Fitting the game before Game!
Five times this general plan to inaugurate a strict anti-boating campaign will be a three-minute demonstration of personal contact fouls prior to the start of the game Saturday night. This demonstration will be made by Forrest Cox, assistant basketball coach, with Ed Elibel of the physical education staff, explaining the demonstration over the loud speaker. Many spectators at basketball games do not exactly know what really constitutes a foul in all sports. For example, you quaint everyone with some of the more usual fouls.
Dr. Allen made clear that the conduct of the crowds at games here had not been bad at all compared with action at other schools in the conference but said that even the attitude here could be improved.
"The increase of booing which has been noted this season and which has been allowed to go unrestrained at the gym, will permit, if willled, to go unchallenged, ruin the game of basketball." Dr. Allen said. "Booing is bound to give youngsters at the game the idea that visiting players are cool and that they don't like the crowd at basketball is close to the playing floor makes booing demotions more personal to the players and officials and thus more detrimental than normal."

Japanese Threats May Involve U.S in Serious Dispute
Group of 1600 Islands Included in Mandate Given
by League to Japan
CONCERNED
Copyright, 1828, by the United Press
Geneba, Feb. 15. (UP)—Japan's threatened withdrawal from the League of Nations may involve the United States in a dispute with Japan over the 1,600 islands in the Pacific which form a bridge of 2,500 miles east and west between Japan and the United States.
Nobody in Gensua believes Japan will relinquish the islands when she quits the League although she will have no legal right to retain them. The issue is a matter of strategic reason. They control American communications in the Far East.
The Islands, formerly German, are held by Japan under mandates by the League of Nations acting as custodian for the victorious powers in the World War II.
The United States has never recognized the League mandate as giving the islands to Japan and theoretically still claims a share. It is considered possible that Washington would assist the League to repossess the islands. Britain also is vitally interested. Australia and New Zealand have Pacific island mandates whose integrity the UN strongly wields with the United States which would almost force Britain to a firm stand against Japan.

Brailsford Gives Reason for Lack of Disarmament
English Lecturer Says, 'A:
Long as Nations Are
Selfish They Will
Not Disarm'
TELLS ABOUT JAPAN
"So long as the selfish people of still more selfish nation continue have selfish interests in disarmament declared H. N. Brailsford in his lectu last night in the University Audio tapes, "there will be no disarmment.
Brulands, author and lecturer from England whose speech concluded the University of Kansas lecture course, asked the audience, "Why Don't the Nations Disarm?" and then proceeded to answer his own question. For an hour and a half an audience connected with a man who has been connected with international affairs for many years, explain the reasons that Great Britain, in response to France, Japan and Iraq did nothing but talk about disarming but took no steer to disarm.
'Talk to Kill Time'
"This taking is only used to kill. Time while each nation tries to think up ways in which to disarm the other fellow," Brallard said, "and to disarm themselves as little as possible." Great Britain and the United States were both disarmed before he explained, he was better acquainted with the facts concerning these nations
The League which has met at Genova this month, he said will probably do nothing but prove to the world that the League is capable of co-operative spirit and machinery which are so essential for the maintenance of world peace. "They are met," he said, in the illumination of the fires of burning Shanghai. They will prosecute crimes against the owner city, as to the case with which it may burn or be bombed. Then write Japan a little note telling her that she must resist, for it is against the rules of the League to use armed forces to attack Japan's own people to watch Japan bomb another town."
Bral柴顿 said he was willing to wager that if the League had been composed of the nations who were neurotic, he would have been drastic action taken and Japan would have obeyed the rules that she herself helped to make. "One cannot," he went on, "expect nations who for example are not afraid of navies and guns to maintain their boundaries, whose own past history cannot boar a close scrutiny, to invite that inspection by telling another nation she is using the wrong procedure."
Does Not Spare England
No SPire english in Brandonford England's own country and their interests. He admitted that Great Britain probably had selfish motives for trying to add sentences to President Hoover's suggestion of reducing the arms by one third. Mr Hoover said he made battleships smaller instead of cutting down on the number. "I am perfectly sure," he said, "that Great Britain has new ideas for packing more instruments of murder inside a ship of 23,000 men were ever seen on a of 35,000."
He then went on to point out that with the large number of fueling stations which the Empire possesses, smaller battleships would be much more inexpensive-for Great Britain. Following the speech several questions were asked pertaining to the Japanese question. He said that Japan with her naval bases so close to her own coast could have sufficient what looked backed her, just so long however, as Japan's natural resources lasted.
Bratsford addressed English majors and other interested students this morning at 11:30 in Fraser theater, speaking on the concept of progress as it has made itself apparent in modern times.

FOUR MONTHS OF JAYHAWKER WORK MISSING
Berkebile, Editor, Discloses Prank Which Has Caused Loss of Large Number of Prints
CANNOT BE REPLACED
Work of Engravers Has Been Stopped by Loss of Pictures
A prank that has been turned into a serious catatrophe was disclosed today by John Berkebile, editor of the 1933 Jayhawk. Four months of careful work in photography of Hill personalities, scenes of football games, and early semester events were found missing Friday, Feb. 3.
On that Friday morning John Clark, the snap shot photographer for the Jayhawk, was to deliver four months of prints ready for the engravers. When Berklebe did not find those prints by Friday evening the clock and clerk and two others had opened the prints through window early Friday morning.
Since the windows of the Jayhawker office are always kept locked, Clark must have dropped the pictures into the W.S.G.A. book exchange and the W.S.G.A. book exchange.
Prints Not in Room
Berkley went immediately to that room but did not find the photographs. He began inquiries among those who had used the room that day and everyone said that he had not seen the plates in that room at anytime.
Berkshire called Clark and the photographer agreed to make the entire group of prints over again and when he had not produced $6m by last Friday Berkshire called him again only to find out that a water pipe had burst in the basement, leaving all the plates from which new prints could be made.
The majority of these plates cannot be replaced by the Jayhawker, accorded to the rules of the snapshots of football scenes and the football squad, certain committees and groups that meet only once or twice a week. The remainder who are at Roosedale this semester.
Engravers Await Copy
This latest setback in the work of this year's book puts the Jayhawker at a standstill. The engravers of the book have been asking for these prints for the past week and last night Berkebile had to inform them of this latest mistap thereby stopping the work on the book.
Berklebe and John Rugh, business manager, made the following statement this morning: "We believe this to be a prank of some person who could not know the tight place in which he puts the Jayhawker. We are willing to give a liberal reward to anyone who returns the prints to the Jayhawker office. We will not ask any questions. If the person and want us to disclose his identity he may leave the prints anywhere in the Union building, such as the fountain, the main desk, or any other place where someone is likely to find them."
