Try Students In District Court Monday
John M. Claflin, c'40, and Robert Palmer are slated to appear before Judge Hugh Means as the May term of Douglas county district has its first session Monday morning.
The state charges Clafin with four counts of arson in connection with the fires at the Phi Delta Theta house last fall, and Palmer, a former graduate student of the University, with possession of intoxicating liquor. Clafin's trial has been set for Monday, June 17, and Palmer is scheduled to appear next Wednesday, but both cases will be subject to a change in schedule when Judge Means arranges the criminal docket Monday morning.
Reuben Brown, c'42. who faces charges of burglary in connection with a theft at the Holyfield Music company, will also appear at the arrangement Monday but he is not listed on the docket. Beach indicated that the felony charge against the 21-year-old Negro youth might be dropped.
The jury has been instructed to appear Tuesday morning.
County Attorney Milton P. Beach said yesterday that he expected to try five cases in the May term. Besides the Palmer and Claflin cases, Raymond Phelps, charged with manslaughter, and Fred Reynolds, who faces charges of violation of a state board of health regulation in the sale of milk, are listed on the docket. Beach indicated that he expected Lewis Troy, charged with first degree murder, to enter a guilty plea to manslaughter.
The civil cases will not be set until later.
Dr. "Phog" Allen was the speaker at a sales council meeting of the American Dairies association yesterday in Kansas City, Mo. James H. DeCourse is chairman of the meeting.

The words to the new song are as follows:
Verse
The crimson prairie sunset and the Kansas sky of blue
Emblazon in all their glory the banner of old K.U.
O'er Kaw and Wakarusa valtteys swept with gold
Come, every loyal Kansas heart
so brave, and true.
so brave and true,
Come, stand beneath the elms of
Oread of old
And sing a tender song of love for Kanssag U.
Chorus
We'll be loyal sons and daughters And we pledge our devotion true To thee, noble Alma Mater All hail to the Crimson and Blue The banner of old K.U.
Farmer Goes---the speakers of evening, who were Farmer, new president, Bob McKay. b'40, the defeated presidential candidate who automatically becomes representative-at-large, and Chancellor Deane W. Malott, the main speaker of the evening. The keynote of both Farmer's and McKay's speeches, as well as of Mullen's resignation speech, was to urge the new council to forget party lines and work for the betterment of the University as a whole.
The Chancellor jokingly spoke of his three votes for president during the last election, and said the reason for not getting more was because of "lack of campaign facilities." He pointed out the usefulness of student government and accomplishments of the M.S.C. during the past year.
Guests at the banquet included Mr. Henry Werner, adviser of men. Professors Stene and Maddox, faculty constitutional advisers, Bob Marietta, c'40, and Seth Gray, b'41, presidents of the P.S.G.L. and Pachacamac poetics respectively, Raymond Nichols, Chancellor's secretary, and representatives of the Daily Kansan.
Bean Rations Are Cut For R.O.T.C. Barbecue
The annual R.O.T.C. barbecue, according to Sgt. Wm. Kolldender, has been set for May 22, and will be "bigger and better than ever except for an attempt to economize on the number of beans that will be served." Always before, Kolldender says, they have served no less than 9,999 beans, but this time the number will be cut down to 9,998.
Beginning at 4:30 the infantry unit and the coast artillery corps will march to the football field in Memorial stadium for the presentation of the year's medals and awards. The barbecue will follow the parade.

330 Attend—
Climax to a day's festivities on the campus for the parents, the banquet provided an excellent opportunity for them to meet the new executive who rides at the helm of the University their children attend. Chancellor Malott greeted personally almost every one of the fathers and mothers who were present at the dinner as they passed through the main lobby of the Memorial Union building.
A novel idea this year was the dispensing of ribbons to the parents, one type bearing the words, "K.U. Mother." and the other reading, "K.U. Father." The school colors were used in the ribbons.
For entertainment the parents were treated to vocal numbers by a women's sextet and trio, and the Men's Glee Club.
The presentation of prizes was by C. H. Mullen, c'40.
Department of French Receives Book From France
Wm. H. Shoemaker, professor of romance languages, has received a book from the French government to be presented to the most outstanding student in the department of French this year.
The title of the book is Des Paysages de France, written by Jean Bonnerot, and is said to be an authoritative study of French landscapes. It contains many illustrations and is autographed by M. Rene Weiller of the French council who is in Chicago.
This is the second successive year the language department has received the French scholarship award. Last year's prize book went to Rosemary Jones, c'41. The choice of the winner is left to faculty members of the department.

Green Talks on Curves To Math Students
A square block in a round hole! Mathematics students present a lecture on "Curves of Constant Width" given by Fatricia Green, c'42, at Thursday's meeting of the Mathematics club were astonished to discover that bearings needn't be round, and hurried off to see if this startling fact had been duly recorded in their handbook on mechanisms.
Miss Green demonstrated a number of constructions for constant curves and exhibited several models and drawings. One model demonstrated that it is possible to have a shaft turn without play in a square bearing. Another surprising model proved that the rollers used for moving heavy objects need not have a circular cross section.
