Money From Sale of Candles Will Be Used as Loan Fund
Foreign Students Are Aided by Change of Receipts to Campus Use This Year
FOUR PAGES
That a foreign student loan fund will be established with the receipts of the sale of Christmas cards issued by the executive committee of the annual Christmas tree committee at a meeting held Sunday morning in the office of the president.
In past years it has been the custom to present the Christmas candles and gift cards to the social service office, the social service division of the World Student Christian Federation and to recognize former faculty member here at the University, if the foreign student serves as a volunteer.
Money Used on Campus
This year, however, it was, the opinion of the committee that the money should be put to some worthy cause. The fact that the security required, it is very difficult for foreign students at the University to obtain loans from the regular student loan fund. Members of the faculty would also demand that the establishment of a special loan fund, designed especially for the use of foreign students, would be a most desirable option. It would be a spirit and tradition of the Christmas candle sale.
The sale of Christmas candles will probably begin sometime this week. The Jay Jones will have charge of the candles, which are located in the various buildings on the campus. All organized and unorganized houses will be visited by mom, sister, grandmother, aunt or niece. A large pair of red and green candles will be given for each $10 subscription, whether the subscription be from an individual or an organized group.
No Special Assembly
The concession committee recommended that plans for a special conference be made, and that there should be considerable difficulty in securing an suitable speaker. Unless there are no special conferences, all plans there will be no special Christmas convention sponsored by the conference committee.
The Christmas tree program will be held Wednesday night, Dec. 14, in the auditorium of Frazer Hall and around the building to be used after the program the quartets, composed of members of the men's and women's clubs, will visit the valleys in which the musicians perform. The quartets will not start until 10:30 p.m. in this year, in order to give everyone plenty of time to get home from the program before the Christmas celebration.
Charles Haines, chairman of the basketball committee, reported that he and his team have a game between members of this year's varsity squad and a team made up of former Kawasaki stars. Ackerman said that other athletes have been asked to play.

In 1780 as a member of this council he was sent on a mission to Holland to borrow $8,000 but was told that it was not Newfoundland and taken to London where he was confined in the Tower. Here his health was impaired by the plague and died prominently in history by acting as one of the commissioners to negotiate peace with Great Britain. He signed an agreement together with Franklin and Jay.
The son of Henry Laureus died in the battle of Comashee, in South Carolina, his career son began, by his joining General Wainwright's staff. Now Prof. Henry Laureus is making a major country for his many publications concerning the relation of light to medical science. He was a former university professor.

And they work," he emphasized. "Well it's a good idea to do that in the first all after all rather difficult to produce."
"This comedy which the Dramatic club is offering is a tasty and effacious antidote for the present epileptic syndrome, pathetic treny and theatrical force make 'The youngest' a more amusing play than the same author's most gripping tale. Its details. I am absolutely convinced of the entertainment value of the play and that our enthusiastic cast will put it over." Professor Calderwood can conclude.
Manager Muyrs urged that attention to the sale of suites for the play which begins at 8:30 up Wednesday day, Dec. 7, in the lower floor of the Warner Bros. Holiday or any kits, he advised, should get their tickets early.

No Big Six Rules Are Adopted Yet Says Doctor Allen
Action Deferred Until May Next Meeting Will Be Held in Lincoln, Nebraska
Although many people had the idea that the joint meeting of Big Six directors and Missouri Valley athletic commission was finished with adoption of many rules and a constitution, the final result was that the committee on the Big Six constitution accepted the suggestion to make changes in the number of the directors and will have a constitution report ready for the meeting at Lincoln, Neb. May 18 and 19, according to Dr. Forrest C. Allen, Kansas University as athletic director.
The directors and faculty representatives of all these schools spent much time discussing the scouting process, including the schedule of schedules, but no action was taken on any of the three except the schedules of track, tracing, tennis
The constitution committee is composed of two faculty representatives, Dr. William S. Dempsey and W. G. Manly of Missouri, and Athletic Director Nelson Meiselc, of Iowa.
The actual recommendations concerning Big SAS rules were made first at the annual meeting of the City Thursday, submitted to the athletic directors who likewise submitted them to the faculty representatives, and then were them turned over to the committee.
Coaches Recommend Rule:
"Although two different groups were at the meeting there was no agreement on who Allen. The group would meet for a session in a Missouri session. No action in a big session. No action of any sort, and no change of any rules were made. Six skateboards were added. Allen added."

The height of something or other was demonstrated a few days ago when settlement was made of a litigation which began 115 years ago, and the settlement was paid for the sinking of the schooner Lord Nelson on the Great Lakes in the War of 1812. The award represented a claim of $2,990.25 plus interest for 116 years and is for distressing 22 hotels of the lost James Crooks.
U. S. Makes Settlement of 115-Year-Old Claim
Two hundred and eighty new students are falling six or more hours, according to statistics at the University. The reason for this condition, as it seems to Miss Maria Roberts, dean of junior college, are high school students and trying to earn most of their expenses while carrying a full schedule. The grade appears to be lower than expected, according to Miss Roberts.
Thirteen days before the outbreak of the War of 1812, the Lord Nelson was seized by the American government. Shortly afterward she was killed while trying to capture the ship of the war James Crooks, owner of the vessel, led his complaint for damages. Repeated delays deferred settlement.

Showed Moral Courage
He Always Kept
The recent death of Herbert S. Hadley brings to the minds of many of his contemporaries many incidents of his life, which have not issues. This incident is related by M. M. Ferris in the book *The Kansas City Star*:
The death of Herbert S. Hadley is a reminder of the time when he was the Republican nominee for prosecuting attorney here in 1900. He then became the Governor, very well known here, coming from Kansas only a few years previously.
The closing meeting of the county campaign was at Convention hall, where the council voted on a list of seven or eight speakers and candidates. The hall was well occupied, with about 150 people had been very oppressive towards Republican voters. The North End ran in that recount. "Various speakers were present," he said. Liberties being violated, of flagrant civil nuisances and of unparallels of power, and so forth. Others spoke in favor of the bill. In other ways, the speaker before Hadley "proply pointed" as did others, to criticize it for not coming past." Then he became vehement and, historial, ringing in Magina Charta, the Bill of Rights and King John仕 his audience didn't know who Magna was, but knew the Bill of Rights was not a local issue and that King John was
Then Hadley arose, a quiet, studious, shorter young man, not yet 30. A declaratory address was expected, studioled in Kansas University. Many began walking out, but stopped at the door. Hadley's ringing voice was beaten on the microphone. He learned that
A group of women of the University will meet this afternoon in the auditorium of central Administration to decide whether or not there is a demand for a chapter of the Woman's League at the University of Kansas.
His tart hall, full of ginger quickened the blood and stimulated the heart. He was at the polls, 48 hours later, the whole election was over, and a glorious victory, Hadley leading.
Women's Voting League May Form Chapter Her
The women who have been asked to attend are mostly political science students. In many cases, they are believed to have a special interest in an organization of this type. If you want to join a chapter, the next meetings will be thrown open to all the women of the group.
