STUDENT NEWSPAPER
Bookstore Buys Hospital Gifts From Rebates
Six table model radios and ten "armchair football" games were presented today to Watkins Memorial hospital by L. E. Woolley, manager of the Student Union bookstore.
Money for the gifts was obtained from the floor of the bookstore when discarded by students. Since the bookstore is a non-profit organization, receipts handed out in the bookstore during the semester are redeemable at 15 per cent of face value after every six-month period.
Four $100 scholarships for deserving students were made possible in addition to gifts for the hospital as a result of salvaging discarded rebate slips in the past, Mr. Woolley said.
Additional funds left over from the six month period ending July 1, were also used to help purchase the radios and games given to the hospital.
The ten "armchair football" games are for use by hospital patients when listening to football games on the radio. Each game consists of a heavy piece of pastboard on which is printed a replica of a playing field and scoreboard. Miniature, plastic sideline markers and pointers enable the listener to keep an accurate account of plays. Scores and quarters may be marked on the scoreboards in pencil and erased when changes are necessary.
KU Assists In Job Survey
The University's guidance bureau is helping train public school teachers of Kansas City, Mo., to survey the jobs available to high school graduates and provide each student with the right job.
Dr. A. H. Turney, director of the guidance bureau, said that a survey of all jobs available to high school graduates is to be made in Kansas City. A listing will be made giving the various skills and special requirements needed for success on the jobs.
O. H. Day, director of vocational education, and D. W. Daylor, coordinator of continuation education work and study, visited the guidance bureau to study the project. Both are members of the Kansas City public school staff.
Members of the public school's teaching staff will make the survey after attending a course in methods of gathering the information. Dr. Turney and the bureau are advisers for this course.
When the survey is completed, high school students in Kansas City who wish jobs will be able to consult teachers to find out what jobs are available and the requirements needed.

Rep. Hartley Here Oct.13
Fred A. Hartley, Jr., representative from New Jersey and co-author of the Taft-Hartley act, will speak before the Business School association Wednesday, Oct. 13. He will talk on labor relations and the Taft-Hartley act, Richard Yaple, president of the association, said Thursday.
"This semester marks the 25th anniversary of the School of Business," said Yaple, "and we intend to center all activities around the celebration of it. We have streamlined our agenda. No dues will be paid and that means that all students in the school will be members of the association."
"Instead of weekly movies, we will have four student-faculty mixers with prominent speakers at each. Representative Hartley will be the first and will speak on labor relations as he sees it. The other speakers have not been chosen yet but they too will probably speak on labor relations."
At the first meeting of the semester were representatives of S.A.M., Alpha Kappa Psi, Beta Gamma Sigma, Delta Sigma Pi, Phi Chi Theta, and Future Business Leaders of America. The Business School association coordinates these groups of the School of Business to promote unity and a professional attitude among the students.

Four Jailed In Strike Riot
Richmond, Calif., Oct. 5—(UP) Police riot squads arrested four C.I.O. oil workers in a picket-line battle outside the Standard Oil refinery here Tuesday and balked another riot in the month-old California oil strike.
Officers reported they went into a crowd of more than 100 stone-throwing strikers and seized the leaders after a brief struggle.
The strikers, setting up mass picket lines in an effort to prevent non-striking office workers from entering the refinery, were dispersed after the four leaders were shoved into patrol cars and jailed.
One steel-heLMETed policeman said "things were getting tough for a while but we managed to break it up."

Name Freshmen Candidates
The Independent Men's Political party Monday nominated for presidency of the freshman class John F. Leslie, College freshman. Other nominees are Arthur O. Kaaz, Jr. Engineering freshman, for representative to A.S.C., and Charles L. Childers, fine arts freshman, for treasurer.
Frank J. Rozich, engineering senior, was elected by unanimous ballot to fill the vacancy from District II on the A.S.C.
Talks on the problems confronting the organization, the candidates, and the A.S.C. were given by Robert Bock, president, and Robert Bennett, Independent men's floor leader in the A.S.C.
Soviets Plan Chute Jumps
The British charged the Russians with violating the safety provisions banning parachuting in corridors except during emergencies, and dropping anything that might interfere with planes.
Berlin, Oct. 5—(UP)—The Russians informed the air safety center today that they would hold practice parachute jumps in the Buckeburg-Berlin air corridor and the British immediately protested on grounds the jumps would violate two four-power safety regulations.
No times were given for the jumps. But the weather was ideal today, and a bright, sun and clear sky offered splendid visibility.
The Russians said the parachutists would be dropped from 2,800 feet.
This would endanger British aerial operations, since the British customarily fly at altitudes of less than 2.500 feet.
American authorities said no protest was planned.
Most American planes do not use the Buckeburg corridor and none fly at altitudes under 2,600 feet.
Meantime, the British indicated they held little hope that the Berlin crisis, now in the hands of the United Nations, would be solved immediately.
Scholarship Student Expected This Week

office, a Kansas resident cannot vote absentee on constitutional amendments. To cast a repeal ballot, most University students from Kansas will have to declare Lawrence as a legal residence, or return to their homes to vote.
"A peculiar quirk" in Kansas voting laws allows absentee voters to vote on all candidates, but not on constitutional amendments. Edward F. Arn, attorney general, said recently.
"Residence is pretty much a matter of intent," Mr. Arn said. "College students who claim their legal residence in the precinct where they now actually live may register and vote in the precinct."
K. U. students who did not vote in the Lawrence August primaries or who are registered in cities other than Lawrence can re-register at the city clerk's office here before Saturday, Oct. 23, and still be eligible to vote on repeal.
Sunflower students do not need to register since Johnson county established a precinct in Sunflower the past year, and formal registration is not required.
Kansas voting laws require that a voter must be 21 years old before election day, must have six months residence in the state and 30 days residence in the precinct.
Students who want to vote absentee without being eligible for repeal balloting may do so by getting ballots from any precinct and by designating the city in which they are registered. There is no deadline for absentee ballots.
The city clerk's office said that legal residence may be claimed at the time of registration if the other residence and age requirements are met. A married man's residence is usually considered as the place where his family lives.
Facilities have been available to University students for instate ballots the past year, James K. Hitt, registrar, said. No plans have been made yet to furnish facilities for the November elections. Mr. Hitt said he had no estimate on the number of K. U. students that would be affected by the instate absentee law. The state attorney general's office estimated that 12,000 Kansas college students would be affected.
Names of 11 "Bellringers" have been reported recently by the War Memorial association. A bellringer is one who has donated $100 or more toward construction of the Memorial campanile.
11 Bellringers Add To Memorial Fund
Courtney Sloan, engineering freshman from Kansas City, Mo., is the fifth member of his family to become a bellringer. J. H. Newlan, Whittier, Calif., a student in 1866, gave his fourth contribution.
Other new bellringers are: Henry J. Allen, William L. Ainsworth, Jr., David Ainsworth, Kean Tilford, and Charles C. Theis, all of Wichita; Mary Ainsworth Aikens, Independence, Mo.; Mr. and Mrs. William L. Ainsworth, Darby; and Morris L. Jones and the Commercial Candy company of Kansas City, Mo.
