The Jayhawk division is headed by H. B. Ober, president of the "Wildes" division, and the third division, under the direction of L. N. Lewis, has not yet chosen its name.

JAPAN IS WILLING TO DECREASE NAVY
But U.S. and Great Britain Must Take the Lead, Diplomat
London, Jan. 19. Japan is waiting for Great Britain or the United States to take the lead in disarmament, Baron Hayashi, Japanese ambassador, indicated in an interview today.
The Baron expressed pleasure that his suggestions for a round table of business men to discuss the problem seemed to have been well taken in the United States. He declared the time is not ripe for completely dismantling the world navies, but he continued to argue that each country would be sufficient if the "spur of distressful competition" were removed.
Says
The Oriental can afford to be frank "since our position is very simple namely, 'we want to save money.'"

"It is the Japanese view that the disarmament question can be settled between Great Britain and Japan," since they are the biggest sea powers," he said.

PLAN AMENDMENT TO MEN'S CONSTITUTION
Advisory Assembly Must Initiate Legislation, Say Assemblymen in Meeting
APPROVE POINT SYSTEM
Harry Olson, c'23, Elected President of Body—"Doc" Baldwin, c'22, Secretary
A proposal to amend the constitution of the Associated Men so as to permit the initiation of legislation in the Advisory Assembly, definite approving of some sort of a point system, and the election of officers from its own membership, were the most important happenings of the meeting of the Men's Advisory Assembly Tuesday afternoon.
Dissatisfaction with the present ability of the Assembly to "start anything" was complained of bitterly by the members. Alternatives of dropping the organization altogether, and submitting an amendment to abolish the article providing for the Assembly, or trying to sit up their凳, were offered. The motion finally passed in the form of a resolution, asking the Men's Student Council to submit a constitutional amendment to the student body of the University at a special election as soon as possible. The proposed method of drawing up the amendment is by a joint committee of three members each from the Council and from the members of the same committee the name of the council was promised Council, who presided at the first part of the meeting Tuesday.
Harry Oscar, e23, was elected chairman of the Assembly, and "Doe" Baldwin, e22, secretary. Both are representatives from organized houses. The president of the Assembly, be elected from the membership of the Assembly, previous meetings having been presided over by John Tracey, president of the Council. The vacancy at secretary was caused by the resignation of Early Chase. The vacancy early last fall.
Unexpected opposition to a "point system" submitted by the Council for deliberation, arose when a resolution which would have put the body on record as against any "point system" was proposed. The motion was voted down by a large majority. Immediately, the vote was withdrawn in the point system, before reporting it back to the Council where it originated, according to Olson.
Loss of representation in the Assembly is the penalty for duly organized houses not electing and sending delegates to meeting, according to secretary "Dae" Baldwin, and the rule that three consecutive meetings shall be dropped, will be rigidly enforced, he says. A few more than half of the membership of fifty-four were present. Sachems, Owls, Black Helmets, Sphinx as well as many of the boastiness of those who failed "o send representatives to the meeting."
A regular meeting time was set as the first and third Tuesdays of each month, at 4:18 in the afternoon. The body will be held early next semester.

Journalists Will Aid University Publicity
Twenty-eight "K's" were awarded at Convocation in Robinson gymnasium this morning as an honor conferred by the University of Kansas for athletic endeavor and achievement.
A committee was appointed to work in conjunction with the University publicity department and see that whenever any student wins honors at school or any group o students do something worth while than the home paper will hear about it and consequently the entire community.
The Associated Journalism students met this afternoon in Room 102 Journalism Building and discussed plans that the organization has under way for a thorough University publicity effort. The team practiced every paper in the state.
"We honor these men who have won "K's" because they are taking an important art in the development of the national life in America," stated Chancellor Lindley in his opening speech. It is the Chancellor's belief that athletics in a school tend to curb disorder and unrest among the student body.
Misa Pauline De Woolty c"24 who has been ill with a severe attack of tomlitis was able to return o school yesterday.
"This is proven by the reminisces of the old grads," he said. "Those of the old regime tell about mischievous and often wild pranks played upon the faculty, while the grades of the past few years speak in glowing terms of athletic victories and feats on the field."
Dr. Forrest C. Allen made the actual presentation of the certificates of honor, after they were handed to him by Chancellor Lindley, and very quickly became men—"To you football man who have carried on when defeat stared in the face and who never thought of giving up, and to you track man who have given the best of what is in you to keep the honor and standards at the top. I confer this insignia of honor from the University of Kansas."
The remainder of convocation hour was taken up by Dean F. J. Kelley, head of the School of Education, who explained to the assembled body the extreme need of each student talking up larger appropriations for K. U. all the time that the Kansas legislature is in session.
"The facts that our classrooms are too crowded and poorly ventilated, that we are losing efficient instructors every year because of higher salaries paid elsewhere, and that with it, students are more likely since we have had a new building should be carried over the state," Dean Kelly said.
Dean Kelly further asked the students and friends of the University not to be hard on the legislators if they cannot see fit to increase our appropriations to an adequate amount because of the crisis in financial affairs. However, if the schools in Kansas get what they are asking for, that rate would only be the price of a two-cent stamp be said.
Convocation closed with "Crimson and Blue" and a "Rock Chalk" after which the Kansas News Letter and the biennial report of the Chancellor were distributed by journalism students.
Convection was opened by two selections from the Girl's Glee Club, and only lack of time prevented the audience from hearing more. A new show was especially appreciated as it was especially appreciated as the students had heard it before.
