KU, Paris Weekends Similar
Bv Martha Moser
The students at KU and La Sorbonne, the University in Paris, may differ in language and customs, but you can bet that human nature endows them with the same ideas of how to enjoy a weekend.
Lilliane Chatignoux and Jocelyne Le Guet, Paris graduate students, agree that they can spend their weekends at KU in about the same
way as they did in Paris. Miss Le Guet goes to the movies or for a drive while Miss Chatignoux usually spends weekend evenings at a party or dance.

"Till miss being home . . . "
There is a difference, though, between the social functions at KU and in Paris, they said.
"THE UNIVERSITY in Paris doesn't care for the social life of the students," Miss Chatignoux said. "Therefore, social functions are not organized as they are here."

She said that when students go to a party or a dance in Paris, they go to small nightclubs designed especially for students. These have a student orchestra and are called "les caves" the caves.
"They are downstairs in buildings," Miss Chatignoux said, "and they look like cellars."

JOCELYNE LE GUET spent many of her weekend evenings in Paris at La Comiedie Francaise, a theater presenting classical plays. She also went to the Latin Quarter often to see foreign movies in the original version.
"Sometimes." Miss Le Guet said, "on Saturday afternoons I'd go for a drive with my family. We would take a picnic lunch and eat in the woods."

Miss Le Guet and Miss Chatignoux will spend their Christmas weekend in Mexico City with the KU International Club.
"I'll miss being home," Miss
Chatignoux said wistfully.
"CHRISTMAS in France is a family feast. Most students go skiing in the mountains at Christmas time, but they all try to be home on Christmas day."
She said that in France it was the custom at Christmas time to put one's shoes in front of the chimney. In the night le Pere Noel, Santa Claus, comes and puts gifts in them.
On Christmas day in Miss Le Guet's home, the family puts gifts in each others plates before Christmas dinner, Le Reveillon.

we eat," Miss Le Guet said. "Our dinner includes turkey stuffed with chestnuts, and later, homemade ice cream."
The custom of mistletoe is saved until New Years, the girls said.
Oh, Oh - Secret Car Not Secret Anymore
FONTANA. Calif. — (UPI)—Police chief Henry A. Young posed proudly for newspaper photographers yesterday standing by a new police car, slated for undercover work, that has no distinguishing markings to identify it.
The photos clearly showed the undercover car's license plate number.
Ringed Moon Baffles Many
The wide cloud circle around the moon had students craning their necks skward last night
Ferdinand C. Bates, assistant professor of aeronautical engineering, said many students wondered what caused the phenomenon. It is caused by moonlight passing through crystalline cirrus clouds, he explained.
"It goes along with refraction phenomena such as sun dogs, which occur frequently in the arctic," Prof. Bates said.
"It can precede a low pressure center, but usually is not too significant. The clear night allowed it to be seen with clarity."
Vocation - Career Meet Set Saturday
Personal interviews and group discussions on vocations abroad and in the United States will be offered to all students in the Vocation and Career Conference, Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Westminster Center.
William H. Henderson, specialist in In-service Training and Vocational Guidance, will be at the conference for personal interviews in addition to leading group discussions.

Bowling Team To Defend Trophy
The KU Varsity bowling team has seen no inter-school competition yet this year but plans to defend the traveling Big-Eight tournament trophy it won last year. This school year's Big Eight contest will probably be next spring at Nebraska University.
All Big Eight schools participated in last year's tournament except Iowa State and Oklahoma University.
Last year's record also included a win in the Kansas Bowling Conference against Kansas State, Wichita, Baker, and Washburn universities. With this win the Varsity team traveled to Boulder, Colo. for the InterRocky Mountain Collegeate competition. There Denver University beat KU, winning the title for the schools east of the Continental Divide.

The KU team will enter the Big-Eight, Kansas Conference and Inter-Rocky Mountain Collegiate competitions this year when definite tournament schedules are drawn up.
