Two Changes In Parking Rules By Committee
Donald K. Alderson, chairman of the University Parking committee, requests that students with cars note the two changes in parking regulations this fall.
The 30 minute parking limit on Jayhawk drive now goes into effect at 8 a.m., instead of 7:30. This period ends at 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, and at noon on Saturday. At other times parking spaces marked in blue are free.
Fines and parking permit fees must be paid at the University Business office in Strong hall. Formerly they were paid at the Traffic office.
Other parking regulations remain unchanged:
Applications for parking permits are to be brought or mailed to the Parking committee office, 200 Fowler shops. Permits are valid only in the zone designated on the permit. To be valid the plate must be attached to the rear state license plate.
Park within 12 inches of curbing. Park within marked areas where indicated in zones or on streets. Park on the right side of the street with the exception of Zone T. No double parking. In parking zones where diagonal or 90 degree parking is used, drive the car forward into the stall.
Parking permits are required to park in restricted zones between 8 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, and between 8 a.m. and noon Saturday.
Violators of the parking and traffic regulations are subject to fines and other penalties enforced by the University. For the first ticket the student will receive a warning. For the second he will be fined $1, and for each succeeding ticket, $2. Students with unpaid fines will not be permitted to re-enroll, graduate, or transfer.
Students responsible for automobiles shall be liable for any tickets given that automobile while in the possession of another person.
The police are authorized to remove any vehicle from the street if it is allowed to stand in violation of the ordinance, and to store it. Costs of such storage will be paid by the owner in addition to other penalties which may be assessed under the ordinance.
Sunflower Plant To Be Reopened
Washington, Sept. 25—(U.P.) The Sunflower ordnance works at Lawrence, Kan., will be "partially reopened" an army spokesman said today.
There was no indication how many workers will be needed at the plant. The plant, part of the Army reserve, had been inactive since World War II when it produced smokeless powder and nitroglycerine.
Hoffman Resigns As ECA Chief
Washington, Sept. 25 — (U.P.) President Truman was expected to announce today the resignation of Paul G. Hoffman as the $20,000-a year chief of the Economic Cooperation administration.
Hoffman has refused to confirm reports that he has resigned, but informed sources said he will leave the foreign aid post to head the $200,000,000 Ford foundation. He is expected to be succeeded by William C. Foster, now deputy administrator.
White House sources said a full statement "covering the situation" would be issued later today.
Hoffman, 58, has headed the agency since it was created in April, 1948. A past president of Studebaker Corp., he has been affiliated with such organizations as the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, United Airlines and the Committee for Economic Development.
The Ford foundation, a research, educational, scientific and philanthropic organization, was founded in 1936 by Edsel Ford, son of the founder of the Ford Motor Co.
ISA Ward Party In Union Tonight
Harry James To Appear At All School Dance
An I.S.A. all-ward party for the men in private homes and unorganized houses will be held at 7:30 p.m. today in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union.
After gaining a national reputation with Goodman, he started his own band with almost immediate success, being hailed as the greatest jazz trumpet player in America for six years in succession. Now, except for a few recordings he makes with the Esquire All Stars,
Organizational meetings for the various wards will begin after Sunday, Oct. 1. Plans for dances and parties will then be outlined.
Harry James and his orchestra will appear in Hoch auditorium Friday, Oct. 13. The James aggregation will be the first name band to play for an all school dance at the University in several years.
Richard Krimminger, president of the Independent Students association, said this meeting is planned to let the new students get acquainted with other men in the various wards.
Harry James, recently classed among the top five trumpet players in America, started playing trumpet when he was twelve years old. His real start, however, came around 1934 when he was featured with Benny Goodman's orchestra.
Margaret Granger, president of Student Union Activities, the sponsoring organization for the dance, believes Duke Ellington's band, which appeared here in 1942, was the last name band to play for an all school affair.
a jazz group made up of well known American instrumentalists, James plays mostly commercial or dance music.
For those who don't care to dance, separate tickets will be available for seats in the first balcony of Hoch. James will play sweet dance music primarily, but has promised to play a few "hot ones" that usually reduce dancing to a minimum.
Tickets will be on sale Thursday in the Student Union Activities office in the Union building. Advanced prices, tax included, will be $2.00 for dancing and $1.25 for balcony seats. Gate tickets will be $2.25.
Draft Will Take Doctors In December
James' featured vocalist and instrumentalists for the engagement here have not been announced.
Washington, Sept. 25—(U.P.) The armed forces expect to begin drafting doctors and dentists in December, the director of the defense department office of medical services said today.
Dr. Richard L. Meiling said the first call will be for about 2,000 doctors and 500 dentists, although those figures may be scaled down if enough volunteers enlist between now and December.
This call, he said, would exhaust the first priority group—those doctors who trained during World War II at their own or government expense but saw no military service.
Total Eclipse Is For Tonight
Tonight may be your last chance for a year and a half to observe a total eclipse of the moon, so you had better look out your window sometime between 8:31 and 10:40 p.m. tonight. The eclipse will be total at 9:54 p.m. The entire eclipse takes over three hours from beginning to end because the earth's shadow is three times the diameter of the moon.
After that, the services will dip into other reservoirs to get the total of 8,000 doctors and 3,500 dentists needed by June 30, 1951, to service the projected 3,000,000-man military establishment.
President Truman is expected to issue soon a proclamation calling for the registration of doctors and dentists. Assuming that the registration would take place in mid-October, the drafting could begin in December and the first quota would be called in between then and the end of February.
Eclipses of the moon are irregular, says N. W. Storer, associate professor of astronomy. "They may occur every six months for five or six times," he commented, "then stop for $1\%$ years, then begin the whole cycle again."
Only one bidder has been found to date for moving of the 514 foot radio tower of KIMV-FM, Hutchinson, to the University of Kansas campus. The bid was submitted by the Costello company of Topeka and was for $31,812.
Bid Too High On FM Tower
The radio tower and all of the station's equipment was given to K.U. recently by owner J.P.Harris, publisher of the Hutchinson News-Herald.
Bids were opened Wednesday noon in the office of Ed Burge, state business manager. The Costello bid was considered too high by state officials, who are considering reopening the bids on a different basis in an attempt to cut transportation costs.
F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law, is in St. Lukes hospital in Kansas City, Mo., undergoing a routine checkup. Dean Moreau had a major operation this summer but has been back on the job since the beginning of school.

Army Captures Seoul Stronghold
Tokyo, Tuesday, Sept. 26—U.P. Americans have seized heavily fortified South mountain inside Seoul, assuring the city's early capture.
American marines, Seventh division infantrymen and South Koreans virtually had isolated the former republican capital today. They soon would be in a position to turn for a linkup with other hard-driving forces coming up from the south only 40 miles away.
Seventh division forces, which had jumped off across the Han river at 6:30 a.m. in response to a call from the marines, took South mountain Monday afternoon and linked up with the First marines near the heart of the city.
It was a return visit for the 32nd infantry regiment of the Seventh. They had first occupied Seoul after V-J day.
The South Korean Seventh regiment, including many men who call Seoul their home town, crossed the river behind the Seventh division at 3 p.m. and swung northeast to cut the main escape road to Chunchon, five miles out of Seoul. Resistance was light, coming mostly from mortars, machine guns and a couple of self-propelled guns.
Cracking of resistance at Seoul— important though it is—still is not
On the west, marines broke through the Communists' main line resistance Monday afternoon after a 2-day battle and by nightfall were on hill looking across to the Parliament building about 1,500 yards away.
the chief objective of Gen. Douglas MacArthur's Korean offensive. After the link is forged with the American and Korean forces exploding northward from the old Pusan beachhead, the main job will be to try to liquidate the 100,000-man Communist army before it can escape back across the 38th parallel.
"Victory is now in sight. It will mean a free and untrammeled society for all Koreans with the dignity of the individual fully restored."
Lt. Gen. Walton H. Walker, whose job it was to hold the Communists until the Inchon-Seoul offensive could be started, issued a victory statement from his Eighth Army headquarters today. He said:
A navy spokesman reported that the commanding general of the 5th North Korean division is a prisoner. He was unable to say, however, where or by whom the prisoner was taken, or to identify him by name. The army spokesman had no information on the capture.
The battleship Missouri and the heavy cruisers Toledo and Rochester—from off Inchon—are still laying down heavy gunfire on both sides of the Han river to support United Nations ground operations, the navy spokesman said.
An air forces spokesman said that B-29 Superfortresses are now assigned to what might best be called "armed reconnaissance" on roads leading northward from Seoul.
