Kappa Sigma Declares Is
Still in Yellow
Jacket Fold.
WON'T SWITCH PARTIES
By POLITICUS.
Kappa Sigma fraternity, said to
have indicated possible "change of
political color." la still with the
yellow jacket faction.
Refutation of any desire to join
the opposing ramp waa made em
phatically by the fraternity follow
ing appearance recently of rumors
to that effect.
An official statement has been
Issued by the Kappa Sigma frater
nity, reading:
Make Statement.
"The report that Kappa Sigma
will join ths blue shirt political
faction before the coming fall
elections Is without adequate
foundation. This fraternity wss
a firm supporter of the yellow
jacket platform last year, and
will assume the same attitude
this season.
"Active political participation
is planned by Kappa Sigma fra
ternity during the coming term.
More active men than usual have
returned this year which greatly
Increases the strength of the
chapter as a political power.
"With this added help the fra
ternity expects to push vigorous
ly all yellow jacket policies and
this faction can readily depend
upon Kappa Sigma support to
the upmost."
Faction Servlved.
So with thia group back in their
fold, the yellow jackets have taken
on new impetus, prior to the fall
campaign, according to . Neal S.
Gomon, faction leader. The ru
mors that were current about
Kappa Sigma's turning away were
not exactly relished by the yellow
Jacket promoters; hence they feel
somewhat relieved.
Meetings will be held by both
factions, supposedly, this week for
the purpose of lining up their
slates for the elections to be held a
week from this Tuesday.
It has always been the custom of
the political bodies to hold their
meetings a sufficient length of
time in advance to enable a check
on all eligibility requirements.
Scholastic Hurdle Difficult.
The scholastic hurdle haa always
been the. most difficult one to over
come. It is not a matter of grades
whether the tentative nominees
are Phi Beta Kappa prospects
hut it in a mutter of havincr enough
hours tucked away to meet the
rules set down by the university
authorities.
For instance, there's the matter
of having twenty-seven hours the
previous two semesters, besides
having twelve hours the immediate
semester before. And, too, each
candidate must be carrying- at least
twelve hours at the time he is put
up for office.
The Student council last spring
laid down a rule that all members
of that body must have an average
above 75 percent. Whether this
will include candidates for all of
fices remains to be seen.

MINNEAPOLIS. Minn.- Drouth
and the business depression in
stead of decreasing the enrollment
In American colleges this year, are
likely to, be marked by the heavi
est attendance In years, a survey
by the United Press Indicated to
day. Only four schools in the com
prehensive list included in the sur-1
vey reported a decreased enroll-
ment of any considerable size and
only three of them attributed it to
business depression. The Univer
sity of Mississippi reports fifty
fewer students than last year.
Indianna university reported 187
fewer students than at this time
last year and officials there as
cribed the decrease to "hard
times." The University of Illinois
gave its new student enrollment as
545 less than in 1929 but offered
no explanation.
"Studies of enrollment show that
periods of prosperity and depres
sion just about cancel each other,"
aaid Glenn Frank president of the
University of Wisconsin. "If these
periods have any effect on college
enrollment the tendency seems to
be for prosperity to slow up and
for depression to speed up regis
tration." Among the schools reporting in
creased enrollment with amount
of their increases were: Beloit
college, 105; University of Wis
