A seeming apathy and general disinterestedness among the players characterizes the spring football practice. Ten men report at intermittent times and the results of the practices thus far are nil. The question that naturally arises is why there is not more enthusiasm manifested and why some results can not be obtained from the spring workout. The management can hardly be blamed for the condition. Ample coaching facilities have been provided and the hours of practice have been set. The matter seems to be checked up to the players themselves. Evidently the men who were on the team last year consider spring training unnecessary and the freshmen consider their chances for the team next year will not be helped by any spring practice. There ought to be some interest shown in the practice. Other schools have shown that it is a wonderful help in turning out champion teams and if there is anything that will help us we ought to take advantage of it.
The lectures by Dr. Charles Zueblin on "The Twentieth Century City" are delightful and interesting expositions of one of the great questions before the American public today. Dr. Zueblin is an authority on the development of the city and he has studied the citizen and the city from every angle. Without question he is one of the most forceful speakers who has ever addressed a University audience. His lectures are surcharged with pertinent remarks and his talks are made more interesting because of the lack of the manuscript that always throws a cold chill over a University audience when it is produced. The lecture yesterday was not well attended and it is hoped that for the remaining addresses the student body will show the interest that these lectures merit.
Engineers Are Entertained.
Dean and Mrs. F. O. Marvin entertained some of the senior engineers and the members of the faculty of the school of engineering, with an informal party at their home 1603 Massachusetts street last Saturday evening. The evening was spent with a dinner and talks by various men. This is the second party given by Dean Marvin within the last two weeks, the other half of the senior class of engineers, being entertained at a similar affair on the Saturday a week before Saturday last.
Prof. A. T. Walker and Prof. A.M. Wilcox addressed the meeting of the Classical association which met at Ottawa University last Saturday. Professor Walker was chosen a member of the executive committee of the association.
Charles Burkdull, who is giving voice recitals over the state, sang at Holton Thursday. He was accompanied by his sister. He will give a recital at Topeka Thursday. Three or four songs will be sung at the Odd Fellow's banquet.

SHOT GUN RECOVERED
Secretary Brown Finds Weapon Somewhat Injured.
The ninety dollar shot gun which was lost by Edw. E. Brown secretary and purchasing agent of the University, when his canoe capsized while he was hunting at Lake View some weeks ago, has been recovered. The gun was lost in about eight feet of water, and was recovered by the use of long handeled rakes. The woodwork was considerably swelled, and the finish on the barrel somewhat injured, but the weapon will still be of use.
Verein Postponed.
The program to be given at the Deutsche Verein yesterday was postponed for two weeks on account of Professor Zueblin's lecture given in chapel at that time.

REV. L. P. POWELL SPOKE
Massachusetts Visitor Discussed Paul's Message.
Rev. L. P. Powell of Northampton, Mass., who is visiting the schools of higher learning in the United States to secure data concerning the religious attitude and the nature of the instruction in them, spoke briefly in chapel yesterday morning. His theme was Christ's love as stated in the message of Paul to the Corinthian church: "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him."
"When we who are all more or less hero worshippers are disappointed in some friend," said Dr. Powell, "we are in a measure made sin for those we love. Thus in an infinitely greater measure Christ manifested his love by his suffering for mankind. We may be loved into goodness and it was for this that Jesus lived and died to show how he loved his people."
Lilacs Popular Posies
Rules or no rules, flowers are attractive in the spring. Just now one of the most popular places on the campus, where strolling couples spend some of their precious moments is the iliac hedge to the east of Fraser hall. Sunday the Campus was visited by a great many people and each one carried away at least one sprig of the purple iliac; some even carried off bunches.
Speak at Kansas City
William Caldwell and Ralph Spotts addressed the morning audience of the Linwood Presbyterian church in Kansas City Sunday. They spoke on phases of University life. They addressed the Young People's meeting a week ago and it was because of the interest they aroused at this meeting that the men were recalled.
An exchange of professors in alternate years between Harvard University and France has been proposed. If this arrangement is concluded, the first exchange will be made next year. The ministry of public instruction of the French government will choose the professor from France, and will designate the university to which the professor from Harvard University will be sent. For their stay of one-half year the exchange professors are to become active members of the faculties of the universities to which they are sent and are to conduct regular courses within the universities.
An effort toward beautifying the campus has been initiated at the University of Michigan. Dead or diseased trees will be removed. An attempt will be made to close paths which have been worn across the lawn, and ornamental shrubs and flower beds will be set out.
