Bibler Books Go To Town As UDK Answers ASC
The "Little Man on Campus" is now off the campus. It is on sale at downtown Lawrence business firms.
The legality of the sale of the Bibler book was questioned by Robert Wehe, chairman of the auditing committee. The A.S.C. said the book competed with the council's calendar.
The committee also was quoted $ ^{ \textcircled{3}} $
is saying "it is against the University policy to approve publications issued for the profit of private individuals."
Richard N. Bibler, author of the book, said today, "The book is a very good book and the calendar is only an added feature. The calendar was started last spring and is not for the purpose of competing with the university calendar."
Promotion Idea
William J. Dill, Kansan promotion manager said "The main idea of the Bibler book is to promote the University Daily Kansan and not to gain a profit for any individual. It appears to me that there was an overall plan to keep the Bibler book from the students. The A. S. C. obviously knew that the Bibler book was coming out on Wednesday, and after making contracts and verbal arrangements to keep merchants from selling 'other calendars', the council waited and placed its ban the night before they were to go on sale. agreements in the restraint of trade isolates the Clayton act."
The other resolution by Betty van der Smissen, adopted by the Council, called for an investigation of University Daily Kankan's books to determine "the reason for so much diverting instead of news, and where the money from the sale of diverting space is spent."
State Audits Kansan
To this A.S.C. query, Lee Cole, advertising advisor, said, "The Kansan audited by the division of auditing and accounting, department of the budget, of the state of Kansas at Toeka, each year. This is public properly and may be seen in the business office of the College. The monthly financial statement is read to the Kansan board by the business manager. Since a member of the publications committee of the A.S.C. is allowed to sit in at any of these board meetings, full information on it Kansan's expenses and expenditures would have been available if he member had been present." The second printing of the Bibler cook will start shortly to meet
The second printing of the Bibler ook will start shortly to meet the emand, Dill said.
Chem Staff To K-State
The entire faculty of the chemistry department will visit Kansas State atrday where they will look over he chemistry building for new ideas nat will be of use when the University builds the new chemistry building.
The two staffs will hold an after- on meeting and discuss the research now in progress at Kansas late, and other problems of mutual terest.
The group plans to leave in the evening and return in the late afternoon. They will have lunch with Kansas State chemistry staff. Arrangements for the trip were made by Professor Robert Taft and Professor Harold Barbam of Kansas state.
Delay Frolic For AVC Concert
University students can no longer look forward to having a "battle of the bands" between Duke Ellington and Count Basie in January.
The freshman class had planned to bill Count Basic for their Freshman Frolic on Jan. 16. But this would have conflicted with the Duke Ellington concert sponsored by the American Veterans committee on Jan. 19.
So the Freshman Frolic has been postponed until March 20. This was decided Wednesday when the freshmen class officers met with the All Student social committee and Varsity dance manager Charles Johnson.
Robert Wehe, chairman of the A.S.C. auditing committee, pointed out that the veterans' group had already signed a $2,000 contract with Ellington. Wehe had asked Johnson to hold up signing the contract with Basie until a solution could be found.
Officers representing the freshmen at the meeting were John Howard, president, Betty Jo Bloomer, secretary, and Anna Marie Schumacher.
Vespers Program To Be Broadcast
The All Musical Vespers will be broadcast over Station KFKU from 4 to 5 p.m. Sunday, Dean D. M. Swarthout said today.
Following the evening performance the four living tableaux will be shown again for the benefit of the chorus.
No More Ducats For Bowl Game, Quigley Says
Orange Bowl tickets will be limited two to a person and will be sold only to University students, faculty and alumni, E. C. Quigley, University director of athletics said this morning.
Mr. Quigley has just returned from Miami where he conferred with the Orange Bowl committee. One item of bad news he brought back was that the University will not get more than the 2,500 tickets already allotted.
Inasmuch as orders already on hand exceed that number by several hundred, Mr. Quigley said that the only way to handle the ticket problem was to limit the orders to two tickets. All orders from persons outside the University will be returned.
Mr. Quigley predicted delivery of the tickets the latter part of next week, after adjustment on requests has been completed.
E. L. Falkenstien, business manager of athletics, said that although ticket orders were taken for four tickets to a person, they will not be distributed proportionally, but that both those ordering two tickets and those ordering four, would get the maximum number of two tickets.
The Jayhawkers will stay in the 135-room Venetian hotel while in Miami. A training table will be set up in the Kakto, which will serve as Kansas headquarters in Miami. The team will use the athletic facilities of the University of Miami to prepare for the game.
Final travel arrangements, will be made in conference between Coach Sauer and Quigley in a day or two, but it is believed that the team will fly to Miami, leaving on Dec. 26. This plan would allow most players to spend Christmas at home and still get to Miami in time to practice four days in the Florida climate before the game.
Kansas—Generally fair, a little warmer today. High today 38 to 43. Partly cloudy tonight, warmer west and central. Low tonight 15 to 25.

Governor Supports Band Trip To Miami
Wires Chancellor That Musicians Will Help 'To Celebrate Victory'
By MARTHA JEWETT
Managing Editor of the University Daily Kansan
Governor Frank Carlson Wednesday pledged his support for a movement to take the University band to the Orange Bowl game in Miami New Year's day.
The governor, after talking Wedn a representative of the students, an Daily Kansan, sent a telegram to Chancellor Deane W. Malott in Washington, urging University action in sending the band to Miami. Last week the University decided that the band would not make the trip because of financial reasons, lack of marching time in the between-halves-period, and midwest- precedents against taking bands to bowl games.
The governor, after talking Wednesday with four members of the band, a representative of the students, and a representative of the University sent a telegram to $ ^{*} $
Bowl Committee Willing
A telegram received by the Topeka Daily Capital Dec. 5 from Everett Clay, business manager of the Orange bowl, reads "No formal invitation extended to Kansas band, however E. E. Seller of the Orange bowl says he will be happy to have them come and will include them in the two parades, the game pagentry, and other events."
Small game receipts, lack of uniforms, and bands too large for convenient travel have been given as reasons for the Missouri, Illinois, and Oklahoma bands not going to bowl games in the past few years.
Prof. Russell L. Wiley, band director, today said that he was still bound by the decision of the chancellor not to send the band to Miami, and that he can't change his views until told otherwise. Governors' Telegram
The governor's telegram to the chancellor read:
"During the next five days several members of the R... members of the K.U. alumni, and other citizens of Kansas have urged me to assist in sending the band to the Orange bowl game. I think it would add much to the gala occasion to have the band present. As a matter of fact, we will need the band to properly celebrate our victory over Georgia Tech. I am sure you are

As a token contribution toward financing the trip the governor pulled a $10 bill from his pocket and handed it to the band's business manager, Harry Spencer, education senior.
In the delegation were Wayne Adams, Bob Robertson, Pete Wiley, and Spencer, all band members; Arnold England, Jr., representing the student body; and Martha Jewett, managing editor of the University Daily Kansan.
Presents ASC Resolution
While in Topeka, the group also visited Oscar Stauffer, member of the board of regents and publisher of the Topeka State Journal. He told the delegation he would meet with members of the board and with the chancellor and Mr. Quigley to hear arguments for and against the band trip.
Englund presented the governor and others the group visited with a resolution passed by the All Student Council Tuesday that the council would "request the board of regents and University officials to sanction solicitation of funds from alumni and friends of the University to send the band to the Orange bowl if other means could not be found."
Before leaving for Topeka, the delegation conferred with Laurence C. Woodruff, dean of men, and Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the alumni association. Members of the delegation reported this morning on the outcome of the trip to Dr. Woodcuff and Raymond Nichols, executive secretary to the chancellor.
The governor said he would con-
fer with the chancellor and E. C.
Cuileley, director of athletics, about
bands for the trip.
Samuel Wilson, manager of the Kansas Chamber of Commerce, and members of the Kansas industrial development commission gave hearty verbal support to the band trip, but were unable to offer state funds from their budgets.
Henry Bubb, Topeka alumni head, told the group his organization would give its support to any fundraising campaign, but they could not lead the drive because of solicitions now underway in Topeka for the K.U. football banquet on Dec. 18.
