Pig=Skin Season Opens at Kansas
KANSAS DEFEATS BAPTISTS IN ONE-SIDED CONTEST
Jayhawkers Cross William Jewell Line for 48 Points and Allow Opponents but One Safety
SIXTY AUTOS LEAD PARADE
Many Cars at Head of Line at the Opening of the Football Season
Jayhawk beef and the consistent punting of Lindsey beat down the scrappy little football team from William Jewell Saturday afternoon and Kansas won the first game *el* the season, 48 to 2. It was an auspicious debut for the Kansas team and although the Jayhawk play was ragged in spots, the men waded into the Jewellers with a fighting spirit which fortells better football. Kansas carried out a punting campaign backed up by a wonderful defense which completely crushed the light visitors. Seven touchdowns and six goals were scored by K. U., while William Jewell made a safety in the third quarter.
As the two teams lined up for the kick-off at 4:40 c'clock, the bleachers stood the weight of two thousand noisy spectators. Strother sent the ball sailing over the chalk lines and Kansan linesmen downed Brandon in his tracks. Magill hit the ball on a fumble and the crowd cheered the ball through the Jewell line for steady gains. Wood broke away for twenty yards and then shot across the line for a touchdown—two minutes after

the kick-off. The Thundering Thousand and lived up to its name while Lindsey kicked an easy goal.
After a short panting duel the Jay-hawker hawsers raced down the field again and Coolidge darted through the line for the second touchdown. Lindsey kicked the goal. This was enough for the Jayhawk's rooters. The game was cinched and the wave of excitement which swept across the chattering bleachers before the kick-off subsided. The rooters ran to the boards and watched the teams with interest. The kicking duel between Waterman and Lindsey continued. The Kansans followed Lindsey's longick with deadly tackling. Jewell tried in vain to pierce the K. U. line but every attempt resulted in an interesting pile-up. The two teams raced up and collapsed. Both players and plumed the longest kicks and speciated to their distance.
William Jewell contested every inch of sod and put up an admirable defense but the Jayhawk had pop and easily eluded the visitors. Only once in the first half were the Kansas roosters uneasy. With the ball on the 35-yard line, Brandon shot a place kick at the Kansas goal. The ball went high but the angle was wrong and the leather smacked the goal post. The half ended with Kansas leading, 14 to 0.
Jewellers Spirit Up The third quarter brought a revival

of spirit from the Jewell aggregation. While Kansas gained repeatedly, Wood could not drive his men over the line. With the ball on the ground he could not play for a touchdown, the Jayhawkers were repulsed and Waterman kicked

U. S. MARINE BAND TO OPEN MUSIC FESTIVAL
Uncle Sam's Crack Organization Coming to University October Twenty-second
THROWN IN FOR GOOD MEASURE
Dean Skilton Adds Seventh Concerto to Festival Program but Price of Tickets Remain the Same
The famous United States Marine Band will furnish the opening number of this year's University Concert Course and Music Festival, October 22. Six numbers were all that had been planned, but Dean C. S. Skilton of the School of Fine Arts had the opportunity to secure the national government band, and he placed it as the seventh concert. The price of tickets, however, will not be affected by the additional number.
Uncle Jimmie Predicts Another
The concert course and the spring musical festival have been combined this year and will be one series of concerts with one season ticket for admission. Formerly they were two series of entertainments.
For eleven years students have paid $1.50 for spring festival tickets for three concerts but now $2 will admit them to seven concerts.
The United States Marine Band, is the government band from Washington and generally recognized as the best band in this country. It will play a matinee the afternoon of Opal play a matinee the morning and Madison Joanna Gudzki will give a song recital in the evening.
Madam Gadzki is one of the foremost soprano singers of the world, specializing in Wagnerian operas. Her recital here will include several operatic arias, and groups of German and English songs. Accordionist Rachel Tangerine, singer of Madam Gadzki's standing has never been in Lawrence before.
Albert Spaulding, in the piano world, and Miss Myrtle Elvyn, in the violin world, both young American artists, who have played all over the world, are also on the University program.
String Orchestra Coming
The Zoellner String Orchestra which will be here next March, is a company consisting of the father and his three children, and it has rapidly won its way to the front ranks of string orchestras. It played here since 1962, and was inactive ago, and has toured both the United States and Europe since then.
The festival ends May 6 with two concerts by the Russian Symphony Orchestra. All the members of this organization are Russians. They have been playing in the United States for twelve years. Dean Skilton says that this orchestra is one of the three or four best in the world.
**Girls' Glet Club Tryout**
**Tryout in North College, tonight at 8**
Alpha Chi Sigma gave a housewarming party at the new home at 1614 Kentucky Saturday evening.
Tickets for students will be $3 and $2 for the entire course. The $2 tickets admit to the first three rows of seats on the main floor of the gymnasium, to all seats back of the 20th row on the main floor and to all seats back of the first row in the balcony. An effort will be made to get you to our tickets today. This is nearly double the amount sold in past years, but Dean Skilton thinks the program warrants such a sale.

LOW COLLAR IS SURE COLD PREVENTATIVE
Physical Director Says Too Many Wraps Weaken Power of Resistance
"Colds are not due to low colds," said Dr. Alice L. Goetz, physical director of women, commenting on the present epidemic of colds and sore throats. "On the contrary, the press has reported that cold preventative. It makes women breathe deeply, and the cold air striking the chest brings the blood to the surface, thus stimulating circulation. For my part, I hope the women will never go back to the tight high collisions detained by the present tend of fashion."
"Colds are only to be warded off by increasing one's power of resistance," says Doctor Goetz, "and the way to do it. To take plenty of exercise, breathe deeply of fresh air, and drink large quantities of water."
Contrary to the general impression, Doctor Goetz says that cold do not have their origin in dampness, exposure, cold air, and drafts. They are due to a specific infection. Temperature also contributes by contributing factors. Moderate exposure tends to make people hardy, while bundling up in too many wraps weakens their resistance. Hence the hygienic value of the low collar.
CIVIL ENGINEERING SOCIETY
ADOPTS NEW OFFICIAL PIN
STUDENTS LIKE ATHLETICS

The next meeting will be held in two weeks.
More student tickets have been sold this year than last. The sales in this year exceed those of last year by 140. The total number of books sold is more than the total of its irar's office expects to have calls for at least 400 more tickets.

SEISMOGRAPH WORKS WHEN JAYHAWK WINS
Earthquake Machine Show Two Quakes on Opening Day of Season
Send in Your Office Hours
Saturday was working day for the University seismograph. At 11:30 Saturday morning a slight tremor was noticed and by 11:41 a regular man-sized earthquake was being reported, phases were quite distinct and the line of registration was one of the clearest ever shown on the machine. The general direction and the distance, as computed by Prof. F. E. Kester, show the disturbance to have occurred in the Island of Martinique, West Indies.
All faculty members are requested to send their office hours to the Daily Kansan for publication some time during this week.
Again at 4:31, right in the middle of the football game, another disturbance was sighted. This time it was very indistinct and its distance was determined, though Professor Kester says it was not at Martinique.

Association Stages Yearly Affair— Talks Made by University and Athletic Heads
Respect for property rights, unprofanity, and gentleness characterized the annual night-shirt parade of Saturday night after seeing the Varsity win over William Jewell, 48 to 2 in football. 1000 white-clad men of the University in a serpentine column four blocks long danced the snake dance north up Massachusetts street to the Eldridge House corner, then turned and came back entering cafes, restaurants, meat markets, shows and any other establishment that opened its doors to them.
During the four hours the men held forth on the streets of the city not a trolley was pulled that was not immediately put back, and not a man took more than his share of the treats offered by the merchants of the city. If perchance some thoughtless student attempted such action he was at once *forced to rescind* by his more thoughtful companions.

Lead by Cheer-leader J Barwick

I want to say, on behalf of the Merchants' Association of the city, that it thanks the students for their excellent conduct in the night shirt parade of Saturday night. It especially feels grateful to Cheerleader Jo Berwick who had charge of the men. Under his leadership the parade played like a spectacle the entire evening. The city of the city certainly do not regret the treats given to such sane enthusiasts as those of last week.

for the city streets by way of Adams, Tennessee and Lee. At Wilson's corner they were joined by an equal number of enthusiasts. Then as they wound up Massachusetts additions were made to the cohorts until 1000 students were yelling "Hold that line," dancing snake-like, and making a new regime in the relation to the city and students.
Scores of townpeople came out to see the students in their first big enthusiasm meeting of the year. As the white-clad figures danced up Massachusetts north the crowds surged along the sidewalks in the same direction; and when the students turned at the Eldridge corner they too turned and came back. The best of feeling was shown between the columns entered the dancers. When the columns entered the establishment for refreshments the townfolks stood back and cheered them, for their mannerly attitude in going in and their filled mouths and hands as they showed again in the doorways.
Ends at Midnight
The main columns of the paradra
hold together until near *deboo*
the end.
"I have heard nothing but compliments on the action of the students in the night shirt parade Saturday night," said Chancellor Frank Strong, the morning. "I am very much gratified with it. It is the thing to do. I will help the spirit of the University and the spirit of the city."
and go home with sore feet, tired limbs and a feeling of sufficiency. By 12 o'clock practically every student had left the street and the annual night shirt parade, which always follows the first football game
