Rather an unnecessary question after that Nebraska game. The rooters are proud of the men of the red and blue, and at the station yesterday morning, the Kansans gave vent to an expression of school spirit the equal of which would be difficult to find. Even the girls overcame their natural reserve and broke into patriotic song. And really, Nebraska was whipped. The record of first downs made shows that more plainly than any other argument. She felt all along after the first quarter that she was whipped, and her rooters sat silent as if dazed. All credit to Frank the Nebraska captain, for his wonderful run, but there was a circumstance that hindered a Kansan from tackling him, and that was the fact that one of the officials was unable to get out of the way. The Kansas team lost, but in losing they won, and here's hats off to that same team, the team that will overwhelm Missouri. The Nebraskans were literally played off their feet by the lighter men from Kansas, and in the last three or four minutes of play, luck broke in their favor, and turned their defeat into a victory. Uncle Jimnie's hunch was a good one, and really the Jayhawkers feel that the team made Nebraska appear foolish. The debate question has been sent to Missouri. Which may cause a premature discussion. After the game Saturday, is there any sensible student or faculty member who can deny that there is such a thing as a "jinx?" HOMECOMING. Thousands of old grads are expected back at the end of this week for the express purposes of seeing the Tiger get the annual twist to his tail, and of mingling with the undergraduates; in short to be a student again. For some, this will be the first visit since graduation. For others this may be the last visit. But however it may be, it is up to the students to see that the visitors are properly cared for. Lawrence will be full to overflowing, and it is going to be a great problem to get accommodations of any sort. It is likelly that there will also be a lack of seats, and that some may have to view the annual struggle from the hill-side bleachers. But the greatest problem will be the housing and feeding of all these alumni. Every student ought to be willing to do his share, and let his room be occupied by visitors while he seeks a bed with two or three other students in another part of the house. A canvass is being made of the rooming house district of Lawrence in order to ascertain how many rooms will be available. When your house is canvassed, see to it that every room that can be spared possibly is turned over to the committee. This is the first test of a home coming every other year, and unless everything is managed in good shape, and unless the alumni feel that they are heartily welcomed by the student body, it may be the final test. And it will be no hardship to anyone. Kansas is sure to beat Missouri, and who will want to go to bed. And what student could possibly object to sleeping three-in-a-bed on such an occasion? Looking at the first downs made, the Stiehm Roller seems to have been mostly whistle. "Captain Frank Doped to Cause Jayhawkers Oodles of Grief," says headline last week. Why should a headwriter go outside of his regular routine work to prophesy? The Lawrence postmaster can't decipher Greek letters that stand for frat houses. He should search the attic for old books dealing with the subject. Study of bacteria in ice cream is just now engrossing the attention of the dairy bacteriologists of the experimental station at Iowa State College. A FACULTY-STUDENT SMOKEB At the University of Michigan, the plan has been adopted of having the faculty and the students get together at a sort of smoker held in the Union building every Sunday afternoon. The idea is certainly a good one, and one which ought to be adopted at Wisconsin in the prosec or arrangements can be made. In a large university even more than in a college—the gulf between the members of the faculty and the students is often so great that the most unfortunate clashes of interests frequently arise merely because the groups do not understand each other as they ought. There being no Union building at Wisconsin, it would perhaps be impossible to adopt the Michigan plan without some alterations. Moreover, there would, perhaps, be some objection to holding this affair on Sunday afternoon, since, in that way, they would conflict with the addresses given under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. We think, however, that the Union should be the body which takes up this matter of bringing the faculty and the students into a closer relationship. Of course there are some difficulties which must be met and overcome. The most important of these would probably be the inauguration of the scheme, which at first might not meet with the proper support from both the faculty and the students. Many of the members of the faculty are so burdened with duties that they might find it inconvenient to attend these smokers, while the students might feel a certain constraint in being present at such an affair. We feel sure, however, that this difficulty would soon be overcome, and that a greater harmony between the faculty and the students would grow up as a result of the innovation of this idea. At any rate, we firmly believe that the plan ought to be given some trial, for the desirability of a closer relationship can be denied by no one.—Wisconsin Daily Cardinal.

SOCIAL CENTER WORK IS POPULAI "The social center work which was started recently under the direction of the Social Service committee of the Y. M. C. A. is proving contagious," said Roy Stockwell, secretary of the University Y. M. C. A., this afternoon. "Our first work was in the Kanwaka school district, six miles west of Lawrence. A call has now come to the committee of which Asher Hobson is chairman, from a neighborhood a mile and a half south of Lawrence. They feel the need of a social center and have solicited the aid of the University Y. M. C. A. A meeting will be held in the school house of that district, number 6, Friday evening, November 22." A call for resistance has also been received from a community four miles east of Baldwin. Fine Line of Fall and Winter Suitings. KOCH, Tailor CLARK, C. M. LEANS LOTHES.
