Star Gazers Get No Help From KU
Astronomers attempting to compute the orbit of a ne weediestial body believed to be the 12 moon of the planet Jupitar will receive little help from the observatory located at the University, Astronomy Professor N. W. Storer said today.
Professor Storer said that only the first five were visible with the K.U. refracting telescope. A "very large" scope was needed to see the fifth, he added.
"Only photographs made from reflecting telescopes would show number six through eleven moons. And number twelve, if it has been found," the astronomer said.
Nine members of the bureau of government research will serve as consultants at the Kansas Library association's conference in Hutchinson Wednesday and Thursday.

WOODY HERMAN
Freedom Drive Will Continue Until Friday
Kenneth Beasley, instructor of political science and chairman of the University crusade, said booths have been set up in the rotunda of Strong hall and in the Union so that independent students may contribute and sign the freedom scroll.
The 1951 Crusade for Freedom is underway and students have an opportunity to participate until Friday, final day of the drive.
Members of the Forensic league contacted all campus houses to acquaint students with the program and to urge them to take part.
Handled by the Red Peppers, the booths will be available Monday, Tuesday, and, if necessary, Friday, he said.
A good response was indicated for the first day, Mr. Beasley said. The campaign's progress will be reported later in the week, he added.
The Jay Janes, responsible for the organization of the University drive this year, plan to contact all departments of the faculty this week.

Tickets to the dance Friday night
- Tickets to the dance Friday night in Hoch auditorium may be bought at the information booth, the S.U.A. office in the Union and through the ticket agent in each organized house.
Rules for women in organized houses who plan to attend the dance and who wish to have their closing hours extended have been announced.
They are to inform the house-mother that they plan to attend the dance. At the dance one hand will be ink stamped and the women are to show their stamp to the house-mother.
If students are not too familiar with music by Woody Herman and the Herd, they will find his records featured this week at downtown record shops.
One of the unusual features of the James dance was barefoot dancing. The floor was too slick to dance on with shoes.
Last year more than 1500 listened to hot Harry James in Hoch either while dancing or as spectators. His was the first big name band to appear on the campus in several years, but, the S.U.A. hopes, only one of many to come.
The Woody Herman band is the same size as the James band but includes more feature singers.
Politics Hold Library Lead
The political science department holds the edge for the greatest number of recently-purchased new books in Watson library this month.
About 20 per cent of the total number of new books purchased during September dealt with Communism, Russia, and Korea.
Some of the more outstanding ones were: "The Communist Problem in America," by Edward E. Palmer; "China and the Soviet Union," by Aitchen K. Wu; "Ten Great Economists from Marx to Yennessy," by Joseph Schumper; "The French Family U.S.R.F." by Dolf Schlesinger and "The Koreans and Their Culture," by Cornelius Osgood.
Miss Helen A. Titsworth, head of the catalog department, said that 1,094 volumes were recorded in the department and sent through the stacks during September. Of that number, 899 were new volumes and 195 were copies or continuations of book already in the library.
"September is a slower month." Miss Titsworth said, "because we haven't gotten into the swing of things yet."
The Inter-Dorm council for women's halls voted to donate the money usually spent for homecoming decorations to flood relief at a meeting Monday.
Inter-Dorm Votes Flood Relief Aid
The action was taken after the Inter-Fraternity council and Panhellenic council decided to donate their decoration money and time to the cause.
Rosemary Scheuerman, president, said "We cannot go over and work as the fraternities did, but possibly we can help this way."
The money will be used with the help of the Red Cross.
