Appeals must be made within ten days after receipt of final classification. Final classification is made after the board receives college qualification test scores or scholastic standing reports.
Men Should Tell Boards Of Test
Men who plan to take the college qualification test should notify their local boards, Registrar James K. Hitt said today.
"Even if your local board does not
plan to grant occupational deferment to students, the boards are required to wait until they receive your test score or scholastic standing before ordering you to report or induction," he said.
Local selective service boards are required by regulation to postpone the induction of students until receipt of evidence of their scholastic standing or their score on the selective service qualification test.
"We are encouraged by selective service to advise students who qualify for deferment by reason of being in the upper part of their class or making a grade of 70 or better on the test, whose boards refuse to grant occupational deferment, to file an appeal immediately." Mr. Hitt said.
"It is felt the appeal procedure will level out some of the apparent consistencies among boards," he said.
This appeal is made by appearing on person at the board or writing a letter to the board stating your intention of appealing your classification. The board is required to send appeals to the state selective service appeal board.
Reports of scholastic standing will sent by the University to the local boards of students who have filled out cards in the registrar's covering the location and number of their board.
Postponement of induction will probably not extend beyond Wednesday, Aug. 20. The deadline for applying to take the college qualification test is Friday.
A 30-day postponement provision beyond the end of the year to give radiating seniors time to enlist or get a job in an essential industry is till in effect. To get such a postponement men must make a request to their local board.

This Is Last UDK For Spring Term
Today's University Daily Kansan is the last issue of the spring semester. The Kansan will be published semi-weekly during summer session.
'That's Where My Money Goes'
The Market Analysis class, under the direction of R. H. Buskirk, economics instructor, recently conducted a survey to analyze student expenditures.
Don't let anyone kid you. Going to school is an expensive prop-$ position. The average unmarried student at the University spends $1,121.46 each school year.
Sponsored by the University Daily Kansan, it included a readership survey for the Kansan.
The results show that most students spend between $1,000 and $1,300 during a school year, not including money spent for textbooks and fees. The highest expenditure by an unmarried man was $3,500 and the highest by an unmarried woman was $2,500.
The largest single expenditure by the average student is for food. He spends $370.37—a third of total expenses—during a school year on house bills, in grocery stores and restaurants.
The second largest expenditure is recreation, including smokes, beer and liquor, movies and miscellaneous recreations.
The results show that men students at the University spend more money in their junior year for liquor and beer than their freshmen, sophomore and senior school mates. The junior man spends an average of $96.41 during a school year. If the junior happens to be a fraternity man he averages $108.40 for liquor and beer during the school year.
Of course, a lot of a man's beer money goes to his feminine companion. But the women do all right on their visits to the local gin-mills and taverns.
In comparison with junior men, the male freshman is an age; he spends an average of $21.67. When the diploma is in sight, the amount spent on booze drops. The average senior man spends $69.55. That is about the same amount that he spent during his sophomore slump, when he guzzled $68.86.
The big spender among the women is the sophomore. The little snort she takes to help out in the slump costs about $20.54. The real average-raiser is the non-Greek sophomore woman, who spends about $27.02. The freshman sorority women, on the other hand, don't spend a cent. (So they told interviewers.) The average freshman woman spends $2.96 during a school year, enough to buy about 15 bottles of beer.
The women pick up the smoking habit fast. An average freshman woman spends $6.96 on cigarettes, but
Men students spend progressively more each year on cigarettes. Freshman average $25.20 for cigarettes and smoking needs. The senior man spends $39.79. The senior fraternity man is the biggest smoke flend, spending $46.19 during an academic year (About a pack a day).
the next year she spends $26.31. She tapers off in her junior and senior years (as one journalism instructor said, "No wonder they taper off. Men have been feeding cigarettes to the women for years.")
It costs almost twice as much to keep a woman student clothed as it does a man. The average woman at the University spends $221.73 while the average man spends $110.48. The most unfortunate father is the one with a freshman daughter in a sorority. He will spend an average of $449.92. The average sophomore woman spends $300.59.
This is almost three times as much as the sophomore man, who spends $103.76. The senior woman spends $250.67, while the senior man spends $113.51. During the junior year there is less difference between amounts spent on clothing by men and women. The junior woman spends $147.18; the junior man spends $105.05. (It is interesting that the junior man spends all of $4.64 more on clothes than he does on liquor and beer.)
As would be expected, the avera-
rage man spends over twice as much
as the woman on movies. He spends
$31.82, while the woman spends
$12.12. The man spends $286.37 on
amusements, and the woman spends
$147.57.
The men make just as many trips to the drug store as the women. In spite of the story that women spend more on cosmetics and toiletries, they just spend $24.00 a year, compared to a man's $20.57 outlay.
The outstanding expenditures by the average unmarried students, both male and female, are: food, $370.37; recreation, $249.99; housing, $157.79; clothing, $138.63. Other expenditures, including services, transportation, drugs, appliances and furniture, total $204.68. The grand total—$1,121.46.
