Lindley Speaks To NYA Heads ★ Chancellor Honored At State Meeting Held Friday In Manhattan Honored as one of the founders of the NYA, Chancellor E. H. Lindley addressed the state meeting of NYA directors at a lunchroom held in the Hotel Wareham in Manhattan Friday His subject, "Youth Problems," dealt with the number of unemployed youths in the country, and the social significance of their unemployment. Chancellor Lindley first began to take an active interest in student aid seven years ago. In the winter of 1932, he was called to Washington to serve on the National Ad- doption Board of the NYAA as a result of the work of this committee the NYA began to function in 1933. Controlling the opportunities for vocational training which the United States offers its youth with the militarization of the youth in var- chancellor Chancellor Lindley pointed out the advantages of the American system. The state-wide meeting of the NYA directors was held to discuss common problems and to revise the program for colleges and high schools. At the meeting of the college division, a resolution was passed to send a letter to Washington to try to keep the NYA separate from the regular relief program, because it would be appropriate to the operation of the NYA. A committee was appointed to draw up a uniform application blank which will serve as a model for state NYA organizations. The of the application blank by the school, however, will not be compulsory. Dean R. A. Seaton, head of the School of Engineering at Kansas State College, was elected permanent chairman of the advisory committee, and Miss Lillian Cloud, of the department of physical education at Southwestern College, was elected secretary.

Edgar has had two Model Ts himself and The tireless man from Kansas whipped the field in the Baxter mile and retired with the 2nd cup put up for competition in the event. A crowd of 16,000 cheered Cummingham's second succession of Ingham's second slowest time in the N.Y.A.C. games which had seen him win the mile five times since 1833. Cunningham, who has won this race three times in succession, pulled up the back stretch of the final lap and won going away.

All junior pre-medic students who are taking combined courses in the college and the school of medicine are urged to appear at the college office within the next ten days to check requirements. Lack of starting capacities on the car nearly caused the owners some real trouble Friday. The co-owners were in a hurry to get to their 1:30 Advise Pre-Medics To Check Courses Those students who expect to complete the college courses of their work this semester or during the summer have only a limited chance to make the changes that might be necessary. The sooner this is done, the better, because it might be necessary for enrollment changes to be made in order to qualify these people for a combined degree, "J. H. Nelson, nsw."

So far only two of the owners can drive a Model T but they have almost 18 applications from male students around the Hill Street, allowing to give free driving lessons. Maximum speed for the potential race has been estimated at almost 18 mile but the owners are hoping to break this record if they can get nervy enough to go down 14th Street The corporation "dickered" for the car for several weeks and it was only after the salesman guaranteed the ear would run up the 11th Street on a new street.

When Isabelle West, c'40, was introduced to a good-sized crowd at the annual engineering dance Friday night, she completed a treie of candidates from the West Hills sorority who have won the honor in straight years. Roberta Cook occupied the throne last year and Mary K. Dorman reigned in 1837. Significance of the selection of West lies in the fact that all three successful candidates have been hacked by Theta Tau, professor of law at Oxford University, who word has become law in the choice of queens for the Hop. The victory of Gamma Phi's canidate came as a mild upset, for talk of "passing the honor around" and the revelation Friday morning that several Theta Tau's didn't vote in the election had dropped the short, brunette West from the odds-on favorite class. West was introduced at intermission by Lester Haug, e39, president of the engineering council, and presented a miniature slide rule as a token of her reign. Clyde Smith's band played. ★ Names of Man in Course Will be Announced Later This Week Continue Exams For Air School The names of the 20 University men who will be enrolled in the civilian air training course will be known as soon as the physical examinations under the supervision of Dr. Lyle Powell, medical examiner for the Civil Aeronautics Authority, are completed. The examinations continued yesterday and it is hope that the training course will be in operation sometime this week. This course will offer 50 hours of flying instruction at the Lawrence airport and five hours of ground school work at the University including, courses in meteorology, flying rules, and air commerce regulation. Prof. Earl D. Hoy, of the department of mechanical engineering said that the ground course will start as soon as possible. The men are enrolled in the school. The eight graduate students will be enlisted for a period of 30 days this summer in the U. S. Naval and Marine Corps Reserve at Fairfax airport, Kansas City. From there they will go to Penicaua for an 11 months complete course of instruction in land and seasplanes. Eight men out of 18 passed the physical examinations yesterday at Marvin hall for flight training at the Naval air station, Pensacola, Fla. Their names will be released at a later date. Channeler E. H. Lindley formally dedicated the 27-inch William Pitt telescope at the meeting of Sigma Xi in the observatory Friday night. Chancellor Unveils New Telescope After his short address, the Chancellor unveiled a bronze tablet which will be placed in the observatory. Or it was the following: "The William Pitt 27-inch telescope was made available to the University of Kansas through the generosity and great optical skill of William Pitt, Kansas City, Mo., dedicated February 17, 1930." In his address Chancellor Lindley highly recommended William Fitt for giving his time and energy to the University. Pitt, an optician of much skill, spent a year training 27 inch mirror which is in the telescope. Dr. Hungerford, president of Sigma Ma, said that some token will be presented later to Mr. Pitt, who was unable to attend the dedication. It will probably consist of a medal in recognition of his interest in science, his research work in connection with the making of the telescope, and his gifts to the University. In addition to the Chancellor's address, Dr. Storner, head of the department of astronomy, gave a brief talk on telescopes and outlined his plans for using the University's new telescope.

'Cum Laude'in Rehearsal For Opening Monday Mrs. Allen Crafton, wife of the author; made most of their costumes which range from the elaborate gowns of the fifteenth century to the svetts costume suits of today. Perhaps the most extravagant of the collection is the furthingale worn by Mary Markham, fa'38, in the home economics scene in the second act Farthings were dressed in costumes and the dress was named after these branches used during the fifteenth century to spread out the voluminous folds of the skirt Thirty yards of violet taffeta went into this one and the bottom hoop is almost six feet wide. The stairs from the Green room are so narrow that if will be necessary to let the heavy skirt down with a pulley. Miss Markham will climb in at this point and sail out as the grand lady. The style is contrasted a few moments later by a flowing cape of the same material worn over a very, very smooth white satin bathing suit. The black chambray dress of a velvet tuxedo-gown, and a green, imitation-ermine, trimmed suit appear in the same scene. in the "Rhapsope in Blue" scene, during which Gershwir's song by the same name is played throughout, three dancers in scarlet safflash around the stage.
