"Ive got it all worked out to give all men and women a job in Oklahoma and there are more than 75,000 of them. I invite the governors of other states to join me in giving the same.

COUNCIL'S COMMITTEE FACES TANGLED TEXTBOOK SITUATION
Final Plans Made for New Student Initiation Sept. 30
The Student's Argument
From the student's angle, Toland continued, there is the fact that many revered editions do not differ enough from one another. It is maintained, he said, that the use of "canned" notes and their accompanying eylens, is not injurious to the student, but a good form of knowledge to enable him to pass the examinations, and that after all the student is only interested in acquiring new material, it means he be used are immaterial.
"The committee in charge of assembling data in the case of the resolution adopted unanimously by the Men's Student Council condemning unnecessary changes in textbooks has had many conflicting arguments," said Stanley Toland, chairman in charge of the committee today.
According to Toland there are two conflicting points of view. On one side the faculty regards the frequent adoption of a book in order to keep security to abreast of the times. The continuous use of one textbook often makes it impossible for the student to use "common" notes, problems or trivial exercises. In other words, he says, is that in some courses there are no satisfactory texts available, and the professor, in his efforts to make this easier, has published the book that is published in the hope that it will meet the need of the course since a professor, they argue, cannot dine his work with a book he does no
Ceremony to Begin With Traditional Lighting of Hearth Fire on North Hill
Seemingly Convincing Arguments Advanced by Students While Faculty Retaliates in Kind
Final plans for the annual freshman initiation ceremony were announced yesterday morning by Dean of the Initiation Committee. The program will begin promptly at 7:30 on next Wednesday at 10 a.m. in North College Hill Damerner Warned them.
On the platform during the ceremony, will be Chancellor Lindley, Dr. Frank Strong, Miss Hannah Oliver, Dean D Sanders, Mr. John Brown, Mrs. Caroline Sprague, Ms. A M.Wilcox, and two representative each of the graduate senator, junior, school.
The Torch Race, starting at the sound of a bugle call from the stadium, will be led by Chancelor Landry interpreting its purpose and symbolism. Following this, they will take turns administering to the entire class, and they will be invited to officially don the torch.
Notables on Platform
A scripture reading by former Chancellor Frank Strong will open the program at the stadium. Following this presentation, Chancellor Strong will explain its meaning and history. Chancellor Lindley, master of ceremonies, will tell the audience about the college's summer August, 1854, and the reasons for the fire and rackhacket today. Miss Hanil Olivier, professor enceritus of Latin literature, will discuss the unbundling of the University of Kansas.
Following the assembling of the new students around the University baird, the 16th Class of the Mortar Board will light the University Fire in the fire-flood. The significance of this ceremony will then be explained later. The classes are supposed especially for the occasion by Helen R. Hooper, assistant professor of English, will be sung by the incoming students.
TO SING SPECIAL SONG
Former Chancellor To Be Present
The march from North College HI to the stadium, where the ceremony will be completed, is guided by two omnivores of the cheerleaders K-men, Ku-Kus, and Jay Janes. The procession will be greeted at the stadium by the band, and will take place in front of a temporary speaker's plaat.
Members of the committee on initiation are Dean Werner, Raymond Nicholson, Dr. Jasper Schlegel, celler, Prof. F. E. Melvin, of the history department, Dean Agnes Husband, Dr. Mark Ruffin, A. Russell Strobel, president of the Men's Student Council, Prof. Allen Crafton, of the department of speech arts, and Dr. John Albaugh, alumni secretary, Marie Miller, Mortar Board representative, and Dave Newcomer, Sachem representative and chief executive.
The committee has also been informed that a few of the departments have been asked to exchange much co-operation in answering questionnaires sent out each semester as to what books were going to be used for the course, and the book exchange often cannot afford to bly used books because it has no definition that such books will even be used again.
"It is impossible for the committee to make investigations to determine the truth of the complaints, or that such investigations may be correct," Toland said. "The function of the committee is to assemble all of the data collected and then present it to the committee. It also provides consideration in determining the ultimate result of the resolution."
Complaints have been filed concerning changes in the following courses money and banking; engineering physics; personal property; labor problems; American government; educational psychology; private corporations; accounting for businesses 50 A and 50 B; contrasts; geology; business and histology.
"Furthermore," Tolland said, "the students argue that the change in books not only prevents the sale of nice books but also makes it more difficult to buy a new book, which means that the professors should be more careful in their teaching." It might be used as long as possible.
Complains Filed
Members of the committee besides Toland are Marvin Johnson and Robert Dill.
Silent on Council's Action
Chancellor E. H. Lindley was unwilling to make any statement with regard to the fact that he served council in recommending the return of full disciplinary powers to the counsel, due to the fact that the matron had yet been formally授予 to him.
No comment was forthcoming from the Chancellor with regard to the resumption of the school's frequent changing of text books, as this resolution had not been received at his
Chancellor Withholds Comment Until Formal Presentation
The response of the faculty and employee of the University to the student loan fund campaign was, according to Doctor Lindley, most impressive. The Chancellor stated that the engineers responded, was, to bin, the finest expression of loyalty he had seen during these stringent times.
Doctor Lindley stated that he would be glad to make a statement for the Kansan as soon as the matters were taken up with him.
Reduced Student Labor Rates Called Ridiculous
The appeal was next made through the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Carter said, the same as told them that he would not send students out for less than thirty cents an hour.
Employment Bureau Refuses to Place Men at 15 Cents an Hour
"The work of the Employment Burden," said Mr. Carter, "is not just to secure jobs for students, but to secure the right kind of jobs at a fair price. In this regard, we have investigated and found the position to be all right."
The effort to reduce the rate for student labor to fifteen cents an hour which has been made by a local man through the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce has met with the disapproval of the University's diversity Employment Bureau for men.
"It is ridiculous to suppose that a student can afford to work for fifteen dollars and have already received the wages from thirty-five cents to thirty cents in view of the present conditions, but we feel that it is necessary to send the student to work for less.
Brinkley Claims Foul Play
The local man, a salesman, requested Mr. Carter to send him several men to deliver samples for fifteen cents an hour. Mr. Carter promptly refused, explaining to the man that it costs a certain amount of money remain in school, and that to earn that amount he must obtain at least thirty cents an hour.
Ambassador Clark, He Asserts, Fought His Mexican Broadcasting
Believing that "his personal business" had been interfered with by the press, Brinkley said he had asked his supporters in Kansas to withdraw their support.
Mulford, Sept. 27, (UP)—Dr. John Brinkley and today he was called in by the United States ambassador to Mexico, had used his influence in an attempt to broadcast from a station located across from the United States line in
Politicians in Kansas were much concerned with the Brinkley announcement, since he secured his license to broadcast in Mexico, says that the opposition group has filed a lawsuit through Secretary of Interior Wilbur. Secretary Wilbur is a past president of the American Medical Association. Since the association has opposed Brinkley from getting efforts to prevent him from giving a doctor, were inspired by Wilbur.

Gangsters Face Federal Charges of Bribery Plot
U. S. District Attorney Involved in Alleged Accusation
Druggan, Frankie Lake, Al Capone, and Jack Guizik, all of whom have been charged by Johnson as being involved in the plot. Although it was said Capone refused to become directly involved with Johnson, he out the impression he was a "squatter."
Chicago, Sept. 26 - (UP) - Reports that federal officials have uncovered a plot by Perry Druggan and other gargoyle thieves to steal the phone attorney George E. O. Johnson of accepting a bribe were today after Johnson himself was questioned by ouloum Washington.
The reported plot was said to have been resorted to as a desperate move to ruin Johnson's character and to obstruct his efforts to lead leaders on tax charges. Questioned about the reports and his own interrogation, Johnson admitted Washington officials were investigating the plot and believed that day he would be prepared to comment.
According to reports, there was an elaborately laid plan to make it appear that the governor had a government official, and that as the climax of the plot, Drugan himself issued a memo in which he had paid that amount indirectly to Johnson for immunization.
Drugged and Lake, as well as other gang leaders, according to the report, would use this plan as a last resort because of the war Johnson has waged against them. They entered into this war through the United States belief that to discredit Johnson, was the only chance they had to escape eventual imprisonment.

SMITH PLOUGHS OVER GOAL LINE TO SCORE FIRST
Schaake, Page and Borelo
Also Go Over for Touchdowns in Initial Tilt of Season Here
6,000 WATCH CONTEST
'Red' White Is Spectacular for Rocky Mountain Conference Outfit
Scoring a touchdown early in the first period of play, the Kamna Jyawhakwera easily mounted the offensive to win by scoring the game's sixth to 6 score in their first combat of the season. A plunge over the goal line resulted in a stoppage, which the Farmers failed to repel, and Schaiken, Pyc, and Borrello succeeded in getting the ball out. White secured the Aggie touchdown.
"It was a fine game, a good day for it, and the outcome was about as I expected," said Aaron Hunt. "The final gun had sounded. The performance of the team compiled with the expectations of most Kansas fans, and the teams were usually early in the season, there was little fundraising and few noticeable errors." The team also had a good many submissions in order to get as many men as possible under fire and perhaps discover some less promiscuous players.
The double bumble system, used by Kansas, presents a neat appearance from the aidesides and gives to the polish which it licked last season.
Smith Shows Up Well
In the backfield, Smith played an exceptional game throughout at quarter, making consistent gains through the defense and getting tackles from the safety post on defense. Although Black at right half did not hurt him, his interference and backing up the line. Schaake was hardly playing his usual game at half but was always on offense, putting in great interference and backing up the line. Borello, who was substituted in the backfield later in the game, played some brilliant plays, and established a position. Page at full gained consistently and did not miss a point in three trials for the extra counter after touchdown. Page at full gained consistently and did not miss a point in three trials for the extra counter after touchdown.
Foy Is Honorary Captain
Earl Foy, veteran tackle of the Jayhawkers was chosen honorary captain at the inset of the game, and despite a few scrimmages against practice opened holes consistently for the backs. Hamson at end left played practically the whole game half blinded after a quarterback pass to play. He received two passes which netted the Jayhawkers nice gains. Not a bad pass was executed from the center position, for which he scored.
The whole line was playing nearly mid-session football, both on defense and offense. They were opening holes to such perfection that at one time they got a hole over the goal line from the one yard line without hardly being touched.
The Colorado Aggies showed up to a good advantage in the first half but seemed to tire in the second half. Kauai, a substitute guard, broke through with a double and scored by Raymond Dunn and then the boys from Fort Collins preceded to march to their only score of the game. Leading the charge of the Aggies for the win, the defense scored all of the game, honorary Captain "Red" White played exceptional football doing most of the kicking, passing and ground gaining. He was assisted by defensive players who played wonderful game in the backfield for Hughes' outfit.
Approximately 6,000 spectators were there to see the first Kansas victory. Dr. Raymond Moore of the geology department, failed to heed the doctor's instructions and ended the game after having experienced a serious operation last week.
Following is an account of the game: First, Quarter
Kansas was the tour and cliche to inform the second half of the game. On the first play of August 17, two plays by White made Kansas lead by 45. The ball sunk into the goal line and for the two tries. On the opposite play Johnson was hit by a pass, and the ball came through for two runs and a bird shot on the center field. For two runs, the bird shot on the corner created a three-run deficit.
