Officials Praise Students K. U. Men Cause Little Trouble According to Mayor "University students are of no trouble whatever," said Chief-of-Police C. W. Carman today. "As far as we know, the department are concerned, not a single complaint has been turned in since I was installed in the office last February. I think that the students are appalled upon their conduct," he said. "However, I suppose that the students are human the same as anyone else, and a few minor things probably have happened that haven't beenaired. But as to the peace of the classroom, I think it's by delinquent students." he added. In reviewing the K. U. students police record for last year, Mayon Kreck said today, "There is a great deal of improvement among students concerning the breaking of the law. The old troubles of last year have not as yet made their appearance, and I am still trying to find them. The students are a bad lot at all, and thus far they haven't given us any cause to complain."
