OUILL. CLUB PLANS
COMPOSITE STORY
The Quill club yesterday decided to venture into the world of fiction by writing a joint story to which each member will be expected to contribute his most cherished plot for vivisection at the next meeting. After this operation, what is still alive will be thrown into the critical crucible and forged into a "Quill Club Plot."
The club also voted to change its regular weekly meetings, Tuesday at 4:30 o'clock to bi-weekly meetings every other Monday at the same hour.
CONFERENCE SCHOOLS OPPOSE K. C. GAME
President Hill Says Sentiment For Special Meeting Is Source
Scarce
Word was received at the University this afternoon that President Hill had put a stop to all discussion by sending a telegram to the University of Missouri just before he sailed for Europe, saying that the game would definitely be played in Columbia, Mo., Nov. 22.
The statement that the Missouri game will be played at Columbia his year, which appeared in the Daily Kansan last night, received official verification this morning when Chancellor Strong received a letter from President Obama, stating that the members of Missouri Valley Conference do not seem to care to have the matter discussed at a special meeting.
President Hill heard from several conference members about the matter and most of them were opposed to the meeting. He did not call one therefore, and left for Europe last week on a train to New York, where he made it plain that the Kansas City game is not desired by Missouri.
The statement in full follows: Correspondence with the Missouri Valley institutions shows that one does not believe that an officer can call a special meeting at this season. Another says it will be impossible to be represented at any meeting held this month and that its officers are definitely opposed to the abolition of the rule requiring officers to be played on college grounds; a third reports opposition to reopening the discussion of that topic at this time, and expresses the hope that it will not be found necessary to call a meeting for that topic when protests vigorously against the call of a meeting for the discussion of that topic at this time.
The Kansas board reports that the request for a meeting was made without forming an opinion as to the desirability of ablishing the rule, but on the understanding that Missouri was anxious to return the game to Kansas City, and as a matter of etiquette since Kansas first proposed the establishment of that particular conference rule.
The Missouri board is willing to attend a meeting if satisfactory time can be arranged, but has not proposed the abolition of the rule and is reluctant to accept the proposal by the part of Kansas that Missouri is anxious to have a change.
Altogether I do not feel that I would be justified in forcing a conference meeting at this time. I have issued no call. In leaving home for two months I must let some one else take the responsibility of forcing a conference, and this rule at a special meeting, but in due time the regular meeting of the conference will be held and a program prepared in advance.
INTER-CLASS GAMES MAKE TEAM POSSIBLE
Drake Coach Solves Squac Problem With Inter-School Rivalry
ONLY 525 MEN ARE ENROLLED
And Just 215 Eligible for Football— Still Griffith Always Has Good Team
Each year the Jayhawkers meet the Drake Bulldogs and one question is often in the rooters' minds after loking over the showing of the Desert Horses. The 1300 students, only 500 boys, most of them ineligible; how do they do it?
In a short interview with John Griffith, the Bulldog coach last Saturday, a reporter for the Daily Kansan put the straight question up to the visitor, "How do you turn out teams like this year after year, Mr Griffith?" Spring training, or night practice?"
"Neither," replied the Drake coach with a smile. "We have a better system than either of those. Our training school is inter-class football.
"You see," said Griffith, warming up to his subject, "Drake has but 1300 registered students, and 800 of those are girls. That leaves us but 500 boys, to pick them from the thunders, for some reason or other, become ineligible. Some have received their degrees, some are graduate students or first year men who have come up to the capital from smaller Iowa schools; some are freshmen, ineligible to play golf; some are restless and the rest are flankers. Now with that array out against you, what can you do?
"We took a census of the men of the university this fall, and found that out of 525 enrolled male students but 215 were eligible for Varsity athletics. Of this 215 we had to pick six, two of which sick too small, or disinclined to play. That left us about 150 to work with. We then divided this 150 into their respective classes in school, and organized class football. The students entered into the idea with zeal. They were wary at first, but they gave the Bulldogs a winning eleven. The classes met, organized their teams, and divided the campus and athletic field off into separate sections, where they could

PROFESSORS SHOCKED BY TINY PAY CHECKS
Results
Salaries Back On Twelve Months Basis—Grief
All members of the faculty who stopped at the registrar's office this morning to sign the payroll, found the amounts far below what they were expected in payroll of the twelve-month basis has again been put on the twelve-month basis.
Last month each member of the faculty received one ninth of his year's salary. His check for October will not only be cut to one-half, but the yearly amount will be the excess drawn last month will be deducted.
The Board of Administration changed back to the twelve-month plan because the budget would not stand the pressure. Since the practice made money from departments which could not be deprived of their appropriation the board was compelled to go again to the old system. If this had not been done the two months' budget was also deprived year's budget. Under the twelve-month system it will be taken from next year's budget.
The following communication was
late this afternoon. Kansan office
late this morning.
To the members of the faculty: The Board feels that as a matter of right and justice every member of this faculty should be paid his salary as he earns it, and if employed for nine months, should be paid in nine payments; but we find that by reason of the manner in which you have been paid heretofore that we have paid off the budget that we about $80,000 per service rendered prior to July 1st, 1913, and prior to the beginning of this biennium of office.
We also find that there is grave doubt, whether under the appropriation act passed by the last legislature, we will be able to use the proceeds of the Robinson land carried in the budget until the same is appropriated to the use of the University by the next legislature. We have also about 20 extra scrutiny this year to the matter and must keep some money in reserve to meet the coal situation, should it arise

It will be Jayhawker against Jayhawker, too, which means some fight. The Aggies are always strong against us, no matter how weak they are. The dope is—they aren't half as weak as they want us to think.

CLARK--VONSCHRILTZ
DUO PUTS OUT ANNUAL
Student Council Declares Two Men Elected Without Vote
Vote
The editor and manager of this year's annual are Russell Clark and Guy W. VonSchriltz. The Student Council announced today that because there was only one ticket in the field for editor and manager of the annual that it passed resolutions at its meeting naming onboarded, an editor and manager, an editor and manager. This gives the officers two more days to work which would have been lost if an election had been held Thursday.
President Holloway of the senior class will appoint a committee to make a personal canvass of the seniors in order that the notes for the annual may be brought in as soon as possible.
Clark will appoint his editing board next week. The Student Council will appoint two other two membres to the managing committee some time this week.
Mr. Clark promises that an effort will be made to give this class as good an annual as any that has been been given. But you must say, "Mr. Voschitz and ravels will do all we can to make this year's annual a success in every respect. If the students will sign the notes according to the plan adopted by the class Friday, the financial aid of the students is requested and our effort will be to make the book the best every published by any class."
Malcolmson-Eaton Marriage
John D. Malcolmson, vice-president of the senior class of 1913, and Miss Lola Eaton, former dramatic star in the University, were married Tuesday morning at the home of Miss Eaton's parents in Kansas City. Mr. Malcolmson is at present in the employ of the Freeborne Rock-crushing Company. The couple will make their home in Kansas City.
Stopped an Election
At the regular meeting of the Student Council last night Russel Clark and Guy VonSchriltz were declared elected editor and manager of the 1914 Jayhawker since they were the only candidates out. Aside from this matter only routine business was attended to.
