FATE OF STUDENT COURT MAY BE DECIDED AT ELECTION
Field and Lane Say That Present Bill Was Drafted by professor Maddox and Is Constitutional; Men's Council May Turn Affair Over to Students at Tuesday's Election To Clarify Whole Situation
According to Lyman Field, president of the M.S.C., and Logan Lane, treasurer, the student court bill may be turned over to a vote of the men students to decide whether it shall become a bill or an amendment to the constitution.
Field and Lane yesterday issued a statement pointing out the history of the student court bill which Pacchaeana says is unconstitutional. They say that the original bill as presented to the council by the chairman of the P.S.G.L was questioned as to its legality and therefore was redrafted by Prof. W. R. Maddox, of the department (2).
or pompom science, so it wouldn't conform in every detail with the institution. It was clearly reintroduced bill which was passed by the council.
Field Calls Meeting
However, to clarify the whole situation, Field has called a council meeting for this afternoon and will present to the council the idea of having the men student body vote on the amendment if it is amended to the constitution.
In its present form the student court action stands as a bill to the constitution. If the men pass on it, it would be an amendment to the constitution.
The student court bill is not yet in effect as it has not been signed by Chancellor E. H. Lindley.
Following is the statement of Field and Lane:
"It appears that with the election ban five days off, the president of the Pachasaean party, Sel Lindenbaum, has attempted to flied mud upon a measure allowing the election fraud by instituting that a student apprentice court is illegal.
Says Court Is Needed
"Despite Party Head Linderbaum's fabe cry of 'illegal', there is no question as to the real need for an impartial trial of cases of election fraud—cases which in the past have been successfully subverted by naturally partisan councils, and cases which have even involved party men who later became party heads. "In order to clear away this smoke screen had down by Linderbaum and his followers, herewith follows a short account of the nature of his similarity was attested at the last election when the students elected to office the candidates of the Progressive Student

An Orchid to the Journalists; ; Jerry Young Is AmBushed
Many Amateurs But No Comedy . ; Anderson Copies Duchin. Politicians Make Their Bid . Vets Make Money .
An orchid, or whatever Walter Winchell passes out to those who achieve something, should go to the members of the journalism department who are students of this course, and the professor. It should be possible, when the ballots are counted, to get a fairly accurate report on how they appeal to the students. The only danger, other than the possibility that the box will be the possibility of stuffing the boxes by the profs themselves.
Jerry Young, an A.T.O. from Kansas City, would like to know what the game is that the Alpha Chi girls are trying to pull. Last week, Elizabeth Anb asked him for a date to the mid-week variance. At the dance, she wore a pair of high heels and asked him when they ought to get together again. They agreed on the following dance: Jerry is not being fooled, however, since not so long ago he quit going with another Alpha Chi, who now is out of school. He has decided that he is just being played for a sucker, but he doesn't know just

The committee decided to continue efforts to terminate the East African crisis and reintroduce clarification of Rome's attitude, but it members maintained an atmosphere of calm.
Ethiopia's rejection was conveyed to Alosia by Salvador DeMadura, chairman of the Committee of Thirteen and A. C. Azeln, League secretary.
As soon as the stipulations made to Abolso by Masculin became known in Georgia, League officials said they wanted him to return to Ethiopia, after once these them.

Engineers Open Annual Exposition This Afternoon
Exhibitions Will Include Graphic Demonstrations and Striking Exhibitions in All Departments
Exhibits which graphically demonstrate the problems that have been overcome by scientific engineering students of the annual Engineer's Exposition this afternoon at 2 o'clock. Many interesting and educative exhibists have been prepared by all departments of the School of Engineering and Architecture for the event. The exhibits are arranged on two levels, from 7 to 10 p.m. today and from 9 to 12 Saturday morning.
One of the most striking exhibits is
One of the most striking exhibits is in the "reactometer" which is being sponsored by the Aetna Casualty and Sareety company. This machine has a series of lights which flash to the perimeter of the room, time in fractional parts of a second.
Sound Film to Be Shown
Due to the present emphasis of safety and also because highway envelopes are often closed, way safety, an 800-foot sound film will be shown as part of their exhibit. The name of the film is "Waving Seconds" and will be shown continuously from 10 a.m. evening and 9:30 until noon Saturday.
In the Hydraulic Laboratory behind the Engineering building is a composite exhibit of the different items connected with civil engineering including a model railroad, waterfalls, dam, powerplant, tunnels, and bridges.
Other hydraulic exhibits are a carefully sealed model of the much-published Boulder Dam, approximately four by six feet and is constructed of paper mache; a working model of several spillway sections in a flume; and incorrect design showing the damaging results.
The water department will present a number of experiments which include a septic tank for rural sewage disposal, a sprayer to control the factoryed by the General Electric company. A chemical exhibition demonstrates the functions of a complete plant for sewer disposal. The mailed maps show the new Denver sewage disposal plant and a treatment layout of the Lawrence water supply. There are nine interesting exhibits by the Department.
Drawing of Bay Bridge
A realistically painted scale model of the campus has been prepared by the Civil Engineering department. It is truly a carefully constructed relief map and is complete in almost every detail. The miniature model of the building took 10 hours to complete. The scale is 1 inch to 50 feet.
The structural design division of the Civil Engineering department will have many exhibits among which is a drawing of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay bridge at a scale of 1 inch to 50 feet, and is over 49 feet long. Other exhibitions include the Chemical engineers' exhibits will be in the Chemistry building partially to show off the new laboratory. Some of the "unit processes" which will be illustrated are: absorption of gases, pumping of fluids, friction losses in pipes, diffusion, evaporation, distillation, and high temperature reactions.

Gevene Landrith Receives
Prize for Second Place; Dean
Moorhead Third
Irvine Kass c, 39, won the eighth Freshman-Sophomore oratorical contest last night over a field of seven players, with an ovation, "The Eternal Quest."
Gevene Landrift, c39, placed second with "the Development of Socialized Medicine," and Dean Moushad, c38, placed third. "British Idealism." A prize of $15 was given to the winner of first place and a $10 prize was given to the one placing sec-
Kass, winner of the contest, has been prominent in high school debate and oratorical contests. For the last two years, he has been the "state oratorical champion" of the national oratorical fraternity district meet in St. Louis. As winner of this he will be eligible for the national contest to be held in Paescoda this spring and also also member of the designated quad placement in the national contest last year.
The contest, under the supervision of the speech department, was presided over by Gunnar Mykland, T38, freshman debate coach. The judges were Miss Mary Myers Elliott, instructor in English, and Miss Angela Budd, judge, department of English and Claude Scott, former secretary of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce.
The program for the evening was as follows: "British Idealism," Dean Moorhead; "The Learned Ignorant," Don Moore; "How to Handle the Vassal Kass"; "Hamilton, the Master Craftman," C. H. Mullen; "I Can Happen Here," Donald Henry; "The Development of Socialized Medicine," William Farmer; "Civilized Barbarian," William Farmer.
The runner to heat at the present time, according to Glenn, is Gene Venzel, who made an amazing comeback in this winter's track season. The Pennsylvania twintime coach to the Kansen twinter, after trailing him to the tape for 12 successive meetings.
Displaying the broad smile and friendly handshake by which University students have known him, Glenn Clemnham, famed Kamer乳尔, returned to his alma mater yesterday morning to care for his part in the Kamer Kaels.
The stocky mile champion, naturally taciturn, is optimistic over his chances of regaining the crown he lost to Glenn Dawson at the Kansas Lakers last year. He admits that the field is one of the best and the time will undoubtedly be fast.
Asked about the personnel of the American mule team in the Olympics, the man can't tell much about it. A man who looks good may now fall out in the Olymp-
"Mel Truitt, Indiana freshman with whom I will run in the Relays tomorrow," said Cummingham, "is a young runner who is bound for the top. Truitt, because of his freshman standing, has not been in much competition so far but has once defeated Archie Sanchez and national intercollegiate mile champion, who will also appear on the Relys program."
Honor Man,'35 Will Be Announced This Morning
Cunningham Returns to Hill, Hoping To Regain Title Lost Last Year
Washburn College Head Will Give the Address at Student Convocation in Auditorium
The honor man of 1953 and the honor roll of 1963, consisting of 106 students who have done outstanding scholastic achievements in their university convexion to be held this morning in the University auditorium at 10 o'clock. Following the conferring ceremony, the 106 students will
Washburn college, Topeka, will speak on "The Strategy of the Educated." Honor man, in the estimation of a committee, exemplifies best the qualifications of the award, which are character, scholarship, breadth of interest, unselfishness, and leadership. Last summer, the university, world famous miler, was selected.
Custom Started in 1924
The custom of making such an award was instituted in 1924 when the Paul Endacott of Lawrence was selected. Others since then, in the order of their selection, were: Howard Firebaugh, St John; Wallace James; McInline; Macdonald Nichols; Bailford Jeffrey, Topeka; Charles S. Haines, Sabatha; J. Cromble, Ellis; Marshall Wren Gabel, Lorned; Claire Lawrance Wood, Liberal; and Harold Denton, Jewell.
The honor roll includes the upper 10 per cent of the senior class in all the colleges, junior sophomore, and freshman classes. Some of the students listed are on the honor roll for the first time, but many of the sophomores and juniors have been on lists in previous years. Chancellor Lindley will preside over the convention. Dean Donald Swearthwill lead a singing of America. The University hand will play the accompaniment. Following the Lord's Prayer, the announcement of the honors of 1935 and the honor man of 1935 will be made. "We will give the address," he said.
Dr. Philip C. King will give the address, "The Strategy of the Edutored." With the singing of the Alma Mater the program will close.
Department Head Ordered to Washington
Colonel Baldwin, formerly with the coast artillery corps, stationed in Washington, D.C., will replace Lt. Col. Franklin Babek as commander of the University of Kansas department of military science and tactics.
Lieutenant Colonel Babeck has been ordered to Washington, D.C., where he will serve in the Army Industrial College. He will leave Washington in June.
The final Olympic rings are scheduled for July 12-13. The place is undecided, as it is uncertain whether the stadium being built for the purpose on Reynolds Island, New York, will be completed.
Glenn has little sympathy with those who urge that the United States should refuse to participate in the Olympics because of German persecution of minority groups.
"We are not interested in the political side of the affair, but in the sport," he said. "It makes no difference to Germany what happens in the United States. Our refusal to participate would not change Germany's political attitude. I think it would be even more many and represent the United States." Cunningham has no one certain system for his races. He maps out a plan for a coming race, but changes it readily to adapt it to the conditions of the race. When asked whether the strategy he used in defeating Mangan and Venze in the slow time of 45.5, would work better if it that might and it might not; one could tell without knowing the conditions.
Glenn plans to finish school this year at the University of Iowa and then return to Lawrence to train for the Olympiad under his old coach, Billy Hartgus.
World Records in Danger; Crack Athletes Will Compete
Tomorrow will mark the sixth time that Glen Cunningham has competed in the Kansas Relays. Glenn first appeared here in 1530 in the high school relays, setting the record of 4.314 for the mile run, which still stands. He did not compete the next year, it being a new season and that time he has competed every year, setting Relays records in both the rule and the 1500-meter run.

collegiate champions competing in the individual events, and three Olympic events being run here for the first time.
Cunningham, the United States' leading contender for the Olympic 1500-meter championship, will run in that event tomorrow. The field he will face includes three men of proven ability, Archi San Romini, national collegiate mile champion, Ray Sears, former Butler ace who won the event two years ago, and Mel Trutt, Indiana freshman who is considered one of the country's most promising young milers. This race should be run in fast time for San Romani, Sears and Trutt are all named in the winner's ningham will have to extend himself to win. San Romani's time here last year for the 1500-meter was 3.572, the equivalent of a 4.152 meter. The Emporian was not pressed in winning and in addition should have improved since that date, which indicate he should run the distance in considerably faster time tomorrow.
Noble Defends Title
Sears started early this week to hitch-hike to Lawrence for the meet and at St. Louis ran upon Ed Hall, former Jayhawk spinner. Hall, now uck coach at St. Louis U., is bringing him back day and day, and will bring Sears with him.
Jayhawker prospects for the Ralays are rising with the improvement in the condition of Ray Noble's injured knee. After a game, Vault vault, vaulted Wednesday afternoon without injuring his knee further and will compete tomorrow. He took three vaults and called it a day. Jayhawker has never been a Jayhawker will successfully defend his title.
Entries Include Crack Teams
Entries Include Crack Teams
The competition in the relay races should virtually dely description. The entire race should have crack quartets, sprint relay and the mile relay are thick with crack quartets. The battle in the sprint relay should be especially tense. New world records in the sprint relay are also needed; media ardy are definite possibilities.
In the nine regular individual events three national collegiate champions will compete. San Ronan will run in the NCAA Division I women's home Baptist, Kansas Relays record holder and winner here twice, leads the pack of entrants in the high hurdles. Lylla Phunil of Drake, will participate in his championship in the high jump.
Three new events have been added to the Relays program because of the fact that this is Olympic year. These events, the 300-meter steeplechase, the 500-meter steeplechase and jump, are all calculated to be of much interest to the spectators.
