The University committee, headed by Dean J. H. Nelson of the Graduate school, will nominate five university students for the honor. Prof. Saoelius said. Those nominations must be made by Nov. 2.

The Rhodes scholars will be announced by Dec. 8. They will leave for England next summer or fall, and remain three years.
Scholars this year will be given an increase in subsistence from 400 to 500 pounds per year. That amounts to a little more than $2,000 annually. Portions of the ocean face, depending on the total amount, will also be paid by the scholarship fund.

Lady Welders Lose Blues At Fowler
Hilya weathers on the chapstle.
If you spent the war welding bombers while the boy friend was overseas and you're homesick for that old smell of searing metal, you'll be glad to hear that Fowler shops now has an ultra-modern resistance spot welding machine for laboratory use.
Any lady welders on the campus?
The six-ton machine, which was unloaded last week in an operation that tied up traffic or Mississippi street for two hours won't be used until next semester. A new course in the use of resistance welding on
aluminum and stainless steel will put the machine to work.
The machine came from the Boeing aircraft plant in Wichita and brings the total of Fowler welding machines to three. The projection electronic time welder and the mechanical time welder, the other two types, are much smaller than the new machine.
In fact, the latest addition is so large that it probably will remain in the hall at the northeast corner of the shops. To move it into the general shop would necessitate enlarging the doors.
U.S. Rejects Lewis Demands For Coal Mines
Washington (UP) — The government today bluntly rejected John L. Lewis' demand for a new round of wage negotiations for soft coordinators.
It suggested instead that Lewis' United Mine Workers (AFL) seek a wage contract with private mine operators so the government can release the bituminous mines which it has technically operated since last May 22.
The government's position was outlined in a letter to Lewis by Capt. N. H. Collison, government coal administrator. He replied to a letter sent by Lewis Monday to Secretary of Interior J. A. Krug.
Lewis demanded a new contract because, he said, the government has violated the present one—which the government quickly denied—and because there has been significant changes in wage policy since it was signed.
The government has been operating the mines since they were seized last May 22 to end a two-months strike. It is running them under terms of a contract which it negotiated with Lewis after the seizure.
Under the existing contract, either Lewis or the government may request a bargaining conference on 10 days notice. If no agreement is reached within 20 days, the contract may be terminated.
Lewis' request for a bargaining conference was made in a letter to Secretary of the Interior J. A. Krug, who acted for Mr. Truman in negotiating last May's agreement and who has been federal custodian of nines since then.
Lewis asked Krug to meet with him Nov. 1. Krug was away on a 15-day inspection tour of the southwest. At Amarillo, Tex., last night, he said he would not return to Washington until the tour is completed "unless the urgencies of Lewis' demands make it necessary."
Lewis said Krug had violated the agreement in these respects:
Krug denied that the government has breached the contract. "The government of the United States of America lives up to its contracts," he said.
1. That he used the weight of the coal loaded into feet cars as basis for computing the union's five cents per ton welfare fund. Lewis contended that he should use the weight at the coal mine tipple.
2. That he had refused to put into effect an arbitration award on pro-rata vacation payments.
