Musem Collections Increase Yearly. Specimens Outnumber Those of Many Other Schools
"Our museums are increasing both in number and size," said H. T. Martin, curator of the Dyche museum, in speaking of the new collections for Dyche and the Industrial museum for the engineering department of the University seems to have had the desire to leave some trace of their work in the form of a museum. The University at present has about eight museums ranging in size from Dyche to the few papers in the journal
"Dyche did not always have the prominence on the campus it 'has now,' commented Mr. Martin, "I can remember when it was just a few specimens residing in Snow Hall. From those it has grown to a value of $30 million; some specimens of fish and reptiles preserved in liquid on the first floor. There are also a great many specimens of animals on the first floor which have no space for display. "The ground floor has a panorama display of North American animals mounted on an artificial habitat, representing the habitat, descriptives identify the displays. In the center of the pool, a pool contains gold fish, the only living thing in the porch.
"The Ornithological collections occupy the entire second floor. The collections have been gathered from all over the world. The Palæontabene and the Palæontabene collections form the displays of the third floor of Dyche. A high bone dinosaur is an art object. The fossil collection is very complex. The latest addition to the diorama is a block of stone, collected last summer, showing how the fossils look when they are found. The Entomology museum is abl> in Dyche. It contains o a thousand and

Professor Ise to Speak on Present Oil Situation
Professor Lee's student will be "Temper Dome and the Presi- Oil Situation." He has made a detailed study of the subject which is of great interest in Congressional circles. The meeting of the Women's Forum, Thursday afternoon will be the last of the year.
Profess. John F. Ise will lecture before the Women's Forum meeting Thursday at 4:30 p. m. in Fraser hall.

about $1500.
The next largest of the museums is the Geology museum now located on the second floor of Haworth hall. In the collections all of the rock formations and mineral formations of the world are represented. It contains thousand specimens. Some of the natural has been placed on the field trips taken every summer by the geologists.
Much different from the other museums with their smaller specimens in the Classical museum now in Fraser hall. "Our room is much too small," said Professor Wilcox, curator of the museum. "I hope we may have Spooner when it is abandoned as a library." The museum is one of the most precious pieces of the Greek and Roman statuary and a great amount of pictures.
The Fine Arts museum is composed mostly of the Thayer art collection which contains about 9,000 items. The museum also has the Brynwood collection. The most of the two collections is not on display.
The Botany, Journalism and Chemistry museums make the eight. The Botany herbarium housed in Snow ball is representative of the tora of the United States. The Journalism museum is common for papers of the Civil war and civil wars; its displays showing how pictures are printed in the newspapers. The Chemistry diaphy is located on the top floor of the Chemistry building. There are several cases of food products, a case of diatom locks of water from various areas and a case of chemicals. The University of Kansas is probably better equipped with museums than most universities.

High School Tennis Meet to Be May 29 and 31
The base of the Uncle Jimmy Memorial which is in front of Green hall projects a foot into the street. The north curb of the street will be moved flush with the base of the memorial and the south curb will be moved so that the street will be the same width as the new pavement, front of the Administration building, of the Administration so that an island will be formed of the ground north of Fraser hall. In the future it will not be necessary to walk around as walks and a drive will be put through the angular projection.

Students Give Recital With Varied Program of Organ Selections
"Sonata of Merkel," Feature o Last Night's Program, Well Received
The recital given last night at the First Baptist church by two senior students of pipe organ, Miss Marjorie Garlinghe and Miss Ruth Williams, both pupils of Prof. C. S Skilton of the School of Fine Arts was unusual in that it was the major recital of both students.
Well Received
Both performers showed careful schooling and were technically well equipped, according to Dean D. M. Swearthout of the School of Fine Arts.
The program which offered numbers from the old classic composers as well as modern writers gave a seldom opportunity for artistic rivalry and a variety of performances, did her best work in the "Second Symphony" from Widor. Miss Garlinghouse did her best work in "The Concert Overture from Faulkens with a spindle show of technique. A feature event came last summer that is off-the-board was the duet from the "Sonata at Merkel."

One man caused the world war and one man could have prevented the world war, according to Prof. Olin Templin, of the department of philosophy. He was not a king, president or philosopher. He was not the university of Kaisers, and Professor Templin accounts for him in this way.
K. U. Professor Could Have Prevented War
When he was studying at one of the universities in Berlin many years ago the opportunity came then to prevent the world war. The lesbian at that time had a popular wife with another and there was considerable agitation against him.
"I might have prevented the world war, but I wouldn't have been here to teach you," Professor Tempilin concluded.
One morning when Professor Tempilin was entering one of the large churches in Berlin a carriage drove up and the kaiser stepped out. They approached the church door from different angles but unable to enter. As Professor Tempilin stepped back to let the kaiser go in _first_ he admits the thought then entered his mind that there was an opportunity to put an end to the kaiser. The kaiser was a weak man and could not overcome power. But for some reason he was allowed to go unharmed.
Firebaugh Accepts Position Howard Firebaugh, c24, has accepted the position as head of the physical education department of the Dodge City High School. He will also be head coach of athletics.
Thoughts of Women Now Turn to Whims of Fashion Regarding Proper Summer Evening Gowns
(Written for the United Press)
New York, May 21—At present every woman is turning her thoughts toward the summer evening gown.
toward the summer evening gown.
There are three silhouettes which will be popular this season for evening wear. Firstly, there is the slender, tubular tullor w. well even used in sheer chiffons as well as in heavier materials.
Chiffon frocks are usually made over a contrasting or deep shade and they are often bordered about the hem with wide bands of marabou, orchid, or with flowers.
The bodice of these frocks is usually untrimmed, with simple round neckline and sleeveless. Fronds of crepe de chene beaded in soft colored beads also use the straight, tubular.
The second silhouette is the billowy one with the skirt trimmed with row after row of ounces or layer after layer of tulle. Soft, pastel shades are invariably used for such frocks, and yellow, rose, amethist and pink are favourable. These gowns are particularly attractive for women who naturally attractive for their and their simple, youthful lines make them to almost everyone.
Lace Used Lavishly
Lace Used Lavishly
In the case where narrow lace ruffles form the skirt, or might use rows of lace of different colors. One very lovely lace which uses tans has row upon row of yellow, green and brown lace placed upon the skirt. Another white frock adorns its arm with alternating layers of narrow black and white silk lace and the effect is very lovely.

The third silhouette is the soft clinging one, which terminates in a full flounce at the hem. The flounce is usually cut on the bins of the material to give a flat, illly edge. Again the flounce may be pleated to give the fluffy hem effect. Several models of black georgette or chiffon have their flouses trimmed 1 inch above the upper portion to give fluffiness. The upper portion of these frocks are invariably tubular in effect and are simply as to trim.
The flounce silhouette is decidedly feminine and alluring and one which many women will undoubtedly choose for the dinner or dance frock. When you wear it over a dress or any figure will find a gown quite becoming. Many a afternoon gowns of dresser type follow this silhouette adding sleeves which have wide, bias flouses beginning at the chest. This is very effective in black lace.
By following any one of these silhouettes one can not go wrong in the selection of the summer evening frock. Of course, none but the slender caft can attempt to wear the billowy frock with the tuxedo. The frock will look far better in the tubular frock, providing of course, that the garnier is cut to conceal rather than reveal the figure. Although many of the straight-lined tubular frocks have no beltline whatsoever, the garter is placed on a material placed at a low waistline where the weaver has a rounded figure.

Units
W.S.G.A. Adopts Group Organization for Aid of University Women
At a meeting o the Women's Student Government Association Tuesday evening it was definitely decided to adopt the group system of organization for the women of the University. This movement is the outgrowth of a meeting in 1963 of the council when they attended the recent conference at Columbia, Mo.
Kathleen O'Donnell at the meeting gave her list of special committees. Dean Hubbard was present and talked to the council members concerning the duties of their offices. Frances Edna Wright was elected by the council as representative to the Jayhawkier advisory council.
The group system as adopted by the council is for the purpose of allowing the University women to become better acquainted with one another. At first the city will be divided geographically into groups. Each group will be appointed to the House Presidents' Council. It is planned to make the social life of these groups interesting and vital.
Tressie talk and Helen Lowry were appointed to supervise the work of organization and to make arrangements for next year. They, with the advice of other members of the council, will appoint other women to head the individual groups. They ask that names of interested and competent non-organization women be submitted to them.
