University Requires Adequate Auditorium Is Popular Opinion
Members of Faculty And Students see Need of New Buildings
Building
"An adequate auditorium is the greatest need of the University," said Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith in an interview this morning. "The gym has a very large wall with and with the rain beating on the tin roof, and the wind rattling the windows; it is difficult to hold conference rooms, and any kind of entertainment there."
Several other prominent members of the faculty and student body also expressed their opinion in regard to the necessity of having an auditor.
"The need was very obvites at onvocation Wednesday morning," aid Chet Shore, editor of the Sourail "A great many people were empelled to remain standing during he entire hour. This is only one of her many reasons." Heavey leaves adopted to the occeh and this in fact is *sufficient*.
"It is the most important thing that we need on the Hill," said Dr. E.H. S. Bailley of the department of chemistry. "We have the largest institution in the state, and yet fortune has placed us in a position for holding convolutions. The Gymnasium was designed for entirely different purposes, and the seats are therefore very uncomfortable. An auditorium would be much the university it would be much to conduct entertainments than it is now in the Gym."
"At convocations at the beginning of the year one-third of the students who attended had to stand up," said Burnett. Treat "was a demonstration." But now many of them realize the discomfort and therefore they do not attend."

*2. The committee, before grazing any loan, must be thoroughly convinced of the student's real need for assistance; and it will, moreover, be considered a ground for refusal of the application if it is found that it is made a matter of convenience to avoid the necessity of earnest effort in part of the applicant to obtain the necessary money from relatives and friends.
3. In making the loans, the committee will take into account the moral character of the applicant, his habits of temperance and industry, and his assiduity and success in his studies.

He also played on his own called 'Poem'. He is a pianist with a solid technic and a very sound musical training."

A final sales campaign for the 1923 Jayhawk will be put on Monday and Tuesday, January 29 and 30, during second semester enrollment, according to William Brehm, business manager.
"our orders for Jayhawkers must be in to the .prinners February," said Mr. Brehm, "and it is absolutely necessary for everyone who wants a extra one or two extra ones in hopes that others will that date. The books are too expensive for us to take a risk by ordering extra ones in hopes that others will buy them. This has been done at the part, but has proved wise."

Payments may be made at any time at the Lagerhawk office, and a table will be placed in the reception area for enrollment for taking new orders.

Institute Offers Foreign Trips For Scholastic Group
Three Tours in Europe Arc Offered to Students of American Colleges
The Institute of International Education has given its official sponsorship to a group of three tours to European countries next summer, organized for the benefit of students and instructors in American colleges and universities, announced yesterday by Dr. Stephen P. Durgan, director of the Institute.
"These students' tours," said Dr. Duggan, "have been organized to meet the need for travel as a bonding and vitalizing element in the education of our young men and women, and as a means of establishing a relationship between the youth of America and that of other countries."
Kansas Represented
Two students of the University of Kansas, Walter L. Morrison and Harold Herrington, last summer went on a study abroad program in Europe to student relief organization.
"We're interested in seeing as many students as possible arrange for these trips," said Mr. Morrison, "[G]et they are sure to give one a much broader conception of European affairs. The understanding and sympathy between neighbouring contents which such visits create is sure to do much toward prevention. Have you seen any community and hatred toward a country after he has come in contact with its people in this way. I feel that my last summer's experience is worth any four years of university work."
The student's who went last year say that traveling in organized groups has many advantages over touring by personal arrangement; that organized tours prove less expensive and more profitable, since foreign countries vie with each other in making out programs for such groups every effort is made to have them see the country as it is.
Hospitality Abundant
They tienen the best of hospitality; European students are eager to meet them, and about two hundred have sent back their names and addresses, desiring to correspond with American students.
Conrad Hoffman, former Y. M. C. A. secretary of the University of Kansas, who is now head of the Y M. C. A. European Relief movement, was in charge of the party part of the time last year. Several years later he visited a similar tour of America, and will be in Kansas sometime in February.
Dr. Duggan says that this organization aims to make certain several conditions; "The support of foreign governments and universities; the assistance with a broad international outlook in this country; careful selection of the personnel of the students' groups, since their bers were born in these countries as assistants of America; the provision of instructors capable of interpreting the counties visited in a broad and sympathetic fashion."
The Students' Tours had their inception in 1921, when a group of 165 college students, from forty-four different schools, went to Haiti for training in the sciences of learning in the ceremonies commemorating the six-hundredth anniversary of the death of Dante. Sixty-six college and university centers were involved in tours. Tours of 1922.
First Tour in 1921
The tours for this year include a Students' Tour to France, Students' Tour to Italy, and an Art Students' Tour. The details of administration will be handled by Irwin Smith. 30 East 42nd Street, New York City

Science Academy To Meet
Kansas Members Will Celebrate Fifty-Fifth Meeting
The Kansas Academy of Science will hold its fifty-fifth annual meeting at the University sometime during February. The Academy met at the University of Kansas fifty years ago, in 1873. At that meeting a paper was presented by one of the members of the Academy of Science giving the traces of the mound-builders in Kansas. Remains of what evidently were potteries are to be found Rice County near the Kansas River at Cedar Creek and in Ripley County in the extreme northeast corner. There are indications at these locations that a village may have been situated at these spots.
The most important village of this type is in Cloud County not far from Asher Creek southwest of the Solomon River. Materials and debris from old workshops indicate that a pottery covering alms was a half area occupied by monks. Fragments of objects appeared to be ovens in which pottery was baked and quantities of pottery clay give basis for this supposition.
The few traces of the race of mound-builders show that the race which preceded the American Indian never made permanent towns in Kansas or Oklahoma, where only remote settlements on the outskirts of their civilization. More densely settled portions of the Mississippi and Ohio valleys seem to have been more economic than hikers at the time like number and size of the mounds found there.

Personal Director Of N.Y.Exchange Speaks Here Today
Must Make Citizenship as Worth-while as a Living, Says Beck
"In addition to making our living we must make citizenship." Such was the essence of an address given by Cameron Beck, personnel director of the New York Stock Exchange in 1985. He began building this afternoon at 3:20 o'clock.
Make Business a Profession
"Never has there been a midnight in the history of mankind as there is now. Never such a universal perplexity. Students of the University have a tremendous responsibility in helping to shed light this midnight affairs and in the building of a civilization with character."
Make Business a Profession
Mr. Beck went on to say that instructors should develop a sense of the building of good will. "I like to think that the it lel Yidishd who crosses my doorstep with the messages two or three times a day is as important an element of character as is the great financier of the 'Street' who deals in millions and billions of dollars."
"There are four distinct responsibilities which should become a part of our business and financial code of conduct. First, we must be able to the employer. I am one of those old fashioned men who believe that the honest employer, the man who assumes the risk and is responsible for the business, has given his due amount of respect.
Must Consider Employees
"The second responsibility, which we should develop is a responsibility to the individual employee on the part of the employer. He should regard the most insignificant of his employees as potential leaders of our civilization and greet him with as much deference as his first assis-
"A third responsibility should be that of a definite civic pride on the part of the employer. He must realize that he is impressing his character or that he is not in compliance. Guided by this ethical viewpoint, he should act accordingly.
Jobseeker Is a Responsibility
"The four responsibility should be that of the employer to the inexperienced and faltering young jobseeker. He is too often regarded as a nuisance to be eliminated as soon as possible," he says. "Sorry, we haven't anything just now. He, too, is an element in the building of our business character, and may some day help to mold the business character of the future."
"In the financial district we are meeting these difficulties. Recently eighteen presidents of the leading banks of New York City met with the president of the Bank of the United States, not current financial affairs, but the conservation of the life of the youth of the financial district. They secured the appointment of a special Y. M. C. A. secretary for the finance department, who was backed in his efforts by the personnel of the New York Stock Exchange."
rutilzer Journalists are Publishing First Annual
As a part of the celebration of the tenth anniversary of the establishment of the Pulitzer School of Journalism at Columbia University, the students will publish for the first time a Pulitzer annual. This publication will contain accounts of the life of the school for the last ten years.
Dr. John W. Cunillo, head of the school, believes the work of putting out the publication will afford the students valuable practical experience. The class will be organized on the lines of a regular magazine staff and the entire group will co-operate in the work.
