The hill will be marked off into spaces reserved for each class of alumni, and after the game the various "old grade" will meet their University friends in their respective spaces.
Among the other features of the celebration will be the open house at Watkins hall from 2 to 5:30. Friday afternoon, and the mammoth "Powwow" at the stadium at 7:30 Friday evening. The event will be held by the largest pop gathering in the history of University of Kansas athletics.

John Dyer Gives Speech Before Y. W. C. A. Vesper
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20.1926
John Dyer, assistant to the chancellor, in his talk on "Chameleons" at the W. Y. C. A. vengers yesterday, gave a very interesting and vivid account of the challenges ideals and standards have changed in the last hundred years.

Fraternity Scholastic Standings Are Delayed as Lists Not Checked
The worship service was in charge of Madge Wardell, president of W. S. G. A. The organ accompaniment was followed by choral service by Helen Marcelli.
Omission of Name May Lowe Standard; Announcement to Be Made Soon
The comparative scholastic stands of fraternities and sororities for last year is being delayed somewhat because of the failure of fraternity officers to come to the registrar's office or to attend a meeting to register to George O. Foster, register.
Before the standings are announced it is necessary for either the president or the secretary of each organization to check over the list with a clerk at the registrar's office, and to make a note before a notary that it is correct.
In spite of repeated notices to the various fraternities, all the lists have been ignored. The fact is that it was often necessary to make corrections on the lists, and that the omission of the name of one good student would lower the standing of a fraternity.
In the scholastic standings as determined last year the Alpha Xi Delta security and the Phi Delta Theta fraternity led the other social organization.

Urgent Spirit of Toleration
Mr. Richardus urged a spirit of tolerance and co-operation among nations as the best preventative of war.
"The League of Nations is not a superstate" he explained, "but instead, a cooperative project of all nations of the world. The vast organization is attempting not only the promotion of peaceful relations between nations but the alleviation of suffering and provision of the needs of the world."
"If there is another war, and I hope there will never be, we will invisibly be drawn in because of the close commercial relations with other countries, not because we are in or out of the League of Nations."

English Lecturer Will Deliver Talk on 'The Miracle'
Miss Powell Will Prepare Public for Production of World Famed Spectacle
Miss Victoria Powell, noted Eagle british読本 and lecturer on Shakespeare and his plays, will lecture here next Thursday at 4:20 in the auditorium of central Administration on "The Miracle."
Miss Powell has been associated with "The Miracle" since its production in London and has spoken to thousands of men and women in America in connection with the various productions in this country.
Play Received Enthusiastically
Eathasian developed at the time of the London presentation prompted Miss Powell to come to America in the wake of the world's master stage craftman, Prof. Max dekinhard, when he brought "The Miracle" to this country, and to choose the spectacle as the subject of her features. After the historic success of "The Miracle" in New York, Chicago, St. Louis and New York City, the International Opera Company induced Miss Powell to step, and to render her two series of lectures, features from the operatic stage.
After the opera season Miss Powell was on the verge of returning to London when Mr. Geal, producer of *The Rocky Horror Picture Show*, required for the present season.
Unfolds Panorama of Play
Miss Pewell is said to be a deep student of the theater, a woman of power, with an eye for fine dictation and sollenal address, and her lecture on "The Miracle" brings before the audience a vivid panorama.
She gives a very comprehensive picture of the beauties and the tremendous amount of equipment required to stage it. Miss Powell also gives intimate sketches of the prominent artists who have created the play and the set.
The theater in America has never even seen anything so truly great and artful as "The Miracle," which Morris Got, the most intrigued of American producers, brought to this country. Nor has any cit yeeen it quite so grandly produced as it will be in Kansas City.
Reconstruct Convention Hall The interior of Convention hall will be reconstituted almost entirely for the super-spectacle, which has been acclaimed as a veritable convention of all the arts.
"The Miracle" is to be staged in Kansas City for three weeks, beginning Nov. 22, and concluding Dec. 14. It is to prepare the public for the movie's screening on Tuesday morning, a much public spectacle that Miss Powell is giving these lectures.
Studios Charge for Time
Broken Gloss Appointments Must Be Paid For
Fraternities who make appointments for Jayhawk glosses at the local studies and do not appear until later will be charged with the time lost by the photographer and the cost of the preparation.
"The students don't seem to realize that the success of their year book depends greatly on the quality of the photography. Photographs taken in the dark winter days cannot be as beautiful as they are in the new evening bright days," he said.
"less than half of the fraternities have made appointments for their glasses," said Clifford Anderson, ode to the spirit. "If you have your group picture taken now or not, please make your appointments now for some time in the future so that there will be no last minute." The deadline "continued Anderson."
The deadline will be November 10.
The deadline for senior and junior
glosses will be January 10.

Telephones Are Prized
as Treasures in Japan

Of these the department of public services supply only 10,000 this year, those being those who have paid from Yen 500 to Yen 750 for urgent installments. According to figures published by the government it cost Yen 1325 (ubent 86540) to install such an explanation of this highly exaggerated figure is given. In the United States there is one telephone for every 7 persons. In Japan the number works out to one phone per person.
Ancient Indian Dishes Brought to Museum in Washington, D.C.
Relies to Be Washed for First Time After Centuries of Neglect
Washington, Oct. 20 — Dishes that have not been woned for many hundreds of years are about to be scubbed and put on exhibition at the U. S. National Museum here. They are the collection of earthen pots that were excavated by students back from Elburn Paulo, an ancient Indian metropolis near Flagstaff, Arizona, by Dr. J. Washoe Fewer, curator of American ethnology at the Smithsonian Institute. The bowls, vases, note and jars were used by the ancestors of the modern race of Hop Indians, it is believed, and are much older than those found farther south in Mexico and Central America. Many of them are bished and more of them have flat sides. These are perfected Indian pottery pushed up to tourists in the southwestern United States today. Most of the bowls, jars, and jugs are made of red clay labeled over the fire so that the inside is smoked black and the outside clouded into irregular black and red shapes. These jugs are intended to resemble the crete-pdynamic pottery of Egypt before the days of recorded history, and apparently a named method was used in making wash.
A second type of pottery depends for its decorative effect on matches made by the thumbprint or by a finger. These are applied to outer surfaces. These vessels appear to have been made by laying string of clay around and around and matching them into place until the shape deformed, before being corrugated effect to the objects.
Some of the objects found were recovered from within the rainy of the former two-story Indian apartment house, but many more beautiful and interesting ones came from the grave yard at the back. According to the aboriginal Indian custom, effigies and vessels probably once filled with lead, gold, or other metals, were planted with the dead. The corpses were plastered down with adobe and the provisions of the discussed placed around on too.

Council Postpones Student Election in Special Session
selection of Class Officers
May Not Take Place
Until Second
Semester
The decision of the council is the culmination of a series of mitabs beginning last Thursday when the election committee was forced to close the polls because of incomplete lists of qualified voters. Some 800 inmates had been omitted in the rush of preparing the lists for vote on election day.
Indefinite postponement of the *fall* election is the decision of the Men's Student Council reached last night in a two-hour special session at which leaders of the two parties appeared and argued about the election tomorrow.
Sunday at the University convention, Chancellor E. H. Lindley secretly criticized the interference of political campaigning with the K. U. Angie football game at Manhattan Saturday. It was the opinion of the chancellor and a large number of students who opposed the deal, the conio with a divided interest.
Football Men Withdraw
Monday eight all the candidates who were on the football squad withdrew their candidatures at the request of Couch C. Carpano. Demoralization of the curry tickets was the result, because both candidates for senior president, both candidates for senior treasurer, and one candidate each for home secretary, were football one. One of the candidates for junior vice-president also followed their example and declined to run.
Following this action, one party withdrew its entire ticket until after the football game and requested the opposing party to do the same, on the grounds that an election this Thursday might reduce the chances for Kansas to defend Nebraska in the Hospice grand prix Saturday.
A meeting of the Men's Student Council was then called for last night, and after considerable bleckering, the entrance decision was reached
Election May Be Dropped
No attempt to revive the election and accompanying campaigns will be made until after the close of the football season, and it is possible that the election will be dropped entirely, and the class officers chosen at the time of the election of council members and cheerleader in the spring. Necessary officers, the dancer managers, could be selected by the councils in consultation with the excessive expenses and bitter feeling resulting from the party campaigns be obliterated, a member of the council pointed out.
Abligation of the fall election, by combining it with the regular spring election, was urged by several members of the council, who objected to the large expenses incurred in holding both. Littering up the campus with cards and handbills, and the creation of party halls, were the best interests of the University. It is almost impossible to have a unified school spirit for the football season when party utilities interfere, they declared.
The difficulty of keeping the political parties from naming athletes for their major candidates as long as class elections are primarily popularity contests, was considered also by some of the council representatives. In general, the same team to oppose each other could not help but cause a divided interest, not only among the players but also among the roots.
Various Plans Suggested
Various vase suggestions.
The various difficulties were posing of the election difficulty were suggested before the decision was reached. One council member proposal that each party appoint one man to the dance committees and the class officers could be elected in the spring or not at all.
Characterization of the charge of divided interest as an alibi for the trum's defeat was made by several party leaders and some council members who declared that fall elections are too inexperienced to make any difference to either the candidates or the voters.
Adding to the present difficulty of holding the election some time this fall, is a constitutional rule of the Men's Student Council which demands that the election be held on or before the second Thursday of October.
