'Good Time Years' Vary
"Have a good time now," college students often hear their parents say while others add, Because you'll always look back on schooldays as your best years."
Five senior women, looking back on their school career, agreed with this, although most are looking forward to employment and a career after graduation. When asked what their happiest year was, three selected one of their college years.
Nancy O'Loughlan, Hays, cited her sophomore year as the "Best all around."
Carolynne Fisher of Lexington, Mass., also preferred her sophomore year which she called "Tops activity-wise."
"It was my first year at KU, and I had a real feeling of belonging," she said. "I thought I would be lost in such a large school, but I actually made more friends."
"I went to a junior college which was a much smaller school," she said. "It was friendly and I knew everyone. Afterwards, I came to KU to study art more seriously."
Miss O'Loughlin is majoring in elementary education, and plans to teach third grade students.
Miss Fisher plans to teach high school art either in the West or in South America.
Patricia Tripodi of St. Louis, Mo. believes her junior year in high school the "best in every way."
"I made good grades, and was in nearly every organization," she said. Also, I was attending a girls' academy, and for high school, I prefer a girls' school."
Contrary to the others, Miss Tripodi, a chemistry major, would rather remain in school.
"I'd like to learn more about my field," she said. "Four years really isn't very long."
Miss Tripodi hopes to do analytical work in a St. Louis laboratory after graduation.
Ann Murphy, Washington, D.C. found her junior year, her first at KU, the happiest.
"It was the first time I had really been on my own, and I learned to take responsibility, and to do things for myself." she said.
In spite of the "good time in college" Miss Murphy is looking forward to employment in the fashion illustration field.
"I hope to work in the advertising department of an Eastern department store," she said.
Nancy Vosseler of Ft. Leavenworth, who would just as soon continue in school, says the eighth grade was her most enjoyable year.
No GOP Decision On Appointments
TOPEKA — (UP) — Republican leaders today put off for one day an announcement about what action would be taken on former Gov. Fred Hall's controversial list of appointments.
Sen. Paul Wunsch said he would announce to a press conference Thursday whether the Senate will confirm Mr. Hall's list of appointments.
He conferred with Gov.-elect George Docking, but neither made any comment on the outcome of the conference. Legislative leaders said privately the Senate probably would not consider Hall's list, thus apparently leaving the way open for the GOP to bargain with Mr. Docking later.
TOPEKA —(UP)— Two persons were killed in a Butler County accident to raise the death toll on Kansas highways for the year to 16.
2 Deaths Raise 1957 Highway Total To 16
Troopers said Mrs. Olive G. Copeland, 65, Waukee, Iowa, and Elvin N. Johnson, 22, Admire, died in the two-car smashup on Route 54 in Butler yesterday. Three other persons in the two vehicles were injured.
There were 19 persons killed in traffic accidents at this time last year.
An estimated 10,600 persons perished in fires in the United States during 1956. This was 875 fewer than in 1955.
"It was the year I began having dates and going to parties. And to me it was a forerunner of high school and college social activities."
Miss Vosselier is uncertain about her future, but would like to get another degree in journalism or perhaps English.
Way Of Saving Water Described
A new method for evaporation control was explained today at the University of Kansas by Dr. Buell W. Beadle, who addressed the sanitary engineering conference on the subject, "Reservoir Evaporation Control."
The method is seen as a possible boon to Kansas, which annually loses more water through evaporation than is used for agricultural irrigation, industry and cities.
The 110 water superintendents chemists, city engineers and plant managers attending the conference heard Dr. Beadle, chairman of the department of chemistry and chemical engineering at the Southwest Research Institute, San Antonio, Tex., review the methods of reducing evaporation and explain the research being done on the monomolecular film method.
The monomolecular film method involves the use of a compound that will spread out over the surface of the water, in much the same way oil spreads over water. The compound must spread out to a thickness of only one molecule, but the molecules must be so tightly packed together that evaporation is greatly reduced. In addition, the compound must be oderless, tasteless and harmless.
A review of the first year's work, Dr. Beadle said, indicates that the method shows a great deal of promise. Farmers and ranchers with small stock ponds and cities with small reservoirs are expected to be the first to benefit.
Piano Duo To Perform
Vera Appleton and Michael Field, well-known piano duo, will present a concert at 8:20 p.m. Monday in Hoch Auditorium. The program is being presented by the KU Concert Course.
Since the two became partners in 1943, they have made 12 coast-tocoast tours, performed in Canada, and have played in several Town Hall concerts.
They have also performed for radio and television and were subjects for a movie short. They are appearing at KU for the first time.
A western civilization review course will be conducted by Jo Ann Brown, Massena, N. Y. junior, from 7 to 10 p.m. today and Thursday in room 9 Strong Hall. Admission charge is two dollars.
One of their series, "Two pianos Through Four Centuries," was sent around the world in a transcription made for the state department.
Western Civ Review Being Held Nightly
The review is designed to cover all the readings, answer the questions in the manual, and to give added help in understanding the general background of the course.

Dona Sescat, Emporia junior, has been appointed editor of KU Cues, Joy Immer, Kirkwood, Mo. senior, and president of the Associated Women Students, announced at an AWS Senate meeting Tuesday.
KU Cues Editor Named By AWS
The KU Cues is a booklet on life at KU sent each summer to new women students by the AWS.
"The booklet will be revised this year and the name changed." Miss Seacat said, "but as yet exact changes have not been decided upon."
Of the 10,600 Americans who perished in fires during 1956,6,300 died in buildings and 4,300 outside buildings.
Group Plans Fete Des Rois
The traditional Fete des Rois or Day of Kings will be celebrated by the French Club, La Cercle Français, at 6 p.m. Thursday in the Oread Room, Student Union.
The French serve a special kind of cake at a family dinner to commemorate the visit of the wise man to the manger in Bethlehem. English speaking people also observe the Twelth night.
Allaway Resigns From KU-Y Job
Before coming here, Mr. Allaway was employed in the Denver office of the Institute of International Education. He plans to enter the field of international education on a university campus after he finishes work on his doctorate.
"A feve, a broad bean, or more usually these days, a figurine is baked in the cake," Mattie E. Crumrine, assistant professor of the Romance Languages, said. "After dinner the cake is divided among the guests with a special ceremony. The porson who gets the bean or the figurine is the king or queen of the fete."
Sara Guy, program secretary of the KU-Y, will be in charge of the oragination until a successor to Mr. Allaway is chosen.
Mr. Allaway came to KU in September, 1854, as general secretary of the YWCA-YMCA. He became general secretary of the KU-Y following merger of the YWCA-YMCA last spring.
William H. Allaway, secretary of the KU-Y, has resigned to complete requirements for the doctor of education degree at Denver University. The resignation becomes effective Feb. 1.
Those who wish to attend the dinner are to call KU 315 or go to 103 Fraser for reservations. The dinner will cost $1.50. Games and singing will follow the crowning of the king or queen.
Skiers Practice Leg Exercises
Leg strengthening exercises were practiced Tuesday at the Student Union by 70 students preparing for the third annual KU-Y ski trip.
SOON
The skiers will leave Jan. 23 by bus for Winter Park, Colo., and will return Jan 28. They will stay at the Timmerhaus Ski Lodge.
Fabio Carniel, Trieste, Italy, and Werner Schrotta, Vienna, Austria, graduate students, will instruct the skiers.
Foreign Student Project Discussed
A representative of the National Student Assn., Philadelphia, will visit the University Thursday and Friday to discuss organization of a foreign student leadership project next year.
He is Ted Harris, who will meet with the registrar, the deans, the foreign student advisers and campus activity leaders. The proposed program would enable a foreign student, active in campus affairs in his own country, to attend an American University. These students would take an active part in student activities and carry an academic load as well.
Ten such students are in the U.S. this year.
Less than one-fifth of the hogs marketed in the United States are of the meat type.
