Several rooms in the basement have been surrendered to Dr. Edna Day, the capable head of the new department at K. U.

Two men who persisted in trying to force an entrance to the Frank Bennett home, 913 Rhode Island, this morning at four o’clock were shot at by Mrs. Bennett.

The Kansan, the student paper of the University and laboratory for the department of journalism, will be issued Friday. It will appear three times a week this year as formerly.”
