"Uncle" Alex Bryant,
an Ex-Slave, to Celebrate
Eighty-fifth Birthday
"Uncle" Alex Bryant, janitor of Green hall, and a former slave, will celebrate his eighty-fifth birthday, Jan. 14. He works half time daily, and has to get up in the morning, walk a couple of miles in all kinds of weather, and get to work by 6 in the morning.
Alex Bryant was born the son of a slave on Jan. 14, 1849, in Jackson County, Mo. He was the second oldest of a family of ten children. His first name was Owen, and Alex had to watch the horses, and the doctor attended his patients.
In 1875 he was married, and two years later came to Lawrence with his wife. He procured his first job for the University in the fall of 1895 when he acted as junior of Fraser Hall. Then he moved to another place here but he started working for his University again in July, 1918, and has been employed ever since.
Alex had his first school training in 1868, when he completed grammar school in one year; he then attended a high school for one year, and a theological seminary for two years. He is an active Christian minister, but has taken up teaching and writing years. He uses English which would do redit to any college graduate.
Dollfuss Announcing Austrian Fascist State
In the fall of 1863, he and his father were sold, with ten other slaves, for $12,000 to a lawyer who lived in Milan, Texas. During the war, Alex had a chance to go with some northern man to see what he decided to stay where he was.

Toppea, Jan. 11—(UPC)—Miss Margaret Thomas, Kansas woman now teaching school in Turkey, was arrested recently on charges of being a spy, according to word received by her uncle, George D. Thompson, here.

Though the case has not been disposed of finally, Miss Thompson and her hiking companions have been released on bond, according to word to Thompson.

PHI BETA KAPPA CHAPTER
PHI BETA KAPPA CHAPTER
TO BE AT UTAH UNIVERSITY
Salt Lake, Utah, Jan. 11—Culminating more than six years of effort on the part of President George Thomas and members of the faculty, the University of Utah has been nominated by the Senate, upon recommendation of the Committee on Qualifications, as qualifier for appointment to this campus, of Phi Beta Kappa, outstanding National Honorary Scholastic fraternity.
The University of Uthan was one of four universities chosen to receive this distinctive honor from a group of over two hundred universities. In commenting upon the nomination to Phil Bihe Studentship, we are very happy indeed to receive this honor, and we have been working towards this for many years."
MEDICAL STUDENTS TO HEAR
MAYO HOSPITAL EXECUTIVE
Dr. C. F. Dickson, a member of the staff of the Mayo hospital at Rochester, Minn., is to be the principal speaker at a banquet to be held by the medical students of the University next Tuesday night, Jan. 16, at the Eldridge hotel. The banquet is an annual affair and is in the nature of a farewell party for the sophomore medical students who are to leave for the hospital at Rosedale to continue in their work.
Other speakers at the banquet will be Chancellor E. H. Lindley, Delbert Johnson, m37; and Don McFarland, m36.
Time Clock Erroneous
Students on or about the Hill at 8 o'clock last night are probably wondering why the University whistle was blown at that time. An investigation has shown that there was no reason that students should hear that the time clock which automatically blows the whistle, had not been shut off.

NEW DEAL TO MAKE RAPID
CULTURE CHANGE SAYS IRON
Columbia, Mo., Jan. 11—(UP) The New Deal in living-longer-hours of play, shorter hours of work—is destined to bring rapid and basic changes in our cultural and educational life, both for the mature working man and the student, Dr. Theo W. H. Irian, dean of the School of Education at the University of Missouri, believes.
A great deal more emphasis is to be placed upon the so-called "fails" that now are suffering from reduced budgets and other depression lills. Avocations are going to take a prominent place in the educational and entertainment sun, he predicts. Woodworking, home economics, things that teach one how to enjoy a life already earned—these are things that will find a popularity they never before have enjoyed.
Dr. Rien spoke at the University at a convocation for students of the School of Education last week.
