THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1924
Honor Convocation Announced; Will Be Held Next Monday
Students Who Have Shown Ability for Leadership Will Have Places on Platform
An honor convention will be held at 10 o'clock, Monday, May 12, for the first time in the University's history.
Chancellor E. H. Lindley made the following statement yesterday afternoon: "The recognition of leadership and intellectual attainment will, in the long run, bring more to the platform of the gymnasium a considerable number of the students of the University. It is hoped to make the convocation an annual event, in which students are accorded another student assembly in the academic year.
Announce Recipient of Honor Award
Especial interest will be given the program by the announcement of the recipient of the honor award from the University. If this is new this year, was made possible through the gift of a friend of the University. It will be given each year to the senior man whose influence upon the life of the University has been most helpful and wholehearted.
Points Considered in Selection
The five points considered in making the selection are (1) character,
(2) scholarship, (3) breadth of interests, (4) unseffish service, (5) leadership.
It is hoped that last year's recipient will be present at the convocation. This year's recipient will be announced at commencement.
An additional item of interest will be the selection of new members of Sachem, which will be made during the hour.
Geologists Hope for New Wind Recorder
High on top of Franer hall halls the University anemometer, measuring the gentle and other breezes which bless or infest, respectively, the campus. Its instrument which is accurate to 50 m/s manufacture those miniature and sometimes almost full-grown cyclones which cause so much grief on the Hill. It is used to measure the velocity and mileage of the wind. It is used to measure wind-record apparatus which was kept in operation for many years.
This apparatus was once well kept up and the records kept religiously, but, as is often the case, something happened, and it began to be neglected. It took but a short time for such a delicate instrument to become completely destroyed. What was once an almost complete weather bureau, which would make graphical records of the wind, its velocity and direction, is now a heap of rust in Fraser, room 601. There, in a room full of dust, broken furniture, paper and rubbish that had been forgotten or valuable instrument, except the little amometer which is still spinning around on the roof.
Every 24 hours, a student in the department of geology takes down the mileage of the wind for the day from a small dial on the instrument, and turns it in to the department. This is a most unsatisfactory method, though, compared with the machine which would write its own records.
At present, the department of geology has hopes of getting an appropriation for a new recording instrument, and the installation of it in the geology building. Until something is made available, the cords of the breezes of the "windiest hill in the state," are going to waste above our heads.
