ILLINOIS DEFEATS K. U
Despite Plucky Game Kansas Failed to Score Saturday
JAYHAWKER LINE STRONG
Varsity Played Consistent Game
With Score of 30 to 0
Outclassed in a game with the heavier, faster, more-experienced University of Illinois team Kanasa played against the opposing day and played it as though she had been winning. The offensive, however, proved dreadfully weak when pitted against the massive Illini line. The defense, however, was able to make a first down.
Captain Macomber led the Illini in good fashion. His men fumbled occasionally but did well enough, considering the weather. The Kansans were completely outclassed and early in the game it was seen they could not hope to make consistent gains against the Illini line. The athletes worked under great disadvantages because of the broiling sun, his apparel was unfit teams. Pouli Clark assistant coach Porcupine Jaywackers, was given a traveling bag and a bouquet of American beauties at a rousing reception before the contest.
KANSAS COULDN'T GAIN
KANSAS COUNTY
The ILLINOIS received the kicker' it but relinquished the ball after three ineffectual assaults on the Illini line. Two forward passes by Macombe made the gains which resulted in an Illinois touchdown, Macombe crossing the goal on a center back. The Indiana score again, he fumbles halted them.
ZUPPLE USED SUBSTITUTES
Halla's return of a punt for two five yards was a feature of the second quarter. This put Illinois in strikiness distance and Macomber passed Sternaman, who dodged across the line, Macomber missed the goal Klein's fumble of the kickoff gave the Jayhawks an Illinois territory first time. Their forward went wrong, however, and the Illini took the ball. The half close with Kansas about to kick from behind its own goal line.
ZUPPEK USED SUBSTITUTES
Beginning the third quarter Zuppe sent in practically a new eleven, replacing every 19th down. Burr's pass to Knock put the ball close to the Jayhaw goal. Macomber, who figured in all most every play, dropkicked a goal from the 20-yard line. The Illini reserves were in the Kansas danger zone when the third quarter ended.
JAYHAWKEN
Aided by an offside penalty, the Jayhawkers had the Illini for a time in the fourth quarter when anointed certain. The Kansas fourth gamely, but the Illinois pushed the ball over again Knop getting the touchdown after a succession of bucks. Macomber made the goal and soon afterward scored another touchdown himself.

Game Kansans Won
Respect of Illinois
"Kansas fought like fleens and gave all she had in her," says R. L. Grants sports editor of the Daily Illini, in a letter to the Kansas Sun sports department that Illinois simply proved too much for the Jayhawks. From the first blast of the whistle it was evident that Kansas was outclassed and that she would have to uphill game. That she did play it as though she had winning.
"The Kansas offense proved to be weaker than had been anticipated as they were only able to negotiate a first down on one occasion, that when Foster recovered a ball fumbled by one of the backs and carried it for ten or twelve yards. The Hailers forced the Jahywakers and fairly swept them off their feet before they had a chance to get started.
"The game was played under a sweltering sun which rendered snappy work impossible, as but both teams were as much handicapped in this re-

WIRELESS STATION HAS
NEW AERIAL EQUIPMENT
K. U. has a new nerial. Many pee people have said, "Why, I thought there was a wireless here, but where is it?" The old wireless extending from the Physics building to the smoke stack in the basement of the greenhouse during the summer between Fraser and the Physics Building is almost invisible because there are no spreaders. There are simply two wires twenty feet long and ninety feet from the bottom of the greenhouse into buildings, for receiving and sending wireless messages.
L. E. Whittemore, of the physics department, has charge of the wireless but so far this year has not handled it. However, he expects to later in the year.
Four-fifths of the seats in Robinson Gymnasium have been sold for the concert series which begins on thursday night with a concert by the Marmi brothers necessary to sell three thousand dollars worth of tickets to pay out on the course. This morning the ticket
"The series is primarily a student enterprise," said Dean Butler of the school of fine arts, "and we wish to sell to as many students as possible as well as townpeople. The students should realize just what the series most importantly means, that what it biggest thing in the middle west. No city offers such a group of famous stars as does the university concert course."
SEAT SALE INCREASES
$2,400.00 Worth of Tickets Al ready Sold for Opening Concert Course
To make possible the course to
the students the special rate of $2.50 has
been made. These tickets may be ex-
ported to their office for the
regular $3.50 tickets.
When Dean Butler took charge of the course last year he placed the management in the hands of Mr. Cox, who would have to be handled through his office. This year he got an appropriation of one thousand dollars from the University to carry out the course and possible the best in the concert line.
"The series costs us $3,425.00 for artists alone, and we are only selling three thousand dollars worth of tickets," said Mr. Butler. "But through this appropriation we are able to give the course at a very slight cost to the students and people of Lawrence. Figure it up and you will find that by our plan each concert only costs thirty-one cents.
COURT ORDERS PURCHASE
City of Lawrence Instructed to Purchase Waterworks
The city of Lawrence must issue $175,000 in bonds voted for the purchase of the city water plant last spring, in accordance with the decision handed down Saturday by the supreme court of Kansas. The decision followed a suit of mandamus filed by the water company to compel the city to issue bonds as敛 upon such laws as are the law of the bonds caused the commissioners to hesitate to issue the bonds.
The city commissioners have made no plans for the improvement of the water system, but it is understood that some action will be taken as soon as the property is taken over. The improvement of the water of Lawrence has long been sought by the residents and K. U. students will join with them in watching the management under municipal ownership.
Mars. Maria Dunham, national secretary of the Y. W. C. A., will give a short talk. Toasts will be made by Chancellor Strong, Mrs. Iustace Hazzel of Pompeii and of Pompeii Hazel Pratt; Mary Brownden will act as toastmistress.

Annual Y. W. C. A. Banquet
OUR OLD FRIEND P. C. CAUSES A VISITOR TO VISIT LONGER
Weather-Beaten P. C. Lacks Accuracy Displayed by Seismograph P. C. Set Daily by Wireless
Thinking that the physics clock was the official timepiece of the University of Kansas and that it could be depended upon for accuracy, a vist to the lab is scheduled by this time yesterday afternoon. He spent some time looking over the University and then went leisurely down town to catch a train, thinking he had thirty minutes left. The train. He missed the train more than fifteen minutes.
Had he known the secrets of the University he could have set his watch accurately in the lower hall of the Physics Building. This clock was built by the university, known as the seismograph clock and is set daily by wireless. The timepiece has a record for accuracy inasmuch as it is adjustable to oneenth of a second. Any error in the recording of the diagraph case at the time of setting.
REFLECT GAY BOHEMIA
Journalists Give a Distinctive Supper-Dance in Robin-son Gym
Arguments on the correct time may be settled by the physics clock, but our advice to strangers as well as us should not see that the right p. c. is consulted.
The old friend on the outside of the building commonly designated as the p. c., is in decided contrast to the seismograph clock. It has been known to be accurate on certain occasions, but it is not so good. It is less feeble and has a partiality to rest. In fact, it prefers to rest most of the time.
The element of the distinctive and the unique was held to through the evening, even to the unique diction of the music, the tickets may be had of those man at the door." Subdued light softened the multi-colored Bohemian decorations and somehow carried a little bit of pride as the dancers entered the gym.
son Gym.
The first surprise of the program came after the third dance. The syspated rythm had stopped ding and the pianist began to play the gym, danced along the overhead track and picked up a white-robbed figure. It flickered to the right and to the left and picked up two more Greek co-eds gliding toward the first Help piano. In the second piano the trio of Sirens" sang "Harmonica" from "Carmen."
"Gee-lorious" is the one exclamation that sidues up to an adequate description of the journalist students cabaret supper-dance in Robinsonville. The newspaper makers, pioselean hoplites who attended the first annual Bohemian affair of the newspaper makers. So echo a hand full of faculty members, there as chapelmen. At the cabaret setting that drew the dance from the ordinary into the unique.
Floyd Hart, e18, who had brought over the spot light to aid the scribes' show, focused the glare again on the Sirens as the applause greeed louder and the starlight to the "Hallam Street Song" from "Naughty Marietta" was sung.
Still more of the syncopated offering. More encores. Then the floor was cleared and Anna Forsythe and J. B. McNaught gave two dances, "Camp de Bohemien" and "Danse de Gondoliers," the second an encore number. The third, a dance of despair and despite lack of background gave a much appreciated performance.
More and more syncapation and syncapating. Encores a don’tlesteopten. A little platform was inside the room. Hart focused his spot and Miss Gladys Elliott in costume gave a delightful representation of a Highland lass. It was all there but the heather and the Gaelic. The orchestra had known rage time so well did the dancing and the Scot’s music blend.
More syncopated rhythm followed.
Possibly that record of seventeen encores for one dance number was not broken, but it was dangerously near a compound fracture several t.
The second surprise made an exclamation of rage and consisted of a violin solo by Florence Cook. Refreshments were being served at quartet tables in the east end of the hall by this time and Miss Cook, dressed in a colorful Bohemian costume, brown hair ggy style, played "Dance Coquette" by Traumer" was the encore song.
The party was chaperoned by Mrs. Eustace Brown, Prof. and Mrs. Mark Skidmore, Prof. and Mrs. L. N. Flint, Prof. and Mrs. W. Yums, Prof. and Mrs. S. Rice, Happy three piece orchestra furnished the music. The committee that arranged the party and managed it; Edwin Hullinger, Jack Carter, Henry Pegus, Mrs. Dorothy Cola Henry Pegus, Alice Bowlby and Don Davis.
The scribes should not forget the aid given by Hazel Longabaugh accompanist for the "Sirens", or Helen Topping who was accompanist for Miss Forsyth and Mr. McNaught. The journalists greatly appreciated their work in making the dance the measure of pleasure it was.
Copies of the "Midnight Journalist," a miniature paper published by the Associated Journalists, were sold on the dance floor at midnight.
Charles Slawson, c20, accompanied his parents on an auto trip to Topeka Sunday.
WANTED TO BUY TRAIN
Battling Mack, Prize-Fighter Delays Homeward Bound K. U. Team
Those K. U. students that happened to be on the o'ton clock Santa Fe last night had reserved seats for a little amateur vanville between the conductor and "Battling Mack," the professor of physics. The general opinion of those present was that Mack was not quite himself last night. He was on the wrestraut and the conductor tried to convince him of that, but nevertheless the prizefighter ran it up to Olathe by the way of dirt roads and back fences.
One fellow got quite friendly with "Mack" and he had good cause to as "Mack" had nine hundred dollars in four paper bills and the friend was broke and had no ticket. Of course the good hearted Mack championed the cause of his newly made friend when the conductor insisted upon collating his bill from the professional "bum". Mack tendered the conductor a five hundred bill, but slowly he regained his lost senses and offered a $20 bill.
The train stopped at Holiday and remained for some time. The conductor had Mack's money; consequently the pugilist followed him off and demanded his money back or a receipt much to the discomfort of the police, words ensued for ten or fifteen minutes and then a little tussle continued to delay the train much to the disgust of the football team which was in the last car and could not witness the struggle. The conductor came out victorious and when the train pulled into, Lawrence Mack was consoling himself with his friend was still on the train and his own anatomy was still intact.

MORE CASES DEVELOP
Howard Harper and Harvey McKibbins Down With Typhoid
INOCULATION CONTINUES
Eighty Students Take Treatment Friday

Howard Harper and Harvey McKibbins, both of whom ate at the same club as did Burness Sharp, a case was filed to develop have cases of real typhoid. Authority stated this morning. Four other students from the same c have gone home on account of probable cases.
CONDUCTING FOOD INSPECTION
"We are not certain as yet that contaminated drinking water is the cause of fever," Dr. John Sundwalt, physician in charge, said this morning. However both the drinking water and the milk used by these people is under especial investigation. Other food sources of infection or carriers of disease are also under the inspection of the authorities."
"While the condition of Sharpe is still quite serious the recently developed carer Harper and Mei" said the nurse in charge this noon.
STUDENTS
"The students evidently want the situation seriously," said Dr. Sundwall. "The Hospital gave eighty inoculations, Friday, while few had been treated before the development of the present cases." There is no cause for alarm in these cases for their morites have the situation well in hand. However, no student can take the chance of contracting a serious disease. Besides being inoculated, most students publicly articles twenty and twenty-one in the Students Health Bulletin in order to avoid infection:
"Uncooked food or any to which flies have had access are likely to contain typhoid germs. Always wash your hands before eating and don't use the common drinking cup," says Tealth Bulletin.

"It is quite possible for a person *carry typhoon* from ten to twenty years after infection and to 1 stantly throwing out the d continued Dr. Sundwall. "It is especially true that cooks or being to the preparation of food may disseminate the disease after their infection."
