THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Meet Makes Seniors Realize Their Position In Whole of University
When the senior class met yesterday for its annual meeting, many seniors, perhaps for the first time, received some conception of their part in the University as a large organization. The realization that the next class meeting would be held in ten years made many think of K.U. as not merely a place for several years of classes, but also as a lifetime influence.
An assortment of class banners caught the eyes of seniors, who began to feel a definite part of the University. Even the arguments over a class gift showed the desire of the students to leave something in their alma mater which would become a part of tradition and life of K.U.
A degree means what the individual has accomplished for himself in college, but the institution from which it is issued means a great deal to the outside world, said Richard B. Stevens, president of the Alumni Association. And all graduates are proud that the good reputation of Kansas University has been built up. It is a challenge to seniors to add to this reputation after graduation and an inspiration to do well whatever they choose to do. As a person, as an employee, and as a friend, graduates of Kansas University have the opportunity to show their training and experience gained here.
Many senior classes have had their annual meeting and have gone. Each probably thought of its own individuality and importance. But each senior class, with its leadership in University life, becomes a part of the greater leadership of alumni still connected with University life.
Although this class is small, and many of those men who were a part of the class are elsewhere fighting, it is promising to see the spirit and enthusiasm left. Singing the alma mater and giving the Rock Chalk Jayhawk yell to close the meeting, shows that in spite of the war, graduates of K.U. will retain spirit and a satisfaction through life derived from their alma mater.
Letters to the Editor
The success of the large registration of donors for the fourth visit to Lawrence of the Mobile Unit of the Red Cross Donor Service was largely due to the enthusiastic response of the students of the University of Kansas. On the first afternoon of registration, 190 volunteers signed up in three hours time. This number was later increased to 280 of the total 647 volunteers.
The 497 pints of blood collected for the Army and Navy on this visit of the Red Cross, brings to 1607 pints the total contributions from this area to date. First time donors made up 253 of the group; 73 received silver buttons for their third donation; 20 had donated four times, two five times, one six times and one, Jo Lee Abbit, who acted as University chairman, seven times.
With the generous response of University students and Lawrence and Douglas County citizens, we feel sure that future visits of the Red Cross Mobile Unit will be successful. Ralph J. Carneutes, M.D.

Rock Chalk Talk
By HANNA HEDRICK
Jack Jarvis, Sigma Nu, had a big mission Saturday—destination, Kansas City. Shortly after noon, freshly shaved and gloves in hand, he was just about to depart from the Union fountain, when the commanding officer decided it would be an excellent time for the V-12's to have drill. Rushing off to join the parade, Jack spent from 1 to 3 p.m. drilling, and because he had forgotten his gloves at the Union, he received special duty for three extra hours after that. He arrived in the city at 8 p.m., ready to call it a day.

Embarrassing moment of the week:
When a western union telegraph operator had to call a coed and stammer out, "Hello, beautiful, I love you." The telephone wires radiated for miles.

He then served as a pastor in Texas and Missouri from 1928 until 1936, when he became professor and head of the department of religion and philosophy at Central College in Fayette, Mo. In 1939 he was awarded the Ph. D. degree by the University of Chicago. Since 1942 he has been associate professor of philosophy at the University of Colorado.

Out went the light in back of Miller hall late one night, so Jerry Catlett and Ruth Tuley, who were all but in bed, were called upon to fix it. In somewhat filmsy apparel (white pajamas with black dots), Jerry jawed back and on forth on the top of a stepladder replacing the bulb while her colleague stood by. At that moment, two members of PT4 strolled by. Being the aggressive type, they insisted on stopping and helping the girls, who didn't want to be helped.

Distance lends enchantment: A well-known sorority girl received a short note from a distant and unknown navy instructor who inclosed an examination sheet. All over the back was scrawled her name and address at different angles. The note from the instructor read: "I thought that the enclosed evidence of devotion ought to come to you. There is more to warrant your claim to the paper than mine. I merely gave the assignment." The doodler was a student here last year, whom she hasn't heard from or seen for many a month.

Winter Fury Returns, Snow Is Picturesque
Winter weather returned to the campus today with a fury.
A wet snow of nearly three inches clung to trees and for the second time made the scenery picturesque. Melting snow at noon made sidewalks and streets slippery, and freezing temperatures late today made pavements still more icy.
SAVING
Intermittent snow was expected to attain blizzard like proportions in some parts of the state, and tomorrow it is expected to be much colder although the skies will be clearing. Above season temperatures have prevailed for more than a month.
