SUNDAY, MAY 26, 1935 A RIGHT TO GUARD The intellectual freedom of our University and of every similarly progressive institution of higher education was vigorously supported by the Lakes, Secretary of the Interior, when he spoke in Chicago recently. "Freedom to search out the basic and undeniable facts, whether they be social, physical, economic, or political, is a right inherent in any educational system worthy of the name," he insisted before the teacher welfare organizations there. An Illinois senate committee had concluded a day of inquiry into "red" teachings at the University of Chicago, at the request of Charles W. Walgreen, drug store millionaire. Secretary Ickes must have felt called on to defend the "FINALS" Negro Fraternities and Sororities Fill Real Need in Student Life Secretary Ikes has definitely established himself as a friend of the basic right in education—to search for the truth and to teach it He claimed that the function of the teacher is to analyze keenly, ever seeking the truth. Academic freedom must be granted and guarded if that function is to be preserved. Read the Kansas-want-ads. Re Margaret Ryan. c'38 principle of academic freedom in his own alma mater. With the realization that the Negro students indulge in a social life similar to that of the white students, the question as to what started Negro organizations in the first place arises. During the years when Negro students were attending Indiana University. Most of them were working their way through school. The number of places where they might assemble was limited. Realizing that they had no part in the social life of the University and drawn together by common interests, they would have fraternity would do much to fill the missing link in their college existence Two of these men, Elder W. Diggs and Byron K. Armstrong, had previously attended Howard University, and had "The witches of today have already been segregated from the community at large. They are the teachers. And here again we are running true to form. Since the beginning of the world, the man or woman who was a step ahead of us was separated from us by the sorcerer or the witch," said the Secretary drawing a parallel from history. By Margaret Ryan, c. 26 "Gather in close folks, it's all free. Here you see the only jumping goat in captivity. He jumps from crag to crab and every time he jumps he bends his arm. Now the question is does the jump make him grunt, or does the grunt make him jump." With this, the market called attention to the leading carnival show at the Delt Sigma Theta annual Jabberwack. This is one of the many features of Negro Dance in New York annually by Delta Sigma Theta, one of the two Negro sororites on the Hilt The Jabberwack includes not only the carnival feature but a fashion show, an dancing. The variety of entertaining for its popularity and large attendance. come into contact with men belonging to the only national Greek-letter fraternity in existence among Negroes. Their experience at Howard caused them to be the chief motivating spirit of a fraternity at Indiana University. OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN On January 5, 1911, ten men met for the purpose of organizing such a fraternity. The chapter members were: Elder W. Diggs, Byron K. Armstrong, John M. Lee, Henry Asher, Marcus Blaise Rommel, Edith D. A. Armstrong, Ercam, D. A. Armstrong, and Edward G. Irvine. The fraternity became known at Kappa Alpha Nu, and it was in the first incorporated Negro fraternity in the United States, on the granting of a charter by the Secretary of the State of Indiana, on April 15, 1914. In 1914, he joined the fraternity to Kappa Alpha Pi. The fraternity was established at K. U. in 1914. Alpha Phi Alpha, the other Negro fraternity on the Hill, had as its founders six men who were members of the Social Study Club at Cornell. They were: Vertner W. Tardy, E. K. Jones, Robert W. Ogle, James H. Morton, N. A. Murray, and Gordon L. Campbell. The fraternity was established on this campus in 1917. There are eight-five chapters in the United States today. Alpha Kappa Alpha is the oldest of Negro sororities organized on this campus. It was founded at Howard University by Ehiel Hedgeman Lyle, in 1968. it was organized for the purpose of fostering better educational and cultural Notice due at Chancellor's office by 2 p.m. preceding regular publication day and 11:38 a.m. on Saturday for Sunday issues.

Although six girls founded it at Howard University in 1913, it wasn't established at the University uni- The question has often been raised, "Now that we have Negro college fraternities and sororities, do they justify their existence?" No racial prejudice should be so great as to deny that they do justify their existence. Their oratory is of the highest purposes as the white organizations boast of, and their contributions to the life and existence of the Negro college student is even more important. Slosson Leaves Etymology of Famed Rock Chalk Yell The modern Jayhawker is the heir to no mean or sickly college yell, as can be attested by the fact that the Rock Chalk has resounded from other hills in nearly every portion of the country. It is also a part of chemistry recently discovered in rummaging around in some old papers, a paper written by E. E Slosson, '90, which gives the anatomy and etymology of our valued cheer. Mr. Slosson, who died several years ago, is now the director and the director of science service. Born to Mr. Lawrence a bouncing, bracing Straw Hat sensation. We've just unpacked straw hats the will melt into your mirror like your own eyebrows . . . straws that will turn your head about all hats . . . from plain to plug. he showed a real aptitude for this latter work in his undergraduate paper, by showing the remote origin of the words, "Roek Chalk." The name comes from the cretaceous formation of rock that lies at the base of the volcano and has provided a priceless source of geological information. The Jay Hawk refers to the unembarrassed mixing of various people to form the Kansas population when a large number of young boys come to Critchik Airbase anyone who could promote "were" properly was admitted. He devotes much attention to the phonetics of the words, and shows why it is that the students "just like you tell it." It is easy to form sounds, and the forms are forceful and sharpness which are the essentials of a good yell. This is our 1935 Straw Hat Announcement to every male head in Lawrence with 1936 ideas. He says, "Our yell is at once a creed, in a boast and a challenge. Let us reutilize the word yell, to create a first occasion offer, and may fortune send it soon, let it resound from Oread All the difference between a wax doll that says "Mamma" and the real thing that walks the floor with Papa . . . and if we seem a little off our base today . . . just remember that we've never seen hats like these . . . nor has anyone else.
