Haddock and Sandifur Leave Saturday to Enter Olympic Tryouts
Everett L. Bradley, winner of the pentathlon, will not enter the sectional tryouts for the Olympic games to be held at Chicago Saturday with Sandifull and Haddoek, the other Kansas contrasts, as the result of a telegram received this morning canceling the sectional tryouts in his events and allowing him to enter the finals at New York July 7 to 9.
Marshell Haddock, dash man who held a place on the United States team at the Inter-Allied games at aris last year and Edward A. Sandifur, university freshman who smashed the shot put record at Kansas City last winter with a heave of 62.4 yards for entry into the sectional tryouts at Chicago Saturday. Beside the shot, Sandifor also has a good disc for the discus.
If Haddock and Sandifir can place Saturday they will go with Bradley to enter the finals in New York in July. According to Dr. Forrest C. Allen of the department of athletics, Bradley should compete in basketball which calls for ten events than the pentathlon which calls for five. He will enter both events

If someone who knows the concession that protects funds of the University would produce about three hundred dollars, the students in the summer session as well as the people of Lawrence might have a first class "beach" and swimming pot at Potter lake. At present the lake is little more than a fairly respectable mud hole.
THE SUMMER SESSION KANSAN TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 22, 1920
Fifty loads of sand, $100.
Here are the specifications:
Two million gallons of city water,
$190.
Fifty loads of sand, $199.
When asked about the project yesterday, Dr. James Naisimhui plead innocence of any knowledge to as where the money might be found, but said from a sanitary point of view Potter lake would pass muster if well filled.
"The rays of the sun acts as germicidal agents upon the water," he explained, "and last summer the water in Potter lake was looked only slightly further to the water than the water is the worst thing about it now."
And, oh yes! While the keeper of the funds is about it, he should produce enough to buy a good boat. The life guards would be badly hampered now in case of accident, since they have only a canoe.

Miss Elmore to Direct
Hour's Recreation Guaranteed as Absolute Cure of all Ailments
It makes old people young, young people older, thin people fat, fat people thin, and is a positive remedy for chronic dispepsis no matter how far gone their cries may be, or how rotten their dispositions are.

K.C.STORY ABOUTNEVIN DISCREDITED BY BUTLER
Well Known Composer to Leave University After Five Years
The prevailing necessity to cut all expenses to the bone and inaffected call throughout the state for direction in community sang probably explains the board's discontinuance of the office of director of choral extension and professor of confendale in the School of Fine Arts, the work which has been done by Professor Arthur Nevin," said Dean Harold L. Rutledge of the city's Arts yesterday when questioned as to the reliability of a recently published in a Kansas City paper which termed Professor Nevin the victim of the "solo dynasty."
The story went on to say that while the "old dynasty" was passing away at the university, it had succeeded in deposing Professor Nevin before going. Kansas, the article explained, must be hereafter go without community sings as the result of Mr. Nevin's departure.
Prof. Nevin, who is well known as a composer, has been with the University five years. Part of this work was his last book when he was engaged in war work.
Teacher's Pay Based on College Credits
Pay for the Kansas City, Missouri school teachers is now based in part on the number of credits obtained as a result of work taken in the summer session of some college. To the teacher who attends summer school and carries six hours of work, two of which must be educational, a bonus of $100 is given. The teacher, burdened by $2000 the teacher who holds a college degree and has thirty hours additional college work. Many Kansas City teachers are taking summer work here this year, partly as the result of this ruling.

Ever Meet A Ginkgo?
Here's Your Chance
The students at Dartmouth recently refused to adopt the Honor System by a vote of 579 to 436.
On Louisiana Street, close to the University Hospital on the south, is a tree with a peculiar history. It is called the Ginkgo, or Maidenhair tree. It belongs to a very ancient group, and botanists say that it is the only species of its kind in existence. Other species of this group have become extinct for some reason unknown, and this would have if it had not been for the Japanese and Chinese. It was native in these countries, and it their cult of planting around their bark that saved it. Recently a Chicago professor claimed to have found one growing wild in Japan, but when he dug beneath, he found the ruins of a temple, proving that it had been planted.
The Ginkgo belongs to the Conifer, or pine group. It stands straight and tall like the Lombardypoplar, and not a peculiar fan shape, leaves not at all like its cousins, the pines. Only one other tree of this kind can be found in Lawnress, that is in the Griesa Nursery.
PLAY FOR FACULTY-LAW
SUPREMACY THIS WEEK
Names of Prospective Players at Last Divulged by Team Managers
At last report the cards have been stacked and all is in waiting for the law-faulty onhtaught to be stage at McCormick's oak building, on this day of this week.
Dr. Forrest C. Allen in behalf of the faculty aggregation has warned What truth, exponent of the laws to seawear, and be prepared for the dangers of the ocean. His older land lands the idea of defeat at the hands of the faculty.
The date has not been definitely arranged but otherwise all is prepared. Foster or Ferguson will probably act as twirler for the faculty while Verhees with Randall behind the plate will probably administer the "dark ones" to the faculty hatts.
The faculty lineup will probably draw out of the following: Raymond F. Tierney, Sten Foster, Maxwell Forsel, H. B. Hungerfer, F. C. Allen, W. R. Bodenhafer, W. B. Downing, Harold L. Butter, Chester A. Buckner, W. H. Johnson, Raphael G. Wendt, W. R. Smith.
For the laws there will be Clyde Vorkhee, C. B. Randall, A. A. Bell, V. Jackson, Tib. Fleeson, George W. Jackson, E. H. Murphy, and Winston Smith.
Student Help Scarce Machine to do Work
The arrival yesterday at the Journalism Press of several large boxes labeled "Cleveland Folder" marks another victory of machine methods over hand methods. Much bindery work heretofore done by hand in the printing plant will be done on the Cleveland machine which is recognized as the most efficient one on the market. It was purchased by the Journalism Press and cost $2800.
"Prior to last year we use student help in the bindery and did not care to install a folder because we were anxious to give the work to students even though they were slower than a machine would have been," said Superintendent Guy M Pennock yesterday. "But last year student help was not to be found. Students seemed to has played of money without working." So we compelled to put in the machine.
An expert will arrive this week to erect the folder. To get it into the building a portion of the south wall had to be removed.
University Couple Married
The marriage of Miss Madeline Fowler of Perry and Mr. Carl Akers of Junction City took place Saturday at Wamcoe. Both the young people are former K. U. students, Mrs. Akers be a member of Delta Phi Delta, honorary painting sorority Gamma Alpha Epsilon. They will make their home in Junction City where Mr. Akers is in business.
Fifteen junior high school boys left Lawrence Sunday for Emdale, where they will attend the Y. M. C. A. camp for ten days.
COMMITTEE ON STUDENT AFFAIRS IS APPOINTED
Committee is Composed of Six Students and Six Faculty Members
To Handle Student Affairs
Committee Will Consider Any Matter of Student Interest
The Joint Student Affairs Committee for the summer session was announced by Chancellor Strong today. This committee has the governing of all student affairs for the session. There are six faculty members and six student members, which are as follows: Miss Alberta Corbain, chairman, Prof. Arthur MacMurray; His Grace Lmorf, Prof. J. W. Jobeer, Prof. G. Brandel; Mie J. Jacobii, Gbrauet from the faculty, Lucile Rariig, Gaskill, and Anne Stewart are the women on the committee and Clifford Teenney, Clarence Gorrill and Henry McCurdy are the men from the student bdy.
"The purpose of the Committee," said Miss Alberta Corbin, adviser of women, today, "is to discuss freely and frankly any matter pertaining to the general welfare of the University of Kansas." The committee will welcome any suggestion for any reform or improvement which any member of the faculty or student body may suggest. The committee has as its work the betterment of all phases of university life and will try to accomplish some definite reform in the university this summer.
In the winter this committee has practically the same work that it has in the summer but of course it is more extended.
The committee was formed last year because the faculty and student body felt the need of some different form I help in regulating what the Women's Student Government Association and the Men's Student Council were unable to handle. There was a meeting of the students in Prasser Hall last winter, and this form of government was decided upon.
One of the main reasons for the success of the committee is the fact that student body and faculty are both equally represented and in this manner they can discuss matters which are important to them. Neither did they also need see need of reform. Also any injustice to either side may be avoided in this way.
Laws to be Codified By Coming December
"By December, the federal statutes of the United States will be codified," according to Dr. W. L. Burdick of the School of Law who spent several months on a leaf in Washington last year serving as a head nurse in this virus.
"Imagine all of the laws passed by Congress in the last forty-two years, and all of the decisions handed down by the supreme court, in the same length of time, as being set down without any system, and you can realize in a small way, what a great task it is to codify them," he says.
Prof. H. W. Nutt Writes New Book on Education
The Houghton Mifflin Co., of New York, publishers, add the addition of a new book, "The Supervision of Instruction," by Hubert Wiburn Nutt, director of the Orcad Training School and associate professor of education to their "Riverside Textbooks in Education."
The work is termed, "A handbook in principles for training school classes and public school supervisors. It deals with both the "job" of supervision and with the technique of supervision."
The student body of the University of Michigan will set a presedent by selecting the president of the Student Council for the next year at the all campus election. A candidate must be a certain campus opinion toward use of the school auditorium for political speeches.
