Allen Drills Squad In Stiff Workouts For Missouri Tilt
I
Tigers Will Play Two Games Monday and Tuesday; Kappleman Stars in Practice
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY, JANUARY 4, 1935
Dr. F. C. Allen sent the cage squad through another stiff work yesterday day afternoon in preparation for the march to Missouri here Monday and Tuesday nights.
After a short session of free throw practice and general limbering up Dr. Allen sent the players on the court for a short chalk talk, explaining the weaknesses of the squad in general. In the serimma ge session that followed set out the stressed and the squad was cautioned against taking wild shots at the basket.
The red team had Welhausen at center, Allen and Shaffer at forwards, and Lutton and Harris were at the guard positions.
At first the two teams played on even, terms with neither team showing a smooth offense. The white team soon settled down to a passing game and were able to make their set plays work to a good advantage. Noble and Kappleman were outstanding on the white team. Harriet lined up from last at short and took for practice until Christmas vacation and Lutton, sophomore, played good ball on the red squad and should make a strong bid for the first string.

The Jayhawkers will go into the game Monday as favorites to make a successful start in defending the Big Six championship which they have held for four years. The team has a wealth of reserve strength and if they can get started they should be able to take the measure of the Tigers. Missouri lost both of their pre-season games while Kansas has won two out of three
The white team in the scrummage period started with Welles at center, Ebling and Noble at the forward posts and Grug and Kunkleman at guard.
Coach George Edwards, of Missouri notified Dr. Allen last evening that he would bring 10 out of the following men's games for the games Monday and Tuesday;
Eugene Thompson, Bernard Passer
Sam Burk, and Ralph Beer, forwards
Kenneth Jorgensen, LaVerne Strom
Grant Cooper, William Newall, Harry
Hedderson, and Evan Powell guards
Ernest Shafter and Dan Hanley, centers.
The team will arrive in Lawrence or the Santa Fe sometime before noor Monday.
Henderson Will Discuss "Economies of a World of Plenty"

Graduate's Investigations Have Made Possibe the Tinting of Silverware
by Robert G. Patt
Lavender loving cups and tinted silveryware are some of the artistic effects (tha may result from a Kansan's investigations of electrode processes. Dr Jesse E. Stareck has obtained much previously unknown technical data and some of the first workable theories in the new process of the color-plating of metals. At present he is engaged in perfecting his methods commercially for the Bur-Rusto Plating Company of Kansas City. By an elibrate electrolytic solution he can paint give metals permanent color of any shade of the rainbow, and numerous degrees of opalesence and brilliance can be controlled for each shade. Dr. Stareck has produced more than a hundred distines hus.
Mr. Stareck received his doctor's degree at the University of Kansas last year. He made most of his investigations in the chemistry laboratories here
County Safety Council To Meet Here Jan. 10
F. C. Lynch Will Open Drive Against Automobile Carelessness
F. L. Brown, professor of applied mechanics, president of the Council, is making final arrangements for the open meeting, and supervising the work of several key councils in Bodhin Eudora and nearby communities in the county.
The Douglas County Safety Council will hold a public meeting in Marvin hall auditorium Jan 10 for the benefit of members and staff of the Council in the safety activities of the Council
Other business of the meeting, will be discussion of the "safety responsibility act" to come before the Kansas legislature soon. The law would enact machinery to hold motorsists responsible especially for damage of property and life.
F. C. Lynch, a graduate engineer of the University, and director of the Kansas City, Mo. Safety Council, will address the meeting at 8 p.m.
The local safety group was organized early in October after Governor Landon made a strong appeal for the building of a safety fence with a growing traffic casual list.
Professor Brown said that when the Council in Douglas county gets into operation it will post monthly a poster at points where people see them, such as in a filling station or prominent intersection. Talks for safety, meetings held in the schools, motion pictures, and other agencies of communication will be employed in the battle against carelessness.
The Lawrence group has 41 persons associated actively in the safety drive. Lawrence was one of the first communities to take the suggestion of Gov. Warren Brown, and readily "because it is primarily an educational community."
Names Invitation Committee
George A. Fryb, b35, president of the senior class, today announced the members of the senior invitations committee. The committee is composed of Orin Shepherd, b35, chairman, Emma J Swainey, fa35, Eusten Silliman, fa35 and Daniel Kovacs, b35. The committee will take bids for the engagement of the invitations.
Allen Crafton, professor of dramatic art, announced today that the name of the next production of the Kansas Players would be announced sometime next week. The play is also to be cast during the week. It will be presented early n February.
The present methods of plating metal with other metals are based on simple electrolysis, a process by which, in electrochemical reaction, the ions of one pole, known as the anode, are given to another pole, the cathode. In the silver-plating of a spoon, for example, a copper spoon is suspended on the cathode, and as electrical current passes through the solution, the spoon receives a silver coating from the silver anode.
under Dr. Robert Taft and Dr. H.P.
Cady, and presented his dissertation for
degree upon the subject.
Dr. Stareck developed his color-plating process with the Haring cell. This cell differs from the ordinary electrolytic bath in that it has two center potentials, separate from the regular electrodes, from which the variations in chemical reactions can be measured. H. E. Haring of the United States Bureau of Standards developed this unique apparatus, but Dr. Stareck worked on a new variation of Haring's work in testing the claims Haring made for his cell. Nine common electrolytes, or plating solutions, and platinum electrodes were the materials for the experiments which proved the reliability of Haring's device.
Although there have been previous patents, articles, and experiments developing the color-plating process, the systems developed by Dr. Stureck have produced plating regarded as incomparable in brilliance, uniformity, opa-ence, durability and heat resistance.
Variations in color in the color-plating of metals depend on the length of time of immersion. The colors appear
Gives Demonstration
Vesper Will Be Held Sunday
Program Includes Selections by Many Noted Composers
The seventy-sixth vespar organ recital of the school of fine arts will be given Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock in the University auditorium by Prof Laurel Everette Anderson.
one program will include selections from Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Guillant, and Wagner. One of the loveliest numbers will be Wagner's "Prelude to Lohengrin" which is based entirely upon a single motive expressive of the sanctity of the Holy Grail, of when the angels are preparing knights. The motive is first heard upon the high notes of the violin chair rising to a magnificent climax then dying away again to the ethereal harmonies with which it first began.

Ralph Bennett to Furnish Music for Sophomore Dance Jan. 11
Rice Is New Hop Manager
The appointment of Jack Rice, c'38, to work with Billy Hampton, c'38, completes the stuff of Soph Hop managers, according to Arnold Gilbert, president of the class of 37.
Ralph Bennett and his orchestra,
"Seven Aces—All 11 of Em." has been engaged to furnish the music for what promises to be the most successful class party of the year. The Soph Hop, one of the few four hour parties of the year, will be Friday, Jan. 11, from 9 to 1.
Bennett started his career with a seven piece band known as the "Seven Aces". When the trend in the orchestra led to larger bands, Bennett augmented his band from seven to eleven. He retained this original phrase, hence the name Ralph Bennett and his orchestra "Seven Aces, All 11 of Em."
In addition to his band, Bennett features two singers. One, Katie Kei Southern songbird, who made her debut on the air at the age of fifteen, was featured for ten months on the NBC program called "Happy Days in Dixie" over a hook-up of fifty years.

William C. Beedow Dies
Superintendent of Printing Was at Haskell for 19 Years
William C. Bedding, retired superintendent of printing and instructor of printing at Haskell Institute, died at his home at 1529 Kentucky street early this morning, at the age of 64. He had suffered intermittently from heart trouble, and had been seriously ill for several weeks.
That the printing instruction at Haskell was thorough and practical is evidenced by the number of Indian students who are successfully following the trade. When Mr. Bedlow retired on Feb. 1, 1934, a former student of his, Allan Shepard, was called upon to take over his work.
In the absence from the city of Supt. Henry Roe Cloud of Haskell Institute, the following statement was made at his office: "It is with deep sorrow that the former co-workers of Mr. Bedow at Haskell learn of his death. He served Haskell Institute faithfully and well for a period of 19 years. His efforts were in perfect co-ordination at all times with the aims and purpose of the Indian man whose character and every act were above reproach; Indian boys who have studied printing under him have been immeasurably benefitted by the contact."
ALLEN INVITES KAW SCOUTS

An engineering student at the University of Texas even the account between the Engineering and Law School recently when his attempt to kidnap "Peregrinus" plaster-of-paris patron saint of the Laws, at their annual banquet resulted in its destruction in the ensuing struggle.
"Alec," the patron saint of the School of Engineering, was destroyed by law students in 1927. Engineering students have tried many times since to kidnap or destroy "Peregrinus," a figure with the head of a long billed bird, the body of a kangaroo, shores on the two fore feet and a boxing glove on the lone hind foot. In 1931, the engineers kidnapped and destroyed what was subsequently found to be only a copy of the patron. Ralph Immel, the attempted abductor at the recent banquet, gained entrance

Kappas Open Student Funds
Worthy Sophomore Women To Receive
Financial Help
Kappa Kappa Gamma, national social sorority, announced today that its Student Aid Fund was available to college women of the University again this year. This loan fund is open not only to Kappas, but to girls of other sororities or non-sorority girls. A girl, to be eligible for a loan from this fund, must have completed her freshman year, show a real need, have certain recommendations, and promise to repay the loan by a certain time. For application blanks or further information, students may write to the executive secretary of the sorority, or call at the office of the dean of women.
In addition to the student aid fund, the Kappa Kappa Gamma organization, at their national convention last summer, arranged for three graduate fellowships of $500 a year each, to be awarded to outstanding girls, either sorority or non-sorority, who will serve as chapter members and they have chapters. The graduate work, however, does not necessarily have to be done on those campuses.
