Malott States KU To Continue Work
(continued from page one) after the military victory has been accomplished.
Advices were received yesterday by the Chancellor confirming a previous announcement by the war department that the University would participate in the Army Specialized Training program. But as to when such trainees would arrive, no information is available. Such trainees, if of considerable numbers, would probably be housed in the Mineral Industries building.
Fraternity Houses Will Be Used
In the meantime, plans are being made to quarter approximately 500 naval engineers who will arrive at the University about July 1, for specialized training. These engineers will be housed in fraternity houses and negotiations are now under way between University and fraternity officials to complete the plans for the houses which the navy will require.
Society houses and men's and women's dormitories will not be disturbed under any plans now known.
The University is now to operate on a full year round basis with a full semester of 16 weeks opening on May 24 with offerings in all departments of the University if there is the demand for them. Advance registrations from over the state indicate that a sizeable freshman class will report for the summer semester.
Paul Gilles Named Honor Chemistry Man For Year 1942-43
Paul W. Gilles, College senior, has been named the honor chemistry senior for the school year 1942-43, Dr. R. Q. Brewster, chairman of the department of chemistry, announced today.
This award, made on the basis of scholarship, personality, and integrity, is made each year to the outstanding senior in the departments of chemistry and chemical engineering. The name of the honor student is then engraved on a placque hung on the wall of the first floor hall in Bailey Chemical Laboratories. The placque was donated by Alpha Chi Sigma, professional chemical fraternity.
The semester for the engineering students will open July 1, and from May 24 until July 1, an intensive five weeks program will be offered to pre-engineering students, designed especially for those who may present deficiencies in the requirements for entering the engine school, especially in the field of mathematics. However, full University engineering credit will be given those enrolled in the five weeks period who are not required to make up any deficiencies. Fundamental Training Carried On
Dean Lawson said, "it is the function of colleges and universities today to prepare both for our immediate war needs and for the needs of the post-war world. The College of Liberal Arts, therefore, proposes to offer training not only for today but also for tomorrow, and just as far as circumstances will permit, will offer work in all the main fields of human thought and culture. With this end in view, the University intends to carry on, alongside of its war training program the fundamental education and training of every department and division of the University."

DELAYS and disappointments appear certain on Mother's Day Long Distance calls
With so many men away from home on army and navy service, delays appear certain on many longer long distance telephone lines next Sunday—Mother's Day. We'll do the best we can, but we know that a lot of folks who place calls then will run into disappointments.
If, despite this, you wish to talk home by long distance, please plan to make your call before Mother's Day if possible. And please make your call reasonably brief—not more. than five minutes—so that as many others as possible may talk to their mothers, too.
We will do everything we can to get calls through. But—especially when vital metals are needed for war the telephone system cannot be expanded to handle floods of greeting calls on top of the exceptionally heavy business growing out of the war.
On shorter lines—up to about a hundred miles away — to towns that are not military or war manufacturing centers—service will be about as usual. But all "main line" routes will be jammed.
