PLANS NEW BUILDING FOR TRAINING SCHOOL
School of Education Needs Sepate Structure to House Oread High
If the plans of the School of Education materialize, a new building for the school and quarters for the Oread Training School will be erected upon the campus. Oread Training School has needed new quarters for some time. The rooms now used are rented and are not satisfactory on account of the division they force in the school.
"A movement is under way for the building of a separate building for the School of Education," said Dean Arvin Olin this morning. "Of course we do not wish to interfere with the building of the Administration Building, but we need new quarters badly." The location of the building has not been selected yet but it will be chosen to agree with the Council. Of the buildings that all further buildings placed on the campus be placed with more reference to their harmonious associations.
The proposition will be taken before the Board of Administration for consideration soon and if passed upon favorably will then be put before the
In 1912 Prof. C. H. Johnston, then dean of the School of Education, took the matter before the legislature, but no action was taken. The faculty is at present more hopeful concerning the outlook.
NUMBER 34.
HODGES DECLARES FOR TAX
Governor Says, "I Am for it and Always Have Been"
"I am for the mill tax, and always have been," said Gov. George H. Hodges, at the close of a campaign speech made in the city last night.
"The maintenance of the educational institutions of the state should be taken from the legislature and put on a permanent basis by the adoption of the mill tax amendment to the state constitution."
The first six eligibles to finish the course will make the trip to the Missouri Valley Conference meet and in case that they make a good showing they will be sent to the Western Conference run which takes place at LaFayette, Indiana, on the Purdue campus the following week.
A preliminary cross country run to determine the personnel of the team will make the trip to Ames next week, will be held just before the Oklahoma game Saturday. The runners will cover five miles on the country roads, finishing inside the football field before the game starts.
The race starts from the football field at 2:15 p.m. All the contestants are to appear at McCook Field training quarters at 2 o'clock sharp. The start of the race will be followed by bronze and gold contests. Gold silver and bronze medals will be awarded the first four men to finish the full course.

Carleton Hall of Coffeyville has pledged Kappa Sigma.

PRAISES KANSAS SYSTEM
Model Time Ticket Recommended to Employers by London Magazine
The model time ticket compiled by the superintendent of the department of printing at Kansas, W. B. Brown, was recommended to employers not satisfied with their present ticket, by "The British and Colonial Printer" for designing the model time ticket. A cut of the ticket accompanied the article.
The paper says, "It provides for the four fundamentals of time keeping; who did the work; what kind of work he did; for whom he did it; and how long he took to do. To be a good time ticket it must provide for these essentials, as naturally the total of these gives the day's work."
This system has already been commented upon favorably by the American papers. The Inland Printer and Printing Art recently published cuts of the ticket. Probably the best point about the system is that the work of a job plant and a newspaper can both be recorded on the same ticket.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS THURSDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 29.1914.
TRY QUICKER CAR SERVICE
Twelve Minute Service to Hill or
Trial Three Weeks
Twelve minute service will be tried on the K. U. loop beginning next Saturday and will be continued if a greater number are served by the new schedule. The twelve minute service will be combined by running the cars in one direction only. J. T. Skinner, of the Lawrence Railway and Light Company intends to give the new system a three weeks' trial. If at the end of this time it is seen that a greater number of passengers will be continued indefinitely.
The cars will probably run west from Eighth and Massachusetts streets. There will be no waits at the switches since there will be no passing. On account of this saving of time it will be possible to run five cars onto the Hill instead of four. The new system will enable newcomers in Lawrence to catch a car for the University without delay and will be more effective in handling crowds.
LIGHTS OUT AFTER 12 P. M.
CITY HASNT THE COIN
"When all the lights are out, save he moon, moon, moon," will continue o be the song of those returning from Ecke's and F. A. A. for some time at least, for the city cannot afford to allow the street lights to work during the later hours of the night.
City Commissioner Cleland declares that with the appropriation of $9,300 for lighting the city is taxing itself to the limit and more lights would mean more tax: hence, no more lights.
AMERICAN CHEMISTS WILL
CONVENE AT UNIVERSIT
The Kansas City section of the American Chemical Society will meet in Lawrence November 14. The afternoon session will be held at 201 Chemistry Building. At this meeting Dr. C. F. Nelson, of the School of Pharmacy, will talk on "Osmosis", Dr. G. W. Stratton, of the department of chemistry, will talk on "Chlorophyl" and Miss Agnes Anderson, state food analyst, will speak on the work of the state food laboratories.

The state penitentiary at Lansing has been unable to supply the University with coal this year as it has done for some years. The coal output of the penitentiary has been much smaller this year than last. The University at present is dividing its coal purchases between the Northwestern and the Topeka Coal Companies, both of Topeka.
Mrs. Elgin, of Lincoln, spent the week-end in Lawrence with her daughter, Bernita Elgin.
SAYS STUDENTS DO NOT
APPRECIATE 1914 TEAM
Manager Hamilton Thinks Kansa Has Greater Chances Than University Thinks
"The K. U. students don't realize what a real football team they have in the 1914 eleven or they would get busy and show their appreciation," declared W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics, this morning when asked about the outcome of the Oklahoma game Saturday.
Although the practice last night was not such as to give the coaches any cause of great jollification, the improvement of the regulars on the sick list is such that, with the exception of Lindey and Household, probably he can be seen in the lineup against the Sooners if they are needed.
Gray who was unable to play against the Aggies last week, got in to practice last night and seemed in fine condition. Tony James, the big guard was also out in a suit and although he didn't get to the scrimage he is in condition to get into Saturday's game if David Ruffalo also probably will be in shape by Saturday although Wood will start the game at quarter. Householder's condition is improving rapidly and by next week he is expected to be able to be back again in the lineup.
By using several of the Sooner's pet formations in practice last night, Weildlein's tyre eleven was able to shove the ball across the Varsity's goal line several times. Their team had a slight anxiety as every time more than the allotted four downs were needed to carry the ball across.
COLLEGIANS WILL SPORT
Students of the Big School to Mix tonight

Tickets may be purchased at the

SUFFERING TOO GREAT FOR EUROPE TO HANDLE
A Red Cross unit, consisting of ambulances, medicines, and other equipment costs $16,000. It is Professor Davis' idea that the American people should do its relief work through this organization.
America Must Come to the Aid of Warring Nations' Wounded and Starving
European countries are not able to care for their wounded soldiers and destitute widows and orphans. The ether supply is exhausted and soldiers who undergo amputations of legs are denied the use of an anesthesia machine, the drugs are wondering almighty about in search of food. Little children are staring to death, or dying from lack of attention. This is according to a short talk made last night by Prof. W. W. Davis, of the history department at Kansas, of Kansas, before a group of twenty-five K. U. newspaper students.
Nine women were pledged to Pi Gamma Sigma, the honorary educational sorority, at noon Monday in Mrs. Brown's rooms. Those elected to Mrs. Brown's office Olive Otilia Durkin, Angela Eiren, Virginia Goff, Genevieve Kinney, Ida Mallea Florence Totten, Ethel Ulrich, and Lucille Witte.
"Belgium is a shambles," said Professor Davis, "Germany and France are no better. It is not possible for the countries to take care of its old men and women, and its widows and orphans. The burden of assistance is on them." Western people of war—particularly American people. Western people have asked for peace; a chance is given them to back their demands with assistance for the needy people of Europe. A little threat to those in need of it there will go a long way toward making our stand for peace quite clear."
JAYHAWKER PEP TO RAGE IN FIRST RALLY OF YEAR
Students to Uncork All Enthusiasm in Big Meet in Fraser Tomorrow
The first authorized football rally of the season will be held in the chapel hall in Fraser tomorrow at 11 o'clock. The purpose of the big meeting is to get the students lined up for the Oklahoma game. Elsewhere in this issue of the Daily Kansan Manager W. O, Hamilton tells of the football prospects for the year, and says that the students do not appreciate the chances Kansas has for the Valley championship.
The Men's Glee Club, under the leadership of Prof. W. B. Downing, will appear on the program singing K. U. songs. The team, chances, injuries of players, hopes, and pep of the University will be discussed by Mr. B. Clinton, Mitch Chancellor Frank Strong, and Registrar George O. Foster.
The band will not appear on the program because of an engagement to appear at the opening of the new union station at Kansas City.
CHOOSE SENIOR PLAYERS ON MERIT ONLY—KENNEDY
MaeMurray and Hill, of Department of Public Speaking With Hill Chairman, Select Play Cast
"The tryouts for the senior play will be conducted on a strictly competitive basis," said Duke Kennedy, manager of the production, this morning, and merit and merit alone will be the only basis for any person a part in the cast.
*Professors MacMurray and Hill, of the department of public speaking, and I will have charge of the tryouts next week in Green Hall, and our judgment and assigning of the parts will rest solely on the ability of the persons trying out for the play. In conducting the tryouts, consideration will be taken of four points: voice, general appearance, dramatic possibilities, and suitability for part in the play. The tryouts are to occur in Room 3 of Green Hall at 7 o'clock on Wednesday and 5 o'clock on Friday.
The Professor's Love Story," is the title of the play to be given this year. As the supervision of the dramatics of the University is now underway, Prof. Arthur MacMurray, of that department, will direct the coming production. Heretofore the cast of the senior play has been composed of a few seniors and a large number of undergradsmen, but this year all will be selected for the production.
"The class of '15 contains some of the best dramatic talent on the Hill," said Kennedy, "and I am sure that we will be able to put on a play that will be on a par with work of professionals."
The furnishing of the student organizations of the University with uniform account books, is the result of checking the accounts of the students last spring. James T. Lardner, financial secretary of the Board who did the auditing, found the accounts to have little or no uniformity because each organization had a different system of account keeping.
Ledgers for the use of the student organizations of the University will be furnished free of charge this year, by the Board of Administration. This was the information handed to the office of the registrar, this morning.
ORGANIZATIONS TO HAVE UNIFORM ACCOUNT BOOKS

FROSH REJOICER ATTRACTS
Committee Expects 300 to Purchase the White Triangular Ticket
Small, white, triangular tickets bearing the words "Freshman Mixer, Eagle's Hall, Nov. 4th, '14," are daily making their appearance in increasing numbers on the Hill thus signifying that the first strictly freshman social event of the year is going to be a big success. The committee in charge expects nearly three hundred men out for the mixer, and are making every effort to sell that number of tickets.
Comical Stuff
Prof. H. A. Rice, famous for his funny stories, is slated to amuse the yearlings with a yarn or so; Prof. W. L. Burdick, of the School of Law, will give them some serious advice, and Prof. H. T. Hill, a member of the public speaking department and a man who was a freshman himself not so very long ago, will say a few words in regard to the freshman's attitude toward University life, customs and traditions.
Eats and Smokes
Then there will be eats, smokes, and music in abundance; a harmonious conglomeration in which good-fellowship and a chance to get acquainted with the men of the fresh harvest will be purchased. The Tickle may be purchased from any member of the mixer committee. The admission is twenty-five cents.
JAYHAWKERS WILL WEAR NUMBERS IN SOONER GAME
The numbered suits which made such a hit with the spectators in the Aggie game will be in evidence again Saturday.

He's Uncle Jimmy's Brother
W. R. Green, whose announcement as Republican candidate for county commissioner in the first district appears in another part of the Kansar today, is a brother of Dean J. W Green of the School of Law. Readers of the Kansar will easily notice the family resemblance.
