CAN'T JOIN AT COLLEGE Resolution Bars High School Sorority Girls From Joining at University American high schools girls belonging to Greek letter sororities who do resign before November 15, 1914, will be barred from joining a like organization upon entering college. This resolution was passed by the thirteenth congress of the National Pan-Hellenic at New York Saturday In the meantime, "I am heartily in favor of the action of the congress," said Chancellor Strong on the subject this morning, "and I feel sure that the sorority women at the University feel the same way." The opinion of the delegates, representing seventy thousand sorority women in the United States, was that most high school girls are too young to be members of such secret organizations. Their conduct leading to the formation of undesirable cliques, developed snobbishness in many in- uses, it was asserted, and many girls became members against the wishes and without the knowledge of their parents. ACCOUNT BOOKS ARE COMING NO CONVOCATION TOMORROW Mistake Made in Friday's Daily Kansan - Meet Next Week Through a mistake in information it was stated in Friday's issue of the Daily Kansan that convocation would be held tomorrow, and that Shayne Guilick, of Chicago, will speak. Such is not the case. Convocation will be held until next Tuesday, and there is no certainty of Mr. Guilick addressing the University. Student Organization Blanks Now at Topeka The books for the accounts of the student organizations at the University are at the office of Secretary of the Board of Administration, D. M. Bowen, at Topeka, and will be shipped to the University this week. This was the information received by Registrar George O. Foster, this morning.

BLACKMAR "The development of each of the social sciences into a separate department is the trend of the times," says Dean F. W. Blackmar in an article in the September American Journal of Sociology. "Sociology, the last of the main disciplinary developed, like the ones has a central idea of the own, but must be broadened to include many subfields and many lines of work. The whole aim is to ground sociology in general utility and social service." general discussion Dean Blackmar's article included an outline of social studies as given at K. U. Total enrollment in the Oread high school up to the present time has reached 157. Of this number 66 are regular high school students and doing full high school work. The rest are for the most part University student groups, bringing up entrance to a few are taking the work to get teachers' certificates. These are the only ones not receiving credit for their work. OTHER STATES IN UNION WANT KANSAS TEACHERS Information in the offices of W. H. Johnson, high school visitor, shows that teachers from the University of Kansas are interested in many states besides Kansas. During the past year requests for teachers have come from twenty states: Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Idaho, Colorado, Oregon, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, Kentucky, Mississippi, California, Indiana, Wyoming, Montana, California, Indiana, Arkansas, Iowa, and Kansas. The total number of requests was 466 and the number of schools applying was 25.5. WE MUST GO HOME IF SICK But the State Agricultural College Furnished Physician Free Ross E. Busenbark, a junior in the College, speaking of his recent attack of pneumonia, says that if he had been at the Kansas Agricultural College he would not have been compelled to go home in order to properly run the proper nurse. The services of the city in the city would have been, at his call, free of charge. had the system been in vogue at the University when Mr. Busenbark was taken ill he could have received proper medical treatment without the expense and exposure of a journey home. The system has proved successful at the Agricultural College because an ailing student is often saved the expense and exposure of a journey home, and it is held in high esteem by the undergraduate body. At the Agricultural College each student is required to pay a fifty cent medical fee at the time of his enrollment. These fees are charged by phone numbers of the city and town are required to answer student calls at any time. UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS MONDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 19, 1914 THE FACE WITH THE SCARS Wild Oats Sown in Youth Leave Their Marks, Savs Rev, B. E. Bacus Besides this the College supports a hospital which is free to the students of the institution and offered admission to any complaining student. "I tell you that this theory that a young man, can sow wild oats and reap harvests of strength was made in Hell," declared Rev. E. B. Bachus of the Unitarian church in his sermon-story, "The Face with the Scars," at the Y. M. C. A. meeting yesterday afternoon. "We pay too much for our experiences," he continued. "To have been a drankard may give us a better understanding of the vileness of drunkenness but it leaves scars on our face. It is not necessary that men should be vile that they may find that there is vileness. There is a value in being clean." **Lecture Based on Facts** The lecture was in the form of a story based on facts. A popular young German university, later years of duality and fast living awoke to that he had missed coming in his search for the best, and there is a sermon in his denunciation of a misspent youth. GOT AN OLD HYDROGENATOR LYING AROUND THE ROOM Before the lecture Benjamin Baltzer sang a solo, "Lead Kindly Light." Has any student a hygrogenator in hi sroom that he is not using? Dean L. E. Sayre of the School of Pharmacy wants one. The only one that he knows of is behind the trenches in Germany and present conditions make it rather hard to obtain. This piece of apparatus is needed to carry on the corn-oil investigations started by Dean Sayre last spring. Extensive investigation has been made among some of the businesses able locations of the plant, but to no avail. Dean Sayre went to Kansas City Saturday in the hopes of finding what he wanted in one of the many laboratories there, but the Kansas City chemists said, the Kansas Far ahead in this line of investment. As a result the Dean has written to Washington, D. C., in an effort to locate the apparatus. Alage trown They drug laboratories are raising a culture of algae in one of their large class condensors.

BOULEVARD POSSIBILITIES ARE NEARER THAN EVER Plans for Better Campus Roads Will Receive Much Attention at Committee Meetings "University boulevards are one of the necessities for making the campus here, among the most beautiful of university grounds," declared Chancellor Frank Strong today. "The Board has been discussing University boulevards for many years but at the present time the possibility of having the desired driveways appears much nearer." A committee, composed of Chancellor Frank Strong, Professors Stevens, Griffin and Goldsmith and John M. Shea, Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds, has been organized and although the campus in general will receive much attention from the committee, the boulevards will be the most important topic to be discussed at committee meetings. Chancellor Strong said that the Boud had not dared to make specific plans in regard to couvleards on account of lack of funds, but when the annual budget is made it will be possible to ascertain just how much may be expended for road purposes. According to Doctor Strong, most of the campus driveways have a foundation and only a slight amount of work the streets could be afforded to receive a paving of asphalt. There are about two and one-half miles of campus driveways and it has been estimated that the cost of paving would not exceed $6,000 a mile.

Hamilton to wear his sweater during the days until the Aggie game, when the finale will be offered in the form of a section set aside in the bleachers for the "K" men and their "dates." Prof. Raymond A. Schwegler, of the department of education, may be called as regular pastor of the Federated Church at Ottawa. The matter is under advisement of the federated board of deacons, who as yet have taken no definite action. This will not sever his connection with the University. Mr. Schwegler was formerly on the Ottawa faculty, and for some months served as pastor of the Congregational church at that place. Mav Assume Pastorate Sergeant Allen Sterling, of Company M., First Infirmary, K. N. G., placed fifth in the Kansas state rifle shoot held at Fort Riley recently.

Geologists Have New Lamp UNION TO MIX 'EM AGAIN Campaign to Have Principal Event a College Freshman Mixer The third week of the Union camp paign will have as its principal event a mixer given at the Union building Thursday night to the freshmen of the College. The program for the evening's entertainment will be announced in tomorrow's issue of the Daily Kansan. The object of the mixer, which will be of the usual form, is to interest the freshmen of the largest School in the Union. So far the first-year men seem to regard the enterprise as some kind of graft. The mixer of last Wednesday night dispelled this motion with a fear of the men but Chairman Creation, of the Union feels that a larger part of the freshman class has not been reached. Hence the mixer Thursday night. W. S. G. A. Entertains Landlades The W. S. G.

The score was 32 to 7 Kansas spent most of its time on the defensive, depending upon Lindsay's kicking to bring the ball within striking distance of the Drake goal. Straight football was all Coach Wheaton offered but that was too much for the Baptists. Kansas scored four touchdowns, two goals and two kicks from placement while Drake crossed the Crimson and Blue line for a touchdown. K. U. Had Game From First K. U.

Kansas BEST in the STROTHERS opened the game in the third quarter by kicking another goal from placement. Dewler, who has been hit by Gray, returned to the game and ripped off several long gains which put Russell in a position to score the second touchdown.

The kicking attack proved its worth from the beginning. The Kansas line smothered the speedy Drake backs and with the exception of a few short passes, the Bulldogs were helpless against the Jayhawker defence. NOT ONE MAN WAS THERE The date of the next dance has been announced, but it is probably Genus Homo Unnecessary. Say Midy Dancers="Vote 200 to 0."

It will be taught as a part of the regular gymnastic work. The department aims to teach every student how to swim. Classes will probably have to be divided in order to enable those who know nothing about it to have an equal opportunity. Swimming may later be put on a par with other athletic sports. No Credit for Swimming Two hundred girls in middies street suits and afternoon frocks danced in Robinson Gymnasium Saturday afternoon as guests of the W. S. G. A. The occasion was the "midly dance" of the year. The crowd included all expectants. The girls' waltzed, two stepped, hesitated, lame ducked, castle walked, and grand marched with as much enthusiasm as a slightly rough floor permitted. After every舞 they flocked to the corner where punch (cider) and wafer's nuts), were served, at 30 'oel clock the audience, in orchestra, to whom many thanks are due, adjourned sine die, and the dancers followed suit.

LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES ARE IN FAVOR OF MILL TAX Newlin, Elliott, and Hartley Reply to Kansan Inquiries Concerning Position in Regard to Mill Tax Answers to inquiries sent to the candidates for the state legislature from this district by the Daily Kansan shows that at least three of the aspirants are heartily in favor of the mill tax, and will work for it in the legislature next year. The other four candidates are not answered but won't attend out yet. As soon as their replies come to the office they will be published. J. M. Newlin, present representative, simply said that he would keep up the work that he had carried on for the University. Mr. Newlin has been a member of the legislature from this district to the state and the last session introduced the mill tax amendment to the constitution. Sherman Elliott was in South America at the time of the receiving of the Kansas' inquiry, and Mrs. Elliott answered for him. She said: "I am sure Mr. Elliott will do all he can for the upbuild of the University of Kansas. I am sure he will be in favor of the mill tax" F. M. Hartley writes as follows: "As a resident of Kansas, I take great pride in the standing of our state schools and, especially as a Douglas county citizen, feel fortunate to be the welfare of our state university, and I am heartily in favor of the mill tax, as a means to advance its best interests. "I have given some little attention to the work of the legislature heretofore and have wished that some law could be passed that would obviate the necessity of the school authorities spending their time every day insee that the state university and other state institutions receive adequate recognition by the legislature. The passage of a law making this tax levy for educational purposes, an established amount each year would accrue from the university authorities in employing instructors at salaries that would keep them in Kansas, and provide equipment and improvements as needed." A Correction It was stated in last Monday's issue of the Daily Kansas that Mariabelle Dyche has been appointed to the farce committee of the junior class. The statement was a mistake. The name should have been Ruth Dyche. Prof. W. H. Johnson spent last week inspecting high schools in various parts of the state.
