Patsy Piller Featured In Graduate Magazine Distributed Today
Patsy Piller is "Pin Up Girl No. 1" in the current issue of the Graduate magazine, for her picture and short biographical sketch are the first to be published in the new feature, which is included for the benefit of KU servicemen.
The latest issue, which is being mailed today, also includes a twopage tribute to William Allen White, written by Ruth Jane Garver Gagliardo, '22, wife of Prof. D. Gagliardo of the School of Business who is now on leave. Mrs. Gagliardo's article contains new and vivid descriptions of the late editor, with whom she was associated in Emporia. Accompanying pictures add interest to her story, and especially noteworthy is the picture of the now famous party of students who, under the guidance of Prof. F. H. Snow, went on a summer field trip to Estes Park, Colo., in 1889.
Prominent Grads Introduced
Two exceptionally prominent graduates, Frank Rising, '24, and Edmund Learned, '22, are introduced in this latest magazine, and almost a page is devoted to each. Because his son and daughter, Don and Betty, are now students at the University, Edmund Learned is perhaps more familiar to campus readers of the magazine. As special consultant to the commanding general of army air forces for program control, Mr. Learned has "contributed greatly to the effectiveness of America's war punch," the article remarks.
Five pages cover news of the graduates in the services, and four pages carry items about many civillian alumni. There are also several short "Notes on Professors."
KFKU PROGRAM Tonight:
Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
Expensive technique you've got there, Marie: On the way home from a movie, Watkins hall girls were talking about how they should lay in a supply of cosmetics before the new 20% luxury tax goes into effect.
Piped up Marie Larson, "Well, I have five tubes of Chen Uy lipstick, but I suppose I'd better get another—mine seems to go so fast."
Marie has a date to the Junior Prom Saturday with Lew Purtinton, Battenfeld. We wonder how many tubes that will take.
Gene Kittle, who has been known around the Phi Psi house since early fall as "One Semester Kittle," showed up Monday with enough credits to enroll for second semester.

Someone has suggested there must also be a grade point black market. * * *
Since cheese is rationed: A new method of rodent extermination was
practiced by Jay Gunnels and several Sigma Kappas including Clara Lee Oxley and Maurine Waterstratt coming back after vacation via train. Also traveling to Lawrence at the time were two mice of the Fearless Fosdick type. Jay and the girls soon tired of holding their feet up with all the other passengers when the mice put in their frequent appearances.
So with Yankee ingenuity, they hid a wad of gum in a chocolate. One of the mice bit, got his teeth helplessly stuck together and ran off, his sympathetic buddy following. * * *
In their search for the mythical "joy-juice," Phi Si pledges have turned to a certain Vitamin B-1 tonic which, according to advertisements, is also rich in iron. The fact that the medicine is mixed with 15 per cent alcohol has absolutely nothing to do with their love of it—said one as he rolled on the floor.
