May Re-Enter S.A.T.C.
Or Take Discharge
Many Men Expected to Take Advantage of Schooling at Government's Expense
Official notice has been received here from the headquarters of the Commission on Education and Special Training that the men who have gone from them to different officers' training camps will be given the option of being discharged from these camps and returning to a civilian status, or of being sent back here as members of the S. A. T. C.
F. J. Kelly, dean of the School of Education, is sending a letter to every one of these men informing him of this order so that all the men will be sure of being notified of the option that is open to them.
The military authorities at Camps Grant, Zachary Taylor, and Fort Monroe have not as yet notified the man there of this order and are keeping them in camp there as long as possible. For this reason the commission on education and special training advised that the authorities at the institutions from where these men have gone should notify them. The infantrymen at Camp MacArthur have been notified of this opportunity, and several have already planned to come back. It is predicted that, a large number of these men who have gone to academies' camp recently to take part in the return and offer to the S. A. T. C. here in order to obtain this year of college education at the government's expense. There will probably be, too, a few who will take their discharge from the army and return to college as civilians.
Dean Kelly said today he thought that ultimately the men left here in the S. A. T. C. would be given this same option of either remaining on government pay or being discharged as civilians.
"It is certainly my emphatic opinion that these men who are in here in the S. A. T. C. who care nothing about a college education and came here only in preference to being drafted and are anxious to get away to return to their former work, should surely be given that privilege," Dean Kelly said.

K.U. Graduate Marries Review of Reviews Editor
Miss Iris Calderhead, who was graduated from the University of Kansas in 1910, and who for a number of years, has been prominent in national suffrage circles, was married October 26, at Denver to John Brishane Walker, editor and publisher of the Review of Reviews.
Mrs. Walker was private secretary for her father, William A. Calderhead, when he represented the fifth district of Kansas in the national house of representatives. After being graduated from the University she taught school for a time.
Last year, Mrs. Walker came into notice as a member of the suffrage party which picketed the White House. The present year she has been taking an active part in the suffrage campaign in Colorado. Mr. and Mrs. Walker will reside in New York.

Members of Faculty Favor 1919 Jaywhaker As Memorial of War
To create interest and to get the men in the Student Army Training Corps back of the movement for the Peace Book, the 1919 Jayhawker of the University of Kansas, a canvass of the barracks will be made tonight to see how many men want their pictures in the year book. Every man at A. T. C. will be given an opportunity in the individual panel picture in this year. The actual work of taking pictures will begin at once.
"The Peace Book will be one of the best and most complete year's record the University ever has had," said Lynn N. Hershey, business manager. "We have retained artists in our book to look after the art section of the book, and the same high class work will characterize the whole book."
The Peace Book is not only being backed by the students, but the faculty and authorities of the University are eager that the Jawhawk be published this year because this has been one of the most memorable years in the history of the University.
"The 1919 Peace Book should be one of the most interesting and important works in Kansas," said David L. Patterson, donor to the College. "This has been the most

unique year in the history of the school, because the same conditions may never occur again. For this reason, it is most important that a Jayhawker be published. There is more material and a greater opportunity to make it an historical book than to make it a commercial book will be simple, however, in order to eliminate all unnecessary elaborateness in the time just following the war."
It is due the former students of the University of Kansas who have given their lives for their country in the great world war, that a Jayhawk, which will be a memorial to them, be published this year, according to George O. Foster, registrar of the University.
"About the only way that a complete record of the year may be kept," said Mr. Foster, "is by getting out a JahyawkBook, I hope that every man in the Student Army Training Corps will realize the importance of the book and will help make the movement a success."

Plymouth Jottings
To tell the honest truth, I am mighty glad to be back in Plymouth pulpit. I shall be still gladder if I can see a good many khaki uniforms in Plymouth news, and the faces of a good many K. U. young women greeting me from the congregation.
Plymouth pulpit has been a great pulpit in the past, and it is a real privilege to stand in it. But the past will do us no good in the present save as we prove worthy of it.
Plymouth stands for the Big things, the broad-minded, forward-looking things. Plymouth does not allow its minister to look at things in a small way. It expects him to have a prophetic vision of the things yet to be.
May I say to you frankly, you students and faculty of K. U., that the pastors of the Lawrence churches really want you in their congregations. They need the stimulating effect of your presence. A man stands up on his toes when he faces a university audience. I should like very much to see some of you at Plymouth on Sunday.
Yours very cordially,
ROSS W. SANDERSON,
Pastor of Plymouth Church
