THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN VOLUME XX. UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, JVEDNESDAY, JANUARY 17, 1923 NUMBER 80 Jayhawk Kinks Tiger's TailIn Last Determined Rally In Final Three Minute Kansas Overcomes Old Enemy, Cinching Score, 21-19 (By Special Correspondent) Columbia, Mo., Jan. 16—Kansas 21; Missouri, 19. With a hare three minutes to play and the score tied, the Sunflower winters made a determined rally and nosed out the Missouri Tiger here in the hardest-fought game in the Mets. Valley conference so far this season. At no time during the savage forty minutes of play did either team seriously threaten its opponent, although in the first part of the second period the locals threw a scare into the Jayhawkers when Browning, Wheat, and Bunker in a spurt of garrering ran up a total of sixteen points. The Kansans were garnering only 14 points as the visitors retaliated, repeatedly tossing the sphere for field counter until the score was tied again. Score Tied at Half The half ended after twenty minutes of spectacular and extremely hard playing on the part of both teams, the score being 6 to 6. Both fives played defensive ball throughout the entire game. Kansas long shots from the field, necessitated by the air-tight guarding of the Missourians, fell short of the basket for several minutes, but finally began to run up the Jayhawkers' side of the score sheet. Try to Run Up Lead The first period was marked by the guarding of both teams, as the tied score will testify. But the second half found five bites playing a looser defense and endowing to run up a lead. The opponent rolled masters and tries at the basket. Browning and Bunker of Missouri and Endacott and Black of the Kansas quintet are the outstanding stars of the game. Of the eleven players who were on the floor at one time or another, Endacott, the flashy Kansas guard, an all-Vaillay man of first season, was easily the pick. Time after time he broke up the short-s枪 to get a headshot of his team as his team so well that the Tigers were forced to shoot from the center of the court. Browning Plays Good Game Browning, the Valley's high point man, played a good game in the forward berth and taxed the genius of the Kansas guards to prevent him from getting under the basket. Bowman was effectively covered up by Missouri guardmen, but the Kansas guards were able to go away several times in succession for shots at the hoop. Browning and Ackerman tied for scoring honors. (Continued on page 4) Endacott's final field counter and Ackerman's liberty toss in the last three minutes of play won the game for the Kansans, Browning following by a fulle free-throw that ended the game.

There is a tear on the east side of the hill. They can stay out as late as they want to, shoot at much pool or go to as many Varsity dances as their constitution will stand, and yet the villain is still with Except for the very few noophies on the hill, most of us have forgotten our childhood fear of ghosts and monsters, so we go so far as to say we are afraid of nothing, yeen, even not of final quizzes, but there is one thing in this particular section of the town which sends a cold shiver down every person's throat. The sun is tardy in the mornings. Very seldom does he peek up over the eastern hills until it is almost time for the alarm clock to ring. Ye barring son or alarm clocks something more conducive than anything else could be, is the sound of an old wagon going down the alley and a stentorian-vicedoem crying as though he were in agony: "Ice." Band Will Give Difficult Concert in Fraser Tonight "A program of classical numbers, more difficult than ever before attempted," were the words of J. C. McCanles, director of the University Band, this morning, in referring to the concert to be given at Frazer Music Hall, where men have been working hard, and some intensive practice has placed the band, I believe, in a position to give one of the best concerts of the year." The band will consist of forty-five pieces. Besides their regular program, Prof. Waldear Geltch, professor of violin, will give a violin solo. Student activity tickets will admit to the concert. Rising Wins Contest Of Four Classes In Oral Interpretation Department of Public Speaking Offers $5 Gold Piece as * Prize For Victor Frank Rising, c24, won first place in the annual contest of the oral interpretation classes Tuesday evening. Stanley Pennell, c25, was second, and Madeline Donneyer, c25, third. There were eight contestants, two chosen from each of the four students to vote on the members of the classes. The prize for first place is a five dollar gold piece offered by the department of public speaking. The 140 members of the oral interception classes acted as judges and analyzed the eight contestants according to a individual opinion. The officials dided the points and the contestant aving the lowest to al was judiced by P rising. Rising had a total of 27 points, Hull had 27, and Donewell 243. Rising gave Kipning's reading "Tomilionen," Pennell read "Come yojason Miller, and Miss Doneyyer gave "Git All You Kit." The Doneyyer gave "Grit All You Kit," Snyder, Della Snyder, Mary Farmer, Sue Dwell, and Louise Cowley. The oral interpretation contests are of four years standing. Winners in previous years were Hartzay Ray, who has been an instructor in the order named. It is planned to continue the contests each year. The various classes have elimination courses of their own, each class chooses representatives who meet in the final. This year Mr. Rising represented the 10:30 class, Mr. Pennell the 11:30 class, and Miss Donemeyer the 8:30 class. There are four classes. A.B. Requirements Raised Person Disqualified on More Than 25 percent D's No student will be granted a degree from the college who has received D's in more than twenty-five per cent of his work. This recommendation, contained in a report of the college committee for the improvement of undergraduate scholarship, was approved by the faculty of arts and sciences at the faculty meeting yesterday afternoon. In addition it was approved that all D's must be balanced by A's and P's and any student having more than twenty-five per cent of D's at any time cannot re-enroll in the courses in which the D's were made. This ruling will probably go into effect beginning next semester. The faculty postponed consideration of the remainder of the committee's report until the next session will be taken up as special business. The committee upon undergraduate advanced standing made a report upon the results of the rule requiring passing grades in at least six per year. Of the 2706 students in the college, 129 were automatically suspended by this rule. Only seven petitioned for reelection. The fall of which two were accepted. No W. S. G. A. Teas During Exams W. S. G. A. teas which have been given Wednesday afternoons throughout the semester will be discontinued until after the examinations. The next tea will be held Wednesday, February 7 at Henley House. A plan for the day will consist of one month instead of every week Elva McMullen has charg off the W. S. G. A. teas. College Enrollment January 29 And 30 Announced Today Time·Schedule Made Out According to Initial Letter of Last Name Enrollment for students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will be Monday and Tuesday, January 29 and 30. Using the same system used in the fall the students will enroll at the time indicated, according to the initial letter of their last names. 8:30-10:00 A, C 0:20-10:00 B, V 1:30-3:00 O, T. G, W, Y 5:00-5:00 Hr Monday Tuesday 8:30-10:00 E, F, M 10:30-12:00 D, N, U, R 1:30-3:00 S, Z, Q, P 3:00-5:00 L, K, J Students should enroll at the scheduled hour. In case they do not, enrollment will not be permitted on ii Saturday morning when a late enrolment fee of one dollar will be charged; payment may be made at this time also. Fee for Late Enrollment Enrollment will take place on the second floor of Robinson Gymnasium. Freshmen will enter by the west door and other students, seniors, juniors, sophomores and specials, will enter through the east door. Transcripts Given by Names Application for transcripts will be made according to names, not classification. Upon receipt of their transcript, a written proof will proceed to their enrollment tables. The above schedules for enrollment in the college was arranged by Orpha Harding of the W. S. G. A., and Stanley Harding of the E. L. A., the direction of Dean J. G. Brantt. Fraternities May Pay Tax Passage of Morgan Bill Would Repeal Exemption A bill to tax property owned by fraternities and sororites is being proposed by W. H. Morgan of Douglas County, among the many other bills being brought to the present session of the Kansas legislature. The authority of fraternities and sororites in Kansas is valued at a million dollars. The present statute, which exempts fraternity and sorority houses from taxation, would be repealed by the passage of the Morgan bill. This bill would particularly hit Douglas County as the University of Kansas and Baker University are located in the county. Washburn Collegiate President Woman is urging fraternities and sororites to build on the campus as college land is non-taxable. A few of Washburn's fraternities have already built their houses on the campus. They can prolong long time jobs by the college. Freshmen and sophomores in the College will be required to take at least five credit hours of their work in afternoon classes next semester. Although this rule has been applied to freshmen before, this is the first time sophomores have been required to carry work in afternoon classes. Except where they are to be made only for those students who must work in the afternoon. About twenty fraternities and sororities of the University of Kansas own their own houses. The change is necessitated by the shortage of recitation rooms in the morning. This shortage will be relieved next fall when the administrative offices of the University are moved to the new Administration building, thus leaving all of Fraser Hall available for classrooms. Sophomores Must Have Afternoon Classes Al K. U. Graduate Talks to Chemists Afternoon Classes Also K. U. Graduate Talks to Chemists William J. Reese, chief chemist for Poe Bros. Mfg. Co., of Kansas City, KS. Michael R. Kansas City section of the American Chemical Society this afternoon on "The Interpretation of the Analysis of Soap Materials." The Chemical Club joined the Kansas City section the meeting. Mr. Reese received briefings of Bachelor of Science degree in 1900. News Tabloids According to a recent dispatch, Italy has offered to mediate between France and Germany on the reparations question. Italy's proposals embrace economic control of the Ruhr region, which is subject to alliance with Germany, and says that such an alliance would not assume an anti-British character. The third birthday of prohibition was celebrated, yesterday, in Washington, with quarrels in the House over the success of the measure. Riotous mobs have dispersed at Harrison, Ark., according to a late dispatch, after several days of mobs rule, and troops will not be need to control the situation. Most of the strikers have been banished from the city, since the burning of several railway bridges by the striking employees of the Missouri and North Arkansas Railroad. R. O. T. C. Radio Set Not Able To Pick Up Columbia Last Night Sweeney Station in Kansas City Monopolized the Sound Waves Last Night The Kansas-Missouri basketball game played at Columbia last night was not received play by play over the R. O, T. C radio receiving set in Robinson Gymnasium as was announced. The operator could pick up nothing sent from the R. O, T. C broadcasting station at Columbia. The Sweeney Auto School seemed to have control of the sound waves last night, as the only distinct sounds that could be received were from the stationation. They had the back time stories followed by a musical program. Many students and townpeople in interested to know of the progress of the game gathered in Robinson Gymnasium and waited intimately for the first report while the operator worked earnestly to tune his apparatus to pick up the Columbia station. He pulled it out, poked it, and Kansas City, at times he could get a faint sound from Columbia but with no results. The operator of the receiving set said that the reason Columbia could not be heard was because their broadcast apparatus was very small in comparison with the Swenee apparatus, and since Columbia is farther away, the Swenee station could not be eliminated. The department of military science has sufficient apportus to receive a program at almost any time of day from some part of the country. A fire brigade with special equipment occasion last night. The horn was placed upstairs at the west end of the gymnasium and connected with the amplifier in the military science room. This would have been sufficient to give plain port of the game, if other such courses have been eliminated and the broadcast from Columbia picked up. Former Students Engaged Wedding Soon to be Held at Washington Representative and Mrs. James G. Strong, of Blue Rapids, Kans., have announced at Washington, the engagement of their daughter, Irma Elizabeth, to Paul E. Haworth, of Kansas City, son of (daughter) Dana Erickson, former head of the department of geology at the University of Kansas. Miss Strong a member of the Chi Omega sorority and Mr. Haworth was a member of Sigma Chi. Both were students at affairs while they were in school help. The wedding will be held February 12 at the Congressional Club at Washington. The couple will return on April 5. The location is in oil business in Kansas City. Mr. Haworth served in the world war, joining the Australian troops and later transferring to the ordinance department. At Christmas, 1918, he was granted a furlough from the University of his parents. Miss Strong was attending the University at that time. Following the Christmas furlough Haworth returned to his regiment and his release came in 1919. Then he returned to Lawrence where he resumed his studies on the School of Law last spring.

Senior Meeting Soon The first senior meeting will be held the first week after the opening of the second semester, Joe Bloomer said this morning. He asks that each senior check up on his credits, etc to be on his standing, as soon as possible. Will it be only a matter of a few months until masculine styles on the campus will demand spit curls, jabots, and wigs with cuttle little ruffles on them? If the budding flare for marcelos among the men is not killed in its incipient stages it may lead to this effeminate result. Three of the pioneers in the movement which has for its slogan, "Marcel rules the waves" are very reluctant to discuss their crowning glory under the banner of the light," but they predict an outbreak of marvels among the men. Knights of Marcel Organize Cult Here These three seekers after aesthetic beauty stroll over the campus and try to appear serenely unconscious of their newly acquired waves, while the sun filkers and gleams on the walls and rooftops of the labs. These bland knights of the marcel cult are all members of the same fraternity. Capt. Herbert W. Congdon, executive secretary of the Delta Upsilon fraternity, will be in Lawrence from Wednesday until Saturday. George Chandler, o'21, of Topeka is now in the state architect's office in Topeka. Entomologists Charivari Departmental Assistant Members of the entomology club held a charivari last night at 312 Maiden Lane, North Lawrencie, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Gunter, who were married last Saturday in Kansas City, Kans. Mr. Gunter is a field assistant in the department of entomology at the University. The bride is Emily M. Ewing, is employed at the Office of the Fraternal Aid Union. A vase of beautiful pottery was presented to Mr. and Mrs. Guntert by the members of the club. The bride and groom were 312 Milda in Lane, North Lawrence. European Scientist Is To Lecture Here On "Theory Of Atoms" Prof. A. Sommerfeld of Munich Will Talk to Chemists Saturday, Jan. 20 The lecture on "The Atomic Structure and Periodic System of Elements," by Prof. A. Sommerfeld of the University of Munich will be of great interest to the faculty of science and students of the University. The lecture will be given Saturday, January 20, at 8 p.m., in the Chemistry lecture room. Professor Sommerfeld occupies a very prominent place among the workers in advanced chemistry and physics. The work he is now doing is said to compare with that of the solar system at the time of Newton. Professor Ashton, a student of Sommerfeld's in Munich fifteen years ago, will be host to the visitor. He says that Professor Sommerfeld's somewhat different from the usual continental professor in that he does not surround himself with the customary encounters he invades the Euro-American lounge. The building of the theory of atomic structure will be discussed from all the points of view which have been touched in the work up to the present time. The first work of this book was in Rutherford's three years ago in England by Rutherford, his work was the first of any significance on this problem. On the mathematical side the theory has been developed greatly by Bohr of Denmark. In fact, Bohr's work has been so thorough that he was awarded the Nobel prize this year for his effort on this problem. Enrollment in School Must I Approved by Dean Seniors who are within ten hour of graduation may fill their schedule with graduate work, according to an announcement given by Dean Stoufer, of the Graduate School, this morning. Allow Senior Grad Work Seniors who wish to take advantage of this privilege must obtain a permit from the dean of their under-graduate school and then go to the graduate office. Seniors who fail to enroll for courses for which they want graduate credit cannot possess such permits, and roll in subjects as under-graduates and then expect to apply these credits to their graduate work later. The reason the enrollment must be approved by the dean is that credit of the graduates require slightly different work and it is necessary for them to have a degree in doing graduate work. This affects a large number of seniors. Earl McKinney, e22, is now in South Bend, Ind., connected with the Stadebaker Motor Corporation. Sonhomores Next semester all College freshmen and sophomores will be required to take at least five credit hours of their work in afternoon classes. Exemption from the above ruling will be made only for students who are admitted to the university and then only for those who present to the Dearer's Office before enrolling, a signed statement from their employer which definitely states the days and the hours at which their work must be done. The present semester's exemptions and not hold for next semester. To College Freshmen and Sophomores J. G. Brandt, Dean. Visting Delegates Introduced To K.U. At Convocation Legislators Promise Help to University When Considering Appropriation Bills Twenty-two Members Spoke John A. Farrel, chairman of Clay County was unable to attend, owing to sickness. Mr. C. H. Hatfield presided. Convocation in honor of the visiting members of the 1923 legislature, composing the Ways and Means Committee, started off with a snap this year. "Wing Miller leading a Rock-Chalk, leading the victory of Kansas last night." Chancellor Lindley in introducing vice-chairman C. H. Hattfeld of Gray County, told the representatives that talk "shup" unless they wished. Each of the twenty-two members had a few words to say. All expressed the idea that the state was going to suffer economy but not the crippling kind. They also declared that they had at heart our well-being and would never begrudge any expense to keep this institution going. W. B. Jackson of Comanche County expressed the opinion that the legislature's economy would not put a damper on the students" "think works" and keep them from doing their best in class. Need for Citizenship "The greatest wealth a nation can have is a group of young men and women coming into citizenship, able to carry on the government," said W. A. Newkirk of Barber County. Gworge W. Bland of Washington County and John L. Nebraska line, said that although he was nearer Nebraska U. he wanted to see the day K. U. would trim the Cornushkers in football. Chancellor Lindsey in closing the morning's speeches told the legislators that the University of Kansas was their institution, that they were directly responsible for it, and that they should make sure they would do the 'best thing for it.' Two selections by the Women's Glee Club were met with enthusiastic applause at the close of Convocation. Cigarette's Fate Pending Conflicting Bills Presented to State Legislature Cigarettes are either going to be purchased everywhere or nowhere in Kansas, according to bills introduced in the state legislature. W. E. Ireland, of Woodson County, submitted a bill to the legislature which would, in effect, put out of business any decision obtained of selling cigarettes. Hasty, of Sedwick would argue, in favor of repeal to the anti-cigarette law. Husty asks that users of cigarettes should be accorded the privileges which all tobacco users have. He also maintains that the anti-cigarette law lessens respect for other users. His effort is being made to enforce the prohibition laws while anti-cigarette laws are not. Mu Phi Epsilon Program Given For Women's Club Mu Phi Epison, assisted by MyrL Hart, hitter, read the program at the monthly meeting of the Federation of Women's Clubs yesterday at the Unitarian church. The program was as follows: Soprano solo...Mrs. Laramore, ac- companied by Hazel Dugger.
