Lawson, dean of the College; F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law; Frank Stockton, dean of the School of Business; and F. A. Russell, professor of civil engineering, discuss the possibilities in their particular fields and costs of attending college.
The conference opened Friday at 5 p.m. with registration. A rally at the home of E. E. Bayles, associate professor of education, and a bowl- tournament followed.
Saturday's schedule included discussion groups and a luncheon at 12:30 in the English room of the Memorial Union building. In the afternoon there was a business meeting and a basketball tournament, followed by a dance in the Kansas room that evening.
Today's schedule includes a meeting of the executive council at which plans for the next regional conference will be discussed. This meeting will be held in Kansas City July 14, Witan's anniversary of organization. The group will then attend church.

Foster Attends Registrars' Meet
The association discussed the various aspects of registration and the differences in systems used by college registrars' offices throughout the United States, Foster said. He went to the meet as a member of its committee on appraisal. In 1914, he served as national president of the organization.
The association has just released its publication, the "Journal of the American Association of Collegiate Registrars," for the month of April. The book contains statistics and articles on directorship of student welfare, and a directory of all the college registrars who are members of the association.
Weekend guests at the Sigma Phi Epsilon house were Frank Ewing, 39, and Bill Robertson, both of Esancia, New Mexico.

Men Don Shorts To Be Carhops
Dallas, Texas. April 27—(UP)—Broad-shouldered young men wearing smiles—and blue, white and striped silk shorts—took their places today along with scantily clad girl carhops in Dallas drive-in taverns.
The girls, their ranks not yet seriously reduced by hiring of male competitors, thought the boys looked "just too cute."
So did dozens of women customers. Business, reported by three stands, was booming, at least from the feminine trade.
The whole thing started when police chief Welch received complaints of the brevity of costumes worn by girl tavern employees. He found them scanty all right—including some lassies in grass haulahula-skirts—but also reported he saw some women customers sipping beer whose apparel, or lack of it, shamed the girls.
Today husky youths greeted the drive-in trade at three beer and soft drink stands with well-muscled, hairy legs stretching 'in all their glory from silk and satin shorts, some with blue piping on white, and some striped blue and white.
The boys, required to be at least six feet tall, good-looking and with a winning smile, wore white sweat-shirts and cowboy boots.
Guide High School to Careers
A "Career Clinic"—educational and vocational guidance conferences—were held yesterday afternoon at Lawrence Liberty Memorial High School.
Thirty-two faculty members from the University, representing nearly every possible vocation, conducted the conferences, which were divided in two sessions—from 1 o'clock to 2, and from 2 to 3. Following these sessions, individual conferences were held for those desiring them.

nity that presents the new song best. It has also been suggested that the students make a definite effort to interest their parents and friends in the broadcast on May 3. If every University student passed the information on to at least one other person the possibilities of success for the new song would be appreciably increased, Ellsworth said.

He has been carrying on almost constant correspondence with Waring, and is thoroughly interested in seeing that proper appreciation be shown for the efforts of the songwriter. Waring, in one of his letters, seemed appalled with the interest shown by the University students, and promised that he intended to repay with the best song he has written for any school in the country.
