Of course, we could give him a job that would pay 56” an hour, and he could work two hours a day at that rate. That is the most any students get - 35¢ an hour. Will you kindly see him and talk with him and sell of the University as a place to cet an education, rather then as a place comerned primarily with athletics. do our very best to see that he gets a woll-rouded education if he comes to the University of Kansas.
