Oklahoma Students Register Attitude Toward New 3.2 Beverage
Stillwater, Okla., May 4—(Special!)
The Daily O'Collegiate, student newspaper at Oklahoma A. and M. College, is conducting a straw vote to deter beer. Thus far in the contest have there been 92 beer votes and 58 dry votes.
A voter, whose vote could not be counted because he was not a student, told the managers of the contest that he was a "wet" if the beer was half as good as that which he had gotten in Germany the preceding summer. "I don't want to go back to Hamburg and drink beer."
German Scholarship Open for Application
Petitions to Be Addressed to Students' Major Department Head
Applications for German exchange scholarships should be filed with J. H. Nelson, professor of English, chair of the department, before May 10, it was announced today.
Students making applications should address them to the head of their major departments, rather than directly to Professor Nelson. Students meeting the head of the major department will be recommended to the committee.
In determining who will be chosen exchange scholar, the committee takes into consideration the student's scholastic record, personality, and social background. Exchange scholars so far have been men and women, between the ages of 20 and 30.
The exchanging of students between the University of Kansas and German universities is arranged through the International Education at New York City.
The exchanging of these students is *he* possible by an anonymous friend *the University who provides sufficient money to cover the total expenses of the German student who comes to the University, and part of the traveling expense of the Student who is sent to Germany. The German student pays most of the expenses for maintaining the exchange student from Kansas. It pays the lodging, tuition, and board.
The practice of exchanging students started three years ago when the gift was first made. Lee S. Greene of Kansas was the first student sent to Germany. Johan F. Wiedeman of Germany was sent to Kansas at the same time.
In 1931-32, Georg Brandau and Alfred de Chapeauroge of Germany changed places with Edwin B. Newman and Leonard O'Bryan. This year the German exchange student is Werner Bruckmann. Jack Mare Smith of the University of Kansas went to Germany. The Brandau-O'Bryon交换 was the gift of Dr. Otto H. F. Vollheb, German book collector, who has several times visited the University, and has given it valuable old books and maps

Dean of Women
Kansas Physicians Hear W. W. Davis Speak at Banquet
University Professor Tells Medics of Things That Layman Expects of Doctors
Approximately 550 Kansas physicians, their wives, and University medical students sat down at a banquet in Memorial Union last night and managed to enjoy themselves despite the fact that some of them couldn't refrain from thinking of the food in terms of B.T.U.'s and small, large, and mean calories.
The doctors were enabled to forget the responsibilities of their profession, the depression, the high cost of medical care, and countless other tribulations, through the efforts of Dr. J. D. Colt, Sr., president of the Society, toastmaster, Professor W. W. Davis, of the history department, and Dr. Dean Lewis, president-elect of the American Medical association.
Professor Davis informed the medical man of the things the average man expects of the profession. "Look the part," he said. "We want you to look wise and reasonably prosperous. We want you to have the prestige of a school behind you, the sanction of a great center of learning. You should have a reassuring manner, but not one that minimizes our troubles. We like to be taken seriously. And then we like to have our ailments given a long technical name, so that we may feel that our money is not being spent in vain. Most important of all, we don't want to have to pay very much for all this."
"Iinstead of blaming the doctor for the high cost of medical care, people should begin to talk of the quality of medical care." Dr. Lewis said in the principal address of the evening. The medical profession is the easy prey of the "uplifter". Dr. Lewis believes "All I'm worried about," he says, "is that doctors will do something foolish in this time of depression that will hurt them when recovery has come. We should be optimistic, and since we have been for four years, I guess we can be for some time longer."
After the dinner, the guests attended a dance in the Memorial ballroom. Bill Phipps and his orchestra played.
