This is a University occa sion representative of all phases of college life as soon through tho eyes of iht cartoonist. ) It was firBt in auguiuted by tho University Y. M. C A , and this evening's celebration Is being promoted by that organiza tion.

As a venture of a rather serious vein, will bo tho presentation of "Tho Diary" by mombers of the Dramatic club This Is a little playlet written by Dona Van Dusen depicting a pa thetic Incident from real life. Earl Sage will appear In the principal part and will be assisted by Mario DouglaB and Louis Home The Agricultural club will give a realistic version of farm life. Mem bers of tho faculty will be the prin cipal sources of delight In tho sketch The fourth number on tho program will be a couple of selections by the Glee club. "-Down on the Santa Fe" is the al luring title of the engineers1 novelty. The real "1'vo been working on tho railroad" idea will be worked out in this number and it is expected that several prominent engineers will be seen in characteristic parts. The Palladlans and tho Unions will consontrato on tho faculty by present ing a life-like portrayal of a Senate meeting. It is naid that no one will be spared, from the Chancellor down. Instead of an operating table for their Bcene, as was tho case last year, tho MedlcB will use Dr Lyman's drug counter as a means of displaying their wit. The program will be closed with a "rush" when the fraternity men pro sent their original spectacle of "Side lights on Rush Week." This is a creation emanating from the fertile brains of "Peanut Hill" and C. F. Rad cliffe. Arrangements for University Night have been in the hands of tho follow ing committee, which will supervise the ovonlng'B festivities: Vorn Bates, chairman; Fred McConnolL B. S. Hill, Ernie Frank, Dana Van Dusen, and Guy Kiddo. Kansas Play a Suocess. "Billy" was recently produced by tho Kansas Dramatic olub and was decidedly a success.

Count Luetzow, tho distinguished Bohemian nobleman who spoko at convocation yoBtorday, was introduced by Chancellor Avery as "perhaps the greatest European statesman, Bcholar and historian who ever stood upon this platform." Tho object of tho count's vlBlt to this country 1b to interest Americans In Bohemia, and his talk was devoted to the history of that country. Ho began by showing that the blood of tho Bohemian waB not related to that of the gypsies, as is generally sup posed. Then he gave a brlof history of his nativo land. The count's voice, which Is UBually clear and strong, Bhowed tho effects of tho unaccustomed oxertlon of a week of constant speaking. Tho count himself was not quite In his usual health, having been somewhat effected by the rigor of the American winter. In personal appearance Count Luet zow would pass almost anywhere as a prosperous American buslnosB man. He has tho hale, ruddy face and cheery smile of an optimist. HIb command of English Is quite remark able, but his accent 1b distinctly foreign. FOUR CANDIDATES OUT FOR IVY DAY ORATOR RALP4H GARRETT, J. F. ROHN AND D. M. ROGER8 ANNOUNCE.
