Typhoid---has returned to school within the past week. Shifrin was admitted to the hospital on April 17, and Fields contracted the fever on May 1.
Although their conditions are satisfactory, both Shifrin and Fields will be out of school for the rest of the semester. Dr. R. I. Canutones, director of the student health service, reported today. "Typhoid patients run a high fever for three weeks and then another six or eight weeks must elapse before they are well enough to leave their beds," he said.
Doctor Canuteson deplored the fact that Kansas had no requirements for immunization or vaccination against any disease.
The strains used in the bacteriology laboratory are supposed to be avirulent, but the infected students all lived in different houses, ate at different places, and apparently had no contact with the disease except in the laboratory.
Dr. Sherwood said that this was the first instance in 30 years where students have contracted a fever in the laboratory. He believed that the three men had been careless in taking care of themselves after handling the cultures.
Teke's To Get---the fraternity is settled in its Tennessee street home.
Oliver Simmons (Illinois University), Orman Wannamaker, '39 James Logan (Washington University), Everett Tenbrook (Illinois University), and Lawrence Staple (Ohio State) were the alumni selecting the house for the University "Tekes."
Although the Acacia house has been definitely selected, complete arrangements have not been made as to whether the place will be rented or purchased. Mrs. J. E. Hut of Kansas City, Mo., is the owner of the property.
The local group is known as Eta colony of Tau Kappa Epsilon. This chapter was first located on the campus of the University of Chicago, but it was one of the 20 national Greek letter organizations that withdrew in 1932 when they had difficulties with the administration.
The Chicago chapter will be transferred here sometime next fall after

MacCann, Fox---made from homespun rags would make it plausible that Whittier's trousers were used, authorities feel.
The poetry contest was begun in 1927 with the establishment of a fund in honor of the late William Herbert Carruth, well-known poet and graduate of the University in 1880. He was for 30 years head of the German department and at one time served as vice-chancellor.
Police Still--made from homespun rags would make it plausible that Whittier's trousers were used, authorities feel.
30 years old, 5 feet 7 inches in height, unmasked, cleanshaven and wearing a dark suit, took the money from the box office while he covered five persons with a revolver.
The holdup took place about 10 p.m., just after Miss Peggy Davis had closed the box office. The loss, which consisted of receipts from the Granada and Patee theaters for Saturday and Sunday, is covered by insurance.
First encountering Miss Davis, as she was going into the office, and then Ray Holmes, manager of the theater, the robber forced the two at the point of his revolver to open safe in the box office and to hand over the money in a paper bag which he provided. During the stick-up, the bandit also ordered three occupants of the lobby, one of which was G. M. Osgood, gr, to keep quiet.
He threatened Holmes several times during the holdup as the manager attempted to bluff him. He apparently escaped through the canopied bus drive to the alley where his car was parked.
Miss Davis remembered selling the bandit a ticket earlier in the evening.
Holmes, accompanied by members of the sheriff's staff, went to Kansas City Monday to inspect police photos but the man was not identified.
Brown Paroled; Palmer's Trial Slated Tomorrow
Reuben Brown, c42, 21-year-old former house-man at the Kappa Kappa Gamma house, pleaded guilty to receiving stolen property before Judge Hugh Means in yesterday's session of Douglas county district court and was paroled.
Brown faced charges of burglary in connection with a theft at the Holyfield Music store but was paroled from the charge by Judge Means after he entered a plea of guilty to receiving stolen property yesterday afternoon.
Lewis Troy plead guilty to his charge of second degree manslaughter yesterday and received a sentence of 3 to 5 years in the state penitentiary from Judge Means. Troy was charged with the manslaughter count in connection with the death of Earl H. Harris, who was killed in Troy's house last February 20.
The trial of Robert Palmer, former graduate student of the University, is scheduled for tomorrow. Palmer is charged with possession of intoxicating liquor.
Poets Trousers Thought Used In Rugs on Display
Troussers of the poet, John Greenleaf Whittier, may be in the center of two stair carpets which are part of a display of hooked rugs in Spooner-Thayer museum.
Two carpets were made by Whittier's sister. The fact that they were

Support Comes From State
The University of Kansas receives virtually no support from the Federal Government. The entire support of the R.O.T.C. is paid by the Government, and $1,000 of the cost of the home economics department comes from Federal funds. All other funds come either from state legislative appropriations, students fees, or earning of auxiliary departments.
Athletics and physical education take a healthy place in the program of interests at the University. Kansas won the Big Six championship in 1930, tied for second in the standing in 1932, was third in 1935 and 1937, and has had a fighting team in the field every year. In basketball the K.U. team has been champion of its conference seven times in the past 10 years. In track the Jayhawkers consistently have had great stars such as Bausch and Cunningham.
