Smith Expected to Become New Dean of University
Dean George B. Smith of the School of Education is reported to be Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy's choice for promotion to dean of the University.
The action will not be official until the chancellor receives approval from the Board of Regents in
lopeka Thursday or Friday.
The position has been vacant since 1950 when Dean Ellis B. Stouffer retired from administrative duties upon reaching the retirement age of 65. Since then, he has continued as professor of mathematics and chairman of the planning committee.
The chancellor has been considering naming someone to the post for several months. The dean of the University would assist the chancellor in administrative personnel details. The position is equal to that of vice president, or dean of the faculty at many other schools.
Dean Smith had been in charge of the School of Education and director of the summer school sessions since 1941. The 45-year-old dean was born in Minneapolis, Minn., and received his bachelor and master of science degrees from the University of Minnesota. He received his Ph.D. from Columbia university.
Before coming to the University, he taught at the University of Buffalo, Moorehead State Teachers college, and the University of Iowa. He served four years in the army and is now a colonel in the Medical Service corps of the Army reserve.
It has been reported that Prof. Kenneth Anderson of the School of Education might be Dean Smith's replacement. Prof. Anderson has been director of the Bureau of Educational Research and Service.
Before coming to the University he taught at Iowa Teachers college. He came to the University as an assistant professor of education in 1948 and was promoted to associate professor in 1950. He was promoted to full professor this summer.
Prof. Anderson is also an alumnus of the University of Minnesota where he received his B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. degrees. The theories of teaching he proposed in his doctoral dissertation have been used widely throughout the country.
Adlai Fears Peace Delay
Enroute with Stevenson —(U.P.)— Adlai E. Stevenson expressed fear today that the Republican attitude toward the Korean war "may have delayed" chances for an armistice.
Speaking to a whistle skip abace of about 8,000 at Bristol, Mass., the Democratic presidential candidate did not elaborate. But he picture'd D. Eisenhower's or freed Korean peace trip as one of the things which gives the Russians more determination to stay in the battle.
Meanwhile, Gen. Eisenhower opened a one-day campaign in Pennsylvania by re-stating his intention to go to Korea personally if elected president in an effort to work out a plan whereby South Koreans will take over the "defense of their front lines."
Speaking to a crowd estimated by police at 1,200 persons inside the Pennsylvania railroad's 30th street station at Philadelphia, the GOP presidential nominee said he would not be "deterred" in his plan "by any criticism that a partisan wants to make."

Lewis Calls Half To Coal Strike
Washington — (U.P.) — John L. Lewis today told 350,000 United Mine Workers to end their nationwide soft coal strike "at once."
Union field officials predicted that full operations will be restored in the nation's soft coal fields by tomorrow morning.
The vanguard of the miners, who walked out of the pits a week ago in protest to the Wage Stabilization board's 40-cent cut in their negotiated $1.90 a day wage boost, will enter the mines this afternoon.
However, UMW District 5 President John P. Busarello, who heads 35,000 miners in the Pittsburgh area, said most of the large locals of his district would hold meetings before answering Lewis' call for "each member of our union to return to work at once."
"They want to know what it is all about," Busarello said. "But all the mines that are ready to work will be working tomorrow. We expect some of the smaller mines to be in production on the afternoon shift."

2,000 Happy KU Fans See SMU Trounced
A high-stepping University band led 300 Kansas fans in a 10-block parade Saturday morning in downtown Dallas, setting the stage for an impressive 26-0 Jayhawker victory over highly regarded Southern Methodist university.
The band, students and alumni arrived on a special train shortly before 10 a.m. Saturday. They were welcomed by the Dallas Alumni association.
The Jayhawk emblem was evident throughout Dallas as the alumni club passed out name cards bearing the nationally known emblem to the more than 2000 Jayhawkers who converged on the Texas city for the game.
Dallas police escorted the parade to the busiest intersection in the city where a 15 minute rally was held.
Encouraged by a 13-0 Jayhawk lead at halftime, the Kansas band performed a colorful and exacting military drill revue, and received a tremendous ovation from the partisan SMU crowd.
Following the game, the band formed in the center of the gridiron for a victory march. It led the Kansas fans through the south ramp of
the mammoth Cotton Bowl to the Jayhawker dressing room.
The trip to Dallas on the special train was one big party. Many Kansas City alumni already were gathered in the club car, and as other stops were made, the crowd grew larger. Present cheerleaders, aided by former cheerleaders led the revelers in cheers and Kansas songs far into the night.
After the game and a leisurely dinner in Dallas, the alumni, band and students boarded the train for the return trip to Lawrence and the party began again. All inhibitions were forgotten as songs and yells vibrated in the jammed club car. The familiar yell, "Are we going to beat K-State?" and the traditional answer resounded in the car.
The train arrived in Lawrence at 10 a.m. Sunday—nearly 36 hours after it departed—and deposited some tired but happy Jayhawks.
