From the Lawrence Daily World for Dec. 9, 1910:

“When young Henry Maloy told his father of his determination to come to K.U. last September, his parents opposed the plan. Finally, however, his father consented under certain conditions. ‘Henry,’ said the father, ‘if you think you can reduce your expenses to a minimum, I’ll give you my permission to go. But I’m going to watch your work and examine your expense account. If you make good in both, I’ll see you through the four years, but if you fail to economize or “flunk” in any of your studies the first term, I’ll not furnish you money any longer.’ And now after a test of twelve weeks, Maloy says that seventy-five cents a week has paid his grocery bills. ‘Bread and butter, beans and breakfast foods comprise most of my diet,’ he declared, ‘and I have just as good health here as I ever had at home.’ Maloy carries fifteen hours of work and ranks high in all his classes. Although this is his first year, he is well known in school by reason of his cartoons which appear in the University Kansan, the University tri-weekly publication.”
