Little Man On Campus
"He says he has classes from 10 a.m. through 4 p.m. and he always eats at noon."
Not a K.U. Man But—
Proposal May Make Him Honorary Alumnus
He may not be a K,U, man, but a lot of students will be in favor of making Alfred B. Page, member of the Kansas house of representatives an honorary alumnus if his bill for $1,150,000 worth of construction at the University is passed by the legislature.
Representative Page, whose two years of basketball under Kansas coach John Bunn at Stanford university are his only collegiate connection with his home state, recently introduced a bill in the legislature to provide for a state appropriation of $650.000.
The proposal would be made by June 30, 1949. In addition to $500,000 that the K.U. Physical Education corporation would have to raise by a bond issue, it would make possible the construction of a 10,000-seat field house.
Payment of the remaining $43,000 debt on the University stadium should not interfere with the sale of field house bonds according to Mr. Page, who says funds are now available to the K.U. Physical Education corporation to meet stadium costs due in December.
Mr. Page's bill requires that the field house be situated on a campus site to be chosen by the Board of Regents, and planned by the state architect.
The appropriation would be in line with $750,000 granted Kansas State college for a similar structure. Mr Page emphasized that he was not motivated by University officials in seeking legislation primarily designed to give state recognition to the national basketball fame of Kansas.
"The bill for a new field house as proposed by Mr. Page probably will prove to be an actual boost for the memorial drive, rather than divert any donations." Funds for the field house are to be provided by sale of bonds which will be snapped up by alumni as a good investment. In addition it will satisfy those who think that a memorial for World War II should be a field house or a building of similar nature."
Attempts to sell the necessary bonds for a field house will not hamper the drive for the campanile memorial conducted by Kenneth Postlethwaite, who said;

Fashion Editor On Campus Today
Dunking seems to be a lost art among students in the smoke-filled coke haunts of the Hill.
Jumpy, nervous, they stub out cigaret after cigaret and gulp coke after coke in a fruitless attempt to quiet themselves. If they only knew, just dunking doughnuts might solve their dilemma.
"I think most people are just too bashful to dunk", said Don Gordon, waiter at the Union fountain. "For myself, I think it's a good indoor sport".
To dunk or not to dunk doesn't seem to be a question of good manners.
Methods of soaking a sinker are as varied as the light in a nickeldeon. The conformist breaks his in two precise halves, and dips one half gently in his coffee, taking care to
"Anyway, who cares about manners if you like to dunk?" asked Harold Todd, pre-medic. "I started dunging when I was in the army—the doughnuts were terrible."
Kappy Van Dyke, waitress at Brick's, says she doesn't see much dunking there. Men do it more than women, and toast-dunking is more popular than dunking doughnuts, according to Kappy.
hold the doughnut between thumb and forefinger. The individualist, on the other hand, spears the doughnut, drops it in his cup, and lets it float around the rim.
The unpardonable sin of a dunker, according to such experts as Tommy Dorsey and Ozzie Nelson, is permitting a drop to drip 'twixt cup and lip.
When you've avoided this pitfall, you're on your way to the new and brighter dunkers' world. There everyone meets his friend half-way—to the coffee-cup.
So son, don't keep tilting that pinball machine. Relax and dunk!
