Propose New Hill Landscape May Get Face Lifted
Bv MARYNELL DYATT
If present suggestions go through, Jayhawk Drive, main artery of traffic down the middle of the campus, probably will look decidedly different than in the picture above. The drive may be closed to traffic and changed into an avenue of trees and grass, under one proposal of a new long-range landscape program which is now underway at the University.
Plans are that a circle drive will be constructed to encircle the campus on the outside and that all buildings will be approached by means of short service roads which would run from the encircling drive to the rear of each building.
Two reasons for the proposed change are the following: It will do away with traffic hazards now caused by a busy street in the middle of the

Chancellor Deane W.

The landscape architect is W. D. Durell, instructor in botany. Landscape gardener is George M. Fisher.
The long-range program has been planned to beautify the campus. Other aims of the project, which will be followed closely in a gen-

"When I think about my daddy playing football," Jimmy told a relative recently, "what I want most of all would be a football from where daddy went to college."
So, come Christmas time, Jimmy will be getting a letter from his mailman . . . a fat, pigskin letter with his name painted on it in white, and a couple of stamps at one end.
