Graduate of K.U. Relates Activities in Darkest Africa
Negro Bishop's Experience as Missionary Told in All-University Convocation
DESCRIBES CUSTOMS
sity conversation this morning to relate his activities in a territory of the dack continent equal in size to that of his fat father, as a student on this campus, as a student on this campus.
When he was graduated from the University he went to Capetown, South Africa, as a missionary. About four years ago he was made a baboon in Kenya and then Machie and he asked to be sent back to Africa to continue his missionary work.
His work extended over a distance as great in distance as that from San Francisco to New York, and he has lived there for 400 miles there in the last four years.
Grain Storage Described
Particularly interesting was his description of the methods of thrashing in cattle, where they were born in Petersburg district. The natives store their grain in underground, well-ventilated cellars.
On one visit to a leper colony, he saw that lepers live in huts inside a village and they clumped on natives to each other impressed him, and said that it was not unusual to find the natives following their afflicted husbands or wives into the colony.
The next trip he told of was a visit to a native king in the northern part of Transvaal. He described the many difficulties encountered and the reception given them by the king, who was well dressed and was very much reverenceful by the natives.
The third experience he described was the sight of Victoria falls which is the greatest feature of 410 feet which our own Niagara has only a day of about 100 feet. Victoria falls is about a mile and half to the south of it, of which it can be head for about 20 miles.
Describes Curios
Among the curios he described were a chief's weapon, a Zafo shield made from the skin of an elephant curved by a native out of solid ebony, an African bed made out of woods which looked much like a stealth plane and the African piano which apparently is a foeverner of our xylophone. The sounding box was cut out of tin cans.
He is brought to mind the fact that the Zulu warriors, with their oak hide canoes, had only one known to have broken up the famed English square method of fighting.
giving Miss Etta Moten, fa21, sang two numbers. She was accompanied by Miss Ethyl Lane.
Bishop John A. Gregg, who spoke on the adventures of "R" R. U. Graduate in theology at the University of Chicago this morning has the distinction of having been elected to the presidency.
Upon obtaining an A.B. degree in 1902, Bishop Gregg went to Capetown South Africa, as a missionary.
Enters Missionary Work
In 1912 Bishop Gregoe was elected president of Edward Waters college in Florida. He became president of a college for the second time in 1920, he was named president of the college at Xenia, Ohio. This is the oldest and largest school maintained and controlled by colored people for colored youth.
When he was elected to the bishopry in May, 1924, he probably became the first University of Kansas graduate, hold such a position because he was elected by the trustee of Howard University at Washington D.C., to the presidency of that school. He declined the position, and returned to his work in South Africa, at
much less pay.
The other school for which he has served as president is the Bethel Institute at Capetown.

Prompt Service at Cafe

Last night a group of co-eds appeared on Robby's in their usual dress for sleepwear. They were offered services from these Kansas mere. This is the latest fad to reach America. The kids will be there, it will be.

1919 Class Will Vote on Gift, According to Lewis Severson
Memorial to Be Change
A letter from Lewis Severnan, AB, professor in the department of English, was received at the alumni office asking for the names and addresses of all the men who were named by him.
Mr. Severson, who is the trustee for the class of 1919 memorial fund, has found that he cannot secure the memorial designed by the class with the help of a class vote to obtain a class vote as to what shall be obtained as a class memorial.
At the time the class was graduate, it had just been decided to have some kind of memorial for the students and teachers of the war. The Memorial Union building and the Memorial stadium have been built since in honor of the war dead. The class decided to buy a bronze tablet from the 131 students killed in the war.
Since that time a table dedicated to the war dead has been put up in the Memorial Union building by the class of '24, and the class of '28 has been presented an enhanced photograph of all University students or graduates who died in the war.
