KU Jewelry Majors To Work In Plants
Candidates for a bachelor's degree in jewelry and silversmithing are now required to spend one semester in full time work with a manufacturing jeweler, D. M. Swarthorst, dean of the School of Fine Arts, said today.
Students majoring in jewelry and silversmithing will spend from three to four months—a semester or summer—in full time work with a manufacturing jeweler. The field work may be done at the student's option between the beginning of the junior year and the time he plans to graduate.
Prof. Carlyle H. Smith, who is in charge of the nation's only baccalaureate degree program in jewelry and silversmithing, said arrangements for the field work had been completed with three firms. Two are in Providence, R.I., and one in Kansas City, Mo. He expects to make agreements soon with firms in Chicago and St. Louis.
K. U. students will work under supervision of the plant manager in each instance. They will be shifted between departments in order to perform all important operations in the plant, Smith said. A "learner's rate" will be paid each student for his work. The rate varies among the plants but is considered adequate for subsistence.
The course of study, now in its second year, currently has 21 students. Jules Reed, Mitchell, Nebr., is the first to undertake the field work. He will spend the spring semester in the plant of Silverman Brothers, in Providence, R.I.
Superstitious Officials Skip King Boreas XIII
St. Paul—(U.P.)-Superstitious St. Paul winter carnival officials named an insurance executive. Norman H. Nelson, to rule over the Jan. 27 to Feb. 5 celebration as King Boreas XIV instead of XIII as dictated by the royal order of succession.
By skipping the traditionally unlucky number, carnival officials hope the annual winter affair will be blessed with appropriate weather. On more than one occasion in the past it either has been thawing or unbearable cold.

KU Has 600 Fewer Veterans
The total University enrollment for the spring semester will be lower than in the fall semester, but indications are that the graduate enrollment will be slightly higher. University officials said today.
The enrollment figure will drop primarily because of a decrease in the number of veterans. Tom Yoe, director of public relations, estimated the drop at between 600 and 700 veterans.
An increase in enrollment is anticipated in the Graduate school, according to Dean J. H. Nelson. Approximately 800 students have enrolled in the Graduate school, with another 100 estimated late enrollees.
Only 125 new students took the placement tests, William Cottle, a counselor of the Guidance bureau said. This number includes all new students, including transfer freshmen and sophomores.
KU Movies Begin Friday
"Children of Paradise," a full length feature movie produced in France, will be the first presentation of the new K.U. film series at 7:30 p.m. Friday in Hoch auditorium, Students, faculty and staff and their families will be admitted. There is no admission charge.
Prof. Allen Crafton, head of the speech and drama department, will give a brief explanation and commentary of the movie.

It was scheduled in answer to numerous requests by individual students, organizations and the All Student Council. Foreign produced films or American classics not normally brought to Lawrence through other channels comprise the series. All foreign films have English subtitles.
The opening night audience will see the new Hoch stage curtain in one of its first public performances. The 13 panels will be formed into a background for Professor Crafton, then shifted to frame the movie screen. The projectors and sound equipment were given final adjustments last week by the firm making the installations, Nichols said.

Truman Rejects Proposal To End H-Bomb Work
Washington, Feb. 2—U(P).—President Truman said today it isn't necessary or advisable for this country to promise it will stop work on the hydrogen bomb if atomic weapons are dependably outlawed because it has been urging international atomic control all along.
In effect, President Truman rejected a proposal by Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg, (R., Mich.), that the president notify the United Nations that this country would suspend work on the superbomb the moment atomic weapons can be "dependably outlawed."
The president told a news conference that the American delegation to the U.N. has been urging international control of atomic weapons almost every week. It has said, in response so, he said, at his direction.
Withoutreplyingdirectly to the Vandenbergproposal,President Truman said hethereforesaw no necessity for notifyingthe U.N.
Senator Vandenberg's proposal has been endorsed by 14 members of the congressional atomic energy committee, including at least five Democrats.
Meanwhile, Tom Conally, D. Texas, chairman of the senate foreign relations committee said he favors an attempt at new negotiations with Russia-through the U.N.-for effective international atomic control
But he called for a "clear expression of willingness" by Russia to embark on such negotiations in "good faith." Senator Conally said this government should take care not to appear to be "running after the Russians" who thus far have blocked the U.S. control plan.
The U. S. decision to build the hydrogen bomb, Senator Conally said, might encourage a shift in Soviet strategy to enhance the chances for world controls.
The president was asked about a statement by Brien McMahon (D. Conn.) chairman of the atomic energy committee, that there should be wider public discussion of the atomic armaments race.
President Truman said the reporters could not look forward to any further information on the subject of the hydrogen bomb other than what he had stated.
The congressional atomic energy committee's overwhelming support of the Vandenberg proposal, shown in a United Press poll of members, reflected the deep congressional concern over the dread potentialities.
