TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS MONDAY. JANUARY 29, 1945 THE KANSAN COMMENTS Letter to the Editor Dear Editor: The recent plan for student evaluation of teachers seems to be buried in the All Student Council archives. Just when are we going to hear what is going on, and when is the compilation of opinion to begin? Granted that much organization is required, but is there nothing we can do to get this show on the road? The plan, so far as I've heard, is to get the material together and then present it to a faculty committee for its weight judgment! Students will not be permitted to see the report. This seems to be an adolescent way of hogtying information which should be available just as readily to students as to teachers. This proposal should have a two-way value. It should enlist professors, and it should aid the student in selecting the course which will benefit him most. Why not put the results in the open for student consumption? Naturally we want to select courses and instructors from whom we will learn the most. This would be one way to find out before it's too late. The purpose of the whole affair (it says here) is to benefit the student by giving him a better, well-organized curriculum staffed by competent and interesting teachers. We students are just as interested in getting to this goal, as is the administration. Most of us are out of our childhood; we're going to write fair and constructive comments about our teachers, and forget the sour grapes idea. But what is the use of going to all this trouble if we don't get a "look in" on the opinions of others? Let's hit the trail and find just where this is leading. Sincerely. Sincerely, A disgruntled senior Official Bulletin UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Monay, Jan. 29, 1945 Notices que at News Room, Journalism Building, at 10 a.m. on day of publication.

Rock Chalk Talk By CAROL STUART In a recent display of newly received diamond engagement rings, Marge Snyder, Theta, not to be outdone by all the glitter, held out her hand on the third finger of which rested a turquoise ring. "See," said Marge, "I'm engaged to an Indian." - * * Even though Don Jackthon, Army medic, doesn't even faintly rethemble a tooth pathe ad with that one tooth mithing in front, he ieth pretty cute when he lithpth, "Leth go to the thow," to Mary Ann Gray. *** The Delta Gamma province secretary wasn't very confused during her recent visit to 1001 West Hills, when she called Pebble Beach, "Gravel." (Any relation to Gertie is purely coincidental). Bright remark of the year by Patty Armel, Theta, who is engaged to Jim Waugh, Phi Delt: "Franklin may, Eleanor may, but I don't hate Waugh." \* \* \* - * * Him Conard, Sigma Chi, tore his hair and home from Personnel Management class Thursday, to start a 3,000 word term paper which fun-loving classmates told him was due in a week. His latest resolution is to start attending class to find out what the assignments are. Only eleven more shopping months until Christmas! 章 宋 枣 - * * We think that the most original and expressive nickname we've heard for a long time is the one that Jane Woestemeyer has for Dan Chase . . . "Punkin." Betty Leibbrand, manager of the Book Exchange, is going to take down the sign, which adorns the Exchange, advertising the fact that Mack Ferguson's "Hitch-hiker's Stomp" is for sale at the Exchange, unless students stop asking whether it is a new physical education book. - * * I would like to take this opportunity to tell Sarah Jane Worsley that that was cold cream she brushed her teeth with the other night . . . not toothpaste! Servicemen's Center Closes; Organized Two and a Half Years The Lawrence servicemen's center in the Community building disconnected the juke box, stored the game equipment, and closed its doors at 10 o'clock last night for the last time. Now that only V-12's and army and medics are left at the University, the center's Saturday night parties and Sunday night feeds will be discontinued, Miss Joie Stapleton, of the department of education and director of the servicemen's center, announced today. Except for a five week "no-funds" interval two years ago, the Community Service league has welcomed all men in uniform each weekend since the first division of machinist mate trainees arrived at K. U. in July, 1942. The League was organized by the mayor's committee on recreation when the University's contract with the navy was announced, according to Miss Stapleton. Ball Room Opened for Dancing Baldwin opened for Dancing. As the number of navy men increased and the army's specialized training program was added, the big ball room on the second floor of the Community building was opened for the dancers, an amplifier was purchased and attached to the jukebox when the luxury of a dance band was not possible, and the original center in the basement, became the game room. The center's facilities have increased or decreased with the number of potential guests When the electrician mates unit closed last fall, the juke box was moved back to the game room and the dancers took over the shuffle-board court. The league's center, financed wholly by local funds and operated by local leadership, is an outstanding example of volunteer community organization, Miss Stapleton said. Its work has been one of the projects of a city-wide recreation program which was planned and administered by the Recreation council. The personnel of the city, school, and the University have cooperated in this program. Entire Volunteer Financing Award of the Edna Osborne Whitcomb scholarship for women English majors will be made second semester, Miss Josephine Burnham, chairman of the committee, announced today. Women students interested in applying may consult Miss Burnham Tuesday or Wednesday during the 3:30 p.m. period. The $50 award will be given to one or two English majors, who are interested in writing and are at least partially self-supporting. English Department To Award Scholarship For Second Semester Edna Osborn, wife of the late S. L. Osborne, who was many years professor of English at the University, left the scholarship in her will, along with a fellowship for graduate students in her husband's name. An article, "Town and Gown, Inc," which appeared in a recent issue of Recreation, the monthly periodical of the National Recreation association, pays high tribute to the recreation leadership in Lawrence. It describes the summer playgrounds, the summer art studio, the street dances and evening activities on the Hill, the summer reading program, the Red Cross instruction in swimming, the servicem者的 center, the band concerts, the lighted park balls and other activities which are offered here, Miss Stapleton said. Membership Is City-Wide The Community Service league's membership includes men and women from the city's clubs, churches, civic groups, the University faculty, the student body, and from Haskell Institute. The responsibility for the center's operation and program planning has been assumed by an executive committee, Miss Stapleton continued. Mrs. Frank T. Stockton, executive chairman; A. E. Woestemeyer, Mrs. Deal Six, Mr. and Mrs. George Hedrick, Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Boardman, Mrs. Laurence Woodruff, R. P. Stringham, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Fisher, Mrs. Leslie Haynes, Mrs. Frank E. Jones, R. O. Burgert, Mrs. E. E. Alexander, and Miss Joie Stapleton who has served as director since last July; are the members of this committee. Community Chort Grant Allergene Community Chest Gave Allowance The league was financed by gifts from sponsoring groups and individual donors until December, 1943. The league was then given a monthly allowance by the community chest. Denter facilities similar to those provided by USO in the large troop concentration areas have been provided by the league and excellent financial planning has made possible the accumulation of an unspent balance of allocated funds which the community may use for veterans' services.
