INDOOR CIRCUS NOW
A VAUDEVILLE SHOW
Plans for Celebration Already Under Way—to be Different
Plans are well under way, and George Babb and Bill Hargiss are already working hard getting up the big gymnasium vaudueville show, the attraction that will take the place this spring of the old Indoor Circus.
Since the Thanksgiving Holidays, and especially since the beginning of the New Year, queries have been coming in to the authorities at the Robinson Gym, questioning whether or not the Gym teachers would pull off another Circus, and give the students another opportunity to watch their fellow classman perform on the mats, the bars, and the rings.
And the Jayawaker lovers of this kind of sport are not going to be turned down. Sometimes in about the middle of March the big show will be staged in the Robinson Olympicium. This year however, the flight departure will be from the orchard and the de facto being titled "The Indoor Circulus," the new bill will be called "The Jayawaker Vaudeville."
And Babb's stunt will be a vaudeville in more than name. For, mixed in between the various gymnastic sketches, will be found monologues and "Song and Dance" acts, that would put the Orpheum Circuit itself to shame. Acting on the well-known theory, that Kansas has more good dramatic performers than any other school in this part of the country, the Gym coaches will give these amateur "Sara Bernhardt'd" and James K. Hackett'a chance to show their wonderful ability.
The "Auderville" will not be for the benefit of the Woman's Dormitory Fund, as has been the case in the years past. The Y. W. C. A. will get the benefit of the Gym show, and all receipts, outside of those kept to meet expenses, are tendered to the association. The prices will probably be 35 cents for reserved seats, and a quarter for general admission.
Babb has a bunch of his men al
ready working out in the Gym twice a week for the big show, and after the mid-semester quizzes, that shift will be changed to daily work. The gym teacher is a man of character of it, and he is trained this method to insure the perfect condition of his performers the night of the big event.
Those underclassmen who were in the Indoor Circus last year, and worked out on the Pike afterward, will do their share toward making this year's stunt a success, a great achievement of a talent has been discovered in a number of freshmen who have done little in this work before coming to college.
Among the men who are working out with Babb are Graham, Jim McNaught, Meller, Dyke, Woods, Pauley and McCain. In the trainer's list, but their names are not being revealed till later in the game.

JAYHAWKERS LEAVE FOR FARMERS' CAMP
Play Aggies Tonight and Tomorrow; Eight Men Make Trip
Late this morning, the Jayhawker basketball squad, eight strong, journeyed down to the Union Pacific depot, and boarded a train, bound for Manhattan. Hamilton's men meet the Kansas Aggies in two basketball games there today and tomorrow.
The team, captained by Lefty Sproull leaves for the foreign battle-ground with good hopes of taking both games, and coming back to Lawrence with two more Conference scalps cinched to their belt. A double victory over the Manhattan Farmers, coming at this time of the race, will make things look more than rosy for the fighting Jayhawkers.
What sort of a team Lowman will pit against Sproull's hopes cannot be ascertained. In a double bill with the Ames Aggies, the bunch whipped so easily here, the Aggies took one game and left the other in charge of their adversaries. They'll have to show better form than that, if they wish to make the race interesting for the Kansas crew.
"The six K men that accompanied Hamilton down to the foreign port were Captain Sproull, Van der Vries, Weaver, Dunnin, John C. Baldwin and this secret slate Slc Cole and Bill Weidlein also made the trip for the Kansas队.
WARNS STUDENTS AGAINST GETTING CAFFEIN HABIT
The result of the first game of the series will be published in tomorrow's Kansan.
Dean Sayre told the botanists about corn oil and its value in dietetics. He also took occasion to uncover the caffeine in coffee and cocacola. According to the dean, these worthy assistants of the midnight oil are "bad medicine" and should be let strictly alone.
Dean L. E. Sayre, of the School of Pharmacy, addressed the Botany Club, at the regular meeting last spring, for Plant Oils not used in Medicine."

All so called "modern" dances are now taboo at the Indiana University through the action of the faculty union. Students are invited to Affairs. Only the waltz, twosep, and Boston without the dip will be allowed.
The University faculty has 220 members, but the number of students to each teacher is larger than in almost any other university.
