U. Men Are Planning on Military Training At least four University of Kansas men have determined to 'tend the summer military training camps this year. A number of others have stated their interest in them but have not definitely decided whether they would "give their vacations to their country," or not. J. R. Grinstead, '18 College, from Pawhuska, Okla., will go to the Fort Oglethorpe camp June 3rd, and will remain until the 20th. John Caryle, from Pawhuska, Okla., will go to H. A. Lorenzo will go to the camp at Plattsburg. Carey will go in July, but Lorenz has not decided what time he will be able to attend. C. H. Sacher, freshman, college guard Holly Holland practically can go to one of the camps. "Great interest is being manifested in the camps this year," said Lorenz. "The Plattsburg camp has been opened since May 3rd and there are already more than 8,000 there, so able to form a size that the camp will attain when the schools and universities begin to send their delegations. "I would like to see K. U. have a good representation this year," he continued. If the students could realize the benefit that they receive from a recreational and educational standpoint, they would not hesitate to go. Niles and myself formed the K. U. delegation last year and I cannot estimate the value that we received from the experience and training. The expense connected with the military training camps is not heavy. Each member must provide himself with a military suit and a pay fee of twenty-five dollars, regular United States army officials, medical attention, etc. To become a member it is necessary that the applicant be between the ages of eighteen and forty-five. He must be of sound physical condition able to state in camp life, he must possess a college or high school education. He must also bear an excellent character in the community where he lives. The W.

This will be the last lecture of the year but a series of eight have been arranged for the coming year, Dean Olin Templeln hopes that this new movement will become so popular that it will establish a college tradition. There are many capable speakers among the members of the University faculty, and no doubt they will give us a chance to out-sidere. The students will have an opportunity to hear the faculty members in other roles than instructors; they will learn a base of the faculty cannot be displayed in the classroom. At the end of each year, it is hope, that the lectures can be collected and published in a volume which will be put in general circulation. LEONARD E. DECKER PLACES IN EXAMS AT TOPEK A Leonard E, Decker, Corporal in, Company M, finished first in the preliminary examinations at Topena Thursday and will be one of the three National Guardmen who will represent Kansas in the competitive examinations for an appointment to West Point.

Akright, '17 College, is unable to attend classes for the present as he developed a bad case of measles yesterday. It is supposed that he caught them from some of the boys around town as he is one of the leaders of the boy scout work in Lawrence. Kenny Wright was first chosen to represent Company M but failed to pass the physical examinations because he had a wound received on the range here. Decker enlisted in Company M in 1942, and now holds the company's warrant. A number of students in discussing Ada Dykes' talk at the convocation Friday morning arrived at the conclusion that if they possessed her dramatic and oratorical ability they would not be mere students, attending the University of Kansas they would be lightning-rod agents.

Judging from some of the costumes there were several delegates from Manhattan on the floor; Jacks and Jills and paws went up the Hill to minibar tables, where the point was represented, adding bidity and patriotism to the evening. Berta Eichauer and Patty Hart as Martha and George were the official chaperons, however they were unaware that the pigeon-walkers among the guests. The imported dancers were considered the best ever seen here, they had special music and special steps. Senior Moreno, Dorothy Cole, and Senorita Caverna, Annette Ashton, gave a demonstration of their Italian engrafter, Gladys Elliott, with a trained monkey created a perfect furre. The monkey, Georgia Gray, of Kansas City, displayed more than the usual apish intelligence; it did every thing but talk. Its mastery of the art of aesthetic dancing was discovered by Suspikins cut all of her dances with Vernon Cassell, Mabel Elmore, to pigeonwalk with the missing link. The refreshments were served on the lower floor of the Gym a la cafeteria, the gentle woman essorted the fair partner about the table heaped with goodies and she made her selection; this done they went to the music room to listen to the "Sympathy Trio."

Many of the contestants appeared in full dress, only one found it necessary to remove his coat in order to break the world's record in throwing the discus, Minnie Moody broke the record. There were no wall flowers in atten dance, and nobody sat out any dances. Who could resist McCanles' redefinition of mighten the Corner Where You're ain't?

Both Missouri and Kansas will have another match this week when they go to Des Moines for the annual Mike coiffes. Captain Teachener will probably use three men in the match with Missouri this week. O'Brien won one and lost one single match in the Oklahoma meet last week in the game, a good game time and his team had the racket was sufficient to warrant his getting a chance at Missouri this week. In the doubles Teachener chose Allie Cowgill as a partner and the combination was strong enough to win a double, combination, Robinson and Tweeter. There is a possibility that Cowgill may be used in the singles as well as the doubles in this match. SAME TROUCH TO DO In the Valley meet Friday and Saturday the same three men will probably participate.

At the end of the fourth timing the score stood 6 to 5 in favor of the Sig Alps, but in the last half of the game, both teams got and the lead which they held. The game was exciting from the very start, although a bit loose in spots. Noel started in the box for the Sig Alphs but was relieved in the first inning. Costly errors allowed runs for both sides, and, taken as a whole, the break of luck was about even. LECTURER FROM FRONT French Officer to Speak at U.

AGGIE MEET WAS FAST Good Time In All Events and Two Records Were Smashed Friday NOW FOR VALLEY CONTEST Kansas Stands Good Chance at Columbia Races BROKE OWN DISCUS RECORD The Kansas Aggies proved to be a more formidable opponent for Kansas on the outdoor cinders than they did on the indoor track but Coach Hamilri gave it a tough fight in defending the Aggies in Manhattan Friday afternoon, 66 to 43. The score for the indoor meet was 66 to 19 in favor of the Kansas men. This means the Aggies scored more points in this meet while Kansas failed to enlarge her former score. In spite of a threatening run one track was fast and the day great for a track meet. Fast time was made in almost every event on the program but only one K. U, and one Aggie record were knocked off the shelf. The second record, in Ribbed Rookey and O'Leary, set up a mark of 3:24:11 in the mile race which clips four seconds off the old record set by Cissna, Henderson, Ellswick and Edwards in 1914. Dobrill, Aggie weight man, broke his school record when he left the Alarm 122 feet apart. Their former record was 121 feet 4¼ inches. O'Leary tied his record of 50 1-5 seconds in the quarter-mile Friday. He had set the mark up as a K. You record only the week before and tied it again the next chance he got. He was the first to win this week he will probably lower the mark below the fifty line. Davidson, spinner, was another fast stepper on the Kansas team. He ran the 100-yard dash in ten flat which is the fastest in the state. Kansas for some time. He was not pushed in the 220-yard dash but made fairly good time anyway. O'Leary took an easy second in this race also. The pretty two-mile race which was looked for between Teeter and Grady did not materialize. Teeter was in first class shape for the race and won easily in 10:03:11 with Stateler finishing three seconds behind. Grady had trained down too soon and was stale for the race. He ran well all the way but was unable to put on his usual strong finish. Both Stateler and Grady failed in the race with blood from bad spikes by opponents and one of Stateler's wounds is liable to cause him trouble the remainder of the season. Kansas made a clean sweep in three events, the 220-yard dash, the quarter-mile and pole vault, while the Aggries were only able to get one clean sweep. This was in the high hurdles when Wilder nosed Winn out by three inches. Winn came back with a second in the low hurdles a moment later. Two K. U. records had a narrow escape in this meet. Captain Bonnie Rebe threw the shot 43 feet 2-34 inches which is only 3-4 of an inch less than the K. U. record which he threw on his way to the mile run which Sproul ran in 4:32. This is only four-fifths of a second slower than the record set by Edwards in 1914. Both of these records will probably fall in the Valley columbia Saturday unless some dark horse roamers in for a first place. Work this week will be directed toward the Missouri Valley Conference meet which is held in Columbia Saturday afternoon. In spite of the defeat by Missouri last week Kansas won by 10 points at least get a good second. The different schools in the Valley will split in most events in such a manner that Kansas with a few consistent winners might be able to take in a pretty large score. Simpson will be unable to take his five firsts in this meet, summed up in comparison and heats that will be necessary in all his races. FULL SQUAD TO COLUMBIA The preliminaries will be held on Friday afternoon and will necessitate Coach Hamilton's taking his quarter-milers to Columbia Thursday morning. The remainder of the team will take their morning. A full squad will be taken to this meet and every man will get to enter.
