Pictured above are members of the Campus Police force assisted by members of Alpha Phi Omega, service fraternity, as they conduct the automobile safety check in front of Allen Field House.
The check began yesterday and will be concluded today. The object was to inform students of any car defects before they made the trip home for Thanksgiving vacation.
Yesterday the team had to move their operation from in front of the Kansas Union. It seems that the University had some guests from out of town visiting our campus. However, before they had a chance to park their cars, they found themselves waiting in line to be checked. "License number, please. Would you mind turning on your headlights?"
Foreign Students To Go to Mexico
Yule in Mexico
Ole! Bullfights, ancient Maya ruins, and a sunny climate are just a few of the things that will greet the 52 students going on the International Club's annual Christmas vacation Mexico trip.
The students will go to Monterrey and San Miguel De Allende. They will also go to the hot springs at Guanato. Ronald Haertel, Lubeck, Germany, graduate student and president of the International Club said one of the springs is so hot that cold water must be added before it can be used.
The students will divide into two groups after visiting Mexico City. One group will go to the mountains near Oaxaca. They will explore the ancient Mayan city ruins and the
Luis Mayor, Cuba, junior and vice president of International Club, said Mexico City will provide the sightseers with many exciting events. They will see bullfights, be entertained by the "best society" in an open house, visit the Chapultepec Park and Castel, and go out to Lake Xochimilco, according to Mayor.

through the body, the memory and the attitudes."
Engle Discusses 'People, Poetry'
(Continued from page 1)
Emotion and intelligence fight in every poem, Prof. Engle said.-The emotion tries to burst through while intelligence controls it.
"A poem is not simply for self-expression; it's a flight from the personality which expresses it. The poet writes to get outside of himself, but he must compose from the utter inside of his being."
"SHAKESPEARE USED another instrument of a poet — that of the image," said Prof. Engle. "Usually an image heightens·the writing," he added.
Figures of speech, and details of the real world should not be ignored, added Prof. Engle.
"The response to a poem should be the same as a response to experience. It leads the reader on and into a deeper meaning of his own experiences."
State Taxes, Fees Up $221.936 in October
TOPEKA — (UPI) — State Revenue Director John E. Kirchner reported an increase in collections of taxes and fees last month over the same month a year ago.
The increase was estimated at $221,936. The October, 1960, swell failed to offset a slump felt through the first three months of the fiscal year beginning July 1. The total for the first four months of the fiscal year was $54,853,866, compared with $55,240,975, a year ago.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — (UPI)— The dugouts for baseball players at War Memorial Stadium have built-in fixtures for fluorescent lights, but they probably will never be used.
Baseball dugouts are never lit primarily because any lights would distract players on the diamond and might impair their field of vision. No one seems to know how the fixtures came to be installed.

Everybody Welcome!!
Vacation Nears, Populus Leaves
By Lani Mortenson
Contrary to popular opinion Thanksgiving vacation for University of Kansas students begins next Tuesday at 6 p.m.
Not only the students but also some of the faculty members seem to be eager for the few days of rest to arrive.
However, from today until next Tuesday the campus will get emptier with each passing hour. Students have already begun the homeward trek instead of waiting for the final blast of the whistle.
ONE INSTRUCTOR told his class,
"The University does not condone
the cancellation of classes on the day
before a vacation but I will say that
I may not be here next Tuesday and
do whatever you like."
Needless to say there was not one demand for a meeting of the class. The students merely accepted the news as best they could.
"I am going to the game at Columbia," one ivy-league gentleman said. "My home is in Chicago and it is much easier for me to go on from the game than to return to Lawrence."
There have been several reasons offered for the early date chosen by so many students leaving for home.
"What do I have to stick around here for?" said a junior woman. "The results of the English Proficiency are due for publication soon and I do not want to be here when they are released. That would ruin the whole vacation for me."
"The train schedules into Wichita are just perfect this weekend," a practical minded senior said. "If I did not leave on Friday afternoon I

could not be home until the late train Tuesday night."
For the few students left on campus there is not too much scheduled for the five days of vacation. The Kansas Union will remain open and there will be plenty of peace and quiet for study.
Several of the foreign students are being treated to an American Thanksgiving for the first time by spending the vacation in the home of an American student.
It will be lonely on Mount Oread from now until the end of vacation and the town of Lawrence can draw a few easy breaths until the University again converges upon it.
THERE ARE actually many advantages to staying until Tuesday afternoon for the poor luckless student with tests or no transportation. Finding a place to park on Jayhawk Boulevard in the evening will not be such a challenge as it usually is. The Union will not be so crowded and the reserve book which he has been trying to get all semester will be in the library for the first time.
Research Funds to Three Grad Students
Three KU graduate students who are participating in the US Public Health research projects have been awarded additional funds for travel and research expenses.
Research Fellowship special allowances of $250 have been awarded to Nancy Dahl, Kansas City, Mo.; Frank James Rohlf, San Diego, Calif., and Gunther Schlager, Woodside, N. Y.
