Juniors and Seniors in All 10:30 Classes Take Questionnaire
Education Project Committee Gets Students' Ideas of College Life
An inquiry concerning the student viewpoint on instructors, courses, the value of college and extra-curricular activities was given to junior and seniors in their 10:30 classes to take. The questionnaire is a student project period out by a committee under the leadership of Frank Klingberg, c°28.
The purpose of the inquiry is to verify and extend the investigation of last year, and to give the student an opportunity to express his viewpoint. The proposal has received official sanction, but the plan originated and the results will be made available later in the year.
Classroom Not Main Value
Further results from last year's questionnaire were made public Saturday among the information gathered in the fact that more students have realized their desires in the University by developing and enjoying personal friendships and from being inspired by good teachers, than from the inexperience they have gained in the classroom.
Other factors in order were the gaining of acquaintances with literature on subjects of interest, of the habit of being critical, of habits of study, and of extra-curricular activities participated in. Comparatively few answered that the experience in well-defined projects and habilitation during the full course was important factors in fulfilling their desires for college.
Cribbing Does Not Both Cribbing has not hindered the realization of the students' desires in 343 cases; in 48 cases, it has. Many reused to answer the question dealing with the harm of cribbing.
Figures as to "what college has done for me" will be made public in a few days.

Phi Beta Kappa Claims More Than Half of Famous People. Including Eleven Presidents
Ever since the establishment of Phi Beta Kappa at William and Mary College at Williamsburg, VA., 150 years ago, there has been much discussion among scholars, as to whether or not it pays to study hard enough to make the honor organization. A few things may be said in favor of it. From its beginning, the organization has moved to the number of over one hundred of which have been established within the last quarter of a century. There is less than one chapter for each million population of the country, and yet according to statistics, the order of the countries over our four centuries over of successful men.
In determining the success of it, John Chair Mint has selected those men who are included in the Hall of Fame. Thirteen out of 29 of these men were chosen to be members. This is approximately one-half of the total number elected to that honor and has remained constant throughout all time than far. Beginning with George Washington, the 11 of the presidents of the United States who were members.
Of the ten chief justices of the su
棠县 court, beginning with John Marshall and including Taft, there were five Pui Beta Kapaii or one more from the rest of the justice court more than 40 per cent, or a total of 29, have been members. From two to four members sitting on the court bench each, have been from the honor group.

"Among the natural foods, lettuce and liver were the most potent," described Doctor Evans, "and they, therefore, have a second member of the vitamins, to which designation F will be given." Lettuce when heated and dried failed to give the good results of the product, the investigation showed.

Doctor Evans has to his credit also, the discovery of vitamin E₁ at one time known as vitamin A₁ a lack of which brings about sterility. Oil from the germ of the wheat grain is than any other food source of this necessary food requirement.
When a diet of purified food elements consisting of caenin, and reconstituted cane sugar, certain necessitated cane sugar, the five recognized vitamins A, B, C, D and E, were fed to children with an absence of anatomy, the animals failed to reach more than half size. Then recently this diet contained all the elements necessary for the health and happiness of rats, but not humans. Growth stopped altogether and the animals remained secondly immature. Natural food had to be resorted to, to supplement what might be called a chewable meal. The animals then grew growth and converted into healthy adult animals.
Of our 40 secretaries of state, 18 have been Phil Beta's, and in "Who's Who" it is found that these honor students have a fifty-fifty chance with others of making the distinction. In the latest edition nearly six thousand are members out of the total of 1,547. This includes a student has a change of 1,157 of making "Who's Who" while the honor student has a chance of 1,59.
Borkeley, Calif., March 19. -The day when we will live on synthetic concentrated pills of food is yet far distant. Yet science's latest attempt to raise laboratory animals on artificially devised diets of pure foods have led to the discovery of the new vitamin P. recently announced by Herbert B. M. Evans of the University.
Dr. Gerald Wendt, dean of the school of chemistry and director of industrial research at Pennsylvania State College, gave an address on "American Chemical Research in 1928" at the regular monthly meeting of the American Chemical Society in Kansas City and Staten Island department of chemistry of the University of Kansas who attended the meeting meet

Of course figures can be made to prove anything but. It would seem clear that the golden doors of opportunity are opened to the fame seeker for easier through the course of study thin from any other. Even when you have a new book, it worth while to stop and contemplate this, when the bug to loot bites the spring. It should spur him on in the pursuit of that coveted key.

chorus Choir to Topeka
Engagement Was Kept Contrary to Announcement
The chorea chair of the First Presbyterian church, composed of 45 University students, song at the Westminster Presbyterian church in Topika yesterday evening, contrary to the announcement that it would not go on account of the fire at the First Presbyterian church here.
The announcement was made because it was believed that all the muscle and vestments the chair was to use in Topeka had been destroyed. Sunday morning it was known that most of the body part only water soaked and after being dried and ironed was used at the performance.
The choir chair was assisted by Mali Missiib Maore, professor of violin, and Waldemar Geltch, professor of violin. The choir, it was announced, did the finest singing in its history. The choir, which was given before a packed church, the choir chair of the Topika church presided at a tea for the visiting choir.

Capper Demands Party Repudiation of Oil Men
"The Heart of a Follies Girl"
Soon—
ROSE MARIE
Washington, March 19—The Republican party must make plain by forceful action that "it indignantly repudiates the men who participated in the rape of the government oil lands," Senator Arthur Cappel, Republican, Kauai, said toong
"The amusement of oil is being smelled blackly across the pages of history," Carper says. "The trail is all obscure, and reeking with corrosive heat."
The Kansas senator suggested laws with "peace in them" to limit camp campaign expenditures and to require that the real source of every contribution be a matter of public record.
"The Republican party must purge itself from the oil smudge," Capper said.
"Republican leaders must realize that they must face the mouse or the party will play the fiddler. The issues cannot be evaded.
"The leaders may condone.
"The public will not forget."

Here's some "inside stuff" on smoking
SOMEWHERE in the neighborhood of your center of gravity there's a spot devoted to smoke appreciation. We could describe it more fully, but this is no organ recital. The point is: Light a Camel, pull in a fragrant cloud of cool joy—and listen to your smoke-spot sing out—"Haleeeloya!" As the noble redskin puts it—we have said! R. J. REYNOLDS TOBACCO COMPANY.
