8 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 6 The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas VOLUME XXXV Rumored Jap Raid Panics Chinese Fear of An Air Attack Causes Gas Masks To Be Confiscated for Military Use Nanking, via Shanghai, Sept. 22 (wednesday).—(UP) Reported rumors that Japan's mighty air fleet which threatened to destroy this capital by aerial bombardment, planned to wipe out the civilian and military population with a gas attack spread among thousands of Chinese today. Fear of a gas attack increased when the Chinese military command ordered gas masks confiscated over the territory for military purposes. The rumors increased tension. Inhabitants have been fearfully awaits the threatened Japanese raid for nearly ten days. Hundreds of coolies worked throughout the night tearing up sidewalks in the business section to construct ductures affording at least half the city's population somesemblance of shelter if the great Japanese air armada carries out its threat to blow Nanking off the map. Military experts said that many on the dugouts were death traps, and pointed out that collapsing shelters killed as many Chinese as the Japanese raiders did yesterday in their city, "preliminary" raid on the city. Drug stores were besieged by Chinese and foreigners, seeking to purchase makeshift gauze "masks" on which an anti-gas preparation is poured. The city's supply of the needed chemicals, which are effective against gas for only 15 minutes is nearly exhausted. Tension in the foreign colonies was increased by a rising resentment against Americans because of the evacuation of the United States embassy to the gunboat Luzon, anchored on the Yamate river. The handful remaining in the city were subjected to a series of near-insults, not only by the Chinese but by other foreign nationals.

C., Sept. 21.—(UAP)—The United States has bluntly warned Japan that her proposed masked bombing of Nanking, capital of the Chinese central government, would be a violation of the United Nations law and could ardize diplomatic relations between the United States and Japan, Secretary of State Cordell Hull revealed tonight. on the SHIN by Virgil Mitchell In an effort to win back to goodwill of the Pi Fli's and the Beta's we give you this morning the candid opinion and descriptive prowess of that trumpet-tootin' master of ceremonies.

Lindley Gives First Faculty Talk of Year Applicants should see Prof. L. D. Haverhill, dean of the School of Pharmacy, for further information concerning these jobs. Ursges College Faculty To Understand Outside Activities Which Could Possess Value Sympathetic study of extracurricular activities was urged upon the College faculty by Chancellor Lindley in a brief talk yesterday afternoon at the first faculty meeting of the fall semester. The meeting partook more of a social than of a formal event, some time ago, devoted to the introduction of two-score new members of the faculty, greetings from the Chancellor, and from Paul B. Lawson, dean, who presided. "Not so many years ago we college students had to get our practice in public speaking in our literary societies; now public speaking has become a curriculum," said the Chancellor. "Who knows but what, by a sympathetic study of some of the things that now appear to interrupt the academic program we may find here, in the true education of youth." Quoted Conant of Harvard Chancellor Lindley quoted from remarks made recently at Kansas University in a speech in which the Harvard president spoke approvingly of the scholarships that are being established for undergraduates, and expressed the hope that the plan of students must be extended to include upperclassmen. "Through its scholarship of $1,000 a year for a probationer, and $1,200 a year for the next three years for the young man who makes good, Harvard is putting into practice its belief that the choiceest students should not be expected to do much beyond their class work. "Here in the middle west, where the days of the pioneer are not far in the background, tradition seems to impel some youths to earn at least part of their expenses, even though from families amply able to provide the education. I hope more of our choiceest students may be enabled to pursue their studies unencumbered." Stanathan to Committee State of Nassau. But before the meeting consisted in the approving of the action of the administrative committee in accepting the resignation of Prof. W. S. Johnson, and the appointing of Prof. J. B. Stanahan to that committee, and in approval of the petition of Prof. J. B. Stanahan to the petroleum geology, substituting therefor a junior-senior course that would fit better into the curriculum of the new department of petroleum engineering. The course, as it af- fled from the School of Engineering and Architecture, has already been approved. Prof. Guy Smith, chairman of the committee on improvement of enrollment procedure, asked that suggestions be submitted to the committee before the October meeting of the faculty. Dean Lawson announced that granting of degrees for work completed in summer session would be business before the October meet. Denbart Slayers To Be Arraigned Shelbyville, Ky.

Meyer, Bowling Green lawyer, who was chief defense council at Denhart's murder trial last May. That trial ended in a jury disagreement as to his guilt for the murders of Mrs. Derna Gaylor, pretty widow to whom he was engaged. Myers told his version of the shooting to Dr. F. L. Lapsley, county coroner, but the brothers, Roy, Jack and Dr. E. F. Garr refused to discuss when commonwealth prosecutor H. B. Kinsmoor advised that they should be charged. Roy Garr had tried to take all the blame for the shooting. The brothers will not be arranged before Friday it was said, so that Myers first can take Denhart to his home at Bowling Green.
