JAYHAWKERS READY TO GO AFTER AGGIES
Must Take Both Games to Clear Road for Championship Team
TWO STARS ARE OUT OF GAME
Greenlees May Start—Weaver Had Little Hope of Getting In Fray Starts at 7:25
The Jayhawker basketball five is ready for its big game of the month staged tonight with the Aggies and from present indications, the coming battle will be the best tangle floor of the Robinson firm this year.
Out of the two games played with the Farmers at Manhattan, the Kansas team took one and dropped the other, and, in order to successfully pass this hurdle and still have the road to a championship team clear ahead of them, Sporroll's five will be forced to take both games of the series played here tonight and tomorrow night.
Manager Hamilton feels fairly confident over the chances of his troop against Lowman's hops. With Greenweer and Weleaver in perfect condition there seems no doubt that Kansas could swamp these manhattanites, among others of Manhattan's condition, and the other entirely out of the game the chances, on the whole, are not quite so prosperous.
It is not yet known whether Greenlees will be in good enough shape to put on a suit, and appear on the floor for the player's possible that an injury of the kind of a broken rib would permit his reentrance into battle so soon, but Manager Hamilton may have him on the floor ready for battle, and, if the capable guard similarly fit, he may play in the game.
Weaver looks sure to get into the fray sometime tonight. His injured ankle, sprained on the recent Manhattan trip, still bothers him, and he hurt it a little Wednesday night in practice. He got off the field of the Jayhawker fortunes, to see the big center battling in the game, at least in the second half.
But in case neither of the regulars can get into action tonight, in Cole and Weidlein Hamilton has found two of the most efficient substitutes ever seen working on a Kansas squad. Bath athletes are big, and look good in play. Cole is newer, the game than the football team, which has learned many of the tricks of battle since the first fall practice. Weidlein has never looked so good as during the past week's practice.
The game will start at 7:25 p. m.
sharp.
NUMBER 86
The Aggies seem to be in good enough condition. Lowman is slightly worried over the defeat of his hopes by the Washburn Collegians, and argues that this shows a slump in their work. But Lowman or whether this is the latest Manhattan bear story, will be seen tonight.
The line-up:
Kansas      Agries
Spurrel, C.  R.F.    Shull
Van der Vries L.F.  Broberg
Cole, or Weaver  Leonard
Weidlein   R.G.    Root, C.
Dunmire   L.G.    Jones
MONKEYS AND CHICKENS
TO EDUCATE STUDENTS
Monkeys, chickens, and white rats will be used the coming semester in the course in Comparative Psychology and Animal Behavior. Heretofore the white rats only have been used in different tests of intelligence of animals by the psychology department and the new additions of subjects will enlarge the course considerably.
OFFERS NEW COURSE IN
SCIENTIFIC FRENCH
The French department announces a new course in Scientific French to be given next semester. This course will be found in the schedule as well as in the equation for French III. It will consist of French scientific and periodical readings.
Chancellor to Topeka
Send the Daily Kansan home.
Chancellor Frank Strong went to Topeka this morning to attend the regular meeting of the State Board Education of which he is a member.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 30, 1914
TWENTY-FIVE TRYOUT FOR HAWK CLUB PLAY
Twenty-five would-be Sotherns and Marlowes exhibited their talents before the Hawk club's committee of examiners in Room 110 Fraser Hall last night endeavoring to convince the committee of their eligibility in the club's play which will be given this year.
Clarence Sowers, chairman of the committee, will probably call another meeting tonight when the final selectionations on the cast will be given out.
OPPOSES DIVIDING THE HISTORY GROUP
Dean Templin Says Breaking It up Would Defeat Aim of Education
"The breaking up of Group VII of the College Schedule would defeat the aim of a college education," said Dean Olin Templin, when asked his opinion on the subject. The aim of a college education, he explained was to give a broad general cultural training. If more than half the pre-teen number of hours were taken in one group this education could not be given.
Asked if he thought vocational guidance whereby a student would place the naming of his courses in the hands of the head of the department in which he wished to major would offset the difficulty incident to the "sixty hour limit" the Dean thought that it would. But if it were to be adopted he should advise the guidance from the freshman year instead of the junior as proposed. Dean Templin explained that Harvard, Michigan, and several other eastern universities had tried giving entire election of courses in the colleges, but had been forced to give it up because the students would take only those studies that especially pleased them. This lead to specialization, destroying the broad aims of the college.
CHANCELLOR PROVES THAT HE CAN SING
At Y. M. C. A. Jubilee, Men Hear Doctor Strong Warble of Former College Days
The Chancellor can sing. He proved this last night at the Y. M. C. A. Jubilee where he sang two old Yale songs and pleased the large audience he met and his him. But not to be outdone the crowd later in the evening did the singing business up fine and changed the party into a real old fashioned song from "Crimson and the Blue" with the Straw" and other old favorites.
Soper, who was scheduled to box being vaccinated could not participate in the bout and his station was filled by Blackman. Blackman and Warren boxed three rounds but no decision was given. Reid with several good readings held the attention of the crowd in great shape.
Dog sandwiches and apples were served for refreshments.
Because Warden McClaughrey could not speak to the students this morning, the chapel services were postponed. The next assembly of students will be held during the first week of the second semester.
A piano solo will be given by
Claire Dietrich, a violin solo by
Joseph Urhamh and several selec-

Final Examinations begin Jan. 31.
TO  AID  GROWING  INDUSTRY
EXAMINATION SCHEDULE
Chancellor, Prof. E. Haworth, and Superintendent Paul Tector Send Out Invitations to Sessions
"An interesting program will be prepared for the two days meeting, covering industrial, technical, scientific and artificial subjects, with proper discussions of all papers presented. E. W. Howe of the Atchison Globe will give an illustrated lecture in the University Chapel the evening of the 16th to which the delegates are especially invited. Iverson C. Wells, editor of Brick and Clay Record, has started to press the meeting "The Open Price Policy" on "Creating a Local Demand," each subject being very timely. T. A. Randall, editor of "The Clay Worker" and secretary of the National Brick Makers' Association, has also consented to be present and address the meeting both formally and informally.
A State Clay Products Association, composed of those interested in developing the clay products of Kansas, will be organized at the University, February 16 and 17. Chancellor Frank Strong, Prof. Erasmus Haworth, state geologist, and Paul Teetor, superintendent of the clay test laboratory, will send out invitations to the sessions to all citizens interested in the industry.
The meeting will be attended, not only by owners and proprietors of the landlord, but also by superintendent, yardmasters and others connected with the industry.
"In many states in our Union wherein clay industries abound the clay workers have formed themselves into state associations for their mutual benefits and pleasures," said Professor Haworth this afternoon. "Iowa Wisconsin, Illinois, Ohio, and a few other states might be especially mentioned for their very active clay workers' associations."
"During the last few months we have made a few preliminary investigations by letter and by personal interview, and have learned that many of the clay workers and those interested in ceramics in Kansas feel that Kansas, like other states, should be maintained at the level which should be the general betterment and stimulation of the clay industries of the State.
Life-saver and joy-to-the-quarantined is the latest role played by the Daily Kansan these days down at the Kappa Sig house where small-pox keeps a score of impatient students from preliminary baseball practice and quiz week preparation. "How do you ever stand it?" the
marooned ones were asked yesterday.
"We don't, decidedly," was thi emphatic reply.
"But our one joy is the Kansean; we live in anticipation of its coming. We read every word of it, ads, editorial page and all."

ORCHESTRA CONCERT ONE GRAND SUCCESS
Dean Skilton's Artists Score With Semi-Classical Program Last Night
The Eleventh Annual Winter Concert of the University Orchestra was held last night in Fraser chapel room and was pronounced, by its audience, the best concert ever given by a University orchestra.
With a thirty-six piece instrumentation, Dean Skilton, the director, presented a varied program of operatic and semi-popular music with very pleasing effect. Probably the most selections from the Peer Gynt Suite, by Grieg, and selections from the Operatta "Sweethearts," Victor Herbert. These pieces brought great applause and showed that a University audience can appreciate classical as well as popular music. Special requests should be given the orchestra for its brilliant work in these numbers.
Miss Marguerite Villepique, cornetist, came in for her share of the applause with a cornet solo, "The Dancing Girl" with an orchestra accompaniment.
Prof. Joseph A. Farrell, of Kansas appeared in an Ania from the Open to a New York University
Carl Busch's arrangement of "The Old Folks at Home" was a very pleasing bit of harmony work by the stringed division of the orchestra.
Dean Skilton feels that his orchestra is just now getting on its feet since he now has a full instrumentation of artists of some experience. His next concert he promises to be better yet. The University should feel proud to have such a coming orchestra as this and should turn out at the next call from the leader for a concert.

UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
MAKE GOOD CREDITORS
University students make good creditors according to data gathered in the study.
A report made therein carries the following commendation of the credit of the students: "University students are considered good pay by the merchants. The credit rating of the fraternities and other student organizations is higher than that of the individual students."
COLLEGE SOPHOMORE TO WHISTLE NEXT SUMME
James A. Butin, a sophomore in the College, from Fredonia, received the news today that his services as a whistler and entertainer were desired at a very attractive figure by the Redpath-Horner Chautaqua Company for ten or twelve weeks work next summer.
He whistled with the Mandolin club last year and has appeared at many of the entertainments where his work has always been good. He is a member of the concert companies and will undoubtedly succeed in this new line.
BILL INTRODUCED FOR
NATIONAL UNIVERSITY
The establishment in Washington of "The National University of the United States" is the aim of Representative Fess of Ohio, in a bill he introduced January 17, asking for an initial appropriation of $50,000.
The measure provides that the institution be supported by Government and individual donations. Its objects would be to advance science and the fine arts, to train men and women in technical and public and private service to cooperate with the Government's scientific bureau, and to work in conjunction with public and private institutions of learning of the country. The President would be empowered to name a board of trustees and they would be authorized to accept gifts from any "legitimate source."

AND NOW TO FURNISH THE STUDENT UNION!
Committee Plans Scheme to Lighten Financial Burdens of Members
CLASS OFFICERS ARE PUSHING
Presidents Promise to Appoint "Help Along" Committees—Students All For The Plan
"In order that the financial burden on the students may be as light as possible we are working up a scheme to pay for the furniture with which they will have membership fees," Chairman Kennedy said today. "It would not be fair to ask this year's students to pay for furniture that will stay with them permanently. All they should pay is the rent and up keep expense."
Now that the location of the Student Union has been selected at 1200 Tennessee street the Union committee decided to face the problem of furnishing the house.
The committee says it is not yet able to give out the details of the plan [for good] education.
Student opinion seems to be as strong as ever for the Union: A few short interviews picked up on the campus this morning follow:
Fairchild president of the Skull and K: "I am strong for this movement. It will provide a place where open discussion of all matters may be started, and all questions pertaining to student life discussed."
Donald Harrison, freshman class president: "I like the whole idea. The proposition should be boosted. I will appoint a committee to confer with the general committee and help all it can."
Harold DeLongy, president of the middle laws: "I am certainly in favor of the plan, mainly because of its democratic and get-to-goher spirit. Many new ideas will be gained by open discussion of matters, such as a place like this would afford."
Avery Olney, president of the College: "This is a good proposition, giving the students a place to go where they may have a good time and get acquainted with new people." Webster Holloway, president of the senior class: "A club for the students, that's practically what the Union amounts to. It looks as if the plan is going through this time."
Liesd Dodd, president of the Men's Student Council: "The proposition is moving along nicely. We have made arrangements with the negotiation team and the negotiations are going on whereby we may get 'urnishings for the place.'"
