The New Look In Marine Life Produces Fish That Use Disguises, Borrow Suits
Some marine animals swim backwards, others "borrow suits of armor," and others cover themed suits with seawear in the never-bending fight for survival.
That's what Edwin G. Galbreth, graduate student who studied marine animals in California last summer, told the Geology club recently in a talk illustrated by colored slides and motion pictures.
The fish that swim backward, he said, look as if they were going forward, and the "suit of armor" borrowed by others is a shell used for protection. The animal that uses seaweed for camouflage is a crab that covers itself until it cannot be recognized, he explained.
"Some fish resort to protective coloration to escape being eaten," Galbreath said. "Probably the most interesting animal is one which digs a burror and lives in it all its life with a crab, a fish, and a few other small animals for company.
"He gets food for himself and his boarders by building a net at the entrance to his burrow and sucking the food into it."
Foxes Lead Cat's Life And They Like It
Newhall, Cal. — (UP) — Life was lonesome for a pet kitten at the U.S. Forestry service station here, so he went out to find some friends and came back with three wild foxes.
Now, District Dispatcher Earl Madrey said, all four of the animals romp around the station and are on the best of terms with him and Ranger Irving Fritzin.
"At first the foxes shied away from us," Madrey said, "but after watching the kitten get fed and petted for a while, they came around.
AWS Amendment May Be Revised Soon
An amendment to the constitution of the Associated Women Students concerning the election date of A.W.S. senate seats is now under consideration.
The amendment states that the election date of A.W.S. senate seats shall be set by the A.W.S. senate. The constitution now states that the election shall be held the second week of April.
Shirley Wellborn, president of the A.W.S. senate, said the reason for the amendment was to make the election date more flexible to conform with the spring and Easter schedule.
Heckling of players and booing of the referees by spectators at basketball games brought about the councils' action
The amendment has been passed by the A.W.S. senate and the A.W.S. house of representatives. Before it can become valid it must be ratified by the organized houses. The houses will vote this week.
A stand against the bad sports-manship shown at recent basketball games was taken by inter-dorm council and Pan-Hellenic council at a combined meeting.
Take Stand Against Bad Sportsmanship
Representatives from the councils will discuss sportsmanship in their respective houses.
Leaving before the "Alma Mater" is sung at the end of the games was also discussed.

Janitor Recalls First KU Cage Team
William F. Yahn, janitor at Spooner-Thayer museum, well remembers the first basketball team at the University—he played on it.
Only 5 feet, 4 3-4 inches tall and weighing 128 pounds, Mr. Yahn played guard on the team that won seven games and lost four.
“I knew that I was pretty small to be playing,” he said, “but I gained 10 pounds during the season.”
"The football players that were with us wore their football pants and jerseys," he remarked. "They had to provide the equipment themselves."
Suits worn by the players then were different from those worn today. A pair of old black trousers cut off at the knee, a pair of women's stockings, a red and blue striped blouse, and a pair of tennis shoes was the uniform worn by Mr. Yahn.
The game has changed also. "We didn't get so jumbled up on the floor," Mr. Yahn observed, "We weren't coached in the same manner. We played strictly a zone defense, and what few plays we had, the players figured out themselves. Dribbling was not done very often, and if there was even any suspicion of bodily contact, a foul was called."
Read the Daily Kansan daily.
The team practiced in the basement of old Snow hall, and played their games in a roller skating rink downtown. Nebraska and William Jewell are the only colleges teams that Mr. Yahn recalls playing. The rest of the games were with Y.M.-C.A. teams in Topeka and Kansas City.

How many operators will we need NEXT YEAR?
This is but one of the many questions telephone men are called upon to answer.
Part of their work has always been to anticipate demands for personnel . . . to determine what additional equipment must be provided, what new construction will be necessary to handle the constantly increasing demands for service.
Careful planning in every phase of telephone work requires the services of many qualified men. For them, this growing business offers the opportunity for active, interesting careers.
There's a future in telephony.
