Final Exams at Many Schools Are Far Worse Than Here Students at K. U. shouldn't mind the final examinations so much after considering what is done at other schools. At the University of Louvaine, in Belgium, all candidates for doctor's degrees must present, several weeks before examination time, a list of 100 propositions or subjects for thesis. These are circulated throughout the faculty. When the day for examinations arrives the students present themselves, in full evening dress, at the auditorium. The faculty is assembled there and the public is invited to attend. From 9:00 to 12:00 and from 2:00 to 5:00 the students must be prepared to defend any of his 100 subjects from any argument that a faculty member or public visitor may wish to extend. Final examinations may also be shown to be easier here by the fact that in medieval universities, all candidates for examination had to swear a solen oath that, in case his examination was flunked, he would not use a dagger or a sword on the examiner. After this was done, the candidate was permitted to take his examination. New Gale Out in February The University's literary publication, the Gale, will appear early in February with a new cover and several other new features according to a statement made by one of its editors yesterday. This will be the second issue of the quarterly magazine, the first of which was published in November. Robert Gard c, 34, and John Gilchrist, gr., are co-editors of the Gale. Novel Cover and Added Features Installed in Next Issue "The most striking changes," Gilchrist said, "will be in the size, the make-up, and the number of student contributions." The magazine will have 24 pages instead of 16, and the make-up will include one long short-story and a number of brief articles. There will be full length book reviews instead of the short notes as in the last issue. "The students have responded very well to our call for more contributions." Gleibert said, "and we are having some of them selecting the articles to be published." A former University student recently made this remark concerning the Gale, "I wish there had been something like the Gale when I was in school. I might have been a second Shakespeare instead of a farmer." W. M. Howie to Give Review Will Explain Autobiography of Albert Schweitzer William M. Howie, gr., will review the autobiography of Albert Schweitzer, "Out of My Life and Thought," at 10 a.m. on student forum Sunday evening at 7:30. Schweitzer is a preacher, theologian, university teacher, musician, and philosopher who disregarded his high repute among his fellows, studied medicine and went at his own expense to Africa to practice among the neglected black race. The book is less concerned with his life than with his thoughts—why he arrived at his decisions, and explanations for his attitude toward various ideals. He discusses the making of his various books, including his most well known one, "The Quest of the Historical Jesus," his book on Paul, and that on organ playing. Schweizer is one of the most renowned Bach scholars. Private funeral services for Dr. C. E. Orelup, father of fredet Ann Orelup c'35, and Florence Faye Orelup, 22 were held Thursday afternoon at their home on 721 Maine street. Dr. Orelup, who died Tuesday night at Norton after an illness, was married two years, was for many years an ear, ear, and nose specialist in Lawrences. Besides his two daughters, he is survived by Mrs. Howard Ingram, Oklahoma City, a third daughter, and by two sons, Frank Orelup, Shawnee, Okla, Merle Orelup, Muskogee, Okla, and three brothers and four grandchildren. Schweitzer was one of the first to predict the economic crisis America has been passing through during the past three years. "Decay of Civilization," his two-volume book first published in 1976, is now coming out in a new edition.

The runway scaffolding on the south side of the building which was built from the ground to the windows of the ballroom has been completely torn down, and all scaffolding inside except that over the stairway where the hall ceiling is being covered with a temporary finish, has also been removed. The staircase will be made and the installation will be begun on it this noon. In fact with the exception of a few minor details, the general decorations of the ballroom are complete. The ceiling is done in $12 \times 14$ inch blocks of Accounti-Ceotex cane fiber tile, patterned off with indentations; in the main section it is decorated with hugs plaster arches. The walls are of white plaster, and interior wood trimming is of wood given a silver oak finish to match the woodwork in other parts of the building. The north side of the large section has five arches, and the south side has as before, an orchestra stand. At various intervals between the arches plaster motifs with relief of flower designs have been placed. On the west side of the main floor there are three plaster arches above which, in the extended wall, there are three windows: a bay window in the center with a plain window on each side. All have panes divided into small sections. On the west end is finished in the same way, though with only two small windows. The partitioned space at the northeast end of the room has been made into a kitchen, and serving windows have been inserted in the wall. The check room will be on the main floor probably where the main desk is now. Plans also provide for draps and chandeliers for the ballroom as soon as enough money can be collected from oledges. The first Wednesday night varisty will be held in the ballroom, Feb. 14. 'Job Applicants Are Young' Lindley Believes Youth Is Not Acquiring Proper Training "Employment agencies find that 50 per cent of the applicants are between the ages of 16 and 24 years," Chancellor Lindley told the Topea Rotary club at a luncheon meeting in the Hotel Kansan. Thursday. He believes that these young people are not acquiring the proper training to become the best citizens and voters of the future. Only since 1929, he said, "I never had a chance to spend 15 per cent while college attendance has decreased much more than that." He pointed out the need of stressing adult education in teaching the citizen Spooner Thayer Art museum has recently acquired an extremely interesting collection of eighteenth century English glassware in the form of flasks.

Student Meditates While Watching Workmen Change Landscape A spot of almost constant interest to some musing students is the work going on in front of the library. One can lean over the wooden railing kindly provided by fate, and hope that maybe the tractor will turn over or wonder how the workmen ever got the electric wires to the new lamp post, or else they can just lean. Before the strong wire fence was taken away one student used to think what fun it would be to get some person he did not like very much inside the enclosure and chase him around with the tractor. He also wondered how the workmen knew when to stop hauling dirt into the space and start shoving the hump at the south into the hole. It looks as though it is just going to fit. If students were seeing any thing but quic questions Saturday morning they probably noticed a crew of men busy digging up the evergreen trees between Fraser hall and McDowell Road, planted some place on the campus. Wonder what will be put in all the empty space? Oratorical Competition Will Continue This Year Austin Contestants to Be Chosen From Local Winners Prize money for this year's campus oratorical contest has been assured, making possible the continuance of the annual oratorical competition which was started two years ago. Professor E. C. Buchler of the speech department, announced yesterday. As in previous years, two contests will be held, one for freshmen and sophomores and one for juniors and seniors. The freshmen and sophomores will compete the first week in March; the junior-senior contest will come two weeks later. All those who should see Professor Duchler before Feb. 15. From the winners of these contests, one man will be chosen to represent the University in the Missouri Valley tournament in contest *p* *ustin*, Texas, March 24 The contestants may speak on any subject they wish, professor Buchler said. Topics in previous years have been varied; such subjects as "Youth's New Religion," "Deficiency of Education," and various campus problems have been discussed. The speeches in the sophomore contest will be limited to 10 minutes. Speakers for the junior-senior division may talk 12 minutes. A prize of $15 will be awarded to the winner of each division. Second-place winners will receive $10. The annual oratorical contest was started in 1932 by Professor Buchler to stimulate interest in forensics, "There was a time," he said, when a debater was more prominent than a football player. When the Kansas and Baker University teams clashed, the Santa Monica road ran a special train to Baldwin. To Broadcast Celebration Roosevelt's Birthday Party to Be He From Coast-to-Coast Coast-to-coast facilities of both networks of the National Broadcasting company will be utilized to tie together the various elements of the biggest birthday party in American history on Tuesday, Jan. 30, when the whole nation is in honoring President Roosevelt on his fifty-second anniversary of his birth.
