Chorus.
Attention of the students is called
to the fact that registration for chorus
means free admission to the programs
of the Damrosch orcrestra at the May
Festival.
This is the night for the church re
ceptions to students. These gather
ings are always largely attended, espe
cially by new students, as they furnish
an 'excellent opportunity to get ac
quanited. If you have no pronounced
convictions against churches, select
one and attend. It is always good to
meet together in social gatherings.
A GOOD MOVE.
The fraternities have been adverse"
ly criticised on the grounds of indi
rectly discouraging scholarship, and of
directly encouraging extravagance and
snobbishness. That this criticism has
some foundation in fact thoughtful ob
servers will not deny.
The mass meeting last evening was
a refutation in part of these ugly
charges. It was the beginning of a
movement of the fraternities to square
themselves in the eyes of the public.
The Freshmen were told that scholar
ship is the foundation of a successful
college career; that society doors do
not necessarily open because of heavy
pocketbooks; and that snobbishness is
an attribute of mediocre and petty
minds. The meeting seemed charged
with a spirit of desire to make the fra
ternities of positive value to the Uni
versity. .
It is to be hoped that the Greeks are
in earnest. If the advice of the older
fraternity men is not heeded, if the
fraternities continue to hold a position
of doubtful value to the University,
then the end is not far off. What Is
incompatible with college efficiency
and democracy will not long be tolerated.

Clyde Williams, Director of Athletics
at Ames writes that their football pros
pects ar8 a great deal better than last
year.
Pictures of the Washburn huskies
are on lexhibitlon in 'on of the down
town store fronts. AH day yesterday
the crowdB were gathered admiring
the teef which loomed up before thorn.
South Dakota plays freshmen. From
all reports that bunch of freshmen
they have this year makes the remains
from their 'varsity of last year look
Ick. They are reported to lack the
greenness of ordinary freshmen.
Director of Athletics Hamilton of
Kansas writes modestly that, "It be
gins to look as though we would have
fairly good team," Nebraska will
have all the competition she desires
when the Jayhawkcrs lino up on Ne
braska Field.
All of our rivals aro supporting a
hospital list almost as long as ours.
The strain of early training is felt
more at this time than any othor.
Give the huskies another two weeks
and the strained ligaments and 'Char
ily Horses' will disappear.
There was a Michigan man on the
campus the oher day who had a great
many wild tales to tell about that
bunch from the Michigan Aggie1 cam
pus. "I think they will wallop Michi
gan," he remarked. A good chance to
put another feather in our cap.
Ames is' to have a new hotel. This
wews will be a source of delight to all
athletic teams who have the pleasure
of competing with the Iowa State Col
lege. Any manager who has ever
visited Ames will tell you of the trials
he has undergone in obtaining food
and shelter for his proteges.
Have you met a citizen of Iowa re
cently? He isn't bashful at all in tell
ing you what the huskies of his state
are going to do to us when we Journey
to Iowa City November 21. That de
termination means that everybody
must begin to save sheckles for a little
ride. We may run two special trains.
Swearing has been prohibited on Mc
Cook Field by the new University of
Kansas coach. He Issued the order
Tuesday and says that it must be en
forced. The sentiment of making the
game a gentleman's game is rapidly
developing. The initiative of clean
ing the game has been taken by the
players on 'Nebraska Field.
