University Preserves Memoria to Mrs. Ellen Sayre
Faculty Pays Tribute
The faculty of the University recently passed a resolution as a part of its recognition of the life and services of Mrs. Maye Slayey, the Sayye, of the School of Pharmacy. The resolution will be preserved in the records of the University as a memorial of its sorrow at his death, appreciation of his beautiful character.
"For nearly forty years she was a member of the University circle. During this time, until her recent illness, she had been active in its social life, performing with gracious courtesy and fidelity the many exacting duties which fell upon her. Those who knew her best speak feelfully of her interest in the University of her loyalty to its curriculum of her devotion to the family, that she believed would promote its welfare that can best be described as quiet, retiring, unassuming, yet inspirational greatly in influencing for good all with whom she was associated.
"As a tribute to a loyal servant of the University of Kansas, we place these words upon our request: transmit a message to our friend our dear teammate, Dean Sayre."
This memorial is the report of the committee consisting of William L. Brydick, George O. Foster, and J. G. Brandt, which was appointed at a recent meeting of the Chancellor's cabinet for that purpose.

Innocent Little Snake Gets Much Publicity
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 2. 1924
A sudden screen snows the sleeping young journalista in a news class last Wednesday. An investigation showed that a harmless little snake had shown itself above the window sill. It had greatly frightened one of the small弱智 damnals, and she did not aid the aid of some chivalrous knight.
Woe be unto the innocent little creature that disturbs a news class, for his shall be a life of publicity. Thursday and Friday no less than a quarter hour, but on the roached the desk, and of these three or four went down to the limo-type operators. Each hour the copy-reader on the desk change and each hour from the quota of stories she read to one not to go to the composing room.
The first one was received with interest by the operator, and then he went on setting something else and forgot the story of the snake. He flinked and scratched his head when he heard a barking latter, but he went ahead and set it for he thought the people upstairs knew their business. When a third came down he became curious, for by the third time he was sure that he had set up one of the stories here behold! Two were already in type.
A wild rush upstarts and a string of words that won't bear repeting, and the operator had arrived just in time to stop a fourth interpretation of the young dansel's scream from going down to the composing room. All because of a harmless little snake!
Prof. Frank W. Blackmar, head of the department of sociology, has been recently reappointed as an elector of the Hall of Fame at New York University. This is the sixth such professor. Profession Blackmar has served.
Blackmar Reappointed Hall of Fame Elector at New York University
Has Served on Electorate Witi Presidents Cleveland, Wilson and Rosevelt
The Hall of Fame is a memorial, the result of a private donation, serving the purpose of conferring honor to former Americans, and adding to the patriotic legacy of the names on the roll of the greatest Americans.
Since the Hall, of Fane was founded in 1900, the names of 63 great Americans have been recorded. Of them, George Washington was the only one to receive the unanimous vote of the electors.
The names to be inscribed in the Hall of Fame are chosen every five years by the electoral college. Taeelectors are chosen by the senate of New York University and are American born men of distinctive representing all sections of the country and several professions.
There are 100 electors, who are chosen in approximately equal numbers, from the following seven groups of citizens: 1, editors, authors and artists; 2, presidents of universities and colleges; 3, jurists; 4, high public officials; 7, men and women of affairs. Professor Blackmar is the only person from Kansas who has been chosen as an elector. The electorate of the Hall of Fame has been a distinguished one, containing many names which without doubt will eventually be recorded in the Hall of Fame. In Indiana, Edward Everett Haldock, Woodrow Wilson and Whitehall Reid have serves as electors.
Seven names were selected by the electors at the last election in 1920, to be inscribed in the Hall of Fame. They were the following: Patrick Henry, Roger Williams, Samuel L. Clemens ("Mark Twain"), James Bushman Eads, Alice Freeman Palmer, Augustus Wiggins, William Green Morton. The margin of time after death at which a person becomes eligible to election is now 25 years. The next election will be held in 1925.

Laboratory Manual Out
Professor Prepares Study Guide for Zoology Classes
Prof. W, J. Baumgartner, of the department of Zoology, has just received the page proof from ticco McMillan publishing commany for a laboratory manual which he has prepared. The manual is entitled, "A Laboratory Manual for the "etatin Pin."
The specimen for this work have been obtained from a parking house in Kansas City. The members of the zoology classes make several each year for material to use in the study, and in preparation for the manual.
According to Professor Baughmartter the principle in the guide have been tried out for a number of year, here at the University and have proved satisfactory. This manure will make possible a study of mammals in comparative anatomy and zoology classes and will no doubt prove a boon to many teachers of these subjects, as the pig will take the place of the cats and rabbits used here-to-fire in dissections. The cats are rabbits are free from disease and the many haymen objected to the use of those pets in the laboratory", said Professor Baughmartter.
The McMillan company has always refused here-to-fire to publish manuals, but accepted this at once. Professor Baumgartner said this was probably due to the fact that they saw the possibility of the fatal pig injury in small mammals and herofeetos in laboratories all over the country.
The manual will contain about 69 pages and will probably be ready for use about Dec. 1.
The date rule will be suspended for "The Romantic Age" at the Bowersock, Monday night, Nov. 3, and for that

Damsel Sees Reptile and Shrieks in Class
Professor DILL was explaining the court systems of this country to his Newspaper 1 class at 1:30. The system was being discussed, the grand jury was being discussed.
"And, if the index
"O-0-ooo-oh!!" A shriek of terror.
Then absurd silence.
ror. Then absolute silence.
What could cause that man to interest her?
Or did he riddle "Yes." Had her scluned cinders in a terrible dream? Did she realize what she had done? Surely not! All these and other thoughts raced through the minds of the crowd, the numbers of their class shrieked as if in perilous straits.
As the instructor's chin gradually ascended to its normal position and his month no longer remained open in consternation, but closing to a threatening grim face strained quality. It was indeed a critical moment. Surely no self-respecting instructor would stand for such unheard of dramatics in his class. The grief surely could not be in her right
Just as it seemed that the abolition silence was no longer possible, the offender spoke up in querulous, frightened tone:
"There's a snake over there in that window!" She had not been asleep, nor was she out of her mind, for sure enough, there was a cute little carter snake, liquisitively exploring the window ledge, seeking for a comfortable spot in which to hask in the bairy rays of the autumn sun!
Party Majority Is Best
Coming Congressional Election Important, Says Guild
"I believe that the coming congressional election is fully as important as the election of a president," said Prof. Frederick H. Guild, head of the department of political science, in an interview Thursday. "If the most good is going to be an compelled by an administration," he continued, "the party needs to credit itself for doing about an majority in bore houses, to secure the legislative and executive departments acting in harmony."
In analyzing the present situation, Professor Guild pointed out that the house of representatives is now made up of 225 Republican members including the ten LaFollette members from Wisconsin, 207 Democrat nominees, two Minnesota Farmers-Labor members, and one Ohio State. The coming election will give us a congress and a president which will work together to accomplish the most," said Professor Guild.
"According to an analysis of the congressional outlook for the coming election, 172 members are almost sure to be Republican, 150 will be certainly Democrat, 19 will be certainly La Follette, or among promising 100 members are in the doubtful class," he pointed out.
Jayhawker Dates Made
Picture Section to be Large Says Nichols
"We are pleased with the way the organizations are responding with group pictures for the Jayhawker," said Raymond Nichols & titter, Friday morning. "No far 35 organization has heard about one-third of these have already had their pictures made," concluded Nichols.
The editors are planning to make this section as large or larger than the one in last year’s Jayhawk. The down town studios are co-operating by putting in a g art deal of extra time in order to meet the students, and with the students also co-operating this may be done.
So far no individual pictures have been taken and students are urged to make their appointment; for those at once in order to avoid the rush, parents are encouraged to size up 486 inches in size. The deadline for them is January 10.
According to Nichols snap shots are still needed for the snap shot section. Pictures portraying camp or University life in any way may be used and should be turned in at the Jayawheel office.
Pictures of the campus which will be used for publicity of the University, were taken Friday from the top of the radio tower. Two pictures which will reveal the entire campus were taken by a Lawrence photographer, under the supervision of Prof. W. A. Dill.

The dinner, which followed an all-eastern rehearsal, was prepared and served by members of the committee. Jacqueline Line Stice, Tennyon Beck, Faustie-cor, and Dedryth Fenton, Hollowen's decorations, favors and fortunes gave a holiday擂幣 to the affair.
Showing great form and insufficient gaining ability, the Jay-hawkers had no trouble in winning. The only feature of the game which was not up to good form was the receiving of pants.
"This afternoon's rehearsal was very satisfactory," Mrs. Bair said. "The versatile ability of several of the cast is shown to advantage in the role of knight, which they are assuming the roles of knights and ladies of the old time."
The local unit of the Stage Hand and Motion Figure Operators Union is donating its services to assist in the presentation of the play, according to Jacqueline Sice, chairman of the committee in charge. It is part of the union code to assist gratuitously at all benefit performances

Ames, 21—Kansas Aggies, 0. Ohi c, 19.
Kansas fumbles were many but none of them were serious. The Pikers were confident of winning for the first time since 1891 but they were turned back early in the game when Taylor blocked Levy's put on the Piker 3-yard line and B. Sell fell on the ball over the goal line. Burt failed to kick goal. The second tally came as the result of a long pass, Zuber to W. Anderson, which placed the ball on the Washington 20-year line. Straight football put the ball within 5 yards of the Piker line and a pass, Zuber to Hodges, put the ball on the 1-foot line. Zuber took Stover on an off-tackle smash. Burt kicked goal.

The Kansas team fought hard and showed a strength that argues well for their remaining games of the season.
