SHERIDAN PLOUGHE TALKS TO JOURNALISM STUDENTS Veteran Kansas Newspaper Man and Former Student Tells of Early Naps in Ancient Chairs Sheridan Ploughe, of Hutchinson, secretary of the legislative commission of the National Editorial Association, and founder of the Hutchinson Gazette, addressed students of the department of journalism yesterday afternoon. Mr. Ploughe formerly was a student at the University of Kansas, and gave some interesting talks here. He remembered "Bill" White as the "laziest white man who ever went to school." “And these are the same chairs I occupied in 1884,” remarked Mr. Plough, as he surveyed the equipment room of the physiology department. In his address Mr. Plough pointed out that words were the tools of the newspaper man, and his most important concern. "A building three hundred years old is an old building, he said," but most words we use are as old as the history of human speech. They are clothes with all the joy, the sadness, life itself and the woe, the happiness of all mankind. "And we should gain accuracy in the use of words, and use them discriminating. Young writer, read Addison, for style, and read the old King James version of the Bible for the rest of our books' words. The best examples of perfect narrative are in the old testament books in the Bible." ECTURES ON "NORTHWEST" William Bruce Leffingwll Tells o Beauties of Pacific America in Illustrated Address William Bruce Leffingwell lectured to a crowd of seven hundred persons on the "Pacific Northwest" last night in Fraser Hall. Mr. Leffingwell is a strong advocate of the "See America First," idea and urged his audience to visit the places of interest and beauty in their own country before going to Europe to find the beautiful. Mr. Leffingwell accompanied his talk with illustrations of Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Yellowstone Park, Portland, Ore., and Seattle, Wash. In addition to these slides, two reels of motion pictures were shown. These pictures dealt with apple culture in Oregon and showed the method of cultivation of this crop in the Northwest. J. D. DEACON LECTURES ON VITAL STATISTICS J. D. Deacon, statistician for the state board of health, delivered the last of a series of three lectures to the annual Pital Statistics' yesterday afternoon. An interesting point brought out in connection with the Topeka statistics was the fact that the negro race has practically no suicides, but a large number of homicides, while the Caucasians do not kill many of their fellows, but a great number of them commit suicide. The student branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers will meet at the home of Dean Walker, 1301 Ohio St., at 7 o'clock this evening. Plans will be discussed for Engineers' day. Claude L. Corgins will present on "Automobiles," and D. Bartram Klehege will read a technical report. Mechanicals to Meet The Civil Engineering Society will meet tonight at 8 o'clock in Marvin Hall. Two papers will be read, one in "Experiences in Office and Field Work," by Harold E. Wheelock, and he other on "A Concrete Example of irrigation by Swage: The City of Valla Walla, Washington, and the Valla Walla Friangion Co." by Prof. V, C. McNoun. Civils Meet Tonight KANSAS TOWNS QUIZ REFERENCE BUREAU Question University Municip al Division on Recall and City Management With the coming of spring the small towns of Kansas have come out of their frozen stage and are swamping the Municipal Reference Bureau of the University with questions on burning local issues. Last month there were twenty-five Kansas towns and fifteen outside towns who shunted their knotty problems onto the Bureau. Most of the inquiries were from third class towns, only three being from first class and seven from second. The officials were making many of the officials of these cities but one editor and one librarian are found in the list. The questions cover every field of municipal troubles, only a few inquiries being duplicated. The problem which seems to be causing the biggest stir is the recall. Six towns in England are the recall of its. The next in importance is the action of a city manager. This is a comparatively new office which is attracting a great deal of attention. The city manager is a man who really runs the city under the direction of the city council. Two towns much interested in the manager plan while others made slight inquiries. K. U. GRADUATE INJURED WHEN A TANK EXPLODED Doctor Cross is city chemist and has been working for months on a process for making gasoline out of crude oil. Dr. Walter M. Cross, a chemist who was graduated from the Univerdert Tuesday afternoon in Kansas in 1899, met with a painful acetyl pressure tank with which he exerted pressure in a vacant lot near Twelfth street and Crystal avenue exploded. Doctor Cross, who stood thirty feet south of the tank when the explosion occurred, was burned about 20 minutes later and was taken to the University Hospital. His condition is not dangerous. Y. W. GIRLS MAKE PLANS FOR SUMMER CONFERENCE TO WORK ON HEALTH AND MENTABILITY OF STUDENTS Plans were discussed for the Y. W. C. A.

Merit Carr, Carr Spangler, and Agnes Conrad. During Dr. Naismith's absence in New York, his class in Anthropometry will work on the problem of the relation between the physical good health of the student and his mental condition. Leila Nevin, Bertha Mix, and Elizabeth Lovejoy will help them students and J. R. Wiley and C. E. Williamson will work out those of the men students. Etta Smith was elected editor-in-chief of the Achth magazine at the third annual convention of the sr. president University of Illinois March 20-22. ELECTED EDITOR-IN-CHEF OF ACHOTH MAGAZINE The women instructors of the University will entertain in honor of Mrs. Eustace Brown with a reception at Miss Gibbin this afternoon from four to six. HAWK CLUB WILL PUT ON SHOW THIS SPRING Organization Unanimous In Decision—Two Comedies Under Consideration A motion to put on a play this spring was unanimously carried at the meeting of the Hawk Club last night. Manager Henry Anderson said that the answers to a circular question about the oracle and the consensus of student opinion was for a Hawk production. "We have two excellent comedies under consideration and expect to announce the name of the play to be given and the date of the tryout next week." said Anderson this afternoon. We are more than pleased with our efforts, but now can assure the students that the production given will be one of the best ever seen at the University." KRAUTHOFF ENDS LECTURES K. C. Lawyer Delivers Last of Seri- ties to Laws This Afternoon Mr. Edward A. Krauthelm, of Kansas City, delivered the last of his series of lectures to the students of the School of Law this afternoon at The University of Texas. The students of the school passed the following resolution today: We, the students of the law school of the University of Kansas, who during the past few weeks, have listened to the most interesting addresses delivered by Mr. Edwin A. Krautoff, co-chairman of that considerable personal inconvenience that he has left his work and spent the afternoons with us, and fully appreciating the fact that from his intensely practical lectures we have gathered many points of interest that attestable value to us in the practice; Therefore, we, the students of this school, desire in this manner to express our appreciation to Mr. Krafthoff and to extend to him a vote of thanks for his most excellent addresses Committee: Ralph H. Spotts. Frank M. McClelland, THREE CANDIDATES OUT FOR COUNCIL MEMBERSHIP A petition is being circulated in the School of Law today to nominate James McKay, a junior, as a candidate member of the Student Council. Walter Rockwell, a freshman in the College, announced his candidacy for the Student Council this morning. Later John C. Greenstreet, a junior in the School of Law, announced Wednesday that he would be a "Birds and Bird Music," is the sub- title of Henry O'Dyke's lecture, which will be held at the Metropolitan Opera. Mr. Oldy has been in the department of agriculture at Washington; D.C., for several years and has had charge of the preservation of birds and game in the United States. During his work with the department he made an intense study of birds and their music. HENRY OLDY WILL TELL ABOUT BIRDS IN CHAPEI Roscoe Redmond and Jake Lind-say, members of one of the senior committees, have turned in their applications to Walter Holloway, president of the class. SENIOR COMMITTEEME HAND IN RESIGNATION They give us their reason the fact that they do not wish to identify issues in an administration when policies are fundamentally different from theirs. Phi Kappa Psi will give a party at Ecke's Hall, April 24. Adopt Resolution at Mixer Last Night Advising First Year Men to Rescind Action That the members of the freshman class should rescind their action in refusing to wear caps was the import of a resolution unanimously passed at the first medic mixer of the cold last night at the Kelza house. One of the features of the evening's entertainment was the music and songs given by the medic quartet. This was the first tryout of the band, and one of the members of the school and it was pronounced a success by those present. Plans were made for a similar mixer to be given at a later date. The next mixer however, is to be a larger and more elaborate affair. CONFERENCE WANTS COLLEGE Join. Colleges of Eastern Kansas to Invite University of Kansas to The College will be invited to join a new Kansas athletic conference, about to be formed by the College of Emporia, Emporia Normal, Washburn, and Ottawa, according to a memo sent to the "Ottawa Campus" yesterday. Others which will be invited to join the conference are Manhattan College, and Baker. These decisions were made at a meeting of the representatives in Topeka Saturday, when the organization was formed. The organization was not made a permanent one on account of the fact that the schools already have their football schedules made out to be played under the old constitution, but expect to be in running order by the first of the next conference year beginning about December 1, 1915.

WILL ENFORCE REGULATION Maude Lourey, President of Association, Says W. S. G. A. Will! Try to Make Rule Effective Too few women voted at the W. S. G, election today to alter the rule for voting in South Carolina. At four o'clock fewer than 400 ballots had been cast, and 450 votes, or a majority of the women students, or a majority of the presidents, the rule before it can be abolished. Two questions were on the ballot: Shall we abolishe mid-week date rule? Shall the date of election of S. G. A. officers be left to the dis- closed at four aternoon, and ballots will be counted tonight. According to Maude Lourey, president of the Council, today's voting was very close. "The University Senate has given the W. S. G. A. power to enforce the rule," she said. "Things stand now just as they did before, except that the sentiment of the women will be determined. If the majority favor retention of the rule, and I have no doubt they do, we can do much more to enforce it, knowing that we are backed by student sentiment." Miss Loureey said that the rule would be enforced. "Several times we have had violators of the rule before the association, but we have never done more than reprimand them. Henceforth, however, we will put forth every effort to make the rule effective." TO ENTERTAIN STUDENTS AS WELL AS ADVISE THEM The committee on lecturers and chapel talks is planning to get men here to entertain the students as well as to give them advice. Next Tuesday, March 31, Henry Oldys will give a talk on birds. Mr. Oldys has a thoroughly scientific knowledge of birds and presents his lecture with imitations of all kinds of birds. For the last assembly this year efforts are being made to obtain Charles Zebulin, author, and publicist of Boston. The fact that he is known in the country and one of the best known in the country assumes a good talk. ENFORCER OF BLUE SKY LAW TO LECTURE FRIDAY Carl Peterson, assistant bank commissioner of Kansas, who was unable to lecture on "Blue Sky Legislation" last week will deliver his address in the lecture room of Snow Hill School. H. P. Wright, of Kansas City, Mo., was scheduled to speak on this date, but was called to Colorado Tuesday. MRS. BROWN WANTS MEN TO COME TO CHAPEL TOO Phi Gamma Delta will entertain a dance at the chapter house, April 17. Mrs. Brown will take occasion in her chapel talk Friday to outline some of her plans for next year relating to the social life of the staff and to be pleased to have the young men present as well as the young women.
