Jayhawk Favored to Defeat Aggies on Court Tonight
Dr. Allen Is Expected to Start All Lettermen; Paul Harrington is Captain
Tenight's game will have no bearing on the Big Six standing of either team, nor will the return engagement which the Jayhawks will play in Manhattan Friday night, Dec. 15. Consequently, the ruling which limits the substitution of players in any one game and the number of players which may be carried on any conference trip to nine will not be enforced. Dr. Allen said today that he expected to use most or all of his substitutes.
LAWRENCE. KANSAS, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1833
The game was arranged by Herbert G. Alphin who has had charge of programs between the halves for several years.
University of Kansas Jayhawkers and Kansas State College Wildcats will meet on the court for the seventy-first time here tonight. The outstanding favorites because of the return of seven lettermen and the addition of eight promising sophomores, the Jayhawkers will seek to reverse the scores of last year's non-conference pre-season games both of which the Akgies won, by scores of 31 to 27 and 15 to 11.
As an added attraction, a five minute game will be played during the half. A team will be chosen from members of the two teams that played in the auditorium last year, the Lawrence All-Stars and the Jayhawk Juniors, and the "BF" team of Oread Training School, Bob Allen, son of Dr. F. C. Allen, will coach the first team, and Phil Beatty, a practice teacher in the class of physical training, will direct the Oread team.
In past years the Jayhawkers have won 43 games to 27 for the Wildcats and have amassed a total of 2,048 points to 1,868. The Jayhawkers broke even with the Aggies last year by winning the two Big Six games that counted in the championship race, 36 to 24, and 33 to 25.
Allphin Arranges Minor Game
Lettermen Expected to Start
Paul Harrington, the only two-letter man on the squad, has been named acting captain for tonight. Other squad members will be chosen on a basis of ability rather than seniority, the coach said.
However, it was considered likely that Dr. Allen would start a team entirely composed of lettermen. The probable starting lineup will include Wells, Hutchinson, center; Paul Harrington, Kansas City, Kan; and Robert Curd, Lawrence, forwards; and Ernest Vanek, Ellsworth, and Gordon Gray, Newton, guards.
Probable substitutions will include William Shaffer, Russel, for Wells; Raymond Urie, Ellis, or Ray Ebling, Lindsborg, for Curt; Roy Klass, Lawrence, for Vanek; Bob Oyler, Lawrence, for Harrington; and Francis Kappleman, Richmond, for Gray. Other squad men who are likely to get into the play are Ambrose Wolken, Richmond and Elwood Laub, Kansas City, Kan.
At the present time several sophomore players are out who will not be eligible until after Christmas: Milton Allen, Lawrence; Frank Lynch, Kansas City, Mo.; John Peterson, Winfield; Devon Lemster, Valparaíso, Ind.; and Fred Harris, Lawrence.
Three Lettermen at K. State
Little or no attention was paid to the freshman basketball crop at Kansas State last year so intent was the coach upon his duties of developing a winning varsity squad, and most of this year's sophomores will require seasoning and plenty of practice before they will be able to fit into the vacancies.
Three Lettermen at R. State
Kansas State, although recently strengthened by the Big Six action which restored the eligibility of Donald Hutchinson, Hutchinson, a guard, will present an offensive built around only three lettermen: Captain F. W. "Bus" Boyd, guard; Ralph Graham, El dorado and Oren Stoner, Sabethe, both forwards. The Aggies are considerably weakened this year as a result of the graduation of most of their outstanding squad members last year, Skradski, Breen and Dalton, regulars, were lost.
Ernest Quigley, St. Mary's will referee tonight's game, which will begin at 7:30.
Coach Frank Root is further hampered by the fact that he has had his full squad only since the close of the football season. Several of his best players are football men including Graham and Stoner.
Jayhawker Captain Tonight
PAUL HARRINGTON
Playing his third year at forward, this Kansas player has been one of the outstanding defensive men of the Big Six for the past two seasons. He is the only member of the present Jayhawker squad who has made more than one letter.

Students in Crash Recover
Jack Rice and Roger Klien Still at Student Hospital
Jack Morris Rice, c.37, is in Watkins Memorial hospital recovering from a possible fracture of the skull and concussion of the brain received when a car in which he and three companions were returning from Kansas City early Saturday overturned near Victory Junction.
Roger Klein, 'e uncle', is also in the hospital recovering from severe facial cuts and bruises. George McGrew, b'uncle, and Woodrow Kipp, a high school student from Elsworth, also in the car, were uninjured.
Kipp was driving his car, a Chevrolet roadster and Klein and McGrew were riding in the front seat with him. Rice was sitting in the rumble seat. Near Victory Junction the car ran off the concrete slab onto the dirt shoulder, where it hit a rat and turned over in the ditch. Rice was thrown clear of the rumble seat, his head striking the pavement.

The conference standing of neither team was involved.
University Janitor Traps Own "Duck" Dinner in Fraser Tower
Lem Proddy, inventive genius of Tooneville Trollie fame, has nothing on Hallie Harris, janitor foreman of the University, when it comes to methods of trapping. It seems that Mr. Harris does not know how to handle he has all the swabs, or is it squabs; (anyway let's call them pigecs) that he wants.
Last Sunday night 12 adventurous young pigeons met in the old north tower of Fraser hall to talk over the events of the week following repeal, and the effects it had had on those birds. They also that congregate on the steps of Green hall and make foul remarks about the pigeons above and the co-eeds below.
New pigeons are notoriously like cocks, they venture where angles fear to tread, so into an open window of the tower they go. On entering the tower the leader of the venturesome pigeons noticed a stranger basking upon the fluffy floor of an wire enclosed hut, and start to rizz the "boy for his aloofness. One razz lead to another and the final outcome was that all the pigeons were shaken up, and what it was that was so satisfying to the stranger. Nothing strange about his quarters, but after looking over the hut the question was how to get out.
After spending a few hours trying to find a way out, the pigeons didn't quit agree with that poet that said. "Walls do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage"; to them wire mesh was prison enough. So the rest of the night was spent in reviewing their short lives.
Ever eat baked young pigeons and dressing? No? Well ask Mr. Harris what he thinks about it.
"With the decrease in the value of gold and a rise in prices there will naturally be a return of prosperity," said Domenico Gagliardo, associate professor of economics, speaking on "Gold, Prices, and Prosperity" before 30 members of the Forum society, at the Unitarian church Sunday morning.
Gagliardo Talks at Forum
He stated that gold has a relative value and that prosperity depends on the course of prices. A fall in prices has a marked effect on economic activity. Likewise a rise in prices favors the return of conditions of 1929, he said.
"Gold, Prices and Prosperity" Is Sub object of Lecture Sunday.
"The stabilization of gold, limits the fluctuations of price levels," he continued, "and the value of gold and the dollar dollar does fluctuate. Everything is difficult to explain in complex, and it is difficult to explain the problem of money and banking.
"The value of the gold dollar has been reduced in foreign exchange rates. There is no reason for the present government to attempt to reduce gold in the gold dollar." He concluded his address by saying, "It is impossible to make the problem of money prices simple."
Henry Werner, men's student adviser, chairman of the Society, announced that a series of four talks were based on the article, "Confessions of a teacher," published by researchers, would begin next Sunday. Four professors of the School of Education and two students will take part in this group of talks.
Following his talk, Professor Gagliari answered questions concerning debts, inflation, price levels, credit, and the present purchasing power of gold.

Bondholders Will Meet to Select New Trustee
Reorganization of Fidelity Trust Company Makes Change Necessary
A meeting of the K.U. athletic board this afternoon at 2 in the office of Chancellor E. H. Lindley is to be followed at 3 by a meeting of the bondholders of the University of Kansas Physical Education corporation.
The bondholders this afternoon are to consider the matter of naming a successor to the Fidelity Trust company of Kansas City as trustee of stadium bonds outstanding. The Fidelity has been reorganized as a national bank, without a trust department, and it is now proposed to make the Lawrence National Bank trustee. The change is a matter for bondholders' action this afternoon.
The Physical Education corporation still has outstanding $162,000 in stadium bonds, against a property valued at $640,000. First units of the stadium were erected from contributions of alumni, students, faculty, and friends of the University, as a part of the University's war memorial. Later, bonds to the university were issued to extend the seats to the southward, and when $36,000 of this debt had been paid off, a new issue of $225,000 was made, to take up the $44,000 balance and to build the north bowl. Half the total bond issue has now been retired.
Address at Art Gallery Dedication Stresses Donor's artistic Ideals
Lindley Speaks at Opening
"The ancient Greeks considered private ownership of a great work of art profane. Beauty was for all. In the spirit of this noble tradition, William Rockhill Nelson sought to bring beauty not alone to a few who are highly educated in art, but to all the people," said Chancellor Lindley Sunday at the public opening of the William Rockhill Nelson Gallery of Art in Kansas City.
Chancellor Lindley pointed out that the will of the late William Rockhill Nelson had provided for a board of presidents, consisting of the heads of the Universities of Missouri, Oklahoma, and Kansas who, in turn, appointed three University trustees to have active management of the Nelson Trust and Gallery of Art.
Turning to the plan for a great art memorial, as it was planned by Colone Nelson, the Chancellor continued:
"He conceived art, not as a luxury but as a necessity. He believed in the democracy of art. Furthermore, Colone Nelson conceived of no local institution for his beloved Kansas City. The institution is designed to serve the population of a vast area covered by his great inner worker. His imagination was regional."
The address was broadcast on a radio hain.
Sir Joseph Duvene, famous British collector, with a party of New York art notables were present at the preview of the gallery the night before the formal opening. The heads of all educational institutions miles of Kansas City also were invited.
A crowd of 10,000 witnessed the dedication of the new $2,500,000 gallery of art and its $3,000,000 permanent collection.
A feature of the opening was the showing of James McNeill Whistler's painting of his mother.

Robinson Gymnasium to Recapture Former Glory at K Club Varsity
Robinson gymnasium, scene of many lively parties in the gay twenties, will return to something of its former glory next Saturday evening when the Christmas-K club varsity again turns the basketball court into a ballroom.
Because of the remodelling of the Memorial Union ballroom, Robinson gymnasium is being substituted for the first K club dance.
Before the Memorial Union building was constructed, the larger Hill parties were held in the gymnasium, where the smooth and polished basketball court made an excellent dance floor. The size of the court also allowed plenty of room to dance no matter how numerous we the stags.
The size of the room is proving something of a problem in the matter of decoration. Whether the orchestra will occupy a platform in the middle of the floor or be located at one side, remains to be settled.
Lloyd Lane, varsity dance manager, and Clyde Foldman, president of the K club, are both actively engaged in music, which will be the last one of 1933.
University students are being given an opportunity to co-operate in the Christmas seals sale this week through an extensive campaign directed by students of the University and by Mrs. Seba Eldridge, secretary to the Douglas County Tuberculosis association. The proceeds of the sale will go to a student tuberculosis survey by the student health service.
Members of organized houses and boarding clubs are to be reached by student solicitors. Tables with seals will be placed in the rotunda of the Administration building and in the waiting room of Watkins Memorial hospital for the convenience of students not contacted through organizations.
Canvassing of the houses began early this week. "We are more than pleased with the response so far," said the solicitors today.
Proceeds of Campaign to Be Spent for Student Health
On a basis of 15 cents per student,
houses visited to date have contributed
as follows: Ricker hall, a percentage
of 250: 1245 Louisiana, 100: 1505
83: 1030 New Jersey, 100: 1250
Rhodine Island, 110.
Students to Co-Operate in Christmas Seal Sale
Henry Werner, men's student adviser, in expressing his opinion on the campaign said, "Especially in times like these is the University Christmas Seal sale one of the most worthy of causes. At a time of widespread undernourishment and maltnutrition, the control of tuberculosis becomes paramount among the various measures for the curbing of diseases."
I believe that the University Christmas Seal sale merits every cent of support which it can obtain," said Dean George C. Shaad of the School of Engineering.
MEMBERS OF FRENCH CLUB
TO PRESENT PLAY AT PARTY
The French club will hold its Christmas party tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in room 306 Fraser hall. George Trovillo, fa 35, will play the piano selection, "Prelude in A Minor," by Debussy.

Activity Tickets Claimed at Game Will Be Returned
Recent Violators Will Receive Penalties Later at Hands of Two Councils
Activity books which were confiscated at the time of the Kansas-Missouri football game here on Thanksgiving day, will be returned to their owners it was announced today following the passing f a resolution by the central committee acting upon activity books yesterday.
The activity books were taken up after Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics, and Chancellor E. H. Lindley had issued statements that they were definitely not transferable, and that any books found in the possession of persons other than the owner would be confiscated. Some 25 or 30 books were taken up. The committee which was formed to act temporarily upon the question agreed to return the activity tickets and to furnish the names of the violators of the ticket agreement to a committee, composed of members of both the men and women's student councils, which will succeed them as soon as the council bill becomes effective, ten days after publication.
The committee in its report made it plain that the returning of the tickets in no way indicated that their non-transferable status would be altered, but that it wished to allow the proposed student committee to handle the problem along with other routine duties which might arise in the future.
Miss Beulah Morrison, professor, in the department of psychology, was appointed as the extra faculty member for in the recently added amendment.
Policies of the committee were considered, and the question of seating taken up. No definite action could be taken at the meeting yesterday because the new members added to the committee would vote legally until ten days after the notice of the amendment was published in the University Daily Kansan.
Members added to the committee will include two men from the Men's Student Council, one representative from each political party, and four women from the W.S.G.A. council. The faculty members of the committee remain the same except for the addition of Miss Morrison.
The faculty members of the committee are: Henry Werner, chairman; Raymond Nichols, secretary; Owin Rutledge, vice president; Landon, Karl Klooz, and Dr. F. C. Alen.
