Slip-Ups

Walt Meininger
After a hard weekend relaxing in a lake-side cabin near Kansas City; sleeping 18 hours a day; and rubbing sun tan oil on a very much sun-burned editor the prospect of facing the next two weeks grows worse and worse.
John Randolph Tye, erstwhile editor-in-chief of this rag, was here over the week-end. He's working on the Topeka State Journal and seemed awfully well pleased with himself and his work there. But he didn't say anything to Virginia Wade about the five bucks he owes her.
And Stewart Jones, who is to be our managing editor next fall, was here on his way home from army camp at Leavenworth.

More Placements Made By Appointment Bureau
Five appointments recently made through the University Teachers' Appointment bureau were announced yesterday by its director, H. E. Chandler.
Dorsey Harp, gr., will teach music in the Kanopolis high school; Clifford Anderson, gr., will teach music in Humboldt, Iowa; Frank Denison, B.M.E.'37, will teach music in the high school at Claflin; Allen D. Miller, A.B.'32, will teach social science and mathematics in the Langdon high school; and Floyd Holcomb, M.A.'36, will be principal at the St. George high school.
Hodge To Be Phi Psi Exchange Scholar To Germany This Year
Russell L. Hodge, a member of this year's graduating class of the School of Business, will sail about the middle of August for Germany, where he will study in a German university for the coming year as a Phi Kappa Psi exchange scholar.
The announcement of Hodge's selection was made by Dean Frank T Stockton, of the School of Business yesterday.
The scholarship which he received at Greencastle, Ind., a few days ago at a conference with members of the committee, will entitle him to tuition and living expenses. He will take the place of Bill Kandt, the fraternity's 1938 exchange scholar, who is still in Germany.
Hodge is considered a substantial student, and ranked well in his class, faculty members said, in commenting upon the appointment. Part of his undergraduate work was done at the University of Colorado, at Boulder, before he came to the University of Kansas.
Co-Recreational Splash Parties' Success Calls For Another Tonight
Doctor Allen's class in Community Recreation gave the second co-recreational splash party Thursday evening. Featured on the program were Bobby and Joanne Nash, Geraldine Ulm and Evelyn Herriman. A flutterboard race between men and women was won by Miss Herriman.
Guest Conductor---rate of accidents was considered by officials to be extremely low. Four General Classes
The next splash party will be held tonight, in the University pool from 8 to 9 o'clock, at which time there will be opportunity for general swimming. Another interesting program is being arranged.
Thursday evening, the pool will be open to married couples in the Summer Session for a quiet evening of swimming. The pool will be open from 7:30 to 8:30 for this event.
One hundred fifty had purchased tickets to the banquet of the School of Education by 11 o'clock yesterday and the number was expected to reach 200 by this morning. The banquet will be held at 6:30 o'clock tonight in the Memorial Union building.
Karl Krueger is one of two noted guest conductors for this week's Music Camp activities. Krueger has appeared on the campus several times before with his Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra.
The report was based on the number of accidents per 100,000 miles of vehicle travel in the state. During 1936, all classes of carriers had an accident frequency of 1.35 for each 100,000 miles. In 1937, the frequency slumped to .834 and last year it had fallen to .588.

A. E. Schoepel, chairman of the commission, said that for accident classification purposes motor carriers had been divided into four general classes: passenger carriers, merchandise carriers, petroleum carriers and livestock carriers.
The passenger carriers headed the list in safe operation, he said, showing only nine accidents for approximately 10 and one half million miles of bus travel. Only one of the nine accidents was fatal and the person killed was not a bus passenger.

As it looks now the Wildcats will take the side as league champions to show their strength against the rest of the league.

Music Camp's Last Week Features Vespers
★ Orchestra and Band Concerts Contribute To Final Week of Mid-Western Music Camp
The Mid-Western Music Camp entered its final week of activities by finishing another week-end of musical presentations. The concerts this week-end started Sunday afternoon with the Music Camp orchestra concert Sunday afternoon, and continuing on into the All-Musical Vespers and the Band Concert Sunday evening.
The Vespers featured the Summer Session A Cappella Choir under the direction of Donald M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts. The choir was heard in four numbers, and showed they had received some worthwhile instruction during the summer.
David Lawson and his Camp orchestra of 85 players opened the Vespers with their presentation of Godard's "Adagio Pathetique." Joseph Wilkins, tenor, was heard in a solo, and Meribah Moore, soprano, Irene Peabody, mezzo soprano and Wilkins with the accompaniment of Allie Merle Conger, appeared in a trio.
Four Guest Conductors
The guest conductors for the orchestra and band concerts were John Francis, Marion; James Robinson, Springfield, Mo. High School; George Keenan, Kansas City, Mo.; and Sol Barbakoff Fort Scott High School.
The band continued to draw its usual large attendance, and the way the Campers have been performing it isn't hard to see why. The marimba solo by Robert Jenkins was probably the most popular feature of the program with the audience, and after Jenkins had played "Flight of the Bumble Bee" (Rinsky-Korsakow) he was called back for an encore.
Next Monday's broadcast will conclude Music Camp activities and the Campers will depart for their homes. There will be the usual band and orchestra concerts Sunday, and there will be an all Camp Recital in Hoch Auditorium Thursday evening from 8 to 9 o'clock.
Next Monday Finale
Guest conductors this week are two noted and popular musicians: Karl Krueger, who has appeared on the campus several times with his Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra, and Dr. A. A. Harding, director of bands at the University of Illinois.
The all Camp picnic was held yesterday at the State Lake in Tonganoxie, immediately following the broadcast.
