To Attack Record Again Kansas State Hirdle Team Will Compete in Lake Relais Lakes Manhattan, Ken, April 24—The same quartet of hurdlers that bettered the existing world's record for the 480-yard shuttle event at the Kansas relays will try again at the Drake relays in Des Moines Saturday.

The University of Kansas is sendin out letters to twenty thousand big school seniors featuring the .e- event which have happened on the campus that might be of interest to them. Among these events which are featured are the high school track meet, the high school debates, and the high school sweepstake awards. UNIVERSITY SENDS LETTERS TO ALL HIGH SCHOOL SENOR The purpose of these letters is to inform the students in the life and advantages which might be experienced by attending the University of Kansas Chester B. Cummigham, research student at the University, spoke on cosmic rays at the meeting of the Science Club of the University of Kansas City last night. GRADUATE STUDENT SPEAKS BEFORE KANAS CITY CLUB BEFORE KANSAS CITY CLUI Lectures on Science Mr. Cunningham who plans to carry on his research work next summer by taking measurements of cosmic ray intensity every 50 miles between here and the gulf told his listeners that these rays come from all directions with the utmost regularity from the outer space. OINSMORE ALTER Dr. Dinsmore Alter, professor of astronomy, is giving a series of popular talks on scientific topics over the University's radio station, KFKU. Relative Size of Sun Illustrated by Alter Probably, it will happen again many times in the future. (Continued from page 1) The distant planet Pluto would be an excellent one to colonize, if we knew such a catastrophe were to take place within the next few centuries. In such a circumstance human ingenuity surely would devise a method of making the trip if the interval of warning were sufficient. Hodge Podge By Howard Turtle, c34 When a professor peers out over the rims of his glasses, he always looks just like a professor is supposed to look—wise. Not many pedagogues are able to do this effectively, but it is nevertheless the one touch which is capable of transforming an ordinary pro into an extraordinary one. F. H. Guild looks out over his glasses with very good effect not only to his own vision, but to his academic appearance. Tucking his chin down on his vault, Guild rolls his eyes upward. He covers his ears and then tucks in the nails, and thereby lends a certain dignity to his lectures which no other single trait could attain. It is too bad that Professor R. D. O'Leary had to disregard his old pincezne this year in favor of some modern gold-rimmed eyepieces with hooks behind the ears. The old pincezne was an institution. It harmonized beautifully with his mellow personality and gave him a wonderful chance to look out over the rims at his class. Students of restyearn who took work under Mr. O'Leary will never forget that pincess. The diminutive professor always perched the eyepiece on the end of his nose at such an angle that it ttered precariously, always apparently ready to topple off, yet invariably able to do so despite some strange magic which no one can see the professor himself could understand. Only when he read did Mr. O'Leary look through the lenses; the rest of the time he eyed his class over the rims. That princessen was a great thing. It is indeed too bad that the advanced composition professor could not hold court about the increased efficiency of bifluorescens. "Well, if he's supposed to rake up the sand," the officer asked, "why doesn't he have a rake out there?" And in a soprano voice the scout answered, simply, "I don't know, sir. I guess he just doesn't use a rake." At the Kansas Relays Saturday it was sometimes funny to watch the heroic but futile efforts of Boy Scuets to keep track fans in the stadium and away fro the track and field. On one occasion an R. O. T. C. officer commissioned one of the 12-year-olds to go out and tell a man who was standing beside the vaulting standards to get back into the stadium. The scout obeyed, and in a few minutes came back to report that the man had said that he would not come back into the stadium because he was supposed to rake up the sand in the pit after each vault had been made. The A. I. M. E. met last Thursday evening and elected the following officers for the coming year: president, Patrick McManus, e'34; vice-president, Preston Cole, e'35; secretary-treasurer, Fred Boggs, e'uncl.

Prints Will Go on Display Works of Photographic Artists to he Exhibited at Spooner-Thayer An entirely different type of print exhibition may be seen at the Spooner-Thayer Museum from April 24 to May 8.
