600 TICKETS MUST SELL, SAYS DUSTON
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS MONDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 23, 1914.
College Day Manager Declares This Many Necessary to Pay Out
STARTS AT 10:00, MARCH 6
Athletic Stunts, Matinee Dance Banquets, Is Order Of Program —All Is Informal
"No day, no event," continued Mr. Duston, "All who get tickets must get them by Tuesday, March 3. You can go on sale Tuesday, February 24."
"We must sell six hundred tickets to make College Day a success," declared Arthur W. Duston this morning when discussing the undertaking, Mr. Duston is manager of the affair to be given on March 6.
The "day" for the School of Liberal Arts will commence at ten o'clock. From this time until noon athletic stunts between the four classes will be carried out in the gymnasium. Basketball, indoor track, and several novelty stunts which Kirk Hilton, who has charge of this part of the program, does not care to disclose, will be given.
From 3:30 until 6:30 a matinee dance will be held in the gymnasium. A five piece orchestra has been engaged to furnish the music. The orchestra will also furnish music for the banquet. The reception commences at 6:30 and the banquet at 7:00. Edith Cross and Stella Stubbs have charge of the banquet and Orden Jones the dance.
Between courses, readings, vocal solos, whistling soles, etc., will be an integral part.
"Essecerts are not necessary for either the morning program or the banquet," explained Manager Duston. "There is to be nothing formal about it. Plates will be sold at seventy-five cents. This is less than cost, but we expect to make up the deficit with the dance. Admission to the dance and banquet will be one dollar."
WOULD HAVE MORE AFTERNOON CLASSES
Dean Templin Says Recitations Are Too Crowded— Advises Distribution
Because the class rooms of the College are too small and too few in number to accommodate the large number of classes now running it is probable that next year the classes will be distributed evenly through the day.
"Something will have to be done," said Dean Templin. "The rooms will not hold all of the classes. Nearly all of the courses, with the exception of the sciences, which are well scattered, are bunched in the morning and there are too many pupils and therefore too many classes for the amount of room we have. We will have to have fewer students, distribute the classes, or have larger classes."
The plan of having the classes in the morning originated in the early days of the University when classes ran from 9 to 1 o'clock. Since then the general tendency of both professors and students has been to keep the classes in the morning and the schedule for this semester has 201 classes in the morning and 52 in the afternoon. This excepts the sciences which on account of the laboratory work are quite evenly distributed.

CITY IS GOING AFTER K. U. CARD TACKERS

A N ORDINANCE VIOLATED
Attorney For Lawrence Says Transgressions Will Mean a $10 Fine; Acts on Kansen Editorial
Posting bills on trees is prohibited according to James Mitchel, city attorney.
"I am glad some one has made a movement to stop this indiscriminate bill posting," said Mr. Mitchell, referring to the editorial in the Daily Kansas Friday. "In the future, violence of the ordinance is called to our attention. It is up to the people concerned, and information of a violation does not necessarily mean publicity for the informant."
"It shall be unlawful for any person to post any bills, dodgers, advertisements or notices of any kind or character upon any telephone, telegraph, or electric light poles or any lamp post, hydrant, or drinking fountain, or shade tree, or upon any fence, house, or building in Lawrence, without the consent of the owner thereof."

TO HOBBLE ABOUT ROOM

The removal of a large quantity of bone on the athlete's leg, caused by the injury in the Drake game last fall, will not keep Detwiller from the football field. Dr. Outland who performed the operation and who is a former K. U. football star, examined the wound Saturday. "The leg is healing in good shape," he told Detwiller. "I will be greatly disappointed if you do not make two touchdowns against Missouri next fall."
STILL LOOKING FOR MEN
IN THE COOKING BOO1
"We are still looking for the men who were expected to enroll in the home economics course of preparation of foods," said Doctor Ena Day this afternoon. "In other schools there are usually several men who take this work in connection with medicine, or chemistry. In the high schools, the boys often take a course in camp cooking. In England, army and navy cooks are trained in many of the schools.
"The home economics class is very large this term and our new laboratory is in continuous use from 8 o'clock to 10 o'clock until 3:30 o'clock in the evening."
