announced new officers recently elected for next semester, are James Walker, president, Harry McClure, secretary, and Mike O'Donnell, freshman trainer.
Elmer A. Zilch, the Tumbling Tumbleweed of Journalism, has notified students in the department of journalism that he will be in Lawrence Jan. 26 for the yearly Zilch Dinner. The eccentric writer, inventor, and man of letters was unable to attend on the regularly scheduled date, Dec. 29, for reasons presumed to be a military secret, believed by military strategists to be connected with the campaign in North Africa.
Students in the department were partially consoled by the fact that Christmas vacation was extended to Dec. 30, and are continuing with their elaborate plans for greeting Zilch.

IMPROVED TIGERS--estimated at $125,000. Replacement will not be attempted until after the war because of the difficulty of obtaining priorities in necessary materials. The building was covered by insurance amounting to $84,000. A small amount of basketball equipment was salvaged, and most of the Elsie Nuzman Allen art collection was saved.

the championship.
George Edwards, Tiger coach, has dropped the old traditional mentor's modesty in early-season predictions, and claims that his boys are plenty good.
Fast Tiger Five
"Although they are inexperienced, the Tigers of 1943 will be bigger than they have been in a good many years," Edwards said, "and perhaps as fast as the championship Missouri clubs of 1939 and 1940. We have a fine chance to wind up in the first division of the conference."
Last year's freshman squad, from which most of the present team is recruited, claims to have defeated the varsity five twice last season in matched games.
Thornton Jenkins, who, according to Edwards, "may turn out to be the standout player in the conference this year," will start at one forward post, while Ed Matheny or Walt Robinson, aggressive ball-handler and good defensive player, will fill the other one.
Hahn a Rebounder
Mary Morrill, Kappa, is winner of her division, having defeated Pauline Schultz, Corbin hall, in the quarter-finals.
At the other guard position will be Earl Stark, captain of the five, who led the Tigers to victory against the Ft. Leonard Wood engineers last Saturday with seven field goals.

Miss Cheyney will play Margaret
Kreider, Chi Omega, to determine
the winner of Division I.
Orel Hahn, lanky rebound man from Flat River Junior College, is slated to begin at center, while Pleasant Smith, considered by Coach Edwards to be one of the best prospects on the squad, will start at guard. Smith reaches the 6-foot, 4-inch mark, and is the tallest man on the team.
The Tigers have split their first four games this season, winning from Missouri Valley college and Ft. Leonard Wood, and losing to Illinois and the Olathe Clippers. Following their game with Kansas, they will journey to Kansas City to play a return contest with Olathe. Next game for the Jayhawkers is one with Oklahoma to be played in Norman next Saturday.

Ft. Leavenworth (INS) — Lt. Gen. Joseph T. McNarey, deputy chief of staff, and a party of four officers were at Ft Leavenworth today conferring with Major General Karl Truesdell, commandant.
Fire at Baker Sunday Destroys Taylor Hall Gym
Baker University again lost their gymnasium when it burned to the ground Sunday afternoon. The basketball team, now homeless, has been offered the use of University of Kansas physical education facilities by University officials.
The fire started near the central heating plant which is located in Taylor Hall. Also destroyed was the domestic arts and science equipment, which was housed in the building.
Book Week Activities Gain Notice
Lawrence's observance of "National Book Week." received recognition in Publisher's Weekly, national trade journal for the book industry, as "a model for other communities throughout the United States."
The basketball team, champions of the Kansas conference, played Washburn at Topeka tonight and was scheduled to play Ottowa Friday night. University officials said the school's physical education facilities were overcrowded, but room would be made for the team from the neighboring school.
While the fire raged the student commission met to offer any assistance the students could give. Citizens of Baldwin responded to the appeal for gas stoves and heaters until a temporary heating system can be installed.
Classes In Frat Houses
Workmen labored all night to get gas connections into classrooms. Some classes are being held in fraternity and sorority houses. The Methodist church, near the campus, was also affected by the lack of heat.
Lawrence and Ottowa sent fire fighting equipment but were only able to prevent the blaze from spreading. The Lawrence fire department improvised a connection with a plug 1.000 feet from the building, and the Ottawa department pumped from a lake on the campus. Part of the task was to prevent an underground oil tank near the building from becoming too hot.
It was the second gymnasium on the campus to be destroyed by fire. The old gymnasium burned in 1907, shortly after Dr. F. C. Allen left the basketball coaching job at Baker to come to the University.
Damage at $125,000
The damage to Taylor Hall was
The Oct. 24 issue devotes several pages of text and illustrations on the observance of book week last year in the United States. Some book stores have parties to promote children's books as well as adult books. Marshall Field, in Chicago, endorses this method and Macy's in New York will devote more attention this year to its junior books section, "to the titles for older children on aviation and the heroes of this war."
At Wanamaker's, in Philadelphia,
"the children's book section is so big
so busy, and so well stocked that
every week is Book Week."
The December issue follows up with a page of commendation for this year's observance in Lawrence, showing two pictures of book displays made downtown during November.
This years enlarged program included 16 displays in the business district, more attention in city schools, additional cooperation from the University and participation of the Chamber of Commerce.
Window displays are featured at Weaver's and Allison-Armstrong's flower shop.
Book Week programs in Lawrence were directed by Mrs. Domenico Gagliardo.
The building also housed the Baldwin Epworth League Institute, attended by 800 to 1,000 youths each August. All the equipment of the Institute is lost, and is only partially covered by insurance.
Longer Life For Your Clothing
For economy's sake have your wardrobe cleaned often.
Dry cleaning removes the fine particles of dirt and grit in your clothing which cut the fibers of the goods thereby shortening the life of the material.

Traffic Violation Trials Postponed
Hearings of traffic violations committed on or after Tuesday, Dec. 22 until the end of the semester will be postponed until after the beginning of the second semester, student court members said today.
Some 30 cases were heard before the court Monday, Dec. 21, and the results of the hearings will be mailed to the defendants in the next day or two, Justice Oliver Hughes, first year law student, said. The remainder of the cases on the docket at that time and those which have been committed since then will be heard at the next meeting of the court. The postponement was made necessary because of the short period of time before finals.
Members of the student court which hears all traffic violation and smoking regulation infractions are: Chief Justice Chad Case, third year law; Art Black, business senior, Bob Barton; first year law; Jim Borders, second year law; and Hughes.
