Talks on Social Insurance
Sociology Classes Hear of Way to Combat Insecurity
"Insecurity is the greatest problem in American life today," said Abraham Epstein, executive secretary of the American Association of Social Security, speaking before six classes of society in central government in Central Administration on Monday at 0:30 this morning. At 11:30 he spoke in "Old Age Insurance."
"The problem of insecurity is the outstanding problem facing all social groups today. The rich and poor alike face the problem of economic insecurity. There is insecurity among the farmers, the working classes, and even in the professions today. It is growing more complex since the hazards of modern life are making the problem of earning a living more difficult."
Mr. Epstein outlined the operation of social insurance, and said that it provides better protection against the hazards of old age, illness, and unemployment. It distributes the risk of insecurity and distributes the burden to the elderly, and provides protection for those who otherwise could not afford it.
Following his talk, Mr. Epstein answered questions concerning the operation of such a plan, about old age pension and the benefits of such insurance being put into effect.
College Faculty Honors Brandt in Resolutions
Sterling Speaks in Commemoration of the Late Dean
Resolutions in commemoration of the late Dean J. G. Brandt were adopted last night by the College faculty. The resolutions were submitted by a special committee composed of Professors M. W. Sterling, chairman; F. H. Hodder; R. R. Morgan; H. P. Cady; and Allen Crafton.
The resolutions were as follows:
The resolutions were as to follows:
"The faculty of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences wishes to record the importance of deep sense of loss in the untimely death of Joseph Granger Brandt, for many years its honored dean.
"Dean Brandt was essentially a teacher and to the last indulged in the classroom. He brought to his administrative work the true teacher's method of seeking out and abiding by the evidence of his bourgeois method. Dean Brandt paid them for the use of it, but it brought him from the book he read high accord only to one who, in complete forgetfulness of self, considers each issue in the light of reason and understanding."
"Dean Brandt, through his broad humanistic outlook, his conception of education as a means toward richer living, was peculiarly fitted to direct a college of liberal arts and sciences. His work in maintaining the standards and shaping the policies of the College has been of inestimable value."

ORDER OF ALPHA PHI OMEGA
Beach and Dumm Have Helped Defeat Tigers for Past Three Years
Two members of the football team who will be in the game against Missouri here Thanksgiving day will have the unusual distinction of having played on teams for four years against Missouri and in all the three games so far played having been on teams that have shut out Missouri. These players are Beach and Dumm, who as freshmen in 1920 played on the team which played at St. Louis on the variety which beat Missouri 3 to 0 in 1930; Dumm helped defeat the Tigers 14 to 0 in 1931 and last year both assisted in defeating Missouri 7 to 0.
A similar record was made by two players last year, Elmer Schaake and Carney Smith, who as freshmen helped defeat Missoura in 1929, 33 to 0, and in varsity competition helped beat Missouri 32 to 0, 14 to 0, and 7 to 0.
Michigan State to Play Kansas Here Next Year
Return Game Is Scheduled for 1935; Date Still Tentative
Home and home football games for 1934 and 1935 have been scheduled between Michigan State College and the University of Kansas according to a news story from East Lansing this morning. The first game will be played in Lawrence next fall, with the return to Kansas the year following, the story said.
Tentative plans were for the games to be played on the Saturday preceding the Thanksgiving day games each year, but athletic officials here said that no specific dates for the games had yet been agreed upon.
Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletes, said this morning in commenting upon the games, that they had been scheduled as the result of continued correspondence between Charles Bachman, Michigan State coach and former Kansas State College athlete, and the athletic department here. With only the Nebuska and Oklahoma Big Six games scheduled for here next season, another attractive home game is especially desirable, he said.
Dr. Allen said that he would bring the matter to the attention of the University athletic board at its meeting on Friday night of this week. Only the work of setting specific dates for the games remains.

Work Will Begin Soon to Complete Ballroom
Second Floor of Memorial Union Finishing Contract Is Let
Work on the second floor of the Memorial Union will start soon after the Thanksgiving vacation, according to Ozwin Rutledge, manager. The completion of this floor, which was promised last spring in case the compulsory activity ticket was adopted, will provide a better hallroom for student parties.
Bids for the contract for completing the second floor were made last summer, and J. T. Constant, of Lawrence, was chosen to do the work. However, the uncertainty of enrollment this fall and the numerous exemptions to the activity ticket delayed decision to go ahead with the work until last night, when Henry L. Werner, chairman of the Union Operating committee, signed the contract, the committee having voted to have the work begun. Although building materials and labor costs have been on the upward trend since Mr. Constant made his bid, he has agreed to do the job at the price he named last summer. The work on the second floor includes completing the walls in a rough sand finish, celotexing the ceiling for acrylic similarity, and making arched pillars similar. In the floor. With the completion of this floor the Union Operating committee now will look forward to the completion of the third floor.
In signing the contract, the Union Operating committee fulfills its pledge made during the renovising campaign of last summer, and men will be given temporary employment. The work is made possible by student financial aid entirely, and will cost approximately six thousand dollars. The new ballroom will be decorated with chairs, and plan for mid-week variases are being made. Meanwhile parties planned for the next two months will have to take place elsewhere.

FACULTY GIVES BAND MEMBERS COLLEGE CREDIT
Petition Circulated Early in Semester Gets Action; Mac's Boys Placed on Par With Orchestra
OTHER CHANGES MADE
Orientation Math Course to Be Inovation in Curriculum
Participation in the activity for one year before being eligible for enrollment for credit, also is provided, and the credits thus earned are to be classified as "freshman-sophomore" in determining hours for graduation.
Band members will receive academic credit on a par with members of orchestras and glee clubs, under a regulation adopted by the faculty of the College of Liberal Arts yesterday afternoon. Credit for band members is to be one credit hour a semester—the same as for the symphony orchestra, but not the one auditioned. For the little symphony and the glee clubs, where the credit is one-half hour a semester, the maximum credit is to be three hours.
Action of the College faculty follows a petition by the band, presented a month ago, where it was found that changes in the physical education requirements had removed one of the incentives that had existed for playing in the band, and the general activity ticket added its commissions.
To Offer New Math Course
The College faculty also gave the department of mathematics permission to offer a five-hour course in general mathematics for students expecting to take only that amount in the department. The course is not open to students who have had trigonometry or more than one hour of algebra in high school. The new course will contain parts 1. Mathematics 2b and Mathematics 3. Mathematics 2c and to take more mathematics may take 2cr 2b only for reduced credit.
Faculty Makes Other Changes
Two hours of freshman R. O. T. C. were placed in the "miscellaneous" group, thereby removing it from the professional group.
Other action by the faculty included:
Change of the name of the course "higher vertebrates" to "mammals and birds"; change of numbers of certain Latin courses; drama of course in Spanish drama from freshman-soph-more group to junior-senior credit; addition of courses 55 and 56, musical composition, to list of music appreciation open for college credit.
Students entering with advanced standing in foreign languages, or mathematics, are to come under rule 40, which governs credit for work parallelling high school courses, with the exception that advanced standing students having taken specified courses in regular colleges may receive credit here on the basis of three hours for a one-hour course and one hour for a two-hour course. The administrative committee was authorized to act on two petitions for changes by the department of psychology.
Resolutions commemorating the work of the late Dean Brandt were presented by Professor M. W. Sterling, and were adopted by rising vote.
Professor F. H. Hodder announced that enough money is available for another issue of the Humanistic series.
