From the Lawrence Daily World for Oct. 10, 1909: The “K” men at the University of Kansas have formed an organization among themselves. The new club will be social and fraternal and it will bear an appropirate name, probably the K Club and athletic letter is the only road to membership. Emphasis will be on good behavior and scholarship, members say. One of the athletes behind the group says it plans to keep track of the outstanding athletes in area high schools and will try to convince them to come to the university here. . . . A boy hunting ducks along the Wakarusa River south of Haskell this afternoon saw the body of a man floating in the creek. The body is badly decayed and it will be difficult to establish identity. . . . Lawrence men have established a Mutual Oil Company to sell refined oil in the northwest U.S. They will ship the oil with their own tank cars, with Lawrence as the headquarters.
