LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1937

In place and waiting for use are the boxes for contributions to the "Russell Kelly Reward Fund." These boxes have been placed in all Campus buildings to receive small contributions to a fund going to the person or persons instrumental in the construction of the building. Russell Kelly. The bursar's office is also accepting contributions to the same fund.
To Record Contributions
Money collected in these small boxes will be left as the "Russell Kiley Reward Fund" until all possible hope for a capture is gone. If the manhunt is given up, the money will be administered as a scholarship or loan fund left in Russell Kelly's name.
16 record Contributions
The money be put with the generals loan fund, it will be administered in loan channels, if it is placed in a scholarship or special loan fund, a committee composed of W.S.G.A. and M.S.C. members will be placed in charge of it.
For Use of Students
Contributions left in the burrow's office will be recorded, and, if they are not claimed, will be returned to the employer. Any recorded contribution which is not returned to the donor for reasons beyond the control of the business office, will automatically go the general "Russell Kelly Fund."
Will Distribute Boxes
Plans for disposal of the money are not made because of lack of hope for a capture, but to answer the question, "What will be done with the money if they don't get the loan?" Such interested persons have asked.
The small boxes are provided largely for the use of students who want to "chip in", but who feel unable to make a contribution large enough to justify recording. For their use, the idea of places where small change could be contributed was put into effect. The boxes were made under the supervision of C. G Bayles, superintendent of building standards. The boxes were printed by the University Daily Kansai.
Boxes will be found in the follow ing rooms of the different buildings Karnan office—Journalism build ing.

Y.W.C.A. To Hold Annual Banquet
Boys, they confess, occasionally go out with the wrong sister without ever knowing it. When Aurelite, for instance, gets a chance to make two dates for the same hour, she merely passes one along to Elka, Joy, or Jocelyn. The boy everybody is happy.
There happen to be four because Aurelita and Elsika, 19, look so much like Joy and Joeylyn, 18, that only intimates—and not all intimates—can tell one from the other. They look so much alike that the Alpha Delta Pi sorority pledged all hat at once to avoid confusion.

Tentative Program
For Conference Release
By Dean Schwegler
high school three years ago, went
two years together to southwestern
Louisiana Institute, and then were
trained for the first time in their
lives.
Last year, Aurelita taught at Morse, La, and Elsaka at Lake Arthur, 25 miles away. The distance is but neither enjoyed the separation.
When Joy and Jocelyn chose the University of Texas, the 19-year-olds came along to take some more education courses. The younger two are studying physical education.
When the four girls appeared on the compass the eye-rubbing started. Aurelta and Liska were waved aside with "we've seen you, quit kidding" when they appeared for medical examinations. Joy and Jacelyn had been a short time before!
"It's fun being twins," they all admit, but the double-twin business does complicate things a bit.
The girls have an older brother and sister.
"All I can say," said Elsika, "is that I'm sorry for the Dionne quints." .
Roosevelt Gives Views To Nation
President Uses Another Of His 'Fireside Chats' To Outline the Program Of Legislation
Washington, D. C., Oct. 12—(UCP) —President Rosevelt today summoned a special session of Congress to address the nation later, in a radio "fireside chat" to the nation, the President outlined a legislative program headed by recommendations for control of farm regulations and general regulation of hours and wages.
The President's proposal for consideration by the special session also included the bill for seven regional flood control programs similar to the Tennessee Valley Authority to insure proper land use; and reorganization of the executive branch of the federal government.
In addition to proposing the legislative program for the "immediate future," the President spoke again of the international crisis and said that world events might affect domestic plans "most seriously."
Turning directly to the Chinese-Japanese war, he said the United States' policy was to co-operate with other签约 of the nine-power pacific treaty, "to seek by agreement a form of the present situation in China."
In asking for passage of the governmental reorganization bill, Mr Roosevelt also mentioned foreign provisions indirectly, saying:
"I recognize that democratic processes are necessarily and rightly slower than dictatorial processes, but I refuse to believe that democratic process needs be dangerously slow." He continued in a lessitative program in such a manner as to indicate that he expected the special session to start work on the program as soon as it convenes, but left the impression that he did not expect each point to be enacted into the regular session beginning January 3.
Mr. toewseen said his rebbit to the west coast corvined him his program represents what "the American people immediately need," he added, that does not mean, "he added, that other legislation to which I am not referring tonight is not important for our national well-being, but other legislation can be more readily discussed at the regular session."
In the radio "freside chat" personally explaining the reasons for calling legislators back to Washington ahead of schedule, Mr. Rosevelt said impressions gained on his campaign to the top convinced him that:
The overwhelming majority of our citizens who live by agriculture are thinking very clearly how they want the government to help them in connection with the production of crops.
"They want government help in two ways-first, in the control of surpluses and, second, in the proper use of land."

The invitation was sent immediately to Frank Morrison, secretary of the federation, which is an annual convention in Denver, Colo:
