THE SUMMER SESSION KANSAN
TELL WHY THEY COME
More Professors Here Says Dean Kelly
CALENDAR
A large number of students coming from universities larger than the University of Kansas and situated in cities larger than Lawrence is a feature of the Summer Session. Dean Roberts says to the cause gave three reasons.
"First," said the Dean, "there is a larger number of professors having full professorships giving instruction here this summer than at most universities. Neighboring institutions let their professors off during Summer School for vacation and keep the assistants, while here the order is required. The summer students a wide variety of courses, and as a third, the University meets the requirements for every grade of teachers certificates."
Friday, June 23, 8:30 p. m., on the campus, Coburn Players in "The Yellow Jacket."
C. B. Johnson, one of the three students from Northwestern University taking anatomy in the Summer Session said that his University does not offer this work during the summer, and that Kansas is one of the four universities in the country which does, "The equipment and facilities here," he said, "are up to the most modern standards." There are students enrolled from California, Minnesota and Texas.

"Garden of Allah" Pleases
JARED ALAN Pleases
The best attended movie pavilion given by the Summer Session was the three reels of "The Garden of Allah" shown Wednesday afternoon at Fraser. Fully eight hundred people saw the pictures. The series took one from Marseilles, the loading of the movie men's auto was shown, to the beautiful garden in the Sudan. En route one saw the Mediterranean, drives in Algiers, ancient Roman cities built by Trajanus, Mohammednned priests, the stately camels on their long pilgrimages, the mighty Sahara, and last, the Garden of Allah, itself. The latter consists of parks, villages, fields—a scene more beautiful than one can hardly imagina in Africa.

Captain Topham is now with his regiment "somewhere in Mexico." His family lives at Fort D. A. Russell, Wyoming, where he was stationed until his regiment was sent with General Pershing's expedition.
MUCH BASKETBALL PEP
Summer Teams May be Organized Soon
The Summer Session will be represented by a first-class basketball team if present interest in the game is considered, the opinion of Dr. James Naimshi.
"I am well pleased with the interest taken by the men," he said last evening. "I wish that baseball fans could be as enthusiastic as these men. Every day now some of them are working out. I believe there will be a good team. We have material that was considered the best last winter, and other material that will make good with very little practice."
A pop-fest will be held later in the week. At this meeting, the team will be organized and arrangements made for future games. It is hoped that a tournament will be for the end of the week with Haskell, Y. M. C. A., or the city high school.
"The new basketball rules, just recently published, are being adopted all around the world, even in China," says Dr. James Naimish of the department of physical education, who was a member of the committee on rules. Different sets of rules were formerly made by the colleges, the A. A. U. and the Y. M. C. A., but this year they were combined into one set.
Arrangements are being made to secure for the department of German a complete set of all the edited texts in German published by the best known publishers. These books will be placed where they can be examined by the text book commission and students in search of the best German texts available. The department now has sets of texts published by the Holt, the Heath, the Macmillan, and the Ginn companies.

PLAN IMPROVEMENTS LOSE FOOTBALL MEN
The Board of Administration Will Consider a Special Appropriation
NEW CAMPUS ENTRANCE
May Connect University With Sixteenth Street
The meeting of the State Board of Administration which was to have been held last Monday, which was postponed is announced to meet this coming Monday, June the twenty-sixth and will continue in session so as to include the meeting of the presidents of the State Educational Institutions to assemble Thursday June the twenty-ninth.
Outside of the usual routine of considering the needs of the University for the coming year, the Board of Administration will be called upon to consider a special appropriation for the improvement of the campus. S. H. Hare, a landscape gardener of Kansas City has already prepared plans for improvement subject to the approval of the Board. The proposed improvements provide for the planting of trees, shrubs and perennials to add to the artistic beauty of the campus.
The Board will also consider the opening of the south approach to the campus and of putting it in shape to allow students to cently let by the City of Lawrence.
Two important positions on the summer school faculty must be filled owing to the K. N. G.'s being called for duty in the Mexican situation. Dr. James Naismith's position as head of the physical training department and University Physician must be filled for the summer at least if not indiefied. As the Dr. Naismith is chaplain of the Fewer College of Kansas. Prof. F. E. Jones' former end of the Fowler Shops must be filled to meet the emergency when Professor Jones leaves for the front as commander of Company M.
HASKELL ENROLLS 500
Courses Are Offered in the Most Practical Lines
More than five hundred teachers from Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Nebraska, and other bordering states will attend the Summer Session at the Haskell Institute which began, Monday and ends June 30.
A new and striking feature of the session this year is that the Douglas County Teachers' meeting will be held in connection with it. This combination will be advantageous to the teachers in that they will be given instruction for several classes which they would not be able to otherwise, such as library management, lace making, drafting, and domestic art.

At Least Seven Varsity Players Leave for the Front Today
WILL CAUSE EXTRA WORK
Olcott Searching for Material to Fill Their Places
And now comes a new "jinx" to cause Kansas to lose some football games. This time it is the orders for the militia to go to Mexico that is causing Coach Hermann Olcott to worry about his line-up for the games this fall.
The orders for mobilization take men from every department of Olcott's football team including his best prospects for a punter and drop kicker. The backfield and the ends of the line are suffering most and the players coming to have a nice little time finding out how he responds to his men that have gone to defend the national colors instead of the K. U. colors.
Woodward, Hart, Foster, Shinn, Minor, Smith and Fire are the men that had their names on enlistment papers before the war broke out. No additional men have enlisted in their home towns as far as Coach Olicott and Coach Wise, but he had it for a fit that Scrubby Laslett, Coach Olicott's best bet at end, had enlisted but the rumor was found to be without foundation.
The loss of these men is causing Coach Olcott quite a little worry. Four of the seven men were on the freshman squad under Coach McCarty last fall and made showings that would insure them positions on Coach Olcott's regular squad this year. Rook Woodward played freshman football, basketball and baseball. In football he landed the fullback position and his punting and dropkicking was of the first-class variety. Foster was the quarterback whom Coach Olcott had counted on to pilot the team in case Walter Wood was unable to return. Shinn made a splendid showing on end on the freshman team and he was counted on as the only man who could fill Bonnie Reber's shoes. He and Laslett would have made a pair of ends that would have caused a lot of trouble and notoriety in the Valley. Frost won his letter in the tackle position last year and expected to try for a second letter this year. The work with which he won his first letter would insure him of a second letter this year.
Exceptional Bargains
"We are losing a lot of good men this week," said Coach Occlott last night. "I had a big bunch of sophormes lined up for this fall and everyone of them made good in their first year in the University on the freshman squad. I am not sure how many of my men are affected by the order but I am hoping there are no more than we have counted on.

"But it is not so bad as it might be. It will only cause us to work just a little harder next fall and get a few more men out for places than ever before. Other teams in the Missouri Valley will surely be affected the same away so we will have to take our medicine with the rest of them."
Tony James, 1915 captain, has also enlisted. He is a member of the First Regiment Band and enjoys the official title of cook. And they say that his cooking classes up with his football playing.

PLANS STORY BOOK
OF EACH STUDE'S LIFE
A new system for keeping the transcript of records has been adopted in the Registrar's office. The new transcript will be in pamphlet form and will be given to students at the end of each semester. At the end of the year these will be exchanged for the transcript sheet.
The pamphlet will be about five inches long and three inches wide.
The binding will be of substantial paper. The grades will be recorded accurately and kept on file as usual. This system is expected to be much better than the old one. Each year there is a great deal of confusion between the two forms of fourth sheet will be furnished to the dent at the end of the year and if lost second copies can be had for a fee of twenty-five cents each.
