WEATHER
Paul Endacott, president of the Phillips Petroleum company, Barrlesville, Oka., will be the speaker for the annual engineering banquet Tuesday evening, Nov. 13.
The banquet in the Kansas room of the Union is sponsored by the engineering council to honor the senior class in the School of Engineering and Architecture.
It will be a homecoming for Endacott, a member of the KU class of 1923. His play on the Jayhawk basketball team that year won him All-American honors at the guard position. As an honor student in civil engineering and leader in many other activities he established a recitation program. This being named Honor Man for 1923, the KU man so honored, and in a sense the award was created to recognize Endacott's achievements.
Dr. Holmes said it was not so important that students know so many facts because facts are constantly changing in the modern world. He said it was more important that students know how and where to find facts.
"A liberal education should be a background for every student no matter what type of specialized work he plans to develop later," Dr. Roger Holmes, professor of philosophy at Mount Holyoke college, said Monday night.
Endacott is a former president of the KU Alumni association and served a five-year term on its board of directors.
"Employers are looking for graduates with a broad educational background," he said.
Oil Executive To Speak Here
William Gartung, engineering senior, will be toastmaster for the banquet.
He stressed there should be more education for leadership. It is not so vital for more students to enter college, but it is vital that those already attending college receive a better education, he said.
Urges 'Arts' For Everyone
"Whether you receive an education depends entirely on you, the student," he said.
Dr. Holmes presented a lecture on "What is a Liberal Education?" in Strong auditorium.

ISA Cleans Up Flood Damage
Sixty men and women from University scholarship and resident halls worked in spite of the cold in North Lawrence Nov. 3.
The work was sponsored by the all campus clean-up committee which was organized by the Independent Students Association.
The most extensive work was done at 417 North Ninth street where the students cleaned a barn belonging to Virgil Ball.
"These kids have done a wonderful job," Mr. Ball said. "I was unable to do the work myself because I've been sick since the flood. I just don't know what I would have done without them."
Lewis Clum, publicity director for the ISA, said that the six houses where they worked were chosen because the reconstruction was too extensive for the owners to manage alone.
"We plan to go back in groups of five or six when the weather is nice and finish the work." Clum said.

Child's Hostility Subject Of Talk
"Facing and reducing hostility in children is our greatest problem," said Ruth McNeilly, head teacher at the University of Kansas Nursery school, in her speech to the Psychology club Nov.1.
A child's hostility comes out in aggressiveness, said Miss McNeilly, but the forms—hitting, biting, pulling hair, crying, yelling—are fairly simple. Most aggressiveness is normal and typical, "only part of growing up." Parents who are unaware of the normally reprimand their children wrongly are "cause many problems within the family," she said.
