Fidelity Promised by 1000 Freshmen at Annual Service
Many Jayhawker Neophyte Around Symbolic Fires Pledge Vows to Traditions
Pledging fidelity with a modified form, of the Athenian oath administered by Chancellor Lindley, more than 1000 students from the University formally inducted into the University at the annual ceremony, held last night on old North College Hill and at the stairway.
Gathered around the symbolic heart fire in the basket on North College Hill, the incoming class learned the history of the University and its traditions by observing a game of the founding of Kaua on the spo where the fire basket now stands.
Following songs by the glee clubs and several yells, the parade to the stadium was stared, and four abreast, the class of 1937 met drawn down and took their platform in front of a specially constructed platform in the north end of the stadium (here Lindley, the speakers and representatives of the various classes awaited them).
Strong Interprets Seal
There Dr. Strong strong, ex-channeler of the University, read the scripture passage upon which the University seal is based, and interpreted the seal. Musil was the first professor of the University, and professor emeritus of Latin, spoke of the founding and early history of the University, and told us how that faded the school in its first days.
While Chancellor Lindley explained the significance of the torch race and fire as symbolic of the very life of the University, Glenn Cunningham, Jay Zebra and his team above the stadium with a brand of fire lighted from the hearth on North College, he carried to the platform and handed to the representative of the university their representatives of the various classes on the stage. The member of the freshman class ignited the fire box on the stage, and the entire class rose to receive the oath of fidelity from the Chancellor, who then donned their caps for the first time.
Bramwell Represents Older Students
After Phillips Bramwell, c36, representing the older students of the University, had re-affirmed for them their loyalty to Kansas, the ceremony was closed with the Alma Mater and the Rock Chalk vell.
Representatives of the various classes on the stage were:
Seniors: Meredith Filkin and Howard Hoover.
Graduate: Margaret Lawson and Herbert. Weatherby
Hover.
Juniors: Margaret McNown and John Rizley.
Sophomores: Winifred Koenig and
Brihle Roswell
Freshmen: Margaret Wheeler and
John Miller Phillips.
Others on the stage included Chancellor Lindley, Dr. Strong, Miss Oliver and Fred Elsworth, alumni secretary, Mary Carolyn Spangler, M.L. R. L.

Voice Classes Planned
Although practically all schedules in the School of Fine Arts are filled to mium, an attempt is being made by teachers of voice to accommodate classes of four who desire to share the expense of an hour in such a class. This requires that the teacher and proved satisfactory, a number of students enrolling in the classes.
Anyone interested in similar classes this year has been requested to leave his name with Miss Estelle Engle secretary of the School of Fine Arts.
Architect Exhibits Win
Selections from last year's architectural drawings by the Architecture department won first prize at the Stat Fair this year. The University's department has won several of those prizes and has accumulated for a scholarship fund.
Graduate Is Recommended to Chancellor for Doctor of Divinity Title
Honorary Degree Is Asked
The Reverend Christ* Wilson, A.B.14 was recently recommended to Chancellor LinderLL for an honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity, by Ralph Cooper Hutcheson, president of Washington Jefferson College at Washington, Penn.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 28. 1933
The Rev. Mr Wilson is a missionary in the American Presbyterian Mission at Tabrizi, Persia, and is at present in France, where he works, enough which we takes eight years.
President Hutchinson said of him: "He has been on the board of directors of the American College of Tehran, one of the finest colleges in the Orient. He has done good literary work and has been a most successful evangelist. Dur-
living this recent period of excessive nationalism (in India), he has been in close touch with the leaders of that nation and has contributed an effective influence over them."
He continued by saying, "While we have no relation to Mr. Wilson here, we would be glad to confer this degree were not limited by certain degrees conferred last year upon missionaries; for graduates of our own college. I feel much better than the student this day that I take the liberty of presenting the matter to you personally."
However, since the University does not grant honorary degrees Chancellor Lindley was forced to decline the suggestion.

Petitions to Fill Five Open Places on Council Asked
Applications of Candidates Will Be Due Oct. 10; President to Be Elected
Hartley to Receive Petitions
The resignation of Kurt Rusten, vice-president, and Dick Nelson, two-year representative elected in 1922, brought the list of vacancies to five, as Gordon Schmucker, president, and John Rugh, business representative, did not return to the office and James Christy, business school representative, was declared invisible.
Machinery for filling the vacancy in the presidency of the Men's Student Council was set in motion following the council's meeting on Monday night, when Robert Harley, secretary, announced that petitioned candidates of the vice conservatives would be accepted not later than Wednesday.
Petitions for the filling of these offices must be submitted to Hertford not later than October 10 and the council will take action on them at that time. With the signature of party petitions one hundred signatures on each student body are required for anyone seeking the presidency and vice-presidency and 25 signatures from members of the respective schools represent themselves if required are required for the other positions.
"The constitution of the Men's Student Council provides that such petitions reach the secretary of the council not three or four days after the first publication excluded them," said Hartley, "and under no consideration will they be accepted later."
Parade Date Selected
The council voted to have the annual night shirt parade followed by a rally at South Park on Friday, Oct. 27, the night game in the Kansas-Kansas State football game.
Heretofo, the parade has followed the first home game, but due to the early date of the first game it was impossible to *star* the parade at that time.
To Change Rushing Rules
Oklahoma U. President Promises Administrative Action If Necessary
Norman, Okla. Sept. 28—(Special) The long sought change in fraternity rush rules became certain Monday when President Bizzell promised administrative action if the interfraternity council fails to push revision.
"Unless you better system is devided it will be necessary for university authorities to investigate." Bizzell warned. "It is necessary to get a revived plan in operation before next time."
"I am sure, however," he added,
"that fraternity leaders are convinced that
we should not out and out and I am hopeful that definite steps will be taken without unnecessary deeds."
The plan advanced last spring calls for a system similar to that now used in the Internet. Main features of the pre-programmed system include backtracking all dates before pledging. Backers of the plan hope to eliminate a large part of irregularities through this change.
