In close connection with a false idea of what a college ed and coed are, an ignorant world has long had a false impression of what a college faculty member is. The men who draw the funny pictures would lead up to believe that a college professor is a crabid, weak-eyed, misshapen fossil who was born a thousand years too late. That the cartoonists have exaggerated is vigorously denied by all college students and even more vigorously denied by the maligned pedagogues themselves.
FACULTY ROOTING.
Dec. 15.—Friday, Law "Scrim."
Whether or not this suggestion will be heeded cannot be ascertained until next Saturday. But the idea is a good one. What could be more inspiring that a hundred, hoarse voiced faculty members cheering our football warriors on to victory? What could better depict true college spirit than a snake dance in which teachers of classic Greek hilariously high stepped in unison with instructors of Calculus and of pastoral theology?
The latest suggestion made by a faculty member of our own University would seem to show that our instructors are alive awake and anxious to meet the students on an equal basis. It has been proposed that a rooting section for faculty members be reserved and that the pedagogues elect their own cheer leader who shall conduct them through the proper contortions and vocalizations incident to rooting.
HERE'S TO YOU. BENNIE
well, if it had to be, the University is awfully glad that it was Bennie Owens' team that did it. For seven years this former varsity star has been plotting dire things against him Alma Mater and last Saturday saw the culmination of his heart's desire.
A faculty rooting section Let's try it once anyway.
The Jayhawkers met their first defeat of the season and it was at the hands of one of the best teams
that ever trotted out on McCook field. The Sooners are fast and heady, are sure tacklers and the entire team is a whirlwind of speed. They simply got the jump on Kansas in the first few minutes of play and scored the three points that won the game for them.
Whether or not Kansas played ball is not a question. We were beaten and by a worthy foe. The men from Oklahoma are clean players and every member of the team is a gentleman. A better spirit could not possibly be than that which exists between the University of Kansas and her sister college to the south.
JUST IN PASSING
All together now, three cheers
'or the Sooners!
We thank you, Mr. B. Owen, for remaining in Columbia a week. Not simply, you understand, because it adds a touch of color to have those husky, good looking young men ambling around our classic thoroughfares, and not simply because we like your smile, but it HAS been great to have a winning team among us for ONE week at least.—University Missouri.
In an address delivered at the chapel of the University of Minnesota, Dr. Harry S. Warner, president of the National College Prohibition league, assaulted the drinking proclivities of student in American universities. One-half the students of American universities drink alcoholic liquors, he declared, and whereas 100 years ago students drank per capita six gallons of beer a year, at present they drink as much as 22 gallons.
You needn't feel so swelled up about it, Missouri, we had the same team with US over Saturday.
Whoa there Mr. Warner! Cop

sidering that we have 2500 students at the University of Kansas and if as you say each one consumes 22 gallons of beer a year, that makes almost 55,000 gallons of the beverage to be accounted for. We rise to a point of personal information. Where is it?
