Immediately following the program in Fraser chapel there will be singing around a brilliantly lighted Christmas tree in front of Fraser hall.

Students Support Traditions
Everybody in the University is expected to contribute. Those in charge of the affair have indicated that it is up to the students to show by their gifts whether or not they think the Christmas tree trees are worth while as a campaign to raise funds for use on their own campus.
In the past this money has been used to bring foreign students to the U.S., and in recent years it has been used exclusively on the K. U. campus as a loan fund to foreign students all over the country.
Tables placed in the halls of various buildings on the campus where the candies are being sold are under the supervision of the day Janses or管理员.
Art Students Help Advertise Christmas Fund
Numerous posters advertising the Christmas tree fund made by the students in the department of design, are on display now in the University building.

The large one, which hangs in the central Administration building, is the work of the student of design three years ago.
Poster Exhibit Enlarged
The poster which has taken the place of the University map, on the lawn of Foster, was planned and designed for this department this year. To the permanent collection have been added, a poster of the conventional candle holder, which has been placed in the office of the department of design; and a poster made Ruth Hilliell, who had built it just completed a tree pattern poster which will also be added to the group, according to Prof Koehenmayer, of the depart-

Statement Made by Athletic Board to Answer Alumni
Attack Made by K. C. Group on Athletic System and F. C. Allen Draws Fire
"We need no reason at this time why the director of athletics should not coach basketball."
The following statement was issued from the Chancellor's office this afternoon at a meeting of the Athletic Board. The meeting was called to consider a report, brought by a Kansas City alumni group, calling on Dr. K. Allen to drop his work as an assistant coach and coach of bookball, and making recommendations of changes in the athletic management.
The report of the board went on to deny that the present athletic director is not fair to football, holding that the director was not fair to "We believe that the director has

"We believe that the director has been eager for success in football. In material provision for football at K. U. he has certainly demonstrated in his game by passing the game. The completion of the stadium carried forward under the leadership of Doctor Allen is predicated on reasonable success of K. U. foot-
"Students are represented on the board, and have been for 20 years. University president John Koch elected three athletes and two non-athletic members to sit with the faculty members of the Division I basketball Council.

The University athletic board sees no objection to alumni representation in its membership, and is willing to allow the representation as would be possible under the rules of the Missouri valley conference, which has required faculty control. Simultaneously, the organization's working plan of the so-called "big big" group. The board agrees that the coach of freshman football should be under the supervision of all students from all available information, finds that such relationship has prevailed at Kansas.
