Dean Calls Roosevelt Creator of Democracy In Speech at Church
F. W. Blackmar Pays Tribute To Memory of Ex-president
One of World's Great Men
Washington, Lincoln and Roosevelt Stand Out as Patriots
"No single man had greater influence in winning the war than Theodore Roosevelt," said F. W. Blackmar, dean of the Graduate School, in an address at the Methodist Church Sunday.
Dean Blackman expressed his sorrow that the full realization of the worth of Colonel Roosevelt was not brought about until after his death. He said it would probably be many years before his realization would reach its climax.
CREATED REAL DEMOCRACY "He was a strong individualist battling in the defense of the right," declared Dean Blackmar. "Making furious and fearless attacks on the wrong. He stood for justice among men. He frequently irritated individuals and sometimes the community, for his incognacism was s ever at war with traditional convention, but his attacks brought a reaction of wholesome social life. Standing feeblesly for what he thought was unadulterated right and best suited to the practical needs of his country, he appeared inconsistent alike to radicals and to conservatives. But his apparent inconsistencies and tilioxynacries were but straws on the deep, strong currents of constructive statesmanship. As a leader of the Progressive movement he has left a lasting impression on social and political institutions, modified the platforms of political parties and created a real democracy in America.
"Roosevelt believed in the vigorous the laborer and employer. All social service workers and reformers knew of his sympathy in improving social conditions. He was always interested in the people and whenever he

Order Concerning Wearing of Uniforms After Discharge Received Here
Discharged Officers
May Not Wear Uniform
"Thereafter the officer may wear his uniform only upon occasions of ceremony."
An authoritative ruling concerning the wearing of uniform by discharged soldiers, issued by Gen. Peyton C. March, chief of staff, has been received at S. A. T. C. headquarters here. It reads as follows
"Present law authorizes a discharged officer or soldier to wear his uniform from the place where he was present for two months of the date of his discharge from the service.
NUMBER 70
"The enlisted man must return his uniform within four months of date of discharge; but can wear it only as stated above.
"An act is now before Congress which if passed, will authorize enlisted men to keep the uniform which they are permitted to wear home, and to wear that particular uniform, only, provided some distinctive mark or insignia, to be issued by the War Department, shall be worn.
"It will thus be clearly seen that neither under existing nor proposed law will have a discharged soldier be permitted to wear uniforms made by civilian or other tailors. They may legally wear only the particular uniform which they have been permitted to retain."
The Kansas branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers will hold meetings every two weeks for the rest of the year at the engineering building at the University. There will be a program given at each meeting, and two members of the society will talk on specified subjects. Joe Mahan and John Wahlsthe will speak on "Water Power Engineers," Thursday, February 7, at 7:30 o'clock. The remaining subjects to be discussed are: "Marine Engineering," "Tractors," "Aviation," "Safety Engineering," Irrigation "Good Rounds," Zinc Mining," and "Artillery."
Aboku Society Elects New Members for Year
The new members of the Ahlok society for this year, elected last fall, and some elected last Wednesday night, are: Homer Eagles, J. Jakowsky, and George Lynn from the school of Engineering; Howard Brown, Edward Mason, Charles Nettles, R. H. Albach, Flood Hockenbull, B. Shifler, School of College; Frank Patty from the School of Pharmacy; and Edward Taylor and Marion Renner from the School of Medicine.
The purpose of the society is to keep in touch with the work of the university athletics, and to discuss the policy of athletic scholastic standing.
Eastern Medical Schools
Get Kansas Students
Two hundred ninety Kansas men and women are studying medicine in various medical schools throughout the United States. Of this number, 137, or a little more than 47 per cent are in the medical school that the state provides for them, the School of Medicine of the University of Kansas. The remaining 153, who are attending medical schools, make up a fair estimate $100,000 a year from the state to spend outside the state.
The superior hospital facilities of the big eastern medical schools attack many Kansas men and women whose parents can afford to send them there. The poor men or women in Kansas must depend on his state for a medical education, if he wishes to be a doctor. Whenever his state refuses to provide adequate hospitals for the poor of the commonwealth as Kansas does to a shameful degree, it not only does the moneyless Kansan who is ill an injustice, but it dismays the girl boy or woman, and at the same time it encourages the sons or daughters of wealthier Kansans to go outside the state to spend one hundred thousand dollars of Kansas wealth yearly. This money can be kept in the state if Kansas will build the new hospital the University is asking to be built at Rosedale.

University Service To State Continues In Spite of War Work
Food and Water Laboratories Active as Well as Extension Division
In spite of the war work which practically every member of the University faculty has been doing in addition to class work and in spite of the number of faculty members who have leaves of absence to enter the service or are engaged in war work in the country, the majority of services which the University has done for the state have not been interrupted.
Among faculty members who have been working for the government at the University are:

Dr. H, P. Cady of the chemistry department discovered a process of making "argon gas" which made balloon observation safe. Associated with Dr. Cady were Prof. C, W. Seibel, Prof. F, W. Brueckmiller, Prof. H, C. Allen, Prof. P, V. Farager, and Miss Emily Berger.
Dean Sayre of the School of Pharmacy was enlisted direct from Washington to answer emergency calls for pharmacists anywhere. He was never called upon, but was always in readiness for call. Dean Sayre is also a member of the State Board of Health. Dr. Nelson, also of the School of Pharmacy, was on the staff of physicians during the influenza epidemic in the S. A. T. C. here. The School of Pharmacy was also called upon to do analytical work during the epidemic here as well as at Camp Funston.

The water section of the State Board of Health, consisting of a water laboratory in Snow Hall and the office of the Engineer of the State Board of Health in Marvin Hall carried on its work so efficiently that in the past five years there has been but one typhoid epidemic traceable to the public water supply. The work done by the laboratory consists in analyzing all public water supplies. Water from ground sources is analyzed twice a year while water from surface sources is tested once a week. The work of the engineer of the State Board of Health is the inspecting of all water, sewage and sanitary plants. Water plants are inspected every six weeks and are also the sewage plants. The plants that come under the jurisdiction of the engineer must make regular reports to his of
The state entomologist conducts investigations for the farmers in the state. The work is especially directed against the injurious insects of Kansas crops. Much has been done against the green bug, the San Jose scale and insects. Nursery stock sold in the state is inspected by the representatives of the state entomologist. Send the Daily Kansan home.
The Municipal Reference Bureau in Fraser Hall does much for the towns of Kansas and is especially advocating the city-manager plan of government. The weather bureau also helps promote the tourism a yearly report of the weather over the state for every day in the year.
The work of the food laboratory in the Chemistry Building is of equal importance with that of the water department and is another branch of the State Board of Health. It consists in analyzing samples of food gathered by three state food inspectors. The report of the test is turned in to the State Board of Health and if the examination shows adulteration, the State Board notifies the manufacturer of the product and if it is necessary they may order the prosecuting attorney of the county in which the food is manufactured to start action against the company.
Y.M.C.A. Men Advocate Holding Chapel Daily Or Weekly As of Old
Should Be Held at Time When Students Are Already on
Hill
"The thing that I have missed more than anything else since I have been back here is the church services and convocations," said Frank J. Parker, secretary of the Y. M. C. A., this morning. "When I was in school there was a short church service every day and a longer meeting on Fridays." "If a daily service is not advisable there ought to be a meeting once a week at least. The worst thing that could happen done with the change of the time to 8 o'clock in the morning. To make anything of this kind successful it must come at a time when the students are already in the hill."
"It cannot be said that the University is too big for Convocations because there are no more students here and they worked all right then."
"Too many people seem to think that the only thing students come to school for is the class work. While a regular convoction might interfere somewhat, the results would more than overbalance. A man can study at school he needs the school spirit and enthusiasm as well as the classes."
"It seems to me that the lack of a regular time for the students to get together is one of the most serious things lacking in the life of this University. That is my impression as a new man on the Hill," said Dr. Chas. E. Henry the former secretary of the M.C. and "and what has been said by Mr. Parker who is a former student and knows the old situation."
Fifteen Days Were Entirely
Clgar—Wind Averaged 12.29
Miles Hourly
January Much Warmer Than 51-year Average
Clear skies, unusually warm days, with relatively little wind, marked the first month of the year, according to the report of Prof. F. E. Kestler, weather reporter for the University. The average cloudiness was less than one half the mean of the previous records at Lawrence for January, and almost the same for that were entirely clear and only four that were entirely cloudy.
The mean temperature for the month was 32.10 degrees, nearly nine degrees warmer than January last year, and 5.69 degrees above the January average for the past 51 years. The highest temperature was 64 degrees during the winter, and 16 degrees below zero on the 3d, giving a monthly range of 80 degrees.
The average hourly velocity of the wind was 12.29 miles and the total wake length was 47.60 m.

Plain Tales From the Hill
KEEP AN EVE ON THOSE GRADS
"Torchy" Paul Johnson, c'19, is doing sensational assignments on the Rockford Morning Star Who would ever think that any man could get training in K.U. that would enable him to write on such subjects as "Jazz Dancing Haunts Visited on Still Hunt for Propriety Line," and "Oh, Girls should you give up your job to returning soldiers." Torchy certainly seems to know all about the "Shiver and Shake" and the "Girl problem."
What high school youth let the goat into the Chi Omega house last Thursday night about midnight? Last year it was a calf that was lost in one of the houses. Next year the little boy cut-ups will have to get a camel, an elephant or a kangaroo to be truly original.
Students may have thought that they made Paul mad when they called him Torchy last year but they certainly were fooled if they did. Torchy still uses his old nick name to head some article advising men to marry women, but it does not suit any other way, or beawling the latest styles in women's costumes.
Uncle Jimmy Green has so many big things in his mind that he doesn't have time to bother about the usual details that are important in the life of an ordinary human being. The other morning he opened his desk and happened to notice a package lying there.

The University Club has taken the place of Pi in the Plain Tales column. Sometimes ago, when no one else could be found who was doing anything especially unusual or clever, we always fell back on the dog as a source of comment.

Missouri's Teamwork Overcomes K.U. Five In Spite of Rallies
Tigers Take Two-game Series,
44 to 25 and 37
to 15
Whirlwind Start Is Futile
Short Passes and Dribbling Well Handled by Oppon-
The Missouri Tigers defeated Kansas in both games of the two-game basketball series in Robinson gymnasium Friday and Saturday, winning the first battle by a score of 44-25 and the second by a 37-15 score. The Jayhawker quintet was clearly outplayed in both games and played loose basketball most of the time. The teamwork of the Tigers was the feature of each game and the same short-passing attack that the Missouri used to advantage last year again battled the Jayhawkers. In the first game when Matthews scored free throw, but Schrosder scored three times for Missouri before Kansas again found the basket. Bunn threw a field goal and captain Ruby of Missouri broke away from the Jayhawker defense and tossed a pair of goals from under the basket. The first half ended with the score 30-14 for Missouri.
Kansas played a much better brand of basketball in the second period, however, and held the Tigers almost even, scoring 11 points to 14 by Missouri. Frederick substituted for Matthews at center toward the end of the last half and showed good form, both at getting the tip-off and shooting goals. He made two pretty shots from near mid-court and registered another goal from near the sidelines. Ruby and Vogt did most of the scoring for Missouri in the second half. Bunn played his usual consistent game for the Jayhawkers. The score follows;

"You'll have lots of honors to place after your name in the Jayhawker." This argument used by some fraternity men to try to interest their freshmen in student activities sets as a goal and reward the highest and noblest ambition possible. Such an honor outweighs all other reasons for trying to promote University life and activities.
ONE STUDY. OR MANY?
Is there too much sectalization in University work? Do students in the colleges today specialize so much in one branch of study, that they are not the most efficient in their work after they leave the universities and colleges?
This subject is being discussed in numerous educational centers now. At a meeting of the third annual Intercollegiate Vocational Conference held in Cambridge recently Le Baron Russell Briggs, president of Radcliffe College, urged University women against too much specialization, no matter which of the various lines open to women they intended to take up: banking, employment management, secretarial and library work, store management, research, or teaching.
Mrs. Lucinda W. Prince, director of the Prince School of Education for Store Service, also urged women to get a broad and liberal education.
"The work is different every day," said Mrs. Prince, "and one must have a general knowledge in order to cope with situations as they arise."
In the universities now, specialization has come to be recognized as an important factor, but in a good man cases is it being carried to an extreme Will these students with their specialized education have a broad enough knowledge to enable them to meet an situation in every day life and get the most enjoyment out of all phases of activity?
Applying the question to yourself, is your course in the University narrowing or broadening and cultural? If it is so specialized that it does not make you a bigger, better, and happier citizen because you have taken it, then it is not balanced and should be changed.
The United States is booked for an invasion in 1919 which will rival that of the Germans in Europe. According to the Department of Agriculture, the 17-year locust is expected to appear in horses, and the invasion will probably be the worst on record.
Why limit the charging of frater nities to fire department runs? Why
not have charges for postman tripe? Establish the cost system, and make the fraternity pay the expenses on the delivery of each letter.
Soldiers overseas may marry their sweethearts in this country by mail, according to a recent War Department ruling. Three cents, ordinarily by special, ten cents extra.
SELF-ACTING CLASS PUMPS
Indications of one of the greatest effects of the war upon education In American colleges may be found in the recent utterances of college professors and other educators, to the affect that hereafter learning will be achieved more by personal initiative in the student himself than has been done before. This is simply one result that the war had in putting the nation as a whole upon its own feet.
In the past the lecture system of instruction has been used too commonly. As one critic has remarked, "the pupil has been regarded as a tub and the professor as a self-acting pump." In the future it is expected that the instructor do more to start and encourage the personal initiative of the student.
The newer method will not only promote aggressiveness in the pupil. It will also serve to unite students and faculty in a manner that heretofore has never been possible. The responsibilities of both will be accepted and faced more squarely.
THINGS THAT KILL
There is a type of student on Mount Orend who asks about everything. The species is too prevalent for the good of the University, and the comfort of persons connected with the institution. He wants information, and spends three-fourths of his time getting it. He looks squerely at a sign saying "Jayhawker Office," turns to the nearest victim, and inquires, Is this the Jayhawker office? The instructor announces that there will be a quiz on Monday, whereat the pest reaffirms and verifies the announcement by going up after class and asking if there will be a quiz on Monday.
When he reads that grades are to be given out in the registrar's office and not at the dean's office, he steps into the dean's office to ask if that report is really true. Not content with the word of professors, and printed notices, he asks every one within a half-mile radius if everything is true. If he cannot be silenced by any other way, violent means should be taken.

SCIENTIFIC VALUE OF LEISURE It was said by Helmholtz, on his seventieth birthday, according to Dr. Graham Lusk, in an address printed in Science (New York, December 27), that a great idea had never come to him when he was at his desk, nor usually when he was walking in the garden muling of other things. Dr. Lusk goes on:
The reason for the bench west of Green Hall?
The faculty woman who wears shoes?
"The scientist must have leisure to think over the problems which offer and he must have a certain discrimination in order to distinguish between the things which are worth doing and those which are not. To do this requires a certain delay in action in order that plans may be matured. The individual who can handle all the time is much full of heart the time is much less likely to accomplish successful scientific work than he who will not commence a research until he has satisfied himself that it is worth doing. It is not to be denied that this essential qualification of scientific life is frequently regarded with scorn by the busy practitioner of medicine, who gives himself no time either for thought or study."—Literary Digest.

NOSTRILS IN TREE TRUNKS To the Daily Kansan:
"Unscientific," writing in The Daily Kansan, wants to know what happens to trees when their lungs drop off. Well, dear one, the same thing happens to trees in such circumstances as would happen to you when your lungs stopped expanding or when your Ford stopped drinking gasoline. In other words, the trees would be defunct.
Mother nature, however, in her all wise provision desires not that her tree offspring cease breathing with the first frost. By means of her intricate experiments in thousands of centuries, she has developed small openings through the bark of the trunk, twigs, and roots which the trees may use as nostrils during the leafed as well as leafless seasons.
Leading away from these nosilts are communication trenches, so small that a pin point is as large as Mount Oread in their eyes. These intercellular spaces, for this is what Professor Stevens calls them, conduct the oxygen to every living cell in the tree.
Now. "Unscientific," if this treatise not your searchers after truth, upon further inquiry we will to exhaust our knowledge. Nature's Messenger.
Following is an explanation to show that the assertion, "Leaves are the lungs of treese," is aburd, taken from a communication from another scientist:
THE SALUTE OF JOAN OF ARC
Along the twig and lower branches of most trees and shrubs, there are found many dots or larger areas of rough, spongy bark, which are called lenticels. They are especially distinct on the bark of most birches, and cherry trees, and in these finally reach a rather large size. Each lenticel covers the position originally occupied by a stoma in the epidermis of the very young bark. As the stoma grew older, its characteristic cells disappeared and were replaced by spongy mass of thin walled cells. These lenticels serve for the entrance of gasses into the stem, and for their passage out of it. When once within the bark the gas or oxygen which is needed in the respiration of trees is circulated about to every cell.
In respiration every living cell is carrying on a very important part. The primary cause of the gas movement is found in diffusion, that process, whereby the molecules, driven by the energy of heat absorbed from the sun, tend always to move forward from places of lesser concentration, and therefore from places where they are being formed or released to places where they are not, and from places where they occur to places where they are being formed. The gases thus impaled along the passages by diffusion finally reach the living cells, and being soluble in water, are dissolved by the moist surfaces, and then diffuse through walls and protoplasm to the places of use.
Respiration also is carried on underground by the many small root hairs of the young roots. In the young roots, neither stomata nor lenticles are present, but the continuous epidermis here is not waterproofed, and is often actually coexposed with films of air through which the gases diffuse in solution from the air spaces in the soil to those in the root, and vice versa.
That was a very interesting endorsement of the super natural, rather long coming, but timely when it came. All her activities were the outcome of visions which inspired and instructed her. There is nothing in modern history like her story. Either her world was beyond our reach beyond, or else she was deceived about them, or else she was a successful faker.
THE SALUTE OF JOAN OF ARC
January sixth was the five hundred and seventh anniversary of the birth of Joan of Arc. She is a patron in New York, and they got the approval of Secretary Daniels to their suggestion of firing a salute to Joan from guns of warships in New York harbor.
But it is a mighty good fake that lasts five hundred years and is saluted by an American battleship in New York harbor. Joan was no cheat, Mark Twain, whose judgment about fakes was fairly good, wrote' a whole book about Joan, who had captured his good heart.
"Dinah" inquired the mistress suspiciously, "did you wash this fish carefully before you baked it?"

"Rosevelt believed in the vigour fearless life. He decried lethargy as a cause of national decline. He advocated the 'big stick' when it was necessary to bring the world to justice. Readiness and preparedness were his themes before the war, and 'fight to a finish' his teaching when the war was on. His program of prepredness means something more than military training. It is national preparedness, educational and industrial preparedness, politic unity, public health and training in a unified democracy. Who will say we did not need it in the great world struggle for justice? Who will say we do not need it for future national welfare?

Members Hauled Stone For First Church Here
Episcopal Congregation Built First Place of Worship In Lawrence
The idea of hauling the stone and building one's own church might not appeal to very busy, and self-interested persons today, but it was by such a process of personal interest and effort that Lawrence got its first church. Up to 1859, Lawrence was without a church. Then the young men agreed to haul stone, Gen. C, W. Babcock gave the land; Aug. 1, 1859, the first church of Lawrence was consecrated by Bishop Jackson Kemper. The Episcopal chapel, situated just south of Trinity Church on Vernon Street, was not only the first Church in Lawrence, but also the first Episcopal Church in Kansas. The first rector was the Rev. Charles Reynolds who was its pastor until the Civil War.
In Quantrell's raid on Lawrence the church records were lost. The work was taken up at the end of the war by the Rev, Robert W. Oliver, who was also the first chancellor of the University.
Since the building of the chapel, the north wing and tower have been added, and it is now used by Trinity Church for Sunday school classes.
Young Woman at Fifteen Student in University
When the youngest student in the University meets the oldest student, there is mutual admiration expressed. From the viewpoint of the youngest student, the oldest student is years older in wisdom and experience. The oldest student looks upon the youngest student as a prodigy of learning. How did he do it? For years the oldest student has been striving to attain what the youngest student has gained seemingly without effort.
The University of Kansas has its youngest student. It also has its oldest student, but the oldest student does not matter.
The youngest student is Victoria Krumsick of Paola. Miss Krumsick is fifteen years old, and was graduated from Paola high school last spring.
In addition to being advanced for her years in academic work. Miss Krumisick is a musician. One does not necessarily have to be a grind with no purpose in life except to study, according to Miss Krumisick.
Although Miss Krumsick is the youngest student in school there are six freshmen who are only sixteen. They are:
DeKoven A. French, Kansas City,
Kans; Alexander Marble, Troy; Dor-
erty Moody, Lenexa; Horace Moore,
Lawrence; Arlo Putnam, Lawrence;
Elizabeth Sartin, Kansas City; Kans.
The work of these students is as good and in several instance is better than that of their older classmates, instructors say.
Yanks Find Anti-Climax In Boasts of Germans
"We fear God, nothing else besides." That is one of the inscriptions on the walls of the hotel in which Harrison C. McMillin a former K. U. man, is quartered in Rolandseck, Germany, according to a letter received from him by Prof. W. H. Johnston. Mr. McMillen was graduated from the School of Engineering in 1943 and was teaching in Ogden, Utah. He studied law and he had previously been principal of the Kingman high school for three years.
In speaking of the inscriptions, Mr McMillin said:
"The Germans are great on painting inscriptions on their walls. Many of these were never intended for Allied eyes. Along the French border we found many inscriptions about the unconquerable power of Germany."
"In our quarters we gaze daily upon an extract from an old German classic which reads: 'Firm stands and true, the watch on the Rhine.' This is true enough, but they do not wear the German gray."
Mr. McMillin has been a wireless operator since he enlisted. He has a wireless station up in the hotel in which his command is quartered. He said the district about Rolandseck was a country of small villages along the Rhine at that point are dotted with old castles and that it was a "great place for tourists."

He free throw line, however, and then Ruby started the Tiger rally by dribbling through the Kansas defense and shooting from under the goal. Four more Tiger fields came in rapid succession before Bennett scored a free throw for Kansas.
The second half was a runaway for Missouri, with Ruby, Scott and Vort playing together like a machine. Schroeder also played well and contributed two field goals to the total.
Goals by Matthews and Mason constituted the Kansas scoring in this period, although almost every man on the team missed easy chances at
Coach Hamilton shifted his line-up in the second half in hopes of turning the tide, and used Harms and then Miller at left forward, sending Lonbong to guard in place of Bennett. Frederick substituted for Matthews at center in the last fifteen minutes of play.
In the series, Missouri demonstrated the fact that she had a combination of fast floor men and excellent dribblers, each possessing real goal shooting ability. Few of the Tiger goals were made by long shots, however. Coach Miller has tutored his men in the short-sample style of play that the Missouri five used under Coach Meenwell.

The Jayhawkers lived up to their reputation of being erratic in both games. In the second game the team played brilliantly in the first ten minutes, but slumped then and scored only five points in the remainder of the game. Captain Craig Ruby was the star of the Tiger quintet, although Vogt scored more times from
the field. Ruby's dribbling accounted for a large part of the Missouri score. Burn played well for Kansas in both games, but the feature of the second game, from the Jayhawker standpoint, was the guardy and all-around play of Mason. The score of the second game follows;

Woman Walks Two Miles Preparing Simple Meal
A woman who prepared supper for six persons, as a part of her work in home economics at the University of Kansas, walked two miles in preparing and serving the meal and then walked a quarter of a mile in clearing the table, washing the dishes and tidying up the kitchen. She wore a pedometer and the distance covered was accurately measured. It is considered fairly representative of the distance the average housewife walks in a like task.
Referee, E. C. Quigley, St. Mary's.

The meal was by no means elaborate as the student was limited to ninety cents total cost for the entire meal for six persons. She got under the limit with a total cost of 14 cents and 8 mills for each of the six persons. The quantity was satisfying and this is what they ate:

From Rosenwurm, A.B.J.17
"UNDER THE TOP"
Allied War Review, 1 Reel.
Elmer C. Rosenwurm, A.B. 14, has written to Prof. A. J. Boynton from Abweiler, near the Rhine. He is with the army of occupation in Germany and is a member of the 117 Engineers, Rainbow Division. Rosenwurm says, "A fellow can never grasp the possibilities of American life until he meets European methods." Whether or not this statement refers to his present location near the greatest vineyards of Germany is a question.
Professor Boynton also received a letter from another former student in the department of economics, Jas. G. Lyne, who is connected with the U. S. Department of Labor, in the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Lyne is gathering material on labor statistics for formation and factories through the United States. He was in the University last year and is a member of Pi Upsilon.

Faversham-Elliott Production Charms University Audience
"Lord and Lady Algy" Received Enthusiastically in Lawrence, Where Stars Are Stars
Record Run of Curtain Calls
Today
Hazy Dream of Black Velvet and Rose Disturbs Classes Today
Lawrence and the University, or as much of the two as could crowd into a " $2,000 house at the Bowerock" Monday night, reacted in the customary way to the attraction that staged stars have for the public. Lawrence and t i a University first applauded the stars or their stardom and then expressed appreciation for the occasion it was cast, setting and general worth, which was as advertised, unique thoroughly enjoyable and good.
When a Faversham-promised with a long "a" in the first syllable, first appeared the audience recognized him at once as Faversham, star with a capital A, and audiences with applause included with applause beginning with a capital "A."
But when Miss Elliott first "came on" the audience didn't recognize her as the star, also with a capital "S". She made a truly wonderful entrance — the picture was all that, could be asked of premier stagecraft, but the audience didn't applaude, except here and there somebody had a hunch that maybe that was Miss Elliott and gave a tentative hand, faintly.
WHEN THEY GOT HEP
Not until the butler said "her lady ship" in the lines leading to Miss Elliott's first words, did the audience realize that it was gazing on a star and instantly, electric, came a burst of applause, jumping out of the darkened house and swelling up in genuine appreciation for reputation, which is a synonym for "star." Truly on the planet we do love a star.
But if Faversham and Elliott had been only the excellent actors they are, and wholly without reputation admitting them to starmom the play would have been almost as enjoyable. Time after time, the audience were called back and each time they answered the "call of the appreciative audience."
Mr. Faversham's presentation of Lord Algerian Chetland, was flawless in all of its parts. He seemed to have gotten Hamlet's idea, when that character said: "The plays the thing," for not once did Mr. Faversham forget that he was an English Lord. Yet in his presentation there was nothing that reminisced of it, but the more as if they had been taken into the confidence of this nobleman adn saw his life.
SUPPRESSED ACTION IN ART
Maxine Elliott as Lady Algernon Chetland was superb. It has been said by authorities of dramatic art that the hardest thing to do is to act without spoken lines, and yet the best pieces of acting was on Miss Elliott's entrance and her passage across the stage to the fireplace. Miss Elliot returns to the stage after an absence of seven years and according to New York critics she is as beautiful as ever and in her role as Lady Algy is seen to the best of advantage.
Mr. Faversham and Miss Elliott were supported by a very able cantt; Robert Ayrton as Brabazon Tudway, Phil Leigh as Mawley Jemmett, and Miss Mary Compton as Mrs. Barbazon Tudway, were especially good.
The people who were fortunate enough to see Lord and Lady Algy, will remove forever, the stigma that has rested upon the English people, that of not being able to be clever. The speeches which were intended to bring a laugh from the audience never failed, even though the jokes were supposed to be amusing. The touches in real paths that brought tears to the eyes of a good many of the audience, touches that come in every day life.
The audience was one of the most appreciative that Lawrence has kept.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 4. 1019.
Kansas branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers will meet at the home of Prof. F. H. Sibey Thursday night at 7:30 e'clock. The subject to be discussed by J. R. Mahan and J. R. Wahltedt is "Water Power Engineering."
French Cooties Come To Entomology Profs
Have you ever seen any real cooties of the French or German variety? If you haven't, go over to the entomology department where they have just received a shipment direct from France.
Worthie Hoor, a sophomore here in 1917, has sent a contribution of no mean importance to the entomology department. He collected plants for the department of botany during the summer of 1916 and when he went overseas with Battery B, he promised he would send some botanical specimens back for the benefit of those scientists on the Hill. In his letter that accompanied the coties he said that he found plants were very hard to get ready for shipment so he was sending something else.
The way the cooties were sent was unique. Hoor placed two cardboards together and then cut round holes in the top one. The next thing to do was to grab the cogies. This was comparatively simple he said. He then corralled the bugs in the holes and allowed the candle grease to drip in the holes. This pickled the animals in their original state. They would probably have been in a better state of preservation if they had been bathed in alcohol, according to Prof. Hungerford, but probably there was none at hand when the cooties were caught.

Senior President Asks University Convocation To Arouse Old Spirit
Bi-Monthly Meetings Favored by Most Students—Fakes Only Two Hours a Month
Two Hours a Month
"The best thing that could be done to bring the University out of the disorganized state owing to war conditions would be to have regular convocations at a time when students could attend," said Herman Hangen, president of the Senior class this morning.
"The old bi-monthly plan was the most successful that we have ever had. It takes only two hours a month from class work, but the results would more than pay for that. Besides giving entertainment to the students and allowing them to become acquainted with prominent figures in society, it would develop a much better school s irit, a thing which we certainly need."
"In my opinion there is no question whatever but what most of the students favor some such plan, especially those who were here before the bi-monthly convictions were given up three years ago.
When told that the heavy expense of arranging the gym for convocations, Mr. Hangan said, "If the pressure makes it inadvisable to have them in the gym, Fraser could be used for most of them. Convocations were held in Fraser three years ago, and by crowding and standing nearly everyone was accommodated. The same thing could be this year."
New Members Are Named For Men's Student Council
The following men were elected to the Men's Student Council: C. K. Matthews and John Bunn from the School of Engineering; Gail Wilson and Ray Hemhill from the College. One member will be elected from the two candidates of the School of Law at the next meeting.

Senate Will Consider Petitions For Changes In Dance Restrictions
To Appoint Committee to Revise University Constitution
The committee on student interests will make its report at the meeting of the University Senate today and the decision will be made by the Senate on the petitions submitted by the Women's Student Government Association and the Men's Student Council asking that the restrictions on the price of dances be raised and that students be permitted to hold some dances until 2 o'clock instead of having all dances close at 12 o'clock.
Eight additional members will also be elected to serve on the committee on reorganization of the University. This will make a total of twenty-one faculty members who will go over the University constitution and revise it. It may even that any of the regulations mentioned will consider suggestions for other changes to be made in the University regulations.
Several years ago a similar committee was appointed, who drew up the present constitution and at the suggestion of Chancellor Strong at a recent Senate meeting another committee has been appointed by the Senate to revise the present rulings.
Foch and Clemenceau Pictured in Lecture To University Audience
Mlle. Marguerite Clement Here For French High Commission
"The names of Foch and Clementean will be carved on every public building in France," according to a recent law passed by the Chamber of Deputies." Mile. Marguerite Clement, a member of the French High Commission to the United States told the University Monday. These two names sum up the finest qualities of the French, civilian and military."
Mademoiselle Clement told in a dramatic way the story of Clemencae, the "Tiger," at one time the most hated man of France, and now the most beloved by French and Aljies alike. Incidents of his boyhood and his career in America as well as of his important position at the present time. It was Clemenceau who averted war with Germany during his first year as premier, who attacked the class system in the army in the Dreyfus case, who edited L'Hamma Libr" for many years, who listened to the rotestations of the Alsatian delegation in the assembly after the war of 1870, and who made Foch head of the School of War.
She then told the tax position of Foch in the hearts of the French people, characterizing him as the most beautiful, gentle soul of France. "Everything went right in the war whereover Foch was," was Mamoreville Clement said. "He saved the day at the first battle of Nancy, he turned the Germans at the first battle of the Marne, he persuaded the English not to retreat from Ypres, he was on the Italian front and held them to the ground, and he killed them by the German power at Chateau Thierry." Foch, also one is of the noted Frechmen who was in the war of 1870.
Woman's Basketball Games
To Be Played Wednesday
The woman's basketball games, which will be played in the gym Wednesday night, February 5, will start promptly at 7:00 o'clock. The first game will be between the freshman and sophomore classes and immediately following will come the contest between the juniors and seniors.
These games are open to all women in the University and each woman that attends may invite a man. The price of admission is a W.A.M. member ticket "twenty-five cents" there and a dress "five thirds of an eau de laumière" in every admission.
A war employment bureau at the University of Illinois assists all former students who are returning from military service to obtain positions in civil life.

Coon Dog Fails To Find Possums
WANTED: By the faculty of the department of zoology, one possum dog.
Great conservation exists in the basement of Snow Hall. It's all because Van's dog is a coon dog instead of a possum犬.
Last week the department* of zoology acquired two possums which were caged in the basement. They were safely incased Saturday night when the guardians left but Monday morning, when the professors arrived the door of the strong cave was open and the possums had fed.
They had disappeared, into the labyrinth of dark shelves and closets which make up the basement of Snow Hall. They searched and searched but no possums could be found. They sent an S.O.S. for Van, the animal man who came and brought his biggest dog.
The dog sniffed around a bit but positively refused to become interested. Possums were beneath his interest. He was a coon dog.
And now there is weeping and lamination among the department-- also a want ad. For no possum dog hag has been found—and certain janixtures around the basement have a strong tooth for possum pie.
Plain Tales From the Hill
The Kappa Sigs are said to be petitioning Phi Beta Kappa for admission of the entire fraternity since Kappa Sigs made second in the Hellic scholarship list and since the Disciplinary Committee has given you to do still better, having limited Kappa Sig to one dance the rest of the year.
Why have any seats at the flower-orsock anyway? Those who had standing room last night said they had a fine time between acts. They sat down on the floor and had a very congenial time. No one stepped on them. It was more democratic and they could all get together better. Now if they would adopt this Chinese custom for the whole audience, they would sit in the circle with "Simon Says Thumbs Up" between acts.
The only drawback is that it would accommodate a lot more people and that large crowd of men who invited girls to go to the show and then called up at the last minute to say that they forgot to get the tickets and that they were all gone would have to think up another excuse.
One frsh here is attending church regularly now. He has a job with one of the city papers to cover sems.
Some girls just aren't satisfied with going to a dance themselves. They have to have their whole wardrobe there to be happy. Vera Gano had three dresses at the Varsity Saturday night. Well, 'Steve's clothes are getting a rest now anyway.
More Side lights on the play:
More than digits on the play.
Virginia Melvin will never be the same again. Since Maxine Elliot shook hands with her last night, her vision for ordinary mortals has sutdenly become very much impaired.
One young woman expressed the sentiments of most of her sex, after seeing Faversham. She was on the car and was still raving over the book: "Oh, Oh, oh, I'll never look at another man under forty as long as I live!"
It isn't it fun "recreating" after the basketball games at the gymnasium? The question is where do all the girls come from after the game, so that the men who to "stag" it up there have people to dance with? During the same Saturday night, only a few dates were in evidence, but most must start the girls were all there ready to start the "shimmy."
"Where did you come from baby dear?
but of the everywhere into the here."

Kansas Working Hard For This Week's Games With Aggies' Quintet
Jayhawkers Feel Race In Missouri Valley Is Young Yet
Missouri Well in Lead Now
Manhattan Team Shows Well in State Contests With Veteran Players
Standing of the Teams:
Won Lost Pet.
Missouri 6 0 1.000
Nebraska 1 0 1.000
Kansas 1 3 250
Ames 1 3 250
Washington 0 2 000
Drake 0 1 000
Kansas Aggies 0 0 000
With but two days left in which to prepare for the series with the Kansas Agies in Manhattan Thursday and Friday, Coach Hamilton is putting his men through hard workouts with the freshmen and coaching them on passing and goal shooting. Although the Jahawker quintet dropped a pair of games to Missouri last week, the men are capable of playing good basketball and are determined to show a reversal of form against the Manhattan basketleers. The race in the Missouri Valley is young yet and Kansas still has a chance to finish near the top.
Missouri is now far in the lead in the championship race with six games won and none lost, and the Tigers appear to be well on the road to another title. The Nebraska Cornhuskers have not yet been defeated in the Valley, but they have played only one game, when they swamped Drake under a big score. But the Ames Aggies also defeated Drake, and by almost as large a score as that registration, the Huskies. By comparative scores, the two must beat braska and Ames are about equal in strength, and that Kansas has at least as good a team as either of the northern schools.
Little is known of the real strength of the Kansas Aggie team, although the Manhattan five has won several games from Kansas Conference quintets. The Aggies defeated Washburn, 32-20, early in the season and later won from the Haskell Indians by almost the same score. The Aggies have two veterans in Captain Johnny Clarke All-Vaillage guard last year, and Hinds, forward on last year's quintet. One of the best men on the team now is Bunger, a forward, who has been the most consistent scorer of the year. Jennings, another new man, is showing good form at center, and the other members of the quintet are from last year's freshman outfit.
Coach Rutherford's Washington team has met only the Missouri Tigers this year and both games, but the Pikers never show real form until late in the year and will probably cause several teams trouble later. The Pikers have Captain Marquard, All-Vaillay center of last year, who plays on the team and will be one of the best pivots in the west. Russell, a forward and a scrappy player, is another veteran of the Washington team.
Eighty Medics Want Pay for S.A.T.C. Work
The War Department has been petitioned by eighty former members of the University S.A.T.C. for their back pay from December 1917 when they were mustered in as members of the medical reserve until they were released from service last December. The recent release of the conscientious objectors at Leavenworth after being given their back pay, allotments and other privileges is said to have suggested the petition.
The petition is another attempt of the medical students to obtain recognition for the services rendered the Government especially during the influenza epidemic. The medical students were not transferred into the S.A.T.C. and received no pay during the time they were connected with the S.A.T.C. In spite of this they were subjected to rigid military discipline which they said interfered greatly with their studies.
On November 20, 1918, a meeting of medical students was held to protest against the treatment they had received and a petition was sent to the War Department at that time, but it was apparently ineffective and no action has been taken yet.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate student going to go further than merely printing the news on a paper roll. The faculty holds; to play no favoriter; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to be patient; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the university; to qualify the students of the University.

IN SUPPORT OF THE TEAM
There was some talks about salvaging the barracks. No hurry, however, is needed in arranging to tear down the buildings as they beautify the campus, promote the growth of grass, and are perfectly fire and vandal proof. Besides, the time allotted for their removal is two or three years, according to the speed made in razing North College.
During the football season, the University student looks to the cheerleaders as heroes. The inspiration to the team that comes through the concerted cheering brought about by their leadership almost glorifies them in the eyes of the average student.
But when basketball season comes, the University student is forced to admit, "We haven't any cheerleader."
The University band has been playing at the basketball games. Crowds larger than usual have been attending. We have a strong, fighting team.
Yet the students are supporting this team by promiscous shouts and scraggy, unregulated, and unconcerted Rock Chalks. Students are backing the team, no doubt of it, but their support would be more appreciative and definite if the cheerleaders were at the games to unify the cheering.
The enrollment of the University of Oregon shows an increase of sixteen per cent over that of last year And that university had the S.A.T.C too!
HOGGING RESERVE BOOKS
A few of the students in the University need to be reminded that books placed on the reserve shelf are not placed there for the benefit of an individual student and particularly that they are not to be taken from the library.
Perhaps if the student who takes a book from which an instructor expects twenty or thirty-five students to get an assignment, be one of those unfortunate individuals who are unable to see the book, he might realize his unfairness.
A ruling providing severe punishment for people who remove from the library books on reserve is designed to protect the other students but oftentimes the guilty person is not detected. Unless only one member of the class appears with the assignment it is difficult to fix the blame.
It is a question of honor and if each student does his part no one will have to suffer.
At Princeton, the regulation freshman headdress is a black skull cap. Remember this, freshmen, and be jolly when the freshman cap edict goes into effect at the University of Kansas next spring.
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
CLUBS OF YESTERDAY
"There's many a club," said the old-time student, "that lived and flourished for a time and then faded away or merged with some other society.
"Now, take this for example," and he held out a clipping from the University Daily Kansan dated in the spring of 1912. "This contains a list of about sixty-five organizations, of which number fifteen are gone today, and the most of the remainder are not considered as clubs."
"Why, even the senior class invitation committee was called a club those days, along with the cap and gown and class day committees. Here, too, along with the Men's Student Council and Women's Student Government Association we find the Good Government Club!
"Being of a legal turn of mind, you can understand why I find pleasure in the fact that the School of Engineering was included in the 1912 list of clubs.
"Here are two organizations that I am afraid to say anything about for fear some of the men in school now will imitate them. They are the 'Military Company' and Company A, National Guards, both put down in the list of clubs. What I am afraid of is that some ex.S.A.T.C. men will get together and start a Students' Army Training Club.
"Of course, while many of these clubs have disappeared, others have come in. The University, I believe, is as adequately represented by clubs now as in 1912 even if we don't call the School of Engineering a club."
The old Kansan article quotes W. R. Castle, Jr., then assistant dean of Harvard College, in giving the advantages of college clubs. Two facts tending toward democracy are given: "Active membership can be for a few years only; and the fact that people are taken in at an age when the rough edges are more easily smoothed off."
"There are men," Mr. Castle is quoted, "who at first drifted aimlessly, but who, after joining some club, were forced into some line of activity and were thereby made, from the college point of view, worth-while."
GUNSTOCK TREES AS MEMORIALS
This country needs more black walnut, says the Federal Department of Agriculture. Somebody has started a movement to have each community set out trees in memory of its soldiers of the world war. The great value of the soldiers is based on the protection of sane government. It is one of the mechanical laws that black walnut is necessary for the best results in making the stocks of guns. This country was searched more completely for the special wood for that purpose than for any other one item of war necessity. There may be another war, and at least men will need many guns for centuries. Then a national need and a sentimental duty may be attended to at the same time. Plant black walnut trees and have them marked as memorials for the soldiers. Even if that be attended to up to the limit for one such tree for each man who gave himself for his country in the 100,000 new black walnut trees by more than 40,000 new one of the soldiers. Even if that be attend- grove of walnuts. The department of Agriculture says the scarcity of black walnut because of its large use for war means that it will be short for the great demand for making cabinet materials, musical instruments and furniture. A bulletin has been issued to show the people how and where to plant the trees, and all are invited to help—Worcester Telegram.
An American soldier took an English girl to see a game of baseball in London, according to a story told by Lord Dunmore. "If there is anything you want explained" said the doughboy, "tell me. I guess a lot of things seem meaningsless," replied the girl, "and some things idiotic" the girl seems to be idiotic? "Well," was the answer, "why do you call the seets the stands?"—Outlook.

Dear Roomie:
He asked me to go to the movies on a midweek night. So I just snuk out and went. Then he asked me again and we went again. And the next night we went again. But about the time I got home that third night, the Student Council called me up and warned me not to go any more. They said they had seen me three times. Now I'm a freshman and I not too much interested in W. G. S. A. by sight so that I can avoid them. But I am afraid to get acquainted with them if they are after me, How can I work it?
Nearly half our war work was the abolition of waste in a system of which we had been boastfully proud. Boards and commissions without number were combined and co-operation where competition had been compulsory.
Little Girl.
My dear:
I'm not a member of W. S. G. A., and I won't tell them about you, but it seems to me you are awfully mistaken about your dates. It's all right to have them but I wouldn't if I were you. You see, the point is not simply that it is against the rules, and bad for the University to have its students disobey the rules. But it is going to be an act of girlhood who has mid-week dates very often hurts her reputation on the Hill. The girls who refuse to have dates on school nights won't do a thing for her, and pretty soon she will find herself out of the class she wants to be in. That's straight. Roomie.
War taught the danger of waste. It gave rise to sermons on the sinful garbage box, the wickedness of gluttony and the disgrace of gaudy display.
DON'T WASTE LESSONS
We saw idle acres and idle men in a famine struck world. We saw all that we had, but without its power to produce efficiently and use economically.
We saw labor in chaos, hunting and missing jobs that were in turn hunting and missing them. We saw streams of workers passing through plants multiplying to work. We models multiplied in pure perversity of diversity.
We saw two railroads doing work less efficiently than one could do it. We saw firms using more energy to fight competitors than to produce businesses that were sites implicated until the streets were crowded and business delayed.
We gathered up the fragments, lived the gospel of the clean plate, patched our clothes and swept up atlues and basements for useful junk.
When this was done we looked around for a bigger job. It soon became plain that we had only been playing with economy—that we had been saving at the spigot and wasting at a tremendous bungehole.
told manufacturers how many styles of shoes, stoves, hats, beds and other articles could be made. The manufacturers liked this so well that they are now complaining because the restrictions are removed.
The national government called in employers and told them how to hire and fire without criminally wasteful "labor turnover." When employers were dull of understanding a school or college business. Now the employers propose to continue the school at their own expense.
We had only just begun the job, but untold millions of dollars of waste were eliminated.
We are going to need those untold millions in the future, to meet the war debts and the new social work that will be required to make democracy safe for the world. We will need other untold millions that can be saved by the new methods of production and economy that we learned during the war.
The most wasteful of all jung kills would be one into which we should cast the lessons the war has taught.—Philadelphia North American.
Answer—This is one of the questions impossible to answer, since history does not carry us back to the beginnings of civilization and government. Doubless there were rulers long before the first kings of whom the world now has knowledge. One of the very earliest whose name has been preserved was Men, or Mena, the first king of the First Dynasty in Egypt. He reigned about the year 4777 B. C., or nearly 67 centuries ago. There were “kings” in Egypt before his time, but they were perhaps only local rulers; Mena seems to have been the first to unite Egypt into one kingdom. Of those earlier rulers the first whose name has been preserved was Ap. In Babylonian history the earliest whose name has come down to us was En-sag-kus-anna, who is thought to have reigned before 4500 B. C., or more than 6400 years ago—Current Events.

INDUSTRAL REFORMS JAPAN NEWS
Popular Prices Tables For Ladies
Dr. Tellici Sakata, professor of the Higher School of Technology, contributes to the Tokio Chuo a series of articles on the future of the financial world and the improvement of technical education in Japan. He emphasizes the importance of developing industries rather than increasing armaments, especially now that the world war has practically come to a close. He draws lessons from the great industrial development of the United States. In Japan the relations between employers and employees are not very close, which is a lamentable fact. Persons who have habits of extravagance are self-indulgent, depending upon their monetary power, whereas the employees work only for their pay. If the employee does not get enough pay they leave. This condition is harmful to the sound development of industries in Japan and also from the educational point of view—East and West News.

Maxine Elliott Yearns For Life on a Farm So She Tells Student
Star in "Lord and Lady Algy"
Finds University Audience
Unusually Appreciative
"My idea of perfect happiness is life on a farm," said Maxine Elliott rather wearily, as the ninth "super" approached her behind the scenes, and asked her to write her name on his program. Miss Elliott is starring with William Faversham in "Lord and Lady Algy" which was presented at the Bowersock展. The night the glorious velvet-and-rose riding costume which appeared in the second act, but the whip drooped in her hand, and she looked completely tired out—a marked contrast to her stage presence.
"Your University women are much prettier," said Miss Elliott, "than the women who appeared in the ball-room scene in Kansas City. They are more youthful, and freshly attractive."
"I am very, very tired," she said. "We've had a number of 1-night stands, and this week will be a continuation of them." Faversham's company will play in Topola tonight and Wichita Wednesday night. "But it's worth the extra effort to play to university audience. People in UniTeach are incredibly intelligent and appreciative. Students are youthful and exuberant. They are enthusiastic, and meet players more than half-way."
Maxine Elliott asked the "super" how many men in the University had served in the war, where they are now, and whether the University has a distinct military unit in France. Her interest in the war is very genuine, for she gave two years, 1915 and 1916, to relief work in Belgium. Half her fortune, which was considerable, was spent in building homes for the refugee women and children of that devastated country.
Miss Elliott is enthusiastic-bershef She was interested in the amateur dramatic work done in the University and questioned the lucky "super" who had been a performance artist of length as to dramatic activities and productions at K. U.
Miss Elliott is a perfect example, according to her managers, of the new spirit between England and America. She is very fond of both countries, and has an English home and one on this side. She has divided her time about evenly between the two countries, but she last few years. Miss Elliott is what stage people call a "road star"—she plays to capacity houses and is as fully appreciated all over the United States as she is in New York.
Faversham and Ellott are among the few remaining members of the old school of artists, which included Sothern, Marlowe, Maude Adams, and Henry Miller. The stars in "Lord Lady Jadagh" led the establishment of the old Empire Stock Company of New York, a dramatic organization with which most of the best known American and English actors of the past fourth century were affiliated.

Native of India Tells Of Conditions in India Before Graduate Club
Parahaman Singh, a native of India, who is taking work for a doctor's degree in the University of Kansas, gave an interesting talk of his own life and native country, before the Graduate Club Saturday. Miss Lulu Brookwalter, who has been a missionary to India for six years and thoroughly undertakes the natives and their customs, told of the traditions and bribe she used the native symbols and depicted the length of time taken to write an Indian song illustrating it by Indian music.
"America a Fountain of Learning for Us," Said Pardaman Singh
"He who is in a hurry is deficient of common sense," said Miss Brook-
Mr. Singh is a graduate of a northern Punjab University of India and belongs to the Sikh people or the Soldiers. He has traveled 18,000 miles since leaving India, in 1914 intending to go to France or Germany to study industry and commerce with the intention of applying his knowledge of it to India. He reached the Suez Canal as war was declared and proceeded to England where he studied law and medicine, but soon left for the United States arriving in California.
"I consulted several catalogues of universities," said the speaker," and decided to come to the University of Kansas because I believed that it offered me the best course, in sociology and economics."
"We hear little of the backward nations. As long ago as 2000 B. C," continued Mr. Singh, "but the Aryan race came from Asia minor into India and conquered the people. They divided the natives into four castes; Kshatriyas or the warriors; Vaisyas or farmers and the Sundras or menial laborers."

The speaker told of the universities which were developed, six 'of which are famous for solving theories of the Universe. He explain the philosophy of India and the Brahmain, Buddhist and other Hindu religions.
"Early in the history of India," he continued, "art of all kinds was wide spread. About 400 A. D. Chinese students went to India. In 600 A. D. other foreigners went there. There was a good educational environment." Every village had a small republic and each had its own officials and merchants.
"There were eighteen famies between 1100 and 1745," Mr. Singh continued, "but between 1876 and 1900 there were many more. The training of the Indian people has been too much toward asceticism and people coming from the outside have taken advantage of her resources.
"Universities were established throughout India and were supported by contributions of the people and the princes. It was a custom in India to hold a period of fasting every five years and to spend at that time, any taxes collected by the princess for the benefit of the people.
caused a change in this condition. The people of India weathered the storm of Mohammedan and in 1600 A. D. were flourishing. The Portuguese and English, however, soon came to India and conditions were worse again."
"Agriculture, art and commerce were all in good condition but the Mohammedans came from Arabia and
"The Oriental people are being awakened; Japan has learned her lesson," he said, "and they are beginning to know that they cannot always remain secluded at home. Many of them have travelled to Asia and other western countries to gain knowledge that they may take back to their own countries.
"The United States is a fountain of learning for us," he concluded. She stands for the democracy that President Wilson is so nobly upholding and that Abraham Lincoln secured for the slave class."
Mr. Singh displayed the process of making several beautiful Indian shawls and tapestries which he brought with him from India.

Kansan Asks Publicity For Senate Meetings
A request handed to the University Senate from the Daily Kansan, asking that representatives of the paper be allowed to attend meetings of the Senate, was not taken up at Tuesday's meeting. It will be introduced at a later session, according to Prof. L. E. Sissen.
The object of the request of the Karsen was to enable the student paper to gain a fair and accurate view of the proceedings of the Senate. The presentatives would have the status of reporters, reporting action taken by the faculty organization.
Engineers Formulate Plans For the Kansas Engineer
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 5, 1919.
That the Kansas Engineer will be published as usual this year, was the decision of the governing board of the Associated Engineering Societies of the University of Kansas, which met last night and elected officers, the new officers are: Rex L. Brown, e19, Horsen Hardy; B. Palskowkey, e19, vice president; and Leon A. Sherwood, e19, secretary-treasurer.
The governing board will meet again in a few days when the editorial staff for this year's magazine will be elected. Although definite plans for the issue this year have not yet been made, the board will contain a record of the war work of the school of Engineering, said Dean Shand today.
The Kansas Engineer, which was founded in 1915, is an annual publication of the Associated Engineering Societies. The governing board of the associated societies consists of two members: one member of civil, architectural, mechanical, mining, electrical and chemical engineering.

Department Withdraws Objections to Immediate Change
Student Opinion Favorable
Failed to See Reason for Delaying Until Third
Term
The Senate ruling that the work required from students in the department of physical education be put on a pre-war basis in the third quarter was changed to read that the ruling take effect immediately, at the regular meeting of the Senate Tuesday afternoon. Dissatisfaction on the part of the upperclassmen and a change of opinion by the department of physical education were the reasons given for the change.
Students generally failed to see why, if the change was considered beneficial for the third term, it should not be considered so immediately. The department of physical education said the change immediately would throw the depriment into great confusion and result in inconvenience to the students required to take work there. Since that time the department has withdrawn its objections to the change, it was said.
From now on each school will decide the number of hours of physical education for its students. The College requires three hours a week for freshmen and two hours for sophomores, and none for juniors and sen-

Jayhawk Track Team Taking Daily Workout For Meet With Aggies
Coach Hamilton Not Rosy Over Coming Contest at Manhattan
Freshman Squad Promising
Varsity Feels Lack of Old Men Who Haven't Come
Out
Preparation for the first track meet of the season, the annual indoor meet with the Kansas Aggies on the Nichols Gymnastics track at Manhattan, is taking all the spare time of Coach W. O. Hamilton and his Jayhawker track candidates this week. Although a fairly large squad in working out in the gymnastium every afternoon prospects for a winning team are not promising this year, according to Coach Hamilton.
The team is without a hurder and the Kansas coach is hoping that "Tub" Hobart, hurder on last year's team, will show up for practice soon Joseph Schwarz, a sprinter who showed promised last year, has not been out for practice and his appearance would strengthen the sprinting department a great deal. Captain Dorman O'Leary is working out every afternoon and will be in shape for the Aggie meet. O'Leary will probably run against Needley and Gallagher, the Aggie speedsters, in the quarter mile and will also run in the relay. The Manhattan team is especially strong in the quarter mile this year and it is reported from Manhattan that the team has two men who can cover that distance in 52 seconds.
BANKING HARD ON RODKEY
Another middle distance man of promise is Morle Clift. Clift was one of the fastest, men on the squast last year and should be a strong cog in the relay team. He also runs the 220-yard dash in fast time. Ralph Rockey, letter man last year, will enter the half mile and possibly the quarter. Rockey is also the hope of Kansas in the high jump, as he has cleared the bar at 5 feet $8\frac{1}{2}$ inches. Marshal Haddock, all around athlete, will be the hope of the Jayhawkers in the sprints and the weight events. Heddock took third place in the Pentathlon at the Penn Ray games last year and will be good for several points in any Valley meet.
Charley Heizer, football man, is the most promising pole vaulter on the squad. He has cleared the bar at 10 feet and was second in the best milers in the Valley this year, as he has covered the distance is less than 4 minutes and 50 seconds
and is developing rapidly. Hamna, a letter man on the cross country team, is out for the 2-mile. Ogleivie, a distance man from last year's team, appears as the stamina and should develop into a point winner in the distance runs.
FRESHMAN SQUAD PROMISING
The Jachiwak team has a new puma contains material that is really promising and Coach Hamilton is enthusiastic over the showing the first year men are making. Jackson and Chandler from Westport high school will make good Varsity material next year. Jackson is a hurdler and a spinner while Chandler has polevailed 10 feet 6 inches. Roy Pringle, is out for the weights and the hurdles. Pringle has the size and strength to make him one of the Valley's best men in the field events. In Sexton, he plays at Locustbush school, Coach Hamilton believes he has one of the fastest men ever seen in Robinson gymnasium. Sexton's form is almost perfect and he continually beats the Varsity sprinters in practice.
Coach Hamilton has written to the manager of Convention Hall in Kansas City accepting March 21 as the date for the Kansas-Missouri annual indoor track meet, and expects to receive a contract for the meet on that date soon.
Iphigenia, Lonely Priestess
Is Rescued by Her Brother
Orestes, Captured for Sacrified Finds Sister the Destined Executioner
Miss Dorothea Spinney, the noted English dramatist, will come Thursday to give the Greek play Iphigenia in Tauris, for the students of the University and the people of Lawrence, in Fraser Chapel.
The following is a short synopsis of the story of the play:
"The Iphigenia in Tauris of Euripides is motivated by the poet's desire to add mystery and "variety to his plot by laying it in an out-of-the-way corner of the world. A wild sea beats on a still wilder shore inhabited by a people to whom pity to the stranger is unknown. The temple on the beetling cliff reeks with blood of human sacrifice, and the priestess is a Grecian maiden serving against her will. Artemis, the friend of maids, had saved her from her father's sacrificing knife and brought her to this barbarous shine. Here we meet her as the play opens." She has had a disquieting dream which she interprets to mean that Orestes, her brother, is dead. We see at once that her heart is not that of a barbarous priestess but of a homesick girl.
"The second part of the prologue begins the establishment of the contact with her homeland which is the thread that runs through the play--her brother and his bosom friend have come on a secret mission to Taurica. Orestes seeks atonement for his sin. He must find it, so runs the god's path. He moves far country and brings back to Grecian the image of the goddess. The barbarins capture the Greeks and bring them to the temple for the sacrifice
Dutch Wedell Returns Soon to Resume Duty As Y.M.C.A. Secretary
"Then follows a well-handled recognition scene, as a result of which Orestes and Iphigenia join forces in an attempt to escape with the image of Artemis. The play ends with the ghostly lyrics are full of sea-light and the clash of waters.' 'One of the most beautiful of Euripides' extant plays.'
Hugo "Dutch" Wedel, former X. M. C. A.; secretary will return to the University either today or tomorrow, and you are received from him by Prof. E. F. Wardt.
War Work Council to Continue Three Men Here Until

K. U, Quill Club, Elects Thirteen New Members
At the meeting last night, the Quill Club took in thirteen new members, out of the proposed thirty-six. The names of these new members of the club will not be published until the list is completed.
Willard Wattles, the University poet, entertained the listeners with bits from his camp experience. His main talk, however, was an interesting account of the development of poetry in this country to its present status. He interpreted motives in writing, his viewpoint being that life is full of interesting subjects, that we must get down to the "grass roots"—talk about the things we know and in a simple interesting way.
He gave a number of readings from poems he has written. He especially paid tribute to the late Joyce Kilmie as the greatest of recent poets.
Announcements
The second cabinet of the Y. W. C. A. will not hold its regular meeting Thursday but will meet with the first cabinet at 7:15 o'clock Thursday in the Y. W. C. A. office at Myers Hall.

Coach Miller Verifies Report of No Baseball At Missouri This Spring
Four-Quarter Plan Makes Schedule Impossible This
Year
The report received here earlier in the year that Missouri would not have a baseball team this year was verified by Coach Miller last week when the Tiger basketball team was here. The Tiger coach said four quarter plan at Missouri would make it almost impossible to play baseball, although the sport would probably be revived next year. Coach Miller had charge of the Missouri baseball team last year.
Kansas has six games schedule with Ames, however, and will have a team. If no other school in the Valley has a nine, games can be played with Kansas conference teams.

Dean Blackman will go to Toppea on each Thursday for the six weeks in which the coffe is held. He will be at the family's Relation to Health."
Caps Will Appear Soon, Upperclassmen Predict
The Men's Student council apparently has overlooked it in considering the possibility of a strike.
Freshman caps will make their appearance before long, is the general student opinion. The S.A.T.C. made the caps impossible last quarter and one does not hear the freshman cap as much as the upper-classmen as in years past.
“It’s a safe bet the freshmen will wear the caps this year,” said a junior in bearing the tradition discussed today. “The last vote upon the question only abolished paddling and not the caps. The caps will be worn. Just wait until spring arrives.”
Harley Scott Names Committee Members For Freshman Class
Chairman of All Committees Eligible According to Senate Rules
Plans the Freshman Frolic
Outing and Jayhawker Committees Will Be Named in Spring
Harley J. Scott, president of the freshman class, announced the class committees today. He announced seven committees, with probable addition of two more in a few weeks. The unusual delay in making the committee chair is due to slight difficulty on account of eligibility of some of the members.
"All chairmen of committees have been checked up and found eligible by the University Senate Eligibility Committee," said Scott this morning. "The social committee will have complete charge of any social affair the class decides to put on this year, and it is hoped that the class will establish a precedent this year in the way of a freshman frolic.
The committees announced are: Social: Byron Shutz, chairman Louis K. Kendall, Charles Blair, Earl C. Stanton, Jessie Martindale, Katherine Smith, Lucile Clark and Tulie-Louise Shephard, ex-officio member, freshman representative of the Women's Student Council.

Tendency in Other Universities Is Toward Early Closing of All Parties
Dances to Start Earlier
Rules Regarding Management and Cost Referred to Committees
Rule III governing student social affairs was amended to read:
Formal dances may be held until 1 a.m., according to the action of the University Senate Tuesday.
STYLE IS FOR EARLY CLOSING
"Dancing parties may be given only on Friday and Saturday nights and on nights immediately preceding a school holiday. They must close at 12 p. m., except that all-University parties, parties by individual schools, the Junior Promenade, the Sophomore Hop, and one formal dance of each established student organization may continue until 1 a.m. Refreshments may not be served after the closing hours named."
STYLE IS FOR EARLY CLOSING Dr. Albert Corbin, adviser of women, in commenting on the new ruling said that the University is hardly keeping abreast of the times in extending the hour until 1 a.m. The tendency in other universities is toward early closing hours of all parties. Many students, however, feel that the hour should be extended, and if they are willing to open parties somewhat earlier, at 8 o'clock instead of 9 o'clock, the closing hour fixed would satisfy even those who wish to return to pre-war conditions, it was pointed out. The University of Indiana has made a rule closing all parties at 12. In Oregon the students themselves have taken the initiative and have recommended to the faculty that parties begin at 8 and close at 12 o'clock.
Senate Rule II concerning chaeras for dancing parties was amended to apply to any student or group of students as well as to organizations. Emphasis was placed on the second part of the rule, which forbids attendance at public dances by any student of the University.
Rule IV which regulates the cost of dances was referred to a committee composed of the Student Interests Committee and the Auditing Committee.
The rule regarding management of Varsity dances was referred to the Student Interests Committee and they were given power to act.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students at UCSB going on to go further than merely printing the news standing for their university, or to pay no favorizer; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to teach them to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the University, and to the students of the University.

TESTS OF CLASS ABILITY
Tom and Jerry will feel like unwelcome guests in the United States when three thousand saloons go out of business next year.
TESTS OF CLASS ABILITY The national bureau of education has suggested that the schools of the country employ psychology experts who have been conducting experiments in the army to do similar work in the city and public schools of the United States. These men would direct courses in efficiency and organization in the schools.
These men, it is argued, could establish a standard for promotion and efficiency among the school children. Mental tests could be used to find the mental attitude of the children who could be placed in classes according to their ability. Those having superior intelligence could be placed in a special class and allowed to work faster. The defective children would not hold the standard or the group back, the bureau of education believes.
The psychologists will be discharged from the army in a few months and the nation must take immediate action if it wishes to secure them for this work.
If this possible field of psychological work is developed, the possibilities of applied psychology as a profession will be greatly increased, and the subject will become more important and extensive as a college course.
Wichita chewed 272 miles of gun in 1918 at a cost of $2,000.
Ed Howe, who is spending the winter in Florida, thinks things are slow in the south. He says he saw a dog chasing a rabbit and both were walking.
Isn't it wonderful how the Kansas cheerleaders lead the crowds here in basket ball games?
THINGS THAT KILL
The student who walks on the Hill each morning, proclaiming loudly that he is not prepared for the quiz and that he doesn't have a lesson, should be excommunicated. The chances are that he has studied from four to six hours and that he will get an A in the quiz. He merely wants you to assure him that he is an excellent student, or else he goes in for worrying as an indoor and outdoor sport.
No one cares whether he has studied or not. No one is interested in whether anyone else has studied except himself. Modesty does not demand that the grind go about publish-
ng his own shortcomings, and shout-
ing his lack of knowledge from the
touse-tops. It bores others profusely.
Scientists say that if the total heat that the sun throws off is estimated it twenty-five million dollars, the amount received by this earth would be two cents. May the sun never die out and the stars cease to shine!
SPRING IS NOT HERE
If your February allowance has not yet arrived, and your bad checks are still coming in, and all the other girls are acquiring new spring hats and suits, the only thing to do is to be brave! The May weather will not last forever. The ground-hog is never dependable; so it's bound to be colder within a few days. Then your coat with the big fur collar, which was so elegant last September and which is so dismal now, will not be such a trial.
Don't look on the stylish creature in the long, svetle skirt with enky. Keep your chin elevated, and act as if you are as good as she is, even though you know you aren't. Her mind of course is at rest, but that does not help her difficulty in locomotion. There are draw-hacks, even to being in the height of style.
If the strain of seeing others in their ultra-up-to-date things proves too great, you might try fixing up your old clothes until funds arrive. The new hats nearly all have a touch of red about them. Drape a piece of an old midly tie about the last spring's relic, and see if the effect is not the same. Take the hem out or your suit skirt, and wrap it tightly about you. Secure it with thread or pins, and no one will ever know the difference. Be sure that it is practically impossible for you to travel about, and your success is assured.

Below the surface of the soil is the angleworm. The world waited for the intellect of a Darwin to discover that this silent denizen of earth opens the pores of the soil, in which the water penetrates the roots of plants, and every seven years lays a new coat of soil an inch thick over the earth's surface. From every part of the broken furrow hasten an maze of busy ants, the smallest of the pin-head, one-fourth of the world's greatest scientists after studying the habits of ants for years, "is the most marvelous atom in the universe." The ant was using his herd of dairy life and making use of their rich excretion long before man knew the virtues of the milk cow.
The green leaf is born to blush unobserved, if not unseen. Yet it is the greatest manufacturing plant in existence. It has the power of mixing the human breath with water, making grape sugar, which is transformed into human food in the form of starch. For power, the leaf strains out the red and blue rays of sunlight, surpassing the achievements of Edison or Ford in ingenuity and efficiency.
On the featured plume of the gold-erred witness the 'genius of the ballooning spider. Being prepared for his aerial journey, he has selected a favorite vantage point and begun to emit jets of liquid silk from his spinners, which when hardened give sailage surface to the wind.
Does it not seem that common things are interesting and worth while? Yet familiarity breeds contempt, and we set our affections on things remote.
Do not overlook the humble toad, who has located in a wet spot of earth, where his skin is absorbing the water on its back. The only organ by which he can drink.
In preparing a nation for the world struggle the value of the crumb of bread, the lump of sugar, the copper cent, receive great emphasis. Here is our great educational gold mine which years of peace and plenty have left unworked and neglected.—Teaching
Intelligence tests, like those given in the army, were given to the students of the University of Idaho. Thirty-six per cent of the students were rated as high superior, 38 per cent as superior, 20 per cent as high average, and 5 per cent as average. The men showed a higher degree of intelligence than the women, for 40 per cent of the men were high superior, as compared to 29 per cent of the women.

I tried till 3 a. m, to mouch my hair like Miss Elliott's but couldn't make it look the same. How do you suppose she does it?      Vivian.

It might be a wig—there is enough of it. But don't be discouraged and give up too easily. Of course you have nothing to do but practice the Maxine side-part, and practice makes perfect. Roomie.
Dear Vivian:
The librarian at Spooner is so good-looking that I want to meet him. I feel that he is a good dancer, too, and want to become acquainted with him on that account. Is there any way I can do so? Katherine.
Dear Roomie:
It is easy enough to get acquainted with a public personage like a librarian. You can talk loudly in the reading room so that he will have to come over to reprimand you. You can lose your assignments and go up to ask him what he thinks you ought to read. And you can always ask him to hunt up yards of references for you. These excuses will make an opportunity for him to get acquainted with you if he wants to. Roomie.

Plain Tales From the Hill
After seeing Maxine Elliott do it so well, the University girl philosophizes thus:
"Come on, thou pale pink cigarette that'hail at land of minaret. And let thy fragrant incense roll To gas my throbbing, sapient soul."
"Avaint, respectability,
Bohemia's the life for me;
Too long I've lived with prudence
pale.
Gadzooks! I wish I could inhale."
The men want five members on the honor systems discipline committee to the women's four because they think men will be up before the committee more regularly than the women? Oh, is that the reason? We thought that it was just because it took five men to teach four women in forming judgments.

Have you noticed the peppery cheerleaders at the basket ball games this year? The K.U. cheerleaders are not annoying anyone with their gestures and screeching this season.
John Ise "When I see some of the boys across the road in their gym suits I begin to wonder what's happening to the race. It would take a dozen of some of them to make a dust mop."
IT DOES HAPPEN THOUGH

it's a grand and glowing feeling to have the opportunity for the big parties of the year ask another man to her sorority party?
A freshman was invited to take dinner with the Alemannia Club. When he returned home his friends asked him if the Club talked German or Norwich now.
"Neither," replied the frosh, "They talk Current Events."
Those at the show Monday night will remember the ballroom scene in which some of the local dramatic club talent played a leading part. It seems that Lucie Hovey, according to her testimony was more fortunate than the rest of the girls, who were the star of the scene. For she openly confesses that she drew a REAL man while the other girls nad as their partners just University fellows.
SPEAKING OF GIFTS
All kinds of packages have been coming from France this year, containing everything from love-bracelets and lace handkerchiefs and collars to egg-cups and German war-crosses. Miss Charles of the English department has them all beat when it comes to receiving novel presents: a foreign letter that he sent to the other day; a set of wristbands were enclosed with complimentals of one of her students. Yes, Phyllis, they were dead ones.
The Phi Kappa Pais need some new curtains according to the Alpha Delta Pis. The girl say so themselves.
SPRING ISN'T HERE YET ANYWAY
SPRING HIS P T HEIR
Coach Jay Bod was keeping time at the basketball game and sitting behind Rashid T. Church, c'20, Church he placed his hat under the chair he was sitting on. When the time for the end of the half arrived Bond pulled out his pistol and fired it under Church's chair. The result was a 2-inch hole in the top of Church's new spring hat.
THIRSTY WOMEN AT LAST GET DRINK
Members of the woman's basketball teams have developed a great interest in the dances given in the gymnasium after Friday night basketball games. Last week two bottles of distilled water were left after the dance and for the first time since the basketball season opened, the women were not forced to wait until they reached their homes to relieve their thirst.
BACK TO NATURE
Why have any seats at the Bowersock anyway? Those who had standing room last night said they had a fine time between acts. They sat down on the floor and had a very congenial time. No one stepped on them. It was more democratic and they could all get together better. Now they custom for the whole audience they could all sit in a circle and play 'Simon Says Thumbs Up' between acts.
The only drawback is that it would accommodate a lot more people and that large crowds of men who had invited girls to go to the show and then called up at the last minute to say that they were all gone, and that they were all gone, would have to think up another excuse.
PACING THE HARD TRUTH
Some of the engaged men on this hill think they are very much henpecked. Sunday night two of them

Union Rally Will End Celebration By C.E. Of 38th Anniversary
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Church
Students Will Speak at Meeting Tonight at Presbyterian Church
A union rally at the Presbyterian Church tonight, and dinner at the Methodist Church Friday are the remaining features of the program for the celebration of the 38th anniversary of the founding of the Christian Endeavor Society, which is being held this week by the young people's societies of Lawrence.
J. Godfrey Stutz, c'21, is to lead the rally tonight and about a dozen speakers, most of them students, will give short talks. Carl Brown, Mrs. Frye, and Roberta Bair will furnish special music.
Herbert Smith, of Bolenge, Africa and D. O. Cunningham, of Mohoba India, both missionaries who have returned to this country quite recently, will speak at the dinner Friday night. Miss Daisy June Trout, secretary of the Christian Woman's Board of Missions, and the Rev. J. W. Shell, pastor of the Gordon Place Methodist Church of the Kansas City will speak. A mixer will follow the dinner.
Miss Ethel Clark, chairman of the committee arranging the meetings said this morning that tickets for the dinner would be on sale at the rally tonight, but that sale of tickets must close Thursday morning.
The series of meetings will close next Sunday night with Decision Day services in each of the churches at 6:45 o'clock.
Pharmacy and Pre-medic Courses Led to Full Courses for M.D.'s
How Medical School Came to University
In 1885, by action of the legislature, the School of Pharmacy was created as one of the departments of the University of Kansas. L. E Sayre was chosen to act as the head of the school by the Board of Regents. He came here from a Philadelphia medical school, and was very much interested in the establishing of such a department in this university.
When Professor Sayre arrived on Mount Oread, he found that chemistry and other subjects relating to a pre-medic course were already being given, and there was a small exhibit of medicinal chemicals and crude drugs. Professor Bailey and his predecessor Professor Patrick had already tried to start a premedical course, or at least to keep alive the nucleus of succession. Professor Sayre in physiological chemistry and material medica, and a 2-year course was offered to pre-medics, for which they received one year's credit in the medical schools in the East.
Little by little the work progressed and expanded into a fuller medical course, until at last on the advice of the medical profession and institutions of the state, a full 4-years' course was established, and the School of Medicine of the University of Kansas was announced.
Thoughout the entire growth of such a department, Governor Robinson was intensely interested in the school, and expressed his desire to the school. Unfortunately Doctor leave part of his estate to Robinson died several years before the real school was established, and left no definite provision in his will for the school. His intimate friends felt assured that when the appropriation of his bequest should be made it would go in the direction of what seemed to be his expressed wish during his life, and the Medical School will probably soon receive some benefit from the estate to erect a suitable medical building.
On the way to Paris, the President's special train stopped at the little town of Plouaret for dinner. The 5:30 out of Brest opened the President's special at that point, and for the rest of the journey took all the applause meant for the presidential party.
A Y. M. C. A. man of the name of Little, who used to be a newspaper man before he broke out the Red Triangle, looks not a little like the President. As luck would have it, he sat next the window of one of the compartments, with his H hat off. And for miles and miles he was hailed with "Vives" and "O'orays!" until, overcome, he sought refuge in the aisle—Stars and Stripes.
Returning Yanks Bit By "Chevronitis" Germs
"Chevronitis' 'is the new disease as a result of the war. It is a malady peculiar to doughboys, and is not unlike smallpox in that it causes the victim to break out in violent eruptions.
Bad attacks are shown by the number of chevrons and the directions in which they point. The most ungravated cases have chevrons everywhere, on the right shoulder and in the middle of the left elbow, and some stripes can even be found on the knee and right hip.
To clear up any misunderstanding on the part of the doughbys who wear the doughbys weaver immediately got them it is suggested that these meanings be used for various decorations:
A chevroon on the right shoulder signifies that the wearer has not any cooties, but has survived an awful battle with them in France.
A chevron on the left shoulder signifies that whenever a pretty American Red Cross nurse arrived in France doughboy wearer immediately got in the way of a German machine gun bullet.
Between the shoulder and the elbow on the right arm a chevron signifies that the wearer has an uncle in the army. On the left elbow it signifies that the wearer has a girl in France. Worn on the breast between the third and fifth rib, it indicates that the girl he left behind him didn't spend any time waiting for him to come back.
He who possesses a Thrift stamp is entitled to wear a chevron on the right hip. If he bought a Liberty Bond it is an inch higher.
A chevron on the right leg, close to the knee, signifies that the wearer didn't like baked-beans and was brave enough to tell the cook about the stripe is worn an inch lower it indicates that he emerged victorious.
A chevron on the left hip means that the man wearing it has been mentioned by the inspector-general. All doughbys know what an honor that is, because the inspector-general speaks only once, but fluently, and plainly and everyone else knows just what he is talking about.
LePort Spangler Returns
From Overseas Service
LePort Spangler, B.S.17, is visiting friends on the Hill today. He reached Newport News, January 6, and came here from his home in Lecompton. Mr. Spangler was wounded by machine gun fire during the battle of the Argonne and spent four months in a hospital.
Mr. Spangler was called into service in August, 1917 and spent eight months across seas with the 35th division. After the signing of the armistice, those in hospitals were invalided home. Mr. Spangler was sent first to Fort Riley and then to Camp Funston, where he was discharged.
Mr. Spangler was with Company M on the Mexican border during the summer and fall of 1916. When he received his call to service he was employed by the Western Electric Company.

Course in 'Applied'Gym
A woman working in the deartment of home economies in the basement of Fraser Hall walked 21-2 miles in cooking, serving and washing the dishes for one meal!
Starling as this report seems to outsiders, women in the department take it casually.
"I knew it," said one woman student. "I've cooked in that lace." Instructors in the deartment nodded wearily when they read the students' report of expenditure in money and footwork. "Most universities," said one instructor, "have a special building for home economics and try to make the course attractive to the women students, for in all probability, this will be their life profession, and it is no small profession.
"We have arranged the laboratories as well as possible considering the facilities we have to work with. But it is more than discouraging to the students to work in the basement of the oldest building on the Hill, where they have to walk 2-1.2 miles in preparing a simple meal, one costing only 14.8 cents for each person served. We need new quarters, where laboratories, lecture rooms and store rooms can be so arranged that a minimum of hard physical effort would be extended in the practice work of the course. Why not encourage women to study home economics?"
Wattles Publishes Poems
Written at Funston
Willard Wattles, instructor in rhetoric in the School of Engineering, has published a booklet of poems, which were written while he served as a private in the United States Army. This work is entitled *Motivation Tracks* and is dedicated to Major-General Leonard A. Wood.
The proceeds of the sale of this booklet will be devoted to the establishment of a Kansas Poetry Prize, competition for which will be open to all native Kansans.

Contributions to the Jewish-Armenian relief fund may be left with Registrar George O. Foster, at the University, according to arrangements made today by H. S. Martin, chairman of the Douglas County relief committee.
"Many University eleople have telephoned me, asking how their contribution should be sent in," said Mr. Martin, "and hence we have arranged with Mr. Foster to handle this for us, and we have authorized him to issue receipts in the name of the county committee."
The drive has been on in Douglas County for more than two weeks, and between $600 and $7000 has been raised toward the county's quota of $10,000.

The STANDARD ELECTRIC STOVE is especially nice for people who have irregular meal hours. The dinner is ut into the cooker, and the heat is brought up to the maximum temperature, then turned down to the low temperature which is equal to a 40 watt lamp, and left to cook. Bread, biscuits, turleys, cakes, anything you like can be repaired in this cooker.
Is the only word to use. Now isn't it just like magic to be able to go to Club or down town and come home as late as you please and find the dinner all beautifully cooked and waiting to be served. It certainly is a most delightful feeling as it leaves one free from lots of household worries.
The stove is especially fine because no special wiring is required, and it can be attached to any ordinary lamp socket. Call and see this wonderful stove at the

Princeton is now only 309 behind its pre-war average of 1435. The greatest gain this year is in the freshman clas, the registration of which rises from 335 last year to 450 this year, making it the largest freshman class Princeton has ever had, while the senior class shows an increase of about 90 per cent. This class last year lost 256 of its members, only eighty-one remaining, most of whom entered some branch of the service. At the present time 1919 has 158 members, the junior class has enrolled 199 as against 155 last year and 287 the year before, while 1921 shows the smallest increase of any class with an enrolment of 272, only 34 more than last year.

Entomology 'Grinds'
Chase Outdoor Bugs
How the English and language majors, the economics students, and the overworked laws envy the entomology "grinds" on days like this! It is hard to sit in stuffy buildings, with the monotonous murmur of voices reaching faintly through the haze, while out on the campus, entomology students are running about, and enjoying themselves, chasing bugs that are stuck in tanglefoot. For to pick up a few beetles from the 12,000 different species of beetles in this beetling country, seems less than plea.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 6, 1919.
the onlookers, poor suffering studies, are not far from right, either; for these students are enjoying them. The problem is that they often make important discoveries.
Few people know that the sticky substance put around trees is to protect the foliage from the numerous canker worms hatch, they have no 'this time of year'. When the female canker worms hatch, they have no wings and in the necessary process of drawing and the formation where they emerge form the pupae, they are caught in the "tanglefoot" and soon die.
Each year the entomology professors make a count of the canker worms which are caught in these insects, and for this season has already begun.

as Noted as French Scholar and Soldier—Wounded at Heights of Meuse
Andre Fribourg To Talk To University Students On Youth and The War
Andre Fribourg, French soldier; scholar, and literary artist, will lecture in the gymnasium Friday, February 21 on "The Intellectual French Youth and the War." Monsieur Fribourg is coming here through the Federation of the French Alliance to the United States and Canada, to which the University of Kansas has belonged for several years.
M. Fribruegger worked his way up through almost unsurmountable material difficulties to the seat of professor of history and geography in the venerable College Sainte-Barbe. He was especially interested in the French and American during the Revolution and published learned reviews on this subject.
In August 1914, he joined the 106th French Infantry, and, after fighting in the Battle of the Marne and on the Heights of the Meuse, he was wounded. He later returned to active service and was wounded again, this time during World War I, and retaining just enough sight to distinguish day from night.
His novel "Croire-Histoire d'un Soldat" contains his own experiences in the war. It gives a graphic insight into the experiences of the common soldier during the first terrible months of the war.
Monsieur Friburg is one of the finest speakers the department of French has ever brought to the University. Those who heard the speakers who have come here in previous years anticipate with pleasure the lecture of this professor.
Lieut. H. Fleeson Writes of Treatment in Germany
Has Been in France a Year With 12th Aero Squadron in Active Service
The American soldiers with the army of occupation in Germany are tired of military life, now that the war is over, and are ready to return to the good old U.S.A., according to a letter from Lieut. Howard Fiessen, a former K.U. student who is with the 12th Aero Squadron. Lieutenant Flélesson said the troops in the conquered territory are well treated by most of the Germans, although oftentimes the children resent the coming of the Allies and throw rocks and mud at them as they are passing.
He told of walking through the streets of a village near the Rhine with an American captain, when a younger picked up a handful of mud and threw it in the captain's face. He also mentioned the fact that German soldiers or policemen were reluctant about saluting the officers of the advancing army, but that the Americans generally forced the Huns to salute, whether they wanted to or not.
Lieutenant Fleeson has been in France about a year, and has served as an aerial observer at the front most of that time. He has twice been decorated for bravery in action, the first time receiving the Distinguished Service Cross and the second time a Bronze Star. He has been cited three times in despatches. Lieutenant Fleeson was in school in 1916-17 and "was junior prom manager in the latter year. He is a member of Pi Uapilon.

Student Baseball Also to Be Encouraged by Returning Secretary
"Dutch" Wedell Back From Army Hospital To Resume Work in V
Corp. Hugo "Dutch" Wedel, secretary of the University Y, M. C. A. returned to Lawrence today, having received his discharge from the medical corps last Thursday. Since the armistice was signed, his unit has been stationed at Debarkation Hospital No 51, at Hampton Rivers, Va., where wounded men were received from transports and taken care of by the hospital's medical staff of the voyage. Men from all organizations and branches of service wounded in almost every way were given attention at this hospital.
"It was great and interesting work,
but terrible nerve nunchuck," said
"The spirit of the men was won-
werful. Most of the men said they
were glad to be alive. I didn't meet
any men from the University, but
quite a number of Kansas men who
were with the Rainbow Division.
"I have come home to stay and am going to resume my work with the Y. M. C. A. and take change of freshman baseball. Baseball is in bad shape because of the poor spirit and attitude taken by the schools."
Foreign Missionaries Will Address Students
Informal Meeting Will be Held In Myers Hall Friday
The Student Volunteers will have three speakers, well known in the missionary world, at their meetings at Myers Hall Friday. The Rev. D. O. Cunningham of Harda, India, and the Rev. Herbert Smith of Bolenga, Africa, will tell of their work as missionaries in these countries. Miss Daisy June Troun of Indianapolis, a member of the National Christian Woman's Board of Missions will be present.
All students interested in the missions will meet with these persons at Doctor Braden's home in Myers Hall at 6 o'clock Friday night. This meeting will be informal and will last an hour. They will then adjourn to the Methodist Church to meet with the Christian Endeavor Union which is having a dinner that evening. The formal speeches will be given there.
Mr. Cunningham has a flourishing church of 700 members in Harda, India. He was graduated in a class from Harvard, Irmada, from Hiram College, Colgate, Ohio.
Mr. Smith is head of a large church in Bolenga, Africa, on the Kongo River. This church has a membership of one thousand. It has the largest Christian Endeavor society in the world, having a membership of 1,200 and sends out 100 foreign missionaries.
The purpose of the meetings at which these three persons will speak, is to interest and enlist K. U. studious in foreign missionary enterprises.
The Woman's Board of Missions of the Christian Church, of which Miss Trout is a leader is the organization which built Myers Hall.

Civil Engineers to Meet
Civil Engineers 18 Meet
The civil engineers will hold a mixer in the lecture room in Marvin Hall on Thursday, February 6, at 7:30 p.m. The meeting will be feautred by boxing matches, speeches and "eats." All men interested in Civil-engineering have been invited.
Dignity has discarded its stately robes for now KU's staid and sober faculty is thinking Jazzweller. At least Freed Ricky, manager of third annual Journalism Jazz to be given March 7 in Robinson Gymnastium, says that a dean of one of the departments called him aside Tuesday night and confidently requested the activation of the word "Jazz."
Now for the meaning of Jazz: when Haley stretches out at the piano, hibbers his stubby fingers, nods to Baviny at the violin and likewise gives the signal to the trumpets and saxophone artist, it's pretty sure sign that "Jazzy" music is about to pervaded the ballroom circle.
So the Journalism "Jazz" accordingly explains itself. Four Jazzy music makers directed by Haley will be the feature of the evening, but this does not mean that clever programs and original stunts will be lacking. The management is pointless, but the musicians its parties in the past, and is finally resolved that the Journalism Jazz will be still better this year.
Tickets for the party will be on sale tomorrow morning by Lewis Duff in the School of Law, Harold Hall and Luthor Hanger in the journal Building in the School of Engineering and Fred Eigly in the College.
Plain Tales From the Hill
THIS IS THE TRUTH
Notice: The Woman's. Student Council wishes to thank the man of the University for their active support in helping them see that the date rule is observed. 'Pants' Murphy especially is a great help to them. He reported a mid-week date last week. 'Pants' is a great help to the student council because he is out every night himself and gets to see all the rest of them.
One medic certainly pulled a bone the other day. The instructor left his class-book on the desk when he went out of the room, so the said medic thought he would see how he stood in the course. The only thing he saw was a cross against his name, which he decided was to show his incomplete work so he erased it—oh, so really.
The next day to his dismay he learned that the cross was merely to show that he had paid his laboratory fee.
This cold weather, when the thermometer drops with a thud, some of the men who have just put on 'cits' yearn for their good old puttees. Our astronomy professor, however, isn't bothered by cool ankles. He wears his puts' under his trousers and no one knows the difference. How do we know? Oh, the wind blew hard yesterday.
REPORTS FROM STAR-GAZERS
The recreational dances after the basketball games are the star's delight. A few of the men from the suburban fraternity even had the serve to stag at the Chi Omega dance Friday night.
HURRAH! FOR UNCLE JIMMY
The dance managers say that there will be no graft in the big parties this year. 'There won't be much of anything at $1.50 per couple. You ought to hear what Uncle Jimmy has to say about it.
"While they are making all these rules why don't they regulate the price of women's hats to $1.50 and men's suits to $12.50? I think, too, it would be a good thing if all men were compelled to be in bed at 9:30 every evening. And above everything men shouldn't be allowed to smoke anything but two for fives. There are several things left that haven't yet been regulated by the Senate.
Did you know there existed such a thing in K. U, as a frush who would make a formal application for memorial to a Greek letter society? One did it himself, and pledged last week but not to the one he petitioned for membership.
IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED
Freshman: What is the matter with Nadine Blair? She hardly speaks to me any more.
Senior: Oh, don't mind her. The manager of the show Monday night told her she looked like Margaret and she was the expecter to be the same after that.

Freshmen Women Lose To Sophs and Juniors Defeat Senior Quintet
Score in Upperclass Game Was 19-14 While Yearlings Went Under 16-7
Allen Star for Class 1920
Second Round of Woman's Interclass Tournament Will Be Friday Night
The juniors defeated the seniors 19 to 14 and the sophomores won from the freshmen 16 to 7, in first round of the women's interclass basketball tournament in Robinson Gymnasium Wednesday night.
The junior-senior game was a fast one from start to finish. The short, low passes of the seniors proved an effective check on the ability of the juniors to find the basket. The team work between the senior forwards, Parkinson and Dodderidge, and the centers, Babcock and Castle, formed a tight line. Ruth Bottomly, as guard on the junior-town play, an unusually good game and Earline Starled at forward, shooting seven goals. The game was exceptionally clean and no personal fouls were called.
The sophomores with superior team work outplayed the freshmen. The freshman forwards who are new at the game this year were unable to hit the basket, but the centers, Harkrader and Cretcher, played an unusually good game for first-year players. Light as freshman guard, played a good defensive game. Wasson Barnett, sophomore forward, a combine player, shoved up on defense, are up to their old standard. Shakele, sophomore guard, a new member on the team this year, made a good showing.
The second round of the tournament will be played Friday night at 7 o'clock in the gym, when the sophomores meet the seniors and the freshmen play the juniors.

Y.W. To Send Delegates To National Conference
Either Moore, c19, and Lillian Cottrell, c18, will be the delegates from K.U. to the National Faculty and Student Conference of the Y. W. C. A. at the Northshore Hotel, Evanston, Illinois, February 20 to 24. The purpose of this convention is to bring before the representatives of the universities a new challenge for co-operation in reconstruction work.
Miss Katherine Duffield, University Y. W. C. A. secretary, will attend the conference. Miss Duffield has been in New York the last three weeks working with other secretaries on the plan for this conference.
The School of engineering will not hold any regular enrollment day in March, as the quarter system is not being used in that school. "The engineers will, however, get the same lengthed vacation as the other schools," said Dean G. C. Shaad.

THURSDAY, FEB. 6, 1919
RESCINDING OLD ACTION
The protest of University juniors and seniors against a war measure which, they declared, had outlived its usefulness now seems to have been abundantly justified.
The department of physical education has agreed that a return to the pre-war requirements for gymnastium work by upperclassmen should take effect immediately, and by the new ruling of the University Senate only freshmen and sophomores, according to the requirements of the different schools, will need to enroll for work in physical education.
Now that the Senate has come to the conclusion that the protests of the upperclassmen were well founded, it is only to be regretted more that the 'conclusion could not have been reached before the beginning of the present quarter. After much fuss and delay the subject of the controversy between the faculty and students is ex-
actly at the point from which it started. But in the meantime great inconvenience, and in some cases hardships, have resulted from the rescinded ruling.
Students who were forced to carry extra work felt that the requirements were too heavy. A great many managed to dodge the exercise periods and those who did not do so felt that the system was unjust. In some cases suspension from the University was the result of failure to comply with a ruling that is now recognized as unsuccessful.
The attitude finally taken by the Senate, however, is one that is laudable and no doubt student opinion will command it.
With the recent change in weather the campus pensimist is now predicting the appearance of white cotton gloves on the Hill.
CLOSING HOUR OF DANCES
The dance situation has been relieved somewhat by the Senate action allowing one formal dance of each established student organization to last until one o'clock in the morning.
While it would be decidedly unwise to let any and every dance continue until one o'clock, the extension of time for a few seems commendable. The more important parties of the University, the established, annual affairs that have become almost traditional, should be more than an ordinary party. The new ruling will make them bigger dances and give them more of the prestige that is proper theirs.
Action as regards the admission
price of dances was postponed by the usual custom of referring the question to a committee. This committee is made up of the Student Interests Committee and the Auditing Committee of the University Senate.
The price has been fixed at $1.50 a couple. This price has been attacked by some students as being too low for the bigger parties.
If all dances of the University are to be put on the same level as to price and hours, the traditionally "big" dances will be lost and become members of the more commonplace class. Students should have one party they can look on more proudly than others, as an affair that really is a social "event."
For the students who care to attend such a party, one dance should be arranged for a higher price than the usual舞. Enough students would support it to make it practical, and its social importance is so great that it should be kept up.
HILLTOP PHILOSOPHY
Blessed is the student who can repeat the ten commandments after flunking a history quiz.
The best argument against fraternities seems to be that a certain clothing company has named its product Frat Clothes.
A news report says that the 322 Division is wintering on the Rhine. And even in these times of food conservation we didn't believe so many men could do it.
It matters not what your ancestors were—it's what you are that counts. If we tried getting by because of our ancestors most of us would be in the zoo.
With a name like theirs no wonder the Bolshevik got in bad right off the bat.
On account of current high prices,
"bringing home the bacon" is at
present obsolete even with the sport

The substitution of chops and steaks by wieners at many restaurants seems to indicate that things are going from bad to wurst.

nolls illustration about volka.
I drank a bottle.
When I was a child I opened a bottle of horse liniment once, and thought I'd taste it.
The Bolshevist government has just proclaimed the country "wet" again. But I can't for the life of me see why anybody should ever want to drink
The memory of that mistake is with me still and vodka is worse than horse liniment!
The Russians drink it in little glasses; about two thimblefuls at a time. They never stop to taste it, or the stuff couldn't go any farther.
Vodka is made from wheat or rye,
and is 50 per cent pure alcohol.
It is almost awe-inspiring to watch some of the Russian officers drink it by the half tumblerful and yet retain their senses and dignity.
It is almost against the law to sell vodka or cognac, so the cafe mangers get around the law by putting the liquor in bottles labeled "lemonade."
The program at the Acquarium, the largest cafe, is so arranged that the woman singers begin their weeny ballads along about the time the vodka takes effect. I noticed a big man alone at a table piled high with food
In the midst of one heartrendering song, his eyes began to blink, and as sure as I'm alive tears as big as rains began to fall into his soup.
This surprised me so that I looks around and found a little wizened old fellow, with his arm around another dereilest, crying for all that was in him, and, before I had time to realize, the whole place was blubbering
Canadians have dubbed the place the "Fish Pond."—Peggy Hall in the Cleveland Press.

What has become of the old time K. U. pen, and where are the Kansas cheerleaders? In the three year there has been no cheering and the crowd has clearly died out. The team fights but the crows instead of cheering.

Saturation night a fan on the north side of the court bawled a player out for a bad shot. That is not the K, U. spirit. This same fan did no cheering. Kansas should have a cheerler in the center cheerleaders in name only. The crowd would support the team if given the proper leadership.

Kansas is farther behind the schools of the Valley than our team in playing. Kansas has a losing team this year but the cheering of the crowd is an absolute fake. The team does their best but the crowd does not even make a try.

THE SERGEANT AND Tiny Tim Ever since the sergeant was five years old he had observed Christmas Day by reading Dickens' "The Christmas Carol." It began when he used to hear his father read aloud under the evening lamp and continued when he could lie in front of the fire and spell the words out for himself. He might forget this tribal custom till Christmas came, but there was the book always at hand on the shelf. This until Christmas approached in 1917, and he found himself in Brittany with December waning fast and not a sign of a copy in the outfit nor a trace of a translation in the little village. Then, by a freak of circum-

It was had enough to start out like this: "Maryland war to, damit wilt er wir anfragen." It wore to the tear so it "D alte amt zu sein, dass sie too wie ei ein Turt gel". The last straw was to hear tiny Tim give this heathenn benediction: "Gott segne jeden von uns."
But it had to be gone through with. As for the rest of Herr Dickeng, it can wait till we get home. The sergeant has no mind to peruse Die Pie-blewicker'i" for instance. "I want to think of what is made to say 'Ganz recht' instead of "Wory well, sir!"—Stars and Stripes.

Miss Dorothea Spinney to Present "Iphigenia" in Fraser Tonight

Dramatic Interpretater Talks Of Greek Plays And Of Kansas Plains
Is the place to get the best in printing and engraving
"Oh I think it is one of the best countries there is and it would take me forever to sit here and give my good impressions of America," Miss Dorothea Spinney said today. "Everyone has a keen interest and desire to know things worth while and why they are worth while. There is no hopelessness here as in the European countries. You folks are always trying something new and if it's not one thing it's another."
This is Miss Spinney's third visit to America but her first visit to this part of the United States. She said she expected to find flat plains without trees but was agreeably surprised to find it such a pretty country.
"It is very natural that I should be giving Greek plays," she said. "As at the age of 14 years I learned Richard IV from beginning to end. I would wake my sisters up in the middle of the night and stand them against the wall so that they could hear me recite."
"The greatest trouble in presenting these plays is to get your audience o understand that Greek plays are
just as easy to understand as the modern plays. I hardly ever give a Greek play that some one doesn't come to me afterwards and say that they are just like the modern plays.
"There is no difference between University audiences and others. The Greek plays are appreciated by all classes of people and in all countries. This is shown by the following few lines that Mrs. Robert Browning said about Euripides:
"Ah Euripides, the human,
All Euripides, the author,
With his dropings of warm tears,
And his touches of things common
Till they rose to touch the spheres."
Miss Spinney expects to sail for
England in April.

Eight Basketteers Go To Manhatten to Play Speedy Aggie Quintet
Coach Hamilton Probably Will Use Entire Squad at Meet
Two Games Are Scheduled
Coach W. O, Hamilton and eigh members of the Jayhawker basket ball team left this morning for Manhattan, where they will play the Aggies tonight and Friday. The Crimies and Blue squad was confident of giving the Aggies a hard fight in both games. The men have been suffering from a slump since the Ames series but are determined to play good basketball tonight. The men on the trip are: Captain Matthews, Bunn, Lonborg, Miller, Mason, Bennett, Harms and Frederick.
The lineup that will start the game tonight was not announced by the coach, and it is probable that Bunn and either Lonborg or Miller will start at the forward positions, Matthews at center and Mason and Bennett at the guards. Lonborg may be shifted to guard at any time, as he showed form that position against Missouri that was promising. The in favor of every member of the squad getting into the game before the team returns home.

Johnny Clark, captain and guard of the Aaggies, is undoubtedly one of the best guards in the valley, both on the defensive and offensive. Clarke is an excellent dribber and accores equally well from the field and the free-throw line. Hinds, the other veteran of the Aaggies, is a steady forward and a scraper of the "Scrubby" Laslett type. He is generally a good goal shooter.
The other members of the Manhattan outfit, although new to Missouri Valley basketball, have been showing class in the preliminary games. Jennings, the center, is a fairly good goal shooter and plays the floor well. Probably the flashiest player on the team is Bunger, Hinds' running mate at forward. Bunger, although said to be an eratic player, is the leading Aggie scoreer and is a dangerous men when near the basket.

THE NEAREST THING to Mother's Cooking
Of course we all have a great longing for Mother's home cooking—its wholesome, fresh flavor. We once ate Mother's cooking ourselves, so we won't argue about the goodness of that kind of food. But incidentally while we are not stepping forth as rival to Mother's art—still we do pride ourselves on the flavor and zestful deliciousness to be found in the food we serve here.
Meals served at Brick's are prepared clean—in a sanitary kitchen—they are cooked with care, seasoned by a "knowing-how" touch. and the result—the nearest thing to mother's cooking.

Musty Greek Drama Carries Modern Punch Miss Spinney Shows
Actress Receives Appreciation of Audience in Portraying Iphigenia
Voice Is Great Attraction
Play Loses None in Effect In Presentation By One Person
NUMBER 74
To anyone who saw Dorothea Spinney present *Euripides* Iphigenia, Greek drama will never again be something to read. It will be something to be translated into breathless, dramatic action.
less, bristling.
The whole atmosphere of the bleak Taurian coast, the waves washing the steps of the temple of Artemis, the fifty-oared Greek raily waiting to carry Iphigenia and Orestes safely away from death and the land of bloody sacrifices, the land of Argos for which the captive maidens mourn, remain in the spectator's mind as clearly as any setting made by a scene painter.
The combination of vigor andoleicy displayed in her acting proved her a really great actress. The mourning priestess and the loving sister of Orestes won the intense appreciation of her audience while the interpretation of the Taurian host men and the king, as his son of Orestes Plato lost no effect because being acted by a woman. The touches of humor, which are so seldom appreciated in Greek drama, caught the audience at once.
Miss Spinney's voice is one of her greatest attractions, as well as her grace of movement. She resembles Ruth St. Denis in her quiet, gliding changes from one pose to another and in her interpretation of Greek dancing. She gave the effect of her useless taking from the emblematic characters, which itself is a notable achievement. The personality of the actress and her evident love for the spirit of the Greeks were evident in her work.

The 1918 Jayhawker football team will elect a captain to lead the eleven next fall at the annual banquet to be held at a local cafe Tuesday night. Football- letters will be officially awarded at that time.
The two possibilities for the captainy seem to be Johnny Bunn, the halfback who scored the much needed touchdown at the Aggie game last fall, a junior in the School of Engineering, and Stem Foster, All-Star defensive player. He will be eligible because of the ruling in the Valley that S. A. T. C. football did not count as one of the three years allowed.

Johnny Oles says there is notime like a Kappa upper-classman when it comes to sticking around the library when she ought to be at home and in bed. Johnny would much rather leave the library about nine o'clock but he can't unless all the older sisters have gone too.
JOHNNY PLAYS DETECTIVE
So about nine, he goes on his nightly tour of the library. First he takes in the main room, sitting in one corner presumably buried in Life. Then he goes upstairs and hunts history notes until he is sure all the detective sisters have gone. There is only one place after that—the Educational Seminar.

Two Slants on the Kansan.
Two Kansan reporters were on Massachusetts Street Monday night. They wanted to look up something in one of the town papers, but in every restaurant they entered, they got the same reply: "We take the University Daily Kansan and nothing else." They felt very proud of their publication to think that it was subscribed to in preference to either the Journal-World or the Gazette until they went to interview Maxine Elliott and her manager informd them that they couldn't see her and if they worked on a newspaper they would know that without asking.
Lieutenant Day Here
Lieut. Harry Day who carried graduate work on the Hill last year was in town last night on his way home from Camp Zachary Taylor, where he was recently commissioned.

Coach Bond Will Call For Indoor Work-0ut For Baseball March 1
Six Games With Ames Scheduled—Will Play Kansas Conference
Wedell to Coach Freshmen
All Last Year's Varsity Men Ready for Practice This Semester
The first call for indoor baseball practice in Robinson Gymnasium will be about March 1, according to Coach Jay Bond, who will have charge of the team again this year. The early call will give the men about three weeks to get themselves in shape for the outdoor workouts which generally begin about the middle of March. Coach Bond said he would have a big squandrum but this time the member of last year's Varsity team in school, and a majority of Dutch Wedell's 1918 freshman nine have returned.
Although only six games have been scheduled, it is expected that several other teams in this part of the country, and especially in the Kansas State Conference, will be represented on the diamond. No word has come from Manhattan as to whether the Aggies will play baseball this year, but Missouri will not have a team. The Emporia Normal and St. Mary's college always play baseball and K.U. almost always schedules two games with each of the schools. The six games on the schedule now are all held at the stadium to be played McCook Field and three on Ames field. Of the men from which Coach Bond will probably select the Varsity there are Bunn, Madden, Desmond and Chestnut; catchers; Marxen, Pierce, Harms, Slawson and Harrison, pitcher; Foster, Lonborg, Lashley, Harmes and Wells, inffielders and Weltmer, Smith, Oyster, Keeler, Vermilion and Convis, outfielders, all from either the Varsity or the freshman team of last year.
Dutch Wedell's return means that the freshman squad this year will again be able to give the Varsity some hard workouts, as Dutch has a habit of developing yearling teams of high class.
Prize Fights Not Aim Of Courses in Boxing Offered in University
W. O. Hamilton, Manager of Athletics, Praises Scientific Sparring as Man Develops
Boxing has been included in the regular work in physical culture at the University of Kansas, but no boxing matches between students of the University and the Kansas City Athletic Club will be allowed, as has been announced in news stories.
"Wood sawing will make muscle, but it won't give ability to handle those muscles. It won't give grace and poise. The army doctors showed up the alarming and woefully poor physical condition of young America. We need more sports to be a better nation at work, play and in everything. Physical directors knew this earlier they showed, but they couldn't say much about it for fear of being cried down as a boo-boosters. Another thing to remember is that athletes at the University of Kansas don't cost the tax payers a single red cent. Our athletics is entirely self-supporting."
"We're trying to build up mentally, physically and morally well-rounded men, not prize fighters," said W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics at the University, in denying the report. "We have put in boxing because boxing trains a man to think and act quickly and to keep his head. It's a necessary part of physical training for a 100 per cent man. It is one of the best things to teach self control and it trains a man to act without panic or anger in stress of emergency.

WHY NOT HAVE THEM?
The University of Kansas is neglecting a possibility for educational and social development by not holding regular convocations?
Class studies are important as educative agencies, but they are not a whole education in themselves. Dances and motion picture shows are not sufficient to insure well-rounded social development. Such activities cannot give new students a notion of the University as a unit.
All-University convocations bring the majority of the students and faculty together, a thing unknown to freshmen this year. Student life is invigorated by the cheering and talks. The speeches are a source of education and instruction as well as regular convocations.
Student opinion is strong in favor of renewing the practice of regular convocations. The University has been willing to have meetings when big speakers come, as in the case of Major-General Wood's visit, but has not seen fit to hold such meetings regularly.
Speakers would not need to be from outside the University of Kansas. We have men and women who have been engaged actively in war work or widely important research and work, and who have interesting things to tell that would be enjoyable and advantageous to students. Whenever convenient an outside speaker could take the place of such persons as convoitation speakers.
The plan formerly used by the University in holding convocations during class hours in the morning is the most practical, as more students and faculty members can attend at that time. The morning class hours could be shortened to leave time for the meeting.
Regular convoctions at, say, ten or ten-thirty o'clock in the morning would be beneficial, both to individual students and to the University as a unified organization. In view of these benefits, why don't we have them?
THE SPORTING FEW
It has accidently been learned that there is a committee of women in each class whose duty it is to promote the interest of the class women in athletics.
To repeat, this knowledge has become prevalent quite by accident and not through any impression made by unusual demonstrations of the University women expressing their enthusiasm in support of the athletic activities which are carried on by a select and small group. It is certainly not through lack of opportunity or evident necessity that these athletic committees have failed in performance of their duties.
There are a few women in the University who are interested in sports and they go out for basketball, swimming, and the other games which the department of physical education is promoting. They practice faithfully and spend their time and energy in preparing for the different contests and when the anticipated time arrives, they play, or they contest, and that is all.
From the viewpoint of the players, the game is no different from the practices as far as the spectators, the support from their fellow classmen, or the enthusiasm shown is concerned. Of course the game is lost or won, and the record goes down but there could be much more than that.
There could be a big crowd on the side lines, divided into groups representing the different classes, each with their own cheerleader and their own yells. There could be class spirit, "pep" and good fellowship. To promote these things should be the active function of the Women's Athletic committees.
An article in a magazine recently was called "How to Make Money" by Owen Moore. "It can't be done," remarks the senior, "for I've tried it for years."
Few people can handle a hot dish and at the same time say there is no place like home.
HIGHBROWISH EYEBROWS
It used to be the style to wear your eyebrows the way nature painted them on your face. Our grandmothers, yes, even our big sisters did. It never even occurred to them that they could do otherwise. But the modern sister found a way, and fashions in eyebrows changed.
The natural arch, wide and graceful, is out of vogue. Graceful, almost invisible, lines arch the eyes now. Thin, timid-looking eyebrows peep out from under the abbreviated bangs which keep them company in the fashion sheet. Strictly speaking, eyebrows have gone out—or come out.
Even among the men some of the highbrows are said to have adopted the new style of eyebrows.
The student who has been to war and back again and is wearing a timepiece on his wrist has taken heart since he saw William Faversham consult such a watch.
"Kaiser's son seek divorce from the Grand Duchess Cacile of Meckenburg" is the latest report in the papers. Must be that Frederick William wants to be through with war for good.
Campus Opinion
The plan of the teachers in the Home Economics department is that they have a special building for their work. This request is just and ad-hoc, and it doesn't take in trying to make the course here of practical value should be rewarded.
This Column is Open to all Students of the University
To The Daily Kansan:
Not only should the University of Kansas have a separate building for such a course but it should be one that the women could call their own. Surely, such a building would be a home to the women students of the University.
Dean Blackmar, continually advises that the women enter courses that will be of practical value to them after leaving college. I notice that the women enter courses in home architecture; home decoration; and domestic science.
If women students are to be encouraged to enter these departments why could not the courses be placed among the groups required for a degree? A great impetus would be given to that department if the subjects were so arranged. E. D.
into one type or groups of types.
It has been said that fraternities are destroying the individuality of college students and forming them
FRATERNITY TYPES
To the Daily Kansan:
With this I am inclined to agree when we see the peculiarities adopted by fraternities, men's or women's, and followed by all members of the chapter. I have no grudge against such organizations and see many advantages in them, but the destruction of individuality that comes from imitating fellow members and doing exactly as they do is a serious defect.
It is puerile and objectives to practice such mimicry. Reduction to set type is directly opposed to the production of self-liinking and anatomy, 1920.

The Commanding General takes great pleasure in publishing the names and deeds performed by the following namel persons, as being well worthy of emulation and praise:
Terry, Willie C. Waltz.
W. Willis G. Whiten*At Clair Chenes Woods on October 20, 1918 Captain Willis G. Whiten acted with extreme coolness and bravery in the handling of his detachment in the 7-day action in which the Claire Chenes Woods were captured and held. The success of the engagement was due to his resourcefulness and constant watchfulness and intelligent command of his men.
By command of Maj. General Howso Robert McLeave, Colonel General Staff Chief of Staff
Captain Whitten graduated with honors from the School of Engineering in 1916 and for a short time after his graduation taught classes in architectural engineering. He is a member of Sigma Xi. He designed the bulletin board for the campus. At present he is with the army of occupation in Luxemburg, with Co. E 6 U.S. Engineers.
Haworth Hall Was Named for Geology Professor
Grected at Cost of $50,000 Left From Appropriation for Marvin Hall
Haworth Hall which is named in honor of Erasmus Haworth, professor of geology, was erected by the state in 1909 at a cost of $55,000.
The State Legislature in 1907 appropriated $200,000 for the following two years to be used for the building of an engineering and a geology building. Work on Marvin Hall, the engineering building, started in July of 1907, and was completed in the summer of 1908. Using the remaining part of the appropriation, work was started on Haworth Hall in July and it was sufficiently completed that classes were held in the building the following year. Later in 1909 the dedication program was held in Fraser Hall when Haworth Hall was given its name.
Haworth Hall houses the geology mining and the state geological departments. The geological department all added a laboratory costing $7,500.
The building was built of all native stone, except the trimmings which were obtained from Silver Dale. The windows and the wood work are made of dark oak.

Three Members Elected To Dramatic Art Club
Popular Plays Will Be Given Once a Month Beginning In March
The first regular meeting of the Dramatic Art Club met in the Little Theater, Wednesday evening. The club is late in starting its regular activities this year, due to the disorder of the University on account of the military program.
The next meeting of the club will be February 19.
"The Emancipated Ones" was given by contestants for the Dramatic Club. Miss Margarite Reischin, Miss Lois Lingenfelter, and Miss Lois Purkiss were on the list. Owens and Miss Virginia Melvin were on the put waited list.
Miss Maron Sawyer, Miss Rose Segelbaum, and Joe Swarts were appointed as a committee to investigate plays that would be suitable to give in the Popular Play Series.
The motion was carried to have a regular meeting of the club the third Wednesday evening of every month, when try-outs for the club will probably be put on and the contestants voted on. It was decided to continue with the Popular Play Series, members of the club putting one on each month. The first one will probably be the first of March.

Lieurance Will Present Famous Indian Melodies In Fraser Hall Monday
Preyer
Noted Composer to Appear With Nah Mee, and Professor Prever
Thurlow Liurance, noted author on Indian music, and composer of many popular Indian songs, will appear in Fraser Hall February 17, with Edna Wooley (Nah Mee), perhaps the best known interpreter of Indian songs, Rex Ertlson Fair, pianist and Prof. Carl Preyer, pianist.
Mr. Lieurance, during the past sixteen years, has lived with thirty-one different Indian tribes, and has transcribed for the Government Department of Enthnology hundreds of Indian melodies. According to Prof. Arthur Nevin, who is himself an authority on Indian music, Mr. Lieurance has done more to preserve the wonderful music of the Indians than any other man. Mr. Lieurance will not only play many of the melodies but he will talk on the relation between the life of the Indians and their music.

music.
The songs will be sung by Eda Woolley (Nah Mee) a young woman of Sioux blood, who speaks the Sioux languages, and speaks in practically all the various Indian languages. Instead of singing the songs in concert style, she will sing them as they are sung by the Indians, and with the action or dramatization which nearly accompanies their singing. She will wear the Indian costume of the tribes whose songs she sings.
Mr. Rex Fair will not only play on the Indian flute, which is the principal Indian instrument, but he will also play a fantasy by Lieurance based on a Cheyenne melody.
Professor Preyner will play Orcen's Indian Rhapsody, based on ten Indian melodies furnished by Mr. Lieu-
rance.
There will be two other concerts on the University Concert Course during the next two months. March 4, the Zoellner String Quartet will return for its ninth recital at the University. April 8, Harold Henry, American pianist, will give the fifth concert.

Students and Faculty Discuss Graft Question At Meeting Saturday
Ideas Prevalent That Student Managers Make Large "Rake-off"
May Have Paid Auditor
The number and price of University dances, graft in student organizations, the practice of giving complimentary tickets to large numbers of students attending big university parties, and compensation for managers of dances such as the Soph Hop and the Junior Prom, were discussed at a meeting of the Student Interests Committee of the Senate and reported. No definite dances Saturday morning were reached, but a second meeting of the committee will be held Tuesday night and recommendations to the Senate may be made.
School of Engineering, W. S. G A. and Dramatic Club as Models
The general opinion seems to be that the general lack of class and organization spirit was owing to the fact the class assumed little responsibility in the giving of a class dance and the idea was prevalent that the manager made a large profit. Students felt that the actual money value of their admission price may put into the admission process nobody but the managers got anything from the party, and hence were not willing to do any of the work necessary.
The spirit shown by the School of Engineering, which manages all of its student enterprises on a non-profit bawt was pointed out as an argument that was pointed out as a nar gument that student dances could be run successfully without any "rake-off" for the managers.
According to Prof. D. L. Patterson, chairman of the committee, the success of the work done by the Women's Student Government Association and the School of Engineering is the result of the elimination of personal gain for the students concerned in the work. The fact that successful All-University parties have been managed by students without any profit for themselves and that the Dramatic Club plays are managed in the same way were brought up by the committee.
Plans for having the Junior Prom and the Sophomore Hop made distinctly class parties were taken up with the managers.
Situations in which graft was the leading issue were brought up and instances in which the present auditing system has been disregarded were cited by students. The plan for having a paid auditor for student accounts, was discussed favorably. The auditor would have nothing to do but audit accounts, Registrar Foster said. The plan for having him take some part in the active managing of student afairs was not accepted favorably.
Students at the meeting were: Herschel Washington, Men's Student Council; Lymn Hershey, the Jayhawk; Herman Hangen, senior class president; George Mevin and the Strong, managers of the Law Serim; Charles Schofstall, manager of the Junior Prom; Feed Rigly, manager of the Journalism Jazz George Doeo, School of Engineering Jumie Scott, School of Medicine; Lucine Sueen, Mary Smith and Irene Tiken, officers of the Woman's Student Government Association; Harold Hoover, junior Association; Harold Hoover, junior Association;
Members of the Student Interests Committee are; Miss Alberta Corbin, chairman; Dr. Alice Goetz, Miss Elizabeth Sprague, Miss Nadine Nowil, Miss Amida Stanton, Prof. Louis Sisson, Prof. David L. Patterson, Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith, Prof. Herbert Hungerford, and Prof. Joseph Brandt. Other Members of the Faculty resent were Prof. Arthur J. Boynton and Registrar George O. Foster.
A letter similar to the regulation "T" has been offered to all women of the University of Texas co-operating with flu regulations which are on for four weeks. The "T" is worn on the sleeve in order to distinguish it from the regulation letter. The requirements include absence from all movies, dances, and soda fountains, and eight hours sleep.

Peace Negotiations Are but a bolt in the storm, says George Clemencan, French premier, in an interview with the Associated Press. Danger still exists that Germany might draw aid from chaotic Russia although Germany has been defeated and partly disarmed, he said. The French indicate a growing impatience over the disposition of the Germans to dodge armistice conditions. At Weimar the delegates to the first German National Assembly are holding a big talk; forging that they host the war. Another conference is to discuss terms of continuing the armistice. The Hun assembly has passed the first reading of a provisional constitution. The assembly is discussing movig from Weimar to Berlin.

Engineering Professor Writes On Conserving City Water Supplies
Collaborating with F. M. Veatch Recommends Schemes for Preventing Droughts
Prof. F. N. Raymond, of the School of Engineering, has an article in the January 16 issue of the Engineering News-Record, "Conserving City Water-Supplies in Southeastern Kansas," written in collaboration with F. M. Veatch, engineer of the State Board of Health.
"The severe drought in southeastern Kansas during the last two seasons has caused the work of out a fairly definite plan for conserving the water supplies of the towns in the district," the article states.
"From January, 1917, to August, 1918, the rainfall was a little more than 60 per cent of what is normally to be expected in those months. By June, 1918, many of the streams quit running, and the approach of the annual dry season caused much anxiety. In July service had to be adapted to the conditions, in order to prevent actual suffering. Railway supplies at city plants had to be cut off, and the shipping of cattle out of the country began."
Various means tried for combatting the drought are described. At Cherryvale, Independence, and Coffeeville, for example, ditches were cut from pool to pool in the river bed, and the water all drained down to the reservoir at the city plant. But these ditches destroyed the storage value of the pools for the future. The use of pumps or siphons to convey water from pool to pool, was found to be too expensive.
"The logical development of the plan has been, therefore, to build dams at the points where the rock outcroppings forming the pools occur. Usually a series of small dams is better than one large dam, for the small dams cause less trouble in case of flood.
"The following cities have built or are building dams on this plan: Fort Scott, Neodesha, Eureka, Cherryvale, Independence, Coffeeville, Lyndon, Ottawa, Garnett, and Cedarvalle. The Verdigris will be almost a continuous series of these storage reservoirs for many miles."
Mrs Bumpstead-Leigh Will Be Given March 3 At Bowersock Theater
Rehearsals Are Being Held Twice a Week By The Dramatic Club
The Dramatic Club play, Mrs.
Bumpstend-Leigh, will be given at
the Bowersock Theater, March 3,
according to announcement today.
the cast of characters chosen at the beginning of the second quarter has been holding rehearsals twice a week. According to Prof. Arbur MacMurray, who is coaching the play, he says that the company and the play promises to be the most finished production ever given by the Dramatic Club.
"Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh," is a comedy in three acts. It is written by the author of "The Little School Teacher," and "The Tailor Made Man," successes of the last two seasons. "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh," was presented in the Lyceum Theater in New York, featuring Mrs. Harrison Grey Fiske. Florence Butler takes this nart in the play here.
Following the custom of former years, the Dramatic Club will give this play as the big dramatic production of the year. Last year the Checkmate' was given. The team had been the entire student body. Seventy-five persons tried for the twelve places in the cast this year.
The setting for the play is American, but both Englishmen and American characters are used. Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh, the leading lady, takes role of an Indiana country girl and a member of the English royalty. Although the play is a comedy, its dramatic qualities are immense.

Bad Immigration Laws Cause of I.W.W. in U.S. Says Dean Blackman
"If the United States had reasonable and wise immigration laws, we would not now be bothered with the Bolshevik i.v. L. W. W," said Dr. Frank W. Blackmar, dean of the graduate school of the University in an address at Westminster Congregational Church, Kansas City, Mo., Sunday.
Failure To Educate and Eagerness To Exploit Make Poor Citizens
Dean Blackman said the war proved that this country had failed in its immigration policy because of trouble surrounding the immigrant community, as well as those who did not.
"The treatment of immigrants," said Dean Blackmar, "has been defective, as shown in the failure to make good citizens. We have invited them to come to this country of liberty and wonderful opportunities. We have not given them instruction in citizenship and have found, to our dismay, that they are not at all prepared at the critical time.
"What we need now is a new restitution law, keeping out the sick and defective, and permitting the able bed to come only as rapidly as they can be absorbed into our national life by interfering with labor and social order.
"These who come here to make their permanent homes should be forced to become naturalized as soon as possible under the present laws. They should have compulsory education in the English language and in citizenship. Night schools should be provided for adults, and children should be compelled to attend day schools. Persons who do not wish to subscribe to these conditions should be sent back to the place where they came.
"Of those persons who come to enjoy the blessings of liberty and opportunities of this country, only those wanted are those who are capable of and willing to bear the responsibilities and duties of citizens of a free country."
Dean Blackmar pointed out that it was not alone the fault of the government that immigrants were not properly schooled in the duties of citizenship and that they were harded in cities, instead of being scattered over the country. He said they often were exploited for personal gain by designing men. He suggested a federal bureau of distribution and education as a remedy for the present evils.

Plain Tales From the Hill
If the housemothers had their way,
every girl in the University would
have to sign this pledge before entering
the College:
"Realizing that it is much more wicked to step to the side while dancing than to go forward in the straight and narrow path, I hereby declare that I am guilty of doing the 'shimmy' during any oath at the University."
The house mothers will probably bring this motion up before the Senate but so far the only action that has been taken was the resolution drawn up at the Phi Psi house in their chapter meeting when they mutually agreed to permit any other brother who continued to do the heroic steps.
Do you know why she keeps saying Wait just a minute, please,' when you call up for a date?
If you could bear the variety of remarks, and the advice that is hurried at her free of charge, you would wonder how much talk at all. This is just a sample:
"He's a nut. Be careful."
"Go on and give it to him. You will be missing something if you won't."
"Stay at home with me tonight I'm having a party."
"Really he isn't bad and he always brings you home in a taxi."
"If that is Ray, tell him I want to speak to John when you get through." "Oh, I'd go to that party with any man."
Oh, I go to that party with an man."
"That poor fish. You are the fifth, girl he has called the last hour."
"Why, he is just as nice as he can be and he is lovely to his sister."
After hearing all this, she may likely will tell you that she woul just love to go, but don't think the it is just because you asked her.
Advice to Giddy Professors
When you go to Kansas City, be careful where you go if you don't want everyone to know about it. Some of your students may be there too.
Speaking of exciting moments, Selden Jones had one the other day. Loren Simons had some nice cookies with white icing that his mother had sent him. He left three of them on the mantle down at the Phi Delt house, and when he went to get them, they were gone.
At dinner the bereaved man askes if anyone had taken the rat-biscuitis that he had left in the living room. No one peeped but after dinner, Seldon, who had gradually become less and less interested in his meal, after the announcement of Loren's loss approached one of the medics;
"Say, Doc," he said, "how many of those fool biscuits would it take to make a cake?"
“Well,” the medic, “I don’t know exactly but they have arsenic in them. One would make a fellow man with you. I hate to say what two would do.”
“Is there anything that I could take” confessed the worried man.
They consulted another menu between the two they decided that three tablespoons of salts might help some. Seldon agreed willfully. Life was becoming more and more precious to him.
Now he says that if he had it to do again he would remain poisoned.

Juniors Lead in Race For Women's Interclass Basketball Championship
Seniors Win From Sophs 22-18 and Freshmen Lose by Score of 25-7
Barnett Stars for Sophs
Third Round of Tournament Will Be Played Thursday Night in Gym.
The second round of the woman's interclass basketball tournament closed with the Juniors in the lead for the championship. They defeated the freshman team by a score of 25 to 18, and the sophomores by a 22 to 18 score.
The senior-sophomore game was one of the fastest of the tournament. At the end of the first half the score was 6-12, with the sophomores in the lead. The seniors came back strong, and Capt. M. Castle threw three field goals in the second half. The excellent work of the senior guards prevented the sophomores from running up a larger score in the second half. Helen Barnett, captain of the sophomores, had six goals to her credit, and Helen Olson as jumping center played a good game.
In the junior-freshman game, the work of the first year team during the first half indicated that they have excellent material and should make a team to fear in another year. Lace of teamwork prevent the freshman team from large score, but they held the juniors to a 1 to 3 score in the first half.
Laura Harkrader, captain of the freshman team, played a fast game as jumping center and was responsible for two goals. Ruth Trant, junior running center was one of the fastest players on the field. In addition to her excellent work in coverage, the seniors will play the freshmen and the chance at the basket count, and scored fifteen points for the juniors.
The third round of the tournament will be played Thursday evening, February 13, at 7 o'clock. The seniors will play the freshman and the juniors will play the sophomores.

The student with a Real imagination is trying to figure out how many dollars worth of postage stamps will be saved when the Thirty-fifth Division sails for home, and the girls stop writing their daily letters.
Surely refreshing is the announcement by the Men's Student Council that a University directory is at last ready for distribution.
The directory this year is purely a student enterprise, an enterprise undertaken because of a pressing need. Not since the autumn of 1916 has a directory been published by the proper source of publication. For more than a year and a half the University has done without an absolute necessity in school life. Now because they feel it is of no use to make further requests to the state, the students have gone to the trouble and expense of issuing the book themselves.
The price of the book although low an item that should not be considered if the directory were published in the state.
The directory this year comes when the school year is more than half finished. The material for the book of necessity is in many places scanty and insufficient. Collection of material dependent upon the students and could not be obtained from authoritative sources.
The work of the Mon's Student Council is most deserving and should be given high praise. But blame and criticism should be directed at the system which does not permit ample funds for the customary free distribution of a student and faculty directory of the university. Such a publication is a recognized necessity in an institution where in ordinary times nearly four thousand men and women are occupied in work of mutual interest.
The lack of a book of this kind is a reflection upon the merit and efficacy of the institution.
DEBATING LABORATORY
The University of Kansas will meet but one team in debate this year. Two years ago we held a dual debate with the University of Nebraska, a triangular debate with Colorado and Oklahoma, and a single debate with Miss.
Last year the dual debate with Nebraska was dropped. This year the triangular debate will not be held. Instead of having five debating teams we was the case two years ago, this year there will be but one team.
Fifteen men and one woman tried the three places in the team at the out last week. More than five
times as many persons sought places as there were positions. This shows that students are interested in debating work and would afford material for more teams.
The universities with which Kansas formerly held debates desired to hold them again this year. The reason for not having them is insufficient funds. As no student enterprise tickets were sold last fall, the debating treasury is empty. An appropriation of fifty dollars, however, was received from the University in order to hold the debate with Missouri.
Is debating valuable enough to the University for it to receive an appropriation? A good debater first must be a good student, for a thorough knowledge of the subject debated is the primary essential to good debating. To know his subject, the debater must spend many hours in library reading and in studying his subject. To deliver his debate, he must learn to speak convincingly—the kind of oratory that is practical in public life.
The University is benefited by intercollegiate debates. The debating schools are drawn together intellectually, a thing which can not be done in any other way, not except athletics. High school students look up to a college debating team as they do to a football team. Many new students might be attracted if debating were better promoted.
Only the obtaining of sufficient funds holds down this art. Debating and argumentation are accredited subjects in the University; intercollegiate debating is the laboratory training of these courses. In scientific course laboratories are equipped and large appropriations are made for their upkeep. Logically, appropriations should be made for the debating laboratory, for its benefits are as valuable to the University and to the students as are the scientific laboratories.
What has become of the old-fashioned girl who wore high shoes in February?
DO YOU KNOW-
The woman who anxiously awaits the return of "her" Jackie, who is due to come back next week?
The first name of your professors?
Who the Laws would have for dancing instructor?
That every person who smokes a cigarette in Kansas is violating a law?
How many chimneys there are on the Chemistry Building?
Who are your class representatives in the W. S. G. A. cabinet?
The woman who recently was up before the disciplinary committee? How many students there are or Mount Oread?
GINORANCE OUR ONLY MENACE
The point has been well made and we have taken pains to emphasize it that ignorance is the menace that must be fought in the country in the form of bolshevism, I. W. W.-ism, or any other guise which the enemies of order and decency may assume. Even ignorance, which is far more general in America, would contain within itself all the means by designign politicians for political ends, regardless of consequences Bolshevism cannot get very far when it depends imposing upon the ignorant the belief that they can get something that they have not earned at the expense of those who by labor, diligence and trust have laid something away. Appeals of this nature always are made to and only to the ignorant; those who can inform themselves know better. There are only about 7 per cent of the people of the United States who cannot read and write, and while this is appealing in itself, it is comforting to know that from this small percentage must be drawn the element of bolshevism, in the form of an ignorant carried to its logical absurdity. Of the first 2,000,000 soldiers drawn to fight under the American flag 200,000, or 10 per cent, were illiterates, which might be terrifying in other circumstances. Fortunately in this soil, ordinarily the breeding place of bolsosevism, the seeds of patriotism, discipline and of order were sown before the destructive growth of anarchy had a chance to take root.—St Paul Pioneer-Press.
Readable Verse
Discovered by Readers of the
University Daily Kannan
A TENEMENT CHILD
She lives within a legend of her own, coupled with fairies and water sprites.
Exquisite ladies and grave, courtly knights.
Who move mid magic woodland sweetly sown.
With flowers more lovely than were ever known.
Strange lyric words no mortal ever spoke.
Drink from the lips of these enchanted folk.
Whose hours and needs on elfin horns are blean.
And their brave deeds and merry whimishes drift.
Through all her common tasks of weeding.
Laying a glamour on each homeyltry,
More real than what her neighbors so sagittically care and squator seem.
The hazy pigments of a distant dream.
—Charlotte Bucker in the New York
UNCLE SAM
KNOWING PEOPLE
How many people on the campus do you know well? With how many others do you enjoy a passing acquaintance? Do you walk to and from classes without once saying "Hello" to a fellow-student? Or, are you kept busy greeting passersby as you hurry along from one building to another? Are the faces familiar to you those of a strictly limited group of your own classmates, or do you know members of the various organizations in the University? Are there no professors you feel that you know well enough to do more than distantly nod to outside the classroom?
And why the fusillade of questions? you may ask. They are prompted by recollection of the views of a friend, a former student, who used method in cultivating friends and practicing cordiality. This student had attended college elsewhere for two years before coming here. After a few months he began checking off names in the student directory. A semester later he repeated the process. Questioning revealed the information that here was a person who measured the success of his life in the University by the readiness with which he made friends.
We were struck by the novelty of the idea. Many a time have we heard speakers whose experiences and wisdom we respected, nominate the University campus as the place where a student forms the associations which are his alliances for life. We forget a large per cent of the acquaintances we had in high school and earlier days, but the friends of our University period are forever cherished.—Ohio State Lantern.
AFTER PROHIBITION WHAT?
THE DIGGERS
The anti-sailon league representatives already have framed a drastic statue for enforcing national prohibition. It provides for an Enforcement Commission with special officers scattered through the country. An injunction f*cuture to deal with illegal sale of liquor is included. The proposed statue is highly suggestive of unpleasant possibilities. Will the unregenerate States that do not ratify the amendment do box meekly to the edict of their arid inclined sisters? In many communities will sentiment uphold the law's enforcement? The prohibition agent will in some occupy a status as unenervous as that of the revenue agent in the Tennessee mountains. Mounting restrictions on prohibition States, some coalition covenant of an entire industry will not be without an unsettling effect on financial and industrial life. Congress has a big job in providing substitute taxes. The country will be embarked upon a memorious interference with the so-called "personal liberties" of its citizens, with a prospective reveal of the issue of State Rights and other consequences difficult to force."—Leslies.
Without exception, the Aussies all hope to be sent home "by the other way, so that we can see America." We hope they will be sent home that way if they want to. Besides wishing to have them see America—which is a proud breed of dogs—we should like to have American see them. “Stars and Stripes.”
As is perfectly fair and proper, the plan now is that the Australians are to be among the first of the British forces to be sent back to their home on the other side of the world. Most of them have been out since 1914, going through the hell of the Dardaneelles and later being transported to France, where they have earned the right, if ever soldiers did, to wear that natty bonnet of theirs at such a cocky angle.
We talk about "Uncle Sam," meaning our own dear country, and year half of us don't know how the name came to be applied to the United States Government. During the war of Independence, Samuel Wilson who was one of the inspectors of provisions, and was jocularly called "Uncle Sam" by his workman, used to receive goods bearing the contractor's initials and "U. S." Thus, a shipment of provisions would be marked "E. A., U. S., meaning "Elbert Anderson, United States." But the men, ever found the joke, always read the address, "Elbert Andersson and Uncle Sam." The joke never died and Uncle Sam became synonymous with U. S. (United States.)—Woman's World.
On Other Hills
According to George A. Dean, professor of entomology in K. S. A. C., insects cost the state of Kansas each year more than three times what is spent on education. The annual loss through insects is $40,000,000. This loss is being diminished through the efforts of entomologists.
The University of Kansas is not the only college that is going to give vocational advice to students. Phillips-Exeter Academy in New Hampshire plans to aid students who are puzzling over the possible choice of a future profession or occupation to follow on leaving college, by giving a series of talks on vocational subjects. This movement has been started by the Christian Fraternity of the Academy.
Petitions are being circulated among students of Depauw University to be presented at the next meeting of the board of trustees, asking that the students be given the right to hold dances. Depauw, a Methodist institution, has forbidden dances since its foundation.

The University of Illinois women have invested more than $46,000 in Liberty bonds.
The building plans outlined by the University of Illinois before the war will be carried out as fast as appropriations can be secured from the state legislature according to Prof. James M. White, supervising architect. This program which has accumulated for several years, was halted by conditions due to the war. Although the new Education Building is almost completed, it will not be possible to occupy it before the beginning of the next school year. It is planned to start work on the new Library within two years, and meanwhile the new addition to the old Library will be finished. The McKinley Memorial Hospital, which is to be erected in Campaign with funds aggregating $90,000, a gift from Congressman Wm. B. McKinley will be started in the spring.
There is the matter of making decisions, too. Nobody can say how many men fail because they are afraid to make a decision and to stick by it. A big man once said to us, "I would rather have a man who makes instantaneous decisions and is right seven times out of ten, that, a man who fuses instincts with calculated ones and is right seven times out of ten, that, a man who fuses instincts with calculated ones and is right seven times out of ten." You must have the nerve to decide—American Boy.

Twenty-eight Women Get Red Cross Certificates
Red Cross Home Nursing certificates are at the University Hospital for the twenty-eight women who took the examination for these certificates at the end of last term.
This is the first home nursing course offered at the University which covers the requirements of the Red Cress Home Nursing course for which regular university credit is given. Last spring Miss Mary Hight of the University Hospital conducted a class which covered practically the same work but no university credit was given. This course was given in the evening and sixteen women finished.

Aggie Basketball Team Defeated Kansas Five In Games at Manhattar
Miller for Kansas and Bunger of Aggies Star in Second
The Jayhawker basketball team lost both games of the series Thursday and Friday to the Kansas Aggies in the Manhattan court. After playing the Aggies the greater part of the first game and only losing the lead in the last few minutes of play, Kansas slumped in the second battle and the Aggies had an easy time, wining by a 41-27 score.
tint.
Matthews and Miller played well for the Jayhawker in the second battle and led it in the scoring, but the brilliant shooting of Bunger, Argie forward and the steady floor play and defensive work of Captain Clarke at Jennings also played well for the Manhattan team. Clarke, however, who had tossed ten free throws in eleven trials in the first contest, made only three of a possible six chances in the second. Ernest Quigley officiated in both contests:

Lawrence High Defends Iola High 24-11, Friday
Home Team Beat St. Joseph High
In Close Game
Saturday
A serious contender for the state championship looms in the Lawrence high school quintet, coached by Julius Uhrlaub. The Lawrence aggregation has not lost a game this year, and Friday and Saturday Uhrlaub's men took the measure of the strong Iola and St. Joseph, Mo., high school teams.
Iola was easily defeated by a 24-1 score in a game that lacked interest because of its one-sidedness. The St Joe battle, however, was close until the last few minutes of the second half, when the Red and Black offense broke away from the Missourians and scored three or four field goals before their opponents could get their bearings.
coach Uhrainlab has got together five men who are speedy, fast on the floor, good goal shooters and last of all, wonderful fighters. St. Joe had the Lawrence quintet outweighed but could not cope with them on the floor.

Prospects for Kansas Track Team Are Poor; Opponents Are Strong
O'Leary, Rodkey, Haddock, Hei cer and Clift Best Men For Varsity
Usual Bear Story from Moor
frost, Works and Foreman Stars For Aggies—Sylvester For Missouri
With the poorest prospects for a winning track team Kansas has had in years, the Jayhawkers are facing two big indoor meets in the near future with the Kansas Aggies and the Missouri Tigers in their opponents. The Aggie team will take place on Monday at the Tiger dual meet will probably be March 21 at Convention Hall in Kansas City.
The Aggies undoubtedly have one of the strongest truck teams they have turned out in years. They have returned several veterans, including Jack Frost, star pole vaulter, Works, high jumper and hurler and Captain Foreman, probably the best two miler in the Missouri Valley, and besides these men, they have three real stars from last year's freshman speedsters in Neeley and Gallagher, quarter milers, and Evans, a sprinter. Neesey and Evans were stars in the state high school meet held on McCoack field in 1917, when they cleaned up everything in the dastes.
Word comes from Missouri than the Tigers are conceding the edge in the annual Kansas Missouri indoor meet to the Jayhawkers. This is probably the usual bear story that comes from Columbia, however, as Missou has returned five letter men, all almost sure point winners, and the Tiger team is strong where Kansas is weak, in the hurdles especially.
Captain Sylvester, cousin of Bob Simpson, has topped the high hurdles in 15.1-5 seconds, equaling the Kansas record. Sylvester also pole vaults more than 11 feet'. Kansas has yet to find a hurdler who is up to Valley standards, in fact. Coach Hamilton has not had a classy hurdler since the time of Dan Hazen. Heizer, the best bet in the pole vault is doing around 10 feet 6 inches Chandler, a freshman from Westporh high, has gone as high as 11 feet 4 inches in the event but is mak

Pool Will Be Opened To University Women For Swimming Classes
Term
Swimming Meets will be Worked Up in the Spring
"The swimming pool in Robinson Gymnasium will be opened for women of the University, Wednesday," Miss Hazel Pratt said, this morning. "Freshmen and sophomores may substitute swimming for their regular gymnasium classes but all University women are free to use the pool."
The pool is open for women during the following hours: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday; at 10:30 Tuesday and Thursday at 11:30; Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday at 3:30, and Wednesday at 4:30. During the other hours the pool is to be used by men.
Miss Adaldea Steger will have charge of all swimming classes for women. The water will be kept low during the remainder of the term for the benefit of all those desiring to learn how to swim.
During the spring term the fourth annual interclass swimming meet will be worked up. This meet will be followed by an intra-mural meet. The classes will be more advanced to beginners and there will be no begging classes.
The pool has not been opened earl-
lier because the filter was out of order.
Part of the filter was broken when
Fowler Shops burned last spring, and
it has just been recast. It is only
recently that the jianxi was cleaned
by Dongguan. It has been large
enough to keep the pool in good conditi-
tion.
No plans have been made as yet, to open the swimming pool when the rest of the gymnasium is thrown open for recreation, Friday and Saturday evenings.
Committees to Decide On Conduct of Enterprises
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS TUESDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUAAY 11. 1910
A joint meeting of the Students' Interest Committee and the Auditing Committee will be held Tuesday night at 7:30 in Miss Corbin's office in Fraser. The committees will act on the information which was gained at the meeting last Saturday morning. Recommendations will be made to the Senate regarding the price of admission to dances, graft or personal profit out of the student enterprises and the giving of complimentary tickets.
All Naval Units S. A. T. C.
To Receive Uniforms Soon
Warren Blazier, Chairman of Welfare Committee, Gets Letter From Great Lakes
Information concerning the issue of uniforms to former members of naval units of the S. A. T. C. has been received by Warren Blazier, chairman of the Navy Welfare Committee here, in a letter from the District Enrollment Office at the Great Lakes.
The letter reads as follows;
1. "It is the desire and intention of the Bureau of Navigation that all former members of naval units S. A. T. C. shall be furnished with uniforms. For this purpose the Disbursing Office is preparing proper forms, which will be mailed to all men who have not received clothing. This form is to be filled out and returned so that the Supply Officer may make the issues.
2. "The Disbursing Department cannot pay the men the amount of clothing allowance made for first enrolments. This amount should be credited on account and clothing can be drawn on it, only when on active duty."
Price of Law Scrim
Cut in Half by Senate
Although Funds Are Small, Managers Promise Good Party and Haley's Orchestra
The Law Scrim, the annual dance given by the students of the School of Law in honor of the men of the football team, has been limited to the price of $1.50 instead of $3.00. It will be given in Robinson gymnasium February 21. Haley's six pieces jazz orchestra will furnish the music.
"It will be the best $1.50 party ever given on the Hill," said George Melvin, one of the managers of the Scrim. "We will have the best music ever on a campus." A real party in spite of the limits put on us by University rulings.
The decorations will probably carry out the George Washington birthday day idea of red, white and blue. The tickets are now on sale, and may be secured from George Strong, William Wertz, Karl Knoll and Geo. Lewis of Law "Check" Fratnacher, Louis Rodgers, Webb Wilson, Charles Heister, Virgil Hower and Mark Law of the college; Leonard Willens of the School of Medicine, and Warren Blazer of the School of Engineering.

Reconstruction Task To Be Discussed By Women at Evanston
Y. W.C.A. Conference Will Be Held for Representatives From All Colleges
What is the college woman's place in the reconstruction period that the world is now facing, is the question that will be faced at the conference in Evanston, Ill., February 20 to February 24, by representative student leaders from all the colleges and universities in the United States.
"We speak of reconstruction so glibly," said Miss Helen Dunn, field secretary from Denver, Colo., who is visiting in Lawrence, "and we do not realize the challenge that it makes to University women for a definite stand for the right kind of living and leadership. The question is whether you would hold cannot be settled effectively unless the women have an opportunity to get together and talk the matter over."
At this conference, at least one student representative will be present from every college. Lillian Cottrell and Esther Moore have been chosen by the Y. W. C. A. to be the delegates from the University of Kansas. Dean Alberto Cochinaposua on her way home from a similar meeting of the Deans of Women which will be held in Chicago.
Leaders who will be present at this conference are: Dr. Harry F.

Students Penalized By Senate Committee
Three cases of dishonesty were brought before the Senate disciplinary committee at its last meeting. Two freshmen in the college were penalized for dishonest work in a final examination in English literature last term. Both received a failure in the course and it was decided that one must earn four additional hours to graduation.
A sophomore in the college, who acknowledged he was guilty of dishonest work in the final examination in physics, was penalized by being required to earn two additional hours of credit for graduation. This student, who realized the nature of his offense, confessed voluntarily to the committee, but after the evidence was in the hands of his instructor.
Prof.R. A.Schwegler will speak at a meeting of P lamba Theta, Tuesday evening, on "The Possibilities of Teaching as a Profession." The meeting will be held in Fraser Hall, Room 110.

K. U. Basketball Team
Plays Polytechnic Wed
The Jayhawker Basketball team will meet the Kansas City Polytechnic Institute five in Robinson Gymsnasium, Wednesday night, in the only game to be played this week. The Kansas team is expecting a hard game and is working hard to get in shape to beat the Poly quintette. Polytechnic has won several games from Missouri State Conference teams and will put up a stiff battle.
The next games on the Jayhawer schedule are Missouri at Columbia, February 19-20, and Washington University at St. Louis, February 21-22. Following that, Kansas will play a return series with the Nebraska Cornhuskers here, March 5. 6.
Plain Tales From the Hill
Harley Scott, the president of the freshman class stopped at the probate judge's office in Kansas City. Kansas with a young woman from
Yes, sir! He was on the street car with two suit cases and several people heard him give directions to the motorman to be sure and let him know when they got, to the courthouse.
Harley has always vowed that he would never marry. He says it is entirely outside of his curriculum, but when he walked boldly into that large building accompanied by a good-looking Sims, it certainly did look suspicious. Sims, it certainly did look suspicious.
Harley says that the young woman was merely making a social survey of Kansas City for her Sociology report and that she wanted to see Judge Sims because he is also judge of the court as well as the Probate Court.
He would have a hard time trying to convince the people on the street car that day however, because he certainly acted as nervous as any bridegroom.
Watch your step when you go exploring on the North College steps. They are slippier than seven hundred dollars. If you don't believe it ask Bobby Lynn. No! On second thought, you're better to just look at his eye. It will be much safer and it tells the story of his fall, just as well.
Did you notice it in the K. C. Star, the advertisement for Dean Blackmar's lecture to be given before the Westminster Congregational Church and the Blue Goose ad, resting side by side on the inside page? After this, more students will probably attend Dean Blackmar's lecture. We always thought they were in an entirely different class.
The question that is worrying the public now is, why was Earl Stanton praising the Betas on his way home from Kansas City Sunday night?
Elise McNutt took a 1:30 car back to Lawrence from K. C. Saturday, but after she had been on the train for about an hour or so, she discovered that she was bound for Leavenworth. After several exciting incidents with the conductor, a few Fords that ran gas, and a long walk across country, she managed to see the right car and pulled into Lawrence about 5:30.
That does sound fishy, doesn't it,
but she made one man believe it.
This week has been set aside by some of the K. U. women as a period of ripping and sewing. Professors need not expect any woman to come to class with her lessons prepared. Long skirts are now the thing and the women of the University positively refuse to let another Varsity dance come and go until they have ripped the hems out of everything that they own.
Greeks Will Celebrate In Smoker February 26

Kansas Psychologists Perform Big Service For American Army
University Men Help in Work of Classifying Soldiers for Service
'Intelligence Ratings' Used
Life
Methods Devised for War Time Found Useful for Civil
"Psychologists have been successful in their task of determining suitable vocations for men in the army," said Prof. W. S. Hunter today, when he told of the various kinds of work that the psychologists in general and Kansas professors in particular have done in the army.
"There are four different kinds of work that have been undertaken, the first being the classification of personnel. This work was under the supervision of W. D. Scott of the adjutant general's department of the Army. The division endeavored to classify men according to their past industrial experiences and to place them in units where their particular abilities were required. To aid in this classification, the trade test was degree of vocational expertise of the vowed in order to determine the demen. The data obtained would enable the personnel officers for example to send to General Pershing a hundred skilled auto repairmen, without risk of later finding out that the men were not adapted to their work.
"The personnel work, before the armistice was signed, was organized in all army cantonments in the country. Since that time Col. W. D. Scott has established the Scott's Efficiency Co-operation in Philadelphia, for the purpose of placing scientific personnel work in the industrial organizations of the country. Expertness of the department is mindful of before the war were first secured through the work of the psychologists and efficiency experts. When war was declared Colonel Scott obtained the introduction of personnel work in the Army and at present it is returning to civil institutions.

Panhellenic Gives $500 Saved During Rush Week To Co-operative House
Miss Corbin Outlines Project for House To Be Run on Wisconsin Plan
At the meeting of the Womanu's Panhellenic Council Monday afternoon, it was decided to turn over the $500 saved by the ten sororities by simplified rushing, to the co-operative house fund. Each of the ten sororities will give $50.
This will be the beginning of the fund, and the earning of money to furnish the house is in the hands of the executive council of the W. S. G. A. The university house ruling committee will provide the house, and will control the management of it, as they now do all student rooming houses in Lawrence, but the women who are the owners of the house will to the adviser of women will run the house themselves. It is hoped that the house will be ready next fall.
"The co-operative house will be run on the same plan as the three at the University of Wisconsin, and the three at the University of Minnesota," said Miss Alberta Corbin. "Those universities have among the most attractive student homes. Each co-operative house has a chaperone appointed by the house committee, and the women run their home on co-operative plan. It has proved a great success." She applied to Danbaker on the general co-operation of women students of the University with the new rules being put into force by the Senate. She urged simplicity of dress among the women, and advocated starting Universities dances at 8 o'clock sharp.

STOPPING THE GRAFT EVIL
Reorganization of the management
University of Kansas student activities may be looked for if the senti-
ntion expressed at the meeting Satur-
day of the Student Interests Commit-
tion of the Senate and representatives from the students is the sentiment of the entire University.
Graft is not necessarily the taking of pay for work done. It is rather the taking of an excessive sum of money, too great to balance the amount of labor exerted. In some cases, activities are kept up only through the labor and worry of the student managers. In these instances where actual service is performed, adequate but not exorbitant pay should be given.
The tendency is for the elimination of graft. While this is a most landmark tendency, care must be taken that in such elimination student activities are not killed. In other words, it should not go beyond the abolition of graft.
A check in the form of a wildly and practical auditing system is necessary to ensure honesty of management.
In deciding measures to be taken toward cutting out graft, the things to be considered are justice to the students, so that activities will be run for the greatest student benefit. The meeting Saturday showed a germ of cooperation between senate and students that may grow into better understand by both groups and more naturally beneficial action.
Partly as a graft eliminating move and partly as a measure for economy, the fixing of dance prices is an important question. A limit of $1.50 on ordinary dances with probably one舞 made bigger and more costly seems to meet the approval of students. It is pointed out, however, that weekly and minor dances need not charge the maximum price allowed, and that the big dance should be literally a big and more pretentious affair and not a cheap dance with a high price.
More definite arrangement for con- dition of student activities and less hap, hazard methods probably will go far toward making graft impossible.
THINGS THAT KILL
The University Tammany-boss politician is a bore, a menace, and a blot on the landscape. He interprets every made by an innocent student as a bid for political "honors," or as an indication that he is injured because he 'called to attain some honor. He hurries, and thinks he knows, all sorts of connections between various
students, and fancies that they are all plotting for some dark end.
The politician slips into class late. He has waited in the hall to exchange the latest news with some confrere. He comes in quietly, but with an unmistakable air of being the most import, ant member of the class. He recites in the same manner, speaking ponderously, slowly, and saying little more than nothing.
The meanderings, circumcolutions,
and daily maneuvers of the University
politician are humorous. They are so much to him, and so little to any one else.
WORTH TRYING ANYHOW
Students returning from other colleges where they witnessed basketball games often remark, "Why can't K. U. show the pep that school showed?"
Probably the large part of the answer to this question is the sad lack of organized cheering at the basketball games at the University of Kansas. The only yell that has been given at a game this year has been one wavering, poor Rock Chalk each game following the band's playing the "Crismon and the Bluc." This cheer could be made more perfect, other yells could be added, and general enthusiasm promoted by the presence of activity and of the University cheerleaders.
A game with Poly Tech will take place in Robinson Gymnasium on Wednesday night. Why not, as a change, try organized cheering under the leadership of those elected for this purpose. Fermips this will partly remedy the lack of "pep."
FORMING STUDENT OPINIO
The house presidents' council, a new organization at the University this year, is one that possesses a peculiar responsibility. It is, in the last analysis, the foundation for all student government among University women. Whether the foundation will be rock or shifting sand depends to a large extent upon the women chosen for house presidents and the spirit they possess.
There is nothing they cannot accomplish if they have the good of their school at heart. They represent public opinion among University women.
And they more than represent public opinion. They represent the power to form public opinion. A big program is ahead of them for this year. Whether they will carry it out or not will be watched with interest by advocates of student government.

Among Our Grads
Richard Hopkins, Attorney-General of Kansas, attended the University of Kansas in 1894.
While in the University, he got his training in law, arguing against his room-mute, Arthur MacMurray, in an oratorical contest. He probably began his success as a politician in the University, for while in college he was business manager of the University, the professor at that time ran by stockholders, who were all big politicians in the University.

The war has thrust a schoolmaster's task of tremendous proportions on our government. Because there are 5,530,000 persons over 10 in this country who cannot read and write in any language, the Secretary of the Interior has urged congress to enact laws to remedy this situation. The figures quoted in this connection are startling. Popular Mechanics figures up that there are nearly 700,000 men of draft age in this country who are illiterate. Aside from the big economic loss which such ignorance entails, they are vital military constituencies involved. Three million of them between 30,000 and 40,000 are in the army, cannot read the orders posted on the bulletin boards, they cannot read the mutual of arms, nor understand signals given by the Sigma Corps in time of battle—Wichita Eagle.

Basket Ball as Played In K.U. 20 Years Ago
And Jockey Club Managed "Delightful Party" in Fraser Hall
The following accounts of *r.* a basketball ball game and social function, dated back to the spring of 1899, were found recently in a collection of extracts from the Weekly Kansan which was published in those days, belonging to Dr. James Naismith, former head of the department of physical education., who is now engaged in Y. M. C. A. work overcame. Said the item:
"In a game featured by lively playing on both sides K. U. was defeated by the Y. M. C. A. of Kansas City, Mo., 10 to 5. The chief characteristic in the opposing team's playing was that whenever anyone of them got the ball, they threw for a goal. K. U. undoubtedly played a more scientific game but our basket throwing was nothing phenomenal. Sutton made one of the most senational plays of the game at the start of the second half. The ball was thrown to him and he rolled it for three yards. He was viciously beset by two Y. M. C. A. men and bending backward he threw the ball fully ten yards for a goal. The cheering was lod at this good play.
"The subscription party given Friday evening in Fraser was one of the most delightful social events of the week. The Eldridge House entrance was used again. The floor was unusual good and the music furnished by Sommers was excellent. Refreshments were served during the latter part of the evening from the stage. The party was given under the management of the K. U. Jockey Club. There were about sixty Jockey Club. There were about sixty is a great success.

Fowler Shops Making Astronomical Apparatus
An interesting piece of apparatus is being made at the Powler Shops for the Department of Astronomy. This apparatus allows astronomers to descriptive astronomy
ing points in descriptive clearer to the students than is possible to do without it. There is only one piece of apparatus in the United States similar to the one being constructed here, and that is at the University of California. It has been said that the students where this apparatus was first used, remembered the main points of beginning astronomy better than before it was used.
The apparatus consists of an axis made of a half-inch steel rod five feet in length. Around this rod as the axis is constructed several circles three feet in diameter made of three-inch steel rods. These circles represent the circles which are necessary for the students to learn and their connection with each other. In the center of the circles will be placed a globe to show the connection between the earth and the circles represented. The apparatus when completed will weigh about fifty pounds and will be finished so that it may be next quarter.

1862. Kansas has the edge on the Tigers in the weight events, and probably also has a shade the better of the Aggies, because of the fact that Marshall Haddock was one of the best weight men in the Valley last year and is back in his old form. Missouri has no old man back in the weight events. For the first time in many years, Kansas is weak in the high jump. Coach Hamilton expected Dick Treweke, star high and broad jumper two years ago, to return to school in time for track but he has not heard from the athlete. Bradley, freshman star last year, also failed to return and Ralph Rodkey has been doing the best work in the high jump. He has been doing about 5 feet 8 inches in practice. Works of the Aggies is a veteran in the high jump and Marshall of the Tigers is also a good man both in the high jump and the pole vault.

Compllying with this request the men voted that any military uniform should be considered as a full dress, to reduce the price to $4 a couple, to have no cabs or flowers, and to wear on pre-production. The women generally tend to wear no flowers, and to wear street wraps instead of evening cloaks.

Every team in the Valley is well fortified in the sprints. K. U. has Haddock for the 100 and 220-yard dashes, while the Aggies have a speedy pair in Neeley and Evans. Missouri's fastest man is Sylvester. Probably the stifter competition in the Valley will be in the quarter mile, in which Captain Dorman O'Leary excels. O'Leary's time, 50-1.5 seconds, makes him entitled to first place on the dope sheet, but Neeley of the Argies ran the quarter in 51 4-5 in the high school meet here two years ago and may be able to do better now. Farlow of Missouri is also an excellent quarter miler. He made the 440 yards in 52 2-5 seconds in the Western Conference meet at Chicago in 1987. Mattingly and Edwards are other Tiger veterans in the quarter. Kansas has Ralph Rodkey and Meric Clift to assist O'Leary. Cliff showed real promise last year, both in the 220-yard dash and the quarter, and may surprise track followers in these events. Kansas is lacking a good half-miler and Missouri has no exhalf for K. U. In the mile, the Jay-
hawkers have a good chance to clean up in the Valley with Dewall back. He has covered the distance in less than 4 minutes and 50 seconds and there are few experienced millers in Aggies is a veteran two miler with the Valley this year. Foreman of the Aggies is a veteran miler with a good record, and Oglievie and Hanna will probably run for Kansas.

Newspapers For 1859 Found In North College Tell Of Good Old Day
Museum
Rusted Tin Box of Quaint Souv enirs Is Put on Display in
The small tin box of documents found by Charles A. Colvin last spring while wreaking old North College, is now on display in Dyche Museum. For sixty years the box lay undisturbed in the northeast corner of the second floor. Rain keepings through the bottom of the box, and the papers it contains are wrinkled from the dampness.
In the box is a copy of the Lawrence Republican for October 13 of the same year. Its pages will barely hold together as one scans the columns for some item, or name, that might be familiar to people living a generation later. In those days Oakes was interested in politics flourished, and freedom of speech was agitated on the front page of the local paper.
Prof. M. W. Sterling, historian of the University says, "The box was deposited there October 18, 1859. The Free Masons, then in session in the city, publicly laid the corner stone of the first building of the University, and Solon O. Thacher and others delivered speeches."
The wedding announcement corner contains the account of the marriage of Brintal W. Woodward to Lucy M. Wilder. The Woodwards owned the large house east of Fraser Hall, on Fourteenth Street, where violets and myrtle bloom all the time. The wedding was solemnized by the Reverend Cordley, for whom one of the Lawrence grade schools is named.
A supplement to the Republican has the names of the voters in Douglas County, Kansas Territory, for 1859. There are 1568 names of men who later were to see the bitter days of the Civil War. Probably they did not want to fight with the would fight to rid the world from the Hun. If they had, the advertisement for "German Bitters" might not have filled a column of the paper.

The Kansas Engineer Arranging War Edition
The Kansas Engineer, published by the students of the School of Engineering, will appear again this spring under the following staff:
Editor, C. A. Keener; associate editor, J. J. Jacewsky; business managers, Rex L. Brown and Jack Wage; circulation manager, Warren E Blazier.
A plan is on foot to publish more than one issue a year, but at present finances will not make this probable, said Rex Brown. This year's edition will be called the "War Edition," and will include the engineers honor roll. It will also include different versions of the engineering work. Formerly known as the University of Kansas in engineering work, both in and out of service.
The Kansas Engineer has offered to allow the department of chemistry to publish a part of the "State Chemalurgist" in the Engineer, as the chemalurgist will not be able to publish a full number this year because of lack of funds.
Kansas Psychologists Perform Big Service (Continued from page 1)
tain Paterson served for fifteen months with the Medical department of the Army and was connected with the Administration of Intelligence Rating.
DOCKERAY NOW IN FRANCE
"The second line of work entered into by the psychologists was that of devising tests for training gun pointers in the navy and the detection of men who had ability in that particular line. The work was carried out under the supervision of Leuct. Commander Raymond Dodge, professor of psychology in the Connecticut Wesleyan University.
"Airing Captain Dunlap's assistants were Capt. Madison Bentley, professor in psychology at the University of Illinois and Capt. Floyd Dockerey, associate professor of psychology at the University of Kansas. Processor Dockerey is now in France engaged in testing and flying. The problems studied at Mineola were chiefly those concerned with the effects of high altitude, and the rapid change of altitude, upon the consciousness here was based upon the capness of aviators. The psychological activity of the men to withstand these effects.
"A fourth big task was to determine the relative capacity of men to acquire military training. It was directed by Major Yerkes of Harvard University. Two of the psychologists in the University of Kansas, Capt. D. G. Patterson and Capt. W. S. Hunter were engaged in this work. The results obtained by the forty psychologists in 1918, led the General Staff to extend the work to all officers and men of the army. This work required in each cantonment a staff of from two to four commissioned officers, from two to six non-commissioned officers, and a detail of forty privates."
"Work in the aviation division was the third kind undertaken. This work was under the charge of Capt. Knight Dunlap of Johns Hopkins University. The division was situated at Mineola, Long Island.
DRAFTED MEN ARE RATED
Professor Hunter said the problem of the staff was the examination of every drafted man upon his arrival

in camp. The rating given the man placed him relative to other men in respect to his capacity to learn or to adapt himself to his environment. This "Intelligence Rating" was supplied to the commanding officers of the soldier's unit and to the personnel officers. The latter used the rating in the assignment of men to their appropriate units in order that the units doing the same kind of work and that units doing special work; might possess an equal grade of men; as the machine gun battalion, might be given men of more than average ability.
"The personnel officers during the months prior to the signing of the armistice were able to pick men for given occupations in accordance with their "intelligence rating." They had at that time a tabulation of the amount of ability possessed by the general laboring men, by concrete workers, by heavy truck drivers and many others, as determined by the test. Therefore, not only a trade expert but also an intelligent man could be sent to an organization when he was called for.
ety of purposes. For example for the recommendation of the appointment of corporals and sergeants and for the choice of men for officers' training camps. This is the most accurate method that has been devised.
TESTS SPEED UP TRAINING "The Intelligence Rating was used by the company officers for a vari-
"The rating has enabled the examiner after one hour's examination to predict with a high degree of accuracy the degree of success with which a man will acquire military training. That is the examiner will understand the drafted man as well after getting this rating as his commander will ordinarily after three months' acquaintance. The importance of this is very evident when one remembers the financial and military need for the rapid training of men. "The tests and methods devised and perfected in the army are, being rapidly extended in civil life for the solution of business and educational problems. Columbia University will use intelligence tests and high school standing in place of entrance examinations. Other universities are planning to extend the work in various ways both to aid in the solution of administrative problems and to aid in vocational guidance."

Division Of Vocations To Send Questionaires To Faculty Members
Vocational Information of College Courses Desired by Director A. T. Walker
Would Assist the Students
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 12, 1919.
Prof. A. T. Walker, who was recently appointed Director of the Division of Vocations, is sending a letter to all the faculty members asking for suggestions in planning various courses suitable to the different vocations. It also is the intention of the division to give tests, such as Prof. W. S. Hunter has given in the army, to ascertain the special abilities of the students.
Sub-Committee Will Test Specia Abilities of the Students
The professional schools already take care of advising their students, but for most of the vocations in which the students are interested, the general feeling is that a wisely selected and well-balanced college course is the best preparation. The committee believes that certain courses should be connected with certain aptitudes and vocations, and help in selecting courses should remedy the aimless pursuit of credits.
The Division does not wish to be considered an employment bureau. For the present it will do nothing toward trying to obtain positions for students and its work will be confined to get-ting information. The questionnaires to faculty members ask:
"We shall wish to send students to members of the faculty for information and advice about certain vocations for what vocations may we send them
"For what vocations, exclusive of teaching, does your department contribute essential training?
"If possible, please direct us to the best printed statements about those vocations with which you are familiar—such statements as will best help students who are considering those vocations."
The committee to gather and classify this data consists of M. C. Elmer, Alberta L. Corbin, W. M. Duffus, L. N Flint and C. C. Williams.
The committee for testing the special abilities of students consists of W. S. Hunter, F. J. Kelly and Olin Templin.
Kansas City Editor Spoke To Journalism Students
Marvin Creager of K. C. Star Talked on Duties in Newspaper World
Marvin Creunger, A. B., '04, former telegraph editor of the Kansas City Star, now exchange editor of that magazine, and also in the department of journalism today.
"The reporter is the backbone of every newspaper," he told one class, "therefore be a good reporter. To be a good reporter, write facts, tersely, logically, clearly and concisely, without frills. Always consider the source of your information and do not be mislead."
In another class he talked of the community service of newspapers, and quoted the Detroit News as an example. The News always has experts on its staff to handle all utilities franchises. Some of the campaigns carried on by the Kansas City Star also were mentioned.
Suppression of news was another phase discussed by Mr. Creager.
"First you must get your news," said Mr. Creaguer, "and then it is not the province of the reporter to decide whether or not the news shall be suppressed, but the duty of the managers of the paper. The only justification for suppressing wherein he adds, "is the occasion wherein public interest is served by the emission of otherwise interesting news."
Mr. Creager also pointed out that the reporter, once his story has been put into type and printed, has no opportunity to erase an error.
Mr. Crerag is a member of the Phi Kappa Psi.

"Stem" Foster Elected Captain of 1919 Eleven
Lewis "Stem" Foster, quarterback on the Jayhawker eleven for the last three seasons and All-Valley quarter back in 1917, was elected captain of the 1919 team at the annual banquet of the squad Tuesday night. Foster has been one of the most dependable players on the Kansas team and it was his brilliant work in the last quarter of the Aggie game last fall that caused the defeat of the Manhattan team.
He will be eligible next year because of the Missouri Valley ruling making last year a blank year because of the S. A. T. C.
A Bill Allowing the cities of Kansas, which are suffering under the high prices allowed the Kansas Natural Gas Company, to go into the gas business on their own account, was introduced by Senator Nightswinger, and will be introduced into the house. The Nightswenger Bill authorizes the cities of the state, singly or in conjunction with each other to build, buy, lease, rent or otherwise acquire natural and artificial gas plants and lines either within or without the state.

Gov. Henry Allen served notice today that he was unutterably opposed to the use of any, but the English language in the common schools of Kansas. The Governor has received numerous letters and some petitions asking if it would not be soon possible to resume the teaching of various languages, chiefly German, in the parochial and private schools in Kansas. The governor's answer was "no" in large letters.

RIFLE
In the last days of a war that had taken the country for four years, Lincoln expressed the deepest feeling of the nation, in his second inaugural address. His hope was that the peace which would soon come might be lasting, and that the nations might not again be plunged into war.
The words spoken by the president in 1865 are easy to understand today. That the hope expressed in them, when the League of Nations was not even hardly conceived by statesmen, may be realized now at last, in the cry of the nation today.
"Foondly do we hope, feverfully do we pray, that the mighty scourge of war may pass away." If God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bison in its two hundred and fifty years of unequal toll shall be swanked until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by an盟盟 drawn by the盟盟, as we said three thousand years ago, so that it must be said the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous all other.
Doctor Goetz Lectures On Health Standards
"With malice toward me, with charity for alf, with firmness to the right, let us strive on so finish the work we pre in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cheer a just and lasting peace among ourselves with all nations."

"My lectures to more than 3,000 women and girls in Detroit last week have given me vital subjects upon which I shall give lectures in March to the women taking hyrgine in the city of Kansas," said Dr. Goetz today.
Doctor Goetz has just returned from making a tour in Colorado where she has been giving lectures to the women upon the subject of aiding the government in keeping up the moral and health standards of soldiers after they return to community life.

step has been taken by the government that being, the organization of a women's section for which a group of women physicians were selected from all over the United States, to give information to what the government was doing for the men by keeping up the health and moral standards.
"The work of the women's section will last until the first of March when it is to become incorporated into the educational work of the various state boards of health. In fact Kansas has already taken up this work."

The finals of the women's interclass basketball game will be played Thursday night, February 13, in the gymnasium at 7:00 o'clock. The seniors will play the freshmen and the juniors and sophomores will compete with each other for the first time this year. The standing of the teams at present is: juniors-first—seniors and sophomores-tie for second place—and the freshmen-fourth—senior. This cannot be determined until after the decisive games are played Thursday night. Fast games are being anticipated for that time. The admission to the games is a W. A.

is "Further Tests On Time of Mixing Cement"
Prof. J. O. Jones, instructor in hydraulics in the School of Engineering is a contributor to the January 23 issue of the Engineering News-Record, writing on "Further Tests on Time of Mixing Cement."
"I am of the opinion that the ability to produce good concrete in a brief period of time depends a good deal on the construction of the mixer." the article states. "Mixers may be classified according to the construction of the drum into two well defined sections, and then carry the concrete up near the top and then drop it; and those without buckets."
Professor Jones was employed as an engineer of tests on one of the large government projects last summer when he carried out some experiments which would tend to justify the statement that the minute mix is successful. Contractors have been in favor of mixing concrete for only a minute or less while many engineers have held that concrete to have sufficient strength must be mixed for a longer period.
"The stimulus for my investigation," writes Professor Jones, "was the 'bach-a-minute' slogan of the manufacturers, and a specification of one of our large railways which recharges from the hydropower in the mixer the drum shall be given four complete revolutions before discharging.'"
The article describes tests which were carried on with six mixes of various sizes and types. The results show that concrete mixed for a brief period of time has sufficient strength for all practical purposes, and that the saving of time is an important element to be considered.
Laws Observe Holiday By Cutting all Classes
"Today, Lincoln's birthday, is a legal holiday," said Uncle Jimmy Green. "and I presume that the University would have observed it as such on an ordinary year, but so many things have been changed this year that we have lost a great deal of time. Had the students of the School of Law assume the job they would do? 'No,' but they just took it for granted: Law classes are meeting today but most of the students are not here."
There are only four law students, three men and one woman, who felt bound by the University regulations this morning. The other woman and men of the school are observing the actions of the other students in the other schools of the University are meeting today as on any other day.

Shouse, manager of the hall, some time ago, accepting March 21 as the date, and contracts have now been sent to Missouri and Kansas.
The Jayhawkers will have a full month to prepare for the Tigers and Marshall Haddock, who will not come until November, will probably be ready for Missouri.
jumma Kennedy went to the Theta house for dinner Tuesday night. As she sat down to dinner she breathed a sigh of relief. The girls were all so happy and the atmosphere was so much better there than at the Kappa house where everyone goes down to it. But when you ask for fear some wicked burglar will come up their five escape and ram-sack the house again.
Plain Tales From the Hill
What was her surprise when she went upstairs to find that the ninety-five cents in her purse had been removed. Footprints were discovered outside just below the trellis. The other girls investigated and found that all together they were shy ten dollars.
Now Julia says she might just as well have stayed at home and the Thetaas say they wish she had if she had to bring the burglar with her.

HEAVEN PITY THE COLLEGE WIDOW
HEAVEN PITY THE COLLEGE WIDOW March 19, the closing of the first quarter will mark the day when several well-known women on the hill will attend college widows. A bunch of the menus go to Rodeoade third quarter.
Some of these women who have never been known to go out of their way in the past to give even a friendly nod to a man, are now smiling and bowing to all the male members of their class.
There is a reason. The medics at Rosehale don't get to come home every week-end and some of the big ones stay place until the last of the month.
Notice: If any of these bereaved women will send in their names to the Plain Tales Editor, they will be printed free of charge, so that the K. U. men will know where to call for dates.

THE BEST WAY TO DO IT
When you meet a man at a Varsity dance whom you told you were going home that week-emi.
Don't tell him that you just got a wire from your mother saying that he was dead.
Don't try to make him believe that the man you are with is a very dear cousin who dropped in very unexplicably and kept you from leaving town.
Don't look innocent and say "Oh no, I said I was going last night. You must have misunderstood me before he hurt me more than to be misunderstood."
Don't force your escort to trade a dance with him in order that you may explain in long drawn out sentences.
Just tell him casually when he passes you in the hall that if he will kindly refrain from calling you up in the future, that it will save you from a lot of unnecessary prevaricating.

Jayhawker Five Plans To Get Ahead of Jinx-- At 'Poly' Game Tonight
Fast Kansas City Team Will Give K. U. a Hard Fight
Will Play in Robinson Gym.
University Has Scored Total of 177 to Opponents' 201 This Season
After losing two games to the Kansas Aggies at Manhattan Friday and Saturday, Coach Hamilton's Jay-lawyer basketball team will attempt a back in Robinson gymnasium tonight when they play the Kansas City, Mo., Polytechnic Institute five. Kansas has not won a game since Baker was defended by three points two weeks ago and the team lost by two points wirng column tonight. The men are expecting a hard game, as "Poly" always has had a fast team and this year is no exception.
Tonight will be the first opportunity students have had for many years to see a "Poly" team in action. Although Rockhurst College won from "Poly" Saturday, the Kansas City team is fast and has victories over strong Missouri state conference teams to its credit.
A—Polytechnic has strong team
The "Poly" five is composed
largely of former Kansas City high
school stars and includes three regu-
ulars who were once members of all-
victorious Central High teams.
Three ones are Duncal, captain and
one of last year's Central pair
who is playing forward for "Poly"
and is recognized as one of the best
dribblers and floor men in Missouri;
Ramsey a former Central guard who
is playing forward now; and Soden,
who played a guard for Central.
A—Kansas in fine trim
The other members of the Polytechnic quintet are Captain Walker, a veteran from last year's team who is playing center, and Slaymaker and Smith, guards. A.K.C.
The Jayhawkers are in good shape and will attempt to come out of their slump tonight. Bunn and probably Miller will be started at the forward positions, Matthews will be used at center and Mason and Bennett or Lonborg will be on the defensive end. Miller was used at forward in both Aggie games and proved his worth by his goal shoot-

"Beau" Olcott's Quintette
To Play in Kansas City
"Fat" Nelson, Captain of 1917 Jayhawkers, to Play on Opposition Team
One of the most interesting and noteworthy basketball contests in the middle-west will be played in Kansas City tonight between the Great Lakes gobs and the Smeltzer aggregation. The gobs are being coached by Herman P. Olcott, who has a leave of absence from the athletic department of the University of North Carolina, son of the 1917 Jayhawker five, is playing on the Smeltzer team. The game will be played in Convention Hall at 8 o'clock tonight.
Coach Olcott was in Lawrence a while this afternoon visiting with friends. He predicted the game would be close, but that his basketkeepers would emerge victorious. The Great Lakes five have already cut seventeen deep water by 21 inches and record this season, and is in excellent fighting trim for the clash tonight.
Coach Oleotti also developed the best service football eleven in the country the past season, for which he was given a notable tribute by Walter Camp, one of the most noted football critics in the world. The team played in every part of the country and did not lose a single game.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1915
Let us have faith that right makes might; and in that faith let us to the end, dare to do our duty as we understand it.—Lincoln.
FERRUARY 12
A man whose nature was to forgive whose life was one of unblemished purity, the most unassuming of men, one with infinite jest on his lips and with saddest earnestness at his heart—the man, Abraham Lincoln, this year is understood with a keener realization, perhaps, than ever before, for the last twelve months mark the victorious end of another struggle to keep safe "the jewel of Liberty in the family of Freedom" toward which Lincoln did so much.
Lincoln's power of reason, his understanding, his exalted idea of the sense of right and equity and his intense veneration of what was right and good have for years been held as models and guides. Guides of such sorts are needed now at the end of this great victory as they were at the end of the Civil War.
We venerate more than ever his goodness and his statesmanship. He was never lead to fanaticism, was never carried away by enthusiastic zeal, and never hurried to support extreme measures. He was no respecter of persons and neither rank nor reputation nor services overwhelmed him. A child of the people, he had faith in their intuitions and he read those intuitions with rare sagacity.
The result of Lincoln's life and works now becomes a goal toward which the nation must work. In his time our country passed through fire and blood, through sorrows and the shadow of death to work out her deliverance. We have been spared much of that, but by the faithfulness of her sons, America must continue to prove that the present victory was deserved and worth the price.
"When you borrow, you lose a friend," said the wise student. A student who borrows has the feeling that his creditor is always eyeing him and about ready to approach him for the payment of the loan, while on the other hand, the creditor feels that the debtor is trying to avoid him at all times. College friends are often broken by these small loans.
A PLEA FOR PEP
A large body of students scattered over an undefined district, schools separated in their own buildings, no allowance for student meetings—and still we wonder at the lack of college spirit and pep.
We need the old time convocations
Lincoln's Library and Ours
FOR a man who read "every book he heard of within a circuit of
50 miles." and at that was limited to Murray's English Reader, the Bible, Aesop's Fables, Robinson Crusoe, The Pilgrim's Progress, a History of the United States, and Weem's Life of Washington, our University would seem an unending field of opportunities for research and reading. For the student who has the whole field of learning easily accessible, the University occasionally becomes somewhat of a bore.
In short, Abraham Lincoln, who read a few books by the light of a pine knot, was really a student, and considerably more of a student than the youth of the present generation, who have many educational advantages.
and rallies with their singing, rooting and discussion of student problems. In such a large institution where no chance is offered to get the students together, the need of All-University convocations is serious. It is directly connected with the deplorable lack of spirit which is so evident this year,
Many freshmen do not know what a convocation is. Many of them have never heard the Crimson and the Blue sung or the Rock Chalk rolled and echoed through Robinson Gymnasium. Few have heard the Engineers' falsetto version of "We Are the K. U. Laws."
We denounce the lack of organized cheering, the general listlessness in regard to college spirit, and the little effort expended by the cheerleaders. A big step to the solution of the problem is to resume the plan of regular All-University convocations.
Put the plan in effect and school unity and K. U. spirit will be back in all their strength.
All persons were born free and equal, but that does not seem to apply when a man holds a door open longer or lifts his hat higher for some women than for others.
PITY THE POOR PROF.
"Theses profs are getting too many cock-eyed ideas about what a fellow ought to do," declared the average student as he strode off the campus for lunch. Such is the undergraduate point of view. According to the average student the professor should have no ideas, should assign little if any work, should give no quizzes, and should lecture in a bright, entertaining, should art and unusual fashion, even if his subject happens to be Greek archeology.
If, however, the instructor really has no ideals, the student is equally disgusted. "It is no fun at all to go to Professor Blank's 'eight-thirty late,' one student has been heard to remark. "He doesn't jump on you at all, just beams and says good-morning. Why doesn't he get a little spirit and land all over us now and then?"
There seems to be no middle course which will please that coumisseur, the average student. Radical or conservative, stiff or easy, affable or grouchy—all types of instructors are cruelly criticised by the undergraduate. It is fortunate that the instructors do not mind, and consider such comment a part of their work.
LINCOLNISMS
If this country cannot be saved without giving up the principle of liberty, I would rather be assinated 'han援责它.
If this must be done, I must do it. Labour is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.
While all seems dead, the age itself is not. Under this seeming want of life and motion, the world does move, nevertheless.
If Abraham Lincoln were enrolled in the University of Kansas today, he would doubtless apply the fine art of elimination. Many phases and interests of student life would interest him, and many others he would recognize as a waste of time, energy, and intellect. He would not be the typical grind, because he was too interested in all kinds of people. He would spend some time in observation, and having a keen sense of humor, would profit by that observation and enjoy it.
No man is good enough to govern mother without that other's consent.
I don't know anything about money, and never had enough of my own to fret me.
I must study the plain physical facts of the case, ascertain what is possible, and learn what appears to be wise and right.
but I would rather be assassinated
I must not break our bonds of affection.
In giving freedom to the slave, we assure freedom to the free.
The student who becomes so harassed that his work is no longer a pleasure should meditate on the methods of study Abraham Lincoln used. Concentration, application, and unfailing interest are the marks o the real student.
Campus Opinion
SAVE THE JOKES
Editor the Kansan:
This Column is Open to all Students of the University
Why is it that thoughtlessness seems to play a great part in the makeup of the average student? He does things which he wouldn't do it he had the time to think about how they look. And he does things which he would have to have somebody else do to him.
Not long ago a student went into the library after a hard day's work, took out four or five copies of Life and went over in the corner expect to enjoy the jokes. But somebody had beat him to it. Every joke that was worth a laugh had been torn or cut out. Some student had enjoyed them, but was not willing to leave them for the next fellow.
Aren't the magazines in the library put there for everybody? If you see a good joke that you think your friend would enjoy, bring the friend to the joke, don't take the joke to the friend. H. E.
LINCOLN IN TWELVE PLAYS
While the average playboy can recall Abraham Lincoln represented on the stage as an incidental though impressive personage in a very occasion drama, there have been, it appears, more Lincoln plays written than one might imagine. Mr. Judd Stewart, a New Jersey collector of Lincoln items, has in his library twelve plays in which the great President was represented. They begin as far back as 1862. One was printed in Coburg, Germany, and bears the odd-looking title "Lincoln Anfang, Gluck und Ende." Another, "The Tragedy of Abraham Lincoln," was printed in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1876. The last on the list is the most professional: "Abraham Lincoln, a Historical Drama," by Keekan Rankin and Archibald Forbes. It is preserved in manuscript and was presented in the autumn of 1892 at Louisville, Chicago, Pittsburg, Columbus, and Philadelphia, but failed to attract the public. -Christian Science Monitor.
Prohibitionists have especial reason to celebrate Lincoln's birthday anniversary this year, wherein they have scored the double victory of liquor drought both by constitutional amendment and as a military measure. Lincoln was a teetotaler. One of the first uses made of his ability to write as a boy was to prepare an argument for temperance. This argument has since been used to a member of Congress he said in 1854, in his forty-fifth year:*
HE DRANK ONLY WATER
To the committee appointed by the Republican National Convention at Chicago, May 16, 1860, to announce formally to Lincoln at his home in Springfield, Ill., his nomination for the presidency, he said:
do not in theory, but I do in fact belong to the temperance society; in this, to wit, that I do not drink any wine. We have not done so for very many years.*

ing. He is one of the best scorsers from the field on the Kansas team.Lenbornd was used at guard at Manhattan and may be used there the next season.
In six Missouri Valley games played this year, Kansas has lost in a row after defeating the Ames quintet on the Ames court in the initial game by a 50-17 score. The Jayhawkers have scored 177 points to 201 by their opponents. Kansas has scored seventy-one field goals to eighty-four by Aries, the Aggies and Missouri and has about broken even in free throwing. Bennett and Matthews have tossed Glitty-five free throws of a possible sixty-two, while their opponents were shooting thirty-three in fifty-eight chances. Kansas has made four less fouls than its opponents. The Jayhawkers showed excellent form in free throwing in Manhattan, when they tossed nineteen baskets in twenty-four chances. It is apparent that inability to hit the basket from the field at opportune moments has placed the Jayhawker team far down the ladder in the Valley race.

Thief Climbed Trellis and Gained Entrance to the Second Floor
Dinner Hour Burglar
Ransacks Theta House
The Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority house was visited Tuesday night, by the uniquitous dinner-hour burglar, who riffed bureau drawers in three second-story rooms and stole $10 while the sorority was at dinner. The same methods of entry were used as in other recent dinner-hour robberies at so-called interns. The thief climbed a trailing entrance through a second-story window.
When sorority members returned to their rooms after dinner to discover the dresser drawers had been ransacked and small sums of money taken, and even the pocketls of a guest's coat had been gone through, a search for the burglar began, Jessie Wyatt armed with two large knitting needles leading the battalion of death. Closets were searched. As each was opened there was much jumping and screaming, when hanging garments in dark corners were poked with the knitting needles to ascertain if they hid a burglar. One woman is said even to have looked in her desk and wardrobe trunk in her eagerness to catch the thief.
Another shuddered. "Let's call the police," she said.
While the search was on one sister exclaimed, "Oh, isn't this thrilling? I wish we could have a burglar every night."
Her suggestion was met with a chorus of, "That will be pecks of fun." A member of the police force eventually arrived, searched the house and grounds, but found no robbers.

K. U. Quintet Defeats Kansas City Polytech By Score Of 50 to 34
Jayhawkers Play in Old Time Form a Part of the Match
Game Easy for Hill Men
Bunn and Miller do Bullseye Work on the Basket
In a game that was featured by Miller and Bunn put Kansas far in loose playing on the part of both teams, Kansas defeated the Kansas City Polytechnic Institute basketball team Wednesday night in Robinson gynasium by a 90-34 score. The Jayhawkers started in whitewind fashion and played in the Kansas City Chiefs in the first few minutes of play. The first half ended with the score 25-12 in favor of Coach Hamilton's men.
BUNN AND MILLER VARSITY STARS
Miller started the scoring for Kansas after a few seconds of play by caging a short field goal. Bunn followed with another and Walker scored for Poly. Ramsey also counted from the field, but field goals by the lead. Ramsey proved the mainstay for the visitors and scored half of their points in the first half. Both players scored for Ramsey for the Jayhawkers and Lonborg broke up the visitors' offense time after time by intercepting passes.
Polytech started the second half with a burst of speed after Miller had caged the first field goal for Kansas from the tippo-off. Ramsey scored twice in succession from the field and Walker contributed several free throws to the total, bringing the Poly score within seven points of the Jayhawkers' . Miller dropped out of the beginning of the two and Bennett substituted at forward. In the final ten minutes of play, Kansas resumed the offensive and Bennett counted several times from under the goal.
JAYHAWKERS SHOW BETTER FORM
SHARP ON FREE THROWS
The Jayhawk five showed improvement over the form displayed here against Missouri, although the Polytechnic quintet did not furnish real opposition. The new Jayhawk combination, with Miller playing regularly at forward and Lonborg at gaurd, showed great improvement over the lineup that began the season. Bennett also showed that he was a good forward by caging six field goals in the last twelve minutes of play. His regular position has been at guard. Lonborg displayed his superior play, as played his usual steady game. The Jayhawks also kept up their good free-throwing, Matthews and Bennett tossing four games in five chances.
Kansas
For Polytech, walker at forward and Ramssey at guard were the stars, although Duvall played well on the floor. Walker missed only one free throw in nine chances, besides caging five field goals, and Ramssey scored seven times from the field.

No R. O. T. C. For Michigan
The Michigan Alumnus reports that, acting on a resolution adopted by the University Senate Council, the Board of Regents recently voted not to establish an R. O. T. C. unit at least during the present year. Unless the Peace Conference findings make it desirable that such an organization be maintained at Michigan, and the Government strongly urges it, there is little probability that the University will take further action in the matter.
Chancellor Sells Stock In Million Dollar Sale
Chancellor Frank Strong is one of the Lawrence men included in the million dollar sale of stock in the Mutual Oil company and the Mutual Oil refinery. The members of the company had a chance to sell their common stock at seven for one and their refinery stock at two for one and all of them have accepted except S. D. Bishon.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS THURSDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 13, 1919.
The Mutual Oil company was a Lawrence company organized less than a year ago by J. R. Greenless with offices in the Lander Building. Later the offices were moved to Kansas City. It own oil fields, pipe refineries and districting stations in built a dozen states. Less than a half a year ago it organized a company in Wyoming to take over some refineries.
The company is not selling out to a rival concern but to men who want to invest their money in a growing and prosperous company. The other members of the company from Lawrence area, R. Greenstein from Lawrence and resident Michael M. Arthur from Minneapolis Underwood and S. D. Bishop (regional counsel.)
This is the biggest deal that has been pulled off in Lawrence for some time and will make a number of the men rich.
College Graduates Must
Be World's Rebuilders
Student Volunteer Secretary
Pleads for Work in Non-
Christian Lands
"The remarkable task of being practically the rebuilders of the world in the next generation is the task that is facing the college men and women today." This is the decided conviction of Mrs. R. Reed McClure, for twelve years a missionary in India, who is at the University representing the Student Volunteer movement.
"The economic and social conditions in nearly every country in the world, especially in the non-Christian lands are in a terrible state of chaos," continued Mrs. McClure, "and it is up to the college students and no one else to meet this challenge of educating the peoples of less educated students so that they be made fit to establish democratic governments for themselves and place their citizens on a higher standard of living."
An urgent call has been sent out for graduates in many varied branches. The greatest need is for doctors and nurses. Requests have been made for domestic science, music, kindergarten, and elementary grade school teachers, architects, printers, dentists, pharmacists, and art teachers.

Doris Drought Announces Committees to Take Charge of Different Shows
W.A.A. To Give Circus For All Women of K.U. In Gymnasium April
Exhibition Will Utilize Entire Gym for Various Attractions
Plan Exciting Program
"The World's Greatest Indoor Circus will be given in Robinson Gymnasium by the Women's Athletic Association April 1," Doris Drought, manager, said today. The entire gymnasium will be thrown open for the circus. The animal show will be given on the small floor on the men's side of the gymnasium, the side show on the small floor on the women's side and the big two-ring circus will progress on the floor upstairs.
Doris Drought will have charge of the big top; Grace Olsen, of the side shows; Helen Wagstaff, of the minstrel show, which follows the circus performance. Kuth Trant will be animal tamer. The freshman basketball team will act as rouloutables.
The circus is to be given by the W. A. A. for all of the women of the University. All members of the W. A. A. are admitted free and for those who are not members the admission price will be fifty cents. The talent for the circus is to be drawn from the women in the University. This is an annual affair and a special feature of the W. A. A.
Plain Tales From the Hill
In the picture at the Varsity Theater Tuesday, the travel features showed the capers of the Fiji fanatics, terrocious cannibals on a desert island. Well, well, when did the old red brick house gang at Eighth and Louisiana install a chapter in the Fijis.
WE WILL DRINK IT, TOO, IF NECESSARY
A stranger passing the river the other day remarked that it would be nice to see where there wouldn't be any water visible.
Maybe so. Maybe so. But an long as half of it is now dumped into the bath-tubs, and onto the wrist-cloths of students, we feel that every one awareness is doing his bit to keep the dead from accumulating in the river.
Keen Burwell would make an ideal travelling man. Sunday night he was coming home from Kansas City and forgot to get off at Lawrence. When he did decide to leave the train, he found he was in Topeka where he had gone while he had been napping. But that didn't worry him in the least. He simply consulted his schedule and decided to take the morning train for Lawrence. A travelling man gets used to staying anywhere.
This poem was sent special to the Kansan by Lotta Beaux who says she is getting tired of the monotony of life at K.U.:
W. S. G. A. WOMAN CARRIES A GUN
Notice: The Kappas not only have a gun at their house, but a woman who knows how to shoot it. All "funny and cute" secenarians as well as burglaries are warned that in the event of an intrusion she, being a member of the W.S.G.A. will not make any exceptions for age, color, occupation or social connections, but will aim square and true.

Journalism Jazz Limited To One Hundred Couples
Third Annual Journalism Jazz Will be Featured by Stunts and Decorations
That K. U, men and women can dance in comfort, without the customary bumps and collisions occasioned at the usual university parties in the Gym, was assured this morning by the statement of Freed Ribby, the Journalism Jazz manager who said that the ticket sale would positively stop when tickets for 100 couples were sold. "The ticket sale is progressing in great shape" said the Jazz manager, "and as soon as 100 tickets are sold, the sale will stop point-blank. A party can be ruined, even though music, decorations, programs, etc., are excellent, if the floor is crowded. We do not propose to let the reputation of the Jazz parties in the past suffer by allowing a single flow to creep into
The Journalism Jazz, scheduled for March 7, will be the third annual party given by the Associated Journalism Students. Music will be furnished by K. U.'s favorite—D. Ambert Haley, who will be accompanied by Bewinsy at the violin, and imported talent at the saxophone and drum. A special program composed of some of the latest Jazz hits will be presented by K. U., as well as nifty music, the Jazz management also promises a number of other features including clever programs and decorations.
Tickets for the Jazz are on sale by Lewis Duff, Mary Smith, Herman Hangen, Luther Hangen, Ed Hollis, Dayton Young, Louis Potucette, Homer Neville, Bramwell Harold Hall, Floyd Hockenhill and John Miller.
Kansas City Schmelzers
Give Gobs First Defeat
Broke Sailors' Record of Seventeen Consecutive Games Won
Kansas City Schmelzer's all-star basketball team sent the Great Lakes sailors to their first defeat of the season Wednesday night at Convention Hall, by a score of 45-39. The game was close from the start and at one time the gobs had a lead of ten points on the Schmelzer's. The Great Lakes five had won seventeen consecutive games without a defeat before the game with the Schmelzer's.
Milton Singer, star forward, and Captain Forrest DeBernardi, center, played well for the Kansas City team and together scored fifteen field goals. Felmley, former Illinois captain and forward, was the Great Lakes star with seven goals from the field, and Chandler of Wisconsin played a good game at center. Lawrence "Fat" Nelson, Jayhawker captain in 1917, played guard for the Schmelzer's.
Seniors Will Discuss Commencement Plans
Class Officers Hope to Make Day a Memorable Event
A meeting of the senior class has been called by Herman C. Hangen for 4:30 Friday in Room 110 Fraser. A meeting of the senior class has been urged to be present.
The University Senate has set the date for Commencement for June 16. This makes Commencement come on Monday instead of Wednesday which has been the custom from time immemorial and the meeting Friday has been called to discuss and decide which date the seniors prefer. Both sides will be presented by members of the faculty.
The invitation committee will also tell of their plans and show some of the samples they have at the meeting.
University convocations will also be discussed with a view to having speakers here with some degree of regularity.
Plans for the programs on Class and Commencement days will also be provided.
It is the plan of the senior officers this year to make commencement a big event, as it happens but once in a lifetime, and the idea of this open meeting to meet with the different departments and organizations regarding Commencement and all that goes with it.
Is University Senate Usurping Rights Belonging To Students?
Two Y's Will Give Party In Gym Saturday Night
A "Good Time College" party will be given by the Y. W. C. A. and the Y. M. C. A. Saturday night in Robinson Gymnasium. Everyone is invited to come, both non and women, to the event, chairman of the social committee.
The party will be conducted as if the people were all students in "The Good Time College." First they will register, the fee being ten cents. Then enrollment will be held, each enrolling in the department in which he is interested. Then the different departments will be expected to give stunts, featuring that particular department.
"It is going to be one of the best parties ever given," said Mary Samson, chairman of the publicity department, "and certainly one of the most original. Everyone is invited to come."
American Indian Songs Composed By Lieurance Will Be Sung Monday
First Americau Composer to Feature Music of Aborigines Will Appear in Concert
Thurlow Lieurance, who will appear in concert in Fraser Hall, Monday evening, February 17, is a new artist in American musical composition.
Probably no other American composer has gone so deeply into the customs and habits of so many tribes of American Indians or has sacrificed so much to secure accurate results.
His songs are being sung by practically all the leading artists in the concert field. Alma Gluck, Frieda Cohn, Claire and others have featured his songs.
The program will be illustrated by Indian songs sung by Edna Woolley (Nah Mee), an Indian soprano, who will dramatize most of the songs in real Indian fashion. Mr. Rex Fair will play several flute solos, as the flute is the chief Indian instrument. Prof. Carl Preyer will play Orem's Indian Rhapsody, which is based on ten Indian songs by Lieurance.
Two other concerts will be given in Fraser Hall during the winter; the Zoellner String Quartet, March 4, and Harold Henry, April 8.
Lieutenant Moss Home

Lieut. Sidney Moss, L. L. B., '16, has returned from overseas where he has been since last September with the 125th Field Artillery. "Sid" was in Bordeaux at the time of signing of the armistice and was detailed to Paris as a Chinese and Japanese translator at the Peace Conference. He joined a student affairs while in school and after graduation he was connected with a law firm in Wichita. He is a member of Kanza fraternity.
Governor Allen Asked To Address Students
It is probable that Gov. Henry J. Allen will address the students of the University at convocation.
"I wrote to him last night and invited him to speak to us," said Chancellor Frank Strong, this morning. "Of course I have not heard from him yet and probably will not see them days, but feel certain that he will come." The attention will take place until next week at any rate."
Crosby Deacon Dead
Crosby Deacon of Topeka, a former student, died in Chateaufort, France January 24. Mr. Deacon was a senior in College, and a freshman in the School of Medicine. He left school to "follow the colors" in February 1917. He was a member of the Académie des Sciences de France, former professor in the School of Medicine. Mr. Deacon was in the quartermaster's department.

Paring of Prices for Parties Causes Protest By Undergraduates
Some Difference of Opinion
Many Faculty Members Against Senate, While Not All Students Agree
The recent paring by the University Senate of admission prices to parties given and managed by students and student organizations is causing agitation among students for and against the Senate and is resulting in charges being made that the Senate is automatic and is usurping rights of students to govern themselves. This agitation seemingly is vague, but is so much a general thought in the bounds of legal procedure that it could be called the most frequently and warmly discussed University subject today.
Many students apparently believe the Senate is interfering unwarrantedly. Others uphold the Senate as a whole or in part. There is also a division in the faculty. Some of the members believe the Senate is going too far and that it is eliminating student government.
In an effort to help to a better mutual understanding of student and faculty views, The Daily Kansan has interviewed faculty members and students. It is believed that the publishing of these views may aid eventually to real team work between faculty and students. Finally, it is hoped that daily Kansan has tried to limit the subject to the answers of three questions:
First, the general question. Should the University go back to a pre-war strategy?
Second. Is the Senate attempting to take initiative and self-determination from students by fixing prices to student parties, by insisting on supervising or censoring the management of strictly student affairs?
The questions, placed indiscriminately from the total collected, follow:
Third, Should there be student representation in the Senate? Would it be desirable and fair? What plan would you prefer?
"I believe we should reinstate all the school functions and activities that were cut out at the beginning of the war," said Arthur MacMurray, head of the department of public speaking, "and get back some of that old 'pep we used to have, which is so lacking now.
"Prices for parties should be fixed by the students in joint committee with the Senate. The students should and would demand sensible prices. I am very strong for student representation in University affairs, and if it is not possible for the students to sit in the Senate, there should be a joint committee of students and Senate to decide matters that vitally interest the students. If it is possible for them to become honorary members of the Senate, that plan would be a fine one, I believe."
"The Senate action regulating the management and prices of the parties has been fully justified," said Lucene Spencer, president of the W.S.G.A. "The Senate took that action at the request of the W.S.G.A. and Men's Student Council because there wasn't enough initiative among the students to want to save themselves from graft in class parties."
"We should get back to a pre-warasis on everything as soon as possible." said Ulec "Jimmy" Green, Dean of the School of Law. "We are dead now—or at least rather quiet —there is not much college vim and go. It is not right for the Senate to fix the prices on the parties. I am one against many, and I know that it is being done in other colleges and universities, but no laws should be laid down. We should use persuasion and advice with the students. They are young men and young women, not kids, and they have good sense. We ought not to tell them what they can and can not do. The Senate should act as a charion to the students only. The big parties should be class affairs. I fought hard to keep the junior prom as a class affair. Nowdays it is no more a 'junior prom' than any other party. The Junior Prom is a college tradition and I believe in college traditions."

THE SENATE HABIT
Student graft at the University of Kansas appears to be the next thing to follow national prohibition.
The most enthusiasm that has been displayed this year by students is shown in the current discussion of the acts and probable future policies of the University Senate.
According to some persons the Senate is playing the role of pep-feeder to the students; if the students will not take the initiative, the Senate will. On the other hand, many students, perhaps the majority, believe that the Senate is acting autocratically with the idea of governing, disregardful of student wished. Agitation has started for student representation in the Senate.
We are now seeing the rise of student initiative again; it is shown by the growing protest against this Senate habit. Student representation in the Senate may be impractical, but more openness of Senate meetings and greater mutual action between this organization and the students will stop wringing and promote unity, and bring about a more just management of University affairs.
One fact remains throughout the entire discussion. There has not been co-operation between the Senate and the students. Part, it is true, is due to lack of student initiative, but also part is apparently due to the habit of the Senate of passing decrees without thorough consultation of student opinion.
1863 OR 1864?
Two professors, one senior, three juniors, and a freshman got into a discussion the other day.
"When," said the senior, "did the Civil War end?"
"1863," said one of the juniors and the freshman.
"1864," said one prof.
The others remained blankly silent, and a trip to the library was necessary to settle the question at 1865. It is to be hoped that libraries will always be conveniently on hand when University students are called upon for some of the information they learned in the eighth grade.
Olean, N. Y. has on her police force now a full-fledged woman cop. The question arises at once, will the criminals be more partial now as to which sex of the force arrests them?
If a "rake_off" is to continue in the dances the rest of the season, why not pull the "rake" in the students' direction?
China is a fortunate nation. Every one seems ready to help it. When opium was eradicated from China the cigarette was scattered all over the country. Now that booze has been given a kick by the western world, the brewers want to move their manufacturing plants to China.
WHERE IS THAT PRINT?
Many student table drawers contain gloss prints intended to be turned in for the Jayhawker, but instead relegated to the mass of temporarily forgotten material. Although arrangements were complete for turning in the prints, they were not followed up promptly, and the glosses were put with the bunch of weeks-old letters that some day will be answered.
Such a delay fosters the tendency to put things off until the last moment, when the number of things that must be done becomes large agd discouraging. The matter of turning in gloss prints illustrates the inconvenience the delaying spirit forces on other persons, by increasing the amount of their last-minute jobs.
Promptness in such action shows better preparedness for business methods and more thoughtfulness on the part of the student. One should not delay an established University publication by neglecting to do something that takes as little time and inconvenience as handing in a Jayhawker print.
If the University stokers would use a few less shovelfuls of coal these spring days the unprecedented number of students who sleep through class from too much heat would be somewhat reduced.
"Send me something sweet," has been the request of every American soldier in the training camp or at the front. The reason is that Uncle Sam, who feeds each soldier on approximately forty-eight cents a day, does not allow the amount of sugar usually consumed by men in private life. The soldier and the folks at home who have been forced to sugar economy by the food control of the war realize for perhaps the first time in recent years that as a nation we are heavy sugar consumers and regard as a necessity a food that not long ago was considered a luxury.
--cares nothing about the general good.
TESTS TO PROVE
The mental test is now being used at the University of Illinois. This test is similar to our Vocational advice that is to be given to students at the University of Kansas.
The mental test is proving of interest to the country in general. It is said to offer proof of the comparative merits of different groups of students.
The students at the Universities taking this step should profit by the thorough examination of their mental powers. Dean Charters of the University of Illinois has said, "No student need feel that his private short- comings will be made public in these examinations. Their purpose is purely scientific in nature and no public announcement of the resulting grades will be made."
A mental test will not be made here at the University of Kansas, but the Vocational committee will endeavor to help students select a vocation in which they can work efficiently and happily.
Here is something worth thinking about. Who are the men and women whom we call representative, the faculty members we remember as friends and not as pedagogues? They are the people who are best known about the University, and therefore themselves have the widest circle of acquaintances among students. The lonesome, homesick student is the one who can count the list of his acquaintances on his fingers, the one who does not improve his opportunity—Ohio State Lantern.
Walk on the grass and save the sidewalk. The state builds the sidewalk and Nature the grass.

CALIFORNIA, IN ITALY
Could I return to my wooa once more,
And dwell in their depths as I have
Kneel in their moses as I have knelt,
Sit where the cool white rivers run,
Away from the world and half hid by
Hear wind in the woods of my storm shore.
Glad to the heart with listening—
It seems to me that I then could sing
And sing as I have never sung before
My matchless, magnificent, dark-leaved firs.
I miss, how wholly I miss my wood,
That climb up the terrible heights of Hood,
Where only the branch of white heaven stirs! . . .
That stirs with its being like a vast
bean-hive!
Oh . . . once more in my life I meet
the voice of a wood that is loud and
And, oh, once more in my life to see
The great bright eyes of the antered
Oh . . . once more in my life I hear
The word is "once" and "in". The image shows the letters "Oh", "...", and "once". So, the answer is "Once more in my life I hear".

THE OLD FASHIONED GIRL
To the Kansan:
In Monday night's Kansan appeared an item which inquired what has become of the old-fashioned girl who wore high shoes in February. She is still here and in greater evidence than the silly faddest who trips about in the snow wearing low shoes and thinking that she is the last word in style. Getting a cold is so much easier to bear she asks the satisfaction of thinking that she is keeping the fashion sheet alive while her slow and "old-fashioned" sisters are behind the styles and wear high shoes.
I would venture to say that there is only one woman out of twenty-five who has the idea that it is smart to wear low shoes in the dead of winter, and yet this one woman gives the other twenty-four the reputation of being an empty husk, molded and shaped by fashion.
Just because this style stuff is run into the ground by the merest minority is no reason why the whole female population should be branded as frivolous slaves to it and if they do not know how to dress a woman has sense enough to know how to dress sensibly in the winter time I am glad to sign myself.
If Illyria is to be the name closest by the Jugo-Slaves as that of their country, another of Shakespear's states besides Bohemia will take its place in the European family of nations. The citizens of Illyria, of Shakespeare's Illyria, are very well known in literature. Everyone knows Viola and Malvolio, to say nothing of the famous sonnetes of William Shakespeare, and the name was received only in the first years of the Nineteenth Century, for the convenience of swapping into one bag all those territories which became the appanage of the Austrian crown—Christian Science Monitor.
Old Fashioned
THE ORIGINAL IDIOT
Dr. R. E. Welsh in his book, "Man to Man," tells us that many a familiar word, if we open it out and trace its origin, becomes an avenue widening before us into a field of history. He takes, for example, the word idiot. This word comes from the Greek and means one whose affairs are under control. The state absorbed each individual resident and its claims were supposed to hold first place and have first charge upon his services.
The state did not exist for the citizen but the citizen for the state. His rights and liberty were to be subordinated to the well-being of the commonwealth. Naturally, his own private affairs claimed his attention, but if he allowed these to monopolize his time and thought without caring about his civic duties, he was looked upon as a defaulter. Moreover, there was a touch of contempt in the name with which he was branded "diates," the small minded individual who lived for his own private advantage, or in the modern slang, the fellow who looks after number one and
Thus, according to the Greek standard this individual was no citizen. It would be well if we could inspire some of that feeling of contempt for such men today for the need everywhere in college and civic life is for them to forget their concerns for a while and think of the general good.
We have a host of such people in the university. They are never seen anywhere except at lectures. You need never expect to see them at any college function—they have no time for anything but studies, and their world is made up only of things that affect them personally. When they graduate it cannot be expected that they will change their habits to any extent, and thus the public service suffers.
What is needed is a revival of interest; for the university, city and nation need public soul. We need a revival of the Greek sense of patriotic and responsible citizenship, converting the "idiosis" around us into men active and interested in the public weal.—McGill Daily.

STAMPING OUT STEALING
Periodically, we are brought face to face with the settlement of the question of stealing in the Gymnasium. Again comes the announcement that a student has been dismissed for protesting that which was not his property.
It is an old story—this sneak-time that is characteristic of college communities. And because it seems so little to those who take part in it, it is even more important that it should be stamped out. We are not attempting to preach a sermon or to moralize; but stealing, and it cannot be camouflaged under any other name, is not to be countenanced in any locality and much less among people who are expected to have some degree of education and to respect in some measure the rights of others.
The University authorities have acted with wisdom in using drastic measures to stamp out the practice. The sooner undergraduates learn they are no more prudent than they are when they do things in spirit of braggadocio and fun, the better it will be—Daily Illini.

Herschel Washington, President of the Men's Student Council, said: "The University Senate should certainly go back to a pre-war basis and even still farther. It should go through a period of reconstruction. The Senate has taken initiative away from the students to a very great degree. The Senate criticizes the methods the students use, but offers no better plans for their use. The students should have some form of representation of the student body in the Senate. One member of both the men and women's council should be in the Senate, so that the students' point of view would be broached whenever a discussion, in which they are involved, should arise."
"The class parties should be open to all the University because there are not enough students in any one class to make, the party a success," said Fred Rigby, Manager of tme Journalism Jazz. "The University should slowly revert back to the pre-war basis in the next quarter and then let things run their natural course. The Senate is entirely too Prussian its attitude toward the student enlistment. I believe that the students should be allowed to set their own prices for the class parties and then if some of the students were disassatisfied let them stay away from the parties."
"Conditions in the University are now in acritical condition," said Charles Shofatfail, Manager of the Junior Prom. "I think that student representation in the Senate would help clear up matters and give a better understanding of student affairs."
"I see no reason for student representation in the Senate," said George O. Foster, registrar. "Provision for students' voice in affairs is taken care of by the Men's Student Council and the Women's Student Government Association through the Student Interests Committee. I believe that this committee is willing to listen to and present any complaints and petitions if they seem reasonable and appear to represent real student opinion. There is no desire on the part of the Senate to take the initiative from anyone if those bodies which are established will only go ahead and do things. If the Senate wanted to take control from students they would abolish the Men's Student Council and the Women's Student Government Association."
"Student representation would help faculty to get opinion of the students and help the students to see the side of the faculty," said George Melvin, one of the managers of the Law Scrium. "Representation should come from the different schools and the place of the students should be that of an advisory body without the power to vote."
Dr. Alberta Corbin, dean of women, said, "Recently the Student Interests Committee has been co-operating with students but no formal committee has been appointed. I favor student committees which unobtrudely will be formed without delay. In my opinion the greatest of the universities of Kansas is co-operation between students and faculty in setting high standards of vital thing in every student's life of the students."
"Ihink the Student Council should have more power to act or that the students should be given representation in the Senate," said Hugo "Dutch" Wedell, secretary of the University Y.M.C.A. "I believe that class parties should be stricty class affairs in order that a greater class consciousness might be developed. The University should not go back to a pre-war basis in regard to physical education. It has been shown that physical education is a very lival thing in every student's life and it should not be discontinued just because the war is over."
"Bob" Lynn, manager of the Soph Hop, said. "The University should go through a period of reconstruction that would not only put it on a prewar basis but would make things better than before the war. The student council should be the governing body of all student affairs. At present the council is a faace. The present tendency is to put all power in the hands of the Senate and to take initiative away from the student body. The students of Lawrence high school are given more power of initiative than the students of the University."
"The Senate should no more regulate the prices of the dances than it should regulate the kind of clothing worn by the students," said W. O. Hamilton, director of athletics. "These matters should be left to the
ideas and tastes of the students. never saw so many rules in a University in my life—there are so man that it would take a Philadelphia lawyer to keep you right."
"Why not try a Parent Government Association?" asked Olin Templin, dean of the College. "Pick out one hundred parents (not merely millionaires or those with high social status) and write to them asking their opinions regarding the prices of the parties."
"I do not believe that there should be student membership in the Senate," said L. N. Flint, head of the department of journalism, "But I do believe that the Senate should have access to information from the students—from a committee which is organized of students with good level heads and which is larger than the student council. Representatives of student publications should be represented in the Senate. Profiling should be cut out of the management of the big parties. It is not the one who needs the money who usually gets it. The parties should be managed by students but honor should be their only compensation."

An Orchestra Wanted For Big Outdoor Play To Be Given In June
Musical Accompaniment is Lacking for Dramatic Club Production, "Electra" of Sophocles
"Electra," the big outdoor performance to be given by students of the University early in June, is lacking in one of its necessary ingredient, an orchestra.
Musical accompaniment to events of this kind have always been furnished by a student orchestra. This year, however, there is no such organization. According to Prof. Arthur Macdonald in *The University*, he provides a good orchestra it will be necessary to hire a specially trained one.
Prof. Chas, S. Skilton is now working on the music. The cast will be chosen about the cost of Avril and Amélie. It will also be possible "possible," said Professor MacMurray.
Music for twelve first violins, four violas, four cellos, two double bases and wood wind and brass has been written. The only musical organization now in existence, except the band, is a strong string quartet. In primary, students taking Fine Arts are required to do a certain amount of ensemble work.
"An orchestra of some kind will have to be secured for the play," said Professor MacMurray. "Why not let that orchestra be of University Students, all ready and anxious to take part in one of the big things of the school year."
Professor Kendrie has spent a great deal of time in trying to work up enthusiasm and music at the same time. He declares to plead with the students longer but the teacher willing to give my time in training an orchestra of earnest musicians. It will be enjoyable work."

Colonel Walker Favors R.O.T.C. at University; Different from S.A.T.C
Officers' Camp Would Involve More Academic Than Military Training
Former Dean Here on Leave
Is Now Engineer on Staff of 19th Division at Camp Dodge, Iowa
Col. P. F. Walker, dean of the School of Engineering, who is now engineer on the staff of the 19th Division, stationed at Camp Dodge Iowa, is at the University this week on a 14-day leave.
When a reporter for The Kanas asked his opinion in regard to establishment, an R.O.T.C. unit here, Colonel Wainar said:
"I believe it is something the University should have."
The R.O.T.C. has but few points of similarity with the S.A.T.C. Colonel Walker pointed out. The S.A.T.C. was an enlisted man's training camp, a federal unit, while the RO.T.C. is an officers' training camp carried out along academic lines. The student who enrolls in the R.O.T.C. will participate in a very small amount of drill in the school year. Plans prescribed by the training section of the War College emphasize physical rather than military training, said Colonel Walker.
Since departing from the University on leave of absence in the spring of 1917, Colonel Walker has been attached to engineer regiments in the National Army, in the National Guards, and in the Regular Army. His first assignment, after receiving his commission as major, was to the 314th Regiment of the 89th National Army Division at Camp Funston, where he remained six weeks. He was then transferred to the 109th Regiment of the 34th National Guard Division, stationed at Camp Cody, N. M.
Just before this division started to go overseas, Colonel Walker was again transferred, this time to the 219th Regiment in training at Camp Humphrey. Va. This regiment of engineers was formed to be a part of the 19th Division then being organized at Camp Dodge, Iowa. He went to Camp Dodge November 1, 1918, where he has since been stationed. He received promotion to the rank of lieutenant-colonel in August, 1918, when he took command of the 219th regiment. The 19th has been demobilized as a division; however, the division headquarters remain and Colonel Walker is on the staff as division engineer.
C. C. Young will Leave University for Michigan
Colonel Walker does not know when he will receive his discharge. He expects to resume his work as dean of the School of Engineering before next September, possibly before the end of the present school year.
NUMBER 79.
C. C. Young, superintendent of the water laboratory of the University of Kansas, will not return to his position here upon discharge from the army, but will go directly to Lansing, Mich., to take a position with the bank office. He probably will be in charge of the state water laboratory in that state.
Professor Young is now camp sanitary engineer at Camp Meade, Md., and holds a commission as a first lieutenant.
Dean F. J. Kelly to Visit Kansas Colleges This Week
Dean F. J. Kelly spoke before a meeting of the city teachers of Ottawa last night, and will speak before the meeting of the Saline County Teachers Association in Salina, Saturday.
Dean Kelly is also visiting most of the Kansas colleges this week as a member of the inspection committee of the North Central Educational Association. A member of the committee to review the colleges regularly is if the schools are keeping up the requirements of their grade classification.
Dr. W. L. Burdick went to Cliburne Friday to give a lecture, as a number on their season's lecture course. Doctor Burdick will go to St. Joseph, Mo., March 5, to give a number there also on the lecture course.
Faculty Men to Attend Garver Funeral Monday
the funeral of Lieut. John D. Garver, formerly professor of mechanical engineering at the University, will be held at the home of his father, Judge T. F. Garver in Topeka, Monday. Faculty members and students in the School of Engineering who plan to attend the funeral include Dean P. F. Walker, a colonel in the army now on leave of absence from the University, Acting Dean G. C. Shaad, F. Prof. H. Sibley, Prof. A. H. Sluss, Joe R. Mahan' e19, and John J. Jakowsky' e20.
Lieutenant Garver was called to Fopeka only recently by the death of his mother.

The Proposed Arbitration of the Italian-Jugo-Slavery frontier question is for the moment in abeyance. The Italian premier informed President Wilson that it would be impossible to arbitrate over a proposal without first consulting the king and cabinet, and if necessary the parliament.
The Tourgeois Proposition for an inter-Allied military force to enforce peace was defeated by an overwhelming vote at the meeting of the Society of Nations commission today. The French and Czecho-Slovaks were the only representatives voting in the affirmative. The draft of the Society of Nations plan was then unanimously adopted as a whole. The final draft consists of twenty-six articles.
Transportation Facilities Were demoralized in Western Kansas today as the result of a severe storm which was sweeping across that section of the state under the urge of a fifty mile mule gate. Snow accompanied the wind and blocked the roads. The wrecks were blown down and news was meager. Trains on Missouri Pacific lines west of Concordia have been cancelled.
Wilson's ideals Have prevailed over France in the armistice decision. If Germany conforms to all restrictions the blockade will be slackened to aid her industrial life. The imposition that Germany demon- liberate her from control by twenty-five divisions indicates that the American ideas have prevailed over the extreme desire of the French to crush Germany.
Manufacturers From St. Louis, Kansas City and Jefferson City appeared before the Senate committee this afternoon and before the house committee on labor tonight in opposition to bills pending in both chambers to establish ankenews walking law for women.

Students Must Demand Chapel if it is Held
Senate Ruling Interferes With Proposal for More Frequent Convocations
The students must take it into their own hands and start a movement for more frequent convocations if they are to be held," said H. G. Ingham", chairman of the faculty convoction committee.
"As conditions stand now, the Senate has made a regulation which prevents us from having convocations except at 4:30 o'clock in the afternoon. It is almost impossible for the committee to call a general convocation at that hour unless we have some very well known speaker because the members do not come out as speakers, the speaker may perhaps a hundred or two students and faculty which certainly does not make a favorable impression.
"The members of the faculty committee are divided on the question of having regular University chapel in school hours. Two of the members on the committee believe the students should spend the full class period in class work and that regular chapel, because it would shorten the class periods on one day, would be unwise. Other members on the committee feel that community gatherings of the students and faculty are a vital part of the University life and that more would be gained by regular convocations than would be lost in class time."
Students Would Establish University Commons
Common Meeting Place and Permanent Cafeteria Desired At University
Student agitation resulted in a meeting of the representatives from all the organizations, Wednesday, to form a committee to obtain a University Commons.
A committee was elected from the representation and it will meet in the near future to work out a campaign. It is probable that the committee will draft plans for a building in which a permanent cafeteria can be maintained and in which reception rooms will be available for general use.
The committee consists of Edna Burch, Frances Hitchcock, Isabel Crandall, Lewis Duff, and Lewis Os-Wald.
Capt. Tony James Wounded In Service in France
Has Been With 110th Engineers Since War Was Deployed
Declared
Word has been received that Tony James, Jayhawker football captain of 1915, has been wounded in France where he was in service with the 110th Engineers. The company of which Tony James was in command went across May 2. They were then set to the Alsace front where they were employed in building roads and dug-outs, and in making barb-wire entanglements; they were not under this sensor but moved later to the Arrighone Forest sector where they did their first real work under fire September 26. Here, they were to follow up the tanks to help them if they got stuck.
Senate meeting will be held at 7:30 o'clock Monday instead of 4:30 because of the funeral of Lieutenant Garver.
The extreme energy of the American soldiers was shown by an incident in the Alsae sector. The engineers were sent out at night to put up barb-wire entanglements. They were given a supply of wire supposed to be sufficient to last them two weeks but the Americans used up the entire supply by 11 o'clock that night.

Freshmen Will Have
Pictures in Jayhawker
Frosh Will Be Allowed Individual Photographs in Peace Book
At the meeting of the freshman class Thursday night Harley Scott, president of the class, said that the meeting was merely a nucleus for later meetings, a preliminary in which to make arrangements for later activity. The class worked on plans and progress made for the woman's mixer and the men's smoker.
The main reason for calling the meeting is to put before the class the proposition offered them by the Jayhawker board, by which the members of the freshman class would be permitted to have individual pictures in the Peace Book. The motion was carried that the class reserve a space in the Jayhawker, and many pledged their pictures. Arrangements are being made whereby all the members of the class will be asked to do so.
Though the attendance at the meeting was small, those present were a representative body of the class, and showed considerable class spirit. Another meeting of the class will be held in Fraser next Thursday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, at which a much larger attendance is expected.
Sour Owl Columns Open To Student Contributions
Names of Successful Artists and Authors to Be Placed on Contributing Staff
The editor asked that students who have written material for the humor magazine hand it in promptly to any member of the Owl Board or Owl Society. Much material has been compiled already, he said.
"Cartoonists among the students will have a chance to get their work before the University in the Souw Owl," said Luther Hangen, editor of the magazine, today. "The Owl will publish worthy cartoons in its first issue of the year, the early part of March.
The idea held by some that only members of the owl society contribute to the Sour Owl is a mistake. Hangen said. Any student may contribute, he said, the Owl board of managers acting as a selecting and editing board.
"Students with a knack of drawing should hand in cartoons or joke illustrations. If accepted the drawings will be published and the artists' placed on the Sour Owl contributing staff. All illustrations may be handed to Fred Leach, art editor, or any member of the Owl Board."
Goldsmith Vice President of Kansas Architects
Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith of the department of architectural engineering was elected vice-president of the Kansas Society of Architects which held its annual meeting in Topeka January 31.
Professor Goldmith read a paper before the society on "Code of Ethics of the American Institute of Architects," after which the same code was adopted by the state society. The society recommended a law which would require the registration of all architects in the state, but it is considered doubtful if such a bill will be passed by the present legislature.

The photographs of the University men who have died in the service have been collected by Prof. M. W. Sterling and are being displayed in Fraser Hall. "We do not have room to display all of the photographs at once," said Professor Sterling, "but they will be changed from time to time until all have been shown."
Lieut. Fleeson Awarded Oak Leaf Service Medal
First Lieut. Howard T. Fleeson of Sterling, a former student in the college, has been awarded a bronze oak leaf to be worn on the distinguished service medal awarded him on October 3, 1918. He won the oak leaf near Buzancy, France, October 30, 1918.
Lieutenant Fleeson, signal corps observer for the Twelfth aero squadron, accompanied a formation of nine planes on a photographic mission in German territory and was with the three which penetrated into the enemy country and were attacked by eighteen other companies, two of whom he tried to assist were shot down. Lieutenant Fleeson fought his way back to his own lines, destroying two enemy planes in the combat.
Plain Tales From the Hill
“AND WEAR YOUR RUBBERS”—MOTHER. Pritchee, gallant gentlemen and lovely ladies, to what敛stage have we come when twenty-five undergraduate huskies can't keep an engagement $\textcircled{3}$ call for fear of wetting their feet in walking from 1409 Tennessee Street to 1116 Indiana Street? “Tis a pretty kettle of fish, as the bourter litteri have it, when beaux must needs be frightened of a sprinkling of rain and faint must use that modern instrument of communication the telephone 'to express greets that they know their engagement thereby implying that they are responsible for their well being have not supplied them with rubbers for such a contingency. Also, several women who walked in slippers through the shower to receive the non-appearing callers were sorer than ‘heck.’
YOU SNEAKING RAT, YOU O ! ! ! — What would we do if it wasn't for Valentine's day, the only day in the year that the shops print comic valentines suitable to express the feelings that the freshmen men and women both, have against all W. S. G. A. members, house presidents, and other pests of their lives who they have been yearning to caricature every since they reached the University.
Webb Wilson is some actor. They always choose him for the lover parts because he never disappoints the crowd. In the last play, however, he plays the role of a lover whose ardent advances are spurned by the fair lady. Webb finds this a hard part to take. He learns that he cannot love loversick in his speeches and then finally he gave it up and sinking down disgusted in his chair groomed;
"Oh, I can't make love without a lot of encouragement, and I never could."
1918 Electrical Graduates Are all in U. S. Service
Out of eleven men in the 1918 class of electrical engineering, according to Prof. F. Ellis Johnson, ten have been in active service while the eleventh man has been in civilian service for the government. And out of the ten men in active service, nine have received commissions in the army, navy, and marines. The tenth man had been recommended for an officer's training camp when the armistry was signed.
Two Former K. U. Men Are Flying in Florida
Rathford who was a member of the Kansan staff while in school, enlisted is the Naval Reserve Flying Corp trained his ground training at Boston.
L. Paul Rathford, c16, writing from the U. S. N. Air Station, Miami, Fla., says that he is still flying around over Biscayne Bay, burning up government gasoline.
Warren W. Woody, who played ris second year at guard on the football team in 1917, is also at Miami with Rathford in the same service. Woody enlisted last summer and received his ground training at Seattle.
Prof. H. P. Cady, of the department of physical chemistry, will give a lecture to the Graduate Club, February 28, on the subject of "Liquid Air," with laboratory demonstrations.

Junior Women Win Basketball Tourney By One Free Throw
Sophomores Crippled by Loss of Captain and Star Forward
Freshmen Win from Seniors
Results in Three Classes in Tie For Second Place
The freshmen defeated the senior team in one of the fastest games of the year, 21 to 18. This makes the senior, sophomore and freshman teams tie for second place in the tournament.
Junior women won the 1919 womans basketball tournament in the final round of the tournament by defeating the sophomore team to 10 in Robinson Gymnasium Thursday night. A free throw by-Ruth Trant after time had been called won the game for the juniors who had tied the score with the sophomores 9 to 9 in the last minute of play.
These two games were the closest and roughest that have been played on the court this year according to Coach Hazel Pratt. All of the teams were heavily fouled for crowding and over-guarding.
SOPHOMORE TEAM CRIPPLED
The sophomore team was crippled by the loss of both of their regular forwards, Captain Helen Barnett and Margaret Gwaresson, on account of illness. The two substitute forwards, Mary Olsen and Marie Brown, played an excellent game for never having played together before. Marie Brown scored 20 points and a squad this year but scored three of the nine points. Helen Olson and Medi Smith covered the center field well and showed fine team work.
The junior team did not play up to their usual standard in the game last night. Ruth Trant at forward played her usual fast game. Although she was heavily guarded, she made more saves than her team's score. Dorsis Drought played a good game at running center and threw one field goal.
At the end of the first half the sophomores were in the lead 9 to 5. The juniors gradually piled up the score in the second半分.
L FRESHMEN PASS BALL QUICKLY L
In the senior-freshmen game some of the finest team work that has been shown this year was displayed by the freshman. Harkrander and Cretcher, the centers, succeeded in getting the tip-on nearly every time and the ball went down to the freshmen goal by a series of quick passes. Light played Sparks, the other guard intercepted many of the senior passes when they came close to the goal. Jeanneette Parkinson starred for the seniors making four field goals and two free throws. Majorie Castle, the senior center played a good game although she was unable to get the tip-off from the freshmen center. The score;

The Daily Kansan sims to picture the undergraduate students to go further than merely printing the news by standing for it and playing no favorizer, to play no favorizer, to be clean, to be cheerful, to be kind, to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to serve to the students of the University.
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1919.
The university instructor may well be encouraged and dream of life on easy street when he sees the head of an educational institution carve a generous slice from a melon.
DON'T LET IT RUST
University cheerleaders have begun coming out to the basketball games, but this is not all that is necessary for real spirit at the games. Students must show their interest in the sport by giving the team the support of their presence.
The cheerleaders attended the Polytechnic game Wednesday night and tried to lead the crowd in the Rock Chalk. The old faithful fans were present and did their best, but the crowd was so small that the cheering was not forceful.
The cheerleaders say, "How can we lead them if they won't come out for the games?" It is up to the students to support the team or let school spirit rust.
Now comes the information that the famous "shortest speech of the war" was not spoken by General Pershing, but by Colonel Stanton of his staff. Some persons say the world will always credit it to the general, and remind us that General Sherman asserted he never said the three-word sentence always repeated in his name.
"KIDS" APPEAR AGAIN
A few students who revel in boisterous scrambling are again infesting the student residence district, according to reports from sorority and fraternity houses.
The singing of these serenaders is not pleasing either in harmony or content. They are not the type so much enjoyed on warm spring nights, but from evidences are men not quite themselves.
It will be remembered that a bunch of such singers carried their excitement to the extreme last year, were recognized and had to apologize for their conduct. They were admittedly thoughtless and "kiddish."
Surely no students want to perform annoying acts that later they might have to admit were "kid stunts."
One of the surest ways to make a soldier mad is to ask him about the good eats they have in the army.
The enrollment of the University of Oregon shows an increase of 16 per cent over that of last year. Unbelievable when it is remembered that
the S. A. T. C. was established there last fall!
It is not uncommon for a couple to get along like turtle doves—snapping turtle.
One of the greatest surprises and novelties a future budding literary genius call pull will be to write a war poem without employing the use of three or four cuss words.
Campus Opinion
This Column is Open to all Students of the University
Editor Daily Kansan:
Why doesn't the University maintain special classes for students who cannot spell, so that they may at least write letters correctly?
When grandma was a girl, children were taught readin', written' and 'rithmic't. Young ladies upon being graduated from the fashionable "finishing" schools were able not only to write a polite and courteous note to a friend, but also were able to spell all the words correctly.
When mother was a girl, spelling matches and spelling bees were the vogue. Mother could spell every word in her speller from one green cover to the ether. But her daughter—the girl of today—grownam's timid first grade efforts far surpassed this young woman's spelling. She sits through the lectures taking notes which resemble the rocky letters to his "dere Mable."
As the average University girl's letters are read at home and Dad and Mother learn that "Yesterday in Frazier Hall I noticed a bawled head man standing in the angel of the starway busy soddering some of the melle on the sealing." We hope Dad and Mother do not laugh; we hope they see the pitiful side, the utter and absolute tragic side of the matter.
Poor spellers exist, but not in as large numbers as the University of Kansas faculty is compelled to observe. Carelessness is the foundation for the foolish mistakes the students make in spelling. Anyone with a high-school education would feel deeply humiliated if he were quoted as saying that Washington crossed the Riney in 1492. He would feel the grace of any other imaceur, but the experience of his career goes biltley through his higher education misspelling the commonest words and covering himself with the ridicule* of the outside world which allows no discount for student excuses.
Carelessness and indifference make a combination which, if not carefully watched will instil' into the future generations a diargue for correct spelling which will make grandmain's efforts seem a foolish waste of time.

Dear Roomie:
He sent me a doden roses for a valentine, but he sent his other girl a five-pound box of candy. Which of us do you think he likes best?
May.
Dear May:
With roses eighty cents apiece, and candy at a dollar a pound, the odds seem to favor you slightly. However a college boy's affections are a somewhat uncertain proposition, and I hesitate to reassure too much.
Roomie
When your fraternity brother comes up on the campus and informs you in stern tones that the back of your neck is dirty, what can you do?
The correct thing to do in a case like that is to cut your next class and go home and improve your appearance. It is very incorrect to appear in public in such a condition. Roomie.

TRAINING FOR PEACE
It is to congress that the country must look and must call for action that will give us the system for which General Wood and Congressman Kahn are pleading, and for which, in their lifetime. Theodore Roosevelt and Augustus P. Gardner pleaded with equal earnestness. However fruifruit the achievements may be, however successful the president's trip to the old world may prove, a system of universal training for national service will be none the less needed, no matter how many treaties we sign. For every treaty adds not

"THE WINGS OF THE SHIPS"
At the watchword's change,
When the wind's note shifts,
And the skies grow strange.
—Ex
And the skies grow stubble.
And the white squall drifts.
But the sun shines bright.
And the sea burns bright.
And the flight of them past
They scatter as wild swans parting
Adrift on the wan green waste . . .
But the sun stands fast.
Of the snow-soft swarm of serene wings polished and afloat in the light.
And the flight of them飞
Is no more than the flight
Like flowers upon flowers
Like snow-colored petals
wrinkle blossomlike butterflies hover
and glimmer through the strokes of
their wings.
They flutter, a legion of flowers on the wing, through the field of grass.
Shed grace on the day.
In a festival way When hours after hours
From storm that unsettles The flower as the tree.
Through the furrowless field
the horizontal field
Where the foam-blossoms blow
And the secrets are sealed
of their harvest below
They look* in the path of the sun-
beams, as cloaks or as blossoms.

KNOW YOURSELF
David to Solomon: (I Kings; 11:2)
I go the way of all the earth; be thou strong and shew thyself a man.
Students in a University are likely to drift into the mind of thinking they must do as others do around them. Sometimes they know better and sometimes not. But the man who does not fear to do as he thinks is right is the man who will succeed.
Bv Hazel Ernst...
One cannot know what is right if he goes about with his eyes shut. He must learn to discriminate. Often he will find himself doing the very thing he condemns in others.. The case looks different because he is looking at it from the inside.
The man who has practiced watching his own actions as well as those of others knows when he is wrong and shows that he is a man by guarding himself from repeating the mistake. Others about him will see the example he is setting and remedy their own mistakes.

Overseas Man Will Enter University Next Quarter
After sixteen months service in France, Lieut. Roy Gress, who entered the University in 1916 has returned and will re-enter school next quarter. Lieutenant Gress entered the first officers training school at Fort Riley and was commissioned in the Cavalry. He was among the first to oversee the Brewers Knox Division. At the time the armistice was signed he had just been transferred to aviation and was to enter school at Tours.
"While in France I saw several K. U. men, among them, Jian Dykes, Penton Baker, L. B. Flintom, "Roof" K. U. men, and others," said Lieutenant Grass.
Lieutenant Gress was a fast man on the freshman football team in 116 and was a good prospect for the Varsity team.

K.U. Track Followers See But Faint Hope In Manhattan Meet
Aggies Said to Have One of Classiest Teams in Years
Kansas Strong in Quarter
Dewall Will\Make Good Showing in the Mile Event
The Jayhawkers will go to Manhattan Monday to meet the Aggries on the indoor track in Nichols gymnastium with the poorest track team that has represented K. U. for many years, according to Coach W. O. Hamilton. "I cannot remember when we have had poorer prospects for a winning track team than at been connected with the teams at the University, and I the Jayhawker coach." The men have not reported for practice regularly and we have had only a few out who have had previous track experience."
On the other hand, the Aggies have one of the classiest track teams in years and will probably prove hard to beat in the Valley. The Aggies have generally been weak in track and Kansas has had little trouble in winning from them, but with Foreman, Frost, Beaty, Works, Evans Neely, Gallagher and other good men, it looks like the Manhattan aggregation may make things hot for other Valley track teams.
HAWKERS WEAK IN EVERYTHING
The Jayhawkers are particularly weak in the hurdles and the field events. Hobart is the only man with experience in the hurdles and he has been out for practice only a few times and is in poor health. Schwartz, former northwest high school athlete will probably run the race for Kansas and Torrey, a new man, may be entered. Heizer from last year's freshman team is the only athlete who has been doing well in the pole vault. He has cleared the bar at 10 feet 6 inches, but Frost, Aggie veteran, has gone more than 11 feet.
For the first time in many years, Kansas is weak in the high jump. Ralph Rodkey will probably be the entry in this event, but he has never jumped higher than 5 feet 7 inches and Works of the Aggies, who was a member of the team last year, should outdo the mark. Liggitt will be entered in the shot-put for the Javhawkers.
440 MAY GO TO KANSAS
The quarter-mile is the only race in which Kansas can be considered strong and it happens that the Manhattan team's strength is also particularly in this event. Capt. "Dummy" O'Leary has covered the 440 yards in 50 1-5 seconds on an outdoor track, and made it in 52 2-5 seconds, indoors in Convention Hall in 1917, when he beat out both Missouri entries in a brilliant finish. Merle Cliff is also fast enough to give the Aggies a good 'race', and he will be a strong cog in the relay队. Neeley and Evans, the Aggie star sprinter, along with Gallagher, a quarter-miler, form a triad that will be hard to beat in the dashes, however. Duff and Wilson may be used by Coach Hamilton in the quarter or half.
Ralph Rodkey and probably Duff will run the half, and the Aggies have no experienced men in this race. Although Captain Foreman of the Aggies is an excellent distance man, Dewall of Kansas will give him a real race in the mile. Foreman is one of the best two-milers in the Valley. Oglevie and Hanna will compete against his in this event.
On comparative dope, it appears that the Aggies have the edge for the first time in several years, although they will fight hard to come out on top.
A course in the "Problems of Peace," consisting of semi-weekly lectures by prominent speakers from over the country and abroad, will be given this term at the University of Wisconsin.

K. U. Goes Backward,
Says Coach Hamilton
Believes Physical Education on A Pre-War Basis is A Mistake
"A backward step of ten years has been taken in going back to the prewar basis in physical education," said W. O. Hamilton when asked his opinion of the recent action taken by the Senate. "Universal physical training will be common in most universities before many years. K. U. would have been a pioneer in this method of training if it had continued in the course which has just been altered."
"Lack of physical training acts like slow disease," said Mr. Hamilton. "The general health of the University would be improved by universal physical training. The value of this training has just been proved by the fact that 99 per cent of the men responsible for the arm show marked physical improvement except for injuries and sickness. The members of the faculty would be better and brighter if one hour a day they would take some sort of recreation out away from the school buildings and campus."
Mr. Hamilton thinks that the main reasons why physical training is not given the attention it should have are:
1. The tendency of the students to take the line of least-resistance.
2. The people who need it most
are the ones least apt to take exercise of any kind.
3. The natural timidity of students not wanting to get into games because, through lack of training, they are less expert than others.
4. Physical training is left unt the last thing.

three members of the Executive Council
of the Women's Student Government
Association.
3. The profits resulting from the Varity dances shall be allowed to accumulate until the end of each month when they shall be equally divided between the Men's Student Council and Women's Student Association. Any possible deficit shall, likewise, be borne equally by the two organizations.

Senior Class Petitions K.U. Senate to Adopt 3-Day Commencement
Authorities Set Monday, June 16
For Commencement
Day
A petition that a 3-day commencement be arranged with baccalareate on Sunday, classday and alumni day Monday and the commencement address Tuesday is being signed by the members of the senior class.
The Senate had set Monday, June 16. At a meeting of the senior class Friday, Prof. A. T. Walker explained why the Senate had chosen Monday as Commencement Day and Professor L. N. Flint told of the old time commencement week. The seniors want a compromise of the two plans and when the petition is signed, it will be presented to the University Senate.
That all-University convocations be held at some hour in the morning is another petition the senior class authorized at its meeting Friday and which will be presented to the Senate. The senior class is the first student organization to take action on the lack of conventions which, during pre-war times, were the basis for closer unity between the departments and did much to develop college spirit.
In the first quarter and thus far in the second quarter, all convocations have been at 4:30 o'clock when there are the fewest number of students on the hill, instead of an hour in the morning when practically the whole student body is on the Hill.
There has been much agitation among the students for more convocations this quarter but very little has been said about the time of holding convocations.

Plain Tales From the Hill
IF THE SHOE FITS YOU, WEAR IT
We notice in Tid-Bits that the Bank of England once issued an order for bording clerks to wear mustaches during business hours and that they were not allowed to be refused at one time to employ shopmen who wore a mustache or who parted their hair in the middle.
Well, the young women of the University of Kansas have succeeded pretty well in destroying the popularity of the mustache but it would take more than the Bank of England and take them to make certain men now in college move that part over an eighth of an inch.
We do hope that now that snow is melting the Allemanis won't think Spring is here again and decide to paint their canoe. They have gotten it all ready to give it a fresh coat three times this year and every time it has turned cold. It looks like if they wanted to use it, the safe way is to let it go unpainted.
Several suggestions were made by the professor as to the exact reason any young lady would have for desiring the material in the book so badly that she would tear out the page.
Finally one young lady suggestes: "Well, professor, the only thing that I can think of is that Nell probably came out to test her capping iron on."
Two University women had a certain book in their room for over a week. Later when one of the books was taken to class at the request of the professor, it was noticed that a number of nages had been torn out of it.
One of the Alpha Chi Omegas who happened to be walking past old North college, noticed their porch furniture sitting against one of the sides of the old building. Someone had taken the chairs off of their porch two or three weeks before and they hadn't even missed them.
It is the boast of one young woman of Kansas University that there is no Lawrence street car that she cannot give a two blocks head start and then catch, even when she wears her new spring suit which measures exactly twenty-seven inches across.
Wait until sweeping comes and it gets warm enough to sit outside, then one missing chair from any sorority porch would be enough to start a riot.

State Senators Visit University of Kansas In Behalf of Budget
Senators Pomeroy, Snyder and Thompson Confer With Chancellor Strong
$1,311,918 Asked for 1919-20
New Heating Plant Costing $200,000 May be Included in University Budget
Senators C. E. Snyder of Leavenworth County, F. C. Pomeroy of Jackson County, and W. S. Thompson of Reno County were here today inspecting the University with regard to the University budget for the next two years.
The largest single item in the budget is for a new power and heating plant for the University to cost $200,000. According to Senator Thompson it is not probable that any appropriation will be made for a new building, but the third floor of the Administration Building will be finished.
senators Pomeroy, Snyder and Thompson are members of the Ways and Means Committee. They were in consultation with Chancellor Strong for the greater part of the morning, later making an inspection if the journalism building and of the heating plant. The committee will rule in the university and check up on the budget before it is brought up for passage in before it is brought up for passage in the present session of the legislature.
The total of all budgets for state institutions is $14,000,000. The University is asking for appropriations for 1919-20 and $1369,688 for 1920-21.

Mardi Gras Held in Gym Will Rival New Orleans Event, Says Manager
Carnival Given by Cercle Français to Help Support War Orphans
A Mardi Gras, rivaling that of New Orleans as far as is possible for one held in the gym, will be given Saturday, March 1, according to an anne-made piece this morning by Mariorie Rickard, president of the Cercle Francais, under whose auspices the event will be held.
War exhibits of various kinds will be among the free attractions and many of the organizations on the hill will manage booths. The Spanish farmhouse features telling parlor, Contetti and red lemonade—plenty of them—will be there.
Two prominent students will represent Pierrette and Pierrot and will be subjects for a "big lottery." They will dance for about five minutes, and the first three persons to guess their identity will be awarded prizes.
The evening will close with dancing
at start 10 o'clock. The doors will
open.
The purpose of the Mardi Gras is to raise money for the support of the two French war orphans adopted by the Circle Ferreca last year.
"Dates are unnecessary." Miss Rickard emphasized this morning. "Don't worry about having one. It is a regular carnival and dates are not needed."
The annual Phi Gamma Delta "Pig Dinner" was served at the chapter house Friday evening at 6 o'clock. Dancing began at the Fraternal Aid Hall at 10 o'clock. Hakey's orchestra furnished music during the dinner and for the dancing.
Tom Mulloy, c'17, of Kansas City,
spent the week-end at the Kappa
Sigma house.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate student going to go further than merely printing the news by standing for ideas in public. To play a favorlier, to be clean; to be cheerful; to be cognizant; to be committed; to be serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to help you understand the students of the University.

No pleasure is comparable to standing upon the vantage ground of truth.—Frances Bacon.
CONSIDER R.O.T.C. ANEW
The refusal of a Reserve Officers' Training Camp by the Senate at the end of the first quarter has not killed the consideration of establishing the camp. The question is coming up again in a special session of the University Senate Monday night.
The University of Kansas in not accepting the training camp has taken a course opposite to that taken in many universities. Student sentiment at the beginning of this quarter seemed to be in favor of establishing a corps. Getting a unit here would not be forcing students to enter something they did not want, because enrollment in the corps is voluntary.
If enough students want the corp and will enter and support it, th R.O.T.C. should be adopted.
The question is, "Will a sufficiently large number of students enroll in the unit?" A distaste of taking up more military training exists among many students who were in the service. A large number of these, while not opposing the training, probably would not enroll in the R.O.T.C.
In the mud rush of time, even Saint Valentine's Day went by without visible signs of "hearts and Cupid darts and such."
MORNING CONVOCATIONS
Regular convocations are apparently impossible at the University of Kansas. The University Senate has a rule preventing convocations at any other hour than 4:30 in the afternoon. Attendance at meeting at this hour would be too small to make the ordinary convocation worth while.
Objection has been raised that to shorten class periods one day and hold chapel in the morning would be unwise. It is true such a plan would necessitate a shortening of the classes from ten to fifteen minutes, but it must be remembered that there are or should be benefits from University life other than class routine.
The Kansan believes most students favor holding regular convocations. If this is the case, the students have it within their power to make such meetings possible. If enough students speak for re-establishing regular convocations, the Senate will doubtless repeal its rule against morning meetings, and the faculty convocation committee will arrange for regular gatherings.
GUARD STUDENT HEALTH
The action of the University cafeteria in posting lists of food values along the line of march, where all who eat may read, is only the beginning of a great opportunity for University service.
The University inspects rooming houses and publishes an approved list, but it makes no attempt to supervise the boarding clubs and public eating houses where student energy is, or is not, made. Right food means efficiency and general well-being, but ignorance of the principles of nutrition is prevalent among the students themselves and among the managers of eating establishments.
Since the department of home economics is able to give information derived from the best scientific sources on the subject to those who wish to learn, the University community ought not to suffer from ignorance. The University Health Committee has overlooked an opportunity for service and a vital need for reforming conditions.
Organized supervision of boarding clubs could be put into effect. Instruction is necessary first. At called meetings of club managers and public caterers, information prepared by the department of home economics would soon provide a working knowledge of calories and proteins and vitamins. Suggested menus could be sent out regularly from the department, and a special officer chosen by the Health Committee could inspect the clubs frequently. Each club would be graded and a certain standard would have to be maintained. Such a program could be carried out with great ease, and would result in a marked improvement of student health.
The day of the calorie is here, whether or not the committee chooses to recognize it. In an institution where scientific methods are supposed to rule, it is a mistake for the authorities to allow the bit or miss methods of uninformed managers of student boarding places to retard the physical welfare of the University.
The freshman class is going to have a picture section in the 1919 Jayhawker. Why not have each first-year man appear in the photograph with a freshman cap on his head?
SENIORS WANT CONVOCA TIONS
The senior class in its mass meeting Friday afternoon voted to petition the University Senate that the regulation against holding convocations at other times than 1:30 o'clock be repealed and regular convocations be held in the morning.
Probably what influenced the seniors most in their decision was their memory of the convocations they attended during their first two years at the University. They saw the good the meetings did for them and for the school and found it desirable for a reestablishment of the custom of holding convocations regularly.
Campus Opinion
By recent issues of the daily papers, we have seen that the establishment of an R. O. T. C. at the University of Kannas is being advocated once more. The recent action of the senate in rejecting this proposition was in entire accord with our ideas and we regret to see it again in agitation, this period. I take this means of inviting attention to our reasons for believing that such an institution has no place at the University.
Editor of the Daily Kansan:
The advocates of military training claim that such training improves the man in at least three ways, viz: that it gives him a better physique, that it teaches him the meaning of discipline, and that it improves his moral character. It approaches the thwarted desire of a woman by an R. O. T. C. can give any of these presumed advantages to an appreciable extent.
The R. O. T. C.'s in actual operation prove this. The one hour slovely drill characteristic of these detachments must not be confused with the eight hours, daily, of hard, active, outdoor exercise which the average soldier in the army gets during his period of training. 'Physical benefits resulting from this drill do not even approximate one-eighth those derived by the soldier from his life, owing largely to the difference in the efficiency of the drill masters, the character of the work, and the training required. The soldier results from his regular habits of living, which cannot be enforced in the R. O. T. C. system.
Anyone who has seen an R. O. T. C. system in operation knows that the discipline of these organizations is a joke. The discipline of the army is derived from practically a cast of characters, tied upon the life of the University.
The moral advantage to be derived from the work of an R. O. T. C. can manifestly be no greater than that derived from the gymnasium work and Hygiene course now required of all students.
The installation of such a system will make an additional demand upon the time of the student, and for this reason the standard of work which can be required in the academic courses must, in fairness to the student, be lowered to compensate for this reduction of his time for study. We do this by thinking that a system which is derived from such a system which will equalize the disadvantage of lowering the standard of academic work.
Those who heard the recent address of Major General Leonard Wood, who is perhaps America's foremost advocate of military training, will recall that even he minimized the military benefits of such a system. He recommended that he train his military lines, but stated in his opinion the drill of student cadet corps failed to achieve its intended purpose.
It seems to us that the addition to the curriculum of the university of courses on so wide a field as the science of war, particularly if made a requirement for any class, would encourage the tendency toward a superficial education. In it the student body would find added excuse and discouragement to be content with a smattering of education in a great many subjects while getting no real knowledge.
As seniors will leave the University this year, our interest in this matter is not of a personal nature but is due to the fact that we do not wish to see an action taken which it seems to us, would be detrimental to the best interests of the school. Having seen REN's performance at Ohio State University and at the University of Illinois, we feel that the establishment of this system at the University of Kansas would be a serious mistake.

American troops in France received a more careful and prolonged training than could possibly be given most of the regiments hurriedly raised during the Civil War. General Pershing tells the story of a volunteer battalion of rough backwoodmen that once joined General Grant. He admired their fine physique, but disdusted the capacity of their uncount commander to handle troops promptly and efficiently in the field, so he said.

R. O. T. C. AT PENNSYLVANIA
The maneuver proved a brilliant success and the self-elected colonel was forthwith officially commissioned. —Ladies Home Journal.
We have been asked by the government to re-establish an R.O.T.C. Unit at the University of Pennsylvania. Ordinarily any request of our country would be honored—our institution has an enviable record in this respect. These are certainly not ordinary times, however, nor can this latest government action be considered an ordinary one in any sense. Frankly, indications of every sort would seem to show that this move at Washington is a decidedly poor one. Colleges everywhere have been and are rebelling at the thought of another R.O.T.C.—a very close relation to "gone but not forgotten" S.A.T.C.
There used to be time when anything transacted at the Nation's Capitol was considered beyond reproach. Criticism meant treason. Fortunately, such is no longer the case. During the war the administration was frequently criticised in no uncertain terms. And the result very often was that we were able to know New York that we are vis-a-vis with a problem which affects us all as University men, there can surely be no harm in airing the facts.
Preparedness is a great thing. So is patriotism. And unquestionably military life is a benefit, physically and mentally. These confessions concern generalities, however. When we come to consider them in relation to Pennsylvania during this session, the paramount importance of all but patriotism is appreciably reduced. Every man in the University at this time (the exceptions are negligible) has, until recently, been connected with some arm of the service. All of their best work was done when we were quite willing to sacrifice time for the great cause. Now we have returned to these neglected scholastic duties, and in almost every case it will be necessary to "put on extra steam" to gain any headway during the few months remaining this year. A degree is at stake in many cases.
To attempt an R.O.T.C at such a time is unwise, expressing it mildly. Unless made compulsory (a thing entirely impossible at this institution), military training at Pennsylvania this year would be a dismal failure. Judging from interest shown to date, less than a hundred men would take the course. We need not feel that this record expresses lack of patriotism on our campus. Similar conditions exist at Yale and elsewhere.

Press Comment Favors Willard Wattles' Book In Kansas and the East
First Poems of "Lanterns in Gethsemane" Written While Author was in College
Much comment has been made by the press favorable to the book of poems by Willard Wattles, "Lanters released by the publisher late in 1918.
The book is of great interest to students and faculty members of the University of Kansas because its author is a K, U. graduate and an instructor here, only recently resuming his position in the Department of English in the School of Engineering after being in the army at Camp Funston since last spring. The first poem for the volume was written in the year Mr. Wattles received his Bachelor of Arts degree from the University, 1909.
The favor with which the poems have been received is shown by the fact that many of them were printed by national magazines before being incorporated in the "Laters in Gethsomane." Though some critics say they do not agree with all the sentiments expressed, they praise the writer's earnestness and sincere expression.
The nature of the book of poems is brought out in the following comment by Harold Chase in a recent issue of the Toeka Capital:
"A new Kansas book of verse that is not local but universal, is Willard Wattles' 'Lanters in Gethsemane,' as the title implies, poems of religion. It would be a mistake to infer that they are for that reason trite or conventional. 'Is there anything new in religion?' Read Willard Wattles' remarkable book and see. These poems have the greatest variety in form and they present the religion of Gethsemane, of Galilee, as a living and even thrilling thing, full of charm and of vitality. There are pictures of Mary and Joseph, of the little Christ, of the life of the time, that modernize the Gospel epic in intense and glowing verse. There is a new school of poets in England and America, which exaltes humanity and common life, in its earnestness and sincerity, a cheerful contrast to the dilutate experimenters in socialistic free love, sentimentality and moral anarchy, which it took the moral earnestness of war no time to blot out entirely. That artificiality is now apparently done, for Willard Wattles in 'Lanters in Gethsemane' proves his claim to a place among the sincerest and best equipped of the young revivers of poetry here and in England."
Ross F. Sanderson, pastor of the Lawrence Congregational Church calls Willard Wattles "porphas the leader" in the literature U on the literary map of America."
It is not only in Kansas that the new book has aroused interest. The Boston Transcript has commented thus: "Mr. Wattles has embedded for secular interfaiths a spirit essentially spiritual, so often curated by its own creation and expression in words and made it creatively imaginative and beautiful."
Comedy of S.A.T.C.Takes
Its Final Curtain Call
Actors Still Wait for the Ghost to Walk and Wardrobe Keeper to Appear
A new comedy has been finished,
the S. A. T. C, says the Outlook of
February in an account of the S.
A. T. C. from the serious point of
view, of a college president. Says
the Outlook's article in part:
"This is Monday, and on Saturday our Students' Army Training Corps was demobilized. I said that the bays were demobilized, but of course they were occupied." The team has come on time except orders and they usually have come ahead of time.
"We had an abundance of officers, including an expert in bayonet practice; we had an abundance of men, half of them had already had military training in an R. O. T. C. or in a summer camp; we dug trenches and constructed dummies for bayonet practice. But "rifles" No, indeed.
"Clothing had been coming for weeks, but of course had not arrived, so I wired to our Senator and received this reply: 'Department has telegraphed authorities Fort X to immediately equip students from fort's supply of clothing, avoiding further delay.' I replied by wire that Fort X, an old army post located near our town, had been abandoned for eight years and had no supplies nor authorities in charge of them.
Some one might be injured—perhaps even shot. The men were demobilized after two months training, fourteen hours a day, and never laid hands on a rifle. Can I ever cease to be thankful for such a committee on Education and Special Training, who saved my dear boys from this peril?
"We got the best of one deal with the committee anyway. Our commanding officer, an experienced retired captain of the Regular Army, wired his requisition for a sufficient supply of cots, mattress covers, and blankets, and signed his telegram as an army officer should, 'Smith, C. O.' Three days later, September 12, a telegram came from the committee, addressed to President C. O. Smith. It was identical to one which I had received a few days before. Apparently the committee in Washington did not understand how a requisition should be signed and I had to wire back and explain that 'C. O.' stood for 'Commanding Officer.'
"The students were oblited to study, under supervision, and never before did the old Library see such a sight. Every seat filled with a man, and every man deep in a book. A miracle? What a pity it was so deeply suggests an old English epitaph on infants' tombstones;
'Since I was so quickly done for.
I wonder what I was begun for?"
In conclusion he says, "I am sorry for the boys who were so earnest and and who now feel as though they were deceived in every particular. I talked with one bright fellow just before he left for home—a sophomore who had never been to college or maybe month year. 'I am sorry that I cannot go on with my college course,' he said, 'but it is too late to find work enough to carry me through. I might earn my board and room but I could not pay my tuition.' The colleges were so heavily in debt that they could not give tuition free so these boys were forced to drop out of school.
"As a result are it to ascertain whether the S. A. T. C. organizations had a good or poor influence upon the Universities and Colleges."

Professor Walker & Detective.
Because of the good work of Prof. A.T. Walker, who took the office of detective, Professor Walker was reprimanded by the Disciplinary Committee of the University Senate for cutting down pine trees in the yard of Professor Walker. After his trees were cut down, Professor Walker took the initiative and after some investigation, found the partly burned trees in the back yard of the organization. When the matter was brought before the fraternity by the Disciplinary Committee, the member found the member had already gone to all arrangements for paying for the trees. For that reason a more severe penalty was not imposed.

How Much Electricity Required to Kill a Rat?
"How much of an electrical shock does it take to kill a rat?" This is a sample of the freak questions sent by electrical engineers for solution.
The senior electricals conducted a scientific experiment Wednesday to answer the question and decided that it all depends on the constitution of the rat. Some of the rodents gave up the ghost when only 250 volts were applied, while it took about 500 volts to electrocheine the more athletic speciessuch as lizards which had the strength of the ordinary lighting circuit.

Nebraska's Quintet Puts Different Aspect On Conference Race
Missouri Tigers are Shoved Into Second Place by Two Defeats
Aggies Appear Contenders
The basketball race in the Missouri Valley assumed a different aspect last week when Coach Stewart's Nebraska Cornhuskers won two games from the Missouri quintet at Lincoln. Missouri had been expected to win the Valley championship again this year with very little trouble, but the two defeats puts the Tigers in second place.
Jayhawkers Will Play Four Games on Eastern Trip This Week
The gymnasium at Lincoln is very small and this may have something to do with the Tiger losses, but the Missouri forwards seemed unable to hit the basket with any degree of regularity
The Jayhawkers finish their season with a pair of games with the Huckers in Robinson gymnasium early in March.
AGGIES IN LIMELIGHT
The Kansas Aggies also came into the limelight last week and became real championship contenders when they twice defeated Drake at Des Moines by large score. The Aggies have not yet lost a conference game, but they will find the going rather rough when they strike the Tigers and Huskers. In Captain Jackson and Hustker for at forwards and Schellenberg at Center, the Cornhuskers have a fast and aggressive quintet of scorers. The Aggies also have three excellent men on the offensive in Hinds and Bunger, forwards, and Captain Johnny Clarke, guard.
ny Clark, guard
Coach Hamilton's Jayhawks will take their eastern trip this week and will play the Tigers in Columbia on Wednesday and Thursday and Coach Rutherford's Washington University basketteers in St. Louis Friday and Saturday.
METF AGGIES HERE LAST
Unless the Crimson and Blue five stiffens up and plays a better brand of basketball, the team may return with more losses than victories. Kansas will fight to have, last ditch against Missouri, however, and may be able to give Tigers a drubbing in at Massacre game. Missouri has beaten Washington two games, but even then the St. Louis team showed strength and with four members of last year's team back, they will prove dangerous, Dunccker, forward, and Captain Marquard, center, are among the best goal shooters in the Valley and Russell at guard is a fighter.
Following the eastern trip, the Jayhawkers will meet the Kansas Aggies in a pair of games here, and hope to get revenge on the Manhattan five for the defeat suffered at Manhattan. Then they will end the season with Nebraska as their opponents, early in March.
Sport Beams
The Baker University basketball team practically won the state championship Saturday night at Baldwin when they defeated the Ottawa University five. Ottawa won the title last year but the goal shooting of *Buner*, Baker forward, put the Methodists to the front and kept them there. Baker had already defeated Southwestern college, the only other real contender.
Bogue, an end on the Kansas Aggie football team last fall, has been elected to captain the eleven next fall. Rhoda, an All-Village guard who has been in military service, will be out of the army in time to play again next fall, and halfback Potuek will also be out for the team then.

Profession of Nursing Needs College Women In Executive Positions
Miss Alberta Cady Answers Vocational Questionnaires Sent By University
"That hospital supervisors are desperately in need of women of character, dignity, and education," is the opinion of Miss Alberta Cady, B. S. '18, in a letter to Dr. Alberta Corbin in response to one of the recent questionaires sent out by Doctor Corbin. Miss Cass says, "The positions open to college trained women, are those requiring executive ability, such as teaching, writing and editing for nursing journals."
Miss Cady was graduated from the University of Kansas in 1918, with her major in Home Economics. She is now a student nurse in New York City. Miss Cady entered the Vassar Training Camp for nurses during the war and it was through that division that she secured her present work.
In her letter to Miss Corbin she says, I feel very strongly, since my training at Vassar Camp, the crying need for college women in the profession of nursing. One begins to realize that need when she studies the history of the trials of our pioneer nurses, and sees the actual hospital conditions and the tremendous loss of lives by ignorance and neglect."
She continues to say, "Nursing is a profession which has been looked upon as a branch of domestic service for too long a time and it is high time that women realize the importance and by virtue of the vote and personal influence place it on the same time as that of the medical profession.
001.
"I think Vassar Camp will help to increase the colleges and universities in putting a nursing preparatory course into the college curriculum and thus draw a class of women into our hospitals who have more educational background than the average student nurse.
"I feel that if college girls only new some of the things about our great American hospitals, they would lo wonders in uplifting the nursing standards and bettering conditions both in the training of the hospitals by entering the professors or workers or using their influence."
Order, accented, distilled water from McNish Bottling Works. Phone 158-269.
Miss Cady uses the importance of shortening the hours of nursing. She says that they are too long at present to attract women who can make good salaries at other work.

Aggies Take Track Meet From Kansas By 46 to 38 Score
Kansas Wins Four Firsts and Manhattan Seven Firsts
Rodkey in Closest Race
Gallagher is Star, Scoring Four Firsts for the
The Jayhawker track team lost its first indoor meet of the season to the Kansas Aggies at Manhattan Monday night by a score of 46 1-3 to 38 2-3. Gallagher, Aggie spinner, was the individual star of the meet and his work in winning four firsts in the hurdles, dashes and shot put won the meet for the Manhattan team. Kansas took four firsts and seven seconds and the Aggies took seven firsts and four seconds.
The Jayhawkers cleaned up both places in the quarter mile when Merle Cliff sprang a surprise and finished ahead of Captain O'Leary and Neely, the Aggie speed demon. Neely was touted to win the event but the place. Devill lost the nail by a narrow margin to Watson of the Aggies.
The closest race was between Ralph Rodkey and Beckett of the Argies in the half mile, in which the Kansas runner led most of the way and refused to be passed at the tape. Harold Hartow took two seconds in the low and high hurdles, and Ogivec came out second to Captain Foreman of the Argies in the two-mile. Ralph Rodkey won second place in the high jump which was taken by B frost of the arggies with a leap of 5 feet 4 inches.
The Jayhawkers were given first in the relay because it was decided that Gallagher of the Aggies ran only two weeks, but two-tiered two Manhattan men for first

Lieurance's Melodies Of Indian Folk Songs Please K. U.Audience
A Second Concert Will be Giver At Haskell Thursday Night
"The American Indian has a song for every activity of his life," said Mr. Lieurance. "Music has a part in every religious, tribal and social ceremony; every phase of life finds expression in its death it be farewell, victory, or hunt."
Fraser Chapel was well filled Monday night to hear Thurlow Lieurance and company in a program of Indian music and songs, the third concert of the University concert course. A special feature of the program was an Indian Rhapsody played by Prof. Carl A. Preyer, pianist, of the School of Fine Arts.
Mr. Lieurance, who is a Kansas composer and ethnologist, analyzed the Indian melodies and traced their relation to the tribal customs of the Indians. With the exception of drums, rattles and whistles, the flute is practically the only instrument used by the Indians, according to Mr. Lieurance.
Miss Edna Wooley (Nah Mee)), soprano, a noted interpreter of Indian music, sang two groups both of which were well received. The first group included: "In Mirrored Waters," a canoe song with Sioux text; "Wounded Fawn," introducing a medicine pipe song from the Creeenne; "By Weeping Waters," characteristic from the Northwest; and "Netknets," a Sioux love song; and "The Owl's Bleak Cry," introducing the scale of the flute.
The second group contained three numbers; a Pawnee love song, a Pueblo lullaby; and a ceremonial dance and melody. "Hymn to the Sun God." This last song pleased her hearers greatly.
Mr. Lieurance at the piano and Miss Frances Morley at the flute accompanied each song. Miss Morley also played two flute solos, one from the Sioux and the other from the Tewa Pueblo.
The Liurance company will give a concert at Haskell Institute Thursday evening. A number of Haskell students attended the concert last night.

W. A. A. will Give Cup to Winnea of Intra-Mural Tournament
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS TUESDAY AFTERNOON. FEBRUARY 18, 1919.
"All entries for the woman's second intra-mural basketball tournament, beginning Wednesday, February 26, must be handed in by Wednesday noon," said Miss Hazel Pratt this morning. The following teams have been entered: Kappa Alpha Theta, Alpha Xi Delta, Gamma Phi Beta, Pi Beta Phi, Alpha Chi Omega, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Kappa Phi, Ochoh, and Brush League. Last year there were sixteen entries but this year there will only be time for twelve.
The intra-mural tournament is given by the W.A.A.W. which offers a cup to the winning team. The officials for the tournament are drawn from the W.A.A.W. This helps to get the official in good trim for the high school tournament, which comes later in the spring.
Each team entered in the intra-mural tournament must have a manager who coaches the team. Not less than eight and not more than ten players. Each team is allowed five practices. Practices have always begun.

Student Mass Meeting Will Discuss Senate Wednesday on McCook
Follows Cut in Dance Prices
Student Opinion Appar-
lieves Senate
Understand
A mass meeting of Universi-
dents has been called for Wednesday,
afternoon at 4:30 o'clock on McCook
Field to "discuss Senate rulings." The persons calling the meeting designate themselves as a "few students inter-
preter" and are required from their lievers that it is time for students to demand their rights."
The meeting probably follows the large amount of comment on the Hill in regard to Senate action in general. It is the prevalent opinion of many students that the Senate does not understand student affairs and hence not properly fitted for the alleged autocratic domination.
Much discussion of plans to reinstate student control is current. The object of the meeting probably is to further such discussion. It apparently involves a debate over scale, following the action of the Senate in limiting university parties.
Uncle Jimmy Green will be the big speaker at the freshman smoker, Thursday night. Boxing, wrestling, stunts and music will make cp the program. There will be plenty of smoke for everyone, and the matches will be furnished, according to Pete Gross, manager.

On Return from East
Governor Henry J. Allen, governor of the state of Kansas, is expected to come to the University of Kansas on a visit, immediately upon his return from Washington where he now is. He was called East to testify before a Senate committee on the charge made recently that the 35th division in France lacked equipment, food, and other necessities.
Fraternities and Faculty Will Hold Joint Meeting
The Student Interests Committee and the Auditing Committee will hold a joint meeting in Room 116, Fraser Hall, Wednesday at 4:30 a.m.clock.

Plans for Co-operation in Employment Service
University May Join With Government in Establishing Teachers' Bureau
Co-operation between federal and University agencies is the plan of the present Appointment Committee of the University.
The employment service of the Department of labor has added a bureau for the appointment of teachers to its of appointment services and is aning to establish a bureau withcretary in every state. It is most obable that the secretary for Kans will be a man from the University faculty and the bureau will be established here.
This will take care of the government bureau and will make a valuable asset for the appointment work of the University in that the service teachers will file their names for appointments and more schools will send here for recommendations for teachers.

The judges will be, Prof. C. C. Williams, Prof. F. L. Brown, and Prof. F. N. Raymond, Prof. H. A. Shinn of the public speaking department will act as critic.
This is the first time the society has attempted a debate and more than usual interest is expected. This meeting will be open to all who wish to attend.
Debaters Working Well,
Says Coach Henry Shinn
Missouri Turns Down Dual Contest Offer of Kansas
Team
"The debate men are working up in fine shape," said Coach Henry Shinn this morning. "We are going to evelop a good squad for the Missouri debate. They have been working together several nights a week, and it looks as if K. U. will have a good winning squad."
A team of three men will be chosen late in February from the eight men now working on the question. The team will be held at Columbia, March 28.
The University of Missouri refused to accept the offer of a dual debate, with the opposing side of the question being dominated by the opposite team at Lawrence.
Woodrow Wilson's book-plate may be seen any time this week on the third floor of Administration building. It reads:

Among them will be found those of the daughter of George III (1777-1849), Daniel Webster, Robert Southern, Enrico Caruso, Geraldine Farrar, Charles Monroe, and others. These book-plates were given to the Art Department by Dr. A. W Clark.

Three members of this committee were here looking over the University Monday with Chancellor Strong, and John Shen, superintendent of grounds.
R. O. T.C. May Be Established Immediately, Senate Decides
Rickety Cars Lose Balance on K.U. Loop
--in the past two weeks three stree
cars have driven off the track on the
gap between the houses.
Now comes the record-breaker. One car went around the loop this morning and fell off the track. It was off about an hour the first time. Nothing daunted, it started around the second time only to have the misfortune to run off again. This time it was off for another hour.
Employees say that it is the fault of the tracks but disgruntled studies who are forced to descend and walk across the hill don't know just what to say.
Any way, work will begin on the tracks immediately, so that these "wrecks" may be avoided. Motormen will drive slower until the tracks are leveled, so that all danger is avoided.

HOLD YOUR HATS. LADIES
Why go to the park this summer to ride on the Scenic Railway or the Ride For Life or Dash for Death. Our own Lawrence street-car furnishes all the thrills to be found in any park. Yesterday, the rails spread and the car jumped off the track just like the cars do on the figure eight when they go around the curve. One girl on the car who received quite a jolt said that she had promised her mother to go in for only harmless and sane amusement said that she guessed she would have to quit riding the street care unless she wanted to break her promise.
Speaking of being hard up... Can you beat this? One K. U. girl now has about ten letters stacked up on her table.

Make Provision for Such Units
As Are Practical
At Present
Limit for Prom Tickets is $4
Student Petitions Asking for Convocations Not Considered
The recommendation that a Reserve Officers' Training Corps be established at the University "as soon as practical," passed the Senate by a vote of 39 to 26 at a special meeting last Monday night. A previous motion to postpone the consideration until next fall was defeated by only one vote.
According to the plan discussed, the unit will be filled by voluntary election of students interested in technical work. It has not been decided yet which branch of the service will be established, but it is thought the corps should be one or signal corps. The minimum number in the corps will be one hundred.
The committee on military and physical training submitted a report to the Senate after the discontinuation of the S. A. T. C., which was voted down. At the meeting last night, Col. W. Walker gave the merits of S. A. T. C., and that now was the time to obtain the best officers for training the men.
Only juniors and seniors will be admitted to the unit, which will last two years. At the completion of the course they will be given a commission. It is the intention to excuse the men in the unit from the regular gym work, as their time will be used in studying military tactics.
At the close of the debate, the Senate passed the recommendation of the joint committee, of members of the student-interests and auditing committee, that the maximum price of Junior Prom tickets be fixed at $4.00 a couple, and that the maximum price of Senior Prom tickets be fixed at $4.00 a couple as at present. The student petitions asking for convocations were not discussed.
Debating on the R.O.T.C. question lasted until almost 11 o'clock. At that time the matter of the prices of dances was taken up. It required less ten minutes for the Senate to decide on the prices as explained above.
University Honor Roll For Men Giving Lives To be Complete Record
Photographs of Each Deceased Man With Complete Facts Will be Collected
The University of Kansas is making for a permanent record, a special honor or roll of all University men who gave their lives in the service of the country together on the field of battles in training camps, or in the training schools.
For this record requests for a photograph of each deceased man, accompanied by material giving facts of late and place of birth, residence, occupation or business area, are being sent to relatives or near friends.
Phof. M. W. Sterling, Historian of War Activities in the University, has record of 110 University men who died in the war. There are probably many more, according to Professor Sterling, and it is hoped that the families of former students will assist the department in making an accurate record by sending in names that have possibly been overlooked.
"The only actual means of information we have," said Professor Sterling, 'are the casualty lists and newspaper stories. We have the facts for over half the tick, but there is delay in getting many photographs are not ready to seize. The cases the circumstances pertaining to the soldier's death are not at hand.'
The photographs on the bulletin board in Fraser Hall are only a part of those in the possession of Professor Sterling but the board is not large enough to put them all up at once. A different group will be posted next week. When the material of the record is complete it will probably be made into an album with the historical data and obituary material.

Honest error is to be pitied, not rid
icaled. — Lord Chesterfield.
A TONIC FOR SPIRIT
Regular convocations for the remainder of the present quarter could only be held wisely in the morning by shortening the class hours for the morning. But with the beginning of the next term ought to come a permanent scheme for regular convocations.
While no definite action has been taken to re-establish the old custom of having regular all-University meetings, sentiment among students is almost unanimous in favor of doing so, and probably a majority of faculty members endorse it. It is quite probable, therefore, that the custom will be revived.
The Kansan proposes the following plan for a permanent system of regular convocations:
When the schedules are arranged for the next term, leave two hours a week vacant; that is, have no classes whatsoever during these hours. The hours should be in the morning when most students are on the campus.
At one of these reserved hours each week an all-University convocation could be held. But the purpose of the second hour would be especially for the meetings of individual schools, classes, or organizations. It would decrease the number of evening and 4:30 meetings and lessen the trouble in finding suitable hours for gatherings.
While the plan naturally commends itself to those who favor convocations, its practicability is immediately questioned. Would it not mean some inconvenience in arranging schedules?
It would. It would mean shifting a few more classes to the afternoon. It would mean a little more trouble for department heads in arranging their schedules. Yet it is not impractical; it could be done.
The Kansan believes that the inconvenience the system would bring is far outweighed by the benefits of unity, information, and interest that would result. A lack of regular convocations has proved a poison to the University and to school spirit; establishment of them under a definite, permanent plan would prove a tonic.
Professor Fuser is for the League of Nations if it will mean a permanent peace. He hopes there will be no more wars, for he does not enjoy having the girls he dates with asking him questions on military matters that he does not understand.
It is deplorable, but true, that excellent foot-work and head-work are rarely found to be the accomplishments of the same person.
MENDING THE BREACH
That there is a breach between the student body and the University Senate has been evident for many years in the University. This gap has widened year by year and especially is noticed this year when the continuance or repeal of the Senate's waittime restrictions is being considered.
The students declare the Senate dictates exactly what they can or cannot do and blame it for killing all student enterprise and spirit. However, no professor, or at least very few professors are singled out as being in direct opposition to the students' desires. On the other hand the faculty criticizes the students as being irresponsible and graffers in student enterprises. In proof of this they point out students who have grafted in years past but not to students in the University now.
The cause of this breach can be traced to a general misunderstanding between the students and Senate. The Senate under the present arrangement has no way of learning the desires and opinions of the student body. The student body has no way to present its affairs directly to the Senate. The students and faculty are separate and distinct under existing conditions.
Student representation in the Senate appears to be unworkable. It would be impossible to have adequate representation for voting. Also a large amount of the Senate's work does not affect the students' interests. A few students with advisory power sitting with the Senate would have little weight with the far larger body of faculty members.
The logical method of solving the problem is to have a joint Senate and student committee with equal representation of each. All matters of student interest should go before this committee and its report made before the University Senate. The entire student body must be represented in the student membership of this committee.
This probably can be worked out best by having as members of this committee the presidents of the Men's Student Council, Woman's Student Government Association, the four classes, Y. M. C. A., and Y. W. C. A. These students with eight representative members of the Senate certainly could settle conflicting interests between the faculty and studentfeuds.
That such a committee is practical is shown by the workings of the student interests committee with the students called before it. These meetings, as testified by members of the committee, have proved successful in the solving of student problems.
Form a permanent coalition committee and the breach will be largely mended.

The crossings on the campus are in bad condition and the chuck holes numerous. When a car hits one of these mud puddles the muddy water splashes on the passers. Often good clothing is damaged or a cleaning bill results from reckless driving on campus drives when the roads are sloppy.
Do you drive your car on the campus on sloppy days? Many students do and drive their machines at a high speed taking no notice of the students near the roads and splattering their garments with mud and slush.

MUD SPLASHING CARS
The car owners need to have more regard for the pedestrians on bad days and slow down for the crossings when students are passing.

Saturday a group of freshmen and sophomores were singing for high school guests. "Please," the visiters, "Sing us the University song." There was a long pause, while sophomores and freshmen sang. "I am sorry," I never heard it," said one of them at last, and they resumed the popular ditty of Mary.
ROCK CHALK NOT KNOWN
Editor of the Kansan:
The University song has not been sung often this year or inast. The new students cannot even give Rock Chalk. Juniors and seniors who remember the old convocations with real University spirit long for frequent, live convocations.
A Senior
Until we have them, the new students will not know Crimson and the Blue, and will not have the University spirit that moves them to do their best to push things that are important for the welfare of students. In the sake of the University in its larger aspect, the juniors and seniors want convocations.
Editor Kansan:
If there is a chapter of the Theta Nu Epsilon society at the University it should be done away with. It is al-ready known that such an organization exists.
A real fraternity man will not allow himself to be initiated into the T. N. E, and the best of the nation fraternities do not allow their members to become members of the rowdy society. A list of the names of the men should be given to the students who know them and the men either required to give up their society or their University. A man cannot be true to both.

Omicron Nu Campaigning For Pure Water on Hill
Investigating Means of Obtaining Suitable Supply Immediately
Omricon Nu, national home economic sorority, has begun a campaign for better drinking water for the University and it seeking some practical and effective means for temporary relief from the present situation. According to Dr. Ida Hyde, of the state board of Health, "We should have good water in six weeks. Until the filters are installed the University should provide temporary means of having good water for the students."
Possible sources and practical remedies that are being investigated by Omicron Nu are: chemically distilled water, hauling water from the spring west of the city; installing temporary filters, and utilization of escaping steam from the power plant.
"According to the authorities, the New York Continental Jewel Company, which is the sole source of the material needed for the completion of the filters, was under government control during the past year and was not able to provide the necessary supplies for completing the water plant here. The filters are now on the way, however, but it will be two weeks or more before they arrive and it will take at least three weeks to install them.
TIE & TAIL
"We must not expect perfectly pure water even after the filters are installed," said Dr. Hyde, "for the pipes are dirty and there is not enough pressure to flush them clean. The mayor is considering a patent cleaner which was used in Kansas City with great success and it may be possible to clean the pipes here in the same way."

K.U. Five Shaken Up Before Four Contests With Missouri Teams
Better Brand of Ball Expected From Jayhawkers on Eastern Trip
Jayhawkers Seek Revenge
Kansas Aggies, Nebraska and Tigers are in Leading Positions
The Jayhawker basketball team will take their Eastern trip this week and will return games with the Missouri Tigers at Columbia, Missouri, Wednesday and Thursday, and the Washington University Pikers at St. Louis Friday and Saturday. The Jayhawker team has experienced a shapeup since the last Valley games with the Aggies and should play a better brand of ball against the Missouri teams.
The Tigers are now occupying third place in the Valley race with the Kansas Aggies on top and Nebraska in second place. The Kansas will fight hard against their old enemies, the Tigers, in an effort to get revenge for the defeats suffered here and may be able to win. The Washington live is composed largely of veterans and is always a hard team to beat on their own court. Kansas won two games from them in Robinson gymnasium last year by large scores, but went to St Louis and was beaten.
BENNETT GOES IN AT FORWARD
Johnny Bunn, who has been playing a steady game at forward all season, will play that position on the eastern trip. Howard Miller, one of the best goal shooters on the team will probably be the other forward. Although Miller has been held out of the lineup much of the time this year, he has been a strong cog in the Jayhawk offense and will add much strength to the team.
Kansas followers will watch closely the playing of Bennett, who will get into the game at forward at least part of the time. Bennett, who has been playing a fair game at guard, was suddenly shifted to forward and proved his worth there by shooting six field goals in the last twelve minutes of play against Kansas City Polytechnic Institute.
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Captain Matthews will play center, although Frederick may break into the back.
MONBORG GOOD ON DEFENSIVE
Another place where the shakeup in the lineup has netted strength to the team is at right guard, where Dutch Lonberg has been stationed. Dutch has been played forward most of the time and has been having trouble hitting the basket, but he has been shifted in the last few games with real results. In the game with Poly-tech, his intercepting of passes and all around defensive work was one of the features and he should be able to keep Captain Ruby of the Tigers from scoring many goals.
Ed Mason will play his old position at left guard, where he has displayed steadiness all season. Mason, although playing his first year of college basketball, is a good guard and is developing into one of the best men on the team, both on the offense and defense.
Kansas generally plays just as well away from home as in Robinson gymnasium and the men are determined to win their share of the games in Rothwell gymnasium at Columbia and against the Pikers' in St. Louis.
First Try-Out for Follies Will be at Gym Thursday
"The try-out for the chorus of the Follies will be in Robinson Gymnasium, Thursday at 4:30," said Mabel MacNighton today. "We want every girl who can sing and dance to be at the try-out." The date for the Follies which is being given this year will not be announced until later. The committee for the Follies will be appointed this week.

Capt. Parmalee, B. S., 09.
Writes of War with Gas
K. U. Grad Was a Division Gas Officer in Second Army Corps
In a letter to the Chicago Chemical Bulletin, Capt. Paul R. Parmalea, B.S. '09, division gas officer, Seventh Division, Second Army Corps, tells of the help rendered the troops by the chemical warfare service, especially in the last days of the war.
Captain Parmalee especially speaks of the work of a new smoke grenade, spoken of technically as the "white phosphorous" grenade, and graphically tells of his experiences in No Man's Land, during a sectional advance in the southern part of the western front near Pont a Moussin.
Captain Parmalace's work as division gas officer was somewhat that of a general overseer and inspector over the gas section his division, and the instruction of the other branches of the service in the proper uses of the apparatus of gas, liquid fire, and the other forms of attack connected with this all-important branch of the service.

Now you know it is uncommon for women to nonchalantly trespass the law school steps as it is for a snow shovel salesman to make a selling tour in the Fiji Islands. But this flowering bud of alluring beauty was different. She didn't falter a step in guiding straight-way toward a group of those sagacious barristers who criticize the present store of feminine beauty on the hill and wail about the superfluity of "good lookers" who used to haunt Mount Oread's pathways. Closer she came to the circle. Jaws refused to chew. She smiled. The old heads smiled back. The junior laws blushed.
Then she spoke.

Who Has Gobs' Subsistence Fund, Naval Unit Men Endeavor To Find
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 19. 1010
University Owes Student Sailor
$36 Each According to
Chairman Blazier
Funds Are Long Overdue
Warren Blazier, chairman of the Navy Welfare Committee, says that he has written George O. Foster, registrar of the University, regarding this but as yet has not received any information from him.
The men of the Navy here are endeavoring to find out why they do not receive the $36 subsistence money for the month of October which they signed over to the University with the assurance that they would receive it from the University after all expenses had been deducted.
October Subsistence Signed to University with Assurance School Would Refund
"The men of the Naval Unit signet two blank vouchers on December 21," said Mr. Blazier, "which were made out for the amount that each man had coming to him for subsistence for the time before the Navy moved in." Counted to $30 for all those who were inducted into the Navy, October 1."
"NO BLANKS." SAYS CHANCELLOR
"NO BLANKS," SAYS CHANCELOR
"I know nothing of the receipt
signed by the men of the navy for $36
due for subsistence payable to the
University," Chancellor Frank Strong
said, "however, the University is doing
its best to clear the matter of
members of the navy and S. A. T. C. army, and that will probably come up in the final settlement.
"The University contracted with the government to feed and give the men sleeping quarters; all other business was between the government and the men direct," continued the Chancellor. "In the case of the navy I wrote to Government Chief Engagements and to see what could be done about pay and clothing, but the University had no control of military affairs."

NO SENTLEMENT THROUGH OFFICE "The final settlements have not been made with either the army or the navy," said Karl Klooz, manager of the University business office, "but we are practically finished with the
Nebraska Proves the Missouri Basketball Team is Not Unbeatable
History Favors Hope Kansas May Defeat Tigers at Columbia
The Kansas basketball team will attempt to repeat the feat of the Nebraska Cornhuskens and beat the Missouri Tigers on their own floor tonight in the first of a series of two games. The Jayhawks have always played as well against Missouri in Columbia as in Iowa, and there are two games to the Tigers here, the local quintet divided a hard-fought series in Columbia.
Nebraska proved last Friday and Saturday that the Tigers were not unbeatable, when they won a pair of games, from the Valley favorites. Now the Kansas Aggies are on top in the Valley race and the Tigers are occupying third place, and the Jayhawkers are eager to send them even farther down the ladder. Kansas is now occupying seventh place in the Valley race and must at least break even on the Eastern trip to climb in the rating. The present standing shows that the Kansas Aggies are first, Nebraska is second, Missouri is third, Grinnell is fourth, Washington is fifth, Ames is sixth and Kansas is seventh. Drake is in last place.
Grunnell, the new member of the Missouri Valley Conference, has showed class in basketball by breaking even with the Cornhuskers, and the tenn game has an outside chance to win the championship. Kansas will not play Grunnell this year in the game against the Huskies, have eight games yet to be played in the Valley, including two with the Kansas Aggies and two with the Nebraska Huskers here, besides the four on the present road trip.

Architectural Year Book Halts Publication Plans
"It is an open question whether or not the Architectural Year Book will be published in May as planned," said Prof. Goldwin Goldin, Tuesday.
The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce does not seem willing to support it, and it does not seem probable that a sufficient amount of outside advertising can be obtained to finance the publication according to Professor Goldsmith. If he is booked to bring additional students to the University who would otherwise go to other schools of architecture.
Jean F. J. Kelly Makes College Inspection Trip
Dean F. J. Kelley of the educational department, has just returned from a tour of inspection of five Kansas colleges. He visited Baker University, Ottawa College, College of Emporia, McPherson College and Kansas Wesleyan College for the purpose of determining whether these schools were keeping up their standard of work in the class in which they are classified.
Dean Kelly is a member of the committee of the North Central Association of colleges and Secondary Schools which inspects all the classified schools and colleges every year or two.
sour Owl Will Appear
On or About March 7
The board in charge of the editing and publishing of the Sour Owl is working hard and expects to have the publication out by March 7.
Because practically all the men of the University were in the S.A.T.C. last fall, the Owls did not undertake to edit the Sour Owl earlier in the term. An exceptionally good issue is expected for its first publication. The Sour Owl, is more in the form of a magazine than a news sheet, being similar in appearance to "Life." It contains twenty-four-page fulls of history and sarcasm, in the shape of poetry, and cartoons; the board of six members undertakes the management of the publication of the Sour Owl will hold a meeting next Wednesday. Anyone that has something that will be of particular interest to the magazine should see one of the Owls as soon as possible.
The Presbyterian University Sunday School will have a social evening of informal games and refreshments at Westminster Hall Friday evening. All members and their friends are invited.

Actions and policies of the University Senate have aroused student indignation with the result of its culmination today in a mass meeting and demonstrations of protest on the campus. Students are alive to the necessity of taking the initiative and starting movements themselves, not letting others do things for them.
LET THE FIGHT CONTINUE
Steadiness of action must be observed, however. Extreme action that would only arouse antagonism and not accomplish needed results must not be taken. What is necessary is a steady and visibly planned campaign for University control, instead of Senate control.
The fight must not cease with a few hasty demonstrations. It must be continued; it must be well thought out; it must embody fair plans.
As an outcome we can hope for greater unity and co-operation between the opposing factions of the University and a representative direction of affairs of the students.
K.U. Pan-Hellenic Organizations Object To Regulation By Senate
After a thorough discussion of the question which has been started by the University authorities concerning the regulation of fraternity and sorority parties and the auditing of their books, at the different meetings Monday night, every fraternity was asked to come forward, if fair were to be controlled by the Pan-Hellenic association and not by the University Senate.
The action was not taken because the students in the different organizations objected to being restricted in the amount of money their parties could cost, but they did object to the use of the new weapons when the Pan-Hellenic of both the men and women were organized for just such a purpose.
That there had been so few parties given by the women Greeks during the war times and that none of these had cost more than $1.50 was the sentiment of the sororites. The fraternities and sororites were the first organizations on the Hill to cut down on the number of parties and to linit the cost of the parties. This was done by the Pan-Hellenics, however, and was accepted by all the organizations.
"The Pan-Hellenics resent the action taken by some of the leaders in the senate," said one of the members of Pan-Hellenic this morning. "The Pan-Hellenic council has always regulated the affairs of the Greek or-
Kansas Woman Wins Position as Engineer In Government Work
Miss Mary Stanwaity Fills an Important Place at Washington
Washington
Miss Stanwaity is an assistant engineer of tests, and is connected with the bureau of standards. This line of work is a new department and is still in the experimental stage. Miss Stanwaity was sent by the government to the Carnegie Technical in Pittsburgh, for a special course to prepare her for her work with the department. She enjoys the title of engineer.
The salary in such a position is said to be much better than teachers receive and appointments are obtained through the civil service. As a preparation for this work Miss Starwalty taught the history, geography and metallography. While attending K.U. Miss Starwalty was a member of Sigma Kappa.
One of the first women to enter departmental service as an engineer, at Washington, is Miss Mary Stanway, a university of Kansas woman, who was graduated with the class of 1915, majoring in German.

organizations and we have never failed in executing this duty so far. To begin with we can't understand why the action if the Senate has been taken, especially the auditing of the fraternity budgets."
A meeting of the Women's Pan-Hellenic council was held yesterday afternoon at the Alpha Chi Omega house to arrive at a decision about the stand the council was to take on the question. All were unanimous in their opinion to oppose the Senate committee and audit of the books, because they thought it was a matter for the Pan-Hellenic council.
"I believe the students have the wrong impression of what the Senate is trying to do," said Chancellor Frank Strong this morning. "The action is not being taken because we are disatisfied with the fraternity and sorority activity during the war times. We are far from that. The organizations have stood by the University in every conservation movement. We are doing what we think best for the University and all connected with it. The plan of having fraternity and organization books audited by a Senate committee was ordered by the state board of administration some time ago. We are trying to obey their orders because we are held responsible for every thing at the University."

LAWS BURST INTO SONG
When the last flame smoldered out, an announcement was made by a law student, from the steps of Green Hall, that, "The rest of the Senate will be burned this afternoon at 4:30 o'clock." The meeting referred to is a mass in Fraser Hall on Friday. Senate activities in governing student affairs.
As the effigy of the faculty organization was in flames, all the law students gathered out in front of Green Hall, and sang to the tune of "We'll Drink to Dear Old Kansas," the following words:
We are, we are, we are, we are,
we are, we live, we are, we are,
we are, the K. U. laws.
"We are, we are, we are, we are,
we are, the K. U. laws."
It's all because of him.
Our dear old Uncle Jim,
That we are the K. U. laws."
Then followed their school yell,
Jayhawk, Jayhawk, Jayhawk, we—
Rock Chalk, Jayhawk, L. L. B."
The demonstration against the Senate at Green Hall today was said to be expression of the feeling of students of the School of Law toward the faculty organization. Yellos of "Bol-shewiki," armbands and hatbands and black hats were present in evidence. A placard bearing the words "An Expression of Student Feeling." was hung out in front of the building.

Phi Delta Theta House Is Damaged By Fire; Defective Flue is Cause
Members Estimate Loss by Fire and Water at $4,000—Is Fully insured
Fire caused by a defective flue, started in the Phi Delta Theta house this morning at 11 o'clock.
Before the Lawrence Fire Department arrived and extinguished the flames, the roof was burned and a greater part of the third floor rooms. The greatest damage was done to the room of Merril Rutter and Robert Burns. According to information from Herbert Mee, it will probably cost $4,000 to remodel the house, as an entire new roof must be put on and all the walls plastered. Insurance will easily cover the loss.
Many students responded to the fire call, and all the furniture was moved.
Invitations were extended by the Sigma Chi, Beta Theta Pi, Phi Alpha Delta, and Phi Beta Pi to the homeless Phi Delitas.
most of the furniture from the Phi Delta house is being stored in the assement of the Beta house.

R O T C ADOPTED
In recommending that a Reserve Officers' Training Corps be established at the University, the Senate took action agreeable with student sentiment at the first of this quarter. The lapse of time between then and now has probably changed the minds of many men, and the corps may not be supported by the requisite number of men. Action that the Peace Conference might take against preparedness or for the League of Peace probably would annul the value of the R.O.T.C. Hence it is that when the corps is finally recommended, student opinion is adverse to it, while at the beginning of its discussion it was wanted.
SELF-STYLED BOLSHEVIK
Agitation has begun in New York to rename Greeley Square Ypres Square. If this is done, it will be well to hold classes to instruct policemen and residents in the seven preferred pronunciations.
There has appeared on the campus a group of self-styled Bolshevik. They are the members of that school to which the balance of the University has learned to look for originality of ideas. The purpose of calling themselves Bolshevik is evidently to show their distaste for the existing order of things.
While their purpose, if carried out sensibly, may be laudable, it is unfortunate that their actions should class them as extremists, and that they should choose as their badge the red, popularly symbolized as being opposed to the principles and ideals of the United States.
AN ENCHANTING RHYTHM
Gum-chewing is perhaps the most difficult of the social graces a young lady has to acquire. It is an accomplishment, which, like the pipe organ and the formal reception manner, requires years of patient practice.
The beginner who has chewed only occasionally since her hair-ribbon days finds it a difficult art to master. There is only one way for her to become an expert—practice. If you wish to be perfect in the line, practice.
Buy a box of gum at reduced rates, and be ready to work at all hours. Each morning, on rising, take three sticks of gum and proceed with a slow, steady chew. When you go to breakfast, place the gum on the rim of your coffee sauce. It will wash off china, but it is harder to remove gum from the chair or the clothtable.
On the way up the Hill, chew it
march time. This will develop your speed and accuracy. During class, cultivate a languid, silent movement, in order not to interfere with the lecture. Down-town at the picture show in the afternoon you can work up your speed again. That is a good place to practice "popping" your gum. If you can pop it so loudly that the man across the aisle stares at you while the orchestra is playing its best, you have achieved real fame as an artist.
The most important thing, however, is not noise, but constancy. Never remove your gum at night; Wad it up in your right cheek and sleep on it, so that you can practice conveniently if you happen to wake before the alarm goes off.
Campus Opinion
All communications to this column must be written by the scribe as evidence of his superior. The name of the scribe should specify. Communications are welcome.
To the Kansan:
During the past few weeks especially, there has been a wholesale discussion among the student body, upon the status of the social and political affairs of the school, those affairs which are the life of the school and the medium through which much of its influence is transmitted to the various people and concerns which have its interests at heart. This discussion has given rise to many different ideas but they may all be summed up in a single opinion which seems to prevail throughout the whole. That opinion simply in this, the students of the University maintained that it is the right to have moral life of their social and political activities connected with, subject to the control of the Senate only in regard to those matters which affect the schedule of the University.
For the Senate to step in and assume absolute control of the life of the school means ultimately the complete paralysis of its activities. To throttle down the well meant efforts of those who make up the rank and file of the school does not have a tendency to stimulate; it serves to choke out the few remaining vestiges of life that remain. The result is sure. Within a short time that part of the life of the University which brand it as a leader and which puts the stamp of popularity upon it will die. By this it is not meant to infer that the Senate is unfit for the task which it is attempting to assume. Student life is something which belongs to the students themselves, something in which they take the greatest pride, and in the development of which they rejoice. Any control thereof does not regulate; it stifles that life.
The writer if this article spent his active days on the Hill in the days these affairs were in the hands of the students; when there were formal parties put on by men who were elected for the purpose of giving us a good entertainment; true, they charged us for it but we got what wanted; and we got what needed. We paid a good price for such than to pay a dollar and a half for what we don't want. In those days we danced until one o'clock and the health and scholastic standing of the students were just as good then as now. The money which was expended in putting on the University parties was spent in a manner that suited the desire of those who had it. The men who put on the parties and made some money were entitled to receive the salary can it make to the Senate how the student spends his money? Is it not better to spend it in that way than to blow it in Kansas City?"
When all is said and done these things all add to the spirit of the school. Take them way and see what happens to the brand of pep that made old K. U. in days gone by the Yale of the West; take them away and see what happens to the bubbling life which has made K. U. the leader among the schools of the Missouri Valley. We are asking for what ours, what we have proved to be ours and absolutely able to handle. This is no idle statement but a body bears testimony to that fact. The Senate may rest assured that the whole student body, including every organization on the Hill, will unite in the defense of their liberty and initiative in those matters, which to them, mean the democracy of the school.

As To Your Future
Perhaps these former K. U Students can help you.
Fanny Alberta Cady, B.S., 1918, now student nurse at the Nurses' Home, City Hospital, Blackwell's Isle of Wight, City, offers the following hints:
ARE YOU INTERESTED IN NURSING?
Special training for nursing may be received in the New York City Hospital. Board, lodging, and laundry are free. There is no charge for tuition. Ten dollars a month is allowance and the nurse must furnish for books and incidentals. During probation period there is no allowance and the nurse must furnish her probation uniforms. After acceptance in the school, uniforms are furnished by the hospital.
, Concerning the college courses as a preparation for this work, she says, "Nursing presents such a wide and varied field that it is said by our instructors that everything you ever learned will be of use." The following courses are of especial help: physiology and anatomy chemistry (elementary and physiological), bacteriology, homeopathy, (very distinctly) diatomology, criminology, psychology (including abnormal), economics and history, hygiene and sanitation, eugenics, public speaking, English, languages", and ethics.
She also advises the adoption, in the University curriculum, of such courses as history of nursing, materia medica, medical lectures, nursing ethics, bandaging, and demonstrations in practical nursing.
The salaries are better than the salaries paid teachers,
The essential qualifications are:
Physical good health and the knowledge of maintaining it by right living.
Regular life during training usually improves the physical condition.
Mental qualifications are a liberal education, judgment, memory skills.
Mental qualifications are sympathy, dignity, courtesy, obedience, patience and above all, the quality of "stick-to-itness."
The number of openings is increasing, especially in public health work and in school and industrial nursing; the need for some hospital training school.
To the girl who likes science or is interested in social work, nursing offers an excellent field for work, study and experience. Social workers, with nursing experience are valuable and many opportunities are open to registered nurses.
Jessie Len Messick, A.B., '18, Hill City, makes the following suggestions to students who desire to enter the profession of nursing:
The work may be entered by government appointment or through hospital work.
As a preparation for nursing
the following courses are suggested; phys-
ical education; social interaction; and
The remuneration compared with the teacher's salary is about the same, especially after the course is completed.
Essential qualifications for the work are ability to adapt oneself to other personalities, optimism, efficiency and the ability to obey orders.

Membership in R.O.T.C. Is to Be Voluntary Chancellor Announces
---
Course Will Extend Through Four Years of College and Include Summer Camp
Want Coast Artillery Unit
Service in Army Will Count as Preparatory Training—Ex-Soldiers May Instruct
Membership in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps to be established in the University of Kansas is to be purely voluntary, according to a statement of Chancellor Strong this morning.
During the freshman and sophomore years, students have the option of taking the three hours of drill both semesters each year in place of the required gymnasium work. Students in the junior and senior classes, as well as graduate students, and members of the faculty may elect to complete the course and be commissioned into the reserve.
WILL EARN COLLEGE CREDIT
The course of training leading to a commission in the reserve will consist of two hours per week spent in drill and theoretical work, for which the student will receive college credit towards a degree. For one month in the summer the candidate for a commission will attend a reserve officers' training camp at one of the present cantonments, specializing in the theory and practice of the branch which he most prefers.
A reserve officer of not lower rank than a major, and possibly a lieutenant-colonel will be assigned by the War Department as commander, and this officer will have charge over all law and the theory of war. It is probable that some of the instructors of the University will be assigned to the theoretical work.
UNIFORMS WILL BE FURNISHED
Student officers will probably be picked from the upperclassmen already in school who hold commissions in the Reserve Corps. Several are here in the present session, and many others will return at the beginning of the next quarter.
One uniform each school year will be furnished by the government to all members of the R. O. T. C., and they may wear other regulation uniform as they prefer. Uniforms may be worn only for the three hours of drill each week, or they may be worn during the time, and then they may be worn anywhere, provided the proper insignia is worn with it.
In the last two years of the course, commutation on substance will be furnished by the government, to the extent of forty cents per day, or twelve dollars per month. Which of the candidates are suitable to the court summer, they will be under army regulations and receive private pay.
MAY HAVE COAST ARTILLERY
Students who are now upperclassmen, and who have seen service of any importance in the army will probably be allowed to count the service in the army as preparatory to the first two years of drill and allowed to go on with the course.
Efforts are now being made to establish a coast artillery unit here. The authorities have in view the obtaining of two twelve-inch howitzers for purposes of instruction. It is almost certain that either an artillery or signal corps unit will be established, as it is expected there will be requests for other branches of the service than infantry, and there will be upperclassmen in the course who will be admirably suited to handle the advanced theoretical work of coast or field artillery.
Folly Try-Outs Will Start Thursday in Gymnasium
Tryouts for the Annual Follies given by the Woman's Athletic Association of the University will be held Thursday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in Robinson Gymnasium. They will be directed by Mabel McNaughton, with Helen Peffer as assistant director. "Any woman in the University may try out" said McNaughton. Today, she has any special stance or feature that she can give, we would like for her to see us before the tryouts. We have sent to New York for the music and will begin practice as soon as it comes."
The date when the Follies will be given will be announced later.

Three Loving Cups Up—Men's Women's and District Team Winners
More Than Fifty High Teams Expected to Enter Tournament This Year
Receipts Go To the Teams
The high schools of the state will meet in Robinson gymnasium to set the dispute for the state high school basketball championship, March 28-29, according to an announcement made by Manager W. O.

As usual, three championships will be settled in the tournament. The winner of the title in the race between the girls' teams will be awarded a large silver loving cup, while the winner in the boys' state championship contest will also be given a large loving cup. In the division known as the State High School Athletic Association, the winners of the championships in each of the eight districts in the state will meet and fight it out for the title, and the large loving cup that goes with it. Chanute high school won the girls' championship last year after a close game with Rosedale, and Arkansas City nosed out Newton for the boys' title.
Eighty per cent of the receipts at the tournament will be divided between the teams, according to the distance they have to travel and each team will be allowed eight men. Entries must be in by March 20.

"Red stands for revolution," said George Strong, who will probably lead the meeting this afternoon, "and it signifies an uprising against the Senate rulings on the University lately, and not only in the matter of parties. See our effigy? One foot white and one foot black, get the idea?" Unbalanced.
On the bulletin board in the vestibule of Green Hall is the following notice;
"We, the understigned members of the senior law class swear to punish any member of that class, who does not appear Wednesday morning with a red symbol of some sort, to the fullest extent possible with the use of paddles, and disquallify him from wearing the senior law insignia."

The notice is signed by Sleepy Bill,

Ritt, John, Dancy, M. B Atlas, and

CRYSTALLIZING, NOT LEADING
"We are not attempting to lead public opinion," said William Wertz, president of the senior laws. "We are simply trying to crystallize what we believe is the sentiment of the students of the University, against the usurpation of their powers by the University Senate."
"Student opinion seems to be of one idea," said an onlooking faculty member during the fire, "and I guess that is enough said."
Faculty Basketball Teams Too Good for Intra-Murals

With regard to the $36 subsistence money for the navy, Mr. Klooz said, "I know nothing of the receipt the navy men signed to the University for subsistence and it was not done through the University business department."
Miss Moodie, private secretary to the Chancellor, said: "As far as I know the following amount of subsistence money will be paid to the army and the amount due to the navy will be determined later. The University will pay the men for board from October 1 to 7, 1918, at the rate of seventy-five cents a day, making a total of $4.50 for food. They will also receive twenty-five cents a day for room from October 1 to the time that
the companies moved into the barracks."
"On October 5, 1918," continued Miss Motif, "1220 men had been inducted into the S. A. T. C. and by the mess sergeant's report a total of 1243 men a day were being fed. More than 753 men were fed in the hospital at one time during the influenza epidemic."

Interviews of Faculty On Student Problems Show Varied Opinions
When Interviewed the Faculty Freely Expresses Opinion Concerning Movement
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS THURSDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 20, 1919.
Favor Student Activity
Co-operation Between Student Body and Senate Expresses Faculty Opinion
"But there is this to be said. In running a big machine, there has to be some permanent organization to steady affairs. Big engines don't run themselves. To keep them running smoothly, there is need of supervision. And there is also the danger of running too tightly as well as running too loosely. When a machine is run too tightly, the parts of the machine are going to fly to pieces, and that is exactly what has happened now and why the students have put out the red flag of danger.
"I have always been very much interested in student activities, now as well as in years gone by when I was in college myself," said Prof. A. J. Boynton, chairman of the department of economics, "and let me go on record as saying, 'If ever I lose the memory of the student's point of view, will some kind student, some friend, come and lead me off."
Faculty opinion apparently approves the student movement for broader student governing powers, according to interviews with various faculty members deeply interested in student affairs. Asked an expression on the student mass meeting Wednesday that protested against the activities and attitude of the University Senate as usurping student governing rights and as being lacking largely in comprehensive team work, most of these members said they favored wider activity among students in governing themselves. Among the interviews were the following:
"But I am here to say that students are the most reasonable people I have ever met, and you don't have to trample on them to make them behave."
Prof. M. C Elmer expressed his opinion on student protest meeting Wednesday by saying:
"I am glad to see the school rise up and show its old spirit. It does not make any difference to me how late or how often students dance. I believe it is the student's own business in regard to the regulation of his dancing. Of course, too, much dancing during the week might hinder the grades of the student, but that is up to him."
George O. Foster, registrar, said
Professor Elmer said he did not agree wholly with all the Senate advocated, but he did agree that the Senate should eliminate the student graft that has been in evidence on the Hill.
George O. Foster, registrar, said; "I believe the Senate always has been as fair as possible. It now has a student interest committee, the purpose of which is to hear the demands of the Senate on how to prepare before the Senate. As the Senate is provided for by the constitution of the University it would be necessary to change the constitution to get the change the students desire."
"I have always been in favor of self government by the students," said Dr. F. J. Kelly, dean of the School of Education. "I believe the position of the Senate should be one of advisory powers with regard to student affairs. The Senate should educate the student and not try to control the affairs itself and dictate to the students what they shall do."
"I am in favor of the plan that will secure the best co-operation and good feeling between the faculty and students," and Dean Olin Templin, dean of the college.
Prof. Louis E. Sisson, secretary of the Senate, said;
"I should favor a combined committee of student and faculty members who would make recommendations to the University authorities. I believe this would be the most successful plan."
"I am in favor of a committee made up of members of the faculty and members of the two student councils for the purpose of discussing student affairs," said Dr. Alberta Corbin, ad-

Engineers Attack Laws In Snow Ball Battle
After chasing a group of law students into Green Hall this morning, civil, electrical, and mechanical engineers challenged the laws to a snow ball fight on the Campus Martius in front of Fraser Hall. The challenge was sent to Green Hall at noon. The laws professed a willingness for battle, providing the opportunity to the fray and not try to overwhelm the Blackstons by sheer preponderance in numbers.
In the snow ball battle this morning a group of engineers on their way to a class in Blake Hall found the inevitable law bunch on Uncle Jimmy's front step, loafing on the premises, it is alleged. The engineers promptly seized the advantage and the team was vacated singularly and collectively. The first reply of the laws to the engineers' charge recited that the engineers were using high school tactics, and playing kid school games.
The laws, who have been leading the fight for student control of student enterprises, also answered that they were asking for their rights from the Senate and did not care to engage in a free-for-all that might go against them in the bigger things they were asking for.
During the snow ball fight, one of the Laws apparently lost his tempeer and engaged two or three of the Engineers in a little "listic combat." it is said no one was much worse off physically.
Debates Open to All Speakers
Students are invited to attend and take part in the debate to be held tonight at 7:30 o'clock in the lecture room of Marvin Hall by the Civil Engineers' society.

Missouri Five Defeats University of Kansas In First Game, 34-20
Fast Floor Work of Tigers and Good Shooting of Ruby Feature Game
Kansas Lacks Team Work
Second Game of Trip Will Be Played at Columbia Thursday Night
Missouri won the first game of the series at Columbia last night from the Kansas Jayhawkers by a score of 14 to 20. This makes the third successive victory of the Tigers over Columbia Hamilton's five. Although Kan scored first on a free throw by Bennett and held the lead part of the first half, the Tigers soon recovered the stride and easily won the game. The score at the end of the first half was 16 to 13.
Fast floor work by the Missouri quintet and excellent goal shooting on the part of Captain Craig Ruby increased the Tiger lead in the early part of the second half. Ruby scored a total of seven field goals and Vogt at center contributed three goals to the total. Scott, forward, was off form in free throwing and tossed only four goals in nine chances.
For Kansas, Bunn scored twice from the field and Captain Matthews added two field goals and three free throws. Bennett played right forward in place of Miller and contributed one field goal and seven free throws.

Lieut. Normile returned yesterday from a motor trip to Leavenworth whither he and five of his men had taken the three trucks as they are no longer needed here. Lieutenant Normile advises no one to take this trip until the roads clear up, for near Tonganoxie one of the trucks got stuck in the mud and it was only after many hours of hard labor that the dauntless quartermaster and his assistants rescued the stranded car.
"We had a lovely ride considering the speed, which averaged about three miles an hour, for the trip," said Lieutenant Normile.

Van and His Coon Dog Miss a Possum Dinner
Two fat possums were sent to the department of zoology three weeks ago for the use of experiment. The two animals escaped and for some time Daddy Van and his coon dogs have tried in vain to catch them.
This morning Daddy Van entered the journalism room and in a disgruntled tone said, "All honors have got to go to those new plumbers who have been working in the basement of Snow Hall for catching that possum, me and my coon dog have been trying to get for three weeks."
"We didn't get him, but we're goin' to bet his better half. We are on the 'unt right now for him."
"Prof. W. J. Baumgartner had a uneral and pickled the other one o those zoologists could experiment on im and here me and my coon dog didn't get any possum dinner at all," added.
Engineers Criticize the Student Mass Meeting
Say Some Laws Had Program Prearranged for Political
Reasons
At a mass meeting of the students of the School of Engineering this morning, it seemed to be aparent that they as a body criticised the School of Engineering Law were back of the student mass meeting for political reasons.
"The mode of procedure in evidence at yesterday's meeting was not such as to bring out representative opinion," reads a part of the petition passed by the Laws. "But was designed apparently to, put over a certain pre-arranged plan. While the results of this particular meeting apparently met the approval of all in it, that characterization was that which characterizes ward politics, the entire program being of a cut and dried nature, and having evidence of having been arranged in a corner beforehand."
Sachems Offer Plan For Student Members On Senate Committee
Asks for Six Senate and Six Student Members—Four Men and Two Women
A reorganization of the student interest committee which provides for student representation through student membership in the committee and to strengthen the Dachem Society at its meeting held Wednesday night. The resolution reads:
"Be Ie Resolved, "That the Schem Society is in favor of a plan for a joint Student Interest Committee composed of six Senate members chosen by the Senate, and six students; four men students to be from the Men's Student Council and two from the Women's Student Council and another society. This committee to have final authority on all matters pertaining to student interests.
The representatives from the Men's Student Council to be those who poll the highest vote in their respective schools; two from the college, one from the School of Engineering and one from the School of Law."
"It is the plan of the society," said a Sachem, "not to force the details of the plan, but the general idea itself."
Various plans were considered at the meeting, and this one was decided.
Nothing New in Wet Snow
Says Weatherman Kester
"This wet snow is not unusual for February or March," said Prof. F. E. Kester, the weather man at Blake Hall, Thursday morning.
"Snows as a rule come during a dry season, but there is nothing different or mysterious about this little snow. It is not any wetter than the snow of last week. I know, because I had to shovel walks."

Indignant Students Demand Voice In Social Government
Plain Tales From the Hill
THE DAM-P, DAM-P SNOW
"Snow, snow, go away.
Come again some other day,
My new pumps you put to rout.
My old shoes are all worn out.
Must I wear the leaky things?
Snow, oh, snow, take up you wings."
The Phi Delt Mess may or may not be a success Friday night but Fred McEwen says that its a sure thing that they are having a grand mess down at 1409 Tennessee now, trying to live in a house that had the roof burned to nothing so that this beautiful snow that all the aesthetics are raving on can come in without any opposition at all.
The report that all the time the house was burning yesterday, the Grafamola played "Its a Hot Time In The Old Town tonight," makes a very easy claim. He means that today they put on the record "Button Up Your Collar, Mary Ann."
Did you notice the pretty snow man just east of the Journalism Building? It is a perfect likeness of one of the professors on this hill. We would suggest that if the snow lasts longer that a prize be offered for the best snow man, and that all Fine Arts students be compelled to enter. When students are building snow figures, they must be careful, chief, and it is very necessary at this time to find some winter sport for our 'ittle cut-ups.'

Jeff says that as far as he is expected, he would just as soon keep on snoring, but that his dear brothers do not seem to appreciate the melodious tones, and they have taken the underhand method of slipping quinine capsules in his mouth every time he opens it after eleven o'clock at night.
Talk about waking up with a bad taste in your mouth! And Jeff says that he doesn't even have pleasant memories to make up for it.

Disciplinary Powers Alone Were Turned to Senate by Student Council
Petition for Convocations
Regular Hour Each Week in Morning is Desired to Serve All Students
As the climax of the revolutionary spirit against the University Senate which apparently has been growing among the students, resolutions were unanimously adopted at the so-called "indignation" meeting in Fraser Hall Wednesday, announcing the opposition of the student body against entire control of student affairs by the Senate. The resolution demanded the right of the students to have a voice in their own government.
In addition, a resolution for University convocations was also unanimously adopted. Fraser Hall Chapel was packed with opponents of the present system of control and the culture of women was unusually 'arge'.
SENATE RULED BY MINORITY
The attitude of practically every student speaker was belligerant, as many expected as a result of the hanging and burning of the Senate in effigy, Wednesday, in front of Grsen Hall. Most of the speakers said that a majority of the Senate must be suppressed to control, but they allowed themselves to be overruled by a minority that considered students irresponsible.
"This meeting has been called by students who believe the University Senate is usurping student rights," said George Strong, who acted as chairman. "The question we must decide is whether we want student government with its responsibility. If we do, we must quit being boys and girls. We must become men and women. Although a majority of the Senate believes in student control those members are controlled by a Prussian type. That group believes long will they be making us go to bed at 10 c'clock and wear a certain uniform on the Hill. They will regulate our parties, and we will have a powerful Prussian autocracy."
SCHOOL ENTHUSIASM REVIVES
HUNKS, MAYES
Lieut. "Hank" Shinn, 119, was the first speaker.
"After returning from 2-years' absence," said Shim, "my first impression was that student spirit was absolutely dead. Now I see I was wrong. This is the greatest outburst of the Senate." I remember the Senate is attempting to reach the same result as the students and we must play our part
(Continued on page 4)
Following is the official statement of the purpose of the students' "indignation meeting," and the text of the resolutions adopted unanimously by the mass meeting:
THE WORK OF THE MASS MEETING
PURPOSE
To secure the Student Opinion in regard to self government at the University of Kansas.
BY WHOM CALLED
A body of students realizing that the University Senate is constantly becoming more dictatorial and that the ideals of self government in America are disregarded in this Institution—this body has taken the initiative and called this meeting.
RESOLUTION
BE IT RESOLVED: That the Student Body of the University of Kansas do hereby announce their opposition to 'entire control of student affairs by the University Senate.
We are citizens of a democracy whose ideal is government by public opinion. We are citizens of a state which is taxing its citizens to provide for a University which will educate its people in democratic ideals.
If we are not capable of self government, then we are unfit to be citizens of this state, and this Institution is violating the purpose for which it was founded in not allowing us this right.
The success of democratic government depends upon education, but not of the kind which Germany fostered and which the Senate of Kansas University seems to desire.
BE IT FUNFIT RESOLVE: That the students demand to have the same rights to select those who govern them that our fathers have; that the students be given a voice in their own government; that Kansas University foster and encourage democratic ideals.
THEREFORE: We, the student body of the University of Kansas do hereby place ourselves on record as being in perfect accordance with this resolution and demand that our wishes be respected, with the understanding that if our wishes be disregarded, as has been customary in the past.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1919
Nothing but harmony, honesty, in dustry, and frugality are necessary to make us a great and happy nation.—George Washington.
It was a sane meeting.
A SANE MEETING
Students did not bombast the University Senate in the mass meeting Wednesday. They did not forget their chief end to gain was a better scheme of governing student affairs. The meeting was not one of indignation only, but one that showed the co-operative spirit of the student body.
Co-operation with the Senate to bring about some satisfactory plan of joint government was initiated by voting to have a student committee appointed to confer with the Senate in this regard.
Not every wrong was attributed to the Senate, but the grievances against that organization were set forth, and means to overcome them were discussed. The general opinion was that unfair methods of directing student activities could be bettered by a joint committee from the 'Senate and the students, each having the same number of members on the committee.
What was started with conservative, thoughtful action must be kept up in the same manner. No doubt several different plans of government will be suggested, and from these must be formulated one that best represents the interests they are made for and that specifies the most fair and equitable direction of student affairs.
Don't be utterly discouraged because you are told to take a lesson over and over again. Nature has been staging warm and wintry days for years and yet she doesn't complain.
CONVOCATIONS WANTED
The popular insistence for reguli convocations was demonstrated by the resolution passed by the students in the mass meeting Wednesday. With no objection whatever, the meeting declared itself in favor of convocations and adopted a resolution recommending their re-establishment. The plan of setting aside a definite hour for convocations and not having class work that hour was endorsed.
Student government is no more an impossibility now than it was four years ago. What is needed now since the resolution has been passed is to put the saddle and bridle on the horse and ride it to market without stopping on the way to use a whip.
Campus Opinion
BOLSHEVIK1 METHODS WRONG
Editor Danny Kansas:
Revolutions have come and gone. The Great War has produced a host of them throughout the world. And now, lo and behold, new revolution has sprung in Russia? No, In Germany. No. This time it is in the University of Kansas. Yes, the lawyers have rebelled and have declared war on the Senate. Their great liberty-loving hearts can no longer tolerate the yoke of tyranny. Now they are on the warpath, and ready to lay down their canes, if need be, on the altar of liberty.
I am a law student. I have, at times, felt keen resentment toward the University Senate for some of the seemingly unnecessary encroachments on Student Body rights. I would welcome a move on its part to give us what I believe is inherently ours. I want to say, however, that the demonstrations of a majority of the law students this morning (Wednesday), was, to say the least, kiddish. I believe we are a bunch of spoiled school kids, and acted the part splendidly this morning.
The students want self-government. They should have it. How can my fellow lawyers hope to get it? By foolish and nonsensical methods? By cheering for the Bolshevik? Why, of the countless standards they could have adopted, did they choose this outlawed standard? On the face of it I can see nothing but a thoughtless, unconsidered scheme for a little fun on the part of a few; and the rest—like a flock of sheep, babblingly followed.
The only outcome, if not otherwise disastrous, will be a great joke on the Laws. O, boy, how the squeaking collegians will squawk at our failure. But that is not the point. Why should the School of Law be instrumental in spoiling a good chance for the students of K. U. to get their rights? Why should the School of Law be the cause for the Senate to say that a group of asses can't govern themselves?
Every law student would be proud he is one if his school, by its activity and pep, got self-government. I, as one of them, can tell them they will never get what they are clamoring for, by today's demonstrations, or by similar hurrrah-for-the-bolshevik-to-tell-with-the-Senate activities. This morning's outburst of zealous patriotism was nothing more than a cheap vaudeville stunt, unworthy of university students, and which the cheapest of vaudeville houses would turn down as too poor a show.
A. J. GRANOFF.
No, my follow law students, you will never get us any rights by cheerleading.
Other Opinions
THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY
"The American University is a coffee mill; young men and women are dumped into it, some one spins the handle and out they will come mixed together, individuality gone; all just the same; little grains the same size, the same color, the same smell."
Today those who prefer charges against college training have to a great extent abandoned the arguments which so long provided the favorite ground for objection. This remark sounds a note of extortion which has been used by criminals in the value of a higher education and find in this indictment a popular expression of their disapproval.
This quotation from a modern author of some reputation represents a modified, if not an entirely new attitude, toward the American College.
Granted that the American university is a mill—into that mill is dumped in heterogeneous confusion thousands of young men (and women), differing as to race, creeds, home influences, social position, habits of life, habits of thought, and inherited advantages. They undergo a milling process which knocks off the rough corners of provincialism and grinds to small bits many long-cherished rights and privileges. They no longer find themselves the centers of little solar systems but discover that they in company with multitudes of others revolve around great interests upon which the attention of all is focused.
"Individuality gone?" Well, per hapus, but what a tremendous social gain! "Little grains the same size the same color, the same smell!" But what a chaos of thought and ac son would result from a differentia
tion based upon individual fancy and caprice. Put students together for four years under the same influence of college traditions and it would be strange indeed if a certain uniformity of attitude and habit of thought did not develop. That is as true of the community or the nation as it is of the college and as a mere observation is valueless.
One thing alone concerns us: At the attitude which the college group develops magnanimous or petty? It is habits of thought wholesome and healthy or is it malicious and vengeful? Is its conduct fair and above board or is it deceitful? If the ideal are high nothing could be better than the collegiate body be permeated with so desirable a leaven. If the idea are objectionable, then to lament the fact that they are emulated. Father strive for their health and improvement and the very tendency which it is claimie makes for monotonous sameness will lift the American collegian to a higher plane of living and thinking.—The Colgate Maroon.
LIGHT ON PLANTS
The attention of botanists has lately been recalled to experiments made at Juvisy, near Paris, by M. Flammarion on the effects of exposing the seedlings of sensitive plants to lights of different colors. Having placed four pairs of mimosa seedlings in four separate pots in a hothouse, he covered one pair with a bell of blue glass, another with a bell of green glass, a third with a bell of red glass, while the fourth was exposed to ordinary white light. At the end of two months the plants subjected to blue light were only one inch high, having hardly grown at all. Those exposed to white light were four inches high, those that had grown in green light were five inches high, while those whose light had been red were no less than sixteen inches high. Experiments with other kinds of plants gave various results, but in every instance blue light impeded growth and development.—New York Sun.
Mental Lapses
THE REASON WHY
"Pa, why do they say in the market reports that wheat is nervous?" "I guess, Son, it is because it expects to be thrashed." American.
THE TRUTH
As a steamer was leaving the harbor of Athens a well-dressed young passenger approached the captain, and pointing to the distant hills, inquired: "What is that white stuff on the hills, captain?"
"That is snow," replied the captain. "Well," remarked the lady, "I thought so myself, but a gentleman had told me it was Greece."—American.
“in other words,” butted in the smart student, “the more one sits, the less one can stand.”
"Sedentary work," said the college lecturer, "tends to lesssen the endurance."
A PLAIN TRUTH
"Exactly," retorted the lecturer, "and if one lies a great deal, one's standing is lost completely."—American.

American Soldier: What was the reason?
"My boy," he said, "why are you not in the army?"
RUBBING IT IN
The boy smiled. "To be frank with you sir," he said, "I don't like it. There's all this business of sleeping in the mud, and uncooked food, and rain all the time—blamed unfortable, you know."
Yes, sound as a drum. Just twenty-two, no dependents." The young man was still cheerful. The inevitable group gathered about them.
"Uncomfortable." The white vest- front heaved indignantly. "Are you not of age, in good health and physically fit?"
"Disgusting! Have you no patriotism—no love of country? What is your reason for not being in the Army? Confess, coward!"
"I can't be" said the cheerful youth. "I'm in the Navy. Eighteen hours' leave and special permission to wear 'cits'"—American.

BUTTON BALEY in the Kansas Teacher
BERTON BRALEY in the Kansas Teacher THE HUN IDEA IN A CAKE
Fancy a cake fifty-four feet high, twenty-four feet broad and three feet thick, will you? Thirty-six bushels of flour, one ton of butter, 5,000 eggs and 200 gallons of milk were required to make it. And it took a whole ton of yeast to "raise" it.
That's the dessert Frederick William I of Prussia gave to his 30,000 soldiers 180 years ago. Imagine finishing a more than ordinary heavy meal and looking up to see an immense vehicle drawn by eight horses bringing in a dessert like that.

"A maker of Dreams," a Pierrot play is, according to Miss Spinney, "nothing more than a whimsical bable, full of poetry, imagery, and great fun." It was written by Oliphant Down, who was killed during the war.
The comedy, "Rosalind," by J. W. Barrie, is a story of a star who played in Shakespeare's "Rosalind" and was one of the greatest actors ever been in love with a stage star.

Senate and Student Representatives Meet To Discuss Party Prices
Fraternities Think They Should Govern the Price of Own Parties
At the joint conference yesterday of the auditing committee of the student interests committee of the Senate, representatives of the two Pan-Hellenic organizations, and representatives of all social organizations met to discuss the subject of the price charged for dances given by social organizations.
attributions.
"No agreement was reached," Dean Patterson, chairman of the meeting said today, "as the representatives brought no information with them. Another meeting will be called for the purpose of ascertaining what the Pan-Hellenic organizations are willing to do in the way of regulating their expenses at dances.
"Representatives seemed to be of the opinion that the fraternities and sororities alone should decide the cost of dances," he went on to say, "Later it was pointed out that the Senate had already regulated the price of dances and that the desire of the conference was to secure the co-operation of the social organizations and later to the Pan-Hellenic organizations regulate these matters themselves. The representatives of the student societies promised to present this view to their chapters."
"The conference practically agreed that there was a distinction between the subscription dances to which tickets are sold and those given by social organizations which are purely invitational affairs. A line will be drawn on this distinction about the cost of the dances. When this was made clear the representatives were of the opinion that an agreement could be reached at the next meeting. They will bring data to this meeting showing the number attending these dances and the cost," said Dean Patterson.
School of Engineering Enrollment is Growing
Returning Students from Mili tary Service Puts School On Pre-War Basis
The present enrollment of the School of Engineering is 325, according to records in the dean's office. This indicates that enrollment in the school is growing steadily as former students return from military service and that the attendance will probably be back on a pre-war basis in another year. The enrollment of the spring term, 1917, just before the United States entered the war, was 413. Of this number 58 withdrew before the end of the semester. Enrollment for the spring term, 1918, was 250. The enrollment in the fall of 1918 was 955,
including 911 in the S.A.T.C. This number decreased, however, until only 480 were attending at the end of the quarter when the S.A.T.C. as demobilized.
The largest enrollment in a normal year ever recorded in the School of Engineering was in 1908, when a total of 481 were taking work in the various departments.

Junior Women Defeat Faculty in Fast Game Of Basket Ball, 12-13
Coach Hazel Pratt Scores Hal Her Team's Points—Opponents Hit Baskets
The junior woman's basketball team defeated the faculty team by a 13 to 12 score in a fast game in Robinson Gymnasium Wednesday evening. The faculty team was not allowed to enter the intra-mural tournament because they had had too much practice together, according to the rule governing the intra-mural contest. They expect to challenge the cup winner in the intra-mural games and will no doubt put up a good fight.
The junior women, who won the cup this year, played up to their standard in the first half of the game, but in the last half the faculty guards held them to two old goals. The short fast, passes of the juniors, together with their ability to hit the basket, characterized their play.
Hazel Pratt, coach of woman's athletics, scored half of the twelve points for her team. Ruth Endacott, an jumping center for the faculty, coveted the field well and tasted two pretty baskets from far back in the field.

"Uncle Jimmy" is Speaker For Freshman Smoker
First Year Men Will Get Ac quainted at Eagles Hall Tonight
The freshman smoker will be held tonight at Eagles Hall. The entertainment will start at 8:15 o'clock, with some piano selections. After all the men have gathered, the program in general will begin. Two excellent speakers have been secured for the evening, Prof. H. A. Rice of the engineering school, and Uncle Jimmy Green, dean of the law school. Professor has a reputation for being a very entertaining speaker, and no one would ever be disappointed in Uncle Jimmy. It might be of interest to the freshmen men to learn that the subject of Uncle Jimmy's speech for tonight will be "Beware of the Freshmen Girls."
Two boxing matches will be staged to add to entertainment of the evening. The chief reason for holding the smoker, however, is to get the men together that they may become better acquainted. The yellow tags giving admittance cost only twenty-five cents, and Paul Stewart, manager of the gym, said the men that spent time and money will be well entertained at the smoker.

No University women worb found at the Wednesday night dance which was raided by four members of the council of the Woman's Student Gov't. The director, Victoria Corbin, adviser of women. Several University men were present.
Attendance at these dances, for both men and women is forbidden by the Senate rule which prohibits student attendance at all dances "Thrown open to the public indiscriminately at a fixed price."
This is the first raid made by members of the student council this year, according to Miss Corbin. Raids have been made before and women students were found. They were penalized by the police and sent away, away, but the men were not punished.
"I have nothing to do with men in the University," Miss Corbin said this morning. "That matter must be dealt with by the disciplinary committee. But the rule forbidding attendance of men at these public dances applies to, as well as women saints they should receive the same punishment."
The Senate ruling applying to these dances has been published and is generally known to University students.

My advice is to go in quietly, every organization standing shoulder to shoulder, until we win our rights. We have the whole things in our hands if we use judgment. Student health and scholastic standing is no better since the Senate has started controlling affairs, than it was before. If we let the students be more enthusiast, they will be no more enthusiasm, over student activities than in going to bed. We must keep our heads and stand together."

As Provided By Mass Meeting They Will Make Definite Plans
Senate Seven Not Chosen
George Strong, chairman of the mass meeting Wednesday, has appointed the committee that will work with the faculty to devise a plan for student representation on the student interest committee. The members appointed are: Irene Fowden, Frances Hitchcock, Dorman O'Leary, Freed J. McEwen, George Strong, Mabel McNaughton, and Joe R. Mahan. The chairman of the committee will be chosen by vote of the committee itself.
Complete Co-operation of Students Will Insure Success, Savs Strong
"The idea," said George Strong, "is to have this committee of students meet a committee of faculty members, to be appointed by Chancellor Strong, will form a plan for government of student affairs at the University."
"Of course we must have the complete co-operation of the entire school," said Mr. Strong. "If any student has ideas he thinks would aid us, give them to the least, we would appreciate it that he would make his ideas known to us."
"The students must take up the discussion of the matter and form of government freely among themselves in to make a go of this new venture."
The committee will begin working out a new plan of government of student affairs as soon as the faculty has been appointed by the Chancellor.
Dean Kelly's Rating Card Sent to Schools All Over the Country
K. U. is First School to Adopt Dean Kelly's New Rating System
Two-hundred colleges and universities in all parts of the country have been sent copies of the rating cards and an explanation of the rating system for the appointment of teacher at Johnston Kelly of the School of Education.
The University of Kansas is the first school to use a plan of rating of this sort. The schools to which these plans have been sent have been asked to send in their opinions of the plan and to suggest any change in the system or in the weightings that they might deem advisable.
Under Dean Kelly's plan the teachers who register for appointments will be placed in one of four classes major department, minor department, the education department, and the supervisors of teaching. The weighting for the major department is 34, the minor department 19, the education department 19, and the supervisors of teaching 28. The registered teachers will be weighted on educational factors, 50 points, professional factors, 30 points, and personal factors, 20 points. They will be rated on educational factors, they will be rated on the subject, and the degree of the subject, and ability to express thoughts. The professional factors considered are, efficiency in classroom teaching, faithfulness in performing duties, and co-operation. The personal factors that they will be rated on are physical vigor, persons

"The Gentlemen In the Senate who are setting out to defeat the League of Nations are those I would not trust overnight," said ex-President Taft in a speech in San Francisco and thereby apparently has let himself in for a drubbing at the hands of angry senators.
Testimony As To whether the 35th Division was or was not properly handled and supported swag again to severe criticism when a letter was introduced in the House Thursday from Col. Carl Ristine, commander of the 139th Regiment, a Kansas-Missouri unit. Colonel Ristine said, "the fathers and mothers in the United States knew the number who have been sacrificed on the alter of inefficiency, I think it would be enlightening information." Maj. Gen Peter Traub, commander of the 35th appeared before a Senate committee Thursday. He denied all charges of inefficiency, said the dead of the 35th numbered only about 500 and the wounded about 4,300 in the five days the 35th was in the Argonne Battle. He said from the desperate nature of the fighting it was marvelous the losses were not much greater. He himself was gassed three times. The infantry was never without the artillery support, he said, replying to senior men's charges; only six shells he fired and two fell, fell among advancing Americans. General Traub said he was in that barrage and he spoke several times of being at the front, "were a general ought to be," and of dugging shells. Ten times as many ambulances as were practicable for use could not have moved the wounded promptly he said, and he added that is was impossible to bring the wounded back other than at night. He took the responsibility for removing Brigadier General Martin of Kansas, a National Guardman, and explained that he removed at the same time a regular army brigadier and two regular army colonels. He said he liked General Martin very much; and that the regular army brigadier he removed was an old friend and a member of the class at West Point.
Talking Or Printing anything against the I. W. or Non-Partisan League would send a Kansas to jail for ninety days and make possible a fine of $500, according to provisions of a bill introduced in the Kansas House by Representative Shideler of Crawford County.

Mrs.Bumpstead-Leigh Cast Practicing Hard For Play on March
"The students in the cast of 'Mrs. BumpestLeigh' are showing up well in practice," said Prof. Arthur Mac Murray, coach of the play, today. "They are showing themselves thoroughly in earnest in their work."
Many of Dozen Actors Have Appeared Before University Audiences Previously
"The same scenery that was admired so much in 'Under Cover' will be used for this play," said Herman Hangen, manager, today. "This setting cost $300 originally and was bought for use in Dramatic Club productions. It is well suited for "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh" being scenery for the drawing room of a well-to-do home."
The cast for this Dramatic Club play is practicing regularly several times a week in preparation for its final production at the Bowersock Theatre March 3. This production will be the biggest play put on by the Dramatic Club during the year and is of great interest to the University because all of the actors in it are students chosen in try-outs from candidates representative of the entire University.
One Hundred and One "Funny" Clowns at Circus
Twelve K. U. students have parts in the play. They are: Florence Butler, Aphidle Larsen, Marguerite Adams, Webb Wilson, Ed Patton, Neal Carmen, Mary Johns, Herman Flemming, Nadine Blair, Fring-strellow, Payton Kayler, and Florence Ingham. Many of these actors have played roles in other plays or exhibitions in former plays. Others who are new actors to K. U. are showing ability in playing their parts in the practices according to Coach MacMurray. The seat sale by mail is now going on, the management said.
Clara Nibb, Helen Peffer, Arnistina Cissna and Louise Nixon Ring Masters
Doris Drought, manager of the World's Greatset Indoor Circus which is to be given in Robinson Gymnasium April 1, by the Woman's Athletic Association, said this morning that the circus this year would need to be and better than ever. The whole gymnasium is to be used for this circus.
The animal show will be given on the small floor on the woman's side, the side show on the small floor on the men's side and the big two-ring circus will take place on the big floor unstairs.
A jitney-dance will follow the performance under the big-top. As the name indicates all those desiring to dance may do so by paying a nickel to gain admission to the floor. Special music will be provided.
There will be all the stunts of a regular circle under the big top. There will be 101 clowns, hula dancers, bareback riders, n cobrats, and tumblers. Some of the special stunts are character and horse races, tumbling matches, and a boxing match. All arms will have charge of flaring stunts; will be assisted by Helen Peffer, Amstrom Cleasan and Louise Nixon.
Nadine, Blair is chief-of-policy and with her efficient force will keep order and return all lost children. Laura Harkrader is chief of the rostautsand will be has assisted by the freshman basketball team. Popper, crackers jack, peanuts, and chewing gum will be sold.
Katherine Fulkerson will be the director of the 24-piece band which will play for the side-shows, the main show and the opening concert. Badf is a special feature of the circus.
At the regular monthly meeting of the Kansan Board last night the following members of the editorial staff were elected:

Subsistence Money Must Wait Until Government Settles With University
Navy Welfare Committee Receives No Reply to Questions To University
"Subsistence money for men of the S. A. T. C. including the naval unit will not be available until final settlement is made by the government with the University." This was the statement made today by Karl Klooz, manager of the University business office.
The men will be paid seventy-five cents per day for food from date of induction to October 7, and twenty-five cents per day for lodging from date of induction to the date the companies moved into barracks.
"The University is doing all it can," said Registrar Foster, "and we would be very glad to help the men. This seems to be the universal situation. Doctor Brandenburg of the Burg Normal told me the other day that the department was delayed. It takes time for the Government to work out all the details.
"I recall that a letter was received a week or so ago asking a number of questions about subsistence money for the navy," continued Registrai Foster. "As I remember it, the letter came over to the business office for answer. If we are given a copy of the letter it will have due attention."
At the business office no record could be found of that particular letter. The letter referred to was signed by members of the Navy Welfare Committee, composed of Warren Blazer, chairman, Frank Marxen, and Robert T. Rendall, and Rex Brown. The following questions were asked:
1. Will the men in the Naval Unit of the S. A. T. C. get any subsistence for the month of October, 1918? If so, when?
2. Has the Navy paid the Univer sity in full vet?
How much did the University reward her one day her man from the Navy Department?
4. Did the University have any thing to do with the previously enlisted men not getting the regular subsistence rate of two dollars per day as stated on their orders to active duty?
1. Will men who had the influenza last fall have to pay any hospital fees?
6. Will the men who paid their enrollment fees last fall get a refund? 7. Have you a list of the navy men in the Marine Unit were in the Naval Unit last fall?
Chorus for 1919 Follies
Picked from 100 Try-Outs
Dancers and Stars Chosen on Competitive Basis This Year
Try-outs for the annual K. U. Follies were held Thursday afternoon in Robinson Gymnasium at 4:30 o'clock. The following women gained a place in the two choruses: Leone Forey, Virginia Melvin, Jessie Martindale, Earline Allen, Nadine Weibel, Mallell Powls, Viiolet Matthews, Neva Cook, Margaret Ramseyer, Cyra Sweat, Jennie Glendening, Mildred Deets, Charlotte Carnie, Dorothy Button, Mary Brown, Edna Rising, Rilla Hammat, Marian Eastlake, Ruth Birky eloise McNutt
The following women were selected for specialties: Virginia Johnston Marjorie Dilley, Arnista Cissna, Lauville Clandel, and Gladys Dumkin.
"The date for the Folies is not to be announced as yet," sail Mabel McNaughton, director of the Folies. "But I must say that there was a great deal of good material trying out and as plans progress, new women may be added, or put in place of material that does not prove satisfactory. However, I do not believe that we will have any trouble with rehearsals, as all the women seemed ethusiastic."
The try-out Thursday were final, the director announces, and no more will be given anyone. If new members are introduced, a special try-out will be given for them.
There were about one hundred tryouts, each one having to sing and dance for the test. The choruses will meet Monday, afternoon at 4:30 o'clock at the gymnasium for the first practice.

Woman Laws Uphold Acts
Of Lively Legal Confreeres
The women who are enrolled in the School of Law today expressed their opinions regarding the "Bolshevism" in the raging at Green Hall this week.
Consuela Krugg, 19'12, said: "I'm behind the men of the School of Law in what they are trying to do. They are doing the best they can to get what they want, and they are doing what they think is right."
Ruth Adair, '120, expressed much the same feeling when she said, "The School of Law hangs together, and we women are standing by it."
Both Miss Krugg and Miss Adain agreed that although they had taken no active part in the demonstrations, they continued an indication of the old college spirit.
"When we are with the Romans, we do as the Romans do," said both the Kansas women laws.
Plain Tales From the Hill
One man on this Hill says that when it comes to nerve, the women in the great University of Kansas have the genuine stuff. The other night he took a girl to a dance and after is was all over, she looked up into his eyes and sighed: "Oh, I just feel so good that I could dance all night." They stepped out of the hall and the young man, remembering the remark started to walk past the waiting taxis, "Oh, George lets take a car home, I'm so tired I can hardly walk a step."
It takes a long time for some freshmen to form their philosophy of life and to decide just what course of action to follow in this queer world. For instance, this is the wall of one of the professors I encountered the University just this year.
If you wear a hat in class, the professor is sure to ask who is under the hat. If you don't wear one on the campus these cold mornings every-one questions your sanity. And if you are wearing a hat and itting it back on, they say you spend all your time arranging your headgear."
Did the Phi Delta save their chapter record, or their silver from the flames that ravished their house Wednesday? No one seems to know for sure just what he did carry out. One freshman, however, took it upon himself to save the furniture. After throwing several mahogany chairs out of the second story window and smashing them to smithery steel, he built a bed suit dried it carefully down stairs and across the street where that valuable piece of furniture would be safe from all harm.
The most interesting part of a newspaper to a woman is the part that is torn off.
Engineers' Challenge To Revive Old Spirit
"The idea in challenging the laws to a snow-ball fight yesterday was not to revive the old feud which formerly existed between students of the School of Engineering and of the School of Law," said Warren Blazier, a senior engineer, this morning. "We were simply trying to stir up a little pep at the University, and particularly among our own freshmen."
At the mass meeting of engineering students at Marvin Hall when the challenge to the laws was prepared, talks were made by Newton H. Benscheidt, Joe R. Muhm, Warren Blazier, and Prof H. A, Rice.
"We want to get the old-time per-
son to the University," said Newton
Benchard.
Professor Rice recalled former contexts between the engineer and the laws. "The last fight we had with the laws," he said, "we made them take action in Green Hall, and Uncle Jimmy hime to come out and beg us to go away."
A poster now appears in Marvin Hall. It reads:
Let's Keep It.

Compulsory recognition of upperclassmen is being backed by the superintendent at West Point now. Upperclassmen are permitted to issue orders which they expect to be obeyed. The order was passed to check having.
Jayhawkers Defeated Tiger Basketball Team In Close Game 36-29
Missouri Lost Chance for Valley Basketball Championship This Year
Kansas Had Final Punch
Kansas Aggies Lead Valley Race With Nebraska a Close Second for Title
The Kansas Jayhawkers spoiled the chances of the Tigers for another Missouri Valley basketball championship this year when they defeated the Missouriians last night on the Columbia court by a score of 36-29. The game was fast and close from the start, but the Jayhawkers played excellent basketball throughout and had the final punch to win.
This is the third successive year that Kansas has won one game in the four games played with the Tigers. Last year Kansas lost both games played here, but went to Columbia and divided a series.
This makes the third defeat for the Tigers this year, the other two being at the hands of the Nebraska Cornhuskers a week ago.
The Kansas Aggies, with a clean record, is the leading team in the Valley race now and Nebraska is second with two defeats and eight victories. The Tigers have a possible chance to win if they do not lose another game this season.
Dr. Nelson Discusses Health of University In Graduate Magazine
Year
Tells of Work of Dispensary During the Past N
"The pursuit of Health in University Life," is the title of an article by Dr. C. Ferdinand Nelson, professor of physiological chemistry, in the February issue of the Graduate Magazine, which is ready for distribution. Doctor Nelson makes interesting comments upon the attitude of the college student toward his health, referring the reader to Benjamin Franklin's formula. "We have sought to be wise, wealthy, but not healthy." He begins an account of the awakening of Universities to the benefits derived from the establishing of health services.
Last year the work of the University of Kansas hospital included 11,000 consultations by staff physicians, the majority of whom were inoculations against typhoid fever.
Miss Winston of the department of English has an intensive study of the results obtained from the questionaires sent out by the Senate committee on vocational opportunities for women.
The magazine also carries a memorial of Dr. John Harper Long formerly a professor of chemistry, by J. A. Wickersham, 76, and the annual departments of University, news, athletics and alumni.
Convocation Costs $50.
According to J. M. Shea
The University Senate sys one hindrance in the path of weekly convocations, which has been asked for by the students, is the expense of getting Robinson Gymnasium ready for such meetings. This expense amounts to $50 for each convocation, according to Chancellor Frank Strong.
John M. Shea, superintendent of University buildings and grounds, said. "Although I did not know the Senate had figured out the expense of getting the gymnasium ready for conventions, I believe they are correct in the amount. The platform and seate have to be put up and taken down each time and the large room must be heated. If everything is counted the expense will amount to $50."
Illinois heroes in action are to be brought before the student body of the University of Illinois through the war section of the "Twenty" Illo. Snapshots, ten sketches, and anecdotes are being gathered concerning every faculty member or student who has been in the service. These will show the actual everyday work of these men and women during war.

Reason, too late, perhaps, may convince you of the folly of misspending time—George Washington.
FEBRUARY 22
He was democratic, yet firm. A lover of peace, still he was able in command of war forces.
Tomorrow we shall pause a bit to think over the life of George Washington, whose birthday we shall commemorate. We think of him as a parent, guardian of the early days of a nation. We look to him as a leader of our country in its fight for self-government and as first president of the republic.
The most fashionable trimming for the new spring hats right now is half a dozen pompoms' of fresh white snow.
THE BLUE-COVERED BOOK
Professor I. Markham Down does not like the soup which covers the sidewalks. It retards the speed with which he walks to class, so that he loses five minutes of the lecture hour
The student who had made a date with a young woman, not knowing where she lived, was overjoyed Thursday when the student directory appeared and he found her name in it.
The professor tucked one of the blue-backed books under his arm, pleased at the prospect of not having to go to the registrar's office to find the telephone number of a student.
The class for the first time learned the initials of their instructor.
Freshmen and sophomores hunted hurriedly through the book to view the initial appearance of their names in such a publication.
The faculty of Cornell University intends a paternal direction of its fraternities. It has voted to have one of its representatives lodged in each if the sixty fraternity houses at the university.
ADD IT UP
Every once in a while one of the busy little computers of useless, but otherwise true, facts goes to work to estimate how much wasted energy flows over Nigara Falls in each of her days hours. But why pick on Niagara?
There are a lot of other sources of wasted energy, some of them much nearer home. We invite the computers to consider:
Energy wasted by electric current used to illuminate green and red lights in drug store windows.
Energy wasted by women in fashionable tight skirts trying to walk fast.
Energy wasted by men standing on street cormers watching the above.
Energy wasted by people who stand in line two hours before the dinner.
Energy wasted by stenographer chewing gum.
Energy wasted by people who scribble unintelligible marks on the cover of the telephone directory while waiting for a connection.
Energy wasted by pedestrians shouting harsh language in the direction of vanishing taxi-drivers who almost ran over them.
Energy wasted by men trying to drink enough before July 1 to last the month.
Energy wasted by people who use their opera glasses every minute at the winter garden for fear they will miss something.
Energy wasted by making lists like this.—New York American.
SENATE MISTAKES
SEEN THROUGH STUDENT EYES
The following statements have been made by different University students, regarding recent action of the University Senate. The Kanan prints them for what they are worth, in an attempt to give varied student view-point, whether it is reasonable or exacerbated.
Members of the Senate and the Student Interest Committee do not really know what rules have been passed, and what regulations are now in effect. Their statements are widely divergent.
If the $1.50 ruling has been in effect since last May, and if it applies to organization parties, why hasn't it been enforced?
Students should be represented and have votes on the Student Interest Committee, and not merely be called in to express their opinions, and then dismissed.
No small organization can give a party for $1.50 the couple, with music and hall rent at the present prices.
How were fraternities and sororities to know that the $1.50 ruling applied to their parties when George O. Foster, who goes over the accounts of parties, did not know it himself?
Students are awake to the necessity of conservation this year, and regulation of prices would be adequately taken care of by members of the Men's Student Council, W.S.G.A, and the Pan-Hellenic organizations.
The Student Interest Committee diregards the wishes of students concerning the closing hour of dances.
It is impossible for anything but a Varsity dance to be given for $1.50 a couple.
Two years ago the Prom cost $7. This year general prices are much higher. Just how does the Senate expect any party at all for $1.50? Incidentally, the Senate made no objection to the $7 admission fee in 1917.
MADAME FOCH
Madame in Marechale Foch is Commander-in-Chief in her own home. She is a French lady of quiet and calm determination where the order and regularity of her household are concerned. She dislikes being late for luncheon, and she dislikes the Marshal being late for luncheon. Fortunately, the Marshall dislikes it himself. On one occasion, when after the signing of the armistice Foch was engaged in prolonged conversation with allied representatives and the hour for luncheon had gone by, a message came into the conference room to say that Madame la Marechale could wait no longer for lunch. It may have been impatience on the part of Madame in Marechale, or perhaps Foch expected that message, according to a possible little prearranged stratagem between Monsieur and Madame. Needless to say, that in times of great pressure, Madame makes no demur when the rules of her household are just simply ignored.—Christian Science Monitor.
An Irishman was engaged at stonebreaking on the roadside, but not being used to the work, did not make much progress. A friend, who the hammer from him, he broke the chanched to his hand, then tossing a large stone, tried to show him the right way. Taking stone with ease.
"Sure now," said Pat, "and it be easy for you to break the stone after I have been softening it for the last half hour." —Reedy's Mirror.

WEATHER—MUSIC
While on the roof bold spears of rain,
Strike quick and sharp—quick then-slow.
The wind is purring through the pines,
The shutters chatter low,
The woodbine clinging to the caves
Goes scratching to and fro.
While on the roof holds spears of rain
is ever one of them.
B. B. THOMAS, in *Biston Transcrip*
WOMEN ARE GOING FORWARD At no time in the history of the Kansas State Agricultural college—and the same is doubtless true of other co-educational colleges—have there been so many women in positions of responsibility in the student body as now active, managerial, educational offices in the various student organizations are held by young women.

The pines are crooning lullabies,
A march the shutters drum.
The woodbine tinkles little tunes
The rain appears to hum;
No instrument the weather plays
Is ever still in the Rivers of

The impetus to this was of course given by the departure of young men for the war and, during the early part of the present college year, by the fact that the students' army training corps occupied pretty well the time of the young men who were in college. It is to be expected, however, now that the young women have filled the various offices successfully, that the longer they serve, the more first choice for the important positions on the campus. A capable woman will stand the same chance as a canvable man.
The effect of all this is bound to reach out into the world outside colleges and universities. In this part of the country it may have a particularly strong influence. Happily promaster than other parts of the country to give women the vote, the middle west has not been so ready to recognize the place of women in professional and business life. There has been a tendency to regard certain lines of work—teaching, nursing, and a few others as "ladylady" and other lines of work as quite unsuited to feminine qualities. A well known employer in a large city in this part of the country said to the writer that he would never employ a woman "in a position in which she had to come in contact with the public." Women who are graduated from college after proving their efficiency as well as their scholarship, will not longer accept such restrictions upon their activities. And their wholesome influence will penetrate the whole field in which they work and live.
The man—or woman—who would restrict women's work or pleasure or opportunity for economic independence is no friend of woman, or, for that matter, of the race. The middle west—the "great valley" as Masters so appropriately named it, will its largeness and its newness, the place where ancient confining cases are broken—Kansas Industrialist.

Sermonettes
Students are prone to judge each other too cruelly and from a view point that is purely superficial. Too many snap judgments are made on the real worth of a person. We give out a final decree after considering only his personal appearance, his social case, and what little we know of his intellectual attainment, by being in the same class.
The fur-collared overcoat covers no more promising citizen than the overcoat which is a leftover from the S. A. T. C. One may safely assert that the brightest men and women in this University are not considered the "keenest," in the common parlance. They are persons who will accomplish something in the world, and whose qualities are admirable. It is safe to say that they do not condemn others as out of the question at one glance. They use judgment, tolerance, and sympathy.

Often one student is ashamed of his earlier opinion of another, when he learns the circumstances of the other. One of these qualities which count and are lasting.

"Class Spirit on Decline"
Says "Uncle Jimmy" Green
Program and Big Attendance Made Freshman Smoker
A Success
"I have seen forty classes enter the University of Kansas, and there has been a gradual decline in class spirit from year to year," said "Uncle Jimmy" Green, in addressing the freshmen in Eagles Hall, Thursday night.
"You men have the right spirit as shown by your coming here in a body tonight. I would like to see the old time pep back in the institution—the pep that manifests itself in the nature of class contests."
"The meeting was a success in every way," according to Paul Stewart, chairman of the Smoker Committee. Boxing matches were staged, and among the contestants were two negro men that later entertained the company with an African man named Mumma and team led by Prof. H. A. Rice of the School of Engineering made up the program, followed by an old time pen meeting.
Harley Scott, class president, gave a short talk on fellowship and the purpose of the smoker. "I appreciate the large representation of freshmen in my class," he said, shown by you men is of the Undergraduate type." concluded Scott.
Dean Kelly Advocates Less Controlled Students
Speaks Before Parent-Teachers Association of Quincy School
School
"The job of the American people today in educational lines is to build competent, independent, educated citizens who can think for themselves," was the theme of a talk by Dean F. J. Kelly before the Patron-Teachers Association of the Quincy School Thursday afternoon.
"First, we must develop Americans with the courage of their conviction," said Dean Kelly, "in direct opposition to the German system, which was a model before the war. We must have better behavior but less confidence in our system," he explained, he meant the child should be approached in such a manner that the appeal will reach the inner self, and he will learn to think

for himself and do the right thing because it is right, not because he is told to do it.
"We must develop in the child an interest in his work, by placing richer and fuller things in his training by giving him more personal contact with the work-a-day world surrounding him, satisfying his curiosity by inspection industrial to factories and all manner of industrial plants."
We have the Boy Scout and Camp Fire movements as examples of the test method of developing "squareness" of character. He also paid tribute to Roosevelt for standing by his principles in his first experience in a frontier saloon.
Legislative Committee Visits Rosedale Hospital
At present the Bell Memorial hospital, a dispensary and laboratory complete the School of Medicine at Rosdale and a new and more modern building is needed to enable the profession to expand.
The University is asking for only two new buildings this year, being the hospital at Rosedale and a new heating and power plant here at Lawrence.
Chancellor Strong accompanied the sub-committee of the Ways and Means committee of the State legislature on an inspection trip to the School of Medicine at Rosedale today.
The School of Medicine has presented a petition to the legislature for an appropriation of $200,000 with which a new hospital will be constructed.
Hoyt Roach, c'20, will spend the week-end in Kansas City.

Railway Traffic Still Cheaper Than Freight By Truck, Says Prof.
FEBRUARY 21,1913.
C. C. Williams of Engineering School Writes for Technical Journal
Highways Augment Steam
Analysis Shows That Junking of Light Traffic Line Is Not Economical
An article by C. C. Williams, professor of railway engineering, entitled "Light-Traffic Railway vs. Highway and Motor Truck," appeared in a recent number of the Engineering News-Record. Discussing the economic status of light-traffic railways and their relative advantages as compared with highways, Professor Williams writes:
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
nails written.
"In general, truck hauling is feasible and economical only for the short hauls, and trucks should be operated to supplement the railways rather than to compete with them.
"The advent and rapid development of motor trucks have rendered obsolete the data and conclusions which have governed the relationship between railways and highways. The question as to the relative economy of a railway or a highway as an instrumentality of transportation is at once raised in the proposal to build a roadway for such a record with a recent order, and to build a highway on the existing roadbed.
"A railway is a highly specialized type of highway, requiring special equipment, terminal facilities and so forth, and the fixed charges are relatively high, with a corresponding expenses over the ordinary highway.
"The highway with its lower fixed charge will be the cheaper mode of transporting the relatively small amount of freight."
LIGHT TRAFFIC. HEAVY COST
LIGHT TRAFFIC. THEY use the Comparative figures to see the Colorado trunk line railway 261.1 miles long, and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad, a 7,155.5 mile trunk line railway, are given. The figures show that the average operating expenses per ton for the light-traffic line, is twice that of the trunk line railroad. This, of course, is because the trunk line has a longer average operating time than it would erase tonnage per mile, and other economics of large scale operation.
The total traffic of the Colorado Midland was 89,000,000 ton miles, according to the Interstate Commerce Commission report of 1915, which is

quoted in the article. Estimating the probable cost of transporting this traffic over the highway in trucks, both with and without trailers, the following comparison is made:
Colorado Midland . . . . . . . . . $1,961,450
Highway, with trailers, 7,351,700
Highway, with trailers, 3,729,600
"As the figures stand," says Professor Williams, "the railroad appears to be more economical, and the question of junking it resolves itself into the general economic situation—whether the transportation of this traffic by any means at the necessary cost is justified."
Contest for Snapshots Started by Jayhawker
O. Hopfer Will Give Annual to Snappiest Collection of Views

If you have been to the show lately you have seen it, and I'll bet you have been wondering what it was and who was going to locate there. It is pretty enough to excite quite a lot of curiosity, for it is like a spring morning in its furnishings. The long panels on the wall are bright with peacocks and flowers, and the furnishings are of black and yellow. A quaint ebony table and black and yellow cane seated chairs appeal to one instantly. The "long mirrors, the cunning little dressing room with its long curtains, the huge basket of flowers, the quaint umbrella stand fill you with curiosity at the first glance and you wonder whose place this is and that is going to come next. And then will see the smiling affable owner of the place. He will show you around, and you will inspect his pressing machine, which is a late model, and upon which he can do efficient work most efficiently, and you are instantly conscious of a number of suits, garments and other garments that you own which will be vastly improved by a trip to this wonderful place.

Basketeers Hit Stride And Clean Up Games In Missouri Invasion
NUMBER 85
Veteran Pikers Blanketed by Fast Guarding of Kansas Team
Goal Shooting is Accurate
Tigers Surprised by Defeat-Kansas Aggies Due for Hard Sledding
After playing a loose brand of basketball in every game this season until the Eastern trip, the Kanaas Jayhawkers have finally hit their proper stride and they demonstrated this fact when they took a two-game series from the Washington University Pikers at St. Louis Friday and Saturday, after beating the second game and the secondimbia Thursdays in game 36-29. The score in the first game against Washington was 35-31 and the second contest was a walkaway for the Jayhawkers, the score being 39-19.
The Kansas five won the series from the Pikers by superior teamplay and accurate goal shooting, and the defense formed by Lonborg and Mason, the Jayhawker guards, kept the Pikers within scoring distance of the goal. The game was throughout the four games and his work was largely responsible for the excellent showing of the Jauhwakers.
Johnny Bunn led the Kansas offense in the first Washington game with six goals from the field, some of which were spectacular shots. Bennett, playing the other forward position, counted four times from the field and Matthews and Mason each scored three times. Lon邦硬 bjoined in one goal field to the total. Dunker and McElwle at the forwards and Cautain Marquard, All-Valley center last year, played well for the Pikers.
In the last game at St. Louis, Bunn again led the attack and scored seven times from the field. The other men were hitting the basket in real form and Mathews added five field goals and five free throw to the score. The fact that the Washington team, composed of four veterans from last year's five, was only able to score five field goals proves that the Kansas guarding was excellent. Marquis Bunkley, Pike center, was one of the high score men in the Missouri Valley last year and he counted only three field goals in the first game against Kansas and two in the second.
Coach Hamilton was greatly pleased with the work of his team on the trip and believes that they have hit their true stride now and will keep going at that pace until the end of the season.
In the second Missouri game at Columbia, after Scott had scored first with a free throw, Mason counted from the field and the Jayhawkers held the lead for the remainder of the game. A report from Columbia says that Missouri basketball foliage looked good in that games and that the Jayhawkers displayed the best brand of basketball seen there this season.
AGGIES DUE FOR HARD SLENDING
If the Jayhawkers do not fall into another slump, the Kansas Aggies are due for hard shelding when they come to Lawrence Thursday and Friday of this week for a return series with Coach Hamilton's men. The Aggies are now leading the Missour'

The second group of twenty-three pictures of University men who lost their lives during the war was put up in Fraser Hall Saturday.
The first group had been on display for two weeks and it is planned to leave each group on exhibition for that time.
Professor M. W. Sterling, historian of the University, who has charge of the exhibit, said this morning that he hoped arrangements could be made by Memorial Day to have additional cases so that the entire group could be displayed at once.

Father Andrew Bienowske, his housekeeper, Ms. Stanislaw Lypchinski, and Father Edward Podleswski have been arrested in connection with the alleged murder of Sister Superior Mary Johns of Isadore Convent near Traverse City, Michigan. The nun disappeared in August, 1907 when Father Bienowske was priest at Isadore Church. His housekeeper, Mrs. Lypchinski, was reported to have been very jealous of Sister Superior Mary Johns. On search for the missing nun, bloodhounds trailed to the basement of the church, but the officers could find no trace of her. Father Podleswski succeeded to the police and said he had told a girl that he removed Sister Superior Mary John's body from the basement of the church to the cemetery. Jacob Flees of Isadore confessed that he helped Father Podleswski remove the remains. Judget Martin Brown of Leland, Michigan, who is conducting the investigation, said the church was backing the state in every way in trying to clear up the mystery.

Colonel Sloan Presents Plan For Artillery Unit Of R.O.T.C. at Kansas
Field Artillery Branch Would Include Ninety-four Horses and Sixty Men
Colonel Sloan, a representative of the War Department from Washington, was at the University Friday to lay before the authorities a plan for establishing an R. O. T. C. unit of field artillery at the University.
Members of the R. O. T. C. would not be required to drill and no uniforms would be furnished. Four years of college work would be a requirement. Enlistment in the R. O. T. C. would be permanent, every man being required to finish the four years of college work.
The R. O, T. C. probably would not be in active operation until next fall, if the plan is accepted, but arrangements would be made this spring. The Senate has not been up before the Senate for discussion and nothing has been decided.
If this plan for the artillery branch of the R. O. T. C is decided upon the S. A. T. C. buildings will probably be used as stables and barracks. If this unit could be established at the beginning of the next quarter and year, he would be gained over the schools that wait until next fall to establish the unit.
The field artillery unit would call for one battery, with ninety-four horses and sixty enlisted men to be in charge of them. The University would furnish quarters for the men, and stables for the horses.
French Loss Irreparable,
M. Andre Fribourg Says
Youth of France, Especially Students, Suffered Most in War. Speaker Reports
"Reparation is impossible, for France has suffered an irreparable loss in the war," said M. Andre Fribourg, lecturing for the Alliance Française in Green Hall, Friday afternoon. "The youth of France is almost wiped out. It can not be restored by any repentant enemy." It is the youth of France, particularly the young French, who gave most of their country, according to Monsieur Fribourg. The students in Paris left their work to enlist at the first call of war and nearly two millions of them were killed.
Monsieur Fribourg gave as an example of the men whose work was interrupted by the war, Prof. Pierre Maurice Masson, who was preparing his thesis for the doctor's degree. He promptly organized a company of students with the same care and in intelligence of the other his work. He fell in battle early in the war, and after his death the theses he had written was read before the Sorbone, and the degree with honorable mention was conferred upon him.
The committee appointed by George Strong to confer with a faculty committee on a new plan of government of student affairs, can not act until after the next Senate meeting. Chancellor Frank Strong said he did not have the power to appoint a committee that could take such action, and matters would have to be held up until the Senate could meet, when a petition will have to be presented to them, asking that they appoint such a committee, or give such power to the Chancellor.
The cheerfulness with which the youths of France gave themselves to the cause was emphasized by Morlèbourg. "They died smiling," he said.
The next Senate will not meet until next week, so no further action can be taken.

Announcements
The first rehearsal of the two choruses selected from the try-outs February 19, for the annual K. U Follies, will be this afternoon at 4:36 o'clock, in Robinson Gymnasium.
Large French Carnival Will Be Given March 1 In Robinson Gym
K, U, Plans to Swallow Confett and Lemonade in French Orphans Benefit
All K.U. is going to dance, eat, swallow, confetti and lemonade at the first annual Mardi Gras, given by the Cercle Francais for the benefit of French orphans, at the gymnasium, March 1, at 7 o'clock. An event, unique in the history of the University, will be this carnival, after the time-honored style of the French.
The whole room will be converted into a motley scene of bright colors, costumed people from every country in the world, and exhibits that will equal the Chicago Word's Fair, to say nothing of side shows, a Palace of Wonders, and a real Punch and Judy Show.
The center of the room will be roped off, and at ten o'clock, the dancing will begin. Dances will be sold at five cents each. There will be a group of Italian sisters perform tume, and some patriotic feature songs.
Omicron Nu will appeal to the palate with all sorts of delicious confections, and French pastries. The Spanish club will have a fortune telling booth, where one can learn his future in the crystal, or see what happens in other exhibits and attractions, as practically all organizations will be represented.
Every organization is assisting in the big event, and each will out rival the other in the elaborativeness of their booths. The W.S.G.A. is working on a war exhibit that will be worth the price of admission. There will be an oriental booth with real embroideries and a Club, with real embroideryes and costumes from India.
All students are urged to come in costume, if possible and masked if they like. Dates are not necessary.
Date of Sophomore Hop
Is Changed to May 9
Students Demand that Hop be Postponed Because of Senate Rule
The Sophomore Hop will not be given March 14, as was first announced, according to Bob Lynn, manager, but will be held May 9 instead. "The hop has been postponed because the students have demanded it," said Mr. Lynn. "The expression of the students at the indignation meeting last week showed that they did not want the Hop to be one of the $1.50 parties, and if it should be given on March 14 it would have to be. The students believe that if 'the party is untitled' later a date that perhaps some decision will be reached whereby the Hop will be counted as one of the bigger parties of the school year and that a better can be given."
All arrangements had been made for the Hop for March 14, and work had already begun on the farce for the party, but according to Mr. Lynn the affair was to be a student party and since they did not want it until later all these arrangements were made. "For the gymnasium are taken and May 9 is the only one that could be obtained for the Hop.
The sophomore class has the gymnasium for March 14, and according to the plans now there will be a sophomore dance that night instead of the Hop. Arrangements are being made now for the class dance.
K. U. is Among Leaders In Vocational Guidance
The University of Kansas is among the leaders of the colleges and universities of the nation in the matter of vocational guidance for its students, according to Prof. A. T. Wailer, in charge of that department, the National Association for Vocational Guidance in St. Louis last week.
Most of the time of the conference Wednesday was takup with discussion of the work among high school students where it is more common than in universities. Thursday and Friday were devoted to the problems of vocational education and training, similar to the training given Section B of the S, A, T, C here last fall.
New Semester Begins Today in School of Law
The second semester in the School of Law begins today. New classes will be opened in Real Property, Partnership, Constitutional Law, Sales, and Eailments. Any student in the college having ninety hours' credit, can enter the School of Law, and receive fifteen hours' credit as a maximum net credit for that work an A.B. degree in the college department.
The School of Law has been running on the pre-war basis of two semesters a year, and did not change to the continuous four term plan when the college did. The third quarter begins April 21.
"Many of the old students are coming back now right along," said a professor in the school. "Many are just returning from the army, and they all seem mighty glad to get back. However, we do not expect a very large enrollment of men just entering the School for the first time."
Plain Tales From the Hill
"Beauty is only skin deep," said Professor Derry in American Government class Friday and upon looking over the room added, "But there are some women here with thick skins."
Did you know that one freshman tipped the attendant who had charge of the men's checking at the Law Scrim four bits?
It is rumored that Demsey Elliot will spend his Wednesday nights with his studies for several weeks.
"There is one thing nice about having the registrar on the door at the dances. It stops the stags," said one of the members of the suburban fraternity who usually furnishes the dance date for several of his brothers.
The lights on the campus are gett ing scarce. The fraternity freshmer must be getting them as they cannot be found at the sorority houses.
Have you noticed James Gray? He is the man on the Hill who never wears a cap in the most severe weather.
One rooming house here has a man who stays up after all have gone to bed to study, and then sleeps through his classes instead of getting up.
Three Phi Bets were held up by a colored man in the Park and upon objecting one of the men received a casualty on his nose from the bitt of the revolver. The other two men gave over their week's allowance with no objection after seeing the result of the first attempt at arbitration. *
A University woman discovered a mouse in her wastebasket recently. To save emptying the basket she put it in the middle of the bath tub and told it to come ahead.
The engineers say the coast artillery corps of the R. O, T. C., which is being advocated here will be located on the beach at Potter's Lake and it will be used by the engineers to repel all threatened or attempted invasions by the Laws.
Prof. Patterson Stranded In Snow Drifts Saturday
The Fords standing in front of the Pi K. A. house preved too great a temptation to two young ladies recently. They got into one of the cars and released the brakes. The car started silently down Indiana Street and the girls were congratulating themselves upon their smooth get-a-way when the gas refused to feed. There was nothing to do but to park the car and return to the Pi K. A. house to confess their crime.
It took three hours to go the 15 miles from Moundridge to Halatdee yesterday when Prof. D. L. Patterson returned to Halatdee yesterday to catch a train after delivering an admits from Moundbridge to Halatdee between the drifts on each side of the road making them nearly impassable.
Miss Nelle Rhodes, of Frankfort spent Monday at the Chi Omega house.
"The World War and the League of Nations" was the theme of the address, which was given under the auspices of the session Department of the University.

Student Representation Is Granted at Meeting Called By Chancellor
Committee Wants Ten Student Members Added to Student Interest Committee
To Be Chosen From Councils
Monthly Meetings Will Be Held and Each Member Will Have Equal Vote
A plan for student representation on Student Interests Committee was adopted at a meeting of the officers of the Men's Student Council and the Woman's Student Government Association, the faculty advisers of the councils, and several members of the Student Interests Committee, called by Chancellor Frank Strong Saturday morning.
According to the plan adopted the committee will recommend to the Senate that ten student members be added to the present Student Interests Committee making a joint committee of twenty to deal with student affairs. The five officers of the W. S. G., A., the three officers of the Men's Student Council and two other members of the men's council to be elected at large will compose the student membership. Until spring election those members will be appointed or elected from the present members of the coun-
The motion adopted was;
Motion carried that a recommendation be made to the University Senate that a joint Committee on Student Affairs be created, consisting of the ten members of the Student Interests Committee, the five officers of the Woman's Student Government Association, the three officers of the Men's Student Council, and two other members of the Men's Student Council to be elected at large; until such an election can take place the two additional members from the Men's Student Council to be appointed from that organization; that the joint committee shall hold regular monthly meetings; and that all members shall have an equal vote.
The plan is the result of a movement started by both student councils several weeks ago. Petitions for student members on the Student Interests Committee had been handed to the Senate but owing to the great amount of business they had not been considered by the Senate. The meeting Saturday morning was called to hasten action on the proposition.
"The present plan seems to be what both the student body and the Senate want," Chancellor Strong said. "It is coming through two councils, the official governing bodies of the students. The large student and faculty membership will represent different phases of opinion better and the officers of the student councils, who are elected by the whole student body will be the most representative body of students to have on the committee."
An equal number of men and women on the committee and an equal number of students and faculty members are necessary, the committee believed, to obtain the best expression of student and faculty opinion.
Student and faculty members will have an equal vote, according to the plan, and questions affecting student interests will be referred to the joint committee, if the plan is adopted, as they are now referred to the faculty student interests committee. Petitions to the Senate from student organizations will be through the joint committee.
Faculty members present at the meeting were: Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith, Miss Elise Neuschwander, Prof. U. G. Mitchell, Miss Elizabeth Sprague, Miss Nadine Nowlin, Prof. J. G. Brandt. Chancellor Strong acted as chairman. Herschel Washington, George DeVoe, Lucene Spencer, Katherine Fulkerson, Irene Tihen, Mrs. Bernice White Scott, and Mary Smith were the students present
The R. O. T. C. was started in the University of Pennsylvania Feb. 10. There will be regular drilling hours and technical classroom work. For each hour per week of R. O. T. C. classroom work, the university will grant the customary one unit a year. Experienced officers will be detailed there.

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1919.
SPIRIT AND SANITY
For the men who heard Uncle Jimmy Green at the Freshman Smoker Thursday night it is hard to believe that class spirit at K. U, has for forty years been waning.
Of the good old days we have heard stirring tales. Cane rushes, class scraps, blanket tossings, black eyes, and such like, but above all, wonderful class spirit. And no one can deny that the good old days brought out real men.
Perhaps K. U. spirit instead of being on the decline is only deeper, and quieter for being deep. We admire the old outbursts of spirit but nevertheless we recognize that they were evil in some respects. The old rahrah college days are past. It is hoped that they are succeeded by something better and more substantial.
However, the present is always prone to remember only the good parts of the past. We cannot let ourselves believe that K. U. spirit is a thing of the past only, especially now when the war has brought out a spirit of help and sacrifice that has never before been equaled in the institution.
To those who favor class spirit that makes itself heard it should be pointed out that the last week has shown sentiment full of life. The best feature of the outbursts is that the students have not lost their heads. The present should be a time of sanity above all and it is to be hoped that a happy medium of sanity together with live demonstrations can be struck. Without spirit the University would be worse than dead, but college spirit must be recognized as something deeper than merely wild outbursts and noisy demonstration.
One example of misplaced ability is the man who argues about the weather and has never tried out for the debating squad.
DREAMS ON OREAD
"Some day," mused the tired student as he assumed a philosophical gaze, "some day there will be rest and quiet for us all.
"Then we shall settle down to the simple duties of our over-burdened courses with only an occasional meeting, say but two or three a week. This system of having to do a full day's work daily outside our classes and then stretching the night for three meetings and a nip of sleep, will be changed.
"We will be able to go along the campus walks unnoticed. No one will stop us and ask questions which disturb the few minutes of thought that
are the only preparation for the day's lessons. In that fair day the telephone will not call us eternally from our work.
"There will be so few meetings that the half-hour's wait for late comers will not be noticeable. Appointments will not prevent study or relaxation. Our professors will be surprised to find we have other knowledge than the customary stalls.
"The Utopian sun will be smiling when that day comes. Our grouch will turn to a grin. But until that day our only enjoyment must be the gleam of light granted in imagining the brightness of that great time."
ROAD ADVERTISEMENTS
One of the worst local advertisements of the University of Kansas is the condition of the roads and driveways on Mount Oread. To a motor car driver who has been mired in the hogs of rural Arkansas, they may hold few terrors, but to the visitor wishing to see and admire the institution they serve as an unpleasant part which will never be forgotten.
The recent snows have only emphasized the conditions which have existed for at least nearly two years. Holes and worn-out places on the surface are now miniature lakes. So much water has collected in the roads that persons on the sidewalks are spattered with mud and water by every passing motor car.
For several months the approach to the University by way of Mississippi Street has been practically impassible for automobiles. The Oread Avenue approach is full of pits and chuckholes,
With the amount of suitable rock for crushing at hand there is no reason why the driveways should be as they are. It is not necessary to have the roads paved or macadamized when a proper use of crushed rock and gravel would serve. An expenditure of a few hundred dollars in constructing curbs and improving roads would be a most profitable investment.
THE FABLE OF THE BENEVO LENT DRUGGIST AND THIRSTY STUDENTS
It was in the quiet part of the business day. In the flourishing drug store and soft drink emporium operated through benign agency of Dr. C. Astor Oile, town druggist of the little college town of Maple Hill, the cash registers had been quiet for full fifteen minutes. No one was within except the worthy doctor and his co-conspirator, John, the jerker. Suddenly a feeble tapping was heard on the door without.
The good doctor hastily opened the door, then staggered back in astonishment. For lying across the threshold, with his tongue hanging out of the corner of his mouth, lay a college student; yea, verily, a thrifty college student. And gasping he thus addressed the Christian Doctor:
"As you love me, fair sir, please part my lips and wet my patched throat with some of that wondrous elixer bednight coca cola."
"Forsooth," quoth the good doctor,
"I will, an ye possess the required amount of the Necessary."
"Two jits, or a dime," answered the doctor.
"How much is needful?" queried the thirsty one.
And quietly but firmly he shut the door in the face of the now weeping student, and retired to his office glowing with the warm satisfaction that comes from duty well done. For he was loyal to his principles — Tar Heel.
"Then answered the worthy one with resignation, "you are out of luck. This hurts me, my boy, more than it does you, but I make it a matter of course." And cent. Far be it from me to violate my business principles."
"Nay, nay, good sir—but a single jit is all I have."
RETRIBUTION A LA RUSSE

She sat there, baggard, gaunt, wan and emaciated. The rain dashed against the window in sheets and pillow cases, dripped from the rafters of the roofless dwelling, and trickled malignantly into the wistful old fire, that grew momentarily more and more feeble. A fly, a dry sob welling up in its throat—dragged itself painfully along the floor.

Let these former K, U, students help you Are you interested in stenography?"
Mary Kellogg, '04 Bachelor of Arts, now assistant director, University Extension, University of Minnesota, gives the following suggestions concerning subjects that are useful in stenography: A general course should be acquired so that information on as subjects as possible may be received.
Miss Kellogg says that the following subjects should be added to the University curriculum: Library science, (reference, filing, indexing), office administration, stenography, typewriting. Essential personal qualification for a stenographer are, tact, patience, a desire for service and adaptability.
Pearl Kimble, A. B. 1905, now private secretary to an oil producer Tulsa. Oklahoma, offers the following suggestions:
The number of openings for stenographers are increasing, according to Miss Kellogg. A four year secretarial course is offered at the University of Minnesota.
Four complete years of work at the University of Kansas will give many points to the student who is preparing to be stenographer.
Essential personal qualifications for this work are neatness common sense, and ability to forget oneself.
The remuneration is equal to the salaries paid teachers.
English, history, sociology, and economics are good courses to take as a preparation for stenographic work.
Katherine Fogarty, A. B. '18 and Teacher's Certificate, at present filling a secretarial position in Lawrence, says:
One may get into this work by appointment. Courses in writing should be given as a preparation for the same exam, but about the same as that paid to teachers.
Margaret Hoden, A. B., 1018, secretary of the Holtz Arms School Washington, D. C., suggests the fol-
A Liberal Arts course, with as much English as possible, and any course which trains one to think quickly are the most important to hold positions of responsibility.
Lynn Beyer, A. B. 1913, secretary at the Drake University, DeaMores, Iowa, points out the following things of interest:
Stenography, and Business English should be placed in the curricular curriculum.
As part of the University curriculum Miss Beyer suggests a two year course in secretarial training, corresponding to a course in commerce and
The salary is not equal to the teacher's at the start but there is a greater chance to advance.
The salary is better than the teachers because it is on a twelve month and not a ten month basis.
The stenographer should have an agreeable personality, quick judgment, patience, organizing ability and tact
by applying to ten large universities, that is if she is well trained technically. There should be one offer from that number.
Present training for stenography may be obtained at any good business college at an approximate cost of $100.00.
Bertha Sellardise, A. B. 1912, a stenographer in Lawrence offers these help:
English, French and Spanish will be good courses to include as a preparation for this work.
The number of openings is increasing.
SCHOLARSHIP
Strange indeed is it that suddenly the boom of the scholarship bell tolls over the gay, frivolous surface of the campus life, with a piercing, rending dive into every realm of the university body. It came with a shock. Through three months of so-called army life, hidden under the guise of an S. A. T. C. cagnomen and another month of supposedly real college life has the seemingly major portion of the student body wasted its time with a resulting neglect of studies. In fact has the university had the air any time this year that a university is primarily and fundamentally an institution of learning? No! The seeming need that study is an absolute prerequisite to a successful college life has not been impressed. It should be impressed and will be impressed no doubt in the future. As to the cause for this seeming lack of the recognition of the original, primeval purpose of a college, there are several things to be considered. To a certain extent college activities have been pushed perhaps to a little extreme. They have their place, but that place is not above scholarship. Get your studies and then fill in time with activities and work. Don't assume the success-break attitude of "getting by." The man who is satisfied in college with merely getting by in his studies or slipping one over on the professor will do the same in business and his place in the hall of success will be marked with a crepe.

When McCormack Received Less
The announcement that the receipts of a recent recital by John McCormack in St. Louis, exceeded $12,000, recalls the interesting fact that the tenor, beginning his career in that city fifteen years ago, received $48.50 a week for singing in the Irish Village at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. Thus the financial returns from one night's concerts were less than fifty times what McCormack was able to earn in a week in 1904. After severing relations with the Irish Village, McCormack went to Italy to study, and won his first fame in opera at Covent Garden, London—Detroit News.

Indians Down Before Fast Schmelzer Five With Score of 50-16
Scrappy First Half Gave Lead to Haskell But Last in Second
The Kansas City Scholmelzers basketball team continued their brilliant record Saturday night on the Haskell court when they defeated the Indians by a score of 51-16. Haskell fought hard during the first half and held the Kansas City basketeers to a close score, Davis, the Haskell center made two long shots from mid-court and kept his team in the running, while Hilton Singer and McEnroe counted three field goals even for the Scholmelzers. The half ended with the count 20-12 against Haskell.
Singer and Hauserman started the second period with an avalanche of field goals and the Indians were soon left far behind. Haskell scored only two goals from the field in the second half while the Schmelzers were counting fifteen. Singer and Hauserman were the outstanding stars of the game with nine field goals each, and the floor work of Captain Debernardi of the Kansas City quintet was a feature. Davis and Captain McLemore played the best games for Haskell. "Fat" Nelson, K. U. basketball captain in 1917, played well at guard for the Schmelzers.

W. O. Hamilton Resigns Job As Acting Head Of Physical Education
Will Devote Whole Time to Coaching and Managing Athletics
Department Without Head
Loss of $10,000 Caused by Lack of Student and Faculty Support
General lack of interest and failure of the students and faculty to support athletic events caused a loss of more than $10,000 to the athletic department of the University of Kansas during the last two years, according to a statement by W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics, today.
Manager Hamilton also announced that he had definitely withdrawn as acting head of the department of physical education at the University and that in the future he intended to spend his entire time looking after the athletic management and coaching. Manager Hamilton's withdrawal as acting head of the department of physical education leaves the dorton school as a head, as Dr. James Naismith, head of the department, is doing work in France on a leave of absence for the duration of the war.
ATHLETICS UNDER HANDICAP "The department of athletics has been working under serious handicap since the declaration of war," Manager Hamiton said. "The three regular coaches, in addition to Dr. James Naismith, entered the service at the beginning of hostilities so that an elephant's job was thrown upon his shoulders. In addition the changeable decisions of the University Senate caused a general chase in the athletic and physical educational organizations. To be concrete the Senate changed its decision twelve times on the same matter during the last year.
ATHLETICS UNDER HANDICAP
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS TUESDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 25, 1910.
"Conditions in the department have simply been deplorable, but on the other hand, bright prospects for athletics are beginning to loom up." Potys' Clark, assistant football, basketball, and baseball coach, writes from Coblenz, Germany, that he will be back just as soon as he can get out of the service. All the coaches are in the service on leaves of absence for the duration of the war, and should be reporting for coaching duty soon."
"Prospects for a championship football eleven next year have never been so promising in the history of the game here," Manager Hamilton said, "while the return of Marshall Haddock to the track squad in a few days will boost the Crimson and Blue chances for a winning team 100 per cent." Haddock hails from Kansas City. It's city pride, but the Missouri Valley. An abundance of good freshmen basketball and baseball material this year also insures strong Crimson and Blue teams in these two sports next year.
FOOTBALL HOPES GOOD
ran-Hellenic Smoker To Be Wednesday Night
The men's annual Pan-Hellenic Smoker will be at 8 o'clock Wednesday night at Fraternal Aid Hall. The six organizations to put on stunts will be Kappa Sigma, Phi Gamma Delta, Beta Theta Pi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Phi Kappa Pai, and Acacia. Because of the earnest desire of the pan-Hellenic to cut down expenses, in accord with the University Senate's policy, no refreshments will be served.
Jayhawkers at "Coney Island"
The initial performance of "A Day at Coney Island," Monday night at the Bowersock, featured a number of University of Kansas men and women. Among those taking prominent parts were, Dorothea Engel and chorus in the curtain raiser, "If You Only Hnd My Disposition." Julia Smith was assisted by Craig Kennedy, Marruevet Young and Mrs. Nelle De Hart Weaver led choruses, Charlotte Carrie and Eloise McNutt also featured in a patriotic chorus. The performance will be repeated tonight.
Try-Outs for Chorus Wednesday
Try-outs for a third chorus for the annual K. U. Follies will be given en in the gymnasium Wednesday afternoon at 5:30 o'clock. Eight women will be picked for this third chorus.
Secretarial Training Course Urged for K. U
University Alumna's Experience Proves the Value of College Instruction
"I desire to emphasize the importance of placing a two-year course in secretarial training in the curriculum of the University of Kansas. This would be a study similar to a course in commerce and finance or business administration," wrote Miss Llynn Beyer in answer to one of her questions that was sent out by the vocational department of the University.
Miss Beyer was graduated from the University of Kansas in 1913 with her major in English. Three months after leaving college she became the secretary of the President of Drake University, Des Moines, Iowa.
In her letter she says: "I believe secretarial work pays better than teaching because it is on a 12-month basis instead of one ten months.
"A liberal art course with as much English as possible, and any study that trains one to think quickly is more effective in executive responsibility," she continues.
"Tact, quick judgment, patience, organizing ability and agreeable personality are personal qualifications that a secretary should have."
Miss Beyer offers to give added in formation to one any desired facts.

President Wilson Will fight at home for the League of Nations. Before a large audience in Boston the President pictured the old world fighting with desperation and expectation for nothing better in the end than it had before. He pictured America entering the lists with a new purpose—freedom of mankind. The old world had caught the new vision and art treaty of peace drama on any other side of the world, nothing more than a modern scrap of paper, he said. The present peace unless guaranteed by the united forces of the civilized world would not stand a generation," said the President.
"Any man who thinks that America will take part in giving the world any such rebuff and disappointment does not know America. I invite him to test the sentiment of the nation," continued the President.
At another point Mr. Wilson said "If the great hope of the World League of Nations is a disappointment, for my part I would wish never to have had America play any part in this attempt to emancipate the world." The Greatest thing that I have to report to you is that this great country of ours is trusted throughout the world.
"I find that in loving America have joined the majority of my fellows men throughout the world."

The Kansas House spent most on Monday afternoon discussing the speed of motor cars on public highways and in cities and villages. The debate came up on a bill which would limit the number of motor cars and this was the only amendment to the old law, which fixed the speed limit at forty miles an hour.
Not A Single measure has been enacted by the Kansas Legislature so far with the exception of the ratification of the national prohibition amendment and most of them of minor importance have been signed by the governor.
Journalists To Play Headliners On Program For Third Annual Jazz
Cubs and Stars to Score Origina Beats for University's Entertainment
All details for the Third Annual Journalism Jazz to be given March 7 in Robinson Gymnasium are now being carefully worked out. Plans formulated at a meeting of the Jazz committee last week arranged for clever arrangements and distinct decorations. Stunts to be given between dances were also planned.
A complete program of the music Haley will play was received this morning by Fred Rigby, manager of the Jazz. According to Haley the selections listed are the latest Jazz dance hits from the East, and while the majority of the music will contain a number of the old K. U. favorites to favor the encores. The personnel of music is as follows:
No. 2. "I'm Satisfied To Step
Aside."
No. 1—"Johnny's In Town."
No. 3. "Every Day Will Be Sunda;
When The Town Goes Dry."
No. 4- "King Tiger Blues"
No. 5- "My Chocolate Soldier Sammy Boy."
No. 11. —! Don't Want It, You Can Have It."
No. 10—"Oriental."
No. 6—"Minnie, Shimmie For Me," No. 7—"Salvation Lassie."
No. 8—"Arabian Nights.'
No. 12. "How'ya Gonna Keep 'em
Down On the Farm."
No 13—"You'll Find Old Dixie-Lane In France."
No. 14—"That Tumbled Down Shack In Athole."
No. 15—"Me-ow."

The Circle Francaise will meet Wednesday, February 25, at 4:30 o'clock, in room 306 Fraser hall.
Announcements
No. 16—"Everbody Shimmies Now."
A picked quartet of artists will compose the music makers who will enrapture K. U. dancer lovers between the hours of nine and one the evening of the Jazz. Haley himself will direct the music, while Beverence Wilson will introduce voice, jazzface violin, saxophone and jazzy sounds on their respective instruments.
"I have heard a number of people express their disappointment because Haley has been advertised for recent parties, but has failed to show up in person at the last minute," said Riehig upon being asked if Haley or a substitute would play at the jazz, and was shocked by her involvement in the Journalism Jazz can rely upon dancing to music by no other than D. Ambert himself."
The Freshman basketball team will meet at the Squires Studio Wednesday afternoon at 4:15 to have their picture taken for the Jayhawker. Everybody welcome.
The manager stated further that little things which would add to the comfort of the dancers were not being favorite. "For instance, we have made arrangements to have the floor of the gymnasium thoroughly cleaned and scrubbed, and then make fit for dancing by a liberal coat of boric acid. This will put the floor in first class condition and make dancing on the gym floor a pleasure rather than a drag."
Dorothea Spinney, the well known English dramatist, pleased a Lawrence audience last night with the presentation of three short plays.
The first, "The Traveling Man," by Lady Gregory, a little miracle play based upon Irish traditions. Second, "A Maker of Dreams," by Oliphant Down, a fanciful poetic play; and third, "Rosalind," by J. M. Barrie, a rollicking modern comedy featuring a middle-aged actress who "loves to be middle-aged." It is a story full of humor that only Barrie can write. Miss Spinney will make one more appearance in Lawrence. Next Thursday evening she will present Shakespeare's "Hamlet." She will leave Friday to fill a number of engagements in Ohio and New Orleans

More Money Needed If Rosedale Hospital Is to Live—Dr. Sudle
Does Not Favor Changing Location of School of Medicine
"The present location of the School of Medicine in Rosedeal is as good as any that can be found in the metropolitan area," Dr. Mervin Sudler, head of the State Medical College at Rosedeal said this morning when asked about the proposed change in the location of the School of Medicine from Rosedeal.
"If the Rossead School of Medicine is improved," continued Doctor Sudler, "it should be done so that conditions in the future will be provided for. Plenty of land should be one of the first things obtained.
"We cannot keep the Rosedead Hospital alive and well managed if it is not efficiently equipped," said Dr. Jill Brown, the state medical college at Rosedead.
He continued to explain the situation at the college, saying, "We have asked for an appropriation of $200-000 to use in building a new hospital which is really very necessary. The buildings that are now in use need improvement. The present hospital and dispensary are better than some of the other buildings. They are both fire proof and quite well constructed, but need a greater amount of equipment.
"The state is supporting every other educational school in Kansas but it is not willing to give the needed money to one of the most important institutions, that being the medical school at Rosedale.
"There are twenty-eight states that have medical schools. In attendance among these Kansas ranks ninth. All of these twenty-eight states support hospitals to care for the sick in the state. They provide free beds and care for surgical cases that are sent to them. Kansas has one hospital, yet it is not so arranged so that it can care for the patients that are sent to it. Without free beds a state hospital cannot exercise its functions."
"No other branch in the professional line has developed so rapidly as has the medical profession. No course is in enormous need for good builders."
The Bell Memorial Hospital was given to the state by Dr. S. B. Bell with the understanding it should be operated as a state hospital and adjunct to the medical school. If the site is located in one of the buildings and ground of the Bell hospital would return to the heirs of Doctor Bell.
Edmund Vance Cook, Poet,
To Speak Here Thursday
Edmund Wance Cooke, poet and philosopher, will give a lecture open to the public, in Fraser Hall, 4 o'clock Thursday.
Mr. Cooke is a well known writer and those who have read his poems will be eager to hear the man himself. Besides being a poet Mr. Cooke has had twenty years of platform experience.
"Cooke has a straight-from-the-shoulder style that carries weight by its very simplicity, yet in no way detracts from the poetic beauty of his writings." The people and the people read the things he writes," said William Allen White.
Prof. Denesmore Alter of the Astronomy Department received his commission as a major in the Reserve Corps of the Coast Artillery from Washington today. This will interfere in no way, said Professor Denesmore, in his present notion but makes him subject to call in case of emergency.

R.O.T.C. May Establish Coast Artillery Unit Here
Opportunity Will be Offered to Receive Reserve Commissions
Special request for information on the demand among the students in the University for establishing a coast artillery unit of the R. O. T. C. here is requested in a letter recently received from the War Department.
During the war, the coast artillery was handicapped by the fact that it was necessary to appoint many men as officers whose only knowledge of trigonometry or of engineering was received in three months' special training. The coast artillery corps, contrary to general opinion, mans all guns larger than 6-inch. It mans the largerrench mortars and the anti-aircraft rifles. Men with engineering and mathematical training are needed as much in this corps as in the engineering corps.
Men in a coast artillery unit of the S. O. T. C, will be transported to the coast this summer and given six weeks' practice in the use of the big guns.
Plain Tales From the Hill
A student taking astronomy is figuring on rooming with a man who will take ornithology next quarter. "By doing that I can get a room at half price as he will be leaving at night when I am coming in from my observations," said the sophomore.
The University now has a scavenger. A spotted dog has been going the rounds of the tables in the library and eating the gum left there by the freshmen women.
Miss Cyra Sweet had a little accident in the play at the Bowersock last night when she lost part of her refinery. To keep the standard of the play she will allow the same slip tonight as it was the making of the score.
A psychology professor and his wife were attending a lecture and the speaker was holding the audience breathless when the woman said, "Say, I know what I will do with that rice. I'll use it with-" and then she noticed the confusion she had caused and ceased her speech.
The Sigma Chis have been congratulating Webb Wilson on his love making ability and especially in his work on the stage as Lathorio. Webb smiles and says, "Well, follows, fusing up to all of that refinery in the play and learning to like the highly scented perfume of the stage may give me the ability to go out and get a real heirness after I graduated."
"Say, what's the name of that fraternity on Tennessee Street that starts with Beta?" said a fresh running to his club breathlessly.
"Beta Theta Pi or Phi Beta Pi"
offered one of the boarders.
"I don't know which but I have just
picked and want to write the folks," he
says.
Wagstaff Still Hauling
Ammunition for A. E. F.
Richard "Dick" Wagstaff, with the Army of Occupation in Germany, is now stationed with the Division Munitions Officers located at Gindorf, according to information received in Lawrence. He says his duties consist in conveying ammunition, checking dumps and fighting cooties.
"The Americans seem to be going right along preparing to continue the war," said Mr. Wagstaff, "even though it would be next to impossible for the Germans to keep on fighting. The Germans are still as boastful and arrogant as ever, and boost the kaiser as if they thought they had won the war."
Mr. Wagstaff does not believe that the 80th Division will be home before late fall and he is looking forward to being in the University next winter Corporal Wagstaff was in the University in 1917, and went to Camp Foster about a year ago. He is a member of the 314 Ammunition Train
Letters Awarded Soon
Letters for football and basketball will be made at close of basketball season. "The athletic board expects to meet within a few days to make the awards," said Coach Hamilton. Several members of the athletic board are not in college at the present time and their places had to be filled before any action could be taken.
Men in S.A.T.C. Unit Will Get Subsistence From October 1 To 7
Figured on Proposed Basis Men
Would Receive About
$15,000 Less
Men Entitled to Refund
Considerable surprise and disaussaction has been expressed by men at the University who were in the S. A.T. C. last fall because they are to receive, according to information given out from the Chancellor's office last week, a refund for board from October to October 7 only, and not from October 1 to the date the companies moved into barracks.
"Matter of Subsistence Question Between University and Men," Says Capt. Hatch
Figureed on the proposed basis, the men will receive about $10,000 to $15,000 less. Each man who was inducted on October 1 would be refunded for six days at seventy-five cents a day or a total of only $4.50 for board. The Navy did not move in until November 6.
"The Naval Welfare Committee is still investigating," said Warren Blazier, chairman, today, "and we hope that the Navy will settle a settlement from the University."
MEN ASSURED OF PAY
When the 1,500 men of Section A,
S. A, T. C., were discharged December
21, they left with the assurance that
they would be reimbursed by the
University. A memorandum to com-
mander was issued from headquarters December 16, by order of Walter A. Hitch, paragraph one of which reads:
"Inducted men of Section A are entitled to refund from the University for the period from the date of their induction up to the time they were actually furnished quarters and raions. Company Commanders are directed to give this information to their commands and to instruct the men to report any issues that occur which they claim this refund. Certificates therefore are being prepared for execution by men entitled to this refund."
In a letter to Company Commanders dated December 19, Karl Klooz chief clerk of the University business office, wrote in part:
"It is entirely a matter between the University and the men," said Captain Hatch Tuesday. "I had no authority to tell the University what to advise that settlement for subsistence be made in the fairest way possible."
"I am sending you herewith blank statements which are to be handed to each member of your company. This statement is for the purpose of reimbursing anyone in the S. A. T. C. who may have paid out of his own funds or quarterers from the date of his induction until he moved into the barracks."
The purpose of the memorandum, according to Captain Hatch, was to obtain accurate statements from the men as to the amount of refund to which they are entitled. The claims made, however, are at variance with the number of men who were supposed to have eaten at the barracks during October, as shown by the mess sergeant's report.
ACCURATE STATEMENTS DESIRED
"October 7 was taken as the dividing date," said Karl Klooz, "because we had to draw the line somewhere. And on that date 1243 men were fed, while only 1220 men had been inducted into the S. A. T. C."
MEN USED FRATERNITIES
On account of the influenza epidemic and delay in finishing all of the buildings for occupancy, the barracks were not available and the facilities for feeding the men were inadequate until late in October. Many students were therefore compelled, it is said, to board and room in private or fraternity houses for several weeks. And they did this, they say, because of the request by the authorities to thus cooperate in relieving the situation.
Among the fraternity houses which kept a table for some time after October 1 are: Phi Kappa Psi, Phi Gamma Delta,igma Chi Sigma, Algebra Alpha Epilon, Delta Tau Delta, Kappa Sigma and Phi Kappa.
Pi Kappa Alpha announces the pledging of Henry Widmer, c'21, of Parsons.

The Daly Kansan aims to picture the undergraduates to go for further than merely printing the news from their university; they need the vasty holds, to play no fancy role; be clean; to be cheerful; to be on-tarmouth; to be unassuming; to have ground problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the University.
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1919.
Prosperity and Advancement had just driven into Lawrence.
"We wish to go to the University of Kansas," they said.
POLITICS AND TORYISM
"Well then you'd better walk," answered the Truthful Stude. "The roads on the Hill are so bad your car would get stuck sure, and the street cars are in the habit of jumping the track."
The Tory mind, which once was such a factor in national politics, was thoroughly committed to the idea that for efficiency in government we must call upon private individuals, actuated by a desire for great financial gain. Recent developments in the University have revealed that individuals showing characteristics of such a mind are present on Mount Oread.
Remarks have been made in public gatherings and in private that only days when student graft was notorious were students provided with the kind of parties they desired.
Such blind, perverted insinuations that graft is necessary for obtaining best results from student activities do more against securing student government than any foolish and impracticable rulings the Senate may endeary to enforce. The holding and voicing of such ideas, if such were general among all students, would constitute irrefutable arguments that the students of the University of Kansas are not capable or worthy of having a part in their own government.
Expressions of such sentiments, however, come from the smallest minority. Student graft can never come back any more than many vices in national politics can come back. The reason is because student sentiment is against it and it is for this reason that the students believe themselves capable of having a voice in their own control.
The demand for popular government is not actuated by greed and desire of individual gain. The demand of the majority, we believe, is not for greatly higher priced University affairs and activities. And it is most emphatically not for extravagance.
The great reason for the struggle against Senate control is for the principle that the students themselves are fitted for and worthy of having a voice in their own government, and to keep the Senate out of affairs in which it is not needed and for which it has shown itself most incapable.
By advocating the principles of Toryism the students can never prove themselves worthy of their own rights.
A CHEAP POLICY
With the Bell Memorial Hospital condemned by the head of the medical department as "nothing but a shack," and with many young men and women going to other schools of medicine because facilities are not provided in Kansas, the cheap John politicians of the state may now look back upon their works with complacency and self-satisfaction.
The chief objections of the cheap johns, it would seem, are that Kansas does not need a medical school and that Kansas men and women should not be educated in medicine. As a result of such beliefs the School of Medicine of the State University is a "shack" inadequate for teaching purposes and provided with no free beds—a condition surpassed by many hospitals even in poorest Mexico.
Probably the greatest cause for the present condition of Bell Memorial Hospital is that the budget of $400,000 asked for two years ago, was practically cut out by Fred Knapp, state auditor. Only large appropriations by the present legislature can save the School of Medicine.
Such conditions of the state schools of a commonwealth which boasts of its wealth, generosity, and educational institutions cannot fail to bring the blush of shame to citizens really interested in the state's prosperity. Nearly every neighboring state has provided hospitals with hundreds of free beds. The hospital at Rosedate is without a single free bed.
Furthermore, as Doctor Bohan suggested, the facilities of Bell Memorial Hospital, as the state medical school, constitute an injustice to the students who are giving their time and effort to to study of medicine. Kansas should recognize the talent of her youth and the debt of humanity to the profession of medicine by building a great state medical school and, abandoning cheap john policies of statesmanship.
ON A NEW PLAN
The history department of Columbia may seem to be putting the cart before the horse when it starts students with twentieth century history and works back to the study of earlier periods. But the plan has a definite advantage. The purpose of studying history has been said to be to analyze past events with an eye to understanding present happenings and probably forecasting the future. As a means to enable one to pick out past events that lead to the interpretation of present problems, a preliminary study of these present problems doubtless is valuable.
SILVER CHEVRONS
The papers have had a prolonged case of fidgets over the silver chevrons issued recently to service men whose duty was done in this country and not abroad. It comes back to whether the public has any real idea of what the stay-at-homes did. The information has been rather amply spread abroad, but, of course, it may not have soaked in. This may or may not prove to be the last war of our times. If it is, then the service men stationed here made possible our share in winning it, and are entitled to all the credit that goes to the devisers of far-flung plans and to the builders of strong foundations. If it is not, then the service men on this side of the Atlantic have fortified us for years to come against the danger of being unable to play our part effectively in the next war. Thanks to them, we now know exactly how to plan, locate, and build any sort of plane factory, and to plane factory to a school for army cooks; how to estimate for, buy, make and move each and all of the 100,000 or 200,000 separate sorts of things that a modern army has to move; to raise and handle man, and so on and so on. The mind reels in trying to imagine the vast masses of type-written memoranda, photographs, blue prints, and other documents which record all these practical details of how to save our nation's life in time of peril. The United States plans no wars, harries no man's cattie, and grudges no one his own, but if the time ever comes again when Bryan rhetorical million freeman have to spring to arms, they will know how We owe that to the wearers of the silver chevrons—Collier's.

Discoverer of Helium Refutes Senate Report On Location of Gas
Professor Cady Asserts Kansas is Rich in Sources of
Helium Gas
The testimony that helium gas is found only in Oklahoma and Texas given by Col. William E. Gilmore before the Senate military affairs subcommittee, Saturday, was strongly rejected as a doctoral dissertation of chemistry, who first discovered helium gas, and who made the later investigations possible.
"Kansas also contains sources of helium gas which yield gas that is richer in helium than much of that in Oklahoma and Texas," said Doctor Bauer. The states are found in Canada and in some parts of Europe in small quantities.
Colonel Gilmore, who urged immediate Congressional action to enable the government to acquire these deposits of helium gas, told the senators how the army expected that the use of helium gas, which is non-combustible would revolutionize warfare in the use of balloons. He said that the foreign governments would try to obtain the gas lands.
"I think that it would be wise for the United Stated to obtain control of these sources of helium, and that the action should be extended to cover the gases in Kansas as well as in Oklahoma and Texas. If is probable that some action may be taken soon, and that the United States should adopt this stage to the United States to acquire these fields of gas that are rich in helium."
"The foreign governments know all about the hellum both in Europe and America," continued Doctor Cady. "They have used our methods of investigation and they have published their results widely."
Non-Resident Students Do Not Evade K. U. Fees
In answer to Colonel Glilmore's assertion that the discovery of the gas was accidental, resulting from complaints by consumers that they were being sold gas that would not burn, and that this came at a time when such equipment was in need of such gas for inflating aircraft. Professor Cadv said;
More Than 400 in University Come from Homes Outside of Kansas
"The discovery was not accidental, but was made in a deliberate attempt to find what was present in a sample of natural gas from Dexter, Kansas that would not burn. We went about the investigation with the expectation that helium would be found in the gas and we found it. It was not done at a time when the War Department was in need of it for inflating aircraft. It was done eleven years before the United States entered the war. During the year or two following the discovery of helium in this sample, we made a survey of all the natural gas developed in this country and in Canada, and we determined the quantity of helium in each sample.
University students may be short of funds, but they are not so hard-up they try to evade the enrollment fee of $10 when they are residents of other states, the registrar's office affirms. The total registration of non-resident students in the University is 440; of resident students, 2,861. These figures include the S. A. T. C. in this school.
All students enrolling give the names and addresses of their parent, so that reports of scholastic standing may be sent to them. If they give their own addresses as Lawrence, when their parents live outside the state, the matter is checked up and they are obliged to pay the extra ten dollars. Few instances of this sort have occurred.

If a man or woman is of age, and can prove that he is self-supporting, he can reside wherever he desires. He can call himself a resident of Lawrence or any other town in Kansas, and he does not have to pay the Umi-10, even though his parents or guardians may happen to live in Missouri.
The clerks who collect the various fees for the University are of the opinion that none of the students are trying to beat the state out of money, and that even if they wanted to, it would be practically impossible.

College Credits Asked For Work in Orchestra
"The University could not have a symphony orchestra in the strictest sense of the term," said Dean Butler of the School of Fine Arts today. "But there is but one reason why we can not have an orchestra to play the primitive symphonies of Beethoven, Hayden and Mozart; that reason is the fact that credit is not given the members toward an A.B. degree.
"We have plenty of the string instruments but what we lack is some men to play the wind instruments which are virtually impossible for women to play. In practically all the colleges of the country college credit is given to members of orchestras. We have a splendid director in Professor Kendrie, and the prospects are bright if the faculty will decide that they give will give a small amount of credit. Unless credit is given for this work, men will not come to practice for they haven't time to waste. Credit is now given to members of the School of Fine Arts."

Johnston Perfects Plan To Improve Relations
Between Students of Electrical Engineering and Their Instructors
A unique plan for bringing the students of electrical engineering into closer and more harmonious relations with their instructors, and a plan which will enable the head of the department to know the quality of school work being done, has just been worked out by Prof. F. Ellis Johnson.
"The idea is not," said Professor Johnson, "to duplicate the work of the regular adviser, but to tactfully promote confidence and good fellowship mind." To each instruction in the department the following letter is being sent;
"We take this means to acquaint you personally with the purpose of this department to call in each student in electrical engineering at intervals for a friendly conference. It is our desire that for these conferences we may be posted not only with the student's standing in his different courses at the time, but also with his instructor's estimate of him in a broader and more personal way. It is our hope not merely to spur the laggard, but to encourage the hard worker as well and, if possible, to tactfully promote confidence and good fellowship all round—both within this department and toward the individual instructors with whom the men work."
With this letter are sent blanks, each with the name of the student and the course, requesting: "Will you please give us on the back of this slip your estimate of his present standing, together with any statement that will help us make our interview with him more profitable."
Andre Fribourg Balks AtQuadrupleInterview
It is a lively life, being a celebrity with reporters on your trail, according to M. Andre Fribourg, who digressed from his lecture Friday to the 2014 lecture of certain St. Paul "journalsist," Translated, the story runs about like this:
In St. Paul, Monsieur Friborg was ushered into his hotel room, where he noticed two telephones on the table. But all unsuspecting, he proceeded to make himself at home. He put his hat down and was slipping an arm out of the sleeve of his coat, when telephone number one interrupted.
"Who can be calling me?" thought monsieur as he grasped the receiver. The St. Paul Silence wished to know, according to the man at the end of the line, what the eminent Frenchman thought of the city. As he had been in the city less than half an hour the question was somewhat difficult, but he was ready to do his best, when the second telephone rang. "It was a lady's voice," said Monsieur Fribourg. "The voice of a lady journalist, who wanted to know what I could say of the President Wilson. I stood with one sleeve on and one sleeve off, and talked about the city of St. Paul to one telephone, and about the President Wilson to the other. But suddenly some one opened the door of my room without knocking. It was another journalist, who wanted an interview. What should I do? It was useless to try to discuss three different subjects with three different reporters all at the same time. So, still with one sleeve on and one sleeve off, I hung up both recipients and walked boldly out of my room, past the hotel proprietor who was leading in a fourth journalist." The life of the celebrity, is—difficile.
School of Fine Arts To Be in Ad Building
"We are very crowded in our present location," said the dean. "We have more than two hundred students in eleven rooms which were originally meant for living rooms rather than class rooms. Then, too, our 'pupils have classes on the Hill about half the time and it keeps them running up and down the hill several times a day more than the average student, which is very disagreeable to say the least."
The School of Fine Artas intends to occupy the west wing of the new Administration Building by the opening of the summer session, according to information from Dean Butler this morning.

Lawrence yesterday.
Jayhawkerinfrance Arrives On Campus
The official interpreter is Corp. Earl L. Burns, with the Topека field hospital company. In apology for the paper, which remains no apology, he says to say:
The editor of the Kansas Day publication was Sergt. W. J. Studer, K. U. man with Company M. He was assisted by W. Y. Morgan, former lieutenant governor of Kansas, now a "Y" worker with the 35th division, and Sergt. Fred Henny, a well known newspaper man of Hutchinson. The printers who got out the paper are Corp. George F. Martin, of Wichita, and Prvt. Frank R. Elkstro.
"But it looks better than we thought it would. If the paper does not please you, reason with yourself a minute. It is not an easy task to set type in a print shop which has not been running for four years. We have damned ourselves and made around the cup and wished many times that we were back home."
The four-page, four-column publication is full of interesting news of the division, and particularly the 137th regiment, which contains Company M. One headline refers to a review of the Jayhawker regiment by General Bullard, in which he made the remark:

Jayhawkers Prepared For Aggie Invasion Thursday and Friday
Manhattan Team is Leading Conference but Kansas Has Hit its Stride
With but two days left in which to prepare for the invasion of the Kansas Aggies Thursday and Friday, Coach Hamilton's rejuvenated basketball is putting in hard licks in Robinson's gymnasium and expects to give the Manhattan aggregation the battle of their lives.
The Kansas team returned Sunday from their successful Eastern trip in excellent condition, and the men are anxious to battle with the Agyles in the return engagement. The Manhattan team succeeded in winning a pair of games from Kansas on their home court two weeks ago, the first by a margin of only three points. Since then the Jayhawkers have been traveling at a fast clip and they piled up 130 points against a total of 113 by their opponents in Columbia and St. Louis.
Albaugh the Aggies are leading the Valley conference race and have an excellent chance to win the title, they have never taken a basketball series from K. U. on the Lawrence court, and the Jayhawker quintet does not mean to have their record spoiled this week.
It is certain that the lineup used by Coach Hamilton against the Missouri teams is the strongest combination he has had together this year, and with the men going as they were in the East, the remaining games on the schedule will be interesting, to say the least. Bunn was at his best at forward in the series against Washington, when he caged thirteen field goals in the two games. Bennett also showed that he has the making of a good forward by most of those players Matthews chipped in with eight field goals. As a stationary guard, Dutch Lonborg is playing a nifty game and Bunger and Hinds, Aggie forwards, will do well if they shoot many short goals.
Ed Mason is continuing to play the same steady game that has characterized his work all season, and his goal shooting is improving. Miller is in good shape and can be used in a forward position if you get into the game only once in the Eastern series, during the second game with the Tigers.
Intra-Mural Basketball Will Begin Wednesday
The first round of the intra-mural basketball tournament will be played in the Gynasium Wednesday night. Entries for this year's tournament are Acoth, Alpha Chi Omega, Alpha Xi Delta, Brush League, Kappa Paula, Phi Alpha Twelfth District, Kappa Alpha Theta, and W. S. G. A.
Most of the second round of the tournament will also be played Wednesday night. The games will be played in 6-minute thirds, and the thirds will be played alternately. The Alpha Chi Omega - Acoth game will start promptly at 7 o'clock and the Brush-Kappa Phi game after the first third of the Alpha Chi Acoth game. The Gamma Phi Beta-Twelfth District game will begin at 7:30, and the Kappa Theta- W. S. G. A. game will be alternated with it.
Because of the uneven number of entries, byes were drawn by all but four of the teams. The Brush League will play Kappa Phi and Pbeta Phi is to play Gamma Phi Beta in the first round. Pbeta Phi, however, has not been out for practice and will forfeit to Gamma Phi Beta.

Capt. D.E.Ackers,e'16 Will Receive Honors For Bravery In Action
Mentioned for Service as Bat talion Scout and Intelli gence Officer
Capt. D. E. Ackers, e"16, has been recommended for the Distinguished Service Cross and the Croix de Guerre for bravery in action and service as an intelligence officer. Captain Ackers went to the first officers' training camp at Fort Riley from the University and was sent to France with the first detachment of officers from the training camps in September, 1917. He was attached to the 16th Infantry and saw heavy fighting in the winter and spring. He was mentioned in dispatches for bravery in action in the summer. He received his commission in October after Chauneut Thierry and later was promoted to captain. He was transferred to the intelligence service, serving first as regimental and now as division intelligence officer.
The following letter was written to him by Major Thomas R. Gwenlock, on October 18, 1943.
Ho. 1st Division, American E. F.
Morton Company.
1st Division, American E.
Montabaur, Germany,
22 Jan., 1919.
Dear Captain Ackers:
I am writing this letter to express to you as best I can my thorough appreciation of your work in the First Draft and as a line officer and a staff officer.
As a platoon leader you always led your men most gallantly. As a Battalion Scout Officer you collected the most important and valuable information in the face of the most deadly enemy fire. As a Regimental Intelligence Officer you perfected one of the most perfect organizations in the American Army and at all times gave to this section information which enabled the Division commander to succeed in the attacks. Later, assistant agent, you bent your efforts to making this Section what it is today and mere words cannot express the high esteem in which you are held by tl who know you.
I consider that you are the best grounded Intelligence Officer in the Army. You have been through every phase of the work and in each phase you have succeeded in a big way. You have been recommended for the position of G-2 of a Division, which position you can successfully hold.
It is such men as yourself—fine types of American manhood—that have made it possible for our Army to enjoy its grand victory over the enemy. A conscientious, loyal and efficient officer and gentleman, you deserve the highest reward that the American public can give you.
I desire you to know that you have also been recommended by the Division Commander for the Distinguished Service Cross and the Croix de Guerre, which decorations you thoroughly deserve. I trust, I will be forthcoming soon.
With warmest regards, I am,
Faithfully yours

"All the pleasures of the famous Mardi Gras week at New Orleans are to be crowded into one small night this next Saturday," said Marjorie Rickard, president of the Circle Francis today.
"This institution, new to K. U., is sure to delight the students. Dancing, war exhibits, punch and judy shows, fish ponds, flower girls, confetti, and many other new and entertaining features, all combine to make the night merry."

The first part of the evening will be taken up in visiting the various booths, lotteries, and games of chance and skill. An exhibition dance by Pierrot and Pierette will be held, followed by a guessing contest as to the names of the dancers. Prizes will be awarded to the first three successful guessers. Then there will be exhibition dances, yama yama girls, clowns, flower girls, and fortune telling.
"After 10 o'clock dancing will be the order of the day. One of the best orchestras in town is promised by the management. Dances will be sold at five cents each. Refreshments will be available at any and all hours of the evening."
Practically all of the student organizations will be represented by booths and exhibits. The War exhibits will be under the charge of the W. S. G. A. The oriental exhibitions shown by the

$200,000 Appropriation For Rosedale Hospital Has Not Been Killed
Doctor Crumbine Denies Report That Senate and House Committees are Unfavorable
"The appropriation of $200,000 for Rosedale Hospital has not been eliminated," said Dr. S. J. Crumbine, Dean of the School of Medicine of the University of Kansas. "The report that the bill had been killed by the senate committee on Ways and Means is false as that body has not yet passed on the bill."
Action on the appropriation will probably be taken by both the Senate and the House Ways and Means Committees. The House Committee will meet Thursday night to consider the bill.
The removal of the school to a 7-acre tract in Kansas City, which has been suggested, is not looked on with favor here because the present buildings would have to be duplicated in the new location. Chancellor Strong said in expressing his opposition to the proposed change, "The School of Medicine is well located at Rosedale. It is one of the best clinical centers of the middle west. I can see no really good reason to remove it, and I can see some harm it might occasion. However, it is a matter for the State Board of Administration and the Legislature to decide, but I cannot believe that the plan will be met with much sympathy in these quarters."
Tickets for Dramatic Play
At Bowersock are Mailed
Music Will Be Furnished by Uni versity Orchestra; Costumes Will Come from New York
"Mail orders for 'Mrs. Bumpstead Leigh,' the Dramatic Club play to be presented at the Bowersock next Monday night, have been filled and the tickets were sent out this morning to those ordering them," Herman Hangen, manager of the play, said today.
"Dress rehearsal for the play will be held Thursday night. Regular practices have been hold, frequently and the cast promises to put on a finished production," said Coach Arthur MacMurray.
Plans are being made for music for the play by the University Orchestra. Part of the costumes of the actors will come from New York and are presumably on the way, according to the manager. A new stage has been built for property set up in the play, which shows a scene in a fashionable drawing room.
A trio from an Indiana family, a mother and two daughters, grown wealthy through the patent medicine establishment started by the dead father, assume the role of English aristocrats in order to enhance themselves socially. While mingling in American high society, the trio is found out, but by clever manipulations of the older sister, Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh, comes through smiling. Love plots are weaved throughout the play. Clever comedy speeches liven the action.
Date of Junior Prom
Is Set for April 18
"Chuck" Shoelfast, manager of the Junior Prom, announced today that Friday night, April 18, will be the night of the big party of the year.
“There will be two Kansas City orchestra,” said “Chuck.” “One orchestra of fourteen pieces will play upairts for the dances and the other will play during the serving of refreshments and for the singers.”
"The dance will probably be informal owing to the late date," continued "Chuck." "but we will have fun and everything that has been the usual trimmings of a formal party."

Captain Roberts Returns

Has Been in Charge of Ship ping All Engineers' Supplies to France
Capt. H. A. Roberts, who has been the officer in charge of shipping all engineer supplies to France from the port of New York, returned to the University Monday to resume his work as assistant professor of civil engineering.
Under the direction of Captain Roberts hundreds of tons of steel rails, locomotives, roofing paper, slaves, and other engineering equipment have been sent over. In September, 1917 when Captain Roberts took charge, 3,000 tons of supplies were being shipped monthly. In June, 1918, shortly before he left for overseas, 80,000 tons were shipped across.
"In the past the United States has had but little acquaintance with her neighbors in Europe, or, in fact, with nations on this continent, Mexico for example. The men of the American Expeditionary Forces have had an advantage over their opponents in my opinion they will be somewhat unwilling for the United States to be bound too closely with the European governments."
"In my opinion we should carefully consider the proposed plan before adopting it as it now stands. It seems that if we want to keep the United States altogether too much.
Captain Roberts has been in France for several months, during which time he visited practically all sections back of the lines. In speaking of the League of Nations, Tuesday, he said:
Washington Inspector Will Investigate Milk Situation in Lawrence
Plan for Pasteurizing Milk Advocated by Doctor He Wide
Ida Hyde
R. S. Smith, milk inspector from the Bureau of Agriculture in Washington, D. C., is in Lawrence for the study of studying the milk situation here.
"The milk situation in Lawrence has been almost as bad as the water situation," said Dr. Ida H. Hyde this morning. "An ordinance has been passed by the mayor and committee with the advice of the State Board of Health, which if carried out, will be all that is necessary. At present, the condition is very difficult; some of it has a large per centage of bacterin, some has not enough butter fat."
Dr. Hyde allocates a plan for the pasteurization of the milk, heating it at 145 degrees Fahrenheit for thirty minutes, to kill the bacteria. Each of the milk companies should establish a pasteurization plant or if the expense of this plan is too high, they should label it at which the different companies should take their milk for pasteurization, according to her plan.

Appointment Bureau Asks New Teachers to Enrol
All Students Seeking School Positions Should Appear at 121 Fraser
"Seniors who intend to teach should enroll at the appointment bureau, 121 Fraser Hall this week," said Prof. W. H. Johnson today. "I would be to the interest of all prospective teachers to have their credentials in file in the appointment office not later than March 1."
After enrollments are made at the appointment bureau the names of the prospective teachers are sent to their major department, minor department, School of Education, and the supervisors of teaching who give the applicant's ratings, according to the following heads: Native ability, knowledge of the subject, ability to express thoughts, efficiency in classroom teaching, faithfulness in performing duties, co-operation, physical vigor, personal appearance, qualities of leadership. These ratings are made by the departments in departmental meeting and these rating cards are shown to school boards and superintendents.
"All the students intending to teach should be enrolled by March 1, so that the blanks can be sent to the various departments at the same time." Professor Johnson said. "Up to the present time there have been eighty-three enrollments, but we expect 125 at least."
There have been quite a good many calls at the appointment bureau for teachers for next year. These calls are coming in earlier years. School boards seem to be eager to get in touch with teachers.
Snappy Snaps Of K.U. Just As It Really Is Will Win Jayhawker
Contest Will Close Tuesday and Promises Good Material, Says Hopfer
The Jayhawker Snapshot Context will close next Tuesday, when Otto Hopfer, manager of the Jayhawker snapshot section, will give a Jayhawker free to the person sending in the best picture or group of pictures of student life on the campus.
"The snapshot section will be the real, old 'humanistic series' of the annual, to use a high-brow phrase of an ultra-aesthetic and super-progressive squad of the College faculty." This from Marvin Harms, editor of the Jahyawkier, who said that O. Hopfer said it.
"The stiffness of the posed photograph, the self-consciousness of the borrowed evening clothes - for some fellows still insist in being 'tuk' in the soup and fish - all will be absent from the snapshot section," averre! Harmes "O. Hopfer slipped that info to me too. I am sure it is true artistry, but I will only visit the refreshing $^9$ naivete, the artclass artistry of the Jayhawk in his natural habit and habitat, romping as in his wont or want.
O. Hopfer assures me he is activated by a most laudable ambition. He wants to show K. U. a la natural, not with its pie a le mode manners on, but in its free and easy, working clothes, the K. U. we best know and love. Come across and help him, men and women, by sending in your snapshots. More real Jayhawkers will enjoy a good picture in the annual that is possible with the picture being reproduced anywhere else.
"The senior section is being made up now and all glosSES will be sent to the engravers Saturday. All seniors who have not turned in their glosSES should do so at once. The work on the annual cannot go on until they are ready to arrive and it is important to have them in sections finished at once.
"The freshman section has been arranged, and all freshmen who wish their pictures in the section should sign up at the Jayhawker office at once and also arrange for sitings If this section goes in at all, it must be rushed through at once. This year's Jayhawker probably will be the most complete of college annuals for every class will have a section. S. A. T. C. will have a large section, and the year's history of the University will be complete, with many pictures."
Woman's Panhellenic will exchange dinner guests Thursday evening.
Prof. Mac Murray Praises
Edmund Cooke's Talks
"Everybody in the University, should hear Edmund Vance Cooke Thursday afternoon," said Prof. Aral. MacMurdoch's department of public speaking today.
"I have had the pleasure of meeting him and have heard him on numerous occasions and I think it is an opportunity for the students of the University to hear the author of some of the best modern poetry."
The lecture will be open to the public, in the Chapel of Fraser Hall at 4 o'clock Thursday.
Plain Tales From the Hill
Selden Butcher, P20, was on his way to a law quiz when a black cat crossed his path recently. Butchen walked two blocks out of the way to avoid the cagt. When asked if he was wrong, Butcher said he had passed that quizz and believe me I will go around a block to avoid a black cat every time now."
All accounts asked for by the re-istrar last year were lost in the Pi Upsilon fire. The Phi Delta Theta fire came a little early this year but it is understood that several budgets and accounts were burned.
The sociology class was talking on communication when the professor asked, "How long can two men sit on a bench without starting a conversation?"
"Not very long," the student replied.
"How long can two women sit to together without talking?"
"It can't be done at all," was the second reply.
"How long can a strange man and woman sit together, without talkin-
"That all depends on the woman. answered the man who knew.
Herb Little, recently returned from Camp Zachary Taylor, thought there had been a great increase in colored students in the University until it was explained that "Col" in the student directory means College.
"Miss Jacobs, would you prefer to explain Croley's reasons for the failure of the initiative and referendum in Oregon as a means of majority rule, or have me read it?" inquired Professor Hellegen after looking over the interviews of his public opinion class Monday afternoon.
"O-ooh, read it!" replied Miss Jacobs who is fond of reading.
Although punning is the lowest form of wit, many professors appear to indulge frequently. One professor was looking over the paper of a student by the name of Short. "Well," remarked the instructor, "his name certainly agrees with his work."
Captain Haskins Visits Campus; Is Still In Army
Capt. C. A. Haskins, formerly associate professor of sanitary engineering at the University and engineer of the State Board of Health, was in Lawrence Monday on his way to Fort Leavenworth, where he was going in connection with the work of the Sanitary Corps.
Upon returning to Washington, where he has been stationed, Captain Haskins expects to obtain his discharge. He hopes to be back at the University within the next three weeks.

Men From University Want Representatives Elected By Students
Public Opinion Demands That Student Interest Committee Have Final Power
Interest Is Not Political
Many Students Think That in Present Form Committee Will Be Figurehead
The following are statements from members of the Student Council and from various interested students of the University:
The proposed system of the Student Interest Committee which will be composed of ten members from the Senate, five from the Student Council, and five from the W. S. G. A., has been the subject of much discussion. A large number of the students believe that the proposed system will not remedy matters, and that at least part of them should participate, should be elective from the student body at large. It is also the opinion of the students that this committee should have final power, and not act as an advisory body alone.
"I am in favor of nothing which will not give the proposed Student Senate Committee final authority. In taking this stand I think I am asking for no more than justice." Gail Williams, council representative from the College
"Unless final authority is given to a committee composed of students and faculty, the committee will be a mere figurehead as it is now from the first year of Tracy Conklin. Student Council representative from the School of Medicine.
"I am behind any plan which will give the students equal voice with the Senate in making final decisions regarding student affairs." Homer Eagles, Student Council representative from the School of Engineering.
"I think that the student members of this committee should not be wholly chosen from the Student Council and the Women's Student Government Association. Some of the members should be chosen at large from the University." John Kinkle, president of the Sophomore Class.
"I have been quoted as having said that student activities cannot be regulated with the absence of graft and that in advocating higher priced parties, the element of graft has been the controlling factor. On the contrary, students should own affairs with only such faculty supervision as is necessary to the discipline of the school, absolutely and unequivocally, without any thoughts

WEDNESDAY, FEB. 26, 1919.
A FEASIBLE PLAN
From the plan adopted by the joint meeting called by Chancellor Strong Saturday, whereby ten student members will be added to the present Student Interest Committee it would appear that the faculty of the University is keenly awake to the justice of student representation in their own government.
While the plan in its actual working may prove to be far from perfect, nevertheless we believe both students and faculty as a whole will recognize the spirit as good. The change from an absolute faculty government to one with student representation is so wide that many features must necessarily come gradually.
A committee represented by both faculty and students is to be commended as such representation is necessary in order to secure a wide point of view. The large number of persons on the committee seems likely to be a cause of much quibbling and delay, however, in spite of the need for many different opinions to be expressed.
The greatest weakness of all probably lies in the fact that the new joint committee will not be one of last resort. Instead, all its works must be approved by the Senate. It seems obvious that if such a committee is recognized by the University Senate it should be granted powers of final jurisdiction upon the subjects which are called to its attention. In its actual working if such proves to be a weakness the Senate should immediately grant full powers to the committee without its customary procrastination.
In spite of the present faults of the plan it seems to be as good a one as could be expected under such circumstances when no large number of either students or faculty holds the same view. We believe the Senate will be wise to put it into operation. If weak points come to the surface after the scheme is in action the necessity of changing it in minor details should be immediately recognized.
The late Mr. Barclycorn appears to have been greatly esteemed by newspaper poets. To date they have written about two hundred and fifty elegies bewailing his untimely end.
FEMININE HABILIMENTS
The heterogeneity of costumes which appear at University parties this year is something marvulous to behold. Every different feminine attire, excepting only the bungalow
apron and the bathing suit, may be seen.
No one is quite sure whether afternoon or evening dresses will be worn. The Lawrence telephone service is made even worse each Friday night by the two hundred women who call each other and confer on what to wear. And then they arrive at no decision.
The gorgeous party dress may be seen next a plain, dark afternoon dress. Radical women even appear in blue serge, just to show others that they don't think it's much of a party, anyway, and that it takes more than a date to make them exert themselves to the point of being adorned. Some try to get around the problem by wearing light afternoon frocks with long sleeves—a sort of compromise.
The ensemble effect is not exactly artistic. Some plan should be devised to remedy the uncertain notion University women have of what to wear when. If a party is supposed to be elaborate, we suggest that the managers stand at the door, and sternly order all women not in party clothes to march home and change their raiment. The same method might be used when the dance is strictly informal. These measures may at sight seem cruel, but such momentous problems demand austere remedies.
GETTING BY SOCIALLY
You may not be getting by socially and you may not be able to date at the leading sororities in the University, but if you stick to your studies your reward will come, even if not in social lines.
The real women in the University do not notice a freshman's dancing nearly as much as his personal appearance and bearing on the campus. They want a man to be a man at all times, in the classroom and elsewhere. They don't care especially for the fox trot wizards, nor past masters of parlor subtuferges.
Many a celebration of the social graces is the brunt of the jokes of his fellow classmates. Good dancers may make a hit socially while they are freshmen and then fall from their pinnacle when quiz week rolls around.
At graduation these men have accomplished little and they realize it too late. The women with whom they have danced cannot see them now—they are out for the real things of life and the old home town man steps in. The wise student gets nisi academic work first and learns to dance for recreation only.
FINDING THEM WORK
The same spirit of organization which got our country's strength in to the war is going to find work for every man discharged from military or naval service. The Council of National Defense, with its network of public and private agencies over the entire land, is co-operating to that end by the very practical method of hiring United States Employment Service. A special Bureau for Returning Soldiers and Sailors will be set up in every town and city. All other local bodies interested can pool their efforts through this agency, which will have at its disposal the machinery and the experience of the Employment Service officers. Gradual demobilization and gradual return from abroad will prevent the burden from becoming too heavy at any one time. Be sure to remember that all of the men themselves have relatives and friends (including former employers) who know just about where Tom and Joe can fit in, and are perfectly willing to help them.
The usual immigration of workers to the United States has been cut off for over four year, and our women have not gone into industry to any extent as their French and British sisters did, so the problem has its favorable aspects. Great needs must be met, nevertheless, and great plans are under way to accomplish what is necessary, but organizing for peace is easier than for war, since the losses of war are over. If you are interested get in touch through the local body that helped you do your war duty and find out what you can do to help the men now returning—Collier's

Mental Lapses
A NUT TO CRACK
Those who feel sure that a shorter working day (eight hours, six hours, or what not) must mean more leisure and a freer life should be interested in looking around the office-building sections of our town about nine of a week-day morning. The rush then in progress is really painful to observe. Perhaps the principal reason for it is that most of the younger generation have never been trained on a seven o'clock job, and the hours they are used to are, to their notion, rather hard hours just because they lack the contrast of things more difficult. Mark Twain was serious when he wrote of the government official whose last year he recruited his presence from half past twelve to a quarter past one every other Wednesday on the ground that it was impossible for him to hold it and arrange his lunch engagements! On the other hand, we have known men who could smoke an untroubled pipe, get down to the shop, swap the morning's news, and start labor on the blast of a seven o'clock whistle with every appearance of having all the spacious leisure that this life can afford. It all depends on how much you think of your job and of yourself—Collier's.

McCook Field Determined Change In University Colors In 1891
McCook Field was named after the late Colonel John J. McCook of New York. He belonged to the family of fighting McCooks, well known in the Civil War. In later years he was a prominent lawyer in the East.
In 1890 and 1891, much enthusiasm was aroused among the faculty and students over the buying of an athletic field for the University. Year after year Kansas had won the pennant on the football gridiron. A field at the corner of Massachusetts and Adams (now Fourteenth) Streets was used, but the owner always asked a big slice of the gate receipts.
MCCO KINETTE IN TENNESSEE
Two sites of ground were under consideration as being behind Onea Mount Oread, which was then a level strip of vacant lots, owned by Charles Robinson, a professor in the university.
MC COOK IN TENNESSEE
In the early part of 1891, complaints were made that three and one-half times as much money was appropriated by the Legislature for the state penitentiary as for the University. An unexpected benefactor, however, appeared, Colonel McCook. He was an interested observer of all sports and realized the need for a trustee to manage the trustees were planning to buy land for this purpose, he gave $1,500 to the cause.

A company has partnered with Professor Camiller, later Chancellor of the University of Nebraska as chairman. Many favored a location east of Mount Oread. The land was level, the price reasonable, and the
SOLD IT AT A BARGAIN
The Cornell ruling that every fraternity house shall have a faculty member looged in it is a pebble in the Greek-letter sea which will stir it to shore. Cornell used to be the frat paradise, having more of the brotherhoods than any other college. What have they been up to?
On Other Hills
The Smith College Relief Unit in France has cabled the headquarters of the War Service Board that it hopes to finish its work by August. Meanwhile it is "officially requested" by the French government to stay in France and carry on its work of reconstruction.
Syracuse University has a positively unenvy way of getting into the public eye. Probably no other institution in the country acquires so much undesirable publicity. First, Chancellor Day saying something that few persons can approve. Then it is an athletic affair that neither reads nor sounds well and now comes the faculty with the thoroughly Prussian decision that academic credit will be granted for war service only to such men as were fortunate enough to win commissions. So far as the Syracuse notion of war is concerned, the mere private, apparently, is nothing. All he did was most of the fighting and nearly all of the dying.
The mentality tests which were of no small help to the army in its efforts to gauge the capabilities of the drafted men who came to it, are now to be given to all students of the University of Illinois. Apparently many other colleges are going to have them taken in their talk of comparing the mentality of Illinois students with those of other institutions.
Instructor is Ill;
Class Still Meets
Did you ever hear of a class that would insist on meeting even though its instructor was absent? Strange things like that do happen. Despite the absence of the instructor, Prof. H. O. Kruse, class in scientific German has been meeting each day the last two weeks translating and assisting teams for the meetings. Professor Kruse is ill of inuenza at his home.
There are six men and one woman in the clash. The students all say that there never was another class like theirs and that it is all due to their instructor who has made the course so interesting for them. He never discusses grades they say, because he seems to take that each student is increased and the best he can. It is out of appreciation and love for their instructor that the class has continued its work during his absence.
The class sent a cyclamen plant to Professor Kruse last Thursday. He thanked them by writing a short poem in German. A copy of the verse was sent to each member. The poem described the scientific growth and
As the field slopeed considerably, toward the east, much grading and rolling was necessary before it could be used. Colonel McCook added a donation, almost equal to the first, and a grandstand, capable of seating 1,000 persons was erected in the northwest corner of the field.
car line on Tennessee Street connected it very conveniently with the business part of the city. The present site was finally decided upon, and named in honor of the donater. Governor Robinson nided the transaction by asking a price for the piece of ground far less than it was worth. This donation was made at commement exercises of 1891.
COLORS YELLOW AND BLUE
An interesting detail of the purchasing of McCook Field was the changing of the University colors. Previous to this time there had been colors from the original corn-yellow and sky-blue combination to crimson. Many looked upon the old colors as an imitation of the University of Michigan, while crimson might be taken for the colors of Harvard. Those favoring crimson prevailed. Colonel Cook, however, was a graduate of Yale, and he felt that the suggestion was unwise to substitute the Yale colors. This was not satisfactory, so the colors of Yale were united with those of Harvard, giving the present colors of crimson and blue. Colonel McCook expressed his pleasure, but declined to wear the colors as they were the colors of Pennsylvania the most hated rival of Yale.

"The class works three hours each afternoon," said Professor Cahill. "At the first of the course a different study was made each day, but now we are spending a week on each one, and really trying to finish the portraits carefully."
The comforting thing about this opportunity to make money is that the model does not necessarily have to be beautiful. "Any sort of person is a good study," said Professiona Calderon, who is also pretty, and others are not. Beauty is unessential, although we do prefer interesting faces."
The atmosphere of the portrait painting class is delightfully restful. The model sits quietly, and may even study at intervals. No one makes noise, but all areas are attractive. It's an easy way to enjoy twenty-five cents an hour.
Maxfield Parrish and Jules Guerin are the artists whose prints are on exhibit in the Administration Building this week. The Parrish prints are an interesting contrast to those of Guerin. Deep color, vividness, depth of tone make Parrish's work, while that of Guerin is softer, blended and more imaginative.

Former Kansan Writer Interviews Royalty In Buckingham Palace
Edwin Hullinger Tells of Luxurious Dinner Given in President's Honor
New Year's night in London and the dinner which King George gave for President Wilson come in the day's work of a newspaper man in London, according to Edwin W. Hullinger, a former member of the Daily Kansan Board, who is now with the United Press. In a recent letter he says:
New Year's Eve we had a table at the Waldorf, right on the brink of the bear pit. Of course the lighting effect was wonderful, the music good and the floor O. K. But I wished for an American girl because they dance very differently over here. And furthermore, English girls don't be led. They are accustomed to regular routine on the dance floor—one turn here, one turn there, a hop, skip and a jump, with never a variation in the world.
A few minutes before the zero hour we fought our way back from the dance floor and climbed up on our table. The lights went out at midnight and boy scouts went through the streets blowing their last all clear (two notes on the bugle, one low and one high). It was worse than a naughty rally when the lights came on again. In big electric letters 1918 blazed down upon us from the ceiling. The orchestra was bellowing out a mad harmony of drums, horns, piano and cymbals. In front of us a soldier tossed his sweetheart into the air, caught her as she rose and started parading up the floor carrying her on his shoulders. He didn't get far—the floor was packed solid. To the right and left couples were exchanging their New Year's kiss. Beside us on another table another couple were trying to one-step—over the salt cellars, the flowers and the silver. All this of course against a background of one continuous roar from about five hundred throats and an orchestra gone mad.
Then some one started "God Save the King," and everybody stiffened at attention. Next came the "Star Spangled Banner," and the "Marsalaise." Then we who were on the tops of the tables, we who were in the pit, and we who were elsewhere all took hold of hands and sang "Auld Lung Syne." It was a picture I shall never forget, everywhere in the house swaying, swinging hands, singing to one rhythm.
I've been pretty busy in the office, too, since the armistice. The last week in November I covered the surrender of the German submarines in the North Sea off Harwich. The first part of December I had two talks with Kerensky. Then through some friends I met General Mannerheim, regent of Finland, who was going through London on his way to climb up the thrones of Russia. He called the Prince formerly, the aide-de-camp of the former Czar. He in turn to Count Kokovtzeff, former Russian premier and he to several other Russians.
A little over a week ago I interview Short, chief secretary for Ire
and. Met Lloyd George in his dinnier room the day he entertained Wilson at Luncheon. He has one of the most winning personalities I have ever touched. The occasion was the unveiling of a painting of Washington which Lord Abermarle presented the government (no, the premier didn't ask me to the luncheon; I arrived after the eats were all gone). Wilson, of course, pulled the cheese cloth from the frame, and then we all gathered around when he told Washington stories. The next night I had a peek into the banquet room of Buckingham Palace, where the king was to give a feed for Wilson. This time I was too early for dinner, but it was the most wonderful room I have ever seen—a regular fairyland-like kind of a place, fulfilling in every particular all your childhood dreams of royal splendor. I had always fallen more or less for this "simple life stuff" the royal press agents are continually talking. When they said the king and queen lived in quiet retirement I had believed it, so I had likewise contended that all this fairy book stuff of gold forks and knives was there ancient history, but it wasn't so. There was an object on that table except the glaze that was not pure. Knives and forks, vases, with beautiful big clusters of poinsettias, salt bowls and pepper shakers, bread plates and fruit dishes—everything nothing but glistening heavy gold. A hundred candles flickered from their gold candlesticks in rows up and down the table. Another hundred were strung around the room in clusters half way up to the ceiling. Six immense glass chandeliers swung from the ceiling.
The throne platform was at one end of the room, the orchestra balcony, with pipe organ, at the other. The carpet was rich red. The wails were hung with wonderful tapestries and collections of gold. We had our collection, including the knives and forks, was started by our old friend, George III.) The woodwork was white, with threads of inlaid gold running through it.
Earl Potter, c'13. Edits Paper of 354th Infantry
"The First Call" Is Now Published Weekly in Lunebach.
The First Call, "dope sheet of the First Battalion, 354th Infantry of Occupation, A. E. F.", has been received by the department of journalism. The paper is edited by Earl Potter, Company D, who received his A.B. from this University in 1913, and is published in Lunebach, Germany, where the battalion is now stationed.
The First Call is a weekly periodical of modest size, containing four two columned pages. On the front page of the first edition is the introduction of the paper and its purpose and a columns of notes. The inside are the personal mention pages. Clippings from American papers about returned soldiers or interesting items of the regiment are on the last page.

War Exhibit at Museum;
Relics are from Verdun
Part of the Collection Includes A Parachute and Machine Gun
A very interesting collection of war relics has been sent to Dyche Museum by Corp. Harry Martin, son of T. H. Martin, who is assistant curator of the Museum. These relies were dug out of the trenches near Verdum and sent to the Museum at the request of the curators. It is essentially a war exhibit and not a collection of souvenirs.
The collection contains several helmets that were used by the Germans. One of these helmets is camouflaged to resemble the soil of France. The officers' helmets are of much finer quality than the helmets of the privates and are decorated with gilt emblems and post embellishments, but back a set of German buckles some of which are punctured by machine gun bullets of the German Army, and bear the words "Gott Mit Una."
The collection contains a complete set of chevrons and equallets of the Hun Army. Some of these chivrons evidently are made from goods stolen from the Americans because olive drab had never been used by the Germans and some of these chevrons are mounted on this American color.
chine Gun
The Museum also received a German helmet and skull from Lieut. Victor Householder formerly in the Museum. This helmet had the front shot away by shrapnel and was punctured in several places on the bulletins. The skull which is inside of the helmet shows the same marks that the helmet does.
Part of a German machine gun is on exhibit which was dug out of a trench just out side of Verdun. There are many other interesting religions in this collection including a parachute that the Huns used in spreading their propaganda and several expanding machine gun bullets.

Glee Club to Be Revived For K. U. Men Next Year
The Men's Glee Club was disrupted on account of the S. A. T. C. according to Dean Butler of the School of Fine Arts, and will not be resumed this year but he hopes to have a good glee club next fall.
"We have good talent in the University and we will undoubtedly have a fine club next year and we will help to make a few ties to other towns.
"I am sure if the University knew what a benefit the glee club and an orchestra would be to the university at large that they would not hesitate to grant credit for the work done. Orchestral or club glee club is some what you can ask, but what is gotten from other departments does no one any good but the one who gets the knowledge first hand.

Kansas Baseball Team Will Begin Indoor Work In Robinson Next Week
Most of Varsity Squad of Last Year and Return of Old Men Strengths Prospects
Candidates for battery positions on the Jayhawker baseball team will report for indoor practice in Robinson Gymnasium the first part of next week. Jay Bond, baseball coach announced today. The battery men will begin work taking easy workouts and tossing the ball around before he is in position by the time out practice begins. The entire Varsity squad will be called for indoor practice about two weeks before the work on McCook Field begins.
"respects are very good for a fas baseball team this year," said the Jay hayker coach. "Most of the Varsity squad of last year will be available and there are several men from the freshman nine of the no-no material." I see no reason why we should not have a real team."
The chances for a winner were increased greatly when "Dutch" Weltmer, catcher on the 1916 team, returned to school and enrolled in the School of Law. Weltmer is eligible and is coming out for baseball. He made a record on the 1916 team, when he caught every innning of the eighteen games played and broke up several of them with his timely hitting.
The return of Weltmer and the fact that the team already has one classy backstep in Johnny Bunn of last year's Varsity insures plenty of strength behind the plate. One of these men may be shifted to another position, as either is too valuable to be kept out of the game.
There is plenty of material in sight to make the pitching staff strong this year. Slawson is the only hurler from the 1918 Varsity in school but Harms, Marxon, Pierce and Harrison of Dutch Wedell's fresh nine are the most class pitchers in the team to make the pitching staff one of the strong points of the team. Harms will also be valuable at first base; as he is an excellent fielder.
The first and second base positions are left open because of the death of "Red" Cherry, 1918 first baseman, and the graduation of Bob Isenberger. Lashley, one of the stars of the freshman infield last year, should fit in well at second base although there is likely to be stiff competition for that position. "Stem" Foster will be back to cover the short field and "Dutch" Lonberg will probably play third base again this year.
One of the troubles may be the securing of enough games to fill out the schedule, but Coach Bond will match contests with Kansas State Conference teams and other fast nines if competition in the Missouri Valley is lacking. It is practically certain that Ames will be the only school in the Valley to have a nine, and the Jayhawkers already have six games
In the outfield, there will be Wardie Weltmer, Bert Smith, Frank Oyster and Guy Keeler from Coach Bond's 1918 nine and Judkins and Desmond and two or three others from the freshmen.

matched with the Iowaans, three here and three at Ames. The Emporia Normal and St. Mary's College always have a schedule, but not all will be inbed on the schedule.
Dutch Wedell, Freshman baseball coach believes the Varsity should clean up in baseball this year. "There is no reason why baseball should not have a big year here," he said. "The game is due to be more popular this year than ever before and we are going to have a good team. The interest and co-operation of the students all we need."

Continued from page 10
"I am interested in this matter, not from a political standpoint, but rather for the good of the school. We are men and women, not children, and we want to be treated in a manner that is fitting to men and women." Kelsey Matthews, Student Council representative from the School of Engineering.
"I believe that if the proposed committee be adopted as the way to settle student affairs satisfactorily, that it have at least final power to act for as a more advisory body to the Senate, it would have little effect. Also it is my belief that part of the students' report will be elective from the students at large." Marvin Harms, Student Council representative from the College.
"Representing the School of Law, I believe I am safe in saying that the entire body of our school does not favor a plan that will not give the Student-Senate Committee the final voice in the matters of student affairs. There should be no appeal from the decisions of this committee and likewise its actions should not be subject to Senate control." Enos E. Hook, Student Council representative from the School of Law.
"If I had my way about it, I would have this committee composed entirely of students. If we don't know how to govern ourselves we have no business in this University." Arthur "Dutch" Lonberg, Student Council representative from the College and president of the Junior class.
"I believe that the woman's representation is too large proportionate to their numbers in normal times. In my opinion the proposed plan not only will not serve the students' best interest, but it also positions the committee positions political plums." Dorman O'Leary, Captain of the Track team.
"An elective body which only advises the University Senate is powerless and ineffective. Any committee representing student and faculty opinion must have the right of final decision to accomplish any real results." "Stem" Foster, Captain of the Football team.

Jayhawkers Resting For Coming Contests With Aggies' Quinter
Lineup That Smashed Missour
Opposition Will Be
Used Again
When the Aggie basketball team comes to Lawrence Thursday for a two-game series, the Jayhawkers will be ready for them. The Kansas quintet has practically finished its preparation for the invasion of the Manhattan basketteers, and there will be no practice tonight. Four hard games with Missouri and Washington-all the workouts the Kansans all the workout they needed, and they are in excellent shape for the coming series.
The Lawrence team will go to Baldwin next month to compete in the District tournament there. The winner of the tournament will compete in the state tournament here March 28-29.
The team promises to exhibit the same form to basketball followers here that they showed on the road trip, as the Varsity team, with Matt thew and Lonborg absent from the lineup, smothered the freshman team, under a big score in Monday night's practice.
Coach Hamilton will probably use the same lineup against the Aggies that he used against the Missouri teams last week.

The faculty team has been practicing several times a week for the last four or five weeks and has developed some fine team work. They lost one game with the junior team which won the 1919 inter-class tournament, by one point. The score was 13 to 12. Also the junior team won their final game in the inter-class tournament from the sophomore team, in fifth place, moves by only one point. Thus the well matched and it will probably be a tosup on who wins the game Thursday night.
The game will be open to University students.

W.S.G.A. Will Meet With Men's Council To Fix Point System
Value of Student Activities at University to be Estimated in Points
There will be a joint meeting of committees from the W. S. G. A, and the Men's Student Council at 7 o'clock tonight for the purpose of work out a point system for men and women students. The purpose of the system is to have a uniform method of estimating the value of activities participated in by students.
As it has been, the two organizations have used systems they have worked out separately, and they are *knew* not uniform. This has mothen some difficulty in checking up cropn
Alight is taking part as different to Phil. It will be the two or Thur'ations. At the request of Professor Thurnau, chairman of the eligibility committee, the uniform system will be worked out.
"This is a matter for the students themselves to work out," said Professor, Thurnau, "as they alone can estimate the time taken by the different activities."
activities.
The committee appointed from the W. S. G. A has already revised its old plan by which senior students will be allowed fifty points, the junior forty points, the sophomores thirty points, and the freshmen twenty points. A value of a certain number of points is given to each activity, and the total number of points is not allowed to exceed the amount set by the committee. The purpose of the system is to regulate the amount of activities participated in by any one student.

The Kansas Wants Reporter a Senate Meetings; Seniors Longer Commencement
Senate Will Consider Student Petitions Next
Among the things the students want are regular convocations, as shown by the action of the Senior class in mass meeting. Their petition is signed by a majority of the class. Hoping that the University Senate will agree to a three-day Commencement this year, the members of this year's graduating class are asking that the program be made longer than last year.
The petitions, which students have presented will be brought before the University Senate at the regular meeting March 4. The last two meetings have been extra sessions to discuss the R, O, T, C., and no time was given to bring up the pending petitions.
A petition from the University Daily Kansan asks that it be allowed a representative to sit at the Senate meeting in order that the actions of that body may be accurately given to the students through the paper.
Asking that they be given representation in the Student Interests Committee, the Men's Student Council petitioned for one member on the committee. Agitation for equal representation has come up since this petition was presented.

"The committee of students and faculty which will be recommended to the Senate cannot have final powers according to the constitution of the University," said Chancellor Frank Strong today. "The Board of Administration holds the Senate responsible for the government of the University. The Senate cannot turn over any of this power to a committee. It has never done it for any of its own committees and will hardly make an exception of this joint committee of students and faculty."
"The power of this committee cannot be final according to the University constitution," said Lucene Spencer, president of the Woman's Student Government Association. "The students should not be unreasonable and go after something they can never get. As to the election of the members of this committee from the school at large, the councils are supposed to be represented by them, not it is the fault of the students themselves. Representatives from the councils ought to be representatives from the students at large."
"The five representatives from the councils are virtually from the school it large since the councils are representative bodies," said Carol Martin, secretary of the senior class.
George O. Foster Believes Deficit Owing to Fewer Students and Impaired Expenses
War Had Much to do With Loss on Athletics
and Increased Expenses
Lack of student enthusiasm is not the only reason for the large deficit according to Register George O; Foster. The fact of the last two years being war years, with a corresponding lack of men, and increased expenses, both of which contributed largely to this result.
The deficit for the last two years, due largely to the curtailment of football receipts, and to the increased losses on the basketball games, which are ordinarily carried by football profits.
"This year cannot be taken as a criterion," Mr. Foster said. "This year, owing to the S. A. T. C., and influenza epidemic, no student enterprise tickets were sold. This generally brings in from $2,000 to $5,000 and eight per cent of this goes to the Men's Athletic Association."
The sale of student enterprise tickets in 1916-17 amounted to nearly $3,300. In 1917-18 the same sale amounted to $1,340. There were no student enterprise tickets sold this year, owing to uncertainty of games.
The gross receipts of the Nebraska football game here in the fall of 1917 amounted to more than $10,000. The Aggie game in the early part of the season brought in nearly $1,200. The gross receipts of the Aggie game here last Thanksgiving, the big game of the season, were $1,141.65.
The basketball games here have been poorly attended, the two Missouri games which were played here this year bring in only $203. Reports from Columbia are that at the two games that K. U. played there last week, receipts amounted to more than $600.

Katherine Duffield Attended Conferences At Chicago Last Week
Esther Moore and Lillian Cottrell Represented University at Convention
Miss Katherine Duffield returned Wednesday from New York and Chicago where she has been doing special work for the Y. W. C. A. She was in New York, January 21 to February 12 as a special worker in the Student Department of the National Board. Her work was intimately concerned with vocational work for women students.
The plan had been for the National Board, in connection with the twelve vocational bureaus, to get out information which was to be distributed among the 700 colleges with which the association works in this country. Little information was a available from these bureaus because of the time which resulted when the bureaus were taken over by the government. Plans had to be changed because this information was not forthcoming.
"We got people recognized as authorities in their profession to write short folders on the standard professions for women." Miss Duffield said. The original list included medicine, nursing, teaching law, agriculture, church work in this country, foreign missionary work, business, journalism and social service. Among the people obtained to write these folders are: Mrs. Edith Shatto King, head of the Social Workers' Exchange of New York; Prof. Laura Wilde of Mt. Holykoe; Dr. Ellen C. Potter, Miss Dorothy Straus, and Miss Eliza Butler of New York; and Prof. Sophie Chandler Hart of Wellesley College.
The pamphlets will be distributed to 700 colleges through local associations. With these pamphlets there will be another folder giving a list of all occupational bureaus in this country.
While in Chicago Miss Duffield attended two Y. W. C. A. conferences. The first, the Staff conference, was attended by the Student Committee of the National Board, and all field and local secretaries. The purpose of this conference was to formulate guidelines for Y. W. C. A. help students to meet changed conditions in the student world at this time.
The purpose of the student conference, which met February 20 to February 23, was to find out what the students themselves considered the essentials in the new world merging out of the war and how these essentials could be established. Every afternoon during the conference, by the students for the discussion of these two questions, Eather Moore of the University of Kansas led one of these meetings.
Two summaries were presented in one of the final meetings of the conference, the summary of the discussions of the students and a summary of the decisions reached by the faculty and the National Student Staff. Copies of both summaries will be sent out to every local campus and to the president of the National Pan-Hellenic.
The representatives from the University of Kansas were Esther Moore and Lillian Cottrell. Forty-three states were represented. There were two representatives from France and one from Canada.
Four Hundred at Greek Smoker
About 400 Greeks attended the annual Pan-Hellenic Smoker Wednes day night in F. A. U. Hall. Several members of the faculty attended
The first stunt, by Phi Gamma Delta, was a burlesque scene of the Eldridge House. Beta Theta Pim named its act the "Passing Show." Phi Kappa Pim presented, "Seeing Lawrence." Kappa Sigma presented a 2-act farce and Sigma Alpha Episa a meeting of the fraternity "Omega Omega." The members of the Pan-Hellenic Smoken Committee are Kappa Sigma, chairman, Elbert Smith and Fred Stringfellow; Sigma Nu, Merl Clift and Marvin Harmas; Alpha Tau Omega, Phillip Dall
Col. P. F. Walker arrived in Lawrence Wednesday evening, having just received his discharge at Camp Dodge. Colonel Walker will resume his position as Dean of the School of Engineering.
Cady Will Lecture
To Graduate Club
The Graduate Club will meet at o'clock Friday evening February 28 1919, in Room 305 Chemistry Building. Doctor Cady, acting head of the Chemistry department will lecture on and give a demonstration of liquid air. The club has extended an invitation to the student body to attend the demonstration who would find the demonstration both interesting and instructive.
The meeting is one of a series of meetings of instruction and entertainment being conducted by the club. This will be the first scientific lecture of the series, others will follow. Miss Johnson's program committee, is planning more meetings of this nature and expect to invite the student body to them.
Plain Tales From the Hill
The solitary engineers are no longer hooted as "the peopleeless engineers" every time they pass Green Hall now.
The Phi Gam freshmen are no longer seen at the library although the Kappas attend regularly.
Although sorority calls have been made for years some of the first year Greeks still have the habit of asking, "Is this your first year on the Hill?"
"I is the T. N. E. a social fraternity?" asked May B. Good.
"Well, not exactly, but they do get real sociable at times," replied U. R. Fickle.
Two freshmen were driving by the Sig Alpha house when one asked, "What is that, a country club?"
"No, Hamilton uses that house for his training table. All of the athletes I have met say they live there," the second replied.
Jean Carter was sitting between two young women in a class room. A book slid from the desk of one of the young women. He picked it up, it was "The Republic of Plato." He had hard eyes and young voice when he dropped a book. He picked it up, it was "Feeling the Family."
"It takes all kinds of people to make a world" he philosophied.
Several years ago a class in bacteriology selected the south platform on the roof of Fraser Hall for extensive experiments, but the birds interfered with the work to such an extent that a scare crow was placed upon the platform. The experiments are now forgotten but the scare crow remains, and though crippled and broken, the scare crow is slowing by but never catching up with the speed of its rival the anemometer on the north platform.

Theta Sigma Phi Initiates
Entomologists Wanted
Theta Sigma Phi Initiates
Theta Sigma Phi, honorary journalism sorority, held initiation for Hazel Ernst and Lucile McNaughton, both graduate students, at Miss Corbin's rooms in Fraser Hall, Wednesday at 4:30 o'clock. A social hour was held after the initiation services.
Requests for three entomologists both men and women, to fill positions paying salaries from $1,200 to $1,700, have come in to the entomology department. One request came from the University of Pennsylvania, one from Manhattan and one for a woman from the Health Laboratory inington. The department is up for three positions.
hington. The department is unable to meet these demands.
Senior Poem Try-out
Lewis Potuook, chairman of the senior invitation committee has received three poems for approval. "If there is any one on the Hill who thinks he can write poetry," he said, "let him write a poem and give it to the committee of the committee. The best one will be used on the senior invitations."
The seniors this year wish to have a poem written by a student on the Hill, preferably a senior. In former years the poem has been written by some member of the faculty or some one who is not a student on the Hill.
$100,000 Item In Bill For K. U. Power Plant To Be Reported Today
Total of Items in General Bills Only Slightly Larger Than Two Years Ago
An appropriation of $100,000 for the rebuilding and equipment of the power plant and $1,000 for the merchant's short course are new features for K. U. in the terms of the general bill approved by the Kansas Senate Ways and Means Committee and to be reported today in the form of a committee bill. The total amount allowed the University of Kansas is $1,744,200 as compared to $1,524,000 two years ago.
The larger portion of the increase is for salaries and maintenance expense. Only the building that is absolutely essential will be allowed on account of the high cost of material and labor. K. U. is to be allowed $2,230 for repairs, permanent improvements, and the completion of the third floor of the Administration building.
The grand total to be allowed to the state educational institutions is $4,997,920, an increase of $191,240 over two years ago. K. U. is to have the largest appropriation with K. S. C. second with a budget of $169,060, 250. The agriculture college will have a new $10,000 engineering building.
In view of the fact that the senate has passed all appropriation bills as recommended by the ways and means committee so far, it is probable that this budget bill will pass without any decided changes.
The committee has visited the University several times during the past few weeks in order to get information as to appropriation needs. The amounts agreed upon by this committee are below the requests made by those in position to know, and the auditor is responsible for the auditor. The University request was for $2,691,066, and the auditor's estimate was for $1,955,230.
The detailed appropriations asked for the University of Kansas are as follows:
1920 1921
Salaries and wages. $575,000 $575,000
New teachers ... 28,000 28,000
Maintenance, including Rosedale ... 191,500

Repairs and perma-n e n t improvements, completion third floor, middle section, main building ... 2,230

Plant ... 100,000 100,000
Another bill was introduced yesterday that allows for the reappropriation fees collected by state institutions.
Students Called to Account
Several students were brought before the faculty disciplinary committee Tuesday. Another meeting will be held today to consider the cases of students found at Wednesday night dances and those causing unnecessary disturbances near sorority houses.

"Barracks may go soon," John M. Shen reports, although the bids submitted have not been acted upon. And yet old North College, which was to have "gone soon" many months ago, still remains.
JAYHAWK JOKES IN GERMANY
Over on German soil they are printing jokes in good old United States, jokes about eats and coodies and "K-K-K P.", all in the same vein as the Pee Wee Kansas and the Sour Owl and the Jayhawk itself. They're real Kansas jokes and real Kansas news, in the "Dope Sheet of the First Battalion of the Three Hundred and Fifty-fourth Infantry in the Army of Occupation," published by a former student of the University of Kansas, who is a private over there somewhere near the Rhine.
It is a situation that the much-caricatured gentleman with the devilish moustaches would scarcely appreciate When the American sense of humor gets loose along his own little river, it is time for him to renounce all hope of ever being worshiped again even in secret, by his former subjects. The sense of humor would have killed kaiserism long ago, if it had been known in the waterland.
MENTAL TESTS
Now that the end of the war has released hundreds of thousands of men needing employment, modern business efficiency is demanding a new way of sorting out workers. Business is no longer content with judging men by the old fashioned method of a long period of daily contact. It is demanding some way to sort men as precisely and nicely as apples are sorted in the fall.
In the army psychological tests were given recruits to determine their general intelligence and to find as nearly as possible the branches of the service for which they were fit. Now that testing people has become of more or less widespread use, it seems possible that psychological tests may be introduced in our colleges and schools of higher education.
Education needs a swift and effective sorting device as badly as business does. The examination system has proved unsuccessful in many cases. A way of turning out a standardized product has not yet been found.
Under the present system many students, still underclassmen, have no idea of what profession they intend to pursue. If psychological tests prove successful, by referring to a card index on file at the administrative offices of the University, they could easily and quickly tell if they had best study to become engineers, school teachers, journalists, preachers, or members of any other profession.
The danger in modern psychological tests lies in the fact that many brilliant minds cannot respond with their fullest capacity under certain external conditions. In a space of time which they know to be limited many nervous persons of high intelligence are unable to answer even the most nonsensical appearing questions asked in a psychological test.
Universities and colleges will probably be slow to adopt a method which yet has to be proved. In the army the tests did well generally, but selection for the best army service is different than the selection of a college career. Brilliant minds cannot accurately be found by two or three hours' testing and the use of the science of psychology in this matter is yet to be definitely proved.
It seems rather paradoxical that the University students began their reconstructive movement regarding student government under what was termed boleshevik methods, when bolsoheism itself is the very contradiction of reconstruction.
THE KID BROTHER
Did you ever have that younger brother up for a week end visit? Probably you have not even thought of it this year, with football almost ruined by the S. A. T. C. that so efficiently interfered with everything. Now, though, you have time to introduce a little originality into life with perfect safety.
Of course, you do not correspond regularly with the lad. He is too busy with high school affairs to be bothered. But he would be thrilled if you should ask him down.
It would not be hard to know what to do with him he got in. Lead him along Massachusetts Street, stop at three, or four of your favorite food-parlors, thus giving him a wonderful impression at first—and incidentally a little power to go up Fourteenth. The first thing he will want to see is the Hill itself, and you can begin with gym or the museum, according to his tastes.
As he would be awed by Spooner, unless he found the worn-out copy of Life, it would be wise not to try to show him how we study. But he would like the engineering building and the shops. Show him the Laws in action, and when he goes home he can tell the gang that he saw the exact place where the effigy of the Senate went up in smoke, all except its shoes. Of course, the field and Potter's and the river and Haskell will appeal to him.
But what he will enjoy most is the time at the club or the house where the fellows sing and scrap, and where he will really feel the warm-hearted fellowship of the University. It will not bother the men to have him around. They will show him a good time, just because they can't help it, and then because that he will advertise them well in his own crowd at home. The boosting he will do for Kansas when he gets home will be worth a lot.
And then, it's all over, it wil notta do you good to see him again.
Next month representative high school students from every part of the state will be here for the annual state high school basketball tournament given by the athletic department and it is up to the University students and faculty to entertain and make the visitors feel welcome. The athletes, who will be here for the tournament, are considered leaders in their respective schools and the degree of welcome shown them will largely determine whether or not they will become boosters for the University.
MAKE NEW BOOSTERS
Every high school student who attends the tournament is a prospective University student. Plan now to do your duty in making the visit agreeable.

THE FACULTY GYM CLASS
Not satisfied with confining the sports-for-all program to the formation of intercollege, interclass, interfraternity and interboarding-club basketball leagues for undergraduates, Director St. John has reorganized the league and interclass is being revived by introducing a faculty basketball league.
Forty members of the faculty attented the class, which is under the personal direction of Director St. John, this week. Four teams—Agriculture, Engineering, Arts-Education and Commerce-Law—are already in the few leagues, and two others will probably come in.
Much can be said for the new venture in the way of athletics for the faculty. There is, of course, the physical benefit, the exercise, to be derived from the class work and the recreation from the competitive games of volleyball and basketball. Conducting the work of University offices and instructing classes are confining at best, and exercise is not the most regular part of the day's routine. But aside from the physical good, there is the mixing with men. Probably most of these men know one another, but there is no place like the gymnasium to actually get chummy.
And the Armory is a good building for which to strike up a feeling. The place, with its Varsity athletic contests, social functions and gymnasium classes is a rather familiar part of every student's life, and the professors should be just as interested. There is no surer sign of advancing age than for a person to admit that he has no further interest in anything that is going on around the Gymnasium, the velical center of campus life.

From a very humble beginning, employing only two men, a wooden press and a case or two of type, the Oxford University Press has grown to be one of the biggest institutions in existence, employing about seven hundred persons. Its equipment includes sixty modern printing machines and prospective authors can be offered appropriate type for more than 50 languages. The most noteworthy work of this press is the publication of the famous Oxford English Dictionary, the first part of which was issued in 1888 and the last, it is hoped, to be issued in three or four years.

TEETOTALISM AND TEA-TIPPING
Between 1900 and 1918 the annual consumption of tea rose from 115, 000,000 to 151, 000,000 pounds, an Increase of $ \frac{3}{4} $ per cent. per annum, or 4,000,000 pounds.
Estimating the average individual consumption of tea-drinkers to be two-fifths of an ounce per diem, the total number of tea-drinkers in the United States is about 16,000,000, an army of addicts whose number is increased annually by the addition of 425,000 new recruits.
SUITING YOU is my business
Search for the cause of this surprisingly rapid increase of tea-drinkers has led to the discovery that the increase of tea-drinking has parallelled the decrease of alcoholic liquors. It appears, indeed, that the American people are exchanging alcohol for tea. The question at once arises. Will the nation gain or lose by swapping rum-drinking for tea-tipling?
Of course the answer must depend upon the amount consumed in both cases. A little tea would of course be less damaging than much alcohol. On the other hand, a little alcohol would be less harmful than much tea. In equal quantities, tea is decidedly worse than beer. The amount of poison in a pint of strong tea is greater than that in an equal amount of beer, not by weight, but in physiologic effect. A man could drink without showing evidence of intoxication more pints of beer than of strong tea.
We shall not be satisfied to trade off whisky intemperance for tea-tipling. Drug-addication of all sorts is to be frowned upon and suppress A ten drunkard is a nervous wreck—neurasthenic, unsettled, depresed, sleepless, inefficient, and haunted by morbid fears—Good Health.

Scientific Drawing Course
K. U. Graduate is Now Insect Delineator at Colorado Agricultural College
"Patience in attending the fine details, exactness, willingness to accept criticism of work and to profit thereby, are the real secrets of successful work in Entomology," said Mriam N. Ayasan, an associate professor who she answered one of the questionnaires sent out by the vocational department.
Miss Palmer is now insect delimiter and also translator of Entomology work in foreign languages in the department of Entomology at the Colorado State Agricultural College in Ft. Collins, Colorado. She entered this work immediately upon leaving college, where she will provide recommendation and advice of Prof. S. J. Hunter of the University of Kansas.
In her letter she says, "Scientific drawing on biological lines should be placed in the curriculum of the University of Kansas. This is one of the courses that is really needed."
"I would suggest these courses as preparation for work in Entomology. Botany, Zoology, Scientific Drawing and Lettering, Latin, Greek, German and French."
Life Insurance and Modern Economic Reforms are two new courses which will be offered by the department of economics next quarter. These courses aim to send senior courses which have not been offered for a number of years.
Economics Department Will Offer New Courses
"There would have been more economic courses on the schedule if there were more instructors," said one of the economic professors. "All the courses for next quarter are offered for the first time this spring and they will have classes in economic I. The course in accounting is to be continued."
The other courses offered by the department are; 3 Economic and Financial History of the United States, 3 hours; 6 European Industry and Commerce, 2 hours; 51 Banking, 2 hours; 61 Public Finance, 3 hours; 69 Business Law, 3 hours; 81 Markets and Marketing, 3 hours.

Students in Home Administration Course Will Actually "Keep House"
Home Economics Women Will Have Practice Home
A practice home for students taking the course in Home Administration is to be a special feature in the department of Home Economics next quarter. it will probably consist of a few rooms at 101 Louisiana Street, and the course requires a certain length of time and carry on the housekeeping in a scientific way.
“Besides the regular administration of a home, we intend to study special problems, such as heating, lighting, and plumbing,” said Miss Elizabeth Sprague, professor in the Home Economics department. “A woman is often left alone in the house. The students will be taught how to repair small damages in a house which the average housekeeper is helpless to remedy.”
This course is Home Administration will be open to students who have the pre-requisites in the Home Economics department. Courses open to students next quarter without any pre-requisites are Home Architecture, Home Decoration, and Food and Nutrition.
The schedule for the work of the third semester in the Home Economics department has been worked out and is posted on the bulletin board in the basement in Fraser Hall. It contains more advanced courses than have ever been offered in the department before.

William F. Fox, e13, was a visitor at the School of Engineering Tuesday.
Mr. Fox has just returned from government service at Washington where during the last year he designed a number of hangings for airplanes. He also formulated plans for three steel cranes which are now being built for use in the navy yards at Philadelphia, Norfolk, and New York. These cranes are unusual because of their size and lifting capacity. They are 200 feet high, have a maximum weight of 500 feet, and are capable of lifting 250 long tons. They are so designed that they may be used for lifting the entire turret from a battleship, fully mounted with sixteen-inch guns.
Before the war Mr. Fox was employed by the Sinclair Oil Company. He is now returning to the oil fields.

Valley Leadership In Balance in Game With Aggies Tonight

The Kansas Aggie basketball team will meet Coach Hamilton's rejuvenated Jayhawkers tonight in Robinson gymnasium in the first game of what promises to be the best series of the season.
The Aggies are in first place in the Valley race without a defeat on their record, and the Kansas five hopes to have the honor of being the first team in the Valley to beat the Manhattan aggregation. There is also the question of revenge, as the Aggies defeated the Jayhawkers several weeks ago in Manhattan, the first time by a score of 33-30.
LEADERSHIP IN DOUBT
If the Kansas quintet continues in the pace they set on the Eastern trip, the game tonight should be one of the hardest fought contests of the year. The Aggies look like the logical winners of the Valley championship but they will have to win from Kansas to retain the lead, and the Jayhawkers believe they will have their hands full.
It is certain that Coach Hamilton will start the same combination tonight that met with such success against the Missouri teams last week. John Bunn is playing the best game of his basketball career at forward and is being ably assisted by Bennett.
Miller is one of the most accurate goal shooters on the team and may get into the game at one of the forward positions. Captain Matthews will start at center and Mason and Lonborg will handle the defense. This combination of guards is improving with every game and Lonborg played brilliantly on the defense in the last four games.
AGGIFS' TEAMWORK C EVER
AGGIES' TRAMWORK C EVER
To face the Jayhawkers, Coach Clevenger of the Aggies undoubtedly has one of the fastest and smoothest working combinations in the Valley. In Bunger, a forward, he has one of the best goal shooters in the Valley when he is in good form. Bunger is said to be erratic, however Hinds, an assistant coach at last year and is a scrappy player.
Jennings from the 1981 Agile freshman team is a good floor man and a fair goal shooter, while Captain Johnny Clarke at guard is one of the main coats in the Clevenger offensive besides being a whirlwind at defense. Cowell, the other guard, is a steady player.

Annual K.C.A.C. Meet Postponed Until March 29
The date for the Annual Indoor K. S. A. C. meet may be changed to March 29, according to word received from Kansas City today by Coach W. G. Hamilton. The meet was scheduled to take place in Convention Hall March 8, but will probably be changed to later in the month. March 29 is the last day of the Kansas High School Basketball tournament in Robinson Gymnasium, but that fact will not hinder the track team from going to Kansas City, according to Coach Hamilton, as only the finals will be played in the gym that night.
Achoth Team Defeated Chi Omegas, Upsetting All Intra-mural Dope
Kappa Phi Wins from Brush League and W. S. G. A. Loses to Thetas
The Achoh team upset all the dope among intra-mural teams by defeating the Alpha Chi Omega team 7 to 6 in the second round of the women's intra-mural basketball tournament, which was played in Robinson Gymnasium Wednesday night.
"Remember it last year? Don't miss it this time!"
JOURNALISM JAZZ
Kappa Phi won from the Brush League 19 to 6, in the fastest and most evenly matched game of the tournament. Kappa Alpha Theta won an easy victory over the W. S. G. A. team by a 13 to 3 score.
In the Alpha Chi-Achoth game the Alpha Chi played a fast game but were crippled by a lack of experienced forwards. Irene Tihen made every point for the Alpha Chis and played a good game at forward, considering that her regular position is guard. Marion Howard at center was able to get the tip-off almost every time. The Achoth guards, Exxa Bennett and Romona Hood, played well in intercepting passes.
Marie Brown as forward starred for the Kappa Phis making six field goals and one free throw. Caryl Eiley covered her position at running center well and Marie Shacklee played her usual quick game at guard for the Kappa Phis. Wealthy Babcock and Marjorie座画, the Brush centers, covered their field well, and Rachel Bell played a good game at forward.
The W. S. G. A. team was able to hold the Theta tdas down to a comparatively small score, although they had scarcely any practice and Carol Martin was the only girl on the team who had been playing on a class team. The W. S. G. A. guards, Lucene Spencer and Mercedes Sullivan, neither of whom have been playing basketball this year in the class practices, held four field goals. Paul Deddleridge starred for Theta making four field goals and covering the court as jumping center. Helen Wagstaff covered the Theta guard field so well that the W. S. G. A. forwards made only one field goal.
The semi-finals between Achoth and the winners of the Alpha Xi-Kappa Phi game and between Theta and Gamma Phi will be played Monday afternoon at 5:30 o'clock. The finals will be Tuesday night at 7 o'clock.
Pi Beta Phi forfeited their game in the first round to Gamma Phi Beta and the Twelfth District forfeited their game to the Gamma Phis in the second round so that Gamma Phi is still in the race without having played a game.
The only other game of the second round which has not been played is the Kappa Phi-Alpha Xi Delta game, and it takes place Friday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock.

It's an awful war, isn't it?"
Lieutenant Srpoulh has had several chances to return to the United States, but is staying in the hope that he will be able to fly over France and into Germany before returning home. He has been in the aviation for over a year now, and from all reports has been covering the territory even faster than he did as a track man while a student in the University.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS FRIDAY AFTERNON, FEBRUARY 28, 1919.
Representative Frederick H. Gillett of Massachusetts was nominated on the first ballot Thursday night by the Republican conference as the party candidate for speaker in the next House of Representatives. The vote was 137 to 69. As the Republicans will have a majority in the next House, nomination was regarded by them as equivalent to an election.
President Wilson desires conclusion of a peace treaty as speedily as consistent with the great questions involved and, except for adjustments of territorial differences, he believes a great part of the work is approachable. He has also been known that he is firmly convinced that in no particular does any provision of the league charter conflict with the American constitution.

"It was sure good to get hold of "a 'Kansan' in France," said Stanton L. Smiley, who spent nine months with the 35th division "over there," and is now in Lawrence preparato- to entering the School of Law. "We must fight for our mighty places, once I found one in the bottom of a shell hole."
"Any man who was from Kansas was always good company. Company M was hiking in the Vosges mountains, when suddenly we ran across Tony James riding on a little mule The company halted and gave him a ride. He waded heavily by waving his hat, at which he nearly fell off his mule."
"Among the queerest sights I witnessed," continued Smiley, "as suddenly to happen upon a deserted wagon, its driver and team led by a shell. The wagon was $^{1}$ with bodies of dead German soldiers, piloted as if they were so many sandbags, being taken behind the German lines. From all the evidence the bodies were being taken behind the German lines.

Mr. Cooke's program was a rare combination of humor, philosophy and humanity, interspersed with wonderful interpretations of the author's own poems. His character interpreter is perfectly good and ranged from the apocalypse to a babe for the opera to aology of the Great Emancipator.
A large audience of the student body and faculty heard Mr. Cooke, whose stopover in Lawrence was arranged by the extension department of the university, under whose auspices the poet is touring the state on a lyceum circuit.
Mr. Cooke is a poet of national note, having written a dozen books of rhyme, and contributed to more than eighty publications in twenty years as a poet, lecturer and humorist. \
Is Lecturing in Kansas Under Auspices of Extension Division
Edmund Vance Cook Talks to K. U. on Valu of Poetry
With vocational schools reaching up and professional institutions crowding in the field of humanities and general education is being narrowed, says Frederick W. Roe of the University of Wisconsin in February Scribner's—Colleges must quit meddling with athletes and must re-state their purpose.
"WHILE NARROWNESS DISS
The college is also a place for the development of personal ideals and love. Here you own your own land. Under the guidance of counselors, narrowness is to be put off and breaths is to be put on.
Will the college have a part in solving the problems of the new democracy which is coming to birth at the close of the war, or will it be still further overshadowed, on the one hand, by the newer secondary education, awakened to its social responsibilities, and on the other hand by the professional schools, always responsible to immediate practical needs? This is a big question. It turns out that the work of the University of Wisconsin, discusses in Scribner's for February in an article entitled, "The College: Yesterday and Tomorrow."
WHERE NARROWNESS DIES
"The graduate and professional schools," says Mr. Ree, "have reached down and the secondary schools have reached up, until the identity of the college is seriously threatened. Out of the colossial work of reconstruction, out of the vast and complex reorganization of commerce and industry, there will arise unprecedented demands for trained men and women. That industrial and professional education, turning out armies of experts, is to have a large part in the giant enterprises of the new era we cannot doubt."
"The college is a place for the cultivation of humanistic interests and standards. It has no higher function than to impress upon every youth who enters its hospitable doors that he is a social being, and that he may not live to himself, whether in aristocratic or in intellectual isolation. The student must learn something of what mankind has achieved in science and philosophy, and something of the standards in morals and art that mankind has established through centuries of striving. In other words, his emotions must be touched to finer issues.
"Finally, the college is a place where young people who have not yet made the discovery may find their aptitudes."
Mr. Roe believes that thousands of students who have reached the age of 20 years have not yet found their apti-
Mr. Roe believes that these tools for unity in our social life and freedom for self-development in our individual ideals, has a part to play not less important than the part to be played by any other organization in the educational scheme. "But," he says, "that part ought to be re-stated by the colleges of tomorrow so that the significance of the education they offer shall be as clear and definite as the aims of the technical schools."
COLLEGE MUST RE-STATE PURPOSE
Mr. Roe defines the field of the college:
tudes, and that there should be this period of experimentation which a college education affords.
FOUR CLASSES OF STUDY
FOUR CLASSES OF STUDY
As a curriculum by which these aims may be realized, Mr. Roe suggests four fields which include the fundamentals of a college education: science, including mathematics; history, including economics and government; literature, including language; philosophy. He advises the study of Latin. "Not the other one language satisfies so many purposes as Latin, and its restoration is imperative if college training is to regain its old-time vigor." The study of these four fields in a secondary school should form a foundation for college training, Mr. Roe says. "When the curricular organization of secondary schools and colleges becomes fairly continuous and articulate, prospective college students will be regularly instructed as to the place and purpose of college education while they are yet in high school.
"But a college course, even the most carefully constructed will not work automatically. To be successful according to the standards of a new day, it must be sustained by an organized and co-ordained life on the past of students and faculty, comparable after its kind to that of the best industrial and commercial concerns of which we know."
MUDDING WITH ATHLETICS
Quoting from Mr. Slosson's book,
"Great American Universities," he says:
"The most vulnerable point in our collegiate system is the diversion of the interest of the student body from the true aims of the college. Social life, athletics, dissipation, and the multitude of other student activities have cut down to the minimum the attention given to their studies. For the last twenty years faculties, student bodies and committees, have wargreed over intercollegiate athletics, but they have not yet been suppressed because there have been many other distractions that the faculties have not known which to put down first, and like politicians, they have been content to muddle along with eligibility rules and point systems."
"The college has lost its definiteness of aim. One thing is certain. Unless under the pressure of new times and new standards the college as a non-professional institution will have no place unless its course of study can be justified as convincingly before the world as the courses in our vocational and professional schools, and unless the college can render to the democratic order of tomorrow a service that shall be recognized as essential to the individual and social well-being of man."
Laws Challenge Engineers To Debate on R.O.T.C
The students of the School of Law will debate with students of the School of Engineering on some phase of the course, for the contest has not been decided.
Wade Evans, George Strong, and Hamilton Fulton compose the committee from the School of Law that is to meet with a similar committee from their contestants to decide upon the question. The engineer's committee will be appointed Monday by the engineering societies.
"We expect it to be a big debate," said one of the law students, "and hope to hold it in Fraser Hall. The court probably be set for the first of April."
Plain Tales From the Hill
It isn't Mardy Grass but Mah-oe Grah.
"Say," chirped the inquisitive freshman, looking at the Dramatic Club bulletin board, "Who's this Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh that they're making, a cast of?"
Days like these on the hill, ought to greatly stimulate the sale of those new 26-inch skirts in the town stores.
"Well, men, I brought my smallest pipe today," was the greeting of one of the law students as he came out of Green Hall for his 9:30 smoke.
L. H. S. has in its midst a small scandal school named "Bullshevi." The high school students are thus emulating the laws in their disregard for law and order.
1. New newspaper student after visit;
2. What was your impression
of court's decision?
Second student: "Twenty-dollar suits, and men with the backs of their necks shaved."
Wanted: Recruits for the freshman basketball team. An announcement in the Daily Kansan, telling that the team would meet to have its picture taken for the Jayhawker, added the following invitation, "Everybody Welcome."
The unsuccessful candidate for the Follies was leaving the building when she was heard to say, "Well, I guess I can't sing as good as some of the others," and she sure—I am not as bow leged as some who did make the cape."
Prof. A. J. Boynton gave out this assignment to his class in economics the other day: "What effect has seignorage on the price of Bullion" Winfield Liggett misunderstood the assignment and wrote his paper on "What effect seignorage has on the price of bull dogs." Professor Boynton referred to bull dogs quite frequently in the next class period.

Elaborate Costuming In Dramatic Club Play; Stars' Made In New York
Actress to Play Double Role for First Time in K. U. History
"All set for Monday night," is the substance of statements by Coach MacMurray and Manager Hangen after the rehearsal last night of "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh," the Dramatic Club play, to be given at the Bowersock Theater next Monday night. After six weeks of practicing, the cast is now ready for the final presentation.
“All the fine points of dramatic interpretation have been worked out in the many rehearsals and “Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh goes before the public as the most finished production ever presented by the K. U. Dramatic Club,” said Coach Arthur Mac Murray, last night. The working together of the characters in making a show of this play is especially good. In assuming the double role in the character. Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh, Florence Butler accomplished a feat never before done by a K. U. actress.
COLONIAL STAGE SETTING
"It is the intention of the management to do everything to make this annual play a success," said Herman Hangen, manager of the play. "Blue colonial stage setting will be used. This idea will be carried out in the entire new set of stage furniture. The orchestra will play before and between acts. The music starts at 8:00 o'clock and钟 at 8:15."
The costumes in this play will be the most elaborate ever used on the K. u. stag. Florence Butler, the leading woman, in the first act will wear a gown of grey taffeta and net and a pink picture hat. In the second act she is dressed in a figured chiffon cloth set off in victory.红. In the

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate at the University to go for longer than merely printing the news by standing for it. Students play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be polite; to be gracious; to devove more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University.
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1919.
THE PUBLICITY TEST
"Five minutes in the wide, wide world" ought to be enough for anybody.
The Daily Kansan has asked the University Senate that one of its reporters be permitted to attend the meetings of the Senate and report them for the paper. In making this request the Kansan merely desires to give University news to the entire University.
Although the senate has not considered the petition, some members object to the admittance of a reporter, saying it would hinder the proceedings of that body.
The University Senate is a legislative body with power to legislate for the entire University. It is composed of certain ranks of professors and officers of the University. A large part of the faculty and the entire student body are not in or directly represented in the Senate. The Senate is in the position to the whole University as the legislature is to the state.
The proceedings of a legislative body must be made public to its constituency. Nowhere in the history of the nations of the world can be found a successful legislative body which has existed for a number of years and kept its proceedings secret. Should the legislative body of the University of Kasas be an exception?
It is true that the Kansan has access to the laws passed by the Senate. But laws in themselves approach the absolute zero of news. Nor is it possible for the University at large to look at the acts of the Senate in the same light as it would if the reasons for the conclusions were made public.
Possibly some speeches that are now made in the Senate probably would not be made—but, is this not for the good of the University? It is possible to conceive at this democratic age that the actions of a body legislating for a larger body of people would be better if kept secret. If the Senate acts for the Senate alone, its actions should be kept secret; but if its actions are for the entire University? the whole University should hear of them.
Discretion certainly must be used by the newspaper in handling the work of the Senate. There are some things said in a legislative body, in themselves harmless, which if published would do harm. The Daily Kansan, however, which handles the proceedings of all other University organizations, certainly is capable of handling the proceedings of the Senate with discretion.
Walt Mason has a poem on "cookies" in the "Jayhawkerinfrance", a paper published by the 187th Infantry in France Kansas Day. Surely Walt's experience with his subject was not gained in Kansas!
PAGE THE GREASE
"The high cost of living," observes the professor of economics, who had just got warmed up to his subject at 432 a.m., "is caused by——"
"G-r-R-r-r-r-r! Bang! bang! and O-O-O-O-O-O-h-h-h," came the sound of the patient street car ascending Mount Oread from behind Green hall. "As I was saying," continued the professor.
"Skrrrrreeee! Skrrrrreeee!" wailed the car, reaching the Chemistry Building.
"The high cost of living," shouted the instructor, "is due——"
The car was coming along under his window. Its voicelessness increased all the way to the full stop at the sidewalk. Then the car did its noblest, and relapsed to momentary silence.
"Ah," cried the professor, "The high cost of living."
But then the car resumed its journey southward, and the rest was lost. "And still," said the professor, wearly, "They ask us why we do not teach more in an hour."
PERSONAL CONFERENCES
Faculty members are coming more and more to see the value of personal conferences with students regarding their class work. Electrical engineering instructors have adopted the plan of individual conferences with each student. Some other instructors are using the same plan.
The system may involve inconvenience and extra time for both students and instructors, but is valuable in promoting an understanding between them and in giving the student an idea of the faults and good qualities of his work. It makes instruction more personal than it could be through classroom lectures and recitations only.
TAKING CARE OF THEM.
Demobilization of the army is almost as big a problem as the mobilizing itself was a year ago. Close to 300,000 men are being discharged each month and practically every man in the twelve combatant divisions which did not leave the United States will be出 of the service by the last of them. In addition, there will be for the discharge a return of thousands of overseas veterans in March, the demobilization to continue through the following months until all the overseas men have been returned to their homes.
But the dumping of so many unemployed men into labor fields is creating one of the most serious situations which has ever confronted the country. Normally spring brings a big demand for labor but the times are not normal and the returned soldiers will find themselves thrust upon a world which already has filled the positions which they left.
Many officers are advocating that only as many men be discharged as industry can handle and that demobilization be halted or at least temporarily. Industry will work out which will be more favorable to the returning soldiers.
THE VALOR OF THE EAST SIDE
A recent letter home from a staff officer in France glories in the splendid dittel and loyal Americanism of the men drafted from the motley foreign-born population of New York's East Side. An editorial in the New York "Times" recently devoted a column to one of them. Abraham Krotohsinsky (said to have been a barber), by General Pershing for his heicoptic in aiding in the rescue of "the lost battalion" in the Argonne Forest.
In the meantime the employers can at least weed out the inefficient who have been holding jobs merely "because of he war."
"This division is made up of the puny East-Siders who a New York dude thought could never hold their own with the sturdy sons of the West. We have got something to be done," said Michael melting-pot of New York typified and glorified. Our burial lists show the names of the Jew, the Italian, the Russian, the Polack, the Irishman, the German, fighting for the free
The following paragraphs in the above-mentioned letter are of more than one line.
Government which has aided their lives for their country, and in so doing have become real Americans—no matter where they came from and how they spell their names—as good Americans as those of us whose ancestors fought in our wars (the writer is one of these).
"War is the great equalizer, the real melting-pot. It has welded for us a great people united by the common bond of sacrifice and devotion, courage and suffering, in a common cause. It is our regeneration, our rebirth, a revolution such as will never be over. This will not be realized till after the business has been finished up." —The Outlook.

UNWORKED MINES By Dr. E. A. Bleck
Every now and then dispatches in the newspapers tell of abandoned mines in various parts of the country that are no longer bone work for workers and not opportunity or measure of explosions that have compelled the work to cease.
Unworked mines of tenderness, love and truth everywhere! They lie at our feet, brush our elbows, stare into our unseeing eyes, sing their songs to our unhearing ears. But we are here, looking for a look far from home for it. We search for a field, hoping to find it when, after all, it is near our side.
In like manner there are unexplored and never failing mines of untold treasure in the life of every man, woman and child with whom we come in contact. No man has yet discovered good that there is in his fellow men.
You remember the story of the Indian Prince who sold his farm that he might have the means to search the wide world over for diamonds and precious stones, and then, returning home in his old age, empty handed and penniless, found that for which he had searched had been discovered and develop on the farm he once owned. Before For happiness abroad, seek it in the unworked mines of your friends' hearts, and then when you go abroad, because you have learned the secret of finding happiness at home you will find it wherever you go.
Tenight and tomorrow, as you go about your work, open your eyes and ears to the unmistakable goodness that is at your side, and you'll be surprised to find that in those you love there are hidden mines of affection simply waiting the call of your heart to bring them forth.

AID TO TRADE EDUCATION
If what is known as the Caldwell Bill should be passed by the present Congress, the result would be such a stimulus to vocational and trade training as we have never known in his country.
The government has accumulated something like 100 million dollars' worth of tools and machinery in its rush to produce munitions and war material. Now that there is no further use for most of this stock, it would naturally be scrapped or thrown on the market for whatever it would bring. In addition, the tool will provide fast, instead, the tools to training workers, particularly crippled soldiers home from the war, and to replace equipment which in some cases colleges have worn out in their rush of war work.
Dr. David Snedden, president of the Dr. National Society for Vocational Education, is supporting the Caldwell Bill, on the ground that it would make possible the training of a considerable number of trade workers; for whose education there has been no provision heretofore. He is joined by manufacturers of machinery, who say that if the stock is sold it will bring the government little, but it will serve to check the demand for new machinery in the prevent work and taking on more men just at a time when the need for employment is greatest. The most lasting effect of the bill, however, would come from putting the Congress of the United States definitely behind vocational training—Brooklyn Eagle.

Aggies Defeat Kansas At Robinson Gymnasium In First Game 37-22
Jennings and Captain Clarke Largely Responsible for Manhattan Victory
Lonborg and Bunn Star
Second Game of Series With Manhattan Will Be Played Tonight
The Jayhawkers suffered their third defeat of the season last night at the hands of the Kansas Argies, when they lost the first game of the series in Robinson Gymnastium by a score of 37-22. The Kansas five played good basketball during the first fifteen minutes of the game, even, but in the just five minutes the Manhattan team forged ahead and held the lead the remainder of the game. The score at the end of the half was 15-10.
Captain Johnny Clarke tossed a free throw in the first minute of play after a foul called on Matthews, and followed it up with another a few seconds later. Jennings chipped in with a free throw, but a field goal by Bennett and a free throw by Matthew cut down the lead. The Jayhawkers forged ahead after a field goal by Bunn, but Clarke free throw led the Aces on the running. Jennings found the range toward the end of the half and dropped in a couple of baskets in the last three minutes of the first period.
Jennings, the big Aggie center, was largely responsible for the big Aggie offensive in the second half, and shot five field goals before the end of the period. The Aggie teamwork improved greatly as the game progressed and their fast floor work soon had the Jayhawkers jumped. Kecker was substituted for Bunger at forward in the middle of the period and added a pair of field goals to the Aggie total. Coach Hamilton inserted Meller at right forward in place of Bennett after eleven minutes of play in the second half, and Frederick went in for Matthews toward the end of the game.
Neither Hinds nor Bunger, the Aggie forwards who started the game, was able to find the basket during the game and Keeper, who was substituted for Bunger, scored two field goals. Jennings was the real Aggie star with eight field goals to his credit, although Captain Clarke showed excellent form in free throwing when he topped eleven baskets in fifteen chances. Winters, who succeeded Jennings at center in the last few minutes, tossed a pair of free throws. Cowell played a strong game at guard and scored one goal from the field.
For the Jayhawkers, John Bunn played the beat game on the offensive and counted four times from the field, three of the shets coming in the latter part of the second half Lonborm played an excellent defensive game and scored once from the field. Mattei was a brilliant defender free throws before he left the game and Bennett scored the other field goal.
The same teams will play the last game of the series in Robinson Gymnasium tonight. The summary:

Fresh Track Team Men Will Enter K.C.A.C. Meet
Kansas will send several of the best athletes on the fresh track team to the annual indoor meet in Kansas City, Mo., March 29, according to W. Hamilton, manager of athletics. Six or even first year men will make the trip.
Sexton, a spinner from Leavenworth, who placed in the high school meets here last spring, will run the sprints in the K. C. A. C. meet along with Paul O'Leary. O'Leary will enroll in the University next quarter. He is working in the gymnasium daily and is taking one subject at the city high school. He works in the gymnasium and will be eligible for freshmen competition in the K. C. A. C. meet. He is a member of Dorman O'Leary, Jayhawker track captain. This will make him eligible for Varsity competition next spring.
Shutz is, running the quarter well and may be entered in the event. Chandler and Jackson of Westport High School Kansas City, Mo., who won points in the high school meets here last spring will enter the meet. Both are promising athletes and should be Varsity point winners next year.
Pringle is showing up well in the field events and can make the dashes in good time. He puts the shot better than the Varsity heavens at present. Pringle is high point winner here last spring and probably is the best all around freshman athlete in the University.
Private Nelson got his leave, and made what he conceived to be the best use of his holiday by getting married.
On the journey back at the station he gave the gateman his marriage certificate in mistake for his return railway ticket.
The official studied it carefully, and then said:
"Yes, my boy, you've got a ticket
for this road." I look at him not on this
road. "Jane Home Jewelry."
Tournament to be Played in Ten-minute Halves
Coach Hamilton Expects One o Biggest Prep Events Ever Held at University
The games in the State High School basketball tournament will be played in halves of ten minutes each with a rest of one minute between halves on March 28-29 according to W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics at the University of Kansas. The games have been played in this manner in recent years and on the small courts.
"By playing the games in ten minute halves with a minute rest we save time as we do not have the long more games in a day. We have two days to finish the games and as the delays between halves and can play entries will be large this spring we must save all of the time possible. The games will also have the high school men. They do not have the stamina to last five or six games of regulation length and that is what the winners will have to play to get the title," said W. O. Hamilton to today.

"I see no reason why the standard of the play should be any below the standard of former years and we are looking forward to one of the best tournaments the University has ever put on."

Soph Women Defeat Gym Faculty Sextet
Final Score 15-6 After Close First and Scrappy Second Half
The sophomore woman's basketball team defeated the faculty team by a 15 to 8 score in a game played in Robinson Gymnastium Thursday evening. The faculty team showed much good team-work and were able to hold the sophomores to a 6 to 3 score in their favor in the first half of the game. The sophomores played up to their standard in the second half, while the faculty failed to make their usual short quick passes. Hazel Pratt, Coach of Women's Athletics, scored all the points for her team in the half of the game. Margaret Wasson, forward on the sophomore team showed her ability to hit the basket by making four out of the six field goals for the sophomores. Iril Nelson as running center covered the floor well and tossed a pretty goal for her team. The box scores:
