So far—no roes, Rex. By the way--what'll I do with all these 'brick-bats' that the Shin's been receiving attention now, people, that we will not take the responsibility for anything Broben Woods has written, spoken, or thought (the latter being somewhat of an imposition to this unfortunate stay with the Kansan.
We're glad to hear that F. Quentin Brown, business manager of this sheet who has been somewhat under the pressure of his work, much better. We'll be hoping to see ya soon, Quentin. By the way—'n'tin the red-brained nurse a something or other
Heard that a certain A. D. Pi had a little tough luck on a term paper she submitted to one of our journalism professors. Seems she thought an A wouldn't be impossible, and B was the least she could get on it. Well she got a D: My advice would be "think before handing it in rex fem."
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, TUESDAY, JANUARY 28, 1936
In answer to current rumors (rooms in this case), we'd like to issue the following statement, based on a thorpe in this case: "I will never mean 'no'," Margaret Ryan, Pi Phi lass, and Fred Ella, of the Sigma Nu ranch, do not live at the Mell. I know they're down there all the time, but the room was in the basement." Lea booted booth No. 12 for the semester.

Understand that Stew Chamberis, boss of the Phil Delt freshmen, is going to change schools before he reads his own name in the "Ten Years Aged" column while still in that 'er law school. We did out that column. Schools, if you savo I see.
And then there's the one about Lucy Lee "igneanme" (pronounced igneanme) Hawks—but we failed to hear it!
"By the way -please not refer to 'On the Shin' as being a popular column --it runs contrary to reputation, and it's always a bad thing. Thanks."
A note to one of our young Kansas editors:
“Regarding the publicity that you gave to 'On the Shin', and me, I do not think that the said publicity is worth mentioning. So we then deduct five cents a line for putting it on the back page of your rag, and they will pay you for my come. To think about it—it appeared in your column, so you had to accept 13 cents damage.”
DEAN SHAAD ATTENDS MEETING OF ENGINEERS IN NEW YORK
Heard that Dick Sklar was seen on the "Bald-head" row in the Empress last night Saturday. I always relax before finals, too, Dick. But I sure never thought about the Empress. Nice place—inn't it?
Dean G. C. Shaad of the School of Engineering is attending the annual midwinter meeting of the national executive board of the American Institute of Electrical Engineering in New York City this week. He is a member of the board
Dean Shaad will also visit his two sons, George and Paul, in Schenected, N.Y., before returning home next Monday. Paul Shaad works for the General Electric Company there and George works for the same company in Pittfield, Mass, but will join his father and brother in Schenected.

Senate Overrides President's Stand On Bonus Payment
Three Alternatives Sighter For Raising Money: Taxes, Expansion, or Borrowing
Washington, D.C., Jan. 27. (UP)—The senate voted 76 to 19 in support of President Roosevelt's opposition to immediate payment of the soldiers' bonus, then enacting the bill into law, but leaving unsettled the problem of raising funds to pay the $2,237,000,000 obligation.
Authorization payment in bonds and payment for 3,500,000 ex-soldiers, starting June 15 was the easiest part of the task. The remainder remains the task of finding the money.
These alternatives were discussed:
1. Borrowing.
2. Currency expansion. Opinions on this plan denounced it as inflatory.
3. New taxes—probably the most dif-ferent unpopular method in an election year.
Advised of the senate's action, President Roosevelt called on the governor's administration to carry out payment as a form of compensation to the same urging veterans to be patient.
A White House statement said that 7,000,000 interest calculations will be necessary and that 2500 to 3000 additions would be required for 6 months to work there.
Veterans called on the President and promised to do everything possible to persuade the ex-soldiers to hold their bonds.
During debate on the bonus, the Senate twice stifled the temptation to print new bills to pay it, but advocates and lawmakers have been determined to renew the fight.
Fifty-eight Democrats joined 15 Republicans, 1 Progressive and 2 Farmers Laborists in voting to override 12 Democrats and 7 Republicans voting to suppose that the first time within the memory of former Garner that every member voted.
The veterans administration has ordered applications printed. The procedure of payment will be to issue bonds and cash to the veterans in exchange for their adjusted service certificates.
The house oversee President Roosevelt's veto Friday. Outcome of today's vote was so little in doubt that the treasury has been working for several days on a design for the new bonus bonds.
Bonds may be catched at any postoffice or other designated place on and after June 15.
Will Judge Poetry Contest
Miss Babette Deutch, one of the seven outstanding woman poets of America, has accepted the invitation to participate in a poetry contest. The other judge in the contest are: Mr. Elijah L. Jacobs, who was graduated from the University in 1921, and Prof. W. S. Johnson, head of the English department of the University.
The provisions of the contest provide that the committee of award shall consist of a member of the English department of the University, an alumnus of the University, and a distinguished poet not connected in any way with the University.

Prospects Are Bright For Heavy Enrollment
First Semester Figure of 4246 Is Highest Since 1930
P prospects for a record enrollment the second semester of the current year are extremely bright, as can be deduced from the official figures of first semester enrollment, which show a total of 4246 students attending on Nov. 1. This is six times since 1901, and one of the years of greatest attendance in the school's history.
Every county in Kansas except Kearney county was represented in last semester's enrollment, at which one time early in the year rose to the 4270 mark, only to fall to 4240 for the official count on Nov. 1. The figure of 4240 tied the record set in 1930 but withdrawals from school were responsible for the decrease.
Second semester enrollment usually shows an increase of 250 to 300 students over that of the first semester, and according to Raymond Nichols, secretary to the Chancellor, it is quite possible that this number may even be exceeded this year to set a new high. "Attendance this year has been virtually as great as it will be in the past," he attributed the fact that this year's mark was slightly below that, of the boom
Only new students will be required to register next week at the opening of the spring semester. Enrollment will open on Monday morning at 8:30, and students must complete thought through a new course. Recent changes in the enrollment system designed to insure a faster and easier process have shortened the necessary period from three days to two, and it is likely that these steps will go into effect before the university becomes under investigation.
Students Enroll Early
Classes will open for the new term at 8:30 Wednesday morning, Feb. 5, with the only vacation coming at Easter, on April 12.
Philadelphia—(UP)—Dr. A. Edward Newton, distinguished essayist and bibliophile, has been appointed Rosenbach Lecture Fellow at the University of Pennsylvania for the academic year 1925-36.
President T. S. Gates announced that Dr. Newton, one of the world's foremost authorities on Johnsonia, will deliver a series of lectures at the University in February or March. They will be free to the public.
Newly Appointed Fellow Will Lecture at University of Pennsylvania

Ethel Barrymore Colt To Perform in Fraser
The Lawrence Room is under the supervision of Miss Carrie M. Watson, who has devoted a great deal of time in collecting and assembling the objects and artifacts found there. The collection was originally started in 1927 when Professor Blackman, executor of the Robinson estate, presented the University Library with some valuable historical items, but the university first governor of the state of Kansas. Since then various citizens of Lawrence have added pieces to the collection, so the Lawrence room has become a veritable museum of Lawrence, including an array of artifacts, a wild, almost uninhabited prairie; then Jim Lane, John Brown, and Gov-
'Lawrence Room" in Watson Library Depicts Early Days of Kansas History
A performance of "Accent on Youth," starring Earl Barry Marmore Colt has been arranged in Fraser theatre for the evening of Feb. 8.
Miss Colt, who is the only daughter of the famous Earl Barry摩里, is touring the country this winter with the play which ran 228 performances in New York and among the ten best plays of last year. It is one of the plays that are on tour this winter as parts of a nation-wide movement to revive the legitimate theater and establish points of theoretical interest in a few of the larger Eastern cities.
Stage Showing Arranged of "Accent on Youth" for Feb. 8
Miss Colt played her first Broadway performance three years ago with her mother in "Starlet Sister Mary" the play that was the sensation of the 1833 season. She stars in Miss Colt a future as brilliant as the wore of Ethel Burry Harvey has been.
The play is the story of a middle-aged playwright who is loved by his young and attractive secretary. Believing that it is impossible for so young and beau-
dilual a girl to love a man as old as he was. A man is still a boy by loving by pushing her into the arms of a man as young and attractive as she. The missing complications make for very difficult choices.
With Miss Coli are such actors and actresses as Alice Keating Cheney, a founder of the famous "Jitney Players." John Maroney, who has had a wide career in the movies and on the stage. Douglas Rowland who plays the male lead in "Accent on Youth," starred in the Broadway production of Maxwell Anderson's "Saturday's Children" and consistently on the New York stage.
It is not often that a theatrical company of the caliber of Miss Colt's appears on the campus. It is hoped that everyone will take advantage of the low prices which range from fifty cents to one dollar to see this fine production.
Trenton, N.J., Jan. 27—(UP)—he would Harold Hoffman today he would grant him further reprieve to Hugh Patterson and further development should warrant.
Gets No Further Reprieve
Hoffman said he had no intention of calling a special session of the court of appeal on the question of "if the finding warrants it." He pointed out that any new evidence first would be brought before Supreme Court and would be judged by Hammerson's Fennington trial.
Meanwhile an informal canvas of state legislators showed it was unlikely that any resolution asking for the imposition of Hafman would be introduced.
GENE LLOYD,
The mid-s semester valsity schedule for Monday, Feb. 3, has been postponed until Saturday, Feb. 8, due to the students not returning at that date. Preston Anderson and his 14-piece orchestra will play. The band will perform in a Kansas City radio station and a violin and harp trio.

--well or the Lawwee room; depends 'The destruction of Lawrence and massacre of its inhabitants by the rebel Army.' In 1785, Lawrence is the only things left from Lawrence's first hotel, the Free State, which was burned by Quarrill.
Lawrence is like no other town in Kansas. It is more like a bit of New England, transplanted into the midst of the prairie. The town is built like a New England town. Like Worcester, it was named Lawrence for whom Lawrence was named, lived, Mt. Oreal, the site of the University, was named for Lawrence's Oread Institute in Worcester. The first citizens of Lawrence were New England citizens. Lawrence was the English Engrigant Aid Company; valiant men and women who fought bravely and even sacrificed their lives for the cause of freedom
Lawrence was burned three times in its early days by enemies of its founders. Once by Quantill, once by the rebel Guerrillas, and once by the note-taker William S. Stern, the issue of Harper's Weekly, on the east wall of the Lawrence Room, depicts
Henry Ward Beecher was quoted in the New York Tribune as having said, "There is more moral power in a rifle, so far as the slave holders in Kansas are concerned, than in a hundred Bibles." A quantity of rifles and ammunition had been smuggled to the United States by members of labelling the boxes they were packed in "Bibles." Afterward these rifles were popularly called "Beecher Bibles." One of the original "Beecher Bibles" may be found in the Lawrence Room.

To Complete Interviews
Representative of General Electric Company To See Graduating Engineers
The "college contact man" of the General Electric company, R. H. Means will complete interviews with 40 grads and postgraduates in electrical engineering here today.
The company sends a representative here annually, and to other engineering schools in this part of ite county, to find prospective employees. Of the 40 interviewed here, probably eight or ten percent are from the company within a month or two.
All the engineering seniors who are to graduate this semester and in June have been urged to arrange for an interview with Mr. Mcans. Several from the physics department have also talked with him.
After he has interviewed all the prospective candidates in this section, Mr. Means will be ready to select those for jobs. In years when business conditions are better, the General Electric company usually takes many more. In 1900 they took many of the graduates they could get from the school of engineering here.
The two sons of Dean G. C. Shaad George and Paul, are both working for the company.
New Cooling Unit Installed
A new cooling unit was installed last week in the 20 degree incubator room of the bacteriology department in Snow hall. The old one, which had been there since the building was erected, proved unsatisfactory.
To Address Student Forum
Dr. J. P. Warbasse to Discuss Co-operative Movements in United States
Student forums, according to Lyman Fields, president of the Men's Student Council, will be continued next semester when the forum committee presents Dr. James Peter Warbause, who has a large interest in top of cooperative movements.
Dr. Wrathace is a former surgeon, author of medical books, and medical lecturer today. Immediately after the surgery, he discussed the problems of the consumer, and since has devoted most of his time to the study of the new co-operative movement. He is a former member of the Consumer Advice Board of the NRA.
Dr. Worhase will be in Kansas City immediately before his lecture for a regional meeting of the Consumers Cooperative association. Kagawa, famous Japanese Christian worker, will also be there, and will address the convention. His work as a service operatives as a solution for the pressing problems of the Japanese.
The co-operative movement is an old one in Europe, and was brought to this country largely by Scandinavian settlers. It did not gain much impetus, but it still provided the prices paid to the producer and price paid by the consumer became painfully evident. It has no connection with various self-help agencies devised by persons on relief, but is merely an organization for buying in and returning the money thus saved to the constituents at the end of the year.

Kansans Gather At Forty-fourth Annual Banquet
Republicans Expect to Hear Landon's Presidential Announcement Tomorrow
Tomorrow nearly 12000 Republicans and Kansas well-wishers will descend on Teppea to celebrate the forty-fourth annual Kansas Day, as well as the seventy-fifth year of statehood, and to hear the expected announcement by Gov. Alf M. Landon that he is a candidate for the presidency of the United States. Although Landon, up to date, has consistently refused to indicate his probable action there is a strong feeling that he will serve in a strenuous posture his availability by a strongly-warned attack on the administration.
Kansas Day as originated in 1892, when a group of Young Republicans rebelled against the "old guard." Since then the scope of the day's activities has broadened considerably, to include a general promotion of party harmony, the state's holiday, and an increase for announcement for office.
This year's Kansas Day will be the first to see a presidential announcement of any consequence. Landon is conceded to be an outstanding prospect for the Republican nomination, in view of a possible management of the state's business.
He as received much publicity by merely "sticking to his knitting at home." He has made only one speaking trip out of the state, the one to watch a nationally broadcast speech attracted much attention. He has not been aware, however, to receiving a constantly increasing flow of business men, newswriters, reporters and others to feel him to and see if his wildly heralded black-ink budget is not a myth. It is with regard to this state of public interest that many men say tomorrow is the ideal time for him to participate months before the national convention.
Frank G. Todd, president of the Kansas Day Club, estimated that more than 5,000 persons will come to Topeka from other states. Special trains will come from Oklahoma, Kansas City, St. Louis and Nebraska.
The only men thus far to have announced their candidacies for office are Leslie Edmonds, Wichita banker and sports writer, for the governorship; and Carl Friend, lumberman and banker, for the lieutenant governorship. For these roles, they will be Wednesday. They probably will include, for the gubernational nomination: Will G. West, clerk of the federal court at Topeka, and a member of Landon's "board of strategy"; former governor Clyde M. Reed, Parsons newspaper publisher; Harry Darby, trustee of the New York department; Lieu-Governor Charles W. Thompson and Dr. James M. Scott, member of the parole board.
A large number of Young Republicans will attend the festivities, and the secretary of the Kansas Young Republican, George M. Houston, Wichita, will deliver the "Toast to Kanas" at the banquet Wednesday night.
This year's celebration is especially significant since it marks the 75th anniversary of the admission of the state to the Union. Kansas Day clubs in all of the larger cities over the country will hold celebrations that will hold celebrations at the same time.
Players to Tour Kansas
Players to Tour Kansas
Dramatic Organization Will Give "Olympia" in Leading Towns
The Kansas Players, dramatic organization of the University of Kansas department of speech and drama, will present their production of "Olympia," the production at Fraser theater Feb. 17. The players will carry their own scenery and contours by trick and play in a team environment. Parsons as well as other Kansas towns.
Last year a movement for a road trip by the Kansas Players was undertaken too late to be made a reality. The play under consideration at that time was "The Lakers," which is to be presented to the public again Wednesday over KFKU.
It is hoped that the tour will arouse interest in the legitimate theater, and give towns throughout the state a chance to play. University is doing in play production.
The tour has been arranged through Guy Keeler of the University Extension Division.
