Chancellor Lindley Seeks Continuance Of CSEP Projects
Washington Dispatch Says Officials Will Not Consider Plans Until Next Year
In a special dispatch from Washington, D. C., the Kansas City Times this morning carried a story that Chancellor E. H. Lindley of the University of Kansas in a conference yesterday with the officials of the federal emergency relief administration, urged that the federal student relief begun several months ago be continued next fall. No word of the Chancellor's eastern activities had been received at his office here, today, however.
Chancellor Lindley was told that it was too early to plan ahead for student relief, which terminates at the end of this semester, the dispatch said. The emergency relief program is centerering efforts at present on the drought states.
The Chancellor was said to have pointed out that in these drought states it would be imperative that federal aid be given students and that if the president policy were discontinued, many students would be forced to discontinue their schooling.
The University has at present 350 students employed under the CSEP project. They are paid only for the actual work performed. Chancellor Lindley recently told of one girl student who was subsisting on $1 a week. She refused to accept more than $10 a month, saying that was ample.
Some weeks ago when word went out from Washington that the government aid project for students might be discontinued, Chancellor Lindley expressed a desire that the project might be carried on, even though a partial curtailment of activities was necessary. The Chancellor said that time needed vari-
The University of Kansas was one of the first schools to begin a CSEP program, and Chancellor Lindley is generally credited with having been instrumental in the work of bringing about aid for students who needed employment.
At the University, CSEP work has included general improvement in nearly all of the various departments. A considerable number of the men students have been put to work on building and grounds improvements which have included, the work of leveling and filling in the plot of ground before Watson library, work of excavating and rebuilding in Dyche Museum, etc.
Other students have been employed to carry out extensive projects in various laboratories for the general information of students enrolled in the departments.
In the journalism department, the additional help has made possible a recent survey among the Kansas readers and significant tabulations of results, and well as the revising and recataloging of the journalism school's morgue.
University Party Planned
W.S.G.A. Announces Program for All University Affair, May 29
Plans for an all-University party to be held at the Memorial Union building on the night of May 29, were discussed at a meeting of W.S.G.A. last night.

Butler University Officials Say Marriage Courses Needed
Dean Albert E. Bailey of Butler University has urged that all universities should prepare their men and women for happiness in the life that follows the trek to the altar. The Indiana educator recommends courses in marriage for University students as one of the important topics to be taught.
"I believe that training for marriage is one of the most interesting subjects in the world," Dean Bailey said, commenting on the now famous course in martial relations that is being given at the mid-western university. "It should by all means be taught in some form or other in all colleges."
Cautious at first, Butler University tried out its marriage course in the extension division. Now Indiana Uni- ment offers the same course to undergraduate students.
"This year we are endeavoring to interest the students of our college in a similar course entitled "Preparation for Marriage," Dean Bailey recently said.
College Votes to Offer Kansas History Course
Other Changes in Regular Curricula Are Made by Faculty
The faculty of the College of Liberal Arts yesterday afternoon authorized a number of changes in courses, particularly in history. On recommendation of the administrative committee, History 270 and History 271 are renumbered 170 and 171 respectively. No. 170, New America, covers the period from 1865 to 1834, and No. 171, Greater America, from 1898 to the present.
A new course, No. 173. History of Kansas, two hours, in the spring semester, was authorized, as was also the consolidation of two 3-hour courses in modern Europe into one 5-hour course
Courses in bacteriology and biochemistry were ruled too specialized to be used for filling a group. It was explained by acting Dean Lawson that very few instances had arisen under which these courses were elected for filling a group, but the departments agreed with the administrative committee that the ruling ought to be made.
The department of English was authorized to give a 3-hour course in the language.
The faculty also adopted a rule requiring that the general requirement of a grade point per hour for graduation should be enforced as to the hours in a major department. It had been found in some instances that students were not achieving the required grades declared major, and were making up the deficiency in other departments.
Announcement was made of the nomination of Professors Gagliardo Davidson, Thurreuau, and Stranathan for the two vacancies on the administrative committee. Election will be by etter ballot.
A request that the Latin department be permitted to give a college review source, replacing Latin I, in the spring of 1980, corresponded to the administrative committee.
Acting Dean Lawson spoke briefly of interesting information which he gathered at the meeting of College deans at Columbus, Ohio, recently.
Militarism Is Discussed
Major Koenig Expresses Views on "War Versus Peace"
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 16. 1024
Major Koenig, head of the R.O.T.C. department, speaks before the Editorial I class today, expressing his views as a military man on the problems of peace versus war which are in the minds of every citizen.
"With the short-comings of the people as they are today, with our inability to distinguish adequately between right and wrong and until human nature changes, force is the only means of maintaining internationalism.
"The whole army is interested in civil affairs," said Major Koenig. "They come from the same places and feel the same way that you do about civil matters, and on that basis, you need not fear from the army."
When asked if he believed that military preparedness was the only way to maintain peace he replied:
"It is cheaper in dollars and cents to have a reasonable amount of preparedness so that we will be ready when called upon to defend ourselves."
Word was received at the entomology office of the birth Sunday of a 7½g baby girl, Anna Mae, to Mr. and Mrs. Russell Robinson. Mrs. Robinson is former secretary to H.B. Hungerford state entomologist and professor of that subject.

Ask 'Micromax' Volunteers
Canuteson Seeks Student to Aid in Determining Normal Temperatures
The students who volunteer their services will lie in bed, with an attachment connecting the arm to the machine. They will be able to study and will suffer no other inconvenience than having to cindle themselves to the floor so that they can attend each day until the end of the school term to determine an average.
Notices are being sent from Dean Werner's office to students who might be interested. It is not known how much the offer of the vacation and the meals.

Women Petition For Revision of Rules At Northwestern
Unfair rushing would result as rushes would choose the group with the least restrictions, authorities believe.
W. S.G.A. officers; asserted that with different rules for each house the result would be chaotic, and gave many reasons for keeping the present rules. The importance of health and good scholarship as related to rules was emphasized.

Crowd Approves Basketball Game Under New Rules
Fewer Out-of-Bounds and More Playing Time Are Features of Contest at Gym
The modified basketball rules, with the basket elevated to a point 12 feet from the floor and extended six feet into the court, and with several other innovations, were given a working basketball game that has become the basketball game between the Varsity and the freshman. The varsity won, 46 to 38.
The new game went off fairly smoothly, with a few lapses on the part of officials, and a general tendency of the players to hold back for fear of going out of bounds under the basket. Otherwise, play was aggressive, and the spring weather wore on players who were been going the full 40-minute route.
In fact, under the new rules, with time out while the officials and players were returning to the center after a freewheel, there was added a good five minutes of real playing time. Mike Getto, timing under new rules, stopped the game with 20-minute halves, while Coach Hargiss, timing under the old rules, found that his watch ran 22 minutes, 16.2 seconds for the first half, and a total of 45 minutes 26 seconds for the whole game.
Play Under Basket Open
Perhaps the most noticeable thing in the play under the new rules was the open play under the basket. Repeatedly players caught the ball when it had missed the basket, under circumstances that would have meant an out-of-bounds under the old rules. Only 18 times in the whole game did the ball go into the end zone and thus change hands.
The Varsity's record of making 14 field goals from 81 shots at the basket, and the freshman's 11 scores from 63 attempts is about normal for games under the old rules, and the number of freethrows missed was normal.
Last night's spectators were of the opinion however, that with practice the basket could be hit as readily as the lower ones, with the exception of set-up shots. They would certainly be much harder to make and as a consequence would open the game up, encouraging more long shots.
Coach Allen and Root have arranged for two games to be played between their players next year under the same rules as prevailed last night. One game will be played at Lawrence and one at Sawyer. The outcomes can certainly be made at those games upon the effect of the proposed changes.
Dr. Allen, who mingled the duties of coach, referee, and announcer, declared his satisfaction with the new rules. With more practice, the players will present a smoother game, be believes, and will be able to work out even more effective recovery of the ball when it misses the basket.
Pleases K-State Coach
Arthur Teijohn of Kansas City, and Lee Railsback of Hutchinson, members of next year's basketball team at Kan-root. A bank root, witnessed the whole game.
After the contest, Coach Root said:
"I see some interesting possibilities in the changed rules.
"The higher baskets definitely reduce the advantage of the giant.
"I liked the fact that fewer balls went out of bounds in the end zone, and I particularly liked the neutral one about the men jumping."
Had the game been scored under the regular rule of two points for a goal and one for a free throw, instead of three and one, the final score would have been 32 to 27 instead of the 46 to 38 announced.
To indicate clearly how the new scoring plan piles up the points, the
