"The Convalesence of Europe" the Subject of Talk This Afternoon
IS AUTHORITY ON POLITICS
Sent Out to Universities and Colleges by Council of Foreign Relations
Alfred E. Zimmerm, professor of International Politics of the University of Wales, will speak this afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in Fraser Chapel on the subject, "The Convalescence of Europe." His talk is an analysis of the economic and political factors making for the recovery of Europe.
Having spent the last year on the continent, Mr. Zimmern comes to the University of Kansas with a valuable knowledge of conditions existing in Europe at the present time. He is a recognized authority on world politics. The Council of Foreign Relations has given him advice on societies and colleges here in the United State to make addresses on questions of the day.
Mr. Zimmerman was formerly a fellow at Oxford. He gave up this work in 1903 in order to study at the British school at Athens. Following this he entered government service in the Army, and was sent to schools of the Worker's Educational Association. During the war he was first employed in the Registry of Reconstruction and later in the Political Intelligence department of the Foreign Office. In 1919, he took up a position in the International Politics in the University of Wales, which he held till 1921.
FEB. 15 IS DEADLINE ON 1922 JAYHAWKER
Set Date Early So Printer's Can Order Materials for
February is undoubtedly the "red letter" month of all the months of the year. Beginning with the first day of the month we have a red letter day—the first day of the new semester. Then comes Lincoln's birthday, January 15th. Day fourteenth; and Washington's birthday, the twenty-second.
But students who have not yet attended to purchasing their 1922 Jayhawkers have doubtless marked February as the date set for lines, that is the date set by the Jayhawkman management as the deadline for the sale of 1922 Jayhawkers, and also the date when all gloves of the day's organization must absolutely be in.
"If the students of the University don't make February 15 a red letter day, the Jayhawk will be in the red," was the editor, Cap Garvin's characteristic way of putting it this morning.
"The reason that we are forced to set February 15 as the absolute deadline," continued Mr. Garvin, "is that the printers must order paper and ink for the book as soon as possible, due to the tendency of print paper to rise in price. By enabling the printers to order soon we stand less chance of having to pay more for the stock."
The inks to be used in the printing of the 1922 Jayhawker are Sigmund Ullmars Doubletoe Inks, chemical dye and bright red dye. This undertone gives a rich color work effect. In drying the produce delicate undertones, and, at the same time, preserve all of the colors, and high lights of the picture.
New York Bishop Speaks At Convocation Frida

The Fellowship of Reconciliationization is active in its efforts to the wounds and gags caused between national leaders. The friend of Dean L. E. Sayre, will be his guest while visiting lawrence.

K. U. RANKS HIGH IN BEAUX-ARTS CONTEST
Compares Favorably With Carnegie Tech, Harvard, and Columbia
The University of Kansas ranks high on the list of contest schools in the recent content held by the American group of the Roux-Arta University, which oversees these contests, consisting of problems sent to the design and architecture departments of the various Universities of the United States are held five or six times yearly and much more than universities of both medals and mounts.
Because of the fact that heretofore Freshmen have not been admitted to the design classes, the University of Kansas has not recently received any medals of recognition. Many of the designs sent in have received "Mention," "First Mentor," and "Second Mentor." All three whole ranks with Carnegie Tech, Harvard University, Columbia, and even above Yale.
The etchings sent in are now on display on the third floor of the Engineering building and form a most attractive display. The subjects vary, such as a Suburban Restaurant, A Country Club, An Office Building, Entrance to a Club, and the like. The designs are painted in three colors: "B", "C" and "A". In the first class are the sophonores, the second, the juniors, and the "A" class the seniors and most advanced students.
K. U. Scottish Tenor Appeared First Time in K. C.
BRODIE FEATURED PROGRAM
John Brodie, c'23, who is well known on the Hill because of his clever interpretation of Scotch songs featured an attraction in Kansas for the Bobik Burns anniversary in the Shrine Temple, January 27.
John Bodie, who is attending the law school now is a veteran of the World War and was gassed while in action over there. It was thought for some time that he would lose his voice entirely but by care he regained the use of it. He has had various injuries and his imitation of Harry Launder in the Follies last year was one of the best things on the bill.
Mr. Brodie was assisted by Mr. Alex McCance, a Scottish historian who has just recently come over from Scotland.

BIG CROWD ATTENDED K SMOKER LAST NIGHT
Chancellor Lindley, Prof. Davis and Coaches Clark and Schideman Initiated
MAIN BOUT CALLED OFF
Another "K" Club Meeting Will Be Held Thurs-
day
More than 600 attended the smoker and initiation held by the "K" Club last night at the Fraternal Aid Union Hall, at 7:30 o'clock. Smokes were plentiful—so was gossip and entailment, according to those who attended.
Chancellor E. H. Lindley, Prof. W. Dauis, of the department of history, Coaches George "Potty" Clark, and Karl Schalidan, were initiated as honorary members, and each gave a speech after "riding the goat."
The main boxing bout scheduled for the evening—that between Tommy Murphy, amateur lightweight champion of the world, and "Dutch" Wilmion, champion lightweight of the Hill—was called off because Murphy was unable to come to Lawrence for the big go.
Curtin McLean's boys from The State Industrial School at Topaka were engaged to put on some bounces and a battle rattle; but they too failed to show up. There were, however, between good University boxers.
The K. U. band was in attendance and played throughout the evening. A vadeville and "bo'gish" act was put on by "slick" Haines and "Jesu."
Names of those who were initiated besides the honorary members follow: Charles Black, Lawrence; Lo Weidleim, Langton; Max Kruger, Incineration; Joanne Beecher, Incineration; John Boone, Hutchinson; Melvin Griffith, Burlington; Clyde Frye, Lawrence; Alan Davidson, LawREN; "Tria" Spurgeon, Kansas City, Kan

TO GIVE LINCOLN LECTURE
Prof. F. H. Hodder Speaks at Unitarian Church, Feb. 10
An illustrated lecture on "The Statues and Portraits of Lincoln" will be presented by Prof. F. H. H. Holden, Ph.D., Director of the Unitarian Church, Friday evening, February 10. Professor Holder has spent some time collecting the material for this lecture, and has written articles on the best reproductions of Lincoln.
It has been pointed out that this will be of particular interest to the students of the University at this time, because Professor Hodder lays special emphasis on the work French, and especially on his centery. Professor Holder received several photographs of French's best work this last week.
The lecture has never been presented to the public before, and, according to Miss Lynn of the department, she is "familiar with the material which Professor Hadden has gathered. It will be of great interest both to students of history and art." The lecture is being given under the auspices of the American Society for Clinical Psychology and a small fee will be charged. The receipts will go to a scholarship fund.
A list of the thirteen missing annuals was given out, dating from 1873 to 1910, and anyone wishing to contribute one or more of the following to the alumni library may do so by leaving them at the alumni office. Also the alumni library will issue annuals if those having them will telephone the office.
Steps are being taken by the K. U.
Alumni Association to complete its
files of missing annuals, according to
"Scoop" Hill, secretary.
The missing annuals are: Hierophantes, 1873; Kikkabe, 1882; Cycleon, 1883; Cicola, 1884; Heilanthus, 1896; Mirabilis, 1895; Kiwbook, 1896; and Jayhawkers, 1901, 1905, 1906, 1908, 1909, and 1910.
Alumni Office Is Still Hunting "Lost" Students
Beginning with 1901 the name of the annual was permanently decided upon as the "Jayhawk."
Dean Blackmar has been invited to give two courses of lectures in the Summer School of the University of Southern California at Los Angeles, but has found it necessary to decline the invitation because he could not well leave the work of the University of Kansas.
An All-University Convocation is called for Friday, February 3, at 10 o'clock in Robinson Gymnastics. Classes will be shortened to 35 minute periods and the morning schedule
1st hour ... 8:30 to 9:05

Students Sharpen Up the Old Skates
Did you skate any between semesters?
The skate grinding business in Lawrence took a sudden jump. One hardware store had a noticeable strain on their skate supply, and the skate strain problem was a hard one of theirs at all the stores handling this line.
If you remained in Lawrence and didn't take advantage of the ice on the Kaw and Potterts you missed something. The ice was not as good as it should be, but many adverts were out daily and night taking advantage of it.
Lactly the girls of today actually found a drawback in the present day styles—the low shoe. Many of them who hadn't had a "high-topper" for four years and wouldn't wear one on a bet now found that she would give any thing to have a pair. A lot of the fortunesome came a pair from the fortunesome ones who "just happened" to have a pair, others tried it with "low cutters," while some just joked the "out' buck" club—and looked on.
BIG TIME TONIGHT FOR LEGIONNAIRES

Indianapolis, Feb. 1.—Au alliance of union coal miners and railroad workers—the two most powerful labor groups in the country—was proposed today by John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers.
A RAIL AND COAL UNION
An invitation to the railroaders asking them to cast their lots with the miners was sent to heads of all railroad brotherhoods, and was a direct outgrowth of a movement started in Cleveland convention of miners in 1919.

SHANTUNG QUESTION SETTLED IN PARLEY
Greatest Source of Friction is Far East is Removed Now
PROVINCE GOES TO CHINA
A New Treaty Covering Limita tion of Naval Forces Drafted Today
Cortentin Hall, Washington, Feb. 1—a Final settlement of the Shantung question, a potential source of war ever since the Versailles Conference, was officially announced by the secretary of State by Secretary of State Hughes.
Hughes announced that a written agreement between Japan and China, providing for the return of the Shanxi troops, had been completed last night.
He read the compact to the conference.
Besides giving over to China the important Shantung Railway, the settlement calls for the return of Kinow Chew, the former German leasehold to China, restoration of public properhood in Shanghai, and a naval movement of Japanese troops, as soon as the Chinese are able to take over, in any case not later than six months.
Only the question of the 21 demands were presented for the consideration of the Conference. Immediately the delegation moved to agree on agreements regarding China.
As for the railway settlement proper, China pays approximately fifty-three million, five hundred thousand gold marks, plus charges for improvement and maintenance that has maintained following her seclusion of Know Chow from the Germans.
The payment for the line shall be in treasury notes, covering fifteen years, with a redemption privilege in five years.
The outstanding fact is that China gets Kiwo Chow and the Shantung Railway, thus removing a serious source of friction in the Far East.
Washington, Feb. 1—A new treaty providing for a sweeping limitation of naval armaments was formally approved by the arms conference today. The treaty alsoives the five powers, arse and announced their acceptance of the treaty.
This followed a speech by Secretary Hughes in which he stated that the agreement was the first of its kind in the history of the world—to stop the competition among great nations for naval building.
The great Five Powers naval limitation, creating a naval holiday, and providing a basis for a sourier world peace, was presented to a plenary session of the arms conference today for the approval of the world.
On November 12, Secretary Hughes dropped his first bombshell proposal for scrapping a vast number of capital craft. Today he gave the world the finished product, a document that clearly states that the island is destined to be hailed as the world's most successful curb on competitive armaments up to the 20th century.
Hurches waived the reading of the treaty and concluded with an explanation of details.
Under the treaty, the three great naval powers, the United States, Britain, and Japan, will scrap 68 great capital ships of a total tonage of 4.5 million. The number of ships to be issued by France and Italy must figure higher.
The treaty starts a ten year naval holiday—with a few exceptions—in capital ship building—dating from November 12, 1921.
The complete treaty announced today is mainly the same as the original American proposal. It was a vicinity agreement, shared in by the other nations.
Iron clad, technical rules and regulations are embodied in the pact to see that the ships to be scrapped are actually sent to the junk heap. Detailed charts are also included in accordance with which old capital ships are maintained.
can be repaired after the holiday.
The powers agreed in the treaty that if during its duration the nation's territory is one of the nations it is threatened there will be a conference of the signatory powers at the request of the affected nations to consider changes in the past to meet the situation.
