To Learn Bomb Protection
Precautions In Order
If the University campus were ever bombed, a minimum of damage would be done, primarily because of the efforts of Prof. G.W.Bradshaw, associate professor of civil engineering.
Professor Bradshaw is going to New York next week where he will spend two weeks concentrating on aerial bombardment protection. He will learn about the relation of aerial bombing to engineering planning and construction for both new and ex-

listing structures and utilities, and how to construct and operate bomb shelters.
Protective concealment and blackout requirements will be studied, drawing from the bombing experience of British cities. Professor Bradshaw also will be instructed in prevention of sabotage and coping with transportation and traffic problems.
The sessions at New York University will begin Feb. 16 and are provided especially to train instructors for later courses which they will offer in this subject at their own institutions under the engineering science management defense training program.
The men taking the course have been selected by the Federal Security Agency of the United States Office of Education. Fifty representatives from Universities throughout the country with strong departments of civil engineering were chosen to take the instruction.
To Take Special Course
The first week of the session will see engineers and public work commissioners attending, while the last

Unload Naval Fire On Jayhawk Five
BY CHUCK ELLIOTT Kansan Sports Editor
A red-hot All-American squad of basketball players from the Great Lakes Naval Training Station came out of the North with their guns loaded last night and spared nary a shell as they blasted the University of Kansas Jayhawkers down to a 53 to 37 defeat in the Municipal auditorium in Kansas City.

They were all good and it was evident from the start that the Kansans would have to play their best ball of the year to win the game. The Jayhawks probably thought so too but it didn't do them any good for they promptly proceeded to turn in their worst performance of the season. This doesn't detract from the Sailors greatness for as hot as they were last night it would have been difficult for any team in the country to topple them.
But Phog Allen's boys did play poorly. Their offense was pitifully weak, only 13 shots of 74 attempts at the basket being good for two points each. In contrast to this the Sailors hit 21 buckets out of 67 shots and therin lies the trouble. Most of it, that is, for it didn't matter after the scoring downfall that the team failed to exhibit any rebound punch or to hurry back on defense and meet the Navy players as they dribled down the court.
