Choose Courses For Sympathy, Understanding
NUMBER 79
LAWSON
Dean Speaks to Womer on: 'What Shall I Take?'-Advises 'Study Well'
As broad education as possible—courses which increase understanding, interest, and sympathy in fields other than those in which the student was interested before college entrance—and the value of never studying superficially, was stressed by Dean Paul B. Lawson when he addressed the Freshman commission at Henley House yesterday afternoon upon the subject, in the Curriculum for Women.
A
Asking the important question "What shall I take?" Dean Lawson has found two groups of people, those to whom nothing looks interesting in the entire curriculum, and those who would like to take everything offered. To the latter group Dean Lawson advised that they take these courses which they would not get if they did not go to college, and those who are introduced to new fields the student would gain an appreciation for them, and become the citizen of several new intellectual worlds.
"Study well," Dean Lawson said
"For. I do not believe that any one can take any subject ser-
ience." He was being valuable to him some day.
He added later that new jobs are being made every day by those who through a good general college education have equipped themselves for living. "If you and I do our best to prepare ourselves for life, life will have a place for us. Everything is been perfect and the past can be tremendously improved upon," he said in conclusion.
About choosing a course Dean Lawson insisted, "No one can choose your courses except yourself."
He said that no outsider—not even mother, father, or professor could help a student with his own choice.
Dean Lawson has found that positions for women are increasing. Certain occupations are opening up in particular. The teaching profession is wide-open for newcomers, and will be for years to come. These opportunities are particularly in demand are music, home economics, physical education, language, particularly for Latin and English teachers, and nursing. The social science fields are crowded but the mathematics field is demanding more teachers, the being crowded with students. Teachers are in almost all fields are becoming less crowded, and the demand for teachers is growing.

Personal: I wish to thank the person who sent the flowers to Peggy Morgan and attached my signature to the card after I had suggested such a procedure for one named James Steele. I sincerely appreciate this attempted "build up" but wish to add that I shall not be held responsible for those injuries incurred by myself. However, if she really accepted the flowers as a gift from me, well, that's a different matter —

The Kappa Sig's have discovered that the grades of their pledges are decidedly below par and have put all of them under rigid "campus" rules. They are not even permitted to work on campus, or on week end—it is a twenty-four hour day "campus" which will last until final ends. It is doubtful if this will be of any great help if the pledges are permitted to continue with the campus. If they have "battle target practice" from the windows of their rooms.

Austin, Texas, Jan. 18, (UP—)University of Texas faculty members, students, alumni and Texas officials debated today whether the University should pay the sum asked by the university to come as head football coach.

The price the coach of the University of Nebraska football team was reported as asking for his services was a $1,000 yearly salary and a budget of $10,000. This is considerably more than the rich club's average.
A re-organized athletic board met Sunday in a five-hour session, selected a committee of three headed by Prof. W. W. Davis to take over the duties of Dr. F. C. Allen as director of athletics, and recommended to this committee the rehiring of Coach Ad Lindsay and his staff for the coming year.

Forty-One Patients Confined To Hospital
Although there are 41 patients in the Memorial hospital—three times the usual number of cases—this number does not approach the hospital's capacity. At one time last year, for example, 89 students were confined to the hospital.
Influenza accounts for 87 patients at present, but no one is seriously ill. The hospital staff does not believe the epidemic will be severe.
The following students are patients in Watkins Memorial hospital:

Publication Is a Sell-Out
Print 400 Extra Copies of Kansas Magazine to Meet Demand
This increase will raise the circulation of the Kansas magazine to 2,500 copies, as compared to the 1,000 copies printed during the first three years since the magazine was revived in 1933. In 1938 the printing increased to 1500 and was sold out.
Because of the unusual demand for the 1937 Kansas Magazine, it has been necessary to print 400 extra copies which will be off the press this week. The first issue of 2100 copies was published on Dec. 20.
The 1987 number contains 112 pages, a number of full page reproductions of Kansas art, and prose and poetry by contemporary Kansas. The number is predated the Kansas day 167, and is included in Prof. W. H. Mackenzie's volume of the Kansas State College department of industrial journalism.
