Surprise Snow Hits Kansas
TOPEKA (UP)—A sudden, surprise snowstorm dumped up to 7 inches of the welcome white stuff over the wheat fields of Kansas today.
Heavy snow fell from southwest Kansas into the midsection of the state. With the fall continuing though tapering off, many places reported 3 and 4 inches. Kinsley had 7.
There also was rain, which in most instances preceded the snow. The moisture at Lindsborg in central Kansas was .97 of an inch, with two inches of snow by dawn.
Virtually all of Kansas received some precipitation although the northwest, north central and southeast areas got only small amounts
The Kansas forecast for today is heavy snow warnings in the northeast portion. Rain or snow extreme southside with snow elsewhere this afternoon and east and central portions tonight, diminishing extreme northeast Tuesday. Heavy snow accumulating four to six iches or more is likely over northeast portion by late tonight. Colder today and southeast tonight. Warmer west Tuesday. Lows tonight 15 to 20 northwest to 30s southeast. Highs Tuesday near 40 extreme east to lower 50s extreme west.
Anatomy Meeting Reports Presented
Research reports by University faculty members and graduate students were given at the 69th session of the American Association of Anatomists in Milwaukee, Wis. April 4-6. Four other graduate students from KU also attended.
Reports were presented by Dr. Paul G. Roofe, professor of anatomy; H. B. Latimer, professor emeritus; Nicholas Hotton, assistant professor of anatomy; Leland E. Keller, Richard Hoar, Lawrence graduate students; Robert W. Goy and Dr. W. C. Young, professor of anatomy, and Joseph Davidson and Byron S. Wenger, assistant professors.
'Phog' Proposed For Governor, Blasts Henshel
A devastating tornado whistled across the Kansas plains during the KU spring holidays, but the destruction it wielded had to compete with another tornadic force—the foghorn voice of Dr. F. C. Allen—the man without a job.
A few days after the Board of Regents turned down Dr. Allen's request for an additional year as head basketball coach, Dr. Allen broke his self imposed silence when he learned that he was the defendant in a $35,000 slander suit filed in Jackson County, Mo., by Harry Henselsh, an official of the AAU who has been under fire by Dr. Allen for the Santee decision.

Between his blasts at Col. Henshel on a speaking tour of the state Allen took time out to call the Kansas Board of Regents a "nest of politicians," to ponder over a request that he file for the Republican nomination for governor of Kansas, and to make denials of a charge that Wilt Chamberlain, 7-foot freshman KU basketball player is a professional.
Col. Henshel, suit papers in hand, was ready to deliver them to Dr. Allen if he showed up at the Olympic playoffs in Kansas City last week. Dr. Allen didn't show up, but got a good laugh when he learned of Henshel's vigil.
Last Friday Hensel accused Wilt Chamberlain of being a professional. He said Chamberlain played for pay as a 16-year-old in Cumberland, Md. Chamberlain denied the charges.
THIS IS KANSAS—Jane Pecinovsky, Kansas City, Mo. junior, shows annoyance at the snow and cold weather that suddenly descended upon KU early this morning. Miss Pecinovsky's concern is easily understandable, as she arrived by bus at 7:30 a.m. today from her spring vacation in Mexico City. After taking one look at the snow this morning, she resolved to go back to Mexico as soon as possible.
Ed Abels, editor of the Lawrence Outlook, urged that Dr. Allen enter the Republican gubernatorial campaign.

Resources Talks End
As the productive plant in floodplain areas is rebuilt to utilize modern technology, it should be placed on elevated platforms, Dr. Charles C. Colby said at the closing session of a Natural Resources conference Friday.
"How much longer shall we ignore the laws of flowing water?" asked Dr. Colby, who is emeritus of the geography department here and now director of the Kansas Basin project.
The need for careful engineering for proper land use," was emphasized by Dr. Colby. "Lands of quality, those that are level with ground water underneath, must be respected and put to their best use, be that agriculture, commerce or industry."
Kansas can not hope to attract industries that use huge quantities of water, but Dr. Colby confidently predicted that "Kansas is at the dawn of its tomorrow" regarding the growth of selected industries.
Bulletin To Feature Teaching Studies
The final edition of Kansas Studies in Education for the academic year released this month. Dr. Oscar Lahore associate professor of education, is editor.
The final edition of the bulletin consists of six studies, summarized by Ernst E. Bayles, professor of education, entitled "Experiments with Reflective Teaching." Each study was written as a master's thesis by a person conducting teaching experiments in Kansas schools. They include one on the teaching of American government; three on the teaching of American history, and two on upper elementary grades.
2 Juniors Awarded $500 Scholarships
Arthur Vincent Leonard, Leawood junior, and Jay Dee Ochs, Wichita junior, have been awarded $500 scholarships by the Kennecott Copper Corp. of New York. Selection was made on the basis of leadership, coaching studies, leadership initiative, ambition, and need for financial help.
In addition, the corporation gave the University School of Engineering and Architecture $1,000 for the betterment of the school. The fund will be used for a research project in the department of mechanical engineering.
