Mrs. H. L. Smith Speaks To Future Newspaper Wome
Speaking to a group of potential women journalists, Mrs. H. L. Smith formerly with the New York Herald Tribune, related some of her experiences with prominent newspaper women of New York City when she became members of Theh Sigma Pi basketball team, Journal magazine at 4:30 yesterday afternoon in the sky patio of the Journalism building.
On the staff of the Herald Tribune, Mrs. Smith said most women writers are employed in the book-reviewers section. In this department are such prominent contemporary journalists as May Lumberbey and Jonathan Dettower both of whom have long records of service behind them.
"Get experience in the small town before you venture to New York," were Mrs. Smith's words of warning to women seeking to enter the newsroom and the value of a knowledge of typing and shorthand for women writers.
The value of willingness to attempt any kind of an assignment was Mrs. Smith's concluding point in her advice to her audience.

Journeyed forth on a summer day
To mix with their foes in a golfing
fray.
Four golfers bold from K.U.'s fold With temperatures ranging from hot to cold.
Poetry Corner--total. Three authorized parties are allowed to each fraternity and sorority, a year. The sororities usually choose an open house as one of theirs. Fraternity Thursday guest nights and sorority hour dances are not included. Most of the sororities host every fraternity over for an hour dance on a Thursday or Tuesday night.
The course was strange and planned to test
The prowess and skill of the golf world's best.
Their iron shots almost never wrong.
Their putts were true; their drives were long;
But our Kansas heroes were on their toes.
When scores were counted and day was done
Other outstanding parties not given by social fraternities were the engineers' Hob Nail Hop, the Military Ball, the Puff Pant Prom, and the LSA.'s Gay Lady Saloon dance and LIL Abner dance.
Up in Iowa, "Where the tall corn grows."

Believe Russia To Agree Soon
Queen Elizabeth arrived in Canada with a wardrobe consisting of 40 trunks. What about all those clothes? What about the Queen herself? Does she look like, does she dress like a queen? Student, faculty, and townpeople vary in their opinions on the subject.
Most men questioned didn't seem to know much about it. "All right, guess" was all they would say in most cases.
London, May 24 — (UP)—Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain told the house of commons today that he hoped it would be possible at an early date to reach a full agreement bringing Soviet Russia into the European security front.
"I believe that she has all the dignity, grace and poise of a sovereign defended an English professor.
★ Chamberloin Tells House Of Commons He Thinks United Front Forthcommin
The prime minister said that all relevant points of view between Russia and Britain had now been made clear in connection with a Soviet-French-British alliance which would be to completion of the united front.
University 'Experts' Discuss Queen's Clothes
Some further points, however must still be cleared up, he said. "But he added, 'I do not antipollution,' and he will give us any serious difficulty."
"I have every reason to hope that, as a result of proposals which his majesty's government is now in a position to make, the issues arising, that it will be found
"If I had all the money she has to spend on clothes, I bet I could look better," was the opinion voiced by one blonde.
Those who didn't were all students and women students at that.
"She must look like a queen, it's a cinch she doesn't look like anything else," said another.
Out of 12 people questioned on the library steps Saturday morning, six thought she had "what it takes." Six didn't.
Over his coffee cup at the DeLuxe Cafe Sunday morning a local merchant chuckled when he read that the Queen had brought 40 trunk-loads of clothing with her. "Look Joe, when our wives read this, they will never be satisfied" he muttered. At a new newspaper showing Sunday
will never be satisfied, he mutt:
At a newsreel showing Sunday
night of the reception given the King and his wife, an elderly matron remarked "She is everything a Queen should be."
A half-second later a man student on the second row filled his mouth with pop corn before saying, "I'm plenty glad that the girls around here don't wear their skirts that long."
And so the question still hangs where it began, in midair. Most girls think that the Queen should jibe with the current fashions of Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. Older people approve of the Queen and her apparel whole-heartedly. Men students don't really know. A majority o those questioned beg to be left out of it entirely.
"She doesn't have any style or chic in her clothes," protests part of the continent.
"But a queen doesn't have to have. She has something else. Besides the people of England seem to like it and she wants to decide," voices her defenders.
Since King George's opinion is final in every selection of the Queen's wardrobe, what Universities and particularly American universities decide could have little influence on Her Majesty. Queens, they say, can still decide a few things for themselves.
Final Examination Schedule--possible to reach a full agreement at an early date." Chamberlain said. His statement was taken to mean that this morning's ebbing meeting had approved a history-making change of policy which would permit an alliance with Soviet Russia, as demanded by the Moscow government in return for adherence to the so-called anti-aggression front. If such an alliance is concluded, as now seems certain, it would mean a powerful alignment against the possibility of future aggression by European totalitarian powers.

847 Mass.
Every school boy knows the story of Abraham Lincoln. Few college graduates take time to think of what odds he overcame to become President. In the above illustration the artist crystallizes the historical legend which was an important factor of Lincoln's growth. He studied persistently in the unsteady light from flames in a fire-place. Had Lincoln been of less-hardy mold his eyesight might have failed him at an early age. But his whole life was bound up in hardships—akin to the age.
In 1939 the luxuries of a luckier Lincoln are commonplace or necessity. Our light comes from lamps of scientific eye-ease construction. Through one medium, another product of the progress of our age, such former luxuries are made universal because they fall in a price range most of us can pay. That medium is advertising. Advertising is the blood of large scale production which allows low cost on goods.
Modern men may ride the crest of progress already made toward Shangri-Las only dreamed of by Lincolns.
