THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Closing Hour Rules May Be Clarified by Story of WEC Action
To those new students who may find the women's closing hours a bit confusing, a short summary of the Women's Executive Council's action on the subject may prove helpful. The closing hour rules were made last summer by a special committee appointed by the WEC in cooperation with the adviser of women; the rules were only slightly revised for the fall term.
Retaining the former closing hours of 10:30 on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday night, the committee changed Wednesday and Sunday hours to 11 p.m., Friday to 12 p.m., and Saturday to 12:45 a.m. On nights preceding finals, University women may stay out until 11 p.m. Closing hours on nights preceding holidays and vacations and during vacations, registration and enrollment, and commencement are 12 p.m.
Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday night hours were extended to conform with those observed by servicemen stationed at the University. Since many men on the campus are restricted on Friday night and since allowing women out alone after midnight seemed inadvisable, the WEC set up the Friday closing hours to 12 p.m.
In connection with rules regulating women's study hours, the WEC prohibits the entertaining of men in women's rooming houses after 8 p.m. except during the weekend and on holidays.
The first two violations of WEC House Rules, which include those pertaining to closing hours, may be dealt with by the group of which the-offender is a member or the landlady in an unorganized house. Succeeding or flagrant violations will be referred to the House Rules Committee.
In establishing these regulations, the WEC provided for the revision of the rules whenever necessary.

Hospital to Offer Nurses' Aide Class
A new course in Nurses' Aide will begin at 3:30 p.m. Monday at Watkins Memorial hospital. The class will meet for two hour sessions every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for six weeks.
Mrs. John Holmes, 924 Massachusetts, will be in charge of the class and Miss Maude Landis, 1521 Stratford Road, will be the assistant.

Another committee will be in the Red Cross rooms in the basement of the Community building from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Thursday and Friday and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday.
"We are very eager to have women enroll who have considerable time to devote to Red Cross work," stated Mrs. R. H. Beamer, chairman of the Nurses' Aide committee for the Douglas county chapter of the Red Cross. "We can accept only a limited enrollment and want to train women who are vitally interested in the work."

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
Let's don't get technical: Marvel Enno was supposed to find a small black kitten on the scavenger hunt Alpha Omicron Pi freshmen engaged in toward the end of their hell week. She came back to the house several hours after the go signal towing an oversized, jet tomeat. A. O. Pi actives questioned the fact that she had a kitten.
"He has had thyroid trouble," explained Marvel.

More hell: Gamma Phi freshmen appeared single file on the campus yesterday dragging eight-foot strings. And as they walked along, each carried on a scintillating conversation with her particular rope. She was required to personify it as her boyfriend, roommate, or pet. The trick was one of the less difficult exercises assigned during Gamma Phi hell week. For something really berserk — ask a G. P. pledge when and why she must blow a whistle.
Reduced attendance at concerts on the part of Battenfeld boys — according to the boys may be explained by the fact that they have plenty of concerts of their own now right in the hall.

Carman Tells Rotary Of Bombing Europe From African Base
First Lt. Frederick Carman, a former student and son of Prof. J. Neale Carman of the department of Romance languages, told Rotarians Monday how it feels to bomb Sicily, France, Italy, and other points in the news with a squadron that never dies.
Lieutenant Carman has been navigator in 52 combat missions in the Mediterranean sector. His missions, he said, began in Africa and spread to numerous points in the European theater of war.
In their North African campaign the Germans maintained an experimental bombing station in the western end of Sicily to send up fighter planes to try out new ideas of attack and ammunition, he said. This method of warfare kept Americans constantly guessing until German losses became so heavy that they had to cease experimenting.
"After a flyer has gone through 40 or more missions, he is likely to become somewhat 'unstrung' and less dependable in his work," said Lieutenant Carman.
It has come about since Joe Gray, the fiddling engineer, moved in. Joe is studying aeronautics, but he spends most of his time sawing out classical music on a rebellious violin. He isn't taking lessons — the boys feel perhaps it would be better if he did.
--it is estimated that every inductee requires a minimum of one and a half fillings.
We hope he'll do better in the war: Before going into the air corps, Bob Pool, last-semester Battenfeld resident, decided to visit Ron Nordeen, Battenfeld also, in Mound City. The first night the two were on the loose. Bob was not exactly hot for his date. So he announced that on the following night—he would not drag blind again—but get himself a date. Thanks to Ron anyway for being willing to help. Pool then called the girl with whom Nordeen had just been out. When Bob came in from the engagement next night Mrs. Nordeen and her rapidly-turning-green son noticed deep scratches on his hands. Bob explained he got them in a wrestling match with his uncle some time ago. But Ron continues to maintain the wounds were fresh, and gives his girl credit for actively resisting a bad thing.
