tions, is one of the chief executives of the Cowles publishing company, owners of the Des Moines Register and Tribute, Look Magazine, the Minneapolis Star-Journal and Tribune, and four radio stations. Under Walters' direction, the Star—Journal eliminated its last competitor in May, 1941, when it absorbed the Times and the Tribune.
Of Walters, Time said: "He got his start as editor of an AEF newspaper in Italy with Adolphe Menjou and Robert Maynard Hutchins, now president of the University of Chicago."
"Mr. Walters is a newspaper man's newspaper man," says Prof. Elmer F. Beth. "He is a lively and able speaker, a man of ideas that really work, and one of the most successful working newspaper executives in the country. I think Kansas editors will agree with us that 'Stuffy' Walters is a man worth going miles to hear."

CASEY RIDES---in the School of Pharmacy, will lead the band onto the field to the tune of "And the Band Played On." There will be high stepping by the majorettes and baton play by the twirlers, Bill Sears and George Rhods.
To the tune of "Bring Me Back My Walkin' Cane," the band will form a topper hat and walking cane. For "The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze" there will be a giant beer mug formation.
"The Bowery" will be played as the band forms a huge heart. Then, as Casey and his blonde pedal around the field, the band will take shape as a bicycle and play "On a Bicycle Built for Two."
PERSEPHONE--id'y. Many small insignificant articles such as pitch fork handles, waffle irons, egg beaters, coffee pots, and tea kettles have been contributed. Where students got such articles is a matter of conjecture, but they are nevertheless welcome. Other pieces include: coffee cans, bread boxes, waste baskets, tin platters, trays, light bulbs, steel pipes, a scooter, two bed posts, and some steel curtain rods. In the meantime,
Persephone stands. brimming full scrap, probably feeling more useful than ever before.
Ford To Noble End
The red and yellow Ford, painted in the sorority colors, is elaborately decorated with signs. "Scrap the Japs," "Tokyo or bust," the sorority letters, are all dabbed on in white paint, while on the rear of the car, in a conspicuous place, is the sign, "The Noble End."
Last year seven members of the sorority bought the car, and, after a year of use, decided that Persephone should be sacrificed for the war effort. Donna Burkhead, Margaret Kreider, Gloria Brinkman, Virginia Britton, Nadine Fox, Martha Nearing and Bette Cobb were the proud owners who drafted the car into the war effort.
Governors Lay Wager
The Governor of Kansas and the Governor of Nebraska have wagered a $25 war bond, to be auctioned off at the Kansas-Nebraska game Oct. 31, that their state will collect the greatest amount of scrap. There is always a chance that Kansas might not win the football game from Nebraska; but the next best victory would be that of the $25 war bond.
