(1) Legislators: Our buildings need attention too Not only are our faculty salaries unprecedentedly low, but many of our buildings need serious attention. The burden on the state has been lightened by the fact that 15 of our buildings have been gifts to the University, but a number of the others are in sad need of repair. A day by day listing of some of the more urgent needs will be presented in this column. We understand that the state's expenses are heavy, but we feel we are not unreasonable in asking for these things. We have gone without them for so long that a crisis is rapidly approaching. Watson Library As the dust and mould have gathered on the exhibits of Dyche museum, due to the sad condition of that building, so have they affected the books in Watson library. There is a surplus of 44,000 volumes over the total shelving capacity on the campus. This means that these surplus books must be disposed of in various unsatisfactory ways. The director of the library has listed these ways as follows: 1. All unnecessary duplicates have been removed from the collection. 1. Books are placed on temporary shelves in public corridors, exposed to theft. 3. Books are turned on their edges to permit more shelves to the case. 4. Books are stored in the sub-basement, where they are deteriorating from damp and mould. 5. Books are stored in cartons in the attic and rendered unavailable to the public. 6. Books are shelved in staff toilet rooms. Further, prospective donors of books cannot be assured that their priceless collections will be accorded the treatment they should receive, and a University library must depend on such donors for its best collections. The original building plans have made allowance for these needs. An extension of 70 feet to the west will give space for 420,000 additional volumes. The construction cost is estimated at $150,000, a small price to pay for the preservation of so valuable a collection. The faculty and all students in the School of Engineering and Architecture are invited to attend. Reservations are 60 cents each and must be secured from Professor Russell not later than Wednesday. "This is a man's banquet, we are not dressing," he said. Engineers Will Hold Banquet Thursday The annual engineering banquet will be held Thursday evening at 6:30 in the Memorial Union building, Prof. F. A. Russell announced Wednesday as president of the Phillips Petroleum company, will address the group Two hundred and fifty engineers attended the banquet last year. It is expected that the attendance will surpass that of last year.

Piazzek which includes a bequest to the University, valid, thus upholding the decision of the university. At the time of his death, Piazzek's estate was valued at about $75,000. His will was contested by his sister, Edna P. Gilpin, on the grounds that Piazzek was mentally incapable of making a will. However both his brothers were present when he made the will. The bequest to the University provided for a trust from 208 acres of land and certain town property and mortgages which would be used as a fund with which to aid worthy young men desiring to enter the University. The amount of the bequest has not been determined yet. Ted Val Sloan, baritone, a pupil of Miss Meribah Mohan, presented his senior recital at the Administration building auditorium last Another part of the will set aside $5,000 from which a trust was to care for two horses which the deceased had raised from colts. The trust also has incompatibility, pointing at a number of unusual bequests. This is the first of a series of senior recruits which will be held throughout the remainder of the season. Wagner, fax88 was the accompanist. TED VAL SLOAN PRESENTS FIRST SENIOR RECITAL Sixty-seven graduates of the University have won a place in Chemistry's Roll of Honor, as evidenced by the publication of their biographies in the new 1837 edition of the "Chemical Who's Who." At the head of the list of universities in the number of their graduate is Columbia, with 349. The lists are made up of graduates from 456 American Colleges and 49 foreign institutions. Chemical Who's Who Published Mock Army Camps Deck K-State Campus Funds For New Building Asked in Strange Strike Manhattan, March 8—(UP)—Mishevous students of Kansas State College converted the campus into mock army camp in a lively barricade of the state government. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, TUESDAY, MARCH 9, 1937 Camp fires gleamed between rows of army pup tests as scores were thrown on the cowboy suits or nurses' uniforms, bearing wooden guns and placards denouncing the legislature's failure to provide money for a new science. In the ruins of the old science building, destroyed by fire, other students were arrayed in warring camps over which floated banners Soule Condemns Supreme Court In Analyzation High Tribunal Does Not Act As Protection From Fascism, He Says "To pack the court is really to unpack it," said George H.

A resolution to make the requirements for the scholarship cup given by the Men's Pan-Hellenic Council more uniform was passed at a meeting of that body Sunday morning in the room of the Memorial Union building. A cup is given each year by this organization to the fraternity with the highest scholastic average. The resolution, as passed, reads that the grades of all men who have not received their A.B. degrees, regardless of the number of years in the organization, shall be included in the grade average turned in by the fraternity. The grades of men who have their degrees and are taking graduate or professional work must all be included or completely omitted as the UNABLE TO AGREE ON NEW DIRECTOR Board of Regents Adjourned Late Yesterday With Prospective Selections for New Athletic Head Reduced to Threed Men; Will Make Definite Appointment in Next Ten Days.
