NO OFFENSE INTENDED, MR. CHAMBERLAIN—But that's you on the right, held by Anita Grist, Independence, Mo, freshman. Lyndon Bailey, Topea sophomore, and Sue Suran,
Hays sophomore, also show puppets they have made. The girls made the puppets in an art education class, using such materials as socks, sticks and paper sacks.
Catalogue Of Art Exhibit Available
A 30-page catalogue of the exhibition, "Fontinalia—the Art of the Fountain and the Fountain in Art," is now available in the Museum of Art office.
Students may get the book free with an identification card.
The exhibition is being displayed in the lower gallery of the Museum through Nov. 30.
We read where the British War Department has an 800-year supply of women's long johns. If the Victorian era comes back, man, will they be prepared!
Professors Return From Conferences

Students at KU in 1923 saw the administration moving from Fraser into the just-completed Strong Hall; the building of Watson Library also was started. They were growing then too!
KU Was Growing Some Back In 1923, Too
Strong Hall having been begun in 1911, was completed in early December of 1923, with the addition of the center section to the east and west wings.
Plans for Strong to have the first elevator on campus were dropped to meet a lowered budget, so a shaft was left for it to be added later.
Surprising to present Jayhawkers is that the architects planned the main entrance to be on the north. It consisted of two flights of stone steps and landings with an automobile entrance below.
The 1923 Jayhawker said, "The north entrance will be very imposing and impressing, presenting a beautiful view from the stadium."
What a shock it'd be if those same people would sit in the stadium now. They'd find the view broken by the unsightly annexes just north of Strong Hall.
Since its early days Strong has turned its face to the south and to Jayhawk Boulevard, only halfheartedly giving the impressive view to the Kaw Valley.
Much rock was mined just south of the building where students now congregate to study or socialize on the lawn. This rock was used for road building, probably in Jayhawk Boulevard which was finished at about this time.
With the growing enrollment Spooner Library was no longer adequate, so Watson Library soon became a part of student life.
The new library was to be part of a quadrangle with Fraser on the east and another building on the west. Although a favorite grove had to be sacrificed, the site was chosen because of its central location and nearness to the power plant.
Plans were to do away with the
old journalism building to make room for an east wing on the library. The building was considered very old then and little was it realized students might have anatomy lab there 34 years later.
