G. U. UNDERGRADUATE GETS INTO INORTAL LES
Prof. Render's Mistake Gave Jerry Risley a Place Among the Ten Greatest American.
According to a press story sent out this week by the Department of Publicity a Kansas University undergraduate ranks high among the ten greatest men of American history. The historians have not yet entered the name of Jerry Risley in their immortal pages but when the university released its history of his country ascribed to him by the University they will doubtless hasten to correct their error at once.
The name occurs in a list of the ten greatest men in American history compiled by Prof. F. H. Hodder, of the American History department. Jerry Risely, a University sophomore, is ranked between John Marshall field and Justice Supreme Court, and Alexander Hamilton, secretary of the Treasury.
There is a chance that Prof. Hodder did not intend to give Mr. Risley this high rank. In fact, all indication show that the name was entered on the list through no desire of either the Professor or Risley.
Risley was the reporter assigned to write up the story from Professor Hodder and in the methodical manner of young reporters he placed his name on each sheet of copy to prevent mistakes. The copy reader forgot to mark the name from one sheet, and the printer, unacquainted with him, did the rest.
Jerry Risely's fame may be short lived, but for once he is placed with the immortals.
DR. NAISMITH TO ORGANIZE.
A UNIVERSITY BOXING CLUB

The club will not start to work immediately but after the Thanksgiving vacation active instruction will begin.
A. students wishing to join the elub can hand in their name to Dr. Naismith or sign their name on the application card before the bulletin board in the Gymnasium.
ELECTRICAL TO SEE
LARGE KEOKUK PLANT

On Saturday afternoon the Cascade luncheon was held. Miss Short of the University of Kansas responded to the toast, "Cascade Ozone."
The plant at Keokul, when completed will be the largest Hydro-electrical plant in the world. The dam is a mile long, and 200,000 horse power will be required to operate it. It was made at this time as the students may witness the actus' work of construction.
The plans are not complete, but it is probable that a special car will be secured. The journey will occupy the greater part of a week, and the great stress the Mississippi, now being constructed, will be thoroughly inspected.
The Y. W. C. A. held its regular meeting Friday afternoon, at 4:45 o'clock. Miss Laura Radford, the W. W. C. A. secretary of Calcutta, India, spoke for the girls. Miss Radford is a K. U. graduate of '94. Miss Huffman sang. Tea was served before the meeting.
DR. JORDAN TALKED AT VESPER SERVICE
Continued His Lecture of World Wide Peace—Music Was Good
David Starr Jordan, President of Leland Stanford University, continued his lecture on "World Wide Peace" yesterday afternoon at the first Vespar service of the year. He began his address by describing the horrors of Napoleon's army in its retreat from Moscow and told how one only-fifth of its number came staggering like ghosts into the city of Berlin.
"Those men were the flower and buck bone of France," said Dr. Jordan, they came from the schools, the shops, and the farms of France. Where is that noble strong type of manhood today? That war literally drained the very sap of the industrial and intellectual life of that nation.
"Where is the stalwart type of men so characteristic of England? Look to the halls of Oxford and find the names of those heroes who perished in the many wars of England and there you will find the answer. Look in the cathédral dorsals of the old cathedral, find the answer in the long rows of muble vaults where the heroes lie."
Dr. Jordan pointed out the fact that our own Civil War had taken away the great minded men the type of whom he wanted and in the universities of the East.
