Contestant Sells Three Books During One Class
Jayhawker Sales Campaign
Entrants Have Two
Days Left
With the Jayhawk sales contract now on its third day, entrants in the competition have reported fair co-operation on the part of the student body, but the contest do not know definitively just how much has been sold, but have expressed the belief that the contest will be a success. Harold Denton, president of the Mori's Student Council, and one of the active promoters of the contest, said, "I think they will go 'over the top.' "At present it is impossible to tell the exact progress which the contestants are making, because many have actually sold Jayhawks, but are waiting till next week to week for the orders," he said.
It is definitely known that one of the students entered in the context had disposed of 11 Jayhawkers since competition started Monday. This par- tition, which included three Jayhawkers during the time that one of his professors was giving a lecture, He is optimistic over his chances to get the trip to the World's Fair, and believes that he will sell as much merchandise as half of the week as he did the first half.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY. MARCH 22. 1933.
If present plans are not changed, the contest will end at 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon. The person who has soak the most year books will receive a free trip to the world's fair. All other contests who have sold 10 or more books will receive in return a copy of the 1933 Jayhawker free.
Council Plan Unbalanced
"No permanent improvement in the government of the city of Lawrence will be made by a change to the mayor-council plan; said W. R. Maddox, instructor in political science, speaking on "Municipal Governments," at the University club
Merits of Various Systems of City Government Explained
"Judging from the history of councils composed of ward representatives," he stated, "it is probable that it would mean a loss of the advantages already gained. Ward representatives tend to approach city problems from the point of view of the direct benefit of their own wards rather than from that of the city as a whole. The result is an unintended consequence of city of cities projects and activities, frequently involving wasteful expenditure of the public money.
"The return of the mayor-council form," he said, "also involves the nomination and election of candidates for city offices on a partisan ballot. This is likely to mean the activity of national political parties in local elections."
"City governments which have made the best records in the past few years have been those which have had the benefit of competent management," a mayor elected by popular vote will possess adequate managerial ability.
"In this respect the commission form which Lawrence now has is also defective," he added, "but the way toward permanent improvement is through the council-manager form of a company. The council manager has the responsibility for selecting a competent manager to supervise the work of the city."

Braden Urges Douglas County Citizens to Support Relief Program
The response of the citizens of Douglass County to the appeal of the American Red Cross for the California firemen is rather disappointing. S. B. Braden, chapter chairman of Douglas County, pointed out today that this situation is unusual here for the reason that the county has not had far since it has received hearty consideration.
Dr. Braden called attention to the fact that the American Red Cross is calling on more pressing relief demands in no less than three major disasters the Tennessee tornado, the earthquake and the Ohio river flood.
For the moment the needs of the earthquake sufferers is the most pressing. It is estimated that one half million dollars will be necessary to take care of the immediate needs of those in distress.
President Roosevelt has issued this statement: "Governor Rolph of California has issued a preclamation designating the American Red Cross the official agency of relief and rehabilitation in the California area struck by a fire. I am heartily in accord with it. I will respond throughout the nation will respond generously to any call made upon them by the Red Cross."
Lunken airport area here was holding although water was seeping through a small fissure.
Dr. Braden urges that those contem-
plating make gifts to the California
earthquake relief fund do so at the earl-
est moment. The banks at Lawrence
and throughout the county will receive
such designated gifts.
"The Red Cross fails only when it does not receive adequate support," he says. "Douglas county has an enviable record for providing resources in every region of the American Red Cross for earthquake relief will not be the exception."

Frats Win Fight for Cancellation of Delinquent Tax
Senate Bill Is Passed by House in Last Hours of Legislative Session
'KEEP HOUSES OPEN'
Three years ago, the county commissioners of Douglas county put on the tax rolls all real property of the fraternities of the University of Kansas and of Baker University at Baldwin, on the ground that the law unintentionally these organizations had been exempt from taxes for many years was unconstitutional.
The commissioners of Riley county did the same for the Kansas State College fraternities a short time later.
Topoka, March 22—(Special) The senate bill canceling certain real estate taxes levied against fraternity properties in Doughas and Bailley counties was passed by the house in the closing hours of the legislative session.
Immediately the fraternities united to test the validity of the commissioner's action, and the case was quickly taken up by the commissioner and supreme court commissioner heard testimony at Lawerence and at Manhattan, and filed a report finding against the fraternities. Early in the present year, the commissioner found the findings of the commissioner.
Several weeks ago a bill was introduced in the state state to cancel the taxes which had accrued while the case was in litigation, on the ground that during time the fraternities had no opportunity to seek proper access to assessments. The house in county was approved the measure, and early this morning it was given formal approval of the house.
Bill Avery, e34, president of the Fraternity President's association, made the following comment:
"The Fraternity President's organization has been working on the bill to provide a way for the university seemed the only possible way for us to be able to keep our houses open next year. We can now plan our budgets, knowing definitely that we will have enough room."
"Personally, I am very grateful to some citizens of Lawrence who helped materially in securing the passage of the bill. We are hoping that there will be an equalization of the evaluations property on which this tax is "evidied."
