Here on the Hill----
AGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY, MAY 22
Big Evenings In Library Put Stop To Social Life
If you except library dates and a hurried coke date through these nightly showers, social activities on the Hill have come to a dead end.
It takes the world's greatest baritone to bring us all out anymore—mostly just to se ife he really would appear after lo these two years. And then it takes "The Glory Road" to wake us up after we have fidgeted—tired and hot and restless—through all of the more serious selections.
Outside of that, an occasional house dinner for graduating seniors is the big social item of the week.

Bill Overton, first year law student, has been recently appointed manager of the Memorial Union fountain for the coming year. Every employee in the fountain will work directly under him.
Overton will succeed Bud Owens, business senior, as manager. He will take over his new duties June 1 for summer school duration, and then will resume them with the opening of school this fall.
He was selected to his new position by the Union Operating Committee composed of Miss Hermina Zipple, director of Memorial Union and food service; Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women; Henry Werner, adviser of men; Karl Klooz, bursar; and Prof. H. H. Lesar of the School of Law.
Between 800 and 1,200 people are served daily in the fountain, actthis year. Coke sales vary from 200 to 800 a day, depending on the day, the weather, and the social calendar. If it is a big weekend and
there are several parties in the ballroom, business is wonderful. If there are no parties and it is good picnic weather, waiters are likely to find time on their hands.
Finals make no appreciable difference in the sale of cokes, says Owens. A few people drink more cokes, but there is less social "jellying."
For Overton
Besides cokes, students may buy sandwiches, salads, and ice cream in the fountain. Menus are carefully selected so that there will be no competition with the Memorial Union cafeteria upstairs.
If the proposed new wing is added to the Memorial Union building, business is expected to be even better, as a dance floor will be an addition attraction to Hill jelly-ers.
Most students who buy ice cream have cones. Milkshakes and malts are sold to those valiant few who do not worry about "figgers." College students, says Owens, simply don't buy sodas or sundaes.
The second prize of $75 went to Mrs. Leonora Jensen, graduate of the University and law student, on her essay, "Christianity and Battles for Democracy."
Winners of the three awards offered in the Hattie Elizabeth Lewis prize essay contest on applied christianity were announced by the judging committee, today.
The $100 first prize was awarded to Lela E. Siebert, second year law student, for her essay, "Fading Horizons."
Siebert Wins Lewis Contest
The committee judging the essays included Seba Eldridge, professor of sociology, Siegfried Mickelson, assistant professor of journalism, and Elise NeuenSchwander, professor of romance languages.
Ed Price, Jr., college junior, received the third award of $50 for his essay entitled "Christianity and National Defense."
