Teachers Meet Tomorrow
Four Standouts To Be Here
E. Power Biggs, Theodore Harrison, Cecil Burleigh and John Thompson are the four outstanding teachers and recitalists to appear on the Kansas Music Teachers' Convention program at the University tomorrow and Tuesday. Their recitals and master classes will climax a series of events during the two-day meeting.
Biggs is recognized as one of America's most gifted organists, and although he has performed both abroad and in the United States, he is best known here for his Victor red-seal recordings of organ music. Harrison has appeared many times as baritone soloist with the Philadelphia, Minneapolis and Chicago symphony orchestras. His broad experience as a teacher in Italy, Germany and England has particularly equipped him to train singers.
Burleigh, foremost American composer for violin, will appear in the three-fold capacity of performer, teacher and speaker. He will present a program of his own compositions in Frank Strong auditorium at 1:30 p. m. tomorrow.
John Thompson is an outstanding figure in the piano field. He is known equally well as artist teacher, concert pianist, composer and lecturer. He, too, has appeared as soloist with the London, Boston, St.

Wheeler Again
According to Doctor Wheeler, folk songs and numbers with heavily accented rhythms are written during periods when the climate is warm.
Dr. R. H. Wheeler, professor of psychology, will explain his theory of "Cycles in the History of Music" in an address to members of the Kansas Music Teachers' Association in Frank Strong auditorium at 11 o'clock tomorrow morning.
80 Journalists Dine--what weather beaten type-stick.
Chief rosy spot during the evening was the presentation of the Zilch Award to Stanley Stauffer, college junior, and Betty West, college junior. The award was a somewhat weather beaten type-stick.
This music theory coincides with Wheeler's theory on democratic periods, times of international war, times of civil war, and culture in general, as related to the varying climatic cycles.
Elmer A. Zilch Presents Award
Zilch, who flew from New York by carrier pigeon to speak before 80 journalists last night in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building, was warmly received by the hey-deying newsmen. He spoke of his adventures along the Amazon while on his recent trip to Africa, and his days on the University Daily Kansan back in '04.
With all the force and drive of a steam-driven angleworm Elmer A. Zilch, New York journalist, told University journalists last night that journalism is journalism and facts are facts, and never the twain shall meet.
Debuted during the evening was a one night performance by the faculty of the department of journalism, who gave an enlightening expose of a regular Monday afternoon faculty meeting in the department.
During the course of the evening the guests were somewhat taken aback when they discovered their guest of honor was Ed Garich, college senior, now playing wet nurse to the "Sour Owl."
Also adding merriment were student stunts consisting of take-offs on the life of a student journalist. A student band of three pieces furnished mood music for Gerald Tewell, college sophomore, who passed out cigarettes and played the part of a pink skirted cigarette girl.
Music Educators Hold Banquet
Munching, music, magic and merriment—all for 85 cents. That is the offer convention officials are making delegates to the Kansas Music Teachers' Convention which is being held on the campus tomorrow and Tuesday.
If you haven't guessed, it's a banquet. A banquet for music teachers, music lovers, music critics, and just plain folks who known a good thing when they see it. The feed begins at 6 p. m. tomorrow; the fun begins after a reasonable lapse of time. It's in the Memorial Union ballroom.
After munching is finished, music comes first in the form of "Carry Me Back to Old Virginny" by a Negro quartet consisting of Rudolph Rhodes, fine arts special student, first tenor; Arthur Brock, college freshman, second tenor; Sidney Dawson, fine arts freshman, baritone, and Lorenzo Fuller, fine arts senior, bass.
Magic will be provided by Bob Ramsey, college junior, teh Ramsey of gold-fish gulping fame. He will
Led By Stoland Kansas Wins Third In Track
Led by Bob Stoland, who broke the high jump record and captured two first places, the Kansas tracksters squeezed into third place in the annual Big Six indoor track meet at Kansas City yesterday.
Nebraska copper first place with 47 points, Missouri was runner-up with 26, Kansas scored $20\frac{1}{2}$, Oklahoma was fourth with $18\frac{1}{2}$, Iowa State was fifth with 14, and Kansas State finished last with 6 points.
Stoland leaped 6 feet $2\frac{1}{2}$ inches to set a new mark in the high jump, and also took first in the broad jump with a 22 foot $7\frac{3}{4}$ inch effort. J. R. Jones, last year's broadjump champion, gave the Jayhawks second.
Eight records were broken in the meet, which attracted only a small crowd.
Other Kansas point winners were Don Pollom, who took fourth in the 60-yard low hurdles; Bill Beven, with a third in the pole vault; John Michener, who tied for fourth in the pole vault; and Dick Edwards, who came in second in the mile run.
Jayhawks Down Fighting Huskers
Lincoln, March 1—(Special)—Howard Engleman poured 24 points thru the net tonight to lead the University of Kansas to a thrilling 55-53 victory over Nebraska's Cornhuskers.
The Jayhawks cinched a tie for the Big Six championship with the win, and if they can beat either Iowa State or Oklahoma, they will be the undisputed champions.

Paleontologist Builds Mechanical Animal
To be successful in the field of paleontology, one must be a jack-of-all-trades.
To prove it, Orville Gilpin, a preparator in paleontology from the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, finds that an understanding of mechanics, artistry, clay modeling, use of ingenuity, and a great deal of patience are all a great help when it comes to mounting speci- mens.
Gilpin came to University from Chicago to mount some new specimens for Dyche Museum, which reopens this spring, and found that some of the necessary equipment he needed was lacking—and here is where Gilpin showed his ingenuity.
Needing something to support the bones of the specimen while setting it up, Gilpin went to the local junk yard and bought some parts from old automobiles. Included in his purchase were several universal joints. Using these pieces to mount
leg bones, Gilpin can adjust the legs to any position that he desires. Part of the steering column of one car serves as the backbone of his "mechanical animal."
At the present time Gilpin is mounting a small rhinoceros skeleton upon his "model". The bones of the animal were so broken and disconnected that more than 2 months have already been spent upon the specimen and it is still not completed.
—That's where the patience is needed.

Emotions are useful
23rd and Louisiana
Psychologists know something of the genesis of both remorse and resentment. Under certain circumstances these emotions are even useful. Our social consciences, or technically super-egos, place barriers in the way of the repetition of previous harmful or painful behavior through remorse. Society has domesticated the dangerous aggressive urges since time immemorial though the threat of retaliation. If you know it is your eye for his, you will tend to curb your impulse to snatch your neighbor's eye out. The law of the talion arose out of society's necessity.
Remorse and resentment become dangerous when they become the prevalent emotions. The emotional satisfaction which may be had this year by knocking out a neighbor's tooth, in order to even the score for the one of yours he knocked out last year, ought to be tempered by the realization that he may knock your head off next year. Under these circumstances the old Christian ethic of cheek turning might have been more reasonable in the first place. Resentment is universal
In the present world, resentment has become too universal as a motivating force. Since early in the twentieth century revenge has been leading to counter revenge so that it is no longer tooth for tooth, but civilization for civilization. Early in his book, "Mein Kampf," Hitler describes the intense resentment he felt in his youth towards orthodox Jews. Some, although certainly not all, of the German anti-Semitism is

Javhawks Seek A Clear Title
Jayhawks Can Win Crown By Taking Cyclones
With a chance to nail down a clear claim to the Big Six championship, the Jayhawks meet Iowa State in one of the most important games of the season at Ames tomorrow night.
By virtue of last night's win over Nebraska, Kansas is assured of at least a tie for the title, but must defeat either Iowa State or Oklahoma to win an undisputed crown.
However the Cyclones didn't think so. They swept thru Kansas State and Missouri again, and administered a double defeat to Oklahoma to pull back into the race.
Iowa state was considered a favorite to cop the Big Six title early in the season, on the basis of eight consecutive victories against nonference foes in warm-up games. But Kansas interrupted the Cyclone winning streak with a 44-41 victory in Hoch auditorium.
The Iowa State aggregation came back to shellac the cellar-dwelling Missouri Tigers, but promptly dropped a pair of games to Nebraska, which appeared to eliminate them from title consideration.
Coach Louis Menze's starting quintet is considered one of the best balanced teams in the conference. With two lank rebounders and three small speedsters, the Cyclones combine height, swiftness, scoring punch and defensive ability. Gordon Nicholas and Carol Schneider, starting at center and guard, usually control the backboards. Nicholas has been among the leaders in individual scoring all season.
Dale DeKoster, a swarthy guard, was high for the Cyclones in their first game with the Jayhawks with 11 points. Opening at forward posts will be Al Budolphson, who has been scoring demon lately, and Fred Gordon, a defensive ace.
Number 1 relief man is Leon Uknes, a husky sophomore, who earned the praise, of "Phog" Allen for his play against the Jayhawks in January.
Football Drills Begin Tomorrow
Approximately 20 new gridmen will swell the spring football total to 55 candidates when official drills open under the watchful eye of head coach Gwinn Henry tomorrow afternoon at Memorial stadium.
Henry, with assistants Vic Hurt and Harry Lansing and freshman coach Wayne Replogle aiding, has been at work two weeks with a squad of 35 men in light, pre-practice drills.
"Too many boys pay only passing attention to spring football," Henry said, "then wonder why they're not getting to play more when the regular season rolls around."
Henry stressed the fact that all men who have hopes of competing next fall should report for spring football.
Practice next week will consist primarily of conditioning drills with running and ball handling slated to receive the most attention. Light ball-handling maneuvers have been the order during the past two weeks for the sweat-suited squad.

No Action On Conference Commissioner
Kansas City, Mo., March 1.—(Special)—Big Six faculty representatives and athletic directors named no commissioner of Big Six conference athletics here today, but admitted they had given the matter consideration and would take further action when they meet in Lincoln next May.
Nearest the heads came to the commissioner question was the naming of Reeves Peters, Northeast Kansas City high school football coach and present commissioner of conference football officials, as head of the basketball officiating system.
The men voted to allow Big Six teams or individuals to compete in the National Indoor Tennis Championship to be held in Norman, March 11-17.
Actual changes were of minor importance.
Three other innovations concerned basketball, one football.
The directors framed a basketball scouting rule which will allow one man to scout one team in one game during the year, the scout being allowed only four games.
Other basketball secessions featured the lifting of the present rule limiting the home team to 10 men, the clarification of the current playoff ruling, and a more suitable method of drawing up the conference cage schedule.
The rule governing spring football practice received a more unified interpretation. A conference school may now definitely be allowed work on a 36-day practice schedule, irrespective of the number of calendar days.
Bix Six basketball coaches will convene in Kansas City Dec. 6 to draw up the 1942-1943 schedule.

Stars of the Week
Walt Sheridan, Sig Alph—Tallied 17 points in his team's 42-21 victory over Carruth Hall and gained the scoring leadership of Division I with a 10.8 point average.
Jim Seasley, Phi Psi—Was largely responsible for the Psi's highly important win over the Tekes 26-19. Sealey sank five long shots at crucial moments and turned in his usual fine floor performance.
Eugene Sanneman, Newman II — Led the way in Newman II's decisive 38-32 victory over the Caballeros by gathering eight field goals and two free toes. Sanneman also performed brilliantly against the Ichabods, scoring 15 points.
Sigma Chi Sets New Intramural Scoring Mark
By CLINT KANAGA
Sigma Chi set a new seasonal scoring record by swamping Theta Tau, 71-12, yesterday and cinched a berth in the playoffs. The Theta Tau game was the finale for the Sigma Chis, who finished the season with a record of eight wins against two losses.
Achieving their ninth straight triumph of the season, Newman II won easily from the Ichabods, 38-11 with Eugene Sanneman, Elmo Maiden, and Jack Coyle turning in outstanding performances.
Alph Tau Omega, rang up its 4th consecutive victory, upsetting Alpha Kappa Psi, 29-19. Prior to their 4 wins, the ATO's had lost their first five games. Against the A. K. Psi five, the ATO outfit moved in front 21-6 at halftime, and then coasted in with a 10-point winning margin. Bill Arthur, ATO, and Red Thompson, A.K. Psi, were the game stars.
In the two thrillers of the week end, the Hellhounds nosed out the Caballeros, 18-16, while Alpha Chi Sigma had a scare in downing Delta Upsilon 19-17. Starll performers in the Hellhound-Caballero battle were White and Presson Shane, Hounds and Harden McGraw, Caballero. Duane Wagoner, Alpha Chi Omega and Phil Russell, D.U., tied for high point honors in the A. C. Sigma-D. U. game.

Col. Baldwin Announces R.O.T.C. List
Colonel Karl F. Baldwin, commander of the University R. O. T. C., announced yesterday the appointment and assignment of cadet commissioned and non-commissioned officers and first class privates of the R. O. T. C. regiment for the second semester.
A total of 625 men are enrolled in the R. O. T. C. this semester; this exceeds by 240 the enrollment of any other second semester in the history of the University. In addition there are 13 men taking the advanced course without receiving pay, since the quota for the advance course had been filled.

Confusion Compounded
By John Ise, professor of economics
I left the auditorium Thursday morning, after Sir Norman Angell had spoken, with the notion that I had heard a sound presentation of the situation the United States would be in if Hitler conquers England. Talking with one of the teachers in the political science department, I found that he too thought Angell was correct on nearly every point.
SUNDAY, MARCH 2, 1941
I presently noticed however, that a great many students thought the lecture was just British propaganda. I find it difficult to understand how anyone who has read even a little of the literature on Fascism—Laski, Munk, Raushenbush, Lowenstein, or that classic on the subject. "Mein Kampf"—could question the general validity of Angell's argument.
He said that this was not an imperialistic war, and that is correct, in the main. There are imperialistic elements in it, but in its main outlines it is, from the British point of view, the reverse of imperialistic. The classes that have always instigated imperialistic wars have been the "appeasers" in this war. Angell said that Hitler would probably get the British navy, if he won the war, and pointed out that he could starve England if she refused to hand it over. Could we blame the British if they acceded to his demands?
Europe Not Enough
Angell suggested that Hitler would not be content with the conquest of England, and most of Europe. That seems correct, for most of the students of Fascism believe that it must have continuous war to survive; in fact the idea that war should be the normal state is to be found in the books and speeches of the Fascists themselves. A long period of peace and quiet would doubtless cause a disintegration within the Fascist nations. They do not want peace, and they could not stand peace; so Hitler would not stop with the conquest of England. Over and over, Fascist leaders have proclaimed that they must conquer the world; yet when Sir Norman Angell says it, we are told it is propaganda.
Well, Angell said that Hitler would try to take over South America. We do not need to guess here; he is already working at that, with thousands of agents scattered through the South American countries, using the same methods that he used in other countries in Europe. He could probably control most of the South American countries, perhaps without much fighting, if we did not intervene; and if we insisted on the Monroe Doctrine, there we would be at war, with no British navy to help us.
The Panama Canal
Perhaps Hitler would not come to Mexico, but he would probably want to control the Panama canal, and if he did nothing but threaten, he could make it vastly expensive for us to maintain our control of the canal. With the British fleet, he could control the sea so that we would sail at his sufferance; without the British fleet, he and Mussolini and Japan would have greater sea power, air power, and of course man power, than we could muster.
Angell said it was Hitler's policy to "divide and conquer." Read Raushenbush for a detailed account of this. Those who think we could live in any peace and security in a Fascist controlled world have not pictured concretely just what it would mean for an American producer or exporter to deal with such a power. Imagine any American manufacturer buying raw materials from the Fascist conquerors or selling goods to the Nazi government which controls the buying for 200 million people!
It seems to me utterly impossible that we could preserve any blissance of democracy, if the Fascists controlled the rest of the world (outside of Russia), and therefore that if England falls, we shall follow sooner or later. Hitler won't come directly across the Atlantic; Lindbergh is correct so far; but Hitler would make it impossible for us to live democratically in his kind of a world.
Situation Is Confusing
It is a confusing situation, surely. Many of our students—the finest people in the world, God bless them—appear to believe that our hope lies in isolation: some of us, on the other hand, believe that there can be no salvation in isolation, that we are inevitably bound up with the rest of the world by the iron logic of the machine age, and that our best hope is to line up with England and strike our heaviest blows as soon as possible. Someone is wrong here, a lot of people are wrong, on perhaps the most momentous question we have faced in more than a century, the question which
may well determine the fate of democracy the world over.
I hope it is myself and my crowd that are wrong, but most of the authorities on the subject are with us. The question comes up concretely in the debates on the Lease-Lend bill. I wish I could think it wise to line up with my esteemed Kansas contemporary, Alf Landon, in opposition to that bill; but look at some of the others who don't like that bill: Adolph Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Mrs. Dilling (author of the Red Network), Charlie Coughlin and Earl Browder! Confusion compounded! Is it any wonder that democracy is wobbling?

You Said It
The editor of the Kansan welcomes letters of opinion from students and faculty members to be published in the letters column. If the writer wishes, his name will be withheld, but the Kansan must have the names of all writers of letters.—
Editor, Daily Kansan:
Without criticizing the speaker at Thursday's all-University convocation sponsored by the school authorities, I should like to humbly ask the following questions:
Why, in a supposedly democratic state university, are the convocation facilities granted to a man whose views are a full 100 per cent British, and not to men who, equally qualified to speak, represent other points of view? Many patriotic citizens cannot agree with Sir Angell's "send the boys over" attitude.
When the minds of most of us are clouded with a smattering of a dozen different alternatives, is it democratic for our school to sponsor a British propagandist and not grant equal privileges to the pacifists and the short-of-war adherents?
Or is the attitude of the University that which was expressed by an adult leaving the convocation Thursday: "This school isn't trying to be fair any more. We're galloping into the war, and K. U. is going her part." I, along with several others, should like to know...
Respectfully, Dave Watermulder
Quick-on-the-trigger A. T. O. Loren Vieth, after being absent from school several days, returned to class and wondered why all the faces looked so strange to him. When the professor came in, he found there had been a classroom-swapping and he was in the wrong course.
By HEIDI VIETS
At intermission, Watkins hall party-goers were downtown picking up sandwiches wrapped in paper napkins. It proves two things: first, the dancing was hard and heavy; second, things were popping so that no one wanted to take too much time out for intermission.
Jeryn Ann Greene, Alha Chi, had the doubtful honor of being escorted to the Elmer A. Zilch journalism banquet by none other than Zilch himself. To anyone interested enough to wonder, Zilch in real life is Ed Garich.
ROCK CHALK TALK
Rock Chalk Co-op is becoming famous for a fine variety of puns. Here's a sample:
The other night George Bonebreak thought he had Miles White on the spot when he cracked, "You're not such a bad egg White."
But White, on his toes, came back with, "That's a dirty yolk." Now they're using it on Ef Prize ("You're a gold egg price")
After Katie Ann Sewell, Alpha Chi, read about Milton Wallace, Kappa Sig, catching a mouse in a coke bottle, she experimented, trapped her own finger. Now she sympathizes with the mice.
If even Shakespeare is scorched for over-punning, how can they go unharmed?
Gray, Dorsey entertained the Brick's crowd last night by singing "Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair," ala Colonna.
While the picture concerns the University of Kansas, no emphasis will be placed on the students attending this school, either in the picture or in the commentaries before the picture begins.
This film will be sent out in a few days to schools over the state as a courtesy of the bureau of visual instruction, Fred Montgomery, secretary of the bureau said today.
Mi fesso Sweet group of ever
Situations used in the movie are typical of those found in many colleges and universities and serve to answer questions which high school students have concerning college.
The film is being shown throughout the state without charge to the high schools. Art Wolf of the extension division staff will take charge of the projection equipment and public address system. He will also furnish the commentary for the picture.
Far Above The Valley--out the state without charge to the high schools. Art Wolf of the extension division staff will take charge of the projection equipment and public address system. He will also furnish the commentary for the picture.
University Film Attracts Large High School Crowds
Remember way back when the movie "Far Above the Golden Valley" was made and then premiered here on the campus, under the direction of Allen Crafton, professor of out the state without charge to high schools. A speech?
"Far Above the Golden Valley" has been shown at a number of high schools in Kansas, and the enthusiastic reception it received has prompted the visual instruction bureau to offer it now as a full evening program.
March 3, the film will be shown at high school assemblies in Ottawa, Iola and Garnett. March 4, it will be shown at Ft. Scott and Pittsburg. Arrangements are being made now for other appearance dates.

happenings on the hill
Emile Weiss, college senior, left a meeting of the Cosmopolitan club intending to go straight home and study, but being a generous fellow offered to take a girl to the post office on his way home. From that time on his mind was a sort of blur, but he says he finally discovered he was in Ottawa. No one knows yet whether or not he mailed the letter.
Miss Mary Larson, assistant professor of zoology, will speak on Sweden at a meeting of the junior group of the American Association of University Women tomorrow evening.
Hangovers from the architect's trip to the Better Homes and Building Exposition at Kansas City, Mo last week—Eugene Sanneman, senior engineer, had a cold trip home Someone lifted his overcoat while he was in a downtown restaurant Robert Royer, sophomore, was eating in the same restaurant and ordered fruit cake for dessert. After a few bites of the rum soaked cake, Royer remarked, "This is the best cake I ever drank." Luillel Bryant, senior engineer, and Charles Steel and Betty Ann Leasure, fine arts seniors, were the only girls in the class of architects who made the trip to the city.
Dale Ewing, college freshman, and Mrs. Carlotta Nellis, housemother of Carruth and Templin halls, went to Kansas City last night to see the play, "The Man Who Came to Dinner."
Larry Blair, freshman engineer and "Model T" owner at the Jayhawk Co-op, is commercializing on his automobile. He sells transportation cards to the Co-op boys for
30 cents. Each card entitles the holder to 15 trips up the Hill, Blair punching the ticket bus-style every time he carries a passenger.

Entomologists Return From Neosho Trip
Prof. H. B. Hungerford, state entomologist, and R. H. Beamer, assistant entomology museum curator have returned from Neosho, Mo., where they spent two days in insect fumigation work.
A load of Kansas nursery stock was fumigated before shipping it into the western states. Kansas has an insect blanket quarantine that prevents nursery material from being shipped unless cleared by fumigation and the work was done in Neosho because there are no suitable facilities in Kansas.

When resentment becomes a national policy over periods of years a vicous circle is established. The outcome is a sort of retaliatory strip poker where the skin itself becomes the last garment to be bet. If there is any possibility of establishing a real new order after this war, it will be through a peace based on sociological principles rather than on revenge. Although remorse isn't pleasant may we all suffer more of it and less of resentment in the days to come.
TODAY

2 — BIG HITS — 2
Psychologists have the beginning of the answer. Much of both remorse and resentment are expended on displaced goals. The remorse we feel about a behavior may simply be the cover-up for guilt feelings we can not face. The object of revenge may be the substitute for the true but hidden source of our anger. This fact leads to the possibility of reducing some of the secondary emotion by learning to face the true objects of our loves and hates. And thus arises the possibility of the control of remorse and resentment through education.

400 Teachers At Convention Philharmonic Tonight
Seven, that lucky number of tradition and dice games, perhaps will make more secure the precarious position now occupied by the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra when that famous group of artist musicians presents its concert of symphony music in Hoch auditorium at 8:20 tonight. Seven is the number of pieces to be played this evening, and its no secret that the Philharmonic needs all the luck it can get.
The Philharmonic board of trustees, who already have considered a proposal to disband the orchestra, will make their final decision Friday when a special ways and means committee makes its report. If the committee says "disband," then tonight will be the last appearance of the Philharmonic in Hoch auditorium.
Lois Craft, harpist, will be the featured soloist on the concert this evening.
NUMBER 98.
Tonight's program of seven numbers includes "Overture, Hebrides" (Mendelsohn); "Symphony No. 5, in E Minor, Op. 64" (Tschaikowsky); "Introduction and Allegro for Harp and Orchestra" (Ravel); "Pomp and Circumstance, Op. 39" (Elgar); "Danse Macabre" (Saint-Saens); "Andante Cantabile from the Quartet, Op. 11" (Tschaikowsky); and "Overture, Russian Easter" (Rimsky-Korsakoff).
Student activity tickets are good for admission to the concert.

Organized Houses Are Not Cooperating On Vaccine Returns
Time was spent trying to hit upon a happy definition of the term "hazing." This came as part of the discussion of possible violations of the M.S.C. anti-Hell Week bill, but the bill gave power only to discipline for hazing, and as hazing escaped definition, the council decided to leave the action up to the Men's Inter-Fraternity Council.

M.S.C. Meets Last Night
A proposal to set up a Big Six booking agency to secure better bands for school dances by having name bands play at conference schools during the same week was referred to the dance committee for study.
Proposals, trivialities, and plans to delay action flew thick and fast at a short meeting of the Men's Student Council, held in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building last night. After a lengthy discussion it was decided to set the spring election dates between April 1 and 25.
Bill Farmer, president of the Council, proposed a tentative plan to cement student-faculty relations by establishing a joint council which would hear complaints on present courses, criticisms of faculty actions, and agitations for new courses.
After a discussion of some twenty minutes it was decided to take up the problem of changing the shape of the student council key in a later meeting.
The committee would also sponsor smokers and vocational guidance forums, and a one hour orientation course for entering freshmen. Russell Mosser, P.S.G.L. representative, moved to form a committee to study the possibilities of the plan.
"Convention machinery is working at maximum capacity," Karl O. Kuersteiner, president of the Kansas Music Teachers Association, and director of the University symphony orchestra, said this afternoon.
(continued to page eight)
"Attendance at our convention already has reached 400, surpassing by 150 all previous K.M.T.A. convention attendance records," he added. "Master classes have almost double their expected enrollments, and all sessions have been exceedingly well attended."
The program of Kansas music was especially well liked by convention-ites. Howard Halgedahl, bassoonist, and Homer Keller, pianist, from Ft. Hays Teachers College, brought much favorable comment from the audience when they played Keller's "Sonata for Bassoon and Piano."
Theodore Harrison, famous baritone soloist and teacher, took the stage in Frank Strong auditorium yesterday afternoon to surprise and please his listeners. Harrison, at an age when most men have forgotten (continued on page eight)
Four From K. U.
In Primary
Four persons connected with the University will watch election returns closely tonight. They are candidates for election in the Lawrence primary election. Officially this is a primary election, but if no candidates file on the independent ticket before the regular city election of April 1, the offices will be filled tomorrow.
A. M. Ockerblad, associate professor of applied mechanics, is a candidate for councilman from the first ward; F. A. Russell, professor of civil engineering, is uncontested candidate for councilman from the third ward, and Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, and Mrs. Carrol D. Clark, wife of the professor of sociology, are candidates for positions on the board of education.
Marine Lieutenant Interviews Candidates
Lieutenant R. D. Taplett, liaison officer from the Marine Corps, is here at the University making preliminary arrangements to enlist applicants for a commission, through the candidates' classes, into the Marine Corps Reserve.
Students who will be graduated this spring are eligible. Lieutenant Taplet will remain in Lawrence until 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, and students may contact him at the Military Science office.
He will return to Lawrence in two weeks to interview applicants and give preliminary physical examinations. Final physical examinations and enlistments will occur late in the spring.
Engleman Breaks Big Six Record
Howard Engleman became the new Big Six individual scoring record holder last night, when he raised his season's total to 158 points in the Iowa State game at Ames.
This mark surpasses the old of 154 points, set by Frank Groves of Kansas State in 1937. Groves needed 10 games to set his record, but Engleman did the trick in nine. Therefore any

In 1939, as a sophomore, Engleman earned a starting berth at forward and chalked up a total of 122 points for the season, including both conference and non-conference contests. He participated in 19 games to rack up an average of 6.4 points per game.
A lack of consistency marked Engleman's play that year. In several games he was held scoreless, but when he was "hot", he couldn't be stopped. Against Oklahoma, he was particularly torrid and went on a scoring rampage against the Sooners which will not soon be forgotten. The blond ace sank 27 points to break the old Kansas individual scoring record of 26 tallies set by "Phog" Allen himself back in 1906.
Handicapped by Bad Knee
Last year, "Rope" was handicapped by a bad knee, playing irregularly during the first half of the campaign. But he recovered in time to score 11 points against Creighton and 13 against Missouri as the season drew to a close.
This was just a warm-up for the N.C.A.A. playoffs, however, when the Ark City sharpshooter really went to town. He came through with 11 points per game against Oklahoma and Oklahoma A. and M. in the Missouri Valley playoffs to lead the Jayhawks into the Western semi-finals.

One Year Out of Order--- Engineers' Exposition To Be Held April 18-19
Back in the spring of 1922, students in the School of Engineering were making great plans for their annual Engineering Day celebration. There was going to be the usual athletic contests between departments, the banquet, and dance, but the big event was the parade of floats. The engineers always carried a supply of eggs and stinkbombs during the parade and shelled their traditional enemies, the lawyers, who returned the fire. The big day was set for April 27. On the night of April 26, the floats were assembled and ready for the parade, but there was no parade. During the night, persons unknown went through the floats like Hitler went through the Low Countries, and next morning the engineers found a sorry-looking mess of junk in-
When the mob of engineers arrived at Green hall, the lawyers were already firmly entrenched on the steps and in the halls. In the brawl that followed, windows were broken, fire extinguishers turned on the "contestants," and a few facial features changed. The April 27 issue of the Kansan told of one engineer who wore an Alpha Tau crest over his left eye as a result of a lawyer punch.
As a result, all social relations between the Engineering and Law schools were severed and Chancellor Lindley abolished the Engineer's Day.
But, in 1923, P. R. Walker, dean of the School of Engineering, had an idea for turning surplus engi- (continued to page eight)

Comes spring, then comes the time that your permanent looks like nothing human, your figure has spread five pounds in the wrong direction, and all your clothes look like sackcloth and ashes.
Comes spring, then comes the time your professors stop liking you, the library looks like the Black Hole of Calcutta and you eat strawberry ice cream cones in lieu of sulphur and molasses.

Veils are better than ever, especially when hitched up with a baby straw set plunk on top of your head.
That South American styles and colors are way out in front, but if you want to get a little closer to home, you can't do better than the North American Indian, God rest his soul.

Survey Shows Gain In R.O.T.C. Enrollment
Enrollment gains in the University R.O.T.C. this year and last coincide with the nation-wide increase indicated in a recent survey by the Northwestern National Life Insurance company. The survey shows 186,750 men enrolled in R.O. T.C. during the spring semester of 1940, an increase of 20 per cent over the previous two years.
Military training is offered in 136 out of the 1,700 schools of college grade in the United States. About one-half of these colleges and universities make the basic R.O.T.C. course compulsory and the junior and senior years elective.
All military courses at the University of Kansas are voluntary. About
Announce Exams For Positions
The United States civil service commission has announced examinations for the positions of junior
engineer, inspector of aeronautical engineering materials, supervisor and assistant supervisor of Indian education in mural painting and fine arts, and instructor, mobile laundry.
Applications for Inspectors
The position of junior engineer includes all branches of engineering. Completion of a college engineering course is required, except for senior students under certain conditions. Salary for this position is $2,000 per year and applications must be filed before March 31.
Applications for Inspectors
Applicants for the position of engineering inspector may qualify in any of the following options: Aircraft, engines, mechanical parts, aircraft propellors, instruments, tools and gages, materials, and parachutes. Salaries range from $1620 to $2,600. Applications will be rated as received until further notice.
The positions of supervisor and assistant supervisor of Indian education require specialized study in fine arts, or practice in mural techniques, as well as experience in the field of fine arts. Applications are due by March 31 and salaries range from $2,300 to $3,800 a year.
Applicants Must Have Washed
Experience in actual laundry operations are required of applicants for the position of instructor, mobile laundry. This experience must include use of modern washing and drying machinery and preparation of laundry solutions. Salary ranges from $2,000 to $2,900 per year. Applications will be received until further notice.
Debaters Leave Today For Missouri Debate
26 per cent of the men students on the campus are enrolled this semester, and officials are predicting an even greater enrollment next fall. The University R.O.T.C. expects to graduate about 40 men this spring who will report for one year of active duty as reserve officers.
University debaters go to Columbia today to debate the negative of the question, "Resolved: That the nations of the western hemisphere should form a permanent union" with the University of Missouri tonight.
Established by the National Defense Act of 1920, the Reserve Officers Training Corps has contributed largely to swelling the ranks of national reserve officers. When the United States entered the World War I she had only 2,900 reserve officers. Now there are over 103,000. The annual cost to the government of maintaining these R.O.T.C. units amounts to $11,500,000.
Members of the team are Russell Baker, business junior, and David Rice, college senior.

-Modern implications of the New Testament will be the discussion topic of the study group which will meet at 4:30 p.m. tomorrow in Henley House under the auspices of the extension committee of the Y.M.C.A.-Y.W.C.A. abinets.
"These weekly meetings represent an attempt to apply meanings which are pertinent from the individual standpoint," said John Moore, executive secretary of the Y.M.
Directory Supplement This Week
Slowness of students in correcting addresses and paying fees which delayed the registrar's office force in checking the second semester enrollment is responsible for the postponement of the date when the directory supplement will be out. Rowland Raup, directory editor, says he hopes to send the supplement to press sometime late this week.

TUESDAY, MARCH 4, 1941.
AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
ALTHOUGH BIG SIX moguls failed to name a Czar when they convened in Kansas City Saturday during the conference indoor track meet, they gave an indication that such a step might be forthcoming where they meet again in Lincoln next May at the outdoor event . . Iowa State and Nebraska are leaders in the move which would create an official with capacities approaching that of Griffith of the Big Ten and Gman Atherton, hired last year by the Pacific coast conference . . Kansas is said to be edging toward the Iowa State-Nebraska side . . George Veenker, Iowa State, chairman of the athletic director board said Saturday that he did not feel that a boss of the Griffith or Atherton type was necessary for the Big Six, but thought that a man of the right type could do much for the conference in a secretarial leadership and publicity capacity.
AMONG NOTABLES present at the meet were Mike Getto, former Kansas line coach now tutoring the line of the Pro Dodgers; Ralph Conger, former Kansas freshman coach now at Wentworth Military; Bert DeGroot, University physical education instructor, K. W. Davidson, publicity director of the University; Dick Sklar, former All Big-Six Kansas football guard; Don Faurot, M.U. head football man; Ted O'Leary, former All Big-Six forward here; Harry Smith, former All-American guard at U.S.C. who will assist Faurot next fall; Hobbs Adams, K-State head grid maestro, and Ed Elbel and Sam Sifers, well known Kansas Relays combination, who handled affairs around the p.a. system for the event. DeGroot and davidson acted as officials . . . Smith and Adams had enough football to talk about to keep them away from the morning preliminaries. . . . Faurot could do little but moan about the loss of last fall's fine crop of backs, which included fullback Bill Cunningham to the draft. . . Cunningham had another year of competition coming. . . . The slight Tiger head man indicated that Big Six opponents would have their hands full stopping a little guy named Harry Ice next year, however. . . When that 27-23 halftime Kansas-Nebraska score was announced O'Leary grew dejected with the belief that the psychology would be all with the Huskers for the final half.
A HARD working Jayhawker team surprised everyone in general, and the rest of the field in particular, with a neat performance which landed them in third place, eight points below the potent Tigers, instead of a predicted fifth. . . . Biggest gun in the Kansas showing was Bob Stoland, who kangarooed to a new record in the high jump and also copped a first in the broad jump to be one of the two double event winners of the evening. . . . Bill Smutz, Nebraska hurdler who grabbed firsts (included for first)

Evelyn Herriman, education junior, has been selected as captain of the recently organized junior women's basketball team.
Women's Intramurals
by Mary Ihloff
In the inter-class basketball tournament, the juniors played the freshmen and were defeated 15-7. The sophomores defeated the seniors 38-20. Second round of play made the sophomores the class champions after their 25 to 14 victory over the frosh.
Most of this week will be spent in running and passing practice with actual blocking and tackling beginning in about a week. Short scrimmages will be held later in the season.
Today is the last day for playing off ping pong and badminton games in the second round of the tournament. Dates of matches in the intramural swimming meet have been posted on the bulletin board in Robinson gym. First matches are scheduled for March 19.
Evelyn Herriman (IWW) defeated Peggy Davis (Theta) in the aerial darts finals by the following scores: 6-15, 15-13 and 15-13. Kappas and Pi Phis won deck tennis games over Corbin and Watkins halls, respectively in the finals matches.
Gridmen Check Out Equipment
Selected as players on the women's varsity basketball team are: Katherine Schaake, Helen Wilson, and Mildred Wells, forwards; Evelyn Herriman, Mary Chapple, and Margaret Butler. guards.
Varsity team players were chosen after the finish of class games from which the star players were chosen.
Thirty-six gridmen turned out for their first official day of practice yesterday. Fifty-three have checked out equipment, but sub-freezing weather held attendance down. Coach Henry sent the men through dummy scrimmage, but most of the time was spent in checking out equipment.
Gwinn Henry, head Jayhawk grid coach, today termed the spring edition of the varsity football squad as the best since he took over the coaching reins two years ago. "We won't have enough reserves," said Henry, "but if all come back next year, we'll be able to put at least one good team on the field."

Sollenberger, who had not been feeling well on the Nebraska-Iowa State trip, had been suffering from flu and is now confined in Watkins Memorial hospital.
Social Problems of Freshmen Discussed
"Personality Problems of Freshmen" was the subject of a discourse on freshmen and their adjustments in college by Mrs. Joseph King this afternoon at Henley House, under the auspices of Y.M.C.A. and Y.W.-C.
Mrs. King discussed the psychological factors in adjustment typical of the freshman age and problems of the adolescent. She pointed out the new social factors in the life of the first year undergraduate and the decisions which they are forced to make. Tips on how to meet and get acquainted with other students were given to the group.
Five Quintets Cinch Titles In Intramurals
By CLINT KANAGA
Phi Gamma Delta grabbed undisputed claim to the Division II championship by whalloping Kappa Eta Kappa, 65 to 17. Roscoe Hambric topped the Fiji scoring list with 19 points while Larry McSpadden, Chain Healy, and Earl Olson, all gathered 13 points apiece. It was the ninth Phi Gam triumph in ten starts.
Newman I rang up its tenth straight win of the year, in winning easily from the Hellhounds 36 to 14. Newman II can tie with Newman I for the Division III title if they win their remaining game with the Hellhounds. Stars of the Newman I victory last night were Ed Vandaveer, Warner Coffin, and Joe Fournier.
Five intramural basketball teams either won or gained a share of their respective division championships as a result of last night's contests. The successful teams were Newman I, Phi Gamma Delta, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Delta Chi, and Beta "B."
Delta Chi and Sigma Alpha Epsilon each secured at least one-third of the Division I title by winning their final games last night. Delta Chi downed Phi Alpha Delta 31 to 23 while the Sig Alphs staged a fourth quarter rally to defeat the A.T.O. five 30 to 23. Phi Kappa Psi will receive the remaining one-third share of the title if they win their final contest against Alpha Chi Sigma Saturday.
Charles Wenstrand and Jim Zimmerman performed will for the Delta Chis, while Breen and Widner stood out or the losers. Walt Sheridan, Sig Alph, won the scoring championship of Division I, by tallying 13 points, to boost his total to 110 points in 10 games. Dick Webb was high scorer for the A.T.O.'s with four goals and three free throws.
With Merle Morris and W. C. Hartley leading the way, Beta "B" finished the season with a 31 to 20 win over Teke "B" to cinch the Division V top berth. The Beta record is perfect, with eight wins.
Bill Krum went on a scoring spree of 22 points as Phi Shi "C" downed Sigma Chi "C" 39 to 13. Glen Perkins paced the Sigma Chis with four field goals.

Cyclones Tr Meet Oklahoma In Title Game
By DON H. PIERCE
Kansan Sports Editor
The Kansas Championship Express, temporarily derailed by a red hot band of Iowa State Cyclones, was back in the roundhouse today gathering steam for it's final regular season bid for the Big Six basketball crown against Oklahoma in Hoch Auditorium Friday.
The Jayhawkers, who sewed up a certain share of the title by whipping Nebraska Saturday night, could have stalked out the sole claim in Ames last night, but dropped a 41-29 verdict to the inspired Menzemen, and now must face the defunct Sooners for the undisputed top rung. $ \textcircled{4} $
The Oklahomaans, chosen by most experts to fight it out with the Jayhawkers for the title, started off last December in high by lacing Kansas at Norman in the opening loop contest of the season, but now can show only a poor conference average of four wins against five losses with a current seven game losing streak to top things off. Their latest drubbing occurred Saturday night at the hands of a juvenile-playing Missouri Tiger, who administered a 61-42 drubbing.
Must Beat Sooners
An Oklahoma victory Friday night would throw Kansas into a tie for the championship with the Cyclones, both of whom would have records of seven and three.
By virtue of their triumph last night Iowa State assured itself of undisputed possession of second place regardless of the outcome of the O.U.-K.U. skirmish.
Blazing the way to victory in the Iowa State triumph were co-captain Al Budolphson, a lithe forward, who got loose for 12 points in addition to an excellent floor

game, and his front line running mate, smooth Fred Gordon, who shackled Howard Engleman with a mere five points while collecting six himself.
The blond Kansas shotmaker, however, set a new Big Six conference scoring mark as he ran his point total to a phenomenal 158; four above the old mark of 154 hung up by Frank Groves of Kansas State in 1937. Last night's showing dropped the hemp-haired forward to a 17.6 average over the nine game route.
Breaks Big Six Record
The Cyclones took the court under full sail and maintained a steady pace throughout. After Bob Allen, who led the Kansas point-getting fired in three consecutive baskets to give the Red and Blue an early margin, Budolphson took over with a superb job of ballhawking and goal shooting to send the Northerners into the lead for keeps with only nine minutes of playing time consumed.
The stark-eyed forward sank four goals while Dale Dekoster, the Iowans outstanding guard, nailed three and Gordon and Gordon

ENGLEMAN BREAKS--jump with a second place leap only one-eighth of an inch behind Stoland. . . Other indications which may raise Red and Blue stock by Maytime were the showings of Ralph Schaake who qualified for both the high jump and shot put, Don Pollom who finished only a yard behind Smutz although placing fourth in the lows, Dick Edwards who ran a classy mile behind Nebraska's star sophomore Ginn, and Jack Michener and Bill Beven who performed virtually up to expectations in the pole vault with a third and a fourth place tie.
Nichols contributed four and three points, respectively to give the victors a 21-15 margin.
Gordon Shackles Engleman
Meanwhile Gordon was doing what all other Big Six defensemen had failed to accomplish in limiting Engleman to a pair of charity tosses as a first half scoring total. Two goals by T. P. Hunter, one by Vance Hall and a charity toss for Marvin Sollenberger accounted for the remainder of the Kansas total.
The second half was a repeat order of Cyclone domination. The towering Nicholas, held to three points in the initial period, tore loose for nine tallies to pace the second half route which saw Allen, and Johnny Kline, who turned in another outstanding rebound performance, waved to the bench with four fouls apiece.
The Cyclones ran the count to 31-20 before Kline hit another fielder from the side then finished in a 10-point outburst while Hall and Sollenberger, connected for goals, and Charlie Walker, Hall and Hunter added a free throw for the extent of the Kansas scoring.
(continued from page one) duced, he poured 21 points through the nets to lead his mates to victory.
Nine minutes had elapsed in the second half before the road-weary Jayhawks could count from the field on Engleman's first and only bucket of the evening.
Scores from four of the college with which the R.O.T.C. rifle team fired last week have been received and posted at the rifle range.
R.O.T.C. Scores Received
But the climax came in the now famous game with Southern California. The "Houdini of the Hoops" scored only six points that night, but the last two have become national basketball history.
With seconds remaining in the game, and Kansas one point behind, Engleman made his famous shot, which passed through the twine as the gun sounded to crown the Jayhawks champions of the western half of the United States.
A Standout in Defeat
In the national finals against Indiana, Engleman stood out in defeat. His scoring in that game consisted of five field goals and two free throws for a total of 12 points. His offensive rebounding was phenomenal, and, as a result, he was named captain of the N. C. A. A. All-American team.
This year, Engleman's scoring feats have been the most popular subject of campus conversation. Even the lowliest freshman can reel off Engleman's latest average without batting an eye. Fans telephoning for results on game nights ask
"What was the score and how many did Engleman make?"
In all but one of the Jayhawker's games this year, the official scorer has had to record Engleman's total in two-digit figures.

BIG POLITICS
Tonight the W.S.G.A. has another meeting. Almost all members of the council will be there because this meeting and the one before it are the only important ones of the year.
TUESDAY, MARCH 4, 1941.
Why are they the important meetings? Because our student government is composed of students who feel that the most important part about government is to get elected to office. Student affairs can go hang for all they care.
The odds are very much against the idea that the resolution regarding combining the men's and women's governing bodies will get even a glance. That is too much like doing something constructive.
So, tomorrow the W.S.G.A. will announce its new slate of candidates. There will be no great choice between any of the candidates. Until a new spirit of responsibility to the students arises in that governing body, no one can be elected out of the chosen group which has control who will be worth a plugged nickel as a student representative.
What's the matter with our students? Don't they realize they are being duped by both our student councils? The only thing our "Hill politicians" consider worthwhile in our government is the honor of being elected to an office in it.
Student government on this campus needs new blood. It needs new leadership. It needs men and women who are conscious of their responsibilities.
Mussolini declared the Italians will march with the Germans to the very end. And may the end bustify the meanies!
GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP
Last week C. E. McBride, sports editor of the Kansas City Star, devoted his entire column to an open letter to the athletic directors in the Big Six. The subject of the letter was the actions of the crowds at most of the Big Six basketball games this year.
This season the fight for the basketball championship of the Big Six has been very close. Nearly every game has been hard fought and full of thrills. An exciting game brings the emotions of the spectators to a fever pitch, and the crowd becomes a roaring mob. Boos and hisses and jeers are taken up and soon the whole crowd is castigating the officials, the opposing team, the opposing coach, and everything about the school which the team represents.
Probably at some time or another every referee in the business has been booed by irate fans. Most of them, however, can "take it."
To boo the opposing players and coach is quite another thing. The other team is made up of young men who are doing their best to win the game even if they get a little rough doing it.
Booing has been common at collegiate athletic contests for only a few years. For some reason, college men and women used to think that to invite a team to play your own and then boo them when they did not play to suit you was poor sportsmanship.
The governor of Missouri was inaugurated 44 days late. The good old Show Me State!
K. U. has had a pretty clean record up until this basketball season. Our team has acquitted itself with success on the floor, but we are failures in the cheering sections.
It begins to dawn on the old line Republicans that Willkie may be the real Indispensable Man.

And fair, warm weather on any day means that a good many students are going to get the urge to be out of doors and glimpse first hand, the wonders of the Kaw valley so vividly described in the Lawrence $ ^{ \textcircled{2}} $
"Fair skies and rising temperatures." That's the weather man's prediction for today.
Chamber of Commerce literature.
If you just must study, your glimpse may be a little more fleeting than that of the leisure class, but you shouldn't miss the view from Haworth hall across the Wakarusa valley south to the bluffs some 10 miles away. On still days, there is invariably a lazy blue haze hovering over the valley. Engineers have a choice view of the same valley from the auditorium in Marvin hall—and added to that there's a piano in the room for those who like music with their scenery.
Slaving students in Snow laboratories have a key spot on the Campus. To the north, they can look across Potter lake, Marvin Grove, and on past the Kaw river about 15 miles.

Students who like to stroll might visit one of the city's five parks. We recommend Central Park on Tennessee street and Clinton Park on West Sixth. Both these parks have accommodations for persons who like burned steaks and toasted marshmallows.
Students with the motoring urge might venture southwest of town to Lone Star Lake. But if you go boating, remember the water still thinks it's February. If you've never been to the old Stonewall southeast, there is the place to practice mountain climbing.

Shades of the Puff Pant prom—two of the handsome stags were Betas. In case you're interested, they were really Jean Steele and Doris Twente in slacks, shirts, rainscoats, beaten-up hats, and placards to imitate Beta pins.
Marjorie Henry made Pi Phi's wonder Saturday night when she, with her boyish bob and man's suit, took her date to her third floor room after the Puff Pant prom. Marjorie reports that she not only scared the girls upstairs into their rooms but shocked the dates waiting downstairs by her audacity at marching up with her date.
William Osner had a bright idea in Prof. W. E. Sandelius's government class the other day. He threw up his hands so quickly that one end of his suspenders flew up to help attract the professor's attention.
C. H. Mullen, chief proctor of Battenfeld, Carruth, and Templin, has a new nickname. Since Jeanne Moyer said he looked like a Kewpie Doll, the rest of the boys have made things hot for him.
While Bob Trekell was sleeping Sunday afternoon, his roommates at Battenfeld borrowed several of his ties to use as a tail for a kite. The kite experiment was successful until the kite caught in a tree. After frantic efforts, the boys recovered the ties before Trekel awoke from his nap.
Earnest Boyce, professor of civil engineering, calls his 10-year old fox terrier, Mutt, the "post graduate." Eight years ago the little dog got in the habit of visiting Professor Boyce in his office in Marvin hall basement, and has been dropping in regularly ever since.
That was the last anybody thought of the cake until yesterday. Sunday when Blair returned from a weekend at home. A search revealed that the cake was still there, and well hardened.
At Jayhawk Co-op, stale cake is a new specialty. Last Monday Larry Blair celebrated his birthday. On Tuesday, he received a birthday cake, which was set on a pantry shelf.
Full-scale production of the earth blocks for use in the construction of the Engineering Research laboratory will be under way by the end of the week, according to a statement by W.C.McNown, professor of civil engineering. The blocks will be made in the basement of Hoch auditorium by NYA workers.

bottom for the rear foundation posts has been reached at depths of 30 to 45 feet. It was necessary to dig this deep for a good shale bottom because that particular section of the hill has been filled in with debris at some previous time. A solid bottom for the posts on the front, or north side, was reached at a depth of four to six feet. Water was reached at about 30 feet in a few places, and had to be pumped out.
The one story building, 160 by 40 feet in dimensions, will be completed in about six months, according to the present schedule.

Midas-Minded Woman Finds Success Easy
New York City, (UP)—Mrs. Maria Kramer is an astonishing success story on the distaff side, a self-made millionaire who left a small city (Tucson, Ariz.) at 16 and a few years later was able to pay $7,000,000 in cash for a big hotel. She is probably the only woman to head such extensive hotel interests—the Edison and the Lincoln in New York City—and her plans include a nation-wide chain.
She is attractive, with flashing teeth and dark hair, indicative of her Mexican ancestry, and has the positive air of a women who has met little but success. In her 20's she made $500,000 by a simple application of logic. She bought back from the French vast supplies purchased by them from the A.E.F. surplus and re-sold the material in the United States. Then she married an English sportsman who soon left her a widow. She opened a dress shop that prospered. Then Max Kramer appeared on the scene.
Kramer, a wealthy realtor, needed the site of the dress shop for a building. She refused to sell even when the ante was raised to $300,-000. At that figure she tore up the check. Kramer made a visit to speak his mind, but fell in love instead and married her. When he became ill she took over active direction of his hotel. She liked the work so well she cast about midtown New York for another hotel and finally purchased one.
She is a hard worker, gets to her office about 9 a.m. and is there all day. She owns one of the few full-length chinchilla coats in the country but never wears it.
At Monte Carlo, whiling away the time until dinner guests arrived one evening, she lost $25,000. She ate dinner and then went back to the
gambling table and won $100,000.
She is credited with discovering and sponsoring some of the better known orchestras. Among these are Artie Shaw, Blue Barron, Jan Savit, Tony Pastor, Charlie Barnet, and Gray Gordon.
Construction On Military Building to Begin Soon
Work on the new Military Science building will start in about two weeks, Clifford Gerry, district WPA manager, said yesterday in Kansas City, Kan.
The building expense will be shared by the University, the WPA, and the National Defense Council. Part of the labor will be supplied by the WPA.
The 40 pharmacy students, faculty members, and pharmacists who left Saturday to visit the Eli Lilly drug company in Indianapolis will return to Lawrence tomorrow morning at 8:10.

TUESDAY, MARCH 4.1941
Industrial Design Students Take Varied Course
Efficient co-operation is being displayed by the various schools of the University in making possible the industrial design course of study in the department of fine arts.
A special course in industrial design has been outlined by Earl D. Hay, professor of mechanical engineering, and T. D. Jones, assistant professor of design, but this will be only one of many subjects required for the industrial design major.
Making the interschool cooperation widespread, these fine arts students will take such courses as marketing, in the School of Business, advertising, in the department of journalism and engineering design courses in the School of Engineering.
With the addition of new courses in industrial design and graphic art by the School of Fine Arts, Kansas became the first university to enter this field west of the Mississippi river.
The artist may re-design a machine, but unless he knows something of engineering, it might be an impractical model. And even if it is practical, he probably wouldn't be able to capitalize on his design unless he knew something of advertising and marketing.
The schools are intricately connected, and the highest degree of cooperation will be necessary to make the industrial design major a successful course of study.
Tracing the growth of "industrial streamining." Professor Hay said, "The machine moved into the home right after the World war, giving more emphasis to industrial design. People weren't content with an ordinary machine. It became necessary to make the machine harmonize with household furnishings."
Industrial studies have shown the need for changes in industrial design. Formerly the operator had to fit himself to the machine. Now the machines are being designed to fit the operator to reduce fatigue and increase efficiency.
In attempting to improve upon balance, rhythm, harmony, and color in industrial design, three-dimensional design has been introduced. This has enlarged the field intensely, opening a new series of job possibilities.
Professor Hay described the student who will be most adept in industrial design in this way, "He'll be skilled in mathematics and physics, with a liking for art as well as machines."
Harris and Pratt To Present Recitals In Hoch Auditorium
Hortense Harris, soprano, a pupil of Irene Peabody, and Zaida Pratt, pianist, a pupil of Ruth Orcutt, will present another of the School of Fine Arts senior recitals at 8 o'clock tomorrow night in the auditorium of Frank Strong hall.
Miss Pratt will appear in 4 piano groups and Miss Harris will appear in 3 groups of songs.
The public is invited.

By this plan, the engineers would have an exposition every year, in which they would show the public the sort of work done in each department. He showed the plans to Chancellor Lindley, who heartily approved them and set the date for April 24 and 25.
Competitive interest was added when the Kansas City section of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and the American Institute of Electrical Engineers each offered a cup to be given to the department having the best exhibit. The ASME cup was won by the electrical engineers, the civil engineers took the AIEE cup, and everyone pronounced the Exposition a great success.
The show was repeated in 1924 and 1925. In 1926, however, officials decided to postpone the exposition until the next year, in order to give
Then there was a lapse until 1934, and the show has been repeated at regular two-year periods since then. While it was originally scheduled for next year, it was advanced to this year because of the 75th Anniversary celebration. The Exposition will be held April 18-19, and June 4-5.

Physical examinations will follow on the same day and on Thursday. Registration and enrollment will also be moved up a day on the schedule so as to be held Friday, Saturday, Monday, and Tuesday. Classes will start Wednesday, Sept. 17.
The period of orientation for new students will begin Wednesday, Sept 10, with the psychological examination, instead of Saturday, Sept. 12, as originally scheduled.
Senate Alters Frosh Week Orientation
X
With the coming of the fall semester of 1941 the traditional "rush" week for sororities and fraternities will be combined with a new freshman week schedule. All new students will come to the campus at the same time.
The opening convoitation at which Chancellor Malott speaks to all University students will be held on Wednesday, the day classes start, instead of the following Friday.
Advance Enrollment Date
Rushing activities will be carried on during the same days that freshman week activities are scheduled, according to a new ruling passed by the University Senate yesterday afternoon.
"The chief difference which the new arrangement will make is in requiring new students to come to the campus two days earlier than usual and returning students one day earlier.
"Stress Rushing"
"We hope to avoid the seeming stress on fraternity and sorority activities at the beginning of the new school year and to concentrate more attention on the University activities proper," said Dean J. H. Nelson, chairman of the freshman week committee, in speaking of the change.

Steenner makes his fronting count for more than mere decoration, utilizing a pleasing personality that
swing fans everywhere have admired. He takes a turn on the trumpet himself on practically every number. This makes a four-man brass section and with four reeds and three rhythm instruments, the band puts out a type of music which appeals to all.
The band music is highlighted by two musical clowns, Curtis Haas, the tenor sax man, and Max Fisher, a trumpeter whose falsetto novelties score heavily with the on-lookers.
Bob Davis and Betty Bennett provide the vocals in a personable manner. Miss Bennett is a particular asset with her original entertaining style and clever rhythm wordage.

Fete Set For March 15 Carnival To Hill
A real, honest-to-goodness carnival is coming to the Hill.
Resplendent with all the trimmings and paraphernalia of an old-time show, the carnival will arrive at the Memorial Union building at 8 p.m., March 15, and will beat the welcome drums until 11.
According to Betsy Dodge, fine arts sophomore, advance agent for the show, it will be called the Small Change Carnival, because there will be no admittance charge and practically all the shows will reveal themselves to dazzled eyes for the price of one penny.

Music Teachers' Meeting A Success Kuersteiner
"The Kansas Music Teachers' Convention was a complete success," Karl O. Kuersteiner, president of the group and director of the University symphony orchestra, said today.
"Although we don't conduct the conventions with the intentions of making a profit," Kuersteiner said, "we came out well on the black side of the ledger. With this year's profit we will publish a booklet for K.M.T.A. members showing the development of our group over the past 33 years."
I.S.A. Remaps Social District Boundaries
The second district includes student houses south of Eleventh street to a boundary line extending east down Fourteenth street to Kentucky, north Kentucky to Thirteenth street, and then east down Thirteenth. It also includes Battenfeld and Watkins halls.
Students desiring to know their district number may find it on the district map in the I.S.A. office in Frank Strong hall.
The Independent Student's Association central council decided to reduce the number of social districts in the association from four to three at its meeting in Watkins hall last night.
New boundary lines established by the central council place houses north of Eleventh street including Templin and Carruth halls in district one.

W.S.G.A. Postpones Council Meeting
The meeting of the Women's Self-
Governing Association, scheduled
for last night, was postponed be-
cause there was no important business pending and because of the Philharmonic concert, O'Thene Huff,
president of the council explained
today.
A meeting later in the week may be called if a suitable time for all members can be found. The two matters before the council now are the M.S.C. proposal to study the merits of a combined council and the plan to remodel the women's lounge in Frank Strong hall, neither of which merited urgent consideration, the women legislators decided, although the solo council proposal has awaited action by the women's council for two weeks.
If no meeting is called this week, the next meeting of the executive council of the W.S.G.A. will be Tuesday.

PART I — PUFF PANT PROM For once, the girls are going to make this column. Yep, our quick glimpse of what girls think we look like revealed all sorts of things. For instance, Annabel Fisher was very correctly attired in Jim Waugh's tux. The only thing you could raise an eyebrow about was the fact that she had the coat buttoned from right to left . . . which only goes to show that habit is habit.
Another thing . . . Marjorie Owen's costume included an empty rum bottle. All we want to know is where she got the idea.
PART II — FELLA'S SOX
To dispense with this item of apparel, we shall approach it from the inevitable (we still hope) angle of spring. It seems that solid colors are still to be in high favor, especially with the soft woolens for campus wear. A popular deviation is the Argyle plaid pattern which seems to hold its own during any season.
PART III - GIFT IDEA
The safest thing in the way of apparel to give some boy might be the new leather cuff-link set. The little brown gadgets come in a leather drawstring bag and would be appreciated both for utility and novelty. Give him a set and if he doesn't like them, take them away from him . . . because he doesn't know the score!

Laffer's "Onward Kansas" Makes Bandmasters Hum
RUSSELL WILEY
"Onward Kansas," the Kansas march composed by Jack Laffer, will be published in the near future, Russell L. Wiley, director of the University band, announced today.
"The march will need re-editing
and simplification," said Wiley, "before it can be published. It is a difficult number, and it must be made practical for the prospective 25,000 high school buyers."
Wiley, who recently directed the University of Wisconsin band playing the march at the American Bandmasters' convention in Madison, said that he had definite publication offers three hours after the number was played.
One thing led to another, the Japanese sewed up Shanghai with barbed wire and machine guns. Europe went off like a barrel of firecrackers, and Miss Patrick found herself forwarding letters from France to China. All perfectly legal, of course.
"The piece went over big," Wiley said. "People even hummed it at the dinner table."
The French youngsters went back to France, but continued to write now and then. It seems the family gadded about considerably and after the brother and sister had been in France a while their mother went to Shanghai. The youth grew up and went into the army.
It all started five years ago. The French youngsters were visitors in Hollywood. They were brother and sister, the boy about 16, the girl 17. They wrote a letter to Miss Patrick and told her she was their favorite actress. They wanted a picture.
"For such sweet words," she said, "they could have had a dozen. They wanted to know if they could bring the pictures to me and have them autographed. I told them, certainly. They did and that's how we got acquainted."
Publisher contracting the piece is Gamble Hinged of Chicago. It will be published as soon as it is re-edited and satisfactory agreements can be made with Laffer, the composer, and Allen Crafton, professor of speech, who wrote the words.
Hollywood, Calif.—(UP)—Gail Patrick is playing postoffice but keep your seats, men it's not that kind of game.
Star Plays Postoffice For France-China Mail
This is serious. The tall, dark and gorgeous actress got into the postal business through a series of events which started with the writing of a fan letter by a couple of French youngsters and included wars on opposite sides of the world.
Then came the blitz, the world fell apart as far as they were concerned, and with delays in the mails, censorship, and frequent changes of address, they were unable to get in touch with their mother.
Here enters Miss Patrick again. "They found," she said, "that if they'd send the letters to me, and have me forward them, they would get through all right."
Miss Patrick is busy now with the shooting of "Love Crazy" at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer but finds time to keep up the France-Hollywood-Shanghai postal relay and occasionally toss in a letter of her own.

Philharmonic Presents Excellent Concert In Hoch
By JOHN CONARD
It was not a matter of what is good and what is bad when the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra presented its concert of seven numbers and three encores before an audience of 3,000 in Hoch auditorium last night. It was a matter of varying degrees of excellence.
The first number, an overture to "Hebrides" (Mendelssohn) would have been beautiful and exciting even to a deaf mute. Karl Krueger's directing, as rhythmic and graceful as a modern dance, was inspiring in itself.
The spectacle of the perfectly coordinated physical movements of the orchestra members was also almost musical in itself.
Headdress a Rare Number
And the music? The overture to
"Hebrides" was one of those rare pieces in which we could connect the program's written interpretations and our own impressions of the number. Truly it did, as the program informed us, suggest the "murmur of the sea as it washes upon rocks forming the opening to a great cave."
It is sufficient to say that the orchestra did justice to Tschaikowsky's "Fifth Symphony." One doesn't have to be a music critic to appreciate this mood-exuding composition. It begins in a heavy, despondent tone, then moves into the beautiful, slow but appealing second movement. Soft chords and the famous horn melody lull the listener into a sort of dozing ecstasy, only to have him curiously disturbed in the third movement by
a pungent, uneasy valse. The sturdy march of the finale brings the piece to a brilliant climax. Craft Plays As Krueger Conducts
With Lois Craft playing the harp solo of "Introduction and Allegro for Harp and Orchestra" (Ravel), the deaf mute again would have a moment of keen enjoyment. Miss Craft plays the harp, as Kreuger conducts, with utmost poise and grace, but in our opinion the music was not up to the standard set by the orchestra earlier in the evening.
"Pomp and Circumstance, Op. 39"
(Eligar), a series of military marches,
was exceedingly well done. The lady in front of us turned around
to see who was stomping his feet,
and we're not even in the army.
"Danse Macabre" Well Done

Federal Geologist Is Transferred To Washington, D.C.
H. A. Waite, federal geologist, has been temporarily transferred to Washington, D. C., for work in that

From time to time the groundwater branch of the National Geological Survey calls its representatives to the national office to
acquaint them with routine work of the organization.
Waite at the present is working on geologic and groundwater conditions in Scott and Ford counties. Field work for the Scott county report was completed last fall.

Students in the University department of journalism tested their ability to put out a different daily paper yesterday when nine of them went to Ottawa to take over the Ottawa Herald for a day.

"Danse Macabre" the symphonic poem by Saint-Saens was of the highest quality, but the selection doesn't approach the best of the Saint-Saens work.
Especially popular with the audience was Tschaikowsky's "Andante Cantabile to the Quartet, Op. 11," known to so many because of the catchy phrase from the so-called "Volga Boatmen's Song." Call Kruger Rock
After the last number, the audience applauded, Kreuger bowed. The audience continued applauding. He bowed again, then left the stage. The applause never waned, and after a reasonable lapse of time Kreuger returned on the stage.
The audience liked him, and they liked his orchestra. It was only after the Philharmonic had played three encores, including "Tales of the Vienna Woods," that the director and the orchestra could call it a night and return to Kansas City.
Kansas Rates Second In Number of Pilots

Must Defeat Sooners For Title
sports AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
IOWA STATE'S 41-29 manhandling of a weary Jayhawker in Ames Monday night has definitely elevated the Kansas-Oklahoma clash here this Friday to the most important of the entire conference season for the Kansans . . . . Not only will a Red and Blue win now be necessary for a clear claim to the Big Six bunting but also for a chance to return to Kansas City as representative of the Fifth District in the N.C.A.A. Western half playoffs. . . . A defeat at the hands of the Sooners would write finis to the Jayhawker season, as the locals would be tied with Iowa State for the loop title and with the new conference ruling which awards the crown to the team having the best offensive-defensive record in case of a tie, the Cyclone margin would be far greater than that of the Kansans.
WINNING THE league title is not the only obstacle which the Allenmen must overcome before they compete in Municipal auditorium again. . . In the event of a win over O.U., Kansas will be forced to trample Henry Iba's Oklahoma A. and M. outfit here March 11 to gain further consideration, then down Creighton's powerful Bluejays, who have been conceded the Missouri valley title. . . So its either win or leave things up to a selecting committee which may or may not favor the Jayhawkers. . . Barring an upset, the Cowboys are out of the playoff picture because of their unexpected 24-22 loss to Tulsa last night.
FIRST PLAYOFF place in the Western championships has already been awarded to the towering Razorbacks of Arkansas who swept thru the first undefeated basketball season in the Southwest conference since 1928. . . Wyoming, which has almost tacked the Big Seven flag to its massthead, is the second likely entry, with a third coming from the Stanford-Washington State Pacific coast playoff.
JUST BECAUSE one or two other Big Six basketball crowds have sunk below the level of common court courtesy is no reason for Jayhawker fans to make an effort to retaliate with demonstrations such as were exhibited in the Kansas State game here last week. . . It is granted that the officiating may not always be of high caliber, but the point is that they are officials making a sincere effort to call a correct and fair game. . . And if you don't believe basketball calling is one of the most difficult jobs in the athletic world today try it yourself sometime. . . As for a hatred of the opposition, let the Jayhawkers take care of that. . . So far they've done a better job than

Delts, A.K.Psi's Win Intramural Cage Thrillers
By CLINT KANAGA
Delta Tau Delta and Alpha Kappa Psi each rang up thrilling victories by a margin of one goal in last night's intramural contests. The Delta Taus nosed out Sigma Phi Epsilon 27 to 25 while the A.K. Psi five defeated Delta Upsilon 22 to 20 in an overtime.
Chet Gibbens was the star of the A. K. Psi win, sinking a long one-handed shot to break a 20 to 20 tie in the extra period. The D.U.'s led at the half 11 to 4 but a Psi rally brought the score to 16-all at the end of the third quarter. Stars in the Psi line-up were Lee Huddleston and Bruce Johnson while Don Mosser and Phil Russell performed best for the losers.
Leading 15 to 13 at halftime, the Delta Tau's, sparked by Joe Laird, held their two-point lead to down the Sig Eps. Laird, in addition to gathering ten points for team high point honors, sank the game-winning basket. Standout man for the Sig Eps was Carl Teichgraeber who hit eight field goals.
Phi Kappa Psi "B" cinched a second place berth in Division IV by winning easily from Phi Gam "B" 36 to 15. Jim Brown and Bob Gilliland paced the Phi Psi attack with 16 and 8 points respectively.

Crucial Fray Here Friday; "Solly" Is Out
By GABE PARKS
A little worse from wear, but still on top of the league, the Kansas Jayhawkers are confidently preparing for their championship battle with the Oklahoma Sooners in Hoch auditorium Friday night.
The players rested yesterday after their grueling weekend on the road, and will workout lightly tonight and tomorrow. The strain of play six games in 20 days and having to battle against superior height has taken its toll, but coach F. C. "Phog" Allen expects to have the team in good shape for the all-important game Friday night.
Allen indicated that T. P. Hunter will probably start at guard in place of the ailing Marvin Sollenberger, who is definitely out of the game with glandular fever. Charles "Hutch" Walker will be ready in reserve.
"Solly" Is Out
The starting forward opposite Howard Engleman will be chosen from Johnny Buescher, Vance Hall, and Hunter. Allen would like to use Hunter's height to strengthen the front line, and if this happens, Walker will open at guard.
With a new Big Six ruling, which gives the championship to the team with the best offensive-defensive record, going into effect this year, a tie would not be of any great help to the Allenmen.
Including Monday nite's game, the offensive-defensive record of the two teams stand this way:
pts. o.p. mgn.
Kansas ... 382 366 16
Iowa State ... 407 355 52
As Iowa State has a considerable edge on Kansas as far as offensive-defensive records are concerned, the Jayhawker's chances for representing this district in the N.C.A.A. Western half playoffs would vanish with a loss Friday.
In order to prevent this catastrophe, Kansas must dispose of the Sooners, who have met the Jayhawks once this year and have beaten them once, by a 42-31 count. In other words, Oklahoma will be no pushover Friday night.
The Sooners have blown hot and cold this season, with a sophomoric squad looking terrible in pre-season games, then holding the Big Six lead for a month, and finally dropping seven games in a row. The lowest ebb was reached last week when Missouri's Tigers ran wild to bury the Sooners, 61-42.
O. U. No Setup
Stories emanating from Norman state that Hugh Ford, six foot seven inch center, who is poison to the Jayhawks, has an injured leg and will not be able to play.
A Scoring Club
Bruce Drake, the Sooner coach, has four players who are well up in the Big Six scoring tables, and three of them are still able-bodied. Ford is the bell-cow with 8.44 points per game.
Cyclones Favored To Cop Mat Title
Ames, Iowa, March 5—With seven dual meet victories in their record, Iowa State College wrestlers will turn to Big Six Conference tournament competition this week. The Cyclones defeated University of Nebraska foes, 25 to 3, to close their dual schedule Saturday night.
Warner weather greeted football players on their second day of spring practice. Cold weather Monday reduced attendance, but more than forty donned suits yesterday afternoon.
Ralph Miller, who withdrew from competition this year because of a knee injury, reported for practice, to bring the total to 55. Miller's knee is apparently in good shape.
Sam Linn of Shelby, senior 165-pounder who has filled the heavyweight spot in one appearance, will wrestle in defense of his individual league title. The conference meet will be held at Kansas State College, with the host team in defense of squad
Passing practice from some formation, and running for condition, was the order of the day for Gwinn Henry's charges. No blocking and tackling is scheduled until some time next week, When Henry expects most of his players to be ready for bodily contact.
Grid Lettermen Name Don Pierce Captain
Jayhawk football lettermen yesterday elected Don Pierce, all Big Six center, as honorary captain for the 1940 grid season. Pierce, a senior, also received a small gold football with a red and blue "K" and the words "All Big Six Center" engraved upon it. The gold football will probably become an annual award for Kansas Big Six selections, coaches said.

Stone, Johnson the Aces
Iowa State has lost only to its unbeaten neighbor school to the University of Minnesota, 16 to 13, and at Colorado State College, 15 to 13.
The Cyclones have defeated the Universities of Wyoming, 24 to 6, and Colorado, 28 to 6. Iowa State has also won from Colorado Teachers College, 19 to 13, from Dubuque University, 19 to 9, and from three conference foes.
Linn has lost only one decision in nine combats this season, winning by forfeit in another match. Undefeated in the year's 10-meet program is Capt. Ray Stone of Fort Dodge runnerup at 128 pounds in last season's conference affair. Stone, also a senior, has only one draw against his record.
Kansas State College was a 24 to 6 victim, while the University of Oklahoma lost 29 to 3, and Nebraska dropped the final match.
plunked in 14 points against Missouri, with a 7.22 figure. Garnett Corbin, veteran forward, is hitting 6.11 points per game.
Leading point-producer for Iowa State this season is Richard Johnson of Washington, junior 175-pounder who has taken eight matches by fall, winning one decision and losing another. Johnson's only loss was to Leon Martin of Iowa State Teachers College, as the Panthers took a 15 to 9 decision from the Cyclones. Only Loss to Gophers

Tree Idea OK, Says Ratner
Tree planting ceremonies to be conducted this spring in connection with the Seventy-fifth Anniversary of the University has the full approval and enthusiasm of Governor Payne Ratner, according to a letter received today by Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni Association.
Under plans formulated by the Seventy-fifth Anniversary operating committee, alumni groups will sponsor the planting of trees in school grounds, public parks, and private yards.

He referred specifically to the University's alumni project to sponsor a statewide tree planting project through the schools and commended the group on its proposed action. Praises University
"Kansas University has long had a widespread effect upon the life of our people," Governor Ratner continued. "Ours is one of the few states providing for such a University in the constitution, and in the 75 years of its history, Kansas University has助ed, in one way or another, in the training of about 86,000 students who have exerted an important influence upon Kansas and other states in the fields of education, the professions and sciences.

A new measure was proposed at the meeting of the Men's Student Council Monday night which should receive the support of all students.
The Council Awakens
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 5, 1941.
This proposal is that a student committee be set up with at least advisory powers to sit with faculty members during changes in the curriculum.
Monday night the matter was just proposed. No definite action was taken, other than sending it to a committee for study. Many measures have been known to die a lingering death in M.S.C. committees. But this is something that must not die. Factionalism and political bickerings have kept the Council from doing one really constructive thing this year. Factionalism and bickering can keep this measure from passing.
In other words, this committee would be a go-between for students and faculty, at least in the matter of curriculum changes.
The Men's Student Council is trying hard to get back into the good graces of the students, and it should be commended for it. Students should overcome their indifference and get behind this new measure. With both the students and their government backing the proposal, it cannot fail.
Also this student committee would advise the Administration when it became apparent that students wanted a new course.
Since the Independent Student's Association was organized at the University two years ago, it has grown from 20 members to the largest social group on the campus, with a membership of over 500 students.
The Independents Are Organizing
Although the I.S.A. is the largest organization of its kind at the University, it has yet a long way to go; there are still more than two thousand unorganized independents.
The history of the I.S.A. has been far from smooth. There have been two serious intraorganization disputes, and the Association has been led by five different presidents.
Under the guidance of Susan Maloney, the I.S.A. was launched in the spring of 1938. She did very little organizational work, and by late in the fall semester of 1938, the association could only boast 20 members. Dissension broke out among the interested independents and Miss Maloney was forced to resign.
However, because of Oakson's political affiliations, the I.S.A. was attacked by the Progressive Student Government League, and the confidence of independent students in the Association was undermined. Late in the fall semester of 1939 a new president and a new council were elected. The president was Charlotte Steele, a member of Oakson's council; but the new council members were all students who had had no experience with the organization of the I.S.A. The P.S.G.L. dominated the organization.
At a mass meeting of independent students in the spring semester of 1939, Louis Fockele was elected president of the I.S.A., and a central council of 10 members was elected to help him in the organizational work. This was the real beginning of the association. In two months the new council built up an organization of 300 members, and successfully conducted a national convention of independent students.
Fockele was succeeded in the presidency by John Oakson, who had been the Society of Pachacamac's unsuccessful candidate for president of the Men's Student Council. During Oakson's administration, the membership jumped to 550 members and the Association's activities were greatly expanded. The I.S.A. organized independent intramurals, districted the independent houses, and inaugurated a series of weekly dances.
Under the new administration, membership fell off to 300. Because of a lack of funds, activities were curtailed, and the actual life of the association was threatened. In the fall of 1940, things began to look brighter and membership picked up.
A new president, Fred Robertson, was elected last month, and now the future of the I.S.A. seems assured. An independent newspaper has been organized; new social clubs for independents are being formed; and the I.S.A. is once more planning to build up independent intramurals.

Student Paper of THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Subscription rates, in advance, $3.00 per year, $1.75 per semester. Published at Lawrence, Kansas, daily during the school year except Monday and Saturday. Entered as second class matter September 17, 1910, at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1879.
The first complete skeleton of a fossil rhinoceros ever set up in any museum — that is one more thing that makes Dyche Museum outstanding among university museums.
Dyche Provides Setting For Fossil Rhinoceros
Rhinoceroses of various kinds were once abundant in North America. Large herds roamed the river valleys and plains of western Kansas during the lower and middle Pliocene periods about 20 million years ago. At that time, however, the climate in western Kansas differed greatly from the present climate. Greater rainfall made possible $ ^{ \textcircled{4}} $
the growth of many trees, shrubs, and grasses, giving the country semi-tropical vegetation.
The specimen in Dyche was found in a stream bed containing hundreds of these skeletons, three miles south of Long Island, Kan., in 1891. In 1893 it was mounted and set in Dyche as the first complete skeleton of this animal ever mounted.
These Kansas rhinoceroses were rather large, standing about four feet high, six feet long, and weighing approximately 1200 pounds. Another rhinoceros skeleton, much smaller than the Kansas specimen and of a different species, was found
in Nebraska and will be set up in Dyche. This smaller rhinoceros lived approximately 25 million years ago.
Orville Gilpin, a preparator in paleontology from Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, is mounting the specimens, and Walter Yost, fine arts graduate student, has painted a large picture showing the Kansas rhinoceros in his natural surroundings as a background of the exhibit.
These specimens are part of the new exhibits added to the ground floor of Dyche museum which will be reopened this spring in connection with the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration.

K.U.Must Win To Claim Clear Big Six Title
By DON H. PIERCE
Kansan Sports Editor
With one eye out for a red whirlwind from the south and the other toward a possible N.C. A.A. Western playoff berth, is cautious Kansas Jayhawker is hard at work in preparation for its all-important conference fracas with Oklahoma's Sooners in Hoch auditorium at 7:30 tomorrow night.

Let's Think Before We Boo
(A Kansan Editorial)
Tomorrow night in Hoch auditorium, University basketball fans will learn whether their beloved Jayhawks will win another undisputed Big Six championship or whether they must share the honors for 1941 with the Iowa State Cyclones.
Whatever the outcome, it will be an exciting game, climaxing a season full of close and hard-fought contests. At times, feeling toward the officials and opposing players may run high.
Before this year University basketball crowds have been known throughout the Big Six as probably the best-behaved groups in the conference. However, this season, Jayhawk fans have given vent to their feelings frequently and in a manner which has attracted unfavorable comment from many points in the Big Six and Missouri Valley.
The over-enthusiastic Jayhawk fan might keep two thoughts in mind as he pushes his way toward a seat in the bleachers tomorrow night. Win, lose, or draw, the battle with Oklahoma is only another basketball game, not an event of world-shaking importance. And whatever prominence Dr. F. C. Allen's athletes have brought to the University may be more than counteracted by the criticism which another referee or opponent-baiting demonstration will draw.
Partly cloudy and warmer.

Maestro Marjorie's Coeds To Take Initial Swingout
B<sub>Y</sub> SARALENA SHERMAN
Swing from the fairer sex viewpoint will be dished out when Marjorie Henry's K.U. Coeds make their debut at the Corbin hall hour dance from 7 to 8.
Composed of 14 pieces and a vocal trio, the band hopes to find a happy medium between Ina Ray Hutton's jitter-time and Phil Spitalty's lullaby music.
The group is made up of four saxes, two trumpets, two trombones, two violins, and three rhythms—piano, drums and bass viol. The three vocalists are Patty Ledyard, fine arts junior. Marybelle Long, and harriet Blythe, both fine arts sophomores.
"Along Santa Fe Trail" is the theme song to be used by the band until an orchestration can be made of an original number composed by the pianist, Betty Buchanan, fine arts junior.
They Practice Anywhere
Specialties during the dance are to be a song by Patty Ledyard singing "The Man I Love," and
"Moon Indigo" and "Margie" sung by the trio.
Every day for the last four weeks the girls have been practicing at least an hour. On Saturdays they practice all day with only time out to snatch a sandwich, and on Sundays they spend all afternoon. They practice almost anywhere, including Hoch auditorium and Fraser theater. Last night they blew their notes in Frank Strong basement
Maestro Marjorie, promoter of the organization, has been scouting about the campus since early last semester in search of capable members. She advertised in the Kansas for a singer and had a total of 22 applicants for the job.
To Play at K. State
March 14 the band will play at the Engineer's banquet held at the Eldridge hotel before the Hobnail Hop. It is also booked to play at the Alpha Kappa Lambda spring party at Kansas State.
Three years ago an attempt was made by Dorothy Gehret to organize an all-girl band on the Hill but it was unsuccessful because of lack of interest, funds, and cooperation.
This year the K.U. Coeds are striving to obtain all three.
Miss Meguiar To Be There
Marjorie has been a constant visitor at the office of Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, to insure that the band would not sidestep toward the blonde bombshell sort of band. Both Miss Meguiar and Miss Marie Miller, her assistant, will be present at the band's first appearance tonight.
Marjorie, a fine arts sophomore, has her hair cut in a boyish bob and feels most comfortable in a pair of slacks and plaid wool shirt. She has been directing for more than five years and is able to play almost anything. In Robinson, Kan., her home, she used to conduct a 50-piece concert band.
During her two years at the University she has lived at Corbin hall, where she "slings hash." She plays accompaniment to the dancing classes held in Robinson gym.
The band has received publicity in several school papers. A picture of the group appeared not long ago in the Kansas City Journal and a write-up was printed in a recent issue of Crowds Magazine, a theatrical publication.
Sig Ep's Will Hold Ruffet Supper Tonight
Thursday is buffet night. Tonight the Sigma Phi Epsilon house is in the limelight with a buffet supper to be followed by an hour of dancing to Clayton Harbur's music.
At Corbin hall there will be an hour dance. The bigger slice of student population will spend the evening quietly, however. Possibly with a pine and a dog. $ ^{2} $

To Start Production of Earth Blocks For New Lab
Foreman and NYA Workers--in a shed a few feet west of the auditorium for storage. An occasional load is tested by W. C. McNown, professor of civil engineering, or his assistants, for water content. Water Must Be Drained
A
Foremen and NYA workers on the Engineering Research laboratory are making last-minute preparations for starting into the production of the earth blocks used in the new building.
A tentative production schedule has been set up, and work will probably begin by the end of this week or the beginning of the next.
The "block-factory" in the basement of Hoch auditorium will combine an age-old industry with modern theories and production techniques. The earth is brought in from a glacial deposit about three miles east of Lawrence. It is placed
A recent test showed that two yards of earth contained almost a barrel of water. All of this water must be drained out of the earth so the correct amount of water can be out in during the mixing process.
After being tested and taken to the basement room the earth, which is almost orange in color, is laid out on screened tables to a depth of about two inches to facilitate drying.
When dry enough, the earth drops through the screening to another bin. Then the proper amounts of earth, cement, and water are measured and blended in a small, electrically-operated mixer. Shaped in Wooden Forms.
The blocks will be shaped in wooden forms. After considerable experimentation for the most efficient type of form, one made of oak treated with parrafin was adopted. Each of these forms can turn out three blocks at a time, and eight will be used. Two men will operate each form.
As the face of the block will be of better quality material than the rest
of the block, it will be made first. Then the rest of the block will be made. When finished, the blocks will be carted into a curing room. This was the room formerly used to house the anti-aircraft gun, now placed in a shed east of the auditorium.
Placed in Rack For Day
A rack containing 23 compartments is set up in this room, and the blocks will be placed in this rack for a day. Then each day's production will be moved out and placed in separate piles on the floor, and a card with the date of production will be placed beside them.
--- End of the Week
A certain degree of moisture will be maintained in this room to prevent the blocks from drying and thus cracking or crumbling before they have a chance to harden. The blocks will be used in the building in the order of their production so that all blocks will be given enough curing.
Foremen on the project estimate that the production of blocks will be about 300 a day during the early days of production. As time goes on, however, better production methods may be found, and production may reach 500 a day. Approximately 40,000 blocks will be used in the work.

Auditions before Stokowski and a chance for appointment to the All-American youth orchestra will be the lot of Eugene Ninger, fine arts junior, and Robert Forman, fine arts junior, when they go to Kansas City's Music hall tomorrow morning.
Nininger will play the violin for Stokowski, and Forman will play the oboe and English horn. These auditions, unlike last
year's Kansas City auditions will be for final selection. If Stokowski nods his head and says "Hm-m, not bad—" when he hears the two University boys, then the auditions are over and the all-American youth orchestra has gained a member or members from the state of Kansas.

Alec Templeton, blind concert pianist who is to appear on the University Concert Course next fall, has filed suit against his parents in the Chicago circuit court for an accounting of an estimated $200,000 in earnings. He also seeks an injunction to restrain his parents from using any power of attorney he may have signed.
Although Templeton has allegedly made $200,000 since he became 21 years old in 1930, he has received only $100 a month for living expenses with an additional $2,000 since last September.
The suit also charges that various accounts recently requested by Templeton from his parents are "inadequate" with respect to his income and earnings.

sports AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
Even at this premature date Gwinn Henry, who sent spring football candidates thru their first official workout on Monday, will tell you that if he is blessed by the return of all present hands next fall Kansas will have one quite capable eleven to trade blows with Big Six gridiron giants in 1941.
And after taking a squint at the material cavorting on the freshman field even the most pessimistic Jay-hawker fan, yes even the three boys of the now famous "Give it back to the Indians" letter who live just across the way on Mississippi street, is forced to admit that for the first time the canny grey eagle of Mt. Oread gridironology may turn up with something by pumpkin time next October.
Main worry for Henry right now, however, is that ever present spring bugaboo of practice cutting, especially likely to break out among ego-edged freshman material.
"It usually takes boys a year or two to learn that spring practice is very important," commented Henry. "Already some of them have missed a night or two or have failed to check out a suit; we'll have to waste a lot of time going over back practice stuff for them. What is hard for the boy to understand," he continued, "is that if he doesn't work hard in the spring his chances for playing in the fall are cut down considerably.
"Of course boys of this type are bound to blame the coach when they don't get to play much in the games. Football is one of the hardest of all sports to learn and here at Kansas there is little time to spend teaching it. That means we've got to work hard when we can."
At present Henry is tinkering with a formation which has been tabbed by many as the modification of the revived "T" but which actually is a variation of the old close double-wing. Fans have seen it here for the past two years.
Instead of the double tailback, which the old formation had, Henry now has his quarterback squarely behind the center in the common "T" formation style, but with the tailback four yards back and to the left and the two wing backs still wider.
Present prospects are undoubtedly much brighter than they have been for years. But it will take more than new formations and new men to build a club which can give conference opponents a headache every Saturday.
"As We See It" urges player reverence of one word in this spring's football drills, conscientiousness. Conscientiousness plus not one failure to attend practice, a constant maximum of effort and a desire to lift Kansas football to a plane of respect.
For if the present crop of yearlings and veterans do not care to be bothered with such things and are satisfied in merely making an east-bound traveling squad, trainer Dean Nesmith might as well sprinkle a few more mothballs on the stored-away game suits.

Aside from helping the Jay- hawkers toward a Big Six title when Kansas meets Oklahoma in Hoch auditorium tomorrow night, seniors, Bobby Allen and Howard Engleman will have one more chance to spread-eagle the conference scoring field. Engleman, who has already broken the four year old league scoring record, can give future stars something to shoot at by extending his 158 point total still farther while Allen needs 11 tallies to clinch second place among the loop's point- getters.
Beta's To Playoffs; Whip Acacia, 39-22
With Bill Geiger hitting the hoop consistently, Beta Theta Pi finished the season last night with a 39 to 22 win over Acacia. It was the eighth Beta victory in 10 starts and assured them of a playoff berth.
The Beta's moved in front impressively 18 to 5 in the first half, stayed even with the Acacia's in the second half scoring, and won by a 17-point margin. Standouts in the Beta lineup were Geiger and Bob O'Neil while Ned Martin sparked the losers offense.
Bob Weaver led the Delta Tau "B" to a 26 to 16 triumph over Sigma Nu "B", with five goals and one free throw. The Delta Tau's season record is six wins and two losses.

A.A.U. Meet Next Stop For Track Team
After the end of the indoor season, and before outdoor competition commences, there is a lull in track activities. However the University trackers still don warm-ups and work out on the track under Memorial stadium late every afternoon to improve their form and endurance.
Coach Bill Hargiss plans to send a few men to compete unattached in the A.A.U. meet in Kansas City, March 24. With that exception, the next meet in which the Jayhawkers will participate is the Texas Relays.
"Our budget allows us to send a few boys to the Butler Relays in Indianapolis, but we felt it would be better to pass that up so we can take more boys to the Texas Relays," Hargiss said.
Weight Men Get Attention
Until the Texas carnival, Hargiss will be drilling the new men and freshmen on fundamentals and leaving the veterans more to their own resources.
Last night the head track coach spent most of his time with weight men Ralph Schaake, Larry Finney, and Ed Linquist, who were practicing the shotput and discus. Ray Harris, champion miler on last year's team, was putting the runners through their paces. Stoland Should Be Okay
Hargiss felt that Bob Stoland, his ace high jumper and broad jumper.
"Usually a pulled muscle close to the knee will shelve a track man for the season," the track mentor said. "But Stoland's injury is higher on the leg and he has shown so much improvement in the last few days, I believe he will be ready."
21 Frosh Apply For Relay Posts
A total of 21 freshmen, including an anonymous one, have made applications for the six freshman positions on the student committee in charge of the Kansas Relays, April 19. Dr. E. R. Relbel, associate professor of physical education, announced this afternoon. One applicant neglected to sign his name.
"Appointments to the committee will be made through personal interviews and the names of the successful applicants will be announced next week." Elbel said.
The list of freshmen who have applied includes George Phillips, Bill Brownlee, Claude White, Bill Porter, Dale Ewing, John W. Wood, Joe R. Engers, R. J. Atkinson, Bob Martindell, E.Jward Boddington, John J. Anderson, Gerald O. McDonald, W. C. Hartley, Jack F. (continued to page five)

The election will take place next Wednesday.
Brazilian Pianist Plays Monday
Guiomar Novaes, brilliant pianist from Brazil, will attempt to cast her spell over a concert audience in Hoch auditorium when she plays there at 8:20 Monday evening.
Mme. Novaes began playing marches at the age of 4. A year later she studied with Chiaffarelli. At 7 she made her first public appearance, which was followed by a tour of her native Brazil.
Here fame spread, officialdom became interested, and the Brazilian government sent the young girl to Paris. She was admitted to the Paris Conservatoire, winning first honors from among 388 contestants. For two years she worked with Isidor Philipp, after which she was awarded the Premier Prix du Conservatoire.
At 16 she made her debut as a mature artist. Engaged by the leading orchestras of Europe, she was an immediate success. Recitals in London, Paris, Berlin, Munich, Milan, Switzerland and other countries followed—a triumph tour.
Her debut in this country was an immediate sensation. She has toured the country several times since then.
Pachamac Girds For Election
Palcing their personal comfort secondary to the importance of getting the spring election campaign started early, the members of the Society of Pachacamac battled their way up the Hill through the heavy snow drifts last night to hold their first pre-election inner circle meeting of the campaign.
Chief business of the meeting was the appointment by Gene Whetstone, president of the Pachacamac nominating committee to draw up a slate of candidates for the spring Men's Student Council election.
Students appointed to the committee were Joe Brown, Harold Haney, Scoot Somers, Bill Buzick, Bob Thomas, David Whitney, Hunk Hillmer, John Weatherwax, Bob McKay, Fred Coulson, Bill Douce, Dorus Munsinger, Lane Davis, Jim Arnold, Dick Mankin, and Gene Whetstone.
Party members also discussed plans for the spring initiation to be held Sunday, March 16. All Pachacamacs desiring to become members of the inner circle have been asked to get in touch with one of the party officers.
Marshall Leaves Soon For Duty In Chemical Service
T. H. Marshall, head of the department of chemical engineering, who was granted a year's leave of absence for active duty with the chemical warfare service yesterday by Chancellor Deane W. Malott will leave Lawrence about March 10 for Edgewood arsenal, Edgewood, Md., to begin his duties.
Marshall retains his commission as captain of field artillery. Official orders state that he will be released from active duty so that he will return to Lawrence March 9, 1942.
Marshall plans to drive to the East and will be followed later by Mrs. Marshall and the Marshall children, Judith Ann, Charles, and Jacqueline.

Save The Philharmonic
The superb concert of the Kansas City Philharmonic Tuesday brought home to the people of Lawrence the importance of retaining this great orchestra. In the few years that Karl Krueger has been director of the organization, he has built it up to the point where it ranked with the five or six fine symphony orchestras of the country.
Now increased taxes, reduced revenues on endowments, and increased operating expenses threaten the very existence of the orchestra. Unless a new financial basis is devised within the next week or two, this season will be the Philharmonic's last. More money is needed, and needed promptly.
THURSDAY, MARCH 6, 1941.
Disbanding the Philharmonic would be a serious blow to the culture not only of Kansas City, but of the entire middle west which takes pride in having the orchestra and delights in hearing it whenever possible. Our concert course at K.U. would seem incomplete without the usual visit of the orchestra.
Last year, when the Metropolitan Opera was having financial difficulties, leaders appealed to the average lover of music for contributions of one dollar each—and they raised something like a million dollars. The Met is still with us. Surely the Philharmonic has enough friends willing to give a dollar or two apiece so that its life may be saved. Even if the concert season in Kansas City would have to be shortened, it would be worth a lot of effort to maintain the orchestra intact.
The Price Is Small
Ten per cent of those who took the flu vaccine a few weeks ago have not returned their questionnaire cards. This means that 80 persons are preventing the tabulation of the results of the experiment.
Dr. R. I. Canuteson, head of the student health service, said yesterday that the results of the experiment will undoubtedly be very interesting. By "interesting" Doctor Canuteson probably means that the vaccine is a success.
But no one can tell how the experiment turned out until all those vaccinated return their data cards. It seems only fair that those who received the vaccine without charge should report how well the vaccine worked.
This experiment was not limited to the University. The Rockefeller Foundation sent out the vaccine to numerous institutions. The only pay they ask is that the results be sent back to them. The price is small in exchange for two months free of colds and the flu.
The Japanese Problem
Will the mounting tension in the Pacific result in warfare between United States and Japan?
Should Japan strike at Singapore or at interests considered vital to this country, our navy has four possible courses of action, according to naval strategists: (1) The fleet could be based at Singapore; (2) Britain and the United States could place a naval and economic embargo on Japan; (3) our fleet could attempt to intercept the Japanese fleet while it was
Military experts in this country, since the World War, have warned that our next war would be with Japan. To support this contention, they point to the fleet based at Pearl harbor. It can be used extensively in the Western ocean but can, in an emergency, be taken to the Atlantic through the Panama canal.
far from its home base; and (4) the American fleet could try to attack Japan.
The third possibility seems the most logical. To base our fleet at Singapore would weaken our defense of the Atlantic coast. Japan would be vulnerable to an attack only in the air, since it has great defensive strength on the sea. An embargo might be tried if the Japanese navy refused to clash with ours, but the interception of the Japanese fleet at a considerable distance from its base is thought to have a greater chance of success. Our fleet would accept the British invitation to use the Singapore base. This clash would be a direct test of strength, and the outcome would depend on which is the stronger navy.
President Roosevelt seems to feel that if we can convince Japan and Germany that this country has great offensive power, it will lessen the chances of open warfare with the Axis powers.

Student Paper of THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Lawrence, Kansas
Subscription rates, in advance, $3.00 per year, $1.75 per semester. Published at Lawrence, Kansas, daily during the school year except Monday and Saturday. Entered as second class matter September 17, 1910, at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1879.
You Said It
The editor of the Kansan welcomes letters of opinion from students and faculty members to be published in the letters column. If the writer wishes, his name will be withheld, but the Kansan must have the names of all writers of letters—
Editor of the Kansan:
Last Sunday you ran a letter by Dave Watermulder which bewailed the fact that the University has only allowed one point of view to be expressed regarding the present world crisis.
regarding the present work.
I should like to point out to Mr. Watermulder that John T. Flynn, isolationist-economist, presented the other side of the matter long before Sin Norman Angell made his speech.—Respectfully, J. V.
Editor, The Daily Kansan:
Mine but to opine, but why isn't there a weekly book review column in the Kansan? Since 90 per cent of its readers either seek or dispense knowledge, supposedly, I feel the high brow viewpoint wouldn't hurt anything or anybody—J. Dodderidge, c'42.
A "No Parking" sign was given to Mary Millson for Valentine's day by Phi Psi Jack Parker. Recent object of great interest has been the sign in the Gamma Phi hall, undusted. Lack of interest in the sign, say those who know, could be connected with lack of interest in Parker.
ROCK CHALK TALK
Horace Mason, University sports publicity man, predicts that Kansas will win easily from Oklahoma Friday night. But he also predicted we would lose to Nebraska.
By HEIDI VIETS
Clarence Ketterman sleeps in a bottom bunk at the Rock Chalk Co-op. Bob Hoods sleeps above him. Niles Gibson thought and 'thought, finally worked up a comment. "Ketterman," he said, "don't you get a lot of grease off the engine, sleeping under the Hood every night."
Dorothy May's picture was in the rotograve section of the Kansas City Star Sunday. Yesterday she started receiving fan mail—a post card with her picture from the Star pasted on it, and a message of simply "Hello," with no name.
"You have a good memory, Senor Buhler," said Professor Elliott. "You should be able to remember your Spanish lessons as well."
When Prof. Maude Elliott asked her Spanish I class if anyone knew the names of the books in the Old Testament, Everett Buhler popped up, took a deep breath, and chanted off. Then he took a deep breath and started on the New Testament, almost finishing it.
Gazing into the crystal ball is still in style. Margaret Meek and Letha Eppery went to Emporia Tuesday afternoon to have their fortunes told.
After the Sophomore Hop here, for instance, Fey found two tickets which had not been used. "No good," he thought, and tore them up. Two days later it was announced that whoever held the unused tickets could collect $4 for them. Fey was unhappy.
Last weekend Fey and Mary McLeod went to Kansas City to see "The Man Who Came to Dinner." Before the play began they ran into Bill Bailey, '40, and Helen Bode, last semester, in the lobby. Then they all met Bill Waugh and Mary Jane McCoy, both '40. All good friends, they visited and wished each might have known the others were coming so that they could have bought tickets together. They were ushered in. All six of their seats were side by side.
The Co-ops have adopted another Model T. This time it belongs to Bob Fluker in the Rock Chalk Co-op. Reports are that it needs a little bailing wire and love, but will soon be on its wheels.
Four girls stood at the top of Fourteenth street this morning and watched a shiny red apple roll leisurely down the hill. Their attitude showed fear that another beautiful friendship with a professor was ruined.
Marion Reed is becoming noted for unsuccessful relations with the slot machine in Brick's. Unlike her father, she will probably never be a banker, although she might be wise to marry one.
Gray Dorsy arrived an hour late at the concert Tuesday night. He set his alarm clock wrong and overslept on his after-dinner nap.
Bill Fey maintains that tickets are his luck symbol. But sometimes they're good; sometimes they're bad.
"Is War With Japan Inevitable?" will be the question discussed by students attending the weekly Town Meeting of the Air at 8:30 o'clock tonight in the main lounge of the Memorial Union building.
Town Hallers To Discuss War With Japan
Authorities speaking on the problem will be Chester H. Rowell former editor of the San Francisco Chronicle; Major-General David P. Barrows, soldier, traveler, author, and former president of the University of California; and Tully C. Knoles, president of the College of the Pacific.
Bill Everett, college sophomore, will lead the discussion following the broadcast, which originates in the San Francisco Opera house.
Ten File Entries With Buehler For Oratorical Contest
Ten persons have entered the oratorical contest on "American Youth and Democracy" to be held March 18 by the debate council, E. C. Buehler, professor of speech, said this morning.
Length of the orations has been shortened from 10 to eight minutes. Orations are to be original and entrants must apply to Buehler by tomorrow afternoon. The contest is open to all University students.
Thirty dollars in prizes will go to the three winners of the contest which will be judged by three faculty members. Winners of the contest will form a team to speak before clubs and civic organizations,

Shakespeare didn't know the half of it!
...when he wrote
The Bard of Avon was right about the rose—its name is unimportant. But if he'd had anything to do with naming telephone exchanges, he'd have learned a lot!
Names must be easy to pronounce and transmit—must not look or sound like other exchange names—must not use the same dial finger spaces.
Why not telephone home often? Long Distance rates to most points are lowest any night after 7 P. M. and all day Sunday.
Take MUIR and OTIS, for example. Fine!—except they dial alike! For the first two letters of each appear in the same finger spaces on the dial.
Often hundreds of names are listed, studied, discarded before one is found that meets all requirements. Such care in every phase of Bell System work helps to make your telephone service the world's finest.

News From Page One
ALLEN'S TALK---would throw the Allenmen into a tie for the conference championship with Iowa State and eliminate all chances of landing in the Western playoffs.
Jay James will start things off in the morning with stickers and signs proclaiming "Rally Today," then will arouse students from their books and classes at 10 o'clock with yells in the halls of Frank Strong hall and the library.
Chief Wahoo in Charge
The program will be under the guidance of Big Chief Wahoo, (C.C. Carl) a witty redskin from the wilds of the downtown business district. The Big Chief will be aided in keeping the ball rolling by skits and stunts put on by the more talented members of the Ku Ku club, and by the music of Clyde Bysom's and Clayton Harbur's bands as each tries to outdo the other in whipping the students into a proper frame of mind for the big game.
The climax of the celebration will be a talk by Caoch Allen on "Your Team and Mine."
K.U. MUST WIN--would throw the Allenmen into a tie for the conference championship with Iowa State and eliminate all chances of landing in the Western playoffs.
Upset Chances Small
Chances that Bruce Drake's Sooners might pull an upset, however, are growing smaller day by day. Already crippled by the loss of six-foot four-inch Paul Heap, regular guard who suffered a broken hand last week, the Sooners received another blow last night when A. D. "Ug" Roberts, prominent sophomore forward, suffered a gashed forehead in scrimmage.
Several stitches were required to close the cut and physicians said that Roberts might not see any action against Kansas.
Big Hugh Ford, the southerner's six-foot, six-inch center, is also on the injured list with a bad charley horse, but should see considerable action.
No Jayhawk Overconfidence
Despite these injuries and the fact that the Sooners are currently in the throes of a seven game losing streak, there are no signs of overconfidence in the Jayhawk camp.
"We are working as hard for our game with Oklahoma as we would if playing Indiana for the intercollegiate championship again." Coach "Phog" Allen remarked yesterday as he sent his cagers through offensive paces on the Hoch auditorium floor.
"Even though Oklahoma is crippled and has lost seven straight games, they are still dangerous. We are looking for a tough battle." Team Not Ready to Quit
In addition to defeating Oklahoma, Kansas will also have to score victories over A. and M. and probably Creighton University of Omaha to be considered for one of the four playoff slots.
As for the N.C.A.A. playoffs, Allen explained that he favored calling it quits after the Jayhawkers' closing contest with Oklahoma A. and M. here next Tuesday, but said that he had left the matter entirely up to the members of the team who so far have expressed a desire to play in the affair if they earn the right to do so.
Scheduled to open in the place of Sophomore Guard Marvin Sollenberger, who is slated to see no more service this year because of glandular fever, is T. P. Hunter, the black haired lefthander, who has performed capably at forward
and guard all season.
Hunter to Guard Ford
Allen said he would put Hunter on Ford, who is one of the loop's toughest under the offensive basket.
"Hunter being an Oklahoma boy, ought to have plenty of fun guarding Ford," Allen exclaimed.
The remainder of the lineup will remain unchanged with Howard Engleman and Charles Walker or Vance Hall at forwards, Bobby Allen at center and John Kline at the other sentinel.
"O.U. Mentor Bruce Drake will probably open with Garnett Corbin and A. D. "Ug" Roberts at forwards, Bill Bentley, a six foot three and a half inch footballer at center and Allie Paine and Bill Richards at the guards.
On Roundtable Debate British Aid
Whether or not the United States should undertake all-out aid to Britain immediately will be the subject discussed by the University Roundtable at 9:30 o'clock over Station KFKU.

Jayhawks Lose to O.U., 45-37; Drop Into Tie for Big Six Title
Corbin and Ford Spark Oklahoma In Upset Victory
By DON H. PIERCE
Kansan Sports Editor
A torrid bunch of redshirts from Oklahoma swept out of Soonerland tonight to blast a proud Kansas Jayhawker out of undisputed claim to the conference championship and a possible Western N.C.A.A. playoff berth as they scored a 45-37 triumph before a dismayed overflow crowd in Hoch auditorium.
A poker faced forward named Garnett Corbin and Hugh Ford, a limping giant, spelled victory for the Sooners.
Corbin rained in eight goals from long range and added a pair of free throws for 18 tallies while Ford jammed home 17 points in addition to a merciless rebound domination of both backboards.
The loss, the Jayhawkers' second of the year to Oklahoma dropped the Kansans into a tie for the loop crown with Iowa State and established the Cyclones as the Big Six nomination to meet the Missouri valley champion for the right to appear in the Western half playoff in Kansas City, March 21 and 22. Both teams boast the same won and lost record but the Iowaans' offensive-defensive margin is some 40 points better than that of the Allenmen.
Creighton's Bluejays by virtue of their 51-37 thrashing of a scrappy Washburn five in Topeka tonight,
carried off the Valley championship and will undoubtedly represent that loop against Iowa State.
Grab Early Lead
After Sooner guard Bill Richards potted a short two hander from the corner, Kansas hopped off to what many thought was the beginning of the end as Vance Hall, T. P. Hunter, and Howard Engleman sent the count to 6 to 2.
But from then on the first half show was all Ford and Corbin. The two matched goal for goal before Charlie Walker, Kansas guard, could break through with a tip-in to bring the count to 17 to 8 with eight minutes remaining.

"Never light a match in a basement!" was the message Marvin Thompson, college freshman, gave all students yesterday.
Thompson received severe burns in an explosion, Feb. 11, at the Lavery Insurance agency, 1407 Mass. St.
Since that day, Thompson has been at Watkins Memorial hospital under the care of Dr. D. G. Holcomb.
"I had to go through a room, run up a flight of stairs, through another room, a door, a room, and another door before I could roll to put the flames out," he ___
Canuteson Explains Burns
In explaining the second degree burns which Thompson received, Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the hospital, said, "It is the extent of surface burned which determines the seriousness of the burn. If one third of the body is burned, generally the patient will not survive."
Canuteson explained that burns are classified as to depth. First degree is slight with no destruction of skin. A second degree burn is destruction of the skin only with blistering. When the skin and tissue underneath is affected, it is a third degree burn.
The physician said, "The extent of Thompson's burns were second degree of entire head with the exception of the scalp, all of both arms and hands, the entire back down to waist, and the sides of the chest."
Thompson had third degree burns at the base of his neck and chin where his collar caught fire.
According to the health director, there are two dangers that a burn may kill a person: immediate shock and infection. The shock is tissue destruction and abnormality of blood supply. Since the skin is one of the best protective devices, infection can easily set in.
To combat shock, Thompson was

Kansas City, Mo., March 7—(UP)—Kansas and Iowa State, the top ranking teams of the 1940-41 basketball race, today took four out of the five positions on the All-Big-Six conference team selected by the United Press. Each team placed two men on the honor quintet and Nebraska, which finished in third place in the standings, rated the other berth.
The two Jayhawker nominations were for Howard Engleman, who broke the conference individual scoring record for one season and for Robert Allen, son of Coach Forrest C. Allen. Both were selected unanimously by the six conference coaches and the sports writers who participated in the picking of the team.
Fitz. Held Selection Tough
The Iowa State players, Albert Budolfson and Gordon Nicholas, failed to rate all of the votes principally because their team contained so many outstanding players that it was difficult to single out the two which seemed most valuable. Even Coach Louis Menze of the Iowa State quintet, admitted that he had pondered at length all season to determine which of his varsity regulars were the most consistent, in determining his starting lineups.
Selection of the fifth player, likewise was almost a toss-up proposition since Nebraska's two rangy guards, Don Fitz and Sidney Held were almost "identical twins" in everything that they did. They are of the same weight and height, each is a deadly long shot artist, each has brilliant competitive spirit and they rank with the best defensive players of the nation. Fitz got the call because he was a little superior in handcuffing high-scoring opponents.
No M.U. Place
The second team players are both taller and heavier, but lacked the consistency which marked the work of the first five. Two Oklahoma players and one each from Nebraska, Iowa State and Kansas State rated spots on the second team. Only last place Missouri
failed to place a man on either quintet.
A. D. Roberts, the nervous but high scoring sophomore on the Oklahoma team and Chris Langvardt, Kansas State's spirited pressure player, were the second team forwards. Hugh Ford, the giant Oklahoma veteran, was named second team center. Held drew one of the guard berths, with the other going to Carol Schneider, Iowa State's 6-foot, 6-inch "towerhouse."
Dewey "Snorter" Luster believes that a strong pass defense can be a team's best offense.
Fiji's Trounce Battenfeld To Cop Division Crown
By CLINT KANAGA
Phi Gamma Delta, last year's intramural basketball champions, added another title to their many laurels by downing Battenfeld Hall 54 to 17 to cinch the Division II crown. The Fiji season record is nine wins against one loss.
Pacing the Fijis in their important victory were their scoring twins, Larry McSpadden and Chain Healy. McSpadden gathered 23 points to Healy's 13, to take the Division II individual scoring championship. McSpadden and Healy boast of 12.9 and 11.9 averages over the 10-game schedule.
Revenging their recent loss at the hands on the Phi Psi's the Tekes closed their season with an overwhelming 68 to 24 win over Sigma Nu. Hubert Ulrich and Chuck Dalrymple topped the point-getting with 19 points apiece while teammate Kenny Dunn rang up 15 markers. Top man for the Sigma Nu five was Ray Niblo with five goals and one free toss.
Phi Delt "B" closed the season in first place tie with Sigma Chi "B" in Division V by downing Battenfeld "B" 57 to 14. The Phi Delt's and Sigma Chi's each have won seven games and lost one. Stars in the Phi Delt triumph were John Jenkins and Jim Waugh. Jenkins gathered 23 points for high point honors.

K.U. May Lose R. Miller to Draft
Miller, whose local number is 530,
had checked out a uniform for
spring football practice earlier this
week. He had been kept out of all
sports competition this year to allow
his twice-operated knee to heal
completely.
Both basketball and football hopes for next year suffered a blow yesterday when it was learned that Ralph Miller had received a draft questionnaire from Chanute.
Howey Recommended For Tennis Coach
Richard S. Howey, associate professor of economics, was recommended as tennis coach yesterday by the athletic finance committee and Gwinn, Henry athletic director, subject to the approval of the athletic board.
It was also announced that W. H. Shannon, associate professor of economics, will serve as golf coach again this season.

Loyola of Chicago, Texas, Fordham, Temple, and Wichita each placed one man on the non-loop selection.
Only unanimous Big Six selection was Sid Held, one half of Nebraska's towering guard combination. He shoved in 24 points against the Kansans in Lincoln last Saturday.
No Doubt Held
Chester Granville, Texas big durable forward and Mickey Rottner, Loyola hotshot, rated every vote for positions on the non-loop five.
.
Accompanying Held on the conference club were Gordon Nicholas, Al Budolfson and Dale DeKoster, all of Iowa State and Kansas Aggies' back line husky, Larry Beaumont. Nicholas and Budolfson, who paced the Cyclones to a 41-29 victory over Kansas Monday, were only two off the unanimous choice beat.
Vice Rates A Berth
Filling out the non-conference elite were Bill Snyder, Temple forward, Fordham's Dick Fitzgerald, a guard, and Mel Vice, Wichita's six-foot, four-inch backline bulwark.
Other conference players who claimed consideration were Herb Gregg, Missouri, Hugh Ford and Allie Paine, Oklahoma, Don Fitz, Nebraska, and Jack Horacek and Chris Langvardt, Kansas State.

Announce Sites For Summerfield Tests
Nominate 298 Men---
Six cities, Chenute, Colby, Dodge City, Lawrence, Salina, and Wichita, have been selected as the sites where preliminary Summerfield examinations will be held this spring. Olin Templin, chairman of the Summerfield Scholarship committee, announced this morning. Saturday, March 22, has been announced as the date the first tests will be given.
To date 298 nominations for the Summerfield scholarships and 141 nominations for the women's honor scholarships have been received according to Mrs. Flora Boynton, secretary of the committee. However, at least 325 men and 150 women are expected to take the examinations, she said.
Approximately 10 women will be awarded $100 scholarships on the basis of their ratings on the tests, their high school records, and recommendations from their high school faculties. The scholarships for which they are competing are the Donnelly Honor Scholarships, the Sadie A. Lawson Honor Scholarship, the W.S.G.A. School Scholarship, and the U. G. Mitchell Honor Scholarship.
THE CARTERIAN
The 30 to 35 men with the highest scores on the Summerfield examinations will come to Lawrence April 21-22 for final written tests and personal interviews with the members of the Summerfield committee. From this group between 12 and 15 men will be awarded Summerfield Scholarships for their college careers.
The committee by whom the women's Honor Scholarships will be awarded includes J. H. Nelson, chairman; Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College; C. P. Osborne, professor of philosophy; E. B. Stouffer, dean of the Graduate School; and Elvira Weeks, professor of chemistry.
OLIN TEMPLIN . . . tests in six towns.
Members of the Summerfield committee are Olin Templin, chairman; Hilden Gibson, professor of sociology; James K. Hitt, assistant registrar; T. H. Marshall, professor of chemical engineering; J. H. Nelson, assistant dean of the College, and A. H. Turney, professor of education.
Thirteen Enter Oratorical Contest On Democracy
Harvard Dean Stresses English Proficiency
Twelve entries in the oratorical contest on "American Youth and Democracy" to be held March 18 by the debate council, were received by E. C. Buchler, professor of speech, before the deadline for entries.
On account of the number of contestants, the length of the orations has been shortened from 10 to eight minutes.
Thirty dollars in prizes will go to the three winners in the contest. The event will be judged by three faculty members.
The need of proficiency in speaking and especially in writing correct English was stressed by Luther G. Holbrook, assistant dean of the Graduate School of Business Administration at Harvard University, during a short interview this morning.
Winners of the contest will form a team to speak before clubs and civic organizations.
Palmer Writes Leading Article In Law Review
Said Dean Holbrook, "One of the most enjoyable parts of my visit to your University today has been the opportunity of chatting with Dean Lawson about the difficulties which the average college graduate encounters when he goes on to take additional
work at the graduate level.
Lack Writing Proficiency
Shoemaker to Give Language Lecture At Wisconsin
English Usage Underrated
George E. Palmer, professor of law, is the author of the leading article in the February issue of the Columbia Law Review on "Trusteeship Under the Trust Indenture."
Dean Holbrook has been visiting the University the past two days and has talked with a number of students interested in work at Harvard.
"I think it is rather common for college men, and I am sure it was true in my own case, to underrate the importance of being able to speak and write our English language in an effective, succinct, and graphic style."
"This suggestion is followed by our English department which samples the written work of every man in the school and each man whose written English does not meet our relatively high standards is required to take extra work under the supervision of the English department.
"It has been our experience that men coming to the business school have more difficulty in writing satisfactory reports than in fulfilling any other single requirement. For this reason we suggest that all men considering graduate work at Harvard take a substantial amount of work in written English in their undergraduate program.
W. H. Shoemaker, chairman of the department of romance languages will go to Madison, Wis. Tuesday where he will deliver a lecture at the University of Wisconsin under the auspices of the language department's lecture series.
The article, dealing with the makeup of a trusteeship, is an introduction to a large work to be published later, concerning powers to be granted, duties to be imposed up trustees holding security for bondholders.

The so-called Spring Opening opened as planned by the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce last night, but due to the un-spring-like weather, the crowd was much smaller than had been anticipated.
However, some hardy souls did trudge through the snow to look at windows and attend the planned entertainments.

FRIDAY, MARCH 7, 1941.
Thanks Iowa State
Last Monday night, when our basketball team lost to the Iowa State Cyclones, Howard Engleman, All-American, was held to only five points.
If it were true that there is bad blood among all the teams of the Big Six, the Iowa State paper would probably have razzed the Kansas team the next day—and Howard Engleman in particular—because Iowa State is the only Big Six team that has held Engleman down.
But that did not happen. In Wednesday's Iowa State Daily Student there appeared an editorial discussing two things—the ability of the Cyclones to play as a team and the idea that Howard Engleman played like a true All-American in the game.
There is no need to explain to Kansas fans and students the greatness of Howard Engleman as a basketball player, but there is need to point out the harmonious relations between Kansas and Iowa State in their athletic rivalry. Is there any good reason why these same relations should not be extended to all other members of the Big Six.
The editorial explained that Engleman proved himself to be a real team player. Unlike most stars, he did not rage at the opposing team when he was unable to get loose. He played coolly without losing his head. He played to win the game for his team.
Out of the Statistics Book
The editor and publisher year book for 1940 estimates that the daily newspaper circulation as of September, 1940, totaled 41,131,611 copies of which 16,114,018 were morning and 25,017,-593 were evening. The morning figure is about 300,000 above the previous high mark, the evening total is about 524,000 below the 1937 record.
Presenting the other side of an interesting case is Broadcasting, a weekly trade journal, published in Washington, which reports that there are 881 broadcasting stations in the United States and 87 in Canada in operation or under construction. The magazine estimates that there are 50,100,000 radio sets in the United States, that 11,500,000 sets valued at $390,000,000 retail were sold in 1940 and that gross "time sales" by stations and networks in 1940 totaled $201,956,000, a 21.5 per cent increase over 1939.
These facts ought to make radio men, who hate the newspapers, chortle with glee. They can safely boast now that the radio is omnipotent in the field of communications, and that the newspaper is just one of those things that can't be helped, and should be ignored.
Psychologists tell us however, that eye appeal is much stronger than ear appeal; that one's eyes are his strongest and most forceful sense perceptor. How may we account then for the discrepancy that these figures obviously point out?
One answer to the question may lie in the "hurry-hurry" complex which everyone in this country seems to have, and in the very times themselves. People figure that they can listen to the radio and still work with their heads or their hands, but a newspaper requires one's undivided attention. It's the easy way out, the line of least resistance to turn on the 10 o'clock broadcast, instead of devoting an hour's study to a comprehensive newspaper account.
One cannot deny the popularity of radio entertainment. As a medium for amusement
which one can enjoy without moving from his easy chair, it is unsurpassed. But just as newspapers are fallible, so is the radio. The spoken word slips from the mind more easily than does the written word. When one sees a word in print, his visible memory reprints a word picture in his mind. A spoken word, however, conjures up no fixed picture, and is more readily forgotten.
Radio and the newspaper must work hand in hand as a supplement to one another. They can't get along without one another, so a "Union, Now!" seems to be indicated.
Pithy paragraph from TIME: "In 1940-41, the U.S., struggling in a war of diplomacy, of sea power, and of nerves, was arming to fight Heaven-knows-whom at Heaven-knows-where for Heaven-knows-what." And Heaven-knowswhy!

No Symphochrome---
Phonoscope Projects Music's Progress
Oh, the symphochrome down.
And it made the derndest sound,
But the phonoscope
Goes on, (we hope)
Forever.
Forever.
Pardon the ditty, please, but it tells the story. The symphocrome broke down, all right. Continuous 15-minute recitals from dawn to dark during the two-day Kansas Music Teachers' convention, proved to be too much for the color-music synchronizing invention of T. D. Jones, assistant professor of design. The machine's working parts, says Professor Jones, are completely worn out, and will have to be junked.
But the phonoscope—"No, it's going as strong as ever," says Prof. W. O. Miessner, professor of education, its inventor. It, too, went through many long demonstrations for the music teachers. "It's tireless," says Professor Miessner. And it must be—he gave a demonstration before a class in Frank Strong hall with it.
The symphochrome is not lost from civilization forever, Jones hasstens to inform us. It will be completely remodeled and perhaps will be placed upon a portable base; then color and music again will be scientifically combined to provide inspiration for artists and musicians, to give pleasure to those who appreciate the finer arts, and to satisfy the curiosity of dubious persons such as reporters.
The phonoscope, used in music appreciation classes is equipped to project music information charts upon a screen. Upon the charted music, a pointing finger of light traces the progress of the score as it is played from a recording. A relatively simple system of three mirrors is connected to the record playing apparatus, and by watching
the projected tracing light-finger students can compare music as it sounds to music as it appears on the written sheet.
Five hundred musical compositions, including all of Brahm's, Tschaikowsky's, and Mozart's, have been charted and are on file with the machine. The chart guides to recorded music, relate at a glance such information as how many minutes and seconds from the beginning of a composition a certain effect occurs, what instruments are used for unusual effects. If the composition is narrative, the story is told as the music interprets the action.
A recent demonstration was of Tschaikowsky's "Fifth Symphony," which was played Tuesday night by the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra in Hoch auditorium.
Spring Varsity Tomorrow
The second in the new series of 8 o'clock varsity dances will be held tomorrow night in the ballroom of the Memorial Union building with Clyde Bysom's band furnishing the music.
Dancing will last until 11 o'clock under the new plan. The regular admission price of 75 cents will be assessed for both those with dates and stags.
Bysom's music will feature vocals by Virginia Gsell.

Among Kansas basketballers Vance Hall is the "pretty boy." Agreeing with this statement, Jane Stallings picked him as one of the forwards on a team of Big Six basketball beauties published in the Iowa State Daily Student March 4.
Here's what she said. "What girl wouldn't choose one man in a quintet for his boyish charm? The Jayhawks' Vance Hall, my selection for the other forward, fulfills every expectation along that line. Jet black wavy hair in abundance and penetrating eyes that fairly shout frankness don't do him a bit of harm. His mouth doesn't have that set hardness, either, a sure earmark of winning ways."
All we have to say is "whew!"
If you saw a girl going out of convocation this morning with a streak of charcoal on cheek or chin, she was a good rally-patriot. Before the rally started Charles Wright stood in the lobby with his face covered with charcoal and dressed in overalls and tacky hat, trying to kiss each girl that came by. But only a few submitted to this treatment.
During the rally Wright was the lad cutting capers directly in front of the stage.
Some of the Sigma Nu's jumped the gun on the weather, had their heads shorn in the crude crew manner before they were sure it was Spring. Then the freak snow storm caught them. Cases of cold heads and head colds are reported.
Beta bathers were in a quandary the other day. Someone planted tablets of methyl blue in the shower heads, and the shower water streamed out with an eerie cast to it.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott was a dinner guest at the Tau Kappa Epsilon house. After dinner he went to the kitchen, took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and began drying dishes. Any Teke who ventured into the kitchen to witness the spectacle was handed a dishtowel and drafted into work.

Maxine Miller, college senior, is one of the 18 finalists for beauty honors at the Beaux Arts ball in Kansas City tomorrow night. She went to Kansas City yesterday to stay until after the ball, which will be held at the Hotel President. From the field of 18 beauties, one will be chosen typifying the style of each of four magazine illustrators, John LaGatta, McChelland Barclay, Richie Cooper, and Bradshaw Crandall.
Yesterday was the birthday of Bill Orr, business junior, and he went to Independence to spend the weekend. Last night his Moody apartment maids called him long distance and sang happy birthday to Bill.
James Dodderidge, college junior, is in Watkins Memorial hospital because of complications resulting from an attack of pneumonia in January.
J.an Conard, college sophomore,
forgot to close the padlock on his
locker in the gymnasium recently
and returned from the shower room
to find someone had stolen the lock.
Next day he left the key in the
open locker, and when he came
back from the shower the key was
missing too. Since then Conard has
been afraid to leave his locker long
enough to take a shower.
Bob Cowgill, college senior, is confined to Watkins Memorial hospital because of an attack of flu. Among the most disappointed Jayhawk fans after the Iowa State game Monday night were the six men who drove to Ames for the game. Bob Wright, business senior, Bill Reece, business senior; Kenneth Nicolay, college sophomore; John Weatherwax, business junior; Dick Goheen, pharmacy junior; and V. W. Cline, sophomore engineer, eft Lawrence at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon and just reached Ames in time for the last half. They had egapedhed ahead to have Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen reserve tickets or them. The six loyal fans arrived back on the Hill at 5:30 Tuesday morning.

Ends Big Six Career-convinces Ford that advances in the industrial conversion of farm products are immediately ahead.

Bob Allen senior quarterback played his usual smooth floor game. He engineered the late first half rally that closed Oklahoma's wide margin. His floor leadership in the second period shot Kansas ahead. He along with Kline sparkled on defense. Closing in on Hugh Ford on the post, Allen tangled the towering center's attempted shots regularly at times.
Ford's Plastic Car Made of Farm Goods
Detroit—(UP)—Henry Ford's plastic car may widen the field of agriculture to a point where. Ford believes, all vegetation eventually will be utilized by industry.
The revolutionary use of plastics for the superstructure of an automobile would require, for 1,000,000 cars, at least 170,000 tons of agricultural products and 500,000 tons of synthetic chemicals, Ford said. Materials would include 100,000 bales of cotton, 500,000 bushels of wheat, 700,000 bushels of soybeans and 500,000 bushels of corn.
Upon the success of Ford's new venture hangs many hopes for fulfillment of his "back-to-the-farm" philosophy which for years has expounded the virtues of living close to the soil. If agricultural product outlets can be broadened, Ford reasons, farming will become a more attractive vocation to youths. Ford Convinced

Work in the Ford Chemical research and experimental laboratory
The new car will have a body composed entirely of a plastic fiber with the exception of a tubular welded steel frame. Dies for the body panels have been ordered for road test models.
Half the Weight of Steel
Robert A. Boyer, head of the research laboratory, said the plastic sheets weigh one-half as much as steel of the same size and would absorb a blow 10 times greater than steel without denting. Fenders can be broken but minor collisions which would dent a steel fender leave plastic fenders undamaged. The plastic, unlike steel, does not "take a set," Boyer explained.
Plastic panels also can be impregnated with the proper color at the time they are formed. If this process can be carried out at low cost the panels will not need paint.

JAYHAWKS LOSE —
pulled the Jayhawkers in sight with a pair of quick goals, but the cool Corbin arched three more through the meshes from the side to give the southerners a 25 to 19 halftime margin. Free throws by Buescher, Engleman, Allen, and Kline, and a one handed fielder by Kline accounted for the remainder of the Jayhawker's points.
Sudden Kansas Flurry
Kansas brought the crowd to its feet in the opening minutes of the second half as they brushed by the Sooners in a sudden flurry of point making to knot the count at 26 to 26 with only five minutes gone.
Allie Paine, Bruce Drake's brilliant sophomore guard who held Engleman to seven points for the evening, chipped in a free throw to give the Sooners the lead once again, but Allen canned a towering two-hander from midcourt to give Kansas their final lead of the contest.
Sweep To Victory
Here the tireless Sooners swept into a game winning rally which exploded 10 points in the face of a game-weary Jayhawker, wh ile Kline was adding a free toss and Allen a bucket.
Matt Zollner, substitute forward, touched off the spark with a long two-hander. Corbin followed with his first goal of the second half, and Ford bagged a recovery to run the count to 41 to 35 with only four minutes remaining.
Corbin answered the pleading Kansas crowd with his final fielder of the evening from the corner after Allen's goal.
7 FOR ENGLEMAN—
rose to the heights this season to smash the conference individual scoring record.
In 10 Big Six games as a sophomore, "Rope" maintained a 9.3 average, which was swelled considerably by one big night against the Sooners when he broke loose for 27 points.
As a junior during the regular 1940 playing season, Engleman was just another name on the roster. His record was a mere 37 counters in nine games which added up to a 4.1 average, a far cry from his present deeds. But when his trick knee came around at the end of the season, the former Arkansas City high school ace burned up the N.C.A.A. playoffs by coming through with a

Appropriation Plan Will Assure New Building
by FRED EBERHARDT
The University's hoped-for Mineral Industries building apparently seemed nearly assured yesterday when leaders in the Kansas house and senate indicated that a direct appropriation of $750,000 for new buildings at three state schools likely would be made by the present legislature.
Although no definite action was$^\textcircled{*} $
Although no definite taken, the point that the ways and means committee would recommend such expenditure was brought up in Senate discussion of the mill tax bill yesterday.
The Mill Tax Bill
The mill tax bill is a proposal to earmark a special property tax of a quarter mill levy for a fund that amounts to $640,000 a year, to be used in erecting needed buildings at the five state-supported schools. This measure has been counted on to furnish the funds for the Mineral Industries building in the event that no specific appropriation was made by the legislature.
Senator Coleman declared that action on the mill tax bill had been held up awaiting information as to whether the ways and means committee would make the direct appropriation, and that now such action seemed fairly certain, consideration of the tax levy proposal could proceed.
Senator Rolla Coleman secured the adoption of an amendment to the mill tax bill which would delay the beginning of the tax levy until 1942, because, he said, it now seems clear that the ways and means committee will take care of the immediate needs of the larger schools with a direct appropriation o $750,000.
This appropriation is apparently intended to provide for the erection of the Mineral Industries building, a library at Emporia State Teachers College and a 4-H club field house at Kansas State Agriculture College. Action Held Up
If the tax proposal does pass, the first appropriation from the new fund will be made by the 1943 legislature.

200 Coming For Art Meet March 9-15
An expected 200 high school students, art teachers, principals and others interested in art, will come to the University this week, March 9-15 for the High School Art conference and exhibition.
Independent Students Like Box Suppers
Entries for the art exhibit are coming in fast, according to Marjorie Whitney, acting chairman of the design department. Twenty schools already have submitted art work, she said, and more entries are coming in daily. Exhibits will go on display Tuesday in various buildings over the campus.
Conference To Help Students
This joint exhibition and conference has been planned to provide helpful and stimulating experience to participating students, to enable the art departments of Kansas schools to see what is being done by other schools of similar size, and to obtain constructive criticism of student work by competent judges.
Schools are permitted to enter for exhibitions examples of drawing painting, design, sculpture, craftwork, photography, and advertising designed by their students.
Work exhibited will be individually rated, and a total rating of (continued to page eight)

The W. S. G. A. election, set for Thursday, promises to be one of the liveliest contests in recent years as definite split and realignment in the old com- bines become evident. organization of th
The strongest combine would seem to be the well organized Corbin - Miller - Watkins - Kappa - Theta-Gamma Phi organization. This is the group with which the Pi Phis have broken. Evidently the Pi Phis grew tired of the power that "Mother Goose Corbin" wields over her "string of little ducklings." But, wasn't there an ugly duckling in fairy lore, too?
NUMBER 102.
Although there are only two candidates for all but one office, that of sophomore representative, women politicians declare that three definite alignments have appeared.
Apparently the instigators of the present political break-up of the old organizations are the Arrow girls of Pi Beta Phi, who have drifted away from the old Corbin hall-dominated sorority combine to support their candidates with what independent votes they can draw. Pi Plis Drift
It is interesting to note that the one race which does have three candidates entered, that of sophomore secretary, represents all three groups with Helen Wilkins, a Gamma Phi; Betty Brownlee, an Alpha Chi; and Mary Jo Cox, an independent.
The Pi Phis profess to throw their support to neither candidate for this office, but there will no doubt be a deal of vote trading before election day, since there are only two candidates and three combines for all but one office.
The Corbin combine at present favors the other presidential candidate, Doris Twente. Both candidates are Lawrence girls.

Corbin For Twente
Miss Novaes, who has appeared as solo artist with the Kansas City Philharmonic throughout the past week, comes to Lawrence tomorrow with an envied reputation to uphold. "Guiomar Novaes is one of the greatest pianists of the world," wrote the Chicago Herald-Examiner.
Novaes To Play Piano Concert Tomorrow
Student activity books will admit. Non-student admissions are $2, $1.50, and $1, and tickets may be purchased at the School of Fine Arts office, Bell Music Co., and the Round Corner Drug Store.
Guiamor Novas, celebrated woman pianist from the coffee-country of Brazil, will uphold the Brazilian tradition of producing stimulants when she presented her concert of selected piano music in Hoch auditorium at 8:20 p.m. tomorrow.
Traditional Spanish and Latin-American music will be featured in Miss Novaes' concert tomorrow night. Two sonatas by Scarlatti, two Brazilian folk songs, and two numbers by Albeniz are included in the program. The pianist also will play Chopin's "Sonata in B Minor, Opus 58," and numbers by Mozart and Schumann.

Group Will Promote Cooperatives
A University corporation has been organized to acquire suitable houses by lease or purchase, and lease or sub-lease them for cooperative houses to student groups.
With an initial group of four students, five faculty members, and a Lawrence businessman, the articles of incorporation were signed last Tuesday by a notary public. The Y.M.C.A. has already transferred $400 to the corporation and considers it as a loan for an indefinite period.
All of the profit in the Y.M.C.A. concession fund for the next two years will be used to help the cooperative houses under the association.
Purpose of the Corporation
As stated in the articles of incorporation, the association is called the University of Kansas Student Housing Association, and "the basic object for which this corporation is organized is to enable students at the University of Kansas to obtain at a minimum cost suitable living quarters, and conditions for the best physical, mental, social, and religious development."
The houses are to be operated on a non-profit basis, and all surplusures are to be used for "general stated purposes of the association." Organizers of the Corporation

It was those early concerts that trought the adoption of the "Crimson and Blue" as the University alma mater song.
The first tour was backed by Governor Robinson, first governor of Kansas and life-long friend of the University. The group appeared on a "percentage of receipts" basis under the auspices of local churches or clubs.
The next year the singers had a successful tour as far west as Salina, Hutchinson and McPherson. When they arrived in McPherson
only 25 tickets had been sold. They found a bass drum and lined up the boys with guitars, mandolins and banjos, and gave a street parade that would "put to shame any musical troupe."
In 1833 the club traveled more than 2,000 miles, appearing at towns from Kansas City to Denver.
This year's five-day tour will include Salina, Russell, Ellis, Garden City, Wakeeney, Scott City, Dighton and Herington.

Eugene Sanneman, Newman II Turned in the week's high individual scoring feat by tallying 26 points against the Dead End Kids.
Roscoe Hambric and Larry McSpadden, Phi Gams—Hambric, second team all-star last year, went on a scoring spree against Kappa Eta Kappa by hitting nine goals and one free toss while McSpadden rang in 23 points against Battenfeld, to top Hambric's performance.
Joe Fournier, Newman I—Racked up 15 points against the Hellhounds, making him high scorer of Division III with a 14.5 average, which incidentally is tops for the intramural leagues this year.
Chet Gibbens, A.K. Psi—Hit a long, looping one-hander to defeat Delta Upsilon 22 to 20 in an overtime.
Joe Laird, Delta Tau—Sank the winning basket against the Sig Eps
as the Delta Taus won 27 to 25 and also topped his team's scoring list with five field goals.
Walter Sheridan, Sig Alph—Finished the season in a scoring spree with 13 and 17 points in his final two games. Thirty points in these contests gave him a season's average of 11.0 and the Division I scoring championship.
John Jenkins. Phi Delt "B"—Poured in baskets from every angle in tallying 23 points in his team's win over B attenfeld "B".
Bill Krum, Phi Psi "C"—Gathered 22 points in his first "Sigma" team game, playing against Sigma Chi "C", the highest total for individual scoring in "C" team ball.
Alvin Hecht, Dunakin I—Turned in his finest performance of the season against the Ohio Mountain Boys in hitting eight goals and three charity tosses.
Phi Psi's Gain Tie For First; Newman II Wins
By CLINT KANAGA
Phi Kappa Psi and Newman II each gained a share of their respective division championships by virtue of victories in yesterday's intramural contests. The Phi Psis defeated Alpha Chi Sigma 45 to 29 while Newman II turned back the Dead End Kids 50 to 28.
In achieving their eighth win in ten starts, the Phi Psis depended upon the entire lineup for scoring punch, with Bill Hodge and Tom Arbuckle especially proficient in this respect. The Psis had a tough first half, leading only by a 19-14 margin at the end of the first 16 minutes. Yesterday's win deadlocked them in first place in Division I with Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Delta Chi.
Hot for the third straight game, Eugene Samneman warmed the hoop for 26 points as his Newman II registered their one-sided triumph over the Dead End Kids. Wilfred Bozeman starred for the losing outfit.
With Alvin Hecht and Harold Cunningham leading the attack, Dunakin I downed the Ohio Mountain Boys easily to the tune of 37 to 13. Hecht gathered 19 points to Cunningham's 11 tallies.
The Ichabods rated the victory column for the first time in many a moon by turning back a favored Dodger five, 38 to 26, with Lester Gronerman sparking the Ichabod offense. Gronerman topped the point-getting list with seven field goals and four free tosses. Warren Snyder was the outstanding man for the Dodgers
Pi Kappa Alpha climbed into a three-way second place tie with (continued to page five)

Kansans Hope For Revenge In Finale
Two teams whose title hopes in their respective league were destroyed Friday night, will attempt to salvage a final victory out of the 1941 season when Oklahoma A. and M. collides with Kansas in Hoch auditorium Tuesday night.
It could have been a battle to decide the N.C.A.A. playoff entry from this region, but now it is only a consolation match. `Although the Aggies trounced Drake 49-26 Friday night, their last chances of winning the Missouri Valley crown vanished when Creighton smashed Washburn the same night to catch the championship.`
The Jayhawk's hopes also flickered out the same night with their loss to Oklahoma, which gave Iowa State the right to represent the Big Six in the N. C. A. A. playoffs. Creighton and Iowa State will probably meet March 17 to decide which will enter the N.C.A.A. championships. Last Game for Seniors
The Cowboys squeezed past the Jayhawks, 30-26 in a previous meeting this year at Stillwater. In that game, the Aggies played without the services of Lonnie Eggleston, deadeye junior forward who was out with a broken hand. Eggleston has recovered since then and will be ready to start against the Allenmen. Ags Strong on Defense
While famous for their revolving offense, which operates much the same as a series of double reverses on the gridiron, the Aggies also throw up a rugged defense. Vern Schwertfeger, 6 foot, 5 inch center, plays a rebound game comparable to that of Hugh Ford's. Harvey Pate a senior guard, covered Howard Engleman like a wet blanket and held him to a meager three points at Stillwater.
Meanwhile, the Aggies and Jayhawks, runners-up in the two conferences, meet Tuesday in the final game of the season. The three honorary co-captains, Howard Engleman, Bob Allen, and John Kline, and Norman Sanneman, senior utility man, will end their collegiate basketball careers in the game.
Bud Millikan, who was given credit for interfering with Bob Allen's "feeders" to Engleman, will again start at a sentinel post. Millikan and Leroy Floyd, senior forward, both tallied nine points against Drake Friday.

sports AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
Kansas and Oklahoma A. and M., midseason favorites to walk off with their league flags. will be on the outside looking in when the fur begins to fly in the big Six-Missouri Valley playoff battle this year for the right to represent the Fifth District in the Western tourney in Kansas City, March 21 and 22.
Last year the two clubs met in a memorable collision in Wichita for the coveted honor. You know the rest of the story. An under-rated Kansas five slipped by the rugged Cowboys, went on to defeat Rice and U.S.C. in the Western playoffs, and finally beaten for the National championship by a red hot Indiana club.
Until Friday night when a courageous crew of Oklahoma Sooners engineered a stunning 45-37 upset in Hoch auditorium, Red and Blue chances for a return appearanced in Municipal auditorium looked fairly bright. But the Jayhawker fan awoke Saturday morning to find his basketball nightmare still a reality and to the awful realization that his beloved court favorites will answer the cage gong for the last time this year against Henry Iba's five Tuesday.
The Cowboys, who failed to win or share the Missouri Valley crown for the first time since 1935, found their last playoff door closed Friday night as Creighton's Bluejays rolled over Washburn in Topeka to sew up the valley championship.
Dr. F. C. Allen, who early in the season had predicted an easy win for the Jayhawkers over Oklahoma in Lawrence, was quite jovial for a beaten man yesterday. "Phog" reiterated that exactly glad to be relieved of any playoff chance for the sake of everyone concerned.
"Our true place in the final league standings should have been fourth," the Doctor said. "Instead, we finished first. I ask you what have I to beef about. We had the fightesting of kids you ever saw. They did far more than I expected of them and I'm proud to have coached them."
Even though that Kansas-A. and M. tilt may be an anticlimax to a thrilling season, don't get the idea that it won't be a hard-fought affair. It is no secret that Allen and Master Iba are near swords points any time a Jayhawk-Cowboy conclave is in.

Caught on the Rebound: Oklahoma's victory over Kansas Friday night snapped the Jayhawker's three year old home court winning streak at 27. . . Not since those same Sooners accomplished the feat early in the 1938 season had the Red and Blue tasted defeat in their own bailwich. . . The triumph also broke a seven game losing streak for the southerners who scraped rock bottom last Saturday in absorbing a 61-42 drubbing at the hands of Missouri in Columbia. . .
Sooner center Hugh Ford, who turned in his best game of the year with an awesome rebounding performance and 17 point scoring assault, pulled himself into sixth place among the conference point getters with a final mark of 9.3 . . . Bobby Allen, who needed 11 counters to clinch second place could secure only six to finish behind Iowa State's Gordon Nicholas who had 102. . . Englemar's seven point surge hiked his seasonal total to 165 which betterst the old conference scoring record by 11 points. . . The N.C.A.V.A. fathers have already tentively engaged Kansas City's Municipal auditorium for the probable Iowa State-Creighton playoff, but may shift the contest site in view of the fact that K.C. is a far off point for both schools. . . The proposed date is Monday, March 17 . . . L. G. "Lonnie" Eggleston, best of a classy crop of A. and M. forwards, has recovered sufficiently from a broken hand suffered early in the year to play an active role in the Cowboy lineup in their past four contests. . . He will open at his usual slot against Kansas Tuesday night with Gene Smelser, a methodical ball handler, as his probable running mate . . . It will be the final basketball appearance in Kansas livery for seniors Johnny Kline, Bob Allen, and Howard Engleman.

Sooner Coach Says---
Strong Pass Defense Is Great Offense Weapon
Norman, Okla., March 8.—The football team that intercepts the most forward passes will usually win the game, other things being equal, contends Dale Arbuckle, University of Oklahoma backfield coach.
Morever, Arbuckle shares the opinion of his chief, Coach Dewey "Snorter" Luster, that a great pass defense can be a formidable offensive weapon.
"If we've got a strong pass defense, we'd lois rather opponents would throw at us, than run," Arbuckle elaborated, with emphasis on the "if".
Arbuckle tabbed Oklahoma's Big Six Championship team of 1938 as a great defensive team against enemy forward passing, and the statistics dovetail with what he claims. They show the Sooners of that season intercepted 21 forward passes, four against Paul Christman of Missouri in the Oklahoma-Missouri game.
"Now, don't get me wrong," he qualified swiftly. "I'm not saying the Sooners will have a strong pass defense this fall. Nor am I chump enough to dare everybody to throw at us. I only say that if we should be successful in building a great pass defense, we'd rather play against passes than runs."
"Here's how it often works out," Arbuckle explained. "An intercepted pass not only gives you the ball and whatever gain you realize off the interception (sometimes you bring 'em back all the way for touch-downs), but you save the 40 yards they got to add into your own punt which is an additional 40 yards, or a total of 80 yards gained on the interception.
"You've got a lots better chance to get the ball when they pass on you, than when they run on you. A ball thrown in the air belongs to whoever can catch it. On the other hand, the team that runs with the ball is less liable to lose it. Even though you don't gain much on the average running play, you've still got the ball and the opportunity to run again."

What About the Working Students
SUNDAY, MARCH 9, 1941
There has been some complaint that there is no justification in attacking the present student councils because of their lack of action in solving student problems—that there are no student problems which student government has not already taken action upon.
However, among other problems facing the University body, there is one which has received absolutely no recognition by the student governing bodies. That is the problem of the working student who is exploited by unscrupulous employers and is forced to work hours that are too long for a student at wages below those paid to other adult employees.
The working student is evidently the forgotten man of student government, for his case has not even warranted the setting up of an investigatory committee.
Other universities have successfully worked out solutions to problem of the over-working student. Notably the University of Wisconsin, whose all-student council has a functioning student labor board. This Wisconsin labor board is empowered by the student council to set up minimum wage standards and maximum working hours for university students. The board has the power of calling working students out on strike to enforce its decisions upon recalcitrant employers.
Booze Is Debunked
The heyday of "wine, women and song" has disappeared, according to a recent news story in the Des Moines Register.
An example of the changed attitude of American young people toward liquor is the "deglamorizing liquor" movement which was started recently in Des Moines, Ia.
Believing that the Women's Christian Temperance Unions are for the most part too far from the pulse of youth to work efficiently with them, these young people have planned organizations of youth temperance councils in the state to strip liquor of its attractive trappings.
It is the belief of this small organization that the majority of American young people want something constructive done about the liquor problem and that if a few start the ball rolling, others will join in.
Lawrence Hogan, state Youth Temperance council president, spoke to both houses of the Iowa legislature Friday expressing the group's support of the bill on the legislative calendar which would legalize the chemical tests to determine intoxication, and the bill in Congress to control radio advertising of liquor.
This small beginning by one group of thinking young people would seem to indicate that the youth of America no longer wear rose-colored glasses in regard to the problems which confront our country. For years youthful Americans have been accused of almost every subversive action on the docket; yet in an era of free-thinking and liberality it is the America's youth who has the courage to express the conservative view-point.
What Where You're Going
The beauty of the University's campus, if you've ever noticed, is not marred by warning signs, "KEEP OFF THE GRASS." However, although the signs are lacking—and we hope the campus never will be cluttered up with them—students can in a large part help insure
the campus' future beauty for this summer.
With old man winter about ready to make his exit, warm weather will make the earth spongy underfoot. Short cuts across corners, etc., where no path was before, is a sure way of killing the grass before its had a chance to start growing. So with an eye to eliminating unsightly patches of bare earth that's sure to appear if students take short cuts across the campus, let's stay on the concrete walks and cindered paths until the robins have hatched their first younguns.—Indiana Daily Student.

Educational Lag Despite Progressivism Educators Conservative
By J. F. BROWN
Cultural lag refers to the failure to apply the fruits of scientific discovery to the production of human happiness until sometime after these discoveries have been made available by scientists. Our culture suffers from this lag and there is probably no place where it is more lagging than in formal education.
Despite all the talk about progressivism in education with few exceptions educators are ultra-conservative. Physicians have known for generations the importance of adequate physical development for general adjustment, but the admittance of physical education to regular curricular status has unfortunately not yet occurred. Psychologists have known for nearly fifty years now that both straight thinking and good acting depend on adjusted emotions, but emotional education can not be said to have properly started at all.
The great universities offer courses in everything from algebra to zymoscopy for any amount of credit, and a smattering of courses from archery to xylophone-playing for limited credit, but until recently practically no courses on the problems of every honest student's most basic interest, his emotions.
Some educators in the name of progressivism are actually reactionary. President Hutchins of Chicago believes that the aim of deeducation is training in "straight - thinking" and that this can be taught through the study of around one hundred great classics. From the discoveries of modern psychology this is so much nonsense The Hutchins philosophy of education belonged to the scrap heap of cultural lag at least fifty years before he and Professor Adler enunciated it afresh. Psychologically, that just so
Psychologists know that just as
abnormal thinking is caused by emotional maladjustment, so normal or straight thinking is impossible without emotional adjustment. The old saying that the wish is father to the thought is sound, and if the wish is the obvious father to the thought of the insane individual, it can be discovered not far back in the ancestry of the thought of the great philosophers. If the wishes are not adjusted to social reality—and it is certainly difficult to make them so ir the modern world. It is impossible that straight thinking will ensue, and in a world of social chaos straight thinking alone will accomplish but little.
Only the first beginnings have been made in emotional education. There are great difficulties because emotional education must start in the family and of all the school years the early grades are of most importance. In our society, too, there is the tendency to give over the training of little children to emotionally uneducated domestic helpers. And the financial rewards of grade school teaching are so slim and some o the prerequisites for teaching, spinisterhood for the female teacher and required courses on "when to ventilate the school room", are so insane that grade school teaching is probably much less efficient than it could be. Thus it is parents and teachers themselves who must be educated. The "mental hygiene movement" is attempting to do something for the first group and not a few educators like our own Prof. A. H. Turney are alive to the necessity of educating the second group.
In order to fulfill the promises of modern physics and biology the discoveries of modern psychology should be applied to the educative process as soon as possible. The most precise knowledge of even 1000 classics of the past won't help an individual ridden by deep-seated hostilities, guilt and resentment to think straight.
ROCK CHALK TALK
By HEIDI VIETS
At the Inter-Fraternity dance Friday night the ballroom was brightly lighted with the emblems of nine fraternities. But to those who cried for soft lights and shadows, a word of consolation. It was not as glaring as it might have been. When the A. T. O's first tried to hoist up their big Maltese cross, it came down with a crash, breaking 25 light bulbs. They couldn't find any more.
Last week a dirty little dog, specified by the boys as "mongrel collie," wandered to the Sigma Nu house. Dean Ostrum and Bill Pepperell took him in and gave him a bath. He came out white with brown spots, and cute. The whole house took a fancy to him, and he was named "Tau Tau," (from Sigma Nu Epsilon Tau Tau, full name of the fraternity but usually kept under a bushel.)
However, Tau Tau did not seem grateful for this kind treatment. The little dog wandered away again this week, perhaps to go and be hotboxed by another chapter.
Keith Criswell was not at all taken in when fellow roomers at 1121 Ohio left a note on his desk telling him to call 1671R. After a bit of pondering he concluded that it was his own number.
Once when Sig Ep boys got baseball pitcher Knute Kresie a date for Thursday night, he went to the hospital for three days. Last Thursday night he appeared at the buffet and hour dance with a date a man would walk a mile for, but with a foot infection so that he couldn't dance. Knute is black on Thursdays.

New Coed Dance Band
BOW WIND ENSEMBLE
Crowd Cheers Music of Coeds
Strike up the band!
The University now has three bands to swing out music for the Hill parties and dances.
Giving their first performance Thursday night at the Corbin Hall open house hour dance, the K.U. Coeds were received by about 275 people with general acclaim.
"Whatcha Know Joe" sung by Marybelle Long and "There'll Be Some Changes Made" sang by Patty Ledyard were the specialties most heartily received.
Thrilled and nervous by their debut, the girls drank several pitchers of water during the hour of playing. Marjorie Henry, director, explained to the dancers and listeners that the liquid was merely water to appease the dry throats of her excited musicians.
The girls were dressed in dark skirts and white blouses. Each wore a red carnation that had been presented to her by Charlotte Steel, college senior and roommate to the band's maestro. During the evening, a bouquet of flowers was presented to the band by Bernice Randell, college senior.
Members of the other bands on the Hill were present at the first performance of the K.U. Coeds to see what sort of competition they were going to have.
March 14 is scheduled as the band's next job, which will be the Engineer's banquet at the Eldridge hotel before the Hob Nail Hop.

Another one of those deadly basketball teams from the Sooner state will appear in Hoch auditorium at 7:30 tonight when the Oklahoma Aggies meet Kansas in the final game of the season.
Three times this year F. C. "Phog" Allen's basketeers have tangled with Oklahoma quintets and three times they have been denied victory. Hugh Ford and Company turned the trick twice and the Aggies once. Tonight's game will give the Kansas a last chance to dispute the supremacy of Oklahoma basketball over the Kansas variety.

For the first time since 1935, Henry Iba's Cowboys failed to grab a share of the Missouri Valley championship and were relegated to second place in the standings this year. Nevertheless the Ibamen rank high among midwestern teams as shown by a pair of wins over Oklahoma University.

Orchestra's Spring Concert Thursday Will Follow An All-American Theme
The University Symphony orchestra spring concert, which will be presented in Hoch auditorium Thursday night, will feature the music of American composers and is being billed as the "American Concert."
One American composer is Charles Sanford Skilton, professor of organ at the University. As a composer, Skilton needs no introduction to American audiences, but for many years one of his best compositions has not been heard in Lawrence.
The "Prelude to Electra" by Skilton has been honored on many occasions elsewhere and is included on the program. Music critics rank it among the best orchestral works of its kind.
Rank "Prelude" High
Better known to Kansas audiences is his "Deer Dance" which was played on the campus several years

ago by the Minneapolis Symphony. This has been chosen as a companion piece to the "Prelude." as fitting perfectly with the American plan of the concert.
Grainger Number Too
Another American composition that will be heard on this program is "Handel in the Strand" by Percy Grainger. Grainger is to appear here next summer in the role of guest conductor for the Mid-Western Music camp. "Handel in the Strand" is a fascinating clog-dance tune arranged for two solo pianos and strings.
Lorenzo Fuller, fine arts senior,
will sing the solo part of "De Glory

the Modern Choir. Clarence Peterson,
college junior, is director of
the choir and Miss Jeannette Cass,
instructor f piano and theory, will

Senate OK's Mill Tax Levy Enactment
First indications of what buildings the University of Kansas might expect to receive from the proposed mill tax fund came yesterday as the bill made progress with a senate recommendation for passage.
Not included in the tentative building program was the Mineral Industries building, since the senate ways and means committee had previously agreed to recommend a specific appropriation of $700,000 for that and two other buildings at Kansas State College and Emporia State Teachers College.
Debaters Win Third At Iowa Tourney
University of Kansas debaters, winning eight out of 12 decisions, placed third in both the affirmative and negative divisions of the University of Iowa debate tournament held at Iowa City Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
As recommended by the senate committee, the bill provides for a quarter-mill levy on all taxable property. It will raise an estimated annual fund of $640,000 to be earmarked for use in building programs among the five state supported schools according to a fixed ratio.
Numerous Proposed Buildings
Proposed buildings which Senator Rolla Coleman indicated the University might expect under the levy include a laboratory building for pharmacy and medical sciences, an education training building, fine arts building, rearrangement of present space for the department of journalism, the School of Business, and the chemical department, extension of the library stacks, and engineering shops building.
The tax levy begins in 1942 with first appropriations from the fund to be made by the 1943 legislature, (continued to page eight)
The affirmative team of Verlyn Norris, college sophomore, and John Waggoner, college sophomore, wn debates from Marquette, De Paul, Augustana, and Wichita, while losing to Creighton and Carleton.
Debating on the negative, Jim Gillie, college sophomore, and Grier Stewart, college junior, took decisions from Denver, South Dakota, Augustana and Coe, while losing to Iowa and Hastings.
Carleton University won first place in the tournament and Iowa took second place.

Will Elect One of Six Tomorrow
Students in the School of Engineering will have a problem tomorrow that they won't be able to solve with their ever-present slide rules—the problem of choosing a Queen to reign at the annual Hobnail Hop, which will be held Friday night in the Memorial Union ballroom.
Pictures of the six candidates for the crown are posted on the bulletin board in Marvin hall. Engineers cannot enter or leave without stepping into the trajectory of six high-calibre smiles.
The would-be queens are Jeanne Brock, fine arts sophomore, Kappa Alpha Theta; Dollie Newlon, college senior, Kappa Kappa Gamma; Jane Veatch, college junior, Pi Beta Phi; Betty Coulson, college senior, Gamma Phi Beta; Virginia Ford, education senior, Chi Omega; and Mary Christianson, college sophomore, Alpha Chi Omega.
Dollie Newlon, Kappa Kappa Gamma
The election will be held tomorrow from 8:30 to 5 o'clock. Members of the Engineering Council will be in charge at the polls, and will count the ballots. The counting will be "policed" by two members of the engineering faculty, one of whom may be J. J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering. The winner's name will be kept secret until during the dance, when she will be given her queenly sceptre, which—must we say—is a slide rule.
Red Blackburn and his orchestra from Kansas City, Mo., will furnish the dance music. The semi-formal dance will last from 9 to 12 p.m., and will be strictly limited to engineering students.
Three of the last four queens have been members of Gamma Phi Beta. They were Mary Katherine Dorman in 1937, Roberta Cook in 1938, and Isabelle West in 1939. Cathleen Beyer of Chi Omega, was chosen queen last year.
The long arm of the selective servive draft has agan reached into the University faculty. William B. Oliver, assistant instructor in geology, left Friday night for active duty in the coast artillery of the U.S. army

Kanaga Sees Phi Gams Sigma Chi's As Playoff Finalists
By CLINT KANAGA
Last year ye intramural writer predicted Phi Gamma Delta versus Alpha Kappa Psi in the finals of the championship basketball play-offs. Due to the fact that the prediction was correct, another pre-tourney try is in order. This corner favors Phi Gamma Delta in the final round this week with Sigma Chi as their opponent.
In the draw yesterday afternoon, Phi Gamma Delta, Phi Kappa Psi, Delta Chi, Newman II, and the Hellhounds found their way into the upper bracket with Beta Theta Pi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Pi Kappa Alpha, Sigma Chi, and Newman I in the lower draw.
In upper bracket first round play Newman II opens against Delta Chi
with the Hellhounds playing the winner while the Phi Gam's oppose the Phi Psi's in the record round.
Chi “B” Draw Phi Delt's
In the lower bracket the Sig Alpha's clash with the Beta's and Pi K.A. takes on the victor. Sigma Chi meets Newman I in the final opening contest, probably the thriller of the first round. CHI PIR Drum Dell's
Glancing over the playoff field, ye writer sees no team strong enough to topple the Phi Gam's, defending champions. In Chain Healy and
Sigma Chi "B", one-point winner over Phi Delt "B" during the regular schedule, drew this same Phi Delt crew for opening competition while Beta "B", unbeaten this year, engages Phi Psi "B". Beta "B" downed Phi Psi "B" 29 to 20 during the season.
Larry McSpadden, the Fijis have two outstanding scorers; in Roscoe Hambie and Harold Long, two classy ball-handlers who can drop in the points if their teammates fail; in Wally Hinshaw, a fine rebounder and defensive man. If any team can stop the Phi Gam's fancy passing and unguardable one-handed shots, two impossibilities, such a team might win. Chi's A Fiji Jinx
"C" team playoffs finds Phi Delt "C" battling Sigma Chi "C" and Beta "C" versus Phi Pc "C".
Sigma Chi has a remarkable record in regard to the Phi Gam's. They have given the Fijis their only two losses in the last 24 games; both by a one-point margin, 25-24 and 15-14. In Van Hartman, Bill Herer, Lander Claassen, Bob Eidson, Eldridge King, and Maurice Jackson, the Sigma Chi's have a well-balanced lineup.
One should not overlook the all-victorious Newman I five, presenting intramurals two highest scorers, Joe Fournier and Ed Vandaveer. In Tony Coffin and Marvin Vandavere the Newmans also have two crack defensive guards.
A Beta team which started the season with a whirlwind attack and then proceeded to slump, will depend upon their hot-and-cold boys Fred Littcoy and Bill Geiger. Others of note in the Beta lineup are clutch player John Fletcher, rebounder Don Pierce, and the steadiest man on the Beta squad, Harlan Altman.
Newman II hopes rest on Eugene Sanneman and Elmo Maiden, two "hot" men at present. If these two stars continue their pace of the last few games, Newman II will finish high. A fine Hellhound outfit with no star scorers but a steady, consistent team may produce a tournament upset.
Sealey Is Phi Psi Hope
Jim Sealey, long shot artist, carry the burden of the Phi Pi offense, with Tom Arbuckle and Bill Hodge heading the supporting cast. Delta Chi, hit hard at mid-season by the loss of Chuck Wenstrand and Ed Hall, depends on lanky Jim Zimmerman, Wendell Wenstrand, John Burton, and Ray Callow.
The surprise team of the season, Pi Kappa Alpha, may become the surprise team of the playoffs. With six fine players such as Bob Price, Jack Engle, Bill Atwell, Louis McCormick, Frank Nagle, and Bob Hamilton, the Pi K.A.'s may be termed as the "dark horse" team of the tournament. The Pi K.A.'s have two impressive wins to their credit, 13 to 12 over the Sigma Chi's and 30 to 23 over the Beta's.
Any hopes the Sig Alph's may have, rest upon the broad shoulders (continued to page five)
Four Tilts Open Playoffs Tonight
Beta's Meet Alph's; Newman Plays Delta Chi
TONIGHT'S SCHEDULE
9:00 Sig Alph vs Beta
9:00 Newman II vs. Delta Chi
10:15 Phi Psi "C" vs. Beta "C"
10:15 Phi Delt "C" vs. Sigma Chi "C"
Tonight at 9:15, the 1941 intramural basketball championship playoff will get under way with Newman II, co-champion of Division III, meeting Delta Chi, co-champion of Division I, and Beta Theta Pi, runnerup in Division II, opposing Sigma Alpha Epsilon, co-champion of Division I.
Newman II over the Delta Chi's and the Beta's over the Sig Alph's is the way this corner sees them. Newman II has yet to see defeat, having a record of 10 straight wins in their division. Closest game was their 20 to 18 triumph over the Hellhounds. Incidentally, the Hellhounds play the winner" of this Newman II Delta Chi game.
Sanneman a Marked Man
Delta Chi had best keep a close watch on Eugene Sanneman who has gone on a scoring spree during the last three games. Sanneman's season average is 8.4, but his average for the last three contests is 19.3. Sanneman's teammate Elmo Maiden should also be marked as a consistent scoreer. Star of the Delta Chi five is Wendell Wenstrand who performed earlier this season on the Delta Chi "B." Wenstrand has a 7.7 average for six "A" games.
Question mark team of the playoffs is the Beta five. They might go to the finals, and yet again they might lose their opening game against the Sig Alphs. With Bill Geiger and Fred Littoy “hot” the Betas won their first six games with ease. However, it remained for a substitute player, John Fletcher, to carry them to the two victories they gained in their last four starts.

Practice Problems Main Grid Worry
At present Henry is working on a formation which some have dubbed a "modified T," but which is actually a modification of the shallow double wing-back used last year. The quarterback stands directly behind the center and does most of the ball handling. The tailback is placed a few yards back and to the left, with the wing in their usual place.
Jayhawk footballers got back into the swing of things Monday afternoon with a short scrimmage. With a return to warm weather this afternoon and ideal spring practice conditions, Coach Gwinn Henry's main worry now is devising a method to get his men out for practice regularly.
C. A.A. flying courses, other classes an outside activities have kept some of the gridmen from attending practice. Even a 4:30 fencing class has prevented four or five of the men from taking spring practice.

Starting his second game of the year tonight against the Cowboys is slated to be John "The Thin Man" Buescher, sophomore forward, whose recent performances promise a top notch brand of play next year.
"Rope" Top Choice With Cyclones
Ames, March 11: Howard Engleman, leading scorer of the Big Six Conference and ace of the University of Kansas squad, was the best forward to see action against Iowa State College during the basketball season. The same ranking was given Don Fitz of the University of Nebraska in star-opponent team selections by members of the Cyclone lineup.
Engleman and Fitz, the latter at guard, were chosen both on an all-opponent lineup and an all-conference squad selected by the Cyclone cagers.
Completing the all-opponent list are Willy DeGroot of Montana State University, at forward, with Chris Hansen and Paul McCall, both of Bradley Polytechnic Institute, at center and guard.
Chris Langvardt and Jack Horacek were given equal votes to team with Engleman at the conference squad's forward positions. Both played with Kansas State. Hugh Ford of Oklahoma was ranked as the best opposition center in the league, with Bob Allen of Kansas named at the other guard post.
O.U. Spring Sports Already In High
Oklahoma's Big Six championship tennis team, studded with returning "Q" winners, also is readying itself
Norman, Okla., March 11—Spring sports at the University of Oklahoma, southernmost school of the Big Six conference, are blooming ahead of the dendellions.
Drake also has booked a trip to the Pacific coast early in April, meeting Colorado at Denver April 10, and U.C.L.A. and Southern California at Los Angeles April 14. The Sooner coach is also trying to schedule meets with Loyola and Pomona on the trip.
Sooner golf, tennis, baseball, polo, and outdoor track squads, who annually get the jump on their northern neighbors, are all hard at work.
Coach Jim Hester's Sooner polo team opens the home season here against Ohio State University March 24, and already has started riding and hitting.
Coach Bruce Drake's Oklahoma golf team, with four letter men, Ted Gwin, Charles Hutchins, Harold Lahar and Jack Pruitt, returning from last year, open their season March 28 with a dual meet against Wichita University at Norman.
Tennis Veterans Return
Although its championship $80-yard and sprint medley teams are broken up by the graduation of Half-miler Ray Gahan, and also by Spinner George Koettel's decision not to return to school, Coach John Jacobs is conditioning his Sooner track squad outdoors for the Texas Relays April 5 at Austin, Texas. One Fine Relay Team
Jacobs believes his strongest relay competition this season is his two-mile quartet of Warren Lehman, Jack Denton, Dick Smethers, and Bill Lyda.
Lehman, a sophomore, is a former Oklahoma interscholastic half-mile champion. Denton, a New Yorker, who is also a sophomore, ran the 880 back in his home state. Smethers is the newly-crowned Big Six indoor two mile champion while Lyda did 1:56.5 around six short curves to set a new Big Six 880 indoor record at Kansas City last week after he had run the 440-yard race.

For Audience of 1,000---- Novaes Concert Provides An Evening Well Spent
1
By JOHN CONARD
Had Guilomar Novaas, Brazilian pianist played nothing but the Largo to Chopin's "Sonata in B Minor, Opus 58" and "Alnilan," the second star of "The Three Mary Stars" (Villa-Lobos) for her audience of 1,000 in Hoch auditorium last night, we would have gone home feeling that the evening had been exceedingly well spent.
But Mme. Novaes did not stop with those small parts. She played 12 other complete numbers among the best of which were the two catchy,
litting, sonatas by Scarlatti, and the "Dance of the Little Soldiers," by Mme. Novaes' husband, Octavio Pinto. The dance carried the strong throbbing rhythm which we had expected in the Brazilian folksongs.
Folkson Disappointing
The first of the folksongs was disappointing. How a nation's people could whistle or sing a tune like that from generation to generation is beyond our imagination, but the latter part of the group more than made up for it.
Mozart's "Rondo in A Minor," the
opening number of the program, was characterized by a beautiful falling-rising crescendo. The first group on the program was ended by the evening's poorest number, "Papillons" (Mozart).
We mentioned the beauty of Chopin's "Sonata." Although all four movements were good, it was Largo that made us sigh like the guy who is suffering from his first attack of what a young man's fancy lightly turns to in the springtime. The sonata's finale game Mne. Novaes her opportunity to demonstrate her supreme finger dexterity. Which she did.
Encore Demand
Demand for five encères was no insignificant sign of audience enthusiasm. Mme. Novaes was most gracious about granting the additional numbers. When she finished her regular program, she bowed to her applauding audience, then left the stage. Applause did not subside, and after a reasonable lapse of time the pianist returned to play Gluck's "Dance of the Blessed Spirits."
and before the audience would rise, Novahes had to play four more numbers: "Butterfly Study" (Chopin); 'Dance of the Little Soldiers' (Pinto); "Les Binious" or "Bag-pipes" (Villemin); and "Tenth Hungarian Aphapsody" (Liszt).
Pinto's number was especially good, as was the longer Liszt rhapsody.
And by way of comment, we might add that a trip back-stage proved Guiomar Novaes to be every bit as pretty as her program pictures.
At Work In Marvin--students. The central feature of the exhibit will be the heliodon, or sun machine, designed by George M. Beal, professor of architecture. This machine is used to show the effect of the sun in providing light for buildings.
Engineers Reveal Plans For Their Exposition
In the hope of making this year's Engineering Exposition best yet, various departments of the School of Engineering rapidly are shaping their plans for their part in the exposition, which will be held in connection with the Kansas Relays April 18.19 and again June 4.5 $ \textcircled{2} $
The clapping continued incessantly.
18-19, and again June 4-5 as part of the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration.
Nine departments will have exhibits in the exposition. They are architecture, civil engineering, chemical engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, mining and metallurgical engineering, petroleum engineering, applied mechanics, and engineering drawing.
Although most of the exhibits will be of an educational nature and will stress the work done in the various departments, some of them will be on the spectacular side.
Students At Work
The department of architecture plans to give the public a glance of its students work. On exhibit will be models, sketches, preliminary plans, working drawings of buildings, and sculptural studies, all made by
Eugene Sanneman, senior engineer, is general chairman of the exhibit.
An extensive aeronautical show will be the highlight of the mechanical engineers exhibit. Students are working on a special model airplane, which will never leave the ground but will give the passenger all the
Among the features of the civil engineer's exhibit will be a model railway, built to scale, including the road bed ties, rails, bridges, and the landscaping. The display will be about eight feet long and ten feet wide.
Winner of last year's contest for the best exhibit, the department of electrical engineering, intends to live up to its reputation of staging a spectacular show. Among its displays will be photoelectric cells, an electric organ, illumination displays, and an amateur radio station. Loran Shontz, junior engineer, is general chairman in charge of the exhibit.
The department of chemical engineering will have its exhibit in Bailey laboratories. Most of the regular operations of the department will be shaw and laboratory procedures in testing fuels and lubricants will be demonstrated.

thrills of flying. In addition, the de- department will have several types of airplane engines and variable-pitch propellons on display.
Te department of mining and metallurgical engineering will show the processes necessary to convert metals from ore to finished products. The removal of impurities from coal also will be demonstrated.
All the steps from geophysical prospecting for oil to the refining process will be shown by the petroleum engineering department. Also a demonstration of the methods used in determining the quality of oil produced will be made. Dancing Doll" Also
The new hydraulic testing machine will be shown in operation in the materials-testing laboratory of the applied mechanics department.
Classroom equipment of the hydraulics laboratory will be demonstrated, and the mysterious "dancing doll" will perform. The photoelasticity laboratory will feature a display of polarized light, demonstrating its practical use in the field of engineering.
The department of engineering drawing has not announced its plans as yet, but it will have an exhibit.
The Exposition is a bi-annual show. Not regularly scheduled for this year, it will be presented because of the Seventy-fifth Anniversary program.
Meetings were held last Wednesday and Friday to unify the group in effort and methods. Each correspondent received a school calendar for the remainder of the semester and an information sheet giving various aspects of student life which might be of interest to readers of home town papers.
News for cash prizes will be the aim of student correspondents of the Statewide Activities Commission this spring. Thirteen prizes, ranging from $25 to $1, will be awarded for the best news reporting to home town papers by the correspondents.
Correspondents Aim For Prizes In News Reporting
The Correspondence bureau, under the guidance of Nation Meyer, college sophomore, was recently reorganized to increase its efficiency in sending news of University students to the newspapers of the state.
Men's Halls Establish Dorm Council
A self-governing body, much like the Pan-Hellenic which guides the affairs of fraternities and sororites, was established for the mens' residence halls Sunday night.
The representative body chosen from Battenfeld, Templin, and Carruth halls will formulate all regulations in the future which affect the halls.
The Men's Inter-Dorm Council consists of 13 men. Each hall has four men on the council with C. H. Mullen, head proctor of the three halls, as the thirteenth member. Each dormitory will have as its representatives it proctor, house president, and two elected representatives.
At the first meeting Sunday night, Dick Burge, president of Battenfeld, was elected permanent chairman of the council which will hold regular weekly meetings for the remainder of the term. C. H. Mullen was named vice-chairman, and Bob Collett, house secretary of Battenfeld, council secretary.
The members of the council include:
Battenfield hall: Clark Moots, proctor; Dick Burge, president; Dalton Eash, and Bob Collett.
Templin hall: Willis Thompkins, proctor; Ray North, president; Bob Coleman, and Wendell Thompkins.
Carruth hall-Frank Eaton, proctor; Floyd Frederick, president; Curvin Greene, and Dale Ewing.

Walt Sheridan and John Ziegel-meyer should be main thorns in the Beta defense. Both are high class offensive men. The Alphs suffered a loss when Bob Quiring, regular guard, was confined in the hospital today with a bad cold. The Alphs suffered two losses in ten starts to the Phi Psis 21-17 and the Alpha Chi Sigmas 30-23.
Phi Psi "C" should defeat Beta "C", due to the fact that they downed the Beta's in their first encounter. Stars of the Phi Psi five are Bob Barton, Bill Krum, and Jack Horner. High scorers for the Beta "C" are Tom Schwinn and Fred Olander.
The unbeaten Phi Delt "C" boasts of the most impressive "C" record. In ringing up six victories, the Phi Delts tallied 221 points to the opposition's 57. Standouts of the Phi Delt team are Jim Jenson and Dave Prager while the best men on a twice beaten Sigma Chi "C" are Jack Perkins and Gilbert Worley.

Why Fraternities?
The recent statement by the University Senate regarding the "seeming undue influence" put on fraternities and sororities leads one to inquire as to the true value of such organizations. Do they have a legitimate part to play in University life? And are they properly filling that place?
One of the most important functions of the fraternity groups from the viewpoint of the University is their encouragement of students to come to K.U. We all know that at this time each year there are several hundred students who do not know if they will go to college, and, if so, where. Contact with the various fraternities does more than any other one thing to encourage those students to come to K.U.
TUESDAY, MARCH 11, 1941.
Granted that a few college men and women have too much money for their own good, and granted that a few of them come to school just for the social life they can get. Still, there is no other agency which does as much to promote the University of Kansas as the fraternal organizations.
One of the chief values of these organizations is their promotional work for the University. Take a look at homecoming, for instance. Just how many alumni would come back to K.U. if they did not have their own frat or sorority house to go to? How many floats would there be in the parade if there were no organized houses. Where would intramural sports be if there was no such organizations to compete?
The average student thinks of these Greek organizations largely in the light of their social functions. They have more parties than the independent students do. But that is far from being their only function. For years on this campus, the scholastic standing of both fraternities and sororites has been above that of their independent brothers and sisters. Surely this means something. But even that is not all the fraternities accomplish.
An old grad who had been out of school for almost 15 years dropped into the journalism office the other day.
A Dove Editor Returns
When this particular man was a student here at the University, he was the editor of the Dove. In those days the Dove was a real "red" sheet, and this man had been its guiding hand.
But that was 15 years ago. Since that time, this newspaperman has worked mostly on conservative papers, and somehow his attitude slowly changed.
Such field trips give students a closer view of their chosen vocation, and might instill in them a deeped love for it.
The other day, when he was here, the old grad said, "It's funny how we radicals go reactionary when we get hold of some of that good, green money!"
Getting out all the editions of a city daily including the gathering of the news, editing it, making up the paper, etc.,—is a lot of work. Any professional newspaperman will agree to that. When young, untried journalists do it with willing, eager hands, they must be interested in their work.
More Field Trips
Judging by the way journalism students plunged enthusiastically into the work of putting out the Ottawa Herald and the Topeka Daily Capital, one might suppose that practical field trips are of some value to students.
MEN WITHOUT POCKETS
Spring styles for men have one new feature of universal importance to both men and women—the absence of pockets. The ordinary man's business suit now has fifteen pockets. Without plenty of pockets, it's going to be hard for a man to outfumble his companion when it comes to paying the dinner check. Gone will be the excuse that the keys are in the pockets of his other suit. Girls will no longer be fooled by the expanded chest of a man—which really is just the bulge of his breast pockets. The men probably will have to carry handbags, too. If they drop theirs as often as women do, it is going to be practically impossible to get on and off a street car of bus. —Written by Mary France McAnaw for the Topeka Daily Capital.

1,450,000 Gallons a Day--- Muddy Kaw River Water Purified In City Plant
By FLOYD G. DECAIRE
When the whistle ushered you out of the classroom and you wandered down the hall toward the water fountain for a sip between classes, did you stop to think whether or not the water was safe to drink? It's a sure bet that you didn't. You'd probably declare, "Certainly it's safe! I wouldn't drink it otherwise!" But suppose you were asked how you knew it was safe? You—who spend hours computing a problem in calculus, or weeks writing your term paper—have you ever tried to find out just what is done to the water from the time it leaves the muddy Kaw until it bubbles with silvery clearness over the top of that fountain?
Water From River
Visitors are cordially welcomed at the city's treating plant, so let us drop down to Third and Indiana and follow this process that rolls on incessantly 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. A spot two city blocks northwest of the plant is pointed out as the place where the water is taken from the river. There we observe a rectangular concrete structure about 10 by 15 feet, some 75 feet from the bank. This "gravity intake" catches the river water, which then flows downhill through a pipeline 20 inches in diameter (slightly larger than that of a basketball hoop) and directly east 250 feet inland to a circular reservoir known as the intake well. Adjoining this well is a pumphouse equipped with four service pumps that force the water uphill past the treating plant one block to a large pool comprising what are called primary filtering basins. The water is now at a higher altitude than the main plant, and, when it is released, will naturally flow to that unit.
In these primary filtering basins, the principal purpose is to allow the water to settle; the larger particles of foreign matter sink to the bottom. In the first basin, lime is added for softening. As the water passes into the second basin, it is churned by a series of moving arms known as flocculators. These arms, on which the ends are shaped like those of a windmill paddle, rotate up and back in a semicircle as your mother's wash machines does. Just as the wash machine works the dirt loose from the fabrics by continually shuffling up and back, so the action of these flocculators churns the water, causing sediment to loosen up and work
toward the bottom. We are curious to know what happens to all this mirk that results from the settling in these basins, and are told that a separate pipe, known as the main dump line, carries the residue back to the river at an outlet down-stream from the point of intake.
Residue Flitered Out
By now the water we are purifying has passed through the second basin and is starting downhill to the main treating plant, where it empties into a third settling basin. In past years, the water had been piped through the aerator before going into this third basin, but the caretaker tells us that the aerating equipment is outmoded and in need of repair; consequently it is not being used. It is not the type of aerator in which water spouts high into the air, but is merely a flat bed of concrete and metal over which the water is intended to flow and expose itself to the germ-killing rays of the sun.
So that we might follow the process more closely, the attendant explains that beneath the concrete floor upon which we are walking there are two sets of huge filters, the first ones known as roughing filters and the others as final filters. Since we cannot see them, we try to visualize. We understand "filter" in the ordinary sense of the word, and we can almost see a series of them down below, the water passing through first one, then another, and another, each time leaving behind lesser and lesser amounts of residue as it assumes a purer state.
Chemically Treated
After leaving the third basin, the water goes through these roughing filters, from which it flows for chemical treatment into the first of four (continued to page eight)

You Said It
The editor of the Kansan welcomes letters of opinion from students and faculty members to be published in the letters column. If the writer wishes, his name will be withheld, but the Kansan must have the names of all writers of letters.—
To the Editor:
Liberalism (a la Wheeler definition) is in dire straits. Universal agreement prevails among the liberal social engineers as to the undesirability of a social order based upon Nazi "principles." We differ, however, upon embroiling American youth in the battle of "democracy."
Is this a battle of democracy? I question that it is. I question the motives of a government that hesitates to state its objectives. Has the British government, whose conservative leaders aided and abetted those "saviors" of privilege they now fight, changed its attitude to benevolence toward the "mob"? Are the Beaverbrooks and Halifaxes interested in democracy or the maintenance of British privileges as against Nazi tyranny? And British privileges can be equally tyrannical as it becomes incapable of satisfying demands made upon it.
The United States has embarked upon a program of defense with the express intent of "quarantining" the Fascist nations. Yet before our very eyes we observe Fascist legislation ushered in. We are about to enact Fascist laws to compel labor obedience in order to prepare against Fascism. It is a rather ironical fact that labor, which began its battle for democracy with the United fronts in France and Spain and thoroughly denounced Fascism from the outset, should now be looked up by our 10 per cent profit patriots as enemies of democracy.
I say to Hades with Beaverbrook democracy! British labor will bleed to preserve British privilege. It will be compelled to abide by the decisions of that privilege when the war is over—Respectfully, A Graduate Student.

happenings on the hill
Stan Thomas, graduate of the School of Engineering last year, spent the weekend on the Hill. After a few days' vacation, he will leave for El Paso, Texas, where he is stationed as consulting engineer with a construction company.
Seth Gray, who was graduated from the University last semester, returned to the campus for the basketball game Friday night.
Chuck Elliott, college sophomore, was released Sunday evening from Watkins Memorial hospital, where he had been confined for three days because of an attack of flu.
Miriam Bartlett, college junior, spent the weekend at her home in Wichita.
Tolbert Anthony and Stanley Regier, freshman engineers, climbed out on the roof of Marvin hall to throw snowballs at passersby. While they were firing away, their architecture classmates locked the window. Moral: Men on the Engine building shouldn't throw snow.
LaVerne Munt, Kansan telegraph editor and editor of the "Dove" in 1930, visited the Journalism building Saturday. Since graduation, he has worked on the Kansas City Star, Los Angeles Times, and various Texas papers. At present he is touring the country and editing special editions.
Virginia Griswold, college freshman, and Dorothy Mae Nelson, fine arts sophomore, spent the weekend at the Griswold home in Newton.
Miss Lela Ross, secretary to Henry Werner, adviser of men, was in Topeka on business Saturday afternoon.
Jane Ellen Reed, a former University student now attending Kansas State College, was a weekend guest of Bernice Kizler, fine arts sophomore.
Miller Cameron, former student on the Hill, who now is attending the University of Oklahoma, spent the weekend visiting his fraternity brothers at the Kappa Sig house.
Taft's History Selling Rapidly
Eighty-two advance orders for "Across the Years on Mount Oread," the University history written by Prof. Robert Taft, had been received by noon yesterday, according to Raymond Nichols, secretary to the Chancellor.
These orders came from several states including New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Connecticut, Maryland, California, Nebraska, Wyoming, Oklahoma, and Indiana as well as from a large number of cities in Kansas.
The pictorial history is available before March 22 at $1.50, but after that date it will be priced at $2. The book, which is being published in connection with the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration, will go to press around March 24 and will be mailed out at commencement time.
Deferment Probable For Men In Science
Men, are you excellent students?
If you are, or are studying in one of the following fields: medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, biology, bacteriology or some other branch of biological science which bears on problems of medicine or public health, chemistry, physics, geology and geophysics, or engineering, your $ ^{\textcircled{1}} $
physics, or engineering, your prospects of deferment are unusually bright.
This deferent would be not only until the end of the current school year, but until the end of your formal training. A person who has completed his education would have a greater value for the defense of his country.
In line with a study being conducted by the national committee on education and American council on education, the University will interview students who are registered for selective service and who have or may request deferment. Since local draft boards differ in their handling of requests for deferment by students, it is felt that the data from this study may be used as a basis for legislation to amend the selective service act.
Questionnaires are being sent out from the registrar's office to all students, now in school, who registered on Oct. 16. Any student who has a question concerning his status with respect to the selective service act is urged to get in touch with James K. Hitt, assistant registrar, in room 124 Frank Strong hall.
Ten members of the R.O.T.C. rifle team are firing targets for the Hearst trophy, national R.O.T.C. rifle match, which began Sunday and ends tomorrow. The matches are sponsored by William Randolph Hearst, American magazine and newspaper publisher.
Snow Slows Down Research Lab Work
Excavation work on the site of the Engineering Research laboratory in back of Marvin hall is being slowed down because water from the recent snowfall has settled in the excavations. N.Y.A. workers are busy pumping out the water, which is 20 inches deep in some places.
A trial production run of the earth blocks to be used in the building was made yesterday in the "factory" in the basement of Hoch auditorium, and about 12 blocks were made. Full-scale production will begin within the next few days.

News From Page One
SENATE OK's----
according to the Senate approved measure.
As originally proposed and recommended for passage by the house, the measure provided for the distribution of the fund by the Board of Regents, but a senate amendment kept the direction of appropriations under control of the legislature.
Covers Ten-Year Period
The proposed building list covers a ten-year period, but in the event that the measure passes, the Board of Regents will submit a final building program in 1943 and again each 10 years thereafter.
Also included in the tentative building program were the following buildings for the University School of Medicine at Kansas City.
Laboratory building, two additional stories to the present corridor of the hospital for an operating suite and ward, a nurses home addition, improvement of convalescent and tuberculosis ward, and a ward building with space for an additional 100 beds.
For Other Schools
The 10-year building program, as outlined by the Board of Regents, included the following proposals for other state schools:
Kansas State~Home economics building, completion of Waters hall and livestock pavilion, fieldhouse, completion of engineering building, completion of power plant, completion of veterinary hospital, auditorium, and student hospital.
Emporia State Teachers College Remodeling of old library into industrial arts building, and general reconditioning of all buildings.
Fort Hays Teachers College Fine arts building, improved heating plant, and remodeling of industrial arts building.
Pittsburgh State Teachers College High school training and education building, addition to vocation and industrial education shops, and an improved heating plant.
MISS MUSIC BID---touring the state, the judges selected Ninger and Forman from the University. No Kansas entries placed in the orchestra.
K.U. SEEKS---specially on the defense measures and industrial expansion advocated by the Vargas government and the activities of Nazi Germans and fifth columnists in Brazil.
Eggleston Returns
Since the Aggies stopped the Jays 30 to 26 at Stillwater earlier in the season, Oklahoma has added an important star and Kansas has subtracted one. L. J. "Lonnie" Eggleston, leading Cowboy scorer, has recovered from a broken hand, but probably will be sitting on the bench when the starting gong sounds. Iba plans to use him as a climax scorer and shoot him into the game after his mates have worn down the Kansas defense.
The Allenmen will miss Marvin Sollenberger, husky sophomore guard, who is out of the contest with glandular fever. T. P. Hunter will again man the vacated sentinel post. Engleman, Allen, and Kline will open at their usual positions and one of two prize sophomores, John Buescher or Vance Hall, will complete the starting five.
For Oklahoma, Leroy "Red"
Floyd, named on Parke Carroll"
All-Missouri Valley team at guard, will pair with crafty Gene Smelser at the forward spots. Vern Schwertfeger, elongated pivot man and rebounder deluxe, is the center. Bud Millikan and Harvey Pate, who concentrate on stopping basket-conscious forwards, are the first string guards.
JULIEN BRYAN---gents, and Jack Jarrel, city editor of the same paper. Following the initiation and dinner, Chapman, Stauffer, and Jarrel' presided at a roundtable discussion concerning modern newspaper trends.
According to Bryan, American influence and cooperation is seen in every aspect of the Brazilian defense program.
"Bryan is always a favorite with college audiences and his lecture and pictures this year should prove interesting," said Raymond Nichols, secretary to the Chancellor.
This will be the speaker's third appearance on the University campus. He spoke on Russia on the lecture course in March, 1935, and again in February, 1938, under the auspices of the Student Forum Board.
SIGMA DELTA CHI--gents, and Jack Jarrel, city editor of the same paper. Following the initiation and dinner, Chapman, Stauffer, and Jarrel' presided at a roundtable discussion concerning modern newspaper trends.
Hold Funeral Services For Former Custodian
Funeral services were held yesterday morning in St. John's Catholic church for Patrick Henry Downey, 73, former University custodian who died Saturday morning.
Downey had been employed by the University for about 12 years and had been custodian of Robinson gymnasium. Fowler shops, and the Repair shops. Burial was in Mt. Calvary cemetery.
Oratorical Contest Debaters Prepare For Speeches
All persons entered in the oratorical contest on "American Youth and Democracy" are asked to meet at 12:20 o'clock Thursday afternoon in Prof. E. C. Buehler's office in Green hall.
The oratorical contest, sponsored by the debate council, will be held March 18 in Green hall. Thirteen students have entered the contest which will be judged by three faculty members.
Primary Students Begin Flights
Primary students in the CAA flying courses are making their preliminary flights this week. They are organized into units of 10 men each. Students in three of these units flew Saturday, and another unit was in action today. Strong winds kept the fliers grounded yesterday, Bill Ashcraft, flight director, said today.
The 30 secondary students, largest group in the two-year history of the course, will be flying by the end of this week or early next week.
MUDDY KAW----
(continued from page six) treating sections each partitioned by walls of concrete, all of which is also below the floor. However, the devices used in administering the various chemicals to the water are located above, where one can see them. We see a machine which the caretaker informs us is a lime stoker. It is entirely enclosed so that we cannot see its working parts, but we are told that it supplies a steady trickle of lime to the water beneath. The lime, of course, is being added to make the water softer.
Down below the floor, we are told, is a device for removing practically all of the lime after it has been run through the water. This mechanism is called a carbon dioxide grid. Walking toward the center of the building
AT THE JAYHAWKER
THE NIGHT OF THE LOST SCHOOL
we come upon two devices, the alum feeder and the chlorinator. The alum feeder, he tells us, steadily adds alum to the water below, much as the chlorinator feeds the proper amount of chlorine.
As the heroine of "Come Live with Me," Hedy Lamarr starts out by paying James Stewart $17.80 a week to be his "unkissed bride." But as the scene above indicates, before the final reels are over, Miss Lamarr changes her mind about the "unkissed" part of the bargain. The new comedy-romance co-star Stewart and Hedy for the first time.
Meets State Tests
We see two more machines near the end of the floor. The first one feeds sodium bisulphite into the water; the second mechanism adds a small amount of carbon. The water is now ready for the final filters. From there it goes up into the laboratory, where it is tested for safety, absence of odor, hardness, etc., every two hours during the day and night. A registered chemist supervises the testing. The water must also meet the requirements of the State Board of Health, and it is tested by a representative of the Board twice a week
The water is now ready for use and is on the last lap of the journey as it passes through master meters which register the amount of flow. It is pumped into the mains directly east
of the plant itself; from these mains it is distributed for city-wide consumption.
Water for 4,200
The Lawrence system supplies water to 4,200 customers; the average bill is $2.26 per month for each consumer. This average is brought quite high, however, because some of the University plants have monthly bills running as high as $450 per month, with an average around $300. At the University, and also at Haskell Institute, the water is taken in from the city through a single meter and then distributed over the respective areas. The University redistributes its supply by its own pumping equipment in the power plant, southeast of Fowler Shops.
631840512
Reduction in odor by 85.4 per cent and in hardness by 50.2 per cent results from the treating process. During the course of the 24-hour day, 1,451,000 gallons of water are pumped through the plant, more than 2,500 pounds of chemicals used, and more than 4,600 pounds of coal consumed.

An Ernest H. Lindley Memorial lectureship fund has been established by the University in honor of the former Chancellor to provide for nationally and internationally known lecturers at the University.
The lecturers will talk on subjects related to value of living just as the late Chancellor had $ ^{ \textcircled{2}} $
proposed to do in his course in "Human Situations."
The University Endowment Association will administer the funds. At

From Bass To Baritone Patriotism Aids Fuller
Patriotism does strange things to people sometimes, but did you ever hear of it changing a man's voice from a deep bass to a rich baritone?
That is exactly what it did to Lorenzo Fuller, fine arts senior, who will sing the solo part of "Ballad for Americans" (Earl Robinson) in the University Symphony Orchestra's concert, which begins at 8:20 o'clock to $ ^{ \textcircled{8}}$
morrow night in Hoch auditorium.
For more than two weeks 100 students labored to change the key "Ballad for Americans" in order to
bring it down within the range of Fuller, the bass solist. Finding the attempt rather unsuccessful, the Modern Choir members wanted the portions of the work in which they (partitioned to even right).

Engineers Vote For Queen Of Hobnail Hop
By BILL FEENEY
Engineering students went to the polls this morning in small numbers to select the queen of the Hobnail Hop, which will be held Friday in the Memorial Union ballroom. A rush to the polls is expected this afternoon.
The election up to 12 o'clock was unusually quiet and orderly, belying the interest shown in the contest. By noon 104 ballots had been cast, and it was predicted that the contest would gather momentum during the afternoon hours when the students would have more time to vote. There are about 550 students in the School of Engineering. No Electioneering
In contrast to the election of the Valentine Queen, no sorority sisters were lurking in the building to influence undecided voters in favor of their candidates. According to reports, the election has been relatively free of any pressure activities either by the interested sororities or by engineering organizations,
Rivals for the crown are Jeanne Brock, fine arts sophomore, Kappa Alpha Theta; Dollie Newlon, college senior, Kappa Kappa Gamma; Jane Yeatch, college junior, Pi Beta Phi; Betty Coulson, college senior, Gamma Phi Beta; Virginia Ford, education senior, Chi Omega; and Mary Christianson, college sopho-(continued to page eight)

This time we're going to take up some ways a fellow can dress to appear taller, shorter or thinner. For instance . . .
MaleModes By Phil McCarthy
Buy yourself a striped suit that's cut with a high waistline, and people will think you're as long-legged as a hurdler. See to it that the sleeves are tapered quite a bit and that they are short enough to reveal some shirt cuff. An unbroken vertical line where the coat ends and the trousers begin will help, too. Or if you don't like the idea of this suit, why don't you buy yourself a pair of cowboy boots?
WANNA' LOOK TALLER?
WANNA' LOOK SHORTER?
If so, get a fully draped suit, preferably in a double-breasted model with a longer coat and lower waistline. Avoid small neat patterns; they "expand" you a lot. Stay away from stripes unless they are wide-spaced and pretty well subdued.
WANNA' LOOK THINNER?
If you happen to be carrying around a batch of excess weight and don't fancy the starvation diet methods, try some of these. Wear a suit with higher-notched lapels in fabrics that are solid in color or have a wide-spaced stripe. You too should stay away from those small patterns. Even go so far as to have your trousers finished without a cuff.
SATISFIED AS YOU ARE?
Well then, you've wasted some time reading this, haven't you?
Philharmonic Will Play A Shorter Season
The Philharmonic trustees have accepted recommendations of a special reorganization committee—recommendations which contemplate a radically reduced expenditure if the orchestra is to continue on a season shortened from the present 20 weeks to 12 and on a subscription concert series reduced from 10 pairs of subscription concerts to eight.
The gods of harmony and of rhythm have smiled with favor upon the Kansas City Philharmonic. The orchestra will continue for another year.

Tacoma, Wash.—(UP)—Miss Evelyn Appleton Lock is dieting. In 45 days she has reduced her weight from 166 pounds to 136. She says she will keep on dieting until she is down to 125.
Twenty Apples A Day Makes Silhouette Shrink
Her diet is a source of delight to Washington orchard owners and to the Surplus Marketing Administration, and a source of argument among physicians. $ ^{ \dagger} $
Her diet is a source of delight to Washington orchard owners and to the Surplus Marketing Administration, and a source of argument among physicians.
Miss Lock is eating only apples—20 a day—with apple juice for a chaser. She got the idea in Yakima, Wash., when she visited there from her home in Indianapolis.
Physicians are watching her diet with much interest.
She reports she feels fine and that the apple juice put an end to the appetite she blames for her previous weigh. By way of precaution Miss Lock, 39, has a physical examination twice a week. Her blood pressure was between 170 and 180 at the start. It dropped to 120. Her pulse dropped from 86 to 72.
Apple growers of Washington and the Surplus Marketing Administration aren't worried too much about the medical aspects. To them, struggling with an oversupply of apples, the diminishing Miss Lock looms larger and larger as an "angel."

W.S.G.A. Council Approves Joint Group Proposal
An unenthusiastic executive council of the Women's Self-Governing Association last night reluctantly agreed to approve the Men's Student Council resolution to set up a joint committee to study the advantages of a combined council system.
Although the women had already delayed the adoption of the proposal three weeks, they still were none too eager at their meeting in the Union building last night to even set up a committee to study the advantages of such a scheme, apparently fearing to let the matter get out of their hands.
The proposal provides for a committee of the presidents of the two councils and two additional members from each group. Besides O-Thene Huff and Bill Farmer, the two presidents, the committee is composed of Jim Burdge and Bob Jessey from the M.S.C. and Doris Twente and Jean Steele from the W.S.G.A.
This measure was referred to a conference committee when it was first brought up in the W.S.G.A. At the next meeting no action was taken, and the third meeting was postponed.
The women legislators also decided last night to re-upholster the furniture in the women's lounge of Frank Strong hall in conjunction with remodeling work being done by the building and grounds division. The contract for the re-upholstering job was let to P.E. Courter, Lawrence.
The remainder of the meeting was taken up with discussion of the women's election to be held tomorrow. The date for installation of new officers was set for April 1.
Another Game Night In Bed For "Solly"

A total of 200 persons will participate in the program, which, says Dean Swarthour, will be one of the finest of the year. Previous programs of this nature, given in November, December, and February, were well attended.
Coop. Hoover will meet with the Y.W.C.A.-Y.M.C.A. cabinets and a l-visory室 at Henley house to discuss the World Student Christian Federation.
A former secretary of the Y.M.-C.A. at Denver, Hoover was sent to China about 10 years ago by students in the five states of the Rocky Mountain region and has been supported by religious organizations in this region through the Hoover China fund.

Dump Cowboys In Final, 34-31
Engleman, Allen, Kline End Careers In Standout Roles
By GABE PARKS
Kansan Sports Staff Writer
The Kansas Jayhawks rang down the curtain on the 1941 the Oklahoma Aggies in Hoch auditorium before an estimated crowd of 3,500.
Bob Allen and Howard Engleman, the big guns in the Kansas offensive all year, sacked up 11 points apiece to tie for top
sports AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
DON BOYDSTON, the high jumping sports editor from Oklahoma A. and M., a man who knows his Sooner athletics, says that the football coaching change at O.U. was all for the best. . . The cowboy track star admits that Tom Stidham, who received his walking papers after the '40 season, is a good coach, but says that Dewey "Snorter" Luster is strictly top-notch. . . Boydston, who won the high jump at the Kansas Relays last spring, had to turn down plane trips to the National A.A.U. Indoor and the Melrose A.A. games this winter because of newspaper work at A. and M. . . If the Aggies return to the Relays this year, Boydston says he will break the present high jump record of 6 feet $ _{7/2} $ inches set by Gil Crur, Colorado Negro in 1938 . . He has already accomplished 6 feet 7 inches in practice this year . . . Boydston was up for last night's Jayhawk-Cowboy fray.
ONE OF THE best yarns drifting from the Cowboys school concerns W. L. Clapham, the Aggie's fine broadjumper. . . A. and M. was entered in a meet at Fort Worth last week, and when Clapham appeared for his specialty he discovered that the jumping pit was only 25 feet long. . . He complained to meet officials about the short distance then silenced their fun-making with a winning leap of 24 feet 11 1-4 inches.
IT IS A FACT that Bobby Allen, all-Big Six basketball selection, will change his cage "quarterbacking" to the baseball mound this spring. . . . Allen will team with Knute Kresie, last year's best in a drab mound picture, and John Burge, curve-ball righthander, to form the nucleus of "Phog" Allen's hill corps. . . . "Phog" is slated to begin outdoor work today.
Opening Wednesday in Emporia's new auditorium is the annual class AA high school tournament, which always has a high rate of interest among Hill sport followers. . . As usual Ark Valley teams will rule as pre-tourney kings with New-

honors and wind up their collegiate careers. Gene Smelser, bail-hawking Cowboy forward, was high for the visitors with eight.
Four other Kansas seniors, John Kline, Ed Hall, Norman Sannemann, and Jim Arnold, also finished their competition with the game.
E. Hall, a Defensive Aid
"Phog" Allen pulled a surprise by starting Sanneman and the ex-Washburn athlete responded by dunking three points through the hoops in the short time he was in the fray. Ed Hall, former footballer, was shot into the game when it became rugged, and did yeoman service in breaking up the Aggie's blocking tactics. Hall also potted a neat one-hander early in the contest.
Kline turned in his usual brilliant rebound-defense performance and in addition slipped through for a set-up at a crucial moment. Arnold did not suit up because of a leg injury.
Cowboys In Strong Start
The Cowboys started strong with Leroy Floyd and Smelser helping them to a quick 7-3 lead. They began to wilt though under the pressure of Bob Allen's long range accuracy, and at the end of the first 10 minutes, Kansas possessed a 11-10 lead. By half-time Kansas was out in front 23-18.
The Jayhawkers ran the count to 29 points early in the second half, but at this point, the Aggie defense stiffened and the Cowboys commenced to pepper the basket. With the score reading 31-27, Lonnie Eggleston was fouled by Ed Hall while making a set-up. Eggleston missed the free toss but Vern Schwertfeger, big Aggie center, tipped it in to knot the count at 31-all.
Engleman then knifed through for a short shot and with 20 seconds remaining, Bud Millikan, square-jawed Aggie guard, fouled Allen. The coach's son elected to attempt both heaves and connected with the second to make the final score board read 34-31.
Buescher A Rebound Standout
John "The Thin Man" Buescher, turned in an aggressive rebound game, snatching the ball away from the taller Aggies off both backboards.
E. O. Stene, assistant professor of political science, took his Legislatures and Legislation class to Topeka yesterday to observe the state legislature in action.

One of the choicest of playoff cards will be offered to intramural basketball fans tonight when 12 teams collide in various rounds of play, beginning at 8:00 in Robinson gym.
Other important "A" affairs will bring together Beta and Pi K.A. at 8 and the Hellhounds and Newman II at 9, also in quarterfinal games . Chi's, Fijis Favored
Feature attractions of the evening should be the Sigma Chi-Newman I clash at 8 and the Phi Gam-Phi Psi duel at 9. Both are class A quarterfinal contests.
Both features rate as tossups with the Sigma Chi's and Phi Gam's installed as slight favorites. The Chi's have a season record of eight wins and two losses. The losses were to the Beta's 21 to 19 and to the Pi KA.'s 13 to 12. Most significant member in their victim list is the Phi Gam team which they downed 25-24. In the Sigma Chi front line are Bill Hyer and Eldridge King with scoring averages of 10.1 and 8.8 respectively. Lander Claassen, Van Hartman, and Bob Eldison round the starting five.
Many of the campus intramural followers thing that Newman I should have been installed ahead of Sigma Chi as top favorite to dethrone the champion Fijis. Basis for those favoring the Newmans is their impressive record.
Newman I has yet to lose, having won 10 straight contests. They have totaled 400 points against their opponents 94. Their closest games were against the Rambers 30 to 18 and the Hellhounds 36 to 14. In Joe Fournier, 14.5, and E. Vandaveer, 13.9, they have the top two individual scorers. In Marvin Vandaveer, Tony Coffin, and Harry Luebbe, they have three husky lads to back up their high scorers. The one drawback in the Newman picture is the lack of high class competition.
Psi's Are Tough
The Phi Gam's, favored to capture the title again this year, will have their toughest game of the current season when they tangle with the Phi Pisis's, co-champion of Division I. The Phi Psi lost two games in ten starts, both by one point, to the A.T.O.'s 23-22 and Delta Chis 22-21. The Phi Gam's record is 22 wins in 24 starts over the past two years.
Ace man for the Phi Psi is Jim Sealey, with Bill Hodge and Tom Ar-

Beta, Newman Are First Round Victors
In last night's first round playoff games, Beta Theta Pi and Newman II moved to impressive victories over their respective rivals, Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Delta Chi. The Beta's downed the Sig Alph's 34 to 25 while the Newmans whalloped the Delta Chi's by a score of 44 to 24.
Building up an early lead in the first few minutes of play, the Beta's retained this margin throughout the duration of the contest to win easily. Bob O'Neil and Fred Littoo, moved their team in front 6 to 2 at the quarter, and with teammate Bill Geiger hitting the hoop regularly, led 15 to 7 at halftime. Geiger A. Standout
Geiger A Standout
Walt Sheridan and John Ziegel-meyer, Sig Alph's, paced a third quarter rally which found the Beta's only five points ahead, 26 to 21. Geiger and John Fletcher then proceeded to warm the nets, putting the game on ice for the Beta's. The game standout was Geiger, who grabbed high scoring honors with six goals and three free throws.

First Workout For Baseball Hopefuls Today
From basketball to baseball in a day. That's the story of Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen.
Last night's basketball game ended temporarily Allen's basketball coaching duties and began his reign as Jayhawk baseball coach. The recently appointed baseball mentor meets with varsity candidates for the first time this afternoon.
With only five of last year's squad of 26 returning, "Phog" has a difficult month of rebuilding ahead to construct a team for Kansas' first game, with Kansas State April 7.
A Rebuilding Program
More than 35 men have been working out regularly in the gymnasium since Allen issued his first call for candidates several weeks
ggo. The varsity aspirants have not handled a baseball in practice, but have worked on gradual conditioning by calisthenics, skipping rope, and punching the bag.
"We have to start from the beginning," Coach Allen said today. "In past years little emphasis has been placed on baseball here, and coaches have changed from year to year, giving little chance to build up a permanent baseball program." Miller Cameron, letterman infielder of last year, transferred to Oklahoma to play baseball under "Jap" Haskell; Larry Hensley, this year's captain failed to return; and other material has been lost because of no definite baseball policy.
"We plan to keep Kansas baseball essentially a college game and we will play it as an unmate game, the same as we play basketball here. We will play the game with a lot
of hustle and drive, and give the fans a team they will enjoy seeing play." Allen said.
Two Experienced Hurlers Back
Physical fitness will be stressed, the new coach told players at their first meeting. Until the sun warms the ground sufficiently the baseballers will train indoors. "Working outdoors with the ground still damp and cold, is one of the main causes of pulled muscles. We will get into condition gradually to prevent any muscle strain," said "Phog."

BETA, NEWMAN---
(continued from page four)
II, with Eugene Sanneman pacing the attack, built up an 18 to 10 first half score. The final half was a runaway with the Newman offense clicking at its best. Especially proficient Newman players in this final half scoring spree were Paul Hardman and Elmo Maiden. Stellar performer for the losing Delta Chi's was big Jim Zimmerman, who rebounded splendidly and topped his team's scoring list.
Beta, Phi Delt "C's" Win
An underrated Beta "C" upset the defending champion Phi Psi "C" 13 to 12 to move into the "C" team finals against the Phi Delt "C". Phi Delt "C" won easily from Sigma Chi "C" 32 to 13.
Stars in the Beta "C" triumph were Dick Chubb and Fred Olander. Chubb was the only Beta who could hit from the field in the first half, scoring five of his team's first seven points. Olander hit the final goal which proved to be the margin of victory. Stars in defeat for the Phi Psi's were Jack Horner and Russ Atkinson. During the season, the Phi Psi's had won easily from the Beta's.
With Dave Prager gathering six field goals, the Phi Delt's were never in trouble. Coach Warren Newcomer used three different combinations against the Sigma Chi's. The half score was 15 to 7 in the Phi Delt's favor. Other stars were Bill Hertzler, Sigma Chi, and Bob Scott, Phi Delt.

High Schools Demand- Elbel Begins Survey Of Prep Intramurals
Ed R. Elbel, associate professor of physical education, has began a survey of high school intramural athletics. His research will be financed by a special grant from the department of physical education and the graduate research committee.
Questionnaires will be sent to 300 representative schools in 48 states.
Last year Elbel conducted a survey of intramural athletics in colleges, the results of which were published in the December issue of "Amateur Athlete." The success of this venture and de-
Some of the questions asked are:
What are your units of competition?
What person designates the team members? Do you require a specific training period for the various sports? What events are included in your programs? Do you employ a definite point system? When is your program conducted?

Soldiers on Skis
America's winter playgrounds have become training camps for her white-clad army of ski troops.
Picked battalions from divisions one, three five, and six of the regular army and the 44th and 41st divisions of the National Guard have been stationed in the 15 states comprising the snow belt for instruction in the art of skiing as applied to modern warfare.
Each morning these white-clad warriors are given instruction in the arts of collapsing quickly and effectively, of combining speed and balance under difficult snow conditions and full loads, and of loosening skis in order to fire in various positions. Two mornings' intensive training is enough to explain the theory of skiing to the novice. After that, his progress is entirely up to the grace of the skier.
Each week 110 men leave for the resorts with ski and combat equipment, field kitchens, and food supplies. The champions of each company will graduate to the ranks of a hard hitting, fast moving combat group, and will assist the entire First Division of 12,000 soldiers to get their "ski-legs."
America is profiting by the recent enlightening experiences of the European nations in the European war. In her defense policy she is trying to be prepared for anything. Finland's gallant resistance against the Russian invasion was made possible because of her ski-patrols and the advantage they held over the heavy mechanized units of the Soviet.
These ski troops will be the first in the United States since the Indian wars. The men are being taught how to fire rifles on skis, to bivouac outdoors in zero weather in a sleeping bag, to move combat equipment over carpets of snow.
In war, preparedness for any emergency is the important thing. The ski-patrols are but another precaution taken by our army to protect our country against any invader.
When a girl finds that she is not the only pebble on the beach, she becomes a little boulder. . . The Reformatory Herald.
A Weapon of War
Britain has flatly refused to lower the blockade in order that the starving millions of conquered Europe may be fed. The British say that even if the Nazis do not get the food, they will be benefited nevertheless.
Britain's point of view is easily understood. She wants to win the war.
Germany also wants to win the war, and if she is to win it quickly, she must keep insurrection down. The only way to do this is to feed the hungry in the pillaged lands. The job of keeping these invaded peoples at least halfway satisfied is tremendous.
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 12, 1941.
The Nazis took over these countries, says Britain, so it is their job to feed them. Britain believes that her greatest weapon will be revolution among the starving peoples in the occupied countries.
Obviously the British will do nothing that will lighten Germany's task of keeping rebellion down.
The glamour of the thirties has settled down into the domesticity of the forties. Magazines are publishing stories about families and their
activities in preference to the triangle tales. A similar trend may be observed in the movies. Perhaps the divorce rate will decline, too.
Journalists begin their careers at a young age, but the record at K.U. is set by the small daughter of K. W. Davidson, director of information, and former business manager of the Emporia Gazette. She comes to the journalism "shack" to visit her father, interviews all the occupants, and is no help in making the deadline-Written for the Topeka Daily Capital by Mary Frances McAnaw.

You Said It
The editor of the Kansan welcomes letters of opinion from students and faculty members to be published in the letters column. If the writer wishes, his name will be withheld, but the Kansan must have the names of all writers of letters.—
Like a spectre, famine is stalking Europe! That the Continent needs food can be deduced from the facts that Belgium, Holland, Norway, Poland, and Finland, normally import 25 to 60 per cent of their food. The British blockade has cut off this source of vital foodstuffs. The turmoil of mobilization and invasion made the native supply smaller than usual. The French navy's convoying of supply ships to France would seem to substantiate the view that the occupied countries are in dire need of food!
Editor, Daily Kansan:
Should we sit idly by and let thousands and perhaps millions starve? The British Government is preventing the Hoover relief plan from going into operation. England is opposed to it as she was in the early days of the last war. Only when there was positive public opinion, did the British consent. Later they praised the plan. It appears to me that if we Americans demand England's permission, it can be obtained—particularly when our government is about to give them billions.—Respectfully Keith Martin.
Rock Chalk Talk
Last of a series of postcards from Kansas City to Jim Hall, Kappa St. read, "Hurry over, and bring some pink and blue embroidery thread for you know what. Cuddles."
We wonder who "Cuddles" is. So does Jim.
Frances Anderson, Alpha Chi, woke Wednesday with these words,
"Does this look all right?"
She was dressing for school in the draperies of her room. It was a dream.
Another model T Ford has made a shaky debut on campus. This time the owners are Burt Larson and George Bolt, Kappa Eta Kappa. Plans are to paint it varied shades of green and to make it run.
Speaking of flivvers, Darrel Wood recently bought a one-third interest in the Jayhawk Co-op's open air model. Sunday night he and his date went to the show in the car. When they came out, it was snowing, and to make matters worse, the flivver wouldn't rattle. As a last resort they phoned the girl's parents to come after her. Said Darrel later, "Best date I ever had."
Visitors here yesterday from Oklahoma A. and M. described a campus tradition that sounds like fun. Every year there is a "Backward week" at Stillwater during which girls make the dates, call for the boys, pay the checks. Men make it a point to linger long upstairs for a last minute break-off to teach the coeds how it feels to wait in the parlor. During the week a male "queen" is elected by the girls and dubbed "Glamor Pants."
If you see Fred Stevens with his pockets bulging, ask him for a package of Lifesavers. When the Lifesaver salesman stopped for dinner at the Sig Ep house last night, Fred found out he was a member of the Illinois Alpha chapter. He got a whole box of samples.
Widge Dawe cannot study without a certain hat. She spent nearly half an hour looking for it last night so that she could study for her botany quiz today.
Style Geography I.S.A. To Show Fashions Maine To California
Fashion may be spinach, but every part of the country cooks up a dish in its own individual style.
At the "Geographic Garb" show at 7:45 p.m. Thursday in the Union ballroom, the Independent Student association will demonstrate different fashions from different states and cities. In Washington, D.C., for instance, the typical costume is patriotic; in Hollywood it's dramatic; at a Florida resort it's—well—scanty.
Clyde Bysom's band will play for the show, with vocals by Rex Cowan and Watkins hall's Virginia Gsell.
Fourteen models have been practicing strutting, and committees are at work. Mary Gene Hull, I.S.A. social chairman, is in charge of arrangements.
All women are invited. Admission is free.
A. W. Davidson Inspects Chemistry Departments
A. W. Davidson, professor of chemistry spent yesterday and today at Lincoln University, Jefferson City, Mo., and Missouri Valley College, Marshall, Mo., to determine if the departments of chemistry of the two schools can be accredited, on the basis of their curriculum, by the American Chemical Society.

LINDLEY LECTURESHIP---
ation, said today.
For 20 years Lindley, as Chancellor, gave his best to building the University and state. He had planned to spend his last years lecturing on his philosophy of life, and to help in establishing a worthwhile set of values for students.
It is believed that the lectures will be of interest to many Kansans owing to the fact that Lindley signed more than 50 per cent of the diplomas which have been issued from the University.
Malott Appoints Committee
The committee in charge of the lectures was appointed by Chancellor Deane W. Malott and consists largely of University graduates.
Members of the commission
Roy A. Roberts, chairman, Kansas City, Mo.; Henry J. Allen, Wichita; James S. Barrow, Napa, Cal.; Maurice L. Breidenthal, Kansas City, Kan; C. L. Burt, Hutchinson; Charles Haines, New York City; Fred Harris, Ottawa; Alfred G. Hill, Jamestown, N.Y.; Irving Hill, Lawrence; W. W. Holloway, Kansas City, Mo; John J. Kane, Bartlesville, Okla.; Paul B. Lawson, Lawrence; C. B. Merriam, Washington, D.C.; Dolph Simons, Lawrence; Oscar Stauffer, Topeka; Dr. Richard Sutton, Kansas City, Mo.; Harry H. Woodring, Topeka, and C. M. Harger, Abilene.

Then the orchestra was in hot water, musically speaking. Its members couldn't play while the vocalists were switching from one key to another. Finally Fuller volunteered to sing the whole work in the original key, high notes included. To the surprise of all concerned, it sounded better than it did in the lower key. That is the way it will be heard Thursday evening, providing a cold doesn't shift Fuller's voice back into bass.
"Ballad for Americans," first made famous by Paul Robeson, is heavy work for chorus, orchestra, and soloist. It depicts three great periods in the history of America—the American Revolution, the Civil War, and the Machine Age. Powell to Robeson
Fuller, whose career is parallel to that of the famous Negro singer and actor, Paul Robeson in many respects, is known on the campus for his role in "Emperor Jones," his appearance with the K.U. Band in "Ol' Man River," his radio work, as well as for his work with the K.U. Serenaders, who also will be heard on tomorrow's program in the spiritual, "Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho."
SEE HOT SCRAP----
Violation of the above regulations automatically disqualifies the offender from receiving office, even if elected.
Outcome of the election is difficult to predict because of the numerous unofficial combines and agreements. However, the Corbin hall combine with the Kappa's, Gamma Phi's, Theta's, and Miller and Watkins halls should have sufficient strength to carry most of its candidates to victory.
Candidates are as follows:
President of the W.S.G.A.
Jeanne Moyer, fine arts junior.
Doris Twente college junior.
Vice-President of W.S.G.A.
Mary Ellen Roach, college junior.
Patty Riggs, college junior.

Announce Queen at Dance
Results of the contest will not be announced until the dance for two reasons.
Number one: It used to be a playful habit of the law students, traditional enemies of the engineers, to kidnap the woman chosen queen, so that she could not appear at the dance. Consequently the engineers decided to keep the winner's name a secret until the night of the dance.
The lawyers abandoned their whimsical custom several years ago, but, and here comes reason number two, a little mystery about the outcome of the contests helps to sell more tickets.
Speaking of tickets, they can be purchased by 75 cents in the lobby of Marvin hall. or from any member of the Engineering council.
The Hop will be semi-formal and will last from 9 to 12 o'clock. Red Blackburn's orchestra will provide the dance music. For the first time in its history the dance will be limited to engineering students.
Skilton, who was internationally famous for his compositions of Indian music, came to the University in 1903. He was graduated from Yale in 1889.
C. S. SKILTON---
an illness resulting from a leg fracture three weeks ago. He had been seriously ill for the past few days. Death occurred at the home, 1318 Louisiana.
In 1915 he retired as dean of the
School of Fine Arts and since that time had devoted his energy to teaching and composing, gaining international fame for several of his compositions.
From 1903 to 1915. Skilton was dean of the School of Fine Arts, and since then has taught organ, theory of music, and history of music Among his better known works are the "Cheyenne War Dance," played at the University orchestra's concert last fall. "The Witch's Daughter" and many songs, choruses, piano, organ and violin pieces.
JULIEN BRYAN---events, faculty, and townspeople tonight is shown by the following paragraph from the magazine "Program" for February, 1941:
"Julien Bryan, in his new lecture on South America has risen to heights never before attained in illustrated lectures. He has blended a verbal report of a situation that is almost an inferno with a pictorial report that supplements but never interferes with the spoken word."
Students will be admitted on activity tickets."
Bryan, who arrived in Lawrence from New York this morning was a noon guest at a luncheon given by Raymond Nichols, secretary to the Chancellor, in the Old English room of the Union building.

Gam Record Impressive
Champions of a tough division, the Phi Gams have a total-point record as impressive as that of Newman I. The Fijians have piled up 426 against their opponents 196. The Phi Gam's best game of the season was their 54 to 26 slaughter of the Beta's. Three of the first five scorers in Division II are Phi Gams Chain Healy, Larry McSpadden and Roscoe Hamric. Scoring averages are as follows:McSpadden—12.9, Healy—11.9, and Hambric—8.7. Harold Long, an ace ball handler, and either Wally Hinshaw or "Swede" Olson complete the starting lineup.

By virtue of it's 44-24 trouncing of Delta Chi last night, the tail Newman II's are given the edge over a hustling Hellhound crew. In Gene Sanneman and Elmo Maiden the Newman's have a pair of fast stepping forwards that should supply the margin of victory.

Art Meet Opens Here Tomorrow
Of state-wide importance is the high school art conference which begins on Mt. Oread tomorrow. Almost as many schools are represented from Western Kansas as are from Lawrence's more immediate vicinity.
Dodge City, Scott City, and Hays mark the western boundary of the region from which exhibits and delegates have been received. Also represented in the conference will be Formosa, Newton, Wellington, Bonner Springs, Holton, Ft. Scott, St. Johns, Ottawa, Salina, Great Bend, Wichita North, Wichita East, Winfield, Concordia, Hutchinson, Lawrence, and Oread high school.
'High Quality Exhibits'
Exhibits from these high schools are now on display in the lobby of the Memorial Union building. "The exceeding high quality of these exhibits is really amazing," said Miss Marjorie Whitney, acting chairman of the department of design. "One not familiar with Kansas art would not believe it possible that these works are done by high school students."
Building plans for the University's new Military Science building have been completed and a tentative order issued to proceed with the work. C. G. Bayles, superintendent of buildings and grounds, said yesterday.
Faculty Demonstrations
Program for the two-day conference consists mainly of practical demonstrations of various phases of art work by the University fine arts faculty.
A sculpture demonstration and lecture by Bernard Frazier, instructor in sculpture, will be given in Spooner-Thayer museum from 11:10 a.m. to 12:10 p.m. Friday. Raymond Eastwood, professor of drawing and painting, will give an oil painting demonstration from 1:30-3:30 p.m. Friday in room 305 Frank Strong hall.
Other demonstrations Friday will be in screen printing, the color machine, sun machine, bookbinding, enameling, and various motion pictures.
Work to Proceed On R.O.T.C. Building
The screen printing will be demonstrated by William Whitney, director of Kansas WPA handcrafts, in room 314 Frank Strong hall. Color machine demonstration wil (continued to page eight)
Excavation work for the foundation of the Military Science building may get under way next week, and rock quarries in this locality will be surveyed to determine where to find the best quality stone at the lowest price.
Ten Apply For Frosh I-M Post
Ten applications for the vacant freshman position on the intramural athletic board have been received by Lee Huddleston, senior manager of the board.
Candidates will be notified of appointments for personal interviews by mail. Freshman applying are Jay Gunnels, Stephen Phelps, Irven Hayden, Howard B. Hull, Claude G. White, Murray McCune, Bill Walker, Tommy Adams, and W. C. Hartley.
German Refugee Speaks Here
Dr. Ernest Mannheim, German refugee, spoke on "Peace and War Today" at a meeting of the Sociology club this afternoon in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building.
Brother of Karl Mannheim, a famous sociologist in Germany, Dr. Mannheim came from Germany several years ago and is now teaching sociology at the University of Kansas City.
The discussion was followed by a tea, under the direction of Marjorie Machin, college senior. The Psychology club, history and political science departments were invited.
The entire meeting was arranged by the sociology club cabinet, which is composed of Ruth Yeomans, college senior, president; Russell Miller, college senior, program chairman; Wanda Joe Reade, college senior, secretary-treasurer; Patty Riggs, college junior; and George Dixon, college senior, publicity cochairmen.
WSGA Election Vote Runs High
Interest in the election of officers of the Women's Self-Governing Association ran high today as more than 390 women had cast their ballots by 2:30 this afternoon.
Predictions as to the outcome of the voting were inconsistent, being based more on the individual candidates than on the strength of the groups supporting them. The combines and organizations in women's politics are at most merely trading arrangements by various supporting groups, and never have any permanent strength after the day of election.
All women in the University are eligible to vote for the officers of the executive council, but otherwise they might vote only for their class officers and the representative from their school. Twelve officers are to be selected out of a slate of 25 candidates.
The ballots will be counted tonight, beginning immediately after the polls close, by the senior members of the present executive council of the W.S.G.A. Results will be available late tonight, and will be announced in tomorrow's Kansan.
Although there was a great deal of interest in the election, there have been no irregularities or violations of the election regulations reported.
The newly elected members will be installed in their positions on April 1, the council decided at its last meeting.
Bryan Sees Opportunity In Future South America
NUMBER 105.
Brazil as a land of opportunity for American youth was pictured by Julien Bryan, internationally known foreign correspondent and cameraman for the March of Time, in both his lecture last night in Hoch Auditorium and in a short interview yesterday afternoon.
Bryan declared that whether Germany or United States shall gain the cooperation and friendship of South America is a serious question. Said Bryan "Hilber will not invade the country with 2,000,000 men; the governments of these countries are so scared and teeter at the present time that if Hitler succeeds in overcoming England, they will literally wire him their cooperation and willingness to work with him." Bryan explained this statement by the fact that the Brazilians are much worse off than we are, in that the war has greatly reduced their markets and unemployment is high.
At present the Brazilians are exhibiting more friendliness toward the United States than ever before. But, as Mr. Bryan pointed out, the maintenance of this friendliness depends upon the American people. The Brazilians are scpeplical and they must be shown that the United States really means the good neighbor policy she has been advocating for the past eight years.
That the young people of the United States, the college students from such schools as the University, can play the most important part in assuring the Latin American countries of our friendship was stressed (continued to page eight)
Open With Skilton Tribute At University Symphony Concert
A tribute to Charles Sanford Skilton, who died yesterday after serving on the University fine arts faculty for 38 years, will be paid by the University Symphony Orchestra when it opens the "American Concert" with Skilton's own "Prelude to Electra" at 8:20 o'clock tonight. The remainder of the program consists of six numbers, the most "classical" of which is Dvorak's symphony in E minor, "From the New World." This number is especially well known because of its second movement, the Largo, which is known in transcription as "Goin' Home."
Lorenzo Fuller will sing the solo part of "De Glory Road" (Jaques Wolfe).
AIRLINES
THE CARL TWINS ...Play Tonight
An old friend, "Jeannie with the Light Brown Hair" returns to be played by the Orchestra. Karl Kuersteiner, director, hastens to add that this arrangement, by Glenn Bacon, is definitely new and refreshing. Bacon says that perhaps Jeannie should be laid quietly away to rest, seeing as how the airways have been beating her so much of late.
Erna and Olga Carl, fine arts juniors, will play "Handel in the Strand" (Percy Grainger) on two solo pianos. Grainger describes this number as "a clog dance, to be played with or without clog dancing. . . fast and merry." This number is also of special interest because of Grainger's contract to serve here in the Mid-western Music Camp this summer.
"Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho," (traditional) will be sung by the K. (continued to page eight)
'Kansas Loses Fine Artist' --Swarthout
"For 38 years Doctor Skilton has served the University, first as dean of the School of Fine Arts and
"The University has lost one of its most distinguished faculty members and Kansas one of its most eminent musicians," D.M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts said this afternoon in speaking of the death of Charles Sanford Skilton, University faculty member for 38 years.
THOMAS HENRY JOHNSON

later as professor of organ and theory, with such distinguished effort as to make his work nationally recognized.
"Probably few men in any field have brought greater fame to the state than this scholar and musician.
"His place will be indeed difficult to fill and the honor and distinction he has brought the University will continue to be recognized for many years to come."
Funeral services will be held at 2 o'clock Friday afternoon at the Episcopal church.

Spooner-Thayer Exhibits Work Of Blind Children
A rare and unusual exhibit of art work is now on display on the ground floor of Spooner-Thayer museum. The work is done by three groups of children, all under the age of adolescence, who have been divided into three groups: Those with normal vision; those with 10 to 20 per cent vision; and those congenitally blind or born blind
The exhibit is of comparative nature, contrasting the work of each of the three groups on the same subject. Water colors have been painted by the weak-sighted and normal children, while the congenitally blind have done their work in the field of clay modeling.
Observation Through Touch
Character of the water colors done by the weak-sighted children shows influence of observation through touch as compared to visual observation by children with normal vision.
Those with weak sight often have to do their work with their eyes only $ \% $ of an inch from their paintings and thus are not able to get a simultaneous impression of the picture. They must build up their representations out of partial impressions, making it difficult to obtain continuity by this method.
Clay modelings, done by students with normal vision and students born completely blind, are presented in the exhibits beside photographs of the actual work, which was done in Germany. All impressions received by the blind students were made by touch and use of the imagination, since they had never seen a model of their work. Work on Face of Man
The subject on which they worked was the face of man expressing pain. The children were very exact in placing each distinct part in the proper place, including the teeth and tongue which were hidden by a closed mouth when the head was

finished. Yet the most striking features of the photographs are the great disproportions in size. The students were able to tell the shape of objects but were unable to judge their size in proportion to other objects.
Groups are easily distinguished in the exhibit, Dr. Viktor Lowenfield of Hampton Institute, Hampton, Va. owns the exhibit and conducted the work of preparing it, after a great many years of experimental work with these children.
Wrote Book
Doctor Lowenfeld has written a book entitled, "Nature of Creative Activity" in which he makes comparisons between these children and primitive man.
The exhibit is sponsored here by the psychology department, department of architecture, and the department of design. It is open to the public without charge, and will be here until early April.

In last night's semi-final contests, the Sigma Chi's downed the Phi Delt's for the second time this year 28 to 22 while the Psi's, led by Jim Brown, nosed out the Beta's 23 to 22.
Earlier in the season the Beta's turned back the Phi Psis 29 to 20. The Sigma Chi's single defeat was at the hands of the Sig Alphs 22 to 15. Brown A Standout
Stellar performers in the Sigma Chi line-up are Jack Wilson, Bill Reed, and Larry Smith. The Phi Psi team boasts Brown, high "B" team scorer, with an average of 12.3 points per game.
With Bill Reed registering five goals in the first half, the Sigma Chi's led the Phi Delts 17 to 9 at the half of last night's contest. The Phi Delts rallied in the third quarter to bring the score to 22 to 16 but the Sigma Chi's Jack Wilson and Larry Smith put the game on ice with free tosses.
F. Wilson Stars
Game stars for the Sigma Chi's were Reed, J. Wilson, and Smith while Forrest Wilson and Jim Waugh performed best for the Phi Delts. The Sigma Chis defeated the Phi Delts earlier in the season 21 to 20.

The defending champion Phi Gam team entered the semi-final bracket with a hard-earned win over Phi Kappa Psi, 41 to 32. In a Frank Merriwell thriller, Newman I eked out a pre-lournament favorite, Sigma Chi, by a score of 23 to 22. The Hellhounds produced the upset of the evening by walloping Newman II 37 to 22. A fighting Beta outfit registered its second playoff win by downing its former conquerers, Pi Kappa Alpha, 24 to 17.

Bob Allen, star quarterback on the Jayhawker basketball team, has definitely decided not to play independent basketball this spring, it was learned today.
Allen, with Howard Engleman and John Kline have been approached by A.A.U. basketball teams on the subject of participation in the national tournament to be held in Denver next week. Engleman and Kline are undecided, but are still toying with the idea of joining Dick Harp on the College of Commerce squad of the Kansas City Naismith league for the tourney.

Carl Unruh and George Fleeeson were "hot" and moved the Hellhounds in front 23 to 14 for the first half. They continued their scoring spree during the second half to win easily. Only Elmo Maiden could find the goal for the losing Newmans.
Kline has no more sports competition in the University but Engleman will be ineligible for tennis if he competes in the tournament.

Marvin Vandaveer then retaliated with a one-handed jump shot to cinch the game for the Newmans. Hartman swished a shot down center with half a minute to play to bring his team's score to 22.

Charles Sanford Skilton
The death yesterday of Charles Sanford Skilton, professor of organ at the University, marks the end of a long, successful career in music.
THURSDAY, MARCH 13, 1941.
Professor Skilton had been connected with the school of fine arts at the University since 1903. From that time until 1915 he was dean of the school of fine arts. After his retirement as dean, he served as a professor until the time of his death.
He was a graduate of Yale and studied at the Berlin Hochschule. Before coming to the University, he spent several years as director of music in Winston-Salem, N.C.
He was not interested exclusively in music. Astronomy and his deep interest in his students were two hobbies to which he devoted much thought.
Professor Skilton was noted for his Indian music. His "Two Indian Dances" are in the repertoire of many major symphony orchestras of America, and are heard on the broadcasting systems of England, France, Japan, Germany, and the United States.
The life of Charles Sanford Skilton ended yesterday, but he will live forever in the music he has written and in the hearts of his students everywhere who will remember him not only as a teacher but as an understanding man who gave of his knowledge and time to make their own lives richer.
Price of Madness
Not the least of the bad aspects of war is that it costs so much. How anything that is fundamentally a breaking down process could be so expensive might amaze us if we weren't so used to it. World War II costs will be unknown to us for some time, but if destruction continues at its present rate, we may soon expect something bigger and better in I.O.U.'s.
One estimate puts the total economic cost of the last war at $331,600,000,000. Broken down, the total represents the following expenditures:
(1). Munitions and machines of war during the four years of fighting, 3180,000,000,000.
(2) Property losses on land, $29,960,000,000.
(3) Losses to shipping, $6,800,000,000. (4) Production losses through diverted and non-economic production, $45,000,000,000.
Famous and well-worn is the table compiled by the editor of Scholastic magazine in 1934. His research shows that the cost of the first World War would have been sufficient to furnish (1) every family in England, Belgium France, Germany, Russia, the United States Canada, and Australia, with a $2,500 house on a $500 one-acre lot with $1000 worth of furniture. (2) A $5,000,000 library for every community of 200,000 inhabitants in these countries. (3) A $10,000,000 university for every such community. (4) A fund that at five per cent interest would yield enough to pay indefinitely $1,000 a year to an army of 125,000 teachers and 125,000 nurses, and still leave enough to buy every piece of property in France and Belgium at a fair market price.
Now we're in for a second try, the expenses of which are going to make the first war look like a small time poker game.
You Need A Vacation
You need a vacation. Not at Easter time or next summer, but now. We are not advising that just before midsemester tests begin you
blithely pack your bag and journey to the southern beaches. We advocate a vacation you take for yourself every day, not a vacation by order of the Board of Regents.
Most of us, living almost automatically in the grip of a weekly schedule, look forward to some future letup. We forget that, with planning, we can pack into short daily intervals all the essentials of a protracted holiday—a change of scene, change of pace, and—most important—change of habit.
When you find that regular trip to the coke dispensary is failing to be the pause that refreshes, then is the time to do something. The daily vacation must be more than a mere cescation of class-going and studying. It must be not only a definite break with the routine of external compulsion but a positive rendezvous with pleasure.
Don't say you haven't the time. If a President of the United States could set aside ten minutes a day for self-freedom in the form of reading poetry, as Theodore Roosevelt did, surely a Mid-Western university student—or professor—isn't too busy to find a daily interval he can tag his own.
One of the busiest men on the campus spends his daily vacation reading "Arabian Nights," and a certain professor, whose natural habitat is Fraser hall, is adding to his photograph collection by snapping scenes of the "daily drama" during the extra minutes of the lunch hour.
Give yourself a preventive treatment for bookworm pallor, library fever, or just plain college popularitis. Take a daily vacation.

Kansan Reporter Visits Lawrence Evening School Finds K.U. Students
By MIRIAM ABELE
"Put that history book down and come along! You can study some other time."
My roommate stood in the doorway with her notebook under her arm. It was Tuesday night, and she had only 20 minutes to get to her shorthand class in the Lawrence evening school. Persuasion wasn't necessary; any excursion sounded like a good deal to me when compared with who was practical the Protestant Revolt.
"Our adult education program is somewhat different from that in other cities," he said. "Lawrence has no large industrial population, so we include few technical trade courses in our program." Laughing he added, "I guess you would call ours more of a hobby school than a trade school." But the class bell interrupted our conversation, and with a class schedule to direct me, I started out to visit the various classes. When I reached the end of the first floor corridor, I heard peculiar sounds issuing from a lighted classroom.
Only a few of the many windows in the Liberty Memorial high school were lighted, but inside, students of all ages waited for classes to begin.
My roommate disappeared leaving me with the smiling director, Ralph E. Graber, who is also printing instructor in the Liberty Memorial high school.
Inside, absorbed students were intently watching their instructor, Jose Hidalgo, Jr., a graduate student of the University. The peculiar sounds turned out to be Spanish conversation. There on the front row were three of my fellow students in Spanish II. So this was why they were getting along so well! Before long, I learned that the middle-aged couple near the window planned to go to Mexico next summer. They had enrolled in the class to learn their hotel and restaurant Spanish.
Becoming hopelessly confused with the rapid questions and answers tossed about by the Spanish students, I withdrew to look for the commercial classes. These classes were, by far, the largest, and they had the most varied student enrollment. My roommate
who was practicing to increase her typing speed, was sitting beside a white-haired woman, who was learning to type for the "fun of it." The beginning shorthand class was a study in concentration. College women, sales girls, housewives, husbands, and grandmothers were all intently concerned with making heirglyphics.
The pounding going on in the home decoration class could be heard some distance away. When I opened the door, I found that all the banging came from a solidly built worktable by the wall where several women were energetically manufacture. On one table were metal.
In the corner four looms were set up, each containing a rug, mat, or table runner, in various stages of manufacture. One one table were several painted trays filled with acid. They were "etching." I was told. A row of beautifully designed articles in copper, brass, pewter, and aluminum were on display in a low glass-fronted case.
The public speaking class was gathered around a small radio listening to a speech when I entered the room. The radio speaker let a "git" slip by his tongue, and 25 critical pencils made note of it. It seems that a few members of the class were on another floor of the building broadcasting their speeches over a special microphone. This program was being picked up on the radio, and the remainder of the class was taking notes on speech errors. The instructor of the class is H. L. Sutherland, who is also clerk of the board of education.
Faint strains of "Blue Hawaii caught my ear as I left the shop. The Hawaiian ensemble is under the direction of George Wongwai,

Theme of the course was that new students have slender or shaped legs, seniors' legs look like they took the Charles Atlas course—all because of trudging up Mount Oread for four years.
ROCK CHALK TALK

Mike Gubar's interests in the Oklahoma A. and M. game Tuesday night included more than reporting Jayhawk victory for the Kansas City Star. A soft-voiced little Aggie named Chloe Dell had been spotted by Gubar early in the day.
"Can't you tell that girl is a sophomore? See, she's just beginning to get those muscles." Gubar would bull.
"Why, I sho' can," Chloe Dell would coo.
Mike loved it.
Shorty Harlan had a rough time going through the spat line at Templin the other night. The custom is for the victim to crawl between the legs of the other men to be spatted. Shorty is only 6 feet 7 inches tall, and the boys found themselves riding piggy back instead of spatting.
You can fool some of the people all of the time. Neal Ukena still thinks that Elmer Zilch, fictitious famous alumnus of the journalism department, is a real person of William Allen White standing.
We think the engine queen-to-be should object to the squealching of the old custom of the lawyers' kidnapping the queen. Her grandchildren might like to hear a hair-raising "me versus 120 lawyers" tale.

Famous For Indian Compositions Skilton's Compositions Internationally Known
The death of Charles Sanford Skilton at his home yesterday ended 38 years of service to the University as dean of the School of Fine Arts and as a member of the School of Fine Arts faculty.
Death was caused by a liver ailment and illness resulting from a broken leg three weeks ago. He had been seriously ill for several days.
Skilton was internationally famous for his Indian compositions. The silver jubilee of his professorship at the University was celebrated at the annual Music Festival week in 1928, and was commemorated by the playing of his oratorie, "The Guardian Angel" by the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra. Graduated from Yale
Graduated from Yale
After receiving his A.B. from Yale in 1889, Skilton studied under Bargiel and Boise in Berlin and under Dudley Buck in New York.
He came to the University in 1903, serving as dean of the School of Fine Arts until 1915. Since then, he had been active in teaching in the School.
Among the honors bestowed on him, Professor Skilton was one of the first American elected to membership in the Musical Society of England; has been a member of the International Musicians' society and of the Kansas State Music Teachers Association, serving as president from 1914 to 1916; has been a Fellow of the American Guild of Organists, presiding as dean in 1926; was appointed to the Musical Advisory committee of the Fontainebleau School of Music for Americans held at the Palace of Fontainebleau in 1922; was a member of A.S.C.A.P. and the National Association for American Composers and Conductors.
Received Doctor's Degree in 1933
The professor was given a doctor of music degree from Syracuse in 1933.
One of his most famous compositions is "The Guardian Angel." Others include the opera, "The Day of Gayomair"; an anthem "Love Divine;" two Indian dances, "Deer Dance and War Dance;" "Electra," a song, "Call of Kansas;" "Ticorderoga;" the "Witch's Daughter"; an opera, "Kalopin;" the "Suite

The clothing class is about as quiet as the home decoration class is noisy. Here I found students at work studying patterns, and working on garments. One young woman brought her small son along and was trying a bright red woolen ski suit on him. The little boy was squirming uncomfortably under the attention of so many women.
Back in the office, I learned from Mr. Graber that the classes in furniture repair, home decoration, and clothing are sponsored by the State Board of Vocational Education. When the Lawrence evening school program was launched 16 years ago by Mr. Graber, one of the most popular courses was millinery, and there were no commercial classes at all.

His pieces have been played by the Rochester Symphony orchestra, the Walter Damrosch radio hour, the Nashville Symphony orchestra, the Chicago Symphony orchestra, NBC orchestra, Philadelphia Symphony orchestra, Atwater-Kent radio hour, and the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra.
Heard in Rome
They have also been played by the honorary organist of the Vatican in Rome, have been heard in Carnegie hall, and have been presented in London and in Tokyo.
D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts pronounced him as "one of the foremost authorities on the transcription of Indian melodic material for use by modern orchestras and other instrumental groups."

BRYAN SEES---by Mr. Bryan during the interview yesterday afternoon.
"The students are the best ambassadors; there is more opportunity for them than for America's businessmen and government officials, he said. He continued to explain that the college set up in Brazil differs a great deal from the set-up in United States. The schools are much more industrialized; there are no University campuses. There are schools of medicine, law schools, business schools, and engineer and mechanical training schools, but nothing comparable to a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
The students on the whole are older, more serious, and having more definite ends in view than the average college student in America. They play a much greater part in the government of their country than an American student has opportunity to play. For this reason, the United States must influence Brazil through the college students.
"There is a good chance for graduate students to get fellowships to the South American schools, and enjoy a really exciting life" said the famous reporter, "and at the same time gain a better understanding of the Brazilian people."

Law-Engineering Feud Flares 'Uncle Jimmy' Painted Again
Six engineers spent an hour this afternoon doing some cleanup work which will probably make it possible for them to have a queen to reign at their Hobnail Hop tonight.
The engineers, headed by Tom Arbuckle, president of the School of Engineering, applied about two gallons of gasoline to the waistcoat of Uncle Jimmy Green and removed that much bright green paint from the School of Law's emblematic bronze figure.
Jimmy Green received the coat of green paint during the early morning hours and the coloring irritated the lawyers until 2 o'clock this afternoon when the engineers arrived to patch up any hard feelings.
It was rumored that the Laws were all set to retaliate by
abducting the traditional Hop Queen from under the nose of the engineers before she could reach the Memorial Union building for tonight's dance.
The chagrined lawyers met at 10:30 this morning and named a six-man committee to look into last night's affair. The committee notified J. J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering, who immediately appointed the delegation of engineers to remove the paint.
According to statements by the members of the Law committee, an unnamed engineering student was responsible for the sabotage to the effigy of the founder of the University's School of Law.
Final Vespers Services Sunday
Three of the major musical organizations of the University will be heard in the final All-musical Vespers at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon in Hoch auditorium.
The University Symphony Orchestra which presented its spring concert in Hoch auditorium last night, again will play the final movement of Dvorak's "New World Symphony."

The A Cappella Choir, under Dean D. M. Swarthout, will sing two numbers. "Transylvanian Lament" (Kodaly) is a selection coming from Rumania, a number of great technical difficulty and with some of the most striking choral effects of any number on the choir's program for the year. The second

Plans For 1941 Commencement Class Officers Working
Graduating seniors will be given only two tickets to commencement exercises, it was decided yesterday by the Commencement committee.
Pallbearers were Dr. F. C. Allen, Dean Henry Werner, Dean D. M. Swarthout, Prof. Waldemar Geltch, and Prof. E. H. Hollands, of the University faculty, and Dr. Mervin T. Sudier, Dolph Simons, and Robert Rankins, of Lawrence.
Burial was in Oak Hill cemetery.
The policy was adopted to avoid excluding immediate members of the seniors' families, if weather necessitates moving the exercises inside.
The Chancellor's party and seniors will be seated in the audience, only faculty members and the speakers having places on the platform.
The Jayhawk baseball team, will make its first home appearance in a double header with Kansas State. April 7 and 8.
H. G. Ingham, chairman of the committee, will appoint several persons to work in connection with class of 1941 officers in planning the program.
Funeral Services For Skilton Held This Afternoon
Sub-committee heads were appointed as follows:
Funeral services for C. S. Skilton University faculty member for 38 years, who died at his home Wednesday of a liver ailment and illness resulting from a broken leg received three weeks ago, were held this afternoon at the Episcopal church.
W. H. Schoewey exhibits; Maude Elliott, registration; Ruth Hoover, decoration; J. J. Wheeler, University marshals; E. B. Dade, ticket distribution; Dean D. M. Swarthout, music; Leonard Axe, Chancellor's reception; E. O. Stene, forums; Ruth Litchen, alumni luncheon; K. W. Davidson, printing.
It was decided to retain the University band, the Men's Glee Club, and the A Cappella Choir for Commencement music.
McClure To Captain Pachacamac
The Society of Pachacamac at this week's regular meeting of the inner circle got most of its spring election committees under way and elected a campaign manager.
Pachacamac chose Bob McClure, college junior, to handle the duties of campaign manager for the spring election of 1941. In accepting the position McClure said, "I know this is going to be a lot of hard work, but it will be worth it to see a Pachacamac student government again."

Start Monday On ROTC Building
Preliminary work on the University's new Military Science building will start Monday, George W. Aligre, newly appointed superintendent of construction representing the WPA, said this morning.
Workmen will begin the removal and preparation of rubble stone from a quarry about nine miles southwest of Lawrence Monday. This stone will be used in the construction of the building walls.
Another phase of the preliminary work will begin Tuesday when six stone cutters begin shaping the cottonwood facing stone from old Snow hall. The number of cutters will be increased in the future. Construction of the tool sheds is also expected to begin Tuesday.
WEATHER
Evacuation for the foundation will not begin until cutting is well advanced, Algire said, and the rubble stone will not be hauled to the building site for about three weeks. Sixty-five men are expected to be working on the building project within two weeks.
Slightly colder with possible light snow.
Twente Wins Presidency Of W.S.G.A
Winning by one of the most decisive margins in recent years, Doris Twente, college junior, will take over the presidency of the W.S.G.A. as a result of yesterday's election.
Miss Twente defeated her opponent, Jeanne Moyer, fine arts junior, by a vote of 444 to 197.
More than 650 women cast their ballots in the election which saw the powerful Corbin-Miller-Watkins-Kappa-Theta-Gamma Phi combine sweep nine of the 12 offices. The other three candidates elected were independents. Whether they were given combine backing is difficult to ascertain.
Roach Is Vice President
Mary Ellen Roach, college junior, won the vice-presidency with 358 votes to Patty Rigg's 261. Most decisive margin went to Nadine Hunt, college sophomore, who took over the secretary post of the W.S.G.A., with a 450-166 decision over Marilyn Wheatley, college sophomore.
The office of treasure of the W.S. G.A., a two year position went to Barbara Reber, college sophomore. She defeated Barbara Jo Wilson college sophomore, by 388 to 252. Marjory Wiley, college sophomore, was chosen college representative over (continued to page eight)
Jayhawk Alumni To Assemble In Topeka Sunday

They will assemble in the roof garden of the hotel to hear a program which includes Tom Collins of the Kansas City Journal; the K.U. Glee club, a pep demonstration and a magician.
The program is to increase enthusiasm for the University and to arouse interest in the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration, June 5 to 9.
Other attractions will include five-minute speeches by Vic Hurt, assistant football coach, and Oscar Stauffer, publisher and president of the alumni association.

Navy Blue Takes Fashion Spotlight
If you like blue, red, white, green, yellow, aqua, beige, brown or black, you're set for spring. If not, how about a nudist colony?
At the Independent Student Association "Geographic Garb" show in the Union ballroom last night colors were light, bright and varied. A distinct favorite was navy blue, either freshened with lingerie frills or sailorly with red and white. Interesting.
Guided by narrator Fred Robertson, the audience took a fashion tour of Hollywood, Chicago. New York, Washington, D.C., Palm Springs, and Lawrence.
Background music was furnished by Clyde Byson's band. The theme, "You Walk By," opened the program, song by Rex Cowan and Virginia Gsell. Other vocals were done by Alice Hoad, Betty Ann Beal, and Claudine Scott.
Porter Steals Show
Models were Dorothy May, Alice Hoad, Patty Riggs, Florence Harris, Georgia Landrith, Barbara Smith, Genevieve Harman, Helen Rymph, Evelyn Kamprath, Dorothy Hendrickson, Mary Lou Lohman, Claudine Scott, Helen Meyer, and Mary Frances Fitzpatrick.
Show-stealer was Rexanne Kendall, the little girl who played "ported" by announcing each style destination with a placard.
Interesting Hollywood styles included a silk jersey of aqua, beige, and rust in hand-wide horizontal stripes; and a flashy red, black, and white number with black top, silk jersey skirt striped vertically in all three colors.
Chicago Shows Suits
Chicago featured businesslike clothes such as a light blue suit and an aqua suit with masculine lines. In New York sophistication was the keynote. Especially attractive was a dress with fitted torsolong navy top and pleated skirt in soft crepe of bright blue, red, and white print.
Fashions were patriotic in Washington, D.C. Palm Springs brought out two printed rayon shorts suits and a flowered formal fit for dancing under the best of stars.

lton's 'Prelude' Opens--program highlighted by a suly well done "Ballad for cans," but not entirely free its touches of mediocrity was fering of the University Sym- Orchestra to an audience ofximately 3,000 in Hoch audii last night.
allad For Americans' Highlights Symphony Concert
By JOHN CONARD
orchestra opened the program a highly expressive and symmetric presentation of Prof. Chas. silton's "Prelude to Electra" lization of the composer's reelath was keenly conveyed to audience through the music. we safe in saying that never he has such absolute and stead- contact been established between an orchestra and an audience in Hoch auditorium.
Relaxing, or perhaps rebounding, from the strain of the first number, the orchestra fell somewhat out of pitch and tempo on the first movement of Dvorak's symphony in E Minor, "From the New World." It seemed that there was too large a gap between the bass section of the orchestra and the higher string section.
In the Largo movement "Goin' Home," however, the orchestra warmed to its task, and a fine degree of cooperation and unity was shown among all parts of the orchestra. The outstanding feature of the entire number was Director
Karl Kuersteiner's excellent control of orchestral volume. Strains of music swelled and fell, with each instrument retaining perfectly its sound relationship within the group. Fuller Shines
Lorenzo Fuller, fine arts senior, almost stole the show from the symphony orchestra. His solo part in "De Glory Road" (Wolfe) was full of feeling, giving fine regard to expressive details throughout. His enunciation was perfect in all the difficult number, and his rich voice on the sustained notes would have done justice to any professional.
"Ballad for Americans" was definitely the high mark of the program. The ballad, based on the four high spots of American history, required the utmost in cooperation between the solo and background groups, and the cooperation was present. Fuller, although a bass, sang the higher baritone notes of the ballad with perfect ease and clarity. Serenaders A Hit
Fuller's work with the Modern Choir and Symphony Orchestra in
Animals Are Coming" arranged "by us" was exceptionally good.
The K.U. Serenaders, a Negro quartet, made a definite hit with the audience when they sang "Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho." The Serenaders were called to sing two encores, "The Animals Are Coming" and "Rock of My Soul." A special version of "The
---Fuller Vocals Shine
"Jeannie With the Light Brown Hair" is turning a dish-water blond, all right. The Glenn Bacon arrangement was different; so much different, in fact, that only in rare places could we recognize dear Jeannie. The cellos saved the day for the number, however, breaking in with their lower tones upon the established monotony of the violin.
Percy Grainger's number, "Hendel in the Strand" was a right snappy piece of clog dance rhythm, with Erna and Olga Carl, fine arts juniors, beautifully coordinating on the two solo pianos.

Fiji's, Newman's Are Favored
Fiji's,
Face Hellhounds, Betas In Playoff Semifinals Tonight
By CLINT KANAGA
The defending champion Phi Gam's, an unbeaten Newman I outfit, and two underdogs, Beta Theta Pi and the Hellhounds, will meet in tonight's semi-final contests to determine the finalists of the intramural playoffs.
The Beta's will clash with M Gams tangle with the Hell- hounds at 8:30. Pre-game favorites are Newman I and Phi Gamma Delta.
lists of the intramural playoffs.
The Beta's will clash with Newman I at 7:30 while the Phi
The Beta-Newman I game rates as an easy contest for the Newmans on paper. Fortunately, for the Beta's, basketball games are won on the courts and not on figures. Newman I is undefeated with 11 victories while the Beta's have 10 wins and 2 losses to their credit. The Newman's have rolled up 423 points against their opponents 116. The Beta record is 348 points to their opposition's 287.
Vandaveer. Fournier Are Aces
Another interesting comparison are the respective battles with Sigma Chi. Newman I downed Sigma Chi 23 to 22 in a quarterfinal playoff contest. During the regular season, the Beta's nosed out this same Sigma Chi team 21 to 19.
In Ed Vandavever, 13.5, and Joe Fournier, 13.7, Newman I has in-strumural's two top scorers. Best Beta point-getter is Bill Geiger, who has a playoff average of 11.0 and a season average of 8.5. In Marv Vandavever, hero of the Sigma Chi game; Tony Coffin, defensive ace and all-star for the past two years; and Harry Luebbe, a fine rebounder; the Newman's have three more stars of impressive ability. Against such an array of stars the Beta's will present their scrappy lineup consisting of Geiger, Fred Littooy, Harl Altman, Dont Pierce, and Bob O'Neil with John Fletcher and Jim Surface on hand to help. Hounds Are Dangerous
two days ago, a prediction on the outcome of the Phi Gam-Hellhound game would have rated the Phi Gam's victors in a walk. However, after watching the Hellhounds wallop a good Newman II team by 15 points, 37 to 22, it looks as if the Phi Gam's will have to be at their best to win.
Yet one must remember that the Hellhounds have never faced anything quite to compare with a Fiji tornado traveling at top speed, which is as good a way as any to describe Healy, McSpadden, and company in action. Ye intramural writer will stick with the Phi Gam's until "Phog" Allen takes to coaching the Beta's, Newmans, or Hellhounds. Carl Unruh and George Fleeson are the marked men on the Hellhound five, having gathered 29 of their team's 37 points in the Newman II contest.

In a thriller which saw the score change hands a half a dozen times, Phi Kappa Psi "B" relinquished a two-year hold on the "B" team championship by falling before Sigma Chi "B" 26 to 25 in last night's lone playoff contest. Incidentally, it was the Phi Psi "B" second loss over a three-year period.
Stars in the Sigma Chi's impressive victory were Jack Wilson and Jim Moore. Wilson gathered four goals in the second half while Moore shot the winning goal in the final two minutes.
Jim Brown and "Buckshot" Thomas sparked the losers. Brown scored consistently throughout the game and Thomas swished three long spectacular shots which would have made Howard Engleman jealous.
The Phi Psi's moved into an 8 to 5
first quarter lead, increased it to to 7, only to have Moore and Sn cut it to 12 to 11 at halftime.

Henry Brewing Trouble With Spinner-Wing
Several Big Six football teams are due for a big surprise next fall when they take on the Kansas eleven, if present activities on the practice field these days are any indication. For the past two weeks, thirty to forty footballers have turned out for spring training every night and are hard at work trimming waist lines and brushing up on fundamentals.
The tricky spinner wing formation, which Henry hopes to employ next fall, is a modification of the famous "T" formation used by Stanford and the Chicago Bears. The quarterback is stationed directly behind the center with the fullback about five yards straight behind. Two wing backs are lined up five or six yards to either side.
During the first half of the sessions, Gwinn Henry and Harry Lansing instruct the backs in the intricacies of the new spinner wing formation while Vic Hurt $ ^{\textcircled{1}} $
wing formation while Vic Hur supervises the linemen's block-drills.
Shades Of The "T"
Then Henry divides the squad into two offensive teams and two defensive units and calls for a half-speed scrimmage to polish up the ball-handling and clarify blocking assignments.
Instead of passing the ball in the conventional manner, the center merely hands it to the quarterback, who spins quickly around. From this position, he may hand the ball to the fullback plunging into the line, shove it to either of the wing-backs sweeping around end or off tackle, fade back for a pass, or make a full spin and dive over guard. The possibilities of this system are innumerable and highly deceptive, as most of the defensive players have learned.
Trying Many At Quarter
In last night's drill, one offensive backfield consisted of Ralph Miller, quarterback; Ed Lingquist, fullback; and Denny Gibbens and Harlan Altman wingbacks. Another combination was Ray Niblo, quarterback; Red Ettinger, fullback; and Ray Evans and Marvin Vandaveer, wingbacks.
Henry has used virtually all of his ball-carriers in the vital quarterback role this week, with Miller, Marvin and Ed Vandaver, and Niblo in that spot most often.
Spring Practice Notes: Three ex-Wellington High School athletes, Altman and the two Vandaveers, were in the same backfield Wednesday. . . Miller was in fine passing fettle yesterday, rifling the ball into receivers' arms time after time. . . Hub Ulrich did most of the pass-snagging. Niblo got off several punts at end of the session that sent the safety men scurrying back. . . Paul Hardman determines the location for the huddle by yelling "Cuddle here boys." . . Bob Githens, Eugene "Chief" Long, and Warren Hodges are a trio of potential first-string linemen up from the freshman squad.

American Complacency
When Julien Bryan, the March of Timeographer, was here last Wednesday, he of the feelings of the Americans in War Poland, when that country was invaded by Nazis.
FRIDAY, MARCH 14, 1941.
Bryan was staying at the American Emsy, and, of course, the Americans were atpting to get in touch with this country by io. He said they all were desperate to get ie word from America.
After many futile attempts, the radio opera-rushed into the room where Bryan and ers were waiting and cried that at last he I reached America. All of them ran to the io and heard—Burns and Allen.
"Our disappointment was the bitterest we ever tasted," Bryan said, "because we at seemed to realize how little interest Amerhad in us, and in the world shaking events opening in Europe."
Americans have nearly always been conicent, however. They must be frightened in ler to act.
On this campus we have many opportunities to hear and talk with men and women who derstand the world situation. Mr. Bryan was e of these men, and only a few students attended his informative lecture.
That story illustrates rather clearly the unplacent attitude of America. Of course, it not entirely fair. Even Bryan said that he er changed his ideas about the interest america took in the events preceding and during the first days of war, when he learned of thousands of Americans who stayed close their radios on those days.
Not many students heard John Flynn argue other side of the question.
Next Tuesday Leland Stowe, great war correspondent, will be here. How many students ill attend his lecture and get a real first-nd account of what is happening in Europe? It should be the duty of all students to read d hear all they can about happenings of hisric note. Every student in the University could attend, not only Stowe's lecture, but very lecture of that type that the University fers.

Students Find Pleasure In The Staff of Life
By LILLIAN FISHER
If you don't like to eat, you'd better see a doctor. If you're hungry for a certain food ,why not call a waiter,
Cheeseburgers and chili are a steady diet for many University students. Many of them, including you-I'll bet, would like to have a good roast beef dinner with mashed potatoes and creamy brown gravy. If you've starved since the last time your mother cooked a Sunday meal, it wouldn't be hard to take a
Lawrence is not a metropolis boasting ultra-fancy dining rooms, expensive grills, and novel eating places featuring foreign foods, but it does have restaurants, cafes, and tearrooms to suit anyone's mood and which can quickly serve a meal to satisfy any kind of appetite.
thick T-bone steak smothered in onions, with plenty of crispy French fried potatoes.
You know, an appetite is a funny thing. Sometimes it's there—sometimes it's not. Many an appetite is terribly "spoiled." Oh, it's neither masculine nor feminine—and yet it's both. Sometimes when it's masculine, it craves to be satisfied with a coke and a pretty girl at the other side of the table.
Most appetites have no respect for money. Although your father sent you only fifteen dollars for board, your appetite keeps demanding a big dinner—meat, potatoes, green beans, lettuce and tomato salad, biscuits, cherry pie, and coffee. Maybe you'd better trot yourself down to any one of the many cafes along Massachusetts street, but you are sure to find company at Gilkerson's Cafe or the Blue Mill.
You can get a pretty girl at the library and the cokes at the Union Fountain, Brick's Jayhawk, Rock Chalk, or the Cottage. But if you're not satisfied with "in-between-time-jellying," and your appetite begs for more, you might order a "grilled bird and a cow." More than likely the waiter would serve a toasted ham, pimento cheese, lettuce and tomato sandwich and a glass of milk.
When you feel like "splurging" take your girl to the DeLuxe Cafe on a Sunday evening and then to a show. You'd better start early, for you'll get all kinds of service
and plenty of "courses." Personal selection is so wide there, that the only thing they don't let you choose is the bill!
Some bright Sunday morning, after you've attended church with your lady, you can stroll northward to the Hotel Eldridge dining room, or leisurely walk the many blocks southward to Evans Hearth. At the Hearth the women cooks can fry a chicken that makes you think your mother fried it.
While you're at the Hearth you notice the stairway at the rear of the main hall. The hostess invites you to up to show you the lovely clubroom of the Lawrence business women. This room is often used for private bridge parties and "get-to-getheres." It is ideal for a group of thirty to fifty persons. Large comfortable chairs and davenports line the room, and a grand piano in the corner suggests group singing or a recital. A waitress goes by with a tray of tempting hors-d'oeuvres and you think to yourself that maybe your professional fraternity could meet there sometime.
The Hearth is nice for small groups, but for large, formal banquets where many people will be gathered, the Colonial Tea Room is simply the place to go. At the Colonial the huge south room provides ample space for the long banquet tables.
For those of you who are lucky enough to have cars, and are lazy enough not to "dress for dinner," the Hillside Pharmacy offers a solution. At the sound of your horn, a curb-boy will come up to your car and take your order.
If you don't have a car, an even lazier method is suggested. Telephone the Dine-a-Mite Cafe. Soon a luscious chicken dinner will be delivered to your door.
ROCK CHALK TALK
Chuck Weber, Battenfeld, was delighted when a girl with whom he had not talked for some time called to ask him for a date to the LS.A. Femi Frolie tonight. Later he met her on campus, but since he recently had a spring lawnmower-type haircut, she did not recognize him. Now he is worrying about the disillusionment that will come at the dance tonight.

The other day in Spanish class, Brian Kirby wondered why in the world everybody was laughing at him. It finally developed that Friends Jack Beck, Bob Oviatt, Bud Boddington, and Bill Hertzler had pasted on his back a sign which read, "Look what Carter's Little Liver pills did for me."
A reference room librarian was puzzled when Bill Feeney handed in his history textbook at the desk and walked out carrying a library book.
Notice to all friends of Eldred Jones: He recently won $2 in a "wahoo" contest at the Varsity theater. And he's a generous man,
John Pierson gets pink-cheeked at the mention of A. O. Pl house. He had two dates with Betty Harman and missed closing hours both times. Wednesday night after the midweek, the couple were met at the door by some of Betty's sorority sisters—with an alarm clock.
A bit of volunteer campaigning for Doris Twente was done Thursday by R. H. Wheeler, professor of psychology. Said he, "Three W.S.G.A. presidents have been psychology majors. This will make the fourth."
True, but he was a little previous about it.
Current fead at the Delta Chi house is all about the corn and hep from the phonograph. Charles Grutzmacher owns his pet record, "San Antonio Rose," which he insists on playing night and day in spite of groans and threats. Jim McNaughten also has a favorite record which he thinks deserves 24-hours attention.
Result: no harmony for Delta Chi's.

WARING ANNOUNCES---
that each college entering the contest could provide its own rules and judges. The contest would be open to any singing group. Waring agreed to furnish the trophy for the winner chosen by the local judges.
Similar proposals have been made to 50 colleges and universities throughout the country for which Waring has written and arranged alma mater and marching songs. More than 25 have already accepted the proposal.
"The Banner of Old K.U." was written by Waring last spring and presented over his Friday night program.

And those qualities depend considerably upon the way your cigarette burns.

The money thus obtained is to be used directly to aid students by the purchase of books and other educational supplies. These supplies go to refugee and internment camps.
The W.S.S.F. is an international organization set up for the relief of Chinese and European students deprived of educational facilities by the war. A fund of $100,000 is to be raised. $50,000 of which is to be sent to China and the rest to Europe. The organization is an outgrowth of the Far Eastern Student Service Fund which has been active on the campus in the past years.
The committee of three to pick the chairmen was chosen last Wednesday at a meeting of the heads of all major organizations on the campus.
John Moore, executive secretary of the Y.M.C.A.; Sue Johnston, college junior; and Paul Gillis, college sophomore will meet tomorrow in the Pine Room of the Memorial Union building from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. to interview candidates for the chairmanship of a drive to be conducted by the World Student Service Fund. Two chairmen, both a student and a faculty member, are needed.

DANDELION DAY Student Leaders Plan One-Day War For Lawn and Order
War is at hand. Invasion is inevitable. The enemy is waiting only for good weather.
At a meeting of campus organization leaders in the Memorial Union building yesterday it was decided that 4,000 well-armed students should eradicate all opposition in a one-day stand.
Dandelions—their army is our enemy. They are the ones who wait for good weather. They are the ones who bring students a day's vacation.
Vacation for a day—when the dandelions come. Two weeks, three
weeks, or four weeks from now, but vacation when they come.
The battle for the preservation of lawn and order will be waged and won in the morning. Charles Wright, fine arts senior, has been selected tentatively as commanding officer for the fray. He will organize 75 squads of 20 men and 10 women, with a captain for each team. A prize will be awarded the team bagging the most dandelions.

Street dancing will be featured in the celebration. Oread avenue will be blocked from traffic, sawdust will be sprinkled liberally, and the bands of Clyde Bysom, Clayton Harbur, and the K.U. Coeds will supply the boogie woogie.
Inspection Trip Ends Conference
The thirteenth annual conference of the Kansas Water and Sewage Works Association ended Saturday with an inspection trip to the water and sewage treatment plants at Ottawa, Garnett, Iola, and Chanute. The trip ended at Chanute where lunch was served.
The conference started at the University Thursday morning. The last session on the Hill was the annual banquet which was held in the Memorial Union Friday night. Two motion pictures provided entertainment. The next conference of the Association will be held at the University in January, 1942.
Choose Engine Queen Coulson Reigns; Not A Lawyer
When Tommy Arbuckle, master of ceremonies at the Hobnail Hop, stepped up to the microphone Friday night to introduce the queen of the Engineers, the 400 dancers in the Memorial Union building ballroom were curious as to the outcome of the election as well as wondering what the law students were going to do.
Early Friday morning, someone gave the statue of the law's Uncle Jimmy Green a new spring coat—of bright green paint. When the sun came up, and the lawyers started strolling in to the law barn, they saw green—and then red.
Friday afternoon, Arbuckle and five other engineers came over to Green hall and removed the paint from Uncle Jimmy's bronze back with gasoline, but no one thought the incident was closed. Rumor was that the lawyers would try to kidnap the queen during the dance; or, that they would raid the dance with stinkbombs.

Art Meet Ends Two Day Session
Time magazine says, "Take a poll among newsmen for ace correspondents of World War II and Leland Stowe's name would probably top the list."
Stowe, recently returned from war-torn Europe after following Hitler's armies in Poland, Norway, and Denmark, feels that England is the only remaining obstacle between Germany and world dominion. Even the United States will not be able to withstand the dictatorships. The lecturer who should be "in the know" has been covering the war for the Chicago Daily News. He scooped the world on three different occasions last April when Hitler took over different North European countries.

Memorial Union building loungers who have been chased from their haunts the past couple of days may go back to the peace and quiet they once knew. The first annual Kansas High School Art Conference packed up and left yesterday.
Miss Marjorie Whitney, assistant professor of design who was in charge of the conference, remarked, "We were delighted by the attendance and the success of this convention and intend to continue it annually."
Vocational conferences between well-known instructors and the students proved highly successful. Discussions were led by Miss Maud Ellsworth, T.D. Jones, and J.M. Kellogg, members of the University faculty, Edna Marie Dunn, fashion illustrator of the Kansas City Star, and Dorothy Buxton, interior decorator from Kansas City. Mo.
The state was well represented by 300 delegates from various high schools. Interest was high. Thirty-five students came from Wichita, and 10 students came from Scott City, some 400 miles away.
Final Vespers Will Be Held Today
The Choir, in the direction of Dean D. M. Swarthout, will sing "Transylvanian Lament" (Kodaly) and "O God, Hear My Prayer" (Gretchaninoff).
The A Cappella Choir, Men's Glee Club, and University Symphony orchestra highlight the season's final all-musical Vespers program which begins at 4 p.m. today.
"Hark the Vesper Hymn is Stealing" (Russian air) and "Steal Away" (Negro spiritual) will be sung by the Men's Glee Club. The Symphony orchestra, under the direction of Prof. Karl Kuersteiner, will play the allegro finale of Dvorak's "Symphony from the New World."
Guy Criss Simpson, assistant professor of organ and piano, will play on the organ "Chorale in B Minor" (Cesar Franck). "Ave Verum" (Mozart) will be played by a string ensemble.
Meribah Moore, associate professor of voice, will sing a soprano solo, "Ave Maria" (Kahn), with a violin obligato by Eugene Ninger, fine arts junior and organ accompaniment by Guy Criss Simpson.
"Quintette in One Movement" (Loeffler), an ensemble number for three violins, viola and cello, will be played by Waldemar Geltch, professor of violin, Ninginger, Marvin Zoschke, fine arts freshman, Karl Kuersteiner, and Raymond Stuhl, assistant professor of violin and orchestra.
The program is open to the public without charge and will last slightly more than an hour.

Party Bug Hits Campus; Phi Delts Go Night Clubbing
Dining and dancing! What could be more fun? Nothing, apparently, for there were six parties on the Hill last night.
The Phi Delts converted their chapter house into a night club for their annual Phi Delt Mess. Cars drove up under a canopy at the front entrance.
Inside, walls were covered with blue and white crepe paper, ceilings with streamers. In the main dancing room, 3,000 balloons, all colors, clustered everywhere.
Dinner was served at tables for six and eight around the edge of the room. In the "cocktail lounge" young men and their dates had drinks at a blue and silver bar. The routeite wheel was also a popular spot.
I'll try to be as faithful as possible. It looks like a picture of a woman wearing a plaid coat and hat, with some flowers in the background.

Still another party with dining and dancing was at the Alpha Chi Sigma House.

"Kansas as few Kansans know it." That is the picture porlayed by the booklet, "Resource-Full Kansas," recently reused by the University and the Kansas State Geological Surry.
Kansas is primarily an agricultural state and many of its habitats fail to realize the importance of its mineral reources. "Resource-Full Kansas," by K.K. Landes of the Kansas Geological Survey, and Oren R. Bingham of the photographic bureau, is "dedicated to the people of Kansas in the hope at the information given will $ ^{\textcircled{4}}$

anks Seventh in Minerals The booklet reveals that Kansas anks seventh in the country in the nual value of mineral products, ing surpassed by Texas, Pennsylnia, California, Oklahoma, West regina, and Louisiana. The anal Kansas output of mineral raw materials amounts to more than 50,000,000.
Mineral industries in the state ink second only to agriculture and e growing steadily.
The booklet treats only those resources coming from underground. stroleum ranks first in importance the state, contributing about 60 per cent of the total. Natural gas second and zinc is the third ranking mineral in Kansas. These tree are followed in order by coal, ment, stone, salt, lead, clay products, sand and gravel, gypsum, nats, volcanic ash, and native asalt.

Figures in the booklet show that ansas is fourth among the otherates in the total amount of oil procured and also ranks third in national zinc production.
There are 100 pictures in the poklet, showing the various mineral industries and the work of the ecological survey. The mineral resources are treated separately, giving explanation, a short history, the location and importance of each. "Resource-Full Kansas" is being distributed by the Kansas Geological Survey, the Kansas Industrial development Commission, and the state Board of Education.

Chemical Elements Go On Display In Bailey
How many of the chemical elements have you seen
A collection of chemical elements and the compounds in which they were first found have been placed in exhibition on the first floor hall of the Bailey Chemical Laboratories by Miss Elvira Weeks, associate professor of chemistry. The collection represents about two years $ ^{2} $
represents about two work by Miss Weeks.
Among the elements in the collection is a specimen of gallium, a metal which has a melting point near room temperature. One day it may be a solid and the next day a liquid. A large blue crystal of copper sulphate nearly four inches wide was "grown" by DeLoss Winkler, graduate student, over a period of a year. There are samples of gold ore, silver ore, fool's gold, and pitchblende in the collection. Radium is obtained from pitchblende.
Miss Weeks plans to add to the exhibit a collection of inert gases. These gases-neon, helium, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon-will be illuminated by an electric current passing through them. Some of them are used in advertising signs.
The exhibit will be completed in time for the annual physical science conference which will be held here at the University Saturday.

Lindley, Moritz Popular In China
Hoover was scheduled to speak before several Hill groups yesterday but was delayed in Dayton by a snowstorm. He was to stop in Lawrence on his way from New York to San Francisco. From San Francisco he will embark for China.
Through the work and contacts with Paul Moritz, '39, last year's honor man, and the late Dr. E. H. Lindley, the University of Kansas has become well-known and highly thought of in Chinese circles, Lyman Hoover, American advisor to the National Student staff of the YM-C.A. in China, said last night in a 25-minute telephone conversation from Kansas City with John Moore, executive secretary of the YM-C.A.
Hoover was particularly eager, Moore said, to tell some University people personally about the work of Moritz and his contacts with the late Dr. E. H. Lindley in China.
According to Hoover, Moritz was accorded the same reception as a diplomatic ambassador on his arrival in China since the traditional social scale of China places the student at the top, and Moritz represented the students of America.
"Doors opened to Moritz that were generally opented only to ambassadors and high state officials, from Chiang Kai-Shek on down," said Hoover.

AMONG THOSE whom Dick Harp, John Kline, and Howard Engleman may face with the College of Commerce club in the National A.A.U. tourney opening today in Denver will be Hank Luisetti, former Stanford scoring marvel, whom the tournament fathers hope will attract a few extra customers through the turnstiles . . . It was rumored earlier in the week that Luisetti, a member of the San Francisco Olympic club, would see no service in the event, but since then Hank has reassured everyone concerned that he will not call it quits until after tournament time . . . The Olympics along with the veteran Denver Legions and the defending champion Phillips 66 are favored over a 51 team field.

The Newman's boast a season record of 12 straight wins and no defeats to the Phi Gam's 11 victories and one defeat. The Newman's, in comparison with similar teams as opponents, have a more impressive record in two of three instances. The Newman's won from Sigma Chi 23 to 22 and the Hellhounds 36 to 14. The Phi Gam's suffered their single loss to the Sigma Chi's 25 to 24 and downed the Hellhounds 37 to 28. Only in respect to the Beta's, do the Phi Gam's stand better. The Fijis walloped the Beta's 54 to 26 while the Newman's won from this same Beta outfit 30 to 19.

At forwards, will be Larry McSpadden and Roscoe Hambric, first and second team all-star selections respectively last year. Both Hambric and McSpadden are small, each measuring about 5' 9". McSpadden was high scorer in division II with an average of 12.9 while Hambric, after a slow start, finished the season with several fine performances. In Chain Healy at center, the Fiji's have probably the best intramural basketer, and co-captain of the first all-star a year go.

Coach Norton is a member of the advisory committee of coaches headed by Dick Harlow, Harvard head coach, and is in favor of simplifying the numbering so that the game may be more understandable for the fans. He also pointed out that the changes recommended will go a long way in eliminating the trick numbering followed by some coaches in an effort to confuse the opposition.
College Station, Texas, March 15—(Special)Texas Aggie football players will be numbered hereafter according to the recommendations of the advisory committee of coaches, rules committee, National Collegiate Athletic Association, which recommendations of the advisory committee of coaches, rules 20. of the new rules. Head*
Coach Homer Norton announced here this week.
In the line the centers will be numbered from 50 to 59; guards from 60 to 69; tackles from 70 to 79 and ends from 80 to 89 with all the even numbers on the right side of the center and the odd digits on the left side of the line.
The change will also do away with the terms halfback and quarterback which long since have become misnomers under the wingback box, "T" and other backfield formations.
"I have always been opposed to those trick jersies and hard-to-decipher numbers and am glad to be among the first to take the lead in rectifying that questionable practice." Norton said.
Avoids Confusion.
Henceforth all Texas Aggie home football programs will list the backs as wingback, blocking back, fullback and tailback. By way of clarification, those positions in 1940 were held down in order by: Derace Moser, Jim Thomason, John Kimbrough and Marion Pugh who were listed on the programs as left halfback, right halfback, fullback and quarterback.
A Number to Each Position
The new numbering system will tell John Fan just what position any player holds down on the offense lineup simply by remembering that any boy wearing a number from 10 to 19 is a wingback; if from 20 to 29 he is a blocking back; from 30 to 39 he is a fullback; and from 40 to 49 he is a tailback.
He pointed out that the Texas Aggie numbers always have been plain (continued to page five)

In the evening's opener, the Newman's were never in any trouble after the first half. They moved to 6 to 5 first quarter lead on goals by E. Vandaveer and Joe Fournier. Tone Coffin, Newman's fine guard, camp through with three successive one-handed jump shots in the second quarter to give his teammates a comfortable 16 to 9 halftime score. Marc Vandaveer, Fournier, and Harry Luebe all registered points before the Betas hit the hoop the second half, to mount the margin to 23 t 9.
A Drab Ending
Bill Geiger, high scoring Beta dropped in two successive under basket shots followed by teammate Harlan Altman's free toss, matched only by a short shot by Fournier to bring the score to 25 to 14 at the third quarter. Only outstanding feature of the fourth quarter were two beautiful shots executed by Bot O'Neil, Beta guard, the game ending 30 to 19 with the Betas on the short end of the score.

Hill Cue Artist To Billiard Meet
Lloyd Greene, junior engineer, will go to Madison, Wisconsin on March 22 where he will compete in the championship pocket billiard tournament sponsored by the Association of Student Unions.
Greene was high individual in the Western tournament when Kansas competed with Wyoming University, South Dakota State College, and Colorado State College. The tournament was held by wire under the supervision of Charles C. Peterson, billiard expert.
On the eve of the tournament Kansas had not thought of entering but when Peterson gave his exhibition here that evening, he urged Frank Eaton, business senior to enter a team in the contest. Eaton selected a team of five men since there was not time to hold an eliminator tournament. The five men selected were Joe Davison, sophomore engineer; Dick Powell, pharmacy freshman; John Laughlin, freshman engineer; Dick Burgess, business senior; and Greene. The team placed second with 300 points while Wyoming won first place with 301 points.
A straight rail billiard tournament and a three cushion billiard tournament will be held by the Association of Student Unions around March 25. The dates of these tournaments and the dates of elimination tournaments for each will be announced soon by the Memorial Union.

Joe Fournier and Ed Vandaveer, 5' 8" and 5' 11" respectively, are the two lads with scoring averages better than 13 points per game. Vandaveer starred in the playoff opener against the Sigma Chi's while Fournier was the standout in the Beta contest. Harry Luebbe, a 6' rebounding ace holds the pivot position. At the guard posts are Marv Vandaveer, Buccaneer star of '40, and Tony Coffin, who teamed with Fournier on the Galloping Ghosts last year.

and on contrasting colors so there would be no confusion in identifying his players. He also called attention to the fact that insofar as possible he tried to avoid having two men in the lineup at the same time whose numbers might cause the fans and sports writers any trouble. The last time there was any amount of mixup was when Joe Boyd and Ernie Pannell wore 64 and 54, respectively, and often one got credit for the other's good work
when only the last number could be seen. "We will number our starters to avoid that trouble next year," he added.
Another letter received by coach Norton from Lou Little, Columbia coach, and chairman, Coaches Rules Committee, asked that all members of the Football Coaches Association cooperate in adopting the recommended system.

rough play, the Phi Gam's won their second playoff contest by nine points to move into the finals against Newman I. The first quarter was close with the score 10 to 8, Phi Gam's favor. During the second period, the Phi Gam defense tightened holding the Hellhounds to one field goal, a post shot by Presson Shane while Chain Healy tallied eight points for the Fijis. Half score was: Phi Gam 21, Hellhounds 11.
With Larry McSpadden, star Fiji forward, out during the third quarter the Hellhounds, led by Shane and Bob White, began to cash in on their helter-skelter ball, cutting the Phi Gam lead to 22 to 18. Valle Schloesser and Carl Unruh then fouled out, and with McSpadden back in, the Phi Gam attack began to function. Roscoe Hambric, Phi Gam, grabbed three one-handed shots in close unison to cinch the game in his team's favor.
Game stars were Healy and Hambric for the Phi Gam's and Shane and Bob White for the Hellhounds.

Sunday, March 16, 1941
W.S.G.A. Elects
The Women's Self-Governing Association has elected Doris Twente president for next year. The Kansan congratulates Miss Twente on the honor which she has received.
For some weeks, the Kansan has criticized both the W.S.G.A. and the Men's Student Council, but there has been little criticism of persons. The Kansan believes that K.U. student government is failing to exercise one of its greatest potential powers—that of unifying the students on the campus and presenting an integrated front to those outside the University.
Under the present system, the problem of instilling loyalty to K.U. in students is difficult. The task would be greatly simplified by a combination council or at least a master council to coordinate and hold the upper hand over the two present councils.
We hope that Miss Twente will work for more progressive government. At least, new ideas should have a fair chance. So far this year, everything has been "tabled" that has the hue of progress on it. "Tabled" evidently means that the councils are afraid to drop the idea—and afraid to do anything about it. Perhaps next year things will be different.
But next year is a long way off. There is plenty of time left if the councils were really interested in doing something to justify their existence.
Women in Defense Program
"Women's most important work is the strengthening of community life and social well-being. The weak links in community life and social well-being may be found in the fields of health nutrition, recreation, and child care." This is the answer of Harriet Elliott, the only woman on the National Defense Advisory Commission, to the plea of women all over the country for some real part in the defense program.
Every woman in the University has a direct responsibility to her home community to strengthen its life and social well-being. This responsibility is a direct result of her educational advantages. The means of doing it are varied. It may be one of those suggested by Harriet Elliott.
It may be the Junior League, Girl Scouts, American Association of University Women, or the National Federation of Business and Professional Women's clubs. There are no limits to the opportunities for helping to strengthen the nation.
More important than front line guns is a unified, contented, well-fed nation. Miss Elliott says, "The better our homes are organized; the more service our schools, churches and local organizations can give our communities, the better prepared we will be to meet whatever demands the future may make of us." Like everything important, preparedness begins in the home.
Mother Nature and the City
The city is one of the most powerful sociological forces in our civilization, as well as the most nervewracking and heterogeneous. People in cities are overcrowded, do more rushing
Mad as a bride left at the altar is Mother Nature these days. For the past thirty years all her boy friends, the potential farmers of America, have been ditching her for the city, leaving her with an ever decreasing rural population.
around and have poorer health than the country mice. But people still move to urban centers and here is the crux of Mother Nature's bitterness.
One of the principal reasons why rural population looks to the city is the increase in the proportion of the people engaged in producing commodities and in rendering regular service. Another important factor is the decrease in the proportion of part-time agricultural workers residing on farms. We find, too, that the increase in the ratio of working years per capita to the per capita life span, puts another piece in the puzzle. This shows us that the amount of work a person is able to do over his lifetime is growing greater all the time.
A decrease in the amount of farm labor time absorbed in clearing, draining, and fencing land, as well as equipping it with structural improvements, has broken down the farming frontier.
Technological improvements and the luxury and leisure complex have turned the eyes of the farmer to the city. Another thing to add to Mother Nature's worry is the lessening importance of agricultural products in our nation's exports.
At the beginning of the century many immigrants took up agriculture as a livelihood; today anybody who leaves Europe is too worn out economically and spiritually to turn to farming.
And then if there's any doubt still remaining in Mother Nature's mind about the source of her misery she can always lay it at the feet of The Grapes of Wrath.

St. Patrick--More Than Snake Charmer
You know that he banished snakes and toads from Ireland, and that we wear shamrocks on March 17 in his memory. You now that he was an Irish Saint, and that his name was Patrick.
But did you know that he had the power of bringing darkness down upon his enemies at will, and that when he died his glory prevented for 12 days the falling of night? Yes, it's all so, if we are to believe the legends.
Jonathan Swift tells how he used to converse with the spirit of the good Saint while fishing on the sacred waters of the Sanctuary in Donegal. Swift describes Patrick as a "picturesque figure dressed scare-crowlike but with the features and tuft of the Emperor Napoleon III."
The Saint often told Swift the tales of the lake—how he had killed a wonderful monster, the greatest snake in Ireland, between two of the islands and the space was called the "bloody gap" ever since.

书
THE BATTLE FOR ASIA, by Edgar Snow. New York: Random House, 1941. (431 pages, with index.)
As the Sino-Japanese war limps through its fourth year, Edgar Snow writes a history and makes a prophecy. In The Battle for Asia, Snow the newspaperman reports fact; Snow the individual predicts.
The author, a Missouriian, 34 years of age and a correspondent of the London Herald, has written one other noteworthy book, Red Star Over China, which pictures Chinese politics before the outbreak of war and forecasts much of what has happened since. Continuing the analysis, Snow's second book describes and interprets the war and speculates on the future.
The Battle for Asia, which is really a battle for China, begins with the occupation of Peking by the Japanese. The war is off to an unhappy start. The "Nips" sweep past Peking, War breaks out in Shanghai. After a gallant but costly defense of Shanghai for three months, the Chinese fall back. Nanking is lost. Hankow falls. Canton is overrun. The Japanese control all of the important political and industrial cities in China.
The Japanese patiently wait for the enemy to surrender. After four years, they are still waiting.
This is Snow's story. He sees the war.
Walking along, one saw here and there a clenched fist fencing a hurried grave, or an arm or a leg or a smashed skull. Students of anatomy, you would enjoy this scene, this careless vivisect by a bomb. Right in the main road that had been the bus route where green vegetables came in to feed Shanghai, pedestrians passed unseeing on a bridge across a redoubt choked with dead. Live hand grenades studded the path where lines of farmers trod. There you saw an identification tag in the mud: Chang Yuming was represented by a piece of uniform, the rest of him in lupine dogs that ranged across the paddy full of worms.
Three things stand out in Snow's account of the war: the cracks and flaws in the Central government headed by Chiang Kai-shek; the effectiveness of the Communists, militarily, politically and economically; and the success of cooperatives under both factions.
You may not like Snow's controversial beliefs. In addition to sponsoring the Chinese Communists, a sponsorship seemingly justified by their record, the author asks for abolition of world empires, and he feels that the United States should enter vigorously into Far Eastern politics. He presents forceful arguments, but falls short of complete conviction. At times, Snow seems too hopeful in his prophecy. But his enthusiasm for world reform and gentle revolution is contagious. Surely every reader is aroused when he is shown the political and economic ulcers of a continent. Mr. Snow salves our pained sensibilities and nurses our idealism with optimistic "Ifs."
The Battle for Asia unfolds its dramatic story like a good newsreel. It is sound journalism. Snow is a good reporter. Though his personal beliefs seem to influence his account of the year, he is always convincing and colorful. This is current history, and making allowance for the author's nearness in time, it competently recorded.
Bill Overton, first year law and cook at Brick's, finds that customers are hard to please. One little blonde has given him a lot of trouble lately. First he had to strain her soup because vegetables were fattening. Then she wanted some buttermilk, but since she doesn't like buttermilk smell, it had to be put in a fresh bottle and recapped. Yesterday she wanted the raisins taken out of her rice pudding.

Buy Conservatory To Display Flowers
A place to display rare and beautiful flowers is to be added to the campus. The University has purchased a conservatory type greenhouse in which to exhibit various ornamental and tropical plants.
The greenhouse, covering 1,435 square feet, was purchased from Jerome Bray in Kansas City, Mo. It was dismantled and brought over on trucks. Through Mr. Bray's interest in the University the building was obtained at low cost.
It will be erected during the summer and will be located southwest of the doghouse on the Fifteenth Street road. A parking space will be made in front of the greenhouse for the convenience of visitors.
Flowers to be placed in the greenhouse will be chosen for their rareness, beauty, and general interest to the public. Its interior decoration will probably include a fish pool.
A number of flowers and material for the pool have already been contributed for display. Any other contributions will be welcomed.
Thomas Awarded $1,000 Assistantship At Harvard

When Coronado and his party went through Kansas 400 years ago, they unknowingly contributed a specimen for Dyche Museum.
Coronado Specimen In Museum
One of the men in Coronado's party lost a Spanish halberd, a type of long handled weapon used especially during the 15th and 16th centuries.
SCHULZ THE TAILOR
The halberd was sent to the museum in about 1926. T. H. Martin, in charge of the Museum of Vertebrate Faleontology at that time, checked the location at which the halberd was found and there is no doubt that it was lost by a member of Coronado's party while in Kansas.
The halberd was cleaned and placed in the museum by Vernon Mahon, college freshman, who is in charge of the arrangement of exhibits on the mezzanine floor of Dyche.
Art Students Hear Sandzen
"We have an unlimited amount of artistic talent in the middle west," Birger Sanden, outstanding Kansas artist, told 140 high school artist and teachers at the high school are conference banquet held Friday night in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building.
"We have some of the nations finest artists right here in Kansas and we are contributing generously to the national art." Professor Sandzen continued.
Delegates to the conference were welcomed by Chancellor Deane W. Malott. D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, also greeted the delegates and told them that if they were to bring art to the people, it would be through organized effort such as the conference they were attending.
Toastmaster was Albert Bloch, professor of drawing and paintings. Music was furnished by the K.U. Serenaders, negro quartet, who sang five numbers.

Will Speed Graduation To Race Draft
High school graduates of this spring, afraid of hitting binge in the draft game before completing four years of college education, may well take heart.
Beginning with June, 1941, summer sessions may be utilized and by special arrangements of schedules the A.B. or B.S. degree may be obtained in August of 1944, it has been announced by Chancellor Deane W.Ma lott.
The new program is available in all departments of the College of Liberal Arts, in the School of Business, in the music departments of the School of Fine Arts, and in the School of Education. Special arrangements are also available in the School of Engineering and Architecture for summer work reducing by half a year the length of time required for these courses.
"This is one way to help remove some of the uncertainty by making it possible to obtain an education uninterrupted by national defense." These were the words of the Chancellor. "I guess you'd say, I'm for it."
Three Graduates on Card Engineers Dine Thursday

Three graduates of the University, now employed with the Phillips Petroleum company, Bartlesville, Okla. will explain the various phases of gasoline production. Stanley Learned, assistant manager of the gas pipe line division, will discuss the design and operation of gasoline production plants.
Kindsvater To Talk
Emil F. Kindsvater, chief engineer of the department of engineering,
who was graduated in 1923, will talk on the materials used in the various operations.
George P. Bunn, Sr., superintendent of the gasoline department, will explain some of the theories of gasoline production. He is the father of George Bunn, Jr., who was graduated in 1940, and Stewart Bunn, junior engineer. Allen Crafton, professor of dramatic arts, will act as toastmaster.

Death was caused by a liver difficulty, following an operation last September.

Chairman Posts Not Yet Filled
Prospective chairmen for the University's World Student Service Fund drive were interviewed yesterday by a committee composed of John Moore, Y.M.C.A. executive secretary, Sue Johnston, college junior; and Paul Gilles, college sophomore.
Several persons were considered for both the student and faculty chairman positions, but final decisions were postponed until a meeting Thursday afternoon.

Mill Tax Levy Passes House By 75-44 Vote
The one-fourth mill tax levy bill which assures the long range building program for state schools passed the Kansas House of Representatives this morning by a vote of 75 to 43.
The bill has been sent back to the senate for concurrence to house amendments and the bill is expected to be sent to the governor before the end of the week.
In speaking of the passage of the bill Chancellor Deane W. Malott said early this afternoon, "I think it is a great step forward for the educational institutions of the state to have the legislature recognize the building needs of the educational program."
The levy on all property subject to ad valorem taxation will begin in 1942 and is expected to raise about $600,000 per year.
Beginning in 1943 the state Board of Regents will submit an annual report to the legislature showing the needs of state schools in new buildings, equipment and construction.
Schedule Foreign Correspondent For Two Speeches On War Tomorrow
Lekand Stowe, famed foreign correspondent who will speak at 8:20 o'clock tomorrow night in Hoch auditorium, will be the guest speaker at a special dinner meeting of Sigma Delta Chi, men's honorary journalism fraternity, tomorrow night, Larry Winn, president of the organization, said today. Dolph Simons, business manager of the Lawrence Journal World, will also be a guest speaker.
The dinner meeting will be held at 6:30 o'clock tomorrow night in the Old English room of the Memorial Union building. "In answer to our invitation Stowe said he would be glad to attend if he are
rived in Lawrence on time," Winn said.
The well-known reporter will discuss "Hitler Over Europe" in his speech in Hoch auditorium. For the past 15 years he has been covering the European news front, including the uprisings and revolution in Spain, the Ethiopian war, the overthrow of the French government, and trans-Atlantic flights of Lindbergh and others.
In 1930 Stowe was awarded the Pulitzer prize for the best interpretative writings of any American correspondent abroad with his dispatches on the Young reparations program.
Material, incidents and experiences which make up the body of the talk he will give here, were gained through touring Europe since the spring of 1339, and following the movements of Hitler and the war situation.

Fitting Climax For Vespers
It was a fitting climax to the allmusical Vespers series which was heard by an audience of less than 1,000 in Hoch auditorium Sunday afternoon. A climax to the Vespers series, and well it might have been the climax of several individual and group musical careers.
"Ave Maria" (Kahn), a solo by Miss Meribah Moore, associate professor of voice, was sung in a manner which any vocalist would be willing to ascribe to the peak of his career.
In Excellent Voice
Miss Moore was in excellent voice for the number, and "Ave Maria" was definitely appealing throughout. a skilfully-played violin obligator by Eugene-Ninginger, fine arts junior, and keenly sympathetic organ accompaniment by Guy Criss Simpson, assistant professor of organ and
piano, added to the already delightful number.
The Men's Glee Club, directed by Joseph Wilkins, professor of voice, did some of its best work of the season when they sang in their usual fine manner the Negro spiritual "Steal Away." Also good was "Hark! The Vesper Hymn is Stealing," sung with Marshall Butler, fine arts special student, accompanying the number at the piano. Choir Gives Two Numbers
The University A Cappella Choir of 80 voices, under the direction of Dean D. M. Swarthout, appeared in two of its most difficult and effective numbers, giving a splendid performance of "Transylvania's Lament" (Kodaly) and the great anthem by Gretchaninoff, "O God, Hear My Prayer."
The University Symphony orchestra, directed by Prof. Karl Kuersteiner, closed the program playing with spirit and fine effect the last movement of the "New World" symphony by Dvorak.
Spalding Elected President of Union Activities Group
Keith Spalding, college junior, was elected president of the Union Activities committee to assume duties next fall, at a meeting of the committee last night. He will replace Carter Butler, college senior.
Nation Meyer, college sophomore, was elected vice-president and Nancy Kerber, fine arts junior, will be secretary.
You can find a substitute for almost anything—except honesty.
Group To Study Business Courses
A committee, headed by E. B. Dade, professor of economics, has been appointed by the staff of the School of Business to make a study of the business curricula to find out how it may be changed in accordance with the changing picture made by the defense program.
It was voted to put Military Science on the same basis as other electives in the School of Business. Military Science had formerly been included with law, education, and fine arts in a group with a maximum of 15 hours credit. It is now an open general elective course for business students.
It was further decided to reduce the minimum age limit for admission of special students in business from 22 years to 21. That is the minimum age of special students in other divisions of the University, F. T. Stockton, dean of the School of Business, said.

Tonight at 7:30 o'clock, the Phi Gams will attempt to cinch the intramural cage championship in their second game with Newman I.

outfit should win tonight, a third game will be played Wednesday.
McSpadden Sinks Four
McSpadden moved at top speed during the second period, swishing four goals as halftime found the Phi Gams ahead, 22 te 16. During this quarter, Joe Fourner and Cliff Nordstrom. Newmans, paced their team's offense with two baskets apiece. Healy aided McSpadden with two one-hand jump shots.
By the end of the third quarter the Phi Gams had built up a nine-point lead, the score being 34 to 25. Mc-

Spadden continued his pree, tallying seven in eight minutes. Nordstrom fired in long one-hand shots to keep his team in the ball game.
Pull Away in Fourth
Healy, Hinshaw, and Hambric netted goals in rapid succession in the fourth quarter to put the game on ice, with a 40 to 26 score. Coffin and Nordstrom led a Newman rally which cut the score to 41-35, but Healy, Long, and McSpadden scooped in five more points and Nordstrom's final bucket found the Fijis ahead 46 to 38.
Game stars were numerous. Cliff Nordstrom's brilliant shooting and Tony Coffin's matching of Chain Healy goal for goal were the top Newman performances.
Larry McSpadden was the game standout, exhibiting fine all-around play in addition to top scoring honors. Healy's rebounding and Hinshaw's finest performance of the year were other highlights of the game.
Marvin Thompson, college freshman, who suffered severe burns several weeks ago, is recovering nicely.
Ex-Cagers Star In Commerce Win
Howard Engleman, John Kline, and Dick Harp, former Jayhawker basketball stars, were just about the whole show as the College of Commerce team, from Kansas City rolled over Douglas, Wyo., 52-17 in the National A.A.U. basketball championships in Denver, Sunday night.
"Rope" was up to his old tricks by dumping in nine field goals and a free throw for a total of 19 points and high scoring honors. Harp and Kline, playing at the guard positions, rolled in nine and six points respectively.

This will be Harris first taste of competition this year, although he has worked out with the Jayhawk track squad since last fall.

Earlier in the season, Harris, Big Six 2-mile champion, circled the indoor track underneath the stadium in a 4:18 mile, and last Wednesday as a final warning that he can't be counted out in Kansas City, he

Mehl Is Favored, But--- Harris-Munski Feud Will Flare Again at AAU
An old feud that blazed through three years of varsity competition, will be renewed when Ray Harris, last year's Jayhawk co-captain, meets "Lonesome John" Munski, Big Six mile champion from Missouri, in a special mile at the A.A.U. indoor track and field meet March 24 in Kansas City.
Harris holds a slight edge over Munski in indoor competition. "Lone John" finished ahead of Harris indoors when they were both sophomores, but in his junior year, the lean Kansan won both the Butler Relays mile, and the Big Six indoor mile.
Kansan Holds Slight Edge.
Besides Harris, varsity track coach, Bill Hargiss, will take a sizeable squad to the A.A.U. meet. Bob Stoland, who suffered a pulled muscle in the Big Six indoor, is not expected to be ready for the meet, but will wait for the outdoor season to reenter competition.
In addition to individual performers Hargiss plans to enter both a mile and a two mile relay team. Dick Edwards, Don Thompson, Al Poznick, and Harris will probably comprise the two mile relay.

"All positions are open," said Phog," in accounting for the large number reporting. The recently-appointed baseball mentor was pleased with the interest and enthusiasm shown by candidates.
Spirit Buoys Baseball Hopes
But from last year's squad of 26, Allen has only five regulars reporting. "Baseball talent here has run out through lack of interest, and we will have to start from the beginning in building a team in time for the first game," the coach said.
Batting practice and running bases was included in yesterday's hard work-out. "Phog" and Frank Bu-

A Trillion Tones---- In Organs Made With Skill
---Reuter Factory
A
Assuming that you know how to play a pipe organ, if you were to play, at the rate of one a second, every possible tone combination at your finger tips, it would take you 34,800 years. Hence, not even the professional artist uses all the possible tones of his instrument. Besides, it would do little good if he could, since nine-tenths of these shadings and nuances of sound are not perceptible to the human ear.
If these facts are not already a part of your knowledge concerning pipe organs, the chances are that they will be when you go through the Reuter Organ factory here in Lawrence. For, in all probability, the man who $ ^{ \textcircled{1}} $
will conduct you through this interesting concern is John Selig, sales manager for A. C. Reuter, the man who "makes music along the Kaw."
Though not a player himself, Mr. Selig has a genuine love for the instrument which he has sold in nearly every state. His main complaint is that most players never begin to use their organ.
While pointing at a new set of pipes which are being tuned, he will tell you. "These pipes are capable of a trillion tone combinations, yet the average organist will use only a dozen. Our music conservatories go on teaching the same routine in the mechanics of playing a pipe organ when they should be teaching the future artists how to create new musical patterns of their own."
The Reuter Organ Factory is housed in a five-story construction and assembly building and a three-story office and engineering building on the banks of the river at the foot of New Hampshire street. They welcome visitors; a tour of the plant is a veritable "journey in the land of the music-makers."
Only a few operations in construction are not done at the factory. The ebony keys, for instance, are cut to size before they are shipped in from the East. The electric cables are not made here. But everything else, from winding the ting armatures for the electro-mag-
posts to the actual cabinet-work of the console itself, can be seen in operation in Lawrence. The metal for the pipes is alloyed, smelted, and rolled in Reuter's own smelting rooms. Soft white pine from southern forests goes into the construction of the wooden pipes; hard oak, maple, and spruce from northern forests is used in making fancy consoles, each stained to harmonize with the woodwork of the church where the organ is to be installed.
One of the most fascinating operations is that of the "voicer," whose musical ear is so highly trained that he can tell whether a pipe is playing out of tune when it may sound perfect to the ordinary ear. As each set of pipes, wooden or metal, is finished, they are set up in a full-sized organ for tuning. The "voicer" then works them over, making small adjustments here or calling for the construction of an entire new pipe there, until the set is in perfect tune. Once tuned, they will remain so for 15 to 20 years.
One of the Reuter organs used in the School of Fine Arts, for instance, is nearly 20 years old and has had practically no attention in that time. There are two of these local products installed as practice instruments in Frank Strong hall, rooms 225 and 226. The large organ in Hoch auditorium is not a Reuter. This four-manual console was constructed originally for the Newman theater in Kansas City,
was purchased 23 years ago by the School of Fine Arts, and was subsequently installed in the new auditorium.
The only factory of its kind west of St. Louis and the fourth largest in the world, Reuter is the only organ builder constructing both all-electric and electro-pneumatic actions for the control of air flow into the sounding pipes. In the former, the air valve is attached directly to a hinged teeter-totter sort of mechanism controlled by the magnet, which, in turn, is controlled by pushing on one of the keys. In the electro-pneumatic type, the magnet indirectly controls a balance of air pressures on each side of the valve.
At the factory you may see a miniature organ which is used solely to illustrate the two types of valve control.
With representatives and salesmen in nearly every state, with a small, well-planned advertising campaign, by mailed-in inquiry, but most of all by the fame and reputation of the Reuter Organ, this factory does a steady, humming business.
According to Mr. Selig, an organ is often sold, not by any facts or figures concerning it, nor by the glib tongue of a salesman, but by the composition the demonstrator plays. "The average church committee instructed to buy an organ, would hesitate if we played them a Bach concerto. They are more apt to buy when the demonstrator plays The Old Refrain or one of the familiar church hymns. But the committee of music professors from a University or conservatory will listen to nothing but Bach."
The largest instrument Reuter has ever installed, incidentally, is in the conservatory auditorium at the University of North Carolina.
Despite popular belief otherwise, for every tone there is a pipe; and no pipe may sound more than one tone. When the organist flips one of the small control buttons on the console of an organ he is not letting in more air, or changing the tone of the pipes in any way, but is changing from one set of pipes to another. The tinkling bell sounds, the deep-throated bass rumblings,
Every pipe organ is custom-built. Hence, ever organ that Reuter has sold or expects to sell present a different problem of planning and construction. After the sale is clinched, an engineer blueprints the entire building where the instrument is to be installed. From this planning chart, problems in acoustics, in size of pipes, location of console and other details are worked out. The organ is then built and set up at the factory for a "test run" so to speak. When Mr. Reuter himself gives final approval, the organ is "knocked down" and crated for shipment. Again set up in its final environment, the organ gets a thorough tuning.
Pachacamac Opens Spring Headquarters
Planning to run its spring election campaign in blitzkrieg fashion, and remembering the final success of Hitler's beer-hall putsch—hte Society of Pachacamac opened its spring headquarters Sunday night in Ed Penchard's Beer Barrel Inn under Brick's.
From this campaign headquarters the Pachacamacs will plot
From this campaign he and plan to, as Bob McClure, party campaign manager, said, "Put Pachacamac back in the saddle of student government."
Members of the platform committee include David Watermulder, chairman; Fred Lawson, Bob Thomas, Dick Oliver and Lane Davis.
At the meeting 10 men were initiated into the inner circle of the political party. The new Pachacamacs are Frank Tyler, C. E. Russell, Don Pomeroy, Glenn Perkins, Glenn Gilpin, Wiley Mitchell, Bob Green, Findley Law, Clarke Henry, and Sam Crawford.
Gene Whestone, Pachacamac president, announced the appointment of two new committees, platform and publicity.
Faculty Discusses Architects' Bill With Senate
Members of the publicity committee include John Weatherwax chairman; Harold Haney, Ed Palmer, Chuck Elliott, and Jay Voran
Faculty members of the department of architecture were in Topeka last night attending a meeting of the state affairs committee of the Senate, which was discussing a proposed Architects Registration bill. They were Joseph M. Kellogg, Verner F. Smith, and George M. Beal.
The bill, which has been passed by the House, provides for the registration and licensing of all architects in the state. Such a law is now in effect in 40 states.
the soft, flute-like tones—each type of sound in its range of pitches is made by a different set of pipes. The average organ has 73 keys on each manual, with at least three manuals, and a set of 32 foot pedals. The average organ, such as the one in the Methodist church in Lawrence, a Reuter organ, has about 40 such sets of pipes making a total of from 2,800 to 2,900 pipes in all
The organ which Reuter built for the University of North Carolina is a four-manual instrument, operating some 4,500 pipes. The smallest organ built is a two-manual, designed primarily for the home. Competition is keen in this field, and at least three large companies are building small electric organs along mass production lines. But the pipe organ, according to Mr. Selig, will always be able to hold its own with the electric type. Its tone is more beautiful, and it will last many years longer.
The Box Score . . .
In a normal production year, Reuter turns out from 50 to 60 instruments which range in price from $1,000 to $25,000 or more. The men who work in this factory are highly trainer experts in their own fields. The "voicer" must have perfect pitch, the smelters know the exact alloy which must go into metal for pipes, the cabinet makers turn out some of the most intricate and finest wood work to be seen. This is not a mass production factory. The work here goes slowly—with precision.

ductive during the season, Creighton winning the Missouri Valley Conference Crown, while Iowa State shared first place in the Big Six Conference. Cyclone defense records were best in the latter circuit, with five opponents averaging 35.5 points against Iowa State. Seasoned players such as Capt. Don Fleming and Brownie Jaquay, with Gene Haldeman, junior guard, provide a balance wheel for the Bluejays. Coach Eddie Hickey has used sophomores in prominent roles as Creighton stormed to its first league title since 1932, however. Ed Beisser, sophomore center, ran a neck-and-neck battle with Jaquay for scoring honors, the latter holding a 197 to 195-point edge as the season ended.
Best Cycle Record in History Dick Nolan, sophomore guard was the leading Creighton defense man during the season and scored 141 points.
Creighton won 16 games, losing 6, during its entire season. Nine of the victories and three defeats came in conference play.
Iowa State turned in a record of 15 wins, best in its basketball history, during the past campaign, losing three games within the Big Six
Leading the Cyclone scoring was Gordon Nicholas, senior co-captain, who had 174 points. Nicholas counted 10 points a game in league play.
Also among conference scoring leaders was Al Budolfson, junior co-captain, who placed fifth. Nicholas was second to Howard Engleman of Kansas in conference rankings. Carol Schneider, junior guard, and Dale DeKoster, senior defenseman, were tied for ninth place. Gordon a Defensive Star
Nicholas will take center Tuesday night, with Fred Gordon assigned to one forward post and Budolson to the other. Gordon's careful defense play has been a season's highlight. He is also a senior. Schneider and DeKoster are also starters on Coach Louis Menge's list.
Schneider, who handles defense rebounds with all the advantages of 6 feet, 6 inches' height, will have a big assignment against the Blue-jays. Nicholas and Budolfson will take the bounces when scoring chances are near, on Iowa State attempts.
Winner of the playoffs game will remain in action at Kansas City this week, facing Washington State, Pacific Coast conference winner.

Leland Stowe
Leland Stowe, foreign correspondent for the Chicago Daily News, is one of the few journalists in the world who has had what might be called a romantic career.
When the present European conflict broke out, Stowe's employers decided that he was too old; that a younger man should carry on. Everyone agreed that Stowe had had a brilliant career, but now he was "washed up" and through.
TUESDAY, MARCH 18, 1941.
Everybody agreed but Stowe, himself. He got a job with the Chicago paper and promptly got to work scooping not only the younger men in Europe, but all correspondents over there until he has been acclaimed the greatest correspondent of them all.
Now Leland Stowe is back in America on "vacation." This vacation consists of rushing about the country giving lectures and writing a series of daily articles for his newspaper syndicate.
But perhaps we should be happy that Leland Stowe has not been taking a real vacation. The old idea that we should have no interest in European affairs has been discarded. The fact that our Congress passed the Lease-Lend bill shows where we stand. Whether we fully realize it or not, we are in the war. The President made that clear last Sunday evening in his radio talk.
Stowe's comeback success has been remarkable, but from another viewpoint, quite understandable. This correspondent, with his rich experience in observing and writing, was eminently qualified to continue his work.
Since we are in the struggle would it not be well for us to have some real first-hand knowledge about conditions over there—and the chances of the British for success?
To function properly, the citizens of a democracy should be informed. Leland Stowe can inform us, and he is doing his best to do it.
On this campus it is a simple thing to hear this famous man. You have only to come to the auditorium. It doesn't cost anything more than you have already paid.
Honors Day
A college, like a factory, is known by the products that it gives to the world.
Both are given the basic material to work with. Both have trained men and women who attempt to mould and polish and retouch until the job is ultimately finished.
Too often, we fear, the scholars are not given their due in accordance with the recognition they rightfully have earned. The football and basketball players are publicized in state newspapers; the campus "big shots" are the subjects of fraternity and sorority discussions; but usually the scholar goes on pretty well unsung and unhonored by classmates.
Today we give recognition to scholastic honor groups in the University. These organizations represent the best efforts at Arkansas. By their very existence and being they indicate to the world that superiority and real worth are still values that merit consideration in these days of war and turmoil.
It is well and fitting that we should have Honors Day. The students in college who stand out from the ordinary are usually divided into three major categories: those in general campus activities like publications, politics, and clubs; those in athletics; and finally those who by their hard work and studying rank highest in scholarship.
There are sixteen honor organizations at Arkansas which offer to every student in school the opportunity for membership. From Phi Beta Kappa, in the College of Arts and Sciences, there are others in every college designated for the same purpose.
Mathematics, English, medicine, law, agriculture, education, and many more are all represented in the Honors Day program.
All are ready to take as members the students who have shown a willingness to work, a willingness to study, and a willingness to strive ahead of the common herd.
Hats off to Honors Day honorees.

You Said It
The editor of the Kansan welcomes letters of opinion from students and faculty members to be published in the letters column. If the writer wishes, his name will be withheld, but the Kansan must have the names of all writers of letters—
The eminent British propagandist, Sir Thomas Angell, and his "conditioned" friend, our own Professor Ise, would persuade us that 125,-000,000 Americans are, or will be helpless, before a world of changed and possibly hostile idealologies.
Do they forget, or purposely ignore, the thirteen small colonies that carefully nursed and successfully reared a new born ideology of freedom and equality not only in the face of a hostile world, but in the midst of it. For during the adolescence of the American eaglet, England and other foreign countries were firmly entrenched on this continent.
And they were united in only one thing; their determination to conquer and control the tiny young Republic.
They also tell us that we are, and have been, dependent for our national existence upon the British fleet; that if it fails, we are sunk!
Will Professor Ise name one instance in history when the august British fleet fought for us? The British navy, it pains me to say, has fought against us alwas, beginning before 1776, 1812, and even so late as 1861 when England in pursuance of her centuries-old policy of "divide and rule" aided the South in revolt against the North.
So if the British fleet will even so much as remain neutral in our continued life as a nation, we will be that much the winner.
Another point of difference is in the continuing policy of England to divide-and-rule; whereas Germany's policy seems to be to unite the tiny conquered nations on the continent under German hegemony.
If the gentleman had ever troubled to read "Mein Kampf",to which they refer, they would readily understand that Hitler wants a united Europe to meet the dangers (to him) of traditional English domination.
It is into the current phase of the everlasting "rearrangements" that Sir Norman Angell and Professor Ise, would thrust the youth of this land. Professor Ise is most deeply concerner about the suffering and death in England, yet he would send millions of his own people into the same cauldron.
If the pressure of British propaganda, working hand in glove with Roosevelt, Morgenthau, Cohen, et al, fails to make Congress abdicate—the terms of the bill 1776 are virtual Congressional abdication—there will always be an America.
And I for one am dedicated to that ideal. It it quite secondary in importance, to me, that there shall always be a British Empire.
Respectfully,
A Student.

When the men's and women's rifle teams took a trip to Boonville, Mo., last weekend, they were accompanied by renowned baby-judgers Sergeant William Kollender and Lieutenant Wray Shockley, who were called to act as judges at a theater contest to pick Miss Boonville and Mr. Boonville. All entrants were under six years of age. Lieutenant Shockley, who coaches students to shoot sharp, turned out to be sharp himself on picking little cuties.

To Show Movies In Fraser Theatre
Three pictures, dealing with community planning, cancer research and crime prevention, will be present at 3:30 and 7:30 o'clock on Thursday in Fraser theater under the auspices of the Forums Board.
"The City," contrasts social chaos of the planless city and the human advantages of the small planned community. It was featured in one of the World Fair exhibits in New York.
The second film is "Choose To Live," a two-reel dissertation on cancer. It shows that early diagnosis often leads to cure. The symptomatology of the disease is portrayed, and cancer research is depicted.
Atom smashing equipment is brought into the film in connection with the radioactive elements used for treatment of the disease. Purification of Radon by means of mercury and X-ray and radium treatments are shown.
"Juvenile Delinquency," depicts the life history of a boy, showing the successive stages of crime from petty larceny to murder. Remedies for the conditions are suggested. It was produced by March of Time and sponsored by the National Probation association for the prevention of crime.

Other speakers and entertainers were Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary, Dr. H. L.

DEATH TAKES---student who knew her loved her deeply and gained much from her 'teaching."
Born in 1870 in Linn county, Miss Corbin attended public schools in that county until she entered the University in 1889. After being graduated in 1893, she received her Ph.D. from Yale and spent some time studying at the University of Berlin and the University of Wisconsin.
Began Here in 1902
She began teaching here in 1902, was made assistant professor of German in 1910, associate professor in 1911, and professor in 1920.
Miss Corbin's chief interest was in development of the student's individuality. She believed that the object of student government is to develop good citizenship and regarded it as indispensable.
Because of her deep interest in individuals, Miss Corbin was appointed dean of women from 1918 to 1921. After 1921, she served as student adviser in the office of the dean of the College.
Helped Obtain Funds
Through Miss Corbin's activity, committees to obtain funds for dormitories for Kansas state schools were organized in New York, Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, St. Louis, and Ann Arbor, Mich.
As a result of a conference with
NICE GIRL?
THE CHILDREN'S WEEKLY
Gov. Henry J. Allen in 1920, Miss Corbin and four other deans of women drafted a bill, which was presented to the legislature and won an appropriation of $500,000, of which $150,000 contributed to the building of Corbin hall. They later obtained $25,000 for furnishings.
Deanna Durbin tries to show up her boy friends, Franchot Tone and Robert Stack — But showed up her self at 5 a.m. Deanna kicks over the traces in "Nice Girls" now showing at the Granada!
Miss Corbin was active in the women's suffrage campaign in 1912. She was appointed chairman of the statewide committee on halls of residence in 1920, was first president of the Kansas Dinner club, an organization of women teachers; was president of the Kansas Council of Women, which includes all present and past presidents of statewide organizations of women; has been chairman of a committee in the Kansas League of Voters; has been a member of the American Association of University Women; and with Dr. Florence B. Sherbon, professor of home economics, was a member of the executive committee on the Kansas Children's Code Commission.
Active in Suffrage Campaign
LELAND STOWE---speaker: "We were thoroughly delighted with Mr. Stowe, and are sorry that we could not have listened to him for several hours more. What a fund of information he has, and what a thoroughly delightful platform appeal."
She resigned from the faculty in 1933 because of ill health.

Leland Stowe Will Speak Tonight In Hoch To Discuss World Situation
Leland Stowe, well known foreign correspondent for the Chicago Daily News, will present his view of the war picture at 8:20 tonight in Hoch auditorium.
A.
Stowe is expected to give a brighter picture of the world situation than was given last week by Julien Bryan who seemed to feel that Hitler had the upper hand. Bryan then predicted that Stowe would have a much different outlook. "He doesn't think the situation is as dangerous or bad as I do." Bryan said.
Prediction Seems True
This prediction seems true. In a recent article printed in the Kansas City Star on Feb. 28, Stowe made these statements:
"In this colossal and fateful gamble, the British Isles represent
LELAND STOWE
the jackpot and Hitler stands to lose everything he has conquered if he fails to take them. He failed for the first time in September.
"There can be no doubt that he must deal Britain a mortal blow within a few months or Nazi-ism will be fighting a defensive battle all over Europe. If Hitler fails against Britain or sidesteps Britain between now and August he will know all too well that he has lost the war.
. . . a brighter picture?
"He has piled up amazing victories because he has always been able to choose when and where to strike next. Now he is becoming straight-jacketed by circumstance and geography. You may logically question whether this fact may not emerge before many months as the
'Amazing Victories'
turning point of the second World War."
Whether Stowe has changed his opinion in view of recent developments in Europe will be seen in his lecture tonight when he speaks on "Hitler Over Europe."
Students will be admitted on the presentation of activity books.
At Sigma Delta Chi
Stowe is also scheduled for another address when he speaks to members of Sigma Delta Chi, men's honorary journalism fraternity at a special dinner meeting tonight at 6:30 in the Old English room of the Memorial Union building.
Stowe will arrive in Lawrence at 6 o'clock tonight and will leave at 10 o'clock to continue his lecture tour.
Dandelion Diggers to Talk Tactics Today
Chancellor Malott, Dr. F. C. Allen, Bill Farmer, Sergeant William Kollender, and Charles Wright, fine arts senior, will speak at a meeting of the committee in charge of the Dandelion Day activities, to be held at 4:30 o'clock this afternoon in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building.
Wright, who is in charge of Dandelion Day activities has announced the names of the captains who will command the teams of 20 men and 10 women, which will banish the yellow menace from the Campus. The captains are:
Betty Van Deventer, O'Thene Huff, Mary Lou Randall, Jean Steele, Jeanne Stouffer, Charlotte Steel, Mary Elizabeth Janes, Betty Kimble, Winifred Hill, Ruth Spencer, Barbara Koch, Dorothy Gear, Beth Kirby, Jean Bailey, Nancy Carey, Betty Jehess, Lois Worrell, Elizabeth Curry, Dorothy Wowe, Beatrice Hagedorn, Margaret Learned, Myra Hurd, Alta Bingham, Betsy Dodge, Lillian Fisher, Jean Klussman, Helen Edlin, Joan Taggart, Virginia Ford, NadineHunt.

Plan Tribute In Music For C.S. Skilton
A memorial tribute in music to Charles Sanford Skilton, who died last week after serving on the University fine arts faculty for 38 years, will be sponsored by the Lawrence Music club in Hoch auditorium at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon.
The program, made up entirely of Skilton's compositions, will be dedicated to the composer, one of the most distinguished musicians Kansas has ever had.
Mrs. Maurice W. Clarkson, chairman of the clubs program committee, and Mrs. Clifton C. Calvin, former president of the club, planned the program last fall, conferring with Skilton to construct the program as he desired it. Debated Cancelling Program
On Skilton's death last week, the cancelling of the program was debated. After consideration it was decided to hold the concert.
The program will be given by members of the fine arts music faculty, assisted by Marie Wilkins, soprano, and Powell Weaver, well-known organist of Kansas City, Mo., a chorus of young women enrolled in the University A Cappella Choir and the University Symphony Orchestra, which will open the program with three orchestral selections under Director Karl Kuersteiner.

'Hawker' to Conduct Annual Search For Queen
From now until the last number of the Jayhawker is issued, candidates from nine sororities and three halls will send up fervent prayers and benegactions for an unknown person upon whom will rest the decision of who will be the 1941 Jayhawker beauty queen.
Each organized house will submit any number of candidates as their choices for the queenship. Out of all those turned in at the Jayhawker office, 15 will be asked to have photographs taken
Will Name Prom Band Soon; Set Date For March 28
Although still cloaking the name of the band to play at the Junior Prom in the dark generalization of "we haven't received official confirmation yet," Fred Littooy, varsity dance manager, today said definitely that the date of the dance had been set for March 28.
For the past several weeks Litooy has been hard at work and promises that the band will be a good one. The name of the band will be available some time late this week as soon as the dance manager receives definite word from the band's bookers.
WEATHER
Partly cloudy and colder.
Pharmacy Group in Wichita For Kansas Convention
All 15 pictures will be sent to an unknown authority on physiognomical merits, who will be the final judge. The identity of the queen will be kept a secret until the day the Jayhawker is published. Even the queen will not know until that day. The judge will also pick four others besides the queen, in order of what he considers to be their respective merits.
Members of the senior pharmacy class, J. Allen Reese, dean of the School of Pharmacy, and Dr. L. L. Boughton, professor of pharmacy, left yesterday to attend the annual convention of the Kansas Pharmaceutical association in Wichita. The group will return to the campus Thursday.

Alberta Corbin Helped Improve Girls' Housing
Funeral services for Alberta Corbin '71, former dean of women and professor of German, will be held at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon at the Unitarian church.
Miss Corbin helped establish cooperative houses for girls before Corbin, Watkins, or Miller halls existed.

The success in the management of these houses led to building ciety, which was later taken of Watkins hall.

Wind Blows Glee Club To Jackrabbit Country
Russell, March 18—(Special to the Kansan)—Rushed in from Russell by special carrier (Otto Kiehl) . . The Men's Glee club gave another smashing performance this evening. The dents are plainly visible in the floor of the stage, caused by the boys in the skit, Lee Huddleston, "Teepee" Nelson, Bud McDonald, and Warren Williams putting a little too much enthusiasm into a
The wind blows all the time out here. If prosperity were around the corner, it would blow away. When you walk out from behind a building the wind blows your hat off, if your not wearing a hat, it blows your head off.
Huddleston Loses Race
Lee Huddleston walked out of the high school building this afternoon without a good secure grip on the address slip of the place where he is staying. The paper took out down the street with Lee and a Boy Scout in hot pursuit. The Boy Scout won by a long block. He went clear past the paper and caught it when it came along. The boys out here can run up behind a jackrabbit and catch him by the ears.
Farmers out here use limestone fence posts. As we came out from Salina this morning over the high, rolling plains, we could see for miles in all directions, rows of six-inch square stone posts. Russellites say the posts are set about three feet in the ground and weigh about four hundred and fifty pounds.
The Russell Rotary club sponsored the performance tonight, which was free to the public. The Glee Club met with the Rotarians this noon, ate a lot of good ham
and sang a couple of members. Yours truly stepped up and got himself introduced by virtue of himself introduced around by virtue of membership in the Rotary club Hold Jam Session
The Club sang this afternoon for a high school assembly. The school here has a grand building. A public address system connects every room with the principal's office. The auditorium is finished in native stone, has ceiling high windows with venetian blinds and deep burgundy drapes, on each side of the stage hangs a gorgeous Kansas landscape by Sandzen.
Some of the boys about broke up school with an off-key jam session. Lee Huddleston and "Teepee" Nelson on two sour trumpets, Bill McIntire and Robert Gale on the snares, Vic Miller on the bass hatter, John Naff on the bull fiddle, Otto Kiehl on the bass drum, and Bob Jenkins on the piano beat it out not good, but loud. Then the janitor aired the place out and the show went on.
Otto Kiehl leaves tonight for Kansas City for an interview and will not make the rest of the trip with the club. His place in the quartet will be filled by John Naff. Tomcrow the club sings at Ellis, Wakeeney, and tomorrow night sings and stays at Garden City.

Shoemaker, Engel To Give Speeches At Language Meet
Under the auspices of the same committee, the University extension division has arranged a series of broadcasts on vocational subjects over station KFKU every Friday afternoon from March 21 to May 30 inclusive.
W. H. Shoemaker, chairman of the department of romance languages, and E. F. Engel, professor of German, will appear on the program of the annual meeting of the Kansas Modern Language association to be held at Emporia State Teachers College March 29.
While the broadcasts are primarily intended to reach high school students planning to attend college next year, much of the material covered by the broadcasts will be of assistance to University students who have not yet selected their major subject.
Shoemaker will speak on "The Multiplicity of Aims in Modern Language Teaching." Engel's subject will be "Our Pedagogical Dilemma and the Way Out."
R. G. Mahieu, associate professor of romance languages and Miss Maude Elliott, assistant professor of romance languages, are members of the nominating committee for the association, and Miss May Gardner, professor of romance languages, is a member of the committee on evaluation of high school credits.

Although Howard Engleman was held to eight points, Kansas City's College of Commerce bowled over the Des Moines Coalers, 52-43, last night to advance to the third round of the National A. A. U. basketball tournament in Denver.
Spencer Self, with 20 points, led the Commerce attack, but Engleman was valuable as a "feeder." Dick Harp, another ex-Jayhawker, hit eight points from his guard position, and John Kline also saw service in the game although he did not break into the tally column.
Engleman has averaged 13.5 points in two tournament games, while Harp has a 8.5 mark.

Phi Gams Nip Newmans, 31 -25 To Cop Cage Crown Finalists Dominate Intramural All-Stars
sports AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
Basketball, kingpin of the winter sport's season, will make its final Midwestern fling on two fronts this weekend before bowing out of the picture until another year.
For come next Saturday night there will be but one important cage contest remaining to be played in the midlands; that the all-important N. C. A. A. finals to crown the king of collegiate basketball in Kansas City's Municipal auditorium, March 29.
Opening this afternoon in Emporia was the first annual Class AA state high school basketball tournament which will attract a select field of 16 clubs from all corners of Kansas.
On a two night stand in Kansas City Friday and Saturday will be the attractive Western N. C. A. A. playoffs which will bring together Washington State, champion of the Pacific slope; Arkansas, undefeated in Southwest conference play; Wyoming, Big Seven king, and Creighton which last night downed Iowa State, 57-48 to gain the Fifth District representativeness
Only clubs conceded a chance to carry off the high school bunting are Newton, new Ark Valley champ; El Dorado, only club to defeat the Railroaders this year; Hutchinson, which has extended the champions three times during this season, and Wyandotte, the powerful free-lance quintet which has swept aside almost everything in its path.
Bailey Rickett's smooth Parsons five, Southeast loop titlist, might shake sensational Dale Hall loose for an upset or two and Ark City, long a stronghold of not-potch bas-

Tony Coffin A Standout In Defeat
Phi Gamma Delta captured the intramural basketball championship for the second consecutive year, by defeating Newman I 31 to 25 in the last night's final game of the playoff series. In winning from the Newman's last night the Phi Gams made it two straight in the two out of three finals as the Newman's fell before the lads in purple Monday night 46 to 38.
A year ago, four of the five PS1 Gam's who took part in this year's playoffs, downed Alpha Kappa Psi in two games, 30 to 29 and 36-32, in the finals. The season record of the twice-crowned champs is identical to last year. Both years continued for more five.

M.S.C. Considers One-Hour Course In Orientation
The tentative plan for a one hour orientation course for entering freshmen moved closer to becoming a reality at the meeting of the Men's Student Council in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building Monday night.
Bill Farmer, president of the Council, reported favorable comment by University authorities on the orientation course, which is part of a larger plan that includes the establishment of a joint student-faculty committee to hear complaints on present courses, criticisms of faculty actions, and agitation for new courses.
In discussing the proposed orientation plan, Farmer said, "This credit hour course would be invaluable to all freshmen and would do much to promote a more basic understanding of what the University offers. It would help create better relations and vitiate criticism between the faculty and the students."
The committee appointed to study the possibilities of such a course presented a tentative outline of topics and lecturers, and it was decided to recommend the plan to the University Senate.
A motion to establish a lost and found bureau, probably to be located in the book exchange, was passed and referred to the W.S.G.A. for further action.
Eugene Ricketts reported that Willis Fankhauser and Marion Haynes have been declared eligible to keep their seats on the Council, but there are two other members whose eligibility is still undetermined.
Ricketts, in charge of the committee on constitutional revision, said that he has collected all bills passed by the Council during the last two years and could make a definite report on his findings at the next meeting. He mentioned that Bill 20, regarding the apportionment of the activity fee, has been made meaningless by $v$ recent action of the Board of Regents changing the amount and distribution of this fee. Because of this a motion was passed to revise Bill 20 and all other bills superseded by University action.
The Council discussed plans for participation in the University High School Day, Dandelion Day, and the tree planting ceremony for the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration. Paul Yankey, was placed in charge of the Council's contribution to the Dandelion Day carnival, and $10 was appropriated for this purpose.
ketball, could conceivably usurp its way into the semifinals, but both is unlikely.
AS WE SEE IT---hand goal shooting. Johnny Dewell, brother of S. M. U.'s Billy, is a better-than-average forward with Don Toevs, another regular of last year, at the other front line slot. All four men were on a club good enough last year to cop third place in the state meet.
(continued from page four) As usual Newton will present a five cylindered basketball machine, this year hubbed by two senior stars, guard Jimmy Nebergall and center Bill McCloud, brother of the famed Leason, Big Seven scoring king.
Nebergall was voted as the most valuable player in the Ark Valley league this winter while the burly McCloud gained fame thru plenty of high class rebounding and left-
Bluejays Sweep Over Iowa State
Creighton's fast-breaking Bluejays sped past Iowa State 57-48 last night in Kansas City's Auditorium court to qualify as representative from the fifth district in the National Collegiate Athletic association western finals.
Creighton meets Washington State, Pacific Coast champion, at Kansas City Friday night while Wyoming, Big Seven title holder, faces Arkansas the same evening. The winners of these two games play Saturday night to determine the champion of the western half of the United States. March 29, the western champion will meet the eastern winner in Kansas City for the national title.
Dale DeKoster, swarthy little Cyclone guard, scored 18 points for high point honors, while Ed Beisser, Bluejay sophomore, followed with 16 tallies.
Creighton opened with a rush, and at one time in the first half owned an 18-7 lead, but the Cyclones whittled the margin to 26-21 by half time.
DeKoster and Gordon Nicholas tied the score at 26-all early in the second period, and a fierce dogfight ensured for the next few minutes, with neither team able to gain a commanding lead.
Then Dick Nolan, former Ward High School cager, fired in five quick field goals, to give Creighton a 48-35 edge. From that time on, the Creighton subs managed to match Iowa State's baskets and were still clicking as the final gun sounded.
Hutchinson will place their main hope in big Guy Mitchell, who captured the scoring championship of the Valley this year. Walt Quiring and Jim Gear are others who are capable of A-1 performances.
Spurring an El Dorado Bulldog to the title will rest for the most part on the shoulders of flashy Harold McSpadden, brother of Larry, who was named captain of this year's all-Valley selection. Barr, Swengle and Shank, three big boys, will do the rebounding and ball handling.
The task of shattering Ark Valley tournament domination will fall to Wyandotte, ever a menacing threat for the championship. This year the scarlet-clad Bulldogs will depend upon a pair of high-scoring forwards instead of a guard of the Bill Hahn or Ray Evans caliber to lead them to the fore. The lads are Mike Vargon and Kenny Thompson, both of whom should rank near the top of the heap when the tournament honor roll is read Saturday night. The powerful dogs have slaughtered their last three opponents Olathe, Lawrence, and Shawnee-Mission by scores of 33-6, 30-16, and 41-14, and can conceivably be seen in the finals.
Favored in what should be a torrid N. C. A. A. affair will be Arkansas' giant Razorbacks. Only team to defeat the Porkers this year has been the equally towering Phillips 66 outfit, defending National A. A. U. champions who accomplished the feat successfully twice in three
games. The Southerners feature in Johnny Adams a forward hot enough to carry off the conference scoring crown and will trot out a lineup averaging six feet four inches in height.
If the Pigs should slip Washington State is considered next most likely to represent the western half against the east March 29.
The Cougars boast two all-Coast selections in Paul Lindeman, six-foot seven-inch pivot, and Ray Sundquist, senior guard. Dale Gentry, a hard-driving sentinel, and Vern Butts, a forward, were rated good enough for second team berths.
The huskies from Pullman gained the west coast representative post by handing brilliant Stanford two consecutive defeats in the annual North-South division playoffs last weekend.
Not to be underrated when the choice foursome opens fires in K. C. are Creighton's incredible Blue-jays, one of the fastest breaking teams in the country.
In forwards Brownie Jaquay and captain Don Fleming and center Ed Beisser, the Jays have a scoring machine gun, which seldom fails to total at least 45 points. Beisser also is considered one of the top-notch rebounders of the Midwest.
Add to this trio Dick Nolan, a sensational guard, and Haldeman, a steady-playing running mate, and you may have an upset-bound aggregation.
Wyoming is a virtually unknown quantity, but the fact that the Cowboys were good enough to wave their brown and yellow colors over Frosty Cox's Colorado Buffaloes all season is mute warning in itself.
FINALISTS DOMINATE---was the finest defensive guard in intramurals, besides backboning a good Newman I team. Coffin held Hyer, Sigma Chi 10-point man to two free throws, and in the second game of the finals blanketed Healy completely.
The eastern representative, which also will be crowned Saturday in Madison, Wisconsin, will be chosen from Wisconsin, Big Ten champ, Dartmouth, Ivy League master; North Carolina, winners of the Southeastern loop, and Pittsburgh.
(continued from page four) his best performances against the Newman's. McSpadden also topped the scorers in Division II with an average of 12.9 per game. Fournier, scoring champion of Division III with an average of 14.5, was equally impressive in the playoffs.
Second team posts went to the sparkplug of the Beta's attack, Bill Geiger, and to Ed Vandaveer, Fournier's running mate on the Newmma club. Consistency in allaround play for the whole season gave Geiger and Vandaveer the forward berths over Hambric, Phi Gam second team selection in '40, Maiden of Newman II, Hyer of Sigma Chi, and Hodge, Phi Psi.
Van Hartman, Sigma Chi, finished ahead of Shane, Hellhound; Ulrich, Teke; and Altman, Beta, in the all-star ratings due to exceptional team play and "clutch" scoring ability.
The captaincy and pivot post goes to versatile Chain Healy who performed at all positions with equal brilliance. Healy, who shared the co-captaincy of last year's all-star with Harold Johnson, had no equal this season. Averaging better than 11 points in 14 contests, Healy also rated as intramurals No. 1 rebounder, a fine floor man, and excellent on defense.
Back-line standouts are numerous, yet choosing the first team guards, Tony Coffin, Newman I, and Jim Sealey, Phi Psi, was easy as both stood head and shoulders above their nearest rivals. Coffin
No Question About Guards
Sealey, the Phi Psi one-man gang, was a top-notcher on a fair ball club. A good rebounder and crack long shot artist. Seeley had no peer in ball-handling. Harold Long, defensive star and ace passer of the Phi Gam's, teams with Walt Sheridan, the Sig Alpha's high scorer, at the second team posts. Closest competitors were Engle, Pi K.A.; Pierce, Beta; Hinshaw, Phi Gam; and M. Vandaveer, Newman I.
PHI GAMS NIP---the Fiji's finished with 13 wins and one loss, a total of 26 victories in the last 28 games.
Roscoe Hambric, Phi Gam, opened the scoring by hitting a setup in the first 10 seconds of play. Fournier, Newman, gathered a free toss, followed by teammate Coffin's long one-hander to move ahead 3 to 2. Fiji's McSpadden and Hinshaw regained the lead with short shots but the Vandaveers, Ed and Marv, gathered five points between them as the first quarter ended with Newman in front 8 to 6.
Newman's Surge Ahead
Hambric and Long of the defending champs, rallied with two beautiful one-handers only to have Fournier knot the score at 10-all with a tip-in. Long put the Phi Gam's ahead with another one-handed shot, with Hinshaw adding a charity toss. Fournier swished a post shot and McSpadden tossed a pair of free throws to bring the halftime score of 15 to 12 in the Phi Gam's favor.
Olson, Fiji sub, opened the second half with a free throw, only to have the Newman's offset it with a five point scoring spurt which put them in front, 17 to 16. Hinshaw, one of the outstanding men of the

A free toss by Hinshaw, followed by a setup by McSpadden put the Fijis ahead by two points. Coffin, Newman guard, sank a two-handed push shot to tie the count at 21-all. The purple scourge then proceeded to go on one of their famous scoring sprees with Hambric, McSpadden, and then Hambric again, sinking goals in rapid succession. Coffin the Standout
Coffin the Standout
Newman I, down but not out, produced their final bid of the game, with Fournier and Ed Vandaveer tallying goals to bring the score to 27-25. However, Long and Hinshaw came back with goals to cinch the Fiji's their second straight intramural cage title.
Top laurels of the game should go to Tony Coffin, the Newman's great guard, who turned in the top defensive performance of the year by holding Phi Gam's Chain Healy scoreless. Up until last night's goose eggs, Healy had never failed, in 13 contests to score more than eight points.
Other game stars were Long and Hambric, Phi Gam's, and the Vandaveer brothers, Ed and Marv, for the Newman's.
A Division Playoff
In a division title playoff, Phi Psi earned the right to meet the Sig Alph's for the division I cup by winning easily from Delta Chi 40 to 20. Bill Hodge and Jim Sealey called the Phi Psi scoring with 12 and 9 points respectively. The Sig Alph-Phi Psi battle is scheduled to take place Thursday night. Earlier in the season, the Phi Psi's downed the Sig Alph's 21 to 17.

HURRAY FOR DANDELIONS!
One of the brightest ideas that has been hatched in recent months on the campus is the new "dandelion day."
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 19, 1941.
The new holiday is a substitute for the old "hobo day," which has become obsolete. This new day of dandelions is just what the doctor ordered. The holiday will occur in the middle of the spring fever period and should be a welcome rest for book-weary students.
But a day in the open is not all that this holiday will afford. In the afternoon a carnival will be in full swing, featuring all the popular games of chance, bingo, dart throwing, etc. Of course, plenty of concessions will probably be open for business.
A street dance will be the main attraction at night. For real, honest-to-goodness hilarity, nothing beats a good street dance. Everybody gets his shoes full of sawdust—if he doesn't wear them right off his feet—but nobody minds that when he is dancing.
Above all this, something more important can be gained by a big all-University fiesta. It can draw the students and faculty closer together; it can draw the students into a tighter body; it can instill a love of the old school into more students than have it now. This University lacks functions in which the student body, as a group, can participate. Maybe this is just the affair we need.
The proposal is fine. Now all we need is to have everybody to get behind it. When a celebration like this flops, it falls harder and flatter than anything else. When it goes over big, nothing could be grander.
"Why not feed the unfortunate victims in the former democracies of Europe?" This is a hotly contested question in the world today. Sides have been taken by influential groups who are waging a sharply contested battle.
FOODSTUFFS FOR EUROPE?
Recently a bulletin was issued by the National Committee on Food for the Small Democracies. In it was presented statements of the British attitude toward relief in Belgium and France during the First World War and its plan of operation which they feel will be successful today.
This plan was to form a Commission for Relief which would be a neutral body and would function under agreements—
(1) With Britain, providing for ships to pass the blockade.
(2) With the Germans, providing that the German army would not seize imported food stuffs.
(3) With both governments, providing for American supervision of the entire food supply as a guarantee that it would reach only the sufferers.
(4) With both governments, providing freedom of ships from any attack and the free movement of personnel.
On the surface, this appears to be a good plan. In 1916-17 it functioned smoothly under Herbert Hoover's supervision. But times have changed. Again we have the German army overrunning Europe, but a new leader is at the helm—a leader who has proved that his word both oral and written is worthless by breaking every promise and agreement and who has dealt many underhanded blows in an effort to gain power.
It is plausible that Hitler will do as Wilhelm did in the last war and allow the people of the conquered countries to have the food? He says that it is our duty to feed them, but will be guarantee to keep hands off? and even if he does, will Britain believe him and consent to let the food pass through its blockade?
Reports from England last week indicate a definite trend against it is developing. The English officials feel that Hitler cannot be trusted even on this. Recently, a government official stated that the people of Europe must survive on their own during the winter. This seems to squelch all thoughts of their cooperation in the plan.

The Lambert's caller tells Bill who is to be a member of the junior class at Liberty Memorial High school, how he can get some new equipment from the radio supply shop for his radio set, that's now in the making. At least one of the coupons will be used by daughter Julia. If she beats the rest of the family to it, she will get the attractive printed stationery offered by a printing shop.
Statistics Filed
When the young man returns to the Chamber of Commerce office, he is a friend of the Lambert family. He knows that "Jon" Lambert is an economics professor in the University, that the Lambert children are going to spend more time in Julia's darkroom developing pictures or trying to contact hams with Bill's radio set than at any other home amusements.
All this information will be placed on file to be used by businessmen, civic organizations, clubs and churches who are interested in

meeting and knowing the Lambert. On the first of each month, mimeographed lists containing the names of all new residents, their addresses, the number in the family, the occupations of the working members, and their former locations are sent to the 52 merchants who sponsor the Courtesy program.. Each of these merchants pays 10 cents for each family who, like the Lambert's received the coupon book during the past month. This small fee is used to cover clerical and calling expenses.
Plan Copyrighted
Instigated and copyrighted by Mrs. Terry Gaskill in 1933, the Courtesy Plan has proved a success according to participating merchants and newcomers to the city.
"It brings greater returns than any other adverising I do," comments one of the most enthusiastic promoters of the plan. He finds that although only one-third of the coupons are brought to his store, almost every bearer buys something while he is there the first time or returns at a later date. This business man offers the printed stationery, a gift which necessitates two calls by the new resident.
Makes Customers
"We've made some good friends and steady customers of persons who bought their first loaf of our bread with one of the coupons," states the leal baker who has used the plan for five years. He finds that 90 per cent of the coupon hold-

ROCK CHALK TALK
By HEIDI VIETS
After reading an article about a woman who lost 30 pounds in 45 days by sticking to a diet of 20 apples a day with apple cider for a chaser, Margaret Meek set out to try it. Current reports question whether the abundance of apples will keep the doctor away until 1980 or bring him right away.
Betty West entertains her date by bringing along a stray mongrel pup she is mothering. At least, that's what she did the other night.
Typical college drama:
Scene II. Same. They decide to toss a coin to settle the argument. Heads, movies; tails, study.
Scene I: 1041 Tennessee. Eldred Jones begs Jimmy Draper to go to the movies with him. Jimmy insists on studying.
Scene III: Same. Tails wins, they set out to study, but Jimmy spends all afternoon heckling Eldree for losing the toss. Nothing is gained by anybody.

Darrell Wood is still having trouble with the Jayhawk Co-op Model T. Sunday night when he was on a date it froze upand refused to run. He sent his date home in a taxi and doctored the car until midnight, finally resorting to external force to get it home.

This University is not the only one to take Nature to heart. Dandelion day may be an innovation, but other schools have their eccentricities, too. In Baton Rouge students of Louisiana State University have set up a trust fud for "Oscar the Pooh," a fox terrion pup who was run over by a motorist and hobbled to the arms of an understanding coed.
Kay Warren Thompson, Rock Chalk Co-op, received a post card from Des Moines the other day. All it said was "Lost, Strayed, or Stolen." He can't answer because he doesn't know which he is.

Extend Tree Planting Plan
By CHARLES PEARSON The Alumni office this week has been sending out blank forms to University alumni in towns all over Kansas and other states in an effort to extend the scope of the tree planting projects to be held in connection with the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration.
Each blank was accompanied by a news story for the local paper, and a bulletin or pamphlet giving details of the prescribed ceremony and describing the marker which will be sent out by the University to all communities where the tree planting ceremonies are held. For Plantings on Campus
Out-of-state alumni are asked to send funds for plantings on the
campus. This is in line with the University's present campus beautification campaign, in which class and group gifts are sought for the planting of trees, shrubs, and flowers.
Information sent out by the Alumni office tells what kind of trees are particularly suited to soil and climate conditions in each part of the state, and under what conditions certain trees respond best.
Ratner Endorses Project
Governor Payne Ratner has endorsed the project. "Through this plan opportunities are provided for each community to assist with the tree culture we need, and at the same time attention is called to one
of our great educational institutions," he said.
Guy D. Josserand, Pratt, director of the State Forestry, Fish and Game Commission, has also approved the project and urges that each alumnus plant a tree or clump of trees where it can do double duty, providing cover and food for wild life as well as commemorating the Seventy-fifth Anniversary.
These projects, which include the planting of trees and writing of essays by students in high schools, are scheduled to take place on Arbor Day, March 28, but if arrangements cannot be completed in that short time a celebration at a later date is acceptable, Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary, said today.

Carolyn Humphrey, Kansas City, Mo., a University student last year, was a Sunday visitor on the campus.
Prof. R. Q. Brewster, chairman of the chemistry department, and several assistant instructors of chemistry attended the meeting of the Kansas City section of the American Chemical Society at Rockhurst College last week. The principal speaker was D. B. Keyes, professor of chemical engineering and director of research at the University of Illinois experiment station.
Donald Nigg, sophomore engineer, and Bob Miller, first year law student, spent the weekend at the Nigg home in Whitewater.
Ann Murray, fine arts junior, has been confined to Watkins Memorial hospital during the past week.
Tau Kappa Epsilon, newest of the Greek brotherhoods on the Hill, has decided to remain neutral in the election this spring. At a meeting Monday night the Tekes decided
not to line themselves with either party but to let each man vote as he pleases.
Stewart Earhart, senior engineer, entered Watkins Memorial hospital Saturday to be treated for an attack of flu.
John Burton, business junior, has withdrawn from school and enrolled in the navy air corps. He will leave tomorrow to begin his training.

The war is beginning to affect Kansas at last. Diplomas which are made of English sheepskin and should have been distributed to summer school and fall semester graduates long ago, are just now being sent out. The sheepskins were held up because of the war, James K. Hitt, assistant registrar, said today.

During each of two 30-day periods extending from Aug. 15 to Sept. 15 and from Jan. 15 to Feb. 15, 20 new families move to Lawrence. The influx of new families drops to approximately 11 or 12 for each of the remaining periods during the year. Newcomers Approve
If the Lamberts fall into agreement with a large percentage of Lawrence newcomers since the Courtesay Plan has been used, they will have "something to write home about." Typically representing this group, Mrs. W. T. Douce said, "We felt from the day we arrived here, that Lawrence people wanted us. And everyone enjoys feeling wanted in the community in which he lived."

That was the rallying cry of the 100 dandelion team captains who met with Commander-in-chief Charles Wright, fine arts junior, in the Memorial Union building yesterday afternoon.
Two Captains on Each Team
Wright, who has absolute command of the student army on Dandelion Day (tentatively scheduled for April 2), called his captains together to give them a few pointers on how to select teams and to let them hear pep talks given by Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen and Chancellor Deane W. Malott.

If you happened to wander into the office of Henry Werner, adviser of men, Tuesday morning, you would have been surprised to have the adviser take you by the arm and face you toward a row of pictures lined along the wall. The pictures were water colors painted by members of the department of painting and design.
Russell Plots Map of Campus
Estimating that 18,750,000 dandelions will be destroyed by students in their drive, F. A. Russell, professor of civil engineering, today pointed out that this figure must not be confused with the national debt.
Russell has drawn up a map of the campus, in which the main part is divided into 75 individual districts. The area covered amounts to 42.3 square acres, and on an average amounts to 25,000 square feet per plot. Russell has estimated 10 dandelions per square foot, or 250,-000 dandelions in each district.

Must Get Funds To Stage Entrada
The Coronado Entrada will appear at the University if, and only if, members of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce are able to raise the necessary $4,200 to underwrite it.
A committee of 41 members has been appointed to try to raise the amount by subscription from local business men, and Fritz Meyn has accepted the general chairmanship of a committee to prepare for the staging of the show, which will be held in the Memorial stadium June 4, 5, and 6—if the money can be obtained
The show, to be held in connection with the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration would be presented on a stage which would cover the football field, and upon which about 500 local persons would enact the search for Coronado for the fabulous golden city of Quivera.
J. H. Cargill, who will produce the pageant, has been in charge of the Entrada during the last season and continued to work there.

If you see a tall boy moving about the campus in the rhythm of a conga dance in the next few days—think nothing of it.
It will only be Fred Robertson, president of the I.S.A., practicing up for the organization's varsity dance Friday night.
Today "Lazonga" Robertson announced that the dance is to be called "Conga Capers," and will feature several conga pieces for the dancers to try their hand at (or to try whatever is customary in a conga.) The varsity will be from 9-12 p.m. in the ballroom of the Memorial Union building.
All I.S.A. members may attend free of charge, while admittance to non-I.S.A. members will be 50 cents per person.
Clayton Harbur and his band will play for the dance.
The next issue of the I.S.A.'s offcial bi-weekly newspaper will be issued next Tuesday Robertson said today. The paper will be available to I.S.A. members at the organization's office in Frank Strong hall.

Physical Science Conference Will Draw 300
Chemistry and physics will be uppermost in the minds of conference members when they register at 9 o'clock in Fraser hall, with two roundtable discussions by high school teachers, a panel discussion and individual lectures by University instructors, plus many laboratory demonstrations and exhibits by the chemistry and physics departments at hand.
Two roundtable discussions are scheduled on the program, one for chemistry and one for physics. University students may recall high school days with the recognition of former high school instructors' names. High school teachers participating in the chemistry roundtable are John Michener, East High, Wichita; R. F. Rowland, Marysville; Ashley Elb1, Wyandotte, Kansas City; H. P. Hawry, Altamont; and R. W.

Must Give All For Freedom, Stowe Warns
By NADINE HUNT
"You can't buy freedom over a bargain counter, you can't buy it with dollars, you've got to give yourself!"
Thus Leland Stowe, noted Chicago Daily News foreign correspondent, described the fight for freedom against Hitler going on in Europe today when he spoke on the lecture series last night in Hoch auditorium.
A large audience heard the veteran correspondent declare that the people of America must learn to give everything just as the people of Europe have learned it. Cites Norwegians, Greeks
Stowe told of the Norwegians who are still fighting in the air and on the sea although they haven't a country of their own. He pictured the Greeks at the beginning of the war, the Greeks in whom no one believed but themselves, the Greeks who pushed back the Fascists because they were willing to give themselves for their country and not just their dollars.
Predicting that British nerves will win the war, Stowe said, "This war is very far from, being won by Hitler and lost by Britain. Britain will win if we see that she gets the tools (continued to page eight)

Forums Board To Show Three Movies Tonight
"The City," "Choose to Live," and "Juvenile Delinquency," movies sponsored by the Forums Board, were shown this afternoon and will be presented again at 7:30 tonight in Fraser theater.
"The City" contrasts life in a modern city with that of a small planned community. It was featured in a World Fair exhibit in New York.
"Choose To Live" is a film on cancer symptoms, research, and methods of treatment and "Juvenile Delinquency" depicts the stages of crime from petty larceny to murder as exemplified by the life of a boy criminal.
Five Stops For Women
Waterville, March 20—(Special to the Kansan)—Those feminine troubadors, those good will ambassadorettes, those vocalists of proficiency, or better known to the proletariat as the University Women's Glee Club made merry in Marysville yesterday morning and appeared in Waterville today.
The club filled an evening engagement in Washington last night and sings in Belleville at 8 o'clock this evening. Tomorrow morning the women appear in Concordia and Meltonville, and tomorrow afternoon in Abilene, returning to Lawrence in the evening.
Same Old Story Spring Around The Bend
Lawyers Whistle
Tomorrow is the first of spring!
So what? Spring has followed winter and preceded summer for a good many years now, with the same old flowers, birds, moonlight nights, dandelions. $ ^{ \textcircled{1} } $
spring fever and sunstroke.
The out-of-doors may be fresh and inviting, but to the college students, it is just something more to tax their will power and lure them away from those books.
In the spring a young man's fancy is traditionally supposed to turn to thoughts of love. This may or may not hold true. If a college man hasn't found his love in six months of looking, he is probably ill, taking chemistry, calculus, accounting, elementary tap dancing, or is just asleep, and no amount of spring weather will change his unromantic attitude.
For the few the fancy does turn, but new lovers just get a good start when school is over. The spark is stamped out and they part with heartaches and 10 hours of flunk.
Spring also means a lot of whooing, whistling lawyers and extra steps for the shy lassies that must walk through the grove or take the uath down to the Union building, in order to avoid the above-mentioned nuances.
Spring gives one an opportunity to buy new spring clothes, like the

snappy outfit shown here. Yet think of the wasted money. If it weren't for this change of season a girl could go right on wearing the same clothes she wore all winter. After all, fur has its points—some animals never wear anything else. The weather will pull people out-of-doors to bicycle, swim, play tennis, and then let them spend the rest of the week treating sunburns and sore muscles.
Spring is the time of steak fries,
all day coke dates, clamoring radios,
and fighttng cats, which adds up to
no sleep and little if any study.
So tomorrow is spring. Greet it?

Now is the time for sororities to plan how to make this extra-rushed rush week go smoothly and without social kinks.
For some time a new deal in women's rush week has been on fire—advised by the administration, discussed by sorority leaders. This afternoon rush rules for next year were voted upon when more than 20 members of the Pan-Hellenic council met at the Alpha Chi Omega house.

Thirty dollars in prizes was divided equally among the three high contestants. Twelve speakers gave rations on the general subject, Democracy and American Youth." The three winners will make up "democracy" team, which will peak before civic clubs and other groups throughout the state on democracy, E. C. Buehler, professor of speech, said yesterday.
Judging the contest were K. W. Davidson, University director of information, Lee Gemmell, field representative of the extension division, Margaret Anderson, assistant professor of speech, James Barton, instructor of speech, and Ernest Pontius, advertising manager of the lawrence Journal-World. Bob McKay, first year law, was chairman.

Tells of "Razing Day"
Men and women captains will choose their team members separately. Then at a meeting of captains Monday a system of lottery will be used to determine what boy and what girl combine their members to form a team.
Allen, speaking to the captains yesterday, compared the dandelion day to a "razing day" held in 1920 when all the University students combined their efforts to raze the old frame football stadium.
"Approximately $10,000 worth of work was done by students that day," said Allen, "and there is no reason why our Dandelion Day can't be just as valuable." He expressed the wish that the day might become a University tradition.
The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce also has taken a marked interest in the day, and it is possible that it will be made a holiday for the city of Lawrence. If so, townspeople will unite with students in the battle against dandelions, and all will participate in the celebration-carnival in the afternoon.

sports AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
LIKABLE EDDIE HALL the wild horse from the western Kansas plains, is bidding fair in this, his final year of competition, to hang up a record of all around athletic greatness before his career is ended. . The burly grid fullback started off with a neat job of backfielding for Gwinn Henry's Jayhawkers last fall and came out with more minutes of play to his total than any other squad member as an additional proof of ability...
He abandoned a star role in intramural basketball circles the second semester to play varsity ball and immediately entrenched himself among the top ten Jayhawk cagers, turning in better-than-average performances on occasion . . . Hall is now a prominent member of "Phog" Allen's baseball squad where he will be a certain starter at any position but pitcher . . . Three-sport performers in the Big Six are few and far between, hence if the smiling Sublette powerhouse turns in a good season on the diamond, we'll be doffing our hat even more.
BEST ALL-AROUND man in conference circles at present is undoubtedly Kansas State's Chris Langvardt, who has held down regular jobs on the Ags' football, basketball, and baseball teams for two years . . . Two sport satellites would include Oklahoma's Orv Mathews, football and track; Nebraska's Vic Schleich and Wayne Blue, football and track; K-State's Jack Horacek, basketball and baseball; K.U.'s Don Pollom, football and track . . .
These have proved their worth Are there others?
MANY K.U. basketball fans will get their first glimpse at glass backboards when they attend the N.C.A.A. western half playoffs in Kansas City this Friday and Saturday night . . . Also they'll see one of the premier exponents of fast breaking basketball in the country when they view Creighton's tireless, helter-skelter Bluejays . . . Incidently Bob and Mit Allen, who saw Creighton's 57-48 destruction of Iowa State Tuesday night, expressed the opinion that their "Dad" could have done a mite more in slowing the Jays' fast break than did the Cyclones.
DOFFED HATS are in order once again for "Phog" Allen, basketball coach and head of the physical education department, for his move toward creating more respectable handball facilities for eager Hill enthusiasts . . . Allen has promised immediate repair of the four existing courts and is urging student agitation toward the state legislature for appropriation enough to construct a few new all-weather courts . . . Without doubt handball is the most universally played sport on the Hill even though the present facilities could hardly be classed as decent . . . It is a sport that anyone can play, men or women, the equipment costs next to nothing, it is a splendid relaxer sandwiched in an afternoon of study, and with ad-

NCCATourney Opens At K.C. Tomorrow
The National Collegiate Athletic Association basketball championships are nearing a climax this week with the field cut to eight teams and the finalists scheduled to be picked Saturday night.
In Kansas City, the western half of the playoffs will get under way tomorrow night with Arkansas playing Wyoming at 8 o'clock and Creighton tangling with Washington State at 9. The winners will meet Saturday night to determine the champion of the western half of the United States, while the losers will engage in a consolation match.
Meanwhile, a similar tournament will be taking place in Madison, Wis., to choose the eastern representative. Wisconsin, Dartmouth, Pittsburgh, and North Carolina are the four entries, with Wisconsin's Badgers favored to come on top. The eastern winner will be pitted against the western title holder for the national crown a week from Saturday in Kansas City.
Arkansas Favored
Of the four teams playing at Kansas City this week, Arkansas is regarded as the favorite. The Razorbacks, champions of the Southwest conference, boast one of the tallest squads in the country, and have one of the nation's top scorers in Johnny Adams.
Creighton's stock rose considerably by virtue of the Bluejay's showing against Iowa State Monday night. The Jays go in for the fire department brand of basketball and combine accurate shooting with their speed.
Cougars Break Fast
Washington State, champion of the Pacific Coast conference, earned its way to the tournament by defeating Stanford twice in the west coast playoffs. The Cougars use the same style of fast-breaking offense that Creighton employs.
Wyoming, Big Seven king, is an unknown quantity in midwestern circles, but had little trouble in winning in Rocky Mountain territory.
FINAL GAME
Phi Kappa Psi and Sigma Alpha Epsilon will play tonight for the championship of Division I in the men's intramural basketball league at 9 o'clock in Robinson gym.
Kappas Outsplash Rivals
The Kappa's swam away with top honors last night in the girl's intramural swimming meet with high score of 60 points. The Alpha Chi's ranked second with 24 points, the Pi Phi's third with 18 points, and the TNT's fourth with four points.
The Kappa's swept the diving with Lura Smith, Shirley Irwin, Dollie Newlon, and Betsy Dodge placing in that order.
Relay—Kappa's first; Pi Phi's, second; Alpha Chi's third.
Other results were:
Breaststroke for form—Ruth Beeler, Alpha Chi, first; Betty Lawrence, T.N.T., second; Virginia Elliott, Kappa, third; Margaret Whitehead, Alpha Chi, fourth.
Free-style-Eva Magill, Kappa first; Billie McIntire, Kappa, second; Shirley Irwin, Kappa, third; Betty Hancock, Pi Phi, fourth.
Backstroke—Betty Allen Alpha Chi, first; Lura Smith, Kappa, second; Betty Hancock, Pi Phi, third; Jo Ann Perry, Kappa, fourth.
Crawl stroke for form-Margaret Whitehead, Alpha Chi, first; Eva Magill, Kappa, second; Sue Haskins, Pi Phi, third; Jane Veatch, Pi Phi, fourth.
Sidestroke—Lura Smith, Kappa, first; Jean Hinshaw, Pi Phi, second; Betty Jean Hess, Kappa, third; Billie McIntire, Kappa, fourth.
Lura Smith and Eva Magill coped individual honors with 15 points each. The second half of the meet will be held in Robinson gym pool at 7:30 o'clock tonight. Teams participating will be the Theta's Gamma Phi's, Alpha Delta Pi's, I.W.W.'s, Chi Omega's, Corbin hall, and Watkins hall.
Commerce Team Loses to Oilers
Former Kansas basketball stars were on both winning and losing teams yesterday as the Phillip's Oiers of Bartlesville, Okla., smashed Kansas City's College of Commerce team, 49-24, in a third round game of the National A.A.U. basketball tournament in Denver.
Fred Pralle accounted for six Phillips points from a guard position, while Howard Engleman chalked up 12 for the Commerce crew. Dick Harp started at guard for the Businessmen and John Kline also saw service in the game, but between them they sank only four points.

Wyandotte won from Chanute in a late rally by the score of 28-20. Thompson and Thomas of the victors scored 17 of their team's points.
Mowery and Short of Salina scored 2 and 11 points respectively to lead their team in a 30-28 victory over Parsons, but it was Keithline's last-minute goal that broke a 28 point deadlock and won the game. Dale Hall of the losers kept his team in the game by scoring 14 points.
Hutchinson won the first game for the Ark Valley contingent by defeating Manhattan 36-26. Mitchell paced the winners with 18 counters.
Newton, the Ark Valley champion, won with ease from Junction City, McCloud, with 15 points, taking offensive honors.
In what was perhaps the most exciting game of the evening, PhMer-
son came from behind to defeat Pittsburg 30-29.
El Dorado scored another victory for Ark Valley in upsetting Shawnee Mission 34-28. McSpadden tallied 11 points.
Wallace of Topeka chalked up 12 points to lead his team in a 36-30 victory over the Coffeyville Tornadoes. Topeka trailed 13-19 at the half, but a third quarter rally allowed them to coast to victory.

BeginWorkToday On Engine Lab
Construction work began today on the Engineering Research laboratory, to be located behind Marvin hall.
Alternate layers of cement and brick, which will serve as foundations for the building, were poured in one of the rear excavations. Other excavations will be filled in when the water remaining from the recent snows is drained.
The "factory" in the basement of Hoch auditorium is manufacturing more than 100 blocks daily for use in the building with only one of the six forms in operation. Nearly 800 blocks have been made since work began eight days ago. The remaining forms are expected to be used soon.
Each of the blocks weighs slightly more than 26 pounds. About 100 blocks can be made from one yard of earth. An estimated 40,000 blocks will be used in the building. This will utilize 400 yards, or 1,080,000 pounds of earth.
When completed, the building will be 160 feet long and 40 feet wide. It will contain seven research laboratories, broadcasting facilities for radio station KFKU, and several other rooms. The project will be completed in about six months.
Henry Experiments With Backfield
Stressing timing on his new set of plays, Gwinn Henry, head football coach, sent his charges through a light workout yesterday afternoon on the regular practice field.
Henry used various backfield combinations in his new formation, which has been dubbed by some a modified "T," but also resembles the double-wing used by the Jayhawks last year.
One offensive backfield had Ralph Miller in the vital quarterback role; Ralph Childs and Harlan Altman, wingbacks; and Don Ettinger, full-back. Ray Niblo and Marvin Vandaveer were in the ball-handling slot in other combinations, with Frank Vratil, Gregory Studer, and Denzil Gibbens, wingbacks; and Ed Linquist as a fullback.
Linemen, in addition to working on fundamentals, set up a five-man defense against the new plays. Next week they will try a six-man line. Dick Wilson, all-city end from Southwest High School, Kansas City, Mo., is an addition to the squad.
Display Prize Prints In Union Lounge
Prize winning prints from the twentieth annual national competition organized by the American Photographic Publishing company are now on display in the lounge of the Memorial Union building.
Requested by Oren Bingham, of the University photographic bureau, the company sent the group of photographs which ranked highest in an amateur contest. The display is being sponsored by the Student Union Activities committee.
Besides representing states of the United States, winning pictures are from South Africa, Italy, Switzerland, India, Greece, England, and Canada.

"THEY ALSO SERVE—"
Last week John Urich, his wife and his seeing-eye dog, appeared in a benefit program in Frank Strong auditorium. They received $50 in order that Mr. Urich may continue his education.
Few persons knew that the performance had been sponsored by the K.U. chapter of Alpha Phi Omega, national service fraternity. This organization was founded at Lafayette college for college men who had been Boy Scouts. Its sole purpose is to be of service. Each member pledges service to his community, to his fellow citizen, to his fellow members, and to the nation.
The K.U. chapter was founded in 1937 with a membership of 10. Gordon Brigham was the first president. In the spring of 1939 Kenneth Cedarland was elected president, and Stan Clark has been head of the group since early in 1940.
Besides the Urich benefit, the University chapter of this fraternity sponsors the following projects: (1) Help to needy families at Christmas. (2) Creation of a blood bank. Each member has his blood tested and typed. When atransfusion is needed, he may be called upon to donate blood. (3) An annual Easter party for underprivileged Lawrence children.
The organization does not have a restricted membership. Any college man who has been a Boy Scout is eligible to join.
Although Alpha Phi Omega is sanctioned by the national Boy Scout organization, there is no direct connection. The two organizations are distinct.
The members of Alpha Phi Omega receive nothing for the work they do. Theirs is a group devoted to service to others. They neither seek nor desire reward. Such an organization deserves more recognition than has been given to it.
IT AIN'T SANITARY—BY GUM
Although there are four courses offered in physiology and one course in personal and community health, not to mention food and nutrition, etc., students still find the most convenient receptacle for chewed gum to be the cup surrounding a drinking fountain.
To the calloused drinker at campus fountains such deposits may no longer be revolting, but to the ingenue and to the visitor who happens to be thirsty, such filigree work will completely destroy any thirst and cause a slight nausea.
There is no reason for such unsanitary practices. Kleenex has been written up in song and story as the best way to combat the spreading of cold germs. It is also a most useful material for disposing of used Beechies for the convenience of the user and the comfort of thirsty persons who prefer their water unpolluted. From almost any point on the campus it is only a few feet to a waste container where the paper or wad of gum may be safely cast aside.
Smoking students have been regulated to the places where they may safely enjoy their morning cigarette. This was done not only as a preventive against fire, but also for the comfort of non-smoking students and visitors who might be repelled by the sight of smouldering cigarette stubs scattered in their pathway.
No legislation has been or probably will be passed against the gum-chewing students,but
as a matter or courtesy and good health, the least they can do is to be sanitary in the enjoyment of their gum.

The shocking news that the University is going to declare all-out war on dandelions comes as a distinct blow to nature lovers. Why this sudden, blood-thirsty, inhumane treatment of the poor, defenseless—to say nothing of the decorative—dandelion?
Editor, Daily Kansan:
How would you feel if a horde of saddle-shoed barbarians should descend upon you and tear you up, roots and all, to be cast in the refuse pile? Then consider the poor dandelion.
As good a slogan as any for an institution of higher learning is "live and let live." Surely we all agree that there is enough killing in the world already. Surely the philosophic souls of us educated, cultured, sophisticated, future leaders of the world will revolt at the thought of dispossessing one of Heaven's few decorations that will thrive on Kansas soil.
Dandelions are not monsters. They just come around in the spring and liven up the landscape with splashes of color, not harming anyone, not even filling the air with sickening-sweet smells.
If we are to consider the lily of the valley, let us also consider the dandelion.—Ed Garich.
Fly for Business
Students Take To Air Fly for Pleasu
Fly for Pleasure
By HELEN MARKWELL
In Europe they are saying "fly for your life." In Lawrence the Ashcraft Brother's Flying Service, renters of the Lawrence municipal airport, say "fly for pleasure, fly for business." More and more citizens of Lawrence are doing just that. Bill and Don Ashcraft, former students of the University of Kansas, started their business at this airport almost three years ago with one plane and a hangar. Their business consisted of taking students from the University and people from Lawrence for short rides
Today KU. students and Lawrence citizens go to the airport, two miles east and a half mile north of town, in much greater numbers to learn how to fly; to have one of the eight instructor pilots fly them on business trips—or to a football or basketball game in Nebraska. Others, those who really have the flying fever, go to the airport to take up their own ships. Four planes are privately owned.
over the city and country-side. Now and then came someone for a lesson in flying.
Air-Minded City
According to Don Ashercraft, who has had an interest in the flying game for a good many years, Lawrence is "air-minded," considering the fact that it has a population of only 15,000. Within the last two years the airport has been enlarged to 100 acres. The field has four cinder runways which are equipped with border lights for night flying. New hangar space is the problem now.
Twenty men and women from Lawrence are on the student roll call as private students in the Ashcraft Flying School. Eight hours of instruction from one of the eight "flight professors" enables most students to get a solo license, and a private pilot's license after 35 hours of time in the air, and a passing (continued to page eight)
ROCK CHALK TALK
By HEIDI VIETS
At the Delta Chi house the other night, Jim Sherman telephoned Adolph Hitler.
The boys were sitting around bulling about who had made the longest distance phone call. Let's phone Hitler and tell him he's a so-and-so," said Neil Lysaught to Sherman.
"O.K.," said Sherman. They looked up the cost of a person-to-person call to Berlin. It was $19, so it was agreed to split the cost three ways. Came the big moment.
The Lawrence operator made connections first to New York, then to Berlin, where a Nazi secretary told him that his conversation would have to go through an interpreter-censor. Sherman was still ready to air his views to the Fuehrer when another secretary told him the Great Man had refused to accept the call.
Report charges were $2.50.
Since after that story anything else seems weak, anyway, we might offer that in California a baby chick broke out of his shell and survived even though his gadabout mother had stopped setting on the eggs six days before. Hereafter he is to be known as "superchick."
At the women's intramural swimming meet last night, three girls not officially entered in events got their feet wet, anyway.
Near the door of the swimming room is a footbath in which all mermaids slosh off their tootsies before plunging in. It is commonly understood, however, that spectator sneed no footbath. But Rita Lemoine, Dorothy Schroeter, and Carolyn Sloan forgot that when they waded right through in shoes and socks.
When Madge Jones asked where the morning paper was last Monday, two boarders at the house told her that President Roosevelt had made St. Patrick's day a national holiday, and there would be no paper. For a minute she believed them.

MUST GIVE ALL---no matter what risks." An American Trench
"The British Isles are the first trench of American free government," he continued. "If Britain goes down I'd stake my life that within five years and maybe three years a Nazi dictatorship will occupy Washington, D.C. set there by supposed Americans."
Stowe backed this statement by proving that if Germany defeats Britain, the American need not worry about mass invasion by Hitler and his troops.
Warns Against 'Political Syphilis'
Wars Against Political Syphilis America's great danger lies in political syphilis spread by unconscious carriers. If the United States wants freedom, she must realize that holding up her skirts and withdrawing to her own yard will not guarantee it for her.
"One of the greatest things I got out of the war is that in this revolutionary world in which we live freedom is eternity and death just an episode," the speaker declared fervently.
Following the dinner he conducted a short question and answer forum in which he stressed the importance of a liberal arts education for all journalists.
Earlier in the evening Stowe was the guest of honor at a dinner meeting of Sigma Delta Chi, men's honory journalism fraternity. Bull Session with Journalists
"I think it would be a good idea to have four years of liberal arts training including history, economics, and at least two languages, before you take up journalism," the famous reporter told the University's young journalists.
The speaker's captivating smile, witty remarks, and vivid descriptions made him a hit with both the Sigma Delta Chi's and the lecture audience.

One of the airport's main functions is to maintain a flight training school under the C.A.A. program. This is in connection with the University where the ground school work for the young pilots is provided. Since the fall of 1939, 180 students from K.U. have received their private pilot licenses. Right now 50 students are enrolled in the primary training course, which gives them their private pilot's license. Thirty students have obtained entrance into the advanced training course. In this class the students receive a higher rating as pilot of a heavier ship than was used for the first course. They gain more accuracy in acrobatic flying and spot landings.

Huxman to Speak Tomorrow Night Lawyers Will Honor Burdick
BY JOHN HARVEY
Dr. William L. Burdick, professor of law, will be the guest of honor at the Burdick Day banquet to be held at 7:30 o'clock tomorrow night on his eighty-first birthday in the Kansas Room of the Memorial Union building by alumni and students of the University School of Law.
One of Dr. Burdick's former students, Walter A. Huxman, ex-governor of Kansas and now judge on the United States circuit court of appeals, will speak on changes in the practice of law before the court as seen by a judge on the court. Justice William A. Smith of the Kansas Supreme Court will also speak.
Burdick as the guest of honor, will speak to the students and alumni. F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law, will introduce the guests. Ernest Deines, third year law, will be the toastmaster.
"Hah! Of course you don't know.
You're not supposed to know. We
P. W. Lloyd
DR. W.L. BURDICEL
don't even care what the law in South 'Caroliner' is. The Kansas Statute is controlling."
Again this year, students in the School of Law hear Dr. William L. Burdick growl approval when "I don't know" proves to be the correct answer.
That same gruff expression of satisfaction has stamped points of law inelibly on the minds of students of the School of Law for two generations.
Not Last Class
Each year seniors in the law school who take Roman Law or Criminal Procedure believe themselves to be members of the last classes to be taught by the former dean. Each year it is believed that Burdick will grow tired of meeting classes each morning and will retire at the end of the year.
But each fall he returns with renewed vigor to meet his classes for another year.

K.U. Band To Swing Out Monday
The University Band will blare, swing, and trill through its thirty-fourth annual Spring Concert in Hoch uaditorium Monday evening. The program, composed of 14 numbers by both old and new masters, begins at 8 o'clock and will last approximately two hours.
Students are awaiting the concert with a great deal of anxiety, espec-
ally since Wally Kunkel, college sophomore, figured that Bob Jenkins, fine arts sophomore, will bounce his drumsticks through four miles of space while beating the kettle drums-for the evening's performance.
Included in the program will be "The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise" (Alford) and the Strauss Valse
"Stories of the Vienna Forest," as well as many other popular numbers. Solo appearances will be made by cornetist Horacek, fine arts senior, and trombonist Leslie Sperling, fine arts senior. Student directors who will have an opportunity to prove their ability are Richard Tippin, fine arts senior, and Arthur Harris, graduate student.
Movies Watch Dandelion Plan
Wanna be a movie actor?
You do? You really can be one—easily. All you have to do is join a dandelion-pulling team, come to the campus on Dandelion Day, and pull dandelions.
Several major film companies are negotiating with Charles Wright, Dandelion Day commander, for movie rights on the day.
You can be an actor. Of course your contract might be a 10-year job, but you should be able to flash your smiling face before the film-
The first dandelion digging captain to name the members of his team, Richard Westfall, education senior, today announced the following as competent grubbers: Bill Langworthy, Bob Barnard, Byron Schroeder, Fred Coulson, Pat Niemson, Julien LePage, Don Thompson, Jean LePage, George Latham, Dalton Holland, George Westfall, Don Ettinger, Jack Weaver, Bill Weaver, and Lee Thorn.
Wright has also contacted "Life" and "Time" magazines. They have shown a marked interest in the day, and it is probable that they will have reporters and photographers on Mt. Oread to cover the event.
grinders at least once during the day.
More good news—the dandelions are coming thick and fast, and are growing like regular like weeds. If they continue the killing pace, Dandelion Day can be held April 2, the date for which it is tentatively scheduled.

Schedule Only Skilton's Works For Tribute
Friends of the late Charles Sanford Skilton will pay tribute to his memory at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon in Hoch auditorium when a program will be given consisting entirely of his compositions.
In charge of all arrangements is the Lawrence Music club of which Mrs. Clifton C. Calvin is president and Mrs. Maurice W. Clarkson is program committee chairman.
Both Mrs. Calvin and Mrs. Clarkson are former students of Professor Skilton and last fall conferred frequently with him as to the character of the program and as to those who might take part.
It was Skilton's desire that the "American Indian Fantasie," one of his most successful compositions be played by Powell Weaver, Kansas City composer and organist. Weaver will close the program with this number.
The University symphony orchestra will open the program with the Frelude to "Electra" and the two Indian dances, "Deer Dance" and "War Dance," two compositions (continued to page eight)
Coughs Increase Watch lt!
Have that cough treated, students If the number of coughs at the Leland Stowe lecture Wednesday night is indicative of the number of colds on the campus, more students should be treated at Watkins Memorial hospital.
Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the health service, today urged all students with colds to report at the hospital.
*March 28 dance date cancelled.
The dance has been postponed until the middle of April because the name hand which Littooy had been trying to sign up for the March 28 date found bookings elsewhere.
The current situation is reminiscent of the Sophomore Hop. Larry Clinton was booked for the dance at one time, cancelled; then the dance was postponed again before Jan Savitt finally put in appearance.
No provision has been made by Littooy for the Senior Cakewalk, scheduled in the K-book for May 10.
Plan Interviews For Marine Corps
Men students who receive their degrees this year will have an opportunity to gain appointments to the candidates' class of the Marine Corps reserve when Lieutenant Robert D. Tapplett, U. S. Marine Corps, and a medical examiner visit the University Monday and Tuesday of next week.
Interviews and preliminary physical examinations will be given to interested students between the hours of 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. at the office of the University military department.
Applicants who are accepted will be enrolled in the candidates' class which begins about July 1, 1941.
If the applicant is commissioned a second lieutenant at the end of the three month training period, he will then be given a three month officers' training course. After graduation from the officers' school the applicant will be assigned to troops for the duration of the emergency.
Pharmacy Class Returns
Members of the senior pharmacy class, Dean J. Allen Reese, and Dr. L. L. Boughton, assistant professor of pharmacy, returned to the campus yesterday from Wichita, where they attended the meeting of the Kansas Pharmaceutical Association.

Cometh now the difficult task of trying to set down some rules of thumb regarding the scrambling of slacks and sport coats. Now look . . . don't fluff these suggestions off, because they represent the opinions of experts and therefore do not necessarily reflect our own color-blind observations!
First let's talk about the "Spring Topcoat of the Week." It's a cored woolen job with set-on sleeves. There's a mighty racy plaid lining inside and it has a single-breasted fly-front. The color is brown; the collar is Prussion. If you want to see what one of the things looks like, look at Frank Bolin's.

Said combinations are: medium brown with light tan, aqua green with tan, dark green with pastel green, and oxford grey with natural tan.

Western Playoffs Begin Tonight
Kansas City, Mo., March 20—(UP)Four basketball teams which have become sworn athletic enemies overnight, sight unseen, compete in two games tonight in the first round of the western N.C.A.A. playoffs.
Each is a champion of its sector and has come to represent it in the "sudden death" series which eliminates every loser without another chance. Creighton University of Omaha and Washington S tate college play in one game tonight and Arkansas University meets Wyoming University in the other. The two winners play each other tomorrow night for the western championship.
Friel Scouts Opposition
Jack Friel, coach of the Washington State team, which won 24 out of 29 games against far western opposition, arrived in town a few days ahead of his team and saw his first round opponent defeat Iowa State Tuesday night. None of the other coaches has had a chance to see the other teams in action.
Because both Washington State and Creighton employ a fast breaking defense, Friel looks for a wide open game with plenty of action.
"If our kids go out and shoot like they ought to, we ought to win," Friel said. "If they don't we're in plenty of trouble. Honestly I think we've got a better ball club.
Creighton in Shape
Coach Eddie Hickey of Creighton, who knows nothing more about Washington State than that it is what he calls "tall and terrific" thinks that his boys have an excellent chance.
"We're in good condition and we are hitting shots as good as we have all season," he said. "I don't know how fast Washington State is, but I think we are a little faster. Anyway we're set for the game."
Start Infield Workouts
With the official arrival of spring, baseball practice on the diamond southeast of Memorial stadium has been proceeding at a rapid pace. Some thirty to forty players have reporting to "Phog" Allen, head coach, every afternoon and several are beginning to cut loose with their throwing arms.
Heretofore the ball players had been taking it easy because of the danger of acquiring sore arms by working out in low temperatures. They are still cavorting around the infield in various warmup costumes, but have progressed far enough to engage in some snappy fielding drills, in addition to batting and flychasing.
Among the infield combinations was one consisting of Steve Meade, burly footballer, at first; Jerry Boynton at second; Virgil Wise, a varsity basketball man, at short stop; and Toby Brumback at third. Another quartet were Allen Nipper at first; John Burge, a pitcher, covering second; John Krum at shortstop; and Red Thompson at third. Ed Hall and Dick Pierce are dividing the catching assignment.

Phi Psi's Win With Meade's Miracle Shot
By CLINT KANAGA
---
With Big Steve Meade producing the most spectacular shot of the intramural season, Phi Kappa Psi won the Division I championship last night, nosing out Sigma Alpha Epsilon 29 - 28 in the last five seconds of play. Meade fired his game winning goal from his free throw line, over half the length of the court.
The victory gave the Phi Psi's a season record of 10 wins against three losses. At the end of the regular schedule, the Sig Alph's, Delta Chi's, and Phi Psi's shared a three-way deadlock for first place in Division I. However, the Phi Psi's knocked off the Delta Chi's 40-20 two days ago and last night removed their last barrier, the Sig Alph's, to win the championship division cup.
The Sig Alph's led most of the way in last night's contest. Ahead 16-12 at halftime, the Sig Alph's held a three or four point margin over their opponents until the final seconds. With a minute to play, the Phi Psi five trailed 28-25. Tom Arbuckle, Phi Psi long shot artist, swished one from the sky to put his team within a point of the Alph's, and some 50 seconds later, Meade executed his shot of a lifetime.
In an intra-fraternity game, the champion Phi Delt "C" team lost to Phi Delt "B" team by a score of 40-28.

Turning in the upset were the Salina Maroons, who defeated a methodical Hutchinson team 29-25. Mowrey led the scoring for Salina with 13 points.

Tracksters To Enter AAU Meet
H. W. "Bill" Hargiss, varsity track coach, will enter a mile and a two mile relay team in addition to individual performers in the Missouri Valley AAU indoor track and field meet to be held in Kansas City Monday. This is to be the Jayhawks last indoor meet before the outdoor season.
T
Since all Kansas trackmen are entered unattached, the two mile relay team will be strengthened by the addition of Ray Harris, Big Six twomile champion, who is assisting Hargiss in the coaching duties this year. Don Thompson, Dick Edwards, and Albert Poznick are expected to be the other members of the relay quartet.
Kenneth Hamilton, Don Pollom, Orlando Epp, and either Fred Ebherhardt or Ted Scott will make up the mile relay team.
Other probable entries in the Kansas City meet are Norman Sanneman in the high jump; J. R. Jones broadjump; Bill Beven and Jack Michener, pole vault; and Don Pollom in the hurdles. The distance entries have not been chosen.
Bob Stoland, who won both the high and broad jump at the Big Six indoor meet, will not be ready for the AAU event, but his injured leg is expected to be healed in time for the Texas Relays, April 5.
Neither Darrell Mathes, Jayhawk co-captain, or Scott will enter the sprints at Kansas City. Mathes injured his ankle in practice recently, while Scott suffered a pulled muscle earlier in the season, and has been taking diathermy treatments.

To Make Three Relays Changes
Three major changes in the administration of the Kansas Interscholastic Track and Field Meet will be tried this year, Gwinn Henry, director of athletics, said today.
To control the size of the meet, which will be held here April 16, an entry fee of 25 cents per athlete will be charged.
To justify the entry fee, and to gain more competitive spirit, medals will be awarded to all winners of first, second, and third places.
The third change provides that the mile, the 880, and the 440 yard runs will be run in sections with winners determined by comparative time.

Hay, Henry Describe Modern Air Work Over Station KFKU
Taking to the airwaves today to describe modern aeronautical work were Earl C Hay, professor of mechanical engineering and head of the CAA program here, and Howard Henry, professor of mechanical engineering.
In a half hour broadcast at 3 o'clock over radio station KFKU, they told of the progress of aeronautical engineering, and the future possibilities in that field.
The program was conducted on a sort of "Information Please" basis, with Henry asking the questions and Hay answering.

Claassen Burns As Men Singers Return Today
By GRAY DORSEY
The Men's Glee Club arrived back on the Hill at 1:30 today after a five-day trip to Salina, Russell, Ellis, Wakeeney, Garden City, Scott City, Dighton, and Hoisington. The quartet composed of Bill McIntire, Bob Jenkins, Victor Miller, and John Naff made a side trip to sing in Ness City while the club was in Dighton. The boys report an epidemic of puffed eyes but no fatalities. Following is a story written from Hoisington after the concert there last night.
The girls in the Home Economics department here cooked and served dinner for the club this evening. As the boys rose to leave, Lander dutifully squared off to make a speech of appreciation. Just as he opened his mouth some snake in the bushes gave forth with a most tremendous bu-u-r-r-rp. The girls retired in confusion, the boys piled out in bedlam, and Lander resigned in a huff.
Hoisington, March 20—(Special)—Lander Claassen today resigned, as of immediately, as president of the Glee Club. He claims somebody done him wrong.
The Glee Club is really on the beam now. We've had a poem written about us. To prove somebody loves us, here it is:
The Singing Ambassadors
A toast I would offer, out here
neath the blue.
Of vaulted skies blending each shadow and hue.
Not to him who would travel the highway to fame.
Bill Hayes, '79, appointed himself temporary traffic policemen when he saw the club's bus rolling through La Crossse, this afternoon. Bill ran out in the street and the bus held up while the older members talked over old times with Bill who was in the club for three years. Bill Smith, former student, was in the hall at the Dighton concert.
But to those on Mount Oread, the boys brave and true,
The Singing Ambassadors, orchids to you!
For the wealth or the honor it might give his name;
Dr. Logan Clendening of the University School of Medicine in Kansas City was the featured speaker at the monthly meeting of Sigma XI, honorary science society, last night in Blake hall.
Clendening Speaks At Sigma Xi Meeting
His subject was "Science and Medicine of the pre-Columbian Native American Peoples." Clendening was also initiated into the society at last night's meeting. His newspaper column, "Diet and Health," appears daily in the Kansas City Star.
Budget Requests Go Before Legislature
Most unusual request in the appropriations bill now before the Kansas legislature is the $15,000 dollar item providing for the establishment of a commercial training course. The money to be used for buying equip- $
propriations of the past two years. About a fifth of this total increase is for salaries and wages.
The 1939 legislature passed a resolution establishing the course. Included in the training will be a secretarial major for students and a graduate curriculum for high school commercial teachers.
The bill now up calls for an increase of $549,000 above the ap-
The major item in the entire appropriation is the request for $408,-500 to build and equip the Minerals Industries building during 1941-1943.
Displays Killer Instinct
John Kline and Howard Engleman returned to school today after playing with Kansas City's College of Commerce team in the National A.A.U. basketball tournament. Their team lost in the third round to Phillips Oilers of Bartlesville, Okla.
To Win Slide Rule
Displaying a killer instinct for working mathematics problems, Raymond York, senior engineer, won a $13.50 slide rule last night in the contest given during the Engineers' banquet in the ballroom of the Memorial Union building.
Howard Engleman
Eight engineers, drawn by lot, took part in the contest. They were seated on the stage, and given a sealed envelope containing a problem. The person solving the problem in the shortest time and with the most nearly correct answer, with the aid of a

York and Charles Carey, senior engineer, wound up in a dead heat, but York was nearest to the correct answer by one decimal point and received the slide rule, which was donated by Rowlands Book Store.
Also on the program were talks by three employees of the Phillips Petroleum company, Bartlesville, Okla., all graduates of the University and a group of songs by the K. U. Serenaders.

FOREIGN DISPATCHES
FRIDAY, MARCH 21, 1941.
American war correspondents have been doing such a good job of getting their dispatches through to this country that we here at home seldom even think about their problem.
When Leland Stowe spoke to members of Sigma Delta Chi, journalism fraternity, before his lecture last Wednesday, he told of the trouble that journalists in Europe have in getting their stories sent to their papers.
The first problem, of course, is censorship. Whenever the Germans take over a new country, they usually clamp down a strict censorship on all wire and radio services at a time when news from that country is most desired by the world, and by America in particular. Later on the bars are raised, but by that time the real news has died.
Another problem is that of expenses. Mr. Stowe said that from Greece the cable rate to American was 27 cents per word. When dispatches of 1,000 to 5,000 words are sent, the tolls get rather high.
In order to compete with such high cable tolls, several big American papers. The New York Times, New York Herald-Tribune, Chicago Daily News, and others, set up a wireless station in Paris about 10 years ago. Correspondents of the papers paying for the service could then telephone their messages to the Paris wireless station. From there the dispatches would be radioed to New York.
When France fell, the station was moved to Amsterdam. After the invasion of The Netherlands, the papers took their wireless to Berne, Switzerland, and it is there today.
This service has proved to be of inestimable service to correspondents, Mr. Stowe said. But the problem remains of telephoning the messages to the Berne station. Wires were often closed by the Germans or by the officials of jittery countries, and sometimes the armies, especially the Greeks and Fascists, decided to fight their battles far beyond the reach of a telephone.
In Greece, Mr. Stowe and other correspondents had a free-lance correspondent receive their stories each day-for a price per storyat Athens, have the articles censored, and then dictate them over the telephone to Berne. The cost of sending the stories in this way was about 10 cents per word as compared to 27 cents per word by direct cable to New York.
Our newspapermen brave death covering this war, but they aren't sure anybody will hear about it when they do get some news about it.
THE HUMAN SITUATION
Speaking before the group of people who crowded Hoch auditorium last October to pay tribute to Ernest Hiram Lindley, Fred M. Harris, chairman of the state board of regents, said, "One of the greatest losses which the students of the University and the people of this state have ever suffered is that the lectures which Mr. Lindley planned are never to be given."
Plans are now being made by a number of University alumni to take care of that loss. The proposed Lindley Memorial, still in the incubator stage, will provide for a yearly lecture or series of lectures by some nationally prominent man or woman on Mr. Lindley's own proposed lecture courses, "The Human Situation" and "Plan for Living."
The Lindley lectures seem more appealing than most of the ways universities and colleges honor their great men. Once a year Kansans will almost be able to see their smiling Chancellor emeritus.

BOOKS
Editor's Note: Today the "Oread Magazine" appears for the first time in three years. The magazine, published by the Quill club, sells for 25 cents.
THE OREAD MAGAZINE
Reviewed by George F. Waggoner, instructor in English
It is good to see the reappearance of the "Oread Magazine." After an absence of several years, it is published again in an attractive format. One hopes that it can make a regular appearance, for a publication in which student writing of a serious kind is used should be a part of the activities of every university. In a state university as large as ours, there is certainly sufficient writing talent to justify a magazine. The publication of the magazine in itself should create interest in writing of artistic intent.
One of the articles in the current number of the magazine, a history of Quill club written by Dr. E. M. Hopkins, tells interestingly of the forty year tradition of the club and its publications. With this background the magazine makes a welcome appearance.
This latest issue of the magazine contains almost equal amounts of prose and verse. The verse, which is the more interesting, varies from the long narrative to the epigram and epitaph. The outstanding poems are "Memories of Franz Marc" by Bill Read, two poems by William Stafford, and "Rondeau" by Robert Humphrey.
Among the prose a reminiscence of a wedding, "Now That I Can Talk About It" by Jane Robison, and a humorous sketch "The Higher Education," written in the stream of consciousness style, are most effective. One's chief complaint about the prose is its lack of convincingness and sincerity. Several of the stories have a manufactured and artificial quality and strained effects that very nearly spoil them.
On the whole, however, one congratulates the Quill club on this latest edition of the "Oread Magazine." If it is as completely successful as it might be, its very appearance is an encouraging sign. The material in it, too, indicates that effort should be made to continue publication and to make the magazine a regular event during each year.
ROCK CHALK TALK BY HEIDI VIETS
Jumping the gun might have been easy at the women's intramural swimming meet last night if there had been a gun to jump. Most of the time Jim Raport couldn't get it to go off. Six times during the course of events he raised it for a bang, got a click instead. Contestants would plunge into the water only to climb out, dripping for him to try again.
Finally, while he was trying to start the two-lengths breast stroke race, he resorted to Miss Ruth Hoover's whistle, which he used for the rest of the meet.
In one of the 300 Philippine dialects, "Yes" is the cute word, "ohoh." So Jean Sellers learned when she received a letter from a marine now stationed in the Philippines. "No" is "hindi," which doesn't mean a thing. And those three little words that every language has stuck in somewhere are "inibig kita."
In the middle of Miss Sara Laird's narration and description class a man, with no explanation or warning, got up and calmly walked out.
Miss Laird watched the exit, then remarked, "Well, I guess I should have shut the door."
After a few minutes the fellow came back with a strange woman. All Miss Laird said was, "Well!"
The telephone number of Moody apartment 12 is 781. The Kappa number, as if you didn't know, is 718. Frequently young swains get their wires crossed, call the apartment boys when they want the Kappa's.
---
Last night Orlando Epp and Winifred Nash talked long minutes to a man who wanted to talk to Betsy Dodge.
"How did you guys get on the third floor of the Kappa house?" he would ask.
"Betsy will be here in just a minute," they would answer. Finally the frustrated fellow hung up.
When Sigma Delta Chi, honorary professional journalism fraternity, entertained Leland Stowe at dinner the other night, they found that an ace foreign correspondent may also be a milk-totaler. "Over there" no milk is to be had, he told them. That is why he relishes it more than ever now. He drank two glassfuls, and asked to keep his milk glass by him until the last word was spoken.
LETTERS
To the Editor:
Is our security dependent on English victory? No one has proved it yet.
Is our security dependent on English victory? No one has proved it yet. It is difficult to understand why college students will permit propaganda and misled public opinion to direct their sympathies so completely. A startling example of this can be seen in the turn of thought most K.U. students seem to have undergone in regard to helping England in the present war.
In a few months the convictions of many of the K.U. student body have been completely reversed. Even isolationists of last September are avid "pro-Britishers" already. What will the situation be when the war-mongers really turn on the heat to convince the public that we should send men along with the arms to aid England. Will college men and women, who should be able to evaluate printed material, still follow blindly the newspapers' and magazines' misrepresentations designed to work up war fever?
Are they going to continue on to the point where they will be willing to offer their lives for an ungrateful England? If men of selective service age allow their emotions to be stampeded, surely no one else will recoil from war.
From a graduate student who things England has the more favorable cause but is unwilling to pay a nickel to help them win.

to press sometime next week, Nichols predicted.
Since the original announcement of the contents of the book, 24 pages of explanatory notes on the chapters have been added to the original 200 pages. Thus the history will contain 75 chapters and 150 photographs.
Orders for the book are continuing to pour into the Alumni office at the rate of 25 to 30 a day and the total paid orders are now approximately 300.
Nichols warned, however, that the deadline for orders at $1.50 per book has been extended to April 1. After that date the book will sell for $2.

HONOR BURDICK—
Burdick came to the University in 1898 when the School of Law had been a "school" only seven years and has taught here ever since with the exception of a year's leave of absence in 1932-33 when he made a trip around the world studying the laws of other lands.
Born In 1860
Burdick was born in East Greenwich, Rhode Island, on March 22,
1860. He received his A.B. from Wesleyan University at Middletown, Conn., in 1882 and received his Ph.D. from Chattanooga University at Chattanooga, Tenn., in 1884.
In 1885 he was admitted to the Connecticut bar and in 1888 and '89 studied law in the Harvard Graduate School. In 1898 he received a Ll.B. from Yale, and in 1937 he was awarded the degree of LID. from Wesleyan, his alma mater.
Chancellor for a Time
He has served as vice-president of the University since 1916 and was Chancellor for a time between the administrations of the late Chancellor E. H. Lindley. In May, 1935, he was elected dean of the School of Law and resigned after two years at the age of 77.
Last year as Burdick approached his eighteenth birthday, students of the School of Law decided to designate the annual banquet to the beloved professor. Formerly referred to as Law day, the event was renamed Burdick day.
Easter vacation made it impossible to hold the annual event on Burdick's birthday last year and it was held a few days late. This year however, March 22 falls on Saturday and all of his "boys" will be on
hand to help him celebrate his eighty-first birthday.

that you're getting less nicotine in the smoke.
Not only extra freedom from nicotine-but other important extras as well-extra mildness, extra coolness,and extra flavor, too, for Camel's slower way of burning means freedom from flavor-dulling excess heat and the irritating qualities of too-fast burning.
There's economy in Camels, too—extra smoking per pack (see below).

LOTTA DIRT Cover Building Activity Brave Perils
By WALLY KUNKEL and GERALD TEWELL
"Where you gonna put this dirt?" we asked him.
"Who the — wants to know?" he spit.
"Er—th—the Kansan."
"Oh! Well, the Chi O's get some. The rest of it goes over to Battenfeld and the Union building. Now get out of here, we're busy."—And he went on to finish his story.
So we went off and sat down on the site of the new R.O.T.C. building.
We noticed that about 500 yards of top-soil had been removed. This good soil would be ruined by the construction materials that would be piled on it in the course of construction.
Outside of two little shacks, one to house building materials, we could see little evidence of progress.
Meandering across the ground floor—and I do mean ground—of the new building, I lost my buddy buddy. He fell into the moist cement of column five on the east wing. Let's hope he likes working in cement.
Disgusted and without a story we got up to leave.
After having covered the construction beat, I tearfully plodded back toward the shack with a story in one hand and a fond memory clinging in my mind.
Next on our construction beat was the new sod house.
Hearing sounds of construction, we looked across the road west and saw one man really going to town on his one-room bungalow of native lumber.
By scientific sounding, whereby I spat into the form for column six, I discovered the depth to be 20 feet. On stepping across the hole, I found it to be two steps wide. That's an awful hole to fill, don't you think?
Dandelion Day Draws Photogs
By all present indications, April 2 will find one of the nation's largest film companies training its cameras on the University campus and its Dandelion Day activities.
Refusing to let the dandelions grow under their feet, officials for the event have called an important meeting of team captains for 4:30 p. m. Monday in the Kansas Room. It is not too late to become a team captain, and interested students should notify Wright.
Charles Wright, fine arts junior, and Dandelion Day commander, has rushed the requested information to Scott.
Officials of the Kansas City bureau of Twentieth Century Fox are enthused over the coming event. W. C. Scott, Kansas City, Mo., district manager for the company, said, "We would like to have a detailed description of the affair as soon as possible. The cameramen are available and only the approval of the home office is necessary."
Music Program In Memory of Skilton Today
In memory of the late Prof. C. S. Skillton, former dean of the School of Fine Arts, a musical program of his own compositions will be performed at 4 o'clock this afternoon in Hoch auditorium.

300 Attend High School Science Meet
In the afternoon they attended demonstrations and exhibits. They saw a pingpong ball playing in a jet of air, watched a spark climb up slightly divergent pairs of wires in the demonstration of "Jacob's One-Rung Ladder," and wondered why.
More than 300 high school students swarmed over the Hill yesterday as guests of the departments of chemistry, physics, and chemical engineering to attend the annual physical science conference.
Two conferences were held in the morning. J. D. Stranathan, head of the physics department, lectured on "Particles of Modern Physics," and W. W. Deschner, assistant professor of chemical engineering, spoke on "Why a Chemical Engineer and What Does He Do?"
Faculty changes . . .
German Department Loses One--Gains One
Anderson spent a year in Germany as University exchange scholar in 1939. He received his Master's degree from Harvard in 1940 and is now working on his doctorate at Harvard.
Professor Engel is best known for his scientific method of teaching German. By his method students speak from the language from the very beginning, rather than learning a vocabulary and fitting the words together.
E. F. Engel, 75-year-old professor of German, plans to retire in June after 57 years at the University. He has been a faculty member in the department of German for 49 years.
Sam Anderson, graduate in 1938, has been appointed to an instructorship in the department of German at the University for the next school year, Chancellor Malott announced yesterday.
He received his A.B. degree from the University in 1892 and became a member of the teaching staff in the department of German of that year. In 1898, on a leave of absence from the University, he received his Master's degree from Harvard. He then returned to the University.
Engel has traveled widely in Europe where he has studied at several universities. There, as well as in America, his theory has received attention, and while in Europe in (continued to page eight)

Hill Women Strut The Annual Spring Parade Down Fashion Lane
Down Fashion Lane
The Easter Parade is here!
The trek down Fashion lane is bound to be early and lengthy, but nevertheless exciting. Theme of the Parade is color interesting pastels to lend an air of lightness with aristocratic navy blue to stabilize the march.
A light and bright yellow plaid wool is "Sit" Theis' newest spring dress. Marilyn Duncan will be seen in a sky blue crepe with a square lace collar. Her coat is a light beige herringbone.
Dorothy Jean Harvey has in her wardrobe a turquoise green wool dress with a gathered skirt front and patch pockets. It is trimmed in black hemstitching. With it she wears a light beige dress coat with box shoulders. The belt is inserted in the back, is loose in front where it ties in a knot.
Gay Richards, Muriel Henry, and Elaine Lindley are all of the aristocracy with navy blue. Gay's dress has a short jacket with three-quarter length sleeves. The collar is of lace. Red and white candy-stripe at the neck and at the edge of the elbow-length sleeves are the accents of Muriel's dress.
Brown and light blue wool in a soft check is the material Miriam Whiteford chose for her suit. Marjorie Siegrist's suit is of camel's hair wool with a white pique collar. The jacket is trimmed with gold military buttons. Mary Millson is sporting out in a turquoise blue twill skirt and long jacket.
To be in swing, the women must be suited this year. Leading the Parade directly behind the band. Jo Ann Perry appeared several weeks ago in a maize long-jacketed suit. The new shade blends with the gold in her hair.
Chestine Wilson is another early suit-wearer. Hers is a cream beige with long jacket. A three-piece suit was Letha Epperly's choice. The jacket and skirt are a light pink, while the top coat is pink and tan plaid. Both the jacket and coat have box shoulders.
In the navy class also is Sue Johnston. The blouse of her crepe dress is divided into two colors, red and white. The back, skirt and sleeves are of navy blue. Jean Fees is wearing a silk with bright colored flowers in a conventionalized design.
Yes, the Easter Parade is here! One man on the campus stated recently. "It's not so much what the women wear, but how them wear it."

Features State Oddities
Believe It or Not
Believe-it-or-nots happen in Kansas just as much as they do anywhere else.
That is what Frank A. Cooper, graduate of '26, thought in 1935 when he started an oddity cartoon feature called "It Happened in Kansas."
The Kansan received special permission from Mr. Cooper to run this feature. In his letter he wrote, "I request that not be used before the Sunday, March 23 issue. I hope you boys honor the release date. This will willl
the release date. This mat will not appear in the JournalWorld, so rest easy."
Six years ago Cooper hit upon the idea of a "Belleve It or Not" feature for Kansas. He does the drawing and lettering himself. He obtains material for the feature from readers, from salesmen who sell the feature, and through occasional visits to the state historical society at Topeka.
"It Happened in Kansas" was being printed in more than 50 weekly and daily papers in 46 counties in Kansas by 1937.
WHAT'S THE SCORE?
Cooper received an art degree from the University in 1926 and returned later for more study. Going to New York, he worked in commercial art and became an artist with Printer's Graphic Arts.
BY J. F. BROWN
For the past seven weeks we have been discussing barriers to Utopia—or, if the reference must be up to the minute, bottlenecks in the production of the Good Society of the future. We early became clear on one point. The present crisis is due to the failure of neither physical nor biological science.
Physical science is certainly in a position to assure at least a fairly decent standard of living to the marginal man of today and it promises a handsome one to the man of tomorrow. Wild animals are rarely encountered except in zoos, termite control functions fairly smoothly in California, the average life span has increased nearly 11 years in the past quarter century. We don't know exactly what causes aging but we do know that death is not inevitable at any specific chronological age. It is not nonsense to suppose that the life span of the man of tomorrow will be nearer ten score and three than three score and ten. The crisis lies in social science.
Science Arises From Necessity
Historically sciences have arisen out of society's necessity. Science, however pure in purpose, mirrors human needs. And it is almost inevitable that a powerful and constructive social science will arise. But it will not arise out of thin air and it will be based on natural law. Already some of the general limiting propositions of social science have been uncovered. And in this uncovering we see the possibilities of making the world a better place in which to live, even if Utopia and the really good society are centuries away. In this series of articles we have enlarged on some of these basic limiting principles or bottlenecks. And in every case we saw the bottleneck could at least potentially be overcome.
Thus we saw that while human inequality was inevitable, neither its range nor the position of the average man was fixed in nature. The future may see less discrepancy between the dull and the bright than we find today and the average man of tomorrow may equal the bright one of today. We saw that man's rational mind depended on his animal body and that this animal body harbored hostility and aggression. But we also saw that some of this
destructive energy could be redirected and some of it displaced. We saw that cooperation was to some extent dependent on competition; that efficient cooperation was maximal when competition is also maximal. But again the possibility arises that the final cooperating group may be humanity itself. We saw that the leaders are all too human, but we also sow that human frailty was more and more understood and that devices might soon be available to prevent the choice of the potentially most dangerous leaders. We saw that emotional indigestion threatens society's equilibrium, but we also saw that it is cureable. We saw that education lags behind science but that we are beginning to understand the cause of this lag. Of course there are many more sociological barriers, but these are some of the chief ones.
What's the Score?
What's the score? The team of the unknown forces in psychological and sociological nature is right now ahead by a couple of touch-downs. But the team of social science has nevertheless scored. And even if it is later than you think, there still is some time before the final whistle blows. Most important of all, the very promising passing partners, socio and psycho dynamics have graduated from freshman status and have just gone into the game.
The tenth annual post-graduate clinic sponsored by the University of Kansas School of Medicine and Extension Division, will be held at the University of Kansas hospital in Kansas City, Kansas, for four days, April 7-10.

Spring Fever Is Fun But Fatal To Quizzes
If you don't believe spring is here, just jump into your car (if you don't have one, try borrowing) and take out. Two to one says you can't drive three blocks without hitting a boy, a girl, a dog, or stopping a softball with the windshield.
But don't let it worry you. Ten minutes later the ball will be lying by the curb, the girls asleep, the dog likewise, and the boys draped around an open-air fliver.
This inactivity is known in higher circles as "spring fever," never fatal to anything but mid semester quizzes. since arguments lead to
Everybody gets spring fever at some time or another. But there are complications—especially when the professor slaps out a test that requires too much time for your comfort. At this point spring fever sometimes advances into mad frustration.
Several reasons can be given for not getting spring fever, but there are also arguments in its favor. And
since arguments lead to war! let's skip the whole thing. No one wants to fight when spring is in the air.

WITH THE ARRIVAL of warm weather, athletes all over the country are forsaking stuffy gymnasiums to frolic in the out-of-doors. Most of the winter sports made their last stand yesterday as the state high school tournaments at Emporia, Hutchinson, and Salina; the N.C.A.A. playoffs at Kansas City and Madison, Wis.; and the A.A.U. championships at Denver were completed. Only a few scattered track meets and the N.C.A.A. national championship game at Kansas City Saturday night remain on the indoor slate.
Meanwhile, spring sports will shift into high . . . Gwinn Henry's gridders have reached the scrimmage stage and fans who drop down to the practice field these days can expect to see some honest-to-goodness football . . . On the diamond, a green squad of baseballlers are acquiring polish and hustle under the direction of "Phog" Allen . . . Indoor track makes its curtain bow tomorrow night at the A. A. U. meet in Kansas City and almost any day the thinclads will emerge from the shelter of the indoor track under the stadium and appear on the outdoor oval . . . The tennis team takes to the courts this week while the golfers are already touring the links . . . And in organized houses, intramural softball teams are taking shape on paper.
Bill Beven, Jayhawker vaulter and co-captain of the track team, is coaching track at Oread High School and claims to have several excellent prospects on his squad . . . Jayhawk infielders who are victims of bad hops on the rough diamond refer to it as "Hogan's Brickyard."
FROM FOREIGN FIELDS: Texas University's baseballers believe in starting the season the hard way . . . Their first game was with the Boston Bees . . . Mound candidates include Udell Moore, who played basketball against Kansas this winter, and Beefus Bryan, pole vaulter of Kansas Relays fame . . .

Compete With Stars In AAU Carnival
By ALAN HOUGHTON
A field of stars, led by four world record holders, is set for another attack on old marks in the Missouri Valley indoor track meet in the Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City tomorrow night, Bill Hargiss, chairman of the Missouri Valley track committee, said todav.
Fred Wolecott, holder of both the 60-yard indoor low and high hurdles world's records, will compete in both events. Marsh Farmer, who has tied Wolcott's high hurdle mark and has beaten
him once this year, will offer Rice competition in the highs.
In the pole vault Earl Meadows,world's champion leads a star-studded field.
John Borican, who holds the world's records in the 600 and 1000 yard runs, will enter those two events in Kansas City.
A special mite feature will have four entrants. Walter Mehl, the outstanding miler of 1941, John Munski, Big Six title holder, Ray Harris, Big Six record holder in the 2-mile, and Rayburn Gordon of St. Louis will vie for honors.
Gregory Rice who has not been defeated in the 2-mile for 2 years, has not sent in his entry blank and it is no known yet whether he will compete in the special two mile race.
For the Kansas City high schools there will be four special events, a 60-yard dash and an 800-yard relay for each city.
Compete Unattached
In the 23 events of the meet will be about 200 participants. Universities and colleges of the Missouri Valley are sending their men unattached to abide by conference rules. Missouri, Kansas, Kansas State, and most of the teachers' colleges of Kansas and Missouri have sent in entries.
Fifteen members of the University of Kansas track squad are entering the meet unattached.
They are, Bill Beven, John Michener, and Jim Cordell in the pole vault; Don Pollom, Fred Eberhardt, Orlando Epp, and Ken Hamilton in the mile relay; Al Poznik, Clarence Miller, Don Thompson, and Dick Edwards in the two mile relay; Ralph Schaake and Larry Finney in the shot put; J. R. Jones in the broadump; and Norman Sanneman in the high jump.
Surprise
★★★★
Fencers Arrive
When the Kansas City University fencing team arrived on the campus Friday night, the Jayhawker fencers were taken by surprise. Coach James H. Raport had not received an acceptance of his invitation to the Knasas City team for the meet, but he quickly rounded up a squad. The women fencers were not to be found, but Raport found enough of the men's team to subdue the Kansas Citians 6-3. Haven Glassmire swept his three matches, William Belt took two out of three, and Fred Lawson won one out of three. Kansas City fencers were Mehman, Lassiter, Hattaway, De Cloud, and Toole.
The meet will require at least two days to complete and possibly three, Elbel said. He called attention to a new regulation which allows each organization to enter one member of the freshman swimming team provided he is a member of that orgnaization. Other freshman members of the swimming team may compete unattached.
The men's spring intramural program gets under way Tuesday with the annual swimming meet, Dr. E R. Elbel, director of intramural athletics, announced yesterday.
Swimming Meet Entries Due Tomorrow
This year's meet will see a new champion crowned. Since the Galloping Dominoes, who won the title last year with 114 points, are not competing. The Newman club will be a strong contender, however with ex-Dominoes in their membership. Last year the Sigma Chi's won second with 53 points, and the Phi Delts were third with 48.
The events are: 300-yard medley relay, 50-yard breast stroke, 100-yard dash, 50-yard back stroke diving, 100-yard back stroke, diving, 100-yard back yard relay.
Entries for the swimming meet are due tomorrow. The meet starts at 4:30 Tuesday and swimming suits are required.

Prospects for a winning tennis team this year suffered a blow when Howard Engleman, number one singles player last year, became ineligible for intercollegiate after participating in the national A. A. U. basketball tournament. With Engleman out, Conrad Voelker is the only returning letterman.
To date, 18 players have reported to Prof. R. S. Howey, newly appointed tennis coach, for practice. The candidates have been working out this week in Robinson gym, but will practice outside as soon as the outdoor courts are put in shape.
Netmen Report To Coach Howey
Howey said yesterday that the team will compete in a round robin with other Big Six teams this year. Before, the tennis championship had been determined by an elimination contest.
Tennis candidates are Conrad Voelker, William Howard, Walter Cook, Bob Trump, Charles Gudger, Eldridge King, Lloyd Heiberg Duane Smith, Francis Domingo, Bill Mathews, Bob Meredith, Paul Diegel, Raymond Blair, Eugene Cook, Clifford Nordstrom, Bill Smith, Byron Carkey, and Ben Matassarin.

Large Squad Trys Out For Baseball
Only one regular returns from the Kansas team which finished in the cellar last year and experienced players are at a premium.
A total of 46 candidates have signified their intentions of trying out for the baseball team and 30 to 40 have been turning out for practice every night, "Phog" Allen, head coach, said yesterday. Allen plans to carry about half of that squad as his first team.
"We have a huge rebuilding job ahead of us," says Allen, "but we are going to give the fans a fighting team, with the emphasis on playing a college brand of baseball." Ed Holl Returns
Five 1940 lettermen and one 1939 letter winner comprise the nucleus around which Allen will build his ball club. Ineligible last spring, but back in the faculty's good graces now is Ed Hall, regular catcher in 1939
From last year's team return Forrest "Knute" Kresie, pitcher and jack of all trades; John Burge, pitcher; Ramie Beims, outfielder; "Red" Thompson, first baseman; and Milo Munsinger, third baseman. Kresie was the only regular of the five.

95 Celebrate Burdick Dinner
Ninety-five students and alumni helped Dr. William L. Burdick celebrate his eighty-first birthday at the annual Burdick Day dinner last night in the Kansas Room of the Memorial Union building.
Walter A. Huxman, ex-governor of Kansas and now a judge of the United States circuit court, spoke concerning changes in the practice of law before the court as seen by a judge of the court. Justice William A. Smith of the Kansas Supreme Court also spoke at the banquet.
Dr. Burdick talked to the students and alumni. F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law, introduced the guests. Ernest Deines, third year law student, was toast-master.
Last year the law students decided to dedicate their annual banquet to their beloved professor. Formerly referred to as Law day, the event was renamed Burdick day.
In warm-up debates for the Missouri Valley debate tournament to be held on the Hill this week, University teams debated before Garnett high school and Iola junior college Friday morning, Humboldt high school Friday afternoon, and before the Humboldt Kiwanis club Friday night.
Debate Teams Practice Friday

Life Saving Class Meets Tuesday
All persons planning to enroll in the water safety school to be conducted by William T. Raney, field representative of the American Red Cross, April 14 to 18, should see James H. Raport, physical education instructor, at once.
Only holders of senior Red Cross life saving certificates are eligible to attend the school, Raport said. A preliminary meeting will be held in room 203 of Robinson gymnasium at 7:30 Tuesday for persons interested in taking the training. At this time a schedule will be arranged for the nine hour water safety instructors' course, which is open to both men and women.
Lawrence Water Supply Studied
A report of groundwater conditions in this area by the Kansas and Federal Geological Surveys may be the basis for an improved water basis supply for Lawrence.
S. W. Lohman, Federal Geologist in charge of groundwater investigation in Kansas, made the report, resulting from investigations during last fall and winter, to city officials Tuesday.
The surveys investigated at the request of city officials the possibility of developing a groundwater supply for Lawrence to augment or replace the existing surface water supply.
Seven Students Attend Meeting In Kansas City
The action was prompted by a near-shortage of city water which occurred last August because of an excessive turbid condition of the Kaw river. The bad taste of the drinking water last fall due to algae in the river also showed a necessity for a different water source.
Seven University students majoring in dietetics and three faculty members went to Kansas City Friday to attend the annual meeting of the Kansas Dietetic Association held at the Hotel Muehlbach.
Students making the trip were: Dorothy Howe, Ruth Mercer, Marynell Rowland, college seniors; Mary Morrow, Leta Bruchmiller, Katherine Stinson, college junior$^4$; and Millie Regiel, graduate.
Miss Hermina Zipple, president of the association and Miss Kathryn Tissue, and Miss Corinne Solt, instructors in the department of Home Economics, also made the trip.
Tryouts for the annual K-Club play will be held in Robinson gym it 7.30 Tuesday night.

A LITTLE LEARNING By JOHN W. ASHTON Professor of English
Universal education may be a great danger or perhaps I should say, a casual, half-education may be a great danger. In the stress in recent years (a stress magnified by the present emergency) on the need for "practical," technical training, we have tended more and more to lose sight of this hazard, or if we have thought of it, it has been in terms of the individual. Some years ago in his very interesting projection of things-to-come in "Brave New World" Aldous Huxley described the processes of education in a perfectly dictated society.
Microphones are put under children's pillows and all the while they sleep they are "educated" into the proper beliefs and attitudes by the insistent dinning of doctrine into their subconscious minds. As a result, as the individuals grew up they were perfect unquestioning obedient members of the class to which they belonged, but they were not free citizens in a democracy.
We often naively assume that education can be measured in terms of literacy, that if a person is taught to read and write all is well not only with him but with the nation as well. Presumably if we could only come to a state of 100 per cent literacy for the country, all our troubles would vanish. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
The problem is particularly serious in a democracy like our own where the manipulation of large masses of public opinion to form pressure groups not only in legislative matters but in social and economic situations as well has become an essential part of the system of life. These groups thrive on the ability of their members to read but not to think, to listen without judgment, to accept uncritically whatever is told them in familiar symbols.
In short, it is not the ability to read that is of final importance, but the question of how one reads and what he reads. Teach a boy that Hitler is infallible and give him only "Mein Kampf" and similar works to read and he becomes a perfect party member. Babbitt you will remember (or does anyone remember Babbitt any more?) read his daily paper and from it got all the opinions he had, except incidental additions from his Ph.D. neighbor and from the preacher at the church which he attended. And all this was accepted quite uncritically, without any consciousness of the inconsistencies to which these views often led him.
Under the conditions of modern life, people may safely be taught to read only if they are taught with open, critical, questioning minds. Thus, he alone is educated who has been trained to see beyond the exigencies of the immediate occasion, who is capable of harmonizing new ideas with old ones, who develops a resiliency and toughness of mind that guards him against the easy catchwords of demagoguery.
It is something of a paradox that the very institution which we have thought of as a bulwark of democracy, universal education, may easily instead, unless it is directed to more than immediately "practical" and technical ends, become the instrument for the establishment of dictatorial powers. It was never more true than now that a little learning is a dangerous thing.

The Book Shelf
"Under the Greenwood Tree or The Millstock Quire" by Thomas Hardy, illustrated by Clare Leighton, edition of Macmillan Co., N.Y., 237 pages, $3.50.
My grandmother, who lived in the Kentucky hills and smoked a pipe, used to say that she never liked to read books because they didn't have any pictures. Before and since her time, a good many people have not been attracted by books merely because of the dull and drab bindings on the outside and the unrelieved expanses of fine print inside. Perhaps taking a hint from the almost unbelievable success of certain magazines replete with pictures, book publishers are now beginning to pay increased attention to the attractiveness of the formats of their books.
The most recent and one of the best examples of the book which is beautiful in its physical characteristics as well as in its contents proved classic by time is the Maemillan company's edition of Thomas Hardy's "Under the Greenwood Tree," illustrated by Clare Leighton.
The book is, as the preface suggests, "a fairly true picture, at first hand, of the personages, ways, and customs" which were common in the villages of Southern England about 1820-30. The love story of the unstable Fancy Day, who proves fascinating to two men and conceals from one her promise to the other, and the struggle of a village choir to retain the time-honored orchestra and keep out the intruding organ—these two themes are interwoven and appear against a vivid and strongly painted rural background.
It is almost the only one of Hardy's writings which does not contain a tragedy. And it is no small part of the pleasure with which the novel can be read, and read again, that it does not end in a grave. This idyllic character, suggested by the Shakespearean title, is made capital of by the planners of this edition which is a handsome piece of bookmaking indeed.
Most striking of all are the dramatically beautiful wood engravings by the British artist Clare Leighton. As chapter headings and endings, and as full page illustrations, over 60 of these sharply black and white cuts embody graphically Hardy's power of conveying the mood of outer nature and his monumental descriptions of people.
The cuts are not quite so blithe perhaps as the book would warrant, but their powerful contrasts of light and shade make them the more impressive therefore. The old ways, old music, good cider, country dancing, racy and flavorsome speech of Hardy are all captured in darkly statuesque way by Miss Leighton.
This edition of "Under the Greenwood Tree," then, commemorating the centenary of the author's birth, is an excellent volume to serve as a gift. But is it a volume that would be even better on one's own shelves. For, because of the great pictorial beauty of the engravings, the reader can with even more pleasure than usual revel in the country setting, the country humors, the rich and fragrant air of the recent but irrecoverable past which this novel so satisfingly presents—Bill Read.
ROCK CHALK TALK
The other day a delivery boy breezed into the Chi Omega house with an order. "Where does this go?" he asked two girls standing in the hall.
"You might buzz upon third," suggested one of the girls, intending that he use the house phone buzzer.
But the lad thought "buzz" meant to run, not walk, to someplace. He dashed up the stairway before he could be stopped, and got up to third to try to deliver the order.
Pink and blue were the quizzes presented by Miss Beulah Morrison to a class last week. Although the printer had made a mistake, Miss Morrison decided everything was all right—it was child psychology.
The hot water heater at Rock Chalk Co-op went on a rampage the other night. Ready for any emergency, Everton Doom opened the hot water faucet, let the steam blow, and cried, "Woo, woo, wooooo, have your tickets ready, folks!"
Dorothy Curtis was a contestant in the intramural swimming meet this week, and had to choose two optional dives. She announced that she would do a barrel-roll, which turned out to be her own original name for an ordinary front flip roll—which is not so ordinary for prairie girls in Kansas.
Five men at 1041 Tennessee were moved recently to take a nip out of a bottle of hair tonic because of attractive ingredients mentioned on the label. They praised the delicate flavor, went on to sample everything on the dresser, including skin bracer, aftershave lotion, shampoo, and shaving cream. For results, consult Richard Snyder, Richard Epps, Lloyd Woodburn, Bill Fenney, or Jimmy Draper.
Flash! (Or maybe we mean flashy.)
Equipped with brushes and orange and red paint, Ken Nicolay and Bill Perdue were seen anointing one model A Ford fit for a circus. It was the day before spring, which may explain.

$1.82 a Pound For Dandelions
Students Dig Roots to Make Taraxacum
With backs breaking, pharmacy juniors have been dandelion digging this week—not to try to jump the gun on the April 2 dandelion digging spree, but to continue the annual practice of the pharmacy school to make dandelion roots into preparations which make the little weeds worth $1.82 a pound.
Pharmacy students have been digging taraxacum for 21 years, said D. H. Spencer, professor of pharmacy, Taraxacum, derived
said D. H. Spencer, professor of from the dandelion root, is an officially approved drug which serves as a blood purifier and general tonic.
Each pharmacy junior gathers three pounds of roots in the spring, which in the fall of his senior year he makes into various forms of the drug.
During the past week students have been out with long-bladed shovels called "sharpshooters," designed to cut down six to eight inches to get the entire dandelion root. They are now ready to dry the roots for a week.
Once there was in Lawrence a dandelion tonic factory. George Leis made the tonic in a three-story building on Massachusetts avenue.
Pharmacy students suggest that, if their methods were followed, and the $1.82 a pound price demanded, Dandelion Day might be a profitable enterprise for the University.

Littooy Announces Dandelion Dance News of University Holiday Spreads
Captains In Conference
The all-out attack on the pestiferous dandelion is receiving more than local publicity.
At a meeting of the team captains yesterday afternoon in the Memorial Union building, Chairman Charles Wright, fine arts junior, presented a letter from members of a chemical manufacturing concern in Chicago who had read about Dandelion Day in Chicago papers.
According to Sergeant William Kollender, assistant instructor of military science, the students are ready to put something into the beautification of the campus, instead of taking something out of it. He said he had arranged with poultry houses to present each student who does not do his part with a white feather,
They had, the letter said, a much more effective method of killing dandelions than digging. They suggested that if a certain kind of lye were used, extermination would be two and one-fourth times as rapid. To Aid Campus Appearance
A method was suggested whereby those who work and those who only attend the festivities in the afternoon may be distinguished. Captains will wear red tags, team members blue tags, and those who are found without a tag may be presented with a yellow one.
An instruction sheet given to the captains, said that the purposes of (continued to page eight)
Medical Students To Use Burdick Book
William L. Burdick, professor of law, has written a book, "The Law Relating to Physicians and Surgeons," which will be used by students in the University School of Medicine at Kansas City, Kan.
Patriotic Sundae
Yum Yum!
The book is a collection of Burdick's lectures upon legal topics of interest to physicians and surgeons. The lectures were delivered in past years to senior classes of the University School of Medicine.
St. Louis—(UP) —The newest thing in ice cream concoctions which will tick'lhe the palates of several million steaming Americans this summer is the "All-American Sundae."
It's a delectable missegenation of chopped red cherries, marshmallows and blueberries. Members of the merchandising classes field here by the Ice Cream Merchandising Institute, Inc., sampled the patriotic mixture.
Fritzi Finds Future
Student Starts Shop
Fritzi Meyn, college freshman, has been appointed manager of the Virginia May gift shop in the Eldridge hotel building by her father Fritz Meyn. Lawrence businessman, who announced purchase of the shop yesterday.
Miss Meyn will continue in school and will arrange her classes so that she may be at the shop each afternoon. Her mother, Mrs. Fritz Meyn, and her sister, Mrs. Paul Smart, will assist her in the business.
Miss Meyn plans to finish the present semester at school and then devote her time exclusively to the management of the shop. The new owner plan to redeem

ate the shop and to add to the stock.
University students will have the opportunity to aid in the Bundles for Britain drive according to plans made at a meeting of the Lawrence branch of the organization last night in the Chamber of Commerce office.
Meyn purchased the shop from Mrs. Betty Osborn and Miss Josephine Sublette who have operated it for the past three years.
Ten student organizations represented at the meeting were Alpha Phi Omega, national service fraternity; Men's Pan Hellenic council; Women's Pan-Hellenic council; M. S. C.; W.S.G.A.; Jay Janes; Y.W.C.A.; Mortar Board; House Presidents' Council; and Corbin Hall.
Discussing changes in the practice of law before the circuit court as seen by a judge of the court, Walter A. Huxman, former governor of Kansas and now judge of the United States circuit court spoke to 95 law students, alumni, and guests at the Burdick Day banquet held Saturday evening in honor of the eighty-first birthday of William L. Burdick, professor of law, in the Memorial Union building.
Miss Cleo Benninghoff, secretary of the organization in Kansas City, spoke on the work of the organization and the ways in which students as well as townspeople may contribute.
Knitting sweaters, socks, and mittens was one of the chief projects mentioned. Mrs.C.J.Posey, chairman of the Lawrence knitting committee, reported 20 volunteer knitters from among the townpeople. Several girls in the Gamma Phi and Kappa houses are also knitting for Britain.

Swing Out Friday Night
Dean Stouffer is a member of the executive committee of the association.
Probably with an aching conscience after postponing the Junior Prom, Fred Littioy, varsity dance manager, this afternoon gave couples who had planned a prom date something to do this Friday night by announcing a gala Dandelion Dance.
The feature of the dance will be a battle of Hill bands with Clyde Byson's boys on one side of the ballroom of the Memorial Union building and Clayton Harbur's band on the other. A trio composed of Loren Miller, Art Wolfe, and Grier Stewart will sing to the accompaniment of the bands.
Tables will be placed at the north end of the ballroom and cokes will be dispensed during the evening.

Coronado's Entrada and the Kansas Cavalcade will be staged in Memorial stadium June 4, 5, and 6, in connection with the Seventy-fifth Anniversary Celebration, Prof. Leonard Axe, chairman of the operating committee, announced today.
It is the largest show of its kind ever staged in Kansas, having scenery and costumes purchased with money appropriated by the government. Its mammoth 300-foot stage, built of steel, measures 35 feet in height. Mounted on rubber rollers, parts of the scenery can be shifted to represent mountains, river valleys, and plains, as the program calls for them.
The pageant will reproduce the trek of Coronado and his band from Old Mexico through the Southwest to Kansas, depicting Indian fights, the efforts of Father Padilla to convert the savages to the Christian faith, and many of the hardships of the journey. A pageant of the de-

where ever was a doubt in the minds of Kansas music lovers that Russell L. Wiley is one of America's leading band masters, it was dispelled once and for all when the University Band presented its thirty-fourth annual spring concert in Hoch auditorium last night.
Playing 15 scheduled numbers and the University "Alma Mater" as an encore, the band easily and definitely impressed its audience of 3,000 that "here is a fine band with an outstanding director, and they are giving us an evening full of high-class music."
Second only to his directing skill was the evidence of Wiley's ability as a teacher. Arthur Harris, graduate student, and Richard Tippin, fine arts senior, directed the Band through two numbers in a vigorous and strictly professional manner. Still further signs of teaching genius and long hours of patient practice were the solo appearances of Leo Horacek, fine arts senior, on the cornet; Robert Forman, fine arts senior, oboist;
and Leslie Sperling, fine arts senior,
trombonist.
Most attractive and amusing number of the evening was "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" (Bennett). The narrative moved swiftly, and even a person who had never heard the legend could well imagine the sequence of events as interpreted by the music.
Complete in everything but the odors of rose-buds, the program added a sensational visual spectacle
of baton twirling to the already excellent music offering. Sarlena Sherman, college sophomore, with her electric baton, and Robert Hampel, senior engineer, with a fluorescent baton, performed before the audience as the auditorium was thrown into total darkness while Tippin directed the band in an accompaniment. The whirling batons went through many an uncanny caper, but it was too dark to see how they did it.
The final section of the program was made up of more serious music.
It opened with Victor Herbert's overture to 'The Rose of Algeria' which was followed by the Andantino movement from the Fourth Symphony of Tschaikowsky, and 'Sorcerer's Apprentice', the most pretentious offering of the evening in which the band showed real viril tuosity.
It is enough to say that a good band, under a good director, provided a Kansas audience with an evening of excellent music.

Sports-Gab by Gabe Parks
NOTES ON the Missouri Valley A.A.U. indoor track meet at Kansas City last night: Ray Harris and Don Thompson, K Club distance men, made a remarkable showing in races against nationally advertised stars . . . Harris edged past Wisconsin's Walter Mehl in the final ten feet of the mile run to take second behind John Munski, while Thompson followed John Borican to the tape in the 1000-yard run.
BORICAN, world champion in the 600 and 1000-yard events, wore two complete warm-up costumes as he limbered up. . . The big grimming Negro shuffled in front of the judges' stand with six-inch steps, chatting with spectators before each race, but after the starters' gun sounded, he waited for nobody.
EARL MEADOWS, Dick Ganslen, and Kenneth Dills drew gasps of admiration from the crowd with their spectacular pole vaulting. . . The slender stars passed until the bar reached 13 feet while Bill Beven, John Michener, and Jim Cordell, K Club entries, held the spotlight. . . But at 13 feet 6 inches, only the champions remained and all three cleared 14 feet on their first attempts. . . After the meet, Meadows told a group of fans, "If you can get your mind over the bar, you'll make it."
BILL HARGISS, chairman of the Missouri Valley Indoor Games committee, had a busy evening directing the meet and keeping an eye on the K Club athletes. . . Ed Elbel was behind the p.a. system mike and James Report was assistant scorer. . . Gwinn Henry, Vic Hurt, Wayne Replogle, and Harry Lansing, the football coaches, got an eyeful of some husky Kansas City high school athletes.
FRED WOLCOTT was hampered by a leg injury and although he won the high hurdles, his time was slow. (continued to more five)
Harris, K-Clubbers Place in AAU Valley Meet
The K club, University athletes competing unattached, made a strong showing in the Missouri Valley A.A.U. indoor track meet held in the Kansas City Municipal auditorium last night in which national and world champions led an assault on meet records.
Leading the K Club entrants were Ray Harris and Don Thompson who scored upsets in the Invitational mile and 1000 yard open to place ahead of favored stars.
Harris renewed an old rivalry with John Munski, the former Missouri runner, but finished second to the M Club entrant, but nipped Walter Mehl, the former Wisconsin star, at the tape.
Borican Approaches Record
Thompson established himself as the local champ in the 1000 yard run by beating everybody but John Borican, the world's record holder.
In placing first in this race Borican scored his second victory of the evening. Previously he had won the 600 yard open in 1:12, approaching his record time of 1:10.2.
J. R. Jones, K Club broadjumper, clear 22 feet $3 \frac{1}{4}$ inches in the finals of that event last night, but two marks established in the preliminaries beat his best effort.
In the open mile relay, a K Club team composed of Don Pollom, Fred Eberhardt, Orlando Epp, and Ken Hamilton finished third to the M Club and Manhattan.
Two K Club Fourths
Other K Club entrants showed up well, but failed to place. Pollom finished fourth in the 60 yard low hurdles and the 2 mile relay quartet finished fourth in its event. Members of the team were Clarence Miller, Al Poznick, Dick Edwards, and Thompson.
Earl Meadows, pole vault world record holder indoors at 14 feet $7 \frac{1}{2}$ inches. Dick Ganslen, former national champion, and Ken Dills, former collegiate champ, all cleared 14 feet. At 14 feet 4 inches Dills dropped out. A new world's record of 14 feet $7 \frac{1}{2}$ inches was attempted by Meadows and Ganslen but both failed.

Kansas Relays Began As Outland's Dream
Thompson Shine
By ORLANDO EPP
Be sure to mark April 19 on your calendar.
For on that day the Kansas Relays, one of the most colorful track and field carnivals in the country, makes its nineteenth appearance in Memorial stadium. $ \textcircled{*} $
It was April 23, 1923, that a star-studded field first participated in the now famous track event. And it all began as the dream of Dr. John H. Outland. Outland, whose home is now in Kansas City, Mo., came to the University in 1893 as a freshman. In his first year of varsity football competition, he lettered as a fullback and a tackle.
But in 1895 he transferred to the University of Pennsylvania and during his student days there, the Penn Relays were founded. It was then that Outland conceived his idea for such an event in the middle west.
In 1920, Doctor Outland returned to the University, and approached Dr. Forrest C. Allen with his idea. Allen was enthusiastic. In the spring of that year, plans were formulated for the beginning of the Kansas Rea-ays and made effective April 23 1923.
Response to the first relays was gratifying. The entire membership of the Missouri Valley conference was present; the Big Ten was represented; several teams from the Southwestern conference sent entries; and a team from Pennsylvania came to the initial performance.
The Kansas squad, coached by Karl Schlademan, won both the 440 yard relay and the half mile relay, also placing high in the other four relay events.
Henry Outlines 1941 Football Prospects
In starting the Kansas Relays, Allen made radio speeches, distributed stickers, and printed a 62-page program in order to promote interest.
Today the Kansas Relays ranks among such famous outdoor track meets as the Penn, Texas, Drake, Colorado, and Illinois Relays.
Better and more deceptive.
That's how Gwinn Henry describes next year's Jayhawker eleven.
If Ralph Miller is available, Kansas will have six capable passers. Holdovers are Marvin Vandaveer and Irven Hayden with Freshmen Ray Evans, Ed Vandaveer, "Tex" Niblo, and Don Ettinger coming up.
Only one regular end, Hub Ulrich, is returning to catch passes. Other wingmen are Ralph Schaake, Bob O'Neil, Paul Turner, Bob Hagen, Dick Wilson, and Herb Curran. The backfield also has a fine crew of pass receivers in Denzil Gibbens, Don Pollom, Greg Studer, Harlan Altman, and Ed Linquist. Fullback will be taken care of by Ralph Childs, Etinger, and Linquist.
Veteran tackles will be W. F, Jack,
Jim Holloway, and Ross Relph with
Grant Hunter, Jim Zimmerman, Bill
Kern, Warren Hodges, and Frank
Baker in reserve.
Gap in Line
Fromising freshman guards are Gene Long, Joe Crawford, Harold Van Slyck, and John Brownell. Center candidates are Walt Sheridan, Dale Lowery, and Bob Githens.
Henry has a big hole to fill in the center of the line with Don Pierce Quido Massare, Jay Kern, and Herb Hartman missing. Returning varsity men at guard are Bob Fluker, Don Hill, and Monte Merkel, who has been shifted from tackle.
Short on Reserves
As in seasons past, Henry's greatest worry will be his shortage of reserve material in spite of an excellent crop of freshmen.
Last Thursday, the squad held its first hard scrimmage. No injuries have cropped up yet and Henry plans to put the team through another stiff scrimmage Thursday or Friday.
Phi Gams Trim Sig Alphs
The Phi Gamma Delta volleyball team, following in the footsteps of their basketball playing brothers, advanced to the quarter-final round of the intramural volleyball play-offs last night, with a 2-1 victory over Sigma Alpha Epsilon.
The next oponent of the Phi Gam's will be the Phi Psi team. The winner of this match will play the Delta Chi's in the semi-finals. The Faculty team has already advanced to the finals.
'Phog' Calls For Hitters
"I want hitters!"
That, in a nutshell, expresses the needs of Dr. F. C. Allen, head baseball coach, concerning his team.
Kansas opens its baseball season against Kansas State in a two game series, April 7 and 8, on the home field.
"I know that there are men in the University who are eligible and who are good hitters," Allen said. "But for some reason they have not reported for practice."
The Big-Six schedule:
April 7-8, Kansas State at Lawrence
April 17-18, Oklahoma at Norman.
April 25-26, Iowa State at Ames.
May 5-6, Missouri at Lawrence.
May 9-10, Missouri at Columbia.
May 12-13, Nebraska at Lincoln.
May 23-24, Kansas State at Manhattan.
May 26-27, Iowa State at Lawrence.
Allen has named the following players as a tentative first team:
Al Wabaunsee, Bob Allen, Knute Kresie, Allen Nipper, Ed Hall, Ramie Beims, John Burge, Steve Meade, John Krum, Bob Homer, Elmo Maiden, Kenneth Dunn, Red Thompson, Dick Pierce, Dean Martin, Milo Munsinger, Bill Atwell, Jerald Boynton, Virgil Wise, Eugene Alford, Larry Smith, and T. P. Hunter.
Table Tennis
★★★
Kansas Is Fifth
The University table tennis team placed fifth in 25 teams at the National Intercollegiate Table Tennis tournament held in Canton, Mn. on Friday and Saturday. Culver-Stockton won the tourney.
Kansas entered two teams with Perry Petterson and Joe Davison the "A" team and Bud Heiberg and David Holmes, the "B" duo. The high spot of the tournament, as far as Kansas was concerned, was the battle Petterson and Davison put up against Illinois before dropping a 2-3 decision.

Cupid Takes Over Reno; Divorce Trade Drops
Reno, Nev.—(UP)—This summer, if you believe in statistics, you can expect Reno to be the city of June brides instead of marital fireworks.
Reno completed 1940 in fine fettle, oldtimers said, pointing to the fact that marriages exceeded divorces by 9 to 1.
Gone are the days when 128 divorces were granted in one day. The average now is about eight, with daily marriages averaging around 72.
Judges were busy marrying people instead of divorcing them because of the California three-day waiting period between getting the license and being married, the new California medical examination law, and the selective service act.
But the marriage business is not what has given Reno its "lines" in plays and movies as the world's divorce capital. The marriages are chiefly of California couples, just young people, not "big names," not in the social register.
During the year there moved through the Reno divorce court some 2,250 dissatisfied husbands and wives, while downstairs in the marriage bureau, there were more than 1,850 couples (3,700 persons and Reno's population is only 21,000) who took the oath of allegiance to home and fireside.
Now Reno's divorce business, because other states have adopted Nevada's lead in easy divorce laws, is apparently ending in many marriages.
The county clerk and the judges smile. Each marriage brings a $2 fee to the county, a fee from $2 to $100 to the marrying judge.
Tulsa Alumni To Meet
University alumni who now live in Tulsa or vicinity, will meet tonight in Tulsa.
Gibson Relates Experiences To Psychology Club
Telling of his work on the University campus the past two years, Dr. E. T. Gibson, professor of psychiatry at the University School of Medicine in Kansas City, spoke to the psychology club at its regular meeting yesterday afternoon. Gibson conducts a student consulting program every Tuesday afternoon at Watkins Memorial hospital.
In his talk yesterday Gibson described a number of the problems brought to him by students. He stressed the fact that the service should be extended for there is enough need on this campus for a full time consultant rather than one once a week.
About 60 members of the psychology club attended the meeting.
Women Riflers To Fire Thursday
A shoulder to shoulder match will be fired by the women's rifle team from 7 to 10 o'clock Thursday night, with awards given to the winners by the Douglas county rifle and pistol club. The match is open to all women who signed up for women's rifle team.
CBS
Fredda Gibson was singing with a small band at a college prom when Bandleader Richard Himber summoned her to New York to join his orchestra. At present, she is heard with Jack Leonard and Lynn Murray's orchestra on the new radio program, "Meet the Music," Sundays over the Columbia network.

Stockton Discusses Economic Changes
Frank T. Stockton, dean of the School of Business, spoke on the changes in the United States industrial economy since 1917 at a meeting of the Lawrence Rotary club yesterday.
Unlike in 1917-18, Stockton said, we now must have an uninterrupted flow of certain metals for steel alloys necessary to continue business as well as wage a war.

Ottawa Musicians Present Memorial Tribute to Skilton
The Skilton Music club, of Ottawa, presented a concert last night in tribute to the late C. S. Skilton. The club, formed several years ago, was named in Skilton's honor because of the composer-teacher's great interest in the formation of music clubs in Kansas.
Miss Irene Peabody, associate professor of voice, appeared on the program singing "Zoo Fantastique" (words by Lillian White Spencer) with Winifred Hill, fine arts senior, playing the piano accompaniment.
Powell Weaver, Kansas City organist who appeared on the Skilton memorial program here Sunday, also played for the Ottawa club.

PROF. E. F. ENGEL
To most freshmen in the University, their college work stretches before them in a seemingly endless expanse. But how long is 57 years of college work? It's a lifetime.
Prof. E. F. Engel has spent 57 years—a lifetime—in the service of the University. For 49 of those 57 years he has taught in the department of German. For six years he was Registrar of the University.
Noted teachers all over the world have praised Professor Engel's laboratory method which is to give the students all the materials of the language, classified vocabularies, installments of grammar, idioms and phrases of grammar, etc. These materials are written down by the students in specially prepared notebooks, and then used to express their own ideas from the very beginning.
Professor Engel was born in Bethlehem, Pa., and spent the early years of his life in Michigan, but he has been a Kansan since 1878 when his parents moved to Cherryvale.
A fine scholar, Professor Engel, received his master's degree from Harvard and his doctorate from the University of Chicago, after receiving an A.B. from here. He also did work on the doctor's degree at the University of Marburg in Germany.
Professor Engel's work in radio was once so popular that he wrote a column in the "Modern Language Journal," official organ of the National Association of Modern Language Teachers.
To the world, Professor Engel was known chiefly by his laboratory method of teaching German and by his pioneering work in teaching modern languages over the radio.
In 1935 Professor Engel said that his hobbies were raising a family (he has six children, all graduates of the University), gardening and flowers, and travel. In that year it was estimated that he had had taught 5,000 students in his classes.
TUESDAY, MARCH 25, 1941
At age 75, after spending more than half his life at the University, Professor E. F. Engel will retire in June. The Kansan joins his thousands of former students in wishing him hearty, happy days for the years to come.
In 1842, almost 100 years ago, the poet, Tennyson, envisioned a world where
" . . . the war-drum throbbed no longer, and the battle flags were furled
HUGE UNION
In the parliament of man, the federation of the world.
There the common sense of most shall hold a frettful realm in awe,
And the kindly earth shall slumber, lapt in universal law."
Ninety-seven years later, in July, 1939, an organization called Federal Union was formed to promote Clarence Streit's plan for a union of 15 democracies, as proposed in his book, "Union Now." According to "Time" magazine, last week Federal Union had 60 chapters in the United States; 250 in England.
Streit modeled his plan after the Constitution of the United States, and believes that national sovereignty is responsible for much of the disorder in the world today. If the states belonged to a federal union with each state retaining its rights and differences, the world as a whole would be as much better off as the United States was after the adoption of its constitution.
At the outset Streit would include in his union the United States, the United Kingdom,
Eire, New Zealand, Australia, Union of South Africa, and Canada. There would be an intercontinental, bicameral legislature, with one member in the senate from each state, and one representative for every 5,000,000 inhabitants. Under this scheme, the United States would have 27 votes, the rest only 22. As an executive head, this government would have Roosevelt and Churchill.
Americans, by their very nature, will not support the plan at present. They have an idea, right or wrong, that they are superior to any other nation in government, living scale, mode of life, and a thousand other ways. Federal Union may be a logical plan for the future, but for the present it appears that the nation's must continue to "... murmur, snarling at each other's heels."

No Comedy Here... Spring Brings Hobos
Now that spring is here again, it won't be many days until the housewives of Lawrence, and those in other towns and cities all over the country, will see a familiar figure at their back doors.
... Thru Lawrence
Fuzzy-faced, and grubby, will stand the f become an American institution. This figur ing eyes and the dirty out- stretched hand, is the American hobo.
Lawrence has not been plagued with any great number of hobos, but since it is in the center of the country and directly in the path of the east-west movement of the majority of the transients, we receive our full share. Travel by Train
Fuzzy-faced, and grubby, will stand the figure that has almost become an American institution. This figure, with the questioning eyes and the dirty out- $ ^{ \textcircled{4}} $
The greater majority of the transients, filtering into Lawrence from day to day, arrive by train, while the remainder come by way of the highways.
Long pictured as a comic, both on the screen and in fiction, the hobo nevertheless represents a serious situation and problem which the people of Lawrence have spent little energy to solve. True, he is given a place to sleep, a bite to eat, and even medical attention if necessary, but the hobo is passed on to the next town as soon as possible. This is the practice over the entire nation.
The transient has been overlooked in all large scale governmental relief projects, as well as local.
When transients, single or entire families, apply for aid. at the Salvation Army, for instance, they will be given bedding facilities for the night, breakfast in the morning, and even gas for their car so that they might continue on toward that "precious job."
There has been a steady increase in the number of family transients in recent years, according to the pamphlet, "The Genesis of Exodus," and this increase has been noticed by Mrs. Brigman, a member of the staff of the Salvation Army in Lawrence. She reports of numerous instances where the or-
organization helped families applying to them.
Lawrence has at least a pretense of laws which tend to discourage the habit of the hobo toward getting his living by the outstretched hand on the street. The police department reports that finding a bum on the street evidently begging, usually means a light stretch in the local bastille, at the end of which he will be escorted out of town.
The Salvation Army in Lawrence, which has been organized here for over fifty years, might well be considered as the leader in the field of local organizations devoted to the helping of destitute persons, and especially the hobo-transient. 600 A Year.
600 a Year
Mrs. Brigman finds that usually, the organization helps about six individuals a week, providing them with a bed, meals, and sometimes medical aid, with the stipulation that they move on to another town within forty-eight hours.
The facilities of the Army are limited, and any overflow of persons needing help, over that number which can be properly handled by them, must be referred to the police department which works in conjunction with the Salvation
Each applicant coming to them for aid is required to give information for the filling of a blank, which the Salvation Army files for future reference. These blanks are used both by the police, and in compiling government census reports. The files of the Salvation Army show that approximately 600 transients are helped by the organization yearly.

Why? She's pretty.
Floyd Koch and Joe Walters have recruited a new mascot for the Sig Ep house. She is a shapely clothing store dummy. At a formal christening the other night the boys dubbed her "Mabel."
On the University Girls' Glee club trip last week, Helen Edlin went into he poultry business.
In Washington she was presented two baby chickens by Jean Stouffer, Winifred Hill, Melva Good, and Alice Ann Jones. She named the all-black one "Rock" and the black one with white breast "Chalk."
At every bus stop on the trip Helen took the chicks out for a short drink. In Belleville the lady of the house where Helen and Thela Lehm stayed quartered Rock and Chalk on an old sweater in the basement. But when they came to Herington, the chickens were taken over by Helen's parents, who preferred college to chicken-raising for their daughter.

A date, spring, and a gnat spell a car in the ditch for Bill Hunzicker. The other afternoon he took Marjorie Owen for a ride. As they rolled along, a gnat (Bill says) flew into his eye, he turned to his date, and the next thing he knew he was in the ditch.
"Gnats," said Hunzicker.
She hadn't ridden very long. The horse wasn't very spry. Then they came to a fence. Mary Noll jumped off, more or less gracefully, to help him over.
But unexpectedly the horse, without further ado, jumped over the fence, dropping the saddle at Mary's feet. When last seen, Mary was trudging home, bewildered, dragging the saddle behind her.

happenings on the hill
When Ray Harris, Jayhawk track co-captain last year, ran the special mile at the Missouri Valley A.A.U. indoor meet in Kansas City last night, it began the fourth year of his feud with John Munski, former Missouri star. Through three seasons of varsity competition, the Munski-Harris duel has flared with Ray holding a slight edge in indoor competition but never winning an outdoor race from "Lone John."
Bob Johnson, education junior,
and Irven Hayden, education sophomore, attended the N.C.A.A. finals in Kansas City Saturday.
Dr. John Ise, professor of economics, will go to Kirksville, Mo., Friday, where he will deliver an address, "Some Implications of the Machine Age," at the banquet of the Missouri State Home Economics Association.
Warren Blair, college freshman entered Watkins Memorial hospital Saturday. He is being treated for an acute sore throat.
A potential trackman was thwarted in his attempts to be a star high jumper Saturday afternoon. Allan Ewing, college freshman, broke his right arm just above the wrist in attempting to clear the bar at 4 feet 10 inches. However, a small tragedy like this was not enough to stop Ewing. He had the arm set at Watkins Memorial hospital, got a fraternity brother to drive his car, and kept a date for that evening in spite of his obvious handicap.
Sue Johnston, college junior, attended the wedding announcement party of Ruth Creary and Clement Garrelts in McPherson Saturday. Miss Creary is a former student in the University, and Garrelts attended Kansas State.
Preggy Schroeder, Leavenworth was in Lawrence this weekend visiting her brother, Byron Schroeder, college junior.

2,000 Hear Skilton Memorial Program
A program in memory of the late Prof. C. S. Skilton, former dean of the School of Fine Arts, was presented before an audience of approximately 2,000 in Hoch auditorium Sunday afternoon.
The music program, composed entirely of Skilton's own compositions, was sponsored by the Lawrence Music club. The University Symphony Orchestra opened the program with the "Prelude to the Opera Electra," which was followed by the two Indian dances, the "Deer Dance," and "War Dance." Wilkins Sing Duet
Joseph and Marie Wilkins sang the duet from another of Skilton's operas, "The Day of Gayomair." They were accompanied by Ruth Orcutt, associate professor piano. Engineering Grads
The University string quartet, composed of Waldemar Geltch, first violin; Eugene Ninger, second violin; K. Kuersteiner, viola; and Raymond Stuhl, cello, played Skilton's "Quartet in B Minor."
Choir, Harpist Excel
The University women's choir, under the direction of Dean D. M. Swarthout, sang "Suffer Little Children." This number was highlighted by the harp playing of Elizabeth Griffith, fine arts sophomore.
Engineering Grads Receive Promotions
Powell Weaver, Kansas City organist, concluded the program with "The American Indian Fantasie."
Herbert L. Krauss, who was graduated from the University in 1939, has been appointed as a full-time instructor in the department of electrical engineering at Yale University, New Haven, Conn., effective this fall. He is at present working for a masters degree and teaching electrical courses at the New Haven Junior College night school.

ENTRADA---
velopment of Kansas is also included.
A pantomine cast of 500 persons from Lawrence and vicinity will present the show, supervised and coached by Jerry Cargill, of the Cargill Production company of New York. Cargill and a staff of skilled helpers will come to Lawrence several weeks in advance to recruit and train personnel. A special sound cast will be housed in a booth, and actors on the stage will act only in pantomime.
The stage will be lighted by 70 or 100 units of light totalling 100,000 watts.
For Pan-American Relations
The Entrada is intended to develop appreciation of early history and its importance to the United States in the desire for more free relations with the other American republics.
The Entrada was made possible through the efforts of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, which raised the money to underwrite the show. Headed by Fritz Meyn, the Chamber of Commerce Entrada committee will cooperate with the Seventy-fifth Anniversary entertainment committee, under the direction of Leslie Waters, assistant professor of economics.
Cargill will be in Lawrence Wednesday afternoon to meet with the Chamber of Commerce and members of the Seventy-fifth Anniversary operating committee to discuss the details of the program.
CAPTAINS CONFER--project are being provided by the National Defense council.
Dandelion Day are to get students acquainted with faculty members, and to attempt to rid the campus of dandelions. Digging will be from 9 a.m. until noon, and each student will bring his own tools.
Negotiations are under way with WREN to broadcast the crowning of the king and queen at 4 p.m. Wright said yesterday.
Not All-City Holiday
Dandelion Day will not be an all-city holiday, as was first believed, since several plans conflict. However, the Junior Chamber of Commerce may promote a week of extensive city-wide digging, Dick Barber, president of the Junior C. of C. said today.
Just to guarantee that students dig dandelions only, a course will be held in dandelion digging next Monday after the final meeting of team captains at 4:30 in the Memorial Union building, said Bill Farmer, third year law student, who is in general charge of Dandelion Day.
A meeting was held this afternoon for team captains who were not present at the meeting yesterday. Girls drew the names of co-captains yesterday, so they will know with whom they combine.
The final meeting will be next Monday afternoon in the Kansas room.

In addition, two classes of college grade have been approved by the United States department of education in connection with national defense and more than 60 University students are now taking this work. The courses are in engineering drawing and in engineering inspection and testing.
Diplomatic Front
Defense project No. 4—Diplomatic front. Cooperation between North and South America is highly desirable at this time and university officials have not overlooked this. A course in Fortuguese was reinstated at the beginning of the semester and special emphasis has been placed upon Pan-American activities in connection with the course.
The South American good will program has been continued by scheduling Guiomar Novae, brilliant Brazilian pianist, and Julien Bryan, noted lecturer and traveller, who presented a lecture on South America illustrated with moving pictures. Home Front
Defense project No. 5 - Home front Chancellor Malott calls attention to the democracy forum which has been conducted by the University since the first of the year. Nearly 100 speeches on subjects related to democracy have been delivered before civic or professional groups throughout the state by members of the University staff.
Defense project No. 6—Student front. High school graduates this spring will be able to complete the usual four-year University course in the College, School of Business, music department of the School of Fine Arts, and the School of Education in three years. This is made possible by the utilization of summer sessions and special arrangements of schedules.
Special arrangements are also available in the School of Engineering and Architecture for summer work which will reduce by half a year the length of time required for the completion of the courses. Extension Courses
The University extension division is supervising enrollment in a training course in aeronautical engineering at Wichita. The courses, under federal supervision, are chiefly concerned with aeronautical engineering, and enrollment has grown to more than 200.
Crisis may come and crisis may go, but the University has apparently borrowed the Boy Scout motto "Be Prepared."
The Salvation Army does not have kitchen facilities, and the feeding of the transient is done through the cooperation of privately owned restaurants throughout the town. The transient does not receive his bedding and meals as an outright gift, but must do some sort of work around the Salvation Army headquarters.

Nickelodeons Supplant Negro Jug Bands
Memphis, Tenn.—(UP)—Colorful Negro jug bands, native to the Southland and a holdover from an era long past, are being driven into obscurity.
It used to be that every road house around Memphis and every small dance hall down around Beale Street hired jug bands to provide music for dancers, and a more rhythmic music never was produced any where.
But today nearly every "juke joint," cafe and hamburger stand is featuring the music of not one but a half dozen or more big name orchestras. Guy Lombardo plays while dancers in some dilapidated highway place cavort on a splintered floor. Energetic high school jitterbugs romp until early morning to the hot tunes of Tommy Dorsey and Jimmy Lunceford. The society set sips Scotch and soda in an exclusive place, listening to the melodies of just about any orchestra believed worth a nickel to hear.
It's all because of the nickelodeon which has brought music of the best orchestras within the reach of even the smallest restaurant proprietors.
An amusement company will install a nickelodeon without charge. The cafe owner pays for the electricity required and the company provides the music. Then the two divide the profit.
At a nickel a tune it doesn't take a juke box long to pay for itself, and in many cases the nickelodeons pay the rent of the place of business that houses it. That's why the reign of the old jug band appears to be at an end. Many of the old-timers lament the demise.
Usually the jug bands were made up of four or five Negroes who had rhythm in their bones. The jug band got its name from one of its instruments — a one-gallon jug.

Registrar Lists Spring Semester Drop of 266
A total of 4,029 students were enrolled and attending classes at the University on March 1, as reported by the registrar's official bulletin released through the Chancellor's office yesterday.
This is 329 less than in the fall semester.
Comparison with the official count as published March 1,1940, revealed that 4,295 students were in attendance at the University on the same date last year, showing a drop of 266 students. This number is no greater, however, than the average decrease in enrollments throughout the country.
The bulletin also revealed that there were 215 new registrations this semester, bringing the total number of students registered to 4,573 since last September.
The registration is divided among the various schools as follows: Graduate school, 388; College, 2,075; Engineering and Architecture, 695; Fine Arts, 356; Law, 114; Pharmacy, 82; Medicine, 452; Education, 150; Business, 345.
A comparison of 1940-41 enrollment years shows that 565 students had withdrawn on March 1 last year, while only 544 have withdrawn this year.
From a total of 4,573 students registered, 3,919 are from Kansas and 644 from other states. Ten other students represent China, Australia, the Canal Zone, Hawaiian, Japan, Puerto Rico, and Venezuela.
The bulletin also revealed that 49.24% of the students are partly self-supporting and 20.53% are entirely self-supporting.

That the dandelions should be used for national defense certainly is realized by everyone, said Moore, and the casks of Kickapoo Cuddley Cocktail would undoubtedly do more than anything else toward building up soldier morale. (continued on page eight)

Many Concessions At Carnival
Those words and others of an equally serious nature will be heard by University coeds who go to seek the counsel of a Madam Booga - Wooga crystal - gazing fortune teller to be imported for the Dandelion Day carnival.
In addition to advice from the crystal gazer, students of the more vigorous type will have an opportunity to throw baseballs at milk bottles, toss rubber rings around the necks of real live ducks, shoot (continued to page eight)

This is really a tough time to write a column that is supposed to adhere pretty well to the trend of men's fashions. It's all due to this spring weather we've been quacking about for so long, too! After all, who cares how anybody dresses for a steak-fry? But the task is here; it must be done; here goes.
We took a trip downtown on our streamlined pogo-stick to look at the shop windows for inspirations about a lead for this column. Sure enough, there were some clothes there that reminded us that we're going to look a little different than we did a year ago. Here are some of them.
Something new and interesting is the "loafer jacket." It's a single breasted jacket of soft celanese and rayon designed for casual wear. There are two big patchpockets and the thing has lots of hand-stitching. Color—tan.
The newest thing in suits seems to be made of a curduroy twill (wool). The predominant color demanded will be a natural tan. The favorite model will be a single-breasted with three buttons, one center vent in back, and all the trimmings of saddle-stitching and a ticket pocket. It's fine for mixing with other slacks and jackets, too.
There's one thing which should command a lot of interest about now . . . it's the matched set of cable-stitch sweater and sox.
They are made of identical pattern and color. Try a set, and don't forget to have your trousers short enough to show off the sox to the desired advantage.
P. S. We're still waiting for those phone calls about how last week's column made you the Flash-of-the-Hill!

Feature of the program was the announcement of the 1941 Jay Jane Honor Girl. Patty Riggs, college junior, because of service, cooperation, and willingness to work exhibited as a pledge, was presented a bouquet of flowers by Ruth Spencer Ashcraft, this year's president, and announced as honor pledge.
Runners-up for top place, having worked up to towering numbers of points under the new merit system this year, were Margot Baker, Georgia Ferrel, Georgia Mae Landrith, and Adelle Woodside. They were presented corsages of roses.
The services were under the direction of Ruth Spencer Ashcraft,
Founded in 1923
The Jay Jane organization is now 18 years old on the campus. It was founded in 1923. It is a member of Phi Sigma Chi, the woman's national pep organization, whose purpose is to promote friendly rivalry among the schools of the Big Six and pep in the student body at home.
Dr. Forrest C. Allen, has called the group "the Gibraltar pep organization of Mount Oread."
Last year Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, stated that the Jay Janes "enthusiasm is contagious, not only for athletic events, but for worthwhile campus activities."

Nebraska USSF Drive Nets $700; Start Here Soon
A World Student Service Fund drive at the University of Nebraska, similar to the drive to be held soon on this campus, already has netted more than $700, according to a report received yesterday by John J. O. Moore, Y.M.C.A. executive secretary.
The drive was begun Monday, said Moore, and will continue throughout the week. Contributions at Nebraska are being received from both organized groups and individuals, with all funds being collected by an organization headed by a student chairman.
Calvin Rollins, college senior, is chairman of the Nebraska drive. Last year, as an entirely self-supporting student, Rollins made a personal contribution of $50 to the Chinese student relief fund. This year he heads the organization which collects money to help both Chinese and European students who have been deprived of educational facilities by the war.
Student and faculty chairmen for Mount Oread's drive have not yet been chosen, said Moore, but it is expected that final selection will be made at a meeting of prospective chairmen and the temporary WSSF committee tonight. After heads for the drive have been appointed a working organization will be set up and the campaign for student relief funds will begin immediately.

Would Make Lawrence Redbud City of Kansas
"To make Lawrence the 'Redbud City' of Kansas."
This is the aim of a rapidly proceeding drive by Lawrence organizations, Donald Durell, botany instructor and member of redbud committee. said today. $ \textcircled{1} $
Colorful Tree
Three reasons were given for the selection of the redbud: It is a native of Kansas, and was plentiful at the time of the settling of the state. It has a rugged character and ability to thrive under adverse conditions. It has beautiful blossoms. Plan Early Start
Some time ago Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, conceived the idea of planting a large number of redbuds in and around the city. As soon as the idea was suggested it was adopted enthusiastically.
For those who are unfamiliar with the redbud, it is a small tree, never more than 30 feet in height, producing-a large mass of deep pink blossoms in early spring. The redbud (Cercis canadensis) or Junebud, as it is sometimes called, is one of the most colorful and picturesque of native trees.
The Lawrence Community Council, an organization of representatives from the service clubs and civic organizations, is leading the way in the campaign. Although the planting of redbuds is the main object of the drive, other plantings, landscaping, and general city beautification projects will be carried out.
Its blossoms present one of the
The redbud committee, working toward an early planting of the trees, includes Mrs. H. H. Lane, of the Lawrence Flower club; Superintendent Clifford D. Dean, of the Lawrence schools; Donald Durrell, instructor in botany; Ray Wright, Lawrence businessman; William Griesa, nurseryman; and Glenn Charlton of the Chamber of Commerce.
The Community council will meet on March 31 to review the work and make further plans.

FRESHMAN TENNIS
Jack Baer Admits--of Salina, Kans. In fact, Oklahoma has a total of only two lettermen back at all positions except pitching, and neither of them were regulars last season.
Ralph Bollinger, last year's outfielder who was runner-up to Popeye Lasater for the batting crown, (s "booking good" at first. Tom Lally, last year's squad man, is playing second while a couple of sophomores, Shortstop Glyndal Pace of McAlerest and Dwight Collins of Okemah, are just a jump ahead of the opposition at those positions.
Strong Pitching Staff
The Oklahoma outfield apparently will be manned by Lettermen Walter Stephenson and Melvin Bullington and Sophomore Maury West of Oklahoma City. "Pretty good hitter, not a bad fielder" is Baer's matter-of-fact tabbing of West.

Norman, Okla., March 25-Jack Baer, University of Oklahoma assistant baseball coach who is readying the Sooners for the 1941 season while Lawrence "Jap" Haskell, Oklahoma coach the past 13 years, busies himself with his new duties as athletic director, says "pretty good" and "fair" an awful lot when discussing Sooner baseball prospects these days
Sooner Baseball Squad Lacks Veteran Talent
Bollinger Shifted to First
The pitching staff is Oklahoma's strongest department with lettermen John Heath, Harold Parks, and Virgil Ward returning and also Squad Man J. D. Young and a promising sophomore, Hal Cumberland
Harold Halling, former pitcher who is being made over into a catcher, gets the following rating in Baer's book: "Fair receiver, hits pretty good, but having trouble developing a snap throw to the bases since, as a pitcher, he always chucked with a full arm."
Johnny Chyz, sophomore who seems to have the bulge on the other catchers at present, Baer describes prosically as "Nice receiver, good arm, pretty fair hitter."
Soph Catcher Looks Good
The acute Sooner catching problem is clearing up some, admits this portly youth who made the Sooners a great outfielder from 1936 through 1938 and even now belongs to the Boston Bees of the National league.
Manhattan, March 24—Chris Langvardt, Kansas State's three-sport star, made such a big hit in the Kansas State-South Carolina U. football game in Columbia last fall he is still receiving cards and letters from nine different South Carolina coeds. He enjoys the correspondence. But the girls don't know Chris already is engaged to be married.

But in spite of this lack of veteran talent, Baer isn't discouraged. Neither is he optimistic.
"We're going to have a pretty fair club," he opines, leaving you to do your own interpreting.
Baseballers Begin Intra-squad Games
Four innings of an intra-squad game were completed before the Jayhawk baseball squad yielded to the cold and headed for the showers yesterday afternoon.
"Knute" Kresie started on the mound for one team and was touched for seven hits and four runs, with Bob Allen hurling the third and fourth innings.
John Burge was the opposing pitcher and allowed four safeties and two runs in the three innings he worked. Frank Bukaty, assistant coach, pitched the fourth inning.
Virgil Wise, second sacker, and Weymouth Lowe, left fielder, for the Burge's led the hitters with two for three. Wise, Delmar Green, and Steve Meade turned in a neat double play.
Weather permitting, the squad will engage in another practice game this afternoon with "Red" Dugan and Bukaty doing the throwing.

Ralph Miller Examined
Gwinn Henry and Uncle Sam are vying for the services of Ralph Miller, star halfback, until the results of the medical examining board, which checked him this morning, are made official.
The board, composed of five local physicians and headed by Dr. R. H. Edmiston, had not yet reached a decision on Miller's status.
"I won't know definitely how I am rated for five or six days," Miller said. "All I know is what was on the chart. They told me I had a nose obstruction and then, of course, my knee."
This statement lends hope that Miller's trick knee that has kept him out of football and basketball competition this year will also eliminate him from the draft, making him eligible for football and basketball next year.

BREAD ACROSS THE WATER
Can it be possible that England has lowered the blockade bars for foodstuffs to invaded Europe because she does not wish to offend Americans?
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26, 1941.
England knows that any food sent to Europe is that much food to Hitler's credit. Why is there a shortage of food in Europe? Partly because of the war, but mostly because Hitler has taken it. If America replaces that food, who gets it? The answer is simple. Hitler already has it.
But America is afflicted with sympathy. Perhaps it's a good thing; perhaps not. At any rate, we felt so strongly about the starving Europeans that we demand that England let us feed them. England needs our help desperately. She needs it more desperately than she needs the weapon of starvation revolts in Europe. Maybe she feels it is better to humor our humanitarian instincts.
WAKE UP AMERICA!!
It is terrifying to know that at a time when freedom is being menaced, perhaps more than at any time since the Revolutionary war, a great number of people fail to recognize the fact.
Sometimes sympathy—or too much sympathy—draws out the process of war interminably. Britain feels for her starving allies as well as we do. At least, she pities them between bombings; then she has her own hands full. But Britain knows that sooner or later Hitler will either have to kill to suppress revolt or feed subject peoples. Either process will hurt him. If America chooses to do the feeding, he won't be hurt at all.
After Leland Stowe's lecture, comment was varied. Some listeners remarked that Stowe had expressed their views exactly. Others took violent issue with the lecture.
Stowe said that if England were unsuccessful in the war, the United States would be conquered from within by persons who were thought to be good Americans.
"That could not happen," declared one who attended the lecture. "The majority of Americans are opposed to Hitler. They would not tolerate for one moment the termite-like gnawing from within which would destroy this government."
This is a logical-sounding statement, but the speaker overlooks that it was not the majority in France, Belgium, Norway, and the other German-dominated countries, that wanted Hitler to invade their lands. It was the minority, the unsatisfied or selfish little group of persons which exists in every country, that turned traitor and aided in the downfall of that government approved by the majority.
Criticism of the Kansan by its readers is both justifiable and desirable. The entire Kansan staff from the managing editor and the reporters to the proofreaders is composed of students in journalism. These students are sure to make errors, and the only way errors may be corrected is to hear the criticisms the readers have of the paper.
It is ill-advised for Americans to smile tolerantly and think that it can't happen here.
LET US KNOW
Every reader of the Kansan finds many things that are wrong with the paper. Critics of the Kansan say that the paper doesn't give complete coverage of University news; that it discriminates against certain persons and departments; and that certain just causes are slighted.
However, to be of real value to the Kansan, the criticisms must be made to members of the staff and should be constructive suggestions. If a reporter misses an important story, the managing editor of the Kansan should be the first person informed. When names are misspelled or facts are wrong, criticism will be of value only if it is made to a member of the Kansan staff.

Seward Fleeson Struggles To Uphold Family Record
By KEN JACKSON
If the old saying about the difficulty of living up to the record of a famous relative is true, probably no one on the campus is having a harder time than Seward Fleeson, college sophomore, from Sterling, Kan.
Like Seward, Doris Fleeson was born in Sterling. She entered the Universit in 1919 and majored in economics. Four years after she was graduated, she got a job on the News as a reporter. Previous to that, she had worked on smaller papers, and went to the News from a reporting job on Long Island, N. Y. Miss Fleeson was appointed Washington correspondent in 1937. A little later she began writing the column jointly with her husband who also had been a News reporter. Wrangled With Ise
Seward is the nephew of Doris Fleeson, '23, who, with her husband, John O'Donnell, writes the column "Capital Stuff" in the "New York Daily News." $ ^{ \textcircled{1}} $
By nature, Doris Fleeson is a diligent, painstaking worker. She has been a highly regarded newspaper woman for many years. She has appeared on the radio networks in forums, news talks, and interpretive speeches; and her articles have appeared in Saturday Evening Post and other publications. But Doris Fleeson gives herself no credit for ability or talent. According to Seward, his aunt's counsel to himself and his two brothers is that they must work hard in order to progress.
As a major in economics at the University, Miss Fleeson, of course, took much of her work under Prof. John Ise. Seward tells that although his aunt and Professor Ise are fast friends, they often wrangled in class.
In addition to her theory of hard work, Miss Fleeson believes that one should get what is coming to him. Seward's favorite story of his aunt
is about her graduation fight for the honor of delivering the valedictory address.
In spite of all these aspects of Doris Fleeson's character, Seward hastens to say that she also has a good sense of humor. Once in New York she had to get in touch quickly with Mayor Fiorella LaGuardia. She finally learned that he was in a police patrol car touring the town. In desperation the columnist went to the police short-wave radio station and asked the dispatcher if she might not send out a call for the mayor. After some argument, the dispatcher agreed, and Miss Fleeson broadcast the call herself. Mayor LaGuardia,
Vies For Valedictory Honors
(continued to page eight)
"My aunt was vying with a young man for the honor," Seward recounted. "She woulu not have been considered but for the fact that her classmate had taken three hours at Sterling college during his senior year and had made a rather low grade. If this mark were to be counted in with his high school work, my aunt would have made the highest grade in the class. Naturally, she believed it should be counted. Her competitor, on the other hand, didn't think it ought to be considered.
"At any rate, a good battle ensued. In the end my aunt came off victorious and was allowed to give the address."
ROCK CHALK TALK
Sense of Humor Superb
Hot under the collar and blushing, George Kettner, Summerfield scholar and head of the county clubs, tried to explain to Marvin Goebel and others in the alumni office in Frank Strong basement that he was innocent—absolutely—of sending for a handsome picture of a nude woman.
But there was the circumstantial evidence—the picture itself, mailed to Kettner in care of the alumni office. He was accused of being ashamed of having it sent to his home address.
When the truth leaked out, Kettner's name was cleared. Goebel and Charles Wright had ordered the picture out of Coronet magazine, had it sent to Kettner for a joke.
By HEIDI VIETS
So far the deep, dark secrets behind the message have not been revealed.
The following telegram was received recently by the president of Tau Kappa Epsilon, who happens to be Joe Moseley: "Suggest you appoint body guard to protect Mitchelson and Linquist from designing women and vice versa. (Signed) Naramore and Tremblly."
The University band had a high old time in Topeka last night. While bandmembers ate supper, they sang. Every so often Wally Kunkel would break into "How Dry I Am." Whenever he came to the word "dry," the boys across the table would throw water on him.
Another sidelight on the trip is that one of the boys, perhaps because he was in uniform, went chivalrous and aided each of 10 girls with their chairs before he would seat himself. It was a turkey dinner he was putting off, too.
Just before the curtain went up for the band concert Monday night, everybody was in place except Joe Langworth. Finally he climbed over the back of the risers and panted, "I'm a success, boys. Two kids asked me for my autograph."
The Templin telephone rang. It rang again, then a third time. Later in the day the ring-off-the-wall scene was repeated. That night 29 reluctant freshmen were assembled in the library. It was decided that for each time the phone rang more than twice, all freshmen would receive one stroke from a sturdy paddle.
The phone rang. Without a word, 29 freshmen jumped to their feet and raced toward it.

Buffet suppers on Sunday night at Battiefeld hall have been moved up to 5:30 p.m., and the early hours are catching some of the boys unaware. The reason for the shift? No, the boys were not in a hurry to get to church, and they did not want to start studying earlier. Their regular meal time conflicted with Jack Benny.

Sponsor Aero-School To Meet Factory Demand
In an effort to keep pace with the demand for trained engineers in aircraft industries, the University Extension Division is sponsoring a course in aeronautical engineering at Wichita. Enrolled in the course are 193 men, all high school or university graduates.
Classes which are given at night in the shops at Wichita University are Aircraft Drafting, 30 students enrolled; Aircraft Stress Analysis, 28 enrolled; and Materials and Processing, 135 enrolled.
All of the students are given part-time work in Wichita's four aircraft plants.
Tuition and shop expenses are paid by the government, but students provide for their living expenses and textbooks.
The need for aircraft engineers was discussed in a recent talk between F. A. Russell, professor of civil engineering, and an official of one of the Wichita plants. Russell was told that 200 people were employed at this plant in 1939, and at present 2,200 are employed. Within six months, there will be need for 7,000, yet the present supply of trained help is exhausted.
Russell, Kenneth Razak, professor of mechanical engineering, and George Bradshaw, professor of civil engineering, left today for Wichita to inspect the work being done by the students.

Three chartered buses were carrying members of the University band from a concert in Topeka last night, when the first bus stopped with a jarring thud. Some farmer's calf had picked the wrong time and place for a stroll.

Anticipating fresh hamburgers, the occupants of the buses swarmed out and began a search for the calf. But the animal either was not hurt or the bus had thrown it considerable distance, because he couldn't be found. The hungry bandman had to wait until they arrived in Lawrence for their hamburgers.

Debate Capital Conscription
There will be 50 debates Friday and Saturday on the question, Resolved: "That the United States should have conscription of capital in the event of war." University debaters participating are Emmett Park college senior; Grier Stewart, college junior; and Russel Baker and Dick Oliver, business juniors.
The award for the highest ranking speaker in the tournament was won last year by Leo Rhodes, a University student. Although Kansas State won the tournament last year, the university of Kansas tied with South Dakota for first in debate and received third place in the oratorical contest.
ISSUE INSTRUCTIONS--each box, numbered with the number of the team, will be weighed.
A direction sheet, issued to dandelion captains by the Alumni office, informs each captain to see that his team is on hand Wednesday morning. April 2, at 9 o'clock on the plot of ground allotted to the team. Each member is responsible for his own weapon, which should be any kind of knife with a long, strong blade, for Webster also mentions that the blossoms are equipped with long taproots.
33 On Each Team
Each team will be made up of 33 persons plus the two captains. Twenty boys, 10 girls, and three faculty members will comprise a team. Students not reported to the Alumni office as members of a team will be contacted and recruited by some other method. Sgt. William Kollender anticipates the willing cooperation of all R.O.T.C. boys since he has promised demerits for those who don't participate.
Girl captains have drawn the names of their men co-captains and each team has been allotted its specific plot on the campus for excavation.
Crown Winners at 4 o'clock
Winners will be notified by telephone and will be presented at the crowning at 4 o'clock in front of the R.O.T.C. flagpole.
The Dandelion carnival is scheduled to begin at 1:30 and at 2:30 street dancing will start in front of Bailey Chemical Laboratory. At 4 o'clock the king and queen will be crowned and prizes will be announced.
The festivities will be concluded at 7 o'clock when a celebration at the Memorial Union building including a rally, parade, dance, and a bonfire of dandelions will be held, if tentative plans are carried out.
Charles Wright, dandelion field marshall, announced today that
there is a need for a few more men captains, and that interested persons should contact him at once.
BANDS WILL---the north side of the ballroom and drink cokes as their more energetic friends cavort.
The dance will last from 8 to 12 o'clock. Stags and couples will be admitted at the Varsity price of 75 cents.
WOULD AID DEFENSE---rifles, enter the nail-driving contest and eat hot dogs.
"Approximately 180,000 30-gallon casks of the cocktail," said the Y.M.C.A. secretary, "could be made from the University's haul of dandelions by using my personal formula, which I would be only too happy to release to the federal government."
This quantity should be sufficient. Moore estimates, to provide each Kansas conscript with one gallon of Kickapoo Cuddley Cocktail a day (plenty to keep his morale up) for the duration of his training. And if the supply at any time shows danger of depletion, he adds, perhaps another Kansas college will undertake a similar project.
MANY CONCESSIONS---rifles, enter the nail-driving contest and eat hot dogs.
For students who like to speculate on the workings of the laws of chance a large bingo table will be conducted, and interested persons may pitch their pennies for a worthy cause.

The problems of the Student Forums board were discussed, and the next council was recommended to further cut the budget of that group. The Forums board has seen its budget fall from $1,500 to $300 in the past six years.

"I was sitting at the radio waiting for Jack Beny to come on one Sunday evening, listening to a news roundup of the capitals of Europe. Correspondents spoke from Oslo, Berlin, London, and Paris. At last the announcer said that we would now hear a discussion of the situation from Rome. The discussion was to be presented by Doris Fleeson and John O'Donnell, New York columnists.
"I enjoyed that more than anything I have ever heard on the radio."

Hill Coeds Begin Annual Spring Drive To Elect Relays Queen, Attendants
It comes only once a year; but when it does arrive, it brings a lot of glory to some lucky Kansas coeds.
It's Kansas Relays time, and once more the more comely of the University's women will compete for the honor of Relays Queen and her attendants.
JAMES KNOWLEDGE
Notify Organized Houses
It all began today, when all sororities along with Watkins, Miller, and Corbin halls were notified by the Relays committee to choose one candidate from each house to compete for the queenship.
After selections are made by the houses, pictures of the candidates will be submitted to the Relays committee. Then the fun will begin—but it won't be in Lawrence.
HELEN JOHNSON
. . . retiring queen.
Last year Nebraska's track team chose the queen. Helen Johnson. Kappa, was the choice, with Gamma Phi Marjorie Heimbrook and Becky Tremble, Theta, as her attendants.
The committee has selected as judges a team from some college or university competing in the Relays. Members of this team pick the Queen and her attendants. When the results are known, the names of the winners and the judges will be release.
Nebraska Chose 1940 Queen
The Relays committee has sent out entry blanks for the track carnival to colleges, universities, junior colleges, and more than 700 high schools.

Solicit Donations For Lindley Fund
Organization has been completed and solicitation for the Lindley Memorial lecture fund were begun at a meeting of the memorial fund committee in Kansas City, Tuesday. The solicitation committee, with Roy Roberts, managing editor of the Kansas City Star as chairman, is composed of alumni and friends of the late chancellor who will solicit donations for the fund in key cities throughout the country.
Lyle Armel, assistant secretary of the Endowment Association and member of the committee which met in Kansas City, stressed the fact that students and faculty members who wish to contribute might do so through the Endowment Association, room 303B, Frank Strong hall.

Wright Grows Dandelion Groggy Prize List For Diggers Increases
"How are the dandelions doing?"
"That's all I hear any more. People never say, 'How are you doing?' It's always 'How are the dandelions?' "
This is the plaint of Feld Marshal - of - the - Dandelions, Charles Wright, fine arts senior.
Can you imagine people turning to you and thinking only of dandelions? Wright estimates that he is solicited regarding the 'conditions of the dandelions at the rate of $10\frac{1}{2}$ times a minute.
Another worry on the mind of the field marshal is the report of local weather observers that in three out of the past five years it has been snowing, blowing, storming on April 2, the date set for the contest.

Galvin places prominent politicians at the head of his list because, he said, they are always cordial. Perhaps, he guessed, they never know but what an eager autograph hunter is a constituent in his spare time.
Politicians-Statesmen First
According to Galvin, the autograph hunter's two best assets are tolerance and patience—tolerance of some celebrities' aversion to his tribe, and patience to lie in wait for the quarry and then cajole until the famous or notorious person signs his name.
Hobby Hound Galvin Auctions Autographs

Nary Dunkill
Two weeks only
His first sheaf of autographs was contributed by a group of professional football players 11 years ago. He immediately got the fever and was off. Most autograph hounds, he said, start in much the same fashion.
Galvin always has lived in St. Louis.
At auction, Galvin explained, autographs may bring any sum from 10 cents for a run-of-the-mine Jack Benny or Rudy Vallee to $75 for a Rudolph Valentino. He refused to set a value on the signature of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, for whom he has waited without success in hotel lobbies and railway stations from time to time.
Hobby Begun 11 Years Ago
St. Louis—(U.P.)—If you're a celebrity, you may have met Johnny Galvin. Because Johnny is a veteran autograph hunter, and he has thousands of signatures in well-bound albums.
The value of a signature, as it appears in Galvin's album will depend upon two factors—present or past prominence and the degree of persistence with which the celebrity fights off people afflicted with his type of hobby- mania.

He made a trip to Washington a few years ago and spent a blissful week cramming his albums with the names of cabinet officers, senators and diplomats. He obtained President Roosevelt's signature by mail, however.

Storer Conducts Planet Peep Show
By BILL FEENEY
You rather feebly to illuminate the southwestern sky are two way points of light, almost lost in nudge backdrop of darkness. Weidents of the planet Earth pay little attention, regarding them as "props" for furnishing a returial setting for discussing titles, relativity, etc., with the girl end.
Jet these lights are really the new from two planets that dwarf earth-Jupiter and Saturn, 400 1900 million miles away.
to get a better look at these entry cousins of our solar system, I attended the open house held the observatory west of Marvin i Saturday night.

someone would point a rifle at a target. The telescope looks much like an anti-aircraft gun, with a complicated system of wheels and levers, and a clock-like device which counteracts the rotation of the earth. Finally Saturn is in focus, and the inter-planetary peep show begins.
Saturn A Show-off
Saturn is a gaudy, whirling showoff, gleaming like a candle in the black sky. Spinning around the planet's equator with a motion plainly visible to an observer are the famous rings of Saturn. Storer tells the group that the rings are composed of many small bodies, possibly from one of Saturn's moons that ventured too close and was pulled apart by the force of gravity. These rings are about 150,000 miles wide, but less than 100 miles thick, which accounts for their transparent appearance.
Quite in contrast to its reputation, for anyone born under the sign of Saturn is supposed to be a dullard, it looks like a nice place
to live on. Wishful thinking, though -the temperature is around 236 degrees below zero.
Jupiter Like Garbo
Professor Storer makes a few adjustments, and we look at Jupiter. This planet gives a Garboesque performance, darting in and out of cloud banks, finally passing completely out of sight. Only two of Jupiter's 11 moons are visible because of the haze. It was painful to think of those moons going to waste, but they are, as the planet is too cold to support life as we know it. One of the moons seemed uncomfortably close to' the planet, but the other was almost out of the field of the telescope. Jupiter is almost 11 times as large as earth, and slightly larger than Saturn.
The sky became cloudy before the two-hour open house was finished, and the guests left. So we stayed and talked a while with Professor Storer. Being an ex-reader of "Buck Rogers," we had to ask, "Is there any possibility of life existing on any of the other planets?"

Ober's HEAD TO FOOT OUTFITTERS
Storer promised to tell us definitely when somebody makes a round trip via rocket ship to one of the planets, for until then nobody can do more than theorize. Life could possibly exist on Mars, as the temperature on the planet's equator at noon is 60 degrees above zero, but drops below zero at night. Whether atmosphere or plant life exists is not known.
After leaving we tried to figure out how far 200 million miles was, and gave up quickly, as there was nothing to compare with such a distance. Then we tried to picture something 11 times as large as the earth, and gave up on that also. Finally we wound up on the idea of a lifeless planet having 11 moons, and Earth having to plug along with only one. Maybe we could trade Jupiter one over-age moon for a few new ones.

Paul Lindeman, pivot man for the Cougars, carries the scoring burden for Washington State, but he has four dangerous team mates that must be closely guarded.

Footballers Scrimmage In Stadium
Shifting the scene of activity from the practice field to the stadium last night, Gwinn Henry put his charges through a stiff football practice in which offensive play was stressed.
The new "double wing spinner" that will be introduced to Kansas fans next fall is shaping into a vital offensive weapon, with Walmir Miller in the important quarterback slot—if the draft doesn't get him. Working with Miller in the backfield last night were Ray Evans and Ray Niblo at halfbacks and "Red" Ettinger and Ed Linguist alternating at full.
After running through a few plays from the new formation, Henry held a light scrimage.
Starting lineups were:
Offensive team—Bob Hagen and Hub Ulrich, ends; Jack Tenenbaum

In Alumni Exhibit Display Relics
By CHARLES PEARSON
Many relics of by-gone days will be included in the exhibit prepared by the Alumni office for the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration.
Among the more interesting of the relics found in the University vault is a schedule of final examinations, given June 18 and 19, 1867. The faculty was small—E. J. Rice, D. R. Robinson, and F. H. Snow. The courses offered would flunk many a Phi Beta Kappa of today. Some of them included: Virgil's Aeneid, Xenophon's Anabasis, Caesar, Latin, Algebra, English Grammar, Plane and Spherical Geometry, Cicero's Orations, and
Free Tuition Then
It was announced at the same time that the preparatory course would be extended to three years, and the standard of admission to that department would be arranged accordingly. The program advised that tuition was free, board reasonable, and a first class chemical and philosophical apparatus available.
Another interesting item found in the vaults was the famous telegram which caused a near riot at the University in 1880. The Chancellor, Dr. James Marvin, was sent a forged telegram telling of the death in Atchison of the Rev. F. T. Ingalls, a member of the board of regents. Chancellor Marvin called a memorial convocation and left for the funeral at Atchison.
Tongue In Cheek
Upon his return a parade was ready to meet him. Muffled drums were beaten in funeral fashion, the flag was carried at half mast, and here and there a cheer spoiled the solemn atmosphere. Some students who had participated were punished, others dismissed, but the hoax has lived in the history of the University as probably the best joke the students ever pulled on a Chancellor.
Still another bit of memorabilia is the first issue of the University newspaper. It was called the "Meteor," and was dated Nov. 29, 1867. It consisted of 45 pages, all written in beautiful, old-fashioned longhand. It called itself the "stronghold of science and art." The editors were Eunice M. Pease and Robert Burgess.
Harold Wilson, Alcester, S. D., has been appointed assistant pressman and linotype operator in the Bureau of Printing.
Wilson received his B. S. degree from South Dakota State College with a major ni printing and journalism.

Branson's Condition Reported Better; Thompson Improves
The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce last night, after a meeting with J. H. Cargill of Cargill Productions, decided that the financial risk involved in underwriting the Coronado Entrada was too great to attempt, since no favorable contract with the company in charge of its production could be obtained, George Hedrick, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, said today. As a result there will be no Entrada in June.
The condition of Richard Branson, college freshman who was admitted to Watkins Memorial hospital Tuesday because of pneumonia, was reported better today.
Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the health service also said that the condition of Marvin Thompson, college freshman who received severe burns last month, has improved greatly.
Activities Group Plans Publicity For Anniversary
A meeting of all members of the County Clubs and the Student Correspondents committees was held this afternoon in Frank Strong auditorium to discuss plans for the University's Diamond Jubilee celebration in June.
Charles Wright, chairman of the State-wide Activities association, called the meeting to outline plans for the celebration and to discuss methods of boosting the annipersary program.
3,000 Students Expected For Music Festival, April 4,5
More than 3,000 students from 60 high schools will swarm over the campus April 4 and 5 when the University serves as host to the district music festival.
The festival is sponsored by the Kansas State High School Activities association. Neal Wherry, Liberty Memorial high school principal, is the local chairman.
One of the largest schools entered is Topeka high with 400 students participating. Several schools will have more than 100 entries.
Last year 63 schools with 2,955 musicians entered the contest.
Lecture Course Committee Discusses 1942 Attractions

SACRED COW NO.1
THURSDAY, MARCH 27, 1941.
Henry Ford is a remarkable man. This no one can deny. He represents the American ideal of freedom of enterprise, genius, hard work, perserverance, and all the other beautiful phrases in the book of "How To Win A Million Dollars."
The man who put a fliver under every fourth man, woman, and child in America deserves thanks and respect, for he was one of the builders of the American we know.
But, like so many other things, times change. The system under which Mr. Ford rose from "one of us" to the richest man in the country is no better than the principles upon which it is built, and the principles of the system which grew up with Mr. Ford include the supposition of good times, fair cooperation between labor and capital, and the approximate balance of jobs and workers.
Perhaps Ford workers get a fair deal now, but, with no official bargaining agent, they would be powerless if that fair deal should suddenly fold. That problem is the more distressing because the Ford empire forms whole communities, even cities, where it establishes itself. If this fair deal should fold at the River Rouge plant, it would be to the workers advantage to take what Ford officials offered rather than move family and belongings to some other city.
Mr. Ford is fighting tooth and toenail against the unionization of his empire. Mr. Ford claims that his employees get as fair a deal without unions as other workers do with unions. Mr. Ford claims that all any man asks is "to be told what to do, and to receive a wage." Mr. Ford is, as usual, a little bit behind times in his ideas.
That all workers want is "to be told what to do and receive a wage" is no longer true. Economists have shown that a worker is every bit as entitled to security and the so-called "higher things" in life as the boss. A man who has given the best years of his life to his boss, and who has invested his skill and brains and muscle in an enterprise should receive more than a mere "wage."
Mr. Ford has succeeded in fighting unions so far because he is indispensable to the national defense. If he gets away with it, others may have a bee in the bonnet. Let's get it settled once and for all that no one is indispensable to the country if he won't cooperate.
PLOWED UNDER
If you are a member, or would like to be a member of the mythical "Thank God It's Nearly Spring" club, you will be interested in the latest grass blade measurements made in the lawn in front of Watson library.
In any proposed student-wide movement, such as the Dandelion day, a few dissenters always refuse to cooperate. If there be any at the University who don't have enough love for the beauty of the campus to help obtain an unmarred, rich green verdure—they should be plowed under it.
The average blade is now exactly two and one eighth inches long, or tall. The spring-loving club has carefully charted the progress of the chlorophyllled blades since they made their early season debut, about three weeks ago.
The club is now giving hearty recommendation to the proposed Dandelion day. The eradication and celebration, which will take place on Wednesday, April 2, is a step toward further beautification of Mt. Oread. The University campus is already an Emerald-Isle of the Middle West, but any possible addition to its beauty should be eagerly sought.
ANOTHER AID TO BETTER EDUCATION
The recent addition of more student advisers to the University vocational guidance program assures a greater success for this service. The success of the program will be measured in higher grades and happier lives for students who take advantage of the opportunity offered.
The purpose of the vocational guidance program is to advise students who are undetermined on what course of study to follow in the University.
In interviews with advisers, faculty members or business men, students may analyze their problem of choosing a vocation.
The vocational program is being expanded by a series of broadcasts over KFKU every Friday afternoon. The programs will reach high school listeners and aid in the outlining and determination of courses for them to follow for their desired vocations. Early determination of basic studies will increase their ability to maintain a high grade average after they come to college.

Sell--Not Give Is Rule of Service League
By EDITH BORDEN
Heavens! Here comes my last year's hat!
Ever had that experience?—that mild shock of meeting a stranger decked out in what you used to wear?
Students who are natives of Lawrence probably know the feeling, for many of them have mothers who are members of the Social Service League.
Coats that wear thin in the elbows from rubbing library tables and desks, shoes that break down under collegiate strain, dresses that go out of style and sweaters that fade with washing—these are the things that mothers round up every so often and send to the Social Service League.
Lawrence is not a large city. It has no grueling industries to exploit labor. It has, however, as has every American city, its share of the unemployed and the unfit. "You'd be surprised," says Mrs. Bessie Taylor, director of the League's store, "at the number of people in Lawrence who have never owned anything new and I don't mean just kids."
Organized in 1870
The Lawrence Social Service League was organized in 1870, only four years after the University was established. For the past twelve years, it has maintained a store at 905 Rhode Island street, where it serves from 25 to 75 customers a day.
Business people and homemakers of Lawrence donate every bit of merchandise sold in the store; and never once in all the years of its history has the store-s stock been exhausted.
Directors of the League have found it advisable to sel these donated articles rather than to give them outright. By making a slight charge, the store is able to maintain itself, furthermore, the psychological effect achieved by re-moving the smart of charity is marked.
Sell—Not Give
What happens to a garment that goes to the Social Service League? If it is a seasonal garment, it will be sold, almost at once. If it is an out-of-season garment, it will be mended, pressed, and put on display in the store. If it is something for a man, or for a small boy, it is sure to be sold very soon, because, Mrs. Taylor explained.* the League gets few garments for men and boys. "We have lots of things for women and little girls," she said, "but boys always wear their clothes out."
Nothing Is Wasted
If a garment needs alteration and the woman who purchases it cannot sew, the sewing club, under the direction of Mrs. J. F. Kell, helps her to remodel and fit it. Often people send remnants of new materials from which children's clothing can be made.
When garments received are too worn to sell, they are cut up for quilt patches or made into rags for rugs. Nothing is wasted.
Mrs. Taylor says that University students often drop in at the League especially psychology and sociology majors. "I can always spot students," she observed; "they all have that seeing-theother-side-of-life look." She likes to have them come, though, and suggests that when they do they bring along the sweater of which they have grown tired or the dress packed away in the trunk because it never hung right.

ROCK CHALK TALK
Alan Houghton says he's going to put a combination lock on his door at the Sig Ep house. While he was taking a shower last night, his roommate George Christman locked the door and went to a show. Alan marked time for two hours waiting for him to return.
He: Remember, our Prom date now stands for April 7.
A sex appeal meter invented by University electrical engineers will be exhibited at the Engineering Exposition to be held here April 18 and 19. By passing a very slight electric current through a person's body, the engineers say their machine will measure one's oomph.
Snatch of a telephone conversation on which we eavesdropped.
She: Is it true that we can have Glenn Miller if we wait 'till July 4 for the Cakewalk ?
If the person is totally lacking in sex appeal, nothing happens. But if he or she has it, the machine goes wild, ringing bells and flashing colored lights.
Ain't science wonderful?
The Phi Chi's and the women at 1234 Oread have become good neighbors this semester. After watching each other take morning exercises through their windows across the street, they started comparing exercise notes.
Lenora "Squeek" Grizzell thought she had a car. She had one when she left for home last weekend, but when she came back "Corbina" was nowhere to be found. Sunday night an anonymous call told her she would find Corbina in the middle of the stadium football field. She did. It has been suggested that Corbina scampered over by herself.
Then came long telephone conversations, coke dates, and movies. During the last of the neighborly phone calls, a Phi Chi suggested that it would be nice and neighborly if the women would come over to the house for dinner some Thursday night.
1234 Oread is still waiting for the invitation. Could it be that this beautiful friendship is at an end?
Not long ago John Elder, Battenfeld, got a crew haircut. Last Saturday he went with Charles Skidmore to Topeka to visit his mother. He knocked on the door; she came and queried, "Yes?"
When she saw that it was her own son, she couldn't believe her eyes.

THIS electrical mouth at Bell Telephone Laboratories is putting a new telephone to one of its final tests. Over and over, it can repeat these odd sentences without the slightest variation. They contain all the fundamental sounds that contribute to the loudness of sound in our speech. This mouth can also make tests with simple tones of known pitch and intensity.
At the same time other telephones are being steamed, baked, frozen, lifted and dropped into their cradles by tireless machines. All this is part of a carefully planned curriculum that makes every piece of telephone equipment prove it is capable of giving you the best possible service—under any and all conditions.

Brandt Tells Story
Shot Way Through School
'I shot my way through school. That's how I became interested in Acme Newspictures," said Bert Brandt, former University student and manager of the Kansas City, Mo. bureau of Acme News pictures.
Brandt spoke to journalism classes today on the part pictures play in the day's news and demonstrated the transmission of pictures.
Names Chief Headache
The speaker remarked that his chief headache is telephone operators who have never heard of pictures being transmitted by wire. A straight uninterrupted line is necessary in order to send a picture over the "bug" transmitter.
A four by five print is attached to a drum which revolves at the speed of 100 revolutions per minute, and moves over threads 2-100 per revolution. A small light transverses the drum while it is revolving and sends the reflection over the wire to the receiving set on the other end of the wire.
Must Have Harmony
Brandt said that it was necessary that the two drums be in perfect harmony and tune. If the line is clear, the transmitter then sends the picture which is recorded on a negative film in the nome office.
One of the most valuable sources of pictures to the news services is respondents. A news service may
have a person acting as correspondent who is also correspondent for three other news agencies. This complicates the situation when something big breaks.
"One of the easiest ways of getting shots and good ones is through the publicity men of the studios in Hollywood, Culver City," said Brandt. "These pictures are usually publicity pictures in which the public is interested."
SEATTLE, Wash.—(UP)—The girls of Franklin high school in Seattle are getting their shoes this year at a cost of less than $2 a pair. They make the shoes themselves—with the aid of boys in the manual training shop.
FORENSIC FIREWORKS
FORENSIC FIREWORKS "Resolved: That the United States should have conscription of capital in the event of war." The University debaters are Emmett Park, college senior; Grier Stewart, college junior; Russell Baker, business junior; and Dick Oliver, business junior.

indirect word as to the plans of Jugoslavia's new rulers. Thus, it could not be said flatly that they would throw the Axis pact into discard.
But the character of the men who assumed power—representing the elements in Jugoslavia which had protested alignment with Germany most bitterly—the shocked,reticent attitude in Berlin and the gleeful words of Prime Minister Winston Churchill, left small doubt as to the outcome.

Waggoner Wins First In M. V. Speech Contest
John Waggoner, college sophomore, won first place for the University in the Missouri Valley Forensic league oratorical contest last night in Frank Strong hall with his oration, "Breadline Democracy."
South Dakota placed second in the contest with an oration on "A Free Press in a Free Land," by Earl Cain, and Oklahoma took third with an oration called "The Last Unknown" by Robert Loeffler.
In his oration Waggoner said that while we had political and social democracy in the United States, neither could be truly effective unless we had economic democracy also.
Preceding the contest Lyman Field, who was graduated from the University in 1936 and is now a member of a Kansas City law firm, spoke on the importance of debate and speech training to the business and professional man. This talk was given at a banquet for the contestants held in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building.
The tournament continued through today with debates on the question "Resolved: That the United States should have the conscription of capital in the event of war." These were held at 9, and 10:30 o'clock this morning and at 1:15 this afternoon. The University debaters were Emmett Park, college senior; Grier Stewart, college junior; and Russell Baker, and Dick Oliver, business juniors.
The extemporaneous speaking contest was held at 4 o'clock this afternoon in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building with James Meredith, college senior, representing the University. The speeches were on the general subject of American politics.
Two final rounds of debates will be held tomorrow morning, and the awards will be announced at noon in the theater in Green hall.

Spring We wonder.
With Easter just around the corner—well, almost—it's discouraging to wake up, stick your nose out the window, and pull it back in frozen.
As yet the situation isn't quite that bad, but the weather report says, "Fair and colder." Hill fashion fiends are worrying. What good is it to be fair if it is also colder? Easter bonnets or springtime skirts and sweaters look ashamed and shivering in mink-coat weather.
The whole trouble is that campus women have dug out good shekels to buy spring clothes. If genuine spring doesn't turn up soon, the danedlions aren't the only ones who will be unhappy.

Moorhead Named Kent Scholar At Columbia
Moorhead is a member of the Board of Editors of the Columbia Law Review, one of the nation's ranking legal publications. The Journal, published monthly by a student staff chosen on the basis of scholarship, contains articles by leading members of the bar as well as work by the undergraduates.
Richard Dean Moorhead, a graduate of the University of Kansas and now a third year student in the Columbia Law School, has been designated a James Kent Scholar in recognition of his having been the top-ranking member of the second year class.
Five Kent Scholarships are awarded annually as academic honors to students, in each of the three classes, who have maintained the highest scholastic averages during the previous academic year. Moorhead, who has maintained an A average since he entered the Law School, was also the ranking Kent Scholar on the basis of his first-year record.
As a first year student, Moorhead was the recipient of the Charles B. Beck prize, awarded annually to the member of the class most proficient in the course on real property. After graduation in June, the Kansas alumnus will be associated with the leading New York firm of Sullivan and Cromwell.

Survey Publishes Study Of Oil-Producing Rocks
A bulletin for geologists and oil men throughout Kansas, "Subsurface Mississippi Rocks of Kansas" by Wallace Lee of the Kansas Geological Survey, has been published and is now available at the Survey office. $ \textcircled{*} $
The Mississipian group of rocks is an important group in oil production in Kansas.
A microscopic study of well cuttings and cores of the Mississippian rocks and an examination of the insoluble residues (residue remaining after treating cuttings with hydrochloric acid) was made by Lee. He has determined criteria for distinguishing the various units within this rock group from the study. The geographic distribution of these units also are described by Lee.
The bulletin, containing 114 pages, 8 maps, and 6 other illustrations, was prepared as a cooperative project of the State and Federal Geological Surveys with the object of acquiring and publishing information that will be of value in the further development of the oil and gas resources of Kansas.
first year class at the Columbia Law School. Kuraner and Moorhead, who were both elected to Phi Beta Kappa at the University of Kansas, are holders of regional scholarships to the Law School. About 30 such awards are made to each entering class. The country is divided into geographical areas, and several scholarships are given in each region to outstanding graduates of accredited institutions.

Wheeler Illustrates Secret Codes At Math Colloquim
A mathematical test for checking the secrecy of codes and ciphers was illustrated by J. J. Wheeler, associate professor of mathematics, in his talk to the mathematics colloquium yesterday afternoon.
Wheeler declared that the perfect code, one impossible for enemies to decipher, should use each cipher 34 times in the coded message.
Using the Preamble to the Constitution as an example, Wheeler illustrated the number of times each cipher appeared in this message when written in a certain code. It proved to be an imperfect code due to the variety of times the ciphers appeared.
He will give the mathematical answer to this problem when he continues his discussion at next week's colloquim.

Gwinni Henry, head football coach, has scheduled a heavy scrummage this afternoon between the Reds and the Golds in Memorial stadium. Last night the squad held a light workout, featuring plays from the new spinner double-wing formation against five and six man lines.
Although England is the chief worry of Jack Friel, Washington coach, he is also bothered by the fact that one of his boys, Captain Ray Sundquist, who was injured in last week's game with Arkansas, may not be in the best condition when the game starts tomorrow.
In the starting lineup for Washington will be Lindeman at center; Vern Butts and Dale Gentry at forward; and Kirk Gebert and Sundquist at guard. Washington has a full set of reserves who come close to the regulars in playing skill. The Cougars are a tall and heavy team and can stand their ground on rebound play.

Daytona Beach, Fla., March 28—(UP) -The chances are that Uncle Sam is going to have baseball yelling "uncle" by the time August or September rolls 'round.
Not only yelling "Uncle," but "Uncle, lay off us—please!"
The potential baseball soldiers you have heard about so far comprise only a handful of those who really are in danger of having to lay down the flannel and the bat for the khaki and the gun. Only the prominent draft numbers have been given headline space—Greenberg, Rizzuto and top notchers like that. But scattered through the major and minor league rosters, are scores, if not hundreds, of players under the scrutiny of draft board officials.
"Baseball is going to be hit, and hit hard" a prominent major league official told me when I was traveling through the grapefruit circuit a week or so ago.
You know why, of course—the draft.
"Right now it would appear that only a scattered few of the players are in danger of being shipped off to camp but that doesn't mean anything. The players with low draft numbers are keeping it secret. And naturally, when they got their contracts they didn't write back and say they didn't think they'd better sign them, being as they were likely, to be called into service within a few months. They signed up and kept mum. They were gunning for a few months pay. Better to come south and get in May, June and July pay checks than none at all."

defense and a varied offense, using blocks and screens to check their men. John Kotz, sophomore forward, is a slick ball handler and just behind England in scoring. Charles Epperson, a junior, is the other forward. Fred Rehm, another soph, starts at guard with Senior Ted Strain at the other sentinel post.
Tickets for the game are now on sale at the athletic office in Robinson gym with prices at $1.68, $1.12, and 56 cents.

London Trade Expert Will Speak Tonight
From the first musical note at the Dandelion Dance in the Memorial Union building at 8 o'clock tonight until next Wednesday, and perhaps sometime thereafter, the Hill will be dandelion-conscious with a vengeance.
Finally Spiva took the man aside and asked if he never grew weary of being chucked in the clink.
"It's my profession," Bill replied.
Feature of the 8-to-12 varsity will be a battle of the bands, spotlighting Clyde Bysom and Clayton Harbur. The bands will play alternately from their positions at either end of the ballroom.
Waling Dykstra, a Londoner who handled international trade for 17 cooperative wholesales in 14 countries until a war bomb destroyed his office, will address a meeting open to the public at 8 o'clock tonight in room 112 of Frank Strong hall and some con's got you.
He spoke to marketing classes in the School of Business at 11:30 and 1:30 today.
Spends Week in Jail But Sprees on Saturday
Teok Man Aside
For 10 years Dykstra was a staff member of de Handelskamer, a cooperative wholesale house in Rotterdam. He was born 45 years ago in the Friesian section of Holland. On Jan. 1, 1938, he went to London to take charge of the International Cooperative Trading Agency, an organization to handle imports and exports for cooperative wholesalers. Because the war virtually destroyed international cooperative trade, he resigned in September, 1940, a year after the war began, and came to America.
Battle of Bands Will Highlight Dandelion Varsity
Tonight's the night.
Since Jan. 6, Dykstra has been speaking in the territory served by the Consumers Cooperative Association of North Kansas City. Until the war intervened, the association did a considerable international trade through the agency Dykstra headed in London.
DENVER, March 27.—(UP)—"He has all the comforts of home without any of the responsibility," Patrolman Herald G. Spiva said today as he related how a Denverite lived on 50 cents a week in the city-jail—and enjoyed a weekly Saturday night spree besides.
Spiva discovered the strange practice, he said, when he noticed a bleary-eyed character—hereafter referred to as Bill—always showed up at police court Monday morning although he had spent the previous week in the hoose-gow.
for four bits a week? I can walk around in the bull pen and 'chin' with the boys and, on Saturday, out I go upptown just like anyone else." Bill continued.
"The first thing to do is to get yourself half a buck. You can generally do this by the pan-handling route," Bill explained patiently.
Spiva wanted to know how Bill could be assured of returning each Monday.
'Get Half a Buck'
"Then you can buy a quart of 49-cent wine, take a few snorts and start looking for some chums. You will always find some and mostly they'll have another quart or so.
"You get together and first thing you know you're all stiff as a board
and some cop's got you in the wagon. You wake up Monday in the can with an awful head, but you get used to that. Then, on Monday, you go to police court where you are fined $10 for being drunk. Sit Out the Rap
"You can sit out the rap in five days, which puts you free the next Saturday morning. Then, all you have to do is to start all over again,
Engineers Discuss Man and Nature
Protection against tempermental fits of man and nature was the topic for discussion at a meeting of the University chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers last night in Marvin hall. Robert Brockett, senior engineer, spoke on "The Construction of Bomb-proof Shelters," and Karl Riddle, senior engineer, spoke on "The Construction of Sea-walls in Florida."
Milam, McElFresh Announce Staff For K-Book
Nadine Hunt and Gabe Parks, college sophomores, will serve as assistant editors while Toby Brumbback, education sophomore, and J. Rex Watkins, college sophomore, will fill the assistant business manager positions.
One woman and three men have been selected as assistants on the K-Boko staff, Emily Jean Milam, editor, and Bob McElfresh, business manager, announced today.
Lawson To Lecture At Zoology Club Meeting
Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, lecturing on "Spiders," will be the featured speaker at the next meeting of the Snow Zoology club to be held Tuesday evening in room 220 of Snow hall.
The meeting will be preceded by a supper at 5.30. Reservations should be made at the zoology storeroom before Monday noon.
and sure as shootin' you're fixed for another week.
'Simple, ain't it?' concluded Bill. Spiva agreed it was.
"It's all swell as long as the price of the bottle don't go up," Bill philosophized.

Cassandras In Exile
FRIDAY, MARCH 28, 1941.
One of today's greatest champions of democracy is a former German citizen, who for many years taught liberalism to German students. Thomas Mann, whose name is becoming synomous with American thought, links himself these days with Americans who think that there is still hope for democracy as a workable antithesis for totalitarianism.
The United States should be glad to have Doctor Mann among those present, and should use his particular case as a warning of the cost of bigotry. Germany has lost a great man, and though exile is not a common American practice, Norman Thomas, Bertrand Russell, and Charles Lindberg all know what it is to get their fellows Americans mad at them. Mr. Thomas has had eggs thrown at him. Mr. Russell has aroused the ire of New York's anxious mothers, and Mr. Lindbergh and "Lucky Lindy" are no longer the same person.
Doctor Mann, who lives at present in Princeton, N.J., the neighbor of another famous exile, Dr. Albert Einstein, said some telling things about national bigotry and smugness in a letter to the dean of the University of Bonn after his honorary doctorship had been revoked.
"The German universities share a heavy responsibility for all the present distress which they called down upon their heads when they tragically misunderstood their historic hour, and allowed their soil to nourish the ruthless forces which have devastated Germany morally, politically and economically."
In "The Coming Victory of Democracy Doctor Mann also says, "It (democracy) should put aside the habit of taking itself for granted, of self-forgetfulness. Throughout the world it has become precarious to take democracy for granted."
Americans should strive today for a better understanding of conflicts and opposing forces within this country. We owe it to our form of government, government of the people, to see both sides of a problem, and see them tolerantly,
America Is Responsible For World Leadership
Henry R. Luce, editor of Time magazine effectively makes this point in an article titled, "The American Century." Although Americans have a feeling that collaboration with Great Britain means playing Britain's game the British are content to assume the role of junior partner to the United States. In the London Economist this statement appeared, "If any permanent closer association of Britain and the United States is achieved, an island of less than 50 millions cannot expect to be the senior partner. The center of gravity and the ultimate decision must increasingly lie in America."
America must reject isolationism for an internationalism which is a sharing of our Bill of Rights, Declaration of Independence, Constitution, industrial accomplishments, and scientific achievements. Mr. Luce visions world leadership for America in four areas of life, economic technical, charitable, and idealistic leadership for all peoples. Out of these four areas Mr. Luce believes that the American Century, the 20th century, can arise.
In 1919 the United States had the opportunity to assume world leadership, but the American people rejected the chance. What we failed to do then we must do now. For proof of America's present position of leadership we need only consider the war. Britain probably cannot win or even stalemate Hitler without American help. The United States is apparently the economic, artistic, and scientific capital of the world.
Mr. Luce's ideals are based on the assumption that England will win the war with the help the United States will give while demonstrating her world leadership. What Mr. Luce is really aiming for is a unity of the American public in aid to Britain. Whether we ever assume a position of world leadership depends on unity of action now.

You Said It
The editor of the Kansan welcomes letters of opinion from students and faculty members to be published in the letters column. If the writer wishes, his name will be withheld, but the Kansan must have the names of all writers of letters.—
Editor, the Daily Kansan:
By a mischance of geography millions of peaceable men, women, and children exist today on the battleground of the European war. What is to be done with them?
be done with them.
The leaders of Britain—along with certain practical Americans—have, with impeccable logic, concluded that a blockade of these trapped peoples may be a means of drafting them, by means of starvation, into a branch of the British army.
This starvation-conscripted mob of unarmed civilians will, it is calculated, finally go into desperate battle against German tanks and machine guns. At this point, as the Kansan nicely puts it: "Hitler will either have to kill to suppress revolt or feed subject peoples. Either process will hurt him."
If he hesitates at killing, he will be showing more compunction than do the calculators who present him with the problem. Is it wise to assume that he has the more tender conscience?
May not a consideration of long-run effects make Americans proud of their role in lifting the food blockade? Under present conditions, the suffering populaces in Europe might easily turn their resentment, not against Hitler, who is trying to break the blockade, but against the British, who are enforcing it. The reputation America may have for humanitarianism is its real, valid argument for the friendship of oppressed peoples everywhere. Let's not forsake our most precious attribute in order to aid in the conscription, by means of hunger, of while populations into a starving, resentful, suicide army too pitiable to imagine.—Yours truly, A Student.
ROCK CHALK TALK
By HEIDI VIETS
After showing the visitors through the kitchen, Mrs. Montgomery decided to show them the closet. She couldn't get the door open, so Lloyd Johnson came to her assistance. Lloyd forced it open slightly, looked inside, and announced that they would inspect the closet at a later date.
Frank Vratil was washing dishes in the Battenfeld kitchen last night minus shirt, when in walked Mrs. R. D. Montgomery, housemother, with some guests. Frank jumped into a nearby closet and closed the door.
Kappa Sig Jim Hall tells this story of his high school career. After missing school because of a severe case of pneumonia, he was confronted in the high school hall with the principal's daughter. She stared, then remarked, "Pardon me for looking at you queerly, but I thought you were dead."
Since he is a Summerfield scholar, Ted Young says it hurts his conscience to sleep late. Every night he sets his alarm for 5:30 a.m. At that time he's so sleepy, he sets it again for 6. At 6 o'clock the alarm runs clear down and still Ted doesn't get up. This goes on until 7:30. Then he gets up. He doesn't like to miss breakfast.
Last week was boom week for the library. Mary Belle Wallace will swear to it. Wednesday night she turned down a date to go to the midweek to do some outside readings at the library. She found all five books checked out, and after failing to find anyone asleep over one of the books, she started for home at 7:30.

Want Exercise?--Then
Visit Lab Block Factory in Hoch
Anyone wishing to visit the "block factory" in the basement of Hoch auditorium to see how the earth blocks for the Engineering Research laboratory are made, is at liberty to do so. But, as a warning, don't go when the foreman is short of help.
A Kansan reporter ventured in for a story, was handed a tamp by foreman Ralph Erwin, and given full instructions for tamping down the blocks.
Good Exercise
Lifting the 50-pound tamp up and down about 100 times may be good for reducing an oversize waistline, but for a person who considers bending over to tie his shoulder strenuous exercise, it is sheer torture. However, the reporter did make two blocks and extracted a promise from Erwin to have the blocks used as cornerstones.

Texas Wins M. V. Debate Tourney Here Yesterday
Texas University, winner of the Missouri Valley Forensics League debating contest here yesterday, lost its only decision to a University team composed of Russell Baker, and Dick Oliver, business juniors.
The Longhorn team was described by McKay, first year law, as "tops." McKay was chairman of the contests besides being the University freshman debate $ ^{ \textcircled{4}} $ coach.
The Texas team won nine out of ten debates for first place. Oklahoma University with eight out of ten, and Louisiana State University with seven out of ten took second and third places respectively. Kansas with six out of ten tied for fourth place with South Dakota and the combined team of Kansas (continued on next page)

World Famous Violinist Will Play In Hoch
A University of Kansas student would like Effrem Zimbalist, the Russian violinist who will appear in Hoch auditorium at 8:20 tomorrow night, even if he wasn't one of the most famous violinists in the world.
"Zimmie" as he is known to his friends has a penchant for many more things than music. Although it is true that evening parties at his home in New York usually begin with two hours of chamber music and a Bach double concerto, the evening often ends at dawn with a double-stakes poker game on the dining room table, according to his press notices.
If Effrem isn't gray-haired, he has a right to be. Keeping possession of his collection of violins which includes the famouse "Lamoreux"

Fritzi Likes It--- Gift Shop Operation Is More Fun Than College
By JOHN HARVEY
"College was never this much fun!" Fritzi Meyn, college freshman and Lawrence business woman since last Tuesday, declared yesterday afternoon in the Virginia May gift shop of which she is the manager, appointed by her father, Fritz Meyn.
Lawrence business man who purchased the shop early this week.
Deep in oil paintings, china, and Indian jewelry, Miss Meyn explained why she preferred to manage a gift shop rather than go to school.
"I thought some of studying nursing and I considered home economics but I just really wasn't interested in school at all," she said.
"To me this is a lot more than just selling things to people. Why every article in here has a story of its own. Many of them have come from foreign countries. This, for instance," she said, picking up a
Many of the imported goods carried in the shop came from countries that are now at war or are cut off by blockade, and when the present stocks are exhausted, a fresh supply cannot be obtained.
The busiest seasons of the year, according to Miss Meyn, are graduation time and Christmas.
Most people put off their Christmas shopping until about a week before Christmas but Miss Meyn will do hers next August at the Chicago gift show held in the Palmer House where she will do the buying for her shop.

Sollenberger Is Out of Hospital
Marvin Sollenberger, sophomore guard on the basketball team, was released from Watkins Memorial hospital yesterday morning where he has been confined since March 4.
Sollenberger entered the hospital after returning from Nebraska where he had played an important part in the victory over the Cornhuskers. He has been ill with monocleosis, commonly known as glandular fever. This disease affects the white blood cells and lymph glands and also undermines the resistance. "Solly" had been leaving the hospital for an hour a day to attend classes the past week.
Southern Loses

Northern Wins
Bill Southern, a former student here and now working for Uncle Sam at Randolph field, thought that with his name he be had a better than half chance to win the title of "Cadet having the Most Southern Drawl," in a contest held at the training school.
But just after his exhibition of talk which drapped with honey, up stepped his bosom buddy with a Tennessee accent thick as any Government issued shoe—and walked off with the title.
Southern's pal is named Bill Northern.
Victims Fail To Appear For Massacre
Dandelion Day has been postponed from April 2 to April 23.
The dandelions can thank their pesky natures in refusing to come up on time for the 21-day respite in their execution, said Dandelion Field Marshall Charles Wright.
So until the fourth Wednesday in the month, the dandelions can feel secure; Stan Schwahn can keep his theatre tickets; the Lawrence Sanitary Milk company can hold its 35 pints of ice cream, and the campus can get a little rest from the dandelion fever.
Another reason for postponing Dandelion Day was a telegram, allegedly from S. D. Flora, federal meteorologist, which was received by the committee yesterday morning.
The telegram read: "Low pressure area moving in from Idaho. Start smudge pots to protect growth of Taraxacum Officianle."
This telegram, delivered by phone to the Alumni Association office, and relayed from there to Charles Wright was enough to swing the wavering committee.
"It is the same as a business proposition. If you were digging dandelions on a business basis, I don't think it would be advisable to do it on April 2." Henry Werner, adviser of men, told Wright yesterday.
Plans for the new Dandelion Day will be nearly the same as those already announced except that more dandelions, more prizes, and a bigger and better time for all is expected, said Wright.
As he announced the 3-week postponement, Wright sported a dandelion boutonniere. He had found the yellow posy, after an extensive search, nestling near Dyche's protecting walls. Pointing at it, he chanted the following ditty to all further questions:
"Dandelion, dandelion
Dandelion, dandelion
First lil daisy I've seen tryin',
I wish my wish be not in vain,
April twenty-third, oh, bring no rain."

Party Bugs Go Paddling, Helling, and Dancing
In spring, there is that certain something that gives students the party bug. (Some Saturday the society staff is going to kick off and have a party instead of writing about them.)
Friday night the Dandelion Dance was held, although it didn't bring the dandelions. Last night the Sigma Nu freshmen and dates ousted the actives and had their annual paddle party. An informal dinner with paddles as place cards preceded dancing at the chapter house. Decorations were paddles with all the fraternity and sorority names on them.
The Sigma Phi Epsilon spring party was held in the Memorial Union ballroom last night. Clayton Harbin's band played under a large cardboard replica of the Sig Ep pin. The ten Hill sororities' pins were represented above the pillars around the dance floor. Stretted from each pin to the ceiling were crepe paper streamers of each sorority's colors. To one side of the ballroom a garden scene with a wishing well and love seats added to the spring atmosphere.

Hall Homers In Batting Practice
Some of the Haskell Indian ball players dropped in at the Jayhawk practice session yesterday afternoon, and both teams engaged in batting drills.
Ed Hall, the Kansas catcher, swung a potent bat during the session and lined out four clean hits, including a triple and a home run. Ramie Beims and Bob Allen hit doubles, while Allen Nipper collected a triple and single during the afternoon.
Knute Kresie, John Burge, and Allen pitched during the batting practice. Allen was struck on the head with a ball going into second, and had to retire.
The lineup which opened the workout for the Jayhawks consisted of Hall, catcher; Kresie, pitcher; Nipper, first base; Al Wabaunsee, second base; Bob Homer, third base; John Krum, shortstop; Beims, left field; Larry Johnston, center field; and Red Thompson, right field.

Hold Scrimmage In Cold Stadium
After another week of drilling on the practice field, the Jayhawk footballers moved over to the stadium Friday and held a long scrimmage. In spite of the cold north breeze, a number of fans lined the field to see for themselves just what Gwinn Henry will have in the way of football talent next year.
And they got an eyeful of spinner-wing formations, fine freshman backs, and smashing defensive play. Henry divided the squad into Red and Gold-shirted teams with the Reds taking
Liremen starting for the Reds were Hub Ulrich, pass-catching veteran, and Bob Hagen at end; Warren Hodges and Frank Baker, freshmen tackles; Bob Fluker and Joe Crawford at guards; and Walt Sheridan at center. Backs were Ray Niblo and Ray Evans, wing-

and Marv Vandeaveer, quarterback.
Shift Players Often
Opening for the Golds were Dick Wilson and Herb Curran, freshman ends; Bill Kern and Bill McGrew, tackles; Harold Van Slyck and Tom O'Neil, guards; and Paul Hardman, center. Defensive backs were Ed Vandaveer, Ed Bray, Bert Coleman, and Bill Mahoney.
Henry shifted the lineups frequently and gave most of the players a chance to play. The Red team would take the ball on about their own 25-yard line and would drive the length of the field for a touchdown, and then would repeat the process all over again.
Requires Perfect Timing
It was a real test for the spinner-double wing formation, which back-fired occasionally, but worked beautifully at other times. The formation requires split-second timing especially by the quarterback who handles the ball on every play. Several times, defensive guards broke through and smeared the quarterback before he could get rid

Guns versus Butter
Defense to the utmost seems to have been accepted as a common goal in this country. Yet there continues to be much democratic discussion and vagueness as to how and when it can be paid for. Should these vast expenditures be met through borrowing or taxation? Is inflation inevitable? Must we face lower living standards now; or will the burden perhaps fall on our children?
BY FINN B. JENSEN Instructor of Economics
The first essential is to calculate in terms of productive resources rather than money expenses. Defense materials can take shape only through the combination of land, labor, and capital. To the extent that the defense production utilizes human and material resources that would otherwise have turned out goods for consumers, there must result lower living standards right now. But we must not forget in the confusion of the moment, that our paramount economic problem prior to the war was that of unemployment—idle men and idle machinery. We have a vast store of otherwise unutilized resources that have not been contributing to our standards of consumption. Hence as long as this unemployment slack is still being taken up we can in general quantitative terms have our guns and our butter too. Likewise any improvement in productive efficiency will, in this sense, enable the "costless" production of armaments.
Specifically, we still have labor unemployment of perhaps between six and seven million at a time when the estimated eighty billion dollar national income for 1941 represents a ten billion dollar increase over 1940. Thus it is not unlikely that full utilization of our resources will achieve a national income, at present prices, of over ninety billion dollars. Now as long as that level of national income can support armaments on top of existing living standards, it is not necessary to reduce total consumption. It is only when full employment has been reached that resources in general will have to be diverted from the production of consumer goods to that of defense goods.
Bottlenecks Increasing
Meanwhile, however, there are conspicuous and growing "bottlenecks," or scarcities at specific points, in our productive capacity. Certain consumer goods' industries compete with the armament industry for scarce raw materials and labor skills. Also some plants now used for durable consumers' goods, like automobiles, might be utilized for defense purposes. And there are glaring cases, as with machine tools, where the turnout of producers' goods is scarcely adequate for peacetime requirements, and hence becomes a serious bottleneck in the defense program. In cases of this type specific selective controls are required right now to limit civilian consumption. This means curtailing the consumption of certain products, but not of goods in general.
We cannot keep money out of the discussion indefinitely. Whatever the burden is in terms of resources, the defense program must be financed now, and there is always the potential danger of inflation. Inflation emerges when the stream o fdollar expenditures is growing faster than the quantity of goods produced. Now so long as previously idle resources are being utilized, the amount of consumers' goods can grow in response to the growing income, and prices need not rise. But when the point is reached where the production of armaments can proceed only at the expense of consumption goods, the way is open for inflation with all its disruptive influences on the economic system. Expanding production, whether for guns or butter, expands consumer money income; and this income will be spent regardless of the amount of available consumer goods, unless part of it is taken away by the government. Hence much depends upon whether the defense program is financed from new money or from money taken from consumers through taxes or borrowing.
Public Should Pay
At the present time there is general agreement that defense should be paid for by a combination of borrowing and taxation. The printing of paper money has been rejected because it would lead to ruinously high prices. Likewise it is agreed that as we approach full employment, governmental borrowing should be directly from real savings of the consuming public, rather than from the banks in the form of credit expansion.
Meanwhile there continues to be disagreement over the most desirable proportion of taxation to borrowing. We should be careful not to restrict production while still expanding toward full employment, either through undue restriction of credit creation or taxes discouraging either to enterprise or consumers. It is possible, for example, that the payroll tax recently advocated might curtail consumption to a degree not necessary at the present time. The social justice of the proposal, moreover, cannot be appraised without reference to the adequacy of existing excess profits taxes and taxes on higher incomes. The level of income tax rates has already been materially increased. Also as long as the national income is still rising, there will be an automatic increase in government revenue under the present tax rates.
Although the threat of general inflation is mitigated by the existence of unemployment, the numerous bottlenecks mentioned above may at any time develop runaway price tendencies. In a highly sensitive and interrelated economy these could, if uncontrolled, easily lead to widespread inflation. Hence the necessity of immediate selective price controls, which can assume a variety of forms such as priorities, rations, maximum prices, and specialized purchase taxes aimed at curtailing the consumption of particular goods.
Burden On Us
The actual size of the debt is not important either for the attainment of maximum production now, or as a burden to future generations. To the extent that we tax now the ultimate distribution of the defense sacrifice as between classes of people will be determined now; to the extent that we borrow, that decision will be postponed. But in either event the sacrifices of war in terms of guns rather than butter is being levied on all of us now, irrespective of the size of the debt, and cannot be shifted to a future generation.
Thus it is essential that a clear cut distinction be drawn between types of inflation. Price control refers, on the one hand, to the methods by which the government chooses to finance the defense program, and thus to influence the whole stream of consumer expenditures. It is related on the other hand to those specific shortages which tend to develop irrespective of the general level of prices.

Student Paper of THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Lawrence, Kansas
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Subscription rates, in advance, $3.00 per year, $1.75 per semester. Published at Lawrence, Kansas, daily during the school year and held on Monday and Tuesday, second semester September 17, 1910; the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1879.
You Said It
The editor of the Kansan welcomes letters of opinion from students and faculty members to be published in the letters column. If the writer wishes, his name will be withheld, but the Kansan must have the names of all writers of letters—
To the Editor of the Daily Kansan:
I am frankly confused about the relative importance of two problems of student concern on the campus.
On one hand I see Charles Wright and Chancellor Mallott feverishly planning for a big celebration picking dandelions, carnivalizing, and street dancing. Teams are being organized (Chuck hopes). Fox Movietone (or somebodies tones) are being invited, and everybody has a big day with no classes to worry about. Maybe the Saturday classes will make up for the lack of April 2nd lessons!
On the other hand for the past two weeks, Paul Gilles, Sue Johnston, and John Moore have been trying to get two people, a student and a faculty member, to cooperate in heading up a committee for the World Student Service Fund drive that should be held on the campus before very long. The WSSF is similar to the drive of last year for the Chinese students, with the exception it concerns students in war-torn countries throughout the world. Apparently no one is at all interested in helping feed and clothes fellow-students in less fortunate countries.-Signed, Lloyd Estes.
Pan Chung Hsiang---
If you saw a young man at the first midweek last fall eyeing the dancers with wondering glances, you probably weren't watching just another "green freshman" but Pan Chung Hsiang of Honan, China.
Chinese Student Prefers Midweeks To Bandits
In China, Pan's father was a great land owner before the Japanese occupation of the region. Now all the farmers are forced to live in the cities or villages to protect themselves from the bandits. Yes, we said bandits, but not bandits-a-la-American. The bandits of China live as roving bands in the hills surrounding the farming regions, but they have no high powered automobiles equipped with machine guns. Bandits Kidnap Men
It is not surprising that Pan—in the United States his name is written as C. H. Pan—should be curious about the whole proceedings of a typical midweek, because before he arrived in Lawrence last September he had never seen two people dance American fashion. in China great importance is attack ed to any r
These bandits do their work on foot, stealing cattle in broad daylight and kidnapping men by night. A two- or three-thousand dollar ransom is demanded from the family of the kidnapped man if he is to be returned safely. Few Chinese families have such a large amount in the household coffer, but because
In Caliofnia, Pan went first to Stanford University, but President Blackwelder sent him to K. U. with the recommendation that "it was the best place in the United States to (continued to page eight)
Fan came to the United States on a scholarship from the China Foundation, a fund set up from the indemnity money that China paid the United States after the Boxer Rebellion. The money was returned to China with the stipulation that it be used to send Chinese students to this country for advanced study. "Go to K. U."-Blackwelder.
in China great importance is attached to any relative, the family must raise the money ro bear the wrath of the gods upon themselves as well as the loss of the kidnapped member. There is no civil law to be exercised against these bandits and the natives are unarmed and entirely unorganized.
ROCK CHALK TALK
George Bonebreak, Rock Chalk Co-op, has a money-making plan for spring. He is working on a device to be sold to every picnic-lover. The invention is, essentially, a cross between a St. Bernard dog and a portable radio, the finished product being a four-legged receiving set which can follow along behind pionicking couples.
By HEIDI VIETS
At the Delta Chi house Charles Wright is becoming known as "Feature Man" because of the publicity he has gotten on the dandelion drive and county club work. Latest reports are that he will soon engage in a scrapbook weighing contest with Hitler.
At the Jayhawk Co-op John Anderson is doing his best to see that the dandelion team of Eugene Nininger wins the contest, April 23. In his acetylene welding class he is going to make enough dandelion-digging tools for the entire team. He makes the blades from strap iron, sharpens them, then welds on a section of a half inch pipe for a handle.
Another Co-op tricky joe is Eugene Dix at Rock Chalk, who sent in some Wheaties box-tops to get Jack Armstrong a pedometer. The gadget fastens on his belt to measure how far he walks.
While housecleaning yesterday, Don Atchison found that the task requires one-fourth mile of walking.

Jakosky Predicts Big Enrollment
J. J, Jakosky, dean of the school of the School of Engineering and Architecture, predicted yesterday that there will be a large increase in enrollment next fall in engineering and allied fields due to the increased demand firm defense industries for engineers.
According to a statement by Jakosky five calls have come to the University asking for every available engineer.
This statement is in keeping with a report from the United States Office of Education that 50,000 engineers are now needed for defense jobs and only 12,000 engineers are available.
In keeping pace with the increased demand for engineers the University this spring instituted a full four year course leading to a degree in aeronautical engineering. An unusually large enrollment is expected for this department next fall.
the departments of geology, physics, and chemistry also will have an increased enrollment Jakosky said.

Jakosky Brings Plea For Zinc
The federal government has appealed to the headquarters of the Kansas State Geological Survey located here for assistance in prospecting for new fields of zine, it was announced yesterday by Dr. R.M.Dreyer, head of the survey.
There is an acute shortage of zinc in the United States and this shortage is becoming of growing concern to the Army and Navy.
The appeal for assistance was brought directly from Washington by J. J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering and Architecture.
The tri-state area of southeastern Kansas, northeastern Oklahoma, and southwestern Missouri, is the most important zinc deposit in the United States, and according to officials of the Geological Survey there is a large amount of territory in Kansas to be prospected.
On April 8 there will be a meeting of the Zinc and Lead Producers Association together with the Geological Survey- and members of the University School of Engineering and Architecture to launch the project.
The project is of such great importance that it is possible that material assistance from the government may be forthcoming, according to a recent statement by J. C. Nichols, former Kansas City realtor now associated with federal war industries promotion in Washington.
Haul Dirt
****
For Shrubs
Are you wondering about those piles of dirt in front of the Union building?
George M. Fisher, landscape gardener of the University, says the dirt will be used to replace soil which will be removed from around the Union building. The thin top soil on Mount Oread, he explained, is not suitable for shrubs to grow in. Hence rich dirt must be brought in.
This is but one part of a large-scale program to landscape the campus.
The same thing was done before the circle at the west end of Campus drive was planted. Also work has been started on the lawn in front of Frank Strong hall and around the new steps south of Spooner-Thayer museum.
In the past, rich soil has been hauled from the Robinson farm, a distance of five miles; but the dirt which has been deposited in front of the Union, and that which will be used in front of Frank Strong, is being obtained from the excavation on the site of the new R.O. T.C. building on the south slope of the campus.
Plans for the Union landscaping call for 28 different varieties of shrub. At present, the planting will be in the front and on the south side of the Union building, because of the possibility that an extension will be built onto the north side of the building.
NOTICE
J. J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering, asks that engineering seniors who expect to be graduated in June report to his office to check transcripts.

the project, estimates that the
tellers will turn out around 6,500 feet
of face rock. Algire added that the
cut stone would be supplemented
by nearly 800 tons of ruble rock
recently exposed near the planned site
for the building.
Algire said that he was well satisfied with the progress of the project so far, and that he was sure that the building would easily be completed within the previously estimated twelve months.
Most recent advances made to- ward the completion of the job are a new supply house, and the extension of water service to the location of the work.
Algire said that the main difficulty confronting the project at present are production bottlenecks in vital building materials. However, he is confident that such scarcities could be overcome without too much loss in time.
WORLD FAMOUS—
Stradivarius and an almost equally valuable Guadagnini has at times been a difficult task. Some time ago while playing in a Los Angeles concert hall, his Guadagnini was stolen. As Zimbalist was scheduled for an Oriental tour he had to sail without the violin. A short time later the Guadagnini was offered for sale to the Chicago representative of Rudolph Wurlitzer who had himself sold it to Zimbalist.
But Rudolph Wurlitzer recognized the violin as Zimbalist's, called the police and cabled Zimbalist who was in Australia, that his violin had been recovered.
Zimbalist cabled back his thanks and asked to have the precious instrument shipped to him. However the courts of Los Angeles wanted it for evidence and by the time it reached Australia the violinist was on his way to Japan. After much cable consultation and custom house red tape, it was packed off to Tokyo. From then on the Guadagnini followed Zimbalist much as Evangeline pursued the trail of her lost lover. It missed him in Tokyo, Singapore, Shanghai, Manila, Calcutta, Bombay, Madras and again at Sidney.
At this point Zimbaliist ordered the violin sent to his home. Several weeks later Zimbalist on his return from Europe found the violin at his home none the worse for its travels. Zimbalists' program for Monday is:
"Chaccone" (Vitali); "Concerto in D Minor" (Bruch), in three movements; "Poeme" Chausson); and "Sarasatean" (Zimbalist), a group of six Spanish dances.
Vladimir Sokoleff will accompany Zimbalist at the piano.

It was voted by the faculty of the School of Education Tuesday to invite Chancellor Deane W. Malott, the Board of Regents to join them in coferring these degrees and diplomas.
John William Crutcher and Margaret Murlee Shaw will receive both the degree of B. S. in Education and the University Teachers' diploma. Sara Jane Graham, Ruth Louise Mercer and Maxine Patterson will receive the University Teachers' diploma.
The other debaters for the University were Emmett Park, college senior, and Crier Stewart, college junior.
This is the first year that the University has failed to place among the top three in the debating contest, said Prof. E. C. Buehler of the speech department.

In China, the ordinary meal consists of meat and potatoes, or some other vegetable, boiled together, and a coarse bread. In the southern part of the country, however, rice replaces bread in the diet and provides the major portion of the daily fare.
"Americans are O. K. with me," said Pan. smiling at his successful use of the phrase, "but I don't think they should have sent scrap metal to Japan."
