Explorer to Give African Lecture in Fraser Chapel
Dr. Richard Sutton Will Tel of Adventures in Big Game Hunting Tuesday
"With Rife and Camera in Brightest Africa," is the subject of a lecture to be given by Dr. Richard Sutton, M. D., LL.D, of Kansas City, professor of dermatology in the University of Kansas, under the auspices of the Kansas School of Dermatology, April 9. The lecture will be given in Fraser Hall at 8 p.m.
Doctor Sutton has recently returned from his six months' hunting and exploiting trip in East Africa and will spend the remainder of his life on slides. An account of his trip is being published in the Sunday editions of the Kansas City Star under the title, "A Kansas City Physician" into East Africa After Big Game."
**Trip Started at Nairobi**
The expedition was organized at Nairobi, the capital and principal city of British East Africa. A white hunter, Alan Black, was selected as guide. Thirty porters and 19 staff members went to the party; their wages averaging $5 and $10 a month respectively.
Doctor Sutton and his friends were entertained at the Kamiti ranch near Nairobi, where he shot his first game. This ranch, containing more than 30-600 acres, is in one of the finest tracins in East Africa and it was here in 1909 that Colonel Roosevelt shot buffalo.
"When the trip was begun," said Doctor Sutton in a recent article, "The attire of our retinue looked like a collection from a rumple sale, and the further we got from civilization, the less raiment we saw. A string of coies, a sweet smile and a well sharpened apose constitute the front yard of Sandra's house from rubber tires were the favorite made of footwear.
**Africans Are Superstitions**
"As a result of a tataemic epidemia, some of the natives in the expedition had two permanent front teeth extracted so that they might be fed properly if lockjaw should develop." "Many of them were Mohammedan anafis who were not in their thrust had been cut properly by a true believer while life was still present.
See Many Animals
"The final game route selected was that known as the Archer's Post. In the first stage of the journey, Thoumarre, Kabuah, Buck, auck, crich and zebra were sighted. The kebran are considered a misuse and a large number were killed. All African game is far more tenacious of life than the game of the temper-
See Study Animals
"On the march down the Ouest Nyirre, crocodiles abounded the river, whose heads and grovens oxyps on a giraffe were also discovered. Signs of elephant and buffalo were prevalent. In a herd of elephant, or those whose tusks weigh more than 30 pounds each may be killed.
"Adventures in lion hunting furnished exciting experiences. With zebra bait, bomas or simple hiding places were constructed where the hunter might lie in wait during the night. The game laws of East Africa are very stringent so that the number of animals killed is limited."
Movement of 'Pacifists' Opposed by Veteran M
World war veterans at Northwestern University have initiated a movement to oust the "pacifists" from among the student body.
The movement was ceased by the action of a large number of theological students who pledged them to the mission and were active in any cause. Their activities have been arousing much agitation among the Methodist Episcopal church officials and the entire entire body at the university for some time.
Dr. Walter Dill Scott, president of Northwestern, at a patriotic mass meeting held recently, placed the university definitely on record as opposed to the activities of pacifist students.
Margaret Walker entertained the K Cloth girls and Misses Margaret Porto and Ruth Hoover at her home and Los Angeles station, Sunday evening.
Varied and Curious Mail
Received by Professor
The daily correspondence of professors who are in charge of the various departments of the University, contains many unusual requests and requests for information. Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith, head of the department of architecture, says he receives "all sorts of small." People write for information concerning the department, for free or for help in drawings, and blue prints.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, FANASAS. THURSDAY, APRIL 3, 1924
"One request," he said, "called for architectural help in the construction of a memorial hall to be built with shingle buttresses." Frequently former students of Professor Goldsmith write to him for help and information when trying to solve difficulties in their work. Also, because he is a graduate student at the Institute of Architecture and the Kansas Society of Architecture the amount of mail he receives each day is large and varied.

Students Should Play Safe and Be Vaccinated
Another warning that students who have not been vaccinated for typhoid fever and smallpox should see that it is done without delay was given by Dr. E. Smith, director of the University hospital, yesterday.
All who wish such treatment may obtain it free of charge, according to Dr. Smith, and those who are not vaccinated will be compelled to pay their own expenses if they contract the disease.
"Many have said that they have never heard of this rulning, in spite of the fact that it has appeared in print several times this year." Dr. Jenkins wrote to students once more that they attend to it before it is too late."
"Contagious disease is more prevalent in cold weather." Dr. Smith said, "due to the fact that we are stuck in up stuff rooms too much of the time. With the arrival of new patients out-doggers, there is less chance to contract disease. However, vaccination is the surgest preventive."

Mosquitoes' Diet Determined
Malarial mosquitoes have a preferential diet, according to the findings just reported from the John Hankins School of Hygiene. Mosquito studied in their native haunts in Louisiana were found to prefer live stock to men as food. It was estimated that during a day 76 fed on a horse, 60 on a cow, 19 on a dog, 10 on a pig, and 4 on human beings. When they are allowed to be the favorite diet. Later experiments show that horses and cows in the environment do not afford man absolute protection from the bites of the malarial mosquito, but that it is well to have a supply of live stock for protection. Slightly more than one out of every thousand mosquito tested were found to carry the infectious stage of the malarial parasite.
