While stationed here on the campus one of the most obvious characteristics of the ASTP men was their great spirit. Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen was a frequent object of the army men's jokes and no one enjoyed it more than Dr. Allen himself. Often the marching groups would give a long and loud cheer for "Phog" Allen as they passed Robinson gymnasium. And there were artists among the men, too, for on the basketball coach's car, where rain and snow had splattered many unique pictures were drawn. A long greyhound decorated one side of the "the hearse," as it was called by the men; phrases of "Is dot you Foggie?"", "Crumb Allen," and others were printed all over the car. In one place there was a basketball court drawn with two baskets at each end marked 12 feet high, dedicated to Dr. Allen's revolutionary idea for improving basketball. All these and a few others were easy to see on the car.
Dr. Allen admired these men and was especially emphatic in his praise of the fine basketball team of the ASTP, which could have given any队a battle. When themen had no place to practice, he shared Robinson gym with them. Their admiration for the dean of American basketball coaches was great also. But the army has left now, and no cheers of "Yea Phog, Yea Allen, Yea Yea, Phog Allen" will be heard ringing down the campus and the "the hearse" can now be washed clean of its art work. The men of the ASTP have gone but their spirit remains. We have no doubt that wherever the army men from KU go, the morale of the place will improve.
Fennis Players Get Call
Prof. Richard Howey today announced he was ready to meet all men interested in tennis at his office in room 4, Frank Strong hall in anticipation of early practice and play.

Army airfield football teams were given a big boost lately when travel restrictions which would have held the teams to their bases were lifted. This will cause many bases to go in for big-time football as Randolph Field did last year. The Ramblers played 10 games last season, winning nine, losing one, and tying mighty Texas in the Cotton Bowl game. 7-7. Texas has several army air bases and no doubt is planning major schedules including as many colleges in the Southwest conference as possible.

"It has been my conviction," Willkie said, "That no Republican could be nominated for President unless he received at the convention the votes of some of the major Midwestern states."
WILLKIE----
Four years ago Mr. Willkie bowed into the national stage by taking the Republican convention in Philadelphia by storm and becoming their party's presidential nominee. Losing to Franklin D. Roosevelt in November 1940, Mr. Willkie resumed his efforts and began to conduct a campaign for 1944.
