ALL STRAIGHT HEATS. No Variation In Finish of Yesterday's Races.

The interesting features that have marked the racing events at the county fair this week continued yesterday. The races were closer than on the other days, though in both the 2:24 pace and the three-year-old trot the relative positions of the horses were unchanged throughout all the heats. The two driverless horses were entered against each other yesterday afternoon instead of running separately as before. The exhibition was hardly equal to the single performance, however, as one of the horses is only in process of being trained for the driverless work. The results: 2:24 Pace Purse $300.

Lawrence People Will Have a Chance to See new Thriller. Auto polo, the newest thriller, will be put on at Woodland par.v on October for the people of Lawrence, arrangements to that end having been completed this afternoon.

In auto polo the players use automobiles instead of ponies, and the game becomes thereby much more interesting from the standpoint of the spectator. Auto polo is one of the new big stunts, and the booking for Woodland park on October 8, promises a novelty that will be very entertaining, and extremely exciting. WOtViEN HELD ASS MEETING MANY THINGS TOLD NEW UNIVERSITY GIRLS 1 Chancellor Strong In First Address to Students Says School Support. INCOME IS TOO UNCERTAIN. Head of Institution Predicts a Great Year and Urges Students to Stand Together In Athletics Unless all indications fail, the University is facing an unusually prosperous year, saui Cnanceiior Strong this morning in his annual address to the students at K.

U. "The enrollment is excellent. What cellent. What we need now is to pull together. Let us have a unity of endeavor that we have never had before." The Chancellor impressed upon the students the necessity for some permanent income for the University and he urged them to use their influence to secure some regular source of funds for the great state institution: He pointed out that the legislaure's appropriations were uncertain.

Dr. Strong said in part "The only income that it (the University) may call its own is the income on public land. It amounts to $7200 a year a very small income for a great University. We should have a permanent income for this University that will place us above the exigencies of politics. At the end of the school vear of 1901-102 the enrollment was 1233.

Last year it was 2438. The income must grow and it must grow-out of proportion to the number enrolled, because the expenses grow out of proportion to the increase of enrollment. "State service work at the University cost $50,000 last year and 850,000 makes a big hole in the general fund of a university. That money is expended for things that do not come back to us in instruction in the college. We need your help and your infiuiice, students of the University, to claim what belongs to it and you and your parents have a right to make claims on the legislature." Taking up oilier phases of university life, the Chancellor said: "I am more pleased with the athletic situation than I have ever been before.

The outlook in regard to athletics in general was never so good. If the student body of the University stands for the right things in athletics, we may look for enormous developments in r.thlet-that will put our University on a plane with English universities. "This is your University and it is yours to make this University what it should be. Let us make it a finer, truer, and better University than it has ever been before. One of the finest things that can come into any man or woman's life is this precious loyalty for an educational institution.

We sometimes make the mistake of identifying college spirit and college loyalty with only a part. You cannot be loyal to athletics alone and take that as loyalty to the University. It is a thing for any institution when it identifies college loyalty and college spirit with one part of college life. If you're going to be loyal to this university, you've got to bo loyal to the University as a whole and you've got to have behind that loyalty a pure and fine character oi your own. The main cause for the establishment of this Universitv is the schol-arship side of the institution.

I realize that class room work must i 1 i 4- ue buppiemeiiicu uy coiiiucl wmi men and women and I put that second as the thing you ought to give your attention to. I am not talking about social functions at all." Dr. Strong then took up several criticisms that are sometimes made of modern universities: that universities do not support a sound intellectual spirit, that they neglect state service, that they are not in touch with life, and that they support a low standard of morals. "I don't believe it," said the Chancellor, "I believe that universities and colleges throughout this country are sounder than any other insfitii.inn Vin, line tr (f thp be assorted with taz frvm HORSE SHOE, J.

Following the chapel exercises at K. U. this morning, a mass meeting of students was held in the Fraser hall auditorium. Charles Coates, president of the men's student council, who presided, led an enthusiastic "Rock Chalk," and then called upon Prof. H.

C. Hill for a speech. This was followed byshort talks by Coach Mosse and Assistant Coach Frank on the football outlook. They agreed that while the University may not put out an "ever victorious' team this year, the players are nevertheless men who will put up a good game. The support of the student body was aksed.

All were invited to attend the game between the varsity and freshmen tcamstomorrow. The next number on the program was J.the election of a cheer leader. Chuck" Dolde was chosen for this position.tHe made a short spooch in which he called attention to the annual night shirt parade which is to take place in the near future. The meeting was a very enthusiastic one interspersed with Rock Chalks and followed by yells of different schools. SERVICES INJUfiflL DISTRICTS BAPTISTS PLAN TO START NEW WORK.

Rev. O. C. Brown, of Lawrence, Heads Committee English in German Baptist Churches. Communities near Lawrence will be benefitted by a new 'department opened in the work of the Kansas River Baptist association at the an nual meeting at Alta Vista this week.

A plan to give systematic help districts where there are but few re ligious services or none at all was drawn up and a man employed to take charge of the work. Rev. O. C. Brown, pastor of the First Bap tist church of this city, is chairman of the committee in charge.

Some of the country districts in the neighborhood of Lawrence have asked for help. Religious services will be provided for them under the new arrangement. An interesting feature of the as sociation's business this year was the change of the service of the Ger man Baptist church to English, which will be the language used in that branch of the church in the fu ture.

Ufillfl LI i SfxAj ctioo (jz St.Uuis.Mo. for it seemed that people had ccme to Lawrence who had not been here in months before, and who had been so busy this great Kansas crop year that they had not taken time for the usual visiting. If there was an auto most of the people who were looking for it failed to see it. There were a number of machines on the streets, but there was little concerted action in getting them in line and giving the display that was promised by the automobile association.

A few people took pains to decorate theircars and aid in making a show on the streets, but generally concerted action was wholly lacking and there was not a tenth of inter-terest and enthusiasm created that should have been stirred up.

Epley First, Simmons Second) Lindley Third When Douglas County Race Came OS. Ernest Epley and his little "wasp" yesterday took away the Douglas county championship in the auto races at the county fair. After the professional racers had finished a 5-mile race was arranged between Epley, Fred Lindley and Jerry Simmons.

Epley took the lead and kept it, winning by a third of a lap. The time was 7:42, and the best lap was 46 sceonds. The best five miles made on the track yesterday afternoon was by the Speedwell, in 6:25. Speedwell's best lap was :35.

County and City Children Joined the Throng' of Visitors For the Last Day of the Big Fair In Lawrence. That this was to be the big day at the Douglas county fair at Woodland park was early evidenced by the crowd on the streets early this morning. People began coming to town in wagons and buggies, automobiles, on the trains and on horseback long before the usual hour, and by the middle of the forenoon the streets had a circus day appearance, and the park-bound cars were filled with visitors bound on seeing the best exhibition in the way of a fair that has ever been given in Douglas county. It was Douglas county and automobile day, and the people everywhere seemed to have set the day apart as the one on which they visit Lawrence and see the fair. The country schools were closed for the day and the city schools closed at noon so that the crowd on the streets was large all day long, and the number of people at the fair was larger than all the rest of the week combined.

The weather was ideal for fair visiting, for it was not too hot for comfort, and it was cool enough to make sight seeing- delightful. The roads were good, too, and this added to the attractions that were combined in the one big feature day at the fair. Stores in Lawrence were filled with shoppers all the morning long, and the afternoon shopping was as lively from all appearances as had been the trading in the early morning hours. But that was not the objective point for visitors to Lawrence today, for everybody was headed for the Woodland park fair grounds, and there were hundreds of teams parked at the grounds by noon, and many people gathered there who had not yet visited the business part of the town at all. There wras universal expression of delight at the fine showing at the fair in every line, and everybody was enjoying a good time.

There was lots and lots of visiting, rules, aims and the policy of the governing body the women stu-whole dents of the University. Miss Gal- rv: KtuHpnt (nvernmcnt asso ciation organized and had its first regular etn, which always fol- lows the first chapel exercises. Miss Claribel Lupton, the presi-. dent, presided, and told the girls the nurnose of the organization, the loo told of the scholarship open to an upper class student through Mr. George Irmes and the scholarship i open to a lreshman girl ana given following the W.

S. G. A. spring en- tertainment each year. 'Miss Oli- ver spoke on the dormitory fund.

The meeting was then turned over to the Y. W. C. A. Miss Mary Reding, president, greeted the girls, followed by a talk on the aim and purpose of the organization by Miss Mollie Carroll, the new Y.

W. C. A. secretary. Miss Helen Short, chair- man of the membership committee, made an appeal for new members and distributed application cards.

An unusually large number of women attended the meeting. 1 criticism cannot be made against ns. TCverv institution like this must be soundly Christian (I don't say sectarian) from top to bottom, rPTiter of the intellectual life of the state. I It must stand also for a sound moral and religious life." In closing, Chancellor Strong repeated and added to the quotation that Victor Murdock used in his address last Friday: 'Think not with thyself that thou shalt escape in the king house. Who knoweth whether thou art to come to the kingdom for such a time as you have failed in your responsibility, you cannot escape.

Responsibility is on you and I know you training of the young except the church. This University as a is sound to the core and this.
