A full program of activities featuring participation of the University of Kansas in the development of firmer and more cultural relations with the Latin-American republics has been scheduled for the present school year. Chancellor Deane W. Malott has announced. The international program is being sponsored by the Committee on Cultural Relations with Latin America.
The latest addition to the extended program is the arrangement for Hubert Herring, Latin-American specialist for 20 years, to spend two full days on the campus in March in a series of lectures and conferences with students interested in entering fields that would take them into Pan-American commercial and educational fields. Herring, who is the author of "Good Neighbors ABC," June 1941, has just returned from a three months' sojourn in South America and Mexico. He also spent eight months of last year in South America.
Alfaro to Speak
Dr. Ricardo Alfaro, former president of Panama, and 35 years a prominent figure in the development of closer Pan-American relations, will be the opening speaker on the University of Kansas Lecture Course, on Oct. 30. His subject will be "Solidarity and Defense of the Americas."
Announcement was made just this week of the award of travel grants to two South American University students by the United States Government for study at the University of Kansas. The students selected were Senorita Cecilia de Cequeira Leite Gonecalves, of the University of Brazil, who is being sponsored by the Kansas Federation of Women's Clubs; and Marmaduke Grove, from the University of Chile, who is being

One of Seven Schools
Fees of these students will be paid by the sponsoring organizations while board and room will be provided by the fraternities, sororites and residence halls of the University. The University of Kansas is one of seven American universities to whom two Latin American scholars have been assigned. Thirty are participating in the international relations program.
Another feature in the program of inter-American relations at the University of Kansas, has been the increased enrollment in courses in Spanish, Dr. W. H. Shoemaker, chairman of the department of romance languages has announced. A marked increase in enrollment in these courses was noted last year, and Shoemaker and his associates, judging from advanced student interest indicated, are expecting a further sharp upturn during this semester. Portuguese Courses Again
Courses in Portuguese, which were restored to the curriculum the spring semester last year in response to student demand after an absence of nearly 10 years from the teaching schedule, will be continued this year. In Portuguese, special attention is being paid to the commercial angle of the language in as much as the official language of Brazil, containing approximately one-half the population of South America, is Portuguese.
WEATHER FORECASTS
Miss Mildred Seaman, assistant radio program director at the University, also reports a marked increase in listener response to the daily Spanish lessons which are offered throughout the school year over the University's radio station.
Kansas—Partly cloudy in the east considerable cloudiness in the west tonight; Thursday partly cloudy to locally cloudy; isolated showers or thundershowers in the west and south central portions; little change in temperature.
Symphony Tryouts Being Held
Tryouts for the 39th University symphony orchestral season began early Saturday and are continuing through today. The organization will have its first rehearsal tomorrow.
Karl Kuersteiner, conductor of the symphony orchestra, said today that the bulk of the tryouts were held last night. A final session will be held from 7:30 to 10 p.m. tonight. All tryouts will be conducted in room 304, Frank Strong hall.
Vacancies Filled by Tryouts
All vacancies in the 100-member organization will be filled by these tryouts. Kuersteiner cordially invited all interested in becoming members of the orchestra to see him in his office. There are some instruments available for those persons not having their own.
During the year the University organization makes a number of public appearances. The thirty-ninth annual concert, popular orchestra appearances, will be presented Dec. 4 this season. A large audience heard the orchestra's appearance in Hoch last year. The "Pathatique Symphony," by Tschaikowsky, will be featured in the Dec. 4 concert.
Officers for the organization will be elected Tuesday. The new officers will replace Jack Stephenson, president; Lois Worrel, vice-president; and Leora Adams, secretary.
Missouri — Partly cloudy tonight and Thursday; slightly warmer Thursday.
