A lunchoon will be held tomorrow noon at the University commons for the students who are representing the different organized houses in the student relief drive for the needy students in central Europe. No admis sion is required for the lunchoon being cared for by the committee on joint student affairs.
At the luncheon plans for an organized drive will be made. The remaining clothing which is to be gathered must be gotten quickly if it is to be ready for shipment in time. A charter of a boat from New York City June 5, and it is on this ship that the Kansas quota is to be sent.
The last collection of clothing is to be made Thursday afternoon and all of the organized and private donors are urged to have their donations ready on time and make them as large as possible. The Student Relief Committee is making every effort to get the University donations off their books and only by the co-operation of the students can this be done.
Anyone who has clothing that he wishes to donate should give the name and address to Dean John Dyer for the donation, which will be called for Thursday afternoon.
This drive for the needy students of central Europe is of nation-wide scope and Dean John Dyer is eager to increase the quota from Kansas.
Sorority Chicks Fail to Mix With Biddie
Making pledges steal chickens will probably be scratched off the list of "hellwell requirements" of the Teachers' Phi Beta Pi club of the Teachers' College of Emporia.
Members of the sorority ordered Nellie Davis, daughter of Gov. Jonan Davis, and two other pledges to go out the night of May 25 and steal three chickens, and not to come back without them.
The three went to the police station and "framed" with policemen on duty to throw a scare into the sorority members. The police called the sorority house and said that they had been kidnapped by the police. When the members arrived at the police station they found the pledges crying. The police threatened to hold the entire crowd in jail, but after the shedding of great quantities of tears, they were allowed to sign a fake bomb for $40 and were released. They were ordered to appear and chicken thaws" were ordered to appear in court the next morning.
The next morning the three pledges confessed to the sorority members that it was all a "frame-up." The members were so excused that the guilty ones were excused from further punishment.
Former Professor in New York Herbert Fels, formerly an associate professor in the K. U. department of English, was a long-time writer for various magazines on economic subjects. Prof. Fels has only recently returned from Switzerland where he served as a member of the national league of nations labor board.

Manchester, supervisor of libraries, was elected secretary and Prof. B. A. Clement, principal school of Law, was elected treasurer.
Nadine Morrison, c24, was in Kansas City Thursday, making arrangements for her Camp Fire work, which begins June 1.
Helium in Balloon Harder to Ignite Than Steel--Cadv
Large-Scaled Experiments Made by Government for Improving Methods
Hydrogen and helium are the only two gases which when placed in a balloon cause it to float gently upward into the air instead of anchoring it more firmly to the ground according to Dr. H., P. Cady, professor if chemistry at the University of Kansas, in a talk last night on WDAF, Kansas City Star radio station.
Except in lifting power and cost, however, helium has all the advantages over hydrogen for use in dirigibles. It cannot be made to burn or to enter any sort of chemical reaction. The steel and aluminum used in the construction of the airship are much more combustible than the氢urn. Even if the ship were struck by a thunderbolt powerful enough to melt the frame, the helium would not be exploded, continued Doctor Cady.
An airship filled with helium has been found to be much steadier and more easily filled than one filled with hydrogen. The only reason why helium is not used exclusively in balloons and airships is that hydrogen is much more abundant. Water, for example, contains a small amount of oxygen which can be obtained from it at low cost, while helium is rare and exceedingly costly to obtain.
Helium Rare and Costly
Doctor Cady, together with David McFarland, has done some valuable work in isolating heather from other gasses in the Dexter field in Kansas in 1907, the gas at times containing 96% of helium. The richest natural gas which he has over examined contained over 3%.
Government Tests Helium Gas
Government Tests Helium Gas
"During the war, our government undertook some large scale exertion in Texas, leading to the extraction of helium from their gas supply which at that time contained only .96%. Three different plants were tried and one of these, the Linde, actually succeeded in preparing commercial helium. Before the close of the war they had produced 150,000 cu. ft. of the gas. Since then, they improved its process until it is now producing helium for its ships at a moderate cost."
Dr. Cady concluded his address with a bit of humor which he discovered on student examination paper some wenty years ago. "Hellum was recently discovered by Sir Walter Ralley, and is now located around the north pole, in the aurora oresalis, and in the region of the olar plexus."
Plan Last Senior Recital
The last of the series of senior recitals will be given by Mary Scott Lucas, pianist, at Fraser chapel, Wednesdays at 10:30 a.m., with assistance by Ethet Ostr, soprano, who is a sophomore in the School of Fine Arts. The program follows:

Gone are the days when unsuspecting passerbys and absent minded students afforded great mirth to watchers as their tripping feet were sent to stray over the unraised shab Egpe House on Oread avenue.

Now, after one started glance, he smiles knowingly, lifts a wary feet gracefully over the treacherous obstacle and walks complacently on!
