CHANCE FOR THE COUNCIL.
Unsanitary Condition of "Gym.' Needs Attention.
The gymnasium directors are unable to remedy the unsanitary conditions of the lockers which has existed for the past two years. This was found out by Mr. Root, who has charge of the check stand, when he consulted Dr. Naismith about the possibility of assessing each holder of a locker a fee to be used for paying the expenses of cleaning the gymnasium clothes which are kept in the lockers. There is a state law which prohibits the charging of fees for such purposes in the University.
There will be no chance to remedy this difficulty unless the student council should take some action. It is thought that some order from that body might induce the young men to get their "gym togs" washed occasionally.
Humanistic Studies.
The proposed plan for issuing the new series of Humanistic Studies by the literary side of the faculty to correspond with those issued by the Science Bulletin was approved by the Board of Regents at the regular meeting on Thursday. Three hundred and four numbers of these are to be issued each year, each number to be devoted to one study alone. Professor Hodder of the department of history was appointed as director and Professor Whitcomb as editor of the editions.
Adelphics Held Meeting.
The Adelphic Literary Society met yesterday afternoon in room 210 Fraser. A literary program was rendered. John Harbeson read an original paper, E. L. Overman discussed the proposed plans for selecting debaters for interstate debates this year and T. A. Lee discussed the work of literary societies in other colleges. The next regular meeting will be held Friday, October 5th.
KANSAS 29;

GAME WAS FULL OF SPEC TACULAR PLAYS.
Quigley's Men Were Unable to Pierce the Kansas Line— Kansas Ends Were Fast.
In a game full of spectacular plays the Jayhawker football team decisively defeated the fast St. Marys eleven by a score of 29 to 0 on McCook field this afternoon. From the first down to the finish the 'Varsity eleven played a whirlwind game. The Catholics fought hard but they were unable to make gains through the husky Kansans.
Quigley's pupils were ten pounds lighter to the man than Kennedy's pets, but with all their weight the Jayhawkers were able to break up their opponents' plays before they were formed.
In the punting department Johnson clearly outclassed his opponent Mullaney, by booting the ball for from 40 to 60 yards while the latter did not do better than 40 yards at any time. In the open field work Kennedy's men clearly outclassed the Catholics. Repeatedly they would try the forward pass and also the short kick for good gains.
Game in Detail.
The new mascot whose name and pedigree appeared in Tuesday's Kansan kept the rooters in good humor while time was taken out for the many accidents and offside plays.

again. An exchange of punts gave Kansas the ball in the middle of the field. Kansas began to buck the Catholic line. Stephenson hit the line for long gains. After a series of fumbles, short kicks and offside plays, Stephenson was sent over for a touchdown. He kicked goal.

ART EXHIBIT IS IN FULL SWING
GREAT VARIETY OF PAINTINGS ON DISPLAY
Will Be Open Every Day and in the Evening Three Days of the Week.
More than one hundred pictures are now on exhibition at the museum. There are paintings that will appeal to every temperament. The artist will find much to study along technical lines and the persons without, the artistic taste may find many pictures to entertain him.
The paintings this year cover a large range of subjects. There are pictures which portray life on the sea. One of these, "A Struggle For Existence," is deserving of special mention. The waves, the clouds and the color of water are portrayed in a most realistic manner. There are paintings which portrait the life of children. "The Shaved Head" by Robert Henri will appeal to any one who possesses the smallest amount of humor. "The Lady in White" also by Henri is fully as well done as "The Lady in Yellow" shown here last year. There are moonlight scenes, rock scenes and paintings of autumn.
Among the Lawrence contributors is Professor W. A. Griffith. One of his productions is a realistic Portrayal of "The Flitnt Hills." Two portraits, one of Richard Mansfield and the other of Abraham Lincoln, are well done.
The exhibit will be open every day of the week from 9 to 5 o'clock and on Monday, Wednesday and Friday in the evening. It will close on October 23.
Automobiles Collided.
Edgar Clark, Fred Cowles and Clifford Leonard came from Kansas City last night to attend the Phi Delt initiation which will be held tonight at the chapter house. The party came in an automobile and about eight miles out of Lawrence their car collided with a Lawrence car owned by Chambers. No one was injured but both of the cars were badly smashed. The accident happened at a curve in the road.
