"The men of the R. O. T. C. of the University of Kansas are the finest I have seen at any of the universities and colleges we have visited.

C. unit Thursday afternoon on Stadium field.
General Duncan, who is on a tour of inspection of all of the posts and R. O. T. c. units in this corps area, met with the staff of a day with Colonel Leroy S.

"The men who receive training through Voluntary Training Camps, the National Guard units, and the R. O. T. C. will be far ahead of the men taken in emergency", said General Duncan in his address to the R. O. T. C. "The sacrifices of the late war were due to the lack of training on the part of the men taken into the service. Thousands could have been saved if they had had precious military training."
The battalion formed in front or Fowler Shores at 4p.m. p. and after stacking rifles, marched to the lecture room of Marvin Hall for an ad-hoc meeting at the General. Cadded Major Coy C. Patterson commanded the battalion.

Advertising Called Servant of Buyer By Marco Morrow
"Auditising should be the servant of the buyer instead of the means by which the seller can increase his sales," said MarcO Morrow, assistant Vice President and Human-Publication in speaking to the students in auditing this morning.
Prospective Buyer Should Find in Advertisements Help and Information, Says Expert
"Some economists have pointed out that advertising is an economic waste and it is true that some forms of advertising may be classified in this way. A commission was recently appointed in New York City to investigate the high cost of re-employment of those detritus of the commission was that the cost of advertising was excessive."
Advertising a Public Servant "Adve, tiding of the right sort will inform the prospective buyer what
MARCO MORROW
commodity will be most suitable to his needs, where he can procure the com modity, and what it will cost him; but if he desires a radio set, man who desires a radio set would be able if the right sort of advertising methods were used, to obtain all the necessary information relative to its parts from the various advertisements."
The use of coverage charts by advertising agencies was explained by Mr. Morrow. Outline maps of the various magazines and papers indicated color, the circulation of the various magazines and papers indicated. Information as to what percentage of the circulation is rural is that urban is included in the charts.
Explain's Work of Agency The advertising agency can thus predict with fair accuracy the number of people who will read magazines, as well as the relative officiating power. Furthermore, the number of useless advertisements being eliminated by means of these methods, he said.
Three debaters representing the University of Kansas will meet the Missouri debating team tomorrow night in Junior College Auditorium, Kansas City, Mo., on the question, "Resolved: That the United States should immediately recognize the Soviet Government of Russia."
As an example of former indiscriminate advertising. Mr. Morrow told of a farm which used a number of farm papers as a medium to advertise its farm machinery. An advertisement for it cost 85 per cent of it was east of the Mississippi and was therefore not bringing results.
The Missouri team is composed of Martin R. Kariewaldt, Benton Lee, and C.B. Mckinney.

Predict Exoneration for Members
Predict Exoneration for Memorandum
That the house members would exonerate the two state officials from any unlawful act was generally predicted. Whether an investigating officer would exonerate whether exoneration would come as a result of Turner's explanation apparently had not been decided upon.
In some Republican circles the charge was being made that Governor Davis was fighting the state and authorizer because of the latter's activities in Florida. Republicans control of the bonus board that will select a bonus director.
Ouster Proceedings Rumored

A senior class meeting, at 10 o'clock Monday morning, in the third floor lecture room of the Chemistry building night by Joe Bloomer, class president.
At this time a convocation of each of the four classes will be called, separate meeting places having been arranged. The under-classes are meeting with the purpose of launching the new Memorial campaign, but as a very large percentage of the class will have much of the memorial fund, the senior meeting will not be devoted to the campaign.
"There is a great deal of detail work that the senior class must go through some time this spring." "And I want to know about the class committee chairman last night. "I propose to get an early start on the part that we know must be done, so that our time will be open and we can solve the problems that are bound to come up."
A general outline of the functions of the various committees was the business of last night's meeting of the committee chairmen. Each committee's work will be fully explained Monday.
"Every senior must be there," was the last warning of President Bloomer. "There is no other way for us to get this work done. And we need a formal embalm campaign meeting, but strictly a meeting for senior business."
