Murray's Order Overrule'
Wentz Still Retains Place as Highway Commissioner
Commissioner
Oklahoma City, April 25—(UP) —Governor W. H. Murray's ouster order against Lee H. Wentz, Republican highway commissioner, "is null and void." In a letter to the governor had no right to remove a highway commissioner because of specific provisions of the statute enacted by the legislature in 1929 stating such removal was unauthorized, the decision Babcock said.
The decision marked the end of the first legal tilt in Murray's bitterest political battle. Wentz's presence on the left led to a realization in the side of the administration since Murray went into office. Even in the primary campaign, Murray did not jump or arborate to dehumanize the wealthy Ponca City oil man and philanthropist. After he received his first official awards, his first official awards would be to dispose of Wentz. His first message to the legislature in January, 1931, carried a pro-communist right and power to remove Wentz.
Wont replied he would ignore the order. Murray ordered his furniture out of the highway department, and he guarded to "protect the highway offices."

A reporter from the Kansan recently dropped into the University Post Office for no other reason than to buy stamps.

This man with news, Sam Elliot, known to nearly every student on the Hill, also revealed some slight, his facts which are closely related to him.
Sam Elliott, Son of First Kansas Editor. Tells Story From History
The first, Kansas newspaper, known as "The Kansas Free State," was edited by the late R. G. Elliott, father of Sam Elliott. The paper was unusual in that it did not publish a policy as a "free state" and for its short, but influential history. Back in 1855, less than a year from the time Kansas was organized as a state, policy was adopted, and in 1860, random, but were backed by a real cause. Josiah Miller, partner of R. G. Elliott, conferred with Lincoln before deciding on a policy, Mr. Lincoln told the eminent editor to disregard allppolicy, which he said would stand for Kansas as a free state.
Another policy of interest is the following: "It will advocate the principles of Temperance as essential to social happiness, and sees the overthrow of the Liquor Traffic in the only way it can be addressed - by stringent Prohibition Laws."
The father of Sam Elliott ran his paper until May 21, 1856, when Lawrence was raided. R. G. Elliott was not only influential through his fearless stance to make Kansas a state, but also as an investigator of many public works. He was a member of the Kansas territorial legislature which introduced the bill organizing the University of Kansas and instituting the institution. A granddaughter, Miss Maud Elliott, is a professor in the Spanish department of the University. She accounts telling of the time Vice-President David A. Atchison shot at the Eldridge house. Because the one time she was killed, much and much his aim was not so good, he called to his men as he prepared to shoot the cannon. "Lower her a little bit higher, boys, lower their ages" years later this peculiar shell was found on Illinois street by one of Sam Elliott's brothers and it is still in possession by the fam.

"The Fifty Prints of the Year," an exhibition comprised of prints such as "Sunlight on Stones" by John Taylor and "Burnt, Evening," by Kerry Berr, "Evening," by Kerry Eibl, "The immigrants" by Allen Lewis, and others, is being presented by the design department of the University in room 310, at the University building, from April to May 15.
Choice Made From Work of More Than 2,000 Artists
The exhibition is open to all students of the University and townpeople every day from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m, except for Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. According to Professor Rosemary Ketham, of the design department, "The primary interest of the exhibition is to stimulate wider interest in art by offering students an opportunity to offer to the townpeople the best of the year in modernistic and conservative prints, and to present to those interested in art and English a greater concentration of talent." The exhibit be done in the field of design and art."
The exhibition is secured through the American Institute of Graphic Arts at 63 East 56th street, New York, where digital printers for this exhibition were sent to every recognized American print maker known to the Institute, more than one hundred. The printing was devised, called the "Ratio System", first, to provide two one-man juries, one to select the conservative prints, and one to select the commercial prints, and included in the "fifty"; and, to determine mathematically, on the basis of the numbers submitted, how many of each color would be selected to be selected. The final count called for 29 of the 50 printers to be selected from the conservative examples submitted and 21 from those offered by the institute.
Three different sets of these fifty prints were sent on tour, as heretofore, during the 12 months, March to March, making it possible for the exhibit to be seen by more than 50 museums, colleges, and print clubs in 90 cities throughout the United States.

Enterprise Ticket May Be Eliminated in Coming Season
Decline in Sales From Last Year Makes Continuance Doubtful, Werner Says
SAVING TO STUDENTS
"Because of the lack of student support last year, it is extremely difficult at this time whether the student enterprise ticket committee will be able to offer a student enterprise ticket for next year," said Henry Werner, his student adviser and chairman of the committee. "The ultimate effect of this will mean that those students who do support the ticket will have to pay the shape of an individual season ticket for the concert course, the lecture course, and the plays."
According to the statement issued by Mr. Werner, the concert course will cost $5, the lecture course $2, and the plays $2.50, or a total of $9.50. He said that single admissions to the 23 events on this year's ticket cost $21, but that he would see all of the features for $4.50 through buying an enterprise ticket.
In giving figures for the decline in student attendance, he said that in the previous year 1,513 students sold. In the following year 1,513 tickets were sold, showing a decrease of 67. This year only 1,246 tickets were purchased. The decrease a decrease of 267 from last year.
1.500 Sales Necessary
"In order to break even it is necessary to sell about 1,500 student tickets," Mr. Werner said. "In other words the tickets can be sold at a low price of 38 per cent of the student body. This enterprise has brought to the campus such men as Stuart Chase, Martin Johnson, Commander Richard Byrd, John Hancock and has earned students to hear some of the most outstanding musical artists such as Giannini, Irubi, Spiling, and Muzio. Added to this are the outstanding performers in the Kansas City Dramatic club."
in only one-third of the student body is interested in the finer things as portrayed by the make-up of the enterprise ticket, he continued, "when it is time to face the灾患 and shaken the connection with the ticket for next year."
Explains Finance Plan
Asked as to how it is possible to sell the ticket for $4.50 and then expect to break even, he said, "The answer is that the students are getting the ticket below cost on an average of $1.70 per student of the student body. The balance is made up by single admissions and by the sale of concert or lecture or play course tickets to faculty and townpeople who are not permitted to participate in the student enterprise."
"In other words," he added, "the student enterprise ticket committee has been offering the students something or very little. The question arises would the students appreciate values more if they were charged the full price ($5.50, or do they simply like it? what is going on in the word about
Mr. Werner said that he would be interested in student opinion about the ticket and the advisability of its continuance. Communication is essential to the success of room I, Administration building, or in the campus opinion column in the Kansas.
