DOPE IS HERE NOW AND ALL ARE URGED TO TRY IT.

FACULTY MATHEMATICS CLUB MEETS
KANSAS MUST PLAY
HARD SAYS MOSSE
Victory by no Means Certain—Must Fight All the Way
NOT IN
BEST CONDITION
Three of Men Still on Hospital Squad Washburn Fifty Per Cent Better Than Last Year.
"Kansas will have to play every ene
n of the way to win Saturday," is the
statement issued by the Kansas coaches,
"In Washburn we are going up against
a team fully fifty per cent better than
that which the Jayhawkers defeated
last year. The Kansas team is not in
any too good condition and the Driver
team are convinced that this is their
year to win."
Laying all personal feeling aside the prospects are far from rosy. In the Ichaohot's Kansas will meet a team as strong as the Aggies, who have had the advantage of two weeks' more coaching. The Driver team have spent three weeks in pointing for the contest and are confident of victory.
Plays Under Cover.
In addition Washburn will have the advantage of playing on her own grounds, while the Jayhawker squad many of them new men in football circles will be playing their second game of the season on foreign grounds.
On the other hand the Kansas队 will play with some of their pet plays under wraps, on account of the more important contests to follow. In addition three of the strongest Jayhawks players will be unable to enter the game on account of injuries. Martin, Hatcher and Will probably grace the sidelips.
In weight the Washburn and Kansas lines will be nearly a par. The Kansas back field that will start the game will probably be outweighed ten pounds to the man. Parker, Jackson and Holiday are the lightest back fields of the team. Their speed, however, will gain them ground and in addition are considered the best hole pickers of the sound.
The end positions will be held down by Captian Brownlee and Milton. This transfer of Milton to end may be the means of filling this position, which up to this time been a weak spot in the Jayhawker machine. Milton is a sure tackler and is considered one of the best defensive players on the team.
The rest of the line will be nearly the same with the exception of Burnham's transfer to tackle. Tudor has replaced Danny. Burnham is a game with Groft on the other guard.
No Scrimmage Staged.
With a good bunch of loyal Kansas rooters, the Jayhawk's chance should be improved fifty per cent and every possible man should make the trip. Rooters will leave for Topeka tomorrow morning on the 9:20 Santa Fe.
Go to the Rally.
The last night's practice as usual consisted of nothing more than a light signal practice. Every man was given a chance to warm up in running signals. Martin was tried out at quarter back but it was later decided not to use him for the purpose of resisting a permanent injury that would keep him out of the later contents.
The Kansas line up will be as follows: Milton left end, Weidlin left tackle, Groft left guard, Helvern center, Tudor right guard, Burnham right tackle, Padwall end, Maillir quarter, Parker left half, Holill right half, Jackson full back.
GET AN EDUCATION SAYS DR. PRICE
President of Ottawa University Gives Advice in Chapel Talk This Morning
CHE COLLEGE MAN HEADS
By Statistics Dr. Price Showed What University Work does for Those Who Take Advantage of It.
"The man or woman who think" that one year of college and no University training is enough, fails to grasp his intracitics of the problems of today," declared Dr. Slas Eber Price, a University this morning in chapel.
"There are many things for a college student to consider. In the first place the great number of leaders in the worlds work are college graduates. Fifty-eight per cent of America's public men are college graduates, and thirteen per cent more receive the college training. As the fifty-eight per cent of the one-half of one per cent are leaders in the world, education has a greater monopoly on mankind than mercenary wealth.
"A second thing to be considered is that we live to-day and not yesterday Progress in the last 50 or 75 years has been remarkable. To-day a person must have a different preparation to prepare for the world than a person of yesterday. The main purpose of to-day is to conserve all that is gained in culture, science, refinement and to carry it on. It is our business to conceive new lines of culture, politics, religion, or science, greater, more intricate problems arise, a ndman must have a broader preparation and a wider knowledge.
"Moral conception must have a religious basis to be the deciding sentiment in a person's life. Religion and morals are closely related while a person may emphasize his ethical ideals and not his religious morals, he will find that if he goes out in the world that it is his religion as well as his morals that he will have to build his character union."

COME YE DISCONSOLATE AND BRING YOUR SOCKS.
The darned socks problem soon will fade into the distant past and all the profs will smile again, a smile serene and vast. The slinking undergraduates, afraid to wear low shoes, afraid to show the shining heel may now wear what they choose. And then again, an awful evil causes now to be, because the thing I do to socks is called profanity; and as the W. Y. C. A., is Holy in its plan socks will be darned, and not be damned, as in the case of man. I rest my weary athlete against me, but I am not afraid, I think of something pure, and high, and peaceful, free from care; and take my holy socks, and have them mended by the girls, and save dear father's rocks.
TAKE BOTANY OUT
OF COLLEGE CREDITS
OF COLLEGE CREDITS
Ponce.
To withdraw botany and zoology from the list of high school subjects which are considered preparatory to college work is the recommendation which was contained in the report of the first meeting of the teachers association to be held in Topeka. The special committee of the Zoology round table met late yesterday afternoon and agreed upon the recommendation.
The committee which will submit the recommendation is composed largely of college professors, who teach the subjects named. It is their plan to meet community needs in the teaching of the two branches of science. Personal and social hygiene, home economics, rural and agricultural culture are the suggested subjects to take the place of zoology and botany in the high school course.

MASQUE CLUB PLAYERS
HERSEARING ANNUAL PLAY
The cast of the Masque Club play held its first rehearsal last night. The parts were read over so the cast could get a general idea of the show and matters of importance were talked over. The meeting was a success and the ability shown by the cast was greater than the manager and directors had expected. Although the play will not be staged till December 15 the members of the cast will start their parts and from the enthusiasm and interest displayed they will have their characters well worked out in a short time.
“People may think it is easy to take part in a show,” said Manager Cain this morning, “But it is very hard. If it were not for the exceptional ability of our cast I would not attempt it. However I feel that we can put on this show and make it one of the greatest successes that a play ever had at K. U.”

LAWS BANQUET IN DEAN GREEN'S HONOR
Eighth Annual Uncle Jimmy Day Celebration Held Last Night
MANY GOOD ADDRESSES MADE
Uncle Jimmy, Chancellor Strong and Prominent Lawyers Responded —Affair a Big Success
"Mr. Toastmaster and my boys," said Uncle Jimmie in the final speech at the Utec Jimmie Day banquet last night, "words fail me when I try to express the gratitude which I feel for the kindness shown to me. This banquet does us much good, bringing all together as it does. Let us feel that we are a united body. One of my greatest pleasures in life it to see our students go out over the state and really make good. Boys, I am afraid the time is fast approaching when I will have to say 'good-bye.'"
One hundred and twenty five of "Uncle Jimmies Boys" with moistened eyes, heard Uncle Jimmie bid good-by to the eighth annual banquet in honor of their Dean and the dedication of Green Hall.
Many Good Talks Made.
The dining room of the Hotel Eldridge was decorated with purple, the schoo color, the crimson and the blue, and the stars and stripe. On the wall hung two large pictures of the guest of honor. As soon as the guests were seated, a law quartette composed of "Bob" Campbell, Lawrence Morris, William Cain, and W. othwell Banker sang several songs especially suited to the occasion. The banquet itself was wel prepared and well served.
The Hon. obert Stone of Topeka, congratulated the students that they are obtaining their knowledge of the profession here in the University rather than in a law office. "When you leave school," he subvised, "do not become a lawyer's 'duelling' in some office. Buckle down and stare into, make your own way."
After the banquet Orlin Weede was toastmaster introduced Judson S. West, Justice of the Supreme Court of Kansas, Judge West told the embryonic Lawyers something of the conduct of cases in the supreme court. He emphasized the fact that it is not a one man court and that great pains are taken in making decisions.
WASHBURN IS READY FOR JAYHAWKERS
The team needs support.
Chancellor Frank Strong said that among our greatest men are those who give up the idea of making money and who spend their energy in the molding of lives. As an example of such men, he named Dean Green.
Ira C. Snyder of Manhattan, president of the senior class of the School of Law last year, offered a resolution that the annual "Uncle Jimmy Day" banquet be held hereafter on the birthday of the Dean rather than on the anniversary of the dedication of Green hall. Later in the evening this resolution was adopted.
Short talks were made by Clifford Sullivan for the seniors, A. B. Campbell for the middlets, H. DeLongy for the juniors, Mr. J. Challace of Atchison, one of the older boys of "Uncle Jimmy," Prof. H. W. Humble, Prof. W. L. Burdick, Prof. Wm. E. Higgins, and Prof. Henry C. Hill. All united in expressing for Dean Greer their great esteem and gratitude.
Miss Ruth Davis of Kansas City spent the week-end at the Kappa house.
Expect to Put Crimp in K. U. Hopes Tomorrow
ALL REGULARS IN LINEUP
Every Man Believes he Will Trail
Crimson and Blue in the
Dust.
Topika, Kas Nov. 8, 1912 - Coach Driver's hopefuls were given their last scrimage practice Wednesday evening, when they were allowed to chase each other over a soggy field. In fact, scrimage practice has been decided a side issue in the Washburn camp all week, and the efforts of Coaches Driver and Dexter have been directed toward working out a good defense for any prospective Kansas attack. The varsity received its drill on offense before the tangle with the teachers last week, and has spent the time since on running signals and learning defensive play. As a result the men are in the pink of physical condition, all the cripples are off the sick list and the men have received a good rest from hard work. There is overtraining to make the men go stale in Saturday's game and the hard lesson the Normal administered punctured the over-confidence bag. The Blue will go into the game Saturday determined to humble the Crimson warriors.
All Regulars in Line-Up
Coach Driver has at last put all his regulars into the line-up and has been working them regularly all week, "Cack" Smiley will general the team from the quarterback position, and Captain Tomlinson, who has been out of the game for two weeks will go in at fullback. Lowe and Bearg will play the halfback positions. The line will remain the same as in the last two games, with the addition of McIntosh at guard. The team will weigh close to 174 pounds and there is little room on Saturday. And the beef has kept the locals from uncovering a bunch of speed in their open work and chasing punts. The backfield is specially fast. Lowe, left half, is a ten-second man in track, and Bearg, right half, is a close second. Tomlinson also has speed to spare.
Coach Driver gave his men a lively workout yesterday is signal running. In addition, he sent them into a mock serimimage with the freshmen. Crumbine's first year men were given a sheaf of Kansas formations, showing all phases of the Minnesota shift, to spring on the varsity, and the coach spent his time in showing the regulars how to break up the play. The men were not allowed to take any odd loops, to get into the play. The gait set by the varsity in signal practice yesterday showed that the team was working smoothly. Every man on the squad will go into the Kansas scrap determined to trail the Crinson in the dust.
The student body held a big enthusiasm meeting at chapel yesterday and a big parade was planned for this evening. The college band will be secured and the students will invade the business part of the city for a demonstration. Another enthusiasm meeting will be held at chapel today.
Miss Charine Bray of Wichita will be the guest of Pearl Cox, a junior in the College for the week-end.
Miss Hazel Stiles, '12, of Leavenworth, is visiting at the Chi Omega house.
- Big Rally tonight.
