Kansan Directory Will Be Available Before Sept. 28
List of Students, Faculty and Staff to Be Run in Two Tabloid Sections
SIX PAGES
The University will have a student and faculty directory this year before Sept. 28, according to Alfred Graves,生意 advice of the University. The Kannan will publish the directory as a sery ice to its subcurrents.
"The project will cost the Kansan several hundred dollars but we feel that the service to the University will be worth the cost." Mr. Graves said, "Last year no directory was available until January, when it was so late as to be worth little. The directory published by the Kansan will students who enroll before Sept. 18 as well as all the faculty and staff."

Stremple, 488, of the University for K. U. students and all those with an interest in the University. Everything printed in the paper is written by students in the department of journalism. The paper is in a real library and should be supported by them.

Activity Tickets Are Sold In New Way This Year
With a new auditorium and a completed stadium furnishing greatly increased facilities for sports and all other athletic events in the year, a new system of handling activity tickets designed to make conditional even better has been put in force.
Division of the sale of athletic tickets and tickets for other events is the chief feature of the new system Athletic tickets will not be sold at registration as in previous years, but are instead purchased directly. The regular activity tickets will be on sale at the time of registration as usual and the usual exemption card must be secured by those not desired to avail themselves or opportunity to buy tickets for other activities at the reduced rates.
The activity ticket, at $1.75, will allow admission to the grid graph play in a town football games, and to concert by the University band, orchestra and men's and women's clue clubs, as well as to the Dramatic Club play. The athletic all-sports ticket, at $8 secures admission to all athletic events for the school year. These in-game games, like base basketball games, sign kettleball four wrestling matches, three run track meets, and the Kansas Relays.

Transcripts Received by Foster Indicate Average Enrollmen
Method of Registration to Be Much Similar to That of Last Year
of Last Year
With prospecta for an approx-
mately normal enrollment this year
Registrar George O. Foster and
his staff are ready this morning to
register those entering the University of
Kansas for the first time. This in-
cludes freshmen and advanced stand-
ing students who enroll Sept. 13.
Freshmen enrolling Sept. 14 will regis-
ter Monday.
Registration for those who have attended the University in previous years will begin Monday, Sept. 12 and Wednesday, Sept. 13. Registration may be made at any time during the three days, provided it is completed by the time of enrolment. The penalty for not attending for late enrollment is the same.
Enrollment in classes will be by the plan followed in previous years. College students will enroll in Robinson gymnasium according to the regular initial schedule. The schedule for this semester is printed elsewhere on the cover of the University book with their respective deans, and will be enrolled in the order in which they present themselves.
Littleikelihood of a record enrollment is indicated this year, though the figures are not likely to be accurate. Though no count has been made, the number of transcripts received at the registrar's office during the summer is about the same as usual, according to Rubie, secretary to the registrar.
The number entering with advanced standing this year will be fully as great as in the past, according to the results of all of the advanced standing committees.
The chief difference in registration that will be noted by those who have been on the Hill in past years will be the increased schedule of fees announced last spring and put into force at the beginning of summer school.
Memorial Board Elects
Five new members of the board of directors of the Memorial Corporation, in charge of the Union building, were chosen at a meeting of the board June 12. The new members are Raymond Nicolem, N.A.

mless exemption is secured at the time of registration. Exemption cards or either the Jayhawker or the activity ticket book may be secured on a second floor of central Administration, the same as last year.
It is particularly stressed by those in charge of the sale of both the activity and the athlete books that the sports office has chased the books. For example, it is pointed out at the athletic office that the season ticket for football games alone is $5.00, more than the average price offered if purchased in book form.
The activity books, in addition to sing cheaper than ever before, will be made more valuable by reason of the increased facilities given by the men's student advisor, declared in peaking of the new plan. All the rid graph reports of football games and basketball games given there, and the building will also furnish a stage on the campus or University dramatics. Until this car it has always been necessary to have a downstreet heater or auditorium.
Purchase of the all-sports athletic jacket does not automatically reserve cots for football, basketball and the other sports, but made, however, at no additional cost. The date of making reservations of cots for these events will be announced later by the athletic office. Dress code for Day Kamaan and other mediums.

Crowding between the wall and the country in the business office is a blight of the post, now that the county is moving forward to position in the wall between the hall of east Ad. building, and the office, opening on both sides to give access to the office.

Delays at an End
The southern blocks for the finishing of the grade alley-way were received last week and will be put in place in a few days. This has been delaying work. There is no question that the grades will go on without further delays.
Now that the building is nearing completion it is possible to realize that the University will have a place at the herding, and a home for all activities.
The alley-way, when completed, will be one of the finest corridors in the Valley, and the large concourse above it provides a great view. The men's and women's lounging rooms will care for about three hundred persons. There will no longer be a question of where to put the ladies' chairs on the Day, the banii visitors, and others.
Made Possible by Gifts
The building was made possible through pledges, 11,740 people pledging $500,372.64 for the creation of a stadium, a Jimmie Green memorial, and the Union building. Up to April 2018, amounting $500,398 had been collected.
An entire floor is being used for the cafeteria, one of the most complete in this section of the country. Equipment as fitted for the new building was moved from the old Communal room; new equipment was purchased
Law Students Honored
Total credits to date amount t
$596,301.19.
The building, when dedicated, will have three floors practically completed. The Memorial Corporation erected and paid for one-half of the stadium, and since then the income from the stadium has made it possible to compile the structure. The stadium has a seating capacity of 30,000.
The Jimmie Green memorial, a bronze statue in front of the law building, Green hall, was erected and paid for two years ago. This memorial was in honor of Uncle Jimmie Green, first dean of the School of Law.
Pond and Pond, architects for the building, employed the DuPond company of Chicago, at a cost of $700, to plan the cafeteria.
The Union building when completed will be used entirely and exclusively in a community center for students. Rooms are to be used in the building.
Three students of the School on Law were elected to the Order of the Cuff, national honorary law school society, in June. They are: Frank S. Klein, Kansas City, Mo.; and Lester L. Morrison, Agricola, Members of the order must rank among the highest ten percent of the senior class, and membership in the order is considered the student can obtain. In addition to the men elected here, Joseph Ream, A. P. 25, was elected to the Order at Yale.
Three Floors Complete
Delivery service of the University Daily Kanaan, which resumes publication with this issue after the summer vacation, will begin this year earlier than ever before. Carriers will begin delivery with the issue of Monday, Sept. 12. The paper will appear in the morning until next week, when the change will be made to the regular evening schedule.
A special effort will be made this year to deliver every subscriber his paper every day. In order that the papers be kept neat and beat, the management is asking that any missed papers be promptly reported to the Kannan business office.

Auditorium Musically Dedicated by World Famous Artist First of Season
Galli-Curci, world famous soprano,
will musically dedicate the new auditorium,
Nov. 16, with the first concert of
the annual Concert Course.
Galli-Curci is one of the foremost artists in the musical world today. In the roles of the famous heroes of opera, Gilda, Viola, Liotteia, Lucia and others, as well as in concert she has revealed the beauty of her art. She is one of the five highest paid artists in the world, and this is the reason a Lawrence audience has had the privilege of hearing her in concert here.
Gov. Bent S. Paulen, the members of the Board of Regents, and other prominent persons of the state interested in the University will be guests of the School of Fine Arts at the dedication.
Three other artists of renowned fame will appear in concerts here completing the Concert Course offered each year by the School of Fine Aires under the management of Dean D. M. Swarthowitz of that school.
The other artists appearing and the dates they will be here are: Jan. 9. Albez - Spalding, violinist; Feb. 7. Albez - Spalding, violinist; and March 1. Joseph Lefevre, pianist.
All of the concerts this year will be held in the new auditorium. It is the twenty-fifth season for the School of Fine Arts and all artists are being brought here for that reason and because of the fact that this is the first course offered in the new auditorium it is a jubilee event and we will start with Shortwork, the School of Fine Arts.
Tickets for the complete course are now on sale at the office of the School of Fine Arts, Round Corner Drug store, and Bell's Music store. The prices are $0.90 for all season tickets located on main floor and first ten rows under first floor gallery and back of the first ten rows under the first gallery.

An official dedication of the auditorium will be held at a later date than the musical dedication. Final arrangements for it have not been made, according to Chancellor E. H. Lindley. The pipe organ from Fraser chapel will be installed in the new auditorium by Nov. 16.
Advanced Standing Needs Permission to Register
Students entering the University with advanced standing for the first time this fall must secure permission to register before applying for registration with the registrar, Miss Nora Wilson. Students in advanced standing committee, cautions. In past years advanced standing students have often stood in line for a long time waiting to register, only to find that they must first secure permission from their school counselor. Those whose transcripts were received earlier in the summer have been sent permission cards. A number whose transcripts have been received have cards awaiting them at a library, building, and may secure them there.
Degrees Granted. 838
Eight hundred thirty-eight degrees were granted at commencement, June 8, before a record-breaking crowd of almost seven thousand persons. A new feature of the granting of degrees was the administration of the Oath of the Hippocrates to the candidates for the M. D. degree.

Mrs. Ethel M. Evans Is Head of New Commons; Many Changes in Help
Mrs. Ethel M. Evans is in charge of the cafeteria this year. New help in the kitchen has been obtained and all equipment has been overhaul and cleaned. She was previously connected with Pollocker's Teairon in Topeka. Before that she taught home economics at Gallup, N.M. For seven months she was with Bomars in Topeka. Mrs. Evans brings her mother, a woman, and salad woman with her.
The new University cafeteria, located in the Union building, opens for service Wednesday morning when students arrive on campus. Thursday evening Chancellor and Mrs. Lindley, the faculty members and their families, are ready to welcome students, as well, were entertained at dinner at the cafeteria. Jenny Wen Baking company furnished the biscuits and cookies, and furnished lawn milkery for the meal.
"The aim of the new cafeteria is to take the place of the home as much as possible in the students' lives," Ms. Evans said, and she said Friday. "The cafeteria does not intend to make any more than expenses," Mrs. Evans said, "and we want to serve as well balanced menus for fruits and vegetables particularly."
This year all three meals will be
prepared in 12-hour increments,
fast, 7:39-8:00, lunch, 11:30-1:30,
and dinner, 5:30-7:30. Sandwiches and

Carry Cards, Is Request
Merchants Ask That Students Identify Selves
That students carry their registration cards during the first few weeks of school is the request being made this year by downtown merchants, who believe that having ready this means of identification will prove a convenience to the students themselves. Especially when requesting credit is it desirable that the student have his registration card read, the merchants point out, as this saves unnecessary embarrassment and often protects the merchant from actual loss. Downtown stores have been imprinted on in the past by pervasive precreating themselves to be students.
Rather than take the chance of offending a student, merchants have often accepted a customer's word only to find that he was an impactor. If students will carry cards, this loss can be obliterated, the merchants believe.
Miss Ruth James, Belolt, and Mr. Richard Jackman, Lawrence, were married in Denver, August 21. Miss James received her degree from the University of Illinois as a member of Sigma Kappa sorority. Mr. Jackman was a student at the University in 1921 and 1922 will make their home in Lawrence.

More attention than ever before will be paid this fall to get freshman and others attending the Ullamuck and start right on their career on the Hill. The plan of having a freshman week, during which new students will be given educational and vocational education, is to be tried for the first time.
Features of the program are lectures on various aspects of campus life, the usual required talks to freshmen given each year by the chancellor, most of the lawrence churches.

The first step for all new students is to take the psychological examination as it is a prerequisite to registration and all other events. It may be given in person or by Fraser hall. Registration may take place any time after the psychological examination, but it must precede enrollment. At the time of registration, a student will be given a card giving him an appointment for a physical examination.
