Faith Placed in Youth of Kansas Is Justified
In 1929 the first group of Summer-
field Scholars entered the University of
Kansas. These boys had been selected
from the state's most advanced
graduates of the state and were the
recipients of scholarships guaranteeing
them four years of university work
free from financial worry on the condit-
ition their work remained satisfactory.
Summerfield Scholarships are provided through a trust fund established by Mr. Soln Summerfield, who was graduated from the University in 1895. Mr. Summerfield is now president of the company, and features recurring company in New York City.
In answer to the question why he had provided such a scholarship, Mr. Summerfeld has said, "My motives for providing such a scholarship in the comprehensive expectation that many students, while living comfortably and happily, will yet strive manfully and successfully to become more empathetic and more useful members of society."
First Groups Graduated
The first two groups of scholars have already graduated. We recognize what these alumni are now doing shows quite clearly that Mr. Summerfield's expectation was a failure one Frederick E. Wirth, one of the first group of scholars, received both his A.B. and his A.M. degree after three regular and two summer sessions. He and became the first Summerfield Scholar alumnus. At the present, Wirth is instructor in the classes at St Thomas College in St. Paul, Minn.
Six scholarships received their degrees in 1933. Harold Denton, honor man in the University for that year, served as the office of the director of the Tennessee Valley Authority in Knoxville, Tenn., Denton, an economics major, was president of the Men's Student Council, and a member of the Owl Society, of Sachem, and of the Joint Committee on Student Alumnae.

No Qualms Are Felt by Administration As Pink Dove Flies
A pale red Dove fluttered over the campus yesterday bearing the titings of students liberated and free to slay Ms. Grundy and her timid fol-
By noon, oddly enough, all was well. By noon, administration building went so yet completely unarranged that most people responded up to late in the afternoon indicated a relatively safe atmosphere on campus. Students were free to go through class routine.
The general reception given the resurrected Dove was that it made rather interesting reading, technically imperfect, but indicating the possibility of a later issue. In other words, we were a trifle disappointed. Where we had expected to hear names and see dates called with the click of billboard balls, we met only the round about imminent things perhaps too awful to reveal.
The students who expectantly bough the Cove by coves, want to hea and see the mutes. So far as they are personally concerned, the darker the
The very Winchells barred from the Dove by his own editorial policy are the things we wanted to find in the issue. Maybe better back another issue.
English gardens were described last night by Dr. A. J. Mix, professor of botany at a meeting of the Botany club at his home at 1134 Louisiana street. The professor was much impressed, where he was much interested in the gardens.
