UNIVERSITY CALENDAR.
Thursday, November 28:
Thanksgiving Vacation.
We must beat Missouri! We can beat Missouri! We will beat Missouri! And every loyal son of old K. U. should be on hand at St. Joseph Thanksgiving day to add his little share to the victory that is sure to come. If there are not five hundred lusty lunged rooters in the bleachers to cheer the football boys on in their march toward the Tigers goal line, something is radically off with the students here at K. U. It takes enthusiasm as well as football prowess to win victories on the gridiron and Kennedy's pupils, who have fought so gamely all season should not be deserted in this the most crucial game of the season. Support the team as it deserves to be supported and it will not fail to put the annual crimp in the Tiger's tail.
After four years of battling for the honor of old K. U. on the gridiron, Carl Rouse will play his last game and make his last effort for his university at St. Joseph on Thanksgiving day. Rouse has never been a spectacular player. He has never cared to shine in the limelight of the football world. Quiet, unassuming but full of a courageous bulldog fighting spirit and a gameness that has never been excelled, he has always played a hard, steady, consistent game that has made him a potent factor in every victory Kansas has won, since he first donned football togs here. Rouse has made a good captain. Extremely popular with the men, there has never been a murmur of dissension in the football ranks, while there is not a member of the squad that has not felt the influence of his courageous fighting spirit.
The Democrats of the University did a good thing when they took the management of the Democratic club from the hands of the Laws alone and made a university organization out of it. Political clubs at K.U assume some little importance
and especially about the time Presidential elections roll around. These clubs should be representative and the democrats have taken a good lead.
The Democratic club endorses Bryan as their candidate for President in 1908. With such backing the "peerless one" ought to head the Democratic ticket easy enough.
The K. U. "Scrubs" who went to Manhattan Saturday were surprised at the rough reception given them. The "subs" on the sidelines were pelted with mud, the players were hissed and jeered by the rooters and after the game, the Aggie Yannigans took the ball, which, by all football ethics the trophy of the game and is the prize of the victors, and made off with it.
Afterthoughts
Now heaven and the equipment committee be praised that the new chairs in Snow Hall don't catch us just under the shoulder blades.

That football field in at Wiedemann's is a model—no umpire, no referees, no side-line loafers.
Now the student directory is out, so whatever you do, don't move!
Did anybody so much as intimate that the band and 1500 rooters aren't going to St. Joe Thursday?
There was a young lady named Florence, who went off to school up in Lawrence.
And sad to relate Very little she ate For she held Hubbard Squash in abhorence.
First student (reading new directory): "What's an adjunct professor anyway?"
Second student: "The kind we can't afford to have regularly."
It's mighty evident that the individual who wrote the editorial on the need of dormitories at K. U. in the last Graduate Magazine, never helped to support the large family of a Lawrence rooming house keepers. It's easy enough to talk about ideal conditions when you're living on your own house and lot.
A certain K. U. professor, who was recently elected to Sigma Xi, was so pleased with his colors that he wore them until they were frazzled out and worn threadbare.
Off agin, on agin—wash agin.
PLAY CAST CHOSEN.
Members of Cast Have Experience in Amateur Acting.
After several weeks of tryouts and rehearsals the cast has been chosen for Green Eyes, a comedy by Gillette, which is to be presented by the Dramatic Club at the opera house December 5 and 6. The principal parts are to be taken by Edna Hopkins, Tess Critechfield, Elmer Sigler, and Vale Nance. Dorothea McKnight, Muriel Culp, Brock Pemberton and Will Perry also have strong parts. All of the members of the caste have had considerable experience in amateur acting and should put on an excellent play.
Green Eyes, the play chosen by the Masque, is one of the cleverest of Gillette's comedies. It is especially adapted from the French and is one of the strongest plays ever attempted by the club. Professor Frazier has charge of the rehearsals and is dramatic director.
The Smith Club gave a party Friday night at 1415 Mass. for their friends. Twenty guests were present. Fruit ices and cake were served as refreshments.
