Campus Chest Will Begin Drive Monday
"Don't pass the buck, give it!" is the slogan for the Campus Chest drive that will begin Monday, Feb. 26, and last for approximately two weeks. The goal is $1 a student.
The Campus Chest is the only drive allowed on the campus each year, and the money raised from it is given to six organizations chosen each year on their national and local merit.
This year the Lawrence Community chest and the World Student Service chest will each get 30 percent of the chest funds. Ten per cent each will be given to the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, the Damon Runyon Cancer fund, the American Heart association, and C.A.R.E.
Pat Gardenhire, committee chairman, said that all the money given to the Lawrence Community chest is given back with interest to the Y.W.C.A. and the Y.M.C.A. at the University.
Collectors for the drive will be appointed in each organized house and tables in the Union and Strong hall will be set up to receive contributions. Small collection boxes will be in every building.
Jack Stewart, business senior, is chairman of the committee of solicitors, and Marilyn Seymour, business junior, is in charge of publicity. Miss Margaret Habein, dean of women, and L. C. Woodruff, dean of men, are advisors to the committee.
Troops Issue Stops Age Cut
Washington (U.P.)—The troops for Europe issue threatened today to block quick passage of a law lowering the draft age.
Rep. Harry L. Towe (R-NJ.), a member of the house armed services committee, demanded from top military men a full accounting on the war before the group formally approves a bill setting the draft age at 182%.
The measure providing 26 month's service and a ban on combat duty before the age of 19, now has tentative, informal committee approval. Chairman Carl Vinson (D-Ga), has called for fast action to send it to the house floor.
Senate Democratic leaders, however, said they may call up—ahead of a troops-for-Europe resolution—the senate armed services committee's bill lowering the draft age to 18.
Tea Will Honor Dean Stouffer
Dr. Ellis B. Stouffer, former dean of the university, and Mrs. Stouffer will be honored Sunday at a tea when a portrait of him will be presented to the University.
E. B. STOUFFER
The tea will be from 4 to 6 p.m in the Museum of Art. Mrs. G. Baley Price, chairman of the reception committee, today emphasized that all friends, including students, of the museum, Mrs. G. Baley come Printed invitations have been sent only to the board of regents and contributors to the portrait fund.
More than a hundred associates of Dean Stouffer contributed for the portrait, which will be exhibited Sunday for the first time. The artist is Mrs. Berenice Ackerman Lopes of Lawrence.
The portrait will be hung permanently in the office of the graduate school. Dean Stouffer headed that school from 1922 to 1946. In the latter year he became dean of the university, a newly created position at the University of North Carolina coordination of academic matters during K.U.'s post-war expansion.
Last July, having attained the age of mandatory retirement from administrative duties, Dean Stouffer returned to full time teaching as professor of mathematics. He joined the K.U. mathematics faculty in 1914 and had continued teaching through his deanship.
The tea will be simple, Mrs. Price said. There will be no speeches, presentation or unveiling, Dean and Mrs. Stouffer will be in a small receiving line, and the portrait will be prominently hung.
Dean Stouffer was for 28 years the trusted adviser of Chancellors E. H. Lindley and Deane W. Malott. During those years he was chairman of the university budget committee, which recommends the overall budget to the chancellor.

American Armored Patrols Thrown Back Across The Han
Tokyo—(U.P.)—Chinese Reds hurled an American tank spearhead back across the Han river today in a bristling reply to Gen. Douglas MacArthur's call for a new offensive in Korea.
The armored patrol withdrew to the south bank of the Han, seven miles east of Seoul, under the heaviest and most accurate mortar barrage its commander ever had seen.
The American tank and infantry $ ^{\textcircled{4}} $
The American tank and military patrol which tried to probe across the rain-swollen Han east of Seoul ran into at least 150 rounds of "amazingly accurate" mortar fire, battalion commander Lt. Col. Jerry Allen of Bratlehoro, Vt., reported
Eight miles farther east, heavy Communists mortar fire four miles northeast of Chipyong forced another U.N. tank-infantry patrol to withdraw. The mortar positions were taken under Allied artillery fire.
The Reds also drove off a South
Korean patrol attempting a crossing two miles closer to Seoul. Two other American patrols met a similar reception yesterday.
On the central front, however, U.N. spearheads probed north virtually unopposed on the heels of retreating Communist forces. The Reds pulled out of their pocket in the east-central mountains above Chechon so fast they abandoned their dead and supplies.
The only Communist resistance reported on the central front today
was from an isolated Communist battalion near Hill 675 eight miles north of Chechon. An 8th army communique called the opposition "light."

Other B-29s dropped 140 tons of bombs on the Communist supply center of Hamhung, 82 miles southwest of Tanchon.
