List of Approved CSEP Applications Nears 300 Mark
Quota Which Calls for Aid to New Students Also Being Filled Committee Says
Applications of 273 students for work on the College Student Employment project had been tentatively approved at the close of the interviewing committee's all-day session yesterday. The committee met again this morning to consider the remaining 149 of a total of 422 applications on file. Three hundred and twenty of the applicants are men and 102 are women.
Of the group tentatively accepted for work, 56 are new students. The terms of the CSEP provide that one-fourth of all applications granted shall be to students who were not in school in January, unless enough new students qualify for the work, the University's quota of 350 cannot be completely filled.
Although there are at present enough applications from new students, Fred Ellsworth, director of the University Employment Bureau and a member of the CSEP committee, pointed out today all of them would be likely to qualify.
**Scholarship a Perequisite**
"Unless a student has maintained a satisfactory scholastic average while in school, and unless he can show us that he must have this work to enroll in the University, his application cannot be granted." Ellsworth said. "We have found a splendid note of fairness and willingness to co-operate on the part of the students who applied for work."
An announcement from the Chancellor's office today revealed that Miss Mary Olsen, 21, had been engaged to serve as executive secretary of the CSEP committee. She will supervise the office records, the payroll, and other administrative details of handling the work under the CSEP.
Work Began Yesterday
Miss Olsen, who received a University Teachers' Diploma from the University in 1921, and who took her master's degree at Columbia, has had several years experience in business administration. She served as assistant head of the education department of the Popular Science Publishing Company in New York, and later became assistant manager and then manager of the New York office of the American Education Press.
Work on the CSEP, which was scheduled to start yesterday, was delayed, but the committee hopes to assign at least some of the successful applicants to jobs today or tomorrow. Miss Olsen's headquarters have been established in the alumni office, and she has taken over the administration of the work this week.
Twenty applications were received yesterday from the School of Medicine at Kansas City, Kan., and were taken into a committee in the session this month.
Several additional applications and inquiries from former students who wish to return to school were received by the committee today, and it is expected that they will continue to come in during the rest of the week.
Nebraska Request Declined
Kansas Unable to Go to Lincoln for door Track Meet
Requests of the University of Nebraska for an indoor track meet at Lincoln Feb. 17 had to be declined by the University of Kansas because of the absence of Coach H. W.

--has a peculiar nesting habit. The male of the species seals his mate in her nest by covering it with mud and leaving a slight opening in the top for feeding purposes. The female is so insistent on a steady diet, that often the male will work himself to death, endearing to satisfy the appetite of the mate. When the eggs are hatched, the female, with the help of the male, if he happens to still be alive, forces the mud top from the nest.

A young lady was walking on Oread and wondering just how she could gain admittance to the library, because she could find no steps leading up to the building. Seeing a small boy near by she asked him how to gain the entrance. "They are right over there," replied the lad. Not seeing her way clear, she again asked for the direction.
Students coming to the University for the first time this semester are lost as to just where to enter the Watson library.

Sports Broadcast Planned Basketball Plays Will Be Reviewed by Ebel and Allen
Bird Which Seals Mate in Nest Is Featured in Zoology Club Lecture
In support of his belief that a general educational program upon the rules and technique of the game would materially aid the sport fan's appreciation of basketball, Dr. F. C. Allen, assisted by E. R. Elbel and the members of the various basketball squads will present an unusual program from station KFKU at 6:00 p.m. tomorrow.
The radio program will consist of an explanation of some basketball plays and rules and will be illustrated by members of the team. Mr. Elbel will ask Dr. Allen questions, and Dr. Allen will answer by describing the plays as they are executed by members of the team. He will point out particularly the right way of executing plays, and show where the fan frequently misunderstands a ruling either because of lack of information or misinformation.
Young athletes may also be interested in Dr. Allen's program because he will discuss points which will aid athletes training and in perfecting their game.
Not only will the program be of a highly interesting and informative nature but it will be presented in an unique manner. It will be given from recordings made in the KFKU studio by members of the operating staff. During a recent basketball practice a microphone was placed on the floor of the Auditorium. Dr. Allen and Mr. Elbel stood directly in front of the microphone and the illustrative plays were executed on the floor to the side of the microphone. Throughout the program the noises of practice may be heard, but not loudly enough to detract from the discussion by Dr. Allen and Mr. Elbel.
Another particular bird that brought humor to the meeting was a certain species of South American bird that

An illustrated lecture on the various species and peculiarities of birds was given at a meeting of the Zoology club last night by Wilbur Long, c34. With the aid of motion pictures, skins, and skulls of certain birds, Long was able to observe the movements of the food habits, environments, and structures of the species discussed.
Chubb to Return
The Y.M.C.A. cabinet will meet tomorrow at 4:30 p.m. in room 10 of the Memorial Union, where committee reports will be made and work for the second semester outlined.
Y.M.C.A. Cabinet to Meet
Among the various species related, Long described the peculiar feeding habit of the flamingo, a bird recognized by its bright red plumage, long legs and neck, and black wings. This particular bird's upper bill is so much better developed than its lower one, that it is necessary for it to turn its head upside down and accept the upper body along the bottom of streams and rivers.
Besides these birds, the Shearwater, Cross-bill, and several others were discussed. The subject of migration also brought to light interesting facts, in that birds do not necessarily migrate from one country down to another known to do so from east to west as well.
Preceeding the regular meeting, a dinner was held for the members at 6 o'clock in the main zoology laboratory.

'NEW DEAL BEST RECOVERY PLAN,' SAYS WILLIAMS
Lecturer Views Roosevelt as Most Successful in Answering Problems of World Today
WORKER IS KEYNOTE
Consideration of Jobholder Is Prime Principle for Permanent Relief
"Roosevelt's plan for recovery comes the nearest to answering the problem which the world faces today," Whiting Williams asserted in his address last night in the University Auditorium. Mr. Williams spoke on "Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Roosevelt — Which Has the Answer?"
This noted world traveler finds himself concerned with the permanent well-being of the worker in the United States. He approves of the measure being put forth by the present administration only as emergency acts to get out of the depression.
"More thought and consideration will have to be given them before we make them permanent," he declared. "There is only one way to get relief permanently and that is through a total increase of jobs."
America Needs Resistance
Mr. Williams said that the human beings in their way are going to their way into their thinking rather than to think their way into their living.
"We have lost faith in ourselves and we need reassurance. The kingdom of well being will be in Washington in the future, but there will also have to be a return of individual truth and honesty." Mr. Williams believes that America will see in the future less individualism and more co-operation between the government and business.
"In 1929," he said, "we lived ourselves into a philosophy of individualism. In 1930 and 1931 we refused to face the new conditions and in the last two years we have switched to the extreme of collectivism.
End Confusion In Italy
"However," he declared, "there will also have to be more unselfishness and fair play on the part of individuals."
The lecturer, through his travels and experiences abroad as well as in America, was able to present both sides of the picture—that of the common, unskilled laborer and that of the government. During his visits to the foreign countries about which he spoke, he said that his real purpose had been to get in touch with the masses of the people.
Concerning Italy, Mr. Williams said that Mussolini had brought to an end confusion and disorder which had been apparent in Italy for several months. But he was most emphatic in saying that the ordinary working man in Italy had not made the work progress most people thought.
"All men are forced to join a union," he declared, "but the representatives to large conventions of the various unions are chosen by the government, rather than by the members of the union. I believe that Mussolini has very little in the way of an answer to our problems.
"I discovered, after hearing Hitler speak before a mass meeting for several hours," the speaker declared, "that he talks a lot but really says very little. His is not the magnetic personality that most accounts would lead us to believe. I do not think that Hitler would be able to start a war for at least two years because he has no power to build munition plants."
Mr. Williams is convinced that Hitler will make good politically but that his chief difficulty in making progress will be along economic lines. In his opinion Hitler is a question mark, with no one really knowing what it is all about.
Mr. Williams was impressed with the progress which had been made in Russia during the last five years but he also believed that the way in which the Soviet handled the basic industries was a situation which was creating serious concern and danger. Some of the more serious things which have happened to the unskilled laborer in the last five years, in Mr. Williams' opinion, are the decrease in value of the ruble, decrease in the average wage of the unskilled worker, installation of the individual labor passport, and the starvation which the common people, mostly farmers, have experienced.
Five Million Russians Starve
"Between August 1832 and August 1933," he said, "there were 5,000,000 (Continued on page 3)
