Registration Figures Show Probable Loss in Enrollment
A probable loss in University enrollment was indicated today when registration of 4.043 students showed a decrease of 223 from last year's Thursday figure.
However, the above figure is expected to climb to around 4.250 when late enrollments are accepted from 9:30 to 11:30 o'clock Saturday morning and be increased still further when enrollment figures are received from the School of Medicine in Kansas City.
Last year's enrollment figure established an all-time high with a total of 4,613 students, 268 of whom were medical students in Kansas City. This was an increase of 20 students over the previous record enrollment of 1936.
Both the psychological and physical examinations, which are required of all new students, also show a decrease in new students
At noon yesterday, the K.U. hospital had examined 1,160 students, 741 men and 410 women. This was a decrease of 73 students from the figure of 1,233 last year. These two exams are a close check because they are required of all freshmen and new students.
The registration and enrollment figures will not be complete until after Saturday's re-enrollment and late registrations, but even then the figures are expected to be lower than last year.
and freshmen. By Tuesday 1,027 students had taken the psychological exam showing a drop of 273 under last year's count of 1,300.
No official comments or explanations have been given for the drop, but students discussing the probable decrease attribute it to the "unsettled conditions throughout the world."
Nazis Keep Up Steady Attack on British Isles
Londoners Admit Vast Bomb Damage
BY UNITED PRESS
Damage to London in the last 24 hours is admittedly vast with many store and government buildings among the wrecked or damaged structures in the center of the capital. Night time raiders caused greatest destruction, the Germans using a new type bomb that exploded with comet-like flashes. The Nazi war planes continued to dive through clouds, to strike, and climb away.
Of perhaps greater importance, however, were the British counter-blows against Italy and Germany which included attacks on the Reich which struck a children's hospital, which will lead to "punitive" warfare against Britain in retaliation. British sources took the report calmly, considering that the Germans were already doing their worst.
The British navy went into action with a bombardment along the Mediterranean coastal road leading to Solum and Sidi against Italian forces driving into Egypt. The British air force also hom-

Swarthout Greets Fine Arts School
P. W. H.
Dean D. M. Swarthout of the School of Fine Arts, extended the greetings of the school and faculty to an assembly of the students of music and art this afternoon.
At the convocation, held in Frank Strong Auditorium at 3:30 today, recital cards were given out to the music students. This was the first recital of the year.
WEATHER
Fair, slightly warmer extreme southeast. Friday, fair except partly cloudy and slightly cooler west portion.
Rumor Wrong; Tibbett Here This Spring
Campus rumors that Lawrence Tibbett would cancel his engagement here for the second time were squelched today by a wire from Tibbett's agent received by D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts.
Besides Tibettb, the University concert series is offering six other attractions. They are, Luboshutz and Nemenoff, crack piano team; Argentinita, the renowned Spanish dancer and her dance group; Zimbalist, famous violinist; Novaes, renowned Brazilian pianist; the Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra and a Young American Artist program featuring Virginia Haskins of the Chicago Opera Company; and Thaddeus Kozuch.
The throat trouble which prevented the singer's appearance here last spring will keep him from keeping his engagements this fall, but he will definitely start singing again not later than January when his contract begins with the Metropolitan Opera company. His appearance for the concert scheduled for Lawrence next May is assured, the wire stated.
Convocation Starts Fete For 75th Birthday

The convocation, beginning the seventy-fifth birthday celebration for the University, also marks another anniversary—the

The zone system will be in effect Monday, but until then it will be first come first served. Students who park out of their allotted zones Monday, will risk receiving a ticket.
Regulations prohibit parking on Jayhawk Drive, the central campus road, and faculty members as well as students will be required to stay in bounds as far as zones are concerned. Permit applications may be obtained in the office of Mr. Henry Werner, Room 1, Frank Strong hall.
The penalty for parking out of zone or without a campus parking permit will be a commons to appear before the parking committee of the Men's Student Council, and possible fine.

At the opening convocation one year ago, Chancellor Malott made his inaugural address. Another talk is scheduled for the Chancellor tomorrow, when students will also hear Mrs. Elizabeth Reigart, from the Board of Regents.
The exercises will start with a processional by Prof. Laurel Everette Anderson at the organ, followed by doxology and responsive reading led by Prof. W. L. Burdick, dean emeritus of the School of Law. The Lord's Prayer will be offered and the University Band will play "Elsa's Procession to the Cathedral" (Wagner.)
After the traditional hymn, "Duke Street," which is sung every year, Mrs. Reigart will make the opening address. After the next address by Chancellor Malott, the convocation will close with the singing of "Crimson and the Blue."
Welcome Mat Out On Union Steps
Free dancing and free refreshments will be inducements offered by the Memorial Union, Saturday night, to attract students and faculty to the open house, an annual affair.

Miss Persis Cook Dies in Norton
Miss Persius Cook, former secretary of Mr. Henry Werner, died this morning in Norton, Kansas. Miss Cook was graduated from the University in 1918. In 1930 she accepted the job as Mr. Werner's secretary and worked until last spring.
Commenting on her death, Mr. Werner said: "She gave to the office here and to the students a loyalty and unfailing service which could never be questioned. Many students still speak of her with a recollection amounting to an affection for the way in which she served in her capacity as my secretary.

Class Men Cute or Mute
As official open season on blind dates, the beginning of the school year offers a rare opportunity to the observant freshman to study human nature while it is running on all six cylinders.
A blind date is a thing which calls forth one's inner resources. You may meet the coming glamour boy, or, on the other hand, you may draw something that should have been killed at birth.
There is nothing comparable to the feeling of suspense you get when you round the last bend in the stairs, and wonder which of the little chums standing so bravely below, is yours.
The nicest surprise in the world is to rate a nice, fairly tall, not too hideous boy, who can carry on a pleasant and intelligible conversation, dance on his own feet, and is not given to attacks of sulking.
Using this type as the top of the ladder, your luck may present you with any of the following neatly typed blind dates;
The kind that turns you anywhere but loose, the kind that converses by means of grunts and eyebrow twitchings, a la Neanderthal man, and the kind whose budget runs to a coke, and a walk home from the Jayhawk when it's too cold out for anything with legs.
As for the men, they very definitely have their side of the question, and, as a rule, are nicer about the whole nasty business, than anyone has a right to expect.
So here's happy hunting, and may all your blind dates bring tears of ioy to your eyes!

Practice Grid Tilt on Saturday
Henry Orders Scrimmage Under Game Conditions
By BOB TRUMP The Kansan's Sports Editor
So pleased was Coach Gwinn Henry by the results of yesterday afternoon's workout that when the last sweat-soaked griddster had disappeared into the cool recesses of the dressing rooms, the Jayhawk mentor mopped his brow and proceeded to announce a practice scrimmage under regular game conditions for Saturday afternoon. The contest will start at 3:30 and will probably be held in the stadium.
Despite the fact that the first test of the season against Iowa State will still be two weeks away when the Kansas varsity takes the field for Saturday's practice game, Henry doesn't care to let any grass grow

under his feet. He is especially eager to keep pace with the Cyclones, who will clash with Luther at Ames this weekend.
The Jayhawks are conceded a good chance to trip the Iowa State eleven this year, but the experience which Jim Yeager's men will gain by playing two regulation contests before turning their attention to Kansas should make them tough to defeat. Henry, on the other hand, must gear his charges for one of the big games of the season by ordering rigorous scrimmage sessions.
Freshman Coach Wayne Replogle this morning issued a call for all freshman football candidates who have not yet checked out equipment to report at the dressing room under the west side of the stadium at 3 o'clock this afternoon.
Yesterday afternoon's scrimmage was similar to the one held the day before except that Henry divided his defensive team into about half varsity athletes and half freshmen while using only varsity material on the offensive. Once again particular stress was placed on passing and running but the kicking department also came in for its share of attention. Prominent among the passers was Dick Miller, Ralph's 184 pound
brother, Harlan Altman, Ed Suagee, Marvin Vandaveer and several others.
Whether Henry will order strenuous practice sessions for today and tomorrow with the intra-varsity game scheduled for Saturday is a matter of conjecture. However, one thing is certain—the Jayhawk training program is rounding into shape rapidly without a single hitch due to injuries.

And Jim Yeager Shakes Up His Sophomore Backfield.
Several members of the Big Six coaching fraternity besides Jayhawk mentors Henry, Hurt, and Lansing are experiencing difficulty in finding suitable reserve strength this fall to bulwark their starting elevens.
In fact, the only points on the Big Six map from which cries aren't emanating for bigger and better reserves are Lincoln and Norman where Headmen Jones and Stidham are rubbing their hands over visions of bulky line-men and backs four deep at every position.
DOWN AT MANHATTAN, Coach Hobbs Adams has given a number of his varsity performers the task of learning to play two positions in an attempt to build a reserve supply before Kansas State tangles with Em-

Lindley Will Names Widow
The will of Dr. Ernest H. Lindley Chancellor-Emeritus of the University who died aboard ship in August on the way home from the Orient, was filed in probate court in Lawrence yesterday.
Dated Jan. 2, 1925, the will included a codical providing that Karl Klooz, bursar of the University should act as executor in case Mrs. Lindley should be unable to do so.
All property of the late Chancelor-Emeritus is left by the will to his widow, Elizabeth Kidder Lindley, and she is named as executrix of the will. The will covers a single typewritten page and provides also for the payment of any debts outstanding at the time of Doctor Lindley's death.
Although the inventory to the estate has not yet been filed, it is understood to consist largely of life insurance.
Employment Bureau Wants Butcher' Two Barbers, Electrician
Wanted: A butcher, two barbers and an electrician.
Marvin Goebel, secretary of the student employment bureau, sent out this call this morning to men registered with the bureau.
"We have plenty of men registered to fill these jobs." Goebel said, "but they haven't filed their Lawrence addresses. All men wanting work through this bureau must notify us as soon as they know their new addresses."
Figures on men placed already this year are incomplete, Goebel said, but will be available next week.

All students who did not enroll at the regular time, or desire to make changes in their schedule may do so Saturday morning at Robinson gymnssium from 9:30 o'clock to 11:30 o'clock, the College office announced today.
New and late enrollment students will use the north door; enrollment changes will be handled at the east door.
Reading Courses Limited to 30
The School of Education will pursue a limited program for the improvement of reading this fall under the direction of Dr. Bert A. Nash, it was announced today. A larger program has been given the last three spring semesters, with about 125 students each semester.
The course is open to any student interested in improving his reading, but carries no credit. There will be a fee of $2 to help defray the expense of the material used. Students may enroll by reporting to room 18 in Fraser hall sometime Monday, Sept. 23. Classes will meet one hour for three days a week. Enrollment is limited to 30 this fall

SESSER, Ill. (U.P.)—Sept. 18—Mr. and Mrs. Sam Moore ate a $2,221.63 peach at breakfast the other morning. It cost that much to nurse their 50-acre orchard through a cold winter, and the lone peach comprised the entire crop.

Coach Don Faurot's latest step to break the drown of ends at Columbia which began with the graduation of the Orf twins, Stillman Rouse, and Blaine Currance last spring has been to move Bob Brenton, former Kansas City Central high school star, from the center of the line to the flanks.

Recent practices at Iowa State have witnessed five position changes in the sophomore backfield ranks as Coach Jim Yeager seeks to balance the cambat and reserve strength of his ball carriers. Ellis Alexander, burly 190-pounder, has been transferred from the tailback post to fulback, while Paul Darling, who held the blocking assignment in early sessions, is working out at both left and right halfback positions. Bob Lechtenberg has been moved from quarterback and now is doing time with the right halfbacks. Roya Lohry has been shifted from the left halfback list to the tailback group, and Jim Wertman has been sent from the blocking position into the left halfback ranks.

A Two-Ocean Navy
Prompted by the realization that Great Britain's navy may never be in a position to aid the United States, a new naval policy based on the maintenance of a two-ocean navy has been recently approved by President Roosevelt and the secretary of the navy and issued to the service. The policy supersedes both the 1933 and the 1937 naval policies, although, as a matter of fact, the 1937 policy was never approved.
Prepared by the General Naval Board, of which Rear Admiral W. R. Sexton is president, the statement lists as its fundamental policy: "To maintain the navy in strength and readiness to uphold national policies and interests, and to guard the United States and its continental and overseas possessions." To accomplish these ends the policy specifically describes the needs of the navy, including the building and maintenance of up-to-date ships and aircraft, the establishment of naval bases, requirements of personnel, materials and other phases of naval operations.
The new statement makes the maintenance and operation of an Atlantic and a Pacific fleet the fixed policy of the United States in peace as well as in war, while the policy which was superseded declared it to be the purpose of the government to maintain a navy which, in the event of an emergency, could be expanded into a two-ocean navy. The policy is further intended "to develop the navy to a maximum in fighting strength and ability to control the sea in defense of the nation and its interests."
The policy which until further notice is to guide the navy in its operations and in home and foreign waters, like many other policies, requires money, men and equipment before it can become more than a scrap of paper. If the navy can be expanded and maintained in the manner described in the arm's new policy, the United States and its possessions can be adequately "guarded." But it is well known that all branches of the United States armed forces have had similar plans that looked well on paper, but failed to materialize in practice.
TB Program Continues
A German victory would make this country's gold hoard valued at $21,000,000,000 valuess, Dr. F. Cyril James, vice chancellor and principal of McGill university, stated recently. Perhaps Doctor James would do well to explain just what value it has at the present time buried at Fort Knox, Ky.
Assurance has been made by Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the student health service, that food handlers in fraternity and boarding houses and restaurants will again this year be given tuberculin tests and an x-ray follow-up in the case of positive reactors. The program will get under way as soon as the rush of new student physical examinations ends.
Although this public health measure had been tried—ineffectively—at the University in previous years, it was not until late in the spring semester last year that teeth were given the measure through a ruling of the Pan-Hellenic council which provided for a fine for its affiliates for failure to have food handlers examined. Voluntary response on the part of boarding houses and restaurants was brisk, but
the year ended just as the program became well started.
This year the opportunity exists to make the testing of food handlers more encompassing and therefore more effective. Students, whether in dependents or members of organized houses are entitled to full protection from the possibility of contracting tuberculosis.
The newspaper Messagero at Rome claims Paul Revere was an Italian who hated the British and was chiefly instrumental in driving them out of the United States. The paper further states that he was born in Italy in 1735. It's about time Der Angriff came out with a statement that George Washington was a German who also was sore at the British and who was born in Berlin.

Chinese Leader Consults Paul Moritz, K.U. Grad
Generalissimo Chiang Kai Shek, leader of the Chinese nation, called upon Paul Moritz, honor man of the class of 1939 who recently returned to his home after a year in China as the national Y.M.C.A. representative, for suggestions on the Chinese general program. Moritz, surprised and $ ^{\dagger} $
impressed, reports the interview this way:
"Chiang Kai Shek seemed hopeful about China's position and expressed the idea that he was confident that they would be successful ultimately. He said that if they were, steps would be taken to establish a liberal democracy in China and cited as evidence that although 93 per cent of all physical equipment of their country was destroyed by bombing, there were actually more students in the universities and colleges than ever before and that there were more water and light plants and more industrial equipment now than before the war." Escape Injury
Escapes Injury
Although located in many precarious positions, Moritz escaped bodily injury. He saw much action and talked to several of the Chinese leaders. His impression is that Chiang Kai Shek is a real leader and a greater man than Madame Chiang Kai Shek is a great woman, although her reputation may be greater.
Moritz spoke at nearly all the colleges and universities he visited, at times in conditions of extreme cold. He learned the Chinese language quite well. He said that, like Lawrence of Arabia, he lived with the people and followed their customs.
Respected Countries
The two countries most respected by China at the time he was there, Moritz said, were Russia and the United States, in that order. Their respect for Russia arose from the fact that it was the only country supplying China with munitions. They show a great deal of respect for the United States and have a lot of confidence in it, according to Moritz.
"From government officials clear on down the rank to the man on the street," he related, "the Chinese people show a keen interest and friendly feeling for the Young Men's Christian Association."
Moritz expressed belief that China has a great future in industrial and economic trade and soon that country will display a political influence in the world.
Opening of Union Fountain Brings New 'Jelly' Methods
With the opening of the new Memorial Union fountain, University students are changing their jellying technique to conform to the blue and silver elegance of the new fountain.
Completed at a cost of $15-
000, the entrance of the fountain has been done in blue and white asphalt tile, and opens onto a fountain room, twice as big as the old.
The floor of the mountain is done in red with an olive green trim, and the walls are of plaster
with a light peach finish. All the lighting is of the new fluorescent type.
Semi-circular booth of bleached Filipino mahogany line the walls, and the center of the room is occupied with single and double square booths. Circular booths, built to accommodate 10 persons, are placed in the corners of the room. These are upholstered in blonde leather to match the mahogany.
A large mirror, which reaches the entire length of the fountain, stands behind the fountain itself, which stretches across the north side of the sub-basement.
Hitch-Hiker Claims Fastest Ride on Record
Boston, Sept. 19—(UP)—A young fellow here thinks he thumbed the fastest ride on record.
He was standing on the Southern Artery one afternoon when Dana Fitzgerald, a radio announcer, spied him
"Where are you going?" asked Fitzgerald, stopping his car.
"Hyannis," replied the youth, "But it looks as though I won't make it tonight. Been waiting at this corner for almost an hour."
"Hop in," said Fitzgerald. The youth did so.
Fitzgerald sped across Nepsonst Bridge to nearby Dennison Airport. His private plane was waiting for him, and he told the pop-eyed hitch-hiker:
"Get in and we'll be at the Hyannis Airport before 5 o'clock."

In a fire department rowboat they got a line across the river. Emergency telephones were rigged up at strategic locations.

Then came a driving rain to make the task even harder. All night they worked against great odds. By midnight 60 telephones were working. By breakfast time three-fourths of the silenced telephones could speak. That afternoon telephone service was back to normal.

Chance For Prizes at Harvesta
Economics majors and potential auctioneers will have an opportunity to show their talent tomorrow night at the window-guessing contest, a feature of the Harvesta celebration. About $100 in prizes will be given to the winners.
Besides the window guessing contest there will be an auto and implement show, "open house" at Lawrence stores, a style show and vaudeville entertainment.
Sixty-six prizes are being offered by 43 local merchants to the successful guessers. The contest follows the traditional plan which is to look closely at the contents of the prize wintows, then list on special slips estimated total value of the goods displayed. The slips will be collected and compared to the known value of the merchandise. Prizes go to those who guess closest to the correct total. The guessing game starts at 7:30 o'clock and closes at 10 o'clock. The winners will be announced the next day.
The auto and implement show will be held on Massachusetts street between Eighth and Ninth streets.
The special fall style show and vaudeville entertainment will be held at the National Guard Armory.

If the Horse Is There It's Called Equitation
-
It's probably known more commonly as just plain "horseback riding", because many calls were received by the Physical Education office this week asking why "horseback riding" was not being given this semester. Call it what you like, it is being presented.
Equitation in all classes from elementary to advance training are listed in the class schedule under the department of physical education as numbers 47a, 47b, and 47c. Classes in elementary training in "straddling" a horse are given at 2:30 on Monday and Wednesday, and at 3:30 Tuesday and Thursday; the intermediate course will be given at 3:30 Monday and Wednesday; and the advanced course, for those who are finally able to stay on a horse, will
be given at 2:30 on Tuesday and Thursday.
Instruction in these classes is being given by E. B. DeGroot and S. D. Mott, owner of the stable of horses used in these classes. Included in these courses of equitation this year will be one overnight trip and a horseshow.
If you were one who thought that "horseback riding" was not being given this semester, and are still desirous of learning the art of equitation", you may still enroll in these classes Saturday without penalty.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS FRIDAY, SEPT. 20, 1940
NUMBER 5
R. O.T.C. Unit Has Record Enrollment of 706
Enrollment in courses of the department of military sciences has reached 706, which is an increase of 244 over the previous record enrollment of last year, it was announced today by Col. E. D. Baldwin, commandant of the department.
With another day yet to change enrollment, Colonel Baldwin estimated that possibly the final number would reach 720.
With the large increase in students, there resulted a shortage of rifles and uniforms. Orders have now been sent for 200 more rifles and approximately 80 new uniforms. With the uniforms on hand the de-

partment was able to completely
equip only 553 of those enlisted.
Scheduled to take the freshman course in the training are 420 students, an increase of 240 over last year. There are approximately 150 sophomores, 80 juniors, and 50 seniors.
To be included for the first time this year will be voluntary drill,

which Colonel Baldwin said would probably be held on Saturday or Monday. The purpose of this drill will be to give more experience in command to the advance students, and practice in drill to new students.
Although the enrollment has reached this new high, Colonel
Baldwin expressed concern that the mobilization of the Kansas National Guard would possibly take 30 or 40 men from R.O.T.C. ranks.
The University R.O.T.C. unit will be made up of 20 platoons. Tentative organization of this unit will be completed Wednesday, said Colonel Baldwin.
Hoch Draws 3,000
Nazis Score England for Unfair Attack
BY FRED9RICK C. CECHSNER United Press Staff Correspondent
Berlin, Sept. 20.—(UP)—News papers reached new highs today in denouncing Great Britain for bombing "non-military objectives" in Germany.
Centering their blasts on the bombing of a children's hospital at Bielfeld, the newspapers used such headlines as "Consciously Murdered Children." "New Royal Air Force Crime Ordered By Churchill," and "Murder-Contemptible Murder."
- The official news agency, referring to British leaders and their followers said:
"Today German arms are striking until the wind is driven out of this pack, a rotten incompetent unworthy pack of Churchill, Eden or whatever their names are. . we know what they are doing. The dizzy fury of these degenerate creatures does not frighten us. The German sword will smite off the head of this gang bea woman has addressed the opening convocation.

Japanese Make Military Demands On Indo-China
BY JOHN R. MORRIS
BY JOHN R. MORRIS
United Press Staff Correspondent
Shanghai, Sept. 20.—(UP)—Japan has presented to Indo-China an ultimatum, expiring Sunday night, which demands drastic concessions, it was said authoritatively today.
It was believed here that the demands included permanent airplane and naval bases in Indo-China, a matter which would be of the greatest importance to the United States and Great Britain.
Some diplomatic quarters expressed belief that a Japanese mission to Indo-China had made demands for passage of troops across the French colony to China merely as a subterfuge behind which they had planned all along to demand permanent bases in Indo-China, dominating the Far Eastern ship route and valuable strategically in relation to Hong Kong, Singapore, the Netherlandsj East Indies and the Philippines.
A dispatch from Hanoi reported that Japanese officials had begun this morning to evacuate their citizens.
Malott, Reigart Stress Duty Of Universities
War, world conditions, and danger to democracy became the center of attention this morning in the seventy-fifth opening convocation in Hoch auditorium which was attended by 3,000 students, faculty members, and guests.
Chancellor Deane Malott and Mrs. Elizabeth Reigert of the Board of Regents were the speakers, and both dealt with war and the world. It was the first time $ ^{4} $
The faculty attended in a group and was seated on the stage.
Mrs. Reigart spoke sternly and deliberately from a prepared text. She opened her speech with a challenge to the youth of the University and America to prove its worth in taking over the reigns of American government in the next few years. Revise Objectives
In connection with modern education, she stated: "In the light of the present world, education has a new meaning. The objectives are new. The world today, even with its advantages found in the last 30 years, can't have peace and finds itself in chaos. Our objectives must be revised to fit the world today
and to fit the job of rebuilding the world anew after the present wars end."
In warning against the dangers of sabotage, she said: "Some factors that caused the fall of so many of the countries of Europe are existing
right now in our own country." Here she quoted from Kipling's "Recessional" in urging Americans not to become drunk with power.
(Editor's Note: See text of Chancellor Malott's speech on page seven.)
"America will emerge only if its people take stock, decide what they want, and decide how to secure it," she added.

U.S.May Be Involved In Eastern War As Japan Warns Indo-China
BY JOE ALEX MORRIS
United Press Foreign News Editor Europe's war threatened major Far Eastern repercussions—involving the United States—for the first time today as Japan was reported to have delivered an ultimatum on French Indo-China coincident with renewal of mass German daylight attacks on Great Britain.
The German High Command for the first time admitted the loss of more German planes yesterday than British claimed shot down. The figures, however, were insignificant. Three German planes were lost to one British plane, it was said.
What the reaction of the Vichy government of France would be to the new developments was not known. A possible indication was seen in the statement yesterday of Foreign Minister Paul Baudouin that France had been forced to yield in the Far East because of failure of the United States to back up the French position with force. Air Battle Over Britain
The ultimatum was said to have been delivered after French officials had reached virtual agreement on previous but less far-reaching demands.
In Europe the battle of Britain again had become a daylight clash
of masses of British and German planes. The weather was reported good from the English channel and by mid-day more than 200 raiders had crossed over to Britain, some flying from the direction of Belgium.
British bombings of Sidi Barrani, Sollum, Tobruk, Derna, and Bomba were admitted.
Conferences on axis matters continued at Rome where Benito Mussolini scheduled a second conference with Joachim von Ribbentrop, German foreign minister. It was said that in addition to Balkan and Mediterranean matters "military matters connected with the common
The Italian press hinted that the discussions concerned the "new order in Europe," and mention of such countries as Turkey, Greece, Jugoslavia and Albania in newspaper articles was held to be of possible significance.

Ultimatum to Indo-China
The French Indo-China situation moved toward a critical stage with reports that Japan was prepared to face "a major crisis" with the United States.
Japan, according to reports reaching Shanghai, has set a time-

'Dependents May Not Help Married Men
Washington, Sept. 20—(UP)—Administration plans for blanket exemption of married men from conscription during peacetime hit a snag today with discovery of a provision in the law which may send some of them to army camps.
Discovery of the clause by selective service committee lawyers caused a revision of the proof sheets of regulations which President Roosevelt will issue when he signs the executive order giving the regulations the force of law.
The provision is among the definitions in the law and reads: "The term 'dependent' when used with respect to a person registered under the provisions of this act includes only an individual (1) who is dependent in fact on such person for support in a reasonable manner, and (2) whose support in such manner depends on income earned by such person in a business, occupation, or employment."
The definition of a dependent was formulated under plans for a draft law to be used in war time. But in this draft, because of the disruption of homes and family life even where the wife is not financially dependent on the husband's weekly pay envelope, it had been planned to defer all married men automatically.
First plans for registration had provided only for men between 21 and 31 years of age, or a total of 12,000,000. The increase in the age span to 21 to 35 by Congress resulted in new orders by Lieut. Col Lewis B. Hershey, chairman of the joint board, to all state adjunct generals directing them to enlarge registration day personnel. No increase is planned in the number of draft boards which were set up at one for every 30,000 of population.
Officials revealed that registration officials will have no easy task. They will register eligibles from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. and then be locked up until all cards have been sorted and numbered. The precaution is being taken.

Why College Gals Get Gray
Expert Gives Hosiery Tips
Elizabeth M. Lippard, instructor in clothing extension at the Pennsylvania State College, says that women's hosiery bills can be kept down by wise buying and good care.
State College, Pa.—(UP)—This advice from an expert may be appreciated by harassed coeds.
Miss Lippard advised women to buy two-thread weight only for evening; three-thread or even heavier for daytime wear.
"To select your correct foot size," she said, "stand on a ruler, measure from heel to toe, and add three quarters of an inch to this measurement." This is necessary because the toe of the stocking should extend half an inch beyond the foot, Miss Lippard believes.
Be sure that the hose is long enough—30 inches is average; short women may wear 26 to 28-inch lengths; tall women, 33 to 35 inches. When you pull the length of the stocking and foot gently, it should have an easy stretch of several inches and should spring back into place. Naturally, full-fashioned stock
Naturally, full-fashioned stockings fit best.
"Ask about twis' when buying hosiery," Miss Lippard suggests. "A crepe or high twist produces a more durable product than a loose or low twist. The high twist resists snags and is more attractive."
Another tip: Since silk deteriorates with age, it is wise to avoid having too many silk hose on hand at one time. Having fewer pairs usually means better care of these few.
"Wash hose in mild lukewarm suds as soon as possible after wearing them," Miss Lippard advised. "Squeeze without twisting or wringing the stockings, and rince in clear warm water until perfectly free of suds. Roll in a towel to remove moisture, and hang away from direct heat to dry."
Hose may wear out for any of these reasons; wrong size hose or shoes, rough shoe linings or sandal straps, rough fingernails or toenails, rings, rough furniture, putting on hose improperly by pulling too hard, or improper care.
Alpha Chi Omega will be unable to hold open house tonight because of the death of Miss Persis Cook, their alumna adviser. A later date for the open house will be announced.
The Baptist church invites students to attend an informal mixer starting at 8:30 tonight. A program of music and readings has been planned with Loren Withers, fa'40, in charge of arrangements.
Open house will also be held by the Congregational church tonight in the parish house. Games and dancing will be featured. Both new and old students who attend the Congregational church are invited to attend.
★★
The Trinity Episcopal church invites students to attend an informal evening of entertainment, including bingo and dancing. The church will be open from 9 to 12 p.m., and the Rev. John E. Bowers will be host for the evening.

Coach Gwinn Henry was engrossed today in putting the finishing touches on his Jayhawk varsity football men preparatory to turning them loose against each other in the regular scrimmage under game conditions which is scheduled for 3:30 tomorrow afternoon.
The Kansas tutor is reserving his decision on the opposing lineups until game time but since the main purpose of tomorrow's scrimmage is to enable as many Jayhawks as possible to acquire
Bill Hargiss Issues Call For Trackmen
All men in the University who have done anything in high school track or are interested in track are requested by Coach "Bill" Hargiss to attend a meeting in Robinson gymnasium Tuesday evening at 7:30.
Hargiss has planned an expanded track program this fall and hopes to have a large squad out for practice. Two meets will be held this fall, according to the Jayhawk coach.
A novice meet, in which men who have not previously been out for freshman or varsity track will compete, is scheduled for the middle of October. In this meet, the longer races will not be run.
This will be followed by a meet for everyone who is out, which will be held around the first of November.
Bulletin
Dr. E. R. Elbel, director of University intramurals, this morning repeated his request of yesterday that all students not living in organized houses come to Robinson gymnasium and enter in intramural competition. Elbel also announced that all boarding houses with four or more boys would be contacted for intramural competition.

man Coach Wayne Replogle and began inserting them into the fray.
Jake Fry, 160 pound seat halfback, put in a busy afternoon snaring passes from the arms of Harlan Altman, Ed Suagee, Marvin Vandaveer, and Dick Miller. The varsity forward wall continued to show improvement with W. F. Jack, 218 pound tackle, and guards Jay Kern and Quido Massare among the standouts. However, several frosh linemen stayed in there throughout the afternoon and showed Coach Henry that they must be considered when he gets around to making out his varsity lineup a year from now.
Sooners To Be Big, Green
By BOB TRUMP The Kansan's Sports Editor
(This is the first in a series of roundup stories dealing with the prospects of teams on the Jayhawks' 1940 grid schedule. Kansas will play Oklahoma at Lawrence on November 9. Last fall, the Sooners defeated the Jayhawks at Norman 27 to 7. Oklahoma finished the Big Six season last year in undisputed possession of third place.)
If you were a Big Six coach about to enter the conference race minus the services of two All-American linemen, four All-Conference stars, and two athletes who participated in the East-West game at San Francisco last New Year's Day, to say nothing of 13 other lettermen from a team which only finished third last year, would you be inclined to agree with the sports scribes who pick your
eleven to gain the runner-up spot this fall?
And yet that is exactly the position in which Indian Tom Stidham, director of the Oklahoma gridiron
destinies, finds himself. Despite the loss of nine members of his starting lineup and nearly two full teams of lettermen, Stidham refuses to take issue with the experts and is quietly going

But all is not darkness and disappointment at Norman. Admittedly, the Sooner squad is green. Admittedly, also, it is one of the toughest and heaviest which Stidham has ever had the opportunity of coaching. As soon as the Oklahoma rookies have a few games under their belts, they'll begin collecting scalps in the manner of many another Stidham team.

Mathews, two husky juniors who should play a lot of halfback for Oklahoma during the next two years. Jacobs, the 185-pound Creek Indian, with the benefit of experience from last year's campaign should develop into one of the best backs in the conference this fall. Mathews, who weighs only 162 pounds, can be counted upon to thrill the Sooner fans with his broken field running.

Bob Seymour at fullback. Rounding out the starting backfield probably will be Gus Kitchens, 177-pound corner. Marvin Whited, 190-pound halfback, is the only other experienced ball carrier, but Stidham has eight husky sophomores who'll be trying to edge their way into the first string lineup.
Bill Jennings, a 180-pounder who played halfback in his first two years at Oklahoma, will be shifted to end this season. Lyle Smith, 195 pounds, and Louis Sharpe, 205 pounds, last year's substitute wingmen, should be ready for varsity competition this fall. Two junior lettermen, Roger Eason, 210 pounds, and Howard Teeter, 225 pounds, are slated to start at tackle. Six sophomores, none of whom weigh less than 195 pounds, will make the Sooner line all the tougher as soon as they have acquired needed experience.
Taking the place of Stevenson and Manley at guards will be Harold Lahar, 214-pound senior letterman, and Ralph Harris, 235-pound junior letter-winner. Other veteran guards
include Olin Keith and Chad Vallance. Clifton Speeagle. 180-pound regular center on last year's team, will handle the pivot post again this season. He will be assisted by Novel Wood, a senior letterman, and Clare Morford, a promising sophomore.
A final reason for selecting the Sooners to finish in second place behind Nebraska is the kindness of the schedule-makers. Oklahoma has the advantage of playing host in Norman to the only conference teams likely to beat them—Nebraska and Missouri. Stidham's warriors will also tangle with Kansas State at Norman

The Kansan Comments -- EDITORIALS LETTERS PATTER
The War Comes Home
America's huge defense program was brought more closely home yesterday when the war department ordered out the 35th Division, comprising National Guard troops in Kansas Missouri, Nebraska and Arkansas, for a year's active duty. The citizen soldiers, among whom are a number of University students, will be mobilized at Camp Robinson, Ark., Nov. 25 The call came only two days after the first transference of more than 60,500 National Guardsmen in 26 states from state to federal service.
Induction of the National Guard into the federal service constitutes the nation's first mass mobilization of her land power since 1917. The conscription bill, also a precedent-shatteref, provides the first peace-time draft in the history of the United States. Historic days these past several weeks. But no more historic than the past twelve months, which witnessed the fall of nations which were as free—and as unprepared—as this country.
To the average person, particularly those of this generation to whom World War I was only a conflagration of nations their parents witnessed, events of the past few weeks have moved with almost bewildering rapidity. Unprecedented legislation, the National Guard bill and the Selective Service Training Act, were passed by Congress, only a matter of days separating the two.

Shining Star
Sixty years ago, on September 18, a small. four-page newspaper first appeared in Kansas City. Its competitors dubbed it The Twilight Twinkler, for William Rockhill Nelson, its founder, had named it the Star. Kansas City then was a raw western town, and Nelson was a newcomer.
Today, the Kansas City Star is eminent among the great dailies of the world, and Kansas City is a foremost American metropolis. Much of the credit for building both rightly goes to Nelson; he led crusade after crusade to clean up and build up the Kansas City area.
He coached his staff to produce an independent, honest and aggressive newspaper. Throughout the yellow journalism period, when hundreds of newspaper publishers seemed to lose their balance in the wave of sensationalism, Nelson and his staff kept the Star on an even keel.
After Nelson died in 1915, there were those who predicted the Star would dim—that the Star had been Nelson, and nothing more. For 25 years, however, the institution the man built has lived after him, reflecting his enterprise, his courage, and his honesty—but not as in a stagnant pool.
That the Star continues to be one of the bestknown and most distinctive dailies in America is a credit to those dozens of anonymous editorial and business workers who make the Star. They keep the Star bright.

Transition Period
For several years now student counsellors have helped wipe out a freshman difficulty: the transition from high school to University, from boys into men and from girls into women. It is their duty to get freshmen acquainted with the
University, with the teachers and with each other. It is also their duty to plan meetings, parties, and get-togethers that serve this purpose but yet are not dull.
In the summer men counsellors each write introductory letters to 12 new students, women counsellors to six new women. More than one letter is written to the freshman. The real work begins in the fall when arrangements are made for each student to meet his counsellor. From then on through the year the counsellor keeps in touch with his proteges, helping them in any way he can. The outstanding students chosen to be counsellors are usually qualified to do this. For their unselfish donation of time and energy these upperclassmen deserve the gratitude of the University.
Democratic party members are requesting free radio time for President Roosevelt's answer to Willkie's Coffeyville speech. If the rebuttal is worth hearing, it should be worth paying for.

Facts in Review, the organ of the German Library of Information, states that an English laborer was fined for betting that "Adolph Hitler would be in London by September" and for listening to foreign news broadcasts. The pamphlet neglects to say that the same conduct in the Reich would mean more severe punishment and possibly a concentration camp.

ROCK CHALK TALK
By Reginald Buxton
A Friend Dies
We don't know a lot about Miss Persis Cook. We do know that she was Mr. Werner's secretary; that she was an alumnus of Alpha Chi Omega; and that she died yesterday morning.
There is something else that we know about Miss Cook, however. She was the first person we met as a reporting I student whom we immediately liked—immensely. About two years ago we arrived in Mr. Werner's office, coming from a professor who didn't like us because the Kansan had once (or twice) spelled his name wrong—either that or because our hair was dirty. We were told that he had right to be alive we rated her A-1. When she searched around to find a little news—notices, squibs, etc., all which was manna to a reporter who needed inches for a grade—we liked her even more.
The point of it all is that Miss Cook was entirely different from any University secretary we've ever known. She was full of fun and still efficient; she was human and still a secretary of excellent caliber. She was devoted to the University and the students. That isn't pious pap; we know we were supposed to news every day for one semester and we missed few opportunities to drop in the basement office whenever we had an opportunity and excuse.
That Man Gibson
Ultimate of assiminity: Wearing a Willkie button to Hilden Gibson's Political Parties. One dope did just that yesterday and sat on the front row with an ever-reddening fact as the puckish witted prof poked fun at the GOParty candidate. Half way through the hour the Willkiette palmed the button.
Biased as we are there's no getting around the fact that Williek is bogging down and unless the Hoosier starts "cooking with gas" instead of electricity soon he'll be lucky to get the dry vote in Kansas. Spoiling for a fight he lost his usual quickness when he ordered "To hell with Chicago." That's really slow! According to the Willkie Belt concensus, Chicago's seen in hell ever since Mrs. O'Leary stroked her cow daisy the wrong way.
Note to Miss Mumford
According to Emily Mumford, the Joinal Woldl's journalism femme fatale, a "newspaper popular on the Campus" forgot to print the Chancellor's greetings in its first edition last Friday. The item needs two corrections: first, the word "popular" needs some qualifications, not much, but some; second, the Campus newspaper did not forget to print the greeting inasmuch as it did not receive it until after the Friday's form were locked up in the afternoon.
When local National Guard units are called to active duty on Nov. 25 for a year's training at Camp Robinson, Ark., about 45 students who were enrolled last year and belonged to the local National Guard units will be called into action, it was indicated today.
Several To Answer National Guard Call
-
As far as is known most of these students have not re-enrolled in the University this semester.
Among those to be called from the campus this fall are Schiller Shore, Bureau of Printing employee, and Donald Dowers, draftsman, in the Geological Survey office. Both men belong to the Thirty-Fifth division, Shore being affiliated with Company M-131st infantry-machine gun and Dowers with Troop I of the 14th cavalry soon to be changed to the 155th motorized battery.
Kenneth Postlethwaite, c'40, has been transferred from the Thirty-
Fifth division and is now located in Wyoming.
Slayer of K.U. Grad Gets Life Sentence

Text of Malott's Speech
OPENING CONVOCATION
Last year in addressing the incoming freshman class the Dean of the College compared the freedom of American young men and women to the condition of those of the same age in the countries of Europe and of Asia who were not being regimented, who were being drilled and killed in wars for which they individually were not to blame.
Now, as we face another academic year, we still have cause to draw an enviable comparison with a lmost every nation on the globe. But times have changed enormously from those we faced just a year ago this week. The War has become more grim; its dark shadow clouds our thoughts of our actions affects everybody of our lives. This brought increased instability, an increased feeling of insecurity, and for many a changing point of view, as we realize the inevitable necessity of preparedness. It emphasizes anew the appalling swiftness of change in this modern day.
Winston Churchill, Prime Minister of Great Britain, closes his fascinating biography of youth and early manhood by saying "Scarcely anything that I was brought up to believe was permanent and vital has lasted. Everything I was taught to believe impossible has happened."
That statement is a direct challenge to education, and might well serve as a guidepost to you in your own thinking. Educational institutions—students and faculty alike—cannot survive in a cloistered world apart, teaching as eternal virtues that are transient to outward touching and to an old-fashioned pattern of formal education. Tragic blunders are not confined to military or political strategists. We who call ourselves educated men and women will commit equally dangerous blunders unless we can prepare ourselves and others to live in the world of the 1940's and the 1950's and the 1960's—and beyond. We must not only recognize the trends, as our lives are speeded up and changed by new conditions, but we must be able to evaluate trends, to appraise the effect of new conditions. For trends can be studied just as systematically and objectively as any chemical can be. For instance, administrative law receives added attention in the law school because of changes in cedules and schools of government. A recent enumeration gives fifty-one new Federal agencies with judicial powers. The study of busi-
new becomes more than applied economics because of the businessman's enlarged responsibilities under our system of modern mass production. Economic illiteracy has many manifestations in the prevailing notions about money, gold, silver, credit, government expenditures, social security, the relation of government to business, liberalism, economic planning, and other current hallucinations.
The school of education grapples anew with its age-old problems as new techniques are sought to cope with a world where simple facts have a confusing way of coming suddenly not to be facts at all. There are new frontiers in engineering and medicine. The faculty of one school in the University is undertaking a serious and detailed reappraisal of its entire course structurq—content, coverage, prerequisites and all. I hope every school in the University will undertake just such a study during the coming year. For only thus can we assure ourselves of offering the maximum benefit to you who are students here. Life is fortuitous at best, but as Pasteur once said, "Chance favors the mind that is prepared." And in this University, with 60 separate departments and a full-time faculty of 280, adequate preparation is available to you all.
As a nation we are engaged in a momentous program of national defense. Whereas a year ago a significant proportion of our people sincerely felt an economic waste futility, if not a danger in concentration on matter is preparedness—today the situation is substantially united in the view that preparation is the vital concern of us all. Ways and means are subject to debate, but of the objectives there is near unanimity.
There has come to be the feeling that democracy—our democratic system of government with all its free alternatives—is fighting for its life.
Whether this is so or not as an explanation for the complex economic, social, racial, and political factors which have produced the War, certain it is that democracy has been lost to a large segment of the world today. It is high time that this nation rallied around the fundamental tenets of our way of Ivling. But national unity is more than military preparedness. Democracy cannot survive by the creation of a vast military machine. Pre-aredness for the swift events of today involves economic and spiritual preparedness as well. Men and women trained in pre-aredness numbers because modern war is a war of chemistry, metallurgy, engineering, and other techniques. But it is necessary as well that we understand the taxation and financial implications, the trade dislocations, industrial procurement and industrial mobilization problems. We must understand the social problems incident to war inflammation.
Dr. Hu Shih, Chinese Ambassador to the United States, recently wrote that "the greatest fallacy of man is to imagine that social and political problems are so simple and easy that they do not require the rigid disobedience method, that they can be judged and solved by rule of thumb."
We must understand that the inevitable end of war brings economic and political adjustments in which all must share equitably if peace is to be lasting. We must finally put the nation's welfare above personal expediency and convenience, else the breakdown from within may be more devastating than war itself. In a these efforts University has a vital students—has a vital role. The liberal arts, the fine arts, and the professions are in reality a training for emergencies. They give you values, rather than certainties. They teach resourcefulness, not routine procedures.
Democracy after all is peculiarly in our care. We in the colleges and universities, we who call ourselves educated, must, each for himself, find a meaning for democracy. After all democracy is not a natural way of life; it has developed by the unending struggle of idealistic minds over inherited brute force. It is not transient; it cannot be bestowed, but must be acquired by understanding and conviction and endless self-directed effort in application, even at the cost of self-sacrifice.
The pages of history, written as well as unwritten, are crowded with failures of democracy when attempts have been made to force it upon those who failed to comprehend its fundamental meanings. One hundred and sixty-four years ago democracy as we established in this our country in a simple society, where our citizenry, individual by individual, had thought out for himself a way of life and was willing to pay the price for it.
A great danger today is that millions of our citizens, each a voter, do not and will not think for themselves, but follow the panaceas of propaganda and whose mental effort is listening to the radio. We must rally around the objective of national unity, not blindly like rats in a cage, nor yet under the glow of a falsely sentimental patriotism which precludes free speech and open discussion. In our country, we want our leaders to follow our intelligent will; if the opposite process is invoked we no longer have democracy at all.

Tragedy, more intimate and infinitely more personal came to us with sudden finality in the death of Cancellor Lindley, gracious and scholarly head of the University for nearly twenty years. His classes in history have started yesterday affording him stimulation of his broad experience, his keen and kindly philosophy. His courage in standing firm for a free and uncontrolled University brought forth the admiration of Kansas, and

Hoch Draws--friends, each found in the other the same forthright qualities, the same devotion to the interests of this University. It was more than a friendly, advisory interest. They were fighting men, aggressive in their belief that Kansas could and should have strong, free, and vital institutions of higher learning. They worked for this objective with full strength and power. Their positions can be filled; cannot be replaced. I record also with keen regret the death of Miss Rosemary Ketcham, for nineteen years a member of this faculty, and head of the department of design.
The dangers of becoming lax in safeguarding Americanism were discussed when the speaker asserted: "We have had livery so long at no cost that it is hard to realize that even keeping it has its price, which is eternal vigilance."
"Every citizen must take part in government. No longer can we 'let George do it'."
Mrs. Reigart concluded her speech of less than half an hour by hurling challenges to her audience, composed almost entirely of youths. She warned them not to believe the weak-hearted persons and cynics who say that democracy has failed. "It is you who in the next few years will determine the fate of America," she said. "If we fail now, man will never again enjoy the advantages of a democracy such as we here in America know it right now."
Urges Modernization
Chancellor Malott spoke briefly from a prepared text to conclude the convocation. He urged the students and the faculty to fit themselves to the rapidly changing world. He even requested that the schools and departments take inventory of their courses and then change or add to keep K.U. abreast of the current times.
In comparing America to the rest of the world he said, "Now, as we face another academic year, we still have cause to draw an enviable comparison with almost every nation on the globe. But times have changed enormously from those we faced just a year ago this week. . . we realize the inevitable necessity of preparedness."
Concerning preparedness, he said: "Educational institutions cannot survive in a cloistered world apart, teaching as eternal verities things that are transient, clinging to outmoded thoughts and to an old-fashioned pattern of formal education."
In conclusion the Chancellor paid tribute to Chancellor - Emeritus Lindley who died last month, and announced that special memorial services will be held in October. He also paid tribute to two members of the Board of Regents, Ralph T. O'Neil and Dr. Howard L. Snyder, who died during the summer, and Miss Rosemary Ketcham, head of the department of design, who also died this summer.

Royal Air Force Alone Defends English Channel
By United Press
Weather conditions along the English Channel were perfect Saturday night for Adolph Hitler's long-promised, but thus-far-deferred attempt to invade Great Britain.
deferred attempt to invade Great Britain The surface of what the British call "Our Moat" was glassy smooth and all that stood between the German legions and a successful landing on England's.
shores were the British.
And the British were striking tremendous blows against the bases from which a German invasion would be launched.
A feeling very near to optimism was evident in London, where official spokesmen said, "The tide is turning, and reported that the Royal Air Force was "Destroying Hitler's power to wage war."
But the RAF, powerful as were its smashing attacks against invasion ports and vital rail communications, munition, oil and air centers, had not destroyed Hitler's power to bomb and keep on bombing London. As dawn rose on this Sabbeth morning Londoners were still facing almost constant bombing.
A Cappella Choir To Sing for Credit
---
For the first time scholastic credit is being given students for singing in the University A Cappella choir. The choir is now being formed under the direction of Dean D. M. Swarthout. Another innovation is to have the choir composed entirely of University persons.
The choir will probably enroll from 70 to 80 voices. Interested persons may make a try-out appointment by seeing Dean Swarthout. Try-outs are being held from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. daily in the studio of Dean Swarthout in Frank Strong hall.
The singers will have many concert appearances on University programs and are anticipating several over the state. For the past two years the choir has appeared with the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra at Music hall in Kansas City as well as appearing in concerts in several nearby cities.
The choir will have its first meeting at 4:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon in room 32 of Frank Strong hall.
During 'the Music Festival last May, the choir gave a brilliant performance of the "Magnificat" by Bach. a work of nearly an hour in length, given with soloists and the University Symphony orchestra.

K. C. Mon., Sept. 21, (UP)—The Twelfth Century Church at St. Quentin was untouched by this war but was still undergoing repairs from the destruction of the World War. The Cathedral of St Denis, in which are tombs of the kings of France and Marien Antoinette, was sand-bagged and undamaged.
Union Is Result Of Student Meeting 20 Years Ago
Few of those students who flocked to the fountain of the Memorial Union building at convocation Friday morning realize that that building is a result of a convocation held 20 years ago in Robinson gymnasium.
Patriotic feeling ran high as students drifted back to the University following the World War. As a result of that feeling an all-University convocation was held in Robinson gymnasium for the purpose of finding a way to raise money to build a union building and a stadium to be dedicated to the 129 K.U. dead who lost their lives in the war.
Squadrons of students were posted on all parts of the campus to prevent anyone from leaving the Hill. This accounted for the large crowd who applauded speeches by Dr. F. C. Allen, Chancellor E. H. Lindley, and student leaders who proposed the "Million Dollar Memorial Drive." Following the convocation, teams were organized to canvass for signatures on pledges of money to pay for the building.
The 400 workers gave prizes for slogans and tags for those who signed.
Dramatic Club Tryouts to 75
Dramatic club tryouts were given to 75 aspirants Thursday and Friday in the Little Theatre in basement of Green Hall. These tryouts will be continued Monday, it was reported from the department of speech and dramatic art yesterday. It is expected that the total number of tryouts will be approximately 100.
Judges for the tryouts are Allen Crafton, professor of speech and dramatic art; Robert Calderwood, associate professor of speech and dramatic art; James Barton, and Donald Dixon, instructor and assistant instructor respectively in the department, and officers of the Dramatic club.
"We expect to have tryouts on our first play in about a week", said Professor Crafton. "This play will probably be 'Beggar on Horseback', a Kauffman comedy that was presented at the University about 3 years ago."
Enrollment Drops Nearly 300
A decrease in enrollment of 268 was evident at noon yesterday with a total enrollment of 4,345 students as compared with last year's Saturday noon total of 4,613, which was an all-time record.
The total figure includes the record of 263 enrolled in the School of Medicine in Kansas City, Kan., with registration there still incomplete
Services for Miss Cook Yesterday
Funeral services for Miss Persis B. Cook, former secretary to Henry Werner, adviser to men, were held at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon from the First Methodist church. Rev. Edwin F. Price officiated. Miss Price is the first member of the University staff to die since the death of Miss Rosemary Ketcham last summer.

Students Pack Mixer To Inspect New Union
Approximately 1000 students flocked to the mixer and open house at the Memorial Union building to enjoy three hours of seeing new faces, consuming free refreshments, and dancing to the music of Clayton Harbur's orchestra last night. The open house and mixer were sponsored by the Student Union Activities committee.
Starting at 8 o'clock, students began to wander in to consume free refreshments and to inspect the new additions to the building. Constantly crowded throughout the evening was
the new fountain that opened last Monday. Also inspected thoroughly by student mixers were the new office rooms and recreation room in the basement. Although not recent additions, the Kansas, Old English, and Music rooms were frequently visited both by new and old students.

Freshman Frolic tickets will go on sale tomorrow morning, it was announced today by Fred Litttoy, dance manager. Advance price on tickets for the dance, to be held Oct. 11 in the Memorial Union building featuring Tommy Dorsey's orchestra, will be $2. The limit on ticket sales will be 700, and no passes will be issued for this dance, Litttoy said.
Students will be able to purchase the admittance cards at Bell's Music store, the College business office, or at the desk in the Memorial Union building. It is necessary that students buy their tickets early to be sure of attending this dance, cautioned Littioy.
The dance began at 9 o'clock and the crowd crowded into the ballroom to dance to the music of the Hill's newest band, Clayton Harbur's organization. Of especial enjoyment to many students were the signal tones, borrowed from a recent motion picture, played at the end of each set of dances. The Harbur band is made up of musicians from the former Clyde Smith and Dale Brodie outfits, which broke up this summer because of failure to secure vacation engagements.

Well known currently popular recordings by the band are: "So What," "T'll Never Smile Again," "Easy Does It," and the theme number "I'm Getting Sentimental." Tommy is identified as the "Sentimental Gentleman of Swing," but this does not indicate that his band does not play good fast numbers.
Littooy gave the assurance that with this limit of only 700 tickets to be sold, there would be plenty of room to dance in the ballroom. There is no possibility that the dance will be changed to Hoch auditorium, said the dance manager.
White Cloud, Kans., Sept. 21— (UP)—Louis White Cloud, a great grandson of Joseph Ribidoux, founder of St. Joseph, was formally installed as chief of the Iowa Indians at a ceremony which started yesterday and will last three days.
Local Mentors To Slant Year's Outlook For C. of C.
A slant on the season's prospects will be given by the football coaches of Lawrence high school, the University and Haskell at the first fall meeting of the Chamber of Commerce at 12:30 o'clock Tuesday in Hotel Eldridge. Chi Galloway, chairman of the sports committee, will be in charge.
It is expected that late enrollment will swell the figure past last year's total of 268 in the School of Medicine.
The enrollment by schools will be made public next week after a final check by the registrar's office.
A decrease of five in the Kansas State enrollment was apparent with the annour cement of the total enrollment figure of 4,054 compared with last year's figure of 4,059.
According to officials at the University of Missouri enrollment figures are expected to go far above last year's all-time record of 5,576. The present enrollment of 5,473 is an increase of 136 at the same time last year.
The University library will be open today from 2 to 5 p.m. For the rest of the semester the same regulations will be in force, C.M. Baker, director of libraries, said yesterday.
Men's Faculty Club To Open With Tea
The University Men's Faculty club will officially open with a tea at 4 to 7 o'clock tomorrow afternoon in their new rooms in the Memorial Union building.
The officers of the club, Charles B. Holmes, Karl O. Kuersteiner, R. H. Wagstaff, J. D.

Such tidbits as upholstering the maid's room in canary yellow velvet, and having your name—all of it—set in diamonds on a flat gold cigarette case usually make the average person wonder if communism isn't here to stay.

The University Men's Glee club has places for at least 25 more men

The impression of a forward movement and the rock and pitch of a ship in mid-ocean is accomplished by the use of tracks and hydraulic rockers concealed below the water line. Together with the clouds and lighting effects a perfect illusion of reality is created.
Jack Coyle, manager, announced yesterday.
The club plans to make an extensive tour of the western part the state which will include Selina and Garden City and more men are needed to make the trip.
Try-outs will be held at 7:30 o'clock, Tuesday and Wednesday at Prof. Joseph Wilkins studio in Frank Strong hall. Persons whose names begin with letters from A to M inclusive, should report Tuesday, and those from N to Z report Wednesday if possible, Coyle said.

Kansas Impressive In Practice Game
Memorial Stadium rang with the sounds of battle for nearly two hours yesterday afternoon as Jayhawk Coaches Gwinn Henry, Vic Hurt, and Harry Lansing watched their varsity gridsters clash in a practice scrimmage under game conditions. A steady stream of substitutions and the presence of the yard
markers added a realistic touch to the contest although no score was kept.
Early in the course of the afternoon, the beckfield quartet of Marvin Vandaveer, Jake Fry, Don Pollom, and Ed Hall sparkled on the ground and through the air. Several

The hot sun and roughest scrimimage of the young season combined to melt several pounds off the frames of most of Henry's athletes. A few more practice games like yesterday's should put the Jayhawks in top form for their approaching battle with Iowa State on Oct. 5.

The Sea Hawk
MARQUES SAN MIGUEL
There were no long range cannon, submarines or mines in the 16th century. An attack ship got near enough to its prospective victim to throw grappling irons over the side, and board.
Rife with dramatic incidents that revolve about pirate galleons, their sails fullbellied in the wind, galley slaves and a plentiful use of the blunderbuss and sword, "The Sea Hawk" is Errol Flynn's newest assignment to cinematic adventure. Flynn is seen as the daring captain of a buccaneer ship engaged in piratical pursuits. Panoplied lavishly which includes two full-sized galleons moored in the Warner Bros. studio lake, "The Sea Hawk" is stirring adventure from the moment of its unfolding on the screen. Featured with Errol Flynn are Brenda Marshall, Claude Rains, Alan Hale, Flora Robson, William Lundigan, Una O'Conner and several thousand others.
The image depicts a scene with two individuals seated in a carriage, possibly indicating a journey or a visit to a destination. The setting appears to be an outdoor area with trees and open space, suggesting a natural environment. The focus of the image is on the people, who are dressed in traditional attire, which includes patterned fabrics and headgear. There are also musical instruments visible, including a drum and a keyboard, suggesting that this location might be a cultural event or a festive occasion.

The Kansan Comments-- EDITORIALS ★ LETTERS ★ PATTER
Practice-Not Theory
"A certain proficiency in the science of government might also be made mandatory for graduation!"
Those words, effectively addressed to the University, including students and faculty, Friday by Mrs. Elizabeth Reigart, suggests a partial remedy for one of the malignant growths on our body politic. Mrs. Reigart wants American students to be instructed in the responsibilities of individuals in a democracy, and she wants them to understand how to fulfill those responsibilities.
Proficiency in the science of government means having skill and workable knowledge in the field of practical politics—not just an academic appreciation of the form of government set up by the constitution framers. It means knowing how to force public servants to do their full public duty; it means assuming the serious duty of juryman although it interferes with business and golf.
America is suffering because too many citizens have been willing to let somebody else do the driving—somebody else trained to steer where he wants to take us—a professional politician who is throwing the clutch, applying the brakes, and stepping on the gas—taking us for a ride, in our own machine, at our own expense.
Having yielded responsibilities and powers to professional politicians, too many persons shun politics as if it always stunk. Too many students in too many colleges, playing with college politics, become cynical and hardened. In the words of Mrs. Reigart, for them "it becomes the smart and shrewd thing to do to get on the 'gravy train.'"
What students and their parents need to learn is that upright, honest, decent, and responsible citizens must engage in politics to make democracy work. Not once in eight years to "clean the rascals out." Not once in four years to elect a man who will do what he promised. The great need is good citizens who have the courage, the patience, and the skill to keep politics out of the hands of the relative few who make politics a business, a game, and a graft. Americans are needed who will get on the inside and make government work-day in and day out; there is no need of Americans who stand on the outside and hold their noses.

Just why Spain should be included in the three-member pact, which includes Germany and Italy, aimed at a division of Africa is difficult to understand, particularly when Gibraltar reportedly has been mentioned as the price of her aid. The pact has all the earmarks of "Said the spider to the fly."

TITTITTTTTTT
YOU SAID IT
Editor. Daily Kansan:
Wants Activity Tickets Transferrable
Now that most of us have become resigned to the fact that we've been elected to pay for the stadium, it seems to me that the Athletic association, which rules the roost so far as the activity ticket is concerned, might possibly make just one concession—just out of the goodness of its heart, if for no other reason.
Students, a large part of them anyway, are not always in Lawrence the Saturdays of home football games; or, if they are, there's a paper that can't be stalled off any longer, some unfinished business at one of the laboratories, or something that conflicts with the game. The average student, granting that any of them are average, goes to most of the games, but at times he is forced to miss at least one of them.
Why, then, can't the activity book be made transferrable? What difference does it make whether John Jones, who purchased the book that the stadium might not be padlocked, is sitting in the stands, or his friend, Tom Rover? Of course, I'm just an undergraduate and I'm not expected to know all the answers; but it happens that the undergrads, not the football teams, are expected to bring water and straw for the white elephant—commonly known as the stadium.
IN A DAZE.

With Mr. Willkie and Mr. Roosevelt riding on the same bandwagon, the general election in November might be settled much more easily if the two flipped a coin.

Seniors Born Four Years Too Soon, Freshman Says
(By a New Student)
Born four years too soon were the seniors, for they thereby cheated themselves out of the thrill of becoming K.U.-pies (freshmen to you), 1940 style.
Those first days (bring your blue card with you . . . auditorium doors close promptly at nine . . . fill out each of the 27 cards, please) will always be standouts in memory.
From the very first we knew that here was LIFE, the real McCoy, dashing and efficient. For instance, we found our dwelling cell complete with radio. $ ^{4} $
roommate, and blue-checked wallpaper designed to limber up the geometric sections of the mind.
Experience Comes Early
Upperclassmen, who were lucky enough to meet us, smirked, offered advice, and pushed us ahead of them to the nearest soda fountain. Our pockets spilled neatly empty as we bombarded jelly joints and nickel-odeons. And those innards of our heads filled frothy with new experiences.
Among our first lessons were how to make a coke last through two rubbers of bridge, how to hold a ham sandwich in one hand and play a second hand low with the other, how to choose recordings from the nickel-odeon list as scientifically as though we had a speaking acquaintance with all composers and band leaders and had often week-ended with Tommy Dorsey.
Big moment number one came when a fellow classman asked us if we were a sophomore. From then on we felt less sheepish about asking advice on courses, professors, "fifteen hours in each of the first three divisions before the junior year." We even dared to admit that we had never seen Glenn Miller.
At convocation we learned we had been consistent in maintaining the old Kansas male-female ration. At the Nibble said ratio was proved when only colossal stamina saved many a lass from being fatally overwhelmed by stags.
So now we are full-fledged Jay-
hawkers. We had been inducted by
a running torch-bearer, like the Statue of Liberty on the warpath. We even know six separate and distinct ways to get down from the Hill. (Maybe next year we can figure out a strictly painless method of getting back up the Hill.)
We suffered those endless lines, listened with interest to the name and location of every town on the Kansas may of 13 or over, and bravely substituted conversation for sleep during the ice-breaking period. We deserve to be treated with respect.
We even enjoyed the first day of school. Professors are fascinating in a musty sort of way. In fact, if any-one should inquire, we like it here. That's that. Now to read the first assignment in that new fourth-hand book. College life—it's wonderful. And there are four years of it to come!
Seniors, don't you wish you were us?
K.U. Entries Win Art Prizes at State Fair
Four University students and several Lawrence residents won prizes in the Kansas State Free Fair in Topeka.

Victor Kalin, fa'42, won first for a still life and an honorable mention. He also placed first on a portrait from life.
Violet LaMont, fa'41, won_second place in a portrait from life, also second on a landscape from nature.

Make T.B. Exams a Must For Faculty
Moving for the safety of the student body, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today that all faculty members and University employees would be required to take an annual tuberculin test.
This regulation is part of the general health program to further the protection of students against tuberculosis. Tests must be taken at Watkins Memorial hospital between the hours of 8 to 12 a.m. and 2 to 6 p.m. Monday to Friday inclusive or from 8 to 12 a.m. on Saturday.
The test consists of a minute skin injection. A slight irritation will be produced if the tests is positive. Positive reaction does not at all necessarily indicate tuberculosis. Those having positive reaction, indicating sensitivity to the tubercle bacilli will be X-rayed as a further check.
Faculty and employees must return to the hospital in two days for observation. No charge will be made for the tuberculin, X-ray, or laboratory tests necessary to establish diagnosis.

Washington, Sept. 25.—(UP) — Hjalmar J. Procope, Finnish minister to the United States, said today that the German-Finnish agreement allowing transit of German troops through Finland "does not imply in any way" that his country has abandoned its policy of neutrality and independence.
State Department officials declined to comment.
Procope said that the legation had received no reports from Helsinki other than news dispatches that Finland has agreed to permit transit of German troops on leave and Geman supplies between northern Finnish territory and northern Norway.
These reports, stating that the transit will be under control measures and precautions, points out the arrangement is like the agreement between Sweden and Germany of last July," Procope said in a formal statement issued early today.
"The arrangement, as reported, does of course not imply in any way a giving up of the policy of neutrality, independence and peace that Finland is following. The Finns, determined to follow this policy, are concentrating every energy in the reconstruction and rehabilitation work to which they have devoted themselves since the March 12th peace treaty with Russia."
A legislation spokesman pointed out that Finland and Russia agreed a few days ago to permit movement of Russian troops to the port of Hango in southwestern Finland which was ceded to Russia at the conclusion of the Russo-Finnish war.
"White Wings" To Be Played
Madrid, Tokyo May Enter War
The department of speech and dramatic art has done a quick reversal—decided not to give the Kaufmann-Connelly show, "Beggar on Horseback," as the season opener in Fraser theater, and instead, the first play will be Phillip Barry's "White Wings," a comedy of several seasons back.
"White Wings" was more than a success on Broadway—it made history. It's whole plot is based on the life and times of those right hand men of every city—the street cleaners, more generally known as "white wings."
Preliminary tryouts for casting the play will begin at 7:30 p.m. Friday at the little theater in the basement of Green hall. The play will be directed by Prof. Allen Crafton, head of the speech department.
May Take Few Draftees
"We were sorry we had to drop 'Beggar on Horseback,'" said Crafton, "but there were too many factors against presenting a play which has been given only three years ago. The novelty and surprises in the play would, we feel, fall flat."
Cards were sent out yesterday from the Dramatic club offices informing 22 students that they have successfully qualified for membership in the club. Nearly a 100 applicants did a stint of pantomine and vocalizing on the little theater stage before the judging committee.
WEATHER
"Despite the rather small number which we took into the club," commented Professor Crafton, "I saw more outstanding and usable material this year than I have ever seen before in these annual try-outs." He also said that a greater number of men had shown ability and were taken into the club this year.
Continued cool weather and clear skies were forecast for Lawrence and eastern Kansas tonight and tomorrow. No immediate change in weather was indicated.
Washington, Sept. 25.—(UP)—Selective service officials expected today that voluntary enlistments after registration day would make it unnecessary to draft many men for the first contingent of 400,000 conscripts.
On the basis of inquiries at headquarters here by men seeking to volunteer, officials believed that the entire 400,000 might be raised by that way before the end of the year. Since the Conviction Act was
Since the Conscription Act was
signed by President Roosevelt, 261 men have visited or telephoned conscription headquarters here to find out how quickly they con enlist for one year of military training. Officers pointed out that although the 261 was a low figure, few persons know the location of their offices here.
apply to local draft boards. Then they may not be accepted if they have dependents or are engaged in essential industries.
Unemployed youths, young doctors and lawyers about to begin private practice, and others about to embark on business careers after completing school predominate among those seeking to enlist. Officials said those persons would rather enlist now than risk interruption of their careers later.
Most inquirers are surprised to learn that they cannot enlist immediately. They must wait until after Oct. 16—registration day—to
Snow Hall Gets Unique Collection Of 'Walking Sticks'
A sight seldom witnessed was seen yesterday in Snow hall. It was a cage of several hundred "walking sticks"—not the kind the senior laws carry but that unusual jointed bug.
This collection was obtained Sunday by Dr. Raymond Beamer, who caught the insects in a woods near Garnett, Kan.
The insect measured eight inches from antennae to posterior of body; the body proper measured five inches.
Up to Snuday the Snow collection contained only five specimens of this insect—now it has several hundred. Among the number there are only four or five females. This, Beamer said, was very unusual and he did not know what the explanation might be.
Beamer said that he would like to start a colony of them here but that he wouldn't want them to become a pest.
Lawson Has Big Speaking Tour
Eleven speeches in three days have been scheduled for Paul B. Lawson, dean of the college of liberal arts and sciences, the last of this week.
Dean Lawson's tour begins Thursday when in the morning he will speak to the high school students of Russell, at noon to the Russell Kiwanis club, to the high school students at Osborne in the afternoon and to a group of K.U. alumni at Beloit in the evening.
An early morning appearance Friday will be made before the Beloit high school and a similar meeting at Jewel just before noon. A third student convocation will be addressed at Smith Center that afternoon.
Dean Lawson will address another group of K.U. alumni at Mankato Friday noon and appear at the high school that afternoon.
His circuit will be completed Saturday with two speeches at Norton, one before the Norton County teachers' association.
Chinese Army Strikes Back

Axis Hints Satellites Are Ready
By JOE ALEX MORRIS United Press News Editor
Adolph Hitler struggled desperately to offset powerful British aerial and naval counter-blows against Germany today by coordinating an unparalleled military, diplomatic and propaganda offensive against the British Empire in Europe, Africa and the Far East.
With the conflict surging closer to United States interests in South America and in the Pacific, Germany and Italy appeared to be attempting to rally Japan and Spain to aid in their assault or at least to give the world the impression that both the Tokyo and Madrid governments were cooperating
In a day of frenzied action on all fronts, these developments stood out: 1. JAPAN was reported to have agreed in principle on a defensive alliance with Germany, to become effective if the United States and Great Britain should collaborate on defense bases, such as Singapore, in the Far East.
The indirect nature of advices concerning this "provisional" agreement left uncertain the extent to which Germany had been able to swing Japan toward such an agreement, but empahsized at least a desire to make the world think that Tokyo and Berlin were cooperating closely. In Berlin, officials said they had no knowledge of the agreement.
Japan Lands Troops
2. JAPAN, seeking to take advantage of every war development to further the "new order" in east Asia, was reported landing troops at the French Indo-China port of Haiphong and fighting French Colonial forces on the northern frontier of Indo-China. Chinese troops were reported counter-attacking the Japanese in the nearby Lungchow area and in Shanghai there were increasing fears that Japan would seize the French concession.
3. IN AFRICA, an expedition of British and free French forces continued their battle to seize the French colonial port of Dakar, where it was estimated that 1,100 had been killed or wounded in three days of severe and almost continuous fighting between airplanes, warships, landing parties and shore batteries. French defenders, including air units,

Mayor Outlaws Horn As Utah Mating Call
Salt Lake City, Utah, Sept. 25—(UP—Salt Lake City's mayor, Ab Jenkins—who recently banned "juke boxes" in beer parlors—is pushing his campaign against noise in another direction.
The mayor poclaimed the unnecessary blowing of automobile horns a misdemeanor.
"The auto horn should be used as a warning—not a love call," said he, professing a firm belief in the old formalities which provided that a dating swain should at least be willing to climb the stairs to his beloved's door.

Movie Stars Have Pet Phobias, Too
Sept. 25 (UP)—Even in superstitions, Hollywood is a city of specialists.
There are few members of the film colony who are completely free from superstitions—but still fewer who don't cherish at least one pet superstition.
A whole squadron of black cats, for instance, might stroll across the paths of Robert Montgomery, Ann Southern, W. C. Fields and Mickey Rooney without disturbing them in the least. However, none of them would think of whistling in the dressing room of either a picture studio or a theater.
The black-cat-across - your - path school of thought, however, hasn't lost any of its prestige, and Tyrone Power, Gary Cooper, Deanne Durbin, Errol Flynn, Dorothy Lamour and make-up expert Max Factor, Jr., are only a few who make wide detours of black cats.
George Raft, Spencer Tracy, Ina Clair, Stan Laurel and Akim Tiioff are life members of the nevervalk-under-a-ladder clan.
Nobody ever stands behind Myra Loy, Brian Donlevy or Cary Grant when they eat, for all have the firm conviction that spilling salt is an ill omen that can be rectified only by tossing more salt over the left shoulder.
Just as there are numerous superstitions among members of the film colony so there are good luck charms and tokens. Bing Crosby's charm is unique; it's an iron ring
made from one of Man-o-War's shoes.
Directors Frank Capra, Tay Garnett and Alfred Hitchcock all have the same pet idiosyncracy—each believes the picture he directs will be a success if the director appears somewhere in the production. Although seldom recognized, Capra, Garnett and Hitchcook are always among their extra players in at least one scene.

Eyes Must Have Their Vitamins
Boston. — (UP) — Perhaps 50 per cent and certainly 25 per cent of the country's population has impaired vision by vitamin A deficiency, says Prof. Robert S. Harris of Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
In Texas a company has installed a service whereby the lover of nickle-in-a-slot music can make his choice from a 5,000 disc stock by telephoning a central office—all for a nickle.
He told a convention of New England optometrists that the eye, like other tissues and organs, must be well nourished if it is to function properly. Harris says the diet should include vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin B2, protein, calcium and sodium.
The biology and public health professor declares the eye becomes hungry and even starved when the diet doesn't contain the right foods.
A condition known as 'twilight blindness' can be cured within a few hours, according to Doctor Harris, by injection of one milligram of riboflavin or vitamin B2. Certain animals and fishes can see in the dark, he reveals, partly because their eyes, contain 100 times as much riboflavin as human eyes.
To make the American diet adequate, Harris estimates that it would be necessary to "increase present day levels of consumption of milk by 20 per cent, butter by 15 per cent, tomatoes and citrus fruits by 70 per cent, leafy vegetables by 100 per cent and the amount of eggs by 35 per cent."
Mary's Lamb Had Nothing on Bertie's
Cumberland Mills, Me. (UP)— Bertrand Christie, 14, has a lamb that does everything that the famous one of Mary's did.
Bertie and his lamb have been constant companions since last August when the lad gave some reasons why he should have a lamb in an essay contest sponsored by the state agricultural department.
Like Mary's, Bertie's lamb follows him everywhere, including to the store, to school and at play. During the winter the animal was fitted to a harness and taught to drag a sled. During he summer Bertie hitched the lamb to a cart.

Lack of Reserves May Cage Wildcats
This is another in the series of roundup stories dealing with the prospects of teams on the Jayhawks' 1940 grid schedule. Kansas will play Kansas state at Baltimore, last fall. Jayhawks fell before the Wildcats 27 to 6 at Lawrence. Kansas State finished the season a year ago in a three-way tie for last place with Kansas and Iowa State.
It will be a new deal in football at Kansas State this fall, but only time will tell whether Hobbs Adams, erstwhile Southern California assistant coach and new Aggie headman, has any winning tricks up his sleeve.
108
WALLACE SWANSON Kansas State End
Adams, a former grid captain and one of the greatest ends ever to wear a Southern California uniform, took command at Kansas
State's spring practice and hence wasn't a stranger to the Wildcats who reported for the first drills this fall. From what he saw in the spring sessions, Adams realizes he will have a satisfactory backfield, spearheaded by big Kent Duwe, and a good starting line with outstanding ends. However, unless the new Kansas State mentor taps some hidden source of reserve strength, the line which starts the games this fall may also have to finish them.
Duwe, who made the Wildcat fans forget about Elmer Hackney when the "One Man Gang" was injured last season, may take over the signal calling from the tailback spot. Other candidates for the position are Letterman Gene Fair and Sophomores Francis Gwinn and Phil Quick. The fullback duties will be shared by Lyle Wilkins and Art Kirk.
One of Adams' most difficult tasks will be to find satisfactory replacements for the halfback posts where Christ Langvardt is the only letterman available. Langvardt will do most of the ball carrying with assistance from Ray Rokey, a squadman in 1939, and Dick Rogers, a sophomore. Max Timmons, another squadman last year, has the inside track as the blocking back, although two sophomroes, Gene Snyder and Bill Miller, are still in the running.
Kansas State's supply of ends this year is rated as one of the best in the Big Six. Wallace Swanson, Don Munzer, and Dick Peters are all fast, rangy, and experienced, and all are equally adept at catching passes. Jim Watkins, a highly regarded sophomore may show enough to break into the starting lineup and is certain to see a great deal of reserve duty.
prospects aren't so promising because of the absence of experienced replacements. Bernie Weiner, one of the best in the conference last year, and Norbort Raemer, another letterman, will probably get the nod at the tackle posts. Lawrence Duncan, a sophomore, and Kenneth Makalous, a letterman, will be in reserve. Ed Huff and Al Niemoller will probably be the starting guards will Nichols the only experienced substitute. All three are letter winners.
In the center of the line, the

KENT DUWE Kansas State Fullback
Ken Hamlin and John Hancock,
both lettermen, will fight it out
for the center position. Neither, however, is considered up to Big Six standard. Bill Miller, a sophomore, may be able to bolster this weak spot when he has gained experience under fire.
Missouri, Iowa State, and Kansas are the conference foes which Kansas State will meet at home, while the Wildcats must play Nebraska at Lincoln and Oklahoma at Norman. The non - conference schedule includes games with Emporia State, Colorado, Michigan State and South Carolina.
Lack of reserve strength and the time necessary for installation of the Adams system may keep the Aggies from climbing many notches in the Big Six race this fall, but it's a cinch the team from Manhattan will cause trouble for every opponent on its schedule.

Intensive scrimmages with the freshmen will probably dot the practice schedule this week and next as the Kansas mentor moves to counteract the experience Iowa State will have gained under fire in two regulation contests before the Cyclones kick off against the Jayhawks a week from Saturday.

Huddleston Is Senior Manager Of Intramurals
Lee Huddleston was selected today by Dr. E. R. Elbel as senior manager of the University intramural manager committee. Lee succeeds Earl Radford, first manager of the committee which was inaugurated last fall.

Every fall four freshmen will be chosen and the upperclassmen positions are obtained by elimination of preceding year's committee. Members of the committee are rewarded for their efforts by receiving a blue wool sweater with a Kansas intramural insignia on it.

The Kansan Comments -- EDITORIALS LETTERS PATTER
War Winter II
Reports sifting through to the United States from neutral observers in Germany indicate that the standard of the first war year's food rations can be maintained through the coming winter through the use of reserves previously accumulated. This estimate may deflate British hopes for the success of the blockade, but it also is of little comfort to the Germans now facing their second war winter.
Grain production reportedly was maintained near the peace-time level because of the employment on farms of an estimated million war prisoners and Polish civilians. An expected large potato crop and imports of corn from southeastern Europe and barley from Russia also will aid materially in providing a rationed sustenance for the Reich's population, although a scanty fat ration remains as the chief lack in the German winter diet.
However gloomy the outlook among the Germans who are facing another winter of scanty rations, they have some consolation in being certain they will be better fed than those living in most of the conquered countries—which constitute almost half of Europe. Nazi leaders and the German press have made it clear that the Reich cannot assume the responsibility of feeding people who live in the occupied territories.
The Battle of Dakar
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
The fate of Dakar, French West African naval station, which the British are now be sieging is unwritten history. So confused are the accounts concerning the incident that a clear picture of what has transpired is difficult to obtain. Shaking down the conflicting reports, however, the following facts can be ascertained:
Dakar, situated on the coast of the most westerly part of Africa, is an important city for a military power to control. Its docks are aplendid and the harbor is the best on that side of the continent. Dakar, a railhead, serves also as a communicating line with the African interior. The city's chief importance, however, is as a base on the route between Europe and Brazil.
Inside the harbor of Dakar six French warships, three cruisers and three destroyers, are trapped. This squadron, inactive at Toulon, sailed unchallenged past the British guns at Gibralter and half-way down the African coast to Dakar. Then, when the ships were far enough away from German aid, the British sent out a larger squadron under the leadership of General Charles de Gaulle, head of the "Free French" government in London and former assistant war minister under Reynaud. De Gaulle, who was aware of the revolt in French West Africa against the Vichy government, was determined to assist his compatriots. To the British, of course, the main purpose of the Dakar siege at present appears to be the prize of the French ships.
Six attempts have been made by the British squadron to land troops at Dakar. The city has been heavily bombarded, but has offered unexpected resistance. But de Gaulle, who reportedly has been unwilling to fire on his own countrymen—regardless of their political sympathies, has abandoned the siege. The action of the French general, however, will probably
not deter the British from pushing the attack as the African possessions loom into greater and greater prominence as pawns of the European war. The possession-hungry axis powers have already assumed control of aerial bases in this part of Africa.

New Dyche To Feature Animal Life Panorama
The "forgotten man" among University buildings is Dyche museum, now priming itself for its formal reopening during Commencement week this year as a part of the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration.
A giant panorama of the animal life of North America, covering the first floor of the completely redecorated building, is the feature of the Dyche restoration. Representing animal life typical of all the land from eastern North America to Alaska and
back across to Greenland, the panorama is unique in that it is all in one group, for such picturizations are usually done in groupings. Among the animals on display are the bison, antelope, mountain sheep and goats, bears, racoon, and caribou.
A 500-Foot Scenic
The scene is 500 feet long on the outside wall and 22 feet high. Background work, in the form of murals, highlights the whole scene and were painted by S. T. Dickenson of Lawrence.
The entire panorama was arranged by C. D. Bunker, assistant curator of mammals and birds at the museum. Klaus Abegg, an expert in taxidermy and restorations, has been imported to take charge of setting the exposition of animals and to care for them.
In viewing the mechanics of the scene it is interesting, but somewhat disillusioning, to note that the realistic looking rocks are made of screen wire and pulp and that the trees are covered with cement bark.
The linoleum which covers the entrance hall in the building is a museum piece in itself, for it represents the tree of vertebrate life, backboned animals.
To Show Extinct Birds
On the second floor of the restored buildings are the Indian collection and the display of birds. Among the most valuable of the birds in the museum are the passenger pigeon and the South Carolina paraqueet, both now extinct.
Sharks, lizards, giant turtles and
other forms of life common to Kansas in the days when it was part of a sea are on display in the basement.
Find Fish in Rock
One of the most unusual is the fish discovered in a rock. The imprint of the fish body is evident in the rock formation and matches the fish on display with it. Turtles of almost unbelievable size have been discovered in western Kansas and are on display.
Backgrounds for the dioramas displaying mammals, and aquatic life have been painted by Walter Yost, who is completing his master's work in painting. The actual reproduction work is being done by Bernard Frazier, University sculptor.
The aim of the resetting and redecorations has been to provide the most natural setting possible for this collection of animal life, which has long been relegated to attics and basements because the museum building was condemned. To make it more natural the artists studied the environments of animals and from the real landscape fashioned their murals. Of incidental interest is the fact that in the painting of the trees, Dickenson started at the top painting the branches first, following with the trunk.
Accompanying the displays are diagrammed or pictorial illustrations with verbal explanations, which were prepared by Yost.

ROCK CHALK TALK
By Reginald Buxton
Throats and Feet
EDNESI
Dr. Harold Barnard, Hollywood throat specialist, who is accompanying Wendell Wilkie on his presidential campaign tour, has his hands full in keeping the Republic candidate's voice from disappearing and in doctoring the numerous colds contracted by members of the campaign party. What is really needed, though, is someone to doctor the cold feet contracted by voters that were once upon a time Willie backers.
Consolation Prize
Now we know why inventors have long hair and a wild look. Inventor Lester Barlow, after a 21-year fight to make the government pay for an aerial bomb he sold in 1914, has finally received an order on the federal treasury for $592,719. Now he really needs help. The government will take approximately 80 per cent in taxes, his wife, suing for divorce, wants a piece of the change, and a couple of lawyers are fighting over half of the original amount. It appears to have been all a mistake for Barlow to even have become the father of a bomb.
Fish Story
Over around Sugar Creek, Mo., fishermen are complaining of an oily taste in the Missouri river catfish, caused they say, by pollution of the stream from the Sugar Creek refinery. That's the trouble with peanuts—always "carping." They don't even have to grease the skillet when they fry the fish.
Nuts
A Kansas City daily, with fine scorn, points out that a 200-acre filbert farm does not make Williek's running-mate, Charles McNary, farmer enough to talk to farmers as a farmer. They explain, "Filberts are those nuts you crack and munch while sitting around on Christmas afternoon." McNary should send a sack of his crop to the editorial staff of the paper. No card would be necessary.

Van To Ride Horse 50 Miles to Game
Champaign - Urbana, Ill. (UP) — notre Dame's four horsemen may have galloped many a yard down we playing field, but L. S. Griffith will ride horseback 150 miles to attend the football game which his ma mater, the University of Illinois, will play against Southern California, Oct. 12.
Griffith, ordering tickets for the game with the Rose Bowl champions, told C. E. Griffith, team manager, that a group of six or eight persons plan to ride here from Amoy, Ill. They will leave that town on Oct 6 or 7 and ride 25 to 35 miles a day, using state highway poulders.
"Interest in riding has increased in this territory and I see no reason why a former Illini and his friends should not return to their old stamping grounds in the old Indian way on horseback," Griffith, of the 1909 U. of I. class, said.
Suggests Six Methods For Successful Swoon
Hollywood—(UP)—It isn't often that a woman has to resort to such drastic measures as swooning to get her own way, but to those women contemplating difficulties in getting their new fall furs, Nana Bryant, veteran Warner Brothers star, offers six suggestions for staging a most em- phatic swoon.
Miss Bryant should know; she has a stage and screen back-ground of 24 years and has fainted in no fewer than 100 various roles. Her latest is in "Father Knows Best."
For the best faint, Miss Bryant recommends that the shoes be removed.
"If you have time," she explained "by all means remove the shoes before going into your swoon. The added support and balance given by standing in your stocking feet is invaluable."
"The second most important thing to remember," she continued, "is never to anticipate the floor. You'll meet it. Don't expect it to meet you half way."
The veteran actress might have added that no man is ever going to fall for a fainting act when the supposedly prostrate victim reaches out with rigid arms to make the landing a bit easier.
As for landing, Miss Bryant recommends landing on the side of the leg. "No man or silver fox is worth
landing on the knee cap," she advised.
The fourth point is never to arrange your faint so as to land in a chair across the room.
"There is always the danger that you might really lose your balance on the way over and hit your head."
"The most important thing to remember," Miss Bryant cautioned, "is to always remain relaxed.
"People who remain relaxed seldom get hurt. Intoxicated persons, for instance, rarely suffer injuries when they fall unless there's a river or railroad track under the bridge."
The last bit of advice offered by this authority on falls was to be sure to land on a rug-bare floors are so hard on one's constitution.
The delta of the Mississippi is advancing into the Gulf of Mexico at the rate of 260 feet a year.

MADRID, TOKYO---were reported fighting back strongly with attacks that damaged a cruiser and turned back repeated attempts to land military units.
4. AT GIBRALTAR, French airplanes bombed the British fortress for the second straight day, causing considerable damage and perhaps a score of casualties. Italian newspapers again claimed that Spain was on the verge of entering the war against Britain.
On London Again
5. GERMAN AIR RAIDS on London during the night were perhaps the most severe of the war, with "super" bombs bursting in the heart of the British capital, knocking down office buildings and causing extensive damage, especially around communication centers. Isolated Nazi warcraft continued to range over London today.
6 BRISTISH BOMBING SQAUD- RONS struck back at German bases with raids that extended from the French "invasion" ports, which were blasted by terrific explosions, to "the heart of" Berlin, where, the London air ministry said, military objectives were "successfully" attacked for the third straight night. So far, the Royal Air Force has not only continued strongly to resist Nazi daylight raids on Britain, but in the last week has been matching the German aerial armada in increasing the intensity of bombings.
Stall Italians
7. ON THE NORTH AFRICAN FRONT, where the Italian offensive into Egypt has been stalled for a week, the British air force struck at the big Italian port of Tobruk, in Libya, where the Italians reported 19 persons killed, 70 injured and
widespread destruction. The British also bombed Kufra in southern Libya and Dire Dawa in Ethiopia. The Italians reported they had retaliated with raids on Bura, in Kenya colony, and the Gallabat area in the Sudan.
8. GERMAN TROOPS landed at the Finnish port of Vasa, on the Gulf of Bothnia, after Finnish authorities had followed Sweden's example in agreeing to permit passage of Nazo troops en route to Norway. The full purpose of the German troop movements into Norway especially northern Norway, was undisclosed but there had been persistent reports of a possible attempt to oust British forces from Iceland.
CHINESE ARMY---area, and that all was ready for an attack when the Chinese government decided to give the order.
News of the Chinese attack reached here today as the Japanese announced they had started landing troops at Haiphong, the port of Hanoi, despite the abrogation by French colonial authorities of the agreement on which the landing was to have been based.
A Domei (Japanese) news agency dispatch from "somewhere in south China" said that army authorities had announced the start of landing operations "under the terms of the agreement," and had said in a communique:
Joint YM-YWCA Meet Tomorrow
"We expect the landing to be effected peacefully and amicably by application of the terms of the agreement."
Though the Japanese would be opposed only by French colonial forces in any fighting in the Haiphong area, they might meet serious difficulty from the Chinese.
A joint meeting of the Y.M.-Y.W.C.A. will be held at 4:30 tomorrow afternoon in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building to enable the members of the organizations to get better acquainted.
The program will consist of singing led by John Moore, secretary of the Y.M.C.A., talks by Ed Price, c'42, Jean Stauffer, c'42, acquaintance-making under the direction of Ernest Klema, c'41, and Mary Ewers, c'42, will lend the affair an informal air. All freshmen, both members and prospective members, are invited.
The membership so far this year is 436, a few under last year's number, but planned that way in order to streamline the organization. All members are expected to be at the membership banquet to be held Oct. 8.
Quill Club To Hold Meeting Thursday
Open house for prospective members of the National College Quill club will be held at 7:15 p.m., Thursday, in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building.
No special membership drive will be conducted this year other than the one carried on during registration.
G, N. Babet, instructor in English will preside at the meeting.

Plot Aimed At Mexican Army Fails
Mexico City, Sept. 26—(UP) An "insidious attempt" to split the army into rival political camps was revealed today by National Defense Secretary Gen. Jesus Agustin Castro. The movement failed because of the army's "staunch loyalty to the government."
Castro implied that supporters of Gen. Quan Andreu Almazan, who was defeated by Gen. Manuel Avila Camacho in the July 7 presidential elections, had tried to sow discontent and disloyalty in the army through anonymous letters.
In a message to all zone commanders, Castro said the army had thwarted a "perfidious malesvolent maneuver." He referred to the authors of the letters merely as "certain interested people."
Letters to Officers
Letters to Officers
The defense secretary said that the letters had been sent to various officers. They asked for lists of soldiers—apparently those who could be relied upon to support the opposition—included a warning to the recipients to "act with care" and to use code whenever appropriate; and denounced the present army leaders.
Gastro said the attempt failed because the goldiers promptly gave the letters to their superiors. He made the incident public because he wanted the entire army to know what was going on.
The National Defense department announced that reports from Chihuahua, Tamaulipas, and Puebla states said isolated rebel groups continue to surrender. Elsewhere in the country, all was said to be quiet.
Talk World Front
Crisis May Bring Grew To Capitol
Tokyo, Sept. 26.-(UP)—Joseph Clark Grew, United States ambassador to Japan, may be summoned to Washington to discuss the Japanese occupation of Indo-Chinese bases, the newspaper Miyako reported today in a special Washington dispatch.
The dispatch said that President Roosevelt and Secretary of State Cordell Hull were seriously examining far eastern policy as the result of the occupation and that a great change in policy seemed unavoidable.
Newspapers gave great prominence to Washington dispatches reporting a new United States loan to China. Asahi in its headline called the loan "retaliatory anti-Japan action as well as a China assistance scheme."
The foreign office declined comment.

Axis Threatens Five-PowerUnion
By Joe Alex Morris United Press News Editor
Great Britain's fleet and air force rained blows at Germany and Italy today as the Axis powers circulated reports that a world front of "new empires"—Germany, Italy, Spain, Russia and Japan—Was under discussion.
The Royal Air Force hammered away at both ends of the Axis, driving home one of the most extended attacks of the war.
Reeese Addresses Pharmacy Group
"Pharmacy is now recognized in all civilized countries, but even in the United States to many people are ignorant of what the profession is." Dr. J. Allen Reese, new dean of the School of Pharmacy, told students at the pharmacy convocation this morning.
"Since pharmacists must acquire a finely developed technique as well as a vast amount of fundamental knowledge, it is up to the students to make what they can of their career." Doctor Reese explained. "The profession is on the rise," he went on, "and students of the School of Pharmacy are to be the kings, lords, and czars behind the counters."

Enrollment in the reading improvement course for the fall semester has been limited to 60 students according to Bert A. Nash, professor of education.

Controversy over the Kansas-Missouri Thanksgiving game may be discussed today when Chancellor Deane Malott goes to Kansas City to attend a meeting at which F. A. Middlebush, president of the University of Missouri, also will be present.
Controversy over the date of the game began several weeks ago when the game was scheduled for Nov. 21 in Columbia. That day is Thanksgiving Day in Missouri, but only another school day here. K.U. authorities would prefer not to play the game on a day when classes are in session here. Missouri has refused to

British bombers swooped down on Tobruk, Italian base in Libya, for the second reid in two days. Rome reported that five persons were killed and 10 wounded. In East Africa British planes attacked Gura and Esololo in Kenya and Adi Galla, Metemma and Magi in Ethiopia. A British submarine sank an Italian torpedo boat in the Ionian sea.
The Axis reports of a world front of "new empires" came from Rome where they were linked with a conference which will be held tomorrow by Italian foreign minister, Count Galeazzo Ciano, and Adolph Hitler in Berlin. Ciano left for Berlin today.
The Berlin discussions were expected to include Ramon Serrano Surer, brother-in-law of Gen. Francisco Franco of Spain.
Axis sources insisted that diplomatic negotiations were going forward at high speed and that a "sensational accord of world wide importance" can be expected shortly. In this connection reports of Japanese-German discussions looking toward an alliance of Japan with the Axis and possible entry into the war against Britain were cited.
Londoners reported that it was plain by now that fundamental alterations in London's existence must be made. Suggestions were heard that the city be stripped of all but several million essential defense foces, that the metropolis be placed on a virtual military basis with ordinary civilian services cut to the minimum and unnecessary residents evacuated to reduce the terrific task of maintaining the huge center under war conditions.
The attack on London went on remerorslessly with German bombers piling up new damage and casualties and British concern over the future of life in London increasing.
It was pointed out that London has now absorbed, in probability, more combs than ever fell on Madrid, (continued to page eight)
Chinese Will Move, Order Evacuation
Shanghai, Sept. 26—(UP) Chinese leaders, preparing to throw a powerful army against the Japanese in Indo-China, have ordered the immediate evacuation of all Chinese from the country, a Chinese news agency dispatch from Chungking reported today.
Urgent instructions were sent the Chinese consulate at Hanoi to arrange the evacuation, the dispatch said, and also to ask Indo-Chinese authorities to compensate China for all losses it might suffer by reason of the agreement to permit Japanese troops to garrison a part of the Indo-China coastal area including three airplane bases.
Chinese Troop Attack
Frontier dispatches had reported yesterday that Chinese troops had attacked the Japanese Canton army in the Lunechon area, but it was known that for weeks China had been assembling a big army in Southern China to move it across the frontier if the Japanese landed troops in Indo-China.
A Domei (Japanese) news agency dispatch from Langston, on the Indo-Chinese side of the frontier area, reported today that an amicable agreement had been reached between Japanese and French Colonial offers at the spot and that as a result the

Nafe Replaces Rippey on MSC
George Nafe, e'41, has been named by the Pachacamac party to replace George Rippey, who did not return to school this fall, as one of the two engineering representatives on the Men's Student Council. It is also reported that the "Rising Sun party" has appointed Gene Whetstone, e'43, to take charge of the campaign for the 1940 freshman election.
Ill health caused Bill Douce, c'41, to relinquish party reins until after the yearling election, and caused the subsequent choice of Whetstone as the party whip.
The Council is now complete with the exception of the place of Don Ebling, '40, whose seat will be filled at the P.S.G.L. senate meeting next Sunday night.
The constitution of the Men's Student Council specifies that a party shall have the right to fill the positions vacated by men of the party.

Dakar May Be Used To Break Blockade
By United Press
Great Britain's abandonment of the attack on Dakar because of the magnitude of local resistance against the Free France movement raises the serious question of whether the Petain government intends to use Dakar as a base for trying to break the British food blockade. This possibility must occupy the attention of the British Admiralty, especially as a consequence of the safe conduct granted the six French warships from Toulon that passed Gibraltar into the Atlantic last week bound for Dakar. results than
The Vichy authorities announced the vessels were to escort food ships to French ports. Five of them now are supposedly at Dakar, one of the cruisers having gone to Cassablanca because of engine trouble. The French have been repairing at Dakar their new first-class battleship Richelieu and there are some other units of the French navy at the Senegal port.
Thus a strong French fleet is assembled on the flank of the Atlantic trade route from South America. It is not known whether the British bombardment of Dakar seriously damaged the French warships. The British state that two French submarines were sunk, but do not mention other French naval losses; so it seems possible that some at least of the French vessels remain serviceable.
The most pressing present problem facing Marshal Petain is to obtain enough food for the inhabitants of unoccupied France for the coming winter. Rationing already is in effect and if the food shortage becomes grave, rioting may well result, throwing occupied France into confusion and threatening the stability of the Petain government.
Great Britain's announced attitude is that Germany must bear responsibility for feeding all conquered territory, whether occupied by German troops or not. The only way Petain can meet this situation as it exists at present is to challenge the British blockade by the use of warships.
If Petain follows his announced intention of providing naval escorts for food ships, Great Britain must decide whether allowing the ships to pass will threaten less serious

results than battling the French war vessels on the high seas. In the background is the possibility that British attacks by blockading warships on French food convoys might cause the Vichy regime to declare war.
Vichy reports that the British squadron which attacked Dakar has moved southward. It may be headed for Freetown, in the British colony of Siera Leone, a secondary naval station with the best harbor on the West African coast. Freetown is 600 miles from Dakar and would serve as a watching post and a base for operations in the South Atlantic.
Sierra Leone borders a part of French West Africa, whose chief port is Dakar, while considerably farther south is the coastal frontier of French Equatorial Africa, which supports DeGaulle's Free France activities. DeGaulle is primarily responsible for the Dakar misadventure, and his interest must now be centered on not allowing Equatorial Africa to be influenced by the action at Dakar.
The major effect of DeGaulle's leadership and the muddle that occurred in London, however, cannot be known until the intentions of the French fleet are revealed. However, the British may be expected to use caution if the situation threatens to become grave. Some form of compromise with Vichy must not be ruled out of future possibilities, for military strategy suggest th at Anglo-French antagonism be not allowed to reach the stage of actual belligerency.

King Football Ascends His Throne This Week . . . However, the Jayhawks won't Play Until Oct. 5 . . . Paul Christman An Expensive luxury . . . Michigan Gridmen Will Fly to California.
Although some teams jumped the gun and began their seasons last week, King Football will really ascend his throne Saturday when at least 40 of the nation's outstanding eleveners kick off for the first time in 1940.
Among the more interesting battles scheduled for this week end are:
Boston College vs. Tulane
California vs. Michigan
Iowa State vs. Denver (Sept. 27)
Kansas State vs. Emporia State
Mississippi vs. L.S.U.
Ohio State vs. Pitt
Missouri vs. St. Louis
Southern Cal. vs. Wash. State
So. Methodist vs. U.C.L.A.
University of Kansas fans, however, must wait another week before their favorites go into action and two weeks until they can see the Jayhawks play in Lawrence. The first home game of the season is with Drake on Oct. 12.
PAUL CHRISTMAN, Missouri's All-American back, proved an expensive luxury recently when a leading metropolitan daily sent its color photography expert to Columbia to shoot numerous pictures of the Tiger passer for a Sunday rotogravure layout. The cost in bulbs alone ran an even $40 as the photographer took 160 shots with the bulbs costing 25 cents each.
The University of Michigan football team will pioneer the collegiate football world Wednesday, Sept. 25, when they climb aboard three United Air Line planes at Wayne airport, Detroit, and take off for their scheduled game with California at Berkeley, Sept. 28.
Kicking Practice For Kansas Team
With only one week of practice standing between them and a head-on clash with the Iowa State Cyclones at Ames, Oct. 5, the Jayhawk gridmen yesterday afternoon donned their kicking shoes and went through a long drill on kickoffs.
Chester Gibbens, 150 pound senior sharpshooter, whose two year record on Kansas elevens shows 10 points after touchdown by drop kicks out of 11 attempts, and Big Jim Holloway, who was a first string tackle last year and executed most of the kickoffs
Gibbens demonstrated the accuracy for which he is known in Middle Western pigskin circles, and Holloway was getting both height and depth into his booming kickoffs. Paul Hardman. 180-pound Topeka sophomore, who has been stationed at end this fall was shifted back to guard
for the Jayhawks, were outstanding during the kicking drill.
yesterday afternoon and will be given a trial at this position.
Coach Gwinn Henry tentatively announced a practice game for tomorrow afternoon, depending on whether he goes to Denver to scout the Denver-Iowa State game tomorrow night. In the event that he does make the trip, the game will be played Saturday afternoon.
36 Basketers Report For Freshman Practice
Freshman basketball practice began with a snap this week as Cordon Gray, former Jayhawk court luminary and new head freshman basketball coach, sent the 36 men reporting through calisthenics and basic fundamentals.
Workouts this week have consisted of passing, pivoting, and correct foot work. Goal shooting has been held to a minimum and actual scrimmage will be deferred for a few weeks. Francis Kappelman, an even more recent court star here, is assisting Gray at the practices which are $ ^{\circ} $ Kan.; Glenn; St. Auburn, Built held at 7 o'clock.

Cyclones To Miss Wilder
(This is another in the series of roundup stories dealing with the prospects of teams on the Jayhawks' 1940 grid schedule. Kansas will play Iowa State at Ames on Oct. 5. Last fall, the Jayhawks conquered the Cyclones 14 to 0 at Lawrence. Iowa State finished the season a year ago in a three-way tie for last place with Kansas and Kansas State.)
A year ago, only three regulars answered Iowa State Coach Jim Yeager's call for fall practice. In marked contrast, this season all but three regulars from last year's team checked out suits at the first training session Sept. 10.
The pigskin renaissance really might have been under way at Iowa State if "Hammerin' Hank" Wilder, ace fullback who led the Cyclones into the relatively unfamiliar atmosphere of second place in 1938 and whose absence due to injuries was one of the prime factors in their descent to the cellar last fall, had not been forced to give up the game due to a recurrence of an old injury. The 200-pound Wilder should have developed into one of the outstanding
fullbacks in the Middle West in this, his senior year.
Even without Wilder back, Coach
19
Yeager has more experienced backs than he can shake a stick at. Six letter winners including last year's entire starting backfield of Don Griswold and William Lechtenberg, halfbacks, Robert Seaburg, quarterback, and Merle Osborne, fullback, are on the Iowa State roster. Halfbacks Lincoln Stewart and Joe Taylor round out the supply of veteran ball carriers. Promising recruits from the freshman team are Halfbacks Paul Darling, Royal Lohry, and James Wertman; Fullback Clair Ethington; and Quarterbacks Larry Owens and Ellis Alexander.
DOUGLAS GRAVES
Ten lettermen were lost by graduation, but only four—Quarterback Hugh Vickerstaff, Center Jack West, and Ends Martin Boswell and Bill Bliss—will be missed. Yeager, who has an experienced player available for every position in the line, expects to mould his forward wall around Right Guard Tom Smith, who is captain and signal caller for the Cyclones. Besides Smith, there are two ends, three tackles, four guards and two centers who have earned letters.
Juniors John Heggen and Jean Lange, who weigh 180 and 185 pounds respectively, should be the starting ends this year with Douglas Graves, 180-pound two letter winner, and a trio of sophomores, Maurice Ryan.

Life in Battenfeld Hall Is Typical Day's Routine
Much has been written about Battenfeld hall and the plans for its dedication on Oct. 6, but many students and faculty members still are curious concerning the routine of student life on the cooperative basis.
Really, life is much the same there as in any other men's lying quarters except that it is impossible to tack on the wall a picture of Patty's latest dream or one of Varga's masterpieces without asking the proctor of the house for permission. It is a house rule that no tacks or nails be driven into the wall or woodwork without this permission.
If you were lucky enough to make the grade average required of a Battenfeld scholarship and were one of the 52 boys living in the house, your typical school day might be something like this:
At 6:30 the three boys on the breakfast cook squad roll out and go down to the kitchen to start breakfast. The other boys wake up a short time later, and most of them go to breakfast about 7 or 7:30 o'clock. You already are familiar with what happens during the average school day, and it is more or less the same no matter where you live. Another four boys prepare the evening meal. Following that comes the usual horseplay for a while, and at 8 o'clock quiet hours begin for the remainder of the night.
Study rooms have facilities for four men. A built-in locker across one wall has a clothes cupboard and four rows of drawers, for the personal possessions of the men.
Frosh Y Groups To State Lake
Freshmen Y.M.C.A. members will leave the Y.M.C.A. office at 11:30 Saturday morning for an outing at State lake. At 1:15 p.m. Dr. F. C. Allen will talk, and after that members will divide into discussion groups under Henry Van Swearingen and Prof. R. H. Wheeler.
The hours from 3 to 5 will be given over to recreation. Following supper, campfire singing will be held and a talk on the student Christian movement by Rev. Carroll Moon, new regional secretary of the Y.M.C.A. Hal Cook, a member of the Student Christian movement in Australia and recently returned to this country, will also give an informal talk.
A list of the upper-classmen who will attend along with the cabinet includes: Bill Fermer, l'41, Bob McKay, l'43, Leland Huddleston, b'41, Hugh Bruner, b'41, Carter Butler, c'41, Jack Dunagin, c'42, Jim Surface, c'42, Clint Kanaga, c'42, and Howard Engleman, b'41.
First W.S.G.A. Tea Held Yesterday.
The first of the weekly W.S.G.A. tea was held yesterday afternoon from 3 to 5 p.m. in the women's lounge of Frank Strong hall.
Girls who are members of the W. S.G.A. council acted as hostesses to freshmen women.
Jean Klusman, fa'41, was Ān charge of the arrangements.
Next to the locker is a mirror surrounded by shelves and provided with two outlets for those who have electric razors.
A highlight of the evening is when you decide to go down to the kitchen for a bite to eat off the "snack shelf." This shelf is provided for in the budget and the boys are free to use it at any time. Of course, they have all promised beforehand that they will not take any other food in the kitchen.
Just in case you had forgotten to put your socks in the laundry bag the last time you sent it home, there is a wash room in the south wing of the house equipped with two tubs, drying lines and an electric iron. After a few days in the Hall you would find that this room is used much more than you expected. Many of the boys do their washing and ironing there.
When finally you are tired of studying and want to go to bed, go up to the third floor to the dormitory and pile into bed. This room is equipped with double-deck spring mattress beds.
CYCLONES TO MISS--with the United States now was in prospect. Army inspector Gen. Marcelino Bergalli, and Air Force Chief Lieut. Col. Oscar Gestido left Buenos
LaVerne McGraw, and William Jahn,
in reserve. Lang has proved himself
a good pass receiver while Heggen
excels on defense.
At tackle will be 200-pound Bernard Mickelson, one of the bright spots in last year's dull season, and Leonard Thomas, 210-pound junior who was not out for football last fall but was impressive in the spring drills. Backing up the starters will be Melvin Happe, a letterman from last year, Jim Cobb, a minor letter winner a year ago, and four sophomores, William Barger, Ray Tenhoff, Stewart Barnes, and Lloyd Schubert.
Captain Tom Smith, who weighs in at 190 pounds, and LaVerne Lewis, a 180-pounder, are expected to start at the guard positions. Next in line are Robert Burrell, who alternated with Lewis last fall at left guard, and Ernest Mueller, a 2-year letterman. Leading sophomores are Homer Libbey, Robert Burge, Paul Salzman, and Ray Mitchell.
Robert Kirkpatrick, 185-pound junior, who was understudy to Jack West last season, is scheduled to take over the center post this fall. Other candidates for this position are Stanley Brown, 190 pound minor letter winner last year, and Robert Kline, 170-pound sophomore.
The Cyclones must play Nebraska, Missouri, and Kansas State on foreign gridirons this fall while entertaining Kansas and Oklahoma at Clyde Williams Field in Ames. The non-conference schedule, which includes Luther, Denver, Marquette, and Drake could in no way be called dangerous, so while the Iowa State eleven is not likely to cut a wide swath in the Big Six championship race, Jim Yeager's athletes may provide an upset or two and should better their last year's record of two victories and seven defeats.

Freshmen To Apply For Intramural Jobs
Applications for positions as freshmen intramural managers should be made in writing to Lee Huddleston, senior manager of the committee, room 107, Robinson gymnasium. The applications should be turned in not later than October 2.
The candidates will be interviewed and selections will be made by a committee composed of the senior intramural manager, supervisor of intramurals, and a member of the Men's Student Council. Four freshmen will be selected.
Of the six eligible upperclassmen on the present board, only five will be selected to continue on the board.
More Women Needed For New Courses In Social Dancing
All students interested in "brushing up" on their social dancing will be given the opportunity in the two social dancing courses offered this fall under the direction of Miss Katherine Dunkel, physical education instructor. There is a need for more women in both classes, since at the present time the enrollment consists largely of men. The beginner's class will be held at 2:30 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and the intermediate class at 2:30 on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Those who enroll in one of the courses will receive one credit a semester, but anyone may audit the classes without credit.
The swimming pool will be open to all women from 3:30 until 4:30 every day except Thursday, and from 10:00 until 12:00 on Saturday. This Saturday will be an exception because of Quack club tryouts. There is no charge and a life guard will be on duty every open hour.
Guard Against Nazi Activity
Montevideo, Uruguay, Sept. 26.—(UP)—An anti-Nazi campaign was extended today throughout this smallest South American republic.
The preamble to the decree said that the arrest of eight Nazi leaders, suspected authors of the so-called "fuhrmann plan" to seize Uruguay for Germany within 20 days, had failed to end the peril. It said that Uruguay had made "international promises" at the Pan-American conferences in Lima, Panama and Havana to "repress undue intervention from foreign organizations within its borders," and that the situation now called for action.
Stirred by evidence of agitation and plotting, for which the foreign office has bluntly blamed the German Embassy, President Gen. Alfredo Baldomir last night signed a decree drawn up by the ministers of interior and defense cailing on all police, soldiers and citizens to be on the alert and report immediately any signs of "propaganda or action which might endanger the national sovereignty or public order."
The eight Nazi suspects await trial. At the time of their arrest and the discovery of the "fuhrmann plan" in June, Uruguay had appealed for armed aid from Argentina, Brazil and the United States. It was believed that a military understanding
Aries yesterday enrouts to the United States where, it was understood, they will buy coastal defense guns.

The Kansan Comments -- EDITORIALS LETTERS PATTER
Indications now point to the inclusion of Japan, as well as Fascist Spain, to the Rome-Berlin axis for possible world domination. Whether Japan and Spain actually will become antennae to the axis or whether only such an impression of cooperation is intended should be revealed shortly, possibly within next few days.
Where Russia will stand in case Japan actually is to be included in the paet is difficult to predict. The air-tight censorship which obtains on Russia at this time has prevented any leaks of information as to what position Russia will take. Japanese-Russian relations have seldom been amicable, yet Russia also has an agreement with Germany. England recently has apparently made some headway in her efforts to improve relations with Russia. Russia appears to be simulating a half-asleep bear, able to stick out a heavy pair when the time arrives.
Quiet Bear
According to the usually well-informed II Popolo di Roma, Spain apparently has decided on active aid to the axis powers in the war against Britain, and Eiji Amau, Japanese ambassador to Rome, and the Italian foreign minister, Count Galeazzo Ciano, have reportedly discussed the international situation with "particular emphasis on the Japanese advance into French Indo-China." Just how firmly Japan is entrenched in the negotiations is a matter of speculation, although it is understood that Japan has agreed in principle on a defensive alliance with Germany, becoming effective should the United States and Great Britain collaborate on defense bases in the Far East.
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
Help Wanted
Over one-third of the women entering the University seek employment, either temporary or permanent during the year. The Women's Employment bureau helps these new students find jobs best suited for them. Last year, 428 girls applied for the 265 jobs offered. Despite the difference in these numbers, practically no girl was forced to leave school because she was unable to secure a position. This fact alone suggests the persistency and initiative which the members of this bureau exercise.
Miss Marie Miller, director of the bureau, keeps data on every working girl during her four years in college. This in a small way serves as a personnel department for those individuals upon graduation. It is Miss Miller's opinion that such a department should exist for the whole student body. The question of job placement would then be practically nil.
The University helps the bureau by offering women positions in University offices. Even though student employees are not always well trained, the University lays particular emphasis on trying to aid the struggling newcomers. The popular clerical jobs, however, are not numerous enough to go around. The remaining girls must be satisfied with such work as nursing, selling on commission, tutoring, poster making, housework, waiting tables, caring for children, cooking, ironing and cafeteria service. The girls who go home because of lack of employment are those who refuse to do any kind of a job. The opportunity of a job often depends upon the willingness of the employee. The bureau does not encourage those girls to stay who are dissatisfied or who do not wish to take certain positions. It is often better to go home.

GOSSIP, The Life and Times of Walter Winchell, by St. Clair McKelway,
The Viking Press, N.Y. 150 pages. $1.75.
Mrs. Winchell's little boy Walter has had the tables turned at last. Even with his eye and ear still to the keyhole, America's No.1 gossipsurveyor gets a thorough dissection by this caustic former managing editor of the New Yorker. The resulting introspective look at Winchell more often than not reveals him as the most interesting and quixotic of repulsive men. His portrait comes streaming in rather vivid purple.
Even more important than the notes on Winchell's home life, however, are the implications and overtones of this book on one of America's pastimes. Probably the one man responsible for the trend of modern newspapers to gossip columns of all kinds, according to the author, is Little Boy Peep. The New York Post, for instance, conservative in most journalistic respects, prints an avowed gossip release out of Hollywood today, where ten years ago such a breach would have been unthinkable.
If you follow the "Profiles" department of the New Yorker magazine, you have already read most of this book. The series of three articles, however, didn't give the more complete picture of the entire trend of gossip in this country which the book lays bare. It is interesting to note in passing, that a few days after the last article appeared, Winchell devoted an entire and lengthy column to debunking McKelway, Winchell, as usual in such cases, told his Stork club friends that night, "I let him have it."
Americans today are reading the inside story of the king's home life and the murderer's former gal friends and all the divorces of so and so with hungry interest—else Winchell and his hundreds of counterparts could not exist. But twenty, even fifteen years ago, the reading public would have considered such a column as Winchell's pure trash. What caused the change? According to McKelway the credit should go to a man with revolutionary ideas about what's news who started his New York career on the new extinct Evening Graphic. Readers suddenly found gossip on their liking. Winchell caught on and the Graphic circulation rose. Soon he had imitators everywhere, with an over-abundance in Hollywood, and the flavor of the gossip column was spilling over into the straight news story on page 1.
St. Clair McKelway isn't mad at Winchell. He is even sympathetic toward some of Walter's most egocentric oddities and his childish prattlings. McKelway seems to be the height of reasonableness as he tries to find what makes the Winchell mind click, what clicks the Winchell mind, and—most of all—why the Winchell column clicks—B.F.
Origin of 'Duke Street,' Religious Hymn, Obscure
"Duke Street," the hymn sung on many of the University's convocations and other events, beginning, "O God, beneath Thy guiding hand," has a much longer history than its traditional usage here. It has been sung for over a century in America.
Members of the faculty in the department of English have been spending some of their time in authorship.
New Books Out by K.U. Authors
Jolin F. Hankins, associate profes- department, is the editor of "Types of English Drama," announced for fall publication by Macmillan.
John E. Hanks, associate professor of English, is the author of "The Character of Hamlet and Other Essays," to be published by the University of North Carolina press. His "Life and Works of George Tuberville" is to be published this fall in the "University of Kansas Humanistic Studies."
One volume of the Humanistic Studies consists of contributions by various members of the department of English, "Studies in English." Among the contributors are W. S. Johnson, J. H. Nelson, Josephine Burnham, Clyde K. Hyder, John E. Hankins, John Virtue, William D. Paden, Harold D. Jenkins and Myra Hull. The volume is published in honor of Professors R. D. O'Leary and S. L. Whitcomb, formerly members of the department and editors of the series.
Three volumes will be published this fall by Edwards Brothers: "A
John Hatton composed the "Duke Street" tune in 1793. According to Dean D. M. Swarthout of the School of Fine Arts, the name "Duke Street" applies to the tune, not the words. All well known hymn tunes are identified by names whose origin, in most cases, is now obscure. This is customary since often many sets of words may be sung to a given tune.
Leonard Bacon, a Connecticut clergyman, wrote lyrics to the hymn in 1838. The Rev. Bacon, a Yale graduate, was pastor of Center Congregational church, New Haven, Comm., from 1825 until his death. He also acted as professor of revealed theology and a lecturer on American church history at Yale.
His "Duke Street" lyrics, grim but forward-looking, have been chosen by the faculty here for many years as appropriate for the more formal student gatherings.
Even the Civil war did not discourage his scholarly divinity, since he published a book, "Christian Self-Culture," in 1863.

MAY DISCUSS---change the date, action which would require M.U. students to journey back to Columbia during the Thanksgiving vacation if they are to see the game.
A date suggested by Kansas authorities is Saturday, Nov. 23, which both schools have open on their schedules. Such a change would satisfy the no-class requirements at Kansas, but it would stage the game while Missouri students are home on vacation.
PEP LEADERS---judge are O'Thene Huff, c'41, president of the W.S.G.A.; Betty Kimble, c'41, president of the Mortar Board; Ruth Spencer Asheraft, c'41, president of the Jay Janes; Bill Beven, ed'41, K-club president; Ernest Klema, Chief Sachem; Tommy Arbuckle, c'41, president of the Ku Ku's, and Farmer.
"I think this would do much in creating more enthusiasm among the student body," Farmer said. "The students have long felt that we need some additional attraction to our cheer leading staff. Other schools have been very successful in this and I think it would do much to help our school spirit."
TALK WORLD FRONT--bitter fighting in the Langson area had stopped.
Army Horses Get Lift in New Unit
Washington, Sept. 26.-(UP)-Cavalry horses riding in trucks and fast armored scout cars have been combined in an experimental National Guard reconniasance unit formed in Pennsylvania, Maj. Gen. Edward Martin. Adjutant General of that state, disclosed today.
Fee Payments Made By 3,500 Students
From 4,100 locally registered students, 3,500 fee payments have been received at the business office, Karl Klooz, bursar, said today.
Military damage has been limited, but the area of civil damage is growing constantly.
Today is the final day to get the official "paid stamp on registration cards without penalty. The penalty period begins tomorrow and will continue for five days exclusive of Sunday, during which time 50 cents a day is added for late payments. The final deadline for payments is Oct. 2, after which all unpaid fees result in cancellation of enrollment.
Martin said the unit will be composed of Pennsylvania's three oldest cavalry units—the First City Troop of Philadelphia, the Governor's Troop of Harrisburg and Sheridan's Troop of Tyrone. It will train at Indiantown Gap, Pa., prior to being mustered into the federal service.
The organization, said to be the first of its kind in the United States, will enable the cavalry unit to keep pace with the swift mechanized force and scout rough terrain not suitable for motor travel far in advance of their normal operations.
Another necessity, it was said, was protection against night bombers. One suggestion was a permanent patrol above the city of night fighter planes, prepared to take substantial losses to break up the bombing raids.
The First City Troop is the oldest military unit in the country. George Washington's bodyguard during the Revolutionary War, it still keeps its uniform of that time—red coat, white breeches, patent leather boots and brass helmets complete with flowing red plumes.
CHINESE WILL MOVE--bitter fighting in the Langson area had stopped.
One minor mystery remained unsolved. That was the Russian reaction to the landing of German troops at Vasa, Finland. Soviet newspapers offered no comment on this development.
Land Peacefully
A later Domei dispatch from the South China front reported officially that Japanese forces had been landed peacefully near Haiphong, the port of Hanoi, this morning under the French-Japanese agreement.
Hanoi had announced last night that French Colonial forces had withdrawn from Langson because an overwhelmingly strong Japanese army of 30,000 men was encircling them.
Women and children were being evacuated from the Haiphong area. dispatches from Hanoi reported, and from Thanhoa, 90 miles to the south, which was regarded as a possible Japanese landing point.
Farmer Finds Cows Eat Anything Green
Butler, Pa. Sept. 26-(UP)—Max Luther's cattle feed bill went up $100,
but the quality of the milk he sells failed to improve.
One of the prize cows he keeps on his 60-acre farm filched a roll of handkerchief-wrapped money from his pocket at feeding time.
Luther managed to salvage two $20 bills and one $10 bill before bossy's $100 gulp.

Information concerning the plan will be sent soon to all new staff members ad employees, and the annual meeting of Teachers and Employers Association, through which the group plan is administered, will be held sometime in October.
"Since its innauguration in 1928

Axis Concludes Pact With Tokio; Answer to U.S.
British Say Jap Action Aimed at U.S.
London, Sept. 27—(UP) Prominent members of Parliament took the view today that Japan's formal adherence to the Axis was directed primarily against the United States but that Great Britain can retaliate by new aid to China.
These circles, regarding the three-power pact signed at Berlin as "an empty threat," expressed belief that any United States conflict with Japan would now almost certainly involve the United States in the war with Germany and Italy.
But those who had feared that the United States might be distracted by developments in the Pacific ocean from helping Britain's war effort said

Sell More Dorsey Ducats
Nearly half of the tickets to the Freshman Frolic, featuring Tommy Dorsey's band Oct. 11, have been sold. Bell Music Co. has sold 40, the Memorial Union 122, and the business office 140, making a total of 302. According to Fred Littioy, dance manager, only 700 tickets will be sold.
N.Y.A. Receives Increased Fund
Japs Join Italy And Germany In Military Alliance
The local N.Y.A. office has been granted an increase of $1,200 over the August estimate, it was announced today. Yesterday's additional grant brings the total for the year to $48,045. However, this is still $2,580 short of last year. There are 335 students on N.Y.A. earning an average of $16.70.
By JOE ALEX MORRIS United Press News Editor
Germany, Italy and Japan swore a military alliance today in defense of their "new orders" in Europe and Asia and pledged themselves to fight as a common enemy any new nation which goes to war at the side of Great Britain or China.
The pact does not automatically bring Japan into the war against Britain or the axis powers against China. The alliance was signed at 1:13
Chief target of the alliance appeared to be the United States. Should America enter the war against Japan in the Far East or the axis in Europe she automatically would find the alliance of Germany - Italy - Japan ranged against her.
Russia was placed in a special category by one clause of the alliance which provided that the new pact "will not conflict" with any agreements the three nations may have with the Soviet.
The alliance was signed at 1:13 p.m. (7:13 a.m. EDT) in the chancellery of Adolf Hitler in Berlin. Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop signed for the Reich. Foreign Minister Count Galeazzo Ciano signed for Italy. Saburo Kurusu, Japanese ambassador, signed for Japan.
Alliance to Last 10 Years
For 10 years, as Ribbentrop announced, the agreement will bind in military alliance "three of the most powerful states on earth." (continued to page three)
Draft Dodgers May Be First To Join Up
Washington, Sept. 27-(UP) —Conscription officials today considered penalizing men who dodge registration on Oct.16 by calling them first for training.
No drive to force men to register is contemplated. Reliance will be placed upon publicity about the law and local public sentiment.
It is planned to post at the office of each local draft board after registration day the names and addresses of those who registered. Those who have will report those who haven't, it was anticipated.
Special plans were being made for persons who will be traveling on registration day. Transcontinental trains probably will stop long enough (continued to page three)
Thanksgiving Day Game to Missouri Date
At a Glance Here's the War
Berlin, Sept. 27—(UP)—Nazi quarters said today that the Berlin-Rome-Tokyo military alliance may be interpreted as "an answer to the destroyer deal between the United States and Great Britain."
Tirana, Albania, Sept. 27—(UP)—Anti-Greek agitation was renewed suddenly today in this Italian protectorate with the leading newspaper, Tomori, blaming Greece for the murder of three Albanians.
TOKYO, Sept. 27—(UP)—The Japanese foreign office spokesman, Yakichiro Suma, said today "We are not changing our policy toward the United States and we are not abandoning hope of readjusting relations with the United States."
LONDON, Sept. 27—(UP)—First British reaction to the German-Italian-Japanese alliance was to regard it an "empty threat." Authoritative quarters said it would not affect the present situation and it was difficult to see how Germany and Italy could take any stronger action against Britain as a result of the Japanese alliance.
DOVER, England, Sept. 27—(UP)—British bombing planes roared across the English Channel in an attack on German long range guns today during a duel between Nazi and British artillery on the French and English coasts.
Envoys Say
Pact Is
For Peace
Berlin, Sept. 27.—(UP)—Here is what the three men who signed the triple alliance said today as they affixed their signatures on behalf of Germany, Japan and Italy:
Joachim von Rippentrop: "Any state interfering with the new order in Europe or the new order in Eastern Asia will be confronted with the strength of more than 250,- 000,000 people."
Saburo Kurusu: "The final aim of this pact is the establishment of general and lasting world peace based on right and justice."
Count Galeazzo Ciano: "The three powers have no intention of challenging or threatening anyone. All three had to breathe in order to live. They all needed work for their sons, space for their peoples. This breath, this space, were refused them by those mighty empires who have monopolized the resources of the world."
The long-standing deadlock between Missouri and Kansas over the date for the Thanksgiving Day football game was settled today when Kansas authorities agreed to play on Thursday, Nov. 21. Missouri's choice on the date.
The game was scheduled for Nov. 21, M.U.'s Thanksgiving Day, but University authorities desired not to play the game while classes were in session here. The difference between Turkey Day dates in Kansas and Missouri caused the controversy. Kansas athletic heads suggested Saturday afternoon, Nov. 23, but that date comes during Missouri's vacation and would require all students to come back to Columbia if they wanted to see the game.
Chancellor Deane Malott today announced the game would be played according to Missouri's wish, on Nov. 21, "inasmuch as the University of Missouri acts as host this year and it is its Homecoming."
"In this emergency," the Chancellor said, "the game will be played on Nov. 21."
"Although formal classes will be dismissed on that day, in view of the fact that it is not Thanksgiving Day in Kansas, laboratories, libraries and offices will be open as usual. All students will be expected without exception to attend Friday and Saturday classes in that week."
Regents Talk Fee Refund For Draftees
A plan for refunding the fees of students enrolled in state schools who may be called in the military conscription was the principal business discussed at a meeting of the Board of Regents in Topeka this morning.
A discussion of the building program for state schools was also slated for today's meeting of the board.

Luck O' the Irish' Is So Much Alfalfa, Says Actor Pat O'Brien
Hollywood, Sept. 26—(UP)—So far as Pat O'Brien is concerned, the "Luck o' the Irish" is so much alfalfa.
“Every time an Irishman gets anywhere,” said Pat, “someone dips up that moth-eaten phrase to explain it. Whether it is in business, in politics, in the theater or in the professions, they just take it for granted, grin and mumble something about the luck of the Irish.
“If a man plays out his string, whether he’s an Armenian, a Portuguese or a Greek, he's bound to have a little luck. I've had my lucky breaks just like anyone else, but 90 per cent of success is the ability of a man to refuse to give up in the face of bad luck.”
O'Brien's discourse on Irish good fortune was delivered on the set of "Passage West," in which he is being starred with Constance Bennett at Columbia.
"Every man needs that one important opportunity," he continued, "but it will come to him if he has gumption enough to play out his string. When it does come, however, he must be able to fill the requirements and all the luck in the world won't help him if he isn't up to the assignment.
"I lived in ball rooms for years, and nobody can tell me that there is anything lucky about that. I've played one night stands and been stranded in a dozen towns hundreds of miles from Broadway. What's lucky about that?
"Sure, I've had breaks like everyoe else has had. There are two in particular. The first was when I lost the part of the managing editor in the New York company of 'Front Page' and went on the road with the second company instead. I thought at the time that was a bad break, but I met a girl in the company by the name of Eloise Taylor. She's Mrs. Pat O'Brien now, and that's the biggest stroke of luck I've ever had.

AXIS CONCLUDES---that the Berlin agreement apparently dissolved that possibility.
-
-
As for Britain's reply, it was believed in Parliamentary circles that this government could only agree to reopening of the Burma road after Oct. 18, to renew aid to China. The road, over which supplies reached the Chungking government, was disclosed early this summer on demand of Japan.
China also is expected to seek further financial aid here.
The United States, more than ever, must pursue a two-ocean naval policy, British sources believed, as a result of the Berlin pact.
Chinese circles said they welcomed the pact as "clearing the air" and dividing the world into totalitarian and anti-totalitarian camps. In this lineup, they said, Soviet Russia takes a benevolent attitude toward Germany and seems to be the only great power remaining outside the arena.
The pact raised the question of whether Moscow had been consulted in advance, but there was a belief here that Japan had discussed the situation with the Soviets and been assured of passive acceptance.
BRITISH SAY--positions clear in advance by signing up in the new pact.
'Empty Threat' Says Britain
Signing of the pact, in the presence of Hitler, took two minutes.
Spain, repeatedly heralded by the axis press as an imminent partner of Germany and Italy, was not a signatory. There was no explanation of Spain's failure to join the axis. However, Ribbentrop announced that other nations which desire to "preserve order throughout the world as well as to restore peace" are welcome to sign up later.
There was no mention of the United States in the agreement. But Rome quickly dispelled any doubts which might have existed as to purpose of the pact. Responsible Italian quarters said it was a plain warning to the United States not to interfere in the European or Far Eastern wars.
Nations which desire to participate in the carving up of the world expected to follow upon German-Italian-Japanese success at arms, it was hinted plainly, must make their
Although the axis is not required to enter Japan's fight against China or Japan to fight Great Britain, the pact provided mutual recognition of the respective "new orders" in Europe and Asia.

Great Britain's reaction to the alliance was prompt and expressive. London characterized it as an "empty threat" and while the signing ceremonies were going forward at Berlin, Royal Air Force fighters pounced on German bombers attempting a heavy raid and shot down 18 of them in a great series of dog fight in which two British planes and one pilot were said to have been lost.
First test of the new alliance, it appeared, may be in the making in the Far East where Japan's policy of vigorous expansionism into the southern Pacific already has brought a head-on collision with the United States.
'Clash with U.S. Inevitable'
Tokyo spokesmen warned bluntly today a 'clash between Japan . . . and America . . . now seems inevitable." This was the reaction to Washington's latest moves—the application of an embargo to shipment of scrap steel and iron to Japan and the granting of new credits to China to carry on her war.
"Our views on these discriminatory acts are well known," Japanese spokesmen said.
Far Eastern crisis points appeared to be French Indo-China and the great International settlement of Shanghai.
The Royal Air Force carried out hard-hitting raids against Germany, striking at French channel ports, German shipping, the Kiel canal and inland waterways. Fierce fires blazed along the Channel coast.
Berlin claimed that British raids were limited to Belgium and the Netherlands.
London had an intensive early morning raid after two night raids of limited severity. A maternity hospital and 1 famous wine cellar were hit. Mersey (Liverpool) was bombed. Yesterday's air totals were given as 34 German planes downed, eight British and three pilots lost. Germany claimed 400 tons of bombs were dumped on Britain during the night, 250 tons on London.

DRAFT DODGERS---example of the trend on Mount Oread comes in an incident involving Don Pierce, first string varsity center. One day recently, Dale Lowery, freshman center from Dodge City, asked Pierce several questions about playing the position. After Pierce had answered the queries, he took the time and trouble to show Lowery a number of other things about a center's stance and the art of passing the ball. The result was that Lowery rejoined his freshman mates a much improved center and firmly convinced that Pierce was a "swell guy." Such cooperation as this pays big dividends.
An insurance plan for all conscripts was agreed upon yesterday at a meeting of House and Senate conferences on the excess profits tax bill. Each conscript will be allowed to take up to $10,000 insurance at a price expected to be slightly higher than the 66 cents per thousand dollars charged world war soldiers.

What's the use of being a quick-thinker if your pen won't work when your brain does?
A college professor found that this gets many a student down. So he invented a brand-new way of filling pens—a way that makes more room for ink INSIDE by dispensing with the customary rubber ink sac.
Parker spent 5 years to engineer this revolutionary principle to perfection—this sacred "One-Hand" Filler—the Parker Vacumatic—the largest selling pen in the world today.
And its crowning glory is that streamlined Pearl and Jet style—laminated. Ring upon Ring, as shimmering as velvet—wholly smart, original and exclusive—winner of the Pen Beauty contest.

Jayhawk Compare In Weight With Iowa State's Cyclones . . . Another Reason For Tom Stidham's Happiness . . . Crime Note . . . Members of Kansas Varsity and Freshman Teams Show Spirit of Co-operation.
THE AVERAGE WEIGHT of the Jayhawk first string line as of yesterday afternoon stood at 198 pounds while the probable starting backfield scaled 179 pounds. Chances are these figures won't undergo extensive alterations between now and Oct. 5, so the Kansas eleven should be the equal of the Iowa State team as far as pound goes. The Cyclone athletes who started against Luther last week averaged 190 pounds in the line and about 175 in the backfield.
One of the chief reasons that Tom Stidham, Sooner grid coach, is smiling continually but saying nothing is Johnny Martin, 185-pound Oklahoma senior back who played $164\frac{1}{2}$ minutes of varsity football last year but wasn't expected to be of much assistance when practice began this fall. In a game against the freshmen Wednesday, the same Martin scored four 'courtdowns as Stidham's varsity rolled up 31 to 0 score.
Crime Note . . . Topeka police still were confronted with a difficult task yesterday—the problem of discovering who stole two tackling dummies from the Washburn College football field several nights ago.
A SPIRIT of co-operation is growing up between the Kansas varsity and freshman football players that everyone is glad to see. After all, these present freshmen are going to be playing alongside the varsity men next year and it is important that they get off to a good start. However, at some schools the varsity men loose sight of this fact and make life miserable for the freshmen. In such cases the freshman year is a discouraging one, rather than a period in which a young player picks up numerous invaluable pointers. An

Bulldogs Sharpen Claw for Big Year
(This is another in the series of roundup stories dealing with the prospects of teams on the Jayhawks' 1940 grid schedule. Kansas will play Drake at Lawrence Oct. 12. Last fall, the Bulldogs won from Kansas 12 to 6 at Des Moines.)
From last year's pack of Drake Bulldogs which snarled its way to six straight victories before dropping the last four games on the schedule, Coach V. J. "Vee" Green has an abundant supply of husky linemen but may experience some difficulty in rounding out a quartet of experienced backs.
Drake's schedule this year is another rough one and, in addition to Missouri Valley conference games, includes contests with Montana State, Kansas, Iowa State, Grinnell, and Navy. Following the battle with Kansas at Lawrence
Oct. 12, Drake's warriors will en-
train for Annapolis, Md., where they will clash with Navy the following Saturday.
Lettermen all along the forward wall should help the Bulldogs through their grueling schedule. At center will be Jay Cox, 188-pound senior, who held down the pivot post last year. Letter-winning guards back for another season's competition are Leonard Adams, 182 pounds, Clarence Dillon, 185 pounds, and Bill Conrad, 164 pounds.
The tackles, led by 207-pound co-captain John Kubelius, are all big and tough. Willis Neesson, 200-pound junior, and Willard Cushinberry, 192-pound senior from Lawrence, Kans., will fight it out for the other starting tackle berth. Chandler Olson, the two-letter co-captain, and Emory Reeves, 190-pound regular in 1939, should handle the end positions with considerable help from Rubert Haight, last year's freshman standout.
[Name]
No experienced quarterbacks are aavailable and Coach Green may be forced to go along with one of his three sophomore signal callers if
Gene Moore, senior squadmen, does not win the starting nomination. Owen Summers, Sherman Paul, and Harold Anderson, all up from the freshman team, will be trying to edge into the varsity lineup.
Four halfbacks who have won letters are back and Green should have no worries at this spot. Competition for starting berths will be staged among Walter O'Connor, Ralph Frank, Ralph Doherty, and Morris White. Returning lettermen at fullback are Harry Dickson and Ray Wero, two 180-pound juniors.

Allen Brings Out Crying Towels As Cagers Report
BY CHUCK ELLIOTT. c'43
BY CHUCK ELLIOTT, c 43
The "Beware" sign is being hung out again here at the University of Kansas for all Missouri Valley basketball coaches to read and then wither. The sign is in the form of Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, perennial champion producer, who has brought out the crying towel in behalf of his Jayhawkers in only the first week of varsity practice and it is still September.
If past years are any criterion, the Jayhawks should sweep through another championship year. During recent campaigns when Allen bemoaned the quality or quantity of his squad, his Crimson cagers have delivered the goods and brought back a title to Mount Oread. This year, Coach Allen is worrying no end as to how he will replace his sparkplug, Don Ebling, his steady sweet-shooting backline-man, Dick Harp, his all-valueable utility man, Bruce Voran, and his most potent offensive threat, Ralph Miller. He cites that only three of his regular varsity men Howard Engleman, John Kline, and Bob Allen are returning.
To fill the breach, however, he can
Backfield Excels
The starting eleven with Hall, Vandaveer, Suagee, and Fry in the backfield chalked up two touchdowns on
Fumbles dominated football practice yesterday afternoon as Gwinn Henry's Jayhawkers scrimmaged against the frosh. Despite the occasional bobbles, the passing and running plays went off smoothly.
Outstanding feature of the practice was Marvin Vandaveen's passing. "Vandy" was hitting his fast moving targets, Ed Hall, Jake Fry, and Denzel Gibbens consistently. Harlan Altman and Irven Hayden also turned in
Coach Henry used three lineups alternately against the freshmen eleven with stress being laid upon the Jayhawks' aerial attack. The varsity worked to perfect its offense and defensive work was put aside for the day.
Don Pollom, sophomore ace, was particularly successful in finding holes in the freshman forward wall. Pollom combines a fine change of pace with plenty of speed. Quido Massacre, varsity left guard, was the line standout of the day.
passes from Vandaveer to Hall and Fry. Another lineup was sent in which tallied three times. Altman passed to Ed Lindquist for a score, little Chet Gibbens raced 19 yards off tackle to the goal stripe, and Hayden tossed a long one to Denzel Gibbens who made a sheostring catch for the third touchdown.
Warren Hodges, 215-pound freshman tackle hailing from Lawrence, was brilliant in his defensive play for the freshmen. Don Ettinger and Ray Evans, formerly of William Chrisman and Wyandotte high schools respectively, should also see plenty of action next fall if yesterday's performance is any indication.
call upon three other lettermen of last year, T. P. Hunter, Bill Hogben, and Bob Johnson. To supplement these six, Allen has two transfer lettermen, Norman Sanneman from Washburn and Marvon Sollenberger from Hutchinson Junior College, to work in with his sophomore crop headed by John Buescher.
Actual scrimimage will start next week in moderate amounts as Allen tries to find a suitable combination. This might entail the shifting of his son, Bob, from center or quarterback to guard to team with Kline.
The 24 men reporting at the present time are John Kline, Hutchinson; Virgil Wise, Lawrence; Harley Anderson, Kansas City; Dewitt Potter, Lawrence; T. P. Hunter, Oklahoma City, Okla.; Allen Niper, Topeka; Kenneth Dunn, Merriam; Marvin Sollenberger, Hutchinson; Don Blair, Ottawa; Howard Engleman, Arkansas City; Bill Hogben, Kansas City, Mo.; Bob Johnson, Kansas City; Bo Juenescher, Beardstown, Ill.; Ted Moser, Topeka; Jim Arnold, Downs;

New York, Sept. 27-(UP)-Hell hath no fury like a Max Baer unafraid.
Give the California butcher boy a chunk of undressed beef and he'll cut you a mess of tenderloins, T-bones, and porterhouses inside of a minute.
Max had a little more than a minute last night, so he did even better. He took the 207 pounds of Pat Comiskey and pounded them into an irish stew. The official time of the knockout in New Jersey's fragrant meadows was 2:39 of the first round, and the
finish found the Harp all played out.
Baer's last punch knocked Comiskey completely senseless and into the ropes. He would have fallen onto the apron, but as he sagged his lantern jaw caught the top strand and there he hung, neither up nor down and a bulls-eye for Baer's next blow.
Baer got set as if to punch, but then, as if remembering that he had killed an opponent under similar circumstances in California years ago, looked inquiringly at referee Jack Dempsey. Jack was a man
without mercy when he was fighting but this was too much even for him. He ordered Max to cease firing and together they hoisted the New Jersey boy off the ropes.
Last night's fight demonstrated once more that Baer is a really great heavyweight when facing a foe he does not fear. From the time I left the ringside until I was out of the stadium I heard no fewer than 20 persons say: "If Baer would just fight Joe Louis that way, he could regain the heavyweight championship."
And they may have been speaking the truth.
Baer answered the bell against Comiskey with his cobble-stone fists drawn back, and when the men met he started throwing them. There was none of the ridiculous effort at boxing that he employs against fighters he fears. No jabs, no feints, no fancy footwork. Just plain, unadulterated slugging. He piled onto Comiskey and belabored him with roundhouse rights, looping lefts, chops, hacks, and butts.
Never let anyone tell you Maxie can't hit. He's been around a long time, but there still isn't a more fearful punch in boxing than the California's full, 14-karat, up-from-the-floor, right. It descends with all the delicacy of a safe from a tenth floor window, and the human jaw never was meant to withstand such a shock. Comiskey was supposed to be a youngster who could take a punch and keep coming, but once Maxie's right landed on him Pat was beyond the help of Mother Machree, the blarney stone, Brian Boru, the river Shannon, and even mayor Frank Hague. His feet began to do a jig and his head kept step.
Baer took his victory modestly. He stayed in the ring only 30 minutes after the fight, took only 365 bows, and posed for only 125 pictures. In addition to $30,000, Baer was given a belt emblematic of the "World's White Heavyweight Championship of New Jersey" by promoter Jack Kearns. It was of solid imitation aluminum, stippled with genuine imitation Rhinestones. Under the ring lights it looked like nothing so much as one of those roadside signs that caution—"slow—illness when wet."
My suggestion to Max is that he put the belt to some real practical use such as strapping it around his chin if and when he fights Joe Louis.

The Kansan Comments-- EDITORIALS LETTERS PATTER
Military experts have for years been alarmed about the vast quantities of scrap metal that were destined for Japan for armaments, but it was not until January of this year that the United States abrogated the commercial agreement of 1911, placing trade relations with Japan on a 24-hour basis, and thereby shaping a more effective economic club. Another link in the chair of incidents leading to yesterday's embargo was forged July 25, when exports of aviation gasoline and lubricating oil, tetraethyl lead (used in producing high octane aviation fuel), and No.1 heavy smelting iron and steel scrap were prohibited without a license from Lieut. Col. Russell L. Maxwell, administrator of export control.
The embargo, which left the way open for exports of metal to Great Britain and to nations in the western hemisphere, is the climax to a series of restrictions on exports to a nation that has depended on American purchases to build its military machine and to keep it in operation during the past three years against China. As a result of Japan's recent moves in French Indo-China and the expectation that Japan will actively support Germany, the president's action was without any element of surprise.
Yet, oddly enough, the July executive order, which set August 1 as the deadline for the free export of top grade scrap, permitted the Japanese to purchase semi-finished steel, pig iron and No.2 steel scrap, which easily could be converted into armaments. Little wonder that Yakichiro Suma, foreign office spokesman in Tokyo said, "Official reports confirm the belief the order won't affect us much." But another more effective clamp was envoked August 1, when an executive order was issued which barred all exports of aviation-type gasoline outside the western hemisphere.
The Scrap Embargo
President Roosevelt yesterday invoked the use of perhaps the most powerful economic weapon the United States could aim at Japan, an embargo on shipments of scrap iron. Japan was not specifically mentioned in the statement, which at last puts teeth in an embargo measure approved more than two months ago although the president's action came within 24 hours of the export-import bank's new $25,.000,000 loan to China and followed closely in the wake of disturbances in French Indo-China.
How much the Japanese depended upon American exports of scrap metal can be judged by a department of commerce report which stated that 1,382,000 tons of scrap were shipped from the United States in 1938, constituting 86 per cent of all scrap metal imported by Japan. The following year, 1939, Japan imported 2,-027,000 tons of metal, which, in the absence of reliable information concerning imports from other countries, was estimated at 86 per cent of its total importation. Tonnage of scrap which went to Japan's smelters from 1933 to 1939 follow:
1933—548,000 1936—1,058,000
1934—1,168,000 1937—1,905,000
1935—1,118,000 1938—1,382,000
1939—2,077,000
1939—2,027,000
During the first five months of 1940, Japan imported 354,607 tons of scrap metal, compared to 856,358 tons during the same period in 1939, a
drop attributed to Tokyo's conservation of foreign exchange and other factors.
In the light of recent statements by iron and steel men that an "abundant supply" of scrap metal exists in the United States, the explanation that the embargo was put into effect "with a view to conserving the available supply to meet the rapidly expanding requirements of the defense program of this country" does not ring quite true. However, the explanation is only of secondary importance. What is important is the fact that the United States has at long last acted to stop arming a country that, as the war continues to shift, may be its enemy.

Show Globes Symbol of Pharmacy
As every barber shop had its barber pole, so every drugstore had its show globe—or at least all the ancient drugstores had at least one. Show globes are single, double, or triple-decker glass jars filled with liquids of blue, green, and red, and is used as symbol of the profession of pharmacy. cut-glass. At present they are on display in the School of
Although the School of Pharmacy is not a drugstore, it has its collection of show globes. Since show globes rapidly are becoming collector's items, the collection at the University is gaining in value. This group of globes was secured through the years by L. D. Havenhill, former dean of the school. Both antique and modern globes are in the collection. Instead of painted designs on the globes they are made of the finest
Whenever show globes are mentioned the question of their origin comes up. According to an article published by a pharmaceutical manufacturer, the origin of the use of these symbols evolved from the pots and jars of many-colored earthenware or glass found in the open front shops of the Near East. All drug dealers of Western Europe have used the show globe as a symbol of their profession.
Twenty-two students have been elected to apprenticeships in the University Dramatic club, it was reported today. Tryouts for the organization were held this last week in the Little Theater of Green hall.

Nazis Control Rumanian Oil
Bucharest, Sept. 27.-(UP)-Seven of Rumania's largest oil companies, operating with British and American capital, have been placed under the control of a commissar appointed by the ministry of national economy.
Government quarters said it was not confiscation. Officials of several oil companies said it would tend to "restrict" operations.
The companies affected were the Colombia, Anglo-Rumanian, Rumanian-American, Unirea, Concordia, Steaau-Romana, and Disiributzia.
It was generally believed that the move followed consultations between Rumanian and German officials. Germany is known to be most anxious to obtain all possible oil from Rumania, and some time ago, these companies had asked government permission to reduce their production because of insufficient storage facilities.
H. R. Freeman, of Saratoga, N.Y., who had been arrested yesterday with five Englishmen and charged with a sabotage plot, was released after extensive questioning in the Iron Guard "green house." Authorities said he had not be mistreated.
An oil well 6,000 feet deep can be gunk in 12 days.

Text of the Axis 'Peace' Pact
Berlin, Sept. 27.-(UF)-The text of the German-Italian-Japanese military alliance:
The governments of Germany Italy and Japan consider as a prerequisite for lasting peace that every nation receives commensurate (living) room. They therefore are determined to stand side by side and to collaborate in their efforts for greater East Asiatic and European areas in which their highest goal will be to create and preserve a new order of things designed to foster the prosperity of the peoples in them.
Furthermore, the three governments desire to extend collaboration with such nations in other parts of the world who are desirous of imparting their aims in a direction similar to that of the three powers in order to thereby realize their efforts which are directed towards world peace as their final goal.
In accordance with such aims the governments of Germany, Italy and Japan herewith agree to the following:
Article I: Japan recognizes and respects German and Italian leadership in the creation of a new order in Europe.
Article II: Germany and Italy recognize and respect Japan's leadership in the creation of a new order in the greater Asiatic area.
Article III: Germany, Italy and Japan agree to collaborate in their efforts on the basis of the aforesaid lines. They undertake further to assist one another with all political, economic and military means when one of the three contracting parties is attacked by any power not at present involved in the European war or in the Chinese-Japanese conflict.
Article IV: With a view towards implementing the present pact, joint technical commissions, members of which are to be appointed by the respective governments of Germany, Italy and Japan, will meet without delay.
Article V: Germany, Italy, and Japan affirm that the aforesaid terms do not in any way affect the political status which exists at present as between each of the three contracting parties and Soviet Russia.
Article VI: The present pact shall come into effect immediately upon
signing and shall remain in force for 10 years from the date of its coming into force. At the proper time before expiration of the said terms the high contracting parties shall, at the request of any of them, enter into negotiations for its renewal.
In faith whereof, the undersigned,
duly authorized by their respective
governments, have signed this pact
and have affixed hereto their seals.
Done in triplicate at Berlin, the 27th
day of September, 1940, in the 18th
year of the Fascist era, corresponding
to the 27th day of the ninth
month of the 15th year of Syova.

STUDENT PAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
VOLUME XXXVIII
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SUNDAY, SEPT. 29, 1940
T. B. Tests To 424 K. U. Staff Members
Z-229
NUMBER 11
Faculty members and University employees who have reported for tuberculin tests at Watkins hospital Saturday noon number 424. There are still approximately 275 to be given tests. The tests required are part of a drive by the University to safeguard students from tuberculosis.
The test, which consists of a minute skin injection, is given in two parts: the first dose is extremely small and gives a positive result to the extremely sensitive person. If the result is negative, the second dose si increased 250 times. The test is a screen to pick out persons needing X-rays. In the past, the average positive tests among students was 35 per cent, the average active cases 3 or 4 per cent. The positive test shows that the individual at one time has been subjected to the tubercule bacilli, even though the bacteria may not be active anymore.
The University is concentrating on the tuberculin survey because an active case of the disease is so far advanced by the time the symptoms appear that many people are exposed.
After the faculty member and employee examinations are completed, tests will be given at the student hospital for all food handlers in any organized or unorganized houses operating for hill service. Thirty or 40 student tests have not been completed, because some students did not want to take the test. Others have dropped out of school.
Socialist Candidate To Speak Here
Maynard C. Krueger, vice-presidential candidate of the socialist party and member of the University of Chicago economics faculty, will speak at two meetings to be held in the Memorial Union building on Oct. 8.
Making a campaign swing that covers the Eastern and Central sections of the country, Krueger's only other stop in Kansas will be at Wichita.
Pachacamac, the minority party with the ten underdog votes, is the oldest collegiate party on any American campus. It was founded here in 1900 and now is in its thirty-first year.
The vice-presidential candidate running mate of Norman Thomas, will speak first following a noon luncheon in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building at which he will be guest. Krueger's remarks at the second meeting, to be held at 3:30 p.m. in the Kansas room, will be followed by a group discussion of campaign issues, according to Freeman Myer, c'41, spokesman for the University group which is sponsoring Krueger's appearances.
Party control within the two parties is exercised by the Pachacamac inner council which had its first meeting last Sunday night and
Hill Political Parties Jockey For Positions
Krueger's ability as a student of contemporary economic problems has become widely known through his participation in discussions on the University of Chicago roundtable broadcasts. He became an assistant professor of economics at the University of Chicago in 1932 and for three years was vice-president of the American Federation of Teachers He was born on a Missouri farm and attended the University of Missouri
The Council this year is in the hands of P.S.G.L., (Progressive Student Government League), a six-year-old organization, which holds a one vote majority of the Council's 21 votes.
Krueger's appearance here will be the first visit by a Socialist in Lawrence since the campaign of 1936, when Norman Thomas addressed an audience in South park. His stop here is being financed by a drive for funds among interested faculty members and people of Lawrence. A meeting of students and other persons interested in the Socialist candidates is planned for the first part of next week.
Politics shift into high tomorrow with the first business meeting of the Men's Student Council scheduled for 8 o'clock in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building. On the docket for consideration are the M.S.C. budget, housing appropriations and the report of the parking committee;
Two new members will be sworn in: George Nafe, e'41, newly appointed Pachacamae member who takes the place vacated by George Rippey; and a member to be chosen tonight by the P.S.G.L. senate to replace Don Ebling, '40, who did not return to school this fall.
by the P.S.G.L. Senate which holds its first meeting' of the year tonight at 10:30.
Among the 21 M.S.C. members are the president and a representative-at-large, who is the defeated presidential candidate, and 19 representatives from allotred districts. All 21 were elected last spring in the general election. Eight representatives are chosen from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences; four from the School of Engineering and Architecture; four more are elected from the combined poll of the Schools of Business, Fine Arts, Pharmacy, and Education, and three are chosen from the district including the Graduate School and the schools of Law and Medicine.
The function of the Men's Student Council with the W.S.G.A. is to exercise the authority provided for student government here on the campus.
To Open New Medical Clinic Tomorrow
Kansas City, Sept. 28-(UP)-The new $225,000 clinic building of the University of Kansas hospital in Kansas City has been completed, and will be ready to receive patients Monday. The clinic is the last building of a 5-year building project, costing nearly one million dollars.
It replaces the old "barracks" built in 1924 as a temporary structure to serve until a fireproof building could be built. In 1936 a shell of the new clinic was built from a private gift fund. This shell stood idle three years because there was no appropriation with which to buy furnishings and complete the interior. Last year the state legislature set aside $40,000 for completion of the clinic.
(continued to page eight)
The new building is of red brick, four stories high, 200 feet long and 45 feet wide. It is situated on the east side of the quadrangle formed by the connected buildings constitut-

The Battle of London crashed on. German night-raiders came over the great British metropolis Saturday night as they have each night for three weeks. Britain remained confident as ever of their ability to give blow for blow whatever the Germans attempted.
War popped on the world-wide diplomatic front Saturday night with hard blows created by Great Britain and Germany in the three-week-old air battle of London.

More study followed these engagements, this time in Munich, Germany, where they spent six months, in 1933.
Within a week after their return to the United States Mr. and Mrs. Wilkins were engaged by the Shubert Theatre Corporation of New York, for whom they sang in operetta productions for the next four years, appearing in all the large cities of the East and Middle-west. They also played for two summer seasons at the St. Louis Municipal Opera where they appeared in some 20 different productions.
Two years of concert appearances in the Southeast followed. While in New York in the spring of 1835, Mr. Wilkins sang for Dean Swarthout and that fall came to Lawrence to live.
The training and professional experience of the singers have been wide and almost parallel. Both were graduated from Cornell University where their vocal study began. Later they studied in Paris. Mrs. Wilkins attended the Schola Cantorum in Paris, famous school founded by the pupils of Cesar Franck, and won a Diplome de Chant, the first American to receive diploma in singing from that school. Mr. Wilkins also studied in Paris, where the couple were married. They later went to Milano, Italy, living there for three years, studying the Italian operatic repertoire and singing many performances of opera.
Mr. and Mrs. Wilkins will be accompanied by Miss Winifred Hill.
Sour Owl Dummy To K.C.
Students who want to see if the Sour Owl will regain its "rugged" name or will remain a Sunday school journal won't have much longer to wait.
Editor Reggie Buxton, c'41, took the finished product—finished but for the printing—to Kansas City yesterday. If weather conditions remain good and Buxton ever gets back the magazine should be on sale here in the next few days. It is printed on an offset press and damp weather could hold up the process.
Besides the gossip, stories, and columns which Buxton says are "strictly high fidelity," the Owl is right useful with a date directory, which gives the low-down on all the pledges. Buxton claims that no library should be without this evaluation. He says he will keep one copy himself.
fleeting the Foreign Office opinion, said that the American State Department has so "bungled its affairs" that it had made an enemy of Japan, and "brought the war perilously close to the Pacific Ocean."
In answer to teh possibility that Japan might enter the war on the side of her new Axis partners Britain warned that she is "steeled in war experience and in a different mood from a year ago."
Too, Latin America feared last night that Japan's alliance would force the United States into war, and that South America would be the victor's prize.
The newspaper Nocias Graficas, of Buenos Aires said: "The United States cannot stop aiding Britain, so things will continue their course. Thus, the war appears about to extend over the entire world."
Lakeview Lions Club Scans Squad Pictures
Technicolor pictures of the Jayhawker eleven in action, with particular plays filmed in slow motion, were viewed by the Lakeview Lions club at their last meeting. Vic Hurt, assistant football coach, explained the plays in the films which were taken during last season. Pictures of the Missouri and Nebraska games, and scenes from the homecoming parade in 1938, were shown after which Hurt spoke on the prospects for the 1940 season.
Beauty, pep, and a pair of leather lungs are the necessary requirements for becoming one of the University's 1940 model cheerleaders. New to the campus this year is the pulchritude angle, which will be gained with the addition of girls to the staff of bellowers.

Emphasis will be placed on showmanship this year, as well as vocal ability. More acrobatics will be evident under the new set-up.

Miss Meguiar Issues Call to all Forgotten Women---the Graduates
Everyone has heard of the forgotten man, but Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, is starting a movement for forgotten women.
There are about 100 women in the Lawrence vicinity, Miss Meguiar says, who have been graduated from different universities and have no way of meeting each other. So she is advocating a club to do something about $ ^{*} $ this difficulty it was announced by L N
With this in mind Miss Meguiar has sent a personal invitation to these women, making the initial move in the club's foundation.
"It has been suggested that a club be organized for graduate women," Miss Meguiar said, "so that they might become better acquainted with others having similar interests and training. I am asking all graduate women who would like to belong to such an organization to come to room 220 Frank Strong hall at 7 o'clock Tuesday night."
The first meeting of the Press club is to be held at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday, in the journalism building.

Play Props Drive Don Near Nuts
On the stage of Fraser Theater ae now being built:
a victoria Luggy
a garbage truck
a taxicab
All are necessary stage props for the play "White Wings", first Dramatic club production of the season now in the process of being cast. Don Dixon, speech department instructor, is in charge of building these odd conveyances.
The first day of tryouts last Friday started Prof Allen Crafton, speech department head and director of the play, on the annual search for talent. With a cast of sixteen, Director Crafton urges students interested in the play to try out. Any student, he said, is eligible for participation in Hill stage productions.
Tryouts will continue Monday afternoon as three-thirty on the stage of the little theater in the basement of Green hall. It is probable that rehearsals on "White Wings" will begin Monday evening, in preparation for opening night the last week in October.
At the same time "White Wings" is being cast, the group of about 10 actors needed for the cast of the second play will be partially selected. The second performance will be "Bertha the Sewing Machine Girl", one of the best known plays from the list of tear-jerking melodrama. This play was given here some years ago with marked success.
Stage manager, Don Dixon, will have his hands full with these two plays. For besides the conveyances needed for "White Wings", a locomotive puffing real smoke will be used in "Bertha." The train is used for that famous scene where heroine, Bertha is tied to the rails of the oncoming limited by the dastardly villain.

Kansas May Have Trouble Subduing Drake's Bulldogs . . . Montana State Plays . Three Games in Seven Days . . Gwinn Henry Watches Iowa State Lose to Denver . . Baseball Notes.
Those Drake Bulldogs who stem-
rollerled Montana State at Des
Moines Friday night by a score of 56
to 0 will be the parties of the second
part when the Kansas Jayhawks open
their home football schedule in Mem-
orial Stadium Oct. 12.
Drake may not be quite as good as Friday's score would seem to indicate since Montana State was playing its third game in seven days. But it's a safe bet that the team which conquered Kansas 12 to 6 last year will give the Jayhawks plenty of trouble again a week from Saturday.
Among those in the stands when Denver university defeated Iowa State 14 to 7 at Denver Friday night was Jayhawk Coach Gwinn Henry. Larry Owens, a sophomore who'll bear plenty of watching, scored the lone Cyclone touchdown.
Baseball Notes . . . Our personal nomination for big league "rookie of the year" is Ernie "Tiny" Bonham, giant pitching sensation of the New York Yankees, who almost single-handed hurled the Yanks into another pennant by winning eight games after he was recalled from the Kansas City Blues in August . . . Johnny Mize, St. Louis Cardinal slugger, established a new record for a St. Louis player Friday against the Chicago Cubs when he blasted his forty-third home run of the season into the upper decks of Sportsman's Park.
Altman Gets Rib Injury In Scrimmage
Old Man Injury, who thus far this season had refrained from haunting the Jayhawk team, scrawled the name of Harlan Altman on the hospital list yesterday afternoon as members of the Kansas eleven engaged each other in practice scrimmage.
Altman, sophomore quarterback who had impressed Jayhawk fans in early drills, received injuries in his ribs, the extent of which may not be determined for several days. Immediately following Altman's injury, it was believed that the Wellington athlete's ribs were broken.
However, x-rays taken at the hospital early last night failed to reveal a fracture.
Christman Passes For Three Counters
Columbia, Mo., Sept. 28—(UP)—The University of Missouri Tigers, champions of the Big Six, started their football season here today with a scoring outburst against St. Louis University that brought them a 40-26 victory.
The Tigers scored in every period and St. Louis got touchdowns in all but the first quarter. Paul Christman, the passing sensation of last year, still retained his pitching form and threw three touchdown passes. ___
Bill Cunningham, big Missouri fullback, showed power in cracking the line, particularly in the first period when he carried the ball from Missouri territory to the St. Louis goal for the first touchdown.
Kansan State 21, Emporia 16
Manhattan, Kansas, Sept. 28—(UP)—The Kansas State Wildcats pulled their game out of the fire in the final minutes today and defeated Emporia State Teachers 21 to 16. The small, fast backs from Emporia scored first and were ahead of the Big Six conference eleven most of the afternoon A fumble four minutes before the end of the game set up the final touchdown and enabled Kansas State to win.
The game might have ended with the visitors on the long end of a 16 to 14 score had they not tried to run with the ball after State had kicked over he goal line. On the third, Keith Caywood fumbled and Bernie Weiner recovered for Kansas State on the four yard line. Art Kirk made the winning touchdown when he went over from the one foot line.
Holy Cross 34, Providence 6
Holy Cross 34, Providence 6 Worcester, Mass., Sept. 28—(UP) —Holy Cross, one of the East's best teams last year, opened its season today with an easy 34 to 6 victory over Providence college.

Freshman Frolic Was Formerly Y. W. Mixer
Just two weeks before the 1940 version of the Freshman Frolic, and even the least enlightened freshman knows that Tommy Dorsey is playing, that the tariff is two dollars a copy, that it's an all-University party, and that there will be a limit of 700 tickets sold. But few persons know how long all this has been going on, or why.
For instance, what is now an all-University, four-hour dance, featuring the music of one of the country's best-known bands, was once a mixer for freshman women staged and sponsored by the Y.W.C.A. In fact, for several years there were two Freshman Frolics each year: one the Y.W.'s treat for its "little sisters," and the other, the forerunner of the present-day party—a get-together for freshmen where it was very possible that in addition to dancing, there would be speeches and refreshments.
A Class Party in 1917
As a class party the Frolic had its beginning in 1917, and by 1919 it had progressed ambitiously to a point where the managers spoke of it as, "equal either to the Junior Prom or the Sophomore Hop," with tin pandemonium furnished by 'Chuck Shofstall and His Five Demon Purveyors of Jazz."
The following year, the party again became a mixer, entirely for the first-year students, and Chairman Robert Smith was quoted thus:
"Yes, we intend to dance, but we do not want to make dancing a feature of the evening. There are so many of the first-year students who do not dance that we have prepared a balanced program which will appeal to everyone."
In the spring of the same school year, the class members must have decided that a little legal piracy was necessary to erase the red ink in the account book, so they held a Frolic with an open invitation to University students who had shekels for tickets. In a valiant attempt to make net profit approach gross receipts, or merely because it was being done that season, the class members proudly displayed calloused knees after polishing the gymnasium floor for the event.
In the school year '21, the party was postponed because "the dress rehearsal for the K.U. Frolics had been scheduled for the same time and place." In '22 they had a swell time, but, because there were no refreshments served, "half of the crowd left at 12:30 to get something to eat." Back to the Y.W.C.A.
Then for two years, the class shared the name with the Y.W.C.A., and with the resultant confusion, the freshman class had reason—good reason—for its collective bewildered look. After that the Y.W. decided to forego any claim it had on the name, and out of the lifting fog the present party emerged.
The first "name-band," at the time of its engagement here, was that of Red Nichols in 1933, when the red-haired maestro collaborated with the managers in a publicity stunt whereby the first couple whose principals were redheads were admitted free. Since then the Frolic has been changed almost as slightly as automotive engineers have changed car models in the same years.
Miss Cranmer Improves
Mary Ellen Crammer, c43, who has been in Watkins Memorial hospital since school opened, is somewhat improved, Dr. R. I. Canuteson announced today.
Extensive Faculty Recreation Program
An extensive recreational program is on tap for faculty members. Plans have been made for badminton, aerial dart, and volleyball competition.
Robinson gymnasium has been reserved for faculty use on Wednesday and Friday afternoons between 4:15 and 6 o'clock. Those interested in badminton and aerial darts are urged to appear at 4:15. Volleyball is slated for 5 o'clock. Swimming, wrestling, fencing, and handball may also be arranged for the above hours.
Stan. Stauffer To Be Kansan Board, Chairman
Stanley Stauffer, c'42, was named chairman of the Kansan board, at the group's first meeting of the school year.
The board also considered a proposal to invite for membership on the board a representative from each of the eight schools of the University, in order to give the schools a voice in the Kansan's policies.
Thumbnail Sketches Of Yearling Squad
DWAYNE ADAMS, end candidate on the frosh, hails from Cullison where he lettered four years in football, two at center and two at end. Adams is 18 years old, 6 feet, 1 inch in height, and tips the scales at 170 pounds. He also participated in basketball, track, and baseball.
FRANK BAKER comes well recommended from Phillips. He carries a 230-pound chassis at his tackle post. He's 19 and 5-8 in height. He is slated for a regular berth on the frosh. Coach Bill Replogle is counting on him to smear a few varsity plays.
BOB BRIENT is a genuine Easterner from Olney high in Philadelphia. He plays left half. He's 19, weighs 172 pounds, and is 5 feet, 10 inches in height. He also hurled the shot and discus in high school.
CLEVE BOLTON is a halfback from Geneseo. He's 18, weighs 184 pounds, and is 5 feet, 10 inches in height. He received all-star honors while zipping through his opponents in high school and lettered four years in both football and basketball. Bill Hargiss might also look into his track abilities. He tossed the shot 49 feet, 10 inches, last season.

Still Two Men For Each Woman On the Campus
Men students outnumber women at the University this year by the usual 2 to 1 ratio, a break-down in enrollment figures released from the registrar's office reveal a total of 2,973 men and 1,419 women are enrolled at the present time, creating a masculine majority of 1,554.
The total 1940 enrollment, as announced earlier, thus remains at 4,329, a decrease of 253 from the 1939 figure. Included in the decrease is a 152 loss in men and a 101 decline in women students.

The Kansan Comments -- EDITORIALS LETTERS PATTER
(Editor's note: The Kansan feels that the following article, written by Prof. Raymond Wheeler, chairman of the department of psychology, is of significance for the student reader. From time to time during the year, The Kansan will print editorials and articles written by faculty members in the attempt to widen the scope of these pages.)
Toward Democracy
Anybody who entertains this idea is simply ignorant of history. It so happens that those times in history when socialism and communism have been at their peak have also been times of dictatorships, tyranny, persecution of minorities, inquisitions. In short, from the standpoint of liberalism—defined in its true historical sense—as freedom of the individual, these have been the worst periods of history. They have always been periods of regimentation, lack of freedom of the press, lack of freedom in religion, and either a relimitation or an out-and-out cancellation of the franchise. In other words, communism and socialism are synonymous in history with absolutism in government. They go together. They belong to the pattern that has so often been repudiated by mankind, namely "The Divine Right of Kings"—only the modern version is "Divine Right of the State or Dictators, or of the political party (frequently a minority), that happens to be in power."
I seems to be a popular conception that liberalism in government, or liberalism in the economic and political world, is that condition which furnishes to the individual a certainty of employment and a certainty that in his old age the state will take care of him. This popular concept of liberalism seems also to conclude that capitalism is obsolete, and that the only decent people in the world are the ignorant proletarians. In other words, liberalism seems to be synonymous with a distrustship of the proletarians.
Historically, then, socialism and communism have never been associated with great liberal movements, but with the reverse—the reactionary, decadent, and despotic. Hitler and Stalin and Mussolini are living modernistic forms of such men as Louis XIV, Tammerlain, James II, Charles I, Richelieau, and so on back to the Greek and Roman dictators. Their periods of rule belong to the same place in a repeating phase of political history.
This is something to think about. It helps one to understand what is happening now and what the attitude should be in a college community today. Despotic epochs in history have always been associated with epochs of complacency. Lack of loyalty on the one hand, and fanaticism of the other, go together. They are like depression and schizophrenia in the individual on one hand, and manic phases of behavior on the other. Both conditions are signs of instability, decline and weakness; both presage a coming collapse. There is no need, therefore, of worrying especially about long time subordination to fascism and communistic dictators, nor need there be fear of a permanent world collapse by international war.
Just how long this war will last we cannot tell. But the appearance of communism and dictators is alone sufficient to justify the expectation that, in the not too distant future, governments will be liberalized in the direction of democracy, a broadening and an extension of the franchise once more. Down through history such trends have always been aspects of civil war eras; but, bad as it is, civil war is better than international war, for at such times a nation will leave its neighbors in peace.
Many people make the mistake of clamoring for reform, thinking it is a communistic or socialist state that they want. This is especially true of the laboring classes, and of idealistic youth. It is not communism or socialism they want. It is more participation rather than less participation in the political and social order.
But history shows that this can be achieved only by one method—the democratic way. The minute a society surrenders its franchise to a single party, or to a dictator, with the intent of regulating state affairs for the equal benefit of all, the economic status of the country is gone, the rational debts pile up, freedom is curtailed. There is no such thing in human nature as giving a responsibility of the social welfare to the state without losing the sense of individual responsibility for that welfare. There is no such thing as allowing the state to take over the economy, the religion, the control of the people, without degenerating either into complete lethargy or complete fanaticism. This is a psychological law.
It will take a series of civil rebellions and reforms to
break up our present totalitarian states. These reforms are unquestionably due sometime in the near future, and it should be up to the youth of this country to use all of its moral, physical, and intellectual energy to advertise and promote a democratic movement—a democratic movement with teeth in it—if for no other reason than to give the downtrodden people of the world courage, and to give those people now fighting for the democratic principles courage.
Students should remember that lethargy and lack of patriotism at the present time is nothing more nor less than a symptom of a dying age during which democracy as well as totalitarian states have become decadent. But if they are to help along the process of transition to a better age they must show a willingness, and a desire, not only to think, but to act intelligently, to denounce fascism and communism both, and to help show the world that democracy is going to come out of the struggle stronger than ever.
When we have only one soldier or one man in uniform to fifteen millions dollars worth of property, it is not a sign that a democratic state has wisely leaned over backwards in the opposite direction from militarism, but that it, like France, has simply become decadent to the point of dangerous weakness in a world of realities. An army and navy, democratically assembled, and democratically run by a democratic government, is in no way a sign that we are becoming fascistic, or socialistically militarized. It all depends upon where one is, in history, whether militarism results in tyranny. We are not in that position now, because the militarism now at its peak in Europe is at the end, and not at the beginning, of the era of despotism.

DAGO RED by John Fante. The Viking Press, New York. 211 pages.
$2.50.
By the author of that charming piece Wait Until Spring, Bandini, Dago Red is as overflowing with the joy of living and vitality as the smooth Italian wine for which it is named. A series of some thirteen sketches make up the group which takes the Toscana family through a tumbling, vigorous existence as seen through the eyes of a growing son of that family. Each sketch is a gem in itself, with the whole unified by a sombre Latin manner. The author is the Clarence Day of the Latin quarter; the book is Life With Father with an Italian accent.
Father is a swashbuckling, at times hard drinking, man of changing mood, a bricklayer by profession. He first saw Maria Scarpi on the street. The wine flowed in his veins at the time. And so he followed her home. But ship ran in the house and locked the door. He promptly started serenading her in a loud baritone standing on the sidewalk and he didn't stop until Maria poked her head out of a second floor window. Then he promptly asked her to marry him, with a gaping crowd gathered in back of him.
Thus did father meet mother. Their children were born Jim, and Mike, and Tony, and the beautiful Clara. With the addition of Hugo, the dog, completing the picture of this Dago family who lived in Denver's Wop section. Jim, the storyteller, once beat up every kid in school who called him a wop. He got pretty good at fighting too, especially when his dad showed him how to deal out fists. Jim had the sultry emotions of his race, but he so wanted to be an American. Father had once lived in the Argentine, so Jim often gave that as the nationality of his dad. It was easy, as far as his mother was concerned. She was born in Denver.
From the pages of Dago Red, we learn what it means to be an Italian running away from the odor of ravioli and garlic. Little Jimmy so wanted to be a plain American.
There is humor aptly to be found in these pages. First communion for the author, and all that can be found for a blouse is a tremendous shirt of father's with sleeves cut down. On the Denver jail house walls probably remains the signature of the fourteen-year-old author, carved thereon the one time he was locked up: "Two-Gun Toscana, the Death Kid."
The cursing comes loud and often, mostly from father; and tears fall softly and often, mostly from mother; and the spankings come hard and often, mostly on the children. But here is great and binding love, with the passionate faith in God and this life which is the especial heritage of the Latin.
The unbending faith of the Catholic pervades all the author's life, except once for a period of two years. In that interim he was living with Claudia, a woman many years his senior, but interesting. There hadn't been any attendance at Mass for two years. Then one afternoon came the coastal earthquake. Jim and Claudia were caught in the building and barely escaped. In ages of green grass, the description of the tumbling building and people's reactions, supplies the rippling stream. As neat a bit writing as the author displays anywhere or, rather, everywhere.
Some of the stories of Dago Red have been printed in the magazines before collection into this volume. But one story in particular that is new is the one called A Wife for Dino Rossi, probably as amusing a bit of writing as it will be your pleasure to discover.
And so Dago Red ends with a lusty Hail Mary given with the knowledge that John Fante is now out in Hollywood and writing for the movies and doing all right by himself.-B.F.
ROCK CHALK TALK
By Geo. R. Sitterley
In the last publication of the Rock Chalk column we made some cracks about Mr. Willkie. Which was all right in our eyes, but some people got the notion that, just because the pressmen forgot to change the byline, Reggie Buxton had taken a back-handed swipe at his Republican cohorts. Now Buxton, perhaps that'll exonerate you, but we won't guarantee that the Young GOP's will have their arms open to receive you.
Absolutely the very first time that anyone invited us—in anything but a "making conversation" tone—to be sure to come to the open house —Alpha Chi,but we won't make the young woman a mark for public scorn by divulging her name —the only time that happened was when we were sewed up with the Kansas until all hours last night. She probably knew that we would be.
Roscoe Born, the incomparable reporter and managing editor of the Kansan, might very well have lost his public forever yesterday if it hadn't been for a much less journalism light. Ros, intent on having a dramatics story exactly correct, tried to make certain that he had the title of the play right—he finally had it, "The Birth of the Sewing Machine Girl."
Comes the bewildering news that Carter Glass, Democrat and Senator from Va., has declared himself against a third term president but decidedly with Roosevelt, the "twotime" champion in the presidential fight and scornful defender of the crown against the upstart Willkie. As you may have noticed by our rambling — we're confused — very. We just can't seem to see through Glass.

W. P. Lambertson To Address Oebaters Here
The Honorable W. P. Lambertson, United States congressman from the first district in Kansas, has accepted an invitation to appear at the annual Debate Institute to be held on the campus Oct. 25 and 26, Lee Gemnell, of the University Extension Division, said last night.
Mr. Lambertson will appear in a discussion on the negative side of the high school debate question for this year, "Resolved: That the power of the federal government shall be increased," with Hilden Gibson, instructor in the department of political science, upholding the affirmative side of the question. It is estimated that attendance to the debate will exceed 200. The Debate Institute, which is a state-wide practice session for high school debaters and their coaches, is sponsored
and their coaches, is sponsored jointly by the University Extension Division and the department of speech and dramatic art.
The Debate Institute will also feature for the first time a Debaters Assembly program. Since the whole legislative division of governmental activity depends upon debate the high school debaters should have some actual experience with that field, it is believed. At the first session of the Legislative Assembly, composed of more than four debaters from each school, an election of a speaker and a clerk will be held. The speaker will appoint his various committees, and bills pertinent to the debate question will be introduced from the floor.
In the session to be held Saturday, after the committee has had an opportunity to accept, amend or reject the various bills, the delegates will hold open debate on the floor, concerning matters presented at the earlier session.
Still another big feature of this institute is the Saturday debate between the University of Kansas and University of Missouri teams on the high school question. Both this debate and the one between Lambertson and Gibson will be followed by an open forum so that the students may be privileged to ask questions about the details of the resolution.
Two rounds of practice debates will be offered in which any school may enter as many teams as they like. There will be no decisions and no awards. Present at each practice debate will be a critic judge, either a high school coach or a member of the University squad, who will offer criticisms and suggestions for instructional purposes.
Chem Club Holds Meeting
At the first weekly meeting of the chemical club Thursday evening, Dr. H. P. Cady, Dr. F. B. Dains, and Dr. R. Q. Brewster made introductory talks. Graduate students are expected to attend. Undergraduates and everyone interested in chemistry is welcome to come to all meetings. The club has no regular officers. Professor Elvira Weeks is in charge of programs.
Henry Scouts
Gwinn Henry, head football coach, was in Denver,Colo., yesterday scouting the Iowa State-Denver University game. The Kansas eleven will meet Iowa State at Ames next Saturday as a schedule opener.

Choir Needs Males
Clarence Peterson, e42, director of the Modern choir, was besieged with feminine voices yesterday when he held first tryouts for the choir.
Unable to fill all the male voice positions, Peterson called another tryout session for 4:30 Wednesday. Peterson said he hoped to select voices for the male section when the singers try out in the Memorial Union ballroom.
Wesleyan Choir Has 77 K. U. Students
Seventy-seven University of Kansas students will comprise this year's Wesleyan chorus choir of the First Methodist church, under the direction of Dorothy Enlow Miller, organist. In addition to a number of last year's members, several new and outstanding voices have been added at the group. The choir will participate in the services each Sunday morning. The "Sanctus and Benedictus," by Gounod with Ray T. Wright, Mary Elizabeth Bear, and Virginia Gsell as soloists, will be sung as the morning anthem today. Hortense Harris will sing "The Lord's Prayer" as the offertory solo.
Gaston Will Direct Lutheran Choir
E Thayer Gaston, Ph.D., assistant professor in education, has been selected to direct the music of the Trinity Lutheran church this year. He will be assisted by Marvin Wadley, fa'40, who will be in charge of the Junior choir. Barbara Brooke, fa'40, is the new church organist.
For his second season as director,
Mr. Gaston has outlined a program
intended to present the best church
music dating from the time of Bach
up to the present. In this morning's
service Mr. Gaston will direct the
choir in an anthem, "Blessed Are
the Pure In Heart," by Jones. Miss
Brooke's organ program will include;
prelude, "Cantilene," by Borodin; offertory,
"Adagio from First Organ Sonata," by Mendelssohn; and postlude, "Postlude in G." by Smart.
Community Chest Plans Launched
Tentative plans for a concerted drive for funds under Community Chest principles are taking shape rapidly, according to an announcement by Lawrence Chamber of Commerce president, Glenn Charlton, at a meeting of the Chamber's board of directors yesterday.
Charlton pledged support to the move by announcing that the Chamber of Commerce would effect a plan of active cooperation and aid in all phases of the work. Heads of all Lawrence civic and character-building organizations would form a guiding council under the plan.
Chairmanships of the various committees went to J. J. Lavery, organization; Walter Schaal, fund campaign; John Brand, constitution and by laws; and George Lowman, budgets. All committees announced work to be started immediately.
Injured In Touch Football Contest
The first serious injury of the intramural touch football season occurred yesterday afternoon when Bert Dickerson, a member of the Phi Kappa Psi eleven, received a broken arm during an intra-squad practice session. Dickerson was taken to Watkins Memorial hospital where officials said his condition was satisfactory.
Engineering School Dean To Attend Commemoration
Dean J. J. Jakowsky, and other staff members of the School of Engineering and Architecture, attended the celebration commemorating the discovery of oil in the El Dorado pool last Thursday. A monument at the site of Stapleton No. 1, original well in the pool, was unveiled as part of the celebration. Those accompanying Dean Jakowski to El Dorado were: Prof. R.C.Moore, state geologist and professor in the department; K.K.Landes, head of the K.U. department of geology; T.H. Marshall, professor of chemical engineering; Ernest Boyce, professor of civil engineering; J.I.Moore, assistant instructor of petroleum engineering; Ogden Jones, in charge of salt water laboratories in the department of geology; and Dr.E.A. Stephenson, head of the department of petroleum engineering.
Francis Scott Key was not known as the author of the Star Spangled Banner until several months after it appeared.

KFKU To Bow For 16th Year Tomorrow
KFKU will open its sixteenth year of broadcast tomorrow at 6 p.m. with a special musical broadcast. Because of the world baseball series the first part of the week, KFKU will not utilize its regular afternoon period. Starting Monday, Oct. 7, however, the regular broadcasting schedule will be 3 to 3:30 in the afternoon and 6 to 6:30 in the evening with a University of Kansas Round Table every Thursday from 9:30 to 10 p.m.
Miss Mildred Seaman, program director for KFKU, has announced a widely varied educational program for the University station this year. For the first time programs are being directed to the classroom in cooperation with the Lawrence Public Schools. These will be in the form of two weekly programs of stories, one directed to the primary grade children and one to the intermediate. Stories will be told by faculty members from the Lawrence public schools and the University of Kansas. The agenda for this program is being worked out in cooperation with a special advisory committee.
Book Club Program
The English department will sponsor a program called "The Book Club Program," to be presented regularly on Tuesday at 3:15 p.m.-the time that many Kansas book clubs are actually in session so that these programs may be used as a basis for the club discussions. The program will be presented by different faculty members under the direction of Professor John E. Hankins.
One of the most popular programs for the past year which is to continue is "Your Health," a series of discussions about health problems which confront the individual and the community and some important problems concerning preventive medicine. The discussions will be heard regularly on Monday evenings at 6. They are presented in cooperation with the University of Kansas School of Medicine under the direction of Dr. Hugh Dwyer and the American Medical Association. What the Editors Say.
What the Editors Say
Another new program."What the Editors Say"—has been planned, to consist of editorials on timely topics taken from some of the outstanding newspapers in the country.
