BOOK HAS SEEN---printed by a Lawrence printing shop. Delivery of the directory was held up "because of the scarcity of typesetters."
Since that time the student government organizations have controlled the publication except for one year, 1927-28. When the fall semester started in 1927, it looke das if even the M.S.C. would not be able financially to back the directory. The Kansan saw an opportunity to boost circulation and reputation—and took it.
"The project of printing the directory will cost the Kansan several hundred dollars," said Alfred Graves, then Kansan business adviser, "we feel that the service to the University will be worth the cost." The Kansan published the directory in a tabloid section before the end of September that year.
After that the M.S.C. again sponsored the directory. Now, the catalog is self-supporting to the extent that its editor and publicity representatives get paid by selling advertising for their services, and the book can be distributed to student free of charge.
R.A.F. CONTINUES---bossy gave a farewell party for Molotov.
The British bombers attacked Schlesischer station in central Berlin from which Molotov had been expected to depart for Moscow. Molotov actually left this morning from Anhalter station.
There appeared little doubt that the British were attempting to give Molotov an eyewitness demonstration of their bombing prowess. Last night's attack on Berlin seemed to fit in with the raid on Danzig just before Molotov was due there and the attack on Munich at the hour Hitler was addressing his old party comrades there.
The German high command minimized the British raid on Berlin, claiming that planes were unable to penetrate the center of the city because of intensity of anti-aircraft fire and were forced to drop their

The Italians admitted widespread attacks by the British air arm, mentioning specifically Cretone in Calabria and Valona and Durazzo, important ports in Albania.
The Italians claimed only minor success in the war with Greece, asserting that some favorable action had occurred at the Kalibaki crossroads which was the high water mark of their original thrust into Epirus. However, they tacitly admitted they still were on the defensive in the Koritza region, asserting that Greek attacks in the vicinity of Lake Prespa had been repulsed.

The Greeks felt that their successes would encourage Jugoslavia in resisting Axis demands. They said new Italian forces had made an advance of 3 and one-half miles in the Mesaria region of the Pindus mountains but were thrown back when they ran into fire from Greek mountain batteries.
Athens claimed that Greek troops had moved into Albania and occupied important heights in the Pindus mountains. It said the Albanian coast and the port of Bari in Italy had been heavily bombed.
The Greeks estimated that about 1,000 Italians had been killed in the first 18 days of the war and several thousand captured.
Rumania's dictator, General Ion Antonescu, arrived in Rome where he was greeted by Premier Benito Mussolini and Foreign Minister Count Galeazzo Ciano.
The Vichy government of France announced a protest to the German armistice commission against deportation of French citizens from Lorraine. The Germans were said to be shipping Frenchmen out of the province at the rate of five to seven trainloads a day, giving them a choice of going to Poland or France.
Mexican sources reported that the United States and Mexico had signed an agreement giving the United States air and naval bases in Mexico.

"I didn't give him any encouragement," the Sooner basketball coach said today. "In fact, I was just as surprised as the newspapers were when I learned that he was coming to Oklahoma."
"Bruce Draks never contacted me after I wrote him last summer that I had decided to go to Kansas State," Tucker said. "There was no high pressure."
Tucker's eligibility status will be discussed tomorrow at a meeting of the Oklahoma University Athletic Council.
