'Streamlined Calendar Increases KU Efficiency
The new "Streamlined calendar" now in use at KU features a shorter spring vacation, shorter final exam weeks and a revised beginning-of-school schedule.
The result is more efficiency in getting the school year underway as well as starting school four days later without losing any teaching days.
Final week will be shortened from seven days to six days, and spring vacation will be shortened to a five-day Easter holiday. School will still be over at the regular time in the spring, but it will begin four days later in the fall.
Spring vacation will vary with the date of Easter. It will be from Thursday through Monday on the weekend of Easter.
Orientation week began this year on Sunday with a students-parents convocation, enabling more parents to accompany the students to the campus. Orientation under the new calendar is stretched over a period of seven days, giving the new students plenty of time to get acquainted with the operations of the University.
Registration and enrollment were held this fall on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, enabling classes to start on Monday.
The new calendar was adopted last May by the University Senate, the faculty committee governing operation of the University.
Navy Faculty Adds Two
Two new instructors in the naval R.O.T.C. program this fall are Lt. Joseph E. Greig and Lt. (j.g.) Walter T. Herrmann.
Lt. Greig came to KU from the Naval Post-graduate School at Monterey, Calif. He graduated from Missouri School of Mines, where he earned his commission in the Navy.
He was formerly on the intelligence stuff of the commander of the Pacific Fleet. He is married and has four children.
Lt. Herrmann was an operations officer aboard the USS Duncan in the Pacific fleet before coming to KU. He attended Tulane University, where he received his commission and an electrical engineering degree. He is married and has one child.

The shots will be given on a first come, first serve basis and will be given to the students at no cost Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the Health Service, said.
Another 900 shots are expected to be received this week and from 1,200 to 1,500 shots next week Dr. Canuteson said.

Art Museum To Show Films
The Museum of Art will hold an open house Sept. 19, from 7 to 10 p.m. Five art films by Norman McLaren will be shown at 7:30 and 9. The purpose of the open house is to acquaint new students with their University Museum of Art.
Films to be shown are "Window on Canada: An Interview with Norman McLaren," "Fiddle-Dee-Dee," "Begone Dull Care," "Stars and Stripes," and "Poulette Grise."
These films are unusual because Mr. McLaren uses a technique of applying dyes, inks, and stains directly to the film surface, producing special effects which are synchronized with music.
The galleries will be open to the public during the open house and refreshments will be served.
Nearly 2000 species of shrimp exist. The young pass through 10 larval stages. Most adults apparently spawn only once and have a life span of one year.
