University Senate Will Debate Merits of Six-Day Week
COMMITTEE FOR FLUNKS
Would Make Uniform Regulations for Raising Grades of Students
The question of scheduling University classes on Saturday mornings, beginning next semester, will be a special order of business at the next meeting of the University Senate the first Tuesday in November. A motion thus to use Saturday mornings was made by Dean H. W. Arant, the school of law, at yesterday's meeting and on Thursday of Professor A. T. Walker was made the special order of business.
The matter of using Saturday mornings for resitiation developed out of a long discussion or University convocations, evoked when Dean Kent, chairman of the convoction committee, introduced a resolution asking the schedule committee to arrange next semester's schedules. so as to provide time, open for convolutions or for such other University meetings as might be desirable.
To Deal with Dishonesty Other matters coming before the Senate included the authorization of an all-University committee to work on a program that would "incomplete," and "failures," and the raising of "D" grades. The deans of the respective schools are to nominate members for the committee, which will be named by the chancellor. The matter of uniform methods of deal with disloyalty in classrooms was referred to the joint committee or student affairs.
Professors Thurman and Baumgartner were named to draft senate resolutions upon the death of Professor Kruse, and Professors OLeary and Young were named to nominate a secretary for the Senate.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 4, 1922.
"For the good of the order," said Dr. F. B. Dainis, "I should like to call attention to the basketball schedule which has just been published. It does not seem to me that you students can do justice to their school work given the injuries in weeks, considering the travel involved."
Dean Arant declared that the only justification for taking such hours would be the utilization of other equally good hours—the Saturdays, which he said are now wasted. Another speaker denied that Saturdays were wasted, and still another entered a plea for Saturday mornings for students and had many reports to the conversation question was finally tabled and Dean Arant offered his resolution for Saturday classes, which, upon Professor Walker's motion, went over until the next regular meeting.
Discuss Convocations
The question of convocation provoked spirited discussion. The committee was held in a fixed hour was based on criticism of the present system as one that caused undue interruption of classroom work. Opposition to the fixed date was based on the difficulty of making that date and the convenience of suitable speakers coincide. Opposition was also made about the setting aside of four hours a month, in the best (morning) hours, when only one student were to be used for convocations.
NUMBER 18.
The Senate adjourned until Thursday, when it will hear the chancellor's recommendation for the next biennial budget.

Knappen, who was in charge of the parade last year. He said that many of the various counties in securing new students and exerting influence for the good of the University.
The attitude of the rural and town districts must be friendly before enthusiasm can be obtained. Dean J. R. Dyer made a tour this summer, studying the conditions of the rural districts. He suggests:
"If a get-together party could be given by K. U. students and one or more members of the faculty for the seniors of the high schools of every county, during the Christmas holidays it would do a great deal toward influencing the young people to come to K. U."

Tools Needed for Work
"The tools needed for this work," said Prof. H. A. Rice, chairman of the Campus Day Committee, this morning, "are scythes, hand axes or hatchets, and rakes. All students have acclimatized to these tools and are expected to bring them to work Satur day morning."
The School of Engineering, organized under the direction of Prof. G. A. Shaad, will grade the ground both in front of and behind Marvin Hall, in addition to moving material in the electrical engineering laboratory. Wheelbarrows and shovels are the implements needed for this work.
The Schools or Alumni Aho Pearl-

Sod is Already Correct
Yesterday afternoon workmen began cutting the sod for the field at the Butcher farm, west of the Ute National Forest. Faculty motor trucks will commence hauling it into the field. Approximately an acre of ground will be cut at the farm.
Contrary to the first plans of the committee on Campus Day, it has been decided to display the huge electric scoreboard, upon which will be shown the West Point game, play by play, on the Stadium field. More students can be accommodated there than at Robinson Gymnasium. Lawrence High School has agreed to show the University in order to build one day in order that the University can have the use of the field on Saturday.
No Work, No Eat Is Rule "No person who does not work on the campus in the morning will be admitted to the electric score board demonstration in the afternoon," said Professor Rice this morning. "A fee will be charged all those who are admitted otherwise."

Junior Honorary Society to Canvass Student Body for Annual
R H 1
Yanks ...000 001 100 2 7
Giants ...000 000 100 3 11
The Owls, junior honorary society, will take exclusive charge of the 1923 Jayhawk sales campaign tomorrow and Friday, according to a decision made last night. Floyd Shields was elected sales manager and will have charge of the camp and supervision of the Jayhawk manager. To sell 1,000 annuals in addition to those already sold. The student body will be divided and teams will canvass it thoroughly. The Owls will be active in Jayhawk affairs this year as the Jayhawker is to become a junior publication. This year, by eliminating the prize contests held in October, the Jayhawk managers hope to be able to put much more into the book.
"I consider it very fitting for the Owls to take charge of the sale of the University's annual," said Howard Frank, president. "While the book is issued by the senior class at present, eventually it will become a junior publication. I feel that all juniors should back it to the utmost. It is right in line with the purpose of the university's annual publication of such great value." While the campaign which the Owls will carry out will close on Friday, the Jayhawk sales campaign is to run until October 12, after which date no more books will be sold with the privilege of having the owner's name stamped on the cover, free. This innovation was made by the managers who must know immediately how many books to order. After October 12, this name service will hold for a few months; who care for this added feature, this is absolutely bona fide and will go into effect October 12.

K. S. A. C. women will have to wait at least two years before they will be housed in dormitories, as a result of the action taken by President Jardine.
