Chancellor Snow Ends Battle Between '01 and '02 in Time to Prevent Damage to Hats
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
How what might have been a "free-for-all" riot over a dispute of colors was prevented by the prompt action of Dr. Francis H. Snow, former chancellor, is related in the 1901 "Jayhawk," the first K. U. year book which bore that title as its permanent name.
The senior colors of that year were blue and gray. One morning in February all the senior men appeared on the campus wearing soft clothing, their class colors. This caused an immediate "howl" to go up from the juniors, who resented the wearing of colors by the seniors, and having them flaunted in their eyes. They made no effort to conceal their reverence for the seniors, but put it, "expressed their disdain of the disagreeable blue." And not only that, but they threatened to take the colors away from the seniors. The hands began to disappear, one by one, supposedly away by the juniors. And affairs slowly began to come to a crisis.
The climax came when the junior class met and passed a resolution stating that thenafter all senior hat bands were liable to confiscation, as the juniors believed it against the principles of the University for any class to wear its colors. The seniors said they would wear their colors, that they would wear their colors, and branding any senior who came on the campus next day with
Student Council Jury to Try Men Violating Bills of Constitution
Student Must Have Twenty four Hours to Escape Wearing Cap
Any student accused of violating any of the bills of the Associated Men of the University will be tried by a court of which the president of the Men's Student Council will act as judge, the secretary as clerk of the court and one member as prosecution. At the time of his conviction the jury. The accused will have an early hearing, and upon pleading not guilty will have two weeks in which to obtain counsel. This is the provision by bill 12 concerning the enforcement of the bills of the University. ACode of judicial procedure, which was passed by the council at its last meeting.
By conviction or by plea of guilt, the student will receive the designated punishment and the records of the trial will be sent to the chancellor, the dean of men, and the registrar. A full copy of the procedure will be kept by the secretary of the council.
Whenever a student or member of the faculty shall state in writing that any of the bills have been violated, the secretary of the council shall answer the complaint and serve either personally or by satisfactory proxy notice to the student to appear before the council to answer the complaint against an enterant a plan of not guilty, the person making the complaint will be present to state his grounds for the complaint.
The proceedings of the council-court will be kept by the secretary of the council in a separate book for all times it will at all times be a public record.
A bill defining the traditions of the University and providing for their perpetuation fixed the minimum of 24 hours a student must have in order to compete in the freshman cap. The Olympics will be held in the annual football game. A committee of two freshmen, two sophomores and a chairman appointed by the president of the Men's Student Council will meet on Wednesday to fall election to make plans for the freshman-sophomore contest.
The council went on record as opposed to violence in any form in enforcing the University tradition. The president, a former Student Council, was constituted a general committee to enforce the University traditions at all times, and the men of the senior class were members of the enforcement of the freshman cap rule.

Miss Dorothy Snow, of Kansas City, Mo., visited at the Alpha XI Delta house Saturday and Sunday.
When the next day arrived, the juniors were waiting in a crowd at the entrance to the campus. The rivals would really try to start anything, made no efforts to organize, but peacefully climbed the hill, singly, and as they came on to the building, and hands were taken from them.
Then the seniors decided to start something themselves. At the chapel hour, which was due that morning, they met on the juniors at noon, and when noone came they formed in an angry crowd. I the meantime, Chancellor Snow, seeing that quick action must be done by them, met a meeting of the junior class. They meet shortly before noon, and the Chancellor pointed out to them the error of their ways, and persuaded them to reconsider their goals, and to rescind their resolutions.
This the juniors did, and the resolutions were presented to the seniors in time to prevent what might have been a serious affair. The juniors were outnumbered and, at the time of their victory, they had to tackle, but in a situation that would have been disastrous to them. Therefore they were forced to give up.
“And now,” says the “Jayhawker,
“the white pigeon of peace has tied in
the dogs of war.”
