Nazi Fear Allies in Jutland
Western Front Push Planned To Finish War
International News Service
The radio waves of Europe vibrated today with persistent reports from both allied and enemy sources that a new big push designed to end the war on the western front with a minimum amount of time is about to begin.
Moanwhile, the United States first and third army troops cleaned out the last centers of Nazi resistance along the Rhine.
Lt. Gen, Courtney Hodge's first army forces struck out from the expanding Remagen bridgehead area east of the river northward toward the Ruhr valley. Lt. Gen, George F. Patton's third army captured the city of Mainz after a siege of 48 hours.
All the facts at hand made it apparent that the 21st army group under command of Sir Bernard Montgomery, British field commander, has completed preparations for a surge across the northern regions of the Rhine.
London told of a growing Soviet threat against southern Germany with increased Russian gains toward the Moravian gap which leads into Austria, while American bombing planes again ranged over the perimeter of Japan to deal new blows to the Pacific enemy, diminishing active strength and potential resources.
Five corners will be given by the Women's Glee club in Topeka next Thursday. The group, under the direction of Irene Peabody, already have a full schedule with performances planned for the All-Musical Vespers, YWCA vespers, and the Music week festival.

In Topeka they will give a program at the Topeka High school morning assembly; during the noon hour they will sing for the Rotary-Father-Daughter luncheon at the Hotel Jayhawker; and in the afternoon will give a performance at Winter General hospital. In the evening the club will give a concert at the Air Base hospital, along with singing at the Base Service club.

A. H. Turney Assists K.C.Social Agencies In Youth Guidance
Represented at the conference Thursday afternoon were the central council of the agency, the Y.M.C.A., the W.Y.C.A., children's bureau, U.S. employment service, and several business concerns.
Dr. Turney is a member of a committee to study standards and costs of such a guidance service which will be mainly for the aid of postwar youth not in service.
The recommendation of Dr. Turney and Miss Elizabeth Wilson, guidance program chairman, that standards and costs are an essential pre-requisite, caused the committee to consider such action immediately.
Although the problems of out-of school youth are not an immediate concern of the University, it has been the policy of the University to supply consultants where needed in the belief that non-collegiate problems and collegiate problems are entwined.
