NUMBER 63
Thieve continued boating organized houses on the Hill last night, During the dinner near last evening, a thief entered the P I Beta Phi house at 1246 Mississippi Street and escaped with a wrist watch, a check on a Kansas City bank for sixty dollars, and a small amount of change that was lying on a desk in the hallway. It was evidently feared away soon it was dropped in the hallway doo-waistles.
The police were also called to the Chi Omega house about 10:30 o'clock last night when the women in the study hall heard a prowler in the kitchen and saw the door of the kitchen being opened. The prowler was evidently scared away by the screams of the women of the house for when the men of a neighboring fraternity were called no trace of the mauruder were found. The police could find no evidence of any assault, second time this week that the Chi Omega house has been visited by prowlers.
At the Pi Beta Phi house, the prower entered by climbing the low front torch and removing the screen on a second story window. He had been in the room but a short time for it had just been vacant for dinner. Charlotte Alken who had remained in the room was entrusted into the room just as the intruder was pilfering the wardrobe. Miss Alken caught a profile view of the man, but could not clearly see his features as he was partly hidden by the door of the wardrobe. Miss Alken describes him as being wearing a dark gray suit. She says that he was of dark complexion.
Cuts Window Screen
She gave the alarm, and two student table waiters went up to the room to search the intruder, but he had evidently corsoed his danger and left by the same route he had entered.
Police Give Chase
When the police arrived at the house they found a suspect in the yard but Miss Alken could not positively identify him as the intruder.
A few minutes later someone turned in the alarm that a prowler had been seen in the vicinity of the library, and the police gave chase, but no arrests were made. This is the fifth in the student district this week.

Lausanne Offers Little Probability Of Peace --Davis
motive of the Turk is Only to Retain Mastery in His Own
"The chances that a *lasting* arrangement, will come out of the present Lausanne conference are slight," said Prof. W. W. Davis of the department of history in an interview today upon the Near East sitation "White Horse." I will accept as a result of the whole situation, I do not believe that one will come.
House
"The question is so bound up with conflicting interests and nationalities, that it can not be settled in any brief time. The trouble between Greeks and Balkans, between Christianity and Mohammedanism will persist for a long time because the people occupied by those peoples will be a scar spot for decades to come.
"The Laamane conference" will probably result in a tentative agreement on the scale and other questions, but have the way for "the conference."
Sees Russ-Turk Entente
"The Russians are undoubtedly in back of the Turkish dominates, and although we have no definite proof of the existent of a treaty between the two governments, I believe that are entente exists.
"The demand of the Turks that they be given unanimous sovereignty" (2006) Contaminture and Eastern Thrace is one upon which they will insist. In my opinion no arrangement does not seem to do this, which does not concur in this demand.
"While the question of commerce through the states now is not important, owing to the economic condition of Turkey and Russia, it will be of vital importance later, when normal commerce is reopened." In all the states then will be one of economic strategy as well as of military and naval strategy."
"They ask, too, for nothing short of a share in the control of commerce through the Straits. I do not know how far they will go in backing this demand, but they have so far showed no disposition to relinquish a share if the control of the states through an international commission.
Turks Ignore Treaty
Prof. Herbert Feis will talk on the subject of "Kansas Influence in Europe" at Women's Forum, Thursday at 4:30 o'clock in Room 210 Fraser. Announcement, will be made at the meeting concerning the time for the picture of the Forum to be taken for the Jaiyhawker.
"The Turks must upon abolition of capitulary privileges in Turkey, and upon reorganization of the national debt service. If the allies persist in refusing, the result will be hostility toward the Allies on the part of the Turks. The Turks liscite, too, on the recognition by the powers of the empire, withish government. This will be done, I believe, within a very short time."
Favors U. S. Policy "I believe that the position taken by the United States in the present conference is correct. The whole question is beyond our zone of interest. Our government should insist on a fuller degree, and should have representatives there to advise, to mediate or even to arbitrate if necessary. But our country should take no active part in the adjudication of the complex problems of the Near East."
*The present government does not •
• take the Treaty of Sevres.
It has made arrangements in violation
of that treaty, and a new settlement
must be made. The oil fields of
the Kingdom of Iraq in Mesopotamia
will be an important question. Turkey
refuses to recognize the present
boundaries of the Kingdom of Iran,
which deprive Turkey of important
resources. Britain has recognized these
boundaries. A new settlement will therefore have to be made to adjust these questions.
"In considering the whole question, it should be borne in mind that the Turk is seeking only to be master in his own house. The present government is a provisional republic based on the will of the people. Whether it will succeed remains to be seen but the country today is a pretty enlightened nation," she said, recompensation to live down before they can be accepted as a power among the nation of Europe, but I believe they can do it."
Charges that the railroad shopmen atkine on railroads which did not settle with the federal shop crafts have resolved itself into a backwort were charged to the county of Chicago by counsel for the crafts in the government's injunction suit.

Many amusing incidents helped to relieve the tedium of the engineers on their inspection trip to St. Louis. At times they were artifacts were engineers. Many women worked in some of the plants they visited. Imagine how hard it was for the professors to hold their proteges in tow.
Senior Engineers Fall For the Statley Derby
The National Car and Foundry Works was about the liveliest place they visited. They辖 everywhere were swimming about in wild confusion, and one had to watch his step and move home with his cranium intact. They injured of one the foremen as to the average length of life of the employees and found out that it varied from day to day. On leaving this place they counsed themselves over to be sure that every one was there.
Just before the party was dismissed at St. Louis, someone started an epidemic of derby wearing. It took and spread rapidly, from Mechanical to Industrial, Civil to Chemical. Mining to Electrical. It is said that in the 1970s, a price of derbies rose from twenty-five cents to thirteen dollars.
After everyone had secured one or more of them, a solemn covenant was entered upon to sturm Mt. Oread with them. Monday morning, one solitary engineer, glancing furiously from side to side from under the brim of his St. Louis derby, stole with muffled breath. Under him he carried an extra headgear, the one he before Thanksgiving. What became of him no one knows, but the derby-worning engineer is now extinct on the campus.
Cherokees Claim Tract on Strength of Treaty
Houston, Tex.-Formal claim for possession of over 15,000 acres of land, located in the Panhandle section of Texas, will be presented to the Texas legislature at its next regular session in January, by attorneys for the Texas Cherokee and other kindred bands of Indians.
The claim to this vast tract valued at more than $200,000,000, is based upon a treaty allied to have been signed between the Indian tribes and representatives of the existent Republic of Tuxas, nearly a century ago.

Christmas Number Of Oread Magazine Comes Out Monday
"What I Think of K. U. Women' is to be Feature of Holiday Issue
The red and green of the Christmas cover for the first book of the Oread will mark the appearance of this literary production on the Hill, Monday morning. A great deal of time and effort on the part of the staff will make this an important one of the most interesting of the Quill publications.
"While the coming Oread is primarily a holiday number, there is a wide variety of subject matter included, so that at no time do the pages become monottonous," said K. U. Women. "Several weeks ago the Oread staff announced a prize of $5 for the best letter on the subject of "What I Think of K. U. Women." In regard to the award of the prize-Miss Cross said, "It is a curious fact that the frankest and fanciest letters were written by two former men students, who were not married, but hospita distance lands courage, rather than enchantment, in this case. At any race both letters are to be included in the humour section, together with a short reply. No names of winners can be announced because both letters were signed with initials and addresses only. The small prize he ween the two contassants."
The stories are widely varied in theme and includes a short story whose scene is laid in the stone-paved streets of old Bedchroman, another, of which Lucineta Borgia is the central character. The title is "The Man Who Made Men Laugh". The latter is one of the longest stories ever featured in the magazine and was written by Frames Warren, a pledge to Quil Club. The story deals with the murder of a young girl enough "hymotic power" to carry the reader unresisting to the end.
"Two distinctive pages of poetry
park this issue," said George
Struble, verse editor. "Members of
the faculty of English were invited
to participate in making up a page to
be known as 'Poetry and Pedrogery'
for the book." Struble wrote:
"A page of 'Yule-title Verse' breaks
away from the 19th century in Christmas
poetry and adds materially to the
interest of our holiday number."
R. O. T. C. Gives Banquet

The music was furnished by an orchestra, that played all during the meal, and a quartet of R. O. T. C. men as an extra attraction. The men in the quartet were: Travis Hale, Tweil Weir, Tom Hughey, and W. K. Crain. At 8:30 the banquet "broke up," and everyone was grateful to Battery "A" for putting on such a successful party.
Jay Ledbetter was the victim of a painful accident Tuesday morning in the chemistry laboratory when he ran a long glass tube into the palm of his left hand, cutting a large hole in it. He was administered once, but the wound bleed so freely that Mr. Ledbetter was forced to seek a doctor.

E. H. LINDLEY.
As an illustration of the effectiveness of student teamwork, Tuesday evening a group of K.U. students visited their home school at Garnett and took part in the dedication ceremonies of the new high school.
