Red Scientists Called 'Friendly'
Russians stole the show at a scientific conference in Tokyo, Japan. a University faculty member back from there reports.
The delegation of Russians attending the first regional conference on electron microscopy in Asia and Oceania attracted the attention of the Japanese, said Dr. Norvel M. McClung, assistant professor of botany.
Dr. McClung returned to the campus Sunday after a month's absence. He was one of four Americans invited to present papers on the uses of the electron microscope in their special fields. The other U.S. professors were from Columbia University and the Universities of California and Washington.
"The five Russians, who brought along an interpreter, were extremely friendly and cooperative and told us much of interest about their work." Dr. McClung said.
Delegates came from Japan, India Indonesia, Cambodia and Red China. Two German scientists, including the co-inventor of the microscope, were among those who attended.
Dr. McClung lectured at the Tuberculosis Research Institute at Kyoto University, where he was a guest of Dr. Ichiro Uesake. Both men are doing research on nocardia, a fungus related to those that produce antibiotics.
Center To Be Established

An Accounting Installation
KU already usesIBM punched card systems for its academic and business records. IBM through its educational contribution program is giving KU a punched card accounting teaching installation. This will be ready for the spring semester and also will be in 8-C Strong Hall until the School of Business hall is built.
Chancelor Murphy indicated that within schedule limitations, the computation center would be available to scientist at other educational institutions in the area.
Dr. G. Baley Price, chairman of the mathematics department, heads a computer committee that has made a study leading to the establishment of the center.

Unusual Career Claimed By Visiting Dean Of Women
"I got my job in a rather peculiar way," said Mrs. Christine Hogin, dean of women and director of student activities at the University of Kansas City, during an interview following her speech at the Panhellenic Workshop Thursday night in the Student Union, in regard to her "unusual" career.
Mrs. Hogin was not recruited from the ranks of the educators when she became dean of women three years ago.
"I had never worked before," she said. "I had been active in civic, Panhellenic and church work at a local and national level, and I guess that's why I was considered for the job."
Mrs. Hogin's job is also unusual in itself.
No Women Residence Halls
"There are no women's residence halls at the University of Kansas City," she said. Fifty per cent of the students live at home, many more live with relatives and many are married.
"Only 1,600 to 1,700 of the 3,500 enrollment are full time day students. The rest attend night classes. So you see my biggest challenge is to present an extracurricular program that will interest these various types of students enough to bring them back to the campus for it," she said.
Unusual Family Going a step further. Mrs. Hogin claims an unusual family.
"My four daughters and husband all have very different interests, but we manage to stay together in them. In one corner of the room I may be reading poetry out loud while one daughter is listening to the radio, another sewing and my husband watching a football game on television. Yet we are all together."
Mrs. Bogin said she believed these wide interests keep her family patient with her career.
"My husband, William Hogin, is a businessman and quite active in Scout work, so he understands," she said.
Two of her daughters are married and the younger two are now high school students.

Vassar Students Studying More Hours
POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y.-(IP)—Results of a campus time survey conducted last year by Vassar College reveal the median number of hours spent on academic work per week is 47 per student, compared with 38 hours in the 1925 survey and 42 in 1939-40.
The faculty and student curriculum committees are pleased with this indication, since three hours a week is expected for every credit point, so that an average of 45 hours might be expected for a typical 15-point program.
