CHANCELLOR PRAISES A DEMOCRATIC SPIRIT
University Head Counsels Upper classmen And Gives Advice To Freshmen
2,500 STUDENTS ATTEND
Explains Reasons For More Stringent Rules In Selecting Students
Addressing 2500 students in the first convocation of the new school year, Chancellor E. H. Lindley sounded the spirit of the University—democracy. Following out the custom of former years the chancellor offered advice to the incoming freshmen, counselled the upperclassmen to keep the spirit of Kannas, and promised the co-operation of the entire faculty
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY, SEPT. 15, 1922.
"I trust that you share with the faculty the feeling that we have had very auspicious beginnings for the new year," declared the chancellor. "This spirit is reflected in the past two years, which have shown that the University of Kansas takes itself and its obligations seriously at times than we do. For now we know its possibilities and its functions."
Demonstrating the fact that the University's responsibilities have passed beyond the theoretical, Chancellor Lindley spoke of the new scientific measurements of human ability, which show that the superior men to whom we look for leadership number 12 only per 20 of the total numbers
"The University is designed to train for the more complex tasks of civilization, and its training is futile and expenditures for it useless if it is applied to other than the 12 percent," said the chancellor. He spoke briefly of the principle of selection practiced last year in the University, which was intended for this year, but was designed to enable the University to furnish leadership for Kansas which will not be experimental, but real.
"We have here an aristocracy, which is not the result of accident of birth, superficial advantages, mere wealth," continued the chancellor. "It is an aristocracy arising from the realized possibilities of its members."
Urging the freshmen to hold to their idealism and their high hopes, the chancellor assured them that if they would face each problem of each day, they would spend thirty days, and consider the experience merely the winnowing and testing of character, that they would come out all right at the end of the year.
AGGIES FACE HARD SCHEDULE
Speaking briefly of concrete problems Chancellor Lindley requested that the students control their "boundaries and hope as regards bank balances."
The customary opening exercises preceded the chancellor's address. Professor Louis Miller of the School of Fine Arts sang two solos which were well received. Announcements were made with regard to the annual all-University party in Robinson Gymnasium Saturday evening, and the University Concert Course, which will furnish eight numbers this year.
But at That, The Manhattanites Are Confident
Manhattan, Kans, Sept. 15. (United Press)—The Kannas Agnies are facing one of the most difficult schedules in their history, but with the ample supply of good material, Coach Bill McCormick will win with a long string of victories.
Fifty candidates, including twelve letter men will make the fight for the varsity team. In addition to the letter men will make the fight for from last year and nearly twenty ex-letter men will content for regular positions.
The initial contest is with Washburn October 17, then comes Oklahoma University, Missouri University University and Nebraska University.
A number of University Masons were entertained with a smoker last night by the Lawrence Shrine Club in the club's rooms via the Rutherford garage. The evening was spent in having various forms of entertainment.
U. S. Government offers $10,000 per year to one hundred freshmen Chance to earn scholarships during Junior and Senior years for three hours work per week, freshman year. Two trips to coast during summer. If interested ininfluence of Major H. D. Burdick, Robinson Gym. - advs816
Fine Arts School Needs Several Practice Room
Owing to the large enrollment and o the fact that the School of Fine Arts had to give up two of its practice rooms for entrance to the building while the new part of the building is being erected, it is again in need of practice rooms for its students.
It would, therefore, be a favor to the School of Fine Arts if those having plans for rent for rooms in their homes and leave their addresses and telephone numbers.
FESTIVITY TOMORROW NIGHT FOR STUDENTS
Faculty Will Also be There to Get Acquainted And Hear Program
Robinson Gymnasium will be the scene of student festivity tomorrow night from 8 o'clock until 12. This is the night of the first All-University party. The party is for the purpose of giving the faculty as well as student members a chance to get mequened. This is an annual affair for the University and has always been popular among the students.
Prof. F. P. O'Brien, of the School of Education, is in charge of the entertainment and has promised that it will be well worth every one's time to come. A musical program consisting of vocal and instrumental selections will be vendered by members of the school's choir. The prominent entertainers have been obtained but their names will be withheld until tomorrow night.
Refreshments are assured but the quantity is not known. Professor O'Brien promises though that they will make sure everything is made on the map.
Last year an informal dance was held after the party, but this year the community asked for a dance to be performed at the dance. These plans may be altered to suit the occasion.
but such is the program at the present time. If a舞ance is held it will not be the main feature of the evening.
EX-KAISER DEMANDING PAY
Berlin (By mail to United Press):
—The Hobbenolzen attempt to retain their German properties, their pensions and war benefits, and their requests for additional concessions from the Republican government have thoroughly aroused the German Socialist press.
The radical press points out that the ex-kaiser, while demanding his properties and pensions practically in their entirety, has to date paid not one cent of taxes to the German republic government, which is already well in its footing. It is charged with his colony's debt and his pensions and gratuities which run into the hundreds of millions of marks.
"Where is there another nation who would permit such a condition?" asked one paper which listed 53 distinct pieces of German property demanded by the kaiser and from which he asks the complete income.
Three former princes have just recently filed applications with the Pension Bureau for gratuities from the government of Hohenzell, where he has moved from Meiningen, Prince Osak of Prussia and Crown Prince Ruprecht of Bavaria. These applications brought forth the information that many Hohenzollers, their relatives and hangers-on have for years been filing applications from the government as pensions.
Prince Joachim Albrecht of Prussia, who created a scene after the war in the Hotel Adlon when French guests refused to stand and satuate the German song "Beichland Uber Ober" is named as one of the characters of the government.
big graduates from Harvard Albrecht, the radical press charges was never injured in war.

The churches of Lawrence are at firing much in the way of entertainments, programs, and get acquainted parties for the week end. Each of them is forced to offer a dinner or a reception for Friday evening, September 15.
"It is our aim to get all students out to some reception tonight," said Rev. S. S. Klyne, of the First Methodist Episcopal Church. "Regardless of creed each one is welcome and church he may harm to choose."
New features of the mids are in part: A ladies program especially prepared for students at the Pressbury Church; a contest party at the Plymouth Congregational Parish House; a "help yourself" food at the Lutheran Church; and various other great many surprises and unique schemes for entertainment of the new students are being worked out.
Going to the mixers places no obligation on the student except that he or she must have a good time. The various committees have arranged so that there need not be a dull moment at any of the mixers.
The present list is incomplete due to the fact that it was impossible to set in touch with all the churches.
Special invitations to Sunday services are issued to all the students by the various churches of Lawrence. Although a large number of students attended some church regularly last year, every effort will be made to greatly increase the attendance for the coming year.

SPEED KINGS TO DASH FOR K.C.RACE PRIZES
Many University students are planning to attend the dedication of Kansas City's new $500,000 motor speedway tomorrow, where fifteen kings of the automobile racing world will make a mud dash for a new world's speed record. Between 60,000 and 70,000 persons are expected to swarm into the big bowl for the international classic.
Many Students Will Attend International Auto Classic Tomorrow
The speed classic is being held under the auspices of the American Legion, which will participate in the process collected for admiration. Harvard MacKinley, national commander of the Legion, will be the principal speaker at the dedicatory ceremonies before the races. Governor Henry J. Roberts, former Arthur M. Hye of Missouri, were scheduled to make addresses also.
The three hundred mile whirl, over a mile and a quarter board track, will be for purses totalling $30,000, the winner's share to be $10,000. Jimmy Murphy, 1922 speed king, is the favorite to capture the inaugural event. Driving his Murphy Special, which won honors at the Indianapolis speedway this year, Murphy is the first to record a record. Builders of the track assert a speed of 120 miles an hour can be attained.
But Murphy will have no easy walk away. Tommy Milton, 1921 A. A. A. Champion; Harry Hartz, Murphy's runner-up at Indianapolis; and Eddie Hearn, third in the Indianapolis event, will crowd Murphy for honors. Bennett Hill, a fast Pacific coast driver, and Cliff Durant, millionaire auto manufacturer, will also enter the race.
Eddie Rickenbach, premier American ice and former champion auto race, will referee the event. Barney Burrows, a pace-maker, will speed king, will be the pace-maker.
GIRLS GET LESS CANDY NOW
Oklahoma City, Sept. 15. (Unite Press.)—The ardent lover still keeps his sweet heart supplied with candy but the idea of young men taking a box of candy very time they call upon some fair damsel, is losing folowers, according to local confectioners.
Ardent Swains no Longer Take Boxes With Each Call
"These jelly-belly guys rarely ever buy any candy, except probably a quarter's worth for themselves," the customers said in answer to a query.
The men continue to buy cany extravagantly, but they do not buy as often as in former years, the confectioners said.
It los surprising, the confectioners said, how many married men have candy sent out, or take candy out to their wives, regularly. And several of the local confectioners have regular customers who send their mothers and sisters boxes of candy, they said.
Men are better candy customers than women, it was pointed out, as women, although they buy as often as men, and more conservatively than the men.
All freshmen must, except football men, attend physical training classes, which will start Monday. Arrangements for physical examinations should be made as soon as possible, at Northwestern. www.105

STATE BOARD REJECTS ALL K.U. LIBRARY BIDS
NEXT MOVE NOT DECIDED
Plans May Be Altered Or Ad
ditional Money May
Be Asked
All bids for the new K. U. library building were rejected yesterday by the State Board of Administration at a meeting held in Topeka. The lowest bid for the new building was $88,000 too high. It could not be met with the next step of the University officials will be in his mutter.
There seems to be two ways open for the State Board. One way is to alter the plans for the library to such an extent that the contractors' bids will come into play. The other way is set by the unit legislature. The other way is for the University officials to go before the next session of the legislature and ask for an additional $7,000 or $100,000 to put up the kind of building which
The library bids were to have been let during the early part of last summer, but due to a hold up in the mills.
the bids were not opened until the meeting yesterday. Chancellor Lindley attended the State Board meeting and wrote his address at the fair ground.
R. A. Gamble, the state architect, is in town today inspecting the work on the women's dormitories being built on North College Hill, and it is thought he will confer with Chancellor Lindley, and F. J. Kelly, dean of administration, concerning the library plans while here.
During this last summer the bids for the addition to the Administration Building were found to be too high, but later the plans were altered sufficiently to allow the contractors to bid within the appropriation.
The new library is to be situated just west of the Journalism Building, and will fit so close that structure can be seen on the west of the Journalism Building will have to be removed. The library will be somewhat hidden by Snow Hall, but as Snow is condemden and will eventually be removed, the new library will have a very pretty situation.
IT'S INCOME TAX TIME NOW
Third Installment of 1921 Levy is Due Today
Students who are bothered with the payment of income tax—if there are any—and faculty members who are afflicted in the same manner, must be admitted. H. M. Motter, collector of internal revenue for the Wichita district.
The third quarterly installment of the income tax for 1921 is due on or before midnight today (Sept. 15).

The tax may be paid at the office of Collector, Wichita, Kansas, or the following branch offices: Salina, Tepaars, Parsons and Kansas City, Kansas. Payment may be made by cash, money order or check. If made at a branch office, payment should be by check or money order to avoid danger
of loss in transmissio to the office of the Collector. Checks or money orders should be made out to order within the Internal Revenue, Wichita, Kansas.
First Oread Magazine to Be Out In November
With an undeniably successful year of publication of the Oread Magazine just finished, the Quill Club and Pen and College club, senior and junior literary societies of the University respectively and collaborators in the publication of the Hill's only exclusively literary magazine, are making plans for the biggest year the magazine has ever experienced.
With the advent of new members into Pen and Scroll, a wealth of news and extraordinarily good material promises to be turned to in the editor of the first issue, together with other contributors. In addition, the editors will invite the entire University to contribute as it has done in the past.

Cotton Growers Form A Union in Oklahoma
Oklahoma City, Sept. 15 (UNited Press)—Arrangements have been made P press)—Arrangements a ha we been made for an eight million dollar loan to Oklahoma State University Association, which will guarantee orderly marketing of the 1922 cotton crop of the association's 36,000 members, according to C. L. Stealer, general manager.
"Channels have been opened up the New York, St. Louis and other points, which will enable us to obtain practically unlimited funds with which to finance the marketing of the crop this year," Stanley said. "The loans, obtained at a rate of interest lower than the government, will be in addition to the $60,000,000 loan approved by the war finance corporation."
HUGE THRONG HEARS K. U. FAIR PROGRAM
The association has already begun receiving the new crop. An advance price of 12 cents per pound is being paid the farmers. Additional payments are to be made as the cotton is sold at higher prices.
Officials Estimate Yesterday's Free Fair Crowd at 75,000 Persons
DR. E. H. LINDLEY SPOKE
Giant Amplifiers Spread University Speeches and Songs to All
One of the largest crowds ever seen in Topeka listened to Chancellor E. H. Lindley's address at the Kansas Free Fair yesterday. Phil Eastman, secretary of the fair, estimated the throng on the grounds at 75,000. He was present in the presentation of the K. U. program just as it has been used in the fair program all this week. This machine amplifies the human voice about 6,000 times, and allows every one in the grandstands to hear the talks and music. This is a married improvement over the old days when the seats next to the speaker's box could hear the program plainly.
It has been pointed out by the officials of the fair that the radius of caring the programa given through he amplifier would not be limited a grandstand, but could easily be roadcased to the farther corners for use not for the size made by the various shows and occasions in the park.
Chancellor Jindley spoke concerning the value of an education in present day life, and Harold G. Ingham, director of the University Extension Division, who also made a short talk at the fair, declared that the clerics were preoccupied with speeches he had ever heard him present. Dr. Lindley's was a portion of the K. U. program arranged by Alfred G. Hill, alumni secretary. The University program was opened by the playing of a photograph record. The chancellor's address came once more, and he presented his work to the audience. He informed the chance for success of a needed man.
"The boy or girl who graduates from high school," Chancellor Lindley said, "increases eighty times his or her chance for success in life. The graduate of a standard college has eightes a better chance for success."
Dr. Lindley emphasized the argument that the coming generation needs to be well educated for the increasingly complex life of this age. He referred to the children of today as the most precious crop in Kansas, and then pointed out that cultivation is one half the crop.
The fair ground throng received the chancellor's address enthusiastically as it did the talk given by Mr. Ingham, and the K. U. songs. Dean Butler of the School of Fine Arts sang two numbers one of which was "I'm a' Jayahw," and I. E. Henry, K. A. uLumus, presented the "Grimson and the Blue" for the approval of the crowd in the grandstand
DIRECTORY OUT OCTOBER 1
Data For Student Book Already Being Compiled
The official student directory of the University, giving the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of the students, faculty, and employees of the University, is being compiled and will be off the press about October 1, according to Registrar Geo. Foster.
