Military Tone Will Be Feature of Jayhawker This Year Say Editors
Book
ted, White and Blue Scheme Will Be Used Throughout
A book that will be as patriotic as a recruiting bulletin, is what Harry Morgan and Don Davis, editor and manager of the 1918 Jayhawker, say this year's annual will be. In addition to a new section on the military activities of the University the color scheme of red, white and blue will be carried throughout the book.
"There will be hardly a page in the entire book," said Morgan today, "that does not have some military touch. A red and blue border design will be used and military expressions and war phrases will be adapted in many of the snap shot pages.
"Even the vanity fair section is going to reck patriotism if our present plan is carried out. We intend to have a faint artistic portrayal of the Stars and Stripes for the background of the beauty pages."
Members of Company M and K. U. men in all other branches of military service will be given a prominent place in the book. Some excellent pictures of Company M and its officers have been taken for the annual and a collection of snap shots of K. U. soldiers is being made.

Meeting of American Geologists and Miners Held In St. Louis
K. U. Teachers Report Many Interesting Issues At Big Meet
Big Meet
A direct relation now exists between the geologist and the war, Professor Raymond C. Moore, of the Department of Geology, who returned yesterday from a meeting of the American Institute of Mining Engineers and the Association of State Geologists. St. Louis, said this morning, Professor A. C, Terrill reminded the mining engineers' meeting.
The meeting of state geologists was called to discuss supply of war minerals in the United States. Manganese, used in steel production, is a mineral acid for explosives, chromite, and magnesite, used in furnaces and smelters, are the most important of these. Formerly they were imported in large quantities from Europe and Asia. A ship of ships makes this impossible now.
Careful surveys have been made by the state geologists and detailed reports of the mineral resources of the states made to the federal geological survey. These are many deposits of pyrite and manganese in the United States which are available but which have never been worked. The only contribution Kansas can make to war minerals is pyrite. Now how has been discarded. These "coal braisons" can be utilized, geologists say.
The association recommended that President Wilson appoint a special administrator for war minerals who should have charge of the mine. They also recommended that he fix prices and arrange for their distribution.
More than 750 geologists and mining engineers attended the meeting. They visited the zinc fields of Kane County, Missouri at the close of the meeting.
Numerals Abdicate ABCs Take the Books
No, no. Gwendolyn! That "I" you just received is not a "one," it is a real i, and it does not signify that you have been the head of the class as it did last year.
The fact is, it stands for Insufficient and you will have to square it up with the Dean. In other words, it means "conditioned."
The new grades may be figured on a numerical basis as follows: A stands for tests from 93 to 100; B8 to 97; C, 79 to 87; D, 73 to 79; and then of course, F is for failure or flunk, as you please.
Last year many of the instructors complained that there was not enough flexibility in the system used and the new system was planned as a result. Presumably there was not enough latitude between a "con" and a "flunk."
