Informed Help Eliminates Ads Hatch Believes
James Hatch, vice-president of Union Wire Rope company, Kansas City, Mo., told the Industrial Relations representatives today that you don't have to buy newspaper space to tell the community about your life of the story. Mr. Hatch spoke on "Communication."
"If you keep an informed personnel," he said, "they will tell the community your story for you."
He said the lawyer would either feel important to his suitor more than to take home a potter toy envelope.
Take a look at how company books reflect the last year's hike in revenue. We asked in the show committee elected the employees, save them figures showing how much the hike would mean to the company in a year, how much the material would cost to operate for that year, and how important it was for the business to show a profit on its books.
Ernest R. Eich, personnel director of City National Park and Trust company, Kansas City, Mo., explained "the injury and Application," said that the investment in a new employee sometimes ran into "astronomical figures."
"The shop committee asked us to rent these furniture into a wire receiver so that they could re-tell our share to the other shop members. In the next month our production in enterprise considerably, even though our did not grant the bike."
"When you select a new employee that is 6 potential investment of $20,000 to $50,000," he said. "If your choice is a bad one, you may get only $8,000 back from your investment."
Mr. Each stressed the public relations aspect of the interview. He said customers will talk about your firm either favorably or unfavorably, depending on the impression you make on them at the interview.
Representatives from the C.I.O. and A.F. of L. unions were welcomed, repeatedly recognized, and management leadership mean to the worker.
New Building Only A Rumor
Gov. Frank Carlson will be a guest tomorrow at a luncheon meeting of the board of directors of the research foundation in the East room of the Union.
Denying a rumor that governor Carlson's presence at the luncheon had anything to do with the chemical research building reported earlier as "about to be built," Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, said, "The research foundation did not say that a new building would be built. The board only pointed out the need of such a building.
"Most of us realize that the University could use more space; but needing it and getting it are not the same thing.
"At this time I can foresee no new building unless the money for one comes as a gift," he asserted.

Raging Blizzard Moving East
Dodge City, Nov. 19—(UF)—One of the worst blizzards in many years howled into its second day in Western Kansas today.
Throughout this area communications that were ripped away by the 5- mile road. Highway traffic was palpable. Trains were moving at a parallel pace. Power lines were down in numerous areas. Dulce City had only emergency power for police and the local radio station.
Police received a number of calls from relatives of persons unreported in the blinding storm, seeking volunteers to help search. Chet Winters reported his two children had not returned home. "Thursday night they were last seen near a booster station at the edge of the city."
The storm slowly was moving eastward from the wind-and-snow buffeted western plains. Wichita reported blowing and drifting snow with visibility of one-eighth mile today. Hutchinson reported similar conditions. Blowing and drifting snow continued at Goodland, with a 42-mile wind and a temperature of 19.
Much cooler weather was on the heels of the storm, characterized by old-timers here as the worst early blizzard they could recall. The weather bureau warned the mercury night dip to 5 above zero in North-west Kansas tonight.
Tom Glasscock, highway patrol captain, reported he was unable to communicate west of here. The Garden City highway patrol radio was off the air. Captain Glasscock said he was receiving "scores of calls" from persons with unreported relatives.
While roadways in the rolling plains area of Southwest Kansas had their white covering dotted with the snow covered bumps formed by marooned vehicles, highway maintenance equipment was having difficulties too. Capt. Glasscock said "a lot of it" also was stuck.
A Santa Fe train, creeping west-
ward, last night picked up 25 persons who abandoned their cars and trucks on a highway paralleling the track. Another 40 persons spent the night in a tiny railroad depot at Wright.

Conference Title Hangs On OU Tilt
The Big Seven title hinges upon the outcome of the most important football contest of the conference year when the light, fast Kansas Jayhawkers meet the powerful giants of Oklahoma at 2 p.m. tomorrow in Memorial stadium.
A Kansas victory would assure the Jayhawks of at least a share of the
Halftime Show By KU Band
The University marching band will take the entire half-time period at the game tomorrow to put on a formation show.
The first part of the show will have the theme of the opening of the Cherokee strip into Oklahoma. The band will play "Home on the Range" then as a pistol shot who out band members will scramble into the formation of L, a covered wagon. The wagon will move down the field as the band plays "Wager: Brakes."
The impressions will also be recognized when the band forms 'UHF' and plays "Three Blind Miles." The band will then move into the formation of HI and play "Newlydroo Everybody." The band next will form a big OU and play "Boomers Sooners."
The snow will end with a revolting "K", which will cover the whole field, and the band will play "I'm a Jayhawk" and "The Crinson and the Blue."
Word was received in Lawrence today which should prove quite interesting to Jayhawker football fans who plan to attend the game tomorrow at Memorial stadium.
Oklahoma Not Worried
A Tulsa newspaper this week printed a brief interview by its sports editor of Buddy Burris, Oklahoma's All-American guard candidate. In two quotations attributed to the Sooner lineman, he said that he expected the Kansas team to show fight but that he was not worried as to the outcome of the game. He referred to the Jayhawker eleven as a team "of good substitutes," and expressed the opinion that no man on the Kansas squad could "break into the first string for either Missouri or Oklahoma."
Burris closed by saying he admired the Kansas fire and hustle but that superior manpower could not help but determine the game. The article was written for Tulsa readers, but many Kansans, since hearing the slighting statements, would give anything to make the Sooner guard eat his words.
'Miss Missouri'
To Attend Prom
"Miss Missouri of 1948" will help six chaperones choose "Prince Charming and Cinderella" at the Pumpkin Prom tomorrow night in the Union ballroom.
Miss Dorothy Jean Smith, 19, who won her title in statewide competition last summer, was a contestant to the Atlantic City "Miss America" beauty contest early this fall.
Presently attending the University of Kansas City, Miss Smith is a junior studying music and dramatics. She won a special award as "best supporting actress of 1947-48" in the K.C.U. dramatics department.
title—regardless of the outcome of the Kansas-Missouri game on Turkey day at Columbia. An Oklahoma victory would clinch a clear-cut Sooner claim to the conference title. Pro-game predictions show Oklahoma as 14 point favorites on the backs of their low-sided victories over such opponents as Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa State, and Kansas State. Kansas compares favorably in the season's win-lost columns and has an equal number of conference wins, but can boast of no such scoring totals over the same conference teams.
An overflow crowd of about 99,000 fans is expected to pack the University's bierhose stadium to break all attendance records for an Oklahoma-Kansas contest. If the demand for tickets continues, tomorrow's attendance total may even surpass the all-time Memorial stadium last year of 49,032 recorded during last year's games with Missouri.
Coonin Bud Willittman's Scooners are rated as one of the greatest teams in Oklahoma history. At least two Southern quarterback Jack Mitchell and guard Bucky Burke are ranked as possible all-America contenders. Other slantback players include half-back Donald Thomas, who is threaten-able; Joe Golden, all-time Oklahoma rushing record, both more half-Lindell Pearson, ranking third in conference rushing statistics, and Darrell Royal ranking second to top man Mitchell in the punt returns column.
Coach J. V. Sikes' Jayhawkers have compiled several important offensive masks of their own. Dick Gilman is the most potent passer in the conference with a total net gain surpassing both the rushing and passing competitors. Gilman also has completed 14 touchdown passes. Another Kansas first, pass receiving, is held by End Bryan Sperry, while Darell Norris rates seventh in the same category. Kansas' Forrest Griffith and Clif McDonald are among the first four in the pout returns and leading scorers columns.
Both squads will be in good physical condition. Oklahoma fares a little better in this respect as the entire Sooner team will be available for action tomorrow while the Jayhawkers will be missing the services of halfback Frank Pattee. Coach Sikes hopes to balance the loss of Pattee's services with the indomitable fighting spirit and fast-breaking speed of the entire Kansas team.
Tomorrow's game will be featured as "Dad's day" for fathers and sponsors of Kansas players.
