University Begins Sixty-Eighth Year as Classes Start
Usual Opening Day Spirit
Pervades Campus As
Instructors Meet
Students
With the very tiring but also very essential formalities of registration and enrollment completed, with freshman physical examinations and mechanical meetings out of the way, and with the law students in their usual whistling positions on the steps or Green hall classes began this morning at 10:30 a.m. the year of the University's existence.
There was much hurrying an scrambling to find the proper classrooms. The usual number of students they were called and they had discovered themselves to be in the wrong rooms, and the usual number of instructors made the usual number of clever remarks about their—or somebody else—sirving
In some classrooms there was laughter as the instructor endeavored to put his charges in a good humor before starting them out; in others heavy sixties took over. But a pipe course might have turned out otherwise. Students with brand-new notes took copious notes; others seribled hastily on the back of envelope, then flicked through—took no notes at all, but sat back with an air of wisdom that told their fellow classmates that they had this course in the palms of their respective
Laughter and Silence
Only a few instructors kept their students in hour, and even they were constantly shored up. They thronged in the halls, through composed of those who had been left out early by the teachers.
Those cars Parked in *Hamilton*
students fortunate enough to
possess a car parked anywhere
on the campus that their fancy
chose, while George, the campus cop,
looked on smiling and waited for
the day when the little red and blue tags would be necessary for admission to the campus drive would be void of parkers.
There seemed to be an unsettled air about the HILL. Nearly every looked up from their window for a day or two until some better arrangement could be found, although on a few faces could be found that air of unease. The realization of the long nine months ahead.
Fraternity and sorority pledge battles were very much in evidence. They fairly gleamed from coat laps and kneel at the entrance of the temple, modest and noticed at the same time.
But the University whale blew with monotone regularity at 20 minutes after the hour, and as the day wore on, the routine became a little more familiar, particularly to those who had gone through it so many times in previous years. Doors opened and shutted, people flashed signs or from Marvin to Blake, or Chem to New Snow. People and cars went past.
The University's sixty-eighth yea was under way.

'Guiless' Fresh Works Pretty Scheme to Dodge Meeting
They learn young. One freshman presented his ticket at the first freshman concession. As the Jay Jane out came a out corner he asked causally:
"Can anyone who is not a freshman come to this meeting?"
LAWRENCE, KANSAS. THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 21. 1833
"Why, yes," replied the Jay Jane,
"Just a minute 'til I tell mother',
said the freeman as he disappeared
for good through the doorway.
"I don't think my adviser knew what he was doing when he made up my behavior," he said. "He put 'he down' Nash for my seminar, and I am sure that wasn't the name."
The schedule said "Staff."
Department of Zoology Is Exhibiting Collection of Western Kansas Reptiles
Beetles to beetles, reptiles to runners,
fossils to philosophers, the University
has them.
Hobart Smith, Jr., and H. I. Hilbard have recently returned from a trip in western Kansas with specimens of *reptilia* collected in the collection of the University museums and extended the boundaries of several species of *Reptilia* and *Amphibia*. The museum has also collected bats in the caves of western Kansas. Hilbard was able to bring back many new species and create new boundaries for county survey records.
Smith, who at present is working on a thesis dealing with amphibia, brought back a frog which was entirely new to Kansas.
Approximately 450 specimens were collected on the trip. Many of the specimens were collected at the diallyst in formaldehyde upon arrival at the University but for exhibition purposes, the department of zoology has them stored alive in the basement of Snow Hall.
Snake Appears Poliovons
In the collection is a spreading viper which is probably poisonous. This is probably because of the African and European viper which really are poisonous. The spreading ef-fects of these venoms on humans and body being extended. The head then takes on a triangular appearance which gives rise to the idees of the viper.

Several rattlesnakes, prairie and pigmy, were brought back. The pippy rattlesnake is considered the most vicious of the 17 or 18 species of rattles, being a certain degree less poisonous, however, in comparison. Its venomous properties are greater than the copperhead, and should be avoided accordingly, Smith said.
one snake in the collection, worthy of special mention, is the "faded snake." Under certain circumstances where light is present the reptiles is virtually transparent. In live in the sand and unlike those which leaves no track behind when travelling.

Boa Constructor on Display
Many tortoises and a pair of alligators brought back by Max Elias, gr. from Florida are on display as well as a collection of 10 of the fruit company of Lawrence.

Results are doubtful, how-long the cool climatic conditions he pointed out.

As the tradition goes, Chancellor Longwang who had already retired, came to the United States with her team finding out the cause of the raise, and cheering joined with the leaders in a grand re-enactment.
Since that time, once each year, Jay-kawai crowded houses that paraded down the street, and some neighbors neglected like gargoyons, to wind up in front of a big bonfire across from the backyard.
The parade usually begins at the Memorial Union and passes down a street on Pennsylvania Avenue on Massachusetts street to South Park. The paraders, marching in four, guarded by Ku Kus and K-Men, paddle the pajama-clad figures when they pass.
On the long trek south on Massachusetts街 to the Park, the paraders form into one continuous serpentine path and follow it along the avenue, sweeping relentlessly through everything that is in their path. At the park they are greeted by huge bonfires and are served with pink lemonade and hot dogs following a pee meeting.
Freshmen will be expected to wear caps during the opening game this year. My husband said, but the audience would be impressed by the official offloading of caps at the time of freshman initiation has not taken a toll on them, and they will be held next Wednesday evening.
