Student Court Justices Appointed Appropriations Approved By A.S.C.
Six associate justices of the student supreme court, named Tuesday night at a meeting of the All-Student council, were slated to open hearings this week on several hundred cases of complaints against traffic tickets.
The justices named are Granville Bush, Richard Gunn, and Kenneth Ray, who will serve two years, and Carla Eddy, Glee Smith, and Robert Siatter who will serve one year.
A chief justice will be named this week by the faculty of the School of Law. A student prosecutor will be nominated and approved at the meeting of the A.-S.C. Oct. 29.
Appropriations to talling $2,164 were approved at the Tuesday meeting for distribution to eight campus organizations.
The appropriations, introduced by Carroll McCue, chairman of the finance committee, are Y.M.C.A. $250; Y.W.C.A. $200; Forums board, $738; Mortar Board, $200; Sachem, $250; Homecoming committee, $175; Social activities committee, $200; and intramurals, $150.
The A.S.C., McCue pointed out, will assume one-fourth (not more than $175) of the expenses of Homecoming. The other three-fourths are shared equally by the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, the Athletic association, and the Alumni association.
A $150 portion of the Sachem appropriation was allotted for the attempt to nationalize Sachem, senior men's honorary fraternity.
Saechem plans to try to affiliate with Omicron Delta Kappa, national honorary fraternity, but will retain its name for campus purposes.
Of the $739 appropriated to the Forum board, $500 was requested by the board and an additional $239 was added to take care of the United Nations convention which will be sponsored next semester by the International Relations club.
Three new members were sworn in by the council. They are George Robb, Pachacamac; Gene Alford, Y.M.C.A.; and Clifford Reynolds, P.S.G.L.
Alford's eligibility was contested by George Caldwell, P.S.G.L., on the grounds that he was not appointed by a petition of 25 percent of the Y.M.C.A. A decision by Howard Engleman, A.S.C. president, interpreted the signatures of the Y.M.C.A. officials on the letter of appointment as proof of a majority vote.
Alford was admitted on a council vote of 14 to 6.
William Spicer, chairman of the traditions committee, introduced two amendments to the constitution. They are to be handled at the next meeting of the council.
"We have plenty of people who want to be cheerleaders," he said, "and they'll make good ones. If the ones we have can't show the spirit, they don't deserve the job."
The amendments call for an increase in the number of alternate cheerleaders, and for the dismissal of any cheerleader who misses three events.
Plans for securing Hoch auditorium for rallies before each home gone have been abandoned, Spicer said, because of the difficulty of finding that building with a free hour.
No Meat Price Control
"Cockeyed," Landon Says
Topeka (UP) - Alf M. Landon, 1946 GOP presidential candidate, today charged that President Truman's speech Monday night announced the end of meat price controls was "as cockeyed as everything else Mr. Truman has been fumbling around with."
"Price control was wrecked when wage control was thrown out the window, when Mr. Truman tried to tell us that wages could be raised regardless of a decrease in production without prices going up," Mr. London said.
Math Club To Meet
Prof. Robert Schatten will lead a discussion on "Finite Dimensional Spaces" at colloquium of the mathematics department at 5 p.m. tomorrow in 222 Frank Strong hall,
K.U. Stadium May Be Full
Memorial Stadium will be filled for the first time in history when George Sauer sends his Jayhawkers against Bernie Masterson's Nebraska eleven on Homecoming day.
Earl Falkenstien, secretary of the athletic association, handed down this prediction today as he waded through the continuing stream of ticket orders for the second postwar homecoming.
"We are selling tickets in the north curve of the stadium and past the goal line at the south end," Falkenstien said. "There is no question about a sellout which means we should have a crowd of 35,000. If the present ticket sales continue we may have to put bleachers at the south end which would give us a seating capacity of 38,000."
Record attendance for a single home game was 31,200 in 1929 when Missouri downed Kansas 7 to 0. The only single game record not in danger is the crowd of 55,000 which saw the Jayhawkers play Pennsylvania State at Franklin field, Philadelphia, in 1930.
The figure for the first three games this year total 60,423, a good start toward topping K.U.'s all-time attendance mark of 147,684 established in 1930.
Major drawing card for the crowd will be the first coaching duel between the former teammates, Sauer and Masterson. As fullback and quarterback the two played through three years of high school football at Lincoln and four more at the University of Nebraska.
The Kansas team which is expected to be the best Jayhawk club in 10 seasons is certain to help fill the stadium.
Most of the fans from Lincoln will make the trip to Lawrence to see what the Cornhuskers can do against the Jayhawker's explosive T-formation.
KU.'s record enrollment of 9,000 also will be a contributing factor toward a packed arena.
New York 'Cold, So Two Indians Come To Kansas
Wearing flowing draped saris; Mehra N. and Dina N. Darwwalla will add a touch of India to the latest in campus garb.
The sisters plan to wear their long native dress until the weather forces them into recently purchased winter coats.
It was "too cold" in New York where they originally intended going to school, so they packed their bags and arrived in Lawrence Monday night.
Mehra is a graduate of Bombay university and will work toward her master of arts degree in literature here. Dina is an undergraduate and plans to major in journalism.
Their former address was Barsi, India, but they are living now in the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. Eberhard at 1131 Kentucky.
When they discovered the New York college was not going to be satisfactory, they contacted Inder Mohan Dewan, of Kashmir, India, who is doing graduate work here in physics and chemistry. He arranged for them to enroll late.
It is becoming necessary with highway accidents so prevalent, to ask parents to share the responsibility for K.U. women, she said.
These special permissions are granted by the dean's office for special occasions which make it necessary for women to be out after regular campus hours. One extra hour may be granted on weekdays and one-half hour on Friday and Saturday.
Coeds Will Need Permit From Home To Drive Out Of City
A permit from home will be necessary for co-eds to obtain late permission involving driving in a car out of Lawrence, Dean of Women Margaret Habein announced today.
You'll Be Able To Vote On Hill
University of Kansas students who are registered voters in the state of Kansas will be able to cast their absentee ballots on the campus for the election Nov. 5, James K. Hitt, registrar, announced today.
At the request of T. R. Gerhart, Douglas county clerk. Mr. Hitt will set up an in-state absentee ballot receiving board on election day in the drill hall of the Military Science building. This will be done to avoid the confusion of a large number of students crowding the offices at the courthouse.
The polls will be open on election day from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., Mr. Hitt said.
The election board will not pass on the qualifications of any voters. Each voter will execute his own affidavit and cast his ballot. The board will forward the ballots to the clerks of the proper counties and those authorities will determine if the voter is qualified.
The board can issue ballots only to Kansens. Non-resident students desiring to vote must obtain ballots by whatever process the laws of their home states prescribe.
Sunflower Petition For A.S.C. Member Goes To Committee

The committee on Sunflower petitions was also instructed to investigate the possibility of providing student drivers to fill out the gaps in the Sunflower bus schedule.
Other officers are J. Baxter, vicechairman; Betty Guyer, secretary; Darrel Sanford, treasurer; and Tom Glascow, adviser.

Want A Steak? Just Join The Football Team
Each night after football practice, a specially prepared dinner is served in the Union to the varsity team. The training table menu is prepared by Miss Libuse Kriz, chief dietitian. At 6:45 p.m., one line in the cafeteria is closed off to other students and the team "zoes to chow."
favorite foods of the five-course dinner, according to a player poll, are clear broth and steak. No fried foods or pastries are served, Miss Kriz said, but there is plenty to make up for that.
The players have a choice of two vegetables, a pint of milk, steak, soup, baked potatoes, food salad without dressing, and dessert of fruit and ice cream.
The meal before the game is more delicate, she added, consisting of clear broth soup, tender steak, baked potatoes, mild vegetables, butter, dry toast, and hot tea.

Suicide Is 'Anti-Climax'
Washington (UP)—Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson said today that Hermann Goering's suicide was "as anti-climatic as a burlesque after a Wagnerian overture" and destroyed his opportunity to become a "German martyr-hero."
Engagement Is Revocable, But Serious-Price
"Engagements are not invivocable but should be taken seriously."
That's what Dr. E. F. Price, dean of the School of Religion, said Tuesday in the second of nine Y.M.-Y.W.C.A. sponsored Love and Marriage lectures.
The third lecture of the series will be given at 4 p.m. Tuesday in Fraser theater. The Rev. C. Fosberg Hughes, of the Plymouth Congregational church, will speak on "Marriage in the Church."
"An engagement is justified," Dr. Price said, "only after the two have had a reasonable amount of time to know each other, and each other's family in most cases."
"It is far better for both concerned to be temporarily embarrassed than to be permanently unhappy," he said.
"At the same time, if the couple feels that the engagement will not be satisfactory, they must not consider it dishonorable to break the agreement," he stated.
Actual length of time of the engagement period depends on prior courtship, he said. He referred to a suggestion of one year, made by many marriage clinics and authorities.
"Men and women often misunderstand each other's sexual interests. The engagement period should be spent in constructive activities which look toward greater fulfillment of the eventual ties between the couple."
No outsider can say that an engaged person's doing outside dating is right or wrong, he added.
He suggested two safeguards to be followed by an engaged couple in "dating out."
One: It must be done with the knowledge and approval of all parties concerned.
Two: Outside dating must not be restricted to one person.
"Marriage should only be undertaken after mutual understanding of the other sex, one's own sex, and the moral and spiritual aspects of marriage," he concluded.
