Joint 'Y' Meeting Sunday Morning
The Y.M.C.A. and Y.W.C.A. cabinets for next year will hold a joint meeting in Henley house next Sunday at 9 a.m. They will discuss the subject "Why a Christian Association on the Campus?" the following Sunday, May 26, Miss Eda Paddock, executive secretary of the Y.W.C.A. and John J. O. Moore, executive secretary of the Y.M.C.A. will talk on the implications of a Christian community.
These meetings are being held as a foundation for next year's work in the two organizations. In conjunction with this preliminary work the several commission groups of the Y.M.C.A. and Y.W.C.A. have been meeting for the purpose of setting up general objectives for next year, choosing specific projects for the carrying out of these goals, and dividing the responsibilities of cabinet work among the several members.
The Missouri Tigers, who are resting in third place in the Big Six standings, clash with the Jayhawks here next Monday and Tuesday. Prospects are bright for three games instead of the two which were originally scheduled, because rain forced postponement of one contest at Columbia last month.

Peterson Gets Gold Medal
Perry Peterson, c'42, received a gold medal today from W. C. Vogh, president of the Kansas City Table Tennis League, for his outstanding playing in the Missouri Valley inter-city table tennis tournament held in Kansas City Sunday.
The medal was accompanied by a letter from Mr. Vogh, which commended Peterson on his excellent playing. It said in part:
"Although the Kansas University team was unfortunate enough to lose all its matches in the tournament all the members of that队 showed excellent cooperation." Peterson received the medal as the player of the greatest value to his team.
In announcing the award, Winford Ferry, c'40, chairman of intramural
activities, said that the gift was wholly unexpected. He believes that members of the team, although losers in the recent tournament, have gained valuable experience for next year's season. Matches have already been scheduled with four universities for next year: Kansas State College at Manhattan, Nebraska University, Kansas City University, and College of Emporia.
Those taking part in the tournament at Kansas City were: Perry
Peterson, c'42, Malcolm Black, l'42,
Charles Ham, ph'42, Shirley Irwin,
fa'sp, and Ellen Irwin, c'41.
News copy scrapbooks for the students' correspondent prize must be turned in at the Alumni office in the basement of Frank Strong hall by Saturday, Jim Surface, head of the Correspondents' Bureau, announced today. There will be fourteen final prizes.
IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE!!
Mrs. Landlady Students Are Planning For Summer School
More than 1,000 students will encamp about Mount Oread this summer for eight weeks of sports, fun, frolic and the incidental studies.
March winds still whistle through May blossoms, but the calendar "ain't liein' " and June is up the next block. Landladies are already pointing out the advantages of warm running water all day long, sunny southern exposures, a shower in the basement, and that cool
sleeping porch.
Soon the pool will open, wash pants will bloom, and shorts will be shorter.
May birds are winging, doorbells are ringing, blue skies are bringing summer school nearer.
