WOMEN ARE DRIVING Near Last Lap in Queenship Race MEN TO POLLS
Campus males will troop (willingly or otherwise) to the polls tomorrow and drop a bunch of dollies into ballot boxes.
When that's done five more males will take the paper dollies out of the boxes, count them, and the election of the University Valentine Queen will be over. $ ^{4} $
The woman whose picture, clipped from the Kansan, has been dropped into the ballot box the most times will get the title and national publicity in Life magazine as well. (Yes, lady, you can buy as many Kansan's as you want. Yes, they all have ballots in them.)
Polls will open at 9 a.m. in center Frank Strong hall. Men may vote (in person only) up to 5 p.m. When the Men's Student Council-Daily Kansan committee gets the votes tabulated, the results will be announced between halves of the Missouri basketball game tomorrow night. (Yes, lady, I'll get your Kansans in just a
minute.)
Sororities are planning big promotion schemes for their candidates today. The campaign started Monday night when supporters of Becky Tremblly, Kappa Alpha Theta, tossed handbills from the Hoch auditorium balcony at the basketball game. (No lady, I didn't necessarily say I was going to vote for her. I just said—)
Flynn to Discuss Isolation Tomorrow
No also-ran position is the runner-up for Valentine Queen. Second prize in the contest is $5 worth of tickets to Lawrence theaters, Stan Schwann, general manager of the theaters, has announced. (All right, lady. I'll vote any way you say. Just tell me your sisters name and—).
"Peace and War" will be the subject discussed by John T. Flynn, lecturer and author of "The Country Squire in the White House," at 3:30 tomorrow afternoon in Fraser theater.
Flynn is widely known as an isolationist with reference to the governmental policy of helping England in the present crisis. He has taken part in a series of debates over the country with anti-isolationists.
Later in the year, University officials expect to bring a speaker to the campus from the White Committee for Defending America by Aiding the Allies. In this way both sides of the war situation will be presented.
Flynn's appearance in this part of the country is sponsored by the America First Committee. The lecture will be open to the public without charge.
Pre-Law Students Hear Dean Moreau
F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law, spoke at a meeting of prelaw students this afternoon at 4:30 in Green hall. Dean Moreau emphasized the fact that the ability of the lawyer depends just as much upon the work done in the College as that done in the School of Law.
NUMBER 71
"It has been deemed advisable to discuss the subject in the light of modern developments and to give all those interested in law a chance to ask questions relative to their chosen profession," the law dean stated this morning.
Lawyers On Honor In Exams
A convocation to acquaint law students with the honor system, especially significant during the approaching week of final examinations, will be held at 10:30 tomorrow morning in Green Hall.
According to the system which will be explained tomorrow, each student is put entirely on his honor and any cheating is reported to an "honor" committee composed of Ernest Deines, president of the third year class, Milton Sullivant, president of the second year "laws," Milton Allen, freshman law president, Neal Hambleton, representing the school honor roll, and Eugene Ricketts, representative at large.
The influenza vaccine, which was recently developed by the Rockefeller institute, was given to the University to aid in the determination of its effectiveness.
"No more influenza vaccine will be given after 5 o'clock Thursday afternoon," Dr. Ralph L. Canuteson, director of the health service at Watkins Memorial hospital, announced today. "Response has been slow the past two days."
Stop Influenza Shots Tomorrow
Doctor Canuteson explained, "The vaccine is made up in lots of 55 doses and is good only six hours. Only 33 persons took the vaccine yesterday, which resulted in a loss of 22 doses."

Former Kansas Law Dean Dies In Ohio Hospital
Herschel W. Arant, former dean of the School of Law, died unexpectedly last night in a Columbus, Ohio, hospital where he had been taken for a kidney ailment. At the time of his death Arant held the position of judge of the sixth United States circuit court of appeals.
Unsettled and colder weather is forecast for Kansas tonight and tomorrow.
In the six years that Arant served as dean of the School of Law here, 1922 to 1928, he was a strong defender of the gridiron sport. Earlier he had been star football player at the University of Alabama. He was a member of the University athletic board and was a faculty representative in the old Missouri Valley conference.
WEATHER
From the University Arant went to Ohio State university as dean of the law school there. He was an active member of the American Bar Association.
He was widely respected in the legal profession, and one of his closest friends was Felix Frankfurter, justice of the United States supreme court. Arant was appointed to his post as judge of the Sixth United States circuit court of appeals in February, 1939, to fill a position created by Congress in 1937 in the sixth district, comprising Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky and Tennessee.
Former Dean Dies . . .
Arant was also a strong contender for the University chancellorship when the Kansas Board of Regents was picking a successor to Dr. E. H. Lindley.

Applications for enrollment in either the primary or secondary courses in the CAA instruction must be submitted to Earl D. Hay, professor of mechanical engineering and supervisor of the CAA training, by the end of this week or they will receive no consideration, Hay said this morning.
At the present Hay has received 90 applications for primary training and 60 applications for the secondary course. Of this number, 50 will take the primary training and 30 will continue their flight work.
Hay Announces CAA Deadline
Professor Hay said that the 53 students taking the primary course in ground training this semester would be given their final at 7:30 tonight to be supervised by a federal employee. The 21 members of
Engineers Served Lecture On Scientific Sleuthing
Replete with slides and monologue, W. O. Skousem, representative of the Kansas City division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, presented a highly entertaining program before 300 persons attending the engineering banquet in the ballroom of the Memorial Union last night. $ \textcircled{2} $
The slides shown by Skousem were of the technical laboratories of the F.B.I. in Washington, D.C. showing the "Scientific Methods of Crime Detection." Preceding the showing of the slides the K.U. Serenaders, under the direction of Lorenzo Fuller, sang Negro and Biblical spirituals and the all-engineer band led by Jimmy
Frederick J. Moreau, dean of the law school, presided as toastmaster and introduced the deans of the various schools of the university and their wives, many state officials from Topeka, and members of the Welding Conference committee which had met in the Union in the afternoon.

MSC Sets Up Check System On Hill Drivers
The Men's Student Council took one more step toward totalitarianism last night when the 15 members present set up a secret service unit to check on Hill parking violators.
The need for this regulation became apparent last week when 16 student violators were able to "squeeze out" of paying fines through the alibis which the Student Supreme Court had no evidence to refute.
William Hutchins Visits University
The Council first considered amending the present parking bill, but, after deciding that the action would absorb too much time, they delegated the new powers to the present parking committee.
To Check Every Ticket
William J. Hutchins, president emeritus of Berea college, Ky., paid a brief visit to the University of Kansas yesterday.
The committee will now check carefully every parking ticket issued on the Hill to present the evidence when the case comes up in court. Information will consist of pertinent information as to be description of the car, the owner, and driver of the car at the time of violation.
The amount of information contained on parking tickets, now considered too meager to prosecute the violators effectively, also will be increased, according to last night's action.
A report from Student Dance Manager Fred Litttooy showed a profit of $392 on the six dances held by the Council this semester. Biggest revenue producer, according to Litttooy's report, was the Freshman Frolic which netted a total of $300-$150 of which goes to the Council and $150 to the freshman class. Biggest loss among the Hill dances was the $80 figure of the Owl Screech Varsity.
Last night he was a guest at the engineering banquet where he gave a word of greeting.
Hutchins has made several contributions to the methods of education. It was through his guidance that Berea college became well known. An almost unique kind of school, the students work part of their time at tasks which tend to make the school self-supplying.
Hutchins is the father of Robert Maynard Hutchins, president of Chicago University, and is now associated with the Danforth foundation in St. Louis.
