'Form' Players Note:
Sour Owl's Kansas Relays Edition Is On Its Mark
If Hill athletes need a few tips on keeping in "shape" for the coming relays, they can pick up some pointers in good "form" from the pictures of 15 Campus beauty queens appearing at the Souri Owl on sale tomorrow.
Besides the usual sections of jokes and stories, 10 pages of pictures devoted to feminine groce add extra flair. The prompts were taken while the snapshots were taken.
The eighth issue of the humor magazine hurdles ahead of the track men as it jumps the gun with the title, "The Sour Owl Kansas Relays."
Swim Officials To Meet Here
The Owl scores its first victory as it crosses the tape with a picture of a girl broad jumping. The caption below reads, "Now Watch the Broad Jump." It tallies again with the picture of a girl jumping. Track men eagerly look on. The caption says, "Studying the Racing Form."

By Jim Bell, c'40 Kansan Sports Editor
The interscholastic meet, which boasts an entry list of 2,700 high school hopefuls, will get underway at 9:30 tomorrow morning with the first heat of the class B 100 yard dash.
A record number of entries in the two famous cinder meets were getting settled this afternoon in Mt. Oread fraternity and boarding houses and wondering about the weather. At noon today, the sky looked as though it might cooperate with the weatherman's predictions and turn clear.
The high school meet will have 200 more competitors this year than ever before. Although the number of schools entered, 182, is exactly the same as last year's record breaking entry, the size of almost every school's representation has increased.
The complete entry list includes 19 universities, 30 colleges, 13 junior colleges, and 182 high schools.
Record High List
Ranking favorites in the class A high school meet this year are Wichita East and Topeka. Wichita has already won the Anthony and Sterling high schools and has formed credibly in her dual meets. Class B Champs Are Back
Mt. Hope and Kiowa represent the top class in the B division. Kiowa is back to defend the crown it has won for the past two years. Mt. Hope, not Kiowa, is the favorite for victory because of its victory over Kiowa in the Sterling RELays.

dustry and is responsible for Vacuum company at St. Louis.
The Queen will present medals and cups to winning performers and teams as the events are decided.
How shall I get a job? That question Robert E. Day, director of placement at Northwestern University, will attempt to answer for University tenons at 7:30 in Fraser theater.
★ Robt Day, a Personnel Expert, Speaks on Phases Of Job Getting in Fraser Theater
Miss Marin, who successfully kills a teenager's year's queen, steps a notch up the ladder of royal succession in gaining the honor. She was an attendance, along with Alain Chi, Patti Payne at the 1938 track and field.
In an address entitled, "How to Find a Payroll and Get Your Name on It," Day will offer scientific for those seeking employment
The speaker was chosen by the senior employment committee as an expert in the job seeking line to enlighten students on how to obtain employment after college. John Lintner, chairman of that committee, in speaking of the choice said, "Day is an authority in this line and should give valuable suggestions to those who attend the lecture."
To Answer Questions
Detailed analysis will be given the problem of choosing an occupation. This phase Day believes should be of particular interest to freshmen and sophomore students. Questions here will relate directly to the individual as to likes, dislikes, qualifications, etc.
Besides the main topic, his speech will include also two preliminary topics of fundamental importance. In these topics he will answer such questions as: What are the chances of college graduates? What types of jobs do they usually want and what do they get? What is the relation of the job to the qualifications of the questions and many more Day will give valuable information on.
Occupation Is Problem.
Day's lecture will be primarily for the benefit of non-specialized
1 graduating students but should be of
graduating students but should be of interest and value to all. Many graduates who have specialized in one field are faced with the problem of unemployment in that field, thus making them reluctant to meet How to meet this problem will also be included in a discussion following the lecture.
Seniors Sponsor Talk
The speaker has had experience on both sides of the problem. After graduation, he was employed in the personnel department at Northwestern. The following year, 1830, he began three years work for the Kellogg Company, handling internal and external students' problems, and employers problems as well should be of particular value.

Sixty Observe Peace Day
- Paul Moritz, H. L. Smith Address Group at Noon-day Fast
National Peace Day was observed on the Campus today in the form of a noonday fast in the Pine room. Sixty persons heard an oration by Paul Moritz, c30, "Here We Are Again," and an informal talk by David Cairns, assistant professor of journalism, on Recent Propaganda."
"Will we forget Hitler in the next 20 years as we have forgotten the Kaiser?" he asked.
Moritz said that this country is in a similar situation to that in 1917. The blam for the present conflicts he placed on present-day leaders.
"Fropgarda," Professor Smith said, "is a form of slow poison, not half so quick acting as arsenic, but as deadly.
"As long as there is prejudice, racial or economic, there is food for this propaganda, and the only salivation from war is the recognition that we have done before the poison gets the best of us," the journalism professor declared.
Smith said that it takes only the right kind of propagandist to enlist the majority of the people. He advised his audience to beware of such statements as "according to a statement of a government official" when reading foreign news stories, to watch where the story originated for stories called for stories name calling and stereotyped phrases.
"There is no stronger feeling of neutrality today than there was in 1916, and it did not keep us out of war," he pointed out.
A collection of $10 was taken, the money that the group would have spent on lunch, to be sent to aid the Spanish war refuges.
Mano Stukley read some selections from a book, "Hey, Yellowbacks," by Ernest L. Meyer.

Election Polls Close at 5; See Average Vote
- Ballots Total 1313 at
2:30 as Policymakers Have
'Carnival' Day; Showers
Fall Occasionally
By Reginald Buxton, c'40 Kansan Political Writer
Climaxing a short but bitterly fought campaign, 1,313 University men had cast their ballots at 2:30 this afternoon in what appears to be an average election for the men's spring election.
Polls    t" o clock this morning and win close m. Political barkers, taxis carrying voters to the polls, and a motorized public address system were out with the crack of a gun, creating a loud spin wipe a cool, clouded day that saw occasional showers.
The vote, by schools, at 2.30 was:
300; Business, 190; Graduate,
666; Medicine, 567 Law, 70; Fine
Arts, 38, and Education, 23.
Party workers rushed feverishly
about the Campus this morning
tearing down opposition posters and
putting up others. Humor brightened
the otherwise serious business of
gaining prominence in propaganda when Monte Merkel, pondering Pachacamaca placedlakson posters in Watson library and remained quiet about the threat to tear them down. Merkel advised the offender, "I wouldn't tear those down; I put them up." The posters remained up.
The usual political shenanigans prevailed with both parties sending opposition voters "down to the stadium" for their voting permits and advising them to "drop their ballots at Dyke museum." Complaints have been filed against the PSCGL fraction because they contended they were not being allowed a fair share in the conduction of the election.
The campaign that is being elitized today has proved to be one of the driest if not driest of any election in recent years. Accusations and counter-accusations have been circulated about the Campus in the form of handbills. Candidates from both major parties have claimed allegiance to the Independent Student Association as though being an independent were a qualification for office.
on the M.S.C. presidency ballot three names appear—Oakson, Ramay, and Mullen—making it possible to use the proportional representation plan for this office for the first time in Hill election history. The former governor will sit on the Council next year—the winner as president and the runner-up as representative.
Lawson Speaks At High School
