DRIVE OUT THE JOINTS.
University Drug Inspection Helped Temperance Cause.
That the University has played a prominent part in suppressing intemperance in the state of Kansas in the last year is shown by the report, which Prof. L. E. Sayre, director of drug analysis for the state board of health, submitted Dr. Crumbine Tuesday. According to the report the department of drug analysis brought forty prosecutions last year for violation of the pure food and drug law. Many of these cases resulted in the closing of "joints" where the carrying of an incomplete stock of old and impure drugs served as a blind for the illegal sale of liquor in the back rooms.
During the year 120 towns in the state were visited by the inspectors, and 1377 articles were collected. Of this amount 250 have not yet been reported on.
This winter, three men will give their whole time to laboratory analysis. They are Geo N. Watson of the University of Michigan, A. E. Stephenson, and James T. B. Bowles of the University of Wisconsin who will arrive in Lawrence to take up his work at the University this week. Prof. C. M. Sterling does the microscopic work on the analysis of spices and tea.
Prof. L. D. Havenhill is the general superintendent of the work and sets the standards which must be maintained by druggists selling within the state.
The director of the pure food analysis at the University of Missouri spent some time at the University last summer studying the laboratory methods followed here. He said before leaving that the Kansas law on pure food and drugs was a model.
Frank J. Klingberg and Charles Hoffman, two graduates of the University who will hold fellowships this year at Yale University, left for the east Sunday.

WILL ORGANIZE FRIDAY.
Permanent Country Club for Long Distance People.
At 12:15 Friday all who are interested in cross-country walking are requested to meet at Myers Hall for the purpose of organizing a country club. As soon as the club is organized definite plans will be made for regular walks of either a short or a long distance. Records will be kept of the distances walked with the name and time of the fastest walker.
For a long time there has been considerable long distance walking to places like Kansas City and Topeka but no record has been kept of it. In the future the new club will announce the time of these long walks giving everyone who so desires a chance to make the trip. Membership to the club is not exclusive except to students of the University.
From Other Colleges
New rules concerning absences have been adopted at Princeton this year by which danger of over-cutting will be practically eliminated. By this system in which an instructor must turn in all cuts not later than the day following the taking of the cut, every student knows just where he stands. All applications for cuts to be excused, such as those taken by athletic teams, the musical clubs, etc., must be made before the cut is taken.
The Central California Amateur Athletic Association which includes a majority of the high schools in the central part of the state has voted to play Rugby football hereafter.
Nineteen new members have been added to the glee club at the University of California. The first rehearsals have already been held.
The preliminary scraps between the two lower classes at Indiana University have begun and it is said the vicinity of the campus has taken on the appearance of a barbershop. Almost as many sophomores as freshmen have been forced to submit to losing their curly locks.
The Purdue tank scrap was a fiercely-fought contest this year in which half a dozen under graduates were rather badly bruised.
Because of a deficit of about $3,000 the boating appropriation at Stanford University has been cut to $1,000 a decrease of $3,000 from that of last year. It may be decided to eliminate rowing from the list of in tercolegiate sports, there, altogether.
The Minnesota Daily in a bitter editorial in the issue of September twenty-fourth arraigns the president of the Athletic AssociationEdward Chestnut, star end of the 1907 football team, for disloyalty to his University, in deserting the Varsity squad to become a professional. It seems that much bitter feeling has been caused by his action in the matter.

R. K. Moody, of Lawrence, who was treasurer of the University and manager of athletics from 1893 to 1898, placed in the trophy room of the gymnasium this week, some interesting photographs of former University football teams and athletic stars.
