WOMEN ONLY When To Say "Prunes" Come On, Men
Let's say you're a first year girl. You aren't on your own stomping grounds anymore, and they do things differently here First, the men here (or is that splitting hairs?) differ considerably from those you played with in high school. Since you'll be on the defensive most of the time, it might be wise to develop some new techniques—the better to combat tactics much more offensive than those you got a taste of at home.
"To help you take the first few of the major hurdles, the Wagon herein offers several courses of action which you may

Death Comes to International Harvester Head
Beverly Hills, Cal., Oct. 17 —(UP) Relatives said today that funeral plans for Harold F. Mccormick had not been completed but that probably both services and burial would be in California.
McCormick, who built the international Harvester company into one of the world's largest farm implement maufacturers, died late yesterday of a cerebral hemorrhage. He was 69.
The son of the late Cyrus Hall McCormick, inventor of the reaper and founder of International Harvester, he actively managed the company's extensive operations until heart trouble forced his retirement several years ago. He still held the title of chairman of the board of directors, but his son, Fowler McCormick, as president of the firm, directed it.
McCormick's third wife and his former nurse whom he married three years ago, Aadah Wilson McCormick, was at his bedside.
Hill Geologist To Present Exhibit At Petroleum Meet
His first wife was Edith Rockefeller, daughter of the late John D. Rockefeller. They married in 1895 and were divorced in 1921. A year later he married opera singer Ganna Walska but, after spending a fortune sponsoring her career, he charged desertion and divorced her seven years later.
Jewett plans to leave Sunday, Oct. 19, for Tulsa. He intends to confer with several geologists and representatives of the Oklahoma Survey while there. If weather permits, he will study some geologic outcrops of that vicinity.
Representing the Kansas Geological Survey, J. Mark Jewett will have charge of an exhibit at the convention of the Independent Petroleum Association in Tulsa, Okla., Oct. 20-22. The meeting of petroleum geologists will be held in the Hotel Mayo.
UNITED PRESS U.S. Destroyer Hit; Mother After Army
National and International--between Fred Waring and the Merrymaacs, but we prefer to think we have our individual style, distinct from any other," said Peterson.

At last reports the Moscow radio stations were still broadcasting the regular programs, but there have been no direct reports received from Moscow correspondents for 24 hours.
The RAF continued its continental air raids with attacks on the Ruhr area and Duisberg.
Latest development in the Battle of the Atlantic was the successful attack of an unidentified submarine today on one of the United States Navy's newest destroyers, the U.S.S. Kearny.
The Kearny was attacked about 350 miles south and west of the coast of American-defended Iceland while engaged in Atlantic patrol duty. The damaged destroyer was still able to proceed under its own power, and the brief announcement by the navy did not indicate that there were any injuries among the ship's personnel.
NEW JAPANESE CABINET
NEW JAPANESE CABINET Across the Pacific in Japan, Emperor Hirohito called on the former Minister of War under Prince Konoye, Gen Hideki Tojo, to form a new cabinet.
In general it is believed that Tojo's government will follow a policy of watchful waiting with perhaps greater friendliness toward the United States.
The selection of Tojo to head up the new government is believed in some quarters to be a slap at Germany and a friendly gesture to the United States. The Japanese general has not been one of the militarists who has favored further aggressions toward the south, or aggressions against Russia.
GERMANS STILL ADVANCE Germany's armies were still pressing toward Moscow, and a report by the Vichy radio indicated that the Germans were already within 37 miles of the former Russian capital. Although the Russians say they are slowing the Germans down there is no claim that they have the German army stopped.
GERMANS STILL ADVANCE
Oddities of the Day---between Fred Waring and the Merrymaacs, but we prefer to think we have our individual style, distinct from any other," said Peterson.
At Fort Devens, Mass., the United States Army is in trouble with an irate mother. When she came to the camp to tell the nasty top-sergeant just why her sonnyboy couldn't be treated like other soldiers, she says the sergeant beat her and called her all manner of revolting names. Now the lady is demanding the sergeant be court-martialed—and she wants him court-martialled in New York so that it will save bus fare to the fort.
In Kansas City, Mo., a fleet-footed pedestrain chased a hit-and-run driver several blocks, but at last caught up with the car and had police arrest the driver whose car had run into him a few minutes earlier.
In the Netherlands Dutchmen who have lost their teeth since last July 22 are going to have to get along without false teeth until the Germans can think up some ersatz false teeth—false-false teeth.
New York reports that living costs have risen 8.1 per cent since the beginning of the European war.
A husband in Buffalo, N. Y., who asked damages from his wife because she failed to support him, and at the same time sought annulment of their marriage was told by the court that he couldn't "eat his cake and have it too." He didn't get damages, and he still has a wife.
Asbury college operates a mat and tread industry in which 25 students are employed.
A company in Utica, N. Y., has been producing cartridge cases so rapidly that the government has asked it to slow production down—maybe the government isn't planning to use bullets after all.

K.U. Smokestack Is Oread Landmark
But the chances are that there are several things that might be cleared up in your mind. See if
No matter whether the student be a freshman or a senior medic, one of the first acquaintances he made on the Hill was the smokestack. It might have been on a foggy morning when the huge hunk of concrete looked like a thin piece of pasteboard or it might have been on a sunny day when most any body would have envied its loftiness and its lordship over the Kaw valley.
these facts won't let a little sunshine in:
The smokestack is the fourth tallest structure in the state, is 247 feet high, and 18 feet under the surface. At the ground level, the stack is 18 feet in diameter, 14 feet in diameter on the inside. During a 30 mile an hour wind, it sways three inches.
Fifty-five gallons of paint are needed to give the tall structure one coating. It is cleaned once every two years
