UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN NUMBER 151. VOLUME XIV. K. U. SHOULD LOOK TO REPLACING WAR LOSS Universities Must Care for Social Reconstruction, Says Mrs. Cora Lewis UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 11, 1917. STUDENTS SHOULD HELF Passage of Income Amendment is Necessary to Success of State Schools "Universities must prepare to do their work in the social reconstruction which will follow the war," said Mrs. Cora G. Lewis of the Board of Administration in convolution this morning, and to ensure that its work efficiently the passage of the permanent income amendment is necessary." "Every University student and every alumnus who has not enlisted for military service should entail in their budget the permanent income amendment. ORGANIZATIONS CAN HELP "A campaign of education will be necessary to convince the people of Kansas that the permanent income amendment is necessary and we welcome an efficient organization will be necessary. Woman's clubs, farmers' organizations, churches, every state association should be acquainted with the needs of the state institutions by students. "Because of the war a large part of the work will have to be done by women. The work must begin now in order to be effective." SHOULD EDUCATE STATE PEOPLE "Kansas, one of the wealthiest states in the union, has forgotten its state institutions in the time of greatest prosperity. Arkansas and Oklahoma are the only states which appropriate less money for the maintenance of schools by the last legislature, $4,000,000 for all state institutions, equaled the money spent for motor cars in one week by Kansas." A tendency to measure the value of everything in material terms is the greatest fault of the present generation, Mrs. Lewis said. The service which graduates run efficiency state cannot be measured by efficiency committees. SENIORS ADMITTED TO BA "It is the duty of a university first to lead the people to love it and then to influence the people to appreciate its ideals. It should teach them to spend their money for beautiful public buildings, parks, good pictures, good music, for everything that means a better education." Twenty-two Men Passed Special Examination Yesterday Before Leaving for Fort Riley Twenty-two Senior Law students were admitted to the Kansas bar in a special examination given in Topeka yesterday for those who intend to join some part of the army immediately. The regular bar examination is given in June, but on account of the large number of law students in the University and at Washburn who will attend the Reserve Officers' Training Camp, a special examination was granted. Those admitted yesterday were: John A. Hettinger, John P. Flinn, John A. McLoughlin, J. M. Egan, L. Baker, J. E. Gaitkill, Paul H. Sauter, R. D. Sproul, A. Mitch- hern, J. W. Sproul, A. Mitch- hern, G. Beatty, J. Bowersock, E. Blincoe, A. L. Piepenburg, R Rader, Ivan A. Allen, H. F. Matton, Frank H. McFarland, George H. Beach, C. E. Carba, C. W. Baldwin The men were not given certificates, but if they are in military service next June when the other men are sworn in, they will receive their certificates by writing. However, if they are not in some kind of military service then, they will have to take the regular examination. NO CHANGE IN DANCE RULES SAYS MRS. BROWN "The dances given this week had special permission because many of the members of the organization giving the dance were leaving for Fort Riley." Mrs. Eustace Brown said this morning. "Next week the regular senate rules concerning dances will be in force." No change in the date rule has been made. To Attend Suffrage Convention Mrs. Frederick A. G. Cowper, wife of Professor Cowper leaves tonight to attend the Mississippi Valley Suffrage conference at Columbus, Ohio. Twenty-one states will be represented; six of them have partial victories to celebrate this year. Mrs. Cowper is to be one of the speakers. CHANCELLOR CONTRIBUTES ARTICLE TO GRAD PAPEI The three leading articles in the next Graduate Magazine will be written by Prof. W, C. Stevens, Chancellor Frank Strong, and Carolyn McNutt. Professor Stevens' article will deal with campus beautification. The Chancellor will discuss the plan of mobilization as it was proposed at the meeting of the National Council of Defense. The animal house will be the subject of Miss McNutt's "Seeing K. U." article. AHOKU SOCIETY NAMES NEW MEMBERS TODAY Organization Designed to Help Athletes Continue to Serve the University The AHOKU (Athletic Helpers of K. U.) the organization that was formed last year by the Athletic Association in conjunction with the heads of the various schools of the University, has elected the following students as members for the ensuing year: School of Law—Haroil Lynton, Walt Lynton, Jared Jackson, Kenneth Kenneth College. H. Merle Hill, Herbert Miller. G. Lynne, and Homer K. Richardson. School of Engineering — Joe R. Morschak, and Ray P. Walkers. and Ray P. Walkers. School of Pharmacy—Wesley M Childs. George "Potsy" Clark was elected honorary member. Officiers elected for next year were Grant (president); Warren Watts (secretary). The organization is honorary and men are chosen as members because of their scholastic ability to assist the students. Teachers must keep eligible for the different teams. "The AHOKU's," said Hake, "have exceeded anything that the founders had anticipated. The athletic coaches have nothing but favorable comments to make. The members of the schools as committees, with a chairman at their head, have been instrumental in keeping the athletes eligible for the various contests. The fact that only one athlete was declared ineligible during the entire year is proof of the work we have been doing."

To Give Alumni Dinner FIFTY-SEVEN MORE ARE CALLED TO FT. RILEY Officers' Training Camp Has Already Enrolled 122 Men From Lawrence Following the report on the campus yesterday that no more Lawrence men would be chosen for the Officers' Training Camp at Fort Riley, the announcement this morning that fifty- and sixty-men were called camp as a surprise. Laren man who receives a notice considers that his is lucky. In nearly every rooming house there are several applicants for the training camp, and consequently nearly everyone left behind some friend just as eager to go as he is. In some cases, one of two brothers, who applied together, is taken and the other is left. And so, while there is hilarious celebration in one rooming house where the camp has been received, there may be gooben in the room across the hall. 22 have been the men who have been called from Lawrence is 122. The great majority of these are University students, and the transfer wagons were busy in the student district hauling trunks all day. The general exodus is suggestive of the closing of school. 122 HAVE BEEN CALLED There is hardly a class on the Hill that has not contributed some men to the training camp. Many of the classes have fallen off heavily in attendance as the vacant seats testify. All student activities are likewise affected, and athletic events and other entertainments are poorly attended. Active training at the camp does not begin until Tuesday morning, but the men are making every effort to get installed at the camp this week. Some of the men who have been expecting a summons have had their trunks partially packed for several days. The following is the third list of names of those ordered to report at the meeting. C.

OWEN WILL PUBLISH NEW TEXTS University Women's Association's annual spring business meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. Frank Strong, Monday at 2:30. Prof. H. W. Humble's book on Insurance is cited as authority for a principle of insurance law by Justice H. L. Benson, of the Supreme Court of Oregon in a recent decision. "I have no doubt that this will convince the people of Oregon of the necessity for the recall of judges," said Professor Humble when his attention was called to the case. Two new Spanish texts will be published soon by Prof. A. L. Owen of the department of romance languages. The first, in press now, is "La Conjuración de veneña" by Francisco Martinez de la Rosa, the first play of the romantic period produced in Spain, 1834. It is a play in prose, which gives a vivid account of the great conspiracy. Venice of the Middle Ages in venice in the century. A biographical and critical study of the author, of whom nothing has been written in English before will precede the text. Chancellor Strong received notice today of his appointment on the advisory committee for war service of the Association of State Universities, which convened in Washington last week. The other members of this committee appointed by Guy Potter Benton of the University of Vermont are: Charles R. Van Hise, president of the University of Wisconsin, Edmund J. James, president of the University of Illinois; A. Ross Hill, president of the University of Missouri. Law Prof's Work Authority Chancellor Gets Appointment The second which Prof. Owen has under contract will be an intermediate reader for Spanish students containing the famous old Spanish novel *Don Quixote* by william known characters of Spanish literature. The books will be published by Benj. H. Sanborn & Company of Chicago. SMALL AUDIENCE HEARS ST. LOUIS ORCHESTRA Music Pleased Those Who Attended Concert in Gymnasium Last Night The concert of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra last night at the Gymnasium drew a small but very appreciative audience. Charles E. Galagher sang a bass solo from the invocation of Meyerbeer's "Robert le Diable." His voice exceeded the expectations of the audience. He responded to applause with a charming encore. The second orchestral number, a suite from "Lalla Rookh," by Kroeger, was a delightful set of tone pictures, based on Thomas Moore's poem, "Lalla Rookh," the effect of which is oriental and mystic. Director Zach began the program with Tschalkowski's Symphony No. 5, in E minor, in four movements. Tschalkowski, although not the most Russian of composers, is undoubtedly the greatest of Russian pianists. The opening symphony is mystifying and the mystery of speaking of fate, hope and life. The subject is truly enobling and majestic. The second movement is slow, and the third light and swift, being based on dancing sixteenth note figures. In the fourth and last movement the opening motto returns, grows wilder and more melfanchy, as if seven devils had been let loose, and ends in a clattering and dazzling chorus. The richity of the program, no encores were given after orchestral numbers. Leonora Allen, the soprano soloist, sang an aria, "Depuis le Jour," from Charpentier's opera, "Louise." She very graciously sang two beautiful vocal pieces in a wonderfully clear soprano voice, of most colorful and pleasing quality. The concert closed with a semi-popular number, the overture to Wagner's romantic opera, "Tannhauser." It began with the Pilgrims' Hymn and portrayed the departure of Tannhauser to the ariel land of "Being No More," ending with a return to the Pilgrims' Hymn. TEACH FRENCH TO OFFICERS Professor Appelboom's Services Hav Been Offered to Government as Ft. Riley Instructor The variety and amount of the work which Professor Appelbom will do at the camp will be left in the hands of the War Department at the request of the Dean. The University will pay the salary of the instructor to the students, but the expenses while he is in camp the same as it does the other men. The University of Kansas has sent word to Major-General Barry at Chicago offering the services of Prof. P. A. F. Appelboom as a teacher of French language, history, customs, and sports; and going to the Officers' Reserve Training camp which opens at Ft. Riley this week. Dean Oil Templin of the College has received a reply from the department at Chicago saying the letter has been sent to the War Department at Albany and thanking the University for offering the services of Professor Appelboom. Professor Appelbom is a graduate of the naval academy of Holland. He was commended to the department at Chicago as an excellent student and teacher. He was eight years in the Dutch navy, three years in Paris and two years in Berlin. The offer of the university is part of the mission to place at the disposal of the government the trained teachers and experts of the teaching staff of the school in any way that will aid the nation in the war. Prof. P. A. F. Appleboom of the department of romance languages who gave some lectures at the University of Michigan and Calvin College, Grand Rapids, Mich., last month with the aim of encouraging the study of the Dutch language and history received the request that his thesis be published. The study of Michigan should be published for the benefit of the Hollanders in that state. It will soon be issued by Erdman and Sevensmn of Grand Rapids. Mechanical Engineers Elect To Publish His Lecture The University of Kansas branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers held the final meeting of the year last night at 1122 Ohio street. The following officers were elected for the coming year: honorary chairman, Dean P. F. Walker; chairman, J. R. Pattinson; vice-chairman, Paul Bressem; recording secretary, Roland Wolfe; treasurer, J. R. Mahan; corresponding secretary, Fred Bonehack; governing board for the Kansas Engineer, Paul Bressen and Fred Bonehack. Miss Dorothy Spencer of Concordia is the guest of Edna Lamb, c.20. Plain Tales from the Hill No dogs allowed at the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra concerts. That sign should be posted on the doors of all auditoriums where they play. Yes, it was a yapping dog that interrupted the Technikowsky's Symphony in E Flight. The conductor Conductor Zach to lose his customary calm and unimpassioned manner. Lost: The individual who cracks the usual joke about "reserve corpse" No reward is offered. There is a carnival company in town, Honest. And there is a tent there where Forty-niners, look just like the gold-rush days too, dance every night to a barbarian melody. But hush, the Forty-niners of Monday night looked suspiciously like the Phi Kappas. And Wednesday night like the Phi Psis. And last night like the Pi U brothers. Next? Social and personal: The carnival and a Gamma Phi Beta dance will be at Woodland Park Saturday night. Lawson May, editor of the Plain Tales column went to Kansas City early this morning to meet a homeowner who had to return before noon. He has not. A sure sign of spring—small attendance at convocation. But there was another reason this morning. The 500 students who have withdrawn because of the war, make a big gap in Fraser Hall. There was a young lady named Jean, Said, "I'm patriotic, I ween For my country I'd night By both day and night By both day and night But for it I could not eat a bean. Ormond Hill, one of the first K. U. contingent called to Fort Riley, found time the first day to write back a fifty word note to Lawrence. "I just came up from dinner and believe me they feed you," he said. "I am sitting on my bunk writing this on my suit case. The reading room hasn't been fixed up yet so we have to loaf in the dorm. I am in a dorm with about twenty fellows. There are five or six from K. U. including Pluky Friend, W. W. Davis and Nigg." Two hundred and twenty-one members of the faculty, not including their wives and children, have joined the Red Cross, Professor Van der Vries is working hard to make the number one thousand. Raymond Clapper, graduate from K. U. department of journalism in 1916, writes the Kansan that he has been appointed Northwest bureau manager of the United Press. This bureau serves Minnesota, portions of Wisconsin, the Dakotas, Montana, Iowa, and Western Canada. He says he believes work in the department of journalism at this University means a lot to every man who expects to enter newspaper work. Sigma Tau, professional engineering fraternity, gave their annual banquet at Brickens' Tuesday. Prof. C. C. Williams was toastmaster. The speakers were: Professor Wirt of Manhattan, Professor Sluss, Professor Whitaker and C. F. Sloan, B. I. Bower, L. M. Lull, and K. C. Veeder. STUDENT DAY IS MAY 2 Speakers From All Schools to Talk at Final Convocation of Year— Elect Representatives Now Student Day, the get-together time for all the schools in the University, is May 25. Then students from every school meet at conventation in Fraser Chapel, and speakers tell the plans of their school for the next year. These representatives are to be elected immediately. Student Day is Friday, just before quiz week, and it is the last opportunity for the whole University to get together this year. Plans are being made by the different schools to elect their speaker. Representatives from the College, Schools of Law, Engineering, Medicine, Pharmacy, and Department of Journalism will be on the program. CHARLES GRIESA SUGGESTS PREPARING FOR TRENCHES "Some of the war fund for Company M could well be spent for rubber boots, if the men are going to see actual service in the trenches," Charles Griesa told the students in convocation this morning. "The French government furnished no snow boots for its men during the winter campaign. This meant thousands of cases of 'trench feet' for the hospitals, often resulting in amputation." W. B. Brown Ill Griesa was with Section 65 of the American Ambulance Field Service, with her husband, Dr. Robert Griesa. W. B. Brown, superintendent of the Journalism Press, is ill at his home It is likely that he will be able to return to his work early next week. FOSTER'S RULING GETS VIRTUALLY NO RESULT Prom and Soph Hop Statements Have Not Been Turned in to Registrar Foster PROM ACCOUNTS BURNED All Records of This Year's Big Social Event Lost in Pi U. Fire No statements have been turned in to Registrar Foster since his recent order that all student organizations must submit a written statement of his qualifications as member of the Soph Hop, made one statement but this was done before Registrar Foster decided it was necessary for the managers of student enterprises to show receipts for any bills which appeared in their statements. Since the first statement was made Mr. Bell has made no further statement and declares to Registrar Foster that Frank Gage took all receipts with him when he was called home by the illness of his mother. Mr. Bell was appointed to serve in the place of Frank Gage, who was registered as a temporary appointment was necessary to fill his job. Howard Fleeson told Registrar Foster that all receipts and accounts of the Junior Prom were burned in the fire which destroyed the Pi Upsilon house in April. No statement of the account of the party was received from the managers of this year's Prom by the Registrar before the fire. The Prom was better attended this winter than ever before and the same price of admission, $7, was paid. Registrar Bell's estimate placed the attendance at 306. Hop this year at 232, but he said at the time he gave out his only statement, that he was not even present at the Hop, but that the figures were furnished by him Mr. Gage. There probably were 250 at the Hop and 300 at the Prom this year. The price of the Hop this spring was raised from $5 a couple to $5.50, and students who attended expressed the opinion that the expenses must have been much lower than any other time in the past. Prominent students declare they charged too much for the Hop and the Prom, when they compare the prices with those of other nearby universities and colleges. At the University of Nebraska they price the cost of the year costs $2.50 to $3.50 couple. At the University of Nebraska the admission is generally $4 to the big party. Men at K. U. estimate they could put on a dinner dance at Hotel Muehlebach, Kansas City for the price of the Prom. UNIVERSITY MEN PREFERRED In List for Officers' Reserve Corps State Schools are Best Represented—Same in Missouri The list of University of Kansas men who have been called to report at Fort Riley training camp is really a list of students from Lawrence would indicate. In the list from Columbia, Mo., are the familiar names of Woody and Peebles, names connected with the Missouri football eleven last fall. Among the names published this morning in addition to the Lawrence list are those of John C. Fast and J. A. Hettinger of Hutchinson; H. A. Garvie of Abilene; J. S. Dean and J. A. Weightman of Topeka and H. W. Verrison of Blue Rapids, all K. U. students. Fast and Vernon were regulars on the football team. The head of W. A. Pischer questioned out address, and Wilbur A. Fisher, senior in the department of journalism and former editor of the Daily Kansan is preparing to answer the question. RED CROSS AND Y. W. C. A. TO DIVIDE MAY FETE FUNDS The historical pageant given by the University Y. W. C. A. Tuesday afternoon was not the financial success of other years. Instead of giving the entire profit to the Y. W. C. A. budget fund as is customary, plans were made to give part of the profits to the Red Cross. The sum to be given was to be decided upon by the amount cleared. The sum to be made this decision Monday when it appoints the $170 taken at the Fete. War Bureau Class Changed The *Bureau Class* changed of the U.S. college teaching, which Professor Shaad has been giving under the direction of the Wax Bureau, will be given the rest of the year by L. E. Whittemore, instructor in physics. Instead of meeting in Marvin Hall the class will meet in U.S. College Hall the class will meet regularly at three-thirty o'clock Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
