What promises to be one of the biggest enrollments in the history of the University of Kansas will get under way today with the registration of students strating at 8:30 a.m. Monday and running through Tuesday.
The successful Kansas wheat crop the CSEP increased allotment, the overwhelming demands for student employment and the general borrowment burden on students to cause observers to predict an upswelling in the University's enrollment total.
To aid new students in problems of registration, enrollment and general orientation during their first few days on the campus, a special freshman program has been planned. "Freshman Week" will begin Saturday, Sept. 12, by which time all new students must be on the campus.
The program for "Freshman Week" call for certain exercises at which attendance is required. Information concerning these meeting may be found elsewhere on this page. No freshman can afford to allow anything to interfere with his attendance at these meetings.
Physical Exams Required
All new students are required to take a physical examination before enrollment. Appointments for this examination must be made at least two weeks earlier the time of admission of the stu-

"Rushees ain't so naive as they seem at least not some."—Hamlin.
It is reputed that as many as 25 runeses are of the perennial variety. They come up in 1368 the same as they do in 1047, and through the entire week for the purpose of entertainment only, then return to their various and sundry domenies to leave University thoughts out until the next rush week rolls around.
These girls are the blaze sophisticates of a great system that sends girls rushing from house to house signifying their desire for the more difficult much and to heavy clothing. They smoke in front of the newspaper photographers unashamedly, make no remarks such as "wouldn't mamma be better at painting" or "dealer was heard to jitter."
Enough about rush week, except to say that there will be no disappointed girls this year, since each and every one of the approximately 175 received dates of some sort or another and so they are all very happy. None can be found until for placement in some security. Momma should be proud of that.
Silly questions from silly rubies: "Where is the housemother?" At the housemother's door she dared peering in corners and on the stair landings trying to find her, as though a housemother were something that a sorority stuffed and put out only during her time at school. "What would your formal this morning or this afternoon?"
"Aren't college boys cute?" --Every time I hear a question like that I want to go into the first tap dance lesson. I do not want to be distracted by a shuffle of the foot and raising

A special meeting of the Men's Student Council will be called by John Phillip, president of the organization during the week of Sept. 14 for preliminary organization and to make definite plans for student government activities for the coming year. The definite date will be announced later.
Phillips to Call Special Session Of Men's Council
Three important committees will be elected, the parking committee, whose function is to supervise and regulate traffic conditions on the Hill, the Council executive committee, and the students for membership on the student-faculty committee on student relations.
The schedule for regular meetings of the Council will also be made out at this time.
Look Forward to Busy Year
Look forward to Bishop Ylayar.
"I am looking forward to a year of hard work and challenge," Phillips said today. "All the Council members are eager, enthusiastic and full of ideas. The even party division should produce an intelligent and searching debate on all subjects and certainly will reveal the worst course open to the Council. With such a favourable result, I would recommend"
The M.S.C. will begin the year with several bills pending and much important unfinished business from last year hung fire.
Notable among the bills pending is the Intramural Frolic measure which has been returned from the Chancellor's office with suggestions added and which is due, since it is considered a non-partisan measure, for passage.
Consider Booking Agency
According to Phillips, the bill concerning the orchestral booking agency, also considered a non-partisan issue, will probably be vetoed on early in the
One of the most important issues confronting the Council is the Freshman traditions problem. No definite action has been taken by the committee under the leadership of Dean Moorhead but arrangements are being made whereby this situation may be met at an early date.
Council Control Questionable
Eligibility and the coming Freshman election will be the deciding factor in the TPSL-Pacachanac fight for the Council majority, still undecided from which to elect. The standings are 13 to 11 with the Progressive Student Government League holding the majority. However the eligibility of members of both parties will un doubtably be contested and the outcome of this and the outcome of the Freshman election may or may not be decided by the Council. The early meetings of the council will settle this condition.
The Women's Self Governing Association will begin the year's activities in a meeting tentatively set for Tuesday. Sept. 15. Plans for revision of the Association's constitution have been going on during the summer.
Council Control Questionable
The "K" book, student handbook published and distributed by the Y.W.C.A. and the Y.M.C.A., inadvertently omitted the name of the Sigma Kappa sorority from the listed organized houses.

It is emphasized that whether or not the student deserves credit for work with the organizations, he must enroll regularly in the subject.
In most of the schools of the University one hour credit is allowed for a semester's work with the K. U. Symposium. In some cases it is allowed for work with the Little Symphony.
Last year 306 pledges were "yelled" in Sunday night when the total was 418. Huson was doubtful if the number of men converted to the war effort.
Fraternities Rush
Three Hundred Men
Registrations at 1 o'clock
Friday Show Increase
But Not as Expected
Fraternity hacking registrations were lagging behind expectations as approximately 30 men at 12 o'clock Friday had signified their willingness to become affiliated with a organization. However this is an increase over last year when at the same time 260 had registered. Steve Huston, president of the Meek Pan-Holstein Council, predicted not over 350 would register for rousing
No infractions of rushing rules had been reported in the early hours of campaigning for members. Last year the committee of five, headed by the Dean of Men, whose duties are to bear and determine any controversy concerning the election of a president, remained idle as alone of the 16 fraternities resorted to unfair means.

All subsequent dates must be kept unless broken by telephone conversation with the rushie or with the rushie if the organization with which the date is broken so demands

Prominent among the rushing and pledging rules is that an organization is habile for a fifty dollar fine they should fail to have the rudderie available within ten minutes after another fraternity calls.
Violation of a rule by the rubeber prevents him from pledging an fraternity until the beginning of the next school year.

All students should be at work by Sept. 18.
The students will work in about 75 different departments of the University and in non-profit public organizations in the town of Lawrence. This latter classification includes such organizations as the public schools, public health department, library, Red Cross, Chamber of Commerce, Boy Scouts, and so forth. These schools are also allowed to teach the type of work involving with their major studies in college so that the student may benefit from actual experience in his chosen field.

Promise Fun To Campus Socialites
John Paul, Dance Manager, Assures Entertainment at Varieties
A busy season of dancing and parties will keep Mt. Oread socialites equally entertained, according to John Paul, newly appointed dance managers for the University dances and Varsities.
"Although definite plans are tentatives, I can promise that the mid-weeks and week-end dances will lose none of their spirit," Paul said today. "The student participation in between the weeks will well received last year that arrangements are being made to continue this sort of thing, on a larger scale if possible, in the coming fall season. I will cooperate with the Student Council in their plans for an association of mid-western colleges, having really big boards to the campus."
The first all-University social event takes place at the opening Varsity to be held at the Memorial Union building on Monday night from 9 to 12. Toulouse Kuhn's Orchestra will provide the music, and the price will be 75 cents.

Ten Organized Houses Choose Twenty-Seven More Rushees Than Last Year But List Is Not as Large as Was Expected: No Infraction of Rules Disclosed
By William Downs, Managing Editor
Ten University sororites called in their packs as the annual chase for rushes ended today with the announced lists of prize game.
Kappa Alpha Theta and Kappa Kappa Gamma led the list in the number of pledges, each getting 22. Pi Beta Pi was third with 69 pledges.
RUSH WEEK NOTES
One Hundred and fifty-nine girls were anurd out of the 222 rushes who were里赦 onto Mt. Oread. This number is not as large as it was expected to be. However it is an increase of 27 over the number pledged last year.
"Huh?" asked the other intelligently. "why?"
Two rushees entered the Sigma Kappa house the other day. The house mother smiled.
"Hi, Toots," said one of the girls. Her companion was shocked. "Why, that's the house mother," she declared, biting. "You shouldn't talk like that."
The Alpha Gamma Delta's had a mysterious case of switched groceries. It appears that the Sigma Kappa house received the A.G.D.'s groceries, and probably vice-versa. Net result: the calorie count was horribly mixed.
"I don't know," the fellow confessed,
"but I'm supposed to call a fraternary."
Then there's the boy who called up the Alpha Delta Pi house and gave his name.
"Well, what's her name?" queried the girl who had answered.
"I," declared the lad, "am supposed to call and ask for somebody."
"Fraternary?" the puzzled co-ed asked. "Oh, you mean—well, this is a sorority."
"Is that the same thing for girls
a fraternary is for boys?"
The A D R
"Do you know who I should call?" the voice inquired.
This for the co-ed was the last straw. She hung up the phone right in his ear.
The Chi Omega's had nothing but a bit of propaganda to offer. It's a new knock-knock concerning the Gamma one. The Phi who? Phi who? Phi dhg one. The Phi who? Phi dhg one.
The Gamma Phi's, upon learning of this, stated they would think up, however.
"We love them too much to do anything like that," stated the Gamma Phi.
There's a rusheshe at the Alpha Omni Pi house whose name is so much like a boy's that she got a data bid from the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity.
Class work in all schools of the University begins Thursday, Sept. 17.

Guzzlers and tipliers will be much surprised, not to say chagrined, abashed and downright stunned. After midnight to be informed that the city fathers of Lawrence decided early this summer that this form of beverage would be introduced at the start of a new day.
Not only is the mildly exhilarating 3.2 to 6 per cent brew forbidden to pass over the counters after this deadline but "pale," a beer of exceedingly low alcohol content in its natural state also "shall not pass."
Necessity of such an action followed agitation from residents of the south side who complained of feared noises enanating from beer porsters to disturb their slumber.
Suggestions on how to obtain a beaker of foaming brie after midnight are already pouring in the fridge, which advises installation of individual ice boxes in to and to order up before 12 o'clock and keep the beer at your table. One establishment is completing starting a new place outside of the city limits.
821 and Gamma Fri Beta and Alpha Chi Omega were tied for fourth with 20 each.
Rushing progressed smoother than was expected under the complicated rules initiated last year by the Women's Pan-Hellenic Society. To Betty Ruth Smith and her assistants goes the credit for the handling of one of the largest groups of nudists seen on the island.
Miss Elizabeth Mogur, adviser of women, said today, "I feel that considering the number of rushes we have, everything went very smooth. The sororites cooperated wonderfully and so far as I know at this time, there has been no difficulty or any infraction of rules that might lead to compi-
