Some Time Given for Decisioning
After the lecture, at the beginning of each meeting, time will be given to you. The next step in the way, will be given an opportunity to bring up questions or problems as to their vocation or the choice of one.
in connection with the talks a corner of the library will be fitted up as the place where the University books on vocational guidance may be held, and there shall also be placed on the third floor of the library, according to E. N. Manchester, director of the library, so that the students will have easy access to them. The shelf will also be used year by year by processors and heads of departments concerning the advantages and disadvantages of work in the subjects taught by them. It is expected that they will be used by students in following up subject matters up by the speakers in the series.
Such a plan as this has been carried out for the women of the University is not completely done by different departments for their own students. This is the first venture in recent years on the all University standpoint.
Three years ago heads of the University prepared brief monographs dealing with the vocational opportunities in their respective fields. Pamphlets are printed in various departments and at Dean Dye's office.

Political Platform Announces Stand on Hill Problems
Student Discipline, Fina Exam Abolition, and Point System Stressed
The second opening gun of the political campaign which culminates in the election April 7 was sounded today with the announcement by the Pachacamac party of its platform. The first shot of fire was against Mask Mask party, which declared for open primaries for the selection of candidates.
According to "Bob" Roberts, cheerleader, the newly issued platform is apparently quite progressive, at least considerably more so than any of the platforms advanced by the two leaden injuries for the last several years.
"The platform seems to be a genuine attempt to get away from the cut-and-dried issues that have made former elections more popularly contests, which steal the Khaman in a way that has been called columns." Roberts said. "Such questions as those of student discipline by the Student Council, changing the point system, and changing the office of dean of men from one of discipline to one of advice are squarely definite stands taken upon them."
In the matter of student discipline the platform declares for the exclusive power to determine guilt and provide penalties in cases of infraction of University regulations, but asserts that the function of reporting violations of rules should rest with anyone who is interested rather than solely with the members of the university community. *Anoint* *Almighty* in pope *solemn* *glades*, townpeople, or University au thortices.
The annual plank of lowering the admission price to varsity dance from 81 to 75 cents also makes its appearance, while the abolition of final examinations and the enforcement of traffic rules on the campus like wise are given stress by the party according to Roberta.
Dancers to Meet Friday
Advanced Students to Take U
Additional Fox Trot Steps
The advanced and beginner sections of the University dancing school will meet as usual Friday at 7:30 on the second floor of Spooner illiteracy, at 3:30 and 4:30 respectively.

This week the advanced class will take up additional fox-trot steps which are useful as "stiller" props to produce a smoothly continuous movement. The class is producing some very good dancers, according to Dick Matthews, director, and a steady improvement has been maintained.
The beginners class will continue studying technique and steps of the footwork, and will carry on further the techniques. The students are valuable, even though it is not danced so much as other steps at present." Matthews explained. "Any student who learns well will have difficulty in learning footwork and tango steps.

Graduates Desire Structure of Their Own Separate From Union
From Union
An alumna building designed to accommodate the large crowds which return to the University for Homesching, the big athletic events of the year, and for commencement, is be committed by many of the K. A. Ummi.
Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith, of the department of architectural engineering, said this morning that he has been in communication with several of the alumni who are working on the new building and has discussed possible plans for such a structure with them.
The fact that the new Union building will be primarily a Student Union is evident for the first time. We equip the apartheid building, entirely for their own use, in the opinion of most of he man who are in active lance with him.
Plan Adopted in East
This plan has been carried out in several Eastern schools which are not close to large cities, Princeton cading in the movement, Princeton u, a building completed there last year, and Manhattan living rooms and a dormitory downstairs to accommodate the smaller rows, and the upper floors are decorated exclusively to sleeping rooms which can be used for the larger rows.
A building with an estimated cost this plan though not so large or elaborate could be constructed at an estimated cost of $200,000. This building might be kept by the alumun association itself as has been done on other campuses or could be donated to Unilever which may allow way could be taken from the shoulders of the alumun themselves while the buildings would still be used for them only. This plan has also been used in other places and is one considered by those who are planning the future campaign for such a building.
Building Nat. Elaborate
"Kansas should follow its usual progressive program and lead the west in the development of this new state," said Wayne Hewlett. "With the number of alumni that we have, it should be possible to out over this plan and raise enough subscriptions, besides the money has been pledged for the Union."
