Soft Leather Wanted For Aviators' Jackets
Kansas City Red Cross Makes Use of Material Put in Salvage Boxes
A use has been found for all the old leather which students will not want to take home with them. The salvage committee of the Kansas City Red Cross chapter is asking for all such articles for use in making wind proof jackets for men in the service.
The pieces of leather are sewed, "crazy quilt" fashion to a lining and are then covered with cloth, thus forming a tight inter-lining for winter coats. These garments are being made in the Kansas City work rooms of the Red Cross.
Miss Margaret Lynn asks that contributions be brought to the salvage boxes. A large bundle of glove tops had already been collected before this request was made. Miss Lynn said this this morning she thought if the students will respond an immense amount of leather can be collected.
The backs of leather gloves, the tops of leather shoes, worn leather pillow covers and leather manicure cases are suggestions of articles to be contributed.

Kansas Phi Gams First
Winners of Baker Trophy
The Kansas chapter of Phi Gamma Delta has been awarded the Newton D. Baker Social Service Cup, a trophy presented annually to the chapter of the fraternity which excels in religious, moral, and social service activities. The cup is named in honor of Newton D. Baker, Secretary of War, who is a Phi Gam. It was awarded this year for the first time, and the name of the Kansas chapter is the first to go on the cup.
Hall, and to the Student Friendship Fund, together with its war work, were other favorable factors. Seventy-eight Phi Gams from K. U. are now in the service. The Phi Gam service flag is one of the largest in Lawrence.
The loving cup, which was made by Tiffany's, is nineteen inches
across the bowl, and is a masterpiece of the silversmith's art. It arrived last week, and was one of the centers of attraction at the Phi Gam Parents' Day held yesterday at the chapter house. Chancellor and Mrs. Strong and their son, Frank, Junior, were guests of honor at the Parents' Day dinner.
Good scholarship, the maintenance of a homelike atmosphere around the fraternity house, and a general sound condition of the chapter's affairs and conduct are some of the things considered in awarding the cup. The prestige given the chapter by "Bmother" Ann Cahill, who has been with the Phi Gams for nine years, and who is known to two generations of Filis, was a big factor in obtaining the cup for the Kansas chapter. The local chapter's donations to the Lawrence Social Service

Attend the Summer Session!
The Order of the Day— "SPEED UP"
FROM our government comes the summon for munion makers to increase their output; for food manufacturers to hasten the tide of rations so necessary for our allies and troops abroad; for industry of every description to produce more, and in less time. It is the order of the day—SPEED UP!
Young men below the draft age, and young women of all ages, are an important factor in this policy of time conservation. You can follow the order of the day by attending the
K. U. SUMMER SESSION
and "speeding up" your college career. This manner of study forms a convenient, efficient plan of acquiring ten hours credit in its short session of ten weeks. Those attending the summer session for three consecutive summers will be able to complete their college course in three years instead of four! A year saved by less than six months summer study!
TWO SEPARATE TERMS Enroll in Either or Both!
First Session ... June 4 to July 12
Second Session ... July 15 to August 9
For further information see or address Director of Summer Session, Room 119, Fraser Hall, Lawrence, Kansas.
