CAPTAIN HODGINS
DIES IN NEW YORK
Captain William Hodgins of the New York police force, the father of Wm. Lottenham Hodgins, a special student in the School of Engineering at the University, died of heart failure in New York on Oct. 17.
Capt. Hodgins was one of the oldest and most highly respected member of the police department in New York and his loss is keenly felt for the city. He had been a member of the force since 1886 and a captain since 1893.
The dead captain was a former Kansan and the Topeka State Journal has to say the following in speaking of his death:
"Hodgins was a loyal Kansan in spite of his success in the East. He was a member of the Sunflower society of New York, and was having his son educated in Kansas University."
Wm. L. Hodgins left last week for New York to be present at his father's bedside when he received word that his condition was serious.
NEW DIRECTORY IS
READY FOR PRINTER
Edward E. Brown, secretary and purchasing agent of the University, says that the personal lists of the new directory are about ready for the printer. The faculty lists are not quite completed yet, and very little information has been received from the various organizations of the school. It is desirable for these organizations as well as the directory names should be found therein, with the intention of concerning their officers and their headquarters. Mr. Brown also wishes to have the names of the various class officials in the new directory. It will be some little time before it will be out, but there will be no more delay than is absolutely necessary.
MODEL CONSTITUTION FOR COUNTY CLUBS
Student Council Has Prepared a List of Articles for
Organizations
Owing to the large number of county clubs being organized, the Student Council, at the suggestion of President Coats, has prepared a constitution for county clubs which will be available to anyone free, as a model for such organizations. The constitution prepared so that all University required officers, publicity, and standard organizations can be easily handled.
Club presidents can get the sample constitutions by applying to President Coats.
NEW COURSE IN BOXING
Coach Frank to Teach "Art of Self Defense" in Gymnasium.
Boxing is a new course to be offered by Coach Leonard Frank of the physical training department. He gave the first instructions in the art this morning. His intentions are to up his arm of prizefighters but rather to develop in the men the ability to spar neatly and to defend themselves.
A regular boxing class will be selected later on after the football season when the coach will have more time to devote to the class. It may be that bouts will be matched later on if sufficient talent develops and if other schools have boxing classes desiring a bout.
The course is open to all students of the University. At present he is giving instructions to the sophomores only.
The University of Wisconsin has established a course for the study of the high cost of living. Just another refutation of the old adage that ignorance is bliss.

Fair and colder tonight. Tuesday will be fair with a rising temperature.

"BILLY" JUMPING AROUND TALKING FOR THE WOMEN
We've always heard of him as "Billy" Morgan, and not Mr. W. Y Morgan of the Hutchinson "News," and ex-Regent of the University. So we nearly forget to act dignified Friday morning when the managing editor sent us around to interview "Billy."
On the way to see him our Freshman mind tried to 'think up some clever approach with whom to get a good story from him. We pictured a column interview filled with short-grit wilt and brilliant, search questions that revealed the daring perseverance of our classmates. The commending words of the managing editor were already in our prominent ears.
But our neural processes wouldn't work at all until we overheard someone say, in the crowded corridor of Fraser hall:
"Billy Morgan? Oh, 'Billy' Morgan's great dope."
Ha! A clew! Sherlocka do Monk for this "great dope!"
We found the genial "Billy" up-
stairs radiating short-grass optimism
UNIVERSITY IS GOOD SAYS PROF. JOHNSON
"We're going to send up a special car of rooters to the big game," were his first words when we tentatively mentioned football. "And we tried out oil burners in our heating plants out in "Hutch" last winter and found them pretty unsatisfactory. We're going back to coal beetle under the rain in his winter. Besides, the oil burner smudge up the lace curtains so the women won't stand for them any longer.
Moral Standards Here Higher Than in Other
among a crowd of suffragists, and approached him with suave cleverness.
Schools.
"Education is not something to which you should add morals," declared Dean Johnston, "but morals are to be obtained as a part of educa- tion. Each of us should institute an intellectually stimulating standard. Most men do not have the nerve to examine themselves to find out their exact moral state."
"There is a tendency among students to take a 'moral holiday' during their university life. They are apt to dismiss certain responsibilities which they have felt under home influences and which they expect to assume as college education. We need an organized student life program against this laxity in moral life. We must have a clearer, a more definite, program of life.
That a moral should never be detached from a mental problem, was the keynote of the address by C. H. Johnston, dean of the School of Education, at the meeting of the Y. M. C. A. Sunday afternoon in Myers hall.
"What am I doing here? Oh, jumping about the state talking for the women. Someone tried to bluff me out on going out in behalf of women suffrage; so I up and took the dare, and here I am."
A copy of the 1912 Jayhawker will be placed in the library of every Kansas high school. Today 175 copies were sent out over the state, and the state commissioner, H.D. Johnson, state high school visitor.
"The moral standard which exists at the University of Kansas is higher than in any of the other schools and it is yet far from where it should be."
"The Price of a Life," was the title of the lecture which Professor Trettian presented at the Uitarian church yesterday and at the Presbyterian church he had evening. Professor Trettian explained fact that as we conquer we take on other peoples diseases. Each profession has a disease which accompanies it. Even society has its disease. Great work has been done to remedy this disease of society. Professor Trettian is continually visiting prisons, asylums, and similar places where social outcasts are confined, in order that he may better understand the great problem. He told of investigations which he had made, and the manner in which conditions should be reminded. The entire talk was very interesting and greatly appreciated by his audiences.
“They're waiting for you downstairs,” some one said; but we got to share the hand of the man who held the door and Jawkayer in Europe" before he left.
For the last two years no Jaya-hawkers have been distributed, but the custom has been revived and will be continued. The purpose is to give high school students an idea of University life and organization.

WASH COAL TESTS
SHOW BIG SAVING
The figures for the tests will be given out the first of next week. The tests show the difference in amount of ash and amount of energy produced, between the washed and unwashed. It is estimated that at least $5,000 will be saved from the Lansing mine alone, by this process.
The coal is first crushed then placed in a large sluice box containing a system of screens. Water is forced through these screens and the shale which is mixed with the coal sinks the bottom and the coal stays on top.

Twenty-five Men Out For Berths on Cross Country Team
Prospects are very bright for a winning cross country team this fall. Judging from the nightly performances of the men, Kansas should at least finish among the leaders in the coming Missouri Valley meet at Columbia, November 9th. At present nearly twenty-five men are taking nightly jogs under the leadership of Captain Patterson, and Edwards of last freshmen team. Both Patterson and Edwards are performing in great style and will probably be the nucleus of the team. Edwards will be remembered as the sensation of last year's meets in the distance events.
Kansas will have an Inter-Class Cross Country meet November first, and from this the six best varsity men will be selected to represent Kansas in the conference meet.

OPEN PLAY WORKS HAVOC WITH KANSAS
Drake Backs Were Fast and Shifty With Forward
Simon, McHenry, Bunz, and Captain Lansing, the Drake backfield quartette, were in a great measure responsible for their team's victory over the Jayhawkers at Des Moines last Saturday. These four backs, at least two of whom will get places on the all Missouri Valley team, tried the Kansas line to no avail but when they speeded up to go around the end there was always a gain for the Blue and White team. Added to this Simon was an adept at the use of the forward pass and gained much ground for his team in this style of play. Simon's classic toe also booted the ball far and away ever time the fighting Kangan's pushed the oval into Drake territory.
"The Drake team was fast, shifty, and better in open style of play," said Coach Mose after the game. Then the injury to Hatcher at the game took some life out of the team. "We have to go to come to beat Manhattan today. I consider the Aggies as hard a proposition as Drake."
Hatcher and Stueve Out.
The game at Des Moines, while not a bad defeat in any way, was a disastrous one for Mosses's team. Hatcher and Stueve probably will not be able to play again this season. On the first play Hatcher's shoulder was torn out of place and the ligaments and muscles pulled loose. He was taken from the game before the teams uped for the first scrimmage. The accident happened at the kickoff. Tudor went in for Hatcher and played a good game.
"Butch" Stuewe was the next unfortunate. He had hardly played half of the first quarter when he emerged from the pile after one of his fierce plunges with his knee hurt. His bulkback's knee has been bothering him some time and it was the old hurt that was torn open Saturday. Stuewe may be able to get back in the game in time to play against Missouri.
A Kicker is Found.
The Kansas team has been weak in the kicking department this year but Saturday's game shows up a punter who should make the best artists in the valley hustle. Burnham is the man and when he punted in the Drake contest his kicks went high and for good distances. With a little training the big guard should be an adept in the art. Burnham, a tower of strength in the line, is playing a consistent game.
That Drake was well informed about the Kansas formations was evident in the way they shifted for the Jayhawk attack. There was hardly a play made by the Crimson and Blue team that the Bulldog forwards were not ready for. This fact hampered Kansas considerably.
The team that faces the Manhattan Aggies next Saturday on McCook field undoubtedly will be a much changed one. Weidline probably will go to center and Bramwell to his end. It looks, at present, like Detwiler, Rambo and Price would be the regular backfield. The line probably will remain as it is. Mosse says that he wants more men to come out for practice. The bigger and faster the better.
Open Play Not Used.
It was apparent to those who watched the game last Saturday that Kansas lost, probably a chance to score and surely much ground because of of failure to use the forward pass. The Drake line repulsed the Kansas smashing attack and there was nothing for the Jayhawkers to do but smash away for small gains which were followed up by punts. It seemed that the team could not keep ball in Drake's territory. That the style of the play will be changed if Kansas expects to win from the bigger teams is the opinion of several of the closest followers of the team.
Game a Hard Struggle.
Both teams started with a rush on the kickoff play. Hatcher was hurt and did not return, so a time. Drake tried to smash the line but could do nothing. Simon tried the end and found it better so
