... A Hot Varsity . . . Should we wear tails . . . It’s the Duce. The Sands are being tied down ... Ryan prefers men to man…
The opening variety proved to be a rather warm affair. Most of the old "varsity goers" expected the mob, but strange as it seems, not many left the crowd in the early morning great rush, which still keeps us wondering who the most Alluring She might be. George Guerezy, the talty boy, was representing Phi Gamma Delta, and was very busy greeting old friends; consequently she made dancing with this lightfoot.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1935
From all indications we have an easterner with us this year; at least we saw a tux at the varsity last night. It's a sure bet that the fellow doesn't like to wear the thing, so we'll guess that it's correct in his home town.
Red Bleckham must have... putting the boys through their pace last night, because Helen Lockhart of the Gamma Hifi lodge took the short and hard way down the stairs with rythm in her mouth. Hope there is no hard feeling.

Hear a good story about the probable war to come between Italy and Ethiopia. A campus wits says he'll bet his dollars on it, but the never heard of a Duice taking a King (Remember that Duces are wild sometimes, and that might change the game). At any rate, we hope that the United Nations will allow for it would be a shame to take the cream of the country away, right when half of the ladies are trying to keep Kansas dry for Kansas youth, and the rest are out to make Landon the next presi-

the aftermath of some of the recent weddings is the topic of conversation now. The Evelyn-Sands combination honeymooned in Chicago, and a little while later she vacation with his parents some time afterward. The little lady worked in the city. A few years and this marriage business will be a worth while institu-
Speaking of marriages reminds us the Diamond Lil Sands and Tony Gwynne made history for badge deals this week. Both kiddies are reported doing nicely Miss Sands will be remembered as the girl who brought fame to the Thetaas while Mr. Gwynne was the originator of the famous Songs and Stories. Antonio and Cleopatra caiers were passed to the Grand Hote boys (what does this mean Tony?).
Campus Sisters of Y. W. C. A. Group Will Be Permanent This Year
Campus Sisters Plan Picnic
Hate to mention the same girl twice in one week, but she's a Pi Phi, and you can find one anywhere, but Ryan got a surprise at the varsity last night when he dorms, Dalrymple, disappeared at intermission. She missed his speech at local boys until he returned. Bet some one was on the receiving end of some strong words.
The Campus Sister picnic Saturday will be the second get-together to be held this year. Reservations for the picnic should be made with Mrs. Walker 1315, at the Chelsea Building, at phone 12643. The women will meet at Henley House at 4:30.
Campus sisters heretofore have been maintained for about two weeks, but this year Y. W. B. C. A. officials have been appointed to the Co-Ed Club where the two societies will be united. Campus sisters will be kept the entire entry through the activities of the Co-Ed Club, Dorothy Lewis, 36, is director of the Co-Ed Club

stration building.
Library Hours Announced
New Improvements Are Made; Las Year's Schedule to be Continued
Beginning tomorrow, Sept. 19, library hours will be 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. each day except Sunday. Sunday hours are from 2 to 5 a.m., beginning Sept. 29.
Charles M. Baker, director of Watson library, has announced that a few new improvements were made in the library during the summer.
One improvement which is not seen by the public but which is greatly appreciated by the employees is that of the new gates on the elevators. Another is the new section of a catalogue case which has been installed.
Mr. Baker's outer office has been repainted and much shifting has been done in the stacks to squeeze in more books. As to the personnel of the library, Mr. Baker will have an announcement to make later.
Wildcats Are Optimistic At Chances in Big Six
Sixteen Lettermen Return to Brighten Aggie Prospects
Kansas State sets out this fall to defend its Big Six football championship with hopes a good. A many of the men who played in the Wildcats have a slight edge over the Wildcats, but none of them dey that Kansas State has a great chance to make it two champions-
Eighty-two men, a new high, checked out suits the first day of practice, and among them were 16 lettermen. Four of these men were regulars in the line last year and two of last year's backyard regulars return. In addition, the practice group returned in every game injuries the Wildcats plenty of experienced reserves.
The line should be a bulwark of strength. Churchill is playing his third ear at end, and it should be a great year or him. He won all-conference mention as年 and will be a strong bidder for all-conference berth this season.
For the other end there are two out-standing candidates, Burris and Hays Both men played last year and demon-州 they are capable men for the first string.
The tackles are taken care of equally well. Flentrope is an outstanding regular last year. When he wasn't in the game, a sophomore by the name of Fanning was, and Fanning played so well he was frequently mistaken for the brilliant Captain Maddox, playing on the other side of the line. Couch Fry be- fanning Panning will develop into one of the tackles Kansas State has ever had.
The guard posts probably will be manned by Cardarelli and Holland, both lettermen. Partner of a 1894 regular, will serve as captain for the son because of a siege of typhoid fever, as will letterman Beeler. These positions should strengthen as the season pro-
At center will be found Captain Griffing, a likely bet for all-conference honors. He passes well, tackles forcefully, does everything expected of a center.
Kirk is a terrific blocker and is a hardy lady to have in the backfield. Who has to play her way through the outstanding candidates seem to be Warren, a veteran, and Conwell, a sophomore. Regardless of who ill the players are, they seem assured of a brilliant backfield.
Ayers and Elder, both all-conference back last year, are the aes of the back-field. Ayers excels in broken-field running and in keeping to the team mates at or near the line, smashing the line and crossing up the opposition by sprinting around the ends.
At 1:30 a.m, a fire alarm was sounded, and, amid shrieks of 'fire', the new girls were rushed down the fire escape. After being thoroughly frightened they were taken to the house, where a party was held for them.

Lament of the late-comers at enrollment: "My kingdom for an easy chair." After the first two hours of standing is feeling a lose is found from the free puppies.
Along the Fronts
One cannot help but feel sorry for the two freshmen who, after standing in front for many weary minutes, discovered that their shoes had to go back and start from scratch.
From the resulting conversation could be gathered the idea that the present enrollment procedure needed some drastic changes.
The height of futility: Trying to crash the gate ahead of schedule.
And then to find out that some course you want to enroll in is filled already Almost too much to bear. But what ear a body do about such things?
Doesn't it just burn you up to have your schedule all arranged before hand and then have some nasty old adviser tear it apart and tell you that you can't take certain things? There ought to be a law against it.
Let's all hope that the professor will not be so worm out by class time Thursday that we take it out on the students
Talking Dean Lawson into letting you take more hours than the transcript calls for. There may be a more difficult task but as yet we haven't heard of any.
"He doesn't lift it," if even Floyd Glubba could talk fast enough to gain a favorable decision.
Some confusion was caused among the freshmen when, to their conservation, it was discovered that due to a typographical error, Geology and Geography were placed in the same Science. Some wondrous courses were conceived to satisfy the requirements.
Early Reports Indicate More Students Register
Those Who Failed to Report Will Be Assessed Late Fee
Indications today were that registration figures would be materially higher than last year, but the Chancelor's office had said it would make a good approach the record figures of 1930.
Registration for the first semester of that year was 4.301. The total was 3.961 at the end of the official registration week last fall.
Every student who failed to register by 4:50 yesterday afternoon will be asessed a $2.50 late fee.
Low point in recent years was reached with 3.628 in 1933, a considerably smaller percent of decrease from the maximum than in most of the universities of the country.
Walter G. Thiele, 170, president of the Kansas Alumni association and an associate justice of the Kansas Supreme Court, died on Friday day escorted by Chancellor Lindley.
WALTER THIELE VISITS CAMPUS;
JUSTICE MAKES ALUMNI TOUF
The trip was taken for the purpose of renewing University ties and creating interest in the University and its problems.
At a recent meeting of the K. U. athletic board, it was decided that the chairs should be opened to any and all radio stations, at a price decided upon but not announced. In this manner, any station that will pay the price set by the board may broaden its audience.

FOOTBALL BROADCASTS TO BE OPEN COMMERCIAL VENTURE
Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics
dr. that no contracts had been signed
and that as many as can be accommodated
to broadcast the K-U home games.
Eight individual broadcasting stations and the National Broadcasting company have sent inquiries to the athletic department, regard to the broadcasting of games.
Manhattan-(U. P.)-Kansas State College's record enrollment of 3,200 students and resulting crowded classrooms forced a state AAA wheat school to be held in the press box of the Memorial Stadium.
Registration continued at a dizzy pace the final day. With many students registering the first two days, the final burst of registration marks the registration mark above that of last year.
There is one man who doesn't have to say a word to get through the registration line. I know you can't guess what I'll tell you—its the telephone lineman.
Some of the "unusual gags" are becoming a bit trite and shopworn; just ask Sam, the gateman.
There doesn't seem to be much news in the line on the last day. No, the "lines" aren't what they used to be.
The great clan of gum-echewing students will pay for their folly, according to Oren Bingham the picture snapper. "They always manage to get their pictures as as the picture is taken and yet they keep the cameras at the dire results."
"Would you mind getting your picture taken?" one of the workers asked a middle-aged woman politely.
That's it, take your spite on the people who have nothing to do with making the rules—that's gratitude.
NUMBER 6
One girl in line nudged the one just ahead of her, causing the line to stop momentarily.
"Yes, I would," she replied, "but suppose I'll have to."
"Doesn't the man behind me look old?" she asked in audible whisper.
"Are you making the cards any longer today?" one of the local scribes asked the gents stamping the numbers on the cards.
"Yeah, and it's caused from waiting on people like you," the "man behind replied.
"Yeah, we're registering the "Ss" today, and they take longer cards" the weary stamp returned sarcastically. Yeah, we sorry we said anything.
Another story from Rogue's Gallery (this from a woman):
"I'm a teacher now, as well as a student; do I have to have my picture taken?"
What's the Answer?
A real enigma; one student lives at Mission Hills (Johnson County) Kansas City, Mo. What's his address? A badhful young fweekeenly ex-
The medic wanted to know whether he was in the graduate or just the medical school.
At the end of registration, 650 feet of film had passed through the little camera in the gallery. With an average of 600 frames per second, the film that so, oh figure it out for yourself.
" they spelled my name wrong on my high school transcript. Do I have to spell it the same way here in college? Another perplexing problem: Is a student receiving disability insurance self supporting?
A bashful young fresh weekly explained his tale of woe to a woman helper:
So, with the end of registration, this column is put on the shelf until next year. Till then adio amigo!
A difficult situation exists in the student employment office, Fred Elsworth, director of the Men's Student Employment bureau, said yesterday. More than ever before students are hanging on by a thread, living in the hope that they will find a job which will enable them to pay expenses.
Many "Hanging on by Thread" Says Employment Head
Students Need More Jobs
This list includes: barbers, stewards one dairy worker, one chair director, and one child's chauffeur. Ellsworth is the only other laundry and cleaning representatives.
Several specialized jobs are still open, Mr. Ellsworth has announced, and he intends to fill them with students who are well adapted and experienced.
A short while ago there were 700 such students. This number has been lessened some, and it is hoped that since most of the faculty have returned from college, they are found by means of which many students may earn an at least living quarters.
The larger part of these students, however, are not fitted for such jobs, and it is these students that Mr. Elsworth is most concerned about him. He has issued a plea to many homeowners and small business people to open their doors to students and offer them sufficient work to secure a room.
Byrd and Johnson Will Head Lecture Course This Year
Former NRA Director To
Open University's Most
Attractive Course
On Oct. 31
This year's University community lecture course is by far the most attractive of any of recent years. Featured by the Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd and General Hugh S. Johnson the president present two speakers each semester.
The series opens on October 31 with a lecture by a lecture by Hugh S. Johnson. General Johnson's topic is not known, but he will speak on some phase of the present economic situation. Johnson is the former head of the RIA and University of York City and is well qualified to speak on our present economical crisis.
The second lecture of the first semester will be given by Wifred Wilbur Husband and is amply illustrated by moving pictures and color slides. Husband has gained access to the innermost sections of his museum, an interesting picture of their home life.
Husband, a brother of Mrs. Agnes Husband Gleitman, former dean of women, has been formerly associated with inviting Fischer of Yale, and for some time he was the associate professor manager she has been for. The professor he has been lecturing in the East.
The first lecture of the second semester will be given by Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd. This lecture is the first lecture in the American America at the South Pole. Moving pictures are to be used to illustrate the lecture. Byrd lectured once before, in 1931, here at the University, and drew the largest crowd in the history of the
The final lecture will be given on March 16 by Sigmund Spaeth. His topic will be a phase of our modern music. Spaeth is known in the radio and music television. For some time he has been featured in movie shorts, and on the radio network with his interesting stories about our popular songs. One of his features is the tracing of parts of popular tunes back to other songs.
all four lectures will be available to students holding activity books. These lectures all bring something of interest to the student at a very small price.

Washington, Sept. 16—(U. P.) The constitution of the United States had its 158th birthday today. It was one of the livestream occasions ever offered to citizens. Constitution speeches by all creeds of politics indicated the Constitution will be involved in the 1936 campaign. Republicans and opposition to Roosevelt speeches emphasized "dealing the Constitution of our fathers."
Washington, Sept. 16. (U. P.) The American Legion today took the middle course. The president's first duty is to defend freedom against violence.

Geneva, Sept. 16—(U.

League members cease to worry whether Italy can be prevented from working against Ethiopia. However, it is becoming increasingly obvious that the League must adopt some detention against Italy, economic or military.

Team to Be Entertained
Relays Club to Honor Jayhawkers Wit a Dinner Tonight
The football squad will be guests of the Kansas Relays club tonight at a game in Omaha, Nebraska, a member of the club will have a football player as his guest. Dr. John Outland of Kansas City, former K.U. player and "father of the Kansas Relays," will be joining the team.
Six or seven members of the club will give short accounts of K.U. games of the past, the idea being to give the 1935 squad members an insight into the traditional fight of the Jayhawkers through the years.
"We are entertaining the squad at the beginning of the season rather than a pre-game showdown," said one of the club announced, "in order to impress upon the men that the club members are behind them 100 per cent and ready to boost for K.U. football at all."
Tigers Plot Comeback In Conference Football
Faurot Promises Plenty of Competition for Opponents
Columbia, Mo., Sept. 17—(UP) —A throwback to the type of gridiron made famously by Gwin Henry appears due this fall as leaned-Don Faurot goes about his resurrection task a the University of Missouri.
Although lack of weight will hamper considerably Faure's fondness for "power play," he plans to use a variation of the Minnesota shift to a wide single-wing back formation much in need when Faureot was a player here.
There will be 1B lettermen on hand for the opening of the drills at Missouri, but chief reliance for the success of the drills will be the sophomore future will be on the sophomores.
"We have an ideal schedule for a team in Missouri's position," Faurot said, recalling that the Tigers have claimed only two victories in three years under Frank Cardeo, and indicating Faurot ranks the "Big Six" leaders in order as Nebraska, Kansas State and Iowa State.
We're not expecting to gobble up any Big Six championship this year, but we're going to give some conference right busy Saturday afternoon."
Accepting spring practices as a criterion, there are few who would doubt that Fauro is progressing with his renovating assignment. There were 75 out for teh off-assess drills, and some of the shi-fu-faced players have been supported for Dana Bible, George Veenker and other Big Sis coaches in years to come.
A group of seven veterans combine with abundant newcomers to reduce backfield worries. Capt. Claire Hoxen, Art Lochner and other seasoned troopers can be mixed in with Jack McDougall and others in western honors with Rice, and a handful of light but swift bites for a fairly well balanced secondary corps.
There are only three lettered tasks slated to report, the ranks having been hit when big Clark Miller was sent back to the camp in summer. Probably Faurel's biggest line troubles will be with the tackles. Finkle, Sconce and Ferguson are tough, vetetra guards, and Ivy and Powel, will be excellent replacements.
Size and speed are presented in the end ranks in sufficient quantities to induce little worry. Herb Grenda and Harold Bourne will have experience and, apparently, little else on Carmi Henderson and Feliz Turbough.

Chancellor Lindley Welcomes Students To the University
New World Offered to New-
comers If They Will
Form Habit of
Reading
"I would like to believe that this University is concerned with you personally," he said. "We would like to serve you as individuals."
Chancellor E. H. Lindley addressed the final all new-student convocation last night in the University Auditorium. He brought his address of welcome to a close by expressing a desire to school again with the new students.
To Enter "New World"
Memories of his own youth were recalled by the Chancellor, and he urged the incoming students to ignore the seemingly machine-like methods that those procedures were only a necessary evil, to obtain certain information.
He was introducing them to a fascinating new world. "The University is designed a new world," he said. "It is exciting." But it is a four year adventure.
"Some people give up many things through fear. They set up a defense reaction to combat this fear. Many people are antagonist to University training through fear created by the college or the college are a testing time, not of the college, but of you." The Chancellor attacked the student's excuse, "I haven't read to me."
"Get the reading habit," he emphasized, reminding them of the Oxford system, where a student may make his faculty out of his conversational assoc-
"A questioning mind," he said, "will enable you to live on a plane of equality with your superiors."
Students were warned against trusting to luck to carry them through without adequate preparation. To always be prepared, students, in case of failure is a sign of weakness, he pointed out. Freshmen were urged to go in for athletes and to be careful when carrying equipment.
You have a chance of superiority in something", he said. "It is absolutely essential to a normal, well-ordered life in something. Get the habit of success."
This convocation marked the closing of Freshman week activities.
Dr. J. H. Nelson, associate dean of the College, presided. The convocation closed with the singing of the Alma Master.
