KU Observatory Opens Tonight
The University observatory, atop Lindley hall, will hold open house tonight from 7 to 9:30 p.m., if the sky is clear, according to Dr. N. W. Storer, associate professor of astronomy.
The new 27-inch reflector telescope will not be on display to the public at this open house, Dr. Storer said. He said the big telescope will be displayed later in the year.
Students and the general public are invited to visit the observatory in 509 Lindley. The observatory's 6-inch refractor telescope will be used to view the moon. Dr. Storer said that at later open houses this year Jupiter and Venus will be viewed.
The nearly completed 27-inch telescope will not be used for direct viewing, but will be used almost entirely for photographic purposes. Photographically, it is possible to see many more things than with the eve. Dr. Storer said.
Dr. Storer he plans to hold open house for the public once a month, except in the middle of the winter.

The meeting is being held to discuss problems in the department, said Henry Shenk, chairman.
Friday, Sept. 26, 1952
Gov. Stevenson made the announcement in reply to questions from reporters who crowded around him at Capital airport as he boarded a plane to leave on a two-day swing through Indiana and Kentucky.
He said there were "eight or nine" officials who received money from the fund and that he had contacted all of them last night to discuss making the fund public.
He said he had also talked with most of the donors but still had not discussed the subject with all of them.
Gov. Stevenson said there were so many donors to the fund that he was having difficulty reaching all of them.
He was asked whether he would list the honors and beneficiaries in a speech or in a statement.
He said he would issue a statement although he might later refer to the matter in a speech. Wilson Wyatt, his personal campaign manager had indicated earlier that the list was forthcoming.
Meanwhile, two more Illinois state officials acknowledged that they received cash Christmas gifts from Stevenson. They are J. Edward Day, state director of insurance, and Fred K. Hoehler, director of welfare.
Day confirmed that he had received gifts from the fund raised by Stevenson to supplement the salaries of some of his top state employees. But he declined further comment.
"In view of the fact the Governor has said he will make a further statement on the subject I have no further comment to make now," Day said.
Hoehler, too, refused to say how much he got, but he pointed out that Stevenson had promised an accounting. Hoehler, who has held his $10,000 a year job since 1949, said he received the gifts in 1950 and 1951.

KU to Receive Four Jet Engines
The University will receive four jet engines for study in the aero-nautical engineering department, Ammon Andes, acting chairman, said today.
The engines are obsolete Navy equipment and are being given to the University. Prof. Andes said KU will be one of the few engineering schools in the country to have operative and actual jet engines for students to work with.
Two of the engines are pulse jets, similar to the type used on the German V-1 missiles which blasted England. The other two are J-31 types and come from early Navy jet fighter planes. One of each type engine will be used for classroom demonstration.
The other two will be operated and tested at the Lawrence airport. A special test stand will be built to operate these engines, Prof. Andes said.
The J-31 jets were secured for the University by Dean T. DeWitt Carr, dean of the engineering school. E. W. Rovischen, manager of the western region of the Institute of Aeronautical Sciences in California, secured the two pulse jets.
James K. Hitt, registrar, said today that men who want their enrollment verified to their Selective Service board may do so at the registrar's office.
Registrar to Report To Draft Boards
Mr.Hitt's office will send the information to the students' local boards.
Murphy to Lead Cornerstone Event
Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy will officiate at the informal cornerstone laying ceremony of the new Science building at 3 p.m. today.
The ceremony will be at the north entrance of the building, which is on the south slope of the campus. No speeches will be made, Chancellor Murphy said.

E. C. Buehler, director of forensics, said "this will be a very promising year." He pointed out that the 30-man debate team is one of the largest in many years.
Each debater gave a 5-minute extemporaneous talk on some issue of this year's intercollegiate debate question: "Resolved, that the Congress of the United States should enact a compulsory fair employment practices law."
The debate squad is scheduled to compete with the State University of Iowa, Kansas State Teachers college at Pittsburg, Southwestern college, McPherson college, and Kansas State college.
AchesonAccusesEisenhower Of Misrepresenting Facts
Washington—(U.P.)—Secretary of State Dean Acheson today directly accused Dwight D. Eisenhower of "torturing the facts" of a speech made by Mr. Acheson in January, 1950.
Attacking the Republican presidential nominee by name, Mr. Acheson said Gen. Eisenhower's foreign policy speech in Cincinnati Monday night "represents me as saying something I did not say."
Mr. Acheson added that Gen Eisenhower's speech "omits a significant and relevant part of what I did say. The general could have discovered this by reading my speech."
Mr. Acheson did not include Korea in this perimeter but said any nation attacked would first have to defend itself and then rely on the free world acting under the United Nations charter.
In his Press club speech, Mr. Acheson said that the American defense perimeter in the Pacific "runs along the Aleutians to Japan and then goes to the Ryukyus . . . and from the Ryukyus to the Philippine islands."
Mr. Acheson said that the "defensive perimeter as I described it was a line developed by our own military authorities at that time."
General Begins Second Drive For Dixie Votes
"Certainly as chief of staff of the Army his opinion was quite to the contrary and wholly in accordance with the statement I made."
Gen. Eisenhower in his address said that "in January of 1950 our secretary of state declared that America's so-called 'defensive perimeter' excluded areas on the Asiatic mainland such as Korea." The Republican nominee then quoted parts of Mr. Acheson's statement that this government could not guarantee other areas against military attack.
"I cannot believe General Eisen-hower now means to imply that Korea should have been included by me within the defensive perimeter and that it should have been manned by American troops," Mr. Acheson said.
Aboard Eisenhower Special—(U.P.)
-A paiaima-clad Dwight D. Eisenhower, colorfully supported by "my Mamie" in a pink drive, began his second drive for southern votes today with an early morning whistle stop at Salisbury, N. C.
The presidential candidate wooed voters of North Carolina and Virginia after climaxing yesterday's drive through Maryland by demanding at Baltimore an end to "disorder and duplication and waste" in military spending.
The Salisbury stop, at 4:45 am CST, was unscheduled. It caught the Eisenhower not yet dressed for the day. But that didn't stop them from appearing on the rear platform to greet 100 earlier risers gathered to cheer the general.
He stepped onto the back platform of the train in pajamas and black and red checked bathrobe and started signing autographs.
There the candidate was greeted by about 2,000 persons at the station and other thousands lining the streets.
A moment later Mrs. Eisenhower joined him, and someone in the crowd shouted, "Hi ya, Mamie You-all look good to us even in the morning."
The party traveled by automobile to Memorial stadium. More than 25,000 persons were in and around the stadium, which seats about 18,000.
The general told the stadium crowd he had been warned before going South that he would be wasting his time "because the whole country is mortgaged to one political group." The crowd roared, "no."
He said the Truman administration has dragged down U. S. prestige aboard and produced "seandals of which we are ashamed."
Gen. Eisenhower also charged the administration with creating inflation. He said it particularly hurts farmers because "the things they have to buy go up and up."
The general also denounced "subversion and disloyalty in government and increasing centralization of power in Washington."
The general also said that "we need not have gotten into the (Korean) war if we had been far-sighted."
