CAMPUS CUSTOMS CHANGE
Junior Proms of the Old Days Were Always Formal Affairs
"Backward O backward time in thby flight, make me a boy again just for toni ht." Thus the old grad of the days of 1902 would be sigh to sigh if be were to compare the K. U. of 1923 and the K. U. of 1923. The modern Rip Winn Vanik, fast aspen for twen, years as far as an oak, would be asked, "Where would you feel almost like returning to his previous state of comm.
Though the physical changes in the campus itself have been many, still greater and more varied are the changes in the customs and the clothing of the college youth of today and yesterday.
Tight, light-colored trousers, a "cutaway" coat, a deby, and a heavy mustache were considered indispensable in the mid-1920s for the drudgery of the "coke eater" of 1902.
To have a "date" twenty years ago is to enjoy a far greater pleasure than today. The K. U. of 1902 was not burdened with bothersome "date rules" and expenses were very slight, an occasional "oyster stew" at "Billy Widman's house" is a rare and exotic experience; one of two things, either to stay at home and peruse the family photograph album or to go for a "buggy ride." Tales which bachelor uncle love to tell but which fathers flatly deny are based on long rides alone lonely campus le-ways with the lady riding in horse, the robe being tied firmly about the whip-stick of the carriage.
Parties in 1092 and thereabouts were few and far between. No one ever dreamed of the weekly Varsity dance. Two dances yearly were enough for anybody. Those parties when they took place late were at 1011 was a 6:00 p. m. to 3:00 a. m. party, and was a always a formal affair. The "Greek letter" men of these earlier days tell tales of farewell parties which started at 6:00 o'clock in the evening and ended with "hake"rd ice. The singer of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon house now stands to witness the sunrise.
Ku Klux Klan Officials Deny Raid at Inglewood
Los Angeles, April 27—Warrants for the arrest of scores of supposed members of the Ku Klux Klan were reported to be in preparation here today as the district attorney's staff scanned the official membership roster and the list of leaders of Los Angeles County.

Plans to summon Colonel William Joseph Simmons, Imperial Wizard of the Klan here from Attack Day investigations of night riders' activities being made today in District Attorney Wolwine's office.
Local Ku Klux Klan officials have already denied the Sunday had anything to do with the white-caps' raid at Inglewood last Sunday in which one man was killed and two wounded. Simmons in telegrams received here declared he was investigating the Inglewood affair.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION
TAUGHT THIS SUMMER
Bible School Beginning June 12
Will Continue For Six
Weeks
The Board of Religious Education, composed of S. S. Kleye, E. F. Price, Forrest Whitcraft, A. J. Murphy, Dean F. J. Kelly, Dean R. A. Kent and Supt H. P. Smith, has met several recently, recently complaining plans for the Vacation Bible School to be held in Lawrence this summer.
The Bible School will begin June 12, and run for six weeks, five days in the week and from two to three hours a day according to the age of the pupil. The areas to be included are those children from kindergarten up to high school age, including junior high school. School buildings will be around 8:30 a.m. and children will be 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. The classes will be distributed to different parts of the city according to the students enrolled.
Teachers in the school will be those who have had previous experience and will be paid a small sum for their services. All teachers will be passed on by the directing board. A good part of the work will be similar to Junior Church, Bible Stories being taught according to grades. The work of the school will also include handwork, conditioning, hockey, hackery, carpentry, and woodworking to train the child for efficient citizenship and leadership as he grows older, and to gradually develop his personality in a natural way.
There will be no tuition charged the pupils and the school is absolutely non-dominational. It is being backed and supported by the churches and the teachers, and the mitte will have blanks prepared which will be filled out by the parents who are interested in having their children attend such a school and in this way the Board hopes to give the number of children who will attend.
This Vacation Bible School will be of interest to University people, due to the fact that on June 19, 20, and July 3, 2024 the School of Religion, is holding a
conference on Religious Education. This will be in University buildings and take on a form similar to other University short-course schools.
COMMITTEE TO MAKE SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS
Thirty Students Make Application While Only Seventeen Are Offered
The scholarship committee, under Dr. Eugene Gallo, of the department of Romance languages, is in a quandary just among the thirty who have applied, are most worthy of being granted a scholarship for the coming year, according to a report from a member of the faculty last Tuesday night.
The purpose of the meeting, according to Dr. Galloo, is to award the seventeen scholarships to worthy students, but when thirty applications were read and considered, the committee decided that further investigation of claims should be made before the awards were made. Another committee decision may also be it is hoped that a decision will be reached at that time.
The scholarships, according to members of the committee, are offered each year by individuals, organizations such as the W. S. G. A. and various women's clubs, with the purpose in mind of assisting needy students through the school year. With thirty applications, and only seventen scholarships to be awarded, it is evident that many, who are no doubt worthy of the help, will have to be refused, according to George O.
Mr. Foster has suggested that religious and other organizations, who have money to put into a worthy enterprise, could do no better than offer a year's scholarship. Their ammunition is being given, being gift donations, while others are loans to the student, to be paid back after graduation.
He will enter the Graduate School of the University of Chicago and spend the summer quarter furthering his work in building up his work at Emporia next fall.

Professors and Students Alike Hear "the Call of the Mashie And Gambol Daily on the Turf
An automobile rolls slowly down the streets of the student district, horn blowing loudly. Juvenile professor shouldering golf bags appear as if by magic and the car loaded with balloons. "call of the mall" has been heard.

To put a convolution in a student's brain is usually a year's job in itself. No wonder then that the exasperated professor rests from his labors and plows up the golf links and gleefully "please replace the turf." Thus some explain the fact that the thirty or more professors work at the "cow pasture pastime." Golf is a great stimulant for jaded nerves. From this idea may spring the popularity of the game enjoyers among the faculty.

There are forty such who have prostrated themselves at the thrones of King Golf and enjoy the privileges that a membership in the Lawn Country Club in Riverside allows golf teams are prevalent on the campus. Who knows? A few more years may see the awarding of golf letters here.
The student who sees his professor sitting at his classroom desk, leaning back in his swivel chair, his eyes half closed and tapping his pencil gently on the desk, may thrill in unrest. He will look down at his intellect, little guessing that in reality that age's thoughts are wandering retrospectively and at the same time anticipating, to the green swords of the Compass where in his mind's eye his scholarly the jumping sod of the golf links.
Pay $25.00 at Least for a Dependable Wrist Watch
To pay less than five-dollar fees for a woman's *q* id filled vest watch is to possess a timepiece of *w* owntimer merit, in which you can but take doubtful pride.
If a watch this small is to be a dependable timekeeper, its delicately adjusted pinions, springs and years must be the products of the woundcraft apprentices. You can be encountered among the very low priced watches.
The beautiful moderately priced Green Wrist Watch pictured here is a product of the finest watchmaking of today. It is a sturdy, practical timekeeper, and its watch design was designed to gratify the most exotic taste.
