Settlement Of Steel Strike Expected Today
Mr. Truman has said he would invoke the Taft-Hartley law if a national crises developed. With cold weather settling over the nation and fuel stocks dwindling rapidly, many state and local officials believed the emergency had already enveloped the country.

The steel strike was on the road to complete settlement today and government officials were expected to decide by Wednesday whether President Truman should take action to end the coal walkout.
Republic Steel Corporation and Jones and Laughlin Steel Corporation, third and fourth largest in the industry, were reported almost ready to settle on the basis of the J.J. Steel Workers' contract with Rahabem Steel. A number of smaller firms joined the settlement parade.
President John L. Lewis of the striking United Mine Workers met in Chicago with his 200-man policy committee but it appeared that he had failed in his attempt to drive a wedge between Illinois-Indiana mine owners and the rest of the industry.
reeder mediator Cyrus Ching met in Washington with President Joseph E. Moody of the Southern Coal, Producers association.
Smaller steel firms which settled over the weekend were Lukens Steel with 3,000 workers, Northwestern Steel and Wire with 150 workers. Pittsburgh Bridge and Iron with 150 workers. Each plant reopened today.
Two other courses also were open to the president. He could make a personal appeal to the U.M.W. to suspend the strike, or he could appoint a fact-finding board similar to which I examined the steel strike.
Washington observers believed that Ching would meet with Lewis Wednesday and decide by that night whether to ask President Truman to take action to end the soft coal strike.
The Republic and Jones and Laughlin settlements would send 83,000 strikers back to work.
Pittsburgh Steel, employing 8,000 scheduled a meeting with the C.I.O. steel workers early this week and Youngstown Sheet and Tube company officials were scheduled to meet with representatives of their 20,000 workers tomorrow.
The huge U.S. Steel corporation was reported as ready to resume talks with the union, possibly today or Tuesday.

Members of the all-victorious 1899 football team will return Friday, Nov. 18, to celebrate the golden anniversary of the team which climaxed with a Western conference championship the first 10 years of Javhawker football.
A banquet is planned in honor of the eight surviving members of the '99 team on Friday evening, Nov. 18. W. J. Baumgartner, professor emeritus of zoology, will serve as toastmaster at the event. The reunion was his idea. Professor Baum-gartner was captain of the "scrub" team which gave the all-victorious eleven the practice which enabled it to win.
Members of the team who are expected to attend the reunion are: Hubert Avery, Basin, Wyo., civil engineer; William B. Hess, Pratt, Kan.; lawyer; Julian Jenkinson, Belleville Kan.; druggist; George C. Lucas, New York City, magazine publisher; Ben Owen, former football coach; University of Oklahoma Wyn W. Gavin, Tonasket, Wash. poultry man; Frank D. D.

A bear and a wolf begin and end the roll call in Communications in Society, a new journalism course offered this year.
Miss Frances G. Grusead, assistant professor of journalism, said. It is the first time that animal names have begun and ended the list of students in any of her classes.
Saturday morning will find the returning Jayhawkers free to move about the campus as they choose, and Saturday afternoon they will attend the University of Kansas-University of Missouri football game as guests of the Athletic association.
Yost later coached at the University of Michigan and won fame as the "great winner" of the infant American game.
California, New York, Wyoming Washington, and Oklahoma are now home states of some of these Jayhawkers. Two are still residents of Kansas.
The surviving members of the '99 aggregation will recall the days of Fielding H. "Hurry Up" Yost who guided K.U. football teams into the enviable position which they held in the Missouri valley at the turn of the century.
During those early days of football, the rules of the game were not standardized, and a football team could easily have doubled as $ r $

Teacher's Roll Call Sounds Like Zoo
ooing or wrestling team. Sheer power characterized offensive tactics with the "flying wedge" as the favorite play. Scores were low and 0 to 0 results were the rule rather than the exception.
Without the forward pass as an offensive weapon, physical condition and the "will to win" often determined the outcome of a game. There was no such thing as a moral victory.
A legend existed during this era of Jayhawk football which contended that if a Kansas team defeated Nebraska, it was sure to win over Missouri. The returning members of the '99 chapter of Kansas gridiron history are expected to revive some of that ancient spirit on the eve of the clash with Missouri.

Among those viewing the carillon were representatives of the All Student council, Jay Janes, Red Peppers, Ku Ku's, and Froshawks.
AIEE Given Job Pointers
Good grades allow you to get your foot in the door—but that it's all. After that your success in industry deserves your ability, personality, and initiative.
That is what Glen Paden, '42, told the student chapter of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, Thursday. Mr. Paden is division manager of the Kansas Power and Light company in Topeka.
"Teach the fellow under you your job. He'll push you on up," he said. If you become indefensible to a position, you'll be kept there," he said.
Mr. Faden advised the engineers that it is definitely worth while to get into any practical work concerned with electrial problems.
"You fellows who keep your noses in text books quite often have very little understanding of the purely practical side of electrical engineering," he said.
Dresden Speaks To Chemistry Club
If progress is to be made in scientific research in universities, more technical and expensive equipment will be necessary, Max Dresden, associate professor of physics, told the Chemistry club Thursday.
It will be up to state or federal government to provide funds required for this expansion, he said.
Applications to become student affiliate members of the American Chemical society were taken. Persons who wish to apply may do so at the next meeting to be held at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 17 in Bailey Chemical laboratory. Application may be made before that time in 214 Bailey chemical laboratory.

Russian Named Defense Head Of Poland

London, Nov. 7 — (U.P.) Marshal Konstantin K. Rokosovsky of Russia has been appointed defense minister of Poland, the Polish embassy here announced today.
The new tack in strategy behind the 'iron curtain' touched off startled reaction. The British Foreign office denounced it as new evidence that Moscow was in complete control of Poland.
"The appointment may be regarded as the latest demonstration of the total subservience of the Communist regime in Poland to the Soviet union," a foreign office spokesman said.
Other commentators voiced surprise at the spectacle of a national of one country, and especially Russia, being named head of the army of another state, particularly a neighboring one.
The Polish announcement of Rokosovsky's new post followed word from Moscow radio that Russia had agreed to lend the ranking milita leader of the second World War Poland.
The broadcast said Rokosovsky whose westward sweep in the latter phase of the war was checked for some weeks at the suburbs of Warsaw while Polish patriots inside the city were crushed by the Nazis, wailed to Poland at the request or President Boleslaw Beirut, a Moscow trained Communist.
The British Foreign office spokesman said in commenting on the situation:
"It may be recalled that Rokosovsky was in command on the Warsaw front in the summer of 1944 at the time of the heroic uprising of the Polish underground. At that time the British and Americans were refused permission by Russian authorities to use Soviet bases for dropping supplies to the Warsaw garrison in their struggle against the Fascist occupation forces."
Anti-Communist officials have claimed that Rokosovsky halted his march in Praga, Warsaw suburb on the east bank of the Vistula, on direct orders from the Kremlin.
The purpose, according to those officials, was to give the Russians the honor of liberating Warsaw without the aid of local patriots, and to permit the Nazi liquidation of the home front. In this way, they spent the war years in Moscow could take over the direction of the country.
The former Polish defense ter, Marshal Michael Rola Zymerski was not believed to have had the full confidence of the Communist regime. Reliable reports in Warsaw said a Communist vice minister wielded the power over the army.
