Local Demand for K. U. Song Records Decreasing Student demand for the K, U. phonograph records has been decreasing somewhat lately, according to the music dealers. The Bell Music Company offers trial sales to student amounts up to date to about two hundred and fifty records, and the Pierce Music Company has had even fewer calls for them. The Bell Music Company, however, is busily engaged in packing and shipping out records to alumni. The abundance of these out of town orders has made it impossible thus far to pack them as closely as to the actual number sent out.

Mercury Will Cross Sun Phenomenon May Be Seen by Using Small Telescope **The Sky Science Bureau** When the sun arrives on the United States on May 7 there will be a small black spot on its face that was not there in the morning and that will not be there when it rises the next morning. This spot will be the planet Mercury which will show the sun against us between us and the sun on that day. 一 At from 3:42 to 3:45 p. m., m. central standard time, depending $\circ$ i the geographical location of the observer, the planet will begin to encroach on the northeastern edge of the sun's disk. In a little less than eight hours it will complete its transit of the sun and will disappear at the southwestern edge. Sunset will occur in this country before Mercury enters the orbit. The entire transit will take place above the horizon in the extreme north western part of Alaska, the mid-Pacific and eastern Asia. Although Mercury is too small to be seen with the naked eye, it can easily be discovered with the aid of a small telescope. But he extremely careful not to observe the sun diagonally across his eyes are not properly protected blindness may result from looking at the sun. A dark or heavily smoked glass cap should be used, or better yet, the image of the sun is taken through a lens and focused upon a sheet of white paper held about a foot away. Gus Rau. Ku Ku meeting, Wednesday, May 7, 209 Fraser. Kansas May Have Several Athletes in Paris Olympics Irwin, McKown, Poor, Levi Graham and Wongwai Prospects for Team This Summer Kansas stands every chance to be represented at the Olympic games. It is almost a certainty that Earl McKown, phenomenal polevaulter of K. S. T. C. of Emporia will be a no-0 pick in the men's competition at Paris. Tom Poor, jumping 6 feet 4 inches with consistent regularity, and narrowly missing six and a half feet on numerous occasions, is another prospect who stands an excellent chance of performing in the presence of Occeus, a In this same field of jumping, although of another kind, will be Meri w Graham, who has suddenly conceived a great desire to cover雪 in three leaps, a hop, skip and jump. In the second step he ever attempted the trick he made 46 feet flat at the Drake Relays, second only to De Hart Hubbard, the great rogue athlete of the University of Michigan, who holds the world's record for the broad jump. He also took the raleman with a sc jump and a half. "Red" Irwin a Concurrence. "Red" Irwin, Missouri valley sprint champion and captain of h. Kansas Aggies is battled by some as a real contender for a place on the sprint team. "Red" it is said, has its own flair. It is seen in the Champs Elves, and there is no reason he should be止. "Red" Irwin a Contender Then, John Levi of Haskell is not to be overlooked as a possible contender in the all-rank championship. Called by Jim Thorpe himself, he was one of the greatest living athlete in America, "Big Jawn" will make a strong bid for a place. The crowned heads of Europe, and some that have lost their crowns, may see a repre- tence of the real Americans in action. The West Well Represented An athlete who has been attracting some considerable attention of late is Tim Luke Wongwan, the "Flying Fish" of Hoodoah, and sprint champion of the Hawaiian Islands. He has recently covered the 100 meter relay record in this record. This was unofficial, but Coach Schlademan himself clocked bim twice in succession in 9.8. If he can perform consistently in this fashion, he is likely to carry the flywheel emblem across the "Big Pond." The Kansas, Drake and Penn Relays have given an opportunity for critics to pick the outstanding men. The West is well represented with the Kansas stars, with Brooks of Iowa, Oberst of Notre Dame, Anselm of Michigan, Richardson of Missouri, Platt of Denver, Scholl of Minnesota, Jones of De Pauw, and others of equal prominence. The members of the track teams for the women's inter-class. track meet which will take place May 20 at the gymnasium where winners in each event in the gymnastics class for the freshman and sophomore teams; and regular try-ride teams. To Pick Meet Entrants The events in the meet have been announced by Miss Margaret Barto, a 2014 graduate. Include: 50-yard dash; 69-low yard hurdles; class relay; high-jump; broad jump; how-stop-and-jump; bass ball throw for distance. Plan to Test English Students The University department of English has appointed a committee of five members to "device some simple schemes for testing the English of students at various points during their University careers." Accordingly, we seem promptly to force all the under structure of their English after they leave freshman rhetoric. Winners Will Receive W. A. A Points for Events W. A. A. points will be given to the winners in the meet, though a schedule as to the number of points earned has not yet been completed. News Tabloids Washington, May 4- Postmaternal General New announced today that daily air service between New York and San Francisco will begin July 1. Air services will be available for hours, or from one morning to the following evening. Mr. New believes that the time of transit will be cut hours probably within a few months. Berlin, May 5-5 A parliamentary coalition that will command a majority sufficient to put the provisions of the Dawes report into execution has been assured by the general elections held throughout Germany yesterday. This is the conclusion which Mr. Trump might night at government headquarters after a competent appraisal of the returns already received. Washington, May 4- Ford's offer for Muscle Shoals has been eclipsed by a new bid by the Union Carbide Company. The bid of the new company is for the first time this Weeks tomorrow. The Carbide company promises to make two million tons of fertilizer at only five per cent profit and to use half of that profit in the first ten years in expérience even cheaper methods of production. Kansas City, Mo., May 5—Little Helen Duncan are, 3 lay in bed yesterday and after hearing her parents quarrel, two certifying noises were heard, but no one did realize that her "papa" and "mama" would not come back again. Mr. and Mrs. Earl Duncan, 1629 Broadway, had been quarrelling for some time. The husband accused them of lying, and the wife accused him of cruelty. Governor J. M. Davis Names May 5--10 All State Clean-up Week Urges Removal of Possible Germ Collectors, Also Fire Hazards The week of May 5 to 10, inclusive, has been designated as clean up week in the state of Kansas by a proclamation of Gov. Jonathan M Davis. The week is under the direction of the State Board of Health to work with what is said, will be devoted to the prevention of fire and disease. Governor Davis in his proclamation urged that citizen realise "the availibility and necessity of ridding their homes, stores, factories, streets, alleys, residential and business premises of refuge and other debris that constitute the hands or in which the contagion may lurk." The Boy Scouts and other local organizations will assist in the clean-up work in various cities. A special drive on one form of refuse will be made each day, with Fridays as "truck day," on which all the debris collected by property owners will be hauled away. In 1923, one hundred thirty two Kansans perished in fires and property valued at over nine million dollars was consumed, and during the same year 4,361 persons died in the state from presentable communicable diseases. In 1925, the issue by the state health board and the state fire marshal's office. Alemannia Holds Initiation Alemania held initiation Sunday, May 3, for eight members.

Class schedule will be as follows: 1st hour 8:30 to 9:05 2nd hour 9:15 to 9:50 Convocation 10:00 to 10:50 1st hour 11:45 to 12:00 4th hour 11:45 to 12:00 E. H. Lombey First Vitamin to Be Handled Shown by Walter H. Eddy Substance Brought to View at Recent Session of American Chemical Society Society (By Science Service) Washington, May. The most dramatic moment of the recent session of the American Chemical Society here came when Prof. Walter H. Eddy of Teachers' College, Columbia passed his pocket a small vial and passed it to a chemist who semblied chemists. All they could see was a little white powder at the bottom of a bottle which might have been salt or sugar so far as they could see. Yet it created a sensation since it was a very rare occurrence anyone had ever seen and handed. For many years biological chemists have been in pursuit of the elusive substances which were known to go on for a long time. They have been extracted and identified because they were so small in amount, so mixed up with the complex constituents of the food, and so easily decomposed by chemical process of purification. Five Vitamins Exist Five more of these vitamins have been shown to exist by the fact that when white rats are fed with foods from which some one of them is absent the animals do not thrive. They may stop growing or fall ill with various maladies or fail to reproduce. A French chemist named Wildier in 1900 found that yeast contained a substance which in extremely small quantity would greatly increase the growth of the yeast plant. He named it "Blow" but was not able to isolate it. Since then many chemists have tried to grow yeast, and some could get it out in a pure state on the now, when Professor Eddy has obtained it in clean crystalline form. Bos Stainthus growth It is sufficiently pure to have a definite melting point, 223 degrees Centigrade, and can be analyzed. It is found to contain five atoms of carbon, six atoms of nitrogen, and three atoms of oxygen in the molecule. Professor Eddy, when questioned as to its chemical structure declined to commit himself positively at present but said that it might be regarded as "a reduced pyridine ring." Bios Stimulates Growth The same product can be extracted from alfalfa. Bloes has a remarkable potency as a stimulant to growth. It is also used in the dredging of a milligram, which is about as much of the powder as could be caught on the point of a pin, given its size and young art stunted by living on a deficient soil. It causes it to grow again at a normal rate. Twenty Will Be Officers R. O. T. C.
