Big Weekend AheadMeans Crowded Library Tonight
Tonight is the time and Watson Library is the place, to get on the books and clearing up little details like past assignments and late papers or for more pressing matters such as exams that are to come to pass on the morrow.
These things must be taken care of tonight, for with the basketball game and varsity tomorrow and the Hobnail Hop and informal parties on Saturday there will be little time to
side track the mind between the leaves of text manuals over the weekend.

Announce Marriage Of Former Kansans
Announcement has been made of the marriage of Janey Row to Vernon C. F. Mahon. The ceremony took place Nov. 8, 1941 in Ft Leavenworth.

Picture Industry Bets on Comedies
Hollywood —(UP)— The motion picture industry is betting heavily on comedy for 1942.
The moviegoing public, it hopes, wants more humor than ever before and the producers are basing their plans on that thesis.
Already there are enough comedies ready for release or in production to permit every theater in the country to schedule more laugh-getting pictures than during any previous year.
Various slogans such as "Keep 'Em Flying" have been adapted in Hollywood to "Keep 'Em Laughing."
Heretofore the espionage theme has been treated with often-wearlsome solemnity. Even that is coming in for light treatment in one of the new pictures.
It is Paramount's "My Favorite Blonde" and all Bob Hope fans will understand immediately why this one won't be on the serious side.
Veronica Lake Is "Witch"
Producer-writer-director Preston Sturges is starting work on another which promises laughs, "The Palm Beach Story," starring Claudette Colbert, Joel McCrea, Mary Astor and Rudy Vallée.
Hope's chief foil in this one is blonde Madeleine Carroll.
Rosalind Russell and Fred Mac-Murray promise there will be no sadness in "Take a Letter. Darling." Bing Crosby is scheduled to star in the Irving Berlin musical, "Holiday Inn," in addition to "The Road to Morocco."
Dorothy Lamour will display both figure and comedy talents in "The Fleet's In," and Veronica Lake gets another shot at comedy in "I Married a Witch." She's the witch.
VISITS TOPEKA . .
Miss Margaret O'Briant, secretarial training instructor, was the weekend guest of Dr. Elizabeth Van Schaak in Topeka.
Lemoine Amerine Are Married
Denoise Lemoine and Dick Amerine were married last Monday night in Kansas City, Mo.
The couple left this week for San Diego, Calif., where Amerine, a lieutenant in the Marine Air Corps, has been transferred for duty. He has been in Lawrence for the last two weeks on leave from service. Mr. and Mrs. Amerine were engaged while attending the University of Kansas, the couple putting out a pin in the spring of 1939.
The bride who is from K. C., Mo, was graduated from the University in 1940. She is a member of Pi Beta Phi, and while in school was a member of the French Club, Women's Athletic Association and during her last year reigned as homecoming queen.
Amerine formerly of Lawrence and who was graduated from the University with an A.B. degree last year, was a varsity letter man and a member of the K-Club. He is a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity.
Dean Stockton Leads Business Discussion
Frank T. Stockton, dean of the School of Business, led a discussion on "Important Factors Affecting Business in Lawrence and What We Can Do to Meet the Situation" at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon Tuesday noon at the Eldridge hotel. Speakers were Burt Ober and Ship Winter.
After Stockton's talk local business men discussed conditions peculiar to this community. This is the first in a series of meetings in which ideas will be exchanged and a plan of action agreed upon to deal with the rapidly changing war economy.
A group display of artistic photographs of landscapes, buildings, and persons will be set up tomorrow in the lounge of the Memorial Union building.

The fashionable shoe for women next spring will be a step-in model with medium to low heels, and sandals with ankle straps. The colors will range from navy blue to neutral beige and gray.
Miss Lyman predicts a rosy future for the fashion business. Women will have extra money for clothing because of restrictions on the purchase of automobiles, refrigerators, tires and other materials of war. So it seems that shoes this
