THE AGGIE GAME
The football team is facing a bitter struggle in its game with the Agricultural college Saturday. The Aggies have one of the strongest eleveens in the history of the school, while the Red and Blue warriors are not in the best possible shape for the contest. All indications point toward a hard fought battle.
Under such conditions a little thing may be enough to turn defeat into victory or victory into defeat. The team will do its part, we may be sure of that. Let us see to it that we do ours.
Some criticism has been made of the quality of the rooting in the games already played. This would seem to be rather premature. A need for rooting has not arisen yet. When it comes, the Kansas spirit will not be lacking.
When touchdowns are being piled up at the rate of one every five minutes there is no occasion for rooting. It is a different proposition when the Jayhawkers are fighting under the shadow of their own goal. Let us hope that such will not be the case Saturday. But, if it is, the Thundering Thousand will have ample opportunity to do its share in winning the game.
In the past, there have been evidences of something approaching ill-feeling between the Aggie rooters and the Kansas supporters. It matters not where the blame for these unfortunate episodes lies. The Manhattan students are our guests and should be treated as such under all circumstances.
The women at the University of Wisconsin are asking for a woman's athletic field. The Kansas co-eds are going to receive "Ks." When will we have a feminine athletic field?
TIRED OF IT?
It seems that there is to be no end to this student ticket controversy. Yesterday, petitions were being circulated asking and protesting various things and were gathering a good many signers.
In the opinion of the Daily Kansan these petitions will have absolutely no effect on the extra dollar for the Missouri game or on the price of athletic tickets in general.
Because it takes money to run athletics at the University of Kansas, and because of the specific agreement whereby the Missouri management gets seventy-five cents for every student who helps pay for a reserved seat with a students' ticket, it is hardly reasonable to expect the Kansas management to do other than carry out the plans that have already been arranged for.
Of course it is possible to write to the Tiger camp and explain that the students of Kansas object to paying a dollar for a seat in the rooters section, but that would be somewhat distasteful and humiliating, to say the least.
The queer part of the whole matter
that the students seem to blame the athletic association. And really they are placing this blame merely because the association is struggling to get funds enough to exist. It has been explained that the students' share in the expense is only a drop in the bucket. But upon all sides one can hear denunciations of the manner in which athletics are run in the University of Kansas, and long-winded speeches about the old enterprise tickets that cost but three dollars.
"Then," they say, "we paid for our ticket and had no more thought of it as we knew it was good for any game here."
And they talk of the days when the game was played in Kansas City or Thanksgiving Day. Thanksgiving Day meant a visit home for most of the non-resident students, and it was but a little more expense to go home by way of Kansas City and see the big game.
When the game was taken away from Kansas City, it was understood that the salary of the coaches was to be paid by the State. At present the Athletic Association is paying $3,900 to this end. Is it then the Athletic Association's fault that this money must be raised in some way?
Can the Association do other than act as they are doing?
It seems to the Daily Kansan that it cannot. The trouble is that the old game at Kansas City, which was an enormous source of income to both teams, has been done away with and nothing given to take its place. Consequently, Kansas must be skimpy with the students.
In the olden days there were no complaints from the student body about the game being played on a foreign field. The Thanksgiving Game was the greatest athletic tradition Kansas ever had.
The students, be it said to their credit, did not abolish it. It was abolished, however, and the abolition was applauded by these same men who did the abolishing. The students were silent.
The question now stands, are they going to remain silent, or are they going to make an effort to have this ruling that puts an extra burden upon the students reconsidered?
The result will show whether students' wishes have any weight, or whether they are governed as children, with their amusements and actions mapped out for them.
The freshman young women can hardly be expected to sell the most tickets to the Marine Band concert which will be given a week from tomorrow.
Dean Crumbine suspects mosquitoes of carrying paralysis. This Mr. Mosquito seems to work overtime as regards carrying things.
The small part of the campus which surrounds the wing of the Administration building certainly is not being given a fair chance. The grass wants to grow but unthinking students who believe that they are saving time insist on trampling out the struggling blades. The next time you cut across the campus in front of the Administration just think of the K. O. T. G. sign.
The "Ask Me" committee that is being formed may be expected to explain how to tell the time by the electric clock in the library.
Twenty-eight questions were hurled at a class in journalism this week. The instructor might just as well have made it twenty-nine and asked why 1912 happens to be leap year.

The University 'Daily Kansan last week had a big scare head about Rats at K. U. that seemed likely to raise the hair, but it referred to the other kind being used for dissection—Peabody Gazette.
The students who have the management of the Daily Kansan, published by the students of the University at Lawrence are to be commended for their judgment, for just recently they were offered $750 for three thousand inches of advertising space in their paper, by a New York firm for advertising their wares which consist of cigarettes and liquor—Green News.
The University Daily Kansan, published by the students of the state university at Lawrence want a reporter in each high school in Kansas. Peabody high school should appoint a person. Three prizes are awarded each month consisting of five, three, two or one prize written each month. The first award will be made November 5.—Peabody Herald.
News item- Prof. Walker of K. U. has concluded a series of tests proving that the standard gas meters used in Kansas are truthful.
When the pressure is low and the gas bill high, in the wintry weather so lightly prized, it's a pleasure to know that the seeming lie of the festive meter is truth disguised.—Cherryvale Journal.
