All Kinds of Calls
At the appointed time, the men were summoned from the crowd to the platform above "Mac's" land, where Cheerleader Rice presided. In the course of the contest, high pitched cals, grunts, low guttural utterances and simulations of the language dear to workers flotted out over Mt. Oread.
One Contestant dedicated his calls to the "razor-back hawk" from Arkansaw" who responded better to volume and rapidity than to technique. Some calls were said to have originated under the Inter-City viaduct at Kansas City, and the origin of others was unknown.
"Maca" band was at the rally, and so was the R, O, T, C, burglar and drum corps, and the ku Kw's and Van the Man, who was the principal speaker.

Divorce Code Is Needed
Representative Says Congress Lacks Proper Power
Washington Post, 16; To remove existing confusion, Representative McLeod, from Michigan, will seek enactment of a constitutional amendment empowering congress to establish laws for divorce and divorces laws, be announced today.
In a statement to the United Press while at his home in Detroit, McLeod said he would ask the judiciary committee to take favorable action on his resolution giving congress authority to put a marriage and divorce set.
"It is not a compliance to our system of statute law," McLewd said, "that the requirement of a marriage contract should vary so greatly from state to state, especially when interstate is no common among our people.
"It has the effect of taking away the powers of courts of law or equity as to some citizens and not as to others. In other words, by a simple act of will, we may assert the degrees of the courts of their native states or any other state."
McLeod said he was prompted to seek a uniform law because of a situation which exists in his home state. A divorced person there, he pointed out, had been jailed again within a year but can cross into Ohio and marry immediately.

There will also be an extensive co-credit of municipal supplies and equipment in the equipment, which will enable city officials whose cities are interested in the replacement of old or the installation of new equipment, to become acquainted with the products offered to the various municipal supply firms.

Constructive journalism as it pertains to the treatment of everyday problems should be concerned not so much in the method and technique, but in the mode of procedure. In most of the antisocial news station the fault is a very great extent in the praseology.
"Most journalistic writers have not yet learned how to write a crime story in constructive terms. Constructive writing is difficult to do and uninteresting.
