THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Argentineans Answer Rebuke Hurled by Union
Last week the two opposing factions in the Argentine government made a compromise and formally answered the latest rebuke hurled at them by the Pan-American Union. Upon learning that all members of the union, except Argentina, would meet Feb. 15 in Mexico City to consider war and post-war problems, the government extremists favored withdrawing immediately from the union, and recalling official Argentine representatives from the United States. The other faction opposed any move which would further damage Argentina's relations with other hemisphere countries.
At last, the group decided upon their answer. They replied that Argentina would not withdraw from the union, yet would not participate in any of the union's meetings while non-recognition of Argentine rights exists.
One newspaper commented, "Morally the Pan-American Union has ceased to exist. It discharges no function which is necessary or useful for the continent. It is an entity directed by one power, (the United States) for the benefit of itself."
In view of the controversy aroused by the proposed meeting, many persons have wondered whether such a conference would not do more harm than good. The purpose of the get-together is four-fold. It is designed to strengthen American republics' contributions to the war effort; to study possible measures for improving economic conditions which would raise the hemisphere's standard of living; to implement the inter-American system in support of war and peace objectives; and to reaffirm their leadership in constructive efforts to win a lasting peace.
Last week as many countries began to name their delegates to the conference, Argentina's only consolation came from the American State Department, which declared, "It is one of our deepest regrets that the people of Argentina will not be represented at the February conference."
The whole incident does not seem in keeping with the last and most important purposes of the meeting.
A.S.C. to Vote Tonight On Student Court Appointees
Students appointed to fill vacancies in the student court will be voted upon for approval by the All-Student Council at the regular weekly meeting of the council at 7 p.m. in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building, Persis Snook, president, announced this morning. This will probably be the only business taken up tonight.
The meeting will end in time for the Varsity basketball game, Miss Snook said.
Sixty veterans are enrolled in the University this semester.

Rock Chalk Talk
By JOAN HARRIS
The Psi's invited the Degrees over for lunch recently. While their guests were in the kitchen peeling potatoes, the Psis sniffed their coats. Dinner came off in comparative quietness and the Deegees prepared to leave for class. Not greatly shocked to find their wraps among the missing, the anchorettes simply donned the woolies of their hosts and ascended the Hill in the latest masculine style. (Pebble Beach "a la R. J. Atkinson" was really rare, they tell me)
WALLOP THOSE WILDCATS
When the Betas serenaded the Anchorettes Saturday night, a self-appointed call girl had a tough time awakening Sarah Marks from dreamland—Betas or no Betas. Finally, Marks squinted up at the wretched call girl and asked her what was up (besides herself) to which the frosh said, "It's the Betas singing at us!"
"But it is, I tell you," screeched the frosh "I tell you it's the Betas." Marks rolled over and went to sleep.
"I wouldn't rise if 'twas Gabriel himself," said the dreamer.
WALLOP THOSE WILDCATS
The voices were getting louder and louder—hotter and hotter—one higher; one lower. The atmosphere in the fountain was filled with suspense. Finally the blonde belonging to the highest voice rose, reached into her pocket and tossed a coin on the table. "Here's a nickel, stoop," said the sweet young thing. "Give me a ring sometime when you've grown up."
WALLOF THOSE WILDLIFE
The ski party at the Gamma Phi house was slippery. Mary Tudor Hanna was the first to go down on the polished floor. Standing quietly conversing with Fiji Abie May, Tudor suddenly fell into an uncomfortable horizontal position—spoiling the dignified effect of the social event completely.
WALLOP THOSE WILDCATS
Faculty dinner at the Pi Phi house found Professor Crafton in high spirits. Under his direction, Professors Wheeler, Chubb, and Woodruff were whipped into some sort of a line for the purpose of producing some sort of barber shop harmony—"Sweet (?) Adelaine" being the result. Later, the crafty Crafton persuaded Jody McCryall (the gal who goes with the lil' boy in blue who blows his horn) to be half of a duet (Mr. Crafton himself being the other half). For an encore, the Crafton part of the team sang, "Don't Hit Your Ma Cause it Hurts Her Feelings," and other lovely original compositions.
WALLOP THOSE WILDCATS
"Civilization has made its mark on the natives, who are friendly, little people greeting us with monotone renditions of 'Pistol-Packin' Mama'. Everyone is the proud possessor of one or more articles of discarded army issue. The GL's warmly welcomed us, eagerly contributing time and material to heighten our comfort. As for the WAC's themselves they take minor hardships in stride, and amaze the GL's with their high morale and willingness to work."
Snubs to Service Women
Civilian girls are snubbing the servicewomen, Capt. Mildred McAfee has charged. Although willing hostesses at communities for servicemen, these girls seldom extend their social patriotism to servicewomen, she asserted.
Winifred Stillwell Named WAC Director in Pacific
Writing Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni association, from New Guinea, Major Stillwell said, "Our tent city has one of the most scenic and coolest locations this close to the globe's midriff. Days are hot, but the nights are cool enough to require a wool blanket. WAC's learn to press trousers between blankets and canvas cots, to scrub clothes under cold water in a metal trough, and to live shmootly under rough conditions.
Maj. Winifred Stillwell of the Woman's Army Corps, a graduate of the University in 1934, has recently been appointed Assistant Staff Director for the entire southwest Pacific area.
Stationed "somewhere in New Guinea." Major Stillwell has been overseas since November. She entered the WAC as a member of the first Volunteer Officer Candidate class in the summer of 1942. Her original field assignment was as Assistant Staff Director at Ft. Sam Houston. As Staff Director, she received her majority. Before going overseas, she completed the course of instruction at the Command and General Staff school, Ft. Leavenworth.
The art department procured the prints in portfolio form from a dealer in European books, Miss Whitney stated, and they cannot be replaced, as they are so unusual, she added.
Polish Art On Display
Forty costume prints of Polish costumes by the artist, Stryienska, are on exhibit this week in the basement of Spooner-Thayer museum, Miss Marjorie Whitney, associate professor of design, has announced.
Graduate To Teach Spanish at Wooster
Miss Anita L. Martin, a graduate of the University in 1927, will teach Spanish at Wooster college, Wooster, Ohio, at the beginning of the second semester, which opened yesterday. Miss Martin was recently given a medical discharge from the WACS after 16 months of service.
The hand-painted prints are designs of the native costumes of the districts of Poland, and show the colorful and unusual details of the costumes.
While at the University, Miss Martin was a member of the Y. W. C. A. cabinet, of Pen and Scroll, and of Alpha Xi Delta social sorority. She did graduate work in Spanish at the University of Wisconsin.
Women Will Broadcast Dumbarton Oaks Discussion
Mrs. H. L. Reedy, state president of the League of Women Voters, and Mrs. Allan Crafton, state chairman of the foreign policy committee of the league, will discuss the Dumbarton Oaks proposal tonight at 9:45 over KFKU.
Mis Martin taught in Kansas and Wisconsin high schools before enlisting in the WACS. While in the service she taught the WACS in Wisconsin.
The program is being given at the request of the state department of the federal government to acquaint the general public with the terms of the Dumbarton Oaks proposal.
