the five-dollar annual plan anounced by the annual committee is the Daily Kansan Monday report, and a committee from the Student Council was to manage this year's Jayhawker, was not approved in every detail by the students. The Council night. The Council believed the five-dollar feature feasible and approved of several recommendations for less expense. If did not do so, it assumed a management.
At the request of the Council, Webb Holloway, senior president, has called a meeting of the senior class in Snow hall Friday morning, chaired by Mr. Finkman and arrange for the election of an editor and a manager from the class.
Several facts brought out by the joint Student Council-senior class committee convinced the Council that the financial senior class is definitely assured that management by the council is not necessary or advisable. In the first place 281 seniors received an extent of five dollars or more. At the five dollar rate (which seems to be practically decided upon) every senior will pay one dollar more than he has in past years. This add at least $500 to the
The Council is willing to vote the money taken in from the all-University parties to the Jayhawkfer if the book does not pass the press presentation independent of the University printing plant, who was foreman of the Kansas City print shop which has printed the book for several years, has expressed interest in managing and show him several methods of decreasing printing cost.
with these aids and suggestions the Council decided that a manager and editor selected from a list of the best method of solving the problem.
The masquerade party which was given in the gymnasium last year will be moved to the decision of the Council. It will be given at Robinson gymnasium Saturday, November 1, if the social committee decides no conflicting event date.
Teaches Bible Leadership
The vacancy in the Council, caused by Alfred Kistler's withdrawal from school, led to a cancellation of Hilton over Arthur Dustin and Elmer Clark by a close vote.
Professor Hollins, professor of philosophy is to have many of his education at universities. His leadership is to meet in Myers hall Thursday. He will use Hornes' text on Bible study and all those who are in attendance. This work will be welcome to attend.

The Cooley Club of the School of Law met this afternoon in the assembly room of Green hall. The subject discussed was that of the establishing of free justice or attorneys paid by the state.

The requirements for admission of freshmen and sophomores will be the same as that for any student in the University who has had manuscripts published in publications of unpublished standing, or Oread magazine, is eligible for membership.
This concession does not in any way interfere with former regular membership. The company still required to submit a manuscript to the membership committee.
K. C. GAME SEEMS HOPELESS THIS YEAR
Dr. Hill, Conference President Goes To Europe Stops
Even if both Kansas and Missouri should consent to play the game in Kansas City this year it is probable the game will have to be in Columbia. The conference of governing boards must hold a meeting of Missouri Valley Conference must rescind its action of two years ago when it took the game away from Kansas City and this Board is at present without a president. Dr. Murray (president of Missouri) president of the conference sailed for Europe Tuesday.
Dr. Hill was asked to call a meeting of the organization several weeks ago by members of the Board of Administration at the University but for some reason he had no vice-president, so no one seems to have the authority to call the meeting to consider the matter of taking the game back.
Manager Hamilton said this morning that no contract had been signed with Missouri for the game yet, because the athletic board wanted him to wait until it could take action on the matter.
MAY CALL P. M. CLASSES
A HALF HOUR EARLIER
A resolution calling for a noon intermission from noon until one o'clock, instead of one-thirty, was in favor of the university Council yesterday afternoon by Dean Olin Templin. It was referred to the committee on affairs other than athletic for investigation. The council planned to plan Dean Templin, we have a noon intermission of an hour and forty minutes—from 11:50 until 12:00. Last 180 minutes—from 12:15 until 13:00. The chief reason the change is desirable, I think, is because the hour of evening dismissal would be earlier. In the winter-time class schedule, we have to work and in some of the laboratories delicate work is difficult."
K. N. G. Will Shoot.
In compliance with special orders from the state Adjutant General, the First Provisional Company of the KK Lawrence, beginning Oct. 17. Every member will attend the camp at least one day and shoot the markman twice in heavy transportation and board, will be paid by the state.
"Get The Drake."
There will be a mass meeting at Friday chapel in charge of the Student Council. The program will consist of speeches, cheering, and songs to arouse enthusiasm for the Drake game. All students are urged to be there.

COMMITTEE TO DECIDE DRAMA CLUB QUESTION
One Organization Wants Exclusive Charter—Council Didn't Act
The petition of the Masque and Thespian Clubs that they be permitted to unite, and that no other draughting club should attempt a charter, was read before the meeting of the University Council yesterday afternoon, and was referred to the committee. To this committee also was referred the petition of Ward Hatcher, Larry Kinnear, W. H. Schwinn and another new dramatic club, to be composed of men only.

the Masque and Thepian Clubs are united under the name of the "Hawk," as they have requested, said Cohen, that there will be but a single dramatic club in the school. The Red Domino Club was not re-organized after the "Blue Rose Diamond" was given last year, only two, the Masque and Thepian Clubs, ex sting. What bearing the exclusive charter petition of four members of the charter petitioned will rest largely with the University Council committee.

FELLOWS WILL WORK ON WATER PROBLEM
Industrial Chemists Will seek Method To Soften Hard Water.
The problems of making Kansas hard waters soft is one of the state problems to be scientifically investigated in the University research laboratory. Under a new plan this year experts in state employ work on water studies in state rather than private problems, J. W. Schwab has been employed to carry on the research work in water. Another subject for research will be Kansas salt. E. E. Lyder will make the investigation, and the research will be obtained to investigate problems connected with sewage disposal.
Until this year the laboratory has been in the hands of a number of Fellows who worked for private companies. With the resignation last week of Dr. Kruzan as director of the laboratory the fellowships were transferred to Pittsburg, and the present policy of the laboratory was inaugurated. The lab was elected by the Board of Administration to succeed Dr. Duncan.

KANSAS MAY DEBATE AMES
1913 DEBATING COUNCIL.
The question as to whether Kansas will debate this year with Ames was not a matter of contention. Council last night. Ames has been wanting to enter a word-contest with Kansas for some time, and the Councils are considering a triangular debate with Ames
and Kansas, such an arrangement satisfactory to the Kansas debaters.
A committee composed of Professors H. G, Hill, R. D, O'Leary and C. McDermott selected to select the question to be presented to Oklahoma for the annual debate.
Debates will be held with the same school this year as last. The Colonels will hold a debate here and the Oklahoma debate will be held at Norman. The place for an oral debate with Ames has Miussei if he arranges had not been decide dupon.
UNIVERSITY DID NOT PROTEST N.U. NEGRO
Manager Hamilton Brands Lincoln Star Stories As False
CONFERENCE DECIDED POINT
Ruling That Negro Cannot Play In Games of Personal Contact Would Bar Ross.
"Should Kansas try to make any more trouble for the Scarlet and Cream school the Nebraska athletics authorities, who have become disgusted with Jayhawker tactical deals, not needed in several situations to sever relations with the Lawrence school."—Lincoln Daily Star.
"The athletic authorities of both the University of Kassas and the Kansas Agricultural College at Manhattan have lodged protests with the Clinton, Ross, and Board. The Clinton, Ross, gigantic colored guard, he barred from the games between Nebraska and these institutions."—Lincoln Daily Star.
"Kansas University has a habit of protesting Nebraska football players. Time and again the Cornhuker coaches have received payoffs from Nebraska players and ringers were being used by the southernners but never has Kansas been asked to bar a member of a team. Guy Need has received payment for the team that the Jayhawker team which will take the field against Nebraska is bolstered up in a number of places by players who are not, exactly in line with the Missouri Valley League regulations."—Lincoln Daily Star.
When shown the above statement of the Lincoln Daily Star concerning the question of the entrance of Ross, Nebraska's negro tackle, in the anecdote this fall, Manager Hamilton made the following statement to a reporter of the University Daily Kansan this morning, denying the extravagant claims of Mr. Ross and repudiating many of the statements contained in the article.
Hamilton's statement said in full:
Manager Hamilton said the report
Namssa was using "riners"
this year it too, obscure to require denial.
the University of Kansas has made no formal protest against the football team at the University of Nebraska. As manager, I have not thought it necessary to issue any question about the team because there was an agreement, as I understand, asquiesced in by the Nebraska authorities at a meeting of the southeastern Columbia university last December that negroes should not be used in conference games. We did protest the negroe at the game Lin-Manuel Montoya or may, or reason why he was being used, and Dr. Clapp informed me that the agreement was only in "games of personal soccer" such as football and basketball.
"This agreement was brought about not by the fact that any one team had a new coach, Missouri University and Washington University absolutely refused to play against negroes. The teams are played are played for a so-called championship and it certainly gives no line on the championship to have any players from certain players and then Kansas play the same队 with different players, and that is the reason for an agreement equalizing the condi-
