Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity Initiates Union Pacific President
Arthur E. Stoddard, president of the Union Pacific railroad, was initiated as an honorary member into the KU chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity Saturday morning.
Mr. Stoddard will take the place of his son, Robert, who was a member and president of the chapter before his death at Iwo Jima in 1945. Robert Stoddard was graduated from the University in 1943 with a BS degree in business.
A bell in the Memorial Campanile was given by Mr. Stoddard in memory of his son.
Mr. Stoddard was honored at a banquet after the initiation ceremony. Nearly 135 alumni and friends of his son attended the banquet. They went in a group to the Iowa State football game in the afternoon.
Mr. Stoddard began on the Union Pacific railroad as an assistant to a telegraph operator and worked his way up to the presidency in 1949.
Sex Appeal Wanes, Says Eddie Cantor
Hollywood — (U.P.) — Sex appeal. Eddie Cantor said today, is on its wav out.
And that goes for plunging necklines, too.
"Women's bosoms are greatly over-rated," the goggle-eyed comedian added, "television and the movies are going to have to get something else to ballyhoo. Preferably, intelligence and charm."
Eddie, who will be 60 his next birthday, is going strong on both TV and radio. And he's made a long study of the legend that says swelling curves swell the audience.
He says they don't.
"Look at Dagmar," he quipped "You might as well. Everybody else has. Her rating is lower than her neckline. Faye Emerson found out showing doesn't pay. She's covering up now.
"And look at the stir Lilli Palmen created. She startled everybody when she did her TV show in a high neckline. But she was marvelous.
"And why? Because she's got a brain and the wheels go around up here. She has charm. And she has interesting things to say."
Eddie says it all boils down to something Flo Ziegfeld told him years ago.
Eddie thinks the "cheesecake cuties" who're long on bulges and short on brains are dead in TV because modern camera wizardry is almost too good.
"I was asking him why he never carried any of the beauties in his brows." Eddie chuckled. "And he said: 'Eddie, there's more to sex than just a beautiful body, Come break-fast-time you have to talk.'"
"They go right up to the face and photograph the brains now," he said. If there aren't any, that shows up, so. And audiences get awful tired if looking at a dumb beauty who don't do anything but bend over."
Eddie thinks it won't be long now before "heart appeal" replaces "sex appeal."
"You don't have to be beautiful to be attractive," he explained. "I remember the first time I met Elizabeth Bergner. She was a skinny, cousy little nothing. I talked to her for two hours. And when I left I felt I'd been with one of the most beautiful women I'd ever met."

Delta Upsilon Fraternity Is Only Non-Secret Greek House At KU
The party will be given in two sections, 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. and 9 to 10 p.m. Invitations were issued to women who were on the Dean's Honor roll last year.
A Halloween skit will be presented by members of the board.
In protest against practices then current among secret fraternities Delta Upsilon was founded in 1834 at Williams college as an anti-secret organization.
This is one of a series of UDK articles on organized houses.
Delta Upsilon is the only non-secret national social fraternity on the KU campus.
In 1864 DU abandoned the antisecret policy for that of non-secrecy. This policy has continued to the present.
Traditionally strong in the East, the fraternity has expanded until today there are 69 chapters throughout the United States and Canada. Kanza club, a local KU fraternity,
received the charter for the Kansas chapter of Delta Upsilon in 1920. Pi Upsilon, another local organization on the campus, entered the national fraternity in 1930.
The present chapter house at 1025 West Hills parkway was built in 1930. The chapter now numbers 65 men.
Prominent DU alumni include Arthur Vandenberg, Charles Evans Hughes, James Bryant Conant, Charles G. Dawes, Paul Douglas, Alfred P. Sloan and David Lilienthal.

She suggests a few simple rules to replace the "dunk and scrub" method of washing woolens. Following them will insure lasting fit and color, according to Mrs. Carter, and will keep the wool soft and pliable. These are the rules she recommends:
Needn't Have Matted Socks If Simple Washing Plan Is Used
Sock care is by no means a matter of interest solely to women. Men who receive a gift of hand-knit socks will undoubtedly face the problem of washing them, and Winifred S. Carter, who sends out such information for the Proctor and Gamble research laboratories, says there's no need for woolens to shrink or become like pieces of matted wool if properly laundered in soap and water.
1. Wash socks after each wearing.
2. Use only luke-warm water.
3. Squeeze suds gently through
Rub-a-dub-dub is fine of three men in a tub but not for their hand-knit argyles.

socks while they are under water. 4. Rinse socks in water of the same temperature as wash water.
5. Press water out of socks with hands, then roll in a towel to remove excess moisture.
6. Shape socks on towel or place on forms for drying.
Above all, Mrs. Carter says, do not use hot water and harsh soaps or soak waters before washing them. Do not lift them in and out of the water while washing them, or twist them, scrub them on a board, between fingers, or handle them more than necessary. Socks should not be huffed for drying unless on forms and never in direct heat, she adds.
In drying argyles and socks of more than one color Mrs. Carter recommends that paper towelling, wax paper, or a small cloth towel be placed flat inside the sock as it dries. In case colors are not fast this helps to prevent them from running together.
