Shorter Session Features Study
Today students went to classes for the first time in the five-week session. Some students were new, some were old, but all felt that their experiences were unique in their college career.
Never before had students attended a five-week session in the fall. But with the doubling up of hours devoted to each class daily, the five weeks ought to go rapidly and with interest in classwork kept at a high pitch continuously.
Psychologically, shorter learning periods spaced over a longer time are supposed to be more profitable. However, the very fact that learning will be condensed and intense will tend to make students concentrate on daily work.
Procrastination in so short a term would be fatal A case of belated spring fever may overtake one and before he can rouse himself, grades for the session will be due.
Students enrolled in the session, however, are here because they want to finish their college training as soon as possible or because they are so genuinely interested in their education that they gave up high-salaried jobs or the leisure of life at home to return. Such students will devote all their time and energy to the matter at hand. In scholarship, the students who entered their classes for the first time today ought to equal or excel those of any other year. It's a bet!

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
When John Rutledge came to K.U. he had a fairly dignified classification. After taking a number of courses he found he had been demoted a whole class. "I gotta get outa this place," Rutledge is quoted as walling to his Phi Psi brothers. "If I stay here much longer I won't even have a high school diploma." Rutledge is now recovering his prestige at the University of Minnesota.
After waiting 2 hours for his transcript to be found at enrollment one male fresh named Banber said, "It would be easier to get out of Germany than into K.U." He left.

When Harvey Hartzel Haines III returns to the hill on furlough a head of firey red hair will overshadow the crowd-gathering faculties of his raccoon coat-if that fur pup tent is still being worn by the well known Phi Delt. Harv got the urge to dye his hair after being in quarantine with the army at Indiana University for numerous weeks. Jack Rinehardt and Bob Harwi, Phi Gams now in uniform, coached while Harve applied the peroxide. While everyone was hoping for blonde, the general consensus seems to be that Chinese red is very becoming to the Great Haines.

Shortly after college freshmen had finished meeting with their dean, Jim Calkins, Beta, was seen whipping out of the back of Fraser, one hand grasping a fistful of hair, eyes frantic, teeth set. He looked around and shouted in despair, "My gawd! They've gotten away!" Turning to an acquaintance he explained, "Those rushees—they sneaked down the fire escape and eluded me."

Beta Theta Pi is now meeting with some difficulty in coordinating the incident with the would-be-popular conception that their rush week consisted of receiving youths who applied, yea pleaded, for membership in the order.

Girls--did you know you had a classification? For further information, you might interview Dutch Creger, who has your number in a little black book (his red, white, and blue ones are filled). They tell me he has a library.
I've been obsessed with the idea
Warning: There has been a rumor to the effect that Chief Odum of the Naval Training School is to be a girls gym coach this fall. I don't know about you, but I've applied for a medical discharge.
Can anyone tell me what became of the cards Don Cousins borrowed? He mumbled something out of this world, and before I could say "seat," he had the dollars and the deck two miles outa town.
What's this about the little platoon leader with the clipped wing who goes into a coma in the corner when listening to "You'll Never Know." Is he homesick?
the army and navy fellows should get along like brothers instead of rival high school teams. It seems hopeless, though. Quote, Jimmy Baker: "The army is our ally. We treat 'em just like Russians and Chinese (don't speak the same language)." Quote, Kenny Rumple: "Sure, we like the navy fine—by the way! When do they sail out Kansas?"
Everyone should appreciate the hard, hot work the football boys are putting in. Almost half the team is composed of the navy, who keeps the ball rolling in addition to their none too easy courses.
It's a treat to see the coeds arriving; no doubt the situation will soon be well in hand. They look cunnin' even after cleaning the Pi houses when they come staggering in for a coke.
In his efforts to be present for the new student convocation Thursday, Chancellor Malott rode a B-17 bomber from Colorado Springs to Kansas City after a four-day trip to western states in his capacity as educational adviser for the U. S army air forces.

YWCA Interviewing Starts Today
Young Women's Christian Association cabinet members discussed ideas for their commission groups and committees and learned how to interview prospective YWCA members at their retreat Saturday at Henley House. The cabinet met in the afternoon with some of last year's YWCA members who will also act as interviewer to explain the program for this year.
Phone 880
From tomorrow until Friday the interviewers will meet personally with those girls who desire to join the YWCA, explain the purpose and program of the organization, and collect the pledges, Cara Shoemaker, president of the YWCA, said today.
The new idea of personal interviews and collection of pledges during the first week of school will eliminate the finance drive usually held later in the fall, she said.
