Lewis Calls Mine Workers Off Job Again
New York, Dec. 1. (U.P.) John L. Lewis today put his 400,000 soft coal miners back on a three-day work week, effective Dec. 5.
Mr. Lewis issued a brief announcement after meeting with his top Union Policy committee. He said the coal strike which began at midnight will be in full effect until Monday when the miners will resume work on a three-day week basis.
The three days the miners will work each week are Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. This was almost the same way by which Lewis put his miners on a three-day week earlier this year.
He said that when the contracts were signed the three-day week schedule would end and the miners would work as many hours per week as the new contracts called for.
At the same time, Mr. Lewis authorized all union officers to negotiate new contracts "with any or all individual coal companies."
At that time Mr. Lewis said a shorter work week would stabilize the coal industry and provide jobs for all the miners. Mr. Lewis outlined his plans for a shorter work week at the past year's convention of the United Mine Workers. He told the convention this year that if there are only three days' work in this industry we will all have three days' work . . . if we are going to starve in this industry at any time we will just all starve together.
The miners went on strike at midnight after Mr. Lewis failed to get any kind of a new contract commitment from any of the coal operators. He had been reluctant to call his men out on strike again because of the Christmas season and because his men already have lost about $1,200 in wages each so far this year.
Entries should be left at the pharmacy office, 215 Bailey Chemical laboratories before 4 p. m. Friday,
Dec. 16.
Steel company officials said the coal stoppage will not affect their operations. Most of the big companies had as much as two-months supply of coal on hand.
As the "cat eye" shifts reported by the big Pennsylvania mines for work last night, the miners waited for word that the truce that ended a 52-day strike last Nov. 9 had been extended.
The beginning of a new walkout opened the way for government intervention. President Truman, now on vacation at Key West, Fla., indicated reluctance to use the injunction provisions of the Taft-Hartley labor law, that could impose an 80-day peace period. But he said he will act if a national emergency develops.
Anyone in the University is
eligible to enter the contest. Students may see Jarecke for ideas.
Pharmacy Group To Give $10 Prize
A $10 prize will be given the student who submits the best design for a key which will be awarded the graduating senior who has done the most during the school year to advance pharmacy as a profession.
The contest is sponsored by the American Pharmaceutical association, said Wesley R. Jarecke, president.
The design should be in black and white and may be any size. It should be symbolic of pharmacy and K. U. symbols such as the Rx or the mortar and pestle have been suggested.
Student Recital Will Be Today
String ensemble, voice, and piano numbers will be presented at the student recital of the School of Fine Arts at 3 p.m. today in Strong auditorium.
"Ces Airs Joyeux" (Debussy), by Colin Campbell, tenor; "Waltzes, Op. 39" (Brahms), by Dorothy Shoup, piano; the "Allegro Moderato" of "Piano Quartet in G Minor, Op. 25" (Brahms), by Isabel Gaddis, violin; Donald Stewart, viola; Shirley Foster, cello; and Frank White, piano.
The program will be as follows:
KU Orchestra Plans Concert

A feature of the program will be the Third symphony of Johann Brahms, completing a four-year plan by Professor Wiley to perform the four great symphonies of Brahms. The First, Second, and Fourth symphonies by the 19th century German composer have been presented in the last three years.
Two soloists will appear on the program. Willard Straight, fine arts junior, will play Cesar Franke's "Variations Symphoniques" for piano and orchestra. James Selley educates children in "Codis" for Trumpet and Orchestral by Joseph Haydn. Sellards plays first trumpet in the orchestra.
Opening the program will be a group of waltzes from "Der Rosen-kavalier" by the late Richard Strauss. Strauss, prominent in the musical world for 60 years, died last month.
300 Students Take Exam
More than 300 students took the preliminary Western Civilization examination Wednesday night, Mrs Louise Cochran, Western Civilization instructor, said today.
Another 300 students are expected to take the test today, which will be given a 7:30 p.m. in 426 Lindley hall. Students need to bring only pen or pencils to the examination
"The examination given last night went off very smoothly. Mrs. Cocken said, "he test will be made by the student" Western Civilization Patron. At the student's next meeting with his proctor the student will be told how his test compares with that of the other 600 students who took the examination.
Vishinsky Blasts At West Again On Peace Plans
Flushing, N.Y., Dec. 1—U(P.)—Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Y. Vishinsky prepared to fire another blast at the West today as the United Nations General Assembly reached a vote on rival Eastern and Western "peace plans."
western peace ideals.
The veteran of international word battles asked permission to take the speakers' stand once more to answer criticisms of Soviet policy hurled by diplomats during the unexpectedly verbose two-day debate on the plans for peace.
Mr. Vishinsky lectured the assembly for 85 minutes November 29 without evidence that he had succeeded in changing the position of one delegation among the countries which voted, 53 to 5, in the assembly's political committee, to approve the rival plan offered by the United States and Britain.
The Western measure calls for reaffirmation of 12 cardinal points of the U.N. charter, which it acclaims as "the most solitary pact of peace in history." In apporving it, the 59-country political committee voted down a Soviet resolution which condemns the United States and Britain as warmongers then asks them to join the rest of the Big Five in a peace pact.
Other U.N. developments included special political committee meeting at Lake Success, which was expected to give almost unanimous approval to a resolution co-sponsored by the United States, Britain, France and Turkey, which would set up the $55 million W.P.A. type work relief program recommended by the Near East economic survey mission for an estimated $62,000 Arab refugees from the Palestine war.
Also a 17-nation subcommittee was slated to continue its efforts at Lake Success to draft an overall proposal for the future of Jerusalem from divergent plans proposed in the special political committee.

Malotts To Circle Globe
WEATHER
"We've been too busy to give it much thought," the chancellor said during the work-loaded hours preceding his departure. "Christmas seems a long way off."
Daytime temperatures held slightly under yesterday's highs, especially in the North and West. Minimums tonight are due to be below freezing throughout the state.
Flying from Kansas City, Mo
Chancellor Malott will spend Christmas eve in Lahore, Pakistan, as a representative of the Association of American Universities and the American Institute of Pacific Relations at a conference which will develop ways to strengthen Indian-American relations. Most of the conference will be held in New Delhi, India.
Kansas--Cooler air moved into Kansas today along with December.
In a land where Christmas is not widely observed Chancellor and Mrs. Deane W. Malott, who will begin a westward world circulaing trip to India today, hope to celebrate the holiday in the traditional manner.
After the New Delhi conference, which lasts from Monday Dec. 12 to Thursday Dec. 22, Chancellor and Mrs. Malott will return to New York on Friday, Dec. 30. The return trip will take them through the Middle East, North Africa and Europe.
shortly after 11 p.m. today, the Malotts will stop for a two-day visit with friends in Honolulu, Hawaii. At a later stop in Tokyo, Japan, Chancellor Malott hopes to visit Col. John Alfrey, formerly a professor of military science at the University, who is now stationed near Tokyo.
Jayhawker Covers Available Friday
Jayhawker magazine covers may be picked up Friday in the Jayhawker office in the Union.
All subscribers who have not yet called for the first edition of the magazine are urged to do so when they get the cover.
Sunflower Has 180 Vacancies
The overcrowded housing situation around Lawrence has been partially relieved. Sunflower village has 180 vacant family units available for veterans, John LaMonica, village housing director, announced recently.
"We have vacant, 13 two-bedroom units, 32 one-bedroom units, and 135 no-bedroom units." Mr. LaMonica said. "The no-bedroom units have a couch in the living room which can be converted into a bed."
All of the three-bedroom units are filled in the 1391-unit federal housing project. Apartment are rented unfurnished and furnished. Furniture may be rented at a cost from $3.50 monthly in the smaller units to $8 monthly in the larger units.
The rent for each unit is adjusted to the veteran's income if it is below a certain level. As an example, a three-bedroom unit is rated at $39 a month. If a family of five is living on an income of $120 a month, the monthly rent of that unit will be lowered to the minimum of $25 a month. Mr. LaMonica explained.
Veterans with outside incomes usually must pay the "economic level" or maximum rent. It is $29 a month for the no-bedroom unit. All utilities, including coal, are furnished free. A monthly fee of $1 is made if the family has a refrigerator.
Mr. LaMonica said that checks totaling $50,128.13 will be mailed to state and local government agencies this year as payments "in lieu of taxes" by the housing project. Since federal property cannot be taxed, the payments are made voluntarily by the federal government to meet its share of local taxes and not be in unfair competition with private landlords.
Almost half of the money will go to the DeSoto Common school district in the amount of $22,796.67. The remaining will go to: Johnson county, $12,890.01; Lexington township, $6,581.67; state of Kansas, $2,-702.23; DeSoto Rural High School district No. 3, $4,491.31; and DeSoto Cemetery district, $666.24.
Greek Council Acts On Restrictions
A resolution recommending that serious thought be given to the possible removal of all racial or religious restrictions on fraternity membership from fraternity constitutions was passed recently by the graduate session of the National Inter-Fraternity conference. Robert Pettt, College senior, and Dale Hallett, College junior, K.U. representatives to the conference, announced this today.
The undergraduate session, Petitt said, was reluctant to discuss the problem. A motion was made for the ban but died for lack of a second.
The graduate session's recommendation passed with 38 in favor, 3 against, and 19 abstaining. The graduate session is composed of the alumni officers of national fraternities.
"We stayed away from the argument," Petitt said. "There is no problem of that sort at K.U. Everybody is happy as they are here, at least on the surface."
Students Meet With Former Principals Today
How best to correlate high school training and freshman university requirements was discussed today by 600 freshman students and their former high school principals from 77 Kansas high schools.
The one-day conferences were held in class rooms in various buildings on the campus. After talking with the freshman students, the principals will give recommendations to the University for improving school life and procedures. Only principals whose schools supplied three or more freshman students to the University attended the conference.
Walter Cooper, principal of East High school, Wichita, interviewed 47 of his former students. He said, "The conferences have a lot of possibilities. The students will give a lot more frank opinions to us than they would to University teachers, because they know us better."
Former Wichita high school student Keith A. Maclvor, engineering freshman, stated, "I enjoyed meeting the principal again and I definitely feel freer to make suggestions to him than I do to the professors."
Howard D. McEachen, principal of Shawnee Mission High school, Merriam, Kan. believes that "the suggestions will be worthwhile and the conferences are very interesting."
Anne Jackson, College freshman and Mr. McEachen's former student remarked, "I think they are very helpful, a lot of students may have serious gipses."
E. B. Weaver, principal of ropeka High school, Topeka, declared,
"From the high school point of view,
this is one of the best things the
University has done in a long time."
Students expressed the feeling that it was an advantage to enter the University from a large high school. Complaints were heard that not enough English theme writing instruction was offered in high school training. A need for training in better study habits was also noted by the students.
The conference is expected to benefit both the University and the high schools, Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, explained. The high school administrators will send evaluated reports of the conferences to the University after they return to their schools.
Chancellor Deane W. Malot welcomed the principals at a luncheon today in the Union. Guided tours of the campus and visits to various classrooms filled in the remainder of the principals' day.
Even in the best days of past county clubs, there was not as much enthusiasm shown as at Wednesday's meetings, Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni association, said today about the county club program. He added that this is the best and most promising organization set-up the clubs ever had.
Ellsworth Praises County Club Work
Otis "Bud" Hill, chairman of the Statewide Activities commission, said, "One of the things that impressed me most was the response to sending Jayhawkers to high schools. Of the 59 counties which have turned in reports, they have ordered 270 Jayhawkers. Judging from the enthusiasm所晨 Wednesday, I feel that the county club program will be a great success."

Geltch Recital Has Well-Chosen Pieces
The faculty recital of Waldemar Gelth professor of violin was cordially received by an audience of 300 persons in Strong auditorium Monday.
By FAYE WILKINSON
Mozart's "Concerto in E Flat" was a technical vehicle for the soloist. In the group of four shorter numbers "The Butterfly" (Hubay) was particularly well done. Its lightness was an effective contrast to the sorbernade of "Serenade Melancholique" (Tschalkowsky) and "Stimmung" (Achron).
Professor Geltch, who is in his 28th year of teaching at the University, played a well-chosen program. He began with the "G Minor Sonata" by Tartini, 18th century Italian violinist and composer. The sonata is typical of the classical writing of that period. Professor Geltch played it with sincere interpretation and rich, energetic tone.
Mrs. Janet Turk, instructor in piano, provided a competent accompaniment.

Children's Books Reflect Spirit Of The Modern Age
Washington—(U.P.)—Thousands of children in the United States have become acquainted with old books. They celebrated National Childrens' Book week by reading many of the books their parents and grandparents once read.
Take one of the oldest—"The Gingerbread Boy."
The "Gingerbread Boy" has been rewritten so many times that it now has two endings. One has the little gingerbread boy breaking away from the bad old fox and "coming back to the waiting arms of the dear, little old lady," who put him in the hot oven in the first place. The other has the fox offering the gingerbread boy a lift across a river and finally eating him for dessert.
Some of the language of the modern kid books could stand a little editing. What city editor, for instance, would pass a sentence like the following from one of the "Gingerbread Bov" books?
"One day as the little old lady was baking gingerbread, she said aloud, just to herself, you know, for the little old man was out in the garden. I think I will make a gingerbread boy."
Zowie! Rather hard for a small child to understand that construction.
Not long ago the Library of Congress got a collection of rare children's books. It's on tour of the country now. It contains no modern titles such as "Peter Rabbit," "Bambi," or "Mary Goes Shopping Alone."
in the old days the titles were quaint. They included such things as "Marmaduke Multiplies Merry Method of Making Minor Mathematicians"; "Multiplication Table Illustrated, 1816;" "The Happy Courtship, Merry Marriage;" "The Doleful Death of the Bridegroom, 1914;" "The Child's Grammar, Designed to Enable Ladies Who May Not Have Attended to the Subject Themselfes to Instruct Their Children, 1875;" and "The Life and Death of an Apple Pie, 1825."
Nothing about "Cinderella." or "Little Red Riding Hood" in those days. The "Once upon a time" pieces came much later.
Actually, the children's books another day have something to do with kid stuff we see now—a link at least. A booklet called "Children's Books of Yesterday" puts it this way: "The Beginning of children's literature came with the earliest retelling of 'Gesta Romanorum, or 'The Medieval Romances of Chivalry,' or 'Reynard the Fox' or 'Aesop's Fables,' and the like."
Mother Goose, the lovely myth that gave us all so many happy hours before slumbertime, can trace her ancestry to the early French. To the stories of Madame De Denlis.

Eighty Kansas county councils and U.N.E.S.C.O. organizations will send delegates to the state conference. Seven state committees of U.N.E.S.C.O. will furnish leaders for discussion groups. The committee will cover fields of human and social relations, cultural interchange, elementary, secondary, and adult education, educational reconstruction, and natural science and communications.
A new device in conference programs will be used during the first general meeting. It is the use of a sounding board" to give more persons a voice in plans, recommendations, and projects for Kansas U.N.E.S.C.O. groups. The "sounding board" is being set up because the group will be too large to permit general discussions with person addressing the meeting.
Keynote speakers at the conference include George V. Allen, recently-appointed ambassador to Yugoslavia; Milton S. Eisenhower, president of Kansas State college; Dr. Will Menninger of the Menninger foundation, Topeka; and M.

No Help For Indians
The Navajo and Hopi Indians are in desperate need, but we are inclined to agree with President Truman that the bill recently presented for his signature was not the bill to help them. His veto offers a chance for further study and enactment of a better bill by the next session. This requires immediate action by all real friends of the Indians.
The long-range proposals of the $88 million bill were well drawn. They provided for road building, health, education, and other good works over a 10 year period. But the senate and house conferees, trying to reconcile the two versions of the measure, tacked on two riders that were dangerous. One piece of added legislation would have subjected water rights and other rights on the reservations to control by the redmen's white neighbors. Another addition would have impaired the social security rights of the Indians, requiring the federal government to pay a special subsidy (in addition to the regular contribution) to Arizona, New Mexico and Utah, within whose borders most of the Navajos and Hopis live. The states would have won tighter authority over the Indians, along with less accountability for their welfare.
Admittedly, Indians are primarily the moral and financial responsibility of the federal government. But they are not chattels, to be shoved back and forth without regard to their rights and needs. They are not a large minority as minority groups are recorded on the world's map, but Americans interested in human rights and fundamental freedoms for minorities in far-away places had better pay a little more attention to such precious possessions for the ancient and honorable minority in our midst.

- Letters To The Editor -
Dear Editor:
The ASC
I'm sorry for the leaders of the A. S. C. . . . These young men, swelled with their own opinions of self-importance, have done more to ruin their own names than any mud any opponent could sling at them. Most students laugh at their posturing and pouter-pigeon attitudes, but the handling of student funds not a laughing matter. . . .
The tragedy of the whole thing is that these young "leaders" think they are preparing themselves for politics and public office when they leave school. They think that sly, dishonest political maneuvering is the accepted thing, and that they must learn their fundamentals now. They are only partly right. .Crooked politicians sometimes survive and prosper on graft, but James Curley and Pendergast went to jail, and others have been turned out in disgrace.
The salary matter is only one incident. The Forensic league was recently given an appropriation of $120. This "deal" squeaked through only after President Friesen voted to break an 8 to 8 tie. . . Friesen is an active member of the Forensic league. . . This generous appropriation, in the light of others which the Council has denied, is clearly unethical, and the close vote indicates that the more honorable members of the Council opposed it. . .
The money is relatively unimportant. What these young men have done to themselves the countless enemies they have made climbing to their present positions and the harm they have done to their own reputations and to the reputations of the organizations they represent—these are the really sad results of immature, spoiled, selfish minds.

Study Of Book Of Isaiah Shows Changes In Bible
Open Daily 11 a.m.
Chicago—(U.P.)—Scholars have found "hundreds of differences" between the wording of the 2,000-year-old Book of Isaigh found in the Holy Land and the text of the King James version of the Bible, the Rev. John C. Trever said recently.
But one of the most significant findings he said, is that the basic message of the old writings has come down to us virtually intact.
A revised English Bible incorporating the changes will be published in 1952, the Rev. Trever said.
The Rev. Mr. Trever, head of the Bible department of the International Council on Religious Education, said that scholars of several countries have confirmed the authenticity of the scrolls.
Scholars have found only words and phrases changed in the old version, but nothing that changed the basic sense of the scriptures.
They hope to publish a translation of the old Isaiah text next April along with the text of the Book of Lamech believed to reveal details of the early life of Noah. The books were found in a Holy Land cave by a goat-herd boy early in 1947.
The Isaiah text should contribute to the background picture of Jesus' life and help make the Bible more meaningful to the average person, the Rev. Mr. Trever said. It has clarified the meaning of many passages of the Isaiah that we know today.
However, the Rev. Mr. Trever said disputes over whether the books of the bible are the actual "word of God" are still not settled and are not a factor in the present work.
The Isaiah scroll now under study was written down in about 125 B.C., long before the book was accepted by a council as "divinely inspired" for inclusion in the Old Testament about 90 A.D., he said.
Calvin Coolidge wrote a history of the United States in five hundred words.

SPOTLIGHT SPORTS
By RICHARD DILSAVER
What price glory?
After two years as reigning back in the Big Seven, Forrest Griffith has suddenly found himself dropped and dropped hard. Not one All-Big Seven team we've seen thus far has so much as put the jarring Jay-hawker on the second eleven. That after being selected to the all-conference team in the two seasons previous.
Did Griffith slow down that much?
We remain among the unconvinced.
Statistics show, and this will surprise many, that he had a better year at ground gaining than in 1948.
A year ago he carried 96 times for 368 yards. This season he tooted on 92 occasions for 394 yards.
Some will come up with the suggestion that there were more good Big Seven backs in 1949 than at any time since the war. Couple that to the facts that Griffith played with a team that was a "loser" in the conference, had less support in the line than in seasons past, and played with a "passing" ball club and you may uncover something that lends a little light to the matter.
Despite what Big Seven selectors have done, we are willing to wager that not everyone has forgotten the Lee's Summit Express. Come time for invitations to the Shrine bowls and we believe Mr. Forrest Griffith is going to be given a little more of the recognition he deserves.
With seating facilities what they are in the Big Seven basketball circle, some of the pressure will be removed this season by television. Until their new fieldhouse is completed, only 3,000 Kansas State students can watch their Wildcats in little Nichol's gym. Video sets in recreation centers on the campus and in the college auditorium are going to make it possible for a similar number of students to see the team in action.
In the painting of Washington Crossing the Delaware, a soldier is shown holding the American flag, though it had not been designed at that time.

Phi Delta Wins In'B'League
Phi Delta, Phi Chi, Delta Chi and Sigma Nu *turned in victories in Wednesday's intramural basketball games in the "B" league.
All games were a battle down to the final whistle.
Phi Delta Theta rolled in 21 points in the fourth quarter to down Lambda Chi Alpha 39 to 15. It was a fairly close game for the first three periods, but Phi Delt turned on the power to win going away.
Byron Wynn led the winners scoring with 11 points. John Luttrell took scoring honors for the Lambdas with two field goals and two free throws for six points.
Bill Rader dropped in a free throw with 50 seconds remaining to give Phi Chi an 18 to 17 victory over Sigma Phi Epsilon in a fraternity "B" game.
It was a game of spurs. Sig Ep broke a 6 to halftime tie to take a 12 to 6 lead, but went completely cold while Phi Chi scored 11 straight points. Trailing 12 to 17 with three minutes remaining, the Sig Ep battled to a tie, before losing on Rader's charity toss. Paul Enrie paced the medies with four long field goals. Bob Pecchin scored five points for the losers.
Delta Chi defeated T.K.E. 20 to 14 in a fraternity "B" in a well-played battle. Scoring honors for the winners went to Harold Donley and Ken Henderson with four points apiece.
Sigma Nu downed Latin America "B" team 25 to 17 with very little trouble. Walter Hulen paced the winning cagers with six points.
Polio Hits Chicago Suburbs Harder Than In The City
Chicago—(U.P.) Suburbs generally are considered to be healthier places to live, but polio struck harder in the outlying districts of Chicago than in the metropolitan area this year.
Cook county's health director, Edward A. Pizzczek, said the polio rate was 30 cases per 100,000 persons in the suburbs, but only slightly more than 10 per 100,000 in the city.
The difference may be in the fact that suburbanites travel more, Mr. Piszczek said.

Michigan Is Guest Team Of Big Seven Cage Tourney
The 1949 Big Seven pre-season basketball tournament to be held in Kansas City's municipal auditorium from Dec.27 through Dec.30 promises to be the finest ever, according to R.E.Peters, executive secretary of the Big Seven conference.
The University of Michigan is the guest team for this year's tournament and will enter the meet with an excellent record. They won the Big Ten championship in 1948 and finished third in last year's race, he added.
In Michigan's last game of the 1948-49 season, they defeated the champion Illinois team by 15 points with underclassmen doing most of the damage. With the return of several key lettermen, Michigan will be a power in this year's Big Ten conference race and one of the favorites in the Kansas City tourney. They will represent their conference for the first time in the Big Seven tournament.
By the time the annual cage classic rolls around, most of the conference clubs will have undergone one or more severe non-conference tests and each club's relative strength will be better known.
The Jayhawkers, Kansas State, and Oklahoma will clash with the top cage clubs on eastern swings during December.
Students desiring tickets to the tournament should leave their orders with Earl Falkenstien, athletic business manager, as early as possible in order to receive choice seats for the tourney. Each school will receive a limited number of choice seats in a block so as to keep their supporters together.
The prices are $1.00, $2.00, $3.00,
tax included, for the night games
and for $1.00 for afternoon games.
If ordering tickets by mail, send
an additional 25 cents to the total
amount for mailing and insuring
tickets, to Clyde Baker, Municipal
Auditorium, Kansas City, Mo.
Tickets go on sale by mail today.
The Jayhawkers draw a tough assignment when they play the Kansas State Aggies in the first round. This contest will be played as the second game of a doubleheader on Tuesday, Dec. 27, starting at 9:30 p.m. The first game brings together last year's co-champion Oklahoma Sooners and Iowa State College.
On the following evening, Nebraska clashes with Colorado in the first game, with Missouri and Michigan battling it out in the second half of the twin bill. The four first round winners will tangle on the third night while the losing clubs battle it out in the loser's bracket in afternoon contests. The championship game will be at 9:30 p.m. Friday, Dec. 30.
Kansas will have seven non- conference games under their
belts before entering the tourney. These contests should help Kansas cage fans to get an idea on how Kansas will fare in the tourney. Four of these games will be severe tests for Coach "Phog" Allen's battling sophomore giants.
The Purdue Boilermakers visit Hoch auditorium for the Jayhawkers' home opener on Saturday, Dec. 10, in a contest that has the carmarks of a real scoring battle. Year after year, Purdue has ranked high in the Big Ten conference and this year's club is expected to be a power in that circuit.
Following the home opener against the Boilermakers, the Kansas cagers take to the road for a four-game eastern swing.
The first stop will be in Cincinnati to battle Cincinnati university, tenth ranking team in the nation last year, on Dec. 15. Two nights later, the Jayhawkers tangle with Duquesne, another toughie, in Pittsburgh.
On Dec. 20 in Boston Garden, Dr.
Allen's charges battle it out with the
Holy Cross Crusaders, probably the
top club on the East coast.
Holy Cross has another great cage club built around co-captain Bob Cousy, all-American forward and high scorer last year, and their other co-captain, Frank Offring, another high scoring forward. These two great offensive players give the Crusaders one of the best one-two scoring punches in college ranks.
The fourth road game finds Kansas playing Springfield College in Springfield, Mass., the cradle of basketball.
Should the tall Jayhawkers bring home victories over either Cincinnati or Holy Cross or possibly both, the Big Seven had better brace themselves for a rocky and rough season from Dr. Allen's young cagers.
Indians Use Live Oak To Mark Important Trail
Southport, N. C.—(U.P.)—A huge live oak at this river-mouth town is one of the few and rare relics of Indian trail-marking skill.
The giant oak, built when young and lashed to the ground, grows horizontally for several feet before towering vertically. Indians are believed to have trained the tree to mark important turns in their trails.
It is believed that comparatively few examples of these ancient road signs still exist.

Biological Survey To Study Prairie Chicken And Mussel
Dr. Eugene Raymond Hall, director of the Museum of Natura History, described two economic research projects that the Kansas Biological survey is conducting. One is of importance to Kansas sportsmen.
A two-year investigation is being made of the value of fresh water pearly mussels of Kansas to determine the practicability of a pearl button industry in Kansas. These large, edible clams are abundant along Kansas streams, but their economic value has been ignored. The effects of stream pollution by sewage and of stream sitlage by soil erosion upon mussels and other aquatic life is now being studied.
Robert Reese, graduate student of zoology is conducting the project under the direction of Dr. Arthur B. Leonard, professor of zoology. Within two years time they hope to formulate an economic plan for a pearl button industry on one or more major Kansas streams.
The three-year study of prairie chickens, a native game bird in Kansas, is being made by Maurice Baker, graduate student of zoology and is directed by Dr. Rollin Baker assistant professor of zoology
Reduction of available habitat for prairie chickens through modern agriculture and range development combined with increased hunting has reduced the prairie chicken population so that closed hunting seasons have been essential. Protection and favorable nesting season have created a comeback in some areas of southeastern Kansas. In other areas of the state the game birds have remained static or have become even more rare.
The biological project will determine the distribution, life habits, and factors responsible for the increase of the birds. Also the rela-
Chemical Engineers Hear Four Men
Four men from the Kansas City, Mo., chapter of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers told 40 members of the student chapter at the University about "The Transition from School to Job." Nov. 22.

Southern Gallantry Goes Even Into The Men's Room
Memphis—(U.P.) — A guard at a Shelby county public building reached a new high in Southern gallantry.
During repairs, the men's room was open, the women's wasn't. When an embarrassed woman approached, the elderly guard said:
"Tell you what, lady. I'll go into the men's room and chase 'em out, and then you can go in and I'll stand guard for you."

Soybean Car Paint Is Horses' Food
Omaha, Neb. — (U.P.) — "No objections at all," the farmer said when a family asked to use his pasture for a picnic ground.
"Just be sure to shut the gates," he cautioned.
When the family returned from their picnic lunch and a fishing trip, they found their car badly scratched, with the paint entirely gone from some areas.
They complained to the farmer about "kids."
"We have no kids," the farmer replied. "Sure you closed the gate?"
"We have no kids," the farmer replied. "Sure you closed the gate?" They admitted they might have slipped.
"Well, if you did," said the farmer, "it was the horses. They love that new car paint."
Apparently the paint contained soybean derivatives, that horses consider a delicacy.

Lack Of Larynx Doesn't Stop Persons From Talking- They Belch Words Now
New York—(U.P.)-Dr. James S. Greene likes to hear other people talk. Particularly his patients. That's his business-making other people talk.
But Dr. Greene's patients are unique. They are persons who have lost their larynx — and therefore their voice. Removal of the larynx, or voice box, sometimes is necessary as result of cancer.
Time was, years ago, that a person who underwent this operation, called a laryngectomy, was doomed to be mute for the rest of his life. Then came the development of an artificial larynx. It was an embarrassing contraption that included a rubber tube the patient inserted in a hole in his neck.
Today, however, persons who have lost their larynx can learn to speak without artificial aid, even if it is a baritone voice. Some are back on the job, as public speakers.
Warren L. Bassett, who at one time was managing editor of Editor and Publisher, a trade paper for the newspaperman, came down with cancer of the larynx about a year ago. He had the operation and then
went to Dr Greene to learn to speak all over again. Through his publicity the National Hospital for Speech Disorders, New York, has become a well-known address for those who must learn to talk again.
Dr. Greene explained that the patients are taught to speak by a method whereby air is drawn into the esophagus and then belched up. The technique produces a sound that is formed into words by the tongue and lips. No Artificial mechanical device is used and that's what pleases the patients.

United States Is Source Of Jokes In Great Britain
London—(U.P.) All you have to do in Britain today to be a successful comic is tell a joke about the socialist government or the United States.
The British always have been ready to laugh at their leaders but no government in its history has been the butt of so many gags on the stage, the screen, and even the nationalized radio as this one.
"Tm glad to be here," cracked Charlie Chester, British comic, from the stage of the Palladium Theater were Danny Kaye and other American stars frequently appear. "Of course, I wrote a letter to the American consul asking permission."
In radio there is reportedly some mild censorship to ensure that jokes about cabinet members or party leaders are funny and not vicious. But the wraps are off in the music halls.
The United States is getting a slight roasting as the home of the elusive dollar, which all Britons agree is the cause of all their trouble.
Having'dumped his audience in the aisles with that one Mr. Chester continued:
Other gags that have titilled Britons these days of economic crisis include:
"If the streets were paved with old, we'd need dollars to buy pickes."
Radio comic (in mock commender
style)—"1940 the days when
bruins stood alone—and oh how she
could stand a loan today."
Straight man charging on stage with the ancient battle cry;
Comic—"Everything else for ex-bort."
Then there is the story about Mr. Churchill arising in a bus to give his seat to Mrs. Attlee, wife of the prime minister.
"Thank you," says Mrs. Attlee.
"Don't mention it," murmurs Mr.
murchill, "I hope your husband will
do the same for me—very soon."
A west end comic drew a howl when he told his audience:
"I've just been listening to Churetnill's speech. He'd never get away with it—if Mr. Attie were alive," Comic Ted Ray discusses with his
Kansas May Have Ceramics Industry
There are great opportunities for booming ceramics industry in Kansas, a report of the state geological survey has discovered. The raw materials for ceramics—making brick, tile, and pottery—are thick and accessible in the up-and areas of about two-thirds of the northern sections of the state. Intervals in intervals the glacier periods spread silt that make good pottery. Members of the state geological survey have been studying wind-blown silts of Kansas for the past few years.
They have discovered that the deepest deposits are 195 feet thick ear the Missouri valley in Donipan county.
These silts represent several advantages for use by ceramic industries — distribution across the length of the state, nearness to the ground surface, inexpensiveness of excavation, high uniformity, and the variety of products that can be manufactured from the silts.

New Bern, N. C.—(U.P.)—Disgruntled citizens, who decide they need a swift kick in the pants, flock to the road-side self-kicker owned by Tom Haywood.
Self-Kicker Draws Crowds To Use It
There are four spokes on a wheel, each spoke fitted with a heavy shoe. The operator places himself in position, spins the crank and gives himself a healthy boot right where he meant to.
Mr. Haywood built the machine for himself in 1937 but his neighbors found so much use for it that he moved it to the highway for the use of the general public.
Self-kickers wore out three pairs of shoes before Mr. Haywood got tired of the idea. Then a stranger, who really felt that he needed a good punt, put on a fourth pair of shoes.
This year, Mr. Haywood bowed to public demand, put on a new set of brogans and went back into public service.
World War II veterans discharged before July 25, 1947, must start their G.I. bill education or training before July 25, 1951, and those discharged after July 25, 1947, must begin their courses within four years after discharge, the Veterans administration reported recently. In both cases training must be completed by July 25, 1958.
Disabled veterans of World War II may begin education or training under public law 16 at any time after discharge, but must complete the courses by July 25. 1956.
The G.I. bill readjustment allowance program has ended for most World War II veterans. Those discharged after July 25, 1947, however, may apply for the unemployment and self-employment allowances at any time within two years after discharge, but no payments will be made after July 25, 1952.
Alpha Kappa Psi, professional business fraternity pledged 23 University students and faculty members Tuesday in the Kansas room of the Union.
World War II veterans who in service lost, or lost the use of, one or both legs at or above the ankle may be entitled to receive an automobile or other conveyance at government expense. They have until June 30, 1950, to apply.
A veteran of World War II who applies for new insurance, or to reinstate a lapsed policy, generally must furnish the V.A. with satisfactory evidence of good health.
The 23 pledged were: Jack Heysinger, John H. Stevens, Donald Thompson, and John T. Weatherwax, economics instructors; George R. Johnston, Wade R. Stinson, and Glenn W. Taylor, business seniors; J.

721 Mass. -
Strathaven, Scotland—(U.P.)The famous crooked cane is in a closet with the kilts and the bonnet, and Sir Harry Lauder, the minstrel of Scotland, knows he may never need them again.
In the three months since he suffered a stroke that would have killed a younger man, the 79-year-old entertainer has been fighting his way back slowly to an awareness of the world around him.
He knows from the doctor's daily visits and the thousands of messages pouring in on his home, that it was a very close thing, as his neighbors say. And he appears to recognize that at his age the combination of cerebral thrombosis and uremia is a tough one to beat.
Only one visitor is allowed in his bedroom, his niece, Miss Gret Lauder. She reads him the newspapers and the good wishes from such friends as Winston Churchill and Danny Kaye, and lets him listen to the radio for a few minutes. But she firmly refuses his suggestions that he be permitted a pipeful of tobacco. The doctors have forbidden it.
The daily medical bulletin still says Sir Harry had a "comfortable"
day or night. But fears persist that he may be weakening slightly. Several times Miss Lauder has spent most of the night at his bedside.
The doctors say it is the old ministrel's spirit that is keeping him alive, the same strentgh and drive that took him from a humble home to wealth and world fame.
Mr. Churchill's message was one to a dear friend. They first met in 1910 when the wartime Prime Minister was a youthful home secretary. When they last met in 1946, Mr. Chorchill asked Sir Harry to sing his favorite song: "Keep Right on to The End of The Road."
It is one of Sir Harry's favorites, too.
Country roads are almost always sixty-six feet wide because that was the width of the original surveyor's chain.

University Students Continue Plans To Boost KU Spirit
University students today continued to make detailed plans to make high school students throughout Kansas and the Middle West "K.U. conscious."
The campaign to "boost K. U." more and more was given strong backing when thousands of students met in Statewide Activities groups meetings during a convocation period Wednesday.
Sedgwick county
James Porter, engineering junior, was elected chairman of the Sedgwick county meeting. Other officers are:
County and area leaders chosen and projects being sponsored by various groups follow:
Frankie Waits, Wichita Beacon;
Robert E. Davis, Wichita Eagle; Ann
Bonecutter, North High school Star;

50 people were present, representing almost entirely Wichita.
A collection was taken up during the meeting to finance the placing of Jayhawker magazines in the smaller high school libraries. "This" declared Six, "should go far in dispelling the idea that K.U. is the country club of the Middle West."
Opposition to this plan was raised by those who felt that the Jay-hawker would convince potential students here that K.U. is a country club.
"The aim of these commissions is to get more students to K.U." stated Six. "While the problems of Douglas county are not always the same of other counties, owing to the location of the University, this group can do a lot by working with the smaller schools."
A committee was appointed to work out plans for a party during Christmas vacation to which all Douglas county high school students would be invited.

Atomic Shelters Are Too Expensive For The Average American Family
Chicago—(U.P.)-A snug atomic shelter buried in the yard of every home isn't in the cards, a real estate and construction expert said gently.
The cost of building an effective structure would be prohibitive other than for the very wealthy or the military," said David O. Bohannon, San Mateo, Calif, one of the nation's largest builders of private homes.
To illustrate, Mr. Bohannon estimatd the bare cost of building a comfortable private family shelter of concrete 15 by 40 feet—small enough to fit any standard lot—with lead-sheated walls 1 foot thick and sunk 14 feet into the ground.
"With modern earth - moving machinery," he said, "it would cost about $1,200 to dig the hole, assuming of course that you had no rock excavation problems. A concrete structure with walls one foot thick would run to about $4,200, and that's just the shell."
You'd have to make adequate provisions for proper domestic water and sewage disposal. And naturally, the place would have to have its own light plant with sufficient fuel to supply the generator in case power lines were cut.
"Now our highly - mechanized little plant would have to have some sort of cold storage facilities for food—how much would depend on how long you had to stay in it—and nobody, not even the Atomic Energy commission, is prepared to tell us that.
"Some steel reinforcing around the structure would help. But from what we learned at Nagasaki, we know that an atomic blast blows steel away like dust
"In the case of lead sheating, you would have to draw on a subsidy from the Unted Stites treasury. We can't even afford lead for drain-pipes.

Coffee Survey?
Officials Say No
Washington, Nov. 30—(U.P.)The census bureau now is seriously considering demands that it conduct a survey to find out why coffee prices are so high.
The girl, who used to work in a bank, poisoned herself after mailing her trousseau to the waiting bridegroom.
Philip M. Hauser, acting bureau director, said a letter Sen. Guy M. Gillette, (Dem., Iowa.) sent him Tuesday was only a part of the public pressure brought on the bureau recently to resume publishing statistics on U.S. coffee supplies.
Kirkpatrick Sport Shop 715 Mass. Ph.1018
Senator Gillette, chairman of a senate agriculture committee studying food prices, asked Mr. Hauser to tell congress immediately how much coffee is on hand and to resume regular publication of such statistics.
Mr. Hauser said he can't give an immediate final decision on Senator Gillette's demand for three reasons:
1. He has not actually received the Senator's letter.
2. He has not made up his mind whether the survey would be more important than others being made by the bureau.
3. Charles Sawyer, secretary of commerce, must approve any such survey.
But Mr. Hauser said he thinks "chances are good that it will become a matter of public interest" to know just how much coffee there is in this country.

Lemmings Grow Their Own Snowshoes For Winter Use
San Francisco—(U.P.) —Lemmings, famous for their immigration problems, grow their own snowshoes in the winter and shed them with the spring thaw.
Sally Carrigharm, nature writer, has brought one of the tiny rodents from Alaska to the California Academy of Sciences here. Between the toes of its forepaws, it has grown thick pads. The lemmings use their seasonable enlarged feet to burrow under the hard frozen ground.
Lemmings multiply rapidly and from time to time, the population gets too much for itself. When this peak is reached, thousands of the rodents embark on a mass migration, settling in another country or part of the Arctic region. Sometimes, they all march right on into the sea and perish.

Western Nations Protest Seizure Of US Citizens
Washington. Dec. I—(U.P.)The state department, with the moral backing of American public opinion and at least 12 Western nations, today arranged new diplomatic maneuvers to help two Americans who have been interred by Chinese Communists for 13 months.
Two other Americans, held by the North Korean regime are covered by the protest of the 12 nations. The state department said that Albert Willis, Brooklyn, and Alfred T. Meschter, Kinderhook, N.Y., are held in Korea. Chinese Communists hold William C. Smith, Long Beach, Calif., and Elmer C. Bender, Cincinnati.
The 12 protesting countries are as follows: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Egypt, France, India, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Great Britain and the Phillipines.
Dean Acheson, secretary of state, announced on Nov. 31 that he was asking 30 nations, including Russia, to join the U.S. in protesting the Reds' mistreatment of American representatives in China. Russia and four of its satellites ignored the protest.
They disappeared into Communist territory near Tsingtao Oct. 19, 1948, while on a routine training flight in a U. S. navy plane. Since then the United States has sent six formal notes to Communist authorities with no marked success.
The latest message was the first to go to the foreign minister himself. It had to be mailed to Mr. Chou because O. Edmund Clubb, U. S. cusul general has been unable to get an audience with top Communists in Peiping. It is not known whether the note actually reached the foreign minister.
The state department also is harassed by the problem of Consul General Angus Ward and his staff at Mukden. The Communists have ordered them out of China, but had not arranged transportation.
The China Policy association demanded in New York that Congress investigate the department's Far Eastern division
Rhyne To Speak At Convocation
Charles S. Rhyne will address students Wednesday, Dec. 7, in a School of Law convocation.
Mr. Rhyne is the general counsel of the National Institute of Municipal Law Officers, Washington, D.C. He holds degrees from Duke and George Washington universities.
Tryouts Today For Radio Play
Tryouts for a one-act play will be held at 4 p.m. today in Fraser theater. The play is an adaptation of a radio play so only the voices of the actors will be used. There are parts for about 10 men and women. The play will be presented on December 14.
A report from the new Nationalist "war capital" of Chengtu quoted telegraphic authorities as saying Chungkang changed hands peacefully when advance Communist units crossed the Yangtze river to help maintain order.
Hong Kong, Dec. 1—(U.P.)—Thousands of Chinese Communist troops marched into Chungkwing today to take over the abandoned Nationalist capital from Communist underground forces.
Red Troops Occupy Capital
All Nationalist troops, including the garrison commander, Gen. Yang San, have evacuated Chungking. This left a temporary vacuum, but tentative looting was halted by underground forces that came into the open.
Four municipal representatives, including the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, crossed the Yangtze to greet the Communist forces massed on the south bank.
Available reports said the Communist commander informed the delegation that his troops had taken over the former Nationalist capital. The commander called upon Chung-king's residents to carry on their normal activities.
Reports from Chengtu said that Generalissimo Chiang was preparing to resume an active role as head of the Nationalist government. Sources close to Li Tsung-Jen, acting president, said that he had rejected Generalissimo Chiang's request to relinguish his post as head of the government and will continue to call himself the acting president.
Some Communist units crossed the river Wednesday afternoon and occupied Cholungpo airfield outside Chungking. Other units took over the adjacent suburb of Fushingkwan, highest point in Chungking's environs, from where Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek directed wartime operations against the Japanese.
The width of the United States ships is determined by the Panama Canal, and the height by the Brooklyn bridge.
Request Music To Be Played But No Jazz Or Symphonies
Semi-classical music, show tunes, and dance standards will be played over the public address system between noon and 1 p.m. and 5:30 and 6:30 p.m. each day in the Union.
Students may request any records in these categories by telling a member of the Student Union activities announcements committee in the Union activities office during program hours. Records will be selected from the record files and from the Union activities collection in the organization's office.
"We are not going to either extreme in music," said Sue Sperry, chairman of the committee. "We won't play jazz or current songs which won't last. And we don't plan to play heavy symphonies or operas."
While sorting the records in its library Wednesday night, the announcement committee collected two dozen records to send to Wadsworth veterans home and hospital in Leavenworth and to Winter General hospital in Topeka.
The committee is looking for a record of the University Alma Mater. Anyone knowing of one is asked to call Miss Sperry.
Members of the committee are Robert Wolff, business senior; Donald Clark and Nancy Gemmill, College juniors; David Arthurs, Priscilla Barron, Dorothy Becker, William Howell, and Clarence Hughes, College sophomores; and Martha Jane Shaw and Robert M. Smith, College freshmen.

C. B. Hinthorn, station agent, narrowly escaped getting a lump of the flying lard in his face. He was in the doorway of the station when the collision occurred, and had to duck fast. Several cans of the shortening battered against the building.

Dallas, Texas—(U.P.)-Civil Aeronautics board experts have begun investigating the crash of a DC-6 American airliner in which 28 persons were killed at Love field here. The plane, going from New York to Mexico City, crashed and burned early Tuesday as it came in for a landing with two engines dead.
Probe Begins In Dallas Crash With 28 Dead
Most of the 18 survivors were in the forward part of the cabin that broke open just behind the wings giving them an escape exit. Nine of the 18 remained in Dallas hospitals overnight. Among those who lived were Capt. Laurenis (Tommy Claude and two fellowcrewmen) the hostesses, Margaret Van Bibber, 24, Madison, N. J.; and Josephine Cadena, San Antonio died with the 26 passengers.
Eighteen of the 46 persons aboard escaped alive but 28 were trapped by a sweeping mass of flame. Three of the bodies still are unidentified. Robert W. Crisp, chairman of the C.A.B. hearing division, was on the way to take personal charge of the investigation. He was accompanied by William K. Andrews, director of the C.A.B. bureau of safety investigation.
Captain Claude, 52, Fort Worth,
said he had feathered the outside
left propeller when the engine went
bad over Altheimer, Ark., and
brought the big plane, 315 miles to
Dallas, with three engines. As he
started to land, the pilot said, the
outside right engine also went dead.
The left wing dropped and there
was not enough power to gain alti-
tude.
Captain Claude called out, "She's a goner." Then the plane ripped into two hangars and another building, setting off fires that destroyed them. "After that," said Captain Claude. "I have no clear recollection of anything that happened, except I dived through the forward baggage hatch, through the fire and started crawling away."
When the first engine went out, the airliner was 40 miles southeast of Little Rock, 10 minutes flying time from an airport where the main north-south runway is 5,125 feet long.
American airlines said in an official statement that "when only one engine goes out, it is not considered necessary to land immediately. The pilot . . ordinarily lands at American airlines-approved fields."
The statement said Captain Claude had a choice of either Memphis or Dallas and "he showed good judgment in proceeding to Dallas."
Is Carrie Nation Back In Wichita?
Police said today "five or six" retail liquor dealers have discovered small holes shot in the plate glass paneling of their shops. Air rifle pellets were found inside all the stores where damage was reported. Ballistics test failed to reveal any clue.
Wichita.—(U.P.)—There's a modern Carrie Nation at work in Wichita. Liquor dealers report the unidentified counterpart of the famous prohibition uses an air rifle instead of a hachet, but the air rifle is effective.
Police said the modern Carrier Nation usually strikes late at night. Whoever is firing the shots is finding a good target, one police officer observed. Since prohibition was repealed in Kansas in the spring most liquor dealers have used plate glass extensively to display their wares.

Leadership In College Activities Is Part Of Education, SAM Members Told
Get on your feet and practice leadership in University activities, Charles M. Corsaut, director of the state employment service, told members of the Society for the Advancement of Management Tuesday.
"College should develop more than just a student," Mr. Corsault said. "It should develop leadership. When a person has a chance to develop leadership in worthwhile activities in college he should jump at the chance. Take part in any discussion that you can. Learn to give and take."
Mr. Corsaut, who was basketball coach at Kansas State college for 10 years, told of hearing the late Fiorello H. LaGuardia speak at Manhattan. He said Mr. LaGuardia told students there that, "If there should be an issue arise on this campus, within 30 minutes I would be on one side or the other."
"Kansas should make its own
He said that industries had moved and were continuing to move to Kansas from the East coast states. Industries are moving to Kansas because of its central location, its many lakes, and the large amount of raw materials developed and undeveloped, within the state.
Mr. Corsaut said, "We are the leaders of tomorrow. The responsibility of leadership is on our shoulders. During the war Kansas had the greatest output for each man hour of any state in the Union."
products from its raw materials"
Mr. Corsaut said. "We send wheat out of the state for $2.50 a bushel and buy back the products of that wheat at $108 a bushel. We send crude oil out of the state for $6.50 a barrel and buy the products for $1,000."
He advised students who were choosing careers to "Look over the field of employment. See where there is a need and let that need guide you in choosing your career. Last year there were 9,000 vacancies for lawyers through death and retirement; 36,000 students were graduated from law schools."

Ike A Sure Bet For Nomination By Republicans
By LYLE C. WILSON
BY LYLE C. WILSON
Washington, Dec. 2 — U(P)—Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower is almost a sure bet today to be among the top three contenders for the 1952 Republican presidential nomination.
The other two are Sen. Robert A. Taft, Ohio, and President Harold E. Stassen of the University of Pennsylvania.
Taft must be re-elected to the senate next year to remain in the presidential nomination contest. There is no such hurdle confronting either Eisenhower or Stassen, both of whom are behaving precisely as candidates should behave although neither has yet said "I'm willin".
Ike won't even say whether he is, was or will be a Republican or Democrat. When he registered for last month's elections in New York state the general put himself down as without party affiliation.
But as president of Columbia University he has waded shoulder deep into national politics. A series of statements and speeches reached a new political high this week when Eisenhower again directly attacked the Truman administration on domestic spending and individual security policies.
"The definition of a liberal," he said "has become a man in Washington who wants to play the almighty with our money."
None was puzzled about the identity of the man Eisenhower had in mind. He made the remark before the annual banquet of the St. Andrew's Society of the state of New York. It brought his relations with President Truman a long way from the incident in 1945 which he relates on page 444 of "Crusade in Europe," which was Ike's book.
Explaining that he and one other were riding with the president, Ike wrote:
"In now the car he (Mr. Truman) suddenly turned toward me and said 'general, there is nothing that you may want that I won't try to help you get. That definitely and specifically includes the presidency in 1948."
Ike added that he assured the president he would not be his opponent in that year. Mr. Truman has given many evidences of confidence in Eisenhower since then. But the General has been pulling away from just about all the president stands for here at home.
At varying intervals of days and weeks, Ike has been pot-shotting the administration on general policy and special issues. He began easily last March right here in Washington when he told the conference of mayors that they should not look to the federal government to solve all their problems.
On May 31 in a speech Eisenhower began scolding the "demagogues of the right and of the left."
In September 1949 Eisenhower addressed the American Bar association in St. Louis. He said the United States must direct its course "down middle of the road between the unfettered power of concentrated wealth and the unbridled power of statism."
That shot, aimed directly at Mr. Truman, might have come from the Republican National committee. Ike's refusal to avow his politics is not fooling anyone in Washington. Few here expect him to pin a party label on himself unless—and after—he is nominated for president. It probably would be better politics not to do so.

Little Theater ToBeRedecorated
A special improvement project to redecorate Green hall's Little theater is in progress according to C. G. Bayles, Buildings and Grounds superintendent.
Estimated to cost $3,500, the project will include the installation of a new control switchboard, a new steam line backstage, new oak flooring on the stage, a new lightning scheme, and new linoleum flooring in the main part of the room.
It is being repainted in tones of light and dark brown. The floor and back curtains will be dark red. Seatings will be provided by the opera chairs which were taken out of Strong auditorium when it was re-decorated.
The project will be completed, except for installation of the switchboard, during Christmas vacation.
Engineering Groups Unite
Following the business meeting 50 members of ALEE saw slides shown by J. E. Murray, past-president of the Kansas City branch of the organization. Mr. Murray took the pictures in Mexico City at the 1948 national ALEE convention.
Bidding has been opened on the switchboard which is to cost $2,000, and it should arrive within several months.
Many religious views are presented in the play. Satni, an Egyptian priest and leading character, does not believe in God. Yaoma, to whom Satni is engaged, believes in revelation through faith.
$ \textcircled{5} $Tickets for the production may be obtained from 9 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the basement of Green hall. Activity cards must be presented to get reservations.
The part of Satni is played by Harold Harvey, instructor in speech. Yaoma is played by Bernice Brady, education senior, and the high priest is played by Loren Orr, College senior.
The high priest in the play knows that there is falseness, ignorance, and superstition in the religious ritual, senses need these things in religion.
The characters in the play become as excited over religion as many persons do today. When Satni destroys the thieves of the old gods without harm coming to him, the crippled, ill, and blind come to him for healing.
Washburn's Dean Of Women Visits AWS Senate Meeting
Yaoma is moved by the supposed miracles she has seen and always follows her faith rather than her love for Satni.
A meeting of the Associated Women Students' senate Thursday was visited by Miss Marie Moore, dean of women at Washburn Municipal university, and by six members of Washburn's newly organized A.W.S.
The guests were interested in learning how K.U.'s A.W.S. functioned and took particular note of the organization's precinct plan which Miss Moore described as "a wonderful idea that had been well thought out and well planned."

"Most students have been checked recently for diabetes but they may on request have a recheck," said Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the University health service.
Those planning to take the test should not eat for two or three hours prior to the testing. Residents throughout the Douglas county area may obtain further information at any drug store in the county.
A positive test is suggestive of diabetes, but does not necessarily mean that the disease is present. Positive tests will be reported only to the individual concerned.
City Police System Shown To Students
Police blotters, finger printing, and arrest procedure were explained to the Reporting II class of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information today.
Leo L. Redding, Lawrence police patrolman, conducted the class in a tour of the Lawrence police station.
The city police department now has 22 members, Mr. Redding said. This number includes the chief, captain, lieutenant, four sergeants, detectives, and patrolmen. The department has two squad cars, each equipped with a three-way radio. The police department and the Douglas county sheriff share the same radio wave length, he added.
Darby Named US Senator To Replace Reed
Mr. Darby will serve the unexpired term of the late U.S. Sen. Clyde M. Reed who died Nov. 8 of a heart attack.
Toppea, Dec. 2—U.(R)-Harry Darby, 54, Kansas City, Kan., today was appointed U.S. senator for Kansas, by Gov. Frank Carlson.
Mr. Darby, head of a Kansas City steel company, has been serving as Kansas Republican national committeeman.
At a crowded conference in the governor's office, Mr. Dary was present in a dark blue suit, and wearing black cowboy boots.
Only last summer, he turned aside party moves to place him at the head of the G.O.P. national committee when Guy Gabrielson of New Jersey finally was selected.
Carlson said he was proud to name his friend and party co-worker.
"I am pleased that Harry Darby consented to take this appointment," Governor Carlson said, "In view of his great interest in and service to the state of Kansas."
There were 232 names submitted to Governor Carlson for the job. Most came to him from supporters of a possible appointee. Some of the candidates put in good words for themselves.
"He has been an outstanding plugger for both Kansas industry and agriculture. He, as you know, is president of the American Royal and is co-chairman of the state 4-H club committee."
Mr. Darby, a big man with a hearty, half-fellow personality, has been a strong man in Kansas Republican politics for nearly a decade. National committeeman since 1940, he led Kansas into the Tom Dewey camp in the G.O.P. national convention in 1948.
He won an intra-party struggle with forces of Alf M. Landon prior to the convention in the selection of Kansas delegates to Philadelphia.
Darby has never held an elective public office, but was Kansas director of highways from 1932 through 1936 by appointment from then Governor Landon.
The naming of the polished, persuasive industrialist to the United States senate climaxed "the great speculation" of recent Kansas political history.
Almost from the moment of Senator Reed's unexpected death at his Parsons home the appointment of a successor was the question of the day.
And the governor himself? He was truly a politician with a problem, a king-sized, once-in-a-lifetime one. Because it has been no secret that he would like to step into a U.S. senate seat when his current second term in the statehouse is done.
Governor Carlson could have resigned and had himself appointed senator. But he did not choose to follow that course, and, in the eyes of most Republican leaders and state scene observers, it would have been a mistake.
Instead, Governor Carlson is almost certain to run for the full six-year senate term in the G.O.P. primary next year. That term will begin in January of 1951.
Neither Governor Carlson nor Mr. Darby would, of course, say but the consensus is that the newly-named senator will be willing to retire after his one-year's service and not be a candidate against Governor Carlson.

Fowler Talks On Symbolism
Man attempts to bring an idea to life by symbolism, said Clavton Fowler, assistant professor of drawing and painting, in a lecture on late Medieval symbolism Thursday.
The talk was one in a series of lectures being given by Professor Fowler and John Maxon, director of the Museum of Art. Professor Fowler is speaking on symbolism, and Professor Maxon is speaking on interior decoration.
Painters of that time used symbolism and allegory in likening stories of the Old Testament to the fulfilled prophecies of the New Testament, Professor Fowler said. He added that a parallel might be drawn between the symbolic works of Bosch and today's social problems.

'No Knock-Knees Here,' Say Irate British Chorines
London—(U.P.)—British showgirls have huffily offered to stack their assets against those of any American chorines.
"Why we had beautiful women in this country when the Indians were in the colonies—I mean Broadway," snorted 6-foot Bunty Graham.
Miss Graham and her sister beauties of London's Folies Bergere had their dander up because they read that Lou Walters, New York and Boston night club impresario said British showgirls are knock-kneed.
London's Folies Bergere is a copy of the French show of the same name, even to the same lack of costumes.
"My girls have nothing to hide—so to speak," said Dick Hurran, producer. He said Mr. Walters visited Great Britain the past summer and was given every opportunity to see the local brand of pulchritude. Although he was supposed to be scouting beauty for his Broadway Latin Quarter, Mr. Walters offered no contracts.
"Then, he gets back home and starts, making cracks about our girls," said Mr. Hurran. "He says that there isn't a real beauty left in Europe. He boasts that the Monte Carlo sporting club had to send to New York to borrow some of his girls for their show."
To show that American girls have nothing on the British product, Mr. Hurran pointed to blond Terry Morley, displaying 6 feet of undressed peaches and cream complexion. Miss Morley said she would like to get her hands on Mr. Walters.
"As for those American girls she raves about," she sniffed. "I've seen their pictures and they wouldn't be bad." She a company touring the provinces.

from looking for her costume, and Lorne Gill, a 5-foot 10-inch brunette, offered to match knees with any girl on Broadway, especially those in Mr. Walters' Latin Quarter.
"They can't wear as little as we do," she said, "because then the padding would show. We may be a little short of dollars over here."
Miss Marqueez, a voluptuous dancer, said that American girls might — just might — have better knees. But that's about all, she said.

K State Downs Rockhurst In Big Seven Cage Opener
The Kansas State Wildcat basketball team defeated Rockhurst 83 to 34 last night to open the Big Seven conference. Ernie Barrett led the Wildcat attack with 15 counters.
This game was the first of 63 to be played by Big Seven teams before the league opened between Kansas and Oklahoma Jan. 6 in Hoch auditorium.
By the time the annual Big Seven pre-season tournament rolls around late this month in Kansas City, cage fans should have a good line on their favorite clubs. Twenty-eight of the non-conference battles are with teams that annually rank high among the national cage powers.
Eleven games will be played with Southwest Conference clubs and another nine bring Big Ten teams against the Big Seven banners. Other cage powers to meet the Big Seven are: Bradley University twice, Holy Cross, Cincinnati, Duquesne, Long Island University, City College of New York, and Washington State of the Pacific Coast conference.
The Jayhawkers play a strong seven-game schedule before entering the Kansas City tourney. These games should provide Kansas cage followers a line on the Jayhawkers' relative strength for the classic as well as the Big Seven conference race.
Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen's tail cagers open their 1949-50 season against Rockhurst Saturday night in the Mason Halpin field house, Kansas City, Mo. Following their game with the Hawks, the Jayhawkers move on to Omaha to angle with the Creighton Bluejays Monday night.
A four-game eastern swing pits Kansas against three of the most powerful cage cubs in the nation. These teams are Holy Cross, Cincinnati, and Duquesne. Many pre season ratings place these teams in the top twenty clubs of the nation.
Coach Jack Gardner's Wildcats, built around potential All-American forward Rick Harman, takes on high ranking Long Island University, Wisconsin, Washington State College, Canisius, Baylor, and West Virginia. The Aggies, rated along with Oklahoma as pre-season favorites to cop this year's title, will get a severe test from these six loaded clubs.
Kansas State will rest their hopes on Harman, Clarence Brannum, Ernie Barrett, Lloyd Krone, and probably Ed Head, or Jack Stone, a pair of fine juniors.
Oklahoma, co-champions with Nebraska in 1948-49, will build their club around three remaining starters from last year—Paul Merchant, Wayne Glasgow, and Bill Waters. Missing this year will be their fine jump shot artist, Paul Courty, and Kenneth Pryor, greatest Sooner long shot of all time.
Two games with Illinois and single engagements with Texas am City College of New York room out their pre-tourney schedule.
Coach Harry Good's Nebraska Cornhuskers aren't expected to give the trouble they gave last year when they tied Oklahoma for the championship. With the graduation of Claude Retherford, unorthodox sharpshooter who led Nebraska in scoring for four years, Nebraska lost much of their offensive punch. They will have to rely on Milt White-head, six-foot nine-inch 215 pound postman, and Joe Malecek, outstanding junior forward, to carry much of this year's scoring load.
Nebraska plays Bradley on Dec 12, Baylor Dec. 17, and several weak opponents before moving into the Kansas City tournament.
The Colorado Buffaloes, with last year's starting lineup intact, could be the darkhorse team of the conference this year. Coach Forrest "Frosty" Cox will have plenty of rebound power in center Bob Rolander and Carr Besemann. Other starters will probably be Wayne Tucker, Bill Ley, and Kendall Hills, defensive wizard.
Seven games precede the tournament on the Buffaloes schedule. They play two games with Emporia State, Northwestern in Chicago, a pair of games with Rice Institute, a team with The University Methodist, one of this year's favorites in the Southwest conference.
Iowa State, coached by Clayton (Chick) Sutherland, isn't expected to rise much out of their co-cellar berth shared with the Jayhawkers last year. Only six lettermen are back and the team lacks height and scoring ability. The Cyclones play an eight game schedule before Dec. 27 in meeting Luther College, Grinnell, Bradley University, one of the top five clubs in the country, Drake twice, Minnesota, Northwestern, and Idaho.
Coach Wilbur Stalcup's Missouri Tigers will probably battle it out for third place in the final conference standings. The Tigers have plenty of height and rebound power in Don Stroot, six-foot eight-inch beanpole, and in Jerry Fowler, six-foot six-inch 225-pounder.
The Tigers face a six-game schedule before tourney time in playing Texas Christian University two games, Southern Methodist two games, and single contests with Michigan State and Wisconsin.
The Big Seven non-conference schedule through Dec. 6 is as follows:
Sat., Dec. 3—KANSAS at ROCK- HURST
Kansas State at Emporia State So. Dakota State at Nebraska Texas at Oklahoma
Luther College at Iowa State
MoDee. Dec. 5—KANS, at CREIGHTON

Notre Dame End Named Best
New York, Dec. 2 — (U.R.)—Monstrous Leon Hart of Notre Dame, one of the finest all-around gridiron stars of modern times, today was named collegiate player of the year by 295 sports writers and broadcasters polled by the United Press in nationwide balloting.
That honor just about completed a sweep of the boards for the 20-year-old native of Turtle Creek, Pa., who plans to play professional football after he is graduated next spring. Within the past two weeks Hart was chosen for the Maxwell and Heisman trophies and was the top vote getter on the United Press All-American team. He also was named United Press lineman of the year.
Hart polled 168 player of the year votes against 27 for his All-American teammate, quarterback Bob Williams who finished second. Williams was named United Press back of the year earlier this week in a similar poll.
Southern Methodist's triple-threat back, Doak Walker, was third in the poll with 19 votes while Eddie Lebaron of the College of the Pacific finished fourth with 16.
Players receiving more than four votes, included:

Uncle Horace filled his house with horses
He figured to run his house by horse power instead of electric power. No more electric bills for him!
So he hitched Dobbin to the washing machine, and old Nell to the refrigerator. Bought another nag for the vacuum cleaner and more for the other jobs.
Poor Horace! All he got was a hate for horseflesh and a hatful of debts.
But a great love for his electric bills!
And why not? Electric power is about the handiest, quickest, easiest way to get work done. And about the cheapest . . . what else can you buy that does so much, yet costs so little? (An average family in a day uses electric power equal to the work of 5 or 6 horses—and buys it for a few pennies!)
That's good business for anybody who has housework or almost any kind of work—to get done. Tax-paying electric companies like ours have made it that way. By pioneering electric service. By showing people how useful it is. By finding ways to make it the best bargain in a family's budget.

Tallest Jayhawkers Ever Begin Campaign Tomorrow
---
Probable Starters
Kansas Pos. Rockhurst
(6-2) Bob Kenney F. Pat Allegri (6-1)
(6-0) Jerry Waugh F. Leo Schleicher (5-8)
(6-9) Clyde Lovellette C. Dan Breen (6-3)
(6-5) Claude Houchin G. Larry Messina (6-2)
(6-4) Bill Houghland G. Jim Quinlan (6-2)
Coach Forrest C. "Phog" Allen's Jayhawkers, featuring three tall sophomores in the starting lineup, open their 1949-50 cage season against the Rockhurst College Hawks tomorrow at 8:15 p.m. in Mason Halpin field house, Kansas City, Mo., in what should be Kansas' most successful season since the 1946 club won the conference title with a perfect record.
Rockhurst was badly beaten in their opener last night at Manhattan as Kansas State set a new school scoring mark in downing the Hawks by a top heavy 83 to 34 score.
Rockhurst showed a little offensive power and a next-to-nothing defense against the Aggies. Pat Allegri, sophomore forward, paced the Rockhurst attack getting 8 points on two goals and four charity tosses.
Kansas is expected to encounter little trouble in downing the smaller Hawks, coached by Ed Ryan, and should be in command of the cage tussle most of the way.
Dr. Allen, starting his thirty-third season as head basketball coach, will field the tallest Jayhawker starting lineup in the history of the school. The starting five will average exactly six-feet fourinches and can be even more when any number of combinations play together on the court.
This starting lineup is not only tall, but packs plenty of weight along with their height. The starters will average 188 pounds per man and this will help in gathering rebounds off the boards. For their size, this crew is fast, plenty agile, and knows what to do with the ball at all times.
Even though the offensive strength will probably center around Clyde Lovelette, six-foot nine-inch sophomore linebacker James Kroger fixes is capable of splitting the nets.
This year's team is blessed with more depth of material than any Kansas cage squad in recent years, at least offensively. Coach Allen can start a second unit that is capable of being even better than his first unit on any given night, except for the tremendous scour power given the first unit by the play of center Lovelette.
These players could be as follows: Gene Petersen, six-foot seven-inch senior forward who finished second in Big Seven scoring last year with 145 points and Bill Lienhard, outstanding sophomore from Newton, at the other front-line spot. Jack Carby, six-foot seven-inch center, has shown considerable improvement this year and may crowd a starter if he continues to show the same improvement as the season begins on.
The two guard spots would probably go to Dale Engel, greatly improved player over last year's performance, and senior letterman, Maurice Martin, from Topeka. Pushing these players is the always hustling Lyn Smith, slowed up somewhat by reporting late due to play on the gridiron.
In last year's game, the Jayhawkers had little trouble downing the Hawks by a top-heavy score of 67 to 20 as Houchin racked up a 17-point total England scored nine points, while
Even after going through what might be considered the top eleven players, you can't overlook such capable performers as lettermen Harold England, owner of probably the most deadly lefthand shot in the league, hustling Buddy Bull, and Guy "Spider" Marby, one of the best shots on the team. Probably no Jayhawker club has shown so much over-all offensive strength as this year's since the famous "Iron Five" club of the 1942-43 season.
The really big question mark confronting Dr. Allen's young giants will be their ability to operate under fire and being able to throw up a defense to check such fine offensive clubs as Purdue, Cincinnati, Holy Cross, Kansas State, Oklahoma, and others. Only time will tell concerning the latter situation.
Kansas holds a 9-0 edge in the series with Rockhurst and should cop their tenth straight this year without a set-back.

Petersen and Martin tied for third place scoring honors with seven points apiece.
Only two of last year's Kansas starters will be on the firing line tomorrow night and these men are Waugh and Houchin. The other three spots will go to sophomores, while last year they went to Petersen, England, and to senior Bill Sapp.
Coach Ryan, in his first year at Rockhurst, is rebuilding the Hawks with young material and will probably start four sophomores and a junior These starters will average just a bit over 6-1 and will have to battle to clear the boards against the much taller Jayhawkers.
Rockhurst was able to gather only six goals from the field and added eight free throws for their 20 points. The half-time score was 32 to 10.
The Rockhurst game is the first of a two-game weekend road trip for the Jayhawkers, Kansas will play the Creighton Bluejays in Omaha on Monday night before returning to Lawrence.
The following eighteen players will make the Rockhurst trip: Charles Bates, Buddy Bull, Jack Carby, Jay Drake, Dale Engel, Harold England, Claude Houchin, Bill Houghland, Bob Kennedy, Bill Leinhard, Clyde Lovelette, Harold Lowe, Guy Marby, Maurice Martin Gene Petersen, Carl Reade, Lyn Smith and Jerry Waugh.
Coach Allen will take his team to Kansas City by chartered bus leaving Lawrence at 1 p.m. Saturday. The team will set up headquarters at the Muehlbach Hotel and remain overnight following the game. A traveling squad of fourteen will continue to Omaha Sunday morning by bus for Monday night's contest with Creighton. The team will stay at the Fortenelle Hotel in Omaha Sunday night and return to Lawrence by bus immediately following the Creighton game.

Griffith To Play With South Team
Forrest Griffith-rated by the Kansas as the most under-rated back in the Big Seven conference, has accepted an invitation to play with the South team in the North-South game Dec. 26.
FORREST GRIFFITH
Griffith. 190-pounder, has been top fullback in the Big Seven two years running—1947 and 1848—but was overlooked this year by practically every all star picker.
The senior fullback and Jayhawker co-captain, will leave by plane about Dec. 19 for Miami, Fla The game is to be played there in the Orange bowl.
Griffith led the conference in scoring in 1947, and has paced Kansas in scoring in 1947 and 1948. He set a record of most points scored in one season for Kansas in 1947—his sophomore year. His record of 54 points was broken this year by Bud French who tallied 66 points.

Battenfeld Over Little Saint Is Only Close IM Game
Battenfeld and Little Saint, in the independent "B" bracket, produced a 23 to 22 contest to enliven an otherwise run-of-the-mill day in first-round intramural basketball. Two contests—Oread vs. Gamma Delta and Dreamers vs. Kappa Psi—were postponed.
Independent "B" games
Battenfeld barely edged the Little Saints 23 to 22. Bill Pearn of Battenfield led scorers during the game with eight points.

EXPOSURES BY O HANK BROWN
Christmas is rolling around again—getting closer than most of us realize. This season always poses a problem for most of us as to just what to get for everyone. It's nice to give necessities, but the thrill comes in getting something that will give pleasure and usefulness long after the "kick of getting" it is past.
In instances where it's acceptable, we suggest giving a 'hobby, not a toy.' Of all the avenues open to the public for entertainment, photography is the most fun. Kits are available, containing all the necessary materials for printing pictures, at $7.50, for enlarging at $12.95.
The "Photocraft" enlarging kit contains camera, trays, film tank, enlarger, safelight, graduate chemicals, and paper. It is for 828 size film and a remarkable kit for that price.
In the visual education field you can't beat "Viewmaster." Viewer and 3 reels sell for $3.00. It is three-dimensional, like the old stereopticon viewer, with the Fairy Tales and many other reels. This item is versatile enough for all kids from 3 to 100.
There are also cameras, enlargers, movie cameras, projectors, and accessories. Your dealer will be glad to help you in every way that he can.

Supreme Court Chamber Lacks Good Acoustics
Washington—(U.P.)—When a guest gets a pass to the awesome chamber where the United States supreme court decisions are handed down, he also is given a slip which says:
"Silence is requested."
Silence is requested. The request is hardly necessary.
The request is hardly necessary. There is little else but silence in the plushy room, with its marble pillars, deep crimson drapes and enough cubbyholes to keep a family of starlings happy for generations.
The plain fact is the acoustics are terrible in the 10 million dollar building, which was built in 1935 without thought given, either to acoustics or air-cooling.
The hearing part got an airing a couple of years ago when Justice Felix Frankfurter remarked at the end of a reading of a learned decision:
"The acoustics in this court room ought to be declared unconstitutional."
His remark was echoed by Justice Robert H. Jackson and others.
Tourists who beg and plead for passes into the small room on supreme court Mondays go away wagging their heads. They can see the dignified, black robed justices but can't hear much they say. Unless they are lip readers, they have to go out and buy the latest paper. <sup>48</sup> a matter of fact, some of the
As a matter of fact, some of the justices can't hear one another.
By chance, the two newest justices —Tom Clark and Sherman Minton— are at opposite ends of the bench. All they can do is wave.
A committee, comprised of Hugs Black, Mr. Minton and Mr. Clark is said to have been appointed to see what can be done about it. According to David Lynn, the architect of the Capitol, it will take a bit of doing.
The situation got so bad a couple of years ago, he said, that the bureau of standards — which can solve any problem—was called in. The experts installed the pretty deep crimson drapes with rugs to match. That didn't help.
The bureau of standards engineers were called back and called for elimination of many alcoves, which suck in the sounds. It was decided that would call for practically rebuilding a mighty expensive building.
Speaking of sound effects, the dignity of the building was jarred not long ago by a thump-thumping which seemed to come from :the third floor. It did. The original planners built a gymnasium on the third floor—thinking maybe the highest court in the land would want to relax by flexing a muscle once in awhile. No justice, so far as is known, ever did. But some law clerks got friskey. They had been playing basketball in the gym. They aren't any more.
The justices themselves aren't helping the acoustics situation much. Justice Black tips his swivel chair back so far he talks to the ceiling, Justice Stanley Reed has a soft voice. Mr. Frankfurther leans forward and puts out a staccato stream and Chief Justice Freed M. Vinson is hard to understand with his Kentucky drawl.

Queen Victoria Has Anvil Chorus Salute
New Westminster, B. C. —(U.P)—This city uses good old-fashioned anvils, not sleek 25-pounder guns, to fire royal salutes when Queen Victoria's birthday rolls around.
It's an old custom dating back to 1872 when members of the original "Ancient and Honourable Anvil Battery" gathered to fire the first 21-bang anvil chorus in honor of their queen.
They really used anvils. New Westminster did not have guns then.
Westminster did not have guns then. It's an old Cheshire custom—that of filling the square hole in the top of the anvil with gunpowder, placing another one on top, and stitting the charge off with a red-hot iron. The resulting "bang" was loud enough to fool anyone. The novel gun is fired at one minute intervals, 21 times.
Kansas TB Rate At All-Time Low
Topcka,—(U.P.)—Steadly Kansas is beating down the tuberculosis death rate, the State board of health has reported.
In a monthly summary, the board said that the TB death rate now is nine per cent under the previous all-time low set for the first 10 months of 1948.
The report added that there is an excellent chance the final 1949 figures will establish a new yearlong mark of fighting back the ravages of tuberculosis.

Thailand Replaces Siam Once Again In Asian Country's See-Saw Of Names
Siam is dead and Thailand is here again.
For the second time in a decade, this see-saw in a country's name has been completed. It became official only recently when the premier of the Southeast Asian kingdom decreed the change, although his state council had voted for it 10 months ago.
Thailand, or Muang Thai, is "free land." It was in 1839 that the government, under the king, Akhon, invaded the world to drop the foreign name Siam. favor of Thai, Thai, or free, expressed the spirit of the Siamese. It is the name they had always called themselves.
Thailand, or Muang Thai, means $ \textcircled{8} $
Under Japanese pressure, Thailand declared war against Britain nd the United States. It was an unpopular declaration, however, and one
Ironically, soon after taking the name Thailand, the people found themselves with less freedom than before. Japanese forces occupied the country for nearly five years, using it as a base for their conquest of Malaya and their thrust through Burma.
which the United States chose to ignore.
At the close of World War II, the kingdom repudiated its wartime leaders and resumed its first name. As Siam, it made peace with Britain at the beginning of 1946, and became the 55th member of the United Nations. In 1946 the young king was mysteriously shot.
A coup by the wartime premier was successful in late 1947 and reports of political turbulence persist as the name Thailand is resumed. Underneath though is a solid foundation for prosperity—a land of 17,000,000 people with an economy based on rice, teak, rubber, and tin.
Miss Martha Peterson, Y.W.C.A. advisory board member, told a meeting of the organization's cabinet Wednesday that the Young Women's Christian association should be a pioneer in campus activities.
YW Urged To Be Pioneer On Campus
Miss Peterson, who was president of the University's Y.W.C.A. as an undergraduate, also outlined the structure of the national organization and gave the functions of each division.
The Y.W.C.A. should start new projects at K.U., allowing other groups to adopt the new ideas, Miss Peterson said.
Australians Pay High Car Prices
Sydney, Australia—(U.P.) U s e d 1949-model American cars are bringing fantastic prices these days. Dealers are cashing in on the cut in dollar allocation for automobiles.
Distributors of new cars are being offered bonuses as high as $2,240 "under the lap" by private buyers who resell them to used-car dealers.
One leading American distributor said the car racket has reached unprecedented proportions since devaluation of the Australian pound.
"Buyers are offering us as much as A£1,000 extra for a new car selling for A£3,000 ($6,720).
One city dealer advised customers to lose no time because "It will soon be impossible to buy a car at a reasonable price."
His "reasonable" price included:
His 'reasonable' price included:
A 1948 Ford sedan, that had 1,100 miles,
for A1,6195 $3,796). Price when new, for A297 ($2.075).

Producers Resist UMW Plans
Pittsburgh, Pa., Dec. 2—(U.P.) Coal producers determined today to maintain a solid front against John L. Lewis' divide-and-conquer contract plans.
They blasted the union leader's new three-day week maneuver as destructive to the industry, and indicated they would continue to resist his attempts to negotiate individual or sectional contracts. However, government officials believed the coal dispute would be settled without another strike.
Less than 12 hours after the year's fourth coal walkout began Wednesday midnight, Mr. Lewis ordered the 400,000 soft coal miners back to work Monday and placed the entire industry on a three-day week until further notice. The move was calculated to reduce gradually the bituminous and antiracite coal stockpiles of more than 30 million tons in order to enhance the United Mine Workers' bargaining position.
A resolution approved by the U.M.W. policy committee in New York authorized negotiation of contracts with individual coal companies, whereupon the work week would be extended to the regular five days. U.M.W. contracts with the coal operators expired the past June 30.
George H. Love, president of the Pittsburgh Consolidation Coal Co. and chief spokesman for the Northern and Western operators during the past negotiations, served notice that the three-day work order does not alter the operators' position in the bitter contract battle.
"This dictatorial power exercised by one man." Mr. Love added, "Is destructive to the coal industry and everyone who earns his living in it." Love reiterated the industry stand that it cannot afford to grant concessions that would increase the cost of coal.
Presidential Adviser Steelman cautioned newsmen in Key West that he does not regard Mr. Lewis' action as anything more than a truce but he said it was an indication that a settlement in the coal dispute will be reached gradually, without another walkout. Steelman said Mr. Truman had a pretty good idea for "two or three days" that the strike would end on the terms announced yesterday by Mr. Lewis.
KU Church Group To Adopt Student
The Kansas university Westminster fellowship is bringing a displaced person student to the campus, Marilynn Lee, chairman of the organization's student scholarship committee, has announced. The students are brought to this country with the understanding that they will become citizens.
The Presbyterian students will be the first local group to adopt a D.P. student, although 200 have been placed in colleges and universities in the United States by the World Student Service fund. Chancellor Deane W. Malott is one of the 38 sponsors of this organization.
The K.U. Presbyterian students will guide and financially aid the student through the first year on the campus. The committee will ask all Presbyterian students attending K.U. to aid in the project.
The D.P. student will live with Dr. and Mrs. John H. Patton while attending the university. Dr. Fatton is the director of the Westminster foundation and the Presbyterian University pastor.
Members of the student scholarship committee making arrangements for the student, are: Leon Stromire, education sophomore; Robert Petitt, College senior; Patricia Speer, fine arts senior; Mrs. Rollin Wade; Donald F. Kerle, education sophomore; Robert Dale Judy, graduate student, and Miss Lee.
Thief Gives Return Address
Augusta, Ga.—(U.P.)-Augusta police have run into an auto thief with manners. They found an abandoned car in downtown Augusta with this note: "This car belongs to Mrs. J. J. Scarborough, care of Southern Bell Telephone Co., Eastman, Ga. Please let her know."
Viennese Zither Player Prefers Wine Cellar To British Show Life
London—(U.P)—Britons have gone music crazy over one man with a zither.
The zither is a musical instrument which dates back to biblical times. The Queen of Sheba played it to amuse Solomon. Ruth and her maidens entertained their men friends with it.
93-Year-Old Driver Is Safety Model
Newburyport, Mass.—(U.P.)—Chas L. Davis, 93, who has been driving an automobile so long he can't remember when he first sat behind a wheel, offers a two-word safety message: "Be Alert."
Mr. Davis still drives daily to his drug store from his home. The man who probably is the state's oldest regular driver has a good word for most women motorists.
"As a rule," he says, "I think they are a little more careful than the men. But some of them don't know how to drive and never will.
He thinks most of today's speeding is done by a few "know-it-all" young drivers.
"Sometimes when I am walking across the street I will notice cars approaching. If they slow down, then they usually are driven by women."
"You've got to be alert all the time," he says to those who seek driving tips from him.
Mr. Davis, who drives his car through the nearby countryside almost every day, operates on the road year-round unmindful of winter snow, ice or slush.
Today, a 50-year-old Viennese cellar musician has Britons throughout the country humming his wistful tunes and talking about his zither.
Anton Karas was earning a few schillings a day plucking away at his instrument in a wine cellar in Vienna when Carol Reed, producer, persuaded the shy zither player to come to Britain to play the background music for his latest film "The Third Man."
For six weeks the tall, bespectacled musician lived in a world of dreams. He earned £125 sterling a week instead of 125 schillings.
His weird, soulful tunes gripped director Reed and his stars, Orson Welles, Joseph Cotten and Valli, the Italian star, and became the life of the film.
Three weeks ago the film was shown for the first time in Britain. Since that date, thousands of people have crowded music shops to buy records of the zither tunes and copies of Karas' music.
About every fourth song on the radio is "The Harry Lyme Theme Song," the song of the film.
But the Viennese musician has taken his zither and his haunting tunes back to Vienna. Worth a fortune to any enterprising night club owner, Mr. Karas prefers a few schillings a day and his wine cellar, described by friends as "an upholstered sewer," to a life of plenty.

Retirement Is A Joke To The Oldest Workers
Washington—(U.P.)Most men dream of retiring at 60 or so to a life of carpet slippers, pipes and rocking chairs, and whistling for a small boy to bring another cool one while they watch the world roll by.
But pin the old guys down, and you get another story. An insurance company in Minnesota recently pinned down 3,000 policyholders and got some startling answers.
The question posed to the prospective retirees was:
"If you knew right now that you could be financially able to retire when you reach the age of 55 or 60, how would you expect to spend your retirement years?"
There apparently was much thought behind the answers. About one-third of those who answered the survey said they would keep right on doing what they had been doing all along. Just as long as they were able. They'd start living off their retirement income only when their limbs and breath gave out and they no longer could keep up the pace.
Another 33 per cent of the policy-holders admitted they planned to use their retirement funds to ease off a little on the more strenuous way of life. This group looks forward to a more leisurely way of life—a chance to take more time for hobbies, religious and community work, study and self-improvement, "and maybe to read the books I've been putting off reading all these years."
A lot of the persons in this group would make a complete shift from their present occupations and take on something a little easier. Some would like a hobby that would bring in a little tobacco money. Some want a little light truck-farming, hog or chicken-raising, or "fancy" livestock.
Just about half of those who answered the survey, though, mentioned they would like to engage in some kind of public or community service. They would help run the Boy Scouts, the Y.M.C.A. or a boys' club.
Members of the clergy were the least desirous of retiring. Most of them said they would not retire so long as they were physically able to stand up and preach the gospel. Only one clergyman out of five wanted to find complete leisure.
Olders workers seemed more determined to keep their chins to the grindstones than younger ones. Only 28 per cent of those now under 40 wanted to continue work. Those over 40 have a different idea, apparently.
FTC Orders Ipana To Stop False Ads
Washington—(U.P.)—The Federal Trade Commission has ordered the Bristol-Myers company, New York, to stop claiming its Ipana toothpaste stops or prevents "pink toothbrush."
It has also ordered the company to discontinue other "misrepresentations" in advertising to the effect that:
1. Ipana is a favorite of dentists.
2. Americans should give up their "soft, well-cooked" meals and chew on bones and coarse foods to keep their gums and teeth in good condition.
The F.T.C. said its investigation showed that Ipana "assists" in cleaning the teeth but is no cure-all for faulty gums. It said the company's poll of dentists was "wholly unreliable" and that a soft or coarse diet is "immaterial" to the health of teeth and gums.

Former Student Starts 'Santa' Plan
James O'Bryon, a student at the University from 1920-24, now publicity director of the Mutual Broadcasting system, is supervising a nationwide plan to collect toys and clothes for war stricken children all over the world.
"Santa Claus for All God's Children" is the name of the plan originated by Mr. O'Bryon. Articles will be sent by the American Railway Express free of cost to the sender. Packages should be sent to Foster Parents Plan for War Children, Incorporated, 5-30 47th avenue, Long Island City, N.Y. All donors are asked to send their packages within the next few days.
One 'Dumb Animal' Wants Education

Members of the class were amused today when Groeble was absent, but the dog arrived as usual and sat quietly at the foot of his master's empty chair. Perhaps he will explain to Groeble "wha' hopped" during the session he missed.
African Desert Sands May Hold Unfound Water
Copenhagen, Denmark—(U.P.) — A Danish water-finder proposes to tackle a problem which the engineers of Field Marshal Montgomery were unable to solve during the North African desert war.
Mr. Knudsen claims to have found water in the Swiss mountains in areas where nobody ever drilled successfully before. Also on the Baltic island of Bornholm he was able to register water 100 feet deep in the rock ground with his "rod."
Carl Knudsen, the sorcerer of Elismore," will begin a search for water in Algiers with a new "divining rod," which he invented.
Retired Colonel Finds Rats 'Big Game,' And It's Open Season In Washington
**Washington**—(U.P.)—Time was when the colonel would give an antelope a head start and beat it to the nearest waterhole.
Col. Warren Hardenbergh now is 87, but don't try to tell him he's slipping. The colonel thought he had gone a rung down until the other day. The old man, one of the few who served in one foreign军团 and now draws a pension from the U. S. navy, has been a hater of rats for many years.
"It dates back to my sparkin' days," the colonel says, "when I was courting a fine young lady in New England."
As the old soldier-sailor tells it; he was climbing the back steps of his lady love's house and was all set to doff his derby and rap on the door when a big rat stood on his hind legs and began to sass.
Colonel Hardenbergh, who didn't carry a can in those days, looked around for a weapon. Finding none, he slipped off one of his button shoes and went at the rodent with all of his strength, which in those days was considerable. The colonel won, of course.
"I scared the devil out of that rat," he told his friends over coffee later in the morning, "but I missed him." It worried the old man, who once got three moose with a single bullet, according to witnesses.
The colonel won, or course.
Not long ago the colonel, who lives in an apartment overlooking a busy Washington thoroughfare was sitting by the window with his pretty little wife, Frances. She spied a rat crossing the street. The colonel hauled out a high powered rifle, drew a bread, and squeezed the trigger.
The colonel needed something to bolster his ego after this bad shooting. It wasn't long before the janitor of the building called and told him a rat was seen in the basement. Colonel Hardenberg sat
in the basement all day. Finally he saw the rat.
"I could see him making for his hole," the old gentleman said. "But I gave him a sporting chance. Then he turned away and tween the eyes, and that's a fact."
The colonel has felt better ever since.
Profane Conduct Of Employer Good Reason To Quit Job
Davenport, Iowa —(U.P.)—Because his boss criticized him with profanity and shouting, Charles P. Chapman is entitled to unemployment compensation dating from April, 1948. A court upheld Chapman's claim, ruling that unjust accusations and profane conduct afforded Chapman a good cause for quitting his job.

History Club Hears Davis
---
lack of a common language and religion has not kept Switzerland from becoming "the oldest surviving democracy in the world." W.W. Davis, professor of history, told the History club Thursday.
Speaking to members of Phi Alpha Theta, national history fraternity, Professor Davis explained how the small republic could stay out of two world wars.
"Switzerland has not reverted to monarchy, but has been ruled by the people by electoral processes" Professor Davis said. "I believe if I had to flee the United States, I would pick Switzerland."
He pointed out that this small country was not attacked in World War II because of its natural fortifications and the trained citizenry.
"The most remarkable thing of Switzerland is the success of its people in making a go of that country under extreme difficulties," Professor Davis said.
"The Swiss have a well balanced system of economy," he said. "They have not lost face and have stayed out of two great wars."
The size of Switzerland is less than one-fifth the size of Kansas. Two-thirds of its area is rugged mountains.
Professor Davis is a member of the Swiss Alpine club and has visited Switzerland several times.
AWS Group Plans Future Activities
Members of the Associated Women Students' precincts and precinct leaders met Tuesday to discuss plans for the future.
Each woman who does not live in an organized house is a member of a precinct and is being contacted by one of her precinct's try captains.
Grace Gwinner, A.W.S. president and Helen Piller, A.W.S. personne chairman, said the precincts had been organized so that women living in homes over Lawrence could become acquainted with other women students living in their neighborhood. Each precinct will hold regular meetings where future activities and programs will be announced by the captains.
A representative to A.W.S. and one to Y.W.C.A. will be elected by each precinct.
Counselors for the Associated Women Students will meet together as a group for the last time at 9 a.m. Saturday in the Pine room of the Union building.
Danish People Learn English By Radio
Ogenhagen, Denmark — (U.P.) One-eighth of the Danish population has listened to the English lessons on the Danish radio network in the course of 20 years.
This figure illustrates the great interest among the Danish people to learn English. American and British tourists in Denmark are surprised that most Danish citizens have a basic knowledge of English.
For 20 years, P.O. Boisen has been the teacher of this radio class in English, lecturing three times a week, and a total of 500,000 listeners have been his pupils.

Rich Begger Bey Divorced When Wife Learns Secret
Cairo, Egypt—(U.R.)—The Bey kept her in furs, Persian carpets and rare curios, but she divorced him because he was a beggar.
That is the amazing story of at Prince Charming who posed as a pauper and filled his coffers with the alms he received every day in the streets of Cairo. He lived in great luxury, but spent his days whining about his misery.
ROLLERDROME
The Cairo police unfolded the strange tale of the beggar Bey.
Block south Post Office — Phone 2042 or 2359
It started some six months ago when a handsome young man entered the home of a well-to-do widow and asked her for the hand of her beautiful young daughter.
His clothes, appearance, language and manners spoke of his high birth and comfortable living. The delight- ed woman accented.
The wedding was one of the most elaborate to be seen. This Prince Charming who had appeared from the skies spent lavishly that day.
The numerous guests were amazed at the food, the music and the dancers he brought for the occasion. The royal feast went on until the early hours of the morning and the blushing bride was the envy of all her neighbors.
Our hero carried his bride over the treshold of a richly furnished house and the girl pinched herself to make sure she was not dreaming. Persian carpets covered the floors, rare curios rested on shelves, paintings by old masters hung on tapestried walls and in the corner stood a piano.
One day he left the house and failed to return. She fretted and worried, until one week later the police summoned her.
For six happy months the bride lived in splendor. Her wishes were his commands, her requests his pleasure to perform. Hardly a day passed without his getting her some new gift.
He was no playboy, either. Each day he would leave the house early in the morning and return, exhausted, late at night. The business of supervising lands and buildings is tiring him out, she thought.
"Your husband has been arrested," they informed her.
Why? Had he committed a crime, engaged in politics?
"No," replied the sergeant. "He was a beggar."
But he had been a clever beggar. One day he posed as a Palestinian refugee, the next as a jobless student thrown out because of his political convictions. People pitted him and gave him money. He had bought four buildings in Cairo, a farm and kept his wife happy.
The beggar Bey's bride divorced him.
Japanese Bombs Plague New Guinea Reconstruction
Port Moresby, New Guinea—(U.P)
-Unexploded Japanese bombs and ammunition are holding up reconstruction work in the Rabaul area.
A five-man Australian bomb disposal unit has collected about 2,000 shells and 2000 bombs at Rapopo, new site for Rabaul township, in the past month.
Rapopo is littered with explosives and construction of the new town can't begin because workers hesitate to use tractors and bulldozers for fear they may be blown up.
Army bomb removers responsible for disposing of remaining was explosives in New Guinea say that at the present rate they will be on the job another six or seven years.

The Editorial Page-
UN Is Not A Failure
The United Nations organization has come in for considerable grass root criticism of late. The boys around the cracker barrel are beginning to talk of diplomats who are "just making jobs for themselves" at Lake Success. They're beginning to complain that the entire undertaking is a tremendous waste of time and money and effort; that the U.S. might as well move out of the mess and "let the rest stew in their own juice." One recent criticism of the U. N. was that there were a great many Communists within its ranks.
It's easy to criticize the organization, just as it's easy to overlook the accomplishments. When Vishinsky and Jessup wrangle publicly, it's headlines. When smaller committees agree on something it's boring. No news from the U. N. is usually good news. Lots of news usually means that someone is calling someone else a warmonger.
Nevertheless, we think the U. N. is the only hope we have at present to maintain peace in the world. True, it has fallen short of many expectations; but neither has it been the failure its diehard critics predicted it would be.
The U. N. brings international issues into the open. It serves as an excellent sounding board for public opinion. While it has emphasized the differences between Russia and the U.S., it is doubtful if the U. S., France, Britain, and a large number of smaller nations, could have achieved the degree of unanimity they now have without the public discussion of points of international differences.
But most important of all is the fact that the U. N. exists. That the nations of the world recognize international cooperation as a desirable thing, and will participate in an organization erected for that purpose, is in itself encouraging.
Pensions Coming Up
Fifteen years ago old people were expected to live on their life savings or to be supported by their families, and those who had neither lived on charity or went to the poor farm.
At present we are much too civilized to let such a barbaric tradition exist and therefore the well-being of those who reach the age of 65 is a concern of government, of unions, and of industry.
What is the cause of this change in society's viewpoint? It is a simple matter that can be explained by a few statistics. In 1925 there were 20 young persons (20 to 64) for every person 65 and over. Now there are 12 young persons for every person 65 and over. The cause of this is an increase in the life expectancy of the average American.
Now you ask, "What does all this mean to me, a college student?" Another simple matter. As more and more elderly people retire, the burden on those who are under 65 will grow. That means that the workers, which all of us eventually expect to be, will find that they are putting in more time to produce for the comfort of those in retirement, instead of working for their own enjoyment.
Just how heavy this pension burden will become for the worker depends upon the ratio of increase of the number of persons 65 or over to the increase of persons between 20 and 64 years. Actually the number of workers will increase but not nearly as rapidly as the over-64 age group.
That is only a part of the story. Because of the increase in numbers the political power of the over-64 group will grow. Politicians, thus, are becoming more and more inclined to make special appeals to this growing group.
This last statement is emphasized by the fact that politicians have found that the older group of people tend to exercise their voting power more consistently than do younger people.
The consequences of all this has been demonstrated in recent weeks. With the strike of aluminum workers the total number of laborers striking for pensions was boosted to approximately 1,520,000 of men, for a time.
The only solution to this problem is either to do away with those who reach the age of 65 or to go back to "the good old days" when people were expected to provide for themselves.
Since the first involves violation of moral and legal laws it seems more advisable to dispense with the "welfare state" and its consequent approach to socialism and let the individual take care of himself and not burden the youth of society as a whole.
—Nelson Ober.
- Letters To The Editor
Believing that much of the rhetoric appearing in your columns was originated in the minds of disappointed favor seekers, I have until this time wished to remain silent. The insulting letter of the last issue of the Kansan has changed my mind.
ASC Answer
Dear Editor:
In my opinion, these letters which appear under the label "Dear Editor" and are filled with accusations
and half-truths, speak not ill but well of the actions of the A. S. C. If the average student could answer my phone for one day, he would be amazed at the number of favors and special privileges begged of the council. He would be more amazed at the threats of reprisal which follow a denial of these requests.
I say the derogatory letters speak well of the Council as they show the lack of susceptibility to special interest groups. I make this indictment
YM To Have Informal Talks
A number of informal discussion groups will be organized in the next week it was decided at a meeting of the Y.M.C.A. cabinet, Wednesday.
The meetings will be set up and administered by members of the cabinet. They will be held in the evenings at private homes, rooms of the Union, and at organized houses. All those interested are urged to participate. Discussion topics and the meeting dates will be announced later.
A staff is being chosen to publish a weekly bulletin for members of the Y.M.C.A. "The purpose of the publication is to inform the members of the many activities and results of different committee meetings." M. David Riggs, general secretary, said.
The Rocky Mountain Y.M.C.A.-
Y.W.C.A. regional conference will be held at the Carver Community building, 1608 Campbell St., in Kansas City, Mo. The conferences will begin Friday at 6 p.m. and last until Sunday afternoon Dec. 4.
Regional projects and the Estes conference to be held in Colorado this summer will be topics of the meeting.
Those wishing to attend the conference should contact Mr. Riggs before Friday noon.
Men wishing to work on the Y-Orpheum are asked to call or see Mr.Riggs at his office in the Union.
of the special interest groups, not because they criticize, but because of the way they criticize. If the letters were factual, they would be indictments of the Council, but as propaganda methods of "name-calling" and "association", they indict the writer with ignorance.
In the last epistle the only fact mentioned was the incident surrounding the Forensic league appropriation. It is my duty to break a tie one way or another. I sincerely believe the intramural speech program to be of considerable more worth than $120. I am not trying to infer this opinion to be infallible, but only honest.
In regard to the honor of the Council members in voting on this appropriation, Robert Bennett disqualified himself from voting on the appropriation. He is president of the Forensic league.
Mr. Editor, since I hope this to be my first and last letter to your column. I should like to invite anyone to attend our meetings and to voice their opinions there, or if they wish to remain unknown, to phone me for explanations. The entire Council was elected in a duly called election and yet awaits the truthful criticism of its constituents.

"Now to read you the most stupid paper ever turned in by a student of mine."
Goal Of Guatemala Engineer Is National Air Ambulance
Washington—(U.P.)—William F. Samayoa wants medicine and doctors put on wings so they can get to more people faster.
Mr. Samayoa thinks the matter more urgent than ever, now that people are wondering about civilian defense against atomic attack.
So Mr. Samayoa is pounding one government doors and persistently advancing his 10-year-old dream of a national air ambulance service to be financed like other group health and hospitalization plans. Eventually, he would like to see it take on international scope.
Nothing but encouragement has met his efforts but you can't run even a non-profit, humanitarian enterprise on encouragement alone.
The Guatemala-born aeronautical engineer and language instructor believes the Civil Air Patrol, which has wings in every state, is a proper framework within which to build an ambulance service using helicopters and hospital planes.
"Somebody has to fight for this," the engineer said. "To stop now would be like swimming 10 miles and drowning 10 feet from shore."
Without committing itself, the Air Force has written Mr. Samayoa an encouraging letter. He carries it wiil dozens of others. One is from Cleaner Roosevelt suggesting he be sent to Ariane Airlines, Inc. Another is from Thomas W. Ryan, New York state director of safety, introducing him to the Mayo Clinic and emphatically stating he is "NO crackpot."
The helicopters and airplanes could perform pinpoint rescues at train wrecks, aircraft accidents, on mountain peaks and in otherwise inaccessible places.
He proposes that a national air ambulance service be established with the first financing from fund-raising campaigns and the government. He believes charitable organizations, hospitalization schemes, labor unions, industrial enterprises and flat fees from non-members would keep it well profitable.
They would be invaluable in disasters, epidemics or in mining communities where other means of rescue frequently fail. In case of atomic attack they would be a means of evacuating wounded and dead and getting doctors and supplies.
They could take patients from small towns to hospitals in large cities.
"This plan could mean co-ordinated nation-wide medical service," Mr. Samayoa says. "And the wounded or ill could be transported much more smoothly and rapidly."
More than 1,000,000 persons are injured, 100,000 of them permanently In automobile accidents every year. Some 30,000 are killed. There are 22,000,000 subscribers to various hospitalization plans and 10 per cent use the facilities made available every year. There are 150,000,000 Americans.
Mr. Samayoa deduces that probably 150,000 persons would use his ambulances the first year.
The scheme might cost $10,000-000 to $15,000,000 annually, but he is confident it could be made to pay. The Minnesota house of representatives endorsed the plan in a resolution several years ago.
Gael Sullivan, when exeive director of the Democratic national committee, mentioned the plan to President Truman, Samayoa said, and the reaction was that "opposing it is like opposing virtue."
When Mr. Holt wounded a 200-pound eight-point buck in the foreleg, he couldn't chase it with his gun under the Bent Mountain Hunting club rules, so he went for it bare handed.
Hunter Clubs Deer, Finishes With Knife

When the deer turned and charged, Mr. Holt picked up a stick and stunned it, wrestled it to the ground, and killed it with a knife stab in the heart. Two prongs of the deer's antlers snapped off in the wind threshing, Mr. Holt said.
Roanoke, Va<sub>2</sub> - (U.P) - Alger Holt says if you can't finish off a deer with your gun, use a club and a knife.

Chatting informally at their first meeting Wednesday are nine members of the Mitchell county club, one of the 115 Statewide Activities groups which were organized this week. From left to right are: George Betz, College sophomore; Donald Shurtz, fine arts sophomore; John Bergmann, College junior; Don Porter, chairman, College sophomore; Richard Conroy, College senior; June Porter, College freshman; Phyllis Noah, business junior; Robert Reid, engineering freshman; and Douglas Margreiter, pharmacy sophomore.
Sale Of Christmas Seals Reported 'Lagging A Bit'
The sale of Christmas seals from booths in the Union building, Fraser and Strong halls "are lagging a bit." reported Margo A. Taylor, chairman of the campus drive. Total sales are 2,000 seals.
"The campus drive was originally scheduled to last until Friday," Miss Taylor said. "But we are installing boxes at book stores, restaurants and other stores in Lawrence. The boxes will be labeled, 'Buy Seals With Your Change,' and they will remain in the stores until Wednesday, Dec. 21."
The University sales are conducted by the Douglas County Tuberculosis association. The money will be used for the prevention and treatment of tuberculosis, and for health education.
The National Tuberculosis association has listed the following true-false questions. How many can you answer?
TB is a disease a person is born with.
Working hard in a damp, dirty place is what gives persons TB. Older persons can forget about
TB; only young persons have it
It's easy to know when one has
been hurt.
Why treat TB? Persons who have it are "goners" anyhow.
One can tell which persons have TB just by looking at them.
Each of the above questions is false. Here are true statements concerning the questions:
No child has TB when he is born.
TB can occur on any job or in any place where someone who has TB is spreading the germs to other persons.
Anybody can have TB, at any age. Our chance of having TB during our most valuable working or student years is many times greater than of having it when we are children.
In the early stages TB doesn't make us sick.
Persons who have early TB look fine, and feel fine. It takes an X-ray to determine whether TB has damaged their lungs.
When TB is found early and treated quickly, it almost always can be cured.
Unitarians Sponsor Talk On Norway
Dr. O. Myking Mehus will speak on "Norway and the Present Crisis" at 4 p.m. Sunday in the Pine room of the Union. Dr. Mehus is sponsored by the Unitarian Liberal fellowship.
Dr. Mehus visited Norway the past summer and will discuss social legislation by the labor government, including socialized medicine, government ownership of public utilities, recent national elections and the Norwegians' attitude toward Russia. For the past six years he has been the chief of education and vocational rehabilitation, Veterans' administration at Kansas City, Mo.
Everyone is invited to attend.
Music Debate Recital Sunday
Mu Phi Epsilon, national honorary music sorority, will present its annual fall recital at 4 p.m. Sunday in Strong auditorium. The theme of the program will be "A Musical Debate" consisting of three sections or questions.
Members of the sorority will perform musically the arguments of each side of the questions.
Part one of the debate is entitled "Consonance versus Dissonance." A brass quartet and a group of madrigel singers will express "close" harmony. Two piano solos and a woodwind ensemble will tell the modern harmony side of the argument.
Part two will contain two numbers from grand opera and a chorus number from light opera. Part three, "Classic versus Popular," has a piano and a vocal solo.
"College Daze," Student Union activities' humorous musical production, will be staged May 2, 3, 4, and 5.
'College Daze' Will Be In May
Edith Malott, College senior, is producer and Jerome Maudl, education junior, is musical director.
UN Scheduled To Ignore Pleas Of Nationalists
Lake Success, N.Y., Dec. 2—(U.P.) The United Nations' top political committee was slated today to adopt an American-designed "hands off" policy on China, despite redoubled Nationalist pleas for tougher action.
The appeal of Dr. Tingfu F. Tsiang, Nationalist delegate, for a ban on diplomatic recognition of the communists and imposition of "moral sanctions" did not appear to have made any noticeable dent in the majority favoring "brushoff" tactics on the China case.
The Soviet block, contending that the credentials of the "Kuoimintang" delegation no longer are valid, has refused to join the debate and has sent only third-rung delegates to sit in and listen. Yugoslavia, following its former Cominform partners in this instance, has announced it will not vote on the question.
The special political committee wrestling with the Palestine problem continued debate on the Arab refugee problem while awaiting a sub-committee report recommending that the U.N. reaffirm the 2-year-old partition provision for permanent international control of Jerusalem.
In a meeting Thursday night, the sub-group backed strict internationalization in the face of a new warning by Israel that the U.N. would not be able to take over control of an "unwilling population."
Before the vote on the China question, Great Britain planned to answer Mr. Tsiang's blunt-worded criticism of their reported intention to recognize the Communists within the next few months. The Nationalist delegate, with startling directness, told Great Britain:
1. To respect the political independence of China and to be guided by the principles of the charter in their relations with China.
The American formula for a new style "open door" in China, co-sponsored by Australia, Mexico, Pakistan, and the Philippines, would call on all nations:
"It is unimaginable that any freedom-loving people could deliberately choose to jeopardize the whole future of China for the sum of one billion dollars." The figure represents Great Britain's investment in China.
"2. To respect the right of the people of China now and in the future to choose freely their political institutions and to maintain a government independent of foreign control;
4. To refrain from (A) Seeking to acquire spheres of influence or to create foreign-controlled regimes within the territory of special rights or privileges within the territory of China."
"3. To respect existing treaties relating to China;

New Vitamin Protects Against Atomic Radiation
Lakeland, Fla., Dec. 2—(U.R.)-Isolation of "vitamin P," which affers protection against atomic radiation and can be produced cheaply from citrus waste, was announced here today by two scientists.
Students To See Half Of Games
Students again will see only half of KU's home basketball games this winter. The Jayhawks athletic department announced today that all holders of identification cards must make a choice of two sets of tickets for the 8-game 1949-1950 Hoch auditorium slate. Students will not be required to purchase any additional basketball tickets as was the case last year, the department said.
Campus Assumes Festive Appearance
Set number 1 has been designated as Purdue, Iowa State, Nebraska, and Kansas State. Set number 2 carries Omaha, Drake, Missouri, Colorado.
Earl Falkenstein athletic business manager, said he saw little encouragement for the public being able to purchase tickets this winter, although if space permits at game time they will be sold.
the athletic office will start distribution of ducats next Monday and those desiring them must make a choice before Saturday, Dec. 10, the day Kansas opens at home against Purdue.
Schmidt Will Sing Sunday
Reinhold Schmidt, associate professor of voice, will sing the bass role in Handel's "Messiah" at Hot Springs, Ark., Sunday. The oratorio will be presented by the Hot Springs Choral club.
The campus is beginning to take on a festive appearance due to the installation of Christmas decorations by buildings and grounds workmen. Colored lights on the shrubbery in front of Strong hall, lights on the Natural History museum, and lights which form a cross in the windows in back of Watson library make up the exterior decoration scheme.
"We think it is the largest tree the University has ever had," Ray Ottinger, instructor in design, said. "It may not be possible to balance the tree on the revolving stand due to its height."
If the tree is balanced on the revolving stand, the lights will connect with electric current through a device that works with two rollers riding in two circular copper tracts.
Students of the design department have strung 36 quarts of popcorn to decorate the tree. Cranberries, dolls, and other old-fashioned decorations will be placed on the tree by faculty members of the design department.
A 22-foot Christmas tree is being set up in the rotunda of Strong hall today under the supervision of the design department.
A 12-foot white Christmas tree with colored lights and ornaments will be decorated at 4 p.m. today in the main lounge of the Union. It will be further lighted by colored spot lights. The main lounge will be deci-
The tree was selected from a farm about four miles west of Lawrence. Lee Robinson, owner of the farm, sold the cedar tree to the University at a special price of $5.
orated by wreathes and ropes of green spruce hung in the arches through the middle of the room.
In the bookstore spruce ropes have been strung above the counters. A small Christmas scene with candle figures, has been placed on a center table.
Emphasis this year will be on outside decorations. A 16-foot green tree with colored lights will be placed in the northwest corner of the terrace. On each side of it along the north and west walls will be three "candy canes" ranging in height from 6 to 10 feet. Members of Union activities will place a large "Merry Christmas" sign over the entrance to the Union. On either side of it will be a 10-foot candy cane.
The Palm room will have a 9-foot white tree decorated with colored lights. Green wreathes will be hung in the ballroom.

Dr. Boris Sokoloff and Dr. James B. Redd, of Florida Southern college's bio-research laboratory, said that after three years of work they now have a large quantity of the vitamin on hand for clinical tests.
They will offer detailed information on the production in a paper to be delivered Saturday at the 14th annual meeting of the Florida Academy of Sciences at Deland. Sokoloff and Redd reported the results of experiments on 50 rats which were given varying doses of the vitamin and then subjected to nedr-lethal amounts of X-ray radiation. Twenty of the rats received no vitamin P at all, and 80 per cent of these died from extensive bleeding in two to three weeks. Another group received a relatively small amount of the vitamin for 10 days; of these, 40 per cent died from the effects of radiation. A third group was given large doses of the vitamin for 30 days. All but 10 per cent of these lived.
The scientists said vitamin P has been known as a factor in correcting the functions of small blood vessels. Radiation from the atom bomb blasts at Hiroshima and Nagasaki caused changes in the chemical structure of such vessels, making them fragile and leading to excessive bleeding.
Sokoloff and Redd said that they sought to produce vitamin P in large quantities to find out if it would protect animals against a near-lethal dose of radiation. They suggested that "many medical problems associated with increased fragility of the capillary system might find a new solution" in the light of their experiment.
They suggested that the vitamin might be useful in treating cases of high blood pressure where injury to the capillary system of the kidney is the main factor. "But this therapy should be of long duration and the vitamin compound should be given in much larger doses than as been prescribed up to now," they said.
Students To Take NROTC Test
Approximately 170 Kansas high school students will take preliminary aptitude tests for the N.R.O.T.C. Saturday
J. Counts Powell, assistant professor of education, said the same tests will be given simultaneously at Concordia, Dodge City, Hutchinson, Kansas city, Liberal, Syracuse, Topeka, Wichita, and in the Military Science building at the University. Mr. Powell is in charge of the testing.
These aptitude tests will determine whether the students may become eligible for membership in the N. R.O.T.C. program at the University for the fall term of 1950.

KU Debaters Are Awarded Superior Rating
Superior ratings were given to the affirmative and negative teams of the University debate squad at the Intercollegiate Conference on World Problems Dec. 2, and Dec. 3, at the State University of Iowa.
The teams competed with squads of the Universities of Chicago, Denver, Illinois, Missouri, Notre Dame, South Dakota, and the Municipal University of Wichita. The University squad was the only entrant receiving superior ratings for both teams.
Edward Stollenwerck, College senior; and Orval Swander, College sophomore, are the members of the affirmative team. Harold Lee Turner, first law student; and Guy Goodwin, College junior, are the negative Killen assistant professor of speech, accompanied the squad to the conference.
The squad competed, in four rounds of discussion and four rounds of debate on the topic, "What Should the U. S. Policy Toward the Orient Be?"
Contestants were graded by the judges' decisions, rating given the individual speakers, and the rating given the teams. Winning seven of eight debates, the University debate squad tied with squads of the University of Wisconsin and the Municipal University of Wichita for highest honors. The squad lost to the University of Indiana.
Individual ratings awarded University debaters were: Stolenwerck superior debater; Swander, Goodwin and Turner, excellent debaters: Stolenwerck and Turner, superior discussants; Goodwin, excellent discussant.
Fifteen colleges and universities participated in the two-day debate conference.
Barbara Boling Is Calendar Girl
"Nothing like this has ever happened to me before." These were the words of Barbara Jean Boling, 1950 University calendar girl, when he was told of her selection.
The fine arts sophomore represented Delta Gamma in the calendar girl contest which was sponsored by the K.U. calendar staff She was chosen from a field of nine candidates.
Selection was made on the basis of pictures submitted to the staff. Candidates were photographed in school clothes to be more representative of University women.
Miss Boling is from Leavenworth

A Christmas dance was planned at a meeting of Delta Sigma Pi Dec. 2. The dance will be held Friday in the Big Six ballroom at the Eldridge hotel. Pledges of the fraternity will entertain at the dance.
Students To Select Basketball Tickets
The athletic office began distributing student basketball tickets today, Earl Falkenstein, athletic business manager, announced.
Students holding identification cards have until Saturday to make their choice of two sets of tickets for the 1949-50 home basketball games.
Set number one includes games with Purdue university, Iowa State college, University of Nebraska, and Kansas State college. Set number two carries the University of Oklahoma, Drake university, University of Missouri, and University of Colorado.
Officials May Study OU Fire
Norman, Okla., Dec. 5—(U.P.)T he dormitory fire which killed three University of Oklahoma students and injured 70 others may be investigated by the state legislature, officials said today.
However, a coroner's jury ruled there was no evidence of negligence in the fire Dec. 3.
Oklahoma house speaker Walter Billingsley said an investigation is a 'moral duty we cannot shirk." The state legislature is now in the second week of a special session at Oklahoma City.
The origin of the fire still is undetermined.
A six-man coroner's jury deliberated less than five minutes Sunday after hearing testimony of 60 students who fled the burning building.
KANSAS-Autumn weather in December will continue in Kansas for a few more days. The weatherman forecasts fair and warmer today, tonight and Tuesday. The high today will be in the mid-50's. The low tonight will be from 25 to 35 degrees.
Campus fire chief Claude Summer testified "40 fire trucks couldn't have done us any good at that fire."

Marvin Small, '49, was appointed assistant general secretary of the University of Kansas Alumni association today. The announcement was made by Fred Ellsworth, Alumni secretary.
Marvin Small,'49, Named Assistant Alumni Secretary
Since he was graduated Mr. Small had been employed by an insurance company in Kansas City, Mo.
Mr. Ellsworth said that the former football player will be the first full-time assistant general secretary the Alumni association has had. Mr. Small's duties will include all phases of K.U. alumni activities. He was president of the 1949 senior class.
This past fall the former end served as "chief quarterback" of the K.U. Quarterback club in Kansas City. He was elected secretary of the Kansas City alumni chapter in November.
KU Prepared For Influenza
If an influenza epidemic should strike, the University health service will be prepared to give influenza shots as in the past, Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, Health service director said.
"We have been giving 'flu' shots all fall and anyone who wishes to take them may come to the hospital and get them. However, there is no reason to take them now as there is no respiration influenza in the area."
Canuteson said that according to federal health reports received weekly at the hospital, there is no respiratory influenza in any incidence approaching an epidemic in the U.S. at the present time.
"There are, however, a number of cases of intestinal influenza in California, but they are caused by a different virus." he said.
Dr. Canuteson explained that the Health service is following all reports closely and will be ready to handle an epidemic if one should occur.

Nobel Cain, left, widely-known choral composer and conductor, examines a copy of his new composition, "To Music," with D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts. Mr. Cain conducted the rehearsal of the University A Cappella choir Dec. 2, and presented the number to the choir and its director, Dean Swarthout, at that time.
Each copy of "To Music" is inscribed "To Donald M. Swarthout and the A Cappella choir of the University of Kansas." Words to the music are from a poem by Robert Herrick, 17th century English writer.
Two Members Of AEC Resign
Washington. Dec. 5—(U.P.)—President Truman's atomic job headache have just begun.
Even if he finds a suitable replacement for David E. Lilienth as chairman of the atomic energy commission, by Friday, June 30,1950, he will have to find two new members for the A.E.C.
Commissioners Sumner T. Pike and Lewis L. Strauss are not going to "stand still," according to friends, for renomination when their terms run out at the end of this fiscal year.
Mr. Lilienthal wants to leave Saturday Dec. 31. If Mr. Truman, now on vacation at Key West, Fla., appoints a successor by that deadline, it will have to be for the six months of Mr. Lilienthal's unexpired term.
The Republican 80th congress, confident that the G.O.P. would have the say-so about atomic commissioners in 1949, passed legislation cutting all A.E.C. terms off as of Friday, June 30, 1950. New commissioners then will be appointed for staggered terms one, one, two, three, four, and five years.
It turned out that the Democrats won the 1948 congressional elections, and the patronage appointments that went with it, but the Republican law went on the books.
So President Truman must name new A.E.C. members for terms starting on Friday, June 30, 1950. Mr. Pike and Mr. Strauss, like Mr. Lilienthal, have served on the commission since it took the atomic energy project over Jan. 1, 1947.
Since the original commission took control, two members—W. Way. mack and Dr. Robert F. Bacher—have resigned. To replace them President Truman named Gordon Dean and Prof. H. D. Smyth.
Professors Smyth and Mr. Dean, their friends believe, will accept reappointment at the end of the year. But not Pike and Strauss, associates say. They will have served 3½ years "And," one of their colleagues said, "that is long enough in a man-killing job like this."
Mr. Pike and Mr. Strauss can quit in good conscience, their associates say. The atomic project is in high gear. Bomb designs, perhaps 10 times more effective than the originals that defeated Japan, have been perfected.
Senior Class Discusses Gift, Plans Activities
An ink fountain and a building similar in construction to Danforth chapel were suggested by Bennett. The building would be used as an information and ticket booth, and as a magazine distribution center.
Robert Bennett, senior class gift chairman, presented gift possibilities for the class of '50 at a dinner meeting Sunday of the officers, chairmen, and committee members of the class. The meeting was held at the Pi Beta Phi sorority house.
Stanley Englund, class day chairman, proposed that the date of class day be changed from April 1 to May 5 or May 12, but no action was taken. Suggestions for class day activities included an outing at Lone Star lake, a dance, and a campus picnic.
Charles Steeper, activities chairman, reported on plans for a soap box derby in which all organized houses will be asked to participate.
Sally Pegues, breakfast chairman, reported that the breakfast will be open to seniors only and not to parents. The prophecy, skits, and class history will be given at the breakfast.
In the absence of Craig Hampton, prophecy chairman, Otis "Bud" Hill reported on plans to write the class of '50 prophecy in the form of a magazine or newspaper, possibly the University Daily Kansan, dated 25 years from now.
Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary,
announced that Marvin Small,'49,
will be assistant alumni secretary.
"The organization of a class is one of the most important parts of a university," Mr. Ellsworth said in an informal talk to the group. "I have been here 25 years and this is the first class that has gone forward like this one."
SAI Celebrates Incorporation Day
Members of Sigma Alpha Iota, professional music sorority, met Dec. 1 for a tea at the Chi Omega sorority house. They celebrated national incorporation day, a day set aside to collect funds for the SAI scholarship foundation established to honor two deceased members of the sorority who were prominent in the field of music.
Kitty Walter, fine arts senior, and Marilyn Barr and Phyllis McFarland, fine arts sophomores, presented a musicale which included numbers by Brahms and Pucini.
Civilization A Matter Of Climate, Dr.Ise Tells Lutheran Students
Civilization is a matter of climate Dr. John Ise, professor of economics, told members of the Lutheran student association Sunday. "Go North, young man," said Dr. Ise, "to witness civilization at its best."
Denmark is a nation of Christian and civilized individuals living simply and contentedly, Dr. Ise said. The country, he said, is far advanced in providing an up-to-date system of insurance, including old age and unemployment, and a system of socialized medicine.
"Clean and industrious are the Dutch," Dr. Ise noted. Share and share alike is their democratic idea. Dutch homes have been built to last. This indicates national stability and a more permanent interest in things, Dr. Ise said.
Contrast between wealth and poverty in Belgium is distinct Dr. Ise found. Investments are in cathedrals rather than in homes at the expense of a high living standard
There are too many Swiss and not enough Switzerland, Dr. Ise
points out. Evidence of poverty is visible despite the nation's superficial appearance of wealth.
Though impressed by the "flavor of centuries" of Italy, the old-hilled towns, walled cities, and architectural masterpieces, Dr. Ise discovered a poverty-striken nation. Wealth not invested in building cathedrals went into constructing palaces. The nation is not democratic. What the rich do not have, said Dr. Ise, the churches do.
Honesty and courtesy are English characteristics impressive to Dr. Ise. Facing their problems realistically, the English strive to share their difficulties together, said Dr. Ise. Such an honest policy, he feels is indicative of a nation's striving for democracy.

Fewer Farms; Advocates Ise
The United State's main farm problem is that we have too many farmers. John Ise, professor of economics, told a coffee and forum meeting of 150 business school association members recently.
"I have been working on the farm problem for 50 years," Professor Ise said. "The problem as I see it, is to stop farms from producing too much. This problem was bad after World War I. Farmers suffered in the depression because foreign countries were producing their own food and not buying food from the U.S. The farm problem isn't as serious as it used to be for now we are doing something about it.
"Pure competition is what is needed in farming, not subsidies... If there are ten wrong ways and one right way. Congress will then try the ten wrong ways first and then get around to trying the right way . . . We are shifting from capitalists to bureaucrats who are ruining our economy. What we do fear is communism and fascism when what we should fear is bureaucracy."
Professor Ise recommended that the government should buy all the land being farmed by share-croppers and return it to timber land. The five million workers thus released could be used for 20 to clean up the country.
Donald R. Hyten, business senior and president of B.S.A., announced that at 4 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 14, the president of R.C.A., the Radio Corporation of America would address a convocation in Fraser theater.

95-Year Old Woman Cooks
Her Own Birthday Meal
Washington, Kan. — (U.P.) The birthday dinner party for 95-year-old Mrs. M. J. Holloway was a successful failure.
Everyone wanted to wait on Mother Holloway, to make things easy for the dainty little woman. She has 48 living descendants down to great, great grandchildren.
But she wouldn't have it that way. While other women among the 10 family members at the party cooked the fried chicken—Mrs. Holloway's favorite food—she insisted on baking the rolls, cooking the vegetables, and making the pumpkin pie.

Jayhawkers Down Rockhurst 55-34
Bv BOB NELSON
After building up an impressive 33 to 9 halftime margin, Coach Forrest C. "Phog" Allen's Jayhawkers had to fight off a second half Rockhurst rally to win 55 to 34 in the 1949-50 cage opener Saturday night in Mason Halpin field house, Kansas City, Mo.
Neither team showed a balanced offense or defense and each club showed early season "jitters" in committing numerous mistakes throughout the contest.
The towering Jayhawkers, tallest in the history of K.U. basketball, controlled a majority of the rebounds against the shorter Hawks and often kept the losers from getting more than one shot at the basket when setting up their offensive patterns.
Dr. Allen's starting five, composed of Jerry Waugh and Bob Kenny, forwards; Clyde Lovellette, center; and guards Claude Houchin and Bill Hougland, played about 26 minutes of the contest and outscored Rockhurst 41 to 11 during their playing time.
Lovellette, six-foot nine-inch sophomore center, paced the Jayhawkers' scoring and took game scoring honors by 14 points. Ten of this total came in the first half.
Two other outstanding Kansas sophomores, Kenney and Hougland, scored eight points each as did the veteran Jayhawker guard, Claude Houchin. The other Kansas starter, Waugh, connected on two of four shots from the field in the first half of his four points.
At the start of the second half, Coach Allen started Gene Peterson, senior letterman at forward, and sophomore Bill Lienhard at the other front line spot; Jack Carby, six-foot seven-inch sophomore, at center; and letterman Harold England and Lyn Smith at the back-line spots.
During the second half, Rockhurst's field goal shooting percentage increased from a first half low of nine percent to a still poor 23 percent and the Hawks managed to outscore the "cold" Jayhawkers 22 to 25 and prevented the game from becoming a rout.
Kansas started the game by building up a quick 5 to 0 lead at the two minute mark as Houchin hit a 2-pointer. Lovellette added a free throw and Kenney connected for the first of his three first half goals.
Pat Allegri, Rockhurst forward,
followed by connecting for the first
of his team's three first half field
goals. Lovellette and Hougland hit
goals to run the count to 9 to 2 with
three minutes gone.
After leading 17 to 8 at the midway point of the first half, Kansas scored 18 while Rockhurst could
add only a charity toss by guard Jim Quinlan in the last 11 minutes of the first half. The halftime score was Kansas 33. Rockhurst 9.
Dr. Allen's reserves were outscored by Rockhurst 8 to 17 in the first 10 minutes of the second half to run the score to 41 to 26 in the Jayhawkers' favor.
At this point, the starting Kansas five entered the game and built up the lead to 48 to 26 as Houchin hit a set-up. Lovellette connected with a hook shot, Kenney added a free toss. Lovellette another pivot shot off the post. post.
While Buddy Bull, junior forward, was adding a charity throw for Kansas, Bill Biliad, center, forward Leo Schleicher, and Allegri added field goals for the losers along with a free throw by Quinlan to close the gap to a 49 to 33 count with about four and a half minutes remaining.
Kansas closed out the scoring by Hougland hitting a long push shot, Dale Engel and Bull hitting from the charity line, and Guy Mabry connecting with a one-handed push shot from the corner to run the count to 55 to 33. Bob Williams added his third free throw of the contest to close out the game's scoring and left the score board reading. Kansas 55. Rockhurst 34.
In the first half, Kansas connected for 14 field goals on 37 shots for a respectable 38 percent. Seven goals on 35 second half shots gave K.U. a 25 percent record or an over-all game record of 29 percent from the field on 21 goals out of 72 tries at the basket. At the charity line, Kansas hit 13 out of 23 tosses for 56 percent.

SPOTLIGHT SPORTS
By NELSON OBER
A super-tall Jayhawker basketball team that was given a pre-season ranking of 20th in the nation by one of the sports mags put on a demonstration at Rockhurst Saturday night that would make one be inclined to think that they were slightly over-rated.
About the only time that the Jay-hawkers' height proved effective was during the pre-game warm-up when they indulged themselves and the fans in an exhibition of "dunking" on set-ups.
One other disconcerting thim about this 20th ranking team in the nation idea is that our country cousins out west on the Kaw are rated the 13th spot by the same mag. If that isn't enough we point out that school South of here in Oklahoma is ranked 12th.
Just before the game got underway two large floodlights were turned on directed at the center and west end of the floor. That was for the television, of course, the entire game being sent out over WDAF's video channel. Two cameras were used, one for the far half of the court and the other for the near half.
An interesting point about the viewing of athletic contests is that announcer watches a television screen rather than the actual game itself. The reason for this being that the announcer is thus assured of describing what is being televised rather than what he might think is the most interesting or important thing happening at the particular moment.
The way was thrown open for the television of conference games at a recent meeting of the Big Seven faculty representatives when it was decided that the policy on TV will be left to the individual schools. That decision is a temporary one however, the matter to be finally ruled upon at the January meeting of the National Collegiate Athletic association to be held in New York. Dean Earl S. Fullbrook of Nebraska will represent the Big Seven at the N.C.A.A. meeting.
Speaking again of national rankings, the O.U. cagers ran into some first-half trouble against an inexperienced Texas university team Saturday seeded a near cellar dwellings伯th of 88th in the nation. The half time score was Oklahoma 28 to Texas' 24, although the Sooners opened up in the second period and ended the game on the long end of a 65 to 48 count.
Nebraska ran away from a South Dakota State team winding the affair up with a 61 to 32 score. Big Bus statehead controlled the boards for Nebraska.

Bogue, Schaake On Rookie Team
Jerry Bogue and Bill Schaake have been hired to the Big Seven conference by sophomore all star team picked by the coaches.
Schaake was fourth in the league in pass catching with 22 receptions for 344 yards. Quarterback Bogue ranked fifth in conference passing with 29 completions out of 69 attempts for 521 yards.
George Kennard, tackle, and Kent Thomas, guard, were chosen for the second team. Mike McCormack, Jay-hawker tackle, made the first team last year.
Kansas Staters making the second annual selection were: halfbacks, Henry Faubion and Elmer Crevison; center Harold Robinson and guard Al Lummio.
Kansas State, finishing in the conference cellar, placed four men on the team.
Dick Regier barely beat out Nebraska teammate Frank Simon for end, and Faubion edged Cornhusker Ron Clark.
Voting was close at only two positions.
Robinson was the first Negro to play Big Seven football. He won center honors in a landslide.

Guest Editorial
The Good Living And The Good Life
Only very recently I returned from a trip in which I had an opportunity to inspect rather closely the activities of four other universities and to talk with representatives of two great foundations which subsidize and supervise educational projects all over the nation. Such an experience affords a fresh perspective through which to scrutinize the institution with which one is himself connected, and as the Constellation roared homeward from New York I made some notes which I now pass on for your reflection.
In the first place, I returned from that trip as I have from others with the feeling that the University of Kansas has no cause to hang its head. We have, as I have tried to say before, a quality which is difficult to describe and impossible to define, but which leaves me without envy for the exclusive New England colleges which I visited or for the mighty pile that is Columbia.
Yet there is no room for complacency. Though we are, I think, doing a good job, nevertheless it could be better—and must be better if the University is to meet its responsibilities as it should. An institution such as ours has two responsibilities. It cannot escape from the first because of the demands of practicality. It cannot escape from the second if it is to remain a University. In the first place it must prepare its graduates to make a good living. In the second place it should prepare them to live a good life. The first of these tasks was thrust upon American colleges and universities by a public for whom social mobility, that is, the opportunity to rise above one's beginnings, was the sine quo non of democracy, and education was the principal ladder of social mobility. We have, by and large, done a pretty good job with that part of our task, and in so doing have, in part at least, defeated ourselves. The supply of college trained men and women is fast approaching demand, and the result is that whereas the incomes of college graduates used to exceed very substantially those of non-college people they are now only slightly higher. The time is rapidly approaching when those whose principal objective is financial advancement may have a better chance of realizing their objectives in overalls than in the proverbial white collar which is already more than a little brayed.
Should this eventuality be realized it might be disastrous for the colleges, but it could on the other hand afford them a better opportunity for the performance of the second of the two functions indicated above, that of preparing people to lead a good life. The "good life" is an archaic phrase and somewhat suspect of academic snobbishness. But it is also a good phrase and there is or ought to be a meaning to it. It has something to do with culture at least as Whitehead defines that term. "Culture is activity of thought, and receptiveness to beauty and humane feelings. Scraps of information have nothing to do with it."
It has a great deal to do with social intelligence particularly in this critical century, for man is, after all, distinguished from the rest of the animal kingdom by the fact that, in part at least, he survives by the control of his environment. But the control of environment is a social task, and the environment is in considerable part itself social. That it will require considerable alteration during this century has been said so often that it hardly bears repetition here, but that the alteration requires men and women of intelligence can never be said too often.
And finally it has to do with what one might call private morality. "Ethics is not concerned solely with duty to my neighbor," says Bertrand Russell, "however rightly such duty may be conceived. The performance of public duty is not the whole of what makes a good life, there is also the pursuit of private excellence."
As between the good living and the good life the second is by all odds the more difficult and is naturally, therefore, the one in which the University of Kansas has been the more remiss. It must, I think, do better in this respect by its students in the future than it has in the past. If you inquire exactly how this is to be done I must in all humility answer that I do not of a certainty know. The fundamental difficulty of all education is that, as Marx remarked long ago, "the educator himself must be educated." But the way of a University has ever been everlastingly to inquire. Let us then in view of the critical nature of our time diligently inquire with full knowledge of the trust and awful responsibility that are ours.-Hilden Gibson, professor of political science

We have a letter from the Denver Post wanting to know about K.U.'s policy concerning "liquor on the campus," and we suppose that a series of articles on flaming, drunken, wild-eyed youth is inevitable, no matter what our answer would be.
If you see a lawyer walking down the street with a case of beer on his shoulder, what may you logically assume?
He's taking a case to court.
If, at a later date, you see the same lawyer carrying the same case of beer, plus a step-ladder, what conclusions may then be drawn?
He's taking the case to a higher court. —Dave Meier, K-State Collegian

Census Takers Will Ask Billions Of Questions
Washington—(U.P.)—Uncle Sam is getting ready to ring your door-bell. Armed with questions, pencils and fact, the census-takers will start out April 1 to make the every-10-years count of population, houses, and farms. The questions are being printed now, by the tens of millions.
The census-takers will find the nation has nearly 20 million more persons than 19 years ago. For the first time in history women will outnumber the men. The pollsters will learn that Americans steadily are getting better education. But many persons will think the federal government is checking up on their "senses" instead of "census."
The enumerators will count about 150 million persons and gather five billion facts. The nose counting will take three weeks in the cities, twice as long in rural sections. It will take two years to tabulate all the results.
The census will show the nation has just completed its movingest decade. Some 70 million persons have changed residence since 1940. That probably will mean some Western states will get additional legislators in congress—and some Eastern states will get a cut in their representation.
Every person in the United States, citizen or alien, will become a record to be filed away at the census bureau's headquarters in Suitland, Md., outside Washington. Babies born after April 1 won't count even if they arrive before the census-taker. Persons who die while the census is in progress will be counted if they were living on April 1 .
The census bureau will hire 140,000 bell-ringers to bring the nation's vital statistics up to date. The bureau says it has no interest in the politics of would-be censu-takers. A high school diploma is a prerequisite. So is a rugged constitution.

The census-taker may call in the cops if you balk at his questions. It's a criminal offense to refuse to answer. But once you've told, no one will ever know the information but you and the census bureau. Not even the Federal Bureau of Investigation or the Federal tax-collectors can have a look at the confidential information collected by the census. It all comes out in impersonal charts and tables.

Santa Claus Is An Actor
New York. Dec. 5 — (U.P.)—Par- are more afraid of Santa Claus than children are, Robert Strauss, chief chimney climber of Santa's Helpers, incorporated said today.
Mr. Strauss, one of the actors from the Broadway hit "Detective Story," makes a business of recruiting and training fellow actors to be Santa Claus for persons who don't want to be Santa Claus.
He gave three suggestions, for those who do want to be Santa Claus, based on his own experiences in the business.
"Don't enter a house until the child you are visiting invites you in," he said. "Then he isn't afraid of you."
"Don't touch a child until he has touched you first.
"And then begin talking about little personal things in his life. This gives him the idea that Santa Claus does see all and know all. He decides that he believes in Santa Claus and you're his friend."
Helping parents out of a hole when their children announced that they didn't believe in Santa Claus was a scheme Mr. Strauss hit on to get himself out of a hole.
"I was employed in Hollywood in December 1947," he said. "Being broke at Christmas is tough. Someone suggested that I get a job as
Santa Claus and I put my imagina-
tion to work. I recruited a group of Santa Clauses and advertised our
services."
Mr. Strauss moved his business to New York in 1948 and called on 300 children.
Charles S. Manley, acting director of the Kansas department of civil service, said the jobs hold opportunities for advancement as high as $294 a month.
State Highway Commission Needs Engineering Aides, Traffic Recorders
Engineering aides and traffic recorders are wanted for state jobs with salaries from $150 to $220 a month. Both permanent and immer jobs will be open.

Hopkins Gave Russia A-Bomb Ex-Major Says
Washington, Dec. 5—U.(P.)—George Racey Jordan, former air force major, today challenged the experts to dig into musty lend-lease records and "disprove" his charge that Harry L. Hopkins and two state department officials "gave Russia the A-bomb on a platter."
He said investigators who compare his diary entries with data on wartime aid to Russia will find that "they fit like a well-cut picture puzzle."
Jordan's charges against Hopkins the late White House intimate, and two unnamed state department officials have been branded as "incredible" by Mr. Hopkins' friends and relatives. They nevertheless have touched off two Congressional investigations with promises from the air force and atomic energy commission to give their "full cooperation."
The story told by the 51-year-old former army air force liaison officer rivalled any of the Communist spy thrillers which have been unfolded since the war. He said some 1,650 pounds of raw uranium—the stuff from which atomic bombs are made—and literally tons of secret papers were jammed into black suitcases and flown to Russia in lend-lease planes.
Mr. Hopkins, he said, once told him by long distance telephone to "rush two shipments through as speedily as possible" and say nothing about them. Once, he added, the air force tried to stop the ships but got a blunt "hands off" warning from the state department. He said he discovered the ships while stationed as a liaison officer at the Great Falls, Mont., air base on the Alaska lend-lease supply route to Russia.
The F.B.I. has refused to comment on the case, but it was learned that its agents have questioned Mr. Jordan and examined his diary. Jordan, now assistant to the president of a New York construction firm, first told his story to radio commentator Fulton Lewis, Jr., in an interview December 2. He filled in some of the blanks in another interview with a United Press reporter who found him visiting at Mr. Lewis' farm estate near Hollywood, Md., over the week-end.
Jordan said he "sat" on the story for six years because "no one ever asked me about it before" and because the reported atomic shipments were "common knowledge" in top American military circles. "If they didn't want to howl about it, why should I?" he asked. He said he finally told the story to the F.B.I. after Mr. Lewis got wind of it and "hunted me out."
Young Hopkins said his father, while aware of Russia's tremendous contributions to the allied cause during the war, also "was well aware of the threat of future world Communism. . . and was very outspoken against it." e
Jordan said the uranium shipments passed through the base in February, 1944. "Hopkins told me in a long distance call from Washington to rush these two shipments warned me not to make any record of it or anything about it or my superior officers," he said.
David Hopkins' reply to that was: "Actually, from Jan. 1 until after July 4 of that year, my father was critically ill and almost completely inaccessible. The possibility of telephone conversations during the month of February is completely out of the question."
Meanwhile, in fairbanks, Alaska Brig. Gen. Dal V. Gaffney says he was "completely surprised" by MajGen. Racey Jordan's claim that plane loads of atomic secrets were transported to Russia through Alaskan air bases.
Gen. Gaffney, who was Jordan's superior officer as commander of the Alaskan division of the air transport command, denied yesterday that any suspicious reports regarding the Russian shipments had come to him.
Political Broadcasts On BBC Determined By Party's Seats
In England the amount of time a political party can get for radio broadcasts is determined by the party's strength in Parliament, Rhys Hopkin Morris, former Independent-Liberal member of the British parliament, said Dec. 2 in an interview at the University.
Allen Starting Tallest Squad
By BOB NELSON
Omaha, Nebr., Dec. 5—Special to the University Daily Kansas—Coach Forrest C. "Phog" Allen will start the tallest Jayhawk five ever to represent K. U. basketball when it clashes with the Creighton university Bluejays here tonight at 8:45 in the Creighton gymnasium.
With big Gene Petersen moved into the starting lineup, replacing either Bob Kenney or Bill Hougland, the K.U. starters will average six-feet five-inches in height and offer the Jays plenty of trouble in trying to control the boards.
Coach Allen and his cagers arrived here yesterday afternoon via bus from Kansas City and spent the night at the Fontenelle hotel. This morning the Jayhawkers went through a light workout.
Both the Bluejays and the Jayhawkers will be out after their second straight win of the young season. Kansas encountered little trouble in rolling over Rockhurst college 55 to 34 Saturday night in Kansas City, Mo., while Creighton eased Colorado college 58 to 51 here on Friday night.
Coach J. V. "Duce" Belford's starting five, all lettermen averaging only six-feet in height, expect to encounter plenty of trouble from the skyscrapers from Kansas as did Rockhurst in going down before Dr. Allen's charges.
Last year's Kansas-Creighton contest in Lawrence's Hoch auditorium turned out to be a record breaking affair. Allen's offensive minded cagers established a new team scoring mark by rolling over Creighton 79 to 50.
Gene "Promation" Petersen, six-foot seven-inch forward formerly of Omaha and a starter tonight, set a new individual KU. scoring mark by burning the nest for 34-point total on 15 field goals and four free throws in last year's encounter. Dr. Allen expects ete to be through his brightness in the "homecoming" performance before me of his Omaha friends.
Coach Belford has built this year's club around six lettermen, three juniors and three seniors, but the team's core has been women. It does, possess, adequate experience,

9 Mr. Morris, now regional director
Mr. Morris, now regional director of the Welsh division of the British Broadcasting company, is on a lecture tour of the United States. The tall, greying Welshman, a lawyer by profession, said that "in the United States you have several large radio networks and, as a consequence, have five or six broadcasting stations in many of your large cities. In England we have only one radio network and so have only one station in each large city.
"The B.B.C. is divided into five divisions which adapt their programs to the particular section of the British Isles which their division includes. One division broadcasts in Welsh to their territory of Wales. Another broadcasts in Gaelic and is sent to Scotland."
Mr. Morris said that the amount of time a political party has for broadcasts is determined by the party's strength in Parliament. Mr. Morris declined to make any comparison between the type of program carried by the networks of the two countries for he said he had not heard any American programs.
B. B.C. is not supported by advertising but by a tax paid by the owners of radio receiving sets. Like our system it is independent of the government.
"Devaluation of the pound has raised the cost of living in England," Mr. Morris said. "The trade unions have agreed not to demand higher wages. Since the people now have to spend more of their incomes to get the necessities of life they have less to spend for imports. Thus the amount of imports will decline and England's finances will be strengthened."

Pi Lambda Theta will grant two research awards of $400 each on or before Aug. 15, 1950, for original research papers on the professional problems of women.
The professional women's educational group will accept any unpublished study of such problems. Those who enter need not restrict themselves to the field of education, nor need they be actively engaged in the field now.
Pi Lambda Theta To Sponsor Contest
The study may deal with women's status, professional training, responsibilities and contributions to education and society.
Three copies of the study must be submitted to the committee on studies and awards by June 1, 1950. The money for the awards comes from the Ella Victoria Dobbs Fellowship fund.
Manuscripts and inquiries should be addressed to Alice H. Hayden, University of Washington, Seattle 5. Wash.
Chiang Resumes China Command
Hong Kong, Dec. 5.—U.(P.)-General alissimo Chiang Kai-Shek resumed direction of China's Nationalist government today while officials already began to flee Chengtu, threatened by Communist forces only 92 miles away.
Chiang took over after Li Tsung-Jen, acting president, left Hong Kong on the first leg of a flight to the United States, ostensibly for medical treatment. Reports from Chengtu said Premier Yeh Hsi-Shan threatened to resign when Li refused his entreaties to return to Chengau and take over active direction of the government.
As a result the Kuomintang central standing committee met over the weekend and approved a motion to the effect that Chiang will resume the presidency while Li Tsung-Jen is in the United States. The remaining Nationalist officials in threatened Chengtu began a lightning evacuation when Communist forces marching from Chungking captured Neikiang, 92 miles Southeast of Chengtu.
The Communist drive on Chengtu was paralleled by other Communist drives through Southwest China which apparently were speeding forward without opposition. A report from Chengtu said the last 100,000 Nationalist troops on the mainland had been withdrawn into Southern Kwangtung province and Lichou peninsula preparatory to evacuating the mainland for Hainan island. The headquarters of the Southwest China commander, Gen. Pai Chung-Hsi, already has been established on Hainan, this report said.
Sellards, Straight To Be Soloists
The University Symphony orchestra will present its fall concert at 8 p.m. today in Hoch auditorium. The orchestra, under the direction of Russell L. Wiley, professor of band and orchestra will play "Third Symphony" (Brahms) and waltzes from "Der Rosenkavalier" (Strauss).
Solists with the orchestra will be James Sellards, education senior, playing "Concerto for Trumpet" (Haydn), and Willard Straight, fine arts junior, in "Variations Symphony-ques" (Franck) for piano and orchestra.
Solo work is "old stuff" to Sellards, who plays first trumpet in the orchestra. Although it will be his first appearance with this group, he has performed many times with the University band in the past two years. He took his way through war as a field musician with the marines before he came to the University in 1946. His home is in Osage City.
Tonight will also mark Willard Straight's first appearance with the orchestra. He is a student of D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts. Straight, whose home is Kansas City, Mo., has also done some

Coffee Prices Rise As Result Of 'Shortage'
Bv FRANCIS KELLEY
A study of Lawrence retail and wholesale grocery firms the past few days make the alleged "coffee shortage" appear more rumor than fact.
The rumored "shortage" is reported a result of a "failure of coffee crops in South America." Coffee stocks in Lawrence are reported normal by Lawrence retailers and wholesalers.
But this hasn't kept the prices the same. Prices of all coffees have jumped during the past two weeks. Popular brands now selling from 79 to 85 cents a pound were selling for 74 cents in Lawrence two weeks ago. This marks a price increase of about 9 per cent. The average price of these coffees is 81 cents.
Cheaper grade coffees are now selling in Lawrence for 47 to 75 cents a pound. The average price for these "cheap" coffees, 61 cents a pound. These are the coffees sold in paper bags. A year ago these cheaper coffees were selling for 40 cents. The increase of 21 cents a pound for the year is an increase of 52 per cent.
Some Lawrence firms do not distinguish between the "cheap" coffees and national brands of coffee now. They sell all coffees at the same price.
They said they have not been told of any shortage or proposed cut in coffee stock by wholesalers' supply houses.
Coffee stocks reportedly are moving more slowly in Lawrence now because of the higher prices. Spokesmen for two Lawrence wholesale grocers firms said they are now carrying the same brands in normal amount as they did before the "coffee shortage."
Housewives in Lawrence are showing great interest in the present situation. Most of them are of the opinion that there is no real coffee short of someone it's taking advantage of a situation in hiking coffee prices.
Mrs. Mary Hastert, 639 Vermont street, is not buying any more coffee now than she normally has. She is owner of a Lawrence rooming house. "I think people are hoarding coffee," she said. "If people wouldn't buy more than they need, we wouldn't have these high prices. I don't believe there is any coffee shortage."
Mrs. John L. Kennedy, 769 Maple street, uses about a pound and a half of coffee a week for her family. She can't see the need for high prices, either. "The coffee scare has thrown people into a buying panic," she said, "but we haven't had any trouble getting coffee."
Mrs. Clarence Wilson, 624 Kentucky street, is not buying as much coffee now because of the higher prices. She is one of two widowed sisters keeping house together. "I think these houses are outrageous," she said. "It costs so much to live now—about twice what it did before the war."
Mrs. B. F. Hammel, 1500 E. 23rd street, is another housewife still buying a normal amount of coffee. "We use about a pound of coffee a week," she said. "I like coffee and will keep on buying it regardless of the price."
Music Professors Conduct Clinics
E. Thayer Gaston and James Nickerson have returned from western Kansas, after directing music clinics for high school students the past week.
Mr. Gaston, professor of music education, was in Goodland supervising a band clinic for students in that area. He conducted a concert Dec. 2, by a band composed of 400 musicians attending the clinic.
Mr. Nickerson, associate professor of music education, directed a chorus of 700 voices at Garden City, Dec. 2 as the finale of a two-day vocal clinic held there. High school students from Garden City, Houston, Syracuse, Liberal, Meade, universities, and Cimarron took part in the concert.

STUDENT NEWS PAPER
A Ruffled Ward To Leave China For Home Today
Washington, Dec. 6—U.(P.)—Angus Ward starts for home today. The spade-bearded U.S. consul-general at Mukden, Manchuria, expects to put his entire staff aboard a rickety train and head for Tientsin on the first leg of their journey to the United States.
Thus will end the saga of the 18 consulate employees who have been under house arrest for a year. They got permission to leave only after the Communists threw Ward and four others in jail on criminal charges and finally ordered the whole group expelled by 7 p.m., EST. today.
As the incident neared a close, state department officials disclosed they have renewed a campaign to free two other Americans—Albert Willis of Brooklyn and Alfred T. Mescher of Kindlerhook, N.Y.
The two ECA officials have been held
The two E.C.A. officials have been held by the Communists since Sept. 22 when the crew of a South Korean freighter mutinied and fled with them to Communist-ruled North Korea.
Two U. S. notes to Russia have produced little, and now the U. S. Ambassador in Moscow, Alan G. Kirk, has taken up the case personally with Andrei Gromyko, the Soviet deputy foreign minister.
The United States apparently intends to build up as much pressure as possible to free Willis and Meschter promptly. It was understood the two are reasonably well off, although they needed food and clothing.
Officials here also awaited a reply from their sixth formal protest to Chinese Communists over the detention of William C. Smith of Long Beach, Calif., and Elmer C. Bender of Cincinnati and Chicago. The two naval fliers have been held in red China since their plane was forced down more than 13 months ago.
China's Communists, prodded by rising American opinion, were arranging final details on transportation for Ward and his staff from Mukden.
A few hours before he was scheduled to depart, Ward still did not know them. But he expected to take a train to the port of Tientsin, a 700-mile trip which usually takes from two to four days.
16 Students Join Phi Beta Kappa
Several professors on the campus were, paraphrased by John Hankins, professor of English, in his reading of an address entitled "Chaucer Up-to-Date." Original characters in the "Prologue" from Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales" were given the names of prominent faculty and staff members of the University.
The students are Sidney Lida graduate student; Robert L. Davis, first-year law student; and the following College seniors: Margaret A. Beltz, Mrs. Joan Gregory Bennett, Dean Collins, John Eberhardt, Lamont M. Gaston, Willace D. Hollman, Edward J. Huyueck, Jean Kirkman, Ralph Moon, William E. Ruth, Ralph Simmons, Charles E. Staley, Elmer G. Stegman, and Doris Jane Tihen.
The address had a scholarly humer which was well received by members of the Alpha chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, national honorary fraternity, at a recent pledging ceremony for 16 student students.
Lawyers To Hear County Attorney
John Anderson, county attorney of Johnson county, will address law students at 4 p.m. today in Fraser theater. Mr. Anderson will speak on "Criminal Procedure in the County Attorney's Office."
Earl O'Connor, president of Phi Alpha Delta, professional law fraternity, said today that all students in the School of Law are invited.
Labor Trouble At Atomic City
Oak Ridge, Tenn., Dec. 6—(U.P.) Construction on a new high-priority uranium-235 plant, neared a halt today because of a wildcat strike—the first in the history of this atomic city.
Some 250 steamfitters, truck drivers and operating engineers quit work suddenly late Monday, apparently in protest of the use of non-union labor on another Oak Ridge job.
There was no indication whether they would return to work today
Gordon Molesworth, assistant to the manager of the atomic energy commission here, said he had no warning of the "strike" and did not know how long the work stoppage would continue.
Union officials here either denied
responses to the walkout or
described comment.
Molesworth said the walkout would "interrupt the construction schedule" on a $66,000,000 gaseous diffusion plant which will produce a vital atomic plant ingredient. Two such plants already are in operation.
Chamber's Wife Will Testify In Hiss Trial
New York, Dec. 6—(U.P.)—Mrs. Whittaker Chambers, who married a Communist in 1931 and lived a masquerade life in the underground with him until he broke with the party in 1938, was expected to be called as a government witness today in the second perjury trial of Alger Hiss.
Mrs. Chambers, 49, a plain, bespectacled woman who has done rough chores on the Chambers Maryland farm for 10 years, was scheduled to follow to the stand Eunice A. Lincoln, state department veteran.
Miss Lincoln began her testimony late Monday. She was secretary from 1933 to 1939 to Francis B. Sayre, assistant secretary of state to Hiss was chief assistant in the late 1930's. She described the physical set-up of the office and testified that four penciled summaries of state department documents, which the government has entered in evidence, appeared to be in Hiss's handwriting.
Hiss has admitted the documents are in his handwriting. He is charged with lying to a grand jury when he swore he never gave state department secrets to Chambers, an admitted former Communist spy ring courier, and never saw him after Jan. 1, 1937.

Medical School To Give Monthly Refresher Class
More than 300 Kansas physicians will return to school this week.
They will devote a half-day monthly through May to postgraduate courses which will be given by the University School of Medicine in seven Kansas cities. Two-doctor instruction teams will be at each of the cities. They will rotate each month.
The K.U. program, endorsed by the Kansas Medical society and the State board of health, is designed to maintain and improve the standards of Kansas medicine. The half-day courses bring postgraduate education to physicians who are unable to leave their patients to attend the three and four-day refresher course at the Medical center in Kansas City.
This year H. G. Ingham, director of the extension program in medicine, arranged two circuits. At first meetings on the south-eastern circuit, the anticipated attendances are: Pittsburgh, today, more than 40 physicians; Independence, Wednesday, 50 or more; Hutchinson, Thursday, more than 60; Manhattan, Friday, about 40. The northwestern circuit: Concordia, Wednesday, more than 35; Colby, Thursday, more than 35; Dodge City, Friday, about 50.
Dr. Charles Rombold, orthopedic surgeon at the Wichita clinic and Dr. Lee H. Geger, director of the K.U. Medical center laboratories, will teach the southeastern circuit this week. Dr. Rombold will discuss fractures and Dr. Leger will tell of practical laboratory tests and their uses by the general practitioner.
Diabetes and endocrinology will be the subjects for Dr. Edward J. Ryan of Emporia on northwestern circuit programs. With him will be Albert N. Lemoine, Jr., assistant ophthalmologist at the Medical center. He will discuss common ailments of the eye.
"School" will start in each city at 3 p.m., continuing until 9 p.m. Abstracts of each lecture will be supplied in loose-leaf form. All doctors attending three-fourths of the sessions will receive certificates next spring.

Construction Of New State Buildings Will Get Underway By Spring
Topeka, Kan.—(U.P.)—Hurrying along a $5,629,744 building program at Kansas institutions, Charles Marshall, state architect, has said that all major projects will be under contract by next spring.
Construction already has started on four projects in a list of 24 at the ten institutions under jurisdiction of the state board of social welfare.
Art Martin, state institutional director, said the whole building program, brought to realization by 1949 legislative appropriations, should be complete in a little more than two years.
Marshall said the war-delayed construction at mental hospitals, industrial schools, the state orphans home, a children's training school and the Kansas tuberculosis sanitarium is being pushed in all stages from drawing board to actual building.
"Some Kansans mistakenly believe the long-awaited building program is still all in the future," Martin added. "It's under way right now and the construction stage will be reached on all major phases by next summer."

Moreau Speaks To Nurses Club
Nurses are seldom sued. F. J Moreau, dean of the School of Law told members of the Registered Nurses club Monday.
"It is either because nurses are never careless, or are too poor to be sued." Dean Moreau commented.
In discussing medical law before the group, Dean Moreau reviewed recent cases which illustrate application of law to professional nursing.
He quoted decisions that established precedent in civil lawsuits brought by patients against hospitals and nurses, and pointed out that negligence of one nurse often results in many being held liable in the eyes of the law.
Following Dean Moreau's talk the nurses sang Christmas carols and served refreshments.

Co-ops Not Subversive Believes Student Author
Cooperatives are not subversive and do pay taxes is the opinion of Lloyd C. Wilson, education senior, whose book "A History of Cooperatives in Kansas," was published recently.
"I found that by and large the persons who are members of a cooperative are ordinary people." Wilson said. "They are not radicals who are in favor of government control of cooperatives.
"More than 500 cooperatives are in Kansas. In 1945 20 per cent of the Kansas farm products were marketed by cooperatives, Wilson said. To prepare the book questionaires were sent to all the cooperatives. It was from their replies that the book was written."
The most numerous type of cooperatives in Kansas are the grain elevator cooperatives, Wilson said. The average membership of this type of cooperative is 350. The members of the grain elevator cooperate in marketing their wheat and in buying their groceries and other consumer goods. By this they are able to cut both their selling and purchasing costs.
There are only a few creamery cooperatives in Kansas, but they are rather large. In these cooperatives the members unite to market their dairy products. Coop oil stations are also an important type of Kansas Cooperative. They supply gasoline, oil, and tractor fuel to members.
Other types of Kansas cooperatives included credit unions which specialize in making loans at low rates of interest to members of the union. Others are encouraged by the Rural Electrification administration to purchase electricity for the individual members.
Maybe He's Psvchic
Wilson wrote the book for his thesis required for the degree of master of business administration which he received from the University in June. He is now enrolled in the School of Education to complete the courses in education that are required for teaching in a junior college.
Wilson was an instructor of economics at K.U. in the spring and fall semesters of 1947 and the spring semester of 1948. His book was sponsored by the Kansas Cooperative council and is being distributed by the council to Kansas cooperatives.

MU Posters Warn Of Fire Danger
Columbia. Mo.-(U.P.)-Posters warning of the danger of fire were placed in each room of the University of Missouri dormitories here today upon order of Leslie Cowan, university vice-president in charge of business operations.
The poster was headed, "Don't let this happen at MU." and reprinted the story and headline the Columbia Missouri carried on the dormitory fire early Saturday morning at the University of Oklahoma in which at least three students were killed and twenty injured.
"A fire such as this could have happened in university dormitories two weeks ago," the poster read, "once when a cigarette discarded by a careless smoker started a blaze in an overstuffed chair and at another time when a lighted cigarette carelessly tossed into a wastebasket set it on fire. We are doing our best to prevent fires. Will you help?"
Mr. Cowan said that Tom Walden, Columbia fire chief, had assisted in preparing the poster. "The University of Missouri, with the help of Mr. Walden and other officials, both from the city and the state," Mr. Cowan said. "is taking all possible precautions to prevent fires in its dormitories, classrooms and other buildings."

IM Program Is Expected To Break 1948-49 Record
Looking at the "biggest ever" number of teams and men participating in the intramural basketball program, it looks as though the intramural program for this school year will exceed, or at least equal, that of last year when a record number of students entered the competition in the various sports.
Over 1400 men are playing on the 142 basketball teams organized this year. Last year 131 quintets participated.
However, this greater number playing basketball is not a sure indication that this year's program will be the biggest in the history of the University. Fewer men played touch football this fall. Last year there were 66 football teams, this year 55.
The number of students who go out for the late winter sports of volleyball and swimming plus those who participate in the spring sports will be the determining factor as to whether the 1949-50 program beats last year's.
The basketball teams will play about 600 games, including the tournament tilts, before the season ends. Severity a week are to be run off. Initial contests were played last week.
In addition to the men's teams 23 women's squads are playing contests. Women's basketball games are played on Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
In overall charge of the intramural program is Don Powell. The size of the program, one of the larger ones in the nation, has more than doubled since Powell took over four years ago. Assisting him in preparing schedules and contacting the players are Ron Roberts, secretary of intramurals, and Don Roberts. Both are seniors in education.
Three thousand men were active in last year's sports, nearly half of the 6,300 men enrolled at K.U Many of these students entered competition in more than one sport An even dozen sports are offered in intramurals. The major fall sport is football, with golf, tennis horseshoes, handball, and badminton the minor sports.
Basketball tops the winter sports Other sports are bowling, new this year, volleyball, and swimming.
In the spring it is softball for the main team sport. Track is also offered along with round-robin in play in golf, tennis, horeshoes, handball, and badminton. These spring minor sports differ from the same sports played in the fall in that they are round-robin while the fall sports are single elimination tournaments.
Women's intramural sports are tennis, badminton, table tennis, volleyball, swimming, and softball.
A student manager plan whereby students submit applications is used to aid in the running off the men's intramurals.
The amount of equipment needed to carry on the intramural program is sizable. Last year a dozen basketballs were used along with eight volleyballs, 15 catchers' masks, 200 softballs, and 10 footballs.
Each year eight freshman students are selected from the applications. They are awarded jackets at the end of the year. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors who are picked to be student managers are given other awards.
Officials for the program use from 100 to 120 whistles.
Powell, however, is still not satisfied with number of men playing. When it was pointed out to him that there were several men not in the program, Powell said that the new field house would enable them to expand the program. Men on the varsity teams will move into the field house, leaving Robinson gym exclusively to intramurals.
Then he said, speaking of the non-players, "Til get om."
Red Peppers Elect Four More Officers
The Red Peppers, freshman pep organization, elected the following officers recently:
Jerry Hesse, secretary; Alice Milligan, treasurer; Darlene Schindler, song leader; and Leah Ross, social chairman.
These new officers and Grace Endecott, president, and Marilyn More vice-president, will be guests at the next meeting of the Jav Janes.
Women Start Table Tennis
The women's intramural table tennis singles tournament continues this week with the second round of play-offs. Games started last week and will continue through January
Final games between division winners will follow immediately and the championship play-off should take place in the latter par of February.
Approximately 130 women are participating in the tournament. They were paired off into eight divisions with about six or eight rounds of play for each division. Usually each round is allowed a week for completion, but holdovers are sometimes necessary.
Doris Tihen, College senior, is defending her record as three-time champion and will certainly be hard to beat. She would like to make "a clean sweep of it" for her fourth singles crown.
Florida Future Formers Cut Lunch Costs By Pigs
Newberry, Fla.—(U.R.)-Members of the Newberry Future farmers of America have made a deal with the high school which pleases everyone concerned.
The student farmers have agreed to furnish the school lunch room with all the vegetables, both fresh and canned, that it needs. In return the boys get the lunch room garbage to feed their hogs.
The student-in-the-classroom is the real winner. The arrangement makes it possible to reduce lunch prices about 25 per cent.
Fireman Answers Own Alarm
Coffeyville—(U.P.)—F. R. Cooney is a fireman who turned in and answered the same alarm. Mr. Cooney found a cushion ablaze in his car parked half a block from the fire house. He ran to the station, turned in the alarm, then sprinted back with other firemen to put the fire out.
Students Operate Companies
Cleveland. Ohio—(U.P.)-H i g h school students in Cleveland learn free enterprise through their own companies. They have 25 of them under Junior Achievement, Inc., and they operate as full-fledged businesses. They have issued and sold stock and elected officers. They do their own production work and sell their products.
Newburyport, Mass.—(U.P.)—When Leonard B. Murray received only 50 votes in the primary election for mayor, he published a notice thanking his friends "for knowingly wasting their votes." He also advised him to be more careful with their ballots in the election.

New Rules In Women's Basketball Will Make The Sport More Confusing
"Take it away from her. Get in there and fight for it." "Why don't they dribble? There's a hole wide enough to drive a tank through on that team."
Such comments are often heard from men watching a woman's basketball game. The difference in playing rules is quite confusing to them. This year the men will be even more bewildered because there have been several important changes in the rules.
As before, players can't bat the ball out of an opponent's hands. Once a girl gets hold of the ball it's hers until she passes it to another player. This year women have been given more freedom of movement and the game will be much faster. This is because the new rules allow two dribbles of the ball in moving down the court, in place of the former one dribble rule.
A second new ruling is the time out for free throw. The rebound can't be played, but the same forward that made the free throw "takes the ball in" for her team even if she didn't make the toss good.
There are approximately 250 women playing on the 23 teams participating in this year's competition. The teams are divided into four divisions. This enables most of the teams to play five games, although

Kansas Loses Close Game To Creighton 59 To 55
Three Creighton cagers put on a sizzling hot second half performance to overcome a 9-point halftime deficit and defeat the Kansas J. Hawkers 59 to 55 last night in Omaha, Nebr. About 3,000 fans saw the contest.
Clyde Lovellette, giant Kansas center and high point man in the thriller with 28 points, and Don Knowles, Creighton captain, hooked up in a real scoring duel. Knowles paced his teams' offense with 26 points and kept Kansas in hot water with a variety of tricky shots.
With the score tied at 51-all and seven minutes remaining, Lovelette fouled out and Coach F. C. Allen's cagers missed his timely shooting off the post. Lovelette's 19-point first half scoring spree kept the Jayhawkers in the battle.
Francis Miller, six-foot three-inch Creighton center, scored nine points and guard Bob Gradoville another eight points to go along with Knowles' 12-point total as the Bluejays out-scored Kansas 31 to 18 in the final half. Kansas collected only four field goals, three by Lovellette, during the half. Ten out of 13 free throws kept Kansas in the game.
With seven minutes remaining and the score tied at 51-all, Gradoville sank a free throw to send Creighton ahead. Jerry Waugh tied the game a minute later with a free toss. Gradoville followed by hitting an over free throw to give the winners a 1-point margin. Lyn Smith tied the game up again at 53-all with a charity toss with 5:10 remaining.
A free throw by Waugh with four and a half minutes remaining gave Kansas a short lived 54-53 margin as Knowles connected with a beautiful running one hand shot to again send Creighton into a 1-point lead.
With two minutes and 50 seconds remaining, Creighton went into a stall and kept the ball away from the Kanssens until Gradoville broke into the clear for a lay-up shot with one minute and 20 seconds left to run the count to 57 to 54. With fifty seconds left, Waugh hit a charity toss after being fouled by Knowles.
Knowles ended the game hitting two free throws after being fouled by Bob Kenney on a drive-in shot just before the final gun to make the final score read, Creighton 59 and Kansas 55.
The game was a hard fought affair most of the way with the Officials. Tel O'Sullivan and Ab Hinshaw calling a total of 48 fouls and sending one Kansas player and two Creighton players to the bench. The Blueiws lost their two starting forwards before the second half was half gone.
During the second half, Kansas had a hard time getting shots at the basket and tried only 11 from the field, hitting four for 36 percent. Little Creighton hit 9 out of 16 for 58 percent.
Lovellette's offensive play off the post had the fans pretty well convinced before the game was too far along that he is destined to become a great postman with more experience. He made several beautiful first half hook shots that put the much shorter Blue-ias in trouble.
The first ten minutes developed into a see-saw battle with the lead changing hands several times before Gene Petersen playing before
many of his former home town friends, hit two quick goals to give Kansas a 14 to 11 margin with 9:20 having been played in the half.
Kansas maintained a lead most of the final ten minutes of the first half by margins that varied from four to nine points. During this period of time, Knowles kept Creighton in the game with eight points on three goals and a pair of charity tosses. He had a very effective shot that he used to good advantage while cutting across the free-throw circle and shooting on the run.
Both teams hit an almost unbelievable percentage of free throws. The Jayhawkers connected for 25 out of 32 charity losses for 78 percent while the winning Bluejays hit 19 out of 24 attempts for 79 percent.
From the field, both clubs also did a good job of shooting. Kansas hit 15 out of 38 field goal attempts for a 40 percent mark and Coach J. V. Belford's boys connected on 20 out of 47 shots for a 43 percent mark.
Following the game, the Kansas team was honored at a dinner given by the Omaha K.U. alumni association. Several K.U. officials including Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary; Marvin Small, newly appointed assistant general secretary of the Kansas alumni association; Miss Mildred Clodfelter, assistant alumni secretary; and Tom Yoe, director of K.U. public relations, attended the dinner.

Non-League Tilts Set Big 7 For Conference Play

Test-hopping for basketball teams in the Big Seven conference entered the vigorous stage today with 10 more games on this week's slate, none of them league affairs and some of them by no means breathers.
Only Missouri will remain idle, the Tigers waiting until Dec. 12 to make their 1949-50 debut at home against Texas Christian university.
Kansas State, whose Wildcats finished third in the conference last season behind the deadlocked leaders, Nebraska and Oklahoma, will travel as far as New York City's Madison Square garden to get in three games during the busy week.
Iowa State and Colorado each will play two more games, Kansas is scheduled for one, and Oklahoma and Nebraska one each.
Jack Gardner's K-State team, expected to sizzle this season, will meet Wisconsin at Madison Tuesday; mix with Long Island U., in the Garden Thursday, and engage Canisius at Buffalo, N.Y. Saturday.
The Wildcats opened their new year last week with an 83 to 34 victory at home over Rockhurst college of Kansas City. Two nights later they whipped Emporia State, 59 to 50.
Iowa State, co-occupant of the cellar with Kansas in the 1948-49 campaign, dusted off Luther last week, 49 to 39, won 70 to 59 over Grinnell Monday at Ames; and prepared for Bradley at Peoria, Ill., Thursday, and Drake at Ames Saturday.
Colorado, whose Buffs finished last season with a 4-8 record in conference play, opened the new year Monday with a 55 to 45 win over Emporia State Teachers at Boulder and plays Emporia again tonight. Saturday will catch the Buff matched against Northwestern University in Chicago's stadium.
Thousands Pray For Girl Who May Lose Right Hand
Coach Bruce Drake's Oklahoma team a top-favorite in the Big Seven, opened against Texas last week with a convincing 65 to 48 triumph. Towering Marcus Freiberger led the Sooners as they prepped for a game at Norman Saturday against Illinois.
Call K.U. 251 With Your News.
Brownsville, Tenn. —(U.P.)—The simple faith of 10-year-old Betty Lou Marbury, facing amputation of her right hand, has been strengthened by the news that thousands of people had included her in their Sunday prayers.
"I firmly believe I'm going to get well with God's help" he said.
get well, with God's help, she said. But while churchgoers for miles around prayed that God might see fit to spare Betty Lou's afflicted hand, her own prayer was not for herself alone.
In her own Sunday School class at Holly Grove Baptist church here, Betty Lou prayed: "Bless all the sick people and help them get well."
Meanwhile, churchmen here and in nearby Memphis and all over the nation answered the plea which Betty Lou made through a newspaper last week to "pray that I may not lose my hand."
The Memphis Commercial Appeal published the little girl's letter. Soon messages began pouring in to Betty
Lou and churches of all creeds scheduled special services and prayers for the afflicted child.
Boy Hunter Drowns Deer
Despite the decision of bone specialists that they will have to amputate her right hand next month to halt the spread of a bone malignancy centered there, Betty Lou was firm in her belief that "praying will help save my hand."
Rupert, Vt.—(U.P.)—A 14-year-old boy bagged a deer by drowning it. John McCraw fired two shots, the second wounding the deer so that he was able to drag it to death in a nearby stream.

Requests To Elbel Run From Lost Pals To Coroner
DY FRANCIS KELLEY
"Please assure Mrs. Smith from Emporia that her oven has been turned off."
This is one of many requests which have confronted Dr. Edwin R. Elbel, chief of the University public address staff, at home football and basketball games. However announcements of this kind are not used.
Dr. Elibel has handled the public address since its first use in the early 1830s except four years during the war. He has received many requests for announcements ranging from humor to pathos.
"Our most frequent request stems from the confusion at a football game," Dr. Elbel said. "A group of people come to the game together. One gets lost from the others and the plea comes to us to 'Please help find John.'"
Dr. Elbel said few announcements not pertaining to the game or ceremonies in progress can be made. Most of these will be of an emergency nature and must be cleared through the telegraph or telephone office. In all cases, the copy must be brief, clear, and to the point.
A request during the Missouri game was not read because its 55 seconds reading time was too long. It came from a law student and explained a tradition of the laws. The last paragraph said:
"The coeds' of the University love the lawyers for their spirit and the 25-year-old tradition of wolf-like whistles. The lawyers whistle whenever a pretty girl goes by as a show of approval, while the engineers, the traditional enemies of the law school, yell and scream that the lawyers should be disbarred before they even get a chance to pass the tough bar tests which they take when they graduate."
An air of mystery was added to the Homecoming game when Dr. Eibel asked for a doctor in section EE. After another quarter of the game had been played, he requested both a doctor and a policeman to report 16 section EE. Twenty minutes later he called for the coroner, but not for section EE, as most of the crowd anticipated. The coroner was wanted for another case.
As the game neared the end, Dr. Elbel announced that, as a part of the Homecoming festivities, coffee and doughnuts would be served at the Union and everyone was invited. "Some optimist," he appended. "Inviting 40,000 people to have coffee and doughnuts."
The University was one of the first in this part of the country to recognize the value of the public address system at basketball games, Dr. Elbel said.
"It adds a personal element to the game," he said. "One of our chief duties is to keep the spectators reminded that it is just a game they are watching."
Keeping the crowds informed is a mechanical sort of process now, he said. Two men helpers, one for offense and the other for defense, relay information to Dr. Elbel. The chief difficulty in spotting players is making out the numbers.
"Accuracy is more important with us than with radio announcers, because people can see whether or not we are right." Dr. Elbel said. "Sometimes the announcements are resented by the crowd."
James Gillispie, pharmacist of the health service, and Fred Six, college junior, have helped Dr. Elbel the past two football seasons. Donald F. Powell, director of intramurals, will help him during basketball season.
Summing up his 13 years of announcing home football and basketball games. Dr. Elbel stressed the need for accuracy.
"There's an old adage in football! 'When in doubt, punt.' In announcing over the public address system, this changes 'When in doubt, don't say anything.' "
High School Puts Stop To Free Football Seats
Falls City, Neb., (U.P)—A colorful pre-game ceremony started at high school football games this year has been discontinued.
The ceremony provided for doucing all the lights during band maneuvers, with miniature lights on the caps of band members outlining various formations.
Officials stopped the practice for financial reasons;
When the lights went out a near-avalanche of non-paying fans streamed over the walls and dashed for seats.

NewsmenNotFooled By Dead Man's Sign
"Reginald's Bus has been a mighty popular mode of transportation lately."
Fond Du Lac., Wis. —(U,P)— A black-frocked widow insisted that a "glowing cross" on the wall of her farm home was a "miraculous" sign from her dead husband, but three newsmen decided it was a reflection from a mirror.
About 1,000 persons have flocked through the small residence of Mrs. William Mulder to view the phenomenon. The widow, along with many of the spectators, regarded it as a miracle.
"Maybe the cross did come from the mirror," said Mrs. Mulder in a heavy German accent. "But I don't know who I didn't see it before my husband died."
"I still think it was the work of God."
Three newsmen who visited the home recently said they saw the cross, an outline of light on the faded pink wallpaper in the dwellings living room.
They traced the source of the light to the bevelled edge of a mirror in the adjoining bedroom. The light came from a lamp, reflected against the mirror edge, and made the cross shine on the wall in the next room.
When they placed a piece of paper over the mirror edge, the cross disappeared.
Mrs. Mulder, a strong and handsome 65-year-old farm wife, wasn't convinced, however.
For one thing, she said, the furniture in the house—including the lamp and mirror—hadn't been moved from their positions for seven years.
Yet, she said, the cross never was noticed until the week after her husband died Oct. 22.

Coffee Prices Climb Higher, But US Won't Drink Tea
Guatemala City, Guatemala—(U.P.)- Two hundred and fifty Guatemalan coffee growers voted recently to delay their deliveries to the United States for 15 days to get higher prices, it has been disclosed. Newspapers reported that growers'
Newspapers reported that growers in Central America and Mexico were trying to get higher prices for coffee that U.S. importers contracted for before the recent sharp rise in prices.
The newspaper, La Hora, said some importers had agreed to the increases. It added that if all other importers also agreed, five central American countries would get an additional 80 million dollars for their coffee crop.
While prices were going up in the Central and South American countries, U.S. beverage men said that U.S. citizens would pay much more for their coffee before becoming a nation of tea drinkers.
Already a home-made cup of coffee costs almost twice as much as a home-made cup of tea—not counting the cream, sugar, and lemon. And American drinkers continue to down 14 cups of coffee for every cup of tea they brew.
The price difference in money terms is about 1 cent a cup. Tea always has been that much cheaper comparatively. Experts figure housewives average 120 cups to a
pound of $1.35 tea, 40 cups to a
pound of 80-cent coffee.
The ratio of tea to coffee purchases by American shoppers is as constant as the difference in price, according to government statistics.
In 1948, the average American consumed 18.9 pounds of coffee and six tenths of a pound of tea, the department of agriculture says.
Grocery and restaurateurs said tea drinking increased about 30 per cent during the rationed war months they held onto half the increase.
Statisticians say that if sales increased in volume, it was only because of a greater population. Coffee consumption was actually lower in 1943, when it was unrationed, than in 1942 when it was rationed for three or four months, they said. Tea was about the same, $ \frac{1}{2} $ pound a person in both years.
As for prices, coffee has gone up 15 to 20 cents a pound in the last quarter. The price have been rising steadily since World War II, wholesalers said.

Club To Give Yule Program
The annual Christmas program,
celebrating the feast of St. Nicholas
and Christmas, will be presented at
the French club meeting at 7:30 p.m.
today.
The program will be given in 131 Strong hall. Christmas customs and carols from various French provinces and a pantomime on the life of St. Nicholas will compose the program. Tuesday is St. Nicholas' day.
McDaniel will sing "Cantique de Noel" by Adolphe Adam, Nancy Ruthraff, College junior, and Nancy Watson, College sophomore, will sing traditional Christmas carols. Virginie Baroudjian, College junior, will read the Biblical story of the Nativity.
Students taking part in the pantomime are: Dean Collins, College senior; Patricia Young, College junior; and Dorothy Durefe and Sarah O'Bryon, College sophomores. Music for the pantomime will be sung by Leonard Pronko, graduate student and Barry McDaniel, fine arts sophomore.
"Pach-Pi de Poulaover," a shepherd's song-dance of Brittany, will be presented by John Grigsby, business junior; John Trantham, education junior; and Haverty and Donovan Hull, College sophomores. The piano accompaniment for the dance, which illustrates the journey of the shepherds to Bethlehem, will be played by Willard Straight, fine arts junior.
Refreshments will include a cake made in the form of a yule log. The cake is a custom of the 'reveillon' or Christmas eve supper in France. All interested persons are invited to attend the program, Miss Mattie E. Crumrine, assistant professor of Romance languages said.
The French club again this year will send a box of clothing and food to a school in France. Contributions of articles or money may be brought to the Christmas meeting or may be left at the French department office, 115 Strong hall.
The word salary comes from "salarium" meaning salt money, since Roman soldiers received part of their pay in salt.

Club Members Dance In Lawrence While Watching Game In Kansas City
The unique experience of dancing in Lawrence while watching a basketball game being played in Kansas City, Mo., was enjoyed by 60 University club members and wives in the club rooms Dec. 3. The feat was made possible by picking up the first live basketball telecast by station WDAF-TV.
The most sports-minded club members sat before the television receiver throughout the game, but many couples danced to the juke box while they watched the K.J. team win a 55 to 34 victory over Rockhurst college.
Before the game, members watched the "Who Said That" show which featured John Cameron Swaye, a student at the University from 1925 to 1928 and pioneer news telecaster.
The receiver was a demonstration set installed by L. Loke Smith, a host for the dance. A covered dish preceeded the telecast.
Five KU Officials To Attend American Alumni Council
Hosts and hostesses for the supper were Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Mills, George Anderson, and Mr. and Mrs. James W. Drury. Hosts and hostesses for the dance were Mr. and Mrs. L. Loke Smith and Mr. and Mrs. Rollin Baker.
Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni association, left Monday for Omaha to attend a meeting of the American Alumni council. Mr. Ellsworth was accompanied by Miss Mildred Cloffelter, assistant secretary of the Alumni association; Irvin Youngberg, executive secretary of the Endowment association; and Marvin Small, 49, newly appointed permanent assistant general secretary of the Alumni association. Thomas Yoe, director of public relations, left Sunday to attend the meeting.

You Can Take So Much—
One of the most competent public servants America has ever had has resigned from his post as chairman of the Atomic Energy commission.
When David E. Lilienthal accepted the job a few years back, he knew that he would be placed in a position of vulnerability to his personal and political enemies. As head of the most super-secret organization the U.S. has ever set up, Lilienthal has been in the awkward position of being unable to answer some of the dirtiest smears ever concocted by the small-potato political mentality.
It is not so clear how Lilienthal has gained the enmity of Senator Bourke Hickenlooper. Republican from Iowa. It was Hickenlooper who brought the "incredible mismanagement" charges against the commission this year. What some observers believe was an attempt to gain publicity for his senatorial race next year seems to have backfired miserably. Hickenlooper's bold charges fizzled out in a cloud of embarassing confusion when he was obliged to produce facts.
Senator Kenneth D. McKellar, Democrat from Tennessee has nursed a white-hot hatred for Lilienthal since the days when he headed the T.V.A. A man like McKellar usually owes his political existence to the weight he can throw around back in the old home state—that is, the number of jobs he can pass around and the number of heads he can make roll. When Lilienthal refused to allow the senator from Tennessee to parcel out jobs in the T.V.A., McKellar became an indefatigable foe of the project. In 1947, when the senate was considering Lilienthal's appointment as chief of the Atomic Energy commission, McKellar practically waged a one-man filibuster of venom and vituperation against Lilienthal's reputation, ability, and past.
Although Lilienthal stood up well through the smears and insults, it appears that at last he has had enough. The fact that party politics has come into our atomic energy program was probably the deciding factor in his resignation.
It's too bad. Men like McKellar and Hickenlooper are a dime a dozen in almost any cheap ward heeler's gathering. Men like David Lilienthal are a little harder to find.-J.W.S.
Christmas Seals
Tuberculosis has been called "the most important of the truly preventable diseases" in the U.S. today. It takes a death toll of nearly 1,000 Americans a week—five of them Kansans.
Half a million Americans-or one person in every 200 to 250 adults-have T.B. in an active stage.
Active progress in the control of tuberculosis was begun in 1904 when the National Tuberculosis association was founded. Since then, the death rate from the disease has been cut by 85 per cent.
This has largely been possible through the work of the association, which sponsors the sale of Christmas seals each year during the holiday season.
If we could wipe out T. B. tomorrow, we might save nearly 50,000 lives in 1850. Unfortunately, there is, as yet, no miracle drug to cure T.B., but we can help.
There is an urgent need for funds to show the need for adequate facilities for prevention and treatment of the disease. Christmas seals will provide this money.
The University's quota for the Christmas seal drive is 50,000 stamps. The deadline is December 21. Less than a dime per person from everyone on this campus will guarantee meeting our quota. We can't afford to fail.-Bill DeLay.
Small Things
Aren't you glad you waited? We read that the graduates this spring will receive sheepskin diplomas instead of the wartime paper numbers. Is sheepskin less susceptible to attic dust than paper?
We read that fashion has decreed that the girls will wear gaily colored burlap material next summer, and does anyone have the courage to try to stop this thing by referring to the wearers as burlap bags?
Russia, the country where everything was invented, has announced that the biggest chess tournament of all time will be held in Moscow. 300,000 contestants will participate, and we wonder if they'll all march through Red square Homecoming game fashion?
Undoubtedly nothing but good communist pawns will be used, but since Tito is reported to be a chess fan, we think the whole thing is planned just to hurt his feelings.
Letter from a '48 grad: . . . I'm still writing a number of feature stories for the paper each week, and you will be surprised to know that the press camera is practically my servant now. I handle it with complete abandon. In fact I almost bully it; flicking its F-stop (a highly technical term which we photographers find difficult to explain to the layman) similar to the way Burt Lancaster cuffs stool pigeons about. Already I have bought a raincoat and wear the collar turned up. Now I'm saving my money for a hat with an upturned brim and have begun calling the city editor "chief." How rakish can you get? . . . Yours, Jim J.
Honorary Music Sorority Gives Varied Music Program Sunday
A handful of interested persons watched the members of Mu Phi Epsilon, honorary music sorority, sing and play their way through a program of varied forms of music Sunday afternoon in Strong auditorium.
By DALE S. ROMIG
The program, which was divided into three parts, opened with a soft, appealing, brass quartet playing "Miserere Mei Deus" (Bird) followed by two madrigal numbers, "Go Ye, My Canzonets" (Morley) and "Ha, Ha; This World Doth Pass" (Weelkes). The madrigals were both light and easy to listen to.
The most noteworthy offering of the first part was the piano performance by Billie George, fine arts senior, of a Prokofieff March Miss George's interpretation of the piece was well done, with much vitality.
In the second part, which consisted of opera and light-opera numbers, Betty Hayward's singing of the aria "Voi lo sapete" from* "Cavalleria Rusticana" by Mascagni was outstanding. Miss Hayward is a fine arts senior.
The always-popular "Fantasy Impromptu" was included in the final portion of the concert entitled classic versus modern. The Chopin

Siamese Twin Girls Have Good Chance To Live Although Joined At The Heads
Los Angeles—(U.P.)—Twin baby girls born here 61-2 months ago have surprised doctors by gaining weight and thriving even though they are joined together at the heads, said Phoebus Berman, a hospital director here.
However, no attempt will be made.
However, no attempt will be made "in the near future" to separate the Siamese twins, May Yvette and Gladys Yvonne Jones. The babies lie with their heads attached at the crown and their feet pointing in opposite directions.
Mr. Berman said the two are too young to undergo thorough examinations to learn if they can be separated. If the brains are joined or if the infants are otherwise vitally joined, it would make successful surgery more improbable. Mr. Berman said. Parts of the skulls would have to be replaced by surgical plates.
The twins were born May 12 to Mrs. John Jones, 38, the mother of nine other children. Doctors said it was a "miracle" she had been able to carry the infants in pregnancy. Mr. Berman said the twins surprised the doctors by gaining weight normally and remaining in the best of health.
Because the cranial link is not a perfect one, doctors believe the babies may have separate brains. When one child lies on her back, the other lies partly on her side
"The hospital probably will continue to care for them because it would be too expensive for their parents to care for them at home or in a private institution."
"But if the twins have joined brains or fused blood vessels nourishing their brains, we probably won't attempt to operate." Mr. Berman said.
The twin's parents have indignantly turned down offers to turn them over to a side show.
Treason is the only crime defined in the Constitution of the United States.
Young Republican Member Will File For State Office
Harry Weed, a Young Republican from Wakefield, has announced that he will file as a candidate for Secretary of State in the 1950 primaries.
In Topeka, three weeks ago, our party leaders expressed concern less they lose the youth of the party. They shall not lose us. We Young Republicans are eager to participate in state and nation- and we shall." Mr. Weed said at the Young Republican convention in Hutchinson.
Mr. Weed has served as chairman of the Washburn University Young Republican club. He was a combat veteran in World War II.
Dr. Ernest P. Edwards, professor of zoology at the University of Kentucky, described the bird life of Michoacan, Mexico in a speech Friday to a group of biologists. The warbler birds, especially the yellow-throated warblers, were discussed by Dr. Edwards. He also told of the birds which inhabit the marshes in the region around Patzcuare lake in western Mexico.

Dr. Edwards served in the air corps during the war and did graduate work at Cornell university after the war. He received his doctor's degree from Cornell the past spring. Edwards has published about six papers on various phases of ornithology.

Mail Parcels Now Advises Abraham
The importance of mailing Christmas packages early was emphasized Monday by R. C. Abraham, superintendent of the University mail station.
He warned that the postage rate for Christmas cards has risen from 1 1-2 cents to 2 cents this year. "Only cards without writing (except for names and addresses) can be sent second-class." Mr. Abraham said. "Second-class matter must not be sealed. We advocate sending Christmas cards first-class because they can be forwarded."
The station will be open from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, and from 8 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. on Saturday.

Three Cities Fall As Nationalists Weaken In China
Hong Kong, Dec. 6—U.P.)-The weakened Nationalist position in Southwest China crumbled along a broad front today as three more major cities went over to the Communists.
Yuchi, only 30 miles South of Kunming, fell to the Communists when the Nationalist garrison revolted and joined with Communist guerrillas.
Communist troops at the same time began a wide sweeping movement South of Chengtu to attack up the Min river valley from the South and pocket an estimated 80,000 Nationalist troops troops retreating North from Chungking.
Communist troops marched into Nanning peacefully Monday Chinese reports said. A third city, Pakhoi, on the gulf of Tonkin 120 miles Southeast of Nanning, and fell to the Communists.
In the Southwest, Communist columns occupied Nanning and the Nationalist provincial government prepared to evacuate Kunming threatened by defections.
Refugees said Pakhoi fell so swiftly that three civil air transport planes there had only one hour to take off for Hainan island and Hong Kong.
Latest renorts said Nationalist Gen. Pai Chung-Hsi, commander of the last intact Nationalist army in Southwest China, was making an orderly march into Litchow peninsula to embark for Hianan island.
Nationalist troops defending Chengtu were reported deploying South and East of the city in efforts to slow up the Communist drive and give Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek time to evacuate the last of his nationalist government.
Latest reports said the Communists had captured Tzekeng, 120 miles Southeast of Chengtu. A second Communist force from Kweichow province was reported sweeping up the Min River vallley toward Loshan, 70 miles South of Chengtu.

Wanted: One Small Tooth
To Prevent Christmas Fires Follow Common Sense Rules
East Chicago, Ind..(U.P.)-Two-month-old Ronald Bernacki won't have his lower front tooth for Christmas.
A dentist extracted the tooth because it was puncturing nipples on the boy's milk bottles and cutting his tongue.
Common sense is the best way to eliminate fire hazards from your Christmas decorations, Paul Ingels, Lawrence chief, and Keith Lawton, director of University dormitories, said today.
"Take all the precautions with Christmas decorations that you can," Chief Ingels said. "You never know when a fire is liable to start."
"Do all you can to minimize the fire hazard of Christmas trees and decorations," advised Mr. Lawton. "I want to urge everyone and especially Sunnyside and dormitory residents against the use of open candles in Christmas decorations."
Chief Ingels listed 10 precautions that would minimize the fire hazard. They are:
1. Choose a small Christmas tree.
2. Keep the tree outdoors until a few days before Christmas.
3. Place the tree in the coolest spot in the tree. Chief Ingels said that the tree would remain fresh and green longer if placed in a container of moist sand. The container may be decorated to resemble the base of the tree.
4. Use only Christmas tree lights that have been approved by the Underwriters' laboratories. Inspect the lights each year to make sure that the wiring is not frayed.
8. Use flame proof decorations
7. Change the position of the lights when the needles around the light become brown.
6. Have the switch to turn the lights off away from the tree. If fire should break out the lights could then be turned out.
9. Keep Christmas decorations away from chairs and tables. This would prevent the accidental igniting of decorations by cigarets.
Chief Ingels said that flame proof cotton and colored paper were made especially for Christmas decorations and he urged their use.
Mr. Lawton agreed with the 10 precautions recommended by Chief Ingles and added four of his own. These are:
10. Have the curtains at least six inches away from any electric window decoration.
1. Don't overload electrical circuits. He said that many fires had been caused by having too many extensions on one circuit.
2 Don't place the Christmas tree light bulb parallel to the branch of the tree.
4. Inspect the decorations after a party to be sure that no lights are left burning or any cigarettes are still lit.
3. Turn off Christmas lights when there is no one in the house.
Mr. Lawton said that every floor and hallway of University dormitories are equipped with fire-extinguisher. These extinguisher are both the chemical and water type. He said that most dormitories have fire drills once a month.
NARA DE TUERCO
The Christmas spirit began to reign over Strong hall the past weekend when a 22-foot tree on a revolving stand was set up in the rotunda. Pausing to admire the decorations are Joe Evans, Lloyd Mickelson, and Rollin Crawford, all College Freshmen.
"The old-fashioned tree" was the theme used by the design department this year when its students and faculty members constructed "home-made" decorations. Ray Ottinger, instructor in design, was chairman of the group.
Bushels of colored ornaments, 36 gallons of popcorn, 13 strings of electric lights, hundreds of cranberries, and many paper dolls were among the decorations hung on the tree Dec. 3. Men from the buildings and grounds department removed the chandelier from the ceiling to make room for the Christmas tree. It is the largest ever set up in Strong hall, Mr. Ottinger said.
Willard Straight Is Outstanding Feature Of KU Symphony Concert Program
Bv DALE S. ROMIG
The performance of Willard Straight, fine arts junior, was easily the most outstanding feature of the program presented Monday night by the University of Kansas Symphony orchestra, directed by Russell L. Wiley, professor of band and orchestra.
Straight played the piano so Cesar Franck's "Variations Symphoniques," a task which proved his talent. Except for slightly stuttering string pizzicato accompaniment, the final portion of the "Variations" was the best of the three.
The other soloist on the program, James Sellards, education senior, did not show the polish that Straight exhibited, even though at times he displayed much skill with his cornet. He played the "Concerto for Trumpet and Orchestra" by Haydn.
The program opened with waltzes from Richard Strauss's "Der Rosenkavalier" and included as the major work of the evening, Brahms Third symphony.
Jefferson County Club To Hold Dance
The Jefferson county club of the Statewide Activities commission will complete dance plans at a meeting at 5 p.m. Thursday in 119 Fraser hall, said Mary Anne O'Neill, chairman.
The dance will be held at Oskaloosa during Christmas vacation to raise money for the Jayhawker yearbook subscriptions. All Jefferson county students are invited.
Miss Jackson is from the University of Kansas Medical Center.
Three Clubs To Hear Medical Center Speaker
Miss Alma Jackson will discuss the relationship of physical therapy, pre-nursing, and occupational therapy at a combined meeting of the three clubs at 7:30 p.m. today at the Union.
Club members will hold a square dance after the meeting.
Scientists Say Bomb Shipments Probably Useless
Washington, Dec. 6—U.(P.)—House spy hunters today were on the trail of a mysterious wartime shipment to Russia of A-bomb uranium which may have been "doctored" to make it useless.
It also was learned that a ban imposed by the late President Roosevelt preventing government agencies from giving Congress access to confidential material may be lifted next month. The security ban, which President Truman has kept in effect, and the mystery cargo were key items in a broadening inquiry into shipment of atomic materials and other secrets via the aerial lend-lease pipeline to Russia.
The names of such high wartime officials as the late Harry Hopkins, White House confidant, and former vice president Henry A. Wallace have been linked to the inquiry so far. Wallace said he had "absolutely nothing to do" with the shipsments. Hopkins' relatives, friends and close associates branded as "incredible" charges that he was partly responsible.
George Racey Jordan, former Army Air force major, touched off the inquiry with a report that Russian agents sent tons of maps, documents, atomic materials and other secret items through the pipeline at Great Falls, Mont., where Jordan was lend-lease "expediter" in 1943-44
Wallace's name was brought up by Fulton Lewis, Jr., last night. He said the onetime vice president and cabinet member overrode Lt. Gen Leslie R. Groves to speed up delivery of the atomic materials. Groves was in charge of the wartime atomic energy project.
The State department announced that in April, 1943, a license was issued for shipping 1400 pounds of unrefined uranium and 25 pounds of uranium to Russia. The following November, it said, approval was given for sending 1,000 grams (about two pounds) of heavy water. Both are bomb components.
There have been hints of a "doctored" uranium shipment. It is known that uranium can be tainted to make it worthless and heavy water presumably also could be treated.
Dr. Grothaus Gets Puzzle From Collector In Illinois
Dr. Clarence Grothaus, research associate for the Research foundation at the University, has added a new puzzle to his collection of 325 "brain busters."
The puzzle was a gift from a fellow puzzle expert in Illinois who learned of the Grothaus collection from a story in a St. Louis newspaper. The Illinois admirer, a 68-year-old physician, began corresponding with Dr. Grothaus to promote an exchange of ideas.
The University's puzzle expert believes a hobby can be worthwhile as well as pleasant. Dr. Grothaus uses his hobby to bring before the public many sociological and emotional problems. He often exhibits his collection to youth, church, and service organizations.
The chemist was recently contacted by a veteran's hospital concerning staging an exhibition of his collection for the patients. The recreation director of the hospital was interested in Dr. Grothaus' hobby because she said that most of the patients are hospitalized for long periods of time and that a hobby would give many of them long hours of enjoyment.
Dr. Grothaus became interested in puzzles while a small boy and has been collecting them ever since. For 28 years, while teaching in small colleges in Illinois and Oklahoma as well as Kansas, he has continued working with his hobby. His collection includes peg, mercury, gravity, magnetic, block, wire, string, geometrical, sliding block, centrifugal, sliding panel, and mathematical
puzzles. He is still looking for new ideas.
Most of the puzzles were constructed by Dr. Grothaus from examples and ideas found in books on hobbies and recreation. He has searched libraries throughout the United States for new types. He even managed to examine part of the 29 miles of books in the library of Congress, but gave up because he already had all the types he found there.
Once, while traveling through western Illinois on a summer vacation, Dr. Grothaus stopped his automobile at a service station to buy gasoline. He went into the station to pay the attendant and noticed a puzzle on the desk. He pick it up and played with a for a few minutes but could not work it. He asked the man where it had come from and was told that the puzzle had been left there by a traveler. Dr. Grothaus found that it was an original idea and showed such interest that the attendant gave the toy to him. It has since become one of the prize "sticklers" of his collection.
Dr. Grothaus' interest in puzzles has been so keen that his wife and two children have become hobbyists.

Ceremony Held At Pearl Harbor
Honolulu, T.H., Dec. 7 — U(P)P — Only a solemn five-minute ceremony aboard the rusted deck of the sunken battleship Arizona marked the eighth anniversary today of the Japanese attack on pearl harbor.
A small group of military commanders and Oren E. Long, acting governor, gathered at 8 a.m. (H.S.T.) noon (C.S.T.) the hour when the Japanese blitz attack was at its height—to hear an invocation by Capt. E. B. Harp, Pacific fleet chaplain. His prayer was followed by a moment of silence and then a bugler plued "taps."
The service was arranged on the eve of the anniversary at the suggestion of Admiral Arthur W. Radfordom, Pacific fleet commander-in-chief. A navy spokesman said Admiral Racindorom did not want the day to go unobserved but wished a minimum of fanfare.
Other branches of the military held no special services to commemorate the day. One military spokesman said some commanders were opposed to "celebrating a mistake."
The only other sign of an anniversary of the "day of infamy" was furnished by a group of girl scouts and their mothers, who were scheduled to tour Pearl Harbor by boat and drop flower leis on the water in memory of the men who died under a rain of Japanese bombs.
Cold Wave Hits Midwest
The cold wave was preceded by a snowstorm that laid three to eight inches of new snow across the Northern peninsula of Michigan and Northern Wisconsin. The Pacific storm that hit Oregon and Washington today brought with it chilling rains and high winds.
Weather bureau officials at Portland, Ore., said the series of storms sweeping the ocean was a usual winter condition but that they were forming "at least a month ahead of schedule." Such storm series, they said, usually begin moving across the ocean in December or January.
Temperatures began sinking as the cold wave poured down from the Hudson Bay area into Wisconsin, upper Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa and the Dakotas. The mercury is expected to hit 15 below zero degrees in some sections of Minnesota tonight. Some parts of Wisconsin expected minimums of eight below.
By UNITED PRESS
A cold wave swept into the midwest today, pushing temperature below zero, as snowstorms hit the Upper Great Lakes and east coast areas. The Pacific Northwest was hi by the first of a series of storm raging across the Pacific Ocean from North America to Japan.
Military Ball Queen To Be Crowned Friday
Approximately 1,000 persons are expected to attend the joint army-navy-air force R.O.T.C. Military ball to be held from 9 p.m. until midnight Friday in the Military Science building.
The crowning of the Military ball queen by Col. Edward R. Kumpe, professor of military science, will climax an evening of dancing, entertainment, and refreshments. The queen has been selected, but her identity will not be disclosed until intermission time at the ball.
Jimmy Sellard's orchestra will play for the ball. Intermission will be from 10:30 to 11 p.m. In addition to the crowning of the queen, the intermission will include a hand balancing act, the Delta Gamma quartet, and a crack drill team of the Pershing Rifles. Myron M. Thomason, College senior, will act as master of ceremonies.
The theme of the Military ball will center around the seal of the National Military establishment. The Military Science ballroom is being decorated with color streamers. Candles will provide lights for the formal dance.
All. R.O.T.C. personnel—cadets, midshipmen, and officers—will wear the uniforms of their service at the ball, said Lt Lewis E. Bolts, instructor in naval science.
Lieutenant Bolts is the navy representative on the Military ball supervisory committee. Capt. John N. Barley, assistant professor of air science, is the air force representative, and Capt. Wiliam Hensel, professor of military science, is the army representative on the committee.

False Gods' Shows Conflict In Modern Religious Beliefs
By BILLIE STOVER
The current University Players production, "False Gods," carries a heavy load of social criticism dealing with modern religious thought. Because of the high sentiments of the theme, the tendency of the actors Tuesday night was to overplay their parts.
Harold Harvey as Satni, Darlene Van Biber as Mioris, and Bernice Brady as Yankee, have convincing performances that made several scenes outstanding. Harvey is a speech instructor, Miss Van Biber an assistant speech instructor, and Miss Brady an education senior.
Mieris farewell to the goddess Isis before the idol's destruction, a scene which could easily have been overplayed was realistically tragic. The talk between Yaoma and Satni when she believed him to be an emissary of the gods, also seemed authentic.
The first act was the weakest, partly because the audience had to become accustomed to the black wigs and overzealous attitude of the
Egyptians toward their gods. In following scenes, the slaves seemed more feeble-minded than ignorant.
The dramatic high point of the play was a crowd scene in the temple, during act four. The cries of the people for help from the goddess, the incantations of the high priest, and the pity and struggle within Satni, all seemed realistic.
The second act and two final acts of the play were strongest in audience appeal. The conflict in religious beliefs was evident throughout the play.
Other performances will be given at 8:15 p.m. today, Thursday,and Friday in Fraser theater.
New York, Dec. 7—U.P.)-James C. Petruffa's Musicians union today banned the use of college bands at basketball games in Madison Square Garden styling them "a business venture for profit."
Petrillo Bans College Bands At Ball Games
Petrillo's ban will not affect the use of the University band at basketball games.
Officials of six metropolitan colleges said they would fight the order, fearing it might be extended to include football games and other athletic contests. Local 802 of Petrillo's American Federation of Labor imposed the rule in letters to New York university, Fordham, Brooklyn college, City college, Long Island university, and St. John's college.
"Our band will continue to play at basketball games," said Russell L. Wiley, professor of band and orchestra.
Professor Wiley explained that the University has an arrangement whereby University employees manage Hoch auditorium, even when such Union groups as the Robert Shaw Chorale appear on the stage.
The Archery club will meet from 4 to 6 p.m. today in Robinson gym annex.
City college and Long Island university, matched in a double header tomorrow night against Southern Methodist university and Kansas State college respectively, immediately told their bands to stay home. But officials of the institutions said they would protest the union action.
Archery Club Will Meet Today in Robinson Annex
Typical of the attitude of college officials was the comment of Sam Winograd, secretary of the City college faculty athletics committee, who called it a "ticklish situation where the interests of a union come into conflict with the long established tradition of all universities."
The union contended that professional musicians should be used because the popular Garden matches, which are a big drawing card for important intersectional matches, are a big business. The union therefore "suggested" that "you discontinue the use of your own orchestras and bands if they have been performing at athletic events at the garden in the past."
The union letter, signed by local 802 Vice President Samuel Suber, did not say what action would be taken if the colleges did not comply with the union's demand. However, officials of the Garden, who are taking a "neutral stand" in the controversy, noted that it would unfair list which would not allow the popular sports and amusement arena to hire professional bands for its numerous other attractions.
Joie L. Stapelton, associate professor of physical education, instructed club members at the last meeting on the techniques of archery.
WEATHER
Kansas—clear and colder is the forecast today. Temperatures tonight are expected to dip to new low levels for the season in the Eastern part of the state. Low tonight will be 15-20 degrees in the North and West and 20-25 degrees in the East.
A mass of cold air surged over Kansas from the North and held temperatures in the 40's today in the East and in the 30's in the West. Sharp Northerly winds cut across Eastern Kansas, with velocities of 20 to 30 miles an hour.

Paralyzed Artist Holds Brush Between Teeth
Lunenburg, N. S.—(U.P.)People come to see Earl Bailly paint with a brush held between his teeth and go away talking about one of the finest artists in Canada.
He must be good, when his seascapes grab the imagination of his visitors in spite of the fact he weighs only some 10 pounds and his arms are useless.
Those who have never seen him think he must be strapping big fellow because of the strength shown in his pictures. He is handsome, well-tanned and with a warm smile, brownish hair in neat waves and a well-trimmed moustache, that is the first impression.
The second one is that you see him sitting in a wheelchair. Then you notice he never moves his hands. He can't.
Bailly was stricken with infantile paralysis when he was three years old. If it hadn't been for his mother, he would have spent the remainder of his life in a useless way.
By the time he was seven years one of his drawings had been printed in a national publication. Three years later he was turning out Christmas cards in watercolors. At the age of 18, he held his first show in his home here.
But she was a teacher before she married and she made up her mind that the boy would get an education. It took months to teach him to write, gripping the pencil between his teeth.
When he turned to paints, he began with wagon paint. They were awkward pictures, but good enough to interest the artists who flock to the shores here in summer time. When he was 27 he attended a school at Rockport, Me., under George Ennis, American watercolorist.
Painting is at best a modest living for most artists. For the handicapped Nova Scotian painter, the same rite applied, only more so. He made a small sum each year, though his pictures hung in the homes of the famous.
Customers included W. L. MacKenzie King, the former prime minister of Canada; the late President Roosevelt; Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret Rose, and Winston Churchill, a painter in his own right.
The Bailey paintings were of the countryside around this coastal town; of dories in coves, and fishing villages, and men working on fishing smacks or lumbering oxendrawn carts.
He was interested in another form of art, the short story, he said.
Mementoes of his famous acquaintances paper the walls of his studio. Bailly got the only autograph of Queen Elizabeth during the royal tour of Canada in 1939.
But as yet he has not tried to make money in the latter field. There wes, in fact, little trace of business man in him. He could cash in on fame but he stuck to commisioned work.
Prof. C. L. Lambertson of Dalhousie University described his work, with these words:
"Each picture he does represents a fresh problem, a new approach, plenty of hard thinking. He has beauty, directness, simplicity in his paintings—aren't these the essential qualities of the best works of art?"
Blind Boy Has Perfect Aim
Pierre. S. D.—(U.R.)—Duke Benton, a blind farmbird, waited while his dog treed a racoon. Then Duke located the animal with a stick, slid his gun along the stick and fired. The 'coon fell to the ground, dead.

T-N-T POPCORN for perfect popping
Washington—(U.P.)The old soldier was a sick man—even back in April, 1944, but the weight of the years hadn't knocked the fight out of his heart.
General Pershing Fought War In Bed
J. J.P. called an aide to his bedside at Walter Reed hospital and dictated:
The old man signed his name to the statement, half-lieved the cover, and sent it along—by regular mail—to the office of war information.
"Statement by General of the Armies John J. Pershing on D-day, June 6, 1944. (Remember this was in April!)"
American troops have landed in western Europe. The day of invasion has arrived."
The intelligence was, of course,
a top drawer secret. President
Roosevelt, himself, wasn't sure
whether the planned landing
would come off on schedule. But
the old-timer, who had slogged
through the mire of France in
another war to lead his men to
victory, was confident that the
sons of his boys from World War
I would come through.
This part of the story has never been told before about "Black Jack," as the general affectionately was called. Anyhow, the statement arrived in the morning mail along with a lot of stuff that was destined to be pitched into the wastebasket. The man who opened it was Sam Davenport, one of the executives in the O.W.I. Office.
"The thing had come unsealed."
Mr. Davenport said. "After I read it, I was trembling so that I couldn't remember the combination to our vault." Mr. Davenport has the statement. It is a treasured possession and lies in his safety deposit box.
"That's the way old Black Jack operated, though," he said. "He was trusted implicitly, out of respect to his position. He knew every secret as soon as the high command did, or before, sometimes, and the old man lav there on his bed and followed World War II by radio and maps. But he'd give one a fright the way he'd send things through the mail."
Ouija Boards get their name from a combination of the French and German words for yes.

TOMMY WILLIAMS
Kansan photo by Bob Blank
Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority announces the pinning of Miss Yvonne Josserand, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Guy D. Josserand, Dodge City, to Mr. Keith Wilson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Keith Wilson, Independence, Mo.
Miss Josserand's attendants, the Misses Virginia Carter, Elizabeth Dillon and Jane Schmidt, wore gardenia corsages.
The pinning was announced Dec. 2 when a fraternity brother, posing as a representative of the Memorial association, arrived at the sorority house to exhibit slides. The last slide contained the pins and name cards.
Miss Josserand is a journalism senior. Mr. Wilson is a second year law student and a member of Phi Gamma Delta fraternity.
Receives Degree
Henry D. Remple, psychology graduate, passed an examination the past Thursday for a doctor's degree in psychology. He has also completed his thesis, "A Personality Study of Three Crime Groups."
Born in Russia, Mr. Remple was a child when he came to America with his parents who settled in Nebraska. He received his primary education in Nebraska and then attended the University of Minnesota where he received his A.B. degree in 1933 and his M.A. degree in 1941. He attended Stanford university in 1946.
Mr. Remple was an assistant instructor and research assistant at the University of Minnesota from 1932 to 1934; assistant personnel officer at the Farm Credit Administration at Wichita from 1934 to 1937; and counselor at the federal reformatory at El Reno, Okla., from 1937 to 1942. He was an army personnel consultant from 1942 to 1945.
Mr. Remple has been an instructor at the University from 1946 to 1948. He will be the first to achieve a doctor's degree in psychology under the present chairman, Roger Barker.
Dr. Fritz Heider, professor of psychology, gave a tea at his home Sunday in honor of Mr. Remple's achievement.

Australian Baby Sitters May Form Their Own Union
Canberra, Australia—(U.P.) The federal executive of the Australian Labor party wants baby sitting classified as an occupation.
Members feel that the occupation of baby sitter has become of national importance. They also want baby sitters to be provided through the government's employment service.
A. S. McAlphin, president of the A. L. P., said if an award is made for baby sitters, they would come under the Miscellaneous Workers' union.
Tri Alpha Petition Accepted; Alpha Phi Becomes 13th Sorority
The petition of nearly 50 members of Alpha Alpha Alpha. University of Kansas local social group, for installation as a chapter of Alpha Phi international sorority, was granted by the sorority's national board Tuesday.
Members of Tri Alpha will be formally pledged on Sunday, Dec. 18, at the Alpha Phi chapter house, Washburn college, in Topeka. Alpha Phi will be the 13th national sorority at K.U.
Mrs. R. E. Ming, Alpha Phi district governor from Bellaire, Tex., will conduct the pledging service.
Alpha Phi sorority was founded at the University of Syracuse in 1872. The second chapter was established at Northwestern university nine years later.
Alpha Phi was the first women's fraternity to build and occupy a
chapter house. It was the first to have a visiting delegate system and to complete a $50,000 endowment fund.
The first inter-sorority conference was called by Alpha Phi in 1902. An organization was formed at that time which later became the National Fanhellenic conference.
Former Career Girls Become Poor Mothers, But Some Moderns Not Swayed By Vocations
Washington, Dec. 7—(U.P.)-Dr. Leo Kanner of Johns Hopkins hospital said today the former secretary too often is a poor mother because she regards her child more or less as a substitute for her tynewriter.
Women in the KU, group to be pledged to Alpha Phi are from 21 Kansas towns, Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, New Mexico, and Oklahoma.
The Baltimore physician told an American Medical association's clinical meeting here that the same holds true for salsegirls, factory workers, laboratory technicians, librarians and nurses.
This difficulty, he said, is most pronounced in the case of "the first born child of the secretary, the salesgirl, the factory piece worker. The laboratory technician, the librarian, or the nurse."
The child, he said, bears the "whole brunt of tense perfectionism, being more or less a substitute for the typewriter, the cash register, the machine, the test tube, the book shelf or the medicine cabinet."
Claiming that the old-fashioned method of raising children still is the best, Kanner said a mother's cultural influences are apt to deprive her children of affection.
"Young women are no longer reared for the main purpose of becoming wives and mothers," he said. "Most girls nowadays are prepared for a vocation."
"This mode of living prior to marriage can be a major boon to the stable woman who comes to married life enriched by the responsibility, activity and associations which the job affords her. But very often the job puts a premium on punctuality, meticulousness and perfectionism which it often becomes impossible for the mother to shake off when dealing with her children."
Kanner said pediatricians, psychologists, and psychiatrists have "added their shares to the mechanization and intimidation of mothers in the first quarter of this century."
"Calories were calculated, and the clock determined the number of feedings and hours of sleep for the baby," he said. "The new system

Kanner had a few good things to say about modern-day mothers, however.
"There are many calm, stable, fond mothers who do not allow themselves to be swayed by all these cultural assaults on their common sense," he said.

Disabled Veterans Repair Toys For Forgotten Tots
Washington—(U.P.)—If you know how, it's easy to take a broom stick, add a home-made head fore, glue on a hank of yarn aft—and come up with a dandy hobby horse.
A doll minus a couple of toes can $ \textcircled{4} $
A doll minus a couple of toes can be made cuddly if you stitch a pair of felt shoes to cover the wound. Knitted caps do a lot to doll up a dolly whose head has a bashed in look.
A train minus a wheel is easy to fix if you have a wheel-size spool and paint to match the rest of the set. A man who can use his hands can do some fancy tricks with a stack of scrap lumber, a lemon crate or an empty cigar box.
A man can, if he knows how.
The forgotten men of the last couple of shooting wars—the disabled veterans—know how. And they are using their hands to help make it a merry one this Christmas for the forgotten kids of America—many of them orphaned by man-made conflicts they do not yet understand.
The veterans administration, under Gen. Carl Gray, is backing the programs going on in most of the 130 vet hospitals, where men are taught to use their hands to forget the past and keep their minds off the misery of the present.
Many agencies contribute aid in the projects. The Red Cross, among them, plus a lot of local groups around the country.
Miss Mariana Bing, assistant national director of the Red Cross service in veterans hospitals, has visited many of the centers.
"There isn't a vet hospital in the country which does not have a workshop in the basement, and the fellows and women veterans, too, do a wonderful job." Miss Bing said. "I have seen playthings that came in looking as though they were beyond help finally turned into very usable toys."
The private agencies, working quietly, do a recruiting job. They call on Sunday school teachers, unions, and individuals to contribute and collect old toys. The skilled supervisors are selected from the volunteers to direct the work, which gots on the year around.
Down in Murfreesboro, Tenn., which is not a great metropolis, the Red Cross has 17 small chapters. Volunteers are recruited and many of them commute as far as 60 or 70 miles a day to do their bit.
Truck drivers and hod carriers work side by side with society women and bank presidents. They direct and help the veterans to turn out playthings for needy tots in the area. (In all sections, the toys which are repaired and made in the hospitals go to children in the vicinity. A disabled veteran can designate what he turns out to his own kids or to friends if he wishes.)
In Murfreesboro, Miss Bing said,
the toys are turned out in lots of
50 or 100 of a kind.
The toys are distributed, after they are repaired and repainted, by various welfare agencies.
And who benefits from all this?
The youngsters first. The poor ones get toys they wouldn't otherwise find under the Christmas tree.
They're happy.
The veterans. They are finding
Linn County Club Plans
To Have Christmas Dance
At a meeting of the Linn county club Tuesday, it was decided to have a dance during the Christmas holidays in Pleasanton. The club also plans to show the film, "This Is Your University," at county high schools during Easter vacation; said Robert Banks, club chairman.
Medical Course Is Lengthened
The annual postgraduate course in therapeutics will be held Monday, Dec. 12 through Thursday, Dec. 15 at the University of Kansas Medical center, Kansas City.
The course has usually been only three days long, but this year an extra day has been added because of special subjects requested by practicing physicians. Instructional emphasis will be given to evaluations of newer drugs and therapeutic procedures.
Six guest instructors will teach the course. Twenty-five members of the University faculty will participate. The guest instructors are as follows: Garfield G. Duncan, Jefferson Medical college, Philadelphia; Miss Mary Jane Gerkin, dietician, Kansas City, Mo.; Dr. Sara M. Jordan, Lahey clinic, Boston; Pro. Helen McLachlan, St. Louis university, St. Louis; Dr. Earl W. Neitherton, Cleveland Clinic Foundation hospital, Cleveland; and Dr. Theodore E. Woodward, University of Maryland school of medicine, Baltimore.
1800MenIdle In Oak Ridge
Oak Ridge, Tenn., Dec. 7—(U.P.) Contractors affected by a wildcat construction walkout at atomic installations here today were expected to open the way for a Taft-Hartley law injunction by filing secondary boycott charges against the striking workers.
The strike began abruptly late Monday when some 250 A.F.L steamfitters, truck drivers and operating engineers walked off the job. More union construction workers joined them Tuesday, and by that night the situation reached general strike proportions with more than 1,800 men idle.
Carpenters and common laborers were still on the job at various projects here Tuesday. They were expected to join the strike today, however, making the construction tie-up at this atomic city complete. No official reason for the strike was given. But it appeared that the use of non-union labor on a pipe-line job was at the root of the trouble.
Three phases of expansion at Oak Ridge were slowed up or halted by the work stoppage. They were the building of homes and a new school, a gas pipeline for atomic ovens and laboratories, and construction of a new gaseous diffusion plant for making uranium-235, a vital atombomb ingredient.
Government negotiators, Atomic Energy Commission labor experts and representatives of involved unions conferred Tuesday in an effort to resolve the trouble which led to the strike, but no progress was reported.

Six Attend Quill Meeting
An expansion of membership to accredited junior colleges was voted to the constitution of the American College Quill club at their national convention held at Kansas State college Dec. 2 and 3.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 7.1940
SPOTLIGHT on SPORTS
By GEORGE BROWN, JR.
BY GEORGIE BROWN JR.
The "non-impressive" Jayhawker basketball team will play a highly rated Purdue team here Saturday.
I say "non-impressive" in the same sense as used by the Kansas City Star and Times in reporting the K.U. game with Rockhurst.
The young Jayhawkers might not have been an all America impressive team Saturday, but they were also not "lackadaisical."
A lackadaisical club won't hardly run up 33 points in one half—only one point less than Rockhurst could manage the whole game.
The "apparently not title bound" Jayhawkers have not, to my knowledge, been billed as crown wearing material this year. Coach F. C. Allen has stated that this club will be the one to start K.U. basketball on the upward climb out of the conference cellar. Here's hoping and also betting they'll do just that. Coach Allen has also clearly stated that you can't very well expect a last place club to jump to a title in one season. It has also been made plain that the sophomores—and Allen's got three in the starting lineup—will make errors—they may costly ones. But, I believe, they'll also beat some good teams before the season is over.
Turning to Clyde Lovellette—what does the Star expect? He's racked up 43 points in two games—not bad for his FIRST TWO varsity games.
Lovelette may not at this stage be as smooth as Kansas State's Clarence Brannum—but he also hasn't played as long—Probably won't either. Brannum, grandpa of the Big Seven, will probably still be at K. State's pivot spot when Clyde's college days are long over.
IM Adds Bowling To Its Schedule
As far as Brannum handling Love-
Bowling has been added to the list of sports for the men's winter intramural program, Don Pierce, intramural director said today.
Thirty-six teams have thus far signed to participate in the single round robin tourney. The teams are divided into three leagues of 12 teams each. In a single round robin tourney every team plays every other team once.
Trophies will be given to each division winner and to the championship team.
At the end of the 11 rounds necessary for every team play all other teams in their division, the top two teams in each of the divisions will play a single elimination tournament to decide the championship.
The schedule is still open for additional teams to participate, Mr. Pierce said, if there are any more entries at least six more teams will have to enter to make the round robin and single elimination tournaments work out.
"I would like to have a fourth leaue." Mr. Pierce said, "because it would make it easier to schedule the tournaments. If there are six more teams which would enter we will be glad to have them."
The teams which are now entered are as follows:
Division I: Oread hall Accountants; Oread hall I: Oread hall II: A.R.O.T.C. I; A.R.O.T.C. II; 1100 club; Lucky Strikers; the Hawkers; Freshman Team; Gym Team; Four Spares; and Triangle.
Division II; Sigma Nu III; Delta Tau Delt I; T.K.E.I. Phi Gam IV; A.T.O. II; Phi Gam I; Kappa Sigma; Phi Kappa Tau; Phi Delta Theta; Beta A; Silent Men; and Phi Kappa Sigma III.
Division III: Sigma Nu II; Sigma Nu I; Phi Kappa Sigma I; Delta Tau Delta II; T.K.E. I; T.K.E. III; Phi Gam II; Sigma Pi Eps; Pi K.A. I; A.T.O. I; Phi Gam II; and Phi Kappa Sigma II.

Claude Houchin, six-foot five-inch senior guard from Muncie, is expected to handle much of this year's scoring from the outside with his high arching swishers. Houchin is regarded as one of the best long shot artists to play for Kansas. "Houch" finished second among K.U. scorers last year with 24 points in 24 games. In conference play, he finished seventh with a 114 point total. Besides his timely scoring he is regarded as an outstanding man on the boards.
Ray Evans Has Been Both All-American Cager, Gridster
The average K.U. student or fan has heard much about the prowess of "Riflin" Ray Evans, that is, most know that he was an all-American in football but there their knowledge ends. Few realize that he is the only man in the last 18 years and one of six in collegiate history to gain first team all-American honors in both football and basketball.
This fact, which so clearly shows Evans' place in the all-time picture, has been strangely overlooked and almost belongs in the "little known facts about well known people" department.
Three selections have established themselves as the top "all" teams in college sports. They are the Grantland Rice, Associated Press teams in football and the Helm's Foundation teams in basketball.
Evans made first team all-America on both the Rice and A.P. selections in 1947. He reached his
llette—he'll get his first of three chances in the Big Seven tournament Dec. 27. The Star predicts Lovellette won't have a chance.
The Star also states that "Kansas State's Wildcats are a better December basketball team than Kansas' Jayhawkers by ouite a bit."
It shouldn't take an overwhelming amount of brains to arrive at this conclusion. Kansas State has a veteran club—they finished third last year and worked as a unit most of this time—nuf said.
I, for one, am not ready to leap from the Kansas bandwagon because they committed the unforgivable sins of defeating Rockhurst by only 21 points and lost by four to a good Creighton team.
peak in basketball before leaving for the service, making first string all-America on the Helm's teams in both 1942 and 1943. The first time, the spring of 1942, was his sophomore year.
This double-sport first team all-America achievement is so rare that only five other men have ever done it, and none of them were from a school west of the Mississippi river.
Last man to do it was Wesley Fessler of Ohio State, present head football coach for the Buckeyes. He earned the honor in football for the 1929 and 1930 seasons and in basketball for 1931.
Two Michigan greats have made it. Bennett Oosterbaan, present head football coach of the Wolverines, attained first team honors no less than five times. He was named in football in 1926, 1927 and 1928, and in basketball for the 1927 and 1928 seasons. Harry Kipke of Michigan was selected in football for 1922 and basketball 1924.
Victor Hanson of Syracuse made it in football for 1926 and basketball, 1925, 1926, and 1927. Charles Carney of Illinois was on the list in football for 1920 and basketball for 1920 and 1922.

Chicago, Dec. 7—(U.P.) — Former heavyweight Joe Louis battles Pat Valentino of San Francisco in the Chicago stadium tonight, and a victory for the "Brown Bomber" might be the opening of his comeback campaign.
727 Mass.
Louis was expected to weigh about 222 pounds for the brawl compared to 185 for Valentino. They will wear 10-ounce gloves, two over the usual heavyweight mitts, for the exhibition bout, scheduled for 10 rounds.
Charles fought Valentino in San Francisco last September and although he was losing on points at the end of seven rounds, he knocked out the tousel-headed westerner in the eighth to hold his championship.
But Jolting Joe will be trying for a knockout before the eighth round, and has said that if he succeeds he might start working toward a genuine title fight with present titleholder Ezzard Charles.
Referring to the Charles-Valentino set-to. Louis said:
"I just want to better Charles' record against Valentino, e v e n though the gloves will weigh 10 ounces."
Nearly 10,000 are expected to see the match.

Jerry Waugh, slender six-foot junior, is regarded as one of the conference's finest defensive wizards and is often called "The Sheriff" for his close guarding of "hot-shots". Waugh is a fine ball handler and is used as "quarterback" on Coach Allen's two in three out system when the club isn't using the post. Jerry finished third in K.U. scoring last year with 173 points.
Women's IM Basketball Starts With Many High Scoring Contests
Women's 1949-50 intramural basketball season was opened with a six-game schedule Tuesday night. Only one game was close but the rest provided some exciting moments for the few spectators.

Alpha Delta Pi had to fight to protect their half-time lead, but defeated Corbin by a last minute field goal to win 19 to 17. Corbin trailed by four points at the half but came back to tie until the last moments.
Lois Lacy and Mary Jane Martin were a double-barrell attack to lead the winners with eight points each. Betty Gronte tailed eight
points for Corbin and Janet Lull was close with 6.

High scorer for the Kappa's was Kathleen McKelvey with 16 points. Her teammate, Adeliade Schutz, poured in 15 Mary Ann Pitts scored six points for I.W.W. and Joyce Herschell made four.

Now coaching for his ninth year Oklahoma, Wilkinson was chosen head coach of the College All Star team for the 1949 all-star game in Chicago. He is the youngest coach ever to be named for this honor. He played college football at the University of Chicago, played guard and quarterback under Coach Bernie Bierman when the Gophers won the national collegiate championship. As a graduate in 1937, he quarterbacked the College All Stars to their first victory of all time at Soldier's field over the Green Bay Packers, professional champions.
Wilkinson was line coach at Oklahoma in 1946, but took Jim Tatum's place as head coach the following year. In his first year as head coach, Wilkinson's Sooner team set an all time modern record in rushing, broke all attendance records, and finished with a won-and-lost percentage surpassed by only one Sooner team of the past 27 years. His 1948 team finished 10-1 and defeated North Carolina 14 to 6 in the Sugar Bowl.
At Iowa Pre-Flight in 1943, when, as a navy lieutenant, he coached the centers and quarterbacks on Coach Don Faurot's all-victorious Seahawks, Wilkinson became sold on the practicality of Faurot's "Split T" formation.
At Minnesota Wilkinson won the Big Ten medal awarded by Minnesota to the graduating senior most outstanding in scholarship and athletics.

Santa's Mail Contains Hopes, Dreams, Heartaches
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Press Staff Correspondent
Santa Heim, Md.—(U.P.)-Santa Claus gets more mail than anybody—President Truman, even.
I've been peeking into the jolly old fellow's mail sack at this Washington suburb where Harry Harrison (Santa) Heim is busy making the shiny pretties that go on Christmas trees.
Here are some samples:
The thousands of letters that come in here are the juvenile literary productions that your kid or mine writes.
"Dear Santa! I think you are a nice man. Will you please come and see me soon and bring me a bride doll with a husband, and anything else you can spare? Thank you. (Signed) Judy."
A little boy who signed himself "Richard Dixon—your old pal" from Reading, Mich., said he had read about Santa at Santa Heim and wished he could be there "to see the tree and things."
The kid didn't explain what he would do with the bale of haw.
One little girl who signed simply "Ailetha" said that all she wanted Santa to do for her Christmas was to drop his bag of toys "this minute" and come running to help her with her homework.
One little boy named Joe said that his daddy had a stable with nothing in it. Did he want a pony? No. He wanted "a two-wheeler—also a bale of hay."
"I don't want anything else," said she.
"My dad is sick and my mother can't leave to get presidents. All I will get is from the school and the scouts and the neibors. Wish I could get more, but know you are busy," the boy wrote.
Some of the letters are a little sassy.
"This is the last letter you will resive from me if you do not leave me a doll carpet sweeper. This is final. I love you and why don't you love me?"
She wrote:
One came from a little girl in Maryland.
One little boy in Texas, who apparently had some prompting from his mother asked, please, for a "pain of pants and a washing machine—and maybe an electric iron."
Another country kid asked only for "a farm and a color book and a football and a calf—that gives milk right away."
One little girl in Arizona didn't ask for anything. All she said was that she was happy that Santa was on his way and coming soon.
"I hope you have a nice trip in the snow," she said.
Little Shirley Miller of Monrovia, Calif. wrote hopefully that Santa might get her letter. She said her daddy was sick with a heart attack and there was no money for Christmas. Shirley's been good, she said, and her mommy is lame. All she wants is a bike for herself and something for her three sisters and five brothers.
Another letter came from a nine-year-old in Toledo, Ohio. It was signed "Sunny" Lupton. The note said:
"I am 9 years old. My sister is $5\frac{1}{2}$. We held a meeting and decided we don't want any presents for Xmas. Sister did want a potty doll, but she will do without it. We want a marker for our daddy's grave. He went too heaven a few months ago and it won't be Xmas without him. He was the best daddy in the world, so please bring us a marker for him. Merry Christmas, Santa!"

Sergeant Bails Out, But Plane Is Saved
Fort Worth,—(U.P.)-S/Sgt. Lowell A. Reiff, gunner on a B-36 superbomber, came in for some practice at parachute jumping recently.
Flying at 3,000 feet. S/Sgt. Reif looked through a port of the big plane and saw that the No. 3 engine was on fire.
Engines No. 4 and 5 already were feathered, and S/Sgt. didn't wait around to ask questions.
He called a warning to his mates, dived through an escape hatch, and pulled the cord on his 'chute. He landed safely, but so did the plane.
Lt. Clifford Schoeffler, the pilot,
used an emergency fire extinguisher to put out the blaze, then started the No. 4 engine again. He landed the plane without mishap at Carswell air base in New Mexico.

Eastern Manufacturer May Offer Scholarship For Silversmithing
If you are interested in learning how to design and make jewelry, you may soon be able to obtain a scholarship for study at the University.
An Eastern manufacturer of costume jewelry became interested the past spring in granting such a scholarship after K.U. established a four-year course in the study of jewelry and silversmithing and had become the first school in the nation to offer a degree—Bachelor of Fine Arts—for the work.
A great deal of enthusiasm for the new major has been shown by students now enrolled in the course and by jewelry manufacturers who have visited the department. The course was written up in the September issue of the Mid-Continent Jeweler and has resulted in inquiries from New Jersey, New York, Colorado, and Pennsylvania.
Majors study drawing, design handicrafts, and the history and appreciation of art besides academics. Students are evaluated for graduation from the School of Fine Arts.
The course was established because the faculty felt that the jewelry and silversmithing field had been "grossly overlooked by educational institutions, and both the need and opportunity to do something existed."

Guidance Bureau Gets Equipment
Three new International Business Machines have been purchased for the Guidance Bureau announced Dr. A. H. Turney bureau director
A card punching machine and a duplicator were installed last week, and a sorter is to be delivered. The bureau is making an extensive study of over 2,500 K. U. graduates which will supply them with a very thorough analysis and much valuable information. The machines will expedite the cataloging of the many questionaires returned.
Dr. G. B. Price Addresses Mathematics Colloquium
Dr. G. B. Price, professor of mathematics, discussed the theory of series expansions, which he has developed, at the mathematics colloquium in Strong hall Monday afternoon. Approximately 50 persons heard the lecture and the discussion which followed.
The next meeting will be held on Monday, Dec. 12, when Dr. S. Chowla, professor of mathematics, will speak. Dr. Chowla will give the same address which he has been invited to present before the American Mathematics Society during the Christmas holidays.
Committee Issues Special Aviation Education Report
A special 109 page report on aviation education compiled by Dr. George B. Smith, dean of the School of Education, and five other leading educators was recently issued.
The report was prepared by the aviation education committee of the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education. It was sponsored by the U. S. department of commerce and the Civil Aeronautics administration. The committee met for five days in May at Washington D. C.
The study discusses aviation and its implications, the place of aviation in the elementary and secondary schools, and the understanding of aviation by future teachers. It includes 18 pages of bibliography and outlines of present programs in aviation education being used throughout the nation.
The committee listed five major reasons for the need of planning for aviation education in schools:
1. The increasingly large place that aviation is taking in the economic, social, and political lives of the people.
2. The wealth of valuable, and in some cases essential information materials, skills, and interests available in the field of aviation education.
3. The great variety of interests and real life materials available in the field to help the program create student interest.
4. The necessity for all teachers to be aware of the possible implications of aviation education in the learning situations of most subject-matter.
5. The excellent aviation educational work that the aviation education division of the Civil Aeronautics administration is doing through its program of workshops, consultants, institutes, and preparation of curriculum materials.
The committee feels that the implication of aviation on our civilization is not yet fully felt. It has recommended the continuing study to develop the field for the nation's schools.
Outlines of the teacher training programs are contained in the booklet to help colleges develop the program.

The Editorial Page-
Take Cheer, Republicans
Quite a lot more interest has been taken in the assembling of the Young Republicans of Kansas last week. Part of this may have been caused by the sudden competition for the chairmanship of the Young Republicans; the rest might be attributed to the promise of some fireworks through the desire of the group to write a new party platform—whether the oldsters like it or not.
It seems that some of the more ardent Young Republicans in the state have decided that losing every election is not necessary, and that they can do something about it. It is true that for too many years the Kansas section of the Republican party has been dominated by a group of elders growing older and older. But now time has caught up with them in the form of death and inactivity, and too many second-raters have risen to the top because the younger men have been put down.
So perhaps it's a good thing for the "youngsters" to rant and rave, or even riot a little, if they can put new life and new faces into the party.
That word is security. It is manifested in almost every phase of "the American way of life."
After all, the Republicans have some cause to be hopeful . . .
not all of F.D.R.'s reforms have stuck—we've gone back to the
one-Thanksgiving-day-a-year standard-Norma Hunsinger
America's Security
There is a word which ever since FDR's first term has become increasingly popular with all those who attempt to explain the social, governmental, and economic activities of America.
Heretofore this manifestation has been of a latent nature, it has not been directly expressed in so many words. It took some reasoning to perceive that all of our actions were basically directed towards achieving security.
But now the idea has found a direct expression—it is the primary motivation of our present administration. And it goes by the name of the "welfare state."
Upon first thought the idea of security does not seem so bad as all this. And it would not be if it were used in the strict dictionary sense; that is, "security—a feeling of safety or certainty or a freedom from anxiety or doubt." But as it is now used it means that the spirit of self-reliance, the use of initiative, the belief in free-enterprise is departing from the people.
As James F. Byrnes, once an ardent New Dealer, recently said, the present concept of security means that "too many people want to lean upon the government, forgetting that the government must lean upon the people. Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity. They seem more afraid of life than death."
Twentieth-century man is afraid to rely upon himself to provide for his own security. But that is not the principle that this country was founded upon. Those who settled this country did not come here to establish a government. They were seeking liberty, not security. They were seeking an opportunity to enjoy freedom, the freedom of being let alone.
While present day man seeks a security founded upon someone else he is also seeking progress. And herein lies a conflict. Progress cannot be had without venturing out into the unknown and untried. And doing this means the loss, temporarily at least, of security. You cannot have both at once.
What is the result of this desire of security? It is an ever expanding government, a concentration in Washington of the powers of local governments, and the imposition of creeping, but ever advancing, socialistic programs. It is the "welfare state."
For a government to provide security to its citizens means the spending of much money. It means that the government will spend more than it takes in.
Again we turn to Mr. Byrnes who said, with this going on "what a heritage we will bequeath to the children of this day! Our greed for welfare and security will deny to them the opportunities we enjoy. Instead of fighting freely for the future of their children, they will be forced to pay for the folly of their fathers." Nelson Ober
- Letters To The Editor -
False Gods
Dear Sir:
I have read the pamphlet which the department of speech and drama distributed about the next play From what I can get from it, and from talking to a member of the cast, the play is one which promotes atheism. Why are plays on personal religious questions permitted to be given here at the University? What we believe is not the business of this department. There are plenty of plays they could give which would not tend to undermine the faith of the student who believes in God. And if they think they have to give a play like this, why do they give it just before the
anniversary of the birth of Jesus?
Do they want to spoil our Christmas?
Or just what is their idea?
I think the Christian students on the campus should boycott this play.
(Name withheld by request)
Dear Sir:
After reading the publicity about "False Gods", being "one of those who have wondered about religion," I have been interested. I understand this play takes the Catholic church apart and does a good job on the Protestants too. I can see why this play has never been produced in the professional theater and has appeared in only two colleges in the country.
Heat Is Next Obstacle Facing High Speed Flights
Moffet Field, Calif.—(U.P.)—Man will never fly faster than light, which is 670,000,000 miles per hour, but that's about the only barrier aeronautical engineers will admit is insurmountable.
According to Dr. Albert Einstein, at the speed of light size is reduced to zero and mass is increased to infinity.
Scientists at the Ames laboratory of the National Advisory committee for aeronautics won't argue with Dr. Einstein, but they also refuse to admit anything short of that speed is impossible.
There is a formidable barrier, however, they say, much closer to the speeds man has flown since the Bell X-1 broke through the speed of sound at Muroc Dry Lake.
The next obstacle, according to the Ames scientists, is heat.
It's apt to be a tough nut to crack too, because the heat is generated rapidly as speed is increased above that of sound. All of the vitals of the plane must be refrigerated and even then the basic metal structure is weakened by the heat.
The Ames scientists, who shudder at the idea of being quoted directly, refuse to divulge the speed at which the beat problem stops them. That is a closely guarded secret.
Suffice to say it is apparently somewhere beyond 1,000 miles per hour.
That figure can be deduced from a recent prediction by John F. Victory, executive secretary of the N.A.C.A., who said:
" . . . the day when military aircraft can make sustained flights of 1,000 miles per hour or more is not far distant."
Ames engineers say the increase in heat due to the compression of air ahead of the plane is about 100 degreesfahrenheit at the speed of sound. (760 miles per hour at sea level.) The temperature rise occurs at the nose of the plane and the heat elsewhere, because of friction of the boundary layer air on the skin of the plane, is only a few degrees less.
Beyond the speed of sound the temperature rises rapidly.
Just how great that temperature can become was made clear by one
I want to congratulate the University Players for having the "guts" to give this play and call a spade a spade. If a University is a place for free discussion on any subject, then K. U. is fulfilling its educational function of permitting such a sensational play to be given on our campus.
Richard Rowe College senior
of the laboratory scientists who explained:
"A shooting star is just a piece of iron being burned up by its speed through the earth's atmosphere."
One of the solutions has been to fly at higher altitudes where the air is colder, but the engineers say there is a limit to this practice because in the rare upper air the sun's rays have a greater heating effect.
Refrigeration has been another partial solution, but it does not solve the problem because it is impossible to refrigerate the entire airplane and there is a limit to the amount the temperature can be dropped.
Only one thing is certain, the absolute speed limit is somewhere between 1.000 miles per hour and 670,000,000 miles per hour. It's probably much nearer the lower figure.
Fire Belles Raise Funds
Duluth, Minn. — (U.P.) In Canosla township the men fight the fires and the women raise the money. Fifty women have formed an auxiliary to the volunteer fire department to raise funds for fire-fighting equipment. They call themselves "The Fire Belles."

Persons Made Homeless In 1866 Entered KU Free
Soldiers, orphans and young persons made homeless by Quantrill's raid were admitted without charge to the University of Kansas in 1866, the first published catalog of the University states. 1866 there were 26 "ladies" and
In 1800, there were 29 "gentlemen" enrolled in K.U.
The University had one building, old North College, which stood where Corbin hall is now located.
The catalog description was: "The University of Kansas is located in the City of Lawrence, in the midst of a rich and beautiful country. The University building is one of the finest structures in the state. It has three stories, with wide halls and high, airy rooms. The rooms are well finished, and furnished with the most approved apparatus of the classroom. Neatness, taste, and comfort characterize everything about the premises."
Some of the following rules enforced at that time would be difficult to enforce today.
"For every instance of absence, tardiness, or failure in recitation, a satisfactory excuse must be rendered to the proper officers.
Every student is required to be in his or her place at all stated exercises, from the beginning to the end of his or her connection with the university.
"All unexcused 'delinquencies shall be noted, and when the
number exceeds 10, the student ceases to be a member of the university.
"Students must not absent themselves from town without permission from the president."
The tuition was $30 a year, and the matriculation fee was $5. Children of clergymen were required to pay only half the费.
Candidates for admission to the college had to be at least 14-years old, and had to present satisfactory evidence of a good moral character
The courses offered at that time were: ancient and modern geography, English grammar, physiology, arithmetic, algebra, calculus, U.S. history, French history, Latin, French, and Greek, Greek was highly recommended to the young ladies particularly.

Wallace Cleared Uranium Supply Lewis Charges
Washington, Dec. 7—(U.P.) The house un-American activities committee today summoned Lt. Gen. Leslie R. Groves, the nation's wartime atomic chief, before them to find out if Henry Wallace or anyone else overruled his ban on atomic shipments to Russia.
The group is investigating a charge by radio commentator Fulton Lewis, Jr., that, despite Mr. Groves' ban, Mr. Wallace cleared 1,000 pounds of uranium, bought in Canada, for shipment to Russia over the Alaska lend-lease supply route.
Mr. Wallace, former vice president who ran for president in 1948 on the ticket of the leftist Progressive party, has denied Mr. Lewis' charge as "sheer fabrication." He has asked and received—a promise from the testify publicly.
George Racey Jordon, a former army air force major at the Great Falls, Mont., depot, also linked the late presidential adviser, Harry Hopkins, to the atomic shipments.
Col. Russell Meredith, retired, a former commandant of the Great Falls air base, corroborated Mr. Jordan's claim that the Russians sneaked uranium and other U.S. secrets through the lend-lease pipeline.
In a radio interview over the mutual network with Mr. Lewis assistant, C. Russell Turner, Jr., Mr Meredith said that 10 tons a month of secret U.S. scientific and industrial data passed through Great Falls en route to Alaska and Siberia.
The material, he said, included "everything the Russians could lay their hands on concerning American industries, locations, plans, mechanical designs, scientific data of all kinds."
Committee members said they hope to learn from Mr. Groves just who authorized the atomic shipments and if the material was helpful to the Russians in their successful efforts to develop their own A-bomb.
Mr. Groves testified in secret yesterday before the staff of the joint congressional atomic energy committee. Committee chairman Brian McMahon, D., Conn., said only that the investigation was "proceeding satisfactorily."
The general made two appearances before the house committee the past year on Russian atomic espionage. On each occasion, he refused to go into detail on grounds that, as a reserve officer, he still is bound by a White House ban on releasing confidential material.
But from the state department and other sources, it was learned that the Russians in March, 1943, obtained official permission to ship 420 pounds of uranium compounds to Siberia. Too late to stop this shipment, Mr. Groves imposed his ban on all future atomic exports.
It was then that the Russians turned to Canada for the 1,000 pounds of uranium compounds, which—with someone's approval—they were able to fly to Siberia over the lend-lease supply route.
The Russians later managed to obtain some uranium metal. There are reports it may have been doctored to make it useless in atomic research.
Alpha Delta Pi's Rebuild Sidewalk
New cement sidewalks are being laid on the Louisiana and 12th street sides of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority house. Work is being done by the M. N. Penny Construction Company and is being paid for by the sorority's house corporation.
The city has agreed to repair the intersection of the old sidewalks and the steps to the streets, which are outside the sorority's property line. Providing the weather is favorable, the repair work should be finished within a week, Rav Roberts. Lawrence manager of Fraternity Management Inc., said.

Vote Shows Serenades To End
Inter-fraternity council members voted Monday night to discontinue fraternity and sorority serenades.
Problems encountered during Rush week were also discussed during the meeting. Jan. 14 was set as the date for the annual Inter-fraternity council formal party.
The vote was not a formal rejection of serenades, but a sampling of opinion among members.
Robert M. Petitt, president, and Dale Helmers, vice-president, made a report of activities at the national event last week, during the Thanksgiving vacation.

Yankees Form New KU Club
The Northeast States club has been organized by Richard Miner, engineering freshman, to boost the University of Kansas in 10 northeastern states.
The group is a result of the recent Statewide Activities convocation The group met Sunday in the East room of the Union with 21 members attending.
They will meet again at 3 p.m. Sunday in the East room of the Union.
A dinner has been planned for Friday, Jan. 13, in the Kansas room of the Union. As yet the plans are incomplete.
As part of the "Boost K.U." movement, the club is planning to attend the basketball game between the University of Kansas and Springfield college to be held at Springfield, Mass., Dec. 23.
The group is anxious to contact all students from that area who may be able to attend the game. They hope to have a large group of Jayhawkers on hand to boost the K.U. team.
All who are interested should phone Joseph Olenchalk, education freshman, at 1361W.
Students in the Northeast States club are from the following states; Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
Malotts Lose Day In World Flight
Wednesday will not exist for Chancellor and Mrs. Deane W. Maltott as they fly westward to India to attend an unofficial Indian-American Relations conference.
The Malotis will leave Honolulu at 11:30 a.m. today, Hawaiian time, or 4:30 p.m. central standard time. They will arrive in Tokyo at 12:30 a.m. Thursday by Japanese time or 9:30 p.m. Wednesday by central standard time.
Newly Developed Electron Microscope Will Be Used To Study Kansas Clays
The lost day will be picked up as the Malotts cover the last half of their trip around the world.
"Many properties of clays that cannot be detected by X-rays or by ordinary microscopes can be determined by this instrument," said Ada Swineford, geologist of the state geological survey.
The electron microscope, latest major research tool in ceramics studies, will soon be used by ceramists of the state geological survey to examine the particles which make up the commercial clays of Kansas.
Miss Swineford recently returned from Pennsylvania State college where she did research work with the electron microscope. She said that the information acquired by observing Kansas clays under the electron microscope will speed the determination of commercial uses for the claws.
"In order to see the particles, it is necessary to prepare a dilute suspension of clay in water, Miss Swineford explained. A drop of the suspension is allowed to dry on a thin film of plastic mounted on a tiny metal screen.
"This screen is then placed in the electron microscope and the air is pumped out. A beam of electrons is aimed at the sample, and the clay particles appear as shadows visible when projected on a special viewing screen within the microscope.
"This image may be photographed by a special camera that is built into the apparatus."
The study of clay particles, magnified 50,000 times or more, will enable the state geological survey to identify the clay minerals. They will also be able to measure the amount of surface area and from this determine the absorptive capacity of the clays. From this information may come other useful facts of commercial value.
Russia Didn't Get Bomb Data. Materials In '43
Washington, Dec. 7—(U.P.)-Whatever Russia got from the United States in the spring of 1943, it was not information on how to make an A-bomb or materials with which to do it.
The house unAmerican activities committee has produced evidence that Russia, a wartime ally, flew 1,420 pounds of uranium compound out of this country by way of the Great Falls, Mont., lend-lease depot in March-April, 1943.
But the official Smyth report on the U.S. atomic project shows that this country was not producing atomic explosives, except on an infinitesimal laboratory scale, until 1944.
It was not until the spring of 1943 that the U.S. bomb science laboratory was set up at Los Alamos, N.M., and it was not until the summer of 1945 that the first atomic bomb was put together there.
Although the basic scientific knowledge involved in the bomb had been known to the war since 1939, the detailed data essential for actual production had not been amassed when the Russians got their shipments of uranium oxide and uranium nitrate.
The Russians said they wanted the material for medical and metallurgical purposes. Whatever their real reason may have been, here is what the Smyth report says on the status of U.S. atomic knowledge at that time:
"In April, 1943, the available information of interest in connection with the design of atomic bombs was preliminary and inaccurate. Further and extensive theoretical work on critical size (of the bomb's explosive material), efficiency, effect of tamper, method of detonation, and effectiveness was urgently needed.
"Besides problems in theoretical and experimental physics there was a host of chemical, metallurgical and technical problems that had hardly been touched. Examples were the purification and fabrication of U-235 and plutonium, and the fabrication of the tamper.
"Finally, there were problems of instantaneous assembly of the bomb that were staggering in their complexity."
Actual U.S. production of atomic explosives did not get under way on a large scale until 1944. It reached its wartime peak in 1945.
But enough had been learned befort the spring of 1943 to give assurance that an A-bomb was possible.
This country experimented extensively with heavy water as a "moderator" to slow down neutrons in an atomic pile to the speed at which they were most effective in colliding T-235 and setting up a chain reaction.
Two German physicists split the U-235 atom in late 1938 and published their findings in January. 1939.
By 1939 nuclear physicists everywhere knew it was possible to split the U-235 atom with a release of 200,000,000 electron volts of energy.
An international group of physicists that year tried to stop publication of further data about it. But F. Joliot-Curie, the top French physicist and a Communist, refused to go along and the big secret was out.
Among the materials Russia is said to have received from this country was heavy water-water made with the so-called heavy isotope of hydrogen.
Because of the difficulty of manufacturing heavy water, this country decided to use graphite instead. The Germans, having access to large sums of heavy water from Norway, went ahead with it, but they made little progress with their atomic project.
It was in the spring of 1943, the year Russia got its samples, that this country strenned un research with heavy water as a moderator. In July 1944, it out in operation small heavy water pile at Argonne Ill.

STUDENT NEWSPAPER
Oak Ridge, Tenn., Dec. 8—(U.P.) Construction workers of all trades returned to work today, apparently ending a three-day "wildcat" strike which had idled 2,750 men and halted a multi-million-dollar expansion program at this atomic center.
Atomic Strikers Return To Work After Three Days
An official of the Maxon Construction company, which is building two new uranium-235 production plants which had been closed by the strike, said every craft at work before the walkoff was represented today. C. A. Budnik, supervising engineer for Maxon, said a check of gates to the "secret" controlled production area was being made to determine the exact number of returned workers. Some workers, he said, apparently hadn't received word that Union officials had voted a back-to-work movement.
Business agents of the 10 A.F.L. craft unions involved in the walk-out, meeting with Federal Conciliator E. E. Hitchcock, voted last night "to make every effort to persuade" their members to go back to work.
The apparent break in the work stoppage, which crippled all new construction here came a short time after the Atomic Energy Commission's standing labor panel stepped into the dispute. Apparently the panel's offer to confer "in the very near future" with the unions regarding the basic issues of the walkout satisfied the union representatives and brought about a settlement formula.
A spokesman for the panel in New York said last night that it had received assurances from the unions involved that their members would be back at work today.
For a time Wednesday, it was expected that the contractors involved would file charges that the strikers were conducting a secondary boycott, opening the way for possible use of a Taft-taylor law back-to-work injunction.
But representatives of the National Labor Relations Board withrew from the talks late yesterday, indicating that the contractors had decided against filing such charges. It appeared that federal conciliators had urged the contractors to rely on "persuasion" methods to get the strikers back on the job.
ROTC Names Six For Commissions
Six advanced R.O.T.C. students of the University have been named to receive commissions in the regular army, Col. Edward R. Kumpe, professor of military science, said today.
Previously designated as distinguished military students by Chancellor Deane W. Malot, the six students were selected from more than 1,400 distinguished military students from R.O.T.C. units throughout the country.
Notified in an announcement from the department of the army in Washington, D.C., the students will be commissioned as second lieutenants on June 15.1950.
The six R.O.T.C. students to receive the commissions are Robert C Bransfield, engineering senior; George B. Harvey, Jr., business senior; Ralph G. Henley, College and law freshman; Robert E. Kroesch, graduate student; George B. Skinner, engineering senior; and Myron M. Thomason, College senior.
Ticket Deadline Is 5 p.m. Saturday
Students must select their basketball tickets by 5 p.m. Saturday or miss their allotment of home games, Earl Falkenstien, athletic business manager, announced today.
As has been the procedure for several past seasons, students may make a selection of two sets of tickets which will enable them to see half of the eight home games.
No extra charge is made for the tickets.
Mr. Falkenstien said that the student demand for tickets has been light to date and if it is not sufficient to fill Hoch auditorium tickets will be offered to the general public.
Music Clinic Begins Today
Registration began at noon today for students and teachers attending the fifth annual Midwestern Music clinic. Sponsored by the Schools of Fine arts and education, and University Extension, the clinic will be assisted in session until noon Saturday.
Directors of the clinic. E. Thayer Gaston, professor of education, and Russell L. Wiley, professor of band and orchestra, have arranged a full program for the musicians who are attending the clinic. Hourly sessions have been planned, ranging from exhibitions of the University Symphony orchestra to instruction by members of the University faculty in strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion instruments.
An international dinner will be served at 5:30 p.m. today in the Palm room of the Union. Indian dancers from Haskell institute and square dancers from University High school will perform.
At 8:30 p.m. today clinic enrollees may attend the concert by Clifford Curzon, noted English pianist, in Hoch auditorium, by paying only the tax on the complimentary tickets which they have been given.
During the course of the clinic, the new psychology of music laboratory will be open for inspection. An assistant will be on hand to explain the devices which are now being used in this work. Films and audiovisual aids to music instruction will be exhibited in 15 Fraser hall.
The American people may see the time when the rank and file of the people will take the conduct of foreign policy out of the hands of the professional diplomats. said George V. Allen, ambassador to Yugoslavia.
Diplomat Talks To Commission
Mr. Allen spoke at the third annual conference of the Kansas commission for U.N.E.S.C.O. in Wichita Dec. 2. He urged that the individual think of himself as a citizen of an international community.
"This does not make you any less a good American or Kansan," he said. "The Kansas commission has shown how the individual can contribute to world understanding."
The first in a series of parliamentary procedure practice sessions will begin at 7:15 p.m. today in 106 Green hall.
Law Procedure Meeting Tonight
Preparation is the secret to success in winning a law case, Charles S. Rhyne, general counsel of the National Institute of Municipal Law Officers, told students Wednesday at a School of Law convocation.
Preparation Key To Law Success, Rhyne Says
All University students are eligible to attend the meetings, which are sponsored by the Forensic league and directed by Richard Schleifbusch, assistant professor of speech.
"A lawyer will run into cases that he knows nothing about," Mr. Rhyne said, "but he can win the case on prepartion. I think the secret to success in law, particularly administrative law is to prepare, prepare, and prepare."
Mr. Rhyne, who instructs law courses at George Washington university, outlined briefly three fields of law: aviation, international, and administrative. He pointed out the present opportunities in each field. All are "growing" fields, he said.
Mr. Rhyne's home office is in Washington, D.C. He came to the University from Kansas City, Mo., where he attended the 14th annual conference of the National Institute of Municipal Law Officers, Monday through Wednesday.
Stanford Teacher At KU Next Week
The National Institute of Municipal Law Officers organization was explained by Mr. Rhyne. "It is an organization made up of 550 cities. The cities participate in the relief purpose is to collect, exchange, and distribute information and ideas on what various cities do in administration."
F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law, introduced Mr. Rhyne. The convocation was in the library of Green hall.
Appearing in the third of this year's series of Humanities lectures B. Q. Morgan, professor of German at Stanford university, will speak on "Goethe Today and Tomorrow" at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 13, in Fraser theater.
Professor Morgan will be on the campus Monday, Dec 12, Tuesday, Dec 13, and Wednesday, Dec 14.
Duties Of Clubs To Be Explained
A meeting of all county newspaper correspondents will be held at 4 p.m. today in 200 Strong hall. Faye Wilkinson, College junior and chairman of correspondents, said that the meeting is to explain the duties of participating students, and to get the program started.
The group will be instructed by Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni association; Tom Voe, director of public relations; Emil L Telfel, assistant professor of journalism, and Raymond Nichols, executive secretary.
Simmons Named Rhodes Finalist
Ralph Simmons, College senior, end Norman Collins, Kansas State college student were nominated for Rhodes scholarship district competition to be held in Des Moines, Iowa, on Saturday.
The Kansas committee nominated the two students from 16 candidates in Kansas educational institutions, Dr. W. E. Sandellus, professor of political science, said Wednesday.
The district competition for Khodes scholarships includes candidates from Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, and South Dakota.
The Kansas committee for Rhodes scholarships consists of Professor Sandelius, Milton Eisenhower, president of Kansas State college; Emory Lindquist, president of Bethany college; and W.D.P. Carey, Hutchinson attorney.
A Rhodes scholarship consists of three years of graduate work, two of which must be at Oxford university in England, and the third year anywhere outside the U.S. The yearly stipend is 500 pounds $1,400 American at the devalued exchange rate.
WEATHER
Kansas—The forecast for Friday is mostly cloudy with occasional rain and somewhat warmer. Temperatures which were today under the 40-degree mark in most of the state are predicted to range from 29 to 25 degrees tonight.

Lawrence firemen extended their aerial ladder equipment to its full length of 100 feet for the first time Wednesday night in fighting a $3,500 blaze in the tower of Dyche hall. The fire, which damaged specimen boxes and skeletons of small animals stored in the tower, was brought under control quickly by the firemen.
$3,500 Damage Done To Supplies In Dyche Fire
Fire caused an estimated $3,500 damage to museum supplies in the tower room of Dyche hall Wednesday night before firemen could push their way through stacked boxes of bones to extinguish the blaze.
Damage to the building, however, has not been estimated. Paul Ingels, Lawrence fire chief, said the ceiling and walls were damaged in the top tower room.
The loss was mostly in supplies consisting of specimen boxes, E. R. Hall, director of the Museum of Natural History, explained.
Two manuscripts for doctor's thesis might have been destroyed if firemen had been unable to quickly get the blaze under control. The thesis manuscripts had been left in a room beneath the scene of the fire by John White and Lendell Cockrum, assistant instructors in zoology. Both manuscripts were found undamaged.
The fire was discovered by John A. White, assistant instructor in zoology, at 9:30 p.m. He was working in his office directly underneath the tower room. Mr. White heard a crackling noise in the tower which he thought was caused by bats. Investigating the noise, he discovered smoke coming from the room and immediately notified the fire department.
In 1932 Dyche hall was declared unsafe by the state fire marshal and was closed for eight years. It was reopened in 1941 after changes were made to meet safety requirements.
All Lawrence fire-fighting units responded to the call except one pump truck held on emergency reserve. The aerial-ladder truck, with its 100-foot ladder extending to the top of the tower, was used in fighting the blaze.
Speculation centered on the temporary flood lights as a possible cause of the fire. The red, blue, and amber lights were installed recently as part of campus Christmas decorations. The fire was put out by fogmist made by water under high pressure. A special nozzle was used
Firemen said that during the fire, members of the museum staff were in the smoke-filled room pleading with them not to throw out valuable skeletons and specimens. Several hundred students gathered in the street to watch the firemen fight the blaze.
Explaining why they delayed breaking the windows, firemen said that a supply of water was not immediately available. If the windows were broken a draft might have fanned the flames and caused greater damage.
Mr. Ingels was grateful for help from bystanders who assisted firemen with the hose in the early part of the fire. "I want to thank all students and museum staff members who helped with the hose equipment," he said.
ASME To Hold Banquet Today
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers will present its annual banquet in the Kansas room of the Union at 6:30 p.m. today.
The Kansas State chapter and two chanters from Kansas City, Mo, will be guests of the K.U. organization. Dr. R. C. Moore, director of research of the geology survey, will speak about his recent research at a meeting over months there as an advisor to General Douglas MacArthur.
The Sigma Chi quartet, and John M. Suptic, assistant instructor of mechanical engineering will entertain. Suptic will play the plano.

Ward To Leave Tienstin, China Next Weekend
Abcard Joplin Victory, Taku Bar,
Tientsin, China, Dec. 8- (U.P.)-Consul
General Angus Ward and his staff from the Mukden consulate will board an American freighter in this windswept roadstead next weekend for their long-delayed trip home from Communist China.
Ward and his staff—a group of 20 in all—are expected to be taken aboard the American freighter Lakeland Victory, chartered in Japan to rescue the Americans from behind the Chinese Communist iron curtain. Ward and his group were to leave Mukden Tuesday afternoon for Tientsin.
It was presumed that the group already has started the 700-mile trip to Tientsin. They are expected to arrive Thursday or Friday. Ward and his staff will board ship at Taku Bar, the sea exit from Tientsin, which is 35 miles up the shallow Hai river.
Taku Bar has no harbor. Ships must stand out 10 miles or more to be loaded by barge. Passengers from Tientsin must make an hour's trip by train to the village of Tangku on the Hai river and then travel four hours by tugboat to reach their ship.

Traffic Fines Seem Not Too High But Extras Raise Amount To Pay
Washington—(U.P.)—One never knows the amount of bookkeeping involved in a traffic fine until he looks into it. Take the case of John C. Robinson, Fort Lauderdale, Fla., who was arrested in Williamston, N.C.
According to the report Mr. Robinson made to the American Automobile Association here, he was zipping along at 65 miles an hour. The speed limit on the highway in North Carolina is 55 M.P.H.
The driver said he was both wrong and sorry. The judge said he was sorry, too, but the damage was $15-plus. It was the plus that floored Mr. Robinson. He forwarded the work-sheet, or the breakdown, to the A.A.A. The A.A.A. was helpless, but interested.
Here is the official bill of fine and costs in the case; Affidavit, 25 cents; bill of cost, preparing, 25 cents; docketing warrant, 25 cents; docketing judgment, 25 cents; filing papers, 10 cents; indexing judgment, 10 cents; indictment each, filing, 60 cents; judgement, $1; order arrest, $1; recording, 75 cents; fine defendant, $1; recorder's fee, $6; solicitor, $8; county tax jury findings, $2; state witness, $1.50. The total bill mounted to $37.05.
Mr. Robinson learned a lesson which he put down as "don't speed unless you have your lawyer and bookkeeper along."
For instance, there was no charge for "recognizance," which would have run the bill up another 25 cents. The court let him off on the "seal of office," which would have meant 25 cents.
Other serious fees he escaped were; presentment, 10 cents; subpoena, 15 cents; order, interlocutory, 25 cents; original process, $1; appeal from justice of peace, 50 cents; capias, $1; continuance, 30 cents;
The A.A.A. says the same situation exists in a lot of states. But it adds that Mr. Robinson probably got off pretty easy at that. And he would work on his worksheet, he could have had the whole book pitched at him.
Keene, N. H. — (U.P) — A public meeting was called to consider conditions at Keene Teachers college here.
Public Meeting Is Big Help
The group wound up donating $20 to the state toward the cost of repainting a sign outside the institu-
tion.

KFKU Listeners Now May Enjoy Weekly Half-Hour At The Opera
Phone 548
735 Mass.
Radio station KFKU has begun a series of programs, "The Opera Box," on which operas are presented in serial form, every Friday at 9:30 p.m. The program is designed to give listeners the impression of actually being at the Metropolitan for the opera, by having the announcer act as host to the listeners' theater party. He describes the scene as it unfolds from the entrance to the lobby until the opera begins. The listener theoretically has a season ticket to a box.
When the maestro enters the pit, the announcer turns the program over to the commentator who sets the stage for the various selections and arias. At the end of a scene there is an intermission, which is carried over to the next week.
The sound effects of applause, bravos, and glasses clinking in Sherry's buffet, are handled by the engineer, who also sees that the
records are played on time in correct order. On the average, it takes a month to present one complete opera.
The impression of reality seems to be effective and should make the opera more enjoyable to the average listener.
According to law, a minimum of three persons can create a riot.

hristians, Pagans Give Christmas Customs
Christmas customs of today originated not only in early Christian times but also from early pagan seasonal and religious rites and ivals.
the most important factor of istmas, the date of Christ's birth,
never been settled beyond
bt. The date Dec. 25 was set
340 A.D. as the date of the wi-
nsolstice, or longest night of the
in the northern hemisphere early peoples, both pagan and istian, this meant "the return of it." Calendar changes have acented for the difference today in dates of Christmas and the solstice. Dec. 21.
o many peoples of the world
estimas wouldn't be Christmas
about a tree. Yet this is a com-
atively new custom, said to have
ginsay in Germany in the eighth
tury when a fir tree was decorated in memory of the Christ child.
Apparently it was Martin Luther, leader of the German reformation, who introduced the use of candles, symbolizing the return of light, which itself stemmed from even earlier pagan sun worship.
From Germany the tree traveled to England with Queen Victoria's husband, Sir Albert, and German immigrants brought the custom to America.
Christmas carols and Nativity scenes were both introduced to the world by Italy in the 13th century. Francis of Assisi, an Italian friar who founded the order of Franciscans, started both customs in an effort to make Christmas more real and more understandable to the lower classes.

SPOTLIGHT SPORTS
By RICHARD DILSAVER
Found today while browsing through student papers from other Big Seven schools:
The Daily Nebraskan, commonly called the "Rag" at Lincoln, is currently wearing the reddest face in the circuit. The Rag sports department recently picked an All-Big Seven football squad and named Tom Southard, Iowa State tackle, to a second team berth.
All well and good—except for the fact that Southard didn't play a single minute this season. After completing the 1948 grid year as a standout performer, the husky Cyclone was kayed by a knee injury before the past season got under way.
While Oklahoma is getting ready for the Sugar bowl trip, the Sooner grid team has suddenly been pushed out of the limelight. It seems as though the "Pride of Oklahoma" the school's marching band, will be outfitted with 150 new and much-needed uniforms just in time to wear them to New Orleans. Now the athletic department comes along and tells the band it can't make the trip because of "high costs."
To add insult to injury, the department has arranged for a Texas band to sub for the Sooner musicians. Don't think that hasn't infuriated the O.U. student body.
Just as Kansas did two years ago when nobody wanted to foot the bill for the K.U. band's trip to Miami, the Oklahomaans are starting a campaign for contributions. The Oklahoma Daily says $15,000 are needed.
It being that we personally are a staunch supporter of bands at football games, despite what Mr. Petrillo does, they don't need quite so much now. We just sent a dollar to put in the kitty. That will leave a mere $14,999 to go.
While on the subject of the Sugar bowl, V. L. L. Nicholson, sports columnist for the Kansas State College, notes that L.S.U. has expressed "complete confidence" in its ability to beat Oklahoma. Says V. L.: "Confidence is a fine thing to have along when you enter a football game, but that Oklahoma line with Royal, Thomas Pearson, and Heath behind it is a lot better."
Another of Nicholson's articles looks back on the 1949 K-State football season. After patting various Wildcat stars on their respective backs, the story states that "only twice was this team beaten badly and only once did they look bad." Our only comment is that we're still mighty happy that we passed up pheasant season to stay in Lawrence and watch the "Cow" college team drop a 38 to 0 loss to the Jayhawkers.
A look at the roster of candidates for the University of Colorado freshman cage squad disclosures that 10 of the 17 youngsters are out-of-state lads. Included are Jim Tillsley of Kansas City, Mo., and John Welker of Concordia, Kan.

The riot amongst students, players, and fans following the recent Colorado-Colorado A&M. fracas (won 14 to 7 by the Aggies) has moved student councils at the rival schools into action. They'll meet this winter to draw up peace pacts.
Man Arrested For Drinking Bay Rum In Wichita
Wichita (U.P.)—For the first time since liquor was repealed in Kansas last spring, a man was arrested here for getting drunk on bay rum.
Police said drinking bay rum was a common occurrence when prohibition was in force in the state.

Minute Men Defeat AIEE In Good Last Half Attack
The Minute Men team won its second victory of the season in the independent "A" league and Gispak and Beta Theta Pi registered their second victories without a loss in fraternity "C" play, to feature a six game intramural basketball schedule.
Other winners Wednesday were: Cellar Dwellers and Delta Chi in the fraternity "C" league, and the Fat Men if independent "A."
A. I.E.E. went completely cold in the second half to lose to the Minute Men, 29 to 18. The engineers led 14 to 13 at halftime, but could score only a field goal and two free throws in the last half. Dale Owings and Bob Bodmer led the M-Men scoring with 11 and 10 points respectively. Bob Murrell scored eight for A.I.E.E.
The Fat Men won a forfeit from the Newman club as only four Newman players showed up for the game.
Gispak edged the Fiji's 25 to 24 to win a fraternity "C" game. The game was close all the way, with the winners holding a three point lead at halftime. Bob Bradstreet hit six field baskets and a free throw to take game scoring honors for the Fiji's with 13 points.
The Cellar Dwellers built up an 18 to 7 halftime lead and then had to fight off a Lambda Chi Alpha second half rally to win 26 to 20. Bob Seaman led the C. Dwellers with 10 points. Dean Luthey scored eight points for Lambda Chi.
Deita Chi downed Alpha Tau Omega 19 to 17 in a closely fought game. The winners maintained a two point halftime lead all the way. They were closely pressed but never trailed. Jim Wheat of Delta Chi took game scoring honors with eight points.
Beta Theta Pi won its second "C" league game of the season in downing Phi Delta Thita, 30 to 22. It was the first loss for Phi Delt.

Louis Wins;
But Undecided
About Title Go
Chicago, Dec. 8—U(P)—Jolting Joe Louis, still carrying a killer punch in either hand, turned coy today about any effort to regain the heavyweight championship he abandoned a year ago because of advancing age.
"I've still got two exhibitions in this country, and my manager has booked me for 10 four-round exhibitions in South America. I'm going down there in February."
Despite a nifty eight-round knock-out victory over Pat Valentino last night in a scheduled 10-round exhibition bout with 10-ounce gloves, Louis said "I haven't changed my mind yet" about coming back to the prize ring for another tremendous title payoff.
"I really don't know what I'm gonna do," he said in the dressing room after he belted Valentino cold with one slashing burst. He had nearly cut his challenger to ribbons in seven previous rounds.
By ED SAINSBURY
It was more than an exhibition which Louis put on against Valentino. He went into the ring admitting that he was going to try for a kayo over Valentina as quickly as possible.
If he did better against the San Francisco 185-pounder than heavy-weight champion Ezzard Charles did in a title fight last September, there was the clear-cut intimation that he would consider strongly the idea of returning to combat.
In one way, Louis did better. He outpointed Valentino all the way, bloodying the westener's left eye in his mouth and putting him in the fifth and his nose in the sixth.
Charles, on the other hand, was outpointed by Valentino for seven rounds.
But the champion kayeed the mophaired challenger at 30 seconds in the eighth round, while Louis took the eight to score the same result.
First Louis staggered Valentino with a hard right, then he cornered him again, set him up with a sharp left, and drove him clear through the ropes with a short right. Valentino hardly quivered as he lay on the ring apron for a 10 count.
Champion Charles, who won the title by beating Jersey Joe Walcott after Louis' retirement, watched the bout. He said he was perfectly willing to meet the former titleholder at any time and believed him the most logical contender for his crown.
Pi Phi's And Temruth Tie In Women's IM Basketball
Two forfeits, one tie, and two one-sided contests resulted from last night's women's intramural basketball games. The women's intramural season started Tuesday.
The Corbin Jays surged on from an 11 to 8 half-time lead to defeat Miller 30 to 15 in a game demonstrating the value of a good guard section. Corbin's forwards have good teamwork, but their guards do as fine a job. Shirley Mickelson paced Corbin's scoring with 14 points. Geneva Fleshman and Frances Pence starred as forwards, also. Elsiemarie Randoll sparked their defense.
Temrith was lagging 4 to 8 at the half but came back to tie Pi Beta Phi with a final score of 19 to 19. Both teams seemed to have trouble the first half hitting the basket, but found it in the second. Good defense on both sides helped
Miller kept up with Corbin quite well in the first half, but didn't have the staying power to go on and win. Betty Clinger did well as forward and Mary Van Houten led the guards. Christine Johnson was top scorer with nine points.

Betty van der Smissen sparked the forward section for Temruth and was top scorer with nine points.
Dolores Dolson and Louise Sanborn did good defensive playing.
Peggy Baker and Margaret Foster lead Pi Phi scoring and tallied five and six points respectively.
Kappa Alpha Theta swamped Kanza 23 to 8 at the half and went on to win 34 to 10. They were just too much for the other team, although Kanza fought all the way and their forwards showed some good teamwork. Both teams displayed some good defensive work, but were "blocking" considerably and made a number of fouls.
Sydney Ashton, Anne Gage, who was top scorer with 13 points, and Barbara Quinn did well as forwards for the Pi Phi's. Shirley Wilkie paced Kanza's team and Jerry Tallison tilted eight points.

Acheson Rejects Jordan Charges
Washington, Dec. 8—(U.P.)—Secretary of State Dean Acheson threw old water Wednesday on many of he charges made by George Racey ordan, former army air force officer, concerning wartime shipments to Russia.
Acheson told a news conference he had no knowledge that any state department documents, "secret or otherwise," were made available to Russia without "proper authorization; as alleged by Mr. Jordan.
He also said that a search of lendecase files showed nothing to confirm Jorden's charges that he found J.S. Radar devices on Russian lendecase planes and ripped them out.
Jordan charges that while he was lend-lease expediter at the Great Falls, Mont., air base during the war he tore out the radar from four C-47 planes bound for Russia, but missed a fifth.
Acheson also said that the Manhattan Engineering district, army-perated A-Bomb project, approved ill licenses for wartime uranium himbents to Russia.
He said the files reveal that two export licenses were granted in March, 1943, for uranium compounds. One was for 200 pounds of uranium oxide and 220 pounds of uranium nitrate. The other was for 500 pounds of uranium oxide and 500 pounds of uranium nitrate.
He said the state department was not involved in issuance of licenses, but that it has old lend-lease records which show that several licenses were issued.
"In April of 1943 an export license for 25 pounds of uranium metal, and in November, 1943, for 1,000 grams of heavy water were granted by the board of economic warfare, which at that time was responsible for licensing United States exports." Acheson said.
He said the records give no indication of whether or not any shipments actually were made. But Lt. Jen Leslie R. Groves, head of the var-time A-bomb project, testified before the house unAmerican activities committee that the only actualhipment he knew about was the one or 260 pounds of uranium oxide and 20 pounds of uranium nitrate.
Acheson replied emphatically 'no.'
Acheson was asked whether during his government work he had any experience to lead him to believe hat the late Harry L. Hopkins, president Roosevelt's confident, elided Russia get unauthorized material.
Mehus Discusses Future Of Norway
Optimism concerning the future of Norway was expressed by Dr. O. Myking Mehus at a meeting of the Unitarian Liberal fellowship recently.
Chief of educational and vocational rehabilitation for the Veterans Administration office in Kansas City, Mo. Dr. Mehus spent the past summer in Norway visiting relatives and friends.
That the Communists were voted out of the Norwegian parliament in the election was indicative of her liberality to the people, Dr. Meus told the group.
Norway is respected by all, and cared by none," he said. "The people are 100 per cent literate. There is practically no crime, and a comparatively large per cent of the people are engaged in the field of creative arts," he concluded.
Father's Voice Aids Rescue

U.S. Knows How To Defend The Nation's Way Of Life
Men and women today have a definite idea what they would do if they had to defend their country against an aggressor, Edward R. Kumpe, professor of military science, stressed on the eighth anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Professor Kumpe recalled that "eight years ago Wednesday the news of Pearl Harbor flashed across the country on a quiet Sunday afternoon, and with it flashed the flames of war."
Nearly four years later the fighting ended with the surrender of Japan in the harbor of their greatest port, Professor Kumpe said.
"Some 10 million citizens in the army, the navy and the air forces had smashed the two most powerful military nations at the beginning of the war," he said. "This was a citizen's army force trained by the tiny percentage of officers and men we had at the beginning of the war."
"The cost was immeasurable in lives, production and wealth. It was poured out generously to defend our way of life but it could not be maintained at its peak strength. Men and women returned to their homes each with a lesson and a definite idea of what they would do should a similar effort be required again."
"The opinions of these same men now on the campus toward any future war are illuminating. Men without military training were assigned where they were needed and only in part according to their desires and civil training. There is no reason to believe that such will not be the case in future conflict. The needs of war do not match the needs of peace in skills or in production.
"These same men have chosen to shape their own future if and when the next war comes. The chancellor has secured training units of the army, the navy and the air forces here on the campus and these men have enrolled to secure for themselves a choice of assignment in a leadership that will best fit their qualification. The omic assistance at $27 a month provided during their last two years in school is entirely secondary to their determination to choose their assignment.
"The lessons of our history from the Civil war to World War II are solid proof that modern war will be fought by all citizens, men and women of our nation. We can feel assured that all will be in it, in some capacity."

N.A.S.
YOU'D never guess to see him now, but just two weeks ago there was a sad, forlorn look in Sheedy's beady eyes. People picked on him because his hair looked like he was moulding. Not a gel on campus would even carrion a conversation with him. Then he bought a bottle of Wildroot Cream-Oil hair tonic and he's been a gay old bird ever since. Non-alcoholic Wildroot containing Lanolin keeps hair neat and well-groomed all day long. Relieves annoying dryness, removes the loose ugly dandruff that can make you a social outcast. If your hair is giving you trouble, set your corpse for the nearest drug or toilet goods counter and get a bottle or tube of Wildroot Cream-Oil hair tonic. And ask your barber for professional applications. It's the best treatment your hair cadaver get.

Kill'em With Kindness Is Capital City Cop's Motto
Washington—(U.P.)-The way the cop on the corner looks at it, you've got to treat the public like people.
The cop in this case is Pvt. Ray Taylor of the Washington traffic divisions. He guards life and limb at one of the busiest intersections in the world—Fourteenth and Pennsylvania, three blocks from where President Truman lives.
Taylor, who is tough enough to lick his weight in pedestrians, is one of the most popular officers in town
Unless it's necessary, he doesn't have a blackjack, a revolver or a tough word for anybody—and his boss, Capt. Lorain Johnson, will back stand on that.
He's proved it time and again
The private, father of two and a man who claims he takes most of his orders from his wife instead of his captain, is only 31. He has a reputation for being able to smooth things out with his hand-waving and his whistle.
It's proved it time and again.
Not long ago, a local driver, who should have known better, made a left turn at the officer's corner. Taylor first gave the man a "hand signal."
Later the offender, who apparently realized the cop on the corner had been pretty nice about it, came around and apologized in person.
That didn't work, so he tooted his whistle. That worked.
"I had to give the man a ticket," the private said.
Officer 863, as the private sometimes is known around the neighborhood, doesn't pull his punches when a punch is what is called for. He'd give his brother a ticket, if he had one on hand, fact, some pretty big manuses in Washington have received "Taylor-made" tickets.
But even in protection of the walker, the most polite copper in Washington keeps his manners.
“A guy behind the wheel of a car made of steel has a lot better chance to hit you, guy who is walking across the street, give the walker a break,” he said.
Not long ago a woman pedestrian took a chance against the lights at the corner. He hand-waved and that didn't do any good. He used the whistle.
"You young whipper-snapper,
you You changed the light on
me."
The lady stopped and gave the cop a slice of her tongue. She added to the insult with:
The copper said, "yes m'amed"
dear boy, you, and went on my bed.
Taylor easily handles the country drivers who come in here from Urich, Mo., Farmer City, Ill., and other places where traffic isn't much of a problem.
The officer kills 'em all with kindness.

Teneka. —(U.R.)—Reports of wheat mosaic in Kansas fields have been noted today for the first time this fall in a weekly federal-state crop bulletin.
Disease Found In Kansas Wheat
Hubert Collins, government agricultural statistician, said;
"There have been some reports of wheat mosaic (an extremely damaging plant disease) in volunteer and early planted fields. Aphids, which carry the disease, are present in large numbers in some areas and they have been favored by a long period of warm weather.
"However, damage to the wheat cemeteries any, cannot be appraised at this time."
Meanwile continued dry weather in Kansas is beginning to retard growth of the wheat crop, the government report asserted. Soil moisture has become short in practically all areas, particularly in the central and north central counties.
Collins commented that "some yellowing of leaves indicating moisture and nitrogen deficiency is occurring and the plant had a reassuring note to his reports.
As a result of the excellent progress that the fall-planted wheat made earlier, the abundant subsoil moisture supplies and the excellent root development, the crop's condition still can be listed generally as very good.
The mild autumn weather has been favorable for livestock. All classes were listed as being in generally excellent condition.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8. 1949
The Editorial Page-
KU - Without Cars?
A bill to prohibit the use of motor cars by students for pleasure or recreation at any of the state schools was introduced in the Kansas legislature by Senator M. V. B. De Mark, Cloud county. The bill applies only to those students who use automobiles for joyrides and is not directed against those who need cars to reach their classes.
Forbidding motor cars on the campus will promote democracy in the state institutions. Cars detract from school work, and the bill is intended to remedy the situation. The University is eager to express its sentiments against the use of automobiles for pleasure. The chancellor has sent letters to all parents of University students requesting that cars should be left at home.
A senate judiciary committee approved the bill but made several alterations. Instead of the expulsion from school suggested as punishment for students using cars for recreation, the committee proposed the violation be a misdemeanor. A jail sentence of from 10 to 30 days or a fine of from $100 to $300 was suggested for violators.
The bill, as introduced, does not only apply to the use of cars on the campuses of the various state schools, but prohibits students from using a car at any time or any place while enrolled in the school.
Yes, this news is shocking, isn't it? Well, that's exactly what K.U. students thought in 1923 when they read the above facts in the University Daily Kansan.
What did they do about it? They protested—and violently. Result? The bill was defeated in the senate. University students continued driving cars for pleasure as well as convenience. But this is what followed. As students began tracking the highways with miles, they also began padding the statistic books. For although college students are considered adults, they seem to have a craze for speed which makes them forget to use good judgment, avoid chances, and play fair with the other drivers competing for the easy travel made possible by automobiles and highways.
So many students are injured or killed in accidents yearly that insurance companies in five of every six states assess higher rates for persons between the ages of 18 and 24 than for adults
In a few days, nearly all the student-owned automobiles will be streaming from Lawrence, travelling nearly every highway in the state, taking us home for the Christmas holidays. With ten days to spend at home, we can surely afford to delay our trip an hour or two just to make sure that we'll get there safely, can't we? It's a good gamble. —Doris Greenbank
'Small Things'
We came across a fascinating movie ad the other day. It was for the new war movie "Battleground", and was evidently slanted for ex-soldiers. Above the picture of a girl who is evidently being groomed to succeed Jane Russell, was the headline;
OH BROTH-ER!
Beneath the picture was a smaller headline which asked us if we remembered "That Very Friendly French Girl."
The text ran: "M'aimez vous?" she asked with that inviting smile. And you replied, 'Come to papa,' or something equally poetic—and to the point. Didn't you form some beautiful friendship in this man's Army?"
If the ad is asking us, the answer is NO. We were too busy digging garbage pits and hiding from lieutenants to form friendships in "this man's army." And as for remembering that very Friendly French Girl, the one that stands out most in our memory was an ancient crone in whose apple orchard our battalion was parked. The old fool thought we were stealing her apples and ran about beating our heads with a broom and shouting "Allez! Allez!"

False Gods
- Letters To The Editor -
Dear Sir:
Hats off to a job well done. The University Players did a fine presentation of the play "False Gods." But my real congratulations go to the author, Brieux; for here is a play with a gripping story, and beyond this, it is froth with satire on modern religion. This play has the richest content of any it has been my experience to see. My hope is that the satire does not strike so close to home that it misses the audience realization.

Dear Editor:
Intramurals
... When an announcement appeared in the Kansan asking for names of those interested in basketball, I turned in my name. I have not yet heard anything from any team with regard to my application.
I should like to comment on a recent Kansan article about the intramural athletic program. It states: 'Powell, however, is still not satisfied with the number of men playing.
When the season started, I hunted up the manager of an independent team. He said he could use me and

I don't think my time to be so worthless that I can spend an evening doing nothing but shoot at a basket a few times between the halves. As far as I'm concerned, my basketball career is over in intramurals. . . Possibly this is what the team manager had in mind.
told me to show up for the team's next game. When I arrived, I was told that I would have to play under another name... several other players were doing the same thing. Since I wanted to play, I said nothing about the matter. I saw the start of the game from the bench. The time-keeper and scorer did not appear, so members of the teams were used. By the time the game was over, I was still on the bench.
Probably others have had this sort of an experience and perhaps this is one reason why more men do not participate in intramural athletics. Take note, Mr. Don Powell.

Former 'Shack' Student Is 'Wheel' On Time Magazine
Among University graduates receiving national attention is James A. "Jim" Bell, roving correspondent of Time magazine. He is a 1940 graduate of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information.
Praised by Time publisher James' A. Linen in a recent issue of that magazine, Bell has furnished background material for several major cover stories of national interest.
His latest background research concerned Frank Costello, who Time magazine refers to as a "gambler and underworld figure." The research material which Bell uncovered on the Costello story totaled 181 typewritten pages. These he turned over to a writer for the National Affairs section of Time magazine. This writer incorporated the information into the finished article.
Other stories written from material Mr. Bell contributed include write-ups on J. Edgar Hoover, chief of the Federal Bureau of Investigation; Louis Johnson, secretary of defense; Roy Roberts, publisher of the Kansas City Star; Gus Kuester, Iowa farmer; George Albert Smith, president of the Mormon church; DeLessieps Morrison, mayor of New Orleans; Harold Stassen, 1974 presidential candidate; and the first Hiss-Chambers trial in New York.
A native of Altoona and later a resident of Baguio, P. I., Bell was a reporter for the Topeka Daily Capital after his graduation from the University
His wife, the former Virginia Edith Gray',41, is also a graduate of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information. The Bells have a daughter, Jane, who is now 7 years old.
Bell's parents, Mr. and Mrs. George A. Bell, were both former students of the University. They and their younger son, David, were living in Baguio, P. I., at the outbreak of the war in 1941. Imprisoned by the Japanese when Baguio fell after a month-long seige Mrs. Bell died of disease brought on by a starved condition. Mr. Bell and David came to the United States after being released from the prison camp and are now living at Ajo, Ariz.
Bell began his work with Timi magazine in 1942 as a reporter in the Chicago bureau. After spending three years with the signal corps in the Pacific during the war, he re-commissioned the Chicago bureau in 1945. He later became a bureau in Washington, D. C. bureau and has worked out of that office since their
Bell covered the Hiss-Chambers trial in New York the past summer. Having completed his research for the Costello story, he is now covering the second Hiss-Chambers trial

Veterans To Get Dividend Notice
World War II veterans who have applied for the special dividend on National Service Life insurance and who have not received acknowledgment after a reasonable length of time should submit a new application, the Veterans Administration said recently.
A second application should be clearly marked "dunlicate."
The Veterans Administration has received 38,000 applications that have been returned due to insufficient information. Veterans are cautioned to give complete address and service or serial number when filing applications.
If a veteran moves after submitting a dividend application, he should be certain to notify the post office of his new address.

Work Is Begun On Plans For KU Fieldhouse
Actual work that will lead to completion of the long-sought fieldhouse at the University has been started.
Hubert Brighton, secretary of the Kansas board of regents, announced, "Mr. Marshall (Charles Marshall, state architect) advised me today that work had been started in his office on preliminary plans for a fieldhouse at KU. It is contemplated that detailed plans will be ready to advertise for bids in the spring."
It has been decided definitely that the field house plans will be prepared by the state architect, Joseph J. Wilson, K.U. business manager and chairman of the university's fieldhouse committee, said. The building program authorized for state institutions by the last legislature has made it necessary to retain architectural firms on some projects.
The legislature appropriated $750,000 for the K.U. fieldhouse the past spring.
Mr. Marshall will prepare preliminary plans for a structure seating 16,000 at basketball games, Mr Wilson said. It is believed here that only the University of Minnesota structure has a larger capacity. Approximate outside dimensions for such a building would be 240 by 340 feet. There will be a dirt floor arena area of about 25,000 square feet, which may be used for track and field events and for baseball and football practice. The basketball floor will be portable.
Plans now being prepared will be only for the fieldhouse unit, according to Mr. Wilson. Provisions will be made for connecting a subsequent gymnasium and physical education unit.
Mr. Wilson said no reliable estimate of cost could be made until detailed plans with specifications of materials are ready in the spring. However, he believes the fieldhouse unit might easily cost 1/4 million dollars, a half-million dollars more than is now available.
"Because we now don't know just what the cost will be or how much money will be available, the plans will have to include numerous alterate specifications," Mr. Wilson said. "Installation of all seats might have to wait further financing, for one thing."
The preliminary plans now being prepared will represent a combination of ideas advanced by the K.U. committee and Mr. Marshall. The plans of the Kansas State college fieldhouse will not be adopted, as had been suggested by some.
The site for the fieldhouse is still undecided. Two locations receiving the heaviest study with respect to cost of construction, avail-ble and available land, intramural fields south of 16th street and west of Michigan street.
Mr. Wilson said neither the University fieldhouse committee nor the building committee of the K.U. Athletic association had any recommendations at this time for financing the fieldhouse beyond the $750,-000 appropriation.
Wichita Boxer May Fight Rocky Graziano In Michigan
Wichita, Kan., Dec. 8—(U.P.)-Hard-punching Alvin Williams, Wichita, scored a ten round decision over Anton Raadik, Chicago, here last night.
The verdict was unanimous in favor of Williams who has been offered a match with Rocky Graziano in Grand Rapids, Mich., on the basis of his victory.
Both fighters weighed 164 pounds
Stray Bullet Misses Driver
Two Harbors, Minn. — (U.P.) A stray bullet from a deer hunter's gun smashed through the window of Keith Hassett's car as he drove near here. The bullet struck the steering wheel and ripped through his coat sleeve. Mr. Hassett and his three passengers were not hurt.
Latvian Linguist, Swimmer Will Be First DP Student
Tatjana Plume, 22-year-old Latvian, will be the first displaced person to be brought to the University. The Westminster fellowship of Presbyterian students is sponsoring the plans to bring Miss Plume to Kansas, Marilynn Lee, chairman of the Westminster scholarship committee said.
Miss Plume is now living in Innsbruck, Austria. She is a linguist and has taught Russian and other languages and will major in philosophy at the University. She is on the Austrian national swimming team and has held the title of national master of swimming there.
"the fellowship is not sending her anything for Christmas," Dr. John Patton, sponsor of the fellowship, said today. "There is not enough time for it to reach her and she may make up country and travel to bring much with her. It will be from three to five months before she arrives."
She will live with Dr. and Mrs. Patton.
By terms of the agreement under which D.P. students may enter the United States, Miss Plume will become a U.S. citizen. The Westminster fellowship has sent assurance papers to the state department and the World Student Service fund guaranteeing that it will be responsible for her during her first year at the University. The guarantee includes providing the student's transportation from Europe to Lawrence, outfitting her with clothing, supplying money for books and fees, and providing board and room for the first year.
The Westminster fellowship will conduct a campaign Monday, Dec. 12 to Sunday, Dec. 18 to complete financing the scholarship. They will solicit contributions from alumni as well as from present members. Miss Lee said that if the project proved successful, the group will sponsor another student.
Robert Petitt, College senior, and Patricia Speer, fine arts senior, will be in charge of the fund raising. Other members of the committee are: Leon Stomire, engineering sophomore, Donald Kerle, engineering sophomore, Robert Dale Judy graduate student, and Mrs. Rollir Wade, Lawrence.

Dr. Allen played on his father's teams of '39, 40, and '41. He played the "quarterback" spot. The '40 club advanced to the N.C.A.A. finals by defeating Southern California 43 to 42 in Kansas City. In third place,密度 60 to 42.He was voted a center position on the N.C.A.A. All-America tourney team.
Coach Allen's son was all-Big Six selections in '40 and '41 and was elected honorary captain along with Howard Engleman and John Kline of the '41 club which tied Iowa State College for the championship.
After July 1, 1950, Dr. Allen will be located in Kansas City, Mo., where he will practice surgery. His wife, the former Jean McFarland of Topeka, attended the University from 1938-41. They have a 4-year-old son, Robert, Jr.

Chiang Flees To Formosa With Cabinet
Hong Kong, Dec. 8.-(U.P.)-Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek and the Chinese Nationalist cabinet today fled the mainland of China and established their new seat of government on the island fortress of Formosa.
Chiang left Chengtu this morning in his personal plane as Communist forces closed in on the Nationalists' last mainland capital from three directions. Communist capture of Chengtu was expected in a day or two.
The cabinet, meeting in an extraordinary session Wednesday night, agreed to remove the state of government from Chengtu to Formosa. It also created two guerilla headquarters to command all military operations on the mainland.
One of the headquarters was established at Sichang, capital of remote Sikang province in the mountains of far western China.
The entire nationalist position in southwest China collapsed along with the defense of Chengtu. Nationalist officials fled Kunming, capital of Yunnan province, and left the city in the hands of provincial army men who were reported ready to join the Communists.
At the same time two of Chiang's closest advisers revealed that the Nationalist government has prepared plans to draft Formosans of fighting age to protect the former Japanese island against Communist assaults.
The advisers also disclosed that the Nationalists plan to abandon the mainland of China except for a token force of government officials, who will seek to function somewhere in the barren mountain country of remote Sikang province.
All other government officials and fighting forces, will be withdrawn either to Formosa or to Hainan island, off the southern coast of China.
The plan to call draftees for the army in Formosa was disclosed by two of Chiang's closest aides, Gen. Chen Cheng, governor of Formosa, and Ng Lan-Yu, secretary general of the Kuomintang emergency committee.
The mobilization will start early next year, Chen said. Refugees from the mainland will be subject to conscription as well as native Formosans, he said.
Chen indirectly recognized that the Formosans may oppose conscription by appealing to the islanders to discard their traditional antagonism against mainlanders.

UN To Consider Last Issue Of Current Session
Flushing, N. Y., Dec. 9—(U.P.)-The United Nations general assembly faced the last issue of its current session today on the question of internationalizing Jerusalem.
The assembly's special political committee voted 35-13, on Tuesday, to recommend strict internationalization of the entire holy city, despite dire warnings from both Israel and Jordan, whose troops hold the town of 250,000 persons, that the plan will not work.
There was intensive lobbying as lines were drawn for a parliamentary skirmish. The United States was reported in the fore-
as lines were drawn for a parliamentary skirmish. The United States was reported in the forefront of the campaign, attempting to convince enough delegates to change their votes so that the required two-thirds majority vote could not be reached.
Competent observers expected the question to be thrown wide open by reintroduction in the assembly of a plan, defeated in committee, to internationalize only the holy places of three faiths under a high commissioner. Many believ- positions in the assembly would journ—probably shortly after noon on Saturday—without taking action on Jerusalem.
Despite the prospect of this somewhat baleful ending, the fourth general assembly reckoned several major accomplishments.
Top development of the 11-week session, which began Sept. 20, was the election of Yugoslavia to the security council in opposition to Russia's candidate, Czechoslovakia. Supported by the United States, Marshal Tito's government on the ground in an election against the Russian Foreign Minister Andrei Y, Vishinsky immediately announced the Soviet Union would not recognize. The showdown was expected when Yugoslavia takes its council seat in January.
Not far behind, in public interest, were the charges brought by China against Russia for the Kremlin's help to the Chinese Reds.
Diabetes Tests Deadline Dec.11
Faculty members and employees of the University who wish to be checked for diabetes should report to Watkins Memorial hospital for a test before Sunday, Dec. 11. This is part of the diabetes detection drive which is to be conducted throughout the country by the Douglas County Medical society in cooperation with the American diabetic association.
"Specimens will be taken at Watkins hospital the first thing in the morning or from two to three hours after a full meal," said Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the University health service.
Tests for diabetes will be made free of charge by any physician who is a member of the Douglas County Medical society. Only sugar will be tested for, and only positive tests will be reported to the individual.
Christmas Seal Sales Go Slow
The sale of Christmas seals on the campus has reached 5,000 seals, which is still far short of a quota of 50,000.
"At this rate we will probably not meet our quota," said Margo Taylor, chairman of the campus drive, "But as the Christmas vacation approaches, I think the sales will increase."
The money collected from the University drive, which is conducted by the Douglas County Tuberculosis association, will be used for the prevention and treatment of tuberculosis and for health education.
The campus drive began Monday, Nov. 28, and was to end in one hour of a lag of sales the drive was extended until the Christmas vacation.
At present there are receipt boxes located at the Union cafeteria, book store, and fountain, also at the Robinson business office. Most of the stores near the campus, or stores that are patronized mostly by students, have Christmas seal boxes prominently displayed.

Professor Morgan has long been interested in the works of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, 18th century German poet, philosopher, and statesman. Goeth's philosophy and work for her are still the theme of the Goethe Bicentennial celebration in Aspen, Colo., the past summer.
Professor Morgan is an author, musician and scholar. He has been associated with the German department of Stanford university since 1934. He was at the University of Wisconsin from 1907 until going to Stanford. He has written textbooks dealing with German language and literature.

cities and universities. He will appear in Kansas City, Mo., tonight.
His career began in London, where he played in several plays after studying at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts. One of these, "Payment Deferred," brought him to New York. When the play was made into a film he starred in it with Ray Milland.
He has appeared in many motion pictures, including "The Private Life of Henry the Eighth," "The Big Bike Jump on the Harbor," "The Barrettes of Wimpole Street," "The Paradise Case," "Hunchback of Notre Dame," and "Les Miserables."
Not only is Mr. Laughton noted for his depiction of many famous characters of stage, screen, and books, but also for his characterizations from the Bible. During the war he began a "one-man campaign" to revive interest in the Bible as "an exciting, living, absorbing Book."

Fans Must Leave Cameras Home
Students are requested to leave their cameras at home this year when attending University basketball games, according to a joint plea by E. C. Quigley, athletic director, and Dr. F. C. Allen, head basketball coach.
"In the past we have had trouble with amateur photographers shooting pictures since the bulbous mind of the players." Dr. Allen said.
Persons wishing to take pictures for newspapers and other publications should obtain permission from Don Pierce, sports publicity director, 105 Robinson Gym.
College students whose G.I. bill entitlements are running out can extend their period of government financed education, the Veterans Administration in Washington said today.
The G.I. bill allows full-time students a 15-day leave at the end of each semester. Normally, subsistence allowance is paid automatically for the 15-day periods and each vacancy from the veteran's total entitlement
Vets May Extend Their Schooling
Students may now exchange their paid vacations for extension of their entitlement, the V. A. said. They must pay back to the V. A. the subsistence allowances collected for vacation periods. For each 15-day period they can collect 15 more days of G.I. bill schooling.
"We have no information at K.U. other than a V.A. press release from Washington. We will release information about the effective date or method of procedure as soon as it is available." Dr. Elbel said.
"I believe there has been a relatively large number of veterans who have accepted leave pay at the University," Dr. E. R. Elbel, director of the Veterans bureau said. "If these veterans had not accepted their leave, they could have gone past the mid-semester mark and the V. A. would have paid for the remainder of the semester."
The V.A. in Washington said that veterans who were told they might either accept or reject their 15-day leave periods, and then accepted them, are not entitled to purchase more school time. But most students

ment, and all instruction will be under their supervision.
Toppea, Dec. 9—(U.P.)—North Central Kansas today had a snow blanket up to three inches thick while freezing drizzle coated southern sections.
The wintertime weather covered the state. Beloit reported three inches of snow in northern Kansas, Concordia two, and Phillipsburg one.
Weatherman Richard Garrett said the precipitation—intermittent light snow or freezing mist—will end this afternoon and tonight on a graduated schedule starting in the northwest and finishing in the southeast.
Garrett said Saturday will be warmer but the recess from frigid temperatures will be brief. Much colder temperatures are expected in Kansas Saturday night and Sunday.
Students May Fly Again In CAA Approved Program
The club will teach members to fly, and anyone enrolled in the University is eligible for membership said Dr. William Simpson, chairman of the aeronautical engineering department.
University students will take to the air again next semester with the reactivation of the Jayhawk Flying club.
"We plan to make the program enjoyable and safe," he said. "Our program is approved by the Civil Aeronautics Administration and will enable members to earn a private pilot's license in a minimum length of time and at a considerably reduced rate."
A meeting of all interested persons will be held at 7:30 p.m. Dec. 15, in the Aeronautical Engineering building.
Members will receive college credit for two courses required for a private license. The ground school course is worth two hours of credit, and the private flight course one hour.
Norman W. Hoecker, airplane and engine mechanic, will be in charge of all equipment. The ground school will be taught by members of the aeronautical engineering depart-
"Anyone who joins the club will in all probability have a private pilot's license by the end of the semester," Dr. Simpson said.
The approved program permits reduction of flying hours from 50 to approximately 35 and the cost will vary according to the student's progress. The government will not pay for the course under the G.I. bill.
Flight training is not new here, Dr. Simpson said. "K.U. was one of the 'first 9 or 10 schools in the country to start a civilian pilot training program just before the past war. Between 1939 and 1944 about 65,000 students were trained in the sponsorship of the federal government. Not a single permanent injury was incurred during that period."
The Jayhawk Flying club was first organized in 1945 and attained a membership of 48 members before the government discontinued payments for that type of training.

Wichita.—(U.P).—Wichita police reported Wednesday there have been nine liquor stores burglaries here in the last two weeks.
Each has been a smallraid—usually one case of whisky. Captain Harold Huckins, chief of the vice department, believes the outbreak of liquor burglaries has been the work of novice prowlers looking for Christmas drinking supplies.

As Argentine Game Takes Hold In America Bridge Loses Fans To Canasta
Instead of "What's trumps?" the latest question heard around the card tables of the nation is, "How much do we need to meld now?" Bridge has lately lost many fans to Canasta, a new card game which is sweeping the country.
Coming to the United States from Argentina, it became popular with Americans the past sumer. Canasta is a glorified combination of runny and "Oklahoma" which is harder and more exciting than the two games from which it evolved.
The Spanish word "canasta"
means "basket" in English. A canasta
in the card game consists of a
group of at least seven cards of one
kind. A natural canasta is one with
no wild cards and counts 500 points
no matter whether it is composed of
fours or aces. A mixed canasta may
include up to three wild cards
which counts 300 points. A canasta
is like a "basket" of seven wild
cards—it says here in small print.
A modest two counts 20 points and is a "wild" card while the red threes have a value of 100 points. Black threes are used to prevent an opponent from picking up the discard pile.
The usually unused and unwanted joker counts 50 and is also "wild." Aces are valued at 20 points and the royalty of the deck, the king, queen and jack, extends down to and including the eight to give 10 points. Sevens down to fours count five points.
Two decks are used with 5,000 points as the winning number. The most important win is a far disant goal but it is one hand sure may go as high as 2,000 or more.
Phi Kappa Psi fraternity will entertain with their Christmas formal dance from 6:30 p.m. until midnight Saturday in the Kansas room of the Union.
Any number of persons from two to eight can play. In four, six, or eight-handed games, partners can team up in this fool's paradise. It is a tricky game, and until 5,800 is reached, it's anybody's game.

Militaristic Toys Banned By 400 German Children
Berlin-(U.P.)-More than 400 children, representing approximately 200 west Berlin schools at the "School Parliament," have agreed to ban militaristic toys. The assembly, sponsored by American-controlled RIAS radio, deals exclusively with questions concerning youth.
Boys and girls, ranging in age from 10 to 18, cannibalized west Berlin toy shops urging shop keepers to demilitarize their stock and display posters saying "We do not sell any militaristic toys."
The shop-hunting was originated by Wolfgang Hanel, a 19-year-old university student, who commented.
They had visited 95 shops, found 66 owners willing to co-operate, received 15 doubtful promises, and faced 14 blunt resections.
"Simply condemning militaristic toys does not take us anywhere. Yet we have to do something. I know personally how much toy manufacturers helped Hitler to raise love for the German Wehrmacht even in the very small children. I was myself once very fond of tanks and battleships, and wanted with all my heart to become a soldier."
After five days of crusading, 34 sore-footed teenagers gathered at the RIAS building to exchange experiences and make their reports.
The young crusaders explained that the doubtful promises consisted mostly of the pledge to deal no longer with military-styled toys—after the existing stock was sold.
The youthful committee considered two refusals particularly noteworthy. A shopkeeper in the U. S. sector, Tempelhof borough, said:
"The German children should be granted the right to play with the same toys given to children of other nations. Of course, I do not sell any foreign-dressed tin soldiers but I will certainly sell true German toy soldiers, if I can get any."
The young delegates put their stamp of approval on one of Berlin's popular toys, the jeep, provided it does not bear military insignia or carry uniformed soldiers.
A store owner in the Schoenberg borough observed: "First take care that the foreign troops withdraw, go ahead and start a drive like this."
Unarmed airplanes also were approved. The excited crushers remembered the airlift planes that kept them and their parents from starving for almost a year during the Berlin blockade.

Nurses and therapists must accept as their reward the gratification of helping the other fellow, Miss Alma Jackson told members of the Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Pre-nursing clubs Tuesday.
Miss Jackson is clinical supervisor of physical therapy at the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kan. She returned this summer from therapeutic work with polio patients in Warm Springs, Ga.
Miss Jackson said that a therapist must understand the patient and make him realize why and how he is to be treated.
"As the therapeutic relationship deepens between patient and therapist, he can be made to comprehend his place in society," she said.
Miss Lilyan Warner, instructor of physical medicine, introduced the speaker.

Ceramic Materials Are Not Utilized By Kansas Industries, Ceramist Says
"Kansas has vast reserves of fine clays and other ceramic materials that aren't being developed," Norman Plummer, ceramist of the State Geological Survey, told the Sigma Gamma Epsilon geology fraternity Tuesday.
Mr. Plummer, '25 was an instructor of geology while doing his graduate work. He has worked on ceramic materials since 1932. He is doing research work on the potential resources of ceramic raw materials in Kansas.
"Although it is not weil known, Kansas has one of the largest sewer tile factories in the world, and the second largest roofing tile factory in the United States," said Mr. Plummer, "and leads the states in supplying volcanic ash for fine pottery."
Kansas minerals are not being used as much as they could be, said Mr. Plummer. Bentonite, a mineral clay that is especially useful in oil mining and as a bleaching material, is so valuable that quantified in western Kansas, but not best utilized to its best advantage by industry.
Mr. Plummer believes Kansas has a bright future in the field of ceramics if industry will use the state's potential resources.

Whoops! Said The Magician I Thought You Were A Rabbit
Washington—(U.R.)—A magician never knows when he reaches into his silk topper whether he's going to pull out a rabbit or a fuzzed hat band.
At least that's the way Harry Baker, one of the best in the business, looks at it.
Harry, a little guy, is a big man in the Washington chapter of the Society of American Magicians. Tonight he and his lads will put on a show for young and old at the National Press club. Mr. Truman regrets he can't be on hand. (He's vacationing at Key West, Fla.)
When the "professor" pulled what he thought was going to be his pet all at once, all he got was a handful of fur, and a sign which read—"on strike."
"People love to see an entertainer make a mistake," he said.
There was the time when he was appearing here at the Statler Hotel in front of a group of critical college professors. There was a strike on among the waiters, he recalls, and the waiters were lounging in the performer's dressing room.
The old-timer himself has had his troubles. A man of magic can get what he needs in a number of ways—and Harry has been living of the giggles and Bronx cheer.
"I neglected to check all of my props," he said.
According to Harry, a magician is in for trouble if he doesn't double check all of his "props" before he goes on.
Anyhow, Harry thinks that if there are miscues tonight the show will be just as good as if it were perfect.
One time he was invited to entertain the folks at the Columbia country club here.
He had a hot card trick he wanted to show off. While he was eating dinner, some weg got into his prop department in the dressing room and re-jiggered all of the cards he had fixed.
"I was a total flop that night," he said. "The management was so mad I didn't even get my fee. I got a lot

Television is giving the men of magic a bad time. Sure, you can saw a woman in two before the cameras, but there are a lot of tricks which don't work so well on video.
Take one of Harry Baker's best stunts.
Before an audience, he gets a lot of laughs and oh's and ah's with a tie trick. He flips it and it comes out of his breast pocket red. He pulls the tie down and putting the "kerchief back," and it comes out blue. Next time green.
"How you gonna do that on television—until color comes?" he asks.
For identifying Johnny Mercer as the star of the week on the Perry Como radio show, Donna Marie Corel, junior at Liberty Memorial High school, won $1,000 Thursday night.

Donna said that she sometimes listens to the program Sunday night, but that she was not listening when she was called. Donna was the fifteenth person to be called during the evening and to be asked to identify Mr. Mercer through the help of a record and a few hints.
Mary Garden Falls Chips Elbow
"I guessed Perry Como at first," she said. "Then he told me that the man's first name was Johnny, and Johnny Mercer was the only person I could think of."
Mary Garden, former opera star who spoke before a University convocation Nov. 3, was forced to cancel a similar speech Wednesday at Kent State university in Cleveland, Ohio, because of a chipped elbow.
She was treated in Cleveland for a cut knee, and her arm was put in a sling.
Miss Garden, who is 72 but extremely active, fell in Chicago Tuesday when she tripped on a wire outside a railroad station.

Tests To Be Given For Entry Into Coast Guard Academy
The nationwide competitive examination for entrance into the U.S. Coast Guard academy, New London, Conn., will be held on Feb. 20 and Feb. 21, 1950, Andrew F. Schoeppel, senator from Kansas, announced recently.
Bring Them To
The senator said that there is no limit on the number of candidates that come from any single area. He urged all those interested to apply as soon as possible, since the necessary papers must be completed by Jan. 15, 1850.

Risk's Help-Your-Self Laundry
The number of candidates selected each year depends upon the needs of the service, Senator Scheepel said. A candidate, in order to gain admittance to the academy, not only must pass the examination but must pass high enough so as to be assured of selection for appointment.
"Men who take the examinations must be between the ages of 17 and 22, American citizens, in excellent physical condition, and must show proof of their moral character and standing in the community," Senator Schoepel said.
Phone 623
"Graduates of the Coast Guard academy four-year course receive commissions as enlisted in the United States Coast Guard and a Bachelor of Science degree in engineering," Senator Schoeppel said.
"This academy ranks high with other service schools in training for leadership, education, and service to the nation.
Minimum educational requirement is a high school diploma, although high school seniors who will complete their course at the end of the year are eligible to take the competitive examination. Students in mathematics, English, physics, and other standard high school subjects.
The examinations, which are given over a two-day period, include
achievement tests in English, social studies, mathematics, science, and aptitude and ability tests."
Interested students may obtain further information by writing Senator Schoeppel in Washington, D.C., or to the Commandant, U.S. Coast Guard, Washington 25, D.C.
Nine Kansas Counties Have Only One Doctor
Topcka — (U.P.) — Nine. western Kansas counties have only one doctor each, a roster of state physicians published by the Kansas Board of Health showed Thursday.
This situation in counties of small population contrasts with the 280 physicians in Wichita, Kansas' biggest city. Kansas City has 234, Topeka 107.
The first of its kind issued since before the war, the roster disclosed that Gray, Haskell, Hodgeman, Kearny, Lane, Morton, Ness, Stanton and Wichita counties each have just one medical man.

Lovellette Has Received Landslide Of Publicity
Clyde Lovellette, the 6' 9" sophomore terror, is a rare specimen in Kansas basketball history. He already has received a landslide of publicity, yet is several weeks away from his Big Seven conference debut. For the record that will be January 6 against Oklahoma here.
Although the Jayhawkers have played two games, Lovellette will be unveiled before the home folks for the first time Saturday night when K.U. plays host to Purdue of the Big Ten in Hoop auditorium.
Big Clyde gave Jayhawker patrons a road preview last week-end by stacking in 14 points against Rockhurst in 28 minutes of play and doubling that total against Creighton before fouling out midway through the final half. Kansas split this pair, thumping Rockhurst, 55 to 34, and bowing to the hard-scrapping Bluejays, 55 to 59.
Three factors have led to Lovellette's whirlwind of press notes: 1) He is one of the greatest performers produced in Mid-west high school ranks. 2) He is the tallest man in K.U. hoop history, towering two inches higher than Al Wellhausen, the old goal-tender of the thirties and Gene Peterson, the poker-faced scoring machine who is now his senior teammate. 3) He prop in Phog. his rebuilding campus which is all being dominated by sophomores. The veteran Jay Hawley headman has even built a new Kansas offense around the 230-pound center, replacing his traditional three-out two-in style with a single post.
Lovellette is bound to gain another column or two of space as Allen hands down this statement; the looks like he will be as good as any guy.
The doctor has been around Mt. Oread 32 years and has unleashed some terrific rookie performers such as Charlie Black, now with Fort Wayne Zollners; Ray Ebling, who won the hoop scoring championship as a sophomore in 1934; and Ray Evans, who was chosen All-American in his first varsity season in 1942.
Allen elaborates to say that "Lovellette takes coaching well and promises to be a fierce competitor." If he continues to improve defensively and learns to sustain his rebounding power, especially against rival competitors of equal stature, the tremendous rookie should be a first class pivotal man by late season.
Lovelley earned all-state plaudits at Garfield high, Terre Haute, Ind., as a junior in 1947. His club lost to Shelbyville in the finals that year but the smiling center canned 25 points. He was so good the next season that he was included on the Hoosier all-star squad in the annual joust against Kentucky's best prepes even though his team didn't reach the state tournament semifinals. All-State men are picked from only the top four clubs in Indiana.
Clyde poured through 20 points in the 70 to 35 demolition of Kentucky although playing only a half. He hit the 35-point mark no less than six times in his interscholastic career. In three years he rimmed slightly more than 1400. He also earned prep letters in football as an end and baseball as a pitcher. As a Golden Gloves novice he went all the way to Chicago as a 15-year-old light-heavy after wading through local and state opposition.
This is the whelhorse the Purdeo boilermakers must hobble if they are to fell Allen's youthful troupe. The Jayhawkers are expected to lead with two other sophomores, Bill Hougland, 6' 4 inch, and Bob Kenney, husky 6' 2 inch forward.
Purdue opened with a 70 to 49 manhandling of DePauw and will rank a solid favorite. K.U. has some rebounding to do following its ambush at Omaha.
New York, Dec. 9 — (U.P.)—Charles (Bud) Wilkinson, 34-year-old pilot of unbeaten and Sugar bowl-bound Oklahoma, today was named "coach of the year" by the American Foot- Coaches association in a poll conducted by the New York World Telegram and the Scripps-Howard newspaper.
Wilkinson Chosen Coach Of The Year
Runners-up to Wilkinson with 69 votes was Lynn Waldorf, coach of unbeaten California, the Rose bowl team. Waldorf also finished second last year behind Bennie Oosterbaan and third behind Fritz Crisler of Michigan in 1957. Waldorf won the first "coach of the year" award in 1935.
The Sooners skipper polled 102 first place votes out of 382 ballots. He was named either first, second, or third, on 199 ballots, although many voters made only one selection.
Frank Leahy, coach of unbeaten Notre Dame, was third with 43 votes and then came Wesley Fesler of Ohio State with 27. Tuss McLaughry of Dartmouth received 26, and Ivan Williamson of Wisconsin, 24.
Rate May Rise For Kansas Phones
Topcka — (U.P.) — District t Judge Dean McFlenhoy heard testimony in the southwestern bell telephone company's application for an injunction to bar the state from enforcing existing rates.
If granted, the injunction would permit S.W.B. to put into effect immediately the higher service charges it claims is necessary to operate in Kansas at a fair profit return.
The move came after the Kansas Corporation commission continued indefinitely a company application for a $ 340,000 a year rate increase.
Southwestern Bell serves approximately 350,000 customers out of 143 Kansas exchanges.

SPOTLIGHT on SPORTS
By BOB NELSON
Kansas State (3-1) defeated a good Long Island university club 58 to 51 last night in Madison Square Garden.
Colorado, with last year's starting five intact, looked impressive in defeating Emporia State Teachers in their first two outings 55 to 45, and 62 to 42 to rate as the conference "darkhorse" club. This team has height and plenty of experience.
Iowa State (2-1) also turned in a fine performance last night against Bradley U., 2nd ranking team in the nation in several pre-season ratings, in suffering their first loss 56 to 48 in Peoria, Ill. Trailing 23 to 30 at halftime, the Cyclones came back to battle the powerful Braves on almost even terms the second half in giving away only one point.
These early season performances indicate plenty of thrills for conference cage fans and probable numerous upsets that will make the race a wide-open affair until the final gun on Mar. 11.
Just when are Big Seven officials going to be consistent and decide to treat all member schools alike in regards to the scheduling of athletic events on and off the campuses of the various schools?
While in Omaha, Nebr., for the Kansas-Creighton game, much dissatisfaction was heard concerning the conference ruling which kept the Jayhawkers from playing their previously scheduled Creighton game at Boystown, Nebr. Officials had long planned for Coach "Phog" Allen's Jayhawkers to dedicate their new field house.
What we'd like to know is how Oklahoma U. is allowed to play their annual football game in Dallas' Cotton bowl against Texas. This is a grid show that probably produces more revenue for these schools than some Big Seven schools make all year.
It seems too bad that Dr. Allen and his squad were denied the honor of helping to dedicate a building at one of the country's most worthwhile organizations.
Could it be that the denial was more of a slap at Phog Allen.
In recapping the Kansas loss to Creighton, Coach Allen had this to say concerning Don "Pinky" Knowles' sensational shooting that netted him 26 points. "This great ball player did everything with the ball except let the air out of it."
Hunters Pay $700 In Fines
Chadron, Neb.,—(U.P.) Three Nebraska big game hunters have paid a total of $700 in fines and liquidated damages for breaking game commission rules.
Frank Petriccek of Howell paid a $100 fine and $400 damages for shooting a doe after sunset, and Ivan Stratton of West Point was fined $100 for trying to kill a doe after sunset. Albert Seeman, also of West Point, paid $100 for hunting without a permit.
The guns of all three were confiscated.

Purdue
The first Big Ten basketball team ever to play in Lawrence will be the favored Purdue Boilermakers as they open the Jayhawkers' home season at 7:30 p.m. Saturday in Hoch auditorium.
Purdue, tie for third with Indiana and Ohio State last year with a season's record of 13 won and nine lost, will be after their second win. They downed DePauw in this year's opener 70 to 49 the past Saturday.
On the other hand, the Jayhawkers will be out to better two marks and even up a third. Dr. Allen's charges will be trying to better their .500 mark after downing Rockhurst 55 to 34 and losing to Creighton 55 to 59
Seven returning Kansas lettermen will be seeking revenge for last year's 47 to 46 loss to the Boilermakers at Lafayette, Ind. Kansas led 28 to 17 at halftime, but faltered late in the game which witnessed some great shooting by Claude Houchin as he paced both clubs with 17 points.
Kansas has split four previous games with Big Ten teams downing Minnesota in 1922 32 to 11, won over Iowa in 1942 by a 55 to 33 margin and lost to Indiana 60 to 42 in the 1940 N.C.A.A. finals, besides last year's one-point loss to the Boilermakers.
Coach Allen will start the same
lineup that started the first contest at Rockhurst. At the forward spots will be Bill Hougland and Bob Kenney, at center the K.U. scoring wizard, six-foot nine-inch Clyde Lovellette, with Claude Houchin and Jerry Waugh at the back line positions.
The Boilermakers will be paced by Howard Williams, all-conference guard, and leading scorer on last year's club with 286 points. At center will be Andy Butchko, a terminal on the grid squad and a six-foot four-inch pivot and second high scorer in 1949 with 261 points. Butchko and Lovellette should hook up in quite a scoring duel.
At one forward will be Darrel Brewster, who played with Lovellette on the Indiana all-state team when they meet the Kentucky all-staters.
The other two starting positions on Coach Mel Taube's club will go to lettermen forward Dick Axness and guard William Banks.

Townsendites Will Celebrate 17 Years Of Seeking The Illusive 'Pot Of Gold'
Washington—(U.P.)The Townsend plan will celebrate its 17th birthday in 1950. It now claims five million supporters.
Officials of the old age pension plan estimated that this is the number of persons who are active—though not necessarily Townsend club members—in the fight for a program that goes far beyond any "fair deal" proposals.
The plan would levy a three per cent gross income tax each month on all individuals and organizations - except non-profit groups. One estimate is that such a tax would yield enough to pay every person, more than 60 years of age about $145 a month.
Townsendites say they have an active mailing list of 6,500 clubs of the 12,309 chartered since 82-year-old Dr. Francis E. Townsend first proposed "the plan."
"It is impossible to ascertain how many of the others still consider themselves within the periphery of the Townsend organization and give it support at the polls," a Townsend spokesman said.
He and others said the five million figure is not restricted to known club members. It takes into account for instance, the 1,395,125 votes cast in 1944 for the plan in Arizona.
California, Oregon, and Washington The plan was not adopted in those states.
Some indication of popular support for the plan may be reflected in the fact that 179 house members have signed a petition to bring up the Townsend plan bill for debate before Congress without committee consideration. A total of 218 signatures is required for such action.
The bill is sponsored by Rep. John A. Blatnik, D. Minn.) Minnesota is one of five states where Townsend headquarters report increasing activity in industrial regions. The others are Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, and Pennsylvania. California, however, is still the recognized "stronghold" of the movement. The plan claims that 198 clubs are active there.

Truman Shapes New Budget
Key West, Fla.,—(U.P.)—President Truman soon will begin conferences here at the winter white house on the final form of the new budget, which undoubtedly will be higher than last year's $41,300,000,000.
The chief executive's staff of advisers will be joined shortly by Frank Pace, director of the bureau of the budget.
Actual budget totals are pretty well set, and no member of the president's staff would hazard a guess at the overall total.
But, with continuously high expenses of the foreign assistance programs and the high defense budget, plus an administration hope of lowering the deficit, the new budget was expected to be larger than the current year.
Some estimates, unofficial but educated to a certain extent, ran as high as 45 billion dollars.
Meantime, it was learned that Chief Justice of the United States Fred M. Vinson, one of the chief executive's closest cronies and a frequent policy adviser, will join Mr. Truman within a few days. Another White House administrative assistant, David Stowe, also is scheduled for early arrival.

Soap Substitutes Help Cure Hardening Of The Arteries
An amazing story of how research scientists have begun experiments with detergents, the popular soap substitutes, to find a way to flush fat out of blood vessels was told here by Dr. A. C. Ivy.
Pittsburgh—(U.P)Medical science, dipping into the greasy dishpans of a million housewives, has come up with what might someay wipe out hardening of the arteries.
Speaking at the University of Pittsburg, Dr. Ivy explained that hardening of the arteries begins with the collection of excess fat along the inner walls of blood vessels.
When the fat is in the soft stage, he said, pieces of it may become dislodged from where it has been piling up. Entering the blood stream, the pieces often reach the heart or brain and cause heart attacks or strokes by clogging the flow of blood.
Dr. Ivy, medical research worker, at the University of Illinois, told a group that experiments with certain animals have been deemed successful but no work has been done with humans yet.
As the fat hardens, the arteries become brittle, aging the victim and perhaps causing an early death.
Dr. Ivy said the dishpan really was responsible for the medical experiments. Researchers, he said, noted what detergents did to grease on dishes and decided it would be ideal for "washing" fat off the inside of arteries if they could get it into the blood stream.
"In fact, there isn't a single field of medicine regarding which we don't have a real basis for hope.
They developed a drug with a detergent in it and, according to Dr. Ivv, the outlook is promising.
Medicine has made great progress in the fight against infantile paralysis, cancer, heart disease, arthritis, and other major killers or cripplers, he said.
"We are at a turning point in the history of medical research," the scientist asserted. "We have conceived, all by our acute and infectious diseases."
Dr. Ivy said, however, that the common cold and polio were the outstanding enemies which so far have against being eliminated by science.
There is "real hope" that cancer will soon be brought under control, he said. He declared there is reason to believe that the cancer mystery lies in the blood.
He pointed out that a cancer planted in the tail of a rat will knock a certain enzyme out of the kid's rattle within a few davs.
"We know the only connection between the tail and the liver is in the blood stream. The answer must be there somewhere. We must find
"Cut off the tail," he said, "and the enzyme returns to the kidney in a few more days.
Dr. Ivy concluded, "We (medical science) have succeeded in practically double the human life span in the last century. Now we must make these added years worthwhile living."
Films of the Oklahoma A. and M.- Kansas University football game were shown to members and guests of the K.U. Young Republicans club Tuesday.
Young GOP's See Football

Male Crocheter Wins Top Prize
Chicago—U.P.)—A 205-pound railroad signal tower operator has said that fewer men would have ulcers if they learned how to crochet—and they wouldn't be considered sissies, either.
"I used to be jumpy and cranky," said Joseph Dolinaj, Dunellen, N.J., "But crocheting settled my nerves. Now I don't even need to read magazines or go to the movies. I'm perfectly content to sit at home and crochet."
He is in Chicago as the guest of the National Needlecraft bureau. His 6 by 8 foot lacy tablecloth—which he crocheted in a one-solid-piece fillet design—took first place in the men only classification at the 1949 international contest. Mr. Dolinari said he started crocheting five years ago.
"I got so sick of seeing my wife sitting around crocheting that I bet her $$ I could beat her at it," he said. "She showed me how to start and I bought a 10-cent book and I've been doing it ever since."
And his wife, Helen, added "Now when I want to know something, he shows me Dolhnaj said he spent two months meeting the prizewinning tablecloth.
"I did it all at work. I had it in a drawer and I'd work on it when I wasn't busy. When a train would come, I'd run over and pull another lever, then go back to the table-cloth." The 37-year-old husky railroad employee said that crocheting isn't sissy.
"The fellows used to give me the business when I first started. But they soon quit and began taking an interest," he said.
"Sure, it wasn't so easy at first.
R. Edwin Browne, '38, was elected chairman of the American College Public Relations association, District eight. The meeting was held at a joint conference of that group with district six of the American Alumni council Sunday, through Tuesday, in Omaha, Neb.
Browne Heads College Group
Mr. Browne, former public relations director of the University, is now Alumni secretary and public Graceland college, Lamont, Iowa.
William S. Gibson, editor of the Vermillion, S. D., Plain Talk, spoke at the meeting. His topic was "The College and the Local Press."
A panel discussion on "Public Relations as it Affects Higher Education Today" was part of the conference program. A University film, "Your University," was shown at the movie section of the meeting.
Representatives from seven states attended the 3-day meeting. Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni association; Miss Mildred Cloffetter, assistant secretary of the Alumni association; Irvin Youngberg, executive secretary of the Endowment association; Thomas Yoe, director of public relations; and Marvin Small, assistant general secretary of the Alumni association, represented the University at the conference.
States represented at the conference were North Dakota, South Dakota, Oklahoma, Colorado, Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska.
First Dollar Is Always Best
Memphis, Tenn., —(U.P.)-Thirty-two years ago, Mrs. W. A. Alderson, a girl of six, won first prize for her exhibit of crocheted neckties. Every year since, Mrs. Alderson has had similar exhibits and she still has her first prize money, a check for one dollar.
I was nervous and when they kidded me it bothered me. But now they can kid me all they want—I've calmed down."
In addition to his Chicago trip, Mr. Dalinaj gets a $100 prize and he hopes to sell the tablecloth for another $350.

Safe Odds
Eleven days of school until vacation. Only eleven days of torture yet to be undergone by an impatient student body.
As the longest eleven days in the world drags slowly on, the frantic pace of school life will increase. Plenty of things to do... assignments to make up, dances and parties to attend, and tests to take.
And on the eleventh day joy will abound among the students, and still in fast tempo they will rush toward home and Christmas.
Most of them will make it
But remember, driving home, the way most students will, is a great gamble. The bookies would bet against the student's chances.
Why? An astute bookie would consult the tip sheet. Which in this case is an appallingly bloody and brutal record of traffic fatalities of previous years. The bookie would easily see that the odds are against the students.
He would see, for example, that in 1948 one person was killed in traffic accidents every $16 \frac{1}{2}$ minutes; one injured every 29 seconds. Not all students, of course, but there were some. Students seem especially susceptible.
Most students are between 18 and 24 years of age—that age group has 83.3 per cent more than its share of accidents.
Most students when driving home spend most of that driving time on the highways—twice as many accidents occur on highways than in the city.
Most students will be driving home for Christmas—December is the worst month for automobile accidents, year after year.
And many students will be driving at night----55 per cent of all fatalities occur at night.
Merry Christmas, and be one who makes it.

'Small Things'
A dirty trick, this cold wave, after we had begun to think that we might just skip winter this year.
Letter found on a professor's desk: Dear sir, When I was forced to take the course "evolution of the insect wing" from you 10 years ago, I wondered why on earth I was forced to take such a thing just because I had some divisions to fill. I wondered what good such learning would ever do me in the outside world. Since then, I have matured considerably, and now realize that K.U. knew best. You may know that I am now the head of a large manufacturing concern. Well, just the other day one of my associates said to me, "George, the grasshopper has an ovipositor of four pieces." I was able to reply to him, "You are wrong. The grasshopper has an ovipositor of six pieces." yours, George D.
David Lilienthal's resignation gives the president an opportunity to appoint as his successor a man of vision and proved executive ability and with a thorough knowledge of the problems of atomic energy. In short, a man like David Lilienthal.

'False Gods'
In Wednesday's Kansas appeared a letter strongly objecting to the play "False Gods". The writer, who was apparently ashamed to sign his name, hadn't seen the play, but had nevertheless decided that it "promotes atheism."
Dear Sir:
He demands censorship or boycott. I don't know whether or not the play "promotes atheism" (what ever that may be) but the truth of the charge has nothing to do with the point. He asks: "Why are plays on personal religious questions permitted to be given at the University?" Why, may I ask, not? Can our unknown friend give any reason that they should not be—other than his own apparent desire to deny free expression to those who happen to disagree with his methods for judging plays? Is atheism, even if his hasty judgment were to prove correct, a crime? Not under the constitution of the United States it isn't—and this isn't Spain! However, such matters of democratic legality do not seem to be in question, but rather a Goebbels-style official who our anonymous benefactor seems to think should be empowered to check the speech and drama department's plays and stamp those found suitable for our benefactor's attention, "Permitted to be Given." It might be hard to find someone of suitable moral caliber for the job; but then, he himself could undoubtedly be persuaded to take it.
When his notion that an attack on a 30-century-old pagan cult undermines his faith, he should have informed us of his church affiliation. Could it be that we have among us a worshipper of Isis and Osiris, ready to rush to arms at the charge that his gods are false? Or is he merely afraid of other members of his church repudiating his views, which surely are not held by many Americans.

Red Cross Seeking Donors For Blood Storage Program
The Red Cross in a final phase to set up a community blood storage program has sent letters to clubs and businesss organizations asking the cooperation of these groups in providing blood.
The co-sponsors of the program.
The co-sponsors of the program are Watkins Memorial hospital, Lawrence Memorial hospital, Douglas County Medical society, and the Lawrence-Douglas county health department.
A refrigerator, purchased some time ago by the Douglas county chapter of the American Red Cross, is now in Lawrence Memorial hospital, waiting to be filled.
The community blood donor program has consisted of a walking blood bank of about 100 persons who are on instant call for any emergency. The refrigerator which will hold about 30 pints of blood is a great asset over the walking bank because the blood may be obtained in a matter of seconds. The refrigerated blood will be mainly type A and O, which includes about 85 per cent of the people', but the walking bank will be continued for rare types of blood.
Persons between the ages of 18 and 60 may be donors. Those between 18 and 21 must have the consent of a parent or guardian. The donor must weigh over 100 pounds and be in good health. It is not expected that any donor will give blood more than once a year.
Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the University health service, said that anyone wishing to volunteer as a blood donor may have his blood typed at Watkins Memorial hospital, any day during regular clinic hours.

Wichita, - (U.P) - Mrs. Wilma R. Lyons built herself a real "Home, sweet home."
It's made of sugar and candy, 9 by 12 by 15 inches.

Senators Want Marshall Plan Spending Cut
Washington, Dec. 9.-(U.P.)-Sen.
Pat McCarran, D., Nev., just back from a three-month tour of Europe,
today recommended a cut of almost $3,000,000,000 in Marshall plan spending in the next two years.
McCarran, chairman of the special senate-house "watchdog" committee which oversees the recovery program, said a steady reduction in U.S. aid is necessary to prevent European nations from becoming so dependent upon the United States that they won't help themselves.
He proposed a cut of $1,889,000,000 next year and of $944,500,000 in the 1952 fiscal year.
Other senators returning from inspection tours in Europe also suggested a foreign aid spending cut—but on a more modest scale.
Three members of the appropriations committee—Senators A Willis Robertson, D. Va.; John L. McClelan, D. Ark; and John C. Stennis, D., Miss—proposed a 1950 cut of about $1,000,000,000. Sen. Burnet R. Maybank D. S.C., another committee, said the program should be reduced "materially" but declined to set a figure.
A total of $3,778,000,000 was appropriated for the Marshall plan in the current 1950 fiscal year. The comments of these senators produced fresh evidence that congress will be eager to trim the program's budget when it reconvenes next month.
But all of the touring senators agreed that the recovery plan has aided economy abroad. There was little if any—sentiment for dropping it altogether.
McCarran said of Europe in a statement that "the standard of living is far from satisfactory, and I am well aware that a complete withdrawal of American aid at this time would result in chaos and a return to the conditions which existed throughout 1946 and 1947."
throughout the world. In those years, economic conditions were so bad that Communism threatened to engulf all of Europe
But McCarran said that "these must be a continued reduction in American aid lest the economies of these countries become dependent upon it that harm will not, by their own initiative, institute the necessary resources to operate within the sphere of their own resources and abilities."
"It would be fatal to continue to give American aid on a permanent basis," he said. "There must be a tapering, off so that the impact, when it comes, will not swamp the whole European recovery.

Curzon Joins Deep Feeling With Brilliant Technique
Clifford Curzon, pianist, lived up to his advance notices Thursday in his recital, which was the third event on the University Concern course. His excellent performance deserved a much larger audience than the scarcely 1,500 persons it attracted.
Since this is only his second Am-4
erican concert tour, the 42-year-
old Englishman is not so widely
known here as in Europe.
By FAYE WILKINSON
Atchison, —(U.P.)—Charles W. Lafferty, 35, principal of Fredonia, Kan., high schools since 1946, was named superintendent of Atchison's public schools Thursday.
The Pershing Rifle's squad members are Donald Ferrell, Richard Matassarin, and Chanin Clark, College sophomores; Richard L. Bradley, engineering sophomore; Frank Geyer, pharmacy sophomore; and Robert Kicktonet, College freshman.
His program was remarkable for its sustained vitality and tonal beauty. The soloist's technical mastery is unquestionable. One was more aware of the musical feeling of the compositions than of the brilliant technique.
Dressed in distinctive uniforms and carrying wooden dummy rifles, a fierce herding Rifles squad will do a novel task of arms entirely by automatic signals.
1,000 Expected To Attend ROTC Military Ball Tonight
Mr. Curzon's program for the most part consisted of numbers from the 19th century romantic period in music, a period in which imagination and expression in music were considered more important than classical form. The pianist effectively copied the style of each choir "the opener" of the operetta Berthemon "Sonata in E Flat, Op. 81a" to the Dohanyn "Concerto Study in F Minor" which closed the program.
The artist accurately painted descriptions of "Scenes of Childhood" (Schumann), a series of 13 short pieces, one of which is the familiar "Traumeral." The Schubert "Fantasy in C. Op. 15" was an attempt by the composer to condense the sonata form into one movement. Mr. Curzon played it with a powerful touch and even the softest, fastest passages were clean-cut.
The mood of the program changed entirely during three numbers by impressionistic composers Ravel Debussy, and Granados. Of this group the Debussy "Fireworks" is most commonly recognized.
Mr. Curzon played three encores "Sonata in C Major" (D. Scarlatti), "Intermezzo, Op. 109" (Brahms), and "Nocturne in C Sharp Minor" (Chopin). The latter number was written when the composer was 19 but was not published until after his death.
Myron M. Thomason, College
The army-navy-air force R.O.T.C. Military ball will be held from 9 p.m. to midnight today in the ballroom of the Military Science building.
Lafferty To Education Post
Lafferty, who will assume his new duties Jan. 1, was named to succeed W. D. Wolfe, 54, who will become superintendent of schools at Lawrence. Wolfe was superintendent here for 20 years.
Lafferty was one of 60 candidates for the Atchison position.
In addition to the crowning of the queen, the intermission will include a hand balancing act by Stella Carney, fine arts freshman, and Robert Kleist, engineering junior; songs by the Delta Gamma quartet composed of Elinor Rice, Geraldine Mahan, oranitetha Krause, and all College freshmen; and a military drill by the crack squad of the Pershing Rifles.
An estimated 1,000 persons are expected to attend the formal dance and see Col. Edward R. Kumpe, professor of military science, crown the queen of the military ball at dance intermission.
The queen has been chosen from 12 candidates named to represent organized women's baseball. Her team organized its intermission dance intermission at 10:30 tonight

Douglas Presents New Health Plan
Washington—(U.P.)—Senator Paul H. Douglas, D., came up today with a substitute health insurance plan that he said would cost "no more than one-third" of President Truman's medical program.
His plan would pay all medical costs over a certain figure that the average family would normally face. It would be financed by a one per cent pay roll tax paid by the worker and employer.
Mr. Douglas said both the administration and the American Medical association have "missed the running battle over medical care."
He criticized the A.M.A. because "they put themslves in the position of opposing every suggestion that has been advanced." And he proposed an administrative sweeping compulsory health insurance program is too broad.
"If they don't support a sensible proposal," he added, "They may find themselves having to take something less sensible."
Under Mr. Douglas' proposal, an average family with an income of $3,000 would be expected to pay five per cent of its income, or $150, plan would pay all expenses over a year of medical expenses. The that under "reasonable standards" of care.
For families making $2,000 a year or less, the dividing line would be four per cent, and for those with only $1,000 income or less it would be $50.
Mr. Douglas said many details still remain to be worked out, but he hoped to have a completed proposal read to introduce during the next session of congress.
India UN Delegate To Speak Monday
Mrs. Sucheta Kripalani, a delegate from India to the United Nations general assembly, is visiting the University and will speak at a convocation at 3:30 p.m. Monday, Dec. 12 in Strong auditorium.
Mrs. Kripalani is the sister-in-law of Dr. S. Chowla, visiting professor of mathematics. She is a member of the Indian constituent assembly (the equivalent of the American Congress). Her husband, Acharya Kripalani, is a former president of the Indian National Congress party, a position which Premier Nehru once held.
At the convocation Mrs. Kripaliani will discuss India's struggle for freedom and the problems that the new state must now face.

Truman Wonders If Eisenhower Wants His Job
Key West, Fla., Dec. 9—(U.P.)-
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower looked
today to President Truman's intimi-
tudes like a man bucking for the
Republican presidential candidacy
in 1952.
This view was based on the recent "hot dogs and beer" social theories of the former army chief of staff and the current president of Columbia university.
Spokesman for the president at the winter White House have ignored General Eisenhower's recent comments, and allowed ignorance as to their content.
But it was known that the president's staff read with more than detached interest the recent New York speech by General Eisenhower who deplored the fact that the American people were mistakenly seeking "the illusion of security."
What General Eisenhower said cut sharply across the basic precepts of the Truman "fair deal." And Mr. Truman's State of the Union message in January probably will take a broad swipe at all opponents of the so-called "welfare state." Press Secretary Charles G. Ross said yesterday the chief executive's message would "fully expound the president's philosophy of government."
The Eisenhower statement that intensely interested the Truman staff was made Nov. 30 in New York:
"We seek the illusion called security. We think too much of luxuries. We want to wear fine shirts, have caviar and champagne when we should be eating hot dogs and beer."
They were also interested in this quotation:
"The definition of a liberal has become a man in Washington who wants to play the almighty with our money."
These words seemed to at least some of the Truman advisers to stack up with recent attacks on Truman policies by James F. Byrnes, former secretary of state and now regarded as a candidate for governor of South Carolina, and Bernard M. Baruch, another South Carolinian who for years wore the somewhat misty mantle of adviser to presidents.

campus humor magazine, will be on sale
Monday Dec. 12 and Tuesday
Dec. 13 of next week, Richard Bar-
ton, editor of the publication, said
today.
Featured articles of the issue, Barton said, will be by Bertha Shore, Augusta Gazette editor widely known for her humorous columns, and Thad Marsh, former instructor of English at the University and who is now at Oxford University as a Rhodes scholar.
"There is no state law against liquor advertisements, particularly the kind we will use," he said, 'so we will run them.
"We know that the Bitter Bird was suspended by the All Student Council with liquor ads in the Bird given as one of the reasons. However, we think the Bird was actually suspended for its poor taste in jokes. Students see liquor advertising all the time in national publications so it shouldn't hurt them to see it in the Soul Owl."
Sour Owl Sale On Monday
Barton also disclosed that the Sour Owl will contain liquor advertisement.
The magazines will be distributed at four campus crossroads — the Union, Strong hall, Marvin hall, and in front of Watkins library.

Simmons Named Rhodes Scholar
Ralph Oliver Simmons, College senior, was named Dec. 10 as one of 32 students to receive Rhodes scholarships to Oxford university in England.
A 21-year-old mathematics major from Smith Center, Kan., Simmons was chosen from among 412 competitors throughout the United States. He was selected on the basis of intellect, character, personality, and physical vigor.
Simmons entered the University in 1946 and has made a straight "A" average in his courses since enrolling. He is a member of Alpha Nu chapter of Beta Theta Pfraternity, Phi Beta Kappa, and president of the undergraduate mathematics club.
He was described by the state Rhodes scholarship selection committee as, "Outstanding for his facility to keep problems and facts in orderly arrangement in his mind. He is logical and calm with a brilliant reasoning power."
"When he was nominated here, we just didn't see how anyone could beat him," Dr. G. W. Smith, chairman of the mathematics department, said "now. We were very pleased to learn that he had been nominated."
The scholarships, valued at 500 pounds ($1,400), are granted under the will of Cecil John Rhodes, British statesman and pioneer, to encourage what he listed as qualities of distinction.
Twenty-seven states and 24 colleges and universities were represented among the new Rhodes scholars. The scholarships run for two years, with a third year possible at the discretion of the Rhodes trustees.
The scholarships were founded in 1903. This year's 32 students bring the total granted thus far to 1,286.

Kansas Educator Speaks Tuesday Before Seminar
James Sellards' orchestra played for the dance. The ballroom was decorated in keeping with the theme of the seal of the National Military establishment. Candles lighted the ballroom.
Members of the speech therapy seminar and their guests will hear an address by Dr. John Jacobs, Kansas director of special education, at 4 p.m. Tuesday at the Faculty Women's Club at 1300 Louisina.
The special education division, set up during the past legislative session, is designed to help children who need individual attention in addition to classroom instruction.
Dr. Jacobs is the seminar's fourth speaker of the year. Dr. Roger Barker, professor of psychology, Richard Schiefelbusch, assistant professor of speech, and Dr. Sigmund Gundle, psychiatrist at Watkins hospital, also spoke before the group.
The speech therapy seminar, a non-credit class, was begun four years ago for teachers and students interested in speech correction. During the four years, seminar members have heard speakers from the fields of occupational therapy, psychology, sociology, physiotherapy, medicine, guidance, and school administration.
The speech of an individual is so closely associated with his personality that a good speech correctionist needs to have knowledge of the related fields, said Miss Margaret Anderson, associate professor of speech.
Business Sorority Takes 10 Members
Miss Anderson, Mrs. Leola Horowitz, instructor in speech, and Professor Schiefelbusch are the speech correction staff members of the department of speech.
Phi Chi Theta, professional business sorority, recently initiated 10 new members at Miller hall.

51 Persons Die As Winter Storms Move Eastward
Chicago, Dec. 12 — (U.P.)—A winter storm today rolled eastward across the midwest on a thousand-mile front, bringing blizzard conditions to the upper Great Lakes region and leaving 51 persons dead from tornadoes, snow slides and accidents on icv highways.
Nine persons were killed and at least 40 persons injured by twisters which skipped across Missouri and Arkansas. Six persons were killed and more than 10 hurt by a tornado near Poplar Bluff, Mo. Arkansas State police listed three dead in north central Arkansas—two at Providence and one at Crossroads. At least 12 were injured by another twister at Hannibal, Mo.
More than 42 other deaths in more than a dozen states were blamed on the storm. Most of these were traffic fatalities resulting from icy highways, drizzle, fog and other motoring hazards. A huge snow and rock slide roared down on top of a car in Spanish Fork canyon in Utah, killing one person and injuring three others.
In Wisconsin, where the temperature hit an all-time Dec. 11 high of 57 degrees in Milwaukee yesterday, the cold wave was expected to bring readings of 15 degrees below zero tonight. Michigan and Iowa expected 10 degrees below. The cold wave will hit Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee tonight, forecasters said, and will extend to the Atlantic seaboard and the Gulf states by tomorrow.
The heaviest snowfall, 11 inches was reported at Lander, Wyo. More than six fell at Crookston, Minn., in the Red River valley. Drifts blocked highways west of Mobridge, S.D. Six inches of snow fell in Southern Manitoba during the Canadian province's first blizzard of the season. All roads were "unsafe for travel," and train and plane travel was slowed.
The Chicago weather bureau hoisted storm warnings over the Great Lakes as a blizzard howled across the Dakotas and the Red River valley into Minnesota. Riding on 60-mile-an-hour winds, the snowstorm blocked all trunk highways in northwestern Minnesota early today. Snow squalls were predicted for Wisconsin, Iowa and Michigan, with flurries extending southward to Missouri, Illinois and Indiana.
Weather forecasts said the storm was diminishing as it moved south and east, and only the extreme North-central part of the country would be lashed by the blizzard which hurled the Rockies yesterday. However, a cold wave in the wake of the storm was sending the mercury tumbling to new seasonal lows.
Snow knocked out dozens of telephone circuits in British Columbia, and the mercury hit 20 to 30 degrees below in Alberta and Saskatchewan. In southern California, citrus growers began smudging for frost. Los Angeles had a low of 41 degrees yesterday, the coldest Dec. 11 since 1932.
There was picnic weather at Victorville, Calif., and four pienickers were crushed to death when a 70-ton granite slab fell on them as they lunched near Dead Man's point. Two others were injured.
WEATHER
KANSAS: Old man winter has descended on Kansas with a roar. High winds of tornado proportions ushered in freezing temperatures.
The forecast today is for fair and continued cold weather with diminishing winds. The high today will be from 15 to 20 degrees. The low tonight will range from five to ten degrees above zero north and ten to 15 degrees south. Partly cloudy and slightly warmer tomorrow.

Research On Many Carillons Done To Make KU's Best
Members of the Carillon committee have visited carilons throughout the United States and Canada to determine the best type of bell and bell manufacturers for the University's 50-bell carilon.
Dr. Kamil Lefevere, former president of the American Guild of Carrillonneurs, and carillonneur at the Riverside Church, New York, visited carillons in the Netherlands and Belgium and submitted to the committee a written report of his findings.
D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts and members of the carillon committee, has visited four outstanding carillons in the United States. These are at the University of Ottawa, Canada, Iliamment at Ottawa, Canada, Princeton university, and the University of Michigan
"I was impressed by the atmosphere created at the University of Michigan by ringing the bells on the quarter and half hours," Dean Swarthout said. "They use the West-minister chimes.
"The committee has been very careful and patient in selecting a

Jack R. McCoy, organist, will present his senior recital at 8 p.m. today in Hoch auditorium. He is a student of Laurel E. Anderson, professor of organ and theory.
He will play selections by several 17th century composers, including "D Major Prelude" and "Fugue" by Bach; "Third Sonata" by Hinde-smith, and "First Symphony" by Vierne.
McCoy received the Pi Kappa Lambada award the past year for the outstanding achievement in music of the senior class in the School of Fine Arts.

After four years of military service, he entered the University in 1946 and took a position as organist at the Westminster Congregational church, Kansas City, Mo. He is now organist at the Country Club Christian church, Kansas City, Mo.
Eugene Jennings Has Piano Studio
Engene Jennings, graduate student, has opened a piano studio at 107 East South Park, Lawrence. He was graduated from the University last June, and is now completing work for an M.M. degree.
The young teacher's home is in Arnold, Kan. where he attended high school. He completed one year as college training before the war served three years in the navy, and returned to the University in 1946.
Since graduation, Jennings has made several public appearances throughout the midwest and south. He recently returned from Nashville, Tenn., where he presented a concert.
What, No Television
Hollywood, Calif.-(U.P.) — Hollywood bachelors, backeted. Richard Rober, have more on their minds than their etchings. They have to worry about getting 'em dusted, too. They have to have to have an electric dishwasher and a television set—or you work up doing the housework yourself.
"One maid that got away really broke my heart." Rober said.
"Then I took her into the den. She peeked into the record cabinet, the movie projector, the radio, the recorder. Then she walked back into the living room and looked around some more.

Trends Follow Raccoon Coat Women Just Follow College Men
Evanston, Ill., Dec. 12—(U.P.)The co-eds' three-dates-before-you-kiss rule is going the way of the raccoon coat on.college campuses, a Northwestern university student survey disclosed today.
More than half of the girls and three-fifths of the boys interviewed in the college magazine, the college magazine, said the rule was either "outdated" or "silly."
The best rule, said the college boys and girls, is good old good sense "and the size of the crowd on the dormitory porch."
Some observers found it easy to link the decline of the three-date rule with the survey finding that more than half of the women students interviewed said that they are "out to get a man."
"If I don't find a husband at Northwestern, I'll transfer to another school," said one determined co-ed.
The men interviewed, on the other hand, didn't seem to have matrimony so much on their minds. A majority of the men questioned do not plan to select wives from among their classmates. They "date for fun," most of them said.
"You can always pick up a wife,' said one young college boy.
Profile talked to about 200 undergraduate on their dating habits.

agreed that the action no longer indicates a binding engagement.
It's merely "social security" for the co-ed. The majority of the men agreed it makes social life less expensive "because a girl who's pinned doesn't expect you to take her out much."
There were, of course, some students who didn't see much sense to the questions anyway.

"The way we dress is purely an expression of the time." Miss Pennyner pointed out. "There is a definite relationship between the feelings of the people and the fashions of that particular era."
As an example, Miss Pennover remarked, take Mary Martin who by her appealing performance in South Pacific has gotten "under the skin of the people" so that she has molded current hair styles. This influence should last a year or two, according to Miss Pennover.
"Exciting presentation of goods set fashions in America," Miss Pennoyer said. "And through high quality manufactured goods at lower prices has made American women the best dressed in the world."

Jayhawkers Defeat Purdue 60-52
The Kansas Jayhawkers, paced by a timely 18-point scoring barrage by guard Jerry Waugh, defeated the Purdue Boilermakers 60 to 52 in their home opener Saturday night in Hoch auditorium before 2700 cage spectators.
Except for a 2 to 0 lead at the start of the contest by Purdue and a 38-all tie early in the second half, Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen's cagers led from one to ten points throughout the contest.
With the game still in the balance and the Jayhawkers leading only 45 to 43 with 7:30 gone in the second half, Dr. Allen's cagers gave the fans their biggest thrill as they "iced away" the game with a 15-point scoring spree within less than three minutes to lead 53 to 43, their biggest lead of the contest. Goals by Dale Engel,
junior guard; Jack Carby, 8-foot seven-inch Clyde Lovellette, six-foot nine-inch sophomore center; and Waugh provided the margin that kept the Jayhawkers safely ahead the remainder of the way.
Kansas, presenting a well balanced first and second half scoring attack, used a 1-2 scoring punch in downing Coach Mel Taube's Purdue club, first Big Ten cage team ever to play in Lawrence. Clyde Lovellette, six-foot nine-inch sophomore center, chalked up 13 points before fouling out with eight minutes remaining.
For the second straight contest, the centers and guards have completely outscored the forwards. Besides Waugh's and Lovette's 31-point total, sophomore Jack Carby and junior guard Dale Engle, accounted for six points each. Captain Claude Houchin, senior guard, collected five first half points and Maurice Martin, senior guard, four points to make a total of 52 points from the backline or post positions, while the forwards could rack up only eight points. In the Creighton game, it was 43 to 12 in favor of the back-line.
Besides taking the game's scoring honors, Waugh limited one of the best offensive guards in the Big Ten conference, Capt. Howard Williams to ten points, with two goals from outside coming late in the contest. Andy Butchko, senior center, and Dave Westfall, junior forward, each racked up seven points. Dick Axness, six-foot three-inch senior forward, and Norman Greiner, junior guard, followed in scoring by each getting six points apiece for the visitors.
The victory gave Kansas an all-time record of three wins against two defeats against Big Ten cage teams and evened the series at 1-1 all with the Boilermakers. Last year Purdue won a 47 to 46 game with the Jayhawkers at Lafayette, Ind.
After Axness gave the Boiler-mate a 2-0 lead in the first minute. Lovellette tied the score at 2-all by tipping in Bob Kenney's shot
A pair of fielders by Waugh and Lovellette and single goals by Houchin, Bill Hougland, and Kenney kept Kansas ahead throughout the game in two of the contest as KU. Lead IV to I. at the mid-point of the first half.
In the final ten minutes of the first half, the Boilermakers rallied to close the gap by outscoring Kansas 16 to 13, to trail 27 to 30 at half-time.
After guard Maurice Martin hit a free throw and Lovellette an overhead 2-hand shot from the jayhawk, put the paw on 10 to 11 lead, biggest of the first half.
Each club continued to match shots and Kansas held a 27 to 20 lead after Houchin connected on a drive-in shot with 3:20 remaining. A free throw by Lovellette and Houglund's field goal closed out K.U.'s first half scoring.
Purdue rallied for seven points during this time on a fielder by Greiner, a goal and charity toss by Axness, and a long 2-hand setshot by Westfall that was in the air as the gun ended the first half.
With 6:30 played in the second half, Lovellette's fourth foul allowed Andy Butchko to tie the game at 38 all.
FOR CHRISTMAS PLEASURE GIVE RECORDS
The tie was short lived as Waugh hit a charity toss about ten seconds later to put Kansas ahead to stay.
At this point the Jayhawkers rallied for eight quick points to hold their biggest lead of the game, 53 to 43.
Engel followed by hitting three straight free throws to give K.U. a 9-point lead again. Axness hit a free throw and Martin Horn a gassed the losers while Wauga connected to close out the Kansas scoring.
In the final minute and a half, five free throws were missed as Butchko, Bill Butterfield, Waugh (2), and Banks failed at the charity line.
Coach Allen and his cage squad will leave Tuesday on a 4-game eastern swing that will match them against four eastern foes, three of which ranked among the top 20 clubs in the nation in pre-season ratings.
The Box Score
Their opening road contest on Thursday night will find them playing last year's tenth ranking team, the University of Cincinnati, in Cincinnati. Ohio.
The Boilermakers hit 10 out of 41 shots in the first half for 24 percent and 9 out of 30 for a second half mark of 30 percent. They had an average of 27 percent. Purdue hit 14 out of 24 charity tosses for a 58 percent mark.
Kansas connected on 34 percent of their shots in each half Saturday and hit 14 out of 25 free throws for a 56 percent mark.

Fur Exhibit Opens At Dyche
The museum of Natural History today opened to the public an exhibit of furs from native furbearing mammals of Kansas and Missouri. The exhibit shows the proper methods of preparing pelts of different kinds of furbearing mammals and aims to increase the financial returns of trappers who view the exhibit. It will be on display daily throughout the fur-trapping season from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and from 1:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sundays and holidays.
Stressing the proper preparation of pelts, Dr. Rollin Baker, assistant professor of zoology, said that superior pelts must be fully prime, correctly skinned, well fleshed and properly stretched and dried. Dr. Baker pointed out that in the trapping season of 1946-47, fur trappers of Kansas received $750,000 from their sales of pelts.
Dr. E. Raymond Hall, director of the Museum, stressed that his income represents 4 per cent interest on a capital investment of more than $18,000,000 and stated that Kansas could easily double the income from the sale of furs by applying improved methods of conservation.
Dr. Hall said that important parts of a better conservation program are leaving some of the animals for future breeding to stock, preserving their useful life and taking furbearing animals only when they are prime, in the legally prescribed trapping season of December and January.
Big 7 Cage Conference Play Starts This Week
By UNITED PRESS
Big Seven basketball teams pondered a tough, 13-game schedule for the week today and looked to the opening of the 1949-50 conference drive in one of the contests.
The Big Seven race will start off officially when Iowa State's Cyclones go against Nebraska, defending champion, at Lincoln Wednesday night. It's the only league match on the card before the annual pre-season, Big Seven tournament in Kansas City, Dec. 27 through 30.
The rest of the games this week will send Big Seven teams against some of the nation's best cage outfits, and in some instances will add a lot of mileage on the travel records.
Missouri and Nebraska are slated for three games each; Kansas State, Iowa State and Kansas are booked for two each, and Oklahoma and Colorado will each appear once during the week.
Kansas State's Wildcats will return home after tonight's game with West Virginia at Morgantown. Their trip took them to Madison, Wis., the Madison Square Garden in New York City, and Buffalo, N.Y.
Kansas State's second game this week will be against Baylor at Manhattan, Kan.
For Missouri tonight's game at Columbia, Mo., against Texas Christian university will open the season. The Tigers will play T.C.U. again Tuesday night, also at Columbia, and then mix with Michigan State at East Lansing next Saturday.
Iowa State's other opponent for the week will be the University of Minnesota at Minneapolis Saturday.
Nebraska, besides the Iowa State game, is matched tonight against Bradley at Peoria, Ill., and Baylor at Lincoln Saturday.
For Kansas the card calls for the Jayhawks to battle Cincinnati U.,

Andrew Butchko, Purdue center,
demonstrated his ability as a football
player if nothing else. Butchko
played end on the Purdue eleven,
and probably hasn't realized he's
switched sports.
At times the referees could have used football symbols when showing the score keepers what type of foul had been committed.
The Jayhawkers took a one point lead with a minute and a half gone in the game and weren't headed until six minutes were gone in the second half. Purdue, at this point, tied the score at 38 to 38.
The referees missed one in the last three minutes of play if no more. Purdue had a free throw. According to the new rule the team getting a free throw in the last three minutes of the game is allowed an "uncontested" throw and then receives the ball outside. The referees Saturday allowed the teams to line up on the free throw lanes, and Kansas got the ball off the backboard after the throw was missed. The referees woke up 15 seconds later on the next free throw by Purdue and Purdue received the ball after the free throw.
Waugh, leading Jayhawker coorer for the game, hit seven out of 18 shots from the field in racking up 18 points. He hit four of six free throws. Bill Houghland hit two for two. Houghtail also hit for a perfect score in the Creighton game.
However, the Jayhawkers came to life with a combination that brought Kansas fans to their feet. With Jack Carby, Claude Houchin, Clyde Lovellette, Dale Engle and Jerry Waugh in the lineup the Jayhawkers quickly racked up 15 points for a nine point lead.
Lovellette hit five out of 14 field goal attempts and Carby hit three out of seven attempts.

Shah Of Iran Goes Skiing
The Shah talked "ski talk" with Lang and paused occasionally to admire the craggy scenery.
Otto Lang, executive director of Sun Valley's ski school, said the Shah showed amazing agility on the steep run.
After the farewell dinner to members of his party who head back for Washington, the Shah put on borrowed bowling shoes and headed for the alley. On the first game he pitched a better-than-beginner-average of 172.
After consultation with his private physicians over an old ankle injury, he donsed dark blue ski-clothing and headed for the basin.

Cleveland Browns Close All America League With Fourth Straight Title
New York, Dec. 12—(U.P.)The Cleveland Browns closed the All-America conference with their fourth straight championship and the Los Angeles Rams probably will need a perfect performance and a well shined rabbit's foot to end the Philadelphia Eagles' domination of the National Football league.
But next Sunday the Rams probably will need more than their big line and aerial attack. They'll also need some luck. The Eagles will invade Los Angeles with probably the best-balanced team in pro football, the greatest ground gainer in N.F.L. history in halfback Steve Van Buren and a perfectly good ixn on Waterfield.
The A.A.C. merged with the 30-year-old N.F.L. Friday and the Browns ended the history of the four-year-old league by beating the San Francisco Forty-Niners, 21 to 7, yesterday in the title playoff at Cleveland. The Rams won the N.FL. western division title by beating a weak Washington Redskin team, 53 to 27, at Los Angeles and will play host to the Eagles in the 1949 championship game next Sunday.
Ram end Tom Fears caught 10 passes to boost his 1949 total to 77, breaking the league record of 74 set by Don Hutson for the Green Bay Packers in 1942. Bob Shaw, the other Los Angeles flanker, tied an N.F.L. record by catching four touchdown passes.
Ram quarterback Bob Waterfield and Norm Van Brocklin, his rookie understudy, beat Washington with a rain of passes. Waterfield threw two touchdown passes and Van Brocklin threw four. Redskin quarterback Sammy Baugh completed his 13th N.F.L. season by throwing three touchdown passes and scoring the other Washington touchdown on a sneak through the line.
The Eagles never have been beaten by a Waterfield-directed team and will be after their second straight N. F. L. title. Early last month, Philadelphia played Los Angeles and outpassed and outrushed the western club to score a 38 to 14 victory.
It was the same old story at Cleveland as the Brownns completed their sweep of all four A.A.C. championships, breaking the all-time pro record of three straight titles held by Green Bay of the National League. Including title games, the Brownns compiled a record of 55 victories, four losses and three ties before the A.A.C. collapsed.
Otto Graham, Marion Motley, Mac Speedle, and the two Jones boys, Edgar and Dub, led the methodical Brownns to victory. Edgar Jones got the first Cleveland touchdown in the first period when he climaxed a 56-yard drive with a two-yard plunge. Motley made it 14-0 when he ran 65 yards through center in the third period and Dub Jones got the last Cleveland touchdown in the fourth period after a 23-yard pass from Frankie Albert to Paul Salata had given San Francisco its only score.
After the game, Cleveland coach Paul Brown announced the retirement of two Browns veterans, center Lou Saban and guard Bob Gaudio, and said he wasn't sure he

Pro Football Leagues Are Now One Happy Family
Philadelphia-U.P.)The National league and the All-America conference ended their professional football war and announced they had combined to form the National-American Football league.
The announcement was made by Bert Bell, N.F.L. commissioner and J. Arthur Friedlund, head of the A.A.C.
The new league, which will begin operating next year will consist of the Baltimore Colts, Chicago Bears, Chicago Cardinals, Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Rams, New York Bulldogs, New York Giants, Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers, San Francisco 49ers and Washington Redskins.
The league will be divided into two divisions—National and American.
Bell was elected commissioner of the new league under a 10-year contract.
Contracts of coaches and players of the A.A.C. extending beyond 1950 are being assigned to the new league. Bell said.
Bell said that Buffalo and Cleveland consolidated their interests to form the new club with its home in Cleveland, although by arrangements between the owners of both clubs the new team will be able to play exhibition games in Buffalo.
The Los Angeles Rams and the Los Angeles Dons also consolidated their interests, while the interests of the Chicago Hornets were purchased by the new league, Bell said.
Emil R. Fischer of the Green Bay Packers was chosen president of the league's national division, while Daniel Sherby of the Cleveland Browns will head the western division.
The merger of the two leagues in effect ended the All-America conference's four-year campaign to set up as a major professional football league.
The conference was founded in 1944 and was promptly taunted by then National Football league commissioner Elmer Layden, who said: "they don't even have a football."
The A.A.C. actually began competition in the 1946 season and played for four years, including this one, always seeking recognition and working agreements with the national league.
The war was costly to both sides. The lack of a common player draft hoisted salaries, and the lack of a common schedule made some teams across-the-street rivals eating into one another's following for attendance.
Last year, after the regular playing season, an attempt was made to get the two leagues together. At the time the All America conference wanted to hold out for two separate leagues while the National league insisted that the two most profitable A.A.C. franchises, San Francisco and Cleveland, merge with the N.F.L.
The stumbling block apparently became Baltimore, which would have been eliminated under that plan. Settlement of the Baltimore differences with Washington franchise holder George Marshall ended the war.
Bell said that the new league will be formed officially on Dec. 19, day after the N.F.L. championship game in California.
At the meeting, representatives of the 13 clubs in the new league and those which were absorbed also will work out draft arrangements concerning new and reserve players.
The status of all players of both the N.F.L. and the A.A.C. who are not on the active list of the 13 teams in the new league will be determined at a league meeting Jan. 19. Site of the meeting has not been determined, Bell said.
Bell said that Horace Stoneham, owner of the New York Baseball Giants, was the guiding figure behind the creation of the new league. Stoneham arranged for Bell to meet with Friedland and George Weiss, vice president and general manager of the Yankees. The contacts were made in New York and on Wednesday Friedland came to Philadelphia to complete the plans.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
MONDAY. DECEMBER 12. 1940
The Editorial Page-
Are You Ready?
University women are faced with the reality that they cannot all marry wealthy young men. Some of the men they marry will become well-to-do as the years go by. Others may only become moderately "well off" as this world goes.
At any rate they may have to do without a maid and a cook for a few years before the man of their dreams can afford those things.
Now the chief reason a man comes to the University is to provide himself with an education that will enable him to earn a living after he graduates. While doing that he picks up some incidental knowledge about Plato and Rousseau, but his primary aim is to gain information and practice that will put him a little bit ahead of the man who didn't come to college.
A good many women are at the University with much the same idea—to prepare for a job. (They always seem to call it a career when talking about a woman.) Others come for a liberal education that will make them more intelligent and cultured. While here they generally meet a young man that becomes their husband.
Since most of the men are seriously preparing themselves for the work ahead of them, why shouldn't it be as necessary for the young woman to prepare herself for her role as the housewife?
The University would do a great service to the human race and the happiness of the young couples leaving it if every woman who is graduated is required to take a course in cooking and one in sewing. Such a requirement would go a long way to get that young woman ready for the life that she will have to live for the next few years. Too few of them are ready.—M.LR.
'Small Things'
It is yet undecided where the new fieldhouse will be built, and one practical soul suggests that it be placed near the stadium to be used as a parking lot during football games.
A K.U. instructor who claims to hate athletics in any form, says that when he is chancellor, he will abolish football, put a roof over the stadium, and convert it into a gigantic bar.
Panic was rife after the Dyche hall fire when it was rumored that a large number of standard examinations were destroyed, thus rendering a great many quiz files useless.
The "Spinster Soliloquy"
Laws don't like me—
Doctors do.
What is the reason why
This is true?
I'm kind to the lawyers and
Give them A—
A pre-medic says, "No
Theme today"
If he turns one in—
He may get a C—
And yet pre-medics
Are fond of me.
The laws are bright and
A young doc's dumb;
He never can seem to
Make things hum.
Yet I can't say much to
A young pre-law,
While a medic and I can
Sit and jaw,
For an hour or more, de
Lightedly!
What may the cause of this
Difference be?
I've thought it all out, and
The reason, of course, is
I've had more operations than
I've had divorces.

Posters Advertise KU InHigh Schools
The first Statewide Activities poster board has left Lawrence on its way to 18 high schools in Eastern and Southern Kansas.
The purpose of the boards, which will eventually reach all sections of the state, is to familiarize high school students with K.U. Pictured on the boards are athletic and administrative heads of the University and several scenes on the campus.
Cities on the initial route are: Otawa, Garnett, Iola, Humboldt Chautauqua, Charlottetown, Coffeville, Caney, Sedan, Cedarvale, Arkansas City, Winfield, Wellington, Newton, Cottonwood Falls, Osage City, and Burlingame.
US Blood-Giving Record Awarded To Kansas Town

A total of 156 pints of blood were donated by as many residents in only one day. The blood is sent to the Wichita blood center and used in all hospitals in the area. Ft. Riley held the previous record of 155 pints in one day.
Art Museum Holds Exhibit
Modern interior decorating is the subject of the latest display in the Museum of Art. The exhibit, which is planned to show new modes with both old and new materials, will be on display until Wednesday, Dec. 21.
Exhibited in the north gallery is furniture of both modern and antique style. Dr. John Maxon, director of the museum, said the purpose is to contrast new furniture and the contemporary trends. Included in the display is an Eanes chair of bent plywood, which is a copy of Libyan campaign chairs used by officers in Libya.
Contrast is shown by antiques with new fabrics and finish. Oriental rugs, and early 19th century paintings on plaster can be easily demonstrated the variance in styles.
Paintings of Herbert Fink and Dwight Burnham, instructors in drawings and paintings, can be seen on the walls. Ceramics of Sheldon Carey, associate professor in design, also are used in the exhibit.
In the center gallery is an exhibit of modern and historic clothing. Four dresses, which were designed by students in the home economics department, are exhibited. Around the wall are sketches of the dresses and the historic costumes from which the designs were inspired.
Much of the material is displayed by the Modern Center in Kansas City, Mo., and the Miller Furniture store in Lawrence.
This display was arranged by Patsy Harris and Bonnie Cunningham Arrowsmith, both of whom graduated in 1949, and Marilyn Swenson, College senior.
Kansas Unemployment Is Up
Topeka,—(U.P.)—Kansas unemployment was up slightly in October, but still below the national average, John Morrison, director of the state employment security division, has announced.

This Big Business General Runs Air Force His Way
Scott Air Force Base, Belleville III.—(U.P.)—The air training command clicks from the top down.
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
The guy who makes it click is handsome, affable, Major General Robert W. Harper. I don't use the word "guy" with any disrespect for two-star rank, because Bob Harper considers himself one of the boys—and he is.
You could tell that when he took the rostrum at headquarters here to open a public information conference attended by officers from the 17 air bases in the command.
The 49-year-old general runs the biggest business in the air force in a most unorthodox manner. He figures he can get more out of his men with a friendly smile and a warm handshake than with a scowl and a slapping down—not that the general can't get rough when the occasion demands. He certainly can, and does.
Bob is a constant source of amazement and often bewilderment to me. Hardly a day goes by that he does not shock some rank in Washington.
He doesn't like the word "channels."
"I'm not even sure I know what the word means," he says.
He's probably the greatest cutter of red tape in the world. He can write a letter, with multiple copies, when there is a telephone handy.
"If I have to go through a dozen different sources to get a simple job done—I'd just as soon forget about the job," he says.
When the general had his headquarters at Barksdale Air base in Shreveport, La., he found the routine of getting a memo to Washington unthinkable. It went like this—if you like channels. He'd write a letter addressed to the capital. It would have to go to a base in Tex.-based oilless it would rest in some cubbyhole weeks or days. Then it would come back to Barksdale to an office the general could see out of his window.
It might sit there for awhile longer before it ever went on its way to Washington. All by airmail, of course.
He scissored through all that nonsense by picking up the phone. Like as not he would shock some general out of his swivel by informally opening the conversation with:
"This is Bob Harper in Barksdale. I've got a little matter here that won't wait for the mails. Let's settle this over the phone."

The general's door is always open. When I dropped in on him expecting to have to do a lot of heel clicking he waved me past a couple of aides and waved me to an overstuffed chair.
"Call me Bob," he said. "Everybody else does. And what's your nickname?"
That is not to say that the 1,000 officers, airmen and civilians on the staff here do not follow the order of service discipline. There is as much yes sirring in his command as there is also more informality than anywhere else. After the correct salute, more often than not the bars are down.
On the surface, the entire operation seems technically precise and simple. Actually, the air force training is the most nerve-shattering of all of our force operations. But with Bob at the controls the operation is simple.
You may get the idea that the general sold me a bill of goods. He did.

Political Wall Around Printing State Directory
Topeka. —(U.P.)-The only Democrat secretary of state in Kansas history said recently he was having a hard time winning approval for the printing of a state directory his Republican predecessor had published biennially for nearly a quarter century.
Secretary Larry Ryan, who won his office a year ago, said he would make a formal request to the director of the Kansas budget for the printing of the directory which two years ago cost approximately $2,200.
He said informal inquiries about getting it printed had brought no results.
W. G. Hamilton, state budget director, said "as yet no directory priming request has been received by me."
He said the usual $4,000 a year appropriation was made the secretary of state's office for its full printing budget and that if the directory is not printed the only reason would be because there isn't sufficient remaining funds to do it.
Mr. Hamilton said there was "a lot of conversation about it (the directory) during the last session of the legislature by the printing committees." He added that Senator Will Beck, R. Holton, and others wanted to know if there was a statutory provision requiring the publication of the directory. The group was informed there was none.
The Democrat secretary, only major state elective official of his party, commented to reporters to keep it (the directory) out for some reason."
Larry Ryan said he had the $400 appropriation for the directory's link.
He said he had been informed that the directory, which ran 140 pages last time, would cost about 20 cents more per copy to be downloaded from his computer out by the late Frank J. Ryan, Republican secretary of state; cost about 30 cents a copy with some 7,500 copies of it being distributed.
The directory should be sent out early after the first of the year, he said, and already we have done some preliminary work on it. He estimated that in usual times it would take three months to compile and print in the state printing plan. He said he was informed the printing plant is behind in its work, but added, "this directory is needed by schools throughout the state and should be given a high printing priority."
Experiments Show Music Aids Study
Everyone enjoys hearing his favorite type of music, but few students realize the beneficial effects of soothing music while studying history, economics, or calculus.
The proper music, played while the student studies, will act as a mild stimulus to concentration. It helps him concentrate on the subject he keeps him awake," said Dr. E. Thaiamnankan, professor of music education.
He said that while some high school students may be able to study to the accompaniment of Dizzy Gillespie or Harry James, this type of music is generally anything but helpful to study.
"Rhythm, volume and tempo are very important factors. The best music for study is light classical or semi-popular music. Any piece which is highly rhythmic or tends to make the student move around should not be played. Music should be in the background. It should be smooth and unobtrusive, just above the threshold of hearing," he said.
Experiments in the music education department showed a definite improvement in work speed and a positive impact on music was played, Dr. Gaston said.
Eighty-five per cent of the land in the United States is used for agriculture.

Laughton Gives Readings To Appreciative Audience
Bv KATHLEEN O'CONNOR
Performing before a small but highly appreciative audience, Charles Laughton, star of stage and screen, presented an excellent program of readings Sunday night in Hoch auditorium. He read selections from James Thurber, Aesop, Shakespeare, the Bible, and Thomas Wolfe.
The account of Mr. Pickwick's Christmas from Charles Dickens' "Pickwick Papers," the story of the fiery furnace from the book of Daniel in the Bible, and forest scenes from Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" came alive as Mr. Laughton moved smoothly from one selection to the next.
During his two-hour performance, Mr. Laughton seemed to enjoy his reading as much as did his audience. Part of the time he stood with his head thrown back and his hands gently jingling a few coins in his pockets. The rest of the evening he leaned against a four-legged stool set on a small table close to the edge of the stage.
He went through the entire acting repertoire. He chuckled, spouted, ranted, rasped, sang, moaned, brayed, and even spit as he portrayed his characters.
Dressed in a blue suit and slightly rumpled blue shirt, Mr. Laughton walked onto the stage with his arms full of rather worn books. Setting them on another small table, he selected a book, leaned against the stool, and began a gallery of paintings, and the tale of Little Red Riding Hood, both the children's story and the revision by James Thurber.
His next selection included two fables from Aesop and others by James Thurber. From these he made a swift change to Thomas Wolfe's "Train and the Moon," which he read with considerable feeling.
"Now then," he said, as the applause died away, "I thought we might tear a slice off of Dickens. That's not quite the right word, a hunk of Dickens?" He interrupted himself to read the poem by Andrew Marvel called "To His Coy Mistress."
Final selection before intermission was a reading of the Christmas party from the "Pickwick Papers." With agility he skipped from the portrayal of one character to the next, carrying his audience with him.
After a brief portrayal of Captain Bligh from "Mutiny on the Bounty," Mr. Laughton recited the chorus from Henry V. His second Shakespearean recitation was taken from "A Midsummer Night's Dream," during which he used his book only to wave as he alternately bellowed in the part of "Bottom," and cooled in that of the fairy queen.
From the Bible he selected two proverbs and Psalm 139, which he wrote. The book is titled Two Great Actresses by Francis Jammes, French noet and novelist.
His final selections were Lincoln's first political speech and the "Gettysburg Address."
AWS Will Give Job Advice
Women who have held interesting jobs in past summers will conduct a forum open to all University women at 4 p.m. Tuesday in the Pine room of the Union building.
The forum is part of an Associated Women Students project to provide information on summer jobs. All women students were asked to fill out questionnaires on any summer employment they might have had. Employers are not directed for information concerning type of work, wages, and hours. Various summer resorts have also submitted data.
All facts which have been gathered will be on display in the Associated Women Students' office, 220 Strong hall, between 9:30 and 11:30 a.m. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
Janice Horn, fine arts sophomore, chairman of the summer jobs project said that employers could not supply definite information until the first of next year. Dolores Dean, College sophomore, is in charge of the display.
11 Take Orals For Ph.D. Degrees

B. Q. Morgan Talks On Faust
Goethe's Faust is the only literary work we have that deals with the two fundamental questions of the universe, the meaning of life, and the integrity of the universe. This is the belief of B. Quincy Morgan, professor emeritus of German at Stanford university. He spoke at a meeting of University students in Fraser theater at 10 am. today.
"The school of humanities has as its object the cultivation of man as compared to the biological animal." Professor Morgan said. Professor Morgan will be the speaker on Thursday, p.m. Tuesday in Fraser theater. He will be on the campus today, Tuesday. and Wednesday.
"The greatest greatness in Goethe's Faust must be personally found." Professor Morgan said. "It writing took Goethe over 60 years. In it enough metrical devices are used on which to write a text-book. It is the only great literary work that we have which the author deliberately withheld from publication until after his death."
Iraq Engineer Visits This Week
Dr. Hantush, who received his doctorate in engineering from the University of Utah in June, was granted a visa extension of six months to study ground-water problems and techniques in this country. He will work with V. C Fishel, head of the federal geological survey at the University, this week.
Dr. Mahdi S. Hantush, groundwater engineer from Iraq, is visiting the University this week to observe how the state and federal geological surveys conduct the groundwater program in Kansas.
Dr. A. Nelson Sayre, geologist in charge of the ground-water branch of the U.S. geological survey in Washington, D.C., arranged a tour of several ground-water divisional offices for Dr. Hantush. He has visited offices in Carson City, Nev.; Sacramento and Long Beach, Calif.; Phoenix, Ariz.; Albuquerque, N.M.; Austin, Texas; and Norman, Okla. From Lawrence he will go to Denver, Colo.
Spending one week in each of the offices, Dr. Hantush studies reports and data in the office files. He also spends some time with various group projects. He conducts field trips, observing methods of studying ground-water resources.
After completing his tour, Dr Hantush will return to Iraq to research on ground-water conditions and problems in that country.
Cheating Af KU Is Discussed By Presidents
De we have a cheating problem at K.U. If we do, what can be causing the dishonesty, and what can we do to correct it?
These were problems discussed at the presidents' breakfast given by Student Union activities for presidents of all organized houses and many University activities. Lorraine Ross, College junior, acting for the Associated Women Students' senate, led the discussion.
The report of Indiana university on their cheating problem was used as a basis for the forum. Feeling that definite steps needed to be taken at Indiana university, the board of standards and the Associated Women Students conducted a survey to determine the factors which affect cheating.
Next they set out to educate the university women for honesty by instructing them on methods of study during final week. They also explained how to use files and the advantages and disadvantages of cheating.
Faculty assistance was solicited Professors were asked to vary their quizzes from those given in previous years and to ask logical questions fitted to material which would be tested in preference to trick questions.
The fact that it isn't fair to put certain students on the spot with their friends by asking them to type final questions was also stressed for the professors.
Guests at the breakfast seemed to agree that K.U. had a cheating problem although L. C. Woodruff, dean of men, felt that the problem was greatly magnified by rumors which spread about the campus.
The student's interest in a grade instead of knowledge was mentioned as the basic cause for much dishonesty. Miss Margaret Habein dean of women, felt that our system of grading was to blame for this. She said that students in the law school, where they have the honor system, "don't cheat because they really want to learn, and students who want to learn don't have to be graded."
Robert Bennett, first year law student, argued that there was no substitute for grades as a means of recording a student's work and stimulating competition. He also mentioned the fact that many employers will not hire a student unless they have adequate knowledge of that student's college record.
The antagonistic attitude of some professors was suggested as another cause for cheating, especially those who breath down your neck while you take a quiz, or refuse to give you a good grade unless you are majoring in their field. Noble facts that a number of professors who must have been aware of cheating in their classes but chose to ignore it.
Before anything can be done at K.U. about cheating, the presidents agreed that some sort of survey would have to be taken to analyze our particular problem at K.U.
Dr. Weinaug Speaks To Chemistry Club
Retrograde condensation was discussed by Dr. C. F. Weinaug, professor of petroleum engineering, at the regular meeting of the Chemistry club Thursday afternoon at Bailey Chemical laboratories.
The speaker described phase behavior of oil and gas hydrocarbons under high pressure and showed a film picturing the conditions that exist in petroleum reservoirs where seepage is to 10,000 pounds per square inch.
Preceeding the meeting, a picture was taken of club members who are American Chemical Society associates. The picture will be published in the A. C. S. journal, "Chemistry a n d Engineering News."
Coffee and doughnuts were served to members during the meeting.
UN Delegate Gives Reasons For India-Pakistan Split

Speech Contest Tryouts Scheduled
Preliminary tryouts for the campus problems speaking contest will be held at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday in Fraser theater. Any University student except a previous winner may enter the tryouts.
The first speeches are to be four to six minutes in length. Topics may deal with any current campus problem. A list of 24 suggested topics was obtained in the speech office, 117 Green hall basement.
Final tryouts will be at 8 p.m.
Thursday in Fraser theater.
50 Wheat Crop Not In Danger
Manhattan, Kan. — (U.P.)—Plant pathologists and entomologists at Kansas State college said recently there is no cause for alarm about wheat mosaic in the 1950 Kansas crop.
They said, however, that fall conditions for the diseases are favorable if the virus causing mosaic is present.
The statements were included in a dispatch prepared for release by the Kansas State College news bureau at Manhattan.
It was based on the opinions of Dr. Hurley Fellows and Dr. R. H. Holliday, the head of the sociology department derived from a study of Kansas wheat conditions.
Dr. Fellows commented that yellowed and dead leaves found on early-sown and volunteer wheat in Western Kansas are not due to mosaic but to leaf rust and a heavy, rapid growth that drained the soil of moisture and nitrogen.
Dr. Painter said he found seven different species of aphids in Western Kansas wheat fields during three surveys made this fall.
He said corn leaf aphids was the most widely distributed species and that crown aphid was abundant in some fields. The Greenbug Aphid is known to carry wheat mosaic.
Cello, Piano Recital Given
BY FAYE WILKINSON
AN interesting program of music written for cello and piano was presented Sunday by Alberta Stuhl, pianist, and Raymond Stuhl, cellist, in a School of Fine Arts faculty recital. The program compelled attention despite its length.
Mr. Stuhl is assistant professor of cello and Mrs. Stuhl is an instructor in piano. They have been members of the faculty since 1935. In recent years they have been appearing in film and television by states to promote student interest in stringed instruments and string ensembles.
The program contained two sonatas for cello and piano, the melodious "Sonata, Op. 58" (Mendelssohn), and the shorter, brighter "Sonata, Op. 102, No. 1" (Bethoven). Horns, Stuhl played crisply and capably and Professor Stuhl played with good tone and technical ease. Both achieved an excellent ensemble effect.
The second portion of the recital was a group of cello solos with piano accompaniment. The Boccherini "Rondo" from his string quintet and "Tarantelle" were audience pleasers, "Tarantelle" is a technical showpiece by a noted composer for cello. David Popper.
An impressionistic number in modern idiom, "Duo," was well received. It was written especially for the Stuhls by Markwood Holmes, professor of composition at Pittsburg State Teachers' college.
This is the opinion of Mrs. Sucha Kripaliani, a delegate from India to the United Nations general assembly, who will speak at a special convocation at 3:30 p.m. today in Strong auditorium. She will speak on problems of India since the split between India and Pakistan. Mrs. Kripaliani is a sister of Mrs. Sarvadam Chowla, whose husband is a visiting professor of mathematics at the University.
The natural heartbreak caused by the division of a country was aggravated by the British when they withdrew from India in 1947-48, Mrs. Kripalani said. It has been increased by Pakistan, which has felt that should have received more territorial rights under leased India for several centuries before the arrival of the British 200 years ago.
"India has no desire to expand," she said. "Pakistan is like a youth in a house who thinks only of himself and not of the whole family. He disrupts the household, yet the family doesn't want to hurt him."
Regarding the spread of Communism in Asia, Mrs. Kripalani stated, "India does not want Communism."
Professor Chowla, who was ent at the interview, said, "We just got out from under the domination of one country and we don't want to come under the domination of another."
A member of the Indian constituent assembly, Mrs. Kripalani said that the new constitution, which will be adopted Jan. 26, contain most of the main rights found in the United States' constitution, including the adult franchise.
Mrs. Kripalani arrived in the U.S. shortly before the U.N. general assembly convened this fall. It was the first time she had left her country. India always sends a woman in the delegation to the general assembly, she said, and women today in India can rise in their fields without having to combat prejudice.
"Educational facilities in India are increased," she said. "Under the British only the upper classes received formal education, on the unsuccessful theory that it would "trickle down" to the masses. Today teachers are being trained as rapidly as possible.
"Even without education most of the people in villages are interested in literature, philosophy, and similar fields and discuss them among themselves. The highly refined culture of the ancient civilization has been passed down over the centuries, and though the villagers can not read or write, they can recite the masterpieces of Indian literature. One often finds in India people who are cultured and yet completely illiterate," she said.
Refreshments Out For AWS Meetings
A genuine interest in the Associated Women Students and not in refreshments will have to be the motive behind attendance at the A.W.S. house from now on.
The women recently voted to discontinue the serving of refreshments and to hold every other meeting in the Union building. Alternate meet- will be held in organized houses, as they all have been in the past.
The A.W.S. house meets every Tuesday and is composed of one regular representative and one alternate from each organized house. Meetings have always been open to all, and are wished to attend and in addition the proxicants are each being asked to elect permanent representatives.
The women voted the changes because they felt that such a large group could create quite an expense and refreshments. Also, it would be difficult to accommodate the large group in some of the smaller houses.
Edris McCarty, education junior has been elected secretary of the house, filling a vacancy filled by the resignation of Donna Heller, College senior.

STUDENT NEWS PAPER
Ward Reveals Red Clumsiness In Mukden Trial
Aboard Lakeland Victory Off Taku Bar. Dec. 13—(U.P.)—Two members of the party of Angus Ward today described the Muked people's court trials of the group as a "clumsy imitation" of Eastern Europe's recent Communist trials.
Vice Consul William N. Stokes, 27, Staten Island, N.Y., said last month's trial of nine Japanese and Chinese, charged with serving an "American spy ring" in Manchuria, obviously "followed a prearranged plan."
The use of the "public confession" device familiar in other Communist trials was the key plan of the Mukden judge - prosecutor's "beating" trial, according to the American consulate staff member who was forced to sign the statement accusing Ward and others of guilt in the case.
"I attended the court but was not allowed to take notes. Later when I read a press release on the trial issued by the Communist News agency, I noticed the trial was an exact enactment of the release."
Stokes was an enforced witness at the trial which actually brought conviction and deportation of the American consulate staff for directing the alleged ring "even though its consulate member was indicted and we did not know any of the accused persons."
sees "They used threats, mainly. No physical violence.
Franco Cicogna, 31-year-old former Italian marine in the Tientsin Italian concession, who was arrested with Ward and three others, was forced while critically ill in an unheated jail to write the mass "confession."
"They said 'you are a prisoner. If you don't cooperate, we'll never let you out. We know your wife (a white Russian) is so powerful China is the most powerful country in the world, the most powerful island of nobody."
"coffession.
"I began suffering chills and fever October 28—the fourth day of solitary confinement," Cicogna said. "That day, a series of two to seven hour grillings began."
Cicogna said he finally was persuaded to sign a "mild criticism" of Ward's conduct.
5. We are afraid. "They tried to get me to write an accusation of Ward," Cicogna said.
the second day the same grilling continued, Cicogna said, without food or medical attention, and in a cold room.
The next day, Ciogna said he learned the paper was destroyed and a strong accusation of Ward and others of the Mukden consulate staff was substituted.
WEATHER
lures the rest of the average 2 to 5 degrees below normal. Lows tonight probably will hold in a 10 to 15 degree range. Increasing cloudiness tomorrow will replace the current clear skies and allow temperatures to rise above freezing during the day all over the state. Highs will be 35-40 degrees in eastern Kansas.
KANSAS—The state's temperatures the rest of the week will average 2 to 5 degrees below normal.

Morgan To Lecture On Faust Today
B. Quincy Morgan, professor emeritus of German at Stanford university, will speak on "Goethe Today and Tomorrow" at 8 p.m. today in Fraser theater.
This will be the third lecture in the present series of lectures in the Humanities. The public is invited. No admission will be charged.
40,000 Veterans File For Loans
World War II veterans filed 40-000 applications for G.I. home loans during October, the Veterans administration said today. This was the highest number received in any month since November, 1947.
Veterans today seem to be experiencing less difficulty in obtaining low interest mortgage financing for homes purchased with loans guaranteed by the government.
A combination of factors, the V.A. said, are possibly responsible for the upturn. Chief among these was the large amount of mortgage money supplied through the bank to a government corporation authorized to buy G.I. loans from private lenders.
Contributing factors included an increased willingness on the part of private investors to finance mortgage loans at four per cent interest, the maximum rate chargeable on GI. home loans, and a greater availability of lower priced homes.
Some 13,700,000 veterans are still eligible for loans and they have nearly eight years left in which to use their loan guaranty rights.

Miss Tatjana Plume, the D.P. student who is being brought to the University by the K.U. Westminster fellowship will probably not arrive before spring, Dr. John H. Patton said. She will live with Dr. and Mrs. Patton upon her arrival in Lawrence. A native of Latvia, Tatjana is now living in displaced persons camp in Austria. She will be the first displaced person to attend the University.
"Competitive athletics builds character," Charles "Bud" Wilkinson, head football coach at the University of Oklahoma, told approximately 400 persons at K.U.'s annual football banquet, Monday night. Members of the Varsity and freshman football squads, and the K.U. Quarterback club heard Wilkinson say that football builds character, but it takes character to play football.

Athletics Builds Character, Wilkinson Tells Players
Kansan photo by Bob Blank
The straight "A" student, who is 6 foot 7 inches tall, played on the 1948-49 Beta Theta Pi "B" championship basketball team. His main interests are classical music, model airplanes, observing birds, and sports.
"I will have to attend Oxford two years to get a degree of arts degree in physics," he said.
Simmons is president of the Mathematics club, a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Beta Theta Pi, and has served on the Kansas Relays student committee the past three years.
The 21-year-old mathematics major will study physics.
He is a personal friend of H. L. "Larry" Miller, winner of the award in 1947.
Simmons is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Simmons, Smith Center.
After being introduced by Frank McDonald toastmaster and chairman of the Lawrence Quarterback club, Mr. Wilkinson paid respects to Jules V. Sikes, Jayhawk coach. The Oklahoma coach, who was recently selected "Coach of the Year," in a nationwide poll, informed the audience that he had cast his vote for the Kansas coach the past two seasons.
"There has never been a time that we need collegiate competition more than we do today," Mr. Wilkinson said. "People are trying to remove competition from the everyday life of America. Man proves himself in competition," he continued.
The dynamic, young exponent of the "split-T" formation is the first coach in the Big Seven conference to appear as the honored speaker at a rival team's banquet.
E. C. Quigley, athletic director, presented the Ormand Beach memorial trophy to Bud French, who was selected by his teammates as the season's outstanding player. French, who has played four years of Varsity football for the University, ended his career with the establishment of a record ground-gaining performance for one season by a Kansas player. He ran a total of 521 yards, and was a consistent performer on defense, particularly against a passing attack.
The trophy was founded by the widow of Ormand Beach, a K.U. fullback who played in 1930, '32, '33 Mr. Beach, who was an All-American and All-Conference fullback, was killed in an oil tank explosion in Sarnia, Ontario, in 1839.
The award, which was given for the first time Monday night, will be a permanent fixture in Kansas football. The trophy, on which the navarre e winnere when he dived, will remain in possession of the athletic department. Each year's recipient will receive a replica of the original.
The 56 members of the Varsity squad were presented sport coats from the Quarterback clubs. Don Fambrough, freshman coach, introduced the first year Jayhawkers individually, while Sikes identified the entire Varsity team with individual applause.
Jack McCoy Gives Recital
Bv FAYE WILKINSON
Jack Riehard McCoy, organist, was warmly received at his senior ceremonial Monday. He played on the University organ in Hoch auditorium.
McCoy was very graceful at the organ. He manipulated the numerous stops and pedals with good co-ordination. His playing did not have the power for which some of his numbers seemed to call, nor did it have the depth of interpretation the music demands. This, however, should come with experience.
McCoy, who is now organist at the Country Club Christian church, Kansas City, Mo., presented first a group of 17th century compositions. It is difficult to "play one's audience into a program," especially a seldom-heard organ program, but "Muzete" (Dandrieu) and "Benedictus" (Couperin) drew an appreciative response.
The prelude of Bach's "Prelude and Furge in D Mayor" was played vigorously. It was perhaps the best number on the program.
Modern India Is Now Facing 3-Fold Problem
The major problems of India since it was freed from British rule in 1947 were discussed by Mrs. Sucheta Kripalani, a delegate from India to the general assembly of the United Nations, at a special convocation Monday in Strong auditorium.
She listed India's problems as the division of India into the two states of Pakistan and India, the worry over which way the 565 Indian states would go, and the writing of the new constitution. To provide background for her discussion she traced India's history from the first important uprising against British rule in 1857 to the present day.
Mrs. Kripalani is a sister-in-law of Sarvadaman Chowla, visiting professor of mathematics at the University. She is a member of the Indian constituent assembly, which has recently completed a new constitution for India. Her husband, Acharya Kripalani, is a former president of the Indian National Congress party, India's dominant party.
"India is a big country with big problems of poverty, ignorance, ill health, shortage of food, and ill-teracity. she said. The average income in India was 30 per year, and at the most only 20 per cent of the people are literate.
"The No. 1 problem of the new state was the need for a constitution. On Nov. 26, 1949, the constituent assembly completed a federal constitution inspired by those of Britain and America. This will become effective Jan. 26. 1950."
When the British withdrew from India in 1947, she said, they left two problems: the split between the Moslems of Pakistan and the Hindus of India and the lack of any central authority. The 565 Indian states, which had been ruled by the fabulous mahārās of India under British supervision, were left free to go to either side or split off and become independent states.
"Over free India hung the ominous menace of an India dismembered," she said. "Each maharaja had a chance to defy everything and bid for complete independence." She attributed the avoidance of this situation to the statesmanship of India's leaders and to the recognition of maharaja Maharajah as a symbol of democracy and the need for unity, and explained that more than 500 of these states acceded to India and the rest to Pakistan.
The problem of the northern state of Kashmir remains, Mrs. Kripalani acknowledged. In Kashmir today there are three kinds of troops, those of India, Pakistan, and some "free" troop of tirbesmen brought in by Pakistan from across the northern mountains. Now, although the maharaja acceded to India, India is willing to withdraw its troops and let Kashmir, which has many Moslems, hold a bilepisite. The snag in this, she said, is that Pakistan will withdraw its troops but will take no responsibility for getting the tribesmen to leave.
Student Injured In Auto Accident
Mrs. Hariette Yeckel, graduate student in the College, was admitted to Lawrence Memorial hospital at 9:50 today for treatment of injuries suffered in an auto accident near Reno in Leavenworth county.
Dr. Raymond L. Pendleton treated Mrs. Yeckel for head contusions and minor injuries. He said he would keep her in the hospital for observation and release her this evening or in the morning.
Mrs. Yeckel was riding with her husband, George H. Yeckel, graduate student in psychology. Dr. Pendleton said he didn't know if Mr. Yeckel was injured.

KU Cagers Face Cincinnati On First Stop In East
A 13-man Jayhawker traveling squad, accompanied by Coach E C. Allen and Dean Nesmith, trainer, left this afternoon for Cincinnati, Ohio, the first stop on a 4-game eastern swing, that will provide the roughest test of the 1949-50 cage season.
[Image content missing, so the text cannot be accurately recognized.]
Five sophomores are included in the Kansas party that Dr. Allen will send against the University of Cincinnati in their opener Thursday night in Cincinnati.
The following players are making the eastern swing: Buddy Bull, Jack Carby, Dale Engel, Harold England, Claude Houchin, Bill Hougland, Bob Kenney, Blien hard, Clydlove Lettey, Guy Mabry, Maurice Martin, Gene Peterson, and Jerry Waugh.
After playing the Cincinnati Bearcats, the Jayhawkers move on to Pittsburgh, Pa., for a Saturday night engagement with Duquesne, ranked 22nd by one 1950 pre-season rating.
The third and most severe tes will be against the Holy Cross Crusaders on Dec. 20 at the Boston Garden in Boston. Kansas will be facing probably the finest college player in the East when they try to secure the famous shootout captains Bob Cousy and Frank Offring, considered by many the best one-two offensive punch in college ranks.
The final road contest will pit the Jayhawkers against Coach John W. Bunn's Springfield College club on Dec. 23, in Springfield, Mass., baseball's birth place. Coach Bunn was a former Kansas cage star under Phog Allen and won a total of 10 letters while compiling an outstanding athletic record at the University.
Coach Allen and his squad will return to Lawrence on Christmas morning to practice later in the day before leaving for Kansas City, Mo., and the Big-Seven pre-season tournament. The tourney opens on Dec. 27 with Oklahoma meeting Iowa State and Kansas meeting the Kansas State Aggies in first night games.

Halftime Review
The 20th century is our century. Most of us were born midway through the first half—sometimes in the 1920's or early 1930's. Most of us will live to see it end-2,000 years after the birth of Christ. The first half of our century is almost over. We have all felt the events of that first half—the two great wars, the tremendous strides of science, the great ups and downs of material prosperity and depression. Mankind has probably gained more and lost more in the past 50 years than in any other equal span of time in history.
So far, the 20th century has given us the assembly line and the atomic bomb; penicillin and Adolf Hitler; the prosperity of the 1920's, the poverty of the 1930's and the utter destruction of the 1940's.
For the first half of the century, our generation has been the innocent bystander. The second half will be our responsibility. Yes, it's the trite old thesis of many a commencement address—the world is yours," but isn't it true, after all? Isn't it about time we stopped looking upon events as inevitable and beyond our control? "War," we have admitted, "is senseless," and have always added," but what can be done about it?" War is not the result of unknown factors working against us. War is the result of mankind's own stupidity and selfishness. And something can be done about it. Individually, man is probably less cruel than he was in the Dark ages—collectively, he is still a brute. Yet where can the line be drawn between man as a group and the individuals which compose the group?
The secret which could lead us out of our primitive ways has been with us for nearly 2,000 years. Perhaps it's so big we can't see it before our eyes. It simply reads:
"And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise."
Life Begins At 65
With the current talk of the "welfare state" ringing in our ears, we might well consider the industrial pension plans.
The United Mine Workers introduced the overall pension into the scene of heavy industry in 1946 behind a smoke screen of Biblical quotations from John L. Lewis. It has since become the big issue with which organized labor has confronted the industry the past several years. The steel workers took up the torch and have since won a victory with the terms of armistice being a weaker carbon copy of the demands made by the coal workers in 1946.
Pension demands are essentially the same in every branch of organized labor. Benefits for aged workers, benefits for disabled workers, benefits for families, for orphans, for this and for that—these are the terms of the programs. There is no questioning their moralistic righteousness, but even the most humane liberal must question the economic validity of them. Everyone recognizes that successful operators in many fields don't suffer from mass malnutrition as a class, but the fact remains that operators will no longer stay in business if they don't glean some profits from their investments.
With pension expenses gnawing into the operators' profit and the specter of an overall federal pension program behind the door if labor and industry bicker too long, the much maligned "welfare state" cannot be laughed off. —Bill DeLay
New Alumni
In less than two months for some seniors, and a little more than a semester for the rest, all the aspects of the complicated process of being graduated from the University will, in most cases, be eagerly faced.
Those who will receive their degrees in February will not be involved in much of the formality in which the June graduates will be expected to participate; however, there is one question every senior will be asked to decide—whether or not to join the Alumni association upon graduation.
There is no denying the fact that graduation always incurs extra expense. And when joining the Alumni association is mentioned, the first thought is, "Oh, no—not something else to pay for!" and the decision more often than not is to exclude everything not absolutely required.
Nevertheless, the Alumni association, like every other organization, has both its good and bad sides to be studied before making a decision. The liability side (always the worst first) seems to be that it costs $2 a year to belong or $60 for a life membership. And that seems like a lot of money to many.
But there are some benefits, too. For one thing, the membership fee includes a subscription to the Graduate magazine, which is issued nine times a year and includes news of the campus and news of former University students. This enables the 1950 graduate to keep up with both the University and his former classmates. It reinforces the tie with K.U. and its functions.
Whether the scales tip more toward the asset or the liability side is for the senior to decide—he must determine whether $2 (a sum which has undoubtedly disappeared from him many times in a more frivolous manner) is too high a price to pay for lifetime affiliation and interest in his University.

Dear Editor
Basketball
Dear Sir:
Apparently our K. U. Athletic department is more interested in the almighty dollar than it is in student support of student athletic teams. The commercial angle seems of primary importance to the athletic office. Why not give the basketball team back to the students?
Hoch auditorium, capacity 4,000 was not filled for the Purdue game. And goodly number of those present were not students. Yet the Pinkerton detectives on the gates were kicking every fifth or sixth student out of the line Saturday night—because he happened to be using the ticket of a student not caring to attend. These tickets, for which admission was denied, have been paid for. The situation as to each of these tickets is that one student has given his right to admission to another student. And why, may I ask, shouldn't he, except for the arbitrary policy of the money conscious Athletic department?
The Athletics department thus secures the revenue on all tickets isused, then excludes students using tickets of uninterested students, and proceeds to resell the seats thusleft vacant. for a few more dollars.The basketball team should be primarily for the benefit of students—those desiring to see the games. Only after these have tickets should the public be admitted.
If the office feels that its nontransfer policy is the only way, then why not give the students first opportunity at seats which are now going to the public, at a reasonable student price?

One-Act Plays With Student Casts Will Present Christmas Theme Dec.14
Eleven students have been chosen for the casts of two one-act plays to be given with a third, "The Long Christmas Dinner" at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday, in Fraser theater.
The plays are "The Gift of the *Magi*, an adaptation of the O. Henry story by Joseph Free, and "There's Something I've Got to Tell You," by William Saroyan.
the cast for "The Gift of the Magi" is Don Harling, College senior; Katy Coad, William Means, Kay Peters, and John W. White, Jr., College sophomores; George Upham, fine arts sophomore, and Raymond Peerv. College freshman.
For the second play, cast members are Twila Wagner, education senior; Warren Andreas and Sally Garland, College sophomores, and Mary Beth Moore, College freshman, Milton Commons, graduate student, will direct the newly cast plaus.
"There's Something I've Got To Tell You" was written as a radio play. In the University production the audience will see the scenery, but will only hear the actors.
Admission to the plays will be 25 cents a person. Tickets may be obtained at the door.
But first, what is the explanation for the non-transfer policy? Why shouldn't a non-interested student give his ticket to an interested student fan?

ASC Favors Making Tickets Transferable
The All Student Council took a strong stand in favor of basketball tickets being made transferable among students and redefined smoking areas in University buildings at a meeting Tuesday.
L. C. Woodruff, faculty advisor to the A.S.C., when asked to explain why the basketball tickets have been ruled non-transferable, replied, "The low student price is based on the number of cash-paying customers that attend the game. Students are paying only about one-tenth of the actual expense of the games by allowing seats to be sold to cash-paying customers."
The controversial ticket issue was presented in the form of a resolution by Donald Giffin, College junior. The resolution was passed with only three members voting in opposition.
Students receive a set of blue or red tickets to one-half of the season's basketball games. Activity cards are punched at a certain number for the red series and a different number for the blue series. Detectives at the auditorium entrance check the color of the tickets against the activity card.
Robert Bennett, first year law student, called the Council member's attention to a "letter to the editor" which appeared in the University Daily Kansan on Tuesday. The letter, written by Alfred Burger, senior law student, asked, "Why shouldn't a non-interested student give his ticket to an interested student?"
Walter Brown, Jr., College junior pointed out that there were empty seats at the Purdue game. "There weren't enough students at the game to give the team a proper representation," he said.
George Hartman, business senior, introduced a bill for the first reading that would abolish salaries for three A.S.C. officers. Hartman was one of two members who voted against the bill providing $12 monthly to the president, secretary, and treasurer of the Council.
Ernest Friesen, Council president, closed the discussion stating, "I'm sure that students would like to see something done and not see any more empty seats at basketball games."
Marvin Martin, second year law student, was appointed to inform University officials of the Council's position and attempt to have the non-transferable ruling changed.
A ruling was passed listing new places in which students may smoke. Arthur Ford, smoking committee chairman, said that smoking will now be allowed in the following places:
Strong hall, rest room on third floor and basement hallway; Snow hall, all stair landings instead of the entire building; Lindley hall, landings of south and west stairways; Marvin hall, basement smoking room; Hydraulics laboratory, lower floor; Electrical Engineering laboratory, inside east entrance; Mechanical Engineering laboratory, west of steam boiler; Haworth hall, basement hallway and anatomy hallway; Watson library, green reading room of west wing, Journalism building, press room; Fraser, north stair tower; Hoch auditorium, lobby only; Military Science building, reading room; and anywhere in the Union.
The new smoking rules replace the rules made by the Men's senate in 1939. Ways are being studied to enforce the regulation.
K-Book, Catalogue
Make Error In Date
The K-book and the catalogue are in error about the resumption date of classes following Christmas vacation," said James K. Hitt, University registrar.
The K-book and the catalogue erroneously have classes resuming Monday, Jan. 2, 1950.
The Christmas vacation begins
6 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 21 and
classes resume 8 a.m. Tuesday,

10 Contestants To Speech Finals
Ten finalists were chosen from 37 contestants in the campus problems speaking contest Tuesday night in Green hall.
They are Betty Whaley, education senior; Robert Carl, journalism senior; Mary Lou Lane and Jerome Mandl, education juniors; James Gurley, Win Koerper, and Orval Swander, College sophomores; Evan K. Wilson and Richard Copley Harris, 2nd year law; and Jerome Lysawed, College freshman.
The speeches criticized University teaching methods, the campanile project, the quiz grading "game," and campus politics. They depicted the number of organizations on the campus, made fun of University "red tape," and objected to "the large number of restrictions at K.U."
Judges of the preliminary contest were E. C. Buehler, professor of speech; Kim Giffin, assistant professor of speech; William Conboy, Gene Courtney, Mrs. Nina Drennan, Harold Harvey, and Don Palmquist, instructors of speech; and Miss Darlene Van Biber, assistant instructor of speech.
The finals will begin at 8 p.m.
Thursday in Strong auditorium.
Judges will be Mrs. Natalie Calder-
wood, instructor in English; Allen
Crafton, professor of speech; E. R.
Elbel, professor of physical education;
College B. Lawson, dean of the
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences,
and William R. Terrell, professor of

Study Of Goethe Offers Guidance And Inspiration
Inspirations and lessons can be gained from the life of Goethe for now and the future, B. Quincy Morgan, professor emeritus of German at Stanford university, told approximately 400 persons in Fraser theater Tuesday.
It was the third lecture in the present series of lectures in the Humanities.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was an 18th century German poet, philosopher, and statesman. The Goethe Bicentennial celebration is being held this year.
"From Goethe, the man, one can derive guidance and help in the guidance of his own life," Professor Morgan said. "One should learn to master his body, measure his mind, and put them into productive use.
Professor Morgan examined Goethe from the standpoint of the man. his works, and his ideas.
Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, introduced Professor Morgan.
Goethe's contributions to history are many and varied. "Part of the greatness of Goethe lies in his multiplicity," opinioned Professor Morgan. "Goethe is matched by no other poet in history in his three-fold mastery of poetry—lyric, dramatic, and narrative." Faust alone would make Goethe one of the four great writers, Homer Dante, Shakespeare, and One of the chief obstacles to popularizing Goethe is the difficulty in pronouncing his name Professor Morgan said iokingly.
Henri Peyre, chairman of the department of French at Yale university, will be the next guest speaker in the Humanity series on Tuesday, Jan. 10. Professor Peyre will speak on "Existentialism and French Literature Today."
Professor Morgan discussed the "Lied" as an art form before faculty members and their friends Tuesday in the Museum of Art.
Professor Morgan, who has composed music, sang "Lieds" and played his own piano accompaniment to illustrate his points.
300 Will Perform In Vespers Sunday
Nearly 300 persons will participate in the All-Musical Christmas vespers with tableaux to be given at 4 and 7:30 p.m. Sunday in Hoch auditorium. The vespers, sponsored by the School of Fine Arts, will be the 102nd in a series extending over 27 years at the University.
Medical Man Wins Fellowship
Dr. Charles Frederick Kittle, resident surgeon at the University medical center, has been awarded the Murdock fellowship in surgery.
The Murdock fellowship in surgery is made possible by the income from a gift of $15,000 from Mrs. Murdock, widow of Dr. Samuel S. Murdock, Jr.
Dr. Kittle, whose interests in medicine are general and theracic surgery, received his doctor's degree at the School of Medicine of the University of Chicago in 1945 with honors in surgery. He interned at the hospital there in 1945 and 1946.
From 1946 to 1948 Dr. Kittle was on active duty in the navy. He became a resident surgeon at the medical center in 1948. He is a member of Alpha Omega Alpha and Sigma Xi.
Dinner-Party Today For University Club
The University club will hold a Christmas party at 6:30 p.m. today in the Kansas room of the Union, said Howard Wisman, vice president of the Lawrence National bank and chairman of the party committee.
After dinner entertainment will include songs by Miss Devonne Doxie, assistant professor of voice, accompanied by Miss Allie Conger, associate professor of piano.

Carlyle H. Smith (center), assistant professor of design, explains the art of making pebble jewelry to Norma Walker (left), graduate student, and Norma Jean Gutherie (right), fine arts senior.
The making of pebble jewelry is a current project among 21 students majoring in jewelry and silversmithing at the University, the only school in the country which offers such a major. The idea is a new one installed in the curriculum this semester by Carlyle H. Smith, assistant instructor. Any pebble they wish and, without altering the stone, construct a piece of jewelry by creating a free form design to be made from silver.
"Students learn to judge the limitations of their material in this way," Professor Smith explained. "There is no limit to what can be done. I believe the pebble jewelry has good sale possibilities, especially among buyers who crave the unusual."
Protects completed by the art students include rings, pins, pendants, bracelets, and small boxes—all made from sterling silver with ordinary reebles used for the settings.
THE WEATHER
After near zero readings again early today, the state weatherman forecast lows tonight of 5 to 10 degrees in the northwest, ranging to 15 to 20 in the southeast.
Topek*, Dec. 14—(U.P.)—Another cold night is ahead for Kanssens.
The annual Christmas observance will be preceded by a double brass quartet playing on the balcony of Hoch auditorium and chimes ringing from the tower of Dyehe. Members of the double quartet are Donald Schmidt, educator senior Charles Chase, Chair of the Wood business junior; Jerry Abercrombie, engineering sophomore; John Carlos, George Francis, and Charles Jeffery, fine arts sophomores; and Jack C. Walker, fine arts freshman.
L. E. Anderson, professor of organ and theory, will open the vespers service. He will play "Les Cloches" (LeBegue - Anderson). Candles will be lighted by two small boys, Larry Hodges and Albert Palmerlee.
A string ensemble will play "Ave Maria" (Bach-Gounod). The ensemble is composed of Waldemar Geltch, professor of violin; Raymond Stuhl, assistant professor of cello; Mervyn Anderson, harp; and Professor Anderson, organ. John Ehrlich, '48 now chairman of the cello department at Drake university Des Moines, Ia., will also play with the ensemble.
The University A Capella choir of 110 voices, directed by D. M. Swarthout, dean of the school of Fine Arts, will sing the candlelight proce sional, recessional, and four numbers. The numbers are "On Christmas Night" a Sussex carol arranged by Vaughan Williams: "Rise Up, Shepherd, and Folder," a Negro spiritual with tenor solo by Colin Campbell, fine arts sophomore; "Sweetly Angel Choirs Are Singing" a Slovakian carol arranged by Martin Luvaas; and "Sweet Little Boy Jesus" (John Jacob Niles) with soprano solo by Kathryn Walter, fine arts senior.

University Atom Smasher Will Aid Physics Study
Bv EDWARD J. CHAPIN
A three million-volt stream of positively charged atom "bullets" will be shot at nearly one-tenth the speed of light to chip off the sides of other atoms in the University's atom-smasher in Blake annex A. L. W. Seagondollar, assistant professor of physics, explained today.
The machine has only begun to function the pass two weeks and is still operating at relatively low voltages. It is estimated that a half-million volts is the highest reading to date, but it is expected that the maximum will be rescued in the next two months.
"We're not going to do research on atom bombs or anything connected with them. Rather, we hope to add to the general fund of nuclear physics," said Dr. Seagondollar, who has directed the building of the atom-smasher since 1947.
Dr. Seagoddollard smiles when the wierdiest-shaped machine with its maze of control panels and circular insulating rings is called an atom-smasher. Nuclear physicists prefer the less dramatic term "electrostatic generator." Nevertheless, the machine was designed to penetrate the layers of atoms in the battery in a way that they give off various kinds of radiation. Special detecting equipment records the result on photographic film.
To smash the target atoms, the machine delivers an electrical charge riding on a fast-moving belt, like an escalator carrying persons from one floor to another, or an aluminum ball. A high positive voltage is built up. This voltage is used to drive another stream of charged particles down an insulated tube.
"One of the unexpected qualities of the machine is its ability to attract hair." Dr. Seagondollar said. "If your hair suddenly begins to point toward the machine—you are too close."
At the end of the tube, the reactions of target atoms are watched with panels of instruments. While the machine is operating, many dials are read through telescopes.
Four-foot sparks jump off the high voltage shell where millions of volts are built up. The sparks are losses since they escape from the high-focus beam. To lessen the voltage losses, the machine is moved into a circular insulating tank of air inside the high pressure chambers around the central tube that carries the focused beam also cut down voltage losses.
One of the difficulties in controlling the radiated X-rays is that the rays will not reflect from a surface, but penetrate all materials. Lead and concrete are efficient insulators when thick enough.
Exposure to the radiation from the machine is dangerous. Geiger count tests will be made in the area around Blake hall to determine the amount of radioactivity. Frank E. Hoecker, associate professor of physics and Biochemistry at University Health service, will work together to make the area safe.
"We believe the walls of Blake hall and the annex will give sufficient protection to students in Blake," Dr. Seagondollar explained. The more concrete is needed, we will make the walls thicker."

FOR STUDENTS OF SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING
CARBON MONOXIDE... FRIEND OF MAN Thanks to high-pressure synthesis, it now leads a useful life
To the man on the street, carbon monoxide is just a poisonous gas that sometimes causes tragic deaths when it escapes from the exhaust of an automobile or from a poorly tended furnace.
Outside of the chemical field, few people are aware that, properly used, it is a very real friend of man. In the last 25 years, during which catalytic
THE HARVARD PRESS
and high-pressure chemical techniques have been highly developed, carbon monoxide has become a keystone of industrial synthesis.
A. H. Emery, Jr., M.S. Ch.E., M.I.T., '49 ana M. J. Roedel, P.D. Org., Michigan '40 inspecting a high-pressure batch reactor taken from the shaker tube assembly after a run to make 3,5,5-trimethylhexanol.
Scientists have found that under the proper conditions of high pressure and temperature, carbon monoxide, in combination with other substances, can be converted to a variety of useful products. These or their derivatives range from an acid used in tanning hides to the sparkling plastics in milady's boudoir.
You'd hardly associate carbon monoxide with anti-freeze. But at temperatures from 300 to 450°C, and under pressures of 1500 to 15,000 pounds per square inch, carbon monoxide and hydrogen unite to form methanol—a colorless liquid from which is made "Zerone" anti-rust anti-freeze for automobiles. From methanol and carbon monoxide as raw materials, ethylene glycol for "Zerex" anti-freeze is produced.
Plastics and Anti-Freeze
Methanol is used also to make a large number of compounds such as formaldehyde and methyl methacrylate. The former goes into urea and phenol-formaldehyde plastics for light fixtures, radio cabinets, hardware, utensils, and electrical equipment. The latter is the basic material for "Lucite" acrylic resin with its many uses.
TORRANCE

The reaction of methanol with carbon monoxide leads to acetic acid, which is a well-known industrial chemical. By the same synthesis but substituting ethanol for methanol, propionic acid is obtained. From it come the "Mycoban" sodium and calcium propionates that retard mold and rope in bakery products.

pressures. However, the possibilities have by no means been exhausted. Just recently, for example, chemists have been learning how to use carbon monoxide in "up-grading" certain petroleum hydrocarbons to give interesting alcohols. One of these, 3,5,5-trimethylhexanol, is prepared from diisobutylene by reaction with carbon monoxide and hydrogen.
College-trained men and women interested in working in this field at Du Pont may share in discoveries as outstanding as any yet achieved.
Because of the wide scope of Du Pont's activities,young graduates in many different fields have opportunities to select the careers that prove to suit them best as their abilities and interests develop.

Mt. Oread Is Slowly Eroding And Quietly Going Downhill
By FRANCIS KELLEY
Mt. Oread is slowly being eroded and surface materials are being carried into the valley, Dr. J. M. Jewett, geologist of the state geological survey, said today.
"Many houses built on the side of Mt. Oread have cracked basement walls as a result of the slipping nature of the weathered Lawrence shale." Dr. Jewett said. "In the past, there have been instances of city water mains breaking. I strongly suspect the breaks were caused by the slipping shale.
"Three members of Oread limestone capping the hill rest upon about 130 feet of Lawrence shale. This shale is micaceous in composition and has a strong tendency to slip when wet."
Micaceous shale, he explained, generally is sandy shale containing minute mica particles that, because of their shape, are natural lubricants.
Near the surface this shale "weathers," changing in texture from the action of the sun, wind, and water. Although firm where it is protected from the action of weathering and filtering waters, this sheet of weathered shale slowly creeps down the slopes of the hill.
As the clay minerals in the relatively loose surface material becomes wet and dried they swell and shrink. This swelling and shrinking tends to promote "creep" on slopes and exerts pressure on foundations and basement walls.
For many years, school officials have realized the need for accurate information in the construction and maintenance of University facilities. Dr.Jewett said.
"Recently, the ground water division of the state geological survey was called upon by the University administration to make test borings on the hill and to study the drill cuttings." Dr. Jewett said.
"It tested sites for the new addition to Corbin hall and for the proposed Memorial campanile. It also tested for the addition the past year of a new generator for the power plant at the University.
"A commercial core-drilling company has taken samples from the site of the proposed Physical Science building south of Robinson gymnasium."
State architects and engineers are fully aware of the slipping characteristics of the surface material on the hill and take it into consideration in planning and constructing new University buildings, Dr. Jewett believes.
Elaborating on the earth formation of Mt. Oread, Dr. Jewett explained that beneath the Lawrence shale is a layer of Haskell limestone. Outcroppings of this limestone are to be seen near Haskell institute. Under this limestone there is approximately 75 feet of shale and sandstone.
"All of these rock layers have a slight inclination to the west," Dr. Jewett said.
"Mt. Oread is a part of an escarpment, an eastward-extending prong between the valleys of the Kansas and Wakarusa rivers."
East of a north-south line drawn approximately through Wichita and Abilene are the Osage plains. This area is marked by east-facing bluffs or escarpments winding from north to south across the state.
"These Osage plains hills are the physiographic expression of westward-dipping layers of rock,"
Dr. Jewett said, "Eroded edges of resistant rock beds form the bluffs. Mt. Oread is one of these edges."
Dr. Jewett pointed out that this erosion is a continuous process.
"Blue Mount, the hill near Eudora, and Mt. Oread were undoubtedly a part of the same escarpment thousands of years ago," he said. "Wind and weather have worn away their connecting rock strata until today they are two separate hills."
In time, Dr. Jewett believes, Blue Mount will disappear completely and Mt. Oread will gradually recede westward a considerable distance.
But students at the University today won't need to worry about Mt. Oread disappearing. They won't be around many thousands of years from now when it happens.
Faculty Attends Education Meeting
Six members of the administration and faculty attended a regional meeting on general education at Washburn college in Topeka Dec. 9 and 10. The meeting was sponsored by the North Central association.
- Sketch by State Geological Survey
Those attending from the University were: L. C. Woodruff, dean of men; Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College; Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean; A. C. Edwards, associate professor of English; J. Eldon Fields, associate professor of political science; and Maude Elliott, associate professor of Romance languages.
The above cross-section sketch of Mt. Oread, drawn by Mrs. Grace Muilenberg of the state geological survey drafting department, shows approximate depths of material layers making up the hill.
The top layer, from one to 3 feet of weathered shale and limestone, is continually creeping down the slopes of Mt. Oread, damaging house foundations and basement walls. This weathered shale is eventually carried into the Wakarusa and Kansas river valleys by rain and wind.
Beneath the weathered shale and limestone are layers of Oread limestone, Lawrence shale, and Haskell limestone with their approximate depths indicated at the left in the sketch. The overall height of Mt. Oread is estimated at 180 feet. The sketch is not drawn to scale.
Interviews Find Opinion
Determining racial prejudice through the non-directive interview was discussed by Mrs. Louise Cochrane, instructor in sociology and western civilization, at a meeting of the Civil Rights Co-ordinating committee Monday night.
Mrs. Cochran, while working on her master's degree in sociology, experimented with the non-directive interview on her sociology class. This method enables the observer to get a cross-section of opinion on a given subject. By getting the group into a free discussion, the members' actual views may be ascertained.
Several constituent groups of the C.R.CLL. will use Mrs. Cochran's cases to determine the feelings of their members.
George Floro, instructor in sociology, was chosen as faculty advisor to the group. The next meeting will be held Monday, Jan. 9.

Kochan Speaks To Weslev
"Crisis running. Time Unlimited.
Continuous Showing," should appear on the American theater Marquee. Dr. Paul Kochan, professor at Baker university, told Wesley Foundation members at their Christmas banquet Sunday.
"We are living in a time of crisis," said Dr. Kochan. The present generation cannot take a back seat and count on the "next generation" to mitigate the situation. Our best efforts and deeds must be passed to the next generation.
What is the individual's part in our complicated, hustle - bustle world? To do his best at his particular job, Dr. Kochan stated, is every man's task. Courage to defend his convictions of right should be developed by the individual. Results may not be a measure of a man's success, he said. The question should be asked, Dr. Kochan points out, "Has the individual done his best at his job?"
Men must have less interest in financial and material things. The bank may fail, Dr. Kochan pointed out, but God will not. A personal relationship with God, he said, is essential to individual success. Security should arise, Dr. Kochan feels, out of the knowledge of the love of God for man. A knowledge of this love was Christ's gift to us.
Others who participated in the program were: Roger Price, College junior; Betty Brown, fine arts sophomore; Mary Elizabeth Kerr, education junior; Paul Nelson, education junior; and Paul Nelson, junior in the School of Pharmacy.
Dr. E. F. Price, professor in the School of Religion, gave the invocation.

Keep your inner self in harmony with your outward actions Dr. Mendall Taylor; professor of history at the Kansas City Nazarine Theological Seminary, told Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship members at their Christmas banquet Dec. 9.
A "Christian" life is a "homogenized" life, Dr. Taylor believes. The individual's actions must manifest Christ within him, and his actions must be consistently Christ-like. To acquire such a "homogenized" life, he said. Dr. Taylor pointed out the individual must attach himself to Christ in an intimate relationship. Only through such a relationship is it possible for an individual to maintain essential harmony between the inner self and outward manifestations.

Coach Allen Is On Road Back Up
Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, 64-year-old dean of American basketball coaches, has launched his thirty-third Kansas basketball season.
Starting two years ago to rebuild a team which had harbored two double All-Americans in Charlie Black and Ray Evans, also an All-American on the gridiron, the perennial coaching wizard still will be climbing the comeback trail this season.
Dr. Allen is all smiles these days and he has a right to be. Freshman coach Dick Harp, 31-year-old former Jayhawker cage great, passed along to him this year one of the best freshman squads in Kansas cage history.
This year's sophomore crop probably owns more physical qualifications than any sophomore group in the country. This crew will combine with holdovers to give the Jayhawkers their tallest club of all time. With experience, these sophomores should give Coach Allen some of the finest material he has ever had to work with.
During his long tenure at Kansas, Allen's clubs have won 474 games against 168 losses for the best long-time record in the country. His clubs have won or shared 20 championships.
Dr. Allen's 32 years of coaching basketball at Kansas has brought much fame to himself, his teams, and to the University.
In Dr. Allen's 42-year all-time coaching record, his teams have won 652 games while dropping only 181 in winning a total of 27 titles. No where in the athletic world can these remarkable long-time records be duplicated nor are they likely to be in the near future.
When asked to pick his top Kansas team, Coach Allen said, "It is difficult to pick out the outstanding team among my '23, '36, '43 and '46 undefeated conference clubs, but the 1940 team can tackle it. The ability to overcome treasured odds did aid vancing to the N.C.A.A. finals." Indiana University defeated Kansas in the finals, 60 to 42.
This club consisted of forwards Dom Ebling and Howard Engle-lander, the Milkman's son, Bob and guards Ralph Milken and Diek Harp, now Allen's assistant.
"In achieving national fame, this team owned no 'big men' yet had the necessary team work and qualifications to rank as one of the greatest K.U. teams of all-time," Dr. Allen added.
Kansas downed Missouri in their final conference game 42 to 40 to gain a first place tie with Missouri and Oklahoma. In a play-off, Oklahoma downed Missouri while Kansas eliminated Oklahoma 45 to 39, followed by a thrilling 45 to 43 overtime win over Oklahoma A. and M. to gain a spot in the N.C.A. A. play-offs.
After downing Rice, Engleman's now famous corner shot, with only a few seconds remaining, enabled the Jayhawkers to down favored Southern California 42 and荣誉的 finals. Harp was a standout in this game with his terrific defensive play.
With Allen's name at the top of the list of the coaches' hall of fame, the University of Kansas holds a high position in all-time rankings of the Helm's Athletic Foundation. Dr. Allen's players hold fourteen

positions on the all-American teams selected by the foundation for the past 30 years. This total is the same number of spots held by Purdue and Notre Dame, and second only to the Kentucky Wildcats.
The Jayhawkers are only one behind Kentucky in two other departments, with two national championship teams, and two men named player of the year.
Coach Allen's clubs were rated national champs in both 1922 and 1923, winning 33 of 36 games in those two years. In winning 20 championships, he will lead all college team third of the four clubs ever to finish the conference race undefeated.
Dr. Allen's efforts toward such innovations as rotation of the center jump, fan-shaped backboards, and the 12-foot basket are nationally famous. One of his accomplishments was an almost perfect in hiding basketball its first show in the 1986 Olympic games in Berlin.
Allen has not limited himself to building title winners but has made many other contributions to the game through research. He was one of the founders of the National Basketball Coaches' association and for many years served on the National Rules committee. He was instrumental in founding the N.C.A.A. tournament, the first of which was held in 1938.
Several of Dr. Allen's former cagers are now highly regarded basketball coaches in college ranks. Most prominent among these are Adolph Rupp, basketball mastermind at Kentucky; Forrest
"Frosty" Cox, Colorado; Dutch Lonborg, Northwestern; and John Bunn, Springfield College, Springfield, Mass., a team the Jayhawkers play on Dec. 23 as the final game of a 4-game eastern swing.
Two years ago Phog turned out his third book entitled "Phog Allen's Sports Stories", a stream of yarns and anecdotes concerning many of the famous figures in sports and especially his former cage players at Kansas. His first two volumes, "My Basketball Bible" and "Better Basketball" both have been widely used as cage textbooks everywhere.
Blind Dog Has Own 'Seeing Eye' Dog
Seattle, Wash. —(U.P.)— A blind dog's "Seeing Eye" is back home again.
Butch, a brown boxer owned by Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Thomason, disappeared two weeks ago. He was the eyes of the Thomason's other dog, who was blinded two years ago when struck by a hit-and-run driver.
A neighbor reported seeing a boy leading the boxer away on a wire leash. A fisherman returned Butch, said the boy had given it to him.
Without Butch, Chick had been confined to her hearth-rug in the Thomason's home, unable to cope with the dangers of a darkened world.

Corbin, Theta Phi Alpha Tie In Women's IM Basketball
Tuesday's games substantiated many opinions of team strength and early speculations as to division winners. In a total of six games there were only two "runaways" and no forfeits.
Sigma Kappa swamped Newman, 35 to 5, outplaying them all the way. The half-time score stood 21 to 3 for Sigma Kappa. This gives the winners two victories, one by forfeit. Newman two losses, one by forfeit.
Barbara Burnham displayed good defensive work for Sigma Kappa, and Patricia Watson was their leading forward. Frankie Waits paced the victors with 15 points.
The Corbin Jays stayed ahead to win 29 to 23 despite a last quarter rally by Delta Delta Delta. Their first-half lead was 20 to 12. Second half playing and scoring was more evenly matched. Corbin has two victories now and the Tri-Delts one loss.
Carolyn Salome and Chloe Warner, who also was top scorer, scored the Tri-Delt forwards. For Corbin, Shirley Mickelson and Frances Pence played a fine game. Geneva Fleshman starred in defensive action. Miss Mickelson topped the scoring column with 17 points.
Temruth had a tight squeeze past Miller at win 24 to 23. Behind one point at the half, they had to come back in the last seconds to overcome another one-point Miller lead. The teams were well matched and the outcome was in doubt all the way. Temruth now has a tie and a victory and Miller two losses.
No one Ternuth forward did the main scoring as did Betty Clinger who poured in 18 points for Miller. The entire forward section played well for Ternuth, but Betty van der Smissen paced their game. Dolores Dolson and Louise Sanborn sparked the guards.
Kappa Alpha Theta staged the evening's second runaway and smothered Chi Omega 42 to 11. They led 29 to 6 at the half. The Theta's swarmed over their opponents and shot almost at will. They now have two victories to their credit but the Chi Omega's break even.
Lorraine Ross, who led scoring with 18 points, and Sydney Ashton starred as forwards for the Theta's. Defensive play was sparked by Suzanne Neff and Nancy Seaman. Leota Godding paced Chi Omega's team as forward.
Kanza and Alpha Chi Omega waltzed through a very slow game before Kanza won 8 to 6. The score was tied at two and two at the half. The playing of neither team was outstanding. Patricia Perkins scored six points for Alpha Chi Omega. They now have two losses and Kanza is even with one each.
Corbin Hawks came back after 12
16 deficit at the half to tie Theta
vhi Alpha 29-all. The game was
very close and tied most of the time
with the lead going back and forth.
Both teams now have one loss and
a tie.
Janet Lull and Anita Phillip paced Corbin in both play and scoring with 12 points each. Jane Koelzer's action as guard and that of Peggy Wayman, who made 14 points as forward, led Theta Phi Alpha.

Jayhawkers Will Meet Tough Foes In East Swing
Phog Allen will take his young Kansas basketball club through the next two weeks on a wicked four-game eastern swing opening Thursday in Cincinnati.
The opposition there will be Coach John Wiethe's Bearcats, tenth-ranking five in the nation last year, Two other clubs of high ranking, Duquesne and Holy Cross, will be met Dec. 17 and Dec. 20, before the Jayhawkers close against John Bunn's Springfield college five in Springfield, Mass. Dec. 23.
Holy Cross will carry two of these in Bob Cousey and Frank Offring, both members of the Crusader N.C.A.A. kings of 1947. Cousey is a lightning fast '6' 1" forward who established a single season scoring record of 486 points two years ago. He hit 480 last year and owns a current mark of 1193 for three seasons. He canned 28 points against Tulane in the Sugar bowl last year.
This will be K.U.'s cruelest stretch of the season. Not only will Allen's youths be playing on foreign boards all the way but they will be facing some of the country's potential All-Americans.
Oftring is a 6' 2", 180-pound 25-year old guard. He is high on the list of eastern rebounders and scores consistently in the clutch. He and Cousey co-captain Les Sheary's quintet which is rated the best in New England this winter.
This is a club which won 10 of its 19 games last year after losing its top hand, George Kafaton, at mid-season. It dropped a mere 48-51 decision to Kentucky's N.C.A. a.titlists. The Jawhawkers will win the conference son which can match the experience and class of Cousey and Olfring.
The former rimmed 20 points as the Cross opened with an 83-40 shelling of American U. The Crusaders also have run over the Knicks and Killie Griffin meet them in the Boston Garden in the second game of a double-ball. Loyola and Boston College play the opener.
The Red and Blue rebound corps will find out how good it is in McKesport, Pa. when Clyde Lovellette Jack Carb and company match carom-retrieving with Duquesne's Charles Cooper, 6" 6" veteran who is the hub of a seasoned Duke outfit. The towering Negro nailed 298 points in 22 games last year as the Dukes won 18 and lost 5.
Cincinnati stretched its victory skein to thirteen straight by winning its first two starts this winter over Carderville and Kentucky Wesleman.
Four veterans are returning from the nifty 1948-49 Bearcats. These include Ralph Richter and Dick Dallmer, two of the Midwest's best shooters; Al Rubenstien, who is being called a "second Ralph Beard" and Guard Jack Laub.
Richter, the Cats' tallest returning performer at 6' 4", dumped home 160 points last year; Dallmer 353. Wiethe's gang won 23 and dropped only five last year.
Springfield has bowed to Arnold
College and Connecticut in its first two games, but will play three more games before tackling Kansas. Only three lettermen are returning from a team that won 14 of 22 starts last winter. Bunn, current president of the National Basketball Coaches' Association, is one of Allen's most illustrious pupils. He was a 10-leterman at Kansas, winning four in basketball and three in baseball from 1917 through 1920. He later coached successfully at Stanford guiding the Indians Pacific Coast titles in 1936, 1937, and 1938. He was Allen's aid here 10 years.
A three-dimensional film, "Topographic Maps by Photogrammatic Methods," will be shown by the American Society of Civil Engineers at 7:30 p.m. Friday in 426 Lindley hall.
The film will be shown prior to the A.S.C.E. business meeting. The public is invited to attend.
Allen will herd a 13-man squad, including five sophomores, through the swing. The Jayhawkers will go east boasting a record of two wins in three starts.

Final Exam Schedule Set

Laughton Bellows, Paces In Preparation For Show
By KAY O'CONNOR
Before Charles Laughton came on stage with his armful of dog earl books and his horn-rimmed glasses, he had already put one show not seen by his formal audience.
Arriving at the Union at 6:20 p.m.
Sunday with his agent, Hal Melone,
Mr. Laughton met Craig Hampton,
president of Student Union Activities,
which sponsored his appearance at the University. They went immediately to Hoch auditorium.
Probably 10 combinations were tried while Mr. Laughton, greying hair, rapidly becoming tousled, smoked borrowed cigarettes and paced the distance between center stage and control panel.
"All right, now how about the acoustics here? HAH!" The walls of Hoch echoed from the resounding bellow. "These lights, this sound, it's very important, you know."
"No, that won't do." Laughton would say. "It's too tall. I put the stool on the table to lean against while I read, not to sit on. I bore the pants off you if you can't see me."
His heavy jowls shaking, the actor jumped nimbly onto a chair and up to a table to look over a screen around a pile of chairs and stools. "There!" pointing with arm out-stretched. "That one. Now I'll want another table—for my books, you know.
Into the mike flowed a sudden unbroken stream of poetry: "... flowing down to Camelot How doth the little busy bee its shining hours The transcontinental streaking across the continent 80 miles an hour —HAH."
"Now then, how about lighting? That spot wants to be about 2 feet on over this way, old man. Oooups not so far . . . split it."
"Certainly," he answered with a coy smile.
Out onto the stage went the big man, his retinue of stage managers, a reporter, a photographer, and an agent trailing after him like so many small ducklings.
A textbook in business law was borrowed. On with the glasses, off with the slightly dirty beige hat and coat, and in the best manner of the English court.
"Mr. Laughton, would you pose for a picture with a book at the mike?"
"C gives the note by negotiation, after maturity D, who has knowledge of the fraud perpetrated upon B by A—" This is getting terribly complicated. Let's go dig a chicken sandwich."
Beca Raton, Fla., —(U.P.) A commi-
tive department official has said
there probably will be enough coffee
to meet demands next year if housewives
quit hoarding and dealers quit
speculating.
Coffee Speculators Send Prices Rising
Actual shipments of coffee to the United States during the first nine months of 1949 were 7 percent higher than those of the same period in 1948. Unless there is a big increase in consumption, he said, this higher volume should compensate for slightly lower imports expected early in 1950.
George W. Muller, chairman of the food division of the departments office of international trade, blamed the recent rapid increase in coffee prices on both consumers and the coffee industry.
Prizes for the winning couples will be given at a duplicate bridge tournament to be held by the 4-No Bridge club from 2 to 6 p.m. Saturday in the Union. A dinner will be held after the tournament.
"The public, roasters and dealers in coffee can contribute to price stability and even distribution of supplies by returning to their normal told operations." Mr. Muller told the National Coffee association.
Prizes Will Be Given At Bridge Tournament
In duplicate bridge both couples at attable play the same hand. The court with the highest score on the hand wins.
Ad Man Will Talk To Business Class
M. H. Straight, direct mail specialist of the Rogers and Smith Advertising agency, Kansas City, Mo., will speak before members of the Business Communications classes at 8 p.m. today in 305 Bailey hall.
Group Aids War Orphan
For the third consecutive year the Inter-Fraternity council will aid the support of Gustave Le Guevel, 12, French war orphan.
Gustave's parents were both killed in World War II and although there were other children in the family, no record of them has been found. Gustave has been staying at a boarding school in St. Brieuc, France, with approximately 50 other war orphans. With the aid of the $180 sent each year by the Inter-Fraternity council through the Foster Parents plan, Gustave received the barest necessities of food and clothing. A part of this money is allocated for his education at the school.
The Foster Parents plan, with central offices in New York, can obtain war orphans in any European country. All transactions and correspondence carried on between the orphan and the organization supporting him go through the New York offices.
Gustave studies at the boarding school and works on a farm harvesting wheat during the summer month. Inter - Fraternity council, voted to continue their support and is sending Gustave $10 for Christmas. This money will be doubled by the New York office and the money will be used in the purchase of needy articles of clothing.
Rookie Railroader Saves Log Train
McNary, Ariz., —(U,P)— Southwest lumber mills, inc., officials credited a rookie railroad conductor with saving an untold number of lives by stopping a runaway logging train.
Conductor Wesley W. Clark, 38, an employee of the Apache Railway company for less than three weeks, stuck to an out-of-control 10-car lumber train which was headed down grade directly into a big mill.
Mr. Clark desperately continued to work the faulty air brakes which finally caught hold, just a few miles short of the employee filled mill located in the heart of this company operated town of 2,500. It had continued to service charge, the army officials believe the runaway would have been exceeding 80 miles an hour when it hit the center of town.
Mr. Clark was the only one of three trainmen who didn't jump from the heavily laden train when the brakes failed. Engineer Wade Jones, 26, and fireman Cleo Buren, 45, leaped to safety as the train roared down the tracks at an estimated 50 miles an hour.
Mr. Jones received a wrist fracture, broken shoulder and cuts and bruises. Mr. Buren suffered a broken collar bone, wrenched shoulder, lacerated knees and ankles and possible internal injuries.
Asked why he didn't jump with Mr. Jones and Mr. Buren, Mr. Clark said: "I thought I'd better stick it out. I knew that if I didn't there would be a hell of a mess."

Chowla Talks On Hypothesis
Dr. Sarvadaman Chowla, professor of mathematics, discussed one of the most famous unsolved problems of the number theory, the Riemann hypothesis, at the mathematics colloquium in Strong hall Monday afternoon. Approximately 35 persons heard the lecture.
The Riemann hypothesis, concerning the Riemann Zeta function, was proposed 100 years ago. Attempts to disprove it have failed. Dr. Chowla presented different concepts concerning the authenticity of the hypothesis.
Professor Chowla gave the same address which he will present on Wednesday, Dec. 28, at the fifty-sixth annual meeting of the American Mathematical society at Columbia university.
The next meeting of the colloquium will be held on Monday,

Betty Lou's Stocking Will Be Well Filled Christmas
Brownsville, Tenn.—(U.P.)-Betty Lou Marbury doesn't know it yet, but she's one little girl whose Christmas list will be filled.
The nine-year-old girl whose plea for prayer that she won't lose her right hand touched the hearts of the nation, went Christmas shopping in Memphis the other day. She had just finished her final X-ray treatment until January.
Store officials and the Memphis Commercial appeal kept careful check on everything she said she wanted—and will see that she gets it. A store official even planned to supply a small white dog, which isn't carried in stock.
Leavenworth Club Elect
Jane Schindling Chairman
The Commercial Appeal had published Betty Lou's letter, in which she told of the danger of losing her hand to prevent spread of a malignant disease. She asked for readers to pray for her, and prayers were offered in many churches Sunday.
Jane Schindling, education freshman, was elected chairman of the Leavenworth County club recently in a town-council committee energizing sophomore who resigned.
Plans were discussed for a Christmas party during Christmas vacation in the Leavenworth High school gymnasium. The high school senior class will be invited, Kaaz said. The date for the party will be set after the vacation begins.
The big cartwheel, which once could buy more than a stack of the present-day green stuff, seldom is seen now in ordinary day-to-day exchange.
Bankers believe the biggest group of present-day silver dollar users are people who frequent gambling places and slot machine players. The heavy dollar is too large to meet the needs of the housewife or average consumer, especially with the drastic cheapening of money during the past decade.
Even in western states like Colorado, where 15 years ago cashiers always returned silver dollars in change for folding money unless specifically requested not to, the silver dollar is dropping out of the money picture as far as the grocery-buyer is concerned.
They still are not as rare in the west, however, as in the east, where a silver dollar seldom is seen outside a bank vault.
Despite the silver dollar's disappearance from the bulk of trade, it still is popular with some people. Moses Smith, director of the U. S. mint in Denver, said the hard dollars are being distributed at a rate of about four million a year.
The treasury has a stockpile in its mints of something like $13 million in silver dollars, despite the fact that minting of that coin was stopped in 1935. The last big batch was turned out in 1921.
The silver dollar reached the height of its popularity as a medium of exchange in the 1880s and '90s during the heyday of such fabulous mining kings as Colorado's "Haw" Tabor and Meyer Guggenheim.
Tabor always carried a pocketful of the big clanking coins which he liked to throw onto the stage of the Leadville opera house when a trim figure drew his admiration. Some of the silver barons used the dollars for flooring as an obvious motif.
A part of the present demand for silver dollars, the Denver mint believes, may be attributable to the growing demand for coin in this country.
U. S. mints in the past decade have produced 50 per cent of all the coinage turned out in the United States in the past 150 years.
Until dollar parking meters and peanut machines come along,however,gambling probably will provide the chief demand for the old-fashioned cartwheel.
Geologist Speaks At ASME Banquet
One hundred seventy-five engineers from four chapters of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers heard R. C. Moore, research director of the Geological Survey, speak on his experiences in Japan where he acted as advisor to Gen. Douglas McArthur.
Dr. Moore said that General MacArthur is doing an excellent job in Japan, although the Japanese still are far from recovery. One of his jobs while in Japan was to study more efficient methods of exploration of minerals than those currently practiced by the Japanese. He illustrated his talk with films taken on the trip.
He was speaking at the annual banquet of the society, held on Dec. 8 at the University. The chapter from Kansas State college and two chapters from Kansas City were guests of the K. U. chapter.
Among the guests from Kansas State college were M. A. Durland, dean of the engineering school; A. H. Duncan, honorary chairman of the student group; Lynn Helander, head of the mechanical engineering department; and Ernest Thorne, student chairman of the K-State chapter. E. M. Bruzelius, senior chairman; and Charles Green, junior chairman, were among those from the Kansas City group.
Ben Jonson, English poet laureate, is buried in an upright position in Westminster Abbey.

Faculty Members Supervise Experiment In Technique Of Spelling Instruction
Two faculty members observed an experiment in the technique of teaching spelling in Concordia and McPherson, Kan., Dec. 8 and 9. More than 2000 students were subjects for the experiment.
Henry P. Smith, associate professor of education and Fred Montgomery, assistant professor of education and director of visual education, made the trip.
The experiments are being carried on in the public schools of Lawrence, Concordia, McPherson, and Kansas City, Kan., and will continue for the entire school year. The third, fourth, and fifth grades are the experimental groups.
1. The controlled method or present method. The teacher uses the regular text book and students study from the text.
The experiments are of three types:
2. The multi-sensory method, whereby the students see the words, hear them, write them, and speak them. Under this method words are flashed on a black board from a projector using a glass plate. The words are usually flashed for a second or less.
3. The pupil-coach method under which one student is the teacher and the other student the pupil. Students then switch so that each has an opportunity to obtain experience as the coach and student.
All three types of experiments are being carried on in each grade level in each school. For example, three groups of third grade students will each be working under one of the above techniques.
Dr. Smith and Dr. Montgomery have made two earlier inspection trips this year. They will make other trips later in the year. The purpose of the trips is to see that the experiment is properly planned and to answer questions which teachers may have regarding the techniques.
Dr. Montgomery explains that the large number of students in the experiments will add to the validity of the results. He said that he was unable to say which technique was proving the most successful at this time.
Professor Montgomery said that the teachers have reported enthusiastic interest in the experiments on the part of the students.

Scholarships Are Explained
"broker in scholarships," is the way David Wodlinger, a representative of the Institute of International Education, describes his agency. The Institute's Fulbright-division chairman visited the University Dec. 8 and 9 to attend a conference to discuss administration of the U.S. government scholarships.
"The institute is the only agency of its kind in the country," Mr. Wodlinger said. "Scholarship administration is our primary work. It is a non-profit organization supported by the Rockefeller and other educational foundations."
The institute's purpose is to advance and exchange knowledge and build roads to peace through international education and understanding.
"Many former exchange students are in high positions in their own countries. Among them are some of America's staunchest supporters," he said. "Through their education they have been able to play active roles in raising the standard of living of their native countries."
J. H. Nelson, dean of the Graduate school; Laurence C. Woodruff,
dean of men; and Miss Margaret Habein, dean of women, comprise the Fulbright committee at the University. ___
Prices Lower For Holidays
Prices on Christmas items are slightly lower than last year and customers are shopping around for good quality merchandise before buying, department stores in a dozen cities reported.
Meanwhile, federal reserve officials reported that sales were down as much as 10 per cent in the same cities compared to last year.
A United Press survey showed that despite the lower prices, customers are taking their time about making purchases, looking around for the best quality at the cheapest price possible.
Durable items, such as television sets, refrigerators, and kitchen ranges are selling better than last year in most cities, however. Some dealers said their television sales were surprisingly good.
Store managers in several towns reported that they had to decrease their margin of profit because of the increased competition as purchasers hunted for bargains. Some stores were running mark-down sales to spur Christmas business.
Most of the stores said that more customers were taking advantage this year of installment credit plans although the increase in credit business was not large.
Federal reserve officials said that department store sales declined in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Richmand, Va., Atlanta, Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Dallas and San Francisco.

Anderson Seeks Benefits For World War II Vets
A severance tax on petroleum products with the revenue going into a World War II veteran's benefit fund was proposed by Ken Anderson, 46th district representative, in a meeting of the Young Democrats recently.
"The people of Kansas are being robbed by the oil and gas interests, declared Mr. Anderson, who owns oil producing property in Louisiana." "The natural resources of Kansas are being drained at an alarming rate and little in the way of taxes is being returned to Kansans."
Mr. Anderson has visited 77 Kansas counties during the past six months "pumping life into dead Democrats."
"I have proposed and intend to keep on proposing that a severance tax be levied on the profits from these natural resources. A part of the money derived from this tax should go into a benefit fund to aid World War II veterans over rough spots in the future."
A novice in politics, businessman Anderson was elected to the state house of representatives in 1948. He feels that "lobbies are a great help in presenting different viewpoints on proposed legislation providing both sides are heard. New legislators have to learn fast and lobbies, if used right, can be turned to advantage."
The 40-year-old bachelor owns one of the largest cattle ranches in the United States. He markets 20-000 cattle yearly from 3,500 acres of grazing land in western Kansas. He also operates a string of grain elevators and owns a grocery store.
Mr. Anderson charged that a vicious political machine is controlling Kansas government, "Lazy, incompetent political parasites have banded together to serve special interests in Kansas," he asserted.
Stating that chances for a Democratic party victory are better than in many years, Mr. Anderson urged the Young Democrats to go home and run for office when they finish school.
"Even if you don't win," he said,
"you will become known and the
experience will be good for you."
Each week approximately 24 persons who enjoy square dancing meet in the recreation room of the Union to practice and enjoy the dance.

He is interested in obtaining more members and said, "Some people are afraid to dance—and square dancing offers a real chance to lose their inhibitions."
At 7:30 p.m. Wednesday the students meet for a half hour of practice and an hour of dancing.
The group has four experienced callers for the Wednesday night fun.

Veteran Of Little Big Horn Celebrates 98th Birthday
Lead, S.D.—(U.P.)—An old soldier, who celebrated his 98th birthday Dec. 9, said one of the nation's worst defeats could have been averted if his commanding general had not been "a fool."
the turtly war
din' for Charles A. Windolph, the last survivor of the battle of the Little Big Horn when General George A. Custer's seventh cavalry troops were wiped out by fierce Sloux Indians.
Mr. Windolph also is the oldest holder of the congressional medal of honor.
No special birthday celebration was planned.
"I'll always say it was a renegade cowpuncher who shot me," Mr. Windolph said. "It didn't hurt much. It was just a flesh wound."
Mr. Windolph remembers himself as a "great soldier," and points to his medal of honor as proof. He also calls attention to his purple heart that guarded him on his birthday three years ago-70 years after he earned it.
Custer's last stand is Mr. Windolph's most vivid memory. He is unconcerned about atom bombs or communism, but will launch into a detailed description of his exploits with his old cavalry unit at every opportunity.
He stayed on his feet and completed the mission, however, and later received the nation's highest award the medal of honor.
He was wounded during a phase of the famed battle on July 26, 1876, by a 45 calibre slug while covering fellow troopers who were on a dangerous mission seeking water for the wounded and dying.
Mr. Windolph missed death that day because the dashing Custer split his command to engage the Sioux on the bluffs of the Little Big Horn river in Eastern Montana.
Mr. Windolph, who was a first sergeant, and his fellow troopers of Company H of the famed Seventh Cavalry went to the aid of Major Marcus Reno who had been besieged on one sector of the battlefield with Custer and his 276 men were being wiped out in another area.
"Custer was a fool," he said. "But he was brave. He wouldn't send

Wichitans Cheer Cat As Feline Objects To Quarantine Ruling
Wichita, Kan.—(U.R.)—Wichitans, tired of a stringent 90-day animal quarantine, chewed a cat recently as it battled with two policemen.
The fight delayed the cat's transportation to the humane society in downtown Wichita long enough for a large crowd to gather.
The black tom cat put up a lusty fight for freedom when the patrolmen picked it up in enforcing the word of health quarantine ruling.
"Charge it with resisting arrest," called one woman facetiously to the patrolmen.
Another suggested the use of a lasso.
But Patrolmen Dick Martens and Cass Haag hadn't the time or the inclination to heed the advice.
They were fending off the violent scratching of the clawing toateat.
ed to protect his hands from scratches and Martens said he had trouble driving the patrol car with the cat clawing. It even started the siren once or twice in an effort to get away.
Haag said two pair of gloves fail-
Finally, patrolmen got the cat to the humane society in a screened-in truck.
The quarantine has been in effect for several weeks as a precaution against rabies. Since the order became effective more than 4,000 animals have been killed in the city's gas chambers. Most of them were taken by the pet owners who were unable to keep pets in their homes to comply with the order.

Polish folk songs with Chopin's genius created music which was not national, but universal. Felix Labunski, chairman of the composition department of the Cincinnati College of Music, said recently. His lecture was sponsored by the School of Fine Arts.

That's approximately 1.193 offspring to each family in the dition. There are nine children aged 12 to 17; 55 children from 5 to 12, and 158 children under four years old.
"From his childhood, Chopin was interested in folk songs," Mr. Launbuni said. "Every summer he would go to villages near his home in Warsaw to hear the folk music. He later used these melodies and rhythms in his compositions. Many of his mazurkas and polonaises, for instance, were Polish folk songs. However, Chopin took liberty with these songs—some of his mazurkas do not contain the orthodox mazurka rhythm.
The 186 families living in Sunnyside have 222 children, according to a survey taken recently.

"Because it is surrounded on three sides by mountains, Poland has retained many old customs. The folk music, which was influenced by Western culture, has the Slavic emotionalism, lightness, and fantasy. The Poles do not sing while they work; they sing only at festivals. Thus, Polish folk music is mainly dancing music. Men and women in colorful costumes dance in couples, single lines, or in groups similar to those of American square dances. Mr. Labunski explained.

US Blows Up At Bulgarian False Charges
Washington,—(U.P.)—The United States and Bulgaria may be headed for a break in diplomatic relations.
The state department said Bulgaria's mistreatment of American diplomats raised the question of whether Bulgaria wants to continue normal diplomatic relations.
For its part, the state department said it "can not ignore" Bulgaria's repeated conspiracy charges against Donald R. Heath, U. S. minister.
James E. Webb, undersecretary of state, delivered a U. S. protest and a warning late yesterday to the Bulgarian charge d'affaires, Peter Voutov. Mr. Webb called Mr. Voutov to the state department and lectured him for 15 minutes without pulling any punches.
Mr. Webb protested general restrictions on the U. S. legation in Sofia, and specifically defended Mr. Heath against Communist charges that he conspired to overthrow the Bulgarian government.
The Communists are trying Trai-cho Kostov, former vice-premier, and 10 other Bulgarians on charges of plotting against the government. Mr. Kostov is accused of conspiring with Mr. Heath, but Mr. Webb protested Monday that these charges were "patent falsehoods."
Mr. Webb recalled that Mr. Heath had asked the Bulgarian government newspapers to print his denials.. Instead, the Bulgarian press repeated the charges and indicated that all American denials were lies.
As soon as the Webb-Voutov conversation ended, the state department put out a blistering statement hinting that Bulgarian - American diplomatic relations hung by a thread.
"This deliberate attempt to involve the United States minister has compelled the U.S. government to question the Bulgarian government's intentions with respect to the maintenance of normal relations between the two countries," the state department said.
"These most recent actions of the Bulgarian government directed against the American minister are not an isolated development. For some time the U. S. legation in Sofia has been subjected to a series of indignities and restrictions including false charges against American officials, intimidation and persecution of local Bulgarian employees, refusal to issue visas to personnel assigned to the legation, and various restrictions on travel and housing," the department said.
The state department also exhibited Bulgarian press reports that said American denials of spying were "old and tattered clichés." One newspaper article, signed by Todor Guenov, director of the political department of the Bulgarian foreign office, said Washington and London did not understand that their spies had been caught.
Mr. Heath, a native of Topeka, has been minister to Sofia since Sept. 30, 1947, but his tour of duty there may be ending.
$1000 Scholarship To Honor Earhart
An annual $100 scholarship in honor of Amelia Earhart to encourage graduate study by women in the field of aeronautical engineering has been established by Zonta International, an organization of executive and professional women.
The scholarship will be awarded each year to a woman who holds a bachelor's degree and who has been recommended because of high character and ability. The scholarship may be used in any graduate school approved by a committee of members of the organization.
"It is a very outstanding fellowship, and there will be very little competition for it," said Dr. William W. Simpson, chairman of theeronautical engineering department. "Women on the campus who have majored in the sciences or physics, and who are interested in

Dachshund Gives Up Food Playthings For Toy Dog
"Worthal really keeps a sharp eye out for good lookin' coeds."
Dallas, Tex.—(U.P.)—What Wagner the Dallas dachshund needed most of all was a good canine psychoanalyst to determine whether the many-time father has developed a mother complex.
"I have no idea how many dachs-
hauds he has shed," Mrs. Buchloz
hands.
"That's what I think's the trouble," said Douglas Buchholz, the moody mutt's master.
Those interested may receive further information and application blanks by writing Miss J. Winifred Hughes, Alumni house, Syracuse university, 940 South Crouse avenue, Syracuse 10, N. Y.
"He sounded so sad," the dog's mistress related. "He pokes around from room to room, carrying that thing by its neck, like a mother dog carries her puppies."
Food holds absolutely no lure for Wagner since he found the toy. His owners fear he may starve to death.
Wagner, now 12 years old and the second of human being's 70s, began as father
aviation, may talk to me about the scholarship," Dr. Simpson said.
"My husband and I can't understand Wagner any more," Mrs. Buchholz said. "Up until now, he's loved babies and other dogs but today he won't have anything to do with the neighbor's children. We brought one of his little dog playmates in to see him, but Wagner just ignored him and gazed at the rubber puppy."
Since Sunday, Wagner has refused to eat or to be separated from a toy puppy he rescueted from a "graveyard" of children's play-ruled rubber poodles that was shipped as a Christmas gift to needy youngsters.
The registered daschund, whose name was inspired by the German operatic composer, put up a very musical howl when Mrs. Buchholz tried hiding the toy.
"He cut up so much I had to give it back to him," she said. "Tuesday I took out the thing that makes the little toy squeak, thinking Wagner might lose interest in it then, but it didn't seem to matter to him."
The gadget's squeak had made sleeping around the Buchholz household almost impossible. Wagner lay on the toy and every time the toy would squeak. Then Wagner would let out a piercing velp.

Mrs. King is from Pittsburgh where she has been active in musical circles. At the University she is a member of Chi Omega social sorority and Sigma Alpha Iota music sorority. She is a former member of the A Cappella choir.
The program Wednesday will include classical numbers, German, French, and contemporary songs. The aria will be "Tacca La Notre Placida" from "Il Trovatore" (Verdi).
Talk On Furniture Included In Series
Contemporary furniture was the subject of a lecture Sunday afternoon, given by John Maxon, assistant professor in art history and director of the museum of art.
The talk was one of a series of six lectures being given by Dr. Maxon, and Clayton Fowler, assistant professor of drawing and painting, with special attention to interior decoration and Professor Fowler is speaking on symbolism.
The fine old pieces should be taken for what they are, and should be shown with plain modern furniture, rather than bad reproductions, Dr. Maxon said. He also pointed out the use of new materials for greater comfort and practicability with the emphasis on lightness and usability.
The lecture was supplemented by examples of different types of furniture with comparisons of the old and new.

Three In Three Years
Although a great many people judge a University by the quality of its football team, there are still some who look upon academic achievement as something worthwhile.
In athletics, K.U. has had one All-America football player. We're proud of him, and rightly so. Yet from the academic standpoint, K.U. has had three All-Americans in three successive years—the Rhodes scholars. Of course, we're proud of them, too, but sometimes our enthusiasm doesn't seem to measure up to the accomplishment.
Larry Miller, Thad Marsh, and now, Ralph Simmons have brought considerable glory to K.U. and have added tremendously to our reputation. Their achievements deserve recognition. Out of the six scholarships from this district (including Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa, South Dakota, and Minnesota), the University has claimed three in three successive years.
Rhodes scholars are selected on the basis of intellect, character, personality and physical vigor.
Simmons was described by the state Rhodes scholarship selection committee as "Outstanding for his facility to keep problems and facts in orderly arrangement in his mind. He is logical and calm with a brilliant reasoning power."
We congratulate Ralph Simmons and the K.U. Rhodes scholars before him.
Sinister Plot
"Another cup of coffee, please."
The waitress brought the coffee, turned over the bill and began to make additions to the already astronomical charge.
"Hey! What are you doing there?"
"We have to charge for the second cup of coffee now, you know, It's gone up."
This scene has been repeated over and over again all across the nation in the last two weeks. Always it is the same answer, "Coffee has gone up, you know."
All of which is an example of the evidence which points to the fact that there is an insidious plot on the part of various nefarious characters known as speculators, prompted to action by the government, to create an artificial shortage of coffee and thus increase the price of such item.
This can be considered as a direct attack on college students in general, for where is there such a multitude of chronic coffee drinkers as there is in the American colleges and universities?
Since college students are the recipients of such a malicious design on one of their necessities of life it is the natural thing for them to find the causative force behind the price increase.
Now there are two possible logical causes of a rise in the price of coffee. Either there is an actual and valid shortage or there is an artificially created shortage, as was intimated above.
It is easy to see that there is no actual and valid shortage in the supply of coffee. Figures from the Department of Commerce show that coffee imports through September, the first month of the resumption of the college year, were approximately 2.1 billion pounds, a jump of 150 million pounds over the same period of 1948 which in itself was a record import year.
Therefore, the only assumption is that an artificially created shortage is the cause of the increase in coffee prices.
But not only are the speculators to be condemned for the perpetration of this crime but so is the present administration, because they have thrown their full support behind the speculators' activity.
The speculators, expecting a future shortage in the supply of coffee because of an estimated smaller crop this year, have bought the existing supply of coffee and stored it in order to realize large profits when the anticipated shortage hits.
But it is not so apparent as to why the administration would be a partner in such a scheme. Upon closer scrutiny, though, it does become clear.
The administration is cagey, you must give them credit for that. They realize that the graduation speakers are right—the students of today are the voting public of tomorrow. And if the students of today cannot get their coffee they cannot stay awake to study. When they cannot stay awake to study they miss, speaking in generalities, their lessons which give them over-all intelligence leading to an understanding of politics.
By this method the present administration is able to maintain a befuddled electorate and continue its victorious ways in elections.
'Small Things'
"No," we told the freshman, "the recent lecture on Faust was not concerned with the brewing art."
A survey at Northwestern discloses that half the women there are "out to get a man." "K. U. women," says the senior cynic, "are out to get a fraternity pin, an engagement ring and their picture in the paper. If a man comes with these things, it's just incidental."
Charles Laughton ended his program by quoting Lincoln's first political speech and reciting the "Gettysburg Address." This does not necessarily mean he plans to run for public office.
Dear Editor-
Moronic Play
Dear Sir:
I have always been an avid reader of the "Letters to the Editor" column in the Daily Kansan. A letter by one Richard Rowe was particularly illuminating. The statement that a moronic play produced by a second rate director "took the Catholic church apart!" was quite interesting. This seemingly impossible task has been going on for some 1,900 years and the only ones who seem to think it an accomplished fact are various doctors of philosophy scattered about the campus. As for a university being a place for a free discussion on any subject, I, as a political science and history major, question this. Last year when Rep. Hartley spoke for the Taft-Hartley law, as a member of a class of history students, I was obliged to hear it. I have never heard any representative of labor being accorded the privilege of answering Mr. Hartley. As for a university being a place for free discussion, I have never heard socialism or communism discussed—freely. If "permitting such a sensational play is fulfilling an educational function", let's have Paul Robeson or Gypsy Rose Lee to help us in our academic endeavors.

Rules
Dear Sir:
While reading Monday's issue of the Kansan I came across an article to which I would like to call your attention. The sports editor in his column "Spotlight on Sports" wrote regarding the Purdue game: "The referees missed one in the last three minutes if no more." He went on to say that on a certain play, Purdue was not given an uncontested free throw and the ball out of bounds during the last three minutes. He further accused the officials of being asleep by saying that they woke up later.
As a member of the officials profession, I have often been struck by the wholesale criticism of officials, many times unjust, especially by college students.
The new rule as given in the article is that used in high school games. In college games, the last two minutes is the unit of time in which an "offended" team gets the free throw and the ball out of bounds.
I feel any criticism of officials should at least be based on an adequate knowledge of the rules.

Kansas Need Not Fear Oil Shortage, Nixon Says
By FRANCIS KELLEY
America needs synthetic oil producing plants "about as bad as I need more ears—and I can hear enough with the two I have." Earl K. Nixon, economic geologist of the state geological survey, said today.
Mr. Nixon was commenting on a recent announcement of the U.S. Bureau of Mines that its Rifle, Colo., experimental plant had cut the cost of producing synthetic oil from shale "to that of commercial production." The announcement appeared in a United Press story on Dec. 6.
"The cost of installing and operating a synthetic oil plant is a staggering figure. Only an extreme need exists in the country under present economic conditions."
"Synthetic oil production is tremendously over-emphasized," Mr Nixon said. The demand for oil in futures future is likely supplied by natural resources.
"The total estimated amount of crude oil remaining in Kansas to be produced by conventional methods is 695 million barrels." Mr. Nixon said. "The ratio between production and reserves changes but little.
Oil men have known of the possibilities of producing synthetic oil from shale for a long time, Mr. Nixon said. He doesn't see the need for synthetic oil with the present reserves of natural oil.
Mr. Nixon has done much research on oil production and consumption and oil reserves of Kansas. He is author of a review on the petroleum industry in Kansas that was printed as a transaction of the Kansas Academy of Science.
"Of course, it's nice to know that we can produce synthetic oil if we have to, but now the project should be filed away until some future date when it becomes necessary to use it," he said.
Kansas oil reserves are in no immediate danger of running out, Mr Nixon believes.
"It would have been as inaccurate in 1920 to predict the wells would go dry in 1932, as it would have been to predict in 1936 that the wells would go dry in 1948. It would be equally inconsistent to predict now that our oil reserves will be used up by 1960.
"It would probably be fair to say that most of the cream of the oil in Kansas has been taken. It probably is equally fair to say Kansas' largest oil reserves remain in pools that have already been found, in the form of residual oil that must be won by some form of secondary oil recovery."
Their price will reflect the higher costs of labor and supplies plus the effect of the increasing difficulty of finding new deposits of petroleum.
The outlook for Kansas is that for the foreseeable future gasoline, natural gas, and petroleum products will cost the consumer more, Mr. Nixon said.
However, he said, no one now living in Kansas should ever suffer for want of petroleum and its products as long as careful conservation policies are employed in their production and use.
Nixon Seeks Uses For Kansas Minerals
Earl K. Nixon, geologist of the state geological survey, will make a tour this week of industrial mineral plants and quarries in Missouri and Southern Illinois.
and Southern States The tour is being taken to find possible applications for Kansas mineral industries.
"We have many raw materials in Kansas that could be further utilized," Mr. Nixon said. "This trip will show us what plants and quarries in other states are doing with these materials."
Mr. Nixon, who is in charge of economic geology studies for the state geological survey, will return to the University on Saturday.

UN Groups To Meet Here
This will be the second annual state-wide conference of these groups. The representatives will hear an explanation of their channels of communication to the U. N. They will also receive first-hand reports of U. N. work from officials. Practical plans for applying such information to Kansas will be emphasized.
Gilbert Yates, secretary of the economic and social council of U. N. will be a speaker. He represents the United Kingdom at U. N. headquarters at Lake Success.
James B. Orrick, chief of the nongovernmental organizations section of U. N., will also speak. Mr. Orrick, who spoke at the meeting the past year, works with the U. N. department of public information.
Tel Aviv, Israel—(U.P.) The Israeli government has decided to transfer the capital from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem in defiance of the United Nations, sources close to Parliament said today.
These sources said Premier David Ben Gurion was expected to introduce a resolution asking for the transfer when Parliament meets this afternoon. The decision reportedly was reached by a narrow majority before dawn today after 48 hours in office and then parliamentary circles and party gatherings. It was Israel's answer to internationalization of Jerusalem, voted last weekend by the United Nations General assembly.
Capital Is Moved In Defiance Of UN
Parliamentary sources said the transfer of functions would include the cabinet, the parliament, key government departments and the office of President Chaim Weizmann.

Woods Wages Personal Fight For Housing
Washington — (U.R) — Tighe E. Woods, rent director, to help lick the housing shortage personally, has laid foundations for the 28th "minimum house" in a low-cost development near here.
He already has sunk $80,000 of his own money into the project. First buyers in the controversial project—tentatively named Redwood Lage are running a test of Mr. Woods's farmhouse for all familiar family only about $50 a month to pay for housing can live happily in a home 14 by 36 feet.
Twelve of the big-windowed, one - bedroom, redwood - siding homes have been finished and sold. Nine buyers have moved in and the remaining 14 houses will be completed by the end of the year. The original price of $6.450 has been upped to $6.750.
"I have more than 200 live applications for the 14 vacancies." Mr. Woods reported. "I'm beginning to wish I had a blind telephone. I believe we have proved what I thought all along—that there is an almost untapped field in home sales to the man making $50 a week."
After initial setbacks, including failure to get F.H.A. insurance for 25-year financing, Mr. Woods' homebuilding corporation claims it is in the black and is approaching the 10 per cent profit margin that builders generally shoot for.
When the bad weather breaks in the spring he will go ahead with more houses, probably including some with two bedrooms that he hopes to sell for $7,800. He may add a small kitchen, as a substitute for the recessed living room area that houses refrigerator, stove, water heater, and automatic washer in all models built so far.
Servicemen at crowded Ft. Belvoir, Va., get first crack at Mr. Woods' homes. Mr. Woods believes the houses would be as eagerly sought-after in any crowded area. area.
Builders generally have belittled Mr. Woods' efforts and some have criticised him on the ground he used his government position to get breaks not available to him, proof that this isn't true. Mr. Woods now somewhat ruefully to the fact that F.H.A. turned him down cold.
He finally used a lot of his own money and got private financing that enables his buyers to move in with no down payment—except a settlement charge of $237—and monthly payments of $42.69 for 25 years.
William Levitt, a mass producer who is building a Long Island, N.Y., community that will house 65,000 persons by the end of 1951, recently disclosed plans to build a low-cost home that he says will make the Woods' houses look silly.
"That's the best news I've heard so far." said Mr. Woods. "If a lot of other big builders will follow suit—and they ought to be able to beat me all hollow—we can make a real dent in the shortage of housing."

Woman Sells 13 Articles After Correspondence Study
Study through the University Extension's bureau of correspondence has proved both fascinating and profitable to Mrs. Lois M. Smith, Ottawa, Kan. mother of two K. U. students. After a year of journalism study she records the sale of 13 articles.
Travel Bureau Provides Rides
Nearly 200 students are making arrangements for their Christmas trips home through the travel bureau of the Student Union Activities committee, Charles Dean Johnson, second year law student, said today.
The bureau is short of drivers with cars. Johnson pointed out that students who own cars and are planning trips to distant points can get around by car travel by sharing their cars with others going in their direction.
The service, which was inaugurated in 1947, is arranging rides to all parts of the nation. This year there is a high demand for rides to the New York city area, Johnson said.
Students wishing rides through the travel bureau must fill out a form at the Union Activities office in the Union building. The forms require the student's name, home town, and destination.
In 1948 more than 220 students used the service, Johnson said.
Teen-Agers Working During Holidays Subject To Child Labor Provisions
Anatomy of Poetry Defined By Visitor
Poetry's feet or bars are the building stones from which poetry is made, R. Q. Morgan, professor emeritus of German at Stanford university at a academy in Fraser valley English classes in Fraser theater Monday afternoon.
"The Germans have done best in literary works when they have thrown order to the wind," Professor Morgan said. "The poetry of the Romance languages seems to thrive upon the background of order." Professor Morgan was speaking on the subject "Rhythm and Meter."
"Western civilization knows three types of poetry meter," he said. "The first type of meter comes from the Greek and Romans, Homer's 'Iliad' would be an example of this type. The second type is the early Germanic and is typified in the poem 'Beowolf'. The third type is the modern European from the year 1000 A.D."
Teen-age boys and girls seeking part-time jobs during the Christmas holiday season are subject to the child labor provisions of the Fair Labor Standards act if they work in an establishment producing goods for interstate commerce.
Professor Morgan defined the syllable as being the smallest indivisible unit of speech. He said that the length of a line of verse is determined by the number of feet or beats in the line of verse.
"In all establishments subject to the child labor provisions, a 18-year minimum applies to work in the department where manufacturing is done," Mr. King said. "And the minimum age of 18 applies in hazardous occupations such as serving as a truck driver or helper, operating elevators, and other power-driven machines."
This warning was issued to employers today by Walter W. King, regional director of the wage and hour and public contracts divisions of the department of labor. He said that even some retail establishments, if they produce goods for interstate commerce and ship them across state lines, come within the child labor provisions of the act.
In establishments subject to the child labor provisions of the Act, Mr. King said, 14 and 15-year-olds, but none young, may be employed outside of school hours in certain non-manufacturing jobs for no more
than 3 hours a day or 18 a week when school is in session, not more than 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week when school is not in session. Their working hours must be between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.
"These growing boys and girls usually have all they can carry in their school work and home chores," he said. "When such young workers are hired, special care should be exercised to see that they do not work for long hours nor in unhealthful surroundings nor in tasks that are unsuited to their strength.
"Beginning January 25, 1950, the child labor provisions will be more restrictive and will apply not only to children working in establishments producing goods for interstate commerce but to children engaged in interstate commerce itself, such as in the transportation and communications industries."
- Mrs. Smith holds a full time job in the office of the Ottawa Herald, a daily newspaper in Ottawa, Kan. She keeps house, does her correspondence lessons, and still finds time to write features for magazines and newspapers.
"I have also written articles for the Herald," she said. "Some of the writing filled course requirements, and some was done just for fun."
Mrs. Smith, a small energetic woman, is now completing Feature Writing. She showed such interest in her ocourses that she completed Reporting I in seven weeks, and Reporting II in four weeks.
One of her most recent sales was a story to the Texas Live Stock Journal, San Antonio, about a Tennessee walking horse stallion belonging to Mr. and Mrs. John Brand, Lawrence. Mrs. Smith illustrated the story with a posed photo and an action photo of the stallion.
"The articles I have sold are mostly trade journal stories," she said. "But I have also sold one juvenile article, one convention report, a personality sketch, a narrative feature, a utility article, and a personal experience story."
Mrs. Smith has sold one article to Dealer News, Chicago; one to Independent Grocergram, Chicago; three to Mortuaries of the Southwest, Dallas; three to Cook publications, and one to Hardware Age, New York City; one to Young People, Philadelphia; one to Highlights for Children, Honeyside, Pa; and one to the Weekly Kansas City Star.
"I always have several stories in the process of preparation," she reflected. "I like to gather facts and organize them. I get ideas from almost anything I read, see, and hear.
"The money from the articles is useful but writing is certainly not a quick way to get rich. As I build up my store of information and experience, I think I can do better.
"It takes time to get interviews and to gather material. It is often difficult to see people after my office hours. The writing is easy, after I get started. When I start on a story I like to work in uninterrupted sessions in which I forget time, place, and most everything else. I feel more rested when I stop writing than when I start.
"Since illustrative pictures are a great asset in selling articles, I bought a press type graphic camera of my own," she commented. I develop my own negatives saving much time.
"Some day I want an enlarger, but that is expensive and would require a dark room. At the present time I use a closet as a dark room for loading the developing tank, and complete the developing process at the kitchen sink.
"I am just beginning to work out a system of filing material from magazines, newspapers, and other publications for ready reference"
Mrs. Smith's daughters, Lois Carolee, College sophomore, and Shirley Kathleen, College junior, are interested in creative writing and languages. Shirley plans to major in French and Lois Carolee plans to major in Spanish.

STUDENT NEWS PAPER
Britain's A-bomb To Be Exploded Says Newspaper
London, Dec. 15—U.P.)The London Daily Mirror said, in an indirect manner, that Great Britain has developed an atomic bomb that soon may be tested on the secret Australian rocket range.
The Mirror, an independent but anti-Conservative newspaper, hinted, but did not say directly that Great Britain has had the bomb for two years.
By agreement with the United States and Canada, the Mirror said, Great Britain will not test its bomb at the forthcoming Eniwetok tests to be conducted by the United States.
for two years. A spokesman for the ministry of supply in charge of atomic establishments admitted that Great Britain is "developing" atomic weapons as part of her arms program but refused to say whether scientists here actually had completed one
Asked about the Mirror's claim, the spokesman said "we cannot comment. We are not going to answer questions." He added significantly however that the Mirror had "just made some deductions from facts well known."
for said:
The Mirror gave no source for its statement that Great Britain has the bomb but did quote a number of recent government announcements supporting the supposition that atomic development was well advanced in British laboratories.
"Apart from the American proving ground for atomic weapons, the only other likely place where it could be tried out is the secret Australian rocket range," the Mirror said.
"Great Britain's atomic weapon, that our scientists have been developing more than two years, will not be tried out at the forthcoming test of American super-atom bombs," the Mirror dispatch said.
"This decision was taken at the three-power talks on atomic energy between Great Britain, the United States, and Canada. The talks have just ended in Washington.
"The principal result of these discussions will be an increased interchange of information about atomic research and development. As far back as May 12, 1948, A. V. Alexander, said all types of modern weapons, 'including atomic weapons', were being developed in Great Britain.

DuPont Gives KU Fellowship
The University of Kansas has been selected by the Fellowship committee of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and company of Wilmington, Del., to receive a fellowship for 1950-51.
The fellowship provides a stipend of $1,200 for a single man, $1,800 for a married man, and $1,000 to the University for supplies and use of laboratories and equipment. The student must be a candidate for a doctor of philosophy degree.
"The department of chemistry is highly pleased to have been placed on the list of institutions at which the E. I. du Pont de Nemours and company maintains research fellowships," Dr. R. Q. Brewster, chairman of the chemistry department, said today.
The fellowship, Dr. Brewster said, is an ornight gift of the du Pont company. There are no restrictions placed on problems to be studied and no financial return is to be made to the company.
Appointment of the graduate student to this fellowship will be made during the spring semester and work will begin in September 1850.
The chemistry department has three former du Pon allows on the staff. They are Paul W. Gilles, who studied at the University of California, William E. McEwen, Columbia university, and Charles Reynolds, Stanford university. All are assistant professors of chemis-
Carmon Joins ResearchStaff
An assistant administrative consultant, Raymond R. Carmon, has been added to the staff of the bureau of government research at the University, Dr. Ethan P. Allen, professor of political science, said today.

Mr. Wilson graduated in 1948 from Wayne university, Detroit, Michigan, with and A.B. degree. He then received a graduate scholarship in public administration from the Volker foundation at Wayne university. During the fellowship year ending the past June, he did welfare and finance studies for the Detroit Citizens' league and served with the Wayne county civil service department.
Mr. Carmon's first assignment has been a personnel survey at the Mount Carmel hospital near Pittsburg, Kan., in Crawford county. At the same time Mr. Holmgren made a survey for the city of Pittsburg.
The University administrative consultation service will next make an administrative and personnel study of the Sedgwick county hospital and an initiation and preparation of a "city plan" for Dodge City. The latter project will be conducted in collaboration with various citizens' groups to produce a "personalized city plan."
16 Die, 150 Hurt In Sioux City Plant Explosion
Sioux City, Iowa, Dec. 15—(U.R.) Rescue workers burrowed tunnels through twisted debris today, searching for more victims of the Swift and company packing-house explosion that killed 16 persons and injured more than 150 others.
A former University student was injured in the Sioux City explosion. He was Andrew A. Hughes, business student in 1927 and 1928. Hughes was in the main office building of the plant at the time of the blast.
Two men were feared missing but officials said they might be among the hundreds of persons engaged in rescue operations around the big meat plant that was shattered by the blast Wednesday.
Hughes has been employed for a number of years as a sales manager for the firm. He is a cousin of Will Johns, Jr., Douglas county sheriff. Johns called Sioux City and was told his cousin had suffered a broken arm. Mrs. Hughes, the former Margaret Varner attended the University in 1931.
About 100 Iowa National guardsmen stood as sentries around the shattered building, acted as stretcher bearers, drove heavy vehicles and furnished gas masks and blankets.
Sixoux City Fire Chief Charles B Kuhl estimated property damage at "about $1 million". He said it had been determined officially that the blast was caused by an accumulation of escaping natural gas but he said no one knew where the leak occurred.
The guardsmen were ordered to prevent looters from stealing tons of hams, poultry, canned meat, cheese, and oleomargarine which lay among the wreckage—most of it contaminated by ammonia gas released from broken refrigerating units. Almost 30 truckloads of the contaminated foodstuffs were hauled to the city dump where bulldozers buried it under a deep layer of earth.
Meanwhile, authorities were piecing together the stories of survivors in an attempt to determine the exact causes of Sioux City's worst disaster since an explosion in 1918 wrecked the downtown Rust building and killed 39 persons.
Art Steil, a meat trimmer, said he had just left the building for lunch. He was convinced that the explosion took place under the street rather than in the building itself. "The sidewalk blew up first," he said. "The explosion was in the street. The whole building shook and looked as if it were going to cave in.
Statewide Groups To Hold Reception
A Statewide Activities reception will be held in the Palm room of the Union at 8 p.m. today.
Students in Statewide Activities, county club chairmen, presidents of all organizations, members of Mortar Board, Sachem, the advisory board of the commission, and other faculty members are invited to attend the reception, said Otis Hill, chairman of S.A.C.
The movie, "Your University," will be shown during the reception.
NSA To Offer Trips Abroad

Carlson, Regents To Attend Corbin Hall Christmas Revels
The 15th annual Christmas revels will be presented at 8 p.m. today at Corbin hall, honoring Gov. Frank Carlson, the board of regents, and administration and faculty members.
The medieavale theme will be carried out this year, as in the past, and will include such customs as wassail toasts and fanfares for the guests.
Simple decorations in the lounge at Corbin hall will accentuate the atmosphere of an ancient English hall. Only a few sprigs of holly and fir will be strewn about the bare, bench-lined rooft to signify the yule season.
and 100 more will act as hostesses for the guests.
Mrs. Treva Brown, director of Corbin, said that the pageant has changed little since its beginning. The only thing added since she became director are the waits, or street singers.
More than 100 girls living at Corbin will take part in the pageant.
To climax the program flaming wassail will be carried in and toasts given, first by a Corbin woman, then by a guest, Kenneth Anderson, assistant professor of education.
Parking Rule Clarified By Student Court
After parking half an hour in a 30-minute zone, such as Jayhawk drive, a driver must move his car out of the parking stall, not merely move it within the space.
This was the decision of the student court this week in the case of the University versus Walter F. Stueckemann, third year law student. Shortly after he saw a policeman mark the tire of his car while it was parked on Jayhawk drive on Nov. 14. Stueckemann moved the car slightly so that the mark was under the car and not visible. The policeman making a second round gave him a ticket, nevertheless. The court held that moving his car in this way was insufficient and refused his appeal.
Carl Sundborg, third-year law student, appealed two tickets received the same day. His car was marked twice with only seven minutes between markings. On the second marking he was given a ticket, which blew away. He appealed this fine and the court ruled that he did not have to pay it.
He received another ticket 30 minutes after the first. He said the second one was invalid because only one ticket can be issued for the same offense in any 24 hours. The court held that he must pay the second fine because he was parked over half an hour, even though the first ticket was invalid.
A ticket received by Erich Ryll, graduate student, for over-parking on Jayhawk drive Nov. 25, a day of vacation, was reversed. A second ticket, given him in September when he parked in zone A and the zone emblem was removed from his car, was also reversed.
Keith E. Moore, College sophmore, received a ticket when he parked in a west campus construction area Nov. 23. Although the area was not being worked and there were no "No Parking" or zone signs, the court held that Moore would have to pay the fine because he should have known the parking regulations. If he had parked in this area during a vacation period he would not have had to pay the fine.
J. Bryan Sperry, education senior, appealed a ticket received when he parked for five minutes in front of Miller hall to pick up a girl's luggage. The court held that he was justified in parking there under the circumstance and that he did not have to pay the fine.
Three appeals of traffic tickets were made by Robert B. Brown, engineering junior, who received all three tickets while waiting for a disability permit. His appeal from the first ticket was refused by the court. His appeal from the other two were granted.
The court held that James Barney, graduate student, did not have to pay a fine for a ticket which he received for parking in zone I while in process of getting his parking permit changed from zone A to zone I.
Gordon Cummings, College freshman, was held not liable for a ticket received when he couldn't find space in zone G. for which he had a permit, and parked by the zone sign partly in a restricted area.

Santa Claus-Latin Style-Meets St. Nick-Says He's Commercial
Los Angeles—(U.P.)—The three kings of the Orient, the Latin version of Santa Claus, met the American Santa today and pronounced him "too commercial."
But he's winning Latin America away from them anyway, they admitted. The children think the jolly round saint is more fun than the staid, dignified kings from the Bible.
The wise men, who bring gifts for every South-of-the-border child on Jan. 6, just as they brought myrrh and frankincense to the infant Jesus, were flown here from Mexico by Compania Mexicana De Aviación to meet Santa Claus.
It was the first official visit to this country of the robed and bearded men who are as important to Christmas in Latin countries as Santa is here.
"Santa is very jolly, but he is too commercial," wise man Enrique Ortega said. "He sells everything. With all the gifts from him, the real spirit of Christmas is forgotten.
"With us, Christmas is a time for fasting and prayers. We take it seriously."
seriously.
Ortega and the other two wise men, Juan De Domenico, a CMA official, and Pfririo Romay, Mexican
vice-consul, had a date with Santa and Mayor Fletcher Bowron under the city's 105-foot Christmas tree.
They showed up in the flowing blue robes, draped hat and false beards that the Mexican gift-giver substitutes for Santa's red suit and pillows.
The wise men ride on flying camels, instead of a sleigh.
Mexican children write letters to the wise men. Ortega said, and leave them with them in department stores. More advanced stores now have Santa Claus and a wise man side by side. A child who wants to be on the safe side can place an order with both.
"Families are trying to keep the old customs, but you can't blame the children for liking the jolly, laughing Santa better than a sober old wise man," Ortega said.
"Perhaps it will not be long until Santa Claus conquers the country and runs us out of business," the wise man said.

Spies Don't Need SA, Gals But You Gotta Have Brains
Phone 360
Los Angeles—(U.P.)—A woman doesn't need sex appeal today to succeed as a spy, a former counter-intelligence officer said, but she can't make the grade without brains.
615 Mass.
Michel K. Thomas, former chief of the French Maquis, said women were his best investigators but most of the famed agents tried to look like average persons instead of depending on allure.
Thomas, who settled down to running a language school here after three years with the American counter-intelligence service, said a Russian vocabulary was a must at present for aspiring Mala Haris.
A spy needn't concentrate on prying secrets out of impressionable generals, he said. She often can get just as much information from another woman—if she doesn't look like a spy.
Thomas said brains, ingenuity, and acting ability were the raw materials of which good spies are made. They aren't born.
"Most people who think they are born spies, such as the ones who keep watch on the neighbors, are very poor," he said.
The only slinky undercover woman of the old school Thomas knows is a French-born Russian countess who first spied for the Germans inside the Soviet Union. By snuggling up to a French general after the war, she escaped from an allied prison to the officer's castle, he said.
After Thomas broke up her plan to enter the United States, the countess moved to Paris and started spying for the Russians, he said.
At the opposite extreme was a nosy lady investigator on Thomas'
staff who helped track down his biggest prize, a German war crimes suspect, by working her way into his family's confidence. . .
"An attractive woman," he commented, "but no femme fatale."

A meeting of the students is planned for 4 p.m. Thursday Dec. 29 at the Lorali on East 86th street Manhattan.

Seven fraternity "C", and single games in fraternity "A", fraternity "B", and independent "A" made up the schedule.

The Dark Horses remained undefeated in the independent "A" league by downing Don Henry, 33 to 27. It was the first loss for the co-operers. Virgil Haney of Don Henry took game scoring honors with 14 points.
Kappa Sigma won its third game against a single defeat in downing Delta Tau Delta, 32 to 28. Bob Hanson led the Kappa Sigs with four field goals for eight points. It was a fraternity "B" contest.

Delta Upsilon won its second game without a loss by edging the Wineros 23 to 18. Bob Christensen scored seven points for the losing Wineros. Jack Barnhisel and Art Spratt netted five points apiece for D.U.

Women's IM Basketball Marked By Improved Play
Wednesday's basketball games in women's intramurals were marked by improved play by all teams. Two out of the five games scheduled were one-sided affairs, but three were close fought battes down to the final second of play.
Watkins came back after a half-
time tie to defeat Alpha Delta Pi 28
o 23. This leaves each team with
the defeat and one victory.
widetie Jayettes-IS.A. swamped Alpha Bayelles, Pi 35 to 7 after a half-time card of 20 to 3. The A.O.Pi's just couldn't seem to get going against the well balanced attack of the Jayettes. Their record now lists two defeats with the Jayettes' now posting two victories.
The Delta Gamma steamroller pilled up another high score to defeat Harmon Co-op 55 to 19, giving them two victories. Harmon held Delta Gamma to 18 points in the first half as they made 13. In the second half the D.G. forwards began hitting and Harmon's guards couldn't stay with them.
Jeanette Bolas led Watkin's scoring with 12 points. She and Joan Harris paced their team's forward section. Arlene Hill and Virginia Coppedge were outstanding in the A.D.Pi's guard section. Their top corner was Lois Lacy with 12.
Betty Thomas played a consistent game to star both as player and leading scorer for Harmon with 11 points. Three of the Delta Gamma orwards between them scored all out four of their team's points. Nance Bell made 16, Joan Bradford led with 20, and Dot Williams made 15. Their guards were sparked by Jerre Mueller.
Beverly Peeper paced Alpha Omicron Pi and scored six of their points. LaVone Daily led the Jay-ottes by scoring with 19 tallies.
I. W.W's first half lead of 25 to 8 was enough to hold off a second half rally and defeat Gamma Phi Beta 36 to 21. I.W.W's record balances now but the Gamma Phi's two losses.
Joyce Herschell and Catherine Holloway, I.W.W. forwards, starred for their team. Miss Holloway topped the scoring column with 17 points. Suzanne Van Slyke was close behind with 16 for Gamma Phi Beta.
Kappa Kappa Gamma scored their second victory to defeat Locksey 28 to 10. Their half-time lead was 6 to 3. Locksey guards were able to hold the KKG's down to a lower score than have their previous opponents. Locksey's record now stands at one loss and one victory. Dorothea Crawford starred for the losing team with good guarding.
in bingham Bomine Bossi was her highest scoring teammate with five points. Kathleen McKelvy tossed in 15 to ad Kappa Kappa Gamma.

Kansas Opens Eastern Swing
Before entraining for Cincinnati on Tuesday, Coach Allen had this comment concerning his team's 60 to 52 win over Purdue. "Carby's play was most impressive and en- uprooted the defense," he used of Jack's fine rebounding and all-around play against the tall teams we will meet in the East."
A win over Coach John Wiethe's favored Bearcats are to encourage to Kansas fans and get the Allenmen into the win column as they open a rough 4-game eastern swing.
Coach Phog Allen's Jayhawkers will be out to break the University of Cincinnati's 13-game winning streak tonight when they clash in the Cincinnati Garden.
"Students showed a fine school spirit in backing the team and helped them to win." Allen said. "The team and coaches appreciate such fine student support as it can do much toward helping us to a successful season. I feel this year's team will play some great games, but we still need considerable improvement on our defense to be classified as title contenders." Allen added.
Dr. Allen is expected to lead with a new starter tonight in forward Jack Carby, six-foot seven-inch sophomore, in hopes of adding defensive rebound power as well as height under the Kansas basket.
Coach Wiethe's high scoring Bearcats will give the Kansas defense a severe test tonight. Cincinnati averaged 80 points in winning their first two starts and looked even more powerful than last year's club that finished with 23 wins and five losses. The 1948-49 club averaged 67.5 to rank ninth in national team offense. In five contests the Bearcats rolled past the 90-point mark and this year will use a near all senior squad in trving to better last year's records.
In forwards Ralph Richter and Capt. Dick Dallmer, the Bearcats have two of the top shooters in the Midwest. In little Al Rubenstein, five-foot ten-inch guard, they have what they call a second Ralph Beard. They have nine of last year's top scorers back.

Affable Marvin Small Begins Planning Statewide KU Drive
Affable Marvin Small threw his arms in the air and said, "Lawsy,
what do you want to interview me for?"
The newly appointed general as-♥
sistant alumni secretary paused from outlining statewide alumni plans, unbuttoned his gray flannel suit coat, and made himself comfortable in a chair in the alumni office. The 6 foot 2 inch former varsity end still looks trim enough to play football.
Small was a political science major. He played football for Kansas in 1946 and 1947, and was noted for his speed and pass-catching ability. In the 1946 Oklahoma A. and M. game he blocked a point after touchdown attempt to give Kansas a 14 to 13 victory. The same year he caught a 54-yard pass from Ray Evans to score the first touchdown against Missouri. Kansas won, 20 to 19.
"My wife and I like this section of the country very much," the amicable Southerner commented. "We have moved to Lawrence as soon as possible."
The 26-year-old assistant general secretary, whose humor keeps his associates laughing, was born in Gadson, Ala. He enrolled at Vanderbilt university in 1941. After playing one year of varsity football he entered the army air corps in December, 1942. He served with the first unit during which he discharged a lieutenant in December, 1945. In 1944 he was married and now has two daughters Susan, 4, and Diane, 3.
Mr. Small, who was graduated in 1949, now lives in Mission. He was employed by an insurance company Kansas City. Mo., before he was hired as a university. His duties will include all phases of K.U. alumni activities.
The 1949 senior class president has made talks at K.U. alumni meetings in Oklahoma and Kansas since he graduated. In November he was elected secretary of the Kansas City chapter. He also served as "chief quarterback" of the Kansas City Quarterback club the past fall.
Mr. Small is a member of Beta Theta Pi, social fraternity.
His Name Was Orange,
But Actually Was A Lemon
Detroit. Mich.. —(U.P.)—Orange Francis Lashbrook is now just plain "Fred."
Mr. Lashbrook, 32, told the judge that his name was "very embarrassing to me, my wife, and our two kids."
"Everyone calls me Fred," he said. "I'd like to make that my permanent name."
The sympathetic judge granted his request.

“Your honor,” he said yesterday, “I want you to know that this appearance in your court has been a great experience. I want to pay the $5. I want to give it to you.”
Settlement Is Shortlived
Lecture Causes Violators To Pay
Parker, Kan—(U,P) A 740-pound Christmas present from a summer vacation acquaintance is on the way to an Oregon amateur woodcarver.
Judge Paff, who had suspended the fine after Lanese proved his right to fight was repaired, turned the $5 owed to the National Safety Council.
Osage Orange Post To Be A Present
It is an Osage orange post, nearly 2 feet in diameter and more than 6 feet long, with the address of Harold H. White, Medford, Ore., burned on one end.
Cut on an Eastern Kansas farm, the heavy load required a $30.80 freight shipping charge.
The giver is Byrd C. Burham, Kansas City, Mo., who met Mr. White the past June and learned the Oregon farmer had worked with many kinds of wood, but never with the Middle West Osage orange.
Cleburne, Tex. — (U.P.) — Things looked amicable when police arrested two men for fighting and one made cash bond for himself and then signed a bond for his opponent. The men left together, went to a point near the city limits and started fighting again. They were gone by the time officers arrived, apparently having finished their differences.

'Spare The Rod' Psychology Gives Kids The Upper Hand
New York—(U.P.)—Children raised on the "don't inhibit the little jarlling" psychology books are ruining American social life and rapidly turning parents into a generation of miserable hermits, a mother-law-writer said Tuesday.
What the books, in the hands of doting parents, are turning the children into, Mrs. Evelyn Barkins hesitates to predict. She's afraid it's the insane asylum.
"Most of the children of my friends are awful," said the 31-year-old doctor's wife who expects to produce her third book shortly before her fourth child next spring.
They're given everything they ask for, she said. They do everything they feel like. They monopolize the conversation; they're vicious, and they're destructive.
"Their parents are so accustomed to it, they just sit and say, 'Don't do that, dear,' in a weak voice. The children don't pay any attention. "We just can't see half our friends any more." Mrs. Barkins said. "You can ask him with the children. If you call on them you spend the whole time admiring the children's drawings and listening to them babble about what they learned in current events. Even in the dead of night, toys poke at you out of the sofa and baby carriages trip you in the hall."
Mrs. Barkins said her own children were being raised without benefit of psychology books. They've got manners—just like grandfather taught them. That makes them pleasant to have around. Mrs. Barkins said.
They've also got frustrations.
That, she hopes, may keep them
Pre-Nurses Elect Jeanne Hillyer
Jearne Hillyer, College junior, was elected, president of the Pre-Nursing club in a special meeting Tuesday. She will take office at the beginning of next semester.

sane. She's afraid hordes of their contemporaries are going to do stark raving crazy when they grow up and discover "the rest of the world won't kowtow as dear little mama and papa used to do."
Dean Dislikes High Wages
High wages are fine, if you earn them. W. Laird Dean, President of the Merchants National bank in Topeka and a member of the board of directors of the Santa Fe railroad, told members of the society for the Advancement of Management Tuesday night.
"The idea of being paid for doing nothing has got to go." Mr. Dean said. "The unnecessary costs that unions are forcing on the railroads are adding immensely to the railroad's operating cost. On one section of the Santa Fe in California firemen are working 10 days a month and earning $7,000 a year. 'The success of any business depends on its management,' he said. 'The technical side of many businesses that have failed has been perfect. Yet the business fails because of poor management.'
Mr. Dean said that in the cast the bankers would consider a small business loan to be $500,000. Here in the Middle West a small loan is considered to be $5,000 or $6,000.
"There are three questions we ask a person when he applies for a loan," said Mr. Dean. "First, how are you going to use the money? Second, what security have you? And third, how do you plan to repay the loan."
The next meeting of S.A.M. will be Tuesday, Jan. 10. Officers for the spring semester will be elected at that time.

'Forgotten Fleet Stuck In Berlin Since 1945
**Bernlin**—(U.P.)—This is the story of the "forgotten fleet," 38 Belgian and Netherland barges which have been stranded in western Berlin since 1945 because the Russians will not let them sail through the Red zone.
Karl van Dyk, 60-year-old Belgian captain of the barge President Louis Tardy, told a tale of the last four years on the idle waters of Berlin. He said:
When the war ended in 1945 our fleet, which had been seized by the Germans, was spread all over the Soviet zone. At first we had to work for the Russians. By May 1946 they had grabbed roughly 100 or our ships.
"Since we were scared they would liberate' our ships, too, we fleed to the British sector and started sweating it out.
"Our officials here have tried everything to get us out. No dice. Do you know what waiting means? Months and years of fooling around with stupid little chores simply to keep you from going crazy? Thank God that there are still a few things left to comfort us."
"I have a wife sharing my fate," van Dyk continued. I can go home on leave to Brussels every six months. If only the custom guards would not be so difficult."
He threw an affectionate glance across the tiny berth at his dark-haired German wife, Gertrud, 36. She married him in September, 1948. Seven other German girls later also married stranded skippers.
He shrugged his shoulders: "We hoped we would be allowed to go home in 1947 when the Russians finally let pass 37 Dutch and eight Belgian ships. We were told we would follow shortly but more than 18 months have passed since then."
Van Dyk's wife commented;
"With those Russians, I have no longer any hope that we will ever get to Belgium, and hardly anybody knows about our plight."
To "eat like a bird" would mean to eat one's own weight in food every day.

Piano May Be On Way Out, Clifford Curzon Believes
A new instrument may take the place of the piano, believes Clifford Curzon, pianist, who appeared recently on the University Concert course.
"Composers nowadays don't write much for the piano," the 42-year-old English musician said. "I think the supply of good music has been dwindling since the time of the French composer, Ravel. It makes me wonder whether the best piano music hasn't already been written.
"Perhaps the piano is facing the same crisis the harpsichord faced at the end of the 18th century, Mr. Curzon continued." The classical styles of Bach, Mozart, and Haydn were peculiarly suited to the harpsichord. When the romantic composers like Beethoven, Schumann, and Liszt began to write, a new medium, the piano was devised to replace the harpsichord.
"Modern composers have been trying to make the piano a percussion instrument, like the drums. I don't like the idea, because with the piano, you haven't begun to play until you've forgotten that it has iron, strings, and wood. I think a new instrument will be invented to meet the requirements of this new type of music."
Dressed in tweeds and smoking constantly, the affable Mr. Curzon was relaxing in the home of Paul Snyder, associate professor of piano, before leaving to play his next concert in Cincinnati, Wednesday. He and Professor Snyder were private pupils of Arthur Schnabel at the Royal Conservatory in Berlin. They were also pupils of Tobias Matthay in London together.
Another reunion during the pianist's visit was with Raymond Stuhl, assistant professor of cello. The two had played in various chamber music groups during their student days in Berlin.
"I knew Raymond was from Kansas, but I had no idea what had become of him," the personable Englishman recalled. "You can imagine delight when I walked Strong hall and read his name on a poster."
Mr. Curzon is married to Lucille Wallace, a Chicago woman who was also a student of Arthur Schinabel. Mrs. Curzon, a harpsichordist, and her husband occasionally play together publicly in England. Their home is in London.
Elmer Beth To Talk To KC Secretaries
About fifty business secretaries in Kansas City will hear a talk today by Elmer F. Beth, professor in the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information. He will discuss "Journalism, Public Relations, and Advertising". The meeting will be at 7 p.m. in the Hotel Continental in Kansas City, Mo.
The meeting is the 11th in a series of twelve classes constituting a University extension course entitled Organization and Business Management. Professor Beth is the only University faculty member on the course staff. The other ten are from Kansas City.
Topics studied in the weekly classes have included business organization, economics, business trends, mathematics, accounting banking and investments, insurance, commercial law, and human relations.
Marital Humor Overcomes Judge
Detroit—(U,P)—Circuit Judge Frank Fitzgerald granted Mrs. Margaret Huffman a divorce, but admitted today that he hadn't decided whether she or her husband had a sense of humor.
Mrs. Huffman testified that her husband, Edward, threw eggs at her when she remarked to guests that egg shampoos were good for the hair.
"Another time," she said, "I held an empty bottle over his head and pretended I was going to sprinkle him." Huffman promptly deposited her, fully clothed, into a well-filled bathtub, she said.
"He just didn't have any sense of humor," she complained.
Auto Thief Is Determined
Greenville, S. C.—(U.P.)—Failing to start a car he wanted to steal, Everett Godfrey had a wrecker haul it to a garage for repair, a grand larceny warrant charged.
Student Named To Health Job
Barbara J. Owen, senior medical student at the University School of Medicine in Kansas City, Kan., has been appointed medical student assistant in the Lawrence-Douglas county health department, Dr. James M. Mott, director, has announced.
Miss Owen, a former Lawrence resident, is the third senior medical student to take the orientation training in the local health department.
The plan was designed by Dr. Franklin P. Murphy, dean of the School of Medicine, to give the students an actual knowledge of working conditions before going into their internship, Dr. Mott said. The medical students assist in office work, accompany the nurses to rural schools for immunizations, accompany the sanitarian in his inspections of dairies and other food handling establishments, and attend the various clinics conducted by the health department, Dr. Mott said.
Miss Owen in 1940 received a degree in bacteriology. She spent three years in the navy as a biological research assistant and was commissioned a lieutenant in the W.A.V.E.'s. Part of her navy research was conducted under the Deputy Commissioner for bacteriology at the University, who headed that phase of research at the Frederick, Md., base during the war.
A student under the G.I. bill, she intends to take her year's internship at the New York city infirmary after graduation this June.

J. J. Wilson, former member of the board, said that the K.U. housing office, directed by Mrs. Bert Nash, has the same problem with high listings, especially for units admitting children.
E. R. Zook, manager of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, said that conditions are improving slowly and as more houses and apartments will grow, this will gradually right itself. Thirty homes are now under construction.
"One thing not good in the Chamber of Commerce housing office listings is that several houses and apartments are listed at such high prices that no one will even consider renting them." Mr. Zook said.
The rent situation in Lawrence is improving, but it cannot be considered good. This was the opinion of local rent board members after their meeting recently.

"Families with children are the very people who can't afford to pay such high rents, particularly if they are students," Mr. Wilson said. "Property owners who have places for families with children have listed their apartments and houses that families can't rent them. So they provide housing for families with children, but no one can use it."
PATEE THE COMMONWEALTH
John La Monica, village housing director, said that 180 vacant family spaces are available to veterans. This includes 13 two-bedroom units, 32 one-bedroom units, and 135 combination units.
"One bright spot in this high rental picture is that veterans may move to Sunflower if they can't find a place in Lawrence which they can afford." Mr. Wilson added.
Only 26 cards which are supposed to show "unreasonable" increases have been turned in to the rental committee.
James Postma, chairman of the committee, said that, "This small number does not mean that rent increases have been limited to 26, but it does mean that out of several thousand rental units, only a few felt strongly enough that they were being mistreated to make their complaints known."

Basketball Tickets
When the administration and the athletic department objected to the practice of students giving activity tickets to non-students for football games, we agreed with their stand. We can't agree with them in regard to the non-transfer rule for basketball tickets. With a set maximum of student tickets issued, we can see no harm in a little trading. After all, no matter how many tickets are traded, the number of students attending can't rise above that maximum.
Nevertheless, the athletic department has an argument to present, and in all fairness, we should listen to their side of the story.
Officials feel that if we are allowed to give our tickets to other students, nothing will prevent us from giving the tickets to members of the family and visiting friends. This, of course, would not be fair to other students nor to the paying public.
The department emphasizes that the present policy is in no way connected with financial receipts. Public sale is based on the number of student tickets issued, not on the number of students who come to the games.
We feel that the few abuses which might result from allowing us to trade tickets would not outweigh the benefits. Most of the home games are on Friday or Saturday nights—days when parties at organized houses will keep a number of people from attending the games. What great harm could come of a change in ticket policy?
The athletic department tells us that some decision will probably be reached before the next home game. Since there seems to be no really concrete reason for continuing under the present system, let's hope that the department will put its faith in our integrity and do away with the present restrictions.

Plato Or Decent Food?
An editorial writer tells us in Monday's Kansas that university women are not preparing themselves for the work most of them will be doing after they graduate.
He tells us that men spend their time in college preparing to earn a living and then graduate and marry one of these women who has spent four years in school, but is unable to do her share of the work.
This person evidently overlooks the fact that most women come from homes where they have been expected to help with the housework and possibly even the raising of younger brothers and sisters. If their only purpose in coming to college was learning how to cook, wash dishes, clean and sew, they could just as well have stayed home and learned these things at a lower cost.
The writer seems to resent the fact that by eliminating home economics courses, women are able to find time for the study of such men as Plato and Rousseau whom he couldn't squeeze in because he was so busy learning how to make money.
If this gentleman marries one of these women whom he considers so unprepared, he will probably find little room for complaint. If she has learned something about homework from her mother, she will most likely do as good a job at running the house as he does at earning a living right after they have been graduated. The biscuits she serves may not be as good as they would have been had she taken a course in cooking, but she will be able to teach him something of the Plato and Rousseau which she had time to study and that really ought to be worthwhile.
Occasionally, men do drop through open holes or fall off bridges, and in this case the writer could be glad that he married a woman who equipped herself so that she would be able to do something besides wash and cook in order to help her family.

Former Student, 92,Recalls University Life During 1870's
A 92-year-old former University student and Kansas pioneer still vividly remembers early University incidents.
He is Bion H. Barnett, a student from 1872 to 1877. Mr. Barnett, 92, recalled early happenings to University students and faculty members in an article appearing in the November issue of the Graduate magazine.
During the period when he was a student, Mr Barnett recalls, the Grangers gained control of the state legislature and reduced wages of University professors. At the time they were getting $1,500 a year, he said.
The Barnett family came to Kansas in 1858 from Leesburg, Ind. The Barnetts then lived near what is now Hiawatha, Kan. The family moved to Florida in 1872.

State Will Study Job Discrimination
Topeka—(U.P.)—The degree of discrimination in employment in Kansas will be determined through a system of questionnaires and personal conferences.
F. B. Ross of Emporia, chairman of a state commission against discrimination in employment, said a plan is being devised to make a survey of Kansas employment discrimination.
Findings of the committee will be reported to the 1951 legislature for action.
The study was directed by the 1949 legislature through the efforts of Rep. Miles Stevens of Kansas City, Kan., the only Negro member of the legislature.

Miss Hoopes Recites Her Poetry At Medical Fraternity Dinner
Miss Helen Rhoda Hoopes, professor emeritus of the University who taught from 1914 to 1947, read portions of Charles Dickens "Pickwick Papers" to members of Phi Chi, professional medical fraternity Dec. 9 at a dinner meeting. She chose a section which was a satire on medical students.
She also recited two of her poems "Spinster Soliloquy" and "In Hospital." In "Spinster Soliloquy" she said that she could get along with a pre-med student but couldn't get along with a pre-law student. Her reason was that she had had more operations than divorces.
"Franklin Murphy, dean, of the School of Medicine, was a student in one of my classes," recalled Miss Hoopes. "So I must have taught him quite a lot," she smiled, and then after a long pause added, "of English."

Business Placement Bureau Matches Job And Student
Business men are progressively realizing that one of the best places to recruit good personnel is the nearest college or university, says Frank Pinet, instructor in economics and director of the Business Placement Bureau.
The Business Placement Bureau was a direct result of the huge post-war influx of students. Mr. Pinet said the School of Business realized the increasing need for the service to students and to industry.
Assisting Mr. Pinet is Keith Weltmer, assistant professor of economics who specializes in placing accounting students.
Graduating seniors are requested to fill out forms that better enable the bureau to place the individual. In this way the school improves its relations with business organizations and the public.
When the forms are filled out, the student has an interview with one of the members of the bureau. The bureau then tries to determine the best course for the student to pursue and also advises him. There is no cost in position to hire him. There is no cost to the student for the service.
Mr. Pinet and his assistant also make appointments for students with representatives of various companies.
Throughout the semester inquiries are received from the largest corporations on down to one-man businesses. Today there are many openings in the fields of merchandising and sales. Public and industrial accounting are also used with this year. Banking and investment, industrial management and production, follow in that order.
Mr. Pinet said that before the war, most K.U. graduates went to the east coast for employment. Today the graduates are trying to stay in the midwest because salary scales are more equal now than before the war and because many of the graduating seniors are married and the housing situation here is better.
About 25 per cent of the graduates in 1950 will stay in Kansas. Another 25 per cent are expected to go to the east and west coasts while the remaining 50 per cent will settle somewhere in the midwest.
The average graduate will probably start at $200 a month.
Nancy King Recital Shows Rich Quality
By Fave Wilkinson
A sparkling performance by Nancy Messenger King, soprano marked her senior recital Wednesday.
Mrs. King's voice has a rich quality, especially in the middle register. Her tones for the most part are open and well-supported. After the first few notes she relaxed and seemed to enjoy singing her program of classical, German, French, and English compositions.
The drama in the German group by Schubert, Brahns, and Richard Strauss was forcefully depicted by the soloist. Particularly appealing numbers in the other groups were the aria, "Tacea La Note Tortoise" (Dorothy Mozait), "Cleuxum de Bois" (Debusy), and "Segudilell" (DeFalla). Clearer enunciation would have made the English songs more effective.
The accompaniments of Robert Wynne, fine arts junior, contributed much to the success of the program
Civil Engineer Society Will Meet Today In Snow
The American Society of Civil Engineers will meet at 7:30 p.m. today in 101 Snow instead of Friday as announced in the University Daily Kansan.

Publicity Tips Given At Clinic
How to write and how to get good news publicity for campus and civic organizations was the theme of the first two meetings of the Theta Sigma Phi publicity clinic Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
Theta Sigma Phi, an honorary, professional fraternity for women in journalism, is sponsoring this clinic for publicity chairmen from Tuesday through Thursday. Tuesday speakers were Marvin Rowlands, former managing editor of the Daily Kansan; Carol Buhler, journalism senior; and Emil L. Telfel, assistant professor of journalism. Wednesday speakers were Ernest Pontius, advertising manager, Lawrence Daily Journal-World; Mrs. Kathryn Stevens, society editor, Journal-World; and Frankie Waits, society editor, Daily Kansan.
The final session of the clinic will be held at 7:30 p.m. today in 106 Green hall. Speakers for this "round-up" meeting will be Burton W. Marvin, dean of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information, and Paul Husted, city editor of the Journal-World.
At the first session Rowlands told representatives of campus organizations the steps a news story goes through in being printed. He explained the basis for judging publicity items.
Miss Buhler discussed advertising methods used in obtaining publicity. She told the steps in planning an advertising campaign and discussed the distribution of an advert-ing distribution of circula-tors, gift novels and posters.
Mr. Telfel illustrated the techniques of writing a brief, to-the-point news "lead." He said that a celebration, party, or dance should be written up simply, with the most interesting points used first.
Mr. Pontius said that the single-line advertisement at the bottom of the front page is the best kind, but it is more expensive and must be packed with meaning. He recom- mented a list of websites for small advertisements, and the classified section of a newspaper for advertising bargains.
Mrs. Stevens listed "do's" and "don'ts" for publicity chairmen, which included checking of spelling and initials, using the wife's married name in society articles, emphasizing anything out of the ordinance in the lead, using the third person, and keeping sentences bort.
She said that all articles for the Daily Kansan should be typed, if possible, and that nicknames should not be used. She said that the deadline for society items is 2 p.m. the day before publication. There is no charge for printing pictures of pinnings and engagements. Pictures and information must be turned in within two weeks of the event.
Miss Waits explained that the "Up and Coming" column on the society page of the Daily Kansan lists future events and that the "Socially Speaking" column tells about past events.

1949 Air Deaths May Be Lowest Ever Recorded
Washington. —(U.P.) This year already has gone down in the records as the second worst in history for scheduled airlines in numbers of fatalities. But when the big increase in passenger volume is considered, the 1949 fatality rate may be among the lowest ever.
The Monday night crash of a Capital DC-3 airliner in the Poortomac river was the fourth on scheduled airlines this year. Its four fatalities—two passengers and two crewmen—raised the 1949 death toll to 91 passengers and 11 crewmen. This was exceeded only in 1947, when 199 passengers and 17 crew members perished in five crashes.
Barring further accidents before Sunday, Jan. 1, Civil Aeronautics board officials estimate that the 1949 fatality rate may average about 1.2 or 1.3 passengers for every 100 million passenger-miles flown. This would be among the lowest rates in civil aviation history.
Government investigators are still trying to determine the cause of Monday's crash, in which 18 passengers and one crewman escaped death. The tragedy demanded for establishment of the old air safety board that was wiped out by a presidential directive in 1940.
He said the plane was flying a level course at about 300 or 400 feet as it came in for an instrument landing. The pilot, he said, apparently was dissatisfied with the approach and decided to gain altitude—possibly to circle the field again. But just as the plane began to climb, he said the right engine sputtered and gave out.
Joseph W. Buell, 26-year-old flight attendant who was the lone survivor among the crew, told newsmen that one engine failed at a crucial moment in the approach to the airport.
July 30. Eastern Airlines DC-3 in an aerial collision with a navy fighter plane near Chesterfield, N. J. Twelve passengers, three crew members, and the navy pilot died.
The crash had the lowest fatality total of any major scheduled airline accident this year. The other three and their death total were as follows:
Nov. 1. Eastern DC-4 in a collision with a F-38 fighter plane at Washington National airport. Fifty-one passengers and four crewmen perished in the worst disaster in the history of civil aviation.
An estimated big expansion in air travel this year helped to account for 1949's low fatality rate.
Nov. 29, American Airlines DC-6 in a crash at Dallas Texas. Twenty-six passengers and two crewmen were killed.

Geologist Talks On Sub-Sea Oil
Mr. McGee is the executive vice-president of the Kerr-McGee Oil company, Oklahoma City, Okla.
Mr. McGee told of a method of prospecting for oil by means of sound waves which are artificially set up in the ocean bed. He recounted some of the problems involved in protecting drilling operations, and described a drilling platform that is used in the Gulf projects.
The average sub-sea well, Mr. McGee said, costs between one and two million dollars.
Mr. McGee, a native of Humboldt, was graduated from the University in 1926 as a geology major. He served as a geologist with the Phillips Petroleum corporation for several years, holding the position of chief geologist from 1935 through 1937.
In 1837, Mr. McGee joined Robert S. Kerr, now U.S. senator from Oklahoma and former governor of that state, to form the present oil company. Senator Kerr is president of the company.
Crash Victim Tells Own Story Of Snowy Wait
Glendale, Calif.—(U.P.)R a d a r technician. Robert Bryant mumbled through chapped lips a story of how he survived six days on a s n o w-blanketed mountainside where his light plane crashed.
Bryant, still on his feet when he was rescued Tuesday, gave bare details of his ordeal in the rugged mountains 50 miles northwest of Los Angeles.
Doctors at the sanitarium where the 26-year-old navy veteran was brought to recuperate had to restrain him from wast ing his strength in talking. They were amazed at his ability to withstand subfreezing temperatures at a 7,000-foot elevation.
He said his only food was acorns, washed down with melted snow. The nuts and his own courage sustained him, and he was still staggering down a narrow canyon that leads into desolate Devil's Heart peak when found.
Bryant walked a mile with the 13-man rescue party from Fillmore, Calif., but he had to give up and be carried the remaining five miles to an ambulance.
He suffered most from frost-bitten feet, although his leg, hip and ribs were battered in the crash Wednesday afternoon.
"Other than that," Dr. L. J. Klingbell said, "he seems to be in remarkably good condition."
Doctors limited him today to liquids and soft foods because of his weakened condition, and a final diagnosis of his injuries awaited
"But I feel good—now that it's over," he said.
he spent the night after the crash in his plane, a Culver Cadet, and wandered around the peak on following days, he said. In hopes that the wreckage would be sighted from the air, Bryant always returned there for the night.
"After I took off from Glendale," he said, "the plane iced up, and I couldn't get enough altitude. Visibility was poor, and then I crashed." He said he passed out for about a half hour but felt fairly well after recovering.

Edgar Wolfe Wins Prize For Novelette
Edgar Wolfe, instructor in English, today was named first prize winner of $150 in the 1949 William Allen White creative writing contest.
The contest is sponsored annually by the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information in cooperation with G. P. Putnam's Sons, publishers. Announcement was made by Burton W. Marvin, dean of the School of Journalism.
Members of the 1949 selection committee were Dean Marvin; Pearl Buck, noted author, and Kenneth L. Rawson, vice-president of G. P. Putnam's Sons and head of the company's editorial department.
Mr. Wolfe joined the English department in 1947. He was graduated from the University in 1928. He is working towards his master of arts degrees.
Charles W. Schuler, graduate student, won the $100 second prize, and William Hutton, former graduate student who now resides at Winfield, won the $50 third prize.
Mr. Wolfe's winning work was a novelette, "Td Shelter Thee." It is described by Dean Marvin as being "a story of the struggle between man and his environment in the setting of a small snowbound town in the Middle West."
"The Little Men and Other Stories" is the title of Schuler's second prize work. Schuler is a graduate student in the English department. He received his bachelor of science in business administration in February, 1948, and is now writing a novel.
Hutton received the third place award for two novelties and a short story. He earned his bachelor of arts degree at Southwestern college at Winfield, Kan., in 1948 and was awarded his master of arts degree at the University the past October.
Under rules of the contest the winner can be awarded as much as $2,500. Alternative provisions account for the fact that a lesser sum was awarded the 1949 winner.
Two cars were slightly damaged Thursday in front of Watson library on Jayhawk drive.
Those provisions state that if no manuscript is judged of sufficient merit to receive the $2,500 award, Putnam's will give prizes of $150, $100, and $50 for the three best manuscripts submitted.

Careful advance planning for an event is necessary to get good news publicity, Burton W. Marvin, dean of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information, told the final session of the Theta Sigma Phi publicity clinic Thursday.
Publicity Needs Careful Planning
Paul Husted, city editor of the Lawrence Daily Journal-World, also spoke at the 3-day clinics sponsored by the honorary and professional fraternity for women in journalism.
Dean Marvin said that publicity chairmen are actually reporters and should put both the facts and feature angles in the stories they give a paper. Contacts that are not used as often as possible, he said, are the Lawrence correspondents for the wire services, such as the Associated Press, United Press, and International News Service, and correspondents for Kansas City and Topeka papers.
The Journal-World, Mr. Husted said, likes to concentrate on local news and is written not for any members of its staff but for its subscribers.
Contest Deadline Changed
Wesley Jarecke, president of the student branch of the American Pharmaceutical association, announced yesterday that the deadline for entries in the contest sponsored by the American Association changed from 4 p.m. Friday, as previously announced, to 1 p.m. Monday, Dec. 19.
He pointed out that the average reporter would rather have a story phoned into him early in the morning than to have it brought into the office in written form at noon.
Atom Scientist To Speak At KU In February
Dr. Arthur Holly Compton, chancellor of Washington university at St. Louis and prominent atomic physicist, will urge "Power With Purpose" at a University convocation Monday, Feb. 27, to open Religious Emphasis week at the University.
The first atomic chain reaction was initiated and directed by Dr. Compton. First quantity production of plutonium was under his direction. He directed the U.S. government's plutonium research project and the metallurgical atomic project from 1942 to 1945.
At the University of Chicago he was chairman of the physics department and dean of the physical science division. He has been a regent of the Smithsonian Institution since 1938. He has also worked at Cambridge university, Oxford university, and Punjab university in India. The co-chairmanship of the National Conference of Christians and Jews was held by Dr. Compton.
For his work on x-rays, Dr. Compton received the Nobel prize in 1927. His work on the electrical composition of cosmic rays is well-known.
Outstanding for his belief that science has no quarrel with religion, Dr. Compton has published his views in "The Religion of a Scientist" and "The Freedom of Men." Other speakers to appear during Religious Emphasis week are being chosen by groups participating in the week's activities, Martha Dawes, chairman of Religious Emphasis week activities, announced.
3-Day Limit Given Western Civ Books
Western Civilization books may be checked out for only three-day periods during the Christmas holidays, deFafayette Reid, assistant director of the libraries, said today.
"The reason for only allowing the books to be checked out for three day periods is that if the books were allowed to be returned, many students would leave them on buses, planes, and trains and at home," Mr. Reid said.
Students May Get Vacation Rides
The Travel Bureau will be in operation to help students secure rides home over the Christmas vacation, announced Sally Garland, college sophomore.
People who want rides or those offering rides should sign up in the lobby of the Union. They should include when they are leaving, their destination and if students should expenses. Students offering cars also should include the number of riders they can take.
Many more cars are needed at the present time, Miss Garland said.
Koerper Wins Speech Contest
Win Koerper, College sophomore, won the 25th annual campus problems speaking contest Thursday night with his speech on "Respect for the Law." He was awarded an engraved bronze trophy.
Second place was won by Orval Swander, College sophomore, who stated that "taking quizzes at KU. is only playing a game of truth or consequences with the instructors. You answer the truth or pay the consequences."
consequence. Jerome Lysaught, College freshman, and Evan Wilson, second year law, tied for third place with speeches on "The Paradox of Liberalism" and University "Red Tape."
Contestants were judged on the content, treatment, delivery, and effectiveness of their talks.
Koerper told the audience that "by disobeying our smoking regulations, we are fostering disrespect for law in general. Students, professors, and even deans constantly ignore the rules which make our University safe from fire."
Director of the contest was William Conboy, instructor in speech Edward Stollenwerck, College senior, and 1948 winner, was chairman.

Historian Lists 10 Top News Events
Cambridge, Mass.—(U.P.)—Emergence of the United States as one of two dominant world powers was the most "world-shaking" event of the first half of the 20th century, a Harvard university historian told a United Press correspondent.
"This assumption of world responsibility is both dramatic and significant in that the U.S. was forced into this position against its own wishes—without experience or preparation," said Professor Arthur M. Schlesinger.
As the middle of the century approached, the U.P. asked the 61-year-old scholar and editor of a Pulitzer prize-winning book in 1900-1950 that had the greatest effect in shaping the history of the world.
1. **World War I.** "The greatest war mankind ever experienced up to that time," he said. "It remade the map of Europe and paved the way for Fascism and Communism with
Significantly, Professor Schlesinger skipped the automobile, airplane, radio, and movies. And he refused to list the other nine events in order of importance. "I've gone out on a limb enough already," he said.
In chronological order, here are Professor Schlesinger's other nominations for the half-century historical hall of fame:
2. The League of Nations. Professor Schlesinger called this "magnificent failure—one of the iions of man shaped under pressure—with the first constructive action to solve the problem of war-prevention.
its unsettling effects and depletion of world resources and manpower."
to the future fears and hopes of mankind," he said. "It already has changed the character of international politics. Quite apart from its use as a military weapon, I am assured of its rapid conversion to civilian uses. This force that nature has been withholding from us all these centuries is the biggest thing that ever happened in the field of applied science."
7. The abandonment of colonial imperialism. "The U.S. in the Philippines, Great Britain in India, Burma, and Ceylon; the Dutch in Indonesia—all have reacted to one aspect of the rising up of Asia," Professor Schlesinger said.
3. The political emancipation of women-"The greatest global political phenomenon of modern times," according to Professor Schlesinger.
8. The United Nations. "Perhaps the greatest importance of the U.N. is that mankind came back for more after one failure with the League of Nations," he explained. "Only this time the nations tried to do the job more effectively. One symptom of the U.N.'s power is that Russia never has drawn.
4. The depression. "This was the greatest challenge to the capitalistic system ever—and also the biggest blow to human self-confidence," said the amiable gray-haired professor.
9. The emergence of Russia as the second dominant world power.
"Chief significance of this is that Russia stands for a different system of social organization from us and is an aggressor power." Professor Schlesinger said.
5. World War II "In prospective this was the greatest challenge democracy ever faced." Professor Schlesinger continued, "and it left its mark on everything happening since then. It flattened out Western Europe economically and spiritually.
6 The practicability of atomic energy. "This is of supreme importance
Sachem Offers Students Chance To Air Gripes
A series of student-faculty "town hall" meetings during the next semester will replace the student-faculty conferences held in past years at the University.
Meetings will be sponsored by Sachem, honorary society for senior men, which helped sponsor the conferences in the past. The decision to hold several town hall meetings instead of the single-day conference as in the past was made Wednesday by a steering committee of Sachem members and the University faculty and administration.
The town hall meetings will feature audience participation in discussion introduced by platform leaders.
"We feel that the town hall type of meeting will bring in a wider range of student criticisms and suggestions than would the numerically restrictive conference," said Harrison Madden, Sachem member who heads the steering committee. "Besides, the town hall meeting hasn't been used for this purpose for several years."
The first meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 15, 1950. It will be open to all students, faculty, and administration members of the University. Before the meeting is open to general discussion, there will be a short forum in which frequently asked questions will be answered or discussed by a student-faculty forum. Questions for this forum will be taken from suggestions sent in by University groups.
"We hope these groups will help as much as possible in getting the students' opinions expressed," Madden said. "Here is a chance for students to air their grips and criticisms about life at the University and have someone around who can do something about them."
Members of the steering committee for Sachem are Dean Collins, Charles Hoffhaus, and L. Edward Stollenwerck, College, North Carolina; Richard Madden journalism; and Ralph Brock, law. All are seniors.
Letters were sent out Monday to 170 campus organizations asking them to discuss various campus problems within their own groups and send back topics for the forum.
Raymond Nichols, executive secretary; L.C. Woodruff, dean of men; Miss Margaret Habein, dean of women; and Miss Martha Peterson, assistant dean of women will represent the administration on the committee.
Faculty members on the committee are J. A. Burzle, associate professor of German; Mrs. Natalie Calderwood, instructor of English, Miss Maude Elliott, assistant professor of Romance languages; Francis Heller, assistant professor of Finance; Frank Pinet, instructor in economics; and Robert Royer, assistant in applied mechanics.
Architecture Faculty To Meet On Fridays
Faculty members of the architecture department have scheduled a regular meeting each Friday from 4 to 5 p.m. in order to correlate the work of the department.
J. M. Kellogg, professor of architecture, will discuss problems in Design I today.
Instructors in the department will alternate at leading the discussion on various subjects. The discussion leader will put up a display in the architectural library consisting of a few illustrative drawings or models on which to base the discussions.

University Players' Christmas Production Features Good Acting And Staging
By BILLIE STOVER
Three Christmas plays presented by the University Players Wednesday night were outstanding for their good acting and novel staging.
The dialogue of "A Long Christmas Dinner" directed by Dorothy Jeanne Hardy, graduate student, presented many opportunities for an overdose of sentiment, but the actors learned how to bind and characterize real. Persons in that were born, grew to maturity, and died during the 30-minute play.
With movement, gestures, and voices, the actors believably changed before the audience. All of the chairs place around a dining room table.
A set on either side of the stage and a narrator were used in "The Gift of the Magi," directed by Milton Commons, graduate student. The narrator, a landlady, smoke informally to the audience, looked under the curtains in front of the scenes,
and told the stagehands that "You can pull the curtain now," at the end of the play. She, the hairdresser, and the self-sacrificing young couple have realistic performances.
"There's Something I've Got to Tell You," also directed by Commons, was staged as a radio program with slides behind an imitation movie screen.

Survey Shows 20 Per Cent Of KU's Women Students Are Self Supporting
Nearly one out of every five women at the University is totally self-supporting. This information was gained through a survey conducted by Miss Martha Peterson, assistant dean of women.
Postcards were sent to each woman student asking if she raised money for her college funds, and if so, what purpose and how she had earned them.
The postcards were returned by 82 per cent of the women, and showed that 49 per cent of them earned some portion of their livelihood.
Summer jobs accounted for 29 per cent of the earnings, savings from previous jobs for 10 per cent, and scholarships for another 10 per cent. Work during the school year and the G.I. bill was responsible for the majority of the remaining funds.
Miss Peterson said that she was pleased with the response she had received and intends to do further investigation of work being done here on the campus.
She said that she did not know

Kansas Schools Receive Funds
Topeka — (U.P) — Kansas county treasurers will begin receiving checks this week for the biggest elementary school-support program in the history of the state.
Elementary schools will receive over 12 million dollars in state funds during the fiscal year. Approximately half the amount will be included in the distribution to be made Thursday. Additional payments on the grant will be made Wednesday, March 15.
The distribution of funds is the result of legislative action taken early this year. The school-aid program was adopted to encourage smaller classroom units and better trained teachers. Funds are allotted under a formula based upon teacher experience and the number of students in each classroom.
Sedgwick and Wyandotte counties, the two most populous in the state, will get the largest share of the funds under the support program. Both counties will receive over one million dollars.

Kansas Loses To Cincinnati, 56-54
By MARVIN ARTH (Former K.U. journalism student)
Cincinnati, Ohio. Dec. 16—(Special to the University Daily Kansan) The University of Kansas Jayhawkers lost a close one to the University of Cincinnati Bearcats here tonight, 56 to 54, to bring their record for the season thus far to two victories and two defeats.
The Bearcats, with four of the players who made up the nation's 10th ranking team as starters, had the definite advantage of experience over Coach "Phog Allen" with his two big blocks. Bearcats heels throughout the game, but couldn't speed up enough to get and keep the lead.
The Cincinnatians, who have averaged 80 points a game in their first two starts with their fast type play, began the action with two quick baskets. The Kansans quickly buckled down with the score 4 to 0 against them, and after five minutes of play the score stood Cincinnati 5, Kansas 1.
Coach John Wiethe's Bearcats still led at the ten minute mark 8 to 7, but Allen's five had stopped their whirlwind attack. Lovellette, Houchin and Hougland controlled the backboards up to this point, but the fast breaking Ohioans hit their pace, and in 2 minutes scored 12 points while the Jayhawkers were adding five.
Lienhard and Carby spirited K.U. to a comeback, with Lienhard hitting four out of four free throws and a two pointer and Carby sinking three goals. The Jayhawkers steadily overcame the game, and they tied the bag at 15 to 25 as the half-court. Waugh shot from about 20 feet out just as the buzzer sounded, but it was short by inches.
Although the towering Jayhawkers controlled the rebounds with little trouble during the first half, it was evident that they were plagued with a lack of experience Lovelace received three personal injuries in the first part of the half and was replaced midway in this period.
The second half started on a point for point basis with Al Rubenstein, short Cincinnati guard, and Maurice Martin each making a charity shot. Houchin added a two pointer and the Kansans led 28 to 26, for the only time in the game. Cincinnati's Ralph Richter, who was playing his next-to-last game with the Bearcats following his decision to devote all his time to medical school, put on a one man show and scored the next seven points in a row to put the 'cats ahead 33-28. Sophomore Bill Lienhard, who played an outstanding game, and Jerry Waugh, stellar guard, each hit to make it 35 to 32. Lovellette followed with a counter and closed the gap to within one point.

Jim Holstein of Cincinnati, who was high scorer for the game with 19 points, scored to increase the margin to three points. This was followed with a free throw by Dallmer of U.C. Waugh and Lienhard came back with a free throw and goal respectively, and the Jayhawkers were within one point of the Ohio team.
Faced by Holstein, Cincinnati added six points, while Waugh was making another charity toss, and Buddy Bull was making his one shot of the game good. Lovellette brought the Kansan's within two points with a counter, but Richter, Cincinnati forward, added three points to boost the margin to five points. Houchin, Lovellette, and Martin each scored a two pointer, but Holstein, U.C. center, managed three points to make the score 50 to 48. Rubenstein hit for Cincinnati, and was followed with a marker by Lovellette, to bring the score to 52 to 50 with five minutes remaining in the game.
Holstein and Richter added two and three points in that order with Kansas' Lovellette getting two more mainning. In stalling the last three with slightly over two minutes reminutes of the game away, the Bearcats were awarded six free throws on Kansas fouls, but they missed the last five in a row. Houchin made the only score for the Jayhawkers during the final two minutes, when he intercepted a Cincinnati pass and shot down for a set-up.
Lovellette was high scorer for the Kansans with 15 points, followed by Houchin with nine. Cincinnati's Holstein copped scoring honors for the game with 19, and his team mate, Ralph Richter, second with 17.
Cincinnati connected for 33 percent of their field goal attempts, and the Kansans hit only 28 percent.
Kansas will continue its eastern tour with a game against Duquesne Saturday.

Duquesne Next Jayhawker Foe
After dropping a 54 to 16 heartbreaker to the powerful Cincinnati Bearcats Thursday night, Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen's Jayhawkers move into McKeesport, Pa., to tangle with the strong Duquesne University Dukes in a Saturday night affair.
Coach Donald W. Moore's high scoring club compiled an impressive 1948-49 record by winning 17 while dropping only five for a 58.5 point average per contest. On four occasions, the Dukes topped the 70-point mark.
Among last year's victims, the Dukes listed Nebraska 55 to 49. Louisville 72 to 66. Long Island University 64 to 55, and high scoring Villanova, featuring the famed Paul Arizin, by a decisive 65 to 37 score.
Coach Moore hopes to install a fast-break offense this year to take advantage of the high percentage shooters on his club. The Dukes ranked 15th in field goals team percentage with .345 last year and have eight of their 12 leading scorers back.
With last year's four top scorers back, the Dukes are expected to better their 1949 record. As an indication of their relative power, they recently defeated a strong Akron Goodyear A.A.U. club 54 to 53 on the loser's court in an exhibition game.
Duquesne opened their regular season by trouncing the University of New Mexico 55 to 36 and will be out to down the Jayhawkers in the first meeting between these schools.
In their great center, Charles "Big Coop" Cooper, six foot six-inch scoring wizard, the Dukes probably own the finest "big-man" the Jayhawkers will face all season.
Last year Cooper, jumping-jack rebounder and quick-as-a-cat feinter, paced his team's scoring by hitting 41 percent of his shots for 298 points and a 13.5 game average.
The three other high scorers were Ralph Dahler, six-foot five-inch forward, with 230 points; Bob Farrell, a six-footer, with 157 points, and Bill Mohan, another six-foot six-inch giant, who canned 147 markers. The fifth starter will probably be one of several outstanding sophomores. The Dukes will most likely be the tallest non-conference team the Allenmen will meet this year.
Cooper is one of 15 players selected on one early season 1950 forecast for the All-America team. He is exceptionally fast for a big man, great feinder and likes to fake opposing pivetmen out of position to do in for lay-up shots. He will give the Jayhawkers' sophomore center, Clyde Lovellette, his first severe test in trying to guard an outstanding big man.

life, Just Bed of Carrots for Rabbit Who Loses Leg
79
Washington—(U.P.)—“Cutie” Cottontail is the happiest three-legged rabbit in the world.
Here's the story:
John Webster, a Washington lawyer, who lives in nearby Arlington, Va., looked out his basement window a few months ago and saw the little brown bunny looking in—half-starved. He and its sons, Mark, $3\frac{1}{2}$ and David, $3\frac{1}{2}$, fed the animal and shoed into the woods.
But "Cutie" Cottontail, as the boys named the bunny, kept ming back for more carrot tops. and before long "Cutie" discovered e clover on the Webster lawn. The websters realized they had perman- t company.
Small boys, being small boys,
n't like their pets to stay out in
e wet. So it wasn't long before
'utie," puffing up to around three
unds, had bunnied her way into
e house.
She even allowed herself to get house broken, and learned to rear up on her hind legs and beg for arrots in front of the ice box.
Well, last week, the rabbit was
medied not to clover while the kids
replayed "Oscar." "Oscar" came
wounded, scratching on the
sken screen door to get in.
Mrs. Webster let her in; a badly hurt rabbit. So Mrs. W. called Mr. and he dropped everything legal d came home. Mr. W. bundled e bunny and took her to Dr. R. Whitter's Animal hospital in exandria.
First they put her gently onto the "patient's" table and looked er over. A broken leg. It couldn't e set, Dr. Whitter could see that. In operation was successful and the table "faced" the doctor well at this point.
'Cutie?' has all of the stitches out d is able to balance on the good (ht hind one and look for a goodie the ice-box. There is some thought
a wooden leg, although Dr. hitter isn't quite sure it is neces-ry.
Jaskell Entertains International Club
The Christmas program of the international club Wednesday night nurtured tribal dances and customs. The Tumalagua team, led by two students appeared in costumes
demonstrate and interpret
ristmas rituals.
Virginia Baroudjian, College junior, took of Christmas in Egypt, andukas Gianakis, engineering freshman, described Christmas in Greece. Forty-seven club members will guests Saturday of allied nation's accers at Ft. Leavenworth. A tour the fort will be followed by a dinner and dance.
Jub Plans Alumni Meeting
A meeting for K. U, alumni and students was planned during the greenwood county club meeting Tuesday night. The meeting will be at 4:30 p. m., Tuesday, Dec. 27, Hamilton, Kansas.
The group also discussed plans or a program to be presented at all greenwood county high schools bring the Spring vacation, Carol orbes, chairman of the club and college freshman, said.
US Schools Get Red Propaganda
Chicago —(U.P.)— A slick-paper Soviet propaganda publication is showing up in the mail at schools in scores of U. S. cities, but it is getting the cold shoulder from most educators, a United Press survey shows.
The Soviet Information Bulletin, published by the Russian embassy at Washington, appeared to be going chiefly to public high schools and some colleges. Officials said it was utopian-like conditions in Russia.
The survey showed that school authorities in most cities banned the magazine from the libraries and magazine racks when it appeared. Some asked it be removed from the mailing list. They said the embassy complied.
A few schools placed the bulletin in their libraries but warned students and teachers that it was propaganda and should be read with that in mind. The bulletin was banned at schools in San Francisco and Wichita.
Some Kansas City schools kept the bulletin in libraries. It was available in libraries at Oklahoma City university, the University of Southern California and the University of California at Los Angeles.
Diplemats feared that protests against distribution of the magazine may backfire. They said a swelling demand to bar the magazine from American schools could result in new curbs on distribution in Russia of the state department's magazine Amerika.
Rep. George H. Mahon, (D., Texas), has complained to the U. S. commissioner of education, Dr. Earl J. McGrath, that the embassy is trying to propagate Communism among American students. Dr. McGrath said there was nothing he could do about it.
ELDRIDGE GIFT SHOP
The state department's position is that this country cannot object to circulation of the official Soviet magazine as long as we distribute a comparable American publication in Russia.
At a meeting of the county chairmen Tuesday night Marvin Small, assistant alumni secretary, urged the county chairmen to keep pushing their county clubs. The chairmen were also urged to turn in their reports after each meeting. Allyn Brown, head of the county chairmen and College junior, presided over the meeting.
The magazine Amerika, an even fancier job than the U.S.S.R. information bulletin, is one of this country's few direct contacts with the Russian people. Though publication is restricted to 50,000 copies, the magazine is considered a valuable asset.

6 Die, 8 Injured As B-29 Crashes In New Mexico
Roswell, N. M., Dec. 16—(U.P.)—Air force officers investigated to learn if a B-29 superfort bomber that crashed killing six crewmen and injuring eight, had been reconditioned after the series of fatal crashes the past month that grounded the big craft.
The four-engine bomber plunged to earth Thursday night as it came in for a landing at Walker Air Force base after a routine training flight. The plane exploded and burned.
Five men were killed instantly and a sixth died later. Three other men were seriously injured. The four men suffered minor cuts and bruises.
Capt. A. H. Pyatt, base information officer, said the quick work of fire department squads and air force units saved the lives of the survivors.
It was the fifth crash involving a B-29 bomber since Nov. 11. A total of 33 air force men were killed in the mishaps that caused the air force to order all B-29's grounded so they had been "reconditioned."
Officers assigned to investigate Thursday night's crash admitted that they did not know whether they had incorrgone the reconditioning process.
"We only know the crash did not result from engine failure," they said. Captain Pyatt said he was "almost sure" the plane had been certified as airworthy, however.
The base operations office said the pilot, 1st Lt. Robert L. Eyman of Nassau, not raced into a trouble as he landed into the final leg of his landing approach.
Lieutenant Eyman was killed in the crash along with 1st Lt. Richard Leggio, 1st Lt. Robert Vandermuellen, Capt. Charles A. Whittock, and Capt. James R. Rosewell, and S/Sgt. Carmelli J. Canpata, New Britain, Conn.
Those injured seriously were S/ Sgt. Glen Howard Stoddard, Jr. Stoughton, Mass., Capt. Richard Buchanan, Mass., Capt. Richard Adria Ln. Edgell, Bristol, W.Va.
Captain Pyatt said it was "mir-raculous" more men weren't killed. The men who escaped with only minor injuries were Capt. William J. Karp, New York; Sgt. William S. Sauer, S淫师; Sgt. Robert L. Adams, Springfield, Ill.; P.f.c. William F. MacDonnell, Thomaston, Comm.; and P.f.c. Bobby E. Coffman, Mauckport, Ind.
The recent series of B-29 crashes began on Armistice Day when two men were killed near Brownburg Ind. Two more men were killed when a superfort crashed in the ocean off Bermuda Nov. 17, and five more in a crash at Tampa, Fla., the following day.

Prizes Awarded For Concessions
A group of high school and University students who sold concessions at the football games during the past season will be entertained at 7:30 p. m. today in the Pine room of the Union. Prizes furnished by several firms are to be awarded the top salesman, Marion A. Barlow, manager of the K. U. concessions, said.
First prize, a table model radio,
will be given to Daniel LaMaster;
College sophomore, for selling the
most Coca-cola. Frank Hipsher,
Tonganoxie High school, Tonganoxie,
won a Bulova wrist watch
for outstanding sales of Nesbitt
orange; Karl Heider, Lawrence
Memorial High school, will receive
two gallons of ice cream for out-
standing sales of ice-cream bars, and
Douglas Jost, Lawrence High school,
won $5 for outstanding sales of hot
dogs.
At the Homecoming game, Nov. 19, over 57,000 items were sold by the clerks and the hustlers. This included 1,600 cases of cold drinks, 70 gallons of coffee, 480 dozen ice-cream cups, 2,100 hot apples, 8,200 hot dogs and many apples, cigarettes, peanuts, nennants, and candy bars.
One hundred eighty three hustlers were employed in serving the bleachers, 45 clerks in the concession stands, and 55 others in preparing and distributing the various articles.
This year the K. U. concessions was prepared to serve as much coffee as the crowd could consume. A gas fired boiler and two steam kettles were installed in the food preparation unit, and arrangements were made to distribute 600 gallons of coffee.
During the five home games this fall 5,745 cases of cold drinks were sold,1,721 dozen ice cream bars, and over 21,000 hot dogs. Twenty-five tons of ice were used in cooling the bottled drinks.
"Iimagine opening 137,880 bottles and pouring the contents into paper cups," pointed out Mr. Barlow.
Steel Hike May Upset US Economy
Pittsburgh, Dec. 16—(U.P.)-The U.S. Steel Corp. increased the prices of its products an average of $4 a ton today, causing congressional economic experts to express fear of a new inflationary spiral.
Chairman Joseph C. O'Mahoney, D., Wyo., announced that his house-senate economic committee will investigate big steel's price boost sometime after Christmas and that corporation officials will be asked to explain the increases at a public hearing.
The price boosts are "completely unjustified," O'Mahoney said, because the industry is operating "on an extraordinarily high profit level." U.S. steel, he said is doing more to "injure the whole free enterprise system than all the crackpots have ever done."
Senator John J. Sparkman, D., Ala., a member of the economic committee, echoed the warning of labor experts that a price increase now might be "the stimulus for another round of price and wage increases."
U. S. Steel produces more than a third of the nation's steel. It's price hikes will increase costs in the manufacture of automobiles, refrigerators, stoves, washing machines and in numerous other steel-consuming fields. Whether the higher rates will increase the buying price of these consumer, goods could not be determined immediately, however.
Despite the congressional uprising, it was a virtual certainty that the other major steel firms would, before the end of the year, raise their prices along the pattern set by big steel.
In Detroit, the nation's automakers declined comment on the immediate effect of the steel increase on auto prices.
But K. T. Keller, president of Chrysler Corporation, admitted that "we buy steel, but if it costs more, we buy the cars are going to cost more."
Gov. And Mrs. Carlson Guests At Annual Christmas Revel
U. S. Steel's increases were the sharpest in the industry since July, 1948, when the corporation raised prices an average of $9.34 a ton. The new scales, U. S. Steel said, raise prices an average of 78 per cent over 1939 pre-war levels. Other commodities, exclusive of farm products, are up 92 per cent over 1939.
A program of music followed the announcement of the guests. It included a piano solo by Billie George, fine arts senior; a vocal solo by Ruth Lewis, College senior; violin and flute duet by Janet Lull, education senior and Janice Broad-sword, education junior; a vocal duet by Betty Byam, fine arts senior, and Marian Miner, fine arts sophomore; and a vocal solo with autoharp accompaniment by Betty Lou Richards, education senior.
Senator O'Mahoney, who said the boosts are unjustified because statistics show the industry is operating "on an extraordinarily high profit level," said Fairness would be invited to explain the increases at a public hearing before his committee.
The guests were seated around the bench-lined lounge with their Corbin hostesses standing attentively behind.
Ruth Brotherson and Kathryn Showalter, education seniors, played the parts of lord and lady. Miss Brotherson is president and Miss Showalter is vice-president of Corpus Christi College. Telen Maduros, College sophomore-
A trumpet fanfare announced each guest as he entered Corbin hall Thursday night to attend the annual Christmas revels. A lord and lady, court jester, pages, and court subjects helped create the mediaeval atmosphere which was the theme of the pageant.

Republicans Call For 1952 'Deal With Democrats
Washington, Dec. 16—(U.P.)-The old guard of the Republican party is calling today for a 1952 deal with Southern Democrats on a presidential candidate.
Republican national committee man Walter S. Hallanan, West Virginia, made the suggestion in an open letter to committee chairmar Guy G. Gabrielson.
Hallanan's letter piopped into widening and increasingly significant area of discussion. Sen. John W. Bricker recently proposed formation of a new party to lick the Democratic coalition created by FDE and now confidently led by President Truman.
From Bricker's public discussion of the idea came a suggestion that Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, now president of Columbia university and James F. Byrnes, former "new deal" stalwart from South Carolina should assume some leadership of such a move.
"Ike" and Sen. Robert A. Taff both have figured in speculation about possible presidential candidates upon whom Republican, anti-Truman Democrats migr'agree. Sen. Harry F. Byrd wouls also be a possibility.
The great barrier to any such combination has been the Southern tradition of hatred, now turned to a milder dislike, of the Republican party. The South does not forget that the birth of the G.O.P. led directly to the war between the states.
Hallanam canvassed some of the problems in his letter to Gabriel son. He rejected suggestions that the Republicans should adopt a new party name because of legal compilations and political tradition. But he added: "Fortunately, then seems to be a simple way that the same purpose can be achieved with out facing these legal hurdles. If the leadership of the Republican part and the dissident Democrats can agree on candidates, the problem would be solved. "Both parties could have agreed which might recognize both groun. In that case electoral votes of those states opposing the socialistic program of the 'fair deal' would all be counted for the same candidate. This would seem to me to be the practical and sensible approach to this problem."
Hallanan's plan to organize the anti-Truman forces in this country for united front opposition in 1971 will attract a lot of attention and give all hands cause to this. General Eisenhower is sure to give careful consideration.
His name fiures increasingly I political speculation. Disatche from President Truman's Key W vacation spot reported that crypt gazers in his party rate the genera as a candidate for the Republic nomination. That seems to be the consensus around here, too.
However, in Fort Worth, Tex yesterday, the General denied al "Talk will not make me a candidate, he said. He added that his only concern was in ideas and principles and their application to today's problems.

Carols Replace Lawyer's Whistles
HAROLD G. BARR
The long, low whistle usually heard from the steps of Green hall has given way to the yuletide spirit.
From 100 to 150 law students gather on the steps of their school at 9:50 and 10:50 a.m. and 12:40 and 1:50 p.m. to sing Christmas carols. They began Tuesday and plan to continue until vacation begins.
VARSITY
Their leader, Earle Brehmer, third-year law student, said they began the caroling the past year. The group was then accompanied by a trumpet and an accordion. This year, he said; the lawyers are without either and would especially welcome as an "honorary member" any student who could accompany them with a trumpet. They are using carol books given them by the Lawrence Sanitary dairy.

Hoopes Gives Christmas Talk
"Im allergic to strawberries, mice and slight effort," declared Helen Rhoda Hoopes, assistant professor emerita of English Tuesday evening. She spoke to members of the Bacteriology club at their annual Christmas party on the subject "The Christmas Spirit."
After delivering a whimsical account of her early childhood she gave a brief history of the New Testament.
"People today who are dealing with the Hebrews should read the Old and New Testament with great care in order to understand their thought patterns and values," she said. "The Hebrews current way of thinking is clearly displayed in these great writings."
The speaker exhibited a personal collection of Bibles, many of which were in foreign print.
"I spent three years reading the Bible, twice from cover to cover and I took notes during the whole process. It must be studied with great thought."
Miss Hoopes read various Bible passages which were connected with the Christmas story, then paused and gave stimulating "free translations and interpretations" applying them to the world today. She also read passages in Greek to demonstrate the "beauty in the sound" of the language.
The speaker finished by reading brief phrases from "First Christmas Ewe" by Alfred Domett and "The Kings Bread" by A. A. Milne, verbally portraying her characters.
Inter Co-op Council Promotes Movies
The Inter Co-op council resolved Tuesday to encourage cooperation among campus organizations in setting up a movie program. Films to be shown would include outstanding foreign movies and out-of-town productions. Bert Roland, graduate student and publicity chairman of the council

The Fieldhouse
"Allen Field house." That sounds pretty good to us.
Harry E. Morrow, sports editor of the Lawrence Daily Journal World, has come up with the suggestion that K.U.'s new field house be named in honor of Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, the University's basketball coach, now entering his thirty-third season here.
Newcomers to K.U. might not be familiar with "Phog" Allen's national reputation. Allen plays an important role in the history of basketball itself—he is one of the founders of the National Basketball Coaches' association; he was instrumental in founding the N.C.A.A. tournament; he served for many years on the National Rules committee.
He has made Kansas university a household word in athletic circles. His teams have won or shared 18 conference championships, have won two national championships and have run up the incredible record of 474 wins against only 168 losses.
"Phog" Allen has brought considerable fame to K.U. through the years. His name is the only one we can see on the new field house. The board of regents acts on suggestions in naming new buildings. How about a student petition to the board asking that the field house be named for "Phog" Allen, one of the basketball greats of America? —J.W.S.
Pile Of Junk
"C'mon, Tommy. There's an ol' pile of junk over by that fence," said George, a mop-headed boy of 10 years. George had a mean face and hard eyes.
"Okay," said Tommy.
"How d'ya know? There ain't much left," said Tommy, who was smaller than George, and much dirtier.
The two boys scrambled down a steep weed covered bank and ran to the remains of the car.
"It looks like a car. A Ford, I betcha!"
"Gee, there ain't much left," echoed George.
"Let's see if we kin crawl inside. We kin puttend it's an ambulance or a police car," said Tommy.
Tommy tried to squirm into the front seat through the smashed door.
"Ill push ya," said George.
"I can't git in," he said.
"No, don't! Cut it out. I'm stuck. Cut it out, will ya?" wailed Tommy.
"Nuts," said George.
Then George saw a scrap of paper on the ground, peeking from the December snow.
"Look, Tommy. What's this?" he asked.
The card read: University of Kansas, student identification card. There was a picture of a young man. Blood stained the signature.
"Gee," said George.
"Gee," echoed Tommy.

'Small Things'
"Faculty Meets With Menninger Group," said the headline, and we thought for a moment that our professors had been found out at last; however, it turned out to be just a small group of psychology teachers.
We read that Mount Oread will erode to nothingness in a few thousand years, and we hope that the campanile will be built sometime before the hill is gone.
We notice in the official bulletin that Der Deutsche Verein versammelt sich Donnerstag, and if they do, we want to know who will answer to the consequences.
Letter to the Editor: Dear Sir: It is obvious that the Kansan has embarked upon a smear campaign directed at the college women of America. The snide editorials and remarks about our abilities as homemakers are enough to turn one's tummy. If you men want wives who will labor over stoves all day and be able to talk of nothing but recipes, I hope you're just unlucky enough to end up with such wives. The Women of America will never be satisfied to return to their former status of slavery. Yours, Gwendolyn Z.
Santa Is 'In Dutch' With 5-Year-Old
Tyler, Texas.—(U.P)—A little boy's faith in Santa Claus has been shaken.

Proposed Plans To Double Size Of Student Union
Preliminary plans for two proposed additions to the Union, which will nearly double its present size will be finished and ready for approval early in January, said Ogden S. Jones, first vice-president of the board of directors of the Memorial corporation.
A report on their progress was made by George Beal, director of the University building program, at the final meeting of the board on Dec. 10.
To be built onto the north and south sides of the Union, the proposed million-dollar additions will house student activity offices, the recreation rooms, meeting rooms, and an addition to the cafeteria. The latter will free the ballroom from use as a cafeteria, so that it may be used for lectures and parties, Mr. Heal said.
The structure will be financed through bond issues and a $5 Union fee charged each student at registration each semester. This fee has been collected for five semesters and the Union fund now totals approximately $186,000.
It is hoped that the contract for construction will be awarded early next summer. The preliminary plans, which are being drawn by the A. R. Mann company of Hutchinson, must be approved by the executive board of the Memorial corporation, the Union operating committee, and Charles Marshall, state architect. They will be returned to the Mann company, which will draw up final plans and specifications. The final plans must be approved by the state architect and the board of regents of the University before they are presented for bids.

More Than 6,000 Persons Attend Christmas Vespers
By DALE S. ROMIG
A double brass quartet playing carols greeted the more than 6,000 persons who attended the 102nd All-Musical Christmas vespers at two performances Sunday in Hoch auditorium.
The single figure of Mary, without kings, angels, and shepherds and with a minimum of props clutching the scene, was impressive and beautiful.
The program, presented by the School of Fine Arts, opened with the organ prelude, "Les Cloches" (Lebeuge-Anderson), and ended with the choir recessional, "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing", a pleasant combination of music and well-designed and staged tableaux.
Preceding the above tableau, the A Cappella choir sang the poignant, "Sweet Little Boy Jesus," (Niles), with D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, conducting.
A unique combination of color and shadow provided a refreshing approach to the manger scene in the meat unified, "Sweet Little Boy Jesus."
The tableaux vivants, done by the departments of design, drawing, and painting were superb this year. The lighting, original costumes, and sets were a tribute to the ingenuity and ability of their originators.
Three committees, the executive, the Union operating, and the Union bookstore, work under the board. The eight members of the policymaking executive committee have full authority for the board excepting the election of officers. The chairman of this committee is the first vice-president of the board of directors. Other members are the president and treasurer of the board, the director of the Union, two other members of the board chosen by it, the president of the All Student Council, and another student opposite the sex of the A.S.C. president.

Its 19 members include the first vice president at the board as chairman, the president of the board, the director of the Union, five University faculty members chosen by the chancellor, three alumni, of which one is secretary of the Alumni association, and eight students chosen by the A.S.C., including its president and secretary.
Campbell, fine arts sophomore, sang the spiritual, "Rise Up and Foller" (Ringwald), with the A Cappella choir. His lyric, plaintive voice was impressive in the number.
While the offering for the Christmas vespers fund scholarship was being received by the Red Peppers, the University Symphony orchestra, directed by Russell L. Wiley, professor of band and orchestra, performed Howard Hanson's "Romantic Symphony." Frank Kress, fine arts sophomore, played the important French horn part in the Lento portion of the symphony.
Two other soles were by Reinhold Schmidt, baritone and Colin Campbell, tenor. Mr. Schmidt, an associate professor of voice, sang "O Men From the Fields" (Hughes), accompanied on the organ by Laurel Everette Anderson, professor of organ and theory.
Kitty Walter, fine arts senior, sang the soprano solo.
Members of the executive committee beside Irving Hill, president are Ogden S. Jones, first vice-president; L. C. Woodruff, second vice-president; and Ernest C. Friesen, third vice-president.

Carillon Group To Contract For 50 Bells
The board of trustees of the University of Kansas Memorial association Sunday authorized its carillon committee to enter a contract for a 50 bell carillon. The committee, after two years investigation and on recommendation of D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, recommended choice of John Taylor and company, Loughborough, England, as the foundry to cast and tune the bells.
Hugo T. Wedell, president of the K. U. Memorial association, said the financial campaign has progressed to a point where the trustees feel justified in ordering the bells and the devices which go with them to make up the carillon. Cost of the basic instrument will be a minimum of $78,000. Additional cost will depend on how many accessories are purchased.
Signing of the contract with the Constant Construction company of Lawrence, to build the bell tower in which the bells are hung will take place in a few days, if the plans of the Memorial trustees in their meeting Sunday carry through.
Since the Memorial completion campaign was started Nov. 1, when the amount needed to cover estimated costs stood at $13,654.51, gifts have come in totalling $7,620. The remaining amount necessary to complete the project enough can be obtained soon to let the contract on the basic part of the bell tower the ground can be broken by or before the first of the year.
The scenic driveway running along the edge of Mt. Oread past the base of the campanile or bell tower is also a part of the Memorial. It is well advanced in construction, which is being done by the National Association for association funds to be assigned to that project, at least the basic part of it, have already been collected and set aside.
Adjuncts of the Memorial still to be provided by sponsors include doorways decorated with sculptured bronze figures, plaques carrying bas-relief replicas of the bells and the inscriptions on_the bells, the Gold Star roll of names to be carved in Virginia Greenstone, lighting equipment for flood lighting the campanile, striking mechanism for time signals from the carillon, and plantings along the driveway.
Postmasters In For Bad Time In Towns With Xmas Names
Washington—(U.P.)—If you don't believe the Christmas season is upon us—just look at the map and the postmarks on your holiday cards.
There are places like Christmas, Fla.; Christmas Cove, Maine; Santa Claus, Ind.; Gift, Miss.; Candlewax, Va.; Jerusalem, Ohio; Barnstable, Mass.; Wisman, Ark.; What Cheer, Iowa; Balsam, Minn.; Noel, Colo.; Angeles, Calif.; among others. About 40 such towns in all.
These towns are included in a Christmas map exhibit at the library of congress. The show features maps from around the world, with the emphasis on Palestine. Jerusalem by the man division of the library.
Walter W. Ristow is acting head of the map section and is assisted by Mr. Maud Cole and James Van Storv.
The post office department reports that the towns with Christmas-like names give their postmasters a bad time. Some of them are so small they don't even have a post office. But the ones which do really catch it.
Take Santa Claus, Ind., for instance.
The government allows the postmaster just so much money for extra help during the holiday season, to take care of the added burden of sending out the Christmas mail.
But a couple of decades ago people caught onto the idea of mailing big bundles of their Christmas cards to Santa Claus, Ind., to get them postmarked from the unusual town.
The postmaster there once told me he was in a fine old fix. His office force wasn't big enough to handle the load. He himself worked day and night because each of the letters which came in had to be postmarked. He called in all of his relatives and paid them off with a big Christmas dinner financed out of his pocket.

CORE Sells $397 In Meal Tickets
Members of the Committee on Racial Equality sold meal tickets amounting to $397 to be used in a campaign against racial discrimination in restaurants.
The committee plans to present the final amount to any restaurant on or near the campus which will co-operate in the campaign. When this is completed, the hotel may be valid at the particular restaurant and holders may use them there.
The Lawrence League for the Practice of Democracy has voted unanimously to support the campaign Walter Conrad, publicity chairman, said.
A committee of Walter Conrad graduate student, Elmer Rusco, College senior, and Helen Ulatowski graduate student, was appointed to get local organizations to help in promoting the campaign. The organizations are the Lawrence League for the Practice of Democracy, All Student Council, Ministerial alliance, and the American Federation of Teachers.
CORE. hopes that representatives from these organizations will be able to convince some local restaurant and food worker to work and would be good business.
Meal ticket selling will continue until Wednesday, Jan. 4. when C.O.R.E. will meet again. Negotiations with a local restaurant owner are expected to commence Thursday, Jan. 5, 1950.

Seniors Plan Day In May
The committee will meet to make further plans after the Christmas vacation, announced Stanley Englund, engineering senior, who is chairman of the class day committee.
Several dams to be built in the area will inundate large areas "in one of the richest archaeological sites in the western plains, where very few excavations have been made." Dr. Smith said. He is assistant curator of the Museum of Natural History.
If the plans materialize. Dr. Smith will take about 12 students on an expedition next summer to excavate some of the sites he examined the past week.
Representatives of the Smithsonian institution and the National Park service accompanied Dr. Smith on the inspection tour of the Missouri river valley from Vermillion, S. D. to a point 30 miles north of Pierre, S.D.
"The sites are largely remains of earth-lodge villages inhabited by sedentary Indian tribes over a period of several centuries prior to the advent of the white man in the great plains." Dr. Smith said. The Smithsonian institution has located over 200 such archaeological sites.
house depressions with one side enclosed by a fortification ditch. The site dates from an unknown period before white contact. Fragments of pottery indicate it belongs to a heretofore unknown culture.
"A Yanktonai Sioux family is living on one site in a log cabin. We can study present day Indians while excavating prehistoric remnants of earlier Indians.
"Some of the sites are fortified and some are not. The fortifications present a historical problem. Are the fortified sites those of original inhabitants protecting themselves from roving tribes, or are they advance fortifications of invaders?
"In some burial mounds were bones of Indians with arrow heads imbedded in them."
The proposed project is being considered by the Museum of Natural History at the University, the Smithsonian institution and the National Park service.

Clarence A. Resch, Jr., engineering freshman, plays a recording of the opera, "Faust" that is being presented on the program "Opera Box". Resch is full-time KFKU engineer.
KFKU finished its first year of operation from its new studio in the engineering experiment building south of Marvin hall in July. Sharing radio station WREN's transmitter in Topeka, KFKU broadcast a total of 548 hours during the past year.
Miss Mildred Seaman, program director, explained that the station broadcasts mostly cultural and educational programs. "Opera Box," a triphot trip to an opera performance, "Four-State News Review," with Emil Telfel, assistant professor of journalism, reading from a stu-
Wespers' are some of the features that go out over the airways and attract large audiences.
The modern studio is equipped with a library of 2,000 records, two R.C.A. transcription tables, three recording machines, and the later simulation imitation Clarence A, Resch, Jr., engineering freshman, is full-time engineer.
As is the practice of most large stations nowadays, programs are recorded on tape and broadcast later except "Vespers" which is a "live" program. "Opera Box," a weekly feature at 9:30 p.m. each Friday, is narrated by Richard G. Beahm, fine author of "The Woman Nounceers" are John A. Bannigan, journalism junior, and Jack N. Stewart, College sophomore.
KFKU made its first broadcast in 1923 with only 500-watts power. The premier program was marked with confusion because of a last minute substitution for the planned program. A male quartet was rushed in and gave an outstanding performance.
Letters had been sent to University alumni throughout North America requesting that they try to pick up the program and write back the result. Most distant point of reception was Oklahoman Oklahoma City. A listener in Los Angeles, Calif., wrote that he heard the program faintly.
KFKU can be received at 1250 k.c.
on the radio dial. The transmitter in
Topeka has 5,000-watts power.
KFKU broadcasts from 2:30 p.m. to
3 p.m. and 9:30 to 10 p.m. Mondays
through Fridays. Sunday "Vespers"
are broadcast four times yearly.

Kansas Cagers Lose 64 To 54 To Duquesne
Going into the third period the Jayhawkers held a two point lead. They then scored seven quick points to run up a six point lead. At this point the Dukes caught fire and hit the cords for 17 consecutive points to win going away.
The Kansas Jahawkers blew a six point lead in the last period Saturday, and were defeated 64 to 54 by a hot shooting Duquesne university basketball team.
Duquesne led 31 to 23 at the half. Clyde Lovellette, Kansas center, tied Duquesne's Ed Dahler, forward, for scoring honors with 23 points.
Lovellette, 6 foot 9 inch sophomore, hit nine field goals and five free throws, and was also outstanding on defense.

1950 Basketball Crown Has Found No Owner Yet
New York, Dec. 19—(U.P.)—Who will field the standout basketball team of 1950? Kentucky? Already defeated. Oklahoma A. and M?. Already defeated. Bradley? Already defeated. San Francisco? Same story.
And so it went pretty much down the line today, with the wax still shiny in the hard wood season. True, some of 1949's major fives have not yet tasted defeat—but not even they have been impressive.
Perhaps the one best bet for a standout team is City College of New York, which to the moment has not lost a game in five starts. But C.C.N.Y., although obviously a superior club, must face a rugged Madison Square Garden schedule which could lay any five low, so it is really too early to pass judgment.
San Francisco—the Invitation Tournament champions were bounced off in their first start—by San Jose State, 43 to 18. Since the they have downed Nevada and UU in the third round, indication of things to come, or a fluke. The next two weeks will tell as the Dons tour the East.
Now to check off last year's tians;
Bradley—with Paul Uruh nushted as one of this season's greats, Bardley rolled over Houston, Iowa State, Nebraska and T.C.U. Then came Purdue, and Bradley lost Saturday, 71 to 65, despite Uruh's 19 points. Oklahoma A.A.M.—Basketball's freeze faction also was coasting along comfortably until it was outiced by Long Island, 38 to 31.
Kentucky—the N.C.A.A. champions started off well enough with easy triumphs over Indiana Central and Western Ontario, but the first big team they met was St. John's and they lost, 69 to 58.
St. Louis university—This club has not been beaten. In three starts, it has downed South Dakota, Texas A.M. & T.C.U. But Ed Macauley is gone, and so is the spark he provided. The St. Louis supporters were willing to concede the tough times ahead, despite the unbeaten record.
Thus, basketball may have an entirely new set of champions this year, and maybe no standout team at all. There are dark horses, however. North Carolina State, still the power of the Southern conference, has not lost, and Tulane is unbeaten in its challenge of Kentucky's long Southeastern conference supremacy.
The University high school basketball team defeated Linwood high 47 to 21 Dec. 16 while the second team was defeated 36 to 29.
UHS Cage Team Defeats Linwood
The next University high game will be with Jarbalo at Jarbalo Dec. 20. The next home game will be with Tonganoxie at 7:30 p.m. Dec. 22 in Robinson annex. Both the first and second teams play. Admission is 50 cents.
The Tri County league standings to date are; University High, won 2, lost 0; Lansing, won 2, lost 0; Tonganoxie, won 1, lost 0; Easton, won 1, lost 1; Jarbalo, won 0, lost 1; Basehor, won 0, lost 2; Linwood, won 0, lost 2.

15 Game Slate In Five Nights Faces Big 7
By UNITED PRESS
A 15-game schedule in five nights starting tonight will be faced by the basket teams of the Big Seven conference.
The heavy firing, marking the end of a four-week period of tune-up tilts, will be followed by the annual Big Seven holiday tournament in Kansas City Dec. 27 through 30. Michigan of the Big Ten will be the eighth team to fill out the bracket.
Then comes the conference chase with the league teams mainly occupied in the games that will decide the 1950 championship.
27
A fancy-shooting K-State team looms at present in the pre-conference guessing as the most likely to take the crown.
With Clarence Brannum and Rick Harman in mid-season form, the Manhattan, Kan., men added two more victims during the week, mighty West Virginia and Baylor's Bears.
Colorado stayed undefeated in the same period, crushing Southern Methodist at Boulder, 71 to 48.
Clyde Lovellette finds himself surrounded as he goes up for a one handed push shot in the Cincinnati game, Dec. 15. Players in the picture are: Jim Holstein (27), Al Rubenstein (21), Cincinnati; and Clyde Lovellette (16) K.U.
Bradley's potent five handed Nebraska its first defeat of the season, 64 to 54, but the Huskers nipped Iowa State, 60 to 54 to take the only conference game played to date, and beat Baylor Saturday night 69 to 55
Most action this week among conference teams will be seen by Colorado, Missouri and Iowa State, each booked for three contests. Nebraska is each, while Kansas State and Oklahoma have single engagements.
Longnits four games are: Colorado State at Nebraska; Oklahoma at NY. (New York); S.M.U. at Colorado; Northwestern at Iowa State.
Other games are scheduled for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights. Ther. Christmas and until the Kansas City tournament.

The Congenial Hitchhiker
Say, buddy, can you take an extra passenger in your car when you go home for vacation? Sure, you can squeeze him in. This is the time of year to be generous and help others. Help him out. You'd better hear about some of his odd quirks of personality, though, before you start out on your vacation trek.
You have to entertain this passenger. He likes to see a bottle passed around in the car. And he won't be happy unless you have your share.
You'll find out right away that he's a speed fiend. "Push down that accelerator," he'll say. "Let 'er go!"
He loves highway curves—particularly blind ones. He'll want to go around them fast. He'll want to pass all the cars on the curves.
"Speed! Speed! Speed!" he'll yell. "Don't be such a sissy. You've got as much right to the highway as anyone else."
He'll tell you to speed up on the hill and pass that "buggy" going up.
If you're driving at night, he'll jeer at you for your concentration on the right side of the highway and the ditch at the side. He'll tell you to loosen up, to turn around now and then to crack a joke with the others.
"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Why waste time on the road when you could be with your family or your best girl at home?"
If you get caught in a blizzard or a sleet storm,he'll tell you to quit worrying about the mid-stripe—to let the oncoming drivers do the worrying.
"You have to go faster than this! We've been hours on the road."
But in spite of your passenger, you might get home safely. And you might get your passengers safely home. And then again, you might not.
Your car might be that crumpled heap of metal in the ditch. It might be,that twisted wreckage gouged into that telephone pole.
That is, all but one passenger. He won't be in the papers. He doesn't have a family. He had his ride—and his fun.
But—he might need an introduction. His name is death.
-Virginia Fros
Matter Of Faith
If you ask most people about the matter, they will tell you that Santa Claus has gone the way of the stork. Especially if you ask college students. Most likely they will tell you that they do believe in Santa, but if you press the question seriously, they will snort at you for even expecting any answer other than "NO!"
In fact, anyone you talk to on the subject for any length of time will end up in a questioning argument with you.
"What proof do you have that there is a Santa Claus?" they will ask. "Show me just one thing that would be concrete evidence to that effect."
Just such questions serve as perfect examples of what is wrong with the American people of today. They think that they must have concrete proof of everything that they would believe in. And that is where they are in error.
That is why there are so few really religious people in America today. Because belief in Santa is just like belief in God. You can't offer logical, conclusive and physical proof that such exists; you just have to have faith in such matters.
To achieve faith in anything, God or Santa Claus, is a relatively easy matter. All that is necessary is to forget all questions your intellect might raise about the subject and repeat to yourself a couple of hundred times: "I believe in Santa Claus: I have faith that there is a Santa Claus. . . . I believe in Santa Claus. . . I have faith that there is a Santa Claus.' . . I believe in Santa Claus.
—Nelson Ober
Reed Discusses Semantics And Relation To Philosophy
Man is the only animal that can talk himself in and out of situations that don't exist, said Dr. Robert L. Reed, council adviser to the International Society of General Semantics. Dr. Reed spoke at a meeting of the General Semantics club Thursday.
"When persons ask me to define semantics I give them Socrates' advice, 'Know thyself'. That's what semantics is about," Dr. Reed said
"The most important part of semantics is a test to measure man's change of attitude. There is a startling amount of confusion and disorder in the world today—wars and conflicts, as well as widespread parts of the world have sought to determine the causes of these disorders," he said.
Dr. Reed said that the confusion is in the thinking of man. Philosophy is the attempt to see life clearly and wholly.
Partially quoting from James Harvey Robinson, Dr. Reed said, "Advance in human intelligence and insight depends on one's ability to take in questions and reconsider that which he has formerly taken for granted."
"Man is progressing because he realizes there is a problem. Another good sign is that man is questioning the method of problem solving," Dr. Reed said.

Dear Editor-
Editorial Topics
Dear Editor:
It is well to editiorialize about world politics, John L. Lewis, and the Truman administration. College students certainly should have information and opinions about these all-important topics. But college students should not occupy themselves with these far-off issues to the exclusion of local ones, where very often direct action can effectively be taken to remedy unjust situations. Charity begins at home, to quote a trite saying.
For instance, how many students are aware of the racial segregation that exists here in Lawrence? No restaurant on the hill will serve any Negro students, not because some of the owners object to serving Negroes, but because the owners are afraid their businesses will fall off if they do so. What can be done about this? We can buy meal tickets that C. O. R. E. is selling in $1 denominations to show the owners that we would support them if they terminated their unjust and inhuman practice of discrimination.

New Policy
Dear Sir:
As a chemistry major, I suppose people would expect crack-pot ideas (and this is in no way a reflection on in, or about the chemistry department); yet I believe it is time for the U. S. to adopt a policy of isolation in European affairs and begin a policy of developing a grand culture at home. We should consider ourselves no longer a great power country, but rather a good country—to be esteemed on a par with such countries as Brazil, Argentina, Canada, Australia, and other such countries that do not consider it a dire necessity to spend billions on E. C. A. and E. R. P. The danger is imminent—look at our fantastic national debt and our increasing lack of ability to balance the national budget each year. The only other course would be to plunge into a war of aggression, and although I am anti-Communist, we won't do that. So let's just give Russia the pleasure of thinking she's pretty much it, and in the meantime, get our financial ducks in a row at home; and continue to develop a really swell place to live here as our heritage shows so clearly we have done in the past.
You say what if Russia would attack us? Well, what if she would attack countries like the ones already mentioned? In our case, I don't believe she would ever live through the guerilla war where she seems to be doing quite nicely in a costly (to us) cold war!

Students To Earn Pilot Licenses
Civil m
A flight program approved by the Civil Aeronautics authority will make it possible for members of the Jawahk flying club to obtain a pilot's license in a minimum of 35 hours total flying time, said William Simpson, professor of aeronautical engineering.
He was speaking at the first meeting of the club, held Dec. 15, in the Aeronautical Engineering buildings than 85 students attended the meeting.
Professor Simpson said the main objective in the program will be to teach students to fly with the emphasis on safety. Club members will be able to earn a private pilot's license in one semester. The exact cost of the course has not been determined, but Professor Wilson said it would be very low. The brevity of the course and low cost to members are among the chief advantages of the club, he said.
The courses are offered for college credit. The ground school course, Aeronautical Engineering 45, gives two hours credit, and the flying course, Aeronautical Engineering 47, which is a private instruction course, gives one hour credit.
Club members who earn pilot licenses will be able to rent planes at the local airport at a special fee rate. The flying course will offered only during the spring semester each year. If enough students who earn licenses in the spring are interested, a cross-country flying program may be started next fall.
Professor Simpson said that between 1939 and 1944, K. U, had one of the most outstanding flying programs in the country with an excellent safety record. During this period more than 2,000 pilots were trained here.

Library Has Card Display
If you're interested in seeing how the people of 21 other nations say "Merry Christmas", visit the main corridor, second floor of Watson library and see the unusual display of greeting cards.
The greeting cards were hand printed by Robert Powers, College sophomore. The idea is the result of work by Miss Esther Norman and Miss Martha Rupp, reference librarian.
Miss Norman says that the display is the result of work of the entire staff. And it involved contacting an individual and her family members to collect, the greetings.
Although the project includes only 21 languages at present, personnel are gathering greetings in still more languages to add to the collection. The Christmas greetings are printed white cards and decorated with holly. The color theme for the exhibit is the traditional green and red.
The cards are neatly arranged and set around two decorated candles in the glass display case.
Quill Club Trend Will Be Out Soon

Wesley Group Receives Gift Of $50,000
The Wesley Foundation at the University has received $50,000 from the estate trust of the late Mrs. Louela F. Stewart of Wellington for the construction of a Wesley foundation student-center building.
7.
This was announced Sunday morning at the First Methodist Church, one of several in Edwin F. Price, director of Wesley foundation at the University.
Four other gifts totaling approximately $6,000 were given to Methodist organizations in Kansas and Oklahoma after the war in honor of Mrs. Stewart
A check for $50,000 was given to the Rev. Mr. Price Dec. 17 in a brief ceremony at the Wellington Methodist church.
In 1928 Mrs. Stewart gave $25,
000 to the Wesley foundation at K.
II
The Rev. Mr. Price said the proposed building will cost approximately $100,000 and that additional costs may be incurred before the building can be started.
It will be built near the campus if possible. The Rev. Mr. Price pointed out that the new student center will serve as a meeting place and a worship center for Methodist students. Study and conference rooms and recreational facilities will also be included in the building. Several scholarships have been established at the University through Mrs. Stewart's estate. While living she contributed to educational and religious organizations, particularly in Kansas.
Her son, John T. Stewart '11 died the past April. He contributed money for the building of Danforth chapel.
Mr. Stewart served for several years on the board of trustees of Wesley foundation at K.U. Earlier this year he ran for vice-president of the Alumni association of the University.

Spanish Girl Amazed At American Informality
Rv DORIS CREENRANK
M. T. S. P. A. R. E. R. D. I. N. O. W. Y.
BY DORIS GREENBANK
A 16-year-old Spanish war orphan arrived from England the past week-end in time to spend the Christmas holidays with her adopted parents in Lawrence.
Kansan photo by Bob Blank.
After a two-year separation, Professor and Mrs. Domingo Ricart were reunited with their daughter, Hermina, when she arrived at the Union station in Kansas City, Mo. on a crowded train to New York on the Queen Mary before boarding the train which carried her to the Middle West.
Mr. and Mrs. Domingo Ricart show Herminia (center), Spanish war orphan, the Christmas greetings they have received at their apartment.
"At last, all three of us are together again," exclaimed the delighted assistant professor of Spanish who has been trying to bring his daughter to this country ever since he and his wife left England. It took a special bill passed by Congress Oct. 18 (two days before Herminia's birthday) to enable her to come to the United States. The law which kept her from entering the country on the non quota immigrant visa with her foster parents concerned the fact that she was an adopted child, once a Spanish Civil war orphan.
Looking very American in a blue satin dress that Mr. and Mrs. Ricart bought for her in Kansas City Dec. 17, Hermina was kept busy Sunday by dozens of interested friends and neighbors of the Ricarts who were eager to see her. With much poise, the black-haired girl greeted the callers in her new home, apartment 13-E of the University Sunnyside housing pro. She was surprised to find such informality in the American way of meeting people. The English never have so much to say when they are introduced to strangers, she explained.
Having attended a private girls' school in England where she shared a room with five other girls, Herminia was very excited to see the private bedroom her parents had prepared for her. Mrs. Ricart has been working for three months to matching blue draperies, bheadspread,
and dressing table skirt. The room's walls are painted pink. A K.U. pennant hangs on one side of the room and a U.S. map on the other. Playthings which belonged to Herminia long ago, such as a teddy bear and a miniature doll, were placed there to make the newcomer feel the room is really her own.
"It's just like the bedrooms I've seen in American movies," said the modest Spanish girl as she shyly revealed a dimpled grin. Her parents explained that Herminia did not want to turn out the lights at bedtime the first night she was home because "her room was so pretty she wanted to look at it."
The Ricarts have not addressed any Christmas cards, for they wanted to wait until Herminia could be here to sign them. Mistletoe and evergreen sprigs lend a Christmas atmosphere to their 'Sunnyside'
apartment. In her soft British acChristmas lights, a custom which is strange to her.
"I wasn't expecting so much," Herminia said in answer to questions about her first impression of America. She enjoyed her long trip, and was not in the least frightened by traveling alone.
"The trains in England go slower and rattle more," she said. "Over there, you might travel all day and not know anyone on the train, but here the people are much friendlier. I had a very nice time chatting with a girl my own age on the way from New York."
American men look big to Herminia, who describes their dress as much less conservative than that of the English. The typical sweater-kirt combination worn by coeds even seems a little strange to her.
delight in seeing so many outdoor cent, the dark-eyed girl told of her English girls wear three-quarter or full-length stockings instead of bobbie sox. Those who attend board schools wear unifroms, such as blades dresses with white collar and cuffs or dark skirts with white blouses. They do not wear make-up.
"She won't have to wear uniforms to school anymore," sa idMirr, Ricart, who seemed even more excited than her daughter. Herminia will start attending classes in the University High school after the holidays. She has been corresponding with 17-year-old Helen Olmsted, a senior in Liberty Memorial High School. The two pen pals have not yet seen one another.
Music and languages are Herminia's chief interests in school. She has studied piano and includes such compositions as Beethoven's "Pathetique" or "Moonlight Sonata" among her repertoire. She already speaks French in addition to English and Spanish, but would like to learn Russian and German, too.
The Spanish girl with an English education is not at all concerned about changing schools and friends. "I am used to it and won't mind at all," she commented. Her school chums in Surrey, England, were very excited about Herminia's trip. "They begged me to take them along in my pocket," she chuckled.
"Everything is just the opposite here." Herminaia commented in gard to the fact that American automobiles travel on the right rather than the left side of the street. "I'll get hit by a car in crossing the street if I'm not careful." Lawnrices buses seem strange to Herminaia, who is accustomed to seeing "double deckers."
After, generously passing Mackintosh's candies (strictly British) to her guests, Herminia bid them goodbye, for she was leaving to attend her first program at the University, the Christmas vespers.
KU Post Office In Christmas Rush
R. C. Abraham, superintendent on the University Post Office, reports that the Christmas "rush" season in mailing is reaching its climax. The volume of parcels being mailed is about twice as large as usual. Mr. Abraham has sold 200,000 two-cent stamps have been sold for Christmas cards.
The post office will remain open through Friday of this week, but business is expected to fall off sharply with the beginning of Christmas vacation.
Christmas Program Will Be Tuesday
The Negro Student's association will present a Christmas program at 8 p.m. Tuesday in the auditorium of Strong hall. This will become an annual event of the association.
The program will include instrumental numbers by Ernest Lewis and Blanche Pierson, fine arts sophomores, and Dorsey Evans fine arts freshman; vocal solos by LeRoy Brimsey, college sophomore, Berkshire College, music professor; Ivory Leaf Pledge club of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority.
Other features of the program will be a dance routine by Opal Fleming, fine arts junior, and Geneva Evans, fine arts freshman; Christmas Carol; John O'Brien; Caitlin College junior and president of the Negro Student's association.
Jacquelyne Shivers, College sophomore, is program chairman. Arthur C. Ford, College senior, will be master of ceremonies.
Law Wives Hold Christmas Party
The public is invited.
Three readings, two of them written by Cornelia Otis Skinner, were given by Edith Williamson, education director at a Chalmers party of the Law. Wives held Dec. 15.
Following the readings, the group sang Christmas carols and had an exchange of gifts.
Miss Meguiar Hopes 1920 Styles Do Not Return
Are the 1920's styles going to return? Why did the Alpha Delta Pi's leave their circular staircase when they remodeled their house?
These were two of the questions asked of the gracious-looking little lady with white hair and snapping brown eyes. She was Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, former advisor of women and present assistant professor of home economics. Miss Meguiar held the position as advisor to women for 12 years until she retired July 1, 1946. She was followed by Miss Margaret Habein who took the title of dean of women.
Concerning the rumor that the 1920 fashions were cominb back soon, the charming lady only said that she hoped they wouldn't, but that she had seen women do some strange things.
Miss Meguiar's home is her hobby. With unusual skill she makes use of many antiques. Two ornamented brass oil lamps have been converted into electric lamps for her living room. A cobbler's apprentice bench for a small boy of about 12 has been mounted into a coffee table. And an old cherry baskettail belt. Henry Truex Fraser in Virginia in 1839 and brought to Indiana in a covered wagon takes a prominent corner in the dining room.
Miss Meguiar and her mother were at dinner the night before the house was to be completely remodeled. Their exclamations over the gently curving old staircase helped persuade the sorority members to keep the remembrance of the Civil War days. It has now became one of their product show-points.
Miss Meguiar's appreciation of fine antiques which have an interesting background was in some part responsible for the saving of the Alpha Delta Pi's circular staircase.
With amazing youthfulness and vitality Miss Meguiar has shown herself interested in the progress that women have made in the last 20 to 30 years. She commented that she is not averse to facing foremost states in furthering equal rights and opportunities for women. The University, Miss Meguiar
Guidance Bureau Will Not Close
The guidance bureau will be open during the Christmas holidays for those students who have scheduled aptitude tests, announced William Cottle, guidance counselor.
With the exception of Dec. 26, and Jan. 2, students will have the opportunity to complete apitude tests over the entire vacation. Interviews for counseling may also be made for sometime during the holidays providing registration is completed before Wednesday.
Confidence Needed To Sell Stocks
The most important reasons for technical training in all departments of the investment banking business in a large investment house, is to give the trainee confidence in the securities he will later offer the public on behalf of his firm.
That was the advice A. E. Weltner, president and Kansas City resident manager of the A. E. Weltner and company, incorporated, Kansas City, Mo., gave business residents Dec. 15.
Mr. Weltner described the training and wage policies of the large investment house. He emphasized the advantages of general business experience for work in investment banking and experience in investment banking for any other line of business.
said, has done much to help women become useful, interested citizens.
Miss Meguiar taught at Pennsylvania State college from 1910 to 1913 and the University of Texas from 1914 to 1917. In 1917 she came to the University of Kansas.
Women are satisfied without sororities at Stanford university, B. Quincy Morgan, professor emeritus of German at Stanford, told a student-faculty coffee forum recently. The forum was sponsored by the Associated Women Students.
No Sororities At Stanford
Mr. Morgan explained that the tension built up during the time women were waiting to pledge a sorority caused much concern.
Mr. Morgan said he believed that sororities and fraternities had misused opportunities for leading and helping new students.
He explained that there had been Greek politics on the Stanford campus before the change, but that students now were active in campus elections under a less strict political set up.
R. Paul Brottsman, assistant professor of social work, expressed the belief that "you can't lay the blame for their misuse on power completely at the door of the fraternity.
Union Holds Open House
The first of three afternoons of open house at the Union was held Sunday after the afternoon Vesper service.
Hot Wassail, a hot, spiced beverage, was served on a table decorated with miniature Santa Claus, reindeer, and red ribbon. Assisting were Nancy Dennen, fine arts freshman; Jane Hanna, College sophomore; and Dorothy Freeman, College junior; and Robert Standerdwick, College sophomore.
Open house will be held from 2-5:30 p.m. today and from 2-4:30 p.m.
Tuesday. Members of Delta Delta social sorority will sing carols from 5-5:30 p.m. today in the main lounge of the Union. Hot water will be served both days.

World Powers Schedule Talks On Atom Control
Lake Success, N. Y., Dec. 20—(U.P.) Atomic experts of the Big Five powers and Canada were scheduled today to receive new proposals for a world atomic control plan from Brigadier General Carlos P. Romulo, president of the United Nations General Assembly.
Resuming their secret discussions after a lay-off of more than a month while the General Assembly considered the problem of atomic energy and weapons, the experts also were expected to receive suggestions from Sir Benegal N. Rau, chief of the Indian delegation to the UN.
The General Assembly on Nov. 23 passed a resolution asking the six experts to continue their consultations and "to explore all possible avenues and examine all concrete suggestions with a view to determining whether they might lead to an agreement on world atomic control.
In a dozen previous meetings, neither Russia nor the West gave any indication of withdrawing their insistence that only the plan that involved opposing side supports its workable as a world atomic control system.
Romulo, whose terms as General Assembly president expired technically when the 59-nation body adjourned its fourth session on Dec. 10, said earlier that he intended to keep in touch with the U.N.'s progress on some of his "pet" projects, of which atomic control was upper-most from the time he took office on Sept. 20.
Midway in the assembly session, Romulo sent a personal appeal to each of the six powers—who are permanent members of the U.N.'s atomic energy commission—asking them to make a new approach toward finding agreement on a control plan.
The closed-door sessions of the Big Six began early last autumn after the atomic energy commission—which comprises the countries which are members of the security council of the United States of America until there is some indication that the big powers can agree on a basis for a world atomic plan.
The 12-nation trusteeship voted Monday to empower its president, Roger Garreau of France, to review the situation in Jerusalem, designated last week by Israel as its capital, and to present his findings as a working paper on the internationalization of the holy city when the council meets for its regular 1950 session at Geneva on Jan. 19.
SAC Clubs, Faculty Attend Reception
At a reception given by the Statewide Activities commission Dec. 15 Otis "Bud" Hill, chairman of the commission, thanked the faculty and students in Statewide Activities SAC members said the conference will be used by numerous county clubs to publicize the University in their high school.
Hill announced that the county clubs have been divided into five areas, each area headed by a chairman who will oversee and report on county clubs in his area. The five chairmen are: Carol Krehbiel, Charles Henson, Marvin Ravshi, College sophomores; Louise Delay, College junior, Alfred Morris, business senior.
Karmen Edwards, fine arts junior, is the new art director for the S.A.C. Richard Milner, engineering freshman, has replaced Mary Elizabeth Hollingberg, College junior, as out-of-state chairman.

Chicago. Dec. 20—(U.P.)-The National Safety council has issued some tips to Mr. and Mrs. America on ways to prevent wintertime accidents on slippery streets and sidewalks:
1. Remove snow or slush from sidewalks before it forms into ice.
2. Spread sand or fine cinders on icv areas.
3. Remove icicles hanging from doorwalls and porches.
5. Make sure windshield wipers and defrosters are working properly.
4. Drive automobiles slow in fog, rain or snow and apply brakes with a light pumping action.
6. Use tire chains on ice or snow.
The council said pedestrians should be careful at any time of the year but that they were in more danger during the winter.
Lewis To Face New Injunction In Trustee Battle
Washington, Dec. 20—(U.P.)—John L. Lewis faced a possible new court injunction today for refusing to let the soft coal industry have the trustee it wants on the United Mine Workers' welfare and retirement fund.
The industry's choice is Charles I. Dawson, Louisville, Ky., attorney. He was picked by a majority of Northern, Western and Southern coal mine owners to represent them on the multi-million dollar fund. Lewis has called him a "mere inter-loper" and twice has refused to let him sit in as industry trustee.
Dawson went to court late Monday for an injunction to force Lewis to change his mind. It was not his habit, he said, to submit "tamely" to any invasion of his rights.
The fund is financed by a 20-cent-s-a-ton royalty on all soft coal mined for commercial sale or use. Lewis currently is seeking to boost the tax to 35 cents a ton and thus far has gotten it in new contracts with only a small fraction of the industry. He is expected to announce later today that more companies have signed.
Dawson also asked the court to prohibit Lewis from spending an estimated $13,000,000 (M) now in the fund.

Christmas To Be Bright For Student In Hospital
Rusty's family will visit him for Christmas. Since he has been in the
By STEVE FERRO
Everett "Rusty" Corwin will spend Christmas in bed at Watkint Memorial hospital, but he is not dismayed. His Christmas will be celebrated in gala surroundings.
A small Christmas tree has been placed in his room. Nurses and employees have added decorations until it matches any larger one in beauty. The tree is a gift from Dr. Ralph I. Canautes, director of the University health service.
During the Christmas vacation a phonograph will be available to him. He hopes to get a number of records, including some Christmas hymns.
Rusty, an engineering sophomore was accidentally wounded in the leg by a shotgun blast while hunting near Lone Star lake when confronted to Watkins hospital and will probably be released in January.
hospital his mother has come from Kansas City, Mo., each week to see him.
"Terrific," is his description of the treatment and service he is receiving at Watkins hospital. "Everyone here treats me swell."
Rusty, red headed and freckle faced, is now sporting a thick, one inch beard. He feels this is a good opportunity to grow a fine one.
His spare time has been spent mainly in reading, and in studying for Analytical Geometry, a correspondence course which he is taking through the University.
"Sure," he smiled, when asked whether he would do any more hunting. "First chance I get."
Closing Hours Set For 10:30 Tonight
The associated Women Students have announced that closing hours for women will be 10:30 tonight.
Beginning Wednesday closing hours will be at midnight until Tuesday, January 3, when classes resume. On that day they will be 10:30 p.m.
Scholarship Fund Gets $672.25
The nearly 7,000 persons attending the two performances of the Christmas vespers Sunday gave $672.25 in free will offerings to the School of Fine Arts vespers scholarship fund.
Harold Swartz, activities funds treasurer said the offering may be a sign of the times. As compared to a year ago, only the number of nickles received showed an appreciable increase. And only one bus token was found whereas in other years there has been an assortment of tokens, buttons, and Missouri pills.
The record high offering of $804.92 was received in 1948.
For the record, the offering came this way: 1 $5 bill, 131 $1 bills, 288 half-dollars, 840 quarters, 1,204 dimes, 1,019 nickels, and 1,090 pennies. The afternoon audience that filled Hoch auditorium contributed $466.29.
The offering will provide scholarships in art and music. The vespers, now in their 27th year, are financed entirely by the School of Fine Arts budget as a semi-curricular activity.
ASTE Hears G. Bradshaw
G. W. Bradshaw, professor of civil engineering, told the American Society of Tool Engineers that there is agitation to raise the standards of the engineering profession. He reminded the students that if standards are low it is the engineers who make them low.
He urged each engineer to take an individual responsibility for the reputation of his profession by constantly seeking to maintain a high personal standard and by taking an active part in civic affairs.
As secretary of the Kansas licensing board for professional engineers, Professor Bradshaw urged all engineers to get licenses as soon as possible after graduation. He invited students to discuss the matter with him.
The society discussed placing a sign in Marvin to advertise A.S.T.E. meetings and discussed giving plastic medallions as souvenirs at the spring exposition. Students will make the dies to be used in manufacturing the medallions.
THE WEATHER
John P. Gerdel, engineering sophomore from Kansas City, was introduced as a new member of A.S.T.E. The next meeting of the society will be Jan. 11.
KANSAS—Cold wave west and north central portions and much colder remainder of state by evening; cloudy this afternoon with freezing rain or snow northwest and extreme north portions, and rain rem in state, changing to freeze. a eastern east and south and to snow over northwest tonight and Wednesday. Much colder tonight and Wednesday over east and south, but becoming little warmest northwest Wednesday afternoon. Lows tonight 5-10 degree northwest, 25-30 southeast; highs Wednesday 25-30 east.
US Will Move Offices Inland In Case Of War
Washington, Dec. 20 — (U.P.)—Top secret plans provide for moving some of the government's most important departments and personnel inland in case of wartime attacks on Washington. How much would be moved—and where—would depend on the severity of the attacks.
The program is known officially as "security of the nation's capital." It is based on the assumption that the United States would beacked weakly by an attack if it became involved in another world war.
The national security resources board is constantly working over plans to deal with such a situation. No single plan is likely to be adopted and set aside for possible future use. Instead, the board intends to keep revising a number of alternative proposals.
Military planners point to both the long range of heavy bombers and to the recent announcement that the United States no longer has exclusive possession of the atomic bomb.
Board staff members are quick to add, too that the atomic bomb is not their only worry. "Block-busters" and incendiary bombs as used in World War II could cause heavy damage in American cities.
One of first steps to be taken in event of war would be to disperse several governmental departments which do not need to operate in Washington. This was to allow centrally during World War II because additional space was needed in Washington for war agencies.
After that, an air attack on Washington could result in two things. One would be that most important units might move underground in existing buildings, much the same as the British government stayed in London during the German blitz.
Little, if any, provision has been made for such a move at this time. No appropriation has been asked to emergency working quarters, in Washington.
If repeated attacks made Washington untenable, Congress, the executive agencies and the supreme would move to other locations.
It is reported that no single location has been chosen for a temporary capital. For one thing, the alternate city might be more seriously devastated than Washington before the move was necessary.

NOT A CREATURE WAS STIRRING
"C'mon, Tommy. There's an ol' pile of junk over by that fence," said George, a mop-headed boy of 10 years. George had a mean face and hard eyes.
"Okay," said Tommy.
"It looks like a car. A Ford, I betcha!"
"How d'ya know? There ain't much left," said Tommy, who was smaller than George, and much dirtier.
The two boys scrambled down a steep weed covered bank and ran to the remains of the car.
"Gee, there ain't much left," echoed George.
"Let's see if we kin crawl inside. We kin puttend it's an ambulance or a police car," said Tommy.
Tommy tried to squirm into the front seat through the smashed door.
"I'll push ya," said George.
"I can't git in," he said.
"No, don't! Cut it out. I'm stuck. Cut it out, will ya?" wailed Tommy.
"Nuts," said George.
Then George saw a scrap of paper on the ground, peeking from the December snow.
Look, Tommy. What's this? he asked.
The card read: University of Kansas,
student identification card. There was a picture
of a young man. Blood stained the signature.
"Gee," said George.
"Gee," echoed Tommy.

SPOTLIGHT SPORTS
By BOB NELSON
It seems that Phog Allen's Jay-hawkers are again confronted with the serious problem of losing the close games and need to develop a more balanced offense to be classified as title contenders in the Big Seven race.
So far this season, the forwards have scored very little, putting almost the full offensive burden on the guards and the pivotmen. When the back-line men fail to connect with the hawkeyers' offense comes to a near halt except for Clyde Lovellette's great offensive play off the post.
After trailing 23 to 13 at half-time in Saturday night's game with Duquesne, Kansas put on a real scoring barrage to lead the Dukes 47 to 45 with ten minutes remaining. Two more quick baskets ran the total to 51 to 45 with about seven minutes left in the contest.
At this point, the Kansas defense fell apart and Duquesne scored 17 straight points to give the Dukes a 62 to 51 lead and the game which ended with the home club on top by a 64 to 54 margin.
One thing that hurt the Kansans at the finish was the loss of Clyde Lovellette via the foul route for the third time in the young season. He had played a great game against one of the best big men in the East, the Duke's great pivotman, Charles "Big Coop" Cooper. Clyde held Cooper to 15 points and helped the Jayhawkers control the majority of rebounds.
Kansas in dropping a 54 to 56 decision to last year's tenth ranking team, the Cincinnati Bearcats, showed much strength in the rebounding department by controlling the percent of the rebounds. It seems the Kansas kid's know just what to do with the bail after they got hold of it.
The Jayhawkers lost the ball through interceptions, fumbles or wild passes no less than 30 times while the Bearcats lost it only 11 times.
Jim Holstein sophomore center who led Cincinnati's scoring with 19 points, connected on eight of 13 tries from the field while Lovellette had less luck in hitting only six out of 15 attempts from the field to go along with three free tosses for his 15-point total.
Tonight's battle between the Jayhawkers and Holy Cross in the Boston Garden will find guard Jerry Waugh, ace defensive wizard, pitted against Bob Cousy, considered by many experts as the finest college player in the country.
Many of the top coaches in the country have all but given up on trying to stop this amazing all-around player. Coach, Adolph Rupp of the Kentucky Wildcats, winners of the 1949 N.C.A.A. championship, probably sums up the play of Cousy best when he recently said, "We consider Cousy one of the trickiest individual ball players we have ever run across in basketball. He is a superior quarterback at starting plays. He has a quick change of direction which makes him outstandingly dangerous. He has every shot in the book and will go down in cage history as one of the greatest players of all time."
It is our guess that Waugh may not bottle-up Cousy, but that Bob will know he's been against a great defensive player that goes all-out as a terrific competitor and plays so hard that he nearly drops in his tracks before slowing up. Waugh has turned in some terrific defensive performances in the past in stopping such "hot shots" as Missouri's Dan Pippin, Kenneth Prory, Oklahoma's great guard of last year, A. L. Bennet, former high scoring Oklahoma Aggie forward, and Kansas State's former high scoring ace Harold Howey.

Kansas Cage Team Meets Mighty Holy Cross Tonight
Probable Starters

| :--- | :--- | ---: |
| 6-7 Jack Carby | F | (Co-Capt.) Bob Cousy 6-1 |
| 6-2 Bob Kenney | F | Walter Baird 6-1 |

Kansas, still looking for its first win of the present eastern trip, meets the Holy Cross Crusaders tonight in the BostonGarden. It will be the second and feature game of a college doubleheader. Boston college will play Lovola of Los Angeles in the opening game.
Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen's Kansas have dropped contests to Cincinnati and Duquesne, both undefeated teams, during the first half of their four-game eastern swing. The Jayhawkers are now below the 500 mark with two wins and three defeats.
Holy Cross, one of the top teams in the east, will go into this first meeting of the two schools a heavy favorite. The Crusaders have averaged 74-points a game and have held opponents to 43-points a game in running up five straight victories. Its latest victim was N.Y.U. in Madison Square Garden Saturday. Other wins for the fast-moving Crusaders were over American International, Trinity, Fordham, and Dartmouth.
The easterners have a veteran team with co-captains Bob Cousy and Frank Ofring ably assisted by Bob McMullan, Matt Forman, and Andy Laska. They're beginning their fourth year of competition at the Worcester school. All saw action with the Holy Cross N.C.A.A. championship team in 1947 as freshmen.
Lester "Buster" Sheary is in his second year as coach at Holy Cross. He succeeded "Doggie" Julian, when Julian left for the professional ranks, and guided the Crusaders to 19 victories and 8 defeats the past season. The Purple started slowly, playing such teams as Kentucky, Pulane, and St. Louis, but won 13 of its last 16 games.
Holy Cross, which is located in Worcester, Mass., is a comparative newcomer as a basketball power. The Catholic institution first gained cage prominence in 1947 when its team capped a great season with a 58 to 47 victory over Oklahoma in the championship finals of the N.C.A.A. tournament. The following year the Crusaders captured third in the N.C.A.A. playoff by downing another Big Seven member, Kansas State, 60 to 54.
In Bob Cousy, the Crusaders have one of the outstanding players in the nation. He fired in 90 points in the first four games this season from his forward position,
an average of 22.5 points per game.
Cousy, who stands one inch above six feet, has scored 1193 points in his three-year career, a Holy Cross record. He averaged 17.8 points a game last season which ranked him 12th in the nation in individual scoring.
Frank Ofting provides the other half of the Crusaders powerful one-two punch with long set shots from his guard positions. Bob McMullan, another four-year man, holds down the other guard spot. He was the second high scorer for Holy Cross during the 1948-49 season with 204 points.
Coach Sheary teams junior Walt Baird at forward with Cousy, and has Jim Dilling, 6 feet 4 inches tall, at center. Dilling, a promising sophomore, is the tallest player in the Crusader starting lineup. The tallest boy on the squad is 6 feet 5 inches.
Tacks Tax Teachers But Twins Are Safe
San Francisco—(U.P.) —The big question at the St. Francis day home was "which twin has the tacks." And the answer was neither one.
But she couldn't tell which twin it was. Both beamed and nodded when asked if they had swallowed a tack. Each shook her head just as amiably when asked: "or didn't you swallow a tack?"
Diana and Janet Nissen are blueeyed 21/2-year-old identical twins. A teacher, working on a project for the holidays, suddenly noticed a tack was missing about the same time one of the twins was gulping.
It took a fluoroscopic examination to disclose that no foreign objects showed on the twins' identical X-ray plates.
"It was awfully confusing for a while," the teacher sighed. "They're as much alike as—well, as two tacks."

Louis KO's Another In Exhibition Match
Oakland, Calif., Dec. 20—(U.P.) Joe Louis may be serious about his current tour being an "exhibition", but his easy fifth-round kowy victory over young Al Hoosman of San Francisco proved again last night that the Brown Bomber is one of the best.
The exact status of the fight never was cleared because Louis ended the squabble by scoring his knockout.
Louis and his managers billed the bout as a scheduled 10-round exhibition. But the California state athletic commission said a state law prohibited any fight in which no decision was rendered.
Hoosman exchanged a few solid smashes in the third round but got on his bicycle again after he caught a bite of body and head blows along the ropes.
The retired champion chased Hoosman around the ring through the first two rounds. Hoosman, a former NASCar winner, returned a punch during this time.
Obviously scared, Hoosman backpedaled through the fourth, and fifth when Louis caught up with him The Bomber set him up for a knockout punch.
Apparently undecided about applying the clincher, Louis hesitated then let go with a right to the jaw that sent Hoosman sprawling on the canvas face first.
A crowd of 9,000 fans jammed the Oakland auditorium, paying $19,-865.48 for the privilege of watching Louis in action. A throng of 500 to 1,000 fans was turned away at the door.
Louis' next fight is Friday night in Salt Lake City, where he is engaged in two four-round bouts.
Ohio Mayor Rejects $500
As City Raises His Salary
Cincinnati—(U.P.)-Ed. Gingerich, mayor of suburban Chevoit, Ohio, has grudgingly accepted a $500 a year pay raise, but said he hated doing it.
"The city council made me take it." Mr. Gingerich complained. The city council originally voted a $1,000 a year raise, but the mayor threatened to veto it. The council insisted he take at least a $500 a year raise.
Mr. Gingerich voluntarily took a $1.50 pay cut the past January so the village could pay a pension to an ex-mayor.

Cows Become Inbriated After Fishing Liquor Still
Louisville, Ga. — (U.P.) — W. B.
Years, veterinarian, was called in
during the weekend to treat two
gay old cows who had gone off on
a spree.
"Come quick," a farmer told Dr. Yearns. "My two cows are mighty sick."
The veterinarian made his examination and then diagnosed their ailment.
"Drunk as lords," he said, adding that they will be all right after getting over hangovers.
He speculated the boisterous bovines found a liquor still while grazing, decided to have a short one for old time's sake, and then just didn't know when to stop.

The Christmas Candle
Every Christmas season countless Christmas trees, Santa, holly wreaths and other decorations remind us of the Christmas season and spirit. But of all the signs of Christmas that abound each December, perhaps none express the real meaning of the yuletide more completely than the Christmas candle.
Martin Luther originated the candle as a Christmas decoration. The candle has shed its light on every Christmas since that time, all over the world. Its steady flame has been the sign of peace, hope, and good-will that makes the Christmas spirit. But the message that Luther symbolized has since been forgotten.
On Dec. 25, 1939, candles were shining in the same Germany where they originated, but Hitler had flung the world into another war. In December of 1945, the war was over and hope ran high that the peace and good-will symbolized by the Christmas candle would finally be heeded. But now, in December of 1949, we find the East split against the West, in the midst of a heated "cold" war. The ideals illuminated by the Christmas candle don't seem to be coming much closer to a universal realization than in the past.
But still the Christmas candle is burning across the world. Its light beacons a message of peace and good will through the darkness of world affairs, and as the candle continues to burn, we can only wonder how many yuletide seasons must pass before we realize the peace and security expressed by the Christmas candle.
—Bill Graves
Graduate Student Wins First Prize In Aeronautical Literary Contest
Kansas is in for some world-wide publicity.
Marcella Stewart, graduate student in journalism, has been awarded first prize in the 1949 annual Aeronautical Literary contest for her article on "Kansas Educates for the Air Age."
The contest is sponsored by the Women's International Association of Aeronautics, Inc., and is open to all nations.
Because of her classes at the University Miss Stewart was unable to attend the presentation ceremonies held Dec. 3, in Santa Monica, Calif. The first prize, the Olive Ann Beech award, is an onyx pen set with a miniature gold airplane mounted on the base.
Miss Stewart is from Winfield. She was graduated from the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information in 1947. During her senior year she was managing editor of the University Daily Kansan. Following her graduation Miss Stewart worked as an assistant editor of Glamour magazine in New York. She later edited the magazine of the Wichita zone Chevrolet dealers. She then joined the Beech Aircraft corporation public relations department, where she held editorships on employee and sales publications.
Membership in the Women's International Association of Aeronautics, covers England, Peru, Venezuela, East Africa, Panama, Australia, Hungary, Fiji, France and New Zealand.
Mrs. Ulysses Grant McQueen, founder and honorary president, has done much in the past two decades to establish the place of women in aviation. One of the first projects undertaken by Mrs. McQueen and her association of women flyers was to promote the "Powder Puff Derby," named by Will Rogers, as a part of the Cleveland national air races.
The president of the association is Mrs. Olive Ann Beech of Beech Aircraft corporation, Wichita. She succeeded film actress Mary Pickford.

'Inclusive Architecture' Will Make Homes More Livable, Beal Says
American people, who spend 80 per cent of their time indoors will benefit from "inclusive architecture" if their homes and other buildings are designed by University of Kansas architectural grants.
That is the opinion of Prof. George M. Beal, chairman of the architecture department.
Homes and business buildings designed by K.U. graduates will incorporate the three fine arts—painting, sculpture, and architecture—into a finished whole that is esthetically satisfying and livable.
"Architecture has great emotional, cultural, and psychological importance," said Professor Beal. "We hope to teach our architects the basic idea of inclusive architecture—the combination building is developed around the satisfaction of human needs, physical, intellectual, and emotional."
"To give our students a closer relationship with all aspects of inclusive architecture, we have on our staff men who are specialists in the various fields of architecture," Professor Beal said. "Prof. Gerald Davis is our painter; Prof. Jordan Johnson is our landscape artist; and Prof. Alton C. Thomas, and Prof. Thomas Schocken, is our city planner."
The Industrial revolution of the early 19th century and the development of a great many new building
methods and materials have created many new problems which need to be given a comprehensive human interpretation. The idea of inclusive architecture is especially needed during the present stage of contemporary architectural development.
Modern buildings utilize large quantities of glass, giving them an unconfined, pleasing effect. The shape of modern buildings usually express the form of activity that goes on within them.
"In any period of high architectural achievement there is a close association of the major arts." Professor Beal said. "The Gothic, the Egyptian, and the Classic Greek periods are good examples of this integration of the arts."
"We think that architecture does just about everything for humanity," Professor Beal said. "If it weren't for architecture we'd all be out in the cold," he quipped.
Playwright Eugene O'Neill has received the Pulitzer prize three times.

Souvenirs Show Splendor Of White House Society
Washington—(U.P.)A woman whose mother was a bridesmaid in a White House wedding in 1874 has closed a gap in White House film on social functions.
Because of a fire in the state department some years ago, there are almost no records of past White House social functions. Mrs. Arthur Doig, former head of the Institute of Washington, permitted the White House staff to copy some of her mother's souvenirs of several formal White House dinners.
Mrs. Edith Helm, White House social secretary, said one was significant because it shows the earliest recorded use of the President's seal on a formal dinner invitation.
Mrs. Doig's mother was Anna Barnes, daughter of the Army's surgeon general in the Grant administration. She was one of eight bridgesmaids attending Nellie Grant at her marriage in 1874 to Algernon Sartorius, an Englishman.
In connection with the wedding festivities Miss Barnes was invited to dinner at the White House. She sailed her invitations as well as her place cards,
Mrs. Helm observed that the place cards of 1874 were far more elaborate than those used in the White House now. Miss Barnes' card was four-by-five inches with an engraving of the White House, over the guest's name. Now, Mrs. Helm said, he paid the guest as President's.
Mrs. Doig's souvenirs revealed that the White House dining hour has been pushed up considerably. The usual formal dinner there is billed for eight o'clock. Miss Barres received one from the Grants for and one from President and Mrs. Rutherford B. Hayes for six o'clock.
President and Mrs. Grant's invitation said they would be "pleased to have Miss Barnes dine socially with them while President and Mary Barnes merely requested "the pleasure of Miss Barnes' company at dinner."
A newspaper account of the Grant wedding, also saved by Mrs. Doig's mother, indicates that it may have been the most splendid of the few marriage ceremonies performed in White Rock, the book place in the East Room, decorated with flowers, including two wreaths which formed the couple's initials
Outside the White House, the account said, the main gates were "thronged with people of all classes anxious to get a glimpse of the guests as they passed through the gates in dasy equipages."
The couple received presents valued at $7,500. The bride wore a "white satin dress of the richest Material obtainable in the New York market" trimmed with lace made in Brussels at a cost of $5,000. President Grant gave his daughter two complete sets of lace, one in black and one in white.
Nelson Attends Chicago Meeting
A conference on the preparation of college teachers was attended recently. Nelson, dean of graduate school. The conference was held in Chicago.
About 170 representatives from universities, liberal arts colleges and professional schools participated.
"Teaching is an art and it can't all be learned in school," he said. "It's the duty of the universities to select and train those who are fitted to do the work."

C. V. Waddington, K.U. electrical engineering graduate of 1912 and head of the engineering department of the Kansas Gas and Electric company at Wichita, spoke to 200 electrical engineering students recently on the "Possibilities of a Career in Public Utilities."
Mr. Waddington discussed the important factors for success in engineering jobs. He described the divisions of work students would meet in industry. He divided engineering work into general system engineering, general design, operating systems, and sales engineering.
Students See Real Thing
Kalamazoo, Mich., (U,P) - The Kalamazoo Humane society has opened a "pet lending library" to help pupils in the public schools learn more about animal life. When school teachers think their pupils should have a look at a real animal they check with the society. If it has such an animal, it is delivered to the school for a day.
Ex-GI Repays French Friend
Alfred, N.Y.—(U.P.)—A French girl is being repaid at Alfred university for the friendship her family extended to an American glider trooper in 1945.
Simone Vauthier, 24, of Joigny, France, is studying at Alfred under the sponsorship of Rotary clubs from Wellsville, Hornell and Canisteo. The university has provided a full scholarship for Simone, an honor graduate of the Sorbonne in Paris.
Simone's American studies had their beginnings in Joigny, 90 miles from Paris, one late summer day after the war.
George D. Smith, former member
of the Division, tells
aSPUT! it this way:
"Joigny is a pretty little village on the Yonne River. . . Monsieur Vautier recently had returned from nearly a year's imprisonment by the Nazis for his underground work and Mme. Vautier was attempting to remove the last trace of her Nazi 'boarders' from their home.
"We GI's were wanting to go home, but the Vauthiers entertained us like sons despite their own post-obiections. It eased my stay greatly."

Want To Give A Big Christmas Present? An Oil Refinery Or Auto Plant Is Nice
Washington—(U.P.)—If you have a yen to give something big for Christmas, the War Assets administration can help you out.
For instance, it has a power line in New York, built during World War II for $3,670,000 to carry power to an aluminum plant at Massena, N. Y. The line is no longer needed. The plant has cut back to pre-war production levels and doesn't want the added power.
The agency must fold up by Saturday, Dec. 31. Its work will be taken over then by the general service administration. But before then the W.A.A. wants to clean up its business and some of it, is pretty big.
The only customer remotely interested, says the W. A. A., is the state of New York itself. And the state isn't really interested unless law enforcement or the St Lawrence seaway and power development will be carried out.
That's only one of the "white elephant" items still left on the list of surplus property. There's a coke plant in Tacoma, Wash., too far from a source of supply to make peatecetine operations economically viable. The Tacoma Dodge plant in Chicago that has converted to the W. A. A since Preston Tucker's postwar automobile difficulties became acute.
There is an oil refinery at Corpus Christi, Texas, a steel foundry in Illinois and several shipyards, including one at Chester, Pa., owned by the government but on land owned by a private individual.
Paul L. Mather, who now runs W. A. A., said there are 50 plants still on the list of surplus property he wants to get rid of by, or shortly after, Christmas, valued at $545 million dollars.

Britain, Canada US Announce Military Plans
London, Dec. 20—(U.P.)-The United States, Great Britain, and Canada have announced their agreement on plans for the future standardization of military equipment and training methods.
The new arrangements were announced simultaneously in the three capitals, Washington, London, and Ottawa. Informed sources in London said the agreement essentially is a waiver for the equipment because it is no intention to scrap equipment in use or to cease immediate production of any particular equipment.
The idea, they said, is to eliminate incidental difficulties that might impede co-operation of ground, sea, and air forces in case of war. Under the agreement military committees of the three countries will carry on constant consultations to increase the uniformity among them.
Their studies, the announcement said, will be "aimed at the gradual development of common designs and standards in arms, equipment and training methods."
"These arrangements," it said, "will insure that in time of necessity there will be no material or technical obstacles to full co-operation among the armed forces concerned, and the greatest possible economy in the use of combined resources and efforts will be obtained."
The announcement said the three power agreement was a step "toward fulfillment of the wider arrangements under the North Atlantic production and supply chain" and the provision of "standardization of parts and end products of military equipment" in the North Atlantic area."
Informed sources said no high level committee would be appointed, and there would be no direct comms with the respective services concerned.
But, they said, when a development is introduced preliminary consultations will be called to remove possible future sources of difficult
Where possible, the informants reported, blueprints will be standardized to make production of new equipment interchangeable. The arrangements have been under discussion for two years. They were reported to be envisaged as the basis for extension of military collaboration to all the Atlantic pact countries.
Approximately 25 members of Alpha Phi Omega and their guests will meet in the lounge of the Union at 7:30 p.m. today to go caroling, Harold Shigley, president of the fraternity, said today.
Alpha Phi Omega Will Carol At 7 p.m.
"Caroling has been an annual affair of Alpha Phi Omega for the past six year," Shigley said. "This year we will sing at Watkins Memorial Church in Convence Memorial hospital, and the Convaleuse hospital in Lawrence."
Alpha Phi Omega is a national service fraternity composed of former Boy Scouts.
Bookstore To Pay Rebates After Jan. 1
The Union bookstore will declare a rebate after Jan.1, 1950, on all purchases by students for the past six months.
L. E. Woolley, manager of the bookstore, said the bookstore committee would meet soon after the first of the year to determine the total amount of the rebate and the amount from them rebates on all the receipts they have received with purchases at the book store.
This will be the sixth rebate, and according to Mr. Wooley, it will be the largest one since the system was started after the period Jan. 1 to June 30, 1947.
Illness Sidelines Three KU Starters
Three Jayhawker starters have been kayoed by illness, and probably will not play in tonight's game with Holy Cross, it has been revealed by a telegram received today by sports publicity director Don Pierce from Coach F. C. Allen.
Clyde Lovellette, 6 foot 9 inch center, and Jack Carby, 6 foot 7 inch forward, are in bed with flu. Bill Houghtland, 6 foot 4 inch forward, is sick but not in bed according to Dr. Allen's telegram.
"Prospects are gloomy but the spirit of the boys is undaunted even in sickness and in defeat," said Allen.
This will be a blow to Kansas' chances against a favored Holy Cross five as these boys were expected to carry most of the load for the Jayhawkers.
Truck Driving Leads To PhD
Truck drivers and doctors are widely separated in their professions. However, Jack Chernick, assistant professor of economics, who drove a truck for two years in Winnipeg, Canada, made the transition recently. He received his doctor's degree in economics from the University of Minnesota.
Mr. Chernick majored in economics with labor as his major field. He did his work for his doctor's degree at the University of Minnesota "off and on" from 1940 to 1946.
"I ran out of money just before I finished my first year at the University of Manitoba." Dr. Chernick said. During the depression years from 1933 to 1935, he saved enough money to return to school by driving an electrical supply truck in Winnipeg.
The University of Minnesota has published two books by Mr. Chernick on guaranteed wages. His doctor's thesis deals with guaranteed wages and employment.
Dr. Chernick has been at the University of Kansas since 1947.
Church Group Serenades Older Members Of Parish

Bourbon Is Drink Of Kansas, Says Liquor Director
Topcka—(U.P.)—Kansans are bourbon, not Scotch, drinkers, the newly-wet state's liquor dealers decided soon after legal sales began the past summer. And they haven't changed their minds.
Arthur A. Herrick, Kansas liquor control director, released a report showing that early shipments of bourbon — blends, straight whiskes, and bonds — outnumbered Scotch orders from distilleries more than 40 to 1. He added that incomplete later checks disclosed little change in the ratio.
During August, the first full month of authorized sales, shipments into Kansas totaled 85,273 cases of whiskey, 41,196 of wine, 16,849 of gin, 1,142 of rum, and 8,566 of specialties.
In the whiskey line, the bourbons totaled 79,505 cases, compared with only 1.924 of Scotch.
These figures were released at the same time that other reports of the first five months of liquor sales were being wound up in the State.
Mr. Herrick has denied one out of every nine licenses applied for. There have been 101 applicants denied approval out of 916 received. The 756 applicants approved are now doing business. Thirty others withdrew and action is still pending on the remaining 29.
However, Mr. Herrick announced in clarifying holiday regulations, that Kansas retailers may sell intoxicants both on the Monday following Christmas and the Monday after New Year's.
Administering a law noted for its strictness. Mr. Herrick reminded package store owners that neither they, their wives, nor their employees or their wives may receive Christmas gifts from liquor wholesalers. Furthermore, it is illegal for wholesale distributors, their agents or employees or their respective spouses to accept gifts from distillers or anyone connected with distilleries.
While the state observes both days as holidays, Mr. Herrick ruled that "the closing of retail liquor stores on Monday, Dec. 26, and Monday, Jan. 2, is optional with the retailer."
The law specified Sunday closings, so that no liquor may be sold on either Christmas or New Year's day.
Senior women interested in taking the air hostess training course offered by Trans World airlines should consult with Miss Maude Elliott, assistant professor of Romance languages, immediately.
Actually there are about eight different steps that are basic to square dancing and these are usually the steps employed by the square dance callers. The most basic step is the swinging of the partner which usually is at the beginning of every square dance.
A postgraduate medical study will be sponsored by the University in cooperation with the Kansas Medical society and the state board of health at University Medical center in Kansas City, Kan., Thursday, Jan. 12 to Thursday March 16.
Interns To Have Graduate Study
Women who will be graduated in June, regardless of major, may apply. Those accepted for the training will receive instruction Saturday mornings during the spring semester. Employment as an air hostess by T.W.A. is probable, although ation.
As the dance progresses, words like these echo through the room above the recording, "All jump up and never come down, honey in your arms, go round and round." From this point on, anything may happen in the 15 to 20 minute dance which follows.
The second most popular step is called, "docey do." In this step partners dance around each other back to back.
Foster believes that square dancing is becoming more popular on the campus. He has been engaged with this club work for three years and believes that more students are interested today than ever before.
"Allemande Left" is a step in which the men go to the right and the women to the left in the form of a huge circle.
TWA Offers Hostess Course
Some of the top tunes on the square dance hit parade are "Bake Them - Hoe Cakes Brown" and "Cripple Creek." Vaughn Monroe may be the top band in America, but the king of square dance music is Cliffie Stone and his eight-piece band.
The University is the only school not guaranteed, soon after gradu in the nation offering such an arrangement for hostess training.
The program is designed for interns and general practitioners. The objective is to give a complete fundamental review and to present recent advancements in diagnosis and treatment.
The club is well-supplied with callers who have been calling dances for at least two years. These are Chesley Looney, engineering senior; William Love, business senior; Robert Heins, College sophomore, and Richard Callabresi, engineering freshman.
General requirements include: be 21 to 28 years old, inclusive, at the time of employment; weigh 100 to 135 pounds; stand 5 feet 2 inches to 5 feet 7 inches in height in stocking feet, and be unmarried.
Square Dancers Step Out To Calls Of 'Swing It'
One half hour is usually devoted to instruction while another hour is spent on many students, both men and women, a stag to the weekly square dances.
Applications should be made promptly because physical examinations and interviews are required before admittance to the course. Please note the following planning of academic schedules for spring semester for those accepted
"Mule Train" may be tops on the Hit Parade, but as far as the members of the Square Dance club are concerned, the Hit Parade is wrong.
"Sally Good in" and "The Gal I Left Behind Me" are two of the top tunes that provide amusement for approximately 24 students at 7:30 o.m. each Wednesday when the Square Dance club meets in the recreation room of the Union.
The past year, when the course was first offered, three K.U. women satisfactorily completed the work and were employed by T.W.A.
Thomas Foster, president of the group, said that there is room for more interested students to join in the fun. Foster said that this is one form of dancing that relaxes the most reluctant wallflower.
Sophomores Plan Dance
The annual Sophomore class dance will be held from 9 p.m. to midnight Saturday, Jan. 7, in the Union ballroom. Harlan Livingood and his orchestra will play.
Tickets, which are $1.25 a couple, may be purchased before or at the dance. David Sailer, College, is in charge of ticket sales.
Other committee chairmen are:
Win Koerper, College, entertainment;
Graydon Luthey, College, decorations; Dick Hunter, College, publicity; and Martha Carpenter, publicity and Martha Chapparons will be Dr. and Mrs. L. O'Doydruff.
Mr. and Mrs. Arvid Jacobson, and Mr. and Mrs. Don V. Plantz
Officers of the sophomore class are Sally Garland, College, president; Graydon Luthey, vice-president; Jean Bush, secretary; and David Sailer, treasurer.

US Air Force May Get Base In Okinawa
Okinawa, — (U.P) — The U. S. air force apparently has won out over the U. S. navy in the behind- the scenes argument over what will be America's big base in the Far East.
Everything indicates that Okinawa, the choice of the airmen has been picked.
The navy wanted Guam. For their own purposes, the air force generals liked Okinawa.
Building Progresses
Gen. Douglas MacArthur, supreme commander for the Allied powers in Japan, leaned to the side of the air force. In addition to run-out plans for pan to allies, Gen. MacArthur also is U. S. Far East commander.
There still are no indications that the navy will move its operations from Guam to Okinawa, but the air force seems to be concentrating now on this island south of Japan, which is about 67 miles long and averages three to 10 miles in width.
Building Progresses
The U. S. 20th Air Force has been moved from Guam to Okinawa and the commanding general of this hard-hitting outfit says the building program here on Okinawa is more extensive than that on Guam.
This is a very recent development. Only in recent weeks has the decision been made in Washington to build permanent structures in place of the temporary, substandard things that have been used since the end of the war.
There are two air force bases on Okinawa. One is Kadena and the other is Naha. Both are being modernized and improved.
Maj. Gen. Alvin C. Kincaid, 20th Air Force commanding general, said $24,000,000 has been authorized in the past few weeks for permanent buildings at Kadena.
It is expected that more money for Naha will be coming soon.
Not All He Wants
The $24,000,000 is not all that the general wants and is not all that he says he needs. "But", he declared, "it will make us operational."
Top American experts are arriving from Washington and Tokyo to push the project.
When the Americans planned on using Okinawa as the base for their final assault on Japan, the blueprints called for 26 air fields on Okipawa.
Some of America's newest and fastest jet planes are stationed here, as well as many B-29's.
From Okinawa they can fan out over a considerable area, if they are ordered to do so. Planes from here can cast their shadows in the Philippines, Japan, Formosa, and China.
Red Cross Needs KU Entertainers
The Lawrence Red Cross needs student vocalists, dancers, instrumentalists, and other entertainers for Sunday and weekday recreational programs at Winter General hospital, Topeka.
"The need for entertainers is great," said R. N. Wolfson, Douglas county chairman of entertainment and recreation at Winter General. "Veterans who have been in hospitals will realize the importance of ward entertainment."
A "variety show" is usually presented on Sunday at 2 and 3:15 p.m.
It lasts 40 minutes. During the week individual entertainers put on 20-
minute programs in the wards.
Mrs. Wolffson also wants a University student to work with her in planning student programs. She requested that anyone call her at 2974 who can help in this way or by entertaining. "***"
"We can use any kind of entertainment that isn't depressing," she said. "We like magicians, cartoonists, barbershop quartets, and acrobats. Various fraternities and sororites have gone as a group, sent their quartets or trios."

US Grand Jury Hears Charges Against Maragon
Washington. Dec. 21—(U.P.)The government Tuesday laid before a federal grand jury evidence to back up a charge that John F. Maragon perjured himself before the senate committee investigating "5 per centers."
Although the government completed its presentation Tuesday, assistant U.S. Attorney Charles Murphy said the grand jury would not act on it before Tuesday, Jan. 3.
The dapper, fast-talking business agent—a one-time close friend of Mai. Gen. Harry H. Vaughan, the White House military aide—is accused of lying under cath to the senate committee the past summer when it was investigating Washington "influence salesmen."
At a secret committee session Maragon gave testimony, later made public, that he never represented anyone doing business with the government and that he had only two bank accounts, both here.
The witnesses Tuesday included Milton Poland, Milwaukee insurance man, and his nephew, Harold Ross, head of the Allied Molasses company, Perth Amboy, N.J. They had told the committee they gave Maragon $1,320 in fees and expense money to try to get the firm out of a sugar quota jam with the agriculture department.
George Chadwick, an attorney for George Dawson who said he hired Maragon after the war to help his firm, Trans-America Trading incorporated, get surplus war material, also testified Tuesday. Dawson is suing Maragon for $8,000 he said he paid to Maragon. The suit contends Maragon never got any material for the firm.
Carmine Bellino, of the committee staff, testified at the investigation that Maragon opened an account in the National Bank of Commerce, San Antonio, Texas, in 1943. In 1944 and 1945, Bellino testified, deposits were $11,723 and $26,303, respectively.
And, Bellino said, Maragon's deposits in all accounts for the years 1943 through 1948 totalled $119,608. Maragon, the senators were told, said his income for the years 1945 to 1948 averaged only $6,000 a year.
Government Bars Trips In Hungary
Washington, Dec. 21—(U.P.) The United States Tuesday barred travel by private American citizens in Hungary "until further notice" because of Hungary's "arbitrary and inhumane" action in arresting Robert Vogeler of New York.
The United States handed a long and blistering note to the Hungarian foreign office in Eudapest and gave a copy simultaneously to Hungarian minister Imre Horvath in Washington.
The note sharply denounced Vogeler's arrest on Nov. 18.
Chancellor Greets Students By Cable
Chancellor Deane W. Malott, who is now attending the Ameri-
cation conference in New Delhi, India, has sent holiday greetings to the students and faculty by cable. The cleagram is as follows:
"From this ancient seat of other cultures, Mrs. Malott and I extend to the students, faculty, and staff our best wishes for a merry Christmas and a happy new year."

The Holy Land Desires Peace
Jerusalem. Dec. 21. — (U.P.) — An American marine general who administers the truce in the Holy Land has told Arabs and Jews that his "Christmas wish" is for peace and goodwill between them.
Brig. Gen. William E. Riley, chief of staff of the United Nation mission in Palestine, said in a Christmas message released by his Jerusalem headquarters that understanding between the two peoples is growing and all disputes "can be settled peacefully if both sides want peace."
Serving on Riley's truce supervision staff today are 50 American army, navy, and marine personnel who represent a cross-section of the military in California and from Texas to Maine. All of them volunteered for the job.
Many of them planned today to attend Christmas eve ceremonies at the church of the Nativity at Bethlehem.

Union President Asks Truman To Fire Official
Washington, Dec. 21.-(U.P.)-Albert J. Fitzgerald, president of the left-wing United Electrical Workers union, asked President Truman Tuesday to fire Robert N. Denham as general counsel of the National Labor Relations board and to investigate the board.
The demand came after his union had called off a federal court fight to prevent the government from holding bargaining elections in the electrical industry.
Fitzgerald charged that Denham and the board plan "to destroy existing collective bargaining contracts."
The U.E. and the new, right-wing C. I. O. International Union of Electrical Workers are fighting for the right to represent workers in the plants where U.E. now holds contracts.
The U. E. withdrew its petition after Denham disclosed this morning that he changed certain instructions given his regional offices in connection with hearings on the elections. Three hearings are scheduled to be the General Motors plant in Dayton, Ohio, the Sperry Gyroscope company in New York and the Rudolph Wuritzer company in Buffalo.
Denham originally told N. L. R. B. hearing officers that present U. E. contracts would not be a bar to elections. He also said that it would be unnecessary for the hearing officers to split between the members of the rival unions. He changed those instructions this morning.
Christmas Spirit Speeds Departure Of Students
Mount Oread is getting that deserted look as hundreds of University students leave by bus, train, auto, and plane to spend the Christmas holidays with their loved ones.
The cafeteria in the Union will be open for those remaining at the University through the holidays. Christmas dinner will include turkey.
Bad weather in the form of drizzly rain only seems to speed the departure of most of the students. Those from warmer areas are in campus, but most home sports shirts and slacks and football bowls games on New Year's day.
Caroling parties have been organized, and the voices of the students can be heard to blend in the old, familiar Christmas songs. Winking multi-colored lights lure carolers on from house to house until all the loved melodies of old are sung.
Many students from distant states have already left for home. Many more students who live near by will leave today. But a lot of the students will spend Christmas at the University, these houses whose homes are too far away, and those who have no homes or families.
Instructors and professors shared the yuletide spirit of giving. Many of them broke the classroom routine with readings from Dickens. A few staunch educators also gave -shot-guns and exams-so the students
A round of Christmas parties have been held for departing students at the many houses on the Hill. Departments and schools of the University also held open house Christmas parties for students and guests.
Everyone is glad. They're going home. Merry Christmas, Joe! Merry Christmas, Janet! See you next year!

College Adds Five Courses To Curriculum
A faculty meeting of the College added five new courses and an apparel merchandising option in home economics to the College curriculum, Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, announced today.
The new courses will be available to students of junior and senior standing. Two courses were added in the department of geography: 1) map planning and construction, and 2) map intelligence. One course was added to the department of political science: field work. Two courses were added to the department of bacteriology: 1) biology of bacteria, and 2) industrial microbiology.
An apparel merchandising option in home economics was planned by the department of home economics to suit the needs of students desiring a liberal education and who have a special interest in this area of merchandising.
Included are required courses in art, economics, aesthetics, and home economics, together with recommended courses in sociology, psychology, and economic geography. These have been selected to give the student a better understanding of basic art principles, economics, business practices, and problems of personnel management.
The courses are designed to provide creative experiences in the field of applied art, to develop ability to evaluate and test certain basic materials and constructions. The required and recommended courses are expected to involve the use of equipment in the application of problems in this area of merchandising and help develop his ability to solve them.
During the summer of the student's junior year, work experience in a retail store is recommended as part of the course of study. In the freshman-sophomore years, 19 hours are required. Students in grades 29-32 hours are required. Recommended courses are in addition to the required courses.
The committee on honest work made recommendations on: 1) the development of proper attitude on the part of the student toward his class work, 2) the preparation of examinations, and 3) the method of conducting examinations. The recommendations have been printed and will be distributed among faculty personnel.
Douglas County Club To Sponsor Dance

Personality Development Teaching Aim Of Schwegler
A belief that education is not the mere mastery of books, but rather the mastery of the art of wholesome living, is why Raymond Alfred Schwegler, dean emeritus of the School of Education, is still a busy man.
Today the 75-year-old dean who served the University for 38 years, busies himself by conducting what he terms, "personality clinics" throughout Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma. Dean Schwegler conducts these clinics because he feels that education must consider more and more the development of the personality of the individual.
His services to the University began in 1907 and did not end until 1945. During those years he served as associate professor of education, professor, acting dean of the school. He lost no time in beginning his service when he retired from active service in 1945.
In the office of the dean of the School of Education, he pointed to the desk behind which he had sat for so many years and said: "I am a psychologist and an educator and during my years behind that desk, I came more and more to realize that the problems of students were very often not scholastic problems, but rather problems of adjustment."
He believes that a person at 40 or 45 years of age can be successful in helping young persons because they can remove themselves emotionally yet render sympathetic and understanding help while being objective.
Dean Schwegler visits about 40 communities a year in the middle west. At some schools he stays two or three days and at others a week or more.

Entered as second class matter Sept. 17,

The sessions get underway with a talk to the entire student body of a junior high school, high school, junior college, or senior college group. Then individual classes are addressed. After the contacts have been made, and trust has been established, personal interviews begin.
Problems vary with the age group, Dean Schvegier points out. Those on the junior high school and high school level are concerned with adjustment to their home life and environment. Those on the junior college level have the problems of vocational guidance, philosophical and environmental adjustments. The senior college level presents vocational and ethical guidance problems.
Problems of the students also vary with the community. Students from rural areas have the problem of adjusting themselves to the city.
His problem is also that of a salesman, Dean Schwegler is attempting to sell school officials on the importance of improving the educational system by taking into consideration the personality of the students. He reports that interest on the part of school officials is increasing.
Public Has Last Laugh In Movie Film Tieup
Carmel, Calif.—(U.P.)—A Hollywood movie company tied up traffic for hours along part of a main street in Carmel taking a sequence involving the star, Robert Young. Irate residents who had been blocked off the sidewalks and street had the last laugh, however, when they found the entire strip of film taken had to be thrown out because of poor lighting.
But They Took The $17
St. Paul, Minn.—(U.P.)Even bandits can get the Christmas spirit, cab driver Robert Johnson of St. Paul reported today.
As Johnson pulled up to a stop at the destination given him by two passengers, one of the men shoved a gun into the back of his neck and demanded his receipts. They got about $17.
But when they asked for his bill-fold, Johnson said the $11 in it was Christmas money for his two children. They let him keep it.
The Ghost's Not Walking
Boston—(U,P) — Police thought somebody was too optimistic when they received a call to rush an inhaler to Cedar Grove cemetery. It developed that a visitor had fainted in the graveyard.
How long will he go on with this program?
"I feel that as long as a man has his health and a contribution to make to society, he has a moral obligation to go on," Dean Schwegler said.
To our many friends a Christmas abundant with all good things, and a heart brimming with the satisfying glow of Holiday Season.

left to right: Vinson B. Derington, College sophomore and Elmer R. Rusco, College senior. The picture at the right shows the windowless, doorless garage
building before work was begun on it the past summer. The members of the newest Co-op did all the remodeling work themselves.
Students Build Co-op From Old Garage
Raising their voices above the clatter of hammers and saws and stove pipe sections being fitted into place, Albert Roland, Stanley Kelly, and Richard Pfister, all graduate students, explained to a visiting Kansan reporter the birth and growth of the Hill co-op.
This past spring an idea occurred to Hilden Gibson, then chairman of the University Housing board, to remodel the old garage beside Harmon co-op into living quarters for University men.
He mentioned his idea to several members of the Inter-Co-op council and they decided to undertake the project. They called for volunteers and had so many answer that a method of selection had to be established. It was decided that relative grade averages, work habits, and general interest would be the determining factors.
Twelve men were chosen from the various co-operative houses and they became the active membership of the infant co-op. They understood that if they were to have a house they would have to practically build it themselves. Wereans were born in spring, sprinting and pseudo-carpenters returned to Lawrence in August to start actual work on the place.
From what the house builders said, there just wasn't anything there but a brick frame with a roof on it—and not a very good roof at that. The ground floor was open on three sides and new brick had to be mortared in to fill up the holes. The second floor, which had once been servants' quarters, was in good shape but consisted of only two rooms. The men decided to partition one of these off into a combination rumpus and dining room. The other room has become the dormitory.
Working through August, the men were able to move into the house a week after school started. Before that they had to sleep and eat in other co-ops. The men said it was rather bare the first couple of weeks after they moved in, with no bathroom or storage facilities; but they soon became used to it.
"Our toughest job was to get the doors and windows faced and planned. It isn't a professional job, but it serves the purpose," said Kelley, president of the new co-op.
Albert Roland, editor of the Upstream magazine, commented, "Our hardest job was trying to go to school, teach, and work on the building with just 24 hours in the day."
Six of the now 11 members of the co-op are instructors in various schools and departments at the University. The average age of the members is 22. All are former members of other longer-established cooperative houses.
Several of heated arguments occurred when the colors to be used on interior surfaces were being chosen. Somebody quipped in theouch argument "When in doubt, paint it maroon." So maroon it was.
The housewife's complaint that cooking one's own meals takes all the joy out of eating dosen't apply to the members of the Hill co-or They cook their own meals and like them.
"You get used to it; most me have a suppressed desire to cook, and we get to realize ours," said Rolan as he cut into a large hamburger steak at lunch. The Kansan reporter had already finished his.
More than 200 persons attended the open house of the new co-op on Dec.16.

Bibles From Seven Countries In Miss Hoopes' Collection
国家税务总局监制
Through her interest in the theater Miss Hoopes has developed a collection of souvenir books purchased at performances.
"I haven't missed an outstanding play given in Kansas City or the immediate vicinity for a half century," she said.
Miss Hoopes, a woman of many interests, has developed a collection of exquisitely designed Chinese snuff-bottles. This unique collection includes bottles of jade, rose quartz, carved glass, and agate. One of the bottles is made of silver and plated with gold. Hand painted scenes and designs on the insides of the bottls beautify many of the creations.
A collection of foreign Bibles from seven countries tops the hobbies of Miss Helen Rhoda Hoopes, assistant professor emerita of English.
While traveling abroad in 1922, Miss Hoopes saw the famous Passion Play which is given every 10 years by the villagers of Oberammergau, Bavaria. The play is eight hours in length. From this trip, she began a collection of travel books which has enlarged through the years.
Her collection of Bibles includes volumes in French, Spanish, Portuguese, Welsh, Swedish, Hungarian, and German. The German Bible, a Luther translation, was published in 1519. It is bound in calf skin with copper clasps. A Bible with parallel Greek and Latin columns is included in the set.
"Being on the lookout for items to enlarge my collections adds so much while traveling," Miss Hoopes said.
Kansas Has Small 1949 Wheat Crop
Miss Hoopes is currently lecturing and writing. She has had several book reviews published in the Dallas Times Herald this fall.
Topcka, Dec. 20 — (U.P.) — Kansas, the nation's No. 1 wheat state, this year grew its smallest crop since 1941, a final agricultural sizeup showed today. Yet, at the same time, Kansas had a good corn年, the U.S. department of agriculture noted in the year-end report.
The wheat crop, that nosedived in prospects beginning in the past June, even lost ground in the eyes of government experts the past two years. The manmate was off three million bushels from the early fall estimate.
The corn crop, on the other hand, kept improving with succeeding surveys by agriculture department observers. The final figure was 73.196,-000 bushels, up near four million from the September estimate. The yield was smaller than 1948's 81.-304.000 bushels, but it was sharply higher than the poor 40 million bushel harvest in 1947.
Kansas wheat production was 164,208,000 bushels, off more than 68 million from 1948 and down some 122 million from the mammoth harvest in 1947.

"This is a signal honor for Dr. Smith and for the University for him to be chosen for the exacting job, of program chairman of the important annual conference," Dr. Hall said.
Dr. Smith Named Program Chairman
Dr. Carlyle S. Smith, assistant curator in anthropology in the Museum of Natural History, has been appointed program chairman for the 8th Plains conference. The conference is an annual meeting of archaeologists and anthropologists with interests in the Great Plains region.
Man Jailed For Singing Hymns
The conference will be held next summer somewhere in the Great Plains area, said Dr. E. Raymond Hall, director of the Museum of Natural History.
Duncan, Okla. —(U.P.) -Singing hymns too loudly in a local church sent one Duncan man to jail. Police, called by church deacons, booked the enthusiastic singer for public drunkenness.
Washington, Dec. 21.—(U.R.)-Federal judge Henry A. Schweinhaut said today that he will rule in January on motions to dismiss the 14-month-old "lobbying" indictment against Rodger C. Slaughter of Kansas City, Mo.
He was indicted by a federal grand jury in October, 1948, on charges of failing to register as a lobbyist for several Midwest grain exchanges. He insists he was not a lobbyist, but an attorney for the Kansas City and Chicago boards of trade, and for the Minneapolis grain exchange.
Slaughter is a former Democratic congressman from Missouri whose primary election defeat was urged by President Truman in 1946.
His attorneys completed arguments the past March on a motion for dismissal. They contended the lobbyist registration act was unconstitutional, that its provisions would not apply to lawyers even if it were, and that the indictment itself was faulty in that it did not specify the occasions or dates on which Slaughter alleedly violated the act.
Lobby Case Set For January
Schweinhaut said he has not ruled on the motion yet because he is a member of a three-judge statutory court hearing a National Association of Manufacturer's challenge to the constitutionality of the lobbying law.

Physical Education Majors Club Shows Lively Organization, Pep
图
Sasnak, which is Kansas spelled backwards, was formally organized in November, 1937, under the supervision of Dr. F. C. Allen, then chairman of the physical education department. Various clubs had been formed since 1926 by men and women majoring in physical education, but their meetings were irregular and nothing in particular was accomplished. Dr. Allen had suggested the name "Sasnak" to an informal group in 1928, but not until 1937 did a group adopt a constitution and become an effective organization.
Besides sponsoring and naming the club, Dr. Allen started a newsletter which was sent to all graduates from the physical education department. Its purpose was to keep them informed on what the University was doing in their particular field.
Membership in Sasnak, which is Kansas spelled backwards, was open only to majors in physical education, whereas many of the previous clubs had included non-majors who were interested in sports. But Sasnak was a professional organization devoted to promoting interest in physical education as a profession, and providing a group for discussion of problems pertinent to physical education majors.
Tentative plans are being made to charter a bus to take the members to Topeka in March to attend the convention of the Kansas Association of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation. At their meeting on Jan. 6, 1950, the discussion will center on techniques of applying for jobs, and the decision to start teaching after graduation or to work for a master's degree.
For this latter purpose prominent speakers from other departments and other universities were asked to discuss with members any information helpful to physical education majors. However, social life activities were scheduled. At several of the meetings dances and parties were given. The annual spring picnic became a tradition with the majors.
Sasnak had risen to a prominent place in University activities when the war started. This reduced club functions to a minimum. Members continued to hold occasional meetings, but to all practical purposes, these were conducted in the state of affairs continued during the war and the early post-war years.
Then in 1947 Henry Shenk, associate professor of physical education, re-organized the club. With the aid of faculty sponsors, Miss Joie Stapleton, associate professor of physical education, and Reginald Strait, assistant professor of physical education started it again.
Two or three meetings were held during the year at which plans were discussed and a schedule made out for the program of 1948. In 1948 the club began to function more
effectively. Discussion meetings were planned in advance and prominent speakers were obtained at various times throughout the year.
During the teachers' workshop and Career week, Sasnak procured speakers from those meetings to speak before the club. Dr. Carl Nordley, president of the American Association for Health, Physical Education, and Recreation and Dr. Mabel Lee, director of physical education for women at the University of Nebraska, have spoken to the members concerning problems'in the field of physical education.
From the staff of the University, the club has listened to H. E. Chandler, director of the placement bureau in the School of Education, Miss Lilyan, instructor in physical education, and Mr. Denton of Lawrence recreation, and Prof. E.R. Elbel, director of veterans affairs.
Sasnak is just beginning to get started once more and still has a lot to do before its reaches its pre-war activity. It also has to come back in the face of the great popularity of the K-club and the W. A. A. However, Miss Joe Stapleton, Sasnak co-sponsor, pointed out that W. A. A. is open to anyone proficient enough in sports, whereas Sasnak is limited to majors and their interests and problems.
Miss Stapleton said that another reason for the club's slow comeback is that much of a club's activity is based on tradition. Once that tradition is broken it is hard to build it up again. But she believed that Sasnak has come to its lowest point and is on the way up. Meetings have been better planned this year and interest is increasing.

'I was the before
'Twas the night before Christmas when all through the I Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;
And Mamma in her kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap—
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave a lustre of midday to objects below;
When what to my wandering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer,
With a little old driver, so lively and quick
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled and shouted, and called them by name:
"Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! on, Cupid! on, Donder and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall!
Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!"
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky,
So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of toys—and St. Nicholas too.
And then in a twinkling I heard on the roof

Christmas
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nichols came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack.
His eyes, how they twinkled! his dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry;
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow.
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath.
He had a broad face and a little round belly
That shook, when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly.
He was chubby and plump—a right jolly old elf;
And I laughed, when I saw him, in spite of myself.
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread.
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk,
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose.
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle;
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"

SPOTLIGHT SPORTS
By RICHARD DILSAVER
Just to prove that relationships between those cousins on the Kaw, K.U. and K-State, can be amicable, we quote the following comment of V. L. Nicholson, sports editor of the Kansas State Collegian. Writes V.L., after noting that Oklahoma's Bud Wilkinson has nominated Coach J V. Sikes as "Coach of the Year":
"While Wilkinson is probably the best coach in the Big Seven, Mr. Sikes would certainly have to be rated next on the basis of this year's performance. If you have ever seen the OU and KU football squads at close range you know that Jayhawkers are just a bunch alongside the Sooners. When soonsers have muscle, the Jayhawkers have baggy places in their jerseys. Still, they win their share.
"Actually, Dick Tomlinson,
Mike McCormack, Forrest Griffith and maybe a couple of others are the only real he-man types on the Jayhawk squad. While such Sooner stars as Owens, Walker, West, Thomas, Royal, have been throwing their weight around for years, both on the gridiron and in the headlines. They were unable to make Sikes' "boys" look very bad. Players like Linville, Schaake and Bogue carried a lot of the load for the Jayhawks this year and about all they have to prove that they ever played football are a couple of pictures in a high school bookweek.
"And that isn't nearly so silly as it at first sounds.
"Sikes" magic must lay in his ability to get about 99 per cent of what he knows across to his team. Almost always out-weighed, the Jayhawks are seldom out-played and almost never out-smarted. They possess an uncanny ability to get "up" for the big games and a goodly share of what their enemies have all luck." With the addition to his squad of several brilliant performers from this year's freshman team, Sikes is almost certain to move in the runner-up spot behind Wilkinson and may even surpass the young master if his 'luck' holds out.
Well, now, those are nice friendly words, Cousin Nicholson. And we thank you for saying them.
And there is other talk about the Jayhawk head football man drifting amongst the sport pages. A Topeka columnist credits the following yarn to "Ears" Whitworth, new Oklahoma A. & M. gridmaster and former coaching colleague of Sikes at Georgia:
"I remember once while at Georgia, Siki and I were beating the bushes up in Pennsylvania. We were mighty hard up at Georgia and were traveling in an old, beat up car that wouldn't do more than 38 miles an hour. We were blowing down that turnippe—big, four-lane road to Harrisburg—making our limit. Jules slowed down to see what a sign said. It read 'Mountain underpass ahead. Slow down to 70 miles an hour.' Next time I see Old Siki I'm going to remind him that he's just an old low hurdler from Leonard, Texas, and traveling on a mighty fast turnippe, same as I am."
Another Topekan had this to say on the Jayhawker cagers current swing through the East;
"We'll side with the fellow who wonders why Dr. Allen took his bumbers east to play Cincinnati, Duquesne, Holy Cross and Springfield.
"Thats' like trying to get famous by playing Winkum, Blinkum and Nod.
"If you win, you don't get anything."
Perhaps you're right, Mr. Topkean, but we personally invite you to keep a watchful eye on said Cincinnati and Holy Cross teams during the season of the season. Here is one prediction of those two quintets will be rated among the nation's top ten before

He's Shared Headlines With Great Knute Rockne
Elkhart, Ind., Dec. 20—(U.P.)The names of Jack Duffy and Knute Rockne once were coupled in the headlines announcing Notre Dame sports victories. Crowds at football games in the Irish stadium chanted, "Yea Duffy, vea Rockne."
Duffy was a star spinner and member of the Notre Dame quarter-mile relay team, as well as a gridiron mate of Rocke.
Police records show he took to drinking. He was arrested numerous times in the past 10 years on intoxication charges. He failed to appear in court or drunkenness charges last week, forfeiting two bonds.
When their college careers ended, Rocke became the nation's number one football coach before intimately death in an airplane crash.
Yesterday his body was found on the New York Central railroad tracks here. He had been hit by a train.
Duffy started a law practice, but failed to make the grade. After his school he was invited to odd jobs for a living. Recently he was employed as a bricklayer.
County Coroner Dr. Burton Kintner said death "apparently was accidental," but police said they were looking into the possibility of suicide.
They said Duffy was penniless.
Toppeka, Kan., Dec. 20—(U.P.)—Kansas' 1950 high school championship basketball tournaments will be held at familiar sites—Topeka, Salma, and Hutchinson.
State Tournaments At Familiar Sites
The March 15 through 18 tourneys were announced by E. A. Thomas, Kansas State High School Activities association commissioner.
Newton, winner of the state title ten times, is the big school champion, Russel the defender of class A honors and Clearwater this year's No. 1 team in class B.
Thomas said regional tournaments will be announced in a few days.
Topeka will be host to the class AA teams, Salina class A, and Hutchinson Class B.

Harold England is one of the most accurate shooters on the K. U. squad with his left-handed push shot. He hit 39.6 per cent last year, highest mark on the team. England was the scoring whiz of Halstead's 1944-45 Class B state champs, is now in his fourth season here.
Bears Have Fun On The Gridiron
San Francisco, Dec. 20—(U.P.)—Winse or draw, the chances are that university of California's football am will have more fun in the ose bowl game with Ohio State i Jan. 2 than anybody.
While playing the game for keeps, e team never loses its sense of amor.
In every game there is a new ro. Against U.S.C. in the really old year, Frank Brink with his 102rd return of a kick-off.
Against U.C.L.A. it was the imperturbable Bob Celeri with his brilliant signal calling and booting plays. Against Santa Clara it was reserve quarterback Boots brb; and in several games it was used in the four performances of tech men as All-Starod Franz; all-coast tackle Jim Turner; sophomore center Les ichter, and others.
Tackle Jim Cullom, the "toe" for the team, also is the club's big, God-natured clown. Waldorf tells the story of one day when everything was going wrong at practice, in this particular play, Cullom was supposed to pull out of the line, run down field, and then come back to run some interference on bootleg play for Celeri. But he got until the play was over, then shed over to the place where he
is surprised to be standing when
she is told, hoping Pappy
kills it notice.
Waldorf noticed, all right, and called Cullom out, trying Dave schmalenberg on the same play, to Waldorf's horror, Schmalenberg did exactly the same thing, appy called time out and went into muddle to bawl the boys out. He had his mouth open, ready to lilf Schmalenberg, when Culin pipes up:
"Leave him alone, Pappy. If the I just has a case of hero worship ve him alone."
After that Waldorf says the prac- went along smoothly.
The fellow who has made little the way of headlines but is a good gamble to be the hero of the owl bowl is Jim Monachino, a -year-old 200-pound halfback -the right or left. He played light a lot of the season, but owed to left when injuries detected the Bear backfield ranks. was so steady all year, that was exceeded until the end of the season that he led the Bear (1) times carried ball, 125; (2) yardage on ground, 694; (3) gain per carry, 5.55; and most important (4) in scoring wiff points.
Waldorf, a strong proponent of two-platoon system, will stick his T-formation for the Rose wl, but he'll depend, as always, that terrific power his teams enerate wide and outside the tacе positions.
Fuchs, Button In Toss Up For James Sullivan Trophy
New York, Dec. 20—(U.P.)—The James E. Sullivan memorial trophy awarded annually to the nation's outstanding amateur athlete is up for grabs today and it looks like a toss-up between Jim Fuchs, Yale's world record shot putter, and Dick Button, Harvard figure skater.
These would seem to be the two front runners as the balloting is conducted to pick one of seven candidates—five men and two women—that is an outside possibility that any of them could win, it, notably Fred Wilt, the former Indiana distance runner and Allen Stack, Yale's backstroke ace.
The other candidates are Doris Hart of Miami, runner-up in the National Women's singles; Barbara Jensen, San Francisco swimmer and Joe Verdeur, Philadelphia breast-stroke ace.
Fuchs, the Yale football and track star from Chicago, looks like a good bet. He boosted the world 16-pound standard to 58 feet, four and 27/54 inches at Oslo, Norway, last summer. A member of the 1948 Olympic team, he also N.C.A.A. and A.A.U. champ and record holder.
Button, the New Jersey youngster, during the 1947-48 season has won every available major figure skating championship in the world, including the Olympic title.
Stack is a tank phenomenon who holds every existing world backstroke record except for 100 yards. He also has set three American short course records and seven American 20-yard course marks in winning the intercollegiate, N.C.A.A., A.A.U. and Olympic crowns.
Another tank man is Verdeun, holder of two world breaststroke records and an Olympic winner in unequalled time.
Probably the most deserving of an award based on sportsmanship and courage as well as performance, is Miss Hart.
Stricken with infantile paralysis when she was a child, Miss Hart used tennis to fight her way back to health after an operation. At the age of 14 she won the Southern Women's championship and proved a stirring and heartening example to other unfortunate children.
Doris took the National Junior girls' championship in 1942 and 1943 but in the big ones—at Wimbledon and Forest Hills—four times has been unable to crash through as she finished second best.
During the war, Miss Hart traveled 20,000 miles to play in Army and Navy camps. Recently misfortune struck again and she underwent an eye operation. But since then she has come back with all her famed gameness to win the Eastern Grass courts, National Hard courts and the Mexico City International tournament.
But Fuchs, with his world record, will be a tough man to shade. It's too bad that they can't slice it up and divide it seven ways.
She would be a splendid winner But then, so would the others.
Slugging percentages, compiled on the basis of a batter's total bases divided by his total times at bat, showed that Kiner and Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals swept the field by a wide margin.
Boston, Dec. 21-The University of Kansas basketball team lost 43 to 57 to the Holy Cross college team in Boston Garden Tuesday night.
KU Loses 43 To 57
New York, Dec. 20—(U.P.)-Ralph Kiner of Pittsburgh, amassing the maximum mileage out of his base hits, paced the National league with a slugging percentage of .658 during the 1949 season, according to official averages released today.
Kiner hit for 361 total bases in 549 times at bat, beating Musial by 34 points. The Cardinal outfielder registered 382 total bases in 612 trips to the plate for a .624 percentage.
Kiner Tops NL Batters
Kiner, who also paced the league in runs batted in with 127, drew the most bases on balls, 117.
Placing a distant third to Kiner and Musial in slugging was league's leading hitter, Jackie Robinson of Brooklyn, who racked up a .528 mark. He was followed by Del Ennis of the Phillies with .525 and Bobby Thomson of the Giants with .518.
The toughest batter to strike out among the regulars was sharp-eyed Tommy Holmes, Boston Brave outfielder, who calls "strike three" only six times.
Brooklyn outfielder Ed (Duke)
Snider earned the title of "horse-
collar Harry" by striking out the
most times, 92.
In team slugging, the Dodgers ranked tops with a collective mark of 419.

Punishment
Leonard Eilers, the Milwaukee man who was arrested recently for playing "Mule Train" on juke boxes at least 481 times in one wild spree, shouldn't have been given probation. He should have been required to drive a real, live 40-mule train across a couple of western states with no time off for applying linament. Yeeeeeeah! —The Columbia Missouri
We noticed in one of the United Press dispatches recently one of the most startling bits of news we've seen in a long time. It seems that Princess Margaret has purchased a "wicked" dress
Point Of View
While we admittedly don't travel in quite the same social sphere as Princess Margaret, we're always interested to hear such fascinating tidbits of information about her. We also think it nice of the United Press to delay such trivia as news about the Russians' atomic bomb, revolution in the Balkans and bloodshed in China so we can be the first to know that Margaret's new dress has a plunging neckline which she was forced to sew up.
We would like to ask the United Press to inform Princess Margaret that we have purchased a "wicked" new tie, which our parents won't let us wear until the hand-painted nudes adorning it have been decently attired.—D.R. in the Iowa State Daily
Does a college education unfit women for their roles as wives and mothers?
Men In Disguise
Consider the question for a moment and think just how men "technical" training you are getting for your future role as a wife and mother. Not too much, eh? Are you getting gypped? Have you been slickered by the educators? Are you being made into a "man in disguise?"
A graduate of Barnard, eastern college for women, had this to say about it: "No one would hire a stenographer who cannot type, but we expect men to marry us whether or not we can cook, no matter how little we know about children. It is appalling."
The educational system is undoubtedly streamlined to fit men. Its unfortunate degeneration has resulted in the art of making a living rather than the art of living. Women have been swept into the maggot gag of commercialism. Domesticity is still the mainstay of civilization, regardless of the career "gals."
Actually, no drastic change needs to be made in the feminine college curriculum per se, but a readjustment of college courses should be made to equip young women for their future roles. A kitchen may not be as romantic as the stage, but chances are it's a better way to keep a husband. Men who run from home are usually escaping an empty one.
—J. R. in the Oklahoma Daily
Supersonic Pilot Flies High, Wide, And Handsome In X-1
Hamlin, W.Va.—(U.P.)—The first supersonic flier has said that the air force's "obsolete" X-1 rocket ship has been flown by eight men at speeds of almost 1,000-miles-an-hour in tests to gather data for four improved rocket models.
Charles Yeager, 26-year-old air force captain, disclosed at his home here that eight of the 12 pilots who tested the X-1 at Wright-Patterson Air Force base, Dayton, Ohio, flew the ship "more than 200 miles faster than the speed of sound."
He declined for security reasons to disclose the maximum speed that the rocket ship achieved. However, since sound travels at the rate of 760-miles-an-hour at sea level it meant the plane at least came close to the 1.000-mile an-hour mark.
Captain Yeager said the rocket ship is being junked by the aerial arm of the military and four new and improved models are coming off the drawing boards or assembly lines.
Captain Yeager was the first flies to crack the supersonic barrier two years ago in an experimental flight at the Muroc, Calif., air base.
A new X-4 already is being built by Northrup Aviation company, he said, and Douglas Aircraft company is blueprinting the X-3, Bell aircraft company the X-2 and probably the X-5.
"We're practically with through the plane," he said. "We have about the data we want from it and push it up to about the most it will go."
The aerial ace said the X-1 was not developed as a definite fighting craft, but principally "to get data on how to best build" supersonic
Carlyle S. Smith, assistant professor of sociology and anthropology, will speak on "The American Indians" at 7 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 5 before Phil Alpha Theta, honorary history fraternity, in the English room of the Union.
Professor Smith explained that the term "American Indians" refers to all native people of North and South America, not just those of the United States and Canada.
Smith Will Speak On 'Indians' Jan. 5
"In some aspects, a better term for Latin America would be Indian America," Professor Smith said.
He said the physical effects of such flights were no different than "an armchair at home". Prohibitive fuel costs is one of the main barriers to commercial aviation in the supersonic, Captain Yeager said.

Movies
Dear Editor:
On other campuses, cooperation between students and the administration has brought about the showing of films which are not usually included in the programs at the regular theaters. We feel that there is enough interest among K. U. students to justify a similar program here.
Such a program would provide an opportunity to see great movies of the past and foreign films which are not shown in Lawrence or in most of the communities in which K. U. students will eventually live.
Won't you join us in assuring the administration that if they'll show the movies, we'll show up?

$10 For Ostrich Egg!! Should Make Good Omelette
S. Augustine, Fla., Dec. 20—(U.P.)—President Truman may or may not have eaten ostrich egg omelette during his Key West vacation. He wouldn't say.
Ever since Mr. Truman received four of the cantala-shaped eggs from St. Augustine ostrich man Jim Casper, the world has waited for report on how the huge henfruit tastes in an omellette.
The president was reticent. He would say only—through an administrative assistant—that the eggs were "very much enjoyed" at Key West. But newsmen couldn't find out if he had fun eating them or just looking at them.
So, wanting to fill the void left by the President's non-comment on ostrich eggs, we asked Chef Pete Lovell of the Alhambra hotel here to whip up a special "ostrich egg melette a la Truman" for me and 2 other guests of Casper, the ostrich man.
But it broke, and the contents umbled out. The insides resembled giant chicken egg. The yolk was bout the size of a baseball.
First Lovell knocked the huge egg against the side of the table. It took quite a healthy whack to break it. Ostrich egg shells are strong.
Using a three-quart pan, the chef added a little beer and some Alhamra sauce, made with his secret recipe, and the pan soon overflowed.
So Loveli transferred the mixture to three hotel-sized frying pans and booked it for eight minutes.
The result was fluffy, light, golden and inviting-looking. It made three melettes which measured a yard (end to end) and six inches wide.
Ostrich egg omelette would be a nice dish when you have 13 guests breakfast sometime.
It was good, much the same as a regular omelette. If anything it was little sweeter and creamiest and not a slightest bit "gramey."
If you could afford it, that is,
then you can get them, ostrich eggs

Culture Tie Discovered
Lincoln—(U.P.) A human dwelling site discovered in southwest ebraska will help solve the riddle a little known prehistoric people who once lived in the Great Plains, Mott Davis, University of Nebraska anthropologist, said recently. The site near Cambridge, in central Nebraska near the Kansas line, elided stone blades and scrapers, ad unusual leaf-shaped points shioned from flint, Davis said. The ar-hip long points are almost antica to those found three years o near Plainview, Texas, and simr to others found near Hot springs, S.D., the past summer. Linking the Nebraska discovery th finds in Texas and South Dakota is a major step toward establishing the "Plainview culture" which existed in the Great Plains at last 5,000 years ago, according tothropologists.

Josef Stalin Is 70 Today
London, —(U.P.)—Premier Josef Stalin of Russia is celebrating his 70th birthday today amid a skillful propaganda campaign that has placed him in a niche just short of sainthood in the eyes of his followers.
Moving little by little into the background of the Kremlin scene he dominated so completely during the war, Stalin now is known as "Great Stalin," the "Teacher and Leader" of millions of faithful Soviet Communists the world over.
Lengthy birthday poems, a mountain of resolutions and a highway of petitions are conferring on Stalin a Georgian cobbler's son, such titles as "theoreticion and Initiator of the Transformation of Nature in the U.S.S.R."
Rallying to the call for veneration, Czech Communists produced a scroll with an estimated 9,000,000 signatures. In addition they renamed the highest peak in their country "mount Stalin" and planted a Soviet flag atop it. Five million Bulgarians signed a similar petition.
But Stalin's birthday is not marked by idolatry alone. Trains and planes are moving on Moscow bearing gifts from Communists both east and west. The keynote of birthday pronouncements is production, and still more production, in the name of Stalin.
Many of the Gifts were prosia items of everyday use intended for distribution among the Russian people—diapers, gloves and sweaters from the Germans, embroidery, beer, and lace from the Belgians, wine, wooden sheets and a coal shovel from France.
Among the prosiaic gifts were items with a rarer flavor.
French Communists gave Stalin the trumpet which sounded the alarm when vineyard workers rose against the government in 1907. German Communists sent back captured Russian battle flags. Hungarian Communists sent a ‘wonder telephone’ with which 14 numbers could be called at one time—the number of members of the Poultry-Italian Communists sent a $10,860 black Alfa roadster. Belgian Communists sent a copy of the Brussels telephone directory. Russian Communist whalers in the arctic promised to kill 60 per cent more whales this season.
One group of German Communists fell down on their promise and were forced to send the model of a planetarium. They had planned to deliver the planetarium itself but it won't be ready for several years.

South Dakota Trades Fish For Turkeys
Pierre, S. D. — (U.P.)—South Dakota, which became the greatest pheasant hunting state in the nation within 20 years after the first Chinese ring-tailed deer in the state, now hopes to furnish excellent, wild turkey hunting in the future.
The state is getting the turkeys from New Mexico and Colorado.
It traded 10,000 catfish for 15 Colorado turkeys, and a few sage hens for some New Mexico turkeys
The turkeys were planted in the Black Hills, where they are "coming along fine."

This Santa Claus Comes To Aid Of Forgotten Men
THIRTEEN
Oklahoma City, Okla. Dec. 21—(U.P.)—A Santa Claus without whiskers was hurrying Tuesday to put the Christmas spirit of good will into the hearts of a legion of forgotten men.
Vinson has received letters from risoners in almost every state.
One came from a man who has been in prison seven years whose three children "think I'm out West on a ranch."
"I don't buy things," he said. "I just find people who want to help those who are unfortunate. I have 25,000 or 35,000 volunteer helpers in Oklahoma."
The requests he filled did not come from eager children. They were written by convicts who want their children's stockings filled on Christmas eve.
"I'd like to send them some western clothes for Christmas," the convict wrote. "I can't tell them where I am."
This year, he is concentrating on helping the children of convicts. He wrote letters to prison warriors and sent them his plans and explaining that he learned about convicts when he built roads with prison labor.
Their benefactor was "Uncle Dan" Vinson of Oklahoma City who is determined to find gifts for kids the regular Santa Claus forgets each year.
"Those men love their kids just like anybody else," he said.
A rancher in Western Oklahoma will fill the prisoner's request—and more.
"The kids will get their outfits, and when the man gets out of jail, he'll have a job on a ranch." Vinson said. "Then after a few months he can go home and tell the truth."
Not all of Uncle Dan's requests come from convicts, however.
One woman asked for a house in California for "myself and my three children." Uncle Dan said he simply couldn't fill that request.
Vinson said he started helping others in 1944, when he went into semi-retirement on royalties from his asphalt business. He's carried on his Christmas hobby ever since
One of the letters he received came from a man in the death row at an Oklahoma prison. Uncle Dan answered that one in person to assist the loser that his son would get the best bike possible for Christmas.
"You don't know how much that means to me, Dan," the condemned man replied. "I've been thinking about his Christmas. I'm ready to go."
Washington, — (U.P.)—Veterans are proving themselves excellent loan risks.
More than one and a half million ex-servicemen are paying for new homes with loans that are partially backed by the veterans administration. Up to now fewer than 5,000 have defaulted on their loans. That's a fraction of one per cent.
Few Default On VA Loans
The Veterans administration is "out of pocket" 6 and a half million on loans defaulted by home-buying veterans. It has lost $7 million on business loans. The V.A. expects, however, to recover a substantial amount on these losses by selling property taken over after loan payments lapsed.
Only 53,000 veterans have obtained loans to buy farms and according to the V.A. just 1.6 per cent have defaulted on their loans.
The record isn't that good on farm and business loans approved for veterans. But of the 112,582 veterans who received business loans since end of the war only six per cent have failed to keep up their payments and defaulted.

Students Sing Swedish German Songs At Party
The significance of Christmas is Christ, Herbert Ketterman, president of Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship, told members recently. The church and the throne he pointed out, divide Christ's life into three phases.
A 16th century German Nativity play was presented at the annual German department Christmas party Monday in the Museum of Art. Don Dixon, assistant professor of speech, directed the play.
The cross, believes Mr. Ketterman,
is God's most eloquent word for
mankind. Through it a person can
find God's love.
The musical direction for the play was done by Clayton Krehbiel assistant professor in education. Other directors were: Muriel Burzle, former instructor in German, costumes; Thomas Shay, graduate student, stage; and Milton Commons, graduate student, lighting.
Christ on the throne, he said, is "king of kings and lord of lords." Yet, Christ is king only as men receive him and give to him their loyalty and devotion, he pointed out. An individual can accept or reject the "throne".
Two selections from Beethoven's "Quartet in C Minor, opus 18," were played by a string quartet. Members of the quartet were Merle Clayton, the senior senior, cello; Isabella Addams, the junior cello; violin; Donald Stewart, College sophomore, first violin; and Lawrence Long, College freshman, viola.
A Russian choir under the direction of Sam F. Anderson, instructor in German, presented a Cossack dance and sang two numbers. The songs were: "The Russian Bell-Ringing Song," and "The Troika in the Moonlight and the Snow."
A Swedish group led by Per-Hugo Sjojgren, instructor in German, performed a traditional Swedish folk dance around the Christmas tree. The group sang three Swedish Christmas songs while dancing. They were: "Hej," Tomtegubbar," Skara, skara, harve," and "Nu ar det Juligen."
Community singing was held between the various parts of the program. Songs included "O Tannenbaum." "O du frohliche," "Herbei, O Ihr Glaubigen," and "Stille Night."
Significance Of Christmas Told
Seven faculty members of the School of Engineering and Architecture attended a meeting of the Kansas chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers in Topeka Dec. 16.
Seven Attend ASCE Meet
F. A. Russell, professor of engineering drawing, received a certificate of life membership in the society. He has been a member of the organization for 26 years.
Those attending from KU were
George W. Bradshaw and W. C. McNown; Professors of civil engineering; D. Haines; Thurmal McMahon, D. P. Schiesswohl, assistant professors of civil engineering; and Robert Smith, assistant professor of applied mechanics.
R. L. Peyton, concrete engineer of the Kansas State highway commission spoke on "Kansas Experi-员 of Parking Permits." 14-2. *Parking regulations*
Some parking regulations will be removed in University parking zones during Christmas vacation but restrictions on Jayhawk drive will remain in the park, Donald Alderson, chairman of the committee, said today.
The revision will begin at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday and will remain in effect until 8 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 3, 1950.
However, traffic tickets will be issued anytime to drivers who park overtime on Jayhawk drive between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. on weekdays and between 8 a.m. and noon on Satdays. Tickets will also be given to anyone who parks at the curb areas painted red.
ISA Plans 'Bum's Ball' 'Apple Polishing Party'
The "Bum's ball" was set for Feb. 4 and plans were discussed for an "Apple Polishing party" at an Independent Student's association council meeting Monday.
Joe E. Sheldon, College sophomore, was appointed bulletin board chairman. Auditions will be held by an entertainment committee at Watkins hall Jan. 6 and 7.
The Independent Students association has been granted $450 from student activity funds, Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, said Chancellor Deane W. Malott made the grant to enable the L.S.A. to carry out the program they have planned for the year.
ISA Granted $450 From Activity Fund
The association had asked the All Student Council for $780. Their first request was denied and their second request yielded only $300.
The L.S.A. is planning a "Bum's ball" for Saturday, Feb. 4, movies at special prices for L.S.A. members polishing parties during orientation week of the second semester, and a spring formal dance Friday, April 21.
Second Hiss Trial Replica Of First
New York—(U.P.)-Alger Hiss told his second perjury trial jury that the political philosophy he demonstrated as one of the state department's outstanding young diplomats could not have been that of a "fellow traveller."
Hiss' oath that he never violated "the trust and confidence" placed in him left the jury with the same choice as the first trial jury—whether to believe Hiss or his accuser, Whittaker Chambers. The first jury was unable to reach a unanimous decision.
Hiss began testifying Monday in his own defense and repeated his belief that he ever stole confidential government documents for a communist spy rpyr.
He is charged with lying to a federal grand jury when he denied that he ever stole documents for Chambers or saw the former Comer 1, 1937. When asked whether he did either the "Pumpkin Papers" or "Baltimore Papers" placed in evidence by Chambers, Hiss replied:
"No. I did not
Hiss said his opinion differed with that of several of his state department superiors who feared that the United States would lose its neutrality if it aided the allies then. The defendant inferred that his position showed that he was not pro-Russian.
Hiss pointed out that in 1939, a few weeks after Chambers first denounced him as a Communist, he wrote a memorandum arguing that there was nothing in international law to prevent the United States from aiding the allies against the Nazi-Soviet bloc.
The 45-year-old lawyer seemed to have lost some of the smiling assurance he had at his first trial. He was thinner, tight-lipped and solenn. While testifying he kept his eyes on his wife, Priscilla.
Washington U Head To Speak Feb. 27
Dr. Arthur H. Compton, chancellor of Washington university, St. Louis, Mo., will speak Monday, Feb. 27, 1950, at the opening convocation of Religious Emphasis week.
His topic will be "Power With Purpose". Dr. Compton directed the plutonium research for the government from 1942 through 1945.
In 1927, Dr. Compton won the Nobel prize for work on X-rays. He was chairman of the physics department and dean of the physical science department at the University of Chicago before becoming chancellor of Washington university
Washington Fraternities Play In Garbage Bowl Game
Seattle,—(U.P.)—Titles for bowl games just about reached the end of the line here when two University of Washington fraternities battled for possession of the intramural football trophy.
The Phi Gamma Delta team defeated Sigma Alpha Epsilon 6-0 in a game played on a recently filled-in portion of the city dump; just off the campus.
The contest goes into the record books as the first annual Garbage Bowl game.
Soviet Naval Plans Include 1,000 Super Subs
London, Dec. 21.—(U.P.)-The authoritative naval yearbook "Jane's Fighting Ships" said Tuesday, that Soviet naval plans call for completion of 1,000 super-submarines by next year and a number of battle-ships firing radio-controlled aerial torpedoes.
Janes's appeared skeptical that the Soviet submarine plan would be fulfilled but predicted that "revolutionary" types of warships would appear in a few years, including atomic bomb carriers.
"It is doubtful whether the Russians have the shipyard capacity and the trained technicians necessary to build an underwater fleet of this size in such a short time," Jane's said.
The Soviet super-submarine fleet was scheduled to be completed under the latest Soviet five-year plan by 1950-51. Jane's said. Four hundred would be placed in service in the Far East, 300 in the Baltic, and the remainder in the White and Black seas.
"It is reported that a type of submarine with a very great range and a very high submerged speed is being built."
The section on Russian submarines showed craft with recorded speeds up to 18 knots. It reported the belief that the Russians now have 360 submarines, including former German underseas boats.
The new 1949-50 edition of the annual, published Tuesday, was described in naval circles as an interim type of edition necessitated by the changeover from wartime to peacetime navies. It predicted startling changes in naval warfare soon.
"In the next few years we are likely to see several categories of warships of revolutionary type, the atomic bomb carrier, guided misfire control ship, the task force commander, anti-submarine cruiser, rocket desterners, fast low-lying frigates, and gas turbine ships," Jane's said.
"There are signs that new warships are in the making. Warships are being designed, not as improvements or developments of previous classes, but from first principles for a specific role of countering a potential enemy type."
Williams Air Force Base, Ariz., (U.P.)-The air force has begun operations here on an ejector launch tower that will hurl pilots thousands of miles an hour to simulate emergency, escape from high-speed jet aircraft.
Air Force Installs Pilot-Hurler Tower
The 28-ton tower, the first of its kind installed for pilot training, was built by a former naval officer, Merril A. Mader, now a civilian engineer with the Allis-Chalmers standard jet plane seat mounted on company, Milwaukee.
Mr. Mader said the tower has a an inclined track 100 feet high. The pilot, equipped with full flight gear, is strapped to the seat and shot in to the air by the explosion of a 37-nm. cartridge.
Mr. Mader said the pilot will travel 40 miles an hour at the start and will rise to a height of 50 feet subject to a pressure of 16 times the force of gravity. The pilot is returned to the ground by a special braking mechanism on the track.
The tower, Mr. Mader said, is similar to the pilot ejector mechanism now installed in jet aircraft. He said explosive force is necessary since air pressure makes it impossible for a pilot to escape from a plane travelling 500 to 600 miles an hour.
The tower installed here was built from a test model developed at Wright-Paterson field, Dayton, Ohio. An air force spokesman said all personnel of the jet fighter training school here will go through tower tests.

VIRGIN MARIA WITH BABY JESUS IN MILK CELL
Luke 2:7-15
And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them, Fear not: behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST
AND ON EARTH PEACE, GOOD WILL TO MEN

New Printing Techniques Will Lower Printing Costs
Newspaper publishing is on the threshold of a new era, believes John R. Malone, instructor in journalism. He bases his belief on the knowledge that modern techniques in printing have reduced the cost of new equipment needed to print a weekly newspaper from $30,000 to $15,000.
Mr. Malone tells of these modern techniques in printing in a book he has recently written, "The New Printing Methods." The book was a project of the Kansas Industrial Research foundation and was published in co-operation with the University bureau of business research.
"No startling inventions are introduced in this book," said Mr. Malone. "Rather, the book tells of new techniques in publishing that are the combination of several recent developments in the field. These techniques are cutting printing costs by one-third to one-half. To achieve the consumer market, commercial printing in the United States is done by one of these new techniques called photo-offset lithography."
What is this new printing technique called photo-offset lithography? The main difference between this method and the letterpress printing, that today produces 70 percent of the printed word line.
in the preparation of the plates from which the image is transferred onto the paper.
In letterpress printing the plates are made of lead blocks which are cast by the linotype machine with the letters to be printed from them upraised on their surface. Illustrations and pictures to appear on the paper must be engraved separately. The completed plate for a page the size of that of the University Daily Kansas weighs about 48 pounds.
In photo-offset lithography the printed material may be written on an ordinary typewriter. This printed material along with any pictures or illustrations is arranged in the order in which it is to be printed. A photograph is taken of this arrangement. The negative of this photograph is then exposed on a sheet of sensitized zinc. This zinc sheet weighs less than one pound and from it the impression is printed.
This zinc plate is used on an offset press which differs from the printing press used in the older letterpress method in the way the inked impressions are transferred to the paper. In the older method the image is transferred directly to the paper by pressing the inked directly against the paper. To lessen wear and the zinc plate in the offset press the image is transferred first from the zinc sheet to a rubber covered cylinder and from the cylinder to the paper.
These new developments make possible the use of equipment that
costs only a fraction of the price charged for the equipment used in the older letterpress method. New electric typewriters cost $500 may be substituted for linotypes that cost $3,500 in used condition.
The ease with which the plates may be prepared in the photo-offset lithography method has decidedly cut the cost of preparing the plates. Explains Mr. Malone in his book: "One book publisher estimated that the new type plates cost $1,000 against $6,000 for plates if set by orthodox methods for a 300-page book.
"In short, the new processes will improve the competitive nature of the small printing and publishing business and will take much of the advantage away from the large producer. The new developments diminish the value of fixed and semi-fixed costs by large amounts, giving the large machine producer of advertising or printing in general less of an advantage."
YMCA To Organize Discussion Groups
In response to an article which appeared in the University Daily Kansas, members of the Y. M. C. A have undertaken the task of organizing discussion groups in university houses.
The group will meet at their own appointed time and discussion chairman will be chosen from among the group members. A wide variety of topics will be discussed such as differe-nt job opportunities, job open-portunities, human capital sex, and marriage, and the importance of religion in the world today.
Students working on the project are David Hill, Bob Payne, Gerald Peterson, Henry Infante, and Jack Jevons, freshmen; Loren Simpson, senior; Woody Davis, Warren Andreas, Kenneth Carrol, sophomores; Claude Moore, Jack Howard, and Bill Herwig, juniors.
Students interested in joining any of the discussion groups should contact any of those above mentioned men.

Supreme Court Decides Pickets
Washington, Dec. 20—(U.P.)The supreme court has agreed to decide whether labor unions may engage in peaceful picketing of non-union establishments where no direct labor dispute exists.
The immediate issue involves three Washington state court rulings that such picketing is "coercive" and hence illegal. In a brief session before recessing on Monday, Jan. 9, the tribunal also did the following:
1—They held that an ex-G.I. who fled to this country to escape army court martial proceedings in Germany must return to face the music. The case involves James W. Mobley, Houston, Texas, who, after his discharge from the army, worked in the army post exchange, Frankfurt, Germany; he was killed on charges of taking, 19,600 cigarettes to sell on the black market, but he fled to this country to escape trial. The court's refusal to review the case means that Mr. Mobley must return to face trial.
2-They ruled, in effect, that the California State Automobile association is subject to federal income taxes. It did so by refusing to review a lower federal court ruling holding that the association is liable to income taxes. The ruling may affect similar clubs in other states.
3—They ruled, 6 to 2, that the government doesn't have to pay freight charges on an ocean cargo that never reached its destination. In this case, the cargo was aboard a ship that was torpedoed and sunk by a German submarine in 1942. The ruling went against the Alcoa Steamship company that had billed the government for $3,520 in freight charges.
4—They refused to review the murder conviction of Howard S. Gibson, Beverly Hills, Calif., a butcher who slashed his estranged wife's threat because he claimed she was untrue to him. The court's action leaves Mr. Gibson's life sentence standing.

Door Represents Teacher's Dream
Pittsburgh —(U.P.) Thornburg school, with three rooms and an enrollment of 54, isn't large as schools go, but it'll stack its doors up against anybody's.
A pair of nine-foot-tall polished bronze and plate glass doors are the entrance to the otherwise unimpressive little building.
The doors represent a long-time hope of Karl W. Atwater, late president of the school board, and bear a plaque to his memory.
maritime commission, intervened. The commission ruled that doors were strictly non-military, non-national and not of wartime shipping space. The Brazilian company complained, but the doors remained in Pittsburgh.
Long before World War II, Atwater had hoped some day to replace a pair of rickety, dull doors on the Thornburg school. But unimspiring as they might have been, modern doors served their purpose and one but Athewyn ever mentioned turning them in on a new model.
Just a short time before the war, a South American company asked a Pittsburgh manufacturer to provide a fancy set of doors for a proposed factory. The doors were built and polished and packed for the long boat trin to Brazil.
Then the war, in the form of the Maritime commission, intervened.
Immediately after the war, the commerce department slapped export controls on American business and required the licensing of items to be shipped abroad. The resulting delay was just one too many for the South American company, which cancelled its order and left the Pittsburghs with a beautiful but useless set of doors.
In April, 1948. Atwater died.
The people of Thornburg, anxious to prepetuate his memory in the school he loved, planned a memorial. Someone recalled that Atwater didn't like the old wooden doors.
A chain reaction took place. Another member of the planning committee knew of the cancelled Brazilian order for beautiful doors. The gleaming, nine-foot portals were just right, almost as if they had been intended for the Thornburg school in the first place.
Atwater's school has the doors he wanted so much. Engraved on them is a small notice that they were donated to his memory "by his grateful neighbors."

Hot' Atoms Are Nuisance, Atomic Commission Learns
Washington,—(U.P.)-The atomic energy commission has reported t is licking the tough problem of safely getting rid of the "hot" atoms t doesn't want.
Up to now the U.S. atomic project has managed to get rid of its deadly ray-splitting by-products without damaging people, plants, or animals
That is a good thing, the A.E.C. said, because "successful use of atomic energy will develop on a wide scale only if production plants, laboratories, and hospitals carry on their operations so that the environment receive waste does no harm to the surrounding community of plants, animals, and men."
In the whole history of the project only two persons have died of radiation injury, and they were hurt not by waste products, but by radiation accidentally encountered in the course of research work.
But as atomic industry develops, and new and "hotter" atomic engines and reactors come into operation, disposing of radioactivity contaminated materials will become more and more of a problem.
Recent improvements, the A.E.C. said, have cut by 20 per cent the volume of liquid wastes to be stored. It added that anticipated future improvements will reduce
These wastes are in three forms—gaseous, fluid, and solid. As of now, “hot” gases are diluted and blown into the atmosphere from high stacks, fluids are stored or discharged into flowing steams, and solids are buried or burned in “closed cycle” incinerators.
A big task is to concentrate the bulky wastes from a huge plant like the Hanford, Wash., Plutonium factory and get rid of them in small volumes that will not contaminate large areas.
Scientists have found kinds of bacteria that seem to like their food atoms hot and are using them to concentrate radioactivity in sludges that can then be disposed of.
the volume to 50 per cent with saving of "about one million dollars a year."
The radioactivity problem touches almost everything involved in the atomic project—clothing, tools, machines, and even buildings.
Some of the wastes from Hanford are buried until their most unstable atoms have "cooled" off and then are mixed with concrete in drums and dumped 30 miles out in the Pacific.
"In extreme cases," the A.E.C. said, "The buildings may be painted to hold the radiation in as a protection to workers. After painting the buildings are taken apart board by board and the boards buried."

Red-Haired Pastor May Run For Oklahoma Senatorship
Oklahoma City, —(U.P.)—A red-haired preacher with senatorial ambitions is asking Oklahomans to mix religion with their politics—perhaps by sending him to Washington.
The Rev. William H. Alexander, 34-year-old former nightclub entertainer, is on the verge of entering the 1950 senate race.
The eloquent pastor of Oklahoma City's First Christian church wants to oppose 74-year-old E l m e n Thomas, who will be seeking his fifth term. Both are Democrats.
The Rev. Mr. Alexander's huge congregation has given him permission to enter the race, providing he will continue as pastor of the church. The preacher says that if elected he would commute from Washington in his private plane to keep his pulpit filled.
The board of elders of the church, representing some 3,500 members, eventually may become a strategy committee in the Rev. Mr. Alexander's political career. The pastor has discussed his political ambitions frankly with the entire congregation. Most of the members hope he runs.
Senator Thomas, a greying political warhorse who wields great power in Washington through his seniority, professes the same hope, because the Rev. Mr. Alexander would "liven up the race, draw some crowds."
A third possible entry in the race. Rep. Mike Monrony, (D., Okla), hasn't commented publicly on the Rev. Mr. Alexander's trial balloon launches. Representative Monrony has heeded a commitment until deciding himself whether to file against Senator Thomas or to seek another term in the house.
The Rev. Mr. Alexander told his congregation on a recent Sunday that the argument that you can't mix politics and religion "leaves me cold."
"If you want to know why we are in the mess we are in today," he is simply because we haven't mixed enough religion in politics.
The Rev Mr. Alexander was born in St. Louis. He led his own dance band at 17. After several years of night club work, he turned to the church and came here in 1942 after a short but successful stay in a Los Angeles church

Doug Jennings, journalism senior, was elected editor of the Sour Owl, campus humor publication, and Russell J. Oleson, journalism junior, was elected president of Sigma Delta Chi at a meeting of the professional journalism fraternity Thursday.
Other officers elected by the fraternity were Edward Chapin, vice president; Keith Leslie, secretary; and Francis Kelley, treasurer.
The election was necessary because some of the former officers are candidates for graduation in January. They are Richard Barton, editor of the Sour Owl, Marvin Rowlands, president of the fraternity, John Riley, vice-president, and James Scott, secretary. Jennings was treasurer but resigned to devote his time to the Sour Owl.

It's No Parking Violation If The Car Is 'A Wreck'
Minneapolis—(U.P.)—John J. Malley went to court to protest against tickets that a police man had issued on his car.
"It isn't a car," Malloy told the judge. "It's a wreck."
Judge Rolf Fosseen ruled that if the car was no longer a car but a wreck, Malloy must be found not guilty of parking violations.
The car was towed into the police station, consigned to a wrecking company.

Army Engineers Hope To Make 'Green Hell' Of Everglades Safe Area
Tallahassee, Fla.—(U.R.)—Army engineers have set out to tame the Everglades, a treacherous, broad river of grass and jungle stretching 100 miles through south Florida.
Conversion of the green bell of this Florida jungle into an area safe from disastrous floods, muck fires and drought is part of a program which will cost $208 million. But the complete program will do more than make the Everglades more habitable.
The engineers' battle with the Everglades is the continuation of a century-old effort by the people of Florida to control that broad 40-mile-wide river of grass.
It will also prevent floods and drought over an area of 15,570 square miles in central and southern Florida, a region comprising one fourth of the state and larger than the combined areas of three New England states.
Unique characteristics of geography are what makes the job of controlling the water in southern and central Florida so difficult.
The region is divided into five drainage areas, of which the Everglades is one.
Nature has broken these large areas into smaller basins. From the standpoint of water control, all the parts are dependent, one on the other, separated only by indistinguishable flat divides of land.
The Corps of Engineers has made an intensive study of the peculiarities of earth as an eye toward taking advantage of every break nature offers them.
By doing that, they have reached a compromise between two patterns of life; the Everglades of the Seminole and the canoe, and the Everglades of the farmer and the tractor.
The plan to let the water follow its ancient drainage courses will accomplish the first objective of the program. The second objective will be attained by building a gigantic system of flood control works which will hold a certain amount of water in natural reservoirs, during periods of heavy rainfall, to be released in time of drought for the benefit of the urban farm, and wildlife population of the entire region.
Thus the project is designed to combat drought as well as flood.
Previous projects have been concerned only with an excess amount of water and, consequently, contributed to drought conditions.
In times of drought, the muck-land oxidizes—that is, chemically changes to a harmless gas that disappears in the air. It is a burning process. An average of six feet of rich Everglades muck was destroyed that way from 1914 to 1943.
In addition, the dry muck burns in the same manner as forest fires. That was what happened in 1949. Thousands of acres of muck went up
as acrid suffocating smoke and cast a stifling pall over the cities and towns.
During that time canals dried up, Gold Coast cities went on short water rations. Salt sea water invaded the land.
Even more devastating are the frequent floods.
Col. A. G. Matthews, chief engineer of the Florida division of water survey and research, estimated the damage of the flood in the fall of 1947 at $50 million.
After a summer of extremely heavy rainfall, two hurricanes poured additional tons of water on the region. Seven feet of water covered 2,400 square miles of the Everglades alone.
All of south Florida was a vast sheet of water. Roads and bridges were out. Farmland dikes and levees were destroyed. Thousands of cattle starved or drowned. Thousands of farms did not produce in 1947-48.
Urban areas along the Gold Coast still were inundated in midwinter. One-third of Ft. Lauderdale including the business district, was under water for weeks. In all, 20 coastal cities were damaged by high water.
Floridians feel that the Corps of Engineers' plan to dike, levee, dam, and canalize the entire area from Kissimmee to below the Tamiami Trail is the answer.
It has been endorsed by virtually every civic group, newspaper, and public official in the state. The state legislature gave unanimous approval to the program.
The Army engineers estimate that completion of the project will mean an annual addition of about $25 million in agricultural, business and tax returns.
There are many who feel that figure is far too conservative. Matthews, for instance, predicts the project will bring an additional $100 million annual return to farmers.

Students Meet Officers From Homelands
Intriguing accents, colorful uniforms, and hearty laughter characterized the meeting of foreign University students and army officers from their home countries at Ft. Leavenworth Dec. 17.
More than 35 University student guests from 19 countries met 49 fed army officer hosts and their wives from 26 countries at the reception in the Ft. Leavenworth officers club.
Nehemiiah Kronenberg, International club president, was first to notice a touch of home. Spotting an army cap with a Star of David insignia, the third year law student from Palestine, said, "How nice to see the Star."
Many of the groups lapsed into their native tongues as the common love of the homeland was felt. In a short time there was a close companionship between these officers and students.
Col. H. B. Enderton, American army officer in charge of the allied officers section, greeted each of the students as they arrived.
Speaking several languages fluently, Colonel Enderton assists officers from non-English speaking countries in solving problems arising from language difficulties. Many of the officers had never spoken English before coming to this country. Some of their wives do not speak English at all.
Maj. Vincent Cook, wearing a Canadian army uniform, spectacles and a clipped mustache; and Mrs. Cook chatted of hockey and rugby as well as education and the army.
Lieutenant Colonel Seixas of Brazil speaks English with a strong accent. "I speak Portuanol," he laughed. "In my country we speak Portuguese and I also speak Spanish. Most of the time I use a combination of the two languages which I call Portuanol."
"Normally, I am not enthoused over rugby—football, I believe you call it—but there was one game at which I became excited upon hearing," Major Cook said. "My wife and I were driving in downtown Leavenworth the afternoon of the Missouri-Kansas football game. When Missouri bobbled on their own 3-yard line and Kansas recovered the ball, I became so excited I ran into the car ahead of me. I received a nasty glance from the driver of the car ahead."
Major Cook was the resident staff officer of the Canadian officer mining company at McGill university, Canada, before going to Ft. Leavenworth.
The little woman in the green sari gingerly held a burning quarter-inch long cigarette stub between two delicate finger-tips. She looked perplexed as she said, "This cigaret, I don't know where to put it." Noticing the length of the cigaret, she looked up quickly, smiled, "aid said, "I am just a bum."
She was the wife of Liutenant Rahman allied army officer from Pakistan. She has learned English since coming to America in September and is a constant source of
amazement among her friends with her repartee in English. When asked how she liked the U.S., she replied "Exactly."
Colonel Afsharpour, of Iran, formally welcomed the visiting students to Ft. Leavenworth. Later in the afternoon, the Colonel told of Christmas in Iran.
"We are Moslem in my country," he said, "but we observe Christmas for our many Christian friends living in Iran. We exchange greeting cards and observe other ceremonies of your Christmas, but we do not celebrate it ourselves."
"Our celebration which would compare with your Christmas is held for 13 days following the first day of spring. We have an annual feast and vacation at that time just as you do at Christmas time."
Colonel Afsharpur and other foreign officers, were high in their praise of the staff school at Ft. Leavenworth. The allied officers take a comprehensive 10 month course in ground, airborne, and amphibious infantry components.
Following luncheon, the officers and students made a tour of the army post. Points of interest on the tour were the national cemetery, Old Normandy housing district, a new building under construction to house a paper拍户, a paper for "bump-sheets," Canada's for memorandums, will be made), our and Gruber halls, the disciplinary barracks, Sherman air force base, and the post theaters.
The music was international in flavor. It ranged from sambas to polkas and waltzes to jazz.
Two Costa Rican students, Luis Bianchini, University High school senior, and Flora Flores, graduate student, did a jitterbug.
The exotic aroma of a foreign cigaret drifted across the room. Canadian Major Paul Sare sniffed twice and sighed, "Ah a Turkish cigarette. I must find who them."
The amiable major traced me smoke to its origin, a cigarette being enjoyed by Lieutenant Perez of the U.S. Fifth army. Lieutenant Perez later Turkish treat with the major and then obtained a box of the cigarettes from Captain Ergee, a Turkish officer now at Ft. Leavenworth.
"I rarely smoke." Major Sare said firing up the oval cigarette, "but

when I smell Turkish tobacco, I can't hold out. I love it."
Rolf Vollenweider, special student, and Ernest Neidermann, special engineering student, talked with Captain and Mrs. Millioud from their home country, Switzerland.
Virginie Baroudjian, College junior from Syria, was the guest of Lieutenant Colonel and Mrs. de Gastines of France. Colonel de gastines met his wife in Damascus, Miss Baroudjian's birth place. They knew the street in Damascus where Miss Baroudjian was born. Miss Baroudjian will become an American citizen in one and one-half years.
Major Mayalarp, of Thailand, said his guest, Ruth Logan, College freshman, "has such a fresh, youthful appearance." "America is above all my expectation," he added.
The wife of Major Braithwaite, British officer, said she would like to see more of the U.S. She and her husband recently returned from a two-year tour of duty in West Africa. "We have six weeks in which to travel in the U.S. after school is finished here. I should like to see Tennessee, California, and Massachusetts, above all."
Students and officers at the Ft. Leavenworth reception Dec. 17, were:
Flora Flores, Isabel Moya, Rodrigo Solera, Luis Bianchino of Costa Rica; Magdalena Berger of Czechoslovakia; Mary Deane of Ecuador; Helga Kemnitzer of Germany; Loukas Kinkis of Greece; Luis Lemus of Guatemala; Tamika Nonaka and Roy Sue of Hawaii; Younis Dabbagh of Irag; Ariel Rivlin of Israel; Aldo Vigliano of Italy; Henrick Knudsen of Norway; Nehemiah Kronenberg of Palestine; Betty Reif of Panama; Eva Rother of Peru; Justo Bravo of

Union Elections Split Industry And Labor Board
Washington, Dec. 21—(U.P.)The rift between the national labor relations board and its chief enforcement officer widened Tuesday over a new policy on the union shop in the construction industry.
Robert N. Denham, general counsel, added fuel to the long-standing feud by proposing that the board waive union shop elections for construction workers because it is practically impossible to hold them.
He said the workers are being deprived of union security because the character of employment—a constant shifting from job to job—all but rules out elections required by the Taft-Hartley law.
The act outlawed the closed shop requiring employers to hire union members only. But it permits the union shop, under which workers must join the union 30 days after they are approved in an N.L.R. election.
Mr. Denham asked the board to back up his new policy, but let it be known that he will go ahead with it even if the board disapproves. One member acknowledged that the problem must be solved, but he questioned Mr. Denham's authority to handle it on his own. He said the board was "divided" on the counsel's proposal.
But Mr. Denham is in the driver's seat, at least for the moment, since all unfair labor practice complaints that would arise under his ruling would be processed by his office.
Paul M. Herzog, board chairman pointedly cited a supreme court ruling of two weeks ago that warned the board not to overstep its authority. The decision setting aside an NLRB. order said the board cannot, "in the guise of administration," put limitations in the Taft-Hartley act that were not voted by Congress.
Mr. Herzog wondered if the construction industry problem wasn't a matter for congress to decide. But Mr. Denham told reporters he would take his chances with the supreme court.
He said his office will "process in normal fashion" all cases that violate, the unfair labor practices section of the act. But he said it will consider the union ships election requirement met in action until such time as administrative machinery has been established" to hold elections.
established In other words, the issue will be taken out of the "unfair" category for the time being.
Mr. Denham said there apparently is little chance that bargaining machinery can be set up to function in the construction industry because it "differs radically" from others in hiring practices.
College Enrollment Nears Two Million
Cincinnati, Ohio, (U.P.) Total enrollment at the nation's colleges and universities jumped a little more than one per cent during 1949 to 1,994,795. Dr. Raymond Walters, president of the University of Cincinnati and expert on higher education enrollment, reported today.
The 30th annual college-university enrollment survey showed that as of Nov. 1 a total of 1,567,500 full-time, and 427,295 part-time students were studying in the 753 accredited U.S. centers of higher learning. Veteran enrollment during the past year made up 37.8 per cent of the full-time students, a 14 per cent drop from the 1948 figure.
Dr. Walters reported in the educational weekly, school and society that the nation's largest institutions in full-time enrollment were: University of California, 43,426; University of Minnesota, 24,864; University of Florida, 22,858; Columbia university (including Barnard college) with 22,448; New York university, 21,773; University of Wisconsin, 20,730; University of Michigan, 20,841 and Ohio State university 20,730.

Nationalists Send Vote To Britain
Tiapeh, Formosa, Dec. 21—(U.P.) The Chinese Nationalist government said Tuesday that any nation recognizing the Chinese Communists would be helping to wreck the integrity of the United Nations.
The government directed its diplomatic representatives throughout the world to deliver a note to the governments to which they are accredited urging non-recognition of the Communists regime set up in Peiping after the Communists overran most of China.
The note plainly was aimed at the expected British recognition of the Communists. The word circulated here that Great Britain would announce recognition of the Communists Tuesday, Dec. 27.
(Responsible reports from London have indicated that British recognition of the Communists will be announced before Ernest Bevin, foreign secretary, departs late this month for a commonwealth conference in Ceylon.
The note, referring to China's protest against Russian aid to the Chinese Communists in the United Nations, was as follows:
George Yeh, foreign minister, released the text of the note here at the same time it was dispatched to ambassadors, ministers, and other diplomatic envoys to all countries where the Nationalists are represented.
"Any government that chooses to extend recognition to the Communist regime recently set up in Peiping would be judging the case in advance, and would prejudice seriously the position of the interim commission in its efforts to implement the resolution adopted by the general assembly Dec. 8."
Further, it said, any recognition of the Communists violates the principles of the United Nations.
Governor Carlson To Spend Christmas With Daughter
Topeka — (U.P.) — Gov. and Mrs.
Frank Carlson will eat Christmas dinner at the Junction City home of their daughter and son-in-law.
It will be the first time for Mrs Edward Rolfs, the former Eunice Carlson, to fix the Yuletide turkey for her parents.
The 20-year-old victim of the illness, which results in slow paralysis, has spent the past two years in a wheel chair, but has not let the handicap interfere with his education. He has completed 30 semester hours of credit at the University of Kansas City, and will transfer to the University of Kansas when his physical condition permits.
"I am making progress, but it is impossible to say now just when I will be able to attend K. U." Gates said today. "Doctors are now trying to get me in braces so that I can learn to walk."
Recently, boyhood friends of Gates who are Sig Eps decided that he should not be excluded from membership in a fraternity and members of the Kansas Alpha chapter of the fraternity voted unanimously to petition national headquarters for permission to pledge him.
At a special ceremony on Dec. 10 in his home at 6701 Tomahawk road, in Johnson county. Gates was oledged to the fraternity.
"I think it is one of the nicest things that ever happened to me. I realize how unusual it is and I want to thank the fraternity," Gates said.
Members of fraternity who went to Kansas City for the pledging ceremony include Murray Davis, business senior; Laurence B. Silks, journalism senior; Dale S. Helmers, College junior; Hal Tilus, engineering junior; Kent F. Cross, College sophomore; John H. Freeman College freshman; and James D. Perrv, business freshman.
Gates is studying his pledge lessons at home and should be ready for initiation in January or February. Helmers, vice-president of the chapter, said.
Gates became ill three years ago when he was a senior at Shawnee-Mission High school.
"I stumbled a littl at first and then it kept getting worse. Before long I was in a wheel chair," Gates recalled. "I graduated in the wheel chair and started attending English classes at The University of Kansas City, but I have always wanted to go to KU."
His father, Miles Gates, is the owner of the Gates funeral home in Kansas City, Kans., and is an alumnus of K.U. and the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. His mother also attended the University and belonged to Kappa Kappa Gamma.

Mr. Svaglic will speak on "How Much English Should We Teach in Courses in Business Writing?"
Gifts To Be Old Etchings
Washington—(U.P.)—Bess Truman is continuing a practice that probably will bring etchings of the White House into thousands of American homes.
Like other first ladies before her, Mrs. Truman frequently is asked to contribute something to charity benefits or bazaars. Since the Wilson administration only to such a request has been an old etching of the White House.
Mrs. Edith Helm, White House social secretary, said the recipients always seem "quite satisfied."
Mrs. Helm said she found the etchings in the White House "during the Wilson administration" and has used them ever since. They bear the inscription, "greetings from the White House."
In addition to requests for such a donation Mrs. Truman and her daughter, Margaret, receive a considerable bulk of other mail. Some of Mrs. Truman's comes from people who simply wish to state an opinion, Mrs. Helm said. Margaret's appearances as a concert singer have added straight-out fan mail to the White House mailman's normal load.
Mrs. Truman's personal secretary, Miss Reathel Odum, was asked if Margaret received many proposals by mail.
"I don't think I should go into that," she said.
Junior Can Taste With Entire Mouth
Austin, Texas-(ACP)—Do you wonder why Junior crams his mouth full of food and you eat a bite at a time?
The University of Texas' Dr. Kari Dallenbach says that it is because you and Junior have different tasting apparatus.
"Experiments have shown an adult sensitive to taste only on the outer edge of his tongue, while a child tastes with his entire mouth," Dr. Dallenbach explains. "Somewhere between childhood and adulthood a person loses most of his youthful taste ability."
United Nations Atom Prohibition Urged by Romulc
Lake Success, N.Y., Dec. 21—(U.P.)
—Brig. Gen. Carlos P. Romulo,
president of the United Nations general assembly, urged the atomic experts of the big five powers and Canada Tuesday to agree on an "interim" prohibition or control of nuclear weapons before seeking a permanent world control plan.
General Romulo made his suggestion through Gen. A. G. L. McNaughton of Canada when the atomic experts resumed their secret sessions after a lay-off, while the general assembly was debating the possibility of controlling the atom.
"The technical improvement of atomic weapons and the stock-piling of fissionable materials and bombs may soon have proceeded so far that any plan of effective control will become practically impossible of execution. Even if the interested parties were eventually to reach a point of agreement on its desirability it would be difficult." General Romulo said in a letter to General McNaughton.
"I suggest, therefore, that the first priority should be given your discussions to the possibility of reaching some agreement on interim prohibition or control."
General Romulo's letter was released for publication as soon as the group met. They were expected to receive suggestions from Sir Henkel. A senior of the German delegation, who, during the assembly session, proposed a world "moral pressure" covenant to outlaw atomic weapons.

Nichols Has Served KU And Chancellor Since 1921
Most University business clears through the office of Raymond Nichols, who has been executive secretary and assistant to the chancellor since 1929.
The 5 foot 7 inch secretary was born near Larned, Kan. 46 years ago. He was valedictorian of his high school graduating class. In 1922 he entered the University of Kansas and was graduated with a bachelor of arts degree in journalism in 1926. He was editor of the Jayhawker, editor-in-chief of the University Daily Kansan, elected to Owl society, Sachem, Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Delta Chi, and president of the student council. He was honor man in 1927. Mr. Nichols was a member of Sigma Chi, social fraternity.
He received a master's degree in journalism in 1929. For a short time he worked as a reporter and editorial writer for the Kansas City Kansan. He came to the University in July, 1929, as executive secretary to the late Chancellor E. H. Lindley.
As secretary of the budget committee he is responsible to the chancellor for budget supervision. His office handles staff and faculty appointments and approves all requests for University purchases.
RAYMOND NICHOLS
A. S. BENOY
Comparing the student of 20 years ago to the one of today, Mr. Nichols said there is definitely a change in student attitude.
Mr. Nichols is chairman of the convocation and lecture committee, the community lecture course and senate committee of printing and binding. He is a member of the commencement committee, the industrial fellowship committee, the parking committee, University of Kansas Press committee, the senate, and student-faculty committee. He is in charge of the new student induction.
"Hazing seems to have dropped from the picture," he said.
He remarked that student spirit is not demonstrated as it once was.
"I believe the spirit and loyalty is there, but students just don't show it," he commented.
The effort on the part of the University, he said, to provide dormitories for students comes in response to parent demand.
"I've seen the thing grow," he explained. "Parents of children who don't go into fraternities and sororities want their children to have well organized living accommodations
under University supervision. They believe it will be good training for them. They realize that learning to be good citizens comes from other places than class rooms.
"The course, Western Civilization, should contribute some to helping a student learn good citizenship. Good responsive student, government can contribute a lot toward developing good citizens individually and for the campus as a whole," he said.
Mr. Nichols said that he does not expect the K. U. enrollment ever to drop below 6,000. Many veterans still have no used their G. I. Bitt. If a depression would strike, many students will turn to school. There are also more students transferring from junior colleges than in the past times demand more highly trained persons.
Mr. Nicholson is in favor of the U.S. carrying a "big stick." In this stay and age, he said, we must have good national Protection. The United Nations is a step toward a permanent peace but education is needed if we are to achieve the goals of U. N.
