CHANCELLOR TO BE IN CONVOCATION TODAY
First Address to Student Body of Summer Session by Head of Unt'ersity
11:30 HOUR IS POPULAR
Same Time Arrangement for the Shortening of Classes As Last Week
Chancellor E. H. Lindley will give his first official greeting and message to the assemblage of Summer Session students and faculty in convoction this morning. The chapel gathering will be held in Fraser Hall at 11:30 o'clock. Special music has been obtained for this occasion.
In order to make time for the convocation, Director W. H. Johnson has announced similar arrangements for time of closing classes as prevailed. The gathering of classes on the hour or the half hour makes the publication of the schedule shorter confusing but the main shortening the periods from five to ten minutes, as the signal whistle blows, will be carried out.
From all the opinions that he has heard expressed, Director Johnson is convinced that the idea of summer conventation at the 11:30 hour is the most satisfactory. It does away with the many students who have classes in it. As building walking back across the campus before uncheen hour.
The Chancellor has been so busy that he has scarcely had opportunity to get a look in on the Summer Session proceedings. Following his trip to Ohio where he was commencement speaker, he hastened back to participate in the Stadium-Union drive opening at Topeka, nugging a number of addresses at the state capital this week. He has expressed his gratification that the Summer session attendance, approaching the 1920 mark, shows its viability and the兑现ance of the University in the opinion of the people of Kansas.
Several interesting announcements are looked for in convoction, among them being a more detailed report from the social committee on entertainments provided for the remainder of the six weeks' session.
