Fashionable Slouch No Longer Holds Superior Place in Vogue for Campus Women This Week
The "fashionable slouch" is not the vogue on the campus this week among the women. Those who felt themselves to be back numbers because they were unable to develop the monochlorid dye are now being trained with愈伤组织 in the eyes of those who received the health charts.
Whole houses of women at one time have been coming in a steady stream to the gymnasium to have their posture and feet graded,received training and every sorority and most every group of women of the Hill have been in. It was evident that the news traveled from one individual to another as to the qualifications for a good grade, not because of the better Wednesday than Tuesday. No permanent charts were taken of the feet as the department of physical education felt that they were too expensive and also that it was better to take them in a way that the women could follow us at home.

Hall Lectures on Orient
Foreign Correspondent Explains Far East Problem
"Few Americans realize the influence of the Orient upon our history and future development," said Professor Joseph W. Hall, foreign correspondent from the Far east, to journalist Robert F. Burke, professor. Professor Hall gave an informal talk on the relationship between America and the Orient.
"The climax of the trouble over spheres of influence and the open door policy came soon after the World War. The Disarmament conference was called in Washington, not so much to cut down on the armaments of the nations as to settle the Pacific and the Far East situation."
"Japan, in its policy of expansion, gained control in Korea and曼CHuria, and since then has been slowly completing its grasp on the world. Japan started with the sudden increase in Asiatic immigration into this country. The Gentleman's Agreement settled this problem for a few years. Then the efforts of the American capitalists to expand their business and to obtain control of the natural resource, caused "triction."
In finishing, Professor Hall mentioned the Immigration Law of June July and its affect on the Japanese policy. "By this law, Japan is an outset of the Occident, and that, to together with the expansion policy of the United States, she her to throw discretion to the winds and to start upon China. Chinese agents in Manchuria gained control of that province and the whole nortern part of China. The Russians came to the rescue of the Nationalist party in China. The struggle for Russia began early in 1945 against the Russians. The open door controversy is a thing of the past—there is no open door."
Sorority to Give Christmas Tree
The Alpha Omicron Pi sorority has decided to dispense with its usual Christmas banquet Thursday evening, and will be hosting a Christmas tree and feed to twenty-five North Lawrence children.
Gay posters of the Hiking Woman! the Swimming Woman! the Basalbill Woman! and others are featured on this book. The postures represent every sport for women of the Hill. One had an Annette-like figure posed as though ready for a high dive. The crowd of spectators seemed to be appreciating the model.
Perhaps dieting and rolling would go out of fashion if health week were a continuous affair, for points are being given for not eating between meals. You won't much money the men will save if the women stop eating between meals!
Haskell Schedules Game With Oklahoma A. & M
Tomorrow that individual who has succeeded in being the "healthiest" as shown by her chart will receive a prize. Also the group which shows the best record is to get some reword. Although we may not have any of these, the physicales of the Hill are, we will know after the big party tomorrow who rate the highest according to the authorities of health week.
The Haskell Indian football team will leave this afternoon at 2 o'clock for Dallas, Texas, where they will play three games and a post-season game of the year. Twenty players and coaches "Dick" and "Pat" Hanley will make the trip. The game Saturday will be played in Dallas, and is called 'und,' which is to be built at Dallas.

This will bring to outstanding amount invested by the company in real estate loans to a total of $4,600,000,000 at the end of this year.

The next largest item—investments in railroad securities amounting to over 2 billion dollars—is about 2 per cent of the total assets. Next to that, the remaining item of Government, State and Municipal bonds, representing 13 1/2 per cent of the total and then the item of loans to policyholders, representing 12 1/2 per cent of the total.
