KU To Offer Cancer Clinic
A post-graduate clinic on cancer will be presented in five Kansas cities March 19 to 24 by the University Extension service.
The cities and the dates on which they will be visited are Wichita, Friday; Hays, March 21; Topeka, March 22; Emporia, March 23; Pittsburg, March 24. The program will be identical in each city.
Three cancer specialists will conduct afternoon periods. A dinner meeting will be followed by a question and answer forum.
The teachers will be Dr. Brian Blades, professor of surgery at George Washington university and consultant in thoracic surgery to the army; Dr. Ira T. Nathanson, Harvard university medical school and staff surgeon at the Massachusetts general hospital, and Dr. Grantley W. Taylor, also of Harvard and the Massachusetts general hospital.
In 1947 more than 300 Kansas physicians attended the circuit courses on cancer.
Joint sponsors of the service are the Kansas Medical society, Kansas state board of health, and the University School of Medicine. The Kansas division of the American Cancer society is giving financial assistance.
Shop Adds Lathe For Glass Blowing
The lathe, with all attachments and accessories, is for the glass blowing shop, located in Bailey laboratories. The shop builds special equipment for all departments of the University.
A glass blower's lathe has been added to the department of shop practice, Paul G. Hausman, associate professor of shop practice, said today.
The latte, valued at $2,000, was secured through the federal works administration which donated the equipment for educational purposes
International Club Plans
Smorgasbord Dinner, Dance
The International club Tuesday planned a smorgasbord dinner and a dance. No date was set.
On a recent trip to Kansas City, Mo., the club visited the Kansas City Star, The Nelson Art gallery, and Mexican and Chinese restaurants. They also attended a British movie.
Mutual To Honor KU With Program
The University will be featured on the Mutual network "Campus Salute" program tomorrow. The program will be heard from 11:30 a.m. until noon over station KTOP, Topeka. It will feature the United States Army band and will originate from Washington, D.C.
Tenants Urged To Renew Rents
One hundred-fifty tenants, most of them student veterans, have not renewed rent adjustments which expire April 1, John A. LaMonica, Sunflower housing manager, said today. Failure to do so will cause tenants to pay maximum rent for April.
Tenants whose rental adjustments expire April 1 must renew their adjustments before March 22. Mr. La-Monica emphasized that it must be done before this date if adjusted rents are to be continued for April.
"Apparently there has been some misunderstanding on this question," he said. "This adjustment is to be made by those tenants whose rental adjustments normally would expire April 1."
"It is not to be confused with the rent adjustment which will be made on the basis of the increased subsistence allowance. Information on the date and procedure to be followed on this latter type of adjustment will be announced shortly," he added.
Nation Needs Oil Reserves
Washington, March 18—(UP) —Oilmen said today that at the rate this country is burning up petroleum it had better find some new reserves—quick.
To prevent serious shortages, the pertroleum industry said, nearly two barrels of oil reserves must be found for every barrel taken out of the ground at least through 1950.
To accomplish this, it added, it will have to have about one-sixth of the country's finished steel output for the next 18 months in order to expand drilling, production, transportation, distribution and storage.
These estimates were disclosed in a 100-page survey prepared by the National Petroleum council which represents major segments of the industry. The report was made under the Republican anti-inflation act which permits industry-wide voluntary action to overcome shortages of critical products.
Saturday is the last day for seniors to pay the Jayhawker office for senior pictures. The pictures will be published in the commencement issue of the Jayhawker magazine.
Senior Pictures Are Due Saturday
Orders for senior announcements must be received next week if they are to be delivered in time for commencement. They will be printed by Green Jewelry company in Kansas City, Mo.
Graduates may provide their own photograph and must be 3 by 4 inches, gloss prints.
George Taylor expressed hope Wednesday that some of the future engineers would specialize in chemical market research. He spoke-before the American Institute of Chemical Engineers.
Taylor Discusses Market Research
Mr. Taylor, director of market research for Spencer Chemical company of Pittsburg, Kan., was graduated from the University in 1935.
Poll Shows KU Students For Truman's Program
University students interviewed today agree on the whole with President Truman's proposed plan to stop the spread of communism. The plan was outlined at a joint session of congress Wednesday.
A few disagree on certain points, however. Universal military training appeared to be a doubtful issue for several students, but the Marshall plan and a selective service program ◎ were not opposed.
Students interviewed were questioned on their reaction to the speech, to the three points recommended, and their opinion whether the program would pass congress. Also, they were asked if they thought Mr. Truman was too severe or not severe enough with Russia, and what the outcome with Russia would be.
Johnny Quinton, graduate student, said that the speech reminded him of the speeches in 1940 before Pearl Harbor. He also approved the three-point program and applauded the stand taken by Mr. Truman. He's Building An Army
Philip Taylor, a non-veteran College freshman, called the speech a "smart move because under the cover of peace, he is building an army. He is doing the right thing but a little late." He also approved the three points but felt that the speech could have been much more severe.
Thomas J. Alexander, College senior, and James A. Seelbinder, sophomore, approved in principle but disagreed with parts of President Truman's speech. Alexander was not sure that he favored U.M.T. while Seelbinder stood behind it, explaining that it has worked for many years in Switzerland.
Alexander said, "If he thinks we're going to have a war, it's about time he got around to the draft."
Both men agreed on selective service.
Seeblinder said, "It is a poor policy to prepare for war after war comes, if it comes."
Shirldar. Adent Plan. N
Should Adopt Plan Now
Virginia Hallman, education junior, is in favor of the speech and the program presented. She believes the Marshall plan should be adopted immediately. "If we don't help the people in Europe, Russia will, and if we can help them readjust they will be our allies rather than the allies of Russia," she said.
Marilyn Jamison. College sophomore, agreed with Quinton that "this seems like the beginning of another war. I am sure that Russia will start backing down."
The one student who expressed real optimism was Jack Pringle, College junior, who said, "I do not think that there will be a war with Russia for another 10 years." He was in favor of the program outlined except for U.M.T., which he doesn't think is necessary.
Clarke Thomas, College senior, tossed two questions back at the interviewers, asking, "Does this speech signify that the government has given up all means of getting along peacefully with Russia? Is force the only answer or is it just a bluff?"
'College Daze' Plans Move Ahead
Jesse Stewart, director of the allschool musical, "College Daze," has selected Craig Hampton, fine arts sophomore, to design all scenery and costumes for the show.
Betty Rae Thomas, fine arts junior, will direct dance sequences for men and women in the show. Try-outs for solo parts and for members of the dancing chorus will be held March 23 and 24. Rehearsals will begin immediately after Easter vacation.
