From the Lawrence Daily World for Sept. 14, 1906: ” Do managers make the pay of chorus girls small because the girls need so few clothes or do the girls wear so few clothes because their pay is so low? : There has been a great rush for enrollment in the journalism courses at the university and Charles M. Harger, director, is quite enthusiastic about the prospects for this fall. : Lawrence High has enrolled 21 more pupils, to a figure of 478, than it had last year but the grade school enrollment is lower. Many more high school youngsters are taking courses to prepare them for university study.”
