Play "Julius Caesar" In Fraser Chapel Tonight
Delegates to the sixteenth annual meeting of the Classical Association which is being held here April 2-3-29 will have a chance to see one of the most interesting pictures ever fanned along their particular line of interest.
Tonight in Fraser Chapel at 10 o'clock the University Extension Division will show free of charge the film classic, "Julius Caesar", featured as *Covell as Caeasar*, who bears a striking likeness to that noted Roman orator.
The picture is correct to the smallest detail in showing the customs, dress, art, and military science of Romans at that time. He was filmed by the director and the life of Caesar from his twentieth birthday in 80 B. C. to his death. The last scene which shows the whole city of Rome aflame after the murder of Caesar is said to have no equal magnificence in the realm of film-mount.
SOCIALIST LEADERS TO PLAN CAMPAIGN
Eugene Debs May Again Assume Active Leadership of Party
Cleveland, April 28. —United Press—
Socialist party leaders of America will gather here tomorrow and Sunday to map out battle plans for the coming state and congressional elections and changes in the party's platform.
Special significance attached to the meeting, for it is expected Eugene Debs, many times the party's candidate for the presidency, again will assume active leadership. Since his pardon from federal prison by President Harding, Debs has been resting at his home in Terre Haute, Ind.
With Debs at the helm of the Socialist ship, party leaders will make strenuous efforts, particularly, to capture places in Congress at the November elections. Drives also will be waged in all state posts, it was announced by John Willert veteran leader here.
Little change will be made in the general program of the party. Willer believes. The soldiers bonus and the wet and dry issue, however, are expected to be up for discussion. Sides on these questions which are keeping the party cool will be taken by the party in the national convention, leaders forecast.
All states will be represented by delegates. Much of the business will be routine, clearing the decks for action two years hence—for the next presidential race. when Dobbs will be urged by many leaders to carry again the party's standard before the people of the nation.
Debs' action is conjectural. Though he declared recently he would resume active work with the party, it is probemotional whether he would consider making another try for the presidency, party representatives here he lives.
On the course follow d by Debs depends largely the work of the convention. One thing, however, is ass— The party will wage this year the most extensive campaign in its history to win votes. Speakers will tour the country, setting forth the party's policies.
Socialist ranks here are optimistic over the prospects.

STUDENT CONFERENCE OF UNIVERSITIES ENDS
"Andy" McDonald, President of Men's Student Council, Returns From Kentucky
COMMEND DAILY KANSAN
All Campus Problems Discussed By Delegates From Mid-West Schools
Andrew McDonald, president-elect of the Men's Student Council, has returned from the second annual Mid-West Student Conference of colleges and universities which was held at the University of Kentucky, April 20, 21.
Thirty-eight delegates representing twenty-seven schools in eighteen states of the middle-west were registered at the conference. They were all men who have taken an active part in the student government of their particular schools and were personally involved in student problems of the universities.
How the students are able to manage every activity of campus life came in for discussion. Publications, musicals and dramas, under-graduate works and presentations on the principal subjects of debate. A student leader expressed his opinions as to the solution of a problem and led in the general discussion which followed. Every university from North Dakota to Texas asked questions answered other than those of other students in attendance, on campus problems.
In the discussion of publications the daily or weekly school paper, the special publications such as the Sou Owl and Oread Magazine, and the year book, were all taken up. Most of the big schools have a Board of Control for all university publications, soms of which are incorporated. The business management, editorial staff, student and faculty control, were discharged roughly. The associate press service of the "big ten" was explained.
The private opinions of the leaders of the "big ten" seemed to be that the University Daily Kansan was undoubted. The United States has best of its kind in the United States.
The Kentucky hospitality is of the finest, according to "Andy." At the close of the session a trip was made to the birthplace of Henry Clay, and other points of interest around Lexington.
Quill Club, honorary literary society, met Thursday evening in the Fraser Hall rest room to plan a preinitiatory stunt to be given by its new nepedes. It was decided that the students would do a dramadramatica force on initiation day at Auguenta Rosenberg, senior in the college, read two original sketches.
"I left the conference," stated Andy McDonald, today, with the feeling that the University of Kansas is as well organized as any other school where he is a graduate. "I get away from his own school before he can appreciate its greatness."
EXIT THE VULGAR MOVIE
Normal School Professor Says It is Bound to Go
Terre Haute, Ind., April 28—"The movies will either be cleaned up by the people who are producing them, or they will be cleaned up by the people not producing them," asserts A. N. Hines, president of the Indiana Public Schools, in a statement given for publication to the Society of Visual Education.
"There is every indication that the vulgar movie will be compelled to go. Although the people are sometimes very slow in moving, when a great cause presents itself they ultimately do move."
The house mothers will meet Monday afternoon with Mrs. Young at the Sigma Na house.
Quill Club Plans Initiation
It has been frequently and fervently declared in recent months that,
als in Hollywood and "other movie towns", the vast majority of screen people are decent and respectable in private life. Dr. Hines does not despair.
maintains that this it not exactly the point. Personal character is undeniably important, but the picture itself, according to this educator, is the public's more immediate concern The failure of damage, he believes, is done by not putting pressure on reckless in their private lives, by those who, reckless or the reverse, consent to a part in placing vulgarities on the screen.
K. U. Delegates Will Attend National W.S.G.A
Kansas has but recently become a member of the Association, in which about thirty-five schools are represented. The local organization has created a custom of sending as delegates both the new and old presidents.
Orpha Harding, new president of W. S. G.契, and Dorothy Stanley, president for the past year, will leave tonight for Ithaca, N. Y., where they will attend the Middle Western Conference of the Intercollegiate State Department Association. The conference will be held there May 3, 4, and 5.
"I am sure that Kansas will receive some ideas which will be a real aid during the coming year," Miss Harding said today, 'as well giving some suggestions which may be of value to other schools."
SIX OLD GRADS BACK TO JOURNALISM FEED
Lansan Board Stages Annual
Banquet at Weideman's
Last Night
The news writers of the University celebrated last night at Wiedemann's with their annual festive spread. Everyone came, high and low to the number of sixty and everyone had a good time to the extent of much fun and laughter. Six old grads were present.
The banquet is a yearly affair given just after the election of new Kansan Board members each spring, at which time all the active students of the board, professors and wives, and alumni come together for a reunion. We'll tell about the good old days and of course we are doing out in the world and the undergraduate furnish the entertainment, hospitality, and receive advice.
The long banquet table was decorated in an unusual and clever manner. The centerpiece was comprised of a miniature heaver in which the
ated in an unusual and clever manner. The centerpiece was comprised of a miniature heaven in which the members of the Department of Journalism were shown seated around the room, each wearing their heads. At each end of the table, Corona typewriter from which streamers of black ribbon ran to the center. The place cards were tiny typewriters and the paper napkins were miniature Kansans. The menu was only printed in the style of an assignment sheet, and the news schedule comprised the program of toasts.
There were take-offs on everyone which were sung under the leadership of Margaret Larkin. Other music was furnished by an orchestra.
Besides the present members of the board and instructors in the department the following guests were present: Miss Emily Ferris, c 49, who has been a member since 1980; Flugg of the Kansas City Journal; Walter Herron and Morten Akers of the Kansas City Kansas; Floyd Hoekenhull of the Capper Publications of Topeka and Rail Runion of the edi- tional staff of the Kansas City Journal.

B. 20, and Ray Runnion, A. B. 21, under the title of "Alboe."
In her talk, Miss Rumberger told of the place the women are taking in the world today, and according to those present she gave the men a pretty touch "razing." Mr. Turner and Mr. Hudson answered her in part, but her arguments were unbelatable.
Paul Flagg, who is now reporting on the Kansas City Journal, gave the embryo journalists some sound advice. He declared that the gospel of the reporter should be to work hard and make friends. Floyd Hoehnhall Jr., who was the co-founder of The celebration ended with verse of the "Crimean and the Blue."
Choose Officers for MacDowell
Officers for next year were elected at the last regular meeting of MacDowell fraternity at the chamber house, 1713 Mississippi Street, last night. Fifty members were present. Those elected were: Jack Dickson, president; Irene Peabody, vice-president; Eddie Schruber, treasurer; Eddie Brazier, treasurer. Besides the election of officers, a mittee was appointed to plan a picnic which will be given before the close of the semester.
ASK SMALL DONATION FOR LOUVAIN LIBRARY
Was One of the First Towns Destroyed By Germans In War
The campaign for subscrip-tions to the Lovain Library fund, a nation-wide student movement, is to be held here Tuesday and Wednesday, at a place where they will be placed in all the buildings. Only the scripts are asked, a dime from each individual being sufficient. In France where subscrip-tions have been limited to a "sou." 200,000 francs are attributed by students it a few weeks.
The task of designing the library has been condivided by the Belgians to a firm of American architects, and the French to be one of the typical Flemish type. Catherine of this, says: "With a sense of delicacy which touched me deeply, you laid to one side your American ideals to follow our national ambitions, by recalling the earliest traditions of our Flemish and Brabantine art."
Louvain, situated near Brussels,
was one of the first of the Belgian
towns destroyed during the war, and
the privilege of rebuilding the Library
of the University of Louvain has been
claimed for the people of the United
States. The campaign is felt to be
of particular interest to students.
It is hoped by campaigners that every school, college, and university in the United States will have its eucalyptum hung upon the walls of the great assembly hall in memory of those of its sons who died or volunteered in the Great War. A successful campaign here will assure this University a place on the walls of the Louvain Library.

SIDE LIGHTS ON THE SCRAP
They washed the four egg splaters and five mud soops off and fixed the broken window. At noon it looked just like it did this time last week.
They say the Doctor is pretty active in one of these knock-down and drag-outs.
People over the state who read this morning's account of "dilapidated Green Hall" would be disappointed with its appearance this morning.
Farrell and Ness are out about a wheel apiece at the dry cleaners. Each man stopped one egg.
This "He-man" Bown from Kansas City must be a whiz. Ons of the engine boys is wearing an Alpha Tau crest just over his left eye that he got off the ring on the "He-man" K. O. mit.
One good thing—it gave the Lawa a chance to have an indignation meeting and get some of the hot air off their chests.
A resolution severing all relations with the School of Engineering was drawn up by the law students at a convocation held in Green Hall at 10:20 o'clock this morning.
DEAN DYER MAKING INVESTIGATION
In the Meanwhile, the Whole University is Awaiting the Outcome of the Worst Mount Oread Battle For Years
The convocation was called by L. W. Lundblade, president of the School of Law. Robert Lemon and George Gard were appointed as a committee to get the resolution into written form. The principal contents of the resolution is the severing of all relations with the engineering students, and is constructed to mean a refusal to participate in the annual Engineer-Law debate. A vote of thanks was extended to the law debaters for the work they have done in preparation for the verbal battle.

STUDY DEAN WALKER'S WORK
Engineers Use His Volume as Model For Reports
Engineering students, taking Rhetoric II this semester which covers the writing of technical reports, are studying as models three reports written by P. F. Walker, Professor of Industrial Engineering and Dean of the School of Engineering, and combined by him specially for rhetorical classes, in a little volume called "Industrial Research in the Middle West."
Dean Walker who is a specialist in Industrial Engineering has prepared many reports which have been published in the leading Engineering Journal and have been read by him before various gatherings of engineers.
The reports were chosen for the purpose of putting into the hands of engineering students' material which we have discussed in discussion of some of the problems in writing which confront the engineer in the practice of his profession, and are prepared for them the technique which employed in solving such problems.
The first report is entitled "The Need of Research in the Industrial Field." The other two papers are on "The Industrial Development in the Trans-Missouri Region" and "The Gasoline-From-Gas Industry."
In reference to the action taken by the students of the School] of Law this morning, Dean P. F. Walker of the school has told me that the law students are altogether too hasty in their action. It seems to me that they should have awaited the results of the investigation that is being conducted on by the University authorities."
John R. Dyer, dean of men, is carrying on an investigation in the name of the University. A conference was held with the heads of the two schools this will probably make a report to Chancellor E. H. Linden this evening.
When asked whether he thought the students of law were considering the mesee yesterday in too serious a light, Dean Walker declared that he had no further statement to make until the investigation was completed.
The following is the text of the resolution of the School of Law;
To the University of Kansas;
Kent Frohwein, president of the school of Engineering, when informed of the law students' resolution to take in regard to their action.
Resolved: that because of the affair in which the students of the Engineering School of the University of Kansas organized and entered the Kansas with resultant University of Kansas with resultant property, both public and private, which action we regard as detrimental to the interests of this University, we the members of the University of the University of Kansas, do hereby declare engineering School of the University of Kansas, our severance of inter-school relationship. That further, we the members of the School of Law do not this resolution to be construed as evidence against tamponion toward the Engineering School, but a means to mould a better spirit in this University.
that the reasons for the above interpretation are: that inter-school relationship in the past between the $two\_schools$ has caused a bitter enmity which is not constructive of true university spirit and that we believe that we must declare severance of all relations whatsoever will be a solution to the difficulty. We earnestly wish this resolution to be accepted with that idea:
Leon W. Lumblade, President,
Students Assn. of Law School.
George Gard.
Bob Lemmon.
Missouri Will Adopt the Two Semester Sessions
