Mt. Oread Owes Her Many Trees to Activities on Arbor Day in 1878
Dr. E. H. S. Bailey, professor Emerelia of chemistry, who came to KU in 1883, has written a reminiscence of "Those Campus Trees."
It seems that some 60 years ago the only building standing on at what is now New York City's Upper West Side "The entire hill had something of a barren and lacked appearance," writes Elizabeth McCann.
"On the hillside to the north there were few trees of any size, only perhaps a dozen varieties of native trees, and beside a little brook that ran in that direction. Standing on the top of the dome of Fraser hall and looking toward the town, a view which today is common, was the point from where visitors from abroad, one of the finest to be seen anywhere, some trees were to be seen along the streets of the city, but they were small and inconspicuous, unlike the city." Dr. Bailey pointed out that at that time the campus extended west only to a hedge running across the hill near the point where the campus met the campus "Beyond this hedge," said Professor Bailey, "the freshman could look across acres of rocky hilltop. Perhaps in those lone

Anonymous Sheet Arouses Curiosity in Political Fight
Appearance of Non-University Men as Distributors Deemed Illegal
PARTIES GIVE DENIALS
Men's politics were again paraded before the student body and the evidence striven over the campus this morning when an anonymous political sheet entitled "Why? and an Orundale rally were distributed before $30 classes.
The Why sheet was passed out by men older in appearance than students and violated in effect a University policy of posting on posters on the campus without a statement of the organization issuing it, the district board of Mend Nichols, executive secretary to the Chancellor, that this ruling would apply to handbills or distributed posters.
It was allowed to have been written by "men who are not actively engaged in the dark world," and Pachacki-Pechalino made "Orca-Kayhawk parties," and the main argument presented was that fraternity men, including university men, should rule on a basis of quality rather than quantity. It also stated that the Orcad party had "no interest in getting into power and then changing the existing election and government system, and "cannot be entirely blamed for having failed in this high
All Parties in Denials
Authorized statements from both the Kayhawk and the Pacachacane groups denied any participation in the publication of the sheet, and Phil Cook, 1922, said he would know anything about it other than seeing a distributed copy. The Kansan was unable to reach Edward Ripley, who reported for a statement from that party.
The other political sheet, the Oread-Kayhawk Bulletin, was in the form of a book by William K. Tilsen, 134, president of the Men's Student Council, headed "Draw Your Own Conclusions." It takes up Pachascha and Wynne as columns column marked "What the records doow" and concerns钥匙, N. S., A. conference, closed right vignettes.
Points to Oreads
It also contains a statement quoted from the second issue of the Pachacane News, saying, "Elsewhere in this issue will be found a short summary of Pachacane's record of achievements in the field." It was there to such summary in that issue.
The Pachacumac group made no comment on this bulletin but a statement was issued by Phil McKnight, c33, campaign manager of that party, concerning the Why sheet and attributing it to the Oroed party. The statement
"Why No Accknowledgements?"
I believe the handbill is a poorly constructed party and its policy of giving the non-fraternity man a square sign. If the handbill means that he insults them why didn't the writers come out in the open end sign their names. It should be perfectly obvious that the writers of the handbill are the advocates, if not the leaders, of the party. The history of the Oread party shows that."
The Kayhawk club as vigorously denied any knowledge of the "Why" sheet, which had a statement saying "This is not a third party movement," in issue issued by Patrick M. Manus, c. 35, president of the club. The read statement:
"After reading this, it is not a third party sheet" which came out this month, but which the fraternity had a thing to do with it. It violates all principles of demos.
