According to Con Hofman, secretary, the Y. M. C. A., is going to be a factor on the campus this year "During the S. A. T. C last year there was no student organization of the Y. M. C. A. at K U." This fact necessitated a complete reorganization that was especially difficult in view of the small number of men in school. Much of the committee organization and
the organization of the whole promot-
force had to be postponed until this full. In spite of these handcaps the Y, M, G, C, A, is on his feet, but he can stand on them. He paign to make it a working foe on the campus."
Con Hoffman, secretary of the University Y. M. C. A., has introduced a new style of pledge cards, "In the old card, the idea of membership was very indefinite, so we can now use the pledge card is in pamphlet form. The pledge, stating that the money to be used in aiding the needy and to help K. U., is on the front page. Application for membership is in the inside, and the objects of the Y. M. C. A. are on the back. The system would enable the students to realize what their pledges stand for.
An A. E. F. man was a prizewinner in Germany and is now Assistant to Director of Greek Theatre at the University of California, pays a salary to Comet College in Santa Barbara as a librarian. A. A. at the University of Kanus, which runs as follows:
"It is a long prion from California to the enemy prison at Kraszt, Germany, yet the tie between Conrad Hoffman and the men who were in prison was that they could speak and bind. Clear and forceful in speech, gracious and generous in personal contacts, his frequent visits to the camp left us happy and freshly inspired to maintain our worth an American man. The danger of a retaliatory attack can be in check by his friendship and companionship. Hoffmann needs no prizes but he needs all we may give. His work was aplenty and mangement."

Old Kansas Grads Exalt Memory of Their Beloved Dean
Far States are Heard From
Fitting Memorial Suggested by Many in Their Communications
Since the publication of the news of Uncle Jimmy's death, November 4, Frank Terrell, president of the School of Law, has received many letters from former students and alumni who had been under the tutelage of the grand old dean of the University. "Uncle Jimmy's answer to the last question was, 'I have died,' that I have shed in years," was the substance of one of the telegraphs.
The letters were universal in their praise of Uncle Jimmy. From Indiana, Colorado, Oklahoma, and all parts of Kansas the men who are directing the affairs of the community, have worked to increase the faves of Uncle Jimmy in their lives.
"Before I entered the School of Law at the University of Kansas, I had heard of the illustrious Uncle Jimmy Crow and his great-grandfather of his greatgrandts. . . . His popularity with the young men rested in his simplicity of thought and action. To me his outstanding trait was his youthful wit and charm from the southern part of Kansas.
A lawyer out in the state in his letter says: "I have often wondered whether the students, while they were students, and especially the members of our class, would Law really appreciated 'Uncle Jimmy' while they were students." I think you will find among the graduates a finer appreciation of 'Uncle Jimmy' Green than among the students. "And that they all loved and honored him."
IS IT WORTH WHILE TO KNOW?—
"The last time I tricked with "Uchee Jimmy" was about a year ago, in his office. He had a list of the boys who were killed in the attack. He wont over it as we talked and cried like a father as he came to those who had been killed, or died in service. He seemed to know where those boys were and what they were doing."
Among the writers there seems to be a feeling that an appropriate memorial should be erected to Uncle Jimmy. Several have suggested a statue or monument be placed near the law building.
