Vets Must File Earnings Form Every 3 Months
"Veterans must fill out employment form 1961, which is a statement of earnings, every three months." Dr. E. R. Elbel, University veteran director, said today.
"Many veterans have the idea that this form need only be filled out once for the entire semester, or school year," he added, "but the regional office has made it clear that these must be filled out every three months for the veterans to continue to be paid."
A new employment form 1963 which covers a four month period, will be out soon so only two of these need to be filled out for the school year.
"Men who have recently moved from Sunflower to Oread or McCook halls are requested to come into the veterans office and inform us of getting checks, there is no way for us to know about it unless they inform us. A bulletin board by the Veteran office door lists the names of men whose checks come to our office."
WAA Makes Awards At Annual Feed

Children's Hour Is Screaming Success—
Sunflower Tots Turn Out 187 Strong For Contest
"Gee whiz," said one veteran. "And they say the birth rate is falling."
It ittled look that way Thursday at Sunflower. K.U. babies, sons, and daughters of veterans, paraded 198 strong in K.U.'s first baby contest.
"Sunflower Village, heck," said one participating father. "This place ought to be called 'Fertile Village.'"
Decked out in sailor suits and pinafores and equipped with dolls and bottles, the toddlers stared curiously at each other. They scampered down hall ways and climbed over chairs. They chorted at the judges.
Changes of costume interrupted the proceedings at regular intervals.
From eight-weeks-old Ann Schmidt, daughter of Felix Schmidt, Fnie Arts freshman, to dignified little Michael, three year old son of William Lyster, college freshman, the tots accepted the queer proceedings of the grown-ups with natural aplomb.
They blinked calmly when the flash bulbs snapped. The judges scrutinized them. They scrutinized the judges. Four aggressive toddlers clambered the piano bench but mothers descended and ended the clashing chords by a flank attack.
Little Mark Brooks, 15-monthsold son of Byron Brooks, special student in engineering, was the only casualty. He got lost in the stampede and ran wailing up and down the corridor.
Tiny Phyllis Ann Coss, year-old daughter of Vernon Coss, law senior, was bored with the whole thing and promptly went to sleep.
Tommy Porter, 18-months-old son of T. W. Porter, graduate student, bounced his rubber rabbit on the floor and made faces at the judges.
Mike Gerber, 15-months-old son of Charles Gerber, senior in Education, led the track meet of toddlers who tried to escape through the door before mothers could catch them.
Clutching their bottles in the competition were 31 infants under six months of age. Fifty-three little
slick chicks and future smooth males plugged for prizes in the age group 6 to 18 months. Seventy-two tots vied for honors in the third age group, 18 months to three years. And the big shots, toddlers from three to five years, numbered 42.
The blond bombshell of the party was LaDonna Fisher who was crowned queen. The daughter of Don Fisher, business sophomore, three-year-old Donna was crowned with her king, two-year-old Michael Clinton, son of Steven Clinton, college junior.
Most Attractive-Janie Marie Edwards, six-months-old, daughter of Richard H. Edwards, College Junior.
Other toddler awards were as follows:
Most Attractive—Mary Roos, two daughter of Charles Roos, Journalism senior.
Most Attractive—Dennis Ferro, 19months-old, son of Henry A. Ferro business senior.
Best Personality—Tommy Porter, 18 months, son of T. W. Porter, graduate student.
Most Attractive—Terry Rice, four, son of David Rice, special in the College.
Healthiest—Karen Raper, 6 months, daughter of M. E. Raper, Engineering sophomore.

9-weeks-old, daughter of Glenn A.
Ford, graduate in Business.

Evans Top Passer In Big Six Backs
Kansas City, Mo., (UP)—Ray Evans was leading passer of the Big Six and second place scorer, running next to Joe Golding of Oklahoma in scoring, it was announced today.
Otto Schnellbacher caught 16 passes for 342 yards to lead the pass receivers, with Dean Laun of Iowa State and Ken Bounds of Missouri following him.
Evans scored 42 points to place behind Golding who had a final figure of 78 points to lead all Big Six scorers. Bud French was tied with Loyd Brinkman and Howard Bonnett of Missouri with 30 points.
Golding was the leading ball carrier, lugging the ball 122 times for a net gain of 890 yards. Evans was second and Brinkman was third.

Crowd Cheers Movies Of K.U.-M.U. Game
One of the largest crowds ever to pack Fraser theater yelled and cheered at the title-winning play of the K. U. gridders during two showings of the Kansas-Missouri football game pictures Thursday.
Sponsored by the Daily Kansan and the athletic department as a student service, the showings attracted an estimated 1,700 persons who weren't able to attend the game Thanksgiving day at Columbia, Mo.
The excitement of the play brought frequent comments of "attaboy," and when Ray Evans cut loose on his almost unbelievable 54-yard touchdown run to close the second quarter, a spontaneous roar filled the auditorium.
Vic Bradford, assistant football coach, explained the play-by-play action.
'Little Man's' Back—And You Can Get Him
The biggest "Little Man" hits the campus next week—a book of cartoons by Dick Bibler, the Daily Kansan's artist and clever cartoonist.
Featureting Christmas drawings (with coed Santa Clauses), the book will go on sale Tuesday at tables in the lobby of Frank Strong hall, in the Memorial Union, and in front of Watson library.
This is the second collection of Bibler cartoons the Daily Kansan has published. The first, which appeared last Spring, was a sell-out in two days.
Lewis Posts Bond Awaiting Appeal; Strike Holds
Washington. (UP)—The United Mine Workers and John L. Lewis today posted bond of 3½ million dollars and $10,000 to cover their contempt fines pending outcome of appeals.
No Dimout Here
The union put up $3 1/2 million dollars in government securities. Mr. Lewis deposited $10,000 in cash with
the court of District Judge T. Alan Goldsborough, who imposed the fines.
The Civilian Production administration on Monday will issue an order extending the dimout to all areas of the nation where coal is used by public utilities, but Lawrence will not be affected. Neither the electric power nor the gas company uses coal for its plants.
A freight embargo and parcel post restrictions went into effect today and the government prepared drastic new coal conservation measures. The nation used up one-fourth of its emergency coal stocks in the first 12 days of the coal strike, the solid fuels administration announced. At the present slowed rate of consumption, there is enough coal to last for 55 days, the agency said.
Sen. Homer Capechart, R. Ind., said today he had been "reliably informed" that the government had rejected an offer by Mr. Lewis to negotiate for a possible end to the coal strike.
Industry started new cutbacks over a wide-front as hopes dimmed for early settlement of the 16-day national coal dispute.
with fuel supplies short and rail shipments banned, employers laid off thousands. Even larger curtailments were expected within the next 48 hours and probably will push the number idle in the nation well past the million mark.
Sauer Places Seventh In Coach Of Year Poll
George Sauer, Jayhawker grid coach, took seventh place in a "Coach of the Year" poll conducted by the New York World-Telegram and Scripps-Howard Newspapers.
First in the balloting was Earl "Red" Blaik, guiding hand of Army's great team. Second to Blaik was Earl LBrucherie of U.C.L.A., and third was John Barnhill of Arkansas.
Sauer, who polled nine votes from 397 participating coaches, was named because of his feat in rebuilding the Jav Hawkers' into a championship sound after the Tula defeat.
