VOCATIONAL MEN ENTERTAIN
Four Dusky Amateurs Mix in Boxing Bout
Four dusky ring amateurs "mixe
a" up" in lively fashion at the Federal
Vocational Men's smoker held
at the American Legions rooms Monday
night, and Prof. W.D.Wivels of
the department, commanding the
tentron in the 314th Sanitary Train, 89th Division A.E.F.
made a short talk.
In the first boxing bout the "Zulu Kid," a small Ethiopian, was matched against a lad of the same color but much larger, called the "Tulsa Kid." "Zulu" got the decision on a foot the third round in, and "Chain Lightin" and "Cannon Ball" fought three rounds to a draw.
Professor Davis related anecdotes of overseas service and of the south where he was raised, and strongly advised him to pick the course for which he was best fitted and strive to succeed. He suggested courses, such as language and literat-ute help to any man in later life.
Only a small percent of the members of the organization were in attendance, due no doubt to the rain. Another meeting is to be held at some future time, the date to be announced a few days previous to the meeting.
U. Graduate Lectures At Meeting of Sigma XI
Dr. E. C. Franklin, B. S'88 and M.' 92, now of Le兰 Stanford University, gave a lecture Saturday night before Sigma Xi, on "Acids, Bases and Salts of Ammonia". Doctor Franklin discussed the similarity of Amina and water as soluble solution various compounds. Amina will form soluble water to form conducting solutions, as also will water. He gave various examples of this.
Dr. Franklin is the accepted American authority on ammonium and liquid ammonia compounds. He is at present an organic chemistry in Iceland. Stanford.
Dr. Franklin was instructor and professor for some years here, leaving in 1903, and was an early member of Sigma Xi

New Courses Offered
Under the direction of Dean F, W Blackmar, or the Sociology department, the University of Kansas expects to institute a new course in preparatory training for Consular Service at the University next year. Although not a finishing school for consuls this course will adequately prepare the student design this work for finishing at some higher school. While the work will be largely specia- lized liberal education will not be slighted.
New Courses Offered Next Year by Blackma
Another new course which should prove very popular is training for City Managers. In view of the large salaries commanded and the competence required, a new enrollment would be no surprise to the University authorities.
GERMANY AGREEABLE TO LAST ULTIMATUM
Paris Newspapers Say Settlement Is Due to United States Pressure
Berlin, May 11—Germany finally yielded to the allies today. With a cabinet chosen especially to accept the allied ultimatum, Chancellor Wirth today sent to London and Paris and Rome, a note agreeing to all demands. The note was handed to all ambassadors here, also.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 11, 1921
Paris, May 11- Disappointed by loss of a chance to seize the Ruhr, France updated today for Germany's final note of surrender.
Officials said that the invasion will be held up if the German note is as sweeping as reported.
The French, however, made no move to cancel troop orders or other preparation. They regarded the invasion as more postponed than ablative.
Paris newspapers gave the final settlement credit to American pressure on Berlin. Secretary Hughes's last note bidding the German make acceptable alliance Allie was credited being the deciding factor in the Berlin decision.
American success in bringing about an unconditional renunciation was said to be proof that the United States is willing to whip hand in international affairs.
"Honey?" Wilson, caretaker of Me-Cook, met Chancelor Lindley for the first time Tuesday. He said the usual recipe is lemonade. The man was of the million-dollar variety.
"If this doesn't make Pathe News, nothing ever will," murmured the moving picture man as he reeled several feet of two tea hounds sawing away with might and main at a timebr.
There was a shortage of cups, but borrowing was freely indulged in. One cup was lent thirty-three times.
The morning's work was as good as a term in the University for some workers. For instance, one worker, who stood on the wrong end of a board while he cut the hole that held it, learned that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, e.g. the shortest route from the top of the bleachers to the bottom is to fall.
Nineteen thousand sandwiches were made yesterday. Let's see, that would feed one man for something like ten years, wouldn't it?
The men seemed to find plenty of old clothes, suitable for the occasion
A down-town pool-hall netted seven ten to the "personnel (or personal) quad." They ran the gauntlet, thug missing their cue.
Classes are sleepy today. Manual older does not aid in the preparation if lessons, but nevertheless, there is a pleasure to be found in newly-discovered muscles of the back and arms.
When "Cap" Garvin ambled on the field attired among other things in an "emergency sign", squid, it was a signal for a barrage of mud. He was soon looking like the bottom of the kaw.

MEMORIAL OFFICERS ELECTED LAST NIGHT
Lindley, Morgan, J. Hill, A. Hill and Kreeck Elected Association Heads
The University of Kansas Memorial Corporation elected officers last night at their meeting, Chancellor E. H. Lindley was chosen president. The first vice-president's office was left vacant, W. Y. Morgan was named second vice president, Irving Hill of Lawrence was elected third vice president, A. G. Hill secretary of the K. U. Alumni association was named secretary and treasurer, and Major George Barker was named author of the funds.
SEVEN MEN ON COMMITTEE
Lindley, Delano, Allen, Sweeney Cooke, and Baumgartner Have Been Named
That the Student Union building would be carried along in the campaign for the Stadium was decide upon by the committee last night. An architect was employed to prepare definite plans for the Union and a University reviewing board of engineers will pass on all proposals.
By-laws for the corporation were accepted last night.
That the federal tax on Stadium-Union funds could largely be avoided was reported by Judge C. A. Smart,
Seven members composing an executive committee, were named to perform duties as completely as the board, except when the board itself is in session. Members comprising this committee are: Dr. Lindley, E. J. Delano, of Kansas City, Dr. A. J. Crawford, of Kansas City, Thorton Cooke, of Kansas City, and Dr. Baumgartner. One vacancy in this committee remains to be filled.
A gift of "cntt," a form of crushed rock, valued at $2,000, from the Independent Gravel Company of Joplin, MN, has been announced. The book will be used in the construction of the Stadium, and it will cost the corporation only the price of transportation. S. A. Fones associates with the gravel company.
Efforts will be made to complete enough of the Stadium to seat 10,000 persons for the Kansas Missouri football game next fall.
and proof against injury from mud and water, but many summer frocks and white oxfordis suffered on the field of action.
Professors and instructors were barely recognizable due to the fact that many of them were hidden behind a day's growth of beard and garbed in a fashion, in which many of students had never seen them.
Ginghams pleased the men workers. Some even said the women looked better than they had ever seen them before.
An eager worker approached Section D, and shouted, "Who's your man here." No one answered. He deposited himself on the grass, with "Well, I always like to identify myself with the majority."
The tearing down of the bleacher cost the Stadium Corporation practically nothing, the money for food being collected from fraternities, sororites, boarding clubs, and Lawrence business men. It saved approximately $8,000, it is estimated, in wrecking costs.
"I wore out seven partners carrying boards," declared Earl Johnson, showing and wearing the banded Hat. Edd Hart finally gave out, and Ed Sandefur swooned.
Stadium Day recalled fund memories of youth to many. Several glareful mud battles were staged, faculty, students and staff joined in merry conflicts.
Sunburned necks among the women are prominent among the Stadium Day souvenirs.
And viewed the field of action,
The muddy shoes he saw thereon
Gave him much satisfaction.

Section B was the first on the south side to be torn away, while several north side sections disappeared simultaneously. The north side was cleared away first.

K. U. TO HEAR SPEECH BY FAMOUS SCULPTOR
Lorado Taft to Talk on Relation of Art to Everyday
Life
Lorado Taft, famous American sculptor, has been secured by Della Phi honorary art soriety, on his western trip to speak in Franck Chassé's museum. He is poised on the relation of art especially sculpturing, to everyday life.
Mr. Taft is the author of some of the most widely known pieces of statuary in the world. Among his masterpieces is the great group entitled "The Blind" which has been called the saddest piece of statue in history. It features a lightness faces which the sculptor has bespoke with vivid clearness.
Others of his more famous groups are the Great Lakes Group at Chicago, and the Columbus Memorial at Washington, D.C. But the largest of his works in more ways than one, is the famous "Black Hawk," a fifty-foot high fictional bridge that flanks the biosqueur Rock River, near Oregon, II, depicting the Indian chief standing, arms folded and wrapped in his blanket, gazing in stony stoicism out over the country his fathers had loved so well. This statue was a labor of love with him, who was not a practical at the scouter's own expense—an act sedum duplicated in the history of art.
Mr. Taft himself, possesses a striking personality. In manner he is attractive, urbane and exceedingly modest of his own work, says the Writer. These qualities have made him one of the most popular of sculptors.
MAY FETE TAGS ON SALE
Admission Cards Must be Dis played at Performance
Tickets for the May Fete may be obtained at the check stand in Fraser Hall. They are in the form of tags which should be displayed at the grounds Saturday when the May Fete takes place.
There will be a canvass made later in the week by the finance committee of the Y. W. in an endeavor to get all those who have not purchased tickets earlier. The admission price is based on the number of students and town people and twenty-five cents for children, the limit for children being placed at 12 years so as to eliminate all possibilities of the University people being admitted for less. It is urged that a strong sale of the tickets be carried on at least once to be one of the biggest which have ever been in the University.
The Annual Kannan Banquet will be held tomorrow night, May 12 at Bricken's Banquet room. The faculty and wives of the department of history will attend both active and inactive, will attend. About sixty-five or seventy-five people will be present, Mr. S.O. Rice from Topka, editor of the Capper Farmer and formerly a professor of the department will be there, or three talks by local men.
Kansan Board to Have Annual Banquet Thursday
The Gloe Club Quartet will entertain with a few numbers, after which two or three talks by local men.
Fred Revers, c24, was in Kansas City Tuesday, where he was examined in regard to the soldiers disability claim.
Meeting Places For Spring Lovers Many
Now that spring has burst upon us with all her glory, what we need is a little more information about where to find good, handy, and sometimes secluded meeting places in the city. It will well enough to arrange accident-on-purpose meetings at Brick's and Lee's and the Jayhawk where it was warm and cozy, but somewhere with the long, golden afternoons and the dreamy fragrant hills, one aesthetic call for some trying place a little less mundane.
This has led many to investigate the matter thoroughly, and while the necessary information seems a little hard to gather, owing to the fact that those who know of desirable places have told us that down by the lake seems to be a favorite afternoon meeting place. In fact it is so crowded down there in the late afternoon that the poor in arts students who are art students should turn to the natural beauty are likely to paint portrait painters.
Back of the Law building, too, there is an old stone bench that is rarely ever lonesome, and most of the time the little path that winds along back of Ad. almost requires a traffic cop. Then there is the whole vast countryside that side that faces Bob. Back of the Wakauras, which would be delightfully exclusive if half the University didn't stroll out that way every afternoon.
Coming back to earth, we find a few of the winter meeting places still left over—the good old Lib, the me-down by-the-mud-box one, the beside-the-big tree-one, and the around-the-corner-from-the-house. The front porch is still popular, and so is the picture show and all the places where deliciously cool things can be purchased and gobbled.
But to come down to the real facts of the matter, while there's life, there's always hope of meeting some one almost anyplace!
ENTOMOLOGY DAY, MAY 16
Celebration to Honor Hunter's Twenty-fifth Year at K.U.
The Entomology club is working on plank for a big department day for May 16, in honor of Professor Hunter's two years as interim director in contact with the department.
Entomologists from all parts of the state have been invited to attend the event, which promises to be one of the best ever given by the department. The entire staff of the department, two of the entomologists and two of the entomologists at the government station in Wichita are expected to arrive Monday morning. Members of the entomological commission and a number of nurserymen are also attending the department has had co-operating with years will, also, attend the affair.
The program will begin Monday noon with a buffet lunch served by the Entomology club in the club rooms of the Museum, followed by an annual research session and an entomological exhibit which a number of entomological exhibits will be on display.
These exhibits will consist of Riken mounts showing mothes of the Limberback, demonstration hives of bees, dies displays showing the nectar and diseases, lives history exhibits, and various other exhibits showing insect behavior.
This insect display is an educational feature intended as much for those who have not had work in Entomology as for trained entomologists, and all K. U. people interested in these exhibits are welcomed to departmenti rooms Monday afternoon by members of the department. A conference on entomological workers will be held at 3 o'clock in Blake where papers will be read by various entomologists throughout the state.
The last feature of the day's program will be a dinner at the Congregation Parish House at 6:30 o'clock, where Professor Dean, head of the Entomology department at Manhattan, and president of the Association of Economic Entomologists, will give the principal address, to students of the department who expect to attend the dinner should see some member of the Entomology club before Thursday evening.
"The Gospel of Work" is the sub-
ject to be discussed at Ewertho-
League next Sunday evening at T
Everett. The discussion will be led by
Everett Gunn.

BLEACHERS SUCCUMBED BEFORE ONSLAUGHTS OF STUDENT ARMY
An Amazingly Short Time and Thousands of Students Made Rickety Old Stands on McCook Become History
ORCHESTRA CONCERT IS DECIDED SUCCESS
Intermittent Torrents of Rain on Tin Roof Did Not Break Attention
PATHE NEWS FILMED CELEBRATION
Snake Dance That Followed Barbecue Feast and Ending in Convocation on Hill Good Stuff for Cameraman
Swept by a cyclone of hustling humanity, torn asunder by a hurricane of perspiring thousands, the historic, rickly stakes which had held athletic crowns on McCook field for twenty years, yesterday swayed their last, and passed into memory.
A concert of the highest order was given by the New York Philharmonic Orchestra Monday night in Robinson Gymnasium. As the closing number of the University Concert Course it was fitting and effective.
Only an orchestra composed of thorough musicians, and under the direction of a Jouef Strasman, have attained such beauty of tone and perfection of style. Indeed, it may well be said that Jouef Strasman's work as a conductor has led to the development of symphony music in this country.
All of the umbears were well received by the audience, the third one, "Death and Transiguration," by Strauss, especially *sad*. The dand, murmur strains of the first part drew a wonderfully realistic picture of the sick man's despairing fight with death, the monotons beating of the tympan added greatly to the effect. following this, a climax was worked up to, wherein the deep tones of the bass violins, the bassoon, the flaring forth of the brass, and the crying out of the violins all combined to paint a gripping picture of the terrible agony experienced in a losing fight with death.
Stadium Day was a success; it was a grand and howling success. Ever detail of work and entertainment was run off in schedule time, or better than schedule time. In only one hour and eighteen minutes after the work of devastation was full under way, the stands had gone down, and students were piling the lumber in an assembling yard east of the field.
Then followed a calmer movement, a quickening of the tempo, broader tones, and another climax which announced the end— death; but not victory for death, for immediately the suggestion was mode, the violins broad, sustained tone of the violins in death there is victory for the soul.
A finished display of technique, fine shading, startling transitions, complete control by the conductor, and powerful climaxes characterized the fourth and last number, "Symphony No. 4" by Tchaikovsky. The fourth movement, "Allegro con fuoco," was played with almost incredible rapidity.
DEATH TO IMRI ZUMWALT
Much of the beauty of the second number, composed by Henry Hadley, associate conductor, was lost to the hearers because of the noise made by the instruments in a composition which requires the utmost delicacy in interpretation.
Funeral Services Will be Held at Bonner Springs
Imri Zumwalt, state printer, died yesterday morning at Bethany hospital, Kansas City, Kansas.
active Zumwalt had always been an active friend of the University and was especially interested in the local department of journalism. He was principal speaker at the Kanan Board banquet last spring.
Mr. Zumwalt was a native Kansan and was graduated from Washburn in 1906. He was a charter member of the Delta Phi fraternity which afterwards became a national chapter of Phi Delta Theta. He has been appointed as wapowpar business since 1900 and was prominent in editorial circles.
He was president of the Second District Editorial Association in 1910-11 and was vice-president of the Kansas Editorial association in 1918-19. He was a member of the Press and University clubs of Topeka. Burial will be made at Bonner Springs.
Organization plans were well perfected. In alphabetical order, the workers gathered at various sections of the blachers, and began their task of lifting planks, removing joists, and priing side-rails. As soon as a worker reached an ancient timber, another group would begin to carry it off the field.
Although by far the great majority of students turned out to assist in the destruction, a few sluggishagers stayed behind. In one case, of these, a personnel squad turned out, thirty-five strong, and made a tour of the Hill. Armed with paddles, the sound discovered sixty men, and the attack soon with the multitude of laborers.
While the bleachers were undergoing their last rites, an immense company of men was building portable bleachers to contain crowds at the two track meets to be held here yet this weekend. To make it two power saws, and the short time consumed in the construction of these temporary stands was miraculous.
our work was the main pleasure of the day. Just after a bunch of Kansas City alumni and the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce pulled up Illinois Avenue headed by a band, fifteen “chow” lines were put into motion, and 4,000 porses were fed in less than an hour. The fifteen tables preceded table pasts which were presided over by ten or twelve University women. Heaper's tables opened upon thousands of sandwiches—peanut outfit, pimento cheese, and freshly barbecued beef, giant quantities of beans, pickles, innumerable ice cream cones, and gallon after gallon of steaming coffee
An orderly crowd then took plates to the cars and curtains on Illinois street, and was soon stuffed. "Seconds" were allowed those who came back for more. Never before in the history of the University had such a feed been held, and never before anywhere had 4,000 appetites been so thoroughly satisfied.
After the banquet, a snake dance was held for the benefit of digestion and for a Pathe News Film cameraman who had been "shooting" scenes of the celebration throughout the morning. The tarantula exhibition included the reenactment of the Administration Building, where in outdoor unvection was held.
Dwelling upon the rebirth of the University of Kansas, Chancellor Lindley sounded the keynote of the holiday in a short speech. "The students of Kansas deserve everything that is given to the students at Princeton, Yale, and Harvard," he said, "and they are going to have it."
The visiting alumni were then introduced to the enormous crowd, and a few speeches of loyalty were made. Then a pushball contest was announced, the thousands adjourning to Hamilton Field. After this sport had resulted in countless bruises and boundless enthusiasm, the last seducted event of the celebration took place. Cloak in overhead Clinder Lillypeg flew across furrow across McCook Field. The ground for a new half-million dollar project was broken. The bleachers are dead! Long live the Stadium!
A meeting of the Women's Forum will be held Thursday afternoon at 4:30 p'clock in Fraser Hall. The meeting will be attended by all Al members are urged to be present. Officers for next year will be elected and a constitution adopted.
The class in Remedial and Corrective Agencies will go to leaveworth tomorrow, Thursday, May 12th. Mess at the Interurban Station at 6:35 a.m.
