"MUST AMERICANIZE"
SAYS RUBY D. GARRETT
"Radicals Must Accept Our Ideals or be Sent Back to Russia"
Parade Two Miles Long
NUMBER 142.
Haskell Institute Wins Chamber of Commerce Prize for Best Float
"Americanization of every individual in America is the ideal for which we must strive. Too many Americans have forgotten since the spelling of the armistice that they fought against began, We must Americanize the foreigner who comes over here to gain our privileges and earn our money; and everyone who refuses to fulfill his debt who prefers 'bolshevism' and radicalism to Americanism, should recognize that Americanism should have its fill of bloodthirsty revelry."
The crowd which filled the Bowers-scoat theatre Monday afternoon broke into applause as Colonel Ruby Bury of the 3rd Battalion made this plea for the accomplishment of the purpose of Americanization Day. A civil war veteran in the Army, Brigadier General Stars and Strippers, A. E. F., men in the audience responded voiferously.
"I have a great regard for the citizens of Lawrence, and for the University of Kansas because of the service we have done to them I came in contact with; and I am proud of it. Two men in particular, both of whom are in this audience, I admire for their clean, honest work in France," the speaker continued.
Mr. Garrett entertained the audience with stories of France and the Americans in France; he aroused their enthusiasm with tales of the French Revolution, and the "Yank"; he drew tears from mothers when he told of men who had made the supreme sacrifice for their country. He presented a neglected aspect of the value of America in the war; he remembered the perilous on the co-ordination of all armed troops which marked the turning point of the war. Above all he urged that every American remember his sacrifice as an allegation of the country to him.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LAWRENCE, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 4, 1920.
Garrett's speech came at the conclusion of the Americanization Day parade, one of the longest and most complete in the history of Lawrence. He spoke about the scores of motor cars, numbers of decorated floats and trucks, three bands, and members of the American Legion, Haskell Cadets, Haskell girls, the R. O. T. C., and whole companies of marching school chants. His speech confused confusion according to the schedule arranged by Roy Zieensie, chairman of the Legion committee which had charge of the celebration.
A float designed and entered by Haskell Institute students won the prize of $10 offered by the Chamber of Commerce for the best decorated float on the parade. It was on two motor trucks, showed first Indians of 1492 and 1920, students representing both Indians and Italian and Puritan explorers and colonists, with appropriate scenery effects and second the Indians of today. The feature of the second float was a sailor and a red cross nurse, each of whom was engaged in those respective branches of service during the war. This float also included an Indian girl using a typewriter, Indian football and baseball players, in uniform and other forms of modern am
Another effective float, entered by Liberty High School booster, showed a model of the prospective school with the inscription, "The Best Amenity for Your Child," operated by the grade schools, Hill organizations, andadt advertisers.
The prize for the best decorated motor car, offered by the Rotary Club, was won b y awn car decorated in yellow, yellow, and gold; the driver was dressed in a background. The occupants on the car, except the driver were dressed in white, with sunflower decorated paraos. The best decorated bicycle was ridden by a girl dressed as a red cross nurse; the driver was decorated in red, white and blue.

'LEAGUE OF NATIONS'
TO BE LECTURE TOPIC
Prof. C, D. Allen to Speak Wednesday for International Relations Institute
The University Forum and the Woman's Forum, through their affiliation with the Institute of International Education, of New York, obtain a degree in Computer Science. He comes to the University of Kansas for the purpose of forming here an International Relations Club, to be affiliated with the International institute in New York. Clubs have been formed already in more than 100 American universities, including Drake, Wisconsin, Missouri and Minnesota.
Convocation Wednesday afternoon will be addressed by Prof. C. D. A. Allen of the department of political science of the University of Minnesota, on the subject, "The Monroe Treaty and Relation to the League of Nations."
The object of the International Relations Clubs is the "scientific study of current international problems that confront mankind, in a thoroughly non-partisan spirit and devoid of any propaganda aim." Sylabi, of which I am a member of the literature for the study of these problems is provided by the Institute, which also sends from time to time, distinguished foreigners and American professors, who are authors in the field of international relations, to address the members of the clubs, and generally upon their special subject.
As soon as the work of these clubs is fully established at the University of Kansas all available information will all be brought under the direction of one head, so the speakers and teachers will be laid down, be had without too much duplication.
Professor Allin is a speaker of Nation wide note, and will be well worth hearing. General supervision of work for these groups will be centralized in the hands of Professors Chubb, Davis, and Melvin.
Gregory Pegues, c17, Visiting K. U. Henry P. Spegus, c17, is spending a few days in Lawrence visiting the department of Journalism. Mr. Pegues is a former editor-in-chief of the Daily Kansan.
S hardly after he graduated Mr. Pegues joined the army and went to France with the 35th division. He has been working in Kansas City in a department store the past few months, but will go to Hutchinson next week to accept work with the Pegues-Wright Co., there.
The "Neighbors", a play based on small town neighborly spirit, was presented before the Dramatic Club, where she played in the play for the three members of the cast who were not already members. All three were admitted to member-entry; new members are Gladys Jordan, Johnny Jorvain and Joseph Garrison.
Candidates Formally Refuse Word Battle
The assertion that the platforms of the "Crimson and Blue" and the "Reconstruction" tickets are practically identical was given as the reason for Fraser's decision to accept a challenge to debate in Fraser Chapel tonight on issues of the campaign, in a signed statement by Guy Daniels and Dick McKeen candidates for president and vice-president, to discuss the "Reconstruction" ticket.
The statement also said that at the time the challenge was issued, the time of release was on a concert, on the night specified, for some two months previous.
The statement:
"We the undersigned candidates for President and Vice-president of the Student Council, hereby declare the "challenge" of Messrs. Tracy and Vooroes for an open debate for the following reasons:
1. the platform of the Recon-
struction and Crimson and Blue tickets are practically identical--there
are conflicts of issues as expressed therein.
2. This being the case, a debate between the opposing sides could but degenerate into an attack upon the characters and personalities of the respective-candidates, and this we decline to become a party to.
"Campaign movies" taken last Friday of some of the "Reconstruction" candidates and backers were shown last night at one of the downtown theatres. The pictures will be Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
Handbills were circulated by both tickets after rthe 11:30 classes this noon.
Plain Tales From The Hill
Because of the undue publicity given the editor of this column during his absence he has been accused of aspiring to become a king. He pleads not guilty to this charge.
Which is the lesser evil, a pathworn campus or one carpeted entirely with dandelions?
The anti-path signs are quite affective. At least they make pedestrians go around the old paths, whence they walk on the sidewalks or on new paths.
The only criticism heard on the
signs was that of Judge J. C. Ruppen-
thai who said he much preferred the
one. Please give the grass j'chance.
The next sign that ought to be erect—when the political posts clear out so there will be enough room—should be, "Motor cars keep to the parking; don't disturb the cinder trail."
CHEMICAL ENGINEERS WIN CHAMPIONSHIP
Engineering School Champions Decided by Baseball Game Field Day
The baseball game decided the champions of the School of Engineering in the field day carnival which took place Friday afternoon, April 30. Total points won both by the electrical engineering team and twenty-five to twenty-five and the final ball game was the deciding factor which gave the chemical engineers the championship cup offered by Ober's. Two other cups offered for the relay game by Coach Allen and Mr. R. J. Cowley, also to the chemicals.
The junior-senior electrical engineers were awarded the prize for having the best float in the Parade Friday morning. A miniature model resolved by electricity was the central figure of the float, while the words, "Electricity Moves the World," blazed from the sides of the float. The architectic work of architecture and several historic persons posed upon it. The judges were from the faculty in the School of Engineering.
"Much good feeling and a spirit of fellowship characterized the whole day," said Mr. Bell, able on the field," and Arnold Bell, manager of the Engineer field. "Marshall Haddock, e'21, was easily the high point man in all events in the past."
Will Give Senior Refund Tuesday
Prof. H. G. Ingham said today that refunds on senior capers and gowns will be paid Tuesday, May 4. Receipts must be brought to Mr. Ingham's office, 115 Fraser. Cap and gown orders will be taken up by May 12.
