KU Activities Are Statewide For Kansas Schools,Towns
When you were still in high school the work of some students here on the campus directly influenced you.
They were members of the Student Statewide Activities commission, an organization which has been telling about K.U. to all the cities, towns, and communities of Kansas since 1908.
As county chairmen and hometown newspaper correspondents, t he y work with students, educators, alumni, civic clubs, and newspapers. They Display Posters
The Jayhawkers in your high school library and the display posters which gave you your first glimpse of college life at K.U. were the result of their work. They wrote the letter urging you to come to the University.
You have probably attended high school assemblies arranged by the S.S.A.C. and if you were a debater you remember their work as sponsors of that high school activity.
The county chairmen have taken charge of dances and banquets in their home communities. They have worked with alumni in watching for outstanding athletes in the state high schools.
Compete For Cash
Your hometown newspaper probably contained a column about local students at K.U. It was written by a student in competition with others in newspapers all over the state. They were competing for a cash prize offered by the S.S.A.C.for the greatest news service to the University.
Noble Melancamp, College sophomore, who was recently appointed chairman of the organization, said that he hoped to make the Activities commission bigger and better this year.
Twelve persons have been appointed to executive positions on the commission. Melencamp said.
Helen Piller, College sophomore is the county club chairman and Barbara Johnson, College junior, is the home town correspondence chairman.
Members of the executive committee are Nancy Goering, College senior; Phyllis Farrell, College sophomore; Eugene Jones, graduate student; Clifford Clark, College junior Edith Malott, College sophomore. Virginia Daugherty, College sophomore; Marjorie Crosby, fine arts sophomore; Charles Medlock, engineering junior; Eugene Casement, business senior; William Adams, engineering sophomore.
County chairmen will be appointed this week.

PAINT JOBS can be loud! Both in color and in effect. Refer to the new paint job the "walkie-tallie" megaphones will soon be sporting. Richard Wintermorte, head cheerleader said, "We will paint the three units white and letter them with blue-trimmed red K. U.'s"
ASC Committee Gets New Budgets
Four organizations submitted estimates of their 1947-1943 budget needs to the All-Student Council finance committee.
These four were the Y.M.C.A. Y.W.C.A., Associated Student Women and Mortar Board. No action will be taken by the committee until the remaining organizations have submitted estimates and a plan is reached for fair distribution of funds.
The committee distributes funds to organizations on the campus wanting financial aid.

Whitaker Speaks At KEK Smoker
Mr. Whitaker gave the engineers "a perspective of what you are getting into and what to stay away from."
"The engineer's job is building everything from two hoisters to a power plant," Dale Whitaker, division engineer of the Kansas Power and Light company of Topeka, said at the electrical engineers' semi-annual Kappa Eta Kappa smoker recently.
