His "Three Squares" Will Cost Student $5 Per This Year
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS MONDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 17, 1917.
Landladies Decide On Raise At Recent Meeting—Some to Offer $4.50 Rate
Many Co-op Clubs to Start
High Cost of Food Stuffs The Cause of Increase In Board
The price of board for students this year will be five dollars, decided on at a recent meeting attended by most of the boarding house keepers of Lawrence. A few clubs may give a $4.50 rate and others will ask $5.50. An unusually large number of students are expected to combat the high prices by starting co-operative clubs. Several were in operation last year, the work being done in turn by the members of the club, and the plan was quite satisfactory.
The boost in the price of board is made necessary because of the increased cost of food. At this time last year a raise from $4.00 to $4.50 was announced for similar reasons, and it has become clear such a stage that boarding house keepers say $5 board is necessary. Some boarding house keepers found it necessary to raise the price to five dollars last spring. Fraternities and other organizations have their own tables also will ask advanced rates from their members.
The prices for rooms will remain practically the same as last year. The supply of available rooms is only slightly decreased by some landlazies giving up their homes while the number of students is expected to be less. Competition will keep the price of a room below that is probable that the contracts to be signed by a student for at least half a year will be enforced more than before because of the necessity of keeping houses filled to capacity.
ROOM RENT THE SAME
The Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. are at the service of the students in finding rooms and also in securing employment. Lists of approved rooming places for men and for women may be had in the office of the secretary of each association in Myers Hall.
These organizations get many calls for help from townpeople and all available jobs are being listed for the benefit of students. Students may make their application for work at the office of the secretaries and will be offered work as fast as the calls come in.
WOMEN TO TRY LIGHT HOUSEKEEPING
Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, reports that many young women are planning to cut down their living expenses by engaging rooms for light housekeeping. This practice has been in vogue for several years. Sentiment at the University during the spring semester of 2014 University Commons and a cafeteria, but the legislature has not made any allowance for a Commons and no room is available for the establishment of one at this time. The three state normal schools are ahead of the University in this respect for they each have a cafeteria.
Students Must Scrape To Make Bible True
Not only must attention be called to the high cost of living this year but the cost of high living must come in for its worth of consideration.
Since the advent of the student all of the venders of "cats" have advanced prices of necessary treats by all of the ice cream concoctions.
Smooths, a popular nickle drink last year, have advanced to a dime at all soda fountains. Sundaes are fifteen cents and when the "sweet young thing" asks for more than a one-colored decoration on the ice the forewheel here will pay twenty-even. Matted milks will cost fifteen.
the banana split has gone to twenty cents.
enough for the soda fountain. At the barber shop students will be asked for ten cents more for a haircut than they were taxed last year and more for tonics. Collars, both hair and soft have jumped a nickle each.
All of this and more since those "K" books went out and told the folks at home that we could get through school here this year on $325. To stay in those bounds "dates" must smile when they are asked for their order and declare that they would lots rather take a coke than a banana split. When they know they wouldn't.
William Omar Made Life
Busy for Wisconsin Fish
W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics, spent the summer fishing in Wisconsin lakes. He said the men who inhabit the woods are exceptionally tough, and that a tenderfoot could not stand the life there.
The manager stayed in the woods all summer with the old woodsmen, trappers, and guides, and had a great time. When he returned he had the head of a large fish on the front of his radiator as a proof of his success. It is understood that he caught the fish.
Plain Tales
You, Mister Freshman have read what the Kansan business manager said to you in his summer letter. He said that the "Plain Tales from the Hill" was the gossip column and all scandal that ever takes place on this high old Hill is heralded over land and sea in this column, that any thing can happen and we should know that is anyway cute it is in this column; that everything catty that isn't in the Society Column goes into this column.
So that is what you are to look for this winter in this column. Maybe it won't always be there but the business manager said something when he said it. So today we record the summer and the things some of the better known of the elite of the Hill did on their summer vacations.
Thus:
We know of about two hundred University men who are glal to return. Those are the men who have been boeing corn and fighting potato bugs in the hope of beating the Kaki virus, which is expected spring when the Chancellor said that they could go with their grades made. Just imagine getting up at 5 o'clock each a. m., milking the cows, feeding the chickens and watering the rest of the stock before they were harvested. Well, that's what the two hundred did. Now wouldn't you be glad to get back to school?
Tis a far cry from steward of a fraternity where the boys are used to eating T-bone steaks and fried chicken every other meal to mess sergeant of an engineering company where a chef bits a meal with beans, soup, and onions for the main hickies on the menu. But that is what has happened to "Willie" Stewart, a Phi Ski from shadow from school to get his grades for earlift. They made him mess sergeant of this company. Hence the far cry.
Eusebio C. Barba, the Philippine Island student in the School of Law last year is now assistant law clerk in the Bureau of Public Works in Manila. He returned to Manila last summer as soon as he had completed his studies by way of Estes Park where he attended the Y. M. C. A. conference.
William Dye is a private in Company M, Lawrence. Now it must be awful to have to go to France with those seventy-five centimeter guns shooting all around and bombs bursting in the name of Will Dye attached to you.
Barba came to the United States with the avowed determination to take medicine. In some manner he landed in Lawrence. As an introduction to medicine he was taken into the fabled and proverbial stiff room in the basement of the Museum. But Barba decided he didn't like medicine and its accompanying corpses. So he took law.
What's the attraction in California? Is it that the moon is mystic and the climate canducive to all things romantic? Anyway three women who would have been seniors on the Hill this year are entering the University of California this semester. They are Arline Griffiths, Mignonette Uhl and Bertha Eichenauer Latimer.
Well, we have come to the end of this column for the day. You now ought to have an idea of what is wanted for this column. So if you see a gray moping along on the camel trail and halt, tell him and legations stop him and tell him a Plain Tale. He will appreciate it. And use it.
The boys of Company M tell a story on Bill which happened last week. Bill, being fairly well trained in the art of drilling was made as assistant to Bill and his squaud was back of the line and it was Bill's duty to even up the line. He marched his company up to the line and then he forgot how to stop it. Think and breathe as hard as he would and come. So being used to handling mules and cows Bill yelled, "Whoa." The squad "whoased."
Chancellor Strong Greets Students
D. W. HALYON
Captain Jones Attended
Trench Warfare Schoo
Capt. Frank E. Jones of Company M, First Kansas Infantry, attended the Trench Warfare School held at Washington, D. C., August 6 to 16. He was one of the two men from the Kansas-Missouri division and one of the thirty-two guard officers in attendance.
To the Students of the University:
The course consisted of lectures given under the direction of the Chief of the War College Division. Many of the lectures were by French officers who had had experience in wrenches. Among the things stressed were the training for trench warfare, individual training, company training, battalion training, ammunition supply, hand and rifle grenade throwing, use of machine guns and automatic rifle, employment of artillery fire, heavy weaponry, infantry intelligence, use of air-craft, operation orders and havenet drill.
Military men here believe that Captain Jones will be used at Ft. Sill to supervise the training of the officers in modern methods of warfare.
It has been my custom and pleasure for a long time to welcome our students back to their college home in the opening issue of The Kansan. In spite of the fact that hundreds of us have served our services to their country and will not be with us we are starting the year with high hopes.
I trust we may have unity of effort and high standards of personal conduct and intellectual endeavor during the whole of the year before us. Let us determine that nothing unworthy of the reputation of the University we all love shall mar the course of the year.
(Signed) FRANK STRONG,
Laurens E. Whittimore, instructor in the department of physics at the university last year, will work for the government at Washington, D.C., while on a leave of absence from school. He will also will be assistant physicist in the radiotelography laboratory of the bureau of standards. Work as head of the wireless instruction at K. U. last semester fitted him for the new work in the cast as well as his ex-situ studies as a weka high school along similar lines.

Instructor Leaves K. U.
For Government Position
The members of the Kappa Alpha Theta alumni and active chapters in Kansas City entertained with a luncheon at the Muebach Hotel last week in honor of the freshmen women who will enter K. U. this fall.
Mr. Whittemore was in charge of the wireless course at the University last year until the government ordered the station dismantled. Mr. Whittemore, L.D. White, D.L. Whittemore, who was superintendent of the Topeka city schools.
Your Subscription Is Needed!
Today or tomorrow there'll be a white-ribboned solicitor for the DAILY KANSAN approach you, and ask for your subscription.
Give it to him.
He is not on a charity mission, nor soliciting for a fake—but asking your support toward a K. U. institution that is fifteen years old this Fall. He is only asking you to pay three dollars for 165 issues of the breeziest college newspaper published—that's value received, indeed!
That institution—your paper—published for you by University men and women—needs your support and is just as worthy of receiving it as school athletics or any University activities. Everyone of them should be on your list!
The KANSAN'S only obligation is to its readers—and the student in particular. For his benefit, it is published. It is the "mouthpiece" of the student body.
So when that solicitor says, "Subscribe for the Kansan?" just show your school colors by answering him—
But subscribers the KANSAN must have at least two thousand strong!
"You bet!"
I thank you.
Sincerely

Registrar Predicts Enrollment Of 3,000 Students—1,200 Frosh
Basing Claim on Large High School Graduation and Number Already Registered, George O. Foster Believes Attendance At K. U. Will Fall Below Normal
War Takes Upperclassmen, Cutting Off Annual Increase
University Marshall Changes System of Registration Doing Away With Tiresome Features and Giving Entire Main Floor of Gym to Work
Engineers and law students enroll at their respective buildings.
All registration in southeast part of Robinson Gymnasium, entrance by east front door. Wednesday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
All Fine Arts, Medic, and College students enter Robinson Gymnasium to enroll by front center doorway.
All freshmen in College and School of Fine Arts will enter the same building by the west front entrance.
All enrollment Tuesday and Wednesday from 8 to 12 a. m.
and 1 to 5 p. m.
Today is the big registration day for the University of Kansas. When the final results are tabulated, Registrar George O. Foster expects to have a total of 3,000 students enrolled.
All registration today will be in the southeast part of the first floor of Robinson Gymnasium. All students will enter by the east main entrance, where the Registrar and his corps will have charge of the work. Wednesday will be the last day that any person can register without paying an extra fee of $1 for late registration.
He bases, part of this large enrollment on the fact that 9,000 students graduated from the high schools of Kansas alone, and he hopes to have 1,200 freshmen enter K. U. from that body. This figure will fall 438 short of the total enrolled last semester.
ENROLLMENT STARTS TO MOMORROW Enrollment will be the program Tuesday and Wednesday, and Prof. J. L. Chase worked out a new and much improved system of enrolling the students this year. There may be some waiting but the students will be able to make out their program of work for the coming year in a simpler and the satisfactory way than ever before.
The first feature of the new plan to expedite registration will be to have the freshmen go in at the west front entrance where they will be placed immediately after an order in being called to the large gymnasium enrolling room on the second floor. But these will be the only numbered cards given out during the entire enrollment. All freshmen will go into the boys' gymnasium for training and practice, and will wait in chairs until their number is called from the floor above.
TAKE TWENTY AT A TIME
THE yearning will be called in groups of twenty, but for they go to the big gymnasium above the will write their names on a paper and this sheet will be taken to the doorkeeper above who will look up the student's transcript card. In this way there will be no waiting at the doorway leading to the enrollment floor, which in the past has meant endless delay and tiresome standing for the students.
The other college students, as well as fine arts and medic students, will go in through the main entrance and on up to the balcony of the big gymnasium. There they will be seated in rows as they come in, according to their class. They will be called groups of ten and twenties, the whole row moving up as a group is called. Before going to the floor which the balcony overlooks, they will write their names on a sheet of paper as the freshmen were required to do. The seniors and specials will enter the floor from the northeast corner with phomores and juniors will enter by the east end of the hall. Freshman will enter from the west end en trance.
OBTAIN MORE FLOOR SPACE
OBTAIN MORE FLOOR SPACE
By having the enrollment on the large gymnasium floor, the University authorities have obtained more floor space and better ventilation as a crowd will fill the room. As soon as there is a chance for more to come down to the floor to enroll, the head supervisor of each group will signal to the man in charge of the class on the balcony above. To further facilitate matters, those who can not get on the balcony
floor and who do not wish to stand on the stairs can sit in the boy's gymnasium in the west end of the building.
Registration will continue Tuesday and Wednesday in the east end of the first floor of the gymnasium. All who register will have to enter from the east entrance and go to the other entrances to get their places in enrollment for the day. All law and engineering students will enroll for work in their respective buildings, after they have registered.
GUARDS MOVE OUT
Actual class work at the University will not start until Thursday.
Friday, the University marshal, Professor Wheeler, was busy getting the two floors ready for the first work. Company M, the University company of the Kansas national guard has moved out and is encamped in tents across the street from the gymnasium. Most of the equipment already has been moved from the building. Capt. F. E. Jones, in command of the unit, voluntarily took the men in the gymnasium, saying that the guard should get used to conditions in the field and be cramped quarters. Because of the lack of tents, some of the men will sleep in the gymnasium during the night and move their equipment out for the day.
s'ity will not start until Thursday.
The total registration at the University of Kansas Saturday was 394, as against 420 registered the corresponding Saturday a year ago. The total number of names registered so far this year up till Saturday night when the registration closed, were closed, was 576. At the same time last year there were 840 students registered, or a decrease of 264 students. Whether the regular registration days this week will bring up the total to the 15 per cent decrease expected is yet to be seen.
Breezy Line-up of Humorous Stories Characterizes September Number
First Sour Owl of Year Swoops Down To Greet Students
The Sour Owl, the University num-orous publication, swiped down on Mount Oread in the first edition of *Mining*. The breezy line-up of feature material.
The September issue is a "War
Freeman number and is part of the
subject matter of our subject
titles."
The cover, done in crimson and blue, is a fine piece of color engraving. A crimson owl stands out in a field of blue.
The "lead" story of the issue, "The Owl Writes from Riley," gives some inside materials on the happenings at the camp in which the K. U. men take a tangle. Rumor has it that a woman wrote to the camp who read the of the opinion that only a man could get the details as they are given.
The issue is alive with clever drawings by local artists. R. W. Graham, a private in the headquarters comedy company Kansas Infantry, a student in the eminent theater last year, has drawn many of the cartoons, including a double-page "spread" of illustrated war cartoons. The latest "dope" on local celebrities is given under the title, "The Little Books," and with the wisdom of the old oil罐 the events are chronicled with all regard to the truth.
"The will be four editions of the Owl this year," says Lawson May, the editor, "the students are taking a greater interest in the publication of late. Many of the students put in much of their summer working on the book." We think we have held up the standard set by the Owl last year."
Ray Walters is the business manager of the Owl and Eugene Dyer is the advertising manager. The Owl and Eugene pay by the Owls, the junior class society.
The next number of the Owl will be out Thanksgiving and students and faculty members are urged to contribute material for that issue.

Although Kansas probably has lost more athletes than any other school in the Missouri Valley Conference because of the war, the athletes who play on the team will have to have the Jayhawk spirit and will likely make an admirable record.

Athletics To Go On In Valley in Spite Of War Conditions
President and Army Officers Urge Universities to Keep on With Sports
Kansas Has Full Schedule
Season's Prospects Uncertain But Coaches Want Material Out For Practice
"I would be sincerely sorry to see the men and boys in our colleges and schools give up their athletic sports and I hope most sincerely that the normal course of college sports will be continued as far as possible, not only to afford a diversion to the American people when we shall, no doubt, have our share of mental depression, but as a real contribution to the national defense, for our young must be made physically fit in order that it may take the place of those who are now of military age, and exhibit the vigor and alertness which we are proud to believe to be characteristic of our young men."—President Woodrow Wilson, May 22, 1917.
With President Woodrow Wilson as well as the army officials, and the coaches in the various educational institutions urging athletics in colleges and universities of the country, the continuance of athletics in the Missouri Valley conference seems assured.
W. O. Hamilton, manager, has conferred with the athletic authorities of all the schools with which Kansas has scheduled games and all the schools will fill their football dates—with Kansas at least. Athletic training

Leader of the Jayhawk football squad this year.
is said to be one of the best possible preparations for military training and every student in the University who has ever had any athletic experi- ence is expected to come out to help make a success of athletics here this year.
Coach "Beau" Olcott will call out the Jayhawker gridron forces tomorrow or Wednesday. At present he is not prepared to say just what kind of
a football team Kansas will have this year. Neither he nor manager Hamilton have written to the prospective candidates for this year's team during the summer, so do not know who will be back.
The war has played havoc with the lineup that K. U. was expected to have. Some of the most dependable players on last year's team have joined military organizations and now are scattered all over the United States. Even the coaching staff is depleted.
Kansas probably has had more athlete enlist for service than any other school in the Missouri Valley Conference.
MANY KANSANS ENLIST
The football players who are known to be in service are: Adrian Lindsey, captain of the team last season, the head coach of halfbacks in the valley; Harry Vernson and Wint Smith, two of the most dependable men in the line; Earl Shinn and Tad Reid, who played the end positions last year; Russell Cow-
The coaches who have enlisted are George Potsy Clark and Leon McCarty. Potsy Clark was assistant coach of football, basketball, and team volleyball. Leon McCarty was coach of Varsity baseball and freshman football.
Although a great many of the star players on the team last year are in military service, several dependable players are expected back. The first game of the season will be at Urbana, Illinois, October 6.
The complete schedule follows:
13- limbers & Portola.
Oct. 13 - Kansas Normal at Law
revue.
Oct. 20—Washburn at Lawrence.
Nov. 3—Kansas Aggies at Man-
hattan.
Nov. 10—Oklahoma at Norman.

SPORT BEAMS
Commissions in the United States Army have a great attraction for former K. U. basketball captains. Two captains of the last five years already have received commissions from the National Football League training camp at Ft. Sheridan, Ray J. Folks, captain 1916, was awarded a commission as second lieutenant at Ft. Riley, Ray Dummire, captain 1915, is at Ft. Sheridan, Lofty Schwartz, captain 1915, is at Ft. Sheridan, a commission as provisional second lieutenant at Ft. Leavenworth, George Stuckey, captain 1913, also is at Ft. Sheridan.
The first basketball practice will be held the first of next month according to Captain Rudolf Uhrlau. The team will have a good team this year.
Women's athletics bid fair to be popular this year because of the war. Last year the women took a more active part in athletics here than ever before and with the increased percentage of enrollment, the women are expected to develop some first class teams.
It is estimated by this sport dope slinger that there are enough Jayhawker football players in the milli-denier market. The center of Von Hindenburg's line.

I want him to mean what he says.
Believe me, I'm certainly glad to see you back at K.U.—glad that I am once more among the finest bunch of students in the world.
Twelve years of catering to student wants in the line of good things to eat enables me to know just what their wishes are and how to satisfy them.
Whenever you want a good meala good steak especiallydrop in and see me, but don't think it necessary to buy anything just because you come inI want to shake hands again with old students and get acquainted with the new ones.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture students at the University of Kansas; to go further than merely print the news on paper, it desires university varsity holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be courageous; to leave more serious heads; to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students the students of the University.
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1917
Wisdom is knowing what to do next. Skill is knowing how to do it, and Virtue is doing it—David Starr Jordan.
A WORD OF WELCOME
The Kansan is glad to welcome to the University the hundreds of students who are on Mount Oread today for the first time. On the strength of the freshman class depends the strength of the University—for whatever of goodness and ability there is among the entering class is sure to be expanded and enlarged upon as the students grow older. Freshmen today are seniors tomorrow; and needless to say, the better those freshmen are, the better the seniors will be.
This year, with every part of our educational system, from the high schools to the biggest universities, being subjected to such uncertainties as only war can bring about, the situation is indeed critical. Upon the quality of the freshman class—its ability to settle down at once and begin work without waste of time or effort—its ability to see clearly and think clearly—its spirit of optimism in taking up the cares of University life—and most, of all, its ability to become a part of the big K. U. family—on these things, we say, will depend in large measure the success of the year.
The Kansan, let us repeat, is glad to welcome all new students to the University. It wants them to become really and truly K. U. folks—and it wants to help them in every way it can by printing for them the news of the University and by telling them of the ideals the University holds.
And now they've gone and raised the price of "smoothes" to a dime. As if this war wasn't bringing us enough trouble!
"THERE'S A REASON"
Ask any twenty people why they're here and you'll get twenty different answers. Let any twenty people ask one person why he's here, and they'll get twenty different answers, depending upon which of the questioners is the person's chum, minister, Sunday School teacher, prof, or relative.
The following answers to the pesky "Why are you here?" have all done faithful service in the years gone by, and a student who uses them with caution and tact can convince anyone that he did the right thing in coming to the University. Look 'em over;
"My father wants to die poor
This is the easiest way."
"I think I have the possibilities of a great man."
"My draft number? Say! I won't be twenty-one till October. And I want to graduate this year if I can."
"Marie's going and I guess my father makes as much money as hers."
"I had to come back to see if those shrubs and trees really grew."
"I'm going to study law" (Emphasize the "study")
"It's too blamed lonesome home. Town's dead in winter."
"One meets so many fine fellows."
"If I didn't come I'd have to work for dad."
"I love to study." (Note: This answer must be used with great caution.)
BUT SERIOUSLY—
Just why do we come to college?
To most students a University course is expensive. It means sacrifice for the students in a great many cases, and always for the parents. Very few pay the price an education costs just for the fun of it.
What is it, then, that one gets out of his University career?
Perhaps it isn't any one definite thing. Each student is affected in many ways, and no two in just the same way. What a student gets from his four years work is a hazy, indefinite thing which we call culture. In addition, he doubtless gets a few specific rules for use in law, or medicine, or engineering, or teaching.
It is the acquiring of that culture—or rather, the failure to acquire it—that stimulates the critics of higher education. For it is a fact that the college man is not criticised because he fails to qualify for his profession.
It is for that lack of larger culture that college men are criticized by selfmade men who have acquired some of it.
Educators center their criticism on this point. They realize that the student doesn't get what he ought to from his school experience. Books and articles on the subject, enough to fill a dozen five-foot shelves, have been laboriously written and painfully read.
The trouble is this; We expect a "system," a mechanical contrivance, to do something which cannot be done without thought. We expect a machine to have a mind if we expect to force students to acquire culture.
Getting a college education is a human thing. Freshmen don't jump in at one end and roll out of the other—educated! You don't pour concrete, steel, blue prints, and fire escapes into a mixer and get a skyscraper. It requires the action of brains to arrange these materials.
Likewise, you can't bring a freshman in from high school, cram rhetoric, English Lit., hygiene, and French into him and have an educated man. It that were possible the world would be full of them. That is just the reason it isn't. Individual thinking is required to assimilate properly the huge chunks of wisdom dealt out in University courses.
The whole background of a student's life contributes to the instruction he receives in the University. The many things he learns reacts. Then the few things he remembers out of the jumbled mass constitute his cultural equipment. That seems to be the way the educators out it.
The sweet young thing who plans on taking domestic science this year says she never has learned the difference between calories and lentils.
The point is: Culture cannot possibly be gotten without hard mental work. So many things enter into it and it comes from so many sources that a man ought to be able to go to a nightshirt parade and a football rally, join a fraternity, get a warm letter from home, fall in love, join church, dabble in class politics, subscribe to the Daily Kansan, and—yes, even study once in a while, and still be adding constantly to his cultural equipment.
It has become so that about the only things that may be had at reasonable prices are the luxuries.
Personally, we don't have any difficulty in going to college. Our difficulty is in paying our bills.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Senior Law Explains How State Auditor Mussed Up Faculty
Teachers' Salaries For Two Months Held Up Because of Discovered Technicality
New Ruling Causes Trouble
Board of Administration Uses Counter-Technicality That Gives Temporary Relief
Students of psychology returning to the University today declared that already they had detected a new influence, a subtle, sinister stimulus from which the members of the faculties were reacting vaguely in strange and disturbing ways that are not readily detected by crass observers. The faculty members so reacting the psychology students said, apparently are entirely unconscious of an abnormal attitude on their part and are unwaware than an unusual setting element has penetrated their mind and caused a psychotic condition.
The foregoing opinion was submitted to a well known senior law who arrived on the noon train today and he replied that the psychology students were, as usual, shooting bunc.
"There's nothing the matter with the faculty," said the senior law, "except that they're all missed up financially. The state auditor has been monkeyin' with their salaries all summer and you can't blame a lot of them." "Well," she drew a teacher's salary and a state auditor stopped it or held it up, through no fault of yours, I guess your aura would have the pip, too.
"Don't these psychology students ever read the papers?" the senior law added. "There's been a lot about that salary injustice printed this summer and they ought to have seen some of it. However, for their benefit and for the engineers, who also seem to have trouble pickin' out small print, I'll recite the whole book." She then goes on to feare, de minimis est no cura lex, in loco parentis and all that. Here goes:
"Along last summer after all of us had gone to Fort Riley, the farm and other places a bunch of profs were laboring here to inject a medium of erudition into six or some students' student journals that's some job, "she" I hate to work on a summer student. Me for the undertaking business first.
"Well those profs were plugging away hoping to make enough to square themselves with the grocer and meet the last delinquent payment on the encyclopaedia when this auditor person, name's Knapp, discovers an amusing check in his library checks sent to each of the summer profs. Yes, sir, 'double-o-of'em, two count, om. You know he rather got off on the wrong foot when he accused a lot of poor devils of fee grabbin' last winter, but here now was a real chance. He had 'eam at last. Sure, n't the whole faculty of the jiggers, the aggregator and mollbuzzers, n't the engineering and medic profs all second storymen and con workers and the only reason the law profs haven't been pinched for liftn' leathers was because they never'd had a chance.
"Say, I been practicin' in justice of the court this summer and I learned
"Well the auditor asks the chancellor in all very sweet and polite, 'How are you, Mr. Auditor; you're lookin' fine, Mr. Chancellor.' Just as sweet and dainty and the chancellor sits through the little expose of his life, he smiles with a smiled patiently, I am advised in the premises, and he wilted nary a wilt.
"You see it's this way," the chancellor explains to the auditor. "The state employs its regular faculty for nine months teaching, just as other universities do, instead of paying the salaries in nine installments, the state splits the total salary for the nine months work into twelve installments and pays one of those twelfths each month. The state ought to pay for the work the work is doing, but instead the work is finished, but the salaries for three months—- a thing that is absolutely unfair and untenable in equity, I'll say that.
EVERYTHING ALMOST ALL RIGHT
"Well the chancery tells him how these fellows won't get their pay for all last winter's work until this September and that the other checks they were getting were for the sum of material teaching work in summer school.
“Well, of course, the auditor saw that everything was square and that everybody had a right to those checks and that nobody was being paid down to 'em. Down to 'em. Seemed like everything was going to be all right then.
“An everything might of been all right, too, if the end of the state fiscal year had’t come along about that time an ascombody had didn’t want to pay taxes. And I found it out some way. Yes, sir, right there was where trouble began and if I was a faculty member and I ever saw that guy that went and the auditor when the state fiscal was sure would take him to a trimmin!”
"After he lays the facts before the
narrary general the corpus delectus
deliciates."
BRINGS IN CORPUS DELECTI "You see the fiscal year ends June 30. They ain't no New Year's in January, so far as money is concerned. New Year's' begins July 1 New Year's' begins July 1 that all that out, too--some folks just can't keep their mouths shut, and he has the attorney general in.
"Old teachers who worked last winter were hired with money available in the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1915, and ending June 30, 1917, see. Old teachers who worked last winter had their salaries date from September 1, under the state's unanticipated end of the mentis, system of paying teachers at the University and the agricultural college. The old teachers, naturally, couldn't draw their full salaries until a full year had rolled round. While that full year was rollin' 'round the fiscal year comes to an end, so the student has caveat emptor. What does that do? Why that leaves the old teachers with two months old salary comin' to 'em for last fiscal year's work and here's a new fiscal year buttin' in and the auditor dament touch a penny of new fiscal year money to pay for old work done in an old fiscal year. That's the law and the status and any other kind of penalty would issue immediately ad ventus est and where'd the state auditor be? Where'd he be? I ask you.
"You fellows who know law, can not get hep to the gravity of this situation," he said.
ence that the boards of administration and the two big state institutions, the other auditors and the governors had been paying money this way the last fourteen years the auditor had found now it wasn't legal and he wasn't going to do it a-tall. He didn't either.
HOLD ANOTHER CONFERENCE
"So they has in the chancey, the head of the aggies, the board of administration, the attorney general and all the other necessary factotums this time. The auditor explains. He's sorry. The law there's. Everybody agree that the law does look right for the authorities on board and the aggie guy asks to know how about the injustice-that'll do a lot of women, as well as men who are supportin' families on small salaries. All of 'em are innocent victims of the state's system of paying teachers, and now they are to be made to suffer further hardship because of a technicality. But auditor, he stands firm, standerence profusus." Blackstone might get how it goes, it might be considered incompetent, irrelevant and immaterial here, so we can leave it out.
A COUNTER-TECHNICALITY
"Well, that's a pretty warm meeting, I understand. Seems the auditor wasn't tickled some time ago at something some agricultural college fellow did when he was helpin' run a fair out somewhere, an' he brought that up 'an' the top side man of that stand for any monkey business and isn't afraid to 'nounce his convictions right out.
HOLD ANOTHER CONFERENCE
"But they didn't budge the auditor. So they say we'll just dig up a little technicality of our own and they date says we'll make the school year date from July 1, instead of from September 1, and you'll begin paying teachers two months before they do work instead of two months after they quit work. And they did and he did. But they did to the teachers who did and quit school and for any other reason. They haven't any next year's salary coming to 'em.
"What'll they do?" Why they'll just have to wait until the legislature convenes in 1919. Sure, it's tough, res rotten in Denmark non quam supra - I forget how that goes, too, but it fits in very fine here. Get a freshman law to look it up for you. Everybody ought to know that.
"How're these guys that didn't get pay goin't to live?"
"You can search me. Tain't their

Graduate From K.U. First U.S.Man to Die for Democracy
Lieut. Fitzsimons, '12, Killed During German Air Raid on Hospitals in France
Licut, W. T. Fitzsimmons, the first member of American forces to be killed on European battlefields, was a native of Kansas and a graduate of the University of Kansas. He was killed September 7 while on duty with British forces in France, during a German bomb raid on Allied hospitals back of the battle line. He was killed in Burlington after graduating from St. Mary's College at St. Mary's, and took his degree here in 1912.
When the war broke out in Europe, he went to Belgium with the first Red Cross ship sent from this country. He was commissioned lieutenant in the Officers' Medical Reserve Corps of the United States Army soon after the entry of this country into the war. He had seen eighteen months of service in France with the Red Cross before enlisting.
He returned to Kansas City, Mo., the spring of this year and secured his commission. He started his return voyage June 15, arriving in England on August 12. After arriving at the hospitals in France he took up his cheerful and busy work of caring for the wounded until killed in the German air raid which cost several other American lives.
Soon after graduating from the University he studied surgery at the Roosevelt Hospital in New York City. In Kansas City, which has been his home for the last few years, while he practiced medicine, he became well liked in medical circles. He was appointed a member of the staff of St. Mary's hospital before his first service abroad.
There is a movement on foot in Kansas City among his friends to erect a monument to commemorate the Battle of Kansas. His magnums made for world democracy.
Naismith Goes to France For Work In War Camps
Dr. James Naisimith of Lawrence left recently for the east where he expects to sail soon for France. He will continue his work in Y. M. Carrie, Jr. of France in France.
Since the University term ended last spring, Doctor Naismith has been working in the interests of the Y. M. C. A. in the various army camps of the country. He visited camps in all sections of the United States and addressed thousands of Hispanics. In that phase of Y. M. C. A. work which has to do with improving the moral surroundings of the camp.
After organizing forces in the camps and cities adjoining the camps in this country in the effort to clean up the camps, Doctor Naismith was asked by Y. M. C. A., directors to continue his work in France. He has a leave of absence from the University of Kansas, where he is head of the department. The next time he has been appointed to fill his vacancy in the department.
Prior to the time Doctor Naismith took up Y. M. C. A. camp work he was chaplain of the First Kansas Regiment of Infantry. He resigned from that position early last summer. Doctor Naismith was on the Mexican border summer before last with the Kansas regiment.

New Business Office Of Governing Board Will Be In Fraser
K. U. Dealings Will Be Handled By Representative of Board of Administration
The business office of the University has been returned to its place if Fraser Hall, where it was located four years ago. It had been there three years when the last state aid program honored him under the supervision of the registrar, George O. Foster. Under the present plan all University business will be handled through the business office, and any department that may have a complete statement of its account whatever it wants one.
In the new office are Karl Klooz,
Ethyl G. Noyes, from the Topeka
office of the board or administration
and Charlotte Darrow. Karl Klooz
is chief clerk and Miss Noyes is
purchasing agent. Under the new plan
Registrar Foster will not have any
thing to do with the student but will have entire charge of registering students, as well as running the University post office.
In place of the two doorways through which the students walked into the office and did their work in a hapazard manner, two windows have been built, and all the business done there will be done through these windows.
James A. Kimball, business manager of all state educational institutions will do all general purchasing for the institutions from Topeka, while Klooz will be in charge of the administration of the division of Chancellor Frank Strong, who is the actual head of the University in all of its business transactions under the new system introduced by the last state legislature.
Annual Editors Will Start Work Early On Book For This Year
Military Features To Be Dominant Scheme of '18 Annual —Snapshots Wanted
The beginning of school work also marks the beginning of work on the University yearbook, the 1918 Jayhawk. Don Davis and Harry Morgan, business manager and editor, arrived in Lawrence a week ago in order to work over details of the book, to get pictures for the campus section and to take snap shots of the students engaged in military work.

Company M, the University's one distinctive military organization, will be treated in a loyal manner and as many other military features as possible will be added. Harry Morgan, editor, says he has seen snapshots of students on courses who are in military service. Some good views of the local company have been taken but last year's seniors and other students now are scattered through all possible branches of military service, some even being in France. Snapshots of women will be at a premium in the book.
It is not yet, known whether the effect of the war on the University will be such as to cause any decrease in the size of the book. This will depend largely on the enrollment of seniors. But the editor and manager of the Jaya Hawker will not be impaired even though it may become necessary to cut down on some of the more extensive features.
"Due to the active part the University and University students are taking in the war," said Davis, "a patriotic number of the annual is the university, but only does it afford us an excellent opportunity to publish something unique in the way of a Jayhawker but it seems the logical thing to devote the annual to the University students who are making the big sacre. Then such a policy is more in keeping with the national trend of affairs."
This year's Jayhawkers is to pattern along the lines of a Fourth of July celebration, according to the editor. Red, white and blue is to be the dominant color scheme. They will give the girls leading position in a patriotic manner and the American eagle will greet the reader from page one.

Students May Study Principles of Flying At K. U. This Year
A 5-Hour Course In Aviation Is Offered—Anyone May Enroll
Offer Campus For Flying
Government Has Taken Offer to Establish School Here Under Advisement
One form of the University's cooperation with the government in the present war crisis has taken the form of a 5-hour course in aviation to be offered at the University this year. The course will include the dynamics of flight, the construction and operation of aircraft motors, airplane construction and special work in mechanics in the physics department.
The course will be open to all students of the University, men and women. Credit toward a degree, however, will be given only to students in its program. The College of Liberty Arts and Sciences. It is planned that this elementary course be a forerunner of a complete course in airplane engineering.
MAY HAVE AVIATION SCHOOL
The University recently offered to co-operate with the government in establishing an army aviation school in the University. The government took the proposal unanimously. Meanwhile the University is going ahead first course with two objectives in view. One purpose is to aid in training aviators the army might need. The other is to look beyond the war and toward the possibility of general air transportation when the country will need trained men in this new field.
The five-hour course in aviation, to those unfamiliar with University hours, means that students in the course will have to give at least fifteen hours a week studying the subject. Students must work part time class work each week and for each hour of class work the student must put in two hours in preparation.
THREE PROFESSORS GIVE COURSE
The elements of aviation course
will be taught by three professors in
their own fields. These are:
Slus, Solomon Lefschetz and T. T.
Smith. They will have charge of
the different phases of the course.
The government has under consideration the offer of the University for an aviation school here. Similar offers have been given to students from other schools, but so far only eight schools of this kind have been established. If a school is established at the University it is estimated that two hundred students would enroll. The training would be given directly to those students being taken into the course in such order that twenty-five would finish the course each week.

Soldiers in France To See Action Soon Says D.L.Patterson
Americans Have Moved Up To Front Lines—Will Clash Soon With Germans
Trip Was Without Mishap
Assistant Dean's Party Was Shelled While Inspecting Trench Near Enemy
American troops in France will see service soon at the front in the opinion of Prof. D. L. Patterson, assistant dean of the College, University of Kansas, who arrived in Lawrence Friday. The day he left Paris, General Pershing moved his headquarters from there to the front line camp, where the men are stationed, considered a certain indication that the United States forces soon would be in the fight.
Professor Patterson arrived at N. Y. Tuesday on the French linen, "Espange." He had an unaventiful voyage both ways. No submarines were sighted either coming or going, but every precaution was made to guard against the menace. He left for the morning and spent most of his time in the trenches on the western front in France and Belgium.
TROOPS WELL SITUATED
The American forces are situated "south of the lake, a long, narrow valley, the men being stationed in small towns only a short distance apart. They are a happy bunch and enjoy their life in the small stone houses in which they live alone, wired with nicked contingent of men, soldiers.
Professor Patterson ate with the men while he was in camp and he agrees with the men in their belief that they are being fed in excellent style. The climate in this valley is much cooler than in this country. The men are in one of the most beautiful spots in France.
Health conditions in this and other camps are ideal. In every village in which troops are quartered is a Y. M. C. a tent or building where the "Sammies" can get some of the extra luxuries the quartermaster does not supply for the men. There also are billiard tables, writing tables, a library and other things to keep the soldiers amused.
REGRETTTED LOSS OF TOBACCO Professor Patterson told how badly the sinking of the ship "Kanan," by the Germans had affected the Americans. A huge consignment of tobacco was being sold and several weeks the Yankees had nothing but the French and English grades of tobacco.
While he was still near the first United States camp in France, a man representing an eastern publication arrived with the first big ship bound for California. The sizes of tobacco were distributed from a big truck at this camp alone.
Men are billeted in groups ranging as high as 42 to a hut or building. Most of these are in grey huts, with red tiled French roofs. In some instances long narrow frame cantonment buildings are used but seldom is a tent seen except in case of a cook tent. The camp Professor Patterson visited is the first American camp and still is the largest.
Troops are arriving nearly every day and on account of the length of the valley in which they are encamped, the long line of villages simply is extended further for use in housing new troops. The famous French Chasseurs, the fighters who do the work in the mountain country for France will train American troops.
The Germans call them "Blue Devils," because they fight so hard. They are readily distinguished by their timo-shanters. These picked German infantry and are teaching them all of the trench warfare and improved methods of fighting which they have obtained through years of fighting.
AMERICANS GET WHITE BREAD
Prices in France are moderate al-
though the French citizen has two
meatless days can be eaten.
France has black war bread.
It is made of potatoes and
whole wheat grain but it is quite
satisfying and really good eating, according to Professor Patterson. American forces in Europe get white bread and they have no meatless days.
The general outlook of the war is bright, Professor Patterson believes. The entrance of this country into it has put all of the people of France in fine spirits. In the spring of 1939 the Germans entered the in end but they were feeling pessimistic and beginning to tire of the drawn out struggle.
On the battle fields which, Professor Patterson visited from the Belgian front to Switzerland, the soldiers of France held the principal positions. In Alsace, the French look down on the German lines and out over their positions for twenty miles. The same is true in Alsine, where
they also hold the high ground. In the English sector the assistant dean went over the battlefield of Flanders where Messines Ridge and the land near Ypres is occupied by the British.
PARTY WAS SHELLED
While going through a part of the famous Hindenburg line east of Aras, the party was discovered while approaching the building that was killed or struck by the shells.
Along this line, the British have captured sixteen miles of the famous Hindenburg line which extends about seventen miles. In preparation for the opening ceremony, the net extending the length of the line, forty feet below the surface. Professor Patterson was a week on the Alsace-Lorraine front and the same length of time on the English front. During the French line two different times.
SHELLS BURST NEAR
SHELLS BURST NEAR
It was while they were barely twenty yards away, the German front line near Arras, the HHarm heard them talking and started to shell the main trench 100 yards to the rear of the party. About eightteen shells were fired, some bursting less than twenty yards away.
Many gas bombs were being used when Patterson was at the front and all were required to wear gas masks and steel helmets.

The Y. M. C. A. Employment Bureau is the only one in Lawrence for the purpose of connecting the man who wants work and the employer who wants the man. The Y. M. C. A. donates its services free.
Go to the Y. M. C. A. Employment Bureau in Myers Hall. Lloyd A. McHenry, a graduate student who is employment secretary of the Y. M. C. A. this year will fix you up. He is on the job listing calls for men and pleas for work. He is there from 8 o'clock to 10:30 o'clock every morning and from 12 till 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
Six hundred men were handled last year through the bureau and up until Saturday night more than one hundred people have been given jobs through this agency.
One class of jobs is open and no one seems to care for it. This is the stewardship of clubs. More than fifteen stewardship jobs in mixed clubs and co-op clubs are open and waiting for men to take them.
"I don't understand why men don't want these steward jobs," said McHenry. "With the higher prized clubs充电 clubs $5 these co-op clubs at $4 and $4.50 ought to look mighty good to the student who is practising economy. If any man wants a stewarding job we have it."

So far there are thirty women who want jobs with only four positions open.

University Graduate Buys
Big Eastern Publication
Graduates of the University of Kansas make good in a big way. The latest example of this statement is R. R. Whitman, a graduate of the University in 1893 who has just purchased the New York Commercial, the oldest business and financial pachadian firm. He resigned his position as managing director of the Audit Bureau of Circulations.
Mr. Whitman has worked on the Kansas City Journal and on the old Kansas City Times. While in the city he edited the University Review.
Football Game Scheduled Between Two Local Units
A football game for the incoming students Wednesday or Thursday of this week will be put on by Company M and Company H, of the First Kansas Infantry regiment, on McCook Field. The game will tend to do away with the old rules; sometimes sad first week which is so often experienced by the new students as well as those who are returning to school work. The money from the game will go to increase the company fund of each military unit. There will be a large number consented to the use of the field for he realizes that a reasonably large
company fund is a necessary thing for a military organization in the service. By means of this fund the two companies, which are composed of three militia units, are vided with the few extras or the so-called luxuries while in the field.
Charles F. Scott, graduate of the University of Kansas, was the speaker at the meeting on Old Settler's day last Friday in G. A. R. hall.

Members of Co.M Are Getting Taste OfArmy Conditions
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS TUESDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 18, 1917.
Soldiers Had to Give Up Quarters in Gymnasium for Registration Work
Time of Leaving Not Set
Lack of Train Facilities Ham per Transfer of Guard Troops to Ft. Sill
Company M is getting its first taste of a real camp life this week. The company has been in Robinson Gymnastium from the time of its mobilization. August 5, until the latter week when the men pitched their tents on the vacant space across the road northwest of the gym.
It is likely the company will be m Lawrence until October first or later. The Ft. Sill camp is ready according to First Lieut. Merrill F. Daum, who is there taking a course in muskets, but transfer of the troops will be impossible because of lack of train facilities.
The company at present is drilling from six and a half to eight hours a day. The regular drill periods are are from 11:30 in the morning and from 1:30 in the afternoon. Retreat is at 8:45 and guard mount at 6 o'clock.
The field range also has been set up just west of the gym and mess will be prepared by the company cooks just as it is when the company is encamped in the field. The boys are cooking at the Orcad Cafe until Saturday morning when that place was forced to open up for student tradts.
The program for the week is not definitely made up yet, but it will include grenade throwing and trench digging. False grenades were cast by a detail from the company at Shops Friday afternoon while other details did such work as cleaning of the company street, starting the trench digging, setting up the field range and building an incinerator.
A number of the men spent Saturday and Sunday out of town. A large number of passes have been given since the company mobilized, and they will be given now that the friends of many of the men are back in Lawrence.
Most of the men are University men, but some have been recruited from other towns and some have been transferred from other organizations. Following is the company roll:
First Lieutenant: Merrill F. Daum
Second Lieutenant: Frank B. Elm
Captain: Frank E. Jones.

Journalism Studies Try Hand at the Real Game
If you are wondering what the members of the department of journalism did this summer or are doing now it is pretty safe to say three guesses would be sufficient. They either have worked on a newspaper, or they have gone to war, or they are returning to the University. Most of the exceptions are either married or are teaching school.
Gail Hall worked on the Summer Session Kansan and now is with the advertising department of the Emery Dry Goods Company in Kansas City.
Some of those who have been doing newspaper work this summer and are returning to the University—in most cases, they receive degrees—the following;
Helen Patterson worked this summer on the Parsons Sun, and will teach journalism this winter in the Pratt high school.
Blanche Simons is society editor of the Lawrence Journal-World.
Vernon Moore, Darald Hartley,
Glendon Allyne, Clifford Butcher,
and Dean Reitzel are with the Kansas City Star.
Cargill Sproull is city editor of the Lawrence Journal-World.
William S. Cady is now owner of the Fredonia Herald.
Repp is working on the Register's Champion at Hebron, Neb. Several newspapers work during the summer this fall returning to the University this call.
Mary Smith worked on the Abilen Reflector the latter part of the summer.
Dorothy Cole and Mary Robert worked on the Summer Session Kansan
James Hardackre reported on the Burlington Republican.
Alice Bowley worked on the Daily Dispatch-Republican at Clay Center. Don Davis was advertising manager on the Hiawatha World.
Harry Morgan was a reporter on the Kansas City Star.
NUMBER 2
John Montgomery worked on the Lawrence Gazette.
E. Lawson May was circulation manager on the Hutchinson Gazette. Millard Wear was on the staff of the Topeka Daily Capital.
Eugene Dyer was a reporter on the Kansas City Post.
The journalism office reports that there have been at least three jobs offered for every available student prepared to take a job.
Student Council Book Exchange Opens Today
The Student Council Book Exchange opens at Fraser check stand this morning. Walter Raymond, who is in charge of the exchange, is asking students who have books to sell to bring them to the check stand at the very earliest possible time. In former years the exchange has been handicapped because students turn in their books too late. Raymond hopes that this will not be the case this year.
Last year the exchange sold over a thousand dollars worth of books. The managers expect to do a much larger volume of business this year. The price of paper has almost doubled within a year and many students must save money by buying second hand books.
Women's Association Holds Annual Reception
A charge of ten per cent is made for all books sold. The commission goes to the student Council, and is used to pay the expenses of operating the exchange.
The University Women's Association will give its annual opening reception to the entire University from 8 to 10 o'clock Saturday night in Robinson Gymnasium. Chancellor and Mrs. Frank Strong and Doctor and Mrs. W. L. Burdick will be in the receiving line.
The association is composed of all women members of the faculty and all women members of the team. The invitation will be an informal, affair open to students and faculty members alike.

Not everyone who was on the Hill yesterday registering was able to get a Sour Owl from the Owls who were selling the magazine. For the benefit of those who desire more copies or for those students who failed to get a Sour Owl yesterday the Board of Managers announces that they will be on sale all day Tuesday in the Gymnasium and in the business office in Fraser and at one or two of the downtown bookstores.
"Many Students Must Work to Pay Expenses This Year"—Wedell
Y. M. Secretary Has Applications for More Jobs Than Ever Before
More Owls For Sale
War or something just as disastrous has caused more applications for odd jobs and regular jobs this year than ever before, according to Hugo Wedell, general secretary of the University Y. M. C. A.
"Judging the applications so far this week," said Mr. Wedell last night, "I look for at least one thousand and men working their way through the University this year. Six hundred men worked last year."
Many jobs still remain uncalled for at the employment bureau. Streetographers, cooks, tailors, chauffeurs, clerks, plumbers and piano and banjo. Six stewardships are open got. Mention give a steward his board for his work.
The association is equipped this year to give more assistance to the students who want work. Lloyd McHenry, is Employment Secretary, relieving Mr. Wedell, who has other connections in connection with the Y. M. C. A. Mr. Murray's phone number is 209 and by calling that number instead of the phone that is listed in the directory much better service can be given.
"All applications for work during the year should be made this week whether the men want work immediately, they will be served in order of application. Most of the regular jobs are filled but there are many odd jobs still open."
.
"Each man must report his work to McHenry for permanent data. If this request is not complied with these men who do not report will go on the "Black List" which means that those on this list will not be served by the bureau any more this year. This is necessary because so many men are needing and wanting jobs."
Lawrence was completely canvassed by members of the University Y. M. C. A. in an effort to locate all jobs open to University men this year. More than one hundred fifty men have been placed so far this week.
Mr. Wedell, the man every freshman should know wants this information given to every man hunting work:
Kansas Cities' Troubles Are Straightened Out By Reference Bureau
Report of Secretary for Fiscal Year Shows Wide Range of State Service
Just how successful the Municipal Reference Bureau conducted by the University Extension Division is becoming as a clearing house for municipal troubles and advice is revealed in the report for the past fiscal year just issued by Homer Talbot, secretary of the Bureau.
The report shows a total of 548 inquiries or requests for information or material, from 131 Kansas cities and towns, answered during the year, while out-of-state inquiries reached an annual total of 161. One city made 58 of these careful compilation of the number of requests also revealed that the bureau is devoting the greater part of its time to those towns and cities which most need its assistance. For instance, only 57 requests came in from the first class; 191 from cities of the second class; 206 from the third class and unincorporated towns required information 299 times.
Requests came to Mr. Talbot from many sources, state officials, faculty members, newspaper men, librarians, school authorities and private citizens. In response information was given on every conceivable subject of municipal importance. Legal information, ordinances, resolutions, awaiting contracts, water rates and a thousand other matters tooickish for the city fathers were given consideration and advice granted.
The bureau also was interested largely in helping small cities and towns with plans for cleaner and more beautiful streets and parks. It worked hand in hand with the League of Kansas Municipalities to its membership grow from 137 to 153. The lawless cooperated with the memberages in an endeavor to aid the government in lining up civic interests in the work of food conservation and other war-time activities.
All Must File Addresses
The report also carried recommendations for a higher and better office location in order that its work may not be hambled by lack of proper working facilities.
Postmaster Chas. C. Seewir wishes to remind students to fill out cards to their addresses at the post office at once to avoid delay in delivery mail.
Dances were given last night by the Sigma Chis, the Phi Gamma Deltas and the Phi Delta Thetas.
Mail coming to Lawrence must have the street and number in the address. Any change of address since last year must be filed at the post office.
Tryouts for the University band were announced yesterday by J. C. McCans, director of the organiza-
tion. The tryouts are open to everyone who abides by the instrument and all who have any ability to play players are urged to come out.
First Band Tryouts Start
At 1:30 Today In Fraser
"Our prospects this year are uncertain," said Mr. McCanes yesterday, "and no one knows yet how many men will be available for band work. But we can count on having a good band anyway."
The University furnishes uniforms and the following instruments: three basses, one baritone, two horns, one saxophone, snare and bass drum. Students in the best class of music and affords splendid training for band men.
The schedule of tryouts for all instruments: Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 1:30 to 5:30 o'clock in the afternoon; Saturday from 8:30 to 11:30 o'clock and from ¥30 to 5:30 o'clock.
All tryouts will be in Fraser Hall, Room 502.
Plain Tales
When you come on the Hill in the morning and the whistle will blow and you left your wrist watch at home and you want to know the time look at the Physics Clock to your immediate lie as you pass the library.
Then return to the Library and note the time that each clock in that building shows.
Then enter Fraser Hall at the east door and note the time shown by that clock.
Jot these down, go to one of the math profs in Administration building and have him add and divide by five.
Then go again into Fraser. Enter a phone booth. Call Western Union and ask for the time. They'll know there.
Question: Is Harold Hoover steward of a certain club in the student district any relation whatsoever to our own Mr. Herbert Hoover who is saving this country from ruin and starvation?
Ours is going to be an ideal existence this winter. We expect to get lots of studying done. Our room has a snare drum and its accompanying jazz things. Two boys across the hall each play bass horns. The lad down the hall ten steps is an expert trombone artist. The lady downstairs plays the piano and sings. She also gives music lessons. And we heard the charming music of a ukelele across the street at night.
Ah, 'tis true Bohemia.
Tonight's the night. Tonight the frost—the ones with plenty of jack good "conversators," and owners of big cars in their home towns are pledged to their favorite fraternity. Tonight, *sometimes between eight o'clock and one o'clock in the morning they will be taken into a little room way upstairs past spooky lookings and talked into something they have heard of but have never experienced. They tomorrow you'll be all chesty with the little pin on their coat lapel and then the next day may they'll remain chesty and then all at once something will break. A broom will be handed to them and the front sidewall will be pointed out. All of which means they are pledges to the best little Greek brotherhood in the world.
"My name's **")(?:!(.)(.)((?* Seems to me like I remember you face but I can't recall your name Oh, yes, that's it—caetain. Glad to know you. Where you eating this winter? Good. Not signed up yet? Well, my boy, we have absolutely the best little boarding house in this whole town where you can eat it or mighty small little sum of $5 a week. Give you two meals a day for $2.55. You're you're thinking of the Soup and Pumpkin. Now, listen, they're mighty nice people and all that but my club puts it on them so much I hate even to mention it. Come on and try our club one week. If you don't like it, move Much 'bliged. See you tonight."
And another freshman has another card in his hand and another steward is one more meal closer to the end of school.

Women Outnumber Men Three to One; Enrollment Off 400
Registration Day Totals About 1,500 Students—1,962 Same Time Last Year
New Method of Enrolling
Freshmen Will Go In West Front Entrance to Get Enrollment Cards
Engineers and law students enroll at their respective buildings.
Enrollment Tuesday and Wednesday from 8 to 12 a.m. and 1 to 5 p.m.
All freshmen in College and School of Fine Arts will enter the same building by the west front entrance.
All Fine Arts, Medic, and College students enter Robinson Gymnasium to enroll by front center doorway.
Starting at eight o'clock yesterday morning a steady stream of students poured into the Robinson gymnasium to register on the first official registration day at the University of Kansas.
Registrar George O. Foster estimated last night that about 1,500 had listed for work when the day ended. The total registration at the close of Monday last fall was 1,962, making a shortage this year of 462 students. However two more days are left in which to register.
WOME OUTNUMBER MEN
The ratio of women to men students this fall is about three to one, while last year there were twice as many men as women. In the lineup yesterday morning there were many old Jahayawk athletes and force instructors. Agents for the two University publications the Daily Kansas and the State Journal of the laundry and boarding club staffers. Here and there was an occasional man selling press tickets. No chapel tickets have been sold.
Students were lined up on the main sidewalk before eight o'clock yesterday morning. If the enrollment plans work today out as well as registration did yesterday, the work should go through smoothly. Today and Wednesday enrollment will be in full swing.
Freshmen will go to the west front entrance to enroll. They will be given numbered cards which will indicate their place in line to enroll on the upper gymnasium floor. All other students will go in at the middle front entrance. They will be seated as they come in on seats on the balcony around the upper gym floor. Better ventilation and swiffer and simpler methods of calling the students down to enroll were the main things considered when the enrollment plans were made. A larger floor space also was obtained by the new plan.
GIVE TOO LATE REGISTRATION
Registration will continue the same as Monday, students entering by the east front entrance. None will be permitted to enroll until they have registered. A fee of $1 is assured for registration or enrollment after Wednesday.
While throngs went into the gymnasium yesterday, members of Company M, encamped across the street from the gymnasium were busy drilling and wig-wagging signals across the campus. The men moved out of the building Friday and Saturday.
Chancellor Will Welcome Students Friday Morning
Chancellor Frank Strong will give the address of welcome to the first students Friday morning at the first all-University convocation in Robinson Gymnasium at 10 o'clock. The usual program of music, prayer, and speeches will be carried out. The plan followed last year of cutting all periods ten minutes short will be used.
The first period class will meet at 8:30 o'clock as usual and the 9:30 class at 9:20, so that all classes will be at ten o'clock. The fourth hour class was dismissed at 12:30 o'clock. The usual program of periods will be followed. The chancellor has not announced his subject.
John Dyer, c'18, was one of the drafted men at Camp Funston for two weeks when he found out that it was zil a mistake and he can come back to school. He's tickled.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1917
It is the business of every live newspaper to raise the devil in some way every day.-Ed. Howe.
THEY'RE ALL HERE
Yes, they're all here and they're all glad to be back.
The laundry agent hit you before you were hardly off the train; the boarding club steward camped on your trail as you climbed the Hill; and 'steen other varieties of agents, grafters, and solicitors scraped up an acquaintance with you in any possible way.
But say—it's great to have 'em doin' it, isn't it? You like the atmosphere up here—you can' help it. Same busy place as in former years, in spite of the old faces that are missing since the war took so many of the men away. Nevertheless, the crop of freshmen is just as big as in former years—the excitement is just as intense—and it takes just as long as usual to get down the line to the big desk where the little girl takes your money away from you and you learn that the two dollar hospital fee is still very, very much popular.
Yes, it's a great old feeling—just to be back in Lawrence in the fall when things begin to hum.
And the nicest part of it all is that we have "business as usual."
Trying will do anything in the world.—Theocritus.
THOSE REGISTRATION FIGURES
Registrar Foster's prediction that the K. U. enrollment will reach 3,000 this year is being watched with interest not only in Lawrence but all over the state. Mr. Foster based his statement on the large number of high school graduations last spring, believing that 1,200 freshmen would be here this fall. If that number enrollee, there can be but little doubt that the 3,000 mark will be reached, and that the University will be just as big and just as busy a place as last year. The annual increase in enrolment will be cut off, of course.
The enrollment at Manhattan this year fell off 700. This is no doubt due to the fact that so many of the K. S. A. C. students are farmers and that they feel their services are required at home. K. U. draws a somewhat different class of students—though she is proud that many of her best men are from the farm—and due to the fact that many men from the cities are here it is highly probable that Registrar Foster's total will be reached.
Here's hoping!
God does not give us results, but only opportunities.—Black.
HIS EYES ARE OPEN
The Sour Owl ain't sleepy. He's not sitting on a limb, blinking in the sunlight, these fine days. He's up and comin' and his eyes are open in the daytime.
In fact, he's flying around quite promiscuously on Mount Oread this week. The Kansan is glad to see him here. He's a bird with a big future (futsels with pasts always have futures) and the new board which has taken hold of the publication this year bids fair to help the bird along on his path to reform and rejuvenation.
Resplendent in crimson and blue, with lots of snappy jokes and a great deal of art matter, the first Owl of the 1917-18 school year is with us. We welcome him—and give those in charge of his career our best wishes.
The men who are lifting the word upward and onward are those who encourage more than criticize.—Elizabeth Harrison.
THE WAR HITS HOME
A K. U. man was the first American soldier to be killed on European battlefields. Thus does the war hit home.
But K. U. folks, even in their sorrow, can not but feel a tinge of pride as they tell of his death. That many more K. U. men will bravely meet their death in the great conflict there can be no doubt; that they meet death fearlessly, while in the performance of their duty, is to their credit. That such men are graduates of the University is our pride, and whatever they do in the cause of democracy will be lauded back here at home.
The thing in this world I am most afraid of in fear. "Montaigne."
Successful men take one hundred times the trouble that men usually do.—Parton.
OTHER OPINIONS
THE LITTLE OPPORTUNITIES
The business of life in college and after is no small or trivial matter, especially in so far as success and willingness to do the things nearest at hand are concerned. Some people take such things seriously all the time. Yet others seem to think that they should be concerned only with the pleasure of the moment and grasp the big opportunity when it comes. Others see that are rather to be done but they would rather be let the other fellow do that, and wait for the big chance to distinguish themselves.
Fate rules that not every person may have a "big opportunity," but he who is willing to do what is nearest at hand and what needs doing stands more chance of getting the "big opportunity." To be able to throw one's personal things in the air, with the thing that is nearest and needs to be done is one of the most commendable things in a person.
To say that "the cat danced" or "the show went off well" means more than to say "I did that" or "the success of the venture was due to my vigilance and willingness to do the hardest part."
What railway catastrophe could have happened to the Girard "Appeal to Reason," to bring down on it such a blow as the following editorial says: "If we say much and the Union Pacific is never more than nine hours late:
The person who does the little tasks which seem so trivial but which lead to bigger things will be admired more than the one who sits down on the job and says he is above doing just anything. The best policy is always to do what is nearest and to fill one's place as the best of one's children and bigger things will find that person more efficient in their handling and better prepared to take a position.-Indiana Daily Student.
We would like to remind the "Appeal to Reason" of Rirad, Kann., and a motely host of others who still rake in the muck of twenty years ago, that the railways of this country are a fact, and not an inflamed state of mind. There are some officers active in the railway business just as there are some liars and traitors active in the newspaper business, but the vast majority of both trades are honest workers. If railway managers were such mean crooks as these howlers make out, then "nationalization" would mean merely, multiplying business growth by greater growth. The fact is that the rail-transportation system of this country is, right now, the best of any country on earth, and it is doing more and better work than ever before.

Many K. U. Students Win Gold Hat Cord At Fort Riley Camp
Twenty-five Received Commissions—Have Been Assigned To New Army
Men from K. U., were unusually successful in obtaining commissions at the first officers' training camp at Ft. Riley, which ended August 15. The men received commissions ranging from a capitation to a second lieutenancy.
Turning aside from their school work, many men ready to become seniors, answered the call of their country in its appeal for men to train for officers in the national army of drafted men. But they were well repaid for their three months gruelling drill and study of military tactics under the critical eyes of veteran army officers. Instead of the usual six months time they were taught skillfully how to fundamentals of military tactics into the head of the average rookie these men became officers which were approved by the severe army critics in a period of three months.
While in camp they received $100 a month and were supplied with food and clothes. But every man who returned home after the first two months of work admitted he earned the salary. The camp opened June 15 as a dozen other camps located in all parts of the United States.
Some of the men are already in active service while others are waiting for the national army to arrive at the training posts before being called out to drill the new men. Several men have been sent to France to study actual war conditions in the trenches or near the firing line. Wint Smith, a football lineman on the K. U. football team last fall, is now in厦门 attending an expected that these men will return after about two months in Europe to teach what they have learned to new troops here, or they will fill the places left vacant by casualties among the country's forces abroad.

Dr. Florence Brown, Sherborn of Topeka has been appointed assistant professor of physical education at the University and will take up her new duties at once as successor to Dr. Dorothy Child, who has left K.U.
Doctor Sherbon has been in charge of the child hygiene bureau of the state board of health during the summer while Dr. Lydia Ali DeVibliss was away.

Women Are Ready To Do Their Bit During War
The Women's Athletic Association is ready to do its bit during the war. Work and play have been planned for the women of the University of Kansas to make them physically fit to meet any demand the country may make.
The primary purpose of the association, to promote physical efficiency and democracy, has not been changed. Tournaments for tennis, hockey, basketball, baseball, swimming and archey arouse a keen friendly competition among the players at afternoon parties and one formal dance balance the athletics and social activities.
Tennis practice will begin immediately and hockey practice starts soon. The pool will be open for swimming next week. Miss Hazel Pratt, director of sports, is making an effort to have the pool opened two hours every day, instead of two days a week.
Every woman in the University is entitled to use the gymnasium apparatus and the pool and can take part in games, but she must belong to the Athletic Association before she may join the Membership to the organization is not open until November. Last year the membership reached 300.
Stanley Jones in Marine Corps
Stanley S. Jones, former student of the University, recently received an appointment to the Quartermaster School of the United States Marine Corps. He is now stationed at Paris Island, S. C.
Jones enlisted at Kansas City early in January and was sent to the Marine Recruiting depot at Paris Island for a course in military training. He was assigned himself and was filling the position of acting corporal at the time his company was transferred to Santo Domingo for expeditionary duty. He states that the Marine Corps offers training that is unequalled by any other academy in the United States and is highly pleased with the service.

Students on Oread To "Shoulder Arms" If Plans Work Out
Chancellor Has Asked Government To Co-operate In Military Training at K. U.
Whether the University of Kansas has compulsory military drill this semester will soon be decided by the War Department at Washington. Chancellor Frank Strong has wired the department that he is in favor of for his military training here, mainly for students in freshman and sophomore years.
E. M. Briggs, assistant professor of German, will supervise much of the work if the officials at Washington military courses in the University.
It seems doubtful whether the government will be able to supply K. U, with a man to teach military tactics, and Mr. Templin, who on reserve duty is being called into active service, according to Dean Olin Templin. Many men from the reserve list are being used in training camps of the national army, but the universitys have been able to train an army man to teach military work.
In the meantime, freshmen and sophomores will have regular gymnasium work until the plans of the department of physical education are changed by the War Department. Most of them will directly help the student prepare for service in military forces, will be offered this semester and there is a possibility of several others being added. A course in signal corps work in the form of electrical telegraphy will be open to all students at the University as well as a course in the theoretical side of aviation work.
If Professor Briggs is chosen to have charge of the work, K. U. will have a capable man at the head of the department. He has seen several years of active service in the national guard as member of Company M, the University unit. This summer he has been at Harvard Univer

Continue To Train Youth For Service Say Nation Leaders
Young Men In School Are Not Failing to Serve Their Country
Templin Sent Out Inquiries
Wilson, General Wood, Goethals and Others Urge Continuation of College Training
The youth of America should continue their work in the colleges and universities that the country may not suffer and fall back for lack of trained men and women, according to leaders in all branches of American affairs, in reply to a query sent out by Olin Templin, dean of the College, in an effort to ascertain the best course for young men and women to pursue in this time of international crisis.
Is a boy wasting his time by continuing or beginning a college education? Is he neglecting his best opportunity of serving his country by going to school? President Wilson, General Wood, John Wanamaker, Secretary of War, Secretary of the Navy and leading business and professional men of the country responded to the inquiries.
Dean Templin's inquiries were addressed almost entirely to business and professional men and not to educators. Educators naturally would advise a college education—that's part of their business. For many, the advice to the President and other foremost men of America to the boys of America:
SCHOOLS AS USUAL—WILSON
"It would seriously impair America's prospects of success in this war if the supply of highly trained men were unnecessarily diminished," President Wilson writes. "There will be need to expand the number of expert in the various fields of applied science than ever before I therefore have no hesitation in urging colleges and technical schools to endeavor to maintain their courses as far as possible on the usual basis. I would particularly urge upon the young people who are leaving our high schools that as many of them as can avail themselves this year of the opportunities offered by the end that the country may not lack an adequate supply of trained men and women."
Daniel Willard, president of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and chairman of the advisory commission of the Council of National Defense, joins with Hollie Godfrey, chairman of the College of Engineering and engineering, in declaring that "The United States will suffer incalculably if there is a general falling off in the attendance at higher institutions. Should operations of the higher institutions be seriously reduced the industrial life of the country must inevitably be affected by war. The South suffered such a shortage of trained leaders after the Civil War. The effects of this shortage lasted nearly a generation. Colleges of liberal arts have proved to be the best producers of raw materials out of which fashion officers. This is the unanimous mayday in Canada. American colleges may be expected to make the same contribution Indeed, they are already making it It is essential for the country's welfare that a constant supply of intelligent and adaptable young mer should be turned out of these insti
WOOD'S OPINION CONCURS
"I believe young men in college and those contemplating entering, but who are below the draft age or who have not been drafted, should go on with their college work, at least for
the present." That is the opinion of Mae. Gen. Leonard Wood, commandant of the National Army Camp at Fort Riley, Kansas.
"We have drafted more men than we shall be able to equip for a long time and there are more men it included in the draft age than we shall want for a considerable period," General Wood adds. "On the other hand, we have a steady output of technically trained men in order to meet the demands of the war. Young men can prepare themselves to serve better later on if they are well educated and well trained to take up the different lines of technical and professional training encouraged young boys, who are half educated, from giving up their studies—this for the simple reason that we cannot use them to advantage. Of course, should a situation arise in which every available man is needed, then everything should be made available; a person is physically fit should go, but such a situation has not yet arisen."
LABOR LEADER SUPPORTS SCHOOLS Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, has this national duty and his education:
"It is my opinion wherever it is possible that institutions and the training necessary for the highest development in times of peace and for the betterment of all citizens ought to be maintained in times of war with the least possible interference. Young people who are not in immediate military service owe it to themselves and their future usefulness to the world to take advantage of every available educational opportunity."
"It will be little short of a national calamity should great numbers of young American boys under military age leave college or fail to enter because of their desire to help in more direct fields of service," says F. A. Vanderlip, president of the National City Bank of New York. "I believe our young boys who will continue their college work will render their country the highest possible service for the problems to be solved in the future, and they can evidence their patriotism by earnestly pursuing their college courses until they are called for direct national service."
"Go right ahead along the lines they had planned," is the suggestion of John Wanamaker, nationally known retail merchant. He adds that college men should take any military training provided at their schools and pursue "their studies in the usual way that they may be prepared for any call their country may make upon them, and at the same time lay a foundation for their life work when the war is over."
SHOULD TAKE MILITARY DELL Gen. GEORGE W. Goethals, who built the Panama Canal, said: "Until young men are required by the military purposes under the system of selective conscription that has been adopted, I think they should take advantage of the intervening time to acquire all possible knowledge to equip themselves for life's battles. Of course, while pursuing their studies they would be provided with military training as best available."
The provost marshal general, E. H. Illumann, has ordered the heads the drift position work and;
"Many believe the wisest course for such young men is to attend college and to take such military training as can be provided and pursue such studies as may best prepare them for citizenship. In reply, I beg to say that I concur with this view, but I would suggest, in order to make students or undertake any line of work which would interfere with the full and generous performance of the duties to which they may be called during this crisis."
Among other well known men who strongly urged the young man not to neglect his education at this time are the Secretary of War, the Secretary of the Navy; E. E. P.Ripley, president of the Santa Fe Railroad; Brig. Henry T. Allen, Admiral F. F.Fletcher, Admiral W. S. Benson.
chief of naval operations; Maj. Gen. Thomas H. Barry and many others. The letters are being printed on a paper folder of the resident Kansas on application to the department of journalism at the University.
Two New Pastors Greet Returning Student Body
University students will find new ministers in the First Baptist and the First Congregational churches this fall. The Rev. Frank Jennings will succeed the Rev. O, C. Brown at the former and the Rev. Ross at the former to make the place of the Rev. Noble Strong Elderin, at the latter church.
Mr. Sanderson was graduated in 1905 from Oberlin College. He was ordained in 1908. For the last eight years he has been pastor of the First Congregational Church at Sandusk, O. Mrs. Sanderson and their small son will come to Lawrence next month to make their home.
Both ministers are young men and it is expected they will have a large following among University students because they both understand the problems of the student and will always be ready to advise.
Mr. Jennings is a Kansas man and is a graduate of Ottawa University where he took an active part in debating and Y. M. C. A. work. He will be serving as the presiding in neighboring towns, Mr. Jennings is not a stranger to the University and Lawrence churchgoers as he spoke at the First Baptist Church one Sunday morning last summer. He also is a graduate of the Divinity School of the University of Oklahoma and a graduate of the University School of Fine Arts. Her maiden name was Miss Corle.
Grady Brings Track Man Back to His Alma Mater
University grads remember their Alma Mater. Saturday Archie Grady, former track man, returned to Lawrence with the star football and track man of Collinsville, Okla., high school last year, where Grady taught history and had charge of athletics. The new man is Frank Lexander, a freshman who does 100-yard dash in 10-2. He plays in the backfield and at end in the gridiron game. He will enroll as a freshman this year.
Grady will teach at Gardner this year where he is principal of the high school. Archie was Varsity two-miler and miler in 1915 and 1914, as well as being one of the best runners on the cross country team.

East Spells "War"
With Dollar Mark,
Says Kansas Prof.
Patriotism
Many in Atlantic States More Interested in Profits Than Patriotism
Many persons in the East are viewing this country's entrance into the world war as a war being waged for their profit or whatever they can get out of it. Such was the attitude found by B. F. Moore, associate president of the University of Kansas, who returned from Washington and New York last week. While in the capitol of the country, he studied conditions in Congress and the attitude taken by persons connected with the government of the country to pursue interests in muniton plants, and shipping companies.
Washington is crowded by hundreds of persons, a majority of whom have gone there to help the Nation in its war work and are working for practically nothing, Mr Moore said. The city, usually deserted in summer is as lively as New York in the winter months. Many men from university and college faculties from every part of Washington have been in Washington this summer working in and any capacity they could be of service and for small pay. Men who receive four and five thousand dollars a year at their school work have being receiving $25 a week and they would have worked for less if such a salary had been fixed.
In spite of the inclination of the average person in the East to leaf on the job, said Mr. Moore, the administrative part of the government is rushing war preparations through at high speed. The War Department is not preparing for three months of fighting, which was a mistake England made. Rather, they are getting ready for a 3-year campaign.
Now that war actually has come, the East which had so much war talk is falling behind in its war work, Mr. Moore believes. Practically all eastern states have also been involved in the army, navy, and national guard. These gaps are being filled by men who have been drafted. The east, being interested in many war industries, looks pretty closely at the business side of the war. Because they can make $6 to $7 a person, as semi-skilled munition or many persons naturally have a tentency to measure the war in dollars and cents.
In contrast to this attitude, Mr. More found some of the higher government officials working hard for a dollar a year salary and their love of country. The assistant to the secretary of agriculture is the important assistants to the Food Commissioner, draw one dollar a year each for their work.
Men in the ordinance department of the government are working overtime. All hours in the government employment have been lengthened and most of the departments are working in two shifts, and most of the night. The White House is guarded day and night, at night by a cordon of twenty national guardsmen.
Many leaders at present in the Senate have been put in office by manufacturers and men making the most out of the war, and these Senators naturally do not feel inclined to boost a measure that would injure their friends back home. Mr. Moore declared. He explained that, although that it was human nature for the leaders at Washington to turn to the easiest means of getting money to carry on the war and that was by taxing all
products. It was simply a form of war hysteria which comes during the first year of any war, he said.
Bridges and waterworks in the East are being guarded by civilian guards, policemen in most instances. Few cities in the East have home guards or business men's regiments. Mr. Moore said that Kansas City probably was the first city in the land to have such an organization.
The day before Mr. Moore left the capital there was a huge military parade of 80,000 men in honor of the men who had been called into service. Most of the price in the Cabinet wore silk hats and formal dress, but President Wilson wore a straw hat, a blue cost and white trousers.

War Demands Cut Down German Language Courses
A tendency to leave out a few courses in Germanic languages and to add in French and Italian is noticed by students returning to the University this fall. In Spanish there are also a few more comprehensive courses offered. A new feature in the language department is a course in Russian language, being given for the first time to fill the expected demand caused by New courses in French and Italian languages are used to have been allowed changes of war demands.

Football Stock Goes Up With Return of Players Not Expected This Year
Frank P. Mandeville and Other Gridiron Heroes May Be In Lineup Against Illinois
All candidates for Varsity football check out their suits today and report for practise at theatres at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon.
All candidates for the freshman team check out suits at the earliest possible moment at the west end of the gymnasium. Notice of time to report will be published later.
Stock in the University of Kansas football team took a big advance when W. O. Hamilton, manager of the Buckeyes, deville, the fast and speedy backfield man on last season's freshman队 probably would be back in school this fall for football. The back field will be the weakest part of the Jayhawker eleven when it lines up for the first game with the University of Illinois, October 6, and Coach "Bean" Olcott could easily use several good men in lugging of pigskin.
Other men who were not counted on may be out for the first practices next week. Earl Shim, the star end of last season, probably will be able to play through the football season, although the service may call him then. Scrubby Lastett will be back for the other end position, while Warren Woody and R. Ruble probably will be the guards.
At left tackle, there will be George Nettles, the man who was a tower of strength in the freshman line last season and who was one of the fastest men that the Varsity had to go up against last fall. There is a possibility of Jack Frost's returning to fill the other tack position, but if he does not, the coaches will have to pick a man from their last year's team. In addition to his material, unless Bob Marvin returns to the University, Jean Minor, the brilliant headed youth from Burlingame, is the logical player for center because of his great playing last year in snite of his light weight.
For the backfield, there will be Stem Foster at quarter, and possibly Eddie Todd. For the two halves, Pringle and Mandeville appear to be the best men because of their weight and speed. Other material for these two positions will have to be developed. With Captain Harry Nielsen back in the University, the trouble of the coaches in filling the position of fullback are over.
With Captain Swede Nielsen already in Lawrence ready for work, along with the return of F. M. Ziegler and Joe Casey, the expectations of a good team at the University were further strengthened. Casey was a star on the sophomore class team last fall when the team won the class championship. His speed off the field helped for the second year men had much to do with the victory. Ziegler was a good player at end on the junior team last fall, and he was a consistent player in the back field.
Soldiers to Play Baseball
Company M and Company H Cross Bats On McCook
Company H, the down town company, and Company M, the University of Kansas unit, of the First Kansas Regiment will meet in a baseball game four-fronted afternoon plan was to play a football game, but it was thought that many of the men were not in good enough shops for a game so soon in the season. It will be the first all University attendant to be given since K. U. has opened, a large crowd is expected.
Women students will be admitted free, but to others the admission will be 25 cents. The game will start at three o'clock. All money made from the game will be added to the company funds of the two organizations. As a special feature, there will be a drill by both companies before the game. This will be one of the closing games. The company will be able to swell their company fund, and men in the organization are working hard to get to shape for the game. The company fund, it was explained by members of the company, is used to provide the few extras or luxuries which he men otherwise would not have in amp.
Hamilton Will Continue
Cross Country Work Here
There will be no let-up in the cross country work this fall, and W. O. Hamilton, manager hopes to have as strong a team as that which finished second in the Missouri Valley Conference race last year. Rod Fedyck, track captain last year and for most of his career in the team will coach the team this fall. He is teaching history in the Lawrence high school this year.
If Rodkey is able to instill some of the great running qualities into his men that he has shown in his four years of track work at the University, the success of this year's cross squad is assured. Rodkey smashed a second time during thing like four times during his track career at the Jayhawker school, and is at present holder of the K. U. record for that distance. Besides running the half he was one of the strong runners on the relay team, and tried his hand at the quarter mile and two mile races. His work in the country runs of five miles were a feature of every run he entered.
No word has been received from Harry Rinker, captain of this year's team, but he is expected back in time for the first workouts. Stateler, who was another of the good runners, is in Lawrence, but is ineligible to compete this fall. Floyd Welsh, Clyde Dillon, and Groene all year later, are not expected back this year. Horrene, Groene may return and he would. The rest of the team will have to be taken from last year's material and the small freshman team which practiced last season.
No coach for the freshman football team has been named nor has the assistant coach been selected to assist Olcott. Manager Hamilton is waiting to see how large a squad turns out for the first practice Tuesday before he decides on whether he need another man to help Olcott. He needs Hamilton taking charge of the work in the department of physical education if the department is small and there is difficulty in obtaining a new man. Doctor James Naismith is away on Y. M. C. A. war work.
No Rhodes Scholarship This Year
The Rhodes scholarship will not be awarded this year, according to notice received by University authorities from George R. Parkin, secretary of the Rhodes scholarship trust. The regular examination for applicants will be held the same as usual for years 2 and 3, but the election will not be held until no year or possibly until the war is over. Appointments based on the examinations this year and the years following will be made after conditions become more settled.
Warren Wattles, senior in College spent the summer in Estes Park. Incidentally Mister Wattles Y. M. C. Aed the first part of the hot months and spent the last part of the year climbing mountains just for the fun of coming back down. This showed great thought on the part of Mister Wattles for some folks never even think of coming back.

"Tony" Now Gives Orders
To Former Gridiron Boss
D. L. (Tony) Toney took a few orders from L. B. McCarty, K. U. freshman football coach five years ago, but now the tables are reversed. Tony James is captain of Company B, Kansas Engineers, now encamped at Ft. Sill, Okla., and Coach McChair, being first sergeant in the unit, takes orders from his former rather adept pupil.
Two other star football men from the University of Kansas are in this same company. Bill Weidline and Harold Brownlee, both great players on the 1913 eleven, are first lieutenants in this engineering organization. The four would make a good nucelus for a football squad, K. U. fans believe.

Butler Announces Artists Who Appear On Concert Course
NUMBER 2
UNIVERSITY OF KANSASWEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 19, 1917.
Eight Numbers Scheduled For Recitals at University This Season
Noted Figures are Coming
Zoelnners and Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra Here Again —Prices the Same
This year the University will present for the benefit of its students and the townpeople a better course than was given last year. The first concert will be given October 24 by the well-known tenor of the Metropolitan Opera Company, Paul Althouse. Although Mr. Althouse has performed but six years with the Metropolitan Opera, he has already created three big tenor roles. That means he has been chosen from the senors of the company to sing at their first performances in the Metropolitan Opera House.
Good music is more in demand now than ever before according to Dean Harold L. Butter of the School of Fine Arts. Even the government is engaging specialists to teach men in training camps how to sing. Good music can be taught, nourished by schools, churches, and by the initiative of private individuals.
WELL-KNOWN CONTRALTO COMING Christine Miller, contralto, will give the second concert in November. Miss Miller is one of the most popular contraltoes before the public today. Such is the demand for her recital that when Dean Butler tried to get her for last year's performance he found all her time taken, so he engaged her at once for this year. Miss Miller is an American, who delights in singing American songs in English.
Albert Spalding, violinist, another American, will give the third concert in December. Mr. Spalding had overwhelming success on the concert course three years ago. He has been a distinguished singer everywhere, every great orchestra in the country.
in December. Mr. Spalding had overwhelming success on the concert course three years ago. He has played during the last five years with every great orchestra in the country. January will bring a young pianist who will play at home or be without an equal in the last twenty years. Absolutely unknown except to a few eighteen months ago, and now the most discussed of them, all Mischa Levitzki was born near Kiev, Russia. At the age of eight he came to America with his parents. He remained here only four years when he returned to Europe to study piano. At the age of sixteen he toured the principal cities of Europe giving recitals. A year ago he came to America to study in such demand for recitals that even demand has been filled a year in advance.
On April 3, three artists will give a "popular" concert. Karl Kirksmith, solo 'cellist with the New York Symphony Orchestra, will be the principal attraction. Cecile Brainard, a young American pianist, who was giving recitals in Europe when the war broke out, is with the company. Mrs. Nita Taylor, a former music teacher of Fine Arts, is the vocalist of the company. Mrs. Taylor was a success at the Kansas City festival last May.
The Zoelner String Quartet will return to Lawrence for its sixth concert March 4. Their Indian music alchemy has been enjoyed at the University.
The seventh and eighth concerts will be given in May by the Minnesota Symphony Orchestra of fifty ensembles, including those of Emilie Oberhoffer. The orchestra will be with it six soloists, four vocalists, a violinist, and a 'cellist'.
AT THE SAME PRICE
The price of season tickets will be the same as last year. Reserved seats for the eight concerts, in the front and center of the hall, will sell for $4.50. The remainder of the seats and the balcony are $3.50. University students may purchase the $4.50 seats for $3.50 and $3.50 seats for $2.50 at the Registrar's office after October 15. The $4.50 seats will be sold by mail. All orders should be addressed to H. L. Butler, Lawrence, and must enclose a self addressed stamped envelope.
Government to Make Glass
Prof. F.B. Dains, who has just returned from a meeting of the American Christian Church, D. C., said this morning arrangements recently were completed whereby the government will make all optical glass needed for naval and military purposes. This glass has been imported heretofore but America has not engaged in it mented until they have a process which furnishes a glass considered equal to that previously imported.
Government to Make Glass
Chancellor Will Talk On "Problems, New and Old"
"Problems, New and Old," is the subject of the address of welcome Chancellor Strong will give to new students at the first All-University convolution in Robinson Gymnastics Friday morning at ten o'clock. All morning class periods will be cut ten hours following the plan used last year.
The first period class will meet at 8:30 o'clock as usual, the 9:30 class at 9:20 o'clock and convocation at ten o'clock. The remaining time will be divided between the last two periods.
A double quartet from the School of Fine Arts will sing the national anthem. Cheerleader Rusty Friend will make his first appearance before a K. U. audience and the freshmen have an opportunity to give a "Rock Chalk."
Will Raise Fund For University Students Who Battle Germans
Campaign Is On Now and Everyone May Contribute Friday Morning
A campaign to raise a company fund for the Jayhawkster soldier boys has been launched and within the next few days every student in the University will be given a chance to give to the fund. Many small towns and cities have raised company funds of $2,000 to $3,000 and it is hoped the University body will respond to the cause as generously.
A company fund has become a necessity with soldiers according to Captain Frank Jones, Company M. Many things must be bought which the government does not provide. You need them to receive their pay checks on time, and they cannot purchase the little things they must have.
OLD FUND IS DEPLETED
The students of the University raised a company fund of $250 for Company M last spring, but that was a small amount for a company fund and considerable of the money already has been spent so it is necessary for the students to raise a comfortable amount before the unit leaves for Ft. Sill, Okla., if the University soldiers are to be cared for as well as soldiers from other cities and towns.
A fund of $1000 seems a large amount for a company but when it is divided between 250 men it does not seem so large. Every cent of the fund goes to the captain of the company to see that each man gets the full benefit of the fund. With as large an enrollment as there is at the University, Captain Jones does not anticipate quality in raising a comfortable fund.
TO SOLICIT FRIDAY MORNING
The first convoitation of the year will be held in Robinson Gymnasium at 10 o'clock Friday morning, and just outside the gymnasium will be a booth, in charge of members of the Jayhawks or faculty member may contribute to help make life worth living for the Jayhawkers while they are fighting the country's battles in France.
Herbert Howland, senior in the University last year and one of the star runners both on the cross country team and the 1971 track team, is back at K. U. this fall to work for his master's degree.
Speaches, eats and a good time were the events of last night at the University Y. M. C. A. mixer for men in Myers Hall. One hundred twenty-five men attended. They were mostly first year men.

Walter Pickering, president of the Y. M. C. A. cabinet and Hugo Wedell, general secretary of the association spoke. Justin Blount and Wedel put on a three-round boxing match with Eddie Todd as referee. There was no decision. Doughnuts and apples were served.
The Kansan will print the names of contributors. Anyone who wishes to give to the fund may address all checks, drafts, or money orders payable to the Kansan Prank Jones, Company M, First Kansan Infantry, Lawrence, Kansas.
There will be no mixer tonight but a big get-together stag mixer will be here.
Drinking Cups Here Unsanitary---Can't Supply Paper Ones
Students Will Have to Provide Own Containers—Glasses To Be Removed
Bacteria on Fountains, Too
Cups, Furnished by Individuals Used In Violation of State Law
Thirsty students will have to carry their own cups this year for distilled water or patronize the drinking fountains in the University Library. Students will also need money to purchase paper cups and the public drink cups left under the distilled water containers are in direct violation of the state law and will be removed immediately. John Tinsley, a building hallways and grounds, said this morning.
"CAN I AFFORD TAPER CUPS?
The cups used last year are the University's, and the number would cost over $700 this year, because of the increased cost of paper. The money for health purposes is not sufficient to cover this expense."
"The glasses were placed under the containers by students or faculty," Mr. Shea said. "The University officials had nothing to do with it.
CAN'T AFFORD PAPER CUPS
Because of this increased cos plans were made by the health auth orties last spring to install more fountains for city water and to dispense with distilled water. The fountains were ordered the latter part of June but have not yet arrived. As son as they come and are up there will be no more distilled water on the Hill.
A glass taken from Fraser was tested by Dr. Ida H. Hyde of the department of physiology and was found covered with bacteria. The drinking fountains also contain bacteria, Dr. Hyde said, owing to the practice of touching the lips to the fountain in drinking.
SHOULD BE DISINFECTED DAILY
SOLVED
"I order to the fountains perfectly safe, they should be cleaned and thoroughly disinfected every day," Dr. Hyde said.
"There were no drinking cups in the Chemistry Building all summer and a student was seen making a drinking fountain out of the fawcet tree." The health officers can do nothing without student co-operation.
"Every student should carry his own cup and so co-operate with the University authorities in enforcing the sanitary regulations. Especial care should be exercised in using the drinking fountains. Every time the lips touch the metal hundreds of germs are left."
Open House Every Day For Women at Y. W. C. A.
"Open house every day" is the plan of Miss Kathine Duffield, secretary of the Y. W. C.A., for the association headquarters this year. The room in Myers Hall has been furnished with couches and comfortable chairs to make it a good place to rest as well as a social center where the women students may meet their old friends and get acquainted with new ones.
Miss Duffield will welcome new students, especially, whom she will be glad to help in any way she can. Her office hours for the first few days of school will be from eight-thirty to twelve o'clock in the morning and from two until five o'clock in the afternoons.
The following courses in Aerospace
autoeatures are offered in the School of
Education.
Aeronautics I: Types of machines, general theory of flights, resistance of air, size and shape of component parts, propellers and stability. First semester, two hours, Tuesday and Thursday at 11:30 o'clock.

Frats Reap Annual Crop Of Freshmen Competition Sharp
War Thinned Ranks of Men and Rushing Was Unusually Brisk
Joyrides and Mixers End
Lads Now Will Be Shown Further Into Mysteries of Brotherhood
Twelve national and three local fraternities brought three days of strenuous "rushing" to a close last night at midnight with the largest crop of Greek letter piedges in the history of the University.
The war thinned the ranks of nearly every organization and the fact that fewer men than ever before have registered for schooling at K. College could not be done between the Greeks bitter. No outward breaks came, however, but a prized freshman was not given much freedom after he hit Lawrence unless accompanied by one of the officers who had better aggregation that wanted him.

Walter Raymond, in charge of the Co-operative Book exchange at the check stand in Fraser Hall, reports that books are coming in rapidly. He asks that books be brought in at once to insure their sale. All books in use at the University are accepted by the book exchange.
The exchange was established two years ago by the Men's Student Council. Ten per cent commission is charged for the expense of handling the books which goes to the treasury and for paying the change will be open from 8:30 to 12 o'clock in the morning and from 2 to 4:30 in the afternoon.
Plain Tales
Anxious Inquirer writes in: Are those brown tents across the way from Robinson Gymnasium the new educational burial new Administration Building?
Deducting from this fact that it rained we find it will rain next year, the freshman still will be paddled, the sororities will say naughty things about each other, the war will continue, the fried chicken served by a downtown cafe will turn out to be messy and pass some revolutions and the freshman will be handed some way if they don't wear caps.
Well, the rain tried to reign last night so that we all wouldn't be disappointed. Every year now since Heck was a pup rain has fallen upon the heads of the just and unjust during registration week. Up until late last night every one was beginning to believe that dire things would happen without this annual rain. But the rain relieved the fear.
We took a walk down town tessier day afternoon just for walking exercise. We wish we had been a lawyer now. For here and there and everywhere from Watkins corner to the agents for laundries and clubs and rooming houses and pressing clubs and the Kansan solicitors and frat men and more laundry agents and more club men and more rooming house men and more pressing club men and more Kansan men and more frat men.
All of which was gladdening to

"our pooked."
Lots of nice automobile rides were taken into the country round about last night and many heart-to-heart tete-tete talks were indulged in during the trip. Unfortunately unsuspecting underclasmen. Readers are published elsewhere in this issue.
Stories of social blunders when registering and enrolling still abound among upperclass persons who think it's cute. One girl is the real infant prodigy of this little warriered school. In the space left below her birth she wrote this little girl wrote May 16, 1917. And she is a junior on the Hill.
Then there was the freshman girl who almost didn't register Monday when she read on the card that one can't change one's name after one has written one's name on one's card. "And here I came to this school for matrimonial purposes," she told a Big Sister.
Another freshman—man this time —wrote his address "Sig AIG fh house." "What is the address of the house?" asked John Burke, a bureau in charge, "I don't know, and I registrant. "It's way out in the country over that way some place."
There were more than two hundred women in the gallery yesterday at nine o'clock awaiting their turn to nellow. We walked around the place once. And we saw only three women knitting and tatting for the sailors and soldiers. Are our women getting "slack" in their duty?
We spoke yesterday of true Bohemia in the shape of horns and drums et al that will infest our heretofore quiet quarters this year. Now we have been added to. Another fish mound in yesterday and he plays the violin.

The soldiers have had to pick the
hume. Hence the persickitiness
of them.
Soldiers get mighty perspicacity when they become soldiers. Last year you could have found any of their wounds on your hand or feet on the floor and nothing in sight.
But this year since they work for Uncle Sam they have grown careful. So they have found plenty of extra work in keeping the grounds around the gym clean. Papers and hand-bills and cards—are strewn around the ground by solicitors who don't care.
Registration Total Reaches 2,000;Four Women to Each Man
Figures At Noon Today More Than 400 Below Last Year's Number
Few Classes Closed Early
Courses Usually Filled In Morning Remained Open All Dav
Registration figures at noon today totaled exactly 2000, which is more than four hundred students less than had registered at the same time last year. Very few were registering this afternoon and the final figure on the week's work is not expected to go much above 2000.
Dean Ellin Templin of the College believes it would be difficult to predict the total enrollment for the fall semester now on account of the fact that many students are remaining at home to harvest crops. Others have been sending them will enter the University, due, mainly, to unsettled conditions.
CLASSES NOT CROWDED
The end of the first half day of enrollment at the gym yesterday found many classes which are ordinarily crowded, only partially filled. Less in the day several classes were满了, generally are filled at 9:30 o'clock.
In spite of the new seating arrangement, the lack of sufficient number of professors to help with the enrolment or lack of co-operation caused endless delay for the students enrolling. The new plan of separating freshmen from upperclassmen was a aid and better system on the part of some students that would have worked wonders. Students were sent to the main floor in Robinson Gymnasium to enroll in their subjects.
MANY WOMEN AND FRESHMEN Many freshmen were lined up outside of the gymnasium as early as six-thirty o'clock yesterday morning so they could get in early enough to play a program. Even some of the uppermen got out on the scene a little later. To all other appearances it was the same scene which is always staged outside of the building.
But there was a lack of juniors and seniors, and an unusually large number of girls. In fact, those in charge of registration believe the ratio will be four to one in favor of the women.
Prof. R. E. Putnam, the economic expert at the University for several years, was missed in his usual role of bawling out the names of changed courses. In his place several strong "subbed." Several times the Greek sisters and brothers lost their would-be pledges on account of the separation of the freshman and upperclassman.
Medical Students Drawn for Service May Finish Course
Fourth, Third and Second Year Medics Are Affected By New Order
Censorship of applications for entrance into the School of Medicine are to be stricter this year than ever before, according to Dr. John Sundwall, this morning. Supplemental regulations governing the execution of the selective draft law have been issued by the President which peremptoriously intercedes or medical student of the fourth third or second year, to enlist in the Reserve Corps if summoned to military duty under the draft regulations
The students' privilege of completing his medical education and serving his country in this way hardly will be abused under the regulations of the Enlisted Reserve Corps. He will be discharged from service only during a time required to complete his medical education and will be subject to call any time.
Application must be made to the Surgeon-general by a student or hospital interne who is drafted for permission to enter the Enlisted Reserve Corps. After he is accepted by the local board he is not sent to the mobilization camp but the local district will be credited with one man.
The hospital interne or medical student must be in a well recognized hospital or school. The purpose of the exemption rule is obvious as the student's service to the government may be of greater value as a well trained doctor than as a private in the new army.

FOR FRESHMEN
Two events on the University Calendar this week should have the attention of every freshman on the Hill.
One is the All-University Convocation in the gym Friday morning. The other is the freshman blow out in Mvers Hall Saturday evening
Every student is expected to attend the convocation Friday. At that time Chancellor Strong will give his annual address of welcome, and there will be the usual program of music and prayer. At that meeting, almost a thousand and a half young Kansans who are at K. U. for the first time this week, will have an opportunity to hear about the school, its history, its methods, and its ideals, direct from the lips of the Chancellor himself. In a way, it will be like a personal visit with Mr. Strong—because he will tell every man and every woman what is expected of them during the coming year. No student with the real Kansan spirit will miss it.
The blowout Saturday is an annual affair, given by the Y. M. C. A. for freshmen men. There will be speeches, stunts, and music—and the hundreds of men who are expected to attend will have a lively time during every minute of an evening crammed full of peppery entertainment.
A senior on the Hill says he has never yet missed a freshman blowout, and that when he is here in the future years and one is being given, he will attend. Dutch Wedell—whom every K. U. man knows, and who is the friend of every K. U. man—is a live Y. M. secretary who does live things, and one of those things is the annual freshman blowout.
Be there, Mr. Freshman!
IT'S OVER
"Pledge Night" for the fraternities is now a thing of the past, and several hundred proud young freshmen are strutting about Mount Oread this morning wearing the colors of the "Only fraternity." Doubtless a good many of the hard-pushed rushes are glad it's all over—for most probably they didn't enjoy being inspected by various and sundry fraternity men, held up for criticism, and then forced to abide by the verdict of forty-eight hours acquaintanceship. Nor did the fraternity men themselves particularly enjoy the "annual scramble"—though the ones that succeeded in getting the richest prizes are of course "telling the world" about it today.
Nevertheless, it's over now—and the fraternity population of K. U. is glad. There will be a few additional pledgings, of course—strugglers who couldn't see their way clear to make a decision last night. But within a few days most of the excitement will have died down, and even the new Greeks themselves will forget the
strenuousness of the "rush" after they take up the routine of their new school duties.
THREE TO ONE
Three women to one man at the University this year!
Gosh!
The dance hall managers will look forward to only slight profits from their rentals this season; the clothiers will get "cold feet" on the size of the stock they should attempt to carry; and the restaurant folks will wonder who's going to buy the smooths and the cokes for the sweet young things all year.
But will they?
One Lawrence clothier says his business to date has exceeded by several thousand dollars the sales up to this time last year; and that before the fall advance in price went into effect. A restaurant proprietor is worrying nights about how he's going to handle the crowds at his cafe and a hurry-call for soda dispensers has been necessary. And in all other lines of business activity wherein students are concerned, there seems to be nothing but prosperity.
And why not?
Kansas folks have plenty of money—both to spend and to save. They can spend all that they ought to spend and still have plenty to save.
Prosperity and high prices are two inevitable accompaniments of war-time.
A l's o—thank goodness—“business as usual.”
OTHER OPINIONS
A PLEDGE TO MANHOOD
Twelve hundred young men training at San Francisco to become officers in the National Army have signed a pledge. It is not "the pledge" in the old blue ribbon sense, but a broader, more comprehensive, more positive declaration. It commits them not merely to abstention but to constructive personal effort. It reads thus:
"We undertake to maintain our part of the war free from hatred, brutality or graft, true to the American purpose and ideals.
"Aware of the temptations inci-
dental to camp life and the moral and
social wreckage involved, we covet-
ent together to live the clean life
and to establish the American
uniform as a symbol and guarantee
of real manhood.
"We pledge our example and our influence to make these ideals dominate."
Army life, especially in time of war, is beset by grievous pitfalls. The prime protection against falling into them is personal determination, especially when it is buttressed by the power of community example.
The Y. M. C. A. is doing splendid work in thus co-ordinating the impulses toward decease of the young children under the new army —The Independent.
The cultural-vocational controversy in education is going to have its innings again this winter, war or no war. We have no idea of settling the problem for our students summer by Rowland E. Prothero, British President of the Board of Agriculture: "It is not a man's calling to be a laborer or a lawyer or even a land agent. In the wider sense of the word, a man's calling is a job, a occupation issue sight of it, that it is no longer education—Collier's.
ON AN OLD THEME
A man who neglects his health, even though not in the military service, is in this time of war, something of a slacker. Physical fitness helps towards efficiency, and efficiency must be manifest all over the country if we are to win the war. "If you cannot fight, keep fit," is a good motto for our civilian population.—The Outlook.

By the Way
BUSH—according to Webster means to move forward with impetuosity, violence, tumultuous rapidity or haste.
And this is rush week at K. U. Maybe so but everybody will agree that the week has been sadly misnamed. 'Tis true everybody rushed to get up and rushed to the Hill with tumultuous rapidity and there was a lot of violence in doors with violence and impetuosity but there the rush ceased. Those in charge of registration and enrollment know not how to hasten. What's more the rush is not over. Many somebody will have to rush up the Hill Saturday morning to change a faculty schedule because they were late and rush up into their sororities to assist with the rushing next year.
The second rush is scheduled for the week preceding finals, when everybody rushes to make up 18 weeks' work.

Nine Jayhawkers Out For First Practice Of Year; More Men Needed
Captain Swede Nielsen Gives Call for Additional Material —Practice Every Day
The Jayhawk gridiron forces got into action for the first time this season yesterday afternoon on Hamilton Field, when Coach Beau Olletti suited up for the game for a few players who sued up and wanted to limber up a little.
Jones is out for a guard position, while Liggitt, tackle; Deveson, center; and Bunn, Wenzel, Shores, Ogilev and Simon the backfield positions.皮尔森在扑中，passing the ball, rolling on the ball, and setting up exercises.
Enrollment kept many of the last year letter men away from the practice but most of the candidates are expected out for the practice this week. Practice will continue regularly every afternoon except on Sundays.
The practice started about half past three and did not close until about five-fifteen. Nine players were out although most of the men were new candidates and were not out to play. Varsity or class teams last season.
Captain Swede Nielsen was at the practice for a short time but looked the players over from the sidelines as he was so busy enrolling that he did not get time to don his football pharaphernalia. He predicted a good outcome in the allys who are already in school can remain throughout the football season.
The players who were out to the practice yesterday afternoon were Jones, Liggitt, and Bunn, lettermen from last year's freshman squad, Ziegler, a good end in the interclass series last year, and Wenzel, Deveson, Shores, Oglevic, and Simon, who are new candidates this year.
SPORT BEAMS
Every football played who intends to come out for the Varsity team this year should report immediately, says Manager W. O. Hamilton. The first game of the season is only a little over two weeks away and the team must be whipped into shape before that time.
It is not known whether it is due to the increased enrollment of women this year, but there was not an old letter man on the football team and he was gone a few years after afternoon. The first game is with Illinois, October 6.
Captain Dutch Ublraub is not worrying about a center for the basketball quintet this year. Runt Slauanader, who is considerably over six feet long has enrolled and intends to come out strong to make the team. He was in the University last year for a while and will have enough credits to be eligible by the time the basketball season opens.
Henderson Martin, expert member of the Philippines, will speak at the North Lawrence Christian church Sunday night, September 23, at 8 o'clock. This is one of a series of lectures given at that church by members of the University faculty and men from other parts of the state. The course is under the direction of several members of the faculty of McKeever College Sunday night on the High Cost of Amusement." A quartet from Company M will sing before the lecture tomorrow night.
The freshmen are good sports. The most notable example of this sportsmanship was seen shortly after daylight yesterday morning when the young men readily gave the best positions for enrollment near the door to the young women. It may be well to add, however, that there were nine young women and three young men. This fact coupled with the showing of the Russian women in the war may throw some light on the matter.

Professors and Students Taught "Trench French"
Prof, M. C, Elmer of the department of sociology has just returned from Ft. Riley and Camp Funston where he has been teaching classes in English and elementary French, G. L, Eckroyl and G. E, Howie, graduate students this year and Prof. F. A. Cowper were also engaged in work.
The classes were for privates and officers and were given by the extension division of the University through the Y. M. C. A. No charge for instruction was made. The enrollment was large but successfully handled by the small force of instructors.
Academy of Science Moved Here During Summer from Capitol
Change Was Provided For By Last Legislature—8000 Books In Library
The Kansas Academy of Science moved its headquarters, library, and museum to the University from the Memorial Building in Topeka this summer. This was provided for by an act of the last legislature.
The office of the academy is in the tower of Fowler Shops. The books have not yet been opened to the public because there is not enough library room for the 8000 books at the University.
The Kansas Academy of Science was founded in 1868 to promote science in Kansas. It fosters study of mineral and agricultural products of the state, catalogues all plants and minerals, collects thousands of natural specimens, which will be on display at the University and publishes scientific service investigations done by its secretary and members.
The membership is composed of scientists of all the colleges and universities of Kansas and other scientific men. The membership now numbers 340. W. W. Swingle of the department of zoology has been secretary of the academy for the last year and will act as secretary this year until he is appointed. The last legislature appropriated $2000 for the maintenance of the academy for the next two years. Professor L. D. Havenill, B. M. Allen, and E. H. S. Bailey are members of the executive committee.
Landladers Must Sign Up To Keep Women Roomers
"The demand for rooms for women is greater this year than last." Mrs. Eustace Brown, dean of women, said this morning, "and the price of rooms has not increased with the price of board.
"All landlads who wish to stay on the approved list must use contracts this year," she said, "but no University woman will be required to sign a contract for more than one woman. We also especially that all women sign contracts for one semester but that no one sign without seeing the room.

Of course, some of you went to a military ball sometime this summer. And, of course, you saw wrist watches and swagger sticks. All the soldiers carried both of them. At the dances wrist, watches and vanity boxes vied with each other for supremacy.
Those Swagger Sticks Are Back Scratchers
But these military dances and balls and hops weren't just merely for the purpose of amusement. Rather they were instructive; they instructed in the use of the swagger stick. A swagger stick in the full sense of the word means backscratcher. After each dance most of the soldiers retreat in good order from the place where they landed, where they jab their rear rips and spines to the best of their ability, much to their satisfaction and apparent relief. Evidently those who do not wear swagger sticks wear underwear to protect their backs from the woolen shirts prescribed.
So there is the use of the swagger stick. It is a fast supplanting the work of the Chinese back scratcher who is far more in line with her carrier any place. They retail

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS HURSDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 20, 1917.
Life Of Soldiers In University Company IsOne ofHard Work
Continuous Drilling and Practice Makes K. U. Men Rank Highest in the State
Throwing Bombs Is An Art
Grenade Not Hurled Like Base balls But Dropped on Enemy
Soldier life in Company M, the University company, is not the life of a loafer. It is drill, drill, all day,—not just the old time 'marching drills, but present day trench warfare is practiced.
In the bayonet practice dummies made of sand and straw bags are used. The dummies are placed in a rack of sieves to allow groups as nearly as possible under short conditions. Bayonet practice is carried out just west of the Administration Building. The men get a taste of the horrors of war in this practice by getting into a short quick thrust to avoid bones as the bayonet can be removed easily.
The program followed out by Company M is similar to the one used in the training camps. The company is divided into four sections, each in charge of a sergeant. The day is divided into half hour periods, each spends different drills. Some of the drills begin in sandy areas are bayonet practice, hand grease throwing, physical drill with guns, and a semaphore drill.
ARE GETTING REAL DRILL
Company M probably is the best drilled company of guardsmen in the state, because Captain F. E. Jones was the only officer from Kansas to attend the Trench Warfare School at Washington this summer and the men are being drilled in real trench warfare.
**HOLLING 'HAND BOMBS**
In the grenade throwback, cast iron bombs are used. Real of real bombs are used. The bombs are thrown sixty, seventy-five, and ninety feet from one trench into another at an object four feet square. A bomb threer in the trenches must be able to hit the mark seven out of ten times. A bomb can not be thrown into a ball, but must be thrown high in the air, into the trench. Bomb throwing is practiced just west of Haworth Hall.
All members of the company are taught semaphore signaling. Every man in the company now is able to read signal messages. A time limit is used in target practice as saving time is a part of trench efficiency.
A half hour of physical drill by the whole company is taken before dinner and supper. Cross country running and jumping are practiced because physical ability is important in hand-to-hand trench fighting. The men are quartered in tents of ten or half to a tent. Only about half of the men collect and carry others sleep on bags filled with straw bought from the company fund. Students are welcome to watch the drilling at any time.
Because they are no longer in the Pan-Hellenic Council, the members of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority were able to pledge nine women last night. The pledges were announced this week after a series of pledge colors of Helen Cook last fall, the Kappas were dismissed from the Council. The Chi Omega sorority was the one that made the charges, saying that they had pledged $1 million and become a Kappa next week according to rules of the Pan-Hellenic Council.
Kappas Not In Council
Pledge Nine Freshmer
The pledges are, Nellie Gunn Great Bend; Aletha McGinnis, El Dorado; Mildred Payne, Hutchinson Moslin Hawbric, Wichita; Jessie Stilwell, Tulsa; Etta Pond both Campbell, Atchison; Etta Pan, Junction City; Eleanor Clark Kansas City, Mo.; Myra McLaughlin Paola.

Demand for High School Teachers Cannot be Me
An unprecedented demand for teachers has been made on the University this fall by the high schools of the state. This demand is due to the number of men teachers in military service. The demand is for men teachers, but women teachers are needed.
Teachers in high school subjects are wanted, but the demand is greatest in science and vocational subjects. University students or teachers teaching positions should see Prof. W. H. Johnson at Room 103 Fraser
Registration Falls Off Twenty Percent When Total Reaches 2,029
Late Enrollment May Bring Decrease to Twelve Per Cent, Savs Foster
The total number of students registered at the University of Kansas last night at the close of the official registration period was 2,029 or a decrease in the same time last fall. There were 80 students who registered yesterday.
Students will register at the Registrar's office in Fraser Hall from now on, and enrollment will be in which have not been announced so far.
The loss in students probably will be 15 per cent, which agrees with the estimate made by Registrar George O. Foster at the start of enrollment. He expects late enrolments to make the decrease amount to this much or even as low as 12 per cent. The total fall registration last year was 2,907 but that figure was not reached until almost the last of the term.
Robinson Gymnasium was almost deserted yesterday afternoon an hour before closing time. Everything is ready for work to start on the Hill today and the student book exchange reported a big rush for all sorts of books as soon as the texts for the task were given out by instructors. Yesterday many students turned in their old books to be sold.
This morning the usual number of late students finally arrived at their 8:30 o'clock classes. No work was being done in a majority of cases. To those classes usually full were only partially attended at the first session this morning.
Students were fitted settled after rush of first week parties and entertained.
All Kansas Schools Smaller
Aggies and Emporia Norma Even Harder Hit by War Than the University
The decrease in enrollment at the University of Kansas is small compared with that of other colleges in the state. Kansas State Agricultural College at Manhattan had enrolled only 1,500 at the end of the first week and was 750 less than the same time. The freshmen class is almost half of the total enrollment. Two-thirds of the students enrolled are women.
Miss Helen Rhoda Hoopes, well known to the University as one of its most efficient English teachers, has been asked for more than three weeks, recovering from an operation for appendicitis. She is expected to return to Lawrence some time today, but will need a hospital stay and a class work until about October first.
Washburn has 400 students enrolled. This is a decrease of 20%. Only nine men are enrolled in the senior class but the freshman enrollment is heavy. Fewer students are enrolled in the preparatory school. Many prep students are working on farms in places of enlisted men. Most of the pre-graduate every student enrolled is taking either French or Spanish. The only German in demand is that given in advanced courses.
Several smaller schools in Kansas have not opened this year, among them are Cooper and Campbell and Enterprise Normal Academy.
Kansas State Normal at Emporia reports a decrease of 261 students. Its total enrollment is 825. There is no decrease in the senior class or in number of elementary students. The ratio of women to men is six to one.

K.U. Economist Is On Board to Control Food Supply Given Neutrals
R. M. Woodbury Tells How Ships Suspected of Aiding Enemy are Held Up
But Can One Man Entertain Four?
Ships belonging to Holland merchants are still in New York harbor awaiting license to leave with exports from this country, according to word brought to Lawrence by R. M. Woodbury, assistant professor of economics at K. U., who returned from a visit to D. C. He was in the War Trade Statistics department at the capitol. This body was created about the middle of July,
The work of the board was to pass on the licenses granted to ships leaving this country for neutral ports, working on the information that part of the food being sent to Holland and the Scandinavian countries is not be used for the use of the Dutch alone it is being held up with no license.
"The department has the duty of finding out just how much food is needed for the home consumption of neutrals and how much of this should come from this nation," said Prof. Frost, a professor of military surplus is going to Germany or enemy countries, the export shipments are prevented from leaving until the condition is readjusted. In this way the work is to keep food in stock so that it has been the case lately through Holland, Denmark, and Sweden."
The plan of cutting down the number of exports also prevents neutral nations from replenishing their supply, which was exhausted by enemy nations.
Prof. J. O. Jones of the School of Engineering complains of an exceedingly busy summer. He spent the hottest days of the year mailing in an unshaded roof. He is just finishing a new home on Indian Street.
The members of Company M, th University military unit, are a Woodland Park this afternoon an are taking part in the Fair.

University Prof. May Run For State School Head
Prof. W, H. Johnson of the School of Education may be a candidate for the office of State Superintendent of Public Instruction if wishes of prominent educators and school men throughout the state are carried out.
Recent articles in the Topeka Capital and the Kansas Teacher have "boomed" him. He has a wide acquaintance among the teachers of the state, and many of them are urging that he consent to become a candidate.
Professor Johnson received his bachelor's degree from the University in 1885, and his master's degree from Johns Hopkins in 1892. He began his career as an educator by teaching two years in a rural school. Since that time he has served as high school principal, University high school interim head of the teachers' appointment bureau at university and professor of education both at the State Normal and the University.

We notice that Harold Tape of Michita has pledged Kappa Sigma. We hope he has red hair so that he can wear our state con all him Red Tape.
Some folks say Work is their middle name. But we commended to remark that the Gordon La Fayette Cram is one of the new French masters at the University. Our pity is extended to these classes if he is like his name.

Dr. Ida H. Hyde, health expert of the University, found bacteria on the rim of a glass taken from Fraser Hall.
Dr. Hryde also says the fountains contain bacteria from the lips of the students touching the rim while drinking.
Rain water might be used but the impurities of the air are gathered in the reservoirs.
Dr. Hyde further emphasizes the fact that every student should furnish his or her own cup and carry some around in his or her pocket. He is alive with germs 'from money we carry and matches and everything.
All of which puts us in the notion to go down to Potter's or to Robinson's swimming pool and soak up "enuf" that clean water to last us a week.
Or go to Kansas City.
"A shilling in London; a quarter here."
"Ask for the best."
You read these statements in Kansas before the cigarette bone-dry law went into effect. Now that no one is supposed to know what a cigarette is we are going to expose this certain cigarette above mentioned.
Willis Beltz, a freshman from Nickerson returned to this country in time to enroll in the University. He has been all over the broad Atlantic and in France and England. And he is authority for the statement that while she sell for "a quarter here" he never in his many days spent in London could find the cigarette that advertises "a shilling in London."
Paul Brindle, former society editor correspondent for the Kansas City Star and now on the Associated Press with offices in the Star building was hanging around his old haunts he just talking and wishing he were here again. The gray world has its hold on Paul and he won't be back in school any more.
Woman Kansan Editor Back
Zetha Hammer, the first woman to edit the Daily Kansan is back on the Hill this week for a few days of rush and to investigate the paper in the winter of 1914.
Miss Hammer is secretary of the Conservation and Emergency Association in Salt Lake City, Utah. She worked since April 1, Salt Lake City was one of first cities in the United States to adopt conservation measures after this country declared war. After leaving the University, Miss Hammer publicity work for the Republican state committee in Utah.
First Convocation Will Give Place to Soldiers' Mess Fund
Students Will Be Asked to Help K. U. Men in Company M Encamped Here
Have Not Been Paid Yet
Students Have Slept on Ground Because of Small Amount of Equipment
Students will be given an opportunity at the annual opening convalation at ten o'clock tomorrow morning in Robinson Gymnasium of contributing to the fund for Company M.
Small envelopes will be handed every student as he files into the gymnasium so that everyone may put any sum he cares to in the envelope and then write his name and the amount given on the outside. After convoitation there will be a booth, in charge of members of Company M<sub>j</sub> just outside of the main entrance at which to leave envelopes.
Every cent given into the fund will be spent for the many small necessities of army life for which the government does not provide and for medical supplies. Captain Frank Jones will have charge of it.'
Captain Jones said that if the students last year had not raised a small fund for the company all of the members would have had to sleep on the ground when they moved out of the gymnasium a week or so ago in order to not inconvenience the University in registering and enrolling them in school. The small company fund Captain Jones was able to purchase some prairie hay on which the soldier boys could sleep, instead of lying on the ground.
Sometimes the soldiers' pay checks do not arrive on time, but there are many things that the soldiers must have, and they must get along the best way they can, if there is no company fund to draw upon. A company fund is now virtually recognized as a necessity and a few of the Kansas towns have raised as much as $3,000 for their soldiers.
The minimum, set for Company M by the promoters of the campaign, is $1,000. It is believed that the University students, who will remain in school, will gladly raise this amount, tomorrow, as a token of loyalty to the student soldiers who will soon go to France.
Every student, who wishes to lessen the hardships of the soldier boys of the University while in the trenches, should make out a check for as large an amount as possible and have an account at convocation tomorrow morning. A check should be made out to Captain Frank Jones, Company M.
The Kansan will give a list of everyone who gives to the fund and the corresponding amounts.
Company M. Man Writes Popular Wartime Song
A popular war song has just been written by John L. Rogers, a member of Company M. He wrote both the words and music for the song, which has proven very popular with every man who has sung it is entitled, "I Love to Hear The Old Songs Once Again." Four thousand copies of the song have been printed and are being sold for ten cents each at the company canteen Robinson Gymnasium. The money will be added to the company fund.
Rogers is an excellent musician and can play any kind of an instrument. He is a member of the Company M quartet and is chairman of the music committee of the company which will keep the members of the company in good spirits when they go to Ft. Sill, Okla.
Offer of Larger Salary
Gets Another K. U. Man
The resignation of Frank B. Thayer, instructor in the department of journalism has been announced. Professor Thayer received an offer after the first of September from the University of Iowa which means an increase of 50 per cent in salary. The salary increase finally caused Mr. Thyer to decide in favor of the position at the Iowa school.
Professor Thayer left several days ago for his new work, accompanied by his wife, who formerly was Vera Hill, fa'18.
The University Women's Association invites the entire University an opening reception in Robbins Gymnasium Olympia on Monday, December 22. From eight to ten o'clock.

FOR YOU AND ME—TOMORROW
Every student on Mount Oread will want to attend the All-University Convocation in the Gym tomorrow morning at ten o'clock, when Chancellor Strong gives his first word of greeting to the student body. It will be the first big meeting of the K. U. family this year—and every member of that family will want to be there.
Chancellor Strong is to talk on "Problems, New and Old." A double quartet from the School of Fine Arts will sing. College songs and national airs will dig honorons on the program—and the "Crimson and the Blue" will be sung with the same fervor as "America." For most of the freshmen, it will be a first experience in giving a "Rock Chalk." Cheerleader Rusty Friend, who will lead it, will make his first bow to a K. U. audience.
The convocation will begin at ten o'clock, and last an hour. It will be an hour full of the best sort of entertainment—an hour that every loyal K. U. student can thoroughly enjoy.
You're going—of course!
FOR OUR SOLIDERS
Members of Company M will be in charge of a booth at the Gym Friday, where contributions to the Company Fund will be received from students attending the All-University convocation. Students are expected to contribute not because the men in the company are soldiers, but because they are our soldiers. Company M is the University company; it was organized on Mount Oread and recruited here; and the great majority of the men in it are University men. Very naturally then, University students are expected to help the former students now in active service for their country.
Last spring a small fund was raised for the company, a tag day and a benefit dance, but this fund has already been spent. More money is necessary if our soldiers are to have the little comforts that other companies—from towns much smaller than the University community—have.
Giving to this company fund is just one of the many things those of us who are not in military service can do. To say that it is our duty is superfluous.
It is our opportunity—and our privilege.
OUR FOOTBALL TEAM
OUR FOOTBALL TEAM
The crisp call of signals, the thudding punt of the pigskin, and the crush of lithe bodies, thrown together in the shock of football practice, are once again heard on Hamilton Field. Though crippled by war, the nucleus from which K. U.'s football team is to be recruited is a very promising one—and Kansas sport everywhere are glad to
see that the outlook for the season is much better than anyone had here-tofore anticipated.
The fact that few letter men have returned to school, and that some of those now appearing for practice may soon be called for military duty, makes it imperative that all football men—whether freshmen last year, second string men on former varsities, or inter-class players—come out to the practices.
Coach Olicett is doing his best to give us a team that will uphold the Kansas record in the Missouri Valley. He can do it if the men in this institution will help him. Unquestionably, we have among the men students here this year the material for a team that can be as good as those of recent years. More than that—the men who are able will come to the assistance of the coach, and Kansas will have a great team. It's because of the Kansas spirit—the spirit that never fails.
"THIS IS THE LIFE"
Nothing is more ridiculous than the clothing advertisements run in almost every magazine current at this season of the year, portraying the college student in a striped blazer, a mandolin on his arm, and a curved-stemmed pipe, either very bull-doggish or abnormally long, in his mouth, and a half dozen or more similarly equipped comrades lolling about the room in attitudes of ease. Usually they are singing. Pennants adorn the walls. And there is frequently not a book in sight.
Such pictures are a long ways from the truth—especially here at K. U., this year. There is very little of the traditional "rah-rah" college spirit, and what little there is stands in small favor. Students are here for business and hard work—and they have little time to fool away in idle pastimes.
Posters of college men nearly always show the light side—the impossible side—of college life. They depict impossible situations, and impossible fashion. Students do not come to Mount Oread for four years of gay and festive living—they come for work, and if they do not work, they cannot stay.
CAMPUS OPINION
WORKING ONE'S WAY THROUGH
In the eyes of people off the campus the man who "works his way through school" is a hard-grubbing individual who crawls into his apartment room after a day of toil and tries to work. This person is often enough to study the next day's lessons by the flickering candle-light.
But those of us who are better acquainted with the man, know that it is as often as not one who gets out of college life the most that it has to

THE WOLF'S CHOICE
C copyright Hart Schaffner & Marx
Sport Suits for all Men is the Call for Fall
THE nice thing about the styles known as "sport" styles is that they're suitable for business as well as recreation. They look well anywhere; and it's a good idea to carry into business the suggestion that your daily work is a pleasure and that you go at it in the same spirit and in the same clothes that you wear for golf or tennis.
The man or young man who can put on the sport spirit at the same time that he puts on a sport suit will do his business with greater joy, and naturally with greater success.
When a man enjoys his work, he usually does it well.
The characteristic feature of sport suits is the belt, in one form or another. The belt may go all 'round or it may be a partial belt.
In addition to this, the military idea comes into these sport suits; with the country at war, it is natural that this idea should be a feature in men's clothes. You will see it in the yokes, the patch pockets; the plaits; the erect, vigorous, military figure is the coming type.
Hart Schaffner & Marx sport suits are the favorites. We'll show them to you in all the new designs; glad to. The fabrics are all-wool; buy them for real economy as well as style; your satisfaction guaranteed.

Many Campus Changes During Summer Months
Many minor improvements have been made on the University buildings and grounds this summer. Walks from the car tracks to Fraser Hall, from the parking lot behind her widened two feet in order to take care of the crowds. John M. Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds, reports that the shrubs and trees planted last spring were kept alive during the winter months and that the late summer rains have them growing in fine condition now.
New indirect lighting fixtures were installed on the second floor of Spooner Library, and concrete floors were put in the rooms of the basement of Fraser Hall. A new water meter has been placed in the referral room, so an unusually large size and measures all the water used by the University, which is sometimes as high as two million gallons a month.
Split Your Tobacco Supply With Co. M
Company M is out of money but worse than that they are out of toilets.
The boys have received no wagas since they were called out August 5 and the tobacco supply gradually dropped. In a "drug" goes at a big premium.
The fact put the boys to thinking and the result was a happy thought. This morning or this afternoon as you go by the main bulletin board at school, you will find a tobacco box devised especially for the occasion and an appeal is made to

Old Players Appear For Football Tryout Many More Needed
Nielsen, Pringle and Ruble Out
In Gridiron Togs Yesterday Afternoon
Although old players from last fall year's football team are slow in coming out for early season practices several new faces made their appearance yesterday afternoon on Hamilton Field. Earl Shimn was out getting in shape for work at the end position in case he is able to remain at the University until he is invited into training for aviation work. Several other letter men from last year's successful team were at practice.
Tom Pringle at right half and Mirl Rubble at the other halfback position, with Nielsen at end was one combination which Coach Ocelt used. Casey also tried his hand at the backfield work along with Ziegler. Zielger was the first man to suffer injuries, the big end losing most of one tooth in the light scrimage. Woody and Humpty Wilson were down to watch practice and probably will be several other bill letter men, ex-freshmen and men with class-football experience were on the sideline-lines yesterday to see what their chances of making the team were.
KICKER NEEDED
Clarence Gorrill, who was a consistent man on the 1915 eleven, will be out this afternoon. He is a half and a fair punter. The team will need a good kicker this year and it looks as though Coach' Olcott will have to develop a man to fill Adrian Lindsey's shoes. It is a safe bet that no man will equal the record last season, can make the Misericorde Valley. Hull at other regular out yesterday. Jean Minor thus far has not appeared in Lawrence but he is expected back for the opening of the season.
While the regulars and letter men are holding off until the latter part of the week, last year's freshmen and new men to Varsity football are out working for places on the eleventh Jones, a freshman regular last year.
is at guard, with Idol next to him at tackle. Idol made quite a name for himself at right half last on the frosh sunday. Liggett at the otherq guard position is a man from the freshman bunch.
NEW MEN APPEAR
NEW MEM APPLAIN
Bunn, who played in the backfield for the first time, has been calling sigmals for the varsity so far this year. Shores, a sophomore to a new man to University football, appears to be built for the game but is a trifle rusty on his football knowledge. Wenzel at the full back position is a recruit from the freshman baseball team last spring. He is getting away good for early in the season play.
Jack Frost, the burly Varsity lineman, and Frank Mandeleve, a fast backfield man on the freshman squad last year, have not yet arrived. George Nettles, considered the most dependable player in the freshman line last year, has enrolled but has not met his football paraphernalia yet.
Mason Boys and Clinton Inglefield,
students last year on the Hill are
here for rush week at the Phi Gam
house. Boys will leave this week for
Leland Stanford University where he
will attend school and Inglefield will
next week for Chicago where he
will enter the University of Chicago.
This afternoon more of the old players are expected out for practice, and University students and Lawrence people will have a good chance to play in the studios of the course that will represent the Jayhawker school this fall.

Both teams also contain old K. U. football stars, as well as noted Indian players. The Headquarters Company will have both the captain last year and the captain-elect this year's Haskell Institute team. Williams, captain last year, will likely be replaced by a new company, while Clements, captain-elect will probably take one of the halfback positions.
Your Broken Glasses Replaced Today
The soldiers have been toughened up by hard practice for the past few weeks and the clash promises to be a battle royal between old football stars. The eleven of both soldier organizations are being slated for the future, and those who will be something doing when the soldier meets the soldier.

Well Water Is Not Safe,Warns Health Heads to Students
City Water Is Safe, But Ground Water Should Be Boiled, Before Drinking
Warning Is Most Emphatic
Health Service Starts Drive Or Unsanitary Cup—Urges Individual Cups
"Stay off the wells."
Such is the lahocic advice offered new and old students by C. C. Young, director of the state water laboratory in Snow Hall, and by Dr. John Sundwall, head of the University Health Service. This suggestion comes from knowledge born of exact and comprehensive laboratory tests of Lawrence well water and from the University's sad experience of last year, when three students died of typhoid fever and two others were traced. There were twenty-two cases of typhoid fever last year, all traced to water from one well.
City water is safe for drinking purposes, Mr. Young said. All other water should be boiled or distilled if it is to be drunk.
Doctor Sundwall particularly urges every student to determine the source of the water supply at his lodging or boarding place. If it is from wells, do not drink it unless it has been exposed to the extreme precaution, the medical authorities say. They declare there can be too much emphasis on students guarding against drinking water that has been polluted. The epidemic last year could have been caused by improper care, the students saved if proper heed had taken of the health service warning against drinking water from wells.
The health service and John M Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds, are making a drive this week on the common drinking cup that has appeared on the hill. Students will be invited with individual drinking cups. The common drinking cup will not be allowed on the hill.
Minor Ills Hit Students
University Hospital Resumes Work by Prescribing for Little Ailments
Students already are availing themselves of the free hospital service provided by the University Hospital, 1300 Louisiana Street, and quite a few students have called at the hospital for prescriptions or treatment for minor complaints. None has been ill enough to be sent to bed.
The staff of the hospital will be much the same as last year. Miss Mary Haight, superintendent, has returned from a vacation in Michigan. Miss Elizabeth Fleeson, technician, spent the summer in New York, where she was a bacteriologist for the New York state board of health. Miss Kate · Noble, visiting nurse, spent the summer in Glacier Park.
The University Hospital is open to students day or night, but there are special consultation hours which students must observe, except in extraordinary cases. The hospital advises consultation from 8 to 9 o'clock the morning. Additional consultation hours will be announced soon.
John J. Kistler, who was a sophomore in the College last year, now is a member of a company of infantry of the Kansas National Guard, stationed at Herington. Jack is a bugler with the rank of corporal.
Students who wish to make changes in their enrolment, and students who have not yet enrolled will have an opportunity to do so from nine until twelve o'clock tomorrow morning. The following chairmen of advisory committees will be in their offices to meet all students who wish to see them;

Old Glory Week At K. C.
Will Draw Many Students
Old Glory Week, the patriotic celebration to be given in Electric Park at Kansas City September 22 to 28 students will be attended by many students.
The opera "Aida" given in Convention hall, and a war pageant will be the principal attractions. Louise Isei plays her role of a young Clarence Whitehill and Morgan Kingston will sing the leading roles in the production. An orchestra of sixty pieces is being formed under the direction of Jack Riley, a Kansas City man.
The aim of the celebration is to create a fund from the proceeds for the allied charities. Practically every organization in America will have exhibits of its work there in connection with the British war exhibit. The Countess of Kingston will preside over the Irish booth.
What They Say
John Montgomery: The football men in school who have not yet reported for practice ought to come out at once. There are a lot of felows with all kinds of "stuff" who haven't yet reported, either before the game or after the fraternity rushing or because they are indifferent to the welfare of the team this year. There is a lot of good material on the Hill, and K. U. can produce a team as good as any in the Valley if the men will just compete in practice. The first name is only team works and it's time things were beginning to move at a rapid rate down on Hamilton Field.
Marie Buchanan: Sure I'm back.
Yes, Marcellus is a real army lieutenant now.
Captain Frank Jones: A company and is an absolute necessity for any business.
Manager W. O. Hamilton; Yes, I expect to be rather busy. I am the new acting head of the department of physical education, will be expected to personally conduct a couple of gym classes, will coach Varsity basketball and track, besides doing all the duties of manager of athletics. No, I do not know whether I will eat or not, as no arrangement has been made in my schedule for meals.
H. C. Hangen: Yesterday I wrote a delightful paragraph about John D. Murphy's hirsute adornment on his upper lip, but now it's gone. No. But深入 the paragraph is gone. But that all comes with being a journalist anyway.
Proof, Leon Flint: If I can find a room, we will meet six or eight stories further down. (He was speaking to the 8:30 Advertising I class meeting next to the roof of Fraser Hall.)
Everett Palmer: I was at Camp Funston near Fort Riley at $4.12 a day and $7.50 on Sunday. The work was heavy and steady. I had plenty of time for the few students least twelve University students there—most of them assistants to the carpenters. That was my job. The younger and unskilled men got work but they were helpers or aids and the young hands were the first in town. Jewell City was where I spent the greater part of the summer.

Late Registration Totals Show More Men Students Here Than Women
Total Now 2050, a Decrease
More Than 400 Less Than Las Year—War Hit Laws and
Engineers
Contriary to previous indications, the University of Kansas is. not to become a girl's seminary. Since the first returns came in showing the ratio in favor of women, the tide has swerved rapidly and the once thin curve has been thickened; we have swelled until the ratio stands four to three in favor of the men.
This reversal has been brought about by the sudden influx of working men at the last moment. Out of a total of 2,050 registered up to the close of business yesterday, 1,158 were men and only 892 were women.
Totals from the various schools of the University show that the School of Engineering and School of Law has been hit the hardest. The former has an enrollment of 303, five being women. The School of Law has only 80 students, including one woman. Only the College and the School of Fine Arts have compared their investments with other years. The total still lags 450 behind the figures for the corresponding time last fall.
The enrollment in the various schools follow:
Total Men Women
College 1,416 689 729
School of Ed. 170 21 149
School of Med. 32 30 2
College and Med. 63 58 5

According to Dean Olin Tempini, the department of German will lose approximately two-thirds of its students, while the present indications point to an increased demand for the study of French.
ENTERS GRANTED "MILITARY PASS"
Students who withdrew last spring to enter military service or return to the farm are finding upon their return to the University that they received no grade for the past semester, but that their work simply was marked "military pass."
In case that their work was not of passing merit at that time they will receive no credit at all. It has not been shown why it should be considered toward a degree.

We Are Very Sorry—
Many Did Not Sign Names
.
Sincerely,
That a few of the subscribers to the Daily Kansan have missed their paper during the last few evenings.
In the meantime, we hope that our subscribers will overlook an occasional error and remember that the KAN-SAN—like every human being—makes mistakes.
Money From Anonymous Signers Amounted to Nearly Half of Total
At present the company fund totals over $361. The known subscriptions amounted to $48.90, while the unknown subscribers gave $11.10. The baseball game Wednesday added $15 to the fund, while the dance a week or so ago netted an equal amount.
A total of $80 was added to the company fund of the University unit, Company M, by contributions this morning, after the opening conference, and the contributors did not write their names on the small envelopes.
The list of contributors this morning are:
Over Five Dollars: Prof. E. M.
Briggs.
Five Dollars: Prof. Raymond Schwegler, Hannah Oliver.
We regret mistakes on the part of the KANSAN, but with the avalanche of subscriptions that has been pouring in upon us during the last few days, it has necessarily caused some subscribers to miss their papers.
Beginning next week, our circulation will reach a normal level when we hope that there will be no further cause for complaint.

Plain Tales
We had the desire for a date last night. We went to our 'phone. We lifted the receiver and placed it against our car. We waited. Would still be waiting if we hadn't hung up. 'Cause central didn't pay us no mind.
They do say the city water is perfectly safe to drink. Public opinion long ago decided the water was perfectly rotten to wash in. All of which makes us glad that it is good for something.
Then we went up to one of the much-used phones in one of the Hill offices, but we were waiting there yet if we hadn't hung up. 'Cause central didn't us pay no mind.
We had to have that date so we walked to the phone office. We were able to get central cause she was right in the same building with us. We called a certain number. Where the lady lived.
Not many times do the journalists talk about themselves. But the whole bunch is crowing around these days, Even feel higher exalted than the Laws. 'Cause two of our ladies are carrying swagger sticks. Right on the Hill. Dorothy Cole and Alice Bowley are the innocents.
Phat 'phone was out of order.
He said naughty things under our breath.
Some folks travel a long ways to attend social functions and be the regular lion while they're at it. Lieu Chiem, in the province of Tamil Nadu was in the city last night till 2 bells this A. M. attending the Phi Kappa Psi dance.
Friend, our new cheer leader,
owns an electric. Also he is a Phil
Gam. Also he was rushing a few pro-
spective Fijis Wednesday. Rusty,
his electric and one or two of his
fledglings started down Massachusetts
street going north. Then they
stopped in front of the Union Pacific
downtown office for refreshment at
Allie's.
One embroiled Phi Gam started monkeying with things alive in the ar. The car started moving. It kept in moving, just like a Ford, up over he sidewalk and into a plate glass window of the U. P. office.
It may cost some Phi Gam $50 for the window and some more for the sign before the events of the month are over.
Someone said the same electric ran into a peanut roaster, too. We couldn't believe it.
Did you notice something wrong in the gym this morning while the Chancellor was talking or while the folks were 'singing or' while any-where else, if you did you'd be a true son of Uncle Sam. If not, read the flag manual.
Besides being persnickety about waste paper the soldiers can equal anything done by the Knights of the Round Table in the King and Queen period. This morning two rows of seats were reserved for the soldiers. Did they did? Did they their seats? They did not. The ladies the immediate vicinity took them—after the soldier boys did their chivalrous deed.
Government Control of Metal Sent Price Down
Because the flag was hung wrong.
Look it up.

Loyalty To Country Keynote of Address Made by Chancello
Kansas Has Nearly Seven Hu dred Faculty Men and Stu dents In Service
World Democracy Must W
Disloyal German Citize Should Be Sent Back to Native Country
"The University of Kansas is loyal institution, loyal to the count and to the flag," Chancellor Fran Strong said to the students in his dress at the first convocation the university had held in the versity, both student and faculty, expected to be loyal to the count and to the flag."
"The University is doing its part in the war. Eighteen members of the faculty and 650 former students are either enlisted in the army or are doing war work. Kansas men are found in the second training camp first Kansas regiment, the navy, aviation corps, signal corps, coa artillery, engineering corps, navy hospital corps, ordinance department, medical corps, M.C.A. and band. The large decrease in enrollment is to be expected and the proportion of women to men is as should be. Women must carry a work at home and men must fight in the war for democracy.
ALL MUST SHARE BURDEN
"The meaning of war is becoming known to Kansas students. Two alumni are fighting against War is the greatest disorganization known and this disorganization is being felt not alone by armies out every citizen in the warring nations Every person has a part in the world This situation is realized in ever European country now and must be held accountable to all whole people must bear the burden Wealth and labor must do their shar and the American people must demand this from Congress.
"The University has had war experience and knows a little of changed moral and intellectual problems it must consider. Now is a time when we can greater self-control, to take life more realistically, simply and to consider real things War will make a tremendous difference in everything. There must be no loosening of the moral or intellectual fiber in University life or naive problems of reconstruction after the war are to be me in the right way."
"The reason for the war was not that Germany sank American ships and destroyed American lives," Dr. Strong said. "America is at war because Germany attempted to block the progress of democracy. The South in the Civil War attempted to have it stopped, but the war was destroyed. Germany must also go down before the pressure of (Continued on page 4).
MAY HAVE MILITARY TRAINING The Chancellor emphasized the need of adopting all phases of University life to the changed conditions. Military training for every man in school will be one of the first steps. The war department has recommended it but is unable to furnish arms or to detail an officer for instruction.
Co-op Book Exchange Ask For More Tools to Sell
Though the demand for text books seems to be as great as last year, students are not bringing in their books to the K. U. student book exchange in Fraser Hall. Students who are doing major work keep their books either purposely or because they forget to sell them and the result is a great demand for last term's text books.
The trend of the students in their work in language courses is readily seen by the unprecedented demand for French books, grammars especially. There is a great scarcity of algebraes, trigonometries, zoology and geology texts. The managers of the language are forced to down 200 books on accounts of the frequent changing of accounts from term to term.
Women are supporting the book exchange better this year than the events places their own price on the book and encourage per cent for selling the texts.
Students of Company M are beginning to believe that K. U. students are not smokers after all. Several days ago they placed a tobacco box at the entrance to the campus and to dote they have received only a slick dime and several half-filled sacks of tobacco.

GRAFT
Last spring, during the strenuous campaign which preceded the election of the student council officials or this year, there was much talk about the elimination of graft from student activities. All student officers who had charge of any money collected while in the performance of their duties as officers were to be closely supervised by student council or faculty authority, and full accountings to as to their receipts and expenditures were to be made. This is what both sides in last spring's election promised. Now that the election is over, and a majority of the men chosen are back in school, the Kansas is interested in learning what plans will be made toward carrying out those election promises.
*Student graffeting at K. U. has become notorious during the last few years.* Students who have "made money" out of it or that enterprise—be it student dances, publications, or any other "graft" in which the promoter has a chance to pocket the proceeds—are envied and scorned; and many tales are told of how much some of them "cleaned up" through various dealings.
The bulk of such stories are largely untrue—exaggerated and enlarged upon from some slight foundation. As the Kansan sees it there is no question but that the promoter of any large University enterprise which requires a great deal of time and personal sacrifice deserves pay for his efforts. Most upperclassmen are willing to grant that. What they object to and the thing that started all the protests against graft last spring is the manner in which certain students have, in past years, supposedly "gobbled" fabulous profits from student enterprises.
It is to this gobbling of profits that the new student council will have to turn its attention. It should, if possible, provide some means against safeguarding the promoters of big student enterprises against personal loss, and of paying them a reasonable salary for their work. The balance then left—and if the stories told of past "grafts" are only half-true these profits would be large—could be turned over to the University authorities for use in some permanent improvement on the campus.
Last year, Walter Havelokst president-elect of the student council, announced that plans for the erection of a student commons were being considered and that it was possible that this year the money herefore taken by student "grafters" could be turned into a fund for the erection of a commons. Donations for the fund from alumni, and profits from student council dances, could be added to the "graft" money and within a few years the erector of a commons would become a possibility.
The student council will hold its
first meeting within the coming two weeks; and the Kansan hopes that it will take the first step toward keeping its election pledges.
For fear that there are some who we have not as yet met, and thus had a chance to impart this choice bit of information, we wish to say that we arrived Saturday, had a wonderful summer, feel fine, are anxious to graduate without being drafted, and are glad to be back again. These bromides are not copyrighted. Pass 'em on.
THEN QUIET WILL REIGN
The sororities in the Pan-Hellenic Association will send out their bids to freshmen Monday, and then the excitement which has been current in K. U. social circles for the last week will subside. Several hundred busy young women who for seven days have done little but attend teas and dances and "exclusives" while they were being enrolled and registered under the willing supervision of sorority women will receive the invitation that they have awaited more or less breathlessly all week.
Most of the rushees will be glad it is over—for aside from not liking the suspense of the thing they are anxious to get settled and to begin on their year's study. Then too, the strenuous rushing calendar has tired a lot of them—and they want that opportunity for rest which only comes after one has pledged. The sorcity members will be glad it's over, too, for they dislike the strain and the uncertainty even more than those who are being rushed.
Two more days—and then Monday the "bid wagon" will go forth with the invitations that are going to mean much to those who accept them, and who become members of sororities. Their companions for the next four years—their chums—their friends are to be determined in a large measure by the decisions they are now making.
May those decisions be wise ones!
Congratulations, Mr. Foster! For the first time in many, many years it isn't necessary to write an editorial condemning the registration system. The one devised for this year worked splendidly—and the folks who were saved hours of waiting thank you.
UNIVERSITY UNION IN EUROPE
UNIVERSITY UNION IN EUROPE
The announcement that Yale University had decided to establish a Yale Bureau in Paris, for the period of the war, to be a bureau for information, advice, and help for Yale students by the development of an American University Union in Europe. It will be supported by Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, Dartmouth, Johns Hopkins, Tulane, and other colleges and universities. It is to provide (1) at moderate cost a home with the privileges of a simple club for American college men and their friends passing through Paris or on furlough; (2) a headquarters for the various college bureaus already established or to be established in France; (3) aid to institutions, parents, or friends in securing information about colleges in all forms of work and service, reports of casualties, and (4) visits to the sick and wounded, giving advice, and serving as a means of communication with men in the field.
The American University Union is to be managed by a board of trustees of nine members, six of whom shall be elected by the institutions represented, and three appointed, one each, by the President of the University Club of New York City, the Chairman of the Red Cross War Council, and the Chairman of the Army and Navy Committee of the International Young Men's Christian Association.
The immediate charge of the Union will be in the hands of Professors Nettleton, of Yale, and Lansing, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the two officers already appointed to serve as heads of their respective bureaues in Paris. The success of the undertaking is, we believe, assured in advance.-The Outlook.

OTHER OPINIONS
"WELCOME BACK"
The time honred "Welcome Back" is not outworn. It is voiced with a new significance in this critical year, a year that is to abound in things not quite so calm and uneventful as in former years. We are glad to be able to return to the University, much to the University and much to the nation that you are back.
This war is making its heaviest draft upon the educated young men of the country. When the work of re-enlistment has been completed after the war, there will be an equally insistent demand for highly trained men to meet the new needs of peace. There will be such a need and such a desire that a trained man as has never existed before.
The significance of the above statement is especially forceful at this time, when men are hesitating whether to continue in the University or enter military service. The general advice has been to continue educational work already begun. The dramatic changes in the number, the officer's training camps have already taken many college men and others have dropped out to go to work. But it is time that the outgoing stream of college men is checked. Those who will finish school this year have been especially urged to continue their work and graduate. The military mill is grinding slowly and steadily. The students easily touched. There is ample time for college men to enter military service.
It is the general rule that when a man quits college, he seldom ever returns and for that reason, every man should feel obligated to continue his educative process as long as possible. Peace is coming some day and the student has obtained his education before entering the war will be doubly needed.
With more than the usual enthasis, then, do we welcome back those who have returned, despite adversity and risk to the nation. It is good to see familiar faces, with the realization that these, too, are doing their share.

University Women Have Organization To Control Affairs
Women's Student Government Association Makes Rules of Student Conduct
Date Rule Is Unchanged
Men Must Beat It At 11 o'Clock
—President May Suspend
Ruling
The Woman's Student Government Association of the University of Kansas is the one organization to which every woman of the University belongs. Registration in the University makes her a member. Eachmember financially also is expected to contribute twenty-five cents a year.
Last year this fund with additional money raised by the executive council was used to pay the annual $50 scholarship to adopt a French war orphan for a year and to pay a $50 subscription to the Red Cross Snowdrop Society, pay the expenses of dances and other social affairs given for women students. The association has received dues from 265 women this year.
The executive council of the Association is composed of the president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer, elected by the University women, and two representatives elected by each class. The freshman elections will be the first week in November. Kathleen Katherine President, Ethel Scott vice-president, Marion Joseph, secretary, and Julia Kennedy, treasurer.
HOUSE AND PARTY RULES
The following customs have been adopted by the women of the association.
The association, acting in its addition to make additions to the customs from time to time as it may see fit.
Section 1. Rooming houses for women should be closed not later than 10 o'clock every night in the week except Friday and Saturday nights, when they should close not later than 11 o'clock, or when entertainments of general interest are held.
Section 2. Student parties should be prepared for nights of heights, or nights preceding holidays.
Section 3. Social engagements should not be made for the evenings of school days, except for Friday or for evening preceding holidays.
The purpose of the association, according to the constitution shall be to foster among the women a feeling of mutual responsibility and a high regard for both liberty and order, to maintain high standards of living and scholarship, and to promise loyalty to the University.
The association has power to make all rules and regulations necessary to carry out the purposes for which it was organized; to regulate all matters pertaining to the conduct and welfare of women in school and student organizations and activities in which women students are concerned.
PRESIDENT MAY SUSPEND RULE
The "date rule" does not apply to out of town men but the hours of closing are the same. The president has the power to suspend the "date rule" for concerts and other enter-into events at the Hall or the later, or for other occasions for which she considers it necessary. On holidays the rule automatically is suspended.
The association has endeavored to
VARSITY DANCE F.A.U.Hall

organize all the women of the University for work through the district system. Each district usually contains fifty women and are under the supervision of a district chairman, who is appointed by the council at its first meeting. Formerly the district chairman was responsible for purposes but this year an effort will be made to start Red Cross work, Katherine Reding, announced.
By the Way一
Why?
An elderly woman, who was visiting on the Hill this week was heard to remark that women attending the University were much younger than when she attended. According to her account, this is not true—no doubt she was forming her conclusions from the extremely short skirts that have appeared this fall. No, K. U. is not a kindergarten, and certainly skirts will as the days shorten and the wintry days rush about Mont Oread.
With only three days more of rushing the sororites are busier than ever. The traditional bid wagon or more modern bid auto will leave the library next Monday at two o'clock and the next Saturday will he settle within a few hours.
Exclusives of Chi Omega, Alpha Chi Omega, Sigma Kappa, Kappa Kappa Gamma are scheduled for today; exclusives of Gama Phi Beta and Alpha Delta Pi will be given tomorrow. Other sorority affairs today were the cabaret at the Alpha Xi Delta house and the Gamma Phi Delta house. The sorority morrow the Chi Omegas, Alpha Xi Deltas and Sigma Kappa will entertain at breakfasts, and the Kappa Alpha Thetas at a picnic.
Three fraternity dances will be tonight; the Kappa Sigma house dance, the Phi Gamma Delta dance, the Kappa Alpha Dance at Ecke's.
An informal dance will be given at the Alemannia house tonight.
The annual reception of the University Women's Association for everybody in the University will be in Robinson Gymnasium tomorrow night from eight until ten o'clock. Chancellor and Mrs. Strong, Vice-chancellor and Mrs. Burdick and Prof. and Mrs. F. B. Dains will stand in the receiving line. Company M will also be guests.
An authorized Varsity dance will be given in F. A. U. Hall Saturday night.
All men in the University are into clubs, fraternity and sorority houses on our pure, rich and delicious ice creams and sherbets.

Football Prospects Brighten As New Men Come Out For Tean
But Coach Calls For Old Men In Hope of a Valley Championship
Jayhawker football hopes began to rise yesterday when the first scrimage of the 1917 season was put on at Hamilton Field with several veterans back in the line-up of twenty-two men. Each night sees more men coming out and if the old men were still out, they are showing a squad of thirty-three to forty men would soon be toiling toward a valley championship.
Cool weather yesterday put punch into the playing of the men, and the players followed the punts with real football enthusiasm. The only thing to mar the earnest work of the aftermath was to take his place when his nose was smashed in a hard tackle. He probably will be out for practice today.
Tom Pringle did some good work at left half and did most of the kicking. Fred Ziegler and Webb Wilson also tried their hands at booting the ball, but they failed. Shane Jackson field but did no punting, while Wilson played a defensive quarter.
Lonberg was another new face in the line, playing right end for the offensive team. Milward Idol played right endright end on the opposite eleven. John Bunn ran the other team with Nielsen as his full back. Stevenson Beauscheid, a junior, new to Varsity work, and Dietrich, a sophomore, were the other new man out. Miri was the first one of the half positions. His unexpected return further strengthens the squad. Foster Dennis, who was out for the team last fall, is again working for a position on the eleven.
Roy Russell, a junior whose broken arm kept him out of football last year, was out for work and played an end position. He was on the Baker university team two years ago. Loren Simon, a half from the freshman team of last year, is working out for a place in the backfield.
Earl Shimn filled his usual role as end and will continue to work for the Varsity team until called into training, in hopes that he will at least be able to play against illinois. It looks like they should have hardly hardest to fill this fall unless Edward Todd or "Steam" Foster return to school.
All-Star Soldier Teams Will Battle Tomorrow
K. U. students who are football hungry w will have a chance to witness a fast* gridiron clash on McCook at 3:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
The contest will be between the Headquarters company team and Company H aided by stars from other soldier teams stationed in attendance. Proceeds of the 25 cent admission will go to the company fund.
There are many K. U. men in both teams. The Headquarters company lineup includes Pete Reedy, K. U. letter man and the following former students: Gordon Saunders, Dave Mackenzie, Sam Saunders and Lupper were freshmen last year and were looked upon as likely Varsity material. With the headquarters team also are several noted Haskell Indian stars. Lefty Ferrell of last year's K. U. freshman was a Company H backfield man.
McCook field is in excellent condition for football.
Rough Engineers Become Popular With Women

Loyalty to Country Keynote of Address
"Disloyal Germans must be told where they belong. They should be sent through the allied lines to their own country where they can compare its system with a great and free native state." The German states thousands of loyal Germans to whom justice must be done. Their names are on the lists of the draft army and the national guard. Prejudice must be done away with so there are no divisions after the war to make reconstruction as it was after the Civil War.
SHOULD PUNISH DISLOYAL ONES
"In order that there be no isolation of racial groups there must be but one language recognized in America, Industrial democracy must come and be applied to cities and states must not exist. There can be no unity without fairness.
DEMOCRACY TO FINISH
"The end of the war must mean the triumph of democracy and internationalism but it is not for anyone to say when the end will come. The President has said that we must take the disadvantages as well as the benefits of war because it is necessary to uphold democracy and he will say when it is time for war to cease. This is time to curb irresponsible talking and leave the situation to the man who knows the most about it.
"The end of the war will mean not only an intellectual internationalism but an internationalism shot through with the spiritual teachings of the New Testament. The war already has cleaner mechan living. The spiritual awakening is coming slowly. In Europe now the men in the trenches place new emphasis on the future life to pay them for the horrors of the war. After it is over there will be fewer doubters of immortality."

Company M Ordered To Break Camp for "Parts Unknown"
Sunday Student-Soldiers Will Leave K. U. Campus For Mobilization Camp
Combine Two Kansas Units
First and Second National Guard Units Will Be One Company
Company M, the official K. U. unit of the Kansas guard, has received orders to leave Lawrence Sunday. Their destination is not known, but it is generally assumed that they will go to camp in Oklahoma, as was first mentioned by the men going east or to some other southern mobilization camp.
Along with these orders came thus combining the First and Second Kan sa Infantry regiments. Although this will strike some of the first regiments of the First and Second Kan in Company H, the Lawrence company, are disgusted with the arrangement, men in Company M are satisfied for their captain, F. E. Jones, outranks the captain of the Second Regiment company, H of the lieutenants of Company M. Lawrence outranks but there will be only five where the two units are combined.
In contrast to this the down-town company, which is one of the oldest organizations in the state, will be outranked in nearly every office and the men don't relish the idea of going with men they know nothing about. But the University company will be associating with a good unit, according to Captain Jones, when they are joined with the Salina unit for many of the men are college graduates and sargentals will be divided equally and there will be no out-ranking in the non-coms. The surplus of the non-compassioned officers will be transferred to other units.
Y W C. A. Meeting Tuesday
When Company M of the First Regiment is joined to the Second Regiment, there will be approximately 250 men and seven officers in the new Company M. Most of the men feel satisfied for the plan was to enlarge the company and not do away with it, or to fill it with drafted men. This would mean the addition of more than 100 drafted men to the University company, for there are only 129 men in the unit.
May Entertain Soldiers
"Our Beginning" will be the subject of the first W. Y. W. C. A. meeting, Tuesday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock at Myers Hall. Each member of the W. W. C. A. cabinet will make a short talk on her part of the Association work. Miss Esther, will of the department, speak English. She will speak the introduction of the cabinet members. There will be special music. Every woman in the University is urged to attend this "get-acquainted" meeting.
Thomas Crawford, c.19, of Topeka, may soon be in France doing Y. M. C. A. work under the direction of the United States army. He has applied for work as a pianist with platform entertainers which are greatly in demand in Europe. He is from the New York City Y. M. C. A. which has charge of the work. He will leave the University at once if called.
Crawford will be commissioned second lieutenant if he obtains this work, as the entertainment course is in charge of the army. He is a memoirist. Mr. Fronteraly was a student in the department of journalism last year.
Mr. Crawford has just returned from a fifteen weeks' engagement with the Redpath-Horner Bureau on a tour which took him over eight status.

Students Speak Well Of
Sousa's 200-Piece Band
When the Second Kansas Ambulance Company entrains at Kansas City Monday or Tuesday for "somewhere in U. S. A." the University will be represented by seventen men.
The few students who spent Saturday and yesterday in Kansas City returned with praising accounts of the monstrous Great Lakes Naval band of two hundred pieces led by Philip Joseph Schiller. The band played at Electric Park. A band of the size of our university band seems large, but one three times as large baffles the imagination until a person hears it for himself. The men have been so well trained that they play together with the band's members; this size was necessary at the Great Lakes, because of the thousands of Naval rockies drilling on the parade ground at one time. Sousa spent several months this summer putting the band together and training it and popularity has been greatly increased by the success of the undertaking.
The band parades down town each morning and gives two concerts each day from 2:30 to 4:30 in the afternoon and from 9:30 to 10:30 at night closing with the concert on Friday night. Some of the students are taking advantage of the opportunity of hearing the greatest band in the world, even though class work is just starting.

Credit Given This Fall In Aeronautic Courses To All Kansas Students
Twenty-four Now Enrolled In New War Course; Women
May Join
A Mysterious Stranger from war times appears this week in the Kansas curriculum in the form of a 5-hour course in the elements of aviation. And to make the newcomer welcome and immediately useful, the School of Engineering will allow five credits for all students in the University.
The course in flying will be divided into three sections. The classes will meet at 11:30 each day. Monday and Wednesday there will be lectures, recitations, and demonstrations on the internal combustion engine and types of engines used in airplanes. This work will be given by A. H. Slus, associate professor of mechanical engineering.
Tuesday and Thursday the class will take work under Solomon LeFschetz, assistant professor of mathematics, on the mechanics of flight. Fridays the work will be on elements of mechanics, by T. T. Smith, assistant professor of physics. These two sections will go into the principles of hydrodynamics to help certain contours, the characteristics of monoplanes, biplanes and triplanes, and scientific elements involved in airplane construction.
The purpose of the course is to prepare men to be army aviators and to prepare men and women for work in manufacturing airplanes. The class will correspond partially with the university's ground" given the student in the army aviation schools. It also is hoped the course will be the fore-runner of a complete course in airplane engineering in the near future. The government has promised to consider the UniversityPublishing future aviation schools.
About two dozen men have enrolled in the course in aeronautics. The most of these men expect eventually to enroll in the aviation branch of the United States Army, said Professor J. C. Dennis, who is especially attractive to men in the College and about two-thirds of the men enrolled are from that school.
Preparations Point To Big Year For Glee Club
Jayhawk murmurs and whispers about the campus indicate an early organization of the Men's Glee Club. Dean Harold Butler, of the School of Fine Arts, will give the club all the assistance necessary to a successful year. We will send this week for all members of the Glee Club and those interested in becoming members. At this time a definite organization will be made and the plans formulated for the coming year. A manager must be elected and a director must be appointed. You will assist in the placing of a director and the general organization.
A slight misunderstanding sprang up last year when Dean Butler secured the Senate's permission for a trip during the school term. However, at the time, he promised that the club would have successful program could be arranged. When the time approached he saw that it would be an impossibility to make the showing that Kansas would be proud of due to the lack of men, interest and practice. A change of plan was necessary. The mid-season and this helped spoil the arrangements. Consequently the trip was called off.
A campaign to raise enough money to place a bronze tablet in honor of Lieut. William Fitzsimons in one of the buildings has brought enthusiastic response from faculty men.
"I hope that the student body will "realize what a great sacrifice Liient. Fitzsimmons made that it will be possible by student subscription alone to erect a memorial in his honor," said Dean Olin Templin.

former Journalism Students Visit
Two former students in the department of journalism, Raymond A. Fagan, and Ralph Ellis c'16, have come back to the Hill for a short visit. Mr. Fagan has been working at the city editor and expects to enter an advertising agency soon. Mr. Ellis is now city hall reporter on the Lansing, Mich. State Journal.
Lieut. Fitzsimmons was the first United States officer to be killed in France while defending the flag. He was a graduate of the University of Kansas, receiving his A. B. degree in 1910 and his M. D. in 1912.
Farewell Benefit Dance For Student Soldiers Given On Hill Friday
They're going to dance next Friday night in Robinson Gymnasium for the benefit of Company M. It will be the first All-University dance and the last one for the soldiers who are being to be called any time to service.
Authorities Have Given Sanc tion to All-University Party to Say Goodby to Co. M
Crawford's Jazz Jazzers will furnish the music. This orchestra is a combination of some of the best dance music men on the Hill. Tommy Crawford is at the piano, Bruce Fleming handles the drums and cowphone and Shanty Newhouse will tickle the stomach of the banjo and syncopated satirical movements. That makes the music certain.
Price: Seventy-five cents which is guaranteed neither to break nor to make anyone. Members of Company M will have tickets on sale this week. And, of course, the tickets will be sold at the door. If you don't care to dance and still want to watch, the balcony will be open at twenty-five cents. You can buy those tickets, too, from the soldiers of Co. M. The seventy-five cents will admit one couch to the floor.
The Benefit-Farewell All-University dance is what the managers of the dance are calling it. Official sanction of the dance has been given by Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, and all student organizations are behind it to make it a great success.
The dance is to be a finished product of what has been wagged on all sides and in every town this summer in the way of pavement-benefit dances for the soldiers of the town. The gym will be decorated with red, white and blue bunting and the programs are neat.
Wireless Man Passes Up Thrills To Go To K. U.
It is a far cry from the trouble-hunted playground of the Kaiser's tin tizzards to the peaceful slopes of old Oread; it is a long call from the thrills of the wireless room of a transatlantic liner to the dull security of Marvin Hall; yet such is the recent transition of Willis H. Beltz, late Marcino operator on the Panama-Pacific liner "Kroonland," now a freshman in the School of Engineering at K. U.
Young Beltz, who is only nineteen, became possessed with the wireless "bug" while attending the Reno county high school a few years ago. With the aid of a classmate or two he erected a wireless station and soon learned how to communicate to the elements of the game. Beltz, in fact, became so obsessed with the idea of becoming a Marconi operator that he arranged to take a special course in operating at Valparaiso University immediately after leaving school. He left Valparaiso early in 1916, a full-time licensed and licensed S.C. on a wrist on the "City of Erie," then playing on the Great Lakes.
From the "City of Eric" he went to the "Dawnellite" and from that to the "Octarina," but he never was off the job. He was back when he on board the coastwise service.
Late however, was soon to begin in earnest for this youthful operator. Just at the time conditions between Germany and the United States approached the breaking-point, he was ordered to the "Philadelphia," then about to leave on a transatlantic voyage to English waters:
The trip across was without incident, but the return voyage was no more than started when the message was flashed over the world that the United States was imperative, as the "Philadelphia" was then in the danger zone. Accordingly a stop was made at night and the old ship received a coat of disguising paint before the dash for mid-ocean was resumed. After the ship passed through the danger zone after the declaration of war.
The submarine menace, in the estimation of Belitz, is not growing in spite of the most favorable weather and conditions for operation. Likewise, he has nothing but praise for the American destroyers under Admiral Sims and he says that it is the American who is always called upon in a pinch instead of the "lime-julce" as the British seaman is called.
Miss Hoopes' Condition Improved Miss Helen Rhoda Haops who has been seriously ill in Kansas City is now at her home in Lawrence. Miss Edna Osborn is taking her classes in her absence. Her condition is rapidly improving and she expects to meet her classes in a few weeks.
Fighting "Pi" Wants To Lick the Kaiser
Poor "Pi," famous Pi Upsilon dog, is to be put in solitary confinement today and all because he confines want to be patriotic.
For the past week "PI Upsilon" has spent but a few hours at his usual haunt on Fourteenth Street, finding either more desirable companionship or better grab with the Company M. boys. Pi has long been noted for his fighting ability and it is not unusual that he should want to go into the army, but the Pi Upsilon fellows think he is too young to decide for himself and are going to tie him up until after the local soldiers go south.
Plain Tales
No, Josie, Helen Forbes lover hasn't gone to war. She cries for another reason. It's hay fever.
They do say the girls take you right up provided you give them your pin and swear to be faithful.
The latest way to propose to become have seen those good looking posters the enlisting officers have placed at all offices. The answer, as uncle Samm says: "I want you."
Of course you read in the Sour Owl that freestay on the idealism of a freshman. We quote him: "What a pleasure it will be to associate with nothing but brilliant and brain people, all of whom are anxious to help a fellow and show him a better way to do it.
Well, he pledged Beta Theta Pi last week.
John M. Shea, superintendent of our buildings and grounds has been a mighty busy man this summer and is still busy. Every day you can see Mr Shea one minute in and around Murray Elementary, where he sits at the library bossing the painters; next he goes back to Haworth to see about a broken window; finally he is seeing what's what in the Museum and then maybe to finish up the fifteen feet of sand that he excavates and answers mail and phone calls.
Nothing to do but work.
Gullibillity, you're it.

Last of Rush Entertainments
After a strenuous week the rushing season closed Saturday with breakfasts at the Chi Omega and Alpha Xi Delta houses, a breakfast dance at the Sigma Kappa house; eclipse dance at the Phi Kappa house; dance, afternoon, exclusive of Alpha Delta Pi, and the Kappa Alpha Theta picnic.
The Mu Phi Epsilon sorority entertained with a reception at their chapter house Thursday from 7 until 10, for the new students entering the fine arts school and the faculty. An informal program was given, consisting of a solo by Mrs. Herman Olcott; solo, Prof. Downing and harp solo by Miss Dorthy Bell. The punch bowl was presided over by Miss Edna Roberts and Miss Gladys Nelson.
Mixer for Freshman Women
The women of the Freshman class entertained at an informal mix in the rooms of Mrs. Eustace Brown Friday afternoon from three until five o'clock. The time was spent informally, many college songs were learned. Miss Jones, of the German department, poured tea.

Council Will Elect TenNew Members To Fill Vacancies
Walter Havekorst, Calls Mass Meetings of Schools, to Choose Candidates
Freshman Caps In Vogue
Committee Appointed to Confer With Authorities On Student Graft
Presidents of the various schools are asked to call mass meetings of their respective schools Tuesday or Wednesday of this week to fill vacancies in the Men's Student Council. Ten representatives will be chosen from the College, two from the School of Engineering, four from the School of Law, and two from the School of Pharmacy. Candidates must nominate five candidates for thirty-five signers before 6 o'clock Wednesday night as the new members will be chosen at the meeting that night.
Walter Havekorst,
President
The Men's Student Council has issued a call for a special election in all the schools, except the School of Medicine, to fill the places left vacant by members of the council not returning to school.
The president or presiding officer of each school is asked to call a mass meeting of his school either Tuesday or Wednesday of this week to elect men to fill the vacancies. Two men will be selected for each vacancy and the council will choose one of the two. NINE VACANCES TO EUL.
VACANCES TO PULL
The by-laws of the Men's Student Council provide that vacancies shall be filled by the council itself, but due to the need of members of the council did not return to school a special election has been called. Each school will choose twice as many men as there are vacancies in that school and the council will select its members from these men.
There are five vacancies from the College, two from the School of Law, one from the School of Pharmacy, and one from the School of Engineering. Each candidate must file a petition with twenty-five signers with the council before the time set for the election by the school president.
FRESHMEN MUST WEAR CAPS
At the meeting Saturday morning the council decided that freshman caps should be worn this year as usual and that the ruling of the University Senate against paddling will not stop the freshman cap tradition. The date to commence wearing them will be announced later.
A committee composed of Walter Hawekorset, Rudolph Uhrlaub and Walter Raymond was appointed to confer with Chancellor Frank Strong and Registrar George O. Foster to formulate a plan for imitation of graft in student activities.
The Chancellor and Registrar were given power by the Board of Administration to make rules doing away with excessive profit in student affairs. The work of this committee will be made public before the class elections, which will be held Friday, October 5.
TO BOOST GOLF COURSE
Herbert Mee and Rudolph Uhrlaub were appointed as a committee to perform plans to establish a University golf course. There has been much agitation among students and members of the faculty the last two years to return to school because of a movement has no head. According to the by-laws, Rudolph Uhrlaub was advanced from secretary and treasurer to vice president because of the vacancy left by Dorman O'Leary not returning to school. Herbert Mee was appointed to the committee. The ten members not returning to school all are in military service.
Members of the council in school are Walter Havekorst, president; Rudolph Uhrlaub, vice-president; Herbert Mee, secretary and treasurer; Joe Pratt and Walter Raymond from the School of Engineering, from the School of Engineering, and Merle Ruble from the School of Medicine.
Lucilla Groberty, who has been visiting at the Kappa Kappa Gamma house, since Wednesday, returned yes, as soon as vacation, where she is teaching this year.
Blanche Mullen, of Hutchinson, spent Saturday and Sunday at the Kappa Kappa Gamma house.

ITS AN INSULT
Ask any of the 2,600 K. U. Folks what they most object to on Mount Oread this year and the answer will be: "The telephone service."
Speaking plainly, if not grammatically, the telephone service isn't service. It's an insult.
You try to call a number. The central is slow in responding. Eventually, after you have clicked the hook two minutes or so, she snaps:
"Number!"
Very often it isn't a courteous tone. It isn't even inquisitive. It's just short, snappy, and altogether too plain a statement of her evident feeling: "Speak up now or get off the line. I'm busy."
But the service central gives isn't the worst of it.
After you inform central of the number you want it seems to take an interminable length of time before you get a response. Very-often there is a lot of unnecessary buzzing in the receiver. And eight times out of ten — whether by accident or design—the line is busy.
The repair department and the trouble department are just as slow One phone on the Hill has been out of commission eighteen days, and in spite of many pleas to fix it the company apparently has not been able to send men to correct the defect. The thing has become so annoying to the subscribers who have to go elsewhere to phone that they can't speak sensibly about it.
We know the telephone company is busy. We understand that the two phone systems in operation heretofore are now being merged, and that the task is a big one.
But even such an excuse as that is not sufficient for the rotten service the company is giving its subscribers.
AFTER THE GRAFTER
They're hot on his trail, and it's time for the grafters to be taking to the tall uncut.
Saturday morning the student council met at the call of its president, Waiter Havekorat, and a committee was appointed to undertake the task of eliminating graft from student activities. This committee will confer with Chancellor Strong and Registrar Foster, and it expects shortly to announce plans that will be the death knell of the political grafter on Mount Oread.
The council is to be commended for the move it has made. Graft at K. U. has become so notorious in the last few years that the institution can no longer tolerate conditions here. The reputation of the University will suffer if it does.
The grafter will have to go. The days when a man can make half a year's expenses by managing a junior prom must end. It's up to the student council and the University authorities to do the job.
The keynote of Havekorat's plan, we are told, rests on a system of voucher checks which are to be used in making all expenditures for University activities. Not only are these checks to be signed by the student manager; but they are to be carefully considered and then counter-signed by an overseer connected in some official way with the University. Thus will the net be tightened about the grafting manager who is tempted to pad his expense account.
The method of handling receipts will be simple. All tickets will be sold directly from the business office of the University. This will give the exact figures on the receipts from every event.
Such, in outline, are the general plans will have been formulated. They will need revision and perfection—but they are at least a start along the right line.
The Kansan is squarely behind the student council in its fight for cleaner conditions.
After all, there are some joys in being a freshman, and probably many a senior envies the yearling his free meals during the rushing season.
SUBSCRIBE NOW
The Kansan is the official newspaper of the University of Kansas. In its columns appear daily the happenings and official announcements of the University. Its publication is under the direction of the department of journalism, and the work is done by the students as a part of their college work.
Students and faculty will find that reading the Kansan is the easiest way to keep in touch with University affairs. No better example of this can be shown than the list of fraternity pledges printed in Wednesday's issue. Nearly every person in school was interested in this story; and it is safe to say that it was the most widely read and widely discussed thing in the paper.
To be sure that none of the official announcements of the University are missed and to know what is doing on the campus, every student and faculty member should subscribe for the Kansan at once. The editions that are to follow will improve as the Kansan Board settles down to its work; and subscribers are assured of a newspaper even better than at any time in the past.
The subscription price of $3 a year is small in comparison with the benefits derived. Carrier will deliver the paper at your door every evening ing before dinner. Subscribe now and be assured that no happening of the campus is to get by you for the next nine months.

"I've come over," answered Pat
"to try if I can make an honest living."
"Faith, Pat!" exclaimed Mike
"what are you doing over here?"

UNCROWDED INDUSTRY
One sure way of stirring up a fight these days is to start a peace demonstration—Sioux City Tribune.
The captain and the mate on board the Pretty Polly were at loggerheads. They scrowled whenever they met, and seized opportunities of scoring off each other with fearful glee. Each took a turn at making the day's entries in the log-book, and the mate when making his entries, was very surprised to find, in the captain's handwriting, the words:
"June 2nd, 1917—Mate drunk."
He stared at it wrathfully a moment, then a slow grin broke out; his eyes were tilted.

In war, as in peace he is eager, ready, unafraid, and his quick response to his country's call must win him friends by the thousands even before they came to town. Their times were suspicious of his conduct, distrustful of his purpose and all too prone to question the value of his work in society. In the fierce crucible of war he has been tested and not wanting—Creighton Courier.
OTHER OPINIONS
He has not sought the easy bypaths which might have been opened for him, but has insisted on plunging in where danger lurked in its most hideous form. The aviation corps has appealed particularly to him because of the chance it gave for individual prowess and service, and he has clamored for a chance to "do his bit" with the aircraft. He had trained the tillerry, the cavalry, and in fact wherever there were tasks worth while to be accomplished for God and country.
THE COLLEGE MAN
In many quarters the college man has been deemed fit subject for jest and the cartoonist has found a never ending source of inspiration for his pencil in the clothes, the attitudes, the habits and the goings on generally of this favored son of fortune. His idiosyncrasies have been emphasized, and there is essential fitness for tasks worth while and there have been times and places a-plenty when his most urgent need seemed to be for an apologist.
Now, fortunately, all this is changed, and in the stress of war's demands, the college man has thrown off what his friends knew all along to go into the battleships' moments of boisterous young manhood—and from all over the land he has responded to his country's call with an alacrity, an enthusiasm and a patriotism which make him stand forth as a leader, a man trained to do and dare.
If we were to attempt to rank the literary product of the war so far, we should be inclined to say that the highest point of expression has been reached, not in books, but in such phrases as the English have coined during the long period of preparation. Do you think it through? or the French in their great resistance: "We'll get them." "They shall not pass." In such mere fragments are summed up the will and the vision of a whole people. Next would come a handful of verses and single lines by the men who have given themselves and have found a moment between training camp and shell crater to utter the spirit that moved them. Exactly how this happens that express the travail of soul in the attempt at adjustment to awful and unparallel conditions. And last, the mass of direct reporting from the battle field, often vivid and stirring, though of necessity without the perspective of great literature. But it is a mistake to look
LITERATURE AND THE WAR
One often hears expressions of disappointment over the quality of the literature produced by the war. People seem to expect an artistic expression in proportion to the colossal scale of the conflict itself, and they reproach men of letters for not having risen to the greatness of the occasion. In rebuttal it is argued that the writers are otherwise engaged; they are in the trenches, or in muni-tactical action during publicity bureaucracy. Or it is pointed out that the result in such诗 as that of Brooke, of Mascheld, of Seeger is after all, very considerable; that such fiction as "Mr. Britling" would be notable in any period.
I will work hard, hope high, and live up to the best that is in me! then I can write at the end, "Well done." But the above and live up to it. —Ex.
or great literature in the midst of great crises. Poetry, said Wordsworth, is "emotion recollected in tranquility," and he himself succeeded, not with "Verses written on the landscape" but with "the storm," but in "Lines Composed a Few Miles Above Tintern Abbey on Revisiting the Banks of the Wye"—after five years. We have the emotion now, enough, and to spare; the memory of that storm will they come at all—when the world has regained tranquility—Collier's.

Thayer Art Relics Valued At $10,000 At University Now
Kansas City Woman Has Loan ed Immence Collection to K. U. Conditionally
To Provide Suitable Place
Kansas Has Three Years In Which to Make Room For Treasure
The William B. Thayer Memorial Art Collection was moved to the University during the summer and soon became a landmark in the floor of the Administration Building.
A COLLECTION OF YEARS
Mrs. Thayer has been making the collection for years. She gathered the collection in order that she might pass it on for the upbuilding of art in the Middle West. It has been housed in her home in Kansas City. Several years ago she offered it to the Art Institute of Kansas City, but that institution was unable to take it. Then several of the state universities of the Middle West tried to get the collection.
The collection consisting of more than five thousand pieces of art was given to the University by Mrs. Sally C. Thayer of Kansas City in memory of her husband, the late William B. Thayer. The value of the art collection is conservatively estimated at $150,000 and it is the most valuable gift ever made to the University.
MUST PROVIDE SUITABLE HOUSING
Last January, Mrs. Thayer offered to lend the collection to the University for four years. However, the University already was cramped for class rooms and there was no room for the rare works of art.
At the commencement exercises last spring, Chancellor Frank Strong announced Mrs. Thayer had decided to join the University with the collection. In the deed of gift Mrs. Thayer stipulated that the University must provide a suitable place to house and exhibit the collection within three years. The collection is to be known as the William B. Thayer Memorial and no object may be taken from the collection.
There are fifteen Japanese and Chinese water colors and a $15,000 collection of 1,800 Japanese prints. This collection includes the famous prints formerly owned by Frank Chicago Wright, well known Chicago architect.
I'll keep it simple.
Wait, the image shows a series of dots or dashes.
The first one is at the bottom left corner.
The second one is next to the third.
The third one is above the fourth.
The fourth one is below the fifth.
The fifth one is above the sixth.
The sixth one is below the seventh.
Let's count them:
1. bottom left corner
2. next to the third
3. above the fourth
4. below the第五
5. above the第六
6. below the第七
So the sequence is:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
Wait, the dots are not all squares.
They are more irregular shapes.
The first dot is a square with a line inside.
The second dot is a rectangle with lines inside.
The third dot is a square with a line inside.
The fourth dot is a rectangle with lines inside.
The fifth dot is a square with a line inside.
The sixth dot is a rectangle with lines inside.
The seventh dot is a square with a line inside.
Okay, I'm ready to output the sequence.
One more check on the text.
"the first dot is a square with a line inside"
"the second dot is a rectangle with lines inside"
"the third dot is a square with a line inside"
"the fourth dot is a rectangle with lines inside"
"the fifth dot is a square with a line inside"
"the sixth dot is a rectangle with lines inside"
"the seventh dot is a square with a line inside"
Yes, that's correct.
Final output:
1. bottom left corner
2. next to the third
3. above the fourth
4. below the第五
5. above the第六
6. below the第七
Actually, the order might be slightly different if I were to output it.
Maybe it's the order I should output.
The dots are in a vertical column from top to bottom.
The first dot is at the top.
The second dot is next to the third.
The third dot is above the fourth.
The fourth dot is below the第五.
The fifth dot is above the第六.
The sixth dot is below the第七.
Let's re-examine the dots.
Top: square with a line inside
Middle: rectangle with lines inside
Bottom: square with a line inside
Yes, that's correct.
Final output:
1. bottom left corner
2. next to the third
3. above the fourth
4. below the第五
5. above the第六
6. below the第七
Two freight cars were required to bring the collection to Lawrence, not including the most valuable pieces, which were sent by express. There are twenty-eight oil paintings by modern masters in the collection. These pictures include canvases by Innes, Winslow Homer, Robert Henri, Gardner Symonds, Sororita Basteda, Joseph Israel, Elmer Brown, John La Farge, Richard Miller, Theodore Robinson, Homer Martin, Mesdag, Bashum and others. For several of these paintings Mrs. Thayer has been offered $10,000 and $12,000 each.
MANY RARE TEXTILE
Mrs. Thayer's gift also include more than a thousand works of artistic textiles. Among them are Coptic weaves made in Egypt 3,000 years before Christ. One of the Oriental textiles is a twenty-five rare old American Counterpanes and a collection of Indian blankets of American Indians from Alaska to Peru. One of them is a chief's blanket valued at $900. The textiles are illustrative of the art, religion, and customs of many central Asian peoples. A Group of Paisley and Persian shawls are among them.
The collection of lamps includes Roman lamps, brass, iron, and silver candlesticks. There are two Chinese stone lanterns weighing a ton each and standing seven feet tall. Five stone Buddas and two lacquer shrines are in the lot. There also are collections of artworks such as crystal crystals, pewter, brass, silver, Japanese and Chinese ivory and other carvings, bronzes, silver vessels and several types of period furniture.
SIX HUNDRED BOOKS ON ART
SIX HUNDREDS BOOKS ON AR.
There are between 1,500 and 2,000 pieces of ceramics and glass, comprising good examples of almost every type of cermic art. A Chinese river bowl is valued at 800 and a thirteen-sandstone bowl, about eight inches in diameter, at $1,500. There are 600 books on art that are of special value to the University. Many could not be replaced and the entire collection is regarded as priceless in educational value.
According to Prof. W. A. Griffith, head of the department of painting and drawing, Mrs. Thayer's gift is of inestimable educational value to Kansas. The books are for reference only by University students, but the remainder of the collection must be put on exhibition free to the public.
Cherokee, Okla., Athletes In K, U. This Semester
Oklahoma again has sent two of her best-known athletes to the University. Entering the University for the first time this year, are Everett and Orval Bradley, known throughout Oklahoma, Kansas, and Missouri for their track records during their school course at Cherokee Oklahoma.
The first named of the two brothers won the individual track honors at the invitation high school track meet here last year, and has enough medals and loving cups to start their season. They were entered from Cherokee but they were able to take second place in the meet here for their school.
Work of Big Sisters In Aiding New Students Successful Enterprise
System Here Compares Favorably With Big Eastern
The Big Sister work of the University which aims to help freshman women in becoming acclimated to University life is so efficient organized that it equals similar systems in Wellesley, Smith, and other centers at Oxford to Mist Kathleen Duffield, secretary of the University Y. W. C. A.
The work is better organized than ever before in K. U. and accordingly has better results. "No freshmen have been lost this year," said Agnes Hertzler, chairman of the committee. "Ordinarily some of them get lost in the strange town and have to be hunted up. The Big Sisters have prevented this by meeting all new girls at the train."
"The new girls have been well taken care of here this week," said Muff Duffield. "The Big Sisters met them at the train, secured rooms for them and helped them enroll. The work is thoroughly audited and it compared favorably with that in Wellsley, Holyoke, or Smith."
The Big Sister work is in charge of the Y. W. C. A., and it has an excellent organization. The chairman is the commanding officer. Under her are ten captains, of whom is responsible for ten or more Big Sisters. Each Big Sister has one or more Little Sisters, so that each of the 209 freshman women has a Big Sister to act as friend and advisor.
The work of the committee is not finished with helping new girls through the first week of school. The Big Sisters will be their friends throughout the year. The captains plan to promote acquaintance among the new students by taking their own groups of "Sisters" in to talk about them. They are also planning other ways in which the new girls may make friends early in the year and expect to entertain the groups frequently this year.

Coach Olcott Initiates New Military Marches For Football Practice
Gridiron Men Must Do Away With "Pills," "Hops", Etc. While Training
The Kansas football forces are to be made efficient in military drill as well as in football tactics. After the football practice Saturday morning, Coach Olcott put the squad through a short military drill.
After the drill, he lined up the men and told them that he was going to put every man on his honor to stop smoking cigarettes, go to dances, staying up late at night, and drinking at soda fountains. The training table will start soon, and every candidate will be expected to eat at the table.
The coach also reminded the men that it was a special privilege to remain in school this year, and that worst kind of a slacker was a young man who stayed at home while failed to develop himself physically and mentally. At the close of the talk, the men cheered for them and gave their word of assurance that they would do everything in their power to fit them together for the season.
Coach Olcott tried two or three different combinations in the line-up. There were but nineteen players out so the defensive team was considered ineffective. In spite of this failure, the defensive team played a strong game.
Scrimgames are becoming more lively every day. Simon, defensive back, has his nose broken, and Gearhart, defensive left guard, was also forced to the shed with a knee injury, however, and Gearhart not returned to the scrimgame after having his wound treated.
The first line-up tried out by the coach was: Captain Nielson, fullback; Wenzel, right half; Pringle, left; Wilson, quarter; Lonberg, right end; Liggett, right tackle; Woody, right guard; Davidson, center; Gearhart, left guard; Stephens, left tack; Russell, left end. This combination practiced signals awhile and then went into a scrimmage with the defensive team. Several good gains were made, with Pringle as the greatest maker.
After about thirty minutes workout, Coach Olcott sent Dennis in at right tackle, and changed Liggett to left tackle. Marquis also went in at quarter. This combination proved slightly stronger than the first, and several good line smashes were made with good gains. Pringle was again the ground gainer. He won his letter on the squad last year, but was out of the game most of the season with a broken collar bone.
Joseph Casey is another promising halfback, who made a good showing in the interclass games last year. He is speedy and starts as quickly as Jick Fast, who made the defeat of Nebraska possible last year.
A few minutes before the close of the scrimmage Clarence Gorrill, who tried out for the Varsity last year, was put in at quarter. After the practice the players were put through setting up exercises, and then trotted around the field twice before going to the showers.
SPORT BEAMS
With Nebraska rated as the strongest team in the Missouri Valley Conference this year, with thirty-nine Tigers out to make the team, and with a large aaggie force out including eleven letter men from last year, it is considered high time that every available man in the University should come out for the Kansas squad.
Twenty-one players already have come out for the team, and they are full of the old time fight, but it is absolutely necessary to have at least two teams in order to develop a first class team. There are enough good football men in the University to make the best fighting machine in the valley. It is up to the men of K. U. to get out and help make the team.
Coach Olcott has been informed that Frost, the burly guard of last year, along with Mandeville, the best freshman halfbacks last year, and Lassett, a dependable end, will arrive at the University today, with additional additions like Kansas football prospects will be booming.
Dutch Uhlraub, captain of the basketball team says practice will start about the first of next month. Many of last year's players will not be back, but he is expecting to develop a good team.
"My real name is Charley Wilson, but the girls all call me Honey," is the answer you will receive if you ask the jovial colored care-taker of Mc-
Cook Field his name. Honey has been at McCook Field for so long he has forgotten just when he did come, but he is happy nevertheless. He never has been known to get away and is a Kansas athlete at the University. He probably is known by as many Kansas athletes as any person at the University.
Headquarters Co. Wins
Football Game 27 to 0
The Headquarters Company football forces defeated a selected team from the other military units of Lawrence Saturday afternoon by a score of 27 to 0 in the opening clash of the season on McCook Field.
The Headquarters Company completely outclassed the selected team. The game was of especial interest to university fans because five former University men were in the Headquarters Company. These three men hit Hill, right halfback; Rajalp Lupher, quarterback; Pete Reedy, right tackle; Byron Cohn, right guard; and Robert McIlhenny, left end.
Lupher made the first touchdown after eleven minutes of play on a forward pass from Clements, who was the star of the game. Williams kicked goal. Clements made the other three touchdowns, one after three minutes of play in the second quarter, another in the middle of the third and the last in the middle of the last quarter. Pete Reedy, a letter man on the Kansas squad two years ago, kicked two goals out of two trials.
Blondie Jones is Honest!
A twentieth century Diogenes was the title given to Blondie Jones, c178 by eastern newspapers after he had returned a purse which he had found in Washington, where he is now an admirer in the United States navy.
He found a purse containing $500.
He advertised for the owner. He went to other expense and trouble to restore the purse to the person who had lost it. And Blondie was a K. U. p. citation once.
Will Give Guards Tobacco
RECORDS THE tobacco box established on the University campus a few days are by members of Company M has proved a failure, the Sigma Chi fraternity will give each man in the company two sacks of tobacco today.
Practically every man in the unit is from K. U. and it is therefore a University organization almost entirely, and the Sigma Chi men want the guardmen to realize that students are interested in their welfare.

French Classes Number 459, Breaking Record Of Former Enrollments
Spanish Less Popular This Year —Romance Department Has Increase of Twenty
Beginning French classes have enrolled 320 students this year. One hundred and fifty-seven are enrolled in advanced French courses, making a total of 459 in the French classes the largest enrollment the department of Romance languages ever has had in French.
Spanish is not so popular as French this year. Two hundred and two are enrolled in beginning Spanish and seventy-two in advanced classes. Four students are taking Portuguese and 19, Italian. The total enrollment in the department is 750, an increase of twenty.
Four new members have been added to the faculty of the department. Gordon La Fayette Cram takes the place of Prof. F. A. G. Cowper, who has been granted leave of absence to teach at the University of Wisconsin. Mr. Cram comes from Columbia University.
Henri Taillart comes to the department from South America and will teach French and Spanish. His home is in Rheims and members of his family have been there through the bombing. He and his sisters direct a French hospital.
Joose Osmail comes to the department from Barcelona and will teach Spanish. Edmund V. Gage is from Leland Stanford University.
Directories Will Not Have
Permanent Phone Number
Four members of the department handed in their resignations last summer. Mr. P. A. F. Appleboom sailed for France on the same ship with Dr. James Naismith and will give instructors a trip to Brazil. A. camps. Miss Anna G. Saby and Santiago Gutierrez resigned to take other positions.
With a new telephone system being installed in 'Lawrence the conditions of publishing the student directory are more complicated on over this year.
whine there are always some students who do not know their telephone number at the time of registration these people are cared for by being given a stamped card on which they are requested to mail this information to the Registrar's office. Within a short time after the closing of registration these cards usually are in and ready for compilation preparatory to getting out the directories.
This year the installation of a new telephone system by the consolidation of the Home and Bell systems makes it impossible for students to know what their permanent number will be.
W. A. Notttern, manager of the Kansas Telephone Company which is the system being installed, predicts the completion of the work within

Pay of Profs Stops When They Enter Army
Faculty members of the state educational institutions of higher learning in Kansas will not receive pay from the state while they are in military service and drawing pay from the government, according to a report by the App. state auditor, from the office of the state attorney-general Saturday.
Mr. Knapp had asked for a ruling on a recent plan of the state board of administration whereby professors would have received a sum equal to their salary while on the University faculty. The difference between their army salary and their army salary was to have been paid by the state under the board's plan. Approximately thirty K. U. instructors will be affected by the new ruling.

MayHave West Wing Of Administration Building Up July 1
University to Advertise For Bids For Long Looked For Work
Contract Let In 30 Days
New Addition Will House Classrooms, Art Gallery and Chapel
The University is ready to advertise for bids for the new Administration Building, according to a statement made by Chancellor Strover on Friday. The university is thirteen for it probably will be about thirty days before the contract is let.
A part of the material for the building is on hand. It consists mainly of brick from the state brick plant at the Lansing penitentiary. This has been on the ground since last May. There is also a quantity of brick on hand. Other material will not be moved until the contract is let.
State architect, Charles Chandler, will have supervision of the work of construction. There is no definite time set for the work to begin, but the building must be completed by July, 1919.
The foundation for the entire building has been laid for several years, money having been appropriated for this by the legislature of New York for appropriation for the completion of the building amounts to $225,000.
When completed the building will be the finest and largest on the campus. The administrative offices will be moved into it, and many new class rooms for the College are added. Their Thayer Art Collection will be housed there and a new chapel adequate for the use of the University will be opened.
Must Have Debaters Or Day Classes Will Close
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS TUESDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 25, 1017.
The time of meeting will be arranged to suit the convenience of those desiring the course, and all who are interested are asked to leave their names and preference of hours at the office in the basement of Green Hall.
Owing to the small enrollment in this year's debating classes regular work may not be given unless more enroll within the next few days. Because of this fact, assistant professor Howard T. Hill, is arranging to hold a class in the evening for any group of students who are interested in debating and debating problems to devote to it at least one hour a week.
The class will receive the personal instruction of Mr. Hill and will probably meet during the week at seven or eight o'clock in the evening for one hour each on our course, when the advancement of the work requires it. Freshmen who have been interested in high school debating will be made especially welcome.
K. U. Fine Arts School Sends Concerts by Freight
The School of Fine Arts of the University of Kansas is shipping its first concert of the new school year this week. "Shipping" is literally true for the first order for Dean Harold L. Butler's specially prepared "freightable" concert has come in and is being filled. Fifteen talking machine records and a typewritten lecture on the music comprise the concert.
Last year the boxes of records were sent to more than 288 Kansas towns by the University. Often they were kept in a town a week or more and did duty for high school audiences, clubs and general concerts.
The University has thirteen of these, specially prepared "freightable" concerts. They are arranged to illustrate the diversity of musical styles that has prepared to go with each set. The most popular of these concerts are two of American music, old folk songs of the South and the North at the time; they are the work of some modern composers.
Many women's clubs over the state have used the series as a course in music for their towns. The sets of this series in their order illustrate barbarian and oriental music, the beginnings of oratorio and opera, the development of orchestration and modern music.

Violinist Is Called Into Aviation Service
Harold L. Butler, dean of the School of Fine Arts, is having difficulty in arranging the University Concert Course for this year. Last Friday Dean Butter received a telegram from Albert Spaulding, the violinist who was to have given the third concert on the course, saying that all his recitals were cancelled. Mr. Spaulding has joined the Aviation Corps in France, where he will serve as an interpreter.
When Mr. Spaulding made his engagements for the season, it was understood that he would not be needed by the War Department until next spring, but because of his command of five languages, he has been called the "Languagesman." Spaulding is the son of Spaulding of sporting goods fame, and will probably not miss the $40,000 which he would have received for the concert course.
War Department Is Unable T Spare Officer For Drilling Purposes
Military Training for K. U. Men Is Held Up By Lack of Army Man
Word received by Chancellor Frank Strong from the War Department notified the University authorities that the department will be unable to furnish any aid either in officers or equipment. All officers available for service at colleges and universities are required, and many miles have remained unfilled. Some of these are in colleges that have maintained courses in military drill for a number of years previous to the outbreak of the war.
Military drill at the University this year is at present uncertain. It was hoped that an army officer could be obtained and a regular course in military drill installed, but this at present seems impossible.
Because of the great demand for equipment it is impossible to spare any to schools not already having an established course in military drill. All the new model rifles obtainable are needed to equip the new army, and no discarded "Kraigs" can be used to equip them as difficult to obtain, as every manufacturer of such material is swamped with war orders.
According to the chancellor's secretary, it is likely that a meeting of the University Senate will be called next week to determine what will be done.
A course of physical drill, however, was outlined by the department, and recommended for all men in the University. It is likely that this will be installed. The exact nature of this drill has not been made known.
Compulsory drill will probably be required of every man in the University this year, according to Dean Olin Templin, and the same drill will be optional to women of K. U. Prof E. M. Briggs, who has charge of military work at Harvard University during the past summer, and lieutenant until recently in Company M, the military unit usually will be the man in charge of the work. Students with military experience and members of the faculty will assist in the work according to the most recent plan.
Ernest Pickering and Newton Benscheidt were chosen as candidates from the School of Engineering for the Men's Student Council at a mass meeting in Marvin Hall this morning.
Council Representative Chosen By Engineers
Another Track Star Reports Everett Bradley, who won the individual cup at the Invitation High School track meet here last year has reported for practice. The fact that he puts the shot thirty feet and ten inches and clears the high jump bar at five feet nine inches, speaks well for his future in Missouri Valley athletics.
Each candidate must file a petition signed by twenty-five voters with the president of the Men's Student Council before six o'clock Wednesday night as the new members will be chosen at a meeting of the council that night. The Council is authorized to laws to fill what vacancies itself, but owing to the fact that nine members of the council did not return to school a special election to determine the students' candidates was called.
Presidents of other schools have class mass meetings to fill vacancies in the council. Ten candidates from the College are to be chosen at a meeting in Fraser Hall at 12:20 o'clock tomorrow and four from the School of Law will be chosen at 11:20 o'clock in Green Hall.
Inoculation Is Free For All Students Now At University Hospital
Treatment Is Not Compulsory
* But Is Urged By Health Authorities
Free typhoid inoculations for University students are scheduled to begin at the University Hospital this week. Tuesday will be set aside for women and Thursday for men. These inoculations are not compulsory, but freshmen men and women and upperclassmen entering school for the first time are expected to take advantage of them.
Physical examinations for freshmen gym, classes and University athletes also are to be given at the hospital this year. They will begin Thursday, September 27, and continue throughout the week.
They will be given under the direction of six doctors from the University School of Medicine. The men in training will be cared for every fifteen minutes.
As yet, there have been no cases of typhoid or small pox reported to the officials, and ever possible means is being used to prevent any outbreak of typhoid in students this year. The first case of typhoid appeared just a year ago.
A new feature of this year's campaign against disease at the University will be the compilation of a record of the family and personal history of the students, as a means of sharing information. This will include the racial extraction of the student's parents, student's health at present, wart relatives have had tuberculosis, neurasthenia or other innertable diseases. Under personal history will be listed the age and birthplace of the student, approximate age of first major injury, complications of injuries they have had or operations they have undergone. Students also will be asked to state what mental and physical work other than schooling they are doing, the condition of their appetite, the average number of hours spent studying, and per day they use tea, coffee or other beverages. This material will be file at the hospital and kept during the student's stay at the University.

C. A. Employment Agency.
The file system has proven successful this year. An applicant wishing a job files his application, together with the work desired along with his number. When a job is open, the man is notified and is given two blanks.
The Employer's Blank, is filled out by the person for whom the work is done, telling the kind of work, the hours required, the amount received, and how the job was filled. The Employee's Blank contains his name, address, employer, number of hours worked, and date of third record is made by the secretary, listing the amount of work done, and money paid the applicant.
There have been 200 applicants, but there are several jobs still open. Mr. McHeeny reports that the co-operation with business men has been exceptionally good. Mr. McHeeny can be found at his office in Myers Hall on week days from eight o'clock till noon, and from 12 a. m. till 2 p. m., and on Saturday from 7:30 till 12:00 a.m.
The final University band tryout will be held in room 502, Frasier Hall, from 7 until 9 o'clock tonight.

Freshmen Will Wear Caps; Fraternities Go On Record To Support Enforcement
Nothing, apparently, will save the freshmen from wearing their diminutive hearear gear in spite of the University Senate ruling abolishing paddling. The allied forces of upper class officials remain the time honored custom shall remain.
Laws Will Confiscate All Other Headgear Until Regulation Cans Appear
Every fraternity on the Hill tool special action on the question in meeting last night and all are in favor of continuing the practice. The Pan-Hellenic Council will discuss the matter at its next meeting. The officers say in all probability they will cooperate with the Men's Student Council and explain that the president may many fraternities had their freshmen wear the caps last year after the Senate made the ruling abolishing pad dling.
The students of the School of Law have contrived to enforce the tradition and still not interfere with the ruling of the Senate. Student-leaders in that school say that the frosh who appears on the campus without the prescribed millinery will not be paddled but their hats and caps will be taken from them and confiscated until they appear with the regulation cap.
It is not the will of the Student Council or the student body to work a hardship on the first year men. In explaining their stand the council points to the fact that the freshmen of a few years ago selected the cap as worn today and wore it of their own volition. The custom has grown to a tradition on the Hill and the distinctive mark tends to bring the freshman together. The point out that the casual attire theme for the cap is a mark of distinction, the journalists wear corduroy trousers to be known as a separate group on the Hill, and for the same reason the freshman cap should remain.
The date for the appearance of the cap has not been officially set, but the general advent of the headgear is the day of the first football game against Fold and it is not probable that the date will be changed this year.
German Language Proves Unpopular at University
The German language is decidedly unpopular at the University. Enrollment in the department of German is fifty per cent less than last year, and but seven faculty members have been retained to teach the language. There were twelve faculty members in the department last year.
Advanced classes in German are practically the same in enrollment as in former years, but there is a big difference. Students enrolling in the department.
The five members of the faculty who will not be here this year are Prof. E. F. Engel, who has been given a year's leave of absence to study at Chicago University; Miss Leigh Giles, who has been given a year's leave of absence to study at the University of Wisconsin; Prof. H. V. E. Palmblad, who will teach in Carthage College, Cartage, Illinois; Miss Margaret Hochoefer, who will teach in Wittenberg College, Springfield, Ohio; and Prof. Hawkins, who is at the officers' camp at Pt. Sheridan, Illinois.
For three successive years Carol Martin, 'c19, has won first place in the amateur stock judging contest held at the Douglas County Fair in Woodland Park. At the contest last week Miss Martin scored 370 points out of a possible 400. Miss Martin lives at Noria, where her parents have a stock farm and it is from this source that she obtained her knowledge that put her in the lead in a contest in which students from Manhattan, Haskell and other agricultural institutions were entered.

Must Show Proof to Get Credits for Farm Work
Students with withdraw from school last spring in order to do their bit on the farm will be granted a military pass and credit in their courses only in case they have been actively engaged in farm work from the time of their withdrawal until September first. This announcement was made today from the office of Olin Templin, Dean of the College.
Assistant Dean D. L. Patterson is examining the credentials of students claiming credit on this ground and will grant the military pass to those who give satisfactory proof of his academic achievement. So far statistics of the number of students receiving credit in this way are not available.

Hugo Wedell, secretary of the University Y. M. C. A. was called to Chanute Tuesday because of the illness of his wife's mother, Mrs. D. L. Burkert, who had been closed, however, with Eddie Todd and Lloyd McHenry in charge.
In spite of the decreased enrollment on the Hill, Gordon Thompson, student pastor for the Methodist Episcopal church, reports more students, in proportion to enrollment present at the Welcome Sunday service last Sunday, than at the beginning of any previous year.
G. Austin Davis, fellow in chemistry from the College of Emporia ast year, now is in a signal corps tationed at Wichita. He expects to be ordered to Ft. Sill at any time, he ays.
Eddie Bigger, freshman Medic on the Hill last year, has enlisted in the Topeka Hospital Corps, popularly known as the "Washburn Unit," and expects to continue his course "somewhere in France."
Miss Fay Friedburg spent Saturday and Sunday at her home in Toeka.
Pauline Carr, c'18, has returned to resume her work at the University after spending the summer in California.
Caroline McNutt, c17, has returned to Abilene after spending Friday and Saturday at the Kappa Alpha Theta House. Miss McNutt is instructor in English at the Abilene high school.
Zenophen Smith and Fred Jenkens spent Saturday and Sunday in Kansas City.
Earl Bressler comes from Nickerson. He's a freshman on the Hill. He has young ideas. And good ones. Had ten friends he wanted to write to. So he bought post cards with pictures of churches on one side and "this-side-for-address" on the opposite side, then cards with churches on them. So the tenth friend will have to do without. Couldn't spoil his record.
Anxious Freshman inquires: Do we have a freshman class have to wear cap too?
Another A. F. asks: Do we have to wear the caps to church?
James Rodgers, like all other soldier boys, was broke. But James Rodgers had an idea. By word of mouth he told civilians he used to be a handsome dresser and he had some of his cast off clothing for sale. He cried an auction sale in his room and is now rich by a few dollars. All of which happens when one has an idea. And the clothes.
Comes now the annual influx of new reporters to the Kansan sanctum. They slink in, look around and come up for an assignment. The city editor tells them to interview Professor Boytonon on "The Why of a Vanity Box." They find Professor Haworth and talk to him about it. They come back, sit down to the typewriter and begin to peck. Find a new mark which isn't on their desk. They go for a hole list ???? for a whole line. That through they peek out the proverbial story: Mr. John Jones spent the week-and in Kansas City. They get tired and talk aloud.
All of which gives the city edito much joy and makes him desire a life of drunkenness.
Selling "Pills" On K.U.Campus Must Cease—Chancellor
Soldiers Cannot Use Means to Increase Company Fund
Law Faculty Disagree As To Legality of Giving Out Cigarettes
Not a Government Reserve
Yesterday cigarettes were sold to my one choosing to buy at a stand opposite the chemistry building. The company sent the sales went to the company fund.
The sale of cigarettes to University students by members of Company M at the company canteen has been stopped at the request of the officers and said today. Hereafter cigarettes will be sold only to enlisted men.
Although the sale of cigarettes is prohibited by law in Kansas and smoking on the campus is forbidden by a ruling of the board of administration, no protest was made by the University authorities yesterday and the canteen did a rushing business. The members of Company M contended that the sale was permissable because they were under military instead of state law and that military cigarettes should prohibit the sale of cigarettes on government reservations. A federal encampment is classed as a government reservation. No attempt was made yesterday to enclose the sale.
Dear Alan Templin, of the college, asked early this morning that the stand be removed and that cigarettes be sold only at the regular canteen in the gym. Later the Chancellor asked the officers to stop the sale to students.
Legal authorities differ as to whether national guard encampments, such as the camp on the Hill, are really government reservations. Some members of the law faculty say that the encampment cannot be considered federal property and the sale of cigarettes to members of the company is a violation of the state law.
Y.W. Offers Courses In Religious Work for University Students
Y. W. C. A. plans for this year are bigger and more extensive than ever before.

THE COMMON DRINKING CUP
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1917.
Kansas has a law on her statute books against it. Railroad companies will not tolerate it in their stations. Mercantile houses employing large numbers of people do not permit its presence. Factories insist that their workmen shall not be permitted to use it. And yet, here at the University of Kansas—with all its culture and all its refinement—we have it with us—
The common drinking cup!
And then they say we aren't democratic up here!
The obvious thing is that those cups placed beneath the distilled water containers were not originally intended to be "common" cups. Some professor, perhaps—absent-minded as usual—brought it there for his own convenience, and left it. A janitor came along and saw it. He was thirsty. So he took a drink. Perhaps somebody going by wondered where that dirty old colored fellow got of啊 such a nice looking cup. Then came the co-ed—you know,—one of those sweet, innocent, butterfly-like things. And her dainty lips touched the cup. And so on, and so on—until the cup had been used by perhaps a tenth of the people in the University.
Seriously, the common drinking cup is a menace. It must not be tolerated on the campus. The wise student who sees one will avoid its use. The proper University authorities, if they are alive to the situation, will see that those cups now doing duty are taken away.
We can't help but envy those military fellows over by the Gym who stand up and shout "To Arms!" as the pretty co-eds flutter by.
GET BUSY!
The first week of school is over, and things have now settled down to their normal routine. Classroom work has begun in earnest, and hereafter the biggest thing on the University calendar will be the steady pull of scholastic work. Now is the time for the student to awake to the things that lie ahead of him.
If you are an old student, stop and think a moment. Have the years that have just passed been the kind that you are satisfied with? Have you taken advantage of the opportunities that have been knocking at your door? Or have you put off the big things until tomorrow-thinking that you would have ambition to do something worth while then? Have you meant something to the University, to those who are making it possible for you to be here, to yourself?
And you, students who are here for the first time! There is a great deal more in store for you here than the gala affairs that cartoonists portray. Are you coming for the nine months of work that brings its reward, or are you going to spend that time fiddling away at this and that, and never doing anything worth while? Are you going to make yourself a force in University life?
Whether you are an upperclassman or a freshman, wake up! See the duty that is yours and try your best to do it. Have a mental housecleaning today, and don't let the dust accumulate for the rest of the college year.
Campus pests: The cuss who borrows stamps.
JES' PUTTERIN' AROUND
"Too many students go to the library merely to putter around," says one professor of his classes. "Students go over there, spend twenty minutes glancing through four or five magazines, read a serious book for perhaps half an hour, and then spend from ten minutes to an hour puttering around with a humorous magazine or something of a similar nature."
There can be no doubt but that the professor's criticism is well founded. It's so easy to wander into Spooner, stop at the magazine racks on the way to the desk, and then become mildly interested in the ephemeral literature there instead of the solid reading stored away for us between the covers of the books on the shelves.
Understand, however, that this is not a criticism of the library management for permitting the lighter magazines to occupy a place on the shelves. That the better grade of popular magazines is found in Spooner is only an evidence of the broad mindedness of those in charge there. The trouble is with the student who hasn't sufficient control of his will to pass up the magazines, no matter how tempting they may look, when he should be reading more solid material.
"Yes, for heaven's sake read the humorous magazines," says the professor who makes the criticisms. "They'll sweeten your disposition and make your work easier by giving it variety. But when you go to the library to read a humorous magazine, sit down and read it. Don't putter around from this thing to that, and waste from half an hour to an hour just doing nothing."
All of which might be summed up by saying: "When you work, don't play—and when you play, don't work!"
Judging from the tinkling sounds arising nightly in the vicinity of some rooming houses, the ukelele wasn't one of the war-time luxuries to be suppressed. Do your duty, Mr. Suppressor!
a witticism is the thing you were just about to say yourself.
COLLEGE ACTIVITIES AND THE WAD
Athletes at first glance seemed to be the easiest spared of college activities. A few universities, in the first rush of the sacrificial impulse, voted to suspend them during the war. The fate of athletics was uncertain for weeks in other institutions, among them Indiana, but reaction to basic common sense was inevitable.
Events in relation to American war have followed a logical course.
When the United States was hurled last April into the world war, sacrifice to country was the great impulse of all good Americans.
The young man who keeps his body fit and hard for his country's service is of as much value as he serves in the army, or serve her after the war. Athletics should be among the very last things to be given up. Any sacrifice of them before the direct need of the sport is a useless and lamentable one.
Picking the winner of the Big Ten football scramble this fall, for instance will be matched just like lucifers into a barrel of gasoline — Indiana Student.
Institutions that kept their heads retained athletics, and those who dropped them have in many cases quietly revoked their hasty action.
quette revoked their hasty actions. So colleague athletics, battered by the war but still in the ring, we have yet with us. Interest in them will be lessened to some extent by war, but our own struggles by the war's unsettling of "done."

WHAT HE THINKS OF COLLEGE MEN
"The reason so many college boys fail is that they are full of theories; they think they know it all. A college course is a good thing, an excelled course. It is the right kind of youth. Quite a number of the highest positions are filled by men who went through college, but who had no false notions as to what was required of them when they entered business. No man is worth entering business without the heat of the battle and had his theories subordinated to practice.

"The son of rich parents is handicapped in his youth. He gets no experience out of doing things and no opportunity to benefit from hard knocks such as come the other fellow's way.
“When a boy comes to ask me to put him through college I tell him it would be the worst thing that could happen to him. I say: ‘You would not only have a burden of debt on your shoulders when you finished college, but you would have the additional burden of getting experience—and it is pretty hard to get experience.’ You can earn money only after you have had experience’”—Theodore Vail.

Plan to Erect Tablet In Honor of Kansan's Sacrifice Gains Favor
Authorities Sanction Move to Help Commemorate Name of Fitzsimons
According to present indications, definite action will be taken soon in regard to the erection of a memorial to Lieut. W. T. Fitzsimons, the first K. U. student to lose his life in the European battlefield and the first American to die under Old Glory. Chancellor Strong this morning said he was heartily in favor of a memorial of some kind, either to be erected by the family or by him. He was unaccompanied as to the type of memorial and also as to its cost.
Registrar George O. Foster is of the opinion that if anything is done, a memorial tablet similar to the one for Lieut. Alfred C. Afford, the K. student who gave his life in the Spanish-American war, would be put up.
Lieutenant Alford, of the class of '96, was killed in action February 7, 1898. A bronze tablet, costing about $600, was put on the south wall of the chapel. A similar tablet for Lieutenant Fitzsimons could also be placed in the chapel, according to Mr. Foster.

Football Chances Grow With Addition of New And Veteran Players
Varsity Will Scrimmage Wit Haskell First Part of Next Week
Varsity football chances improved a bit yesterday with many of the old men out for practice on Hamilton Field, along with several veteran players from last year's freshman team Team Nettles, a Topoeka youth who tips the scales at nearly 200 pounds, who is fast and kicks the ball in true K. U. style, was out for left tackle, which is his favorite role. Roberto Moreno, was playing end, Lous Hull was holding down center, the position he played on the Varsity squad a year ago.
walter Zoellner, who played good ball for the juniors last fall in the class games, was out for left guard. Wenzel did well at fullback on the team. Nielsen played his usual fierce offence game. Marquis, a quarter for the same team, made several good plays, through holes in the line. Ziegler played the tackle opposite Nettels. Pringle went through for some smash-ups and play for this team. Gorill showed good head work playing halfback.
A feature of the practice last night was a pass of twenty-two yards by Pringle to Shim. Shim is playing his usual wide-awake game at end, grabbing the passes out of the air consistently. Davis, Sims, Bunn, Woody, Lonborg and Idol also were playing at his position of left guard and his weight is a great aid to his fierce playing.
Mandeville and Miner are now in Topeka working on a contract, job which will end October 1, and both are expected to meet that. That露 is expected on any day.
First freshman practice found twenty-two men trying for the team. The new freshman coach, Jay Bond, reported a light squad, but the men were "villing workers and play with them," Bond said. The under punts, and falling on the ball along with training orders made up the first day's work.
The Varsity will scrimagem with Haskell the first part of next week, and they are also expected to be in good enough shape to mix the regulars the same week.

Prof. R. M. Woodbury, assistant professor in the department of economics, has resigned to accept a position in the children's bureau of the department of labor, at Wash-ton University. He left Friday to start work there.
A material increase in salary induced him to leave the University. Four or five K. U. faculty members are now working in the government service at Washington and others are considering offers there. Prof. M. A. Smith will take Prof. Woodbury's place here.

Registration Total Shows Decrease of 525 Students
Final registration figures show a decrease of 525 students over last year. There were 2,621 registered last year and only 2,092 have paid their fees this fall. Of the twenty-six who entered yesterday, nineteen were men. Only forty-six students have registered since Thursday.
The largest and probably the only increase in any school this year is a fifty per cent in the School of Medicine. This is due largely to the great war demand made for physiotherapy-tty-two are enrolled in this school.
The first man to try out for cross country was seen plugging along the campus road on his two-mile jaunt. His name is unknown but bystanders stated that he was on the frush squad last fall.
Enrollment in the School of Law has been cut nearly in two by the loss of students. The engineers have lost heavily among the upper classmen, the teachers and men taking engineering this fall. Five girls are enrolled in the School of Engineering, while two are studying medicine and five, pharmacy.
SPORT BEAMS
Both the Varsity and freshmen practiced yesterday afternoon on Hamilton Field, for the workmen are trying to get McCook Field into good playing condition for the first game October 13.
Bunn Bunn, who played at right half last fall on the first year team, is playing a good game on the Varsity.
The freshman team this fall should have a good center if Schwartz, regular center of the Topeka high school eleven last year, is for the team.

A mysterious rumor is abroad on the campus. Some fair co-ed has apparently been knitting in class. Since the Kansan reporters are the only detectives the Hill possesses, it became the lot of one of them to trace this choice bit of gossip and find the guilty party. But to no avail.
After waiting hours, the cub was at last granted an interview with Professor Boynton. The reporter told him he was from the Kansan. That was enough. He threw up his hands in horror and disgust.
What? Knit in Prof. Boynton's Classes.
"Get out," he fairly screamed.
"But, sir do you know anything about anyone knitting in class?" desperately plead the cub.
"I do not," the professor said emphatically, and at the same time leading the reporter toward the door. "Say, what would you do if anyone attempted to knit in one of your classes?" insisted the cub
"Well, I can tell you one thing—they wouldn't knit long!" This was followed by an angry glare and a bang of his office door.
Somehow or other the reporter is thoroughly convinced that there hasn't been much knitting going on in Professor Boyton's classes anyway.

The fossils to be sent here are associated with the famous "Fossil Man of Vero," found last summer on the east coast of Florida. Scientists have, until then, disputed the existence of man during the Pleistocene period. Some say he was a Bison in his Pleistocene formation on the plains of western Kansas, which had an arrow point under its shoulder. He was not successful in getting this accepted as proof of the existence of Pleistocene

K. U. Women Plan To Assist in Work Of Red Cross Unit
W. S. G. A. Outlined Year's Activities at First Meeting Last Night
Subscribed $50 To Fund
Students Will Co-operate With Downtown Workers—Organize Districts
Red Cross work for every woman in the University is the plan of the Women's Student Government Association for the coming year. The Council subscribed $50 for the work at its first meeting last night.
This money will be given to the Lawrence Red Cross Society and used for the purchase of materials. All funds are to be supervision of the Lawrence chapter.
Each one of the districts will be organized as a unit for the work as soon as the leaders and faculty advisers for the districts are appointed. The officers of the council will do this this week. All district meetings will be held next week.
ORGANIZE FOR WORK
Knitting probably will be the first work taken up since it does not require so much instruction as the making of hospital supplies. The Lawman chamber will be asked to furnish instructors for the different kinds of work.
RED CROSS WORK FIRST TASK
NUMBER 8.
RED CROSS WORK FIRST TASK
"The organization of the districts will undertake by the council this year," Katherine Reding, president, said.
"The beginning of Red Cross work will give a definite basis for work and will make the results of the meetings worth while. Some plan to take red cross among the districts in the Red Cross work will be used during the year."
Bacteriology Graduates Badly Needed In Kansas
"Before this year the districts were organized merely on a social basis and it was difficult to arouse enthusiasm among the wooem. The importance of getting all the women of the district together to discuss their problems was not realized. Other social affairs on the hill crowded out the district meetings. The council hopes for a closer organization of the women this year."
Altho there are seventy-three junior and senior bacteriology students, there is an unusual demand both in this state and in the east for graduates from this University de partement.
Assistant professor N. P. Sherwood,
head of the department of bacteri-
iology, says the demand for graduate
students is great. Because of the
scarcity, he had trouble getting two
instructors. /
In addition to openings in Kansas cities, many colleges want instructors in this work. Vassar was anxious to secure a K. U. graduate, a woman preferably, to teach there, but was unable to do so.
"And the department is busy at present because smaller towns all over the state that have no official food or milk inspectors, send in iced samples to the University to get accurate tests made." Professor Sherwood said. However, several towns would be glad to employ graduate students from other universities were able to secure some jobs. Wichita is only waiting for an opportunity to get some graduate for food and dairy inspection."
Spent Summer at Lakes
Prof. Arthur MacMurray, head of the department of public speaking, and Mrs. MacMurray, enjoyed a motor trip through Northern Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana last summer. Professor MacMurray tried his luck with the reel at many of the schools he visited. He also distance of 3,500 miles. He also spent four weeks lecturing at teachers' institutes in Illinois and Indiana.
Pharmacists Elect Officers
Pharmacists Elect Officers
The Pharmaceutical Society met Tuesday and elected officers. H. A. Skraer was chosen president; Miss Lourie Linn, vice-president; B. R. Nelson, secretary and treasurer. B. T. Johnson was elected to represent the Pharmacy School on the Student Council.
George Penwell, c'19, is back at K. U. He expected to attend Arkansas University this winter, but after arriving there, he heard the call of Mount Oread. Penwell was a member of last year's glee club.
Sam Slade, c2'1, was called home Monday by the sudden death of his father. Slade lives in Kansas City.
"Wear Rubbers," Say
K. U. Health Heads
"Wear Your Rubbers" is the slogan advised by the University Hospital authorities. Besides preventing colds and sore throats during this rainy weather, it is bound to save dollars' worth of shoe leather.
Colds and sore throats have been the principle cases treated at the Hospital since the opening of the school year, and care should be taken especially in wet weather, to prevent these minor ills.
Indigestion, caused by irregular and over-eating, is also being carefully watched at the hospital, since the symptoms of typhoid fever and indigestion are practically the same. Typhoid being prevalent all over the state, students are urged to be inoculated immediately.
Boys of Company M to Get Chicken Pie Dinner Before Farewell Dance
Home Economics Department Will See That Soldiers Are Treated Right
A big home-cooked chicken pie dinner for the boys of Company M has been arranged for 5:30 o'clock Friday evening in Robinson Gymnasium to precede the company fund farewell dance. This was announced by Miss Miss Elizabeth Sprague, head of the department of home economics.
Miss Sprague also emphasized the fact that reports of the hospitality and good times shown the troops in other towns have drifted back to the members of Company M and they lack that personal interest, and have little chance to quarter a university town in vacation, was just the same as home.
Captain Jones said that the soldiers more than appreciated the idea of a chicken pie dinner. Members of the company still have a slight recollection of how chicken pie tastes, he said.
Students and faculty members of the department are to prepare and serve the dinner, but the department must be assisted with the expense so a subscription is being taken today. The more money contributed the more the soldier boys will have to eat.
The dinner will be served on the first floor of Robinson Gymnasium.
Old Glory To Adorn Gym
Good Music And Polished Floor Will Add To Enjoyment Of Dancers
The Stars and Stripes are to fly from every corner of Robinson Gymnasium Friday night when the students and faculty members of the University gather there for a farewell dance for Company M. The soldiers of Company M have charge of decorations and will adorn the gymnasium with red, white and blue bunting with the Stars and Stripes occupying the principal position in the hall.
Tickets for the dance were put on sale this morning, and may be obtained from Walter Havelkorst, president of the Men's Student Council; Captain Frank Jones, or other membursed officers; Gymnasium; or from Lawson May and John Montgomery at the Kansan office.
A soldier's tent, with a stack of arms in front, will be placed at one end of the floor, while refreshments will be sold at the other end by members of the company for the benefit of the company fund. All of the money earned from the dance will be added to the company fund.
The men of Company M are puzzled. They can understand why they are short of clothing and ordinance, but they always have held the opinion that their Uncle Sammy was the little task using lending money that a little task with mobilizing a national army would not seriously affect his nookbook.
No pay has been received since the mobilization of the company, August 5. Every man in the organization is "broke," and has borrowed as much or more than his pay amounts to, according to the men. They are getting anxious for their pay, and catch eager at faint rumors that a paymaster is on his way to Lawrence with money. But all rumors to date, like most army rumors, are only rumors, and in the meantime the men are waiting, and wondering, and wishing.

Action On Graft Must Wait Until Election of New Members of Council
Meeting With Authorities Last Night Brought No
The greatest good for the students, is the aim of the action to eliminate the graft that has characterized the conduct of student affairs for the past few years. At this time when economy is the key note of every move wherein something might be saved and students attending colleges this year are at a greater disadvantage than ever before in avoiding unnecessary and heavy expenses, the Student Council feels that it was its social affairs by making the expenses of the social affairs by making the excessive profits of the officers and promoters. Salaries of officers may be lowered or even done away with entirely and the prices of Prom tickets will not be so large.
The Men's Student Council has been unable to decide what definite in regard to the plans to control graft in student affairs. There are several vacancies in the membership board, and we will be visible to wait until later in the week when these places will be filled before action would be taken. At a meeting of the Council with Chancellor Frank Strong and Registrar Peter yesterday the general details of the proposed plans were discussed.
It is planned to have budgets made out of all of the expenses of student affairs and all bills will be paid by vouchers through the hands of Registrar Foster who will be given full charge of receiving the dues from the students and supervising the paying of bills.
Hill Again Faculty Member
Many of the vacancies in the faculty will not be filled, according to Chancellor Frank Strong, owing to the decrease in the student enrollment. The list of new members of the faculty, as recently printed in The Kansan, is about complete, for this semester, and it is unlikely that this list will be added to next semester unless more vacancies occur.
Will Not Fill Vacancies
Thirty-Two Places Are Filled on Band; Others Named Later
Director McCanles Picks Hal of Number Trying Out For Position
For Position
Thirty-two places on the University Band were announced by J. C. McCannies, director of the band, this morning.
Six or eight more men will be selected from those trying out before the next rehearsal. Those men who tried out, but whose names do not appear in the program, will serve in the order of the showing they made, to fill vacancies in the band later.
A piccolo player and a flute player are still needed to complete the band. Any students playing these instruments should see Director McCanles at once for positions in the band.
Sixty-six men tried out for the bana his year, while last year a hundred men tried for positions. Director McCanles announces there will be but one band this year because the material does not justify two.
The following men were chosen for places on the band;
Gordon Musgrove, Jay Hargett, Walter N. Nelson, Carl A. Gray, Harold L. Hytte, Charles Koleany, Jos.H. Walter, Howard Haughawnt, Vernon Sorrell, Renee W. Howl, Hough, Elmer H. Bradley, A. O. Daneley, Jr., Harry M. Stucker, Rinal R. Oglevic, Guy Sackett, Austin R. Sanborn, Harold M. Goodwin, Ralph A. Davis, Roscoe J. Robinson, Dallas L. Convis, Davison M. Davisson, Clarence T. Weldman, Oscar Telegrlehner, Joe Dahres, Popper, Harold P. Shores, Hoyt L. Roush, C. Barnard, Stanley C. Taylor, Charles M. Edgerton
War Conditions Create Demand For Explosives
Triitroi-toluine and ammonal, two new explosives which have been brought into use by the present war, have opened a wide field of experiment for American chemists. The problem, according to Prof. W. A. Mitakes, department of chemistry, is not to overcome more powerful explosive, but to get a metal with sufficient strength to resist the attack of the explosives used.
It is said the charge used in firing a three-inch gun of today would destroy a 12-inch gun of the type used in the Civil war. Chemists are at present interested in the discovery of some alloy which will prove successful in the construction of high power guns.
Soldiers Sell Dance Tickets Members of Company M will sell tickets to the command's farewell dance festival, and also the company fund. Tickets also may be obtained from Walter Hawkorset, Lawson May and John Montgomery.

Annual Freshman Frolic
For Girls Friday Night
"Everybody out to the Circus," is the invitation to the women of the university for the freshman party Friday night @clock in Robinson Gymnasium.
According to Evelyn Rorabaugh, director, the annual frilly given by the W. Y. C. A. for the freshman will be a circus with all the earmarks of a real circus—peanuts, pop-corn, forsakes as well as freshman. Upper classmen as well as freshman are invited and big sisters are urged to bring their little sisters.
Plain Tales
A communication to the Kansan from one of its cubs in regard to the article to be found at the bottom of the Plain Tales column yesterday:
Comes now the cold, seathing criticism of the City Editor to blight our maiden efforts. We didn't know the Kansan sanctum from the chemistry lab; we didn't know the city editor from the janitor; we didn't know the top from the bottom of a typewriter. Did we get sympathy? No. We. We called down for it. We are said to slimly look around, to hunt and peck, to make him care and desire a life of drunkenness. We thought to help him, to relieve him of his many cares, to make his paper a success. But now—
Soldiers are supposed to answer taps and all other commands where they have to stand at attention. But our women won't be slackers. So every day we can see several of them waking with their soldier men to camp, where they wait on the corner while their men 'tenshun. Then when it's all over they gather up their men and walk slowly and sadly away.
Huh, what's the city editor anyway?
One young freshman girl caused great commotion in a boy's rooming house yesterday when she absent-mindedly strayed half way up the stairs before she discovered she roomed next door.
The crowd gathered. Someone hurt, maybe. Two girls leaning over examining something lying prone upon the earth. They pick it up. Put it down. Just move On. Crowd disperses. Just leave. The "animalology" department who have found a cute little dead snake and they are taking it to their teacher.
The newly formed sisters are getting angry at the rain. Because they have had to wear rain coats for two days or ever since they put on the ribbons of their favorite sisterhood. And folks can't see through raincoats.
The question now comes up for discussion in this paper: What is best for the grown man who walks down the main street of a decent, self-respecting village with a complaining ukeleeing to one arm?
The shower baths in Robinson Gymnasium now are ready for use. They have been repaired to such an extent that water trickles from them

Herbert S. Beironet, c'19, spent Sunday in Kansas City.
The departure of the soldier men from Lawrence means much to our fair co-eds. And to other forms of amusement. A house party was being planned and mother was being asked if daughter couldn't attend a party this week end. Mother being well posted about daughter's affairs said that she didn't believe daughter could because the soldiers were going away Sunday and John comes every other night and Arthur every other night.

Council Candidates Were Chosen Today At Mass Meetings
Nine Vacancies Made Special Arrangement Necessary To Choose New Men
To Elect Members Tonight
Half of Nominees Will Get Office—Mignon Schell College Secretary
The men nominated by the College at 12:20 o'clock today were: Ernst Kugler, c'20, Gail Wilson, c'20, Ray Paramore, c'20, Elvyn Cowgill, c'18, Homer Hunt, c'19, Clarence Gorrill, c'18, Willard Hilton, c'19, Harold Hoover, c'20, Arl Frost, c'18 and Herbert Laslett, c'18.
All schools having vacancies on the student council have chosen their candidates for election to the Men's Student Council at mass meetings held yesterday and today. Because of the large number of vacancies on the council, special meetings were held where many men were elected as there were many women night the council will choose nine new members from the men chosen.
Mignon Schell, c'18, was elected secretary of the College. All were elected unanimously as there was no competition.
At a meeting of the School of Law at 11:20 o'clock the following men were nominated: Arthur W. Hershberger, '18, John B. Murphy, '19, Walter F. Zoellner, '19, John L Fogarty, '19, The School of Pharman E. J. Johnson, p19, for its representative, and its members from the School of Engineering, chosen yesterday, are Ernest Pickering and Newton Benscheid.
There were nine vacancies in the Men's Student Council this year and as this is half the total number of members, the men decided to give the schools a choice in their representativeness by appointing the new members as the bye-line designate. Half of the men chosen will be eliminated by the council, except in the School of Pharmacy where there is only one candidate.
K. U. Well Represented At Estes Park Meeting
The University is becoming noteworthy for the interest its students show in the religious organizations of the school. The University Y. M. C. A., having the worst difficulties it ever has ensured, defeated the war, had the largest delegation of students at the conference last summer at Estes Park. Forty men had promised to attend the conference before the war broke out and of those only one went, but the workers went out and secured new representatives.
Only two college professors attended and both were from Kansas. One was Prof. Arthur C. Terrill and another a professor at Otau University.
The Y. W. C. A. conference was held at Hollister, M. Again, K. U. had the largest delegation of any institution represented. There were over four hundred women in attendance at this conference. Seventeen students and two faculty women attended from the University.
Student Loan Fund Has $3000 In Its Treasury
The Student Loan Fund has to its credit $3000. All but $300 of this is loaned out. This fund, which is maintained through donations may be drawn upon by upper classmen who provide financial help to finish their education. Students are given loans for two years at four per cent interest.
The class of 1917 gave its memorial fund to the Student Loan Fund to be held in trust. This fund, which amounted to about $75.00, is to be used to erect a stone archway for the University. If the future classes, however, fail to take up the proposition of an archway, the class fund becomes a part of the Student Loan Fund.
All students were given a chance to contribute to this fund at registration. The Registrar said he did not know how much had been bledged this year but about two hundred and fifty cards were marked.
Students interested in securing the benefit of the loan fund should see M.
Kappa Phi business meeting will be held in Myers Hall Wednesday evening from 7 until 8 o'clock. It is important that every member be present.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students to go further than merely printing the news and providing a supportive university holds; to play no favorities; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be helpful; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads in all, to serve to the university; to help the students of the University.

THOSE CIGARETTES
Whether the members of Company M have a legal right to sell cigarettes to students is not the question. Nor should there be any words wasted in an effort to decide whether the Company M "canteen," situated at a point some distance from the camp, is under military or state law.
The point is that it is against public opinion and public sentiment for any person—soldier or civilian—to sell cigarettes to the youth of Kansas. That was decided upon when the state law was passed, and the support the law has received is proof that it is a wise law.
And that word "donate," by the way, brings up a tender subject. If K. U. students had responded liberally at the convocation Friday, and given Company M a fund of $500, instead of the paltry $80 that was collected, our soldier boys would not have to go into the store business to get money to buy the comforts they need.
Those K. U. men who smoke cigarettes are gentlemany enough not to raise a fuss over Chancellor Strong's ruling ordering the removal of the company canteen. And in case they feel that the operation of the canteen is necessary to enlarge the "company fund," perhaps it would be a good idea if they donated the price of three or four packages of "pills" and said nothing.
After working all summer, we will now take a couple of month's vacation before the semester examinations.
TYPHOID INOCULATIONS
Now that the alarming news comes from many Kansas towns to the effect that typhoid in its most serious form is being found, it is up to us to keep awake. Every student on the Hill is entitled to free typhoid inoculation and if each student avails himself of the opportunity, the University of Kansas will have done its share in stamping out a dreadful state-wide epidemic.
Last year, hundreds of students were given inoculation at the University Hospital; and that, more than any other thing, helped reduce the number of casualties from the disease during the epidemic in Lawrence. Students who have never been inoculated should take advantage of the free treatment given by the University medical authorities.
It doesn't cost anything, it can't hurt much, and it may do a world of good.
Why is it that you always pass the most fascinating looking co-ed when you're walking with a prof?
ABOUT COMMUNICATIONS
ABOUT COMMUNICATIONS For the first time this year, the Kansan is printing a communication from a member of the student body. Regardless of whether the communication receives the attention that it may or may not deserve, the writer had the right idea when she sent it to the Kansan for publication. Unquestionably there is room for argument as to whether women should knit in classes—and the Kansan is a good place to "have it out."
But that's not all. The Kansan is a good forum in which to have most anything discussed. Officially, the Kansan is the voice of the student body—and that voice cannot be truly representative unless members of the student body feel free to send us communications regarding anything they wish to write about.
Obviously, we can't print all that are sent in. But things that are of more than ephemeral interest we should like to see discussed in the Kansan, by members of the student body other than the Kansan staff.
Have you a grouch on a prof who holds classes overtime? That's old stuff—but it won't hurt to take a dig at the gentleman. Perhaps your communication will be the one to reform him. Don't you like the way the Chancellor conducts convocations, or the way his committees arrange the class schedule, or the manner in which his workmen trim the lawn? Write the Kansan about it—and air your views before the whole University family.
Communications of all kinds must be signed; so that those in charge here may be assured of the good faith of the writer. Names will not be used in the paper, however, unless the writer so requests.
What's your grouch? Speak up!
And so they're really going to build the rest of the Administration Building? Now if somebody could just persuade the legislature to give us a clock for Blake Hall that would really keep time!
GET ACQUAINTED
This is perhaps the busiest week and the longest week that freshmen will experience for some time. In the excitement of the day-while they rush frantically about, getting enrolled, and finding out-of-the-way classroom in strange buildings—they are probably able to forget temporarily at least, the folks back home. But there is an ache that comes later when they are alone in their rooms with just one companion or one old chum to ward off home-sickness.
Fortunately, homesickness doesn't last long. There is too much to do here—too many people to meet—too many absorbing things happening, not to soon wean the freshman away from nights of sad solitude in his room.
Freshmen ought to take advantage of every opportunity to get acquainted as rapidly as possible. They should introduce themselves to their fellow classmates—as they meet on the way down the Hill, at boarding clubs, or in the classroom. We're all members of a great big family up here—and it's up to each one of us, individually, to "get acquainted."
CAMPUS OPINION
But remember the adage: "Make acquaintances rapidly—friends slowly."
Knitting in church is now considered a patriotic duty. The preacher's oratory does not seem to meet the meantime the soldiers are clothed.
WHY KNOT KNIT?
J. L. M.
It seems unfortunate that young women attending the University of Kansas, who patriotically knit before classes, must put their kneedles into their bags at the beginning of the class session. Good knitters do not give their work a thought, as is evidenced by women who knit in the dark, or men in rapid conversation, or women and women of the faculty only put patriotism before pride, the women of the University might knit for the soldiers during class hours, except when note-taking is necessary.

The cloud of war, in short, is casting a shadow over all other interests. No one knows what is coming next, but we know that there is danger of forgetting what is present.

This tendency needs to be checked. While one remains in the University, it is fair to assume that he feels this to be his place of duty for the time and space available. He must his duty to give the best of his efforts to the tasks which are at hand.
If a man feels that his place is not there, he should leave as many of his friends.
Only by following one of these two courses can one be true to the ideals which should guide him in the present national crisis.
The rule which should guide us at all times, but more especially now, is to be prepared for the need to duty your duty to do, and to the beat of your ability.—Ohio State Lantern.
SMILING-ONE OF OUR ALLIES
Ever notice how hard it is not to return a real, genuine smile with a smile? Nothing is more contagious than smiling. It increases in geometrical progression. "When you smile, others smile, and soon there are miles and miles of smiles."
SMILING—ONE OF OUR ALLIES
The world needs "less of sighing and more of smiling," as Arthur Chapman characterizes the West in his poem, "Out where the West Becomes Music; Out where the West Becomes music; but in the race of good cheer however, smiles out-distance both.
These are critical times, but that doesn't mean a censorship has been placed on smiling. Making life more pleasant is different from frivolity. A smiling man at work is usually putting his whole heart and soul into the work and that is the way the natior should be now.
"A smile," Southey says, "is like sunshine opening, through a shower, in the vernal skies." When the world has been dark and cloud for days, it looks like a beach. Sunshine, of smiles and good cheer that break through the clouds. The United States has a big job ahead, but sullenness, gloom, frowns and silence surrounds her.
Let's work with a smile.—Daily Missourian.
Many students graduate from K. S. A. C. without ever really becoming acquainted with their Alma Mater. Many students, before and after graduation, are asked simple questions about their college which they cannot answer. This does not mean that all your college students become acquainted with your college does not mean that you are to become personally acquainted with every prof on the hill, and all his instructors and assistants. It does mean, however, that after attending one school for four years, you should be able to name the different divisions and departments of the college, the head of each, and have a general knowledge of each department. You should at least know the name of each building, what departments are located in each, and know where to locate the college museum and flour mill.

Many students never think of going to any of the buildings except those in which they have classes, and even then they confine themselves pretty largely to their class rooms.

Former Kansas Prairie Is Being Turned Into Great Field of Zinc
Modern Klondike Is East of Galena and May Extend Across Cherokee County
What was a few years ago an ordinary rolling prairie of Kansas is rapidly being turned into one of the great zinc fields of the world. It is a modern Klondike field. It lies just off of Miami, Oklah, and east of Galsbanks. It is extending across Cherokee County, past Lawton, and up to Waco, Mo.
The largest mining companies in the country have from 20,000 to 30,000 acres under lease in Cherokee county. Seventy of these companies have 1,500 chain drills prospecting. Another group has proven out by drilling. Several of these drills are in Kansas. "The Blue Mound Vinegar Hill Barr Mine and the Coronet are operating on the Kansas side of the line. The Naylor Valley land section around Waco are particularly promising for Kansas.
This is having a marked effect on the milling and mining methods in and around Joplin. It has resulted in the introduction of modern machinery and modern methods. Emphasis is being placed upon laboratory tests and upon the employment of graduates of technical schools.
This new field will mean the addition of millions of dollars to the mineral output of the state within five years.
Prof. Arthur G. Terrill spent five weeks there last summer doing field work for the Kansas State Geological Survey. He brought back boxes containing more than 200 specimens of ore and associated minerals. Some of these were in rare combination and crystal form.
The specimens are valuable for exchange purposes. Dr. W. P. Moore, the new professor of mineralogy, has arranged exchanges with Harvard and other schools. The general superintendent of the Nuevo Dino Mine of Lincolville, Okla., visited Professor Terrill last Monday and told him he was saving more specimens from the mine for the University.
The object of the work of Professor Terrill in gathering these specimens is to afford material for the publication of a preliminary bulletin on the lead and zinc deposits of Kansas.
Ignorance or Adventure?
By the Way
irglenance or Adventure?
Yes. It is true! It seems that one of the Kappas, an upperclassman at that, was the women's cloakroom of Spooner Library, engaged in the practice of powdering her nose, when in walked a man, he calmly hung his hat on a hook, turned back on the astonished girl, and walked out.
As a consequence we have now added to the lists of "donts" for Freshmen. But perhaps it wasn't a Freshman, it may have been an upperclassman in search of adventure.

To Decide Military Drill Tuesday
Whether there is to be compulsory military drill at the University this year will be decided at the next meeting of the University Senate, Tuesday afternoon.

Coach Olcott Holds Practice In Rain to Prepare For Illinois
Twenty-seven Candidates Out For Practice, But Coach Needs More
Men Have Fighting Spirit
Will Scrimmage Haskell First Clear Day—And With Tyrus Friday
Despite the fact that spectator had to wear raincoats and stand be neat umbrellas, the Kansas football players continued their regular practice. There are but ten more days in which he will play with Illinois, so Coach Beau Oleott does not want to lose any time for practice.
The largest squad of the season was out for practice yesterday, but the coach still needs more men. A total of twenty-seven candidates were on the field. This still is a small Varsity squad however. Coach Olcott and教练 W. O. Smith are fifteen or twenty more men should report immediately, if Kansas is to develop a winning team.
One of the most commendable things about the squair is the spirit and earnestness with which the candidates go into the scrummages. Many have been busied out and placed on their bodies, but they get right into the work.
Captain Sweede Nielsen has one of the worst injuries. He has a gash over his left eye. It is a bad looking cut, but it is getting along all right and likely will heal in a few days. Simon will be worked, and Gearhart, who received a scalp wound, are back in the game.
An old player out yesterday for the first time who will strengthen the team considerably, was Scrubby Laslett, who just returned to school. He is a good end and won a reserve letter in him last year. He was considered a good teammate for Earl Shrink, who won his letter last year.
The candidates now out for the practice are: Captain Nielsen, Pringle, Bunn, Dennis, Liggett, Davidson, Casey, StevenSON, Woody, Gearhart, Davis, Wilson, Hilton, Wenzel, Arnold, Markley, Ziegler, Mower, Gregory, Idol, Jones, Gorrill, Laslett, Lonberg, Simon, and Nettles.
A feature of the practice yesterday afternoon was the military drill by the squad in charge of Corporal Roy S. Robins, of Company M. After a 15-minute drill the men were given the setting up exercises and trotted around Hamilton Field once before going to the showers.
The first real scrimmage of the season will be against the Haskell Indians on Hamilton Field, the first clear afternoon. It is possible that the squad will scrimmage several times with the Haskell Indians this week. The first Varsity-freshman scrimmage will be Friday afternoon.
The freshmen also held a practice in the rain on the field north of McCook but only a few reported, and after an hour's practice Coach Jay Bond sent the men to the showers. About twenty-five candidates already have come out for the team and it is probable that a squad of thirty or forty will be practicing by the end of the week.
Recruiting Office Makes New Appeal to Students
Uncle Sam's latest plan of recruiting has caused much comment on the Hill. Because the enlistment office at 635 Massachusetts Street believed there were students on the Hill who might be interested in the army, Lieutenant Eli Dorsey of Company He was detailed to paint signs that would call to the minds of the student fighters. Lieutenant Dorsey was a member of the School of Engineering last year.
In front of the Museum, "You can be a foreign euro collector and go to Europe," at first led the passing student to believe that the faculty was sending students to Europe to collect specimens for the Dyche Museum. And then the word "Enlist" told another story.
There was a bit of iron in the sign, "Uncle Sam will furnish your fall suit free," but the humor was equal to that of the sign that appeared on the walk in front of the Chemistry Building, "German gas fumes will make K. U. chemists feel at home."
Our peach ice cream is made from the fruit. Try it, at Wiedemann's.— Adv.

Students Asked To Keep Campus Free From Paper
"The fall crop of red, green, and blue tobacco cans is thriving," says Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith, a member of committees on buildings and grounds. "Also, the automobiles, apparently of their own volition, are keeping the grass well down along the parkings."
Professor Goldsmith considers the work already done in beautifying the campus a good start, but urges greater co-operation on the part of the students in keeping the grounds free from papers and liter. A landscape gardner was employed last year to set out trees and shrubs, and this work probably will be continued. The committee is considering paving the campus drives, and putting in curbs and gutters. An appropriation of $3,500 has been allowed for campus upkeep and improvement.
At last the paymaster is due to arrive, and the Company M boys are rejoicing. They have had no money since the beginning of their camp here, and so, many feel handicapped in a financial way.
Company M Notes.
Seth Owens and Jim Snyder, have been promoted to buglers, taking the place of Ewart Plank, who was made sergeant, and Leonard Aker.
Again the rain forces the men to an enjoyable vacation. Captain F. E. Jones says the men now are drilled well enough, that a little more work is needed on sufficient polish to make a good show at the Ft. St. Cantonment.
Private Horn, who broke his ankle last week while playing basket-ball, is in the army hospital at Leavenworth. As the break is quite bad, it will be some time before he can be around again.
The formal "discharge" blanks were received yesterday. The men were transferred from the Kansas National Guard to the Federalized National Guard.
A few men have been taking their last lurfough before starting to Ft. Sill. Captain Jones has been lenient about this matter, and all the men appreciate it.
The University men will get at least two more meals cooked under
the supervision of "Brick." He is to prepare enough non-persianable food to last the "hungry heathen" two mess-calls on the train.
M. E. VesperSundays
The K. U. Methodist League started its weekly vespers last Sunday and, if the first meeting may be taken as a sign of the idea is going to work, there were nearly two inherited college people present at Myers Hall. Chancellor Strong spoke in an informal, intimate way, putting a few of the big problems of the day plainly before his audience. Good music was furnished by a vested quartet—a feature that will continue at all of the meetings. Next Sunday the vesper meeting will be addressed by Dean F. J. Kelly, of the department of education.
From the comment of several prominent freshmen on the Hill it is probable that few frosh will appear this year without their inherited caps. This sentiment is not all due to class patriotism on the part of the frosh, it appears, as some are quite doubtful if the Senate ruling will "stay the rod" when they leave the campus.
Freshmen are Willing To Wear Little Caps
There also are rumors among the yearlings that the "Laws" have various effective ways of punishment for failure to appear properly rigged, which are not affected by the Senate's ruling. How many good boys can not be estimated, but few freshmen are going to take chances.
While most yearlings probably will govern themselves by what might happen if they neglect their' caps, many are followers of tradition and will do as their fathers did when they were in school and as their fathers instructed them to do when they left home.

County Club Union To Campaign for Votes for Permanent Income Bill
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS THURSDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 27, 1917.
Bill Passed By Last Legislature Will Be Voted On In 1919
Union Will Organize Help
Students Must Help To Assum Success of the Eec-
Active work on the Permanent Income bill which passed the state legislature last winter which is to be voted on at the state election in 1919 and will be held by the Gladstone, president of the County Club Union and of the state County Club Council will call a meeting at that time to elect officers of the union. Practically all of last year's graduates had left the University.
Last fall, the County Club Union built up such a strong organization, with nearly every county in the state represented, that the work of getting the Income Bill through the Senate, and finally through the House was implemented in the face of just as much opposition as it met the year before.
After the first three weeks that the income bill had been before the legislature, Topeka papers gave the bill up as lost, but not so with Wilford Johnson. At the time, a Union, who spent many werey hours at Topeka while still keeping up his work here. At last his persistence bore fruit and the bill was passed.
By means of a state organization which Glasse, as president of the K. U. County Club Union, formed at Christmas time, the work for the passage of the bill was pushed at all state educational institutions. In this way all schools to be affected by appropriation were given an interest in the amendment and took more of an active part in the campaign than ever before.
The Income Bill which was brought before the state legislature for the second time last winter, is briefly an amendment to the Kansas constitution. By means of this amendment, the state educational institutions of higher learning are able to make needed improvements in an easier manner than under the present slow system of the state legislature having to vote on every appropriation.
**STUDENTS MUST HELP**
A stable and always available fund for the running of these institutions is provided for in the amendment. Athletics has been known more than a couple of years in advance just how much money it was to have to pull through the school year on.
The alumni of K. U. are strongly behind the movement and at the meeting of the State Board of Administration in Lawrence, Monday, action is expected to be taken to place the merits of the amendment before the people of the state before election, barely two years away. Alumni of other state schools are expected to boost the amendment.
"Much work must be done by students here at the University between now and the next election if the bill is to be voted upon favorably," said Mr. Glasco, this morning. "One can readily see what a huge task is before both of us, the Club Union, and all men and women in state schools of the state, when the great size of the state is considered. To really be successful, every citizen must be reached and told the merits of the amendment."
Flags to Fly For Soldiers
Service flags will soon be flying in front of many of the fraternity houses and homes in Lawrence. The flag is red with a white center and the stars in the center denote the number of men in service from each department. Making an account is making the flags in two sizes, one for the homes and one for the business houses.
Miss Moody Takes Vacation
Miss Minnie Moody, secretary to the Chancellor, is in Wellington today, where she has gone for a vacation of two weeks. She has taken care of the work through the big office on the bill all summer without a halt.
The University Band will rehearse Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock in Fraser Chapel. Those who were assigned places in the line-up but were not present Wednesday night at rehearsal sessions on Saturday behaural, or their places will be tiled at once.
J. C. McCanles, Director.

Kansas Students Asked
To Help Out Second Loan
Students may be asked to take a part in furthering the war to a successful conclusion by subscribing to the new Liberty Loan Bonds in 2014. The new issue of the bonds will contain some as low as $5. These can be bought for $10, and at their maturity in five years with interest at the rate of 6% per annum.
The big drive during this new issue will be made upon the little fellow, instead of letting the rich class do it. It was pointed out that John D. Rockefeller did not have the money to pay for the bonds and had to borrow the money until he received dividends from his various stocks.
Kansan Board Changes Eligibility Requirement Will Admit Yearlings
Students In Other Schools Who Show Ability May Be Elected to Board
A competitive try-out, open to students in any school of the University, to fill positions on the Kansan Board was decided upon at the regular meeting of the board last night. The candidates are stepping to make the new position as the best University as possible, and to fortune this policy it was decided to allow any student who wished the benefit of newspaper work whether enrolled in the department or not, to do actual reporting on the Kansan. This could be filled at the semi-annual election January 17, and it behooves all ambitious writers to get into the reporting work and show the news editor and the Kansan Board that they have ability in newspaper work. The board will be made on a competitive basis of work done on the Kansan basis.
For several years the honor of membership to the board was limited to juniors and seniors. These restrictions have now been removed, but the open is open to anyone who demonstrates that he has a "nose for news."
The Kanas Board went on record as favoring compulsory military drill with credit for freshmen and sophomores and voluntary drill with credit for upperclassmen. In the present national crisis, it was argued, military drill might well replace compulsory gymnasium exercise, thus fitting students for active service in the war if called.
The present editors of the Kansan were re-elected to continue their duties for two weeks. It is customary for Kansan editors to hold their places for one month, but it was thought advisable not to change the executive staff of the paper just at the beginning of the school year.
K. U. Head Appointed On State Food Board
Herbert Hoover Gives Chancel lor Strong Place on Executive Committee
The following telegram was received by Chancellor Frank Strong this morning, from Herbert Hoover, national food administrator:
Washington, D. C.,
Upon nomination of H. J. Waters, federal food administrator of Kansas, I take pleasure to appoint you a member of the state campaign executive committee on food conservation earnest hope that you will serve.
Chancellor Strong immediately wired acceptance, and now holds one of the most important positions in regard to the food problem in Kansas. The committee mentioned in the telegram, works as an assistant to H. J. Waters, the student who administers the job, but no definite work appointed for the body as yet, but instructions from Herbert Hoover are expected at once.

"Mr. MacMillen is even better known than Mr. Spalding." said Dean Butler, "although this will be his first appearance in Lawrence. He was born in New York and lived in this country and in Europe, and has made repeated recital tours. Mr. MacMillen will bring with him Mr. Andre Benoist, one of the most noted accompanists."
Plan Farewell Dance And Chicken Pie Dinner For Company M Friday
Department of Home Economic Will Manage Party Tomorrow Night
One More Home "Dinner"
Students Will Give Boys Send Off At Santa Fe Station Sunday
The University students will be at the Santa Fe railroad station in a body early Sunday morning to give Company M a send off when the boys entrain for Ft. St. Okla. Although the exact hour the train will leave Lawrence is not known it is expected that time between six and eight o'clock.
Preparations for Company M's farewell dance and chicken pie dinner which will be given tomorrow night, were being completed today. The home economics department, which was responsible for tomorrow evening, sent out a call for donations of chickens today. Sixty pounds of chickens are needed to feed 150 soldiers, according to the figures of the head of the home economics department. So far the department has received a donation of a pound of chicken.
The officers in charge of the company had not received definite orders at a late hour today in regard to the entrainment. However, members of the company were busy packing books and other belongings which were scattered throughout the University gymnasium.
SIXTY CHICKENS NEEDED
The members of Company M, which have made the University campus their homes since August 5, will not regret much the order for breaking camp, which is expected to be received some time Saturday. Most of the members of the company are still week and a anxious to go to Ft. Pt. Sill where they expect to receive their first pay check.
Although the University authorities had no definite news as to when the Company M would leave Lawrence, they urged all students to keep within close touch with the company and to pass the word around when defiance is made. The company was made to give the students a half holiday if the company left during the week. Now that it is thought that the company will leave Sunday morning, June 13, there is to urge the students to be down to the train to see the soldiers off.
STUDENTS TO SEE SOLDIERS LEAVE
Kansas Student Called To National Army Ranks
Called from classroom to become a member of Uncle Sam's new army was the thrill experienced this morning by Thomas L. Crawford, c19, a student in journalism when he re-commissioned a board of Shawnee County, summoning him to appear for examination His home is in Topeka.
Under average conditions in his home county Crawford would not have been called until the second draft but Shawnee County holds the high record in the state for exemptions. The quota is about one hand and a few times that summer have been called, and the allotment is not filled vet.
Crawford has applied for musical work with the army Y. M, C. A, but has heard nothing from his application. It probably is too late now to receive an appointment as service in the army will take precedence.
The enrollment of the night class in debating under Howard T. Hill, assistant professor in the department of public speaking, is increasing daily. The class, which is open to both men and women, will start next week, the exact time to be announced later. Mr. Hill wishes to work his class into a club or organization similar to the Dramatic Club.
Tom is a member of the Sigma Nu fraternity and is well known on the Hill for his ability to pound out music on the piano. He is a composer of no mean ability. Last spring he published, "That's Not Enough for Me," "Bone Dry Blues" is in the hands of the publishers now while, "Farewell But Not Goodbye," a waltz is nearing completion.
To Hold Night Class
University Club Entertains
The University Club will hold an informa-
tion event at eight o'clock at their club house to receive all new members of the faculty and all "new comers" intimately concerned with the welfare of the old and new members in occasion as for the old and new members' faculty to get acquainted.

Mrs. Brown and Council Heads Announce Rules Of Student Regulation
Open Dances On Black List
Dancing Permit Rule Will Be Observed Strictly This Year
Only Parties Given By Men's Council May Be Labeled "Varsity"
So many new students and freshmen are in the University this year that Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, and the two presidents of the Men and Women's councils, decided to inform the students of the rules of respect and responsibility in organizational and especially in regard to dances.
Last year there were many violations of these rules and, in order to save students the embarrassment of being called before the Student Disciplinary Committee, the following regulations are published:
I. No student or group of students may give a dance during a session of the University until written permission is obtained from the Committee on Student Interests.
II. Permission will be granted after application to the Chairman of the Committee on Student Interests, and after satisfying the Committee that the following regulations will be observed:
(1) All dancing parties must be properly chaperoned and the names of the chaperons given to the Adviser prior to the dance. There will be days before the dance is to be given.
(2) During a regular session of the University no student or group of students may give or attend a dancing party in Lawrence, which is thrown open to the public indiscriminately at a fixed price.
III. Dancing parties may be given only on Friday and Saturday nights or on nights immediately preceding a school holiday. All dancing parties must close at 12 o'clock, excepting the Junior Prom, Sophomore Hop, Law Scrim, and the so-called formals designated for or designated by the Committee on Student Interests, which shall close at 2 o'clock.
A dancing party is understood to be a dance (1) in the morning; or (2) in the afternoon; or (3) in the even-

N. A. A. Board Plans For This Year's Work
At the first meeting of the Women's Athletic Association board yesterday, plans were made to launch a membership campaign next week. All women in the University are eligible for membership in the association and it is expected that the membership will reach at least 600.
The tennis tournament will be held during October. Those desiring to enter must sign up with Miss Hazel Deiss, in Reinhard Gymnasium. Two teams and a team will be run for first time in the history of the University. Hockey is one of the most popular of sports in many of the Eastern schools. Basketball practice will follow hockey. According to the official schedule, the senior class has simplified their orientation of coming out. The swimming pool has been crowded for the last week and many entries have been made for the swimming tournament. Women competing in athletics at the University Memorial cards admit all women's athletic events during the year. Election of officers for this year will be held in November.
Scott Chosen New Head Of College of Emporia
Charles F. Scott of Iola, a member of the board of the College of Emporia, has been elected temporary president to fill the place of Dr. H. C. Culbertson, resigned. Mr. Scott accepted the appointment as president only upon condition that a permanent president should be selected at the earliest possible date, and also with the understanding that his competencies, be a candidate for the permanent position. Mr. Scott never has served as the head of a college, but has been connected with school work for many years. He received his B. S. degree from the University of Kansas in 1880.
Dr. Culbertson offered his resignation that he might give his entire time to his new work as chief of the bureau of cooperative organization of the food administration. The change will become effective October 15.

Military Training In Colleges Gets Boost
The necessity of inaugurating a course in military training at the University appears all the more necessary when the plans of the war department for the third training camp have been announced. No more student officers will be chosen from civilians but instead ninety per cent of these will be selected from the enlisted ranks of the army, the national guard and the regular army. The other ten per cent will be drawn from colleges which have courses of military instruction. The changes in the plans were for the purpose of giving a drafted man the chance to win a commission.
Plain Tales From The Hill
Prof. E. M. Hopkins of the department of English, has a series of rules he is going to print on how to say "Hello," without saying "Hello," on this Hill.
Needless to say, the use of Hello so much has grown tiresome to Professor Hopkins and oftimes he is tempted to make them another form of greeting is used.
They do say he is writing another set of rules for his theme table cover which will include forms of greetings and other forms to get the students other than the trite Hello.
Comes now the freshman engineer with the bright thought of putting an endless stairway up the Fourteenth street hill just like they have in some of the department stores in the city.
And the sophomore journalists thought of this last year in their theses on a tunnel or some other means of access to the Hill.

First Football Rally For Illinois Game Oct.5 Cheerleader Announces
Freshmen to Wear Caps On Day of Normal Game
Uncle Jimmy Is Optimistic
Rusty Friend Plans More Work For The Thundering Thousand
Rusty believes no football team can go through a successful season unless the rooters show they are back of it, and he proposes to organize his cohorts into such a lively and peppery bunch that the team will feel fighting Nebraska. Oklahoma, Missouri and the others to a stand-tall.
Cheerleader Rusty Friend is busy mapping out a program for the 1917 campaign of the Thundering Thousand; while Coach Herman Olcott is busy every afternoon on Hamilton Field, whipping his blue-clad warrior into shape for the first contest of the U. U. football season with Illinois.
"What we want," the cheerleader said this morning, "is a rooting section of the type of fellows who went to Lincoln last fall and literally drowned out the big Nebraska crowd with their cheers. With that gang helping the eleven, we'll whip every team in the valley."
"Coach Hamilton tells me prospects are good for a Jayhawker football team this fall, in spite of many of last year's stars leaving to serve their country," said Uncle Jimmy Green, dean of K. U. football, following a short talk with the manager of University athletics.
"There's Frost, Pringle, Scruby Laslett, Shinn, Rubn, Gorrill, Captain Nielsen, Nettles, Doc Marquis, Woody, Hull, and Lonborg, all men of the Varsity or comers in the Varsity game," Hamilton said. "Then Liggert, Idol, Mandeville, and Jones seem to be promising men from the Varsity team, but there are possibly Miner and Martin are expected to return to try for the team."
At convocation October 5, "Rock Chalk" and other yellers will be given, while the "Crismon and the Blue" will be sung. The team will leave for Urbana, Illinois that night at eight-forty o'clock and Friend plans to give the boys a big送笛one—that will make them fight for their lives against Zuppke's big Western Conference eleven.
He wants every student on the Hill to be on the Santa Fe platform at eight o'clock October 5, and join in the noise-making. He wants the old Jayhawker spirit to show itself there and keep on showing itself until the Tiger's tail is twisted on Thanksgiving Day.
The first night rally of the season will be October 12, before the Normal game. The freshmen will have a chance to display their little caps the next morning, when they play against South Carolina with the band, all the available automobiles and the Normal and K. U. football squads, to march to McCook Field.
That same evening, the big nighthirt parade will form in front of Fraser Hall and, headed by the University band, will march past Brick Street and celebrate the first home victory of the men of Olcott.
"I want every man and woman in the University to show their loyalty and co-operate with me in making this year a red letter year in the history," he said. The leader said in summing up his plans. Kansas football prospects took a boom this morning when Stem Foster, the Varsity quarterback last year, arrived at the University to enroll. He wore a big smile and said he would out for the team. He will be out in this afternoon on Hamilton Field.
Season athletic tickets for this year probably will not be ready for sale until October 5. The order for the tickets has been in for several weeks, according to Hamilton. They are expected from the printer any day.
Season Athletic Tickets

There will be just as many attractions as there were last year, forty, including four at-home football games. The price will be the same, $5.
Orchestra Tryouts Tonight
University orchestra practice will be held at 7:30 o'clock in front of Fraser Chapel, under the direction of Prof. F. E. Kendrie. This is the first all students who play orchestral instruments are invited to try on tonight.

BACK ON THE JOB
And now comes the announcement that Jay Bond, member of the all-victorious eleven of 1908 and for three years assistant Varsity coach, is to come back to his old job this year and coach the freshmen.
Three cheers! And congratulations, Jay!
We knew you wouldn't like business life well enough to forever forsake the call of the pigskin. You've got too much fight in your make-up, too much ginger and enthusiasm spirit, too much of a love for the success of K. U. teams, not to come back to the University in her time of need.
TO HONOR HIM
Medical fraternity notice: "Vivsection meeting tonight in lecture room. Come dressed to kill."
We know that the Varsity this year, and future Varsitys, will be better because you are down there on McCook to teach the tyros.
Are we going to allow this opportunity to pass?
The plan to erect a tablet in memory of Lieut. W, T. Fitzsimons, the K. U. graduate who was the first American to die in active service for America in the present war, seems to have everybody in its favor and nobody to push it through.
Chancellor Strong, Registrar Foster, Alumni Secretary Agnes Thompson, all have expressed their opinion that a memorial tablet ought to be purchased and placed either here or at Rosedale.
But the pian lacks completion—and the idea will never materialize unless someone with the proper authority takes hold of it.
Not every who looks in a mirror has sufficient cause for reflection.
WHERE IS IT?
Last year Chancellor Strong announced—and the announcement was greeted with favor everywhere—that a course of instruction in the history of the University was to be given all freshmen. First year students were to be taught not only the history of the school and of a few of the many great men who have graduated from this institution, but they were also to be told of the ideals which the University holds, and of what it expects of the students who come here. One hour's credit was to be given for the course, and it was to be required of every first year student—as are Gym and Hygiene.
It is lamentable that the plan has not been carried out. One reason why students become disloyal to the University is because they are not taught something about it while they are here. If they were led to understand and appreciate the struggles through which the institution has passed; were thoroughly imbued with the ideals for which the University stands; and were taught to
have some regard for the problems of the institution while they are in school, we should have no such thing as disqualy graduates in the state legislature voting to reduce the University's appropriation.
Is it too late to introduce the course?
Swimming is unquestionably the University's cleanest sport.
THEY'RE SPEED FIENDS!
Walter Havekorst and Registrar George O. Foster, who have had their heads together for several days in conference over the graft situation, are getting things done—in a hurry. Not only are they going to eliminate graft by checking up minutely all receipts and expenditures; but it is rumored that Registrar Foster now has a plan to deprive student managers of their an adequate salary for their work.
Such a plan would be a team effort to student activities on the Hill. There isn't the same amount or kind of honor in putting on a Junior Prom that there is in being captain of the University's football team—and every student knows it. There is real glory in being a college athlete; in being bearded by thousands of rooters; in being petted and looked after and taken on trips to distant schools, there to meet and conquer the foe. But is there any such glory in putting on a Junior Prom or managing a student publication or staging a dramatic club play? There is not! There is work—and work only—and often no thanks for one's efforts. Two years ago after one of the biggest parties of the school year, five hundred guests at the Junior Prom brushed by the Prom managers on their way out of the gym, after they had had the time of their lives for seven hours—and not one of them thought to stop and thank the managers who had so successfully given the party.
The one reason why capable students go after the management of student activities is because they have a chance to make something for themselves if they successfully perform the duties of their office. And they have a right to expect a legitimate return for the amount of time, energy, and brains they put into the enterprise.
The Kansan hates graft-rotten graft. It hates the graft of graft that pays a student manager out of all proportion to what he really earns. But it does not believe that a capable class of students will be attracted to office if those offices are put on a strictly "honor" basis. The sacrifices necessary to perform capably the duties of a big student office are too great.
The student council and the University authorities should think the matter over a long, long time before they decide to take away all compensation for student managers.
In the youthful years of secondary school life the boy wants to head the pennant winner of one of the great baseball leagues; in college he wants to head his college paper, or perhaps his aspirations may be otherwise. As his college years come to an end, he wants to realize that life is a tough proposition and that if he makes a decent living for himself and family he will be doing all that he could be reasonably called upon to do.
OTHER OPINIONS
The call of leadership that found its way in the wellspring of youth still calls, and it is only for the college man to open his mind and look in the great beyond, the future that holds the treasure of achievement in the vision the vision will strengthen both, add to experience, and quicken lecision.
GREATER VISION
It is the right of superior choice that you must use to forge ahead in the battles of life. You are not held down by the shackles of wealth or political tyranny. Education is practically free and if you want to build a leadership as you used to in the days of boyhood, it devolves upon you and you alone to step 'back again into the spirit of the days that are gone, to dream and to cast your vision into the structures of reality—Daily Iowan.

Mrs. Eustace Brown's first tea for freshmen women is announced for Friday from 3:30 to 5 p. m. in Fraser Hall. The tea will be strictly informal. "We want the girls to drop in just as they come from classes," says Mrs. Brown, "and party dresses will not be required." Refreshments will be served by upperclassmen.
Lawrence Palmer, college junior, is storekeeper in the Chemistry 1 laboratory.
Josephine Martin: Last week when the sun was shining I was sorry I wasn't going to be back in school this year. This week I've been glad I don't have to trot up the Hill in the rain.
Walter Havelorsst: You bet, the freshmen will have to wear caps! And they're going to begin before the freshman class election, too—so the sophs and juniors and seniors won't be making mistakes and asking the freshmen to vote at the upperclassmen polls.
WHAT THEY SAY
The Campus Pote: Now always when I'm dancing with a brunette or a blond, who reaches just a bit above my chin; if I try to be agreeable and ope'm mouth to speak, I find some wand'ring curl has drifted in. I'm sick to death of Herpicide and other toes—too Pearls', Packers' Tar, and so on. You're forever fore each dance that girls should spend some time, in sugar-coating each and every hair. How happy then would be the lot of all the six-foot men, if coat their hair the lady really did. We wouldn't even besiestate, but chew hair all the time—for every girl would be a candy kid.
Prof. W. W. Davis: One of the bad things that may result from the war is that each country involved may attempt to throw aside its dependence and be sufficient unto itself. What did Columbus convey to you about that Columbus discovered America by accident. Read about Marco Polo, and consult one of the following texts. Look up—distinguish between a book or source books straughts—trade routes. I expect no student to go to sleep in this class!
just ten more days left in which to prepare for the Illinois game.

Bee Industry Hums On Mount Oread; Shortage Of Sugar To Be Helped
Prof. S. J. Hunter Has Mode Apiary on Campus to Cut H. C. L.
S. J. Hunter, professor of entomology, is proving himself a thorough disciple of Hoover through his experiments with bee-raising by which he not only furthers the sugar industry but incidentally does some gardening and opens up another field for woman's activity.
Last spring the state department of agriculture requested the entomology department of the University to advance the science of bee-keeping because of the extreme shortage of sugar in the United States.
In accordance with the request a model bee house 24 by 14 feet has been erected just back of the Gymnasium, with all the aparatus necessary both for the production of honey and the study of pollination. To the right of this house are 39 white hives filled with industrious bees of different strains, wild bees, Italian bees and many other varieties. The purpose of this work is two-fold, first, to show students how to manage bees and thus carry on a profitable as well as pleasant industry and, second, to ensure that this time of sugar shortage what is necessary for the keeping of a model bee yard.
The experiment is supposed to be self-supporting, the money obtained from the sale of honey being used to pay the expenses of caring for the bees. Whether this will be the case this year is a problem not yet solved as, owing to high costs in summer May there is an extreme shortage of honey not only in Kansas but all over the United States. Professor Hunter, who motored through California last summer and visited the principal bee-keeping regions of that state says that bee-experts in California predict only one-third of the annual production of the department will feel fortunate if it is able to make enough from the honey to keep the colony over the winter.
The department of entomology, not content with merely aiding in the production of sugar is assisting Mr. Hoover in yet another way. Between each row of hives is a small tract of ground which must be kept in greenhouse space and garden gardens are planted containing tomatoes, turnips, peas and beans.
Another economy is being practiced in making combs for the bees for while bees are capable of making their own combs it takes 24 pounds of their honey to make one pound of wax. The same combs are used over and over again, the honey being used as an automatic extractor. Part of the extracted honey is stored and saved to feed the bees during the winter.
An interesting feature of the campaign against flies is also evident in the little white bee-house. A pet frog makes his home there and pays board and rent by eating all inquisitive and obnoxious insects.
A course in bee-keeping is being offered next term and unless all signs fall it will be taken up by a great number of students, not only men but also by the women of the University. It has been estimated that by keeping one hundred bees and a hundred and fifty dollars a year and work only during the bee months of May and September.

Rain Hinders Football Practice With Biggest Game of Year Nearing
Illinois
Crippled List Grows as Team Is Whipped In Shape For
Two days of rain have held up real scrimmage work which the K. U. football should be getting right now in preparation for the Illinois game barely a week and a half away. In spite of the cold, rainy weather and soft turf, there has been a squall over earlier afternoon. The men have been working out on the University campus south of Hamilton Field.
Two men are on the crippled list, Doc Marquis, the plucky Drake man who has been trying for the quarter position, had to place his arm in a sling Monday night after practice, and he will be unable to wear it tomorrow. He pulled the ligaments and tendons loose near the shoulder of his right arm as he crashed into a play Monday. He continued to run the team and the incident went unnoticed until he went to the showers. It is an extremely painful experience. He kept up with the signals from the sidelines yesterday and Tuesday.
The other man, Lonborg, bruised his army early in the week but he has been able to play in spite of his handicap. Many of the football fans who saw him play last season called him the best player the freshmen had in their line-up. He is playing at end along with Ziegler. The other two ends are playing good in Pickleball. In lashick Shinn both made some rather sensational plays in gathering in onward films in practice yesterday.
Men who have watched the men work practically every day, believe that Scrubby Laslett is playing better ball than last season and that he will make a teammate for Shim. Yesterday's practice was the second one he has been in since he returned to school.
Nettles, at right tackle, has a badly bruised head, along with several other players on the squad. Gregory, a man who tried for the team last year, was out last night at one of the tackles. He also played quarters used, and Bunn especially appeared to get the signals off right. Every night after a short drill by Roy Robbins, corporal in Company M, Captain Nielsen halts the men and dismisses them. He may do most of his work with the leew者. Two times around the field completes the strenuous work every day.
Nine Aggie Letter Men To Battle Baker Eleven
Nine Aggie letter men and several promising members of the 1916 freshman squad are expected to take part in the first football contest of the season on the Aggie grounds at Manhattan Saturday, when the Baker University eleven will meet the Aggies. All aspirants for places on the team will be tried out in the course of the game.
Roda, center, joined the team this week, and "Pete" Ptacek, tackle and guard, is expected October 6, a week before the Missouri-Argie game. "Stiff" Randels, captain, and all-Missouri valley end of last year, will ground gainer this fall. Harwood at full, while not as heavy as "Eddie" Wells, star fullback of the 1916 team, is fast and he is counted on for stellar work.
SPORT BEAMS
Coach Jay Bond wants a man who can kick to try out for the freshman team—one who can kick a ball 80 yards long and twenty yards wide.
In the infantry drills hold after every football practice. Hull acts as front guide, with Lonberg at the other end of the line.
In catching one of the long passes in the practice yesterday afternoon, Shim nearly fell into the creek which meanders through the campus.
K. U, will miss the services of a mighty good player when Roy Robbins leaves for Fort Sill as a corporal in Company M.
Y. M. Club Changes Name
The Y. M. club at 941 Indiana street has changed its name to Acomas in order to avoid confusion with the University Y. M. C. A, and the city Y. M. C. A. Membership in the Y. M. C. A. is a requirement of Acomas, although the club has no official connection with the Y. M. C. A. Contrary to the opinion of some, Acomas has not been organized as a local fraternity.
Mrs. Brown and Council Heads Announce Rules
(Continued from page 1)
ing, if it continues until after 8 p.m.
Additional amendments to these regulations are:
(Passed by the University Senate November 8, 1916) :
1. That no school be allowed to give more than two dances during the school year, except upon permission of the Men's Student Council.
2. That no organization, student, or group of students, except the Men's Student Council, be allowed to give what is commonly known as a 'fair dance' (i.e., to which the student body is admitted at a fixed price).
3. That the profits derived from these dances be used for the benefit of the school at large. The particularty of students attending the student body at the spring election.
4. None of these resolutions to be construed as interfering with the final authority vested in Mrs. Brown, under the present system.
Mrs. Eustace Brown,
Adviser of Women.
TO BE MORE STRICT
Mrs. Brown intends to enforce the requirement this year that the chaperon's name for any social event must be in the hands of the adviser of women three days before the dance is given. This is mere courtesy to the people who have filed their names as available to chaperon the dances.
Students not only are forbidden to give a dancing party in Lawrence, which is thrown open to the public indiscriminately at a fixed price but they are also forbidden to attend these dances. The violation of this rule was used by students to be called before the Disciplinary Committee and punished.
The University authorizes the dances, which are given, and it is not safe to attend those which are not, according to Mrs. Brown. The dance for the benefit of the soldiers of Company M, which is to be given in the Gym on Friday night, has been authorized because there are many students in the company. The term "Varsity Dance" can not be applied to any dance except one allowed by the Men's Student Council.

K. U. Soldiers Start First Move In Drive On Hindenburg's Line
Company M Will Break Camp Tomorrow and Entrain For Oklahoma
Men Are In Good Condition
Have Had Fine Training Under Captain Jones, Who Attended War College
Sometimes Sunday, Company M, the official K. U. national guard unit which will represent the University on the firing line in Europe, will quietly camp and leave for its camp in Oklahoma. Orders that the U.S. Army gave in the fields of the officers of the company for more than a week.
For nearly a month the men—most of them University students—have been encamped in Robinson Gymnasium. Since registration time they have been encamped in tents north of the gym.
PARE FOOK UP! The guardmen will take down their tents and the men will sleep in the gymnasium prepared to move to the railroad station at the specified time. The men will carry specially prepared food for two meals and rations for four days, because the men may have to provide themselves for the first three days after reaching camp. The supply company of the First Infantry Company will arrive in the Oklahoma camp a day ahead of time to prepare for the hungry men.
Barrack bags and all heavy paraphernalia will be packed in baggage cars before Sunday and as soon as the men climb aboard, the train will be ready to move on the first stretch of the journey to the ultimate camp in France. The men are short of tents, cots, packs, guns, and even backpacks, but expect to get those articles as soon as they arrive at their southern camp.
The men excepting the officers will travel in day coaches for the trip probably will be made in twenty-four hours.
ARE WELL TRAINED
Member of the company probably are as well prepared for actual fighting as any other Kansas unit because they have had benefit of Capt. F. E. Jone's teaching for the past month. Captain Jones was at the War College in Washington for three weeks' of training in trench warfare during July. He worked under the direction of French, English and Belgian officers who had seen actual fighting in Europe.
The men have been taught the use of hand grenades and have become proficient in hitting the 4-foot targets used. Bayonetting and trench digging has been part of the training and the men will have a great advantage over other Kansas guard troops. New physical exercises and semaphore drill also have had a part in the work.
Captain Jones reports the men in excellent condition after returning last night from Salina where he made arrangements to combine his duties with those of Captains of the Second Kansas Infantry. Captain Jones will be in command of the two companies which will number nearly 250 men. The lieutenants will outrank those in the University company and their officers would be equally divided.
OTHER LAWRENCE UNITS GO
With Company M will go three other Lawrence First Kansas Infantry companies. They are Company H, the hequeens' company, Company D, the detachments regiment. Battery B of the First Kansas Field artillery regiment will leave the following day.
Three officers and 122 men are members of the K. U. company. Four are on detached service, two are at the second training camp at Fort Sheridan, ill, two are up for discharge, and one is in the post. With these men would be an enlistment of 129 men.
Company M was organized in April, 1910. At the time of its organization it was made up mostly of K. U. students and they have generally constituted the company since. Lucius Hays, one of the charter members is still a member. He is now a sergeant.
Captain Jones joined the unit two years after it was organized, when it had a membership of about sixty men. The company has always made the University campus and Robinson gymnasium its home.
The regular meeting of the Chancellor's cabinet was held yesterday afternoon in the office of Chancellor Otto von Bismarck, who led the business of the cabinet was discussed
Freshmen Given Physical Examinations This Week
Except for a few typhoid inoculations the University Hospital is occupied this week chiefly with the work of the physical examination of the freshmen. Yesterday 160 freshmen men were examined. The work while carried on under the direction of the Health Department was done at the hospital. Freshmen women will be examined sometime next week.
The assumption of this work by the University Health Service indicates the growing importance of that institution in the University, since this formerly was carried out by the department of physical education. Experimental evidence for the revision of Dr. John Sundwall, head of the University Health Service.
These student doctors from the Bell Memorial Hospital at Rosdale are helping with the examination; F. P, Ewald, L. R. Hazzard, W. A. Oeeschi, L. B. Gloyne and O. C. Chapman.
Glee Club Meets Tuesday Tryouts At Rehearsal
Dean Butler Wants Strong Organization—Club Needs New Material
Kansas is going to have a glee club worth while this year. At a meeting of the former members of the club at the School of Fine Arts last night, it was decided to keep the club under the control of the School of Fine Arts presented plans for the meeting last night and offered plans for the year.
In part he said, "I want a fine gice club and I'm willing to help out in any way. It is up to you fellows here to get enthusiasm aroused in the University. Remember that anyone is eligible to try out at rehearsals, so get after the Laws, Engineers, Pharmics, and Medics.
"If a man has a good voice, nab him by the coat collar and make him come to rehearsal. A successful glee club is the result of the co-operation of students in a club whether he can sing or not. If a man cannot sing, then it is duty to get his friend, who can sing, to try out for the club. Another thing I want you fellows to understand is that there will be no favoritism against students who play for the club. A man will make the club through his ability alone.
"It is the duty of every good singer in the University to try out for the glee club, just as it is the duty of some players to try out for the athletic teams."
The first rehearsal has been set for Tuesday night at 7:30 o'clock at the School of Fine Arts. A director for the club will be selected this week.
Dean Kelly Will Speak At Myers Hall Sunday
Dean Frederick J. Kelly, of the School of Education at the University, will be the speaker at the Vesper Services to be held at 4:30 o'clock in Myers Hall Sunday afternoon. Chancellor Frank Strong gave the address last Sunday, when more than 200 students were present.
K. U. Enrolls Foreign Students The enrollment of the University is no longer confined to Kansas and neighboring states. Two students from the illinois Island, one a former african, one a central America are enrolled. Texas and New Mexico are each represented by three students and the District of Columbia, New Jersey, Washington and California by one each.
The Vesper Services are being given by the students and University pastor of the Methodist Church, and are open to everyone. Gordon Gardin will be the pastor, said this morning that the Vesper Services promise to be a great success.
No Coasting place for this year "No coasting place will be erected this year due to the lack of funds," according to the Shea superintendent of buildings and grounds. Owing to numerous accidents on Lawrence streets, a city ordinance was passed forbidding coasting within the city limits. Then the building of a concrete slide on the campus was suggested. The idea has been much talked of the past two years.
No Coasting Place For This Year
Willard Hilton, candidate for the quarterback position on the Varsity squad, was injured yesterday after-ternoon when someone kicked him in the back of the head in blocking practice. He was forced to go to the shed but was back into the practice after an hour's rest.
A Daily Letter Home—The Daily Kansas.
The University will be asked to do her share next week toward raising a fund with which to buy books for army cantonment libraries. The campaign here will be only a part of the national campaign which has been going on for a week, and which is endorsed by President Wilson, approved by the war department, and urged by Governor Capper.
Books For Our Soldiers
An even hundred dollars is the amount which Miss Carrie Watson, who is in charge of the campaign here, thinks the University should donate. According to Miss Watson, 2,000 students visit the library every day. If only half that number who use FREE the books purchased for them by the state would donate ten cents to the library fund, the University would easily reach the mark set.
The money raised is to be used by the national library war council to purchase books for the soldiers. Plans are now under way to establish a library in every cantonment; and the money which you and I donate will be required to
Miss Watson announces that a contribution box will be on the main delivery desk in Spooner Library all of next week. Into this box, all students who use books at Spooner Library can obtain $20 worth of cents to a dollar. You can of course give more if you wish.
Every penny of the money will go toward the purchase of books which our soldiers want and need.
"The thing we miss over here most of all is books and tobacco," writes a former K. U. engineer who is now in France, to a man on the Hill. "If we stand in good with the, we can get tea leaves to smoke—but there's no way on earth we can get reading matter unless it is sent to us. Maybe you get the inflection!"
Do your share next week. Mr. Student! The price of an elacr or a movie show will be a sufficient donation.
Vacancies On Student Council Were Filled At Meeting Wednesday
But give it!
Schools
Nine Men Selected From Nomi
nees Made By Different
At the second meeting of the Men's Student Council Wednesday election was held to fill the nine vacancies created by members who did not return to school. The newly elected members of the council chosen from the men nominated by the different schools are:
T. F. Pickering, for the School of Engineering; E. F. Johnson, from the School of Pharmacy; John D. Murphy, and A. W. Hershberger, from the School of Law; Harold Hoover, Willard Hilton, Clarence Gorrill, Homer Hunt, and Herbert Laslett, from the College.
The Council has been given charge of the benefit dance Friday night for Company M because the Senate ruling gives the Men's Student Council sole authority to conduct such enterprises. The purpose of the dace will remain the same and the proceeds will go to Company M.
Measures which will eliminate free onlookers at Varsity dances and which will require all stags to pay the price of admission were passed.
It is the plan of the council to eliminate all chance of graft this year on the part of the entertainment committee for the variety dances by having two men in charge of each dance. One will sell the tickets, while the other will be stationed at the door with a ticket box which will be locked and the key it to be in the hand of the secretary and treasurer of the Council. In the case the treasurer will be able to check on the end of the tickets the amount of money received; thus chance for graft will be reduced.
Campus improvements Continue Changes are being made on the campus. A walk is being made west of Blake Hall and least down the hill and east to Sixteenth street. A number of small bushes are being planted on the side of the hill close to the Law Building. Room 203 in Snow Hall is being partitioned so as to make three offices instead of a classroom.
It was also decided at the meeting that all Freshmen will be compelled to wear the distinctive caps. This was the only way to move the day of the first foot-ball game.
Camus Improvements Continue
Engineer's Fees No Higher
Much to the relief of the students enrolled in the School of Engineering, the fees have not been advanced over those of last year. It had been expected that, with the increased cost of engineering equipment and supplies intended for daily use, the fee would be materially advanced.
Meeting Postponed Until Wednesday
The meeting of the Y. M. C. A.,
scheduled for yesterday afternoon was postponed until next Wednesday at 4:30 o'clock. Hugo Wedell, secretary of the association will give the lecture which he was to have given yesterday at the meeting.
Miss Harriett Greissinger, assistant professor of piano, attended grand opera, "Aida," in Kansas City Thursday night.
Aviation Course Draws Fourteen From College And Engineering School
Classes In Flying the University's Newest War Service —Enrollment Continues
Fourteen students are enrolled in the University's newest "war baby" course, aviation. The work of the course is divided into three distinct sections under specialists of the School of Engineering and in the College, and is to correspond in a large degree to the first three months "on the ground," given aviation studies. Two of these students form Twelve of the students in aviation here are from the College and two are from the Engineering School.
The class is open to all students who have finished a year's work in College or who have had the equivalent of a year's work in engineering. All students or non-students, resi- dented or not resi- denced in the course should see or write A. H. Slusz, associate professor of mechanical engineering.
The courses for the first semester are as follows: Aeronautics I: "General Theory of Flight," two hour course by Prof. Solomon Leftschetz of the department of mathematics. Aeronautics II: "Internal Combustion of Motors for Aeroplanes," two hour course by Associate Prof. A, H. Slusu of the department of mechanics. Aeronautics III: "Special Course in Mechanics," one hour course by Prof. T. T. Smith of the department of physics.
The suspense at last has been relieved. The government paymaster arrived in Lawrence this afternoon with money for the payment of the soldiers of Company M. The boys have not been paid since August 5 and with almost the federal service and with almost two months pay they will be in good financial shape when they break camp for Oklahoma Sunday.
For the second semester the above courses will be repeated and advanced work in the same courses will be given in addition.
Company M Gets Pay
The fact that K. U. students are interested in this work is shown not only by the enrollment but by the number of former students already in the actual work. Among those who were in school last year are: Hugh Gravey, Sherman Kelley and Whithee, all at Potential II; John Kirkland, Dayton, Ohio; Russell Cowill, Urbana, Ill.; Ben Brown and Burnett Bower, "somewhere in France." Other former students in the service are Ray Folk, Dayton Ohio, and Sam Pickard, Toronto.
No Coal Shortage—Shea
The University is not likely to face any shortage in the coal supply this year, according to John M. Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds. The University has a large supply of coal on hand. A long stretch of cold weather might cause some inconvenience as the University does not carry coal at all, so it will need to last throughout the year. Mr. Shea says that in his opinion the supposed coal shortage throughout the country does not exist. There is more coal, he says, in Kansas City today than in a number of former years.
Book Exchange Handles
Fewer Books This Year
The student book exchange is charge of the Men's Student Council handled 200 less books this year unanl. Walter Raymond, in charge of the exchange blames the change of texts for this. Students have had to buy new books this year. Calls made by students also have been less.
The exchange closes Saturday and students are urged to draw out all unsold books so that reports may be closed. The exchange will be open Friday from 1:30 o'clock to 4:30 o'clock and Saturday from 8:30 o'clock to 12:30 o'clock and two hours Saturday afternoon.
Plain Tales From The Hill
This week the freshman sisterhood pledges move in.
Bag, baggage, tennis racket, uke,
et al. they come.
They are welcomed by an austere sister. "Third floor," she tells them. "Five of you can room together. We have to go to the rent. Rents are higher because of the war. Please hurry and unpack. You have to clean the living room. Then sweep the porch. I will wear your silk swatter to tow this after-erum. We can run up to the Geology building, wise Mary's powder puff."
An instructor in the department of Romance Languages was seen in front of the Varsity theatre the other night with a blonde lady. Whether or not he saw a ball and chain is not known. Anyway, he broke the date rule.
They have moved in.
Six of one and half a dozen of another. That's the iden Raymond C. Moore, assistant professor of Geology, has adopted in his class. He puts the co-esses on one side and the co-edies on the other.
But we warn him to look out for poker games.
"Now Henry VIII was an able ruleer." Professor Dykstra told his students. "But he had his idiosyncrasies."
Back in the room someone smiled and the wicked smile spread to the face of Professor Dykstra.
And Henry VIII wasn't a Mormon, either.
New reporters on the Kansan are called "cubs."
Don Joslin, fan, enthusiast, dopester, and reporter reposed in the middle of sport pages, baseball magazines and a rocking chair. The forthcoming world's series was queering him.
"Say, Don," came from his roomie,
"what did the Kansan say about this?"
Back from the inside of a sport
box in the report: "Don't know;
too busy."
Roomie again: "Well, ain't you a cub reporter?"
"No, sir. I'm a white sox reporter."
Charles Mohler demonstrated in a novel way one night this week what smoking will do to a young man. While studying he lit a match to apply to his smoke. The match ignited the eye of a woman, and a couple of minutes things were hot.

This is just like an O. Henry story.
She, a freshman, had a little black velvet hat which did valiant service during rush week. Three days of rushing the hat gadded and lived. The third night the freshman's roomie went to a dance and the freshman stayed at home.
The electric light was too light for sleep. But roomie would be angry if she had it come into a dark room. The light was just the thing. Just the right glow.
The freshman slept long and soundly until the landlady, remembering she had forgotten to empty the drip pan under the refrigerator, arose, sniffed, listened and sniffed. Odor of her room showed blue smoke. On the dresser lay a pile of ashes. On the light hung a blackened frame.
Dread Cafe to Help Fund
"Oh, John, throw away that Fatima, will you?"
The freshman stirred, sniffed and drowsily murmured:
Oread Cafe to Help Fund
The entire proceeds of the Oread Cafe tonight following the Company M benefit-farewell dance will be turned over to the Company M fund, E. C. Bricken, proprietor, has announced. All of the money received for refreshments following the dance will be given including the expenses which will not be deducted.
Political Bug Buzzes As Selection of Class Officials Comes Near
But as Yet Only One Class Has Announced Complete Ticket
Council Rules Will Hold
Illegal Voting Or Improper Electioneering Will Be Punished
Political enthusiasm over the coming class election had reached a white heat today and already one complete class ticket has been announced. The election, to be held Friday of next week, while lacking much of the punch that characterized class politics, in older years promises to have at least one of the thrills that go with the selection of the class officials.
Along with the election of a president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer of each of the four classes choice must be made of two managers of the junior prom, manager of theimore hop and editor of the Jayhawker managers and Jayhawker editor are to be elected from the junior class.
CLASSES SHOW INTERNS!
Politics show in the classroom on the Hill during the past week have resulted in the mapping out of one complete ticket for every class and rumor has it that the freshmen will be with at least two tickets in the field.
The sophomores stole a march on the other classes by announcing a complete ticket first. A war time slogan has been adopted and the To-Be given a given Bruce. Bruce Fleming; vice-president, Charley Hughes; secretary, Mary Samson; treasurer, Earl B. McKimey; manager of the Sophomore As yet no other ticket has been announced for the second year men.
The juniors have given out no information as to the probable line-up for the election although prominent candidates have a complete ticket has been arranged.
STUDENT RULES ANNOUNCED
While the political bosses are haranguing over the situation the Student Council is busy getting things in shape for the election. Petitions must be in the hands of the president by next Tuesday. Twenty-five signers are required for a petition. A fee of seventy-five cents is required of each candidate and nonpayment of same by noon Tuesday cancels the candidacy of the student. A committee of election judges must up of three judges from each class to be appointed before the Hawkevor before the election. The council reiterate the old rule as still in effect calling for the disciplining of students guilty of illegal voting or electorisation within a radius of ten feet of the judges' tables.
No word has leaked out of the senior class political ring. Popular seniors contend that as yet no choice has been reached.
The Associated Journalists, an organization of the students in the department of Journalism, will meet Wednesday evening at 7:30 o'clock in the Kansan office. Officers will be sent to college for instruction made. All students enrolled in journalistic classes are eligible for membership.
Journalists Will Meet Soon to Elect Officers
Several well known Kansas newspaper men were brought here last year by the organization. A Boheman supper dance was a feature of the social program and a newspaper dance and barbecue also were given.
Closer associations and better acquaintance among the students of the department are the primary purposes of the organization.
September 26,1917
To the Students:
It is rumored that Company M soon will leave Lawrence. It is largely made up from the University of Kansas, but whether the men are from the University or not we hold them accountable. The Company as our company. We hope continually to keep in touch with them and to help provide for their comfort while they are in the service. I trust, therefore, that the whole University will ensure their departure and contribute to their comfort and welfare.

THEIR NEW DUTIES
The responsibilities which their new position brings them should be deeply impressed upon the nine new members of the student council, elected Wednesday night. This year, of all years, the student council must be keenly alive to its opportunities, and ever eager to exert its influence for good. In a large measure, the welfare of the University will be affected by the wisdom and far-sightedness of those on the council.
Most pressing will be the solution of the graft problem. This, in all probability, will be the first thing to which the new members will have their attention turned; and they should give the matter long and careful thought. Whether K. U. is to be "cleaned up"—whether there is to be an end to "rotten graff," and the substitution for it of a system of adequate compensation for managers on a percentage basis, with the balance going to a commons fund—will depend almost solely on the student council. May their decision be a wise one, and its enforcement rigid?
The second question confronting council members will be that of freshman caps. How to foster the right sort of spirit toward the custom, how to enforce it and thus keep inviolate a K. U. tradition, and how to insure that future freshman classes will be required to continue the custom are all aspects of the problem which must be solved.
Then there is the matter of the permanent income. In just about a year from now the people of the state will be voting on the question; and it is up to the student council to create in the meantime, a state-wide sentiment in favor of it. The alumni association and the University's publicity manager will aid in the work, of course; but the student council must do its share.
And after that comes a lot of other matters—the erection of a commons, of a University cafeteria, of a woman's dormitory. The faculty and the student body must be brought into closer sympathy and understanding. And other vexing questions, bobbing up almost daily, will have to be solved.
Use your heads, members of the council! On your ability to see and to think depends much that is of prime importance to your Alma Mater!
No wonder the men in Company M need a company fund. They haven't been paid since they mobilized!
MUSICAL ORGANIZATIONS
MUSICAL ORGANIZATIONS The thirty-two men who were selected from double that number of applicants for positions in the University band are to be congratulated. Bandleader McCanles always produces an organization of which the whole University has a right to be proud; and the selection of thirty-
two talented musicians after the tryouts carly this week is one of the evidences that the band this year is to be as good as any of those in the past.
The K. U. band has a standing among college bands the country over that is extremely enviable. Ten years ago this was not so. But since "Mac" McCanies decided to make Mount Oread the field for his musical endeavors, there has been steady and constant improvement. When Mac first came to K. U., the band practices sounded like boiler factory operations; today, the band plays "heavy" music attempted only by superior organizations—and plays it well.
Last night, candidates for positions in the University Orchestra attended the initial tryout in Fraser. From those who appeared last night, and those who subsequently try out, the University's orchestra will be chosen. Prof. F. E. Kendrie, a new member of the faculty of the School of Fine Arts, is to have charge of the orchestra this year. If he is to be expected to build up an organization that will be as successful as the band, he should have the support of every student who plays an orchestra instrument.
Lawrence pawnbrokers have a new rival—the University book exchange. The chief trouble is that books can be turned into cash only twice during the school year.
OTHER OPINIONS
UNIVERSITY AS USUAL
The business men of the country have adopted for their motto: "Business as Usual." We suggest as a University maxim "University as Usual." Although the times are not always so good, the best method to obtain the most profitable results, is to conduct one's activities as near normal lines as possible.
A certain readjustment must be made in the conduct of affairs to gain the greatest good, and the University has already made several "war" changes, such as the adoption of drill, placing emphasis on certain courses and the special training to produce the skill for the reconstruction period after the war. Part of the curriculum and were needed to meet current conditions.
Students should strive to conduct their affairs in a similar manner, adjusting themselves to meet changed conditions. Upon the declaration of war last spring the sudden change demoralized college work throughout the country, because the students and faculty members attempted to assist in preparedness and do college work at the same time.
POET'S CORNER
The function of colleges now is to aid in producing trained leaders and the proper way to do this, if one is in college, is to work diligently, as under normal times, and not let the changed conditions warp one's college experience. These settled classes and half-hearted educational endeavors—Utah Chronicle.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
New Requirements Are Planned for Students In School of Education
New Regulations to Meet Laws For State Teachers Certi-
That conditions under which students in the School of Education registered this fall are subject to change was the announcement made tis morning by Dean Kelly, of the School of Education, that students were tutored during registration week informing those who were about to enroll in educational courses of the proposed change which will make the requirements for a teacher's diploma more nearly coincide with the legal requirements for the state teacher's certificate.
A joint meeting of the faculties of the College and of the School of Education, held September 17, recommended that;
Requirements for the university teacher's diploma be reduced from 125 hours to 120 hours; that a course in senior teaching in addition to an undergraduate led by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences toward the degree of bachelor of arts; and that the State Board of Administration be asked to grant the state certificate to graduates of the University of Kansas who meet the requirements made by the above board in regard to applicants from other colleges.
It will also be recommended that the scholarship requirements of the School of Education be made the same as those of the College. According to the old system of grading, applicants for a university teacher's diploma were required to average eighty per cent, while for a College degree, the scholarship requirement was eighty hours of I's and II's.
While these changes have not been passed upon by the faculty of the College, Dean Kelly is confident that they will be adopted by that body. If adopted the measures will go into effect immediately.

WHAT THEY SAY
Lawson May and John Montgomerie. The farewell dance for Company. M is being given for a purely profitous job. The profit goes to the company fund.
Jessie Wyatt: I think journalism is perfectly lovely; and so exciting! Even Professor Boynton wasn't half as bad as they said he'd be.
Prof. Eugenie Galloo: The increased enrollment in the French department is not a sudden bad. It is rather a temporary decrease in ship between France and America.
Mrs. W. S. Hunter: I am the most affable person in the world when you know your lessons. But I am like the little girl with the little curl down when you don't. If you study; everything will be lovely, lovely!

AMUSEMENTS IT'S "POLLY"
Yes, it's "Polly of the Circus" with Mae Marsh that will be the FIRST under the management of Sherman Wiggins, and will be shown at the Tuesday event. It's Tuesday of next week. "Bout every body guessed this would be the one when the list was announced last Saturday because it is the picture that will make the event memorable and please everybody, just like a circus.
You know, circuses aren't what they used to be. They have grown up and become so very smart with all their mystifying mechanical contraptions. The tanback carries the odor of gasoline split by leaky motors; there are electric lights and brick walls and even the peanuts are roasted in new fangled roasters that somehow burn away their flavor. Then the clowns and the equestriannes are so far off that they don't seem humorous. They're big, bright, big and smart and much less likable. But there are memories and in "Polly of the Circus" these are revived, a real circus atmosphere is attained, and beauty of the picture is that "the audience is made to care."
"For the children's sake" the whole family will need to see "Polly of the Circus."—Adv.

"Looks Like Scrapping Team," Coach Predicts After Fast Scrimmage
Men Have Old Time Fighting Spirit—Stem Foster Joins
The Squad
"It looks like a scraping team," is the way Coach Olcott summed up the Kansas prospects yesterday afternoon after practice.
Thirty-two players were out. This is the largest squad that has reported to the coach this season, and everything points towards a winning team, providing the men scrap as they did in the scrimmage yesterday.
The biggest recent boost to the team was the return of Stem Foster, the little but fast quarterback of last year. He arrived late yesterday morning, but was out to Hamilton Field on scheduled time. Coach Olcott immediately put him in at quarterback and practiced a few signals
The old time Kansas football spirit has been rejuvenated the last week and the men smash the line and carry the ball, as if every drive was to push the oval across the Tiger's goal line. Captain Swede Nielsen, has a cut at the corner of his right eye, but nothing stops him when he tucks the ball under his arm and starts toward the line.
After the signal drill, the entire squad was lined up for tackling prac
George Nettles, left tackle, shows the best tackling ability. Earl Shirl, star last year, Paul Jones, 190-pound guard from the freshman squad last year, Captain Blank, seni the first tackle, above with his Prinkle, K man at left half, also showed first class tackling ability.
If the players continue to develop as they have in the last week, Kansas should have a leading valley team. The players have the fighting spirit.
The students of the University also are getting back of the team. Over hundred earthball enthusiasts watch their scrimmage yesterday from the sidelines.
The Haskell Indians will open their football season with a clash with Ottawa University on Haskell Field Saturday afternoon, at 2:30 o'clock. Alfred Hill, who was graduated from the University last spring and now a Compete First Kansas Infantry, will referee the game. The Indians have a good team according to A. M. Venne, manager.
Coach Olcott yesterday afternoon said it was very likely Haskell would scrimmage with the Kansas gridiron against an Hamilton Field this afternoon.

Captain Must Be Chosen To Lead Distance Men—Freshman Runners Wanted
Call for Cross Country Sent Out by Coach for Frosh and Upperclassmer
First practice for the cross country team will be held Monday, Fred Rodkey, coach of the team, announced this morning. Because there are none of last year's stars back to try for the season, students must be student men who are distance runners of any ability to come out and try for the team.
Freshmen, too, should come out for the frog squad and their showing among the first year men may mean a trip to Kansas City, Thanksgiving Day, for the annual cross-city run. Freshmen, too, will be on O. Hamilton has taken two or three freshmen and entered them in this meet and the men have always done well. Several have come back with medals. Freshmen and sophomores

Harry Rinker, this season's captain, will not be in the University on account of being called October 1 in the draft. A new man will have to be elected captain. Men who do work or who make the team of six men, are given crown "Captain." Six men must last year, because work of the men was so well balanced and so consistent throughout the season.

The men in school who are eligible and who have had some experiences in this sort of running are: Rex Brown, Daniel DeWald, R. C. Kietzman, Ralph Buffington and Ralph Rodkey. It is probable that Ernest Steteler, one of the best men of last fall's team, will be out to help the men in their first practice. He is in the school working for his master's degree.

The football jersey, number 13, which was worn by Adrian Lindsey, captain of the squad last year, one of the most feared halfbacks in the Missouri Valley Conference, is being worn this year by Russell L. Stephens, who is wearing a white shirt at the great scales at 170 pounds. He tips the scales at 170 pounds and won a freshman letter in the right guard position last year.
