THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
A
University Report Shows Enrollment Gain During 1922
Growth of University Seen in Larger Attendance of Students From Other States
The twenty-ninth biennial report of the University of Kansas, compiled from the records of the last two years of its existence, includes papers under the Chancellor's supervision, contains a list of accomplishments of the school, purposes of the University, recent student efforts at the university, expenditures, and many other findings.
Besides the Chancellor's report, several other interesting facts of the University were compiled. The total enrollment of students in the University for 1920-1921 was 4,226, and for 1921-1922 it increased to 4,573, and the increase in 1921 and 1922 being largely due to the increased attendance in the Summer Session of 1921.
That the University has grown to be state-wide and even world-wide is evidenced by the geographical distribution of students. In 1920-1921, from 103 Kansas counties and from 32 other states and foreign countries and in 1921-22, from 103 Kansas counties and 34 other states and foreign countries. In the latter year, there were no grants and the year before 518.
Students From Thirty-two States
Problems of health, hygiene and housing have consumed much of the attention of the office of the Dean of Women. The Dean under the leadership of the Dean of Women, managed four co-operative houses for women, in which through self-help, the cost per student was lower as twenty-five dollars a month.
Following the examples of Leland Stanford, Junior University, and Oberlin College, the Committee on Vocations has collected material for the university to support instruction for which the University prepares men and women.
Engineer Enrollment Increases
The development of the School of Engineering during the past two years has been characterized by the improvement of working conditions and the setting of instruction on a number of subjects, the number of students. The enrollment in the upper classes is increasing rapidly. In all of the branches of study, excepting Chemical Engineering, the English language has been made optional.
During the past seven years the School of Fine Arts has had a marked increase in student enrollment, number of graduates, teaching force, and the number of positions secured by its students. While the enrolment in the School increased 155 per cent in 2009-10, it decreased 49 per cent, per student, decreased 49 per cent.
Requirements for admission to the School of Law include two years of academic study or its equivalent, and a minimum of two years to place the school above the minimum now required by the rules of the Association of American Law Schools and within the highest requirement contemplated by that organization.
Heavy Books Make Sylph-Like Figures

when making out your schedule for the new semester, he sure to enroll in classes requiring heavy books like "The Science of Music" or like slimness of the Laws? Do not fail to have an 8:30 class at West Atew every morning, especially if you live south of Indiana and have an alarm clock that changes to lose time during the night.
The second class of the morning should, if possible, be on the third floor of Fraser, at least on the second. Thence back to West Ad, or better still, Marvin Hall. For the 11:30 class, one at Blake or the School of Religion is highly recommended.

Youth Must Save Spoken Drama From Extinction By The Screen Says Actress In "The Circle'
"Motion pictures and vaudeville, as they are now developing and becoming more popularized over the country, may entirely exterminate the people's desire for the living, spoken drama, unless the younger generation is privileged to develop its ideas and talents along true, dramatic lines and in an artistic fashion," declared Mrs. Amelia Bingham, who played the role of Lady Catherine Chambery-Cheney in a film interviewed by a Kansan reporter.
"The responsibility of keeping the drama alive," said Mrs. Bingham, lies with the tutors and supervisors of her students in all of their varieties. It is they who have the opportunities and power to seek out those of the younger set who show promising abilities that may, by care and art of real dramatic presentation."
When told that the University of Kansas maintains a department of dramatic art in which an attempt is made to teach the rudiments of drama, students learn the score of students who are enrolled, Mrs. Bingham said: "Such an undertaking by the state is very fine and noble. There is no doubt that the role of these students will be studied in the department will be greatly benefited by it. Few, prob-

only, will receive material benefit, but certainly they are doing a great thing for themselves ethically.
"There are just two rules," continued Mrs. Bingham, "which students of the drama should adhere to and religiously follow. They are: first, know Shakespeare, the greatest of all dramatists, and read Dickens, who is the unequaled master of character drawing; second, never work faithfully and never lose an opportunity for self-expression."
Mrs. Bingham received her early education in Ohio and for a short time attended Ohio Wesleyan College at Delaware, where she was married "before seventeen years old" to Lloyd a dramatic player of New York City.
Asked if drama players are the same in their thoughts and deeds as people in other professions, Mrs. Bingham said. "I think we are not. Actors and devotees of the drama are more like grown-up children; very temperamental and fond of imitation, or make-believe; but sincere about it. "Actors are taught to need a just cause. The service of organized actors during the world war is proof of my statement. Of course, though, the drama has its 'four hundred' the same as other walks of life."

Speed King Can't Get Ahead of Goddesses
Because the Modart has done what she wants it to. It supports her and rests her, but it doesn't fail in its duty to her figure.
If she has gone without a corset, is then fitted in a Modart, we know she is another Modart customer. And why?

Temple and her Summer Temple.
Goddesses are too delicate to stand the odor of gasoline, so the ancients had to tax their brains for a suitable remedy. As many moderns are doing now.
The Temples were directly in line with each other, and about a mile apart. So a very convenient self-starter was arranged by winding a rope "the wrong way" around a roller coaster. When the ride came to a set looselock, that Alexandrian auto-mobile shot down Main with its fair and atony occupant at a rate speedy
