PEA ESS BEE GETS SEAT ON COUNCIL
Men's Mass Meeting Votes to Give Graduates Place on Board
PLAN PASSES UNANIMOUSLY
Taxation Without Representation, no Longer Battle Cry of Advanced Students: Women Want Votes
The Graduate School will be admitted to the Men's Student Council by practically unanimous vote. This will be a new decision of a chapel mass, meeting decision.
Article 4 of the constitution was amended to read as follows: "The Student Council shall be composed of members chosen by the male members of the different schools from their numbers, the following schools to be represented: The College, the School of Engineering, the School of Law, the School of Medicine, the School of Pharmacy, and the Graduate School. Each school shall be represented by one member for each one hundred students or major fraction thereof, but each school shall be entitled to at least one representative."
Jesse R. Derby, president of the Graduate Club addressed the meeting.
A movement is under way to give graduate women a voice in the affairs of the Women's Student Government Association.
REID'S DRAWING BOARD
LIKE RAJAH'S DIAMOND
He stole it. No, let's say he purplened it. But however you say it that's the way A. T. Reid, the illustrator for the Kansas Farmer, got his drawing board. Six times the board has been stolen. Henry Hutt was the last loser. The present owner--possession is nine points, your teenage years. So Mr. Reid told one of Profession's Griffith's drawing classes. Friday morning on a short visit to see what the young artists are doing. He also made for them a pen and ink drawing of a typical Kansas farmer.
CANNED TOMATOES UNDER
THE MICROSCOPE NOW
POTTER LAKE AGITATION
MAKES SKATING POSSIBLE
To see whether the canned tomatoes placed on the market by the different manufacturing companies are pure is the object of the test being made by Miss A. A. Anderson, an assistant in the food laboratory. Miss Anderson has taken 36 samples of tomatoes canned in the laboratory and is comparing them with the factory article.
They're skating on Potter lake these days. Ice a little bit rough on the sides but the gliding is good in the middle.
One hundred happy skaters tried the ice on Potter lake Sunday, liked it and came back for more yesterday afternoon.
The ice is nearly five inches thick and there's not much danger of a cool, unexpected bath.
List of Summer Courses Soon Ready Catalogues for the Summer Session this year will not be received from the state printer before the courses begin. Students must but a printed list of the courses will be distributed in ten days at the Dean's, Registrar's, or Prof. A. T. Wakeer's office.
Discuss Initiative and Referendum
The K. U. Debating Society will meet in room 313 Fraser hall Thursday evening at 8:00. The question for debate is: "Resolved, That the Government Should Adopt Nation-Wide Initiative and Referendum." D. U. Bonser and J. F. Noonar will support the affirmative, and R. R. Rader and F. N. Anderson, the negative.
The Spanish club will meet at 4:30 Thursday instead of at 4:00 as was formerly announced.
THE GENTLE ART OF HOLDING UP A STATE
The Daily Kansan doesn't pretend to know how much or an appropriation, if any, the Weir school of mines needs; nor does this paper care how much or how little the school asks of the legislature; that is not the Daily Kansan's business. But a bald and shameless threat coming from some of the misguided promoters of the Weir school and printed in the news columns of a Pittsburgh paper last Saturday does come within the province of a student paper or any other paper, and deserves universal condemnation.
After telling of a mass meeting of citizens in Weir, at which money was raised to send two lobbyists to Topeka to support the request of the school for some $200,000 in appropriations, the article says:
"It is believed the regents of the University will make a hard fight against the school of mines. The University is asking for a very large appropriation. Many of the members of the legislature are said to be opposed to the way the University has been managed in the past two years and to be unfavorable to the course taken to block the establishment of the school of mines. This is said to be a pry in the hands of those who wish to use it to compel the University appropriations supporters to go easy in the fight against the Weir school."
Is this an attempt to blackmail the state of Kansas?
"We have the University in our power and we propose to hold it as a hostage until the state gives us what we demand," say these Southern Kansas Raisalis. "We will see that it is starved or throttled until you give in."
To the ordinary student who reads the papers this looks like a learn- game. This state is too big to be held up by threats such as the fire.
We don't know what the Regents of the University think about the school at Weir, but we have not seen any evidence that they intend to fight any school's interests. The citizens of Weir didn't like it because the Board of Regents waited until it was sure of its legal power before establishing the school, within a reasonable time Weir got exactly the kind of school it demanded.
To a student on the outside, the charge made by the Weir people appears ridiculous and the Black Hand methods suggested, indefensible.
K. U. TROUBADINES WOULD TOUR STATE

Pauline Murray."
"I, the manager of the Womens' Glee Club petition the University Council that the club be allowed to take a trip over the state, providing the members of the foresaid club have the consent of their parents, are properly enrolled in school, successfully carrying, full work.
The action of the University Council on the above petition at 4:30 this afternoon will decide whether the people of Kansas will hear the Women's Glee Club. Nearly all members of the Women's Glee Club will plan and the outlook for the first Women's Glee Club ever organized at the University is bright.

The finance committee of the senior class meets Wednesday in Green hall at 7:00 p. m. The meeting is called to discuss plans to reach every student in the University and sell them this year's annual.
Senior Morgans Meet Tonight
Two of the Greenwood County spellers have trouble in the head at present and are unable to train for the coming spelling matches. When a student pronounces "Ruddig" and spells it "u-r-ed-ed-e-d-g" the other fellow immediately says "Wrong," and the Greenwood stude vainly tries again to say the letters that must sing through the nose in order to sound properly. Of course, it is customary to start bear stories from all training camps whether it be football or spilling, but this is no bear story and it may be the means of Greenwood County having to cancel some of the matches or losing the Mozart Club trophy-cup because for women it is not official

WOULD START THIS YEAR
Freshmen and Sophomores Will Discuss Idea at Special Meetings Tomorrow Noon.
That the plan for each class to leave some memorial upon the campus is meeting with practically unqualified approval is shown by the fact that the classes he signs have been given his signified his intention of bringing the matter up at class meetings.
John Reber, president of the freshmen class, and Harry Wilson, president of the sophomore class, have called special sessions of their classes for 12:15 to meet in the chapel and the sophomores in the large lecture room of Snow Hall.
Sophomore Approves Movement.
Sophomore Applies Movement.
"I believe there is no question as to the advisability of developing this plan for each class to leave behind it something to show future classes that others have been there before them," declared Harry Wilson, president of the sophomore class. "We have some good buildings on the hill and a few walks, but what else? Let's get busy."
John Reber, president of the freshman class said that although the idea was new to him he was in favor of investi- gate matters in order to see what can be done.
Senior President Enthusiastic.
WANTS GIRLS TO ISSUE
PRETTY PINK KANSAN
"Our professors sometimes tell us that other classes have been here in former years, but we have to take their word for it," said Elmer Whitney, president of the senior class. "There is little other advice of the fact. The registrar may have records but they are out of sight. It is certainly a deplorable condition, but I believe it can be righted."
Dan Hazen, president of the junior class said that he approved the idea and that it would be brought up at the next meeting of the class.

DEUTSCHE VEREIN
HOCHS DER KAISER
"Editor Daily Kansan: Ascertaining that the members of the fair sex will edit, publish, and manage the University Daily Kansan tomorrow, I rise to offer this suggestion to the sporting editoress, or editorine: why not get out a sort of pink edition de luxe, as it were? As a general editoress are given credit with knowing very little about such crude things as sports, and I think that this would be a good opportunity to get out a real sporting page. Yours for the pink edition tomorrow night, A Fan."

Here's a Lugubrious Tale
This is the tale of a tail of gray fox muff that was lost last week by Miss Bonnie Singleton, a sophomore in the School of Fine Arts. She advertised for the tail in the Kansan but it was either not found, or not returned. This is certainly a sad tale.

BOTH COACHES WILL DIRECT 1913 TEAM
Dr. Naismith Announces Decision This Afternoon After Conference
MOSSE AGREES TO PROPOSAL.
Differences Between Us Co concern
Coaching Policy Only and can be
Patched Up. He Declares.
There will be no change in the University of Kansas football coaching staff next year.
So against the Jayhawk will put up a united front on its old "Beat Kansas" enemies with both Mosee and Frank on the firing line.
This was the decision reached by the meeting of coaches with Dr. Naismith, announced late this afternoon. Coach Mosse stated that the difference existing between him and Assistant Coach Frank had to do with questions of coaching policy and that these could be overcome.
"A good coach by the very fact that he is a 'good' coach has initiative and ideas of his own," said a member of the board. "We had and have two 'good' coaches and it is not surprising that their methods and policies sometimes clash. There was some misunderstanding due to the lack of rapport with Kansan, last night the differences were not mountains, and have been removed for the good of old K. U."
Judging from expressions received at the office this morning, the Daily Kansasan's stand yesterday that both Mosse and Frank should be retained met with universal student favor, and matter was discussed with Couch Mosse and Hoor Society, last night. This solution of the matter was seized upon by all concerned as the best for the interests of the 1913 football situation.
IN THIS CASE DIGGENES
WOULDN'T NEED LANTERN.
Last week he lost a pocketbook containing a ten dollar bill. He advertised for the ten-spot. Melvin Johnson found the purse and took it to the room in the Chemistry building, where the owner made connections with it. Mr. Johnson, himself, has not such good reason for believing in humanity. Last fall he lost a valuable watch, with his name in it, and though he advertised for it, he did not see his watch again.
