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 $18,250.
This year, University of Kansas instructors were paid $115,000. In 1927-38 they will receive, if the proposed budget is approved, $804,250.
Faculty members had their salaries reduced about 25 per cent four years ago. The proposed increase will re-
precipitate approximately 12 per cent of the cut.
Dyche Museum To Be Completed
Also included in the proposed
budget is an appropriation of $53,000
to be expended for the completion of
Dyche. Museum. The museum has
been closed since 1832 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 stacks of Watson 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 medical departments. Use of Watkins dormitory service connection, $5000; Geological Survey, $23,000; repairs and improvements, $55,000; mechanical engineer, $7,500; and maintenance, $250,000.
The total proposed increase for 1967-38 over last year's appropriation is $416,500.
Medical School Will Benefit
Medical School Will Be
The University of Kansas School of Medicine at Kansas City will receive additional funds in 1837-38.
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 trance by a freshman student. 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 inputs of psychology.

Ken Postlethwaite, 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 emotional map and asked, "Daddy, who is that Deadpan?"

We want a large number of blood-thirsty, fighting men (preferably with some sacrifice experience) who are willing to saffire all and go to Spain to fight for 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
Dear Santa:
Xmas Vespers Are Presented To Big Crowds
The American Student Union Continued on page three
More than 6,500 attendees attended the fourteenth annual Christmas Vesper services in the Andorrian Sunday. The services were given twice this year, the first time since 2014, to the team, to accomodate the large 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 professional so moving, except for the occasional whisper. The occasional, seemed to beying 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 mamoth instrument, he doubtless would have lost the contest.
The Vesper Choir sang four numbers in that precise, clear, tuneful manner that Dean D. M. Swarthout 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 Kings" (old Catholic nativity song); "The Holly and the Ivy" (Boughton); and "Praise the Lord" (Franck).
Wilkins Family Features
Especially enjoyable on the program was the singing of the Wilkins family. Prof. Joseph Wilkins, director of the men's Glee club, sang "O Fair Art Thou" (Gradi-Clocky) accompanied by the harp and organ. Mrs. Marie Wilkins sang the solo part of the choir's number, "The Three Kings," with Mr. Bonnet itself, "The Virgin by the Manger" (Franc), accompanied by the University string orchestra.
Other musical numbers on the program were: "Ave Maris" (Bach-Gounod), by the University ensemble; Waldemar Geltch, violin; Raymond Stuhl, cello; D. M. Swarthout, cello; Mervyn Anderson, harp; and Laurel Everett Anne Organ, organ; and Larry Bassler (Basler), Waldemar Geltch, violin, accompanied by the horn and organ.
The departments of design and drawing and painting staged four beautiful tableaux during the Vesper program. Three of the tableaux depicted events connected with the birth of Christ, the fourth was a Christmas-at-hospital event, the fifth 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 mills of the gods grind slowly, and for the University athletic jumble, even more so.
After four hours of deliberation last night the athletic board left to the executive committee of its organization the job of working out the details of the present muddled football situation.
