UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, NOVEMBER 11, 1914
NUMBER 43.
WHEATON NOW SHOWS HAND FULL OF ACES
The team practiced behind closed gates and will not allow visitors for the rest of the season. Serimimage with the Freshmen will be held tonight and tomorrow. The Haskell Indians will not meet the Jayhawkers in practice this week, but will play on the Orleans training for their game with the University of Louisiana Saturday.
Signal practice and work on the new formations was continued last night on the floor of Robinson gymnasium after the basket ball squad had finished last night. The last night's rehearsal was also secret, only a few members of the basketball squad getting to see the new plays, and these were pledged to secrecy.
Several new plays were given to the football squad yesterday evening and a long signal practice was held. The team went on to play against the on the Cornhuskers and Coach Wheaton is introducing formations which have not been seen in the Valley and unless the Kansas line blows up in Saturday' s match, the new for matitions troublesome.
Gives Squad Some Startling New Formations to Spring Against the Cornhuskers
Tony James, the big lineman, joined the squad yesterday and ran signals with his team mates. The return of James is the best news of the week for the tackle is one of the best in the Valley. He will be in good condition Saturday.
Profs and Fourth Year Men to Mix in Games at Student
SENIORS AND FACULTY WILL BATTLE AT WHIST
A whist contest between faculty and seniors is being planned by the Student Union, the date to be set after the Missouri game.
A committee of seniors will canvass the class for players, and invitations will be issued to those who are interested in the game. Forty-eight whistlers, twenty-four from the old school, forty-nine from the seniors, will take part, the new twelve deck set of duplicate whist allowing that number to play. This deck is intended to obviate the possibility of winning by luck, by preserving the hands and giving them to the other members of the team, one of the games, so that chances are perfectly even and skill only can count in the winning of the game.
PHARMACEUTICAL SOCIETY
ELECTS OFFICERS FOR YEAR
Pharmaceutical Society met in Room 205, Chemistry Building Monday and elected the following officers for the year:
President, Walter W. Wood; vice president, Neva Irving; secretary, Edward Roberts; treasurer, Eugene B Cook.
The society will not have a regular meeting schedule this year, but will meet only when the president sees fit.
May Dismiss Classes
Instructors desiring to attend the sessions of the State Teachers' Association in Topeka on Thursday and Friday of this week, are authorized to dismiss classes for that purpose.
Several new yells have been submitted to Cheerleader Jo Berwick since his call some time ago. The best of these is a "You can, you can" yell. This with Berwick's own "loecomotive" will be used regularly. Berwick has received one yell from Frank Messenger, '13, which is a modification of the nine rahs. This may be used also.
Berwick Gets Yells
Frank Strong, Chancellor
Anderson Gets Cup for Year
The hours of the ten given for the women students of the University by the University Women's Association on Thursday afternoon, in Haworth Hall will be from 2:30 to 4:30 instead of 3 to 5:30 as previously announced. The change is made on account of Dr. Ulrich's lecture.
Anderson Gets Cup for Year
The cup, emblematic of the Golf Championship of the University will be in the possession-of Carl O. Anderson this year, as the result of his victory over Roy Kitchen last Saturday. Anderson won three up and one to play in 36 holes. The match was conducted under the auspices of the Oread Golf Club.
SENIORS CHOOSE EIGHT FOR "PROF'S LOVE STORY"
Part of Cast for Play Selected at
Triple A Lightweight in
Green Halt
Eight character parts in the senior play, including five for women and three for men, were chosen at the try-out last night. Four male characters, among them the male lead, a girl, and another, Arthur MacMurray, director of the play, hopes to announce the complete cast by the first of next week.
"The Professor's Love Story," is the play to be given. The part of "Lucy White," secretary to the professor, will be played by Agnes Moses; "Effe," the professor's maid, by Mary Stanwaity; "Lady George" of Mary Stanwaity; "Ruth Litchen" of the novice; "Idy Lily" of Olivia Olsson; and "Armes Goodwill," the professor's sister, by Mary Belle McGill; "Sir George Gliding" a friend of the professor, will be portrayed by Guy Houston; "Pete" and "Henders." two Scotchmen who are both in love with the same girl, by Jo Berwick and Austin Bailey respectively.
"Professor Goodwillie," the male lead, "Dr. Cosenas," a male heavy, "Dr. Yellowleaves," a character part, and the "Footman" are yet to be chosen. Four men are considered as candidates for these parts, and the problem is merely one of placing them to the best advantage.
LINDSEY WILL BE OUT
OF GAME WITH NEBRASKA
Adrian Lindsey, halfback and punter for the Varsity football eleven, will not be in the Nebraska game Saturday and the burden of kicking the Jayhawkers to victory will rest on the shoulders of Wood, quarterback. Lindsey's knee is still bothering him and it is probable he will not see scrimmage again this season.
With Lindsey in the game, Kansas prospects would be from ten to twenty per cent better because of the importance Coach Wheaton attaches to punting and defensive footoffs. Kansas has made development in Woody's play ever. In the Aggie game he averaged 38 yards and if he can maintain this gait against the Huskers, Lindsey will not be missed.
Thirty-four colored students of the University made merry in Myers Hall last night at the joint Y. M. and Y. W. social. The young men of Conrad Hoffman's Bible class had prepared a program of music and stunts which filled out the evening. A feature of the evening was a song, jazz and music of which were written by a student, Arthur L. Countey.

MAY HAVE HOLIDAY IF WE BEAT TIGERS
Student Council Asks Authorities to Begin Thankgiving Recess at Tuesday Noon
The Student Council in regular meeting, last night voted to ask the University authorities to grant the usual holiday following the winning of the Missouri game. They also request that instead of allowing Monday as has been the custom in the past, that students hold holidays begin Tuesday at noon.
The matter of bringing the Missouri Glee Club here for the big rally the night before the game was discussed but no action taken. Missouri offered to do the same, and the club next year if Kansas was willing to do the same this for the coming game. The custom of holding rallies with the clubs of two schools taking part has met with success in many schools, and is obvious to start the custom with Kansas.
Hereafter all meetings of the Council with the exception of those dealing with cases of discipline will be open to the public, and every two weeks in place of every week.
Paul Dryden was reprimanded for smoking on the campus.

YALE SCIENTIST TO ADDRESS SIGMA X
Prof. Joseph Barrell Wil Come to University Next Week
Sigma Xi will hear its annual big lecturer Monday when Prof. Joseph Barrell of the department of strucure and Yale will appear at the University.
Professor Barrell will make several addresses before the local chapter, the chief of which will be his first "The Bearing of Geology on Man's Place in Nature" This will be given at 4:30 o'clock Monday in Fraser Hall. The theme of this address will be planetary conditions and the influence of geology will take up the contributions of astronomy, geology, biology, palentology, physics and chemistry to the conditions.

attend to students' geology and
mining in (P).
The second of his more important talks will be given in Fraser Hall again at 4:30 c'clock Tuesday. The address will be on "The Environmental Controls in the Evolution of Vertebrates." In connection with the subject he will take up the points of: terrestrial conditions which have promoted evolution, organic factors which have led to the dominance of vertebrates, environmental cause of the rise of land vertebrates, and the limitations on future evolution imposed by lung contours. In conclusion we size the point that the rise of land vertebrates is dependent on fortunate events-rather than the inevitable consequences of life.
At 8 o'clock the same evening Professor Barrill will take up his address on "The Rise of Man in his Place in Nature." This will treat the points: the making of primates and animals, the wellers, the parting of the ways from up to man, and the advances caused by climatic changes.

SENIORS PLAN GOOD TIME FOR COLLEGE PROFESSORS
Senior Mixer Chairman Says They Will Not be Asked to Help Entertain, Either
"As soon as the football season is over," says Joe Berwick, chairman of the mixer committee of the senior class, "the senior men are planning to give a senior-faculty stag. For once in our college lives we are going to have faculty at one of the mixers in some other guise than that of entertainers. There has been too much of an attitude of inviting the faculty to these various affairs only when they are needed to fill out the program and not as good fellows among good colleges; intend to get all faculty out If it is possible and we are going to show them a good time, too."
The date of the mixer will not be announced until after the close of the football season, as plans cannot be perfected until that time.
1.000 SEND AID TO BELGIUM
Students and Faculty Contribute to White Cross Relief Fund
According to the papers that have been turned in to the White Cross committee more than 1,000 students and members of the faculty have made pledges to the fund for the relief of the Belgians.
The committee is now considering the setting aside of a day on which all persons should go through their closets for clothes that they do not care to use longer and are willing to send to Belgium.
After this has been done they can hang out some kind of a sign that will indicate that they have clothes for the committee and automobiles to be carried. They believe that the committee believes that a large quantity of clothes could be obtained.
Members of the committee are anxious to have all those who have made pledges to the fund to call at the office of the Registrar and pay the amount due for the first month so that it may be sent to the central committee and be forwarded in the form of food to the Belgians.
