AAUP Urges Staff Handbook
An orientation program for new faculty members for the fall of 1949 and a faculty handbook were recommended Monday by the University of Kansas chapter of the American Association of University professors.
James O. Maloney, professor of chemical engineering, told the faculty members meeting in the Union that "when new people come to the University they should know what the services are. We have such a program for the students, so why should we not do the same for the new staff members?"
W. D. Paden, associate professor of English and secretary-treasurer of the local A.A.U.P. felt that such an orientation program should be compulsory for all new faculty members.
"If it were not compulsory," he said, "the persons who would not attend would be the very ones who needed it the most.
Also recommended was the preparation and printing of a University faculty handbook to explain teaching services, such as the guidance bureau, bureau of visual instructions, bibliography of teaching aids, etc.
The two proposals will be submitted to University administrators.
Six Students Have German Measles
Six students are quarantined with German measles, hospital authorities announced today.
They are Winwood Kline, engineering sophomore; Jacqueline Walker, College sophomore; Joyce Herschell, education freshman; Vincent Coffin, engineering freshman; Nancy Sewell and Robert Talbert, both College freshmen.
This is not an epidemic, Dr. Ralph L. Canuteson, director of the health service said. Students may watch for such symptoms as accompany a cold and a swelling or soreness of glands near the ears. This variety of measles lasts about three days, Dr. Canuteson said.
Faculty Members Happy About Building Prospects
By KEITH LESLIE
A feeling of gratitude and exhuberance is general among the faculty and administration since the announcement of the $2,962,000 buildings appropriations by the 1949 Kansas legislature.
Raymond Nichols, executive secs saying, "The completion of a science University the only appreciable increase of classroom facilities since the completion of Frank Strong hall in 1923. We hope that the addition of classroom facilities will eliminate classes from such awkward hours as noon and 4 p.m."
Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, summed up the opinions by saying, "The completion of a science and journalism building will give the University the only appreciable*
Burton W. Marvin, dean of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information said. "We in the journalism school are naturally pleased that the legislature voted the supplementary $150,000 appropriation for the remodeling of Fowler shops. This means that we shall be able to carry through plans for improved and broadened journalism programs."
The only disappointment was voiced by D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, who commented, "I feel a little like Moses, who was taken to the top of a mountain and allowed to look upon the promised land, but was not allowed to enter therein. I had hoped that my 26 years as head of the School of Fine Arts would be climaxed by witnessing the construction of a fine building for our school. Long live the field house and higher education!"
Dr. J. D. Stranathan, professor of physics, feels the appropriation will greatly benefit the advancement of science at K.U.
"Of course, everyone connected with the science departments are very happy. We've been bulging at the seams for some time, and the appropriations will benefit both teaching and research conditions. It will mean that we will be able to accept many projects that we formerly had in mind down because of space. We are already considering research plans which will use those appropriations to their best advantage."
Dr. R. Q. Brewster, professor of chemistry, agrees. "The action of the legislature in making appropriations will make it possible for the University to improve its facilities and compete favorably with other first-rate institutions throughout the country," he said.

mathematics declared, "We feel very fortunate indeed. The sciences are very much in need of such a building and can work much better if they are close together."
Donald F. Powell, director of intramurals, expressed sympathy that provisions were not made for the much needed fine arts building, but added, "The legislature has done very well for the University this year. It is a forward step in the right direction. We hope that when the field house is it is for use all the students and not just the small fraction represented by those who participate in varsity athletics."
While he feels the legislature has done a wonderful job, Henry Shenk, associate professor of physical education said. "We in the athletics department hope that the next legislature will provide appropriations for more complete facilities for physical education and intramural."
