Careers And Students Are Nearly Even In Templin
If nothing else does it, the large turnover of residents of independent dormitories and resultant mixtures of people would force the proof of the statement that you meet all kinds of persons from many different backgrounds with a variety of interests at college. Take just one dormitory.
Just as a matter of scientific investigation, a Kansan reporter made a survey of the 36 residents of Templin hall. After marriages, graduation, and just plain "givin' up" took their toll, seven women from the 1949-50 list returned. This left 29 places open for freshmen, transfers, and women from other dorms.
Of the seven freshmen, only four are completely new to college life. Of the others, one is an "old" girl and second semester freshman, one attended summer school, and one is a transfer from a junior college who lost credits and is classified as a second semester freshman.
Sixteen of the women lived in other K.U. dormitories the past year, including a block of 11 from one house alone. This leaves room for six transfers from other colleges.
As for representation of the other classes there are 12 sophomores, 8 juniors, 8 seniors, and 1 special student.
Kansas leads the roster of states, as might be expected, with 21 Jayhawkers. Missouri and Oklahoma are tied with four each and Illinois and New York follow with two apiece. Hawaii and Rhode Island each contributed one woman.
Transfers come from Dodge City Junior college, Ft. Hays State Teachers college, Pembroke of Brown university, University of Illinois, Baker university and Drury college.
As for careers, there is almost an alphabet of choices. Schools represented are the School of Engineering and Architecture, School of Pharmacy, William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information, School of Education, School of Fine Arts, and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
For major subjects, there are almost as many as there are women. There is one woman in each of these fields: architecture, art education, business education, pre-business, commercial art, drawing and painting, engineering, French, history, music education, organ, pre-medicine, primary education, psychology, political science, and undecided.
And, to top it off, two women each represent pharmacy, piano, English, and bacteriology. And there are three apiece for diatetics, journalism, physical education, and pre-nursing.

College Women Inspire Practical Trends Wool Shirt Dresses, Basic Evening Wear
Law wives have a business meeting semi-monthly in the lounge of Green hall. Every other Thursday, between the business sessions, they meet in the various homes of the members for bridge games.
(Special to the Kansan from Mademoiselle)
College women can take the credit for inspiring at least one of this season's important fashion trends. After looking at collegiate sweater sleeves, top designers have come up with down-to-earth shirt dresses, sleeves pushed and staying put, and coats with sleeves pushed up worn over wool sheath dresses with sleeves drawn tight to the wrist.
The dresses come in flannel, in checked wool and knitted wool. They're snug, they're slim, they're comfortable—they look best on the move and they take wearing.
Basic sheaths and contrasting cover-ups—the illusion of two dresses for the price of one—dominate the dress-up department. Halter-topped taffetas bowed at the neck are transformed by a velvet jacket into a semisuit. Sapphire rayel velvet sheaths, open-necked, come with matching jackets. Jacketed, you start out in an informal mood; unjacketed you're set for dancing or any other semiformal occasion.
While the accent is on slimness this year in dresses, the good news
about coats is that no one shape dominates. It may be the enormous tent falling from sloping shoulders or a trim fitted reefer, this year velvet collared and cuffed. A revived favorite is the chesterfield, full length or in the new shorter-than-long length.
And if this is your year for a fur coat, you're in luck. The new straight fur coats look slim—and wonderful, even in furs you might once have thought bulky—sheared raccoon and sheared狐 Fox. And colored furs such as jewel colored sealyed lapin—shockers just a few years back—are now quite as acceptable as conventional grays, blacks and browns.
Presidents' Council To Be Informal
Meetings of the Presidents' council will be more informal this year, remarked Shirley Rice, chairman of the council. The organization, which meets once a month, consists of the presidents or highest-ranking women officers of clubs and activities for women and for both men and women.
"We are going to change the procedure," explained Miss Rice. "The women are rather tired of talking about the same problems and using the same arguments they use in
their various activities and organizations. Instead we want them to get better acquainted and exchange
YWCA Conference Set For October
The Young Women's Christian association of the University will be hostess to the Kansas State College Y.W.C.A. at a Cluster conference, social and discussion meeting. Helen Maduros, president of the University organization, said that the tentative date, subject to agreement by the Kansas State group, was set for Saturday, Oct. 21.
Plans for the Cluster conference were discussed by Y.W.C.A. cabinet members in their meeting Monday and committees were appointed. The cabinet also discussed sending a delegation to the national Y.W. C.A. conference during Christmas vacation.
Arrangements for the tea Sunday honoring Miss Dorothy Rheinhold, the new Y.W.C.A. executive secretary, were considered. Money-raising projects were discussed and the group decided to sell pom-poms and mums at Homecoming, sell Christmas cards, and hold a rum-mage sale.
The cabinet will be guests of the advisory board at a dinner Thursday, Oct. 12, at the home of Mrs. Ralph Collins, 1604 University drive, Lawrence.
Mary Lou Miller, journalism senior, is completing plans for a retreat.
Mortar Board Party
The senior women's honor organization is a service group and the members offer their time and services in any way needed to help activities and officers of the University.
Mortar Board members will entertain their advisers with a dessert party 9 p.m. Thursday at Miller hall for their weekly meeting. The advisers are Mrs. J. H. Nelson, wife of the dean of the Graduate school; Miss Ruth Stoland, secretary in the office of the School of Education; and Mrs. L. C. Woodruff, wife of the dean of men.
"There are so many organizations on the campus that do worthwhile things," said Shirley Rice, president of Mortar Board, "We don't want to compete with them so we try to further their interests in this way."
Members are Marjorie Crane, Patsy Cameron, Margaret Dickinson, Margaret Granger, Diane Johnson, Mrs. Patrick Thiessen (formerly Lorraine Ross), and Carolyn Weigand, College seniors; Marilyn Brown, Maxine Holsinger, Mary Lou Lane, Natalie Logan, and Shirley Rice, education seniors.
