SHIFT IS BLAMELESS DECLARE K.U. COACHES
NUMBER 48.
Trio Of Nebraska Stars Alone Is Responsible For The Defeat
PLAY TO FEATURE K.-M. GAME
Rumors That Famous Minnesota Shift is Failure, Ridiculous—Nebraska Outshone Herself
Various rumors have been circulating on old Mt. Oread these last two days, coming immediately upon the defeat of the Jayhawker football eleven at the hands of the Nebraska Cornhuskers Saturday. The students, according to the coaches, did not accept as the real cause of the Kansas defeat the Jayhawker football advanced after the game. They refused to accept the commonplace versions of the catastrope Saturday.
And as a result both Coach Arthur Mosse and Leonard Frank feel called upon to quiet the Kansas enthusiasts and restore peace usable积placid Lawrence.
The wonderful playing of Towle, Rutherford, and Halligan were responsible for the Jayhawks' defeat at the hands of the Cornmunkers Saturday. Nothing more important than their expected brilliancy, and as a result they trounced the Kansas eleven. That was all there was to it.
Shift. For K., S. reports.
And for R., K. reported that the Jahawks' former stars who witnessed the game Saturday declared the Minnesota shift a failure, and the cause of the Kansas defeat, there is positively nothing to it. No such declarations were made by any of the Jahawkers' old athletes since such sentiment has reached the ears of each coach. That should be relatively down that rumor which has been floating all over the hill ever since the big game.
And now all eyes are turned to the one grand contest—the greatest game of the season—the battle with Tigers at Columbia next Saturday.
It Worked Last Year
Kansas' policy for that game has not yet been fully decided upon by the coaches. But one thing is certain. The players will go in the game, and from the first moment use the Minnesota Shift. If it fails to work,hampered by any other inclement weather conditions, Kansas may be changed in succession, half, but both Moss and Frank remember with pleasure what sterling service it performed against Brewer's athletes last year, and on former merit, are going to give it another chance.
Team in Apple-Pie Order
Understand, that is not final. The Jayhawkers may entirely revise their play to guard against some unforeseen emergency later in the week, but that policy was laid down by both Coach Mosse and Assistant Coach Frank yesterday afternoon, and from present indications will be the one on which the Varsity will base its play next Saturday.
Team in Apple-Pie Order
The men emerged from the stiff Cornhusker game in splendid condition physically. The long-capped bug-a-boo that one of the prize athletes would lay out such as the prize athletes possessed into the discard, and harring any minor injuries which may be suffered in practice with the freshmen the remainder of the week, the eleven, from center to backback, will go into the Tiger games in excellent shape.
The two regular athletes, Detwiler and James, who were kept from starting the Nebraska game from injury and sickness have improved considerably. It is still doubled, however, especially in Detwiler's case, when he works with the Tigers. James looks fairly good, although he still feels the effects of his recent severe attack of bronchitis.
Line-up is Unchanged
The line-up which will start the game Saturday against the Tigers will be in all probability the same which opened the game again last week. James may be inserted for Hammond, but outside of that the composition of the line will be the same. Tudor and Reber will work at ends, Weisheim and Finkenstein will work at Hammond and Mullor at guard Keeling at center.
In the backfield will be Harl Russell or Bunny Wilson at quarter, Sommers and Martin at halves, and Stuewe at full. Of course, the above list is not exhaustive, and knows what strange whims or fantasies may enter the brains of the
coaches at the last minute. They might decide to work Red Lupton at full instead of Stueve, and the close followers of Jayhawker football would not be surprised, but as it stands now the eleven named above will start the game against Missouri Saturday.
Sacred Concert in Chapel Sunday
A sacred concert will be given in the chapel of Fraser hall next Sunday afternoon in charge of the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. The University Glee club and orchestra will give several numbers and vocal solos by students will also be on the program. All student and faculty members are invited.
CHANGELLOR TO TALK AT COUNTY BANQUET
Students From Linn Plan Record-Raiser Feed Dec. 30
A banquet during the Christmas holidays with Chancellor Frank Strong in attendance and high school seniors as guests is part of the good time which the Linn county club will have at home during the mid-year vacation. At the meeting of the club last night committees in charge of the banquet were appointed by President Melvin Evans.
The club will stage the "get-to-
gather" affair at Blue Mound on the
evening of Dec. 30. Linn county
students in preparing for the feast.
The funds to pay for the banques will be obtained through a seventy-five cent assessment from each member of the club and each alumnus. The proceeds of a basket-ball game between members of the club and some of the county teams will also go into the "eats" treasury.
The banquet this year will be the second which the club has given in Linn county. Last year more than ninety were present and those who had the affair in charge say that enough K. U. enthusiasm was aroused among the alumni and high school seniors to make the effort to give any more of the good time which the crowd is still talking about.
With Chancellor Strong as the principal speaker this year the Linn county students place no limit on estimates of the success of the event.
The committee chairmen are basket-ball, Robert Brooks; banquet hall, Clay Morrow; reception, Marie Madsen; music, John Miller; the committee chairmen will select John Madsen. The chairman will select the other members of the committees. The invitation committee is: Gola Coffelt, Blue Mound; Burnette Bower, Mound City; Wilbur Fisher; Frances Campla, Le Cyrne.
FRATERNITIES FAVORED BY UNIVERSITY DEBATERS
That fraternities and sororites are valuable to the life and activities of a university or college, was the decision reached at the close of a debate at the University Debating Association. A.W. Erison opposed the Greeks and J. M. Johnson and H. V. McCullough defended them.
There will be no meeting of the society next week owing to the conflicting date of the sophomore bum.
"Promissory notes for over $1,000 have been collected from the seniors and more are coming in right along," said Guy von Schrittz, manager of the Annual. "The committees are working and the number of the Annuals will probably run as high as 1750.
PLANS FOR ANNUAL CALL
FOR A HIGH GRADE BOOK
"This is the most expensive Annual yet published," said Prof. Merle Thorns, the journalism department after it was over the specifications for the Annual.
"Specifications for the book have been handed to several printing firms and the exact price will soon be determined."

BIG RALLY TO WIND MEN OF COLLEGE WILL UP FOOTBALL SEASON RAMPAGE AT SMOKER
Boxing, Wrestling, And Music Largest K.U. School Awaken Will Feature Morris' And Prepares To Mix Extravaganza Tonight
To the battle cry of “Pep, Pep,
Pep, Pep,” two monster football
rallies will be staged Thursday evening
at 8 o'clock in Fraser hall and
Friday morning in front of Fraser
hall. Even with the defeat of Saturday
and that of two weeks ago, the Kansas
team is up strong and the ranks of
the rooters are being strengthened
rather than diminished.
The rally Thursday night will be the biggest football meeting of the year. The ticket sale will start Wednesday morning. They will announce for the small and insignificant sum of fifteen cents ($15). An overflow meeting may be outside if the walls of Fraser hall refuse to hold the multiset of foals everybody and everybody is expected to be there.
The program includes speeches, boxing bouts, wrestling matches, the Glee club quartet and "Swede" Wilson and his banjo.
Friday morning the annual annihilation of the Tiger will take place on the campus in front of Fraser hall.
RUSSELL SELL BEQUEST
TO AID KANSAS CHILDREN
Financial assistance from the Russell-Sage foundation will now enable the department of sociology in solving public welfare problems.
"A playground director should have a salary as large as that of the superintendent of schools," Professor Burgess said today. "The work of directing child recreation has been done in many Kansas cities." The department at the University has received requests from Kansas City, Wichita, and other cities of Kansas for recommendations in welfare problems, but these appeals have always been neglected because they are not included in the funds to do the work. Now we expect to go into the problems of each city with a full force at work."
HOLD YOUR BREATH NOW;
YOU MIGHT NEED IT LATEP
The crowd will continue to struggle up the hill about 1:20 every afternoon; at least until the next meeting of the University Council. Then it may puff and hold its side while it toils up at one o'clock.
At the meeting of the University Council last week a committee consisting of one man from each school reported in favor of changing the hour of beginning from 10 a.m. to 1:00, but the council laid the recommendation on the table until the next regular meeting.
Prof. E. W. Burgess, of the department of sociology will spend part of his time each week for two months, in Topeka, where he will make a complete investigation of social conditions, especially the way in which school children spend their play time.
The Chancellor will attend along with Coach Mose, Professors Putnam, Thorpe, Hill and Van der Vries. Coach Mose will oure "Old Mizzou" and Professor Putnam will orate about English athletics.
The get-together spirit, which of late has pervided the atmosphere of Oread, has at last permeated the reserve of the College and tonight at Eagles' hall at 8 o'clock with big eats and lots of smoke, the College men are going to get-together with a will.
A new lot of yells, yells just for the College, will be submitted and tried out.

YOU'RE ON THIRD-NOW SCORE, GUILD URGES
Topeka Minister Talks Baseball To Students And Registers A Hit
Baseball burst forth in chap this beautiful spring morning and Roy B. Guild of Topea scored a hit. There were few in the bleachers and less in the box seats, but the player looked out over the yawning space before him and made a home run. His batting average had not been sufficiently advertised to the students or they would have stayed for the game.
Roy B. Guild is successor to Dr. Charles M. Sheldon at the Central Congregational church in Topeka, a leader in the Men and Religion movement, and chief worker in the new social survey in the capitol city. He played against K. U. on the Washburn football team several years ago.
This morning he read a newspaper baseball story entitled "Get Home From It." Morris had been up to him to reach home. The score was tied. The thousands in the bleachers watched him anxiously.
"To get home from third is the chief business of every one of us," said Mr. Guild. "The college graduate has reached third. He or she may have reached there because someone was behind them. He may have reached there by his own efforts. But if he doesn't get home from third he falls in the eyes of the whole training to is develop the habit to get home. Get the habit to score, for the failure of the college graduate is conspicuous. We need the men who car make third and score."

USUAL NUMBER FLUNK OUT
SAYS DEAN OLIN TEMPLIN
"There are about as many this year as in the years past or as there will be twenty years from now," said Dean Olin Olm emmeyer, overseer of a query regarding the number of "flunks" in the freshman ranks.
"The grades given out at the end of the first six weeks are merely a checking up, a warning to both students and faculty. Of course, some students find the work a little too hard at first and we have been compelled to withdraw a few from some of their classes. Some are failing but all have the chance to redeem themselves."
