Final ratification was withheld until today. Six members of the University of Oklahoma chapter performed the ceremonies for the colony, which is the 37 active chapter. Other members are James R.

Seon Evans, M. M. Rivard, Walter J. Bublitz, Robert Jones, Thomas Morgan, Clarence Hucke, Harold Hucke, and George Hucke were instrumental in establishing the alumni chapter and also attended the initiation banquet. Henry a nd Thomas MacLaughlin were initiated into the alumni chapter. L. C. Woodruff, dean of men, guest at the banquet, welcomed Phi Kappa Sigma to the University. He warned that "In order to keep up with the high standards set by the fraternal organizations already on the campus, you will have to be on your toes. However, after watching the growth of the local organization, I believe that Phi Kappa Sigma is in good hands at our University."

Jan. 15, when Walter Reusch, West Central area YMCA secretary, will speak on the formation of a Hi-Y club at the High school. YM Promises ASC Backing Plans for the "A" basketball game between the University of Kansas City, Mo., YMCA teams was discussed. It was decided to hold the game in the Kansas City, Mo., YMCA at 7:30 p. m. Jan. 16. Bob Thayer, student council representative from the YMCA, reported to the cabinet Monday on the proposal for the Council to join the recently established National Student association. Thayer proposed the inclusion of the University and the ASC in the NSA because of the national strength of the organization. The executive committee agreed to back the proposal. Americans Are Approachable, Boisterous Says Student From Serious Holland American college professors have their good qualities, Jac Stalpers, exchange student from Holland, thinks. "They are so approachable," he said. "I would never say hello to a professor whom I met on the street in Holland. If I did I would get a zero on my next test. tests in my country are serious occasions," he continued. "We wear a black coat and high collar to them.$\textcircled{4}$ And no one ever wears loud socks glad to see Americans or sport shirts to school, either. America is a young nation," he said. "There is much that I like about it and some that I don't. I do not like your radio programs. You do not have as much tradition as we, and are more boisterous. Here I feel like an old man with a beard. In Europe when a plan is proposed, we begin to weigh its merits, in America you jump in and try to make it work. The life of men here is much similar to those in Europe, but a girl's life is very different. I am American schools emphasize physical education much more than ours do. We take the regular course, then if the student wants to learn a sport, he has a separate class. When I first came to America, I felt that every American was a football player. glad to see American girls so efficient in the kitchen, I am going to write home tonight about that American invention, the pressure cooker. In Germany they say a woman's place is only in the church, the kitchen and with the children. I like the American system better. Married Veterans Spend $116.50, Don't Stick To Budget, Read Kansan I don't know yet what I'll do when I finish here. I'll go back to Holland, possibly to teach. Until then, I anticipate a very pleasant and profitable time at your university." Dummore, Pa.—(UE)—Albert P. Morrell, undertaker and a battle veteran himself, has offered to handle free of charge the burial of Dummore's World War II soldier dead returned from overseas graves. "It's the least I could do for my fellow veterans," said Morrell. The average married veteran spends $116.50 for food, clothing, and rent, a recent survey by a marketing analysis class revealed. This total will be boosted if the veteran is one of the 48.1 who own cars. Fifty and nine-tenths per cent of the veterans reported they set up a monthly budget but only 33.5 per cent admitted they lived within that set amount. While 10.5 per cent supplemented their income with aid from their parents, 55.6 per cent were using savings to meet expenses above $90. But Not Forgetten The survey was compiled from data obtained from 10 percent of the married student veterans selected at random. The poll also revealed that 94.3 per cent read the University Daily Kensan and 84 per cent of these read the advertising. Oh—the chances are that one in three doesn't smoke. The veterans were in service about 37 months, and have been married 31.6 months. Students Interpret Emblem Of Moses And The Bush The University of Kansas seal, portraying Moses before the burning bush, was chosen in 1866 by Chancellor R. W. Oliver. The seal, then chosen, was not widely used until 1899 when the University catalogue was issued, with the official seal. The earliest diploma to bear the seal was issued in 1877. No one seems to know why the seal was chosen but many attempts to explain it have been made. According to Oliver Chancellor Oliver said: "It is appropriate to Kansas because as the bush was on fire being consumed, so Kansas was scourged by heat and draught." His statement, however, was not meant to convey the true significance of the seal. In 1912, several faculty members were asked to express their opinions. Two stood out above all others. One professor explained that "The bare feet are a symbol of the spirit of Kansas youths, who, injured to poverty, with dauntless ambition seek their seat of learning even though they must find it with bare feet." University students in 1947 have some definite opinions as to why the seal was chosen. They are as follows Another offered this interpretation: "The burning bush portrays God as he revealed himself to man through the university. The University is its whole and its parts or the subject of all the study and investigation for which the University exists. The kneeling figure shows the scholar as he comes to learn of the reverent attitude proper to the University and of God who pervades it." What Students Think Melba Mather, College sophomore: "The fact that the bush was not consumed by fire may have meant to no matter, what, may, cope, later." Mary Lucile Garton, College junior: "The incident of the burning bush was God revealing himself to Moses. Possibly its use in the seal symbolizes the voice of God to the students." Marjorie Burtscher, College junior; "The continual flame perhaps portrays the fact that education is a continual process, not only during school years but throughout all our lives." Virginia Johnston, fire arts freshman. "It may be that the burning bush symbolizes University, as a student is debokning the students toward higher education." Orange Bowl Pictures To Be Shown Here Betty Jo Bloomer, engineering freshman: "Perhaps the burning bush represents the University as an eternal monument to education." Orange Bowl motion pictures will be shown in Lawrence, but Coach George Sauer, said it would be at least a week before they come from Miami. The pictures were taken by the Orange Bowl committee and the University has contracted for a set of them. They will be shown to the Quarterback club, a group of Lawrence businessmen. Tickets are on sale by the club to the general public. Vets Hail Checks After Holidays The place to show the pictures is not yet settled, said Charles A. Galloway, president of the club. Veterans have had relatively little trouble receiving their subsistence checks upon returning to Lawrence after the holidays, Dr. E. R. Elbel, director of the veterans bureau said today. Veterans will automatically receive their checks through the second semester with no further applications or paper work needed, according to Dr. Elbel. Only those transfering from one school to another will run into any delays. Presidents Arthur, Cleveland and Wilson were sons of ministers.
