Reading Is Given at Y. W. Vesper by Prof.Crafton
Inter-Racial Commission of Y. W. C. A. to Have Charge of Next Meeting
The Y, W, C, A. vespur was held yesterday afternoon in Fraser chapel. The meeting was given over to the reading of the "Terrible Meek" by Prof. Allen Crafton. Miss Helen Marcell had charge of the meeting.
"The Terrible Meek" is a story of the crucification of Christ as told by the officer in charge of the death penalty a soldier who executed Him by His mother, these being the only people who were left at the tomb.
The story opens with a dialogue between the officer and the soldier. The officer tries to justify under the name of duty his saluting of an innocent man. In his own words he says, "We both did our duty in blindness," and the soldier replies, "It's rather late for us to be thinking about it now."
Mother Tells Story of Life
Next Vesper Tuesday
The second scene is a monologue by Mary Magdalene, the mother of Christ, in which the continuous thread of the life of Jesus is put into words. "The third dialogue is between the officer and the mother at the court," he writes. The murder that he has committed, the last, speeches are between the officer and the private soldier. The latter comes from the general with orders for an attack on the enemy. The officer he refuses even though he is admonished that refusal means death.
The inter-racial commission of the Y. W. C. A. will have charge of the next vespener service, Tuesday afternoon. The meeting is one of a series giving the contributions of the various races.

"Future Planning Is J. C. Nichols' Convocation Topic
College Training Gives Man Creative Ability and Enthusiasm, Said Speaker
"The development of a certain sense of obligation, responsibility, and enthusiasm, is the most valuable thing that may be acquired from a university education," said J. C. Nichols of Kansas City, who was the main speaker this morning. His subject was "Planning for the Future."
Mr. Nichols is one of the most outstanding men in many fields of Kansas City civic and business life, according to Chancellor Lindley. He was a graduate of Harvard, and has since been actively interested in improved real estate. President Coolidge has recently appointed him a member of the national committee for the improvement of the District of Columbia.
"A good college training gives a man creative ability, whether he decides with materials or ideas. At college, you must develop the capacity to regulate the activities of later life.
K. U. Affected Nichols' Business "My life at K. U. has affected all my business activities," Mr. Nichols said, "and in all my contacts with others I have noticed that: college men have a better ability to understand and analyze problems, and to visualize the future."
Student Leader Is Business Leader
"The student who always takes part and is a leader in university affairs is the one who will lead in business and civic activities. The man who always criticizes the student leaders is the sort who will spend his life helping to sacrifice himself to help right the conditions with which he is discontented.
"There has never been a time in the history of America when there were greater opportunities open to university graduates than there are now. The many vital problems to be solved, such as the great agricultural problems of the Middle West. Such problems must be faced with a mind free of previously formed conclusions, and then the situation and reach a conclusion.

Cities Have Changed Greatly
"Cities have changed more in the last 20 years than in the last 2000," according to Mr. Nichols, "because of efficient city, town and county planning. The time has come when the interest of the public is paramount to the interest of individual welfare. "Go back to your communities," Mr. Nichols commanded the students, "and make it the most harmonious environment that it is possible for it to be. Give a domestic peace to the residential districts, and group your public buildings as they will form a community of crystallized public life and make better man and better citizens."
Success Depends on Entsiasm
“Your success in life depends upon the enthusiasm you develop now,” he said. Stand for the cause and the intention to which you belong. A successful business requires all commercial and artistic success.”

Wire Flashes United Press
Washington, April 13—Post Master General New has issued a fraud order against the Marston firms of Missouri and operators of the organization, charging use of the mail to defraud foreigner.
Genève, April 13.—No illusions remained among the members of the League of Nations Preparatory Disarmament committee today relative to the failure of that body to achieve its purpose, which was the preparation of a convention or world-wide disarmament conference.
In a telegram received at 3:20 this afternoon by Doctor Allen, director of athletics, from Chihuahua, Mexico, it was definitely asserted that the Tarahumara Indian runners, both men and women, would be in Lawrence the day of the Kansas Relays.
Bulletin
It has been known that the men would run but as the women had returned to the mountains ahead of the men it was first necessary to send runners after them and bring them back to Chihuba to present the offer to them.
The telegram, from President Carlos M. Peralta, director of education in Mexico, said that the women had been found in the mountains and returned to Chihuahua. Three women will run from Kauai to Hawaii and three men will run from Kansas City, Mo., to Lawrence.
Coolidge Throws First Ball in Opening Game of National League
First Lady Displays Great Knowledge of Diamond Than President
No Kansans During Easter
limited Prada
Washington, April 13—President Coolidge takes his annual baseball game much as he takes other matters into consideration, but with considerable curiosity.
After he had performed his duty at the opening game here yesterday between the Senators and Red Sox by tossing out the first ball—an excellent throw, it was—he settled down in his chair in the box beside Ms. Coolidge and sat solemnly through the game.
Despite the president's lack of outward emotional display, he apparently enjoyed the game. He appeared to relish the spectacle. At one point, he leaned over the side of the box for several minutes and observed his opponent move with dug-out, as it determined to see everything there was to be seen.
The president nearly mislaid his cue yesterday. At the end of the eighth lining he got up, apparently thinking the game was over, as many people were leaving. When he saw it was not ended, he put on his overcourt and sat down again, staying to the end. Mrs. Coulidge is a spirited basketball. She kept her cue yesterday, an usual, and showed a keen interest.
The president arose yesterday for a "stretch" in the last half of the seventh game, one opening game he rose at the wrong part of the seventh, the first half. Mrs. Coolidge at the time plucked on his coat sleeve and finally

Starr Urges Seniors to Attend Meeting of Class in Fraser
Commencement Plans Will Be Discussed; J. S. Barrow Will Speak
Will Speak
The senior class will meet in room 205, Fraser hall, tonight at 7:30, according to Wilbur Starr, president. The meeting will be attended by the senior class, will be unable to attend the meeting because of the heavy rains between Ottawa and Lawrence.
J. S. Barron, LL.B.'00, of Kansas City, is the district manager of the National Life Insurance company in Kansas City. He was alumni secretary of the University at one time, and made a member of the board of directors.
"Every committee chairman will be expected to be there with a report for his committee," says Starr, "and anyone in the class who does not comply is treated as an uncomplaint to make when plans the class decides upon are announced."
Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni association, who has attended senior meetings for a number of years, said he had a handful of seniors had to make plans for the class because the majority of the class did not attend the meetings. Then the few live wires were accused of railroading their own cars.
"The only way to be sure that plans made will be satisfactory is to be there and take part in the business meeting." Mr. Ellsworth said. "The members of the class should want to go to the meeting whether they care about the business transacted or not, for they are particularly interested in it." Mr. Ellsworth was president of the alumni association last year and a popular speaker on the campus, to appear before them," he added.
Orchestra to Australia
Fredericks-Kearney Contract for Summer of 1928
The Fredricks-Kearney orchestra has been booked by the Canadian Pacific lines for an engagement in Sydney, Australia, during the summer of 1928. This is the second large contract that this orchestra has signed with the Music Corporation of America and has signed a contract with the Music Corporation of America for the summer of 1927. This is the first orchestra that originated west of the Mississippi river ever signed up by this corporation. The corporation controls nearly all the best orchestras in the country including Ten Worths, the Boston Orchestra, the Connexion's Original Nighthawks, and many other well known orchestras.
Freddick's and Kearney's orchestra will probably sail in early June 1988 to London. The orchestra turns in time to train for school again in the fall. A similar trip was taken by this orchestra last summer when they played on a student tour of four cities.
As soon as school is out this spring the orchestra will assume its contract with the Music Corporation of America. They will play in the east.

A new all concrete swimming pool 150 feet long, 80 feet wide, and costing $25,000 will be ready for use by May 2017. It is located under the direction of John Lindas, c'28. The location is on the Victory highway, at the west city limits, on block northwest of seventh and Arlington streets. There are no block reserved for the pool site.
The project is now about half conpleted. A large stucco bath house is being built at the north end of the pool, and all the framework and metal lath is now in place. The excavation work for the artificial lake is almost complete in the straight side, and half of one end of the concrete oval have been poured.
Raymond Nichols was elected president of the student council, Bates Huffaker, cheerleader, and James Smith, president of the senior class, in an election yesterday resulting in a landmark letting the Pachacamac party 27 of the 33 offices voted upon.
The cement bottom of the pool we have a gentle slope from the shallow water at the north end to the deepest part at the south end, where diving boards and slides will be installed. The pool is built into the side of a hill and the slope of the bank gives the pool the appearance of sloping unillit.
The pool when completed, according to Lindas, will be one of the best and most modern swimming pools in the State. It is expected that its advantageous location both for Lawrence residents and Victory highway tourists will be one of the most frequent points on the highway next summer.

Lawrence business houses will close from 1:30 to 3:30 the day of the Kansas Relays, according to a resolution posted yesterday by the merchant's bureau.

Stickers advertising the Fifth Annual Kansas Relays are at the athletic office and it is hoped that all students will paint them on their suitcases before going home.
