Former Student Honored By Bell For Campanile
Don Pollom, former University athlete who was killed in action as a marine air corps lieutenant in 1944, will be remembered with an inscribed bell in the memorial carillon tower.

Mr. Pololl came to the University in the fall of 1939, where he lettered in football and track. His time in the 200-yard low hurdles set at the Kansas high school relays in 1938 still stands as the national interscolastic record. He had been on combat duty in the Pacific since December, 1943.

M. Bert A. Nash, executive-secretary of the housing committee, has compiled a list of rooms available for the rush.
"We have a list of 34 vacancies housing from 1 to 6 persons, and haven't nearly exhausted our supply," she said.
Both Mrs. Nash and Fred Montgomery, chairman of the homecoming activities, will be able to supply visitors with information on vacant rooms.
The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce also has set up a housing office, supervised by Mrs. Emma McPheeters, George Hedrick, secretary-manager of that organization said. This office will be open during the afternoons and Saturday morning for visitors' use.
