Kansan to Publish "Pee Wee"
The annual Journalism honors award banquet is still three weeks off, but already, something in the air around the "shack" indicates that press day for the Pee Wee Kansan is approaching.
Printed for journalism students and distributed at their places on the night of the banquet, the Pee Wee Kansan is read eventually by almost as many students as see the daily edition of the University paper.
The Pee Wee Kansan is popular because in it appears everything frustrated journalism students have been wanting to say all year long. Censored Rock Chalk stories, filler jokes that didn't quite get by, names students have been calling professors—all this and more come out in black and white when the Pee Wee Kansan hits the press.
The secret of the Pee Wee Paper, printed exactly like the Kansan on paper about one half the size, is that it has no censorship. Students —no one ever knows quite which ones—write and edit it. And in the past, they have let their hair down at the task.
Last year the publication was done by men in the department. With only one man journalist this year, the paper will be the work of women, and will undoubtedly prove something significant about the two sexes—if only that both are equally talented when it comes to writing copy with questionable meaning.
Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor:
According to your published letter of Tuesday's Kansan, there seems to be doubt even in the minds of the worthy majority leaders of the All Student Council as to the legality of the Council's decision to consider the armed forces of the University as full members of the ASC; and as equal-righted students of the University.
There should be no doubt as to the real legality of the rights of the army and navy men as full-righted students of K.U. This right would never have been questioned by the ASC had not the seated members of the PSGL and PWCL parties declared illegal and unconstitutional any action to the contrary. The attitudes on the part of these party members toward the men of the University's armed forces has been, preceding the full voting privileges as voted last week, selfish, strictly partisan and unfair to the highest degree of meaning.
It is interesting to note that the ASC met at 3:30 p.m. on Thursday, the very day that the members of the PSGL and the PWCL parties, knowing the ASC would declare all rulings depriving or limiting the voting powers of the armed forces members as unconstitutional, to prevent this action and moved to rescind the bill of the previous day limiting the power of the army and navy men to vote. These partisans also moved that the report of their elections committee be returned for consideration. As was previously pointed out, this motion passed unanimously. To clarify this stand and assure the army and navy their right to vote, the resolution stating that the Council recognize the right of the members of the armed forces to vote was introduced by representatives of the WIGS and PACHACAMAC parties. If the previous motion of the PSGL and the PWCL had given the army and navy men the right to vote, which they strongly inferred in the doctored newsstory in the Kansan of Wednesday, May
Rock Chalk Talk
By DIXIE GILLILAND
KU's Elsa Maxwell — King of all time picnic party men, Hal Hogue, Phi Delt from Kansas State, who has more or less affiliated with the local chapter of Phi Kappa Psi, went the limit Sunday morning when he led a group of sleepy Phi Psi's and dates in a trek to the country for a breakfast picnic deluxe. Hogue said in a recent interview that he is working on blue prints for a midnight snack which he believes will rock local picnic social circles.

I'll give you just fifteen minutes to take your hand off my knee"—Illustrating that coeds are really hard up when it comes to the manpower situation, the following names appeared on the Kappa spring formal date list: General Eisenhower and nephew, Charlie Chaplin, Errol Flynn.

Yell Fore, Anyway—It was a hot, hot day all around, and girls on the Chi Omega sun deck were feeling the full glory of the celestial body.
Dr. Elizabeth Wilson, head of the counseling department in the Kansas City, Mo., public schools, will arrive at the University on Saturday to confer with Dean F. T. Stockton of the School of Business; A. H. Turney, professor of education, and Leslie Waters, assistant professor of economics, on the program for the Guidance Institute at the University this summer.
10. this resolution would not have been necessary.
Dr. Wilson to Confer On Guidance Institute
The climate of Japan is temperate and healthful with abundant rainfall.
Dr. Wilson will be on the summer school faculty, continuing her work in guidance and teaching clinical problems in education and non-typical children.
The ASC members of PSGL and PWCL definitely showed in their stands against the resolution now in effect that:
a. The previous resolution had not given the armed members of K.U. the right to vote, although it appeared to do so.
Sincerely yours,
A Student.
The letter of Tuesday's Kansan also failed to state that the navy political leaders who desired the right to vote for their brothers-in-uniform had contacted all four University political parties in pleas that they receive their rightful voting privileges. They found that PSGL and PWCL members were so secure in their electoral office positions and so satisfied with politics of the University as they balanced in their favor, that the beseeching navy leaders were not even given audience. The question concerning the voting privileges of the army and navy was not political until the PSGL and PWCL groups made it so by their constant refusal to accept the uniformed students as equal-righted students of the University.
b. They still placed politics and the winning of the student election above the voting rights of a good portion of the student body, the army and navy men.
The letter published in Tuesday's Kansas by Davis and Engle, president and secretary of the ASC respectively, was strictly out of order and illegal since in order for them to speak for the actions of the ASC, they must be so instructed by the Council. The Council had given no such instructions.
So, when Betty June Craig leaned up gasping, "I just saw a golf ball go over!" loving sisters merely threw her in a cold shower and returned to the deck. Moments later they all saw it—a golf ball sailing in a beautiful are over their heads. A mad dash was made for the shady interior of the chapter house!
It seems a shame to ruin their awed story about "sun spots—or something," but truth must out. What the girls saw really was a golf ball, shot by R. J. Atkinson, Phi Psi, from in front of Marvin hall, on a bet he couldn't do it.

Call in Sherlock Holmes—The Alpha Chi's are thinking of calling the attention of Midshipman Bob Farley, Annapolis, to their latest unsolvable mystery—simply for the sympathy he might wish to offer, of course! Glennie Jean Waters, ex-Alpha Chi prexy, who wears Bob's Beta pin, some fractured a rib last week, and no one is quite sure how the accident happened.
Four Years Ago Today--ann sorc terd Sj Fla.
Four years ago today in France the Germans, using over 2,000 tanks pressed east and south to Landrielies and the Guise. They reached the Aisne river. They occupied Anwerp, in Belgium, and hoisted the Reich's flag over the Town Hall.
It was also on this date that Premier Reynaud reshuffled the French cabinet, bringing in as Vice Premier and technical adviser on military operations Marshal Henri Phillippe Petain, the man who stopped the Germans at Verdun in the World War. Marshal Petain, then 84, arrived in Paris by plane from Spain, where he had been Ambassador. Reynaud took over the War Ministry, replacing Edouard Daladier, who became Foreign Minister.

The War Department made public today the names of the following Kansans reported missing in the Mediterranean area.

Aeronautics Course For Women to Start June 5; Ninety Enroll
The fourth course in aeronautical engineering offered by the University in cooperation with North American Aviation, Inc., of Kansas City Mo., and the Boeing Airplane Company of Wichita will begin June 5, with approximately 90 women enrolled for training, Prof. H. S. Stillwell of the University Aeronautical engineering department announced yesterday.
The new course will be essentially the same as the third program which ended April 29, with the addition of a special course in production planning for part of the Boeing representatives, Professor Stillwell said.
Women must meet certain standards set up by the war plants to be eligible for the free training. They are sent directly from the companies, and receive salaries of $110 a month while in school.
During the 13-weeks intensified course, women trainees will attend classes in aircraft drafting, aircraft material and processes, applied mathematics, aircraft terminology, and engineering procedures, and analysis of standard parts. The 60 representatives from the Boeing company will also attend a processing laboratory. During the latter part of the program a portion of this group will be selected for the special production planning course.
The new program will continue according to the regular plan of a 48-hour week, Professof Stillwell said. The trainees attend school eight hours a day, six days a week.
