SATURDAY, SEPT. 25, 1909
In a month and a half the street cars will be running across the campus. We all like the good old cab, but to paraphrase a popular expression,
"Oh, you street car line."
And they all do say that the Freshmen have a grand squad of football players out for practice every night. It does look as though ever-victorious teams will just keep on coming to Kansas.
The class politicians at the University are beginning to get down to business, and that means that something is about ready to drop. No one can tell just what is coming when the valiant distributors of the class "grapes" get their heads together.
Coach Hamilton is going to have a few track meets this fall. The coach must be so proud of his men this year that he can not wait until spring to show them. That is all right though; it may give Missouri heart failure but we guess that we can stand it, alright, all right.
The shirt tail parade tonight is bound to be a hummer. Let those fellows, who are always bemoaning the fact that school spirit is on the wane here, get out tonight and create a little healthy enthusiasm on their own part, and they will begin to see that, after all, there is considerable spirit around this institution.
To carry out the "simple life" ideas of the Chancellor the management of The Kansan has decided that not more than one Kansan will be delivered to one person at one address. However all students who have not yet subscribed for one copy of The Kansan will be welcome at The Kansan office with wide open arms, and we will be only too glad to help them spend their dollar and a half.
The Y. M. C. A. stag social in the gymnasium last night was a well merited success. There is not an institution about the school that has so consistently stood up for all the best interests of all branches of University activity as has the Y. M. C. A. Of recent years the association has come into close touch with the student body and has by many acts won the good will of the men at Kansas. It is only fair that such an energetic, wide-awake policy on the part
of the association officers should be rewarded by a fair degree of interest and loyalty on the part of the students.
ELECTED OFFICERS.
Civil Engineering Society Organized for the Year.
The Civil Engineering Society held a meeting late Thursday afternoon and elected officers for the current year. George A. Neal, Jr. was made president, K. F. Troup vicepresident, and A. P. Learned, secretary and treasurer. The two faculty officers are Prof. H. A. Rice, adviser, and Prof. J. D. Newton, corresponding secretary.
The society will hold a meeting once every three weeks through the year, at which some prominent engineer will deliver an address.
NEED MORE MUSICIANS.
Still a Few Vacancies in the University Orchestra.
Dean Skilton, director of the University orchestra, is busy getting the orchestra into shape for its work for the coming year. He has in sight musicians for most of the places, but needs a drummer and a French horn player. He would like to hear from students proficient in those instruments.
The second rehearsal of the year will be held in the chapel Monday evening. Players of other instruments, also, than the ones mentioned, are invited to be present.
Miss Dalton Won Scholarship.
The Frances Schlegel Carruth memorial scholarship in German, amounting to $100, has been awarded to Miss Beatrice Louella Dalton. The scholarship is maintained by Professor Carruth, and is awarded each year to the graduate of the Lawrence high school who stands highest in a competitive examination on entrance German.
Concert Next Thursday.
A song recital by Madame Myron, with violoncello obligato, will be given in the University chapel on Thursday evening of next week. This will be the opening number of the fall concert course of the school of Fine Arts. There will be four concerts in the series.

Professor R. D. Landrum has removed to his new home at 949 Maine Street.
Carl Anderson of Dodge City is the guest of Miss Grace Gwinner of the German Club.

Gorsuch; Secretary-Treasurer, Otto Appollo. Walter Mayer, T. A. Lee, F. E. Wells and Moe Friedman were chosen for the Debating Council.
Glee Club Tryout.
There will be a public tryout held next Tuesday evening at seven o'clock in Fraser Hall to select members for the Varsity Glee Club. Everyone who can sing is invited to compete.
E. E. Brookens, '09, who is now assistant reporter for the Supreme Court at Topeka, visited Thursday with friends in the school of Law.
