A Kansas club, composed of K. U. students, has been formed at Ann Arbor. Only another indication of the widening influence of the University of Kansas.
Chancellor Strong spoke at Wichita last Saturday on the K. U. of the future. It goes without saying that the Wichitaians saw something that taxed their imaginations.
The most common subject among the track enthusiasts in the halls today is: Is Prof. X going to give Henry M. another examination, or has Charley raised that condition yet?
The immense amount of work that Coach Hagerman is doing for the University without a cent of compensation should endear him to every one who has the welfare of the institution at heart. We can not have too many such enthusiastic and unselfish workers as Coach Hagerman.
The manager and members of the mandolin club are to be congratulated on the excellent record it has made this year. They have lost nearly a score of good men through the eligibility rules, yet still have an organization that conforms with similar organizations of larger institutions.

There should be some means of preventing the conflicts that occur on the dates of the different student functions such as athletic meets, debates, class parties, etc. If there was some system of registering the dates in the registrar's office much inconvenience and trouble might be averted.
Was the basket-ball team playing against luck, or something worse. It would be more satisfactory to believe it was against luck, but it looks suspiciously as if in five of the game the boys were playing against better teams. We feel bad over the result but we should be comforted when we think how miserable the Warrensburg Normals must feel. On the whole we can't say the team did so bad. At Kansas City and at Missouri the boys played great games. Of course the U. S. army at Independence showed us up, but Uncle Sam has shown others up also. All K. U. has to say to the victorious teams is, "you can't do it again."
J. P. Hagerman, the Y. M. C. A. secretary, but better known as the Jayhawker track coach, has finished his second month of service as coach. He has given Kansas University his services, refusing all remuneration. As a result the track team will go to Kansas City, Friday night, in training for the first time. The same enthusiasm that won at Nebraska will win at Kansas City. It was this enthusiasm that led Hagerman to accept the leadership of the track squad. He has done his best. Student support will do the rest.
The lecture which was to have been delivered to the electrical engineers by Mr. W.K. Parker was postponed and will be given Thursday evening at 7:30. Mr.Parker's subject will be "The Choice of Types of Equipment in Power Plant Construction."

Mrs. P. S. Hollingsworth of Independence, Kansas, is visiting at Professor Olin's with her daughter Pearl, a freshman in the college.

Ask any of the town's best dressers where to get the smartest Suit, the swellest Top Coat, the handsomest pair of Trousers, the correct Hat, a choice Tie or Shirt, or anything in the Toggery line and the answer will be— "Why, at Ober's, of course."

KANSANS AT ANN ARBOR.
First Annual Banquet of Old K. U.Men.
The first annual banquet of the Kansas State Club was held at Oyster Bay last Friday evening with T. E. Rankin, instructor in English in the law department, as the guest of honor. About twenty members of the club were present, not quite the full quota of Kansans attending the University of Michigan, but what the men lacked in numbers they made up in enthusiasm for the Sunflower state. During the early part of the evening Fischer's orchestra furnished the usual delightful music of that organization. Then followed the course dinner served in good style.
After the dinner was over the remainder of the evening was given to short speeches by the various members of the club. Isaac R. Rubin acted as toastmaster, and called upon the follow for responses: Frank Bates, "The Jayhawker State"; Harris B. Maris, "Kansas Sagebrush"; Clyde L. King, "William Allen White"; Philip R. Anderson, "The Shortgrass Country"; "The True Kansan," Rosboe F. Hunt; "Kansas Prosperity," Clyde W. Colby; cowboy recitation, "When the drama comes to Cactus Center," Charles W. Eaman; "Kansas Sunshine," Frank Bohr; "Kansas in Education," T. E. Rankin.
There was a meeting of the Junior Y. W.C. A. this afternoon at 4:45. Miss Florence Henlon was leader.
