UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
FIVE HUNDRED ANSWER CALL OF GUN AND HOE
Ranks of University Have Been Depleted of Nearly One- Fourth of Students
More than five hundred students have withdrawn from the University to serve their country in one capacity or another. The college, with the largest enrollment of all of the schools had lost 434 students up to May 4. The School of Medicine has enrolled more than 100 students the War Department to retain students needed for skilled medic men in the war.
The School of Engineering lost 96 men in withdrawals for all sorts of war work. The School of Law is next with 54 withdrawals, while the School of Medicine four, and the School of Pharmacy seven. These figures are to May 4.
Many students have gone into Company M, the University company, or H, the down town organization, while some have gone home and joined military units in their home town. Approximately ten per cent of the men have gone into the regular army. The School of Medicine at Rosedale lost seven men from the present senior class.
Some of the men have left school to work in place of enlisted men. One student withdrew to do army Y. M. C. A. work. Several of the engineers have withdrawn to take the full course in munitions making and the other shop courses. Many left work in the reservoirs, repairing others like University take or prepare to take examinations for officers in the regular army.
Dean Templin has received many letters from the better class of farmers over the state protesting against the great number of farm workers in the military unit when those places could better or just as well have been filled by city boys or men. They consider it a great loss to them because they depend to a great extent upon their young boys to handle the huge amount of labor that is not able to harvest the crop if the present exodus continues and they feel that ordinary labor will not fill the places left by the young farmers.

MANY JOBS FOR STUDENTS
Secretary Wedell Does Not Like Way Men Give Up Work Near End of Term
There are many jobs waiting at the University Y. M. C. A. Mr. Wedll said he had table waiting, stenographic, dishwashing and odd jobs.
There has been a great deal of complaint about the students for whom the Y. M. C. A. has found work, quitting their jobs during the last month of school, or when they could see their teacher in class without working. This brings about considerable confusion and loss for those who employ the students.
The Y. M. C. A. has very strong feelings with regard to the men who throw up their jobs when people have depended on' them. The names of those who have thrown up their jobs will be put on the black list unless they come in and offer a good excuse for leaving. These men who have not sufficient excuses, will have difficulty in getting jobs in the future.

SUMMER SESSION AT OREAD HIGH SCHOOL
Many Teachers Desire Practical Training During Summer Months
Summer Session Students
The Oread Training School will open its first summer session June 14. This new department of the school comes in response to a growing demand for the training work of teachers to be extended into the school system. The recognition that has been given the graduates from the School of Education, by the school boards and superintendents in the State, because of the fact that they have had actual experience in teaching has brought about a rapid development in their equipment, courses of study, and methods or administration have been brought to a high standard.
High school students find the very best of opportunities in the Training School for doing good thorough work in all lines of work, the spirit of teamwork is genuinely appreciated and wholesome. The Student Government Association and General Assembly are unique features of student participation in the life of the school, and most importantly invited to visit the Oread Building and the School at any time.
Classes in practically all of the regular lines of high school work will be offered according to the enrollment. Each student will be limit-recite for double periods so that full half units of credit will be completed in the nine weeks. All recitations will be held in the foreroom. The laboratory work in science will be limited to four regular laboratory days twice a week. The tuition will be five dollars for the term. All of the work will be

COMPANY M PHONOGRAPH
AGAIN GRINDS OUT TUNES
Some of the records are rather scarred by their travels and wear, and do not sound quite as well as they once did. But the Company M boys like them anyway, because all of the veneer has rubbed off and only the real stuff is left. Then there are some new records, but somehow, the boys think, they sound rather out of place on the old Company machine.
