Column
By Don Cousins
Why the recent distractions in the afternoon physics classes? Could it have been the innocent little maidens of Corbin hall flitting about the top deck of Watkin's hospital in their brief hospital gowns?
Betty Lou Perkins and quite a few others at Corbin hall have mentioned that they would be more than glad to launder the Navy boys' white uniforms, free of charge.
Has anyone found Ruth Krehbiel's "Sally pin??" Because of its enormous sentimental value, Ruth has been extremely saddened over the loss. The pin's description: Big, luscious brown eyes, bright orange hair-braids, and a big red tongue dangling from its mouth. Reward: You'd be surprised!!
Sonny Love, formerly a popular K.U. fixture, is doing good work as a V-12 at the University of Pennsylvania. Last week he sent us the 23rd Psalm of the V-12's:
The Chief is my master, I dare not want.
He orderheit me over the obstacle course:
He maketh me roll in the dust.
Yea, thou I walk down the valleys
I must run up the hills.
Thy fist and thy foot, they frighten me;
Thou givest me security watch in the dead of the night;
Thou anointest my head with
lumps.
My sweat runneth over.
Surely his unfaltering eye shall follow me
All the days of my life,
And I will live in fear of the Chief forever.
A tip to all men from Larry Smith: Don't let your roommates dictate your love letters. Poor Larry—he's lost his California correspondence.
Probably one of the finest musicians ever to attend K.U. was Johnny Pope, who graduated this past June. Johnny is now playing in New York with Jack Jenny's Orchestra, and is well on his way to chairs in the top name bands. Good luck, Johnny!
Clark "Sea Dog" Henry has been unanimously chosen as the "saliest" character of PT-8. Take it from me, he squares that hat in a strictly veteran fashion.
Danny Bachmann, formerly a bandleader and student at K.U., and truly a great guy, is faring well at Oberlin, Ohio. He especially enjoyed himself this past weekend, didn't he, Betty Lou?
Advancement in the Army is a rather simple process nowadays. Recently, a uniformed Western Un-
Dodderidge Killed In Sicilian Campaign
Lieut, James H. Dodderidge, graduate of the University in the spring of 1942, was killed in action on July 16 during the Sicilian campaign according to a War department message received by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth C. Dodderidge, 620 Indiana street.
While a student at the University, Lieut. Dodderidge was a member of the R.O.T.C. Upon his graduation he went into active duty on July 13, 1942, and was sent to Fort Benning, Ga., for officer training. He was a Fine officer in the infantry.

Henry Werner, member of the Memorial union operating committee, said that the cellar was being built at the request of Miss Hermina Zipple, director of food services, who with her staff of nine dietitians.

to enter college under the plan.
(continued from page one)
The board has examined 60 applicants and 40 are enrolled in colleges throughout the state. Those admitted have, as a group, done better work than average college freshmen.
A number of non-graduates under this plan are expected to be enrolled in Kansas colleges this fall.
The Central Board members received their appointments as members by the presidents of the five state schools. The Central Board members are: Dr. A. H. Turney, chairman; Dr. Donald Johnson, assistant professor of psychology, Fort Hays Kansas State College; Dr. Paul Murphy, professor of psychology, Kansas State Teachers College, Pittsburg; Dr. J. C. Peterson, professor of psychology, Kansas State College, Manhattan; and Dr H. E. Schrammel, director, bureau of educational measurements, Kansas State Teachers College, Emporia

ion boy delivered a telegram in the new Pentagon war department building in Washington, D.C. Because of the great size and complexities in the construction of this building, he became lost within its corridors. Three hours later he was found, and had been commissioned a Lieutenant Colonel. (Comparatively speaking, it seems conceivable that a few of the A-12 boys will be corporals by 1945.)

The engagement of Susie Wilkerson, college junior, to Gerald Carter, graduate of the University this spring, has been announced. Both are residents of Lawrence.

Miss Wilkerson is a member of Jay Jones and Carter was a member of Alpha Chi Sigma, professional chemistry fraternity. He now is employed in the government laboratories at the Sunflower Ordnance Works.

So you see the people who are unaffected by the pollen have their troubles too, for who, in heaven's name, can understand these people who run radar a close race for detecting the coming of pollen.
Just keep your hay fever noses tilted windward, and grin and bear it. And here's a comforting thought—the first frost can't be much more than two months off.

Muscle re-education is then instituted to develop mental awareness of alienated muscles and to re-establish muscle co-ordination. This aspect of the treatment should be carried out by physical therapy technicians.
"It is not known exactly how the application of these packs brings about recovery," said Mrs. Stauffer. "It is thought that the heat helps to relax the mus les thereby permitting re-education of the affected muscles much earlier."
Mrs. Stauffer recently received instruction in the application of the Kenny treatment at the University hospital in Kansas City. Mrs. Harold W. Wilson, clinic nurse at Wat-

kins hospital, is also trained in the administration of the treatment. Mrs. Wilson received her training at the University of Minnesota under the supervision of Sister Elizabeth Kenny.
Sister Kenny, Australian nurse, discovered the treatment several years ago while she was working in the Bush country, backwoods section of Australia. During a serious outbreak of the disease, she developed her own method of treatment because of inability to secure medical and nursing assistance. Sister Kenny first applied the packs for the purpose of relieving the acute pain, but discovered that the patients who had been treated with the hot packs evidenced remarkable recovery.
Kenny at Minnesota
Sister Kenny was invited by the medical profession to come to the United States and was given clinical facilities at the University of Minnesota to demonstrate and teach her method. It is now being employed in many hospitals and is
Although much remains to be developed in the Kenny treatment, it has been vitally important in decreasing the mortality of poliomyelitis victims in the current epidemic of the disease.

The nursery was first established Feb. 1, 1942, by the University through the Save the Children Federation in collaboration with the British government.

This amount is matched by the English government plus the extra sums that are needed for maintenance. So far, since Feb. 1 of this year, $3200 has been contributed.
SAFEGUARD YOUR CASH THIS WAY!
"K.U. is the only college sponsoring such a program of war-work besides the Randolph Macon girl's school at Macon, Ga," Mr. Mix said. "There, the only other war activity is Red Cross, while in Lawrence the collections for numerous other organizations make the drive complicated."
