VOLUME II.
IT IS BRUTAL
PRESIDENT ELLIOTT OF HARVARD DENOUNCES FOOTBALL.
Says it has Reached a Point Impossible to Reform.
The American game of football as now played is wholly unfit for colleges and schools, according to an opinion expressed by President Charles W. Eliot of Harvard university in his annual report to the board of overseers of the university, which was made public today.
He declares that as a spectacle for persons who know the game, football is more brutalizing than prize fighting, cock fighting or bull fighting. And for the contestants he believes the rules governing football to be far less humane than the rules which govern the prize ring. He adds that it is childish to suppose that the athletic authorities, which have permitted football to become a brutal, cheating, demoralizing game, can be trusted to reform it.
The report declares that the game has reached a point where it sets up a wrong kind of hero; that there is no such thing as generosity between combatants any more than in war; and that all the evils of football have descended into the secondary schools, where they are working great moral mischief.
College World.
No more sororities at Drake. Recently a sorority was secretly organized there, but somehow the news came to the ears of the president, who served notice on the members that they must take their choice of leaving the sorority or the University. Now they call themselves the Dennis club.
The Missouri Independent says that less than 1,600 students are enrolled at Columbia. They celebrated the other day on reaching the 2,000 mark in enrollment, by counting the students enrolled in the Rolla School of Mines, those in the summer school and those enrolled in the short course in agriculture. Kansas is still ahead of her sister institution, for we can count 1,600 without taking the agricultural school.
The University of Iowa has made arrangements whereby students working on the Iowan, the university paper, will receive college credit for work done.
California is insisting that a graduate system of coaching her athletic teams be decided upon and adhered to. They say, "Let us no longer be blinded by the glamor of the football teachers from the effete East, but let us build up a system of graduate coaches that will surpass anything in the country." Good for California!
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FEBRUARY 3, 1906.
Chi Omega Party.
One of the most enjoyable spring parties of the year was given by Chi Omega last night in Fraternal Aid hall. Newhouse's town orchestra with the addition of four out of town musicians furnished the music. There were twenty-two dances on the program. The programs were done in white with the Chi Omega gold monogram on the front and were given out by Gertrude Eson and Madge Kennedy. Ida Ahlborn and Otto Phein led the grand march. Delicious refreshments, consisting of chicken salad, olives, sandwiches and coffee, were served during the intermission, and green gage ice was served from two tables in the main hall. Ninety couples were present, among whom were the following out of town guests: Maude and Mayme Wiseley, Blue Mound; Bess Kinne, Milan; Ethel Murphy, Iola; Alberta Halbert, Parsons; Pluma Mapes, Kansas City; Hubert Hudson, Fredonia; Rupert Renn, Dallas, Texas.
Adopt Changes in Rules.
Chicago and Northwestern Universities have adopted the changes made a few days ago by the representatives of the big nine. At a faculty meeting of each institution all the rules were adopted and the professors of Chicago even went so far as to express a wish to abolish the game for two years. A copy of the resolutions was drawn up and sent to all the schools of the big nine with the request that an agreement be entered into abolishing the game for two years. At Northwestern nothing was mentioned about quitting the game, but it is quite likely she will follow Chicago's lead. At the present moment it looks as though Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri will be the only schools in the west that keep football.
Hon. T. M. Potter Speaks.
Hon. T. M. Potter, Vice President of the Board of Regents spoke in chapel yesterday on the present status of religion. He based his talk on a recent magazine statement that "only women, children and the feeble minded believed in religion as it is now taught." "There is nothing in the statement," declared Mr. Potter. "One has but to look around to see it. Nearly all the governors of our own State have been active Christians, as have been the greatest statesmen of our nation. Darwin, in his later life, vainly regretted the atrophy of his ethical nature."

Missouri Glee Club Has Twenty- One Members.
WILL SING IN CHAPEL.
The Missonri Glee club of twenty-one members will sing in Fraser Hall Tuesday night, and in chapel Tuesday morning. This is the first appearance of another college glee club at the University of Kansas. The club comes very well recommended and music lovers will no doubt be pleased with the program. The program is as follows:

"The Old Homestead" is a perfect transcript of life. Its characters are real people, whose troubles and joys are real as are their comedy and pathos which invariably beget laughter and tears. "The Old Homestead" will be presented at the opera house Wednesday, January 7.
CONTRACT LET.
Excavation for Rosedale Clinical Contracted.
The Board of Regents of the University in their meeting last evening at 7:30 awarded the excavating for the new clinical department in Rosedale to Turner Bros. at $3,400. By next fall the whole of the Kansas City branch of the K. U. Medical school will be transferred to Rosedale.
Michigan is very much wrought up over the question of what will become of Yost, should the suggestion of President Angell be acted upon—that of doing away with the professional coach. In a recent issue these words appear under a double column cut of Yost: "America's greatest football coach. Is he to be dropped by the university to which he has brought so much fame?"
HE WRITES VERSE.
Harry Kemp, the Wanderer, Has Poems in the New York Independent.
Harry Hibberd Kemp, the student recently from New York City, is author of a poem that appeared in the New York Independent Magazine last week. The poem, entitled "The Man Behind the Plow," shows keen verse ability. Kemp is getting along very well in the University. He is undoubtedly a genius and will some day make a place for himself if he applies his talents. The poem is as follows:
Bards have praised in song and lay men, whose office is to slay. Men who go intrepid where their foemen lurk;
But the man behind the plow is a hero, too, I trow—
He's the man that keeps them while they do the work.
Oh, the man behind the plow with the sun-tan on his brow;
His sole honor is the labor he has done.
But to shoot their brothers down is the glory and the crown
Of a million men that stand behind the gun!
'Tis a stirring thing, no doubt, with the enemy in rout,
To follow war-flags leading on before;
But the man who stays at home tilling the reluctant loam
Is the man who keeps the man who goes to war.
It is valorous to go where the warlike trumpets blow,
And the deadly shrapnel on its course is sped;
But it seems to me this man follows out a nobler plan
Than the man who knocks his brother in the head.
Then rememb'r when you hear drums and trumpets martial cheer,
That upon some little field the work is done,
In a simple humdrum way, toilsome day succeeding day,
That supports a man that marches with a gun.
Then apply it further still; all the shapers of world-will,
All the petty princlings who exact a bow,
All the fanfare of estate on which buttoned legions wait—
All depend upon the man behind the plow.
Engineering Lecture.
H. W. Jacobs, of Topeka, will lecture before the mechanical engineering society Monday, February 5, in Snow Hall, on recent improvements in machine manufacturing methods. Mr. Jacobs has been in charge of the introduction of new methods throughout the Santa Fe system, and is in a position to talk on the subject. The lecture will be concerned with the matters with which Mr. Jacobs has had practical experience in his work with the Santa Fe.
Harvard students, backed by New York capital, will manage and run an "ideal farm," to be located in the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1906
Is there anything so exasperating as the man who "jollies" when you are serious?
Attention is called to the prizes given by the Annual board for the best poem and story. Anyone having literary ability should enter this contest.
The programs sent ahead by the Missouri Glee club are the most artistic productions seen here for some time. Such programs as those advertise not only the Glee club, but the University from which they come.
The University has been fortunate this year in the number of high grade lectures given free to all students who wish to attend. Professor Paul Shorey's lecture was an excellent one, while the one given last Saturday night by Otto Nordenskjöld was certainly the most interesting free lecture ever given at the University. The large crowds that attend these lectures is the most gratifying thing to those who have the lectures in charge. Heretofore the University has brought prominent lecturers here to have them greeted by a handful of people, but this year the chapel has been comfortably filled and sometimes crowded. The secret of Professor Boodin's success in getting such crowds to the lectures is probably his wide and persistent advertising.

Rothrock, '00, of Chicago, while en route for the West, has been obliged to stop off in Lawrence on account of serious lung trouble contracted by too close confinement to his studies while attending Rush Medical College in Chicago. That Dr. Rothrock may speedily recover his former good health is the wish of his many friends.
Verne Mitchell, '03, of Delphos, Kansas, makes a specialty of prescription compounding. That the general sundry department and the news depot receive likewise careful attention in his new store can readily be inferred.

Form a Religious Union.
A religious and philosophical union was organized Friday at 4:30 by the instructors and upperclassmen of the University. The faculty was represented by Professors Carruth, Boodin, Wilcox, and Hodder. Chester Leinbach was elected president of the organization. The object of the union, as stated in the constitution, is "To encourage the study, discussion and practice of religion and philosophy." It is modeled after the Harvard union in the respect that the work is mostly local and the meetings held semimonthly. The union is open to any instructor, student or alum-
mus of the University of Kansas.
The University is composed mostly of religious young men and women and the faculty for the most part are active church workers. The work of the union will, of course, not be limited to discussions of the students and faculty but noted lecturers and ministers will be called upon for lectures and discussions from time to time.

Exams Thin Out Eligible Track Men.
HARD LUCK.
Three members of the track team, who have been working hard to get in condition for the Convention Hall meet are among those who failed in the examinations. Parker, who outclassed all his opponents in the high jump last year; Dennis and Wallace of the sprinters; are ineligible for the team on account of "flunks." However Parker is taking a special course which will last a month. At the end of that time, if he passes a special "exam" he may remove his disability. It will mean double work for Parker, in a course where many failed, but he is willing to burn midnight gas in order to get the examination. "Capt." Young was sick examination week and the faculty is encamped on his trail. He is working hard and undoubtedly will be able to pass all the special "exams." Commons, it is said, is ineligible on account of entrance requirements. Captain "Jerry" Driscoll is, of course, very "blue" over the loss of many of his best men, but is busy filling up the vacancies.
Driscoll has been training the candidates a month for the Convention Hall meet, and remarkable results have been accomplished. All the men in the University who can run or think they can run should report at the gymnasium, 4:30 Tuesday afternoon. Captain Driscoll will then arrange work for all new men who wish to try out for the track team.

REPEATING SHOT GUN
NEW MODEL NO.17
Marlin
Here is the cheapest good gun yet made. By the omission of the take down feature we have been able to greatly reduce the cost of production and at the same time have kept the gun up to the famous high Martin standard of strength, safety and durability. Notice the clean simplicity of this gun. The workmanship and finish are perfect. The weight is only 7 pounds. The full choke barrels are especially bored for smokeless as well as black powder and so chambered that $2\frac{3}{4}$ inch or $2\frac{1}{4}$ inch shells may be used. Several improvements in the operating parts make it the easiest, most reliable and best working gun in existence. We are glad to make it possible for every lover of guns and bird shooting to get this high grade repeating shotgun at so low a price.

TRIAL DEBATES
NINETEEN MEN TRYING FOR SQUAD.
Law School Has Twelve Representatives---Baker Will Defend Enforcement of Monroe Doctrine.
The representatives of the literary clubs of the University have been trying out in the series of preliminary debates every day this week. The number of candidates for the teams is smaller than usual this year, none of the societies having a full quota in the preliminaries. Of the nineteen men who have been debating before the judges this week twelve are law school men. Last year the law students were in the minority in the trials and only one lawyer made the teams.
Of the candidates, two, H. J. Bischoff and John Gage, are from X. Y. Z. Snow is represented by C. A. Ramsey, Roy Stockwell, Walter Lindsey and H. F. Roller. The Athenian Senate has four representatives, three of them being members of the law school. They are: W. J. Luckey, J. W. Blood, John Jones and Clyde Commons. The representatives of the law school clubs are: Eiler, Stryker, Howell, McWilliams, John Roaten, Ernest Disney, Wilburn Parker, J. A. Sutton and Clyde Souders.
The Baker question has been the battle ground in the trials, the last of which will be held Friday. The results of the trials will be announced as soon as the judges, Professors Hodder, Becker and Burdick can compare rankings. The debaters have shown up well in the discussions and there seems to be plenty of material for three strong teams, Ramsey and Parker were on the victorious teams last year,and Blood is an experienced debater of considerable fame from the State Normal.
Baker University sent notice to the debating council Monday that she would defend the negative side of the Baker-Kansas question, "Resolved, That the South American Republics should be free to accept or reject the Monroe Doctrine."
Noted Lecturer Coming.
Professor Edward S. Bourne of Yale University, who will lecture in Fraser Hall, Friday evening, is one of the foremost men in the field of history in this country. Much of his work has been in the field which forms the subject of his lecture, "The Spanish Empire." He has just published a volume on this subject in the new history of the American nation, entitled "The Spanish in America," and has edited the series of Philippine papers and documents.
Professor Bourne is an excellent lecturer and has given during the last few years the most notable addresses before the American Historical Association.
BASKET BALL BOYS AWAY.
Will Leave on Thursday for Eastern Trip.
The basket ball team starts on its eastern tour Thursday afternoon. The Wyandotte Athletic Club will be played Thursday night, the Independence Athletic Association on Friday evening, and the Kansas City Y.M.C.A.Saturday evening. The next week will be consumed on the trip. The games are:

The Nebraska, Evanston and Central games will be the three hardest games on the schedule. The men who will make the trip are: Barlow, W. Miller, and Allen, forwards, Siler and Bergen centers, M. Miller, Winnagle and Johnson, guards. "Andy" Brown will probably be taken on the trip for substitute guard and referee. Manager Lansdon will accompany the team.
COMMERCIAL ENGINEERING.
H. W. Jacobs of the Santa Fe Talks to Engineers.
Monday afternoon Mr. H. W. Jacobs, Engineer of Shop Methods and Tools, of the Santa Fe Railway System delivered an illustrated lecture before the Mechanical Engineering Society on "Commercial Engineering." Mr. Jacobs said: "The Engineer of today who is not able to take hold of a proposition and figure results from a business standpoint is very liable to get left."
He emphatically cautioned the technical graduate of the fact that it is not how nice he can sketch a plan or how clearly he can elucidate upon the theories of applied mechanics; but how much of a saving can he show in shop management? How much can he cheapen the production of some set article? What can he do to help tone up the plant so that the best results can be obtained from his particular department? Be on the lookout for improvements in methods of all kinds at all times. Illustrations of many improvements made in machines and trains of gearing used for reducing the time for certain operations were shown. The modern "high speed" steel tools and tool-holders used in these
operations were compared to the old carbon steel tools used in a like manner.
Mr. Jacobs has made a phenomenal rise in the engineering world. He began life as an apprentice to a machinist with no technical education and a limited general education but in 15 years he has risen to one of the most important positions in the gift of the Santa Fe railway. He is a practical man and has a scorn for the theorist who cannot do things. He is one of the few men without a technical education to be elected to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
CREDIT TO MANDOLIN CLUB.
Sam McReynolds and Heim Goldman Brought Missourians to Lawrence.
The Mandolin club, under the management of S. McReynolds and the directorship of Heim Goldman, did a great service for the University in bringing the Missouri Glee club to Lawrence. Not only were the students given an opportunity of hearing a musical organization from a sister institution, but the road was paved for more cordial relations with our Missouri rivals.
[Picture of a young man in a suit].
HEIM GOLDMAN.
Most of the credit of the venture belongs to S. McReynolds. McReynolds spent a great amount of time in correspondence and planning for the visitors entertainment and his success was well merited. Mr. Goldman, director of the club was also instrumental in bringing the Missourians to Lawrence From now on his efforts will be directed toward preparing the Club for the return concert to be given in Columbia in the near future.
NEW MEDICAL PROFESSOR.
Dr. Sudler to be Professor of Anatomy.
Dr. Merwin T. Sudler, who was elected Professor of Anatomy here last spring to succeed Dr.G.H. Hoxie, arrived here from New York Monday. Dr. Sudler is a promising man for the place and has had considerable training. Before coming here he was on the hospital staff at "St. Mary's Free Hospital" for children in New York. He
was instructor in anatomy at Cornell University before he went to New York.
It was announced a few weeks ago that Dr. Sudler would be the new dean of the medical school at this place. It is probable that he will be promoted to that place after he has become acquainted with the surroundings, but for the present he is professor of anatomy.
MISSOURIANS MAKE HIT.
The Glee Club Gets a Good House. Program Pleased All.
The concert given Tuesday night by the Missouri Glee club under the auspices of the K. U. Mandolin club was a success financially and otherwise. The total number of tickets given out was about four hundred. The audience arrived promptly and for the most part in accordance with Professor Hopkins' suggestion in chapel in the morning "as we should come in coeducation." The Mandolin club gave a guarantee of about $112. This amount was secured with a little additional profit. The program included fourteen numbers and several extra selections were given in response to encores.
The solo work of Mr. Morton M. Prentiss received especial mention and he was encored repeatedly. That of S. A. Dew, in "My Son Lou" was also enthusiastically received. Two vocal solos were rendered by Professor Fritz Krull, director of the club. The local hits in "The Ways They Have in Lawrence" brought down the house. The chorus work of the Missouri Glee club can not be considered superior to that of our own club, but their selections are conceded to be better. They are also fortunate in the possession of such an exceptional singer as Mr. Prentiss. The humorous part of the program is conceded to be very clever.
The programs were ten-page pamphlets which were printed for the club at the expense of the University of Missouri. They contained a number of views of the campus and buildings at Columbia and a group picture of the glee club. On the first page their college song is printed. This is something along the line of the series of views which the University of Kansas is preparing to distribute in pamphlet form.
After the concert a reception was given in Fraternal Aid hall under the joint auspices of the Betas, Sig Alphs, Sigma Chis, and the K. U. Mandolin club. The members of the Missouri Glee club were entertained last night by individual members of the Mandolin club. They left Lawrence this morning at 5:27 on their way to visit several points in Missouri before returning to Columbia.

If the Missourians can't beat us in football, it is agreed that they can out-sing us.
The Missouri glee club was all that it was advertised to be. There was not a poor voice among the twenty-one members and the choice of songs could not have been better.
The training table costs $1,300 this year. What improvement we could make on McCook field if that sum could be expended there instead of feeding sixteen men beefsteak and milk.
Considerable praise is due Manager Samuel McReynolds and Director Heim Goldman of the mandolin club for bringing the Missouri glee club to this place. It was a risk financially but they have come out ahead besides giving K.U. people a good musical program.
One lasting effect the present wave of football reform will probably have is the abolition of the training table. Nor will anything give more real satisfaction to all true lovers of the sport. The training table is undoubtedly a professional feature of amateur athletics. It is unnecessary because track men and basket ball men indulge in nearly as hard exercise as football without the training table. No feature of football has caused the trouble at K.U.for the last ten years that the training table has. Nothing has been harder than to get the men to pay their board bills in full. Nebraska has had the same trouble that Kansas has had. Let us take the lead and abolish the training table, no difference what other changes the "Big Nine" makes.
PROFESSOR HOPKINS SPEAKS.
Says Bitterness of Rivalry Characterizes Private Institutions.
Professor E. M. Hopkins, head of the English department of the University spoke in chapel yesterday on the relations of state institutions as compared to those of private schools and colleges.
"When two individuals, or two institutions, each trying to do the same things better than any other can do fall into company, an inspiriting contest is the result," said Professor Hopkins. "Selfishness and jealousy do not come into that atmosphere. When we find such things we may know that something is wrong with one or both. Such a fraternal relationship as exists between us and Missouri I am sure, is more characteristic of state institutions than of those supported by private endowment."
In closing, Professor Hopkins welcomed the Missouri Glee Club, and assured them that Kansas would try as hard to beat them in music next year as she ever did in athletics. The visiting glee club then sang a swinging college melody, and closed the chapel exercises by singing the M.S.U. version of "Carmen."

No Air in Natural Gas.
In addition to his other troubles, notably a batch of Geology I students to the number of 130, Professor Haworth has before him the task of persuading Kansas newspapers that the natural gas is not adulterated with ordinary air. In the first place the companies have no pumping stations installed as yet, and could not possibly pump air into the pipes. Professor Haworth is testing the gas frequently and any adulteration will be promptly detected and reported.

The course covering four years begins during the last week in September and continues until June. A preliminary training in natural science is of great advantage. All the classes are divided in small sections for recitations, laboratory and clinical bedside instruction. Students are admitted to advanced standing after passing the requisite examinations. The successful completion of the first year in any college or University recognized by the Regents of the State of New York as maintaining a satisfactory standard is sufficient to satisfy the requirements for admission which have lately been raised. The annual announcement giving full particulars will be mailed on application.

Lecture on Pompeii and St. Pierre.
Professor Kelsey of the University of Michigan will lecture in University Hall Saturday night on "Pompeii" and "St. Pierre." He will describe the ancient eruption of Vesuvius and the destruction of Pompeii and the late eruption of Mont Pelee and the destruction of St. Pierre and show what light can be thrown upon each by the other. The lecture will be illustrated by the stereoptician and will be free to all. It will be of interest to everybody and no one ought to miss it. It will appeal to students of science as well as literature, of modern as well as ancient times.
About two years ago Professor Kelsey lectured to an audience that crowded the chapel on the subject, "Some Recent Discoveries at Pompeii." Those who heard him then will not need to be assured of his power as a lecturer. Though his lectures give the result of hard work and serious investigation, they are entirely free from technicalities and are thoroughly interesting from beginning to end.

Kansan Board Gave Party.
We rather hate to speak of it, for fear some one will accuse us of blowing our own horn too much, but, honestly, the dance given by the Kansan Board Saturday was one of the most satisfactory affairs of the season, in our estimation. We didn't have many there, because I. O. O. F. hall doesn't hold very many, but we began early and danced until midnight, refreshed by punch and wafers, and we hope, and really think that everyone enjoyed the evening.
There is every probability that Dennis and Wallace will be able to make up their deficiencies and will be out on the track for work soon.
We have seven photographers now and are sure to get your pictures out on time. Squires.
Left on Concert Tour.
Miss Minnie L. Owens '05 left Lawrence Tuesday morning for Whiting, Kansas where she gave a recital Tuesday evening. From Whiting she started with the Bissing Concert Company of Topeka on a tour through western Kansas and Nebraska which will extend to March 3rd. Concerts in which Miss Owens will participate will be given each evening throughout the trip. Miss Owens studied for two years in the College of Emporia, then entered the School of Fine Arts here and graduated last June. Her graduating recital at the time attracted much attention not only from University people but from people outside who are interested in dramatic talent. During the present year Miss Owens has been doing special work in English and Journalism in the College and is a member of the Kansan Board and the K. U. Reading Club. She will go to Chicago next year for a further study of elocution.

615 Mass. St.
The "K" men of the University will give a dance in Fraternal Aid hall next Saturday evening. Last May a similar function was given by the boys who wear the coveted insignia of honor, and no doubt this year's affair will be as successful. Last spring the dance was limited to "K" men alone, but this year's dance will be open to all students.
Seniors! Remember Shelley will make you a better picture and give you as good rate as any photographer in Lawrence.
The following men wear "K's:" Brunner, Donald, Pooler, White, Heinzman, Waring. Angney, W.

Parker, Driscoll, and Butler, in track; Barlow, Winnagle, M. Miller, W. Miller, Brown Smith, and Alford, in basket ball.
Rev. L. G. Wilson, of Boston, Massachusetts, spoke a few minutes in chapel this morning on aims in life. "There are two ways to go about life," said Mr. Wilson; "you may follow Emerson's advice and 'hitch your wagon to a star,' or you may trundle it along as if your only purpose were to see it move. The former lofty purpose is what we need in this life. We need the spirit of romance which animated the masters of old to write great epics, to paint inspiring pictures, and to build lofty and imposing monuments. Interest, absorbing interest in our work is what makes life worth while."

Marlin
REPEATING SHOT GUN
NEW MODEL NO17
Here is the cheapest good gun yet made. By the omission of the take down feature we have been able to greatly reduce the cost of production and at the same time have kept the gun up to the famous high Marlin standard of strength, safety and durability. Notice the clean simplicity of this gun. The workmanship and finish are perfect. The weight is only 7 pounds. The full choke barrels are especially bored for smoke as well as black powder and so chambered that 2¼ inch or 2¾ inch shells may be used. Several improvements in the operating parts make it the easiest, most reliable and best working gun in existence. We are glad to make it possible for every lover of guns and bird shooting to get this high grade repeating shotgun at so low a price.
Have your desire order it for you.

FOOTBALL DIMINISHED ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION DEBT.
Had Haskell Institute Been Played Entire Debt Would Have Been Wiped Out
Under management of W. C. Lansdon, the football season of 1905 has netted the athletic association $297.55. Applying this profit to the unpaid claims from last year consisting of $672.55, the association is now in debt $375.00.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FEBRUARY 10, 1906.
RECEIPTS.

Two "ifs" prevented the old debt from being wiped out this year. The rainy day when Washington University played made the attendance at that game small and the calling off"of the Haskell game which promised to bring a recordbreaking crowd caused a $350 financial loss.
Kansas. to Compete at Athens.
Fay Moulton, the ex-Kansas University 100 yard man is very likely to compete in the Olympic Games at Athens this summer. Moulton lowered the 100 yard Kansas record in '99 to 9 4-5 seconds and then went to Yale where he ran several races with the worlds champion, Arthur Duffey.
Last June, Moulton won the 440,220 and 100 yard runs in the K.C.A.C., St. Louis and Lincoln track meet at Kansas City.
Y. W. C. A. Elects Officers.
The Y. W. C. A. held their annual election last Wednesday. The following officers were elected: Ruby Jackson, president; Ola Bingler, vice president; Susie Shaffer, secretary; Henrietta Gebbardt, treasurer.
Barb Girls' Party.
An exceptionally nice party was given last night at Fraternal Aid Hall. The party was rather small and exclusive, about eighty couples dancing. Twenty-four barb girls took part in the event, the other girls present being chosen as guests from the various sororities.
The girls on the reception line were Miss Ada Bechtel, Miss Maud VanCleave, Miss Katheryn Hosford, Miss Margerite Dixon and Miss Ella Nash. The grand march was very prettily executed. The programmes were given out by Miss Hermina Pollman and Miss Blanch Smith at the south side, and Miss Gertrude Merker and Miss Nellie Isaacson at the north side. The programs were dainty white folders engraved in gold, and made up of the usual twenty-two dances.
The refreshments were perhaps the most elaborate of any given this spring. They were served in two courses. On the menu were dainty sandwiches with chicken salad, pickles and coffee, and Neapolitan ice cream with fancy cakes.
A small fire in a steam laundry next door did not interrupt the dancers but only added a little fun and excitement to the affair. In all it was a very successful and enjoyable party.
Kansas Monday.
An opportunity will be given to the University public on Monday night to again see how Kansas athletes conduct themselves. A basket-ball game has been arranged with the fast K, U. team to be played on our floor, and it is expected that a hearty welcome will be given to the Jayhawkers. This is the first contest in any branch of athletics with Kansas for three years. Daily Nebraskan.
German Plav.
The students of the German department will play "Die Schulreitrain" in the original German next Friday evening in chapel. The play is popular and any one with a fair knowledge of german can appreciate it. The play has been given in the Verein since vacation. The cast will be announced in the next issue of the Kansan.
One of the freshman "barb" girls sent an invitation to the "Barb" girls spring party to a professor, who is married and has three children, with the card of an unmarried member of the faculty in it.

TEAMS SELECTED
SIX LAWYERS ON TEAMS FOR INTERSTATE DEBATE.
Small Number of Debaters Makes Double Trials Necessary---- Strong Baker Team.
Professors Hodder, Becker and Burdick, the judges in the debating trials, met this morning and made the results of the preliminary debates which were held this week. As there were only nineteen men in the preliminaries it was decided to select the nine men for the teams without the formality of a second set of trials.
As the squad has been divided, the Baker team is probably the strongest of the three. The men are: J.W.Blood and Wilburn Parker of the Law School and Chester Ramsey of Snow literary society.
The men who will represent the University in the Iowa debate are: W. J. Luckey, and J. H. Sutton of the Law School, and N. J. Bischoff of X.Y.Z. They will defend the affirmative of the question: "Resolved, that the United States should establish a fiscal protectorate over West Indian, Central or South American Republic, whenever it shall manifest a chronic failure to meet its foreign financial obligations." Granted: that neither these republics nor any foreign nation would object.
The Missouri men are: "Howell and McWilliams of the Law School, and John Gage of X. Y. Z. Kansas has the affirmative of the following question: "Resolved: that Congress should grant power to a commission to fix and enforce railway rates. Granted: that any action of Congress after the question is submitted shall not enter into this debate. Both the Baker and Missouri debates will be held here.
With the issue of February 7th the Daily Nebraskan ceased its publication. At a meeting of the board of regents last spring, it was decided that the college paper would be operated on the elective plan—somewhat similar to the present system in vogue here. In the future the editors and assistants will be elected only when the quality of their writing guarantees sufficient fitness-for editorial work. Whether the name "Nebraskan" will be dropped is not known.
A terrible clatter of bells is frequently heard in Fraser Hall today. The electricians are installing the new set of electric gongs.
The many University people seen going to the river today to skate were divided into pairs, so that they might be "as they should in co-education," as Prof. Hopkins says.
TRACK SCHEDULE COMPLETED
There Will Be Five Meets. Nebraska among Them.
Manager Lansdon has completed the track schedule. Five meets will be held:
Indoor meet, Kansas City March 16.
Interschool meet, McCook April 13.
Oklahoma, Norman, Okla.
Oklahoma, Norman, Okla.
Missouri, Columbia.
Nebraska, McCook field.
The exact date of the last three meets have not yet been decided upon, but they will all be held in May.
Rejoin K. C. A. C. Team.
It is announced today that Albert Hicks and "Pete" Allen, former K. U. athletes have gone back to the Kansas City Athletic Club and will play in the rest of the seasons games. They had quit the Blue Diamond team on account of a little trouble with Coach Delaney. The breach has been patched up and a truce declared, so that Hicks and Allen can accompany the Blue Diamonds on their Eastern trip. Their loss was keenly felt by the Athletics as can be seen by the fact that Baker beat them this week. They will also play in the series of games against the Schnecady, New York team, which are to be played in Convention Hall February 15, 16, 17. Hicks had been spending his vacation on his big farm near Beloit, Kas.
Quill Club Elects.
The Quill Club elected the following officers for the spring semester at the regular meeting this week. Frank Melvin, president; Bernice Jones, vice-president; Rillie Bernhard, secretary and treasurer.
The club has a larger and more active membership this year than for two or three years past and is in a fair way to become a strong factor in the English department of the University. Several lectures and special programs have already been arranged for the Tuesday meetings this spring.
Chancellor's Condition.
Chancellor Strong has no fever now and is getting along very nicely. However it will be some time before he will be able to be up. The Chancellor has been ill since his return from the meeting of the State Board of Education at Topeka the week after Christmas holidays.
Fine Skating on River.
Skating on the Kaw has been ideal for the last few days. More students have been seen going toward the river than to the library. Good skating comes so seldom at K.U. that lessons must give place when it does come.

If Kansas had had no training table this year, the books would should about $900 on the other side of the ledger.
Reports from Baldwin indicate that school work has been suspended and that the student body is compiling a bibliography for use of their debater against K. U.
Dean Templin, who was judge of an inter-society debate at Baker last week, informs us that it was one of the cleverest debates he ever listened to. Our debaters should realize Baker's power and train as they never have before.
The report of the auditing committee of the athletic board shows that Kansas at present has a deficit in her athletic funds of nearly $450. This includes the payment of a debt of $600 left over from last year. So that in reality Manager Lansdon has made several hundred dollars on football. Lansdon has made a good manager, financially and otherwise. He has been given a comparatively free hand in the management of athletics nor has the confidence in his tact and ability been misplaced. He has the good-will of the athletes and he has made the association which covers a multitude of other shortcomings.

Concert at Baptist Church.
Mrs. C. P, Grosvenor of Topeka, Mr. Ed. House of Kansas City, and some of the best musicians in Lawrence will give a concert at the First Baptist church on Friday night Feb. 16.
Mrs. Grosvenor has spent several years in New York studying under the best vocal instructor of New York. Mr. House was formerly of Lawrence but for several years has been studying in Kansas City. Among those in Lawrence to assist in the concert are: Miss Phipps, violinist; Prof. Hubach; Mrs. J. W. O'Bryon, reader; and Miss Stella Robins vocal teacher at Haskell.
New Dynamo for Lighting.
Fruit of all kinds at Vic's.
Owing to the immense load that is carried at present by the dynamos in Fowler shops it was necessary to order a new dynamo. It will have power of 115 kilowatts, the revolving field is 60 cycle, three phase, Bullock pattern. The whole dynamo complete weighs 8000 pounds and when ready for use will have cost $2,000. The new dynamo will be ready for use by next fall.
A New Zealand Football Team.
New Zealand Rugby will be played on California field between a champion New Zealand team and a British Columbia aggregation. This species of football is the same as the "socker" ball and on account of the present agitation against the American football will no doubt become very popular with those who wish to see a milder sport. The New Zealand team is making a tour of the world and has defeated some of the best teams in Europe.

All the classes are divided in small sections for recitations, laboratory and clinical bedside instruction. Students are admitted to advanced standing after passing the requisite examinations. The successful completion of the first year in any college or University recognized by the Regents of the State of New York as maintaining a satisfactory standard is sufficient to satisfy the requirements for admission which have lately been raised.

Professor Bourne Says We Do Not Read Enough.
Professor Bourne of Yale, speaking in chapel Friday about the reading course of a student, said: "The best time to broaden one's ideas is during school life; for that reason I would advise students to do as much reading outside the curriculum as can possibly be done. Those engaged in professional life do not have the time to do broad reading, and as one grows older it becomes harder to assimilate new ideas." He urges students to read biographies, and lives and letters of great men, for by so doing they come into personal contact with the problems and difficulties met by those men, and gain help of priceless value.

University Has Six Representatives.
The University Y. M. C. A. has six representatives at the annual conventional of the associations of the state which is in session at Chanute this week. They are: H. L. Heinzman, E. B. Black, Ray Tripp, M. W. Holben, E. B. Gift, and A. R. Mann. Heinzman went to Chanute Thursday to be present at the opening session of the convention that day and the other delegates went yesterday evening. The convention was held here last year.
Gun Night at Harvard Forgotten.
The mid-year examinations at Harvard passed this year without "gun night." "Gun night" is another of the old Crimson customs that has died a natural death.
In ancient times students at Harvard used to collect all the firearms they could lay their hands on and discharge them from dormitory windows as a sign to all the world that the dreaded mid-year tests had begun. There was considerable talk of reviving the custom this year, but when the time came no man was brave enough to fire a shot.
Girls to Have Track Meet
On March 17, the girls at Chicago will hold their annual gymnasium meet. About thirty girls have entered for the following events: parallel bars, flying rings, traveling rings, horse ladders, high jump, broad jump, rope, and possibly the shot put. This is an innovation that will soon find its way westward.
The Annual editorial board had its picture taken at Squires Saturday afternoon.

Basket Ball Boys Are Starting Out Fine.
The basket ball team started its trip by defeating the Wyandotte Athletic club 40 to 10 on Thursday night, and the Independence, Missouri, club 43 to 16 on Friday evening. The Independence game was expected to be a hard struggle, but turned out to be a snap. In the Wyandotte game there was considerable roughness, Cole of that team making seventeen fouls. Allen was played during the first half as forward and Barlow the last half, in both these games. The Kansas City Y. M.C.A.five will be played tonight. They are expected to put up a good game, but the score will probably be in our side of the balance. The Y.M. C.A.court will be the best court that the team has played on this year, and will give the team good practice for the hard Nebraska game Monday night at Lincoln. The official score for the two games is:

REPEATING SHOT GUN
NEW MODEL N917
Here is the cheapest good gun yet made. By the omission of the take down feature we have been able to greatly reduce the production and at the same time have kept the gun up to the famous Light Marlin standard of strength, safety and durability. Notice the clean simplicity of this gun. The workmanship and finish are perfect. The weight is only 7 pounds. The full choke barrels are especially bored for smokeless as well as black powder and no chambers that 2¼ inch or 2-inch shells may be used. Several improvements in the operating posts make it the easiest, most reliable and best working gun in existence. We are glad to make it possible for every lover of guns and shooters to get the high grade repeating shotgun at so low a price.
Have your dealer order it for you.

VOLUME II.
KANSAS WINS!!
NOW CHAMPIONS OF THE MIS- SOURI VALLEY.
Best of Feeling Prevailed. Kansas Won by Superior Team Work.
Lincoln, Nebraska, February 13. (Special to Kansan.)—In one of the fastest games ever played in Lincoln the Kansas University basket ball team was victorious over the Cornhuskers Monday night to the tune of 37 to 17.
The game was particularly interesting in that it is the first athletic contest between the two universities since the resumption of athletic relations. The best possible feeling prevailed through the whole game and though defeat came hard to our sister university they took it like men.
The game, from the first blow of the referee's whistle to the end, was one of the prettiest exhibitions of team work that one could wish to see. Kansas started the scoring after about five minutes of fast play when Allen made a free throw from the foul line. In a few seconds the Nebraskans had put the ball in the basket for the first field goal. After that it was anybody's game until near the end of the half, when the Jayhawkers forged ahead and the half closed with the score 20 to 11 in favor of them.
In the second half Nebraska started in whirlwind form and succeeded in making three points in a few minutes. Their strength was soon spent, however, and Kansas dropped the ball through the loop so often that it took their breath away. Every man on the team was at his best and not a man played for anything but victory. The game was particularly lacking in spectacular plays, team-work being the one byword. Captain Miller and Johnson outdid themselves at guard, Miller holding Hagensick, the Nebraska star, and the one chiefly responsible for Baker's defeat, to two field goals. "Fog" Allen did star work at forward, making 23 out of the 37 points. Hagensick and Moser did the best work for Nebraska. The lineup:

Allen, f 8 7 3

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FEBRUARY 14, 1906.
LOST ONE.
Underestimated Des Moines Y. M.
C. A. "Subs" Put In.
Des Moines, Iowa, Feb. 14— The Des Moines Y. M. C. A. defeated the K. U. five last night by one point the final score being 26 to 25. The game was very fast and rough. Captain Miller expected an easy game and put in all the substitutes at the start. The Des Moines team started out by scoring eight points before K. U. made a goal. The team seemed over confident and though Allen was put in during the last half, and the score began to get nearly equal, yet when the whistle blew for time, the game was won by a point.
The morning papers gave the score 36 to 25, but the above telegram sent by Harry Davis, a Kansan reporter who acted as referee, gave the official score as 26 to 25. Iowa University at Iowa City is played tonight.
Quill Club.
At the meeting of the Quill club Tuesday was read an original story of child life by Abbe Beckwith which was one of the best things given before the club this year. Herman Pfeifer read a very ingenious defense of the "yellow-backed" novel in literature. For the next meeting a composite story of village life will constitute the program.
President Melvin appointed the following committee chairmen: Membership, Miss Gardner; program, Mr. Douglas; general advisory committee, Miss Leach.
"K" Party a Success.
The men who wear K's gave a dance in Fraternal Aid hall last Saturday night. About fifty couples were present, making dancing especially fine because of the small number. Mrs. Charlton furnished the music and a number of comments were heard that it was about the best that has been heard at any party this year.
They will have to build an extension to Fraternal Aid hall if the sophomores give many more parties. So popular have their entertainments become that they may have to limit the number of seats sold.

Seniors should have their pictures made as soon as possible, so that there will be no delay.

ADOPT TEN-YARD RULE.
American Rule Committee Makes Changes.
The football situation is becoming more complicated. In addition to the sundry changes in the rules by the "big" nine and the drastic measures taken by several other colleges, the American Rules Committee at New York issues from time to time its report on the proposed reforms.
The latest is that the special committee on the ten-yard rule have passed the measure and the distance must be made in three downs. It is probable that the committee's recommendation will be adopted. The following other points were agreed upon:
That every player on the kicking side shall be on-side when the kicked ball touches the ground.
One forward pass to be allowed on every play, providing the ball does not touch the ground before being touched by a player of either side.
Some changes in the rules agreed upon at the last conference were made. To prevent piling up it was agreed that the ball shall be considered dead when any portion of the person of the runner with the ball except his hands or feet touches the ground when in the grasp of an opponent.
Either captain may ask that time be taken off three times during each half without a penalty. If thereafter either captain requests that time be called, his side shall be penalized by a loss of two yards for each request, unless the injured player be removed from the game.
Thought it Was a Fire.
Tuesday, in the class in Sociology Abijah Fairchild had fallen asleep and was sweetly dreaming when the new gongs just installed in Fraser Hall began to ring. The bell brought to Abijah's mind visions of smoke filled hallways and leaping flames and he awoke prepared to make an exit by the nearest window when stopped by the professor. "I thought sure there was a fire," said 'Bijah by way of explanation.
The Greek Symposium met last evening at the home of Professor Sterling. The program of the evening consisted of a talk by Mr. Hendrix on "Alphabetical Forms" and a talk by Professor Wilcox on "The Disk Thrower of Myron." Mr. Wilcox also made some remarks about the splendid Greek bronze statue recently found and now on exhibition in the Metropolitan museum, New York. After the program a social evening was spent.
ST. PIERRE'S DESTRUCTION.
Prof. Kelsey of Michigan Gave Illustrated Lecture.
Professor Kelsey, head of the department of Latin in the University of Michigan and secretary of the Archaeological Institute of America, gave an illustrated lecture in University Hall Saturday evening. The lecture dealt with a comparison of the eruption of Mount Pelee in 1902 and the consequent destruction of St. Pierre, with the destruction of Vesuvius in 79 which buried Pompeii and Herculaneum. He showed that the destruction of Herculaneum was by means of a great river of mud similar to that which destroyed a sugar refinery at St. Pierre just before the great eruption. The great eruption which destroyed St. Pierre was of the nature of a sudden explosion of superheated steam filled with fine particles of volcanic dust. The eruption of Vesuvius by which Pompeii was destroyed was of the nature of a shower of volcanic sand. He used many illustrations to make this clear. The attendance was quite large, the main floor of the chapel being almost entirely filled, and the lecture was received with much favor.
Article for Cyclopedia of Law.
Mr. W. E. Higgins of the law school has just completed an article on incest for the American Law Book Company to be used in its Cyclopedia of law known as "Cyc," which is now being published. Mr. Higgins has used all his spare time for the last six months in the preparation of this article. He has carefully read and digested every decision, American and English, to be found upon the subject. This article will be recognized by the profession as authority and the careful lawyer will not hesitate to cite it and the decision mentioned to sustain the principles laid down without the trouble of verification.
The Pipe of Peace.
A rally was held in chapel at Nebraska Monday morning. Manager Lansdon made a speech in which he said "All of Kansas and her University are glad we are to resume. We ought never to have broken off relations. It was a mistake and we are very glad to get back where we used to be." Dean Pound responded for Nebraska and a veritable love feast seems to have followed.
A knife was found in the locker room of the men's gym the other day, which was a souvenir of an Illinois Brewing company. It had a very fine cork screw attached to it. Wonder what Baker student owed it.-Baker Orange.

The summary dismissal of two students last week gave notice that retribution is swift and certain at K. U. to the student or students that openly violate the rules of propriety.
The Crown Prince of Austria visited the University last week but received scant attention from our Kansas heiresses. He was not of a preposessing appearance, besides the Gould-Boni de Castellane affair is yet in mind.
Ralph Tennal says the students of journalism at the University of Kansas should cut their course down to three or four dances and go into a print shop. Bet if Ralph's arm once encircled the waist of a K. U. co-ed in a dreamy waltz he would join the permanent student body!
The freshmen are accusing the sophomores of being afraid to debate. The 09'ers say they are ready and willing to meet on the forum any representatives of the '08 class but that the latter are dilatory, procrastinate and refuse to be brought to an issue. That is a serious charge and if the escutcheon of '08 would remain unspotted must needs be refuted at once.
THE LONDON ENGLAND MUSEUM
IN CONCERT WORK.
Miss Minnie L. Owens left on Tuesday of last week on a tour of Western Kansas and Nebraska with the Bissings Concert Company of Topeka. She will take part in a concert every evening while gone and will not return until March 3. Miss Owens was graduated last year from the Fine Arts School and gave a recital last spring that drew one of the largest crowds that ever attended such an entertainment on the hill.
There is nothing which disgusts the public so much and makes them wary of free lectures in the future as to be told that a lecture will be a very popular and entertaining one and then have to listen to a "dry as dust" discourse two hours in length on a subject that a special student in that field would hardly understand.

Training School for Nurses.
At the last meeting of the Board of Regents of the University, it was decided to establish a training school for nurses at the new hospital in Kansas City. A principal was elected; and the general rules for the acceptance of nurses were promulgated. In general, no candidate will be received under twenty-one years of age, or, who has not a three years high school education. The term of probation will be three months, the entire term of instruction being three years. After the first year, nurses will be furnished their uniforms; no other compensation will be given. At present, only a small number will be admitted.
F. A. Hartman of last year's class and Miss Anna Botsford, who was in the University last year, were married in Kansas City, Feb. 10.

THE "SUB-EDITOR"
C. M. Harger Tells of Duties of Financial Editor, Sporting Editor.
Charles M. Harger addressed the newspaper classes at 11:15 Monday upon the subject of "Sub-Editor's Work." "The sporting editor," said Mr. Harger, "may publish the report of the New York base-ball game and even though it be placed in some remote and scarcely noticeable part of the paper the enthusiastic reader will find it and stand upon his head but what he read it."
In speaking of the humorous columns of some of the noted papers of the country, Mr. Harger emphasised the fact that ability in that line was born in the person; that one should never cultivate the habit of being funny for nothing is so fear-
fully solemn as fun that is not fun.
"Accuracy is fundamental for for the success of a paper. The Kansas City Star made its greatest reputation in its accurate market reports several years ago when Western Kansas and the southwest was so interested in such reports.
After all, there are two kinds of knowledge for a reporter. The first is to actually have the knowledge and the second is to know where to get it."

Professor Edward G. Bourne, Professor of History in Yale College, lectured Friday in University Hall on "The Romance of the South-west." Professor Bourne was introduced by Professor Abbott who expressed regret that Chancellor Strong's illness prevented him from being present to introduce to the audience his college class-mate. In introducing his subject Professor Bourne remarked that "History without romance has little interest for the trained mind" and supported this view with references to the Father of History, Herodotus, and to the work of Walter Scott as an historical novelist. The lecture dealt with the early explorations and settlements of the southwest. It was not of a popular character and was entirely too technical in its nature to meet with hearty support from an audience made up of people other than students of history. Professor Bourne has been Professor of History at Yale since 1895 and before that time occupied the position of lecturer on political science in the same institution. He is the author of a book entitled "The History of the Surplus Revenue of 1837" and of numerous papers on historical subjects. He is also Co-editor of the Yale-Review.

GERMAN PLAY
The German department will present the play "Die Schulreiterin," on the chapel stage next Friday evening. The play is a one act comedy by Emil Pohl and has been presented in parts in meetings of the Verein earlier in the year. The cast is:
German Department, In Comedy Friday Night. Synopsis of the Play.
Baroness Niltoch, Miss Anna Clinger; Ceasar, Henry Rohman; Engelhard, Frank Klingberg; Otto, the Servant, Kenneth Campbell; Lockey, Mr. Chesbro.
Admission is free.
For the benefit of those who may attend the following synopsis of the plot is given:
Caesar, baron of Wedding, is engaged to a rich young lady, Lucie, baroness of Nietoch, whose wealth is for him the sole attraction. He has become infatuated with a circus body in the City and gets her to agree to visit him at his country castle which is the scene of the play. In order to avoid scandal it has been prearranged that her carriage should tip over in a ditch and he is to rescue her and take her into his castle. On the evening her carriage will come, Engelhard, who has been hunting comes to the castle to get something to eat. While trying to get rid of his guest Caesar receives a note from his mother calling him at once to his ancestral home. Finally he tells his friend his secret and persuades him to be substitute and entertain the circus lady. Soon after
he is gone a crash is heard and a lady is ushered into the room. The situation for Engelhard is embarrassing but he made the best of it. He notices that the lady seemed to be puzzled by the situation but attributed it to disappointment over Ceasar's absence. He tells her that Ceasar loves her and is only going to marry the baroness for her money. As the conversation proceeds she becomes more and more interested in him and he in her. In the midst of their delightful tete-a-tete Ceasar rushes in and makes the discovery that this is not the circus lady at all but baroness Niltoch. But the baroness has had her eyes opened as to Ceasar's attitude to her, and in triumph leads Engelhard captive off the stage.

THE KANSAN.
VOLUME II.
SOME HISTORY
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FEBRUARY 17, 1906.
YOST RAN IN A RINGER AT KANSAS.
Dr. Naismith Discovered Him---- Introduced the Man to Vost
Yost.
The Kansan has been in possession for some time of some facts about Fielding H. Yost and his methods while at Kansas but has refrained from publishing them. A few days ago some of them were in a Kansas City paper so there is no reason for withholding the remainder.
In the fall of '99 after a few weeks of preliminary football practice it was found that Kansas was sadly in need of a tackle. One evening while down on McCook Dr. James Nainsmith noticed a heavy six footer, standing on the sideline much interested in the game. He looked like a student, so the Doctor went up and inquired if he had ever played any football and if he was enrolled in the school. The stranger replied that he had never played any but that he was in the law school and would like to learn the game. Naismith introduced him to Vost and the next afternoon he was in a football suit.
Well, Krebs, that was what the stranger gave his name as, was mighty awkward at first but he learned the game amazingly fast. He developed into one of the best tacklers ever seen on McCook and on Thanksgiving day played rings around Washer the great Missouri tackle. On Thanksgiving night Krebs got a letter from his mother that she was very sick. He left on the next train and was never seen or heard of again.
Some months after this some of the professors on the athletic board got suspicious about the whole affair and wrote to Pawnee Rock, where Krebs registered from. The reply came back that no such person as the Krebs mentioned had ever lived or been there.
It afterwards developed that Yost had told some of the men down town that Kansas would have to have a tackle, and that if they would put up the money one would be forthcoming.
All these facts have long been known to those intimately connected with athletics, but have never been given out. The best part of the affair is, that Dr. Naismith discovered the great tackle and introduced him to Yost.
Rice Gunn and Howard Farnsworth will leave for their homes in Fort Scott and Atchison next Wednesday to visit until Monday.
Initiation is being held at the Alpha Tau house tonight for Ben Forbes, of Wauthena, Kan.
"THE SOPHOMORE."
'08 Will Entertain the Seniors in April.
The ever original class of nineteen eight will this year inaugurate a new annual event to be known as "The Sophomore." The affair will be a formal dance given by the Sophomore class to entertain the members of the Senior Class and will be strictly limited to the members of the two classes with the exception that Senior boys may take Freshman or Junior girls under the same condition as they may take Freshmen or Sophomore girls to the Junior Promenade.
The committee wishes and advises that all Senior and Sophomore boys—especially the former—would make engagements for "The Sophomore" within the next three or four weeks.
The date set for "The Sophomore" this year is Friday, April 27th and it will be held in the Fraternal Aid Hall. Invitations to the Seniors will be sent out early in April.
Any further information can be obtained from any member of the following committee: Rex Singleton, Mac Drennan, Herbert Luther, Clare Brigham, Harold Bozell, Esther Rouch, Genevieve Clark, Rebecca Moddy, Frances Houlton, and Hermena Pollman.
The Sig Alph Party.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon entertained last Wednesday night with their annual spring party in Fraternal Aid hall. The attendance was smaller than at the former parties and was characterized by the large number of out of town guests. About seventy-five couples were present.
Harry Kelley's orchestra of six men from Kansas City furnished the music. The programs, white and decorated with embossed paper and the S.A.E. coat of arms in gold, contained twenty-two dances.
Professor Pelo and wife led the grand march and Clyde Baldwin, Helen Havens, Earl Gafford, Alice Rankin, Pryor Combs, and Bess Stevens stood in the receiving line.
Elaborate refreshments, consisting of chicken paddies, sandwiches, coffee, and ice cream on slices of pineapple were served during the intermission.
Among the out of town guests were: Martha Work, Marguerite McWilliams, Alice Alscon, Murrell Crandell, Lucie Woods, Mrs. Woods, Mrs. Gage, Mrs. Devascher, of Kansas City; Nelson Jenks, Mrs. Richardson, St. Joe; Joseph Gay, Kansas City; Helen Lindsay, Topeka; Mrs. Smith, Kingsley, Kansas; Bert Satterlee, Kansas City, Missouri.
PHI BETA KAPPA ELECTS.
Seventeen Seniors Honored. Four Sorority Women in List.
The council of the honorary fraternity of Phi Beta Kappa elected to membership the following members of the senior class of the college at its meetings Tuesday and Wednesday: Helen Alder, Lawrence; Frank Barlow, Wellington; John Bender, Holliday; Mary Bennett, Pittsburg; Hedwig Berger, Kansas City; Ellen Boyle, Mabel Kent, Grace McKnight, U. G. Mitchell, Lawrence; Ella Nash, Lyons; Maude Olander, Kansas City; Georgia E. Pilcher, Lawrence; Arthur D. Pitcher, Havensville; Mary G. Smith, Hutchinson; Benjamin Stelter, Delphos; Maude Van Cleve, Kansas City; Margarethe von Unwerthe, Kansas City.
The new system of election to the society went into operation this year. By this method only faculty members of the society compose the electoral council. The members selected were chosen from the third of the class whose records showed the highest grades. In this list of eligible students there were thirty-nine members of the class. From these, seventeen were elected to the fraternity, the choice depending upon considerations altogether aside from the matter of grades. According to a statement by a faculty member of the fraternity there were nine straight one standings out of the class and all of them were elected.
According to an amendment to the constitution of the society made this year, not more than one-fifth of any class may be elected. It will thus be possible to elect six more members of the class at the June election. Previous to this time the number which could be elected has been one-fourth, and it is probable from the fact that the proportion has been reduced that the full quota eligible under the constitution will be elected.
Juniors Win over Seniors.
The juniors defeated the senior basket ball team in the second game of the class tournament, last night, by the score of 23 to 24. The seniors started out by scoring 17 to 6 in the first half. Winnagle was allowed to play with the seniors during the first half, but was contested the second half and sent to the sidelines. The juniors took a brace during the last half, and by making ten free throws on fouls, won the game. Twenty-four fouls were called on the seniors. Bliss did nearly all the scoring for the seniors and L. E. Russell for the juniors. Moore threw ten free throws for the juniors. There were 100 spectators present. The freshmen will play the seniors Monday evening at 4:30. The sophomores won the first game over the freshmen, 46 to 6.
NUMBER 40
LOSE TWO GAMES.
Win from Armour Institute. Play Chicago Tonight.
Chicago, Ill., February 17, Special.—Evanston Y. M. C. A. defeated the Kansas University basket ball team last night by a score of 29 to 13. The score does not tell of the hard, steady work of the Kansas team. The Evanston team was kept away from the ball for minutes together, while the Kansas team tried time and time again to make a goal without success. The Y. M. C. A. team had no trouble in making goals, missing only a few times, while Captain Miller was the only K. U. player who seemed able to locate the basket.
Yale was defeated twice by the Evanston team during the holidays, and the Kansas team made fully as good showing as the eastern team did. The Central Y. M. C. A. team of Chicago will be played tonight.
Wednesday, the team was defeated by the Iowa University team, 28 to 20, but the five redeemed themselves by defeating the strong Armour Institute team of Chicago, 34 to 25, in a fast, rough game.
German Play a Success.
The German play given last evening was witnessed by a good sized and appreciative audience of students and town people. The frequent and spontaneous outbursts of laughter were proof that the players did their parts well. They spoke the German well and in many places their acting was excellent. The stage settings and decorations were a noticeable feature of the entertainment and the costumes were strikingly appropriate. Miss Clinger as the baroness, being the only lady in the caste, was naturally the center of interest and received many congratulations on her part. Mr. Klingberg, in his hunter's costume and as proxy lover, also came in for his share of applause. Mr. Kohman, as twitted lover, tore his hair in true dramatic style. Mr. Campbell and Mr. Chesbro as servant and lackey contributed indispensable parts to the play.
Sophomore Party.
The Class of '08 gave the third party of their series in Fraternal Aid Hall last night. The attendance was larger than any class party heretofore given over 115 couple being present.
The programmes were neat little folders with '08 embossed in gold upon them. "Shanty" Newhouse with six assistants furnished the music.
Margaret Hammond '05 of Kansas City attended the Sophomore party last night.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1906
If our boys on the basket ball trip have lost two games they have managed to capture the big games, Nebraska and Armour Institute.
The Spanish department has moved into the Kansan office and at present it is hard to determine which will be affected the more, newspaper English by Spanish, or Spanish by newspaper English.
If some of the George Ades and Peter Dunnes that work on the notices on the general bulletin board in Fraser Hall could be persuaded to contribute to the Kansan, we would have a funny column that would rival Judge's.
The students of the German department deserve the patronage of the school in a better manner than was given them last night. The play that was presented was first-class and reflected no little credit on the students taking part.
A senior who was disturbed by some freshmen talking and giggling in the library the other day broke out in the following: "This University is going to the dogs. When I was a freshman i had to take languages, mathematics and zoology, and spend ten hours a day "grinding" in my room. Now these freshmen take four or five lecture courses, and come up here to the library and spend most of their time watching the cases and making comments."
Since the sophomores have decided to give the seniors an elaborate entertainment some time in April, why can't we follow the lead of some eastern institutions and have a week of social festivity, and concentrate all our social functions in that one week? Let the freshmen come forward with their mite and all will be complete, as the juniors have already planned their part toward the general gayety. The lower classmen should remember that as they
give, so it will be given to them when they are seniors.
The class of '08 has originated some novel ideas in its day. People who know, say that the May day funeral last year was the best class prank ever carried out on Oread while the sophomore idea of giving an entertainment to the seniors is certainly a new one in the Kansas University social world.
Last night I had a little hand,
So dainty and so neat,
Methought my heart would
burst with joy
So wildly did it beat;
No other hand unto my soul
Could greater solace bring
Than that I held last night,
which was
Four aces and a king.
Polen Orange
Four aces and a king.
—Baker Orange.

He Saved the Dog.
E. E. Brown, bookkeeper in the treasurer's office, had an exciting experience on the ice last Saturday which came near ending the career of his spotted dog. The dog, which is of an inquisitive turn of mind, got into running water near the bank and Brown skated over to the edge of the ice to help his dumb friend out of his difficulty. The ice broke and both Brown and the dog were floundering in the icy water. Other skaters ran to their assistance, and reached them just as Brown was about to go under. They all floundered around until the weight of their skates dragged their feet down, so that they could swim no longer, and it developed that the water was about knee deep. The dog did not suffer any permanent injury.

SCORES LANSDON.
Michigan Daily Charges Him with Seeking Notoriety.
Evidently burning with the desire to acquire some notoriety in connection with the present football agitation, one Lansdon, mentioned in newspaper dispatches as "Prof. W. C. Lansdon, a member of the Kansas faculty," has broken into print charging Coach Yost with having used unfair and dishonest methods while coaching at Kansas University. A peculiar feature is, that Rheinhart, who as referee of the Michigan-Chicago game presented the western championship to the maroons, is mentioned as the man who was hired by Yost. The attention of Coach Yost, who is at present at his home in West Virginia, has been called to the article and a reply is expected from him.—Michigan Daily.
COLLEGE TRAINS REPORTERS.
City Editor of Inter Ocean Talks to Chicago Men.
"Billy" Moore, city editor of the Inter Ocean, spoke to the Philosophy College (men) this morning in division meeting on journalism. He confined most of his remarks to work on big dailies. He described the methods of gathering news and showed how it is essential that reporters should have a good liberal college education. He said: "The newspaper men are the professors in the school of the common people. Therefore it is necessary for them to be well educated themselves."—Daily Maroon.

A letter came to Chancellor Strong one day this week from a distant part of the state asking if he would be kind enough to assay some ore for "the under signed." The Chancellor appreciated the compliment to his varied abilities, but decided the communication belonged more properly to the mining engineering department, and so passed it along.

Marlin
REPEATING SHOT GUN
NEW MODEL NO17
Here is the cheapest good gun yet made. By the omission of the take down feature we have been able to greatly reduce the cost of production and at the same time have kept the gun up to the famous Lash Marlin standard of strength, safety and durability. Notice the clean simplicity of this gun. The workmanship and finish are perfect. The weight is only 7 pounds. The full choke barrels are especially bored for smokeless as well as black powder and so chambered that 2¼ inch or 2½ inches may be used. Several improvements in the operating parts make it the easiest, most reliable and best working gun in existence. We are glad to make it possible for every lover of guns and bird shooting to get this high grade repeating shotgun at so low a price.
Have your dealer order it for you.

T. A. McNeal Says Public School System Is Wrong.
Hon. T. A.McNeal of the Topeaka Mail and Breeze who lectured to the newspaper class yesterday, declared that the public school system is all wrong.
"What we should have and must have is the union school system. A school in each township with regular carriers to take the children to school is what we need. It would cost money and a great deal of it. But the best is always cheapest. If one school in each township could be equipped with proper conveniences, it would not require a truant officer to drive the urchins to school."
"This University is the capstone of our educational system, and a very good one it is," said Mr. McNeal. "But as much cannot be said for the foundation for it. Our public school system needs improvement and needs it badly. Did you ever attend one of our typical district schools? They are without exception located in the most desolate part of the district, surrounded by wild grass and buck brush, hedged in by a straggling fence of barbed wire. It is no wonder the poor urchins have to be compelled to submit to such uninspiring surroundings.

HOME TONIGHT
BASKET BALL BOYS EXPECTED FROM 10 DAYS TRIP.
Miller Out of Game---Sprained His Ankle at Chicago---Team Handicapped.
The basket ball team arrived home today after a ten days' trip through Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa, and Illinois. While the team lost several games toward the latter part of the week, they can be consoled in the fact that Nebraska went down to defeat at their hands. Although Nebraska has a champion team she was no match for the Jayhawker. During the last games in Chicago the team was handicapped by the loss of Captain Miller. He sprained his ankle in the Central game and was missed badly at guard. The long trip began to tell on the boys and their work wss not up to its usual standard toward the last.
LANSDON MISTAKEN.
Rheinhardt Denies Playing on Kansas Team.
Manager Lansdon seems to have started "something" when he told the Yost story at Nebraska. The Michigan Daily tears its hair and calls Mr. Lansdon a few fancy names every day. We suppose the manager did blame it on the wrong man for Mr. Rheinhardt comes out with a very plausible alibi. He has witnesses to prove that he never was in Kansas or Nebraska and at the time he was accused of playing at Kansas was working for an engineering firm in New Jersey.
Prominent Medical Visitor.
Dr. Waite, of the Western Reserve Medical School of Cincinnati, visited the Medical School here yesterday gathering information for a paper to be read before the American Association of Medical Colleges on "The Relation of the College to the Medical School." The Western Reserve Medical School is one of the six or seven of the best medical schools in the United States. Dr. Waite is associated in his work with Professor Blackman, who formerly was a member of the University faculty here.

Phi Psi Party.
One of the most enjoyable parties of the season was given Monday night in F. A. A. hall by the Phi Kappa Psis. The party was in celebration of the thirtieth anniversary of the installation of this chapter and the fifty-fourth anniversary of the fraternity. It was especially well attended by alumni of this chapter. The grand march was led by Professor and Mrs. Hodder. The programs, folders with the Greek letters phi, kappa, psi, and 1906 embossed in gold on the front cover, were given out by Miss Josephine Gay and Mr. Bernard L. Sheridan, and by Miss Mary Johnstone and Mr. Eugene L. Carter. A new system of intermission was introduced. The new arrangement made three intermissions, each the length of two dances and one-third of the guests being entertained at lunch at a time. The luncheon consisted of chicken salad, ham and nut sandwiches, pickles, coffee, cakes, and ice cream in lavender and pink, the fraternity's colors.
The inimitable Imperial Trio of Kansas City furnished the amusement between dances. "Shanty" Newhouse's orchestra of eight pieces furnished the music for the dancing.
Among the guests from out of town were Margaret Hammond, Alice Duncan, Josephine Gay, Ethel Walker, Lee Fox, Marvin Creager, Joe Dyer, Will Dyer and Wesley Loomis, Kansas City; Sydney Linscott, Holton, Kansas; and Eddie Edson, Chicago.
Will Have Holiday.
The students of the University of Kansas will be given a holiday tomorrow on the birthday of the father of our country. The matter of a holiday was brought up yesterday before the University council and the vote stood 9 to 9. Professor Carruth cast the deciding vote and gave the students a holiday. The report that the University council had decided to have no holiday and that Chancellor Strong had 'phoned up that a holiday should be given is entirely unfounded. Dr. Strong is not yet able to pay any attention to University business.
Alexander R. Young who graduated from the civil engineering department last year spent Sunday with University friends. He has been in the employ of the Santa Fe since early last summer, and now has his headquarters at Topeka.
Jerry Driscoll is busy now training a relay team to compete in Convention Hall at Kansas City, March 2, for the tri-state championship of Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. The team will be picked from the following list: Meyers, Commons, Wallace, Young, Finch, McCoy, and Driscoll.
QUESTION SUBMITTED.
Freshmen and Sophomores to Debate Missouri Question.
The debate committee of the sophomore class submitted the inter-class debate question to the freshmen Monday. It is: "Resolved, that Congress should grant to a bureau the power to fix and enforce freight rates; provided, that no legislation enacted after January 1, 1906, shall be discussed." The freshmen have choice of sides.
Each class chooses its representatives in any way it sees fit, and they will represent their classes in the debate, which will be on or about April 30. The judges will be selected by the joint debating board of the two classes from a list of twelve names to be selected by the Chancellor.
It is the plan of the classes to use the proceeds of the debate in the purchase of a banner to go to the winners. A banquet will be given to the debaters and other members of the two classes after the contest.
Vesper Service.
The next Vesper service will be held next Sunday afternoon, February 25, at 4 o'clock, in the University chapel. An unusually fine musical program will be given. The anthem, "I Will Mention Thy Lovingkindness," by Sullivan is one of the grandest in the whole range of religious music. Another anthem, "The Glory of God in Nature," by Beethoven is one of the most beautiful of sacred songs. Those who have not associated Beethoven with song music should hear this. In addition to the usual chants and responses there will be an organ prelude from Mailly and a postlude for violin and organ from Händel. Dean Skilton will preside at the organ and Miss Phipps will play the violin. Professor Carruth will give a brief address on the idea of God. This may be the last opportunity to hear Professor Carruth in public before he goes abroad.
It is very important for the success of the Vesper service that as many as possible join in the singing of the chants and responses as well as the hymns. Professor Hubach therefore invites the students to come to the rehearsal in the chapel Thursday evening at 8 o'clock, when they will have an opportunity to go over the chants with the chorus.
John Dadisman, traveling secretary of the Y. M. C. A. of the state spent Saturday and Sunday at the University Y. M. C.A. house.
Wallace F. Hovey of the Kansan staff went to his home in Hiawatha, Monday. He will return in a few days.
A STORY IN EVERYTHING.
C. L. Edson Tells How He Got the News.
C. L. Edson, '04, of the University, now editor of the funny stories known as "Tidings of the Times" in the last column of the editorial page of the Kansas City Times spoke to the newspaper class at 11:15 Tuesday.
"There is a news story in everything," said Mr. Edson, "if the eye of the reporter can but see it." From this assumption, the speaker gave several examples of where the discerning eye could gather news that the ordinary reporter would fail to see. The recent "Coal Dealers Picnic" in the Kansas City Star was entirely imaginary but news that met the demands of the public. He told of a reporter going to the recruiting station where he was told there was "nothing doing." Upon close questioning he found that an old man, the first man to enter Santiago, had just reenlisted into the service. This was news of the best quality.
Mr. Edson showed how one could often see the humurous as well as the serious side of a story and that that side of a story appeal to the public often equally to accurate story.
"Out of your own mind you get the story and the object only suggests," he said, "and if you obtain something that is of interest to the public it must come from your own thoughts."
Base Ball Practice Next Week.
The warm days are bringing out the base ball men, and although no regular practice has been held on McCook yet the spring tryout will commence next week if the weather continues good.
This year's team will have the advantage of having more experienced material than usual. Besides Johnson, Hoffman, Young, Bailey, Wilson, and Brookens of last year's team, several new men will no doubt make good. With the graduation of Sexton, Woodford and Gillette, the outfield must be filled with new men.
Several games in Texas are contemplated during the spring vacation and this will be one of the best trips ever taken by a K. U. team.
The workshop in the Paleontology museum has a motor installed now and is in good shape for work. The large fossil buffalo will be the first and one of the most difficult subjects to be mounted. This fossil stands about a third higher than the modern living buffalo.

It would have been gross disrespect to the father of his country not to have fittingly observed his birthday by abstinence from all school work.

The society people are having a strenuous time of it this week. Three fraternity parties are scheduled. It may not be known to most people that the formal annual fraternity party such as is given at Kansas University is a custom in no other college in this country.
Some people seem to be very much disappointed at the result of the Phi Beta Kappa election and are not a bit backward at giving voice to their disappointment. They should keep in good cheer because there are six people to be elected yet, and besides you know this year other things than grades were considered.
The tendency to make light of the significance of some of
the events of our national childhood, was exemplified in the position of the University council as to observing Washington's birthday. Granted that other of our presidents have been equally great characters, Washington personifies the spirit which fostered the nation. For that reason too much cannot be made of the representative man—the schools of the country should make the most of the tradition.
Fruit of all kinds at Vic's.
Baker Spy At Washburn.
At the preliminary to the Baker debate last Friday night occurred one of the most unfortunate affairs that could have happened. Mr. W. D. Green, of Baker, appeared at the debate and had to be requested to leave. He is, at present, president of the Baker debating council and was on the Baker preliminary on the same subject. Mr. Green made some very bad statements during the occurrence of the incident but we feel that it is merely just to Baker that these statements should not be published. Professor Towne twice asked him to go away and Professor Plass once remonstrated with him about his actions. President Plass told him that he could not afford to open himself to the charge of attempting to steal Washburn's argument whether or not it was his real intention. And further the presi-told him that he knew that President Murlin, of Baker, would not for an instant countenance such an action on the part of a Baker student if he was cognizant of the fact.—Washburn Review.
Benjamin F. Stelter, who was elected Phi Beta Kappa last week, left Sunday for Leavenworth to accept a position as head of the English department in the city high school. He has been doing some work towards his master's degree this year.

Would Make Them Mad.
The fainting of two girls in Professor Haworth's Geology Class Monday morning broke the monotony of life for a few minutes. Teacher and pupils were kept busy, and as the second one was carried out the jocund professor said: "Make the rest mad. I know of nothing better to keep people from fainting than to make 'em mad. Make 'em mad some way, I don't care how."

FRENCH PLAY.
First Rehearsal Yesterday. The Cast of Characters.
The first rehearsal of the French play was held last week afternoon and the leading characters went through their parts very readily. The play this year is to be Paillerons "Le Monde Oui L'on S'ennui," and is one of the most delightful comedies ever written. It is an exposition of affectedly literary society of Paris, and is full of laughable situations. An English translation of the play was given by the senior class in 1896 and made a decided "hit." The play will be given as soon as possible after Lent.
The cast of characters is:
Bellac, fashionable philosopher, H. H. Smith.

The course covering four years begins during the last week in September and continues until June. A preliminary training in natural science is of great advantage. All the classes are divided in small sections for recitations, laboratory and clinical bedside instruction. Students are admitted to advanced standing after passing the requisite examinations. The successful completion of the first year in any college or University recognized by the Regents of the State of New York as maintaining a satisfactory standard is sufficient to satisfy the requirements for admission which have lately been raised. The annual announcement giving full particulars will be mailed on application.

T. A. McNeal Says It's Up To The Funmaker.
T. A. McNeal, state printer and editor of the Mail and Breeze, talked to the newspaper classes last Friday on "The Cheery Side of Journalism." Mr. McNeal has been in the newspaper business for thirty-five years, and his experiences were many and interesting. He said in part:
"The cheerful side of journalism pertains not to the reporter or the editor, but to the patrons of the paper. People demand fun, and it is up to the jokesmith to grind out a column or so of 'smiles'; if he fails the people are disappointed, but if he succeeds, his fortune is made. Bill Nye was the master of wit, but when he contracted to furnish a New York paper a column of jokes every day, it was too much; he died as a result."
Mr. McNeal told some very amusing stories of wind and drought out here in Kansas before the white men became so numerous. The lecture was well attended and the newspaper students extend to Mr. McNeal a standing invitation to address them whenever he visits the University.

A New Greek Letter Society.
A new Greek letter society known as the Kappa Beta Phi has been established on the hill. It has for its object the promotion of the interests of the leisure class of students. There are four charter members, and several eligible students are being "rushed" this week. A list of thirty-nine members of the graduating class who, as their grades show, have not allowed the University course of studies to interfere with their getting a liberal education will be made, and from this list, seventeen, or one-fifth of the class, will be elected to membership in the new society. The society color is green, and the symbol a key such a one as may be found on a can of deviled ham. Considering the wealth of material to select from, the new organization should soon be in a flourishing condition
The society ought to take high rank in the University because of the number of prominent people among the charter members. One of the most prominent members of the Phi Beta Kappa is secretary of the organization.
Squires has seven photographers working and can get your senior picture out on time.
Endow a University Scholarship.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
VOLUME II.
ON“DEMOCRACY”
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FEBRUARY 24, 1906.
DENNIS J. SHEEDY SPOKE BEFORE DEMOCRATIC CLUB.
Committee Decides to Have a K. U. Man on the Program Every Year.
Dennis J. Sheedy of the law school spoke before the Democratic club at Topeka Thursday night on "Young Democracy." Sheedy was one of the youngest men on the program and made one of the best speeches. He made such a good speech, in fact, that the Democratic committee has decided that hereafter all their young orators shall come from K. U.
He spoke in part as follows:
"No vacation was more enjoyed than we do this occasion. We feel that we are getting a taste, a peep, of real life. And I cannot conceive of anything more American than a Democratic banquet. It is a banquet when Democrats banquet. For even here, in the great state of Kansas, some may turn down their glasses,-be that as it may-among Democrats he is none the less a man.
NUMBER 42
BENNETT S. BERKELY
DENNIS J. SHEEDY.
"I have said it is refreshing to be here, and it is more. It is encouraging and enspiring to a young man, allying himself with a party representing less than thirty per cent of the voters of his state, to see so many men that share the same political faith. Men who are undaunted by defeat. Men who prefer principle to victory.
"There are many complex questions before the American people. Questions that will tax the intelligence and patriotism of the wisest and best legislators. But our greatest need is not more remedial laws. Good laws do no good when put in the hands of weak and unscrupulous men to enforce them. What we need is men of courage. As I read and see history, past and present, the Democratic party affords us the best examples. At the conception of our government when the
Declaration of Independence asserted that all men are equal, hurled defiance at an English king and proclaimed doctrines that made every European throne tremble, the man who dared to think and write so boldly was the father of Democracy, Thomas Jefferson.
"Young Democracy wishes to gain from you who have grown old in the service of the party, the ways of the party man. Not the ways that are boodle, trickery or bribery, but ways of truth, virtue and honesty. That we may grow. That every person regardless of sex, color or age may enjoy the fruits of a growing civilization. That the greatest republic will not perish from the earth. This is the mission of Democracy, young or old, North or South, East or West."
Sophomores Win at Basket Ball.
The strong sophomore team defeated the junior team last night in the gymnasium by a score of 23 to 19. It was by far the fastest game of the tournament and both teams did good work. The juniors have not had as much practice as the second year men and this weakness was shown in the last few minutes when they allowed their opponents to make two field goals which practically won the game.
Loyd Russell did most of the work for the juniors although all showed up well. Angney and Justice did the best playing for the Sophomores. The standing of the teams is as follows:
Won Lost
Sophomores 2 0
Juniors 1 1
Seniors 1 1
Freshmen 0 2
Coming of "Parsifal."
The most important event of the theatrical season here will be the presentation Saturday, March 3rd, at the Bowersock opera house of "Parsifal" (in English.) The coming of this famous Wagner sacred mystic festival play cannot fail to fill the true lover of the drama with interest and expectancy. That "Parsifal" has scored a most brilliant artistic success is undeniable. The best critics of America have lauded it with the highest praise, and the public has patronized it to the utmost capacity of every theatre in which it has been played.
Commencement Speakers Chosen.
The Chancellor's secretary announced today the commencement speakers for the exercises in June. Henry Churchill King President of Oberlin College Ohio will deliver the Bacclauroate sermon and Captain Henry King, editor of the Globe Democrat will deliver the commencement address proper.
FOR GOVERNOR.
Democratic Friends of "Uncle Jimmy" Would Nominate Him.
During the evening of the Democratic banquet at Topeka, an organization of a large number of democrats was effected, pledging themselves to work for the nomination of Judge J. W. Green for the governor of Kansas. Such action by the democratic friends of "Uncle Jimmy" came as a surprise to him. He said today he knew nothing of such talk until he saw the Lawrence paper last night. If the Judge should take steps toward the attainment of such an honor, he would find friends in every town in the state where lawyers are practising and wherever men or women live who have been identified with the University.
Choral Evensong.
The following is the program for the next vesper services tomorrow afternoon, Feb. 25:

Anthem, The Glory ot God in Nature, Beethoven.
Nune Dimittis, Gregorian.
Postlude, violin with organ,
Largo,Händel.
Professor W. H. Carruth will deliver the address on "The Idea of God." The musical features are especially good. Miss Phipps will play a violin solo with organ accompaniment.
Mandolin Club Back.
The mandolin club returned from the Missouri trip Thursday. They gave two successful concerts, one at Mexico Tuesday night and one at Columbia Wednesday night. They were given a reception at Mexico after the concert, and reached Columbia too late for a reception that the glee club had planned for them, Wednesday afternoon. The reception was given after the concert, and the boys thus lost their chance to play matinee idols.
To Organize Base Ball Team.
The Dickinson county club is organizing a base ball team. Twenty-five students live in Dickinson and out of this number there is an unusual large number of ball players. It is quite likely that several other counties will have teams and a county tournament will no doubt be held this spring.
Owing to the fact that it is impossible to put the necessary machinery in the Fowler shops tower the testing room for lubricating oils is being set up in the basement of the shops.
GOOD PROSPECTS
BASEBALL PRACTICE BEGINS NFXT WEEK.
The Infield of Last Year Will be Back---Strong Pitching Staff.
Baseball practice commences in earnest next week. The past few days have been favorable as far as the weather was concerned and many of the candidates were out getting in shape. The prospect for a winning team for the coming season is good. Although the veteran outfield of last year will be missed, their loss will be more than counter-balanced by the fact that the infield has been left intact from last year and no pitchers will have to be developed. Hoffman, the mainstay of the team last season, will head the list of pitchers, and Carl Morgan has his work in shape to aid materially in the box. Meade of Beloit and Taylor of Larned have made good records as slab artists and will be promising candidates.
Brookens will probably play behind the bat but Angney and Justus will be strong competitors for the position. Young has his old place at first base "cinched," and Wilson, Bailey and Johnson will play their old positions. For the outfield, Bloss, Angney, Brown, Hetherington and Waring are promising candidates.
Besides the southern schedule during the spring vacation, the team will make a short northern campaign in which Nebraska, Iowa and Missouri will be played. The most interesting games of the whole season will be with Nebraska. The latter team has not suffered a defeat on her home ground for several years and it will be up to Kansas to break her record.
Piano Recital Tuesday Evening.
The third of the course of piano recitals will be given Tuesday February 27, at 8:15 in Frazer Hall by Mary Hallock. Mrs. Hallock's recital last year was one of the best ever given at the University and she should be greeted by a large audience. She is a cousin of Mary Hallock Foote the well known authoress and is herself a well known writer on musical topics.
One on "Fog" Allen.
The boys are telling a good one on Forrest Allen as a result of the recent basket ball trip. He went into a barber shop for a shave while in Chicago and the oily tongued individual inside persuaded Allen that a petroleum shampoo was just the thing. It cost him just one dollar to learn the ways of the city.

Dennis Johnson Sheedy made such a favorable impression upon the democrats at Topeka the other night that the Democratic committee has decided that a K. U. man has a permanent place on the program of the Democratic club.
The Mandolin Club boys say they know one thing about the trip next year—they are all in favor of a trip to Missouri. The Missourians never fail in hospitality, but they seem to have outdone themselves on this occasion.
Manager Lansdon says he did not give out the Yost story in an interview with a reporter in Nebraska as the article stated, but only mentioned the affair in a confidential talk with a professor of that institution. They have some of those reporters in Lincoln who write things out of their heads.
A number of professors have felt a call to serve on the City school board. Four have already announced themselves as candidates while several more are thinking of shying a castor into the ring. Dr. Van der Vries says he is in hard luck for the present candidates have pledged to go in "cahoots" against any candidate who has not at least two children or does not occupy a stick in "Who is Who."
As it is now arranged the "Junior Prom" comes on the night when all our High School visitors will be in the city for the spring inter school track meet. The High School committee has found that the Thursday night preceding is open and as we will have a holiday on the Friday following there should be no objection to putting the "Prom" one night earlier. It would be unwise to
have such a formal social event as the "Junior Prom" on the night we should be entertaining our high school guests.
This seems to be the young men's inning in Kansas politics. University men were well to the fore in the Kansas Day banquet, and at the Democratic Club banquet the young crowd were in the lead. And again University men were "there." They started a gubernatorial boom, which, whatever comes of it, shows the way college men are going to get into things.
Shun Big Words.
Clyde Matson of the Topeka State Journal lectured to the 11:15 newspaper class upon the subject of the "Special Article." "Well begun is half done in a magazine article," said Mr. Matson. "People often cast aside an interesting story just because the first few lines lack in interest. We often read an article because the first paragraph captures us and leads us to want more.
"A newspaper of plain, bare facts fails to attract us. The elements of human interest injected into the story, such as conversation repartee, personal happenings, are what add color to a story and make it of interest.
"We should shun fine writing and big words in journalism. Ideas are what count. Use words that will not force your readers to run to the dictionary to find their meaning. Don't compel your readers to diagram your sentences before they can understand them. Refrain from long complex sentences.
"Do not become discouraged if you do not get your first few articles printed. Lincoln Steffens achieved literary fame by his first story and then was unable to get another article published for three years."

Article by Professor Abbott.
The current number of the English Historical Review presents an article of thirty-five pages, the beginning of a series of articles on the Long Parliament of Charles II, by Professor W. C. Abbott, of the History department of the University of Kansas. The writer takes an entirely new position on the period of the Restoration. It involves a different estimate of Charles II's character and policy, and shows more clearly the continuity between the revolutions, giving a more adequate basis for explanation of the events of 1688. His point of view if established, will involve a reconstruction of historical opinion upon this important period, and must necessarily provoke wide discussion among students of English history.

"Without Franklin, the American Revolution would have failed," declared Professor F. H. Hodder, Friday morning in his sketch of Franklin's life. "He and Washington were the two men who were indispensible to the cause. Any others could have been replaced."
Professor Hodder traced the many-sided career of the printer, scientist, inventor, statesman, and diplomat, from the time he left his brother's print shop to the close of his diplomatic labors in France. Few men of any time have performed half as many public duties as Franklin. He was, as Professor Hodder suggested, greater in many ways than Washington, and withal, simple and proud of his self-made life was "Benjamin Franklin, Printer."
Newsboys Give Five Dollars.
A five dollar bill as the contribution from two of the campus newsboys to the Harper Memorial Library fund was laid on the desk of Registrar Thomas W. Goodspeed yesterday afternoon. The gift was a part of the earnings of Willie Carroll, nine years old, and his brother, Charlie, eight years old, of 519 East Sixty-second Street, the two youngsters who are to be seen selling the Saturday Evening Post around the campus.
"Dr. Harper done us a good turn once," they said and went on to tell about the morning when Dr. Harper found them at his door and after listening to their complaints that the police drove them off the campus whenever they tried to sell their papers, gave orders that they should not be molested.—Chicago Maroon.
New German Play.
The first rehearsal of "Die Lügnerin," which will be played by the German department, was held yesterday afternoon. The cast is not definitely filled, but by next week all parts will be assigned. The play will be given in Fraternal Aid Hall, April 20, when the conference of the teachers of the state will be held here. Other special features will be added to the program and it will be made the big event of the year for the department.
Guests of Post Dispatch.
Nine members of the Missouri University journalism class were entertained by the St. Louis Post Dispatch last week. Three days were spent in inspecting the different features of actual newspaper work and on Friday and Saturday the different members of the party were distributed over the city and gathered news under the supervision of the best reporters of the paper. The Post offers $25 for the best written account of the trip to be be published in the near future.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
VOLUME II.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FEBRUARY 28, 1906.
A NEW EDITOR
R. L. DOUGLASS CHOSEN UNANIMOUSLY BY THE BOARD.
He Is a Sophomore in the College, and Has Had Newspaper Experience.
At the regular meeting of the Kansan board Monday R. L. Douglass was unanimously chosen for editor for the ensuing year. He was elected managing editor a year ago and has filled that position so well there was no opposition to advancing him to editor in chief. The new editor is from Cherokee county and graduated from the Cherokee county High School. He
MARSHAL
R. L. DOUGLAS
has besides his years connection with the Kansan worked on several country dailies and weeklies.
All members of the Kansan board are chosen after a period of competition in which the aspirants are tried out. The new managing editor has not been chosen for the reason that the faculty committee has not given its recommendations. Four members of the board, Roy Moore, Carl Young, Wallace Hovey, and May Wallace are trying for the position.
The present system of choosing the Kansan board was begun a year ago. Professor E. M. Hopkins of the English department deserves the credit of originating it and working out its details. Before its adoption the editor and members of the board were chosen by a vote of the students who were subscribers to the paper.
Convocation Address.
Hon. J. W. Creech, of Herrington, will give the address in chapel Friday morning.
Inter-Fraternity Debate.
All desiring to enter the Inter-Fraternity debate must hand their names to Professor Frazier before tomorrow night March 1st. The subject chosen is the same as the Iowa debate question. The debate will be held April 13th.
WASHBURN TONIGHT.
K. U. Plays Washburn's Five in the Gymnasium.
NUMBER 43
The University Basket Ball team will play its first home inter-collegiate game in the gymnasium this evening. The contest will be the second of a series of three with Washburn College. The first game played in Topeka in January was won by the Kansas five. If the Kansas boys can annex this evenings match the series will end without the third game, but if Washburn should come out with the long end of the score the deciding contest will be held in Topeka in about a week.
No University enterprise deserves a more loyal support by students and faculty than the basket ball team. The five is a typical and ideal college organization. The men are all students of the best type, their training and practice is incident only to their school life, and aside from the cost of games they call on the student body for very little financial assistance. This year's team has met and defeated some of the very best organizations in the country and in its conduct and its play has reflected credit upon the University.
The game tonight will be the first of a series of three matches on the home court and should be patronized to the full capacity of the gymnasium. Extra seating capacity will be arranged for, and several hundred loyal Kansans should be present to cheer the team to victory.
Mrs. Hallock A Favorite.
Lovers of music were given a treat last night at the piano recital by Mrs. Mary Hallock in Fraser Hall. Mrs. Hallock is noted as a pianist principally for her high degree of technique which accomplishment she displayed beautifully in her playing last night. The fairly large audience continually encored especially after the first number—Bach, Prelude and Fugue.
Mrs. Hallock is a very unique character in that she was born in Siberia, and in her younger days she was made the heroine in one of Hawthorne's novels.
Senior Committee Appointed.
President Maddox appointed the committee on invitations today. It is composed of J. W. Kayser, Emil Brunner, Mabel Davis, Harry Davidson, Gertrude Gilmore, Nellie Potts.
Spring Football Practice.
WEEKS IS DEAD.
Coach Kennedy and Captain Donald are planning to begin spring practice for the football men within a few days. They expect by this method to get the men in better shape for the fall scrimmaging.
Famous Michigan Quarterback-- Jayhawker Coach '03.
Harold Weeks, the noted Michigan quarterback of 1902 and Jayhawker coach of 1903, died of diphtheria in Washington, D.C., Sunday night. "Boss" Weeks, as he was familiarly known on McCook field was singularly successful while under the direction of Coach Yost. He was captain of the "Wolverine" squad in 1902 and when Yost was about to leave Michigan in 1903, Weeks was his most talked of successor.
While at Kansas Weeks adopted the "hurry up" system of coaching and on account of his change of tactics he almost had to develop a new team. "Boss" Weeks discovered while here Brunner and Captain Donald, the two Kansas tackles that at present hold the admiration of all true Jayhawker gridiron supporters. It was under Weeks' tutorship that Kansas played the Cornhuskers the last game of football and were defeated 6 to 0.
Coach Weeks at present has a damage suit pending against Chancellor Strong. This suit will be dropped. The suit against the athletic board for breach of contract will be prosecuted by Weeks' attorneys.
Qualities of Kansas Oil.
The Engineering department is placing apparatus in the basement of Fowler shops for the purpose of testing the lubricating qualities of the different oils of Kansas. Machinery is being installed which will be run at a given known speed and pressure and for a given length of time using the different oils. In this way their lubricating qualities will be noted and compared. A six-horse power steam engine and a gasoline engine have been installed to run this machinery. A laboratory was fitted up in the tower of Fowler Shops last winter for the purpose of testing oils chemically.
The 25 Gave Party.
The 25, a dancing club composed of non-fraternity men, gave the fifth of their series of parties in Fraternal Aid hall last Saturday night. About 50 couples were present. Dancing was especially fine because of the uncrowded condition of the floor.
Sumner vs. Dickinson.
Sumner County has challenged Dickinson County to a game of base ball next Saturday morning at 10 o'clock.

Professor Carruth will be accompanied by Mrs. Carruth and their daughter Constance. They will reside at Berlin where the Professor will write a book entitled, "A Study of the German Novel." Professor Carruth has been at the head of the department of German Language and Literature and Vice-Chancellor since 1887 and during that time has edited Schiller's Wallenstein, Scheffel's Ekkehard, Schiller's William Tell and besides has written "Carruth's German Reader," "Kansas in Literature," "Each in His own Tongue" and has contributed poems and articles to the New York Independent, the Cosmopolitan and many other magazines. Professor Carruth will not return for a year.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1906
With this issue of the Kansan the present editor severs his editorial connection with the paper. A year ago he took charge of the Kansan and if he were assured that all future journalistic ventures would be as pleasant as this one has been he would have much happiness in store. The Kansan during the past year has received better support from the students and townspeople than any college paper for years back. If it in any way merited this support it is because of the faithful and diligent work of the Kansan board and the excellent printing done by the Graduate Magazine plant. The people on the advertising and news side of the Kansan have worked earnestly, even at the neglect of their studies, to make it a representative college paper. How well they have succeeded is for you to judge.
R. L. Douglas the new editor of the Kansan is a sophomore in the college. He has had considerable newspaper experience on country weeklies and dailies His level headedness and excellent good judgment marked him for the next editor from the day he was first elected to the board. He was the unanimous choice of the board and will receive the same cordial support that the former editor has received.
The new managing editor has not been selected as the faculty committee has not made its recommendation, but it will be done at the next meeting of the board. ___
The Juniors, in giving way for the high school events on the day originally set for the Prom., displayed the spirit that every department of the institution should feel for each other. They deserve full credit for their action. Simple as it is, this harmonizing of interests, it has not always been the rule in the University even in quite recent times.
STUDENTS, COME OUT.
Support Basket Ball, Base Ball and Track Same as Football.
The student body of the University is at all times interested in the success of the athletic teams of the institution. This interest to be most effective should take the form of financial support. The student patronage of foot-ball during the last season was good. Basket ball, base ball, and track athletics deserve the same sort of loyal backing and need it even more than foot ball. Without money athletic enterprises cannot be carried on. The Athletic Association is at the beginning of a season of sports that never yield any large financial returns but are expensive if conducted in a way consistent with the dignity and standing of the University.
Students and professors should attend the basket ball games that remain on the schedule and give generous encouragement to the base ball and track teams. The basket ball game with Washburn College in the gymnasium this evening would be a mighty good time to contribute a quarter and some enthusiasm to the support of University athletics.

Sophs Win Championship.
The sophomores defeated the seniors in the fifth game of the basket ball tournament Monday afternoon, by a score of 48 to 21. The result of the game "cinches"the claim of the sophomores to the class championship of the school, since they have not been defeated as yet.
The game was rough from start to finish and the '08 men took the lead at the beginning. At the end of the first half the score was 25 to 0, but the seniors made things more lively during the second half and made a total of 21 points. Bliss and Pooler did the best playing for the fourth year men, while Angney and Bond made over two thirds of the baskets for the sophs. The champion team is composed of the following men: Angney and Justice, forwards; "Red" Burt, center; Bond and Roberts, guards.

HOW KANSAS FOUND RELIHAN.
Swedes Ran Him in at Lindsborg Three Years Ago.
A K. U. base ball team once found out the worth of Coach Relihan. During a southern Kansas trip in '03 Kansas had two games scheduled with the Swedes at Lindsborg. The latter were particularly anxious to beat the State University and in so doing were not adverse to using questionable methods. They attempted to use a Fort Riley pitcher in the first contest but Sexton happened to recognize the soldier and Bethany was compelled to use their regular pitcher. Kansas won by a good margin.
In the game on the following
day the tall, lanky slab artist for Bethany was a wonder to the Jayhawkers. He was so effective that Kansas was lucky to score. After the game it developed that the supposed Bethany pitcher was none other than Art Relihan, one of the best pitchers in the Missouri Valley League. It is needless to say that Bethany was cut off the Kansas schedule in the future.
The Fowler Shops were kept open on Washington's Birthday because some of the students wanted to work that day, it being their regular weekly shop day, but no students reported for work. Hereafter the Shops will be shut up on holidays.

Allen and Scott Controversy Causes a Lively Debate.
Two hundred Republican students of Kansas University met at noon Tuesday and organized a Republican Club. Hon. C. I. Martin, state senator from Bourbon county, was electeq president; B. A. Earhart of Sumner county, vice president, Chester A. Leinbach, of Pottawatomie county, secretary; and A. I. Beach, of Allen county, treasurer.
The meeting was called together by the Henry Allen supporters. However, the Scott forces were there, and immediately after the meeting was called to order J. W. Kayser introduced a motion to pledge the support of the club for Congressman Scott. A lively debate ensued in which C. O. Pingry championed the Allen cause. After many hot speeches were made on each side the motion was laid on the table.
