HOW COLD IS IT?—Vincent Wolfe, power plant engineer for the buildings and grounds department, examines a temperature chart which records the temperature at 6 degrees below zero. But the chart is somewhat suspect. Radio station KLWN announced the temperature as 14 below this morning, and the Lawrence Journal World said it had received a report that it was 3 below. Oh yes—Elmer F. Beth, professor of journalism, said it was 10 below.—(Daily Kansan Photo)

Truman, Nixon Feud Rekindled
NEW YORK (U.P.)—Former President Truman said today that whenever he thinks of the fact that Vice President Richard M. Nixon has called him a traitor, "I not only swear, I want to punch somebody."
Mr. Truman told newsmen during his morning walk that although he had known Mr. Nixon in Congress he had refused to see him since Mr. Nixon so characterized him
"I won't see him," he said, "it would just start a fight."
Mr. Truman said that when he recently was invited by senators to join them on the Senate floor, "I told them I wouldn't come into the Senate with him in the chair. They took him out and put Sen. Barkley in."
The matter of Mr. Nixon was raised when a reporter mentioned that Mr. Truman had used strong language in a radio and television speech. last night referring to charges that he and Gen. George C. Marshall were "traitors."
Japanese Movie Slated For 7:30
"Rashomon," a Japanese film that won a grand prize in the 1951 Venice Film Festival, will be shown at 7:30 p.m. today in Hoch Auditorium.
The drama, set in ninth century Kyoto, Japan under the Rashomon Gate and its surrounding forests, describes a double crime—a rape and a murder, as seen through the eyes of four different persons.
The Christian Century magazine said of the movie, "An interesting Japanese attempt to demonstrate cynically that man's efforts to arrive at truth fail because of his innate selfishness."
KU Football Pictures In Life
The latest issue of Life magazine carried two pictures taken at the Kansas-SMU football game Oct. 24, 1955. The photos were in an advertisement to help raise funds for the United States Olympic team for the winter games now taking place at Cortina, Italy, and the coming summer games at Melbourne, Australia."
This Dean's Office Walls Paneled In Mahogany
The School of Education has a new home, and Dean Kenneth E. Anderson has a new office unlike that of any other dean.
Back in 1946, when George B. Smith, dean of the University, was dean of the School of Education, he had visions of a paneled office with built-in closets and file cases. He even drew up plans for Bailey Hall to be renovated and paneled—even the hallways and classrooms.
Now, 10 years later, Dean Smith can only look enviously at the mahogany-paneled walls of Dean Anderson's office.
When the original plans calling for paneled walls were drawn up, Dean Smith thought that Bailey might be subject to the same chronic "creep" as Fraser Hall, former headquarters of the School of Education. Fraser has a tendency to slide because of the shifting of the bed of shale on which it rests.
stone, and would never trouble its occupants with cracking walls and falling plaster as in Fraser.
Investigation showed that Bailey was built on a solid-bed of lime-
As a result, Dean Smith's plans were scrapped and Bailey was finished with the more conventional plaster and paint—except for Dean Anderson's office.
Miss Maud Ellsworth, associate professor of art education, who helped design the color scheme for the remodeled Bailey, designed the dean's office. He wanted to keep the wooden office furnishings he had used in Fraser, but didn't think they would harmonize with the plain painted walls used in the other rooms.
The paneling cost no more than ordinary plaster and paint, Dean Anderson said. It is plywood, of pine base, with a veneer of open grain mahogany. Only two walls are completely finished with the paneling. One of the remaining two walls has built-in closets and files, the other is composed of large windows.
LUXURIOUS, ER?—Dean Kenneth E. Anderson of the School of Education is envied by other deans because of this office. Mrs. Billie Marie Wilbert, assistant to the dean's secretary, loves it.

City manager trainees serving their internships as a part of the University's city manager training program, are holding a three-day meeting in the Student Union Pine Room. It will end tomorrow.
E. O. Stene, professor of political science, is in charge of the meeting which concerns city planning. Thomas Via, director of city planning for Wichita, is speaker at today's session.
Over $100 was collected this morning to purchase an overcoat for the varsity player. A spokesman for the group said the coat would be presented to the player at Ames, Iowa today where the Jayhawks are warming up for tomorrow's game with Iowa State.
City Manager Interns Meet
Set up seven years ago by the political science department, the training program is for graduate students. After completing a year of study on the campus, they serve as interns a year under a city manager.
More than 20 Lawrence townspeople have rallied to the aid of a University basketball player.
The interns return to the campus every six weeks to report on their problems and progress, and to discuss one particular phase of city management.
The spokesman said any money left over would be used to purchase gloves or scarves for the other members of the varsity team.
People Are Kind; He's Warm Now
A. C. (Dutch) Lonborg, director of athletics, made the announcement this morning after he had been notified that Dobbs had failed to make the grade in the classroom.
No C Average
Coaches Phog Allen and Dick Harp said that Johnny Parker, former Shawne-Mission High School star, would probably fill in for Dobbs in a guard position in the Big Seven game against Iowa State at Ames Saturday night. The team left for Ames by train early this morning. Dobbs did not make the trin.
Mr. Lonborg said Dobbs failed to meet the athletic scholastic requirement of passing 24 hours in the previous two semesters and failed to maintain at least a C average in 60 per cent of all classes.
Mr. Lonbong added that Dobbs needed nine hours of C for the fall semester but did not meet the requirement. The announcement did not come until today because the results of late examinations were not learned until last night.
To date all of Dobbs' grades have not been turned in, a faculty athletic counselor told the Daily Kansan today. He has an incomplete course to make up before his grade average is official. Dobbs will not be able to play in Saturday's game, the faculty member said.
Dobbs played in the Oklahoma A&M game Jan. 31 between semesters. He had been named to the Big Seven Christmas tournament team, as he披ed Kansas to a surprising second place finish.
Leading Scorer
Dobbs, a native of Bartlesville, Okla., was the leading scorer in the Big Seven at the time the scholastic ax fell. He had scored 82 points in four games for an average of 20.5 a game.
Dobbs started his career at Kansas with a sensational sophomore year. Playing on the conference championship team, he scored 270 points and was named to all conference honors. He scored 317 points as a junior, including 36 against Kansas State for his career scoring record. He set an Allen Field House scoring record with 30 points against Oklahoma.
