GLEE CLUB CONCERT GOOD.
Immense Crowd Heard It—Club's Members and Plans for the Year.
The University Glee Club gave it annual concert December 11, and rendered to 1200 people perhaps the best glee concert ever given here. The program was an extended one, of two parts.
During the first part the Jayhawker Quartet, and Power and Teall as soloists, made decided hits with the audience. The second part consisted of college songs and selections from "Tobasco Land." The boys were in college costume and delighted their hearers with two new K. U. songs.
The Glee Club this year is the best that the University has ever had. Under the directorship of Professor Hubach the boys have trained long and well and their work shows the result.
A concert is planned for Topeka, January 3 and another will be given at Ottawa January 18. The annual tour will be taken during the first week in the next semester, concerts being given at St. Marys, Manhattan. Clay Center, Concordia, Abilene and Marion.
The officers of the Glee Club are: Raymond Teall, manager; Frank Frickleton, assistant manager; the other members of the club being H. W. Hollingsworth, E. M. Forde, R. L. Douglas, J. B. Power, A. R. Krehbiel, H. V. Bozell, pianist; J. Snattinger, J. B. Cooper, R. B. Pemberton, D. C. Kemp, and L. D. Thomas.
Swimming Pool Open.
The swimming pool of the Robinson Gymnasium was full of warm water Tuesday, and a half dozen amphibious Jayhawkers, beguiled by the auburn locks of Jay Bond dived in to find that the warmth was a pipe dream. The baths were spouting warm water and later in the day, the pool got warm enough to be enjoyable.
Cercle Francais.
The Cercle Francais is the society maintained by the French department to give its students an opportunity of speaking French more extensively than the class room allows.
It has no parlimentary organization, its meetings, which are held on Tuesdays at 3:30, being presided over by some member of the department. At these meetings some phase of French History or Literature is studied and discussed. Some of the most interesting of the topics which have come before the Cercle Francais this year are: Louis "XIV and his Ministers," "Fontainbleu," and "The Political organization of France Today.
Is This the "New" Football?
Gather up those mortal fragments, lying loosely o'er the lea; take his lungs from off the gatepost and his backbone from the tree; let us have no vagrant wishbone, as a token of his doom; gather up the toes and fingers, ere we place them in the tomb. See, his legs are idly standing, upside down there in the mud; take a sheet of blotting paper, and we'll then remove the blood. Ah, that one so young and handsome, should be scattered far and near, with his nose upon the grandstand, on the entrance gate an ear! Ah, that one so gay and joyous, at the rising of the sun, should be carried on a dustpan, when the weary day is done! Place his whiskers on a platter, and his vitals in the bowl; for the fullback is so scattered, that no glue can make him whole.—Walt Mason.
