World University Group Helps Students, Faculty
University Daily Kansan
(Editor's Note: This is the first in a series of articles explaining organizations
to receive funds from the Campus Chest.)
One of the eight organizations to receive financial aid from this year's Campus Chest drive is the World University service, an international organization to help students and faculties in underdeveloped and wartime countries $ \textcircled{4} $
The WUS, represented in the KU Campus Chest for the first time, will receive 40 per cent of the money collected in the drive from Nov. 8-17, Fred Heath, chairman of the steering committee, announced. The percentage will amount to $3,077.20 of the $7,693 goal.
The organization is based on the belief that partnership, not pity, can create an international fellowship among students. It is sponsored in America by the B'nai B'rith Hillet foundations at American universities, the National Newman Club federation, the U.S. National Student association, and the United States Christian Council of the United States.
Funds the WUS receives will be used for medical aid, maintenance of rest centers, aid to refugee students, co-operative housing, educational supplies, and emergency food and clothing. Represented in WUS are CARE, UNESCO, and American Relief for Korea.
As a student health program, WUS helps students by establishing clinics, TB sanatoria, and medical services. It supplies food and clothing to students when these essentials are lacking.
WUS provides a program of student housing at universities in Asia where it is most needed and offers food, shelter, and funds for university fees to refugees. It helps meet the widespread student need for textbooks, study materials, and laboratory equipment.
A main purpose of the organization is to bring together all members of the world university community without discrimination because of race, religious or political convictions, or social and economic condition.
The first Campus Chest was originated by WUS in Illinois, and last year 700 major United States colleges contributed a percentage of their Campus Chest drives to the organization. Colleges of 35 nations are now participating actively in the program.
WUS stresses that it is not an outside charity appealing to Campus Chests for funds but is an instrument through which students and faculties can pool their efforts to help with international responsibility.

Chancellor Franklin Murphy addressed a combined meeting of the science clubs last Friday night with the tonic "Are Scientists Inhumane?"
Murphy Speaks To Science Clubs
Dr. Murphy emphasized that the citizens often expect too much from the scientist. He said they look to the scientist as "a person who can do much more than they are capable of doing."
The Chancellor said that the scientist should be well rounded. He said that just like a democracy which consists of the ingredients: humanity, loyalty and kindness, the student should acquire a broad education in the making of the many ingredients that compose the probing mind.
Dr. Murphy said that the future citizens should argue the political issues with which they do not agree Don't let them pass unchallenged The University is not a "play school," a place to get a job or a place where you put something on paper and receive recognition, but instead, Dr. Murphy said, the University is an establishment to learn and gain knowledge.
He emphasized the great opportunities that the University offers and urged that by taking advantage of this great store of knowledge we can "enrich our lives." He added that "this should be our pleasure to take advantage of these opportunities."

Los Angeles Smog Lift; Governor Wants Oil Shut-off
Los Angeles, —(U.P.)—Some smog prevailed in the downtown Los Angeles area yesterday, but by noon breezes had swept the skies fairly clean. Bright, clear skies, with a touch of clouds, were predicted for today.
The weatherman said the atmospheric inversion layer that had clamped the lid on smog for nearly three weeks had lifted and fresh winds should "remove the pollution we can't seem to remove ourselves."
Gov. Goodwin J. Knight said the present respite from the smog siege "should not be the cause for complacency" and renewed his request that the oil industry shut down its refineries here for a "test period." He added in a test of the industry's responsibility in this very serious problem."
However, Gov. Knight admitted he had no legal authority to force the closing of the refineries. The industry flatly refused his proposal earlier.
"A great many people believe that the refineries constitute one of the primary causes of smog," he continued. "I think the oil companies have an obligation to the people to make this test. . ."
Fireproofing Isn't Trusted
Charleston, S.C.—(U.P.)—The city council has voted to take out $5,000 worth of fire insurance on a "completely fireproof" building here. The building, first in the United States to be designated as "completely fireproof," is 135 years old.
Ounce of Prevention
