Why doesn't somebody take advantage of this weather and organize a skating club to get busy on the University lake as soon as it is completed? "Flannel shirt weather" has worked a considerable change in the appearance of the men students of the University The impressionistic observer who contributed his ideas to the Kansas City Star concerning the dress of University men would have had a different tale to tell if he had visited Mount Oread while a cold snap was on. It is just as well that the plan to organize a "Knife and Fork" club at the University was not carried to completion, for there would have been nothing exclusive about membership in an organization of that name. Nearly every student in the University is already a member of a knife and fork club, in good standing, attending every meeting, and paying dues every week. The proposed organization might have secured the desired "tone" as well as a great accuracy in terminology if it had called itself the "Ice and Corkscrew" club. Kansas men are making their mark in education as well as in other activities in the East. One was inaugurated president of the University of Pennsylvania Monday. The study of politics is one of the most important that University men can engage in. The Good Government club of the University at its first meeting for the year, held last night, outlined a plan of study which will keep its members busy at profitable work, and which will supplement in a valuable way the classroom instruction in political problems if carried out conscientiously. Indications are that the club will overcome the inertia which prevailed last year and really get a creditable amount of work done. MAY HAVE TYPHOID. Paul Ross, a Freshman, Sent to His Home at Sterling. Paul Ross, a freshman in the College, was sent to his home at Sterling, Kan., last night.
