INSUFFICIENT VOTING KILLS YEARBOOK PLAN
Rules of Student Councils Provides a Quorum Shall
According to the provisions of the constitutions both of the men's and the women's student councils, the new plan voted upon Thursday for the management of the Jay-hawker by the two councils and an advisory board, was definitely defended. Only 405 men voted, and only 10 percent of the assembly for the amendment, ninety-one against it. Ninety-eight women were in favor of the proposed plan, two cast negative votes. A quorum of the student body was not represented in either case.
"Lack of interest, due to the fact that everyone considered the plan would be accepted, and so did the students," said the low numbers of those vetted," said Ed White, president of the men's student council, today. "It is a great pitch that more did not come out to express their belief in the plan."
"Our constitution definitely states that a quorum of all the members of the Women's Student Association must include all the women of the University, must cast their votes. The quorum is set at one-sixth of the members. There are 1300 women enrolled in the University. The whole matter will have to be brought up again before the student body, and a new committee. The X-ray council, Article III on amendments, states:
"Amendments to this constitution may be made when proposed by a two-thirds vote of all the members of the Assembly, and it is regularly called mass meeting."
"In the past all proposed amendments have been voted upon by ballot and the result decided by counting the votes of those voting; a two-third vote in favor of carrying the question" said White.
Article XIV, section 2 of the women's constitution, follows:
A three-fourths majority of all members of the Association voting shall be required for adoption, allowing the number voted for the amendment constitutes the necessary quorum (one-sixth of the members.)

EDUCATIONAL SURVEY BY GRADUATE STUDENT
Riley Investigating Relation Between Intelligence and Per Cent of Indian Blood
The relation between intelligence and the per cent of Indian blood of the students of Haskell Institute is one of the things that Robert M. Bley, a graduate student of the School of Education is investigating in an educational survey of Haskell Institute.
In his report to the seminar for education students yesterday, Mr. Niley said that the chief aim of his survey was the declassification of the pupils with reference to age, grade, and educational progress.
Regarding the relation of intelligence to per centage of Indian blood, Mr. Eiley said that the data he has thus far collected would seem to indicate that children of *Indian* blood have a higher quota of intelligence. A similar conclusion was reached in a study made by Mise Elsom-Estermeyer, a graduate student at the university, in 1920. Mase elsom's investigation, and hopes to have more conclusive results.

The Chancellor told of the stupid psychology of the Germans—the reason they lost the war. And the Chancellor said he knew the Germans were wrong, but he had tended that science with them in their own country.
Chancellor Lindley talked on the subject of "One hundred per cent Americanism," and declared that he doubled if any person was really a full fledged one hundred per cent American. His reason for making this statement was, he said, that "Americans are proud and belyed the best sort of American" they know how; nevertheless, the one hundred per cent oil is difficult.
hundred per cent goal is difficult to reach.
serted that the value of a liberal education can not be estimated.
"There are many who are graduated from institutions of learning each year," said Chancellor Lindley, "and they think they are educated. Some of them are; some of them are not. The test is whether they can go back to their own communities, if necessary, and strive for the betterment of conditions there, instead of drifting off to some larger place where the opportunities are supposed to be greater."
