Judy Resigns As Party Leader
Resignation of Dale Judy, president of the Independents party, was accepted Monday night. He will be succeeded by Ralph McClung, vice-president.
The resignation was in a four-page statement including comments on several phases of campus political activity. In a plea for cooperation and unity among University organizations, Judy rapped both parties in the All Student Council—University Daily Kansan dispute.
"There is no reason why the ASC shouldn't know what is going on in Kansan affairs unless it is merely a step to violate the Kansan's semi-independent status," the retiring president said. "The Kansan employed a bull-like roaring in its defense and the result has been to pit the student government against the news organ."
Holding the Kansan's answer to a charge of carrying excessive advertising to be inadequate, Judy said that "this does not prevent the ASC from looking carefully at its position before it acts." He recommended that the council "look ahead of items that they will act upon" and "sound out reaction."
Commending the spirit shown at the football rally following the victory over Missouri, Judy called for loyalty to the University above that given to organized houses to promote common welfare. He will continue his affiliation with the party in an unofficial capacity.
A committee to write a party platform was appointed. Members are Lyle Martin, chairman, Joe Manello, Walter Brown, Eugene Martin, and Bromleigh Lamb.
Campus Help Stops Work Until Pay Comes
About 176 state civil service employees of the buildings and grounds department at the University of Kansas were idle today because they had not yet received their monthly pay checks.
A self-appointed spokesman for the University laborers said that the workers had made* a "gentleman's agreement" not to work until the day late checks arrived from Topeka.
Steam-fitters, carpenters, painters, plumbers, electricians and gardeners were the major working groups who refused to leave the buildings and grounds shops. Several workers were punching the time clock, but only a handful had worked this morning.
"I don't know anything about it" Raymond Nichols, executive secretary said. "This is the first I have heard. The checks are made out in Topeka, and usually get here on the 15th. We don't have anything to do with it at the University."
The civil service checks are due by the 15th of every month. A University gardener said that the checks were more oiten late than on time.

WEATHER
Kansas- Generally fair today, tonight and Wednesday. Somewhat warmer today and tonight and in east half Wednesday.
The band's trip depends upon the success of Governor Frank Carlson's personal appeal for the $15,000 necessary for accommodations, train fare, and incidentals for the 120-piece band, cheerleaders, and chaperones.
On the campus, Jay Janes are sponsoring contribution booths in Frank Strong hall, Marvin hall, and the Union to receive student donations for the band fund.
Topeka—(UP)—In a move to obtain quick successful completion of the drive, Gov. Frank Carlson today began calling Kansas alumni in each county to spearhead local campaigns for funds to send the K.U. band to the Orange Bowl. Meanwhile personal and mailed contributions received in Topeka climbed over the $1,500 mark. Officials have estimated that $15,000 is necessary to pay for a trip for the 120-piece school band.
"We feel that if the alumni are being asked to do so much, the students will want to help too," Marian Minor, Jay Jane president, said today. "After all, it's the student's band."
The Independent Student Association council proposed Monday that members of the council be elected by I. S. A. members instead of representing classes as formerly.
The Jay Janes as an organization expect to contribute about $65 for the fund, Miss Minor added. Other campus organizations and organized houses have voted to give money to the fund.
Contributions for the fund in Lawrence are being received at the First National bank, the Lawrence National bank, Ober's, Carl's, Rankin drug store, and at the chamber of commerce office.
