--special Committee Chosen to Attempt Stadium Student Section Compromise
on the SHIN
By REX WOODS, sp
"Jugs" Wood gave us a big job when he left town but some of the gossips of the hill were able to supply us with interesting news bits. So, her goes.
The other evening as several couples were sitting in the living room of the Pi Phi house the famed McFarland came dashing through and on into the room where the victoria is kept. She played the piece, "Just a Gigolo," five times in succession, in the meantime she fell froth, (we mean forth across the floor.
Naturally everybody wondered who was the matter. But they didn't have to wait long. Just as the record was finished for the fifth time, Lyman Field. (you know who he is and even if you don't your education hasn't been seriously neglected) came in and went into the same room where McFarland had been entertaining herself. Words were spoken, but no one knew what had just happened and was until the end of the conversation when Lyman burst out with a "Woll, I'm sorry."
The next day it was learned that McFarland didn't seem to care whether Lyman was sorry about it, whatever it was, or not. Thus, has come to an end (?) an affair that has filled this column time and again with interesting paragraphs. We wonder what Lyman will do when next spring he sees her in bed, read poetry to one of the fairest sex. Who will the sufferer be?
Who is the Chi Omega pledge who said last summer in Kansas City that she was coming up here for one year and would manage to find someone to marry?
LAWRENCE. KANSAS. FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 20, 1035
You may have wondered why the freshmen now entering school have been able to get their pictures taken without their freshmen hats. If you remember, the M. S. C. passed a bill that made it illegal when the pictures were taken. Since that time, the bill has been lost or some extra-smart freshman swiped it, and now nobody seems to know what to do. The freshmen have profited by the loss and the K men wounded who's who when paid-dime time comes.
Perhaps you haven't heard about the affair between Mary Frances Schultz, now a Theta alum*, and Joe Holloway, brilliant originator and first editor of this volume. That affair to the parting of marriage during the summer but still seem to be friends.
Jim Clawson, Phi Delt, has been seen going over to the Kappa house early these mornings. He seems to be behaving like a normal Bunga, Kappa pledge. You see Clarkson and Burns both used to live in this city, and at that time knew each other quite well. Then Burns moved away to be all right now.
Jacque Dettmeier, Sigma Chi, and Flossia Kehl, Kappa, seemed to be having a little trouble among themselves at the dinner party. "We think we need to think of much of it until the mixer Wednesday night when she kept talking about being such a free woman. Just letting the other boys know that they have a much better chance now."
A bright young freshman starting out to classes for the first time yesterday morning came forth with the question "Where is the College?"
We have been informed that there are now exactly 78 Phil Delta wandering around the hill. They are probably eating in four shifts, but we don't dazzard a guess as to where they are all sleeping.
Students who want parties authorized should list them in the office of the advisor of women three days before the party.
Landlades who have listed their rooms with Mrs. Bryant should notify her when the rooms have been rented.

Adviser of Women,

Varsity Manager Race Is Reopened By Men's Counci
During its first meeting of the year last night, the Men's Student Council waived its right to choose a panel of varsity dance manager applicants to be submitted to the Union operating board selection of this year's dance manager.
The action was taken to facilitate and hasten the selection of a dance manager. An original panel of five men stunned by the performance matched early this summer to the union operating committee consisting of Dean Henry Wuerter and Bill Cochrane, b35.
Applications to be Submitted
Applications for the position will be received by the College and Lyman Field, who will turn all of them over to the union committee without consideration by the Council. All applications must be submitted to Field before Wednesday night, Sept. 25.
According to a provision made into the College's dress code for dance manager, no recommendations for any candidate will be accepted or considered by the board. The letter of application must contain only the qualifications of the applicant and his experience and must be signed by himself alone. Special consideration will be given to candidates who master of ceremonies. Cochran said.
Dissatisfied With Sending
In view of the general student dissatisfaction with the seating arrangement in Memorial Stadium at football games, Mr. Warnock and Dr. F.C. Kerneth Born, e; c36; Francis Kappelman, ed; c36; and Dr. William Johnson, e; c36 to attempt a "compromise" with Dr. F.C. Allen,
The much-discussed and controversy "Freshman Cap Bill" which went through at the Council's first meeting last spring proved to be of little avail. The bill, put in the trust of Herb Sizez, was unanimous approval. Chancellor's office, was misplaced, and the freshmen were not required to have their pictures taken with their caps. Sizezme, who voted against the bill, was concedented and given a vote of confidence by the Council. A copy of the bill, that Chancellor to be put into effect next year.
To Purchase Council Keys
A bill, providing that the Council shall pay five dollars each toward the purchase of Council keys, was amended to read that the maximum amount to be paid by the Council on each key will be two dollars, and that the purchase of them by the Council members is not commulatory.
Since the constitution of the Men's Student Council was inadvertently lost last year, it was provided in last night's meeting that it shall be re-written and printed and made accessible to all Borders, 173, is preparing the document.
Elect Parking Committee Members
Charles Rankin, T38, Bob Williams
Chuck McCormack, R42, Tom McCormack
elected as men student representatives to the University parking committee. They will serve with three women statute委员, two women W.S.G.A. and several faculty members.
The committee on student forums, the PS.LGB. brain-child is at work preparations for a series of open forums on all subjects which will be conducted throughout the academic year. The first one was announced in March, it was announced at the meeting.
Swim Team Will Be Strong
The 1935 Jayhawker swimming team is gradually shaping up. Puxey, Irwin, Kester, Howard, Lashsbite, Humphreys, and others are in school, according to Coach Herbert Alpain, and he believes that a check-up may reveal that other promising candidates.
Conch Allphin Has Several Lettermen And Promising Sophomores
Coach Aliphin reported that several of the new freshmen are promising material for next year.
The official call for candidates for the swimming team will be made about Oct. 14 in the mountains, a platform is being built from which to practice starts. Two flutter boards have been constructed and will be lighter than the board used last year.
Open hours for the men's swimming pool will be announced in the Kansas Sunday. The water in the pool will be shallow until possibly Thanksgiving.
Medics Doff Hats
To Freshmen for Courage
And Promptness
Far too seldom are roses thrown at the feet of K. U. students, so it is almost with reverence that this bit of news is written.
Ir. R. I. Canutose, director of the health and student service, comments in glowing terms and with a liberal touch that the school conduct of freshmen and new students in regard to their alertness in keeping their physical examination appointments. During the first two days not a appointment has remained unfulfilled.
According to various medics it charge of the examination, however the new group of students appear to be a rather faint-hearted group. It was given out on reliable authority that the examination was taking place during the examinations, and that the examination station took on the appearance of a hospital.
The 1368 physical examinations give new students this year has broken all previous records. Last year the number slightly exceeded 1,100.
Another persistent rumor is to the effect that an over-zealous Joe College of 16 years committed the terrible sin of trying out his first pipeful of tobacco with the result that he has been confined to the hospital for two days.
So it is with hats off and bared heads that the "hardened" students of this University salute the new, both for their sincere faithfulness to duty and their courageous and adventuresome spirit.
All Enrollment Changes Must Be Made Saturday
Last Psychological Tests to Be Given Again
Late registrations continue to trickle in, as do a few enrollments. School officials have announced that one more student is missing and students to take the psychological test.

Prof. Allen Crafton Hopes to Produce at Least One Play Written by Kenyon
by Kansan
This year Mr. Crafton hopes to present four productions, one of which will possibly be an original play by some resident of the state. In the past the selection of plays for presentation has covered a wide range, from the current successes on Broadway to the classics.
Extensive plans are now being made for the eighth successive season of the Kansas Players, according to Prof. Allen Crafton, head of the department of speech and dramatic arts. This organization, which consists of both students and faculty, made great strides in auring interest of the students body in drama.
Will Present Original Play
Last year, Mr. Crafton, realizing the importance and the dramatic possibilities of early Kansai history, wrote and directed a group of films onJOSEPH showing their struggles to preserve Kansas as a “free state.” By presenting a Kansai-written play each year, Mr. Crafton hopes to play up slowly the dramatic literat
Mr. Crafton points out that there have been a number of well-known novels and a wide field of non-fiction material as well as poetry written by Kansans, but there have been no out-standing plays.
Many Outstanding Members
Besides Mr. and Mrs. Crafton, who head the Kansas Players organization there is Prof. Robert Calderwood whose character acting has made him outstanding. Mary Myers Elliott, who drew the production of "Double Door last season is again a hudging off event," said that summer has been assistant technician at the Phidaleh Rice Playhouse at East Chap. Mass, will act as technician for the Kansas Players this season. A great show from last year and more is expected to be discovered in forthcoming tryouts. Professor Crafton established one of the earliest little theatre in America at Galesburg, Ill., in 1928. Since his arrival at the University of Kansas it appears here have shown stead advancement.

Clinging tightly to his Kansas an perhaps be slightly admonished for trying to read it in class, "Uncle Jimmy Green's favorite" apple-polishing student can be seen patiently posing i front of Green ball.
Imaginary conversations have been carried on between these two for many years, but it is the first time that "Ucle Jimmy" has changed his customary genial attitude to one bordering on disgust.

News Brevities
Washington, Sept. 19.-(UP) Secretary of State Cordell Hull today summoned four fellow cabinet members to the first meeting, Tuesday of the board appointed by Congress to see the impending Italian-European war.
Secretary of Treasury Henry Morgenthal, jr., is enroute to Europe, and he has arrived in Philadelphia. Douglas McArthur is to represent his chief at the meeting, and two other members of the board, Sec. Daniel F. Cloverstein, C. Higerland, are expected to attend.
To these five men has been intrusted the registering and licensing of American munitions under neutrality laws, including embargos onmunitions unlawfully sold to foreign powers, that they must define the term "arms, munitions, and implements of war."
This nation's sympathy for peace indicated it would give moral support to the government in its decision to declare. This might mean warning to shippers that attempt to contact Italian ships and ports must be done at their own risk, independent of economic factors.
Detroit, Sept. 19—(UP)—Bill Camingham, nigh champion waiter, arrived from his home town of Kansas City today, made a bee-line for Navir field, got himself up against the fence and beaten to sit.
He has been the first waiver-in-liner for the last 7 years. He was out to grab the first league ticket—barring a stupendous upset—to the first series, October 2. As he set up an army cot outside of the entrance, and arranged his toilet articles and everything he would need for the long vigil.
"Why last year," he said, "I arrive in Detroit twelve days before the opening game, only to find that Art Felpe had beaten heisenbeer me by four hours.
"But," Bill went on, "Art couldn't take it. After four days he got restless and went to see a football game. I claimed a foul, and took his place."
"He paused, and arranged his pictures—prize pictures, of himself close to baseball notables such as Rowe and Babe Ruth—spat through his teeth. 'The ball is the pinnacle.' Then he fell into the pennant—especially if they play the Cuba."

Some of the students attended the University for only one year, others were here two or three sessions, but not one of the first class was ever gradual. Fifteen four persons received the first diplomas ever issued by the University of Kansas.
Two members of this first group to enroll are now living in Lawrence. They are Lillian Lash Leis, and Oliver P. Barber, Mrs. Susan Savage Aldorf is now a resident of Austin, Tex, where he lives. He was born in Belle S. Crumbler is in Fresno, Calif.
