Barratt O'Hara, lieutenant-governor of Illinois and a former Chicago newspaper man, James Melnin Lee, director of journalism New York University, T. R. Williams managing editor of the St. Louis University Blackmer will lead the discussions on the following questions:
Is not the public so dependent on the Press for its social and civic welfare that newspapers ought to be dealt with as public utilities? First: Should not the state protect its citizens—as it does with respect to those who practice medicine or law—from untrained and unscuprallous men by (1) Passing on the qualifications of those who would enter the newspaper field, and (2) Establish a Fair Play Bureau with complaining newspapers; thus keeping on the professional character of those in whose hands rests the well being of society? Second: Should not the Press protect itself by requiring its members to subscribe to a code of ethics?
All the sessions of the National Conference will be open to the public. Students and faculty especially have been invited to attend.

KANSAS WINS LAST
GAME ON M'COOK
Jayhawkers Defeat Tigers in Pitchers' Battle by a 4 to 1 Score
Missouri Couldn't Couple Wit!
TIGERS GET BUT FOUR HITS TO SHOW AT 2:30 AND 8:30
Smee's Offerings—Angerer Touched for Five
Kansas won the last baseball game on McCook field this season when pitcher George Smee got the best of the Missouri twirler, Angerer, yesterday afternoon, while the Oread sluggers scored four runs. The final was 4 to 1. It was a pitcher's battle from start to finish. Smee hold the digger to four hits while the ball was touched for five. Both teams fielded accurately and the game was one of the best of the season.
Ability to hit in pinches gave Kansas the victory. Bishop's single, Chinney's homer and Smee's single drove in all the runs for K. U. The Missourians had seven hits and the Tigers seemed to bounce away from the Tiger's claws.
After three scoreless innings, Kansas started the agitation in the fourth, when DeLongoy deposited the ball in the right side of the field and scored the runner. Missouri came back in the next session when Woolsey tripled and scored on Woody's single. Kansas forged ahead in the second part of the fifth chapter. Chinnery tore loose and smashed a homer to the left field fence. He made the circuit and the bench when the wiltached home.
Captain Bishop took three strikes in the seventh but his last attempt was at a wild one and Catcher Hall missed the ball, Bishl landing on first. Painter and Bishop both were safe on a fielder's back, as he sacrificed sacrifice admitting Bishop to third and Painter to second. Pitcher Smee decided to cinch his own ball game, so he poked out a single scoring Bishop and Painter.

SKETCHES VOLUNTEER MOVE

Charles G. Hounshell, traveling secretary of the Student's Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions, gave a brief historical sketch of the organization in chapel this morning, pointing out the opportunities for students in this line now.

The new number, it seems, will be called the "Owl" in honor of the junior society which is getting out the ball and putting to "know all, hear all, and hoot all."
One of the editors dropped some copy on Adams street yesterday afternoon and this copy found its way into the Daily Kansan office. It is written on asbestos and the writing glows like phosphorous.
If the rest of the sheet is like the part found the Owl will be a corker. to say the least, "Professors Full" or "Full" online, and other reads, "Squirrel Nut Cracked."
At a late hour the Post boy ad-
admired that he was "to sell to
girl."

STUDENT INJURED IN CYCLE COLLISION
Myron Johnson's Leg Is Broken When Run Into by Motor
Myron Johnson, a freshman in the College, had both bones of one leg broken just above the ankle and John Cunnick, another freshman in the College, had his chin bish bruised in a motorcycle accident that ooed front of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity house at 7 o'clock last night.
The accident occurred when Johnson attempted to regain a ball that had lodged near the middle of the street. A street car was in the middle, an automobile on the right, and the motorcycle ridden by Cunnick and Frank G. Benedict on the left side of the street.
The motorcycle was going at a high rate of speed and as Johnson stepped out into the street it crashed into him, breaking his leg and dragging him for some distance. Both men were thrown into the street, but only one of them sustained other than a good shaking up.
Johnson had a good night's rest and seems to be getting along very well.
