In England the philosophy of education is action; in France it is thought; in Germany it is knowledge. That is the answer educators in those countries would give if asked to sum up their national philosophy of education, said Dr. Paul G. Dengler, Institute of International Education lecturer who spoke Thursday afternoon in Bailey Auditorium. Educator Tells Of European Ideas "England no longer educates for an elite, small group but for all Englishmen and tries to prepare students by teaching subjects relating them to experiences," Dr. Dengler said. France has an elite idea also; not to educate to become socially elite but intellectually elite, Dr. Dengler said. France Educates Intellectuals "The French want to be thought of as benign intellectual. They want to give all their children a chance to share in that elite idea." "Germany's school system has levels that become increasingly more specialized and selective," he said. Dr. Dengler listed several goals of European education: Not to teach subjects alone but to tie in with experiences to give a pupil a general education rather than a specialized one, to keep the student in school longer. "Europe has other problems than to devote time to developing education as they did in the 19th century. They must devote attention to Suez, Cyprus, Morocco and other domestic problems." he said. Dr. Dengler said American education could not be compared with European because each was educating to fit its own environment. Domestic Problems. Too 'No Seat Saving At First Game Committee Says There will be no seat saving at the opening game of the basketball season Monday night. The student athletic committee of the All Student Council decided Thursday at an open meeting in the Student Union that this bill, now in effect in the constitution of the ASC, will remain unchanged for the game against Northwestern. The committee, headed by Dick Walt, Girard senior, also discussed the problem of student seating arrangements for next year's football season. It was decided to propose a referendum so that students might express their feelings in the matter at the ASC meeting Tuesday. The referendum would read: 1. No seat saving whatsoever. 2. Block saving in a restricted area north of the 30 yard-line. The practice of seat saving in large blocks has long been a problem at football games. 3. Seating by classes. The committee felt that if no seat saving at all is allowed, the large, organized groups of students will be eliminated and there will be a better intermingling of all students. If students were seated by classes with the seniors having the best seats, a greater class unity and school spirit would be achieved, the committee felt. The other members of the committee are Ted Barnes, Salina first year law student, and Dan Kratzer, Kansas City, Kan., junior. Have You Seen Missing Student?

(Daily Kansan City Editor) By JOHN BATTIN Two leads collapsed early today after The Daily Kansan received a tip that Ronald Edwin Butler, a student missing since Monday, might have gone to work on a small Missouri weekly newspaper. University officials believe that Butler has enlisted in an armed service. Butler, 20, a Kansas City, Kan. junior, was enrolled in journalism. He belongs to Sigma Chi fraternity, but lived at 1542 Tennessee here. His parents live at 2956 N. 45th in Kansas City, Kan. Calls to a Missouri weekly and a northeastern Oklahoma weekly failed to produce any evidence. Butler had recently cut two ads out of the Kansas City Star by firms advertising for reporters. Butler was reported missing Wednesday to Lawrence police after he failed to attend classes. The sheriff's office, Lawrence police and Campus police said they have no information on the whereabouts of the youth. Loran Dale Cox, Wichita sophomore, lives in the private home where Butler lived. He said Butler never commented on what he wanted to do. Butler became disgusted sometimes, Cox said, but wasn't taken seriously. Cox said there had been no trouble with girl friends. He dated occasionally Butler is described as having light brown hair, which he wears in a crew cut. He is about six feet tall and has a narrow face. It is not known what kind of clothing he wore when he disappeared. Cox described Butler as "basically happy, but had not become too interested in fraternity life." John E. Rodgers, Paradise junior and Sigma Chi president said last night that Butler's parents said late Thursday night in a phone conversation that a check of recruiting stations in the area had failed to provide any evidence. Station Checked Butler had not been too regular in his fraternity duties. Dean of Students Laurence C. Woodruff said this morning that Butler had not attended classes since before Thanksgiving vacation. He attended off and on before that. "It looks like the boy was discouraged over his work and progress here." Dean Woodruff said, adding that Butler withdrew of his own accord before Thanksgiving vacation. Excess Absences Reported Dean Burton W. Marvin of the School of Journalism said he had tried to help the boy more than five weeks ago after an excess of absence reports came to his office. Butler's landlady said Butter was always polite to her and that he paid his rent twice a month. She said she didn't think Butter would be happy in the service. He left Monday morning between 10 and 12, she said, adding that Butter's mother said he didn't take any clothes. He took toilet articles only. —(Daily Kansan photo) HEARD BUT NOT SEEN—Cesareo Pelaez, graduate student from Cuba, practices his part in the "House of Bernarda Alba."
