With the annual meeting of the
Kansas Athletic Council only three
days away. and many questions of i'm
portance to Kansas football due to be
put on the floor-the football fans are
anxiously waiting for the verdict on
several questions.
First-WiH the conference be di-
Vided into two divisions of eight teams
each. thereby making possible a salts =
at the end Of the season?
Second-Will the conference decide
upon a post-seasOn game between
Hays Normal and another conference
team voted upon, to decide the actual
championship of this years confer
ence-or award he technical decision
to Hays Normal? mo official cham
piOnship has been awarded in recent
years.
Third-Will certain colleges seeking
Abundance gain their point?
Fourth-What will be the decision
in the Kansas Wesleyan Paramount af-
fair. Since Hays Normal turned down
the offer of the College of Emporia
for a post-seasOn game, letters have
been flocking TO The State Journal,
asking and demanding in no uncertain
terms that the conference be divided.
Since The state Journal took a stand
for the division of the conference, we
have been deluged with letters sane
tioning our actions.
These letters are from Kansas fans
The fans make the conference posi-
Bile. No fans-no treasury. No funds
no football.
Should not the fans be considered?
Are they not right in wishing for a
championship award that might settle
the argument of championships every
season.
If the coaches of the conference and
the faculty advisers of the various
schools ignore the wishes of the fol-
lowers of the game. they are doing
so in danger of damaging Kansas ath-
letics. We do not mean that atten-
dance at the games would be unre-
deemably married.
But the interest in the games will
ne below par. Why? Because in
football as in any other collegiate
sport, ends are desired. Not only to
win games, but to gain recognition as
not only better but best"
Why play unless a possibility rests
of becoming a champ? That's the
way the fans look at the division
problem.
They believe that with a division of
the conference into eight teams apiece,
the games could be so arranged that
each team in each division could play
each other team. The champions of
the respective divisions could meet at
a place of central and popular location
in post-seasOn game and fight out
the conference champions to a great
crowd, and in manner that would

Last week the health officers vac
cinated 1,046 persons.
'"Topekans are evidently waking w
to the fact that smallpox is a danger
Gus disease, also that vaccination is a
positive and absolute prevention" said
Doctor Brown. I'VE had quite a time
convincing them of the fact. but the
number applying for vaccinations at
present indicates the consistency of
their belief"

One case of diphtheria was reported

Even with all this evidence, word
reaches the colin thru the medium of
direct reports, that the coaches and
faculty members have set their minds
against the division. We can hardly
believe it The conference is in a
critical position to take stand of this
kind.

a more satisfactory manner of settling

The United States defeated England
in another contest of sporting nature.
This time the L. S. was represented
by Kansas.
Master Sergeant Jack Dimond, of
the Cavalry school at Fort Riley, won
the deciding bout in an International
Fencing tournament held IN Wash
ington, D. c., recently. when he de-
feated Lieutenant Col. a. Ridley Mar
tin, of the British army, five touches
to one. The crew of officers at FIT
Riley were so elated at the sergeant's
success that they awarded him a gold
medal, and the United States army
thought So much of it that they gave
him a warrant officers commission
and ordered him to West Point, n. Y,
where he will head the instruction of
fencing at the United States Military
academy.
The tournament at Washington in
cIuded some of the best fencers in the
world yet the American team, headed
by Dimond, took first place.

GERMANY IGNORES

 end This consummation would not only be to Europe's interest but to Americas as well. America wishes to secure the rights of her creditors and to sell raw materials to Germany. France must receive money, but Ger many must not be pauperized. The recent German note to America, which attempted to throw so much blame on France, was stupid and clumsy, but at the same time the separations problem is hardly to be solved without the loan which was therein suggested
 CAN'T MAKE SECURITY
 If. as Briand declares, the entire pos sessions Of the German nation are pledged as a mortgage to the French creditors, then the German state, which must demand a certain percentage for we'll l-being, cannot, with this mortgage on its land. forests, water powers, rail- roads and ,manufactures. offer suffi- cient security for loan which would make reparations and the beginning of financial sanity possible.
 Fresh demonstrations of force marching troops and military noise merely would cause more bitterness and, while injuring Germany, would not help France.
 France must perceive that the only way to, gain anything is through all alliance with German trade; the two countries then would control the ore and most of the coal of western Flu. rope and could quickly help one an other forward
 Could not America lend us for few weeks one of her eloquent commercial men to tell the people over here how the United States has arisen out oi the wars destruction and what a blessing. economic unity has been fol mutually interdependent peoples? I this lesson could be understood ant applied from Siberia to the Pyrenees Europe would be saved.
 But despite the publication of ths hard Rhine customs conditions. few persons here understand what foreign CTS long since have realized that this is a fatal moment for Germany. As I write, bells are still ringing and mourning flags still are hung out Were Kaiser William reigning, there could not have been a more elaborate demonstration over the death of tho Empress. She was respected as a care full wife and good mother, but was never altogether popular. Always ar | intense Lutheran and an enemy of tn, Catholic church. she had a great in l Nuence over her husband, but wa! careful not to meddle in politics. Dur
