Chancellor
Main Speaker
At Rites Today

“Don’t call me, ‘Chancellor’;
call me Mr. Malott. I’m one of
you—not one oyer you.”

This, in effect, is the impres-
sion that everyone receives who
comes in contact with the new
Chancellor, whether he be an
employee on the campus or a
high official.

In keeping with his quiet nature,
he has requested that his inaugural
today be simple and_ informal.
Chancellor Malott will be the main
speaker at the seventy-fourth open-
ing convocation’ held in Hoch audi-
torium at 9:50 o’clock this morn-
ing.

The convocation will be broadcast
over station WREN from the stage
of the auditorium. After the
doxology, led by» Dean Donald M.
Swarthout, of the School of Fine
Arts, Dr. W. L. Burdick, vice-presi-
dent emeritus of the University,
will lead a responsive reading from
the Eighty-fourth Psalm.

Dr. Burdick will use an old Bible
that has been in the possession of
the University for most of its
existence. The Bible, printed in
1867, undoubtedly was used for the
first religious exercises held in the
University. The aged book is

bound. in faded leaiher.

The University band, led by Rus-
sell L, Wiley, will play Leidzen’s
Nordic Grand March, followed by
the hymn,

“Duke Street.” The con-

alott's Inaugural Will Be Simple

“Co-operation” is the password
to at least one rooming house on
the Hill-this year. Twenty mem-
bers of the Jayhawk Co-op at 1614
Kentucky street are reducing their
expenses to a minimum by doing
all their own cooking and house-
work.

Last year there were no truly co-
operative men’s houses on the Hill,
although they had been considered.
This year the “1614 boys” got to-
gether, rented a house, found
chaperones—Mr. and Mrs. John
Moore—and went to work.

Each of the members works about
an hour a day, some preparing
meals, others making beds, and still
others washing dishes. They have
a well-balanced diet, buy wholesale
whenever possible, and eliminate
profit.

Jerry Fiedler, c’40, was elected
president by the group; Stafford
Ruhlen, c’40 is vice-president; Don
DeFord, ¢’40 is secretary, and Ker-
mit Franks, ¢’40, is the treasurer.

At first the boys were confronted
by financial problems, as the house
had to be furnished. The mem-
bers got together and worked out
a suitable plan. Each member
pays $20 to join. Each year’ he
lives at the house $5 of the sum

[Kentucky Street Boys
Form Co-operative Club

is used for incidentals. If the per-
son decides to quit at the end of
the year, $15 is refunded. A sopho-
more joining the group now would
live there three years and receive
$5 at graduation. Besides this fee,
the boys expect to pay about $17
per month for living expenses,
which include room, board, elec-
tricity, water, and other utilities.
If the members find a surplus in
the treasury at the end of the year,
it is divided. A deficit’ is similarly
treated.”

The club plans ‘to have an open
house in the near future and also
hopes to have teams on the intra-
mural field this fall. At the present
time five freshmen, six sophomores,
one junior, six seniors and two
graduate students constitute the
group. The officers are now ac-
cepting applications to fill any
cancies that may occur at the
of this semester and to take
place of those graduating in
spring.

Men’s co-operative houses have
proved successful on many other
college campuses, but this is the
first time that a 100 per cent self-
sufficing group has set up house-
keeping on a large scale at the Uni-

va-

pictures are worth one million words.

was conducted among the persons
reviewing the exhibit. “Evening,” by
Fred Trussler, awarded third prize
by the judges in the pictorial di-
vision, won the popularity poll-and
a prize of $100.00. Following in the
popular ballot were “Just a Shower”
by C. D. Ryan, and “The Market
Goes Up” by Charles P. Regens-
burg.

Plan Other Exhibits

If you like mountain scenes, cool
lakes, dimpled children and clouds,
or if you are interested in photo-
graphy at all, you can spend a de-

lounge one of these hot afternoons.
The exhibit is free and open to the
public.

This is the first of several ex-
hibits secured by the Camera Club.
Last year the club sponsored a con-
test of its own among the club
members, besides securing several
travelling displays.

R.0.T.C. Draws
More Students

* Enrollment Breaks All
Records; Two New Pla-
toons Added

Enrollment in the R.O.T.C. unit
this year is the largest in the history
of the University, and is expected to
exceed last year’s number of 370 by
80 men, according to Col, Karl F.
Baldwin. “We had 438 enrollment
cards on Wednesday night, and there
are.still more coming in,” Colonel
Baldwin said yesterday.

 

The cadet corps will be initially
organized into 14 platoons, each
commanded by first lieutenant
This is an increase of two platoons
over last year.

Formation of the regiment will
take place about Dec. 1. No regiment
has been maintained in former years.
The unit has consisted of two sepa-
rate battalions. Organization and
drill will begin next Wednesday at
4:30 p.m»

“There seems to be unusual in-
terest in R.O.T.C. this year,” he con-
tinued. “Most surprising is the large
number of law students enrolled in
the basic course. The number of
engineering students and freshmen
also is above last year’s enrollment.”

Advanced course allotments have
been increased from 85 to 105. Colo-
nel Baldwin expects the full allct-
ment to be obtained.

Sgt. William Kollender, assistant
instructor of ‘military science, has
been checking out uniforms steadily
from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. for the
past two days. More than 300 stu-
denis have checked out their uni-
forms since Tuesday. One hundred
new uniforms have been purchased.
The cadets will also wear new cap
ornaments this year.

‘Vow Allegiance
To University _
In Traditional Rite

_ By Reginald Buxton,

c’40

Marching four abreast, more than 1,300 freshmen and new
students trekked last night from the firebasket ceremony on
North College hill to the Memorial Stadium for the 16th annual

induction services.

Preliminary to the services in the Stadium, the freshmen met
on the hill near Corbin hall to hear the early history of the Uni-
versity related by F. E. Melvin, professor of history. For the
first time—officially—the new students sang the Alma Mater

and gave voice to the famous Rock Chalk yell.

They saw the

members of the Mortar Board, senior women’s honor organiza-
tion, light the torch from the firebasket.
The freshmen were ushered to their seats in front of the

rostrum while the University®

band played a stately proces-
sional. Chancellor Malott then
explained the relation of the
first fire on North College hill in
1854 built by early Lawrence set-
tlers to the firebasket and the blaze
on Mount Oread. He traced the
tradition back to the Greek torch
race and to the burning bush of
Biblical history.

W. L. Burdick, professor of law,
read to the audience from the
scriptures concerning the burning
bush. The significance of the Uni-
versity seal was interpreted by
Miss Hannah: Oliver who is cele-
brating her 50th year of teaching
at the University.

Following the speakers’ remarks
came a fanfare of trumpets which
signaled the lighting of the torch
from the cairn on Mount

the race with the lighted torch

}down the hill into the stadium, and

the lighting of the fire in the bas-
ket on the speakers’ platform.
Members of Sachem, senior men’s
honor organization, carried the
flaming torch.

After the lighting of the fire, the
Chancellor read the Athenian oath,
a pledge to truth and knowledge,
which: was repeated by the fresh-
man class.

The University colors were carried
to the front of the rostrum where
they were saluted by the audience.
The Alma Mater was then sung fol-
lowed by the Rock Chalk.

Fred Ellsworth, alumni. secretary,
represented the alumni of the Uni-
versity. Representatives of the clas-
ses were: Graduates, Gevene Lan-
dreth and John Hocevor; seniors,
Henry Schwaller, and Betty Bod-
dington; juniors, Jim Burdge and
June Aumiller; sophomores, Max
Howard and June Moyer; freshmen,
Seward Fleeson and Jean Bailey.

manager, and Dorothy Schroeter, c’42.

For the first time the organization is being divided into 10
districts to facilitate activity. Primary object of the districting

v Kansan Comment ¥

Double Trouble
On Thanksgiving

Tradition took it on the chin when President
Roosevelt moved up Thanksgiving Day a week.
Because Democratic governors seconded the
President’s choice of Nov. 23 and Republican
state executives decreed the expected Nov. 30
observance, many inter-state school rivals, such
‘as Kansas and Missouri, face ihe problem of
selecting a compromise occasion.

Those who liked to use the phrase “the mid-
west’s blue-ribbon Turkey-Day classic,” of
course, will be sore either at President Roose-
velt, Governor Ratner or Governor Stark. But
the date of the game actually is very unimpor-
tant. Except for tradition lovers, a Saturday
date will have few opponents.

There should be equally as entertaining
football presented on Saturday as on Thursday.
The band, in all probability, will perform bet-
ter after it recovers from an attack of indiges-
tion. Certainly, the homecoming alumni can get
just as happy or blue on one day as on another.

Anyway, a Saturday date has much to rec-
ommend it. Students should find it more con-
venient to attend the contest either on Nov. 25
or on.Dec. 2 than on Thanksgiving Day. In the
case of Kansas students, they will be still in
school on the former and just returning from
vacation on the latter. They will, therefore, be
able both to eat Turkey with the folks and see
the game.

If the conflicting dates affect enough schools,
Americans may eventually think of Thanksgiv-
ing Day in terms of the Pilgrims instead of the
all-Americans. We say let the football players
have their Turkey!

Ninth Chancellor
Inaugurated

Today Deane Waldo Malott will be inaug-
urated Chancellor of the University, ninth in a
line of distinguished men who have headed the
University during its seventy-five years of life.
This is a memorable day on our campus, for
it is the beginning of a new regime headed by
a capable and talented man who is grounded in
Hill traditions acquired as a graduate of this
University.

We anticipate a long and honored term for
Deane Malott, who succeeds our much-beloved
Chancellor Lindley. The student body pledges
the same. cooperation and loyalty to the new
Chancellor that he pledges to the University of
Kansas.

Why doesn’t the University of Kansas have
a permanent men’s dramatic club like the Har-
vard Hasty Pudding club? The success of
“The Drunkard” put on last spring by the K.
club is evidence of interest and student sup-
port.

The fate of Poland is an unhappy one, and

- would surely teach everybody to be nice to mi-

norities and Hitler, if Czechoslovakia hadn’t
tried that line.
