Time Shows Changed Customs as Grads Find Older Traditions the Same After Many Decades
To you old grads, and to you visitors, the University, the MII, the organized houses, and all Lawrence welcomes you and only asks that you consider some of our traditions. Most of the traditions are old and hardy, they need care and will endure and hope that the years will change them to traditions.
Old McCook field used to be a trait, Van. the animal man, is more of an institution but, after all, his team had its best record in the "hawks" and "medica" are Kansas traditions. Remember the night shirt parade? We have kept that trust system since the 1960s. The football game of each season, all Massachusetts avenue is full of skum-dancing pajamas and old nightshirts. The shows are still free to the shirtdressed youngsters. You'll see that the "KJ men still spank deserving yearlings and that the freshmen are still willing to play. It stands between halves of the game."
Remember, the old hearse that comprised a part of the funeral train of every school that ever played the day game in New York City, who brought out of a fertile imagination? That old hearse was stolen by the boys from Nebraska and taken to Lake Michigan, the burgy was headed back for Lincoln on the "Cornhusker" train. Some one rescued it and put it out in the country. It's doing service as a
tradition, too. We've tried our best to keep that but some of the other schools have the identical idea. We haven't had a fight on against Missouri. Watch
During the last eight or nine years there have been lots of things started that were not well-known, but a basketball team has a regular tradition. For six successive seasons they have won the NBA title.
There's so many more that they are too many to tell about. All K, U, is a tradition. The school its spirit, its campus, and its professors all make up the traditions that live through the years with the "old
Each year, just before the Christmas vacation, we have our big lighted tree and program. It is called the K. U. Christmas Tree Fund." All contributions are sent to the promoting international fraternity for young, we already consider it a tradition and count it among the best.
Out behind the Administration building, you'll find the Rock Chalk Cafen. That's one of our best. When you step on the other rock is added. So the pile will grow and be a fasting tribute to the advancement of the school. Another situation that is held every fall at the stadium. The whole purpose has been to impress all new students in unfailing school joy and spirit.

Story of Life of Dean Walker Reveals His Accomplishments As an Engineering Authority
For many years the alumi're turning for Homecoming, particularly those who were students under Ursula F. Walker, Dean of the School of Engineering and Architecture at the University of Kanaas. To his many friends the joy of Homecoming will be said, with a hand chop and cheerful greeting.
The recollection of his tragic death, which occurred Sunday, night, Oct. 16, will again bring to mind the many valuable contributions he made to his friends, his school and his state. The motive of the suicide is unknown, but apparently Don Walker departed after his tenure with his home, his students, fellow teachers and associates of the University and of the state assumed the role of state unit in praising Mr. Walker for the great tasks which he performed so successfully and which probably overburdened him, causing his death.
He received his M. M. E. degree from Corellau in 1901, and returned to his Alma mater to become a teacher and instructor in engineering. Later he worked on the engineering staff of the Newport News Shipping Company, and he graduated from the University of Maine, where he taught for a short time before compiling his thesis. He was professor of mechanical engineering at the University of Kansas and was made Dean of the School of Engineering.
In state service work he was prominent as a consulting engineer, an expert on petroleum and research worker, a research worker making extensive reports on possible
lities for industrial development in the state.
The belief was expressed by a member of the Board of Regents that Dean Walker had a better vision of what would happen than any other man in the state.
Last spring he received an excellent offer from the University of Minnesota, but he preferred to remain in California, with educational relations were happy.
In an address at Junction City recently, Senator Caper said: "Protect the state from the promise to the idea of developing Kansas opportunities and resources which was unmanually indicted." The plans were broadly based on a state ten year plan by Mr. Walker.
More than a year ago Governor Paunen, being impressed by Dean Walner's suggestion of important leaders in his office, where the Dean presented his ideas. Later the state Chamber of Commerce assumed the active position and appointed pamphlets were written by Dean Walner in which this movement toward the development and publicity of Kannas industrial opportunity was
Welcome Old Grad
Dean Walker wrote many technical articles for magazines, and he is the author of a book, "Management Engineering" which is his largest single contribution to engineering literature. The book "industrial Coal," published by the American Engineering Council in 1973, also contains articles written under his supervision.
Cancellor Lindley, in speaking at the funeral of Dean Walker said, "He had clear convictions, a sense of justice and a moral integrity. He was an excellent quality in the work of the School.

The Tri Delta sorority at the University of Arkansas is offering a selling contest. The money received from the sale is used to send the university band to a concert.
An article tound in a November issue of the University Daily Kunanu in 1920 carried the news that Missouri was expecting 10,000 people to attend the Kunanu-Misouri game in Columbia. Today, seven years later, the Missouri game will be attended for 35,000 persons to witness the clash between the two schools.
The increased interest in football, the completed stadium, the improved highways leading into Lawrence, and the increased documentation account for the added 25,000.
