Jumps For His Grub All Ups and Downs
"Like dropping in a fast elevator" is the way Lieut. Robert Cory, this University's representative in the newest branch of the nation's armed forces, the Parachute Corps, describes the sensation felt by the parachuter when engaged in his trade.

"Like dropping in a fact elevator" is the way Lieutenant Robert Cory, this University's representative in the newest branch of the nation's armed forces, the parachute corps, describes the sensation felt by the parachuter when engaged in his trade.
Cory, a graduate of this University in 1937, is at present stationed in Panama. The young soldier-jumper is a member of the 501st Parachute Corps, first organization of its kind in this country.
The lieutenant received his training at Fort Benning, Ga., where he was acquainted with Lt. Walter S. Osipoff, who gained national fame during maneuvers when his open parachute became entangled with the
tail of his plane leaving him dangling in the air, just after he had jumped. A thrilling rescue by air was necessary.
Cory in describing his first jump said: "There I was, the door was open, and the ground was a long way off. I just jumped." He said that the boots of the officers were not often necessary as "persuaders" for the rookies attempting their first jumps.
During Cory's training period at Fort Benning only a single fatal accident occurred among the trainees. The lieutenant's only injury was a torn ligament suffered in landing.
Lieutenant Cory's parents reside in Lawrence, and during the past summer he visited with them while on furlough from Fort Benning shortly before he departed for Panama.
Taft's Book Sells In Every State
Sales to virtually every state in the country of Robert Taft's University history, "Across the Years on Mount Oread," were reported today by Raymond Nichols, executive secretary to the Chancellor.
Contained in the book is a collection of photographs representing years of collecting on the part of Professor Taft.
"The book has been very well received by its purchasers," Nichols said. He stated that much of the book's popularity is due to the informal style in which it was written. Its lively conversational tone prevents the dryness found too often in historical matter.
Scouts to be Guests at Saturday's Game
Nichols also pointed out that the cover is of a high-grade cloth binding, durable and attractive. It is dark blue in color, with red and gold lettering.
The book can be purchased at either the alumni or Chancellor's office for two dollars. It will be mailed to customers at no extra cost, if desired.
Earl Falkenstein, secretary of the University of Kansas athletic association, announced today that boy and girl Scouts of this region will be guests of the association at Saturday's opening home football game between the Jayhawkers and Washington University of St. Louis.
Falkenstein said that the advance ticket sale was mostly on season tickets. He indicated that if the weather is favorable a good gate receipt is expected Saturday.
Officials of the athletic board have made arrangements whereby soldiers and sailors in uniform will be admitted to the game for 50 cents. Officials explained, however, that they did not expect many service men to attend as Fort Riley is too far away, and because of the fluctuating personnel at Ft. Leavenworth, a reception center and staff school of the United States Army.
Reserved seat tickets for the game are $1.65. General admission tickets for the north bowl will be placed on sale the day before the game for 75 cents. High school students will be admitted for 50 cents and major high students for 25 cents.
The K.U. band will be on hand to furnish music before the game and at the half.
The game will be broadcast over the facilities of station KFKU.
Mr. Kirkland is director of the Kirkland School of Art in Denver and an instructor in the extension division of the University of Colorado. He is also a member of the Kansas City Art Institute.
Kirkland Paintings Shown at Museum
Starting today and continuing throughout the month of October, a group of water color paintings by Vance H. Kirkland of Denver will be on exhibition at Spooner- Thayer museum.
Mr. Kirkland's paintings, which were secured through the efforts of the University art department, may be seen on the second floor of the museum. All are the property of Mr. Kirkland except "Fog in The Rockies," which was loaned for exhibition by the Madera School, Washington, D.C.
Mr. Kirkland is an Ohio painter, a graduate of the Cleveland School of Art, and has studied in Spain, Italy, France and England.
YM-YW Retreat Makes Plans, Elects Chairmen
