German Exchange Student Takes Up Work at Kansas
Political Science and Law to Be Studied Here by Werner C. P. Bruckmann
OCEAN VOYAGE ROUGH
Werner Carl Philip Bruckmann, the German exchange student, is here and will enroll for courses in the political science department and School of Law.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1932
Bruckmann comes to the University from Frankfort-on-the-Main, Germany. He was born in Mammelhain With his family he moved, at the age of 21, to Frankfort. Between the ages of 30 and 45 he attended the gymnasium. From then until he was 16 he attended what is known as the gymnasium. After completing this work he went to Geneva, Switzerland, to study. Later he attended schools in New York and Boston where he was granted his degree in law last year at the University of Berlin.
German applicants for the exchange scholarships are required to pass very rigid examinations in English and other subjects. They must also be recommended by several responsible persons. Of the 1,000 or more students who apply each year for these scholarships they should have passed their exams. These 30 are very carefully selected.
More Than 100 Students Come
More than 100 students from the various countries of Europe came to the United States this fall. Of this number about 35 were from Germany, France and Great Britain also sent numerous students to this country.
Bruckmann sailed from Germany Sept. 8, on the steamer "Deutschland," one of the Hamburg-American liners. The ocean was rough, he said, and the voyage took a half day more than was scheduled.
Among the students on board the "Deutschland" were two particularly interesting young persons. One was Sahm Delten, son of the lord mayor of Berlin, who, like his father, is seven feet tall. None of the berths on the ship was long enough for the young man, so a special one had to be constructed. Deltev will study at the University of Cincinnati. The other student is of Foum, Germany. She will study at Oberlin College, Oberlin, Ohio.
Bruckmann Visits Friends
After arriving in the United States Bruckmann and other exchange students attended a conference of exchange students in New York. On his way to Kansas he stopped for two days to visit friends at Vassar College, Foglekpee, N.Y. Bruckman also has cousin living in Florida.
Trains in this country are so different from those in Europe, said Bruckmann. The ones on the other side of the ocean have compartments which accommodate passengers. Railway cars very interesting, especially the observation cars.
Bruckmann said that he had been received very cordially by people in the United States. He says that his experience is very prestige of the University is very important.
Plans Thesis on Law

science and in the School of Law one,

decided just what he will do after he has completed
his work here.

At the end of the three years the law student must pass a written test. A lawyer has become a judge he serves in that capacity for the remainder of his life. Judges can not be removed from their positions.

To Discuss Thesis Topics
Stockton, Ise, and Holtzelaw Will Address Meeting of Graduate Students
The first of a series of meetings for graduate students in the School of Business and the department of economics will be held next Monday evening at the Business building, at 7 o'clock. These meetings, which will deal with the whole problem of thesis topics and research work, were tried last year for the first time. The measure of assistance which they gave to graduate students in this work has justified their repetition.
The meeting to be held on Monday evening will be addressed by Dean Frank T. Stockton, and Professors Ice and Halzcott, all of the School of Business. The next meeting, on Oct. 10, will be addressed by Professor Jennings of the School of Business, and the final meeting, to be held on Oct. 24, will be conducted by Professor John Nelson, of the department of English, and Miss Helen Tisworth, of Watkins Library.

Two K. U. Students Face Deportation Under New Ruling
Non-Quoto Foreigners Must Not Work Their Way,
Declares Labor Department
LINDLEY SEEKING AID
Two University students, Chunlin Lean Lan, Hinghua, China; and George Soloviev, Harbin, China; may face deportation because of a recent ruling of the United States department of labor. Also already withdrawn from his classes.
Solevitch, a "white" Russian living in China, and Lam have been working part time to pay for a portion of their earnings. The students are classified as non-quote students.
The law, which the department of labor may enforce, became effective in August. It states that aliens who seek to enter the United States as students must obtain a financial support to maintain an uninterrupted student status, or that they are willing to work only for board and room. Herefore, alien students have been permitted to enter the United States to pay a portion of their expenses.
Chancellor Lindley is making every effort to find employment for Soloviev and Lan in order that the traditional attitude of good will toward foreign students, held by the University, may be maintained.

This average is determined by allotting 3 points to each credit hour of A in the organization, 2 to each hour of B, I for C, not for D, and a loss of one point for each hour of F. The final figure was arrived at by totaling points and dividing by the number of stu-
In determining the winning security and fraternity in the intersoclastic conference, Mr. Foster said that it was necessary to carry the decimal to four places in cases of apparent ties. Only active undergraduate members have been considered in securing the organization averages.
