Caryve Rogers, captain of the team, is in fine shape on the poles vault. He has been doing twelve feet off of the board track whenever he felt like it, and he should be able to add several inches to that height by the time the game is A. C. most difficult, Norton and support him well in this event.
Middle Distances Promising
In the middle distance, K. U., who beats Steve Griffin, Fireballhack Keillet, and McCoy showed up well in the quarter-mile Saturday. And the prospectus for a strong entry in this event are good.
"Kansas won't miss Bradley and Kearney in the hurdles, as much as was feared early in the season," Coach Schindelman said. "Graham is both good and is doing better right now than either Bradley or Kearney did at this time last year. He's good in both the high and low hurdles, and if we could get a running mate for him, he would have chance in the hurdles in any meet."
In the distances, the material is not so certain, although the indications are that there will be a strong

Sir:
In response to your letter of November 18th, I regret to inform you that, as the quota of immigrants allowed to enter from Turkey is exhausted, no action can be taken by this Consulate General in the case of Iran Varten Mamigonian until next June.

Crumbine, head of the State Board of Health, in his talk yesterday to Miss Sprague's class of senior Home Economics students in a course dealing with Public Aspects of the Household.

The list of K. U. representatives includes; Edward R. Weidlein, A. B. A. M.;*10* vice-chairman and director of the Institute; E. S. Staterl, A. B. *13*; secretary; Gilbert Bragg, B. S.*13*; Harry S.

System Founded at K. U.
The industrial fellowship system was formulated in the University of Kansas by the late Dr. Robert Kennedy Duncan in 1906 and was placed primarily in experimental operation, January, 1907. The system was in practice at K. U. under the direction of Professor Duncan, four years, durably, and in which the number increased in number from the original three to more than twenty, among whom was Professor Edward Weidlein, now director of the institute.
This Industrial Fellowship System was placed in the University of Pittsburgh on March 1, 1911. Two years later, Andrew William Mellon, now Secretary of the Treasury, and Richard Beatty Mellon, established the Mellon Institute in connection with the University of Pittsburgh, as a center for technical investigation in chemistry and allied subjects.
Investigates Problems
The working plan of the institute, in substance, is that any industrialist, company, or group of manufacturers, having a problem or group of problems requiring investigation, man or equipment for such fellowship. The problems must be of sufficient scope to require the services of one man for one year, who is se-
the executive staff of the institute.
The organization is not of a commercial nature, being entirely independent and deriving no financial profit from the investigations conducted under its auspices. The donor provides a sum of money large enough to cover the cost of operating charges, all necessary special apparatus or other equipment, and the salary of

Revise Astronomy Course
Add New Non-Scientific Class
For Upperclassmen
The present six hour elementary course in astronomy will be changed next semester into a five hour course consisting of observational and descriptive work and a two hour lecture course, according to Prof. Dinmore Alter. The two hour course will not be open to freshmen but will serve as a non-technical course for upper classmen.
The five hour course will be open to all students and will fill the physical science group. Mathematical requirements for this course will be plane geometry and high school algebra. Students will learn the names and locations of various stars and constellations; knowing the use of the engineer's transit, the spectroscope and the equatorial telescope; and determining the latitude of Lawrence and the true north and south of earth by observation e the stars.
A two hour course is planned for students whose interest is in non-scientific work. No mathematics higher than arithmetic will be used, but the course will produce that the course will be the most popular one in the department.

Chinch Bugs Are Costly K. U. Entomologist Discusses Parasites in Radio Talk
Damage for chinch bugs is bound to be great unless the wheat growers of Kansas act promptly and effectively at his time, declared S. J. Hunter, entomologist at the University of Kansas, in speaking last night over the radio station WDAF. The warning was based on observations of field men for the University department of entomology.
He suggested burning of overgrown corners, weedy hedge rows, and rubbish piles as the best means of combating the impending pest, which is at this time a full-grown individual in winter quarters.
The household is also bothers by insect pests, chief among them being cockroaches. Equals part of powdered borax and sweetened chocolate placed
Professor Hunter pointed out how many of the insects troublesome to man and these parasites in turn are attacked by a parasite which destroys the host until its reduced numbers cause a falling off of the parasite. In conclusion he cited the common ladybug as an insect of great value because of its deverging of more injurious insects.
