LAWRENCE, Kansas, Nov. 8—Ev
ery man and woman student of the
University of Kansas now takes reg
ular physical training five times a
week and the men students, fit for
military service take military train
ing. The University senate recently
adopted the foregoing ruling and the
University schedule has been set a
half hour earlier to clear away all
class arid labratory work by four p. m„
when drill and exercise work begin
for the whole university. The school
whistle blows a rustling alarm an hour
earlier than at present and every stu
dent boarding house in Lawrence has
been directed to have breakfast an
hour earlier than has been the cus
tom for years.
The ruling to compel every student
to take definite, supervised exercise
an hour a day, five days a week, or
regulation army work is the most
sweeping order made at the Univer
sity of Kansas in many years.
It probably will change the whole
trend of student life and of intercol
legiate athletics. All students are
undergoing examination by competant
physicians and must take the exer
cise, prescribed, be that swimming,
hockey, track, cross-country walks or
hikes, light calisthenics, or any com
bination the physical development
■specialists deem best for the indivi
dual case.
Until now only freshmen and soph
more students have been compelled
to take physical development yvork.
TJiat is a usual custom among col
leges. V. O. Hamilton, director of
athletics at the University pointed
out that junior and senior students
are not infrequently subject to ner
i. —..i. i i i —.. wm “
I vous breakdowns from over-study, but
1 such break downs among sophinores
j and freshmen rarely occur, because
j they are compelled to take exercise.
The compulsory training plan of
i the University calls for a regiment
I of three battalions, each battalion hav
j ing three companies of eighty men
each. E. M. Briggs, assistant profes
sor of German, will be the colonel of
the regiment and in command of the
military work.
Mr. Briggs was a major in the Har
vard regiment last summer and was
in training under American army of
ficers and French officers from the
front. He also was a lieutenant in
Company M, First Kansas Infantry,
when the regiment was on the bor
der in 1916.

A shipment of 50 tons of rutabagas
and turnips was recently made to Se
attle on the transport Crook, by the
farmers of the Matanuska valley. A
former shipment of 15 tons, sent on
trial, met with a demand that the
commission house to whom they were
sent requested further shipments and
the vegetables are said to be far^
superior to similar ones grown in the
state of Washington.

COPENHAGEN, Nov. 8—Prediction
of a more serious condition in the near
future affecting Denmark's supply of
fuel, raw materials for industry and
fodder stuffs is made by the National
Bank of Denmark in a summary of
economic and financial situations in
the country.
“In the latter half of the year,” says
the report, “owing to the German U
boat war, navigation met with such
dangers as to become practically a
gamble in which the stakes were life
ind property. Part of the navigation
stopped altogether and imports were
very considerably restricted, partly by
destruction or seizure of cargos, part
ly by the refusal of exports from
Denmark by the belligerent powers,
Conditions accentuated by the en
hance of the United States into the
war.
Denmark’s trade balance during the
war has been good. Our agriculture
and navigation have earned profits
which have more than covered the ex
penditure. and our exports have ex
jeeded our imports. We have there
fore, be \ able to pay our foreign
debts grd we have great outstanding
debts a! road in bills, in credits and
■ fore'g > securities. This is all very
well, but it would have been more for
tunate if for part of the profits we
had been able to obtain the articles
which we want, and which are now
more urgently needed than ever be
fore. As is well known this has not
been possible. We have not been
masters in our own house as regards
imports, nor even as regards exports.
Only when it was absolutely neces
sary have the latter been stopped, for
export prohibition always impairs
one group of home interests and ex
poses us to the risk of further res
trictions of the import or articles in
which the shortage may be even more
fatal. Important political considera
tions also come into play here.
“The general level of prices has
been raised in Denmark and Sweden
by 50 per cent., in Norway by more
than 75 per cent., and in England by
about 100 per cent.”

in the harbor at Honolulu two years
ago.
