Tuberculosis Seal Campaign Begins Here This Week
University Students Are Asked to Cooperate to Make Sale a Success
The annual sale of Christmas seals for the fight against tuberculosis openes Monday. The Bonds Committee reports the sale of 16 bonds in Lawrence, and more are expected very shortly. The first, second, and third rounds are donated to Mrs. C. V. Bell Prof. F. B. Dains, and Mr. and Mrs George Kirchhof, of Lawrence.
Organized Houses To Give Support
Students in the University are asked to give their whole-hearted cooperation in this worthy cause. Boxes containing the tuberculosis soils will be placed in the College's Student Center, the basement of the Memorial Union building. At a meeting of the Women's House President's Council, the members gave assurance that all women in organized houses would contribute, as requested, July Jencks, president of W.S.G.A.
In Douglas county, clinics are the major activity. Clinics will be held at which tuberculin tests for children and adults are performed. Tuberculin testing of children, which reveals whether tubercle bacilli are within the body regardless of whether active disease has developed, has assays made available to them. X-rays are given when the physical examination or tuberculin tests indicate the possible presence of active disease. This is all paid for by the employer, and no means of their own for paying.
Organized Houses To Give Support
Lyman Field, president of the Men's
Student Council, has appointed Bob
Williams, c., 36; James Adams, U58,
and George Wright, c., to serve on a com-
munity board. WS GSA. The men's organized houses will probably pledge their support as have the women's.
Preventorium For Cihldren
Douglas county promotes a preventorium for children who do not actually have tuberculosis, but who are in danger of developing it either because they are physically under par or because they have had pneumonia of the members has active tuberculosis.
At the preventorium, which is not to be confused with "sanitarium," these underinvolved children, and those coming from homes containing active cases of tuberculosis, are built up physically. They receive the best of food, plenty of the best of care, and supervised activity that permits and encourages interaction. Thus the child is given the same opportunity to be healthy and happy as his more fortunate playmates and comrades.
Through the contributions of the citizens of Douglas county and the students of the University, the Tuberculosis Association of this county is able to provide all those services to the patients. The varied program of the word and the number of persons assisted by the medical staff over the year remarkably demonstrate the power of the penny that each pays for the Christmas Seal.

About thirty minutes before the Bale-Sig Alip Touch football game has week, a Beta said, "You better come on down to the intramural field the next day," Mr. Lyman never had any statement to give the press yesterday, but I'll bet that he can truthfully say after all our heckling and mockery I break his bones but words are somewhat easier on the body. Regardless of his position at present (that on his back in the hospital), Lyman is going to go on. The Forum must go on.

Monthly Reports Heard in Regular Senate Meeting
New Regulations Govern ing Course Repetition for Credit Are Adopted
Hearing of routine reports occupied practically all the attention of the University Senate at its monthly session yesterday afternoon.
Prof. Eugenia Gallo, chairman of the scholarships committee, reported that last year, including the Commencement awards, 14 scholarships with a total cash value of $980, and 60 loan scholarships totaling $2850. Of the 39 women holding Watkins hall scholarships last year, 36 applied for this award, and 22 new applications were received.
Prof. H. E. Chandler for the committee on relations with junior colleges reported that Highland College, Highland, and Mt. Vernon were listed at the close of the 1934-35 school year, and that for this year Sacred Heart College of Wichita had been accredited. Professor Chandler said efforts are being made to increase Central Association adopted for governing relations in Kansas. He reported that inspections last year related principally to library and laboratory equipment. A road marked improvement is noted.
Dean Paul B. Lawson, for the advanced standing committee, reported that this year, for spring, summer and fall sessions, a total of 1343 transcripts from 1303 students were filed with the committee. Of these, 767 entered the University, 608 in the fall semester. The fact that many who filed transcripts did not come to the University is believed to be due to CSEP work applied for scholastic standing, but did not come when not assigned jobs.
The 608 who entered the University this fall came from 38 colleges of Kansas and from 120 other institutions. School with the largest representations were Kansas City, Kan., Junior College, 37; Kansas State College, 25; Wichita University, 24; Washburn College, 24; University of Colorado, 23; Hutchinson Junior College, 21; Fort Scott Junior College, 21; and Parsons Junior College, 19.
Twenty years ago, about 200 students entered the University annually with advanced standing; now the number is about 800.
Dean Lawn reported that 50 persons applying for advanced standing were deferred to another courtground that their academic record at their previous institution was unsatisfactory.
New regulations governing the repeating of a course for credit were adopted to insure greater uniformity throughout the University, and provision was made that all members of the course be required to attend the close of each semester of the University's regulations regarding the assignment of grades. The advisory committee, in presenting the recommendations, said it appeared that too often a student who failed a class was given when the student meted some other grade probably a "D".

Responsibility Is New Woman's Need Calverton Declares
Social Philosopher Speaks Before Large Crowd in Union Building Last Night
Women have emancipated them-selves morally, but they have refused to accept the social responsibilities which go along with their new freedom, according to V. F. Calverton, editor of the Modern Monthly, and speaker before the second of the series of student forums. A crowd of about 500 persons heard him speak on "Modern Marriage and Modern Morality" in the Memorial Union building last night.
The present state of national morals is due to the failure of American women to use their newly begotten economic independence to a good purpose.
The speaker said that women now marry on a basis of contingency, and do not expect to continue their marriage if it proves unsatisfactory. They have made a fetish of sex, at the expense of national morality.
an answer to questions at the end of his lecture, Mr. Calverton declared that a socialistic or communist state would solve the problem, and pointed out Russia as a country which suffers the least from marital difficulties.
sian Women Independent
Russian Women indispensable. In independent, both economically and morally, but they have accepted their place in society, and work to fulfill
In America, women are completely individualistic and anarchistic, with no sense of their duties, not as women, but as members of society. Girls have accepted the new freedom and now feel that they can live at just as fast a pace as the boys; they look upon marriage more carelessly, and after they are married they do not regard outside affairs with the same horror that they do.
Mr. Calverton advocates a program of sex education in the schools, which will enable young people to choose from a variety of options likely to lead a happy life, and the spread of knowledge about birth control, so as to prevent rapidly lowered rates of pregnancy.
Must Have New Slant
"Nothing is more vicious than the hypocritical attitude of closing our eyes to prostitution and its attendant evils," said Mr. Calverton. "Russia has made it a crime for women to be prostitutes and has practically wiped out that problem, while it is an ever-growing one in the United States. The challenge is to give modern woman a social and revivalist vision."
Mr. Calvinton will leave today for Milwaukee, where he will deliver another lecture. He is the author of a number of books, one of which will be published in February. It is a payoff to novel entitled, "The Man Within."

Italy May Receive Petroleum Supply From Standard Oil
Thirty-Year Monopoly Is Provided in Agreement With Subsidiary Company
By Stewart Brown
(Copyright, 1934, by United Press)
Oil To Be Obtained From Russia
Rome, Dec. 3.-The United Press was formed by unimpaired sources in bright hues to the Italian Americas Petroleum, subsidiary of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, had entered into a merger with the national league of Nations oil embargo.
In the event of the oil sanctions being doped at Geneva, it is said, the S.I.A. would supply Italy with all the petroleum products used in the car-motor of the Italian market.
The oil would be supplied from wells controlled by Standard Oil outside the United States, in order not to conflict with Washington's policy of discouraging oil shipments to the India-Ethiopian wellriggers above normal.
The agreement further stipulates that other shipments may be made from the East directly to Eritrea and Italian waters. The agreement controls the British-controlled Suez canal.
It is understood the oil world be obliquely chiefly from Rumanian wells controlled by the American oil interests and hipped to Italy by way of Hungary, which abstained from the League sanctions.
Italy's mechanized arm in East Africa thus would appear assured of a continuous supply of their vital oil supplies.
Payment Made in Gold Lire
Standard Oil, through its subsidiaries,
is understood to have agreed to send to
the Italian government a credit of
$10 million ($81,000,00) for purchase of this oil.
The agreement would become effective when and if the League declared an oil embargo. The Genova "sanctions" gen- erate from the United States December 12 to consider this sanction.
As soon as the embargo is applied, S.I.A. P. would be given the 30-year management fee and the sale of all petroleum and by-products which are required over and above what domestic Italy is able to produce in Italy or Armenia. It would "working arrangement" with Albania.
Italy's Resources Unknown
The amount Italy will be able to produce is unknown, but officials of the A. GLP, government-controlled company for exploitation of Italian oil are confident that before the end of one year, 80% of the crude oil from their Albanian wells.
An 8-inch pipe line has been completed to the Albania port of Valona, where huge reservoirs now under water are expected to flood. Shipped shipment to Bari where, under government subsidy of 70,000 landfill 70,000 landfill and the AG-LP will build a luxury.
"Hydrogenation" Plant Planned
The company plans to construct a "hydrogenation" plant from German plants permitting distillation of 80% gasoline from crude oil.
Expertes believe if the Italian project in Albania is successful, it may touch deeply into the projected American monopoly.
A announcement of the "gentleman's agreement" will, of course, be up for denial, but after three days of careful checking, the United Press is confident that the information given to it is correct.
The news admittedly will have important repercussion in Washington and Geneva.
It should affect seriously the League's attempt to achieve collective oil sanctions December 12. Russia and Rumania have indicated they will not participate unless assured of at least certain participation by the United States.
TEAGLE DENIES AGREEMENT
President of Standard Oil Terms Re-
port 'Preposterotus Propaganda
New York, Dec. 3- (UP)-Walker C. Teagle, president of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey tonight categorically denied that the Italian subsidiary of his company had entered into an agreement with the Italian government to join a League sanctions on oil were enforced.
In a formal statement to the United Press, Teague termed such agreements as impossible of fulfillment and said
