Lee's College Inn Box Candies--- Douglas, Wiedemann's and Allegretti Owing to the present necessity of retrenchment in conducting the Daily Kansan, the monthly awards will be temporarily discontinued. The judges will never answer, to criticize the column and to choose ten reporters for special mention. Box Cigars, Pipes and Tobacco XMAS GIFTS To be selected from among 111 Daily Kansan high school reporters scattered throughout the state as the leader for the month of November, was the unique honor conferred this afternoon on Irene Ruggles of Mankato. Judges from the faculty of the department of Journalism awarded her the first prize of five dollars for the best work in the Kansan high school. This is the third Burch of Buffalo and William Jennings Weber of Ellinwood, will receive second and third prizes of three and two dollars. Ten students were given honorable mention. "Say you will meet me at Lee's." The judges, in naming Irene Rugges for first honors, pointed out that the stories submitted by her were more varied in interest than those of any other reporter. Unlike many of the correspondents, she did not confine the news sent in to mere reports of athletic contests, but broadened her scope until it took in practically every phase of student work at Mankato. Files in which to preserve the Daily Kansan will be sent out January first to all high school libraries. Reporters are urged to see that the paper is kept in these files in the building, as but one copy of the paper will be sent to each institution. This replaces the plan carried out last year, of mailing a paper to both the high school and the reporter. DEAN TEMPLIN WILL FLEE: FROM FLUNKERS' PLEAS Dean Olin Templin left last Friday for Branden, Florida, where he will remain until after the Christmas recess, as the guest of his daughter, Mrs. Rankin. Mrs. Templin and daughter Marjorie, will leave on Wednesday to join him. The Dean's trip will partly be a as vacation and partly for the purpose of looking after his land interests near that city. NEW YORK LEGISLATURE MAY LET STUDIES VOTE. An amendment to allow students of colleges in New York to vote in state and national elections, has been submitted by Attorney General Thomas Carmody to the legislature. The amendment reads thus: "Provided that a person qualified, except as to residence, in the county and election district, while a student of any seminary of learning, may vote in an election district in which such seminary is situated and not elsewhere for all officers and upon all questions which may be submitted to the vote of the state, the whole State, and the legislature shall prove to pledge the manner in which, and the time and place at which, such students may vote, and for the return and canvass of their votes in election districts in which they respectively reside." AGGIES BECOME M. V. C. MEMBERS ansas State Agriculture School Now in Valley Athletic Circles The Kansas State Agricultural School was admitted to the Valley Conference at the meeting of the Coaches and Officials of the Conference, at Columbia last Saturday. This was in no way unusual among many followers of athletes of this institution. The farmer boys have had their eyes on the Conference for some time and have only been waiting for a chance to gain admission. In every line of sport the Aggies have been turning out teams, which though not of Valley champions, still remain to make most of their Conference opponents extend them to win. The Aggie football teams can well be judged by the showing of the last Lowman aggregation, which beat the Ichabods in such a classy style in the close of the season. In basket-ball last year's team defeated Kansas on the Aggie court, and in base-ball sprang a surprise on Saturday against games. These and many other records go to show the strength of the Manhattan teams. Coach Lowman, as a result of their admission to the Conference, is trying to arrange games with Missouri and Utah teams in the teams for next year's gridiron schedule. This ruling concerning the entrance of the Farmers to the Valley Circles, will not go into effect until next September, so that their games this season will be played in court, and baselands will not count as regular conference contests. CANADIANS BREATHE JAYHAWKER ZEPHYRS Professor H. P. Cady, of the Chemistry Department, jammed several odd acres of air into a 5-gallon flask today, and shipped it to British Columbia. Owing to the fact that there are only a few liquid air plants in the country, orders come here from long distances. Quite frequently flasks of liquid air are shipped to Nigara Falls, where the air is used in the manufacture of oxygen.
