THE KANSAN COMMENTS
'GI Bill of Rights Would Give Veterans Money for Education
To those college men who were drafted in the middle of their school year the most important item in the "GI Bill of Rights" measure introduced by Senator Bennet C. Clark of Missouri in the Senate last week is the education benefit which would allow them to finish their schooling at the government's expense.
A compilation of many measures presented recently, the bill provides for hospitalization, loans for homes, farms and businesses, employment service and unemployment benefits as well as education and vocational training for war veterans. Because almost all senators already have endorsed it, it is predicted the bill will be passed by the Senate.
In the provision for education, war veterans would, as full time students, be allowed $500 a year for tuition and an allotment of $50 a month for subsistence. An additional $25 a month would be added for each dependent. Under the bill, the education would begin not later than two years after the veteran's discharge or the war's end.
At least one year of school—anything from elementary to college—at government expense would be granted the veteran and three additional years added, if he completed the first year "satisfactorily." Eligible for the veteran's aid are those men and women who have served in active military or naval service after Sept. 16, 1940, and before the war's end and were discharged honorably after six months duty.
Servicemen overseas will probably be glad to know that the American people realize they owe them a debt, which this Congressional action will partially repay.

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
Bank on the Bankers: K. W.
Davidson, the University's director of information, was down chattying with a high muckety-muck in the First National bank. Suddenly the banker did a three-point in his swivel chair, and asked, out of the clear blue, if Kappa Kappa Gamma was a sorority or a fraternity.
"A sorority, of course," said K.
"A sorority, of course," said K. W.
"Oh, my gosh," croaked the banker, "I just sent them a letter and started it out 'Gentlemen'."
Just the man for the job: Gene Kittle would probably be the most efficient treasurer either the Phi
Psi's or the All Student Council ever had—if he wasn't working under the great handicap of being named, in long, Lawrence Eugene. Over a dozen of Gene's checks on the organizations have bounced—because he subconsciously writes them to the First National Bank of Lawrence E. Kittle and signs Lawrence Kansas at the bottom.
He's in the market now for an orderly wife — providing he gets his door back: At chapter meeting the other night, the TKE's moved that Warren Spikes, their past president, be finned 10 cents for each day that no improvement was shown in

Split-second communication in warfare calls for instant understanding—that's why it is so necessary to practice up on battle talk. Navy fliers improve their speech by playing back their own voices on the "Mirrophone," a magnetic tape recording reproducer built by Western Electric.

History Teachers Will Meet April 15
War calls keep Long Distance lines busy
...That's why your call may be delayed.
The 16th annual meeting of the Kansas Association of History Teachers will take place in Topeka, April 15. Dr. A. Bokwer Sageser, president of the association has announced.
the tidiness of his room, entrance to which was, at the time, blocked by a pile of suit coats, neckties, and shirts.
Warren promptly locked his door—and for three days, no one could tell whether he was abiding by the decision of the fraternity or not.
Finally (for Warren's own sake) two of the boys shinned up the front of the house and went in a window of the problem room. They removed the door and hid it.
Warren refers to himself bitterly as "The Goldfish."
Why professors are often late: On his way back to the Hill from lunch yesterday, Prof. George Rinehart of the journalism department noticed a crowd in front of a house, and crossed over to find it was just a sale.
As he walked past, the auctioneer put up a walnut table.
"Fifty cents," bid the professor with a laugh—and walked on.
by laughing, did the professor with a laugh—and walked on. But he didn't get far. The 50 cents purchased the table and a burly assistant to the auctioneer insisted that he take it with him.
