He hearing the cries of Ralph Clements, 5 years old, Dieta rushed to the scene of the accident, and, taking off his overcoat, hat and shoes, alld out to the edges of the thin ice. Near the hole the ice broke under his weight, challenging his ability to escape the attack. After struggling through the water for about ten minutes, Dieta succeeded in dragging the little boy to the shore where firemen used a pumpator for more than an hour in an unsuccessful effort to resuscitate him.
Despite his long exposure in the water, Diefz has suffered no ill effects and has returned to school. His home is in Pratt.

Present State of University Funds Causes Indefinite Postponement
CHANCELLOR LINDLEY STOPS INAUGURATION
K: U. NEEDS EVERY DOLLAR
Inaugural Ceremonies May Be Held With Commencement Exercises
The inauguration of Dr. E. H. Lindley as Chancellor of the University of Kansas, tentatively announced December 15 to be held February 8 and 9, has been indefinitely postponed. He will be appointed by a committee appointed at the suggestion of the State Board of Administration, Chancellor Lindley said that while the estimates of expenses appeared reasonable, he should dislike to see any money spent for the purpose of present state of University funds.
"With an enrollment of students in air in excess of expectations and the overcasts made in the last biennial budget, the University will need every he institute for the necessary work of his institution," said Chancellor Lindy when interviewed concerning the muralization.
One suggestion made by members of the committee is that the inaugural ceremonies be held at commencement, thus reducing the additional expense of the occasion to almost nothing and enabling a larger number of alumni to attend than would be possible at the time originally fixed.
The announcement of the indefinite postponing of the immigration followed a meeting of the Board of Ad- dition with the faculty at the University.

Fight to Be Factor in Winning Games for Kansas, Say Allen and Laslett
Basketball practice, continuing throughout the vacation with the exception of Christmas and New Years, has brought out one vital truth: The Kanaas quintet must base its hopes in the Missouri Valley conference race wholly upon speed, hard practice, and grim determination.
Handicapped by lack of experience and death of weight, the Crimson and Gladiators will be forced to go into every fray with only the armor of a muscular soldier. The poisoned weapons of hostile warriors. With the first conference struggle next Friday night, however, the invading Drake Builds will be met by a vigorous attack, and will be forced to die if they succeed in emerging victorious.
KANSAS'SHOWS GAIN
As yet Dr. Forrest C. Allen, director of athletics and coach coach, has not picked the five men who will take the court against the Dea Nolmes aggregation. In fact, Dr. Allen is up against a hard proposition in the situation with the team. The summary choice would place Body and Woecatmeyer at forward, Captain Urlbahn at center, and Bennett and Endacott or Orlen at guard. This lineup seems to be the class of the squid just at present, but Allen may inject a few surprises at the initial context. The team needs to hook the hoop, caging shots from nearby every angle. Woecatmeyer looks good at the other advance position, his floor work entitle him to a burth on the team. Urlbahn is being worked out at both center and guard, and took at both positions, his triumph booming dangerous to invading baskets. Bennett seems to be going in mid-season form, and his shooting ability should score many points this season. Pam Endacott, former Lawrence Palm Endacott, former Lawrence Palm star, and his shooting ability should score many points this season. Pa
"Long John" Wulf, with six feet four inches of Oregonian high school basketball, has been playing at center in some of the practices. If Wulf delivers, Couch Allen will have one of his chief worries crushed. The lanky playoff winner of the NHL of Allen and "Soroby" Laskett, head coach, and he may be inserted in a conference contest, before the Bulldogs leave for home, George Bowman, Will Staplin, Clarence Hook, and Kenny Welsh are among the new men who have looked good at forward, Ossen and Duncan. George Hale, Udolph Rumpel, and Andy McDonald have been bumaries at guard.

COUNTY CLUBS ASKED TO REPORT ON WORK
Many K. U. Booster Meetings Were Held—Alumni Office Is Gathering Data
The urgent need of the University for extensive repairs, improvements, and additions to the present equipment is urged upon the Board of Administration and the state by the biennial report of Chancellor E. H. Lindley, covering the two-year period ending June 30, 1920.
What did you do?—is the questio
offers of the county clubs are
quested to answer on their return from
the Christmas holidays.
Reports reaching Lawrence indicate there were more K. U., reunions, more K. U., conversations in the high school chapels and a greater number of other activities in the interest of the University than in any other permanent U. U. alumni clubs were organized as a reult of student efforts.
A budget system "adequate to secure and hold a faculty second to none in the state universities" is asked by the report, copies of which were received by University authorities from the state printer during vacation, and are now being sent out. Provision for expansion in many branches of state service is also urged as an immediate need of the state of Kansas, in summarization of numerous tables showing the ways in which the University benefits the state, and the increase of service possible under a generous appropriation.
"It is important that presidents of the club's turnups in town to the Alumni Office reports of what they accomplish." Alfred G. Hill, secretary of the Alumni Association, said today that 120 U.K. K. U. workers will be placed in form so as to be of value in future holiday seasons.
A blank outlining the county club work can be obtained at the Alumni Office, 112 Fraser Hall. Points which county club officers are requested to cover concerning their work include reunions with former K. U. people, formation of alumni-former student clubs. K. U. is actively involved in other activities, with prospective students; distribution of printed information about K. U., window exhibits, and the attitude of the legislators at home.
Allen, Stafford, Bourbon and Shawnees counties are among those which are known to have formed K. U. clubs. A complete report will be given in the Daily Kansas when the answers from the county club officials are received.

LARGER ENROLLMENT
Enrollment for the school year, of 1819-20 is given an 4,011, a slight increase over even the abnormal year enrollment of 3,916 in 1918-19. True comparison of the increase in the last two years is given by the difference in the 1917-18 enrollment—that is, the year's enrollment of 4,011. Correspondence of students in 1818-19 numbered 1,265, and in 1819-20, 1,658.
K U. students come from homes in 101 of the 106 Kansas counties, from twenty-two states, and foreign countries including China, Hawaii, Japan, and the Philippine Islands. 437 students, from 133 other institutions, were admitted to study in K U. in the single year 1919-20, the report states.
487 degrees were granted last year, and 409 in 1918, bringing the total of degrees given by the University to 7,002. Scholarship records have been on the increase continually, the report has shown.

Need of a graduate school budget separates from the undergraduate instruction is stressed in the report of the department of education. The School. Need of the school for a budget of $50,000 per annum for ordinary work was given in Blackman's report, and he also gave the need of other funds for special research work. The Department of Education enrollment from 449 in 1916-17, a typical "before-the-war" year, to 650 in 1920-1, was one of the features of the report of Dean Perley F. Walker, of the School of Engineering, who reported that the education that school much exceeded the unit.
