UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN VOLUME XIV NUMBER 36 FARMERS HELD ON GOAL LINE Kansas Unable to Penetrate Aggie Defense in Danger Zone NEIJ. ER TEAM SCORED Both Coaches Satisfied With Showing of Teams in Annual Game Playing the best brand of football seen on McCook Field this season, the Jayhawk met the Kansas Aggies last Saturday—and such was the prowess of both teams that neither could score on the other. The game was hotly contested from the first whistle to the final blast—and it was an awful/do you know about any particular minute of play. Once, when the Jayhawker team was within a few feet of the Aggie goal, and with two dows to go on, it seemed as if the Farmer line would be crossed for the only touchdown of the afternoon. The whistle blew just at that moment, however, and when the two teams faced each other again at the beginning of the Aggies had rallied, and the attempts of K. U. to carry the ball on over were futile. Both teams had chances to score, but they could not advance the ball when they approached the goal. The Aggies lost their best chance when Randel's after blocking an attempted dunk from a cornerback star had a clear field ahead of him, but in his anxiety to get under way he dropped the pigskin. Kansas lost her best chances on forward passes. Just before the end of the first half, Lindsey tried to drop kick from the end of bounds out of bounds out of bounds on the Aggie one-yard line, and Wells' kicked out of danger to the twenty yard line. AGGIE FUMBLES COSTLY Although the play was practically all in aggie territory during the first half, the Aggies clearly outclassed the Jayhawkers in their ability to carry the ball. In the first quarter, although the Farmers gained sixy-four yards from scrimmage against the Aggies, they still had the ball in Kansas territory. Frequent fumbling on the part of the Aggies was responsible. Kansas played much better football in the second half, and gained more ground by scrimmage than did the Aggies. The Farmer passes, however, offset this advantage. Why theAggies got past the pass was to understand. In seven attempts they were able to complete four for a total of forty-six yards. Kansas tried the pass thirteen times, twice successful for eighteen yards. Onepass failed because the Aggie endswere upon Captain Lindsey before hecould hurt the ball. Seeing that the balltucked theball under his arm and broke awayfor a thirty-yard run around theFarmer left end. Wells and Randels starred for the Aggies, Randels made a gain every time he carried the ball during the game. "I got 'toon him," by the time the second half began, and he was thrown back for a loss every time he ran. Wells scored four goals in eight yards or so in every play in which he was given the pigein. Captain Lindsey's work was the outsanding feature of the Kansas play. The heady Jayhawk captain figured in almost every ball almost as far as the remainder of the backfield combined. His passing was brilliant, and unsuccessful only because of the failure of the ends to "communicate" with the Kansas player in his captain. Jack Frost, right tackle, was the only other Jayhawk whose work might be termed brilliant. His showing at the tackle position was strong. Both coaches, although disappointed that their teams had not won, appeared well satisfied with the showing of their men.

M Work Among University Students "The most wonderful enthusiasm I have ever seen was present all during our campaign Thursday and it will continue for a long time if I am not mistaken," said Hugo Wedell, secretary of the University Y. M. C. A. this morning. "Every man on the committee was full of energy and help who alone held his bat. And among University men the word 'best' means much." Reports on the campaign by the committees stopped at midnight Thursday night. The lunch planned for the men at ten o'clock was eaten in relays for most of the men were busy building from the building at twelve o'clock after taking reports of the committees all afternoon and evening. A Clean-Up campaign will be arranged in all probability November 9. The same committee will do the work and all men who have not been seen yet will be called on that day. This Clean-Up campaign will last but the one day and the thousand dollars to be set aside to be satisfied raising money. Mr. Weddell wants all committees, workers who have failed to report vet, to see him immediately. One hundred men have reported up until today. Half of the faculty committee has put in its report. Only partial reports have been given by most of the men. The results of the work by these students and faculty committees netted $1,800, of which $405 with only half the reports in. This leaves one thousand dollars yet to be obtained. "The sooner we get this business cleaned up the better it will be for the Y. M. C. A.," said Mr. Weddell. "I wish the men would come around to see me either today or tomorrow morning." The campaign is held each year for a two-fold purpose. The primary interest is that of obtaining enough money to run the association for the year, but the second reason and one not far behind the first is the purpose of showing to the men of the community how much work is trying to do. The campaign workers were all instructed to make this last point clear. The Weather "We succeeded in getting most of the money," Dutch said this morning: "But what I liked was the spirit with which most of the men gave; it showed that they appreciate the work of the association. And that is what we want. Every worker noted the fact that the enthusiasm was great." Generally fair tonight and Tuesday cooler Tuesday. LAMBERTSON VISITS K. U. Attended Game and Party While on Official Visit State Senator W. P. Lambertson of Fairway, Kansas, chairman of the commission appointed by the 1915 state legislature to make a report concerning conditions in institutions supported by the state, is in Lawrence today for the kickoff game for the K.

She read "The Land of Heart's Desire" by Yates and "Spreading the News" by Lady Gregory. Senator Lambertson himself spent several weeks during the past summer as well as some time last spring in making preliminary visits. Senator Lambertson is a graduate of Ottawa and Chicago universities. It was announced by Senator Lambertson that the three members of the commission would spend nearly all their time during the present month visiting the many institutions of all kinds in order to be ready to prepare a report for the 1917 legislature. Members of Seventy-Five Coun ty Organizations to Meet Thursday CALLS MEETING OF CO. CLUBS UNION STUDENT COUNCIL HELPS To Appoint Committee of Three —Chancellor Will Call Convocation A general conference of the members of the seventy-five county club organizations has been called by the Executive Committee of the County Clubs' Union for Thursday evening in Fraser Hall. This will be the first time this year that a general conference of county clubs has been held. The county clubs' Union will be given over to strengthening the plans for the fight for the Permanent Income Tax next winter. "I shall be glad to do all that is in my power to help the movement," said Chancellor Strong this morning. "I have told the leaders of the County Clubs Union that they could have any Convocation Day after November 3 for a general boosting convocation for the Mill Tax, or as it is now named, the Permanent Income Bill." The County Clubs Union will start their fight with the backing of the entire University—the Student Council representing the sentiment of the students, the Chancellor representing the attitude of the University Senate. EVERYBODY TO HELP COUNCIL APPOINTS COMMITTEE The Men's Student Council is cooperating with the extent of appointing a special committee to work in conjunction with the County Clubs in the coming campaign in the winter session of the State Legislature. The names of the committee will be announced after the council meeting tomorrow night. It is probable that the Chancellor's offer will be accepted, and that a general convocation for explaining the merits of the Measure may be called the Nuremberg accord to a statement made by Willard Glasco, president of the County Clubs Union. JOURNALISTS TO GIVE BARBECUE Jack Frost, P18, is visiting with friends in Tonganoxie this afternoon. Second of Series of Unique Stunts Planned by Scribes for Nov. 10. Plans for a big barbecue, genuine western style, were the outcome of the meeting of Associated Journalism and the University last week. The celebration will be the first of the kind ever attempted at the university, probably will take place the afternoon. While the affair will be primarily for journalists, outsiders will be welcomed if they come as escorts or dates. Journalism is associated with Journalism organization. November 12th is University Sunday at the Plymouth Congregational Church. Students will be received that morning. Neville Larson of Baker University visited friends in Lawrence Saturday and attended the K. U.-Aggie game. Weather permitting, the scribes will meet at the Kansan office at 4 in the afternoon and hike in a body to a point on the bank of the Kaw about the west of Lawrence. And there they will make merry as only scribes can. Prof. A. C. Terrill, of the department of mining, will tell of the conditions of the miners at Pittsburg, Kansas, in a lecture at the University Y. Kansahon on mine operations. Professor Terrill's wide experience in dealing with mine workers, the talk on the mining situation here in this state will be of interest not only because miners have to those who are planning to engage in social welfare work. Dr. Burdick is lecturing before his class of University men and women, on his book, The Master, which he is writing. The class meets each Sunday, at 12 o'clock, in Plymouth Congregational church. His subject next Sunday will be the "Original Sources of the Life of Christ and His Time." W. R. Fourney of Kansas City visited with friends on the Hill Saturday and Sunday. He officiated as ghost at Westminster Hall Friday evening. Chauney Hunter has been appointed chairman of the committee in charge. Talks on Mine Situation EIGHT HUNDRED ARE INOCULATED Student Hospital Has Been Busy Since Death of Typhoid Case RESERVE ONLY TWO DAYS Tuesdays Set Aside for Women — Fridays For the Men Inoculation of University student will continue on two days of the week only. Tuesday afternoons are reserved for women, and Friday afternoon for men. To date, approximately 800 students of the University have been inoculated. Many of these, of course, have taken their first "shots". Three vaccinations at the end of six days apart are required before a person is rendered immune from typhoid fever; then he will be safeguarded from contracting the disease for a period of seven years. No new cases of typhoid or further fatalities were to be announced by the University health board this morning. Instead, the nurse in charge at the student hospital stated that all of the typhoid cases now confined to the hospital were showing marked improvement. Perhaps many students have at some time been curious to know just what the hospital fec of two dollars attached to their enrollments each month is. You'll notice that the inoculation against typhoid have, so far, cost the student hospital over two hundred dollars should be a fragmentary examination. The free inoculations given by this institution are good work. The University man or woman can always consult them for free medical assistance. NOTED ARTISTS HERE THURSDAY Skovgaard and N. Y. Metropolitan Company to Give Second Number of Concert Course Skovgaard, Denmark's greatest violinist and the New York Metropolitan Company presented by Vladimir Nevolff will give the second concert of the University Course, Thursday night, November 2, in Robinson Gymnasium. This is his last concert to head a comedy greatest hits show of grand opera singers and instrumental artists ever presented to the University. Skoggwaard and his $13,000 Stradivarius violin will of course be the leading attraction, but there are five other artists—four singers and the pianist Alice McClung-Skoggwaard, wife of the famous artist. The entertainment will be after the fashion of the Sunday concerts in the Metropolitan Opera House. With New York's great variety of music in fact this concert is to be a popular concert, which everyone will enjoy. There are to be Arias from the favorite operas by the Grand Opera singers in their original costumes. Susan Emma Drought, the soprano will appear in costume in selections from "Martha" and "Mignon". Mildred Hayes, the other soprano will sing from the "Lohengrin" and the Malboré in "Saint Margaret", will sing in "Sampson and Deliah" and "Carmen". Aubery N.

Classical music, chamber music, popular music for everybody is the drawing attraction of this wonderful concert. In view of the fact that this is to be one of the most popular concerts in the Course,single seats for students will be marked down to fifty cents.

"SHOWERS OF BLESSING" FOR THE SHINE PARLORS The rains and snows which descend of times spoil shines. Consequently the shine parlores down town double on a day before the first clear day after a storm. During wet and sloppy weather we don't do any business at all," said one of the shine men today. "We must wait until the weather clears up Saturday is our biggest day from the standpoint of attendance and profits. We charge ten cents on Sundays but the coming of Sunday forces the men and women of the Hill to get a shine." 2300 PRONOUNCE PARTY A SUCCESS Witches and Cats Greeted Students and Faculty at Halloween Party Decorations were surprising and unusual; witches, owls, and huge pumpkins were suspended from the girders, the walls held myriads of black cats and witches on a background of yellow strips. Lighting was used to illuminate them, illustrated by jack-o-lanterns. The orchestra played from a huge stack of cornfodder, enlivened by small jack-o-lanterns. "A fine party, in spite of some things going slowly," was the opinion expressed by many of the 2300 persons attending the All-University Halloween Party in Robinson Gymnasium. Saturday night. "Julius Caesar", a farce presented before the social dancing created fun and laughter and was well worth the wait. Because costumes were delayed in arriving from Kansas, they proved to be unable to present "The Graduating Exercises of Miss M. T. Oread's Finishing School". The fortune telling attracted hundreds and many were turned away; the witch created as much enjoyment as the dignified crystal gazer. Another attraction of the lower floor was the retread of huge banksets and many jars of crulers were served from a table dressed in true Halloween style. The student receiving line greeted the guests, preceding the Grand March. Jess Gardner and P. J. Flinn with their guests distributed dance programs. The feature dancing was followed by three delightful vocal numbers by Mrs. Frank J. Burton, of Chicago. In spite of the crowded floor, the seat dancing made a happy ending for them. MAY LIMIT ALL STUDENT DANCES Organizations Asked to Express Opinions Before Action is Taken by Committee Letters have been sent to the various student organizations of the University by Mrs. Eustace Brown, asking their opinions on the question of limiting the number of dances which may be given in one year by each organization. The letters are sent upon the request of the joint committee on student interests at the present time although the returns are to be in before November 1. The letter follows; The Joint Committee on Student Interests desires an expression from the members of your organization as to the advisability of limiting the degree of participation in school year. You are probably aware that, the reputation for too much dancing has been against the best interests of the School with the members of the Legislature, if it has not been interfaced with scholastic attainment. Recently published statistics would indicate that the social life affects the young men more than the young women. The members of the joint committees have no desire to curtail unreasonably the pleasure of the student body, and it is with a faith in the intelligence and fairness of the students that we ask you to consider a minimum limit to the number of dances. Such a limit has been achieved. But our average. If it would be better for ours, why not? Let me hear from you by Wednesday, November 1. Please state number of dances given by your organization last year. Very truly yours, Mrs. Eustace H. Brown. Don Davis. All copy for the Sour Owl must be in my hands by Wednesday. ... CROWDS GREET SOLDIERS TODAY Company M Returns From Ft. Riley After Absence of Four Months MEN GLAD TO BE BACK Authorities Make Efforts to Adjust Matters So Boys Can Stay in School Greeted by several thousand students and townpeople the boys of Company M, of the Federal Guard, returned to Lawrence from Fort Riley early afternoon. At the Pacific station steam cranes the Pacific station cheer and cheer resounded across fields north of the Kaw, and the soldiers answered likewise. After an absence of four months in which time they have seen service on the Mexican border, the team has taken up their work in the University. There have been no arrangements made as yet for the boys to continue their work at the University, but the men who will be teaching the deans and professors to make allowances as they see fit and to do their best to settle the matter. It is probable that the men will enter full standing for the semester's work. Some of the students in the company have given up the idea of returning to school until next semester as they were working their way through the University and not being able to afford any college having no income from their old jobs in Lawrence, have nothing to depend on for their support. MUST KEEP MEN IN SCHOOL The Annual State Student Volunteer Convention will be held at Baldwin High School. There is already a movement among the churches in town to raise funds for the boys of their denomination who will need the financial aid to finish the year's work. Chancellor Bill McDonough has settled the manner to be used in raising the required amount in time to see that the boys do not lose any of the semester's work through delay in the collection of the amount. The All-University assembly that was to have been held last Friday at for the Company M boys will be held in August and in December big affair and every student is urged to be present. Several men will speak for the boys and possibly some of the boys will have something to say. Speaking of these Chancellor Frank Strong said, "The boys must not go home on account of lack of funds. The money must be raised in some way. If the towns that the students come from can not supply the necessary amount we should take possession of them. Fellows do not lose this semester's work. If necessary we might use part of the student loan fund." VOLUNTEERS WILL MEET Kansas College Students Convene at Baker University One hundred and fifty delegates are expected from all the Colleges of Kansas and the best authorities on missions are being sought for the program. The following speakers are expected, Rev. M. D. Eubank A. D. Aimeel A. D. Abu-qadou from Turkey, Rev. Wm. R. Coverty from Egypt, Miss Florence Erffmeyer from Japan. Other strong leaders are expected.
