FRAT MEMBERSHIP IS ON INCREASE 389,000 Men in Secret Societies With Propertp Values Up to $15,000,000 The membership in college fraternities has more than doubled in the past fourteen years and now totals more than 389,000. This number is divided among 2,500 chapters which control property valued at approximately $115,000,000. These figures taken from the last edition of the "Manual of College Fraternities," by W. Raimond Baird, give some idea of the important positions to which these institutions have attained in educational suheres. In the field of academic fraternities alone, seven new names have been added to the roll in this period of fourteen years, bringing the total up to 67. Academic fraternities, many of which had their beginning back in the '20s and '30s of the nineteenth century, has inspired the extension of the fraternity idea into women's colleges and professional and technical schools. The vital statistics of the bess, best academic fraternities as compiled in 1967 are Fraternity Membership Alpha Chi Rho. 882 Alpha Delta Phi. 11,424 Alpha Tau Omega. 10,128 Beta Theta Pi. 18,371 Chi Phi. 5,704 Chi Psi. 5,324 Delta Kappa Epsilon. 17,683 Delta Phi. 3,995 Delta Psi. 3,755 Delta Tau Delta. 11,321 Delta Upsilon. 11,656 Kappa Alpha, (Northern). 1,977 Kappa Alpha, (Southern). 8,208 Kappa Sigma. 11,204 Phi Delta Theta. 17,845 Phi Gamma Delta. 15,290 Phi Kappa Psi. 12,602 Phi Kappa Sigma. 4,693 Phi Sigma Kappa. 3,367 Pi Kappa Alpha. 2,934 Psi Upsilon. 12,093 Sigma Alpha Epsilon. 14,784 Sigma Chi. 11,925 Sigma Nu. 9,277 Sigma Phi. 2,744 Sigma Phi Epsilon. 2,039 Theta Chi. 930 Theta Delta Chi. 6,389 Tau Psi. 7,476 One of the most noteworthy facts brought out in the manual is the gradual breaking down of provincialism by the fraternities. The western fraternities are extending their chapter list among the eastern colleges and the eastern fraternities seem to be losing sight more and more old exclusive eastern colleges. Fourteen university chapters are only five fraternity chapters in the two great Canadian universities, McGill and Toronto. Today, these two institutions are the home of fifteen chapters. Still another remarkable example is that of a southern fraternity noted for its time honored southern exclusiveness, which has lately begun to plant chapters in the north . However, this breaking down of provincial prejudice is not the only good that the fraternities do. Prominent educators are coming more and more to realize the good such organizations are in the daily life of the colleges. Another practically new development in the fraternity is the growing co-operation of alumni and undergraduates. This spirit is shown in the organization three years ago of the inter-fraternity conference which meets in Forster, N.Y., during every year. The conference is enthusiastically supported by such men as Hamilton W. Mabie and President Faune, of Brown University. Send the Daily Kansan Home. Gymnasium Suits Adjustable waist to fit any size.

WALKER WHITESIDE IN "THE TYPOON" Mr. Walker Whiteside will be seen at the Bowersock Opera House for one performance on October 28th, in "The Typhoon", which scored a phenomenal success in the early part of the year in Chicago and New York. This play was originally produced in Buda Pesth, the home of the author, Melchlor Langvel. It was quickly translated from the Hungarian text and given with great success in Berlin, Vienna, Milan, Copenhagen and Stockholm. It is now in its tenth month as the charitable boy to be given at his Majesty's Theatre by Sir Beerbohm Tree. Mr. Walker Whiteside brings his entire company and magnificent production intact from the Huson Theatre, New York, where the play ran far into the summer. "The Typhoon" is startlingly original in theme and conception, and is unlike any other drama that has been produced in recent years. The play has for its theme the contrasted ideas of the far East and the modern West, as exemplified by the life of a young Japanese diplomat in charge of a short军官. The tragic results of the conflicting ideals of two races brought into fortuitous contact is used as the background of a story of intense tragic interest. Price $50 to $2.00-Adv.
