'Daddy' Flint's Portrait Will Hang In William A. White School Office
PROF. L. N. "DADDY" FLINT
A portrait of Leon N. Flint, professor of journalism and for 25 years head of the journalism department, is now being painted by Raynold J. Eastwood, associate professor of painting and drawing, and will hang in the dean's office of the William Allen White School of Journalism.
The 25 by 30-inch oil painting is the first potrait Professor Eastwood has painted of a University faculty member, he said today.
The project is being sponsored by the Kansan board and will be financed by alumni and former students of the journalism department
Professor "Daddy" Flint, for 40 years a member of the faculty, was chairman of the journalism department from 1916 until 1944, and is still teaching several courses in journalism.
He was born at Thayer, Oct. 8, 1875; was graduated from Lawrence High school in 1893, and from the University in 1897. After graduation, he taught in Kansas high schools until 1901 when he became half-owner and manager of the Manhattan Nationalist. In 1905, Professor Flint came to the University as first general secretary of the K.U. alumni association and editor of the Graduate magazine.
In 1920, he organized the high school conference for editors of high school papers, and a few years later organized the Kansas Council of Teachers of Journalism.
Professor Flint is the author of three books, "Newspaper Writing in High Schools," "The Editorial" and "Concise of the Newsroom."
He is a member of the American Association of Teachers of Journalism, American Association of Schools and Departments of Journalism, the Kansas Historical Association, Kansas Author's club, and Phi Beta Kappa.

Dying Wildcats Feature Decorations
Wildcats—dead and dying—and Jayhawks in victorious poses were scattered about lawns of organized houses today as the campus decorated for Homecoming.
A spider Jayhawk, complete with web, invites the gullible wildcat to "come into my parlor" at one fraternity.
A 30-foot Kansas football player gazes upon 11 crosses—the K-State graveyard at another fraternity house, and a Wildcat fur coat is presented to a scantily-dressed coed at a third.
Wildcats are squashed, pounded,
beaten, skinned, and mutilated by a
buzz saw in other displays.
