GET READY TO SHIVER
Spells
Professor Walker Says Gas Wil be Low During All Cold Spells
Many students who did not have their lessons today, gave as an excuse, that the gas pressure was entirely too low last night to furnish enough heat to keep them warm during the process of studying. Then too, even the electric lights went back on their word, and winked on and off at frequent intervals during the evening.
Prof. P. F. Walker, who is the fount of information regarding the gas supply in Lawrence, give; but hard to comment on the shortage.
"The gas supply will always be short and pressure low when there is a cold wave," he says; "and the students who are dependent upon gas for their winter's heat may well practice shiving now."
The gas was entirely off last night in some parts of town, while in those districts so fortunate as to have even a little, the pressure was low, and the heat and light generated unsatisfactory. This morning there was very little gas anywhere, and the shivering students dressed in an array of red and blue clothes troubles last night, the electric light service was deficient, and the light was intermittent during most of the evening.
Wilhelm-Brinklev.
The marriage of Miss Ruth Wilhelm, '11, of Lawrence to Joseph A. Brinkley of Bend, Oregon, was solemnized at 6:30 o'clock last night at the home of the bride's parents, Dr. and Mrs. L. R. Wilhelm.

WASHBURN DOES NOT LIKE W. C.GORDON
Washburn refuses to allow W. C. Gordon to officiate as head linesman in the Washburn-K. U. game at Topeka, Kansas next Saturday. The reason assigned by the Washburn management is, that Mr. Gordon was somewhat lax in his role at that position in the K. U. A-aggie game last Saturday on McCook field. Kansas is now looking for a head linesman who will satisfy the Blue and White bunch.

This is the favorite warning urged by many football coaches in the country to the team on the field. This question has never puzzled scientists for its many causes seemed due to laziness. This condition exists in all colleges and should be remedied.
The simplest way that could be suggested by a coach has never been used or has never been suggested. it is this. Let the team have their molekins covered with pepper. When the opponents charge against them, raise their shoulders and give the opponents the full benefit of a doubt.
Get some pep.
ATTENTION, COACHES! USE
THIS FORMULA FOR PEI
If they do not show pep, they will be able to show pepper.

EVERYBODY DID IT AT THE MASK BALL
Threw off All Formality and Made Affair a Big Success
MANY UNIQUE COSTUMES
Cornhusk Suits, Yama Yama Girl Clowns, Cowboys, Soldiers and Monks Were All There.
Gypsies, Chinamen, soldiers, rubes, hoboes and witches met at Robinson gymnasium last night to celebrate the first annual masquerade given by the Men's Student Council. Over 150 couples attended. The affair was a success from both a financial and social standpoint. Everybody went and everybody did it. Old Jack-O-Lantern was there, peering out from every corner. In the balcony doughnuts and cider was served to the dancers.
Several very unique costumes were worn by both men and women. One copule was dressed in suits made of corn husks. General Cox wore a sign on his back asking people not to butt in. A waiter with a towel solicitously polished the sign. A street car conductor wore the sign, "Take the other car." One man masked so successfully as a girl that he even fooled the doorkeeper and was admitted free.
President Coats said this morning, "We are well satisfied with the outcome of the masquerade. A larger crowd would have turned out if the weather had been clearer, but as it was, we are satisfied. Everybody seemed to have a good time, the principal trouble being to get the orchestra to play enough encores. Personally I never had a better time in my life. Every one threw off all formality and toro lose and had a good me. I think the dance will increase in popularity every year."

COACHES PREDICT JAYHAWK VICTORY
Soggy Field a Big Benefit to Heavier Kansas Aggregation
MANY CHANGES IN THE LINEUP
Heaviest Players to be Used—Tudor and Coleman Play Half Backs—Expect Thundering Thousand
"Playing on a soggy field such as McCook will be by tomorrow, Kansas should defeat the Sooners by at least one touchdown," is the dope handed out by Coach Mosse. "Of coruse the victory will be much more certain if the team is backed by the spirited rooting which helped win the Argie game."
Coach Frank said, "We'll beat 'em, we've got to beat them."
Chances for revenge for that last year's defeat are the brightest possible considering the shape the team has been in for the last two weeks. Stueve is back at full back and with Miller should be able to hold down this spot in the lineup. Coleman will be used as one of the half backs. In the line Bramwell has been transferred to tackle and Daniels will be given the end position left before the opponent. Other tackles as Weidemann is not in the best condition and will be saved for later games.
The end positions will have much to do with the outcome of the game as the Sooners' main strength is on end runs. Coach Brewat at Merrick and Greer at Iowa should team a team with a good pair of ensis could beat the Sooners.
"Bennic" Owens remarked after seeing the Aggie-Kansas game that the Jayhawker ends were too slow. Since then Daniels has been transferred to Bramwell's end and special attentio nhas been given to both Captain Brownle and Daniels. The soft field will also slow the Oklahoma backs to some extent. On the weight proposition Kansas will have to use his bluest beef. Owens' aggregation as Coach Mosse intends to use his blikiest beef. Minnesota shifts and straight line buckles will be the programme for Kansas next Saturday. The Kansas coaching staff are looking for a mud wading contest and will play only heavy men.
Team Given Light Practice.
Team Given Light Practice.
The team was given nothing but a light signal practice last night as the Kansas coaching staff did not wish to take any chance of injuring any of the squad. Despite the snow and slush, the Jayhawker lineup with its added weight reinforcements showed up well on speed in the practice.
No hard workouts be staged until the game. The schedule for today includes nothing but a slight signal practice to limber the men up.
