WILL DISCUSS DATE RULES
Landladies of Women's Roaming Houses to Meet
It is expected that the landlads of the University women will adopt several resolutions at the annual meeting at Meyers Hall Thursday afternoon at three o'clock. One will be addressed to the Pan-hellenic council asking the freshmen pledged to the different sororities be not asked allowed to leave the room they have secured for one semester, or protected the landlades in that they can rent rooms without losing the revenue-by having them vacated immediately after the sorority rushing season is over.
Mrs. Brown, adviser of women, has asked George O. Foster, registrar, to speak on the regulations governing the rooming houses. Mrs. J. Van Arsdale will tell whether it is possible for a landlady to enforce the regulations of the Women's Student Government Association, tabooing week night dates, and still be popular with the girls.
Mrs. Custer will discuss the "Problem of the Graduate Student." It seems that since the co-eds in the graduate school do not have representation in the Women's Government Association consequently they do not have to observe the same rules that the other students
In the opinion of Mrs. Brown, such discrimination is likely to have a demoralizing influence in the successful enforcement of the co-ed regulations, when the older girls can have liberties not allowed to undergraduates. Mrs. Olive Brush will discuss the system started last fall of having students sign contracts for their rooms.
Colleges and Universities Will Have Senior Divisions
TO TRAIN ARMY OFFICERS
The establishment and maintenance of a reserve officers' training corps in civil educational institutions was provided for with the passage by congress of the Hay military bill on March 23.
Under Section 18 of the Hay bill, the reserve officers' training corps shall consist of a senior division organized at universities and colleges requiring four years of collegiate study for a degree, including those state institutions that are required to provide military instruction in military tactics under the act of congress of July 2. 1862.
The bill further provides that the president of the United States may, upon the agreement of the authorities of any college other than the Land-grant universities, establish and maintain at such institutions one or more units of the reserve officers' training corps.
MADE KANSAS "FREE"
The secretary of war is authorized to prescribe standard courses in theoretical and practical military training.
(Continued from page 1)
In time of war, the president may order reserve officers appointed under the provisions of this section to active service with any of the military forces of the United States or not below that of second lieutenant, and on active duty subject to the rules and articles of war.
gested. Before six months had pass his paper had become the ordeal of the free-state men in the territory and in September, 1855 largely through the work of the Free State and its editors, who carefully followed Lincoln's advice, the State party was unable to organize itself until she was the one which later won out in Territorial politics. R. G. Elliott, one of the founders of the Free State, still lives in Lawrence, now in his eighty-eighth year
SELLING
According to Mr. Flint, practically no one were established primarily "to make Kansas free." The newspaper men all came to "grow up with the country" and to make money by speculating in town sites. In fact, the Territorial newspaper was often a party to a lot of get-rich-quick schemes. These consisted of advertising a fictitious town staked out on the naked prairie miles from civilization, and selling lots at fabulous price on eastern investors. The early papers soon became political journals and aside from this sort of transaction were pretty honest and clean.
The history also contains an account of a number of women journalists in Territorial days. Mrs. Sara T. L. Robinson, wife of Governor Robinson, was among the first to gain recognition. Another, J. A. Cody, who was the Grasshopper, and Chris Wheelbooper; Mrs. Susie Crane Voelg edited the Western Spy; Mrs. Mary Abbott helped edit the Wyandot Citizen; Mrs. C. P. Chapman "covered" the Topela legislature as a reporter in 1865; and Mrs. Clarinda Irene Howard Nichols was associate editor of the Quindaro Chindawan. Mrs. Nichols was an experienced newspaper woman in Vermont before composing to Kansas. By skillful lobbying in the Wyandot constitutional convention in July, 1859, she had many advanced rights for women incorporated in the Wyandot constitution.
TO PUBLISH WORK
The history contains seventeen chapters dealing with the free-state and pro-slavery editors, the technical side of the early papers, the work done by the Northern and Southern press for and against free Kansas, the destruction of free-state papers by border ruffians, and a complete history of every paper that lived between 1854 and 1861. It also contains many newspaper yarns and early Kansas editors, a particularly attention-grabbing famous Law-ful hand of Freedom." A copy of the thesis, which will probably be published, has been left with the Kansas State Historical Society at Topeka for the information of editors and others interested in early Kansas journalism.

McCARTY FOR LEAGUE
Baseball Coach Says H. H. Organization Trains Varsity Players
"I am greatly in favor of the Hash House League," said Leon B. McCarty, Varsity baseball coach this morning, and said he would not give up this year. Such a league is of great service in training men for Varsity baseball. There are quite a number of aspirate this year who have played inayers if they just had more experience.
"If my time were not so taken up this semester I would be glad to help organize the league myself, but it seems to me that this work can best be done by the players themselves, as they are most interested in it."
As to places to play, Coach McCarty said that the two diamonds on Hamilton Field could be used, as well as the lot north of MeCook, the pasture on Massachusetts street, and a number of other places about town.
"If a little thought and reason is used in making out the schedule, I can see no reason why the league should not continue. Bad weather was the cause of most of the trouble last year, making it necessary for the teams to double their schedules in some places. It is high time for the plans to transition to be under way, and I sincerely hope that the league is a success this year, as there is a need of experience among our coming Varsity material."
The league will be organized Thursday night at 7:30 in the Kansasman. Any club, whether a member last year or not is invited to attend.
WOMEN TRAIN FOR MEET
Next Semester's Basket-tossers Will Start Work Soon
