Delegates from seven state chapters attended the American Association of University Professors annual state conference held at the University Saturday.
7 Schools Attend AAUP Meeting
University Schools represented were Kansas State college, Ft. Hays State college, Emporia State Teachers college, Washburn Municipal university Baker university, Kansas City university, and the University of Kansas.
The conference included guest speakers and a panel discussion. After the conference the University chapter of A.A.U.P. sponsored a banquet for the delegates. Dr. Ralph E. Himstead, general secretary of A.A.U.P., was guest speaker.
Ross M. Robertson, University instructor of economics, talked on "The Problem of Faculty Salaries" in the morning session. In the afternoon a panel discussion was conducted on what local chapters and state committees do to promote the objectives of the teaching profession and of the A.A.U.P.
A The panel discussion included E. F. Bayles, University professor of education, chairman; Dr. Harold Chouillau, professor of chemistry atPt. Hays State college; Prof. M. French, professor of philosophy at Washburn Municipal university at Topeka; Prof. O. E. Stene, University associate professor of political science; Prof. S. W. Cram, professor of physics at the Emporia State Teachers college; Prof. A. W. Wilcoxon, department of history, Kansas State college at Manhattan.
Dr. Ralph E. Himstead spoke on the history and activities of the association. He said the association seeks to emphasize that faculty members are associated with administrators and directors "in the joint enterprise of higher education and no mere employees of the institution."
He also emphasized the advance of higher education and democracy to maintain academic freedom. The profession has a responsibility toward the advancement of higher education, and the individual professor must be the judge of the fulfillment of that responsibility, Dr. Himstead added.
Resigns From ISA Council
Terryl Francis, College freshman recently elected Intramurals chairman of the Independent Students Association council, announced his resignation from the council because "certain members of the council were attempting to make the I.S.A. a political organ of the Independent party."
New Fowler Shops Will Be An Engineer's Paradise
"We'll have a modern factory for a workshop," said Paul G. Hausman, director of Fowler shops, in discussing the new engineering shops laboratory, construction of which will begin in about two weeks.
"Student engineers are going to enjoy a modern shop which will feature the latest developments in lighting systems, safety devices, power machinery, and shop organization.
"We want future engineers to correlate their book theory with actual practice in a shop which will be like the factories in which they will later work," the director said.
The $290,000 building, to be located on the slope of the hill 17 feet south of the mechanical laboratory building (back of Marvin hall), will be constructed from native stone, with an outside appearance very similar to Lindley hall.
Innovations In Lighting
In the new building, trolley wiring will provide overhead fluorescent lamps which can be moved on runners to any section of the floor desired. The trolley wiring system will also fill the need for easily accessible outlets for electrical machinery, a problem which has baffled factory technicians in the past. Another lighting feature will be large industrial-type windows, which will allow the right amount of natural light.
Many modern safety devices will be included. Huge suction fans will remove injurious gases from the heat treatment areas. A modern ventilating system will be installed in the welding booths.

Because, green is a soft color and easier on the eyes, most of the machinery will be painted in this color. To complete the color scheme, the floors will be red, the ceilings pastel blue. Moving parts of the machinery will be painted distinctive colors to reduce the possibility of accidents.
Woodruff, Tompkins Will Attend Deans' Meeting
The convention will be held from Thursday through Saturday, March 11 to 13. Dean Woodruff and Mr. Tompkins will return March 15.
Three Floor Operations
Three Floor Level
To coordinate the various departments between all three floors of the building, a centrally-located elevator, accessible by two outside loading docks, will be installed.
Plans call for the ground floor to be equipped with foundry, heat treatment, welding, and heavy machinery. The second floor will comprise the machine shop proper, while the third floor will include the precision - measuring laboratory, plastics, aircraft sheet metal, and pattern-making machinery.
He stated that part of the contract provides that the large stone nameplate, "Fowler Shops, 1888," is to be removed from the old building and placed on the outside of the new. Thus the name of George A. Fowler, who endowed the present shops, will be perpetrated on the campus.
Most of the equipment for these shops is part of a two million dollar allotment of surplus war industrial equipment received by the University. Mr. Hausman said.

Finns To Ally With Soviets
Helsinki, March 8—(UP)—The government of Finland decided today to accept a proposal by Premier Josef Stalin for negotiations on a Finnish-Soviet alliance.
President Juho K. Paasikivi and the cabinet reached the decision to negotiate with Russia at a meeting this afternoon, a member of the government reported after the momentous session.
The foreign affairs committee of the cabinet had met shortly before noon at the presidential palace. The full cabinet meeting was called to hear the committee's recommendations. Erkki Haermae, deputy minister of transport and public works, said after the full cabinet meeting that the decision had been made to accept the Soviet proposal for negotiations on a friendship and military pact.
The Communists also tried to kick and beat Huntenen. Six persons were arrested during the disorders. Police at first said those arrested were Communists.
The first violence of the Russian treaty crisis occurred Sunday when communists broke up a meeting at which Ernesti Hentunen, leader of the small Radical party with 3,000 members, spoke against the treaty.
After a police spokesman corrected this. He said those arrested were Hentunen's bodyguards. They were arrested by mistake, he said, and no Communists were taken into custody.

Hentunen cried for help and police guarding the platform stepped in. They whisked Hentunen from the scene in a police car. The police chief took the microphone and ordered the crowd to leave quietly. In 15 minutes the square was deserted.
"The greatest race that I ever ran in my life was in the Milrose games this winter in Madison Square Garden when I broke the world indoor mile record in 4:05.3."
This was the statement of Gil Dodds, world indoor mile champion as spoke before a Youth For Christ rally Sunday evening at the Community dir
"My coach told me before the race that he thought I was going to run my mile in 4:06 that night," Mr. Dodds said. "He gave me instructions to watch him as he stood along the inside of the track and he would tell me when to step out." 'Champions Must Work'
The champion miler, who is also an ordained minister, said that there are many athletes of today who could be the greatest runners of all times if they were only willing to make the sacrifices and put forth the effort that running requires.
The curly-haired distance star told of knowing "Bill" Easton, K.U.'s new track coach when he coached at Drake. Drooks also spoke about the

Petition For New Party Gets Signatures
A drive to get 450 signatures on a petition for a Reform party in campus politics has more than succeeded, Delbert Miller, engineering freshman, said today. The drive was conducted Friday.
A meeting of the Reform party will be held at 7 p. m. tomorrow in the Pine room of the Union.
The nucleus of the Reform party, headed by Miller and Terryl W. Francis, College freshman, bolted the Alliance of Student Voters at its first meeting March 3, charging that the A. S. V. intended to combine forces with the Independent party just prior to the April election.
"The A. S. V. will either withdraw from campus politics altogether or form a coalition with some other political party because of its ignominious inception." Francis predicted. He added that "the A. S. V. is now controlled by the same radical group that dominates the Independent party."
