300 Attend Band. Orchestra Party
Arthur Partridge, vice president of the band, was toastmaster. Harry M. Sipple of the Christian church, gave the invocation, and greetings were extended by Prof. Russell Wiley. Dean Paul B. Lawson talked on "How Insects Sing."
In a valentine atmosphere of lace and crimson decorations, 300 persons celebrated the annual University band and orchestra dinner party Saturday night at the Union.
The Three Queens, a new cornet feature of the band composed of Jeanne Peck, Dorothy Brenner, and Anna Noe, presented a selection, accompanied by Ellen Spurney.
Frank Stalzer, pianist, played "You Are My Sunshine" and demonstrated treatments of the song as played by Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, Liszt, Debussy, and Gershwin.
"The Hungry Five" was impersonated by Shirley Sloan and Carol Terrill, clarinets, Jeanne Peck, cornet, Marjorie Pamiter, baritone, and Emily Schnabel, tuba, with Mary Zollinger directing.
In conclusion, Prof. Allen Crafton humorously recounted "How Culture Came to Kansas."
K.U. Tool Engineers To Make Field Trip
The K.U. chapter of the American Society of Tool Engineers will attend a meeting of the Kansas City chapter Feb. 5. The group will make a field trip through several manufacturing plants in the city Feb. 7.
All students who are interested in making the field trip may contact Prof. Paul Hausman or Howard Rust in Fowler shops.
A regular monthly meeting will be held at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 13 in Fowler hops. The program will include a speaker and films. Plans will also be made for attending the A.S.T.E. banquet.
"Telling your son what he should study in college is like trying to pick his wife for him," was what Henry Haworth, Sr., used to say to Henry Haworth, Jr., when discussions of a career arose.
K.U.'s Third Haworth Won't Be A Geologist
So now Henry Haworth, Jr., a grandson of the Prof. Erasmus Haworth, who was head of the K.U geology department from 1902 to 1920. is now a freshman in pre-law.
It's the fact that Haworth isn't a geology student that makes him unique in his family, since both his father and his grandfather have been outstanding in geological work.
Thanks to an open-minded father, "Hank." Jr., came to K.U. to study law, and not geology, although he spent last summer in Wyoming working on an oil well and is now taking a course in the geology department. Haworth believes h i s greatest interest lies in legal work, agreeing with his uncle, Paul E. Haworth, class of '22.
Erasmus Haworth, in whose honor Haworth hall was named, also was the organizer of the state geological survey in 1894, in securing federal aid for state mining schools.
Mrs. Earl Swarner, formerly Miss Phyllis Reynolds, who was graduated from the University in 1924, has donated 50 books on drama and theater to the speech and drama department, Allen Crafton, professor in that department, announced today.
At present, Haworth, Sr., class of '15, is an independent consultant geologist in Wichita, doing work in mid-western oil fields.
Graduate Donates Books
Newman Club Mixer
The Newman club will have a mixer from 8:30 to 11:30 p.m. Feb. 14, in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building.
Deadline Extended For Hall Awards
The deadline of application for the two womens scholarships halls. Miller and Watkins, has been extended through Tuesday, Miss Margaret Habein, dean of women, announced today.
Only a few applications have been submitted to the dean's office to fill the three vacancies for the spring semester, she said.
Summer Session To Be Oversized
Plans for a summer session equal to pre-war regular school terms both in enrollment and courses offered were announced today by Dean George B. Smith of the University School of Education and director of the summer session.
Registration and enrollment will be June 19-21. Eight full weeks of classwork will begin June 23 and end August 16. The School of Law will offer two consecutive six-week terms beginning June 17, the day after commencement, and ending September 6.
At least 35 departments will offer complete undergraduate programs. All schools of the university will have full teaching faculties. Graduate courses will be offered in all fields. Professional training in such fields as pre-medicine, pre-nursing, engineering, business, journalism, education and physical education will be given on the same basis as during the regular school year.
Although the current priority system will apply to admission, Dean Smith expects there will be room for all who desire to attend. The university's greatly expanded dormitory and food service facilities and teaching staff will be available during the summer session.
Radioactivity Traced For Medical Use
Application of radio-active tracers for medical detection and treatment will be only one of the uses of elements produced from uranium fission, Dr. David Hume, KU. professor and atomic bomb research chemist, said recently in a speech to the Chemistry club.
"The tracing of radioactivity for medical purposes by the "Gieger counter," an instrument made up of electronic devices, determines how much radioactivity a patient is receiving and where it is taking effect." Dr. Hume said.
Dr. Hume's job with the atom scientists at Oak Ridge, Tenn., was determining how much radioactivity remained in the 30 elements derived from uranium 235.
For example, a radio active element, iodine, can be detected in humans in the thyroid when it is given for an enlargement of the gland. The radio active element is given in small quantities producing a deteriorating effect on the tissue, he added.
Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 27. (UP)—The Kansas City Star management in a statement today said that the International Typographical Union executive council had ordered composing room employees of the Star to return to their jobs through a pressmen's local union picket line.
I.T.U. Orders Printers Back To Star Shop
Landis Asks Abolition Of Compulsory Service
Washington (UP)—Gerald W. Landis, R., Ind., today introduced a resolution urging the United States to work for world-wide abolition of compulsory military service before considering a peacetime draft.
A sharp rise in army recruiting strengthened the belief, meanwhile, that the draft act will be allowed to die when the present extension expires March 31.
Landis said this country may find it necessary to consider compulsory military service to protect its own interests. But first, he said, the United States should work through the United Nations for an international agreement outlawing compulsory military service.
U.A.W. Finishes On Top In Allis-Chalmers Vote
Milwaukee. (UP) — The Unitec Automobile Workers' Union (CIO) which has carried on a 273-day strike against the Allis-Chalmers Manufacturing company, was the apparent victor today in a battle over collective bargaining representation for the firm's 11,000 employees.
The UAW tallied 4,122 votes in a special election called by the Wisconsin employment relations board, while the Independent Worker's union, formed by employees objecting to the UAW's handling of contract negotiations, polled 4,015 votes.
Senate Bill Would Raise Rent Ceilings
Washington (UP)—Four Republican senators were putting finishing touches today on a bill to raise rent ceilings immediately by 15 to 20 per cent and to abolish all controls within the next 15 months.
For 20 Years They Spared That Tree
They arranged a meeting today to iron out two last problems, whether the immediate increase ought to be 15 or 20 per cent and whether controls ought to be abandoned Dec. 31, 1947 or April 30, 1948.
The one blackboard in Frank Strong hall which had not been erased in 20 years has been removed.
'Steel Contract Extension Improves Price Picture'
The Mailman's Doodle At Last Came Down
Washington. (UP)—Government hopes for sustained labor peace soared today to the highest point since the end of the war.
A high administration official said the contract extension from Feb. 15 to May 1 in the steel industry was "just the thing we needed" to encourage high production and help bring prices down.
The blackboard, on which was a chalk drawing made in 1927, was sacrificed in the recent redecorating of the K.U. post office. Made by Grant Mull, who was employed in 1922 as the first mail-carrier for the newly established post office, the drawing was the outline of a
With his pony and cart in which he made deliveries hitched outside, Mr. Mull waited in the post office one day for the mail to come in. He picked up a piece of chalk and began "doodling" on the blackboard
A few minutes later he went out on his route, leaving on the blackboard the picture of a tree, mute
witness to his artistic ability. When Mr. Mull retired several months later, R. C. Abraham, post office manager, kept a watchful eye on the drawing and did not allow it to be erased.
The years went by and the drawing grew dimmer, as mailbags side-swiped it now and then.
At last the decision to remodel the post office. Buildings and a running room were put out partitions, painted, put in fluorescent lights, and the blackboard drawing half to ten.
The drawing is remembered now only by those who noticed it in the past twenty years, and by Mr. Abraham, who took a few time-exposure pictures of it with his camera, just for old times' sake.
Washington. (UP)—Sen. Brien McMahon, of Conneticut said today that Russia apparently is building a secret atomic plant behind the Ural mountains, and he asserted that the United States "may be in mortal danger" of atomic bomb attack unless an international inspection system is set up promptly.
Senator Warns U.S. Of Russian Atom Plan
He told the senate that United Nation's delay in establishing atomic safeguards is fraught with peril because other nations are working "night and day" to solve the riddle of the bomb. They will succeed, McMahon said.
"We stand in no danger from whatever bombs may be in our possession, but we may be in mortal danger from bombs in the possession of others.
McMahon is former chairman of the joint congressional committee on atomic energy and is now the ranking Democratic member. He was author of domestic atomic control legislation.
Hou We You
He made it plain that Russia is the big enigma in atomic matters as in many other problems.
McMahon's idea that Russia is building an atomic plant in Siberia east of the Urals was based in part on Soviet news reports that Peter Kapitza, Russia's chief nuclear scientist, has been banished to Siberia.
"It itse obvious to me," he said, "that a more likely explanation is that Kapitza is now busily at work behind the Urals constructing an atomic fission plant."
Capone Burial To Be Simple
Things Are Tough All Over,
It's True. But Not This Bad
Jerusalem. (UP) — Judge Ralph Windham was kidnapped from his Tel Aviv district court room today by an armed band presumed to be from the Jewish underground in the second abduction of a well known Briton within 18 hours.

Miami Beach, Fla. (UP)—Scarface Al Capone, whose syndicate reputedly took in two million dollars a day during his heyday as czar of the underworld, will be buried in a private and simple funeral service reminiscent of the cloistered last years of his life.
