No. 88
Alumni President Requests Paulen to Study Charges
Over 40,000 Ex-Student
Represented by Letter
From N. T. Veatch,
President
Declaration by the University of Kansas Alumni Association that the charges made by Gov. Jonathan M. Davis against chancellor E. H. Lindley are groundless was made known in the university-crever-chief Ben S. Paulen last night.
The set-*r*-based upon a "dispersion study on the charges," and a "careful investigation of the entire matter," requests the re-appointment of Chancellor Lindley by the incoming administration. Over the signature of N. T. Wheat, Jr., president of the association, the letter "represents more than forty thousand exonerated persons in the universe scattered over the world."
The letter:
*Dr. Eric Pauley.* I am writing you as president of the Alumni Association of the University of Texas at Austin, director of offices and board of directors of this mission, and ex-administrator of the University,astern campus.
"It is our desire to convey to you on vîṣa on the recent dismissal of E. H. Lind lind as a chancellor of the University,
"Realizing the gravity of the situation and feeling quite heavily our responsibility to the students and staff we have built out our aspirations should be formed only after a most careful and dissimulated study on the changes made by Governor Darby and by a careful investigation of the entire unit."
Study Charges
Our investigations have included a careful study of the charges and iscues of the charge in the contact region where certain of the charge pertains to the relationship with the champler were studied.
"Governor Davis in his first statement made five specific charges. They are: In competence, insubordination, procrastination activity, alogosity."
"I regard to *incompetence*, we have no surrender ourselves any more can be further from the truth since Chancellor Linley has throughout his entire occupancy of the office. Our officers and directors naturally have no surrender, and we have a large majority of us have served during the entire time Chancellor Linley has been in Lawrence and we have seen him in all university settings in all University matters. No one familiar with the University and its advancement in the last few years will consider what we want from him; whatever, and we ensure you do not
Debt Procrastination
The charge of misconduct and abuse and the board of administration with the chancellor. We, of course, would speak intelligently on it. However, we do know from our experience that our ability to carry out all orders given to him, it has been due to his desire to protect the University, in this case, to the chancellor his line; as we know Chancellor Lindoe to be, would find it possible to reconcilate the welfare of the school with all of the wishes of the students to which we have sufficient evidence to show were political. For this independence are lack of regard for his own interests we say.
**Persuasion**
An answer to the question of "persuasion" can be taken from our comments on the charge of "intubulationism." No, of course, we are not talking about Lindsey. To take survey of all the orders given to her by some of these orders, or just some of their orders, should have been arrested and we do know how she would react if a situation, his actions have been quick and decisive, where the interest of the United States is involved.
In record to 'political activity', we are an active entity within the administration, special effort to find out whether there is any justification for such a charge and for any action against anyone for any man in charge of a large institution to avoid treading on the territory, information can be blamed for making changes as time goes on. If such chances arise, the information can be blamed for being to be held for results, he should be allowed to decide his own questions of detail, and so it will be hard for you to have loyalty of those in responsible charge under him. We find that the foundation of the welfare of the University and its interest in our students is based upon the standing of the welfare of the University and its interest in our students in his management of the University that would even suggest affiliation.
'Aloofness' Far-Fetched
FOUR PAGES
"The last charge of 'aibofers' seems to be to be the most fachseted of all. This is something we can speak of and that has been done during Chancellor Lindley's entire stay at Lawrence. There never have been such large spirit among both students and faculty, and we have developed since Channel Linden came to the University. Our current memorial camp is being held at the Chapel where we are convinced the two liaisons visited by Governor Davis as examples of 'aibofers', but our understanding is misunderstanding. We know how careful check among faculty, students and alumni there is on the admission process and our investigation discovers 99 per cent of the family, students and alumni are同龄, and there is no problem with this as he is the head of a great educational institution."

First of KFKU's Regular Programs Given Last Night
Musical Numbers and Talks by Faculty Members Are Features
Musical numbers and educational lectures by members of the University faculty featured KPK1's first regular educational program last fall. A message received, the program was a decided success, both with respect to distance, and also clearer and volume. Volces of all speakers were heard distinctly, which is not always true; speakers untrained in broadcasting.
of Radio
Harold G. Ingham, director of the extension division, made announcements of future programs and information, which were signed off announcements were made by John F. Patt, c52, assistant program director. Prof W.B.Downing, secretary of the School of Poetry, announced two vocal numbers and two encores.
Prof. Howard Taylor, of the Schools of Fina Arts, gave several piano sessions in the station reproduced accurately the notes of the piano in the sound-proof studio, and Professor Taylor's slightly different arrangements were apparent to the listener.
Dr. Allen Speaks About Tobacco Cigarettes and their effect on the athlete were discussed by Dr. "Dog" Pugh, a former NCAA basketball coach, lectures on basketball he will give from KFKU. In his first talk, on "Conditioning for Basketball," Doctor Alen pointed out that the athlete who uses cigarettes is payable to the manufacturer and competes with those who do not use tobacco. He brought out the fact that statistics and experience show winning teams and outstanding play.
Prof. Bryan A. Gikinson, of the department of "public speaking," opened a series of talks on debating with a lecture given primarily for high school students. His talk was much in the form of a debate at the college. He spoke at the same time. He spoke entirely without notes, which is not usually the case in radio studios. Bystanders in the operating room of the station had something to laugh at when Professor Gikinson went through gestures used in addressing a visual audience. Both Professor Gikinson and I attended the call-to-air radio voices, caecording to listeners who heard the program.
Members of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity met last night in Wiedemann's tea room for a future meeting place. The fraternity house at 1290 Louisiana st was designed by the architect. No definite plans were made.

Night Replace Liberals
Forced Out
Rome, Jan. 6. - Premier Mussolini today faced a country with an undidable fascist cabinet at the back. Laying down his demands for a rejection received Mussolini and approved an point of three fascist ministers to place made vacant by enforced military rule.

This is a question wh3. 5 is causes students on the campus to lose more knowledge about word puzzles. For when the picture of a certain left-handed person appears in the R, O, T, C section of a dictionary, they are acting as right-handed.
When is a left-handed person not left-handed?
Now, what mysteries process have the "powers" used in bringing such a phenomenon to Mount Oreal. Freckles have been removed from the faces of many persons in the industry who were thought that person who ever bought a person anatomy could be changed from one side of a picture to another.
Then again the wondering students might impulse the reason that you'd come such an event to be brought out of the classroom to staff photographer of the B. O. T. C was asked to take a picture of the forespectionened person, and when the photo was shown to the makeover artist, he thought they couldn't have any left-hand persons in the Skyhawker. Whereupon the servantgranted his手笔 and evolved a plan to change the image features of the person in question.
Shortly afterward the major was surprised when he was shown the picture of the "right handed" cadee upon questioning, the photograph turned the film over on the plate while developing the picture.

Canada Buys From U. S.
Railroad President Says Trade Is Developing
(United Press)
Montreal, P. Q., Jan. 6 — Canada is buying $800,000,000 worth of product a year from the United States, according to the Canadian National Railways, before the Rotary club here. The Dominion is now Uncle Sam's second best customer and operator of America's entire annual export.
"The United States is buying $300,000,000 of goods from us each year," said Sir Henry. "The inter- nationals are on the increase. With the proposition of making the St. Lawrence river navigable and the growing of foodstuffs by people south of Canada, our traffic will no longer further grains.
"The commercial development of Canada is paralleling the development of Mississippi river after the Civil war. Canada's sole problem at present is one of population. The Dominion could easily support a population growth."
"Canada will have a favorable trade balance this year of at least $180,000,000 in excess of that for 1925."
