Special music in chapel.
Within the last two weeks McCook field has been the scene of earnest effort on the part of the Kansas football squad to develop a team worthy of representing K. U. upon the gridiron during this season. The first opportunity to see the results of the training will be Saturday afternoon. At this game the band under the direction of Professor McCanles will make its first appearance and will play the patriotic pieces, dear to every Kansas student, Boola Boola and Carmen. To make this opening of the season complete, every loyal student should attend the game and yell for the "crimson and the blue." Don't have something to do elsewhere but be at the game when the men line up for the first play. Be loyal!
The demand for a good quarterback during the past years has more than been filled. Kansas has had no better quarterback than Angney will be this year. Such men as Steele, Coulter and Hennesy are equal to most of the quarterbacks that Kansas has seen on the gridiron during the last few years.
Had the senior election been delayed a few more days some political parasites might have caused a little ruffle.

BLACKMAR ON RAILROADS.
Says Safety and Prompt Service Are Greatest Needs of Present.
Professor Blackmar gave the first Tuesday morning chapel talk of the year yesterday, on the need of railroad reforms.
Professor Blackmar thinks that what the people really need is not a reduction of the freight and passenger rates, but an improvement in the service given. Chief among these improvements, he puts safety, punctuality and an accurate and uniform freight schedule.
The interests of the public and the railroad are common, he says. If the railroad wishes really to promote its own ends it will do so by meeting the people in a common compromise, not by the aid of legal technicalities and corporation lawyers.
Do it now. This is the time to get fixed up with us and get full benefit of our slaughtered prices. K. U. Pantatorium.
THE new College Brand suits and overcoats are a "nifty" lot. Just about as different from any other ready-to-wears asclothes can possibly be.
They're designed by a man who made his reputation tailoring $90 suits to measure. He put the same individuality and dash into 'em that he put into his merchant tailorings.
The actual manufacture doesn't cost any more than any other best made clothes, but oh,the difference in looks, in fit,and in style.
They hit at the young man's fancy, and at the fancy of men with the same desire to look young.

BINDING THE KANSAN.
Library Keeps All Publications. Much Valuable History.
The library recently received from the state bindery several bound volumes of the University Weekly and the Semi-Weekly Kansan. The first volume of the Kansan is also bound. This completes up to date an exceeding valuable file of bound volumes of University publications. In the vault of the library a volume of almost every paper published since the school began may be found. The names of some of the early papers are: Hierophantes, printed in '72, The Weekly Courier, The Students Journal, and the Review. These volumes are cherished as among the most precious in the library. They cannot be taken from the vault. A complete list of all the class annuals is also kept in the vault. In these volumes much interesting University history is found.
Loomas Studio—719 Mass. st.
A prominent sorority girl was overcome Monday afternoon by what the physicians pronounced to be a plain case of Postcarditis. This case was referred to the members of the K. U. Medical school, who all agreed that the only remedy known to medical science for this ailment, is to keep on hand at all times a supply of the beautiful post cards sold at Boughton's which is on Mass. St. at 1025.
Talk to "Frats" Postponed.
The Chancellor's annual talk to the Fraternities and Sororities which was to be given Tuesday was postponed until next Tuesday at 4:30 p. m. in order that all the Sorority and Fraternity members may be present.

Some Library Improvements.
The cases containing the card catalogue of Library are to be remodeled in the near future. Under present conditions the drawers, when filled with cards, are too heavy to be easily handled. The new specifications call for cases half the size of the present ones.
The Phi Delta Phis are wearing colors for Harley Wood, of Ness and Samuel Bartlett of Wellington.
