Pan-Hellenic Decides Against Fussers at All Games
STEADIES ARE EXEMPTED
But They Must Sit in Rooters
Section
The University Pan-Hellenic Cou-
cil offers a compromise on the question
confronting K. U. men as to
"dates to football games or no?"
bers of the twelve national social fraternities in K, U. do not take "dates." If any feel that they must disregard the suggestion, the council asks that the couples sit with the general student body on the north side of the field so that the escort can root along with his dateless comrades.
Saturday's game was witnessed by many student couples in spite of paddling and blanketing for the bold boys. Apparently student sentiment is unable to overcome entirely the custom of heming dates to games.
The Pan-Hellenic is also making
their debut in the meet.
The date has not been decided.
Chancellor Says Good Music is Part of One's Education —Hear Artists
SHOULD ATTEND COURSE
"My advice to all students" said Chancellor Frank Strong this morning "is to take advantage of the concert course offered this year as good music is a part of every one's education."
"Students appreciate music I believe" he continued "but they are busy with other college activities and are inclined to neglect this phase of their learning. Seldom is the student able to hear an assembled artist's course with a program equalling this one. Comparatively few of our students live in towns where such musical advantages, as our co-ct course are offered
According to Dean Butler, the scores may be discontinued this year if he course does not pay out. It is ooped, however, that students of the class make the benefit of these programs and contribute their support accordingly.

All women in the University are elibible to become members of the association. To insure the individual enthusiasm of the members they are not elected but anyone who is sufficiently interested may join the W. A. A. by applying to the Women's Athletic Board in the Gym.
"The purpose of the campaign," said Miss Jones, "is to stimulate the women of the University to a greater interest in athletics, to place sport upon the basis of a real desire for physical fitness." The university's wealth of University women. It is not the purpose to develop women's athletics at K. U. for financial gain."

NO MORE EARLY CHAPEL
Senate Abolishes Eight o'Clock Morning Worship
ATTENDANCE WAS POOR
Christian Associations Looking After Religious Life
The eight o'clock chapel in Frase, Hall has been abolished by the University Senate. Owing to the numerus other religious bodies on the Hill which are doing an effective work among the students, the Senate deheld responsibility for continuing yesterday afternoon to discontinue he early morning worship.
"The religious organizations on the Hill have grown to such an extent and the spirit has permeated the entire student body to such a degree," said Secretary E. P. Engel of the university that has decided to do away with chapel this year. Last year the average attendance was never more than one hundred. This audience was composed of Bible study classes and fraternity or charity freshmen who had been compelled by their respective organizations."
Professor Engel estimated that the average attendance the first semester was seventy-five. During the second semester about eighty-five or ninety students were present each morning.
"Perhaps we are wrong in doing away with this worship, but I hardly believe the attendance would have been any greater this year, than it was last year." The wait was more last year than the attendance warranted," continued Mr. Engel. "It was a big undertaking to get the really big men from out-of-town here to talk, and the expense was in comparison. It was accompanied by the work this year had we thought that the students would have attended.
"The Tuesday night meetings of the Christian Associations and the other meetings during the week in the churches really do all the work, but when you have a morning chapel. For that reason there will be no chapel this year."

We expect to make a study of the policy club, the Americanico, the Carribean, South America and the Orient. There is an opinion prevailing that the club is a peace organization. The International Policy Club is bound by the Constitution of the United States and it provides that 'this organization stands pledged to the fair and impartial study of international relations with a view to the formulation of a sound foreign policy for the United Nations' society."
All shades of opinion are welcomed. With a great program, a list of able speakers who will visit t University and a great deal of material will be presented in important questions, the Club should be of value to every University man."
