King Football Reigns Again!
"Band Day 1957" will be spelled out in giant letters by members of about 50 high school bands at half time of the Oregon State football game Saturday.
Ruses Arranged
A crowd of over 20,000 is expected as KU opens its 1957 home season. Oregon State is the nation's 10th ranked football team. The Beavers, who defeated Southern California last Saturday, are ranked a 2-touchdown favorite over the Jayhawkers.
Buses will probably be available to take fans from the Allen Field House parking lot to Memorial Stadium.
Arthur C. (Duteh) Lonborg, director of athletics, said he is arranging with the Lawrence Bus Co. to have buses at the parking lot for an hour before game time and at the stadium immediately after the game.
The only rehearsal of the halftime formation will begin at noon. While the bands are in formation they will play to marches, "On the Square" by Panella and "Indiana State Band" by Farrar. All the bands will also be on the field before the game to play the National Anthem.
About 4,000 persons will participate in activities, starting with a parade of the high school bands down Massachusetts Street. They will march from 6th Street to South Park. The parade begins at 9:30 a.m. Members of the bands will be guests of the Athletic Assn. at the game.
Mr. Lonborg said he isn't certain the bus company has the facilities to provide service for fans parking at the field house.
Before the game, films of the KU-TCU game will be shown in the Student Union Ballroom. A buffet luncheon will be served from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Trophy Room. It is open to all KU alumni and football fans.
A reception will be held after the game in the south lounge of the Student Union. Cider and doughnuts will be served. The reception is sponsored by Student Union Activities. Shari Harmon, Kansas City, Kan. junior is chairman.
4. 000 To Participate
$1.3 Million School Two Years Away
Students who have noticed the absence of the seven Sunnyside married student buildings will have a long wait before any more changes are made in that area.
The new building to be built in that area to house the School of Business and the department of economics is still in the planning stage, and no work will be done until the contract is let later this fall.
Keith Lawton, administrative assistant for operations, said the plans for the building are now being worked on by the state architect. He said the 1.3 million dollar building should be in use by the fall of 1959, if no unforeseen difficulties hamper construction.
KU Orchestra Needs Strings
The University Symphony Orchestra must expand its string section. Robert Baustin, director, said.
Vacancies for violin, viola, and contra-bass must be filled promptly. Rehearsal has started on the first concert of the season. It will be Nov. 24 in the theater of the music and dramatic arts building.
The presentation will be the "Concerto Grosso" for strings and piano by Bloch, and "Eroica" symphony by Boethoven. A guest artist, still to be named, will appear on the program.
Anyone interested in joining the orchestra strings section should report to 218 music and dramatic arts building, or call extension 606.

Murphy To Head ACE Meeting
Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy will preside at the 40th annual meeting of the American Council on Education Oct. 10-11 in Washington D.C.
Chancellor Murphy is chairman of the council and an ex-officio member of its executive committee.
The purpose of the meeting is to find better ways of working with the individual student in this period of bulging enrollments, according to the program.
Chancellor Murphy will preside at the opening general session and the business session and will speak as the retiring chairman at the final session.
Dean Margaret Habein of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Wichita will be the recorder for a discussion session between 2-and 4-year colleges. Miss Habein was dean of women at KU from 1946 to 1952.
"In these times of rapid University growth, private support of the University by alumni and friends is absolutely essential to enable the University to provide programs that bring distinction to it," Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy said Tuesday night at the kickoff dinner for the Greater University Fund annual drive in Topeka.

DEMOCRATS BOTH—Gov. George Docking shakes hands with Jack Sullivan, KU Young Democrats president.
'Must Gain House Control,' Docking Says
"We must keep the Democrats in Kansas, and to do this we need a majority in the House of Representatives," Gov. George Docking said at a meeting of the KU Young Democrats Wednesday.
This will be accomplished by the young Democrats of today, the governor said, for they are stepping into the places of the older party members.
"People of Kansas are beginning to realize that the Democratic government is a government for all the people," Gov. Docking said.
"Government is a conflict of forces, but with it all, the Democratic party represents something besides conflict. In governing, we ask if this is good for the people
as a whole, and if it is good for the state."
Gov. Docking said that the main thing he has learned in politics is to run on the issue at hand, not on personality.
"If the Republicans want to throw mud, let them. We'll continue to govern the people as best we can."
Relations between the press and the Statehouse have improved greatly in the last year, the governor stated. "Since we are running an honest government, there is no reason for the people not to know about it through the newspapers, therefore no reason for us to withhold anything. Our offices are open to the press and to anyone at all times."

Chemistry Department Gets $36,930 Research Grants
The chemistry department's research grants this year total $36,930. The grants include two from the United States Public Health Service, one from the Office of Ordnance Research at Durham, N.C., and one from the Petroleum Research Fund Advisory Board of the American Chemical Society.
Smile Next Time - Your ID Picture Is Not Your Own!
Calvin VanderWerf and William E. McEwen, professors of chemistry, received $9,349 from USPHS for research on the resolution of asymmetric organophosphorus compounds. They are preparing phosphorus compounds which are optically active to discover the difference in the physiological activity of the D and L isomers.
The KU Photographic Bureau makes copies for the transcript in the registrar's office, the medical record in Watkins Hospital, the Office of the dean of men or women, and the office of the school in which the student is enrolled.
The next time you face the camera in the process of registration remember that the identification card is only one of five places where your picture will appear.
"We finished the developing, printing and sorting of the five copies of each of the 10,000 students pictures two days after the end of enrollment," said Harry Wright, director of the bureau. "Our regular staff and eight extra girls put the 50,000 pictures into numerical order."
Identification pictures for the two semesters amount to about one-seventh of the work of the photo bureau, according to Wright. It does any photo work for the University. A present project is a brochure for the new music and dramatic arts building, he said.
"A great part of our work is making slides for the visual aids department," Wright said. "We also do work for those writing theses or doing research work requiring a picture or a reproduction of a graph," he said.
Graduate students on this project are: Murray Zanger, Brooklyn, N. Y. William C. Pivonka, Albert and Marvin S. Meizer, New York, N. Y.
Prof. McEwen has also received a grant of $7,667 for research in the synthesis of emetine and related compounds which can be used in the treatment of amoebic dysentery, Lee R. Walters, Lawrence, and Eugene Podrebarac, Kansas City, Mo., graduate students are both working on this project.
The Office of Ordnance Research has given Jaeob Kleinberg, professor of chemistry, and Dr. McEwen $10,714 for theoretical research on the nature of anode processes when active metals are used as anodes. Research assistants are: William D. Hoffman, Kanopolis, Tsu-Tzu Tsai, Tianan, Taiwan, graduate students, and Abe Berge, Brooklyn, N. Y., chemistry teaching assistant.
The American Chemical Society has given Professors Kleinberg and McEwen $9,200 for research to begin in February. They will study the specific metal effects in reactions of metal-cyclopentadienyl compounds.
Chances Good On Travel Funds ASC Head Says
The outlook for a proposal to get travel funds from the All Student Council for exchange students studying in England is good, the chairman of the ASC, Dick Patterson, Kansas City, Kan. junior, said in an interview Tuesday.
J. A. Burzle, professor of German, asked for the funds at the Council's last meeting. Bob Billings, student body president and Russell junior, proposed a plan to charge extra money at a dance sponsored by the ASC, giving the proceeds to the travel fund.
The proposal was tabled at the meeting for further study. Action will be taken Tuesday.
"The University has established five direct exchange scholarships to England," Prof. Burzle said.
"We have the maintenance expense for scholarships but they do not cover travel expenses," he said. "State laws do not allow any funds for travel outside the United States."
Patterson said that the ASC would have to work with Student Union Activities to make the plan work since the Homecoming dance is the only one sponsored by ASC.
These funds could make the University scholarships as attractive as the Fulbright scholarships, Prof. Burzle said.
No confirmed cases of Asian flu have been discovered, Dr. Ralph I. Canuthes, director of the student health center, said today.
He was identified as 2nd Lt. Sidney Arnold Wolff of Miami, Fla.
Little Rock Troops Arrest AF Officer
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — (UF)— Army paratroopers today arrested a youthful Air Force officer, carrying a concealed revolver, on the sidewalk opposite newly-integrated Central High School.
Dr. Canuteson said the hospital has had the normal amount of flu cases and other illnesses this fall. He said there are six cases of flu in the hospital today.
A search party found a rifle in a sedan which Lt. Wolff had parked nearby.
There were no demonstrations and no incidents of violence like those Wednesday.
No Asian Flu Cases AtWatkinsHospital
It takes two weeks before laboratory tests can definitely determine if a flu case is of the Asian type. Asian flu vaccine will probably not be available again at the hospital until next week, Dr. Canuteson said.
