On the Shin-he would receive a large sum of money—his reaction was not learned. Henry Schweller was to conduct research for Wolff Brothers in Kansas City.
Johnny Grist was called, and since his home is in Chanute as is Mrs. Martin Johnson's home, he was told that he had been recommended to be in the Johnson party on an African expedition—he was asked to send references and a letter—he did.
Russia Is Forum Topic

Bob Bittman was told that he had been recommended as a capable writer and if he would write up the book, he would use on the "Lights Out" program.
Several grade school boys are doing thriving business fishing golf balls out of Potter Lake and selling them to students. Clad in shorts the boys walk around until they feel a ball with their tees and then dive after it. The last hole on the course is across the lake and students are scare that do not drive at least one ball in the "drink."
There is a woman student on the Hill who has been amusing herself by calling students interested in different fields of work and offering them jobs—she uses the name of Helen Anderson and acts as secretary of the boss on every different kind of job offered. Here are examples of some of her propositions and the partial list of victims.

Laughlin put on such a fine show by blushing, borrowing a book for his performance, and casting inquisitive looks at the camera. Many of the students still owe Polkhamn a vote of thanks because he organized the student group and held a meeting with the class meeting—this time a professor, E. N. Doan, waited 12 minutes for his students and finally walked out.

With no varsity dances being held on the Hill, students are responding to the call of the various "nite spots" in surrounding towns for their weekend entertainment. The "Stables," Topeka's latest contribution in this field, is becoming increasingly popular with local "socialites." The current floor show features the Morgan Family, singers and dancers, and the comely Miss Sharon, four times chosen to represent Pennsylvania in the Alabama City contest. Seen at KU's "d险和手腕s'" were disappointed when a Topeka boy was chosen by Miss Sharon as the best looking man in the audience Friday night.
Open Sunday Evening til nine
Every year at the Kansas Relays there is a "hero" who seems to receive more attention than any of the other contestants—this year it was Archie San Romani of Emporia State Teachers College who was the target of the battery of cameramen, handshakers, and the autograph seekers who swarmed around him at every opportunity—this in itself is another story—a reward to most persons, but San Romani sloughed it off by dashing off another mile shortly after defeating Cummingham.

was secretary to an executive of the K. C. Star. Alan was called and told that due to the ability displayed when he wrote the "Shin", the star wanted him to write a feature story on "Intellectual Viewpoints of Students"—Alan has been working on the story.
This secretary of all executives has others on her list who were to receive offers, but it seems that some finally became suspicious and due to fear of being found out, she ceased activities, which will probably shatter the victims' fondest dreams of success.
