Mullen Ties His Support To Smoke Bill
★ President of M. S. C.
- President of M. S. C.
Finally Takes Definite
Stand on Anti-Smoking
Measure
By Roscoe Born. c'41
Although he may find himself sitting alone at the Council table, C. H. Mullen, 142, P.S.G.L., president of the Men's Student Council, last night declared himself irreversibly in his institution-inspired anti-smoking bill.
Mullen's definite stand was taken with no knowledge as to how the rest of the Council will vote. He may find his own party voting against him. A League caucus has not yet been held and party leaders have refused to give any indication of the position.
Pachacamaes Quiet
Pachacamac too has remained silent. Seth B. Grey, c'40, president of the Rising Sun group, said a party caucus would be held Sunday but could say nothing of party position on the issue.
In his statement of policy, Mullen emphasized that what he said was a personal opinion. Personally, I am fully in favor of the bill and the objectives which it seeks to achieve," he said. "I will support any movement which will help make our University a better one."
Position Definite says Mullen
The bill to abolish smoking in University buildings was introduced by Mullen at the Men's Student Council meeting Monday night. Since that time the measure has been the chief object of Campus-wide talk and political action.
Position Definite says Mullen
Political big-wigs tore convenient hair when a P.S.G.L. split over the proposal seemed imminent. When the Daily Kansan asked Mullen how he would stand in the face of this split, he considered the question 15 minutes, finally said that his position was "the same as it was the night produced by this statement came from other League heads declaring that party harmony was "a maximum." With Mullen's statement last night the situation remains unchanged except that Mullen's stand is now definitely declared.
When the proposal to abolish indoor smoking was laid before the W.S.G.A. no such repercussions were felt. Though the Council seemed divided, Velma Wilson c'40 president, believed the bill would be approved when it came up Oct. 24.
Kansan Board in Favor
On Wednesday following the bill's introduction in both Councils, the Kansan board voted to support the measure in its editorial columns.
The next day, while FS.GL. leaders were still uncledicated, Chancellor Deane W. Malott declared himself heartily in favor of the proposal. "Messy hallways and a haze of cigarette smoke are bringing severe criticism to us, which can be easily avoided by the thoughtful cooperation of us all," the Chancellor said. He also told of the terrible fire hazard caused by smoking.
The first three campus organizations to come out in favor of the smoking ban announced their decisions Friday. Mortar Board, honor society for senior women, Theta Sigma Phi, honor society for women in journalism, and Sigma Delta Chi, honor fraternity for men in journalism all voted to support the measure.
Yesterday statements favorable to the anti-smoking act came from numerous campus leaders.
Even if the measure is defeated in the Councils the decision will probably not stand. Chancellor Malott has indicated that he will still have to face the problem if the Councils refuse to act. If the bill is accepted, then there remains the possibility of a referendum which would leave it entirely up to the students to decide. A referendum could be achieved by 10 per cent of the students signing.
Takes Stand

All-University Bridge Tourney Opens Oct.23
- Contest To Be Conducted Under Modified Duplicate Rules; Tournament Opens Union Intramural D
Entries for the contract bridge tournament, the first event of the Memorial Union building intramural program, to be held Oct. 23 will begin this week, Leo Johnstone, e41, president of the Student Union Activities board, announced yesterday.
The tournament will be conducted under modified duplicate bridge rules, Johnstone said. Two tables will simultaneously play identical hands. The high east-west team will win by a single hand; the set of hands will advance into the next round, until the championship team is determined.
Winford Ferry, e40, director of the tournament, indicated that this system probably would be more fair than the system of play used last year which required the playing of two out of three rubbers.
Printed rules of the tournament will be posted in the Memorial Union building and the Journalism building, it was said. Copies of the rules also will be given each contestant.
Entry blanks will be obtainable during the week in the union activities room in the basement of the Memorial Union building or at the lounge. The blanks also will be sent to all organized houses.
The deadline for entries will be 12 o'clock noon on Saturday, Oct. 21. Pairings will be announced in Sunday's edition of the Kansan.
Last year, 32 teams, each composed of two persons, entered the tournament.
Change Ruling On Incompletes
Incompletes in courses taken during the spring semester and summer of 1339 must be made up by a professor according to Dean Paul B Lawson.
This is a change in procedure regarding incompletes, since a full semester has previously been allowed for makeup. The amount of work to be made up varies from single to work covering several weeks.
In commenting on the change Dean Lawson said that it was necessary to prevent a pile-up of makeup tests and papers at the end of the semester. Such a practice, he said, could cause further dents. This change will require that all work be made up before fina examinations begin.
Freshman women seek nomination for either vice-president or secretary of the freshman class must submit their applications to the committee in the Memorial Union building Thursday at 4:30 or 7 p.m. Members of the committee to consider applications are Velma Wilson, c'40, Marine Mong, c'40, Marine Gray, c'40, Mary Garrison, c'40, and Agnes Mumert, c'40.

Student Leaders' Statements Favor Smoking Ban
- Werner Sayes Question Not One of 'To Smoke or Not to Smoke' But Matter of Safety and Cleanliness
Support for the proposed ban on student smoking appeared to be mounting last night as more campus leaders came out in favor of the policy.
From Henry Werner, men's student adviser, came the following statement:
"I think that the front door and reception room of the University ought to be kept clean, free from cigarette butts, odor of smoke, and the loose atmosphere that goes with a lounging place. This is in line with what we've learned about smoking in the country of any note. And I say this as one who smokes.
"It is not a question of 'to smoke' or not to smoke"—it is a question of taking enough pride in the appearance of our reception hall so that we wouldn't be ashamed to bring any visitor in. Such is not the case right now, but maybe it's the student on the campus will dislocate."
**Student Leaders Favor Bill**
Student leaders are also lining up in favor of the bill. The Kansas obtained the following statements yesterday:
Eddie Parks, c'40, president of the Y.W.C.A.: "The problem is one of the students realizing that the public safety should overrule the selfish considerations of those who insist smoking in non-fireproof buildings."
Barbara Edmonds, c'40, president of Women's Pan Hellenic Council: "I think the bill is a good idea. However, I think there should be some room where students could go to smoke."
Creates Fire Hazard Says Rhule
Dan Rhule, ed'40, president of Men's Pan Hellenic Council: "I have no objection to smoking on the campus, but I am sure all students will agree that the practice does create a fire hazard in the buildings." Leo Johnstone, e40, president of Student Union Activities committee "As a method of reducing fire-haze on the Campus, the no-smoking rule is still full, so we never since there are buildings that need proof. I believe that these building should not be included in the smokin' ban."
New Laboratories Receive Equipment
Equipment valued at $3,000 is being in stalled in the laboratories of the new engineering research station. The installation is in charge of Hayden Zimmerman, industrial research fellow.
The machinery is donated to the station by the Tri-State coal producers for the purpose of carrying on experiments to determine the efficiency of utilization of coal. Experiments are to be run to find which Kansas coals are the best to use in medium size distillation. Some work will also be done on the best method of processing coal.
After completion of the experiments the equipment will become the property of the research station and the School of Engineering and Architecture. It includes all the machinery necessary for the proximate and ultimate analysis of fuels.
This research is to be the first project of the Kansas engineering research station. The bureau was established this year by the University. Its purpose is to carry out research on various products of an engineering nature and to publish results obtained. It will give to the producers, that have their products tested and passed satisfactorily, the indorsement of the research station and the University.
