Spring Semester Finds Enrollment Increased by 327
CSEP Employment Enables Many New Students to Enter University
That working students be allowed to enroll early to enable them to arrange courses that would not conflict with their work was a suggestion made last night at a meeting of the Self-Supporting Students association.
"It seems to me that this is a worth while idea," said Fred Ellsworth, adviser of the organization, "and I see no reason why it can not be accomplished."
Dorothy Johnson, c35, vice president and presiding officer, appointed a committee to investigate the matter and place it before the proper authorities.
Mr. Elsworth reminded the students that they must continue to look for jobs for the ones who were unable to get employment by the CSEP because of some technicality.
The organization voted to hold a social meeting next month for all CSEP workers and self supporting students. A committee consisting of Henry Werner, men student adviser, Charles Sternberg, c'unel, and Kalita Kirkendall, b34, was appointed to make arrangements for this social meeting and to set the date for it.
A committee consisting of Bill Robb e'uncl, Lowell Erickson, e'34, and Free Epp, m'36, was appointed to make nominations for the election at the next regular meeting.
The committee to investigate the early enrollment matter consists of Charles Sternberg, James Polkinghorn, c'36, and Dorothy Johnston.
Automobile Bearing Illinois Lisceus Found in Possession of Couple
Iowans Accused of Theft
Through information given by Leland Sparks, c'35, Lawrence police were able to arrest and jail Darel Reed, about 19, and Coline Showers, about 23, both of Des Moines, Iowa, accused of stealing a car. The arrests were made about 10:40 last night when local officers, following Spark's information, found the car, a police cruiser in the intersection license plate, in the 600 block on Massachusetts street.
Following the car on into town to see if it would stop, Sparks went at once to the police station and told of his experience and where the car had parked.
Spark's suspicion was aroused when, upon returning from Topeka by the north road, last night, the car passed him at a high rate of speed. He noticed that the car, a blue Pontiac with red wheels and no spare tire, carried an Illinois license plate. This brought to his mind a news story in the Kansas City Times yesterday morning concerning the flight of "Pretty Boy" Floyd, notorious Oklahoma outlaw, from Wyoming Tuesday in a car which answered that description and bore an Illinois tag.
It was not until this morning that two police found definitely that the car had been stolen. When taken into custody, last night, Reed declared that the car belonged to his mother, Mrs Bessie Reed. Reed said it was a morning revealed, however, that the car belonged to the Rev. S. H. Zendt of Galesburg.
Both prisoners are being held in the county jail pending investigation by department of justice authorities.

Word 'Person' Dates From 100 B. C., Asserts Professor Allen Crafton
"The life history of a word may be calm and commonplace, as are the life histories of some people," said Prof. Allen Crafton, professor of speech and dramatic art in the fourth of a series of lectures on the topic at station KFKU, last night. "One the other hand, it may be turbulent and full of interesting adventure."
He went on to say that the word which he would discuss was a word of robust health, "Person." "The word person is from the Latin "persona" which denoted through and sound, and therefore its original meaning was a sounding through, or to sound through."

Five Schools in Contest
NUMBER 97
Springfield, Mo.—(UP)—Five schools plan to send representatives to an oratorical contest at Drury college here, March 2. The following schools will participate: William Jewell, Missouri Valley, Tarkio, University of Missouri, and Westminster. Orations are limited to 2,000 words.
"A story tells us that Rosina, a " famous Roman actor, introduced masks to the stage because he had the misfortune to squint. A " personas" was a mask which hid the hidden nephphone which permitted the voice to □ sound with greater power."
He pointed out that the word "persona" was born about 100 years before Christ, and that she was called a metinine word by the Romans, and so has been given a sex which we must acknowledge. During the days of her early youth she remained a mask, and performed her simple duty of designation wholly unconscious of the fateful days ahead of her.
"She, 'persona' or 'person', has developed into a complex, enigmatic, often troublesome character She is still both the mask and the weener of the mask. She is in vigorous health, shows no signs of gray hairs, and gives promise of living to delight and annoy many generations to come."
National Defense Discussed

Logan Trains Cunningham
Glenn Works Out at Washington Under Former Kansas Coach
Glenn Cunningham has been in Washington, D.C., this week, training under the direction of a former coach at the University of Kansas, Roland Logan, now at George Washington University, in preparation for the N.A.A.U. Games tomorrow.

Cunningham has not done much running this week, while the other two have worked harder. Bonthron has run only one race and he may not have reached his best running condition.
Semester Registration Enlarged by CSEP Work
More new students registered for the spring semester this year at the University of Kansas than did last year, thanks largely to the CSEP, which has given employment to 350 students. This year the number of new students registering was 327, compared to 289 last year.
Enrollment Increased by New Students; 90 Have Jobs
The number completing their work at the end of the first semester, or withdrawing for other reasons, cannot be ascertained until all records of fees paid are checked, which will be about March 1.
The total number of different persons registering at the University since the opening of the fall semester in September is 4007. Last year on this date the number was 3997.
Of the 327 students first registering for the spring semester, 99 are employed on CSEP. These students were not attend- enly University in January, of this year.
QUOTA OF JOBS IS FILLED
new Changes Are Made in Positions Assigned
Reports to the Chancellor's office last night indicated that the full quota of 235 men and 115 women had been filled for CSEP work. Not only have appointments been made, but the appointees are actually on the job.
Comparatively few changes have been made since positions were assigned the first of the week. Sixmen, not being able to provide for their fees, have resigned CSEP jobs, and their places have been filled from the waiting list. Only two women have resumed their position, and their assignment have been made, but in the main the project has settled into the semester routine.

All Big Six Teams Scheduled to Play Games This Week
Sooners and Tigers Hold Spotlight of Conference Basketball Title Race
Kansas City, Feb. 23—(UP)—Basketball teams of the Big Six conference will round out a busy week Saturday night when three games bring all contestants into action for the second time in six days.
While the firing will be heavy on all fronts, the greatest shooting probably will occur at Columbia when the eagled Oklahoma University five tangles with Missouri in one of the more important games. A victory would strengthen the Sooners second-place position, but if Kansas State should spring a surprise by overwhelming the Tigers, it would throw the Sooners into the lead. A Tiger victory would move Missouri into a second place tie with Oklahoma. In the third game Iowa State and Nebraska play at Lincoln.
The Oklahomaans have been on a scoring rampage their last two games, and if Ervyl Bross and Bud Browning still have the basket range Saturday night a Sooner victory is indicated. In the last two games Oklahoma has scored 33 points against Nebraska and 68 against Kansas State. Bros acclimate to the game while Kansas State game, while Browning scored 33 points. The two-game total put Bross far in the lead for individual scoring honors with 99 points.
Kansas, fighting to retain the conference title, won the past three consecutive seasons, is still maintaining its slim lead over the Sooners, and on form should win Saturday night at Manhattan. They were pressed to turn back Nebraska 23 to 24 Monday night, however.
The standings
| | W | 1 | L | Pct. | Pts. | Opp. |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Kansas | 6 | 1 | .857 | 109 | 156 | |
| Oklahoma | 6 | 2 | .750 | 334 | 209 | |
| Missouri | 6 | 3 | .625 | 334 | 209 | |
| Kentucky | 6 | 4 | .444 | 266 | 203 | |
| Kane State | 2 | 6 | .250 | 189 | 288 | |
| Iowa State | 2 | 7 | .125 | 104 | 254 | |
Missouri and Oklahoma will warm up against each other in an exhibition of their art.
Wells Will Play Forward; Gray Again Starting at Guard
ALLEN SHIFTS KANSAS LINEUP
Dr. F. C. Allen will shift his starting lineup somewhat tomorrow night at Manhattan where the Kansas cagers will attempt to take the measure of the Kansas State College Wildcats for the fourth successive time this year. The Jayhawkers defended the Wildcats decisively in two pre-season games and later won a Big Six contest in Lawrence 32 to 24.
Dick Wells will jump center as usual, but instead of dropping back to guard will play forward. Harrington will play the center position after the tip-off. Ebling will be at the other forward. Gordon Gray, veteran guard, will be back in the lineup for the first half, and he is ready to play pleman, a sophomore who has shown up well during the last few games, will be his team mate.
An attack of acute indigestion recently made it necessary for Ebling to miss a few practices, but the high-scoring sophomore is back at his post again and ready for play tomorrow night.
Members of the team, which will include besides the starters, Milton Allen, Curd, Shaffer, and Vanek, will leave about 9:30 tomorrow morning for Manhattan so that they may have the afternoon for rest.
George Gardner, former Southwestern College star and a coach at Washburn last year, will referee the game.
