MEMORIAL CAMPAIGN TO CLOSE BY JUNE
Memorial Workers Report Four teen Salt Lake Alumni Give $14,060
MUST STILL GET $200,000
Organizing Remaining Kansas Counties and Cities Not Yet Reached
The Memorial Campaign is progressing very well throughout the country according to campaign committee. An effort is being made by the workers to close up all the campaigns in the cities where they have been started, and to visit a few places where there has been no organization before June 1. The goal for the millions is still more than $200,000 away.
A telegram was received yesterday by Alfred G. Hill, secretary of the Memorial Corporation from Henry McCurdry, stating that John A. Rust, A.B.73, has been appointed the chairman of the Denver campaign. The campaign dinner will be given in the Colorado capital soon.
In Salt Lake city where Henry McCurdy, memorial worker, was last week, $14,000 was pledged. Of this total there were only fourteen contributors. Salt Lake city has a number of University of Kansas people who work at the campus of the drives, and have been waiting their chance to subscribe.
John Porter is in Chicago this week, and he writes Mr. Hill that the campaign is coming along fine there. Five thousand and five dollars have been raised, but only 10 percent of the prospects seen. Henry Schott, a former student of the University and Frank Ellis, p18, have charge of the campaign in Chicago. Porter will work in Detroit and Ann Arbor, start campaigns there before returning home.
Basil Church is in Weihita this week and he announces that about eight hundred dollars additional pledge have been received. Church will work in Fort Scott and Paula next week, to up the campaigns in those towns.
The new man who will help with bringing the drives to a close, Chas. H. Glesson, has been sick the first part of last week, but is now at Kingman, Kansas, beginning a drive there.
Other Kansas state where campaigns will be started immediately are: Crawford, Franklin, Anderson, Allen, Nooshe, Harvey and Washington. The counties which will be completed soon are: Miami, Cherokee, Montgomery, Jefferson, La贝特, Montgomery, Wilson Marshall Clond and Sedgewick.

Chancellor Will Talk To Vocational Students
Chancellor E. H. Lindley will speak to vocational men and their wives in the Little Theatre in Green Hall, Thursday at 4:30 o'clock, it was announced this morning by Dean John R. Dyer, who has charge of vocational affairs at the University. H. S. Jacks, supervising officer for the United States Veterans Bureau, will also speak at the meeting.

DISABLED VETERANS TALKED
Asked For Co-operation From Business Men
Harry Robbins, commander, and Erret T. Serviener, vice-commander of Jayhawk Chapter of the Disabled American Veterans of the World War, will be a keynote speaker at luncheon of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce and proposed that the business men of Lawrence co-operate with the United States Veterans' Bureau in giving training training under government supervision.
This was the local beginning of the "Hire a Veteran" campaign sponsored by the Disabled Veterans and other ex-service organizations. V. K. Bruner, president of the Chamber of Commerce, appointed a committee consisting of Max Klein, Craig Kennedy and D. Decker to offer guidance at Jayhawk Chapter. The matter will be further discussed at a special meeting in the Chamber of Commerce rooms Thursday night at 8 o'clock.
The Veterans' Bureau has, since the war, been training vocationally handicapped former service men in various vocations, and on completion of their training has been given "placement training," which is merely a continuation of their schoolwork. The training is for two, three, or six months, and if the employer is satisfied he is expected to hire the man.
Lost Rebel Stronghold Fordsburg Is Captured
Johannesburg, March 15—Government troops have captured Forsirkshire, the lost rebel stronghold, it was officially announced today. After an intensive bombardment of an hour and a quarter, the insurrectionists capitulated and the troops entered the town, taking hundreds of prisoners.
The fall of Fordsburg marks the end of the rebellion, brought about by the three months' coal miners' strike. There still remains scattered bands to be rounded up, but the Smuts government is now in complete control of the affected areas in the vicinity of Johannesburg.
Dr. E. H. S. Bailey has received so many requests for copies of a pamphlet which it has issued last December that it has been found necessary to ask for extra copies from a number of sources, including the State Board of rescued copies. The pamphlet is entitled "Dietary Study of the Kansas Institutions under the Control of the State Board of Administration," and is a study of the food supplies which are essential to the communities with a view of determining the quality and quantity of the food.

Drinking Ale in Taverns Took Place of Modern Tea Dances In the 12th Century College
Students in the University of Kansae are indeed fortunate not to have lived in the 12th century and attended the University of Oxford. Tea dances, house rules, date rules and the other modern paraphenalia that makes up the college education of today, were unknown then, according to Cheney's "Readings in English History."
A student could attend the University for twenty-five cents a week and no one could have special dishes at the meal hours. There were no study hours because everything was given because books were too extensive.
several colleges were founded at the beginning and the course offered were different from the modern college or university as engineering, law, liberal arts were taught in the same college.
Long hair, soup-bowled, streamline and feather-edged hair cuts were out of style as each student had his
head torsured by having a small part of his head shaved on the top. All students were taught Latin as an outgrowth of their school, students who slew people or committed crimes were often spared by speaking Latin, thus causing their cases to be thrown into the Ecclesiastical jurisdiction, and completed of crimes but once a year.
If a student wanted to borrow money to continue his study in the University he had to petition the faculty and was usually granted forty shillings or in our own money $10.00 and then he had to pray for the students' degrees received by the students the greater the amount of credit extended.
The Kansas City Alumni of Phi Duncan of Kansas City acted as Chi, professional medical fraternity, toast-master. Other speakers were entertained the K. U. chapter with a Drs. Wedding Mart, McKinnon, Robbins-Hawkins, and Cavanna, and Cavanna's K. U. Saturday evening. Dr. Kansas City.
The students perhaps did not have their tea dances but as the greater number of them were housed in imns and taverns, it is doubles, that much ale was consumed and perhaps here were students in the modern college yell originated.
These conditions, so familiar to students, are ideal for weakening the eyes. Subject to this strain, eyes however strong, have a natural tendency to weaken.
