KANSAS PLAYED POOR FOOTBALL
COACH SHERWIN EXPLAINS
GAME LAST SATURDAY
100 Rooters Accompanied Team
—Moved Bleachers to Suit Own Convenience.
"The only surprise in the game last Saturday was the poor showing of the Kansas men. The 59 to 0 score made by Nebraska against K. S. A. C. did not spell anything to me and I was not surprised at the team that we met in Manhattan. My men played poor. They tackled high, they forgot their interference, they hit the line high. Heil's run is the only thing that saved us from defeat, aside from the excellent kicking of Delaney. I will have to go back to football fundamentals this week again and start another process of development."
This is the way Coach Sherwin explains the game last Saturday. And in accordance with his forcer policy he will gradually develop his men this week. Last night the freshmen were brought in and a lively serimmage tool place. Serimmage will be held tonight, Wednesday and Thursday nights.
The team felt the loss last Saturday of Stuewe, the big full back. Aside from his "charley horse," he was suffering from a high fever and did not even appear on the field in a suit. Immediately after the game he was taken to his home at Alma and has not yet returned.
About one hundred rooters besides the team and the University band of thirty-five pieces invaded Manhattan last Saturday. The special left Lawrence at nine o'clock and arrived in Manhattan at 11:30 o'clock. The team was taken to the Hotel Gillett where they rested until time for the game.
Many of the rooters and several members of the team remained over night and were entertained by the Aggies. The Kappa Delta Pi fraternity entertained for the University Sigma Nus.
When the rooters arrived on the grounds they found that they had been assigned seats at the far edge of the field. Dissatisfied with this arrangement they transported the bleachers by sections in front of the grand stand and had a good view of the entire game.
LARGE FOSSIL SHARK
Latest Arrival Came From West ern Chalk Beds.
The preparation of the huge shark which the University received last year has just been completed.
"We now have one of the largest fossil sharks in captivity now ready to go on exhibition," is the way Mr. H. T. Martin Curator of paleontology expressed it this morning. "We have been working on it off and on for a year and just finished it up yesterday.
This specimen came from the chalk beds in western Kansas and is one of the finest I have ever seen. We received it embedded in this slab of chalk. It contain all of the vertebrae, most of the skull and a great many teeth. When alive the shark probably measured about twenty-five feet in length but it is compressed so that these slabs only measure about eighteen feet in length.
"I have cut the slabs up into four pieces in order that it may be handled easier. When we go to hang it up we will join the four pieces together so as to make one continuous whole. This is such a large specimen that it will be difficult to find a place to put it as we are already crowded for room. About the only place possible will be on the wall in one of the lower halls."
Friday and Saturday will be fruit salad days at Wiedemann's. **LOST**—Necklace, with topaz and pearl pendant. Reward. Call Bell 405. 1301 Tennessee St. Try the Butter Scotch wafers, at Wiedemann's.
IT'S JUST THIS WAY
The Labelling of Library Books is no Joke.
"It is no small task to make and paste these little stickers on the books," said the young lady, who has charge of the English seminar room, as she carefully finished up the tail of a diminutive pot-hook.
"You see besides answering questions propounded by students in advanced English 'comp' I have the job of labelling all the new books. Miss Clarke first classifies them and puts the numbers on the inside of the covers and then they are sent down here to me.
"I expect you think putting those stilted figures on the labels is just a fad of my own but it is not—decidedly. When I started to do this I had to learn to make figures all over again. Why, it took me a week to get just the right tilt to that '9' alone, not to say anything about getting the curley-cue on the '2' twisted right. We make all the labels this way so as to have them as uniform as possible.
"When I label a book I put the figures on a piece of gummed paper with waterproof ink and then let it dry. A coat of shellace comes next to make the paper waterproof. Then I put some paste on the gummed surface and stick it on the book. The whole process takes quite a while, but even then I label on an average of about forty books a day, as I have labelled over a thousand books since school commenced this fall."
MIAMI ACCEPTS CHALLENGE
Miami county has taken up the gage of battle flung down to the state of Kansas by the Johnson County spelling school sharks and a contest for the state championship will be held sometime within the next two weeks. The presidents of the two county clubs will confer today in regard to the conditions of the match and the rules and regulations will be arranged.
Presidents of Two Counties to Confer on Rules.
Professor Duntap, the head of the English Department, highly approves the proposed bout, at orthography. "Whether spelling as a fine art has declined since the days of the old time spelling bee, is an open question," he said. "and I would be highly interested in its settlement."
Professor Sisson, Assistant Professor of English, is very enthusiastic over the project. "I will be tremendously interested in an inter-county spelling match. From what I have seen of the freshman's spelling abilities, University students need the training."
The Library Hog is a species of biped whose existence is quite unexplainable. It is a peculiar sort of hybrid inheriting the physical characteristics of its human parent, and acquiring through neglect or association the mental attributes of the suiform quadruped. It is sexless. Like the quadruped, it is perfectly selfish and manifests a profound ignorance of social ethics. Its human instincts tell it that a university library is for the use of all; that free access is given to the reference shelves for the convenience of all, to save time; that abuse of the privilege and appropriation of a volume to one's exclusive use is an injustice to all who may desire to use the reference shelves. But these considerations are outweighed by greed. It is not the mature of the beast to think of others. It is a matter of sufficient wonder that the creature should aspire to university circles. It is a matter of amazement that it should have any, even the slightest esteem for culture. It is almost unbelievable that it should attain professional rank.-The Mighigan Daily.

Graduate Club Will Meet.
Prof. F. H. Hodder will give an illustrated lecture before the members of the Graduate club in the Classical Museum, Thursday evening at 8 o'clock.
Governor and Regents Will Look Over University.
OFF TO WISCONSIN
Governor Stubbs, Chancellor Strong, Professor R. R. Price, and Scott Hopkins, Rodney Edward and William Allen White, members of the Board of Regents left Lawrence today for Madison, Wis., where they will attend the National Conference of Civic and Social Center Development. Professor Price goes as a delegate while the other members of the party will inspect the University of Wisconsin as to its work for the state. Chancellor Strong will address the conference on "The Meaning of the Movement."
The purpose of the conference at Wisconsin is to make the school house the center of activity for social and civic development as well as educational work. The motto of the convention is "From Corner to Center." The "little red schoolhouse" is the center where citizens from all parts of the county and state can meet to hold meetings of general importance to the community. This is a new movement but it is gaining wide reputation.
Professor Price of the University extension department, expects to get the next meeting of the conference at the University of Kansas. The work of the convention falls in directly with the extension work of the school and will be a great thing for the University if the meeting is held in Lawrence next year.
