Woodring Backs Allen Fieldhouse
Harry Woodring, governor of Kansas from 1931 to 1933, has suggested that the new Kansas University fieldhouse be named after Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, basketball coach. Construction on the fieldhouse is scheduled to be resumed next October.
Raymond Nichols, executive secretary to the chancellor, reported that it is customary for the board of regents to name University buildings, but the legislature may pass a bill over the board's head to name buildings. Mr. Nichols also pointed out that, by custom, University buildings are not named after living persons.
Mr. Woodring has suggested that the Kansas Legislature set aside tradition and pass a resolution requesting the State Board of Regents to name the fieldhouse in Dr. Allen's honor.
Three buildings on the campus Watson library, Corhin hall, and Hoch auditorium, were named for living. In the case of Hoch auditorium, the legislature passed a bill to name it after E. W. Hoch, former governor of the state.
Mr. Woodring said the naming of the new fieldhouse in honor of Dr. Allen "would meet the wishes of thousands of Kansans." In 36 years as head coach at KU Dr. Allen has guided the Jayhawks to 23 conference titles and one national championship.

Czechs Use Airliner To Escape from Reds
Frankfurt, Germany—(U.P.)—A daring Czech pilot defying Communist radar screens and MIG fighter patrols flew an airliner with 29 persons aboard to freedom here last night.
The slow-moving C-47 of the Czechoslovak National airlines apparently was not intercepted by any U.S. patrols either as it flew over 160 miles of the American zone of Germany to the Rhine-Main airport
U. S. Air Force authorities sait they believed the navigator and some of the passengers were also in on the escape plot. Apparently it had been planned long beforehand, and the pilot only waited for favorable conditions to carry it out.
Several women were said to be among the 25 passengers.
A U.S. High Commission source in Bonn said there were no prominent Czechs aboard the twin-engine plane. He added that the Czech military mission in Berlin asked permission to go to Frankfurt to inspect the plane and talk with the passengers.
swing almost due west, and headed for the Iron Curtain frontier between Czechoslovakia and West Germany.
The airliner was on a regularly scheduled flight within Communist Czechoslovakia when the pilot apparently turned almost 135 degrees,
Many of the passengers seemed to know nothing about the escape plot until the plane was already across the curtain.
U. S. officials said at least five of the 25 passengers and four crew members asked for asylum immediately. All were taken into custody by the U.S. Air Force at the airport.
