Fraternity Heads Become Members of Hellenic Council
Move Is Made to Expedite Business and Provide Better Working Organization
MARSHALL IS ELECTED
Action of the men's Pan-Hellenic council last night will expedite the business of that organization, by giving it a more active personnel, and at the same time, by demonstrating matters of interest to both the Pan-Hellenic council, and of all organized men's houses on the campus. By unanimous decision, the houses members of the council were directed to organize the council as the representatives on the council.
The council thus constituted will more often be able to make prompt decisions than under the old plan whereby it was too often the police and other members of the several houses. At the same time, the members of the Pan-Hellenic council are their 'house's' representatives in the House President's association expending busi-
Robert Reagan member of the House Presidents association and vice president of the present Pan-Hellenic council made the following motion: "I shall be compulsory that the president of each member fraternity of the Pan-Hellenic council be the official representation. The motion was seconded and passed.
Presidents Must Serve
There was also the provision that the present representatives, unless they are presidents of their respective houses, shall be the alternates.
"The motion was passed." Charles Marshall, $35, newly elected president of the council, said today, "because we felt that if the fraternity president were the representatives on the count, they would have to answer questions. In the past, fraternity representatives on the council were often underclassmen who had to confer with the house president before they could make any decisions, anyway. We think the new arrangement would decide policies and council business."
Next Meeting Sundav
This organization will continue in operation, however, because it includes some representatives who are not members of the Pan-Hellenic Council.
The House President's association was organized last spring for the purpose of combating the fraternity tax action.
There was 10 fraternities represented at the council meeting. The election of Marshall was the only one to take place.
Additional business consisted of a general discussion of the fraternity tax situation. Pamphlets of the amended briefs of the case were passed out.

Hospital's Primary Purpose Is Health Committee Agrees
Rule Requiring Chaperon
No Reflection on 'Moral
Stability,' Dr. Ca-
nuteson Says
PLAN TO BE RETAINED
Health rather than morals was the deciding factor in the hospital chapel controversy, which terminated yesterday afternoon with the Joint Committee on Student Affairs agreeing to abide by the decision of Dr. Ralph L. Cautenus, director of Watkins Memorial hospital.
"The Joint Committee on Student Affairs, after consideration of both sides of the question of chaperns in the student hospital, has expressed its confidence in any decision that Dr. Cauleton may make concerning the matter, Harold Denton, c33, president of the Student Council, said last night.
'Necessity Is Obvious'
"The Men's Student Council, I'm sure, will fall in line with the feeling expressed by the committee. In co-operation with Dr. Canuteson, it may be possible during the year to work out some system whereby chaperons can more easily be provided to students finding it difficult to obtain them.
"The necessity of the chapferys as stem at the hospital is obvious when all the facts of the case are known."
The controversy started recently when the committee on recommendations of the Men's Student Council submitted a resolution to abolish the system, but the committee opposed it by a chaperon when visiting a student of the opposite sex in the hospital. The council and the Women's Self Government association favored the resolution. Many students assumed the attitude that men were not permitted upon the morals of the University students.
Dr. Cau腾 explained that the ruling is not directed at student morals It is for the benefit of their own health he said, since even a cold can be transmitted by a kiss. The presence of a chaperon has a certain influence in thus preventing the spreading of colds, he explained.
Students to Benefit

John Beklebike, 234, editor of the 1933 Jayhawker, urged that seniors have their pictures taken for the senior section in the yearbook as soon as possible. The rush will start soon and the pictures must be in early.

Before the work of rating the building begins, a fence is to be built around the structure. The fence will be of the wire variety, and not of boards, so that students of building wrecking will be assured a full view of the proceedings.
To Move Sidewalks to Safer Place and Raze Building
Newton's Theory Triumphs
The A.S.C.E. meeting which was to have been tomorrow night has been postponed until Oct. 2f, so that they may attend Dr. Sutton's lecture.
Since Newton proved the theory of gravitation, and the fact that apples fall from a table will do so, Consequently, the east and south sidewalks around old Snow Hill are cut.
A crew of men started the work today of transplanting the walk on the east side of the building to a position about six yards further from the structure. This has been done as a measure of safety since students are notoriously addicted to going without hats. It is also possible that a hat wouldn't do much good anyway and couldn't enter into space and come to rest on the head of some passing student, or even one who was funking.

H. Lindley
...
E. H. Lindley
A real, honest-to-gooodness Jayhawk in everything but name, perch proudly on a bookcase in Chancellor E. H. Lindley's office. This little known character has been called "a tounus," is a recent gift of Dr. Richard L. Sutton to the Chancellor.
Dr. Sutton, who is presenting an illustrated lecture tomorrow night on his visit last summer to the north, captured two live toucents while on an expedition to Central America a year ago. One of these birds which popped up on the trip home, but the other was placed in the Kansas City zoo.
Bird Resembling Jayhawk Is Presented to Lindley by Dr. Richard L. Sutton
Chancellor Lindley was promised the bird, should it die. When Dr. Sutton returned from his acjour sorest summer, he found that the toucan had expired. The fowl was stuffed by a powdered snow repose in the Chancellor's office.
The Pi Upsilon fraternity once has one of these birds and kept him alive for several months. He passed away dramatically one fall day in 1928 when the University of Missouri beat Kansas in a football game. The toscan was reported to have died of shame, and a broken heart.
The toucan is a rare bird found prin-
cipally in British Honduras. Exceptu-
for the coloring, which is yellow and
black instead of crimson and blue,
the toucan is a replica of the "fighting Jay-
hawk."
