The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas
Students Request Abels to Retract Law School Story
Article in Question Aver Students Withdrew Because of Low Standards
DOUBTS ENROLLMENT
A group of 40 students of the School of Law, including 15 seniors, called the editors of the Douglas County Republican yesterday morning demand protection of certain interests that appeared in the last issue of that publication.
No.13
The spokesmen for the students of law were Dwight Wallace, 133, Owen Cox, 133, Clement Hall, 133, Lee Standard, 133, and John Markham, 133. They presented to Mrs. E. F. Abels acting editor of the Republican in the absence of her husband, the editor, a typed statement which they asked her to publish in retraction of her paper's original article.
Mrs. Abels refused to do this, but said that she would print the statements over the signatures of members of the group, declaring that the columns of the Republican were always open to the truth. The student refused to leave their statement with the editor for publication. They wished the retraction to be entirely voluntary on the part of the editors of the paper, they said.
The article to which the students took exception was headed by a statement that the University registration figures for the current year were higher than actual facts warrant and then followed with claims that they were in the School of Law because of dissatisfaction with scholastic standards there.
University officials said today that the same plan of arriving at the total figures was used this year as had been used in other years. The enrollment figure takes into account only students enrolled since the fall semester and is perfectly compatible with enrollment figures for other years, they said.
A list of names was printed of students of law who had left Kansas to enroll in Washburn. The protecting students claimed that the students listed were uneducated and were unable to defend deficiencies rather than as a protest against the school.

M.U. Student President Declares Charges False
Freedman Denies Accusations Made at Impeachment Meeting
Columbia, Mo., Oct. 2. -(UP)—James Freedman, "bearer of the student president at the University of Missouri, today denied all except one of the charges brought against him in his impugnance," said opposements on the student council.
Freedman admitted the accusation that he sold student handbooks which were supposed to be free to new students. "I was misinformed on the hardship of students, including the council," he said. "All of the other charges were 'trumped up.'" The charges included exceeding constitutional powers, gaining unfavorable publicity of the University, misrepresentations, or calls to call a meeting of the student senate at the proper time, attempting to exclude a member at a council meeting, failure to keep his office open two hours daily and illegally appointing a
The impaction charges were read at a mass meeting of students in front of Waters hall without the sanction of University authorities. Dr. Albert K.

Freedman said he did not appear at the student gathering, because he learned of it only shortly before it started.
His friend, Jonathan Schulz, also of Kansas City, a varisty debater, attempted to gain the floor seven times and sought funtely to conduct another meeting after the first adjourned. Heckling ended the attempt.

Demolishing Snow to Be Slow Work, Chancellor Says
Interests of Safety Demand Careful Razing; Dismantling to Be Done This Winter
Dr. and Mrs. Wheeler left for Europe the first part of August. They toured France, Switzerland, and Germany. Dr. Wheeler spent a week attending the International Congress in Copenhagen, Denmark, and approximately a week at the British convention.
ONLY SHELL REMAINS
The work of demolishing old Snow hall will progress slowly in the interests of safety, Chancellor E. H. Lindley said yesterday. Announcement that the building was to be razed came from C. M. Hanger, chairman of the Board of Regents, Friday afternoon. That group, among others, that group. Employees of the buildings and grounds department will do the work during the winter months.
The fixtures and some of the building materials have already been removed from the interior and used in making repairs to other structures on the campus. All material salvage will be stored for future use as repairs or in constructing another building. The material is valued at $20,000.
Tentative plans for landscaping the site are already receiving attention. They call for the subsequent removal of the Commons building and hardsided areas surrounding the library. Appropriations from the state will be necessary before some of the work can be undertaken. A large quadrangle is planned for the space between Fraser, Walton librion, and the library. The construction of an official bulletin board using some of the stone from Snow Hall is also being considered. The graduating class of 181 contributed a fund of approximately $30,000 to the creation of an official bulletin board.
Snow hall was constructed in 1888 and 1887 by J. N. MacFarland and S. Lawrence contractors. At that time it was as nearly fireproof as possible. On Oct. 1, 1886, while still under construction, the building was named "Snow Hall of Natural History" in honor of Professor Francis Huntington Snow. From the time of its completion until 1902, the museum was in use until 1902. In the museum was moved into Dyche museum. Clasuses in natural science were held in Snow hall and at one time basketball games were played in the basement.
The building continued in use until 1930. It was condemned as being unsafe about 10 years ago but was used until new Snow hall was completed in 1930. Since then it has been unoccupied. The fixtures and interior work have been removed and the shell stands back. And it 'to go' to the garage.

Our firm wishes to argue the case How-teries waiver argument, which terminates waive argument, we will only make a short oral resume of the case." The Topica attorneys, Webb, Stone, Johnston, McClure, and Ouam could not be reached last night with regard to their plans in the matter. This firm did, however, accept the petition, but would make exceptions to the findings of the special matter.
Special Master Reported
The case is the result of a long drawn out battle between the taxing agencies of Douglas county and the fraternities and sororites. The action began when the county placed the property of the Greeks on the tax rules in 1930.
The Greeks applied directly to the supreme court for a writ of mandamus which was granted and which restrained the county from collecting taxes on the property until the case was reviewed; the fraternities claiming exemption under a Kanzos statute that makes taxation for educational and formative purposes.
A special master was appointed by the supreme court to hear evidence in the case. The decision of the master handed down in May found against the frater—in the supreme court will narrow act on the findings of the special master.
