Texas Prof Dismissed
Austin, Tex. — (UP) — Carefully avoiding the use of the word "fired." University of Texas officials Tuesday insisted that J. Frank Dobie is no longer a University of Texas professor.
"Terminated automatically" was the expression chosen by President Theophilus S. Painter about drop-folklorist S伯尔布斯·folkorlist as a professor of English.
"The question has been raised as to whether or not my statement that Mr. Dobie's connection with the University has terminated automatically means that he has been dismissed," Dr. Painter said.
"To remain on the rolls of the University, Mr. Dobie must be either on active duty or leave. Since he cannot be on leave under the rules of the regents, he could only be on active duty. Since he refuses to go on active duty, his name must be registered with the usual procedure when any staff member quits or fails to report for duty."
Dobie was an applauded speaker Monday night at a meeting to form a co-operative grocery. He made no reference to the controversy over Dr. Painter's refusal to grant him additional leave so he can avoid the cedar pollen hay fever season in Austin, and work on a new book.
The range-riding, tale-telling professor has been on leave of absence for the past four years. He is currently a member of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural organization.

52 Attend KU From 24 Countries
Fifty-two students from 24 foreign countries and Hawaii are attending the University of Kansas this fall, Willis Tompkins, chairman of the faculty committee for foreign students, announced Thursday.
Thirty-one of these students attended the University the past year Only 45 foreign students were accepted by the University for 1946-47 term.
Mr. Tompkins said that a majority of these students pay their own expenses. However, some foreign students attend K.U. through the Institute of International Education, government scholarships from their own countries, university scholarships and through the foreign exchange system between the University and foreign universities and colleges.
