Jayhawks To Invade Manhattan Tonight
★ Kansas Hopes To Defeat Wildcats Second Time; Must Win To Stay in Title Race; Corlis Will Be Acting Captain For Sixth Time
A fighting Kansas basketball team will invade Manhattan tonight for a return engagement with Kansas State of the cage thriller which the two teams played at Lawrence last week.
LAWRENCE. KANSAS. FRIDAY. JANUARY 20. 1939
The Jayhawkers won that first game by the narrow margin of 33-29 and will have to down the Wildcats again tonight if
they intend to stay in the Big Six race. Kansas enters the game with a record of two games won and two lost in conference play.
Allen To Start Same Team
Wednesday night, Dr. F. C. Allen's team handed Missouri its first conference defeat. The Jayhawkers still were not hitting their shots as they should, but won the game mainly on fight. Kansas outscrapped the Tigers and emerged victorious 37-32.
Dr. Allen will start the same quintet tonight which started against Missouri. It includes three sophomores, one junior and one senior. The lone senior is Lyman Corlis, who will be acting captain for the sixth consecutive game. Corlis has been playing great ball.
One of the big stars for Kansas in its victory over Missouri was John Kline, six feet three inch sophomore guard. Kline, a rugged boy from Hutchinson, was what the doctor ordered on rebounds. He also so'd five points and played very well on defense.
Howard Engleman, sophomore forward, led the Jayhawk scoring against Missouri with nine points. Engleman has an average of eleven points a game in conference play and should give Wildcat guards trouble.
Engleman Is High Scorer
The Kansas defense will have a real problem on its hands in trying to stop Homer Wesche, tall Kansas State center, and Ervin Reid, Wildcat forward. Wesche is the leading Bix Six scorer with an average of 14 points a game and Reid usually scores around ten points a game.

ON THE SHIN
by jimmy robertson
Fred Lake, Max Louk, and "Country Boy" Cheatham are now engaged in a bit of a race for the affections of Betty Patton. With spring and warmer weather in the offing, to the man in this corner it looks like "Country Boy" when he takes on that long underwear he's been inhabiting since the first frost and get down to some serious running.
I wonder if Dave Angeving got in touch with the Haskell Indians who were on the Campus in tribal regalia yesterday afternoon to ballyhoo their boxing matches. Dave should have been on hand to make them an offer, since he seems to be one of the "antis" who would rather take our country into hand to the Indians it. On second thought, I am surprised that he didn't protest the manly art of self defense at Haskell on the grounds that it was a case of unwarranted belligerency among students.
I'm good and mad at the Pi Phi's for not inviting me to their old party tomorrow night. They've been sore at me ever since last fall when they caught me unbaiting the mouse traps they had set in our front yard and of rises to be among the select five or six boys on the Fill who didn't get invited.
Donixon, instructor in speech and painting of scenery at Fraser theayta, has been rolling about these parts lately on a pair of cowboy "pokes"<sup>2</sup> that's slanguage for boots. It's just one man's way of getting even with girls who wear ski suits.

Biennial Report Lists Urgent Building Needs
- Many Departments Are Greatly Overcrowded and Some Are Stationed In Temporary Quarters
Urgent building needs of the University were issued yesterday in booklet form. Included was a statement of a proposed 10-year building program which was prepared by request of the State Board of Regents. The booklet is reprinted from the thirty-seventh biennial report of the University.
The report said: "Foremost among the desired additional buildings is a laboratory building for pharmacy and the medical sciences. At present, pharmacy is housed in the east end of the Bailey Chemical laboratories. The present quarters are badly congested, and it is felt that more urgent action must be taken on the unfavorable rating of the school in the recent inspection by the American Council on Pharmaceutical Education.
"The University School of Pharmacy which is now recognized as the only legal source of supply in Kansas, must make a provision for larger enrollment in the near future. The surplus in pharmacists' stock would not have resulted in state law went into effect in 1934 has now been absorbed."
"With the exception of bacteriology, which is well located, although somewhat crowded, on the top floor of new Snow Hall, the medical sciences are located in temporary rooms, originally intended for such work.
Medical School Graded Low
"The inspection of the School of Medicine a year ago by the Council on Medical Education of the American Medical Association graded the Lawrence division low on physical facilities.
In addition the reports indicate that there is a definite need for an extension to the library stack. The report suggests that the library stack at the rear of Watson Library should be extended 70 feet to the west, in conformity with the original building plans.
Also a real need exists for a building to house the departments of geology, chemical engineering, and petroleum engineering, the geological survey, and the testing laboratories of the department of civil engineering and applied mechanics. The report says that there are two reasons for the building: There is a need to centralize the Campus services most interested in the industrial development of the state. It is necessary to provide adequate quarters for these activities, both for teaching and research. Teaching is greatly hampered and research is virtually impossible under present conditions.
The completion of Dyche Museum at the earliest possible date is highly

To ease worry-weary freshmen, who soon must face their first final week, Dr. Beulah Morrison, professor of psychology, yesterday afternoon addressed the freshman commissions of the Y.M.C.A. and W.Y.C.A. organizations, givin "Helpful Hints to Tired Students."
Approach Finals Light Heartedly
Doctor Morrison suggested that, while in the actual process of writing the examination, the student take sufficient time to organize his material with respect to the problem in its precise presentation. She also suggested that students have in full command the grammatical points learned in rhetoric and composition courses.
Speaking from the point of view of a student, an instructor, and a psychologist, Doctor Morrison stressed living and working regularly, budgeting time in relation to tasks elicited by students who are in expected of students, and independently organizing one's own ideas.
Independent Students Elect Fockele President
Carelessly Thrown Cigarette Ignites Fraser Awning
Immediate action of Clarence McCabe, 39, and Mr. F. B. Earlenbach, janitor, saved Fraser hall from possible damage yesterday afternoon when a cigarette stub carelessly thrown from a second floor window lift on an awning outside the Bureau of Correspondence Study and ignited it.
Upon returning to the office after lunch hour, members of the staff smelled smoke, located the blaze, and called McCabe and the janitor. Using a ladder and a fire extinguisher from inside the office, they dismantled the blaze. Only slight damage was done to the hearing.

Students and faculty said: "We of City College, who serve scholarship, must understand the anguish suffered by the faculty and scholars of German universities. They have our sincere sympathy."
New York City.—(AICP) The College of the City of New York has gone into mourning over the death of a former CIA officer to search for truth in Nazi Germany.

"The problem child of the first half of the 20th century is not labor but the employer, the owner, or the manager," he said. "The problem is to keep him at work, to conserve his resources, and to allow the same time to keep him honest."
He added that "so long as the bill, of rights exists, it will insure justice for Americans in a changing world." White, publisher of the Emporia (Kansas) Gazette, founded the keynote of the 31st annual meeting of the California newspaper publishers association. He spoke at a service club meeting on "Democracy in a Changing World."

explained why the brace is neces sary.
"We put this on "Caps" *n* knee to give added strength when the leg is straightened out. As long as he has his knee bent there is no danger of his knee slipping out of joint. But the minute he straightens his knee out and there is any pressure applied there is liable to be trouble. So we put this steel brace on his knee to keep it straight, and the knee ligament when the leg is straight, and the tape is merely to hold it in place," Dean added.
"Be sure and tell everybody," Miller requested, "that my knee is not bothering me any more. I enrolled in here to play some basketball and I intend to do so, bad knee or no bad knee. I admit that I get a little tired in a game when I have to hobble around on one knee, but as soon as I get used to it will be as good as ever," he concluded.
"How long do you think it will be before Miller will be able to discard the brace?" we asked Nesmith. "Well, it's really hard to say. Theoristically as soon as the ligament becomes strong enough to hold the knee in place. We don't know when that will be."

Five Re-elected
The new executive council and the president were given the power to draft a new constitution for the organization and to speed plans for the national LSA. convention here March 31 and April 1.
Five members of the former council which is now superseded by the new group, were members of the original executive organization.
Susan Maloney, c. 29, retiring president, and Tom Reames, c. 40, business manager of the former organi-
zation of the 10 nex council members.

The meeting was called Monday night by Miss Maloney, climaxing three days of dissention in the group. Leading up to the reorganization meeting, Miss Maloney refused a request Saturday by the old council for her resignation. Then followed statements and counter-state nents—ending with Miss Maloney's announcement of last night's meeting, at which, she said, she would not be a candidate for re-election to the presidency she has held since the organization was formed last year.
Postlethwaite Presided
Ken Postlethwaite, c'39, presided upon request of Miss Maloney.
After a stormy start which saw the group squabbling over methods of election of the new officers, "it's meeting ended in harmony with the executive council the two defeated candidates for president.
When a motion to elect a new council of 10 members had been approved, the group voted to elect a president first. This followed more than an hour's discussion from the chair, who helped organize, plans for the new executive set-up and proposed methods for choosing the new officers. Chairs were brought into the Memorial Union ballroom for the meet-
