W. Blackmar, professor of sociology, in speaking before a meeting of the Sociology Club last night at the University of Virginia for migration bill, which Doctor Blackmar helped to draft. "It also has a strong selective process," said Doctor Blackmar, "be cause where a certain group of immigrants has been included to become naturalized and take part in making of America, or more to come, and restricts those who have been slow in naturalization." Present Bill Epipoles Sculpt The present immigration bill expires Monday, April 21, making necessary the passing of a new law by the present Congress. Under the law now in force in 2719, the new immigration law was enacted in 1923. The Johnbill bill, which is offered as an alternative to the Sterling bill, would allow about 200,000 immigrants to cross the border. The Johnson bill, according to Doctor Blackmar, would practically stop all immigration from Italy, Greece, Armenia, Russia, Poland, Chelsea-Shoah, and other countries expressing discontent among the foreign born coming from these states. "The Sterling bill has been introduced as a possible substitute for the Johnson bill, and seems to have been approved by the administration." - doctor Blackmar. Restriction Percentage Unchanged "It holds to the 3 per cent restriction of the present issue, the number of detention centers and the number of naturalized citizens of the several races and nations in 1910, plus the number of foreign people born at the same time. "Labor organizations and the Ku Klux Klan and many would be patrons are vitally opposed to increased immigration. On the other hand big business interests and the International Labor Party and irresponsible agitators are in favor of allowing people to work outside the home and Doctor Blackman, giving these conditions as the reason why immigration is so important.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1924 Special Spring Invented for Heavy Railroad Cars New York, Feb. 228—German State Railroads have adopted a bumper and drawbar spring said to be more than three times as effective as the usual bumper work, the American Machinist will say in its next issue. This new design marks the triumph of years of engineering effort to devise a spring in which the rear bumper would be brought to tension or torsional stresses. It is a ring spring and only porous and compression stresses occur in it. The spring consists of a series of inner and outer solid rings which fit into each other along central surfaces. When axial pressure is applied the outer rings are subjected to tensile stresses and then to compressive stresses. The spring action is produced by the dipping of the rings into each other which is allowed by their deformation.

Band Plays for Schools Doctor Allen Makes Short Talks on University Ideals "Phog" Allen, accompanied by the K. U. band under the direction of Professor McCannes visited Westport high school and Manual high school in Kansas City, Kans., high school Wednesday morning. The band composed of fifty pieces left here at 7:00 a.m. on June 14, played at Manual high school at 10:30, and at Kansas City, Kans. at 11:40. In the evening they played at the K. U.-M. U. dual track meet that gave rise to a short talk to the students on the University and her ideas. One of her ideals he said was clean sportmanship. "It is not so bad to have a group that it has clearly." Doctor Allen says. The band received a very enthusiastic reception at the three high schools where they performed for them and several of the K. U. yells were given. Mr. Shouse, principal of Westport high school made a statement that this may be one of many remarks that would be construed as flattery, but we were mighty proud to see the K. U. band leave the building without one more student. The statement said that the University students were commonly considered by many to be fast and were imitated by the students in other schools. Former K. U. students in Kansas City who furnished transportation for the band and accompanied them were StreetHair, advertising man and singer. George Bowles, composer of "I'm a Jay Jay Jayhawk" with Ferry Hain, director of the Lawrence Wangworth, past president of the Kansas City Alumna Association and leader of the Stadium-Union Mercers service team, presented the service they were guests of the University at the track meet. Rules Announced to Govern Annual Glee Club Contest Eligibility Rule Will Limit Competition Among Eight Valley Schools Rules which have been tentatively agreed upon to govern glae club contests among Missouri Valley schools of the University of Arkansas, Larmoremore, director of the K. U Glae Club and officiel of the newly organized glae club, are ordained by the Glae Club Association. These rules which will be put into effect with the first contest on Feb. 14, 1925 at Kuala Lumpur and the Intercollegiate Musical Corporation, which govern the annual play club contest at New York University, leading lancet universities compete. The competing schools, including jebraka, Kansas, Missouri, Drakeklahoma, Iowa State, Washington and Kansas State Agricultural college, will be limited to glee clubs of 10 more than thirty men. Only Undergraduates Eligible Only Class rules, somewhat similar to those of the Missouri valley athletics, allow competition to those of the Missouri Valley athletics. Each one of the eight competing clubs will sing three selections, one to be of the club's own choice, one a uniform "prize" song, and one college song. The judging of the competition has been based on a scale of one hundred points, with fifty points allowed for the prize song, twenty points for the college song and thirty points for the song selected by each glee club. Elements to be included in a judge's decision, ensemble interpretation and pitch. The contesting schools will draw for order of appearance. All members of the sple clubs will wear ribbons of their college colors diagonally across the booms of their dress shirts. Select Prize Song in October The "prize" song will be selected in October at a meeting of faculty and students from different schools at Kansas City. It is probable this song will be the same as the one selected for the annual glee club content for eastern university universities, western universities at Chicago. One girl, sure of where she so felt, was thought it unnecessary to keep watching as the crowd entered the turn-stile. She threw the wrong end, and consequently spent a hectic five minutes looking at the feet of the crowd for the right end. number registered by the stille." Gold-Digger Methods Used to Enter Games "They are merely attempts to get 'you' into your hands," says a professor of fact, the takers are on to the scheme, and the number of tickets usually coincide with the number of people who attend. "This isn't a ticket, mister. You'll have to get one at the athletic of fice." The advantage of having a uniform prize song is that the winner of the Missouri Valley contest will be enrolled to enter the eastern canyon of the Ozarks, despite stresses, without preparing a new song. The program for the Missouri Valley contest, as outlined will include twenty-four numbers, and will afford the audience a wide variety in numbers, from low to high, for the hundreds of former students in Kansas City to support their respective alma mater. Men are not the only offenders. One true gold-digger method is practiced by groups of girls, who get ahead of a man, walk through, and leave the ticket taker to collect from the poor unfortunate behind. That is the way that the men at the turfstalls handle would be spectators at the basketball games. They are also sitting in Tickets from old games that were not attended, and blanks cut from the top or side of the season card, the identical size of a real ticket, but made up of boards on the board that could be detected simply by feeling the edges, are handed in. One rise is to tear off both name and date from an old ticket, as if they were broken and boarded for the suit "abset-mindfulness."

Walker Will Discuss War in Student Forum Believes War Unnecessary but Prevention Is Duty; Non-Resistance Denounced "Preparedness, a necessary National Measure" will be the subject discussed by Dean F. I. Walker of Wake Forest University at 7:30 am on an open forum in Myers hall instead of "Preparedness, a Means to Prepare," previously also assumed for discussion. Dean Walker's concession of the question conforms closely to the second of four main attitudes adopted by the governor in an event held in Indianapolis in December. The statement was: "War is unchristian and should be abolished. That is why we must non-resistance in now impracticable and occasion may arise when it will be our duty to engage in war, all means of prevention have failed." War Never Desirable Although many believe in preparedness, no sane man will make a case for war on the grounds that it produces the virtues of courage and self sacrifices in the manhood of the nation, according to Dean Walker. The open forum tonight bears directly on the question now being asked whether or not college students should assume the attitude of pacifists, or stand firmly for national preparedness.

Missouri Defeats Kansas in Track Meet $ 47_{3}^{2} $ to $ 37_{3}^{1} $ Jayhawk Relay Team Wins, Breaking Valley Record of 3:24 4-5 by Fast Time of 3:24 2-5 Three records were broken and a little upset when the Missouri Tiger defended the Jayhawk in the annual dual meet on Friday night with a total of 47 2-8 points as balanced against the 37 1-3 corralled by the Kansans. Kebes, of Missouri, shattered a world's record in the high hurdles when he lowered the record of Bob Simpson to 6 seconds flat. The old record held by Simpson, who is now wearing a track star of that institution, was 0.1-5 seconds. The Jayhawker mile relay team set a new dual meet record in their event when they covered a distance of 328 meters, held by Missouri, was 3:28 4-5. In the 440-yard dash the Jayhawks pilod up 8 points when Fisher and Griffin ran away from the Tigers, which were the eighth event on the program and the Kansas victory gave the Jayhawks a 10-point tie with the Tigers, the high jump and shot put being uncompeted. Richerson of Missouri shot put while the 10-shot put when he put the ball 45 feet, 0-1 2 inches. Poor Wins High Jump The high jump was won by Tom Poor, lanky Kannas star, who crossed the bar at 9.1. This distance was below Poor's record but was sufficient to give Kannas a first in the event. An upset in the dope chart came when the Jayhawks failed to first and second in the 50-yard dash. Fisher of Kannas was beaten out of record by Simpson of Missouri, who must take up Graham of Kannas and tally up the first win of the meet. The pole vault was a triple tie between Dillenbeck and good of Kannas, and Donahue of Missouri. All three won the pole vault. The two-mile was a battle from the start. Grady of Kansas early took the lead in the event, setting the pace for the rest of the race and Lamar of Missouri. Poege took the lead away from the diminutive Kannan with fifteen laps to go, but he came close to the Tiger a few seconds later. With ten laps to go, Pope again spurred past Grady and took the lead, which he maintained to the finish. 'Grady fought throughout but was unequal to the task of running the Missiorn down. James spurred into second place when Pope took the lead. The first battle ended in battle until the final lap, when the Tiger runner sprung a flashy finish and sewed up the event. Moulder and Sims Disqualified In the half mile pitfinger, Missouri captain, was victorious, taking the event in 2-01. Watson of Kansas took account when Moulder of Missouri and Sims Missouri were (on a count) 4-1. *page 6* Engravers Sue Student Hudson Held for Bill of Annual at Pittsburg Suit has been filed in the district court against Harold A. Hudson, e24, by the John & Oliver En- gagement company as judge asks judgment for $1,042.77 and costs for engraving work alleged to have been done for the 1923 annual, "The Kanza," and Normal School at Pittsburgh. Hudson, who attended the normal school at Pittsburgh before entering the University, was business manager of the issue of "The Kanza" in question. The annual, which was published by the junior class, was issued at a financial lecture that at time endeavoured nonetheless to hold the entire class responsible for the debt, Hudson said. The company is now bringing suit against Hudson in an effort to hold him for three years, as the charge was filed against Hudson in the district court last spring, but the case was dismissed by the law enforcement agency by the swearing in company.
