Tone Emphasis Lends Added Meaning To 'Three Little Words,' Says Crafton
"There is a language beyond words," said Prof. Allen Crafton, head of the speech and dramatic art department, in a speech broadcasted over KFKU recently. "I refer to the age-old language of tone."
"Perhaps tone was the first language we used as a race. It is the common possible. But with eight changes of may color our words, and may change their meaning. Tone may be used when words can't may superseize the language of words and may even deny to words their accepted meaning."
"Let us take three very simple words I - need you. You' have a meaning, even spoken without tone, if that is tone we can give it as many meanings We can say it with a question; sly, coquettish; statement, emphatic on I; straight, without emotion; question emphatic on I; question, emphatic on you; fast, urgent; sarcastic, denial of fact. Each tone gives the words an entirely different meaning. They could
Ku-Ku's Initiate Seven Into Reorganized Group
New Plans for Organization Allow for Increased Membership
Initiation service for seven new members of Ku Ku, local chapter of Pi Epison Pi, national pool organization, were held Sunday night. The initiation date marked the forty-eighth birthday of the famous Rock-Chalk yell of the University of Kansas.
The actives and candidates for initiation met at Fraser hall, and from there the customary pre-initiatory services began. The Kappa's, Pi Phi's, Alpha Delta Pi's, Chi Omega's and Gamma Pi's graciously offered water to the new initiates for their musical efforts but according to one member of that group, Thai's kids used to supply even so much as a single glass of water as the neophytes sang "I Love You Truly" under the rear windows of his house.
The padding crew ended the march it the Memorial Union building, where Walt Lyman, T35, president of the organization, conducted the formal initiation. A midnight spread was then provided by the members of the fraternity. This initiation marked the start of the re-organization of the Ku Kui's.
The Kansas pep organization was completely reorganized this spring with the election of new officers and the revision of the constitution. The present initiatory services are in line with this reorganization. Another new policy that has been adopted for the first time this year is the practice of allotting three active members to each of the fraternities on the campus. In previous years two have been allotted to each fraternity. However, the fraternity this year has adopted the policy if increased membership and the increase to three is the first step in increasing that membership. It is believed that with increased numbers the organization will be better able to generate more pep of a more vigorous quality.
the seven initiates are Horace Hedges, c'unel; James Keeler, c'unel Bill McElfresh, c'unel; James Leydig c'35; Jack Lix, £35; Walt Ranney, c'unel; and Dick Sellers, c'38. 1u Prilher (ced ges hs 15

"Any speaker, by the economical an
sure use of tone language, can impor-
more than more information. He cay-
cled his audience and impart many
emotions, Sarah Bernhardt, the gree-
th French actress, was once asked to reci-
cate something from one of her plays at
a gathering. She said that she would
not recite any of the scenes with which
they were familiar, but would take a
scene from a foreign play; whereupon
she began. The audience felt the agony
of the woman she was portraying and
were greatly touched. When she had
finished they congratulated her and
wished to know the name of the play
from which she had chosen the scene
She amled, and informed them, to the
general embarrassment, that she had
been receiving the Arabic alphabet."
"We do not have one language, but many. We have the language of slang and argot, conversation, formal discourse. We have a language we employ in writing and another we employ in speaking. We have a homely language inherited from the Anglo-Saxons and a more scholarly language derived from French and Latin. And we have the language of pantomime. But the oldest, most subtle, economical and useful language is our language of tone."
"I have barely touched the subject. I believe it might be fun to listen to this language of tone as it is spoken by your friends."
Washburn Wins Net Meet
Ichabads Sweep Central Conference With Singles and Doubles
Washburn College, rival of the Jay-hawker tennis team, swept the Central Conference net meet last weekend by winning both singles and the doubles championships. The Ichabods placed their three singles players in the semi-finals and both finalists in the doubles.
Captain Tom Chittenden climaxed his fourth year of competition by winning the individual title and sharing in the doubles championship. He provided all the upsets of the meet in eliminating the two teammate favorites, Deaver and Dalton, in the two last rounds. The former was a 2-6, 11-9, 6-0, 6-2 victim in a match with Dalton, being within two points of his second championship. The singles final count favored Chittenden 3-6, 4-6, 7-5, 6-2, 6-4.
Another major upset found Chittenden pairing with Dodge, former Kansas university student, to defeat their teammates and ranking number one doubles team of Deaver and Lever, 6-4, 6-1, 6-0.
Kellogg Back From Meeting
Professor of Architecture Attended Two Conventions in Washington
J. M. Kellogg, professor of architecture, has just returned from a week's visit to Washington, D.C., where he attended the meeting of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture.
This association is trying to bridge the gap between graduation from college and entrance into business life by establishing a period of apprenticeship. The graduate will go into an architect's office for two or three years before being allowed to practice. Mr. Kellogg, who has just finished his term as a member of the executive committee, also attended the convention of the American Institute of Architects. While attending these sessions, he met Goldsmith, formerly head of the architecture department here in the University. Mr. Goldsmith is now head of the architecture department of the University of Texas.

Hargiss Considers Track Candidates For National Meet
Seven Jayhawkers Included as Possible Entrants at Los Angeles June 22, 23
Now that the track season is over, and Kansas emerges conference champion both indoors and outdoors, Coach H. W. Hargiss is looking over his manatee matches for the National Intercollegiate match at Los Angeles, June 22 and 23.
Three or four of the Jayhawkers are definitely "better" than the minimum standards set by the Los Angeles officials, and several others are so close that their records will be sent to T. N Metcalf, athletic director at Chicago, and in charge of selection of midwest contestants for the west coast meet.
Heading the list is Glenn Cunningham, holder of the world's indoor mile record and the 1500 meter, and with an average of 394,000 yards better than the accented mark.
Runs Twelve Mile Races
Cunningham has run in 23 races since Jan. 1, winning 2 of them. Twelve of these races have been at the mile, five at the half mile, two for two miles, two at 1000 meters and one each at 1500 meters and three-quarters of a mile. These races aggregate 21.32 minutes, running time was 1 hour, 33 min. 17.1 sec.
Cunningham at the recent Big Six outdoor meet for the second year in succession won the mile, the half mile and the two-mile events. He holds the conference records in the mile and the half mile.
Ed Hall, Fulton, Mo, dash man and broad jump, took three first at the Big Six meet, winning the 100, the 220, and the broad jump, events which he won also at the Missouri dual meet. He won the triangular meet on the jump in the triangular meet at Lawrence and won the broad jump at the Drake Relays.
Record on First Heave
Elwyn Dees, holder of the national interscholastic record for the 12-pound shot, set a new Big Six record at Lincoln with his first trial shot in the preliminaries, making 50 feet 1½ inches. He won the shot event at the Big Six tournament, and was cited for start Butler Relays, and was sound at the Kansas Relays.
Clyde Coffman, Olympic decathlon placer, won third at the Kansas Relays decathlon. Coffman won the pole vault this year at the Big Six indoor meet and at Butler relay; tied in three relay events. Coffman won Kansas State-Nebraska triangular, and was one of four tying for first at the Big Six outdoor meet.
Harrington Gauls Distance
Paul Harrington, Kansas basketball star, developed into a javelin throw of ability. He won the dual meet with a throw of 189 feet, $5\frac{1}{2}$ inches and led the qualifiers in the 1967 outdoor meet at 194 feet 11 inches. When it was discovered that all javelin men were entitled to another throw at Lincoln, Harrington came back from the showers to put the speen 208 feet, $11\frac{1}{2}$ inches for a new meet record.
Another with a good record is Bob White, who tied for first in the pole vault with his teammate Clyde Follman in the Missouri dual and the triangular meet here, and along with Coffman and Gray of Kansas and Lyon of Iowa State tied for first in the Big Six meet.
Theno Graves, now registering from St. Joseph, Mo., has been showing great promise in the middle distances, and he is a leader in the winning. Kapsa milky relay teams.

1935 JAYHAWKER CONTRACTS
GIVEN TO SAME COMPANIES
Contracts have been made for the publication of the 1934-35 Jayhawker. From among the bids submitted last week, the Burger-Baird Engraving Company was awarded the engraving work, and the printing will be done by the Havens Printing Company.
These are the same organizations that produced last year's Jayhawker. The plans are for five magazine issues similar to this year, with new features, designs, and binder.
Jayhawkers Lead Big Six Athletes In Major Sports
Inclusion of Minor Games However, Gives Oklahoma All-Around Championship
The outstanding achievement of winning three first places, coupled with one fourth place, is more than sufficient to bring to University varsity athletic teams the 1933-34 Big Six major sports season crown. Nebraska nosed out Oklahoma for second place, with Kansas State, Missouri, and Iowa State winding up the list in that order. Taking consideration also the three junior sports, Oklahoma has the best showing, with Kansas second.
In determining the all-sports winner, points are awarded to teams corresponding to the position in which they finish in the final standings of each sport. Thus, one point is granted for a first place, two points for a second, etc. The winner, then, is the school with the lowest total score.
Big Six major sports include football, basketball, indoor track, and outdoor track. Baseball, played to a varying extent by all the conference members but Kansas, was not counted this year as a Big Six major sport because, according to Chester L. Brewer, director of athletics at Missouri and secretary of the Big Six, no school team played a representative schedule, and no baseball tournament was held as this sport's season finale.
Three First Places Won
This year, the University, with first places in basketball, and both indoor and outdoor track, and a fourth place garnered in football, finished the season with the low conference total of seven points, and more firsts than any other team. Nebraska, with a first in football, a second in the recent outdoor track meet, a third in indoor track, and a fourth in basketball, took runner-up honors with 10 points each, to total sum of Qklamene's year's varsity athletic endpoints.
The Jayhawkera went through a mediocre football season which, in conference play, netted them two victories, and three defeats. Losses were encountered in the Nebraska, Kansas State, and Oklahoma games, while victories came against Iowa State and Missouri. The resulting percentage placed the Mt. Orcad chargers behind the former three teams, who finished in that order, and ahead of the latter two teams.
Basketball An Upset
The season's first championship came to Coach "Phog" Allen's basketball team. Supposedly doomed to drop from the top position upon which Kansas teams had resisted for the three preceding years, and doped to finish not higher than third, the Jayhawker quintet, after dropping its first conference game to Nebraska at Lincoln, swept through every remainder in the playoffs against nine victories and one defeat. A check of all scheduled games, conference and non-conference credits the Jayhawkers with 16 wins out of 17 games played.
Evidently imbued with the winning spirit, University athletes staged one of the most successful track seasons in the history of the school. Only one defeat was administered to Coach "Bill" Hargiss' men during the indoor and outdoor seasons. The lone loss was encountered in an outdoor dual meet at Lincoln with the Cornhuskers, after the Kansas had already annexed the indoor title in the annual meet at Columbia.
Two Records Made
Following this display, the Hargissmen, led by Captain Glenn Cunningham, Clyde Coffman, Ed Hall, Elwyn Dees, and Bob White, swep through a triangular meet with Nebraska and Kansas State, a dual meet with the Missouri Tigers, and then swooped down on Big Six opposition and records at the outdoor meet at Lincoln, to win 10 firsts out of 16 events, establish two new marks, and register their third athletic triumph of the year.
In the three minor sports, tennis, wrestling, and swimming, the local athletes finished in third place behind Oklahoma and Iowa State. The Sooners won both tennis and wrestling, and finished third in swimming to win the minor sports division. Iowa State students finished second by virtue of winning the swimming meet, finishing second in wrestling, and fourth in tennis. Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, and Kansas Aggies wound up the list in that order. Final results give the University netmen a second, and the swimmers and wrestlers fourth. Captain Arthur Voss, University No. 1 tennis man, won
