GROUP MEDIC---years prep experience at center weighing 230 pounds. Roster Holds 14 Civilians
The insurance will be written chiefly in group form and an individual paying monthly on a policy would have all normal medical bills paid. Under the new bill, a husband and wife would be able to buy a policy which would protect them against many surgical and medical bills. The policy holder has a choice of physicians or surgeons, but if the doctor selected is not a member of the association he would be paid only 75 per cent of the fee which would go to a member. The remainder of the fee would be paid by the insured member. The corporation is to be organized and financed by medical men exclusively
Medical men are to contribute at least $5,000 as a surplus for the organization. The same plan that was followed in the organization of the Blue Cross, which pays hospital bills and is used by the University, is being followed in this project, and the same group of medical men who helped promote the Blue Cross is promoting the new organization.

Looking over the records of the abbreviated 1945 football squad, we see that one-third of the men have had experience at guard or are reporting at guard. Coach Shenk's spring gridders are short on tackles, only three showing up so far, but the greatest shortage is in the backfield. Of the first group to turn out, only three are backs. Of course more will show up, some of the 10 to 15 expected to check out suits today will probably be backfield men, and Shenk said this morning that Charley Moffett, stellar back from last season, will check out Monday.
1945 Team May Tip the Scales
Coach Shenk's list of new players promise us at least two men with plenty of what the Jayhawkers needed last season, heft. Charles Betsher, one of the greenhorns entering this season with no previous experience, lists as his qualification 250 pounds. Also in the heavyweight class is Earl Stanton with three
Fourteen of the present roster are civilians, most of these being 17-year-olds. Kansas is the home state of most of the civilians, although there are quite a few from Kansas City, Mo.

Religious Theme Will Be Subject For Essay Contest
A first prize of $100 and two other prizes of $75 and $50 will be awarded in the annual Hattie Elizabeth Lewis Essay contest for the best essays written by students of the University on the application of the teachings of Jesus to some problem of the present day.
Each contestant must, not later than April 16, hand in at the Chancellor's office a sealed envelope containing the real name of the contestant and a tentative outline of the discussion. Three copies of the essay itself must be handed in at the Chancellor's office by May 14.
Prof, Lulu Gardner this morning expressed the hope that students would not hesitate to enter simply because they were not "students of the Bible."
Students desiring further information on the contest have been advised to confer with Professor Gardner, 303 Fraser.
According to Professor Gardner, the donor gafe the money so that "the student will, in a measure, be compelled to study for himself Jesus' life and teachings. This, in itself, will be a good result, in addition to broadening the field of the student's thought."
