Co-Operative House for Graduate Women Is Opened This Fall
Three Other Houses Formerly Owned by the University Have Been Sold
A new co-operative house, Ricker hall at 745 Ohio street, was opened this fall for University women. The house, which was left in the hands of the university administrator, several years ago, has been rented in past years to self-supporting girls and women. The committee has asked that it be used for students in medical school, according to Dora Bryant, assistant director of women.
The three co-operative houses, formerly owned by the University housing committee, were recently sold. It seemed adviable to pay out on the houses in a shorter time than the 19-year payment plan which had been originally decided upon, and therefore the alternative of selling the houses was agreed. Waking half, the houses were crowding now as many girls as the co-operative jobs have in the past, has made the need less imperative.
The Writa Winton house at 1208 Mississippi island has been sold to Dr. John Dee of the department of economics. The Lakota house, at 1122 Obo has been sold to Mrs. Michelle, who intends to rent it. The only house that is retained and has now been restricted to graduate women
Miss Corb'in Starts Plan
The rule of the houses was not the result or any lack of success on the part of the co-operative plan. The co-operative idea has proved to be an great aid to approximately forty University students each year since the three houses were organized, Mrs. Bryant said.
The plan for helping students who are self-supporting started here an under the influence and work of Miss Alberta Corbin, at that time dean of women. Room rent was prohibitive because she wished to attend the University.
Buildings Are Purchased
The first co-operative home was opened in the Fall of 1919, and two others were purchased in 1921. Since it was impossible at that time to rent suitable buildings for the bulk of his business but to buy the buildings, Dean Cronen went to the Chamber of Commerce with the matter, and a plan was packed out for acquiring the three buildings.
Credit for his marked success should be given, Mrs. Bryant, to the local bank's friends of the University, and to the townpeople, together with Miss Cordell, who initiated the memorandum for the mortgages placed on the houses, made possible the plan of helping worthy students.

K. U. Observatory Records Change of Climatic Condition Has Been Established 60 Years
How much rain did Karen get last month? Or how did rock the nomenclature show the days and nights to be? Was there any wind blowing? Was there any snow? Where were from, how long did it show where for, and how often?
There are a few questions that might be asked of the weather observatory operations of the University, and in all probability these and more more questions of like nature, are determined and with little trouble.
A study of the weather sheerly and its functions brings to mind the history of the state meteorological data. The data has been in existence for nearly 100 years.

When, in 1908, the management of the station changed hands, H. P Cady, of the liquid air and other
chemical farms, omitted control. For five years he was in charge of the office and when, in 1913, he ceased to maintain it with wetness, weather and what not. C. K. Young took his place. E. counts on that P. F. Kessler was given in line for the job and it was given him in 1916, only to pass on to K.B.C. Hoeves for a brief interval in 1925 and 1929. Following Moore, W. P. Hoeves took charge for a few years. C. J. Pussey was given the offence of state misrehearsal, with the union under his control.

Mr. Perry has controlled the station for a period of time that is seen only to that during which Mr. Perry was in charge. Seven years of service in this office has given him that distinction.
And now when the floods, the Kansas tornadoes, and storms place the country in inexorious circumstances, we turn to the weather recorders to please the powers. May they give us smooth rating for a time at least.

Interior Decoration Expected to Be Complete Within Three Weeks
The new auditorium, not much more than a pile of stone when students left Mt. Oread, has now taken on the appearance of the splendid building that it is to be when it is completed sometime before Nov. 16.
The brick which marred the appearance of the sides of the building has been covered with the halfway inscription, "In the name of the 1927 legislature, and the second ballast provided for in the same appropriation is well on the side."
The interior of the building, last spring filled with the scaffolding used in finishing the ceiling, now is open and ready for painting. The interior. The plaster work is complete, being finished in a neutral tint. Inside workers, it is predicted, will be able to paint the walls and floor is to be laid, the stairway to the second balcony is to be concreted, and the haseboards are to be placed. It has been built but the wiring has been finished.
General odds and ends which must be finished in all buildings will be taken care of immediately.
The organ, which is now in Fraser hall, has not been moved but will be in the near future. The organ, a Wurlitzer purchased from the New York store, is one of the best in the near vicinity. The building will be musically dedicated on Nov. 16, when Gall-Curi, world famous soprano will be presented as the first number of the UniMelody series. An official dedication will be held later.
Slosson Discusses War
The building has seating capacity for 5500 persons. The Floor will also be used for the first time in many years the University will be able to accommodate the many basketball fans who play there, and the famous Kansas squad in action.

Chemical warfare is seen by Doctor Slosson as a constant growth since the invention of gunpowder, and he regards it as one of the most important therefore, not the elimination of chemical warfare but its limitation to the older and more ineffective weapons. It also means of killing he sees only the abhorrence of humanity for all warfare, brought to the surface by the abharence of new methods of killing.
