Plan to Erect Tablet In Honor of Kansan's Sacrifice Gains Favor
Authorities Sanction Move to Help Commemorate Name of Fitzsimons
According to present indications, definite action will be taken soon in regard to the erection of a memorial to Lieut. W. T. Fitzsimons, the first K. U. student to lose his life in the European battlefield and the first American to die under Old Glory. Chancellor Strong this morning said he was heartily in favor of a memorial of some kind, either to be erected by the family or by him. He was unaccompanied as to the type of memorial and also as to its cost.
Registrar George O. Foster is of the opinion that if anything is done, a memorial tablet similar to the one for Lieut. Alfred C. Afford, the K. student who gave his life in the Spanish-American war, would be put up.
Lieutenant Alford, of the class of '96, was killed in action February 7, 1898. A bronze tablet, costing about $600, was put on the south wall of the chapel. A similar tablet for Lieutenant Fitzsimons could also be placed in the chapel, according to Mr. Foster.

Extra! Extra! Kappas
Pledge Helen Cook
A year ago the papers were carrying toy-heads on the Kappa violation of Pan-Hellenic rules in the alleged lifting of Chi Omega pledge colors worn by the beauty contest winner, Michelle Rochet, members of the sisterhood the wearers of the golden key were ousted from the council.
This fall the Kappas have been making good use of their opportunities and the light blue and dark blue ribbons have been appearing on Mount Oread on some promising freshman every day or two long before the "bid-wagon" of the other sororities was even hitched up.
The Pan-Hellenic last fall forbid the Kappas to pledge a meal Cook for a year, which ruling they observed. the hardship worked the new plumage, not a car. All privileges of the sisterhood on the southeast corner of Mount Oread were extended to the freshman and the mere mention of her name was good for a story—a rehash of the old trouble—any time last year.
But now those good old days are
