WHERE WILL BLUCK GO?
It's to the Tigers, Either Way the Warrier Turns.
One "Puny" Bluck, captain-elect of the Missouri football squad, who was recently dismissed from that school because of a disagreement with the town police force, will next year don the moleskins for the Tigers, but it will not be for those who hibernate in Columbia. According to reports, Coach Wm. Roper, who will have charge of the Princeton squad next fall, has induced the hard-hitting tackle to enter Princeton and try out for the team there.
Several Missouri University students who were visiting over Sunday at their homes in Kansas City, however, made emphatic denials of this report and, with a sly wink and a knowing nod of the head, said, "Just wait until next year." Evidently they believe that before the time for the call for the pigskin chasers next fall, the services of Bluck will be considered too valuable to be lost to Missouri..
To Debate Honor System.
Judges for the inter-fraternity debate, which is to be given in Fraser hall May 5, have been chosen. They are Professor W. E. Higgins, Hon. A.C. Mitchell and Professor F.G. Bates. The question which will be discussed is, "Resolved, That the Adoption of the Principles of the Honor System would be conducive to the best interests of the student body and to the University of Kansas."
Rev. Frank E. Higgins, "The Lumber Jack Sky Pilot," whose work among the lumbermen of Minnesota has been described by the author, Norman Hacket, will speak in chapel Friday, April 18 under the auspices of the Presbyterian board of home missions.
ORGANIZATION NEEDED
Dean Sayre Outlines Work of Professional Societies.
Dean Sayre of the School of Pharmacy gave a talk to the pharmaceutical society yesterday morning on the subject of organizations and associations. "The world's work is being carried on by organizations and men are living closer together than ever before," said Mr. Sayre. "The young man in his educational life should be taught that the greatest work in life must be made effective through organization, co-operation and association."
At the close of his speech the dean gave the history of two of the largest associations in the world—the American Medical association, which pays attention to the practice of medicine, and the American Pharmaceutical society which protects and enforces the pure food law.
A Recital by Students of Department of Expression.
HAD LARGE AUDIENCE.
The recital given by the senior girls of the department of expression Friday afternoon at the down town studio, was exceptionally good. The audience was a large and appreciative one.
The program consisted of the following numbers:
"Sleep," (Mrs. Browning)— Edith Lawson.
"Miss Hazy's Matrimonial Experience" (Alice Hegan Rice)—Jennie Purdy.
"The Lost Word" (Van Dyke)
Gravee Waugh.
"The Mission Box That Scandalized the Village"—Bess Yeater.
"The Hazing of Valient"—Lilian Kirchoff.
"Jean Valjean" — Winifred Van Vleit.
Nina Pilkenton and Bertha Williams of the vocal department sang solos.
The senior girls will give a farce at a recital soon.
RECEIVED NEW SKULL.
Valuable Specimen Arrived Yesterday.
The department of Paleontology yesterday received a very valuable skull of a beaver from the Smithsonian institute in Washing ton, D. C. The skull is of the extinct species known as Castorides. It will be used in the department for study and within a short time a comparison of the new specimen will be made with that presented to the University last summer by Dr. McClelland of Pleasanton, Kansas. It is believed that this comparison will reveal the fact that the McClelland skull is of a different and extinct species.
OPENED BIBLE INSTITUTE.
Echoed in France.
President Frank K. Sanders of Washburn Spoke.
Amida Stanton, '04, who was for one year a fellow in French, is this year attending the University at Sorbonne, Paris. A recent letter received from her tells of a picture of the campus of the University of Kansas that hangs on the walls in one of the class rooms of the French school.
Miss Gertrude Mossler of the Fine Arts school, gave a recital before the N. P. M. club at Otawa, yesterday.
The instance goes to show the world-wide recognition of the University.
President Frank K. Sanders of Washburn College, opened the University of Kansas Fifth Annual Bible Institute Sunday afternoon with an address on "The Biblical Use of the Imagination," at the vesper service time. He first referred to the importance of imagination as a factor in business activities as the planning of great railroad enterprises.
Imagination is also useful to the student especially in any historical study, he said. The use of the imagination in considering the Bible is important in both the historical and allegorical writings. President Sanders explained its use in Job to supplement the historical framework and thus to present the author's idea of the relations between God and men. The supreme use of imagination for religious purposes is in the parables which Jesus used to set forth eternal truths.
Special music included the anthem, "Unfold Ye Portals," from "The Redemption," by Gounod, which is a favorite with the vesper chorus and with the audience. Only two more vesper services will be held during this school year. On March 13 the speaker will be Dr. Washington Gladden. The following Sunday an entirely musical program, in the nature of an Easter cantata will be given. The chorus will give "The Crucifixion" by Stainer.
