Congress Against Cut of War Debts
European Obligations
T o t a l $12,000,000,000;
Should Be Paid
Washington, Dec. 1, (UPI)—Premier members of Congress tonight indicated strong opposition to any war debt settlement that involved reduction of the European obligations which total more than $120,000–900,000. All authority for new settlement rests in Congress.
First reactions on Capitol Hill to overtures from France and reports that Britain may also seek negotiations was one of cynicism due to the defaults of all nations except Finland.
Vice-President John N. Garner conferred with Secretary of the Interior on the war debt but both denied they discussed the war debt and Garner later refused to comment on the French proposal. He has been against war debt
Representative John J. O'Connor, New York, one of the house leaders saw "no sentiment" in Congress for readjustment of the debt.
"They would have to put the money on the line or we wouldn't be interested," he said.

Many of the Freshman Froliers are very nervous. Few of the men have decided whether they should send cendrils to their ladies or not. Emily Post might well be college saying in answer to such a question "Forget your conscience and let your pocket-book be your guide." Someone has suggested that wearing a corsage while dancing to music would be similar to wearing a derby in a football game.
The readers might be interested to learn that Reginald Heap, coeditor of this column in the onerule *Journal of Science* and about. Bill Dodderidge received a telegram last week from the ex-transmon man asking for a loan of $400,000 to build up a gram from San Diego and reported that the weather was fine.
Tarzan of the Apes has little or nothing on Johnmy Green of the Delta Tan house. The former, as the reader may know, has shain various and surreal stories carried in a lounch-club. The latter slew a "possum Sunday night with a two-by-four while clad in a top-coat. After hearing Green's victory of several of the lads from that hostage-camp, he says, "Someone whether the animal was dead or just "playing" possum." Joe Brooks performed a post mortem on the poor defenseless creature by jumping upon his prone form. The result is that Johnny Green if not before and the D To have found it necessary to recruit some extra house-men.

Several of the local photographers have announced a great increase in business since the rotgreure section of this paper came out last year. And dissiasis are overly anxious to have their pictures among those appearing in the brown section which will accompany this sheet every Sunday. Not only would the students be upset but the students could mail the paper home so that their parents might know they are still in school.
Campusing penalties as enforced by most of the sorority houses are quite a joke. Two of the Pi Phi pledges who were camped in a while back called the Phi Delthe town telling two of the boys there that an escape could be effected if the lads in question would be on hand. Receiving an answer an officer the five were asspent and the gallantly aided through one of the windows of the Pi Phi house on their return. Our sparrow said that he didn't know where the girls were but that they couldn't have been Coats and Stewart as it wasn't a bay window.

Basketball Men
Loss of five counterts with scholastic difficulties and the addition of four football squadmen left the variance basketball squad at 23 members yesterday afternoon. Practice began in earnest yesterday as Coach F. C "Phog" Allen skilled his men in prep games. Washburn game Thursday night.
Dalton Landers has a broken hand and has been having grade difficulties that will keep him out of competition for some time. Charles Stipp and his partner are also being likewise being advised to put in more time with their books for a few weeks.
Doctor Allen has two two-letters—Mary Bay Noble and Paul Rogers—on the squad and the following who have one letter: Marvin Cox, Roy Holliday, Newton Hoverstock, Fred Prahlle, and Al Wlhouhens. In predeceased years, he used Noble and Cox at forwards; Holiday at center for play plays, with Cox doing the jumping at center; and Prahlle and Rogers at guards. Against this team he has been using Golay and Corliss, sophomores, at forward positions; cinders, centers; Weidner and Durand, so positions, at the guard positions.
Noble, the most versatile man on the squad, has been playing all three positions while Cox and Wellhausen have been alternating between forward and guard in addition to their own backs. The Thursday night's game is uncertain, and it is likely that a number of players will see action.
Bob Holmer, Topeka, who lettered last year, and Gerald Robinson, Kansas City, sophomore, will also lead a learning until after the holidays.

PAGE SEVEN
The curtain fell on the 1936 Big Six gridiron campaign Thanksgiving Day when Missouri downed a fighting Jayhawker team at Columba.
Huskers Remain In Big Six Saddle
By virtue of this victory, Missouri finished in second place behind Ne-braska, the perennial champion. Kurtis finished at the bottom of the heap, but played its best game of the year.
The Big Six this year was particularly devoid of anything that came close to what could be termed an upset. The closest thing to an upset was the stunning defeat administered to Kansas State by Nebraska. Iowa State's tie with Oklahoma can also be classed in this same category. On the whole the season was a typical Big Six victory, and it was no wonder the parade. The disappointing showing of Kansas and the turn of football fortunes of Missouri were the high lights of the season.
A word about the future. Missouri has definitely hit a winning stride and will be very much in the wind. "It's Big Sky ice," Oklahoma has potentially as good a team as Missouri, Kansas State, Iowa State and Kansas will have to rebuild. Kansas has a promising group of sophomores and an equally promising group of freshmen. It will make her undoubtedly stronger than this year.
