Christmas Seals To Go On Sale In Two Booths
Booths will be placed in Frank Strong and Fraser halls to sell Christmas seals during the next few weeks.
James McCoy, chairman of the University anti-tuberculosis drive, told house representatives Wednesday that each organized house is to furnish salesmen for these booths. The salesmen should bring the seals and the necessary change to make sales.
40 Attend Meeting
More than 40 persons who attended the organizational meeting heard Dr. C. F. Taylor, superintendent of the tuberculosis institute in Horton and Topeka, speak on the need for money to combat the disease. He is a Fellow in the American College of Surgery.
Dr. Taylor explained that 75 per cent of the money raised is kept by the county. Twenty per cent goes to the state, and five per cent goes into the national fund.
X-Ray Needed Every Six Months
"Too many people will not report for treatment because they are not sick," he said. "The disease does not show symptoms until it is too late. If everyone had an X-ray every six months, it would be a godsend."
Representatives of organized houses present at the meeting were Robert Ogilvie, Abigail Bixby, Jack Gillum, Frank Palmer, Bogue Harrison, Jim Fishback, Rozanne Croff, Mary Margaret Huse, Alan C. Ray, Rita Swearingen. Mabel Ellen Cable, Jackie Campbell, Evelyn Beach, June Mallory, Verla Achey, Virginia Patch.

Spring Semester Enrollment Dates Are Feb.2 To 4
If you were one of the unfortunate who had to enroll on the last day for this semester's classes, you will find the spring schedule more to your liking.
The group scheduled for the first day is the same as the one enrolled on the last day in the fall, according to the schedule released by James K. Hitt, University registrar.
Enrollment will begin on Monday, Feb. 2, 1948, and end on Wednesday, Feb. 4. Since final examinations are scheduled to end on Thursday, Jan. 29, this will give book-weary students time to catch their breath.
Registration and enrollment begins on the first day with the letters Ea and ends with Mas. On Tuesday, names beginning with the letters Mat start the day, and names beginning with Us finish the list. The final day begins with Ut through Z and concludes with A to Dz.
Payment of fees will take place as part of the registration process. Students now enrolled will not be required to register, but must pay their fees before they will be allowed to enroll. Enrollment after final day will be permitted only after the student has paid an additional fee of $2.50. Veterans will follow the same schedule as non-veterans, Mr. Hitt said.
Printed copies of the schedule of registration will be available to students in the registrar's office before Christmas vacation.
Enrollment hours will be from 8:30 to 12 and 1:30 to 5 e-mail day. Classes are scheduled to begin on Thursday, Feb. 5.

Dr. Neff Funeral Set For Friday
Prof. Russell L. Wiley, band director, said that a story in today's Tepeka Daily Capital had given the wrong impression of his reac-
Funeral services for Dr. Frank C. Neff, ementus professor of pediatrics at the University of Kansas Medical center and physician to thousands of children during his career, will be held at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow at the Trinity church, Kansas City, Mo. Dr. Neff died of a heart ailment Wednesday morning.
H. R. Wahl, dean of the University School of Medicine, said that students will be dismissed from classes at 1 p.m. tomorrow to attend the funeral services for the beloved teacher.
Speaking of Dr. Neff, Dean Wahl said, "Dr. Neff was one of the most excellent men we had in the school. He was a key man in developing the medical school and in encouraging the erection of the children's building. He obtained $60,000 dollars from an anonymous donor to build the Children's pavilion at the hospital. He was dearly beloved by all students and faculty members and his professional knowledge will be sorely missed."
Chancellor Deene W. Malott said, "The University of Kansas has lost one of the great builders of the medical school in the death of Dr. Frank C. Neff, professor emeritus of pediatrics, and for many years head of the department of pediatrics. He gave generously and unitingly of his time and strength to the school, its students, and the little children in whose service he bestowed ifaugh the years his medical skill."
Dr. Neff retired from the pediatrics department at the University of Kansas Medical center in 1945 after serving for 21 years as head of that department.
Bible Sees Happy New Year For KU
Football is more firmly fixed in the affection of the American people today than ever before, Dane X. Bible, athletic director at the University of Texas, said last night at the annual Jayhawker football banquet.
Each member of the 51-man Kansas squad was presented an Elgin wristwatch. Coach George Sauer received a portable radio and luggage, and all assistant coaches got presents. The gifts were donated
Speaking before 450 members and guests of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, the former Nebraska coach hinted at a Kansas Orange Bowl victory over Georgia Tech.
by Lawrence fans through the Chamber of Commerce and presented by Chi Galloway, chairman of the sports committee. Athletics Make Good Man
"Any team that has the stability shown this year by Kansas can start the New Year off as you want it started," Mr. Bible said. "You are going to be proud of the showing your great team will make in the Orange Bowl."
Lynne McNutt and Otto Schnellbacher were presented trophies as the outstanding Jayhawker back and linesmen of the year. The two players were selected for the honor by their coaches, Ray Evans and Don Fambrough, who were chosen at the close of the 1946 season, were ineligible for the awards this year.
Honor McNutt, Schnellbacher
Chancellor Deane W. Malott directed a hefty verbal kick in the pants last night toward Dr. Frederick Middlebush, president of Missouri university, who recently complained that he was forced to sit on the 10-yard line at the Kansas-Missouri game.
Speaking at the annual Jayhawk-wer football banquet, Chancellor Malott said that at future geo Kansas would "take good care of that venerable educator, even if it means providing him with a quilt and rocking chair in the press box."
"In fact I'll even hold him on my lap, if it will give him a better view of our great Kansas teams of the future." Chancellor Malott concluded.
Athletics Make Good Men
"The football field and basketball court are the best places to train a boy how to be a fine man," Mr. Bible said in the principal address, "Fine teams are not made up of individuals, but of large groups.
"You have an organization here which will continue to function effectively as long as you help the coaches train the boys to make touchdowns and become sound, decent men," he said. Bible Coached Sauer
Paul J. Adam, president of the Kansas City Alumni association, presented the outstanding lineman trophy to "that great end and co-captain, Otto Schnellbacher, one of the greatest Jayhawkers ever to wear the Crimson and Blue."
Mr. Bible was Nebraska's head coach during the year George Sauer received All-American honors. In introducing the speaker, E. C. Quigley, athletic director, labeled him "the outstanding athletic director and coach of the nation."
(continued to page three)
He said, "I am not disgruntled over the fact that the band will be unable to make the trip. I did not say any of the quotations attributed to be by the Capital reporter."
E. C. Quigley, director of athletics, was not available for comment on the Daily Capital story. Give Persons
Give Reasons
Here are the reasons:
Professor Wiley said that several reasons had been advanced for the University's decision not to take the 125 Jayhawker musicians to Miami. Here are the reasons:
1. Taking the band on the six-day Orange Bowl trip would cost about $15,000 by pullman or $8,000 by bus.
2. There is no display time between halves for the band to march, since the Orange Bowl committee has already scheduled a 20-minute event.
Made Trip To Washington
3. A check with other midwestern teams who have gone to bowls reveals that they did not take their band. (The Nebraska band went to the Rose Bowl in 1941 but the members raised their own expenses to make the trip.) Made Trim To Washington
The longest trip the University band ever made was to Washington, D.C. in 1938 to attend the Kansas-George Washington university game. The bill was footed by alumni, the student council, organized houses and friends from a drive started by the University Daily Kansan. The campaign carried a prize of a free trip to Washington for the person who raised the most money.
Disappointment prevailed on the campus when it was announced that the band would not make the trip. Several members of the undefeated Jayhawker football team also expressed their disappointment when they heard the announcement that no Jayhawker music would be played at the Miami bowl.
Received New Uniforms
The University band recently received new uniforms costing about $13,000. Professor Wiley said these uniforms were paid for by an allotment from the University budget committee. He said that the Alumni association did not pay for the uniforms, as was reported in the Topeka Daily Capital.
