One no one has yet completed the twelve matches required in order to be eligible for the prizes offered by the Men's Student Council and the W. S. School. They are Wooley and Diers and Diers, have finished eleven matches, and four couples have eight matches behind them. Those who are two thirds behind Wooley and Diers, Drum and Douglas, Everone and Tolle, and Wylie and Warrington.
Free Contestants to Finish
Crane球队 which many more couples would finish the requirement for prizes so that there would be a real contest for them," said Felix Mach, c31, chairman of the tournaments.com team in the tournaments this year will determine whether or not they will occur again next near."
The smaller tourneys are proceeding more rapidly. In the chase contest the final round is just about to begin, and the final matches have been played. In the upper bracket, Leonard Jent will play the winner of the Trillow-West non-Krishlin will play the winner of the Anderson-Lewis match.
In the checker tournament, all of the quarter-final matches remain to be played. They will be Baker versus Osborn. Wall versus Jackson, Tolme versus Marshall, and Bein versus Ibis of the Googler-Anderson counter.
Prizes Have Been Selected
Prizes have been decided upon initially, but they look from Wednesday, when the winners are named.
Only one midtourne has been connected with the tournaments thus far, and three deckes of playing cards have been taken from the Union building, and three others to the game. The committee regrets this very much since players are prevented from enjoying the game to the fullest except in fortuneable reputation. Members of the tournaments committee expressed a hope that no more trouble of that nature will ever come.

Boylan Will Case Decided in Favor of the University
Medical Surgery Research Will Be Established From $60,000 Request
The University of Kansas will receive between $50,000 and $70,000 as the result of the decision of Judge F. D. Hutchings yesterday in the court of Wyndette County district court. A jury had disagreed on the decision when Judge Hutchings took the case from the Boylan estate to a favorable investment fund in connection with research in surgery at the University. Heirs had contested this will in the courts on the grounds that Mrs. Hutchings had the right mind when she signed it.
Chancellor's Comments on Gift
After attorney's fees and court costs have been deducted from the original estate, more than $250,000 has been awarded to University. "R" in through the efforts of Dr. C. C. Nesselrode, professor of surgery in the School of Medicine, and friend and counsellor of Mrs. Boylan, that was involved in Chancellor E. R. Lindley in commenting on the court's decision, "I feel deeply indebted to Doctor Nesselrode and to the other members of the faculty for the assistance in securing a gift from Mr. and Mrs. Boylan."
Mr. Roylan Conceived Idea
"This gift is the fruition of our team," Mr. Roylan, who died a year before Mrs. Roylan's death. He had a vision of giving the people of this state the advantages they could have by recent resources surgery."
The income from the bequest will be used for research in surgery in the University Hospital in Kansas City, Kan. This hospital is affiliated with the University, several of the faculty of the medicine being on the staff of the hospital.

Plan for Liquidation of War Debt Presented by Group
Paris—(UP) The crucial session of the international financial reports at which the fate of the reparation conference hang in balance began at 11 a.m. today with all delegates in the German parliament and, later the German delegation headed by Dr. H. J. Alumann Schacht left the conference room. It was apparent that they had presented a new proposition to the allies for liquidation of Germany and refused to give credit powers a chance to consider the new terms.
Officers for next year were elected yesterday by the Mathematics Clubs those elected were: Ella Baker, presi- tendent of the Math Department Helen Klemp, secretary and treanurer; Pearl Millard, social chairman; and Miss Floreace Black, faculty adviser.
Members of the German delegation insisted to the United Press that the conference was not over. The Germans said that Schacht of the bosses had insisted that the entity figure either up or down from previous German offers.
After the election Miss Winnie Macon gave an interesting speech on "The Seven Bridge Puzzle."

It was understood that in view of the fact that final settlement had already been reached wide gap separating the German offer and the command of the allies, the Göthelman gave the German for temporary settlement. Despite the German readiness to discover a provisional settlement, it is known here that France is opposed to agree-

K. U.'s Telescope Will Be Installed by End of Term
Only 14 Stations Better Equipped; Instrument Ranks 12th for Efficiency
Installation of the large reflecting telescope will be completed at the University observatory by commencement, Dimmore Alter, professor of astronomy. The two-titan refracting mirror has been finished for some time. At present the two-ton supporting castings have been mounted on the concrete base which goes down to bed rock, and every piece is mounted on the mounting of the telescope itself.
Twelfth in power in the United States, the telescope, will place the K. U. observatory fifteenth in efficiency and West have much better libraries and more accessory instruments than we have here. Professor Alter explained, "However," wherever there is room to Ohio, west to California, south to Arizona, or north to Wisconsin before a telescope equal to one this could be found."
To Study Asteroid
Professor Alter characterized the mirror as "the best of its size in existence because of the material used" (Ellen J. Keller, *Reflecting Mirrors*, has a coefficient of expansion considerably lower than that of optical glass and thus needed heroforestra in reflecting telescopes.
Study of asteroids will be continued on an enlarged program so soon as the planets are found. It is hoped, 'Professor Aler said, "that the installation of the new reflector will prove to be merely the result of a new program, in which not only positions are taken but also orbits computed and the perturbations in their orbits are studied.'"
"Asteroids," Professor Alter explained, "are midgets world varying in size from three miles in diameter to just a few meters on the earth. The larger ones are probably the result of the explosion of a plane between Mars and Jupiter, and the smaller ones, the result of exceeding explosions of these frag-
"By observing such bodies distances to the sun and other planets can be computed very accurately. The very small asteroids as a point of faint light, made it possible to make such observations more accurately than on other moons or planets of 13 million miles made the quantity to be measured large by several times than in the case of others. In 1970 Witt in *Journals* 1808, will be at the minimum distance from the earth for the first time since its discovery and the first time since its observation of the positions of the comparison stars along its path have been made that the few days may then pass before they disappear. This little chunk, ogephas less than ten miles in diameter, has become more important since we know the moons Jupiter and Neptune. It would be strange if it should prove that we had already discovered the nearest of all the asteroids known, coming even twice this close and such a discovery would be worth so science more than the total time required for an asteroid to boil the host of asteroids put together."
To Have Full Program
The K. U. observatory is planning to adopt the roterid problem as its regular program. The new reflector will be used at night, except when moonlight or winds interfere. Positions are to be obtained by photography, the length of exposure varying from one inch to one hundred, depending on the brightness of the asteroid. The plate is then carefully measured in a micrometer camera and positioned at one fifty-thousandth of an inch, and the position in the sky determined by the distances from the asteroid image to those of the stars.
Mr. William Pitt of Kansas City, an enthusiastic annotate astronomer, ground the reflector and gave it to the University. The telescope has been enabled to obtain at a cost of about four thousand dollars a high grade telescope that could not be bought for less than twenty or fifteen thousand
Professor Alter, who has a Guggenheim fellowship to England to study rainfall, expects to leave Aug. 24, if he decides to go this year.
