PARADE AND STUNTS AT FRESHMAN FROLIG
First Year Girls and Big Sisters Hold Revel Saturday Evening
IMPROMPTU PLAY PLEASES
Make Traditional Lantern Pilgrimage to Chancellor's Home
A large crowd of freshman girli and their big Sisters gathered in Robion Gymnastics Saturday evening under the auspices of Y. W. C. A. under the auspices of Y. W. C. A.
As each girl entered the gymnasium, she was given a card on which was the name of a family. All members of the same family gathered together and put on a stunner. The Enchanted Princess bought bag of peanuts by a very clever little play entitled "It may be Comedy for you, but it's Tragedy for me."
NUMBER 11
After the mixer, the new girls were each given a lantern, and the traditional lantern parade to the Chancellor's home formed. At the Chancellor's home the girls sang a number of songs and then paraded back up the Hill to Fraser Hall, where an enviable program was given.
Refreshments of ice cream cones and animal crackers were served after the stunts had been presented.
Lantern Parade After Mixer
The first number on the program was a clever dance by Stella Harris, "The Sneak." This was followed by some vocal songs by Margaret Larkin, who is always popular at K. U. gatherings. A dance by Djemke JDL, in the costume of a little girl, created the big hit of the evening.
Farce Is Given
The last number of the program was a one act farce written by Austs Cross, c23, and Melba Parker, c23 for the 1956 Broadway production of Glass," or "Before and After."
This play was an impromptu affair with no written dialogue, so the girl had to manufacture their own parts. There was only one rehearsal, in spite of which the face went off beautifully.
The setting of the play was Dr Bacon's Office in Robinson Gymnast on a school morning.
The Cast Follows;
The cast of characters was as fol lows:

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MONDAY, SEPT. 25. 1922.
Prof. Arthur L. Owen, of the department of Spanish, has been elected correspondent member of the Hispanic Society of America.
The whole evening was a huge success. Hope Selig director; Geraldine Pettit, in charge of the Mixer; Dorotha Horton, in charge of the refreshments; and Austra Cross, in charge of the program in Fraser; are to be congratulated for their share in arranging the evening's pleasure.
This society was founded in 1904 by Archer M. Huntington of New York, scholar, patron of art and letters and multi-millionaire. Its purpose is to further the study of the culture and history of Spain and Portugal.
The membership is honorary, limited and supposed to include only those who have contributed to Spanish or Portuguese scholarship in art or letters. Professor Owen has written several books and articles on the various aspects of the Spanish language and people.
The society publishes historical and critical editions and three learned periodicals: Revue Hispanique, Biblioteca America and Bibliographie Hispanica.
It also introduced to America the work of the great modern Spanish artists, Sarella and Zulaga. Its museum and library in New York contains the most collections represented the Spanish Art and Letters on this continent.

K. U. Student Directory Will be Complete Soor
Copy for the annual student directory is typed and will soon be sent to the state printer, according to the Foster, registrar of the University.
"It is very important," said Mr. Foster, "that every student have his correct address and telephone number filed with this office so as to make contact."
"If any student failed to give his Lawrence address and telephone number at registration, or if they have changed the same since filling out the cards, they should come to this office at once and file proper address. The list will be held a few days for these changes.
"The student directory has always proven very popular with students," he said, "and it is only by their full knowledge that it can be made complete."

Celebrates Birthday of Telephone in Belgium
In this day when so much is being said of the desirability of the extension of American trade to the other countries of the globe, it is interesting to note that the International Western Electric Company is just celebrating the forthright birthday of its Belgian business partner, the manufacturing Company of buttwerp, one of the most flourishing manufacturing concerns on the other
side of the Atlantic. This organization dates back to 1882, when a group of shipbuilders from Europe and gathered together a modest shop force of seven untainted native workmen, which was the nucleus of a factory that has expanded until today. The factory employs five officers and ranks as Belgium's fifth largest exporting industry.

Courses Booked Through Extension Division Will go to Kansas Towns
K. U. LECTURE SERIES TO GO ON ROAD SOON
ENTERTAINMENT AT COST
High Schools Usually Take Charge of University Lecture Course
A majority of the lecture courses booked through the University Extension Division to be presented in towns throughout Kansas will open within the next four weeks, according to Miss Josie Henderson, secretary, at the extension office. These courses are merely one of the several "services" offered to towns in Kansas through the Extension Division.
"The talent is contracted for and delivered to the towns on the basis of actual cost involved," said Miss Henderson.
Best Talent Provided
BEST TRENDS PROVIDED
"We have consistently provided the best训养 in town to towns can afford," she continued, "and with the co-operation of those assuming local responsibility, the courses in the past two years have been quite successful.
We are able to offer these courses at from 20 to 40 per cent below the prices of the commercial bureau."
In the majority of cases, according to Miss Henderson, the courses are put on by the high schools; special admission prices are usually given to students who attend school. Cost is used for school purposes. In other cases, community organizations conduct the courses.
In regard to the class of towns in which the entertainments are given Hess Henderson pointed out that such cities as Kansas City, Kansas, Leavenon City, St. Louis, as well as the smallest towns and even, in some cases, rural com municipales engage the courses. As rule there are about five number in a series, but this varies according to the number having a many, at eight numbers.
Individual Artists Too.
The talent is varied, including individual artists, concert companies, entertainers, musicians and lecturers. The cost of the numbers varies from $20 to $350. Among the talent are the Zoolander String Quartet, Vera Poppe and Edwin Swanson Ver Haar, Margery Marshall David Duggin and Davies Macdonald, Company, Charles A. Pawley, and others.
The University also furnishes considerable talent, and, according to Miss Henderson, K. U. entertainers have proven very popular, in most cases the calls being more than the University people can supply. Among the K. U. entertainers are: University Concert Company, composed of Dean and Mrs. Butler, aided by Mrs. Maureen Cook-AnderSON, formerly a professor in the School of Fine Arts; the University Company; the University Dramatic Company; the University Dramatic Company; the Waldo Geltch, violinist; and Dr. H. P. Cady, with his lecture on liquid air. The Rev. Frank Jenninga, pastor of the First Baptist Church, Lawrence is, also scheduled as a lecturer.

Chancellor.
Memorial Subscribers Privileged To Choose First For Football Games
Those persons who have not yet pledged to the Stadium fund can not make any seat reservations until after Oct. 14, according to Doctor Allen. "The persons who have subscribed to the Memorial Corporation fund have paid for seats of others," Allen said, and "and these persons are to be given first choice of seats."

WATER CONDITION IS BETTER
The letters are now being addressed and sent out. Just as soon as these letters are all mailed out, the athletic department will be ready to receive reservations from Stadium donators in order to help fund the in which they are made. The seats will then be reserved in order of filing.
City Plans New Intake in Center of Kaw
According to Mr. Henderson, the unpleasant odor of which people complained was due to the chemical action on the organisms of the copper sulphate which is being used to clear up the water. The color and taste caused by the organisms do not indicate any symptoms harmful physiologically, according to bacteriologists.
Permanent relief from the museeating qualities of Lawrence water supply is in sight. The city commissioners will advertise within the next few days for contractors to build a new intake in the center of the Kowai把它 present one which it supplies from the water's edge.
"No danger of the organisms returning in the water need be feared unless stagnation occurs," said the city engineer, William Henderson. The water comes in August and September and flows down stream, clings to the banks of the river. The proposed intake will be built at leave 500 feet from the edge of the water and will directly from the current of the river."
The Stafford County Club will meet Wednesday evening at 7:30 o'clock in Room 205, Fraser Hall. All Stafford County students are urged to be present. Officers for the year will be elected.
Myrl Hart, President
The purchase of a ticket to this year's University Concert Course will be a wise investment.
Music is making strides in America and the knowledge and appreciation of great music is nowadays as important for a college man or woman with great literature.
The Course therefore offers an unusual opportunity for education and enjoyment and description of the entire student body.

University Hospital Ready to Give Inoculations
DOCTORS URGE VACCINATION
The doctors and nurses at the University Hospital, are now in readiness to inoculate and vaccinate all from typhoid fever and smallpox.
Every student is urged to take these precautions. The hospital will charge for treatment of all students who have an attack of either typhoid or smallpox if the student has not been inoculated or vaccinated.
Dr. E. Smith of the University Hospital says that it is also advisable for every student who has not had his appendix removed, to write home to his parents or guardians to find out just what they wish him to do in case of an attack of appendicitis.
The staff of the University Hospital will perform an operation for appendicitis upon any student who is it free of charge to the student.
Last year there was unnecessary delay in several cases where the student in urgent need of an operation, had first to write home for permission. Such delay often means a longer period of suffering for the patient and also a longer sojourn in the hospital.
Johnson Car Over Embankment.
An attempt to start his Ford sedan without unlocking the Decker wheel lock caused Prof. F. Ellis Johnson, of the department of electrical engineering, to go over the embankment in front of the engineering building in Palm Beach.

IT'S OLD FASHIONED SPORTS
New York Kiddies Adopting
Them Now
New York, Sept. 25 (United Press) "Back to the old-fashioned sports" bids fair to become the most popular saga among the kiddies this year.
First, it was marble shooting championships, then came the anatomy games and getting ready to challenge all comes at the aged game of manipulating a handful of jackets and a three cent model rubber ball. Now we have thirteen-year-old Clifford St. Hill, Woodhaven, N. Y., with the gold medal he won a few days ago from 1999 other boys of the Boy Scout camps on Kanohnwanke Lakes by outwheeling them on a tin harmonica. Then, in August, we had a credit with initiating the isolated marble contests. Not long ago they put "Buster" Rech down on the blue ribbon list by making him known all over the country as "Marble Shooting champion." They now have 3,000 girls ready to enter the competition to select the New Jersey state champion, who, when they are matched the best from other parts of his country.
The tournament now starting will last two weeks and will be open to ill girls under fifteen.
"Girls are forgetting the old-fashioned games," Park Commissioner Moore declared in announcing the jack contest. "You see them in the city playgrounds playing baseball and basketball just like the boys. The marble contest got our lads to realize that the good old game of mingles was pretty fine after all, and they are playing marbles a great deal now." He added that he wanted for boys. The game is wholesome and invigorating and I believe will rival in interest the matches we put on for the boys."
Baptist School Sends Missionaries

Barrick, students last term at the university, has been selected to serve on a new missionary will sail as soon as passports can be provided, according to the announcement.

WILL CREDIT EACH SOLDIER
Battle Participation Board to Review All Records
Washington, Sept. 25, (U.P.,) — The War Department has determined that the individual soldier in the World War shall receive credit for his battle service. To this end it has instituted a battle participation board that is reviewing the records of every "outfit" that went to France, to determine finally what actions against the Germans they took part in.
Stowed away in a corner of the enormous building that houses the records of the American Expeditionary Forces here, the Board is plugging away at its task. A lie depends upon it, its members say, for if "Private O'Mulligan, 098345," was in the St. Hilmy offensive and the records have him wrong, who can say to what indignities O'Mulligan's descendants a hundred years from now may have to suffer from this incarcacy. Acres and acres of records, piled high in eight-winged building, is the stockroom Board. Records of every individual that reached France; records of every outfit that ever got off a transport, are there.
The system is this: When a soldier applies for a medal, the Board gets to work and determines what action the Umpisth participated in. Private Giannoccolo's personal record is then searched by another department to see if he was with the Umpisth at the time it was engaged. If so, he is called up. The Board has his medal for the actions which the Board has decided the Umpisth took part in. The Board's decision becomes a history.
The policy of the Board is liberal, its members say. Each one of them, a total of four, saw days and days of active front-line service and they are disposed to give every soldier full credit for participating in an engagement even if he only heard a gun fired.
