New Group Named Jayhawk Brotherhood
.
"Jayhawk Brotherhood" was the name chosen by an anti-segregation group which met yesterday.
It was chosen after a 25-minute deliberation which included suggested names such as "Freedom Group," "Human Effort," "Understanding," "Brotherhood League," and "Society for Colorless Cooking." The last name was given no serious consideration, but was offered by George Herman, instructor of English, to denote the "primary object of this organization, which is to open up Lawrence restaurants to Negroes."
The group discussed connotations and denotations of names that would show purposes of the group and how they could be incorporated into the name. It was decided that any names containing "Society," "League," and "Fellowship" might be considered left-wing. Other names were described as pretentious limiting, innocuous, emotionally sterotyped, factional, and abstract.
It was then that Dr. Calvin Vanderwerf, professor of chemistry, proposed "Jayhawk Brotherhood," which was approved unanimously by the group.
James Blair, college senior and temporary chairman, outlined purposes of the group. "The University has a policy of non-segregation but can't fight discrimination and prejudice in a direct way," he said. "Segregation must be fought by the students involved," he said, adding that "we must integrate through organization."
Blair said the group needed no charter as yet, but "we will set up rules as we need them." He said the group should "arouse opinion so the public knows that a problem is being faced and that we chance to declare themselves one way or the other on discrimination" he said.
Blair appointed various committees to investigate segregation problems.

Strong Thetas Smash Pi Phis 7-6
Rv STAN HAMILTON
A last ditch effort by Pi Beta Phi sorority fell short Friday afternoon and Kappa Alpha Theta sorority eked out a 7-6 decision in the second annual "Powder Puff" touch football game, which Pi Phi won last year.
A pair of speedy sophomores (Mr. Sikes—take note) combined talents to score the Theta TD after the two teams had battled up and down the field through the first 20 minutes.
Quarterback Phyllis Springer, who is not on an athletic scholarship, faded back to throw, and after evading the rushing Fielder Jake Manggi, faced Margie Campbell who loped about half the length of the field to score.
Betty Lu Gard, junior letterwoman, was called off the Theta bench for the conversion try. She
came through with the poise of an all-American and plunged over, but flabbergasted officials (the athletes were wearing old and assorted "uniforms") said Theta was off-side. On the second try Phyllis Springer sprinted around right end for what was eventually the big point.
At this juncture the Theta cheerleading squad of Rog Heiskell, Frank McCollum, Dave Riley, and "Miss" Phil Hahn went wild, so much so that Boris, Phi Kappa Psi pui (1), rambled onto the field and gave the officials another headache—whose team is that on??
But Pi Phi was yet to show its ace in the hole. With Coach Gil Reich prancing up and down the sidelines shouting instructions, Annie McFarlin, a promising newcomer who has two more years of eligibility, intercepted a long Theta pass and was stopped about four yards shy of the goal line by Miss Gard.
Here the Thetas stiffened, took off their protective mittens, and held their opponents on downs.
The next time Pi Phl got its hands on the ball quarterback Nancy Dockum started firing passes to any and all teammates who could hold onto them in the 40-degree weather. Finally Georgann Vandenberg, who was playing her last game for the Arrow house, took a pitchout and scooped some six yards around end for the touchdown, but the conversion try was turned back.
The king, selected by lot, was Al Hyer, a college sophomore from Sigma Nu fraternity, but he was forgotten by the aching and bruised contestants when the game ended.
