Aside from the benefit that is bound to come to the University because of the organization of the alumni, the meeting in Kansas City last Saturday evening presages a closer union among the state schools that has been long needed. FOR GREAT STATE SCHOOLS For years it has been a common opinion that graduates from the various state schools were so devoted to their respective schools that there could be no association with the graduates of other colleges. If the plan of the alumni is followed out there will be a cooperation among the state alumni that will do much toward clearing any of the difficulties that may come in regard to the policy or to the attitude of each school. The meeting in Kansas City was the beginning of a new era in state institutional progress and as soon as the alumni organization gets upon a working basis we may expect to see a systematic and powerful influence brought to bear upon the regulation of our state schools. It is to be hoped that the alumni of the State Agricultural college and of the State Normal will cooperate in this movement. It can mean only good for the schools from which they came. By the refusal of "Uncle Jimmy" Green to become again a candidate for president of the Athletic Board, the University is losing the services of a man who has been perhaps the greatest factor for clean athletics that the school has ever known. During his tenure of office many perplexing questions regarding athletic relations with other colleges and the enforcement of certain rules within our own athletic circles have been considered and Dean Green has always been the champion of a high grade of school athletics. OUGHT TO HAVE PETITIONS The Athletic Board ought to be subjected to the same regulations by which the Student Council is governed. The Athletic Board occupies a distinctive and important position in regard to one of the most vital questions of the student body namely, the governing of University athletic relations. The men who are on this board determine to a large extent the attitude of the school upon the question of clean athletics. There is no doubt but that by the present system of caucus nomination we get good men, but there is no reason why we should not compel each man who wishes to be on the Board to have a petition circulated similar to those used by candidates for the Student Council. At the least it creates a greater degree of responsibility on the members and will probably add an element of interest that will work for the betterment. The plan could hardly be adopted this year but there is no reason why its adoption should not be urged for next year. OFF FOR SALINA Agnes Conrad a sophmore in the College, Fred E. Lee, a senior in the College and H. C. Herman, secretary of the university Y. M. C. A., left today for Salina. They are delegates to the convention of the Kansas Student Volunteer Union. The convention will be held at the Kansas Wesleyan University during the Easter holidays. Student Volunteers Will Hold State Convention There. Mr. Lee has been president of the union for the past year. He was elected at the convention that was held at the university last year during the spring holidays. When you visit the folks at home take a box of Wiedeman's chocolates. KRESS 5-10 AND 25 CENT STORE Two Kinds of Guarantee It is not so very long ago that when you passed your money across a counter in the average store the deal was closed. A sale was a sale. We have always done our merchandising on a different plan—a plan in which the customer's satisfaction was the principal thing. For Example: Every pair of Hosiery we sell-no matter how high or low the price-is guaranteed to wear to your full satisfaction or it will be replaced with new. FOI EXAMPLE, AGAIN: We guarantee the price of everything we sell to be as low as or lower than the same article or pattern can be bought anywhere else. If in a day, a week or a month later you find the same thing lower elsewhere, make a claim upon us and it will be allowed at once. Such guarantees as these make buying at this Store very safe indeed. They illustrate as well as the written words can do it the attitude which this Store has towards its patrons. PLAY GOLF WITH TOPEKA Oread Club Will Engage in Out of-Town Contest Saturday. Prof. E. H. S. Bailey of the department of Chemistry will lecture on "Cure for Food Adulteration" before the Bison high school, Friday night.

The Medical school of the University of Kansas scored a remarkable success in an examination of 105 applicants for sixteen internships, at the Kansas City General Hospital, five seniors in the Rosedale school were successful in passing the examinations. The five men are: Frank R. Teachnor, J. R. Van Atta, R.W. Hissem, H.G. Norton, G.E. Knappenberger. Among their competitors were seniors representing John Hopkins University, Pennsylvania University, Northwestern University, Texas State University, Physicians & Surgeons College, of Chicago, Illinois State University, University Medical College of Kansas City, and several others. In winning five of the sixteen positions, Kansas tied with Pennsylvania, for first place in the number of successful candidates. The fact that the Kansans were able to surpass the competing graduates of some of the foremost medical schools in the country, shows conclusively, the high and efficient standards of practice and method maintained by the Kansas school. The internships are held for one year. Aside from offering opportunity for practical and educational work, a substantial salary is paid the holder. TO EXPLORE THE KAW.
