Government Attracts Senior Barbara Ford, Once A Pre-med
COEDS' CORNER
"I came up here intending to go into pre-med," she recalled. "Then I became interested in Spanish. Later, I happened to take a government course under Professor Sandelius—that did it. Meet a political science major."
A political science major is Barbara Ford, College senior.
Only two decades old, Barbara,
known as "Bobbie" will graduate
in the spring. "I started as a freshman
man going to summer school in 1944
and have gone straight through since then," she explained.
"When I get out, I'd like to be on my own and see a little of the world. Then, I'll return for my masters—at least I hope to," she said.
Bobbie said it was difficult to decide why she likes K.U. so well. "It is partly because I grow attached to any place where I've stayed for a while, but it's mostly because of the people I've met here."
Bobbie remembers enjoying last summer very much. She attended summer school, and in addition helped Hilden Gibson, associate professor of the political science department, now on leave at Harvard university, work on an atomic education project.
"We worked through the auspices of the Kansas department of education," she explained. "The resource units we sent out pertaining to atomic energy are presumably being used in Kansas high schools this year."
Vitally interested in all forms of political science, Bobbie belongs to the International Relations club. She is chairman of the political effectiveness committee of Y.W.C.A., and is helping to plan for the U.N.O. conference which will be held on the campus in February.
Bobbie is a member of the Liberal club, a member of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority, and serves on a Union society committee. She belongs to Pi Sigma Alpha, an honorary political science fraternity. I also paddle around a little in pol-
ities on the campus," she added. Bobby said that most of all she enjoys being a western civilization proctor. "My hobby is sitting over at Fowler shops with the other 'western civ procs' and mulling over the problems of the world."
Band, Orchestra Plan Valentine Party
Members of the University band and orchestra-established music-makers of the campus-will receive information as to the music-making of another species in the animal kingdom Saturday night.
"How Insects Sing" will be the subject of the talk by Dean P. B. Lawson, principal speaker at the band and orchestra Valentine party, which will be held Saturday in the Union building from 6:30 p.m. to midnight.
Dinner will be served to approximately 275 members and 30 guests in the Kansas, French, and English rooms. After the meal, the guests will assemble in the Kansas room for a program.
The party, an annual date affair,
will end with dancing. St. Valentine's day will be the theme of colorful decorations for the occasion.
