U. S. Navy Plans Ambitious Cruise on Pacific Ocean
Admiral Edward W, Eberle
Estimates 13,000 Miles
Will Be Covered
on Trip
1. What is the slope of line 1?
Washington, Jan. 9—In its five maneuvers on the Pacific Ocean this spring the navy will undertake the "most ambitious program" ever at tempteed, according to Admiral Ed W. Eberle, chief of naval operations.
Under plans for sending the Atlantic and Pacific fleets to Hawaii, Babcock's new $250 million Australia for a cruise, Ebacle estimates that more than 15,000 miles of travel are needed.
From the extensive nameweavers Eberle believe both the personnel and machinery of the navy will be benefited.
Helps Morale of Men
Ellerbe scouted the idea that extensive cruises would in any way deteriorate the boilers of vessels. He explained that the proposed cruise was based on an improved Navy was self-supporting, because they rely on getting supplies from shore hases. It is also biennial for the morale of the men to take a cruise away from the parts along the coast. On this cruise we are self-supporting on their supply, equipment, and fuel smile."
Under present plans the combined dews will steam out from San Francisco in the latter part of April and "start a problem" against the Hawaii-based Haitian Air Force and district naval forces there. Ehrelie believes the Hawaiian project is very important because the Army forces on the islands have not engaged in practice with the Navy since 1920 and that the Pacific fleet visited there.
Will Test Anchorages
Will Test Anchorages
After the 'attack' on the islands the fleet will test anchorages, which are very limited.
"The fleet will practically have to anchor in open sea," Eherle said, "and we want to test out how the fleet could secure achorease there and be maintained in all kinds of weather."
Maneuvers are expected to be completed by the middle of June and the sequestering fleet, excepting one division. The division will then return to the Atlantic.
On the first of July, 10 battleships,

In a Kanzan story of Dec. 12 concerning the origin of the Rock Chalk wall, the following statement appears: "all suggestions proved unacceptable until Professor Bailey suggested Rah Rah. Jayhawk, K. S. Moore and J. W. Nixon." No one knows how the Rakl Chalk was substituted for Rah Rab."
Rock Chalk Started From State Covering
But Prof. A. M. Wilesk of the department of Greek says that no knows. According to Professor Wilkes the Rock Chalk part of the yell can be used in conjunction with the English department from 1886 to 1880. The Rock Chalk was suggested to him by the chalk stratum of the Crataean geological period which covers the state and *t* which there are several outcropping rocks with the state and *t* with Jayhawk so the yell in its present form was evolved.

The Works of Barrie,
Subject of Lecture
Given by Cora Dolbee
Author's Characters Are Real His Play Plots Simple Says Speaker
"Barrio's sympathetic character portrayal, his knowledge of human nature and ability to responds it have made his works great. But it is not because of the real-world special solutions which he presents that lead charm to them." This was We summary made of the works of Sir James Burrow yesterday afternoon by Miss Corn Dalle in the last contempoary exhibition to be presented this semester.
"James Matthew Barrie—who can not remember whether he uses a double 't' in spelling his middle name — was born in Scotland in 1869. The background formed by his bony face is scary. He loved to have the love he had for his mother has kept the character of his cuter somewhat in the background. His mother was an unique character to that she tried to keep pace with his education so that he would not go away from her" said Ms. Thue see.
"In 1882," continued Miss Delbose Barrie began writing for the Nottingham Journal. Later he also wrote for the metropolitan magazine. Then the idea occurred to him that he was his story, in which Thaame serve as a pictureous background. In 1885 an editor advised him to move to London, this he did. And in the seclusion of his London apartment he turned out his great pieces of work, difficult as to what people think of him.
"Barlee's favorite plays are for the most part the public's favorite. Perhaps he's not the most admired. The Admireable Crichton presented here two years ago by the Dramatic club, The Old Lady Shows Her Melodies and the Professor's Love Story."
Professor OBrien Talks to Hutchinson Gatherir
"Barries characters are revealed as our friends," concluded the speaker, "the tragedy and comedy attached to them we accept as invisible. His Scottish and English foes are real. And all of his plays have simple plots. The Barrie that be interviewed is one person and the Barrie that is another. As one critic has expressed it there never were at least two children that never grow up—Peter Pan and Peter Pans nater."
Prof. F. P. OBrien of the School of Education addressed the Hutchinson Chamber of Commerce Thursday on the success of establishing a junior college. A similar survey was carried on by Professor Obrien in the cities of Houston and San Antonio, and studying several junior colleges in operation he has come to the conclusion that there would be fewer junior colleges in the state had it not been founded, he added the establishment of each one.
During the week an exhibition of *stitching* has been shown in the department of design, three new in-room exhibits on Czech textiles from Pravoane, Czecho Slovakia.
