Conditions Point to Rise In Enrollment Total This Fall
Wheat Crop, CSEP, Employment Situations and Increased Activity in Administrative Offices Lead Observers to Predict Possible Increase of Students; Registration Instructions Given
Although increased enrollment this fall is not a certainty, the pronounced pre-registration activity in those offices open to incoming students seems to indicate that Mt. Oread will have more people than last year. Last year enrollment was the greatest in the history of the University and there seems to be a good chance that even this record will be topped this fall.
Kansas' great wheat crop is being reflected in the number of freshman transcripts that are being filled with George O. Foster, Peter J. Noguchi and Michael W. Schmidt.
He wants you to kindly follow.
He now has on his desk fully 200 more freshman transcripts than usual at this time of year. His reason for crediting wheat for the increase is the fact that so many of the prospective students give R.F.D. addresses.
More applications have been received for CSSEP jobs, than ever before and more students have been placed in that work than was done at this time last year. The student employment bureau asks students to place a pleasing student looking for jobs, the recruiter, his student adviser, is buster than he has been for some years, answering inquiries and giving interviews. "The business office has been kept busy."

The Registrar Speaks
If the student entering college will realize clearly that a college Education vastly increases his opportunities and at the same time increases his obligation to serve his fellows, he will meet less disappointment, make greater progress than he will otherwise. It is easier to learn how to like a living than it is to learn how to live. A "pom" person who knows how to live is happier than a "sibl" man who does. College education the tight suit emphasizes this fact and the student to learn to apply the principles upon which the fact is based.

By DAVE HAMLIN, c37
"Names are of frimal value." — Hamlin.
I always think it is nice and copy to start out a column with a quotation, not two? It suggests that feeling of intimacy with the great and near great that we all want to attain. Of course you might say that starting it with just any quotation is wrong. That, exactly, is my attitude and so I have chosen one of them. I suppose that which she is so fond—i cuddle all my little wisdom drops and save them for noiterary.
Calendar
There must be a definite reason for any quotation just as there is with the one above. This, above all, is a gross column. Your aim as a student is to get your name in or out just as you please. If you are one of those who prefer your name to stand out, you should be emulating if it does not appear. If you desire your name out, you can feel happier when it appears by believing that no one read it anyway.
As runners, you might do just as the other rushes you do and ask the house mother or the rush captain or someone just how they managed to keep their lawns looking so nice when your is so dried up at home. The answer so obviously is, "Oh, we keep a man to look after those meals." Of course you can make a mental question to yourself and ask if you were on a farm under a certainty or whether the treasury actually did pay for the up keep of the place in the summer.
.
The answer to that question is also obvious but please laugh quietly to yourself, that is if you intend to start helping foot the bills.
Then, you will marvel at the cleanliness of the houses you visit. Aren't they marvelous bits of cleanliness? Surely they are, but look at the hands of your hostesses. If they have that dishabpour you have solved that little problem.

Frosh Election Becomes Important For First Time
Freshmen Are Granted Votes in Men's Student Council by Last Year's New Ruling
Hill politics for men students will get mer way with a bang this year with he freshman election soon, after school senior.
The two political parties on the campus, the Pachacamac's, and the PSGL's, have platforms some similar and somewhat vague. Both are arriving for the non-fraternity vote.
**Amendment Drew Powers**
At the time of his election for the freshman election last year, Charles Anderson, then president of the PSGL party, asserted that the "freshman class officers were in offices only." This statement, of course, afforded much only insight into the office structure, and a campaign started to give them a vote on the council, and make the office more of an office. This campaign resulted in the passing of a law thatapos;s fasting election which gave both the first and second members class offices a vote.
Hercetofera, the election of the freethief class students shortly after school begins has been more or less a routine occurrence among any but the freethiefs.
Anderson Draws Fire
Abs at the last election the PSG1 obtained a one vote majority, not counting the sophomore class president, who will not be allowed to vote until after the coming freshman election. The sophomore president is a Pachiesman, which makes it impossible for the PSG1, and makes the election of the freshman class officers all-important.
One Vote Majority Either Way
Should the Pacchamenas win out, it will give them a one majority in the council. Should the PSGLS elect their choice, it will do likewise for them. At any rate the freshmen will get their baptism of fire very early this year, and all students will be treated to the sight of hand bills, broadsides, and all hand gestures in class as grazing our campus early in the fall in stead of having to wait until spring.
All of this is problematical in a way. Perhaps some of the ones who were elected to office last spring will not return to school this year, or they may be forced to attend summer camp or point of interest of others to take their places. But just suppose they all return.
The Daily Kansan this year is offering $1 worth of want ads to each subscriber in order to facilitate student living.
The ads may be used for any purpose. At the beginning of school, the search for rooms, books, etc., becomes so intense, this project has been set forth as a means of alleviation.
A subscription blank is found elsewhere in the Kansai. You will be approached by a student solicitor on the campus. Either means will bring you the want ad privilege.
A coupon will be given with each subscription receipt which will enable the student to insert their order into any insertions or any other combination that can be obtained from the schedule of rates shown in the receipt.
Ludwig Is First Of Outstanding Men To Speak Here
Earl Ludwig, famous German biographer and author of such notable books as "Napoleon," and "Bismarck," will open the University Lecture Series, and present four of the most prominent men in the contemporary world of art and letters. This year's list of speakers promises to be the most interesting ever.
The second speaker to lecture will be William Hard, radio commentator and authority of world affairs. Hard will dissipate his energy in a speech titled "Economic Conditions in the Scandinavian Countries." These countries have gained international renown for their resistance to the invasion that has ravaged the world past six years.
BULLETIN
THE DAILY KANSAN

His lecture will be titled "Moral Obligation to be Intelligent."

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, the paper you are now reading, gathers, edits and organizes this news exclusively on the campus and presents "your college education day by day."

A LETTER
We are about to attempt to sell you the University Daily Konsan for the coming year.
We are setting ourselves to the job of publishing the best daily paper under the Kansan nameplate in its 26 years of existence.
With the industrious staff which we are fortunate in having, we believe that we can write, print, and deliver to you the best college paper in the country.
During the past summer the Kansan was chosen for the cover decoration for a book written by a German author entitled "American Youth Writes Newspapers." The paper was chosen as an example.
The scope of Kansan news will be the widest in history. European correspondence first, hand will come from former students. The campus news will be "covered" completely. Our United Press wire will bring to us news later than to any other paper in this territory. Every morning you can have the latest campus and national news available.
You will find the style of our writers clear and often provocative, even to the point where you wish to publish a reply. You have always that privilege.
You will want the best and finest in clothes, shows, and sundry merchandise and service. Our advertisers are tried and trusted. Their merchandise has proven its worth to University students for years.
There is no faculty or other membership on the Daily Kansan. The policies are left entirely to her student board, editors, and publisher. There are no sacred cows. You will find the editors and staff of your paper, the Daily Kansan, thinking like you. You will like it
Therefore we pledge ourselves to this: that nothing shall deter us from making the New Kansan the best college paper in the country and from serving your interests.
We proudly point to our accomplishment in editorial-news campaigns of last year; the building of the library steps, which had been left unfinished for 11 years.
We should like to have you buy a subscription to the Daily Kansas. You can read it as you sip your coffee.

quarters, the office of the new Sour Owl is located. The Y.M.C.A. will occupy the room once used by the student governing organizations. The W.S.G.A. book exchange will have service windows on the hall for facilitating lakes. The billboard room has been redecorated. The stairway has been painted and the main lounge has been renovated and partially redecorated. Pictures, two of them in the mural, have been hung. They were painted by Paul Mamon, graduate of the University School of Fine Arts and PWA artist.
The ballroom is in fine shape for the first official Varaty, the evening of Monday, September 14.
Open house to all old and new students of the University will be on Wednesday, Sept. 16. A free dance will be given in the latter part of the evening. Mr. Cochrane invites everyone to inspect the building in its new array.
Active campus life as will be the classes and lectures that you will attend beginning Sept. 17.
Chancellor's Bolletin Vital
One of the vital features offered
s the "Chancellor's Bulletin," issued daily from the office of Chancellor E. H. Lindley andunning exclusively every morning in the Kansas, Official University happenings, notifications and news of important authorized gatherings are centralized in this Bulletin and are available only in the columns of this newspaper. This feature gives the news of those events that occur at the university's curricular work in the University and subsequently is extremely important to every student.
And genome interest is centered in the complete campus coverage offered by the paper. Student reported, student edited and student selected stories are intended to help students in connection with the unofficial happenings in the wide range associated with the University, its faculty and students. You will read in The Kansan stories of everything from the concerts to the celebration snake dances —from the peace strike to the football game to political conclaves to the varsity舞会.
United Press Service
And you need not miss the wider range of world happenings either for through the direct fire facilities of the United Press comes red-hot news from all over the world covering the revolution in Spain, the disputes in Geneva, happens in Washington, the Presidential election, the strikes in eastern Europe, the development in Michigan, and the important stories off the west coast.
The University Daily Kannan gives its readers metropolitan, up-to-the-minute service and coverage that leaves nothing looking for the student in his knowledge of current news and information. It is the only morning paper in the city of Lawrence.
For humor it has the daily column feature "On the Shin" by a prominent college humorist, well known over the years in the nation. It is for the lighter side of University Life.
Student Operation
But it must be remembered that The Daily Kansan is a student run, student advised and student censored publication. It is counciled, receives suggestions, and accepts criticism from all departments and divisions of the university—but it has no dictator or "sacred oath." It stands as a protector of the student commonwealth and does all that is within its power to protect the students from any exploitation that any orator, political or otherwise, might attempt to exploit. It is also the body those legitimate and proper advantages accessible or due them.
This is accomplished by active campaigning, exposure of misdemeanors, and a definite editorial and news policy. The students rest assured in the sincerity and integrity of The University Daly Kouan as an organ serving their best interests, which are equally governed by fellow members in their class rooms, and organizations.
And the newspaper opens its *Student*
Opinion column for all criticism and
comment that the students may have,
and which are likely or directly connected with the paper.
It is truly an all-student project worthy of the name. The University Daily Kansan feels that every student should know the paper's many benefits, the numerous services and the worthwhile objectives contained in its pages.
