Members of Band Petition University for Credit Relief
NUMBER 21
Inequalities Among Organi zations Pointed Out; Group Asks for Two Trips
Members of the University band today presented a petition for certain relief and credit to Chancellor Lindley and Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics. After reading the petition Chancellor Lindley said that the petition would be referred to the proper faculty members next Tuesday.
Dr. Allen said that the athletic department had made no arrangement in its budget this year for the band, either for home or away-from-home games.
The faculty most immediately concerned are in the College, since the majority of band members are in the College. This matter will be discussed in a regularly scheduled meeting next Tuesday.
The following petition was signed by 69 members of the band:
We, the undersigned members, inform former members of the K. U. Band, realizing the alarming situation in which the band now finds itself, do respectfully petition the execution of their plans and commit to firmly believe will effectively remedy the condition which now exists. It is all too evident that the Band does not receive the support and respect which such an important organization deserves and should receive from the band and instruction and the student body in general.
The Band answers calls for playing at football games, basketball games track meets, night shirt parades, rallies, victory marches, convocations to games in addition it gives two regular concerts and several campus concerts each year.
In consideration of these services, we fully believe it is our right to seek compliance on the part of the administration with the following requests:
1. A more adequate provision in the University budget for the band, in order to buy uniform caps, music, and instruments owned by the band.
At present, the members are required to buy their own eaxs; the band library is inadequate; and the instruments of the band are badly in need of repair.
2. One academic hour credit per semester to all members of the band providing he has earned the credit in the opinion of J. C. McCanales, our di-
Now, only those members who are in the School of Fine Arts receive credit for band work; all students in the glee clubs, Little Symphony, University Symphony, and even those students in Lawrence receive academic credit.
3. The right to transfer reserved seat tickets to football games to members of the team.
When a band member reserves his seat at a football game, no one else can rightfully occupy that seat even though it is vacant because the rightful owner is seated with the band. The provision for a student Drum Major.
5. Provisions for the payment of all expenses for food and transportation on trips to out-of-town football games or attendance at at least two trips a year.
Last year an outsider was paid $100 to be our drum major. We believe the band and the University would have had been spent otherwise.
6. The retention of J. C. McCanles as director of the band.
Loyalty to “Mac”<sup>2</sup> is the sole reason for the return of old members this year. This next is in order in that of failure to what we believe be the best interests for the University and the Band and is in no wise a threat but a firm decision on our part.
We respectfully submit this petition for consideration by the administration before a court of appeal. We request a refusal by the band to appear after that date unless some definite agreements are made with the band for grievance and not fully appreciated, end on that date.

Engineers to Make Trip
Seniors Will Inspect Industrial and Educational Features in Chicago
Nineteen engineering students, accompanied by Professors R. W. Warner and King, will leave tomorrow for Chicago on a week's inspection trip. They will devote their time to the industrial and educational features of the World's Fair and to power plants and manufacturing plants in Chicago. Another group of industrial and mechanical engineering students will make an inspection trip to Kansas City next week, from Monday to Thursday.
Industrial and mechanical seniors must make one of these trips in order to graduate. The trips have been an annual affair with the exception of the last two years when they have been omitted in the interest of economy. Nearly all engineering schools have such an event and the University of Oklahoma engineers are in Chicago this week while Iowa State will be there next week.
All students who wish to make the Kansas City trip must register with Professor Warner or Professor Hay as soon as possible.
Committee Adopts Rates for Renting Dance Floor
All Organizations Will Get Same Consideration This Year
This Year
At the last meeting of the Union Operating committee, the committee on rates for the rental of the second floor of the Memorial Union building presented its report. After being accepted with a few suggestions, the report was returned to the sub-committee, consisting of Prof. E. L. Treece, C. Ozwin Rutledge, and Lloyd Lane, for final approval.
It was decided that there should be no discrimination for any one organization for the rental of the Memorial Union as has been the custom in the
The following rates have been adopted:
For non-University and admission charge functions there will be a basic rate of $15. If the check room is used, the charge will be $30. The charge of $8 will be made for its use.
Anyone not wanting to use an orchestra may use the combination phonograph and radio in connection with the public address system for $5.
If refreshments are served on the main, floor there will be an additional charge of $5. This will not apply if refreshments are served in the back room. For banquets and dinners of outside organizations, a basic charge of $25 will be
For University functions in the afternoon, there will be a basic rate of $5, to which will be added the same charges as explained above for any additional services. The evening basic rate for University functions is to be $10.00. For banquets and dinners the basic rate will be $12, and to each of these basic rates are added charges if other facilities are used.
According to C. Ozwin Rutledge, manager of the Memorial Union, "The reason for the extra charges for refreshments served on the dance floor, and for banquets and dinners, is the unavoidable damage which is always experienced by the spilling of hot coffee, etc."

Conference Play Starts Saturday for Big Six Teams
Nebraska and Iowa State Clash at Ames; Tigers Face Wildcats at Columbia
By Tom Mahoney United Press Staff Correspondent
Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 13.—Big Six football play will begin in earnest to-morrow with two conference games. The champion Nebraska eleven will meet Iowa State at Ames then Kansas State and Missouri face each other at Columbia.
Oklahoa will renew an old rivalry with the University of Texas at Dallas. Kansas will rest from its notable effort in the final game, which is a contest with the Jayhawk freshmen.
**Low Score Events**
Iowa State, however, played Nebraska as close a game is any Big Six team last year and not the one that the Ames team finished the season at the bottom of the conference standing. The event may be duplicated this season.
Nebraska and Kansas State are favorites in the conference contests on the basis of the season record to date and the caliber of competition encountered.
Coach George Veenker's Iowa State eleven has defeated Central of Iowa, Denver University and the Iowa State freshmen to date. Both Central and Denver were defeated by low scores and in the latter contest the winning punch came only in the final minutes. The Nebraska eleven, which Coach Dana X. Bible describes as the best of eleven victories, won Satity in a smooth defeat of a University of Texas eleven which boasted a buck of all-al-American rating.
Carideo Swamped Central
Low Scores Defeat Teams
Missouri and Kansas State meet in what is described as the "rubber game" in a rivalry which began in 1909. Each team has won eight games and there have been two tied contests. Kansas State has won for the last four years.
Coach Bo McMillin's current Kansas State eleven has defaceted the Emporia State Teachers and St. Louis University, Missouri, starring a second season under the Kirksville team, but lost to the Kirksville Teachers by an equally decisive score.
In the game at Dallas, Oklahoma will encounter the same Texas team which last week bowed to Nebraska at Lincoln and will provide a basis of comparison between Nebraska and Oklahoma. Coach Adrian Lindsey's strong Kansas eleven will enter the conference race Oct. 28 in a game with Kansas State.

Regatta Will Take Place on Potter Lake Between Psychology and Business Schoo
Potter Lake is to be the scene of a thrilling regatta to be held next Sunday afternoon around 2:30 for possession of the Blair trophy. The three enmies in the rince are "The Spirit of Switzerland" owned by Charles D. Young, graduate of the College and a student in the business school; "The Jimmy"; and "Dark Horse" owned and backed by Robert Bridgen, who is an assistant instructor in the psychology department.
By Dorothy Foster, c'34
It seems that when Mr. Young discovered Mr. Bridgman bragged about the speed of his model sailboats, he immediately challenged the instructor to a race on Potter's Lake. William F. Blair, a senior in the College last year, and a first class sportsman was present at the occasion of the challenge and offered "a solid tin lined cup," as a trevice.
The first craft to win 3 laps across Potter's Lake will be adjudged winner of the race and possessor of the Blair trophy. Although the odds are in favor of "Spirit of Switzerland" which holds the record crossing of 2 minutes, and is twice the size of "The Jimny", Bridgen declares that since "The Jimny" was the
Schools Respond to Offer
Five Towns Have Accepted Emergency Educational Program
The emergency educational program provided by the University of Kansas for those high school graduates who are not able to attend college is finding a ready response. H. G. Ingham, director of the extension division at the University of Kansas, has received inquiries from 34 different high school students who already set up a program of courses of university grade for university credit in their high schools.
Some schools offer only two courses, while some offer as many as five. Armements have been made whereby a class of students receive the instruction from the University at the same cost of hat correspondence course for one student. Some high schools are charging he student a nominal fee and making ip the cost from funds from non-tax sources.
In some instances a member of the high school teaching staff is supervising his study, and in some places these students also have volunteered their services.
All five of the high schools in which University courses are offered are giving freshman rhetoric. Most of them offer algebra and trigonometry and some of them offer chemistry, economics, French and German. The teacher supervising the course must be approved by that department at the University.
Similar instruction is being offered by ther state schools, but the University f Kansas was first in adopting this emergency program.

on Student Affairs
There has been a great deal of discussion in the university racing circles as to whether the petition of Dr. J. F. Brown of the Psychology department, to enter his motor boat in the race, shall be accepted. Dr. Brown's boat is an electrically run model of the "Gar Wood", and his petition is greatly resented by owners of the sailing crafts. Plans for making a new class especially for Dr. Brown's entry are under discussion.
Interest is running high as to whether the psychology department shall retain its standing in sailing competition, or whether the Blaire trophy will go to business school. Since there will be a large group of enthusiasts who is believed that a large crowd of sporting enthusiasts will be present at the races Sunday afternoon.
Lindley Endorses Drive for Student Employment
Campaign Workers Bring Results Daily Says Ellsworth
"I realize, the Chancellor said, "that a great number of students will need some sort of employment in order to remain in school. I feel confident, however," he said, "that the appeal being made by the combined efforts of the entire association will meet with the hearty co-operation of the townpeople and I wish them enormous success in their campaign."
Chancellor E. H. Lindley today ex- pressed his interest in the campaign now in progress sponsored by the Student Self-Supporting association.
Fred Ellsworth, the alumni secretary, reported results already returned from the "Keep Students in School Week" campaign in which all members are participating. "If one student finds a position which a student can fill," the Secretary explained, "the immediately reported to this Wray Choate, c'35, president of the organization, and a student is sent out who can fill the vacancy. A meeting was recently held at which cards were given out to all members on which a list of possible prospects for work was printed. The students then made application for such of the jobs as were available and for which they could qualify. "Most of the jobs handled by students," Ellsworth continued, "pay about $00 during the school year. And $00 often means the difference between attending school and staying at home." Chaoade made the following statement to the press this morning: "There seems to be a feeling among the townpeople that we students in having this campaign are trying to force needy people from jobs. We do not want to displace men with wives and children, but we do think that where there are jobs that are small and more adequately filled by students, that working students should get them.
"There are many part-time jobs covering only two or three hours that would be a waste of time and money for a towns man to have to go all over Law-ward. Those jobs are the ones that we, as students, need small cash, are asking for."
Debate Tryouts Postponed
Due to a slight misunderstanding as to procedure, the freshman debate试 outscheduled for last night were postponed until Oct. 24. All those wishing to try out have been asked to meet with Professor E. C. Buehler and Charles next week on Tuesday and Thursday of next week in the Green Hall court room at 3:30 p.m.

VETERAN TULSA TEAM POINTING FOR JAYHAWKS
Conquerors of Oklahoma Will Make Few Changes in the Regular Starting Line-up
PLAN GREAT PARADE
Pre-Game Spectacle Will Include Bands, Floats and Decorations
Tula, Okla, Oct. 13—(Special to the Daily Kansas) a veteran team, with two possible exceptions, will meet the powerful Kansas Jayhawks when they nade Skelly stadium for their game with the University of Tula Golden Hurricane, October 21.
The potency of this combination was so well proved when the Hurricanes swept back the Sooners of Oklahoma, 20 to 6, that Coach "Gloomy Gus" Henderson probably will make no changes in this starting line-up.
Paced by the fleet Roy (Skeet) Berry, the Shawnee antelope, the Tulsa backfield will have only one sophomore member, Tack Dennis, 100-pound plunging fullback, who started the first touchdown drive against the Sooners, the next first call, it will be over the equally powerful veteran. Everett Day.
Triple Threat on Mend
Internal injury to Frank Green, a triple-threat quarterback, has not been diagnosed, but predictions are that he will be ready again before the clash with the Jayhawks. Green's brilliant generalization in the last half of the Oklahoma game established him as premire caller for the year, which is his last.
Blocking with Green and Dennis for the elusive rabbit back, Berry, will be Velmon (Pud) Lentz, husky halfback, who carried out successfully his assignment against the highly touted Cash Jackson, a senior senior, but Berry, his another year.
In the starting line will be only one sophomore, Herb Larson, elongated Swede, who won his spurs by crack play as a substitute for Jim Klipatrick, junior end. Larson stands 6 feet 2 inches, and is as good defensively as offensively. His starting mate will be rugged Charlie Dugger, junior.
Bohemian Guard on Duty
Boehman Guard 2 on Duty
Ahead of the parade in the line, however, is Big Bill Volok, 210-pound Boehmer guard, whose three-year record as a smashing lineman has won him an all-Oklahoma berth and an all-American mention. Speed and height cobine with weight and football sense to make Volok a grid player of the highest order.
In the line with this stellar guard will be fiery little senior running guard, Ron Caps; the two big tackles Buster Sanford and Harry Bowie, senior and junior respectively; with Dugger and Larson on the flanks, and the surunners on the back center, Rudy Prochaska, passing back the ball.
This one-ton Golden Hurricane will average 180 pounds in the backfield and nearly 188 in the line, a heavier team than Tulsa has boasted for several years. The real improvement in weight, however, is found among the reserves, more numerous and considerably heavier than any in Tulsa history.
Tack Dennis a Find
The find of the season so far at Tulsa is the spectacular sophomore fullback, Dennis. Coach Lewis Hardge, of the Sooners, said after the game here, "I believe Tack Dennis is as fine a sopho-fulback as there is in America today."
Hardage, however, pointed to the weakness that has bothered the Hurricane and its gloomy coach for weeks—an adequate pass defense.
Otherwise, Hardage said, "I believe that Tulsa had against us as fine a football team as I've seen since I've been at Oklahoma."
But there is no cockiness in the Hurricane camp. Henderson and all the players fear Kansas as they do no other team on the schedule ever since the Jayhawks were passed on earlier as 'a pretty good team' by Coach Adalay, whose tactility is known well because of his success since the magnificent play against Notre Dame, which shot the national grid spotlight on Lawrence.
Tulsa is planning a down-town parade Saturday morning before the Kansas-Tulsa game. At least tow high school bands, the Tulsa University well no deats, and specially decorated chairs will participate in the parade.
