Riesen Is Chosen Council President for Coming Year
Australian Ballot System Unanimously Adopted for Freshman Elections
Five vacancies in the Men's Student Council, created by resignation and failures to return to school, were filled last night by members of the council.
Kurt Riesen, Pachaeamc candidate was elected president; Frank Theis, vice-president, Reed Voran, the two-year representative from the college, James Christy, representative from the business school, and Chiles Coleman, of one-year representative from the College.
Petitions had been filed by politic parties and by independent candidates and the men were chosen by members of the council.
The petition presented to the council last year by Fred Gemmill representing 51 men, whereby the freshman class officers would be elected by the Australian ballot system was unamused adopted and will become an amendment to the constitution after being read in three successive meetings of the council and passed on.
The president of the freshmen and sophomore classes in the future will sit with the council as cx-officio members for one year terms. The freshman president will continue in office until the freshman election the following fall when a new president of the class is chosen.
The council voted to hold the annual nightshirt parade on Friday night before the Kansas-Kansas State football game, to be followed by a bonfire and rally in South park.
A resolution was adopted whereby Council members would carry paddles on Friday's preceding football games and then enforce the Freshman cap rules.
Lane States Varsity Rule
Men Must Present Activity Books at All Varieties
"All men students wishing to take advantage of the 50 cent varsities must present their activity books when buying their ticket to the dance," said Lloyd Lane, e' 34, dance manager, this morning. "Students without activity books will be charged a dollar for admission. This applies to both stags."
Unlike the requirements of the Wednesday night varisty, women do not have to present their books at the regular varisties.
The third dance of the season will be at Saturday night, Louie Kohn and
Johnny Foster.
Lane explained that this was being done because the activity book had made possible the low priced variety. "It is only fair to those who have purchased books that they are given this advantage over those who have not an activity ticket," he continued.
MUST USE ACTIVITY BOOKS
TO HEAR AMELIA EARHART
Activity books will admit students to the lecture by Amelia Earlhard, Tuesday, at 8:20 p.m. in the Auditorium. The ticket is not to be detached from the book as it will be taken out at the door. There will be no reserved seats for students, and only a few hundred for faculty members. Session tickets for the lecture course are on sale at the business office and at the office of Henry Werner, men's student adviser.
Professor U. G. Mitchell, of the mathematics department, in an address to the engineering freshman lecture class yesterday said that there is no such thing as a mathematical mind, contrary to popular belief. He said that a person who says he hasn't a mathematical mind means, in effect, that he can't think in sequence.
Mitchell Addresses Engineers
Catholic Men To Organize Club
A new social club is being organized by the Catholic men of the University at St John's Catholic church. All Catholic men students who are interested are invited to attend a meeting next Tuesday at 7 p.m. at the church. Bill Stidell is president of the club.
Notre Dame Pictures to be Shown The Varisty theater will run news pictures of the Kansas-Notre Dame football game tonight, Friday, and Saturday.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1933
THREE METHODS OF USE FOR THE ACTIVITY BOOK
There are three ways to use your activity ticket.
1 In the case of the lectures, the book with the ticket attached must be presented at the door for admission.
2 With the concerts, the activity ticket should be exchanged for a general admission ticket, the student choosing whether he wants the seat on the main floor or in the balcony. These tickets must be obtained at least three days before the attraction.
3 For athletics, the ticket is exchanged for a reserved seat before each game. However, it is necessary to present the activity book with the ticket for admission.
The methods for admission to other attractions is as yet unannounced.
Four Women Get Work in Employment Canvass
Choate Is Confident That Jobs Will Be Found for Students
Four women have already found jobs, since the beginning of the Keep the Student in School campaign for student employment which was begun yesterday by the Self-Supporting Student association. According to Mrs. D. R. Bryant, who is in charge of employment for women, there were "several jobs crying for women, rather than women crying for jobs."
"Although a little early for definite results of the campaign the indications are that the townpeople of Lawrence are coming to the rescue of the hundred men and women students who need odd jobs," said L. Wray Choate, president of the Self-Supporting Student association.
"The organization acknowledges the help which has been extended to working students in the past, and is grateful for it. In view of this past help, we feel that there are still many coming, and that these students will no longer fear having to drop from school.
"An attempt will be made before Sunday to find the actual number of students hired in downtown business houses," Choate continued. "For I think that even though some business men cannot help these particular students now because they already have a number of working students in their employment, some recognition of their help should be given."
Tulsa U. Points for Kansas
Hurricanes Suffer Only Slight Injuries From Oklahoma Game
Tulsa, Okla, Oct. 12 — (Special) Fresh from the brilliant 20 to 6 victory over the Sooners of the University of Oklahoma and pointing toward the game with the Kansas Jayhawks here Oct. 21, the University of Tulsa Golden Hurricane frisked through light work here today in preparation for the joust to Topeka, Kansas, where the Washburn Ichabeds are met Friday night.
Only two slight injuries and numerous bruises resulted from the fierce struggle that gave Tulsa a running start in its greatest football schedule in history. Roy "Skeeter" Berry, spectacular star of the Sooner game, suffered a sprained ankle and may not enter the Washburn game.
Tulsa's pointing for Kansas now does not mean that the Hurricane coach is regarding Washburn lightly, but that he is fearing Kansas now more than any other team on the schedule since the Jayhawks outplayed the great Notre Dame array and earned a 0-0 tie last Saturday.
Coach Elmer C. (Gloomy Gus) Henderson was elated over the win last Saturday which sent Hurricane stock soaring into the national football world. He was particularly pleased with the beautiful signal calling of Frank Greene, triple-threat quarterback, in Oklahoma-half drives that crushed Oklahoma.
Many Atticin 'Gingham Frolie
Approximately 300 women attended the Gingham Frolie given by W. S. G. W. C. A in the Memorial Union yesterday after attending. Following a grand marche, the women danced, changing partners after each dance. Music was furnished by Louie Kuhn's band.

Grid-Graph Will Reproduce Tulsa-Jayhawk Contest
Hurricanes Hold Victory Over Strong Sooner Team; No Radio Broadcast
The grid-graph will definitely reproduce the Tulsa University-Kansas game Oct. 21 in the University Auditorium, according to Fred Elsworth and Henry Werner who will direct the program. Since there will be absolutely no radio broadcast of this game, its visual and auditory grid-graph report will be the only available account of the game as it is enacted.
This game should be of particular interest to Kansas boosters since Tulsa's Golden Hurricanes downed the University of Oklahoma 20 to 6 last week and so promise to offer the biggest threat from the neighbor state. Mr. Werner points out that the dead silence of the radio as to what Beach and Peterson or Hafford and Naimish are doing on that day is a graphic pictureization of the grid-graph as the only medium for knowing what is happening to the Jayhawkers.
Engineers to Chicago
The grid-graph is an electrical board which works in conjunction with the telegraph. As a play is received over the wire, the light is flashed by the name of the player who made the play, and a light is also flashed by the word indicating the play made.
Howard Olliphant, e'34, Charles Smith, e'34, and Henry Magruder, e'33, are spending this week in Chicago attending the national convention of Tau Beta Pi, honorary engineering fraternity. Olliphant is the president of the Kansas chapter and the official delegate to the convention. Smith and Magruder are planning to see the fair in conjunction with the convention.
Will Hold Cabinet Supper
Then, as the play is being enacted on the small gridiron in the center of the board, the loud speaker at which Professor Elbel announces, begins to explain the play in minute detail and to give the sidelights and color which make the game thrilling. The grid-graph charts before its audience the location of the ball, the line-up, the different plays and the score.
The Y.W.C.A. cabinet will have a supper meeting at Henley house at 6 o'clock tonight, at which time it will have as a guest, Miss Stella Scurlock, regional W.Y.C.A. secretary. Miss Scurlock will aid the group in making plans for the monthly Newsletter.
It has been decided to put the gridgraph in the auditorium in order that neither bad weather nor a glaring sun may interfere with the audience's enjoyment of the game. It is also thought that the loud speaker can be better heard in the auditorium. Admittance charge will be 10c for students present, 25c for teachers and 20c for all others. Any profit derived will be applied this year to some worthy cause, and not put away in a fund, according to Fred Ellsworth.
Steel Key to Handle Mixer
Faculty Will Furnish Entertainment at Annual Engineering Event
The program is under the management of the Steel Key organization this year while in the past the Engineering Council and faculty members have arraigned faculty members whose expertise is applied to all engineering students and faculty members and their wives.
The annual fall mixer of the School of Engineering and Architecture will be held tonight, beginning at 7:30 in the auditorium of Marvin hall. The mixer is an affair that is intended to further the acquaintance of each engineering student and faculty member with other people in the school, and the program has been arranged with this purpose in mind.
The music appreciation period, which will be conducted to Professor C. S. Skilton from 2:30 to 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, will feature a suite of Old English Dances, by William Young, a composer of the early seventeenth century. The Suite will be played by Genevieve Varghessi, cello; Irene Bone, violin; Everett Fetter, violin; and Professor Skilton piano.
A faculty string orchestra of seven pieces will present two numbers. Professor A. M. Ockerbland will give a demonstration of Indian club swinging. The Bushong sisters will present a marionette show, and one-aact skirt will be ensembled by members of Sted Key. Refreshments are to be furnished by the faculty.
Suite to be Featured
A study of French, Belgian, and English newspapers made by Professor F. J. Moreau, of the School of Law, who was in Europe last summer, reveals the attitude of Europe toward American international policies. When President Roosevelt issued his famous declaration refusing to stabilize the American dollar, the newspapers had a perfect occasion to express themselves.
Moreau's European Study Brings Out Many Attitudes Toward U. S. Policies
Most of the French papers quote articles from foreign papers which were unfavorable to President Roosevelt For example, Le Temps, published in Paris, quoted the following, written by Visscount Snowden, from the Sunday Chronicle: "President Roosevelt has become the laughing stock of the world Never has a government head addressed to the representatives of another nation such a message as President Roosevelt sent to the Conference this message will be placed in the official example of vanity. President Roosevelt is in no way qualified to pose as an infallible leader in international affairs."
Le Temps also made a great deal of an article written in an English newspaper by Sir Arthur Samuel, former secretary of the Treasury of England, who stated that America was the only nation which didn't understand what was involved at the World Economic and Monetary conference. He was quoted as saying, "I would say to
"Freshman debate prospects look very promising this year," said Professor E. C. Buehler, University debate coach. There are several students trying out for positions on the freshman team who were quite prominent in Kansas high school debate. Topping the list of experienced speakers is John Milton Philips, who has been a Kansas historical context sponsored by the Kansas City Star, thereby winning a trip to Europe. He has also engaged in international debate during his career.
The try-outs will be held at 8 o'clock tonight in the Green hall theater. Each contestant will give a five minute constructive speech and a three minute rebuttal on the question. Resolved: "That the United States should adopt the essential features of the British system of radio control and operation."
Freshmen Will Try Out for Debate Team Tonight
From the contestants six will be selected for the team. Judges will be Charles Hackler, Gordon Sloan and Professor E. C. Buehler.
John M. Phillips Tops List of Those Competing for Positions
Peterson Praised by G. Rice
Writer Gives Sophomore Back Exceptional Acknowledgment
John Peterson, promising sophomore back on the Jayhawk eleven, was honored by Grantland Rice in his dedicated sport column yesterday.
Rice referred to Peterson as the Kansas back, who annoyed Notre Dame so steadily at South Bend. He also stated that few seasons will show any better sophomores than the ones he had named, which included Peterson
Gerald A. Butel was elected president of the Colloquium club today. Other officers were, Carl Bear, vice-president, and Giles Priest, secretary-treasurer.
Butel Elected President
This is an exceptional acknowledgment, as it is well known that Rice seldom praises midwestern athletes so highly.

America, go home, occupy yourselves with your own affairs, and put your own house in order. We can do better without you. We know perfectly well you do not care to help Europe or us"
In the issue of July 4, Le Temps stated that it was hardly fair for the Americans, who have deliberately devalued their money to bring about an artificial raising of prices, to advise the more experienced European nations, and that Europe should not credit one of the main causes of the depression in the United States.
The Gazette, published in Brussels, on July 25 had an editorial which said in part, "President Roosevelt, an inspired messiah, speaks a great deal about the international solidarity, etc., especially when the poor little dollar is involved. . ."
"The recovery act of President Roosevelt, is designed to better conditions in America, regardless of the effect it will have upon the world. It is even planned to put the tariff duties so high in America as to prohibit absolutely the purchase of European goods by Americans. And yet it doesn't prevent the American delegates in London from blatantly saying that they are working for the general good of humanity."
The president, however, had defenders in Europe. Former Premier Hermiott of France warned against the excited mentality that "would urge the French government to take brisk reprisals, to form a European front, and to plunge into nationalism." Former Premier Hermiott felt that France and the United States were becoming essential partners in the exposition with the Angle-Saxons is difficult, often deceiving, but it is indispenable."
Washburn Is Searching for That Scoring Punch
Coach Bearg Is Confident Quarterbacks Will Develop Later
Topkie, Kan., Oct. 12—Wanted: / little scoring punch!
That's the advertisement that the coaches of the Washburn football squad are putting out as they go into the fifth week of practice and head for the interstate mix-up with the "Golden Hurricane" from Tulsa University next Friday night.
The Ichabod "power-house" seems to have floundered on the rocks of disorganization. In the middle of the field, the wearers of the Blue are a great team. In the middle of the field plays clicks nicely. Inside the opponents 20-yard line the same plays are as ineffective as a professor's joke. That, anyway, has been the case in Washburn's last two games, one of which the Ichabods lost.
The trouble, Coach Ernest E. Bear seems to think, centers around the quarterback position. The three quarters whom Bengal has used so far, Chet Marmon, Jesse Dalton, and Bobby L. have been showing up fairly well, but they are as green as the turf in Moore bowl when it comes to smart football, therefore the team has no reason to lose. That reason becomes tense. And that's what the Ichabods are up against as they face the toughest game of their schedule.
This week Bearg plans to work his charges principally on blocking, passing, and pass defense. The men are in fairly good condition with the exception of Benny Owen, tackle, and Gene Vegel, half, who have injured legs.
BOTANY CLUB IS INVITED
TO INITIATION AND PICNIC
The Botany club will hold a picnic tomorrow afternoon at the Hole in the Rock. Invitations have been sent out to all past members of the club still enrolled in the University and to all students enrolled in the course this year. Initiation for new members and the election of a club secretary-treasurer will be held at this time.
Attend Chicago Convention
Arnold Kretzmann and Chiles Coleman left this morning to attend the Sigma Delta Chi national convention in Chicago. Kretzmann is local president and Coleman took the place of Paul Woodmansee, local secretary.
Freshmen Must Wear Ribbons
Although there is no regular football game scheduled for this Saturday, the freshmen will be required to wear their ribbons in view of the practice game between the freshmen and the varsity.

Varsity Reserves Clash With Frosh in Tough Workout
Team Used Against Notre Dame Given a Light Drill of Signal Practice
Freshmen Called In
After some limbering up exercises the squad was ordered into the dressing room where a chalk talk was held. After this a group picture was taken of the entire squad, and also a picture of one of the participants in the Notre-Dame game.
Coach Ad Lindsay again called a long scrimmage period to order yesterday for the varsity reserves against the freshmen pupils of Frosty Cox, while the Jayhawk crew that played the Notre Dame game was allowed to take it rather easy. They were running signals and working on pass plays.
Upon returning to the practice field the varsity candidates were greeted with "five laps". Each man then started on his journey of five times around the field.
The two teams held each other rather evenly in the midfield area, but attempted freshman punt on their own 20 yard line was blocked by the varsity and Lander recovered behind his own goal line for a safety.
Then the freshmen were called into the fray and a varsity reserve team composed of Hammers and Hayes, ends; Dees and D. Neshim, tuckles, Ferris and Logan, guards; Phelps, center; Bloomfield, quarterback Brinker-Insaket, halfbacks and Peterson fullback were lined up against them.
Doeer W. Prescott II
After this fall the Coffeyville boy, Bill Doeer was inserted into the reshman backfield and it was not long till he unreleased a run of 60 yards through the entire reserve team to core the only points for the first year ten. Coach Cox then removed Decker rom the serimimage.
Decker Is Freshman Star
Members of the R.O.T.C. held a moot trial last night in the basement of Green hall. Robert L. Williams pleaded the defense.
The freshmen with a lead of 6-2 ought hard to keep the varsity from coring, but all was in vain. On the text to the last play of the game, Kell stepped back to whip a pass to Hayes who stepped over the goal line for the winning points. The try for point was lot tried.
There will be an admittance charge of 25 cents. The activity ticket will not admit students to this game. The money so derived will go to buy oranges for the football squad which was not provided for in their regular budget. Tickets are on sale at the Round Corner Drug Store.
The freshmen and varsity teams will meet each other Saturday afternoon at 2 p. m. in a regular game, which will be played on the stadium field.
Following the trial, Major W. C. Koeenig, professor of military science, explained several phases of the procedure to the spectators and members of the court. He said that a multidisciplinary science actual experience in the procedure of court in action.
