Engineers Ready to Vote
The stage is almost set for the Engineering Council's annual election, George Rippey, e'40, now president, announced today.
The present Council is the first in five years to keep completely out of the red, Rippey reported. This council, in selecting candidates to fill their positions when they leave their offices at the close of school this year, nominates two candidates for the three executive positions, while the class and departmental representatives were nominated in a convocation held Monday.
Rippey said the new council will face a real task if it is to maintain the record of its predecessor.
Some of the candidates were named by petitions and other petitions naming additional candidates are still circulating, Rippey said. These petitions must be turned in to the Council by Friday, he added. The date of the election is May 9.
The Engineering Council is the student governing body of the School of Engineering and Architecture and works in conjunction with a faculty committee. This Council chooses the senior insignia, sponsors a freshman mixer each fall, directs the engineering book exchange, gives an engineering banquet and sponsors the Hobnail Hop, while on alternate years it supervises the Engineering Exposition, as it did this year.
Home Conference Set for May 3,4
Interior decorating, gardening, and home finance will be discussed in the Home Interest conference to be held Friday and Saturday. The convention is being sponsored by the departments of home economics, the department of design, and the extension division.
An illustrated lecture on "Old Glassware as a Profitable Hobby" given by Mrs. W. D. Beven, chairman of the committee on American homes of the Federated clubs, will be one of the high points of the conference. This talk will be followed by supervised tours of Spooner-Thayer museum and the department of design.
Trips to Lawrence gardens and homes will supplement a lecture given by Donald Durell, professor of botany, on "Landscaping the Home Grounds." Particular emphasis will be put on garden design.
The session will close with a tea for visitors at 4:00 p.m. Saturday in Spooner-Thayer museum.
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.
WEATHER
Clear skies and rising temperatures are forecast for eastern Kansas tomorrow. Maximum temperature for tomorrow will be 79. The cold wave is moving away from eastern Kansas.
