KANSAS STUDENTS PAY THEIR OWN WAY AT K.U.
Fifty-Six out of Every Hundred Work to Go to State University
More young men and women are working their way through the University of Kansas than through any similar institution in the country. Figures compiled by Registrar George O. Foster today, show that out of every hundred K. U. students, fifty-six pay all or nearly all their expenses without aid from home.
In the fields through the long summer, behind a desk in a store, ploughing or peddling, do some 1400 of these young Kansans labor to obtain those funds necessary to obtain the higher education that the state provides. Each student on registering fills out a card giving this information on his resources and the University registrar has just completed his tables from this data.
"This is a record of which all Kan-sans should be proud," declared Registrar Foster. "It speaks well for the character of the state when its younger generation is so earnest about education. A total of fifty-six per cent standing practically on their own feet as far as finances are concerned is one that I have never seen enued in any institution.
"The cards prepared by the students show that forty-five out of every hundred come from the farm while the majority of the rest hall from agricultural communities scattered over Kansas."

RANKS MEDICAL SCHOOL AMONG AMERICA'S BEST
American Association Places It in First Class of Institutions in Country
That the University of Kansas School of Medicine ranks with the leading institutions of the country was the decision of the Council on Medical Education of the American Medical Association following an inspection of the character of the work at K. U. N. P. Colwell, secretary of the council, notified Chancellor Frank Strong today of the investigation.
The School of Medicine, according to Dr. Colwell, is in the Class A rank, on a par with John Hopkins, Harvard, Pennsylvania and other important training schools for the profession. At a business meeting held by the council December 28, the conditions found on inspection of the University were discussed and the decision was made as to the ranking.
The complete medical course has been established in Kansas but seven years and has always maintained the highest standards. In the fall of 1905, the Kansas City Medical College, the Medicochirurgical College and the College of Physicians and Surgeons were merged into the last two years of the K. U. courses. This was made possible by a gift to the University of lands at Rosedale, where the University hospital and clinic was established.
Mrs. Robert Herrick has returned to her home in Kansas City after a visit with her daughter, Genevieve, a sophomore in the College.

Little Department Grows Several Inches in Ten Years Report Shows
K. U. ATHLETICS WEAR FRANK IS WANTED REAL LONG PANTS NOW BY EAST AND WES
That athletics have fully kept pace with the development of the University along other lines in the past ten years is shown by statistics compiled last week in the office of the Charcottel showing a strength of athletics in 1902 and in 1912.
According to the report, the value of apparatus has increased from $200 to $3,000, eight new sports have been added and a majority of faculty instructors have been trebled.
The location of the gymnasium has been shifted from the basement of Snow Hall to the one of the largest buildings on the campus, a swimming pool that was once built and the locker rooms increased from two to fourteen—a gain of 700 per cent.
Sports that have been introduced in the last ten years are tennis, field hockey, soccer, wrestling, boxing, rifle practice, and swimming.
The number in athletics and gymnasium classes has increased from 150 per cent in handball to almost 500 per cent in football.
The total enrollment in 1902 was 386 men and 170 women, while in 1912 it was 1729 men and 446 women.
K, C, A, C, LOOMS BLACK
ON HORIZON FOR FEE. 10
Old K U. and M. U. Stars on Team Render Outcome of Indoor Track Meet Uncertain.
The coming of the strong K. C. A.C. team, comprising as it does many old k. U. Stars, is making those interested in the track work wonder what will happen to their "hopes" in the indoor track meet on February 10.
"Every man who comes out will have a chance to show what he can do and will be given a fair chance at making the team."
"The K. C. A. C. bunch has a classy aggregation this year" said Coach Hamilton, and it will be a pretty contest. With such old stars as Porter Craig in the middle distances, 'Cupid' Haddock, Don Davis, and Shannon Douglas in the sprints, Chids in the high jump, the Woodbury brothers in the hurdles and jumps and Lee Talbot in the weight events they are enough to cause any conference team to wake up.
VARSITY AGAIN SCORE
OVER HASKELL INDIANS
But Neither Jayhawkers Nor Redskins Showed up Well in Practice Game.
The varsity squad again rubbed the Red man's nose in the dirt Saturday night, when they defeated the Haskell Indians by a score of 41 to 25. Coach Hamilton ran the game in as a surprise to the K. U. men, which accounted perhaps for the slowness of the game. The varsity was certainly not up to form, and even the Indians seemed to have lost their "pep."
Everybody knows "The Old Homestead." It deserves the many years of success it has achieved for many reasons, primarily because it is an active, potent and cumulative influence for good in combination with the entertaining qualities that create and sustain a popular demand for it. At the Bowersock, Friday, Jan. 17th. Prices 50, 75, and $1.00—Adv.
There will probably be another practice game or two this week, similar to this one. Saturday night will see the real first game of the 1943 season, when Kansas meets Washburn on the floor of Robinson Gymnasium.

University of Oregon and Ohio State Dickering with Former Gopher
Coach Frank is in demand. The University of Oregon is corresponding with him in order to bring the ex-Gopher to the Pacific coast as their football tutor. Coach Frank also seems to have the inside track for the position he will coach at Ohio State. The authorities look very closely into his candidacy.
The University of Orego $g$ a member of the Pacific-Northwest conference. If Coach Frank accepts this position he will not be the only Minnesota coach in the Gilmore Doble, another Gopher star is the Coach at Washington University.
Coach Dobie has been coaching for eight years and during that time the teams which he has coached have never lost a game. He has been at Washington for five years and in that time five ever victorious teams uphold the football glory for Washington. Mr. Dobie claims that until he came to the coast the goal line of the teams he had tutored had never been crossed. If Coach Frank accepts the position he will have a harder man to play against than was ever his misfortune in a football game.
TEAMS TO OPPOSE K. U.

Missouri, K. S. A. C. and Washburn Easily Defeat Smaller Colleges in First Games of Season.
Missouri, the Kansas Angies and Washburn, each of whom will meet the varsity later in the season, opened with all three fall seasons Friday night with victories.
The Tigers marched over Central College to the tune of 39 to 24, Bernet at center playing exceptionally fast and deft. The defense at forward also showed strength.
The Agyges, although showing lack of team work, due to insufficient practice, easily overcame Southwestern College by a score of 45 to 24, Coach Lowman using a number of substitutes in the second half.
Washburn was easily the victor over Campbell College, defeating them by a score of 81 to 19 and using substitutes largely.
