FRIDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1942 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE THREE Social Front Quiet-- No Blackout Dates! All's quiet on the social front. Perhaps students are too busy studying for quizzes, or they are conserving money and energy for a big fling over Christmas or New Year's, or it's just coincidence, but few parties are scheduled this weekend. Tonight the ATO's and the AK Psi's, commerce fraternity. regular three-hour dances at their respective houses. Chi $ ^{ \textcircled{2}} $ Tonight the ATO's and the are having regular three-hour d Tomorrow evening Alpha Chi Sigma, chemistry fraternity, will entertain with a dinner dance; Triangle and Phi Pi's, medical fraternity, will each stage three-hour dances at their houses; and Westminster Foundation has planned their Christmas party. Westminster has specially invited the Presbyterian sailors on the Hill to the party, and has planned an earlier Forum meeting Sunday to accommodate their 9 o'clock closing hour. The Forum will begin at 7 in- stead of 7:30 this week. For every action there is a reaction. Almost simultaneously with the announcement of 1:30 a.m. closing hours New Year's Day came the news that Monday night, the night of the blackout, is to have 9:50 p.m. closing hours. Shucks!

No Coffee ★★★ Sleep and Diet Will Suffice ★ Probably the first thought that percolated through many a student's bean on hearing of the coffee scarcity was that the emergency could be met simply by diluting coffee with water. But those who experimented undoubtedly felt their taste buds revolting under the let-down. Restaurants and houses that tried this might have heard complaints such as the following: "My daily cup had no more body than a shadow, and less depth in taste than my gas tank." Another leads off with, "My morning cup, which really is my daily cup, had less aroma than a sponge and had a similar taste." The major consensus seems to be that the average coffee drinker prefers one good bracing cup of flavor a day instead of several cups of a spineless, weak-kneed concoction that couldn't convince any taste bud into believing it was a favorite drink. Tea For Finals One of two things will have to be done. Either we become tea totters or dring less coffee for the duration. No longer will coffee drinkers ask for fourths and fifths, but politely curb themselves after the first cup. Students will find it increasingly difficult when final week approaches, for coffee has long been a stamby for candle burners. Smoking might take the place of coffee for some, but the number it doesn't appeal to, will be forced to find a substitute. Some sound advice: eat more, apply yourself when studying and get a good eight hours sleep nightly, thus the coffee shortages will be solved.
