Writers Clinic Helps 'Em Pass English Proficiency
"Our batting average in helping those students pass the English Proficiency examination who have failed at least once is about 85 percent," said John Lamb, instructor of English and head of the writing clinic. The clinic is held from 2 until 4 p.m. Monday through Friday in room 19, Strong Annex E.
The English department started the writing clinic three years ago to help students who were not enrolled in composition classes and who had failed the examination. Two instructors take charge of the clinic each semester. Mr. Lamb and Richard Moyer, instructor of English, are in charge this semester.
"Many students who need help do not come to the clinic until it is too late, and this is our main problem," Mr. Lamb said.
"The clinic has proven to be a success if the students will only spend the time needed. They are free to come and go when they please and when they feel they need help."
Inability to organize and difficulty in expression seem to be major problems for most students.
At the present the clinic is for those students who are not enrolled in composition classes. However, there may be a change in the future, Mr. Lamb said.

Bronze Jayhawk Being Designed
Designs for a bronze jayhawk, the gift of the class of 1956, are still in the planning stage. Richard D. Wintermute, field secretary for the alumni association, said today. "It is a long, slow process," he said.
Flden Tefft, assistant professor of design, is planning the designs, which he will give to the gift committee for approval. The plans specify jayhawk approximately four feet tall on a 2-foot pedestal.
It will be erected in front of Strong Hall, with the exact location to be decided later by the committee.
"It may be several years before the jayhawk is finished. The designs must be drawn, approved, molded in clay, cast in bronze, and so forth." Mr. Wintermote said.
Try Kansan Want Ads. Get Results.
The class left $2,500 for the gift, but because it is to be cast in bronze, the actual cost will be more, he said. He believes the University will supply the additional funds.
Jim B. Miller, 1958 graduate now with the Boy Scout of America in Kansas City, Kan., was chairman of the gift committee.

Papers, Tests, Book Equal 1 Tired Coed
With term papers to write, books to read and tests to take, one coed found herself forced to give up two nights of sleep for intensive study. One evening she consented to leave the books for an hour of socializing with her favorite friend.
During the evening, the young man noticed that his date had fallen asleep, and he whispered, "Mary, Mary, talk to me!"
The young woman yawned and then replied, "Don't wake me up, my alarm is set for eight."
Engineering Society Elects Four Officers
Foreign students are preparing for their spring festival even though they are faced with final week examinations.
"A tentative date for the festival has been set for April 27," said William R. Butler, assistant to the dean of men and assistant foreign student adviser. "However, we want to make it definite far enough in advance to have ample time for preparation," he said.
An annual feature on the campus, the foreign student festival gives American students a chance to study various cultures. Singing and dancing and other forms of entertainment and displayas of individual countries represented on the Campus are featured.
Mr. Butler also said plans have been made to take foreign students on an organized trip, probably during March, to the Kansas City industrial area.
Foreign students will also participate in the Little United Nations program in April. The Collegiate Council for the United Nations will
