Date for Missouri Game Considered by Athletic Board
Allen Expresses Hope That Annual Battle Be Held on Saturday, Nov. 22
At a meeting of the athletic board of the University of Kansas held Tuesday, Nov. 18, the board unanimously voted to award the annual football game with the University of Missouri on the Saturday preceding Thanksgiving. This is in line with the policy adopted leading universities of the country.
"There is an unmistakable treen to get back to fundaments it living. The observance of Thanksgiving, which the custome of those customs which has faded out to some degree. Students owe it to their parents to spend Thanksgiving at home, and numbers on football teams also should have the privilege.
"The fact that Kansas and Missouri tried to play the game on the Saturday before Thanksgiving some years ago and then returned to the old custom of a Turkey Day battle sons. There is also some belief that alumni would not be able to attend the game in as great numbers on the Saturday date. Better transportation facilities of the present day ensure that objection being overcome, those old grads back for homecoming to stay over Saturday and through Sunday where now there is immediate exodus from the campus right after the game in order to get back to business or to get home for the holiday season that is left.
Some of the reasons behind the desire at the University of Kansas for the change in the Missouri-Kansas game date were explained by Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics, as follows:
"Kansas is strong for the change in date and hopes that Missouri will be also."
School Religion Stressed
Doctor Smith Speaks to Group on Bible Training
"Science and industry have brought the world into a neighborhood; now it is for religion to convert the neighborhood innot a brotherhood," said Dr. H. Shelton Smith, international superintendent of religious education speaking before a group of University students in Myra hall, Tuesday afternoon.
All the education leaders of the country are beginning to realize that religious education is very vital to the young student of today. Religious education is carried on in close relation with common school work. They have interlocking relationships. Where school authorities are in favor of religious education, there is connection with regular studies. Each school has its own teachers and superintendent, and pays salaries, according to Dr. Smith.
The leading schools over the country are taking up this type of education, and are offering courses in history, music, and physical work. Such schools as Northwestern, Boston, Teachers' College, Columbia, and Yale give degrees for a work or degree that the third is a doctor's degree from Yale in religious education.
Doctor Smith and the other representatives here will grant conferences to any students interested in any of the phases of religious education.
The house presidents and group leaders will hold a meeting in central Administration building, Thursday at 4:30. Daisy Erstad, president of Cordonia hall, will talk about the rules, and organization of the dormitory.

Equal Standards Needed for World Freedom--Ludlow
Dean of Topeka Cathedral Speaks at Y. M. C. A.
Noon Luncheon Today
Dean Theodore R. Ludlow of Grace Cathedral, Topkush, addressed today the first of the Wednesday noon Y. M. C. A. lunchmeets on the "American Students and American Stakes in the Far East." Dean Ludlow stated that America must establish contacts with the rest of the world on common standards of equality, justice and freedom. Dean Ludlow held the chair of the social and political Boone University at Wachau, China, for five years. He also spent part of the year 1918 in France during the war.
We are living in a world that is getting so everlastingly small that we are rubbing elbows with everyone," said Dean Ludlow in emphasizing the extent to which communal life has narrowed the boundaries of the world.
"The question is no longer an academic one, of do, we get along with out neighbors, but can we get along without them," pointed out the speaker as being the problem that confronts the youth of America. He further stated that the youth of North Carolina are universities, compose, not only the leaders of the nation, but also of the world.
Dean Ladlow briefly reviewed the steps which America has already taken in world leadership. There was the principle in the Monroe Dectrine which strove for co-operation among the nations, especially of the Western Hemisphere. In 1904 our secreture of state, John Hay, enunciated the principle of "door." And again in the recent world war, Woodrow Wilson pronounced our responsibility to make the world free for democracy.
"If we are living in a shrinking world, what do you and I have to do with it?" questioned the speaker, referring to the next step of leadership which he said concerns the American youth. He said that equality are the necessary bases for harmonious world relations.
"We can have no freedom if we have fear, so we must get rid of fear, we must seek equality, and the only basis for equality is justice," said Dean Ludlow. He cited the fact that many of us live up to the standards of equality that we do. For this reason "we must achieve a common standard in the world in order to have real justice and real freedom," he added. "We must establish contacts with other people," said Dean Ludlow. "In order to form formerly backward nations as Japan and China he showed to be leaping forward industrially with remarkable speed, due to the training they had in the recent war. Dean Ludlow stated that from a utilitarian viewpoint alone this progress behaves like it does." We must equality with these nations and to stop looking upon other peoples as being inferior to us.
"America believes it has a message for the world. The way to present it is not to stand off, but to handle it with a sense standpoint," continued Ludlow, "it is necessary to get out into the world and to establish contacts there." He said the stonestories. That is the way you and I are going to establish peace."
