UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
CUBS WILL WRITE FOR SILVER CUP
Geology Professors Offers Prize for Imaginary Tunnel Construction
Cub reporters on the Daily Kansan now have an incentive to turn out good copy for other reasons than that of grades. Prof. A. C. Terrill, of the department of geology, offered a loving cup yesterday for the best article on mining engineering work, written by a student in New Paper I, the class of 2016. The content will be announced later by a committee composed of Mr. Terrill and some members of the journalism faculty.
The article concerning some phase of the work of K. U. mining engineers will possibly take a form emerging from our own lab, U. engineers at work on a project such as the building of a tunnel through Mount Oread. Contestants for the cup are to describe the work involved in this project of such an engineering achievement.
Members of Professor Rice's class in Newspaper I made an informal call at Haworth Hall yesterday morning and were entertained with talks by Dr. R. C. Moore, Dr. W. P. Haynes, Richard L. Grider, and Paul Teator of the mining engineering faculty, of the students involved on the talks from which to write their stories; the remaining one-third was instructed by Professor Rice to take no notes and to write the story from memory.
HONOR FOR FRESHMEN
Roll of Students Named Hangs in Fraser Hall
Freshmen in the college now have a chance to achieve an honor that the freshmen of three years ago did not have. At that time the roll of honor was unknown, and aside from the few political offices, there was no way for the first year students to get an honor. But with the advent of the roll of honor two years ago their opportunities increased.
"Although this custom of publishing the names of the honor students is only two years old," said Dean Templin, "it has created a great deal of interest among the first-year members of the college. Nor is the honor so small as it might at first seem. You must be careful when you out of the several hundred competitors, is certainly evidence of some ability as a scholar."
The list of honor students is determined by a system of election by the faculty. At the end of each year, nomination blanks are sent to the instructors, with the request that they nominate their best students as candidates for the roll of honor. Those students nominated by three or more instructors are elected, and their names placed upon the list as those who have been nominated and proposed of future scholarly accomplishment. The list is then placed in the main hallway of Fraser, where it remains all of the next year. On the first list were the names of thirty-two boys and twenty girls, as opposed to thirty-two boys and twenty nine girls last year.
Chancellor Strong was one of the satisfaction with the way the K. C. Indians last night. He followed the plays from the sidelines and expressed satisfaction with the thway the K. U. squad showed against the Indians.
The lack of spectators at the scrimmage with Haskell last night is attributed to the fact that the scrimmage was arranged late in the day. The coaches did not arrange the practice until almost noon and even the players did not find it out until they got to the field.
The secret practice sign was posted on the gates for a while last night. Coach Olcott uses the first part of the afternoon for secret practice, knowing which he lets down the bars for everyone to see the team in action.

CORRESPONDENCE SHOWS
THE BIGGEST INCREASE
"The enrollment report of the correspondence study department of the University for the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, covering June, July, and August, showed an increase of 24.6 percent in theingham, secretary of the department.
The September enrollment was
that which is an increase of 20 per
cent each year.
"The big increase for the quarter is largely accounted for," said Mr. Ingham, "by the fact that many teachers who needed a few hours' professional work or some additional training during July, which month showed an enrollment four times greater than that of July a year ago."
MR. MERCHANT— BUY CORDS TODAY
Journalists Sign Lists Agreeing to Put 'em on October 20
The movement of the journalists to continue their custom of wearing corduroy trousers is meeting with a prompt response on the part of the students. The first year journalists are taking to the idea and will not be outdone by the upperclassmen in lovishity to the department.
The journalists have set Friday as the day for the first cords to appear. The team got the pots to the movement for the cords but the weather man has offered no promises. Flannel shirts are recommended but not required as part of the wardrobe.
The custom was started at the University of Kansas last year, the idea being brought from Leland Stanford. The journalists donned the cords in mid-winter last year but were before the Associated Journalism Press were there. The "Articles of Agreement" posted on the bulletin board yesterday has more signers already than the list of last year. The prompt response insures the success of the movement this year. By Friday all the men expected of the department are expected to have their names on the petition.
Attempts to get the co-operation of the faculty members of the department was unsuccessful last year. This year the name of a new professor in the department heads the college, and signed up yet but—it's a secret, they are planning on appearing in 'em Friday morning.
