Modified County Club Organization to Be Attempted
Limited Funds Are Causes of Revision of Plans, Fred Ellsworth Declares
FIRST GROUPS IN 1909
Immediately after the Thanksgiving vacations, an effort to organize some sort of county club activity will be secretly sent to the alumni, warden, advisory, said today.
"Up to now there has been no effort made to get the county club work started because of the financial difficulties that remain available for use for this purpose." Mr. Ellsworth said to his colleagues, "We are looking forward to be ready for the activity this year. Therefore we are looking around for some new ideas and will try to make it happen before the year than they have ever been before."
The main purpose of the club is to carry the spirit and purposes of the club, including state, state, and the folls at home informed about events at the University.
Last year, there were about 85 of these organizations, which served various functions. They gave expoitions in their counties, and presented pictures of buildings on the campus. One year they organized a basketball team which competed with local high schools, while another formed a football team.
Last year, a county club convocation was held at the University and the various clubs were given an opportunity to meet privately.
No. 64
The county clubs are organization composed of students of the University who come from the same home county.
in recent years the groups have been under the sponsorship of the Alumni Board, which has supported both the Chancellor which outlines policies, makes decisions and in general serves as the governing body of the university committee has been appointed this year.
Since 1909, the county clubs have been in existence. These first clubs however were established by students who were started on the student's own initiative. By 1921 the county club par had caught hold and was in a greater position to offer these activities they have grown in size and number.
Former Warden of Kansas Penitentiary to Take Charge of Federal Prison
Amrine to New Post Dec.
New Orleans, Nov. 24—(UP)—M. F Ammine, recently named warden of the new federal prison in New York, records a recording to word received here from Council Grove, Kan., his home. Ammine formerly state Kansas state at Lansing.
The historic old prison site here was formerly the old federal mall. In 1972, the state enacted a law of justice and converted into a federal prison to house a maximum of 40 inmates.
The building, at Espanla avenue and Decatur street, was the first branch mint and sub-treasury established by congress in 1835, and immediately following the civil war it was in continuous operation as a mint and assay office until 1911. Since that date it has been used as an assay office and as headquarters organization such as Red Cross an dthe United States Veterans bureau.
The prison and its surrounding grounds occupy the site of the parade ground that was used for a Fort, built in 1792 during the administration of Governor Carondelet. It was here that General Andrew Jackson in 1809 ordered an army which he later led to victory over the British at Chalmette. The fort was dismantled in 1821 and demolished so soon that
Togo Enters Exclusive Museum
New York (NESFA)—A hall of fame as exclusive as the social register is maintained at Yale for the preservation of skeletons and stuffed specimens of champion dogs. Doe's can be excavated as a rule.

Walker Talks to Psi Chi
Recent developments in Coghill work were discussed by Prof. G. A. Walker (1985) and Dr. H. M. Sloan at a meeting of Psi Chi, honorary psychology fraternity, yesterday afternoon. His talk comprised a discussion of the problems of the nervous system and the nervous system and the theory that behaviour is directly correlated with growth processes of the nervous sys-
Vocabulary Experiment
Proves Missouri Ability
Columbia, Mo. (UP)—When it comes to knowledge of the English language, University of Missouri students are, comparatively speaking, "not so dumbbell." If one class may be considered as representative of the student body, they are far more inductive in matte content than are college students of Pennsylvania.
An investigation recently was made by Dr. William Learned covering more than 40 Pernsylvanian colleges. He found that the average college senior recognizes only 61 of 100 words in common writing and turns to 36 out of 100 for the freshman.
Doctor Warshaw, professor of Spanish here, gave the list of words most generally missed by the Pennsylvania students to one of his classes. The one graduate student in the class was able to find three of the words of the students in the class came through with a percentage far above that attained in the Eastern experiment.
Kansas City Star Editor Speaks to Journalists
Reed Talks on News Trend at Convocation Yesterday
"Anything that happened before the World War may be classified as ancient history," asserted Reed Robert, news editor of the Kansas City Star, in an address made yesterday after accession of the department of journalism.
"A knowledge of world affairs since the World War is sufficient for news coverage," he said. He stressed also the point that the modern metropolitan newspaper has developed into a group of specialists, and he added, "the last few years," he added. "Instead of a universal copy desk, taking up the space we now have separate departments, each made up of specialists in their particular field, and each taking care of news."
LAWRENCE, KANSAS. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1931
Asked what kind of news was most interesting to readers of the Star, Mr. Reed answered that he believed a 'good smelly cinnamon roll' would be the most readers. Preceding Mr. Reed's address, Chancellor E. H. Lindley presented the Henry Schott Memorial prize to Charles E. H. Lindley. The prize is one which is given annually by Mrs. Frances Schott, in memory of her husband, the late Henry Schott, graduate of the University of Waterloo, and in news- and advertising work.
Before presenting the prize, Chancellor Lindley spoke shortly about his acquaintance with the late Dr. Robertson, a dynamic personality, the Chancellor said, and his interest in Kansas
Before his death, Mr. Schott had hoped to make his home at Lawrence, and to have had more direct contact with the University. "This prize is a small expression of Mrs. Schott's love for his dream," Camille Chandler Layd said.
Mr. Reed also spoke at a dinner meeting of Delta Sigma Chi, professional journalism fraternity last evening.

Hospital Evidence of Appreciation of Medical Needs
First Development Started With Formation of Association in University
PHYSICIAN APPPOINTED
The new Watkins Memorial infirmary, located on the University campus is an evidence of the importance of the medical needs of the students in the University of Kansas, which was one of the first schools founded in the United States. The first steps taken in the development of the hospital and dispensary were made in 1906 when the Hospital assoc-
In 1905-06 a group of faculty members including Dr. W. J. Bougartner the zoology department organized the original University Hospital association. These men drew up a constitution and established the organization of the organization. Since that time the work of the organization has been steadily increasing.
First Physician
The first physician was Dr. S. C. Enkey of the department, who was appointed in 1906. The original voluntary fee was $1 per year. The first years membership numbered about 180. An early University catalog for that year included a list of allally guaranteed" medical care in time of sickness. This was in accord with the plans which provided for "care at home" for those whom that which their parents might give prevention of the spread of contagious diseases; and care especially of those who could not afford to remain in the country if services were added to their expenses."
At its meeting February 26, 1908, the Board of Regents endorsed the work of Dr. H. L. Chambers in a report after the plans were developed. The constitution drawn up provided for the organization, the duties of the Board of Regents and membership.

When in 1917, Doctor Naismith left for service in France, Dr. John Sandwalt Louisiana street. After two years he was succeeded by Dr. Eugene Smith who also had served on the faculty of the University of Florida where a change was made making the fee compulsory in place of voluntary. The demands on the health service increased greatly and a part time assistance was offered. Dr. R. H. Edinham was appointed to this position. In 1923 he was made head of the health service upon the retiree, and Dr. M. Amubard was named his assistant.
By 1928 the service had grown to such proportions that it was decided to have a full time staff. Dr. Ralph I. Carushelon was appointed director and head of the examination. In 1928 the plan of routine examination for freshmen was instituted. In 1929 the staff was increased by the addition of an intern. Dr. Boviscrea Lince succeeded Doctor Sparks in 1930.

Manhattan College Men Discuss 50-50 Date Plo
Mauhattach, Kan., Nov. 24—(UP) Nine out of 15 Kansas State college men approached on the question of letting co-eds pay half the cost of a "date" in favor of the suggestion. Those who violently or mildly恶言相逼 to it.
The nine who favored co-eed participation in payment agreed with 14 kindred spirits at Utah University, who recently formed a "50-50" club.
Forrest Schooloy, Hutchinson, a football and basketball letter man, answered the proposal with an emphatic "no" but refused to elaborate. C. M. Rhoades, Newton, business executive, Linda Cook, and Ray Spence, Salina, head cheer leader were among those approving the "dutti reat" plan.
Adolph Hraha, president of the student council and star guard on the football team, considers the Utah proposal a "noble experiment" but Capella says it's not. The football team said, "The boy always has paired the entire bill and it sort of goes against the grain for him not to do it." "It makes your date seem too independent if she pays half the bill," was the comment of Dean McNyhee, a解说员.

Talk on the Hill this morning was concerned mainly with two subjects, a group of young adults and freeze compounds to put in automobile radiators. Hovering above every conversation was the specter of turkey wings crashing into a springy walk of the surge of students coming onto the Hill may have been the reason for the crispness of the air and the brightness of the early rising sun against the clear blue of sky, as long it seemed,
