Baker University Professor
Speaks Tomorrow
Balch to Talk at Forum
Prof. W, M. Bailch, of the department of meteorology at Baker University, will speak tomorrow at 12:28 P.M. Y. M. C. A. forum in Mershil may.
Professor Balch will speak on "Mexico, Nicaragua and Oil." He has just returned from Mexico, where he and several other men, under the leadership of Habert C. Herring went directly to the capitol of Mexico, where he selected a listed selection of Mexican and American men and women of importance.
The group secured from the president of Mexico an assent to recourse to arbitration which has given much annoyance to those who were hoping for military uprising and intervention in the country.
The party was made up of five rabbis, and the editors of the New Republic, the Northwestern Christian Advocate, Rural America, The American Hebrew, and The Christian Century.
"We were very fortunate to be able to secure Professor Balch just now as the question he will discuss is whether he should cause his address will directly contribute to the interest and information concerning the Pan-Pacific problems in general," said "The Shutt" of the Y. M. C. A., this morning.
These problems will be the subject of discussion throughout the Pan-Pacific conference to be held at the University March 11, 12, and 13, for the colleges of eastern Kanada. The conferences is under the auspices of A. G. A., and W. Y. C. A., with the co-operation of the Moncolomb Club.

University Has Only Five Days Supply of Coal; Hauling Is Stopped
Eli Jones, a truck driver for the department of building and grounds of the University, was arrested yesterday on a charge of violation of the new truck law which prohibits a truck carrying weight of over 13,500 pounds from using city streets.
This ordinance prohibits the three University five-ton trucks if loaded, from the streets of Lawrence. The matter is a serious one for the University has on hand only five days supply of coal, the rest being stored in warehouses, according to H. I. Ball, superintendent of building and grounds.
Mr. Ball got a special permit from the street commissioner to operate the trucks with a maximum total weight of 18,500 pounds, which is not quite three tons for each truck. This would require a lot of handling coal about 40 per cent.
An order was placed in the hands of the chancellor today recommending the purchasing of three three and one-half ton trucks with pneumatic tires to train the manufacturing of the old trucks. It will cost about $6000 to make the change.
The new ordinance also interferes with the hauling of brick for the new auditorium building, and the penitentiary was called this morning telling them to re-brick shipments until some settlement was made concerning the new law.
The University was dealt with rather unfairly as the city engineer and the commissioner of utilities had said that the University would continue to run the trucks loaded as usual until they were warned off or the overall removal.
handle, according to the building and ground department. When the first truck started out yesterday morning the driver was arrested and taken to jail. The driver was released after Mr. Ball had paid his bond.
"If the new trucks are purchased the old ones will necessarily be sold for a loss. Their original cost is lower than the cost of the more than $1,700 or $1,800," said Robert Harner, secretary to the superintendent of buildings and grounds.
Student Prince to Play Before Capacity House
The demand for seats to "The Student Prince", which will be presented tonight at the Bowersock theater, has been unusually great and the operetta will probably be shown to a capacity according to the theater management.
Although "The Student Prince" is one of the more popular theatrical productions of the past two years, it has never been used that it has been shown in Lawrence.
Final plans for the semi-annual window unveiling and style show to be held Friday evening, March 11, will be made Monday evening at the monthly meeting of the Merchant's Association of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce.
Plans Made for Window Unveiling for Next Week
One of the outstanding features of "The Student Prince" is the chorus of 50 male voices from leading studios of New York.
Everything for the event is moving along in good shape and most of the merchants are displaying interest in the show.
Faculty and students at the University of Southern California have pronounced the honor system a failure. A substitute is being sought.
Language Is Bond of Universalism, Says Doctor Macy
Literary Critic Stresses
Cosmopolitan Nature
of New World
Literature
"The largest vehicle of internationalism is language." John McAuley, critic and historian of literature, stated in his lecture on "The Internationalism of Western Wednesdays afternoon in Fraser chapel before English majors and students.
"The plastic arts," Mr. Macy explained, "are in themselves a visual language, but not a concrete one Literature and language are the great bonds which will unite the world. Comparative study," Mr. Macy said, "is perfect in its way, but interunionism is deeper than the more comparison of the truth. A nation is the most important and nation in nation is needed. If unification comes it will be through a 'community of books'."
Mr. Mr. Knobble what he chose to term his "text" from the words of the monk St. Augustine's "City of God," and broadened it from a purely religious meaning to include world thought, which he explained embraces religion. "This world of thought," Mr. Knobble said, "also encompasses us who know so little so that we are able to rise above the common.
"City of God" Is Text
"Internationalism will never become so binding that all hostilities of nations will cease," Mr. Macy pointed out, "but it will do much to prevent and restrain violence and misunderstanding." Mr. Macy described the process of our nationalism through which we are led to learning with the Bible. "We are all," he declared, "more or less saturated with the Bible. We are Hebrews in spite of ourselves. The influence of the Bible has prevailed through the ages. But one strain of influence need not interfere with another." Mr. Macy made this point in his discussion of Greek culture and its influence, and carried the discussion on through the middle ages and the Renaissance.
University Is Amazing
"It is most amazing," Mr. Macy declared, "show the romances and philosophies of the many petty state of men who have become universal. These romances and philosophies became an international literature carried unconsciously by soldiers warring in foreign land, by traveling priests and wandering minstrels. The internationalism of these books itself a romance more remarkable than a title of chivalry."
Mr. Macy said in continuation, "English literature has an Italian heath not an English heath." France has not England and England return Euglena sent her mature turtles back to the continent. Thus through the ages the world has
"America is a transplanted Europee of many strains; we are cosmopolitan." Mr. Mary made clear, "and can have never reason to be called provincial, for we rub shoulders with all the world."
Washington, March 3—All hope of senate action on President Coolidge's request to approve the $10 million was abandoned today by Senator Walt Republican, Indiana, chairman of the Interstate Commerce Committee, to which the nominations were
"What we must have." Mr. Mac ended, "to secure that 'City of God' is truth in the world of books and literature; an international understanding in our exchange of ideas of beauty and truth."
"Consequently," Watson said. "President Coolidge should give recess appointment to the nominees, three of whom have been criticized by Senator Dill, Democrat, as hand-picked Hoover men."
Because of damage done to university property following pep sessions, students at the University of Indiana are to be fixed 20 cents apiece.

Removal of Kellogg by President Coolidge May Take Place Soor
Secretary of State Resent
Recurring Reports Saying
He Will Resien
(United Press)
Washington, March 3.—Mexico's reply to the United States note of Feb. 28 was received by the state department today. Department officials declined to comment on the context American note or on the Mexican reply.
Recuring reports in connection with this that the Secretary of State will resign are being resented by Kellogg and a number of his friends, and those who report are a part of an undercover command to force him out of office.
Kellogg is plainly angry whenever the subject is mentioned. He was particularly on the eve of his death from a severe injury he recuperated from his recent illness.
It is understood, however, that the correspondence does not apply directly to the disputed oil and land laws, and there is no evidence here that there will be an immediate break of diplomatic relations or the lifting of the American embargo on arms shipments.
Mary of Kellogg's friends, while presenting the alleged campaign against him, believe that as he is over 70 and in poor health, he should retire from public life. The secretly himself, over, is anxious to remain in office.
Out of the maze of reports and rumors three facts were apparent today. First, there is a growing movement in Republican circles, especially in New York, that Kellogg is the choice. They do not especially hold him as the party's China and Nicaragua, but believe that the methods could be improved.
What President Coolidge thinks is unknown. Some officials would not be surprised if the president changed secretaries while Kellogg still holds office, but this can only be conjectured.
Among those mentioned among the possible successors of Kellogg are Alanson Boughton, American antiques magnate; Hugh Montgomery, Mover of Morgan and Company;

Poor Starts Seem Spurs for Kansas
Poor Starts Seem
Spurs for Kansas
"Different story this year," said the Missouri Valley conference teams when Kansas lost two games.
"Kansas is decaying athletically," said various sages about the state when it appeared that the Jayhawk was a middle division team.
Yes, that is what they said last year when defeat came at the hands of Oklahoma and Washington, and the year before when Kansas Aggies handed the Jayhawk the little end of a big game.
It seems as if Doctor Allen has trained his teams to win no matter how discouraging the outlook. For here they are leading the Valley with no prospect of losing the lead. It seems as if he purposely used the first few games, and then speed to the head whenever he takes the hunch.
"Same old story," the Missouri Valley conference teams say.
"You can't beat K, U," say the various sages about the state now that victory is certain. Proving that everyone has guessed right at least once

Basketball Contest Influences Managers and Is Cause of Change
Annual Junior Prom to Be Informal Party Contrary to Custom
The sixth consecutive Missouri Valley basketball championship rests firmly on top of Mount Oread today by virtue of a splendid 36 to 29 victory scored over the traditional and time honored rival, the Missouri Tigers, last night. Back in 1922 Missouri and Kansas tied for the championship, each beating the other by 10 points and every year since, the Jayhawker has reigned unchallenged king of valley basketball. The game last night was the usual Kansas-Missouri contest; fiercely-fought, fast, and each point scored after making use of all the basketball skill possessed by each team.

The Prom will be an informal party this year, although in the past years it has been formal. According to the managers, it was thought best to have a basketball game. K.S. J, A.C. basketball game which is to be played on the same evening.
It is the belief of the managers that there will be a larger attendance if they had more staff, or a size of the managers to have a large attendance and it was felt that the men would feel freer to come and interact with their better time if the party was informal.
Decorations for the Prom will be elaborate and symbolic of spring. Molander has just returned from a trip to Kansas City where he made the final plans for the entertainment for the Prom. No details are being released, but an announcement except that it will be very novel. There will be favors of all kinds.

To attempt to adequately portray that contest is futile as no word can describe the spirit of determination
Al Petersen, all-alley center, scored 22 points last night and took the lead among valley scorers.
showed by both teams, the fast and elusive passing game played by Kansas, the almost superhuman exhibition of basket shooting shown in the video, the center, the dogged fight put up by the Tigers in a vain attempt to turn defeat into victory and the thrills that followed each other in rapid order. So rapid, in fact, that the spectators were not able to until one far ore scintillating occurred.
Petersen Scores 22 Points
For the first time this year, Kannan played before the home crowd with the potential ability which she really posed to. So say that the floor work of the Jayhawkers was brilliant in putting it mild; it was well-night perfect. And never will royal Kannan players forget the marvels our playing at 22 of Kannan 36 points. Shooting baskets from the center, tipping in shots from a scramble of players under the basket, tossing the ball over his shoulder as he went away from his basket, and making one-handed shots that brought the crowd to its feet when the man played one of the most remarkable games ever seen on Robinson gymnastium floor.
But it was not Peterzen alone who crushed the Tiger; seven other men formed the team which worked in clock-like precision to win the six-man defensive play. The offensive defensive play of "Zeke" Burton how little Bai Jeffrey fought the Tigers to a standstill, Schmidt and Gordon with their floor work. Hill managed critical moments when Missouri seemed destined to start a rally, and Maney who took Burton's place and more than cared for his position?
Kansas Leka Throughout
are we not must forget that
the crowd of our fans chose the
sides of Robinson gymnasium bulge
when it let out a cheer and there
were no moments in that breath-taking
contest in which it was silent.
It is no wonder people went away
from the context feeling like they had played in it. It was a game in which all of those 3,000 players played, the team playing with Kansas, but a few Missourians were to mourn the defeat.
At no time in the contest did Miss Soori lead, but with only eight men remaining to be played the Tigers maintained Schmidt perfectly called time.
