Mercury Hits 17 Below In Missouri-Kansas Area
Kansas City, (INS)—Missouri and Kansas today were still held in an icy grip of sub-zero weather with the thermometer going as low as 17 degrees below zero in both states.
The coldest spot in Kansas was at Ellis where the mercury hovered around the 17 below mark. Tarkio, Mo., also reported a reading of 17 below zero. The warmest area in Missouri was
in the southeast corner where it was 6 above at Malta and 3 above at Advance. It was the only section reporting above zero temperature. The "hotest" area in Kansas during the night was at Wichita where the temperature was at 10 below.
The weather bureau at Kansas City, while not making any long range predictions, promises only slow moderation. The extreme in that sense was at Goodland where the mercury climbed from 16 below to 7 below over night.
Other below zero temperature readings for the two state area include St. Joseph and Kirksville 15, Springfield 9, and Rolla, Mo. 10. In Kansas it ranged upward from 16 at Goodland and Phillipsburg to 15 at Chanute, 14 at Dodge City, and 13 at Topeka and Concordia. Light snow was general over the two state area.

New Courses Given In Sociology Group
Adjusting itself to the problems of wartime, the sociology department is offering two courses of a semi-popular nature this semester. They are "Social Reconstruction of the Post-War World," taught by Dr. Mabel Elliott, and "Peoples and Cultures of the Pacific," taught by Dr. Loren Eiseley.
Both courses are to be given at mid-afternoon hours so that off-campus persons as well as students may enroll. Sophomores as well as upper-classmen will be privileged to enroll.
Dr. Elliott's course will deal with plans for reconstruction being involved by various groups whose activities are best illustrated by the Beveridge report and by the report of the National Resources Planning Board. Major emphasis of these problems will involve a study of a more comprehensive security system, extension of health services to areas and groups lacking adequate medical care, organization of a nation-wide housing program, expansion of community recreation facilities, and provision for recreational adjustments.
Dr. Eiseley's course in the cultures and peoples of the Pacific has been changed with a view of making it more informative regarding the problems of war and reconstruction in that area. It will deal with economic activities, religious beliefs, and general culture patterns of peoples living in the South Pacific area.

Give Interviews For Insurance Jobs Tomorrow
Mr. H. S. Ferries, supervisor of the claims department of the Liberty Mutual Insurance company of Kansas City, will be in Lawrence tomorrow, to interview senior women who might be interested in responsible positions in the Claims department, Miss Marie Miller, assistant to the adviser of women, announced today. Interviews will be twenty minutes in length and any senior woman interested in this type of work is asked to consult Miss Miller as soon as possible.
"We hire only about one in sixty of the women interviewed," Mr. Ferries explained. "Our requirements are exacting; our standards are high; and we turn down many good women because they are not of the type, temperament, or trend of mind which we have learned give the greatest promise of success in our work."
An explanation of the work was also given by Mr. Ferries. "Women selected report at our home office in Boston," he continued, "and enter a six-weeks' training class, to be trained as adjusters and investigators of casualty insurance claims. They are, mainly, claims arising under automobile liability, general liability, workmen's compensation, and fidelity bond policies.
Trainees are reimbursed for the cost of their transportation from the point of hire to Boston. The starting salary and base pay is $1450 a year. The women are paid salaries while in

Suggests Uniforms For Teachers
University Reopened
Suggests Uniforms For Teachers A Yale professor suggests teachers be provided with "suitable uniforms or insignia of office" as an inducement to stick to their profession.
"The Red Cross has demonstrated the value of the psychological principle involved in such a device," said Prof. Clyde M. Hill, education department head at Yale, in an editorial in "School Management."
The American-endowed Yenching University, which the Japanese believed they destroyed at Peiping, has been reopened thousands of miles from the old campus, in the city of Chengu.
In addition to reporting to her for these interviews, Miss Miller also mentioned the need for students who can type and take shorthand. The work this year, she added, will be both regular and irregular. The class schedules should be filed at the Dean of Women's office immediately. Miss Miller explained that the demand for employees included household help, taking care of children, and working for meals.
