University Sets Up Program For 1948 Summer Session
With furs, woolens, mufflers, and the like barely sufficing to keep out the cold, it may seem a bit odd to be thinking now of the coming summer session. Yet, plans for the session are virtually completed, according to Dean George B. Smith, director of the summer session.
"Courses and programs," Dean Smith said, "are planned to meet the needs of the student, in practically every
"Courses and programs, Dean's needs of the student in practically every academic and professional field. We offer a wide variety of courses both graduates and undergraduates."
Room For All
"We don't expect to have any difficulty taking care of all qualified students who apply for admission," he added. "Living accomodations will be sufficient, we are sure, and the cafeteria, fountain, and restaurants about town will prove adequate to feed them all."
In addition to regular courses there will be numerous workshops and conferences covering many areas. These will include social work, creative writing, physical education, court reporters, and many others. Culture For All
For the pursuers of culture there
will be specialists to discuss various problems, and also lectures and programs. The Fine Arts faculty and the Mid-Western band camp will give recitals, and all the museums will be open.
For those who prefer the more strenuous and somewhat less elevating pursuits, there will be swimming, golf, and dancing. Playgrounds for both children and adults will be provided and we will have outdoor movies and dances.
The summer session activities will open with freshmen orientation June 8 and 9. Programs have not as yet been arranged, and will be June 10, 11, and 12. Classes will begin Monday, June 14, and the session covering eight weeks, will end August 7
Married Veterans Shell Out Over Half Of Allotment Checks For Grocery Bill
The University of Kansas married veterans may eat better than his single brother, but Mr. Married pays for his food when the grocery bill comes due.
The average monthly grocery Mill for the University married veteran is $73.72, the biggest bite from his $90-a-month income.
That information comes from survey made by the market analysis class of W. A. Knoke, instructor in the School of Business. Mr. Knoke's class questioned 10 per cent of the 2,750 K. U. married veterans and the survey was completed before the Christmas recess.
Here's what the survey showed:
Wives who worked made more money than husbands who held part-time jobs. The average monthly wage for husbands was $76.11; for wives, $199.50.
Mr. Knoke said the survey is not a conclusive one but that it gave a fair idea of where the veteran's money goes.
Fifty-five percent of the veterans supplemented their incomes from savings and 44 per cent left their
The average monthly bill for rent was $36.66 including utilities. Clothing averaged $22.47.
The 48.1 percent owning cars spent an average of $25.39 a month to keep them running.
Two-thirds of the veterans said they smoked, 63.2 percent carry regular life insurance and 73.6 per cent have kept their C. I. insurance.
cash and bonds in the bank. Parents were giving financial help to 10.5 percent.
All Those Courses Are A Snap Now With Those Handy Little Recorders
Using the latest system of note taking, students can now enroll in a class and, with the co-operation of friends and the dean, spend the rest of the semester at home in bed.

KBI Organizes Science In Battle Against Crime
At the University of California at Berkeley, students are using wire recording machines to record lectures instead of filling note books with complete and hastily scribbled used
University Daily Kansan
The recorders used at California are placed under the instructor's desk with only a small microphone showing. The recorder permits the lecture to be repaired any number of times then "wiped off" the wire by a new recording.
There'll Be A Brief Pause For—Oops!
Everything was fine until one Sunday morning after the choir had finished a hymn he opened his prayer book and remarked "we'll continue with the singing in just a moment but first here is a word from our sponsor."
Several new records were set in the number of licenses issued in Douglas county in 1947. A total of 13,100 operators licenses, 1,033 chauffers licenses, and 2,156 truck tags were sold. However, the 9,101 automobile tags issued last year fell short of the 10,900 total issued the year Sunflower Ordance works was under construction.
The congregation appeared startled but soon regained composure apparently considering the remark only a part of this era of progress.
Malott Attends Meetings In New York, Boston
Recently a young southwest Missouri minister accepted a part time job at a radio station in a town near his parish and because of personal reasons he used a name other than his own while on the air.
A check of K.U. students did not find any recorders in use at the University. Possible reason is the $149.50 purchase price.
Automobiles with new Kansas license plates now carry two tags instead of one. The new year ended the economy measure which brought the one-plate system to 16 Kansas counties.
Windows of some kind were glazed as early as the third century.
The young minister quit his job with the radio station.
One-Plate System Ends With 1947
The war against crime can never cease, Lou P. Richter, director of the Kansas bureau of investigation, says in a recent article for "Your Government," the bulletin of the Bureau of Government Research.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott has been attending a series of educational conferences in Boston and New York following his trip to the Orange Bowl at Miami. He is expected to return to the University Friday.
The formation of the K.B.I. in 1939 was to equip this state to fight the wave of major crimes spreading into it.
Investigations conducted by the K.B.I. cover all categories of crime. Since it was started in July, 1939 it has handled 1,100 major criminal investigations of which 1,013 have been closed by convictions, by charges not being substantiated, or by defendants being held for trial, the bulletin says.
The organization now consists of 16 special agents, who can arrest anyone for an infraction of a state law, and can serve warrants anywhere in the state.
Officers must be between 24 and 48 years old; never convicted of a felony; physically fit; and have at least five years of law enforcement work or police schooling. Abilities in investigation, ballistics, accounting and law are sought so that every agent can conduct any kind of case

The bureau maintains an identification service, a crime laboratory, and an information and communication service.
The identification service contains over 300,000 fingerprints, 40,000 arrest records, 6,000 photographs, and other criminal records, all available to police.
The success of the agency is due to its over-all authority and to its cooperation with other law enforcement agencies, said the director.
A weekly bulletin to all police agencies on wanted persons and crimes committed is published by the K. B. I. Radio is used in emergencies.
The crime laboratory can handle all ballistic evidence. The advice of
experts is available to local officers. Photographs may be prepared and chemicals classified in this laboratory, Mr.Richter said.
The bureau may be called by local police for aid. The state force does not supersede, only helps the city officers.
Kansas is one of 32 states to have such a force and was the fifth state to organize a bureau.
Texas, California, Louisiana and Oklahoma are the four leading oil producing states of the U.S.
