Students Must Apply For New Parking Permits
All students wishing to use campus parking zones for the second semester should make re-application as soon as possible.
Twelve of the 90 colleges contacted by the University United Nations committee have sent replies showing interest in the association, the correspondence committee said last week. However none have disclosed plans to attend the conference, to be held here in March.
The program follows: Sonata, Opus 27, No.1 (Beethoven), by Martha Myers, piano; "Gretchen am Spinnrad" (Schubert), by Helen Haslings, voice; "Je dis quen ne me m'épauite" (from "Carmen") (Bizet), by Joan Bennett, voice; Concerto No.4 in D Major, Allegro movement (Mozart), by Charlotte Maxey, violin; "Shepherd thy demeanor vary" (Purcell), by Mildred Garrison, voice; Etude in D Flat (Liszt), by Twila Wagner, piano; "Je suis attacher des rubans" (Old French) and "Pauline's Romance" (from "Pique Dame") (Tschaikowsky), by Pearl Campbell, voice.
This consists of re-signing the application form at the parking committee office on the second floor of Frank Strong hall, paying the 75 cent semester fee, and obtaining a metal tag number to clip over present parking tags. The new clip-on members have just arrived. Faculty members who signed for only one semester must also make reapplication.
Every effort will be made to allow students to park in their present zones unless they wish a change, the parking committee secretary reports. He warned that all parking regulations are in effect and will be enforced during final week.
A meeting of the parking committee is scheduled for 4 p.m. Wednesday.

of Michigan
Dean Keniston returned recently from Buenos Aires where he served as attaché in charge of cultural relations in the United States embassy. During the first world war he worked as a Y. M. C. A. secretary in France and Italy. He also served as a speaker for the Italian propagation ministry during that period. After completing requirements for a doctor of philosophy at Harvard in 1911, he studied in Europe for two years. He has taught languages at Colby college, Harvard, and the University of Chicago.

Third Lecture On Humanities To Be Tonight
Sophomores Pick Leap Year Theme
Dean Keniston has written or edited 10 works about the Latin countries. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the modern Language Association of America, Phi Beta Kappa, and the Hispanic Association of America, a group which studies the affairs and culture of Spain.
Matt Benton and his orchestra have signed a contract to play for the Sophomore Hop Feb. 28. Charles Johnson, varsity dance manager, said today.
21 Students Face Loss Of Trailers
The dance will be held in the Union ballroom and will be called the "Sophomore Leap-Year Hop," Stanley Englund, class president said.
The student book store will give a 15 per cent rebate on all book sales over that period, L. E. Woolley, manager, said today. Students can now collect the rebate on yellow sales receipts issued during the last six months.
The future of a trailer camp at 21st and Louisiana streets, occupied by 21 University of Kansas students and their wives, remained in doubt today.
The board of education took no action Monday on a request by Richard S. Lowe, business senior, for an extension of the July 1 expiration date of his lease.
Lowe leased the camp site six months ago for a one-year period. He sublet the lots to other students. There were four trailers at the Louisiana street location in July, 1947.
The camp is located on land purchased by the Lawrence board of education for a new city school.
subject to 10 city ordinances
The board did pass a resolution
Subject To City Ordinances
the trailer homes would be given notice before the land was needed May Scatter Trailers
No architect has yet been employed on the school construction project, A. E. Woestemeyer, clerk of the board, said today. The tract was purchased through condemnation proceedings in October, 1947. Woestemeyer said students living in
The other possibility is to find a new camp site. The present location is equipped with water and power outlets. Many of the trailer stoves burn pressure gas.
If the lease is not extended beyond July 1, Lowe said two alternatives remain. One is to scatter the trailer houses. The students would be forced to hunt for places to park trailers near houses where utilities are available, and to ioc, or vacant lots in Lawrence. This is not promising. Lowe said, because most available locations are already taken.
asking the city council to take the $372^2$ acre tract into the city limits, at which time the trailer camp would fall under city ordinances.
- The new dividend will bring the total dividends declared for 1947 to $16,117.74. Mr. Woolley said.
The book store makes rebates to students every six months, and receipts for each period are a different color. The yellow receipts are now redeemable and the green receipts issued for the period preceding July 1, 1947, are still usable. The present pink slips being issued by the store will be redeemable after July 1, 1948.
Mr. Woolley emphasized that receipts may be sent in by mail, and any student who leaves the school may cash in his stubs by sending them to the book store. They may be cashed any time within a five year period after they were issued. The present slips are good until January, 1953.
"I doubt very much if dividends are ever higher than 15 per cent," Mr. Woolley said. Operating expenses consume the difference between the mark-up on sales and the rebate.
Housing Need Is Serious
"However there is a serious shortage of suitable quarters for faculty members and graduate students, particularly married ones," she added.
Plenty of housing is available for men students during the spring semester. Mrs. Ruth Nash, housing director said today.
Unmarried women will not have difficulty in finding room, unless they want single rooms.
Wives of the approximately 700 University of Kansas students living at Sunflower village will be offered eight adult education short courses starting the second week in February.
"Sunnyside is full, with a long waiting list, and non-veterans are not eligible for Sunflower village homes," Mrs. Nash said.
Offer Courses For Sunflower Wives
The classes, varying in length from five to 10 meetings, will meet afternoons at Sunflower. The University Extension will provide the instruction. Such classes were requested by wives when a survey was conducted recently by Mrs. Elizabeth Schreiber, University representative at Sunflower.
Classes scheduled for 10 meetings are sewing, drawing and sketching, creative writing, and literature and book reviewing. Interior decoration, international affairs, child care, and marriage and family relations will have five sessions.
'You Mean There's Houses With More Than One, Prof?'
Discussing the benefits of good food, Professor Walter Kolmor-organ said that restaurant owners that gave their customers good food would "drive big cars and have servants at every door."
A meek geography student in the back row inquired, "How many doors?"
