URGE NEW RULES IN BASKET-BALL
OFFICIALS SHOULD BE EN GAGED IN ADVANCE.
Otherwise Misinterpretation of Rules May Render Work of Coach Futile, Says Hamilton.
A change in the method of securing officials for the basket-ball games between the conference schools will be urged upon the conference at the meeting of the coaches and managers of the basketball teams of the Missouri valley next Thanksgiving. It is urged by Hamilton that the officials no longer be engaged by the manager of athletics of the individual schools shortly before the game is played, but rather that they be engaged by all the managers of the several schools acting together. These men will officiate at all the contests between the schools of the conference and they will attend the meeting of the coaches of the conference teams where they may clearly understand the attitude of each school on how the game should be played in the Missouri Valley.
This tentative change in the engagement of the officials for the basket-ball season was occasioned by the trouble experienced by some of the schools this year in attempting to play after the style that was agreed upon at a meeting of the coaches held last winter on December 10. They discoveren since that the referee put a different interpretation upon the rules of the game than that under which they had been coached.
"In this way the work of a coach for the entire season may easily be spoiled and be rendered futile," said Coach W. O. Hamilton in discussing the subject.
There is no chance of a misunderstanding among the coaches of the conference teams concerning the interpretations that were to be put on the rules. The game that was to be played in the Missouri Valley this year was not the hammer and tongs style of play in which the players watch the opponent and play the ball in which brute strength and not skill was to be the predominant factor, but rather the "no contact" style of play in which the men play ball and in which skill and dexterity make the best team.
NUMBER 61
In discussing the change that has taken place among the different schools in regard to the style of ball now played, Coach Hamilton said, "It has taken a long time for the University to inaugurate the better type of basket-ball in the conference and it has been only against the opposition of other members of the conference. When the game was first given over to the men as one of the intercollegiate sports it was changed from the three-court game as it was originally played by the girls, and several features were introduced by the rules committee to bring the contest up to the standard then thought necessary for an intercollegiate game. Consequently the contest was made into a rough fight where strength and not skill were the telling factors. This is the game as it is played by the Eastern schools today. However, the western men have started a movement back to the game as it was first played and Kansas has been largely instrumental in this reaction. I think that next year with officials who understand our ideas about the game we can have a faster and cleaner contest made of the sport."
FRESHMEN VS. VARSITY.
Captain Brown's Five Would Try Strength Next Week.
Loren Brown, captain of the Freshman basket-ball team, anounced today that a challenge had been issued to the varsity five for a series of three games to decide the championship of the school. The plan is said to have met with the approval of Coach Hamilton, and it is probable that the first game will be played next Monday evening with another game on Wednesday evening. In ease of a tie another game would be played on Friday evening.
The Freshman team this year has thus far defeated all of the class teams and the College team, and it is believed that a game for the championship honors of the school would prove extremely interesting as well as affording the coach an opportunity to get a line on new material for next year.
SOPHOMORE CHANGE DATE
Will Give Their Prom. Friday, May 5.
Owing to the fact that Dean Skilton has engaged the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra for April 5 and 7, the date of the Sophomore Prom has been changed from Friday, April 7 to Friday, May 5. This will change the plans of the different committees to some extent, but the farce committee will continue the work already begun.
The invitation committee will continue to sell the tickets and all students are urged to file their dates with any of the following Carl Krehbiel, Clyde Dodge, Gladys-Clark, Georgia Cotter, Leland Angevine, George Babb, Walter Moore, Harry Ketler, Beatrice Dalton, Ray Soper or Malcolm MaeNaughton.
TRIAL FLIGHT TOMORROW.
Aviator Evans plans to make a trial flight this afternoon in Wood land park. Tomorrow he will give his exhibition flight. Recently a pump in the machine froze and the following morning when Mr. Evans turned the machine by hand the aluminum gear surrounding the pump broke. However,the damage has now been repaired at the Fowler shops by Prof. Frank E. Ward. Tomorrow's admission charge will be fifty cents, which will be refunded if there is no flight.
Aviator Evans Will Give Exhibition at Woodland Park.
The final try-out for the track team that will contest with the Missouri University in the track meet at Convention hall at Kansas City, on March 10, will be held in the gymnasium on Saturday afternoon at 2:15 o'clock.
Final Try-out.
FLUNK LIST HAS BEEN COMPLETED
Vice Chancellor W. H. Carruth was in Topeka Tuesday on business.
TWICE AS MANY FAILURES AS LAST YEAR RECORDED.
Poorest Students in Freshmen Class—13 Per Cent of Students Enrolled Have Double Flunks.
The flunk list of the College for the fall term of 1910 that has just been completed by Registrar Geo, O. Foster, is larger this year than it has ever been in years past. Registrar Foster expressed the opinion that the total number, 496, of students that flunked in at least one subject last term in the College, is almost double the number that flunked last year. Moreover, this number is almost one third of the total enrollment of the College, which is 1,069. The number of double flunks or flunks in more than one-third of the hours carried in the College is 132, or 13 per cent of the total number of students enrolled. Of these 35 were women and 97 men. In the freshman class 50 men and 16 women flunked out of school. In the sophomore class 20 men and nine women failed in more than one-third of their work. This list also claimed 7 men and 5 women in the junior class, 5 men and 1 woman in the senior class, and 15 men and 5 women enrolled as special students.
In the School of Engineering there were 40 double flunks, which is 10 per cent of the number enrolled in that department.
The people who have double flunks recorded against them are forced to leave the school according to the ruling of the University. However, the most of these students, since they are members of the freshman class, will be reinstated by the Dean and consequently the number that were forced to go home will not be large as might at first appear.
TO CLASS ON TIME
Pneumatic Clocks Will Tell Hour in New Class Rooms.
Students of the present generation know well what it is to be detained in class after the period has closed, because not all the faculty watches are running just alike, and many of them have been the objects of instructorial sarcasm because they couldn't get to the next recitation on time. All this will be changed when classes meet in the new Administration building.
On the wall of every class room of the new building will be placed a pneumatic clock, governed by a central master clock. About twenty-five of the smaller clocks will be required for the wing now under construction. It will take close to 100 to fit out the complete building.
Charley Ise of Coffeyville, Kan. a graduate of the School of Low, was at the University yesterday.
Mrs. Sisson will entertain the Women's Student Government district of which she is a patroness, with a thimble party, Saturday afternoon, at 3:30 at her home at 1329 Ohio street. Agner Crego is the district chairman.
DEBATERS CHOSEN
April 12 It the Date Set for the Sooners.
Prof. G. A. Gesell announced this morning that April 12 will be the date of the Oklahoma debate and that Milton Minor, E. L. Griffin and W. M. Hughes are the men who will represent Kansas. The subject to be discussed is: "Resolved that the short ballot should be adopted in state, county and municipal elections." Kansas, according to the ruling of the newly formed Triangle League, will support the affirmative. This league includes as its members Kansas Oklahoma, and Colorado. One of the rulings of this organization is that all three of the schools shall debate the same question and that the home team shall always support the affirmative. This year the University will have only the Oklahoma debate at home.
E. L. Griffin is the most experienced man on the team. He debated against Oklahoma last year. W. M. Hughes has never before represented Kansas in a debate, but has had training in the University debating clubs. The third man, Milton Minor, is a sophomore and has had experience only in high school debating.
ENGINEERS WANT CHAPEL.
Would Meet in Marvin Hall Four Times a Week.
Students of the School of Engineering are agitating for an engineers' chapel in the assembly room of Marvin hall.
Those who favor a chapel service in the engineering building, say that engineers have no opportunity to come in contact with one another, except in classes. If chapel were held in Marvin hall four hours a week,they believe,engineers would come to know each other better and the School of Engineering would be placed on a stronger social basis.
Junior Class Notice.
Engineering students at present can attend chapel only on Fridays, because of the distance between their building and Fraser hall.
There will be a meeting of the junior class tomorrow noon in chapel in order to gain an expression of the wishes of the class in regard to the recent faculty ruling requesting that the Junior Prom be discontinued after 3 o'clock a. m.
Mathematics Club Met.
The Mathematics club met Wednesday evening at the home of Prof. C. H. Ashton, 1200 Ohio street. Prof. J. W. Young read a paper on "The Real Representation of Complex Quantities."
Mr. J. V. Humphrey, '85, and his wife, Mrs. Jeannette Oliver Humphrey, '87, of Junction City, are spending a few days at the University with their son, A. S. Humphrey, a junior in the College.
Dean C. H. Johnston has returned from Mobile, Ala., where he attended the annual session of the Society of College Teachers of Education, and the department of Superintendents of the National Education association.
JOINT COMMITTEE MEETS TONIGHT
COMPROMISE WILL PROB ABLY BE REACHED.
Houses Passes Bill As It Comes From Ways and Means—Senate Includes Hospital.
Yesterday afternoon at three o'clock the House passed the University appropriation bill as recommended by the ways and means committee without any amendments. This provides as follows:
Word was received from Topeka this afternoon that the consideration of the University budget of the senate and of the house would be held this evening by a conference committee of both houses. The only thing that can prevent a meeting of the committees of the two houses is that routine business of legislation may demand their presence on the floor.
General maintenance for 1912— $413,820.
General maintenance for 1913
$428,350.
Each year for general maintenance of the hospital at Rosedale — $12,000.
Each year for upkeep and repairs of University buildings— $40,000.
Each year, geological survey,
University extension, etc—$11,000
Excavation and work on next wing of the Administration building—$42,500.
Clay working laboratories—
†7,500.
Chancellor's contingent fund— $500.
This makes a total of $484,920 for the first year and $534,450 for the second year. This brings the total for the biennium, together with the land tax and the fees that were reappropriated, to $1,053,370. This bill provided that all matriculation and incidental fees shall be turned over to the state treasurer. Other fees may be used by the University authorities.
It is reported that the senate took a vote on the appropriation bill yesterday and that they included $50,000 for the building of a hospital at Rosedale.
HEIL TO LEAVE SCHOOL.
Star Quarterback to Engage in the Insurance Business at Topeka.
Roy Heil, star quarter-back of last season's football team, with, drew from the University yester- day and will leave next week for Topeka, where he will enter the insurance business. There is only a possibility that he will re- return for football next fall. He said today: "My return to the University depends upon how well I get along in the insurance busi-ness."
With Heil out of the game, the chances for a winning football team for 1911 will be greatly lessened. Unless he returns, next year's coach will have to develop an entirely new man for the quarterback position .
At the girls' district meeting held last Tuesday evening at 1011 Indiana street, Miss Alberta Corbin gave an interesting talk on student life in Germany and America.

With this issue of the University Kansan, the new editorial board makes its bow to the public. The Kansan is essentially a student production and as such should represent and reflect student sentiment. We believe that in the eight years of its existence it has proven to be an unprejudiced chronicler of University activities and it is the desire and the ambition of the present staff to maintain this same standard during its tenure of office.
We realize that a student publication is open to criticism peculiar to itself and that the attitude of The Kansan toward certain delicate situations that may arise, may lose the good will of certain members of the student body. It is the intention of the new board to continue a policy of fairness to all and an endeavor will be made to give proper publicity to anything that is germane to University life.
In beginning our work we can only ask for the co-operation of our readers and we hope that sufficient interest will be manifested by the student body to justify a healthy column of "kicks' and suggestions relative to University affairs.
With a detailed report of the carrying on of poker games at this University being printed broadcast over the state, and a late rumor that certain members of the engineering school are to go the Marathon route in a beer-drinking contest, there is no wonder that various people who are not cognizant of the real state of affairs imagine that University life is one continuous round of

debaucheries and orgies.
But when we are informed that in certain instances where a quiet little game of "penny ante" may have been played, the entire amount won for the evening would not be enough to purchase a coco-cola apiece for the contestants, and that the challengers in the beer-drinking contest would probably drop in a faint if the amber beverage were produced and the contest started, we can see no great cause for alarm as to the morals of University students.
But the fact still remains that that all people are not "next" and that these little cases of "just for fun" are apt to prove stumbling blocks at some future date.
An Era of Retrenchment.
Poker disclosures in Lawrence indicate that some of the students have had to sell their French touring cars and discharge their valets.—Kansas City Star.

MECHANICALS WILL DRINK THE BEER
ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE OF MINERS FOR A CONTEST.
Several Other Bouts Will Be Staged—May Have Debate and Concert.
If the engineers put on all the stunts that thus far they have planned, Engineer's Day will be a continuous round of pleasure that will make the four ring circus take to the woods with shame. Several days ago the Miners agreed to issue a challenge to the other departments of the engineering school in which they proclaimed their ability to finish first in a Marathon drinking contest. As soon as this challenge was read by the Mechanicals they felt that there was an encroachment upon their inalienable rights by the Miners and that their standing in engineering circles was in jeopardy. Today the invitation to a friendly encounter in the matter of consuming a quantity of beer was readily accepted by the Mechanicals with the one provision that the Aunt Jane variety be barred, the students of steam and pressure believing that if the brand be used such as has in years past been alleged to be dispensed by a certain denizen of the East Bottoms, an undue advantage will be given to the Miners who are supposed to be, in several instances, insured to this favorite beverage.
In addition to this the Mechanics also accepted several of the other challenges and it is now up to the Miners to get ready for a tug of war in which the weights of the challengers must be exactly the same as that of the acceptors, else, a la Shylock, the Mechanicals will be declared the winners. The fistic combat, the bid to a three round fray, was accepted, with the stipulation that a side bet of fifty dollars be placed with Dean Marvin.
Besides accepting invitations to contests, the Mechanics have issued a few "at homes" themselves. They have declared that they have within their ranks forensic artists who are without a peer in the school and they agree that they will defend against all comers the following question: "Resolved, That the thermal modification of Carnot's cycle involves an electrodynamic loss." The melodious carroling of the various members as they spent long hours over a draughting table has led them to believe that in the terpsichorean art they are unexcelled, and accordingly they agree to vanquish all contestants in a vocal concert, eve advocated by the followers of ryone eligible. Another thing Prof. Walker is a water fight, in which the Women's Student Council shall be the referee.
At the present time there are meetings held each day at chapel hour, at which time all challenges are considered and new plans are broached.

Prof. U. G. Mitehell has contributed a chapter on "The Growth of Algebraic Symbolism," to a forthcoming book by Prof. J.W. Young on "Fundamental Concepts of Algebra and Geometry."

NEW PLAN FOR STUDY.
'Group System.' Will Be Given a Trial by Y. M.
The Bible study committee of the University Y. M. C. A . has set in operation a new method of student study of the life of Christ. The new plan which is known as the "group system," includes a "normal class," composed of eight men who conduct Bible classes at various students' houses every Sunday morning. Bosworth's "Life of Christ" is the text book used, and will be covered in ten lessons, extending from the twenty-sixth of February to the first Sunday in May.
The "normal class," which in composed of William Caldwell, Donald Martindell, Lambert Eidson (chairman), Verne Long, Roy Stockwell, H. C. Herman, John Shea and Henry Broderson, meets once a week to discuss plans and places for holding the following week's meetings.
This system of bible study is not original at the University of Kansas, but has been tried and found successful by many of the large Eastern Universities. It was highly recommended at the recent Y. M. C. A. conference at Pittsburg, Kan., as being the best possible plan available for student Bible study.
BEVERAGES ANALYZED.
Pop Manufacturers Turn to University for Aid.
A successful investigation concerning the cause and remedy for the precipitation found in soda pop in hot weather has just been completed in the water analysis laboratory of the University. Soda pop as manufactured at present can not be kept over 15 to 20 days in hot weather without showing a precipitation which entirely spoils it for commercial purposes.
The cause of the trouble is lime and magnesium salts, which are found in the water used in the manufacture. A chemical process has been perfected in the water analysis laboratory by which the water may be softened. This process will neutralize the chemical action of the lime and magnesium salts and will do away with the turbidity in the manufactured product.
The waters of twelve factories have been tested.
According to George Russell, manager of the Jayhawker,March 8 is the last day on which senior pictures will be received. It is the intention of the management to commence the arrangement of the pictures on that day in alphabetical order and in order to do so it is necessary that all pictures shall be in by that time.
Senior Pictures Must Be In.
Work on the annual is progressing nicely and already sixty pen and ink sketches have been sent to Kansas City to be reproduced in zinc etchings. All of the jokes will be illustrated and the book will be replete with clever cartoons and take-offs on "hill" doings.
A social meeting of the German Verein was held Monday afternoon at the home of Miss Esther Wilson, 1135 Ohio street. The entertainment took the form of a program conversation with topic subjects arranged in advance, to be discussed between teachers and student. Light refreshments were served and German songs were sung.

LEAVES FOR PITTSBURG.
Industrial Fellow Receives Instructions to Come at Once.
Henry Kohman, of Dillon, a graduate student, left Tuesday for Pittsburg, Pa., where he will take up work on the bread-making fellowship which was secured for him by Prof. R. K. Duncan, last fall at the Pittsburg University. Mr. Kohman was not supposed to leave for Pittsburg until April, but received a hurry-up call to come and start work at once. Kohman formerly held the Master Bawers fellowship at the University of Kansas, and since the expiration of that fellowship last summer, has being doing work toward a Ph.D. degree.
His new fellowship in the East will carry a salary of $2,500 a year for two years, and will require two assistants. The work will be a continuation of the research in break-making, which he has been doing for the past two years. An additional bonus of $10,000 goes with the fellowship if any processes are discovered which shall be of commercial value to the firm.

Three Hours of Vaudeville Entertained the Crowd—Professors and Town Men Attend.
Two hundred and fifty fraternity men attended the third annual Pan-Hellenic smoker, which was held last night in Fraternal Aid hall. This entertainment is given by the Pan-Hellenic association of the University, whose membership is made up of the eight national fraternities.
The smoker was successful, and the various stunts produced by the amateurs were worthy of professionals.Beta Theta Pi appeared as a curtain opener with a magnificent pantomime, in which a soap-box boat braved the mountainous waves of a Scotch lake, and was finally upset and all its occupants drowned. Scarecely had the tears dried away, when "Rajah" Hendrickson took the stage as a representative of Alpha Tan, and produced rabbits and flowers from mere nothings. The Bible in Slang and set to music was Tom DeForest's offering. It was received with appreciation.
Then came the wonderful celloist in the Phi Gamma Delta "Im perial orchestra," followed by Sigma Chi, who presented their recent hold-up, but instead of a "real gun," swords were used and the robbers finished their sketch with some piano playing. George Bowles and his affinity, Stevens, did a realistic vampire dance, and Charles Younggreen, in a personally conducted tragedy, made up Phi Psi's contribution.
Probably the strongest man in the United States, if not in the world was produced by Phi Delt, for Ed Rhodes held Russell Clark above his head first with one hand and then on a piece of paper. Then he took the paper away, and such was the extent of his strength that Clark was left hanging in mid-air. Real life was pictured by Sigma Alpha Epsilon, who presented a "Sorority Pan-Hellenie" with life-like effect.
The last number on the program was Sigma Nu, who put on a full minstrel show. Certain delicate local hits were made and some harmonious singing was given by Ferguson, Alcorn, Alexander and the entire company. The curtain fell on the last act—and an empty house, for everybody went down stairs to feed.
Guild Meeting Saturday.
The Westminster Students' Guild will meet Saturday evening at Westminster hall. Edward Weidlein of the department of chemistry, will tell of his trip to Newfoundland last summer and will illustrate it with reflect-oscope views which he obtained while there. There will also be music and refreshments. All Presbyterian students are invited. The guild was organized in January and from this time on will meet 'aë yo ÿuññæåæ Åpɪnɪŋɪŋ asəy aqery month.
The Chi Omegas will give a tea for girls of the University at their chapter house on Friday afternoon from 4:30 to 6 o'clock.

VICTORY AND DEFEAT.
Posts in Center of Court Incon venience Players.
The College basket-ball team won its first game of the trip in the contest with Fairmount College at Wichita Monday night by the score of 29 to 23. The line-up of the Wichita team was changed considerably from that which they used when they played here, and the contest was even throughout. Beamer and Nesbitt starred for the department men and Haymaker and Plank did the best work for their opponents. Haymaker led the game in scoring, with six goals from the field, and Beamer of the local squad was second with four baskets to his credit.
The game with Friends University on Tuesday night resulted in the third defeat of the College team. The score was 33 to 19 The men attribute their defeat in this contest to the fact that four posts in the center of the court support the roof of the building, and since they were not used to playing around such supports, they were placed at a great disadvantage.
George S. Allen of Topeka, a former student of the University, now a practicing attorney in Topeka, visited the University Tuesday.
ALL-STAR TEAM.
Hamilton's Choice of All-Valley Basket-Ball Five.
Coach W. O. Hamilton has announced his choice of an all-star Missouri Valley basket-ball team. The five includes Dousman and Larson, guards; Heizer, center, and Long, left forward, from Kansas, and Gibson of Nebraska, right forward. The Kansas guards were chosen for their reliability and clean playing, Long for his exceptional free throwing, and Heizer because he held his opponent in every game of the season to less goals than he basketed. Gibson was given the position of right forward because of his great work in the four games played against Kansas.

CARNAGE AMONG FACULTY.
The University of Kansas football and basket-ball teams went through their entire seasons this year without a single serious injury; but it was not so with the faculty teams which have been playing weekly since Christmas. No casualties had been reported until last week when a particularly spirited game that was played in the gymnasium claimed a num
Prof. C. H. Johnston, dean of the School of Education, received a very painful black eye from a back-hand blow by John Shea, a fellow in philosophy. It seems that Prof. B. F. Stelter of the English department, is an ardent admirer of Dean Johnston, for soon after the latter's misfortune he came in contact with Shea in such manner as to crack the latter's rib. At this stage of the game an undergraduate entered the conflict. It was not many minutes before the substitute stepped on Professor Stelter's nose and broke the cartilage. ber of victims.
Senior Class Doings.
Robert Johnston, chairman of the class day exercises, is planning on several novel stunts, and some of the traditions which Kansas has lacked in years past may be started on that day.
Robert Fisher, president of the senior class, announced today several changes in the class committees. Because of the withdrawal from school of John Stewart Harvey Burgess was appointed to a place on the invitation committee. James Smith was delegated to arrange for the annual base ball game that takes place between the seniors and the alumni at commencement time. The office of class historian was given to John Harbeson and Louis LaCoss was appointed class prophet.
E. L. Overman, editor of the Jayhawker, stated this morning that Oreta Moore and Delpha Johnson had been made additional members of the annual board.

UNCLE SAM'S PURE FOODS
Professor Jackson Tells How They Are Kept So.
Prof. H. Louis Jackson of the department of chemistry spoke before the Chemical club yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock in the Chemistry building. His subject was "What Unele Sam Does to Keep Our Foods Pure." The government, according to the speaker, has over twenty laboratories throughout the country where food is tested to see whether it is adulterated, underweighed or wrongly labeled. The United States attorney does the prosecuting by one of two methods. One is to direct the case against the goods and if it is successful the goods are sold to pay the costs, destroyed or returned to the owners on bonds. The other method is to direct the case against the firm with penalty of either a fine or imprisonment. Professor Jackson then told of the results accomplished in the first five hundred cases prosecuted. In one instance there was a fine of only one cent imposed.

TRACK MEN CHOSE TO MEET MISSOURI
HAMILTON WILL PICK TEAM FROM TODAY'S TRYOUTS.
French Went 5-11—Fifty-Yard Dash and Hurdles Will Be Run Monday.
The final track try-out for the Missouri meet was held this afternoon in the gymnasium. All the events that will be held in Convention hall next Friday night were run off today with the exception of the 50-yard dash and the hurdles. The trial in these events will be held Monday afternoon. No final heat was held among the contestants, since Coach W. O. Hamilton will use his judgment in picking men from the preliminaries. None of the records made this afternoon were exceptional, but this may be accounted for on the ground that none of the contestants were put to the final test. Osborne from whom Hamilton expects much in the distance races was unable to compete on account of illness. All of the events has not been completed at the itme The Kansan went to press.
Half mile -McMillan first, Pat terson second. Time 2:14.

PLEA FOR SOCIAL SCIENCE
Professor Meade Addresses Phi Beta Kappa in Chapel.
Prof. Geo. B. Meade, of the department of philosophy at the University of Chicago, gave the annual Phi Beta Kappa address last evening in which he made a strong plea for scientific methods in social practices. He explained that while physical science has made vast strides, social science has had very little advancement since the time of the ancients. The definition of an atom has been changed twenty different times to meet now phenomena, while the minutely worded laws, which control justice in this country, have not been modified for centuries.
According to Professor Meade, in criminal actions science should be used in dealing with each problem as it comes up and motives, not facts, should be the ruling factors. Some of the steps which have been taken to put science into social practice are the recall and referendum, the juvenile court and the parole system. Professor Meade maintains that justice should be the socializing of an individual rather than punishment. He closed his remarks by saying: "Nothing could please me more than to see science have the same right of way in social practice as it has in physical practice."
DEBATERS CHOSEN.
Minimum Wage Will Be Argued April 29, With Missouri.
Eliot Porter, a senior, and Clarence Connor, a freshman, will represent Kansas in the Missouri debate April 29. It has been seven years since Kansas has defeated Missouri, but it is the opinion of Professor Gesell that the chances this year favor Kansas.
The two men-who made the team are widely experienced in debate. Eliot Porter won the Inter-fraternity debate last year Connor has taken part in a number of prep school debates.
The subject to be discussed is "Resolved that a minimum wage should be applied in the field of sweated industries." The constitutionality of the question is waived by an agreement between the two schools. The debate will be held at Columbia and Kansas will uphold the negative side of the argument.
Dr. Payne s Sunday Talk.

SENIORS PLAN FOR REUNION IN 1916
COMMITTEE APPOINTED AT MEETING HELD THURSDAY.
Plan to Have Class Meeting Next Friday and Smoker Soon.
Some time ago there was a meeting of several members of the senior class at which time plans were drawn up for a reunion of the class in 1916. Last Thursday evening another meeting was held at the home of Robert Johnston, at 639 Tennessee street and as a result a definite working basis for a class reunion was established. It was decided to provide for two committees who are to have the work in charge. The first committee is to provide for the social features for the rest of the year. It is felt that no concerted movement can be started by the whole class unless there is some social function at which time the plans can be explained and the ideas of a large number of the class be expressed. It is the plan of the committee to provide a smoker for the boys in the near future and conferences will be held with several of the women of the University with the intention of having several meetings at which all of the people of the class will be entertained Robert Fisher, who was appointed chairman of the organization at the previous meeting, announced the following men today as members of the social committee: Robert Johnston, chairman Matt Graham, George Richardson, Everett Sutton, and George Russell.
The other committee is to arrange for and to work up all plans for the reunion, such as the round robin letter and pamphlets each year. Their plans are to be submitted to the students at one of the social functions and if ratified they will have charge of the carrying out of the plans. The members of this committee are Joseph Murray, chairman; Arthur McAdams, Lester Scott, and Homer Berger.
It is the plan of Robert Fisher, president of the class, to call a class meeting for next Friday after chapel. It is urged that all seniors be present, as the movement will be explained.
Fourteen Seniors Given High Honor Friday.

DELAY CAUSED BY ROUTINE BUSINESS
JOINT MEETING IN LEGISLATURE TO BE HELD MONDAY.
Message by Governor Stubba Viewed With Alarm by Friends of Large Appropriation.
Pressure of routine business in both houses Friday and Saturday prevented a joint committee meeting in the state legislature in regard to the University appropriation bill. Early adjournment of both chambers Saturday further delayed consideration of the conflicting bills. Since the legislature has only few more days in which to transact all the business of the present session. a joint meeting must be held not later than Monday of next week.
A message from Governor W. R. Stubbs, which was submitted to the legislature yesterday afternoon, in which he urged that all appropriations should be kept as low as possible, is thought by several of the legislators to have reference to the University appropriation bill. In this message Governor Stubbs urges that while no necessary appropriations should be withheld, that to carry out party pledges all excessive expense to the state should be avoided.
The bill that comes from the joint committee will probably be passed by both houses without delay.
MRS. COOKE DEAD.
No Vespers Tomorrow Nor Classes in North College Today.
Mrs. Clemmie Cooke, aged 53 years, mother of Miss Maude B. Cooke, assistant instructor in piano in the School of Fine Arts died at her home, 917 Kentueky, this morning from a complication of diseases. Mrs. Cooke has been failing in health for the past two years, but last night she became suddenly worse, and for the last two days has been unconscious most of the time.
Mrs. Cooke and the family moved to Lawrence from Fort Scott, Kan., in 1898, that the children might enter the University, and they have made their home here ever since.
Hundred Dollar Loss.
The School of Pharmacy lost a hundred dollars' worth of periodicals in the recent Journal office fire. The periodicals had been sent there to be bound. The University had no insurance on them so will receive no recompense. The periodicals belonged to the twenty-five hundred dollar set that was donated last fall by the Parke Davis company, of Detroit, Mich.

SUPPORT THE DEBATERS.
Last year there was a fair attendance at the only debate held here—the one with Missouri. But it is safe to say that the names of the men who represented this University against the other schools could not be told by twenty-five people in school. At other schools the debaters are chosen from a long list of try-outs and much enthusiasm is manifested by the students in their support of the team. Of course there are some who explain this lack of interest by saying that debating belongs to academic schools. If these people will notice the great enthusiasm that is shown by the students at the large colleges in the East they will find that the man who can deliver a public address is given the hearty backing of the entire student body.
The interest in debating at this University has never been in keeping with the importance that this phase of student activity demands. A comparatively small number of the student body try out for the team each year and the support that our representatives on the platform receive is disheartening both to the contestants and to the faculty members who have charge of these affairs.
It is the intention of The Kansan to give all possible publicity
to University debates to be held this year and it is hoped that the men who are to represent this school against Missouri, Oklahoma and Colorado will receive the encouragement that their sacrifices demand.
The hair-raising flights of "Dare devil" Evans yesterday indicate that he has never felt the call for the higher life. The aviation meet at Woodland park was somewhat of a misnomer.
In order to keep pace with progress at this institution, we move that in addition to providing clocks in the class room, the authorities furnish alarms for these time pieces in order to indicate the time for rising to sleepy students.
The report that there is much carnage among the faculty in their basket-ball games comes as a surprise. We always imagined that a faculty athletic contest was about as dangerous as a war in Mexico.
---
And now the New York papers have it that the girls at the University of Kansas play poker for hat pins, jewelry and various other articles of femininity. The gross immorality of the students of this school seems to be shocking eastern newspapers into a distortion of facts that is far more harmful than a quiet use of poker chips. Oh, this college life is Awful! Terrible!
Beginning with this issue of The Kansan, a column of University news clipped from the University Courier will be printed in each Saturday's paper.
The Courier was the University paper published in the '80s. We believe that the students of today will be interested in some of the naive comments that were printed in the Courier and in observing that students have no changed a great deal in twenty-six years.

That the issues are often blurred was one explanation of the difficulty offered by Professor Meade.

Professor Meade Told of Chicago Election in Chapel.
The recent mayoralty primary campaign in Chicago with its large expenditure of money served as an introduction to a discussion of the problems of government especially of the great cities by Professor George B. Meade of the University of Chicago in a chapel address yesterday morning.
"The government has been depending upon the financial interests of the country in one way or another for a long time, but wrong relations between 'big business' and politics has seriously aggravated the evils of the spoils system," said the speaker. "If governmental functions by the agency of political parties are to be conducted in a healthy manner, the people themselves must take a vital interest in the problems and come to the polls," said Professor Meade. "The Oregon methods to make citizens intelligent have been useful in bringing the government close to the people, but it is astonishing to see how difficult it is at times to arouse interest in problems like city transportation which in their very nature are of vital interest to the community."

PHARMIC STRUGGLE ATTENDED BY 150
THE JOLLIFICATION LAST ED FROM 8:30 TO 12.
-
Professor Bailey Surprises Faculty by a Shotgun Quiz—Professor Sayre's Anniversary.
There are customs at the University, designed to advance good fellowship and interest among the students, that improve with age. Such is the case with the Knights of the Mortar and Pestle, who gave their twelfth annual Pharmie Struggle at the Eldridge house Thursday evening. Each banquet for the past dozen years has been better than the one which preceded it and the one this year was the most elaborate of all.
Over 150 members of the faculty and students of the school were present. The entertainment started at eight-thirty with singing and general jollification. The banquet began at nine. There were seven courses; each course written as a druggist's prescription on the menu. An hour and a half later, P. H. Carl, the toastmaster, introduced Dean L. E. Sayre, the first speaker.
Professor Sayre devoted his talk to the present difficulty of obtaining fair legislation for the pharmaceutical profession.
He was followed by Prof. L. D. Havenhill, who gave a fable history of the Pharmaceutical society. Prof. E. H. S. Bailey next took the floor and turned the tables on the faculty by subjecting the members present to an oral shot-gun quiz.
An appeal to raise the standard of pharmacy was made by W. S. Dick, of the state pharmaceutical board, and Prof. F. W. Bushong followed him with stories on petroleum. Prof. H. W. Emerson treated his subject, "Pharmacy Signs," from the story telling standpoint and following him E. W. Cookson spoke for the senior class.
The out-of-town speaker of the evening was F. Tilford, of the state board of health. He outlined briefly the difficulties with which the board meets in its work for purer drugs.
Professors G. N. Watson and C.A. Nash, the two remaining faculty speakers, chose for their subjects, "The Pharmic" and "What's the Use?" The toasts ended with one by Chas. C.Cramer, a member of the junior class.
H. D. Faxon, of Kansas City, Mo., who was to have spoken, was unable to attend the banquet.
Besides being the annual banquet the event also marked the twenty-fifth anniversary of Professor L. E. Sayre's deanship.
Dr. Naismith Invents Machine to Dry Hair.
FOR GIRL SWIMMERS.
A hair drying machine installed in the women's gymnasium this week is the latest mechanical novelty and fills a long felt need. The girls no longer have an excuse for not joining the swimming classes as they can now dry their hair in a fraction of the time formerly required. The principle of the new apparatus consists in throwing air by a fan over steam coils. There are openings for three girls at a time. The machine was invented by Dr. Naismith especially for use in the gymnasium. A larger far will be installed soon.
After a trip of six games,three of which were won and three lost the College team returned Thursday night from their first annual tour of the state.
WON THREE OUT OF SIX.
College Team Home From Trip Around State.
The men who did the best in scoring for the College team on the trip are Hite with 15 baskets, Beamer, with 14, and Nesbitt with 13 goals from the field. The close guarding of Eisele and Nesbitt kept the score of the opposing teams down.
In the fourth game of the trip with the Lindsborg "Swedes," the College team defeated their opponents by the score of 22 to 16. When the game started the Bethany five jumped into the contest with the intent to win and to make amends for their defeat on the court in Robinson gymnasium. At the end of the first fifteen minutes the score stood nine to one in favor of the Bethany men. However in the last five minutes of play of that half, the department men played the game so hard that when the whistle blew time out, the score was 11 to 9 in favor of the College men. From that time on, the lead of the College five increased and at no time during the remainder of the contest did the home team have a chance of winning their contest. Hite did the best work in scoring for the College five with four field goals from difficult angles of the court.
The last game that the College five played was with the St. Marys five Thursday afternoon and resulted in a defeat for St. Marys by the score of 34 to 23. The contest was even throughout the entire game until the last few minutes of play when the College team increased its lead to 11 points and maintained that count till the last whistle blew time out. Houlehan, left forward of the St. Marys team,gave a great exhibition of goal-shooting by tossing seven baskets from the field.
A STORY OF THE PRAIRIES
Miss Lynn's Story in Atlantic Monthly Not an Autobiography
In the current issue of the "Atlantic Monthly," the following paragraph appears in the index to contributors: "Miss Margaret Lynn ('A Step-Daughter of the Prairie,' an instructor in the University of Kansas, who gives in this agreeable form a chapter of her own autobiography."
The story itself is essentially the autobiography of a romantic, poetry-loving little girl with a "Tennysonian vocabulary." She lived on the prairie, but longed for the woods, the woods of poetry with their hidden wonders. She wanted to link reality with romance. She called a muddy little creek, with treeless, cow-trodden banks,a brook; a hollow on the bank she called a glen. The prairie was not suggestive to her it did not hint of the unknown. In latter years, however, she saw the possibility of there being a literature of the prairie.
Miss Lynn is an assistant professor in English literature at the University, and has been-connected with the institution for the past ten years. She has published a collection of English poems with notes. The present article in the "Atlantic" is her first published story, but will be followed soon by others. Miss Lynn denies that the story is a part of her autobiography, and says it is entirely fiction.
HUFFMAN BILL KILLED
That the Regeits of the University of Kansas will retain their positions as the governing board of that institution, was definitely decided Tuesday, when the senate defeated the Huffman bill by a vote of 28 to 9.
State Institutions to Be Governed as Before
The measure introduced by Huffman called for an administration board of three members, to have power over all state schools. This idea was recommended by Governor Stubbs in his last message to the senate and would have abolished the Board of Regents of the University of Kansas, the State Agricultural College and the State Normals.
Every senator representing a district where a state educational institution is located, voted against the bill.

RAINFALL BROKE RECORD
Last Month Was Wettest February Known in Kansas.
According to the monthly weather report, just issued by the University, February, 1911, had a record-breaking rainfall. The total rainfall for the month- including melted snow, was 5.46 inches, which is 3.87 inches above the February average and greater than recorded for any other February in Kansas in all the years since the records were begun in 1868 by the late Dr. F. H. Snow. Three thunder storms were recorded for the month and this breaks another record, as only two previous Februaries have had as many as two thunder storms.
The mean temperature for the month was 34.84 degrees, which is 2.04 degrees above the February average. The highest temperature was 71.3 degrees on the 15th and the lowest was 7.4 degrees on the 21st.
The seismograph registered four earthquakes during the month, but all were very small and ill-defined.

SCOOP CLUB AGAIN IS A LIVE WIRE
HELD SESSION LAST NIGHT AND ELECTS NINE MEMBERS
Intends to Have Regular Meetings—Will Invite Prominent Newspaper Men to Speak.
The Scoop club has become active again. Last night at a meeting in the parlors of the Eldridge house, the old members of the club decided that it was time for the club to become again a factor in University affairs. The Scoop club is an organization of University men who have had actual newspaper experience. It was organized eight years ago and for several years thereafter the Lawrence Daily Journal permitted the club to publish one issue of the paper each year. In the Scoop club edition of 1907 numerous violations of the prohibitory law in Lawrence were exposed and an investigation started which resulted in a general "clean up" by the city authorities. Since that time the club has become more or less active, but none of the down town papers have ever invited the club to issue another number.
The old members of the club now in school are: Joseph W. Murray, Earl Fischer,Homer Berger, Clark Wallace,Ralph Spotts, J. Earl Miller, Frank Motz, Nelson Stephens, and Harry Kemp. It is the purpose of these men to create in the University a more general interest in newspaper work. One of the members said: "We hope that the Scoop club will accomplish more in the future than it has in the past few years. We propose to hold regular meetings at which we will have prominent newspaper men talk upon the various phases of newspaper work, and thus bring us into closer relationship with the profession generally."
The new members elected last night were: Edwin White, Ellis Davidson, Geoffrey Miller, Alston McCarty, Milton Baer, Louis La Coss, Tom Johnson, Carl Cannon Don Hendrickson and Wilbur Rogers.
MODEL U. S. SENATE
Cooley Club Form Legislative Body in School of Law.
The Cooley club has changed itself into a senate modeled as far as possible after the United States senate. At their meetings on Friday afternoon they will discuss some political questions of the day. Yesterday the question was "Reciprocity with Canada." It will also be the question for next Friday. Each member represents a senator from some state and is expected to vote as the senator of that state should vote. All law students are invited. It is hoped to have the full membership of two senators from each state.
American Chemical Society.
The Kansas City section of the Ameican Chemical society will hold its monthly meeting in Lawrence at the Chemistry building on Saturday, March 18. Mr. Reese of Peet Brothers' Soap company and Mr. Bushnell of the Armour Packing company, both of Kansas City, will speak.
Manager W. C. Lansdon has gone to Chanute, Kan., on business and will return to the University Monday.
Y. W. WORK AT HASKELL.
One Hundred Girls Given Phys ical and Religious Education.
One hundred girls of Haskell Institute now belong to both the gymnasium and Bible classes which girls of the University Y. W. C. A. are conducting at that school. The Bible work is divided into four classes, two sections meeting at 7:30 and the other two at 8:30 on Monday evenings. Three seniors, Mable Evans, Violet Haynes, Allena Grafton and a junior, Bess Taylor, each have a class. The gym class is divided into two sections, and as it also meets on Monday evenings, one half of the Indian girls are at the Bible classes, while the other half are at the gymnasium. Bertha Mix, a junior, and Delpha Johnson, each have charge of one class.
The Haskell authorities to and the work during the year, have bought wands and other apparatus. The institute at uresent has no gymnasium for the girls. The work is well systematized as the two students conducting the gym classes have had special work under Dr. Naismith. The Indian girls are enthusiastic and plan to give a public exhibition soon, if they can obtain permission. This is practically the first year of the work.
An Educational Test.
A professor in the University of Chicago told his pupils that he should consider them educated in the best sense of the word, when they could say yes to everyone of seventeen questions that he should put to them. The questions are as follows:
Has education given you sympathy with all good causes and made you esponse them?
Has it made you public spirited?
Has it made you a brother to the weak?
Have you learned how to make friends and keep them?
Do you know what it is to be a friend yourself?
Can you look an honest man or a pure woman straight in the eye?
Do you see anything to love in a little child?
Will a lonely dog follow you in the street?
Do you think washing dishes and hoeing corn just as compatible with high-thinking as piano playing or golf?
Can you look out over the world and see anything but dollars and cents?
Are you good for anything to yourself?
Can you be happy alone?
Can you look into a mud puddle by the wayside and see the clear sky?
Can you see anything in the
uddle but mud?
Professor Ralph W. Cone, formerly of the department of economies of the University who resigned his position as associate professor in that department last fall on account of ill health, has recovered from a serious operation and is now regaining his strength.

Can you look into the sky at night and see beyond the stars?

POTTER'S LAKE IS ALMOST COMPLETED
RESERVOIR WILL AFFORL FIRE PROTECTION.
Capacity of New Lake Will B
4,000,000 Gallons—Area of
Two Acres—Gost $9,000.
After the workmen have completed the spillway at the north end of Potter's Lake, a task upon which they are at present engaged, the lake will be ready for use. Recent rains and snows have partially filled the lake with water, but a pipe line is being constructed from the pumps on the hill to the lake so that water from the city mains may be used to fill the lake. Water from the lake will be pumped through large motor-driven centrifugal pump and will give the University adequate fire protection. The water supply which is now obtained from the city mains is entirely insufficient for such purposes.
Potter Lake is named for State Senator Potter, from Marion county, who was formerly a regent of the University. It will hold 4,000,00 gallons of water when completed and will cover an area of two acres. The water will be sixteen feet deep at the dam, and the dam is about eight feet wide at the top and sixty feet wide at the base.
The students will be allowed to use the lake for swimming and skating. The lake will also be used in the military maneuvers of the Kansas National Guards, when they hold their sham battle next spring. The cost of the lake will approximate $9,000.
TO INCREASE MEMBERSHIP
Y. W. C. A. Begins Campaign for Three Hundred Members.
The membership and finance committees of the Young Women's Christian Association began a new membership campaign on Thursday of this week. They are trying to increase the membership of the University association to three hundred, and have had excellent success up to the present time.
The city is divided into thirteen districts and two girls work together in a house to house canvass in each district. Two of the girls secured sixteen new members in an hour and a half Thursday and report that only two girls who were asked, refused to join. In all about thirty new members were added as a result of the first day's canvass.
The regular Wednesday meeting next week will be a special one for the new members. The full reports of the committees will be read at that time. In accordance with an annual custom, a banquet will be held some time this month, probably in Snow hall, for all the student members of the Association, and the Lawrence women who are the sustaining members of the organization.
Missouri has recently held a spelling match for members of the faculty with sides chosen by prominent professors. Among those who missed on the word "bdellium," were Professors H. Wade Hibbard and President A. Ross Hill, both formerly of Cornell.

ANNOUNCE ARTISTS IN SPRING CONCERT
ARRANGEMENTS COMPLETED FOR MUSICAL FESTIVAL
Several of Last Year's Singer Will Be Heard Again—Kansas Will Be Represented.
All arrangements have been practically completed for the eighth annual music festival which takes place this year in Robinson gymnasium, on April 6 and 7, one month earlier than the date of the previous annual concerts.
The Minneapolis Symphony orchestra which appeared at the festival last year will play again at the University this year. They will give three concerts, one on Thursday evening, Friday afternoon, and Friday evening. The artists for the first concert on Thursday evening are Madame Jane Norelli, soprano, and Carle Fisher, violoncellist. Madame Norelli has been a member of the Covent Garden Opera company of London and of the Metropoli tan Grand Opera company of New York city. Mr. Fisher is the vilonecellist of the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra. A quartet of singers composed of Mrs Tewksbury, soprano; Miss Genevieve Wheat, contralto; Mr Charles Hargreaves, tenor; and Mr. Marcus Kellerman, basso will assist the orchestra in the concerts. One special feature of the concerts will be the famous "Quintet" from Richard Wagner's opera, "The Master-Singers," in which Professor Hubael of the School of Fine Arts will as sist the visiting artists.
Prof. Wort Morse and Mrs Blanche Lyons of the School of Fine Arts will be the other loca soloists who will take part in the festival.
HOUSE TRIES A HAND.
Bill for One Governing Board Again Introduced.
The house recommended for passage yesterday the bill introduced by A. M. Keene, of Bourbon county, providing for the consolidation of all of the state educational institutions under one board of control or board of administration. This bill was killed in the senate and it is said there is not much chance of putting the house bill through that body. The bill was so amended in the house as to include the school for the blind and the school for the deaf under the proposed board of control. The bill abolishes the board of regents of the different institutions and the creation of a board of three to have charge of all of the institutions.
Grades Not to Be Made Public.
There will be no comparison of the frat and barb grades made public this year, according to information given out by Registrar Geo. O. Foster this morning. A comparison is to be made for administrative purposes, but will not be published because of the comment it would undoubtedly cause.
John W. Davis, a member of the state legislature, visited at the Sigma Nu house Sunday.
ON GERMAN STUDENT LIFE
Professor Gorbin Told of Berlin University Experiences.
Prof. Alberta Corbin of the department of German of the University, gave an interesting talk in chapel this morning about her summer's trip in Europe. Miss Corbin spent much of her time at the University of Berlin and her address was largely about that institution.
She said that the German University students as a rule were older than students in America. A number of Americans attend the University of Berlin and the facilities for research work are exceptionally good. Our "student activities" are unknown in Germany, but a great interest is taken in politics and just now the foreign problem, especially concerning Jews, claims a great deal of attention.. The few American professors are well liked. The chief form of athletics is walking.
The Germans believe that America is ruled by money interests, said Miss Corbin. Some Germans envy us, others tolerate us, and most of them think we have no culture or depth of character.
"The invasion of Berlin by strong commercial interests is termed 'Americanism.' When I protested against their opinions that Americans stood for shrewd business without soul," said Professor Corbin, "they maintained that the money interests of our eastern coasts ruled the nation without regard to the sentiments in the Middle West. Yet at least they like us better than do the English and there is a strong society organized for the purpose of discussing American affairs."
The museums, art galleries and theaters in Berlin are very interesting. At the theaters, hats and coats are left in the lobby and one is not allowed to come in late unless he is a member of the royal family. Miss Corbin said that Americans could not help feeling disgusted at some of their medieval customs.
To Tell of Work for Jews.
Jacob Billikopf, superintendent of the Jewish Educational Institute of Kansas City, Mo., will speak Thursday evening at 6:45 in Meyers hall, on the subject, "For the Uplift of the Jew." Mr. Billikopf is a Jew, having come to this country when young. He took up charity work as his life work and has been very successful in his undertaking. He has been engaged in charitable work in New York city, Chicago, and Milwaukee. Previous to his coming to Kansas City, three years ago he was superintendent of the United Jewish charities at Milwaukee, Wis.
Frank Parker, an '08 law, and former holder of the University high jump record, was visiting friends at the University yesterday. Mr. Parker is now a traveling salesman for the John Deere Plow company.
Immediately after the senior class meeting, to be held Friday after chapel, there will be a meeting of all senior men who have been awarded class numerals in football.
PROSPECTS BRIGHT FOR INDOOR MEET
TWENTY-FOUR MEN WILL COMPOSE THE SQUAD.
Eighth Annual Indoor Meet Will Be a Close Contest—Coach Hamilton Has Doubts.
Twenty-four men,composing the track team that will represent Kansas, will journey to Kansas City next Friday night to meet the Tigers in Convention hall in the first big indoor meet of the year. This is to be the eighth time that the Missouri and Kansas athletes have met in indoor competition and for the last seven times the Tigers have been successful in plucking the Jayhawkers' tail feathers. The student enthusiasts who have been following the work of the Kansas runners closely this year are confident that the time has come when this hoodoo will be broken and that the Kansas men will be victorious in the approaching contest.
For the last two, years Kansas has defeated its opponents in the out-door meet and this year the chances of winning the indoor meet are very favorable.
Although twenty-four men will be taken to Kansas City on the team, only seventeen will be allowed to run or participate in the events that will be held. Two men will participate in each event for each of the two schools. The names of the men who will enter the races and field events have not yet been announced by Coach Hamilton, but the men who will go on the squad have been made known. In the try-outs held Saturday and yesterday afternoon for the meet, the showing of the men was not such as would promise any thing bright for the Kansas team on the floor of Convention hall. It is conceded by all the followers of the squad that nothing but real work can give the Jayhawkers the victory and then it will be by a very narrow margin. The chief concern of the coach this week is to keep the men from going stale.
The men who will make the trip to Kansas City and the evenuts, that they will be entered in are:
50 yard dash: Hamilton, Roberts, D. Davis, C. Woodbury and H. Woodbury.
High hurdles—C. Woodbury,
H. Woodbury, French and Parker.
Low hurdles—C. Woodbury;
Hamilton, D. Davis.
440 yard run—Hamilton, G. Smith, Fairchilds, Black, Rice, D. Davis.
880 yard run—Kraus, E. Davis

Two Mile--Fisher, Murray, Osborne, Watson.

TRACK RALLY THURSDAY
Dr Naismith, Lansdon, Hamilton and Others Will Talk.
A monster track team rally will be held in Fraser hall Thursday evening at 7:30 o'clock. The coach and the members of the team have been doing their best the past few months to win from the Tigers and it it hoped by those in charge of the meeting that many hundred students will turn out at this meeting to show that they are behind the track men and their coach.
It is planned to open the meeting with a concert by the University band which will accompany the team to Kansas City. A large number of stereopticon slides have been secured showing the great track athletes of the world in their special events. These will be shown and explained by Dr. Naismith in a brief and interesting lecture.
Short talks will be made by Manager Lansdon, Coach Hamilton, and others, concerning the history of the indoor met and the possibilities of a victory this year.
HOW ABOUT YOUR DATES?
Prom. Committee Will Make Personal Canvass.
Dates for the Junior Prom are still coming in slowly. With the night for the Prom only seven weeks off, only a small per cent of the dates are in and only one half as many as were in at this time last year. At a meeting of the invitation committee last night it was decided that unless dates come in faster than they have been for the past few days that it will be necessary for the members of the committee to make a personal canvass of the class. The committee especially desires that dates be handed in promptly, as this will greatly facilitate the completion of the final arrangements for the Prom. Full information concerning the rules and regulations of the Prom may be had from any of the following people, who will also receive dates: Geo, Beezley, Ray Hoskinson, Don Davis, Tom DeForest, Carleton Armsby, Bertha Mix, Winifred Fisher, Mac Rosman, Nina Pilkenton ,and Elsie Smith.
MRS. COOKE'S FUNERAL.
Vesper Program Will Be Changed Next Sundav.
The Men's Student Council will meet in room 110 tomorrow evening at 7:30 o'clock.
The funeral of Mrs. Clemie Cooke, mother of Miss Maude Cooke, who is a member of the faculty in the School of Fine Arts, was held yesterday afternoon at her home on Kentucky street. Professors C. Edward Hubach, C. A. Preyer, C. G. Dunlap, W. L. Burdick and John N. Van der Vries, and Mr. John Kilworth acted as palibearers. No classes were held in North College yesterday.
The program for last Sunday's vesper services, which were postponed on account of Mrs. Cooke's death, will be changed for next Sunday. An announcement of the program will be made later.
COMMITTEE NAMED BY LEGISLATURE
WILL MEET TONIGHT TO DECIDE APPROPRIATIONS.
Senators Huffman and Hodges and Representatives Mercer, Brown and Graham Chosen.
Reports from Topeka relative to the University appropriation bill, say that the conference committee of both houses has been appointed and that the members are now working on the bill. The committee is composed of Squators Huffman and Hodges and Representatives Mercer, Brown of Kingman, and Graham. It is expected that the committee will complete their work tonight, and that at the opening of the legislative session tomorrow morning the conference report will be submitted.
In the house this morning a spirited debate was held over the board of control bill. Representative Keene of Bourbon county made mention of Chancellor Strong which drew enthusiastic applause from a number of the representatives. The house, by many has been considered hostile to the wishes of the Chancellor, and this approval by them is regarded as a good omen of the attitude of the house.
TO FIGHT BUGS.
$10,000 Appropriated for State Commission.
Ten thousand dollars for the use of the state entomological commission in its work of driving the San Jose scale out of Kansas was provided in a bill which the senate passed yesterday. Professor Hunter of the University of Kansas,who has had charge of this work in the southern half of the state, appeared before the senate and explained the nature of the work and told of the progress that had been made during the past two years. He said that 4,821 orchards had been inspected and every tree in those orchards inspected for the scale. He said that 65,000 infested trees had been discovered, but that only 347 of these had been in such condition that it had been necessary to destroy the trees. The others were cured by proper spraying.
Y. W. C. A. Meeting.
A girls' meeting of the Y. W. C. A. will be held at the regular time, Wednesday at 4:45 in room 110. The membership committee will give its report and Grace Elmore will speak.

A REUNION IN 1916.
The members of the class of 1911 are attempting something that has been thought of at previous times but because of lack of sufficient initiative has never been put in operation. It is the plan of the present members of the class to provide for a reunion of the class in 1916, at which time arrangements will be made for another reunion, the entire movement to result in an assembling of this year's class at regular intervals in the years to come.
The semi-centennial of the founding of the University comes in the year 1916 and it is felt that a more suitable date could not be found. The University will probably provide some interesting entertainment relative to the beginnings of this institution. It is also believed that in five years certain pecuniary difficulties that might encumber in the few years after graduation, will be removed.
This movement ought to receive the support and the encouragement of every member of the senior class. School life would seem to loose much of its attractivenuess if it is to be considered that a four years' acquaintance ends all of our relations as students at the same university. Graduates from other large colleges tell us that
the happiest moments of their lives are when they have their class reunions, long after graduation, and that they find a bond of common union and sympathy is formed such as was supposed not to exist while they were attending school.
A meeting of the senior class will be held next Friday and the way in which to give an impetus to the movement for a reunion is to be present at the meeting. A large attendance at chapel Friday with a proper expression of views will assure a large gathering of the class of 1911 at their reunion in 1916.
The announcement that the Scoop club is rejuvenated and is again doing business at the same old stand will probably cause certain denizens of the East Bottoms to make all customers give the pass word before a trade is made.
The Mexican laborer whom one sees along the railroads in the United States does not impress one as being a person of especial political importance. And yet, according to one of the speakers at the recent engineers' banquet, it is the same laborer who is kicking up much of the present fuss in Mexico.

His sojourn in the States has put democratic ideas into his head which won't get out." Living in his cramped and unsanitary bunk car, doing his work exposed to all extremes of heat and cold, the Mexican laborer appears to have none too easy time in this country, and it would seem that conditions at which he will revolt in his home country must indeed be pretty bad.

EXPERTS LECTURE ON ADVERTISING
FOUR ADDRESSES COMING IN NEW COURSE.
Advertising Men of Lawrence Firms Invited to Hear Talks in New Course.
It is the aim of the department of journalism to make the new course in advertising, which was established at the opening of the second semester, as useful as possible. To this end, the business men of Lawrence have been invited to attend a series of four lectures which will be given in the course by advertising experts.
Prof. C. M. Harger, head of the department, has arranged for two addresses by the managers of the advertising departments of the Capper publications at Topeka. E. W. Rankin and Marco Morrow. F. A. Gray, of the Gray Realty company of Kansas City, who gave several lectures before the reporting classes last year, will make two addresses.
An invitation has been extended to all the business firms of Lawrence to send their advertising men to hear these addresses.
The new course in advertising is attracting considerable attention from advertising men who have written making inquiries about it. It is believed to be the only course in advertising offered in any state university.
ARE YOUR CREDITS GOOD?
Geo. O. Foster's Annual Muckraking Expedition About to Start
This is the week when Registrar George O. Foster gets in some of his most deadly work. The checking up of seniors who are candidates for degrees in June will begin. It is a time of suspense for those who are hovering on the ragged edge of just enough hours to graduate, and those who feel in their bones that they are a few points shy. If it isn't on the books, it isn't anywhere. A number of students of former years can testify that the Registrar can't be bluffed in his matter of credits.
Each senior is expected to file at the registrar's office an application for the degree for which he is a candidate. This applies to all schools.
Spooner Gets New Index.
A new card index has been purchased by the University and placed in Spooner Library. The old case, made in 1894, is very bunglesome and inadequate.. Not only is the new case a great improvement over the old one in appearance, but it is much easier to handle. The index is made of finely finished oak with brass handles on the drawers. The seventy-eight trays of the case are the standard size of the Library Bureau Co., and are all interchangeable. There are portable shelves for resting the trays on while searching for a card.
City Engineer to Speak.
L. R. Ash, of Kansas City, Mo., will speak before the Civil Engineering society next Thursday at 7:30 o'clock, in Blake hall. Mr. Ash is the city engineer of Kansas City and will speak on some municipal problem. He has given interesting talks here for each of the past two years.
Frank C. Nutter, of Kansas City, is stopping at the Phi Psi house over Sunday.
Medic Class Eat Iodide With Varied Results.
CRUELTY TO FRESHMEN
Let the guns that are trained against vivisection roar. Not guinea pigs, but innocent freshmen are now being sacrificed, for the cause of science, here at the University. Wednesday morning of last week each member of the freshman medical class was compelled to swallow a seven grain capsule of potassium iodide, just to see how long it would take for his system to absorb the chemical. When the iodide was completely absorbed, the saliva of the Medies should turn blue. In exactly eight minutes each freshman was furnishing the desired test. In ten minutes every member of the class was sick.
Thursday three of the boys were sick in bed, and the rest of the class feeling about as cut up as the appropriation bill. The taking of an iodide capsule is one of the regular experiments of the freshmen class, but has never had any disastrous effects before. The Medies believe that the Pharmics doped the pills,but the latter are keeping quiet and refuse to be interviewed in the matter.
Tournament Being Played.
The eliminating contests in the round robin tennis tournament have narrowed the number of players to eight. Rohrer, H. Richardson, Hawes and Nees have played the greatest number of games and have still a high percentage of games won which will allow them to continue in the tournament. H. Wilson, Uhlraub, Motz and Allen are the other men who have been doing some good work and who will probably play in the finals.
At the present time all the games are being played on the gymnasium floor, but as soon as the weather opens up the tournament will be transferred to the outdoor courts.
Spoke Before Westminster Guild.
Edward Weidlein, who has the Stubbs-Grenfell scholarship for investigation of the secret glands of deep sea mammals, gave an interesting lecture Saturday evening on a trip he made to Labrador. The speech was given before the Westminster Guild, an organization of Presbyterian students of the University. Mr. Weidlein gave an account of the life of the fishermen of Newfoundland and Labrador. The people of these countries are chiefly engaged in the whaling industry.
Aouncement has been received in Lawrence of the marriage of James A. Flint and Johanna R. Thom, Monday, January 13, in New York.

Washburn defeated the Kansas State Agricultural College in basket-bail Saturday evening at Topeka by a score of 32 to 23.

Baker in turn defeated the Normals and then was defeated in their last game with Washburn.

Mr. Engel is a professor of German at this University, and has been away since the first of June on a year's leave of absence. He and his family are visiting in Germany.
The article as printed says in part:
“Professor E. F. Engel of the University of Kansas, gave us a delightful talk last evening on the American poet, James Whitcomb Riley. Mr. Engel illustrated his points by reciting numerous poems. The most interesting poem of the evening was “There Little Girl Don't Cry,” which was recited by Dorothy Engel. Miss Agnes Engel played an accompaniment for one of the Riley poems set to music.

FIRST CALL FOR SPRING PRACTICE
BALL PLAYERS WILL MEET CAPT HALLER SATURDAY.
Many Men Will Be Out for Places This Year—The Outlook Is Encouraging.
The first baseball practice on McCook field this spring will be held at 3 o.clock Saturday afternoon. The call was issued by Captain Haller today and the men who intend to try for a place on the squad this spring are expected to report to the captain for the first practice of the year. The coaching of the team this year will be done by Manager Lansdon and Captain Hailer. At present McCook field is not in a good condition for base ball practice, but as soon as the weather permits the work of putting the diamond in shape will be undertaken and early practice will begin in earnest.
"The prospects of having a winning team this season look better to me at present than they did at this time last year," said Captain Haller this afternoon, when asked about the men who intended to try for positions on the squad. "Of course, we cannot tell very much about how the team will progress as yet, but the number of old men back in the game looks encouraging."
Eight of the men who played on the squad last year will be out for the nine and many of the freshmen who played good ball last spring have expressed their intentions of giving the old men a hard run for places. The men
or last year's squad who will try for the nine this year are Captain Haller, "Jim" Smith, "Hutch" Walker, Palmer, Larson, Wilhelm, Dick Ward, Locke, and Farrell. Some of the other men who will enter the race for the positions are Nesbitt, Lynch, and McMullen. The members of the freshman team who are trying for places on the squad are Hill, Porter, Laffer, Hicks, Walker, Hamilton, Busiek McCarty, Ashercraft, and Weede. The men who will work for the batteries are Jim Smith and Hill, catchers and Locke, Farrell, Busick, McCarty, Ashercraft, and Weede, pitchers.
TO VISIT STATE COLLEGES
Members of Faculty Will Make Trip This Week.
The faculty committee which visits the small colleges in Kansas each year to promote mutual interests between such schools and the University, will make their first trip this year from Thursday to Saturday of this week. Professors J. N. Van der Vries, R. R. Price and S. J. Hunter will visit Southwestern College at Winfield, and Fairmount, and Friends Colleges at Wichita, Dean F. W. Blackmar. Prof. G. C. Shaad and Prof. E. M. Hopkins will visit Emporia College at Emporia, Bethel College at Newton, and Cooper College at Sterling. Professors A. S. Olin, H. P. Cady and L. E.

PRISON STORIES BY SYLVIA PANKHURST
NOTED SUFFRAGETTE WILL SPEAK HERE SOON.
Egg sandwiches at College Inn
Equal Suffrage League and Douglas County Equal Franchise League Secured Her.
Miss Sylvia Pankhurst, the noted suffragette worker of England, will speak in chapel a week from Thursday and will give a lecture Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock in the Presbyterian church. Miss Pankhurst, who is making her first trip through the United States, is to speak in Lawrence through the efforts of the College Equal Suffrage League and the Douglas County Equal Franchise League. Her Lecture "Prison Experiences," is a short story of her own life, showing the suffering which many women are enduring for the sake of equal suffrage in England.
In England the authorities do not permit women to speak upon suffrage. Miss Pankhurst has twice been arrested for circulating petitions for women suffrage. She is the daughter of the late Dr. Pankhurst, a leading lawyer and the special champion of women's rights and religious liberty; and of Mrs. Pankhurst, whose reputation as a woman's suffrage leader is world wide. Miss Pankhurst has spoken in nearly all of the large cities of the United States. She spoke in the Iowa legislature and in Toronto and other cities of Canada. Although only twenty-five years of age Miss Pankhurst has been through more active political experience than fall to most politicians in a long life.
In the varsity sports at Oxford, England, Saturday, George E. Putnam, a Rhodes scholar from Ottawa, Kan., won the hammer throw with a mark of 148 feet 2 inches.
Miss Pankhurst is a vigorous writer as well as speaker and has written much and with practical effect on the conditions of women's labor, on prison reform, and on the equal suffrage question. Her leading work is "The Suffragette," a history of the Militant Votes-for-Women movement in England. The efforts of the English women have been of such weight that the cause of women suffrage is to be heard by the English legislators in May.
Putnam was graduated from the University in 1907, when he was only 19 years old. He was one of the University's strongest athletes while in College, both on the track and the football field The next year he spent at Yale where he was granted a master of arts degree and in September 1908, was appointed the Rhode Scholar to Oxford from Kansas.
Miss Helen Phillips is the president of the University organization, and Mrs. Paul R. Brooks of the City League.
Putnam Stars Again.
Last spring he broke the English amateur record for the hammer throw with a throw of 158 feet 1 inch.

HONEST STUDENTS, SURE!
Registrar Foster's Remarks Do Not Apply Here.
Work was commenced yesterday on a residence for Prof. H. W. Humble, on lots just west of the engineering building, overlooking the golf links.
Registrar Geo. O. Foster, who gave a speech in chapel a short time ago on the dishonesty of the students, should be somewhat reconciled by the long list on the bulletin boards, of lost articles handed in to Secretary Brown. Possibly the most honest man in the University is A. E. Mallory, whose name appears on the list as the finder of a pin No 85. Prof. F. W. Blackmar is recorded as having reported two lost gloves; but the fact that these were not mates detracts somewhat from the apparent integrity of the finder. All suspicion is removed from Joe Glahn, for he reported two rings, a watch fob, a pocketbook and a knife. James King found a Student Enterprise ticket and a fountain pen; but the latter did not tempt him to sign the former. If no one calls at the secretary's office and identifies articles No 12 and 14, before March 10, two professors' daughters, Miss Sterling and Miss Hodder, will be owners of a fountain pen apiece. Secretary Brown is especially anxious to get rid of a Beta and a Phi Delt hat pin. He doesn't want anyone to suggest that he place a three-ball sign over the door of his office.
Thirty students of the University went to Topeka last Saturday to attend "Ben Hur."

VOLUME VII.
PROVISION MADE FOR ONE BOARD
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, THURSDAY, MARCH 9, 1911
PRESENT REGENTS LOSE OFFICE IN JULY.
Under New Law All the State Schools Are Under Same Government—Stubbs May Veto.
The Keene bill provides for one Board of Regents for all state institutions to consist of three members who shall have complete charge of all affairs. They are to devote all of their time to the work and are to receive a salary of $2,500 per year. The new board will take up its duties on July 1, 1911, after which the severa, Boards of Regents now controlling the institutions shall cease to exist. The board will have offices in the state house at Topeka, and will meet regularly each month as well as at all other times that shall be necessary.
By concurring in the house bill, the senate yesterday made provision for one board of control for all of the state institutions. A week ago the house passed the Keene bill for the establishment of this board and there was some surprise when the senate concurred in passing the bill yesterday, as that body had killed a similar bill last week.
Senators Brady, Cambern,Stannard and Potter led the fight against the bill, but the final roll call showed a vote of 22 votes for the bill and 16 against it.
There is an unconfirmed rumor that Governor Stubbs will veto the bill.
PROM COMMITTEE REPORTS
Chancellor Will Not Insist on His Ruling.
NUMBER 64
The junior class committee composed of Robert Lee, George Stucky, and Brownie Angle, who were to wait on the Chancellor in regard to the time of closing the Junior Prom, report that the event will probably be allowed to run its course, but that an effort will be made to close the event as soon after 3 o'clock as possible. Before any definite action can be taken in the matter a class meeting will have to be called at which the actions of the committee must be sanctioned. This meeting will be called in the near future.
Time Limit Set.
All those who intend trying out for the tennis team must have their matches played by Saturday. This is the time limit set for the completion of the indoor schedule. Owing to the fact that quite a number, of players have been unable to obtain the court in the gymnasium during their vacant hours, it has been further provided that from now on it is optional with the contestants whether they play their matches on the indoor court or on an outdoor court. As previously stated, however, the final scores must be handed in to Dr. Naismith or Howard Richardson, chairman of the tennis committee, by Saturday at the latest. The eight having the highest percentages of victories will be given places on the squad.
WILL DEBATE AT HARVARD
Frank Tyler Has Won a Place on Team.
Frank E. Tyler, of Clifton, who graduated from the University in 1908, has won a place on the Harvard Debating Team of six men. Three of these men will debate with Yale. Twenty-seven Harvard debaters contested the first tryout.
He was a member of the team that defeated Missouri seven years ago at Columbia. This is the last time Kansas has won a debate from Missouri. When Tyler graduated from the University, two years ago, he took the position of principal of the Abilene high school. He gave up this work to enter the Harvard Law School this year.
KANSAS VICTORY IS PREDICTED
COACH HAMILTON BELIEVES IT IS AN EVEN BREAK.
The Dope Favors Kansas in Tomorrow's Meet—Missouri May Have Some Surprises.
Tomorrow afternoon twenty-four track athletes, accompanied by Coach Hamilton and an enthusiastic bunch of rooters, will travel to Kansas City, where they will meet the Tigers for the eighth time in an indoor meet at Convention hall.
The team will leave on the special train at 1:45 o'clock and as soon as the men arrive at the Contes house in Kansas City they will at once retire to rest for the races in the evening. The first
in-door victory have never looked brighter than at present and the dope that has been deduced from the records made by the individuals on the two teams that will compete Friday night give the advantage to the Kansas athletes.
According to the rope the short runs and the hurdles will be won by Kansas, and the distance events will go to Missouri. However Coach Hamilton has a new man in the two-mile race to compete against Steele, who promises at least to make that veteran run his best race. Osborne has not had a great deal of experience however, in big races. In the 50-yard dash "Bobby" Roberts is expected to take the place of Haddock and win first place for the Kansas squad. The Woodbury brothers are booked to win the hurdles. However, Catron, the man who runs the low sticks for the Tiger team, promises to push

CAPTAIN HAMILTON.
Washburn and Baker May De-
cide Disputed Title.
Prof. P. F. Walker of the School of Engineering will speak before the Mechanical Engineering society this afternoon at 4:45 in Marvin hall. His subject will be "The Propelling Machinery of Ships."
Prof. Walker to Speak.
According to Coach Scherer of Baker University, there may be a game of basket-ball between the Baker five and the goal tossers at Washburn on the floor of Robinson gymnasium. Some time ago the Methodists won from Washburn and then later in the season were defeated by the Congregationalists. It was felt by the Bakerites that they were defeated under adverse circumstances and accordingly a challenge has been sent to Manager Driver asking for a third game to be played or the court at this University. If the game is scheduled, special trains will be run from both colleges here and we may expect to see some exciting times.
Woodbury and Captain Hamilton to the limit. In the quarter mile Bermond should win, and the half mile, mile, and two-mile events are also conceded to the Tigers.
Ammons has a good chance to take the first place in putting the sixteen-pound weight this year. He has been showing exceptional form in putting the shot and the Anderson brothers will be forced to throw the shot forty feet to defeat him.
Ever since this athletic relation with Missouri was assumed the Tigers have succeeded in defeating the Jayhawkers in the meet at the big hall and this year the rooters and dopsters at the University think that the change will come and that the squad that Coach Hamilton has chosen to make the trip to Kansas City Friday afternoon will tie the first knot in the Tiger's tail. In the last two years, several premier athletes have entered the University and as a result the standard of the track team has improved, and they have succeeded in defeating the Missouri squad in the out-door meet for the last two years. The prospects for the first
race, the fifty-yard dash, will be started at 8:15, and from that time the battle will continue till the relay race is run. What the result of the meet will be may be known only then. Both of the teams are confident of the victory and it is thought that this year the result of the meet will be closer than it has ever been in years past. None of the points are by any means made certain for either school and each event promises to be a fight to the finish.
In the high jump French will probably be pushed over six feet to leave the Tiger leaper, Nicholson, who has gone 5 feet, 10 inches, out of the running.
Coach W. O. Hamilton affirms that Kansas will win the meet, but he qualifies his statement with the stipulation that we enter the meet with an even break of the luck. "I think that the time has come for the Jayhawkers to take the lead in this indoor meet, and we stand the best chance of winning that we ever had in the history of the school. However, none of the events are certain for either school. I am not willing to concede anything to Missouri, and I don't see how they can concede anything to us."
COMMITTEE REPORTS ON APPROPRIATION
ACCEPTS HOUSE BILL WITHOUT AMENDMENTS.
Refuses to Grant the $50,000 for Hospital—Both Houses Act on Bill This Afternoon.
That the original house bill providing for the University appropriation for the next biennium will be accepted by the state legislature is almost a certainty. This afternoon the conference committee, composed of members from both houses, reached a conclusion and reported that they had accepted the house bill without any amendments. This bill is practically the same as that of the senate with the exception of the $50,000 for the hospital at Rosedale, which the senate provided. In general the bill allows the following appropriations: General maintenance for
1912 ... $413,820
General maintenance for
1913...$428,350
This allowance together with the various appropriations for upkeep, geological survey and other things brings the grand total for the biennium to $1,019,370. The bill provides for the return of laboratory fees to the University authorities.
Both houses will act on the report of the committee this afternoon and it is expected that the bill will be passed as recommended.
The $42,000 that was appropriated at the last biennium for the Administration building but never used because the material was not on the ground at the time the appropriation expired, was reappropriated for use in the construction of the new building.
KAPPAS WILL MOVE.
Sorority Will Make Its Home on Oread Avenue.

Prof. Henry Cope Will Speak.
Prof. Henry F. Cope of Chicago, secretary of the National Religious Educational association, will be the chapel speaker tomorrow morning. His subject will be "Wanted, Efficient Leaders." He will speak at vpers Sunday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock on "Is There an Intellectual Path way to the Religious Life?"
He will stay here till Monday, when he will go to Topeka to deliver several lectures at Washburn College. He will also speak here Sunday evening at two union church meetings on "Education and the New America." The first of these will be at 7:45 o'clock at the Methodist church. The other one will be immediately afterward at the Christian church.

The cause of democracy was well served in the Kansas Legislature the other day when Hon. Davis of Bourbon introduced a resolution in which the Chancellor of the University and the Presidents of the Agricultural College and the State Normal were referred to as "hired men!" No session of the Legislature is considered complete until this playful appellation has been applied and now that it has been done the Legislature is talking about adjournment. And Mr. Davis of Bourbon goes back to his constituents carrying his resolution as proof that his own work as "hired man" was well and faithfully done—that he spent no time snoozing in the hay-loft while the legislative alfalfa needed cutting.
It must be the freshmen's fault. The Missouri Valley Conference asks the student body to stay away from Kansas City for our annual football game, because you know—we're very,very boisterous. But they see no reason why we should not go to the big city for our annual track meet in the spring. Evidently there must be some great change come over the student body during football season and track time, that will allow for this difference in ruling. The second year men and the upper-classmen have had the experience. Must be that the Missouri
Valley Conference is over-solicitous of the first year men at the beginning of their school life.
Professor Corbin says that the "student activities" of American university life are unknown to the German schools. And this in a place where the facilities for much "student activity" number so many to the block.

CONGREGATIONAL GUILD
In response to a request from Prof. A. M. Wileox and W. L. Burdick, twenty-five Congregational students met at the Congregational church Sunday morning, to consider the forming of some organization which should have meetings at regular intervals. Edmund Cressman, as temporary chairman, stated the purpose of the meeting and outlined the nature of an organization which might be formed.
After some discussion the students decided to call their organization the K. U. Plymouth Guild. A meeting will be held Saturday evening in the Congregational church, when the organization will be permanently established. There will be games and other entertainment.
The election of officers for this semester resulted in the selection of Donald Martindell for president, Edmund Cressman and Helen Burdick for vice-presidents, Edward Chesky for treasurer and Constance McCammon for secretary.

COUNCIL PREPARES FOR STUDENTS' DAY
SPEAKERS FOR VARIOUS SCHOOLS WILL BE ELECTED
Freshmen Will Wear Caps Again on April Fool's Day—Will Have Official Removal.
Preparations were begun last evening at the meeting of the Men's Student Council for the Student's Day to be held on May 26. The president of the Council was instructed to confer with the presidents of the various schools who should conduct the election for the various speakers for that day. The college members of the Council will take charge of the meeting of the College students.
It is the intention of the Council to have all the representatives elected by March 17 in order that the speakers may have plenty of time to get new and original material. Each speaker will be asked to talk on matters primarily of concern to his school and its connection with the University.
The freshmen will be requested to put on their abbreviated caps again on the first of April. Such was the ruling of the Council last evening. It is probable that some ceremony will be arranged at the Students' Day for the official removal of the colored caps.

It is the intention of the grounds committee to improve the tees and greens and erect rustic benches for spectators and otherwise improve the course. After a home tournament, the team will play a match and a return with the teams of the Officers club at Leavenworth, and the Topeka Country club. With the coming of warmer weather the links will present an active and attractive scene. A few new members can still be accommodated.
Professor A. M. Sturtevant, assistant professor in the department of German, will spend the summer in Norway and Sweden, where he will make a special study of the Scandinavian language. He expects to spend most of his time in Copenhagen. He will be back in time for the fall

PICTURES IN TOMORROW.
Annual Board Reports Progress in Work.
Tomorrow will be the last day that senior pictures can be handed in for the 1911 Jayhawker. The final arrangements for the appearance of pictures in the Annual are being made. Group pictures and writeups may be handed in late as March 16. This will be the last of the material to be used except such as pertain to University athletics.
At present the board has sufficient material to finish the books, and all that remains to be done is the selection and arrangement of material on hand. Editor Overman said this morning that the board had been doing good work and that this year's production would fully equal the standards set by previous boards.

MILITARY COMPANY RECEIVED WARNING
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SATURDAY, MARCH 11, 1911
NUMBER 65
BREACHES OF DISCIPLINE MAY BE PUNISHED.
Captain Shifler Sends Letters to Members of Company Reminding Them of Their Duty.
The actions of certain of the members of the K. N. G. military company have led to a warning by C. R. Shiffler, captain of the company that their conduct may cause some fines to be assessed if the offenses are not discontinued and may eventually lead to a dish honorable discharge from the company. This last penalty carries with it the loss of all rights of citizenship under the United States government.
The breaches of discipline with which the soldiers are charged include absence from drill with out cause and the wearing of the uniforms to down town dances. The erring soldier is liable to a fine of from $1 to $5 for the first offense and from $2 to $10 for the second.
"Any enlisted man seen wearing or using government property other than on drill nights or when occasion demands it shall be investigated by the courts and a fine of from $2 to $10 be imposed." In both the above cases perseverence in the offense may lead to a dishonorable discharge from the company."
Some of the members of the military company have been absent from drill without good cause and are apparently not aware that they are dealing with the United States government.
About twenty men received letters from Captain Shifler yesterday urging them to be careful not to disgrace the uniform of the soldier.
The fact that a large number of reserve troops are at present being ordered to the Mexican border, further complicates matters for the University company would probably be the first of the reserve troops to go from Kansas.
PANORAMA COMPLETED
Prof. Dyche Is Puzzling Over Method of Labeling.
Two more groups are yet to be added to the panorama in the natural history museum, and it will then be completed. These two groups are Alaskan sheep and the musk ox. In addition to these two main groups, many smaller and less important animals will be added.
Professor Dyche, who has charge of this work, is undecided yet as to how he will label this strange collection. About the best plan that he has thought of so far is to have small photographs of the various divisions taken and the names printed on these. The photographs are there to be placed around the panorama. This plan will save the beauty of the scene and will in no way inconvenience the spectators.

NEED FOR LEADERS.
Professor Cope Discussed Ideal of Life.
What many students considered one of the best chapel speeches of the year was given yesterday morning by Professor Henry F. Cope of Chicago, secretary of the National Religious Educational association on the subject of the need for efficient leaders. Having frequently heard that state universities are godless and irreligious institutions, the speaker addressed himself vigorously to that statement. He maintained that a state university must inevitably be a religious institution whether it is conscious of it or not.
"To get our feet upon the facts of this life rather than the fancies of another life, is the first element which the state university should contribute to the training of leaders," said Professor Cope. "We owe a religious obligation to our day and we begin to discharge it when we get our feet on the facts of life."
"Good habits are contagious and can be obtained just as truly, and I believe a little easier than bad habits. Are you fit to live, not are you ready to die is the most important question," said Professor Cope. "The most religious prayer that a man can make is that he may be something. It is a great thing to recognize the possibility of being more and more useful to his fellow men."
"What is your motive for attending this University?" continued Professor Cope. "Are you seeking professional training merely that you may exploit the public? Are you seeking a life on Easy street? If you consider this world an orange to be sucked by you, you will find that it will hand you a citrus of a different variety."
In closing Professor Cope said that students should want to have something worth giving to the world. The leaders of the world are those who have come that others may have life and have it more abundantly.
The Good Government club met Wednesday evening at the Sigma Chi house and elected eleven new members. These mer will be initiated at the Beta house on Thursday, March 23.

Golf Club Notice.
RELAY WON MEET FOR THE TIGERS
All members are requested to keep daily score cards and turn them in to the secretary to serve as data for estimating the handicaps for the April meet.
IN CLOSE CONTEST MISSOURI WON 451/2 TO 391/2.
In Brilliant Meet Full of Surprises, Jayhawkers Lost for Eighth Consecutive Time.
In one of the hardest fights that has ever been witnessed in Convention hall at Kansas City the Kansas track team lost the eighth annual indoor meet to the strong Missouri squad last night, when the relay, the deciding factor of the meet, resulted in a victory for the Tiger team. The final score was $45\frac{1}{2}$ to $39\frac{1}{2}$. The excitement of the rooters during the last lap of the relay has never been exceeded in any previous contest of any nature whatever between the two schools. Before this last race the score was: Missouri $40\frac{1}{2}$, Kansas $39\frac{1}{2}$.
Kansas took the lead at the first event of the evening when 'Bobby' Roberts won the 50- yard dash. Missouri took second in this event.
Johnson, the tall marathoner of the Tiger team, evened the score by winning the mile run. Watson wormed Steele out of second place in the finish. The first surprise of the evening camo when Nicholson took the first place in the high hurdles for the Tigers. C. Woodbury jumped the gun on the start and was set back one yard. Hamilton won the second place in the quarter mile, finishing five yards behind Bermond, who won the race in 53 and 3.5 seconds.
In the two-mile run, Fisher took second place and Steele won first, time 10.7. Osborne took the lead at the start of the race and ran the first quarter mile almost in quarter mile time. Johnson, who ran with Steele, made several attempts to go to the second place and set the pace, but Fisher out sprinted him at every attempt keeping him at his elbow for several laps of the race. Toward the end of the first mile Steele moved up to the second place and tried to take the lead from Osborne, but after he had succeeded in obtaining the lead Osborne sprinted and left him behind. Before the first half of the second mile Steele again took the lead and maintained it to the end of the race. Osborne was forced to quit. Fisher beat Johnson on the final spurt and took second.
Anderson of Missouri took first place in the shot put and Ammons second.
C. Woodbury won the pole vault at 10 feet six inches, and Parker of Kansas and Stevens of Missouri tied for second place In an exhibition, Woodbury then cleared the bar at 11 feet, thus breaking the indoor record French was forced only to five feet and nine inches to defeat his opponent. He then tried to break his old record in Convention hall, made last year in the K.C.A.C invitation, but failed.
The expectations of the Kansas rooters were fulfilled when the Woodbury brothers won both places in the low hurdles. These eight points increased the Kansas score to $39\frac{1}{2}$ points and the
result of the meet hung on the relay race.
Catron won the toss and took his place at the pole, but on the first curve of the track H. Woodbury forged ahead and maintained a slight lead for the entire distance. Black kept the lead that he received from Woodbury and on the last straightaway increased it slightly. G. Smith ran the race for Kansas that promised to win the meet. He increased the lead to fifteen yards and the final struggle of the evening lay between Captain Hamilton and Bermond of the Tiger team. Hamilton maintained his lead over the crack quarter miler for the first two laps, but on the third and last time around the track Bermond swiftly closed the distance between himself and his opponent and on the final stretch sprinted ahead and finished easily.
The summary of the reet is:
50-yard dash—Roberts, Kansas, first; Catron, Missouri, second. Time—53-5.
One mile run—Johnson, Missouri first; Watson, Kansas, second. Time=4:33.4.
440 yards run—Bermond, Missouri; first; Hamilton, Kansas second. Time----53:3:5.
55 yards high hurdles—Nicholson, Missouri, first; C. Woodbury, Kansas, second. Time—73-5.
Half mile run—Bermond, Missouri, first; Johnson, Missouri second. Time—2:02:2.5.
55 yards low hurdles—C. Woodbury, Kansas, first. H. Woodbury, Kansas, second. Time—6:2:5.
Two-mile run—Steele, Missouri first; Fisher, Kansas, second. Time-10.07.
Running high jump—French, Kansas, first; Nicholson, Missouri, second. Height-5 feet 9 inches.
Putting sixteen pound shot—E. L. Anderson, Missouri, first. Ammons, Kansas, second. Distance 38 feet 3-4 inch.
Pole vault—C. Woodbury, Kansas, first. Parker, Kansas, second; Stevens, Missouri, tied for second. Height—10 feet 6 inches. One mile relay—Catron, ShuCK Robinson, and Bermond, Missouri first. H. Woodbury, Black, G. Smith, and Hamilton, Kansas, second. Time—3:37.
Reporter's Notes.
The box that Bermond and Johnson formed to put Patterson out of the half mile race was almost perfect.
Kansas showed herself to be the superior in the short dashes and field events with thirty and one-half points, while Missouri took only seventeen and one-half points.
Bermond, the brilliant quartermiler of the Tiger squad, won the most points for the Missouri team, with firsts in the quarter mile,and half mile. It was his fast race as the end of the relay that won the meet.

Charles Woodbury of the Kansas team made the highest individual score by winning first place in the low hurdles and pole vault and second in the high hurdles, making a total of thirteen points to his credit.

THE BOARD OF REGENTS.
The recent action of the State Legislature in establishing one Board of Regents for the State University, the State Agricultural College, the State Normal schools, the School for the Deaf, and the School for the Blind, possesses some element of merit, but the several objectionable features that are so obvious completely offset the good that may acerue from such a decision. The supporters of the measure contend that it will place the various institutions upon a more business, like basis, that it will result in having the requests for appropriations for the various schools placed before the Legislature in better shape. The question then arises as to whether these matters are of sufficient importance to offset the difficulties that are bound to come under the new ruling.
In the first place, the bill provides that the governor shall appoint three members of the board; no two shall go out of office at one time. It is easily seek that the governor has in his hands the power of changing the personnel of the majority of the board during his tenure of office. This power will probably work for good at all times, but there is a possibility that in the years to come, our state executive may be of a mind hostile to one or many of our state institutions and the appointing of these regents with its accompanying power, will place in his hands a means for administering effective and in many cases probably disasterous blows to our state schools. This lack of permanency of the Board of Regents appears to be one of its most pernicious faults.
Another provision of the bill is that not more than one member at any one time is to be an alumnus of any of the institutions controlled by the board. Analysis of this provision shows that we must either take non-graduates of our state institutions or we must go to the other states for the majority of the men to control the state schools. The paradox of graduating men from the state schools and then practically barring them from governing their Alma Mater is ridiculous and absurd.
Missouri seems to have the Indian sign on Kansas. With the best track team Kansas has ever had, Missouri nosed out a victory and caused the eighth successive defeat of Kansas in eight years. The story of the contest could be written with a profusion of "ifs," but the fact is that were beaten by a foe stronger than ourselves. The prediction that Kansas Woodbury Missouri was not exactly fulfilled, but the Jayhawkers came nearer to reading the funeral rites over the Tigers than she ever has in the history of track relations. The University is proud of her track team.

CHAPEL DATES POPULAR.
Grinds Come Forth to Face the Camera.
Now is the time to get your chapel dates. Why? Haven't you seen the amateur photographers chasing around the campus during chapel time? They are getting pictures for the Annual, and if you want to get your picture in the publication, get a date and accidentally run across these photographers. A date with one of the very popular girls is, of course, to be preferred, for these are the kind that the Annual wants and you are more liable to get your picture taken then. Most of the upper classmen know this and some of them who have been in their shell all year are now coming forth and may be seen strolling about the campus any day during chapel. Have you seen them? Or are you one of them?

PLANS UNDER WAY FOR THE MAY FETE
WORK ON PLAYS WILL BE BEGIN AT ONCE.
Mrs. Wilber, Miss Fish, and Miss Morrow Will Assist With the Entertainment.
At a meeting held Wednesday night at the home of Beulah Murphy, work was begun in earnest on plans for the May fete, which will probably be held May 13. Miss Nadia Thomas, who has charge of the fete arrangements, read a program which she suggested might be carried out. The program included a pageant morris dances, old English plays, the crowning of the May Queen and the dance of the May Queen and her attendants. Other dances and drills may be added later.
A meeting of the girls will be called in the near future so that a May Queen may be elected. It is also desired by those in charge of the fete that some man offer his services as a jester.
It is planned to give the fet Saturday, May 13. The entertainment will last the entire afternoon, and booths will be furnished by each of the four sororities so that the crowd may be provided with refreshments. Three plays will be given in the course of the afternoon. The old Wives tale by the Phi Psis, Pyramus and Thise by the Betas and a St, George Play by the Pi Upsilons.
Mrs. F. A. Wilber has offered her services to the committee in securing old English songs and dance music for the various stunts, Miss Mary Fish will assist with the dances, and Miss Helen Morrow will direct the rehearsal of the plays. Any one who wishes to take part in the fete should inform Miss Thomas. A tag day will be held soon to raise money for costuming and other expenses connected with the fete.

THE JEWISH CITIZEN
Jacob Billikopt Declares He is Desirable.
"It is not the condition in which the immigrant comes that determines his usefulness, but the power he shows to rise above his condition," said Jacob Billikopt, of the Jewish Educational Institute, of Kansas City, Mo., in an address at the Y. M. C. A. meeting Thursday evening on the subject, "Is the Russian Jew a Desirable Immigrant?" In the course of his talk he discussed the great advantages made by these people when given a fair chance in this country. Because of their great ability to adapt themselves to various situations the Russian Jews are, Mr. Billikopt maintains, a menace to American workingmen for only a short time, because in a few years these immigrants also are organized into trade unions. "Furthermore, by dint of energy and perseverence they made possible ble the creation of new industries," said Mr. Billikopt, "and industrially speaking, the Jew is far from undesirable."
The speaker then quoted data in regard to the Jews both in Russia and New York to disprove the idea that Jews possess a dislike and inaptitude for manual labor. They are by no means lagging in intellectual pursuits but have an intense desire to study and discuss local questions. Illustrating this by conditions in Kansas City, Mr. Billikopt said, "In our Institute you will find every night from a hundred to a hundred and twenty-five men and women from all parts of the city eagerly devouring whatever information is imparted to them. Their progress is remarkable and their enthuiasm for America knows no bounds."
To prove that his people appreciate what is done for them and that they value the differences between Russia and this country Mr. Billikopt quoted the sentiments of boys who had been in the United States but a short time. The education of the children also hastens the breaking up of the natural tendency to clanishness among their parents.
The excellent work accomplish by the Kansas City Jewish Institute, in providing cheap bathing facilities for the poor, has had great influence in causing the city to appropriate money for a free public bath. Mr. Billikopt closed his address with a quotation from Jacob Reis in regard to the valuable material for citizenship presented by the Russian Jew.
Girls Learn Photography.
The problem incident to the congestion of the Jews in the East Side of New York is fully recognized by Mr. Billikopt and it is for this reason that he encourages their immigration through the port of Galveston and then supplements that work by doing much in Kansas City to secure employment for these men. He emphasized the fact that the Galveston Bureau was not encouraging immigration indiscriminately, but was securing a good class of people.
Congregational Party.
The K. U. Plymouth Guild will give a party this evening at 8 o'clock in the Congregational church. The organization is for the purpose of promoting acquaintanceship among the Congregational students. This is the first party, but from now on monthly meetings will be held. All University Congregational students are invited to attend.
The girl behind the camera is a frequent sight in the vicinity of Columbia University. The introduction of a department of photography in the school of industrial arts has brought out many women as well as men desirous of taking up this profession which nowadays holds out strong inducements to the once handicapped sex. There is laboratory work, and instruction in portraiture, illustration, and lantern slide making. Saturday afternoon sees the class out for field work on the campus, along the street, and the river.—Collier's Weekly.

Is there a person in the University of Kansas who thinks that this institution is not democratic? If so he would have quickly seen the folly of his idea, had he viewed the grass plot in front of Spooner library Tuesday afternoon. There were eight fat hogs (not library hogs) of Poland China stock, gazing vacantly at the surrounding valleys and giving cultured grunts of satisfaction at the splendid view, as they tore up the turf in the triangle. Whether they came up to join the rooters' club on its trip to the track meet Friday, or whether they read of the intellectual sparrows that are making their home under the eaves of Fraser, and decided to take on a little higher education themselves, is hard to tell. When Gurth and Wamba, who were driving the herd, tried to urge them down the stony slope towards Adams street, the swine refused to travel in the road, but walked serenely down the walk. It is well for the Poland Chinas that they left, for several of the colored janitors had their eyes on them and were figuring on giving the University—not a theoretical but a real "pork barrel."
Chemical Club Speakers.
Three students, Harold Shaw, Robert Hackman, and Charles Spilman, spoke before the Chemical club Wednesday afternoon in the Chemistry building.
Mr. Shaw spoke on "The Artificial Silk Industry." The industry, according to the speaker, is carried on principally in France and has been developed during the past three years.
Mr. Spilman told of "The Economy of Condensed Milk." The chief economy, according to the speaker, lies in the fact that milk is more plentiful in summer time and can thus be saved for the winter.
Mr. Hackman spoke on "The Analysis of Fertilizers." He told of the methods employed in a factory at Kansas City where he worked before re-entering the University this semester.

Preaching service at 11 a.m.; topic; "Seoffers, Bluffers and the Zealous;" Sunday school at 12 o'clock; stereopticon pictures and address by Dr. Newport at opening services; at 6 p.m. a tea will be served in the church by the young people, to be followed by an address by Prof. Carl Becker of the University, "The Significance of Catholicism and Protestantism in European History."

SMOKER TO BE HELD ON MARCH 25TH
AT CLASS MEETING YESTERDAY SENIORS MADE PLANS.
Enthusiasm Shown for Reunion in 1916—Cap and Gown Committee Reports.
Much interest in the reunion of this year's senior class in 1916 was manifested at the class meeting held yesterday after chapel. Robert Johnston, chairman of the social committee, explained the plans of the class and announced that there would be a smoker for all of the men of the senior class on Saturday evening, March 25, in Ecke's hall. Several of the stunts that were given at the Pan-Hellenic some time ago will be repeated and the committee is working on some envel stunts to be pulled off on that evening. The idea of the whole movement is to get the seniors interested in the work and as soon as the girls get organized it is the plan to have a series of entertainments at which enthusiasm will be worked up. The price of admission for the men's smoker will be twenty-five cents, which is just enough to cover the actual expenses for the entertainment.
William Hughes, chairman of the cap and gown committee, announced that arrangements had been made for the caps and gowns for either four or ten days and it is desired that all those who desire caps and gowns will leave a notice in the Jayhawker box at the check stand at once.
The invitation committee has decided to have both leather back and paper back invitations the former to cost three dollars and the latter two dollars per dozen. Members of the committee will be at the check stand for the next two weeks to take all orders and it is desired that all seniors attend to this matter at once as the list must be sent to the printers soon.
BUCKING THE SUGAR TRUST
A Vermonter Exchanges Maple Sugar for Education.
The failures of others have not discouraged Bradley A. Thomas, a junior in the School of Law, from Morrisville Vermont.
There are a great variety of ways for a student to work his way through the University, but there are many who lack the grit to compete with a corporation like the sugar trust.
He has been soliciting orders for maple sugar at the various fraternity and boarding houses in this city. He takes orders and then supplies his trade from his home town, which is situated in the heart of the maple sugar district of Vermont.
Mr. Thomas believes that he can establish a good maple sugar business here and help pay his expenses without a great loss of time.
Junior Class Notice.
A meeting of the junior class has been called by President Arch McKinnon for next Monday at noon in chapel. At the meeting the report of the junior committee on the prom will be received and voted upon.
Dr. Naismith, professor of physical education, will speak in chapel Tuesday morning. His subject will be "Professionalism in Athletics," and will tell of the reasons for it and the effects.
Yes, it is more than a month until Easter. But do you remember how the Glove and Neckwear stocks are always depleted several days before.

Freshman Pan-Hellenic.
The annual Freshman Pan-Hellenic舞 was given in Fraternal Aid hall last night. As Uncle Jimmie Green was late, the grand march was led by A. W. Hosier and Myra Rogers, and George Edwards and Adrienne Atkinson. William Cain and Harriet Merriam, and James Leidigh and Helen Thompson gave out the programs. The programs, which were printed in green, contained the names of the officers and members of the Freshman Pan-Hellenic Council.
Nearly all the girls present were freshmen, making the dance strictly a freshman event. The twenty dances and two extras were run off by Hall's five-piece orchestra of Topeka by 2 o'clock. It was a noticeable feature that the dancers started when the music began. There was no time lost in waiting for someone to "start it."
The refreshments were served in three shifts. Sandwiches, coffee, salad, ice cream and cake composed the meal.

KANSAS ATHLETES WILL ENTER MEET
EIGHT TRACK MEN WILL GO TO ST. LOUIS.
NUMBER 66
Coach Hamilton Expects to Win the Relay—Two Men Will Enter from Scratch.
Eight men of the varsity track team accompanied by Coach W. O. Hamilton and Manager Lansdon will leave for Kansas City Friday night where they will take the train to St. Louis to enter the handicap invitation meet held by the Missouri Athletic club of St. Louis there Saturday night. The indoor meet will be held in the armory of the First regiment. The men who will make the trip are Roberts, French, the Woodbury brothers, Hamilton, Smith, Black and Watson. Roberts will probably run in the fifty yard dash from the scratch,French will enter the high jump from scratch, and Charles Woodbury will enter the pole vault without a handicap. Watson will compete in the 1,000 yards run and it is expected that he will be given a good handicap, since he has no record in that event. This will be the first time that he will run that distance in a meet. The men who will run in the relay are H. Woodbury,Black G. Smith, and Hamilton. The chances of the Kansas team winning the relay are good and Coach Hamilton's men expect to return with a number of the points of the meet.
The Kansas City Athletic club will hold an indoor invitation handicap meet in Convention hall on Saturday night, March 25, and the present plan is to enter about twenty or twenty-five men from the University in these events. Kansas scored high at this meet last year and it is thought that the chances of a Kansas victory this year are good.
Coach W. O. Hamilton expects to have his athletes out doors for practice work on MeCook field in a short time. "The weather is hardly warm enough yet for permanent out-door work, but even now the men are working on the boards on the south side of the gymnasium," said the coach yesterday afternoon. This spring the men will have warm water at the club house on MeCook field and the men will be able to work on the cinder path earlier than last season."
The cinder path this spring will be better than it has ever been before in the history of track athletics at the University. Two car loads of cinders were hauled to the field this winter and there they were mixed with the proper amount of dirt and a new bed two inches thick has been laid on the track. This will be rolled with a large steam roller and treated to make one of the finest cinder paths in the west.
The Greek Symposium will hold its monthly meeting Friday afternoon at 3:30 in the Greek room of Fraser hall. Prof. M. W. Sterling will speak on "Demosthenes as Man and Dramatist." Prof. A. M. Wilcox will speak on "The Statues of Sophocles and Demosthenes." John Shea, a graduate student, will speak on "Sophocles as Man and Orator."
COLORADO TEAM CHOSEN
Men to Debate at Boulder on April 12.
Prof. G. A. Gesell has decided definitely on the team that will debate with the University of Colorado at Boulder, April 12. A H. Fast, a middle law from Baldwin, and A. O. Andrew, a senior law from Gardner are the two men who will represent Kansas in the western debate.
A. H. Fast is a graduate of Baker University and is widely experienced in debate. He was chosen last year to represent Northwestern against Chicago. The other member of the team, A. O. Andrew, has had much experience in debate and public speaking. This year he was the man selected by the faculty of the School of Law to read a paper before the State Bar Association.
Kansas will support the negative of the question: "Resolved that the short ballot should be adopted in state, county and municipal elections."
TENNIS TEAMS CHOSEN.
Four Men Selected After Finals Yesterday.
Monday afternoon the finals of the tennis tournament were played and the following squad picked. Their percentage was as follows: Nees, 889; Wilson, .800; Rohrer, .786; Allen, .770; Richardson, .750; Hawes, .750; Motz, .667; Uhrlaub, .500.
The first four men will comprise the team. The team will make four trips. Baker will be played early in April. Oklahoma. Nebraska and Washburn will also be played this spring. The games at Washburn will be for the championship of the state They will be played the second Friday and Saturday in May.
The Kansas tennis squad's success is due in no small part to the indoor practise and this year there has been more than usual. There will be a meeting held Wednesday at 12:15 in room 110, Fraser. It is desired that all eight men be present.

$50,000 TO BE USED FOR NEW HOSPITAL
OLD APPROPRIATION WILL BE USED.
Erection of New Building Will Be Started at Once—Strong on the Committee.
At a meeting of the Board of Regents of this University yesterday it was decided to use the $50,000 appropriated by the legislature in 1909 for a hospital, at once for the hospital at Rosedale. At the last session of the legislature $50,000 was allowed the University for a hospital, but in view of the fact that the question as to whether this hospital was to be located in Rosedale or in Lawrence, the money was never used.
When the present legislature refused to grant the $100,000 for the University hospital the Regents decided to take advantage of the former grant and to start the erection of a structure at Rosedale at once The time limit for using this money is July 1, and at the meeting yesterday it was decided to start work immediately.
Regents Hopkins and Cambern and Chancellor Strong were appointed as a committee to superintend the work and to make plans for the completion of the structure.
Y. M. C. A. TO GIVE PARTY

Records Explosion Here.
At 9:22 o'clock Friday morning, six minutes after the magazine explosion occurred at Pleasant Prairie, Wis., the University seismograph recorded the arrival of the shock in Lawrence. The five magazines which exploded contained 280 tons of dynamite and 100,000 kegs of giant powder. Hardly a house within the radius of five miles of Pleasant Prairie is habitable as a result of the explosion.
NO CANDIDATES NAMED
School Orators Shy About Coming Forward.
The Student Council has designated next Friday, March, 17, as election day from each school when a speaker is to be elected. As yet no candidate has anounced himself.
The speakers are supposed to address the students assembled on the campus upon the relation of their school to the University, but that does not signify they are to be barred from expressing their views on the student activities or anything of outside interest.
The Athletic board will grant the letters in baseball, basket-ball and track on this day also. Besides the various schools will compete in tugs of war and pitching for the crack, horseshoes, track meets, baseball games and numerous other sports.
On "Students Day," May 26, besides speeches from the various schools, the program will consist of short sketches given by the dramatic clubs, musical selections by the band and the glee club.
The Student Council will have charge of the affair on that day and is now arranging the program. The matter of getting a holiday upon that day has not been put up to the Chancellor, but as it was formerly customary to grant a holiday upon this day, it is believed that a holiday can be secured.
K. N. G. RECEIVES ORDERS.
University Militia May Go to Mexico.
Last night Captain C. R. Shifler of the K. N. G. military company of the University, notified the men in his company to prepare all their equipment for a hasty departure from Lawrence. Monday morning Capt. Shifler received an order from General Martin at Topeka to be in readiness to make the trip to the Mexican frontier at an instant's notice. General Martin says that he expects to receive an order any moment from the War Department at Washington commanding him to mobilize all the militia in Kansas so that they may be hurried to the scene of action.
Phi Beta Pi Banquet.
During the past week the company has been practicing guard duty, skirmish work and target drill. The captain announced today that on April 12, the most rigid examination of this year would be held.
The local chapter of the Phi Beta Pi medical fraternity and the chapter of Medical College of Kansas City held their annual founders' day banquet at Kansas City Friday night. Twenty members from here and the six from Rosedale were present. The banquet was held in the Baltimore hotel. Covers were laid for one hundred. In the afternoon at 2 o'clock initiation was held for six practicing doctors from Kansas.
The local chapter was founded last spring and is called the Alpha Iota. The first chapter of the national organization was founded at Pittsburg, Pa., in 1891.
STATE SCHOOLS TO REMAIN SEPARATE
GOVERNOR VETOED BILL AT NOON TODAY.
Present Boards of Regents Will Remain in Control—No Provision Made to Pay Them.
Governor W. R. Stubbs vetoed the bill providing for a single board of administration for all the educational institutions of the state, at 12:30 today. The governor has had the bill under consideration ever since it was passed last week. He called many conferences discussing the provisions of the bill and its probable effect upon the institutions, but until his formal veto of the act today had refused to make any statement as to whether he would sign it or not.
The veto of the bill means that for the present the institutions will be governed by their Board of Regents as before. It is understood that the governor favors a single board and will make an effort to have the boards meet together and transact the business of the state institutions as one board if it can be done legally.
An interesting question brought up by the veto of the bill concerns the mileage and per diem of the Regents. The legislature passed a law putting them out of existence and of course made no appropriation for paying them.
Governor Stubbs doubtless was strongly influenced in his decision by the replies received to a number of lengthy telegrams sent out from Topeka for the purpose of learning what the experience of other states had been regarding single boards of control. The opinion of educators all over the Middle West was that the plax would prove a failure. It is understood that the plan has resulted in lowering the standards of the Universities of Iowa and Indiana.
On the other hand, powerful influence within the state was brought upon the governor to sign the law. Although the bill was supposed to have been drawn up as a means of centralizing the educational system, a "joker" in it provided that the board of administration should have power to separate branch schools from the parent institutions. This is supposed to be for the benefit of the Pittsburg normal, which has been trying to declare its independence of the main school at Emporia.
All the heads of state institutions were opposed to the bill which they believed was too sketchy to work well when applied and provided salaries so small that competent men could not be secured to serve on the board.
J. F. Mackey, the Ash Grove fellow, in chemistry, will speak before the Chemical club Wednesday afternoon at 5 o'clock in the Chemistry building. His subject will be "Cementing Materials."

THE THALIANS.
The King Bees have organized. We are not ready to state whether or not they are would-be's, but the fact remains that we have in our midst the Thalians, which is made up of the A1, creme de creme dancers that daily lift their classic pedals up Oread's slope. These Algernons and Percys have long felt a mutual admiration for the grace that each possesses on the dance floor, and this affection broke out last week in the form of another society.
But what can we expect in a University life such as ours? In the great struggle for social existence the Thalians have emerged triumphant and stand, each with a little halo on his head and a slipper bag in his hand, high, high up above the rest, living and shining examples of the best in life. Truly it must be said that the Thalians represent the survival of the fittest.
No matter whether or not we believe in suffrage for women, the visit of Sylvia Pankhurst to this city is attended with much interest. She represents a militant type of woman who is struggling for a cause and the hardships and the sacrifices that she has been called on to endure should assure her an interested if not sympathetic audiences when she speaks here.

The members of the legislature showed its appreciation of the good work that has been done for the educational institutions of the state by Chancellor Frank Strong, by breaking forth in applause when his name was casually mentioned in connection with the board of control bill. This was an unusual expression on the part of the house and it will be appreciated by the people of the state who have followed the course of Chancellor Strong since he became the head of the University. From the start Chancellor Strong avoided the old method of asking for a whole lot of things that were not needed in order to swell the budget, so that when scaled down it would be large enough to cover the needs of the school, and in its stead he made clean cut demands for just what was needed, no more and no less. It was a new thing with the legislature and it proved so satisfactory that it has since been followed by other state institutions. Knowing the needs of the growing institution Dr. Strong has not hesitated to ask for large appropriations, but he has convinced the people of the state that every dollar appropriated, has been and will be wisely and economically expended.—Lawrence Daily Journal World.

Rev. C. F. Wishart of Pittsburg, Pa., spoke in chapel Monday morning on the "Necessity of Having a Vision." He asserted that the man of vision has been vindicated, for vision goes along with the practical side of life.
"Where there is no vision, the people perish, and when there is no people the vision perishes. We must think in order to live, and we have to think according to our brain laws, for the laws of living cannot be mathematically and scientifically worked out."

ONLY BEST DANCERS BE LONG TO EXCLUSIVE CLUB.
Thalians Will Give Four Dances This Spring—Will Be Models of Etiquette.
Certain members of the student body, realizing that the University needs an organization to set the pace for society, have found a "Thalian Club," whose members are supposedly the best and most artistic dancers in school. When interviewed upon the name of the club, Solon Emery, one of the charter members, explained that "Thalian" was discovered by a careful search through the dictionary. It is taken from Thalia ,the Greek muse of dancing. It is the purpose of the Thalians to give a series of formal dances, which will be correct from every point of social etiquette. Parties are to be held March 25, April 22, May 20 and 27. In order to give the University an idea of what an up-to-date informal party is like, the Thalians will wear light trousers and blue serge coats at the last dance.
The membership of the club is limited to thirty. The members are: William Hamner, Solon Emery, Samuel Stahl, Joseph Connell, Harold Wilson, Robert Lee, James Boring, Ben Marshall, Findley Graham, William Wellhouse, Clarence Connor, Orville Warner, Maleolm McNaughton, Robert Rowland, John Welch, Vance Day, Doc Minor, Claude Sowers, William Cain, John Franks, A.

WILL PLAY HASKELL NEXT SATURDAY THIRTY BALL TOSSERS OUT FOR PRACTICE.
Freshmen Will Report for Practice to Manager Lansdon Next Monday.
The first baseball game of the season will be played on McCook field Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock when the ball tossers of Captain Haller and Manager W. C. Lanson will meet the braves from Haskell. The game will be a practice contest and for the purpose of aiding in choosing the best material for the team. No admission will be charged for admittance to the game.
About thirty men came out for the first practice on Monday afternoon and the showing was very satisfactory to the coaches. The pitchers are working in good form and many new men who play the real article made their initial appearance in varsity line-up. The men who practiced yesterday were divided into two squads to play a scrub game. "Jim" Smtih worked well behind the bat and the pitchers that look good to the manager are Locke, Farrell, Buzick, and Goff. Goff struck out six men in three innings.
Manager Lansdon wishes the men who intend to try out for the freshman team this spring to report to him at his office in the gymnasium and prepare for their first practice on Monday. A diamond will be put in shape on the golf links south of the varsity field and they will play there at the opening of the season. As soon as the freshman team is organized they will play games with the varsity team every afternoon.

Mr. Howard is manager of the Commerce Trust building of Kansas City. His subject will be "Management of Office Buildings."

Marriage of College Women
It is brought out in the Wellesley College Alumnae Register that fewer than one-third of the graduates marry, but this does not prove anything, as those who did not marry would probably not have done so even had they had no college education. Dr. Mary Robert Smith, of California, has made some investigations in regard to the college girl that are interesting. The college women marry later in life at the average of 27, it would seem. They have more boys than girls, and about as many children as women who do not marry until that age and have not gone to college. The women who took honors in college had slightly more children than the rank and file. Three-quarters of the men who attend coeducational institutions marry the women of their colleges.

Y.M.C.A. PLANSFOR MISSION COURSES
WHOLE MISSION FIELD TO BE COVERED.
Professor Blackmar and Doctors Payne and Wilber Will Help City Problems Discussed.
The University Y. M. C. A. is planning a series of mission courses to begin the week of March 19, and lasting six weeks. The foreign work department has issued an attractive booklet which will be distributed among the men of the University this week, fully describing the work of the department and the courses to be given.
Last year over 28,000 American students were in mission study. Ten million dollars were spent on American missionaries, $133,761 of which amount was given by college students. Thirty lectures by specialists on missions will be offered in five courses, as follows:
I. Men and Missions.
By. W. T. Ellis. Mr. Ellis is a layman, a newspaper man of New York city, who was sent out by a group of business men to investigate conditions and needs in the mission fields. This book is the report of his investigation. It is a strong, virile presentation of conditions as he saw them.
Leader, H. C. Herman ,general secretary. Monday evenings, 7:00 to 8:00; Meyers hall.
2. City Problems.
This course is a statement of the great problems of the city that are pressing for solution today. They are discussed by a recognized authority, both in the state and nation, on such questions. These lectures will deal with the problems of vice and crime; the care of the dependents; the social work of the churches; parks and playgrounds, etc.
Leader, Professor Frank W. Blackmar, Ph.D. Sunday afternoon, 2:30, Myers hall. Five lectures.

STUDENTS LISTEN TO SUFFRAGETTE
LARGEST CHAPEL CROWD SINCE FOOTBALL SEASON.
Sylvia Pankhurst Tells Why Englishwomen Are Interested—About College Women.
Sylvia Pankhurst is a small unpretentious looking woman. She appeared on the platform this morning in a modest gray suit. Over her shoulders was a large black scarf pinned at the throat with a large green and purple pin with the motto "Votes for Women." Her hair parted in the middle and she wore a large soft, white straw hat, whose brim gave a sympathetic jerk every time the speaker brought out an emphatic point. In her left hand she held one of her yellow gloves. She wore the other. Her voice was typically feminine and she talked with impressive earnestness.
She said this morning:
"Many people wish to know why we women of England are so much in earnest in the suffrage movement. It is because we are fighting against the present unjust discrimination against women, against the unfair wage system under which women suffer but mostly because we believe that men and women should be on equal terms in the political as well as the social world. In 1865 women were not allowed in coeducational schools and those who suggested that women should have any political rights at all were called the 'shricking sister hood.'
"If you women of this country do not carry on the battle for owmen suffrage until you obtain complete political rights you are unworthy of such great Americans as Mrs. Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony and Lucy Stone who have gained for you such rights as you enjoy at present. The college women are better equipped to carry on the fight than the women of the industrial world. Many more opportunities are open to you than to them. I deprecate this criticism by the women of the upper classes concerning their more unfortunate sister. They say, 'If she had more money than she has now, she would spend it for nothing but clothes.' That is none of our business. It is easier for you to help them than for them to help themselves.
"I would ask you men of the University, 'in competing in classes with the girls do you always beat them?' If you do conditions here are decidedly different from those in our Eiglish colleges. When I went to college the men didn't beat me nor did they beat my sisters. If we have equal brains and are forced to bear the burdens of citizenship why should we not enjoy the privileges of citizenship?
"I come from the midst of a movement that is the greatest one of the present time. But in spite of the fact that English women are so intensely interested in woman suffrage they will not gain as many rights if they are successful as you will. There are property qualifications in England that will bar them from participation in politics. The proportion of votes will only be two million women to six million men, but even now we have made the men of England realize the importance of woman suffrage as they have never done in a thousand years."
"The college woman will be a determining factor in the success of the women's suffrage movement," said Miss Pankhurst in an interview this morning. "I find that in all of the large institutions of learning for women, the percentage of those accepting the idea increases the longer these women remain in college. As Wellesley, where I spoke recently, 85 per cent of the senior girls took up the couse."
"Besides having a number of prominent women in England enlisted in the work, the women who work in the mills and factories are an element that brings the movement to a common basis."
Miss Pankhurst is an enthusiast. Her work is her life and her every action breathes an interest for equal suffrage. "It is my belief that from America must come the leaven that will give unequality with man," she said. "The woman who votes will make he best mother and it is in the homes of both the rich and poor that the spirit for cleanness in political life and a patriotism must come."
Miss Pankhurst came to Lawrence directly from San Francisco, and will leave today for Sansas City.
WILL CHOOSE MAY QUEEN.
Senior Girls Also Arrange for a Social.
At the meeting of the senior girls Wednesday noon in the chapel, arrangements were made or a social in Robinson gymnasium. The date was not set, but a committee composed of Editi Willis, chairman, Lillian Miller and Lois Stevens, will arrange for the day.
There will be another meeting of the senior class girls tomorrow noat at 12:15 in Room 110. The May queen will be chosen at this time and the various committees will be appointed.
Tomorrow the speakers for the annual "Student Day" will be elected. In the Engineering School there have been several caucuses and the contest will probably be between Mike Lynch, George Russell, Henry Hoffman, and Mat Graham. In the College the only candidate to announce himself thus far is W. M. Land.. Evidently the speech in chapel this morning made an impression on the laws, for it is reported that at their meeting tomorrow they will probably elect as their representative Kathleen Calloway.
Will Elect Speakers.
George Russell announced today that the Annual board will give a Jayhawker to the person who hands in to the board the best story, piece of scandal or any article regarding the school life at the University. The stories must not be under one hundred and not over two hundred words in length. The board reserves the right to reject any or all of the articles submitted.
Will Give Prize.
APPROPRIATION CUT
$40,000 BY STUBBS
GOVERNOR CANCELLED ONE YEAR'S UPKEEP FUND.
As a Result, University Must Get Along on Less Support Than It Has at Present.
Governor W. R. Stubbs made an additional cut in the University budget for the next biennium when he vetoed an item of $40,000 in the appropriation bill yesterday. The bill included $40,000 each year for the upkeep of buildings and grounds, and special items of repairs, improvements and equipment. The governor cancelled one item of $40,000 which means that the appropriation for one year must suffice for the entire biennium.
The University is badly crippled by this additional cut. The original budget was shaved to the last cent by the legislature and the bill which left that body allowed for the smallest possible margin of increase during the next two years. The act of the governor means that in the next biennium the University will have to get along on less money than it has for its support during the present biennium.
The $40,000 cut was made by the governor on items which were placed before the legislature in greater detail than anything else, and the legislators, searching for places to apply the pruning knife, could do nothing but let the repair bill stand. The entire $40,000 was itemized to the last cent by Secretary Brown and most of the items are necessary to connect, neating, lighting and sewer arrangements with the new building to be opened next year.
Other items are much needed repairs. The roofs of the Medical building and the University residence are leaking badly. The foundation of Snow hall is settling, as is attested by the broken stone window casings, jambs, and water tables. The middle partition has sunk over three inches and the building is said by the state architect to be in bad shape
The work of making all electrical connections by means of underground conduits can not go on. Two men were killed while the Engineering building was under construction, because of overhead wiring, always a possible source of danger. Many repairs are necessary in the wiring in buildings. A number of small fires have already been caused in the library by short circuits.
The sewage from some of the buildings will continue to be discharged upon the campus for lack of money to extend the system as needed.
For lack of money the University will be unable to comply with the state law regarding fire escapes.
The postponement of all repairs that can be postponed will cause greater damage to be done and a considerable greater ultimate cost.
"Not all the $40,000 can be cut out of the upkeep and repair budget," said Secretary E. E. Brown this morning. "A large part of the items must be paid for
as scheduled if the University to run."
Money to take the place of the cancelled $40,000 must come out of the maintenance fund. New courses that had been planned must be abandoned,and incidentally the members of the faculty must go without the promised increase in salaries.
WESTERN TRIP PLANNED.
Zoology, Botany, Taught on Pacific Coast This Summer.
Prof. W. J. Baumgartner, of the department of zoology, is now planning his third trip to the Marine station, at Puget Sound. Already twelve persons have signified their intention to make the trip with him. The special car which will carry the party to the Sound will leave Kansas City about the 10th of June. A six days' visit at the Yellowstone National park will be made, and the car will arrive at Bellingham, Washington on about the 20th. From this point the party will go by boat to Friday harbor, one of the islands of Puget Sound, the place where the Marine station is located.
Courses will be offered at the station this year in economic and systematic zoology, botany and field work. Much time is spent in dredging for the abundant fauna and flora in the waters of the sound. Credit will be given at the University for the six weeks courses. After the close of the Marine station persons may return by way of any one of the various routes. One trip will take them up the Columbia river, through the Royal Gorge and for a small additional fare a visit to the cities of California can be made.
The necessary expenses of the entire trip will be between $155 and $165.
WILL GIVE EXHIBITION.
Tumbling Team to Entertain Kan
sas Teachers.
The first public exhibition that will be given by the tumbling team at the University will be held at the meeting of the Kansas State Teachers' Association which will meet here on March 25. The teachers will eat their dinner in the girls' side of the gymnasium and after the dinner the sliding doors of the gymnasium will be pushed aside and the boys will present some tumbling stunts. The girls will give three of the Gilbert dances. The members of the team that will give the pyramid work, the hand springs and somersaults are: Root, Babb, Shotts, Brownlee, Ghormley and Pauly.
Friday's Speaker Ill.
Hon. E. L. Copeland of Topeka, who was to have given the chapel address Friday morning, is unable to come because of the serious illness of his son. There will be no other speaker. Thursday's chapel will serve as the long chapel of the week.
Prof. Herman C. Allen of the department of chemistry, will deliver a lecture at Burton Friday, before the Anti-Horse Thief association. His subject will be "Liquid Air."
CHANCELLORSTRONG FOR STATESWOMEN
OUR LEGISLATURE WOULD IMPROVE IF WOMEN VOTED.
higher Education Would Not Be Sacrificed if Women Ruled, Thinks the Chancellor.
The foregoing statement was made by Chancellor Strong in chapel this morning immediately after the speech of Sylvia Pankhurst.
"I believe that if our state legislature were largely made up of women, that higher education would be the last thing to be sacrificed to political expediency, instead of the first."
The Chancellor further said concerning woman suffrage:
"I have three women at my house—my wife, my daughter, and my mother, and I fail to see why they should not have as good a right to vote as myself. When the amendment to the constitution comes up at the next election, I shall vote "yes," and I sincerely hope that the amendment will pass.
"As many of you know I have had a great deal of experience lately with state legislatures and I cannot say that I believe that the presence of women in that body would be detrimental to the laws of the state."
THE SACHEMS MET.
Faculty and Seniors Discussed School Matters.
The Sachems, an organization of the senior class which was organized for the purpose of discussing various pertinent questions of interest to the students, held a meeting last night at the Alpha Tau house. Nine members of the faculty were present at the meeting. The members of the society gave talks to the club after the light refreshments had been served. At this meeting of the club each regular member brought a friend. Members of the faculty that were present are: Professors Carl Becker, Coach W. O. Hamilton, A. J. Boynton, C. A. Dykstra, E. W. Murray, H. A. Rice, W. L. Burdick, George C. Shaad, and J. N. Van der Vries.
Entertain Home Teams.
Country clubs or individuals who are expecting to arrange for the entertainment of the high school basket-ball teams or any individual members of the teams, should report to Registrar Geo. O. Foster, who is in charge of this part of the work of the tournament.
Will Address Y. M. C. A.
Prof. R.A. Schweegler of the department of education will speak before the regular meeting of the Y. M. C. A. Thursday evening at 6:45 in Meyer's hall. His subject will be "Religious Experiences of Young Men."
Creola Ford, Josephine McCammon, Elizabeth Bethes, Ruth Miller, Lyla Edgerton, all seniors in the Fine Arts School, will go to Kansas City Friday to hear Joseph Hoffman, the noted Polish pianist play the piano at the Willis Wood theater.

AGAIN THE THALIANS.
It is a pity that the light footed gentlemen who recently perfected the organization known as the Thalians, did not consult an advisor before announcing their name. "Thalians," according to their own definition, was chosen to honor the Greek goddess Thalia, who was, as they said, the patron of dancing. All of which is true. But here a thought intrudes that is probably out of keeping with the original intention of the Beau Brummels of the University. Thalia was goddess of the dance such as was affected by the rustic brethren after they had gathered in their hay in the fall, after the pumpkins had been laid by,after the butter and eggs had been marketed, after their fat porkers and sheep had been sold. The lowing of the kine, the bleat of the sheep and the grunt of a pig were the sweet sounds they heard. Sweet Thalia smiled on the antics of the country bumpkins and lassies as they made merry after their labors on "the dear old farm."
We must confess that it is a long step from such a pastoral scene to the one that is about to be perpetrated in our midst. Oh, but pardon us; probably "Thalians" is not a misnomer after all. It is doubtless the intention of the thirty Chesterfields to have programs bound in slices of bacon and to give out eggs set on a butter patties as dance favors. The
novelty of the idea would be sure to enhance the success of the dances.
STUDENTS' DAY
"Students' Day" is something that ought not to be neglected by the student body. The plan of having one day during the year set aside as one on which the members of every department of the University may gather together and meet on common ground, ought to be encouraged by all. Our school is sadly lacking in traditions. In a great many institutions they are among the most important phases of student life and the time is ripe for something to be started that shall remain in University life long after the present student generation has departed. The election of speakers from the several schools ought to engender a keen rivalry for an honor that ought to be considered among the choicest that the University can offer. Let us make "Students' Day" stand for all that the name implies.
We move that all Laws be barred. It has been announced that on "Students' Day" the gentle and elevating game of pitching for a crack will be a feature of the entertainment. We believe that assiduous practice in which various seekers for legal lore have engaged, has so perfected these coming barristers in the intricacies of the sport, that the ban of professionalism should prohibit them from participating.

will be ordered for duty to the Mexican frontier. Several rousing "Rock Chalks," interspersed with a sonorous vocalization of "Hail, hail, the gang's all here" by the leather-lunged cadets collected off the top of Oread, would doubtless provide sufficient incentive to cause the belligerent "greasers" to hunt for cover and to make the Hon.

SPRING PRACTICE IN TWO WEEKS
CAPTAIN AMMONS TO WORK WITHOUT A COACH.
Many Old Men Will be Out for Work—Freshman Squad Will Send Candidates.
In two weeks the annual spring football practice will be begun on the golf links. Never before has there been such a wealth of promising material in sight. The best spring practice ever held should result if all eligible candidates for the team check out a suit, thinks Captain Ammons. Many of the old men and practically all of the last fall's freshman squad will be out in suits. Captain Ammons, Todd Woodbury, Buzz Woodbury, Davidson, Kabler, Wilhelm, Ahrens and Davis will be the nucleus about which the 1911 football team will be gathered. Cady Daniels, captain of this year's freshman team, Trickett, Bramwell Stuewe, Zabel and Yeoman are the freshmen who will be in the race for a place on the regular team. Welch, Rambo, Snyder, Gossard, McMillan, are among the sophomores who will try out.
In regard to the delay of the University authorities in securing a coach, Captain-elect Ammons says: "There is a great deal of disadvantage in having a spring practice without a coach, because it is difficult to get a line upon the men. Heretofore spring practices have had a great deal to do in bringing out good men who did not come out in the fall. Practically half of this year's 'K' men were men who tried out in spring practice. Kansas will be severely handicapped if no coach is secured soon, because the rest of the conference schools have selected their coaches and are getting down to work. Without a coach the value of a spring practice is diminished fifty per cent."
PROM TO RUN ITS COURSE.
But Chancellor Thinks It Should Close Soon After 3.
A meeting of the junior class was held Monday in the chapel to hear the report of the committee appointed to interview the Chancellor in regard to the time ior Taps at the junior prom.
"The Chancellor seems to think the party should 'run its course, but close as soon after 3 o'clock as possible," said George Stucky chairman of the committee.
One member of the class suggested that the class have a smoker, but no decision was reached although the suggestion seemed to meet with approval. The class adjourned to meet some time during the week for a final decision about the smoker.
Junior Farce Try-Out.
George Bowles, who has charge of the junior farce, announced today that the tryouts for the play will be held next Tuesday evening at 7:30 in room 110 Fraser hall. All third year students are eligible for the farce whether or not they have the required number of credits. Miss Gertrude Mossler will choose the members of the cast.
The Junior farce this year is to be a musical comedy, on the order of the "Idle Idol," presented by the Red Domino club. All the music will be original, and Bowles announces that there will be four or five musical numbers in each act.

Marco Morrow Advises Scientific Study of Advertising.
Marco Morrow, the advertising manager of the Topeka Capital, spoke before the advertising classes yesterday afternoon upon the subject "What an Advertising Man Needs to Know." A number of the merchants of Lawrence heard the speech.
"The future development of advertising is to be in efficiency, not in volume," said Mr. Morrow. "Recently professional advertisers have come to apply learning gained in the colleges and universities and especially the knowledge*gained in the psychological laboratory." Mr. Morrow explained that it is the duty of the advertising agency to make advertising pay. As the purpose of advertising is salesmanship, it is necessary in writing an advertisement to gain the attention of the possible customer. "In order to do this," Mr. Morrow said, "the best method is to make a thorough study of the commodity to be sold."The agent is then in a position to make a just estimate of the article. Mr. Morrow advised papers not to allow a concern to overbuy space.

Harry Kemp came to Lawrence Tuesday after spending the past few weeks in a duck camp at Weaver.
Soon after he came to town he went to a haberdashery where he purchased a new spring suit, wore it out of the store, walked down the main street a new man and ready to relate the experiences that he has had this winter while in the solitude on the banks of the Kaw in a duck camp.
KEMP HAS A PATRON.
Of course he was asked the cause of the "splurge" for a new spring suit and his sudden appearance in town. To a few of his friends he confided that he had sold a couple of poems and was feeling prosperous. But to a few of his most intimate friends he gave the real tip.

Kemp now has a book of poems with a prominent publisher and is working upon his novel which he soon expects to finish.

YOUNG MEN want clothes that have a distinct style, quite different than the style of the clothes the mature man wears, yet they do not want that style so distinct that it is conspicuous or the least objectionable.
Society Brand Clothes solve this problem. Their style, while different, is
tasteful and pleasing to the most refined and cultured taste.
It is this combination of qualities that has made them the acknowledged standard of fashion for Young Men.

Is Co-Educational—The Grip Was Given Last Night.
The Thalians are going to have opposition. Last night a meeting was held by six University men who felt that their dancing ability had been slighted and an organization known as the Anti-Thalians was perfected. After drawing up a constitution regarding the pledging of new members, the six went to each of the sorority houses and pledged one girl from each house.
It is rumored that because of the fact that this society is a coeducational affair, the grip is one of the most important features of the organization. It is said to be a most elaborate affair and that it is especially adapted to University environment. The colors are black and blue. A schedule of events has not been announced.

SCHOOLS ELECT THEIR ORATORS
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 1911
BUT LITTLE COMPETITION AMONG SPEAKERS.
Fine Arts School Will Not Be Represented. Pharmics Elect a Freshman.
Speakers were elected by the various schools of the University yesterday, to represent them on Student day, May 26. All schools which were represented in the Student Council, were eligible to elect one speaker. There will be no speaker from the School of Fine Arts nor the Graduate School. The College, Engineers Laws, and Pharmie held their elections at chapel time.
In the Law School, Harry Allphin, a senior, was chosen from the four candidates. The vote was Harry Allphin, 56; M. O. Locke, 40; Clem Parker, 26; A. O. Andrews, 11.
Fred Lee, a senior, was the successful candidate in the College over William Land, Roy Work and Grace Elmore.
The engineer's election was practically by the departments, although there was some mixed vote. Mat Graham, a senior civil, won with a vote of 65, a majority of 21 over Henry Hoffman, electrical, who got 44. The other candidate was Tom Purton, mechanical, who had 11 votes.
The pharmacies voted 23 for Stone, and 12 for C. C. Cramer Stone, however, refused to accept the honor, and it fell to Cramer, the minority candidate, who is a freshman.

RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCES
Prof. Schwegler Shows Differ enc between Boy and Man.
Prof. Raymond A. Schwegler of the department of education spoke at the regular weekly meeting of the University Y. M. C. A. at Myers' hall, Thursday evening upon the subject of "Religious Experiences of Young men." He divided religion into two classes, namely, emotional and intellectual. Emotional he defined as the pleasurable side which resulted by giving attention to special music, rousing sermons by an enthusiastic pastor, to a buoyant congregation. Intellectual was defined as the catching of a vision of God and translating it into the lives of men.
For an example he took the life of a certain boy. He told of the ideas the young boy gathered from his parents, Sunday school teacher, and pastor in regard to religion, most of them were emotional in character. He accepted these from them as authority. He carried these ideas up through his boyhood until he reached the period of adolescence. During this period his emotional was at its highest pitch and he went to church regularly. There he was very much impressed with the average revival service which had as usual its martial music and militant revivalist.
The arrival of this youth at the University was the turning point in his religious career. The new surroundings instilled into him a different spirit. When he attended the church of his preference he rubbed up against a strange congregation and a strange pastor, and these failed to stir up the old emotional religion to which he had been accustomed. After experiencing a temporary relapse from all religion, he abandoned his former ideas and put his religion on an intellectual basis from which he gathered a vision of God and became contented with his new belief. His old emotional religion fled from him because it was broken by this element of intellectual religion.
Continuing Dr. Schwegler said, "The fundamental thing in religion is to catch this vision of God."
The regular University vesper service will be held in the chapel at 4:30 Sunday. This will be the last musical service and there will be but one other vesper service this year.
Vesper Service.
The program will be "Andante," from Preyer's first Sonata, by Professor Preyer; the "Anthem Te Deum," from Buck by the quartet; "Father Lead Me by Thy Hand," by Butterfield, from Belshazzar, by a trio consisting of Mrs. Lyons, Mrs. Simons, and Mr. Hubach; an organ and piano duet, "Duo Symphonique," from Wehly, by Miss Maude Cooke and Professor Preyer; a tenor solo "Eternal Rest," from Piecolomini, by Mr. Hubach; an organ and piano duet, "Adagio," from Beethoven.
AGNES HUSBAND IS CHOSEN MAY QUEEN
C. W. Whitehair, state college secretary of college Y. M. C. As. was a visitor at the University Y. M. C. A. Wednesday.
RULER OF FETE WILL SING THIS YEAR.
Committee Can Find no Jester
Senior Girls Will Give
a Party.
The senior girls, at their meeting yesterday in the chapel, unanimously elected Agnes Husband May queen for the May Fete, which will probably be held May 13. It will be remembered by the juniors and seniors that the last fete, two years ago, was held in the gymnasium on account of the April shower. This year the event is to be held later in the spring and it is hoped that the wet month will have exhausted itself before the campus is decorated for the games.
It is the present plan of the senior girls that the May queen sing a song suitable to the occasion. It was suggested that the queen ride a white horse in the procession, but that part of the arrangement has not been definitely decided as yet. As in the fete two years ago, the May queen will be preceded by a jester and four heralds. The committee is having some trouble to find a jester in the University.
This celebration of May day is the only one of the kind in the west, and it is intended to add a distinction to student life. The different classes are all represented in certain parts of the program, as are the fraternities and sororities.
At the meeting yesterday the senior girls also decided to give a party a week from today in the gymnasium. Those appointed on the entertainment committee were Mabel Evans, Alice Johnson, Lena Terrill, Marjorie Bodle, Bessa David, Novma Mering, and Beryl Lovejoy. The refreshment committee is Ann Williams, chairman; Mary Polack, Ola Jackson, Violet Haynes and Helen Morrow. The members of the finance committee are Allen a Grafton, chairman; Mabel Watkins, and Marienne Sapp. A tea is to be given for the faculty ladies April 20. The hostesses chosen were Gertrude Blackmar Helen Phillips, Agnes Husband, Oreta Moore, Mary Senior and Lois Stevens.
RELAY WITH MISSOURI.
Two Teams Will Try Fortunes Again Tonight.
Columbia, Mo., March 16. The University of Missouri and the University of Kansas relay teams will meet again Saturday night in the athletic meet of the Missouri Athletic club in St. Louis. Missouri will enter teams in the 1-mile relay against St. Louis and the University of Kansas and in the 2-mile relay against Drake University.
"Kansas will be our strongest competitor," said T. E. Jones, instructor in athletics today. "We have a good chance to win the cup offered to the school scoring the highest number of points, and there is no reason why we shouldn't capture several of the gold and silver medals offered for individual events.
JUNIORS ORGANIZE.
This Class Society Will Called "The Friars."
Twenty-three members of the junior class met at the Sigma Nu house last Thursday evening and organized a society that will be known as "The Friars." The primary purpose of the club is to perfect an organization whereby affairs of the class may be discussed. They will also entertain the other class societies at some time during the year and discuss matters of university concern.
The members of the society are: George Bowles, John Williams, James Boring, Carl Cannon, Andrew Van Eman, Roscoe Redmond, Clarke Wallace, George Stuckey, Robert Lee, Ira Bermant, Karl Moore, William Moore, Arch McKinnon, James Daniels, Frank Davis, John Johnson, Elmer Dittmar, Henry Ahrens, Ben Marshall, Solon Emery, Isaac Lambert, Lee Roberts, and Everett Brummage.
PAN-HELLENIC BASEBALL.
Fraternities Lay Plans for Tournament This Spring.
At a meeting of the Pan-Hellenic council Tuesday evening, plans were drawn up for the annual fraternity baseball tournament to be held this spring. For several years it has been a custom for the different fraternities to play a series of games every spring. As usual a cup will be contested for this year. It was arranged by the council to divide the fraternities into two divisions. The members of the first division are the Sig Alphs, Phi Gams, Sigma Nus, and Alpha Taus. Those in the second group are the Sigma Chis, Phi Psis, Betas and Phi Delts. The winners of each division will play a series of three games to decide the championship. The restriction on the players is that
The winners of each division will play a series of three games to decide the championship. The restriction on the players is that no varsity man, who has played the same position on the varsity in two games, can play that position on a fraternity team.
Receives Solid Alcohol.
A box of solidified denatured alcohol has been received by Prof. E. H. S. Bailey, from the firm that manufactures the product, located at Wheeling, West Virginia. Professor Bailey requested the company to send him a sample of their product for the purpose of investigation and examination into its properties and uses. According to the company the alcohol is non-explosive in such a form.
Dr. J. F. MacKey of the department of industrial research, addressed the Chemical club yes terday afternoon on the subject "Cementing Materials." Dr. Mackey developed a classification of cements based upon their manner of setting and showed that the development of modern constructional methods was due in a large measure, to the use of improved cementing material.
Dr. Hoffman, editor of the Chicago Daily Socialist, who addressed a large audience in Lawrence Tuesday evening, is a brother of John and Walter Hoffman of Enterprise, students in the College.
KANSAS OPENS THE SEASON AT HASKELL
COACH LANSDON'S PUPILS TEST STRENGTH TODAY.
Allphin and Hill Start as Battery—Spring Practice Has Been Satisfactory.
At 3 o'clock this afternoon the University baseball team opened the season with a game on Haskell field with the Indians. Thirty varsity men are out for the team and no permanent line-up was given, all the try-outs being allowed a chance to show their baseball ability. The line-up for the first inning today was:
K. U.— Haskell—
Hicks . . . s s . . Jenkins
Hill . . . c . Lawrence
Ward . . . 3rd . . Bebeaul
Larson . . l. f . Burnett
Cayot . . . 2nd . . Deere
Porter . . . 1st . . Parker
Moore . . . r. f. . Fremont
Mahin . . . c. f. . Crow
Allphin . . p . Matthais
Vaughan. Hudson
Umpire—Harlan.
The first inning was just started as The Kansan went to press.
Between twenty-five and thirty men have been reporting regularly for baseball practice on McCook field, and the competition for the positions on the nine gives promise of one of the fastest and best teams that Kansas has been able to produce since the days of Kauffman. Since the prospects of putting such a good team upon the diamond have developed, it is the opinion of Manager Lansdon and Captain Haller that there is little probability of the athletic board withdrawing the baseball team from the conference and confining the sport to a University league and class teams.
The members of last year's team have been allowed to check out uniforms, but the men who are trying out for varsity ball for the first time have had to wait until the old men have had a chance before they will be given the gray uniforms of the varsity squad. The men who are showing up best in the daily practice are: "Jim" Smith and Hill, catchers; Locke, Farrell, Goff, and Buzick, pitchers; Wilhelm and Larson, field; Hicks, Hoffman, and Randolph, short-stop; Porter, first base; Cayot, Rambo, and McCarty, second base; and Haller, and Ward, third base.
First Lecture Sunday.
Prof. F. W. Blackmar, dean of the Graduate School, will give the first of his series of five lectures on city problems, at Myers hall Sunday afternoon at 2:30. His subject will be "Vice and Crime."
This is one of the five mission courses that the Y. M. C. A. is offering. The classes will meet weekly for the next six weeks. Two hundred men have already signed for these courses. One hundred of the students will be in Professor Blackmar's division.
John C. Johnson, a freshman medic, has been called to his home in Formosa, on account o the serious illness of his mother.

GOVERNOR STUBBS.
The necessity for providing a permanent and regular income for the University was never more clearly emphasized than by the recent action of the executive of this state. After wrestling with the problem for many weeks, the State Legislature at last succeeded in making an appropriation that would at least keep our University from deteriorating. A feeling of relief was felt by all; the bill was passed by both houses and all that was needed to make it a law was the signature of the Governor. And then Governor Stubbs exercised his legal right and struck $40,000 from the upkeep of the University.
It seems a pity that our educational institutions should ever become primary factors in state politics. After allowing the Legislature that was not wholly in sympathy with the administration, to wrestle with the appropriation bill for several weeks, the Governor informed them that there must be economy and lots of it in their actions. After the House had brought the appropriation bill to the lowest possible margin, the Governor attempted to pave his way into the good graces of the "dear people" by saving $82,000 in appropriations all at the expense of the state educational schools. Of course next year if the Governor should seek the nomination for United States Senator, this little matter of economy will loom gigantic in the people's eyes, in contrast to the seeming lavishness of the Legislature. It is to be regretted that the Governor, who has in many instances been a great

friend of the University, should sacrifice the growth of this school for his political ambitions.
SOCIETIES.
The University of Kansas at present has an epidemic of societies. The future actions of the members of these fraternal organizations must determine the merits of each society. We believe, however, that the societies formed in the various classes will work for a great good. The formation of such organizations as the Sachems, The Friars, and the Black Helmet is in its general conception one that will enhance class spirit and create more interest in class affairs. The question of making the members of these societies truly representatives of their class is to be considered and as soon as this is done membership in any of the class societies will be considered a great honor.
Although an organization among the Freshmen probably would be harder to perfect,it,too, would work for good. Class societies that are not mere cliques are a necessary addition to our University life.
One newspaper, in commenting upon the fact that Governor Stubbs vetoed the bill for a single administrative board, remarks that the telegrams which advised the Governor against the bill were all from educators and expresses regret that the plan was not tried, to see what could be accomplished from a business standpoint. It is stating merely a commonplace to say that every cent of the people's money that has been appropriated for education should be made to do its share of work in the general result, but those who think that the state educational institutions are being managed in an unbusinesslike way have reached the conclusion not warranted by the facts. In these days, education is business, but it is now, as it always has been vastly more than mere business. The day that marks the spending of the large sums that support the state schools in exactly the same way that money is spent in "big business" will mark the decline of the schools in usefulness. It
is more than likely that the educators knew what they were talking about when they gave their advice to the Governor. The administration of universities is much the same in method all over the country and the myth that educators are "impractical people" has lasted too long without reason for existence. Woodrow Wilson,for example, is showing that the talent he devoted to administering a University is not at all inadequate to the task of administering a state.
Governor Stubbs vetoes just one-half of the Agricultural College's appropriation for coal, and probably they are hot enough about it down at Manhattan to keep warm without the coal.

All members of the Graduate School will meet at Westminster hall for a social evening, 8 p.m. Saturday, March 18th.

Editor Kansan:
Three cheers for the bells.Long may they ring. Regularly in every long chapel the gong on the second floor, Fraser, breaks in upon our speaker and rings until the battery wears out. The better the speaker, the longer it rings. We shift in our seats, embarrassed. The speaker is distracted.
Such an unnecessary interruption is a lack of courtesy on the part of the University towards the speakers is brings here. It would be easily possible by a little special wiring, to have this gong cut out of the circuit during chapel time. If the powers that be do not care to silence it, let us hope that a defect may cause it to ring some day until the chapel lets out before the trouble can be located. Maybe then it will get the recognition it demands, for a five minute stretch whenever there is an audience.

One of the mashing boys and his girl went into the museum the second hour one day last week, to indulge in a little private talk. Imagine their distress when they discovered that practical joker had locked them in. The third hour passed, 1 o'clock sounded and still no relief came. The afternoon passed slowly and tediously for the couple until nearly 6 o'clock, when a kind janitor released them. If we hadn't sworn not to give them away we would like to, but as it is, we can't.

The feeling among the other schools was high to defeat the K. S. U. man. Gilmore took fourth place.

NEW PHILOSOPHIC WORK BY BOODIN
MACMILLANS' PUBLISHING "A REALISTIC UNIVERSE."
The K. U. Professor's Contribution to Philosophy Will Appear in Two Volumes.
A two-volume work by Prof. J. E. Boodin, of the department of philosophy is soon to be published by the Macmillan company. The title of Professor Boodin's work is "A Realistic Universe." The first volume will be published within a few weeks and the second is now in the hands of the printers.
The sub-title of the first volume of the new work on philosophy is "The Problem of Truth." The heads of the four parts in which it is divided are:
Part I—Truth and Mental Constitution.
Part II—The Nature of Truth.
Part III—The Pragmatic Criterion.
Part IV—Truth and Its Object.
Professor Boodin has spent a number of years in writing and revising his book. A large number of the chapters have appeared as contributed articles in many of the philosophical journals of the United States. The work in which they will be knit together is not intended as a text-book, as it goes too deeply into its problem to be appreciated by any but advanced students but is intended as a reference work and a contribution of modern research in the field of philosophy.
Professor Boodiu was a student under the late Professor William James of Harvard and his writings show the influence of his teacher's pragmatic philosophy The forthcoming book is in part a criticism of the pragmatic philosophy and in inquiry into cer tain subjects beyond what Professor James accomplished.

ARGUED FOR AMATEURS.
Dr.Naismith Explains Conditions in College Sports.
Dr. James Naismith, professor of physical education, spoke in chapel Tuesday morning on the subject, "Commercialism in Athletics." Dr. Naismith first traced the growth of commercialism in connection with sport from early Grecian times to the present date He then said that after the Civil war in our country an attempt was made to distinguish between amateurs and professionals. This was in connection with rowing and since that time the distinction has come to cover all branches of athletics and the definition of an amateur has been made more definite and strict.
Dr. Naismith said that if we let professionalism get a start in any of our college athletics, it will be impossible to stop it. He mentioned arguments for and against the so-called "semi-professionalism." Some of the strongest arguments which have been offered in favor of the plan, are that some students are thus enabled to make college expenses during the summer; added interest to sport, especially baseball, is created; and good athletes are encouraged. Arguments against the plan are that it narrows the number who can compete, makes sport work, not play; and loses the moral and educational value of athletics. He also said that we should keep getting better in our college sport instead of taking a backward step.

MASQUE-THESPIAN UNION PLANNED?
RUMOR HAS IT THAT CLUBS WILL UNITE.
But Members of the Two Dramatic Organizations Will Say Nothing Definite.
Certain rumors have been circulating through the University to the effect that there is to be a union of the Masque and Thespian Dramatic clubs. The talk is not supported and the members of the two clubs will say nothing definite concerning the matter. Since Chancellor Strong made his remarks in chapel las fall concerning the "impossible and absurd" state of dramatics at the Kansas University the two clubs have been contemplating forming a single organization Again, the necessity of a single club was shown by the lack of support given the last of the two plays this year by the student body. It is believed by the leaders of the combining movement that one big play each year would have more success than two or three small ones.
A meeting of the Thespians was called a week or so ago, but the purpose of the meeting is not known because of the fact that there was no quorum present and so no action could be taken. It is the belief of a number of the Thespians that the meeting was called for the purpose of taking some action toward uniting with the Masque. It is impossible to discover who the leaders of the movement are.
AN ESTATE TO BAKER.
Kansas School Gets an Endowment of $100,000.
The Kansas conference of the Methodist Episcopal church in a meeting held Friday, March 17, voted to give to Baker University the Chrisman estate, valued at $100,000. With other amounts at their disposal, Baker will now be endowed with about $400,000.

The Phi Psis gave a St. Patrick's dance last night in Ecke's hall. The walls were covered with shamrocks, and the pillars were draped with green ribbon. From a large green parasol in the center of the floor a number of shamrocks were hung, making the entire effect of the hall Irish Two feature dances were given in one of which green flags were worn and in the other the girls wore green tissue paper capes and the boys green bow ties.

That the University of Kansas will refuse admission to probably five hundred young men and women during the next two years, was the statement made public today by Professor Olin Templin, dean of the College. The reason given for this action was based on the recent reduction made in the appropriations for the University. It was felt that the legislative appropriation of $40,000 per year for upkeep would provide for absolute necessities, but the action of Governor Stubbs in cutting the appropriation to $20,000 per year has made further progress practically impossible.
The $40,000 originally asked for was to provide for the reroofing of the Medical building, repairing the south wall of the Snow hall, providing adequate sewerage facilities and for various other repairs that were absolutely needed. These things must receive attention and the money with which the work may be carried on must come out of the fund for general maintenance.
Under the conditions as made evident by the new appropriations there can be no raise in the instructors' salaries, no enlargement of the class room facilities, no institution of new courses already planned, and in no instance can accommodations be made for the usual increase of two hundred and fifty students that apply for admission to the state school each year.
According to Dean Templin he will present a plan at the next meeting of the Board of Regents and urge its adoption, that because of a lack of funds with which to carry on the work the student body shall not be allowed to increase beyond its present numbers for the next two years.
LETTERS ON BASEBALL
Opinions of Other Schools on Spring Sport Sought.
Professor McClung has sent a letter to each of the conference schools with the hope that some agreement as to amateur standing may be reached. It is provable that the conclusion reached will be that all players who cannot be fully certified as to their playing in organized baseball, will be dropped. It is the intention of Professor McClung to hold out for an unquestioned amateur standing.
If the inter-collegiate games are dropped from the University schedule, in all probability there will be a series of inter-school games for the championship of the University. Manager Lansdon believes that eight or nine ball fields could be laid out and that sufficient paraphernalia for that many teams could be arranged for by the association. A suitable trophy will be offered, and the loss of the inter-collegiate games would not be so keenly felt.

BASEBALL.
At present baseball as a college sport among the schools of the Missouri Valley, seems to be in the last throes of its existence. Nebraska, Ames and Washington have already declared that they will have no teams this year, and the outlook for a varsity nine that will comply with the Conference restrictions, is not encouraging.
Letters have been sent to the Conference schools and the matter will probably be decided this week. Nebraska and Washington have expressed a desire to have the Conference make some arrangements for the game this spring, and Ames is willing to abide by the present ruling of the Conference. No matter what the other schools may say it is the intention of our Conference member to hold out for an unquestioned amateur standing. This will mean that all men who have played in organized baseball will be declared ineligible. All players who cannot be fully certified as to their amateur standing, will be ruled out. The team that the University would put out under such rulings would probably have to be recruited from the home economics department or from the Women's Student Council.
The institution of the inter-school games would cause some interest in the game, but the loss of a varsity nine would be a sad loss to the University. But in any case, the matter ought to be decided soon and the question should not be allowed to wait until the season is ready to open.
Ling is extremely apropos. For years the guests of the University have been subjected to this exasperating clanging of the gong during their speeches, and this mark of impoliteness should receive attention. The situation is embarrassing both to the speaker and to the student body.
ALUMNUS AN APPRAISER.
Responsible Position Given to J. S.Worley, a Graduate.
The communication by Ting-a
J. S. Worley, who graduated from Kansas University in '04 and who is president of the J. S. Worley Engineering Co., of Kansas City, has been employed to investigate the value of the Central Georgia Railway system. This road is 2,500 miles long and its appraisement is a task sought by many expert engineers in the East. The Manhattan, theMetropolitan and the Old Colony Trust companies of New York, trustees for the bondholders of the railway company, have employed Mr. Worley, and upon his figures will depend the outcome of a suit for ten million dollars in interest on bonds since 1906 by the trust companies against the railway. It seems that when E. H. Harriman gained control of the Central Georgia system in 1906, the payment of dividends on stocks stopped.
The work which won Worley his present commission over Eastern competition was the appraisement last fall of the Buffalo and Pittsburg railroad. The amount involved in this transaction was 50 million dollars.

FIRST GAME A TIE.
ROWLANDS COLLEGE BOOK STORE
Kansas and Haskell Quit With Score of 9-9.
The first baseball game of the season last Saturday afternoon with the Haskell Indians resulted in a tie at the close of the ninth inning. The game was called at this point on account of the cold and the fact that the Indians could not stay longer.
Captain Haller managed the game for Kansas from the bench and gave every man who was trying out for the team a chance to play at least one inning at the position that he is trying for.
Howard Blackmar, a sophomore in the College, has left the Uniwersity. He left Saturday for Superior, Neb., where he will travel for an oil company.

All the sophomore classes in geology assembled at Snow hall at 8:30 o'clock Saturday morning, to take a "hike" up the river toward Cameron's Bluffs, for the purpose of studying the geological formations along the Kaw.
Prof. W. H. Twenhofel accompanied the party as instructor and guide.
Prominent American Designers Have
produced a series of English-American saek suit styles this spring which are destined to make the younger set jump for joy. Smarter designs could scarcely be imagined. As usual in cases of this kind, the less skillful tailors are putting out "copies" of these styles, but the workmanship is so inferior that a few days' wear will destroy all semblance of smartness. Take notice that we are showing the full line of original models, tailored in the best possible manner and made from the finest of foreign and domestic woolens. These with many other effective new styles are exhibited in our excellent lines

A
COLLECTION OF OLD PHOTOS RECEIVED
H. E. RIGGS, '86, OF TOLEDO,
IS THE DONOR.
Likenesses of Faculty With Full Beards, and Students in Favorite Positions.
Over one hundred photographs of students and members of the faculty during the years '84 and '85, also half-tone photographs of Charles A. Dana of New York city, Medill McCormick of Chicago, and a picture of the linotype room of the Chicago Tribune, have been received by Prof. L. N. Flint, secretary of the Alumni association from H. E. Riggs, '86, of Toledo, O.
The co-ed's mode of hair dressing, the full beards of the faculty, and the odd poses of some of the students are the most noticeable features of the pictures. Nearly every member of the faculty wore full beards at this time, as was the custom among professional men and educators. Pictures were taken of the students in all sorts of positions. A favorite one with the boys was to hold the hat aloft from the head, the body bent slightly forward, and a somber look on the face. Jewelry was much in evidence particularly the fraternity pins of the boys, which were worn upon the left lapel of the coat.
In the collection are also the photographs of some of the members of the present faculty. They are as follows: Professors Bailey, Carruth, Dyche, W. H. Johnson, Green, Marvin, Sterling, and Stevens. W. Y. Morgan of Hutchinson, a regent of the University, E. C. Meservey of Kansas City, Mo., and Glen Miller, a wealthy banker of San Francisco, are among the students who have made good. Some half-tones of the ex-chancellors are Fraser, Lippincott and Marvin are included in the collection. The pictures were the products of three different Lawrence photographers, namely, Mettner, Da Lee, and Hamilton. The work was divided up equally, each photographer getting his share of the work, as none seemed to have a monopoly on the student trade.
Professor Flint says he intends to have the photographs put upon a revolving picture stand similar to those now located in the paleontological department upon the third floor of the Natural History Museum.
Generous Junior Girls.
Following the custom, which has been prevalent in the University for some years, the junior girls have voted down cabs for the Junior Prom. There was little opposition to the action; and to show that the girls this year are a little more economical than those of previous years, a motion was carried to the effect that the wearing of flowers at the Prom would be the height of ill taste.
It was decided at the meeting last week to give a party for the junior girls in the Gymnasium some time in May.
W. C. Hoad, of the School of Engineering left yesterday for Pratt, Kan. Professor Hoad was called in the interest of the fish hatchery, which will be changed to a considerable extent this spring.

K. C. Alumni Active.
The Kansas City alumni of the University, at a luncheon held at the Kansas City Athletic club, discussed a dinner to be given on or about April 8. The annual Kansas City alumni dinner is one of the big yearly events for the Kansas organization. J. C. Nichols, the president of the association, was authorized to appoint a committee to make arrangements for the dinner this year.
The feature of the evening was the lusty rooting of the one thousand students present. Washburn had the advantage as their rooters numbered between four and five hundred strong.
Special trains were employed by Baker and Ottawa Universities to bring their delegations to the contest.
The Washburn College basketball team defeated the Ottawa University five by a score of 41 to 21 at Topeka Friday night. The Kansas State Normal School claims second place in the race by right of its victories over the rest of the conference schools. Baker University also claims first place by its victories over Washburn and Ottawa on her own court.

TO CURE MENINGITIS.
University Medical Authoritie Receive Serum From New York.
Three bottles of Flexner's antimeningitis serum, for the treatment of cerebro spinal meningitis have been received by Dean M. T. Sudler of the School of Medicine, from the Rockefeller Institute of medical research of New York city.
Three cases of spinal meningitis are under treatment in Lawrence, and the University medical authorities thought it will to provide against any possible spread of the disease among the student body.
"No new cases have been reported for some time," said Dean Sudler this morning, "but we intend to take no chances, and so have secured a considerable amount of the anti-meningitis serum for use if more instances develop."

Faculty Team Will Play Student Champions.
The annual hand-ball tournament will be held by the students of the University during the week beginning April 3, and several of the men who have been playing all year, have expressed their intention of entering the contests. Both singles and doubles will be played and the tournament will be conducted in round robin fashion, in which the men will be paired off at the start and by a process of elimination the winner will be decided. At present no trophy has been obtained for the victor in the contest. The tournament will be in the charge of Dr. Naismith and C. B. Root and all applications for entrance may be given to those men.
The members of the faculty who indulge in the game of hand-ball have extended a permanent challenge to the winner of the students' tournament to a set of games, which will decide the championship of the school.
Fay Moulton, the University athlete who was graduated in 1900, and who holds the University record for the 100-yard dash, is now in Kansas City and he, together with James Masker of the Kansas City Athletic club, has issued a standing challenge to the men of the University for a set of games. Several years ago these men came to the University to play hand-ball and left victorious.

COUNCIL ORDERS A MORE THOROUGH EXAMINATION.
University Authorities Will Search for Traces of Rabies Today- Victims to Rosedale.
Yesterday afternoon three boys in Lawrence were bitten by a squirrel, whose actions caused observers to suspect rabies, and as a result the city council at its meeting last night, ordered a number of the squirrels in different parts of the town to be killed and inspected by the University authorities. Dr. M. A. Barber and C. W. Hooper examined the squirrel that bit the boys for traces of rabies. Dr. Barber said this morning: "Mr. Hooper and I made a thorough examination of the animal and found it have all the symptoms of rabies."
The boys who were bitten by the squirrel were Elden Waller, Arthur Anderson and Willis Sayles. The Sayles boy found the squirrel injured a week ago, and nursed it back to life. It was supposed to have completely recovered from the injury when it attacked the boy. Eldon Waller was so badly bitten that he will be sent to the University hospital at Rosedale for treatment.
Dr. S. T. Gillispie, a city physician, called up the State Board of Health, which sanctioned the killing of any of the squirrels for examination. Dr. A. P. Hults, one of the councilmen, killed six or eight of the animals in different parts of Lawrence this morning. The squirrels are now at the University for examination.

ON ELECTRICAL POWER.
Professor Shaad Discusses Practical Side in Chapel.
George C. Shaad, professor of electrical engineering, spoke in chapel this morning in regard to the development of electrical power transmission in the United States in recent years. After referring briefly to the machinery necessary for changing mechanical to electrical energy, he spoke of the great increase in the last two decades in voltage powers of electrical plants.
California containing 150 cities and towns is now served by one system. The water power from Niagara falls is used to supply electrical power to New York cities as far east as Syracuse. Plants at Boston and Chicago also serve many people outside the local territory. Professor Shaad said that transmission of electrical power was only in its beginning in Kansas and that the time would come when every town of importance and many rural districts might secure a uniform supply from a central system at a minimum cost.
This development in the systems secured several advantages as explained by Professor Shaad. An area of 12,000 square miles in

TWELVE FLOATS IN ENGINEERS' PARADE
450 ENGINEERS TO MARCH ACROSS CAMPUS.
A dozen floats, constructed by ingenious engineers, will be the feature of the monster parade that will move through the campus a week from Friday morning when approximately four hundred and fifty engineers will celebrate Engineers' day. The program of the day will start at 10 o'clock in the morning, when all the engineers will go to chapel in a body. Afterward they will return to Marvin hall where they will listen to speeches by engineers in their own chapel. George Russell, chairman of the day's entertainment, has arranged for the Engineers' Glee club to furnish the music.
Ball Games, Races and Tug of War in Afternoon, With a Dance at Night.
At 12:15 the parade will start from the Engineering building march across the campus, and will parade Massachusetts street. It will end on McCook field where dinner will be served. Each will bring his own dinner pat, but a tub of coffee will be free to every engineer.
During the afternoon there will be three baseball games and other sports. A mile relay race between the four classes has been scheduled.
Each man will run fifty yards. Then there will be a scrap known as a "battle royal" between fifty freshmen and fifty sophomores. Boxing and wrestling are also on the program. One of the mathematic classes has challenged any other class to a tug-of-war across Potter lake. The challenge announced yesterday is: "We, the Majestic Parabolic Ellipsoid Whirlers of 'Doc' Van der Vries" 10:15 math class, do hereby challenge any other class of twenty-five Bo's in the Engineering School, to a tug-of-war. Said tug to take place across Potter lake, losing side to be given a bath in its healing waters, subject to the choice of the acceptors. Rope to be furnished by Dean Marvin—"Doc" Van der Vries and Class."
In the evening a dance will be held in Robinson gymnasium, to which engineers only will be admitted. Shanty's seven-piece orchestra will furnish the music. Tags for the day can be had from George Russell or any other member of the committee. The tags will be sold for a quarter. George Russell will have charge of the events for the day. The men in charge of the program for the morning are: Edmund Rhodes and Otto Dingelstedt; the afternoon committee is: Charles Haller and Thomas Purton; the evening committee is Charles MeWhorter and Frank Lynch.
Professor R. A. Schwegler will speak before the Y. M. C. A. tonight on the subject "The Essence of Christianity." Prof. Schwegler addressed the Association last Thursday evening and the popularity of the talk brought out the demand for another addres. Melvin Kates will give a piano solo. All men are cordially invited.
FIRST OF LECTURE SERIES
Mrs. Chafin Explains Settle-
ment Work to Girls.
Mrs. J. T. Chafin of the Swope Settlement of Kansas City, spoke before the Young Women's Christian Association yesterday afternoon upon the subject "Social Work in the City." Mrs Chafin has had five or six year's experience in settlement work, and her husband is at present the head resident of the Kansas City institution. The lecture by Mrs. Chafin is one of a series which the Y. W. C. A. is giving for the instruction of the girls of the University. Last week Lucy Riggs of Kansas City, Kan., gave an interesting talk upon the "Work of the Y. W. C. A. in the City." Nadia Thomas, secretary of the association, explained today that the remainder of the lectures will be on the work being done in small towns.
Mrs. Chafin gave an interesting and instructive account of the work being carried on in Kansas City. She presented the great needs for such work, and the methods which are being employed to better conditions. The social and educational parts of the work are of equal importance. Poor girls are taken from the slums of Kansas City, and educated in the schools and taught correct social usage. Hundreds of girls' lives have been saved from complete failure.
GOOD GOVERNMENT CLUB.
Senator J. L. Brady Addressed Members Last Night.
The Good Government club held initiation for eleven newly elected men at the Beta house last night. After initiation Senator J. L. Brady addressed the members of the club on "Present Tendencies in Government." It is the purpose of the club to secure Senator Hodges to address them at the next meeting, which will be held the evening of April 6th. Plans were also made to send a delegate to the next national convention of the Good Government clubs of the various universities, which will be held in Washington, D. C., next year.

The sophomore girls' basketball team defeated the freshman girls by a score of 10 to 7 in a game played in Robinson gymnastium Tuesday afternoon. This was the first of a series of games of inter-class basket-ball to be played by the girls this spring, Miss Frederika Hodder is the captain of the second-year girls, and Miss Bernice Schultz is captain of the freshman team.

Everyone with a story to hand in should give it to one of the Annual board before April 1. This includes the prize story.
COACH SELECTION ANNOUNCED SOON
LUEHRING, FINGER, AND SHERWIN ARE THE MEN.
Man Selected Must Coach Both Baseball and Football Teams.
The selection of the coach for the football and baseball teams of the University has been narrowed down to three applicants and the matter will be definitely decided within a few days. This announcement was made this morning by Chancellor Strong after receiving a number of letters and telegrams from applicants for the position. C. C. Childs, a graduate of Yale, and for several years a member of the Eli eleven, and now a resident of New Haven, Connecticut, was considered as probably one of the most desirable men but his inability to coach the baseball team eliminated him from the position.
At the present time the men who are being considered are F. H. Luehring, S. W. Finger and R. W. Sherwin. Luehring is a former Kansas boy and will take his Doctor's degree from the University of Chicago this spring. He is an all around athlete and has the personal recommendation of Coach Stagg, of the University of Chicago, as a man who could fill the position at the University. For several years he was the coach at Ripon college and had unusual success as a coach. He was an official at the basket-ball games played at the University of Missouri this fall and the members of the 'varsity five report that he was by far the best official that they found while on the trip. S. W. Finger is now doing graduate work at Grinell. He is probably the best all around athlete that this institution has turned out for years and his name is being seriously considered. R. W. Sherwin, the other man who is being considered, is a graduate of Dartmouth college and at the present time is a resident of Hanover, New Hampshire. For four years he was the left tackle on the Dartmouth eleven and for the past two years has made the All-American team. Experts in the East picked him as a player of stellar ability and he was chiefly responsible for the defeat of Princeton this year. The high position that the Dartmouth team has taken during the past few years has been due largely to his playing.
The position of coach this year will involve the task of coaching (Continued on page four.)
A Deep Kaw Should Make Good Course.
PLAN FOR REGATTA.
Plans are already being made for the annual regatta,which will be held on the Kaw during commencement week. The Kaw is in fine shape this year, owing to the heavy rains this winter, which have made the channel much wider and deeper. The following events will be given:
One-fourth mile rowing races, $ \frac{1}{2} $ mile canoe races, $ \frac{1}{4} $ mile mixed doubles, 50-yard swim, diving and tilting contests. As a special feature this year a game of water baseball is being arranged.
"The regattas have been well attended in the past, and much interest is shown in the sport," said Brignard, chairman of the rowing committee, last year, "and I think we have better material this year than ever, so that the races should be more closely contested than last year, when Logan Abernathy won most of the events."
Abernathy is attending Wisconsin this year, where he made stroke on the varsity eight,which meets some crews from Eastern schools at Poughkeepsie, late in June.
TO TOUR EUROPE
K. U. Students will Travel a Year on Motorcycles.
A tour through Europe on motorcycles has been planned by two students of the University, Albert Manglesdorf, a junior engineer, and Isaiah Brook, a freshman in the College. They will leave July 1, to be gone for a year, during which time they will travel through Germany, France, Spain and Italy on their cycles, visiting places of interest and acquainting themselves with the language of the different countries.
As both students speak German fluently, considerable time will be spent in the "Waterland." They will familiarize themselves with German customs and traditions.
The Fine Arts students gave a short program at the downtown studio in the Dick building Friday afternoon. Bernice Barker sang a solo, Marie Brown and Clara Hase gave piano solos; Ruth Lawson, Bertha Burgess, Mae Garvin, and June Porter gave readings.
The first case of diphtheria in the University this spring was reported Tuesday when Orr Mofett was taken ill very suddenly at the Sigma Nu house. He was taken immediately to the University hospital and today he is feeling much better, although it will be at least three weeks before he will be released from quarantine.
All organizations that have not yet handed in their write-up and key to pictures must see that it is done immediately, as the Annual board is getting tired of waiting for them.
Dr. C, H. Edmundson, of Washburn, will speak before the geology seminar tomorrow after chapel, in Snow hall.
SENIOR SMOKER SATURDAY NIGHT
TWO HUNDRED MEN EXPECTED TO ATTEND.
New Stunts and Boxing and Wrestling Bouts to Afford the Entertainments.
Over two hundred seniors are expected to be present at the fourth annual senior smoker, which will be held at Ecke's hall, Saturday evening, March 25. The object of the smoker is to arouse enthusiasm and stir up class spirit preparatory to the class reunions which will be held at the University in 1916. This date will mark the semi-centennial of the founding of this institution. Plans for the reunion and the method of entertaining the alumni will be discussed at the smoker. It is the intention of the present graduating class to have all the alumni present at the exercises in 1916, so that everyone may get acquainted and work for the best interests of the University, and especially when it gets into dire straits as it did this winter. After 1916 these class reunions will be held every year, thus enabling each alumnus of the University to keep in closer touch with his Alma Mater. This plan has been tried at Princeton, Harvard, Yale, and Pennsylvania and has met with great success.
Entertainment for the evening will be furnished by the different fraternities who will present the stunts that were put on at the Pan-Hellenic banquet and boxing staged by some of the University esq osu qii m snoo juu ipsa puu athletes. A afcue lunch of cigars, sandwiches, and coffee will be served. Roberts, Welch, Emery, and Easterday will take part in the wrestling bouts. The bouts will last half an hour. O'Connor, Campbell, Smith and Coats will take part in the boxing bouts. only three-minute bouts will be allowed. No winners will be announced in the bouts.
Will Elect Attendants.
There will be a meeting of the junior, sophomore, and freshman girls in chapel Friday to elect attendants to the May Queen. Each class will select four girls. Juniors will meet in chapel, sophomores in room 110, and freshmen in room 112. The committee for the junior girls' party, to be held in May, will also be appointed at that time.
At a meeting of the Alpha Chi Sigma Thursday evening in the Chemistry building, three new members were initiated. They are: W. A. Hobbs, instructor in the department of chemistry; William V. Miller, a junior in the College, and C. C. Young of the department of chemical water analysis.
Forty students tried out before Miss Mossler and the committee. Tuesday evening for places in the Junior Faree and the cast will be selected before the end of the week. Twenty-five juniors will be selected and practice will begin the first part of next week. The cast will be announced Saturday.

THURSDAY, MARCH 23, 1911.
The recent statement that the University may refuse admission to probably five hundred students within the next two years, has caused much comment. We are inclined to believe that while the matter recommends itself in many ways, there would be considerable difficulty in carrying it out to a successful conclusion.
The University of Kansas is a free institution. It is maintained by the state at the expense of every taxpayer within the limits of the state of Kansas, and there is no power than can deny to any applicant admission to this state institution. If the matter was taken up by any student who was denied admission he could have a writ of mandamus issued and could compel the authorities to allow him to enter the University.
While we believe that the point in question—the lack of appropriations—is extremely pat, the plan as applied to a state institution would find many obstacles.
The visit of the three hundred high school students to the University this week, should receive especial attention. Coming from high schools from all parts of the state they may be regarded as representative high school students and as such should be made to feel that when it is their time to go to a school of higher learning, they should come to the University of Kansas. Let us show them all the courtesies that we know and let them see that even though we do sit up all night in poker games and beer drinking contests, and spend the day in various other forms of vicious diversion, there is still left a small trace of the University spirit.
Some provision ought to be made by University students for the entertainment of the visitors from their home counties. H.C. Herman, who has charge of this work is meeting with little success in obtaining places for the high school students. Let us see that all of our friends receive attention this week and by so doing we will make them staunch friends of the University.

Verses by University Poets of Serious Nature.
POEMS ARE WRITTEN.
All the material for the book that is being published by the poet's club of the University was handed in to the committee in charge last Thursday and the verses were taken to the printer's office where the labor of putting the volume into final book form will be performed. Each of the six contributors has written five
poems that will be printed, and the members of the club in charge of the publication expect to realize enough from the proceeds of the volume to pay all the expenses of the printing. The verses that are incorporated in the volume are generally of a serious nature and some of them partake of a reactionary and progressive spirit. The company that will publish the volume is the Journal-World, and they expect to have the book from the press by the middle of April. The members of the club who are
contributors to the book are Gale Gossett, Adella Pepper, Anna Manley, Willard Wattles, John Shea, and Harry Kemp.
Sunday Lecture to Girls.
Dr. Payne will deliver a course of two lectures before the girls of the University, at Myers hall, Sunday, April 2nd and 9th, at 3 p.m. The subjects will be: "The son of man and the Son of God" and "His Resurrection."

A Spring Style Show of EXTRAORDINARY IMPORTANCE
We think we can show you, if you'll give us about twenty minutes of your time here at the Store, that the Ober way of selecting a Big New Clothing Stock is really the only way that insures the fullest possible satisfaction to men and young men who want to be strictly up-to-the-minute in their wearing apparel. Instead of buying our goods on the "reputation" or "advertising ability" of clothing manufacturers, we go into the markets ourselves and make a thorough comparison of all the High-Class Brands, selecting only such makes as we know to be the "best in the field." During our last buying trip, just completed, we examined and compared the latest productions of more than 25 celebrated manufacturers of Men's and Young Men's Clothes—a task that few Clothiers have the patience (or is it progressiveness) to undertake.
What is the result? Simply this: We have assembled, and now have ready to show you, the very cream of the Spring Clothing output, the besttailored Clothes, the most authentic models, the richest of foreign and domestic woolens, from England, Ireland, Scotland and America, the best of the extreme styles and the best of the conservative styles. We have brought to Lawrence as many as fourteen "exclusive" models in Suits and Overcoats, such as no other store in Lawrence will show this Spring. Whether you choose to pay
$35, $30, $25, $20, $18, $15, $12.50 or $10 we will show you an endless collection of styles and weaves, all crisply new, and thoroughly consistent with the Ober policy of giving the best money's worth to be had. Immense new lines also ready in Stetson Hats, Imperial Hats, Ober Special Hats, Nettleton Shoes, Forbush Shoes, Thompson Shoes, Manhattan Shirts--and the most extensive Boys' Clothing display we have ever had.

MEMBERS CONSIDER A UNION POSSIBLE
PRESIDENTS OF DRAMATIC CLUBS ARE FAVORABLE.
It Is the Belief of Those Consulted That Dramatics Is Overdone at Present.
Members of both the Masque and Ipsipian clubs were interviewed this week on the question of the proposed union in those organizations. Their opinions, however, showed that there is little chance for such a combination as has been suggested.
"As yet the union of the two dramatic clubs on the hill is simply talk between members," said Chas. Younggreen, president of the Masque Club. "I think, however, that such a union will probably be affected within a year. The ideal dramatic club for this institution would be one composed entirely of people interested in dramatics, and not those out merely for a good time; such people would keep up in their work. There is really only enough good material each year for one club."
"Such a plan might be all right if worked out carefully, but I do not think that a union of these two clubs is advisable or even possible at this University, under present conditions," said Everett Brumage, acting president of the Thespian club, this morning. "It is a well known fact that sentiment is growing against the over doing of dramatics in the University. The students have been getting around the faculty ruling of only one play a year, by forming new clubs. The faculty will undoubtedly force some kind of a union soon, if the clubs don't take the stey voluntarily."
Alan Park, vice-president of the Thespians last year, when asked concerning the reported alliance, remarked: - "I have known that there was some talk of such a movement between several of our members and those of the Masque club. I think the matter could be arranged. Such a step would most certainly act for the good of dramatics in the University. Our club has taken no official action on the matter."

The freshman baseball team had its first practice Monday afternoon on the golf links. Forty freshmen came out to try for the first year nine. The diamond was very rough, as it has not been worked over since the football season. Tuesday a force of men put the ground in good shape. On account of the large number out for the team it was necessary for Haller, who is acting coach, to change nearly every man on the field.

ON MAY 20.
No Admission Will Be Charged
—Airs From Rossini's Opera
Will Be Sung.
The eleventh annual play to be presented by the French department of the University will be given in Robinson gymnasium on the evening of May 20. The play this year is a tour-act comedy, "Le Barbier de Seville," by Beanumarchaus. Rossini has written an opera based on the work of Beaumachis, and several airs will be used from this. The play will be given by students of the department and rendered entirely in the foreign. No admission will be charged. The leads will be taken by Quay Barnett, senior College, and Marguerite Stone, both well known in dramas. The cast will be as follows:
Count Almaviva—Rei Ryland a Bartholo,a doctor—Harold Smith Rosine, ward to Bartholo—Marguerite Stone; Figaro, a barber, Quay Barnett; B丹 Bazile, a music master-Le Vergne Dale; Annotary-Amos Johnson.
The parts of La Jeunesse and L. Eveille, which were originally male characters, are to be changed to female characters. These parts have not been filled
The plot of "Le Barbier de Seville" is laid in Seville, France, in the seventeenth century. The Count Almavivi is in love with Rosine, the ward of Bartholo who himself wishes to marry her for her fortune. The count and Rosine have never met, and their attempts to do so are successfully baffled by Bartholo. The count finally enlists the aid of Figaro, a merry barber. Figaro makes plans whereby Almaviva and Rosine meet on several occasions in spite of Bartholo. Throughout the play the wits of Count Almaviva, and Figaro are pitted against those of Bartholo and Don Bazille. In the end Bartholo is thwarted and the count wins Rosine. The play will be giver under the direction of the French department.

COACH SELECTION
ANNOUNCED SOON
the varsity football and baseball teams and otherwise creating an interest in athletics among the students. "It is the intention of the University to start a movement toward athletics for the entire student body," said Chancellor Strong. "The coach that we select must be an all around athlete who can put in the entire school year with a large number of the student body. It is desired to have all men of the University come out for athletics and it is believed that a coach that has had experience in all around athletics will do much toward working up the proper enthusiasm. We are trying to get away from the old idea of having the students play the games from the bleachers. What is hoped for is a student body in which all of the men take part in the school of athletics. The starting of the inter school baseball games is a step in this direction."

Athletes in Poor Condition Outdoor Practice Will Be Commenced Next Week.
Coach Hamilton has reduced the track squad to twenty men this week, and with this number will make a trip to Kansas City, to take part in the Kansas City Athletic club invitation meet that will be held in Convention hall next Saturday night. The chances of Kansas winning first place in this meet are excellent.
Coach W. O. Hamilton said this afternoon about the chances of the team winning the first place, "1 am taking the team there so that the men can gain experience by laboring under adverse circumstances, for 1 expect the handicaps to be heavy against us. I will enter as many men in the events as I can and attempt to win as many of the second and third places as possible. Several of our men are not in good condition for the meet. Tod Woodbury has a severe stone bruise on his heel and "Buzz" Woodbury is suffering from a bad strain of the hip which was caused by a slip in running the hurdle races at St. Louis."
The track on McCook field will be in condition for practice the first of next week and the varsity men will begin their regular outdoor work at that time. Coach Hamilton will be ready for the freshmen who intend to work for the team by Monday of next week, and all men who have done
done any work on the track are expected to make MeCook field their headquarters for at least one hour of the day in the afternoon.

The last University vesper service of the school year will be held in the chapel tomorrow afternoon at 4:30. The address will be given by Dean Shaul Mathews of Chicago University. His subject will be "The Adventures of Faith." The special music will consist of a piano prelude by Prof. C, A. Preyer; a solo "Evening and Morning," by Mrs Lyons, and a violin solo and organ postlude by Miss Dunne, Prof. Preyer and Miss Cooke.
FIRST RELIGIOUS ADDRESS
Shailer Mathews Discusses Relation of Jesus to Men.
"Jesus is essentially an individualist;he is concerned not with human, but with man the unit," said Dean Shailer Mathews of the University of Chicago Divinity School, yesterday afternoon in the first lecture of the institute of Religious Education. The subject of the address was "The General Character of the Social Teaching of Jesus." "Yet this individualism in no way detracts from the democracy upon which Jesus constantly insists. He sees in human relationships the chance for an ideal fraternity."
"This fraternity," said Dean Mathews, "is to be one of usefulness rather than of rights, Jesus deliberately emphasized this truth to those who had privileges. He had a frank recognition of the cost of his doctrine, it cuts down into the selfishness of the human soul.
"The perception of his own social teachings which Jesus had is primarily religious. He says that men can be truly social beings only by becoming the sons of God. Jesus approaches all his teachings with the fundamental conception that men ought to become like God even though it means sacrifice."
Dr. Matthews will speak at the vesper service at 4:30 Sunday afternoon on "The Adventure of Faith." and at the same hour on Monday on "The Teaching of Jesus as to the Worth of the Individual."
BLACK HELMET MEETING.

H. S. TOURNAMENT ALMOST DECIDED
CONTEST HAS NARROWED TO FOUR BEST TEAMS.
Lawrence and Topeka of Boys and Chanute and Reno of the Girls Remain.
The final contest for the enamipionship in the boys' tournament will be played between the Topeka and Lawrence high schools this evening. The deciding game of the girls' tournament will be played between Chanute and Reno County. The games this evening will be played on the long court of the gymnasium and the halves will be full twenty minutes. In the semi-finals, Topeka defeated Arkansas City this morning by the score of 35 to 32. Lawrence qualified for the final contest by defeating the strong Buffalo five by the count of 35-32. These two games were the hardest and fastest that have been played in the tournament this year, and the game this evening promises to be one of the fastest contests that has ever been played between high schools on the court in Robinson gymnasium. The Topeka five have a good record this season, but the Lawrence squad has one that equals it in every way. The Lawrence team has lost only three of their contests this season and they won the cup at the tournament held by Baker University this spring. Perhaps the fact that they are more acquainted with the long court will work to the advantage of the Lawrence men.
In qualifying for the finals of the girls's part of the tournament, Chanute defeated Wamego by the score of 38 to 12, and Reno County defeated Clay County by the score of 44 to 8.
In the second set of games in the boys' tournament, Friday afternoon, eight teams qualified for further contests. The third round played Friday night and Saturday morning resulted as follows: Topeka, 27, lola 23; Arkansas City 32, Winfield 30; Clay County 25, Lawrence 28; Buffalo 29, Halstead 25.
In the girls' tournament five games were played Friday and the teams that qualified for the semi-finals are Reno County, Clay County, Wamego and Chanute. The results of the girls' games are as follows; Reno County 36, Olathe 20; Wamego 29, Dickinson County 19; Chanute 68, Bonner Springs 4; Clay County 12 Osawatomie 9; Hutchinson 20, Olathe 21.
Lawrence and Clay county played the fastest game of the series last night and the result of the game was in doubt till the final moment of the contest. Lawrence nosed with a three point lead. Clay County won the championship in the tournament last year and their efforts to repeat the feat were strenuous, but the newly organized team of the local school roped too fast.
Last night the opening game of the evening was played between a team of all stars of the University and the freshman team. The result of this contest was a defeat for the all-stars by the score of 20 to 16. The All-Star team consisted of Edward Van der Vries, Long, Hargis, "Phog" Allen, and Listen. The Freshmen were Brown, Baldwin, Boehm, W. Brown, Greenees and Smith.
At noon today lunch was served to about 225 visitors at the Robinson gymnasium, after which they were entertained by an interpretation of various folk dances by Miss Fish's dancing class. This was followed by an exhibition of pyramids and tumbling by Root, Babb, Pauly Shotts, Ghormley, and Brownlee.
Among the prominent visitors on the hill today were. Professor
Shailer Mathews of Chicago University, Professor Schwartz of the McKinley High school, St. Louis, Professor Pierson of Kansas City, Kan.; Professor Todd of Washburn, Professor Garrett of Baker, Professor Knight of Wichita, Professor Short of Topeka, and Professor Ware of Olathe.
WENT UP IN SMOKE.
Thinking They Were Smoking Tobacco Medics Inhaled Postum.
Somebody ought to carry the news to C. W. Post. Recent medical tests have demonstrated that the bran products of his Battle Creek factories are not only good to eat and drink, but that they can be inhaled with great mental and spiritual benefit.
On the living-room table of the Nu Sigma Nu medical fraternity house in Rosedale, stands a tobacco jar, the contents of which are used by all the residents of the house and paid for by a smaller number. One day a sample package of postum was left at the house and one of the men, thinking to discourage the "moochers," emptied the contents into the tobacco jar and mixed Postum and tobacco well together. The effect was better than he expected. The men who liked to get something for nothing noted that the jar had been replenished and went after it, pipes in hand. For days they smoked, praising the good "tobacco" between puffs. Only after the jar was emptied did the student who had thought up this new use for Postum explain to his fellows what they had regarded as diversion had really been work leading to a new medical and scientific discovery.
HOBSON IS CAPTAIN.
Schedule Planned by the Soccer Team Is Heavy.
Asher Hobison was elected captain of the 1911 soccer team yesterday afternoon at a meeting of the soccer team, held in Coach Root's office in Robinson gymnasium. Plans for getting men out for practice were also discussed. The squad will begin spring practice Monday afternoon on the soceer eld just south of the gymnasium, under the supervision of Coach Root. They will practice three days out of the week at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.
Miss Alma Manley '09 of Junction City visited with her sister, Miss Anna Manley, during the high school conference.
A schedule is being prepared and games with Baker University, Friends University, Fairmount College, College of Emporia, and the Kansas State Normal will be played next fall. According to present prospects the University soccer team will be a strong aggregation next year.
ATTENDANTS ELECTED.
Freshmen Girls Will Elect Monday Noon.
The sophomore and junior girls elected their attendants for the May Queen Friday noon. The juniors elected: Leota McFarlin, Esther Degen, Nan Armstrong, and Brownie Angle. The sophomores chose Fay Chisham, Maryzita Cabill, Helen Degen and Vera Atkinson. The juniors had their meeting in the chapel and the sophomores met in room 119. The freshmen girls will hold an election Monday to determine their representatives.
Prof. W. C. Hoad has been in Pratt, Kan., the greater part of last week, assisting Professor Dyche, fish and game warden, in planning improvements on the state fish hatchery there.
GOVERNOR STUBBS BECOMES INCENSED
THE STATEMENT BY DEAN
TEMPLIN IS CORED.
Resents The Kansan Editorial and Demands an Explanation— Regents Meet Tuesday.
Last Saturday The Kansan criticized editorially the action of Governor Stubbs in cutting $40,000 from the University appropriation. On Monday a statement from Dean Templin appeared in which it was said that he would present a plan at the next meeting of the Board of Regents in which it was proposed to refuse admission to possibly five hundred students during the next two years.
Evidently these two articles did not please the chief executive. At any rate in the Topeka Daily Capital for March 23 there appeared an interview with Governor Stubbs in which he resented the charges made that his paring of University funds would impair the growth of this institution. He says in part, "In view of the fact that the appropriations for the upkeep and maintenance of the University have increased $400,000 in the last four years, and the further fact that the enrollment has not increased to exceed two hundred, it appears to me that the institution will be able to keep its doors open for the next two years."
Yesterday The Kansan received a communication from Regent W. A. White in which the attitude of The Kansan toward Governor W. R. Stubbs was declared to be unworthy of his actions. This article is printed elsewhere in the paper.
Agitation over the appropriation bill in general has been rife during the past few days and it is expected that there will be something of unusual interest happen when the Regents meet next Tuesday. The Graduate Magazine appeared today and added its voice to the clamor, by branding the governor as a political climber, who is using the University as a means for his political advancement.
Today the Chancellor, when questioned in regard to the Dean Templin statement, said that it was wholly unofficial and that he had nothing whatever to do with its declaration.
An open letter was sent out yesterday by Governor Stubbs to the Regents in which he demands an explanation of all this recent resentment of his actions.

THE GROWTH OF THE UNI VERSITY.
In a recent issue of The University Kansan, an editorial appeared under the title of "Governor Stubbs. Evidently, the state executive considered the article as a thrust at his personal integrity and a few days ago an interview appeared in the "Daily
Capital" in which the Governor attempted to justify his actions in regard to the $40,000 cut in appropriations. The communication printed in today's issue from
the pen of W. A. White clearly
Y indicates the manner in which the
editorial was received by friends
by the governor.
It is not the intention of The Kansan to engage in an argument as to the particular merits of this case, but we do believe that the Governor has made some mistakes both in compiling his statistics and in his personal attitude toward the University. Governor Stubbs bases his reasons for cutting appropriations on the grounds within the past few years the appropriations have increased in greater proportion than the enrollment. It is to be regretted that the Governor by such a statement places himself directly opposed to further growth in the quality of this institution. It is fallacious reasoning to say that a certain per capita should be set for each student and that as enrollment increases, the appropriations for maintenance should increase in just the same proportion. Unless allowance is made for a proper
increase in the quality of the

school, we would proceed along a line that would never tend upwards but would, in a few years lead to a deterioration. It is
A glance at a few figures relative to the University and other institutions in its class, will show that we are far behind these other schools. We find that the comparison of costs per student in various colleges of agriculture places the cost at an average of $256. The average per capita cost for the University of Kansas is $169. We also find that the average per capita cost of Universities for 1909-1910 is $232 as opposed to the per capita cost for the University of $169. We also find that in the matter of salaries of university deans, professors, associate professors, and assistant professors is below the average salaries paid, at other American Universities in our class. It is easily seen, then, that with all the so-called liberality of our legislature in the matter of appropriations, the fact remains that with a greater percentage of students we make less provision for them.
In the opinion of The Kansan the most significant paragraph in Regent W. A. White's communication printed elsewhere in this issue is the last but one. In that paragraph Mr. White says in so many words that the Governor was influenced by political considerations to make that final slash of $40,000 by exercising his veto power. That is just what The Kansan said, but Regent White intimates that the paper was unkind, unfair, and abusive in saying it. The Kansan's concession is that the University, as an institution supported by all the people of the state, should be above partisan considerations. It does not draw its support from one political party, but from the people of all parties. If a state official used it as a pawn in the political game, he is reccrent to his trust. The Kansan has no desire to abuse the Governor of Kansas. It does not believe the Governor knew what harm he was doing the University when he made that last cut. But the harm is done. It is doubly unfortunate that the Governor, who has stood as an exponent of progress has in his dealings with the University taken an attitude that is decidedly reactionary and nonprogressive.
The open letter which Governor Stubbus directed to the Regents Council is highly misleading in a few particulars. "The people who will pay almost a million dollars to the maintenance and support of the University are entitled to thumbs and not criticism, complaints and talk about closing the doors of the institution," says the Governor. It may be well to point out here that the University has not criticised the people of the state. The only criticism that has been made has

been directed against an officer who vetoed the work of the representatives of the people, who might reasonably be supposed to have some idea of what the people wanted in the way of support for state institutions.
ESSENCE OF CHRISTIANTY
Prof. Schweegler Tells of Religious Non-Essentials.
In an address before the Y. M. C. A. Thursday evening, Prof. R. A. Schwegler, of the department of education, made the statement that it is the too close attention to the minor details and petty forms, that causes the dissensions in our modern Christian religions. "One great difficulty with Christianity today, is that we have our minds fixed on the non-essentials," said Professor Schwegler. "The essence of Christianity is identical in all denominations, but it is the less important principles that create disagreements. Before Christ, men strove to get a true conception of God, but their knowledge was warped and one-sided." "Christ canie, a concrete being that might be grasped by man. He is the real personal expression of God himself, and to believe in Him is to have everlasting life. That is the true essence of Christianity."
After Professor Schwegler had concluded his address Melvin Kates gave a piano solo. The lecture was well attended.
JUNIORS STILL BACKWARD
Committee Will Throw Itself on Class Loyalty.
In spite of the appeal of the initiation committee of the Junior Prom for dates to be handed in promptly, members of the class are still lagging way behind. The night of the prom is only five weeks off, and as yet only one-half of the dates are in. The committee is undecided as to just what action to take to bring the class to realize that unless they have a complete list of dates, the final arrangements for the Prom cannot be completed; and any tardiness in finishing arrangements will detract from the success of the event. "Our only hope is to appeal to class loyalty," said a member of the committee this morning.

WHITE RESENTS ATTACK ON STUBBS
EMPORIA EDITOR TAKES FLING AT KANSAN
The Governor Saw That Too Much Expenditure Would Be Political Weapon.
A communication was received by the editor of The Kansas yesterday from William Allen White in which the Regent expresses deep regret that the University publication should attack the recent action of Governor Stubbs in cutting out $10,000 of the University's upkeep and maintenance. The letter follows:
To the Editor of the Kansas:
I am sincerely sorry that you deemed it wise to attack Government Stubbs for his veto on the item for upkeep of the University in the maintenance fund. The amount taken out was not large, and so far, as he was able to learn—so he tells me—from the University authorities, the only matters affected are the proposed under ground conduits for electric wires; and other small items of that nature. Governor Stubbs exercised his veto in several items in other institutions, and while these items were small, not ruining over $50,000 in any instance, the aggregate was considerable, and if he had left an item in the University budget in his home town that was not absolutely needed to keep the University up to its high standard, he would have been justly criticised. Of course the conduits for the electric wires were needed. But so were scores of other things needed by the University and by other educational and penal and charitable institutions that they did not get. The appropriations were increased nearly a million dollars. The Legislature did all it could to keep them down, the Governor Award of the appropriation bills, item by item, and cut out every item that he believed could wait two years. Emporia, for instance, was trimmed a little with the others.
The truth is that the institutions of higher education have grown wonderfully during the eight years last past, and the University has led this growth. These eight years are the years during which W. K. Stubbs has been in politics. His friends do not claim he is responsible for the growth of these institutions; but being from Lawrence, he has had to bear the brunt of the fight for University appropriations. And while making this night in the legislature he carried other highly important enquiries to a successful issue under his leadership—a most difficult task with the weakest of the Legislature in 1903 the Legislature appropriated for the University $124,600 for 1904 and $22,300 for 1905, the first Legislature in increased the University appropriation to $297,000 for 1906 and $270,400 for 1907; during Stubbs third term the Legislature increased the amount appropriated to $367,414 in 1908, and $413,420 for 1909. In his first term as governor the University appropriation was $99,319 for the first year of the biennium and $544,622 for the second year. The Legislature this year made 39 appropriations as follows: $484,920 for 1912 and $564,456 for 1913. The total appropriations for the University since Stubbs went to the Legislature are printed below; they show a steady rise for the University. They follow:
Legislature of 1903... $397,000
Legislature of 1905... $569,600
Legislature of 1907... 780,803
Legislature of 1909... 823,255
Legislature of 1911... $1,019,370
Now Stubbs is no more responsible for these appropriations than are dozens of good men who worked with him in these long latures, and the tax-payers of Kansas who have sustained these men at the polls. For all appropriations for all state institution have been rising. The activity of the state are broadening, and properly so. But in the cam union of both states there are
Anyway about the increases in legislative appropriations. This complaint found expression in the platforms of all the parties, in premises of economy. It was manifest in the Legislature. The governor felt it; he believed he had a duty just as the Legislature had, to cut wherever he could cut, and still leave the institutions unimpaired.
Gov. Stubbs is a Republican he believes in his party and its wisdom. He saw what we all saw, that to leave a dollar in the appropriations that might reasonably be cut out, would be a weapon for the enemies of his party, and he believed, as all Republicans believe who have watched Kansas politics for ten years, and remember the Populus outbreak of the nineties, that to give a Democratic Legislature an opportunity to make the appropriations for Kansas, would turn the clock of progress back half a decade not only for the University, but for all Kansas institutions. So he cut to the bone, but with a friendly hand.
ry
Now it is neither fair nor kind for a University publication, representing as it must University sentiment, to sneer at a man who has never swerved in his loyalty to the University, when his best judgment guides him to a disagreeable, but in his honest judgment, a necessary task.

BANQUET A SUCCESS.
Good Music, Viands and Speeches Tuesday Night.
Seventy students and members of the faculty attended the first annual dinner of the Society of Chemical Engineers, held in the Eldridge house Tuesday evening. The first of the many features of the program was the orchestra, Schneidenkopf (Prof. Bushong), the hornist; M. Le Mutt (Charles composed of Herr Ludolpn Robinson), the flutist; Senor Sin Vaso (F. W. Bruckmiller), who played the keyboard. They played on instruments made by Prof. Bushong several years ago, but used for the first time in Lawrence.
The program booklet contained a list of the toasts and four engineering songs, most of them written by Prof. E. H. S. Bailey. However, the feature of the booklet was the menu. This represented by graphic drawing, the increase of enthusiasm until it was learned that the wine course had been omitted. Thereupon the enthusiasm decreased until the guests discovered that the punch was "spiked." Thereupon it increased until the banquet broke up at 1 o'clock. The decorations were the university colors and chemical apparatus.

Dr. J. F. Maekey acted as toastmaster. The first four toasts were: "To the Country," "The Alma Mater," "To the Faculty," and "To the Yellow Dog." After these Guss Weekly and James Daniels gave an unplanned for toast on "To Ourselfs," claiming that they were of enough importance to merit it. Prof. H. P. Cady then ridiculed the atomic theory. Prof. F. W. Bushong replied with a satiate of "The Ionic Theory." The remaining toasts were by C. C. Young, Edward Weidlein, Emile Grignard, and H. J. Broderson.

"Our link is in excellent condition," said Prof. D. L. Patterson, when interviewed on the field today. "At present we have a nine-hole course, twenty-third hundred yards in length. The spring we will lengthen it twenty-five hundred yards. To use the terminology of the game our course is a "sporty" one. It is full of natural "hazards," such as trees, ditches, creeks, etc. Potter's lake will add another "hazard" to the course, and will also beautify it. Our course completely circles the lake edge."

A printed folder with a list of the officers, committees, and members of the Oread Golf club has just been turned out by the University press. The list shows fifty-seven members, mostly University professors and students. The club has no house and this makes it difficult for the members to become acquainted with one another, and to arrange games. The folder was gotten out with the idea of doing away with any such difficulties. The officers of the club are as follows: President, F. W. Blackmar; secretary, E. M. Briggs; treasurer, D. L. Patterson. The tournament committee, which is composed of D. L. Patterson, C. C. Crawford, J. D. Newton is at present working up a schedule of games with outside teams, which will be completed within two weeks. M. W. Steri ing is captain of the club team.

175 MEN ATTEND SENIOR SMOKER
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, TUESDAY, MARCH 28, 1911
ENTERTAINMENT SATURDAY WAS A GREAT SUCCESS.
At 8:30 o'clock Concert Master Sowers tuned his fiddle, gave a few preliminary flourishes in the air with his bow, said "Let's go!" and the Phi Gam orchestra commenced to play. This symphonic expression by the Greek letter men was the opening of the Senior smoker that was held last Saturday evening in Ecke's hall. And when the orchestra finished their first selection there was enthusiastic and almost hilarious applause from the one hundred and seventy-five men who had gathered in the hall for an evening of fun.
Boxing and Wrestling Bouts Were Interesting-Plans Announced for 1916 Reunion.
ing of训.
The committee in charge of the entertainment had provided a number of wrestling and boxing bouts and the staging of these took up the greater part of the evening. The first thing on the program was a three-round boxing exhibition between "Utah" Smith and "Shadow" Coates. These two young understudies of Doctor Naismith mixed real lively and their exhibition showed much juglaristic skill.
Probably the most interesting bout of the evening was a wrestling match between "Cully" Roberts and "Bob" Hemphill. Roberts was much the shorter of the two, but what he lacked in size he made up in strength and skill The two were to wrestle twenty minutes and they went fifteen, minutes before Roberts secured fall. Neither was able to throw the other in the remaining five minutes
minutes.
"Squirt" Campbell and "Irish" O'Connor went three rounds in a boxing contest. The engineers say that "Squirt" would have scored a knockout if he hadn't lost his chew of tobacco. Anyhow, the referee, A.W. Carrol, declared the fight a draw. Emery and Easterday went twenty minutes in a wrestling contest without a fall. The athletic stunts were followed by several selections by a quartet composed of Musselman, Park, O'Connor and Harlan.
The plans of the class for their reunion in 1916 were discussed by J. W. Murray. Speeches regarding the return were made by Robert Fisher, Ralph Spotts, Robert Johnston and Burton Sears. After the speeches were over the men were told to get in line for their "feed." Sandwiches and coffee were handed out and while refreshments were being served Bramwell and Kates, two friends on the piano, gave an interesting exhibition of duo playing.
A string trio composed of Musselman, Bramwell and Harlan, gave several selections. At 11:30 the party broke up and most of them went to the Thalian party in Fraternal Aid hall.
The Phi Gams have a good orchestra. Their reed section gets some "blue" notes once in a while, but for the most part they show much talent.
Notes.
The strangle hold was barred. Allie Carroll, the referee, tipped off a number of the boys to tell him when it was used, because he didn't know it.
It was great to hear the men singing and yelling as they stood in line.

THE SENIOR PLAY COMPLETED
IS A 3-ACT FARCE, "SISTER YOU'RE WRONG."
Tryout to Be Held April 11— Will Be Produced in F. A. A. on May 18 and 19.
"Sister, You're Wrong," is the title of the Senior play this year. This morning Moe Friedman, chairman of the Senior Play committee, announced that he had completed the play and that try-out for places will be held in Fraser hall on April 11 at 7 o'clock.
"Sister, You're Wrong," is a farce in three acts and is somewhat of a college play. The plot centers around a "white lie," which a brother tells his sister and which leads to a complication between himself, his sister and his sweetheart. The first act is in a student's room and the other two acts take place in a boarding house.
The cast will include twenty people and it is the intention of the management to engage special scenery from Kansas City. The play will be given in Fraternal Aid hall on the evenings of May 18 and 19. The tryout and other rehearsals will be under the direction of Miss Gertrude Mossler.

MUST HAVE PUBLICITY.
Professor Harger Says University Would Die Otherwise.
"By 1913 the attendance at the University of Kansas would be such that the legislature could reduce its appropriations and give each student a private tutor, if all the mails, telegraph wires and other means of communication with the outside world were destroyed. This is what non-publicity would do." The above idea was brought out by Prof. C. M. Harger, director of the School of Journalism, in his chapel address,Tuesday morning on "Publicity."
"Students come to this University because they decide from the advertising that they can spend their money here to the best advantage. There are two sources of publicity, the faculty and the students. The faculty represent the sellers while the students represent the buyers. As in every business the buyers or students are the best advertisers because their praise of the institution is more sincere.
In closing Professor Harger urged the students to help the University by being enthusiastic for it, and by their conduct to impress upon the people that the state university is the best place to obtain an education.
"It is estimated that 96,100 letters go out from the students to the home people every year, figuring that each student writes once a week. These letters are discussed with the neighbors and they are often induced by this means to send their children here instead of to some other school."

THE AFTERMATH.
The past week has been charged with statements and letters and reports that fairly bristle with a certain maladjustment that seems to exist in our University affairs. To some people this airing of the differences of opinion over University appropriations is causing much alarm and they forecast dire results to follow from this controversy. That the matter is being considered by people generally over the state is evidenced by the fact that open letters have been written to various publications, private letters have been sent to several of our faculty members and the question is being argued by voters over the state. The Kansan believes that when the matter has been brought to its final analysis, the University will be vindicated and that the result will be a more solid union between our institution and the administration.
As The Kansan views the situation there is no immediate danger that the doors of the school will be closed to future applicants, and it is also believed that there was no necessity for the seeming indignation by Governor Stubbs, and his subsequent actions. Let us hope that when the affair has been settled the little unpleasantness that has arisen may work as the leaven for a greater and better University.
The University loses a good friend when the term of Regent W. Y. Morgan expires on April 1. He has always been a staunch advocate of anything that would make a progressive institution,
Perhaps it is just as well that this Mexican war seare happened when it did, and Captain Shifler was ordered to get the University military company in readiness for action. Indications are that the company may have to lead a bunch of University insurrectors out and shoot them at sunrise some morning, for the crime of lese majeste against Governor Stubbs.
Farce Rehearsal.
The first sophomore farce rehearsal will be held tonight in Fraser hall, room 110, at 7:30 o'clock.
Ben Stocks, a freshman in the Engineering School, has left the University on account of his eyes.
Baker University, at Baldwin, has agreed to the Kansas University's plan of affiliation in regard to an engineering course, which will be installed at Baker. The plan provides for an arrangement of courses covering the first two years of engineering, with the exception of shopwork. This will enable a student to enter here from Baker, and take his degree with two years' work in the Kansas engineering school. Professor Garrett, of Baker, is here conferring with Dean Marvin in regard to blocking out courses and arranging schedules.

Article by Dean Johnston.
Dean C. H. Johnston, of the School of Education, has written an article on the subject of "Schools of Education." It treats of what the schools attempt to teach, of the basis of their organization, and of their purposes. The article is to be issued in pamphlet form for distribution among teachers. It will, also, appear, in part, in the April number of the Graduate Magazine.
DR. WOLFE RETURNED.
Methodist Students Are Pleased at Action of Conference.
Dr. H. E. Wolfe, pastor of the First Methodist church, was returned to Lawrence by the conference last Monday to serve another year. The Methodist students especially welcome his return because of the effective work he has been doing among them since he has been here. To aid him in his student work the conference gave him permission to retain all of the educational fund that is subscribed here for this work. This will amount to about $225 a year which would otherwise be given to Baker University.
Dr. Wolfe will begin a series of Sunday evening evangelist services Sunday evening to which all students are cordially invited.
Youngest College President.
John Gabbart Bowman, secretary of the Carnegie Foundation, will be the youngest college president in the United States, so far as statistics show. Mr. Bowman, who is 28 years old, accepted the presidency of the Iowa State University today in a letter sent to the Iowa State Board of Education.

FIRST LECTURE ON HISTORY OF JEWS
DR. SAUDERS COMPARES JUDEA AND SAMARIA.
Three More Addresses in Same Series Will Be Delivered This Week.
Dr. Frank K. Sanders of Washburn College, in his talk Monday afternoon traced the history of Israel from the disruption of the kingdom to the fall of Samaria in 722. "The disruption of the kingdom came at the end of Solomon's reign in 937 B.C. For the next two hundred years the kingdom existed side by side, although often at war. The value of this opposition is shown in the fact that the kingdoms represented distinct tendencies. The northern division, Israel, stood for experimentation while the southern division Judea, stood for conservatism, Judea being compact and only one-third as large as Israel, was influenced by one large city, the conservative Jerusalem, which was filled with traditions. On the other hand Israel had a new king, practically new people, and no traditions.
"The curious way in which Israel availed itself of the opportunities offered is shown by the fact that the king was willing to lower the religious standards for political advantages. He married a Phoenician princess, who brought in the Baal religion. Baalism degraded the people and made them less fit for defending their territory. During the fourth dynasty after the disruption of the kingdom, the city of Samaria was built in a very strategic point. In a decade it became the great rival of the capital of the southern kingdom, Jerusalem. It was during this time that Elijah and his heir, Elisha, lived and championed loyalty to God as against Baalism and other religions. The height of Samara's power was now reached although it had to constantly fear the rising empire of Assyria on the North."
This was the first of Dr. Sanders' series of four lectures on "The Six Constructive Centuries of the Jewish Kingdom," giver daily at 3:30 in the lecture room of Snow hall. His subject for today is "From Hezekiah to the Fall of Jerusalem."
KANSAS CLUB BUSY.
K. U. Alumni Meet in Washing ton D. C.
The Kansas club of Washington, D. C., met for an informal dinner at the Brown Betty Inn, on Saturday evening, March 18th. The fact that Congress was not in session took several members away from Washington, but the meeting was thoroughly enjoyed by the two dozen or more who were able to attend.
The business session of the evening was devoted to the election of officers for the ensuing year. Mr. Burton McCullum was elected president in place of Mr. T. B Ford, retired. Mr. George H. Ahlborn was elected vice-president and Mrs. Winifred Everingham Bailey secretary.
The following were present:

$1600 MACHINE RECEIVED.
A Drilling and Boring Apparatus for Fowler Shops.
A machine costing sixteen hundred dollars was received at the Fowler shops last week by Superintendent Frank E. Ward. The machine is to be used for boring, drilling and milling. It weighs seventy-two hundred lbs. and was made by the Lucas Machine Tool Co., of Cleveland, O. A special electric motor will furnish the power when the machine will be ready for use in two weeks. The capacity of the shops will be greatly increased by this addition but the capacity of the machine will not be tested with the present apparatus. The only other university near here to have one of the "Precision" machines is Nebraska.
With this apparatus gas engines or motors such as those used in automobiles can be made. With the present equipment drilling of the required fineness could not be done. However, the new machine is adjusted so as to bore holes to the thousandth of an inch. Superintendent Ward plans to sell motors to students at cost, which will be about $25. Superintendent Ward plans to have the students make two of these motors each week.
This is the first special addition to the Fowler shops in the last twenty-two years. In 1898, when the old shop burned, the state replaced the tools that were destroyed, but no new equipment has been added by any special funds. However, the Fowler shops has built for its own use fourteen engine lathes and several other small machines.
INVENTION FOR ATHLETES.
Dr. Naismith Invents a Kymo-
graph for Runners.
An apparatus for keeping exact tab on a runner at all points of the race course has just been installed on the running track at Robinson gymnasium. The machine, which is the work of Dr. James Naismith, consists of small bamboo sticks, located along the track so as to divide the course into quarters. The sticks project over the track and are hit by the runner as he passes. The bamboo is connected to a make and break electrical machine which transmits the touch of the runner to a kymograph, which holds a lampblacked paper on which marks are made. A clock is used in connection with the kymograph.
"By this means," said Dr. Naismith, "we tell just where a man runs his best and where he gets his second wind. It will be of great value in training."
Professor Dockeray will also use the machine for obtaining data on fatigue, for his classes in experimental psychology.
Flunks at Cornell.
Eighty-eight students have been dropped from Cornell university for failure to maintain a satisfactory standing in their work during the first semester. These delinquents are distributed among the colleges as follows: In arts and sciences, 16; in law, law, 8; in agriculture, 21; in veterinary medicine, 1; in architecture, 2; in civil engineering, 24; in Sibley college, 16.

Experience a Good Teacher.
A boy raised in Kansas would think the whole world is flat, if he didn't travel nor learn geography. A child born in a Dakota cyclone cellar may know nothing about Chicago "sky scrapers"—and the man who has never worn clothes tailored to order by Ed. V. Price & Co., doesn't know the difference between temporary and constant satisfaction at a modest price. Samuel G. Clarke, 910 Mass. St., will take your measure.
Do you know that lots near the University have doubled in value in the last two years? Do you know that some land near K. U. has sold and resold netting the owners over 500 per cent profit?
Do you know that both the University and the land adjoining are there forever and to stay and that hundreds invested in land adjoining K. U. will mean thousands as the University grows and the land adjoining the same increases in value? You can buy beautiful lots 50 ft front, within 412 feet of the University ground for $200 to $250.

THIRD ADDRESS ON INDIVIDUAL WORTH
SHAILER MATHEWS DISCUSSES RELATION TO JESUS.
Apparent Inconsistencies in Bible Explained—Considers Christ's Answers Remarkable.
Dean Shailer Mathews gave the third of his series of talks on "The Teachings of Jesus," yesterday afternoon in the chapel. His subject was "The Teaching of Jesus as to the Worth of the Individual."
"The civilization of the time of the Jewish kingdom dealt with individuals or citizens only as he was a part of a great people. But on the other hand, Jesus said that each individual was great if he would trust in Jehovah. There are very few instances of real individuality of the citizens in the Bible, except in the seventeenth Song of Solomon, where it refers somewhat to the individual in the words, 'they shall all be the sons of God.'
"Jesus did not live in a remote period and in an out of the way place, but in the center of the Eastern civilization. The United States is more like this period of Roman history than like England in the sixteenth century.
"One of the providential things is that we must take the concise teachings of Jesus instead of abstract instances. The Bible seems to show inconsistences in the Master's teachings, but it must be remembered that he was an occasional speaker and not a constant writer. His answers to questions thrust at him at any time by friends or enemies are remarkable."
Dean Mathews gives the fourth of his series this afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in the chapel on "Teaching of Jesus as to Wealth."
R. JOHNSON ASSAULTED
Alumnus Badly Beaten by an Irate Father.
Ralph Johnson, '08, whose former home was at Cottonwood Falls, and who is now teaching school at Orchard, a district close to Boise City, Idaho, recently was assaulted by the irate father of some of his pupils, according to the newspapers of that city. Johnson had reported to the county superintendent the absence of the man's children from school and for so donig the father chose to waylay and beat him. When Johnson was about to defend himself a half dozen other men stepped up and his assailant threatened to kill him if he resisted.
Johnson has written relatives that he has no intention of giving up the school and that he is doing everything possible to land the gang in jail. The newspapers of Boise City indicate that the community is aroused and that a wholesale prosecution of residents in the school district may follow.

A school for forest rangers, to consist of a two-year course, winters being spent at the university, and summers in practical work on the state reserves, or in lumbering operations, in the field, may be started in Wisconsin. The proposed school would occupy a unique position, for, outside of the Pennsylvania Ranger School, and those established by the Federal forest service in connection with some of the Far Western institutions, no attempt has been made to meet this demand for expert foresters.
Harvard is soon to have adequate chemical laboratories.

POWER OF NEWS STORY.
More Influence Than Editorial Says Dean Mathews.
"The man who shapes the newspaper, story has more influence than does the editorial writer today, for the latter follows rather than creates public opinion. Let me write the headlines if I am to create public opinion by the newspaper," said Dean Shailer Mathews, in his address on "The Teacher and Public Opinion" in his lecture Saturday afternoon to the teachers attending the high school conference.
"The analogy between teaching and the work of the newspaper may be continued further if the teacher accepts the law of the advertising man that his success comes from making people want something in addition to what they already possess," said Dean Mathews. "If the teacher is a contagious idealist he can not only create a want in his pupils for larger truth but can do much in helping them to supply this want."
"With the teacher moreover, the personal opinion is of great importance because with children it often takes precedence over the statements of parents. The handling of the material taught is as important as the analogous treatment of news in the paper, because the impression made upon the pupil is the valuable element of the instruction.
"Another way in which teachers may create public opinion is to make one nationality out of many. The school is the great agency that is creating a common attitude of mind that shall be truly American. Teachers should look upon themselves as coordinate with editors, preachers and all who are creating the greater tomorrow that is to be."

The exponents of the hyperbolie and the parabaloid intend to make Engineer's Day the most spectacular and epoch-making event in the history of the school. The committee in charge of the program for the day announced today that the floats are all completed and that if the weather permits, that from 10 o'clock tomorrow morning until late at night there will be a continuous round of pleasure that will rival the attractions in a Barnum and Bailey circus.
At 12:15 the parade will start. For weeks the engineers have been working on the floats that are to appear in this wonderful pageant and it is intimated that there will be some clever takeoffs on university life. The parade will be headed by the University band and the engineering professors will ride in automobiles. The procession will end as McCook field, where dinner will be served. Each can is expected to bring his lunch in a dinner pail and hot coffee will be served free of charge.

AWARD CONTRACTS
Board of Regents Award Contracts for the Hospital at Rosedale.
At a meeting of the Board of Regents in Kansas City last Tues day, the contracts for the erection and equipping of the Rosedale hospital were let. The general contract was allowed to J. B. Betts, of Topeka for $34,997. The contracts for plumbing and gas piping were let to Johnson and Bell of Topeka for $3,545. The W. T. Osborne Construction company of Kansas City received the contract for the electric wiring and the signal system for $665.
Y.M.-Y.W. PARTY SATURDAY
The contractors were instructed to begin work at once so that as much as possible could be completed by the first of July.
Good Food and Many Stunts for Entertainment.
All students of the University are invited to the joint W. W.—Y. M. C. A. party which will be held in Robinson gymnasium Saturday evening, April 1. No admission will be charged. The entertainment will be in the nature of an old-fashioned barn party and will take the place of the regular post-exam. jubilee of these two organizations, which was postponed this year on account of a conflict with the K. C. A. C.-Kansas basket-ball game, which was scheduled in the gymnasium for Feb. 4. The stunts will begin at eight o'clock and the social committees of the two organizations have prepared an excellent program of musical numbers, a spelling match, Virginia Reel and entertainments of like nature.
A very delicate and expensive instrument, known as a Kelvin Double Bridge, has recently been installed in the testing laboratory of the School of Electrical Engineering. It is used for determining the conductivity of electrical conductors, finding temperature co-efficients, and for the accurate measurement of low resistances.
For refreshments the associations have put forth their best efforts, and have prepared something really substantial. "Homemade eats of the old-fashioned kind and plenty of them," said one of the committee this morning.
The advisory boards of both the Y. W. and Y. M. will be present and Beulah Murphy and Alan Park, chairmen of the social committees, have charge of arrangements.

DIVORCE PROBLEMS BY DEAN MATHEWS
PEOPLE THINK OF MARRIAGE AS LEGAL CONTRACT.
Although Polygamy is Past, Vice Is Still Carried Out by Divorce Law.
"The Teaching of Jesus as to the Family" was the subject of Dean Shailer Mathews in his chapel address Wednesday afternoon. The prevailing thought of the address was that Jesus regarded men and women as souls and not merely parties to a marriage contract.
"Jesus," said the speaker, "was far in advance of the day and taught that wherever marriage was treated loosely by a nation, that nation would soon fall. Moreover, Jesus did not consider a woman as of no importance, as was the custom of that day, but allowed her fundamental rights. The Master never spoke against polygamy as such, nor against any particular vices as did his follower, Paul. Although the days of polygamy had passed that vice was still legal. Divorce was common, but there were few cases where a woman was allowed that privilege. However, a husband could divorce a wife by simply showing his disfavor of her. He could marry as easily, for wives cost only a few cents. Moses made divorce more difficult by compelling the contracting parties to have certificates of divorce.
"Precious as marriage is, Jesus was not a married man, because he thought that working for the kingdom of God was far more precious, and to that he concentrated his life. We think of marriage now as more of a legal contract and not as the great thing which it really it. This is shown by the hastiness of so many marriages which rarely prove happy and ultimately end in divorce. Children brought up in unhappy homes can not have the same reverence for marriage that other children can.
"The remaining members of the family, children, are mentioned only once in all of the Old Testament. This is in the clause, 'and children shall play in the streets.' In the New Testament they are mentioned several times. One of the few cases in which Jesus became angry was when his disciples pushed back the children who were brought for His blessing.
COEN CHOSEN EDITOR

WAS ONE MAN SHY.
Kansas Had A Short Team to Debate the Short Ballot.
Owing to a misunderstanding in the contract for the Colorado debate at Boulder, April 12, Prof. G. A. Gessell will have to break in a new man in the next two weeks. Clem Parker, a senior law, has been chosen as the third man on the western debate. Professor Gessell understood that there would be but two men on a side. Colorado, however, is positive that the arrangement was for three men. The two men previously chosen to represent Kansas are A. H. Fast, a middle law, and A. O. Andrew, a senior law. The question to be discussed is: "Resolved that the short ballot should be adopted in state, county and municipal elections."
SHERWIN IS COACH
Salary of $2,000 to Football Coach—Half Paid by the Association.
Ralph Arthur Sherwin, of Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire, was named as football coach for the University of Kansas at a meeting of the Athletic association, held here yesterday afternoon. The new coach will also have charge of the baseball department. He will report he e about September 1. of this year. He graduated from Dartmouth last year with a degree of Bachelor of Science.
Sherwin is considered one of the best football men in the East today. He has been a member of the Dartmouth team for four years and in the Princeton game of 1908 he proved himself one of the best tackles in the country. Sherwin received his earlytraining in football while he was a member of the Cushing Academy team. During his last year at Cushing he was captain of the eleven. Last fall he was a member of the New York Times' team, one of the strongest elevens in the East. The new Kansas coach was chosen All-American tackle for two years, which is a distinction that few western coaches enjoy.
He will be paid a salary of about $2,000 and he will be on the regular pay roll of the University with the title of assistant physical instructor. The state will only pay $1,000 of this amount while the athletic board will make up the deficiency.
Medical Society Met
Dr. Mills, of Topeka, and Dr. M. T. Sudler were the speakers at the regular meeting of the University of Kansas Medical society last evening. The former spoke on "The Hospital System of New York City;" the latter talked on the "Future Hospital in Rosedale. One of the Most modern in the State." Refreshments were served.
Pictured a Busy Library.
A photograph of the library of the School of Law was taken for the Senior annual yesterday. Some of the "laws" who have hardly seen the inside of the library before this year, were at the front tables, it is said, each confronted by a big stack of large books.
Dr. J. J. Wolf, professor of medicine at Rosedale, spoke to the members of the Phi Beta Pi medical fraternity last evening. The subject of his talk was "Student Life in Germany." Dr. Wolf is a graduate of Heidelberg.

Student Tickets $1.50 at the K. U. Postoffice or from student representatives
The Athletic board at its meeting yesterday afternoon decided to throw down the bars in baseball and to make all students eligible to play the game unless they have been connected with organized baseball. The action taken was in line with the recommendations made by the Student Council a week ago. It coincides with student sentiment as far as that sentiment has been expressed.
ATHLETIC RESTRICTIONS
ENLARGED BY BOARD.
The members of the board have drawn up rules under which the members of the varsity team will be certified. The other two schools in the conference which are scheduled to play games with the University of Kansas this year may play or not as they see fit, the members of the Board say. The University can not undertake to certify its players on any other basis.
A Set of Rules Are Drawn Up to Be Sent to Conference Schools
The following rules were drawn up by the association at their meeting yesterday morning:
At the meeting of the Athletic association yesterday morning the following members of this year's basket-ball team were awarded Ks: Captain Heizer, Long, Stuckey, Dousman and Larson. The following members of last year's tenis team were also given Ks: Bigelow, Watson, Wood and Seedon.
Two Destitute Topeka Lads Are Sent to University Hospital.
KABIES TREATED FREE
First—I have not been a member of any league ball team, playing ball under the National agreement of professional baseball clubs.
Second—I have never played ball as a business or have never made my living playing ball. Third—I agree to sign the above statement anew each year that I shall become a candidate for the university baseball team.
A copy of these rules will be sent to every school in the conference, and the athletic board feels that it is complying with the conferences in having a uniform eligibility rules for each school.
This afternoon Governor Stubbs telephoned to Chancellor Strong inquiring as to the possibility of the University taking care of two boys in Topcka who have been bitten by dogs that are afflicted with the rabies. It has been found that it costs the University about $50 for the actual material used in treating a case of rabies. Doctor Hoxie, of the hospital at Rosedale, reports that the University physicians at the hospital will treat free of charge all applicants who are afflicted, but that some provision must be made for the cost of material used in treatment.
Uncancellor Strong announced that the University would provide the necessary medical treatment for the two Topeka boys who are said to be almost entirely without funds. One of the boys was bitten yesterday and the other was bitten this morning.

A TRUE STATEMENT.
No fairer statement of the situation in which the University finds itself regarding appropriations has been made than is found in the following terse and pointed editorial in the Kansas City Star. In this matter the University is not to be considered as an institution apart, but in its relation to the state. The Star says:
"Kansas is a state which has banished illiteracy, taken particular pride in its educational system and built up with infinite pains a great state university that ranks among the foremost institutions in the country.
"The politicians who this year cut down the funds for the University $82,000 below the total of two years ago have failed utterly to read the Kansas spirit. The best in education is none too good for the state's young men and women. To impair the efficiency of the University is not the way to get the support of the people of Kansas."
THE BASE BALL TEAM.
At last the baseball situation has cleared. For the past few months there has been considerable speculation as to what action the Athletic Board would take in the matter, and it was generally considered that our varsity nine for this year would have to be recruited from strictly amateur players. According to the rule established yesterday, all those who have not played in organized baseball are eligible for the team.
In view of the general uncertainty over baseball that exists among the other schools in the Conference, the action of the board was the only logical and practical thing to do. The other schools have stood or a certain degree of leniency in the rules and if Kansas was to play ball with schools in her class, it was necessary to make some rules that were not too stringent.
The Kansan believes that the Board was right in its action yesterday. If baseball is to be played by a nine that is representative of this schol, let us make a creditable showing as compared with other schools. The mere fact that a man has received a few dollars for playing a few games of ball in his home town, ought not to bar him from playing on a varsity team. A strictly amateur rule in regard to baseball is not the solution of the problem in its relation to the University.
Gaston's Idea of Kemp
Harry H. Kemp, tramp poet, is in town. Mr. Kemp is selling so much verse nowadays, and is in such a high state of prosperity,
that the hoboes have cancelled his "card" and expelled him from their union. Mr. Kemp, by the way, is one of those who does not believe art can be expressed by the need of a haircut and a flowing cavat.—Topeka Daily Capital.
CAPITAL LAUGHS LAST.
Is Taking Over the Muckraking Magazines, Says Dr. Mathews.
"The day of the muckraking magazine in America is past," said Dean Shailer Mathews, editor of The World Today, in his address before the classes in journalism yesterday.
"The taking over of the American Magazine by the Morgan syndicate marks an epoch in magazine history. The financial condition of many of the great publications is not sound, and it may be only a matter of time until they are all acquired by the capitalists. While this may make no apparent change in the editorial policy of the different publications, it will most certainly put an end to muckraking journalism. If Tom Lawson desires to enter that field again, he will have to issue a publication of his own."
"If there is any business in which you may see your money going for nothing, absolutely nothing, it is in the magazine business. All your expenditures go toward increasing your subscription list, and subscriptions are liabilities. Every copy of a magazine costs more to produce than it is sold for, and the publisher must depend on advertising for his profit, which is generally small enough. The aim of every company is to secure a large enough circulation list to

appeal to the advertiser, and he will willingly sacrifice the price of subscription in order to gain this end."
In conclusion Dr. Mathews spoke concerning the general makeup of a periodical, and the duties of the editor: "The head of a magazine must imagine himself to be his own constituent, and view prospective copy from the reader's point of view, forgetting his own likes and dislikes."
Dr. James Naismith, chapel director, has gone to New York on business. He will be absent from the University two weeks.

TO INSTALL COAL WASHER
New Machine Will Improve the Grade of Coal.
A coal washing plant to cost approximately $1300 will be installed in the ore dressing laboratory of the mining annex, under the supervision of C. M. Young, associate professor of mining engineering. The work of installation will be started in two weeks and will be partly done by students of the department. The plant will be ready for operation by the first of July. This will be the third plant to be established in universities in the United States, the only other plants being at Ohio State and Alabama Universities.
The plant will be used for testing coal to see if its heat efficiency can be raised by washing. The washing process removes all shale from the raw product. The plant will also be used for student instruction. It consists of a system of crushers, screens, bins and jigs. It is in the jigs that the washing proper takes place, and they will have a capacity of one ton of coal per hour. The machine is also of practical use in washing the different ores. Tests of the coal of the various state mines will be made.
"This plant will be the most important piece of machinery in the mining school," says C. M. Young. "It will help to improve the grade of coal marketed in this state."
Valuable Books Received.
The library has received for the English department the complete set of Hunterian Club publications of 55 parts. The Club publishes reprints of rare and out-of-the-way pieces of English literature. These sets are excessively rare and scarce, and each volume is a little more than an inch thick and of about a thousand pages each, and are very light to handle. The books have been in preparation for some time and show excellent acquisitions by scholars both American and English.

CLOTHES INSTRUCTION
THE above illustrates the modern method of the London Cold Water Shrinking process, applied to fabrics used in STRATEFORD SYSTEM CLOTHES. The cloth
Cold Water Stirring process, applied to fabrics used in STRATFORD SYSTEM CLOTHES. The cloth is placed on a roller and slowly drawn through a vat of cold water. As it leaves the vat, the cloth is met by two showers which produce a steady stream on both sides of the fabric. Thus the water applied is uniformly distributed, and consequently the fabric is evenly shrunk. This done, the goods are hung on racks and permitted to dry by air and exposure.
The best tailor in America could not treat a fabric so thoroughly, no matter how good his intention. It has taken years of experimenting to perfect this method, and requires men to handle it who have made the shrinking of cloths a life's work.
A Stratford suit may get too small if you outgrow it, but it will never shrink smaller. As a result of this process, and the superior tailoring of Stratford System Clothes, they are positively shape retaining. They are the recognized best in every Metropolis.

HOW MISFORTUNE BUILT A RELIGION
DR. SANDERS REVIEWS ORIENTAL HISTORY.
Why Geographical Position of Judah Affected Biblical History.
President Frank K. Sanders gave the third of his series of talks Wednesday afternoon on "The Exile aid its Interpreter."
"The period," according to Dr. Sanders, "was from 586 to 538 B.C. During this half century of prophetic prosecution three great things happened to Judah. These were the conflict with the rising power of Assyria, the introduction of the deuteronomic law, and to the idea among the thinkers that one must suffer religiously to work successfully.
"During this period Judah would have fallen at any time had she been aggressive. However, she behaved well and was left unmolested. One reason for this was that the country had the great advantage of being in the hills and not in the routes of commerce. On the other hand the northern kingdom, Israel, lay in the direct path of all armies passing through the country and the land was momre fertile. Consequently Israel suffered severely from marauders.
"Babylonia gradually became the great power before which the Assyrian empire went to pieces. The Babylonian ruler left Judah alone, but the Judeans became restless and wished to open hostilities. However, one of their countrymen, Jeremiah, persuaded them to remain at peace and acknowledge the political power of their neighbor. Finally his countrymen would no longer listen to reason and so declared war. The Babylonians immediately conquered them, for the people were weak, and led them into captivity. Jerusalem was burned and the nobles and others who might be dangerous to Babylonia were exiled.
"Then Cyrus, king of the rapidly irising Persian empire, captured most of Asia Minor and freed the people of Judah."

Following are the girls: Leora Kuchera, Grace O'Neil, Frances Banker, Josephine Rushmer, Sarah Morrison, Nellie Carrier, Beatrice Neumiller, and Lois Harger.

The first rehearsal was held Tuesday night in room 110 Fraser ball, and the second rehearsal will be held Tuesday evening, April 4, at North College. Miss Gertrude Mossler wil direct the rehearsals.

CHARACTER OF CHRIST.
Mathews Expresses Opinion of Christianity at Y. M.
The Y. M. C. A. meeting held Wednesday evening was addressed by Dean Shailer Mathews. His subject was "The Conquering Character of Christ." Dr. Matthew's idea of Christianity is to try and be like Jesus and to believe that he is God.
"A person should have an image of the Savior. If ever any one tries to be like Jesus and to go to him, he will come to help you. Jesus was a great fighter not with weapons, but with convincing arguments. Even though you do not believe in Christ, do you have a conception of any God that is better? It is far easier and better to believe in the Christian God than to have your own conception."
