ALPHA DELTA PHI GIRLS NOW AMPA DELTA PI W. Red Schreiner, whose mail reaches him at the Bureau of Lands, Philippine Islands, wants Kansai, Hawaii lands. He writes that at present he is engaged on a cedaral survey of Occidental Nerores. "A beautiful place, in rainy weather," he says, surrounded with haciendas, producing rice, sugar, hemp, and mestizos." Jessie Holcomb, of Parsons, sends us the glad news that life will not be worth living, all the world a vale of tears, and everything will be generously bad if she does not receive the Daily Kansas for the coming year. The name of the Alpha Delta Phi sorority was changed to "Alpha Delta Femenor." The name of its national convention in Chicago, June 18th. The name of the sorority was changed owing to the same name being possessed by a fraternal organization. The name "Alpha Delta Phi" was taken from "Adelphian," the former name of the sorority before it became a fraternity. The sorority and the fraternity was an eastern society, so that not until the sorority began to invade the north and west did a change become necessary. If the difficulties could be best avoided by striking out the "h" in "Phi" and making the name Alpha Delta Pi. The Debating Council will meet in room 110 Fraser Friday at 4:30 p.m. m. Representatives of all societies may be present at that time, sharp. Social Calendar The social calendar for the fraternities and sororities continues full. Following is a list of "coming events."

BUT THE GIRLS WERE NOT AT THE MEETING Affair Almost Twelve Were Present at First "Get Together" The mass meeting of the W. S. G. A. announced for today was called off by the president, Miss Maude Lourey, before a minority audience in the chapel at 11:30 o'clock. “However, the constitutions and by-laws are out and in effect just the same,” said Miss Lourie in reply to the question of week night dates. “The failure of the girls to be present at this meeting does not effect the authority of the university on the women of the University in the least.” The meeting was scheduled to take place directly after chapel, but, because there was no regular chapel today, only the enthusiastic and personally interested members of the W. S. G. A. made an effort to be present. DON'T FORGET TO COME- WE DON'T KNOW WHERF Another mass meeting will be called by the president, probably after chapel next Tuesday, at which every girl in the University is urged to be present to settle questions that are to come before the W. S. G. A. CHANCELLOR TO KICKOFF AT THE OPENING GAMI Men intending to take part in the Y. M. "Walk Around" which will occur Thursday and Friday nights of this week are requested not to apportions to be held there. This is to be a mysterious affair and something good is in store for all those that will attend, according to the predictions of the secretary. Don't forget September 25 and 26. You are requested to attend although Secretary Hoffman will not say where to come. If anyone can explain this paradox he can do better than the reporter for the Daily Kansan. "Yes-sire-reel! I'm going to do my part, what ever that is," said the girl. "I don't care if it's 'grand opening' is a good idea and am heartily in favor of it. Think it is a five chance to get the whole Uni. And put together in one big rousing rally." The rumor afloat in regard to Chancellor Strong's opening the William Jewel game with a kick-off has been verified. When seen this week he regarded to the matter the Chancellor was very emphatic in his declarations. The Weather The first chapel service of the year at Oread high school was held Monday. The student organizations will have charge of chapel occasionally, and students will be assisting of music by University organizations, and addresses by members of the University faculty, will help make up the program for the year.

He arrived yesterday. "Butch" carried with him on his return his usual overflow of "pep". He was out on the field prematurely at half hour, prompting after a hard road trip. The return of Stuewe will materially strengthen the back-field, and will settle the question of who'll fill up the big gap in the middle. ANITOR JOBS POPULAR Y. M. C.A.

The University of Kansas now has a pulmotor, a device for producing artificial respiration to be used in cases of drowning, electrical shock, gas fumes, or other cases where artificial respiration is resorted too. Since its residence here, the pulmotor has been three times called upon for assistance. The first call was to the assistance of a young man who had taken acid for an affair of the heart. His case was so serious that he died before the machine reached him. The pulmotor is kept in readiness for the use of the University and all people of Lawrence at the above place with three cylinders of oxygen and full directions for using. Each of these cylinders will produce artificial respiration for 6 hours. In the second instance a Summer Session student was nearly drowned in the Kaw. The pulmotor was sent for and announced. Immediately the young man revived and when the machine arrived there was no need of its services. The third call was another attempt at suicide but the patient was revived by physicians without the pulmotor's assistance. The pulmotor took up its residence at the University June the 15th from the Draeger Oxygen Apparatus Company of Philadelphia and is originally a native of Germany. The pulmotor has not had a good chance to demonstrate its ability yet but it is ready with 18 hours of good breath stored away in the three cylinders and is one of the best machines in this section of the country. Coaches Schulte and Brewer, tutors of the Missouri Tigers this fall, are shifting their entire eleven around in an effort to build up a terrorizing back field.

NEWS FROM OUR RIVAL GRIDIRONS The Haskell Indians, guided by Bert Kennedy, the old Kansas men sent to the front eleven. Powell, the old Carlisle star, Artichauque, Rocque, Fontanella, and which nucleus around which Kennedy hopes to build an alliedictory team. We note by the University Missouri ruarian that Crosby Kemper, the Tiger's star line man, was the best worker on the gridiron the first day of scrimmage, breaking through the hurdles and then heavy gains. We wonder if Kemper has yet solved the puzzle of the "Minnesota Shift?" The Washburn Ichabbs suffered a severe injury to their state championship aspirations Saturday when he collapsed located both ends of his collar bone while running interference behind a punt. Deaver hit his man too low, his shoulder on his opponent's guards, and fractured his collar bone. Send the Daily Kansan home. HOYT SUMMONED TO POLICE COURT Must Appear to Answer Unknown Charge Tomorrow at Eight o'clock HE WILL SUE K. C. OFFICIALS Lawyers, Believing He Is Persecuted, Are Taking Case—Professor Millia May Testify. Homer Hoyt, the University Phi Beta Kappa man who was arrested in Kansas City last month and held in jail four days without being given a chance to communicate with his mother or obtain bail, will be called in police court tomorrow morning at eight o'clock. This is the word received by the Daily Kansan this afternoon over a long distance phoen from E. C. Martin, one of a number of Kansas City lawyers who have volunteered to take Hoyt's case. No charge has ever been filed against Hoyt and his attorneys cannot see how he can be tried in court without being charged with some crime. Hoyt will appear in the police court however and after the proceedings of the morning are over he plans to bring suit against W. W. Gordon, chief of police, the patrolman who made the arrest, and the sergeant of the police district where he was imprisoned. The former University man will be well represented in court. Three attorneys, E. E. Martin, Henry Zean, and Sam Maker, believe he has been outrageously treated and have promised to do all in their power to obtain justice. Others may also appear in his behalf. Prof. H. A. Millis of the University received a card from Hoyt today asking him to appear in court tomorrow. Professor Millis will go if necessary to establish the reputation of his former student. Mr. Martin also urged him to come, saying that the fact that Hoyt lives in one of the poorer settlements is being against him and a witness from the University would help to establish his upright character before the court. Hoyt was arrested last month while returning to his home from Lawrence with a bundle of old clothes. He was placed in jail and told that a charge of vagrancy had been placed against him. After spending four days in a huge cell with eighteen other prisoners, chiefly negroes, he was allowed to communicate with friends and his release was obtained on a writ of habeas corpus. Joe Brady, the police judge, has admitted in public, according to Hock's lawyers, that no warrant was issued for the arrest. After Hoyt obtained his liberty by the habeous corpus writ the authorities threatened to rearrest him after filing a formal charge but Hoyt promised to appear in court any time the judge wanted him and the promise was accepted, evidently, as all that was necessary. The attorney for Hoyt expected Hoyt's suits against those claimed to be his persecutors by the former student. to be filed without fail tomorrow. HARRY WILLSON SPENDS SUMMER IN PANAMA Harry Willson, president of the sophomore class last year, has been named to a national summer. Leaving Lawrence about the middle of June he journeyed to Panama, where he held a good position in the commissary department, He returned to school via New York to Chicago and had a ground line at the metroplex.
