Doctor Hyde Explains A.C.A. to Senior Women
In a talk before the senior women Monday afternoon, Dr. Ida H. Hyde, councilor for the Association of Collegiate Alumnae for the University of Kansas, urged the senior women to join the Association this fall to do the same a year, which entitles the member to the association magazine.
The Association of Collegiate Alumnae was started in -884. It is the largest association of college women in the world, having a membership of 8000. Any woman is eligible who comes from an institution complying with the standard set by the American University Association. It has a definite policy of fellowships for graduate study, of educational legislation of vocational guidance, and co-operation with the Children's Home in Washington. It gives two felios one of $500 for European study and one of $880 for study in an American college. In 1880 a graduate student from the University of Kansas had a fellowship for graduate work in mathematics in Europe.
The Lawrence branch was established in 1889. It has a scholarship of $50 every year and this is to be raised to $100 next year. The Association is going to furnish a room in the new Co-operative House. The Topka branch of the A. C. A. is also furnishing a room.
The Rev. Ulysses Grant Pierce, pastor of All Souls Church, Washington, will deliver the baccalaureate address at commencement, in place of the Rev. Charles Edward Jefferson, pastor of the Broadway Tabernacle, New York. Doctor Pierce is a graduate of Harvard and has been pastor of All Souls Church since 1901. He was chapelist of the United States Senate 1909 to 1913.

Col. P. F. Walker Writes
Alumni Engineers Letter
Wants All to do Something for Betterment and Enlargement of School
Eight hundred alumni of the K. U. School of Engineering will receive a letter this week from Col. P. F. Walker, dean of the School.
"My theme is the School of Engineering, and my purpose is to open the way for every one to do something to make the School better and bigger," writes Dean Walker. Outline ways in which the alumni can help, he urges that the alumni organization be kept up and that a large number of men come back for commencement this year. The discussion which is opening up an a war memorial is an additional reason given why alumni should come to commencement. More general support for the Kansas Engineer, the student naper, is requested.
"The University is moving just now into a period that promises favorably for growth and prosperity." "We may look for the years immediately before us to be the best in our history. The School of Engineering never has any 'student problem' and so we have no handicap at all. The way is open to us for more funds for research than we ever had before."
Hardwicke Nevin Sees War As Ambulance Man, Legionaire and Yank
Comes out of Hospital to Receive Five Decorations from French Government
It is not unusual to hear of wounded soldiers narrowly escaping death and being decorated, but when a Yank misses death three times in one day, goes to a hospital four weeks and then comes out to receive five decorations, even his father believes there isn't much use worrying over his coming out all too soon. So he fell Sergt. Hardwicke Newin, son of Prof. Arthur Nevin, of the School of Fine Arts at the University.
In his first escape young Nevin stopped his ambulance during the fighting of the Soissons drive to get a wounded soldier out of a cave. While looking after the soldier his ambulance was blown to pieces by a German shell. He then joined the Foreign Legion and went into the fighting at the front. He waited for reinforcements Nevin was wounded by a piece of shrapnel and fell into a shell hole next to an Arab.
Both were badly wounded but Nevin managed to crawl out of the shell hole with the Arab on his back, and while going back to Allied lines a Boche airplane attacked and killed the Arab. Nevin finally reached the main trenches and started to a rear first aid station. On the way back it was necessary to make three stops. It was later learned that each stop prevented him running into a barrage thus saving his life and the lives of his wounded comrades three times.
Young Nevin was wounded eight times by shrapnel and spent his twenty-first birthday anniversary in a hospital in France. He has been decorated with the Croix de guerre and with a palm medal, the medal militaire, the legion of honor, permission to military formation, indicating that his regiment had been cited. He is now with the intelligence department in Paris.
The expense budget for the year 1919-1920 of the University is now being made out but has not been passed upon by the Board of Administration. The budget will probably be made public by the last of May this year although it is not usually completed until the last of June.
His brother Jack Nevin went into the army when only 17 years old and has also been cited twice. He was with the Americans in the Pine drive against the Austrians, and was deputed for his work in that drive.

Jury to Be Impaneled Thursday for Trial of Hopfer and Shaw
Two Students Must Answer the Charge of Assaulting Undergraduate from Philippines
Many Students Subpoenaed
Uncle Jimmy Will Defend Men
Accused by Jose Ca-
jucum
The choosing of a jury in the case of Otto Hopfer and Wallace Shaw, students, charged with robbery, mayhem and assault with intent to risfigure, is scheduled for Thursday in the district court. Court convened Monday and the case of the two alleged Red Vigilantes, who are charged with having robbed and assaulted Joise Cajucum because of Caijucum's refusal to wear freshman cap, was given an early place on the docket.
Cajucum is a Filipino. He contends that he entered the University with advanced standing and is not a freshman. It is charged that a small band of students, among whom were Hopfer and Shaw, forcibly took Cajucum to a cemetery, cut his hair, and assaulted him, robbed him and then set him free minus his trousers. At their request, Hopfer and Shaw played guilty. Uncle Jimmy Green, dean of the School of Law, is counsel for Hopfer and Shaw. A number of students have been subpoenaed as witnesses.

Senior Class Selects Tablet For Memorial For Deceased Heroes
Giving Memorial Money to Student Loan Fund Was Other Plan Considered
Will Wait for K.U. Memorial
Committee, Consisting of One Senior and One Senate Member, Will Get Tablet
A bronze tablet bearing the names of all the men and women of the University who died in service was decided upon for the class memorial at the senior meeting Monday afternoon. Giving the memorial money to the student loan fund was the other memorial plan considered.
The choice of the memorial was made in conjunction with the pians of the Senate Memorial Committee. No matter what form of a University memorial is decided upon, it will contain a list of the men who died in the service. The giving of this tablet was required in the act form of the tablet will be decided after the University memorial has been selected.
A committee consisting of one senior and a faculty member selected by the senior memorial committee will have charge of getting the tablet. The money collected from the members of the class as memorial dues and that taken from the class treasury will be held in trust deposit. After payment, until the tablet can be bought. At a previous meeting of the class it was voted that the senior memorial dues would be one dollar for each member of the class.
"The Cass of 1919 is a war class more so than any other class," said Herman Hangen, president of the senior class. "For this reason members of the Senate memorial committee thought it fitting that this class have the privilege of giving the roll of honor. About $250 will be taken from the class treasury for the memorial and this added to the memorial dues will make about $450 with which to buy the tablet."
"A very suitable tablet can be bought for from four to five hundred dollars, according to prices received by the memorial committee," said Ester Moore, chairman of the senior memorial committee. "The memorial committee will begin collecting the senior dues soon."
The women of the class elected a May Queen, whose name will be announced the day of the May Fete.
