Dr. T. Z. Koo To Give Address At Convocation
Noted Chinese Traveler Speaker Here in 1932 Returns to the University In Popular Role
Dr. T. Z. Koo, Chinese traveler and Dr. student, will address an all-student convocation tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock in the University Atlantium on the subject, "Youth Building a New World." As a speaker here in 1982, Dr. Koo of the courses of strife in Manhattan has exceptional fame with the audience.
As one of three representatives of the Chinese people he attended the second opium conference called in Switzerland in 1925 by the League of Nations, and in that year he visited England to meet with students at Manchester. An observer at the time said "The outstanding conference is the recent conference of the Student Christian Movement in Manchester, by common consent, was T. Z. Koo of China."
In his discussion of the Manchurian problem at a convention here in 1982 Koo cited four main causes of disention, namely, the growing economic rivalry between China and Japan, the heavy taxation on China, the possession of land, treaty rights of Japan, and the difference in the political parties of the Chinese and Japanese.

Feminine hair-dress has always been a pain in the neck but when it becomes menacing and dangerous to the lives of famous and respected male graduates, there is a need for masculine creature-outs. The story goes like

Luba turned her head with much concern to show Lyman the posterview and proceeded to collide with a parked car. That's where the pain in the neck comes in. Lyman got it by taking a first class snack on the looed.

It seems one of the college boys phoned her the other evening (can you believe it?). Upon hearing his name she realized she didn't want him to know that she was in. Thinkingrapkily all, all, she replied: "No, I'm not here."

The College has the largest number with 2,515, followed by the Engineering school with 631. The School of Fine Arts is next with 313 enrolled, with the Graduate School claiming fourth with 403. The School of Business had an enrollment this year 230 students. The School of Law has 131 enrolled this semester.
Although some of the more popular courses on the Hill have reached a figure much larger than ever before there has been no overcrowding in any course. Many students are any shortage of rooms. The increase has been evenly divided throughout the four classes, thus easing the congestion which might have resulted in the increase be chiefly in the freshman group. This distribution has permitted the schools to about the same depth with little difficulty or inconvenience.
