Valentine Dance Being Planned
Plans are under way for another "Sweetheart Swing" this year, Feb. 14. Feature of the Valentine dance will be the presentation of candidates from 11 universities for the title of "Queen of Hearts." The girls will be escorted to the dance by 11 candidates for "King of Hearts" from the K. U. campus.
Food packages for European residents will be handled by the Y.M.C. A. through the non-profit Co-operative for American Remittances to Europe.
The dance will be held in the Union ballroom, with music by Harlan Livingood and his orchestra. A nighttime atmosphere will be in keeping with the "Manhattan Merry-keeping" theme of the dance. The program will include the presentation of a dance that is representative of each nightclub in Manhattan, from South American music to the most romantic waltz tune. Vocal selections will be sung by Jeanne Chambers, sophomore in the School of Fine Arts.
The main event of the evening will be the introduction of the 10 guest candidates and the one candidate from the University for the crowning as Queen of Hearts. Their escorts will be selected in advance as the "ten most dateable male students" on the campus, and will compete for the King of Hearts crown. Each winner will be presented with surprise gifts from merchants of Lawrence.
Schools sending candidate queens are: Washburn, Kansas State, Kansas State Teachers College at Emporia, Kansas State College at Emporia, Ottawa University, Baker University, University of Nebraska, University of Missouri, University of Kansas City and University of Wichita.

C.A. office, the package and the address are forwarded by airmail to New York.

was given to the University by Tom Poor of Olathe, in memory of his daughter, Melissa, who died of polio. The tank was made in Kansas City by friends of the Poors to help Melissa exercise her affected muscles at home when she was recovering. But Melissa died before she was able to use the tank.
The key-hole shaped metal tank, named for the doctor who designed it, was placed in a storage room which was refinished in the physical therapy department at the University hospital. The tank's shape is to make it more convenient for the physical therapist to help the patient exercise. The use of warm water in the tank enables the polio victim to exercise weak muscles easier and relieve severe muscular pain. Motor For Streicher
The physical therapy department has treated more than 20 patients with polio in the past two years. Three University students have been treated. The rest of the patients have been from the surrounding community, since the physical therapy department is open to the publi-

Charges Plot With US Planes
Caracas, Venezuela, Feb. 2.—(UP) President Romulo Betancourt charged today that a movement to overthrow the Venezuelan government and possibly bomb Caracas with two American liberator bombers was taking form in Nicaragua.
President Betancourt said his government had obtained information that the plot, headed by three former Venezuelan airforce officers, was aimed at preventing the inauguration of the new Venezuelan President-elect, Romulo Gallegos.
President Betancourt said the planes that brought the group to Puerto Cabezas, and which may be used to bomb Caracas, came from the United States on Jan. 27. One left from Dayton, Ohio, and the other from Augusta, Ga., he said.
Two Liberator bombers without bombbisms, allegedly intended for use by Vencuzuel revolutionaries, were flown away from Bush Army Air field, Augusta, Ga., by American silos Jan. 27.
Bush field public relations office said the aircraft were sold to an American last summer. He advertised the planes and another American bought them and then sold them to parties said to be interested in the revolutionary plot.
As a social get-together to start the second semester, the Student Union Activities will sponsor an all student dance Wednesday, in the Union ballroom.
Bush field heard that the Liberators were chased to California by government agents but did not know whether they were caught. The public relations office also believed that a third plane bought here, a C-46 cargo or troop carrying craft, ultimately got into the hands of the revolutionaries.
'Two-Bit' Dance To Star New Semester's Activities
Music will he played by Kass Kassinger and his orchestra. The dance will be from 8 to 11 p.m. Admission to the dance is 25 cents a person.
Riots Continue As Followers Mourn Gandhi
New Delhi, Feb. 2—(UP)—Devoted followers gathered the ashes of Mohandas K. Gandhi from the funeral pyre beside the sacred Jumna river today while the Indian government moved swiftly to stamp out a nation-wide conspiracy against other Hindu leaders.
C. V. Deshpandes, general secretary of the extremist Mahasabha organization of which Gandhi's assassin was a member, was arrested along with several minor officials of his faction.
Police said the arrests were made in connection with a plot calling for further assassinations, possibly those of Premier Jawaharlal Nehru, Home Minister Sardar V. Patel, and other supporters of Gandhi. Twenty-Seven Killed
Violence flared at six new points in India over the weekend, bringing the casualty toll since Gandhi's death to 27 killed and 107 wounded. Police fired on mobs in Bombay and the Madras states.
Officials said the plot against Gandhi and other leaders spread through all sections of India. Many names of those implicated have been obtained from Gandhi's assassin, Narayan Vianyak Gadse, and others are believed to be among supporters and contributors to Gadse's extremist paper in Poona. May Arrest More
Officials of the criminal investigation department flew to Poona, possibly to make more arrests, and orders were flashed to all department heads in the provinces to watch for and arrest suspects.
Campus Police Are All Dressed Up
It's new uniforms for the campus policemen. Forest green whipwords have replaced the familiar olive drabs.
Grey "scotchlike" safety tape, which glares when light strikes it, is the special feature of the suits.
The safety tape is on the shoulders, sleeves, and breast pockets of the "combat" type jackets, and on the caps and overcoats.
"Now we can be seen even before we're heard." Robert Corwin, campus officer said. "If anyone hits us it'll be a pure case of murder."
The uniform consists of jacket, matching pants, light green overcoat, cap, Sam Browne belt, and tan poplin shirt.
Trimming the uniform are, red stripes on the trouser legs and coat sleeves, a Jayhawker insignia, a traffic officer patch, and 14 silver buttons with the state motto, "Ad astra per aspera," meaning "To the stars through difficulties."
