NUMBER 13
CRUMBINE TO HEAD MEDICAL SCHOOL?
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1910
RUMOR NAMES BOARD OF HEALTH SECRETARY.
Prominent Kansas Physicians Met Yesterday to Discuss Reorganization of School.
A movement to reorganize the University School of Medicine was started yesterday. Members of the State Board of Health and fifteen prominent practicing physicians from different parts of the state, met with the Board of Regents and discussed a number of plans for that reorganization. While there was no plan adopted, many were proposed and a general idea of what may be done outlined.
By the resignation of Dr. George H. Hoxie, dean of the Rosedale Medical School, the University medical department was left without a head, although Dr. Hoxie is still serving in that capacity pending the appointment of his successor. The requirements of the Carnegie Foundation and the American Medical association have also made necessary the increasing of the clinical facilities of the University school. To meet these requirements the conference of yesterday was called.
While definite action was reserved until a later date, when the faculty of the school and the Board of Regents will meet, it is said that a general plan was adopted. The plan embodies the complete reorganization of the Medical School at Rosedale. The branch of the school here, however, will not be changed.
Further than that, a man for the deanship has also been proposed. It is Dr. S. J. Crumbine, secretary of the State Board of Health. It is rumored that Dr. Crumbine will resign his present position to accept the deanship of the Kansas medical school if the present plan is adopted.
The hospital at Rosedale, known as the Eleanor Taylor Bell Memorial hospital, will be moved to Kansas City, Kan., where the new clinical department of the University's school will be established There, with the aid of the city officials acting for Kansas City Kan., a new general hospital will be built. It is not known what amount of money may be expend upon the building of the hospital, but it is estimated at $100,000
No further action will be taken until the meeting of the school's faculty members with the Board of Regents.

BAKERITES LOSE TO JAYHAWKERS
KENNEDY'S WARRIORS PILE
UP SCORE OF 21 TO 0.
Forward Passes and End Runs by Kansas Made Game Spectacular—Subs in Last Half.
Score—Kansas 21, Baker 0.
The forward pass won for the Jayhawkers from Baker today, in the first football game between the two schools in sixteen years. In the first half the gains from Coach Kennedy's pet play totaled 150 yards. Next to the forward pass end runs were the best ground-gainers for Kansas.
A feature of the game was the running down of punts by the Kansas ends. The Baker men made small returns and were often downed in their tracks.
Johnson was in his old time form, Price, Cowell, Davis, and Heil did star work for Kansas.
Although the day was hot the game lacked the listlessness of previous games this year. Kansas pulled off her plays in snappy fashion, showing that Kennedy's men are rounding into form.
At 3.07 Dalton kicked off to Heil on Kansas' 25-yard line. Early in the game Baker's punting ability was shown. Dalton punted 60 yards. Heil was fielding too close in and had to chase the ball back of the Kansas goal line. Heil kicked out from the 25-yard line. Baker was unable to gain through the line. An exchange of punts followed, Kansas gained by the exchange with the ball on Baker's 40-yield line, Wilhelm dropped back. Everybody looked for a long drop kick for field goal. Instead Wilhelm passed 15 yards to Price, who carried the ball to Baker's 5-yard line. On the third try Heil carried the ball over, just 9 minutes after the kickoff. Wilhelm kicked goal. Score—Kansas 6. Baker 0.
First Quarter.
Baker kicked off and the punting duel was resumed. The punts were long. Heil kicked 55 yards from Kansas' 30-yard line and the ball rolled over Baker's goal line. Hausel was taken out of the game with a broken collar bone. A bad fumble by Dalton was recovered by Wight, who ran 20 yards and the ball was taken into Kansas territory for the first time. Heil kicked 45 yards from Kansas' 10-yard line after the quarter ended.
Second Quarter
Johnson replaced Wilhelm at fullback. Starting from Kansas' 10-yard line Johnson ran 35 yards around end. By returning punts Kansas made progress down the field. Davis recovered a 35-yard punt by Heil. Johnson made a forward pass to Price for 20 yards, taking the ball to Baker's 10-yard line. Kansas was penalized 15 yards. Johnson failed to drop kick from the 20-yard line. In spite of several penalties Baker worked the ball to the center of the field, where Kansas recovered the ball. "Buz" Woodbury went in for Davis and McIlrath replaced Mulvaney.
Johnson's forward passed to Ammons for 30 yards. A second pass by Johnson to Heil was carried over. Heil kicked goal. Score Kansas 12, Baker 0.
Baird went in for Davidson.
Baird went in for Davison.
After the kick-off a forward pass by Baker was recovered by Ammons in the center of the field. Heil passed to Johnson who ran 40 yards to Baker's 15-yard line. Heil's pass to Cowell placed the ball on Baker's 5-yard line. H. Woodbury went through the line for a touchdown. Heil kicked goal. The quarter ended with the score, Kansas 18, Baker 0.
Dalton kicked off over Kansas' goal line at 4:20 o'clock. At the opening of the quarter Kennedy put a number of subs in the game.
Third Quarter
Baker's forward pass was successful, but the gain netted only 8 yards in midfield. Baker advanced the ball to Kansas 40-yard line. Dalton tried a place kick which fell short.
Reported attempts at the limb by Baker failed to gain. Both sides punted often. Long returns by Kansas left the game in the Baker half of the field. Towards the end of the quarter Kabler recovered a punt which Dalton fumbled and carried the ball to Baker's 7-yard line when the quarter ended.
Wilhelm kicked a field goal from the 15-yard line. Score—Kansas 21, Baker 0.
Fourth Quarter.
The game ended with the ball in Baker's possession on Kansas 25-vard line.
The punting duel was resumed. Gossard went in for Heil at quarter. Wilhelm tried a forward pass which went to Baker. The teams played back and forth in the center of the field until Dalton made a forward pass to Counts for a 25 yard gain.

New "Growler" Yell Successfully Practiced.
HELD ENTHUSIASTIC "SING"
The second college "sing" of the term which was held in Fraser hall last evening was well attended, and was accompanied by an encouraging display of enthusiasm. The band, besides playing several instrumental pieces, introduced new words to be sung 'to the tune of Boola.
Alma Mater.
Ralph Spotts lead the cheering and taught the rooters a new way of giving the new "growler" yell. Manager Lansdon, the speaker of the evening, talked upon the history of athletic relations between Baker and Kansas Universities.
It may not be generally known that the term "alma mater," which is universally applied to colleges and universities where men receive their scholastic training, is of purely Catholic origin. It had its source at the University of Bonn, and drew its inspiration from the beautifully chiseled statue of the mother of Christ—known as the Alma Mater—placed over the principal portal of that celebrated seat of learning.
From the Rosary Magazine.
The gymnasium and field association at Smith College is making a special effort to get all the girls interested in athletic sports. The girls are also being urged to stand straighter and walk more erectly.
Mrs. O, B. Hardcastle of Emporia is visiting her daughter, Cornelia, and Mrs. J. H. Butts of Wichita is visiting her daughter Hazel, at the Pi Phi house.
ENDORSE FINDINGS OF THE COUNCIL
REGENTS SUSPEND 4 FOR
ILLEGAL VOTING.
Order of Suspension Will Take Effect Monday Morning and Last All Week.
Without a dissenting voice the Board of Regents in session yesterday adopted the recommendation of the Student Council and suspended D. H. Cadmus, Albert Money, Fred Money, and F. O'Connor from the University for one week, for illegal voting at the recent class elections.
The order of suspension will take effect Monday morning and will be in force the whole of next week.
"While it may seem to some people like making a great deal of fuss over a trivial affair, it was not so in reality," said one member of the Board of Regents last night. "It was a dishonorable act If the students of the University want clean class politics they are entitled to the help of the Regents.
The approval with which the words were greeted by other visiting newspaper men is indicative of the way in which the action of the Regents will be regarded over the state.
"It would have been bad for the University to have overlooked that matter," said one of the editors attending the banquet given at the Eldridge house by the Lawrence Merchants' association last night. "That was an act whci the university could not afford to let st pass unchallenged."
A report was circulated on the hill yesterday that the Regents had decided to ignore the recommendation of the Council and by evening it was pretty generally accepted as true that no action would be taken. There was no foundation for the report. The Regents did not hesitate to approve the finding of the Council.
The discussion regarding the School of Medicine occupied the Regents most of the time yesterday. The.Student Council matter was acted upon as a special matter, the Regents regarding it, as too important to be passed over at the October meeting.
FEVER PATIENTS BETTER.
No New Cases Have Developed in the Past Week.
Dr. H. L. Chambers, the University physician, this morning said, "I am well pleased in the way the threatened epidemic has been checked, and I think that no new eases will develop if the people are careful with the drinking water. The city water is analyzed every day and so far has been free from bacteria, while the well water in the student district shows plainly the presence of bacteria."
The threatened spread of typhoid fever seems to be in check In the past week no new cases have developed and some of the cases which last week were supposed to be typhoid have developed into nothing more alarming than malaria.
WILL ORGANIZE INTER-FRATERNITY
Good Government Club.
The three cases now under the treatment of Dr. S. T. Gillespie though serious, are all much better today and although recovery will be very slow, a rapid change for the better is looked for.
H. G. Powell, the student who has been in the University hospital for the last week,has successfully passed the crisis and if no new complications set in he is expected to recover.
President J. E. Miller of the Good Government club has issued a call for a meeting of the club next Wednesday night.
EIGHT MEN ARE FORMING NEW SOCIAL CLUB.
Will Petition Chapter Knife and Fork Club From Michigan Meet Tomorrow.
A rumor which has been current on the hill during the past week to the effect that several frat men are forming an inter-fraternity society, became known definitely today. Behind the movement are eight students, all members of either the sophomore or junior classes. They are members of four different fraternities.
It is the present plan of these men to meet tomorrow morning at one of the frat houses and to finally organize the local society As soon as the organization is effected the members will petition for a chapter of the Knife and Fork club, which was founded at the University of Michigan. It is said that they have communicated with members of that club and have received information by which they are to proceed in securing the chapter here.
The Knife and Fork club is formed on a plan similar to the Theta Uu Epsilon. The members of the local here declare, however, that they will include a literary side to their club. A number of parties will be given during the year. The first is planned in Kansas City, to take place following the Kansas-Missouri football game.
The organization was started by two members of the law school. They have affiliated the men from the other Greek letter organizations. No one is eligible unless he be a second or third year man. The members of the local club have not yet consented to the publishing of their names and are endeavoring to maintain a deep secrecy about the organization of the frat.
THE WAR IS OVER.
Chemistry Students Reach Agreement With Professor.
A committee of students who are members of Prof. H. P. Cady's class in Chemistry, H. conferenced with the instructor yesterday and presented a request from the class asking for modifications of the course. The conference terminated in a manner satisfactory to all concerned. Professor Cady told the students that he would ask for no more than a total of fifteen hours' work on the course to which he was entitled. He asked the class to put in the allotted amount of study for the next week and said that if the students were unable to do the work in that time he would make such modifications as seemed necessary.
A statement signed by twenty two juniors and seniors which was handed to Professor Cady yesterday expressed the belief that the course was not unreasonable, and concluded, "since taking it we have found that it is necessary for one's success as an engineer."
Prof. W. H. Johnson Returns.
Prof. W. H. Johnson, University high school visitor, returned Friday afternoon from an inspection. The following high schools were visited: Troy, White Cloud, Elwood, Wathema, and Holton.
