In any affair that has served as a place of notification for many years.
Smoke Pipe of Peace?
Petitions Are Being Circulated to Have Him Come Next Fall
WANT TO HEAR ROBINS AGAIN?
Joseph says that pipes have been ordered for the "pipe of peace smoker" with the juniors on class day but additional plans for that function will be discussed at a meeting while they will be held durign commencement week will receive some attention and seniors who do not attend the meeting will lose out in some information that may cost them much time and trouble to attain that reason it is essential that every senior be present, Joseph says.
TALK ABOUT ESTES PARK
AT Y. M. C. A. SUNDAY
Do you want Raymond Robins to come back to the University when it opens next fall? You can go into Con Hoffmann's office and sign a petition which will be sent to him.

No Penn Relay Team
On account of the poor showing made by the Jayhawk track squad at Des Moines, Manager Hamilton did well against the Hawks. Penn Games at Philadelphia this week. Kansas, although breaking the former Drake record, was beaten by four teams only one of which, Michigan State, did not participate against the schools of the east.
Hask t to be Sold
J. R. Wise, superintendent of Haskell, denies that the government is to sell the school to the state for use as an agricultural school. He discredits the report coming from Manhattan, to the effect that the Haskell school will be sold to the state and combined with the University.
The Plymouth Guild of the Congregational church will give a spring party tonight in the church parlor students of the University are invited.
No "Sunken Read" Now

HEALS BOTH BODY AND SOUL
Dr. Naismith Preaches as Sideline
To make a hobby of the ministry is unusual. But that is what Dr. James Naimish, professor of physical education, gives as his favorite
Once upon a time the doctor hoped to enter the ministry and he attended seminars. The students feared it would be no financially successful career for a young man to pursue. So instead of curing the soul of a man with mental illness, has made a success of medicine.
However, the doctor was never fully released from his first venture. He has always liked the ministry and today is able to address a congregation and make his personality felt. He met a friend of Arthur Capper as chaplain for the first infantry of Kansas National Guards.

PLANS FOR SOPH HOP PROGRESSING RAPIDLY
Informal Event of Second Year Class Taking Form— Comes Next Friday Night
"SOPH HOP APRIL 30TH."
Boldly emblazoned on a huge white canvass, in black letters three feet high, the above legend greets each student as he enters the campus. The sign has been up for a week, and is but one of the many devices being used by the Hop management to press it upon everybody's mind that this summer the gymnasium year is to occur in Robinson Gymnasium just a week from tonight.
Preparations for the Hop goes forward rapidly each day, and, according to Larry Miller, sophomore president, the arrangements made thus far seem to indicate that the party will rival the rock star in decorations will be unique. Haley's orchestra is to furnish the music, and Wagstaff will cater. If that's not a guarantee of top-notch entertainment, says Miller, "I'll take a ride in the Engineer." It may be say that Wagstaff furnishes the music is like stamming 'stelleting on silver.'
Rehearsals of he farce, "A Box of Monkeys," are held daily, under the direction of Don C. Burnett. The cast is as follows: Mrs. Ondie Jones, Ita Hillsman; Lady Guildhoney, Jill Heywood; Dora Lockett; T ted Rabin; Alton Gumbiner; Chancey Oglethper, Henry McCurdy. In addition to the farce, several surprise stunts are being planned to furnish amusement for the guests, the management, how-refreshs, refuses to state just what they are.
Tickets for the Hop are being sold by a committee of thirty-two students, or they may be secured at the cheek stand in Fraser Hall between 8:30 and 9:30 daily. Seniors are requested to turn in their invitations at this time, in exchange for tickets to the Hop.
PET, REX, AND MULL DELIVER YOUR LETTERS
Team Work is Their Motto
Pet and Rex are their names. Of course you have noticed them many times as they helped Grant Mull, the postman, deliver the mail on the Hill. The joringg black horse is known as jackson and chaggy brown and white collie as Rex.
At 8:15 o'clock each morning they make their first delivery. Their approach is loudly heralded by Reks who will be on a walkway position in the government service, keeps an ever-watchful eye on Pet to see that she conducts herself as a trusted employee of Uncle Sam, sends the mail to the various buildings.
Rex also acts as the official starter for Pet. He receives the signal from Mr. Mull and a gentle nip at the horse's legs means it is time to go.
FINALE TO DEBATING SEASON
K. U. Society Ends Work by Making Plans for Picnic

Faculty Supper Will be Attended by 100 Professors on the Hill
Eighty-three faculty members have confessed!
That is, eighty-three masters of human destiny have confessed that their mouths are watering for chicken pie, such as will be served at the buffet tables in the cafeteria to be held Monday evening at 6 o'clock sharp in Robinson gymnasium.
Prof. E. F. Engel, chairman of the invitation committee, said this morning that he is gratified by the fine response made by members of the faculty. He said, however, that the committee hopes to have at least 100 at the supper and that all members of the committee should do so before 8 o'clock tonight, as it will be practically impossible to accommodate anyone after that.
Prof. H, F. Harrington is training the milk-fed, yellow-legged pullets that are born in a plum condition. In fact, he says that they are about the niftiest bunch of feathered bipes be ever found among those animals that he is some idude of fowls.
The program which is to be presented between courses has been completed. A number of University young women, under the direction of Dr. Alice L. Goetz, will present some folk dances and minuets. Chancellor Frank Strong and Prof. A. T. Walker will be the speakers of the evening. Their talks will conceive democracy in multifidilitate, and will be followed by an open discussion of the subject by the other members of the faculty. Guests will assemble in the men's gymnasium shortly before supper is served.
This function is the first of its kind ever held at the University of Kansas and those in charge hope to make it a successful event that it will become an annual event.
ENOUGH GERMS AT K. U.
TO KILL WORLD
But They're Safe in Test Tubes
It is just a prosaic-looking refrigerator, standing in the bacteriology laboratory on the top floor of Snow Hall, yet it holds enough bacteria of a disease in its little tubes to wipe out the entire population of the world.
Typhoid, tuberculosis, malaria, dysentery, diphtheria and all the rest are represented in the collection. Housed in their labeled containers is a large collection of the cause of science. Gathered carefully by skillful hands these bacteria, whose ancestry have killed more men than have all the wars of history, are being used not to destroy them but for the manufacture of vaccines and serums.
PLAYING GOLF TOURNAMENT
"Call Your Club." Second of Series Being Given by Oread Club
The "call your club" tournament, the second of a series of spring handicap tournaments held by the Oread Golf Club, will be held today and tomorrow. In this kind of tournament each player must announce to his opponent before each shot which club he will use on the next shot and he must use the club he has played during years that has always proved one of the most interesting of the novel golf tournaments.
A large number of the club members will go over the eighteen holes today although the weather is not the most promising. The rain of yesterday made the turf soft and ideal for golfing in case the overhead conditions are favorable. No entry fee is charged for this tournament and the scores pete either today or tomorrow. The scores made in this tournament and the other preliminary tournaments will be used to figure up the handicap for the final tournament for the Carroll trophy which begins May 10

SORORITY WOMN RESTRICT DATES
No Steadies at This Place
It's really true—winter has went and spring is here. And with the incoming of the warm weather and the outcoming of dog-tooth violets, low shoes and lower necked dresses one more time, University has passed a ruling that will create little commotion among some of the visitors at that place.
Noting with pain and humiliation that all the members are getting married before finishing school, this is what we want to do of the members who do not live in Lawrence can have more than one date with the same fellow from now until June, 4. And, more than that, that date is not a week-and-week date rule are to be enforced.
Later: All this certainly sounds very well and will make the hearts of the fond parents back in Whistleville bent with joy, but word comes suddenly that the ruling has been declared null and void for lack of an enforcing authority.
"WITCHING HOUR" NEXT YEAR
Dramatic Club Plans to Stage Play for Annual Production in 1916
"The Witching Hour" will be the featured performance by the University Dramatic Club next year if present plans of the management are approved. The club will under advisement by the committee, but final decision in the matter has not yet been made. "We want to attempt something really big next year," says Ms. Scalzi, head of the department of public speaking. "Our production of 'The Man From Home' seems to warrant that the club is capable of taking a step in advance—and 'The Witching Hour' looks like the play we are planning."
"The Witching Hour" is a drama in four acts by Augustus Thomas. Jack Brookfield, the hero, is a Kentuckian, warm of heart, ready of purse, chivalrous. At his house the tragedy of murder takes place; a boy, frenzied by the sight of a cats eye wearing a crown, is driving cats. The cat's eye has exercised a distressing influence upon generations of his family. Thus begins the story, and it is carried forward with strength and dramatic power. It is filled with the light of a new idea; telepathy, mental suggestion, and hypnotism playing important parts. The story is gripping, and offers an excellent medium for the display of real dramatic ability.
HOOFING OUT TO FRISCO
Eastern Football Man Walks Across Continent on Wager
Robert M. Herr, left halfback on last year's football team at the Baltimore Polytechnic School and a famous lacrosse player was in Lawrence last night on a "hike" he is leading the way for with a companion left Baltimore February 14, each taking a different route and if they reach San Francisco by July 4th they will each receive $500 from a Baltimore manufacturing firm, which made this offer to the men for advertising purposes. Should one of them fail to set and the other one fail, the successful man will receive $1000.
Herv has lost all trace of the other man but thinks he is aheath of his own.
THAT YELLOW WATER NOT
AS BAD AS IT LOOK
Lawrence city water won't hurt you. The water laboratory gave out the statement this morning that the water is free from any injurious bacteria.
The color is due to ferric oxide of iron, or iron rust. When drawn from the ground the water is clear. It contains a large amount of ferrous oxide of iron which is colorless. When exposed to the air the iron oxidizes and becomes yellow. This iron could be removed with a water softening plant.
DELIVER ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM THE CHECK STA
The senior announcements which have been ordered during the week will be delivered Tuesday and Wednesday at the check stand in Fraser. No orders for announcements will be taken later than Tuesday.
Still Postponing That Walk
Still Postponing That Walk
"Work on the proposed walk between Fraser and Hall has been postponed until the new entrance to Fraser Hall is completed," said John M. Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds, this morning. "With this entrance to Fraser Hall, we have all the work we can attend to."
Ames Game Called Off
The Ames game scheduled for yesterday afternoon was canceled because of rain. The next games will be with the Aggies at Manhattan.
MILITARISM A FEATURE OF ENGINEERS PARADE
Krupp Guns and Armored Motor Cars Take Prominent Place in Pageant
LAWS HAVE "MORNING WATCH"
Daddy Haworth Plays "Tipperary" on Dish Pan While Riding in "Fierce Arrow" —
Daddy Haworth a Star
It was not so successful however, in keeping its neutrality on straight for in the procession of fourteen floats, three were decidedly militaristic.
Aside from exhibiting a pickaninny garped with a smile taking his morning bath and the "rising sun" float perpetrated by the Laws, the Engineers' parade contained no startling breaches of etiquette.
The procession left Marvin Hall with the band tooting three different tunes in unison. The dignity of the pageant was disposed of early by putting Mrs. Eustace Brown, Chancellor Strong and Dean P. F. Walker in the car and bunching the cars of a well-known make behind preliminaries out of the way, the "Beta Fierce-Arrow" came containing chiefly Daddy Haworth playing "Tipperary" on a dish-pan.
Next the Civils pushed a bridge constructed of canvas. Four cars followed carrying the electrical freshmen and the mechanical freshmen float. "King Cole" was the name of the four-wheeled mine that kept two men busy reviving its victims with the "pullmotor."
The architects, disdaining the frivolities of their brother Engineers, erected a pergola of Doric columns around which roses were twined. This float was easily the prettiest in the parade.
Krupps Get Advertising
Arthur Johnson's forty-pound progeny earned honorable mention by sitting in a bath tub under pretense of bathing in Lawrence city water.
The Krupps violated American neutrality by allowing the chemicals, electricals, and mechanicals to show their armored cars and heavy gun models. The noise of the artillery however, failed to live up to its appraisal. The firing mechanism pearing mechanism worked excellently although sometimes the shots were fired before the gun barrel was elevated above the wall of the car.
Mrs. Eustace Brown and Chancellor Frank Strong were considerably placed ahead of the Law's "Morning Watch" float in the procession. One of the horses pulling the float dropped dead at Thirteenth and Mississippi streets. No reason is given for its death.
Three Hurt in Collision
E. C. Arnold, F. A. Madden and George Kampert, Engineers, were all slightly bruised in a motor collision about 10 o'clock this morning at the corner of Ninth and Indiana. The men were returning from down town with gasoline for the electrical's float when the accident occurred. The car was completely overturned with two of the men pinned under it. They were seated and lined his shoulder, and Madden and Kampert received a few painful bruises. Sixty dollars will cover the damages done the car. The driver of the other car was uninjured and no damage done his machine.
Two Hundred at Banquet
Two hundred engineers were present at the big banquet in the Gym last night. Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith was toastmaster for the occasion and all the speakers scheduled were Santa Fe from Topanga. Each department contributed with a little stunt to the evening's entertainment.
Dance Winds-up Day
Tonight's dance in the Gym will be the grand finale of the Engineers' festivities. The music, furnished by Haley's orchestra of Kansas City will commence at 9 o'clock. The man-made feature of the program and decorations other than that an unusually good program is scheduled an dthat the setting for the Gym will be that of an Engineer's camp. Punch will be served during the intermission. The affair is to be held on Friday from 10 a.m. to being sold at 50 cents and will be on sale at the door for any who delayed buying their green tags earlier.
Pi Kan Party Prevents Game
The Pan-Hellenic baseball game between the Phi Psis and Pi Kappa Alphas which was to have been played on Hamilton Field this afternoon has been postponed because of the formal party which the latter is giving tonight. A date for the game will be set within a few days.
