UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Contestants Withdraw From K. U. Beauty Race
Twenty-two Women are Seeking Honor in "Our Kansas Girl" Rivalry
Half of the minines in the "Our Kansas Girls" contest withdrawed this morning, leaving the field to twenty-two candidates. The majority withdrew were sorority sisters of candidates, and withdrawed in order that their organization might center its votes on one candidate.
The following candidates remain in the contest: Frances Adams, Earline Allen, Harriet Brush, Marie Buchanan, Jessie Buck, Lila Clark, Hazel Cook, Drew Diveley, Helen Govier, Marion Holmes, Josephine Huoni, Mike Akon, Louise Lane, Lynn Lyman, David Paley, Rae Riley Fork Skar, Mylle Steen, Elisean Van Zandt, Genevieve Dorothy Wiggins, and Jessie Wwatt.
"Additional candidates may be placed in the race at any time by casting a balloon for them," said Don Davis, contest manager, in commenting on the progress of the race. "The names announced yesterday were those which had been presented in petitions; but we did not intend that only girls nominated by petition should be allowed to compete."
The number of ballots cast today in the ballot boxes, at the Jayhawker office and at the Jayhawker Bulletin Board, was large. The boxes will be opened this afternoon at 4 o'clock by Prof. L. N. Flint, and the initial standing of the contestants determined. Subsequent announcements of standings will be made daily. The list will be posted in the Jayhawker Bulletin Board.
By the Way
There were just six members of one fraternity with their Sunday night nights at one certain sorority house last night. No other fraternities represented. Complete monopoly is the word.

K. U. Orchestra Concert Will be Given Friday
Special Admission of Thirty-five Cents, but Student Tickets Are Good
Are Good
The first performance this year of the entire University Orchestra will take place Friday night, March 15, in Fraser Hall. Prof. Frank E. Kendrie will conduct the Orchestra. At present there are twenty-eight players: ten violins, one viola, two cellos, one bass, three flutes, two trumpets, one bassoon, two trumpets, one trombone, two horns, drums and organ.
An interesting program has been prepared, consisting of standard orchestral numbers. The soloists will be Mrs. Evelyn Olcott, mezzo-soprano Prof. W. B. Dalton, cellist, Ednah Hopkins, violinist.
"Admission will be 35 cents," said Professor Kendrie th's morning but student tickets will be accepted. Tickets will not be sold previous to the entertainment but will be on sale at the door.
Need Surgical Dressings No Reserve in France
"Every list of American wounder means more supplies needed by the American Red Cross in France," said Miss Margaret Lynn today in speaking of last week's work in the surgical dressing class, "and the attendance at the afternoon classes for University women has not been as good as it might be if the women realized the urgent demand for these compresses and other articles."
Miss Lymn said the room could accommodate twice as many workers as now attend. Various meetings held in the afternoon last week interfered with the usual amount of dressings made.
"It is not absolutely necessary for the girls to come all afternoon," continued Miss Lynn, "even one hour's work would contribute from 5 to 10 compresses, and we want to turn in 1,000 this week."
Anybody is welcome to come to the class any time between 3 and 6 o'clock. The American Red Cross has no reserve of compresses, and the hospitals are dependent upon the constant supply of them from America.
Checkmate Seat Sales
Give Red Cross $100
One-hundred dollars is the estimated amount to be given to the Red Cross from the seat sales of "The Checkmate." Because of back debts from the play, "Under Cover," of last year the contribution to the Red Cross is only half as large as it would otherwise be.
The total receipts for "The Checkmate" were five-hundred dollars. The expenses of putting it on amounted to three hundred dollars. Not all the bills have been sent in to Mr. Hull yet. He is preparing a financial report to be given to Registrar Foster today.
