Nowhere in their travels, according to Joe McCluskey former Fordham star spoke for his teammates, John Morris of Lorainna State and Ivan Fuqua of Cincinnati use a distance runner who could compare with the Jayhawk球. The athlete saw both Jack Lovelock of New Zeland, holder of the world record, and Luca Beličić of Olympic 1500-meter champion, but declared that Cunningham could either of them in actual competition.
"If you could Cummingham day in and day out as we did," said McClaney, "you get a proper apperance to the trenches. He has not come to running his fastest race yet. He's the greatest middle distance runner the world has ever
"I hope both Beculi and Lovelock come over here this winter. Then you'll see Cunningham man a 4.05 mile."
George O. Foster, who has been Registrar of the University since 1897, is the first official to greet officially the incoming student each year. Mr. Foster attends when the first issue of the Kananus is appears on the campus.
Library Closing Hour Is Advanced to 9 p.m
Alternatives Considered Before Decision Is Made for Change
The Library will close at 9 p.m. this year.
This new closing hour has been decided on, because since the library has to cut down the costs $500 this year, it has been decided that this time will be the least inconvenience to the students.
Several plans were submitted by G. M. Buker, director of Libraries, for Friday night and Saturday afternoon and night, and that of opening it
The plan of having the library open later than the usual 8 o'clock hour would be most inconvenient because you wouldn't be checked in early enough to be used by other students during the morning, persons having both 8:30 and 9:30 classes on the west side of the library would not be checked in their books between those two classes and it would be 10:30 and sometimes 11:30 before all the books would be turned in. Also, books carried from the class are in danger of being lost.
There will not be so much time to study in the evening, and students will have to learn to get to the library earlier. Mr. Baker said, but if they really concentrate when they are there in the morning, plenty of time in the evening settled.
In several courses, the students are required to know current news, which is published in the magazine room of the library. If the library is open in the morning, Mr. Baker expressed the wish that students co-operate to the fullest extent to make a success of the new course. This is partly by the reduction of student fees.
The 9 p.m. closing hour was put into effect first in the Summer Session
The University Daily Kanan will continue as a morning paper tomorrow and Wednesday. There after the regular publish schedule will be resumed, and the paper will be published on Saturday evening except Monday, and on Sunday morning Delivery to subscribers start today.

The appointed—the group which in the main finished its four-year courses has lasted. Each succeeding year a class of 10 to 16 students is recruited for research through the high schools of Kansas for the most promising young men to be found, and with the appointment this year of the fifth group, the plan to recruit more than 50 students Early in the year, the Summerfield committee at the University sends invitations to every high school in Kansas, inviting them to nominate their brightest and most qualified graduating class. When all the nominations are in, ten or a dozen classes are designated for the places of holding the scholarship. All the names are selected so as to be convenient for the greater number of the nominees. In each of the cities designated, examinations are held for a whole day, covailing all the general high school subjects.

Reduction Makes This Year's Price Lowest Since 1918
Paper Will Be Available to Nearly All Students Under Present Arrangement
A payment plan offering the Kuranam for only one dollar down, and a new low cash price of $2 are the big features of the Daily Kranam's circulation campaign this fall, as announced in flashy, eye-catching issues distributed Sat-湿期 morning.
"The Daily Kaman has never been offered on payments before," said P. M. Crawford, the university's vice president and "we are trying the plan to make it possible for students who are hard pressed during the first few days of the paper during the open-air week."
The new cash price of $3 is also the lowest at which the Daily Kansan has been offered since 1918, and represents a reduction of $ per cent from the $4 prices.
The $'s price and the payment plan should make it possible for practically every student on the campus to have his or her the Kiman this year," said Mr. Berry.
Delivery Starts Today
Subscription assembling will be stationed at various places over the campus during registration and enrollment and a representative of the Krasan will be at the end of the registration line in Administration building.
It is important that students turn in their addresses at once, with at least ten days' notice (even if they have "because delivery by carrier will be made only after subcontractors begin
Morning editions will be publish, during registration and enrollment. Be sure to sign up as soon as you will resume its regular evening publication schedule. In addition there will be the usual Sunday morning edition. In addition, an online subscription is as low a subscription price as the $3 to be charged for the Kaman next year," said Mr. Beauty. "There are 33 daily papers published in the college and university, and to access to a recent survey, there is one that charges $7.50 per week and two more which charge $7 while the majority
Lower Only on Activity Tickets
"With one or two exceptions the only cases where a college paper has a lower price than the Daily Kanaan is where it is included in some sort of a compellation. Most of those schools the paper is usually not delivered to the homes of the subscribers, but distributed free to all on the Kanaan was last Saturday morning."
The only time that the Daily Kansan was offered for a lower price than $1 was during the first three years of its operation, from 1914 to 1918. From 1915 to 1918 it was $3 a year. From 1919 to 1922 it was $5.50. Beginning with the inauguration of the Sunday morning issue in 1923 the price had been ever since except for one year.

"The reduction to $3 for 1933-34 makes it the biggest bargain in 15 years," said Mr. Beauty.
Mr. Haskell attended the London economic conference as correspondent for the Star, and he travelled in office before returning to the United States.
Agnes Husband, dean of women, spoke before the opening meeting of the American Association of University Women in Topela Saturday afternoon, on the subject of "Mexico." The Women was held at the Governor's mansion.
