Petitions to Student Councils Climax Furor Over Jayhawker Exemption Slips
Seething at the allegedly unfair business practices of the Jayhawker, yearbook-magazine of the University, in demanding the subscription price of $3 unless an exemption slip is presented at the time of payment of University fees, two students, Donald Henry, c20, and Mary Bobc, c37, are leading a protest against
pensive yearbook-magazine could no be produced were not these or similar tactics followed.
Moamureh the Joywhacker continues its practices, contending that all Jay-
hawker finances are handled through the business office and that such an in-

Miss Robb and Henry condemn the system whereby the permission of a private commercial enterprise is required before fees will be accepted by the University. The university does not realize this system is not explained before entering the fee line and that many new students buy the Jahywhur without realizing that it is not absolutely com-
Charge Pressure Used
They charge that those students who do not know of the practice or who forget to procure exemption cards lose their chance to receive tuition in turbulent result. Miss Robb and Henry maintain that Jayhwahwer salesmen take advantage of their unwarranted privilege to bring excessive pressure to bear on those students seeking exemption cards.
Jack Townsend, c.28, business manager of the Jayhawk, says in defiance "The so-called unfair tactics of the Jayhawk make it a hard fact that the year-bookmaker is the official publication of the University, that all Jayhawk subscription money is handled through the business office," she said. "We are on the payroll of the University."
No Intimidation Meant
He further explains that in order to produce a better yearbook, members of the Jayhawk staff at the exemption slip table ask the student why he seeks exemption. "Our questions have been misconstrued as intimidation; we are merely seeking information to assist us in creating a better magazine," Townsend said.
Petitioners Corner Students
James Coleman, c38, editor of the Jayhawker, could not be reached for a statement.
His statement that the Jayhawk worker is offering an inexpensive magazine he backs up with the assertion that the University of Southern California yearbook costs $12 and is absolutely com-
fortable. The average price being offered at $44 includes cover.
Petitions Corner Students
Henry and Miss Rosa, in line with their views on the question, are cornering students with petitions addressed to the Jayhawk advisory board, the council of the WSC.A. and the Men's School of the术业 state. We protest the action of the men's administration in requiring a Jayhawk exemption alp before accepting fees! They have obtained nearly 500 signature
Regarding what the two students hope to accomplish, Henry says, "I hope that these petitions will destroy a most undemocratic practice." Mary Bobr, more acid, says, "I do not like to seek the permission of a private enterprise publishing a fourth-rate Greek letter funny paper when I enroll."
It is believed that, if sufficient signatures are obtained, the matter will be given attention by the council of W.S.G.A. and M.S.C.

President Denies Charge of Alien Support
Washington, Sept. 19. — (UP) "The White House today issued a reply to an attack on Roosevelt to the effect that President Roosevelt was charged with receiving support of 'alion organizations' to the American form of government."
Stephen T. Early, presidential secretary, was asked whether the statement was directed against William Randolph Hearst, who have been criticized by the
Early replied, "I have no further comment, that is all."
It appeared, however, from a previous conversation that the reply was directed at Mr. Zelmer. A story charging that Soviet Russia was supporting the New Deal in the 1936 campaign appeared tonight in the Washington Post, owned by William Richard Heartt.
The President commented, "Such articles are conceived in malice and born of political spite. They are deliberately framed to give a false impression—in other words to 'frame' the American people.
"This simple fact is, of course, obvious.
"The President does not want and does not welcome the vote or support of any individual or group taking orders from alien sources.
"The American people will not permit their attention to be diverted from real issues to fake issues, which no place for them should find. They purposely inject into American affairs."
The statement was signed by Early.
WPA Salary Charges Met by Walter A. Huxman
Dodge City, Sept. 19, - (UP)—Walter A. Huxman, Democrat, general gubernatorial candidate, denied tonight a charge made last week by C. C. Cogwheel, state tax commissioner, that WPA employees in Kansas are drawing $10,000 salaries.
"The statement is utterly untrue."
Hoxman said, "No salary is being paid under the WPA administration in Kansas in excess of $6,000."
" only one salary of $6,000 is being paid and " this to the state administrator. No other employee of the WPA in Kansas receives as much as $5,000 per year."

Marketing Professor Knows His Groceries
Mary Holtclaw, a member of the professor's household, also did some guessing. She with possibly the Marketing teacher's help, estimated the price of the DVD and the Radio Shop window and won the prize. Hannas said they had $106 worth of goods in their window. Mary Holtclaw said it was only $194.10.
Lawrence Merchants, as you no doubt know, Friday conducted their annual Fall Window Unvelling. As a feature of the event the participating artists gathered together to correct the correct total value of the articles contained in their windows.
Professor Holtzclaw, as you may not know, did some guessing and with commendable results. Our indomitable team was able to knowledge to a good advantage and guessed correctly the value of the goods shown in the windows of Kroger's Grocery Store. The right amount was $12, the$15, the guesses was $31-
Let no one doubt now the value of an education and especially a course in marketing.
Pointing out the problems of the country in dealing with drought, dust, and depression, Lester D. McCoy, memphis governor, shared a main address to the seventy-first Annual Opening Convocation Friday morning said, "The same state of ideas and ideals in the minds of the young in the United States of America significance than the loss of crops."
Ideals Are More Significant Than Crops
"Ideas and ideals," he stated, "are the factors that control the world. We never attain our ideals, but constant attention to them helps us on."
Mr. McCoy pointed out that ideas build cities and bring forth revolutions, while ideals, like roots, extend only as far as the case which contains them. Youth, through research, will make contributions, he said teaching us now to do things when we can no longer continue as we have in the past.
"We are in an age of sudden and rapid change. You must answer the question of what contributions will be made to our country as a principle of our origin," he urged, "becomes life of our maturity, which must live up to the standards set forth in the past history of our country. We must ourselves of opportunities to do service."
"The American people are today the mightiest force for good in the work If you believe in the free government or the unauthorized, you must defend your rights."
Quoting statistics, Chancellor Lindley proceeded to point out the chances of attaining a higher standard of living
Following Mr. McCoy, Chancellor E. H. Lindley gave his annual address, centering his theme around the statement, "You are the Children of Good Fortune."

He indicated that places would be created for three new French classes, one Spanish class, three rhetoric, one English, several classes in the School of Business, and laboratory science, geology, chemistry, and bacteriology.
The new high in enrollment has been counted for in various ways. The increased CSEP allotment for student employment, the veterans' bonus, good chap trots in some areas, and the pop-up camp in valley, all valley, have indubiously added.
