Prof. D. L. Patterson Relates Experiences In World War I
A holiday war correspondent. Prof. D. L. Patterson of the history department called himself today, as he told of his experiences in World War I reporting the stalemate on the western front in 1916 and 1917.
"I got credentials as a correspondent from the Pittsburgh Gazette-Times and Chronicle-Telegraph where I had formerly worked, went to France when my classes were over in the spring, and then returned for the fall term," Professor Patterson related.
He covered the entire western front, going into the trenches which stretched from sinside Belgium at the north to the Swiss border, he said, and sent weekly dispatches of feature material to his papers. He spoke of working with such well-known reporters as Floyd Gibbons, Charles Edward Russell, and Junius B. Wood.
Picture of First Old-Style Helmet
Picture of First Old-Style Helmet Professor Patterson claims the distinction of having photographed the first American soldiers to wear the famous old style steel trench helmet. The first U.S. troops to go into the front lines had to be supplied with French helmets while the American
version was being put into production, he explained.
"Correspondents were quartered with command posts in the rear in those days." he said, "and not allowed to go directly into the trenches where the fighting took place."
Sees Yanks March Into Paris
He remembers when Floyd Gibbons broke the regulations to get a closer view of battle and lost an eye from machine gun fire to pay for his brashness.
Professor Patterson worked for seven years on the Pittsburgh (Pa.) Gazette-Times and its evening edition, the Chronicle-Telegraph, and was city editor when he left to take up teaching. He went first to the University of Wisconsin where he both studied and taught, and came to K.U. in 1908.
Mr. Patterson was in Paris when the first contingent of the American army marched through on July 4, 1917. The cheering was tremendous, he said, nearly as great as when small units from the French army were brought to Paris from various points at the front for the Bastille Day celebration just 10 days later.
The Latest Model in Modern Housewives On Display at Home Economics Cottage
"Wow! What a dinner!" you sigh, relaxing contentedly into an easy chair.
"And what a wife," you add gratefully.
You, speaking—about 1952 A.D.—following a delicious meal, prepared efficiently and skillfully, and not, surprisingly enough, by slaving over a hot stove all day.
Heart and Stomach One
"The way to a man's heart," you think, "is definitely through his stomach. That adage isn't just a lot of baloney."
Cottage Was Built 15 Years Ago
The K. U. home economics practice cottage was built new for the home ec department 15 years ago.
It is well-furnished, although there have been no current additions or changes because of the war.
But wait a minute there, Joe Doaks, former K.U. student. She's a great little homemaker all right, but she wasn't born that way.
All home economics majors must spend six weeks of their junior or senior year living in the cottage,
It all started about 1945 in an inconspicuous little cottage down behind Blake hall at K.U. There the home economics majors, future homemakers of the state and country, practiced one of the world's oldest arts, homemaking. Cottert, Wise, Win
Miss Lucy McCormack, home economics instructor, is superintendent of the house, which houses five girls each six weeks.
In the house are the superintendent's quarters, living room, dining room, two bedrooms, one small "guest" room, bathrooms, and kitchen.
where they carry on the normal processes of homemaking. Before going to the house, the future homemakers have had basic courses in foods, nutrition, and home management, and they put to use at the cottage what they have learned in the classroom.
All the little details involved in home living are brought together in the home economics cottage where emphasis is placed upon combination and joint execution of such things as buying, preparing meals, serving, budgeting, housecleaning, and entertaining.
McCormack Is Superintendent
Landscaping the house receives special attention, and plans for planting that will make the house especially suited to a university campus are to be carried out soon.
