Thursday SPECIALS Committee Reports Gradual Decrease Each Year in Assemblies University Body Adopts Convocation Schedule Chicken and Dumplings 18c Chocolate Sundae Pie 08c In addition to many other good foods The University Senate, at its meeting yesterday afternoon, adopted a schedule for all-University conventions. Conferences are held in September of each year, am honors convention in the spring, and not more than three other conventions each seat the The convocations committee reported that in 1920 the University senate had authorized weekly convocations on Wednesday, that until 1925 convocations averaged three or four a month. In 1926, they limited convocations to two a month. In support of its recommendation the Senate advisory committee transmitted to the Senate a report from the convocations committee showing a gradual decrease in the number of such convocations. Starting in 1926, the convocations committee adopted a policy of using half its available funds for all *Al-Ul-霖* programs, and for afternoon lectures, some of which attracted as many as 330 persons. Budget limitations, the committee said, caused serious convocations the past two years, and the lecture course, in part, had CAFETERIA met the need for noted outside speakers. The committee commented on the interest aimed by the two series of lectures by Paul Dender, German exhiliterant lecturer here last year in length with efforts of the Carnegie Foundation. Chancellor Lindley, who presided at the Senate meeting, asked members of the Senate to bring to his attention, or that of the men's student adviser, instances of students who through modesty were not making known their need for financial assistance at this time. / The Chancellor also reported briefly on the progress of legislative matters affecting the University.

Where Students Get Together By Francis Lynde AN unusual, exciting, interest-holding story in which the author has taken a modern invention as the "hub" of his narrative and done a brilliant bit of story telling. From the opening, when Owen Landis, designer of the "Black Box of Silence," dreamer and enthusiast, confides his secret and his fears as to what ignoble usage his invention may be put, to his chum, Walter Markham, until the cleverly worked out and altogether satisfactory ending, even the most exacting reader will be fed to a pleasurable excess on action, climaxes and entertaining dialogue. With it all there is an appealing love story. NOW - TOMORROW! You Can Draw 100% on the Bank of Fun—'Cimon, Join the Merry Crowds!
