'Strictly Scuttlebutt'
By Lt. (jg) C. V. McGuigan, U.S.N.R.
BY LL. (yg) C. V. MCGUNGAN, U.S.A.
The latest scuttlebutt has it that the "Flying Jayhawk Review" will be here the 15th of July. "They" say it really is a good show with a band that "can really turn it out." All military personnel, their wives and close personal friends are invited. The show will start at approximately 1945.
Welcome to the V-12 boys, and a bit of praise for their marching ability to date. Without previous training, the boys have turned in a remarkable performance. The boys should be in uniform shortly, and the good ship, "K.U." will be very well manned with blue jackets.
Through the scuttlebutt grapevine, comes word of quite an argument recently. It concerns the two WAVE officers now on duty at the University. Their names are Ensign Florence Buerckholtz and Marjorie Stranahan, and welcome to the Jayhawk state. They hail, respectively, from Whiting, Indiana, and Cleveland, Ohio. Now to the argument—"How do you greet a Wave Officer?" The answer is—"Good morning, Miss Buerckholtz," or, if you don't know the wave officer's name, then,—"Good morning, Ensign," "Lieutenant" (or whatever rank she holds). It is permissable to say "Good morning, Miss," but it is not preferred. Hope that helps a little.
They say that the officers attached to the machinists' mates school have aching muscles. The reason is the command course, which the officers are now touring, and it's not a tour of inspection, but part of their "toughening up" program. The former phy. ed. officer was reported "gold bricking" with a sore back. What an excuse.)
With the lack of transportation facilities becoming more acute every day, wouldn't it be a good idea for anyone driving to the campus or to downtown Lawrence, to offer men in the service a lift?
Here are some for the Book of Honor. Two men, R. L. Bernard, of 12th Division, 2nd Platoon, and R. L. Powers, of 12th Division, 3rd Platoon. Each of the two boys found money lying on the deck. There was no billfold or means of determining ownership. However, they still turned the money into the Officer of the Deck, with the simple statement, "Here's some money I found." I

don't know who it belongs to, but maybe someone will ask for it."—Another proof that "This is worth fighting for."
We wind up today's repartee with a welcome to the 13th Division as they come aboard. Their Division Officer is Lt. (jg) O. N. Pederson, who made an enviable record with the 9th Division. The 13th has fallen into line in fine shape already, and appear to be "a fine bunch of boys capable of carrying on the school's fine record."—And this is bearing in mind that they are the 13th too!

Dan Ragle, editor of the summer directory, reported his procedure to the Council and said that the directory would be ready for distribution sometime next week, depending upon when the Registrar's Office can release the names of the students enrolled in the new semester.
raula Reeve, chairman of the
committee to further investigate the raise of the student health fee, reported that the committee found that the Army and Navy does pay for its use of the Student hospital, but even so, the $2.50 raise in the health fee is necessary to maintain the hospital on its minimum running expenses. The report was accepted by the Council.
Dennis Bixby, secretary of the women's executive committee, presented a report of the committee's actions to date.
John Sells, College sophomore, was installed as representative from the Men's Inter-Hall council, replacing Mou Hui King.
New Hours

Before the council adopted these new hours, polls were taken at Corbin, Miller, and Watkins halls, and the women were almost unanimously in favor of the change.
"The women should realize that the committee took this action because we believed that they desired the new hours, and now it is up to them as to whether or not the hours will be permanent," Miss Larson stated.
The committee will make out the closing hours for final week at their next meeting and will continue their revision of the house rules.

graduate in two and two-thirds years, the new program may make it possible to clip another semester from that period, Dean Lawson asid. With the five hours gained in the fall term beginning in September, and with an extra hour or two added to the regular college load, it is quite possible to gain a full semester during the eight semester period.
Chief reasons for reestablishing the starting date of the University's winter semester were the teaching manpower situation and classroom accommodations. Running two semesters on different calendar schedules—one for the naval engineers and another for civilian students—would require in many instances duplication of staff members and classroom space. Both problems, the administration pointed out, are practically insurmountable under the press of war conditions, except by running the semesters concurrently.
