Exhibit of Clay Modelling Moved to Haworth Hal
The art work executed by last year's class in clay modeling, which has been on exhibit in the east wing of the Administration Building, was removed this morning to the modeling room in Haworth Hall. The models will be left there until called for by their owners.
Visitors to the present classes in clay modeling are welcomed, though few students have been able to their way to the modeling room, which offers a variety of laboratory addition on the south side of Waurich Hall. The route lies through the laboratory between mixers, rock crushers and other machinery, and up and down eight or nine flights of stairs. This is known as the "Cripelle Creek line."
To Have Hot Water at Gym
To Have Hot Water at Gym Students use the showers and pool at the gymnasium will have hot water in the future, according to
Supt. John Shea. The reason for having to use cold water has been the change in heating plants, but the piping has finally been arranged so that there will be plenty of hot water in the future.
Clothing to be Shipped
Clothing to be Shipped For Near East Relief
The American Friend's Service Committee of Philadelphia, an organization allied with the American Relief Administration, has sent to Miss Mary Byrd of Lawrence an "S. O. S." clothing for the Near East Erie.
Two shipments will be made from this city, and the Daughters of the American Revolution will assist in packing the first box, which will leave Saturday, September 30. This will be an important shipment because it will reach the Near East in time for the first cold weather.

If those who have clothing to send on this first shipment will call Mrs T. E. Griesa, phone 381, she will call for it Saturday morning.
K. U. ALUMNI STAND FIRMLY BEHIND TEAM
Pledge Support Towards Making K. U. Athletic History in East
The Jayhawkers who have flow an be counted upon as an enthusiic part of the power behind the cam. C. H. Voorbees, who was studious in law and a practicing law in New Havon, Conn., writes the following letter, evidence $f$ the loyalty and faith of the alumni $f$ the University of Kansas.
Cant refrain from reminding you, Potsy, the team and all other loyal Jayhawkers that we "strangers in a foreign land" are going to West Point to see Kanaas win. In fact, it would be amazing to question what a glorious opportunity has made to nikhite history for old K. U. here in the east. Nebraska has started it and if K. U.—or when K. U., I should say, whips those guys around on their boots. Here's out that won't stop to speak to an ordinary Y man here.
But I'm rambling—what I wished to ask was whether or not there is anything we at this end can do to help? Any information to be desired from Yale men who played against them here last year, or from coaches? Of course you've heard of that wonderful half-back they have—Greene, I think his name is. He made Yale look foolish last year and that in spite of one leg which he fairly dragged as if the knee were stiff. Fast as lightning and as elusive as these long Island Sound mackeder. Incidently he boots and musses, the latter with dangerous ability.
And what support from the cadet student body! Never saw anything to equal our performance here last year.
But I repeat, in spite of wizard halfbacks, inspiring cheering, handicap of long trip, etc., the school which played that memorable game against Nebraska in 1920 can beat West Point. And a small but mighty gang is going up to help do it. Let us know up what we are doing. What anything we can do in the meantime.
Naturally we haven't heard anything of K. U. this fall. Here's hoping prospects are bright and that Potty turns out a winner. One who has been playing in the youth of Kansas, which he did while there, has it coming to him.
How proud you must be of your stadium. Those of us who were privileged to do our bit were very fortunate. Though unable to see Kansas fight and win in it, we are not affected by this. We are not and some of creative interest in it.
But I mustn't take too much of your time. Tell all the squad we're with, 106,000 strong in spirit. Vicoriously yours," C.-C. H. Voorkees.
K. U. Engineer May Head National Organization
John Lyle Harrison, fa'25, has been nominated by the official nominating committee of the American Society of mechanical Engineers, for president if that organization. It is the largest engineering society in the world; formal election will be held later this all.
Mr. Harrison is located in Kansas where he is the consulting engineer of the firm of Harrington, toward and Asha.
Never before in the history of that organization has the official candidate been a nwestern man. The 17,000 members of the society are nearly all外terners.
Sachems will report to Cheerloader Miller at the Gymnasium, 8 o'clock tonight (Monday). Bring paddles. Loud, H. Rungephal. Sick, Chief.

CONTINUE SALE OF ENTERPRISE TICKETS
Books Are Now in Hands of 110 Student Cam-paigners
2000 TO BE SOLD IS GOAL
Salesmen Are Asked to Check in on Tuesday Evening.
Sale of Student Enterprise tickets is rapidly going forward in the hands of the 110 student campaigners who have been delegated for the job. Each has received ten tickets for disposal and many have already returned them, both stock and have returned for more. The goal sought is 2,000 tickets sold.
All Student Activity Ticket salesmen have been asked by Dean Dyer to check in the number of tickets sold and the money received for them by 5 o'clock Tuesday evening at the office of the Dean of Men.
"Most salesmen to whom books were delivered yesterday said that at least half of their tickets were sold in advance and there is every indication that they are being sold in the week," said Waldo Bowman, chairman of the executive committee.
Books Delivered Yesterday
Books 'Delivered' Wednesday
The books were delivered to the
membership committee yesterday
by Dean Dyer and members of
the executive committee.
"Virg" Miller, cheerleader, received ten tickets at 10 o'clock and returned at 13:00 o'clock for ten more saying that they were easy to sell.
Chancellor Lindley gave a member of the committee his check for $24 and received three books.
Chancellor Buys Three
There will be no complimentary tickets this year except to “k” men, said Dr. Allen as he purchased four of the Activity Tickets.
Students who were not seen by members of the committee may buy tickets at the D. M. C, A., the W. Y. C, A., office of the Dean of Men. or the Office of the Dean of the School of Law, or office of the Dean of Women.
The athletic office has a record of all the books of tickets which are sold and will use this record in making reservations. On the outside of the book is a number and this number should be written on the ticket of the game for which a reserved seat is desired along with the applicant's signature. Only the one ticket need be sent to the athletic office and not the entire book, as many have been led to believe.
OTIS TESTS ARE SIGNIFICANT
Indicates Students Capability for Classwork
However, no conclusions should be drawn as to the character of the course, teaching or grading, except that the latter was severe. However, it does seem that severe grading eliminates the unfit. Of the thirty lowest in intelligence only two "got by."
Correlation between the Otia Psychoological tests and one of the more difficult courses on the hill has been found very close. Of a group of two we have found a fifth, the course and the test, grades were outpared from a group of ninety-seven of them, and it was found that out of the lowest twenty-three in intelligence there was not a single student passed. While out of the highest eight was only one only failure, but there were two A5, five B5 and seven C's.
It is not intended that these tests shall be regarded as absolutely accurate in each case, but more than they are correct and indicative of what the student will do in his university work and in life.
Comparisons similar to these are being made at the present, and the investigators intend before long to exhibit further facts which will make comparisons possible. The easier courses may show different results from these. Students of average intelligence who made low grades in this course may make excellent grades in a course of a different level. In other cases factors as temperament, time spent on outside activities, and such must be considered. Some students of low or average intelligence may make high grades by hard work and application, while those of greater mental power may much less than they are capable of.
Tryouts For MacDowell to be Held October 16
Tryout for MacDowell Fraternity will be held October 16, it was decided by the organization at its first meeting yesterday afternoon. Application blanks may be obtained from the Fine Art business office or from Jack Dickson, president. Dickson said that everyone desiring to try out should do so at this time because the only opportunity offered this year.
Plans were made to bring several prominent artists here for concerts during the year.
Future meetings of the club will be held in Fraser Hall.
PLANS ARE READY FOR BIG SEND-OFF RALLY
Yell-Fest Will Include Speeches by Chancellor, Davis and Coaches
All plans are in readiness for the biggest rally ever, according to an announcement this afternoon by "Virg" Miller, cheerleader. Fraternity members and about 100 people their meetings so that about anyone may come to the fest on time.
The cry will resound far and near through the streets of Lawrence this evening when the gang begins to gather for the big sendoff rally at Robinson Gymnasium. The speeches will start at 8 o'clock.
"Rally! Ral-l-l-lly! Everybody out."
Miller also requests that all men attending the rally bring a large well-fed box to help spur the conflagration on North College to greater heights. The boxes may be added to the pile either before or after the speeches, but should be there in time so that all may be in readiness when the marching thousands arrive from the hill.
Chancellor Lindley and W. W. Davis have given their consent to be placed on the program in Robinson. Potay Clark and Phog Allen will have something to say also. In addition the band will play and there will be many and various yells, led by 'the three new cheerleaders.
Everyone is asked to be on hand promptly at eight, so that the rally will start off with a bang.
ART STUDENT DESIGNS SEAI
Work Now on Exhibit at Brazilian Exposition
The painting was done in a monochrome of brown with lettering of gold, on a piece of white satin 30 by 36 inches. The diameter of the seal itself is 24 inches. It was painted at the request of the United States Government, made through Governor Henry Allen.
The Kansas State Seal drawn by Leonard Sebra, fringed, and painted by Miss Rosemary Ketcham, professor of the department of design, was sent to Brazil this summer where it hung with the seals of the other states in the home of the American Embassy there. It is now being exhibited at the Brazil Centennial Exposition which began in Sentember.
Because there was no reproduction of the seal, it was protographed this summer at Squire's studio and the pictures are being kept in this country—one in Chancellor Lindley's office at the Capitol Building at Topeka.
Besides the exhibition sent from here, will be displays from the other states.
With the seal was sent a 16 inch pennant of blue silk with "Kansas" lettered in red silk.
Organize Psychology Fraternity
Beta Chi Sigma, honorary Psychological fraternity, was organized Friday, September 29. The following of officers were elected: president, John Linggert; vice president, Dorothy Mosly; secretary, Myra Lingenfelter treasurer, Margaret Brown. Besides the above mentioned members, older deans and old female staff and Gerald Deline Pitt. Meetings will be held the first and third Wednesdays in each month. The object of the fraternity is to extend interest in psychological and physiological literature.
The home of the American Embassy at Brazil which is to retain the seal sent from the University is a new $275,000 building and is being used as a permanent home for the Embassy.

Snow Hall is Getting Its Annual Haircu
Every summer the ivy which clings to the historic walls of Snow Hall, gets an overwhelming curiosity as to what is proceeding inside, and it obstructs the windows until the dungeon on the appearance of dungeons.
Those who object to the semi-monthly haircut should appreciate the valor of the barber who attacks him with a stiletto. The toy boxes, eager to gain admission to die an inglorious death on the platform of a microscope, entangle themselves about the windows until it is impossible to see without them.
Howard Supple, c'22, an economics major and assistant instructor in the department of economics last year, left Wednesday for the University of Chicago. Mr. Supple holds a fellowship in that institution.
Hereafter it will be possible for those busily engaged in carving a frog, to have an unobstructed view of the outside world. Frechen may want to see the warty beetle without missing a glimpse at the passing students.
Sigma Tau Will Award Medal For Scholarship
Matters which are to come up at the National Conclave of the Sigma Tau fraternity were discussed Tuesday night at a meeting at the Pi Kappa Alpha house with Bransford Creshaw, e23, the delegate of the local chapter of the organization. The Conclave will be held at the University of Colorado at Boulder, Colo., Oct. 1. While there the delegates will be the guests of the Iota Chapter of Sigma Tau.
It is particularly hoped that the matter of competition which has arisen through misunderstanding of the field of Sigma Tau between this honorary fraternity and other fraternities may be amicably straightened.
CHAMLEE UNABLE TO FULFILL ENGAGEMENT
Owing to Illness Tenor Will Not Appear Here Tuesday Examine
Dean H. L, Butter of the School of Fine Arts and manager of the University Concert Course issued the folio to students in attendance for postponement of the Changhe concert.
Mario Chamles, who was to have appeared in the first number of the University Concert Course Tuesday at the UCLA Chapel, filled his engagement, due to illness.
"Mr. Chamblee's illness has made it necessary for him to cancel all concerts in the middle west for the concerts of the season, and no assurance that he would be able
"After writing several managers of noted artists, I was fortunate to secure Cyrena Van Gordon, the principal contralto of the Chicago Opera Company. The patrona of the concert course will find that Miss Van Gordon has a phenomenal voice in power, quality and range. During the past year she sang such contralto roles as 'Delle' in 'Samson et Dèse' and 'Ordal' in 'Lahore'. She has also sung the dramatic soprano role of 'Brunhilde' in the 'Valkyrie.' She is an experienced recital singer, as she toured this country in concert repeatedly before going into opera.
"For her recital here miss Van Goron will receive $250 more than Mr Chamlee would have received. An exact substitution of dates was impossible, so Miss Van Gordon will give the opening number of the concert course Monday evening, October 9, in Robinson Gymnasium. The Chamlee tickets may be used for admission to this concert."
KANSANS HAVE STADIUM BUG
Pittsburg and Washburn Plan Campaigns Soon
That interest in college athletics throughout the state is growing is evidenced by the new athletic fields being planned and built in Kansas.
At Manhattan, the forms have been removed from the upper part of the first section of the new K. S. A. C. stadium and Athletic Director Mike Hennessey to allow more sections compleed in time for the homecoming game. Each section has thirty seats of seats and is 18 yards wide, with a seating capacity of about 800; so there will be seats for 36 players and bleachers and the old grandstand.
Alpha Chi Sigma, honorary chori
fraternity, announces the pledging
of Howard Morgan, e24.
Pittsburgh Training Normal, with a much larger enrollment this year, has also started a campaign for a stadium. The normal has 20 teams, but its are being worked out by the erection of a concrete stadium.
Washburn College has been agitating a similar plan for some years, and although no definite steps have yet been taken, Washburn followers are boosting for a stadium drive next year.
Miss Elizabeth Howard of Leen Summit, Mp., spent Sunday with Margaret Hughes, e23, at the Alpha Dpli Plu house.
BEAT THE ARMY!
PLANS ARE MATURING FOR BIG CAMPUS DAY
Will Organize Different Schools for Work Next Saturday Morning
H. A. RICE IS IN CHARGE
Finance Committee Makes Arrangements for Noon Meal at Commons
This morning Prof. H. A. Rice, of the School of Engineering, visited the offices of the deans of the schools and laid before them the plan evolved for the work on Campus Day at the first meeting of the committee on September 28. So far organization of the schools into groups and all
Organization of the schools of the University in preparation for K. U.'s first Campus Day, October 7, the date of the Kansas-Army game at West Point, is the biggest factor in program of the Campus Day Community College. Organizations of the faculty and employees and representatives of the student body.
f the schools into squads and allotment of work to them for four hours next Saturday morning has held the interest of the committee.
Will Donate Money
The finance committee, a sub-committee to the general one for Campus Day, consisting of Professors U. G. Mitchell and W. J. Haugmenter, matricled their work with Professors K. V. and sororites on the Hill Last Saturday and drew up plans for their closing for the noon meal on S day. The Greek letter organizations have agreed to donate the money he made in this way to the general fund for the college. Professors and deans on Saturday in recognition for the work during the morning.
The general committee has been working out a longer and better list of jobs about the campus at which the students can be set to work. This is in recognition of the fact that the committee on Stadium Day two years ago estimated the old McCook bleachers would be torn down by the middle of the afternoon, and all the objects of the committee to provide plenty of work for industrious students.
Will Provide Tools
One of the biggest obstacles faced so far has been that of providing the proper tools to work with. The University does not own enough to lend to the individual students or even to the individual working squads,
though John Shea, superintendent of grounds and buildings, has ordered more tools and will loan out to re-available students all he has available.
It is planned to make the individual student responsible for each tool loaned by the University this year, as two years ago it stood a considerable loss for failing to make anyone in particular responsible.
"We want every student who has a shovel, spade, pick or other land-scape-gardening instrument," said Professor Rice this morning, "to bring it on the campus next Saturday morning. He himself will be responsible for the tool and it is not likely to get lost."
COSMOPOLITAN CLUB ELECTS
