University Art Group Exhibit Receives Praise in East
A comment has been received from the director of art at Ohio Wesleyan University, Delaware, Ohio, where the Theta chapter of Delta Phi Delta has recently exhibited work of the Alpha chapter of this University.
Miss Humphrey was very outspoken as to the exactness of the work of the small pieces which were laid flat in the cases and could be carefully scutinized. She thought the work exceptionally fine in its craftsmanship as well as originality, and special mention was made of the draperies for children's rooms. The quality of difference in the work from that which they are at this time doing caused the exhibition to be specially interesting.
"The work was of great interest to us, and was much talked of in and out of the college," said Miss Humphrey.
Athletic Office Seeks District Court Sanction
Dr. Allen Institutes Suit to Establish Legality of Transfer
A suit to establish the legality of action whereby the University Endowment association would turn a deed over to the Kansas Physical Education department into adjacent to the stadium was filed in the district court yesterday afternoon.
The athletic association purchased the land for $12,000 in 1924. At that time, however, the association was not incorporated and could not hold title to real property; the land was deeded at the time of purchase to the Endowment association.
June 16, 1925, the athletic association was incorporated as the Physical Education corporation, and now has a legal right to hold title to lands.
Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics, explained that the suit was merely a friendly one, and is made necessary to clear the title to the property. The transfer is desired, he said, because the athletic association wishes to borrow a sum of money to finance the athletic department this summer, and the loan is to be secured by the property in question.

Stillwater, Okla., May 12- (Special)

Oklahoma Student Senate Plans Dance to Buy Lettermen Blankets
Expenses, which took the last week dance receipts, included the federal tax, the piano rent, rent for the loud speaker, newspaper advertising, poster painting, orchestra, and wax for floor.
The All-College dance, which was expected to bring the senate out of the red, failed miserably to it. There were 248 male dancers present, 168 of them with dates, but only $124 was taken in, because of the 55-cent admission and complimentary tickets. There will be no comps Thursday; even the senators are to pay regular admission.
If the New Dance dance proves as successful as is anticipated, graduating lettermen will receive their O blankets; the tenors will receive their O condition condition of the senate. Ross said.

Decision Result of Effort to Re-Sod Ground for Football
This is due to an effort by the athletic department to obtain new sod on the football field, as it is in poor condition at the present time. The difficulty in getting the field covered with grass correctly lies in the fact that there are many cliffs of children themselves and also because of the expense of the improvement.
Recently, however, under the direction of a grasstologist from Kansas State College, an attempt has been made to resed the field properly for football next fall. New grass seed has been placed in the soil and made of ammonium-sulphate and super-phosphate has been added.
