K.U. Will Get All10 Buildings In F.W.A.Grant
Ten buildings will be included in the recently - announced federal works administration grant to the University, Prof. George Beal, K.U. architect, announced today.
Professor Beal returned Wednesday night from a trip to the Coffeyville Air base, where nine of the buildings are located. The tenth which has not been inspected, is at Lake City, east of Independence, Mo.
The original message from Sen. Arthur Capper had not specified whether the University was getting seven or 10 buildings.
The trip to Coffeyville was shortened because blueprints removed the necessity of inspecting and measuring each building individually, the professor said.
"Resource-full Kansas" is the title of the booklet published recently by the state geological survey staff at KU.
Professor Beal will draw up specifications, when approved by the state architect and the board of regents, will be given to the government for use in contracting for the transfer and placement of the buildings.
Prof. W. W. Richardson accompanied Professor Beal to Coffevilley

No Use 'Keeping Up,' Ise Advises KU Dames
"Wise persons avoid debts." Prof. John Ise, of the economics department, told the Sunflower chapter of K.U. Dames at a meeting Wednesday night.
Mrs. Max Kernigan, president of the chapter, introduced Professor Ise who spoke on "Home Finance."
"Never buy on installment payments because one never has the proper perspective," he advised K.U. wives. Homes may be the exception to this rule, he added, but warned that many buyers neglect to figure the rate of interest on houses.
Professor Ise suggested economizing on food by serving simple, nourishing meals. "A good cook can save almost one-half on ordinary food bills," he asserted.
The uselessness of trying to "keep up with the Jones's" he pointed out, "is that as soon as you catch up, the Jones' will try to get ahead again."
"Buy good clothes and wear them a long time," he advocated.
"Don't economize on health, cleanliness, or things that will grow in value," Professor Ise concluded.
Quill Club Meets Tonight
Members of Quill club, creative writing organization, will meet at 7 tonight in the East room of the Union. The group will consider manuscripts of prospective members at the meeting.

Some Vets' Checks Arrive At VA Office
Some veterans' subsistence checks are being received at the Veterans' Training service office, room 2. Frank Strong hall, Prof. E. R. Elbel, director, said today.
Before a veteran receives his first check, he gets a "letter of award" of notification from the veterans' administration. Some letters of award have been received by Elbel's office and forwarded. If the veteran has received a letter of award forwarded from the University, his check may be among those now there.
If the veteran has not yet received a letter of award or has received checks previously, his check will not be at the Veterans training service office.
No checks will be forwarded through the mails, according to Elbel, because of the danger of loss or theft.
Lawson To Speak
Dr. Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, will speak tonight in Salina at an alumni meeting being held in connection with the teachers meeting.
