Pan-Hellenic Makes New Initiation Rule for All Sororites
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 11, 1925
Neophytes Must Have All "(" to Be Considered; Rush Week Shortened
Each organization will hereafter collect to the registrar a complete list of candidates for initiation, that list to be checked over before it is selected. The registrar will tie one who, with the president, will sign it and return it to the organizations.
This means that each proactive initiate must have all 14 grades recorded for her in the regina. The candidate she can be taken into an organization.
The Women's Pan-Heilene Council, at a special meeting held at the Kappa house Wednesday afternoon, passed a new ruling for the purpose of checking up the grades of new initiates. According to Deer Agnus Chrysanthes, the high school should insure the high scholastic standing of sororities on the Hill.
Rush week has been shortened to three days, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, with Wednesday as a day of silence and Thursday for pledgings. This will take care of pledging before classes begin in rainy and wet conditions, but it will make much of the criticism that rush week interferes with studies.
A motion to the effect that there be no preparatory school guests at any time during the school year in a sorority house, except in the case of sisters or with special permission from Pan-Hellenic, was carried.
Tempest in a Teapot Causes Excitement
A tempest in a tempet right here on our own camp. At least that is the impression given by the rush and coor of the steam which has been escaping into the pool at the power plant this week.
"Nothing to worry about," said Bertram Miller, foreman of the plant, when queued about the escaping steam. Gradually recovering from the shock of finding a feminine reporter at large among the men in the plant, Mr. Miller unbounded the explanation of the noise that has been filling our cars
"It has to stay," said Mr. Miller, "and they might as well get used to it. They won't notice it after a week or so."
Like, all tempests in all teapots this one has quite an ordinary origin and even a strictly utilitarian purpose.
The exhaust of steam was formerly let out into the old heating plant. Now it rubs out into the pool helping to replenish the water there. In this way less city water is required for the power plant.

Presbyterian Leader Cite Journalism and Law as Reform Fields

Mr. Lovell cited the fields of journalism and law as examples where there was need of social reform and where it was great. Much of the difficulty in putting into practice Christian principles goes back to the fact that people, including church people, do not want to be workable in real life he said.
Mir. Lovell's solution for the unanimous approach to problems in the fields of business, was the adoptor of the Christian spirit.
To follow the example of Christ is the way to join service to vocation in the opinion of Mr. Lovell. Four reasons for his believing the way of Jesus was right, as being the "successful" way were given by the speaker.
"The kingdom of God is a world in which the will of Jesus controls, and it is a world in which the will of any participant or party, not the American group or party, but the American
The second reason was that "me, and women adjudged equally as sureful attribute a large share of their contact with the Christ."
"First," be said, "judged absolutely and qualitatively, Jesus was be most successful man that bar lived."
Mr. Lovell is available for conferences on vocations. E, B. Shultz, general secretary of the Y. M. C. A., announced after his talk. About eight persons were present at the lunch-on.
The kingdom of God toward which the Christian worker arrives was defined by Mr. Lecourt in a quotation from Dr. Egger Increase Bosworth as 'an good world here, here and beyond' where death a softer swerve in heaven.'
"The secret of the problems of life with Jesus, in the third reason," he continued. "Finally I go to the Jezus. I enter the Jezus and my way to be the head."

But yesterday, the long slim twigs

A gold leaf danced on each twig tip-
A golden sword-let yesterday.
Professor of Zoology Names Causes for Disagreement Between Them
Explanations of Both Science and Religion Are Right, Says Lane
"It is the experience of every one of us, after getting away from our sheltered homes, to find that there are things we think we should think as we do," and Prof. H. H. Lacey, of the zoology department, in his talk on "Science and Religion" given at the regular Y. W. C. A. Tucker, of the University. The shock is sure to come when one begins to study science. Some say that science and religion cannot be harmed but they can be; through the history of new ideas by science," he added.
"Science has no direct relation to religion. The scientist has to deal intellectly with material things. Research on man and it is impossible to investigate this side with scientific tools. Explanations of both science and research are not possible. The scientist I must look at things from a mechanical point of view, but back of thin is the ultimate explanation given by religion," said Professor
Mr. Lane stated that his book on "Evolution and Christian Faith," which was published two years ago, was written by request of senior students at the University of Oklahoma where he was employed before coming to college. He was also written for the purpose of answering questions asked by students.

All-Valley Quintet,
Kansan Selection,
Makes Appearance
Ackerman and Goodson Win Unanimous Approval From Local Sport Writers
The Kansan sport department has selected for your personal all-valley basketball team. The arcskers ask that you ponder well and visibly over this team. It is the cream of the valley mural flower artists.
The selections were made from a composite vote of six sport writers upon players for three teams. A place on the first team counted five votes, while each team one. It was possible for one man to receive a total of 30 point.
Bunker the other forward on the first team received 22 points and Belgard at guard received 24.

The results of this symposium show that two players in the valley have had their best performance in competition this year. Gouston, powerful center on the Husker quintet and the great Ackerman, one of the best players in the valley has ever seen.
Three-Man Offense Formed
Three-Man Offense Formed
Scarcely less brilliant than the player in question, the ball is displayed by Bunker, diminutive forward on the great Aggie team and the guarding of Volk of Nebraska and Belgard of Kansas. These three men round out a team that would have the necessary power to roll up enough points to win any basketball game to hold the opponents to a minimum.
It would be a three-man offensive machine with Barker and Goodenoe getting all the close-ups and the lanky Ackerman picking off baskets anywhere past the center of the court. Volz and Beardward would be able to get the ball down and attack which might develop in case the opponents secured the ball.
Second Team is Formidable
The second team could be sent in any time to replace the first two when staging a rally. The men composing this team are all veterans with the exception of Peterson, and with such veterans as Minner and McBride playing on either side of the leader of the weakening of the first line of defence would be overcome.
The men on the third team likewise are old heads at the game and could be trusted to take up the work of preparing the field for the necessary finish is the only thing that prevents these men from stepping up into the places occupied by their teams.
Besides the three teams selected there were a great many players on our team who had extraordinary ability and we are giving some of the more noteworthy of these honourable mention. In several cases, a player made a mention list received votes from
