Dear Brother Phi Psi: Allen Bureh, Kansas alpha $14, more familiarly known to his brothers in the fraternity as "Doc" Burch, is a candidate for nomination to the Supreme Court of Kansas, I am pleased to recommend Allen Burch to you for two reasons. He has been a good Phi Psi for thirty years and it would be a distinct honor to the fraternity to have a member of Phi Kappa Psi on the Supreme Court of Kansas. As a fellow attorney practicing in Doc's home town, I am acquaint- ed with his legal ability and background and I know he is the caliber of man we need on our Supreme Court. Allen Burch is a graduate of our own University of Kansas Law School. He has practiced in the state and Federal Courts for twenty-seven years, and would bring to the Supreme Court a working knowlédge of law and justice. If you are a Republican, I solicit your active support for the candidacy of our Brother Phi Psi at the primary election August lst. If you arentt a Republican, I hope you will support Brother Allen Burch at the general election, provided he secures the nomination to the Supreme Court at the Republican primary.

Come in and tell us your troubles. TUBERCULOSIS 2 IT is an infection caused by Bacillus tuberculosis, more specifically and accurately Myobacterium tuberculosis hominis. There are definitely different families for cattle, birds, and fish. Occasionally bovine tuberculosis attacks humankind, especially babies. This is part of' the factual background for requiring so much meat and milk inspection and supervision. Around twelve percent of all human deaths are believed to be caused by tuberculosis. In the United States the rate is only about two-thirds that much. For a little more than a generation we have been trying to do some- thing about tuberculosis. in Kansas. In 1909 the late Dr. S. C. Emley, of the medical faculty of Kansas University took a two year leave and spent it in traveling about the state with a special car (railway car) lecturing, giving demonstrations, and distributing literature about it. At about the same time the Sanatorium at Norton was founded. Within the next ten years the Tuberculosis and Health Association be- came active all over the state and for about twenty years has mains tained a monthly tuberculosis diagnostic clinic in Lawrence. They have spent about 25,000.dollars on this clinic and associated activi- ties and have raised about 32,000 dollars for the work in Kansas and .elsewhere,. Many cases have been diagnosed here and the contacts have been investigated and followed up. Several cases have been traced to their probable origins and doubtless many cases thus stopped before they got started. This disears has been progressively and more fearingly known for several hundred years. Bunyan called it "Captain of the Men of Death", The study of it was becoming more coordinated, less superficial and more coldly scientific in the latter half of the last century when Robert Koch, in 1882 discovered the specific bacillus and did his monumental:work on it and his epoch making "postulates". Since then things in this field have moved faster, with less error, and with ..: more results. In 1900 the death rate from tuberculosis in the reg- istration areas of the United Statcs was 201.9 per 100,000 and ii I950 it was 71.5. It is doubtless less now despite the presence of war which always increases the number of cases and the deaths from tub- erculosis,. Why don't we all get it? Most of us do. Some careful studies made in Germany on bodies of city dwellers, dead from other couses than tuberculusis showed that ninety percent of them ec nialed tuberculous seSions. We believe the percentage in our countev is much iers. dut we still cofisider that more than half the population is infected be- fore reaching maturity. Why don’t we ali die of it? We all nave 4 relatively high resistance to it and most of us have oncugh to enable us to heal is in and so far isolate and wall it up as to make symptom- atic and practical recoveries. Were it not for this relatively nigh resistence, tnis one little "bug" might readily terminate our species, The great Osler in a posthumous edition of his work on. Practice of Medicine, when this matter is under discussion, says " Only a natural immunity keeps the race alive". Something can be done about increasing this resistance and about pre-e venting exposure to infection. In either event it is important, al- most imperative, to know who is infected. Several tests and forms of examinetion are in use, ail calculated to get useful information, bear- ing on this point. The State Board of Health, the Tuberculosis and Health Association, the Kansas Medical Society, the Douglas County Medicai Society and the Douglas County Health Unit are joined in pro- moting a case finding campaign in this county. It will be done mostly by X-Ray examinations, but in doubtful cases, other modes will be employed. Tne apparatus will be set up in the Community Building in Lawrence, will be offered for use three periods each day and will continue from May 25 to June 1, inclusive except Sunday and Decoration Day. There will be convenient tollets, dressing rooms, and the like, and helpful attendants. Approximately definite appointments may be made for in- dividuals or groups. Everybody is not only invited but urged to take this examination, (I expect to take it myself.) but there are some special groups that can- not well afford to miss it. Some of them are; Teachers, Food Handlers, Cooks, Waitresses, TB Suspects, TB Contacts, etc. There will be no feces chargéd.

Summer Sports Being Planned At a meeting of the Sunflower Athletic Association in the Commu- _ nity Building, April 17, ways and means of providing sports and amusements for the Villagers this summer were discussed. James Drake, Mrs. George Miller, Ray Coulson, Mrs. Wayne Sellers, Wally Helm and Charles Hagen were se- lected as a committee to confer with the housing manager, Ira Nuzum and tenant aide, Margaret Ford, regarding the assistance that could be expected from the FPHA. é At this conference the commit- tee was asked to list the equipment that would be needed and the space required for the installation of the playing fields. These requirements have been placed in the hands of the FPHA Regional Office in Kan- sas City and immediate action is expected. Among other things the com- mittee’s plans call for two baseball diamonds and one tennis court and bleacher space to accommodate about three hundred.

Much delin- quency is caused by neglect of parents, lack of neighborhood ad- vantages, and the desire for things that money can buy. If recreation leaders can help these young peo- ple obtain some of the security, the opportunity for self-expression, and the thrills which they now lack, many will become useful citizens. “We must, however, find these restless, alert children when they are young and train them in as club leaders, monitors, junior lead- ers, and members of such groups as youth councils. Sometimes the shy child has unexpected leadership abilities but doesn’t know it. It is the leader’s job to help these young people develop confidence in them- selves and put their abilities to work for the benefit of all,” con- tinues Mrs. Livingston, who will devote part of each session at the Recreation Leadership Training Institute to be held in the Robinson gym, to leadership methods and ways of organizing and using jun- ior and senior councils, leaders’ clubs, and volunteers. ’ Anne Livingston, herself a rec- reation leader of long experience, has for the past seven years trained hundreds of professional and vol- unteer recreation leaders in insti- tute courses, most recently in con- nection with the servicemen’s cen- ter at Miami Beach, Florida, the third largest in the country. The local institute is sponsored jointly by the National Recreation Association and the University of Kansas. Classes will be held from 6 p. m. to 10-p. m., except Satur- day, the last day of the institute, when the time will be divided. Classes will be from 10 a. m. until noon and from 2 until 4 p. m. All who are interested in recreation training are urged to register early with Margaret Ford at her office in the Administration Building. Experts in sports activities from the University of Kansas were in the Village Monday to see what bossibsities were chat for an ex- panded sports and play program. Dr. Forest C. Allen, dteeern of Athletics of Kansas University, Miss Joie Stapleton, member of the faculty and Reginald Strait, member of the University coach- ing staff, accompanied Margaret Ford and Ira Nuzum on a tour of the Village and all possible sites were surveyed. Dr. Allen intends to make an analysis of the needs of the various aged children in the Village and draw up a plan for location of play- ground equipment and suggest ways and means of supervised play. This plan when completed will be presented to the members of the Athletic Association of the Village who in turn will consult with the Regional Office of the FPHA. Among the many facilities for recreation suggested by the visitors from Kansas University were, soft ball diamonds, tennis courts, picnic ovens, sand boxes and additional: play equipment for smaller chil- dren. A suggestion was advanced that the space behind the stores could be surfaced and used as ten- nis courts and also for an outside meeting place for parties, picnics and dances. ERECTS SIGN BOARD | FOR ROLL OF HONOR An attractive sign board has been erected at the south end of the Guard Headquarters building, at the plant, to be used for a roll of honor. The board is attractive- ly built and painted in the National colors. It is on a terrace where plans call for flowers to be planted. The names of those in the armed forces will be enscrolled upon the board at once, and names of those who leave from time to time will be added. No accurate estimate of the number of names could be ob- tained. ee May 4, 1944. Mre ¥. C. Hurt, President, Philbrook Art Center, 2727 South Rockford Road, Tulsa 5, Oklahoma.

They are in need of assistance both in ea setting up and supervising the program and also in the se- Ce eae lection and purchase of equipment to be used. | se It is my understanding that an ample appropriation is available to cover these purchases and that the authorities are urging that they not delay longer. With their lack of knowledge of a project of this kind it is their desire to call upon you for any and all assistance which you can see your way clear to lend. A program of this kind at Sunflower Village is very de- sirable in that it is of benefit to the children themselves, and in addition, with the plant operating on a three shift basis so that parents must sleep at odd hours, these children must be adequately supervised away from home. It is the thought of the village authorities that there are pupils in your department who might devote time to the oper- ating of this program and obtain some credit toward their class work as well as obtain practical experience. However, before this possibility can be discussed it will be appreciated if you can find it possible to survey this project in detail and give the Sunflower Village group the benefit of your experience in this.work. The village officials are desirous of meeting with you at your office, and if you will ‘phone me as to & convenient — time I will be glad to arrange with them accordingly.

I am sure the framed menbership plaque, which you presented to your members, was received with real appreciation.

It seems that your name gets into the papers once in a while, and I was interested in reading the "U Pm report this past month from Kansas City outlining some of your ideas for basketball rule changes. The "NE" published a shot of you with two of your players, Barrington and Dick, and I saw this just one day last week in the Illinois State Journal from Springfield. I have been a keen basketball fan since my days in high school and college, and can appreciate the fine leadership you are giving not only to the Kansas University team, but to basketball generally.
