Total Sell-Out Promises Success For Early New Year's Eve Party
The grand climax of this year's social events will take place tomorrow night in the Union ballroom, when University students will usher out the old year and usher in the new—one day early. Because New Year's eve comes on Sunday night this year, K.U. students will "jump the gun" on the rest of the world, by celebrating on Dec. 30, and will no doubt be sleeping peacefully one the actual eve of the new year when everyone else is celebrating.
According to Jane Atwood, social chairman of the Student Union, and Eugenia Hepworth, president, the party is a complete sell-out and promises to be a gala celebration. Herbert price and his orchestra from Kansas City will play for the formal dance from 9 p.m. until 12 midnight.
The ballroom, which has not been in use since the beginning of the Navy V-12 program, will take on a night club atmosphere and students will be seated at individual tables about the dance floor. All tables are reserved and refreshments and confetti will be furnished to those attending.
Cara J. Black Weds R.W.Taft
Miss Cara Jean Black, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Black of Lawrence, and Robert W. Taft, Jr., son of Dr. and Mrs. R. W. Taft, also of Lawrence, were married in a ceremony performed at 4 o'clock Saturday at Plymouth Congregational church. The Rev. C. Fosberg Hughes affiliated.
Baskets of gladioli and snapdragons in pastel shades, with candelabra, palms and greenery, decorated the church.
The bride, given in marriage by her father, wore a white slipper satin gown, fashioned with a round net yoke, high neckline, net ruffle at the wrist, and fitted bodice; the skirt falling into an aisle-wide train. She carried an orchid shower bouquet on a white prayer book.
Mary Olive Marshall and Mira Jean Slusso, both College seniors, attended Miss Black as bridesmaids. Calvert Winter attended the bridegroom as best man. The ushers were Leo Lemmerman, Jim Black, brother of the bride; Kenneth Hoffman and Fletcher McCord, assistant professor of psychology at the University.
A reception was held following the ceremony at the home of the bride's parents. The couple left for a short wedding trip and will be at home in the Oread apartments some time after the first of the year.
Mrs. Taft will receive her A.B degree from the University in June. She is a member of the Jay James. The bridegroom, also a student in the University, expects to complete work during the coming year for his master's degree in chemistry. He is also teaching in the chemistry department and has been elected to membership in Sigma Xi, honorary scientific fraternity, and is a member of Alpha Chi Sigma, professional chemistry fraternity.

Return of Veterans May Relieve Colleges Of Dearth of Men
An estimated post-war flow of 650 thousand veterans to college campuses for federally-financed studies "represents the chief hope of American colleges and universities for rescue from the present dearth of men students," Dr. Raymond Walters, nationally recognized college statician, reported in his 25th survey for School and Society, education weekly.
Miss Guenther is a freshman in the College. Mr. Stenion is in the submarine service and is stationed at New London, Conn.
Omar W. Clark, assistant administrator of the Veterans' administration, Washington, contributed to the report, declaring the peak load for colleges and universities will probably come a year and a year and a half after Germany's and Japan's defeats.
Approximately 2,400 disabled veterans are currently studying in colleges and universities. There are between 40 and 50 veterans now enrolled at the University. Dr. Leonard Axe is director of the veteran's bureau here.
Slightly more than 60 per cent of the current collegiate population are women, Dr. Walters said.

New Profession for Women Begun By Call for Medical Technologists
Medical Technology, a course for women combining college and professional training, is being emphasized by the University because of an increased demand for medical technologists Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, has announced.
The new profession has gained importance during recent years because of the increased dependence of medical science on technical laboratory work and because women have proved themselves peculiarly capable in the performance of this work. The trend toward making medical services available to more people, both through private and public medicine, has enormously increased the demand for well-trained medical technicians.
Many doctors employ them in their own private laboratories. Large numbers of clinics, operated by small groups of doctors, have laboratories staffed by women technicians. There is a great demand for them in the hospitals of the armed forces. They are a necessity in the laboratories of state boards of health and in public health service laboratories. Many industries now maintain their own medical laboratories which must have well-trained technicians, and many technicians are employed in institutions devoted primarily to medical research.
Demand for Technicians Is Great
For some time the University has had a greater demand for medical technologists than it has been able to fleet, and now both the war and the increased demand for greater health services in the postwar period call upon us to increase the number of medical technicians as much as possible. With this aim in view, the University is emphasizing this curriculum which has a strong appeal to young women who wish to engage in a profession that has both a scientific and humanitarian appeal.
Technicians Major in Postcollege
The five-year course is designed to produce technicians of the highest quality who are capable of performing the most technical work in the most exacting institutions. At the same time it furnished these technicians with a college course which places them in the ranks of widely trained people.
During these years the student takes a regular four-year college course with a major in bacteriology. In the first year she takes English composition, English literature, for-

eign languages, chemistry, and mathematics. In the second year chemistry is continued, and courses in the social sciences and zoology are added. In the third year, the student specializes heavily in bacteriology, and takes supporting courses in chemistry, botany, zoology, and entomology. In the fourth year, there is continued emphasis on bacteriology, and the student elects courses in the social sciences or in other desirable subjects.
On completion of this four-year course, the student is granted the degree of bachelor of arts, the standard and honored degree of liberal arts and sciences.
Stimson Places No Blame Regarding German Attack
During the fifth year the student spends eight hours each day in the University Hospitals' laboratories and engages in technical work under the supervision of doctors and trained technicians. On satisfactory conclusion of the year's work at the University Hospitals, the student receives a certificate in medical technology.

Washington—(INS)—Secretary of War Stimson declared yesterday that it is "too early" to pass judgment on whether any individual or group would be censured for the German breakthrough on the Western front.
Time is now working against the Nazis and the Allied news is now favorable, Stimson said.
