Dear Sir,
I want to offer a correction of facts in the story in the Kansan October 4 relative to the death of Harry Walton.
This boy did not die on the way to the hospital. He died of a heart attack one-half hour before I was called to see him. He had been brought by his friends from the place where he collapsed to a rooming house and artificial respiration was started. In this particular instance moving the patient made no change in his course because the attack was immediately fatal.
In general, and this is a point to impress upon the public particularly at this time when so much emphasis is placed on first aid, persons who collapse should not be moved, and the first thing to do is to call a physician. While awaiting the arrival of a physician it is correct procedure to start artificial respiration when breathing has ceased.
Sincerely,
Ralph I. Canuteson, M.D.
Director, Health Service
Marine Prefers America To South Sea Islands
Life in the tropics "just ain't got it." Marine Capt. Earle K. Radford, Jr., who was graduated from the School of Business in 1940 and who returned recently to his home in Kansas City, Mo., for a 10-day leave, prefers lettuce, milk, apples, and sleep to life on a Pacific island.
Captain Radford was "pretty had lost two football games. He for renewing old acquaintances, ternity brothers in San Diego than he "ever could find in any one other spot."
Captain Radford was "pretty mad" on hearing that K.U. had lost two football games. He recalled campus days, but as for renewing old acquaintances, he has seen more of his fraternity brothers in San Diego.
Not hearing a bugle call and not wearing a pistol constantly were the best parts of being home again, Captain Radford claimed.
The few movies he saw in the Pacific area were invariably pre-1930, with Lon Chaney as the main star. Radford is looking forward to seeing movies produced in the last two years, he said.
The only popular tune he recognized was "Deep in the Heart of Texas." The Marine Corps Hymn, and sometimes patriotic music was their entire musical diet.
Pan-Hellenic Council
The annual Men's Pan-Hellenic smoker for fraternity pledges will be held Wednesday, Oct. 14, in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building, Harold McSpadden, chairman of the Pan-Hellenic social committee, announced today.
All fraternity pledges are invited to attend the smoker which affords
an opportunity for Hill freshmen to get acquainted with one another. Refreshments will be served and a short entertainment program is being prepared. McSpadden said. No upperclassmen, except members of the Pan-Hellenic council will attend.
The time for the smoker is tentatively set from 7:30 to 8:30. Other members of the committee in charge are Hub Ulrich and Don King.
Because of difficulties in finding a place in which to have the "Gingham Frolic," the party will be postponed indefinitely, Marge Rader, WSGA president announced today. The Frolic was scheduled originally for tomorrow night but because no arrangements could be made to use either the Memorial Union building or Robinson gymnasium a definite date could not be set.

Wilkins' Present Recital In Hoch
The Wilkins' Recital in Hoch auditorium drew a crowd of more than five hundred persons last night. The program was sponsored by the School of Fine Arts, Dean D. M. Swarthout, for the first time in several months, assisted the performers as accompanist.
The story at it appeared in the Sunday Kansan—
Harry Clifford Walton, college sophomore from Kansas City, Mo., died early Saturday morning from a heart attack as he was being taken to Watkins Memorial hospital.
The attack occurred as he was walking along Massachusetts street in the 1700 block with fraternity brothers Short, Bill Mowery, and Metz Wright, all of Salina. He was carried to the Beta Theta FI chapter house at 1425 Tennessee, where Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the University health service, was called.

Mrs. Marie Wilkins' selections included a group in Spanish. Among the arias she presented was "The Bell Song" from "Lakme."
Joseph Wilkins included two tenor arias among his group of selections.
The couple opened and concluded their program with duets. Their first number was a scene from Handel's "Judaes Maccabaeus," and their last was the finale of the first act from "Madame Butterfly" (Puecini).
THE BIGGEST NAME IN RADIO...
THE BIGGEST NAME IN PIPES
The only correct way to break in a pipe is to smoke it. Linkman's mechanical smoking machine Pre-Smokes every DR. GRABOW with fine tobacco.
The revue has been written in the form of a tryout, and will be called, "Meet the Talent." Last week two boys from Panama appeared. These boys could do card tricks, a disappearing act and Spanish dances. The difficulty involved in presenting the card trick and disappearing act ruled these out, but the Spanish dances were a possibility. The drawback was, however, that a girl partner was needed.
After viewing the talent presented to him last week at the Variety Show tryouts, Prof. Allen Crafton spent the weekend writing a revue that would include all the artists who were present. The revue is scheduled to be given Oct. 26 in Fraser theater. This Variety show will include music, singers and dancers, acting of dramatic and humorous type, and comedy. Many short skits will be used
Crafton Writes Script For New Variety Show
On Thursday a girl appeared who could sing Spanish songs. On Friday another girl appeared who tried out with a tap dance. It was learned that this girl had studied Spanish dances. With this material a gay, colorful Mexican street scene is being built, tentatively entitled, "South of the Border."
The greatest difficulty, Crafton reported, was finding singers with ability to act. Many of the singers are fine concert singers, but for a revue of this kind, action and movement is needed.
The tryouts last week were generally satisfactory, Crafton concluded. As was expected, there was a shortage of male actors, but the show is expected to be completed and ready for the opening night, Oct. 26.
WSGA Changes Plans For Regular Teas
The Women's Self-Governing Association has canceled the tea scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, Marybelle Long, social chairman, announced today.
Because of the difficulty in obtaining a room, teas will be given irregularly in different places. They may be given throughout the year in the dining room of the department of home economics, the English room, Kansas room, Miller and Watkins halls. The time and place of each tea will be announced.
The Gingham Frolic, sponsored by the WSGA, has been postponed until next week, Miss Long explained. The exact date will be announced later.
