Schools Enroll for Correspondence
Sixteen Kansas high schools have enrolled in courses of supervised correspondence study, and many others will enroll at the start of the new semester under the plan of the University to help schools complete half-unit subjects. Many small high schools would otherwise have to drop subjects, because many teachers will leave at mid-term.
An innovation in correspondence courses is the class in radio, which 14 students at St. John are taking under the supervision of Victor P. Hessler, Glen A. Richardson, and R. P. Stringham of the department of electrical engineering.
Commercial courses and preflight aeronautics are especially popular among high school students taking advantage of the University sponsored plan.
PRIORITIES DELAY----

planned to be twice as large, was designed to house geology, chemical engineering, petroleum engineering mining engineering, metallurgy, and astronomy. It was intended to be a research center as well as instructional building. Eventually the department of geology is to have the fourth floor and part of the third. The survey and the USGS are to be on the second with petroleum engineering. Chemical engineering is scheduled to occupy one of the wings. Mining and metallurgy, with their heavy machinery, will occupy the first floor and the basement.
Just how Lindley hall will be used during the war is not yet announced, although many war uses have been suggested.
WOODRUFF OUTLINES----
(continued from page one) seven semesters of college by July 1, 1943, he will be allowed to complete one semester more for graduation. Providing he has finished six, he will be allowed two additional semesters. Those students who have completed three, four, or five semesters will be allowed a maximum of seven semesters. Students credited with one or two semesters will be given a maximum of six semesters.
All V-5 enlistees in the navy air corps will be called to active duty in May to begin training regardless of academic status.
Final examinations are scheduled for Jan. 12 through the 15. Enrollment for the spring semester will be on Jan. 19, and classwork will begin Jan. 20.
Classes of Students Exempt
Men in the following classifications in colleges will not be called: premedics, junior and senior engineers, and upperclassmen majoring in chemistry, physics or bacteriology.
Senior ROTC students will be permitted to complete training under the new plan since they are candidates for second lieutenant commissions in the army.
WILL OFFER----

Trainees will be given instruction in one of the following aeronautical options, stress analysis, drafting, weight control, production illustration, production planning and control, inspection, and material control.
Trainees will be enrolled in the University in the same manner as all
Jayhawk Shelter for British
Response to the University's drive to collect funds to provide for the maintenance of the Jayhawk Nursery, University-sponsored project in England, has been slow, according to Dr. A. J. Mix, chairman of the local Save the Children committee.
"However, some individual subscriptions have been quite generous and are sincerely appreciated," Dr. Mix stated. Contributions from several of the organized houses on the Hill are expected in the near future, he said.
Kansas University is the only state university in the United States conducting such a campaign. Only two other colleges in the nation, Hamilton college and Randolph Macon college, maintain similar nurseries.
In an effort to intensify interest in the campaign, Lawrence high school students have made posters, which will be posted around the campus, Dr. Mix said.
Realey As Private ★★★
Writes on War
C. B. Realey, former professor of history, who was drafted into the army last summer, is working in the command school library at Ft. Leavenworth, where he is stationed.
Private Realey is helping to edit "the Military Review," a quarterly publication recognized as one of the leading military magazines in the country. The latest issue of the magazine contains an article written by Mr. Realey. The article, entitled, "The Second World War," summarizes the developments in the war up to the present time.
TICKET SELLOUT--other women students. They will receive hospitalization and will be eligible to attend regular University functions. Forty-four hours classroom and laboratory work per week will be required, four hours of which will be paid for as overtime.

According to Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, all women's houses will close at 12:30 a.m., and only women attending the New Year's Eve party and church parties with 1:30 closing hours will be allowed to stay out the extra hour.
Science Bulletins Tell of New Fossil Discoveries
Sutton Gets Promotion in WAAC
School at 7th & Louisiana St.
Lt. Geraldine Sutton, '39, now a member of the WAAC, has been promoted to first lieutenant. She is stationed in New Hampshire in public relations and recruiting work.
Three new University of Kansas Science Bulletins have come out recently presenting the facts of the new discoveries of fossil remains in Kansas.
Visitors welcome
"A New Chimaeroid Fish from the Niobrara Cretaceous of Logan County, Kansas" by Claude W. Hibbard, curator of the museum of vertebrate paleontology, presents a new ancestor to the elephant fish found in Kan- sas for the first time. Meade county, K
The specimen explained in this pamphlet has long been in the University of Kansas museum of vertebrate paleontology collection, and was recovered by H. T. Martin in cleaning a skeleton collected in Niobrara chalk. It was an unknown bone and has been identified by Mr. Hibbard as the movable head spine of a larger chimaeroid, or elephant fish, than has previously been found in cretaceous rock.
New Find for Kansas
Chimaeroids have never been found before in cretaceous rock in Kansas, although they have been found in cretaceous of New Jersey, Mississippi and Wyoming.

Meade county, Kansas. The interesting discovery in this pamphlet is the fact that a whole colony of these salamanders was found in the larva stage, even including adult specimens.
The author of this bulletin, Joe Tihen, graduated from the University in 1940 and was an assistant here in 1940-1941 in the department of zoology. He has taken several of the summer field trips, where he had an opportunity to study this colony of salamanders.
More Spade-foot Toads
Skeletons of toads and frogs put together by Dr. Taylor were fossilized in either river sand or silt, and the parts had been disassociated either prior to fossilization or during process of recovery from deposits by washing and sieving. The climate under which these specimens lived was probably similar to the climate of North Carolina.
"Extinct Toads and Frogs from the Upper Pliocene Deposits of Meade County, Kansas" by Edward H. Taylor, professor of zoology, contains the results of his work on identifying and classifying fossil remains. Two new spade-foot toads and nine frogs are typed.
