Z229 P UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas VOLUME XXXV Jayhawkers Play K-State Tonight Kansas Will I invade Manhattan in Effort To Re-e st a b l i s h Its Big Six Prestige NUMBER 74 Beaten by a fast-breaking Oklahoma team in its first conference game of the season, a determined band of Kansas Jayhawkers will try back in the Big Six running when it comes to winning the State five in Manhattan tonight. The Wildcats, though also defeated in their opening game against Iowa State Saturday night, have been encouraged by the facts that the Jayhawker wink was broken in a thrill-season and their home court last year, and that their play of this year's Jayhawk five has not been up to usual par. Disappointed with the play of his usual starters, Dr. Allen shucked the regular line-up yesterday afternoon in the first practice session since the Oklahoma a loss Friday night. Don Eling and Nelson Sullivan, who collected 21 points between them against the Sooners, held the record for most wins with vester Schmidt, center, and n fired Pralle and Dick Hart, guards, rounding out the rest of the combination. All-Big Six Center Is Missing For the Wildcats Coach Root will probably start Klimek and Reid, forwards; Wesche, center; Poppenhouse and Cleveland, guardis. Klimek, all-around athlete who has won letters in four sports, Reid, and Wesche have supplied most of Kansas State's power in games so far. Reid, Wesche, and Poppenhouse are all 6 feet, 4 inches in height, and the latter two, together with Klineck, comprise three of the team which started against Kansas in Manhattan last year. However, from that regular five which kept the Jayhawkers from gaining undisputed possession of the conference title, Frank Groves, all-Big Six center, is missing. Goves played the greatest game of his career when the Wildcats won 33-32, and scored 16 points against the Big Six co-champions. Tip-off Rule Is Popular Coach Root's present team is the dark horse of the conference. Playing with much the same style as that of the Oklahoma Sooners, Wildcat teams of the past have always utilized possibilities of a fast break and find the new tip-off rule much to their liking. The game tonight is very likely to develop into a free scoring affair, as the Jayhawker defense permitted Oklahoma to score 49 points, and it is usually characteristic of Kansas State to present high scoring outfits, with few thoughts given to defense. A "B" team game will follow the first game. HAY by WIRE --the scene and talked to farmers who heard and saw the plane when it fell into the heavily wooded canyon. The plane, a new-type Lockheed Zephyr, was flying east, en route to Billings from Butte. Sorry. In quoting a story, we recently were guilty of the injudicious and inexusable use of a certain term. We extend our sincere apologies to those whom this mistake may have offended. The Sophomore Hop, as far as we are able to determine, was a howling success to all concerned. Friday night Arlie Simmonds did most of the howling. If the music union puts on its spurra, the student dance managers will be doing the show without writing from playing in the Memorial Union building if it is blacklisted by the union. The Alpha Chi Omega's celebrated the birth of a new chapter at Georgia last week by wearing red and green ribbons under their pins. This bulletin-board poem gets the fur-lined bath tub of the week: An editor at the nearly gate, An editor in the painting genre His face looked worn and old; He asked the man of fate For admission to the fold "What have you done?" asked Peter "To seek admission here?" "I used to run a paper On earth for many a year. The gate swung open sharply A Rottertown touched the bell. The gate swung open simply As Peter touched the bell. "Come in and take your harp, my son." As Peter touched the son "Come in and take your harp, my son You've had enough of Hell."

Discuss Grad History President of Kansa s Alumni Talks to Local Rotary Club Chester Woodward of Topeka president of the Kansas Alumni Association, spoke to the Lawrence Rotary Club yesterday noon on the subject of the history of the University Alumni Associations in the state. In 1883, only 10 years after the first class was graduated from the University, the Alumni Association was founded. The growth of the association is marked by various achievements. In 1902, the Graduate Magazine was founded. The type was set and forms made up by Joe W. Murray, now managing editor of the Lawrence Journal-World, and the forms were taken to the press room by Prof Olin Templin, secretary of the Endowment Association, in his buggy The magazine was printed in the Journal-World print shop. Flint Was Made Secretary The expansion of the work of the association began with installation of Leon N. Flint, now head of the department of journalism, in the office of secretary. He carried on the work for about fifteen years, being succeeded by Miss Agnes Thompson, who served during the World War II. In 1924 he went to dents in the war. Alfred G. Hill took over the office in 1920, and he was succeeded by the present secretary, Fred Ellsworth. New Buildings Are Added Chancellor E. H. Lindley of the University became Chancellor at the time of Hill's secretarialship. It was at this time that a number of new buildings were added to the Campus of the University. The successful campaign which resulted in the building of the stadium, the first in North America, the Memorial Union building; and the statue of Uncle Jimmy Green, dean of the School of Law at that time, was begun in these years. There are 55 Alumni Associations active in the state at the present time, and the association has tie-ups with the 105 counties of the state. The address was broadcast over station WREN.

Hundred Get Kidnap Reward Canton, N.J., Jan. 10.-(UP) The state of New Jersey today distributed a $25,000 reward among more than one hundred persons who spun the web of circumstantial evidence that sentenced Bruno Richard Gaynor to the electric chair for the murder of Charles A. Kinderch. ir. Gov. Harold Hoffman announced the reward and then in a statement to newspapermern reiterated his belief that the crime was committed by more than one person and that Hauptmann's accomplices are still at liberty, unsought and unsuspected. "The action of the law enforcement agencies in closing the investigation with the conviction of Hauptmann is highly reprehensible," The lecture on British poetry by Helen Rhoeas, assistant professor of English, has been indefinitely postponed. The talk was formerly scheduled for tomorrow afternoon in Fraser hall. But even as the governor talked, one of the persons who shared in the $25,000 reward, Llamandus Hotmuthch, 89, veteran of the Franco-Prussian war, came forward with what he said was new evidence linking Hauptmann to the kidnap man, and that Hauptmann was provling Sourland mountain in New Jersey near the home of Lindbergh, long before the actual kidnap. He did not mention that fact during the trial, but did say he saw Hauptmann riding in a green automobile with a ladder tied to the running board a few hours before the Lindbergh child was kidnaped. The man was authorized by the New Jersey legislature in May, 1932 to be "paid to the person or persons instrumental in bringing the arrest and conviction of the kidnaper and murderer of Charles Augustus Lindbergh, jr." Cochrane Undergoes Operation Postpone Poetry Lecture Joe Cochran, c38, former managing editor of the University Daily Kansan, underwent a sinus operation yesterday morning at the Watkins Memorial hospital. Await Chancellor's Approval Approval of the new student directory manager plan, as amended by the W.S.G.A., was given last night by the Men's Student Council. All that now remains is approval by the Chancellor to make official the proposal which will make the new rules less restrictive rather than an elective office. Men's Student Council Favors New Appointive Proposal of Directory Managership Under the new system, the directory manager will be appointed by a committee composed of two representatives from both the M.S.C. and W.S.G.A. and a faculty representative, a student member, and a student member. The CSEP executive secretary will act as an advisory member of the committee. Clifford Willis, e38, and Marvin Cox, b39, were appointed as M.S.C. representatives on the joint committee by Don Vooreshe, e38, president. Amendments submitted by the W. S.G.A. were technical additions and provided as follows: That the decision of the committee be announced by May 1 preceeding the beginning of the term of office; and that the committee announce that the manager will be chosen at least two weeks before the deadline for applications. The significance of the new plan is in the possibility that women may now hold the office, whereas in the past, the manager was chosen in the men's election in the spring. Applicants will be considered on the basis of need for employment ana their ability to perform the duties of the office. Women May Hold Office As provided in the bill, M.S.C. members shall be of opposite political parties. A proposal to create a M.S.C. student loan fund was submitted to the council by C. H. Müllen, c39, tauren. Mullen described the present scholarships offered by the W.S.G.A. and pointed out that a considerable balance in the M.S.C. funds could be used for some such purpose. The matter was referred to a committee composed of Mullen, Wilbur Leon- Toard, c39, and Thomas McKale, c38. To Better Alder Facilities There is $1200 at the disposal of the department of physical education for improvement of student athletic facilities which has created no little problem in deciding its use. Dr. F. C. Allen, director of the department, favors construction of two cement tennis courts, but the court has not been built and permits permanent additions or temporary improvement of present equipment. To Better Athletic Facilities THE WEATHER A committee headed by Frank Harwi, c38, has been presenting the M.S.C. in the discussions of the matter. Harwi said last night the committee would meet with Doctor Allen soon after final examinations are completed and might possibly announce early in the second semester how the money will be spent. May Inspect Roaming House Two resolutions of commendation were passed last night by the M.S.C. A vote of thanks was extended Don Hansen, '138,remembering of the body, for his excellent contributions to M.S.C. activities. Hansen, the representative of the School of Law will retire from the council at the end of this semester, when he will receive his degree. Moe Ettenson, b38, M.S.C. secretary, read a letter from Dr. R. I. Gaunetons, chairman of the health and housing committee, acknowledging receipt of the petition from the council urging compulsory inspection of men's rooming houses.
