KU Young Republicans meeting last night. Waiting his turn is Walt McGinnis, Lawrence senior.
Help Purge Party, KU GOP Told
Collegiate Young Republicans can play a vital part in bringing about improvement in Kansas politics, Atty. Gen John Anderson Jr., told about 75 members of the KU Young Republicans Club Tuesday night.
"You Young Republicans can start working now, in an off election year, to aid the party in improving itself and the government of Kansas," he said.
Mr. Anderson disagreed with critics of the political system who say there is "something bad" about politics, and he defended the system of political parties as being indispensable to the welfare of the American government.
Improve By Working Together
"There is a widespread prejudice against politics in the United States," he said, "but we need our political system, and, if there is something wrong with the system we should all work together to improve it.
Books Could Be Worth $85
A first prize of $85 and a second prize of $40 are offered in the Taylor Student Book Collection Contest for University students.
The contest is sponsored by Mrs. Elizabeth Taylor, Kansas City, Mo. Robert L. Quinsey, assistant director of libraries, said Mrs. Tayler is a book collector who now has one of the finest collections in the country on the work of H. L. Mencken, an American journalist.
Entries in the contest must be limited to not less than 20 and not more than 50 books. These books may be a cross section of a larger collection, Quinsey said.
"The size, worth, age and rarity of the collection will not be of primary importance." Quinsey said. "We are interested in the content and quality as it reflects the interests of the student."
Contest entries will be accepted in March. Any students who desire aid
in improving collections can visit the special collections department or the director's office in Watson Library, Quinsey said.

"Only through government can we achieve such objectives as the guarantee of civil liberties and rights," he said.
Referring to furors caused by the Supreme Court decisions on civil rights, he said that when persons outside the government try to handle such situations, trouble always ensues.

Faculty List Delays Student Directory
The distribution date for student directories has been delayed because the list of faculty members and new faculty appointments have not been completed. Robert Davies, Dodge City senior and editor of the directory, said Tuesday.
Davies said he hopes to get the directory out in the next 10 days. He said the cover for the directory could not be made yet since the staff did not know how thick the book was going to be until they receive the faculty list.
