Mr.. Kilroy has been an outstand-
ing student since coming to the

tivities. He was also selected to rep
resent the undergraduate student

al alumni dinner opening the series
Of alumni activities incident to the
year OF golden jubilee, which will be
held In New York. at the Hotel
Pennsylvania, this evening.
This council was organized several
years ago when the undergraduate
student bodies of the School of En-
gineering and Architecture and the
College of Arts and Sciences assumed
a new Importance with the reorgan-
ization of the university into grad
uate, undergraduate and professional
units. It is the channel through

ulty and administrative officers of
the university are directed. Through

Ion Of proposed measures.

With Pittsburgh
Pirates

Pittsburgh, Aug. 1.-CUP) Byron
(Whizzer) White, the University OF
Colorado's All-American football
hero, will play professional football
with the Pittsburgh Pirates this sea-
son before attending Oxford as q
Rhodes scholar.
White accepted the $4,000 con-
tract offered him for the coming
season early today In a telephone
conversation with Arthur Rooney,
president of the Pittsburgh Pirates,
members of the National Profess
sional Football League, Rooney an
nounced.
Rooney, who selected White in the
league draft at Chicago last Deem
Der, said White will go to oxford
in January after completing the reg
ular league schedule of II games and
four or five exhibition games.
The nations most highly pub
licized football player of the past few
seasons will perform in the Pirate
backfeld.
Changes His Mind
Whites decision was a reversal Of
one made six weeks ago when he
announced that he had turned down
the SIS 900 contract because he fear
ed he would lose his Rhodes scholar
ship and because he believed his
English classmates at oxford would
not care to associate with pro-
fessional athlete.
The Pirates selected White In the
draft after a number Of teams pass
ed him up because he had said he
would not play professionally.
Rooney took a chance.
This morning at / o'clock Dhite

ship committee had given him per-
mission to delay entering oxford,
although by enrolling about Jan /
he will have missed the first three
months OF the regular term.
