EM's Team Wins Softball League's Opening Game
Although out-hit 8 to 9, the electrician's mate team of the University Naval Training School, bunched their hits in a big fourth iming, to gain an 8 to 3 victory over the Pleasant Grove softball team last night in the season opener of the Lawrence community softball league at South park.
Orton was on the mound for the EM's, while Andrews pitched for the losers. Both teams showed sparkle at field, and must be considered as threats for the league title.
The highlight of the game came when Lee, the short stop of the electrician's team slammed out a home run, which caught in the crest of a tree deep in left field. The third basemen, Chesser, for the EM's, and Reberd for the Pleasant Grove team, stood out afield for their respective teams.

Dyche Will Exhibit New Guinea Weapons
An exhibit of New Guinea native weapons will be featured soon at Dyche museum, Dr. C. W. Hibbard, curator, has announced. The display was lent to Dr. Hibbard by his brother, Edward Hibbard, graduate of the University of Kansas law school in 1941, who is now stationed in New Guinea.
Hibbard was sent up into the hills of New Guinea on various military missions. There he had contacts with various native tribes. He purchased from them a group of bamboo arrows and a native bow and sent them to his wife, the former Uarda Sherry, who graduated from the University in 1940. Fearing the possibility of poisoned arrows, Mrs. Hibbard sent them on to her brother-in-law here.
Just last week Dr. Hibbard opened the gunny-sacked package. Most interesting content was the five-foot bow and its bowstring of native bark. Included with the dark, strong bow were eleven long arrows made from bamboo stalks. One of the arrows had four sharp tips probably used for killing fish, Dr. Hibbard added. All the arrows are reinforced with strips of braided plants, tipped with a gum resin.
Those weapons are excellent evidence of the fact that there are no stone cultures in New Guinea, Dr. Hibbard stated.

Notification has come to the University that thirty-one colleges and universities recently adopted as their official texts for upper classmen and graduate students in physics a book written in 1942 by J. D. Stranathan, Professor of physics and head of the department here. The list includes such universities as California, Chicago, Stanford, Pennsylvania State, and Saskatchewan and Toronto in Canada, and Bowdoin, Berea and De Pauw colleges. The recent list also includes eight re-adoptions by such schools as Ohio State and Wisconsin university. Previously 28 schools had adopted the book.
Stranathan's Book Adopted by Colleges
"The 'Particles' of Modern Physics" is the title. According to teachers in the field of physics, its wide acceptance comes in part from the fact that it emphasizes experimental evidence for concepts of atomic structure and behavior. It carries more than 1000 references to individual research papers.

Summer Will Find Coeds Working, Men in School
What are Kansas University students going to do this summer? Some are planning to stay in school, about half of them are planning to work at least some of the time, and a few are still keeping up the pre-war tradition of many college students by spending the summer at home "resting" up for next fall or vacationing.
Some, who plan to work, are planning a short vacation helping to entertain that certain "someone" home on leave or a furlough. A few are even planning to pay short visits to an Army or Navy base "somewhere in the United States." Men Still in School
Most of the few civilian men who are still here are planning to go on through the summer to school although a few will quit to work. Several expect to be going into the service as soon as school is out.
Women from K. U. will be doing everything from pitching hay to punching typewriters in the three months time before returning to their books in the fall. Several said they plan to work as temporary civil service employees for the government or state.
A couple of them said that they will work on small town newspapers, life guard at the "ole swimmer hole," and do a little "riveting" on the side for the summer months. Coeds Take Many Jobs
Down town stores will have a collegiate air about them as coeds fill in for the summer months. College girls will be on the other side of the counter at the U S O canteen.
