General Visits R.O.T.C. Unit
Maj. Gen. E. S. Bres, head of the war department reserve officer training program, made an informal visit to the campus Tuesday morning.
"Every year, we are going to need 30,000 new officers who will accept one year's extended duty," the general said in explaining the future of college R.O.T.C. "In addition to this, we are going to take into the army 2,000 professional officers yearly, who will get their commissions and go into the army direct from college.
"R. O. T. C. furnished the main source of officers for World War II." General Bres said. "Today, there are about 56,000 students enrolled in the program in 137 senior colleges over the nation. When the program really gets under way, we hope to have some 200,000 enrollees.
General Bres came to K. U. from Leavenworth, accompanied by Col. Dan Yielding, Col. Robert Thurston, Lt. Col. John Rathton, and Major N. D. Beasley. The visitors made an informal inspection of the Military Science building and paid a call to Chancellor Deane W. Malott.
"Post-graduate duty is not required," General Bres explained. "We are only hoping that these 30,000 officers every year will accept the term of duty."
"K. U. looks fine." General Bres sid.
"I particularly notice the cheerful atmosphere."
The team of officers spoke before classes at the Command and Staff college in Leavenworth Monday before coming to Lawrence.
Antarctic Vacations Are Inexpensive, But Cold
Cambridge, Mass. —(UP)— Prof.
Alexander H. Rice, of Harvard's geographical exploration department,
believes Antartica "would be a pleasant place to spend a vacation."
Summer temperatures in the Antartic, he says, "often rise above freezing," and the vacationist can relax quietly and inexpensively in its "wide open spaces."
The Antartic, Prof. Rice thinks, may even develop into another Klondike.

Poala.—(UP) - George Miller, 50 year-old Negro, today pleaded guilty to the ambush slaying Feb. 3 of Mike Churchill, chief of police at Osawatomie.
welcome.
The plea was entered before District Judge John L. Kirkpatrick who declined to pass sentence.
Kirkpatrick told attorneys he desired additional testimony in the case, presumably from witnesses to the slaying, and scheduled a hearing for March 11.
Churchill, a veteran Osawatomic peace officer, was killed by a blast from a shotgun as he approached Miller's home to arrest him on a charge of wife-beating.
(After Miller's arrest he was brought to Lawrence to protect him from threats to lynch him.)

Marshall Goes To Moscow For Peace Conference
Washington (UP)—Secretary of State George C. Marshall said today as he departed for Moscow that it now appeared "extremely doubtful" whether the Big Four foreign ministers will be able to complete action on a German peace treaty at the conference.

Union Offers No Chorines But Daredevils Get Thrills
But at blithe, Memorial Union fountain, intimate, vacant-hour rendezvous for Mt. Oread's socialities, would-be customers are satisfied to read the humorous remarks penciled on the menus as they try to attract the attention of an over-worked, white-inketed attender.
At the luxurious Copacabana in New York, peasants put their excess currency on the line to peer at one of the shapeliest chorus lines ever assembled.
Donald L. Randolph, part time employee, was cornered recently in one of the back booths and disclosed a startling amount of little-known information for Daily Kansan readers. Don said that he actually used the fountain for a physiognomy laboratory.
iT have most of the regular cuis-
tumstocks of the institution, if
a person comes in and orders a grape coke, it's a sure sign of frustration. I have a complete file of 90 per cent of the grape coke-drinkers on the campus.
"A strawberry limeade comes under a completely different classification. Anyone ordering a strawberry limeade is simply a dare devil seeking a new thrill."
Don looked up and saw that it was time to quit. He pulled off his white jacket and dashed off, cramming a piece of fudge cake into his rear pocket on the way out.
Don stopped and thought for a few seconds. "By the way, did I tell you of my new invention? It's a long, angular straw that will facilitate curb service by proxy. Students may sit in their cars, parked on the Union driveway, and sip drinks served to them from the inside."

Garbage Dive Foils Dog
Cleveland—(UP)–Patrolman Jay Cook has discovered the perfect defense against a vicious dog, but he admits it's rather humiliating. Cook backed up when a dog attacked him. The next thing he knew, he had jack-knife into a rubbish barrel and rested safe from the dog, with only his feet and head showing.
Uncle Sam Might Have Paid For Campanile, But---suggested the campanile and parkway were chosen in September 1945
Ten years ago a campanile and carillon, similar to the one to be built now for the World War II memorial, would have been paid for by the federal government or so thought the late Olin Templin, former dean of the College.
Dean Templin had conceived the idea of a Pioneer memorial in the form of a campanile and carillon to be placed on the same promontory that will be used soon for the World War II campanile to honor the Kansas pioneers.
According to Dean Templein the government should have financed the memorial because of a debt of $50,000 plus interest which it owned the Massachusetts Emigrant Aid company for the destruction of the Free State hotel by officers of the federal government in 1856.
The government failed to consider the claims and a general campaign throughout Kansas was abandoned because of the financial depression of the times.
The motive for the destruction of the hotel was to stop emigration into Kansas because the immigrants were opposed to slavery.
An outdoor swimming tool, field house, outdoor theater, scholarships, athletic facilities, housing units, and other suggestions could not meet a campanile to the World War II
Charles B. Holmes, past president of the Alumni association, introduced the idea of Dean Templin of
Previously Justice Hugo T. Wedell, president of the Memorial association, had sent out a call to students and alumni for suggestions for a memorial and from the 17 projects
Memorial committee and the committee accepted his suggestion and one of Edward Tanner, Kansas City architect, for a parkway, for the memorial.

Policy, Fee Change Effective Next Fall
Because of the increasing number of students in occupational therapy, a change in the training policy and fees at the University of Kansas hospitals will become effective for the 1947 fall semester, Miss Nancie Greenman, chairman of the department, has announced.
It will be possible to carry only 11 hours of didactic work. The four hours of occupational therapy hospital training formerly taken with the didactic work will have to be taken at another time. This training will not necessarily be taken at the University of Kansas hospitals.
Also beginning with the fa semester students will pay the regular resident or non-resident fees for the 11 hours work taken at the hospital, Miss Greenman said.
