Co-operation, Not Conflict Exists Between Two, Says Member of Faculty
"University authorities have been most interested in the establishment of the radio station WREN at the Jenny Wren Flour mills and there will be the greatest co-operation between KFKU and the downtown station," said G. C. Shadd, professor of electrical engineering.
At the time when the radio commission of the United States Department of Commerce granted permission to call the call letters they are now using and to operate from a 750 watt station, the permit also included the specification that they be allowed to call the radio station, and they would not conflict with KFKU.
Hard to Find Time
According to Professor Shand it is very difficult for the University station to set a regular time for broadcasting as senior recruits may come in succession and it is often necessary to have concussions on very short notice. There has been no limiting of time by either station, but there has been a decided effort on the part of both stations to avoid concussion. The other two programs in accordance with those of the other broadcasting set.
The KFKU broadcasting set made by the Western Electric company operates at 275.1 meters which is the same wave length as the WREN station. KFKU is a 500 watt set while the Jenny Wren station is allowed
Wave Increase Is Asked
The University station asked the radio commission at Washington for a wave length of 390 meters which would increase the sending power of KFKU considerably. The plan was to have this wave length assigned to our laboratory, including New Mexico, Washington, Maine and Kansas. There has been no reply to this request except the reassignment of the temporary wave length now in use.
"People in Lawrence and over the state of Kansas say that they are not able to get KFKU pluially their radios," and Professor Shand. "There are several reasons for this. First, for every wave length there is a certain number of dead spots and perhaps if the wave length of KFKU becomes too short it will also be hard to reach the station but some of the persons reaching KFKU at the present 275.1 meters would not then be able to get it.

Jackman Program Manager
The programs for the WRN station are under the direction of R. C. Jackman, owner of the Jennie Wren Station, and the programs are under the direction of Harold G. Ingham, director of the University extension division.
"The Jennie Wren Station has been very kind in arranging their programs so they will not conflict with ours," said Mr. Ingham, "the downtown station is a decided advantage over the other stations and the year may possibly bring forth the trading of broadcasting of the two stations. There will always be co-operation between the two."

Chemists Honor Alumnus
In honor of the retirement of E. C. Franklin, B. S., '88, from active university service in the department of chemistry at Stanford University, a committee of about thirty well-known chemists has been formed to collect a fund of $15,000 for the purpose of establishing an ever-living endowed library in chemistry at Stanford University.
Stanford to Have Fellowship Bearing His Name
Concerning the memorial, Science for January 21, 1927, says, "We provide memorials of many kinds to many men for many kinds of public service. But we all too rarely express in concrete form the appreciation of those who have served our quiet persistent and utterly devoted work of research in pure science cared on by these men is usually overlooked by the nation and its contribution to the public welfare too little recognized. The proposed memorial should be made of stone or bronze, but an active, animated one. It is to be one which will contain the fruits of his work to be plucked every year. It is the kind of memorial which he would best like." Mr Franklin graduated from the University of Kansas in 1888; was named professor at the University of 1890-1891; and completed his work under Dr. Ira Remes at Johns Hopkins in 1894. He began his professional work as assistant in the University of Kansas, becoming professor in 1890. He continued in this position until 1900, and became associate professor. He became a professor there in 1900 and has held the position ever since.
