Putnam Talks of Career "All my college career I was engaged in solving problems," said Mark L, Putnam on the West Side of Chicago where he worked. "In my personal work with the Western Electric I am still solving problems but of a different kind." Problems Are Just Beginning Graduate Finds Mr. Patton received his A. B. de- gree from the University last spring, and immediately began his work with the department to conduct real years' experience between his years at college and served in the davy during the war. At the present time he has charge of his com- pany exhibit at the engineer's exposition. "What I would like to get across every student on the lhl," said Mr. Futumm, "is the fact that it is important for you to engage or the activities you engage in, but the method which you use that counts. You learn to meet situations from the experience you gain in an environment where you are away from the correctness of a result. Mr. Putnam will return to Chicago after the exposition. "There is a place in large cores for a person of every degree of intelligence. The height of a man's position is limited only by his ability it is to the company's advantage to be in the best position for which he is best apted."

Police Chief Meets Class Douglas Explains Official's Job to Kansan Writers "It is a mistaken idea which some people have that police departments are made up of men of low morals; they are supposed to be early morning, speaking before the class in editorial writing." "POLICE officers should be the best of men, and the most important." Mr. Douglas said that there had been some misunderstanding as to the work of the Lawrence police force, and he said it was the responsibility of men on the staff. He explained that there were only four patrolmen and one motor policeman for daytime and the same number for night, and the rest were stationed on a day, Sundays and holidays included. Visiting Athletes Ready for Start of Kansas Relays Dope Indicates New Marks Will Be Set in Many Events on Track Saturday Some little talk about turning the Relays into a regatta or a swimming meet was dispelled by the appearance of old Sdh, whose face had lost its familiarity during the last few days. Tomorrow the big event! It was perhaps omnious that yesterday afternoon athletes from the San Marcos Academy, Ocidental, Washburn College, Kannas, Huekell, Wisconsin, and from numerous high school, college, and university events on the contrary event, in spite of the damp, contrary April weather. Underneath the calm exterior of the city is a feverish flame, in antepation of the thrills tomorrow. A thousand hearts beat jerkily, swatty, and a thousand pairs of legs are the contests of skill and speed. Practically all the athletes are now nore, resting, awaking, and perhaps fretting a little at the slightly damp weather. The Texans and Californians paint it in too cool. The Minnesota and Iowa that it is so warm. The entire Wisconsin track trip, which took part in a triangular track meet on the Pacific coast a few days ago, is here. The Oregon Aggie men, after their long journey, are presumably still riding four mile rifle. Our own Kansas Aggies are determined to wrest the coveted title from them. **Scheidanen is Sifent** And what about Kuman? Who are the chefs at Kuman? How are these questions which are in the mind of every Mt. Orend tchnem, Coach Scheidanen has been silently, diligently working to build a number of teams which em often adequately cook in her great aesthetic carnival. Schlademan Is Silent Time after time in the past week the sprint teams have been shattering the 410 and 880 relay records. But the coach would not pollish all this. He is not the type to make rush statements. He would rather have the performances of the meet speak. The world's records in the 140 and 880-yd relays are 423.3 and 1,274.4, respectively. The Kansas Relays records are 43 and 1,292.5. Both marks be lowered tomorrow. Butler College has three relays at Team 13 three weeks ago in 43.2, 1,360 and 3,283, respectively. Butler is entered.
