Midnight Oil Burning in Marvin Means Completion of'en logged Sketches Drawn by Architects
Most students at the University probably know very little of the study of architecture, and yet it has its little intimate traditions which are an inseparable part of its existence the same as any other department.
The department of architecture has been in existence about nine years. Sixty students and three instructors form the personnel. Most of the students take work in the School to supplement their study of design.
This institute is patterned after L'Ecole des Beaux Arts of Paris. When a program for a design, or a "project," as it is called by the profession, is given to an artist, he then makes his preliminary sketch in French at an art school. The artist spends hours to complete this sketch, and is forbidden to make any reference to drawings or books, or to consult another student. This is called "en loge." This term also harks back to France. But French artists their "sequences" from French artists were placed in stalls called "paintings" where they were forced to remain until they had entirely completed their sketches.
picked the artist is now given about six weeks to draw his design for the project. Six weeks is none too long for the work, and the closing date finds each artist bending every effort to finish his work in time. It is no uncommon sight to the lights on the third floor of Marvin hall burning fast in the night. This final sketch is known in the parlance as the "charette." Again the interpretation comes from the traditions of the old French school.

But that belongs to the past. As soon as the sketches here are finished they are sent by means of very efficient postal system, to the Beaux Arts in New York. Here they are judged by a committee of famous architects and returned to the University.
The University department of architecture is a member of the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture, which is composed of the thirteen or fourteen best schools in the United States.
Arts in Paris to have designs collected and brought to the school in an old earl-French, "charrette." The morning for the collection of these drawings by Ms. Winters will hand at work, hurriedly putting on the last touches.
Suddenly through the halls of their quarters would ring the cry, "Charate! Charate!" "the cart, the cart!" Into the street the young impatiens would rush, with their precious projects in hand. Often the art room was filled, but the second work would be forced to jog beside the cart, putting in the last strokes as he ran.
One finds hanging on the walls of the department of architecture a surprising number of projects with honors and awards, presented, the juniors are working on the entrance to a stadium, and the seniors are preparing sketches for a country home. The team is drawing an ornamental well head.
The work is divided into three classes: Analytique, or sophomore work; class B project, or junior A project. A project, which it senior work.

Corbin Hall Freshmen Kow-Tow to Discipline
Lo, the poor fresh of Corbin Hall! The book just past was Discipline Week at the dormitory, and dire were the penalties extracted from those who did not heed the admonitions of the upperclassmen.
Early in the week the Ten Commandments for freshman behavior for the week were read:
All freshmen must rise when upperclassmen enter the room, especially in the dining room.
Must address upperclassmen as Miss, with the surname.

Must seat upperclassmen at the table.

Must wear a green garmon on the left arm—or get nothing to eat.
Must watch bulletin board for
daily orders. (These included restrictions of the use of powder, rouge, and curl in hair; drinking water at meal-time with spoons; never turning their backs upon the Kansas colors; wearing gloves to dinner and not resting on hot plates; holding the mouth deeply to upperclassmen; and attending rallies.)
Must know the following by Saturday; three verses of "Crimson and Blue." "Stand Up and Cheer," "I'm a King," and "Kansas," and the Coronin Hall song.
Must hand a written signed reason each time she is late for a meal. Must stand back and let up帷嘛 for mail and to the dining room.
Must sing songs in dining room. These commandments were more or less observed. The day of rehearsed came at last. Dire penalties were extracted for non-obeyance. Those who turned their backs upon the Kansas colors were commanded to recite the alphabet backwards; those who had not sung in the dining room had to sing the words of America "Don't speak American." Those who were accused of having neglected their armbands had to give the Sinnese女语 "Owat Tagot! Samm!" (try it yourself). One fresh was charged with having been absurdly polite, so she was given

"The aim of the vespers is to give an outstanding musical program," said Dean D. M. Swarthout. "The
desire for such a program,” he continued, “has been expressed to me and the best attention has been given to幕们 to make them of real worth.”

especially its preparations clauses. Resumption of pre-diplomatic and economic relations with Russia is also demanded.
Advises Clerks to Leave (United Press)
London, Nov. 17.—The election manifesto of the party labor issued today demands that the British government immediately call an international conference, including Germany, to revise the Vernauer treaty,
Berlin, Nov. 17.—The British embassy today advised its women clerks to return to England to avoid possible hunger rites in Germany this winter. This action is considered as very significant.

to do their share and not holding themselves aloof. The "hand" proved more than willing to assist them or show them what things had to be done. The students had to shoe their own horses, butcher yearlings, and other side jobs in their village which had a string of five or six horses, for which he was held responsible and which had to be kept in good condition at all times.
Cowboys' Picturesque Dress Not for Ostentatious Display But Utility First and Last
Time was taken out on several occasions to enable the "seconds" for the men's team to give their players first aid and face-washings.
The men said that all of the cowboys' pictureque dress was utilitarian and not for show. Chaps are a piece of underwear, made of the underbraid and thick forestes of the mountain regions, which would tear any ordinary clothing to pieces. Of course, only the plain heavy dresses were used, and not the flashy, woolly, ones.
"Won't that Tiger Wail"
The big "gallon" hats serve their purpose well in the hot sun on the flats, and in the rain and hailstorms of the mountains. Boots and spurs are not for show but for comfort and use. Some of the cowboys with them wear cowboy boots that are able to play for any western novelist. One, a Mexican, named Malaguez Espinoza, must have been the original subject of the box-legged cowboy story, the students assert. He has spent some forty years in the middle of the world, juggling at hurts him to walk any great distances. He knows every trail and bypathe that region and is a skilled hunter as well.
The ladies' team was decidedly the better of the two agregations, and literally played the men off their feet. The plays followed in such quick succession that even the referee had trouble keeping his chair moved up close enough for him to follow the game.

The experiences and impressions of four University students who spent last summer on a 100,000 ranch in New Mexico, after some interesting contrasts and parallelisms to the observations of another student who spent the summer on a ranch in Wyoming.
Sue Moody, c'24, in the Sunday Kansas of Oct. 7, gave some interesting sidelights on ranch life in Wyoming. This article contains observations of Phil Phillipi, c'26; Darred Cook, c'28; and Mike L. K. Phillipi, c'27; who hired out as cowhands on the Hawkeye ranch in New Mexico last summer.
Delta Phi Sigma, Congregational sorority, entertained fifty of its members and guests with a chocolate at Henley House on Friday afternoon. The Delta Phi Delta Delta will not be held until the Thanksgiving vacation.

(George Wallace was smothered on the touchdown and was smothered with kisses from her sister players. Chestina failed to kick goal.)
The adobe corral at the Hawkeye is nearly 100 years old and was one of the places where the overland stages and pony expresses of the old Santa Fe trail changed horses. The ruins of the Maxwell Manor, a historic town points along the old trail, is three miles from the Hawkeye headquarters.
The four students had expected to find the cowboys rather reticent about mixing with the "strangers" but found that they were very congenial as soon as the newcomers had demonstrated that they were trumpeters.
The Hawkeye, or PH Barranch, is located forty miles south and west of Raton, N. M., far off the main line of the Santa Fe. The Hawkeye is located across, which is equal to more than one half the land area of Rhode Island.
