Fall-Sinclair Trial Is Opened Today by Owen Roberts
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1927
Fall Under Physician's Car Prior to Proceedings; Sinchin Seems Unworried
Washington, D. C., Oct. 18—Two women and ten men in varying walks of life settled down in the district of Boston on Friday after noon today to the jury to decide whether Albert Fall and Harry F. Garber could be defrauded the government.
A few minutes later, Owen J. Roberts, chief government council opened the prosecution by outlining the "conspiracy," he expects to prove in court that he stole millions from a famous Tea-Pot Dome oil reserve, to instigate the Saimam oil company.
Fall, thin and old looking, coughes during the proceedings. He had sufed fierce high fever prior to yesterday's proceedings. The necessity of post posting this session was feared for he was under physicians care over night.
This marked the real opening of the criminal prosecution of the two men, who are alleged to have started their activities in 1922.
Similarly, more sturdy bill, showed no trace of worry as Robbins, a former law school dean, leaned on the judge's strained manner towards the jury.
The jury, averaging 40 years of age, showed a sprinkling of small heads to match Stainish's. The old-men is 62 years old and the youngest is 17. They gave their ages, but were approximately 30 years old.
Roberts told of Sinclair's asking in 1922 of a year's visit to a Mexico ranch where oil possessions were started. Then Robert went back to Mexico in 1923 and rented land; and in November 1923 of an oil deal in which Blackman, James O'Niel, Sinclair and others engineered and from which some profits taken in liberty hones, some of which were found in 1922 in the possession of ranch.
Washington, D. C., Oct. 18- Dr. Leon O. Howard, D. Rockford, IL, today retired as chief antiquologist of the United States and served for years of government service and was succeeded by Dr. C. L. Marlett of the department in the department for 39 years.

Students Employ Novel Styles of Stamp Arrangements and Illustrations, Says Postmaster
"I in my varied experience with people," said C. B. Hosford, postmaster of Lawrence, "I ari quite thoroughly convinced now that at least five thousand grand total are honest. This conclusion has been reached after having had many experiences with many different people. It is not to be supposed that difficulty never arise in cases of large or large. We have many adjustments to make but in every case when the person involved thoroughly understands postal regulations and is given permission to dismiss and good feeling reigns.
"As a whole, we have little difficulty in reading the writing of University students. It is usually done carefully and in most cases is quite neat. Few students at present violate the ruling of sending letters, papers and books in laundry cases. However, when this regulation is broken it is more difficult to comply." "In every case," said Mr. Hooford, "such deception is always unwise.
"Carelessness," continued Mr. Hosford, "causes more delay in postal transit than any other one thing. Most people know how to address mail and the packages but in haste the task is often poorly involved.
"Quite a large number of University students have artistic temperament and as a result many letters are beautifully illustrated. This illustrative sketching consists of every-day scenes on the campus; class room-life images in the classroom; international incidents in general. Cleverness is portrayed in this illustrative work.
"It is especially interesting to observe the various styles of stamp arrangement used by many students and teachers." One one-half cent stamp for special use.

Dad's Day Passes, and Jayhawks Recuperate
Another Dad's day has gone in, in the tattered and torn book of history of the University. A number of new dads were here to the formal initiation last Saturday night. Many who were not here, probably think they are a bad idea and should begin if the checks that have been drawn in their accounts.

But tomorrow the Jayhawk spira, will start to collect moria again. The wound which the Widow left for healing was not fully healing. The defeat did not in any degree lower the head of the Jayhawk and next week-end she will be pretty cross. Another busy week-end has been a red afternoon too. has been a red week-end too.
All records were broken for the New Cafeteria last Saturday, when nearly hundred meals were served including the 470 who attended the Dad's banquet in the room. The exact number second was 1192.
New Cafeteria Serves Nearly 1200 Saturday
Although this number was swollen by the banquet, Methel M. Vavranis of the hospital served daily is steadily increasing. The previous high mark for the cafeteria was the Friday of 1984, when more than 1300 meals were served.
The long waiting line for lunch following the 12:30 whirl has been greatly reduced by putting in another server. A test under the new system showed that about 14 minutes is the maximum of time now necessary to go through.
Solarship statistics recently published at the University of Nebraska has shown that students have been deliquent in 11.6 of their hours of registration at the end of the first semester. The women who registered in 4.0 of their hours $f$ registration.
"This number," said Mr. Hofenfeld "exceeds the Kansas City, Kansa, tota and also compares very favorably with other cities larger than Lawrence.
“Our carriers often have humorous experiences in their daily work. Recently, a university woman was unaided when she received a party frock which her mother was to send. The day of the party finally arrived but no dress made its way on her. She took an overnight morning trip but there was no package. He came again in the afternoon;但 still there was no package. When time the woman was almost frantic.
After the postman had left the house in the afternoon something prompted the woman to ask him to wash the mail bag again.
"Couldn't be it?" he noise.
The woman looked and recognized the mother's handwriting replied "Yes. Yes. That's it." That's my dress.
He did so and jettingly drew out a miniature box.
"Could this be it?" he asked.
"As a whole," Mr. Heinford, "I greatly enjoy my work as postmaster. It is delightfully human, and through the countless social contacts I find my faith in human nature has broadened. The one big thing the public expects is fair treatment, and I believe that everyone towards her co-operation I am sure such treatment can be assured.

General Alvarae, chief of the staff or president Callegas, advanced the suggestion that Gomez might be safe aboard a little coastal junker making his way to the Caribbean.
Three federal columns, Alvarez said, had pursued Gomez for nine days without finding trace of him.
All they had to offer was the view on the last resort that Gomes was able to obtain by climbing into the Vera Cruz mountains, but only fifty miles from the town of Vernon.
Alvarez admitted that it was posited that Gomez might be still in the th mountains, "biding like a rat," as his father described in federal force expected in his report.

Anatomy Department Members Prefer Joy of Research Work To Trips During Vacation Time
Members of the department of anatomy treated pleasure trips this summer into research expeditions, took advantage of the finest laboratories in the United States, and net-rowned scientists.
Dr. Henry C. Tracy, head of the department, spent from June 20 to the first week in September in charge of the biological survey work of the marine waters around Mount Desert Island, Maine, which is being conducted by the University of Borrego, of New York and Bur Harbor. Simon Cohen, assistant instructor in anatomy and artist for the department of anatomy, also spent the summer in New York studying the Cohen was the scientific artist with she survey group, and was engaged in making drawings of species taken, as described in inadequately figured previously.
Cohen made as many drawings as possible of the live specimens; most of them were pen and ink and half-tail drawings, but some serve to complete the record of the results of the survey and also form the basis of a series of monographs on fish. Cohen wrote about England which is one of the purposes of the survey. Cohen made about fifty drawings of marine anemels, and perhaps fifty of other species.
Dr. H. R. Latimer, professor in the department, taught at the University for the first summer session of six weeks in August until the middle of August, during which time he completed the study of the external measurements of 770 cat embryos.

Pi Extends Hospitality to Editors of Kansas
An atmospheres of "You're weel come" precluded in the journalist building during the visit of Kanese greeting extended to the visiting editor more than given by Pi II, the author of *The Great Greeting* and the title of the map of the Miip Diator fraternity. He gladly "hook bands with everyone he met, and greeter welcome and good fellowship. Pi was not only a prominent member of the entertainment part of the entertainment committee. He gladly assumed the role of entertainer for those who were intended to be danced or just agreed to be dead, or else just engaged in a congenial conversation part in a gentle amusements undertow.
Journalism and law are Pi's choice subjects. He evidently feels that the proper school spirit can be expressed through the classroom class, and at all convocations, as he is regularly present at such meetings. Pi II was presented to the fraternity on Thursday night; he took the place of Pi I, who was the Pi Upsion mascot for thirteenth years Pi II looks exactly like Pi I, although it is in no way related to the first Pi.
One year and a half is not such an advanced age for a dog, but Pi II had made the most of his years in the junior ranks. He was part of last summer was spent in Beloit, at the home of a member of the fraternity, and Pi became a favorite with a number of people there. But he was never a bad student in versatility, and Pi never passes an acquaintance without acknowledging his friendship. His general contentment with life would indicate that a dog's presence in the university of Kansas is pleasant one.
Eleven faculty men and 120 freshmen at the University of Wisconsin opened a experimental college, the University of Wisconsin recently.

The next month he was again promoted and became Colonel of engineers and commander of the 219th regiment. He was made Colonel of Engineers in July 1919, to become colonel, in the following August, of the engineer's section of the Reserve Officors corps of the 351th engineers reserves.
Dean Walker was closely associated with a wide variety of organizations of which he was always an active member. For two years, 1923 and 1924, he held the office of president of the American College of Engineering, Education.
Other societies in which Mr Walker held membership were: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, the American Institute of Steel Beta Pt. honorary engineering fraternity; the Society of Sigma Xi, honorary scientific fraternity; the American Management Association; the Kannan Engineers Society, of which he was once president; the Phi Gamma Delta, social fraternity.
One of Mr. Walker's outstanding accomplishments was his work in coal mining in the Allegheny Valley Council, done in 1922. He was a member of the committee chosen to do the work, and most of the burden was taken from the careful close fall on his shoulders.
