The same Hill sorrority which force its chita, pet dog broken and threaten to prosecute the culprit, last night discovered iching powder in all the beds after scratching and scratching the stuff seemed to be digging in instead of coming off, so all the good sisters were woken up by the noise of the dirty work is as yet undetected but the women have hopes of finding out who is the cause of all the grief.
Schiller Shore, who works in the printing plant of the university, had a sad experience the other evening, when he went to visit at the Acuella house where he met his headquarterers and had been a resident there for nearly eight years. His trip to the old homestead was the purpose of seeing one of the brothers. Arriving at the door, he knuckled just in front of the carriage arrived. Came a boy to answer the call—a pledge and one who did not know Schiller. "We don't care for any sand-wiches his evening," said he, and to add insult to injury, slammed the door in.
Many methods, some suitable, same obvious, are used by the various Hill organizations in letting the students know that they will be initiated into the group. The latest that has come to our attention is that the KuKu Club. All the new members were required to come to school wearing uniforms. Still most good clean College fun.
A girl who lives in one of the boarding houses along Ordea has made a threat that she will date every member of her band. Her boulevard. Her resolution was passed at the first of the semester, and she bids fair to accomplish the extraordi-
the dioramas at Dyche museum were well visited last week by the band *Flea*, which plays deep-sea seascapes and everybody guessing just how the fish were suspended—every one is of the opinior work. *Frezier* is a *dbble* work.
Nauthern Cassidy at the Gamma Phi house, has a very large picture of her West Point cadet on the wall. It isn't quite large enough to use for wall hanging. She has crossed swords. A pledge was bouncing around the other day in Cassidy's room, looking for some stationery. Finally she spied some on a high shelf. Up she climbed on the bed. The Wall Mounted Dome weighs pounds of physical attraction. Naturally somebody made the remark that the cadet surely did fall for the pledge.
It is rumored, with some authority, that people around the Campus who are not already planning their campaign for next year's peace mobilization. Ideas are being submitted to a select group of leaders, who will plan next year's convention, which is exactly what the perpetrators of that movement enjoy. While being something grounded in nature, it will still be done as an official work of duty, out of a chance to prosecute.
Mid-West Madness: Spring and its balmy weather brought out a crowd to the weekly shinding at the Union building. Ted Sloon was wearing a wing hat, but Kuneyc, Kennedy, a Chi O, was surrounded by KuKu's and was not released until she had rendered a little dance routine from a reclining position. That was toped off by the pep organization singing the Alma Mater in a bashful manner as they got out anyway getting into their marbles or jacks. College life is sure swell.
Dr. Moore Attends Banquet
Dr. Raymond C. Moore attended a planning board meeting in Topeka yesterday to discuss the water supplies of Kansas. Dr. Moore's topic was "Ground Water Supplies of the Verdigris River Basin in Kansas."

New Deal Forces Defeat Mortgage Bill By 255-142 Vote
Conferences will probably be limited to afternoon hours through several weeks. Students must regularly morning class schedules, Dufinite information regarding the program may be secured later in the month from the University Extension Office.
After initial defeat in its attempt to head off consideration of the bill, the Democratic leadership on Friday voted among Democrats wavering between Fraser-Lenke supporters and anti-Semitism advocates.
Washington, May 13.—(UP)—The New deal rallied its forces in the House of Representatives today and defeated the $3,000,000 Frazier-Lemke farm mortgage refinancing bill and disposed of inflation threats for the last time.
The votes were announced as being 255 to 142 against the measure.
The most important single factor is the bills defied was a letter from Press Secretary Sarah Sanders to the Federation of Labor condemning it as inflationary and asking "friends of labor" to get their hands on them.
Green said the A.F.L. executive council was opposed "largely because of inflation." The bill provided for issuance of three billion dollars in currency to $14 billion to give farmers 47 years to pay back loans, with interest at only 15% per cent

Permit Needed To Play Summer Ball
Charleston, West Vet., May 13—(U)
Heavy complimentary votes for Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Sen. William E.
Borah were cast in both the Democratic
and Republican nominations. Roosevelt got almost three times as many votes as the senator. They were the only major presidential candidates in the race. Democrat gave Mr. Roosevelt more than 60 percent of pro-incidents. The same number of preincidents gave Borah 131,018 votes.
"It's a lot easier to ask permission first than it is to explain a situation afterward," explained Dr. Allen.
Roosevelt and Borah Receive Complimentary Vote
"Permission is not difficult to get, but it is the necessary prerequisite. It gives the faculty representative an opportunity to caution the athlete against acts that might impair his amateur ability and it also makes it possible for the faculty to ensure that it spends from knowledge whenever an athlete's eligibility is questioned.

Supreme Court Confronted by Mass Of Traffic Cases
These cases are practically all for parking in the wrong zone or for parking without a permit. They are brought by George Snyder,稚学 policeman, who will appear in court, but not as the officer.

Fine Arts Recital To Be Given Today

Italian Diplomat Foresees No Return To Geneva Parley
Italian public opinion definitely favors such a move. The keynote of vigorous press attacks was that "Italy has had enough."
Rome, May 13—(UP)-Rome went tenure tonight on indications mounted that Premier Benoît Muholli will send a delegation to the League of Nations tomorrow in a speech to the Chamber of Deputies, which he ordered to convene in extraordinary meetings.
Baron Pompeo Aloisi and his co-delegates, ordered to return to Rome from Geneva after the League seated the Ethiopian delegate, arrived and reported immediately to II Duce at the Palazzo Venezia.
Aloisi declined to comment on the precipitate departure from Geneva. "We were told to return to Rome and that's all we know," he said.
Asked if he thought Italy ever would return to Genoa, Aloisi was silent. Another delegate said, "I doubt it. The situation is undoubtedly very serious." Foreign diplomats characterized Muscat that it will mean the United States' resignation from the League. They were unanimous, however, in the belief that the Fascist government would stand pat in refusing to participate in League activities until sanctions are lifted and so Genoa's identity is recognized as a sovereign state.
