UNIQUE SEATS IN O. STADIUM
"Parterre Boxes" Added to Seating Plan
Columbus, O., April-A a unique feature has been introduced in the seating plan of Ohio Stadium of the Ohio State University by the addition of 48 "parterre boxes." These new boxes will contain 12 chairs each, and are located in a line about half way up the lower deck.
It is expected that these new boxes will prove very popular with patrons who like to see the game from elevated seats. They have the ad
national advantage over the regular front boxes of being protected from the weber by the cantilever overhang of the upper deck, but as they are in front of the supporting column of the field it is not obstructed.
Stadium founders, who through their gifts of $5000 or more have boxes named in their honor, will have their choice of either front boxes or parterte boxes. The largest boxes each are arranged in connecting pairs in a double row, so that parties of 16 may be accommodated.
McKEEVER TO SPEAK AT Y.W.C.A. MEETING
K. U. Professor Will Talk Tues day on "How To Know
a Man"
Dr. Wm. A. McKeever of the department of child welfare of the University of Kansas, will address the Y. W. C. A. on Tuesday afternoon in Fraser Chapel at 4:30 o'clock upon the subject of "How to know a good man." 4:30 o'clock upon the subject of "How to know a good man."
in his talk, Mr. McKeever is using the same material which he used in his speech made recently in Tulsa on the idea of "Marrving on a dollar." This
(talk has caused a great deal of caustic and ridiculing comment which Mr. McKeewen will probably refute in his address tomorrow.
Mr. McKeewan has not said that he will try to explain to the girls as to how to score the young men on a percentage grade sheet but he says:
"I regard the proper selection of a life mate as a subject of extreme importance for young people and one upon which we should have all the information necessary to study this problem for a score of years, and expect to treat it as frankly as should be done in case of any scientific or literary subject." It is hoped that a great many students will be able to hear Mr. McKeev's address. The Y. M. C. A has been invited to attend the meet.
Fred Millikin, '123, has withdrawn from school to accept a position as salesman for Grieesa's nursery.
John Lonborg, c24, returned Monday morning from a business trip to Emporia.
Haskell, Founded in 1884, Is the Largest Institution of Its Kind In the Whole United State
How many students in the University of Kansas have anything more than a vague, hazy idea of what Haskell Institute is, and what it stands for and means, for example, but to the country at large? To how many students does the name "Haskell" convey more than an idea of a place to go to see Lawrence high school games or to ride through the city on a bike afterwards? Nine chances out of ten, not more than a few per cent could answer intelligently any questions asked them about the Institute, even though it does have a nationwide reputation or recognition of its hold in the United States.
Haskell Institute was founded in 1884, five years after Carley Indian Institute, founded in New York, had proved that government support and control of an Indian school was profitable and advantageous.
Since its founding Haskell has grown from one building to 50; from 40 acres of land to 1,000; from 14 pumps to an annual enrollment of nearly 1,000 and from four industrial departments to 25. At the present time the property valuation is approximately one-half million dollars, and more appropriations are being asked from the government for the building
of a separate power plant for heat and light. There are about three hundred similar institutions in the United States, like Blacklock, the University of Utah, both in equipment and size, and education and scholarship standing.
The general organization of the school is based on the military form of discipline, for both the boys and girls. Great competition and interest is displayed in the gaining of offices, both for the honor system, also the training privileges to which they are entitled. Haskell has won a state wide reputation for her excellence in athletics, including football, basketball, and track. A very fine gymnasium and a good track field serve as an incentive to the girl who includes sports. At the University there is a store from the University who directs the athletics and coaches the performance of the annual play and fetes.
The school is divided into two parts,
the prevocational and the vocational, the former including those below academy age and the latter embracing the work commonly done in high and junior high schools. The academic and industrial work is divided into days from noon to noon, instead of the usual method. In this case faculty are dedicated on the industrially well as the academic, with work carried on both in the morning and afternoon in each department. The usual academic studies are taught and in addition manners and right conduct, industrial chemistry and entomology, and a general course in business are given. The industry school offers dolears and art for the girls and carpentry, shoe-making, printing, farming, forging, engineering, masonry, baking, plumbing, woodworking, gardening and the like. There are 67 instructors engaged actively.
The social side of the school life of the students is strongly stressed. There are eight rival literary societies which put on weekly programs. A band and orchestra seem to foster the talent of the musically inclined. School parties and socials are given every two weeks, with some last tendant dance performances of the band orchestra, boys' and girls' glee and choir. Three nights weekly are given over to supervised study in the well equipped library.
There are over sixty tribes represented in the school, coming from 30 different states. There is a predominance from the Sioux tribe and many from the Kiowa, Cerapho, Seneca, Peoria, Pottawatomie, Creek and Cherokee. Ninety per cent of the Haskell students are more than half Indian, and there are almost exactly the same number of boys as girls.
An intense school spirit is foostered by the Haskell boys and girls, and to their alma Mater song of "The Purple and the Gold" carries as much of sentiment and regard as does our "Crimson and Blue."
Mary Rose Barrons is spending the week-end at her home in Kansas City.

William E. Hoffman, assistant curator of Entomology, received a shipment of interesting water insects this week from Mrs. Grace Wiley of Cisco, Tex. These insects were collected April 2, and among them were two species of Notonectids, more commonly known as backswimmers.
Hoffman Gets Shipment Of Texas Water Insects
E. B. Thompson, e23, will spend the week-end in Independence, Mo.
Mr. Hoffman is especially anxious to get specimens of backswimmers as he is making a study of this group of insects. He has material on hand, from about a dozen widely separated states, and from Canada, and is expecting the arrival of specimens of Notectinids from Hawaii.
A meeting of the athletic board and the auxiliary committee which has been helping in the consideration of men for the position of coach of football for the 1921 season, has been called for this afternoon at 3 o'clock. He is not expected that HAS has not been announced whether or not final action will be taken.
