Eyeshades Add Color At Games
Because of a plaster figurine and a need for eyeshades at University football games, the University has one of the most colorful appearing cheering sections in the country.
Last summer Miss Hermina Zipple, director of the Union building, asked Marion Barlow, Union building engineer and concessions director, if he could devise a suitable eyeshade to be sold at this year's games.
Mr. Barlow found that eyeshades previously sold at University games were no longer being printed and that the only other available thing would be green celluloid eyeshades of the type worn by office workers.
About a week later Mr. Barlow was sitting at his desk in the Union building when he noticed a small plaster Jayhawk figurine resting on a pile of papers on his desk.
He cut a piece of cardboard into the shape of the plaster Jayhawk's bill, colored it, and showed it to Miss Zipple. Miss Zipple liked the idea and told him to have some printed for the T.C.U. game.
The members of Hillcrest house recently elected the following officers: Rebecca Garvin, president; Ruby Olson, vice-president and social chairman; Mary Carter, secretary; and Constance Calvert, treasurer.
Several newspapers and sports announcers commented on the colorful effect that these eyeshades gave to the K.U. section, and the eyeshades will probably be standard apparel at the rest of the home games.

Students Wash Dishes, Paint At Nursery School Where Home Economics Sponsors Studies
One department of the University encourages mothers to attend classes with new students. Each of the two-and-a-half and three-year-olds who entered University nursery school, 1100 Missouri, last week knew that mother would be with him until he felt at home, said Miss Ruth McNeill, head of the school.
"And this week," she added with a smile, "some of the children don't want to go home when the morning is over.
"Sessions for the younger group are from 9 to 11:30 a.m. Four-year-olds attend from 1:30 to 4 p.m.
"Perhaps you wonder what young children do for that long." Miss McNeilly said today. "Play time is very important and can tell us a great deal about the development and adjustment of each child."
As she spoke, several four-year-olds were standing in the "house" corner of the large playroom, busily squeezing water out of sponges as they washed dishes for the dolls.
"Everybody washes dishes like this," said one little girl very gravely. "And then we have to rinse them."
The "milkman" came up just then with six small, white wooden bottles.
"Want milk?" he asked.
Receiving no reply, he carefully unloaded the bottles in a neat seat on the floor and went to play with a wooden train. Other children in the room were sitting about a large low table playing picture lotto, and one little girl was busy tucking dolls into their cribs for naps.
In the next room, a small blonde girl painted with red water colors, while a record player held the interest of several other children. Each seemed to be doing exactly what they were not doing. On many of the walls were bold, colorful paintings done by youthful fingers.
The physical health of each child is safeguarded by a medical examination before enrollment. Children with colds or other illnesses do not attend; a registered nurse, Mrs. Lois Smith, is present in the mornings to examine the children and exclude those who are ill.
A story time precedes a brief rest period during each session. Fruit juice and crackers are served about the middle of the morning and afternoon.
School spirit is strong at the nursery school, as is evidenced by the morning students, who shout, "Rock chalk, jay hawk, K.U." as they bounce up and down on the teeter totters. Other outdoor equipment for the children includes wagons,
tricycles, a sandbox, and a jungle gym, which one three-year-old calls "the jingle bells."
Mrs. Luella Foster is director of the school, which is under the department of home economics. Miss Ruth McNeillly is assisted by Mrs. Lyn Richards, Mrs. Vera Burgess, and Mrs. Alita Cooper. As in other years, students in child development courses observe and participate in nursery school activities. Staff members confer with parents, both individually and in groups, in order to understand the developmental pattern of each child and to meet the needs of each.

New ISA Office Opens In Union
The official opening of the new office of the Independent Students' association and the new office hours have been announced by the association's president, Richard Krimminger, College senior.
The office, already called "The Shaft," occupies part of an unused elevator shaft adjacent to the Pine room, in the Union building. Newly decorated in a chocolate brown and light green color scheme, the office boasts such features as a gold desk, a 10-foot mural of a cow head waving its HIS BS Brolic during Orientation week. The office will be open from 9 to 11 each morning and from 2 to 4 each afternoon.
