News and Views from Other Colleges
Sixty-four percent of the students at Washburn Municipal University, of Topeka, are employed while attending school, according to the director of the employment office. The Ichabods are working in offices and downtown stores as well as hotels, soda fountains and many other businesses. And, there is a lot more work he had for collegians who want it.
It's Alpha week at Los Angeles City College. The purpose is to orient the incoming class into the ways of the college and allow the underclassmen to meet the upperclassmen and vice versa. The price for the activities is the price of a "dink," worn by new men. Among the social events planned for the week is a free men's spaghetti feed.
Come spring, and the students at the University of Nebraska will be moving into the Love Memorial Library. Window panes were going into the library early in September, and the building is already impressive enough to indicate that it and its tower will dominate the campus in the next few years. The library will have a student lounge and an auditorium as well as regular library rooms.

Many Canadians at War
Four thousand three hundred recent graduates of the University of Toronto (Canada) are in active service, according to The Varsity, university newspaper. War-time leave has been granted 183 staff members. Eleven hundred former members of the C.O.T.C. now hold commissions in the Canadian forces. Students who failed last May are permitted to reregister if university regulations allow, which squelched a report on the Toronto campus that if you failed, you went into military service.
Student car owners at the University of North Carolina will obey regulations or their cars will be ordered off the campus. Approximately 85 student autos are now on the campus. It is estimated that 75 will be left on the campus late this quarter.
The first University women's tea sponsored by the Women's Self-Governing Association will be given from 3 to 5 p.m. tomorrow in the dining room of the department of home economics, in the basement of Fraser hall.
Tar Heelers Ghey—or Wark
Students needing cars for employment, physical disability, or long drives from home to campus will be allowed to keep their vehicles. Drivers who continually violate Chapel Hill laws or fail to properly register their autos will be reported to a five-man council who will decide whether the cars stay or go.

Hostess for the tea tomorrow will Miller hall. Mrs. S. M. Stayton, housemother at Miller hall, will preside at the tea table.
Alumnus Names Baby From Student Directory
What to name the baby may present a real problem to many parents, but in naming their second son Mr. and Mrs. Otto Epp of Tribune. discovered a unique and satisfactory method.
Mr. Epp, who was graduated from the University in 1932, used his 1931 and '32 student directory to suggest names. The name chosen from the directory was Dan Milton.
Epp is editor of the Greely County Republican at Tribune.
BIG SIX TEAMS---reported is at Iowa State where a total of 102 men are working out under coach Clayton Sutherland. The freshman coach has indicated that the Cyclone frog squad will not be cut this fall, but that the entire team will be allowed to attend the practice sessions throughout the season.
(continued from page four) were completely outclassed by the Longhorns. Kansas, in losing to Marquette, looked as good as doopers had expected, and lost little, if any, prestige in the defeat.
Tigers Favored
Missouri will invade the Big Seven territory this week, as the Tigers tangle with the University of Colorado Buffaloes. Colorado, with one victory already under its belt, might show the Tigers their first close game. However, it is hardly likely they will beat the Big Six team, because much of their backfield talent is sophmore. The Buffalo line, however, is big and smart, and Bob Steuber and mates have trouble cutting through it on their tremendous off-tackle smashes.
Cyclones Seek Revenge
Nebraska and Iowa State will shove the Big Six off to a good start, when they clash Saturday at Lincoln. Preseason dope would have given the Cornhuskers a big edge in the contest. However, off last week's showing, Nebraska will take the field little better than an even choice against the zippy Iowa State attack.
Cyclones Seek Revenge Should Nebraska backs like Al Zikmund and Howard Debus find themselves, the Cornhuskers may yet become a squad to be reckoned with in the Big Six. Royal Llohry, Paul Darling, Bill Earger, Claire Ethington, and their Cycle mates, however, have already wrapped up one victory, and will be hot after a conference win to avenge last year's 14 to 0 loss at the hands of the Cornhuskers. The game shapes up as one of Saturday's closest contests.
Oklahoma will for the second straight week meet a strong state rival, Tulsa University. The Golden Hurricanes figure to give the Sooners everything they can handle, and probably will take the field slight favorites. Backs like the Hurricanes' Dobbs brothers and Cal Purdin are always dangerous. Oklahoma coach Dewey Luster is hoping, however, that the Sooners will find themselves this week, and live up to the preseason expectations of some of their followers.
Aggies Meet Army Kansas State will meet the Ft. Riley Centaurs, fresh from a victory last week over College of Emporia. The Aggies will have to keep their eyes on Ben Sheridan, soldier star and former Notre Dame ace.
Gwinn Henry's Kansas Jayhawker will try to make it two-in-a-row for Big Six squads over the Denver University Pioneers. Denver, using freshmen this year, battled Iowa State all the way last week, and will be no easy-pickings for the Jayhawks Friday night at the Rocky Mountain city. The war has not, as yet, affected the influx of athletes to the colleges of the Big Six, figures recently released at the Universities show.
Already four Big Six schools have reported unusually large freshman turnouts.
The Cyclone fsh include representatives from five states.
Largest freshman team yet to be
At Nebraska, 75 freshmen have reported for grid duty. Still more cornhusker frosh are expected to join the squad this week..
At Oklahoma this fall, a freshman schedule has been completed for the first time in many years. The Sooner freshmen are scheduled to compete against nearby service teams. Indication are that this year's crop of Sooner first-year men is above average.
fine prospects for varsity positions next fall, freshmen coaches point out.
Meanwhile here at Memorial Stadium, coach Wayne Repogle has been working out daily with the largest frosh squad he has ever handled in his three-year tenure here. Included in the Jayhawk freshmen are several

story about a campus bookstore The bill calling for a University book-
store was passed by the Men's Student Council last night . . . if the bill is successful in passing through the hands of the Chancellor and the W. S. G. A., the bookstore will be established next fall or as soon afterward as possible."
Reporting on previous attempts to start a campus bookstore, the Kansas states that several years before students had voted in a referendum to establish the store, "but they turned down the proposition of buying shares of stock, amounting to $5 a share, in the business, or acfor the maintenance of the book-cepting a general tax on all students store"

Power of the press is illustrated in two articles contained in the "Child Labor" envelope. On Jan. 8, 1935, the Kansan urged the convening legislature to pass the child labor amendment to the federal cnstitution. Clipping just above this is datelined Feb. 26, 1937, and says, "Child Labor Measure Gets Kansas Approval."
Back toward the end of the drawer is an envelope headed "Churchill, Winston, English Diplomat." Inside is a review of a book Mr. Churchill had just completed and we quote from the book, as quoted in the Kansan):
"The result of every (Allied) offensive was to leave us weaker and the Germans stronger. The Germans were defeated by an offensive, but it was their'own offensive, not that of the Allies." Food for thought in these 'second front' days.
