A couple of little girls who know the song. "When It's Dark on Observatory Hill," decided to go into the astronomy building the other might just to see the stars, but she needed a key to the place since she was a major in that subject. Her companion helped her open the doors leading to the sky; the compass was set and the telescope made ready for its Heavenly invasion. Both looked and looked for something that wasn't there, but nothing was evident. Once in a while they would go to the door, see that the sky was clear and return to their task. Finally they gave up and started to look for the cover for the end of the scope. There it hung,安全系数 low. They got it off in the first place. Hurriedly they uncovered it in the hopes that they might yet get a glimpse of the stars, but too late, all of them had gone.
The gal who spent the night in her car back of Corbin hall because she didn't get in in time for closing hours, must have had everything fixed up before hand. Her best friend posed the question: "Were they seen talking to each other at closing hours. The next morning she appeared in time for breakfast and nothing was said about the incident. The boy in the case, had no statement to make other than he had become so obliterated that he had forgotten the hour.
NUMBER 151
Members of the Hill fraternities were making the rounds of the different sorority houses, giving a sermon after their party. When they arrived at the Chi Omega house, they were surprised when none of the girls applauded them. Then, by accident, they saw two of the girls with them and most unusual rhumbles. The radio was turned up loudly and the girls were having the most fun. Since that sorority did not appreciate their singing, they decided to stand there and post.

The score at the finish stood 6-3, in favor of the seniors.
Harvard Men Advertise at Expense Of Supreme Court
(Copyright 1916 by United Press)
Cambridge, Mass., May 7 — (UP) —
The red flag of Communism hoisted over the United States supreme court is being used by Harvard students to advertise the forthcoming issue of the Harvard Lampoon, coalesce monthly, the United States news agency.
The Lampson editor disclosed the public stunt after salting themselves through judicious inquiry that deeply harmed the audience, and desharly with them for the wrank.
The next issue of the Lampoon duo off the press either Monday or Thursday will堡骡 on the Saturday Evening Post. Appearance of the red fad
over the supreme court building fulfilled a prophecy made in an editorial article published by a morning we are able to wake and find the red flag of Moscow waving over the supreme court building." Suspicion had turned upon President Vladimir Putin, a copy of the Lampoon was found at the base of the flagstaff. Editors profited to be "horrified" when it was suggested that he should have raised the flag raising but they told all later.
Five Kansas Justices Guests at Law Banquet

Burdick, dean of the school, was toast
master.
The justices present were Dawson farvey, Smith, Thiele and Wedell, the last named by graduates of the university School of Law
Dudley Doolittle, member of the board of regents, recalled that a year ago he was privileged to announce the appointment of Dr. Burdick as dean, and said the year had demonstrated no mistake had been made.
Justice Harvey declared the state was justice no obligation to maintain courts that were lawful, a racedict, and expressed the belief that there was a tension—too low a tenency, he said—toward a greater purported detecting cases upon honest conition.
Justice Dawson, next to the senior on the Kansas bench, recalled early days, and Justice Smith, Thule and Chancellor Lindley signed the School of Law for its participation in the general affairs of the University.

Students of the University and faculty members who took the time to step into Dyche museum yesterday experienced a real thrill. Although not in a physical sense, that thrill was almost catalyticism. During the whole year, stories and editorsials have been telling about the dioramas being made by "Poco" Frazier for the museum. One issue of the Graduate Magazine carried a black and white reproduction of a picture of the first diorama completed.
But the black and white reproduction was lifeless. To fully appreciate the color and magnificent detail of the six dioramas now completed, go into Dyche museum today or tomorrow morning and feel the same thrill that other students have experienced.
It sometimes takes a cataclysmic occurrence to awaken people to an awareness of things.
It would sound a bit trite and hackneyed to trot out all the descriptive words and phrases in an attempt to describe those dioramas.
When you stand and look on them, you know, without being told, that you are looking upon the work of an artist. You will agree, as you stand there in the semi-darkness of a semi-dismantled Dyche museum, that you are viewing something unique.
Some day the story of the making of those dioramas will be told. Suffice to say that it takes genius to mold into objects of beauty and educational worth such work as are those dioramas in Dyche museum. And you will be proud when you can some day say, "I saw those things when they were first displayed to the public."

May Break Records
Hindered by injuries, the Jayhawkers are slated to come out on the short end of the score but are expected to make a bitter fight of it. Above all the Kansen leaders are expected to take more first places than in any other meet this year.
Of the marks which are being preserved for posterity in connection with this annual classic of the Sunflower, the greatest danger of being put in the shade.
Rail Noble of Kansas should clear the bar in the pole vault at higher than the record of 13 feet. Two evenly matched mile relay teams will put on a battle that should result in a new record. The old record is 3:22.2.
Just how well Kansas will show up in this meet depends largely on how the underpinning of a number of the players in his team, Charlie Pidk's kicks holds up he should have little trouble winning the broad jump. Ai Al Wlahnau is still hand-capped by an ankle injury which will hold him down in the bighump jaws, leave his knee sore from the amount of the squad are suffering from one kind of a leg injury or another.
