Bureau Adds 7 New Courses
Seven new courses have been added to the curriculum of nearly 130 courses offered by the correspondence study bureau of the University, Miss Ruth Kenney, director, said today.
The courses, divided into college credit and high school credit courses, and vocational groups, are offered to any non-resident who wishes to obtain certain credits but is unable to attend the University.
College credit can be earned for these subjects: Intermediate Algebra, two hours; Municipal Government, three hours; American Colloquies and the Revolution, two hours.
Three years of high school Latin courses are listed and one course in general mathematics is available.
Under the vocational, or non-
needtit group, courses in Philosophy
for Everyman and Store Salesma-
sialis can be taken.
In conjunction with the Department of Immigration and Naturalization, the University offers a course in citizenship which is planned to assist aliens in preparing for naturalization examinations. Miss Kenney explained.
There are about 6,400 students actively enrolled in the correspondence school at the present time. Miss Kenney said.
These courses are available not only to Kansas residents but to non-Kansans as well.
News Human Problem, Marvin
Adequate preparation in public relations as well as in handling news are needed by students entering newspaper work, Burton W. Marvin, dean of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information, told Lawrence Rotarians, Wednesday.
"Since newspapers touch the lives of every person, it is important that the men and women producing the newspapers have the know-how of handling people," he said. "The newspaperman must be skilled in handling the public, and not just news about it."
Dean Marvin explained school objectives in preparing journalism students for their profession. As one of 35 schools accredited by the American Council on Education for Journalism, the University journalism school combines practical experience with theory.
He emphasized the value of training obtained by students working on the University Daily Kansan.
"Students do not have trouble finding jobs upon graduation," Dean Marvin said. "Most of them are placed before completing their last semester."

Disabled Students May Get Service
Miss Marie Masson, field consultant from the Kansas division of the Vocational Rehabilitation service will be at the University Tuesday. All physically handicapped students who might be eligible for services should contact Miss Masson at the Kansas State Employment service during the morning or the Veteran's Building annex of Frank Strong from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. in the afternoon.
The flag is raised at sunrise and it is lowered at sunset
It Takes A Lot Of Bunting To Keep Stars And Stripes Flying Over Fraser
The length of time that the flag can be displayed without showing wear depends on weather conditions. Under mild conditions a flag can be flown for two or three months. During any type of storm and even when there is a whipping wind the flag is taken down.
When Gov. Lyman U. Humphrey visited the campus in 1886 he suggested that the flag be placed above Fraser hall. The K.U. flag which stands on the north side of the roof of Fraser hall was first flown eight years ago. Its pole which was 35 feet high was badly bent during a heavy rainstorm and has since been replaced.
The Student Union bookstore employed 68 students compared to the usual 15 during the between-semesters rush.
The national ensign which flies atop Fraser hall has not always occu pied its deserved place. In previous years it has been both stolen and misplaced.
Now, however, it is carefully guarded and there is little chance of it being further disgraced.
Bookshop Has Rush Week
Mr. L. E. Wooley, manager of the bookstore, said that the store would be doing business as usual now.
During the days when Hitler was dominating the thoughts of many, someone hoisted a swastika on the top of Fraser. A student climbed the 45-foot pole and brought down the Nazi flag replica. In climbing the pole the student injured his leg forcing him to go to the hospital where he was treated for blood poisoning.
Three years ago two flags were stolen from their Fraser storage room. One of them was returned by mail. Since then boxes have been made and the flags have been kept locked in them.
The regular employees are refunding money to veterans who paid cash for their textbooks and supplies at the beginning of the semester.
Used books are again being purchaed and rebates for the second half of 1948 are being paid to students who possess receipts. The rebate rate is 15 per cent.
KU Seniors Win Debates
Keith Wilson, College senior and first year law student, and William Conby, College senior, representing the University, won the senior division of the Ottawa university invitational debate tournament Saturday, with three victories and no defeats.
Another University team, J. Steve Mills and A. Kenneth Shearer, College sophomores, won three out of four debates. The debaters were accompanied by Kim Giffin, assistant professor of speech. They debated the subject of federal aid to education.
They are now preparing for a debate conference Feb. 25 at the University of Indiana. Mills and Shearer will attend a University of Nebraska conference on the same date Mr. Giffin said.
Warrensburg Teachers won the junior division with four debates and lost none.
The other teams entered in the one day tournament were from Kansas Wesleyan university, College of Emporia, William Jewell college, Washburn university, Tabor college, McPherson college, and Ottawa university.
Dr. A.C. Scott,'77 Dies In Oklahoma
Dr. Angelo C. Scott, 77, a member of the fourth class to graduate from the University, died Sunday in Oklahoma City. Dr. Scott also received his masters degree here in 1880.
In 1946 he was given a distinguished service award by the state which cited him as an "editor, writer, educator and organizer of the state of Oklahoma."
Following graduation he went to Oklahoma, then still a territory, and was instrumental in making it a state.
Yaple Announces Change In Dues
Job Interviews For Engineers
Mr. Emil V. Lindseph and Mr. Russell Sparks of the Federal Bureau of Reclamation will interview students in the School of Engineering Wednesday and Thursday for permanent and summer jobs in the bureau.
Richard Yaple, president of the Business School association, said today that membership dues will be charged to members at the beginning of the spring term. This is a return to the method used previous to the 1948 fall session when a "pay-as-vous-go" plan was started.
At 5 p.m. Wednesday a group meeting will be held in Lindley auditorium for students in architecture, electrical, mechanical, civil, and structural engineering who will graduate this spring or in the summer session to explain the bureau's program. Engineering graduates may receive a rating from the bureau without taking a civil service examination.
Yaple said that he and the executive council believed the old form of raising funds to be the most effective.
Another meeting will be held in Lindley auditorium at 5 p.m. Thursday for sophomores and juniors concerning possible summer work with the bureau. Civil service examinations are required for summer work.
Interested students may make reservations for interviews at the office of T. DeWitt Carr, dean of the School of Engineering, H1 Marvin hall by Thursday, Feb. 10.
