11 Kickoff day for the 1951 Crusade for Feedom at the University will be Monday, Oct.8.
will be Monday, Oct. 8. Kenneth E. Beasley, instructor of political science and chairman of the University drive, announced that Ruth Hurwitz, education graduate, and Helen Maduros, education senior, have been named student chairmen.
Arrangements are being com-pleted for contacting every student on the campus during the five-day campaign, Mr. Beasley said.
campaign. Mr. Dee has been set for the University but contributions here will help the state reach its goal of $50,000 signatures on a freedom scroll and $50,000 in contributions.
Miss Maduros, who is president of the Jay Janes, and Miss Hurwitz will have charge of most of the contact work. They plan to start by sending speakers to all organized houses to acquaint students with the program.
Last year's campaign stressed the signing of a scroll which accompanied a freedom bell to Berlin, and 1200 signatures were obtained at K. U. Although no emphasis was placed on money, $150 was contributed.
The sending of balloons loaded with freedom pamphils over the Iron Curtain, will be continued.
The money collected in the 1951 crusade will go directly into two new phases of the free world's campaign against Communist suppression.
Second, several new radio stations capable of penetrating far beyond the Iron Curtain are to be built, with most of the transmitting to be under private operation. This will enable the senders to include names in their messages to the captive people of Europe, something our government could not do.
Those who have been working with the RFE (Radio Free Europe) stations already operating believe that many people can be reached by this method.
Abandons One Job For New Position
R. E. "Tommy" Tomlinson, 29, KU's new assistant food director, has abandoned a physical education career to fill his new position.
Tomlinson intended to become a physical education teacher when he entered Oklahoma A. and M. nearly four years ago.
He changed his mind about physical education when he met the dietitian at one of the dormitories. She helped him change his mind about several of his plans. Mr. Tomlinson switched his major and married the dietitian.
He was graduated from the Hotel and Restaurant school of Oklahoma A. and M. For the past year he has been with Sky Chef, Inc., Denver, Colo.
Mrs. Ruth Monroe, foods director of the Union, says that Tomlinson is the third man she has hired as an assistant. She does not agree that nutrition should be kept exclusively a woman's field.

Prof. Kenneth E. Rose, chairman of the mining and metallurgical engineering department, has been notified of his appointment as one of the American conferees to the World Metallurgical congress in Detroit Sunday, Oct. 14, through Friday, Oct. 19.
While in Detroit, Professor Rose will also attend the National Metal congress and the National Metal exposition.
Oxygen Tank Fatal Even When Discarded
Atlanta—(U.P.)—An oxygen cylinder, used by hospitals and firemen to save lives, can be deadly once it is discarded.
One such cylinder had been thrown into a pile of scrap metal at a junk yard here.
Just as Linnal Dallas, 50-year-old Negro, walked by the junk yard, the cylinder exploded.
The flying metal struck him on the head and killed him, then ripped through the wall of a building.
Graham Clark, vice president of the school, said that a Missouri family which remained anonymous gave about $200,000 for construction of a 120-foot tower, in which will be housed a 94-bell carillon.
Hollister, Mo. — (U.P.) — Work was under way today for construction of the nation's largest carillon, on Point Lookout at the famous School of the Ozarks.
Work Begins On Big Carillon
"This will be the largest carillon in the United States," he said, "and one of the biggest in the world. It will be operated from an electric keyboard."
Bids will be accepted until Oct. 23 for the carillon bells, Clark said.
He said that a chapel, to seat 600 persons, would be built in connection with the tower and would cost about $200,000 more. He estimated that the work would require about four years. The chapel will be 131 feet long by 75 feet wide.
The annual F.A.C.T.S. jubilee will be given Friday in the Kansas room of the Union. The purpose of the jubilee is to stimulate interest and acquaint new students with F.A.C.TS., a political organization.
Under favorable conditions, the bells will be heard for 15 miles across the Taney county Ozarks hills.
Entertainment and refreshments will be provided at the "stag or drag" affair. Dress will be informal. Tickets are 50 cents and will be on sale at the dance and at all independent organized houses, according to Donald Dirks, F.A.C.T.S. president.

Plans for a three-story addition to Green hall may soon be approved by state officials.
3-Story Addition Planned For Green
The structure will be 30 by 40 feet, designed and built of the same type of material as the original building. It will be used as a library.
Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, said he could give no approximate time as to when construction will start. The plans have to be approved by state architects. Steel allocations will cause delay.
The present library on the top floor of Green will be made into a reading room for the new library. It has been condemned and state engineers have forbidden any more books to be put on the library floor.
F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law, said that the school has 40,000 books and if ample space had been provided in the past the school would now have 75,000 volumes.
2-Year-Old Gets Family Auto; Rocks Up Impressive Score
Huntington Park, Calif.—(U.P.)-Traffic Officer John R. McManus is considering the possibility of driving lessons for his son, Jeffrey, age 2½.
The boy reached up and took the keys to his father's car off a living-room table, went outside and drove off. But his trip was not much of a success.
He hit a tree, jumped the curb, smashed a rubbish can, bounced off a truck and came to a halt lodged against another tree a few houses down the street.

THE WINNERS CARL'S FREE FOOTBALL 'PICK-EM' CONTEST
Week of Sept. 29th
New Two-Way Trade Policy Designed To Hurt Communists
The fall membership drive was the main topic of discussion at the first Independent Students association council meeting. Monday in the Pine room of the Union.
1st—JOANNE BARR
2nd—JOHN E. WILKENSON
3rd—F. D. GREENFIELD
Washington—(U.P.)-The United States is steadily chopping down its trade with Eastern Europe and quietly hoping that Western Europe trade with Iron Curtain countries will hold steady or even increase a bit.
The drive is being carried on mainly through the organized halls. Each hall has a representative who is selling memberships. A trophy is given to the hall with 100 per cent membership. Monchoria hall has held this trophy for two years.
Any independent student who does not live in an organized hall may join the I.S.A. by contacting Ann Eylar at Miller hall, Louis Clum at Sterling hall or Ronald Sammons at Battenfell hall.

Other officers are Shirley Tinsley, vice-president; Jo Anna March, secretary, and Robert Zurbuchen, treasurer.
New members will be admitted at the close of the semester. They must appear in three plays to be eligible, Richard Sheldon, former president, said.
The answer given Monday by administration officials for this two-way policy was:
1. The United States can do without Red products. Lack of American manufactured items hurts the Reds, economically and politically.
This country is on the vege of making another big move to hurt the Communists by starting wholesale discrimination against Czech products shipped to American ports.
2. Western Europe traditionally has traded freely with Eastern Europe and requires coal, timber, coarse grains, potash and manganese imports to keep a stable economy. The non-Communist nations have cut off almost all trade with the East in strategic products and materials although the Reds are still shipping some strategic goods to the West. These goods help the West build its defenses.
making another big move to hurt the Communists by starting wholesale discrimination against Czech products shipped to American ports. President Truman shortly will sign a proclamation that will scrap an agreement granting tariff concessions to the Czechs. Higher rates will virtually dry up Czech trade with this country as another weapon to force the Communists to free American newsman William N. Oats, sentenced to 10 years in jail for alleged spying.
