Town Needs Recreation Plans--Miss Stapleton
Lack of recreational planning in Lawrence was the theme of Miss Joie Stapleton, instructor of physical education, in her speech to the YWCA-YMCA cabinets at the retreat at the Unitarian church yesterday morning. She related the recent history of city recreational programs.
After the WPA funds were withdrawn, the mayor's com-
After the WPA funds we mittee on recreation planned a budget, using money through the Federal Lanham act, for public programs for cities in need. The city council refused to ask for funds, Miss Stapleton asserted, and failed to see the need for organized recreation.
Unable to work without funds, the mayor's committee resigned their positions. The Community building, formerly open during the week, is in use only on Saturday nights for the service men's dances.
Discussion followed the speech, and Jean Brownice, College senior; and Clarence Engle, College junior, volunteered to present the views of the organizations to the mayor.
Hill Representatives Attend Meeting of Council of Women
Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, Miss Olga Hoesley, associate professor of home economics, and Miss Helen Wagstaff, secretary of the bureau of general information, spent yesterday in Topeka attending the annual meeting of the Kansas Council of Women.
The council is made up of past and present presidents of all women's organizations in the state and deans of women of colleges and universities in the state.
Miss Meguiar stated that the purpose of the meeting is to pool efforts of the various organizations represented to some intelligent and concerted action.
Moreau Heads Oral Examiners
Dean F. J. Moreau, of the School of Law, recently announced that he is chairman of a committee which conducted oral examinations for 20 lawyers, January 12, 13, and 14, in Topeka and Wichita.
This committee of the Kansas Board of Legal Examiners is a newly created branch of the federal civil service for the purpose of giving oral examinations to lawyers wishing to secure federal jobs. Mr. W. E. Stanley, Wichita, attorney, and Justice Harry K. Allen, of Topeka are the other members of this committee.
These 26 lawyers had already taken their written civil service examinations last Sept. 26. Austin W. Cowan, of Wichita, served on the board in place of Mr. Stanley who was unable to attend the examinations.
Receipts from the drive to collect money to maintain the Jayhawk Nursery, University project in England, have gone over the $1300 mark, according to Dr. A. J. Mix, chairman of the committee in charge of the drive. The committee is considering presenting the Faculty Follies again this year in concession with the drive, but as yet no definite plans have been made.

Tin Drive Going Well In Lawrence
Response to the tin salvage drive being conducted in Lawrence and on the Hill has so far been very satisfactory, John Skie, local bottling works proprieter, said yesterday. Mr. Skie is in charge of the tin can collection from business places downtown and from organized houses on the Hill.
"Collection from organized houses will be made every Saturday. Houses wishing to contribute to the drive should put their tin cans out each Saturday where they may be picked up by the collectors," Mr. Skie announced.
All cans collected, except number 10 (gallon size) fruit juice and vegetable cans, will be taken to the tin shredding plant in Kansas City. Bottle caps for Mr. Skie's company will be made from the number 10 cans. In the Kansas City plant the cans are put through the shredding process. By means of this process a great amount of copper, a material vital to the war effort, is salvaged. Mr. Skie explained.
"Ample proof that response to the drive has been good is the community tin pile on the east side of Vermont street in the 700 block, which already covers an area as large as any of the business places in town." Mr. Skie pointed out.

Ancient Beads
Two strands of ancient Egyptian iridescent stone beads are on display in the glass room of the Spooner-Thayer museum. The beads are dated 200 B.C. They are highly colored, with blue predominating, and are shaped irregularly. The Egyptian stone beads are among the oldest exhibits in the museum.
Stone beads originated in passages of the world from the desire of savage people to ornament themselves. According to connoisseurs of beads, savages collected colored stones, pebbles, and shells which were so shaped that they could be suspended from the body. Later, the ancient men pierced soft stones. By transition, stones were smoothed by attrition, and some time later, they were cut and polished. The earliest known stone beads were usually opaque.
