The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Kansas; to go further than merely provide a place for students to learn, to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to leave more books to be shared; to in all, to serve to the best of its ability the University of Kansas. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1913. If the senior class is as sick of the annual proposition as the rest of the school, it will get busy this week and decide this matter, once and for all. Seniors, let's all get out Friday and get somewhere. Consider finally whether it means anything to you or not to have a class book this year. Ask yourself if you will feel the need of a book that will recall the memories of your college life when you are away from Mt. Oread. We do not believe there's a senior on the hill who honestly believes he will be satisfied to go away this year without taking with him a 1914 Jayhawker. Let's all attend the meeting and get the book started. WANTED—A COLLEGE DAY The next thing needed, as soon as the band gets new uniforms, is a College Day. In the past the College has not been very well represented in the big things on the hill largely because it has not been organized. More powerful than any of the other schools, the College has stood back and seen Engineers and Laws get the honors politically and otherwise simply because its strength is not properly utilized. A College Day similar to Engineers' Day, with appropriate ceremonies, will help create unity in the largest division of the University. Out motto: a College Day. ALL ABOARD FOR BASKET-BALL CHAMPIONSHII Fifty men out for basket-ball practice. Sounds rather good doesn't it? Captain "Lefty" Sproul should not be satisfied with anything less than a championship team this year. Here's luck to you, "Lefty." JINGOISM IN "DOPE STORIES" One regrettable part of the rumored protest by Kansas of Ross, negro guard on the Nebraska football team, is that what a private matter between the athletic associations of the two schools is being "butted into" by outside papers, putting Managers Hamilton and Reed on the defensive on a question which goes behind mere conference rules to race prejudice. The matter of Ross playing in conference games involving personal contact was discussed at the last conference meeting, according to Manager Hamilton, and to all intents and purposes an agreement was reached. If the agreements of a conference meeting are of any strength, why must the two universities suffer from jigoistic "dope stories" from irresponsible sources? Let's have hands off and leave the matter to those who have the power to decide and who know what they are talking about. DUST AND THE DEVIL One thousand churches in Kansas have been abandoned, on account of the automobile. This is something to cause us thoughtful persons to think. Personally there is nothing we like better than to think. We often do. It has a strong fascination for us. We have been in Kansas. We might as well tell all: We have lived in Kansas. But we are now trying to lead a pure and noble life. The Kansas roads are the driest in the world. Somebody has put so much sand on them that you can't eat a piece of pie out there without using a whisk-broom When a person orders a piece of pie, he is supposed to return the broom to the nail. Persons carrying off the lunch-counter broom are shot at sight. to be lamented that the automobile in Kansas is driving out the church. It ought to be bringing it in. There ought to be a church for every automobile in Kansas. There is no greater field for church work than among men who have to climb under an automobile in Kansas and speak to the gearing. There should be some way of making it necessary that every claustrophobic minister student and making it compulsory for every man who drives his own car to attend every Sunday morning and lead at the Wednesday night services. Together on this and We thoughtful people must get together on this and think.-Judge. A Frosh—If I don't get a clock, I'll have to hook my watch. What do you think I can get on it? A Nother - U, body. The First - Only five dollars! Why, this is a French — A Nuther—O, about five dollars. The Second—I know but it keeps time in English doesn't it? Daily Illini. Daily Illini. COMMUNICATIONS. (Communications to the Daily Kansan must be signed as an evidence of good faith, though not necessarily for publication. The column is open to all Daily Kansan readers). Editor Daily Kansan: In Monday's Kansan "L. U." makes a complaint concerning smoking in the McCook sections reserved for the K. U. ladies. If such occurred, the complaint is indeed justified. But I beg to submit that the apparent implication of neglect of duty by the National Guardsmen stationed at those sections is not so justified. They kept a lookout for smoking, and suppressed all they found in those sections. The three "ESCORTS" must have kept their pipes and cigarettes rather low. If "L. C." goes to the game next Saturday, the K. N. G. undertake that she will not be annoyed by smoking escorts, even though it be necessary to post men at every row, and escort the smokers to the gate. However, "L. C." must not expect us to use perfectly good guns on such escorts; they—the guns—are issued for use in a different line of duty. —SEARGENT, K. N. G. A fresh cadet went to his class, He was all avoid of fear— He sat upon a peaky tack, And cried, "Attack in the rear." Daily Illini THE GAME BALL-FOOT There was a sharp blow winding, As the rooters seated their toks, But old "Enos" wavered never Nor did he side to either look. All Oskee-wow-wowed holler, So crowded was the frantic. That worry ever one did— Lest a suffered should be panic. But when the start did battle, And the ball ailed in the raise; The team over got quickleyed, The feeling that they had dozed, They fielded right down the shove and push, Teamed on the other stomp. And touch-downed ninety and nine mades, And winner home the romp. Daily II SQUELCH THE MUCKER. Daily Illiai. One or two indiscreet and unthinking individuals can creat a false impression. In Friday's game this might have been the case, when a few persons of very low calibre would yell slightly on the work of the officials and cry "bonehead" at the work of both officials and players. Now, this is not the "Texas Spirit." and the sooner the individuals who persist in this practice stop this the better it will be for them, for the roosters who are following the impulses which prompt a gentleman and create the "Texas Spirit" will not be slow to put a stop to it. Even if a decision looks close, you need have no far that the team and coaches are not watching it; if it is unjust you can rely on it that they will protest in a legitimate way. A man on the field can see the plays better than you in the bleachers or grandstand. We have started the season right by treating teams courteously; squelch the mucker who would by his own selfish priggishness create a wrong impression. The rooters can do it and it is for them to maintain that very real thing, "Texas Spirit." "B. SQUARE." —Daily Texan. Stude—Do animals reason? Prof-I prefer not to dogmatize on animal psychology —Daily Illini. Just a Hint They had scrombled through the first dance on the program and he was leading her back to a seat. "I could die dancing, couldn't you?" he asked. "No," she replied. "There are pleasant ways than being trampled to death." -Cincinnati Enquirer. Just to Oblige. "The doctor says I must quit smoking. One lung is nearly gone." nearly gone. "Oh, dear, John. Can't you hold out until we go enough coupons for that dining-room rug?" —Washington Herald. We hold that it was an illogitant for "Slooie" Chapman, whose trousers were stolen at the gym to run down the street in his B. V. D.'s and pass himself off as a cross country runner—Daily Illini. Press Comment College Has Begun 'D'ye make a living writing? "Yop, writing father." Cornell Widow. Last week it was 22 years since I journeyed to Lawrence and first enrolled at the University of Kansas. This week my oldest son enrolls there. The contrast comes forcibly to me. I was a few months under 22 years old and he lacks nearly as much of being 18, but I had to come up to that entrance through waters of tribulation, privation and hard efforts, without aid in any material way from anyone. Yet my profound conviction is, that no sympathy should be lost on the fellows who have to bear the burden unaided. Their probability of making good is almost infinitely greater than that of the fellows who have not had to struggle. It is the fellow who never had to meet an adverse tide, that has my sympathy. For the poor student I have only admiration and expectation—Luray Herald. TUNEFUL WICHITA Wichita has the distinction of furnishing four of the twenty men, who will make up the Glee Club at Kansas University this year. Clarence Sowers is manager of the team and also a second tenor. Leo Fitzpatrick and Francis De Mand, both freshmen this year, have been chosen for first tenors. Guy Houston, who sang with the club last year, will also be a second tenor—Wichita Beacon.
