THIS YEAR'S FOOTBALL
EIGHT K MEN REPORT FOR PRACTICE WEDNESDAY.
The Schedule Heavy This Year After Eleven Years the Jayhawkers Play Iowa.
Next Wednesday afternoon Coach Kennedy will line up his big squad of gridiron gladiators for the first time this season and will begin to whip them into condition for the heaviest schedule that a Jayhawker team ever went against.
The season begins in earnest on September 26th, when the Emporia Normals come to McCook. The Normalites have been training since September 5th and may spring a surprise on Kansas. On October 3rd Ottawa plays in Lawrence followed by the Aggies a week later. Oklahoma ushers in the heavy part of the schedule on McCook October 17th. Washington University displaces St. Louis University this year and comes to Lawrence on October 24th.
After a week's rest the Kansans must go against the four strongest teams in the Missouri Valley in a period of only nineteen days. Washburn ends the local season on November 7th and on November 14th Captain Crowell will lead his warriors into the Cornhusker camp at Lincoln.
For the first time in six years Kansas will play a member of the Big Nine. Iowa is the star attraction this season. The last Kansas-Iowa game was in '97. Coach Kennedy was at that time the Jayhawk captain and his huskies trounced the Iowans to the tune of 56 to 0. The Iowa game will be played in Iowa City November 21.
The annual Thanksgiving clash with Missouri is sure to be played in Kansas City this year. While the contract for Association park has not been signed there is no doubt but that the deal will go through.
Of last year's football team Captain Rouse and White, ends; Milton, center; Miller and Forter backs; will be out of the game. There are left, however, eight K men who are nearly sure to make places.
FOOTBALL CANDIDATES
The returning stars are Reed, the giant guard and star of the team last year; Captain Crowell and Caldwell, tackles; Carlson, guard; Porter, Rice and Waring, backs; and Pleasant, end.
There are other experienced candidates for every position on the team. Tom Johnson, the basket ball player, Steele, Coulter, and Newbold are trying out for quarter; Stephenson,

FACULTY CHANGE
MANY NEW PROFESSORS THIS
FALL.
The Mathematics and German Departments Have the Most Changes.
Many members of the University faculty of last year have resigned or obtained leave of absence and their successors have been selected by the Board of Regents. Mr.J. A.Campbell, an assistant professor in German last year has gone to Austria and Germany where he will teach during the coming winter and at the same time make an advanced study of the German language and literature. Miss Esther Wilson, of Lawrence, will take his place this year. Dr. Clara Holst of Christiana University, Norway, an assistant professor has resigned from the German department and returned to Europe. A.N. Sturtezant will take the place of Dr. Holst. He has been studying in Germany and Norway during the past year.
William U. Moore has resigned from the Law school and accepted a position in Wisconsin University. H.W.Humble of Chicago University will be the new member of the Law faculty. He will rank as an associate professor and teach all the special law courses.
In the Mathematics department assistant professor U. G. Mitchell has been given a year's leave of absence to take a teaching fellowship in Princeton. Carl Werneicke of Cincinnatti has his place. Instructor Arthur Pitcher and Professor Charles Ashton also have leaves of absence. Mr. Pitcher will study in Chicago University and Professor Ashton will spend the winter in Europe. Meyer Gaba of Chicago and George Hargewell of Columbia University will fill the vacancies. On account of the increased enrollment a new assistant professorship has been created in mathematics and Charles A. Pierce of the Michigan Agricultural College has the position.
Assistant professors A. D. Schoch and Eliot Boardman have resigned from the department of Romance languages. Mr. Schoch will teach in Honduras University this winter and his place will be taken by F. A. Lamotte of the University of Wisconsin. W. T. Ward of Western Reserve will displace Mr. Boardman who will study in the east.
H. C. Allen of Kansas City has secured the position in the chemistry department made vacant by David McFarland who will take advanced work at Yale.

2400 THIS YEAR
EVERYTHING POINTS TO BANNER ENROLLMENT.
Registrar Foster Is Confident the Year Will be a Recordbreaker
George O. Foster, registrar, estimates that the enrollment during the coming year will pass 2400 mark. This estimate is based upon the fact that the University has grown, and should continue to grow at a certain rate, and that an unusually large number of prospective students have stated their intention of matriculating.
The recent additions to the engineering school have attracted many new students. The electrical engineering building is nearly completed and will be opened as soon as the heating plant is enlarged. The mining building will be started at once and should be finished by September, 1909.
As the Kansan went to press early this afternoon the enrollment for the fall term had reached 810, which with the summer school enrollment brings the total thus far to 1213.
DEATH OF MRS. CARRUTH.
Passed Away Suddenly After a Brief Illness.
Frances Schlegel Carruth wife of Vice-Chancellor Carruth, died on the morning of September 3, at the family home at 1346 Louisiana street after a brief illness.
Mrs. Carruth was born in Boston in 1854. She came to the University in 1874 as assistant professor of modern languages and was a member of the faculty until 1882. In that year she married Professor Carruth. Their daughter Constance is the wife of Elmer McCollum, a member of the faculty of Wisconsin University.
In the life of the University Mrs. Carruth always took an active interest, and in the women's clubs and other intellectual activities of the town she was a leader. In every good work her presence will be missed.
J. Wilbur Jones, a junior in the College will be principal of the Sabetha high school this year.

Y. M. C. A. HAS A NEW HOME
THE ASSOCIATION HOUSE WAS OPENED LAST FRIDAY.
New Students Will Be Cared for at Myers Hall-Stag Social Friday Night.
The University Y. M. C. A. has engaged Myers Hall for headquarters during the coming school year. The office of Secretary J. P. Hagerman will be located there and an employment and information bureau will be maintained. Any new or old students who are in search of work, a rooming house or a boarding place can apply at the Hall and his needs will be looked after. The employment bureau is under direct supervision of Captain Donald this year and the list of persons desiring employees is complete.
The annual Y. M. C. A. stag social takes place Friday night, September 18, in the reception rooms at Myers Hall. This will be the first of a series of class and school receptions intended to get the new students acquainted with each other and with the upper classmen. The probable speakers Friday are Chancellor Strong, Secretary Hagerman and Frank Parker, president of the association.
The hand book this year is the best ever gotten out by the Y. M.C.A. It contains one hundred and forty-six pages of interesting matter. Any person may receive one of the books by merely asking for it.
The regular weekly Y. M.C. A. meeting will be held on Thursday evening at Myers Hall. Prominent students and members of the faculty have been engaged to speak from time to time. Two hundred students can be accommodated at the regular meetings.
Y. W. C. A. HOUSE.
In New Location This Year at 300 West Adams.
The Y. W. C. A. girls have the house at 300 West Adams for their home and headquarters this year. The house is now open to all girl students. Members of the association will direct new girls to rooming and boarding houses and help them get started in their work. The Christian Association's hand book will be given away to girls at the Y. W. C. A. house.
Killed by a Live Wire.

THE CHANCELLOR'S GREETING
Following the custom of former years, the Chancellor takes the opportunity offered by the Kan-
san to extend a welcome home again to the students of the University of Kansas. Already the University spirit is showing itself more powerful than ever, and the standards of University life are becoming higher and higher. The year just beginning is likely to be one of great importance to the University in many ways. The students that come to us for the first time should get into the best spirit and tradition of the institution, and, like the students of past years, make up their minds to self-control and the sacrifice of some of their inclinations for the good of the institution. Few of the two thousand and more who are enrolling this year will ever go to another university, and what the University of Kansas shall be in the future will determine entirely the worth of their university connection. He is a fortunate man indeed who has behind him in after life the influence and power of a great university. FRANK STRONG.
TO THE FRESHMAN
During the whirl and buzz of the opening weeks at the University it is well for the first year man to stop a moment and consider that school life here is not all joy and glitter as it seems in the busy days at the beginning of them. Last year an alarming number of freshmen failed at the first term finals, merely because they continued the good times of University life to an excess and failed to realize the value of good hard study till it was too late. It is of great importance to the new student to stop every day or two and remind himself of the fact that he came here primarily for an education,and
not for the fun of the thing.
Just now there is a small cloud in the horizon. It is scarcely noticeable, but will grow black and ominous at the last of the term to the unfortunate who forgets his business here. The cloud is the first quiz week. Watch it grow.
EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Of course every new student will take advantage of the cheap rate to all the athletic games and student entertainments by investing in a Student Enterprise ticket. And no cheaper form of sick insurance can be found than membership in the University Hospital Association.
It is a fact of some significance that W. P. Hackney of Winfield, who was a candidate for nomination for the Legislature with the single plank in his platform of reducing the appropriations of the University, failed in his political aspirations and his district will be represented by a thinker of less mediaeval tendencies. As long as the University spends its money as profitably to the State as it does at present, the taxpayers may be counted on to foot the bills cheerfully.
Those impecunious members of the student body who have been wont to line up under the windows of the Chancellor's office to inhale rich whiffs from the ten, fifteen, and twenty-five cent cigars during the regents' meetings may view with alarm the proposed addition of a woman member to the board.
The report that sunset-at-sea effects are to be tabooed in men's socks this year promise well for a season of studious quiet at the library.
Along with the other numerous activities attendant on the opening of the University,

the political clubs will doubtless proceed to get busy in this presidential year of grace. And it will not be surprising if school politics form a decided contrast to the peaceful calm that brooded over the hill last year.
Petition to the Governor Being Circulated among Alumni.
FOR A WOMAN REGENT.
A petition to the governor of Kansas asking him to appoint a woman as member of the Board of Regents of the University has been circulated among the alumni during the summer. The movement to secure a woman regent is headed by Kate Stephens, '75, who made a talk on the subject at the University dinner last commencement.
The petition sets forth the claim that since K. U. is a coeducational school, women have a right to be represented on the Board of Regents, and makes reference to the good work done by women regents at other schools where the plan has been tried.About 150 graduates in Lawrence have signed the petition.

You Young Chaps!
If you want the satisfaction of knowing that no man or youth in the land is dressed in more perfect taste than you are this fall, select your suit from any one of the various
sets of new models now exhibited in our youths' department. Some of the designs are extreme, of course, but no one can say that they are not thoroughly in accord with good taste, culture, and refinement. It is, in a word, the most perfectly complete array of young men's swagger, fashionable suits this community has viewed in years. Every garment in every line is a brand new and authoritative design for this fall and winter.

Engineers Do Good Work.
State architect Stanton inspected the electrical wiring in the new electrical engineering building last week and announced that the work was the best he had ever seen. Will Kenny and George Russell, engineers in the University, and William Hopper, of Manhattan, were the wirers.
STORY WAS A MYTH.
Rumors of Gastronomic Hardships Utterly Unfounded.
Every student, just before he leaves for the University, fills up on a last square meal of mother's cooking, thinking sadly the while of the long months that must elapse before he again tastes anything so delicious. How agreeable is his surprise when he finds on reaching Lawrence that there is an eating place that has his case in mind and has made special provision to enable him to continue his regular fare. That place is the Fairfax, at 708 Massachusetts Street, and there mother's cooking is served three times a day. The student who takes his meals there will find his homesickness gone before he knows it in the home-like atmosphere and unexcelled fare of the place. Specially fine service is provided at the Sunday dinners which have already made the Fairfax famous.

There is no question of Gustafson's right to be called the "College Jeweler." Probably he sells more K. U. Jewelry than all the other jewelers in Lawrence, combined. He not only secures every new K. U. design which comes out, but has been instrumental in originating several new ones himself and aside from all these considerations, he is "one of the boys." Whenever there is something wanted, Broer is always with the students and they show their appreciation by their patronage. Doubtless his store will be student headquarters, as it has been heretofore.

Clinging to Fraser Hall are some grand specimen vines of old English ivy, covered from top to bottom with little blue grapes. The Kansan would like to have every student press the seeds out of two or three of these grapes and send them home for immediate planting a souvenir from old K.U. This ivy will cling of itself to any brick or stone building, but will need a chicken-wire trellis to enable it to climb to the eaves of the ordinary dwelling of wood. Do it now!

Bond, Veatch, Dahlene, Fiske, Cowles, Mallam, and Lobaugh for the back field; Wood, Forde, Smith and Gurley for guard and tackle; Priest, Houghton, Loreditsch, Ransom and Hennessey for ends; and Speer for center.
Stephenson, Johnson, Dahlene and Mallam are learning to punt and from the four Coach Kennedy hopes to develop a man to take the place of Forter.
It is likely that Arthur St. Leger Mosse, who did such good work two years ago, will assist Kennedy in the coaching. Mosse was a great football player and the best punter Kansas ever had.
There will be few stars on the team this year. Coach Kennedy will rely on team work. He has enough candidates to put out two teams of about the same strength as far as the individual players are concerned. When the big Jayhawker machine gets going right it will be hard to stop. The line will probably be a little heavier than last year and the back field should be faster and heavier than last season.

FOOTBALL PRACTICE
TWENTY CANDIDATES IN THE FIRST WORKOUT.
Wednesday afternoon Bert Kennedy, mentor of the Jayhawker football squad, put his pupils through the first practice of a strenuous season. Punting and forward passing made up the first lesson. The men are not yet in condition for heavy scrimmage work but by the first of next week all the veterans will be down to football weight and ready to mix it with the scrubs.
The Veterans in Fair Shape—the New Men Make Good Showing.
Twenty experienced men were out for practice Wednesday and most of them were in fair condition. "Old Bill" Caldwell looks as though he could play a hard game tomorrow and suffer no ill effects, Tommie Johnson and Steele, the two most prominent candidates for
HENRY GRAFFIELD
CAPTAIN PAT CROWELL who will lead the Jayhawker squad this year.
Captain "Pat" Crowell is a few pounds overweight, but nevertheless he gets into the game as though it were midseason. Big "Tub" Reed was not in uniform but his expansive smile told plainly enough that he was restless to get into the harness. Reed looks bigger and broader and brawnier than ever before and he ought to make one fine guard this fall. Waring, who made a great showing in the back field three years ago, and Carlson, the guard, will be ready for a hard season's work by next week.
The fourteen other candidates looked mighty good. Tom

FORCE SUBJECT OF ADDRESS
EX-CAPTAIN OF 20TH KANSAS GAVE CHAPEL SPEECH.
(Contnued on page 4)
Talked to a large Audience in the Chapel on the Value of the Man Who Does Things.
To an audience that filled every seat and all the available standing room Captain Clad Hamilton, of Topeka,journalist lawyer,soldier,troubadour and candidate for state senator, delivered the opening address in the University chapel this morning. The subject of the address was "Force."
In part Captain Hamilton said:
"It has been my fortune to know a good many men having different characteristics. I have observed that there are men, as there are boys, who seem to possess a natural instinct and habit of doing what they set out to do. If such a man is sent to bring an armful of wood or build a barb wire fence or a railroad, he does it. Other men have the habit of failure and if sent to do anything bring back excuses instead of performance. This habit of efficiency or non-efficiency does not seem to be associated with either what we call good character or bad character. Some very bad men have great efficiency, some good men fail in all they undertake. It is difficult to tell just what constitutes that peculiar quality of efficiency, but in every instance there must be the quality of "force."
You may draw up a lovely plan, but the blue print is not the equivalent of the bridge. You may have a fine imagination, the artistic temperament, you may be familiar with Caesar's Commentaries and know the Marquis of Queensbury rules by heart, your military learning may be a wonder, but if you win the game you have got to "hit the line hard."
We are frequently led astray by the reflection that "times are different now." We think we could easily have been like Trajan or Marcus Aurelius or other great men that we wish to be like. But that excuse will not go. Times are not substantially different—human nature is not greatly different from what it was in those days. Roughly speaking, men were judged on their merits then as now. If they were crooked and dishonest other men knew it and rated them accordingly.

WANTS GAME
COMMITTEE FROM ST. JOE IS HERE TODAY.
Furnish Park and Advertising, Pay Expenses of 25 Men for St. Joe Game.
Dr. L. A. Todd, Chas. Faust, and E. H. Spencer, all old K. U. students, are at the university as representatives of the Commercial conference committee, of St. Joseph, for the purpose of bringing the Thanksgiving game to St. Joe. They have with them a proposition that looks good and they will meet with the athletic board in the morning for the purpose of presenting it.
St. Joe agrees to furnish a place to play the game where there is a seating capacity of 12,000, to furnish all the billboard and hand bill advertising free of charge, to pay the railroad and hotel expenses of 25 men from Lawrence to St.Joe, and to decorate all the business streets of the city with the university colors. In addition to this they will guarantee that the fare to St. Joe shall not exceed by more than $1.25 the fare to Kansas City and that the time shall not be more than an hour longer.
The only other proposition so far presented to the athletic board is one made by manager Tabeau, of Kansas City. He wants 17 1-2 percent of the gate receipts and only agrees to furnish a park with a seating capacity of 9,000, and offers none of the other inducements offered, by the people of St. Joseph.
Seed and Song.
Upon a quiet seed,
Fell a warm drop of rain;
And a banner of emerald
Soon waved above the plain.
Upon a quiet mood
A drop of insight lit.
And a graceful blade of song
Grew lovely out of it.
—HARRY H. KEMP.
Lee's New "Joint".
The much needed "feed house" and ice cream "joint' in the center of the student district has, been furnished this summer by Lee Bryant, the loyal rooter for all things at Kansas. The building is a neat one. The refreshment parlors are fitted with mission furniture.
The barber shop separated from the rest of the structure is a model. "Shike" will be on hand this winter with all the new ideas in the art of shines.

KANSANTO CONTINUE AS TRI-WEEKLY.
The Kansan will continue the coming year as a tri-weekly paper. The tri-weekly was started the latter part of last year and has been a success in every way. The subscription rate was not changed last term, but it has been found necessary to advance the rate for the coming year. The tri-weekly Kansan subscription rate will be $1.50 for the school year. The Kansan has always received generous support from the student body and trusts the same support will be forthcoming this year. An effort will be made to keep in close touch with student affairs and the doings of those who have been in the University but are now gone. The management of the Kansan hopes to see the list of subscribers from the alumni and ex-students of the University grow much larger than it has ever been before.
EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Out of over 1500 students who had up until last evening enrolled in the University only about 400 had paid the athletic fee of $3.00. It is of course not to be believed that out of the 1500 students enrolled only 400 are going to support student enterprises, but it is hard to understand why the students do not indicate their intentions to be loyal supporters of the organizations of the University by paying the fee to start with. The three dollar fee system to be a success must have the support of a majority of the students. It is unnecessary to speak of the advantages the fee is to the student. The admission to the football games alone that the ticket allows is more than double the cost of the ticket. In addition to this there are eight other student enterprises that share in the fund and furnish from two to ten games or entertainments. It is a saving to the student, a support for student organizations and a boost for the University to pay the fee. For these reasons the Kansan is inclined to believe every student enrolling in the University should pay the fee. If you have not paid make haste to do so.
In the wicked, olden days tradition says the fraternities were wont to lure the freshmen to the chapter house and entertain him in the convivial manner of a Kentucky colonel. But all has changed. It is reported that one of the fraternities presents each rushee with a Y. M. C. A. ticket. Alas! ere the death groans of the Theta Nu Epsilon have hardly died the fraternity world of K. U. seems to be reaching for the millennium.

BAILEY PURE FOOD EXPERT.
On National Committee to Frame Sanitary Laws.
Professor E. H. S. Bailey of the chemistry department attended the National Pure Food Convention held at Mackinac, Michigan, this summer. He was appointed one of five men who will compose a committee to suggest more stringent sanitary laws to the various state legislatures. The convention decreed a war against all frauds in food manufacture. The use of preservatives in foods and the bleaching of flour will be especially attacked. Professor Bailey will have charge of the pure food crusade in Kansas.
Kansas City the Place.
Wednesday Owner Tebeau came to terms with the football managers of Kansas and Missouri Universities and a contract was entered into, by the terms of which the annual Thanksgiving game is to be played at Association park in Kansas City for the next five years. Tebeau is to receive seventeen and one-half per cent of the gross receipts of the game as rental. The number of passes issued has been limited to 300,125 to each University and fifty to the park management.
Association park can be made to accommodate more than 10,000 people and owing to the close score last year there ought to be a record-breaking crowd at the exhibition next November.
NEW RUSHING STUNT
K. U. Fraternity Trys to Lure Freshies With Y. M. Cards.
One of the fraternities has added a new rushing stunt to its list which IF it was carried out by all the fraternities would make for the religious good of the freshies and would be a gold mine for the Y. M. C. A A freshman was taken to one of the fraternity houses and among the many things done for him was the presentation of a membership card in the university Young Men's Christian Association. The unwary freshman took the card not knowing that it was worth a dollar and when he was found sometime later by some friends who belonged to another fraternity he had chewed one corner off the card. The freshman did not pledge to the fraternity that presented him the membership card for he was a wicked freshman and his mind was bent on things of this world.

Y. M. C. A. Stag Tonight.
Tonight the annual Y. M. C. A. stag social will be held in Myers Hall at 8 o'clock. The affair will be strictly informal and all the men of the University are invited. This will be the first and best opportunity for new students to become acquainted with each other and with the upper classmen.
Chancellor Strong will make the address of welcome and Frank Parker, president of the association, will speak. Music will be furnished by George Brown and other students. Light refreshments are to be served and the evening will be passed singing the college songs giving yells and getting acquainted.
FIRE DEPARTMENT LATER.
Six Men Will Get Free Rooms When Appropriation Comes.
On the upper floor of the new carpenter and pipe shop, which was completed last spring, a room has been set aside to be used as sleeping quarters by half a dozen University students, who will comprise the University fire department. The men will receive their rooms free in return for their service. A small chemical engine will be stored on the ground floor. There is no money at present available for the purchase of the engine, and the department cannot be organized until the next appropriation has been made safe by the legislature.
READY FOR THE SICK.
Hospital Association Has a. Good Plan of Insurance.
From the present prospects it appears that that the University Hospital Association will experience a year of unprecedented growth during 1908-9. Already 200 students have paid the two dollars fee which gives them the benefits of the association but many more will doubtless follow.
Dr. H. L. Chambers of the faculty has been secured by the Association to act as the physician. He will have offices in the gymnasium where he will meet any member of the association for consultation. If the student is unable to walk, Dr. Chambers will give him medical attention in his room. In cases of serious illness the patient will be taken to the hospital where he will be under the care of graduate nurses.
The only expense that the member of the hospital association will have to bear in time of illness or injury will be the cost of the food while in the hospital. In order to secure the above benefits of the association it will be necessary to secure 700 members.

ENROLLMENT EXCEEDS NUMBER LAST YEAR BY 200.
Few Are Taking the Athletic Fee and Paying the Hospital Fee.
When George O. Foster, registrar, closed his office for chapel this morning 1,780 students had enrolled. 450 had taken athletic tickets and 200 had joined the hospital association.
The enrollment exceeds that of last year at this time by over 200. On Friday evening of the opening day last year the number was 1,611.
All morning a crowd of weary, anxious freshmen stormed the office of the registrar and the dean arguing desperately for grades and straight entrance. The transcripts from accredited high schools are going through with little trouble. The freshman with all required entrance credits can be seen with a satisfied smile. Those who are back one or two hours are looking dubious.
The number taking athletic tickets is surprisingly low. Last year 1,500 had taken advantage of the privilege at this time. The hospital fee is going slowly.

Stephenson, a sub last year, showed up well. Tom is learning to boot the ball and he may do the punting for the team this season. In a few days all the old stars will be back and every evening McCook will be the scene of a mad fight by not less than thirty men for the eleven coveted positions.
Political Clubs Busy.
The men of the University who are interested in the great game of politics will soon have the opportunity to boost their favorite candidates.
The state and national elections will be hard fought this fall and the students will not be slow to get into the conflict. Already the members of the Republican and Democratic clubs are arranging to perfect their organizations and make plans for the campaign. The Republicans will organize next Tuesday at 12:15. The local club will cooperate with the Taft, Stubbs, Bristow club down town. Tuesday night a Republican jollification will take place in the club room on Massachusetts street.
The democrats are particularly active this year and will organize at once.
I don't hang them up, but will get your work to you in good shape. I don't put any limit on work but will take it as you call up.

when it was their duty to do it.
It is a magnificent encouragement to young men now living to reflect that not only can we do what other men have done, but we can do things which othermen have not done. The power of men is greater than it has ever been before, and the need of the spirit of generosity and helpfulness is just as great. And the reward of ungrudging affection, admiration and eulogy will go only to those men whose power, efficiency and cleverness are expended in the spirit of true service."

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
VOLUME V.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SEPTEMBER 22, 1908.
DR. F. H. SNOW IS DEAD
FORMER CHANCELLOR OF THE UNIVERSITY PASSED AWAY AT DELAFIELD, WISCONSIN.
Was a Member of the First Faculty and Helped to Organize the Courses and Classes for the First Session Forty=Two Years Ago.
Last spring Dr. Snow was forced to quit active work in the University and seek a change of climate for his health. He went to Bonner Springs Sanitarium where he remained for several weeks. This summer he went to Delavan Lake, Wisconsin, and has been at that place and at Hessel, Michigan, all summer in hopes of bettering his failing health.
The immediate cause of his death was heart failure. Twenty minutes before that time he was feeling as well as usual. No members of the family were present at the time of his death. Charles Siler, a former University student, was with him.
Francis Huntington Snow, former chancellor of the University and a scholar and scientist of world-wide fame, died at Delafield, Wisconsin, Sunday morning at 7:30 o'clock, after an illness of more than a year.
During the forty-two years of the history of the University Dr. Snow has been connected in some way with the institution. He was chancellor for eleven years, was one of the first faculty which consisted of three men, and has held an important place in the school up to the time of his death. He secured for Kansas a collection of insects worth $50,000 and second only to that of Harvard. The magnificent Museum and Gellar Hall.
Snow Hall named in his honor are the direct results of his labors.
He was born in Fitchburg, Massachusetts, June 29, 1840. Here he spent his early childhood with his parents, and attained honors in the public and high schools of that place. After graduation from high school he entered college and began a life that was to be spent in educational work. He received A.B., A.M., Ph.D. degrees from Williams College; was graduated from Andover Theological Seminary in 1866 and ordained minister of the Congregational church at the same time; and received the Doctor of Law degree from Princeton in 1890.
In 1866 he came to Lawrence and took a chair of Mathematics. The University was then housed in old North College. The faculty at that time consisted of D. H. Robinson, E. J. Rice and Dr. Snow, and the advantages offered by the school were meager indeed.
With all possible chance for improving the conditions as he found them, Professor Snow began his work in the University. For forty-two years he continued his efforts and watched the school grow from one poor building to a great educational system of many well equipped buildings and a faculty of several hundred men and a student body of more than 2000. In 1890 he was appointed chancellor, a position he held for eleven years. Although he performed his duties as chief executive faithfully, he did not like the task and gladly resigned in 1901 and went back to his work in science which he continued practically up to his death.
Dr. Snow married Jane Appleton Aiken in Andover, Mass., July 8, 1868. To this union six children were born, four of whom are now living. The great grief of Dr. Snow's life was the death of his son,
1874
FRANCIS HUNTINGTON SNOW
NUMBER ;
Will Snow, who fell from a press launch and was drowned in San Francisco harbor on the return of the Twentieth Kansas from the Philippines. The Government granted Dr. Snow the use of a vessel to aid in searching for the body. The remaining members of the family are, Miss Edith Snow and mother, Mrs. William Harvey Brown, Rhodesia, Africa; Mrs. Professor E.C. Gase, Michigan University; and Frank Snow, of Chicago
At the time Dr. Snow came to the University he aspired to the chair of Greek, but in the apportionment of subjects was given mathematics and natural science. Soon he became so interested in entomology that he made it his life work, and the University's present magnificent collection is a monument to his devotion and untiring energy. In nearly every year of his University service
he made one or more expeditions in search of specimens. The last one was made in 1907 to Arizona. On that trip Dr. Snow was bitten by a Gila monster but suffered no ill effects. On these trips many new kinds of insects were found and classified, and a number of varieties have been named after Dr. Snow by scientists all over the country.
On the expedition of 1871 the Snow party narrowly escaped being massacred by the Apache Indians in New Mexico.
In the early 90's Dr. Snow won fame for the University and himself by discovering a method of inoculating chinch bugs with a disease which rapidly swept this pest from the farms of the State. This service to the State was largely influential in removing the prejudice which regarded the University as a place of impractical theorists.
Among the works of Dr. Snow was the creation of the meteorological bureau at the University. Ever since the second year of the University's existence a daily record of weather conditions has been kept, and until his retirement from active service Dr. Snow himself prepared the monthly weather summary which is sent by the University to the publications of the State.
Dr. Snow's ill health dates from the time his son Will was drowned in San Francisco harbor. When he returned from his unsuccessful search for the body he was broken in spirit, out by sheer determination kept at his work until fifteen months ago when bodily weakness compelled his retirement.

The fneral services will be held at the family residence at 3 o'clock Thursday. On the day of the services there will be no classes in the University.

Ex-Kansan Gets Appointment. Dr. George I. Adams, A. B. 93, has been recently appointed by the government as head of the geological survey in the Philippine Islands under the control of the United States Geological Survey and which will conduct work similar to that done in this country. Dr. Adams returned only last February from South America where for nearly three years he had been preparing a Hydrographic Survey of Peru for that government.
Dr. Snow-An Appreciation.
Some one has fitly said that in the presence of death all things become trite. Words were not made to express the gratitude that a people feel for a friend or public benefactor who has given a life of splendid service to a cause, or an institution which they love, but when death comes it is no more than due the one who is gone that the living attest as far as words will permit the esteem of those with whom his life was spent.
In the death of Dr. Snow the University and the people of Kansas have lost a friend whose life was given to their service with a seeming unselfishness rarely found. In his death the last tie that bound the beginning to the present has been broken. Forty-two years ago he came to the institution with which his life was passed. How different the conditions of then and now. The nation had not yet emerged from the pall of sorrow cast by a bloody war and bleeding Kansas was still a reality of the times. The University was smaller than a hundred high schools in the Kansas of today.
The ex-chancellor came to Kansas in the days when even the professor must have something of the rugged pioneer in his make up and this he had to an eminent degree. He with the others toiled and struggled, and was content with little things but always kept his gaze towards the greater things that he knew his toil was bringing. He was forced to suffer the stings of ridicule for higher education was an unpopular thing in the pioneer community. But he battled against the odds that surrounded him. He was always devoted to the institution, he watched it grow and he became its head, but all the time he was growing older and the weight of years began to leave their mark. Despite the growing infirmities of age he labored on and on until the school he had started became one of the greatest in the west. But his hair was now white and the buoyancy of youth had been lost in the long years of labor. A tragedy, the drowning of a favorite son, may have helped to hasten the end. Dr. Snow had not quite reached the allotted span of life but he had lived long enough to see the institution upon which the labors of a life time were expended become a great, a growing, institution. Perhaps this thought comforted him in his dying hour and helped to steal away the range of dissolution.
The state has lost one of its greatest benefactors, the University a man who has done more than any other to bring the school to its present high position and the educational world one of its greatest scholars. But the result of his labors is not a thing that will perish while the state has a place for a university or the world a place for science.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1908.
The proposition made by the St. Joe people who are going after the Thanksgiving football game ought to have a good result on the business side of University athletic affairs, whether the game goes to St. Joe or not. For years the association has been held up by the park managers at Kansas City and compelled to pay an exorbitant price for the privilege of playing the game there. The proposition of the St. Joe committee proves that a town can turn over the entire gate receipts of the game to the competing schools and still find the event a profitable thing. Last year's game was fairly profitable to the athletic management, and this year's game should do at least as well. And taking the game to the town that offers the fairest terms is a means of making money which is free from the objections that can be brought against the scheduling of too many games in a season and games with schools out of our own class, which in the past it has seemed necessary to do for financial reasons.
W. P. Hackney who made the campaign for the nomination for the legislature in Cowley county with the reduction of University appropriations as a paramount issue was beaten in the primaries by one of the largest majorities ever cast against in aspirant for legislative honors in the southern Kansas county, all of which goes to show that the University is popular with the people even in the sections of the state remote from the seat of the University.
The press of the state has had much to say,not of a laudatory nature, in regard to the speech Professor Blackmar made a few weeks ago and report him as saying that a man and wife who attempt to live on twenty-five dollars a week have degenerated. It is simply another case of where the scientific and erudite expression of a scholar is made to sound
ridiculous by the inability of the popular mind to give a proper meaning to things that are technical.
A Lawrence paper says that "Mayor Barker announces his intention of making a cleanup of the east bottoms, and already several of the more disreputable characters have been made to leave town." In this laudable enterprise the Mayor will find University sentiment just as solidly for him as it was against him last spring when he was driving to prevent a "cleanup" of the east bottoms.
Harry Kemp says he has joined the football squad for the purpose of writing some poetry. It may be that when Sir "Tub" Reed falls on the Bard his thoughts may descend from the empyrean heights to things around about him.
Hagerman Explains Mistake.
I take the liberty in this issue of the Kansan to make a statement relative to a misunderstanding which arose in my office last week. I am anxious that no organization or individuals may be done an injustice and that harmony, rather than discord may prevail. Therefore to no other end do I contribute this explanation.
Several days ago an old fraterity man called at Association headquarters to pay his respects to me and to join the Y. M. C. A. He was accompanied by a freshman who, in his turn, requested a membership. I filled out the card and handed it to him and in return received a five dollar bill which I was unable to change. I therefore

Look What We've Done for You, Young Man!
handed back to him his bill, and at that juncture the misunderstanding occurred. I expected of course that the member in question would later call and pay for his membership, but unfortunately my inability to make change was interpreted by him as a refusal upon my part to accept his fee, and his conclusions were that some previous arrangement existed whereby he was to be given his membership without charge. Accordingly an incomplete report of our transaction was spread abroad and the Kansan was misled by evidence which seemed in itself conclusive.

ALUMNI FOLKS BUILDING.
Have Several Thousand Dollars Already Toward Building.
Last Friday evening the board of directors of the Alumni Association of the University held a meeting to elect officers for the coming year, also to discuss plans by which funds can be raised for the erection of an Alumni building on or near the campus. The purpose of such a building is to have a place for the Alumni officers and printing plant.
Thru the efforts of Mr. Flint, several thousand dollars have been raised but it will take sometime to raise the funds so that a building can be begun. The rapid growth of the association in the last few years promises to hasten the work.
The officers of the association for the ensuing year are: chairman of the committee, Judge J. C. Ruppenthal; secretary, Leon N. Flint; treasurer, Geo. O. Foster.
Football Saturday.
Next Saturday the K. U.- Emporia football game opens the local season for 1908. The Normalites were taken on for a practice game but the contest is likely to be a fairly difficult one for the Jayhawkers.
The Normal team has been training since the first week in September and may show unexpected strength. On the other hand Kansas did not go into scrimmage work until last Saturday, and with only a week for preparation can not show their real strength.
Republican Club Elects.
TO DECIDE TOMORROW.
At the first meeting of the K. U. Republican Club which was held today in Green Hall the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: E. E. Brookens, president; John Riling, vice-president; J. L. Emerick, secretary; S. L. Lashbrook, treasurer. A committee was appointed by the president for the purpose of conferring with the down town Republican organizations.
Athletic Board Will Decide Location of Thanksgiving Game.
Tomorrow the athletic board meets to decide finally where the Thanksgiving game is to be played as far as Kansas is concerned. Kansas City and St. Joseph have each submitted propositions. St. Joe has made the best terms, but the student body wants the game in Kansas City, and it undoubtedly will take place there. Kansas City is the logical place for the game. It is close to Lawrence and Columbia and it will draw a larger crowd of the alumni of the two schools than would St. Joe.

K. U. Boys Make Important Investigations This Summer.
Under the direction of Professor Haworth, head of the Geology department, Wallace Pratt, Frank Brock and Harvey Elledge have been conducting a series of experiments this summer as to the cause of mine explosions. The state has spent $2,500 on the work.
Three classes of explosion have been investigated and valuable results obtained. The complete data will be published next spring as the latest and most original work on cause of mine explosions.

Nearly every department is crowded for rooms and every available space is used for class work nearly every hour in the day. Professors, as well as students, run hither and thither endeavoring to find an empty room large enough to conduct a class.

KANSAS 11;
NORMALS 0
THE FIRST GAME WAS A TAME AFFAIR.
In a Drizzling Rain Jayhawkers Scored Two Touchdowns on Balls Fumbled by Normals.
In a driving rain storm that almost blinded the players at times, the Jayhawkers defeated the light Normal team this afternoon in the opening game of the 1908 season. The score was 11 to 0.
The Normal men failed repeatedly to make gains by line bucks, and did best work punting. The ball was soaked and hard to handle. This made many fumbles. Kansas gained through the line, but played ragged ball at the beginning of the game.
FIRST HALF.
The Jayhawker line that began the first half of the contest was much the same as the line of last year. Reed and Carlson, old timers, were taking care of the two guard positions; Captain Crowell and Caldwell, last year's tackles, were at their old positions, and Pleasant, a "K" man, held down his old place at end. Speer was at center in the place of Milton, who is out of the game this year, and Houghton played the other end. The back field at the start of the game did not contain a single "K" man of last year. Waring, who made his "K" three years ago, and Bond were the halves, Steele was at quarter, and Tom Stephenson played full.
The Jayhawker line was like a stone wall on defense and the Normalites could scarcely gain an inch. On offense the team showed its lack of time for preparation. The men could not get together right and the play was pretty ragged.
Bond opened the game with a thirty yard kick-off for Kansas. Emporia soon lost the ball on downs, and after a series of scrimmages and a brilliant run for twenty yards by Houghton, Bond tried for a field goal. The ball went wild but Pleasant was close after the ball and fell on it for a touch-down. Bond kicked the goal. Neither side was able to score during the remainder of the half. The interest of the crowd was kept up, however, by great runs by Steele and Stephenson and the heady defensive work of the Normals. Several times when Kansas was in the shadow of their goal the Emporians rallied and drove off the Jayhawkers.

In the second half Fiske took Bond's place at half, Stanley

FOR DEMOCRACY
CHANCELLOR STRONG DEPRECATES SNOBBERY IN K. U.
Undesirable Citizens at the University.—Western Movement to Win.
Chancellor Strong gave his seventh annual address to an audience of more than 1700 students yesterday morning in Fraser Hall. He made an eloquent plea for a greater democracy at the University, urged the necessity of obedience to higher authority, and advised the students to hang on to their home ideas of religion. In terms of scorn he denounced the snob as a creature undesirable at the University of Kansas.
"One thing our civilization lacks," he said, "is obedience to discipline. Boys do not like to be told to do a thing, but their success in life depends on yielding to a higher authority that is necessary for common welfare. No better place than the University can be found to learn obedience to public rules.
"We must have democracy in this school. We are rich in Kansas and the change in wearing apparel in the last six years is very noticeable. We don't want any snobs here and if there are any they might as well get out. It is said that fraternities hinder democracy; then the fraternities must go. I do not believe it however. It is for the fraternities to see to it that it is not so.
"The most important thing in your school life here will be the social, moral and intellectual improvement you receive. When people mention the man who had the rare privilege of seeing all the students in this school during its past history, they do not speak of his intellectual attainments, great though they were. They speak of his goodness and the work he did for others."
In closing, Chancellor Strong urged the students to be loyal to the ideals of the school and to join the leaders of the western movement that must solve the great problems before the American people.
K. S. A. C. Student Killed.
John Coons, Jr., and Alde Immenschuh, K. S. A. C. students, were shot last Tuesday evening at Manhattan by M. A. Creviston. Coons was instantly killed and his friend seriously wounded. The boys had struck the door of Creviston's house. This was the only provocation for the murder. Creviston was placed in jail and while under arrest his house was burned to the ground.
CLASS POLITICS GETTING WARM
SOPHOMORES ELECT; JUNIORS AND SENIORS HAVE TICKETS
There Will Be a Contest in Both Upper Classes—Freshmen Still Sleeping.
Class politics has once again taken the leading place in University activities and the lamblike affairs of last year are no more. The dove of peace has flitted away from the quiet halls of Fraser and the dread war is on. The sophomore election passed off in hurried stillness, but the seniors and juniors are preparing for a hard fought campaign. Pleasant, the most popular man yet secured, heads one senior ticket as president. Dietrich and Fairchilds are the contestants for the coveted Junior class presidency. Fraternities and Barbs alike are lining up their forces for the struggle next week.
SENIORS' TICKET FRAMED UP.
A number of the members of the Senior class, composing what is known as the Beta-Barb faction, met in caucus last night and placed in nomination a ticket. Otto Apollo was permanent chairman of the meeting which was called to order by Ernest Skofstad. The ticket nominated is called the Senior Class Ticket and is:
President, Carl Pleasant; Vice-president, Guy Mosher; Treasurer, Ed Emmett; Secretary, Gertrude Copley; Editor of the Annual, August Krehbiel; Manager of the Annual, Bert Evans; Manager of the Senior play, Tom Veatch; Chairman play committee, Paul Faragher. It is said there will be another Senior ticket in the field.
TWO JUNIOR TICKETS
Representatives of the Junior class met in caucus this week and nominated a ticket called "The Straight Barb Ticket." The nominees are: president, F. P. Fairchilds; vice president, Ralph Harmon; secretary, Keene Fones; treasurer, Edward C. Banker.
Another faction of the class met and nominated the following ticket also designated "Straight Barb." The ticket is: president, Roy Dietrich; vice president, Maurice Roberts; secretary, Martha Stough; treasurer, William Caldwell. Both tickets are supported by different fraternities.
A SOPHOMORE COUP D'ETAT
Last Tuesday night the sophomore class, or part of it, held a caucus and on Wednesday noon a meeting was called and an election held, which resulted in the choice of Clinton Kanaga for president and Ralph Cole for vice president. There was

COOPER TALKS
TELLS OF NATIONAL Y. M. C.
A. CONVENTION.
K. U. Will Be Well Represented in the Great Gathering at Columbus, Ohio.
Clayton S. Cooper, international Y.M.C.A. secretary was the man of the hour at the Bible study rally in Myers Hall Friday evening. Mr. Cooper is one of the leaders in the world work of the Y.M.C.A.In his talk he told of the Bible study classes in other schools. In Yale 900 are studying the Bible; at West Point, 400; at the University of Toronto 160 leaders are studying under faculty teachers and lead a "squad"of 1200 men. Mr. Cooper told the boys about the International Y.M.C.A. Convention which meets at Columbus, Ohio, October 22. This will be the greatest affair of its kind ever pulled off in America. Over 300 university presidents will attend.
Chancellor Strong and two members of the faculty, Hagerman, Spotts and Herman will represent Kansas.
Next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday the University Bible study committee will make a canvass of the school.
A. ST. LEGER MOSSE BACK.
Veteran Coach Is Already Busy With Gridiron Heroes.
Arthur St. Leger Mosse, whose eagle eye solved the play by which Nebraska hoped to beat Kansas year before last and who helped to take the candy away from the Cornhusker infants, came to town this week and at once got busy on McCook Field.
Registration Still Increasing.
The total registration up to date including the Medical department at Kansas City and the summer school has reached 2188. Figures show that the attendance from the cities has fallen off, but the students from the country and small towns have come the same as before. The athletic fund has received fairly good support, but not what it should considering the cheapness of the ticket and the quantity of entertainment offered by the management. Today noon 1100 athletic tickets had been sold.
Only 325 hospital association memberships have been sold. This is one of the best things for the students that has ever been offered, and should receive better support.
Junior Election Monday.
The Junior class will meet Monday noon in the chapel to hold election for officers of the year.

When the Chancellor expressed the hope in his talk yesterday morning that chapel attendance might be better this year than last he touched upon a matter of especial importance. The opinion exists in the student body that the special chapel exercises are something of a nature of a lottery. They have listened to speeches or panegyrics that in their judgment did not attain to the merit or dignity that a chapel utterance should have. There has been, in the past, and this year too, entertainment that has almost smacked of vaudeville, not unlike what might be enjoyed on the payment of a nickel or a dime down town. The plan of the chapel committee to provide features of entertainment after the religious part of the chapel service has been shown by the unusual attendance on Tuesdays and Fridays to be a wise one, and perhaps the attendance might be still larger if the students felt that the entertainment would always be on a par with the tastes and worthy of the intelligence of a University audience.
The patrons of the great game of football got the first true line on the ability of the Jayhawker machine this afternoon. A team may show up well or it may show up poor on paper, but only a contest can show its true merit. There is no doubt that the candidates for the team are more numerous and huskier than ever before. But as Coach Kennedy has said, the very number of good candidates may ruin the team's chances. Team work is the essential part of the gridiron game, and it is a harder proposition to get thirty men to learn to work together than to develop team work in only eleven good men. With coaches like Kennedy and Mosse, the team work will be well looked after so far as the coaching end of the game is concerned.
No better indication of the growth of the University can
be found than in the fact that the chapel, which a few years ago was commodious enough to hold the student body, was not sufficiently large at the Friday morning exercises to comfortably seat over two-thirds of those who sought admission. All the standing room was taken up and in addition hundreds did not attend because they could not get in the doors. The signs are that the time has come when the University will have to begin to use its larger auditorium.
The echoes of the commotion caused last spring by the edition of the Lawrence Journal have already reverberated from the shores of Europe. The London Public Opinion a few weeks ago contained a half page article giving a favorable account of the results of the story. During the summer two or three magazine articles appeared in New York publications. If Brady would give his paper over to the students for a week it would be better known than Ed Howe's paper.
The position of auditor or sergeant-at-arms of a class seems a mighty thankless one, but still there is that ever present chance that the incumbent may make a fraternity on the strength of it.
Notice to class politicians: A certain shoemaker of Lawrence has just received a consignment of gum shoes for the fall trade.
The political bee has been buzzing. Have you been stung yet?
Good evening. Have you been to the caucus?
In the Pharmacy School.
Dean Sayre of the Pharmacy school attended the meeting of the State Board of Health in Topeka Saturday. Arrangements were made for the testing of all drugs in the chemistry laboratory this winter. Professor Ziesle will devote his time to this work, which will be in connection with the agricultural department at Washington.
The enrollment in the Pharmacy school has reached ninety-two, the largest number that have ever enrolled at this time of the year. This is mainly due to the raising of the standard of the school in the last few years. The four year course has eight members this year. This is a large number when it is known that only three have been graduated from this course. Twelve are enrolled in the three year course.
Prof. L. D. Havenhill has
returned to take up his work in the Pharmacy school, having spent his leave of absence doing work for the United States Agricultural Department at Washington, D. C.
Burke Society Elects.
Members of the Burke Literary society met Friday evening and elected the following officers for the work of this school year; T. T. Shannon, president; H. F. Gorsuch, vice president; L. W. Breyfogle, secretary; G. D. Bischoff, treasurer; A. F. Livers, sergeant at arms; members of debating council, O. C. Hull and A. F. Livers.
Hunter on Inspection Trip.
Prof. S. J. Hunter of the entomology department of the University went to Princeton, Franklin county, Friday, to inspect the nursery stock grown in that vicinity and to see if any of the trees is infected with disease.As a member of the State entomological commission Professor Hunter has been making similar inspections at other points in the State during the summer.

George E. Putnam, 07, snaed from New York Monday, September 20, for England to begin work at Oxford University as the second Kansas man to secure the three years Cecil Rhodes scholarship. During the past school year Putnam has been attending Yale where he was granted a master's degree last June. He expects to follow out his political science course in Christ's Church college at Oxford. Besides being an excellent student during his two years at the University of Kansas, Putnam was a famous athlete. Earl W. Murray, assistant professor of Latin, was the first Rhodes scholar from Kansas University.
No Special Rates.
Owing to the two cent rate laws there will be no special rates to Lincoln for the N. U.-K. U. football game. In speaking of the affair Manager Lansdon said, "I have been in correspondence with the different railroads that run out of Lawrence and up to the present time I have been unsuccessful in obtaining any rates whatever."

CLASS POLITICS WARMING UP
(Continued from page 1)
an attendance of thirty-five or forty at the meeting.
The successful nominees may have been surprised at the turn affairs had taken, but quickly regaining their composure modestly accepted the honors which had been thrust upon them. They deprecate the suspicion, heard in some quarters, that there was undue precipitancy in the proceedings, and that the time elapsing between the caucus and the election was so short that some members of the class were not informed of the situation in politics. Very properly they point out that instead of a long and possibly acrimonous campaign which might distract the members of the class from their studies, the sophomores may now proceed with their university work without any hindrances.
Mr. Kanaga is business manager of the Kansan, and Mr. Cole is circulator. Both were somewhat noted as politicians, even before the coup d'etat of Wednesday. Both men are members of the Y.M.C.A. and have had an excellent reputation for honesty and square dealing.
CONTRACT SIGNED.
Kansas Clty Will Have Game for Next Five Years.
At a meeting of the athletic association yesterday the members voted unanimously to accept the offer of George Tebeau of Kansas City, for the use of Association Park for the annual Thanksgiving game. Seventeen and one-half per cent will be given to Mr. Tebeau for the use of the park. The contract holds good for five years. A.D. Flintom has been chosen as auditor for the year of 1908. He will have charge of the entire receipts.

HAD ONE SQUARE MEAL.
Would-Be Newspaper Men Lived High While It Lasted.
Whatever vicissitudes the future may hold for them, the Kansan staff will always remember with joy one good dinner which they got just for being pencil pushers. Last Sunday, Manager Hornaday of the Fairfax invited the staff down to dinner and entertained them in royal fashion.
Mr. Hornaday, having been a newspaper man himself, knows what the members of the craft stand most in need of, so he detailed a squad of waiters to supply the gallant trenchmen at the Kansan table. It was a course dinner, a highly educational feature, for newspaper men are accustomed to but one course. It is safe to say that no Kansan man will ever again fill up on soup just because that is the only thing in sight at the time, and then sit unable to raise a hand in self defense while the waiters bring on cold turkey, lake trout, little-neck clams, pie, cake, ice-cream, etc. Harry Kemp and others were introduced to the finger bowl during the meal. Along toward the middle of the afternoon the last course had been exhausted and the staff took its homeward way with horizons greatly widened.
Resign from Board.
Professor A. T. Walker and Professor J. N. Van der Vries have sent in their resignations as members of the athletic board. They gave as a reason that they have too much work to do to devote the necessary time to the work in athletics. Dr. Van der Vries has been secretary of the athletic association four years, and both men are the oldest members of the board except Dean Green. Their successors have not been appointed.
The young people of the Christian church entertained a large number of new students in Myers Hall Friday evening. A student reception was also held in the parlors of the Lutheran church on the same evening.

VOLUME V.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SEPTEMBER 29,1908.
CATHOLICS NEXT
COACH QUIGLEY WILL LINE UP HUSKIES SATURDAY.
St. Mary's Takes the Place or Ottawa University Team— in Second Game.
The line up of the team for the season has of course not been decided on. There are so many good candidates out that the sifting down process that started with the first practice will probably not end until the Washburn game on November the seventh. Before that date five games are to be played and every eligible man will be given a thorough tryout.
The game last Saturday developed the fact that the Kansas line is going to be strong this year. There is plenty of beef and strength in the line and as soon as Kennedy and Mosse, some clever coaches, get the linemen to work together the forward part of the Jayhawker team will do its share in earning victories.
Next Saturday the Jayhawkers will play their second game of the season when they tangle with the St. Marys eleven on McCook. Originally Ottawa University was booked for this date but the Baptists were slow getting into shape and canceled the date. St. Marys has a fast, light team that is most adept at the open game. Coach Kennedy expects to make forward passing and onside kicking the feature of the Kansas play this season, and the Catholics were booked for next Saturday to give our warriors a little practice and training in the new game.
All the men who tried out in the back field Saturday showed up well. Steele, Stephenson, Waring, Fiske, Bond, and Myers were up to the standard of the back field of past years. Besides these there are several other prominent candidates chief among whom is Tom Johnson, who ought to land a berth some place among the backs. Cecil Newbold, a prominent track man has begun trying out for quarter-back.
Notice.
NUMBER 5
There will be a tryout for the election of three new members of the Kansan board, commencing with the next issue of the paper. It will last two weeks.

TYPHOID FEVER APPEARS.
Two Cases on Oread Avenue- Precautions Being Taken.
Two cases of typhoid fever the first sickness in the University this year, were reported this morning by Drs. E. Smith and E. J. Blair. Willis Masemore, a junior law, who rooms at 16 West Adams, has been sick for the past few days. Last evening upon calling in Dr. E. J. Blair, he was notified that he had every symptom of the disease. In speaking of the affair over the phone, Dr. Blair stated that he would not say positively that it was typhoid fever without conducting a microscopic examination, but that it presented every symptom of typhoid.
The second case is that of Elmer W. Columbia, who rooms at 1228 Oread avenue. Mr. Columbia has been confined to his room since last Saturday, and upon calling in Dr. E. Smith, was told that he had typhoid. Dr. Smith will not state emphatically that such is the case but that it presented every symptom. Neither of the boys were members of the Hospital Association, and left for their homes this morning.
How Would You Like This?
The tactics, "coup d'etat," used by the sophomore class on last Wednesday so successfully proved a miserable failure today noon when the Junior law class bolted the ticket that was nominated by the ring and elected Erle Wilson as president over Charles Rummell, the nominee, by a majority of thirty-two votes when there were only forty votes cast. The rest of the ticket is as follows: vice president, Watson Campbell; secretary, Miss Kathleen Calloway, and Lewis Sawyer for treasurer. The last three named had no opposition.
Wanted Some Cheap Bread.
H. A. Kohman, '08, returned Saturday from Cincinnati. He has been traveling in the East since August 16 in the interest of the Breadmakers' Association, looking at bakeries in Kansas City, Washington, Pittsburg, Toronto, Can., Chicago and Cincinnati. Mr. Kohman has a fellowship at here this year and will try to find some cheaper or better method of making bread.
The freshman class will hold an open caucus, Wednesday evening at 7:30 in room 5 Fraser Hall. This is to prevent "railroading" tactics attempted by two tickets now in the field.
Freshmen Caucus.
SENIORS ELECT
DECIDED VICTORY FOR FIRST TICKET IN FIELD.
Evans and Poindexter for Manager of Annual Had Closest Race. Majorites From 15 to 89.
With an attendance of nearly two hundred the Senior class in chapel today noon elected what was known as "The Senior Class Ticket" by majorities ranging from 15 to 92. In some ways it was a landslide. It was hard for the onlooker to tell where the lines were drawn. There were Fraternity men on both tickets but the dose of fraternity candidates on the "Representative Ticket" appears to have been too heavy for the class to swallow. Marlin Poindexter, a Phi Delt, however was beaten by only fifteen votes but this was perhaps due to the fact that he received most of the fraternity vote. After a squabble of several minutes the three year Law men were allowed to vote.
The class officers chosen with the majorities they received is: President, Carl Pleasant, no opposition; Vice-President, Guy Mosher, defeated Pat Crowell by majority of 45; Treasurer, Ed Emmett, defeated Carl Ball by a majority of 92; Editor of the Annual, August Krehbiel, defeated Fred Lyons by a majority of 75; Manager of the Annual, Bert Evans, defeated Marlin Poindexter by a majority of 15; Chairman of the Play Committee, Paul Faragher, defeated Jessie Baldridge by a majority of 89. Tom Veach was elected without opposition as Manager of the Senior Play. Gertrude Copley had no opposition for Secretary of the Class.
Barbs Are Scarce.
The Freshmen met in Snow Hall this morning but immediately adjourned to prevent being grafted by the "frats." The meeting had been called for the purpose of electing some class officers. There were two tickets in the field. One of them had been nominated at a caucus at the Y. M.C.A. house the night before. It was supposed to be a "Barb" meeting but when this morning's sun arose it was discovered that the ticket nominated was a "frat" ticket. Then another ticket was nominated. Twenty minutes later it was discovered that this too was composed of fraternity men. Then in despair the good honest barbs got out some posters an nouncing that it was all a "graft," and adjourned until to morrow evening when another caucus will be held with the hopes of getting a straight "Barb" ticket.
Deitrich the Issue.
A landslide of votes struck Roy Deitrick yesterday in the Junior election and he was defeated by a new man in class affairs,"Fritz" Fairchilds. The lines in the election appear to have been drawn simply on the question of Deitrich himself. In the class last year he had everything in his hands and became so prominent by his able management of the class that the class politicians thought it time to shelve him. He was disposed of by a vote of 121 to 85. The other officers elected were: Vice-president, Ralph Harmon; secretary, Keene Fones; treasurer, Ed Banker.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
At the University of Nebraska every candidate for a class office is required by the University rules to announce himself a stated time in advance of the election. The date of the election is known a considerable time in advance, and by this means every member of the class has a chance to take part in the election and to know just what he is doing. Here at the University of Kansas the "old school" of politics still flourishes, with packed caucuses, "dark horses," and hurried elections, and the trail of the gum shoe is over it all. Whether this is the best political training that can be given men who are expected after they leave the University to play the game of politics under the most enlightened primary and election laws of any state in the country may well be doubted.
Up to the present time fewer than four hundred students have taken out membership in the University Hospital Association. The executive committee has decided that it will be impossible to carry out the plans of the association with a membership of less than 700, and unless 350 students join between now and the middle of October, the money of those who are now members will be refunded and the association will be given up for this year. The advantages of the association are unquestioned and the rate is so low that every student ought to take advantage of this means of insuring himself against financial loss in case of sickness.
Some recent events in class politics on the hill recall the remark of Walt Mason of the Emporia Gazette that the first Ananias club was organized by the psalmist David, who said in his haste that all men are liars. The situation is unchanged today, Mr. Mason says, except that now statesmen after due deliberation assert what David said in his haste. It is too much to say that all students are liars, but if the game laws
of the State were revised to include an open season for all members of the Ananias club, it is feared there would be an awful thinning out of class politicians.
At the University of Missouri an interesting experiment is being carried on in connection with the new school of journalism there. The "laboratory" of the school is the University Missourian, a six column daily paper. In addition to covering the University news field, the paper has a telegraphic news service, to give the students training in editing telegraph. Walter Williams, the head of the school of journalism, is a member of the Board of Curators, and has evidently been able to secure all the financial backing he has needed for the new undertaking.
One of the freshman class tickets, which had its mush room growth in a single night and burst upon the gaze of an astonished world this morning consisted of three men from Kansas City, Missouri, and one girl from Paola, Kansas. Can this be the appearance, in the third generation, of a habit which was much in evidence in the territorial elections of Kansas?

Football practice at Iowa opened with a record breaking bunch at work. Sixty-five men were on hand and coaches Catlin and Griffith put them through unusually stiff practice for an opening day with nearly two hours of running signals, punting, and studying new plays.
The Purdue Exponent opens its first issue with an arraignment of the "tightness" of the entering student body. It appears that only twenty-five per cent have subscribed for the paper in contrast to fifty per cent last year. The freshmen are the worst offenders so far. In conclusion the Exponent announces that unless half of the student body subscribes, the Purdue daily will be a thing of the past.
A new publication is to fill a patent need in University circles at Syracuse this year. It will be called the "Syracusan" and will take the field as an illustrated monthly magazine.
Entomological Field Survey.
Prof. S. J. Hunter together with his assistants, W. S. Griesa, Victor Chesky, and Wm. Glenn, are complying their reports of the field survey which was carried on the past summer for the State entomology commission. The work was conducted in the southwestern part of the State. Their report will be finished by December. W. S. Griesa will leave tomorrow for southwest Kansas to complete the field survey for the State entomology commission. He will be absent several weeks and will complete the work as far as Englewood.
Coach Quigley is Quakling.
Coach Quigley of St. Marys, who umpired the football game Saturday, was a visitor at the Sigma Chi house over Sunday. He is not over enthusiastic over the prospects at the Catholic school for a gridiron team, as only three of last year's men are working out. A number of the old players left school to become priests.

CARLTON BALFOUR
THE GREAT BLIND MUSICIAN TOMORROW NIGHT.
Lawrence Music Lovers Wil Have Opportunity of Hearing a Great Pianist in F. A.A.Hall.
Carlton Balfour, the blind musician, who appears at Fraternal Aid Hall tomorrow evening, was born at Nickerson, Kansas, in 1885. At the age of three he became totally blind by accident.
Mr. Balfour's repertoire is large and includes the greatest compositions of the masters, among them Chopin, Bevignani, Liszt Rachmaninoff, D'Albert, Sarasate, Grunfeld, etc. Every number is perfectly played, being originally memorized from blind music or through reader.
The late Mr. McDowell, America's favorite composer gave a half day of his valuable time to Balfour and predicted for him a place among the world's greatest musicians. That Mr. Balfour has fulfilled these predictions is evident from the fact that Joseph Hoffman, Emilio Agramonte and many Musicians of international fame have not been slow to recognize his ability.
The Seramade, one of Balfour's own compositions, Agramonte pronounces "a masterpiece." (The Seramade is one of the Lawrence program numbers.)
To fully appreciate Balfour, one must hear him, for then comes a full realization of the fact that there is nothing freakish, nothing vaudevillian about Mr. Balfour, but on the contrary, he is finished musician, a most remarkable man, in fact, one of our most deserving and worthy Americans.
Everyone in the Kansas University should attend this concert. Aside from the value of the concert from a musical point of view, a full understanding of what Mr. Balfour has accomplished without eyes will prove an inspiration.
Many a person has heard him play and gone about his work more cheerfully and with more determination to do more and to accomplish more. The moral is plain.
Mr. Balfour will be assisted by Maud Russell-Waller, a European and American favorite.
Miss Maude Cooke will accompany Mrs. Waller.
Certainly the most meritorious concert deserves the support of everyone, especially when reserved seats may be had at fifty cents.
Squires for Photographs.
Brown's wife says that whenever she wants to find him she goes straight to McColloch's drug store, and there he is, in the post card corner, looking at pictures.
One nice feature in the buying of post cards at McColloch's drug store is, that you can always get plenty of stamps to mail them with.
