UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas SPECIAL EDITION VOLUME XXXII LAWRENCE, KANSAS, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1934 NINETEEN FOOTBALL SQUADMEN TO RETURN NUMBER 1 X NEW SCHEDULES FOR ENROLLING READY FOR USE Complete Instructions Will Be Given to Freshmen in Pamphlets Issued by Registrar and Dean OUTLINE PROCEDURE Schedules for freshman and other beginning students at the University have been prepared and are ready for discussion. Students must be registered, or Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College of Liberal Arts. All new freshmen will be asked by the University to follow carefully the instructions given in the course, even when they register next week. Lawson Asks Students to Follow Suggestions; Urge Personal Conferences Dean Paul Lawson pointed out recently that the schedules have been carefully planned with the best interests of the students in mind and that it is to their benefit to follow the instructions which the University has worked out. Personal Attention Offered Personal aid for those students who have difficulty in arranging their schedules is always available, Dean Lawson said. "The University is so organized as to give counsel and help to those students who need," he pointed out, "and students are urged to let their wants be known and to come to faculty members in college office for personal attention." All freshmen or new students will be required to take psychological examinations preceding enrollment this year as has previously been the case. These examinations will begin at 9 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 13. in the University Three Days of Registration The examination is considered one of the important steps in the entrance of new students, because the examiners must classify the students before time for their enrollment. All freshmen are asked to take their examinations on Saturday Three Days' Registration for the biological examination, but the schedules which have been arranged will be effective for upperclassmen as well as freshmen. All students must attend their first day either from the office of the registrar or the advanced standing committee before being permitted to enroll in a formal departmental examination building. The following registration schedule has been arranged and will bring approximately one-sixth of the energy used each half-day of the registration periods. Monday, September 15 8:30-10:00 K, L 10:00-11:00 M, X 1:30-3:00 A, E J 3:00-4:50 A, E J 8:20-10:00 D, F, U 8:20-11:50 I, N, R 1:20-3:00 H, Q 3:00-4:50 G, P Tuesday.

If the department schedules conflict with required meetings the faculty has asked that the latter details be attended to first and registration immediately. The physical examination which is given to all entering students is as essential a part of the new student's early routine as the psychological examination but cannot be taken until after registration. Appointments for physical examinations will be made for individual students when they register. Students are asked to attend to this detail immediately and to "let nothing interfere with it". This examination will be given on Sept. 17, 18, and 19. Dean of Law School Enrollment Begins Sept. 18 Enrollment will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday, Sept. 18 and 19. In the College of Liberal Arts, enrollment follows the registration form in which certain requirements must be met for an specified enrollment hours. Information about College enrollment hours. Dr. W. L. Burdick, 36 years a member of the faculty, will succeed Robert M. Davis this year. (Continued on page 4) University Faculty Changes for Year Total Four-Score Biggest Changes Made in Law School, Burdick Succeed Davis; 20 Promotions NO BUDGET INCREASE Thirty-nine faculty changes, 20 of which are promotions in rank, will be in effect when the University of Kansas opens its doors for the 1938-39 school year into the spring semester this summer by Chancellor E. H. Lindley following the approval of the University budget by the Board of Regents. Five faculty members have been granted additional leaves of absenteeity because of the promotions, this year, the Chancellor would involve no increases in salaries, the budget for the coming year remaining the same as for last year, a reduction of 30 per cent from three The principal changes will be made in the School of Law, where the long illness and death of Dr. Frank Strong, and the illness of Prof. F. W. Jacob who make changes necessary. Robert McNair Davis, who has been dean of the School of Law for the past five years, has resigned his administrative duties and will devote himself to the work of Dr. W. L. Bardick who is a member of the faculty of the University of Kansas for the past 2 years, will serve as dean. Burkeck Here Since 1885 Dean Davis came to the University in 1893 from the University of Ehaba, which he attended for six years.

Vanek Says Instructions Will Be Given Yearlings Early In many interesting features are of untold value to every student and the well-informed Jayhawk find that his Kansas is indispensable. We urge you especially read the story in the sixth column of this page, as it describes many of the more important features which appear each day. Several new methods for the enforcing of freshman traditions on MT Oread this year have been devised according to Ernest Vanek, president of the K-Club, which will be in charge of the program, the first year he met this year as usual. This week Vanek said that the plan was still being considered but that no pumphlets had yet been prepared. Ms. Vanek said she met each freshman student at the time of his enrollment and to give him the information sheet when he entered Late last spring the K-men issued statements to the effect that pamphlets, containing information for the benefit of freshmen who desired to escape the dreaded paddlings, would be handed out to the new men. Vanek said at that time only freshmen who failed obey the simple instructions would be punished. This road, originally a mixture of gravel and mud, has long been one of the undearest features of the campus drives. Students who parked there often complained of the mud and the high banks of snow which drifted in behind the tall lilac houses in the winter. The project which aimed to hardening work is a continuation of the project which this summer transformed the road into a wide expense of concrete, and will do much to beautify the eastern approach to the campus. To Change 'Frosh' Cans To Change From Troun The decision for denudency in the treatment department was approved after a committee of students waited upon Chancellor E. H. Lindley and asked his Construction of Retaining Wall West Of Acacia House Latest Improvements The latest project on the program of campus improvements, inaugurated last spring, is the construction of a high rear courtyard that overlooks the Acacia lawn and the new pavement which rims from the top of Fourteenth street southward to Blake hall behind Landley and asked 1 (Continued on page 4) When the wall is completed a sidewalk will be laid between it and the pavement, joining the walk which already runs north and south past Wattons hall. The plan also includes the building below the wall and the planting of a row of elm trees along the western ridge of the Acacia backyard. The trees which originally grew there were destroyed when workmen paved the stretch of road. The completion early this summer of The work of filling in the basement left in front of Watson library two years ago when Old Snow Hall was razed has been completed; earth from the University, where the building is located, the ground, and most of the sidewalks have been laid. Approximately 3,775 yards of earth were required to complete the filling and grading process. When the landfilling is completed, 1,000 cubic feet will be in evidence before the library. the pavement on the street back of the power plant has made a smooth drive to the campus from the south instead of the rough cinder road which has previously been used. The pavement was completed with the aid of CSBP labor and government funds. Final construction work on Dyche museum is well under way. The contract to lay new floors and reinforce the building was awarded the Constant Construction company of Lawrence on July 5. Most of the new steel I-beams have been installed, and the contractors expect to start work on the floors soon. Other projects completed this summer included the completion of an addition to the Commons building, painting and replastering in the base-ment of Green hall, and the painting of floors in the composing room of the journalism building. NEWS OF MT. OREAD Federal funds assigned to the University of Kansas to assist students to remain in school enabled 374 different persons to do more than they could beforehand, at a cost of $20,000. One of the outstanding bits of work accomplished was the mounting of hundreds of thousands of insects from an abandoned hibernation had been collecting the past 15 years. Reconstruction of the floors and interior supports of Dyche museum at the University, for which the legislature appropriated $2,000, was started July 1 with the aid of some $700 public works money. The money available is sufficient only for the roughin-in of the floors. First psychological examinations and beginning of registration for the winner semester of the University of Kansas will start Sept. 15. Women students who are "rushed" of the social origin should be expected to arrive by Thursday, Sept. 13. Richard Templem, a graduate of the University of Kansas in 1916, and now at the head of research for the Aluminum company of America, was recently awarded the Carnegie Work. He was a native of Minneapolis, Kan. New Journalism Professor the University of Kansas radio station, KFKU, resumes broadcasting later this month, it will be with 1000 watts power instead of the 500 which the radio commission has required the past three years. The University will present a program featuring educational numbers, and will also broadcast the home football games. Regular lessons in French and in German will be continued this year. ALFRED M.LEE receiver Lee will be a full time instructor succeeding A. J. Graves and W. R. Harley. CSEP Positions Sought By More Than Thousand Only 421 Jobs Open to University; Refuse Increase in Quota Applications for work under the College Student Employment Project at the University of Kansas now total several times the number of applications submitted. A total of 421 positions is allowed under the University's quota for the 1934-35 school year, and between 1300 and 1400 applications are believed to have been received by the university secretary for the University committee. Early in August, shortly after applications were first received here, 750 students had asked for application blanks to be accepted until Sept. 1. A belief that more positions might be added to the Kansas gum was dashed last week when Chancellor E. H. Lindley received a telegram from F. C. Klinke-ferer, acting director of the emergency education division at Washington which read: "Because lack funds, Hopkins rejects extra student jobs drought." The telegram was in response to an inquiry from Chancellor Lindley, following a conference at Lincoln, Neb. Aug. 11. When it appeared an unusually large number of students would apply for CSEP jobs in Kansas colleges, the drought situation was on the minds of attention authorities, authorities, F. J. Kelly chief of the division of higher education of the bureau of education, and L. D. Upson, of her FERA, met 20 educators in Lincoln. Numbers now allowed are 12 per cent (Continued on page 4) NEAR 40 EXPECTED AT FIRST PRACTICE Coach Ad Lindsey Will Check Out Suits to Players on Sunday Preceding Opening Workout on Sept. 10; Seventeen Freshmen to Be Among Grid Prospects Thirty-eight football men are expected to report to Coach Adrian Lindsey late this week preparatory to starting practice for the University of Kansas next Monday morning. The Jaihawk coach will meet members of his squad at the Stadium Sunday to check out equipment so that everything will be in readiness on Sept. 10, the date set as the earliest official time for Big Six practices to begin. Sports, Society, Politics, and Some Scandal Among Topies Found in Publication After checking eligibility qualifications and going over information he has at hand, Lindsey believes he will have 19 of last year's men back in suit along with 17 members of last year's freshman team, one letterman of 1930, and one athlete who came out for Spring prize. PRINTS OFFICIAL NEWS LOSS OF VETERANS WILL WEAKEN TEAM Daily Kansan Has Served Mt. Oread Since Fall of 1912 Mount Oread, termed a "small city" because of its stately buildings, post office, hospital, broadcasting, bus line, athletic facilities, adequate eating houses, and its surrounding attractive residences, is still proud of its newspaper, the University Daily Kanun. It is proud because this city has been accurately supplied the tiny city with up-to-date news year after year, since 1912. Twenty-two years ago Mount Oread a "small, yet noticeably active little city in itself" introduced its first daily newspaper. Campus Opinions Are Many Student leaders saw themselves blamed and praised and even some members of the faculty came in for a share of cross-examination. This column is satirical, surrealistic, comical, and many times blasphemous because all Campus Opinion Campus news, including sports, society, politics, concerts, alumni news, science and many regular features, all of which, however, can not appear in a special edition, enter the columns of this student newspaper. One of the regular features lending itself particularly to thevolving of student opinions is known as "Campus news." These are safety valve for student thought, and through it an opportunity to "hear" the student, is given. The policy of the Kanman allows everyone, faculty and student body alike, to speak his mind freely on any pet subject he may choose. Last year we asked the students waged a "war of words" for and against war through this column. Huge Treat Is in Store for Student Movie Fans at New Lawrence Theaters (Continued on page 5) Students returning to school this fall have a surprise in store for them in the new Granda theater, recently completed by a company of Lawrence merchants headed by Stanley Schwain, owner of the Patee, in a completely rebuilt building across the street from the Vavare theater. The theater will be opened tomorrow right and another special opening will be held on Sept. 15 for the benefit of the college students. The Dickinson theater also will have a special opening Sept. 15. It will close Sept. 12 for remodeling. The plan for finishing the building will light on the outside of the building, new rugs and furniture, the installation of a pipe organ, and the addition of Western Electric wide sound attachments to the equipment new in It is said that the new been added to that already installed will make more feet of neeon than at any other place in Kansas. The building is done throughout in a modern design and brilliant colors. There are seats for 950 persons with 22 inches between rows instead of the usual 28. The building is thoroughly airy and has a complete change of up every minute. The Granada theater is equipped with the latest RCA Viotor sound and picture machinery obtainable. The sound equipment is the first of its kind ever to be installed in any theater and the famous Royx theater in radio city is installing the same kind next week, according to Mr. Schwahn. One of the features of the new equipment is a large daylight screen, which with the special construction of the building, will make the image appear clear and undistorted from any seat in the house. The large neon sign was specially constructed according to the specifications of Mr. Schwahn and embodies a new idea in theater advertising. ties after two years of varsity basketball competition, Dick Wells of Hutchinson. Fourteen of the 20 returning veterans are lettermen, including James Hammers and Kenneth Kell who lettered in 1932, and Tommy McCall, a member of the 1930 championship Kansas team who has not been out for football since that time.

Ornand Beach, giant fallback from Pawkusia, Woka, will probably be considered the greatest loss among the Jayhawk graduates, although four of the regular line candidates who were录取 received their degrees in June. Peter J. Mehrling, three years Big Six tackle, and last year named on the New York Sun's second All-America team, will rank with Bench as one of the most valuable players who will not be eligible to return.

Face Tough Schedule Out of the nearly two score of players, Couch Lindsey will endeavor to build a football team which can weather the 10-game schedule, one of the stiffest undertaken by the Kansans in recent years. Plays will open on September 29 when the Jahyahs meet the University of Colorado team and will end at Columbia in Thanksgiving day in another of the historic Tiger-Jayah hwck claws. In that final game the Kansans will win by one game, a game from the Tigers whom they have held scoreless since 1929. About the prospects of the fast approaching season, the Kansas coach has little to say. "So much depends on the opponent," Lindsey says. "It is difficult to say just what the outcome will be. Each team's morale has a lot to do with the outcome." "I do think, however, that Oklahoma has the makings of an excellent team, and I'd not be surprised to see the Sox win again a good run for championship.
