HAD TO CHANGE PLANS
Vice-President Marshall Forced to Shorten His Visit in Lawrence
SPOKE IN ECKE'S HALL
Officers of K. U. Wilson Club on Reception Committee
The visit of Vice-President Thomas R. Marshall to the University campus was delayed a few hours today by changes in the iterary. The trip was made this afternoon at 2:30 immediately preceding his lecture in Ecke's Hall, instead of at 11 o'clock air as was announced yesterday by charge of the office of the cloacatic central committee, who has charge of the plans.
Changes in the eastern part of the itinerary made it necessary for Mr. Marshall to change his Lawrence plans. Mr. and Mrs. Marshall made the trip to Lawrence over the interurban route following which they would move to the University and Haskell Institute before the meeting in Ecke's Hall.
Henry Albach, chairman, presided over the meeting this afternoon, introducing Ralph H. Spotts, former K. U. cheerleader, who made a short speech of introduction for the Vice-President.
Mr. and Mrs. Marshall will leave for Topeka on the evening train as a meeting has been arranged at that place for this evening. Local citizens and officers of the K. U. Woodrow Wilson club will visit with Mr. Marshall after his lecture this afternoon before time for information about suggestions and other information will be sought from the Vice-President, and it is probable that little time will be left for discussion of national problems.
TALKS POLITICS TONIGHT
Earl Akers Addresses Hughes Club On Campaign
A special appeal to students who have not made up their minds definitely on presidential election to attend the Hughes club meeting tonight was made today by Ames Rogers, president of the organization. The meeting will be in Room 105, Green Hall, starting at 7:30 o'clock.
"State Treasurer Earl Akers is being brought here to discuss the problems of the campaign, because we believe that University students are interested in politics and are glad of the discussions and discussions on the merits of the candidates and the principles which they advocate," said Rogers.
Akers is considered an effective speaker. It was his campaign works that first called attention to his ability to garner voting elected to an important state office.
The meeting tonight is one of several which will be put on by the K. U. Hughes club before the campaign ends. A meeting of the club officers was held last week to formulate plans for the organization.
President Rogers in speaking of tonight's meeting emphasized that it would not last too late to prevent study afterwards.
DIRECTORY WILL GO
TO PRINTER NEXT WEEK
The copy for the student directory will probably go to the state printer at Topeka some time next week, as the copy is from the office of the registrar.
This week the clerical force is checking up its lists with the addresses of students at the postoffice to make sure that all street numbers are correct. There are also a number of names and addresses to be added from the enrollment list at Rosedale. This material will be here late this week or early next week if changes occur. Any changes of address or telephone number should be reported to the office of the registrar at once so that the correction may be made and the directory made more accurate.

Martinelli, Italian Tenor, Ap pears in Robinson Gymnasium Tomorrow
Giovanni Martinielli, the tenor from the Metropolitan Opera Co., who will give the first of the eight concerts comprising the University Concert Course, Thursday evening. October 18 at Auditorium A. He has a most varied career. It was while Martinielli was serving his three years as a soldier in the Italian army that his wonderful tenor voice was discovered. He was then solo clarinet player in the 71st infantry regiment in the one of the crack bands of the army.
Within a few years he had sung at every great opera house in Europe, excepting that in Berlin. Genoa, Naples, Rome, Monte Carlo, Venetia, Petrograd, Paris, and Brussels all heard him and hailed him as the tenor
GIOVANNI MARTINELLI
worthy to fill Caruso's shoes. It was while singing at Covent Garden in London that he was heard by the manager of the Metropolitan Opera Company in New York, and at once imaged for that city.
During the summer just passed he was the leading tenor at the Colon Opera in Buenos Aires, one of the largest and finest opera houses in the world. He made a tremendous success and was at once engaged for the next season of opera in 1917. In New York he ranks second only to William Shakespeare's captain has become more and more limited owing to the fact of his increasing weight, Martinielli has taken over the roles in which he was once famous. Some of these operas are Trovatore, Rigotto, Tosca, La Boheme, and Madame Butterfly. Owing to his youth, his graceful and manly bearing, and the splendor of his fresh young voice, Martinielli has won great favor in these operas. He has been known to create the tenor role in "Madame Sans Gene" when it was produced for the first time in New York last winter.
The program for tomorrow's concert is:

Professor Moore Explains Suf frage Laws Affecting K. U. Men and Women
MANY TO USE PRIVILEGE
Ballots Are To Be Mailed to Home Voting Station
"Any student duly qualified and of age is entitled to vote at the coming election and should do so if he has a spark of patriotism in him," said Prof. Blain F. Moore, of the department of history this morning.
"By an act of the legislature in 1913, a law was passed which entitled students to vote away from home. Professor Moore explained, "It is a law that any person must meet the requirements of his particular city in regard to qualifications as a voter. In cities of the first and second class he must be registered from his residence. In other cities all that is necessary is that he must be a resident of the state or become of age. At any rate, he must be duly qualified in his home town."
"When election day comes all he needs to do is to go to the polls here, take an oath, and fill out a blank that he is a duly qualified and registered voter of his home town. He is then elected and must return the vote is sent home and is counted there if all requirements have been met.
"Since the act is so simple" "communicate every aquarium water should be vaulted."
fied voter should vote. It is his duty". Judging by the number of students who have inquired concerning these laws, Professor Moore estimates that there must be at least two hundred and a half voting machines at the coming election. "A dozen or more students have come around to me and asked about this law permitting a voter absent from home to vote as a non-resident voter here in Lawrence," remarked Mr. Moore. "I think that all should vote who can."
AMES RALLY FRIDAY
The Team Will Depart at 8:40 o'Clock; Go, Cheer and
Sing
Efforts are being made to stage a monster rally on Friday night when the Jayhawker squad departs for Ames. The team will leave the Santa Fe depot at 8:40 o'clock and make connections with the Limited of the Great Western at Kansas City. Cheerleader Gedney, and Irwin Bakei, its staff, are making no effort for the biggest rally of the season thus far.
"We haven't decided just what we'll do yet," Gedney said this morning, "but I'd like, if possible, to spring some new sort of rooting activity at the coming rally. Somebody please sten forward with suggestions."
If such arrangements can possibly be made, the K. U. band will lead a parade of rooters up Massachusetts Street to the station, where songs, speeches, and cheers will be pulled off before the team's car. Cheerleader Gedney hopes to announce definite plans tomorrow.
Returning from Ames, the team will take the interurban to Des Moines, and leave that city at 11:30 Saturday night. The squad will arrive in Lawrence at 10:20 o'clock Sunday morning.

REPORT OTHER CASES
Four More Students at Sanity Club Have Typhoid
Four students who returned to their homes last week because of illness have typhoid fever, University authorities state today. The students who returned home when symptoms of the disease were seen are: Zell McCormick, 25, of Hutchinson; c'20, both of Hutchinson; Vorne Bramwell; c'20, of Pretty Prairie, and J. B. Bennet, c'17, of Pratt, Kansas. The condition of the students at the University hospital who have developed typhoid is little changed today. One suspect was taken in today to the university tomorrow to inform it tomorrow whether he has typhoid.
The plea for vaccination has been renewed by Doctor Sundwall in spite of the fact that sixty-seven women were inoculated yesterday afternoon. The authorities can handle many more applicants in one day than they would in two weeks or week and Dr. Sundwall is urging students to take the treatment at once.
Steps to stamp out the disease have been taken in all of the cities of Kandahar, Turkmenistan and Dean Crumbine has written the physicians in the three cities to which students were sent urging them to take measures to prevent spread of the disease.
J. E. Welker, assistant professor of sanitary engineering, is continuing an investigation for the state board to determine the source of the disease.
COUNTY CLUBS ORGANIZE
Practically All Counties in State Represented
The County Club union took on new life today when W. M. Glasa, president of the organization, announced that practically every county in the state would host a county club. An upperclassman from each county will be appointed this week from every county that his students on the Hill. This appointee will organize the men from his county to attend a conference which will co-operate with the Union.
Two years ago there were fifty counties represented, including every county except some scattered ones in the extreme western part of the state. Last year the county clubs held banquets at the school's Christmas holidays. The purpose of these meetings is to show high school seniors what a good school the University is and to get old graduates interested in the school generally, graduates and high school seniors are invited to these banquets.
This year Glasco intends to send letters to all of the Kansas state schools asking them to organize and to co-ordinate a special Club Union. He believes that there is room in this school for at least seventy-five county organizations the coming year. Two years ago the city clubs had a special convocation.
This fall the county clubs expect to organize so that they can work for the mill tax when they return home in December. The Men's Student will co-operate with the clubs in their fight for the mill tax. A list of men appointed from each county will appear in the Kansan in a few days.
Dykstra Starts Lectures
Prof. C. A. Dykstra, of the department of political science, started a series of six lectures in Leavantown last night on "The American Citizen." Prof. C. G. Dunlap opened his lecture course on "Literary Criticism" last Friday night at the same place. The work is being conducted under the supervision of the University Extension Division.

HOLD CHAPEL AT 10:10
Cabinet Votes 40-Minute Class Periods for Convocation Days
CLASSES STAY AT 8:30
ruling Passes Unanimously Against Change Back to 8
Forty-minute class periods on the morning of the semi-monthly convoction, was the plan adopted yesterday afternoon at a meeting of the Chancellor's Council and of dividing the class periods when chapel is held. It was voted to have convocation on the second and fourth Fridays of each month for the first semester to determine whether the all-important degree is worth develving so much time to.
Under the new plan, chapel will last for
two years. The choir schedule and
schedule for these occasions follows:
Second class, 9:20 to 10.
Corvocation, 10:10 to 10:50.
Third class, 11 to 11:40.
Fourth class, 11:50 to 12:30.
It was also decided at the ce
meeting not to change the time b' be-
needed to the afternoon to 8 o'clock.
There has been considerable
sentiment among some of the faculty
members to start the morning classes
at 8 o'clock since chapel has been
discontinued but the motion to let the
club open is now in the cabin
by a, unanimous vote.
The matter was discussed by the University Senate at the time the custom was abandoned but it was reopened in 1982 and the incarcerator's cabinet for final settlement.
Dr. W. L. Burdick, who was appointed vice-chancellor of the University last summer, will deliver the address at the convocation Friday. He has not yet announced his subject, but he used all students and faculty members to take notice of the ruling of the cabinet yesterday and remember that chapel starts at 10:10, instead of 10:30 as it previously did.
