The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas
Raise in Faculty Salaries; Funds for Dyche Planned
Board of Regents Proposed Budget Would Take Care of Depression Deficiencies
University teachers may very well be smiling today, for the Board of Regents has announced in its proclamation that all students in pedagogical salaries of $18250.
This year, University of Kansas instructors were paid $815,000. In 1937-38 they will receive, if the proposed budget is approved, $884,250.
Faculty members had their salaries reduced about 25 per cent four years ago. The proposed increase will re-approximate 12 per cent of the cte.
Dyche Museum To Be Completed
Also included in the proposed budget is an appropriation of $55,000 to be expanded for the completion of Dyche Museum. The museum has been closed since 1932 pending rebuilding operations that would make it safe and habitable.
Library Stacks To Be Extended
The new budget also calls for an expenditure of $75,000 to extend the stocks of Watton Library.
At the present time the library contains about 100,000 volumes more than its original capacity. Extension of the stack rooms will take care of these extra books and provide for more expansion.
Other Departments To Benefit
Provisions have been made in the Regents' recommendations for other departments of the state; see: Watkins dorsitory service connection, $5000; Geological Survey, $25,000; repairs and improvements, $35,000; mechanical engineering, $7,500; and maintenance, $250,000.
The total proposed increase for 1957-38 over last year's appropriation is $416,500.
Medical School Will Benefit
The University of Kansas School o
medicine at Kansas City will receive
additional funds in 1937-38.
Salaries of the medical teachers will be increased $85,750. New construction amounting to $170,000 will be made and the appropriations for maintenance and repairs all have been increased.
on the SHIN by "Flash" Morris
Rumor is being circulated to the effect that an assistant in the department of psychology was recently put into a trace by a freshman in the university. We have tried to ascertain the names of the persons involved, but to no avail—possibly because the results of experimental responses (in reverse gear) are not commonly known in the anals of psychology.
Ken Peltwhite, music critic, has inadvertently become known as "Deadpan." To make a long story short, the small bright daughter of a campus visiting couple looked upon his emotionless map and asked, "Daddy, who is that Deadan?"

Dear Santa:
We want a large number of blood-thirsty, fighting men (preferably with some flying experience) who are willing to sacrifice all and go to Spain to fight for the cause of the Loyalists. Also, we want a man with some military experience (preferably Bob Richardson) who can teach us the use of guns, and the tactics of war without making us drill

Xmas Vespers Are Presented To Big Crowds
Spectacular P r o r a m
Given Twice Sunday
For 6,500 Persons Who
Fill Auditorium
More than 6,500 persons attended the fourteenth annual Christmas Vesper services in the Auditorium Sunday. The services were given twice this year, the first time since they began, to accommodate the crowd.
The Auditorium was filled to capacity for the afternoon performance and was nearly full for the evening show.
The entire program maintained the same high standard of beauty and smoothness that made the processional so moving, except for the one about the organist. The seminal, seemed to be vying with the hundred-odd voices of the choir in an effort to see who was the loudest. Had the organist not been aided by a mumford instrument, he doubtless would have lost the consummation.
The Vesper Choir sang four numbers in that precise, clear, tuneful manner that Dean D. M. Swarth out seems to be able to extract from the musical organizations he directs.
The songs used by the choir were:
"Today There is a Ringing" (Christianen);
"The Three Rings" (old Catalan nativity song); "The Holy and the Ivy" (Boughnut); and "Praise the Lord" (Frank).
Wilkins Family Features
Wilkins Family Features
Especially enjoyable on the program was the singing of the Wilkins family of the Men's Glee club, "song O'Fair Art Thou" (Gridi-Clokey), accompanied by the harp and organ. Mrs. Marie Wilkins sang the solo part of the chair's number, "The Three Kings," and later sang a duet with Alice Monieriff, "The Virgin by the Manger" (Frankenby the University string quartet.
Other musical numbers on the program were: "Ave Maria" (Bach-Gound), by the University ensemble; Waldemar Geltch, violin; Raymond Stubl, cello; D. M. Swarthout, meryl Merwyn Anderson, harp; and Lauren Anderson, "The Sleep of the Child Jesus" (Busser), Waldemar Geltch, violin, accompanied by the harp and organ.
The departments of design and drawing and painting staged four beautiful tableaux during the Vespers program. Three of the tableaux depicted events connected with the birth of Christ, the fourth was a wedding, and the fifth—a small family gathered around a glowing fireplace, stockings hung from the mantle and the father reading the evening paper.
Outstanding Picture Most spectacular of the four living pictures showed the flight of Joseph and Mary into Egypt. Joseph was

The actual formulation of plans was left to the executive committee, which will work on these during the Christmas vacation. It will also investigate possible affiliation with an organization for iron-osority women.
Catherine Holmes opened the discussion with a report on similar organizations in other schools throughout the United States, pointing out the policies followed by the various groups and outpointing positions of some national leaders concerning these policies were made by members present.
These matters will be reported at the next meeting which will be held Jan. 4.

So close was the contest that the final bout was the deciding one; and Kansas scored a total of 43 touches against Heart of America's 44. The match was not decided by the number of touches as is sometimes the case, but rather by the individual bouts won.
