PHONE 1018 Nu Sig's Have Highest Scholastic Average JEROME WILDGEN Beta Theta chapter of Nu Sigma Nu has maintained the highest scholastic average among the medical fraternities at the University for the past 35 years. For the fall semester, the grade point average for the local chapter was 2.27. Nu Sigma Nu, the oldest national medical fraternity, was founded in 1882 at the University of Michigan by Dr. Will Mayo and five friends with the purpose of promoting character, service, and companionship among medical men. There are 41 chapters and 19,984 members. Beta Theta chapter was established at the University of Kansas, Feb. 6, 1909, through the efforts of Dr. Mervin T. Sudler, former dean of the School of Medicine and now a Lawrence physician. The Nu Sig pin is composed of the letters superimposed with Nu on top: Other chapter members are Larry A. Arnspiger, George Boone, Frank C. Brosius, James P. Calkins, Glenn Dall, Leo R. Hines, Hary L. Hooch, Charles A. Isaac, Neal M. Jenkins, Laurence E. Lamb.

'It Might As Well Be Spring'— The Hit Song Is Obsolete Today --pleasure afoot for spring! Even the lovebirds in one corner of the University greenhouse know it's spring. They're billing and cooing all day long. The crowds around the building entrances are getting just a little bigger every day. Spring has hit the K.U. campus. You may have noticed the forsythia, the little yellow flower growing on a bush, already in bloom a month early this year. And the iliac bushes along Lilac lane and by Bailey chemical laboratories are budding. It won't be long, students are telling each other. But that's not all. Flowers blooming overnight is a K.U. specialty. You will walk across the campus some morning and see blooms in all the garden spaces where the day before there was but dirt. This transformation is accomplished each year by the men from building and grounds, under the direction of James Reiter, landscape foreman. Mr. Reiter isn't certain just when he will be able to plant the flowers this year. His main concern, it seems, is the weather. Two years ago he waited until May 5 to do his planting, a conservative wait, he thought. But May 6 dawned and then came a snow-storm. By dusk, the beds of red geraniums and pink petunias had turned into neat rows of no. 10 canns "borrowed from the ASTP" then quartered in Lindley hall." So this year Mr. Retter intends to try playing it safe again. He isn't as exhalated over the spring weather now as some students seem to be. His comment was "I'm just afraid of this early spring. I'll probably be the last of April or the first of May before I dare put them out." But when he does, students can look forward to seeing *n*+are geraniums and petunias. The betunias in the circles in front of the Chi Omega house are a tradition Mr. Reiter doesn't dare break. "The geraniums are just about ready to bloom now," he added, "but I'll just cut 'em back so they'll bear heavier when I do put 'em out in the triangle in front of the hospital." Mr. Reiter's secret of having full blooming plants when they are put out in April or May lies in his planting dates. He put them into the ground in late August while normally they wouldn't be started until about November. The crab apple trees may have a few blooms this year. "Most of them have been cut back so they can gain more root strength," Mr. Reiter explained, "but next year they ought to be flowered." So, although the flowers may not be here in full strength for a month or so, remember it isn't delirium tremens when you see them. It's just Mr. Réiter and his staff of gardeners.
