17 NEW KU KU's----
New members will be required to wear sweaters backwards tomorrow, and to carry signs around their necks. During the day each initiate must collect signatures of five active members on a card. The active member may use his discretion as to what the new man must do, such as sing a song or recite a poem, before he will sign the card.
The new men will be required to attend the mid-week and according to all reports they will furnish the dancers with a little entertainment along with the band. The final part of the ordeal will take place at 10 o'clock tomorrow night when the group meets on the east side of Fraser hall.
Members of the club will be required to wear their sweaters all day, and Edwards urged that all members who could possibly do so attend the mid-week.
Bill Collinson, business senior, was elected secretary of the group when the position was left vacant by the failure of Andy Speer to return to school.
Under the merit system voted last night each member will be required to attend all rallies, meetings, games, and other special University functions. Three unexcused absences in a year will automatically remove a man's name from the roll call of the organization.
Edwards stressed the fact that the KuKu's are only a small part of the University. He said, "The team practices at least three hours a day. We can surely give them three hours a week of our time. This goes for every member of the student body. The KuKu's and the Jay Jane's will lead the student body in pep activities, but they can't do much without the support of the rest of the students."
There are now 60 KuKu's. Last year the total membership was 75.
ACTIVITY TAX---
(continued from page one)
empt from any tax of this kind.
Because of a mistake made by the Treasury Department of the Internal Revenue Service in Wichita, Kansas, exactly 300 students have paid this tax unnecessarily, 29 voluntarily. The other 271 paid the tax at the table when they received their book or at the business office when they paid their fees, on or since Friday morning at 11 o'clock. All tax paid prior to Oct. 1 will be refunded.
Mr. Klooz said that the reason for this error was a letter from W. H. Burke, Collector, Treasury Department, Internal Revenue Service, Wichita, Kansas; dated Sept. 25 and received last Friday morning by Mr. Klooz. This letter stated that the tax must be collected, following the passage of the bill. In another letter received this morning, Mr. Burke retracted his former statement and said that the tax is not to be collected except from students receiving their books or paying their fees on or after tomorrow. It has been estimated that there will be approximately 100 such students.

Plans call for a three-story brick structure capable of housing 32 men. This additional room will make it possible for the University to house 152 men.
Space in Jolliffe hall will be divided into a dining room, kitchen, laundry, food storage, and recreation rooms. A living room, library, proctor suite, and house matron's quarters will be on first floor; 11 two-man studies will be on second; and 5 two-man studies and two dormitories will be on third.
Last year,was the first year for men's scholarship cooperative dormitories here at the University. It is hoped the new hall will be ready for occupancy by the beginning of school next fall.
It was felt that difficulties in obtaining needed materials might delay operations. With this in mind, purchase of the structural steel has already been made. It will be furnished the contractors by the owners.

Green, of Lawrence; Peterson Const. co. of Calina; George Senne Const. co., George Rinner, Bowers Const. co., M. W. Watson Const. co., and J. A. Lungren & son Const. cold of Salina; George co. of Kansas City, Mo.

Those bidding for the electrical wiring contract are Kennedy Plumbing company, the Eugene Brune Plumbing company, and the L. H. Rose Plumbing and Electrical Service, all of Lawrence.

[continued from page 91]
The seven judges who will select new leaders by an elimination process are Edwards; David Watermuller, acting president of the Men's Student Council; Doris Twente, president of W.S.G.A.; Genevieve Harman, president of the Jay Jane's; Vernon McKale, head of Owl Society; and Fred Robertson, head of Sachem.
Each applicant must give two yells in front of the judges, one the Rock Chalk.
Edwards added that women aspirants would have as good a chance as men. Of the four freshmen to be selected, two will probably be of each sex, he said. The sophomore chosen will fill the vacancy left on the squad when Mary Ellen Brown, a freshman leader of last year, failed to return to school.
MALOTT RALLIES----
(continued from page one) service, the action, needed to preserve our way of life?
"You are not fulfilling your jobs unless each of you contributes now to this colossal task," Malott continued. According to the Chancellor the United States is faced with a choice of unpleasant alternatives—a German victory, for which the United States is in no way prepared, or the discomforts of a war economy.
The Chancellor went on to say that "the American people as a whole have not faced this, and if it is not faced promptly it may be too late."
