Student Displays Exhibited in Museum
Student displays of design work completed since September are on exhibition in the basement of Spooner Thayer museum.
A series of abstractions on poems such as "Fog" (Carl Sandburg), "Invictus" (William E. Heneley), "The Year's at the Spring" (Browning), and "Death" (William Savage Landor) were done with airbrush technique.
Another exhibit is of cotton prints which will be sent to an outstanding dress company for approval and sale.
The nature and museum display, which is done in pencil, represents beetles, butterflies, and birds drawn from mounted specimens and enlarged sketches of miniature Japanese figures.
These nature sketches are not drawn exactly true to their original form, but their outstanding characteristics and elements of design are emphasized. The drawings of miniature figures are more nearly accurate replicas.

Runless Stockings Promised
Chicago — (INS) — Stockings that won't run, suits that won't wrinkle, pants that won't shine, and woolens that won't shrink will be just a few of the innovations wrought by chemistry in the post-war era, Walter J. Murphy of Washington, D.C., American Chemical Society editor, has predicted.
Speaking before the investment analysts club of Chicago, Murphy forecast revolutionary changes in all fields of industry, he said:
In the field of building, plywood adhesives perfected for the Aviation industry will be available.
"Chemically treated soft and inexpensive woods will be 'transmuted' into hardwood, highly fire resistant, rot and termite resistant, dyed in any color, and may be bent, twisted and compressed."
In the field of commercial aviation, new fuels will mean not only greater cruising speeds, but also bigger planes and more profitable pay loads, he said.
Thousands of items produced from finely powdered metals, surface coatings for furniture, refrigerators, washing machines and other household appliances as hard as the Rock of Gibraltar will come out of the nation's postwar factories, Murphy declared.
In the world of tomorrow a business appointment in London, Paris or Moscow will cause no more inconvenience than an overnight jump in a plane sleeper, Murphy forecast.

Finish Division 1 Of Bridge Meet
Winners of the first round of the annual bridge tournament, sponsored by Student Union Activities, were announced this morning by Barbara Prier, chairman of the tournament. Because the new "match-point" system of scoring and "duplicate plan" of play is being used this year for the first time, all 14 couples who entered in the first round of the tournament Tuesday night will be asked to play again Dec. 12, and scores for the two evenings will be totaled to determine which couples will move into the next round.
Myers and Newcomer Score High
Sara Myers and Ann Newcomer were high point winners of Tuesday night's contest; Jane Eby and Ann Cowan took second place; Margaret Fesler and Barbara Barnjum, third; Sarah and Leeta Nelle Marks, fourth; Eileen Freisen and Barbara Sherrard, and Lila Jean Doughman and Patricia Armel, tied for fifth; Virginia Rader and Keith Bunnell, sixth; and Jeanne Harrie and Ann Stern, seventh.
If enough couples are interested in starting another division of the tournament, and names, are turned in to the Union Activities office this week, or early next week, another group will be started before Christmas, Miss Prier announced.
Following the new bridge plan, hands were organized in advance, and each couple played every board. Miss Prier explained. The official score sheet will be posted on the bulletin board outside the Union Activities office in the sub-basement of the Memorial Union building.
Miss Vesta B. LEAR was tournament director for the first round play Tuesday night. Clarence Engle had charge of the scoring.
The promotion of Maurice E. Shannon, 26, from the grade of sergeant to staff sergeant has been announced by Lt. Col. George Y. Jumper, commander of the 385th bombardment group in England.
Sergeant Shannon, a former KU. student, is a waist gunner on an Eighth Air Force B-17 flying fortress engaged in the bombing offensive against Germany. He received his aerial gunnery wings at Las Vegas Field, Nevada.
Captain R. Wayne Claybaugh, of Oklahoma City, and student with the class of 1944, has been awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and the Air medal.
Claybaugh has been overseas since September, 1943. The Distinguished Flying Cross was given him for a mission in Italy in September when as lead pilot for a Marauder group, he directed a successful bombing attack on a railroad bridge. Despite the heavy flak which lasted through the run damaging his ship and the barrage that caught the plane as it opened the bombbays, Claybaugh brought the formation home safely.
He is a veteran of 60 combat missions.
