Delegates of Sigma Delta Chi Convention Hear Noted Publicist
A. Spender, First Recipien of Page Fellowship, Talks on Journalism
"Journalists are the people who must always put off today what they ought to do tomorrow," and J. Alerd Spenser, noted English Journalist and publisher, in his address before the Sigma Delta Chi conference, should never think today of what they are going to do tomorrow."
Chancellor Lindley, who addressed the numbers of the fraternity prior to the talk by Mr. Spander said, "We have come to think a great difference in our professions and not only in its professional status but in its relation to the University."
Mr. Lindley stated that it was difficult to spend much time on professions other than teaching, and it is hard to recognize that time must be spent in this way, however. When you teach freshman state you must pass again. No man can be fully prepared for professions other than teaching.
"Journalism is to become in liberal profession," Mr. Lindley said, "we congratulate you that you have a part in shaping the educational policy of
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1927
Ex-governor Henry J. Allen introduced Mr. Spender. He spoke of the two fellowships, one by Walter Himes Pages and the one given by the London Times, and said that he couldn't easily talk to a speaker the other fellow, Jr. Alfred Spender, who is a scholar, an author, and a first class newspaper man.
"Journalists are universal busy bodies." Mr. Spender said. "Everybody's business is that you have news. Newspapers give a great deal of time writing slowly. I find here, as in my own country, that almost all journalists are in trouble about their stories because they express themselves over 'the daily press.'
In Europe, Mr. Spendler said, there is not such a wide margin which is able to survive the political strife similar to those in those countries where we see every big public communication and realize that each one is stamping its heel down upon the press. Europe has seen this and is realizing that it will be much easier than the press will need and it will have its own Mussolini," Mr. Spendler said.
The initiation of ten pledges into Pen and Scroll was the chief purpose of a meeting held at the room of central administration building. The new members are Margaret Kerrigan, John Winton, John Winton, Kenneth Seitman and Milton Steinard, sonhomore; Dorothy Stanton, Ruth Beecham, and William Hayes, freshmen.

The League of Kansas Municipalities has some work contracted for which Mr. Smith will finish. This team requires several months for completion.
The work in Michigan will begin officially about Jan 1. Mr. Smith states: "I have enjoyed my role as staff of the League and the city officials. I am a Jayhawk and doubie to leave the opportunity is offered me."
Mr. Smith spent a few days last week in Michigan where plans were perfected for a program of reorganization and development of the services of the League of Michigan Mts. to assist Mr. Smith will take a leading part.
John G. Stuart, Executive Secretary of the League of Kansas Municipalities, said, "We regret very much to lose Mr. Smith from the staff of the League and that we should mention Mr. Smith is taking in Michigan offers excellent opportunities for him. Mr. Smith has been on the staff of the League for nearly three decades and he has dedicated many valuable services to the city of Kansas. His zoning and city planning services are monumental constructive city building which have allowed our city to improve. Mr. Smith is to the staff of the League when zoning was in its infancy. Now the state of Kansas has more zoned cities than any other city in the country. Much credit for this record is due to the leadership of Mr. Smith."
