Congress Will Send Investigators To K.C.
Washington (UP) — The House campaign expenditures committee decided today to send two special investigators to Kansas City to investigate charges of fraud and excessive expenditures in the Democratic primary for the fifth Missouri congressional district.
We Won't Budge On Atomic Stand, U.S. Declares
Lake Success, N.Y. (UP) — The United States refused to budge an inch today on "the fundamental principles" of its plan for world atomic controls and in effect challenged Russia to suggest a better way of preventing an atomic war.
Bernard M. Baruch, American delegate on the United Nations atomic energy commission, said the Soviet proposals for outlawing atomic weapons were "a mere agreement" without teeth. Baruch also angrily attacked Henry A. Wallace for creating confusion by refusing to acknowledged publicly that he was wrong in his published statements about the American plan.
In his attack on Wallace, Baruch served notice that the U.S. would not back down from the basic objectives of the American plan and that it would consider anything short of them as evidence that the atomic commission had perpetrated "fraud on the peoples of the world."
Basically the American plan would set up a system of international inspection to prevent diversion of atomic fuels to non-peaceful uses and create a permanent atomic authority in which the big five would not have any veto power.
The Russians proposed that the nations agree by treaty to outlaw atomic weapons and destroy within three months of the treaty's ratification all stocks of atomic bombs.
Unitarian Church Becomes Men's Hall
Smith Hall, located on the corner of 12th and Vermont streets, is now one of three men's residence halls.
This building, formerly the Uitarian church, was recently purchased by the Latter Day Saints. The housing shortage presented itself and the University housing office leased the structure from the church authorities, as a temporary housing project.
Now operated under the direction of two proctors, George Worrel and John Margrave, Engineering juniors, the building provides housing and study space for 40 men.
When the church was leased, the Latter Day Saints congregation requested and was granted the privilege of naming the new hall. The name "Smith" was elected in honor of Joseph Smith, founder of the church.

'Y' Groups Meet In Union Today
Joint-projects of the two Y organizations will be discussed at the Y.M.C.A. cabinet meeting at 4:30 p.m. today in the Kansas room of the Union. Revision of the Y.M.C.A. constitution is the main topic to be discussed, according to Dean Smith, president.
Plans for the publishing of the Y Call, official paper of the two organizations, will also be dealt with. The first issue of the Y Call is expected to be ready during the week of Oct. 22nd.
Committees Appointed For Homecoming
Other subjects include joint-for- fumers, freshman activities, the World Student Service fund drive, the Sunflower Y activities, and reports on the membership drive.
'Hot Off The Wire' Come The Ball Scores
The homecoming committee has forged ahead and completed plans for appointing committees for various homecoming celebrations.
Elusive Male No Longer Exists Giving K.U. Coeds Upper Hand
Committees to be filled at the next meeting are executive, publicity, finance, publication, house decoration, distinguished guest, rally, parade Union open house, registration, K.F.-K.U. program, and the between half ceremony committee.
The lean years are over. Girls, sit back and relax. The men have returned and so have stag lines, weekend dates filled in advance, busy telephones—and men.
But it's all over now.
Back before Pearl Harbor, K.U. women were in the minority—and liked it. But came the war and the boy-girl ratio started tottering. Men reigned supreme, and girls learned that although they didn't like it, they might as well say yes if a man called at 7:20 and wanted a date at 7:30.
Peace—it's wonderful. The ratio has done an about face again, and this time the women have the upper hand. Depending upon age, size, and especially sex, the encouraging,
Later they learned to like
or discouraging, facts show that the elusive male of the past years is no longer elusive.
Men are learning that if they want a date with a special girl, they have a better chance of getting it if they call a week ahead of time.
Some boys have dates for Christmas parties already. The line forms on the right.
There are more than three men to every woman -3.21 to 1 to be exact.
The date bureau that functioned during the war years to provide women with men may find that the lonely male needs help now. Not that K.U. girls are gloating about the lopsided ratio, but it's a nice feeling to know that if one man doesn't make a date for Saturday night, 2.21 others will.
Record Enrollment In Guidance Bureau
Since Aug. 1, the bureau has registered 146 cases, about 75 per cent of them veterans.
Today's college student is finding out where he's going, according to Dr. A. H. Turney, director of the University guidance bureau.
At the present rate of enrollment that percentage would put 1,600 students through the bureau this year. This number would exceed its handling capacity of 1,200, Dr. Turney explained.
Last year the bureau handled 969 cases.
Two classes of veterans attend the bureau at the present time, he said. The veterans administration at Kansas City sends two each day, under contract, and the rest is made up of K.U. veterans who come to the bureau voluntarily.
New Bus Trip Added For Late Classes
Thirty round trips are made each day between Lawrence and Sunflower, according to J. R. McKinley, manager of the Union bus station. The first bus leaves Sunflower at 7:20 a.m., and the last bus leaves the campus at 11 p.m.
A new round trip to Sunflower village and dormitories, designed to take care of students with classes ending at 5:50 p.m., has been added to the Santa Fe Trailways bus schedule. The bus will leave the campus daily at 6:15 p.m.

'Avoid Planting Seeds Of War.' Byrnes Urges.
Paris (UP)—Secretary of State James F. Byrnes joined Premier Josef Stalin today in predicting that war is not imminent but urged all nations to avoid seeking political or economic advantages which could only result in war.
"Just because war is not imminent, we must take the greatest care not to plant the seeds of future wars," Byrnes told the American club in Paris.
He re-issued his invitation for Soviet Russia to join the United States, Britain, and France in a treaty for demilitarization of Germany to last 40 years. He said the term could be extended if the interests of peace and security require.
Taking time out from the peace conference arguments, Byrnes admitted candidly that serious differences existed among the big four. These cannot be solved by ignoring or minimizing them, he added.
Challenging Henry A. Wallace's contention that President Truman and he had departed from Franklin D. Roosevelt's foreign policy, Byrnes insisted that he was simply following the lines laid down by the late president before his death.
Byrnes devoted much of his address to an exort to reassure French public opinion which was sharply alienated by his Stuttgart address opposing the separation of the Ruhr and the Rineland from Germany. Byrnes said his plan for control of Germany should meet French fears that Germany might once again utilize the Ruhr arsenal to make war.
Byrnes said the proposed big four treaty on Germany envisaged a continued need for limited but adequate armed forces, not for occupation but for insuring compliance with the demilitarization treaty.
He reiterated his Stuttgart promise that American troops will remain in Germany as long as the occupation continues.
Student Group Plans Week On Religion

Religious activities at Sunflower will be discussed and a member will be appointed to the activities committee. Another will serve on the world student service fund drive committee.

No Clothing Shortage Here
