Jayhawks Seek Revenge UNIVERSITY Daily Kansan 39TH YEAR LAWRENCE, KANSAS,TUESDAY, JANUARY 6, 1942 NUMBER 65 Tucker Incident, 'Pros' Phog Allen, Drake Scrap By MILO FARNETI Kansan Managing Editor They came out of their corners in Hoch auditorium this morning with no holds barred and Texas rules in force. The two combatants, Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, plain-spoken Kansas basketball coach, and youthful Bruce Drake, equally plain-spoken Oklahoma mentor, gave their sides of the Geraid Tucker "migrant athlete" controversy with Jack Gardner, Kansas State coach, coming in for condemnation. Before the situation grows much older, four battle camps will have been formed: Oklahoma, Kansas, Kansas State, and the Big Six faculty athletic council. An ordinary pep rally was scheduled for today with the Kansas basketball team going through the "pepping up" process for the crucial, opening Big Six game with Oklahoma tonight. Toward the end of his speech, Doctor Allen, who had previously not mentioned the Tucker controversy, threw back Oklahoma Athletic Director Jap Haskell's statement that "It smells worse than Pearl Harbor," with "They (Oklahoma) act like the Japs did at Pearl Harbor." After Allen had spoken, Drake and his basketball squad walked to the front of Hoch Auditorium. Drake asked Doctor Allen for permission to speak. Allen offered Drake the floor. Drake opened by saying that Oklahoma felt that Tucker had been done a great injustice. "We will see that he is given a fair trial before the Big Six athletic council. We will present our side of the case and accept the council's decision." During his speech, Allen accused Haskell and Drake of conducting a school for professional athletes. He charged that Haskell used his scout's job with the Boston Red Sox to attract baseball players to Oklahoma. Doctor Allen asserted that Lester Layton, former Wichita North baseball star, roomed at Coach Drake's house and that other inducements were offered Layton. "I expect to present Layton's name to the athletic council and ask why Layton can play with the Oklahoma baseball team and draw a salary from the Boston Red Sox," Allen said. Oklahoma is developing more professional than amateur athletes, Allen said. "Bruce Drake himself was a subsidized athlete." "That the Tucker incident was timed is false. The Big Six rules were plain. Oklahoma had no business taking Tucker to New York and playing him contrary to the conference laws." Allen declared. Denke asserted that, the Seasor Drake asserted that the Sooner athletic council has demanded a meeting with Allen and Gardner and Tucker present to investigate the facts. He said, "This boy has not been undermined by any utility as Allen has stated. We have asked for proof and none has been forthcoming. We have asked Kansas State of any irregularities that Tucker committed in transferring from Manhattan to Oklahoma and have not received any reply." "We were all set for Tucker to come to Oklahoma. I saw Tucker at Winfield before he went to Kansas State. Gerald's brother, Lloyd, told me that his kid brother was coming to Oklahoma. Lloyd was the only person who persuaded Gerald to jump Kansas State. "When Tucker wished to transfer schools, Kansas State held him on the campus against his wishes. His mother had to come from Winfield to take him off the campus. "While Gerald was contemplating moving, Jack Gardner sent a telegram to Lloyd saying that everything was all right and signed it, 'Gerald Tucker.'" The Sooner coach said that Gardner tried to get Tucker to go to Southern California, his alma mater, if he decided against enrolling at Kansas State. "He didn't want Tucker at any Big Six school where he would have to play against Kansas State." They Figure in 'Love' Triangle--- A. S.

By CHUCK ELLIOTT Kansan Sports Editor ★★ CHARLIE BLACK A "Tucker-less" band of Oklahoma Sooners will take the floor in Hoch auditorium at 7:30 o'clock tonight in the opening Big Six game of the season for both schools. Evidence that the game may produce more than the usual number of thrills was given this morning at a pep convocation when a battle of words ensued between the coaches of the rival quintets, Bruce Drake of Oklahoma and Forrest C. "Phog" Allen of the Jayhawkers. AM Besides the added incentive for the Sooners to win the game for Gerald Tucker, their star center who has been suspended from athletic participation this semester, the Oklahoma crew will be out to protect and increase their record of defeating the Kansans. Roosevelt Announces An A.E.F. ★ ★ ★ (Compiled from Radio Dispatches) President Roosevelt speaking to both houses of Congress at 11:30 o'clock this morning told the nation what to expect in the coming year. Half the nation's income or approximately $50,000,000,000 will be spent on the war effort during 1942 Roosevelt further said that American Expeditionary Forces would soon be sent to all parts of the world, including the British Isles. The official Dutch radio in a broadcast this morning said that General Wavell, commander of the fighting forces of the United Nations in the Pacific area, would establish headquarters soon on the island of Java in the Dutch East Indies group. Early today Japanese planes attacked the American held positions on the island of Luzon in the Philippines losing seven out of fifty bombers. Japan said ground forces were still feeling out American troop positions trying to find a weak spot in the Yankee lines. Only Three Home Defeats Only three times during the last six years has an invading team defeated the Jayhawks at Lawrence. The records show 49 victories for Kansas, as against those three defeats. Oklahoma is the villain of the piece in the eyes of Lawrence basketball fans. The Sooners downed the Jay- BULLETIN the possibility that Gerald Tucker might play tonight against Kansas arose late this afternoon when it was learned from an authoritative source that the Oklahoma athletic board met today and may decide to play Tucker in defiance of the Big Six ruling. In such a case Tucker would be flown to Lawrence for the game. The Kansan learned that Tucker's playing equipment is in Lawrence although he is not. Bruce Drake was not available for a comment at four o'clock this afternoon. If Tucker is played tonight the game will be played under protest, Dr. Forrest C. Allen, Kansas coach, said this afternoon. hawks on the K.U. court in 1938 and then again last March. In between those two defeats the Kansas teams rolled up a string of 26 straight wins at home. The Oklahomaans also have defeated the Jayhawkers the past three times the schools have met at Norman. The record for the past four years, including the play-off game at Wichita in 1939, shows five victories for the Sooners and only four for the Jayhawks. Oklahoma Wins Two The records of the two teams vary considerably, both in success and the number of games played.

Fire Ousts Beta's From Frat House Forty-nine Beta Theta Pi's are now living in separate rooms scattered over town instead of under one roof, owing to a fire at the fraternity house, 1425 Tennessee, on Christmas day. Four men are still staying in the undamaged portion of the house, however, and members of the fraternity are eating noon and evening meals at the house. Those now living in the partially destroyed structure are Jim Surface, Dick Pierce, Frank Arnold, and Don Mitchell. Before the fire there were 53 living in the house. The fire, of unknown origin, badly damaged the house. The blaze started on the floor of a second-story room and spread upward to the third floor. The library and trophy room on the first floor of the house were also damaged when the fire burned through the second story floor. Furniture in the south part of the house was damaged by smoke, flames, and water. Students' clothing, books, and notes were damaged also. None of the members of the fraternity who live at the house were staying there over the vacation. The fire was discovered by neighbors across the street. Beta Theta Pi reports that the insurance will cover the damage. Fire Chief Paul Ingels suffered an injury to his right knee when he fell while directing the fighting of the blaze. The chief fell about 18 feet when a portion of the second floor gave way and caused him to drop to the floor below. The house was once the home of John Phillip Usher, Secretary of the Interior under Abraham Lincoln. Scotch Varsity Tomorrow The regular Scotch Varsity will be held in the Memorial Union ballroom from 7 to 8 o'clock tomorrow night, Keith Spalding, chairman of the Student Union Activities Board, announced today.

Two or three stories, by their very size and importance, could not be questioned for top honors, but from then on, the choice was more difficult. By leafing through Kansan files, and then by process of elimination, the following ten were chosen—take your pick: 1. The Seventy-fifth Anniversary. During the anniversary the Hill was transformed into a multi-ringed circus of pageantry, reunions, etc. Dyche Museum was reopened for the first time in eight 1947 years; graduates who had earned fame in diverse fields came back for the ceremonies—Ben Hibbs, Harold D. Smith, Alexander Wetmore being just a few of them; class reunions were held; exhibits of various University departments were staged, and to be unconventional and bizarre in phrasing, a big time was had by all. 5. The announcement of L. N. "Daddy" Flint's retirement as head of the department of journalism, April 29. The Dean of American Journalists stepped down from a position he held for 25 years, during which time he had guided K.U. journalists to a high place in collegiate journalism. 3. Bob McKay, Pachacamac's candidate for president of the MSC, nosed out rival Jim Burdge by a 25-vote margin, in the April 24 election. McKay lost the 1940 election to Bill Farmer, after a disputed election that found Farmer the winner by one vote. 2. The holiday strike. Most of us get a big laugh when thinking back to that seventeenth day of November, but what might have happened—but it didn't, and—hey, did we get double cuts for that?? 4. None of us will soon forget the wild and wooly Frank Merriwell finish of the K.U.-K-State football game, when the passing arm of Ralph Miller and the scared-rabbit sprinting of junior-sized Denzel Gibbens overcame a tough determined band from Manhattan. 6. Taking the bitter with the sweet, we will remember how a tall, capable basketball team from the wilds of Oklahoma spoiled K.U.'s chances for number one spot in the Big Six race, in our last conference game of the year, Mar. 7. 7. The decision of dance manager Fred Littioy to cancel the traditional Senior Cakewalk due to inability to sign a good band until exam time, May 8. (continued to page seven) 8.

Simon took his physical examination at Leavenworth yesterday and expects to be inducted into the Army within the next few days. He is at present sports editor of the Coffeyville Journal.) You know those scenes in the movies when the gigolo is making love to the hero's wife and you have a feeling that Mr. H. is about ready to walk in? Well, that's just how I felt when Phog Allen was making those statements about Bruce Drake in convocation this morning. Dr. Bruce Drake in conversation this morning, "Wouldn't it be good if Brucie were in the audience," I mused while cocking an ear from the balcony. And just about that time the Sooner "Shanghai" walked onto the arena floor. haier" walked onto the arena floor. Doctor Allen had his coat in his arms and placed it on the chair beside him. Drake peeled off his chocolate-colored topcoat and laid it down. The two rival basket coaches were stripping for action. DRAKE WAS EAGER TO TALK Allen called off the Rock Chalk with a wave of the hand and marched to the mike to introduce the young Oklahoma coach and let him say a few words. All Drake's squad paced to the front of the student gallery and sat down across from the players they'll face in tonight's Big Six cage opener. In this auditorium when we did" Drake began. "I was very glad we came into this auditorium when we danced. Bruce hadn't needed to rub his ears to take out the sting when he came in from the nippy outdoors. They were burning plenty. Phog had wound up his talk by saying that Bruce Drake was a subsidized athlete. By saying that Oklahoma's Jap Haskell had connections with the Boston Red Sox and had a ball player in school by the name of Lester Layton, who was being paid from the fabulous bankroll of the Bosox's Tom Yawkey. He'd accused Oklahoma of kidnapping Gerald Tucker, middle-man in the current Big Six squabble. Phog said "Oklahoma calls this a Pearl Harbor incident. I say Oklahoma is acting like the Japs did at Pearl Harbor." (Continued to page 5) (continued from page one) defeated 36 to 35 in the opening game and the next night the cagers trampled Bethel College at Newton under a 61 to 28 count. Jayhawks Seek Revenge---as a sophomore and junior but over the Christmas holidays he improved considerably. Potentially the great- not yet tuned to the basket but est scorer on the team, his eye is he is due to hit any time. The Sooners on the other hand have played five games but have won only two. In the first game the Oklahomaans surprised by running up a 57 to 34 count against Southern Methodist. Tucker scored 19 points and A. D. "Chattering Ug" Roberts tallied 14. Drake's squad then went on an eastern tour which saw only one victory gained, that against George Washington University. Tucker again led with 14 points. Mitch Simon, substitute guard and the only senior on the squad, tallied five points. Lose All In East The three losses were to St. Johns College in Madison Square Garden, De Paul University at Chicago, and Bradley Tech at Peoria, Ill. Tucker made 19, 14, and 11 points respectively in these losses. Roberts scored eight, eight, and nine points in each game. Against Bradley Tech Richard Reich, center, scored 11 points. Oklahoma features an extremely young team this year with Simon the only senior on the squad. Five other lettermen are returning this year but these are not the ones that Drake is banking upon to carry him through a successful season. In the starting line-up which was used most frequently in their opening five games, three sophomores were included. The other two members were both regulars last year, Paul Heap and Roberts. Heap plays guard and specializes in hawking the ball and rebounds. He is a quiet, popular fellow and a real team player. He was all-state at Central High in Tulsa. Roberts is the hustler and chatterbox of the team. When he is hot, he is apt to score six or eight field goals on any team. With Tucker out of the lineup tonight, the offensive burden will be on Robert's shoulders. He has averaged 8.2 points in five games this year. Outstanding among the sophomores "eligible" to play tonight is Richard Reich. He is potentially the best sophomore now on the squad. Bob McCurdy is the sophomore guard and an all-around athlete. Replacing Tucker in the line-up tonight will probably be Tom Rousey. He played very little last year because of an injured knee. He is a former all-state player from Illinois and played wing-back on Oklahoma's gridiron team this fall. Black Will Start Kansas' starting line-up tonight will be the third which Allen has used in three games. Starting for the first time in his college career will be Charlie Black, lanky, black-haired sophomore. Black has averaged nine points in the two games thus far and has been, along with John Buescher, the hottest man in practice the past few days. At the other forward slot will be Ralph "Cappy" Miller. He has not yet demonstrated the form which made him so valuable to the team At the center or "quarterback" position will be the sweetest ball-handler on the team. He is John Thin Man" Buescher. Bisch has been hitting all types of shots in practice, with his specialty being a one-handed shot which is nearly horizontal in its flight with very little arch. Solly Is Captain The guards have proved to be strictly defensive thus far. The acting captain for tonight's game will be Marvin Sollenberger, only returning regular from last year. He is a steady player who concentrates on defense more than he does upon his own scoring. Aonther sophomore, the third, breaks into the starting lineup at guard. He is Ray Evans, former all-state player from Wyandotte. Evans has not yet hit his stride this season, most of his shots rimming the hoop and dropping out. He is expected to aid the offense as well as hold down his defensive position later in the season when his basket eye improves. Allen will have plenty of capable substitutes to rush into the game at the first sign of weakness by any of his starting players. At guards, T. P. Hunter and Charlie Walker, (continued to page five) Gerald Tucker Ineligible For Play This Month After the storm of protest from Norman, the loop faculty heads got together and went over the entire case yesterday, softening the verdict of the eligibility trio. In order to clear Tucker now, Lawrence "Jap" Haskell, Oklahoma University athletic director, must write to M. F. Ahearn of Kansas State asking if the Aggles have any objections to Tucker's transfer. If Ahearn voices no objections, Tucker will be eligible for competition during the second semester. Gerald Tucker's future as a Big Six athlete rests entirely up to the Kansas State athletic department, it was decided by the conference's faculty committee at Kansas City yesterday. Under the decision handed down by the eligibility jury of Dr. W. W. Davis of Kansas, H. H. King of Kansas State and H. D. Bergman of Iowa State, Tucker would be forever banned from competition in the Big Six. Tucker is barred during this semester under the rule that requires an athlete to be in residence two complete academic semesters before he may compete in varsity athletics. It's a cinch that Titanic Tuck won't play here tonight, nor will he play any more this semester. However, if the Wildecat school clears Tucker of the "migrant athlete" charge pinned on him by the Big Six eligibility board last week, he will be ready to take his place with the Sooner cage team beginning next semester.

After eking out a one-point victory over the Denver University Pioneers, the Kansans changed scoring tactics the next night and made the contest a rout. Sophomore Jack Ballard led the scoring parade by dunking 1x field goals through the hoop and adding one free throw for 13 points. John Buescher and Vance Hall were not far behind as they registered 11 and 10 points respectively. Only 6 Points Against Varsity The Gray Maroons were held scoreless from the field for the first eight minutes of the game, the Jayhawks leading 10 to 2 at that point. The starting line-up left the game after ten minutes with the score 18 to 6 in their favor. Four of Bethel's six points were by free throws. Charlie Black and Ballard each made three goals in the next minutes to help increase the Kansas lead to 33-16 at halftime. The starting line-up of Hall, Buescher, Ralph Miller, Marvin Sollenberger, and Ray Evans started again at the second half and scored 14 points while holding Bethel scoreless for the first six and one-half minutes. Black Scores For Bethel At this point Coach "Phog" Allen sent these five players to the showers and played the remaining 13 players on the squad. Oddity of the game occurred immediately after the first team left the game. The officials lined the two centers up in the wrong direction. Kansas got the tip and Black dribbled in for a Bethel goal before anyone could stop him, although Bethel players did try to block the shot. After scoring this basket for the Newton team, the referees let the Grey Maroons take the ball in under their own basket and this resulted in another Bethel goal. Despite these four gift points Coach "Ots" Unruh's crew was too small and inexperienced to cope with the rang Jayhawkers who pulled away from their opponents on the basis of their many tip-ins and their ability to control the rebounds. "B" Team Wins Easy Too In the first game of the evening the Jayhawker "B" squad romped to an easy 33 to 10 victory over a poor Bethel "B" outfit. Kansas was leading 15 to 0 with 30 seconds to play in the first half when Ralph Kroeker scored a field goal for Bethel's only point of the half. KANSAS (61) g ft mft f tp R.

The last time the Jayhawk cage maestro engaged in forensics with a rival coach was at the national rules meeting two years ago when he and Nat Holman of New York's City College discussed, heatedly, the virtues of basketball as played in the East and in the West. That came out of a clear sky, just as this morning's platform duel. Bruce further stated that when Tucker decided at mid-semester he did not wish to continue his work at Kansas State, Gardner tried to get the Winfield star to go to the University of Southern California. (Jack is a U.S.C. grad and also his Aggies wouldn't have to face Gerald, if he were on the coast.'

Totals 4 2 5 15 to Haltime score — Kansas 15, Bethel SPORTIN' AROUND--- INSIDE DOPE REVEALED BY COACH He claimed that Kansas State "held" Tucker in Manhattan against his will" and that Jack Gardner, the Wildcat coach, sent a letter to Titantic Tuck's brother, Lloyd, at Bartlesville, saying "Everything is alright" and signing Gerald's name to it. Drake didn't present any arguments supporting his belief that Gerald was "the victim of an incident wholly un-American." He didn't refer to the section in the Big Six rules that says an athlete must be in residence two semesters before he is eligible for varsity competition. However, he did come back with some inside stuff on the Tucker affair that hadn't been in the public prints. The question of what to do about Big Six conference sports during the war emergency is due for an airing when conference faculty representatives and athletic directors meet sometime this month, probably in Kansas City. War May Change Athletic Set-up Plans are already in progress in conference administrative circles, which indicated that definite action may be taken at the meeting. Three sources will have possible cues for Big Six action: Dr. H. H. King, Kansas State College, chairman of the conference faculty committee, will report on the recent meeting of the National Collegiate Athletic association in Detroit; a suggestion may arise from the meeting of the American college and university presidents in Baltimore, Md.; and, then too, the government may offer its own suggestions in regard to collegiate sports. The proposition of making freshmen eligible for variety competition is sure to arise, officials think. This would provide the schools concerned with a wider source of material, since the older youths will be subject to draft call. Also likely to be considered is the question of minor sports. Many schools in the conference are expected to reduce spring schedules. Science Bulletin Prints University Research Results A new edition of "The University of Kansas Science Bulletin" was released during the holidays. This publication contains the printed results of research by members of the University, faculty and students. Articles were contributed by Homer B. Latimer, professor of anatomy; C. Wolfson, instructor of anatomy; L. L. Boughton, associate professor of pharmacy; O. O. Stoland, professor of physiology; E. H. Taylor, professor of zoology; Kathleen C. Doering, associate professor of entomology; Henry P. Wager; Claude W. Hibbard; Eugene E. Kenaga; and Allen Graffham.

Bob Johnson, fully recovered from his sprained ankle, has been showing good form at the quarterback slot and may replace Buescher if the latter tires early. The leading score for the Jay- hawkers this year has not been able to crash the starting line-up yet. He is Jack Ballard, six-foot-six-inch forward. He has scored 19 points in two games and his height is extremely valuable in close to the basket on tip-ins and rebounds. Another forward who will see plenty of action is Vance Hall, junior hot-shot from Downs. Hall is one of the best shots on the team but is handicapped by a lack of height. JAYHAWKS SEEK--- Hill Sportsters ★★★ Take to Ice From here on out, Hill living is on ice. During Christmas vacation a part of the intramural field was flooded for skating and a few of the hangers-on around Mt. Oread tried it out. Now a second flooding has provided a second coating of ice, and this afternoon a crowd of potential Sonja Heines and hookey stars were demonstrating what a Jayhawk can do out in the cold world. Floodlights and logs for bonfires will add to the comfort of the skaters. The rink is being sponsored by the department of physical education to encourage winter recreation. If you care to ski, you are also in luck. A run will be fixed on the north slope of the Hill. Potter lake has been carrying an extra load the past few days. About a hundred students have been spending leisure hours alternating between warming at the bonfire and skating on the traditional pond. The come-on-ice-I'mready crowd is prepared for the new rink. Volleyball Season in Full Swing So get out the skates or the barrel stave skis. Tomorrow is another day on ice. Men's intramural volleyball first games will be played this afternoon at 5:10 when Newman and Phi Game meet in a Division I battle while Division II teams Delta Chi and Sig Ep tangle on the other court. Seventeen organizations have entered teams in the current series, and the delegations have been placed in two groups. Division I includes the Faculty. Phi Delt, Newman, Phi Gam, Alpha Chi Sigma, Sigma Chi, Delta Upsilon, and Pfuigerville. Second division teams are Delta Chi, Sigma Phi Epsilon, Sigma Nu, Phi Psi, Triangle, S.A.E., Kappa Sig, Delta Tau Delta, and Beta. In tomorrow's only volleyball game, the Faculty team will meet Phi Delt at 4:30. MEOW IT'S THE "CAT'S MEOW" Ober's Sale on FINGER TIP COATS and LEATHER JACKETS Big Reductions for College Men Ober's Track Men Work Out With Added Incentive Track practice for both varsity and freshmen begins this week in preparation for the squad's indoor season which opens here against Kansas State Feb. 14, Coach W. H. "Bill" Hargiss announced today. While most of the varsity men and some fresh have been taking light work-outs before Christmas, this marks Hargiss' first actual call for the freshman track candidates to report. Coach Hargiss said that he was particularly interested in having a large freshman squad this year as there is a possibility that, in view of the war and draft situation, the Big Six faculty representatives may revoke the conference freshman ruling so that yearlings of the member schools could enter active competition in the conference track meets this year. After a week of limbering-up and conditioning exercises on the University's indoor track under the east wing of the stadium, Coach Hargiss plans to start putting his track men through their individual events. Romance Language Teachers Attend Two Conventions Four members of the teaching staff of the department of romance languages, Dr. W. H. Shoemaker, Dr. L. L. Barrett, Miss May Gardner, and Robert E. Pyle, returned Sunday after attending sessions of the American Association of Teachers of Spanish in St. Louis, and the annual convention of the Modern Language Association of America in Indianapolis. Doctor Shoemaker served as chairman of the nominating committee at St. Louis and was reappointed to the same post for another year.

Mitchell The death of Dr. U. G. Mitchell of the department of mathematics brings to a close the career of a brilliant teacher and a leader in various activities of the University. Those who have studied under Dr. Mitchell have regarded him highly as a capable teacher and a warm, friendly personality. He devoted considerable time outside the classroom giving personal assistance to his students. Owing to a deep interest in the history of mathematics, Dr. Mitchell organized one of the first history of mathematics courses offered in the country, and made a hobby of collecting rare old original treatises on mathematical history. He was a member of several national committees on the teaching of mathematics, and was much sought after as a speaker before teaching groups. In addition to the valuable services rendered in his own department, Dr. Mitchell was an important member of faculty committees and was considered eminently impartial and progressive in this work by his colleagues. During the first World War he was manager of the War Work campaign on the Hill. He was also the original chairman of the 75th Anniversary committee. A member of the Congregational church, Dr. Mitchell was moderator for the state of Kansas. Dr. Mitchell received his A.B. degree from the University in 1906. He was the only member of his senior class to be elected to both Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Xi, honorary science fraternity. Dr. Mitchell was on the staff of the department of mathematics from 1906 to 1908. He received his master's degree at Princeton in 1910, and returned to continue his teaching work here, becoming head of the department in 1931. Those who knew Dr. Mitchell will easily understand the loss to the University caused by his passing. Those who did not know him may find inspiration in his record as a respected and well-loved man. America Moves Ahead The entry of the United States into World War II in December will make conditions of 1941 and 1942 seem vastly different. The year just passed revealed peak production of civilian goods in many industries. In 1942, many of these same industries will produce few, if any civilian goods, but will concentrate on products necessary for war. Already 1942 has seen complete restrictions placed upon one of America's leading civilian commodities new automobiles. This month has also brought rationing of tires and tubes for cars already in use. America will attain production of a volume of physical goods never before dreamed of in the months to come. How big this output will be, no one knows, but it will be huge. The blueprints of the war effort have been subject to such constant revision upward that not even industrial leaders know what enormous totals 1942 will bring. The United States is at present devoting an estimated 20 per cent of its national effort to war. Compared to England, with 50 per cent, and to Germany, with 70 per cent, America's war effort is small. When this country does hit its stride, therefore, by the end of this year, it will amaze the world by the ability to turn out implements of war. Increased national wealth will be noted in 1942, but personal profits are likely to be less. Taxes will see to that. Bonds and defense funds will be taken, perhaps; for the first time, from the pay envelopes of workers. People will get along without many things—not because they do not have the money, altogether, but because the manufacturers may not be making certain commodities, or because federal control has set those commodities aside for war needs. Colleges and universities will feel the effects of war perhaps more than any other single phase of American life. Many students will not return, and those who would normally expect to enroll after high school graduation will now go to some armed duty, or into defense industry. Curricula will be changed, shortened; schools will go on a 12-months basis in some cases; there will be a marked difference in student attitude, and in the course content. Employment of men and women will shift. Already the want ads list openings in other lines of work for men and women who have found their own lines closed or limited by rationing or production shifts. Many will find it necessary to close their small businesses, and seek employment elsewhere. The year 1942 is likely to set up changes in the life of the common citizen that may make 1941 look like paradise. Still, every American citizen must conceal his personal feelings and join with the others in an all-out effort for victory over the Axis. Then there will be time to contemplate the effect these changes have had upon him.

When the big press in the basement of the Journalism building begins to roll late on the afternoon of Thursday, Jam. 15 the University Daily Kansan will have completed 30 years of publication as the University of Kansas' daily student newspaper, for on Jan. 16, 1912, the Kansan first became a daily paper published five days a week including a Sunday edition. Through the first World War, the boom of the twenties and the depression of the thirties, and through the first month of a second and larger war, the Kansan has recorded daily happenings at the University for the $ ^{\circ}$ ings at the University for the thousands of students who have been here during those 30 years. Published since 1912, as a daily student paper, the Kansan was published for nine years previously as a biweekly and then a tri-weekly. First student paper to be called the University Kansan was a short-lived weekly paper in 1889-90. However, history of journalism at the University goes back nearly 68 years to April 1, 1874, when the Observer of Nature, first student paper in the history of the University, began publication. While essentially a publication of the Natural History society, the Observer also contained general University news. Daily Kansan Will Have a Birthday Soon Rivals Combine The Observer was followed in 1875 by the Kansas Collegiate which lasted for four years and was then consolidated with a rival paper called the Kansas Review. The Review, a monthly news magazine containing articles by faculty members as well as students, had the longest life of any student publication up to its time lasting until the spring of 1896. Other strong student papers of the early era in University journalism were the University Courier (1882-95) and the Kansas University Weekly, (1895-1904). In all, fifteen appeared in the period between 1874 and 1904. Next paper to be called the University Kansan after the first Kansan in 1890 was the Semi-Weekly Kansan which began publication on September 1904, the first University paper to appear more than once a week. Later the name was changed to the Kansan and continued under this title when the bi-weekly became a tri-weekly it May, 1908, until September, 1910 when the name was again changed to the University Kansan.

Although the department was not established until 1909, a course in journalism was first taught as early as 1891 by Prof. E.M.Hopkins of the department of English and then discontinued until the fall of 1903 when it was again taught by Professor Hopkins. These early journalism courses were supplemented by lectures given by Kansas editors and newspapermen. Flint A Guiding Light In 1906 the Kansan was first printed on the campus, utilizing the press of the Graduate Magazine in the basement of Fraser hall and in 1911, the department of journalism and the Kansan were moved to the Medical building which has since come to be known since 1913 as the Journalism building or as it is referred to by the students, the "Shack." No history of the University Daily Kansan or of the department of journalism would be complete without mention of Prof. L. N. "Daddy" Flint who has been associated with University journalism since 1903 when he first came to the University as lecturer in journalism. Professor Flint became a member of the first faculty of the department of journalism when it was established in 1909 and became head of the department in 1916. After serving as chairman of the department for 25 years, Professor Flint retired as chairman last spring though remaining on the faculty to instruct young University journalists in the principles of better journalism. Also mentioned in a history of the Daily Kansan and the department of journalism should be the editors of the Kansan. Some of the editors get the Kansan into trouble, some editors get themselves into trouble, but some editors work to make the University a better place to go to school. To these editors and to the Daily Kansan the student body is indebted for many of the improvements on the Hill. Mattern Display at N.Y.

Upon her arrival in Sun Valley the day before Christmas, Miss Bartlett immediately rented skiis in preparation for the sport at which she spent part oy every day. Trudging up oh-so-gentle slopes, having ski instructors with the "cutest" accents yell what to do as trees loomed up ahead, and freezing one's best features on the ski lifts—was all part of the fun of skiing at Sun Valley. Miss Bartlett's room was in the Lodge and overlooked two skating rinks, which were decorated for Christmas with ice fireplaces, and ice wood with red lights for the fire. Christmas eve everyone met in the village square to watch 50 skiers with torches come down the mountain, Miss Bartlett said. Then they sang carols and went to the inn for hot spiced wine. Miss Barlett spent some time in the Ram, rustic hangout for college students. Everyone becomes quickly acquainted at Sun Valley, and she found other collegians especially friendly. The only place to dance in the village was in the Duchin room in the Lodge, named for Eddie Duchin, the first bandleader to bring his band there. The room was designed by Duchin's wife in modernistic style. At the bowling alleys Miss Bartlett saw Norma Shearer, who was "lovely," and on a sleigh party Veronica Lake and her husband accompanied the gang. Miss Lake, said Miss Bartlett, was "not glamorous, but sweet-looking—not like she is in movies." Sonja Henie's skating double for "Sun Valley Serenade" a 17-year-old boy was also there. "Sun Valley is the most beautiful place I've ever seen," Miss Bartlett said. "I certainly want to go back as soon as possible." Norma Tibbets, Former Student, Killed In Auto Crash Norma Tibbets, a student at the University last year, and her mother, Mrs. R. J. Tibbets of Kansas City, Mo., were killed in an automobile accident Dec. 24 near Iuka, Miss. The two women were driving to Jacksonville, Fla., to visit Paul Thayer, KU. graduate, in naval air training there. Their auto collided with a truck. Miss Tibbets and Thayer planned to be married in February when he completes his training. While attending the University for two years, Miss Tibbets was a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority. She is survived by a sister Marjorie Tibbets, college freshman, and her father, R. J. Tibbets of Kansas City. Kansan Positions Open The business staff of the Kansan announced today that applications for the position of advertising manager would be taken Wednesday afternoon between two and four o'clock in the journalism building. This salaried position was formerly held by Jason Yordy. Red Cross Student Drive Under Way The student Red Cross drive is under way with the selection of 11 faculty members by the student committee to solicit organized houses. The faculty members include Profs. E. C. Buehler, Lawrence Woodruff, George Beal, Guy Keeler, Allan Crafton, Robert Calderwood, W. W. Davis, H. B. Chubb, Robert McNair Davis, V. F. Smith, and K. W. Davidson. Prof. Buehler, faculty adviser to the committee, states that firemen and county employees have contributed a day's wages to the Douglas county drive, and asks students to give the equivalent of one hour's wages, about 35 or 40 cents. Faculty and University employees have already donated $600 toward the goal of $800. The student goal is $500.

THURSDAY "If there is any doubt in anyone's mind that the United States is at war, just spend five days in southern California." That is what Ketchum says after a Christmas vacation spent surveying defense industries at work, experiencing black-outs and air alarms, and breathing the balmy air just to make sure it was California.

He spent New Year's Eve at Seventh and Broadway, known as "the busiest corner in the world." Palm-lined drives, sandy beaches, movie studios, and sunshine were so unusual and fascinating that Ketchum forgot to mourn for the Rose Bowl Game being played in another part of the country. California is being turned from a tourists' playground into a land geared for defense and populated by a war-conscious people. Ketchum said the Los Angeles municipal airport has been converted into a strictly army air station with no commercial airplanes allowed within in a ten mile radius.

Well- ; and coast UNIVERSITY Daily Kansan the same there the Re- led to LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7; 1942 39th YEAR Final week will be conducted as originally set up in the examination schedule released by the Chancellor's office. There will be no change of dates, nor shortening of the week. No Change in Exam Schedule Red Cross Calls For Dollars No Certain Deferment For Students 'Subject To Call,' Cameron No promising junior or senior graduating in a field of great need will be called to duty. NUMBER 66 "There is no occupational deferment from service in the Army," said Bruce Cameron, head of the local draft board, yesterday. In deciding such cases the board must weigh two considerations. First it must ask, "Will this student's deferment materially aid the nation's war effort." And it must also remember the government's stipulation that "patriotic common sense will govern" the board's deliberations. All drafted students — doctors, chemists, or engineers, are subject to this nation-wide order, Cameron said. Each application for deferment is considered upon individual merits, and the demand for workers in the field of his major. The No.4 parking lot has been closed to student and faculty automobiles by a recent ruling of the University traffic rules committee, according to an announcement from the Chancellor's office. "At present, regulations change almost weekly, but the rule remains: No set occupational deferment. Doctor, chemist, or engineer, each must present his case—and accept the verdict." University authorities emphasized that students effected by the new ruling are not to leave their cars parked at the curbs of principal campus roads. The lot effected is located behind Marvin hall. Students holding parking permits for this lot will be allowed to leave their automobiles at the new lot on the road leading to the rock crusher behind Snow hall. There is no certain deferment for any able-bodied student, but all students who are deferred, must enter plants or laboratories engaged in national defense work. Close No.4 Parking Lot The ruling was made because of building activity near the old parking space. Second Co-op For Women Opens Soon The University is to have another women's co-op dormitory in the near future, Genevieve Harman, president of the Kaw Koettes, announced today. The location of the house has not been definitely decided upon, but it will be within close walking distance of the Hill. Anyone wishing additional details may see Genevieve Harman. Application blanks may be secured from Miss Marie Miller, assistant adviser of women. This new co-op will accommodate 20 girls and will have either a housemother or houseparents. The girls will manage and furnish the house themselves. Work in the dormitory will be apportioned in the same manner as at other co-ops. Navy Calls for University Men Hill Enlistments High More students from the University of Kansas have taken advantage of the new V-7 naval reserve program than from any other school in Kansas. This new ruling of the United States navy permits junior and senior students enrolled in work toward bachelor of arts, science, law, and business administration to complete their study if they enlist in the service now for the duration of the war. Letters were sent this week calling the upperclassmen's attention to this opportunity for continuing their school work. Letters were sent this week from the Chancellor's office calling the upperclassmen's $ \textcircled{1} $ ___ The students will enlist in the reserve training which leads to the rank of midshipman. They are not called into active service until after they receive their degrees, except for short training periods during the summer months. If the student should fail to receive his degree he will enter the service as an ordinary seaman. However, if he receives the degree he will enter the officer training school for a 4-months course. Each student is required to be of junior or senior classification in school, must be 19 years of age or more, must have parents consent if a minor, and must upon graduation have taken at least two semesters of mathematics, including a course in trigonometry. Those enlisting must first pass a physical examination before being accepted. Schedule Proofs May Be Examined All students who will be back on the Hill next semester and who wish to plan their course for that time may examine the galley proofs of the new class schedule in the college office, Dean Paul B. Lawson announced this morning. 'Investigate Tucker and Layton' ★★★ ★★★ Phog Calls For Big Six Probe THE BOSS Allen is writing Dr. H. H. King, chairman of the Big Six faculty committee, and Mike Ahearn, Kansas State athletic director, to request for an immediate meeting of the committee to clarify the eligibility of these two Sooner athletes. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, Kansas' staunch basketball mentor made known his intentions this morning to call for a meeting of the Big Six faculty fathers to consider the eligibility of Gerald Tucker and Lester Layton, both University of Oklahoma athletes. In reply to Allen's accusations yesterday of Oklahoma's subsidization of its athletes, Jap Haskell, Oklahoma athletic director, admitted the Sooner school had sent many of its football players to the professional ranks and added that he believed "in dealing the cards above the table." 'Phog' insists that since Haskell has dealt the cards, he will force the Oklahoma to "show his hand by laying his cards on the table." COACH JAP HASKELL .swings back at Phog Allen wants to know why Lester Layton, who he says is living at the home of Bruce Drake, Sooner basketball coach, should be allowed to play amateur baseball in the Big Six while he is, Allen charges, in the pay of the Boston Red Sox. Allen contends that Tucker, around whom the eligibility controversy has revolved all this week, should not be allowed to play the last semester of his senior year, since he has already played in five games this semester although later declared ineligible by the Big Six. When the Oklahoma basketball team made a road trip East before the conference began, Tucker played without having the Big Six committee's passing on his eligibility. Now the faculty fathers have decided Tucker, under the "migrant athlete" ruling shall be allowed five semesters of varsity competition at Oklahoma. In view of this ruling, and in view of the fact that Tucker has played in five games this semester, although they were non-conference games, Allen believes this semester should be included in the five of Tuckers eligibility, since non-conference contests count as competition. Student Drive To Raise Money For Emergency Independents are especially urged by the student committee to make use of this medium of giving, for students living in organized houses are contributing through the house. Students will have an opportunity to contribute toward their Red Cross goal of $500 tomorrow and Friday when Jay Janes circulate over the campus with Red Cross containers. The faculty drive began the week before Christmas. "University students who are fortunate enough to be allowed to continue their education and are Prof. E. C. Buehler, faculty adviser to the committee, states that this is the first drive of its kind on the campus in 23 years, and that the emergency war drive goal of Douglas county for the first World War was $100,000. "If the faculty members who haven't yet contributed will cooperate in some manner as those who have contributed have done, the drive will go over the top in a hurry," Prof. E. C. Buchler, chairman of the drive, said today. Faculty contributions amounting to $625 have been received by the Red Cross faculty committee, leaving $175 yet to go to reach the $800 goal. not serving in the active forces should be willing to do their part toward helping their country," said Fred Robertson, chairman of the student drive. "Every student can afford to give the cost of a couple of packages of cigarettes or a movie to this cause," Robertson added. The emergency nature of the present drive causes the goal to be set higher than that of the annual Red Cross drive, but it still does not approach the first World War goal, Buehler said. Chubb, Randle Crash At Intersection A collision involving two automobiles, one driven by Kenneth Randle, sophomore engineer, and the other by H. B. Chubb, professor of history, occurring at the intersection of Fourteenth and Kentucky during the noon hour today resulted in slight damage only. The Randle car received a damaged front wheel and brake rod. The Chubb automobile received only scratches. The two drivers were the only occupants of the cars.

Landon, G.O.P. Presidential candidate in 1936, asserted last night that Americans "slowly" are coming to realize the extent of the war effort required of them although they still are too "cooky." He deplored what he called The country's lack of appreciation of the fact that tremendous effort must be put forth and many sacrifices must be made. "The President's speech and, even more than that, the orders he is issuing and the priorities that are being placed against consumers goods are beginning to jar the people into a sense of what this war means," he said. "There still hasn't been a united effort on the part of business and labor to work harmoniously. We've got to realize that the Germans are working 80 hours a week and we've got to match their production." Americans, he said, have been "too cocky and too ready to rest on the riches of our natural resources." A Draped Dinner Dress "Now we are faced with something of a new experience. We've got to work harder and work longer and make personal sacrifices. We must realize that the world war was a Sunday school picnic compared with this one." A Carruth Hall held an election of officers last night. Dwayne Oglesby, college junior, was elected president, and Dick Mankin, engineering junior, was elected vice-president. A very simple but figure flattering gown with long sleeves and a square neckline. The dress is artfully draped across the front. Carruth Hall Elects Officers Sally Rand Ditches Fans for Wedding Veil Glendora, Calif.—(UP)—Sally Rand fanned away all the obstacles to her marriage to cowboy Turk Greenough, and bubbled with happiness after the ceremony, but she is going to spend her honeymoon in a thick coat of talcum powder at the Los Angeles Orpheum theater-alone except for a dim blue spotlight. While the bride entertains the customers for a week behind fans and bubbles, the groom will perform at a rodeo in Colorado Springs. Colo. "And then," reported Sally (who also looks beautiful in clothes), "we are going to heaven—" " "To our ranch," she said. "Heaven ranch at Red Bluff, Mont. It is a lovely, lovely place." Sally said she almost wished she'd been married there in the first place. There wouldn't have been so much excitement. As it was: She couldn't be married in Grace Episcopal Church, because the bishop said Greenough was a divorcee. Neither could the rector, the Rev. Henry S. Rubel, perform the ceremony. So the wedding took place next door, under auspices of the Rev. George W. Bunton, retired Methodist minister, who'd been functioning as a first aid instructor at a nearby C.C.C. camp. Canuteson Attends Health Meeting Sally arrived at her wedding nervous and 30 minutes late, but there was no doubt about the beauty of the 37-year-old bride, fully clothed. She wore a long-sleeved, high - necked, bustled, ground-sweeping frock of white wool, with pink rosebuds embroidered on it. Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson attended the annual meeting of the American Student Health Association in New York City December 30 and 31. Dr. Canuteson was reelected secretary-treasurer of the association. Speakers at the meeting emphasized the part of college health services in national defense. One of the guest speakers was Col. L. M. Rountree, medical director of the selective service.

The effect that this conflict will ultimately have on the University can't be clearly seen, but ideas on the matter can be gained by getting the opinions of a cross-section of the male population, those in whom the answer to the dilemma is indirectly vested. It is a situation in which there is little or no optimism. The men are confident that the struggle will be long and hard. No one could be found to disagree on this point. However some commented that they did believe that the war would be a tougher fight at the beginning than at the conclusion. Should Knock-out Early "If we get in there and deliver a series of knock-out blows in the beginning," one student said, "after about 18 months we should have only the task of cleaning up the situation." The question, "What about your future here on the Hill, will you be back next semester or next year" brought a series of definitely undecided answers. A few were positive they would return next semester, a few were positive they wouldn't, but a majority "didn't know." None could be found to state that if he did come back next semester, he would also enroll next fall. Most of the men did not think they would enlist outright in the service, but they voiced the opinion that if it seemed imminent that they would be drafted, then they would enlist in some branch more appealing to them than the infantry. Interferes With Studying "Darn right it does," was the answer to the query, "Does this situation interfere much with your regular studying habits?" "By the time I get through reading about it in the paper, listening to the late radio reports, worrying about how my chances are to finish school before being called, whether or not I should enlist now, with some other things thrown in, I find I can't put myself to concentrating on the books like I should," was the way a college junior put his situation. Taken as a whole, the Hill male populace has begun worrying about the war. Although there has been a sprinkling of enlistments already, most of the men are trying to get their bearings and to find out exactly where they stand in the matter. According to the average trend of opinion, there will probably be war enough for everyone without a rush taking place for the front row seats. "Lean back, worry, study as much as you can, and let nature take its course," is evidently the motto of most Jayhawk males. Crowd Hears Orcutt Recital A crowd braved the winter's first first cold snap to hear Ruth Orcutt in a piano recital in Frank Strong auditorium Monday night. Miss Orcutt began with the Bach-Graonger "Blithe Bells" and then went into Brahms' Variations on a Theme by Handel. The second group was the whole book of Chopin's twenty-four Preludes, while the third and last consisted of piquant Spanish and Brazilian items. First was Albeniz's "Castilla," followed with Solitudes of the Brazilian Forest by Villa-Loboz. Falla's "Ritual Fire Dance" closed the program. Marjorie Wiley, college senior will leave for Akron, Ohio, at the end of this semester to accept a position as laboratory technician in bacteriology. Senior Takes Research Job On Government Project Miss Wiley will be associated with Dr. N. A. Lockwood under the auspices of the National Research Council of the University of Pennsylvania school of medicine. The research is a government project which will be conducted in the Akron City hospital. THE LOVE CINEMAS Red Cross Asks $443,700 Fund From State Beautiful Loretta Young is starred at the Granada Theatre in the most glamorous role of her career, that of an extremely fascinating theatrical celebrity in Columbia's "The Men in Her Life." Conrad Veidt, Dean Jagger, John Shepperd, Otto Kruger and Eugenie Leontovich are featured members of the cast. This feature will run thru Saturday. St. Louis—(UP)—United States entry into the war brought multiplied responsibilities to Kansas' 113 Red Cross chapters, which this week began a two-fold task of raising their quotas in a Red Cross $50,000,000 American war relief fund campaign and preparing to meet increased responsibilities in their own communities in the war emergency. Kansas chapters' quota is $443,700, William M. Baster, Red Cross Midwestern manager, announced here. In an expansion program begun two years ago the Red Cross now has increased to more than 1,000 the number of its trained workers stationed at all important military posts and naval stations. The Red Cross is the official welfare agency of the army and navy. "Chapter disaster preparedness and relief committees, already organized for meeting natural disaster emergencies, will stand ready to give emergency relief in event of sabotage, fires, explosions, or other catastrophes for which civilian populations must be prepared as a war emergency measure. Chapters also will assist in plans for evacuation of civilians from bombed cities and towns." "Kansas chapters," Baxter said, "will cooperate with the Office of Civilian Defense in providing first aid training to members of defense units which the OCD is setting up. Women Aviators Meet to Prepare Defense Thursday The Women's National Aeronautical association will meet at 8 p.m. Thursday in the Pine Room of the Memorial Union building. Edward E. Brush, associate professor in aeronautical engineering, will speak on "What Women Aviators Can Do in Defense." Anyone interested is invited to the meeting. The association plans to help in the blackout planned for Lawrence next semester. The February issue of Esquire magazine contains a story by Coach "Phog" Allen, entitled "Rotate Around the Center Jump," a basketball story written not only for the basketball player and fan but for the general readers of that magazine. Concerned with the elimination of the center jump, doctors and cage coaches complain that the new whirlwind game runs up the blood pressure and death rate of our young basketeers. By this elimination the game has been speeded up as much as 30 per cent. Coach Allen contends that he opposed the striking of the center jump from the rule books and offers as his solution for a return to the sanity of the game by restoring this phase of the game and rotating every man on the team to jump center. "I vehemently protested the elimination of the center jump on the grounds that the 10 to 13-second pause of the official when putting the ball into play at center gave the players a temporary breathing spell. It also gave the spectators a mental breath." MSC Lack Quorum In Post-Vacation Meeting A new book, "The Administrator's Wife," has been presented to Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni Association, for the Alumni library. The authors are G. W. Marshall, superintendent of schools in Ottawa, Clara W. Marshall, and W. W. Carpenter, professor of education at the University of Missouri. The general theme of the book is the effect a wife can have upon the success of a school administrator. The book also considers problems of the administrator's wife. The authors are all graduates of the University. Enrollment figures at the University of Michigan show an increase of 150 women over last year, with 787 fewer men students. Give Fine Arts Recital Tomorrow The program is as follows: Three ensemble numbers will be featured in the weekly student recital given by students in the School of Fine Arts tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 in the auditorium of Frank Strong hall.

Deposits insured under provisions of the Federal Banking Act of 1985 PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7, 1942 --- Sportin' Around by Chuck Elliott "I'll carry it to the press" were the words of Coach Bruce Drake last night after his team had gone down to a 22-point defeat. Drake did not seem too disheartened about the game for the undoubtedly expected the result when he came. "What can you expect when a coach builds his team around one player and then finds out at three o'clock the afternoon before a game that he is ineligible to play." Drake continued. He still insisted that Tucker had been given a raw deal. IT'S NOT OVER YET When queried as to his next move, Drake replied that he didn't know for he hadn't heard as yet from his athletic board which met yesterday. He imagined that a letter would be sent to Kansas State asking permission for Tucker to play but he said this would be handled by Jap Haskell, Oklahoma athletic director. The sportily-dressed Oklahoma coach offered no alibis for the defeat but inwardly he was wishing that Tucker could have played to show the fans that Oklahoma does have a real ball club. It is the opinion of this column that all of the Oklahoma authorities were fully cognizant of the facts before the situation ever arose. They thought, undoubtedly, that with a little luck they could pass over the situation and no one would ever be the wiser. "If the Big Six conference faculty group does not change its action against Tucker, we will carry it to the press and let the public decide. The affair is too one-sided at the present and I want everyone to know the facts, all of them and the truth of them." Drake said. "The boy has been done an injustice and I'd like to see it rectified. That's all I have to say now," Drake concluded, indicating that he plans to carry the case as far as he possibly can to make Tucker eligible. At that time Kraft was told to notify the rest of the Big Six members so that action could be taken immediately. This was not done however. Oklahoma's idea at that time was to let the affair ride with the hopes of delaying action. Virtual proof of this theory was forthcoming from Coach "Phog" Allen this morning when he said that Walter Kraft, Oklahoma representative to the Big Six athletic council, was notified two weeks ago yesterday of the oncoming situation by a phone call from Prof. W. W. Davis of the University history department. Then when the action did come to a point and an immediate sentence was passed, the Oklahoma school accuses the rest of the conference of being unfair. TAKE IT TO THE CLOSET, DRAKE It merely seems to be a case of a school trying to get away with a little underhanded work and then when caught, is quick to holler. The opinion of coaches and faculty members alike is that Oklahoma is very fortunate indeed in being able to play Tucker at all. Under the interpretation handed down Monday by the conference athletic council, Tucker is not guilty of the "migrant athlete" rule. And yet this rule was placed into the conference by-laws to prevent just such a thing as the transferring of an athlete from one university to another. The case will continue to be aired for some time probably but instead of carrying it "to the press," Drake had better take it to the closet and tuck it down deep among the many strange cases involving Oklahoma athletes. DRAKE LOVES TO TALK Notes of last night's game: For the first time in the history of Hoch auditorium, the Kansas cagers sat on the west side of the scoring table. This was because the Big Six schools had complained that it bothered them to have to sit next to the band. . . . Perhaps Coach Drake didn't realize that his players would need a little peeping up with a third of the game yet to play. . . Drake talked to his players on the court constantly. . . His first chant was to "move it, move it" . . . Oklahoma was outfighting us for the rebounds and wild passes the first half. . . They were also getting more shots. . . More Drake quotes: "Set it up, set it up" . . . "Don't stop driving" . . . "Run it right, run it right" . . . At one stage of the game, Mitch Simon, only senior on the squad, asked Drake if they should run them straight into the basket, down the middle. . . Drake said that's what he wanted so Simon called the play. . . Reich was the Sooner to attempt the deed and he was blocked completely by Solly and Evans. . . The next time Drake started yelling, Simon wiggled his fingers at him to try and make him stop. . . Evidently Mitch didn't think Drake could call the plays very good. . . The Oklahoma coach would be a poor one to sit on the bench alone. . . During the entire game he had his arm draped tightly around the neck of whatever player happened to be at his side. DRAKE RAZZED CONSTANTLY Drake wanted his players to run a single post but it couldn't work against the tight guarding of the Jayhawks. . . . Drake was razzed unmercifully throughout the game but his expression never changed once. . . . Once when Drake objected to a decision Miller walked to the side of the court and explained the referee's interpretation. . . . That one play was perhaps the only flaw in the entire game from the Referee's Volz and O'Sullivan side. . . The Sooner basket was okayed by Volz and O'Sullivan ruled steps and steps it was . . . Roberts was by far the best player Oklahoma had . . . He had a good trick of dribbling around his guard down the right side of the court and either taking a one-handed corner shot or driving on into the basket . . . . Buescher, who guarded him, was unable to keep up with Roberts always because of an infection in his leg. . . . Roberts had no concerted help from his teammates. . . . Otherwise the score would have been much closer. . . . When Rousey left the game he sighed, "That's all of me." Jayhawks Run Wild Black Leads 54-32 Score AgainstO.U. A six-foot-four-inch "Black-out" hit a weakened and "Tuckered-out" band of Oklahoma Sooners last night and nearly forced them to scuttle their wagon in order to escape from a rampaging gang of Kansas Jayhawkers who bombarded the basket from every angle to rack up a 54 to 32 conquest before 3,298 fans in Hoch auditorium to open the Big Six conference season. Jones-Buescher Tangle The second half was an entirely different story as the Kansans came back with more pep than ever and a plentiful supply of high caliber reserves while the Sooners were seriously in need of a few players such as the missing Gerald Tucker. Black continued his scoring streak by taking the ball away from Heap in a scramble under the basket and starting a concerted Jayhawk offensive. With four-and-one-half minutes gone in the period, an amusing sidelight occurred as Don Jones fouled Buescher and then Buescher fouled Jones a moment later. While walking away from the free-throw lane, Jones ran his hand through Bisch's crew haircut in an attempt to muss it up. Buescher returned the compliment while the referees walked unconcernedly ahead of the players. A minute later Jones ran interference for Reich as the latter intercepted a pass to dribble down the court for a set-up to make the score 34 to 25 for K.U. The game started to get rough at this point and Jones went out on fouls.

Buescher left the game with three minutes to go and received a big hand as did Evans and Miller in the next minute. But the big ovation was reserved for Black who was taken out with 45 seconds remaining. He had scored his 25 points with three minutes to play and at that point had a chance to break the school's scoring record of 27 points which Howard Engleman set against Oklahoma on the same floor in 1939. The conference record of 30 points was set by Oklahoma's Jimmy McNatt against Nebraska in 1940. Miller Returns To Form Charlie Black, tall, lanky, black-haired sophomore, was the long-range bomber who caused the Sooners to blink their lights and run for the storm cellar. He sent ten goals swishing through the hoop and added five charity shots to bring his total to 25 points for the evening. Black's favorite shot of the evening was a high, one-handed arch shot which started from out past the free throw lane after he had whirled from a modified post position to leap into the air and face the basket before firing. Six of his baskets were by this method. Black was not the only offensive threat for the Jayhawkers as John Buescher and Ralph Miller formed a convoy to aid in sinking the rough and ready band of Sooners. Bisch scored four buckets and two free throws although playing just a little over half of the game. Cappy finally showed signs of returning to his high-scoring days of old as he played his best ball of the season to gather in five field goals on a free throw. Oklahoma's cause was not as drab as the score might indicate. Especially was this so in the first half when the Sooners were trailing only by six points at intermission. A. D. "Ug" Roberts, queer-acting, slink-shouldered forward, was the main cog in the Red and White attack but he couldn't stem the onslaught by himself. Roberts Leads Sooners Roberts Leads Sooners Although Roberts played most of the game on the floor he managed to garner 12 points. His four field goals were all set shots from near the side of the court, midway back. Paul Heap (continued to page five) Oklahoma Fans Urge Withdrawal From Conference Norman, Okla., Jan. 7. — (UP)—Oklahoma official and student indignation over the Gerald Tucker eligibility case was soothed none today by the victory of Kansas 54 to 32, at Lawrence last night. Brandt added in his statement that "there will be no drastic action taken." It was revealed that fans have "urged" the university to withdraw from the Big Six conference in protest to the Tucker ruling. Tucker Came of Own Will However, he said, "Tucker came here on his own volition and by no stretch of his imagination can he be called a migrant athlete." Pres. Joseph A. Brandt announced that "we have been urged to withdraw from the conference by people over the state" as a result of the Big Six decision to hold Tucker ineligible during the first semester. Tucker, 19-year-old sophomore from Winfield, Kan., was declared ineligible because he had not spent two full semesters in school here since his transfer from Kansas State college in November, 1940. "No Drastic Action" JANUARY SALE ON Students here believed the difference in the Kansas-Oklahoma basketball game last night was the absence of Tucker. He has averaged 15.4 per game this season and sparkplugged the Oklahoma offense. ★ LOUNGING ROBES LOUNGING KOBES Gabardines —Rayon Jerseys —Twills —Flannels —Silks and Rayons $5.00 values . . . $4.00 $6.95 values . . . $5.55 $7.50 values . . . $6.00 PAJAMAS $3.50 values ... $2.80 $4.00 values ... $3.20 $4.50 ... $3.60 $4.50 values ... $3.60 $5.00 values ... $4.00 SPECIAL SALE ON--- Wool Jackets Corduroy Coats Zelon Lined Jackets Finger Tip Coats 20% DISCOUNT We Sell Defense Stamps CARL'S GOOD CLOTHES JA d al e WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7, 1942 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE FIVE Phi Psi's Cop Victory Over ATO's 27 to 25 TONIGHT'S SCHEDULE 6:00 Kappa Sig "B" vs. T.K.E "B"; Sig Alph "B" vs. Delta Tau "B." 9:00 Newman II vs. Hell Hounds; Pflugerville vs. Sigma Chi 10:00 Phi Psi "B" vs. D.U.

The lone Phi Psi charity toss was put in by tall John Hallberg late in the first half. Scoring was neck and neck all the way in this even contest, with A.T.O. Dick Webb leading the individual scoring with a total of 13 points. The Newman I delegation showed power in a 41 to 16 defeat of a D.U. five. Newman led 28 to 8 at the half, then continued scoring in the last two periods to chalk up a 25-point margin. Junius Penny played his usual good game at guard, and in addition led Newman scoring with 11 points. "Baby" Newcomer, Phi Delt coach and forward flash, led his team with 17 points in a 54 to 15 victory over Sigma Nu. Phi Delt's opened up a scoring barrage early in the game, and led at the half 26 to 9. Bill Walker, freshman guard, was instrumental in keeping the ball out of Sigma Nu hands, and in addition chalked up 12 tallies for his team. In the only "B" team game of the day, A.T.O. "B" easily overran Sigma Nu "B" 30 to 13. The contest was a slow one, and was marred by numerous fools; the A.T.O. delegation was reduced to three men because of losses via the foul route. The basketball game last night between the Alpha Chis and the Chi Omegas was quite onesided. The Chi O's won 19-3. Dorothy Brand played a good game for the Alpha Chi team but the Chi Omega's led 13-1 at the half and continued piling up their score until the end of the game. Donna Burkhead and Ann Hoffman were outstanding players for the Chi Omega's. The ETC forfeited their game to the TNT. Monday afternoon Corbin Hall defeated Alpha Delta Pi 3-0 in table tennis. JAYHAWKERS RUN---decided to discontinue the conference sports of baseball, tennis, golf and swimming. Inter-school contests will be substituted for the discontinued sports. (continued from page four) and Rich Reich were the next best scorers the Sooners offered, each tallying five points. Defensive standouts of the game were the Jayhawker guards, Marvin Sollenberger and Ray Evans. Although neither scored a field goal offensively, they saved many a point for the Kansans by their blocking of shots and passes and their making the "down-center" portion of the court impregnable. First Half Proves Close Miller and Black wasted no time in getting their sights trained on the Oklahoma basket as they split the first eight Kansas points which were scored by the nine-minute mark. In that same time the Sooners were held to one field goal. Midway in the first half the Sooners had added five free throws to their lone basket but Black and Buescher were not idle and had extended the lead to 12 to 7. Buescher kept the Kansans comfortably ahead by sinking three baskets in the next seven minutes with Black coming in for two more of his "swing an' swish" shots. Roberts had his hot streak during this period to sing three goals in five minutes and not let the Sooners lose sight of the high-flying Jayhawks who led 26 to 20 at half-time. Reds Advance; Japs Near Singapore By UNITED PRESS The Red army offensive surged forward at both ends of the eastern front today but in the Far East the Japanese hammered a path ever closer to Singapore. In Malaya, Japanese armored units suffered heavy losses in crashing attacks on the British defense line but Singapore dispatches acknowledged that the enemy had forced further imperial withdrawals in the area some 170 to 200 miles north of the naval base. The British apparently were putting up a terrific fight for the key communications and industrial town of Kuala Lampur but dispatches indicated that the strongest defense line eventually would be formed somewhere south of that point. In the Philippines, the Tokyo broadcast claimed that "mopping up" operations were in progress against the American defenses in Bataan peninsula but there still was no definite indication that the enemy had made important progress against the fighting men of Gen. Douglas MacArthur. MacArthur's forces apparently held most or all of Bataan province and part of Zambales, although the Tokyo radio claimed that the Japanese had penetrated northern Bataan. Washington expected an early "all out" enemy assault on the American positions, which have been under heavy Japanese aerial bombardment from Subic bay in Zambales to the island of Corregidor at the entrance to Manila bay Nebraska Stalls To Gain Victory Over K-Aggies A last half drive by Kansas State carried the Wildcats near a victory over the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the closing minutes at Lincoln last night but the Huskers stalled to win the season's Big Six opener for them, 44 to 38. After the Wildcats opened the scoring the Huskers returned to tie the count and later took a wide lead which the K-State cagers never overcame. Sid Held, guard, was high scorer of the game with 13 points and led the Husker attack throughout the game. The Wildcats were paced by Forward Bruce Holman who scored eight points.

This is the advice given by leading educators to university undergraduates who have considered leaving school to join the armed forces of our nation at war. In spite of this advice, many students have left school to enlist—some out of sincere patriotism, some for love of adventure, and in too many cases, because local draft boards refused to grant them deferment until the end of the semester or year, and enlistment was a happier choice than conscription. Certain government and military leaders, however, have recognized the importance to the future of the country of having trained leaders in civilian pursuits after the war. Along this line, a bill was sent to the military affairs committee of the Senate in early December authorizing the deferment of college students until the end of the academic year. Unfortunately, no favorable action has been taken on this measure. More recently, the navy department has made arrangements whereby students could finish their junior and senior years without being called in selective service, and would enlist for officer's training upon graduation. This enlistment was originally limited to 7,000 juniors and a like number of seniors throughout the nation, but a large response to the offer may cause an upward revision of this limit. This is a step in the right direction. Not only does it help insure trained officers for a war that will obviously last for some time, but it will enable students to finish their education, and should tend to discourage students from dropping out of school. Other branches of the service might do well to adopt similar programs. Meanwhile, to the students who have the opportunity, stay here and finish your education. If America has need for soldiers now, it will have no less need for thinkers and leaders in the future. It is not unpatriotic or cowardly to look to the future. A LOLLYPOP FOR OKLAHOMA Dr. F. C. Allen and Bruce Drake, Oklahoma basketball coach, engaged in a verbal duel in Hoch auditorium yesterday, the chief topic of which was the Gerald Tucker "migrant athlete" controversy. Both coaches varied from the subject at hand considerably in discussing personalities. Drake characterized the Big Six conference athletic council's decision in declaring Tucker ineligible for play for the remainder of the semester as "underhand." During the course of his talk he used such epithets as "un-American," "Pearl Harbor," "undemocratic," "unfair," "undermined." In his defense of the University of Oklahoma's part in the Tucker case, Drake did not once mention the crux of the controversy: that Tucker, who had attended Kansas State nine weeks in the fall of 1940, had not been in residence at Oklahoma two full semesters before beginning varsity competition on the basketball team. The conference laws specifically cover this phase of transferring athletes. Doctor Allen asserted that Oklahoma officials had no business playing Tucker at all (he competed with the Sooner varsity in an eastern trip) with the two-semester rule in force. Either this rule should be changed to accommodate the high-handed Oklahomaans, or perhaps, better yet, (for Oklahoma) all conference laws should be abolished. Our Oklahoma friends have been appealing to the "Americanism" and "democracy" of the citizens of this area in supporting their claims. Their choice epithets have boomeranged, for they were very "undemocratic" in playing Tucker in those eastern games when the "democratic" Big Six conference rules forbade such an action.-M.F. Hill students can settle back to a peaceful life disturbed only by news of Jap bombings, and to thankfulness that Kansas beat Oklahoma by a wide enough margin that any cry of, "Tucker would have turned the tide," will lack punch.

Doodling is dangerous, Donovan. Next semester will look good to everyone, but especially to Adelyn Cast. Her 3-hour course in "Social Conflicts" is proving too much for her. It seems that Professor Hilden Gibson's lectures are a trifle too moving. Adelyn comes home each Saturday morning completely broken up about the terrible state of society. Might we suggest a little lighter course for next semester. Something like 7:30, Early Morning Birds; 11:30 Medieval Badminton; 1:30, Clay Modeling; 5:30, Animals of the Past. A.

Kansas Ranks Fourth In Defense Training Only four states in the union have schools with larger enrollments in the war defense training courses than the University, Guy V. Keeler, director of the Engineering Science Management Defense Training program, said today. One reason for this condition, Keeler explained, is that the program in Kansas is being generally extended over the whole state while in New York, Pennsylvania, California, and Illinois — the states in which enrollment exceeds that of Kansas — the training programs are concentrated in industrial centers. This information was received this week from the United States office of education, sponsor of the national defense training program, which in Kansas $ ^{ \textcircled{1}} $ Throughout State In addition to Kansas City, Mo. Joplin, and St. Joseph, in Missouri, the university is supervising the defense courses in Winfield, Lawrence, Kansas City, Kan., Pittsburg, Parsons, Coffeyville, Wichita, Hutchinson, Eldorado, Topeka, Atchison, and Dodge City. The defense training program as administered by the extension division is one year old this week. F classes were set up in Wichita, Jan. 6, 1941, for four major aircraft concerns, Cessna, Calver, Stearman, and Beechcraft, with an enrollment of 200. Now more than 1,000 young men are taking the courses in Wichita. More Classes to Come The high percentage of young men completing the defense courses under University supervision, who have been upgraded in their positions, have secured better positions or have secured employment, has attracted the attention of officials of the U.S. office of education. In the year in which the program has been carried on, 6,045 young men have enrolled in the defense classes. Instructors for the most part have been selected from industry. In addition classes have been approved for organization with an additional potential enrollment of 2,360. Nash Urges Students To Take Reading Course Bert A. Nash, professor of education, is pushing plans for the next semester's offering of his reading laboratory and clinic course. For the past four years, the opportunity has been offered students to improve their reading habits at little expense of time or money to themselves. The student who applies himself properly can improve his reading speed and comprehension from 50 to 200 per cent. Professor Nash points out that the course is not necessarily for students who are poor readers but that some of the greatest improve- enrolled has been by students who were already above the average in ments shown thus far by those reading ability. At the beginning of the course, each enrollee is given an examination that completely diagnoses his reading ability. It points out his visual defects as well as his errors in comprehending what he reads. The only time investment in the course is in the laboratory work which usually takes about two hours a week.

Taxes are to be raised to increase Treasury revenue by 50 per cent in the 1943 fiscal year which begins this July 1. During this 12 months period, Mr. Roosevelt proposed in his budget message presented to spend approximately $59,000,000,000, to collect $27,000,000,000 in taxes and to raise the national debt to $11,400,000,000. Of the budgeted expenditures, $53,000,-900,000 would be for war in that one year. That includes $7,500,000,000 for Lend-Lease aid to the United Nations. Non-war expenditures were budgeted at more than $6,000,000,000, $437,000,000 less than this year. In addition to the $53,000,000,000 figure budgeted for war, government corporations will spend a non-budgeted $3,000,000,000 in the next fiscal year, bringing the over-all 1943 war cost to $56,000,000,000. His proposals for new revenue levies aggregated $9,000,000,000. He intimated that the government might temporarily resort to a general excise or sales tax. He told questioners that he still was opposed to general sales taxation and that "selective excise taxes" were as far in that direction as he would be prepared to go. Corporate and individual income taxes and gift levies on wealth apparently will be increased steeply. $27,000,000,000 aggregate tax revenue proposed for the 1943 fiscal year, approximately $3,500,000,000 represents social security tax income which is not computed as an item toward reduction of the estimated deficit. For the 1943 fiscal year, he estimated a Treasury deficit of $33,500,-000,000 which is only $6,500,000,000 less than the net cost to the U.S. of World War 1 computed before war veterans' payments and interest were added to the total. Of the There is nothing in any fiscal history to which the 1943 United States budget is comparable. Mr. Roosevelt reminded newspapermen that it was the biggest budget in the history of any nation at any time. He said it confronted the nation with the biggest production job in all history. NASH URGES---before the closing of the enrollment period. Prof. Nash also stated that he believed the enrollment would be kept to about 40 next semester because of the reduced personnel in his department.

The advisor's office hours will be posted on departmental bulletin boards. Freshmen and spohomores should see their advisors between Jan. 15-20, and prepare their class schedules. The advisors' hours for the underclassmen will be posted on the bulletin board across the hall from the College office. In an effort to economize the time of students and faculty members Chancellor Deane W. Malott has cut the time of enrollment to one day, Feb. 2, with classes starting Feb.3. Students who were classified as seniors during the fall semester may enroll early, anytime from Jan. 15-20, after making a special appointment with the College office. Although the lecture program is especially planned for the School Hygiene class of Prof. A. H. Turney, the meetings are open to the public. The Kansas program for the control of venereal diseases will be discussed by Dr. Robert H. Riedel, director of the Division of Venereal Diseases, Kansas State Board of Health, Jan. 13 and 15 at the University. The lecture will open at 11:30 in room 306, Fraser Hall, with the showing of two talking pictures concerning syphilis and gonorrhea. Venereal Diseases To Be Discussed By Doctor Riedel "Students who make use of this early advisory period have an opportunity to receive intimate and personal counsel concerning enrollment, and unless they desire to make changes, they can easily complete enrollment on the one day of enrollment." Dean of the College Paul Lawson said today. Lawson further said that the new plan would enable students to have longer and more intimate talks with their advisors, and that students would have more time to get their schedules in shape before the enrollment period. Enrollment Time Med School May Turn Out 3-year M.D.'s The School of Medicine is considering a plan which would place the medical school on a 12-month basis for each school year. The summer session would be expanded so that by attending three summer sessions students may complete their medical course leading to an M.D. degree in three years time. The shortening of the course to three years would provide the government with more physicians in less time. "Even without an increased enrollment, the lengthened term would turn out approximately 5,000 more physicians over a four year period," H. R. Wahl, dean of the School of Medicine pointed out. State Law Prohibits (continued to page two) The greatest problem confronting the change is a state statute which requires a person practicing medicine in the state to have completed four medical courses of not less than six months each, no two courses being in the same year. In view of the present national emergency, however, the Kansas medical board would have the power to approve any plan which would be beneficial and helpful to the national welfare, Dean Wahl stated Call for Women Need Stenos A call for women students with stenographic training was issued this morning by the Women's Employment Bureau.

If the present output of doctors from the medical schools is to continue some plan must be worked out whereby the students may be granted deferments. STAYS ON 50% LONGER THAN LIPSTICK YOU'RE USING!

ONLY $1.00 Weaver THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1942 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS OWT 9 PAGE THREE Congress May Vote Federal Sales Tax Washington—(UP)—Congress appeared today to be in a mood to give careful consideration to a general sales tax as a means of increasing the Federal government's revenue this year by $9,000,000,000. One congressional leader believed that such an increase—bringing total tax collections to $27,000,000,000 —was an impossibility without a sales tax. Chairman Robert L. Doughton, D., N.C., of the House ways and means committee and other committee members have shown increasing interest in sales tax proposals. If a sales tax is proposed and defeated, that doesn't mean the bill of the average taxpayer won't be increased in 1942. It definitely will be increased, but the method to be used in boosting the revenue remains to be determined by Congress—and most congressmen today were as confused by the colossal figures of the new budget as the man in the street. One thing is certain. This year's income tax on 1941 income, the largest ever, which is due March 15, will not be increased further. President Roosevelt, a consistent opponent of sales tax legislation in the past, said in his budget message to congress yesterday: "All through the years of the depression I opposed general excise and sales taxes and I am as convinced as ever that they have no permanent place in the federal tax system. In the face of the present financial and economic situation, however, we may later be compelled to reconsider the temporary necessity of such measures." Congressmen noted that Mr. Roosevelt said "later," but they believed he might approve a sales tax program as a "temporary necessity."

SOUTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY ★ ★ PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1942 Sportin' Around by Chuck Elliott The little hair-mussing deal which occurred in the Oklahoma-Kansas basketball game Tuesday night was certainly reminiscent of high school play. During the Christmas vacation this columnist saw a high school game between two bitter rivals. In that game the same stunt of the underdog team trying to get the other team roiled by having one or more of their players run their hands through the hair and over the face of an opposing star was tried. JONES LIKED TO PLAY ROUGH At that time it was distinctly humorous but decidedly high schoolish. In the game Tuesday night it appeared even more childish although it still had a humorous tinge. Don Jones, former Bartlesville star who played under C. C. Custer of Kansas, seemed to have his Scotch-Irish disposition aroused to the fullest. He was charged with two fouls the first half and seemingly came back after intermission with the idea of leaving the game quick. He was fouled by Buescher in the fourth minute and had no sooner missed his free throw than he fouled Bisch. The "Thin Man" also missed his shot. Kansas recovered the rebound but Reich intercepted a long pass back to the center of the court. He had a clear path to his goal with Sollenberger just a step behind him. But seemingly Jones didn't think it was clear enough for he came charging down the court to shoulder Solly out of the play by running perfect interference for Reich. Luckily he got by without a foul being called but in 30 seconds he wasn't as fortunate and the fourth foul was called upon him, forcing him to leave the game. JUST WHAT BISCH NEEDED The hair-mussing stunt occurred when Jones and Buescher were walking towards the Oklahoma basket preparatory to Jones' free throw. The latter reached over and ran his hand through Bisch's crew hair-cut and mussed it up. Bisch retaliated with the same medicine but it had a different effect upon the two players. It stirred up Bisch's ire just enough to make him a fighting ball player. He didn't get rough for he didn't have any more fouls called against him but he did get right into the middle of the fray and started taking more rebounds off the backboards and playing a better floor game. Although Buescher isn't perhaps the best player on the team to get into a rough and tumble fracs, because of his slight build, it certainly does improve his playing ability to be aroused a trifle. Perhaps Bisch should write Mr. Jones of Oklahoma a letter of appreciation in order to thank the Sooner for helping to bring forth his best ability ANOTHER REASON FOR OKLAHOMA'S ACTIONS Additional comments gleaned from the O.U.-K.U. game: During the game when Charlie Black had just made two baskets in succession and had a total of 14 points at the time, Drake leaned over to his players and said, "I hadn't counted on having to beat him alone." . . . Mit Allen, freshman basketball coach at the University, sat on the bench next to his father during the game but yesterday was forced to go to bed with a slight touch of pneumonia. . . Word from the other son in the family, Bobby, who is taking his medical work at the University of Pennsylvania, informs that the entire medical college there has been deferred until after their internship and that the boys' dormitories have been converted into barracks. Another report current among faculty members of the Big Six is that Oklahoma delayed the meeting of the athletic committee as long as they possibly could in order to try and play Tucker against the Jayhawkers Tuesday night. . . Hopes that they might do this increased when it was rumored that Sam Shirkey, Missouri's faculty athletic committeeman, might not return from attending the Sugar Bowl game and vacationing until after the O.U.-K.U. game. . . If he had not returned it would have been impossible to hold the meeting because all members must be present to vote on an issue. . . When Shirkey did return to Columbia, however, Oklahoma was forced to call an immediate meeting which resulted in the Tucker-disbarment.

Dress Warm — Better than being in a hospital. Glad to show you Coach Bruce Drake explained that "Tucker is working out just to keep in shape" and will not be eligible to play in the K-State game. If Oklahoma obtains permission from Kansas State, Tucker will be ready for action beginning with the second semester. Drake Even Up on Wins CARL'S GOOD CLOTHES Gerald Tucker, center of the present Big Six eligibility dispute, worked out with the Oklahoma Sooners basketball team yesterday as the squad drilled in preparation for the Kansas State game in Norman Saturday night. The defeat which the Sooners received from Kansas Tuesday night left Coaches "Phog" Allen and Bruce Drake square with four triumphs each. Kansas has never won from the Sooners at Norman since Drake became mentor there in 1939, and will try to break that jinx on the Oklahoma court February 27.

Kansas State also has been defeated in conference play this season. The Nebraska Cornhuskers edged out a victory over the Wildcats Tuesday night, 44 to 38, at Lincoln. Cyclones Continue Winning A second-half rally by Iowa State, defending Big Six basketball co- champion, downed Dubuque University, 46 to 30, last night at Ames for their sixth consecutive victory of the season.

"Phog" Allen, basketball coach at the University of Kansas, wrote to M. F. "Mike" Ahearn, director of athletics at Kansas State College, Manhattan. The letter was written this afternoon and mailed special delivery to Ahearn. January 8,1942 This letter was written to state Allen's stand in connection with the Gerald Tucker, University of Oklahoma star sophomore basketball player, controversy which has resulted during the past week. Complete facts on the Tucker situation will be found in the story in the two columns to the right of this letter.) Mr. N. F. Ahearn, Director of Athletics, Kansas State College, Manhattan, Kansas. Dear Friend Mike: There has been much ininstation and innuendo coming out of Norman, Okla., reflecting upon the actions of the basketball coach of the University of Kansas regarding some questionable procedure in his relationship with Gerald Tucker, the basketball player of Winfield, Kan. High School who matriculated at Kansas State and who later migrated from Kansas State to the University of Oklahoma. I sincerely trust that before you give the green light of permission to Tucker to compete at Oklahoma that you will grant Mr. Lawrence "Jap" Haskell's request and call an open meeting at which are present Jack Gardner, the basketball coach at Kansas State, Bruce Drake, basketball coach at Oklahoma, Gerald Tucker, and myself, and any newspaper men who desire to attend. All I ever promised Gerald Tucker was three tough years of competition from Kansas. He stated to me that he was going to attend the University of Oklahoma and this is the reply that I gave him. The rules and regulations governing athletics and all participation of the M.V.I.A.A., the Big Six, are crystal clear. There certainly is no ambiguity regarding the resident rule and the migrant rule. Gerald Tucker is a migrant athlete because he migrated from Kansas State to Oklahoma, and according to the rule he violated the migrant athletic regulation. The fact that his first semester was spent at Kansas State (by enrolling and residing there for over four weeks) would make him unable to participate as a regularly enrolled one year man until the end of the present semester. Therefore, the five games that he played in against Southern Methodist, Bradley, DePaul and the two other eastern teams, show that he has participated in five games illegally. He played in five games before he was eligible by the Big Six regulations. Non-conference games count in participation records the same as conference games. Neither Gerald Tucker nor the University of Oklahoma sought the permission that the Big Six regulations point out that a migrant athlete should seek. Personally I would not want to see Gerald Tucker barred from his participation. Neither would I want to see him take advantage of one semester of participation as he has done without having to meet the provisions of such a rule. Certainly he has played in five games with the University of Oklahoma when he was ineligible to play. It seems perfectly logical that Tucker has competed for Oklahoma in the semester in which he was ineligible. Therefore, I do not see how the Big Six can fail to count this one semester of participation even though illegally done. I also desire to call officially to your attention as Director of Athletics in your school the fact that Lester Layton, a student formerly from North High School of Wichita, is enrolled at the University of Oklahoma and it is alleged that the Boston Red Sox professional baseball team is paying his way through the University of Oklahoma. There may not be any connection between the fact that Lawrence "Jap" Haskell, the Athletic Director of Oklahoma, is a scout for the Boston Red Sox, and Layton's presence at Oklahoma. So that the University of Oklahoma will not feel that we are waiting until the latest moment for fear that Layton might play on the varsity baseball team for Mr. Haskell, I am calling this to your attention now in order that the matter may be investigated. Mr. Layton is a crack baseball player and it is understood that he is to be a member of the Oklahoma varsity. Perhaps a hearing which would air some of the conference situations might be a healthy experience. It might be well for an investigating committee to audit the expenditures of certain schools in the Big Six since sums of over $10,000 are listed as employment for student athletes. When it is realized that all of the competitive intercollegiate athletes in a university comprise less than 15 per cent of the male enrollment, then these figures seem rather high for money expended on student labor for athletes who compete in sports. I am sending a carbon copy of this letter to Mr. Gwinn Henry, our Director of Athletics, Dr. W. W. Davis, our faculty representative, and to your faculty representative, Dr. H. H. King. Very sincerely yours, FORREST C. ALLEN, Director of Physical Education and Recreation, Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach. All the Facts On 'Titanic Tuck' ★★★ ★★★ Allen Didn't Start It By CHUCK ELLIOTT Kansan Sports Editor The general belief among sports fans seems to be that Jayhawker coach "Phog" Allen was entirely responsible for bringing up the eligibility question concerning Gerald 'Titanic Tuck' Tucker. This isn't entirely correct. The truth of the matter is that first mention of this subject occurred Dec. 28 when a story appeared in the Kansas City Star. At that time the story said that it had been called to the attention of the writer by Warren Gee Larson of Manhattan and John MacMitchell of Topeka wondering whether the Big Six was allowing freshmen to participate this year. Basis for this query rested on the fact that: ___ query tested on the fact that Tucker enrolled at Kansas State Sept. 6, 1940, and withdrew from the Kansas school Nov. 4, 1940. Tucker enrolled immediately at Oklahoma and the authorities at that school seem to contend that the remaining weeks of that semester, spent in attendance by Tucker, should count as a full semester at Oklahoma. Semester Rule However, Rule 4, Page 9, of the Big Six athletic rules says in part, "A semester of residence shall be defined as any semester in which the student has registered in the school and has participated in athletics or has not withdrawn from school within four weeks from the date of his registration. No student shall be permitted to participate in intercollegiate athletics until one calendar year has elapsed since the time of his matriculation. He shall also have been in residence in his institution one full academic year." Taking this interpretation literally, it bars Tucker from competition in the Big Six for this semester. He is just now completing his second semester in attendance at the University of Oklahoma. Thus, if the case had been handled cleanly from start to finish by the Oklahoma school, Tucker would have been eligible to play this coming semester without any squabble having resulted. This result is the same that has been effected by the Big Six athletic committee when they ruled Monday that Tucker would be eligible to play after Jan. 30. However, the case does not stop here, unfortunately for Tucker. Migrant Rule Under Rule 11, Page 13, referring to the "migrant athlete" situation, it is stated that a school must receive written permission from the affected school before a school is allowed to play an athlete that has formerly been enrolled at another conference school. This would mean, therefore, that Oklahoma should have written to Kansas State and requested permission of that school to play Tucker in athletic contests under the Red and White colors of the Sooners. However, it now comes to light, 14 months later, that no such letter was ever written to Kansas State and that school has never officially okayed the playing of Tucker for Oklahoma or any other university other than Kansas State. This is a direct failure upon the part of the Oklahoma authorities. (continued to page eight) CBS TROUBLE STARTING THE OLD BUS?

IN DEFENSE OF CO-OPS Rooming house operators in Lawrence are worried about the growth of student co-operative houses. In these co-ops they see a young and all-too-vigorous movement that threatens to upset their means of livelihood. Some of them have had students leave to join the co-ops, thereby stopping the monthly checks that covered part of the house bills. Such persons are naturally concerned because their savings are invested at least in the house furnishings, if not in the actual property. Be this as it may, there is much to be said in the defense of the co-operative housing plan for college students. As everyone knows, the main idea of the co-op is to make it possible for students to obtain good board and room at the least possible expense. Co-operative houses at the University have accomplished this. The establishment of a second women's house is proof of the success and popularity of the movement. When a student can get board and room at a saving of eight to ten dollars a month, he can scarcely be expected to pass up the opportunity. While there is little question but what the coop housing plan does hurt the private rooming house operator to some extent, closer analysis of the problem will show that co-ops are not the only reason for empty rooms in Lawrence. Enrollment records show that both the draft and defense industries have reduced the number of students. New and more modern houses have been built, leaving a surplus of rooms for students to choose from. Another thing easily overlooked is the fact that some students now in coop houses would not be here if it were not for the low prices made available through the cooperative system. This type of student is not the kind that makes private house owners any money, as he is forced to bargain for the cheap attic or cellar room in which he can cook his skimpy meals also. For townspeople to feel that the University is unfair in building dormitories and sponsoring co-ops is to feel that the University exists for, and is obligated to Lawrence. No doubt there are mutual obligations between the two, but to accept this point of view literally would not be in accord with the real purpose of the University, which is to make education available to every man and woman who has a sincere desire to learn. K.U. is not like a state fair or some chamber of commerce creation designed to fill the town's places of business. Its first and primary duty is to students who come here to learn. If these same rooming house operators were removed to some other part of the state, they would be exceedingly grateful to find that their children could attend the University for $300 yearly instead of $400. In all too many cases that extra $100 is the difference between getting an education and not getting one. MISGUIDED PATRIOTISM Three short words, "made in Japan," stamped on the bottom of many pieces of china and what-nots of all sorts, today arouse the ire of usually calm Americans. "Throw it out" and "break the stuff," people shout as they give vent to their patriotism and anti-Nipponese sentiments. Maybe these people think they are being particularly American by refusing to tolerate Japanese goods in their homes or offices. Maybe they intend to defeat Japan by insulting her products. Maybe they just want to remove from their sight any material reminders of the little yellow unprintables. Americans should realize that this exaggerated hatred of goods of an enemy country does not show evidence of a sensible attitude. These articles have already been purchased and paid for with our own American money. We may as well get the most possible use out of them. Japan will not be defeated by America's refusal to tolerate goods previously purchased. Although an undaunted patriotism will keep us united, Americans must not lose good judgment and rationality in displaying patriotism.—F. B.

Trump has found out and is retaliating with a like resolution. Come now, kids, this can't go on forever. Out of toothpaste, Alpha Chi Margaret Whitehead hurried across the street yesterday for a tube of her favorite—Pebeco. "Pebeco guest size," she cooed to the clerk. I bccooed guest me, she cocooed to "Yes, ma'am," the clerk coooed back. Squeezing a generous portion on her brush this morning before breakfast Margaret began to brush vigorously. She suddenly stopped! Pink tooth brush? Nope, cold cream. Last night's mid-week mixup proved embarrassing to several Hill swing sters. Seen in the Union fountain last evening, all dressed up with no place to go, were Sigma Chi's Bill Norris, Glen Gilpin, Eldridge King, Jack Wilson and Jack Keene. The fellows seemed to be having a little mid-week all their own with dates Nancy Peterson, Nancy Clark, Bobbe Peck, Pei Schroeder, and Betty Rowton.

Sigma Nu rush talk about a fireplace in every room last night backfired o Plainville pledge Paul Van Dyke.

Jungle Jim Draper, one of the greatest authorities on military tactics ever to be enrolled in K.U., narrowly escaped death or serious injury when a pro-Nipponese auto driver ran his machine clear up on the sidewalk in an effort to dispose of the Draper menace. Only by scrambling behind the dubious safety of a fire hydrant did Jir avert tragedy. This bit of total-wah trivia happened in Kansas City—New Year's Eve. We hear Phi Delt pledge Bob Patterson and Pi Phi pledge Marty Sharte have broken things off after going steady all semester. Paul's burned up over the whole thing, and I can't say that I blame him Priorities Will Change Student Life Next Year First full realization of the horrors of war was brought to University students last week when the Office of Production Management in Washington greatly restricted the sale of auto mobile tires, making it impossible for University students to buy new tires, and then took drastic steps to conserve the remaining supplies of rubber by limiting civilian uses. Although the full force of these restrictions will not be felt for some months, by the school year of 1942-43 the daily life the average University student will be badly disorganized, according to the 1941 standards. Consider now the average day of a university student in the years 1942-43: J. Hamilcar Bilge and his daily life from which all rubber has vanished. Life Without Rubber, Oh Dear! Life for J. Hamilcar begins at seven in the morning and is uncomplicated until he attempts to comb his hair with his old hard-rubber comb which lacks half of its teeth.

(Why doesn't the dope wear a belt?) J. Hamilcar's mind is preoccupied with the problem of supporting his trousers with one hand and he forgets that the carpet at the foot of the stairs is no longer anchored with a rubber mat and loses 10 more minutes recovering from the floor he receives. After breakfast, our average student must walk to school in the rain as the tires on his Ball's Boyce coupe SPO F3 wore out last summer and he is un able to buy even used tires. Walkin to school in the rain is further complicated by his lack of rubbers and slicker.

Arr. Deems Taylor ALL THE FACTS---with the athletic authorities at the University of Oklahoma. And yet they are the very ones who are raising the biggest howl about the "unfairness and un-American like" ruling handed down by the committee. (continued from page five) At the time Tucker enrolled at Oklahoma, Tom Stidham, present football coach at Marquette and former football coach and athletic director at the Norman institution, should have handled the situation with the cooperation of Bruce Drake, Sooner basketball mentor. If this action would have been taken at that time, Kansas State would have undoubtedly authorized the move, altho grudgingly, and Tucker would be eligible to play today. But since nothing was done, the question now arises as to whether Tucker is not also guilty of the "migrant athlete" rule which would bar him from Big Six athletics forever. The first report by the conference eligibility Saturday found Tucker guilty under this "migratory" rule. However, the later ruling by the committee on Monday changed the decision to being guilty of the "two semester" clause which would automatically classify Tucker as a freshman at the present time. It appears from the previous statements quoted from the bylaws of the conference that Tucker is guilty upon both counts and should not be allowed to participate in Big Six athletics at all. This seems, however, a trifle unfair to Tucker. Granting that Tucker is undoubtedly guilty to an extent of transferring to Oklahoma under questionable circumstances, it seems quite severe to condemn him for the rest of his collegiate days. Oklahoma Faculty to Blame [Name] The blame should lie entirely COACH JAP HASKELL Instead of trying to fight the issue they should be eternally grateful for the fact that Tucker still has a chance of participating in five semesters of athletic competition for their school. The possibility exists, however, that Kansas State will not give Oklahoma the written permission which will be necessary to let Tucker play. If the Sooners continue to squawk and take pot-shots at the member schools of the conference, Mike Ahearn, athletic director at Manhattan, may decide that ENDS SATURDAY VARSITY All Shows 15c You've Seen the Rest Now See Their Best!

And yet they are the same officials who continue to gripe about the "Pearl Harbor" tactics Officials Were Lax Davis, Kansas' representatives on the conference athletic committee, and explained the problem to him. Kraft said that he would. But he never did. When questioned concerning this matter at the meeting in Kansas City during the past week-end, Kraft said that he hadn't done anything at that time because he was afraid he couldn't present the entire story to the members in the light which he wished. Davis called Walter Kraft, faculty athletic committee representative and superintendent of buildings and grounds at Oklahoma, Tuesday afternoon, Dec. 30, and asked him to wire the other faculty athletic committee members of the conference and get their reactions concerning the affair.

But the Oklahoma officials should not feel too hurt about this for they know that the case was in existence for 14 months and that it surely must come up for discussion eventually. The faculty committee is not altogether absolved from blame in the matter either, for the situation was called to their attention previous to the past week and that august body blissfully ignored it. It's Up To Kansas State Furthermore, Oklahoma was realized the seriousness of events for Harold Keith, sports publicity director at Norman, wrote to the Kansas City Star concerning the case and his statements were included in the first story on Dec 28. Their first meeting occurs Saturday night at Norman. Until the time and even for the rest of this month, the Sooners had best treat lightly on the toes and feelings of the Wildcats lest the latter feel that for the good of all concerned Tucker should not be given officia permission to have transferred to Oklahoma and thus automatically rule him ineligible for the remainder of his collegiate days. So as the case now stands, Kansas State holds the solution to the problem. As a result of Tucker's disbarment, the Aggies profit the most for they are the only players in the conference to face the Sooners twice this semester.

C. Buehler, chairman of the drives, reported today. "The faculty drive is unique in that it is being accomplished entirely on an honor basis, without soliciting," Buehler said. Fine Arts Proposes Course In Therapy A four-year course leading to a degree in occupational therapy has been proposed for the School of Fine Arts. The course would require 122 credit hours for graduation, would require the student to spend six semesters in the University school of Fine Arts and college of Liberal Arts and Sciences and two semesters and a summer session at the University hospital in Kansas City. It would lead to a bachelor of science degree in the School of Medicine. "Such a course is needed badly by a school in this part of the country," Miss Marjorie Whitney, chairman of the design department, said. "The nearest school offering a course of this nature is in St. Louis. Miss Whitney also said that the need for trained persons in this line would continue to increase as the war progresses. They are used almost entirely in rehabilitation work, having an extensive training in various handicrafts and in nursing. AIEE Dines Monday Hans Wechsel, representative of the Wagner Electric corporation of St. Louis, will present a demonstrated lecture Monday in the ballroom of the Memorial Union building, when the Kansas University branch and the Kansas City section of the American Institute of Electric Engineers meet there for a 7 o'clock dinner. "The student drive is also progressing with a minimum of canvassing." Thursday and today Jay Janes have been soliciting on the campus, and next week members of the faculty, Sachem, and Mortar Board will speak at the various organized houses. Sunday is national Red Cross day, to be observed by all Americans and stressed in the pulpits and newspapers. Fred Robertson, head of the student drive, urges students who have not already contributed to do so.

K-State Music Prof Plays In Sunday Vespers Whether or not he will be able to return next semester is not known. Professor Bloch is suffering from a heart ailment. The department of journalism has recently purchased a Speed Graphic camera with a speed gun and range finder. This is the latest type of news camera used on most newspapers. The department also owns a Graffix news camera. Journalists Get Speed Graphic For Photo Course The cameras will be used in a new course in News Photography, which will be taught by Verdun Daste next semester. The enrollment in this course will probably be limited to seniors who are majoring in journalism. Richard Jesson, assistant professor of music at Kansas State College, will play for the one hundred thirteenth Vesper Organ Recital Sunday afternoon at 4 p.m. in Hoch auditorium. He is Dean of the Kansas Chapter of the American Guild of Organists. The program will be as follows: Choral Preludes—Ein Feste Burg ist Unser Gott (Johann Nicolus Hanff) Lobt Gott, ihr Christen, Allzügleich (Dürieux Bixtehude). Jesson graduated from the Oberlin Conservatory in 1929, going to Kansas State the same year. Since that time he has studied in New York City under several of the country's distinguished organists. Choral and Variations — Meinen Jesum Lass ich Nicht (Johann Gottfried Walther); Rondeau, "The Fifers" (J. Francois d'Andrieu). Choral Prelude—Ach Wie Nichtig, Ach Wie Fluchingt (J. S.

Clinic Lawyers May Get 2 Degrees In 4 Years The proposal that a student may obtain both the college and law degrees in four calendar years is receiving consideration in most of the leading universities of the nation, Dean F. J. Moreau of the School of Law announced today. In carrying out this proposal many schools will operate on the three-semester basis, Moreau stated. Each semester would contain 15 or 16 weeks. This would enable the law student to complete the course in two calendar years and in the advent that the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences would undertake the same plan the student could receive both degrees in four calendar years. This announcement came as the result of a conference of the Association of American Law Schools held in Chicago Dec. 29-31, which was attended by Dean Moreau and five other members of the law faculty. During this conference two sessions were devoted to the consideration of problems confronting law schools as the result of war emergency. At the meeting the association adhered to the minimum requirements both for the admission to schools of law and law study for obtaining a degree in law. The minimum requirement of the association for the law degree are 90 weeks of law study and 1,080 classroom hours in residence. Moreau said that no deviation is permitted except where men are seniors during the school year 1941-42 and are called into the service between January and June. Bill Perdue Wins Kansas Cover Design Contest In a cover design contest sponsored by the Kansas Federation of Women's clubs, open to all Kansas artists, Bill Perdue won first prize of $25 and Eleanor Grider received honorable mention. Both are juniors in the department of design. Need Eggs for Hair Growth The new cover design composed by Perdue will appear on the January issue of the "Kansas Club Woman." London—(UP)—British men, worried about becoming baldheaded, have begun taking sulphur tablets to make up for the deficiency of that element in their diet because of the egg shortage. Dieticians have pointed out that the egg is rich in sulphur which is necessary for hair health. Emphasis was placed on the need of streamlining and expediting completion of 90 weeks of work. Missouri Adopts Quarterly System Columbia, Mo. — (UP) — The Schools of Medicine and Law at the University of Missouri will go on a quarterly basis beginning with the summer quarter, enabling students to complete their courses in a much shorter time, President Frederick A. Middlebush, announced last night. A plan for a quarterly system for the rest of the University was given to the committee of deans for consideration. A report from the committee probably will be ready in two weeks. Symphony Orchestra Sponsors Dance The Symphony Orchestra will sponsor a dance in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building at 9 o'clock tomorrow night. During intermission, orchestra members will provide entertainment. Dorothy Mae Nelson will swing out on a vocal. Melba Schilling, instructor of physiology, and T. P. Hunter, senior, will give an adagio dance, and impersonation of the "Mad Musician." Admission is 25 cents a person. Journalist to Speak To Sigma Delta Chi E. Lawson May of the Hutchinson News-Herald, who for five years was a staff member of the Manila (P.I.) Bulletin, will speak at a dinner meeting of Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalism fraternity, at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Stan Stauffer, president, announced today. The dinner will be held in the English room of the Memorial Union building. Initiation services for Richard Boyce, assistant instructor of journalism, and Raymond Derr, graduate student, will be held preceding the dinner. Musicians Assemble 800 Strong Despite the cold weather and bad road conditions, all of the organizations scheduled to appear in the Mid-West Music Clinic have arrived. More than 700 high school and junior college students are on the campus for the Clinic along with more than 100 supervisors. Russell L. Wiley, director of the University Band and director of the Clinic said that four groups which had canceled their plans to attend, had reverted to their original plans and were at the meeting. He reported that registration of supervisors had fallen short of the 200 expected to attend but that he was confident that at least 125 would be registered in the lobby of Hoch Auditorium by 4:30 this afternoon. The members of the visiting organizations are not registered. Eighteen organizations are attending the Clinic, including bands, orchestras, glee clubs, and A Cappella Choirs. Students who wish to get passes to the concert, or to any of the Clinic events, may do so by applying for them at the fine arts office. One of the highlights of the program will be the Complimentary Gala Concert in Hoch Auditorium beginning at 8 p.m. this evening. The Concert will feature the University Symphony Orchestra under Karl Kuersteiner, the University A Cappella Choir under Dean Donald M. Swarthout, and the University concert Band under Russell L. Wiley. The program will close with the Band, a picked choir of 16, and James Quy at the organ playing the new tone poem, "America," by Ernest S. Williams. The tone poem made its first appearance on the Hill at the Annual Band Concert last month. Just before Christmas the Hill Bundles for Britain gave birth to the Bluejackets group. The U.S. declaration of war had made B. for B. drop some of its bundles. Bluejackets, in step with the times, sends clothing to Uncle Sam's navy. Bluejackets Instead of Bundles Hill Women Sew for Navv Since its organization here, more than 85 University women have volunteered for Bluejackets service. The group's work consists of the knitting of woolen garments. Beginners are asked to make the simpler squares, scarves, and watch caps by the Bluejackets. More advanced knitters may attempt gloves and turtle-neck pullover sweaters. All garments must be made $ ^{\circled{1}} $ according to specifications The wool to be used and knitting instructions can be had weekly at the W.S.G.A. teas. Contributors are asked by the Bluejackets to pin name and address to the completed article to insure answer from the member of the navy whom it reaches. Although affiliated with Bundles for Britain, Bluejackets is an independent organization.

Industrial Service Kansas City Gas Company Suspends Kansas City, Mo.—(UP)—A protracted cold spell here has forced the Kansas City Gas Company to suspend service temporarily to large industrial users. One of the largest industrial plants which was forced to curtail production was the Fisher body plant. "There is no shortage of gas," T. J.

The first group of 25 service men were entertained at tennis, bridge, badminton and swimming in the afternoon, served a buffet supper, and were guests at informal dancing in the evening. Rosemary Gnaedinger, chairman of student social activities, says that by the end of the year each girl student will have had at least one service man as her guest. Forty-eight per cent of University students are entirely or partially self-supporting. Irish Horseman Now an Attorney Don C. Miller, one of Notre Dame's immortal "four horsemen" has taken on a new job—that of federal district attorney. Miller, the kid who couldn't even make the freshman team at Notre Dame, but who was later singled out by Rockne to team up with Layden. Stuhldreher and Crowley in one of the greatest backfield combinations of all time, was lifted this time from his private law practice by President Roosevelt to take the federal post. Miller's career since his graduation from Notre Dame's law school in 1925 has been a mixture of football, law practice and politics. In football, he had varying success in a number of coaching jobs. In politics, however, Miller and the voters never could team up. Attempts to land on the municipal bench never materialized, either by appointment or by election. Miller had a good record in the field for which he will always be remembered. He served as backfield coach at Georgia Tech, assistant at Ohio State under Sam Wilham and as coach at St. Xavier prep school in Louisville, Ky. The former halfback always maintained his Cleveland law practice connection and returned to it after each venture into the coaching field. The "four horsemen" seldom got together in the year following graduation, what with Layden holding out at his alma mater or, more lately, carking the professional footballers, and with "Sleepy" Jim Crowley commanding the fortunes of Fordham, Michigan State or way points. The marriage of Miller to Mae Lynch, pretty Terre Haute, Ind., society girl in 1931, however, brought about a grand reunion of the highly publicized Irish backfield. The three other members of the quartet served as ushers at the wedding here. The Millers have five children-all daughters. McCaldo and Lafelmere, "college educated steers," have added $300 to the student loan fund at the University of Nebraska Agricultural College.

The state of Texas is expected to provide funds for expanding research and the U.S. government to furnish the money for factory construction. "Schoch rubber" is reputed to be twice as durable as real rubber when used for automobile tires and much less expensive to produce than other known forms of synthetic rubber. Doctor Schoch, born at Berlin, Oct 16, 1871, came to Texas when he was a boy and attended high school at San Antonio. He graduated with honors from the University of Texas in 1894 and was granted a doctor of philosophy degree from Chicago University in 1902. He joined the University of Texas chemistry faculty in 1897, while attending summer school in Chicago, and specialized in industrial chemistry research. THURSDAY, JAN. 29 As director of the university Bureau of Industrial Chemistry, Doctor Schoch has devoted years to research on the problems of changing natural gas, of which much has been wasted in production of oil, into useful liquid and solid products. "Boys and girls want to cind things before the lads go off to war," said a court house attache at Omaha, Neb., which reported a 150 per cent increase in December marriage licenses. Marriages Take Wartime Jump United States' entry into the second World War touched off a marriage boom across the nation in the traditional wartime pattern. Still others, officials suspected, were trying to escape provisions of the selective service law by claiming dependency deferments. At Denver, Colo., state draft officials said there seemed to be "an alarming tendency to use marriage as a method of draft evasion." Some officials discounted that factor, however, and recalled that the draft became effective more than a year before the outbreak of war. A United Press survey of marriage license figures in representative cities reveals increases ranging as high as 150 per cent, compared with corresponding periods a year earlier, for the week following the attack on Pearl Harbor. County clerks and judges who issue licenses and perform marriages said the upturn followed the characteristic trend for a period after the outbreak of war. Others seeking marriage licenses were workers who had found steady jobs in the booming defense economy. Prominent in the marriage rush, they said, was the soldier who thought he might be sent soon to some distant foreign post. That soldier figured he might not see his girl again for a long time—perhaps never. University Represented In Kansas Magazine The "Kansas Magazine" an annual publication of essays, short stories, verse, and Kansas art has been received at the University. Three members of the University faculty are represented in the 1942 edition. Bernard "Poco" Frazier, instructor of architecture and design, is represented by his stoneware figure of a horse modeled from native clay. The contribution of Franczeska Frazier, his wife, is a terra cotta figure entitled "Adolescent" which took the sweepstake's prize in sculpture at the Kansas Free Fair in 1939. the State Geological Survey, is represented by an exhibition of glazed pottery made from clay found on Mt. Marjorie Whitney, chariman of the department of design at the University, has a photographed exhibit of rugs, hangings, and runners designed and woven by her. Norman Plummer, a ceramist of Margaret Craver, a graduate of the University who is now teaching at the Wichita Art association, contributed a photographed display of a teapot and box handwrought in silver and enamel.

La Guardia of New York. protecting American civilian deprotecting American Civilian Defense populations to the war department yesterday. The senate version of the same bill did not touch the OCD's administrative setup. The bill probably will be sent to conference today where administration leaders hope to eliminate house amendments which would upset the present OCD administration, and leave Mrs. Franklin D. Rosevelt, OCD co-director, as well as La Guardia, out of a job. The bill originally was an authorization for the present OCD to spend an unlimited amount of money for civilian defense. The senate passed it without extraneous amendments. When it came up in the House yesterday, the first amendment limited the spending authorization to $100,000,000. Then, after heated debate over the ability of one man to run not only New York City but the civilian defense setup, another amendment transferring the entire job to the war department was accepted, 187 to 168. Before the final vote another amendment to establish an assistant secretary of war as head of the civilian defense was defeated by one vote. Thus, under the House version, Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson technically would assume La Guardia's present duties.

How uncertain the future may be is entirely problematical. It is a fact, however, that the caliber of the various sports will suffer. Whether this will reflect in a lack of interest shown by fans is doubtful. The American people are sports conscious to begin with and during trouble-some times they will be more than ready to relax by attending sporting attractions. NAVAL RESERVE GETS THE MOST Fans in the Valley are already noticing the number of athletes who are joining various branches of the service and also engaging in defense work. Latest recruits of this nature are Mike Fitzgerald, Jack Lister, Don Reece, Irvin Pitts, and Harold Adams, all members of Missouri's Sugar bowl football team, who joined the Naval Reserve in Kansas City Wednesday. This means that all but the latter will return to Missouri's football team next fall to plague the Jayhawkers once again. Two former Missouri athletes, Martin Nash and Herbie Gregg, former basketball stars, were also in attendance at the examination Wednesday. Nash failed to pass the physical because of a bad right arm. Gregg, however, passed the examination and will be called in June. Roy Edwards, Jayhawker head cheerleader this year, also passed the exam at the same time as the Tiger players. Edwards said that Gregg plans to return to Missouri to complete his eligibility this coming semester. Gregg thought that Kansas and Iowa State had the best teams this year. He also was of the opinion that Al Budolfson, all conference forward on Iowa State's quintet this year, was the best player in the conference last year. DOC SIEBERT IN ALASKA Other late additions to Uncle Sam's war efforts are Raymond "Squeak" Meyer, all Kansas Conference center from McPherson and member of the Kansas All-Star team which opposed Ft. Riley this fall, and Harold Koehn, former all state Class B basketball star from Buhler and member of the Pittsburg Teachers squad, who joined the Navy in Wichita during the Christmas holidays. Art Poindexter, former K-man in swimming three years ago, was one of the defenders of Wake Island during the seige of that stronghold by Japan. Tom Guy, member of Kansas State's basketball squad last year and counted upon strongly by Jack Gardner to bolster his court team with age and height this year, is stationed at the Naval Reserve Aviation Base at Corpus Christi, Texas. Another name familiar to Hill fans is that of Dr. Norman C. Siebert. He was football physician in 1940 and also a member of the Watkins Memorial hospital staff. Siebert is now stationed at the Aleutian Islands, off the coast of Alaska. IT STARTED WITH THE INDIANS The late Dr. James Naismith, former member of the physical education department at the University, is generally given credit for originating the game of basketball but now a man comes along and disputes that supposition. (continued to page eight) Black Is Kansan Of Long Standing He's listed as a graduate of Southwest High School, Kansas City, Mo., but Charlie Black, sophomore star, is proud to be a Sunflower state product of long standing. The year that Charlie was a senior in high school and graduated from Southwest was the only year he lived in the state of Missouri. For 10 years prior to that, the Black family had lived in Topeka and Charlie had his first two years of high school competition at Highland Park high school in Topeka He starred in football, basketball and track at Highland Park and went on to bigger achievements in his senior year at Southwest. The result was an offer to take his advanced schooling at the University of Wisconsin and Black decided to see what a Big Ten school was like. While he was spending a year at Wisconsin, Charlie's family moved from Kansas City to Lawrence. When he returned from the Big Ten school at the end of his freshman year, having decided to continue his schooling elsewhere, the University came as a logical choice for Black. Last year, he was a standout on the Jayhawk's freshman team. Santa Cruz, Calif. — (UP) — Mrs. Marie Durgan adds to the customary blackout rules: "Keep all doors closed during a blackout." She bumped into an open one during the first black-out here and received a black eye. K.U. Cagers Play 105th Against M.U. Another chapter in one of the nations' oldest basketball rivalries will be written Wednesday at Columbia when the Kansas Jayhawks and the Missouri Tigers clash on the court for the one hundred fifth time. Back in 1907 the two schools met on the court for the first time. Since then their meetings have been frequent and the records show that Kansas has triumphed 65 times with Missouri the winner on 39 occasions. Kansas Favored Victorious in both of their games with the Tigers last year, the Jayhawks are favored to down Missouri again Wednesday. Kansas has played only three games to date this winter and has won them all. A convincing 54-32 victory over Oklahoma started the Jayhawks on their drive toward another Big Six championship. Eight times in the last eleven seasons, Dr. F. C. Allen's cagers have won or tied for the conference title. Missouri's tall men, Roy Storm, 6-foot 5-1 inch junior, and Ross Burns, 6-foot 6-inch sophomore, will have their work cut out for them in endeavoring to Charlie Black, Kansas' brilliant 6-foot 4-inch forward. Black, a 190-pound sophomore proved too much for the Oklahoma defense, stuffing in 10 field goals and five free throws for 25 points. He also had been high point man against Denver. Scores Off Pivot A good pivot shot man, Black is a terror for the defense to attempt to cover. His pivot when he fakes a shot covers so much territory that it pulls his guard completely out of position. If the guard does not follow him when he starts his fake, he carries it through for a shot. The big boy's rebound work was a feature of the Oklahoma game. John "thin man" Buescher, center, and Ralph Miller, senior forward, carry most of the remainder of the burden on offense. Buescher came through for 10 points against Oklahoma, while Miller was chalking up 11. Reserve strength at K.U. is plentiful this season, and standing out in the Oklahoma game among the reserves were Charlie Walker, letterman guard, and Jack Ballard, 6-foot 6-inch sophomore.

The The Beta's have also played three games already, and have lost to Newman I and Sig Alph. But both were hard-fought contests, and the veteran Beta delegation can be depended upon to put up a scrap. Officials for this second division game will be "Buck" Thomas and "Curly" Hayden. Mills Leads Battenfeld In yesterday's only "A" team intramural game, Rock Chalk defeated Battenfeld 25 to 16. Outplayed in the first half, Battenfeld, led by Jim Mills, started a rally in the third period, but couldn't even up the score. Mills put in ten points for Battenfeld, and John Reber was high for Rock Chalk with nine. The Phi Gam "C" boys looked like the Fiji "A" team for a night in taking a 46 to 9 victory from A.T.O. "C". Although the game looked like a slow and low-scoring event at first, the Fijii's got hot in the second quarter to make the half-time count read 19 John Reynolds and Bob Hodgeson sank 14 and 10 points respectively for the Fiji's, and were also responsible, along with their teammates, for keeping the ball out of A.T.O. hands. Both squads cooperated in making this an exceptionally clean contest. Only 13 fouls were called . Phi Delt "B" also chalked up an impressive margin over Battenfeld "B" after a closely-fought first half in which scoring was neck and neck. In the second half, Don Wysong and "Junior" Kanaga led a Phi Delt of defensive drive that brought the final score to 37 to 14. Kanaga was high scorer with 16 points.

We don't know whether he is the best player in the Big Six and we want to find out." Thus Coach Forrest C. "Phog" Allen voiced his and his Jayhawk basketball team's view today on the Big Six eligibility altercation over Gerald Tucker, Oklahoma athlete. Allen stated he had no desire to reopen the case, now that Mike Ahearn, Kansas State director of athletics considered it closed, but added that he had phoned Ahearn asking him to keep the matter open until "certain insinuations about Kansas by the University of Oklahoma* by the University of Oklahoma athletic authorities were cleared up." Fhog described as a "weak policy" the conference eligibility committee's "declaring Tucker ineligible under the migrant athlete rule than backing down. By this move," he charged, "the Big Six faculty lost prestige." "I think it would be a shame to迪cipline him (Tucker) completely because of the Oklahoma administration's failure to keep him in the clear in the situation," Allen said. "Under conference rules it is the obligation of he member schools to see that their uthetes are eligible." Co-Champion Cyclones Meet Tigers "Dr. Davis (Kansas faculty representative) told me that he notified Kraft (Oklahoma's representative) the first day he talked to Ahearn, and the Oklahoma representative volunteered to take a telegraphic poll of the members, so O.U. was amply notified." Allen declared. In stating Kansas' faculty representative's stand on Tucker's eligibility ruling, "Phog" averred, "Dr W. W. Davis—from the beginning—was only for disbarring Tucker for the first semester because he was playing illegally." Iowa State College, Big Six conference co-champion and potent threat for this season's crown, has wound up its pre-season campaign, with a record of six victories and no losses. As a result, the Cyclones will be geared high for their conference opener tomorrow night against Missouri at Ames. Paced by Captain Al Budolfson, all-Big Six forward, and Guard Carol Schneider the Cyclones have been impressive as an offensive team and should figure high in conference standings. Also, Bob Harris, brilliant forward, and Leon Uknes, junior guard and spark-plug of the team, have shown up well in the scoring column. Reserve Strength Strong Iowa State's reserve strength is considerably stronger than last year's, with able substitutes in "Rub" Mickelson, sophomore guard, and Bob Hayes, forward, who led his teammates in scoring against Dubuque Wednesday night. However, defensively the Cyclones are not up to the same level with last year's squad, even with the fine record already set this season. The Missouri Tigers, who will also open their conference play at Ames tomorrow night, have a strong team in both offense and defense. With Captain Loren Mills and George Evans leading in the defensive department, the Tigers have a strong point. Also, the Bengals have made considerable improvement in shooting, being paired by Don Harvey, senior forward, and Ed Madeny, sophomore standout. Wildcats at O.U. The other conference game will be played at Norman with the Sooners entertaining the Kansas State Wildcats. The Wildcats have shown up well in their pre-season non-conference games with a squad consisting of six returning from last year's squad and eleven sophomores. Sophomore standout in the K-State - Nebraska game Tuesday night was Bruce Holman. Jack Horacek, brilliant forward and leading Wildcat scorer; Dan Howe, letterman center; and Larry Beaumont, regular guard, all have shown up well in non-conference play. The Wildcats will get a taste of the speedy Sooners tomorrow night who are spark-plugged by 6-foot 4-inch Paul Heap, junior guard, and the diminutive "Ug" Roberts, forward. The Sooners haven't gotten off to as good a start as other conference teams, but they by no means have a weak team and should not be underrated. The other two conference squads, Nebraska and Kansas, remain idle the rest of this week. Read Papers at Summerfield Colloquium Tonight Summerfield Scholars will hear two papers at their colloquium and dinner at 6 o'clock tonight in the Colonial Tea room.

Three teams were chosen and a double elimination tournament was played. Armand Dixon, Stan Hansen, and Kenny Thompson were the stand-out players on the court. Rebounding and passing were emphasized.

HELP THE RED CROSS President Roosevelt has called upon America to produce an astounding number of vital implements of war—during 1942, we plan to produce 60,000 airplanes, 45,000 tanks, 20,000 anti-aircraft guns, and 8,000,000 tons of merchant shipping. The estimate for 1943 dwarfs the figures quoted above. This war program is expected to cost 56 billion dollars during the fiscal year, and will be paid by taxes and bonds, and more taxes and bonds. The price is heavy, but people will pay that price, because it is worth the sacrifice to preserve and insure the right of homo sapiens to walk free and erect among the animals of the earth. But we must not forget that even in a righteous war the use of these weapons will bring death, suffering, famine, disease, privation. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have geared themselves to follow in the wake of the swiftest motorized division, the fastest warplane. As it has in the past, the Red Cross has mobilized to ease the horrors of war. It is asking for a flood of contributions to tend to the needs of humanity on the greatest battlefront in history. A Red Cross drive is being sponsored here on the Hill, with a goal of $500. We students should all help to meet this goal, to surpass it. It may mean going without a pack of cigarets, or a beer, or a show, but when we willingly pay the large price in a war to save our way of life, we can pay a small price to ease needless suffering. Patriotism and Flag-Waving Patriotism is, in time of war, the one thing expected of the public. All too often, however, in lieu of patriotism the government must be satisfied with masses of inspired flag-waving. People surge about the streets bleating things like "Remember Pearl Harbor" and smash china statuettes with the "Made in Japan" label. Some of these individuals, are no doubt, convinced that they are being patriotic—that these are the deeds designed to strengthen morale and win the war. True patriotism involves sacrifice beyond donation of the time required to sing "Any Bonds Today," over the nightly beer. If the people are willing to buy defense bonds and stamps in proportion to the frequency with which they sing and talk about it, our chances to win the war are materially increased. Let's stop singing these quasi-patriotic songs, which are neither good music, good taste, nor good patriotism, and do something constructive. At least until a good song comes along. If they read newspapers with an analytical eye, rather than informing friends that we are trouncing the Japs on all fronts, then perhaps they have done something worth while. Well meant, but false information is neither helpful nor patriotic. If they are willing to do without tires and aluminum kettles, and the many other things to which they have become accustomed, but which are not vital necessities, then they are patriotic. If they fail to buy up all the existing supply of luxuries, to be stored in garrets until wanted, they are being patriotic. If they join the army, rather than shrieking in chorus, "Sam, You Made the Pants Too Long," they are being patriotic. Current Events Notes: Due to the unsettled condition of world affairs, a Portland, Oregon, patriot signs his name as follows—"Adolph (not Hitler) Goehring (not Goering)." O--section of the regions where the planet might be was photographed on separate nights. Tombaugh carefully examined thousands of star images on each of the hundreds of plates. National mortality rates may be higher, because of increased business activities, if the experience of previous booms and depressions indicates an accurate trend, life insurance authorities say.

Rock Chalk Talk DEAN OSTRUM DEAN SIMS Guest Conductor Judging from the athletic warm-ups, with hoods attached, and the ear-muffs of all shapes, sizes, and color combinations being sported around, this frigid weather has brought out of hibernation a horde of gnomes and pixies that we didn't know existed here. Also, this winter, I'll bet the little man on Mars who sits watching us through his spy-glass, 'bout goes nuts when he sees all the females wearing trousers as a part of their ski costumes. He probably wonders what the heck our world is coming to. Well, what is it? Ask Dean Lawson. Phi Gamma Delta nearly lost a tradition yesterday noon when sophomore Fred Mitchelson seated himself at the senior end of the dinner table to partake his lunch with the lofty upperclassmen. The wall was deafening when the seniors discovered the intruder, so a paddle session was called for in the evening. Evening came and the seniors stood Mr. Mitchelson up (or rather bent him to a 45 degree angle) at the end of the room, then they picked up their paddles and lined up behind him. By this time the remainder of the sophomore Fijis had decided they should rally and quick, or else the seniors might start clicking and de-tail poor Fred. So they declared open war on all seniors. The ensuing fight raged in the basement, on the first floor, on the second floor, and on the third floor. Senior vs. sophomore, and vice-versa. Senior No. 1 roared down on poor Ferdie with his paddle uplifted—and missed him. Senior no. 2 did the same, also no. 3. Peace came abruptly when participant Roscoe Hambric, senior, got kicked in the mouth—and spat out a tooth. They found Mr. Krueger, patted his back, then got him to talking about his recent trip to South America. He became so heapped up in his lecture, and the boys became so interested, that without anyone thinking, the five went to Jean Fisher's hotel room, where the lecture continued. After the concert in Topeka Tuesday evening, four Sigma Phi Epsilons—Jim Beers, Bill Burt, Pete Moser and Jean Fisher—dashed backstage to congratulate director Karl Krueger on his fine orchestra. When his stock of stories about Rio and Buenos Aires began to dwindle, Krueger thought of looking at his watch. Hey, the train should have left a half hour ago! The seniors kissed the sophomores and made up—that is, all except Roscoe, who had a sore mouth. By the grape-vine method we just found out why the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra pulled into Union station at K.C. a half-hour late Tuesday night. Finally, in January, 1930, the work was rewarded by success, when Tom-baugh noticed a small object moving across his photographic plates. For the first time since 1846 a major member of the sun's planet family had been discovered. Clyde Tombaugh, graduate of the University in 1935 and discoverer of the planet Pluto, has made another discovery in the field of astronomy—three new galactic star clusters. Wins Scholarship A former Kansas farm boy, Tombaugh discovered the planet in 1930 while working at the Lowell observatory in Flagstaff, Ariz. Dr. Lowell of the observatory had calculated the orbit of the planet some 20 years earlier, but the planet itself had never been photographed. The painstaking task of making and examining the hundreds of photographs which would be necessary for the experiments was assigned to Tombaugh. Each minute With the aid of the $500 Slosson scholarship, Tombaugh came to the University of Kansas and continued his study of astronomy, receiving his bachelor of science degree in 1935 and his master of science degree a year later. The scholarship was established by Mrs. E. E. Slosson after Dr. Slosson's death in 1929. A graduate of the University and once an instructor in chemistry, Dr. Slosson was a tireless worker for the advancement and popularization of science. He was the first editor of Science Service, a Scripps Syndicate feature printed in hundreds of newspapers since its founding in 1921, and was the author of several laymen's books on science. The responsible four sped the embarrassed director to his waiting train load of orchestra. K.U. Grad Discovers New Star Clusters By HOWARD SELLS Discoveries Are Published Tombaugh now has a lifetime appointment at the Lowell Observatory. Photographs and descriptions of his new discoveries appeared in the August issue of Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific. Latest report on Tombaugh's work were brought back from a recent trip to Texas by Miss Anna McCracken, instructor in philosophy. While in Dallas for the Southwest Philosophical Conference, Miss McCracken attended a lecture by Professor Slipher, head of the Lowell Observatory, at a meeting of the Association for the Advancement of Science, and talked with Mr. Slipher about Tombaugh's work.

At least one year of college attendance was reported by 11.7 percent of the state's population. The average Kansan is 30 years old and has had a little less than nine years of formal schooling. The median age of residents of the state is set at 30.4 years as compared with 27.2 at the time of the census 10 years ago. (The median age is that age which divides the population into two equal groups-one half being older, and one-half younger, than the median.) There was no accurate basis for comparing the amount of schooling of the average 1940 Kansas resident with his predecessor of 1930 because the (1940) census was the first in which that information was compiled. Earlier censuses divided only the literate and the illiterate. Alameda Zoo Refuses 'Generous' Offer of Bear Alameda, Calif. — (UP) — Sidney Snow, director of the Alameda County Zoological Gardens, refused the offer of Mrs. Ellarena Stitter of Weaverville, to donate a cub bear to the zoo. She listed as its qualifications as a desirable addition to the zoo the following deeds on the cub's part: "It broke its chain again yesterday. "It dragged a man into the creek. "It chased another man up a tree. "It tackled a small boy. "It tried to tear the screen door of a woman's house. "Then it bit the hand of the person who threw the scalding water." Snow replied that for the moment the zoo's bear quota was full. Baer Slated For Beating Again Tonight New York—(UP)—Some night, when the cigar smoke at ring-side hangs in great, billowing clouds and the cheers of the crowd crash down from the stands in waves, an arm will whip out of nowhere to thud against a smooth, tan chin and the reign of the greatest world heavyweight champion will be over It will all be over in just about the length of time it takes a man to blink his eye. The graceful body of Joseph Louis Barrow will go limp and then it will slump into the resin dust on the canvas just as the raggle-tagle body of a scarecrow slumps when the props are jerked suddenly away. But it won't happen tonight. It won't happen tonight because, ironically enough, the amiable Chancellor Deane Malot's home was formerly the home of the late Mrs. Elizabeth Watkins. giant of a boy you know as Jacob "Buddy" Baer is too big to make it happen. IF NOT IF SO Charles F. Bongardt, law professor at Creighton University, has been appointed supervisor of the revision of the Nebraska statutes. American Institute of Chemical Engineers has issued a charter for a student chapter at the University of Texas. SUBSCRIBE TO THE DAILY KANSAN NOW! Going to Be Here Next Semester?

PAGE EIGHT Allies Hold Japs Back At Singapore By UNITED PRESS Japan's all out general of fensive against Singapore smashed against sturdy British lines in Malaya today but Allied armed forces were taking an "incredible" toll of casualties and striking back at the enemy by land, sea and air. In the air, British bombers renewed a series of American and British attacks from Burma against Japanese bases in Thailand, again striking at Bangkok. At sea, a submarine (probably of the American or Dutch fleet) sank the 2,250-ton Japanese freighter Unkai Maru No. 1, off Izu Peninsula, southwest of Tokyo and deep within Japan's home waters. The sinking of four other Japanese ships by American submarines previously had been announced in Washington. The Japanese high command claimed the sinking of the 11,050-ton U.S. airplane tender Langley near Johnson Island, in the South Seas, but Washington said there was no information to support that claim. The British-American raids from Rangoon, which again was attacked by Japanese bombers, were now credited with destroying from 53 to 80 enemy planes. The allied attacks also struck through the air at Japanese bases in Malaya in an effort to lessen the force of the enemy drive down the Peninsula toward Singapore and the Japanese lost several bombers in raids against Allied bases. Both Singapore and Tarakan, an oil base off the North Borneo coast, were bombed by the enemy but little damage was reported. UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS In the land fighting some 200 to 250 miles north of Singapore, the Japanese were throwing heavy tanks and dive-bombers into a powerful drive to take the key city of Kuala Lumpur. A Singapore dispatch said that they had made slight progress in their push along the Slim river front but that the enemy losses had been "incredibly high." United Press correspondent Harold Guard, at the fighting front, reported that British comandos were carrying the brunt of the defense of Kuala Lumpur and had thrown the enemy back time after time as tanks and other armored vehicles advanced over piles of their own dead. FRIDAY, JANUARY 9, 1942 Minneapolis — (UP) — Ted Williams, 23, American League batting champion last season, today awaited an induction call into the Army after passing his draft physical exam successfully. Ted Williams Will Be Drafted Draft physicians pronounced the 183-pound Boston Red Sox slugger a "healthy specimen." Williams was reclassified into class 1-A after he previously had been deferred because of his dependent mother. Camp Barkeley, Texas — (UP) — Military routine became such a habit with Supply Sergeant Kreth White that he slipped into the military style for official correspondence when he wrote to his girl. The letter started: "Subject—Love." Subject Love, Says Soldier SPORTIN' AROUND Came Late," a part of a chapter is developed. Solid rubber balls were used and the goals were placed vertical to the ground. Players dribbled the ball by striking it with their hips and the team putting the ball through the hoop first won the game. (continued from page 10) It seems that people were playing the sport in a somewhat primitive fashion as early as the tenth century. In Gregory Mason's book; "Columbus Came Late," a part of a chapter is devoted to "Basketball and the Toltecs." (continued from page jour) One of the oddities of the game was the fact that the losing team had to give up its clothes to the winner. According to Mason's version, it was the Aztecs whom the Spaniards first saw playing this game. He traces the history of the game further back by noting that scientists have been inclined to believe that the Aztecs got the game from the Toltecs, their predecessors in that region. The Toltecs themselves were believed to have taken the game to northern Yucatan, the northern part of the area which was occupied by the Mayan civilization, when Toltec mercenaries were imported by the ruler of Mayapan to help in civil war against the other Maya cities. This must have been toward the end of the twelfth century, the book presumes. IBA'S RECORD IS GOOD Oklahoma A. and M. starts its Missouri Valley conference campaign tonight against Drake University. Henry Iba, coach of the Cowboys, is the man on the throne at Stillwater and rightly enough. In 14 seasons that he has coached basketball at Oklahoma City's Classen High School, Maryville (Mo.) Teachers, Colorado University, and at Oklahoma A. and M. there's been only one year when his team wasn't first or second in its league. During those 14 years, Iba coached teams have won 296 games, lost only 68, to gain him a lifetime coaching percentage of .813. During his seven year term as head basketball coach at A. and M., his teams have won 68 games of the 88 games played by the Cowboys in conference competition. HE GOES IN FOR DEFENSE In all the years of Iba's coaching he has been a stickler for defense and comparatively low-scoring games. He makes his players work the ball in close to the basket before shooting and he doesn't favor anyone taking too many shots. In a pre-Christmas game against Wichita the Aggies shot only 27 times. This is in comparison with the 83 shots the Jayhawkers took Tuesday night against Oklahoma. The Sooners on the other hand took 64. In one of Kansas State's games on the West Coast the University of Washington Huskies took 92 shots and made 19. What makes the shooting record of the Cowboys stand up against these other teams is their number of completions. They made nine of their shots for a 33 percent average. Twenty-three of the Aggies shots were taken within a ten-foot radius of the basket. "ROPE" GOES DEFENSIVE Odds and ends: When Howard Engleman played for Phillips 66 against Wichita Boeing the other night, he did not take a single shot. This is in direct contrast to his previous appearance at the Forum when he set a new scoring record whil eplaying for the Jayhawkers against Oklahoma. . . . One of the members of the Boeing Bomber team is Home Wesche, former Kansas State scoring flash. He transferred from a Kansas City Naismith league team to take a defense job with the airplane factory and play on their basketball team. . . . Coach "Phog" Allen will journey to Ames Saturday night to do his first scouting of the season. He will view the Iowa State-Missouri clash. Missouri is the next opponent of the Jayhawks, the game being played at Columbia Wednesday. . . . Johnny Kline, last year's defensive ace of the Jayhawker quintet, is in business in Hutchinson with his father but is Navy-bound soon. Raid Shelter for Entire Town Crooksville, Ohio — (UP) — An abandoned coal mine, large enough to accommodate the entire population of Crooksville, has been converted into a bomb-shelter. The mine is conveniently located at the head of Main Street. Blade Imbedded 27 Years Drumright, Okla. — (UP) —Charles Carter, 49, Sac and Fox Indian, came to a Drumright physician with a sore spot under his right arm. The physician probed and pulled out the end of a knife blade. Carter recalled that 27 years ago he had a fight with a man who slashed him with a knife. Zowie! Hardly a Lady--- But Oh! What a Girl!

MacPhail said that he had heard all sorts of rumors pertaining to baseball's future, among them; New York—(UP)—Major league club owners are very much up in the air about the war, Larry MacPhall, president of the Brooklyn Dodgers, revealed today in discussing baseball's future and the contract situation. That the majors wouldn't finish the 1942 season. That night baseball will be banned. That the government's demands on our railroads and airlines won't permit the western trips. The civilian defense won't permit large crowds, day or night. The Yankees, who rarely mail contracts before Feb. 1, plan to follow the same procedure this year. The Yanks may have the toughest man in baseball to sign—Jolting Joe DiMaggio, who, on the basis of his 1941 season, should get a handsome raise.

Men who desire to apply for these scholarships should obtain application blanks from the office of the Committee on Aids and Awards, in Room 1, Frank Strong hall at once. These blanks, together with a personal letter from each candidate, should be returned as quickly as possible. Dr. Gilbert Ulmer, chairman of the Residence Halls Scholarship committee, urges all applicants to explain to the operators of their rooming houses that they are making applications for hall scholarships and not to make commitments for the second semester. Several of the men who are in the halls now will go to Rosedale next semester to enter the Medical school, and it is expected that a number of others will enter military service.

Buehler, chairman of the drive, revealed yesterday. Jay Janes solicited $73.47 Thursday and Friday toward the $500 student goal. In the contributions the Jay Janes received, dimes predominated, but there were numerous quarters and a few half-dollars. One independent girl, Alice Hood, sophomore in the College, put in a check for five dollars.

A more immediate danger is rapidly approaching, and perhaps it is time now to give some advice on what to do when the finals come. Every semester the faculty forces start a campaign to spread the doctrines of culture and education, culminating in a major offensive, which period has come to be known as "Final Week." Herewith is some free advice on how to conduct your counter-attack for final week, which you may take for what you wish. This is probably about what you expect, but, after all, what do you expect for nothing? What to do when the finals come: 1. If you are one of the genius type (or try to be), go around telling everyone that you have never had to study for a final, as if you considered anyone who studies for them a moron. Go on. Be one. Make people hate you. When they find out you spend all your spare time studying, they'll LOVE you. 2. If you are one of the hypocrite genus, you can lose friends and alienate people by insisting that you can't possibly pass your finals, and then, afterwards, telling everyone how wonderfully you did. more fun than the grinds. 3. If you come somewhere near the description of an average student, are honest, and admit that unless you study like hell for your exam you will certainly be bounced out on your dainty ear, you are facing facts. There is only one course to follow: Start going out every night and leave your studying to be done between five and six o'clock in the morning. You may not live, but you will have 4. Speaking of the grinds, let us consider them. A typical grind has no room in his daily schedule for anything not concerned with acquiring a degree. As finals draw near, he starts to live more than ever like a monk, beginning to cut down on the time he wastes on eating. By the time finals start, he has cut out all meals, and begins to look like one of Bob Hope's descriptions of Skinnay Ennis. About this time, he begins to act as prescribed in section five (below). 5. When you do finally begin, after deciding that you haven't a snowball's chance in California.(or Florida) of passing any of your courses, here are a few tips which will assure you undying popularity. First, set a large bear trap just inside your door (be sure to cover it with a dirty shirt, so no one will sus- peet). If an intruder should get by this obstacle, have a ball bat handy (a piece of lead pipe will do, if priorities have caused a shortage of bats) so that you can beat them over the head. Once you have them down, don't neglect to kick their teeth in, preferably with heavy, hobnail boots. To make sure that they won't bother you again, accompany your attack with a vivid description of their ancestry. This method has worked very well in most instances. It works so well because, by the time the fellow gets out of the hospital, finals will be over. Usually, after you treat one this way, all others are scared away. This is fortunate, as then you will only have one charge of assault and battery to face. 6. If none of the above methods appeal to you, you can always try to carry on in your everyday way of living, and act like a normal individual. You have no idea how difficult, how annoying to others, the latter course is, when everyone else is going "mad" over exams. 7. Here is the best solution of the problem: join the army or navy. This will not only save your neck from the bloody axe of probation, but will give you a chance to help preserve the freedom under which you have the privilege of going to college and subjecting yourself to the tortures of exams. Women will please disregard this, as reliable information indicates that females are being accepted for military service just vet. Perhaps these suggestions will help you to relieve your pre-final worries. Remember, these are perilous times, and everyone must make sacrifices, and for Ucle Sam, and for Clayton, remember Pearl Harbor. Random Harvest Hilton Spins War Yarn Movie Styled By CHARLES G. PEARSON Random Harvest is an absorbing little story by a man who once wrote literature. It is the story of a man, injured in World War I, who tries to piece together the frayed threads of his memory. The book gives the rather unsavory impression of having been created with an eye to adaptation for the movies. Mr. Hilton, who once was well on the road to literary fame in England, has since fallen prey to Hollywood. His two greatest books, Goodbye Mr. Chips, and Lost Horizon, have been unequalled by anything he has done since his arrival in the Gilded City. Charles Ranier, the hero of Random Harvest, suffered shell shock and a crushed leg in the war. Loss of memory resulted and for several years he wandered about, trying to remember who he was and where he belonged. At length he fell in with a theatrical troupe which was showing in a performance known as "Salute the Flag." One of the female performers had helped him escape detection after he had wandered out of an asylum during the Armistice jubilation. He followed the troupe for some time, until one night, when doubling for an indisposed performer, he bungled the lines horribly. He pulled up stakes and left the company. The girl followed him and they were later married. They lived at the home of a kind-hearted clergyman, and Charles took up writing. Sidelights are his struggle with the family finances, and ultimate success, which enabled them to continue their useless existence, but which did not in anyway clarify or brighten his own life. Fortunately for readers who lean to romance, he fell in love three times, twice with the same woman, and once with a woman who reminded him of the first. The story ended happily, but foggily. He went to Liverpool one day to see his publisher, slipped and fell on the wet pavement, and the shock was sufficient to restore his memory. Unfortunately, the period immediately preceding his fall was now blacked out. One by one, events and occurrences serve to throw light on happenings from his past, and it is the unravelling of his memory that is the interesting phase of the story. A mystery that shall remain forever undisclosed was why, in God's name, his wife refused to inform him of her true identity and bring an end to his years of groping. Perhaps she enjoyed seeing him suffer with the wifely sadism which sometimes prevails. At any rate, to this obtuse reader, the ending was obscure and unsatisfactory, leaving entirely too many questions unanswered. Fiction, to be worthwhile, must be told in a manner that includes the reader in its action. Random Harvest is told with cinematic detachment, and that may account for its lack of effectiveness. You will have to do better than this, Mr. Hilton. Peabody To Give Faculty Recital Irene Peabody, associate professor of voice, will appear in a School of Fine Arts recital in Frank Strong auditorium at 8 o'clock to tomorrow night.

Fans of the University have a pretty good idea on just how Coach "Phog" Allen of the Jayhawkers feels about the case so it might be worth while to note how a few others in this section consider the situation. John Cronley, sports editor of The Daily Oklahoma, had this to say: "The fine hand of Doc 'Phog' Allen has seemed busy in the whole proceedings. What a time for the Mount Oread oracle to take the rostrum. If Tucker has been ineligible, such a condition has existed for more than a year. Suddenly he's ruled out. Suddenly you notice Oklahoma opens its Big Six warfare against Kansas." ALLEN NO DIFFERENT THAN OTHERS Allen had a quick and easy comeback for this. Said "Phog." "I did only that which any other school in the Big Six would have done if their school had opened against Oklahoma in the first game of the conference schedule. If Missouri or Iowa State had been the opponent of the Sooners in the first game of the Big Six season then they would have instigated proceedings in the same manner that I did." This is a most logical conclusion which everyone seems to admit. Further-more, it is an admission upon the part of the Sooner writer that the authorities at Oklahoma were slow in gaining Tucker's official eligibility. It was undoubtedly their hope that the situation could be avoided. Bob Miller, sports editor of The Daily Nebraskan, called Allen's remarks an "unprovoked" attack. He continues by saying that "Phog's" pep rally speech backfired upon him and that Bruce Drake, Oklahoma's basketball coach, was "easily the victor in the clash" of words. For a person who was nearly two hundred miles from the scene of the debate, Miller has unusual qualities as a debate judge. But from the laughs and snirks which were evidenced by the students at the rally, Drake's remarks formed merely a weak comeback. Doc Allen still retained his position as Number 1 debater in athletic circles in the eyes of the Jayhawkers. Miller did, however, have some worthwhile statements in his column. "In Allen's latest speech," he continued, "he made some statements that have tremendous strength. If it is true that the greatest percentage of Oklahoma athletes are subsidized something should be done, but if he is making his slam without facts to back him up, it is pretty serious. These charges should be proved or be retracted but since they have been issued, something should be done. The interests of the entire conference are at stake." GARDNER SAYS. "RULE" WAS VIOLATED" Continuing around the conference, it might be well to listen to Jack Gardner, Kansas State basketball coach, whose chances of producing a championship squad this year were considerably lessened when Tucker removed to the Norman campus. Gardner said that he had entertained no wish to penalize Tucker for "actions of Oklahoma university." "The conference rule covering migration of athletes is clear and was violated," he said. "The committee's original decision which barred Tucker from Big Six conference competition was correct and Oklahoma should feel very fortunate indeed that the decision was changed allowing Tucker to play after the first semester upon Kansas State's approval. "It is not now and never has been my idea to hurt the boy," he continued. "But the whole situation could have been avoided had Oklahoma university confined its rushing to Oklahoma boys." Gardner undoubtedly has the correct slant on the affair for he has.been closely connected with the affair from its very beginning. It is to his credit that he can stand up and state his convictions concerning the matter which is more than other members of the Kansas State faculty are capable of doing. ELIGIBILITY COMMITTEE NOT BACKED UP Mike Ahearn, director of athletics at Kansas State, took the easy way out by granting Oklahoma the right to play Tucker, starting with the coming semester. True, no one wishes to hurt Tucker as an individual nor prohibit him from engaging in athletics during his entire college days at Norman, but the fact remains that the conference at one time felt so strongly on the matter that it incorporated into the by-laws a rule which strictly forbids migration of athletes. It did make one allowance, that of letting the "receiving-school" write a letter to the "deserted-school" and ask permission to let the athlete participate in athletics at his new alma mater. Oklahoma, however, ignored this allowance until it was forced to take action and then came crawling back to ask the forgiveness of the Manhattan school. If the Big Six conference is to exist with the least amount of bickering it should at least abide by its own rules. Above that, it should follow the rule (continued to page five) First Road Game In Title Defense Against Missouri With an impressive win over Oklahoma to its Big Six credit, the undefeated Kansas basketball team makes its road debut in defense of its conference crown against Missouri at Columbia Wednesday night. The Bengals have drubbed St. Louis University twice in early season games, but they fared only mediocrely in a west coast jaunt on which they played five games in a week. On that trip Missouri won from Gonzaga and California but lost to Idaho, Washington, and was squelched 62-23 by Washington State, runner-up in the NCAA basketball tournament last year in Kansas City. Two Sophomores Start Three veterans and two sophomores will compose Coach George Edwards' starting Tiger five. R.

In one of the biggest upsets of the current intramural season, Beta Theta Pi, which had previously lost two games, took a 26 to 20 win Friday evening from a Pi Kappa Alpha five that up to that time was undefeated and had outscored its opponents an average of 30 points a game. Inability to get started early enough was probably the big cause of the Pi K.A. defeat. The Beta's played serious, businesslike basketball from the starting whistle, and by the end of the first quarter had piled up a 14 to 1 lead over their startled foes. The trend continued in the sec- $ ^{4}$ ond quarter, and the score at halftime read 19 to 4. Pi K. A. rallied in the last half, sinking 16 points compared to the Beta's five for that period; but Jim Surface, Beta rebound man, kept his team in possession of the ball long enough to prevent the score being tied up. Beta scoring was evenly distributed, with every member of the squad adding at least one point to the total, Ransom Bennett was high man with 8 points. Joe Crawford netted 8 tallies for Pi K. A., in addition to playing an but his teammates couldn't find the basket often enough to keep up with Theta Tau scoring. Delta Tau Delta took a 30 to 23 win from a hapless Sigma Nu five that has yet to find victory on the court this season in Friday's only "A" team contest. In the "B" divisions, Beta "B" overpowered D.

Betty Reece and Barbara Koch played well for Gamma Phi Beta. Watkins Hall defeated Pi Beta Phi, 12-5. The scoring was distributed evenly among the Watkins Hall forwards with Althea Shuss (continued to page seven) 'Phog'Says Sooners 'Get By With Murder' Forrest C. "Phog" Allen dug deeper into the dirt of Oklahoma athletic commercialism and subsidization yesterday when he charged the Sooner school with "getting by with murder" in buying and selling college athletes. Already Allen has said that Jap Haskell, University of Oklahoma athletic director, is on the payroll of the Boston Red Sox baseball team as a talent scout, and that Lester Layton, Oklahoma baseball player, also is in the pay of the Red Sox. Now "Phog" accuses the Oklahoma coaching staff of paying the way of 10 Wichita North High athletes to Norman "supposedly to watch the Kansas State-Ok- What Is Haskell Doing? Allen proposes a "hearing which SPORTIN' AROUND ings passed down by special committees which have been assigned to the various branches of controversy. The eligibility committee made the first decision, which under normal circumstances is always heeded, but Oklahoma cried so loudly that the entire conference committee met to rescind this action and give Tucker the privilege of competing after this semester. It just doesn't make sense! LAYTON CLAIMS·HE'S NOT GUILTY Paralleling the Tucker situation is another case leveled at Oklahoma athletics by Allen. In his speech of Tuesday he claimed that Lester Layton, formed Wichita North High School basketball and baseball star, was being sent through school by money furnished by the Boston Red Sox, professional baseball team of the American League. A statement by Layton himself appeared Friday in The Oklahoma Daily in which he said, "If the Red Sox are paying me, they sure are behind on the payments. I'm not getting anything from them and I never have." This, however, is a typical statement coming from an athlete who has been charged with professionalism while playing as an amateur. Perhaps it is the truth but thre have been too many cases in the past where an athlete has denied his guilt and then later found to be culpable. Several reasons to doubt the validity of the story of Layton are present. One of these is found in Pete Lightner's column in The Wichita Eagle. "Of course Jap Haskell has in the past been connected directly or indirectly with Boston's Red Sox and made no bones about it. It was well known that when Herb Schreffler (all-conference basketball center in 1940 and the outstanding first baseman of the loop's baseball teams) went through O.U., the Red Sox had an "interest" in him. SOMETHING FUNNY IS GOING ON The same applies to Lester Layton, the former North High star who is quite a ball player as well as being a football and basketball ace. He isn't playing either of those sports at O.U. which friends say is part of an "educational agreement." With these remarks coming from the sports editor of Layton's home town, it seems reasonable enough to believe that there is a certain basis for them. Furthermore, the present baseball coach at Oklahoma is Jack Baer, former Sooner baseball and football star, who became the property of the Boston Red Sox upon graduation and played in the Red Sox chain of teams for several years. The thought that Baer might help in the search for baseball talent for the Red Sox with the latter in turn helping athletes through school by paying them advance salary or bonuses does not seem entirely foreign to the situation. This, with the evidence that director of athletics Jap Haskell is an acknowledged scout of the Boston team, leads a person to believe that there must be something to the situation. Perhaps "Phog" is right when he says, "It might be well for an investigation committee to audit the expenditures of certain schools in the Big Six since sums of over $10,000 are listed as employment for student athletes." We now have beautiful greeting cards for all occasions. Bell's Music Store would air some of the conference situations" and thinks that it "might be a healthy experience." "It might be well for an investigation committee to audit the expenditures of certain schools in the Big Six." He adds, "I know for sure that Haskell was in Wichita two weeks ago—and it wasn't just to visit his brother. I would like to know how Haskell gets away with such things in the face of Big Six regulations. There are plenty of things down at Oklahoma that need airing, and I would like a showdown." Allen maintained that his own sophomore basketball standout, Ray Evans, as well as Gerald Tucker, whose changing from Kansas State to Oklahoma has caused a Big Six eligibility furor, was dangled offers by Oklahoma. Haskell Admits Nothing Down Sooner way Haskell denied Allen's latest charges that Oklahoma was paying the expenses to the game "for their evaluation by Haskell" with a terse but all-inclusive "Hell no!" Haskell asserted "I wouldn't say I didn't know they were coming. But it's certainly news to me that we're paying their expenses. I don't know who's paying for their trip."

MARS AND LITERATURE By W. D. PADEN Assistant Professor of English A little more than one month ago our nation entered into a war which will in all probability last for a number of years. We may ask, what effect will the war have upon literature. There are several parts to the answer. Many people will read more than they usually do, in an attempt to escape from the problems and doubts of their daily lives. This will not affect literature very much, for the books that people read in such circumstances are, far more often than not, below the level of real literature. Publishers will probably provide a flood of novels that require a minimum of attention and afford a maximum of release. Some of these books will achieve sudden, wide, and transitory fame. At the same time and for the same reasons the theater will be given over to musical comedies and elaborate reviews; the movies will turn to slapstick force and self-confident heroism. It is difficult to imagine how the radio can become more maudlin than it is. If the war continues for two years, the heroes will gradually lose some of their inhibitions, the comedies will become broader, and chorus girls will wear less, and novels will follow the general trend. In other words, as tension grows, people will demand and receive facilities for greater release. Such changes cannot be prevented, and it is a waste of time to lament them. A comparatively small number of people will read old rather than new books. This will be true because most of the older books that are available are unfortunately of considerable literary value; that is, they induce within the reader a heightened perception of reality, the very thing that most people will not desire. Little literature will be published, for little will be written, during the war. This will be true no matter what course the war may take. Men and women will have unusual experiences that will shake them out of complacency and show them the world in new lights—sometimes joyous, sometimes terrible. But experience is not in itself a sufficient basis for literature. Only when experience has become meaningful—when it has become part of a pattern of values—is it the raw material of art. During a war, few people have time or opportunity to evaluate experience in the larger ways. The literature which has been affected by a war is always published after the war has ended. And of course a certain amount of literature is never written because young authors have been killed. In general, we may say that a modern war is very bad for literature. A century ago, when an army contained only a small proportion of the young men of a nation, and that proportion had been, except for commissioned officers, drawn from the uneducated classes, a war might scarcely touch the intellectual life. Nowadeys a major war extinguishes creation in the arts and very largely in the sciences. Literature, then, will become another of our post-war problems. Company Coming Private letters to Kansans from relatives and friends on the West Coast contain the information that they may be coming back to Kansas soon. The blackouts make them uncomfortable. The planes overhead might turn out to be Japanese. There is talk of evacuating the women and children from the coast cities. Kansas looks mighty good from those cities. Kansas folks are hospitable. They will need to be if the coast areas are attacked. Kansas will do her best to take care of all comers and any day company may arrive unannounced. Kansas is a dandy state to live in any time, but just now she is certainly tops. The center of the United States is within her borders. If there is safety anywhere, it is here. The California climate is fine this winter but it isn't attracting visitors. They say the roads are full of cars headed East.—From the Winfield Courier. English censors announce that literary kisses (X's) will be allowed at the bottom of letters so long as they are not in rows, as these can be used as code. As Sherman said, war is hell.

Rock Chalk Talk DEAN OSTRUM With a maximum of noise and a minimum of quiet, Miller hall's Joy Miller dashed frantically into her Reporting I class Friday morning fifteen minutes late. She slid to her seat and made a mad scramble for her text. "What's the matter, Miller," calmly inquired Professor Verdun Daste, "did you get up too late?" "I got up at seven," Joy panted. "Well that's nothing. I get up at eight and still make my eight-thirty Daste informed her. "I brush my teeth," Joy jibed. Delta Gamma's are on an 18-hour diet for the American Red Cross; With a hungry look in her eye, D. G. Sherry Johnson informs us that her sorority has dropped anchor on a new idea. The girls are going without desert with their meals for a period of eighteen days and giving the proceeds to the cause. Someone's bound to lose, but it's not likely to be the Red Cross. Last year's Sigma Chi pledge class Friday night gave a smack and sweater party up above the Blue Mill. And quite a party it was. According to reports, the ex-pledges let their hair down, had a nice quiet game of poker, danced, and played post office. Refreshments were furnished by Theta pledge Lila Jean Doughman and her date, Jack Beck. The two served double-bubble gum. A smacking good time was had by all. Kappa Sig's are doing it the easy way. Pledges Bob Held, Jerry Ward, and Lester Hunter, Friday night, serenaded Theta's by telephone. K. U. women who are never satisfied with a man they've been going with and continually search for something better can perhaps profit by this bit of verse: "The Perfect Man" There is a man who never Drinks, nor Smokes Chews, nor Swears, Who never Gambles, never Flirts And shuns all sinful snares. He's paralyzed. There is a man who never does Anything that is not right; His wife can tell just where he is At morning noon and night. He's dead. Red Cross Serves In War And Peace By JOY MILLER The modern Red Cross with its hospital units, refugee shelters and flood relief, is a far cry from the crude relief tendered wounded soldiers on the battlefield of Solferino in 1859, but the underlying principle of helping suffering humanity has never changed. The Red Cross was born on the plains of Lombardy when a young Swiss neutral, Henri Dunant, organized volunteer peasant women into a band of nurses for giving aid to the wounded at the battle of Solferino. The injured Austrians were cared for along with the victorious French and Italians, for to Dunant, "all men are brothers." In order to keep such scenes of carriage from being repeated, Dunant appealed to kings and leaders, advocating the training of neutral bands of people to be ready in times of war to offer their services to the armies. American Society Formed In 1863 an international conference met at Geneva to draw up plans for Duntal's society. The emblem was to be the reversed Swiss flag—red cross on a white ground. Within five years, 33 nations had organized Red Cross societies and were registered with the International Committee of the Red Cross in Geneva. In America, the Red Cross was organized by Clara Barton. She had worked uneasingly to relieve suffering on the battlefields in the Civil War, and had learned of the Red Cross while traveling in Europe to regain her health following the war. Miss Barton returned to the United States, and after a year's constant activity, saw the government ratify a treaty by which the American Red Cross was registered at Geneva. Aids Disaster Victims Soon after its organization, the American Red Cross found its help was needed for victims of Michigan forest fires. A year later it aided Mississippi and Ohio river flood sufferers. The Spanish-American War was an outstanding field of activity for the Red Cross. In 1897 John K. Elwell, a Douglas county, Kansas, man, became Miss Barton's secretary and helper. In the tidal floods in Galveston in 1900 and in the San Francisco fire and earthquake, the Red Cross turned the help of the whole country to the aid of the stricken cities. In 1905 President Roosevelt approved a charter which gave the American National Red Cross the backing of the United States government. The President of the United States is always the president of the American Red Cross. Activity in World War I The greatest test of the Red Cross came during World War I. It turned over to the government 45 base host-

All the rats were given tests for learning in a simple maze. The three groups were treated alike, the only difference being in the temperature of the rooms. Hereditary factors were controlled as nearly as possible. Moore found that the rats in the 90 degree room took longer to learn the same maze than did those in the 55 degree room. The average number of trials required for the rats to run the maze in the 90 degree room was 50; in the 72 degree room, 25; and in the 55 degree room, 15. An interesting observation made was that the rats in the hot room had long tails and big ears, while the others were shorter and rounder. Reproduction was found difficult in the hot room. Carl Packer, assistant instructor in psychology, will report to the fraternity on a reasoning experiment conducted with the same rats. He found that the rats in the cold room were able to solve the problem easier than those in the hot room. BETA'S TRIP (continued from page five) A last minute bucket by Byron Kern was responsible for a 31 to 29 win by the Phi Delt's over Kappa Eta Kappa. Vernon McKale was K. E. K. high score man in this hard-fought contest in which a Phi Delt halftime lead of 17 to 14 was closed up in the third quarter by a determined K. E. K. five. Chuck Hunter was the Phi Delt standout at the task of keeping rebounds in the hands of his team. Healy Tallies 31 Points A. T. O. defeated Pflugerville 40 to 29 in another battle that was close until the final few minutes. Johnny Pfitch led his own delegation in a scrappy resistance to A. T. O. scoring, only to have the Greeks pull away in the last quarter to end the game with an 11-point margin. Score at the end of the first half was A. T. O. 18, Pflugerville 16. Using only six men, the Phi Gam's demonstrated why they are always a strong contender for the intramural crown by handing Alpha Chi Sigma a 83 to 27 defeat. Alpha Chi Sigma's built up a 4 to 0 lead in the first few seconds of the contest, only to have Fiji Chain Healy toss in 16 points in the same period. Healy completed the game with a total of 31 points while Larry McSpadden and Wally Hinshaw each contributed 14 to the Fiji total. In another of Saturday's "A" team games, a D, U. five that was seeking revenge for the rout of the D. U. "B" delegation the evening before overcame A.K.Psi 24-21. Jim Russell, D.U. guard, was high man with 12 counters, while Clark Henry looked good as a rebound man. Alpha Chi Sigma's, led by the inspired game of George Wagner, never quit scrapping and garnered a total of 27 points. D. U. "A's" Gain Revenge Some 30 members of the staff of New York's City college have been ousted following a legislative inquiry into Communist activities. Teke "B" took a 14 to 8 win from A. T. O. "B" in a ragged and low-scoring contest, and Delta Tau Deltal "B" won from A. K Psi "B" 25 to 11 in Saturday's games. Teke "C" forfeited to Beta "C" in the only scheduled sixth division contest. WOMEN'S INTRAMURALS- (continued from page five) and Eileen Griffiths handling the ball most effectively. Marty Shar tel made all five points for the Pi Phi's as Watkins proved to be the stronger of the two teams. IWW ran up a score of 26 points to defeat Miller Hall by 11 points. The final score was IWW 26 Miller 15. The score was close at the half but during the second half Lavone Jacobson made eight points to put the IWW team in the lead. Frances Davison played an outstanding game in guard position. Mary Burnside and Ruth Green were the outstanding players on the Miller Hall team. Corbin Hall almost doubled the score on the Delta Gamma's by winning 32-17. Mildred Wells did most of the scoring for Corbin with the able assistance of Marguerite Demint and June Cochran. Mary Hogan led the Delta Gam team which put up some stiff competition. Geological Survey Publishes Bulletin On Ground-Water Latest of the regular bulletins published by the Kansas Geological Survey is "Geology and Ground-Water Resources of Stanton County, Kansas," by Bruce F. Latta. Jive and Joy Reign as "Birth of the Blues" Opens at the Jayhawker The report is the result of an extensive study considering the importance of ground-water as one of the principal natural resources needed for the development of Western Kansas. Crowded with some of Hollywood's best entertainers, the cast of "Birth of the Blues" is lighted up with the names of Bing Crosby, Mary Martin, Brian Donlevly, Carolyn Lee, Jack Teagarden and Rochester. Each gives a grand performance. Song after song, laugh after laugh is presented with hardly a let-up all through the picture. The melody just pours forth in a joyous, delightful stream with fifteen songs in all pitched out, which is a record for film musical numbers by the way. The Crosby and Martin larynxes seemed to be inspired for the occasion. The happiest news to report on the local film front at this moment is that "Birth of the Blues" opens at the Jayhawker today, and that it is one of the finest, most exhilarating treasures of jazz music and laughs ever to hit the screen. "Birth of the Blues" goes back to the days when pioneering white folks first began playing the jazz that Negroes invented. The story takes us to the New Orleans of the early 1900's presenting Bing Crosby as a blues-happy clarinetist who wants to organize the hottest band in the Southland. From there on out it's a hilarious group of events that will keep you in stitches and prove to be the entertainment you have been waiting for. It is definitely a 'must see' picture. Adv.

Through the International Red Cross Committee at Geneva, the Red Cross societies of the Allies sent packages of food and clothing to prisoners in 72 camps of the enemy countries. Countries at war with the Allies could do likewise for their men imprisoned in France and elsewhere. After the Armistice the Red Cross helped wounded and gassed soldiers come home, and then cared for them in veterans' hospitals. Supported by voluntary contributions, the League is governed by its representatives through meetings of its board of governors, held every two years at Paris headquarters. It acts as a clearing-house of information for member societies and has stimulated the formation of new Red Cross societies and junior sections. New Organization Formed The League was organized by Henry P. Davison, who was in charge of the American society during the war. He advocated a great world-wide organization to carry on in peace-time "a program of extended work in the general interests of humanity." Within one year there were 31 member societies. There are now 61. From this war experience grew a new international organization—the League of Red Cross Societies. During the war the societies had aided refugees, war widows, orphans and the victims of want and disease. At the end of the war, those needs continued. The Red Cross could not leave an unfinished task. Figures in 1937 show that more than 4,500,000 men and women and more than 8,500,000 children belong to the American National Red Cross. Red Cross public health nurses help the sick, give lessons on health, first aid, care of the sick, hygiene, and child care. In Peace as In War During the year the Red Cross is called upon to aid in disasters brought by flood, drought, storm, fire. Thousands of new garments are made annually by volunteer workers, and recreation rooms for children and adults are conducted. So in peace—and now again in war—the Red Cross carries on its cause, the relief of suffering humanity. SIX STUDENTS--is something we all seek to attain.

Malott as conservator of materials and services important to national defense, for the University of Kansas. One of the chief functions will be a co-operative campaign for the conservation of waste paper, with NEDY WOODS T. C. RYTHER the program being conducted under the Waste Paper Conservation committee of which Frank Sullivan is state chairman. Rythen will also have charge of conservation of light, heat, and power on the campus. In the University's campaign to conserve resources and materials important to national defense, every employee and student of the University is asked to comply, both in recommending ways and means of conservation and in helping to carry out the details of the program. Listed are some of the ways to save suggested by Ryther. 1.

The student drive is still in progress with faculty, Sachem, and Mortar Board members scheduled to speak at all organized and semi-organized houses this week on the subject of Red Cross needs. Twin Red Cross Drives Advance Toward Goal The bill provides that there be a calendar manager who will have complete charge of designing, financing and promoting the publication each year, subject to the approval of the Council. The manager would receive the profits from the sale of the No Scotch Varsity Tomorrow The faculty and University employee Red Cross drive falls but $18 short of the $800 goal, Prof. E. C. Buehler, chairman of the drive, reported today. Boxes placed inside the library entrance and in the rotunda of Frank Strong hall provide an opportunity for independent students to contribute to this special war relief Red Cross drive. There will be no Scotch Varsity in the Memorial Union ballroom tomorrow night, Keith Spalding, chairman of the Student Union Activities board announced today. "The goal has been reached with over a hundred dollars to spare," Buehler said, "if we may count in our drive the money faculty members contributed to the Lawrence drive as a result of city soliciting."

He is guaranteed a salary of $10 by the M.S.C. All amounts over $25 derived from the sale of the calendars will automatically go into a University calendar fund which will be maintained from year to year to cover possible deficits on subsequent issues. The only duty of the calendar board will be to appoint the manager. The latter must submit a budget to the MSC each year for approval before any contracts are let, and after publication he must make a report to the Council of the total receipts and expenditures. The manager, who must be a male student of the University, will be chosen each spring for the succeeding year by a University Calendar board. This board is to be appointed by the Men's Student Council, and will consist of three members of the Council, chairman-of the Statewide Activities Commission or his representative and one faculty member. Board to Pick Manager The calendar for 1942 was financed by the University Reserve fund, on condition that it not be asked to do it again. The price was 15 cents.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE THREE TUESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1942 Press Agents Alum Council Close Meet After three days of dinners, speeches, and discussions at which 40 schools were represented, the American College Publicity association and the American Alumni council closed their joint meeting here this afternoon. The total number of representatives at the annual session was 100. Raymond W. Derr, publicity director at Kansas Wesleyan University, directed the meetings of the American College Publicity association, and Miss Ann Sorency, Stephens College alumnae secretary took charge of the American Alumni council. Today's activities began this morning with a meeting of the publicity directors' clinic which was conducted by Paul O. Ridings of Midland College. The theme of this meeting was "What We Want from Publicity Directors." Speakers included Leonard McCalla, Jr., of The Anderson Countian at Garnett, and E. Lawson May of The Hutchinson News-Herald. Sports Session Following a discussion, question, and answer period, a sports session was held. Capt. John Pirkalla of the Wentworth Military Academy conducted the meeting on "Our Sports Problems." Speakers discussing the subject were Paul O. Ridings of Midland College and Horace Mason, athletics publicity director of the University of Kansas Jack Young of the University of Missouri led a discussion at the end of this session including talks on "Bowl Publicity" by Young and J. Willard Ridings of the Texas Christian University. At noon the representatives met in the Memorial Union for a luncheon at which George Phillips of the Kansas State Teachers College of Emporia was toastmaster. "Dead Men Tell No Tales" was the title of the speech given by David MacFarlane, dean of men at the Kansas State Teachers College of Emporia. Business sessions of the two groups were held this afternoon after the luncheon. Kingsley W. Given, director of public relations at Park College, was elected director of the American College Publicity association, and Fred Ellsworth of the University of Kansas was elected director of the American Alumni council. Fred Ellsworth Elected The concluding meeting of the three day session was a photography and publications session. Willis R. Jones of William Woods College presided. Bert Brand, manager of the Kansas City office of the Acme Newspictures spoke on "Give Us the Pictures We Want" and Charles Mangan of Stephens College talked on "Photography for Colleges." Talks on Publications Bill DeVreindt, Capital Engraving Co., of Lincoln, gave the final speech on "College Publications Problems." Following these talks Vernon Johnson of Bethany College led a discussion period. General sessions and a dinner were held Sunday night at the Memorial Union building. Yesterday's meetings included a morning session under the theme of "Interpreting Education for the Future of Democracy." A luncheon was held following an informal panel discussion by college presidents. The theme of the afternoon alumni session was "Fundamentals of an Alumni Organization." Quota Set At Fifty For C.P.T. An unofficial civilian Pilot Training quota for next semester was received today from Washington by Prof. E. E. Brush, chairman of the University program, calling for 30 secondary enrollees and 20 secondary student pilots. Students interested in the training should enroll at once, said Professor Brush. Those who have already signed up began taking physical examinations today. Brush said he expected all preliminary preparations to be completed in time for the program to get under way with the beginning of next semester's class work. No date deadline on enrollment has been received yet. Brewster Speaks On Kansas Resources Dr. Ray Q. Brewster, chairman of the University chemistry department, spoke at the annual Chamber of Commerce membership luncheon at 12:20 o'clock this afternoon in the Eldridge hotel. With "The Utilization of Kansas Resources in the Present Emergency" as his subject, Doctor Brewster presented ideas on converting Kansas raw materials into manufactured products. Discussion took place on the possibility of developing manufacturing plants in Lawrence to use raw materials from over the state. Doctor Brewster was a research chemist for the U. S. Public health service during World War I. Enrollment To Be Short and Snappy Students can expect to set a new speed record going through the enrollment line next semester if enrollment procedure is carefully followed. This is the way it should work: In the meeting with the adviser, an enrollment card will be filled out, but the adviser will not sign the card. If all of this is done correctly, actual enrollment should not take more than ten minutes per student for all that will be necessary will be to get the adviser's signature and go through the bull-pen. Beginning Thursday, faculty advisers will be in their offices to meet and advise students concerning the courses to be taken. Office hours of the advisers will be posted on the bulletin board opposite the College office. J. Willard Ridings, national president of the American College Publicity association from Texas Christian University, addressed the group at a dinner meeting last night on the subject, "It's the Publicity Director's Job." Irene Peabody Sings Favorites The current series of Fine Arts faculty recitals was continued last night in the auditorium of Frank Strong hall by Irene Peabody, associate professor of voice, in a program which alternated old favorites with novelties. Her first group was from the classical Italian repertoire: "Lungi Dal Caro Bene," Paisiello's "Nel Cor Piu,' and the great Recitative and Air from Gluck's "Orpheus," wherein Orpheus lamentes the death of his wife, Euridice. The second group came from Russian composers: Gliere, Gretchaninoff, Arensky, Rachmaninoff, Tchaikowski, Moussorgsky. Notable were two Arensky songs, "Revery" and "Deep Hidden in My Heart." Next came a group from the Scandinavian headed by two Swedish songs in their Lawrence premiere, Rangstrom's "Serenade" and "Vingar I Natten." Sung in Swedish by Miss Peabody, they appealed instantly to the audience. A Swedish folk son, "The Dove and the Lily," was followed by five miniature masterpieces of Grieg. The last group moved into the realm of "effective" songs—Strickland's "My Lover Is a Fisherman," Buzzi-Peciaa "Under the Greenwood Tree," Hageman's "Do Not Go My Love," and Levitzki's "Ah Thou Beloved One." Winifred Hill accompanied at the piano. Glassmire Enlists In Marine Corps Haven Glassmire, junior engineer, Lawrence, has enlisted in the United States Maritime Commission. He left Lawrence Tuesday for St. Louis where he took his physical examination and was accepted by the Marines. He is now in training school at Hoffman Island, N. Y. Hungerford Will Attend Meet Hungerford Will Attend Meet Prof. H. B. Hungerford will attend a meeting of the State Entomological commission at Topeka tomorrow. K.U. Roundtable Will Discuss War Psychology "Psychology in the Emergency' will be discussed tomorrow night from 9:30 to 10 over the University of Kansas roundtable in a series dealing with the theme "America in Crisis." Speakers will be Dr. Earl Menninger of Topeka, Prof. J. F. Brown chairman, Prof. R. H. Wheeler, and Prof. Byron Sarvis of the department of psychology. Bloch Confined to Home; May Be Out Next Semester Albert Bloch, professor of drawing and painting, is still confined to his home, 1015 Alabama, where he has been ill since the Christmas holidays. His condition was slightly better today. Bloch hopes to be able to return to his classes the second semester, but whether or not his condition will permit is questionable.

It's always been rumored about that the best way to start off the week was with a smile. Therefore, this column goes on record as an aid to national defense morale by providing the laugh of the week to you basketball followers of the Big Six. Following the Cornhusker victory over Kansas State Tuesday night Ad Lewandowski, coach of the Nebraska squad, remarked "We had some mighty good moments and some poor ones Tuesday against Kansas State but I think we have the stuff to bring back a conference championship." A DEFERRED DECISION For a one-man team such as Nebraska has this year it seems to be a mighty optimistic statement. Sid Held, all-conference guard, is the bell-cow of the attack and if he isn't ringing the baskets up for N.U., the Cornhuskers might just as well stay out in the pasture. After last night's victory over Missouri it would be interesting to know what Lewandowski predicts for his charges now. He might even have aspects of reaching the N.C.A.A. play-offs in Kansas City. Perhaps it would be best for Cornhusker fans not to get too excited about their coach's statements until after they play Kansas this Saturday. If the Jayhawkers go down in defeat, then this column will jump on the Nebraska band-wagon and even boom Sid Held for All-American. A SCOOP ON RIPLEY Bob Ripley's "Believe It or Not" column generally comes through with most of the scoops in the world of oddities but today this column has a scoop on "Believe It or Not" itself. Recently Ripley called Ashley Elbl, basketball coach at Wyandotte High School, asking him to verify the score of the game between Central High School and the Rainbow Athletic Club of Kansas City, Kan., in 1923. The score was 234 to 2 and was the biggest margin of victory ever recorded in a basketball game. The winner was Central, the present Wyandotte, which went ahead that year to win the national championship at Chicago. The team was undefeated during the season. On that Central team were three players who later performed at Lawrence for the Jayhawkers. They were Harold Zuber, now a prominent doctor in Kansas City, Mo.; Harold Schmidt, present traffic manager for Phillips 66 in Bartlesville; and Herb Proudfit, working at the present time in Kansas City, Kan. During the game in question Schmidt scored 98 points. While attending the University he was a member of Phi Delta Theta and captain of "Phog" Allen's Missouri Valley championship squad of 1927. His first connection with Phillips 66 was when he became coach of their A.A.U. basketball squad of all-Americans, just prior to Chuck Hyatt's present reign as mentor of that aggregation. Ripley plans to run a display column on the game in the near future for syndicate distribution throughout the United States. He will emphasize the margin of victory and also Schmidt's scoring record. GRAHAM MIGHT TAKE SOME STARS Worry and Smiles Dept.: "Phog" Allen needn't worry too seriously about the 10 Wichita High School North athletes who attended the Oklahoma-Kansas State basketball game in Norman Saturday night. It seems that the same source which reported to Allen that the North boys were "heading South" had previously reported 17 Wichita North lads as almost enrollees at Wichita U. The only drawback is that Wichita must hire "Monk" Edwards, present Wichita North football coach, as football coach of the Municipal University before the North boys guarantee their enrollment at W.U. At the present time, however, Ralph Graham, former all Big Six star full back from Kansas State and present backfield coach under Alvin "Bo" McMillin at Indiana University, is the leading candidate for the head coaching job at Wichita to succeed Al Gebert, who was deposed after one bad season following 11 good ones. If Graham does get the job it will mean worry for Gwinn Henry. Graham is one of the better proselytizing coaches, especially when it comes to taking boys from his home state. If Wichita decides to hire him he should prove a big drawing power and further scatter the football talent of Kansas between the 20 colleges of the state, besides leaving a few of the better boys who seem to always "prefer" an out-of-state school to make their continental wanderings. A DOC FIXES IT Odds and ends: Leo Headrick, former forward at Wyandotte and teammate of Ray Evans and Bill Brill on the team which lost to Winfield in the state basketball finals in 1940, is now playing for the Blue Devils of Kansas City, Kan. Junior College. Headrick played as a freshman at Kansas State last year. Bill Hahn, former roommate of Bob Johnson during the latter's freshman year on the Hill, made the all-star team of the Naismith League in Kansas City for the second straight year. Wouldn't he look good in the back court with Evans or Sollenberger on "Phog's" team this year. . . . If Gwinn Henry starts to worry about Ralph Graham grabbing some of the star football players of the state if he gets Wichita's job then he can cross off one more of his worries—the Missouri football game next fall. This is on the authority of Dr. H. P. Hungate of the Naval Reserve office in Kansas City. The latter passed five members of the Tiger football team into the Naval Reserve last week but he placed some stipulations upon them. To Mike Fitzgerald, star Bengal guard, he said, "T'll pass you on just one condition. That is, you let K.U. score at least two touchdowns through your position next fall and furthermore that you promise you won't let your team win by more than two touchdowns." It sounds good now but I wonder if Fitzgerald will remember it next year when the Jayhawkers invade Columbia. Intramural Standings Division I ★★ Won Lost Per.

By BILL PORTER A fighting Sig Ep five, after trailing 7 to 14 at the half, staged a sensational comeback to win 22 to 21 over a surprised Delta Tau Delta team in last evening's feature intramural basketball contest. Delta Tau's sparked by Carl Bomholt, forward, took advantage of superior height to pile up an early lead and succeeded in doubling their opponent's score by the end of the first half. Late in the third quarter, however, the Sig Ep's began to close on the lead, and went into the : Sigma Chi overcame T.K.E. 35 to 21 in the other Monday "A"队 battle. The game was fast but ragged all the way, and scoring was fairly even for the first half. But the Sigma Chis who led 15 to 10 Delt's tried to stall, but the scrappy Sig Ep defense took possession of the ball and finally tossed it to Don Widner who put in a setup for the winning points. Widner chalked up a total of 13 tallies for his team in this fast and cleanly-played game in which only three fouls were called. Newman III failed to get started soon enough in their game last night, and dropped a 23 to 19 count to John Moore Co-op. Standout for the John Moore squad, which played a good defensive game, was Jim Roderick, forward, who tossed in 13 points.

D. U. standout was guard Bill Wintermote, who scored 7 of his team's 11 points in addition to playing a hard game at his defense position. Phi Delt's led 22 to 4 at the half.

Under normal conditions the Jayhawkers probably would not experience any trouble but a game in Columbia is not played under normal conditions. Twice in the past three years the Tigers have trampled the Jayhawkers at Columbia and only last year, when the Bengals had a cellar-dwelling club, were the Jayhawks able to ride the Wabash home with a victorious smile. This year the Tigers were not supposed to have a strong crew. From their record thus far it would bear out this fact. But that doesn't seem to be what Coach "Phog" Allen bases his opinions upon. After returning from Ames, Iowa, Sunday morning "Phog" said, "I'm scared to death. Missouri is potent and don't let anyone tell you differently. Evans and Mills are two of the cleverest guards I've ever seen and this Ross Burns is a real power at center when he's going good." Lost on Freethrows But "Phog" thought more of George Edwards' team than that. "At the first of the season I said they'd beat someone," he continued, "and I'm more sure of it than ever after watching them play. They outplayed Iowa State most of the way. Iowa State did the same thing that we did against Denver. They tried to play up to the crowd's expectation of them and failed. Whenever they played naturally they went to town." Last night the Missourians played another close game but were edged out by Nebraska, 51 to 46. Both teams scored 20 field goals and the Cornhuskers margin of victory rested in their completion of free throws. The loss last night made the second conference loss in a row, having lost to Iowa State 34 to 25 Saturday night. Before these two games the Tigers had won four out of seven games. Their three losses were sustained on their western road trip during the Christmas holidays. Allen Has Problem Two of their losses were to Washington State College and the University of Washington which shows no reflection upon the playing ability of the Bengals. Those two teams are rated as the favorites to win the northern division of the Pacific Coast conference. Kansas on the other hand has played only three games. Denver and Bethel were defeated before Christmas in non-conference games and Bruce Drake's "Tuckerless" Oklahoma Sooners were ridden under by a 54 to 32 count. The biggest problem facing Allen at the present time is what men he should take to Missouri and of those ten, what five should he start. Last night in scrimmage the freshmen used Missouri plays and attempted to crack the varsity defense. Only occasionally were they able to penetrate the back line to score a goal. 7-all After 10 Minutes After this short work-out, Allen selected two teams and had them scrimmage for ten minutes. At the end of that time, the score was tied at seven-all, further emphasizing the equality of ability among the first ten players on the varsity squad. Playing for the whites last night were Ray Evans and Marvin Sollenberger at guards, Johnny Buescher at quarter-back, and Charlie Black and Vance Hall at forwards. This is the same team that started against Oklahoma except Hall has replaced Ralph Miller. For the Reds Miller was quarterback, Charlie Walker and T. P. Hunter were guards, and Jack Ballard and Don Ettinger at forwards. Scoring for the two teams was evenly divided with Evans and Hunter leading their teams with a field goal and a free throw each. Ballard and Walker sank goals for the Reds and Sollenberger got one long goal and Hall made two free throws for the Whites. Gardner Likes O.U.; How About Us, Jack? Jack Gardner, Kansas State's young basketball coach, rates the 1941-42 Oklahoma basketball team stronger than last year's edition even without Gerald Tucker, much publicized sophomore sensation recently ruled ineligible until the second semester by Big Six conference officials. "Oklahoma has more speed than a year ago," the K-State mentor commented. "They have fine players in Paul Heap, six-foot-four center, A.D. "Ug" Roberts and Richard Reich." is the? "Oklahoma has more speed mentor commented. "They has six-foot-four center, A.D. "Ug" Gardner said Roberts is the first man Kansas State has met all season whom George Mendenhall, fast K-State guard, has been unable to handle. "Even without Tucker, Oklahoma is capable of giving any team in the Gardner commented. The red-hot Sooners hit 19 out of 40 shots, or 47.5 per cent, as they defeated Kansas State, 47 to 40, at Norman. The Wildcats connected on 17 of 68 attempts for 25 per cent, and Gardner ordered inten- (continued to page eighth) 'Phog' Wants Center Jump In Basketball To Return In his article, "Rotate the Center Jump," appearing in the February issue of "Esquire," Forrest C. Allen, Kansas basketball coach and a member of the National Basketball Rules Committee proposes to restore the center jump in basketball on a rotation basis. "Phog" says, "It (basketball) scholastic and intercollegiate s are showing which may eats out its heart." He avers that the elimination of the center jump has quickened the game 30 to 40 per cent. Allen points out that this acceleration of the game is injurious to the heart, causing high blood pressure and heart strain, according to doctors research. In doing away with the center jump, which gave the players a few seconds rest after each goal, he says that "Everything except the welfare of the players themselves was considered it seems." One object in discarding the center jump, "Phog' writes, is to do away with "tall mezzanine-peeping goon centers" who dominate the game by controlling the tip on the center-jump. It is now evident, Allen believes, that the tall center does not dominate play by tip-offs but under the basket on tip-ins or recoveries. Raising the goal from 10 to 12 feet will minimize the tall player's potency under the basket, "Phog" claims. To restore the center jump on an equal basis, Allen proposes to let each member of the team take his turn at the center circle—to let each of the quintet jump according to a given order, "ust as the batting order is handled in baseball." Huskers Take Conference Lead Led by big Sid Held, all-Big Six conference center, the Nebraska Cornhuskers rang up their second conference victory last night with the Missouri Tigers on the losing end, 51 to 45. Three thousand spectators watched the Huskers take the Big Six lead as they came from behind at Lincoln after the Tigers led at the half, 21 to 17. Huskers Take Conference Lead MFF Held paced his teammates with 16 points while forward Don Harvey led the Bengals with 13 points. Held also led the attack against the Kansas State Wildcats last week with 13 points. It was the second conference loss for Missouri, having lost to Iowa State Saturday night, 34 to 25. WRECKER SERVICE In that game the Cyclones got off to a slow start by not scoring for the first seven minutes. They came back to tie the score at 14-all by halftime and with Al Budolfson and Carol Schneider leading the last half attack, the Tigers were unable to keep up.

Phone 954 PAGE SIX UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS TUESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1942 The KANSAN Comments... Marathon Charity During this semester, University faculty and students have contributed to the Jayhawk shelter, tossed pennies into a net for Alpha Phi Omega, given time and money to any number of other deserving charities, and are now busy in a campaign for the Red Cross. With wartime conditions as they are, the need for more charity work will no doubt increase in the future. The problem of soliciting funds has always been a large one, both for the solicitors and the solicited. The organizations have usually set a certain amount as a goal in their drives, but could not start any action until the actual funds were obtained. Students and faculty members, like anyone else, have at times been financially embarrassed when called upon to contribute. Downotwn merchants have solved the problem of charity collections with a Community Chest, to which each person contributes as much as he can afford, and this money is allocated to various charity organizations which would ordinarily have to rely upon individual solicitation. This would enable the charities to plan their work ahead of time, as they would know just how they stood financially, and would enable students and faculty to make a single contribution instead of having to face a number of solicitations and occasional embarrassment. Our student councils might do well to look into this problem. While in the economic frame of mind, we might also consider the problem of pestiferous salesmen who inflict themselves upon faculty members during office hours and deliver unending orations on the merits of certain insurance policies, magazines, etc. If salesmen of only reputable firms were forced to pay a fee for the privilege of operating on the campus, they might develop a higher regard for the value of a teacher's time, and the money raised through the licensing could be used for student activities.-D.C.W. Top sergeants will be inclined to be gentle with orders directed at Buck Private Joe Louis, we feel. Not startling is the intelligence that students prefer a three-year college course. The St. Louis Globe-Democrat has an idea: "Every housewife should register. Certainly. Anything but indifference." Women in Uniform Republican Representative Edith Nourse Rogers, former World War I nurse, has proposed a bill in the House calling for the voluntary enlistment of women between the ages of 21 and 45. Working on the theory that there are certain jobs, even in the Army that women can do more capably, than men, its backers are particularly concerned with the civilian defense program and the idea of leaving more men free to do the things required of them in our "all out" war program. The proposal is at least worthy of some consideration. Secretary of War Stimson believes that the most vital use of women in the army would be the formation of a separate aircraft-warning section to make possible organized discipline. There are two things which seem to be particularly unreasonable about the calling of women to army service—general drafting of women and the setting up of a special division in the Army. Frequently a volunteer unit does not attain as high a degree of competence as does a drafted group. Yet, drafting of women would be as complicated and difficult a task as the Government could possibly undertake. It seems a much more nearly sane plan to bring the women into the Army on a salaried basis, selected for service by a system similar to the Civil Service and for a predetermined length of tenure. Under this plan, women would be serving merely in the capacity of civilians working for the Army or Navy. There would be far greater competence attained by this method, and the cost of obtaining and keeping women on the job would be much less. The women of the United States are eager to do their share in the war program. But American women and Congress should consider carefully just what the shares and duties of women are in war time. And then there were those benighted early days, when we used to joke about making out income tax returns.

Rock Chalk Talk DEAN OSTRUM Heard in passing through the shack this morning (Theta Joan Fronkier speaking): "You know what, I dreamed of drinking champagne all last night and this morning I just feel terrible. I think I've got a hangover!" Merely a mental case having a mental morning after. That low-flying U.S. army airplane over the Hill Saturday afternoon was dive bombing at the Chi Omega house, we're told. Lt. Bob Turk, brother of pledge Christine Turk, was piloting the ship. Worried Chi O's complain, insisting that their sorority house is no military objective. Although it's plenty nerve-wracking, Christine still feels it's kind of nice having her brother drop in on her like that. Last week Evelyn Hodgson, Miller hall, phoned a downtown drug store and asked them to deliver three or four packages of hair pins. Hours passed, days passed, and still the hair pins never came. "Where are my hair pins?" she demanded. The other night Evelyn got tired of waiting. She phoned the drug store again. "Why, we sent them days ago," the clerk answered. "To Miller hall?" Evelyn continued. "Oh," the confused clerk coughed, "we sent them to Marvin hall!" Alpha Delta Pi pledges pulled one over on active Mary Arden Ewing last night when her boy friend, Sig Ep Joe Walter, called for her at the sorority house. The girls met Joe at the door, crowded around him, and hurried him out of the house and off to a show. Before going into the movie, they stopped by the telegraph office and sent the following telegram to the Sig Eps: "Found one mutilated Sigma Phi Epsilon by thirteen pledges of Alpha Delta Pi—stop. He does us more good than he does you but if you want him back contact us—stop—signed, the illustrious pledge class of Alpha Delta Pi." That's one way of getting out of study hall on a week day ni Latest from the Phi Psi house is that Frank "Baldy" Bolin is knitting a lovely rose-colored afghan. Frank became interested in the project and started it with the help of Mary Louis Goddard Saturady morning in Music Appreciation class. Mary Louis was knitting along with her gadget called a "weave it" and Baldy began to ask questions. Soon he had the "weave it" and was learning the stitch. One thing led to another, and now he's working on an afghan. this essential commodity. However, the all-important fact remains, guayule rubber can be produced right here, under the eagle eye of Uncle Sam. His motto—"Remember to purl harder." A native of Mexico, the guayuage plant has been grown successfully in California's Salinas valley. In some parts of California and Texas the climate is so favorable that the plant grows wild. Salinas valley farmers are already experienced in the culture of the plant, and probably other regions with the right conditions of aridity—neither too much nor too little, for the little herb is squeamish about such things if it is to produce rubber—could cultivate guayuule. Guayule May Relieve Rubber Shortage In U.S. Known to Aztecs Guayule is a shrub which produces—if you can stand the shock—rubber. Being a rather fastidious little plant, it drives a hard bargain, and refuses to turn out the hydrocarbon, rubber, at the same economical rate at which India and the East Indies formerly furnished us $ ^{ \textcircled{1}}$ Guayule is no new-fangled baby in the rubber world. Used by the Aztecs for making footballs, it has long been a source of rubber for Mexican natives. As the nation settles down to a prolonged hangover from nights sleepless with rubber worries, it can thank its 48 lucky stars that under the light of two of them, California and Texas, farmers are cultivating the guayule plant. Technically, guayule is a shrubby carduaceous herb of northern Mexico, christened by some connoisseur of shrubby carduaceous herbs, "Parthenium argentatum." Its Spanish name, "quaholli," means literally, "ball plant," harking back to when the Aztecs spent long Mexican afternoons kicking the guayule around. Guayule growing is now at low ebb in this country because this rubber has cost more in recent years than the rubber from the East Indies. At present, writes a California authority, it could not be produced under the price ceiling fixed by Congress unless the government made up the difference. U. S. to Make Rubber From Oil Within 18 months factories will be built under the new government plan which will produce 400,000 tons of synthetic rubber annually by the butadiene process, which uses crude oil as a base. Factories with a capacity of 90,000 tons annually are already in operation or under construction. When synthetic production is in full sway, U. S. rubber worries will fade, although they will not be altogether forgotten. In 1941 this country used 750.000 tons of rubber. As the war was on, more and more rubber will be needed for military purposes. Civilian needs will tend to be pushed out of the picture unless the rubber supply is increased. A California newspaper believes that cultivation of greater quantities of guayule might give the sit- (continued to page seven) 13, 1942 TUESDAY; JANUARY 13, 1942 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE SEVEN Fronkier ast night moon was brother of military it's kind store and used,days ug store viving last sorority fried him and sent of Alpha vant him delta Pi." nitting a help of it" and earning han. from lucky Texas, and the drives , rub- e East at low use this recent in the m' writes a did not e ceil-ness the differ- om Oil es will over- ven-ree 400,- er an- -process, base. of 90,- adly in induction. is in es will be al- 1750. _ur goes be s.

DERR Oliver Pilat and Jo Ranson, two New York newspapermen have done their country a service by recording the quaint and illuminating history of America's biggest pleasure resort, held by some, too, to be America's biggest sinkhole of iniquity. In their book, Sodom by the Sea, an affectionate history of Coney Island, the authors select, from among the thousands of incidents, enough stories and happenings about the world-famous place to fill more than 300 pages of highly entertaining reading. From the first, though nothing more harmful than food—and some drink—was served to the aristocrats who avoided the long-drawn-out church services by driving their carriages on Sunday along the private road that led to the hotel, the island was denounced as wicked by both church-goers and moralists. the possibilities of the sandy stretch, and he built the first hotel, intending it for an exclusive place. The story of Coney Island began in 1830, when pirate silver brought the first real crowd. Thomas Stillwell was the first to see The authors sift the stack of historical tales and exploits about Coney Island, and select material enough for orderly chapters dealing first with the political era, when groups found "Sodom" an excellent place for their drinking and fighting parties; then, successively, they tell of outlaws, the race track crowd, such pugilists as James J. Corbett, John L. Sullivan, Bob Fitzsimmons, and Lim Jeffries; and the customary concept of Coney Island, the shows and entertainment areas. Although the entire book is good reading, some of the spectacles described in the chapter dealing with entertainment probably are the author's best. Here is described the lyrics and honky-tonks, the petty grafting in the music and dance halls, where patrons entered, not only at the risk of their pursues, but of their lives. Girls, especially, who have been through "The Bug House," "The House of Fun," or a carnival attraction of similar title, will have considerable sympathy and interest as they read about the participants at the "Insanitarium," as the oldest continuously operated show in the amusement park is called. Previously it had been named the "Blowhole Theater." The authors trace, in the same chapter, many of the other interesting exhibits and attractions, including the Lilliputian village, a complete town, sealed and built to the size of 300 midgets. Everything was in precise proportion, from the theater to furniture in the homes. Readers will find the chapter on side shows interesting, too. It tells the story of Jolly Irene, who weighed 689 pounds; Jane Darnell, known as Madam Olga, the bearded lady, who really was a lady, had been married four times, and boasted a 13-inch beard; the Blue Man, who kept himself that way by taking silver nitrate; and dozens of other freaks who made Coney Island their headquarters from time to time. Here were also to be found several pairs of "Siamese" twins, the Wild Man of Borneo who spoke to a society matron, and who, in turn, recognized him as the man who cleaned their furnace; and others, reviewed with gusto. Most readers will enjoy the account of the baby incubators, which had been operated by Dr. Martin Arthur Courney for more than 40 years, and who, during that time, has seen 6,500 of the 8,000 premature babies, some weighing as little as a pound and a half, many less than two pounds, grow and live, after having been cared for there. The writers are said to have gathered much of the material from personal experience. In doing so, they have preserved the aura of romance which hangs over the name of Coney Island, for Coney Island is a typically American as the hot dog it helped to make famous. The book is a storehouse of rich and varied material. It is lavish with anecdote, as colorful, as racy and as entertaining as the Island itself must be. It is a book not to be laid down until completed.

"B" won from Carruth "B" 21 to 14 in a rough and tumble fray during which official Al Protiva had to caution both squads about their court manners. Every member of the Carruth squad scored in this battle, while Pi K. A. Don Shreve chalked up 14 points to be high man for the game. "Sunshine and studying for finals doesn't mix—so why study for the finals?" Such a thought is a happy one, but, sadly illogical. The scoring team of Jim Brown and "Little Jack" Horner swept Phi Psi "B" to a 41 to 8 win over Acacia "B" as the two gentlemen aforementioned put in 26 points between them. Superior Phi Psi athletic material was responsible for the win, although Acacia's fought to the last minute. Phi Psi's were guilty of only two fouls in this victory.

Sure, if you've got the strength to do it. For instance, you are free to sit on a limb of a tree (the ground is still too wet) in the sunshine and study. Or if you don't want to sit on the limb, you might hook your legs around it and hang upside-down to study. Lots of people complain about this latter method because they say they can't concentrate in this un-orthodox position. SPE'S STAGE RALLY--final exam.

JANUARY 13, 1942 Offer Civil Service Work To Students The United States Civil Service commission has just announced two examinations of interest to college juniors and seniors. They are the annual "junior professional assistant" and "student aid" examinations designed by the government to recruit college graduates, juniors, and seniors for government positions. Optional branches included in the junior professional assistant examination this year are agricultural economist, agronomist, aquatic biologist, archivist, bacteriologist, biologist, chemist, entomologist, forester, geologist, junior in household equipment, olericulturist pomologist, public welfare assistant, range conservationist, soil scientist, State department assistant, and statistician. These positions are all in the junior grade with a salary of $2000 a year. Need 4-Year Course Requirements for the junior professional assistant positions are a four-year college course leading to a bachelors degree with major graduate or undergraduate study in the field of the optional study. Senior and graduate students will be admitted to the examination and upon attaining eligibility will receive professional appointment. They cannot enter on duty until evidence of successful completion of their required college course is furnished the civil service commission. Applicants must not have passed their thirty-fifth birthday. Four optional subjects in the Student Aid examination include engineering, political science, public administration, and statistics. To be eligible for examination in these fields students must have completed at least three years of accredited college study, and must have indicated at their college or university the intention of majoring in the optional subject chosen. Student Aid positions pay $1,440 a year with employment usually coming during the school vacation period. Appointees will be fur- louloged to return to their college studies in the fall. Applicants for student aid positions must not have passed their thirtieth birthday. RYTHER NAMED---pledge to join the military air forces in time of war.

We must conserve heat and light. Do not leave lights burning in any office or classroom when unoccupied. 4. Each weekend turn off radiators in office rooms which are not occupied over Saturday and Sunday. 5. When offices or classrooms are too warm, turn off radiators instead of opening windows. 6. Check storerooms and other seldom used spaces to see if radiators can be partly or entirely turned off. I found one such storeroom in my own building. 7. All junk metals — copper, zinc, brass, aluminum, iron — can be disposed of at much better prices than heretofore. Laboratories in particular should check all discarded equipment stored in various buildings to see if it has any value other than junk. Valuable storage space might be released. 8. Used rags can be sold, if they are not oil-soaked. Tin candles are worth 25 cents per hundred weight when mashed flat, at the junk yard. 9. Heavy manila envelopes in which you receive magazines or other publications can be used again and again for campus mailings. If you do not have use for all such envelopes you receive, turn them over to the business office. 10. Any paper which is blank on one side can be cut to scratch-pad size and padded at nominal cost for desk use. 11. Be on the alert to eliminate fire hazards or other sources of accidents. A building damaged or lost by fire at this time probably could not be replaced. Check all possible fire hazards in your building at once. If in doubt, call the situation to the attention of Hallie Harris, janitor foreman. MSC TO NAME---pledge to join the military air forces in time of war.

Another 10,000 CAA-trained aviators are aiding the war effort by serving as instructors in military flying schools of this nation and the British empire, as aviation weather forecasters, photographers, map makers or mechanics. Others have become co-pilots on airlines, thus releasing army and navy reserve offers for active duty. WASHINGTON, Jan. 14 (U.P.)—More than 10,000 youths piloting U. S. warplanes received their initial flying instruction in the Civil Aeronautics Administration's training program, and CAA officials are proud that one of its trainees was among the first American heroes of World War II.

THURSDAY Blow in to Tickle You Silly--- ROSALIND RUSSELL WALTER PIDGEON 'Design for Scandal' The CAA started its program to create a reserve of civilian pilots in 1938, and now is graduating trainees from the elementary course at the rate of 24,000 a year. The CPT elementary training does not enable the army or navy to reduce the amount of instruction for its student pilots, but the civilian program weeds out many unqualified youths, upon whom the military otherwise might waste time and money. "The CPT elementary course is a pre-selector for the military services." Robert H. Hinckley, assistant secretary of Commerce for Air said "We wash them out in adv-ance." Hinckley said the rate of elimination during the primary instruction in the air corps is seven per cent for CPT trainees, as compared with 45 per cent for others. GARDNER LIKES O.U.---- (continued from page five) sive shoots drills before Oklahoma comes to Manhattan Saturday night for a return match. In spite of the loss, Gardner said his club played its best game of the season at Norman. The squad has shown steady improvement since the season opened. Sophomores, six of whom are on the travelling squad, are gaining seasoning and should be of more and more help. Danny Howe, senior center who was handicapped by injuries on Kansas State's trip into the Northwest, appeared to have found himself against Oklahoma as he captured many rebounds and dunked in 12 points to lead the Wildcat scoring. Marlo Dirks, a six-foot-three sophomore pivot man, also has shown marked progress. Saturday's game will be Kansas State's first in conference competition on the home floor.

JANUARY 14. 1942 u! er" n- s ! NUMBER 71 39th YEAR Favored KU Meets MU Tonight Open ROTC to All Students Open R May Enroll Without Fall Course Contrary to an apparently popular conception, University of Kansas men students may enroll for spring courses in the department of military science and tactics without having taken work during the fall term. In view of military developments since the opening of the school year, Col. James S. Dusenbury has called special attention to this fact of the students who are engaged with their pre-enrollments beginning this week. Military science and tactics subjects are arranged so that second semester work may precede that of the first semester without handicapping the student. For this reason, a student entering in the spring semester, or a student already matriculated, can enroll in military science without difficulty. Colonel Dusenbury also calls attention to the fact that students who have junior ranking can enroll now and complete the basic courses which lead to the status of noncommissioned officers, by the time of their graduation. Also, he points out that the exceptionally huge demand at the present time for both commissioned and non-commissioned officers at the present time makes such procedure worthy of consideration, especially in light of the co-operative war activities program being set up between universities and the federal government. The program of the United States army is to obtain many officers from those selected after induction into service, by sending them to officers' training school. Upon graduation from the school, they will receive appointments as officers. College men with any degree of military training, will have a big advantage, Colonel Dusenbury said. KFKU Roundtablers To Discuss Defense Juniors in V-7 Take Notice The KFKU Roundtable discussion at 9:30 tonight will be on the subject of "National Defense and Vital Materials." Dean Frank Stockton of the School of Business will lead the discussion assisted by R. S. Howey and Vant Kebker, both of the economics department. The discussion on family life, previously announced for tonight, will be broadcast one week from tonight. Summer School or Else Those junior men who have enlisted in class V-7 of the United States Naval Reserve will not be required to make their summer's outing a trip, for keeps, to a naval training base if they are enrolled in summer school, it has been announced. The Naval Reserve takes college graduates only, but under the V-7 program men may enlist before they are graduated. When a V-7 man is called, he goes to a naval training station as an able seaman for one month. The University has received word from the bureau of navigation of the Navy department that it is not the intention of the Navy department to call juniors enrolled in the V-7 program Then he is sent as a midshipman to either Northwestern University at Evanston, Ill., or Prairie State in New York, where he is given further training for four months. At the end of this time he is commissioned as an ensign. during the summer of 1942 provided the juniors are in attendance in the University during the summer. More than a hundred students who have already enrolled in the V-7 program and all men who are planning to enroll may now be assured that they will not be called to active service until after their graduation, so long as they are continuously attending the University. Further information about V-7 enlistment may be obtained from James K. Hitt, acting registrar. 'War Women' Meet At WREN Tomorrow To Plan Group The wives, mothers, daughters, and sisters of men in the armed froces are invited to meet in the chamber of commerce room in the WREN building tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock, Mrs. Frank E.

BY CHUCK ELLIOTT Kansan Sports Editor The first definite strength of the Jayhawkers will be shown tonight when they tangle with the Missouri Tigers at Columbia in their first Big Six game of the season away from home. The game will be Kansas' second in conference competition and fourth of the season. Missouri, on the other hand, will be playing its third game in the Big Six and tenth of the season. It will also mark the Tigers first Big Six appearance at home this season. Kansas will enter the game a marked favorite with its victory over Oklahoma as the main basis for this assumption. However, all predictions are to no avail when the Tigers and Jayhawkers meet. In the history of games played between the two schools it makes no difference as to the season records of the teams. Tigers Rip Jayhawks Especially is this true when the Jayhawks travel to Columbia. In 1935 the Jayhawkers had a chance to win the Big Six title by taking only one of the two games played at Columbia that year. However, they were upset in both contests, 21 to 18 and 23 to 21, and Iowa State came through with the conference crown. Last year the Kansans won, 34 to 25 but this was their first victory in three years. In 1940 the Tigers were on top 42 to 31 and in 1939 they administered the worst shellacking ever experienced by a Kansas crew at the hands of Missouri, 55 to 30.

Technician Shortage Hits Laboratories Several calls for technicians received at the bacteriology department office from various states show evidence of a demand for women technicians, according to N. P. Sherwood, professor of bacteriology. "We do not have enough majors who are finished with their training to take the positions that were offered this week," Dr. Sherwood said. For the technician and bacteriology major there are opportunities in hospital laboratories and clinics, state and city board of health laboratories, teaching, and research. These positions in hospitals, laboratories and clinics usually offer an initial salary of from $75 to $125 per month with board, room, and laundry. The maximum salary for individuals not holding an M. D. or Ph. D. degree but with an A. B. or at most an A. M. is approximately $150 per month and maintenance. The salary for men with M. D. degrees or Ph. D. degrees is much greater. Government positions in bacteriology vary from subordinate positions to positions paying up to $5,- 000 to $6,000 a year. The packing plants and other industries employ bacteriologists for control of bacteriology of their products and for research work. The salary range is from about $1,000 to $4,000 a year.

Dr. Wetmore gives the background of the museum as concerned with Lewis Lindsay Dyche, after whom the museum was named, Dr. Francis Huntington Snow and himself The author, a native Kansan, tells of his personal contacts with the two faculty members while attending this University. Dr. Wetmore says of Professor Dyche: "He traveled through Kansas to tell in high schools and other halls the story of his adventures illustrated with stereotype picture of places that he had seen. Undoubtedly it was these lectures that made him one of the best-known members of the university faculty of his day throughout the state, and that helped to persuade reluctant legislators of the desirability of a special museum building to house the collections that he and others had made." In speaking of Doctor Snow, Wetmore says he was "the pioneer in natural science in Kansas so far as this University is concerned." There is also brought into the article much of the history of the modern museums throughout the world and some of the historical facts concerning the Smithsonian Institution. Dr. Wetmore concludes this address-article: "Support of this great defense program is paramount and essential, but with it let us not forget that in cultural and esthetic pursuits there are not only improvement for the mind and training for the future, but also momentary escape for the individual from the troubles that beset him. "In the halls of our museums, our art galleries and our libraries throughout our great nation there is found enjoyment and recreation for the public to be encountered now where else. The contemplation of nature and its laws, and of the individual objects that exemplify these, brings a relief and a peace not elsewhere possible. "Public morale, of maximum importance under the grim threats of war, is fostered by such mental relaxation. These are facts to be remembered in periods of stress, that the small financial support for such activities be not denied. Let us consider this as a contribution to the defense armament of the mind and of the soul." Between-Semester Trips Arranged By Travel Bureau The Union Travel Bureau is taking requests from students and faculty members desiring rides or passengers for trips between semesters. Georgia Ferrel, Travel Bureau staff member, asked students to phone their requests to the Student Union Activities office as soon as possible as no applications will be taken after final examinations begin. Persons requesting rides will be notified if there are any opportunities. Drivers and passengers must make all the arrangements as the Bureau acts only as agent.

He added that the third contest on inter-American relations in March would be a forerunner of a national contest on the same subject. The national contest will be divided into 50 districts and the winners of each district will have expenses paid to the regional contest which will consist of seven regions. Four contests following "Kansas Problems" have definitely been scheduled, but this will be only part of the activity increase, E. C. Buehler, director of the contest, said. Winners in regional contests will receive free trip and all expenses paid on an extended tour through South America to last all summer. A Triple Play, Mumps From Dad To Kids to Dog Arkansas City—(UP)—Mrs. Cecil Hawkins sent her five children back to school this week but the "Mumps" sign still was hung out at the Hawkins residence. Then the family spaniel, Peggy Pepper, got 'em. When her husband went to bed with the Mumps, one after another of his children followed suit. Fortunately, the affliction spared Mrs. Hawkins who carried on with her husband's bottling works business while caring for seven patients. Husband and spaniel still were convalescing today. That's Putting Him in His Place Kansas City, Mo.-(UP)“Do you mean to tell me,” demanded Lawyer Marion Johnson of a Negro witness, “that this defendant came up to the man out of a clear blue sky and hit him with a shovel?” The Negro, testifying for the state in an assault to kill case, was quick and to the point. "No, sir," he replied, "he walked up there on the ground." Texas U. Makes Boogie Woogie From Foster Austin — (UP) — Transition of a simple folk melody into a ballroom dance selection and finally into a turn of boogie woogie was described and illustrated during a recent University of Texas-produced radio program.

Negotiations have been under way for two months to schedule this game and only yesterday was definite assurance received that it would be possible to play the skirmish. The availability of the Great Lakes team has always been known but the price for their appearance has been quite steep. However, the Naval squad will be in the midst of a western tour at that time and will stop off at Kansas City on their way home. SAILORS BOAST A GREAT RECORD The night before the Kansas clash, the Creighton Bluejays will form the opposition at Omaha for the star-studded squad of sailors. This game should form a good basis for comparison of the Creighton and Kansas team strength. The following Tuesday night, Feb. 10, the Bluejays come down to Lawrence for a game between the champions of the Missouri Valley conference and the Big Six. Particularly familiar to fans in this section will be two members of the Great Lakes starting five. They are John Lobsiger and Bill Menke. Lobsiger will be remembered as the all-conference guard from Missouri during the latter's co-championship year with Oklahoma in 1939. He has been shifted to center this year. Menke is one of the Indiana University flashes who rode rough shod over a courageous little "Pony Express" band of Jayhawkers in the finals of the play-offs in Kansas City in 1940 to determine the National Collegiate Athletic Association champion. The Great Lakes squad also includes such stars as Dick Klein of Northwestern, Frank Baumholtz of Ohio University, Forrest Anderson of Stanford, Bob White of Dartmouth, Ernie Andres of Indiana, and Bob Calihan. The Naval team has beaten every college team in Indiana and the majority of the Big Ten leaders. One of their early victories was a 52 to 46 decision over Notre Dame. Since then the sailors have sunk Purdue, Indiana, Wabash, and Butler among others. Although K.U. has a full schedule of 18 games which is the maximum allowed by the Big Six, the Jayhawkers will be able to play this game as an added attraction because of the nature of the contest. All profits from this game, after expenses have been subtracted, will be turned over to the Navy for National Emergency causes. MORE NOTES ON GREAT LAKES Not only is Bill Menke on the Great Lakes team but Menke's seem to be playing basketball all over the mid-west. Al Menke, Bill's brother, is playing center on Purdue's first five this winter; Ken Menke, a cousin of the boys, is a starting forward on Doug Mills' undefeated Illinois team; and Bob Menke, brother of Bill and Al, is playing for Chanute Field of Rantoul, Ill. Bob was a member of the same Indiana team as Bill. Together the boys aided the Hoosiers in trampling the Jayhawks 60 to 42. After noting the roster of the Great Lakes team it is quite evident that it is one of the outstanding basketball squads in the country. But this is only a beginning it seems. The report circulating now is that the Station will go all out on athletics and be especially prominent when the baseball season rolls around. Attempts are being made to lineup a number of the major league players who will be subject to the draft this winter and summer. Bob Feller is the latest prospect for the team. He is at present stationed at Norfolk, Va., but it is likely that he might do the pitching for the sailors this summer. If this plan goes through the Naval boys will provide plenty of competition around the midwest and will probably be as good as many of the Class AA teams of the country. A PERFECT COMBINATION After watching the freshman team in action against the varsity Monday night it is quite evident that Mit Allen knows what he is doing when it comes to teaching the yearlings the art of basketball. It seems to be the ideal set-up with "Phog" coaching the varsity and son Mit drilling the freshman cagers. Mit knows his father's fundamentals thoroughly and knows just what to teach the youngsters that will stand them in good stead when they move up in the coming years. The Allen system places definite emphasis on fundamentals and once a knowledge of these are gained in the first year of college ball it only remains to add finesse to make a player a full-rounded star. Although this year's fresh squad might not appear to have the outstanding ability that last year's freshmen team had, their potentialities indicate that Kansas will be in the championship bracket for years to come. Outstanding offensive threats at present are Otto Schnellbacher, leading scorer in the state last year while playing for Sublette, and Armand Dixon, California-style shooting flash. Stan Hansen possesses a good one-handed shot and completes a high-scoring front line. Defensive aces of the team are two Wyandotte grads, Bill Brill and Kenny Thompson. Both are good ball-handlers and excel at working the ball in to their forwards. ULRICH PASSES NAVAL RESERVE Odds and ends: Herbie Gregg, diminutive forward of Missouri's basketball last year, has lost none of his scoring touch it seems. At present he is leading the scorers of the Naimmith League in Kansas City with 41 points. He scored 17 points in Hoch auditorium last year and will be back next semester at Missouri to plague the Jayhawkers. . . . Jack Ettinger, brother of Don "Red-Dog" Ettinger of the present Jayhawker squad, is playing for the Union Wire Rope team in the Naimmith League. Jack Crocker, former Missouri football guard and blocking back in 1940, is making $25 a day driving a dynamite truck. It's nice work as long as it lasts. . . .

Two undefeated teams will clash when Newman I meets Sigma Alpha Epsilon in tonight's feature intramural basketball game, scheduled for 10:00 o'clock in Robinson gymnasium. By BILL PORTER A. T.O.'s continued their current Sig Alph's appeared in the play-offs last winter, and the present Newman delegation is practically the same as the one that reached the finals last year, only to be defeated in two straight games by Phi Gamma Delta, perennial champ. This season, Newmans have three consecutive victories to their credit, while the Sig Alph's have emerged victorious from their two scheduled contests. 37 The Crackerjacks took a 36 to 27 win from the Fountaineers, and Carruth Hall defeated Battenfeld 28 to 17 in last night's 6:00 o'clock games. Carruth, leading 12 to 6 after a slow first half, picked up in the last periods to emerge from the game with Battenfeld with an 11 point lead. Again Mac Frederick was high scorer for Carruth, this time chalking up 9 tallies, while Fred Humphrey tossed in 7 points in addition to playing a good defensive game at guard. Jim Mills, Battenfeld center, also scored 9 points for his delegation. The Fountaineers sank 7 out of 7 attempted free throws, but couldn't find the bucket often enough in action despite the work of Jim Gillispie, who put in 12 points. Frazier was high man for the Crackerjacks with 11. The ruling stated: In view of the national defense movement and in the interest of service morale, each Big Six institution is permitted to schedule such competition as it may deem advisable and that such competition against service teams be not counted as years of participation against members of a varsity, "B", or freshman teams or against the limitation of existing schedules. Rear Admiral John Downes, commandant of the Ninth Naval District, said the games were scheduled after the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association permitted Big Six conference teams to play service teams in contests not held on campus courts. Jayhawks Meet Great Lakes In City on Feb. 5 Kansas will meet the Great Lakes Training Station basketball team Feb. 5 in the Municipal Auditorium at Kansas City for a benefit for the Navy relief fund, it was announced yesterday. With stars from the Big Ten and Big Six, including William Menke of Indiana, and John Lobisger, former Missouri U. star, the Great Lakes will play Nebraska at Lincoln, January 25, Drake at Des Moines, February 2, Iowa State at Ames February 3, and Creighton at Omaha February 4. winning streak by beating Theta Tau 37 to 28 in one of the 10:00 o'clock games. The contest was an even one at first, but the A.T.O. scoring team of Mark McLain and Joe Holt put their squirrel in the lead before the half, which ended 18 to 13. Francis Domingo, Theta Tau standby, put in 7 points in the first half, but failed to find the bucket in the last two periods. However, Theta Tau Ted Moser was high scorer for the game with a total of 15. Pi K. A.'s, seeking revenge after their defeat at the hands of the Beta's last week, overwhelmed the D.U. five 41 to 18. D.U.'s battled all the way, but inaccurate passing, as well as a height disadvantage, contributed to their defeat. Jim Russell, D.U. guard, was the sparkplug of his team, while the work of Bill Mathews, Joe Crawford, and Bill Atwell, who got hot in the first quarter to give his squad its early lead, added to the Pi K.A. success. Baseball Goes Wimpy Gwinn W. Henry, University athletic director, this morning branded rumors that Kansas will have a new football line coach next year as "newpaper talk." He said that he had read the report in newspapers but that there was no ground for it. Henry explained that while Kansas could use an additional coach, the athletic board had reduced expenditures so that Kansas had to dismiss, rather than hire, a coach. He explained that the athletic board had denied the baseball team funds this season, but it is possible that the University team may play some of the teams of colleges located near Lawrence at the team's own expense. "We have invited the other Big Six schools to bring their baseball teams here to play at their own expense," Henry added. Gets Best Player Trophy Columbia, Mo., — (UP)— The junior chamber of commerce last night presented a plaque to Harry Ice. University of Missouri quarterback, for being "the outstanding Tiger player in the Missouri-Fordham Sugar Bowl game." asked to appoint officials for the K.U. game, Coach "Phog" Allen said.

Center Drake Is 'Tuckerless' For Three More Games Coach Bruce Drake is pointing his Oklahma basketball drills for the three games his youthful Sooner club still must play without Gerald Tucker, competent sophomore center. After absorbing a 22-point licking by Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen's Kansas Jayhawkers at Lawrence Jan. 6, Oklahoma rebounded against Kansas State at Norman Saturday night, triumphing 47-40 and will undertake a two-game road trip this weekend, clashing with Kan- $ ^{ \circled{ }}$ weekend, coming with Tennessee State at Manhattan Saturday and with Missouri at Columbia Monday. The final game Tucker must miss is the Iowa State clash at Norman January 26. Drake liked several things about his crippled squad's surprise defeat of Kansas State. He praised the Oklahoma squad's team play. The Sooners held to their set plays and were feeding each other well. Paul Heap, 6-foot 4-inch junior center who has always been too modest to shoot as often as he should, did a great job on the pivot post in Tucker's absence, cleverly handling the difficult post passing in thick traffic and forking in six field goals with his rebounding and spin shooting. Heap also dogged the ball well off the Kansas State backboard. Bob McCurdy, Purcell sophomore, stopped Jack Horacek, Kansas State's senior marksman, with one field goal, permitting Horacek, the Wildcats' high scorer the past two seasons, only three shots from the field. If McCurdy can continue such corking coverage he may make the Sooners another Marvin Snodgrass. However the coming road trek will find Drake's club playing on foreign floors. Short of good reserves and still maneuvering without Tucker, it is believed Oklahoma will find it doubly difficult to defeat either Kansas State or Missouri on their home courts.

So far, Oklahoma has been a poor road club, defeating George Washington, but losing to St. Johns, DePaul, Bradley Tech and Kansas, all formidable clubs. Jack Nash, sophomore forward and Dean Lill, junior letterman, also worked out with the squad yesterday, strengthening Gardner's hopes for a more potent attack against the Sooners. Darren Schneider, 6-foot 7-inch sophomore center, joined the Wildcats yesterday working out at the pivot post. Schneider, who played end on the Kansas State football team, was a scoring ace at St. Francis, Kans., High School. Faulty shooting was costly to the Wildcats in both conference tilts with Nebraska and Oklahoma. In the first half of the Nebraska game Kansas State hit but three out of 33 shots and dropped the conference opener 44-to-38. Against the Sooners the Aggies made an average of 25 per cent on scoring while Oklahoma hit 47 per cent of their attempts. Danny Howe, senior center, will divide time at the center post with Schneider. Howe led the Wildcat scoring in the Oklahoma game with 12 points and was also standout defensively. Three Additions Made By Gardner To K-State Team Kansas State hopes for a victory over Oklahoma Saturday were given an appreciable boost yesterday when Coach Jack Gardner announced the addition of three players to the basketball squad. Women's Intramurals By Nancy Prather --- Both games in women's basketball were extremely one sided last night. The Kappa's defeated the Gamma Phi's 31-9. Margaret Butler and Lo Smith made most of the points for the Kappa's. At the half the Kappa's led 15-0 but at the beginning of the third quarter Marynell Dyatt connected with the basket several times to bring up the Gamma Phi score. Shirley Irwin was the outstanding guard for the Kappa's and Mary B. Took played well at guard position for the Gamma Phi's. Corbin Hall won over the Alpha Delta Pi's 37-11. The scoring for Corbin was divided evenly between Margaret Wells and Margurette Demint. Alta Bingham and Margaret Struble were the cuts and guards. The A.D. Pi's scored three points during the first half and eight more in the second half but the powerful Corbin team was too much for them. Nesmith's Brother Killed at Corregidor Clair Nesmith, 33, brother of Dean Nesmith, Kansas athletic trainer, was killed January 6 while helping defend Corregidor Island from the Japanese, the war department has announced.

Charlie Black, with his 25-point average in Big Six conference, will lead the attack from his modified post position. At the other forward will be Ralph "Cappy" Miller. Miller has not yet shown the form which made him an outstanding star during his sophomore year in college. A Miller Jinx Missouri has always proved more or less of a jinx to Miller. In two games in Brewer fieldhouse he has scored only four and six points. His average this season in conference play is 11 points. At center for the Jayhawks will be one of the smoothe t ball-handler, on the entire squad, John "Thin-Man" Buescher. Bisch scored 10 points against Oklahoma and played a good floor game also. Ray Evans will make the second sophomore in the starting line-up tonight, playing with Black. Evans has not yet started scoring this year although in high school at Wyan-dotte he was one of the leading scorers on the team. Marvin Sollenberger, only returning regular from last year's cochampionship crew, will be stationed at the other back line position. Solly has never proved a scoring threat but has been the leading defensive player on the squad. MJV Joe Sorensen M.U.

Save Everything The University has joined another part of the war program—Conservation. Heading the forces is T. C. "Mickey" Ryther, but it will be an all-out program on the campus with everyone participating. In the buildings and grounds department, C. G. Bayles is busy figuring out just how much heat and light can be saved by turning radiators off on Friday night in rooms that are not used over the weekend, and by janitors, students and faculty members turning off lights which are not in use. Mr. Bayles assures us that the figures will be impressive enough to shock everyone into being an active conservator. The Lawrence police force is cooperating with the University officials in spotting possible vulnerable points on the campus and setting up defense equipment around the power plant, etc. Night watchmen have a more thorough and effective schedule in operation. University employees and faculty members have just received a list of eleven ways in which they can help conserve everything including heat, and light, convert rags, junk metals, and old magazines into cash, and find new uses for old manila envelopes and onceused paper. Mr. Ryther and his committee is on the right path. True, many of their suggestions should have been "common practices" for years, but now that we are all awake the most important thing in the scheme is that every individual does his part regardless of how unimportant it may seem in itself. The writer of a letter to the editor of the Chicago Sun suggests that Hitler might make an excellent houseboy for the White House family, after the war is over. End of the Trail Poised on the brink of extinction, perhaps soon to pass into the fog-shrouded never-never land of pleasant retrospect, along with the bustle and the flintlock and the passenger pigeon, is the double breasted suit. In these times, America needs to conserve wool, and the overlap in the double breasted suit takes enough extra wool to make some 500,000 utilitarian, unaesthetic single breasted outfits yearly. Thin men must look to a future grim and foreboding. The double breasted suit was a boost to the ego of the angular person, creating an impression of chesty bulk that didn't exist. There was an air of dignity, an aura of taste for the finer things, a touch of the executive that hovered about the wearer. The double breasted suit was a camouflage, an impressive front to conceal the bony topography of its owner. Now it will be due for a place in the museums of the land, to serve as a symbol of happier days when contented sheep grew bountiful harvests of wool on their broad sloping backs, and olive drab was not the predominant hue in the color scheme of America the Beautiful. But in some far distant day we can look back through the faded photographs in our albums and see the thin men of the nation clad in single breasted suits, deprived of depth and breadth, left only height by the exigencies of war. We can look upon their grim, determined features, and see men who considered the good of the country above personal appearance, and we can say "This was our finest hour."

Rock Chalk Talk DEAN OSTRUM Sensible Summerfields on the Hill refuse to worry over this country's lack of rubber. It's the paper shortage that has them puzzled. With finals approaching rapidly, Summerfield scholar John Scurlock decided not to take any chances. A quick trip downtown for a super-size magic slate was his solution. Sigma Chi pledge George "Lover" Lind is playing the field and the Owl Omega team has been batting 1,000 every inning. Before the holidays George went steady with Chi O pledge Virginia Britton. During the holidays Virginia strayed, so George began dating Virginia's pledge sister, Carlene Rice. Carlene and George are now going steady. Which all proves that history repeats itself. Jay Gunnels says he's found a "natural" for Betsy Dodge's Sour Owl staff. In a recent bull session, Clarence Mongold, engine school senior, is reported to have told jokes for five solid hours with never a repeat. Gunnels adds that all were of a strictly parlor variety. While laboring in laboratory the other day, Alpha Chi Bette Leimert was suddenly confronted by her beaming chemistry professor. "I want to congratulate you, Miss Leimert," he began. "I want to congratulate "Why so?" Bette gaped. "Why on your fine examination paper." was the answer. "Ninety-eight!" was the jubilant reply. "What did I get?" the amazed girl continue "Writing is hard," she skimmed into calm. Opening her mouth and grabbing her head, Bette dramatically sunk back toward her work stool and fell flat on the floor. Her lab partner had moved the stool to do an experiment. Three-point scholar Phi Psi Duane Kline has officially been dubbed the chapter's head worry bird. According to the Psi's, Duane worries all the time—mostly about his grades. With finals starting next week it is now a common sight to see him sneaking off to bed at 4 a.m., his cheeks bulging with aspirin tablets, a warm-up hood pulled over his head, and horn-rimmed glasses on—all set for a nice night of sleepless unmolested worry. Early risers say they often find the "worry bird" sitting straight up in bed at 6 a.m., staring into the darkness through his glasses with a grim look of determination on his face—worrying. As a public service for University women The University Daily Kansan presents a series of bridge lessons. By diligent study of these article women will be able to master the fundamentals of the game and thus be able to amuse themselves this next semester when the only men on the campus will be Naval Reserve's, who dare not take chances with women, and those rejected by the draft. And women dare not take chances with those rejected for if the army won't have them there is no reason why women should be more broad-minded. Bridge is a simple game played by four simple people. Of course, there is three-handed bridge and honeymoon bridge. The real interest isn't bridge in the latter, and in the former the third person not needed for honeymoon bridge and the missing partner from real bridge cancel each other, so we may dismiss Since four people are needed, the prospective bridge player must first search for three other people who are moved by a like sportive spirit. As an aid to this we will now impart to our readers some invaluable advice, gleaned by the author after 40 years exhaustive study of psychology, physiology and allied sciences, as well as many hours spent in smoke filled rooms playing penny-ante. When The Men Are Gone Learn To Play Bridge Because of certain genetic ane psychological factors involved, the human animal is constitutionally adverse to playing bridge if asked to be anything but "A fourth at bridge." Never, never ask anyone, not even your best friend, to be anything else. The strongest bonds of friendship have been shattered by lesser crimes and besides, the person won't play bridge. So when wishing to play bridge, remember to get three "fourths" and if you get four-fifths you won't have to play bridge for amusement after all. Once the four players are assembled an other problem rises to face the instigator of the game; whether to play on the floor, a bed, or to set up a bridge table. The table is the most comfortable but our friend dares not leave his three *fourths* uncorralled for fear they will stray. The best solution to this problem is to lure your players into a room and lock them there while you search for a table. Another method, much recommended by experienced bridge hounds is that of setting up a table set up from before hand. This method, however, may be criticised on the grounds that it leaves its perpetrator open to ridicule. The embarrassment of setting up a table, arranging chairs and then having no players is one that is apt to bring forth all tendencies towards schizophrenia naturally inherent in weak characters. But at last the players are gathered, the table is set, and the blissful bridge fiends settle themselves to an evening of gross enjoyment. But, ho, Dick Dalton, there is trouble afoot (trouble is afoot like the rest of us now because of the tire shortage). There is no deck of cards and the cardinal rule of bridge is "No cards, no bridge game." Six hundred clerical employees of FBI are studying at Washington colleges and universities in their off hours.

For nearly 40 days he has held out against devastating Japanese assault and today there were hints in Tokyo propaganda reports and the official American communiques that his forces still pack a punch. The Japanese, in fact, went further than Washington's official advises and frankly admitted that MacArthur has launched counter-attacks against the troops which are pressing his Bataan province lines. Tokyo insisted, however, that the counter-attacks were not effective. The American reports credited MacArthur with a handy victory in a battle of big guns in which Japanese attempts to soften up MacArthur's lines for large-scale land assault failed notably. However, it was emphasized by all informed military sources that MacArthur's battle is strictly defensive and against odds which mount in direct ratio to his losses of men and consumption of ammunition, food and material. His task is to inflict as heavy losses as possible upon the Japanese; to deny them as long as possible the use of Manila Bay's excellent harbor facilities; and to maintain his position as a thorn in the side of the Japanese forces occupying the Philippine. MacArthur's position was likened to that of the British at Tobruk on the Libyan shore with the difference that there is only the scantest possibility of reinforcing and supplying him by sea as the Tobruk garrison was during its long siege. In contrast, MacArthur's forces and supplies are presumed to be considerably more ample than those which the British had when they were hemed in at Tobruk. While MacArthur fought his stubborn battle, American air forces appeared to be massing in the Dutch Indies and possibly at Singapore for the first real test of U.S. versus Japanese air power.

Tunney to Enlist Phys Ed Instructors Kansas City, Mo.—(Special)—Lt. Comdr. "Gene" Tunney, former world's heavyweight boxing champion, will return to Kansas City, January 26, 27, and 28, to enlist more men as instructors in the Navy's physical education program, announced Comdr. R. W. Holt, commanding officer of the Navy Recruiting station here, today. Men between the ages of 21 and 33, who hold a degree in physical education from an accredited college, will be interviewed by Tunney. Tunney requests that every applicant have in his possession at the time of the interview a transcript of his college record, a small recent photo, and his birth certificate. Interviews will be held between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. each day. Tunney states that single men will be given a preference over those who are married. University Grad Discovers New Pneumonia Virus Clara Nigg, a bacteriology major who received her A.B. degree from the University in 1921, has discovered a new pneumonia virus in the throat washings of influenza patients. She made the discovery while working with the Minnesota state department of health influenza research laboratory. Doctor Nigg made the discovery while working with white mice. The virus caused a typical pneumonia in the mice which had been inoculated with throat washings of influenza patients. The investigations were financed by a grant from the International Health division of the Rockefeller foundation. There are two other viruses resembling the new virus. It is not definitely known if any of the three is the cause of atypical pneumonia. Some cases of so-called influenza of the past few years is thought to have been this new kind of pneumonia. The account of Dr. Nigg's discovery reached Prof. N. P. Sherwood's office through a newspaper clipping printed in the Washington Daily News. Doctor Nigg is now associated with Squibbs and Co., Newark, New Jersey. A full account of the discovery is in the current issue of "Science." Hub Ulrich, all Big Six end of the Jayhawkers during the past season, has passed the Naval Reserve physical examination. He plans to be sworn in this week. . . . Horace Mason, sports publicity director of the University, passed the same physical but would prefer to get into the Public Relations department of the Great Lakes Naval Training Station.

Brewster, chairman of the chemistry department, discussed industrial possibilities of eastern Kansas to members of the Chamber of Commerce at a luncheon meeting yesterday afternoon in the Eldridge hotel. Meal remaining after processing of soy beans can be made into plastics; petroleum can be converted into rubber; and salt may be processed to produce chlorine, caustic soda, and hydrogen. Brewster said. He said that none of the four or five synthetics now being made is as good as natural rubber, but each substitute has at least one quality better than the same quality in the natural product. Brewster stated that grain sorghums, soy beans, salt, petroleum, coal, and natural gas can be converted into materials suitable for manufacture of many products now difficult to obtain. Demonstrating one of his points, he made a tough, spongy rubber ball from acetic acid and a small amount of synthetic liquid latex. According to Dr. Brewster, petroleum refining has always been faulty because of too great emphasis on producing gasoline. The Chamber of Commerce industrial committee is working for procurement of a defense plant on the Eudora-DeSoto site, a location discussed last summer. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 14, 1942 Dean Moreau Will Speak To K.C. Bar Association Dean F. J. Moreau of the School of Law will speak tonight before the Kansas City Bar Association at the University Club in Kansas City, Mo. His subject will be "The Facilities Made Available to Debaters by the Chandler act." Jones and Engle Win First Place In Bridge Finals Bill Jones and Clarence Engle won first place in the final rounds of the annual University bridge tournament played last night in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building. Second place honors went to Bob Wellington and Jack Burns. Third place was won by Conrad Voelker and Paul Diegel. Eight teams participated in the final round. Scores of the third round were combined with the scores of the second round for the final totals. Samoa, probably the most important in the chain because of the naval station at Tutuila, was attacked last week end. A small Japanese ship lobbed 14 light-caliibered shells into the naval station area but caused little damage. Japanese light naval units have carried out four hit-and-run raids on the most important of these islands—Samoa, Palmyra and Johnston. But for some unknown reason the Japanese have not attempted any full-dress attacks. Pacific Lands Withstand Jap Fire Washington, -(UP)- America's second line of islands in the Pacific -tiny stepping stones on air routes from Hawaii to New Zealand and Australia-still flew the American flag today after six weeks of war. Previously, Johnston was twice attacked. An unknown number of enemy craft figured in the first raid on Dec. 16. The second attack was carried out on Dec. 24 by a submarine which fired a few shells and then ducked. On the same day, Palmyra suffered its first and only attack to date, also from a submarine. In none of these actions was there any material damage or casualties. All of these islands, aside from their value as connecting links on the air routes from the U. S. to Australia and New Zealand and as air patrol stations, may prove of great value when offensive operations eventually are undertaken against Japan. Both Johnston and Palmyra were commissioned as naval air stations less than five months before the outbreak of war in the Pacific. From these stations, patrol planes are capable of covering a large area of the southern sea approaches to the U. S. west coast. Johnston commissioned on Aug. 14, 1941, is 717 miles southwest of Honolulu. On Jan. 2, new construction there approximated $5,687,000. A sizeable amount for so small an area. The island is only about one half mile long. Other islands linked in the outer defenses of the South Pacific area include Canton—1850 miles south of Hawaii on the route to Fiji and New Zealand—and Enderbury. No attacks have been reported there. Palmyra, commissioned on Aug. 15, 1941, is 960 miles southwest of Honolulu. A presidential order on Feb. 14, 1941, established Palmyra as a naval defense area. J.

Charley and Betty finally recognized themselves in the newspaper stories. Away went their doubts and today there are on a brief honey-moon. Interested neighbors sympathized with the youngsters and one wrote a letter to the Kansas City Star, outlining the case with fictitious names. Immediately a lively discussion was built up among newspaper readers—advice, warnings, and just plain good-humored criticism.

Clement, college freshman, was tried this afternoon by the Student Supreme Court for violation of the smoking regulations in regard to University buildings. The smoking bill was passed by the M.S.C. in the spring of 1940. Maximum sentence for violation is expulsion from school. Minimum sentence is a fine. The maximum punishment has never been inflicted. Clement's name was turned in to the Men's Student Council by C. M. Baker, director of libraries, who said that he saw Clement smoking in the lobby of Watson library. The case was referred to the Supreme Court. The five student justices convened at 2:30 this afternoon in the courtroom of Green hall. Parking violators were also tried. The only other smoking violation case to come before the court this year was dismissed in November when the defendant, George Lewis, Wichita, dropped out of school. The five student justices who heard the case this afternoon were Clyde Singer, chief justice, Bill Douce, Chad Case, Sam Freeman, and Dave Prager.

Sarcastic Propaganda Slams at Raids A story distributed by a national press service yesterday said that in the East a subversive propaganda campaign was being conducted by Nazi agents with the purpose of throwing aspersions on the Civilian Defense Program. Yesterday a copy of the flimsy, entitled "What to do in an Air Raid," was found on the University campus. Copies had been distributed in the vicinity of New York City on Tuesday, and the finding of a copy on the University campus only one day later implies that the sheet may be nationally circulated as part of a campaign to turn the Air Raid precaution program into a national joke. Will Offer Red Cross War Courses Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the Student Health Service, announced today that the health service, working in cooperation with the Douglas County Red Cross and the Lawrence Council on Civilian Defense, beginning next semester will offer three standard Red Cross courses for college credit. The health service has arranged to give training as Nurse's Aide, in Home Nursing and in Basic Nutrition, and in a First Aid course open to both men and women. The first aid course being offered is open to men and women over 17 years of age, and is a required course for students in the Nurse's Aide course and also for members of the University Emergency Medical Field Unit. The work in this course covers the principles of first aid: bandaging splinting, handling injured persons resuscitation. Two hour sections will be offered three times a week. Covers First Aid The basic course requires a minimum of 20 class hours, and for those who wish to further their training, an additional 10 class hours training will be given. Upon completion of the course and passing an examination, the student is awarded a Red Cross (continued to page eight) Tomlinson Tells of Research Engineers Get Lowdown One hundred and sixty School of Engineering students and faculty members last night heard representatives of the army, navy, and industry discuss aviation at the All-Engineers' dinner held in the Memorial Union building. Commander D. W, "Tommy" Tomlinson, commandant of the Kansas City Naval Reserve aviation base and principal speaker of the evening, proved to be a colorful speaker as he related his experiences in high altitude flying. Commander Tomlinson told the audience of his 1938 long distance stratosphere flight, the first ever attempted, from Kansas City to New York. The trip was made at an altitude of 30,000 feet, and at no time on the flight was the ground below visible to the pilot. From this flight specifications were drawn up by TWA that resulted in the designing of the famous Boeing stratoliner, the world's first high altitude transport. Results In Stratoliner At a height of 30,000 feet, approximately 95 per cent of the weather conditions are avoided, Tomlinson said. Only at 40,000 feet, however, can cloud formations be completely escaped. Bombing from such altitudes during the present conflict will be practical only on very clear days, he added. Tomlinson also described in detail the new Lockheed Constellation, designed by Howard Hughes and TWA engineers. The plane, a 4-engine transport capable of carrying 40 people and having a speed of 280 miles an hour, was labelled by Tomlinson "the foremost transport plane in the world." The Constellation, he said, would be in use now, except for the war. Following Commander Tomlinson's address, H. W. Baine of the personnel staff of Curtiss-Wright aircraft corporation discussed the future of aviation from the student's point of view. Look to No-War Future "Every aircraft company has commercial designs on the shelf now ready to be put into production as soon as the war is ended," he said. Baine painted a rosy picture of the Major Enoch O. Paulson, commanding officer of the army air corp detachment in Kansas City, also spoke. He emphasized the pressing need of pilots and engineers due to the complexity of present day aircraft. "The army is looking to the engineering students in the future," Paulson said. Engineering students who wish to become pilots will find their earlier training invaluable, he declared. employment situation in the industry's future. J. J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering, described to the gathering some of the war activity in the East from where he has just returned. He also described the new Chrysler tank, which he termed "huge and formidable." Acting as toastmaster at the dinner was Prof. J. O. Jones, assistant dean of the School of Engineering. Jakosky Tells of War Activity Musical numbers were furnished by Sidney Dawson, fine arts sophomore, who sang three spirituals, and by the Jayhawk Trumpeteers. Establish Loans To Russ Students a national loan scholarship fund for University students of Russian descent will be available through the Committee on Aids and Awards, Miss Lela Ross, executive secretary of the committee, announced today. The scholarship fund has been established as the Russian Student fund to aid Russian students in universities throughout the nation, according to Pierre Routsky, executive secretary of the organization. The letter did not state the qualifications desired of the applicant except that he must have been enrolled in an American university for one year. The loans will be awarded for the fall semester of 1942. Eligible students at the University who are interested are asked to see Miss Ross in room 1 Frank Strong hall, concerning details. Applications must be made before March 1. KU'a Leader In Defense'-- Dean Jakosky An even more active part will be taken by this University soon in the national war-time effort according to a statement made last night by J. J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering, at the All-Engineers' Dinner in the Memorial Union building. Experiments necessary to the defense of the nation will be conducted in the laboratories of this school, he said. The University will thus be one of three schools in the country where such experiments will be made. "No expense will be spared. The sky is the limit!" Jakosky told the engineers. Jakosky was in conference today, and could not be reached for further explanation of the planned laboratories.

Double Purpose Blackout Polson, Mont. —(UP)— Flathead valley authorities and the power company are to aid each other in a practice blackout. The power company planned to take advantage of the shutdown to make needed changes at a generating plant while the citizens learned what to do in the blackout. Flynn Says Martin Plays War Politics Washington, —(UP)— Chairman Edward J. Flynn of the Democratic national committee, and Chairman Joseph W. Martin, Jr., of the Republican national committee, who proclaimed a political truce for the duration on Dec. 11, appeared today to be headed for something of a political shindy. On Monday Martin broadcast a speech suggesting that President Roosevelt summon some Republicans and anti-new deal Democrats to help with the war effort. Specifically he suggested Former President Herbert C. Hoover for price control administrator, and Wendell L. Willkie, Alfred M. Landon, 1936 Republican Presidential candidate, former District Attorney Thomas E. Dewey of New York, and a group of Democrats, including Alfred E. Smith, Joseph B. Ely, John W. Hanes and Lewis W. Douglas. Flynn today issued a statement questioning Martin's interest in national unity. It said: "Esteemed contemporary, Chairman Martin of the Republican national committee, has nominated Herbert Hoover to be price control administrator. He does not state whether this is because of the ex-President's administrative ability, or merely as a token of the Republican desire to signalize the adjournment of politics during the war period. "It is likewise coincidental that a majority of Republican senators voted for amendments to the price control bill, which would take away the authority of Price Control Administrator Leon Henderson to operate in relation to the prices on pretty much everything we eat and wear—except with the countenance and approval of the secretary of agriculture—and hiked the proposed ceiling on agricultural prices. "At any rate Mr. Hoover's name heads the list of people chairman Martin thinks should occupy major posts in the administration. Mr. Martin is thoroughly nonpartisan in his nomination for he includes in his list several Democrats. It is only coincidence that among them are conspicuous the names of Democrats who opposed their party's nominee in the last election and were prominent in the forces affiliated with the Republicans. Sen. Tom Connally also had some suggestions about appointment of fashions in print E Giant petals grow against a vivid background in this beautifully draped dress with plastic flower buttons, and sleeves that just cover your elbows. Republicans to high posts in the war program. His suggestions: Willkie—"I would put Willkie in the public information section under Col. Donovan." (Col. William Donovan, coordinator of information).

Camp Stewart, Ga. —(UP)— It may seem strange to be accosted by military police with "if you please, sir," instead of the more familiar, "all right, pull over, bud," but it is not unusual at this army center where Lieut.

Originality--Spice of Life Dare To Be Different! Are you in a rut? Do you plod to class day after day, always monotonously the same as everyone else? Do you make people notice you every day or do they know how you will look without so much as glancing at you? There are too few people who dare to be original; it is so much easier just to be one of the mob. It really takes character, brains, and nerve to be different. Einstein, Wally Simpson and Winnie the Pooh are all famous for the quality of being different, for that interesting "only one that" distinction. The average girl is not original or daring because she is afraid. Afraid of "what people will think" a virtual "slave to opinion." Listen! You are all your own. In you resides the privilege to make yourself as charming, as beautiful and as outstanding as you can.Don't neglect this privilege. Stop pining because you aren't as cute as your roommate or as glamorous as the homecoming queen. Don't worry about them, but concentrate upon your own assets. You are your own responsibility. Try new styles! Wear a pea-green shawl with a scarlet dress, if that's what you want to do. Twist your hair into braids or hack it off. Try things, and adopt the becoming experiments for your very own. Be famous for your checked hair ribbons or your flashy anklets. Remember this, however, it's better to go a bit wrong on a fashion spree than to sink with a despondent "glug" into the slough of obscurity. Progress in every phase of our world has been due to the fact that someone was different—from the first cave man who tried his meat broiled to the modern scientist who searches for a method of storing the sun's heat. What a debt we owe to the pioneer woman who first wore slacks to school, braving narrow-minded convention and prejudice, that she and her sisters might be comfortably covered on freezing days. Everyone, whether or not he admits it, admires the "rugged individualist." So thumb your nose at opinion and—Dare to be Different.

Fifty-five years ago the man who established the University Kansan as a regular newspaper arrived on the Campus. This was Dr. E. M. Hopkins, now retired professor of English, who was to establish several departments in the University. The bureau of correspondence, the department of public speaking and debate, and the department of journalism owe their beginnings to him. About 1891 Dean F. W. Blackman suggested that the University might well offer a course in journalism, and he asked Professor Hopkins if he were willing to initiate it. During the first semester of 1891-92 such a course was offered, perhaps the first of its kind in the country. As the idea of having the paper run by one man was not satisfactory to the college public, a Kansas University Publishing Association was formed. Under this new management, the editors were elected in a manner similar to the present election of a P.S.G.L. or a Pachacamac candidate. This was before colleges had begun to consider giving courses in journalism. The newspaper men of that time didn't believe in teaching such a subject. According to them the only way one could become a good newspaper man was to "eat ink and sleep on the composing stone." After the semester this course was discontinued because of the small enrollment. Not till about 1900 did the University of Missouri offer what was probably the first regular course in journalism given in the United States. In 1902 Chancellor Frank Strong called a conference. He invited Henry Allen, editor of the Ottawa Herald, and Ewing Herbert from Hiawatha, Kan., two of the leading newspaper men in the state for the purpose of talking over the advisability of offering a course in journalism. These men were so favorably inclined toward it that the Chancellor decided to institute the new course. He turned the class over to Professor Hopkins as a course in the department of English. The course began in the fall of 1903 and has continued ever since. The second semester of 1903-04 the class didn't fare very well, for only three students enrolled. Three persons weren't enough to put out the Kansas so Professor Hopkins called for volunteers from the freshman rhetoric class. Fifteen students responded among whom were Jerome Beatty, well-known magazine writer, and Roy Roberts, managing editor of the Kansas City Star. Outstanding editors were invited to speak before the class. Among them were Walter Williams of the University of Missouri, B. B. Herbert from Chicago, and Albert Read, cartoonist on the Topeka Capital, and Charles M. Harger, editor of the Abilene Reflector. The Kansan was reorganized on a basis analogous to the pattern of the Yale News, Harvard Crimson, and the Princetonian. Jesse Kayser was the first editor of the reorganized Kansan and the man who really put it on its feet. He is now editor of the Chickasha Star in Oklahoma. Wasted to Buy Defense Bonds Chillicothe, Mo.—(UP)—It was a noble gesture, but nevertheless on the unlawful side. A Livingston county schoolboy told police that he wanted to buy defense bonds with the $100 he was trying to get from worthless checks. Convinced of his sincerity, officers sent him home with an admonition not to "carry your patriotism too far." Juniors in V-7 To Return After Summer Training Juniors enrolled in the Naval Reserve V-7 program will not be ordered to their 30-day active service training period next summer provided they are in attendance at the University during the summer, according to the latest report by the Navy department. Those junior students in the V-7 who do not attend summer school, however, will be called for the 30-day period during the summer months as was originally planned. After the month's training, V-7 men will be returned to inactive duty until they are graduated in 1943. Men who do not intend to enroll in summer school will be given adequate notice as to when and where they will report for the 30-day training, Naval Reserve officers have announced. British Officer To Give Pointers On Civilian Defense Kansas City, Mo. —(UP)—Firsthand information on how Great Britain overcomes civilian defense problems will be extended by Col. Rex L. Benson, military attache of the British embassy, in an address before a national defense conference banquet here Jan. 17. At the meeting of national officers and 48 state commanders of the veterans of Foreign Wars, Colonel Benson will elaborate on measures taken by Britain in support of the government's war efforts. The Colonel for many weeks has been closely connected with the activities of the British war mission which arrives in the United States with Prime Minister Winston Churchill. Farm Bureau Honors Chemists Burlington, Vt. Ut.-(UP)—Although Dean Joseph L. Hills of Vermont's Agricultural school is not a farmer, he was awarded the American Farm Bureau Federation Medal for distinguished service. A chemist, Hills has produced more than 100 practical agricultural aids. Students Burton for Lunch Farm Bureau Honors Chemist Bergen, N. Y. — (UP)— Since the Bergen High School's Economics Department inaugurated a system of exchanging a full meal for a few potatoes or other farm produce, 50 per cent of the students remaining on campus at the noon recess have become regular "customers." Granite, Okla. —(UP)— Dr. J. B. Landsden recently received a 100-year-old stethoscope from Tennessee relatives. It was made by hand labor of cedar, being eight inches long and funnel shaped. Landsden said heartbeats can be heard clearly with the instrument. Ancient Stethoscope Usable Criminal Mind Is Ingenious; 2 Million Crimes Washington—(UP) —The Census bureau estimates 2,000,000 major crimes are committed annually in the United States. There are arrests in less than one-fourth of the major crimes. The bureau's criminal - judicial statistics show that about 400,000 persons are arrested and charged with major crimes annually. An estimated 140,000 stand trial; 110,-000 are convicted, and about 75,-000 serve prison terms. The statistics cover murder, manslaughter, aggravated assault, rape, robbery, burglary, larceny and automobile theft. Hartford, Conn.—(UF)—It takes all kinds of people to make a world—and all kinds of burglarst to make an underworld. Insurance adjustors, looking over the files for 1941, found that the criminal mind contained an amazing amount of ingenuity, brazenness, resourcefulness, and a sprinkling of plain dumbness. Here are a few outstanding examples: A thief using a frosted lemon cake and a candle lured more than 500 pet trout from the private pool of a Schenectady, N. Y., banker. The fish, accustomed to eat out of the banker's hand, gobbled up the cake crumbs scattered on the surface of the pool by the unsportsmanlike rogue. Then, by candle-light, he scooped them into a net and departed. A persistent thief stole the wash of Mrs. Lorus Jackson off her line at Salt Lake City. Not satisfied with this, he returned two weeks later and carted away her washing machine. And bold, indeed, was the burglar who attended a testimonial banquet given by detectives and police chiefs for a New Jersey sheriff. Before the evening was over, the uninvited guest made off with the sheriff's presents—two large silver candle sticks. A burglar with a yearning for sweets admitted to Detroit police he robbed 13 confectionary stores. In one of them he spent three hours mixing banana splits, sundaees and fancy drinks to satisfy his sweet tooth. In the residential district at St. Paul, Minn., a man was seen prying up three sections of a cement sidewalk and loading them into his car. Police overtook him. The smartest burglar of the year was the prowler at Newton, Mass., who always took along a rubber bone to appease the family watch dog while he went about his work without fear of interruption. He was required to replace the sections. "Sure, I took the sidewalk," he admitted, "I didn't know anybody owned it." Bus. Biggest Haul Biggest haul of the year was a 26-passenger bus, stolen from a parking place in Jersey City and found abandoned a few hours later in Newark. Police suspected someone was in a big hurry to make the trip. Not so, however, in the case of a daring young man at Syracuse, N. Y., who stole a smaller bus. He drove it about the city for three hours collecting fares before he abandoned the vehicle. Another car thief made off with a Washington, D. C., mailman's cart—but obligingly delivered all of his mail. The clumsiest robbers were those who stole 32 cans of vanilla beans, worth more than $15,000, from a consignment arriving in New York from the Netherlands East Indies. They tried to sell the beans to a detective for $8,000. No Profit on These Jobs For disappointment, it would be hard to match the chagrin of the Philadelphia robber who stole two unlabeled bottles — one, containing rat poison and the other roach powder. And the Salt Lake City gent who made off with 15 drawings of a cemetery, and the Indianapolis burglar whose loot totaled 11 cents, and who left behind his shirt, cold chisel and jimmy. Police are still wondering why an energetic Denver thief spent an entire night ripping 42 pipes out of a theater organ. In Chicago authorities discovered a band of thieves who built up a $100,000 a year racket selling flowers snatched from graves. Obituary notices in the newspapers guided their activities. Two armed robbers in Farmsville, Va., furnished the year's most spectacular getaway. After robbing a street workman of $510 they hopped aboard a 10-ton steam roller and evaded capture. 'Wood Flour' Snatched From Air A University of Washington professor's dust-elimination invention literally has snatched a valuable wood by-product out of thin air. Professor Frederick K. Kirsten, school of aeronautical engineering, has disclosed how his application of the principle of centrifugal force to dust-laden air has resulted in a process by which fine wood dust—"wood flour"—can be reclaimed for use in plastics. The machine takes dust out of the air by setting it in whirling motion at terrific speed. The dust is thrown out by centrifugal force while the clean air is taken off at the center. He said wood flour sells for about $35 a ton. Smaller units soon will be in production, he said, for use as dust filters on automobile carburetors. Club Owners Prepare Storm For Holdouts New York —(UP)— There is a low rumble of thunder in the distance and the storm may break at any time. Once it cuts loose, either the New York Yankee baseball club or Jolting Joe DiMaggio is going to be thoroughly drenched. Which is a figurative way of saying that almost any day now the Yankees will mail a 1942 contract to their famed fielder and that the chance are even young Giuseppe will peek at the manuscript warily, wipe it clean of fingerprints and pass it back to the postman as quickly as he swings a bat. For the thunder won't be just a rumble then. It will roll in great waves and will be illuminated by plenty of lightning. Arguments will rage long and loud and such phrases as "war morale" and "national emergency" will be tossed like hand grenades from both sides of the fence. When that happens, break out the ear muffs. In some 24 hours DiMaggio will emerge as a hero or a bum, for he is the unhappy ball player upon whom will focus the entire problem of what to do about hold-outs in wartime—and how to do it. The battle may be bitter, with no punches barred, but it isn't likely DiMaggio will lose. The club owners currently are sermonizing that all players had better sign up at once, either with them or with the army. They have piously beaten their breasts, loudly announced they stand ready to aid the cause and then pontificated that hold-outs will be thrown out by the public if the boys refuse to sign up. Now they are attempting to influence opinion before the bargaining begins. They have concentrated on DiMaggio as a target and have said he is indeed lucky to be able to play ball at all when Ted Williams, Bobby Feller and Hank Greenberg are working for peanuts in the services.

Phone 75 New York Cleaners Merchants of GOOD APPERANCE 926 Mass. 12th & Oread PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY, JANUARY 15, 1942 --- Sportin' Around by Chuck Elliott Kansas seems well on her way toward another Big Six championship this year. At least, that is the way the team looked last night when they toyed with Missouri and still won by a comfortable margin. The Jayhawkers were none too sure of themselves as they stepped on the floor in Brewer Field House and they got down to serious business immediately. During the first half the Jayhawkers looked as good as any team Phog Allen has put on the court during the past five years. Their passing was sure and their shots steady. Especially was Johnny Buescher hot. He sank his first five long shots. Every time he would shoot the Missouri fans would groan and say, "It's in" before the ball even approached the basket. K.U. AS GOOD AS LONG ISLAND Joe Finley, sports editor of the Missouri Columbian, thought that the Jayhawkers appeared just as good as Tennessee or Long Island University. Those two teams played in the Mid-Winters Sports Carnival at New Orleans during the Christmas holidays. Mark Cox, sports publicity director at Missouri, was of the opinion that Buescher was the best player on the Kansas team. He certainly was last night. Missouri's team this year seems to be one of the weakest aggravations that George Edwards has ever put on the floor. For the first six minutes of the game the Tigers failed to recover a single rebound and during the entire game the rangy Kansans controled the shots off the backboards. Although Charlie Black only scored nine points he played just as good if not better than he did against Oklahoma. His defense was the biggest improvement in his play. He knocked down shot after shot that Missouri attempted and was the outstanding rebounder on the floor. Ray Evans is at last starting to hit a good percentage of his shots. His defensive game last night was superb as usual and he also made two out of five field goal attempts. MISSOURI WEAK THIS YEAR Loren Mills, captain and defensive ace of the Bengal squad, was decidedly off in his shooting. After the first half when all but one of his long shots went astray, he refused to shoot with his usual consistency and passed the ball into Harvey most of the time. George Evans, the other Missouri guard, took the place of Mills as the long shot artist and sank three goals in the last half. Evans shoots with a peculiar wrist action which gives very little arch to the ball in its path toward the basket. Ed Matheny was the hottest Tiger during the first half but cooled completely in the last half when Ray Evans was guarding him. He continued to take as many shots but they were hurried and failed to find the basket. MISSOURI DOESN'T LIKE CARROLL Personal notes on the game: The refereeing in the game last night was the poorest seen this year. Both teams suffered from bad decisions. Black was especially fortunate as the refs were watching him closely on all plays. The Missouri crowd is probably the most rabid in the conference and they showed displeasure frequently. Parke Carroll was the recipient of most of their taunts. . . . Missouri tried the same out-of-bounds play which they pulled against Iowa State Saturday night. It didn't work though for Phog Allen had cautioned his players against it and the Tigers were completely covered. . . . Vance Hall scored 20 seconds before the end of the first half on a sleeper play under the basket after receiving a perfect pass from Ralph Miller. The Missourians booed loud and long when Mills drove in for a set-up and Miller laid on his back. Parke Carroll ruled that Mills had taken steps while driving in and the foul did not count, Kansas taking the ball out-of-bounds. . . The game developed into a rough and tumble affair just after the start of the second half and no scoring was done for the first four minutes: . . . Black scored nine points but played only 15 minutes. If he had played most of the game as he did against Oklahoma and kept up his same average as of last night he would have tallied 24 points, which would have practically equalled his offensive mark in the Sooner game. The Missouri crowd went wild with three minutes to go when long shots by the Tigers brought the score to 42 to 34. Their cheers were to no avail however as the Jayhawks put on the pressure to score six points while hold- (continued to page seven) Johnny "Thin-man" Buescher was the big gun in the attack as he sank seven field goals and one free throw. Five of his goals were long two-handed flip shots that swished the nets without touching the rim. His final two goals were scored on set-ups after intercepted passes. Forwards Score 24 Points The Jayhawkers displayed their best form of the season last night at Columbia when they raced to an early first-half lead over the Missouri Tigers and then coasted throughout the remainder of the game to a 48 to 34 decision. Buescher Leads Jayhawks In Downing Tigers, 48-34 Ralph Miller and Vance Hall were close upon the heels of Black as they scored eight and seven points respectively. Each player sank three field goals in the first half but were held to free throws in the last period. Helping Bisch were three Kansas forwards. Charlie Black, holder of a 25-point average from last week's Oklahoma game, fell off considerably in his scoring but this was partially accounted for by the number of minutes he played. Black scored two baskets in the first three and one-half minutes but with nine minutes gone he also had three fouls. He left the game at this point and didn't return until midway in the second half. He played six minutes of the second half, scoring two more baskets and a free throw before fouling out at the 14-minute mark with a total of 15 minutes playing time to his credit. Ed Mathey and Don Harvey led the Bengal attack with nine and seven points. Matheny, former Southwest High School flash from Kansas City, Mo., scored all of his points in the first half. Three of his goals were made on one-handed southpaw jump shots from the right side of the court, nearly back to the center line. Rav Evans Stars Defensively Harvey was the scrappingtest ballplayer on the Tiger squad. He broke up many Jayhawker passes and led the Tiger offensive by being the first man down the court. His three goals were all scored close in to the basket during the second half. Defensive ace of the game was the Jayhawkers' Ray Evans, sophomore guard. During the first half he held Don Harvey, Tiger forward who has been their leading scorer in the past several games, to one free throw. In the second half he Riggs Beats Kovacs In Pro Tennis Match To Take Lead on Tour Pittsburgh, Jan. 14.-(UP)-Bobby Riggs swept into first place in the standings of the Alexis Thompson professional tennis safari last night with a straight set victory over Frankie Kovacs. The two former stars of amateur tennis then teamed in a doubles match against the veteran pros, Don Budge and Fred Perry, but lost in three sets, 4-6; 6-4. In the opening singles match Budge won over Perry, 6-3; 6-3. Riggs took Kovacs 6-2 in the first set but had to extend himself to win the second, 8-6. SPECIAL SALE!

Ray Evans, sophomore guard, last night held Don Harvey to one free throw in the first half and held Ed Matheny scoreless in the last half as the Jayhawkers trimmed Missouri 48 to 34. LAMBAS 20 switched over to cover Matheny and held him scorelell after the Southwest star had totaled nine points in the first period. Black started the scoring for Kansas by putting in his favorite one-handed shot from the free-throw line. Buescher then started his scoring for the evening by sinking one of his long shots from the side. The scoring was further distributed as Ray Evans connected on a set shot from the side. Black followed this with a tip-in and the Jayhawks led 8 to 0 with less than four minutes played. The game changed completely at this point, however, as the Missourians tallied seven points on the goals by Matheny, one by Mills, and a charity shot by Harvey. The Jayhawks took time-out and then came back strong. Buescher and T.

Members of both teams played spectacular ball, and kept a good-sized crowd that gathered to view the contest cheering so loudly that players had difficulty hearing the officials' whistles. Sig Alph's took an early lead of 5 to 2, which they held until Al Hecht and Junius Penny brought the count back to five-all. Then Sig Alph's Lynn Williams, Ken Winters, and Frank Gage raised the score to 13 to 7 in their favor, and retained the lead until the end of the first half, at which time the score read 19 to 13. S.A.E. Newman began to close up the gap after play resumed, and finally Hecht brought the count to 19-19 with a field goal. Scoring was neck and neck from then on, with neither team able to get more than a few points ahead. Sig Alph led 23 to 22 as the battle went into the closing minutes, in which Penny and Frank Rengel tossed in a bucket apiece and made the final score read 26 to 23 for Newman I. Hambric Makes 16 Points Seven Phi Gam's hit the basket for points in a 42 to 15 Fiji victory over Delta Chi. Roscoe Hambric and Larry McSpadden, Phi Gam intramural veterans, added 16 and 70 points respectively to their team's total score, and sparked the offensive which found them 27 points ahead at the final bell. Fiji's turned on the heat early in the contest, and at the half were leading 21 to 6. Delta Chi managed to look better in the third quarter, but was too far behind to give last year's champs a serious scare. Standout for Delta Chi was Ed Andresevic, former Wyandotte High School star, who garnered 9 of his squad's 15 points. Phi Psi's Down Acacia Acacia's staged a valiant but unsuccessful attempted comeback in their game with Phi Psi, but were finally defeated 39 to 20. Phi Psi forwards Bill Hodge and Clay Kyle went to town in a scoring spree in the first two periods, and found their team leading 18 to 4 at the half. Then Acacia forwards Ned Martin and Dwayne Adams led an attempt to even up the score in the first half, only to have it nipped in the bud by the Phi Psi defense department consisting of Steve "Torpedo" Meade and John Glover. Rock Chalk staged a surprise ending to squeeze out a 31 to 29 victory over Newman III in another of Wednesday's "A" games. The halftime bell found the Newmans leading 15 to 10 after two slow and dull periods of play. But a determined Rock Chalf five closed up the lead in the second half, and a field goal by John Reber in the closing seconds of the contest gave them the two-point victory, Orville Kretzmier, of Rock Chalk, and Fuller of Newman tied for scoring honors with 10 apiece. Fiji's Win Second Game In the "B" divisions, Phi Gamma Delta "B" kept up its percentage of 1.000 by defeating A.T.O. "B" 33 to 17. Eight Fiji's contributed at least one point to their team's total score in this contest, while A.T.O. Bob Martindale was leading scorer for his delegation with 7 points.

Sigma Nu's Fall Again Sig Ep "B", which enjoyed a shaky season so far this year, took matters well in hand last night to defeat Sigma Nu "B" 49 to 13. A hard-playing set of Sig Ep guards squelched Sigma Nu offensive attempts again and again, while the scoring department, led by Bill Burt, piled up the score. Burt chalked up a total of 22 points, all from action. He didn't have an opportunity to attempt a free throw all evening.

The Jayhawks have defeated Oklahoma 54-32 at home and Missouri on the $ \textcircled{2} $ In comparison of scores against Missouri, Kansas holds the edge over Nebraska. While Kansas has not engaged Kansas State, the Jayhawks have drubbed a team, Oklahoma, which downed the Wildcats. Hence, in using Kansas State as a medium of comparison Kansas shows another advantage over the Huskers. In last year's Jayhawk-Husker basketball fray at Lincoln, Kansas came off the winner 55-53 in a tight game. Howard "Rope" Engleman led the Kansas attack with 24 points. Sid Held, last season's all-Big Six Husker guard, matched Engleman's scoring splurge. Held returns with this year's Nebraska team along with five other letter men—John Fitzgibbon, John Thompson, Les Livingston, Hartman Goetze, and Max Young.

St. PAGE SIX UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY, JANUARY 15, 1942 The KANSAN Comments... Industry Turning Santa Claus Recently fifteen American food manufacturers pooled a million dollars to start a nonprofit research laboratory aimed at the study of foods people should eat. At the head of this Nutritions Foundation is Karl Taylor Compton, president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Said Dr. Compton, "It is my hope that this foundation may be an example and pattern of what an industrial group can do when it devotes a portion of its energies and resources to a sincere effort to help humanity without thought of self-interest . . . and by so doing it will, in the long run have well served its own interests." This is by no means the only unselfish act that business has performed. A Nebraska power company, after using some fifteen salesmen for a short time, felt that these men merited steady employment. Unable to use them any more itself, the company paid for announcements over the local radio station, and for a quarter-page ad which listed the name, address, telephone number, and qualifications of these salesmen. Within a week every one had a new job. The Phillips Petroleum company meets its obligation to society by giving scholarships to gifted children of its employees. Sears, Roebuck and Company, under its Cow-Hog-Hen program, gave pure-bred stock to 2,240 boys and girls in eleven southern states, and each recipient was pledged to turn over one of the "first-born" of his stock to be further distributed among other boys and girls. The idea behind this program is to induce diversification among the one-crop farmers of our southern regions. There are still other examples of genuine effort on the part of business organizations, without thought of remuneration, to make life easier and more livable for its employees and patrons. No doubt such generosity will cause people to blink and ascribe some ulterior motive to the action. Nevertheless, there seems to be a strong trend toward business becoming more humane. Some writers attribute this better understanding of business management to the dark days of the depression. At any rate, more and more companies are learning that it is possible to have a business mind and also a soul. Rumor has it that the Japanese cabinet resigned when it learned that Joe Louis joined our armed forces. Native Son “Breathes there a man with soul so dead . . .” Yes, traitors, deserters, the ill-advised and misinformed, sometime in their lives always have and always will come to the realization that home ties are stronger than foreign ties. Benedict Arnold, our outstanding Revolutionary traitor, requested that he be allowed to die in his old American uniform. Last week, misguided Charles A. Lindbergh offered his services to the army air corps from which he resigned last April. He, too, has expressed his desire to die, if necessary, in his country's uniform. Until Pearl Harbor, Lindbergh was practically "a man without a country." England shunned him; America tolerated him; Germany welcomed him, but he knew better. Last week a pathetic Lone Eagle acknowledged that "this is my own, my native land," and re-enlisted in the service for the defense of his native land which he once asserted was already beaten. He was a colonel when he resigned from the air corps—he will re-enter as a colonel. Aviation, not international politics, made Lindbergh a national hero. Only aviation can redeem him in the eyes of his crest-fallen admirers. International politics wreck many national heroes who try to play the game. He is to be regarded in the same light with the country bumpkin who was taken in by the city slickers.—M.H.

Rock Chalk Talk DEAN OSTRUM In the mood last evening after dinner for a few hot licks on his trumpet, Delta Chi prexy Charlie Grutzemacher called pledge Leo Doobin into the chapter house living room. "Run up to my room, Leo," Charlie ordered, "and bring down my cornet and mutes." "Sure." obedient Leo muttered and dashed up after them. In a few seconds Doobin reappeared and handed Grutzemacher the January issue of Coronet. "Here's the magazine, sir," Leo added, "but I'll be darned if I could find that bag of nuts!" Alpha Chi actives got quite a jolt the other night when pledges Mary Louise Isrig and Frances Tucker dashed down for dinner and announced that they were open for congratulations. The two explained that everyone else seemed to be getting engaged, and they just took for granted it would be all right if they did. The diamond rings they were flashing were purchased the same afternoon at a local five-and-ten. Financial wizard Norris Fiedler, Tennessee Club, is rightfully proud of his latest manipulation.

So the Bell System is helping to school Signal Corps men in practically every phase of telephone construction, operation and maintenance.

They're setting up telephone systems for new camps, bases and factories--handling an enormous volume of calls needed to coordinate the Nation's war effort.

Riley Team Include Dick Harp Ft. Riley—(Special)—Calling man power into service from all types of skills and activities, the army at Ft. Riley has added the basketball skill of Dick Harp graduate in 1940, to its swelling ranks. Private Harp played guard on the University basketball squad which reached the final play-offs in the N.C.A.A. tournament. He was rated all-American, made all Big Six ratings through three varsity seasons, and was a member of the two conference cage championship clubs. Harp will participate in state basketball competition on the team formed at the cavalry replacement training center, which is built around a nucleus of college stars. From the University of Michigan comes Pvt. Fred Trosko. As all-conference forward at Nebraska State two years, Col. Ed Nitz also figures prominently on the team. BUESCHER LEADS---ing the Bengals scoreless for the rest of the game. . . . The game was extremely fast with both teams employing a fast break. This type of offensive attack backfired several times when an opposing player would be late getting back down the court and would come up from behind to steal the ball. In the next five minutes the Kansans counted 13 points against four for Missouri. Hall, Miller, and Buescher each got two field goals. The Missouri scoring was done by Matheny on a field goal and free throw a gift shot by Ross Burns. P. Hunter sank goals to make the score read 12 to 7 at the ten-minute mark. During the last five minutes of the first half the teams played on an even basis. Goals by Miller and Hall for Kansas were matched by Matheny and Constantz for Missouri. The half-time score vave the Jayhawks a 28 to 14 lead. The Jayhawkers slowed down considerably in the last half and were content to hold their lead. For the first nine minutes of this period the Kansans were held to three points, a long swisher by Buescher and a free throw by Sollenberger.

Black entered the game at this point for Kansas and scored (continued from page four) Bruce Drake, Oklahoma basketball coach, flew from Oklahoma City to scout the game. The Sooners play at Columbia Monday night. Drake said, "Kansas has a fine, well balanced team. Every man is a potential scorer." . . . Harry Smith, line coach of the Missouri football team, thought that Ohio State was the toughest team the Tigers played all year. He said the day for the Fordham-Missouri game was worse than the Kansas-Missouri day this fall. Steve Filipowicz, Fordham halfback, was the biggest thorn to the Tigers. Instead of staying back in his position to wait for any man floating wide for a lateral, he would crash through the Bengals seven-man line and knock down the ball carrier before the play had a chance to get started. ROCK CHALK TALK--five points to send Kansas out in front with another comfortable lead. (continued from page six) It seems that Norris succeeded in getting a goodly number of Tennessee clubbers to subscribe to his Louis-Baer fight pool Friday night and ended up with all the winners in his own pocket. The "settlement" occurred after Norris found out that subscriber Don Maison had won. The wizard smiled slyly at Don, confiscated the pot, and tore up one of Maison's old I.O.U.'s. Sigma Nu pledges had been warned several times about sleeping in the library, and so when active Bob Fairchild walked in on the boys the other morning and found one sound asleep at the fraternity study table, the going looked plenty rough for someone. Quietly slipping up behind the slumped over figure, Bob tapped the sleeper on the arm, awakened him, and said sternly, "See me in my room after lunch!" Phi Gam pledge Frank Coulter rubbed his eyes, squinted at the intruder gave a relieved sigh, smiled, and went back to sleep. It wasn't Bob's fault the Phi Gam's had an overflow this year.

President Threatens Price Control Veto Washington, — (UP) — The implied threat of a presidential veto of pending price control legislation weakened the Senate farm bloc's attempt to get preferential treatment for agricultural products. President Roosevelt, continuing his active participation in shaping the legislation that has been before Congress since last summer, also reminded two of his top officials who have been arguing about joint authority over farm prices: "I can fire either one of them." "I can fire either one of them." Mr. Roosevelt allowed direct quotation of his press conference statement involving Price Administrator Leon Henderson and Secretary of Agriculture Claude R. Wickard. Wickard, opposing the President's views on pending price control legislation, wants veto power over any ceilings Henderson might set over farm product prices. Senate - House conferees have scheduled a meeting tomorrow to begin work on a compromise between the differing versions passed by the Senate and House. Mr. Roosevelt left no doubt where he stands on the pending bills. He told a press conference late yesterday that the Senate version, with its farm bloc amendments, might be described as a bill to compel inflation rather than combat it. Requires Wickard's Consenti The Senate bill would require Henderson to get Wickard's consent before fixing price ceilings on farm products and, in addition, would prevent the fixing of any ceilings below a level equivalent to about 100 per cent of present parity. Mr. Roosevelt described the former provisions as thoroughly unsound and the latter as more likely to contribute to inflation than anything he knew of. He contended that it would lead to a rise in the price of farm products that would bring demands for wage increases in industry, thus starting an upward price spiral which in the long run would be expensive to farmers as well as to the rest of the country. The amendment on farm price ceilings was sponsored by Sen. Joseph C. O'Mahoney. In a statement issued after the President's press conference, O'Mahoney said that although hit bore his name the amendment was drafted by farm organizations. He said the President's statement must have been based on "unjustifiable headlines of certain metropolitan newspapers, the editors of which do not understand the farm problem or the technicalities of parity . . ." "I know that it is the practice to refer to the members of congress as 'politicians' and to attribute to them low motives and lack of knowledge," he said, "but the members of the Senate actually are not children and 55 of them—a clear majority—voted that the economic status of one-fourth of the entire population (farmers) need not and should not be jeopardized by the price control bill." Asked whether he would veto the bill if it retained the farm bloc provisions, Mr. Roosevelt replied that he does not think of things like that until Congress has completed action. Washington—(UP) —Private industry today pooled patents and scientific skills to answer the government's demands that synthetic rubber production be stepped up within 18 months to a rate of 400.-000 tons a year -equal to about half of the United States total rubber consumption in 1941. Synthetic Rubber Production To Climb High Government defense agencies also moved to increase supplies of four other strategic war materials-tin, copper, lead and zinc. Copper, lead and zinc mines were offered premium prices to increase production. Federal Loan Administrator Jesse H. Jones said the expanded synthetic productions, in addition to stocks of raw and reclaimed rubber, should take care of war and civilian needs on a "reduced scale." The public was warned that the expansion of the synthetic rubber industry does not mean that there is any prospect of lifting the rationing of tires to civilians in the near future. He said civilian demand for tires probably would decrease because of the ban on production of automobiles. The reconstruction finance corporation will furnish the major part of the $400,000,000 for new plant construction in the government's program for increasing the output of synthetic rubber. Jones said. "Most of the major rubber and oil companies already working in this field" will participate in increasing the production of synthetic rubber. They include Goodrich, U. S. Rubber, Firestone and Goodyear Rubber Companies; Gulf Refining, Phillips Petroleum, Shell, Sinclair, Humble, Texas, Standard of New Jersey and Standard of Louisiana The new plants probably will be Oil Companies. THURSDAY, JANUARY 15, 1947 The new plants probably will be built near present ones of the companies, Jones said. The companies will cooperate in the new program.

The fact that Clement was a freshman and new on the Hill, Douce said today, influenced the Court's decision. Court Warns Convicted Faq Violator In other cases, students have been fined. The maximum penalty for conviction under this law is either expulsion from school for a period of time or loss of credit hours. Charles Clement was sentenced to a 30-day suspension from the University yesterday afternoon by the Student Supreme Court after he was convicted of violating University smoking regulations in the lobby of Watson library. The sentence itself was suspended, however, on the stipulation that it automatically go into effect on second conviction. Clement is a freshman. The trial lasted only 10 minutes. The defendant pleaded guilty, but "unintentionally so." He said that he was on his way out of the library when he met a friend just inside the door, and without thinking, lighted a cigarette as he stopped to talk. Student Was Cooperative He had been there about a minute, Clement said, when C. M. Baker, director of libraries, walked by and told him of the smoking ban. After giving Baker his name and address, he immediately left the building. The verdict was reached by the four justices who heard the case, Bill Douce, Chad Case, Sam Freeman, and Dave Prager. Douce was acting chief justice in the absence of Clyde Singer. Baker, who was the only witness at the trial, corroborated Clement's statements, adding that the student was very cooperative in the matter. The outcome yesterday was almost identical to that of the first Supreme Court trial under the smoking law, which took place on Feb. 22,1940.At that time three students were given sentences of 30-day expulsion,which were immediately suspended until second conviction. A Stiff Warning TRANSFERS Students who plan to transfer from one school of the University to another at the beginning of the second semester should apply for their transfers at the Registrar's office before January 30. James K. Hitt, Assistant Registrar. Hutchinson Wins Speech Competition Robert Hutchinson, college freshman, was awarded first prize in the "Kansas Problems" invitational contest in Fraser theater last night. Russell Baker, business senior, and Emily Jean Milam, college senior, took second and third places respectively. Hutchinson's speech, entitled "District No. 63," was a discussion of the rural education problems in Kansas and the inequality of educational opportunities. Baker's title was "Statesmanship from Kansas Plains." He stated that the way to obtain collective security for all men against international greed was through the right kind of statesmanship such as the kind Kansas used to have in the early days of her history. "The Short Ballot" was the title used by Miss Milam. She brought out that the ballot should be shortened so that the voter would know the people he was voting for. She recommended that minor officers of the state be appointed by the Governor. Governor Payne Ratner presided over the contest. An audience of approximately 400 persons attended the contest. Philharmonic To Play Twin Bill Monday The Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra, under the direction of Karl Krueger, will make its annual appearance on the Hill at two concerts Monday. The first concert, in the afternoon, will be primarily for Lawrence school children. The second concert will begin at 8:20 p.m. in Hoch auditorium. The Kansas City Philharmonic was organized eight years ago and at that time was the only organization of its kind between St. Louis and the Pacific coast. Under the direction of Krueger, a native Kansan, who received his master of arts degree from the University, the orchestra has risen to a position among the great orchestras of the world. Each year this Orchestra, in addition to playing a full season in Kansas City, makes a tour of the middlewest. The present tour includes Emporia, Manhattan, Concordia, and Lawrence. The concert comes as the second number in the University Concert Series for the school year. In its appearance last year the Philharmonic played to one of the largest crowds of the year. Tickets for the evening concert are now on sale at the Fine Arts office, the Round Corner drug store and the Bell music store. Tickets for the afternoon concert will be sold at the box office. Activity books will admit students to both. No Easter Letup; Schools Plan Long Summer Sessions (Full text of the Chancellor's message, "K. U. at War," appears on page 3.) It's full steam ahead on the Hill in preparation for war and civilian defense activities, with no time out even for Easter vacation. Med School Will Train More Nurses Heretofore, the School of Medicine has scheduled the start of only two classes a year—in September and February. Adding the new schedule in June, Doctor Wohl in- A dozen new war courses were added to the curriculum today for the second semester by administrative action and the Board of Regents' approval, the calendar speeded up so that it is now possible for a student using full summer sessions to graduate in two and a half years, and other co-operative items approved in response to requests by the Army, the Navy, and the Civil Service commission. Numerous War Courses The University will attempt to cooperate with the federal government in alleviating the serious shortage of nurses in the nation. Dr. H. R. Wahl, dean of the School of Medicine, announced today, in outlining plans for opening a new class in nursing at University hospitals, June 1. (continued to page eight) THE ORCHESTRA OF CHICAGO Under consideration also and awaiting approval by the federal government is a course in camouflage, which would be given by the department of design and painting. The Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra, under the direction of Karl Krueger, will present two concerts in Hoch auditorium under the auspices of the University Concert course. New courses added include those in meteorology, navigation, plane and spherical trigonometry, aerial photography, interpretation of aerial maps, military physics, military law, physical conditioning, nursing aides, first aid, nutrition, home nursing, occupational therapy—the beginning of a new four-year course for women in the department of design and the School of Medicine and an evening lecture course on "The World at War." Enrollment in the course, which will be open to the general public as well as to students, is expected to be the largest of any class ever held on Mt. Oread. Class sessions to deal with the whole background of and problems raised by the war, will be held on Thursday evenings. Course in Camouflage In addition to approving the war courses, the University Senate has approved the addition of a four-week summer session to be held after the regularly scheduled eight week term already established, as part of the speeding up process on Mt. Oread. Graduate in 2 $ \frac{1}{2} $ Years The Easter recess was abrogated, and Commencement set up one week to facilitate earlier opening of the summer terms.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 16, 1942 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE THREE I at 1124ormalery-outmmed K.U. At War By Chancellor Deane W. Malott We have been at war for more than a month. It has been a busy time, as the nation organizes its maximum strength and power for the defeat of the Axis powers. It has been a period of clarification, also as the nation's plans begin to fit together. The machinery is under way to provide an army of perhaps 5,000,000 men—not only those who can march and shoulder a gun, but for the most part technically trained men who can operate tanks, bombers, pursuit planes, destroyers, submarines, and battleships, men who are skilled in purchasing and other problems of supply, in meterology, in bacteriology, in physics, mathematics, chemistry, engineering and other sciences. An army of 5,000,000 men will require also an industrial army of some 70,000,000 persons, all working at top speed to provide the supplies and armament, the complicated machinery of a highly technical war. Already the bottleneck is emerging. We are short of trained men and women who can take positions of leadership in this, the greatest concerted action human beings have ever undertaken. Many branches of the service are requiring college degrees. Others are asking for special skills and techniques. I have asked the Assistant Registrar to prepare a bulletin covering the various branches of the service and the requirements for entrance. It will be available by Monday to those who request it. The President of the United States has again asked college men to continue their training as long as possible. At a meeting in Baltimore last week, 1,000 college and university presidents were asked to train more and more men, to do it more quickly and more thoroughly. We were asked this by the Army, the Navy, and by the Civil Service Commission. In response to these requests K.U. is adding a number of courses designed to give our students greater opportunity to be of service. I call your attention to the follow ing new courses, offered next sem ester: Meteorology Navigation Plane and Spherical Trigonometry Aerial Photography Interpretation of Aerial Maps Military Physics Military Law Physical Conditioning Nursing Aides First Aid Home Nursing Occupational Therapy the beginning of a new four-year course in the department of design and the School of Medicine. The World Wide Web The World at War Your faculty advisers will have full information for you about these courses, their prerequisites, and their objectives. I particularly call your attention to the course "A World at War," a lecture course meeting once a week in the evening, for one hour's credit, on the whole background of and problems raised by the war. These lectures will be given by various faculty members, and will constitute a distinguished series of lectures on this vital subject. cess in the second semester has been omitted and Commencement advanced one week to June second. This was done primarily to extend the regular summer school by the addition of a four-week session to the existing eight-week session, making twelve credit hours of summer work. By Senate action, the Easter rest Be Told Cause eng The Law School is planning a 15-week Summer Session, equivalent to a full semester of wrok, and the School of Engineering and Architecture and the School of Medicine are considering longer terms. A new class in Nursing will open June first. I urge all students to give serious consideration to these opportunities to speed up your education. It has always been possible through use of summer sessions to graduate in three years. Now it is possible for able students taking maximum work to graduate at mid-year in the Junior year. For many this means a college degree before military service, and for many others it means the saving of vital months in your preparation for national service. K. U. has given distinguished service to our nation in two other wars. It will do so again. What the future has in store, no one can tell. There is little indication that this will be a short war. Patience, courage, and hard work will be required of us all. It is the fundamental duty of K.U. men and women to train themselves for maximum leadership, for maximum understanding, and for maximum service. To this end the entire resources of the University are pledged, that by our deeds and words we may help this nation to pass through the flames of war and to emerge both victorious and free. Red Cross Hits $800 Goal " . . . and with this last donation the University faculty Red Cross drive plunged over the top, attaining its goal of $800," rejoiced drive chairman, Professor E. C. Buehler "But that isn't all" he continued jubilantly, "we're still going strong. We're going away over the top and the set goal." Chancellor Malott Invited to Speak At Hutchinson The final reports on the drives, both faculty and student, won't be ready for release until next week, but, as Professor Buehler put it, "everything is going swell and then some." Watson library will be open Sunday evenings from 7 until 10 o'clock for the remainder of the semester, C. M. Baker, director, announced today. Saturday schedules will remain the same.

Library Opens Sunday Nights Men's Glee Club Presents Musicale Twenty members of the Men's Glee Club will go on the air at 6 o'clock this evening over station KFKU for a 15-minute song fest. The songsters will vary the type of music from the school songs "Spirit of Kansas" and "I'm A Jayhawk" to old Scotch folk songs and a Creole song. The group will be under the direction of Prof. J. F. Wilkins. The reason for the selection of only 20 singers instead of the whole Men's Glee Club is that the studio will not hold the entire organization. The program will open with "I'm a Jayhawk," the school parp song, and will continue with "Tenebrae Factae Sunt" (Palestrina), "Interruped Serenade" Hayden), "Turn Ye to Me" (a Scotch Folk song), with a solo by Dean Lack, "Ay, Ay, Ay," (a Creole song), arranged by William Stickles, "Spirit of Kansas" (Jack Laffer), or "Crimson and Blue" (George Barlow Penny). 5:30 p.m. Fellowship hour for University students.

The collection has been moved from a small glass case to a very large one, now occupying a more prominent position on the main floor. Displayed with the coins is an identification bracelet with attached good-luck charms worn by Doctor Powell in World War I, when he was a captain in the American air corps. The unique collection of the world's moneys represents 58 foreign countries, the United States and the Philippines. Many of the coins are ancient. Some of these engravings depict various Bbilican scenes, while others are character engravings. Of the latter are the likenesses of King George III of England and his Queen, Charlotte. The north gallery on the second floor of the museum, formerly occupied by the water colored paintings of Prof. Joseph Kellogg, now displays a series of 25 eighteenth century engravings. The water colors of Professor Kelogg are moved to the south gallery. Wesley Foundation will sponsor a skating party this evening at 9:45 o'clock at the Roller-drome, for members and friends.

FRIDAY. JANUARY 16, 1942 Sportin' Around by Chuck Elliott The announcement by the University athletic department that baseball would be abolished completely this spring has brought many reverberations on as well as off the Campus. A few years ago the same announcement would not have caused a single murmur among the students on the Hill. But this year it is different—for several reasons. Last spring was the first time in many years that K.U. presented a baseball team that was worthy of representing the school in fast competition. They didn't too well. In fact, they lost more games than they won. But they did show spirit, they were entertaining, they never gave up, and above all, they showed definite promise. ABOLISHMENT CONFLICTS WITH STUDENT MORALE This year prospects are even better for a good nine. Many of the best players are returning and they will be even better this spring with a full season of ball behind them. Last year the majority of the players were young. Many of them had not played baseball for several years. Even juniors and seniors came out for the team last year because they felt the new spirit which was present on the diamond. Most of these same players will be back and more freshman players will be moving up to the Varsity this spring than in any year during the past decade. This in itself should provide a better team. But with the recent ruling by the athletic department it appears that these players will be deprived of their opportunity to play the national game. And this is what seems so inconsistent. During critical times such as these it is the intent of all to keep and further a high morale. The national government has stated in Congress that it will do nothing to curtail major league activity for it is deemed essential to the well-being of the American citizens. And yet our athletic powers-that-be have seen fit to abolish the sport completely. This appears unfair both to the would-be players and to the students of the University. It is a definite fact that many athletes attend school just to participate in their favorite sport. Although this may sound strange in reference to K.U.'s baseball team it still applies for there are certain players in school now who are here for the main purpose of playing baseball. It is also unfair to the students who must pay their entire activity fee and then not receive full benefits. Especially in emergency times such as this, it is important for athletes to be present for students to divert their minds from the seriousness of the world situation. Everyone realizes that a National Emergency exists but it will not help to cut out many outside activities. This serves only to further depress the average individual. MISSOURI ANXIOUS TO CONTINUE RELATIONSHIP It is well-known that the money for baseball exists at the present time in the athletic treasury. The reason for the curtailment of the sport is to save money, it is said. And yet the department is willing to allow a team to organize, practice, and schedule games at home (providing that no guarantees or expenses are given the visiting teams). The greatest expense would be involved with the first two items. It would not be necessary to put out any money for a coach because Phog Allen, who coached the team last year without any increase in salary, is present again to direct the team. The only expense which would be added by scheduling games with other schools would be the guarantees to visiting teams. This amount would run to only $50 a game for schools such as Kansas State and Missouri. It is even possible that part of this expense would be cut if a plan suggested by Hi Simmons, baseball coach at Missouri, is developed to its utmost. Simmons was very interested in maintaining the baseball relationship with Kansas. Although the four games with the Tigers have been canceled he said that Missouri was still holding the dates open with hopes that some play may be evolved by which the games could be played. "Three of the best games that we played last year were against the Jayhawkers," the Missouri coach commented. "In Knute Kresie, Kansas has one of the best pitchers in the Big Six," he continued, "and the young players who were playing their first season of college ball last year should reach their top form this spring. I also hear that there are many sophomores at Lawrence this year who have been playing independent ball in previous seasons. I know some of them and they should combine with the returning veterans to give K.U. one of the best teams in the conference." SIMMONS' PLANWOULD CUT EXPENSES (continued to page seven) Simmons suggested to this column Wednesday night that it might be possible for fraternities and dormitories to provide lodging for the visiting players. If the entire University would support the plan it would not prove an Jayhawk Chances Depend On Trip It's "make or break" for the Jayhawkers tomorrow night when they continue their road warfare in Big competition by tangling with the Nebraska Cornhuskers at Lincoln. Following this game the Kansans move up to Ames Monday night to face the team that will in all probability give them their toughest battle of the season, Following this game the night to face the team that will toughest battle of the season, the Iowa State Cyclones. This duo of games is reminiscent of last year's schedule which saw the Jayhawkers start out on this same northerly jaunt in the first week of March with their position at the top of the Big Six ladder seemingly impregnable. Kansas had won six games and lost just one with tilts remaining If Coach "Phog" Allen's crew can come through these two games unscratched then their chance for a Big Six title are bright indeed. But these games loom as the stumbling block if there is going to be one this year. Last Year Was No Snap PETER ROBERTS A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. Q. R. S. T. U. V. W. X. Y. Z.

PAGE SIX UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS FRIDAY, JANUARY 16, 1942 The KANSAN Comments... HAPPY BIRTHDAY Today, on the anniversary of its founding thirty years ago, The University Daily Kansan is proud of the fact that it more nearly coincides with the ideal pattern for a good daily newspaper; that it more nearly lives up to the tenents of ideal journalism than ever before in its history. It was in 1912 that the first daily student paper was issued on the campus. Not that the Kansan was new-it had existed under that name since 1889, and was published sporadically under the guidance of Prof. E. M. Hopkins. During its early years journalism classes were so small that recruits had to be mustered from the department of English. In 1903 Hopkins began teaching the first course in journalism at the University. At that time the Kansan was reorganized on the pattern of the Yale, Harvard, and Princeton papers. Classes were still small, and the going was tough at times, but by 1920, Deane Malott, now Chancellor of the University, then circulation manager of the Kansan, was able to say of the paper: "The circulation of the University Daily Kansan is greater this year than ever before. Copies of the Kansan are mailed daily to thirty-five states of the Union, the District of Columbia, Canada, England, the Philippine Islands, and Costa Rica." In 1926 Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalistic fraternity, began to make annual awards for outstanding work in various fields of journalism. The Kansan has acquired several of these awards; it won awards for editorials the last two years. As with any newspaper, the Kansan has had its dark moments. It has occasionally crawled out on a limb, only to find that the limb was rotten. The day never passes which is not marked by advice from professors of mathematics or history, voice or thermodynamics, on how to put out a good paper. It is accepted, in the main, with outward good cheer, and as soon forgotten as journalistic advice on how to tri-sect an angle. There are frequent minor demonstrations when some aspiring young reporter errs. But, on the whole, the Kansan can point to its history and to its present daily service with pride. It is a University institution, streamlined and up to the minute, seeking to be of service to readers, and desirous of the opportunity to make the same boasts on the day of its sixtieth anniversary. ---o--autos and rubber tires, we must be on constant guard against a black market here. Rumors are persistent, and possibly well founded, that some auto dealers, by deftly manipulating the speedometer, can turn a new car into a slightly used auto in good condition, available for sale at a reasonable amount over the regular price. We look forward to the day when American aviators can fly over Tokio and sing, "Any bombs today?" The Black Market Here In every country where the effects of war have caused the rationing of certain commodities to civilian purchasers, "black markets" have sprung up like poisonous mushrooms. Crafty individuals manage to find ways to beat the rationing system. Some are kind to their tax-ridden pocketbooks and resort to petty larceny. Scotland Yard reports that shoplifting in England has increased 25 per cent in the last year. In many cases these shoplifters simply net as middlemen and sell the stolen goods without asking to see the ration cards of the buyers. English law enforcement officers have broken up counterfeiting rings that have been printing identification and ration cards. Now that rationing has come to America in the form of strict limits on the sale of new Police have warned motorists to be especially careful against tire thefts. The shortage of rubber will undoubtedly create a demand that will result in a black market for tires unless action is taken now to offset such a development. On the other side of the picture, rumors of shortages that do not exist, such as the stories of sugar scarcity, are causing timid housewives to buy and hoard huge quantities. Enough of this unnecessary buying will tend to create an artificial shortage and thus a rationing system will be necessary. The government should release information regarding the supply of any commodity that becomes the subject of any bridge club rumors about scarcity.

Rock Chalk Talk DEAN OSTRUM We notice by the society page in this issue of the Kansan that the Pi Phi's have elected Rilla Ann Townsend and Dorothy Jean Harvey "censors" for the sorority for the coming semester. Attempts to determine the nature of their duties have all been in vain. Rock Chalk Cooperators Wallace Kunkel and Allen Cromley made a "gentleman's agreement" last week not to have any more dates until after finals. A five dollar fine imposed upon the first to violate the part was supposed to have clinched the deal. Night before last Kunkel and Virginia Fritz ran into Cromley and Pat Foster down at Wiedeman's. Moral of the story—those boys ain't gentlemen. Roommate Kappa pledges Jo Johnson, B. J. Hamilton, and Erma Lee Hasty have spent a harrowing week feuding with neighboring pledge sisters—Jean Hoffman, Martha Rayl, and Lois Anderson. The trouble started when Jo short-sheeted Martha's bed one night. Determined to get even, Martha and her roomies poured perfume and cologne in Jo's bed the next night. Yesterday morning Jean, Martha, and Lois found limburger cheese in their radiator when the heat came on and last night Jo, B. J., and Erma found their door knobs greased. With guests coming in for the Kappa winter formal tomorrow night, actives took the matter into their own hands this morning and called operations to a halt. Phi Delt Chuck Elliott says he had his biggest letdown of the year the other night when he heard the new recording, "I Said NO " Sig Ep Jim Bradley wanted to get down to Baker recently to see his Tri Delt girl friend and asked brother Jim Beers if he would provide the transportation. Jim agreed and so the two motored down. A letter to Bradley today from the little girl friend included a note to be delivered to Beers which began with "My dearest Jimmy." Bradley has decided to take the train or walk the next time he goes to Baker. Letter Gives Lowdown On Peruvian 'Heat' December 31, 1941 The following letter received by Miss Kathleen Doering, instructor in entomology, was written by a University graduate now an American army officer in Peru, Lieutenant Thompson Lawrence. Lieutenant Lawrence majored in entomology while at the University, receiving his A.B. degree in 1935 and M.M.A. degree in 1938. Hotel Maury Lima, Peru Casilla Correo: 1385 As you may have gathered, I bought myself a Spanish typewriter for Xmas. Living here is cheap and reasonably safe unless the Japanese decide to take the neighboring seaport of Talara for a base against the canal. My job, however, is not what would be recommended for the aged, infirm, or timorous. I am down here as one of the neutral military observers to keep a check on whether Peru and Ecuador are observing the treaty of Talara, and matters relating the war and peace between the two republics. Now, as never before, we need peace and cooperation among our Latin American sister nations. I got the job because I speak a little Spanish and am interested in such matters. I had rather expected to be called back to the zone after the incredible attack of the Japanese, but they apparently consider me more valuable down here. I am one of a commission of four American observers who scout the demilitarized zone between Peru and Ecuador along with four Argentinian observers and two Brazilians. Normally I work with one or the other of the Argentinians. Our reconnaissance takes us into places which, with the onset of the rains, became increasingly difficult and dangerous to travel, both from the slipperiness of the steep trails and from the mounting numbers of mosquitites. It's most unfortunate that the part of baggage containing my killing bottle has so far failed to arrive from Talara, having been long delayed in the port of Guayaquil, Ecuador. Perhaps when it arrives I shall have sufficient energy to make a sweeping net. I was unable because of the exigencies of space in the bomber I came to Quito on to bring my cellcotton. I thank God for the interest in the Latin peoples and language which enabled me to reach these strange and far-away places; to travel by canoe through the muddy mouths of estuaries where the sharks swirl away from the surprise of our bow, to travel by muleback with my whole being one tremendous toothache from the unaccustomed means of locomotion, while the tarantulas skitter away like mice from beneath the mules hooves and the toucans skirl among the brilliant bryophytes. It will be something to remember and tell about, riding the rims of the precipitous mountains and leaning out over mist-milky valleys in which the Grand Canon could be dropped, lost, and such, the vastness of them. Down here the insects are very much interested in me. Ticks of all sizes are not insects, but in the jungles many of them become very attached to the passerby. Especially the small ones must be killed with a cigarette before removing or a large ulcer is likely to develop around the head which otherwise remains in the skin. Quito is cool and very picturesque and the cheapest place in the world to live. Lima is a big, beautifully landscaped, modern city, and remarkably clean. You have to buy your water in both cities or drink beer or pop because the tap water is supposed to be contaminated. Likewise it is strongly (continued to page seven) PAGE SEVEN 6,1942 [ ] UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS at the Harvey FRIDAY, JANUARY 16, 1942 in vain, made a until the part y and na Lee pledge night. e and cheese and night, ed op- year ee his de the note e goes g, in- uate epson while l k aquil, Ives I make because I the bring in the en- and ea fes ayanoe aneose f es ayear travel in theotion,otion,voices bril- umber of the naming which appped them. very of all the very specially with a large dure in the esque child to and- kably water be to be engly Ask Early Enrollment For Reading Laboratory Students desiring to enroll in the reading laboratory and clinic course for next semester are requested to consult Professor Bert A. Nash, 18 Fraser, before the closing of the enrollment period on Feb.2. Nash stresses the point that, since no credit is given in the course, there will be no outside work attached to it. All the work will be done in the laboratory periods of the course, taking about two hours a week. The actual practice of the work can be applied to the regular studying of the student. clinic Nash points out that many students read slowly and yet fail to comprehend what they read. These students could be having their trouble from any number of defects such as bad eyesight, incorrect approach to reading, or a sluggish study organization. These persons could be aided by the clinic, primarily, in finding their difficulty, and, secondly, in clearing it up with a minimum of effort. Nash pointed out that the ability to read and to comprehend speedily is becoming more and more important, as college work is becoming more concentrated in keeping with the national war-time program. "All students, whether they are good readers or poor, are capable of reading much better—there is no limit to perfection," Nash said. Tests show that the average college student reads from 250 to 300 words a minute, while the above-average reader can read and comprehend as many as 750 or 1000 words a minute. In the reading and clinic course, the student who properly applies himself, can improve his reading speed and comprehension from 50 to 200 per cent. LETTER GIVES---imposition upon any group of individuals and would sustain the sport for the world. (continued from page stx) advised not to eat raw vegetables with the skins on. Ready made clothes are dear and hard to get. In Quito, Indians in native costumes (three tribes, mainly) are very common. In Lima there are less of them and they seem to be of one tribe. The white man's felt hat is an indispensable possession of both sexes. In Quito I have seen an Indian wearing two hats, apparently for no better reason than to show that he had that many, not because he was in the old-clothing trade. In Quito you wear autumn clothes all of the time. In Lima you may wear summer clothes this time of the year but it often becomes quite cool evenings and in winter it is as cold as at Quito. Peachy new year and a dandy last Christmas from SPORTIN' AROUND--imposition upon any group of individuals and would sustain the sport for the world. "Pete" Simmons was confident that organizations at Missouri would be more than willing to do all they could to help other schools of the conference. If lodging were provided for visiting players, this would eliminate the biggest item of expense in scheduling games. Transportation costs could be reduced sharply by having various members of the teams drive their own cars. With tire rationing a reality now, this might seem a serious situation but already members of last year's Jayhawker squad have offered to drive their cars to the out-of-town games. Certain members of the athletic board have voiced off-the-record statements favoring the continuation of baseball at the University. Yet when the board meets for its occasional meetings these opinions are forgotten and the members vote to do away with the sport. Either the board members should reconsider the issue and allow the activity to continue or they should stop building up players' hopes by telling them that they want the sport to remain and that they have definite hopes of its doing so. HENRY'S IN A JAM AGAIN ALEXANDRA BELL The screen's new Henry Aldrich, freckled Jimmy Lydon, gets into his usual pack of troubles when he goes into high school politics in Paramount's "Henry Aldrich for President," opening Today for 3 days at the Granada theater. Here he is with blonde June Preeser and Mary Anderson. Co-feature, "Secrets of the Lane Wolf," starring Warren William, Roger Clark and Ruth Ford. JAYHAWK CHANCES--- (continued from page four) in the conference this year. He was selected as a member of the all-conference team last year and is continuing at the same pace this year. He was Nebraska's leading scorer last year and ranked fourth in the conference with an average of 9.7 points a game. In the game against the Jayhawkers at Lincoln last year the six-foot-four senior cracked the basket for nine field goals and six free throws to tie Howard Engleman for high scoring honors. In two conference tilts this year he has scored 29 points to place second behind Kansas' Charlie Black. Other returning regulars from last year are at the forward positions. Two juniors have been holding the starting posts this year, John Thompson and John Fitzgibbon. However, senior Leslie Livingston has shown better scoring ability in recent games and is a likely starter at one forward berth. Sophomores Are Valuable Reserves At center for the Cornhuskers will be Hartman Goetze, only out-of-state player on the squad. He hails from St. Joseph. He has played all three positions during the past two years and has two letters to his credit. Starting at guard with Held will be Max Young, a six-foot, three-inch junior who played his high school ball at Bethany High in Lincoln. Supplementing this six-letterman group are several sophomores upon whom Coach Ad Lewandowski is depending considerably for relief work. Kenneth Elson was an all-state performer in high school at Curtis, Nebr., and is considered one of the finest prospects on the squad. Leading the guard hopes is Bob Heinzelman, sophomore star who hails from the championship-winning town of Falls City. He is tall, aggressive, and a good man under the basket. Lyle King is the leading substitute at center. He is a senior and has won minor letter awards for two years. WANT ADS GIRLS—Wager Hall-two vacancies for second semester. Room and board. 1345 Vermont.

Bigley is Traditional On the other hand, the Beta's appeared in the playoffs last season, and reached the semi-finals before being eliminated by Newman I. But past records have usually meant very little in this traditional rivalry, and the outcome of tonight's contest is unpredictable. Buck Thomas and Knute Kresie are slated to officiate the event. Rivalry is Traditional Acacia and Pfugerville, each with but one wn to their credit so far, met in a close contest last night which the Pfashes won 32 to 26. Pfugerville led 6 to 4 at the end of the first period, but Acacia Bill Kopp sparked a rally in the second quarter which found his team leading 16 to 10 at the half. Acacia held this lead until Jack Pattie and College Students ★★★ Enroll Early FRIDAY, JANUARY 16, 1942 On January 15, 16, 17 (a.m. only) 19 and 20, you should do the following: 1. Seniors should enroll for the spring semester by appointment at the College office. 2. All other students should see their advisors and work out their spring schedules. Read posters for details.—Paul B. Lawson, Dean, his Pflugerville teammates started a scoring offensive which tied the game up at 26-all; then the Pflashes put in three quick baskets to win the contest, with Bob Barnes sinking the final two points. High scorer for the game was Ned Martin, Acacia intramural standby, who chalked up 13 points. White star for Hall Hounds The Hell Hounds easily overcame Jayhawk Co-op to win 34 to 16 in last evening's other "A" game. White sank 12 points for the Hell Hounds to be high score man for the contest. Jayhawks used nine men in a desperate attempt to stop Hell Hound scoring, but failed to click for most of the game. White Stars for Hell Hound Bob Forgy and Earl Musser put in 18 points apiece as S. A. E. "B" triumphed over A. K. Psi "B" 50 to 14. All six members of the Sig Alph playing squad scored as the A. K. Psi's found themselves unable to check the onslaught. Teke "B" came out on the long end of a 28 to 19 score in a rough and tumble contest with Sig Ep "B". Officials called 30 foils in this ragged game in which most of the scoring was via the free throw route. Although all the Sig Ep's found the bucket, they couldn't hit it often enough, and trailed 7 to 15 at the half. T. K. E. Parker chalked up 14 points to be the outstanding offensive player.

The training courses for nurses run for 49 weeks through the year with only a three-week vacation period. The expansion move, Dr. Wahl said, is an attempt to help fill the national need for more nurses, occasioned largely by military demands and also the increased demand for public health nurses in social service programs. The University committee on nursing this week approved the plan to increase the period of registered nurses' training from two and a half to three years. Hospital authorities believed that the shorter period failed to allow the nurses to receive sufficient clinical training. The state boards of health of fifteen states had adopted a discriminatory policy against nurses who had been given their certificates in the two and a half year period and indicated that the ban would be removed with restoration of the additional period of training. One year of college training is required to enter the nurses training course.

No Cokes Hill Students Drink Water Because bottlers have been required by the government to return to their 1940 production levels to conserve sugar, students here on the Hill may be forced to take to drinking water instead of the usual bottled drinks. Various student hangouts on the Hill have had their soft drink supply limited according to their previous orders. "Bricks" has been limited to four cases of a favorite bottled drink for the remainder of the month. The supply of the Dine-a-Mite Inn is estimated to last only through the weekend. Some fraternity houses have even instigated the seniority rule in regard to rationing soft drinks. Bottlers have been forced to return to their 1940 production levels and since production in that year was smaller than in 1941, the supply of soft bottled drinks available in 1942 will be cut substantially. War Propaganda Course Offered Next Semester Two courses offered by the department of journalism have been remodeled to conform with the University's plans for more practical instructions on matters dealing with the war, it was announced Saturday. Prerequisites for enrolling in the Propaganda and Censorship course are the courses in General Psychology and Elementary Sociology. This course is designed to cover latest developments in propaganda and Both courses will be taught by Verdun R. Daste, instructor in journalism, who joined the college faculty last fall after serving in Washington, D.C., first with the Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and later with the War department. Daste was in charge of confidential information, reports and publications dealing with production of war materials. Earlier, he served on newspapers in New Orleans. He is a graduate of the University of Iowa, and has conducted research in propaganda techniques. The courses are Propaganda and Censorship, an advanced course open to all juniors, seniors and graduate students of the University, and Newspaper in Society, an introductory journalism course open to all students at the sophomore level or higher.

Although a substitute, he scored four field goals and one free throw as he replaced Max Young, junior guard who fouled out during the last half. Miller and Black Lead Offensive Continuing their brilliant display of basketball, the Kansas Jayhawkers last night swept aside another obstacle in their path to a Big Six title by swamping the Nebraska Cornhuskers 51 to 32 in the Coliseum at Lincoln. Ralph Miller proved to be the star of the game as he racked up 12 points on five field goals and two free throws. During the first half he was the main scoring threat for the Kansans as he consistently hit the bucket for points. Miller's performance is the more noteworthy because he was being guarded by Sid Held, all-conference guard last year of the Huskers. While scoring his 12 points, Miller also collaborated with Ray Evans in guarding Held during the game and holding him to one field goal and five free throws. The game was exceedingly rough and a trifle ragged throughout. Fifteen fouls were called against the Jayhawkers with four players, Miller, Black, Buescher, and Hunter, having three fouls registered against them. Thirteen fouls were called against the Nebraskans with Young leaving the game with four persons. By medium of the 15 Jayhawker fouls were the Cornhuskers able to gain the majority of their points. Fourteen free throws were made successfully to keep the Nebraskans within shouting distance of the speeding Jayhawks. Charlie Black led the Jayhawks in the last half after being unable to hit the basket during the first period. Black collected the majority of his 17 points in the last 20 minutes to place the Huskers farther behind. Only one player on the Nebraska squad was able to make more than one field goal. Bob Heinzelman entered the game mid-way in the first half and started shooting long shots. He connected four goals by this method before the game was over. Black maintained his 17-point average for conference play by sweeping by Young and Heinzelman for eight goals. This total with an added free-throw, combines with his 25-point splurge against Oklahoma and his nine points against Missouri to maintain his position at the top of the conference individual scores.

Krueger Studied Music Here On Fellowship The Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra's concert Monday evening should be of particular interest to Kansans, because they can call Karl Krueger their own. Born in Atchison, he has always regarded Kansas as his home and K.U. as his school. At the age of thirteen, Krueger was a church organist in his home town. He was soon given a fellowship at the University, where he was a pupil of the late Charles Sanford Skilton. To this day he attributes much of his success to Dr. Skilton's teachings. Before he was 20 years old, he entered a contest in which over five-hundred persons participated and won a position as organist in one of New York City's largest churches. Krueger was not only an organist, but a virtuoso on the cello. He toured Europe and South America as a cellist. However, Krueger was not content to be only an instrumentalist. He wanted to be a conductor. He loved music and believed that only as a conductor could he achieve the fullest success that music had to offer. His parents had different ideas, and insisted that he study law. So to please them, he studied law at the University of Heidelberg and of Vienna. He received his degree, then promptly returned to music. He had the great fortune to study with Arthur Nikisch, then Europe's foremost conductor. Of all his pupils, Nikisch predicted success only for Krueger. Kruger next conducted orchestras throughout Europe, but always had a desire to return to the United States. He first went to Seattle, where he stayed for six years to build a fine symphony orchestra. However, it was the middle-west that he loved, so he came to Kansas City in 1933, a depression year, to start a symphony orchestra in a city that had known no such musical organization. It's success has been phenomenal. In spite of acute financial shortages, the orchestra has won a place among the leading orchestras of the land. Krueger has always been closely connected with school and university work, always fond of students. Through his friendship with students in the U. of Kansas, he was initiated into Sigma Phi Epsilon last June as an honorary member. After going through the formal initiation services he said, "Boys it makes me feel like a schoolboy again."

The previous spring, the latter had elected a majority of Dave Whitney--the Council and that no vacancy is created. No Vacancy I will do my best. ... on and off MSC 11 members to the MSC with Bob McKay as president. When McKay did not return to school, the vicepresident, Dave Watermulder, ascended to the vacant presidency. Pachacamac selected Dave Whitney to take Watermulder's place as college representative. But P.S.G.L. was buzzing. At the first meeting of the year, Sept. 23, they defied Whitney's right to sit on the Council. They claimed the constitution stated that in case the president-elect of the Council fails to return to school, an acting president shall be selected from within Jim Burdge--- 1930 ... new dance manager For a week, the battle raged. I was carried to the Student Supreme Court. The Court referred it to a special faculty committee composed of Professor E. E. Kester, Prof. J. B. Smith, and Prof. H. B. Chubb. On Saturday afternoon, Sept. 25, the three went into a three-hour session with the figureheads of each party and thrashed out the entire situation. That night they met again and declared only that a seat, the office of president was vacant. Whether there was an actual vacancy on the Council was referred again to the Supreme Court. This body was composed of Chad Case and Bob Marietta, P.S.G.L. representatives, and Bill Hunzicker and Bill Douce, of the Pachacamac party. These four selected Tom Singer as their chief justice, met within a week and decreed that there was no vacancy and, therefore, Whitney could not be placed on the Council. Watermulder In Dave Watermulder became acting president while still holding his vote as college representative. This caused a split in Council power, each party holding ten seats. Bob McKay--for the purpose of mediating student labor disputes. There had long been discussion concerning the possibility of Council action in this regard, and the bill was seen by political leaders as the answer to a definite need for regulation and investigation of working conditions of University students. STANLEY BROOKS Schuerman Heads Freshmen The P.S.G.L. party won, with great majorities, the offices of president and treasurer of the freshman class. Ty Schuerman of Salina defeated Dudley Hanstine, Fredonia, for the presidency, and Bill Kiene, Topeka, won over John Bradley, Kansas That is why the freshman election became so important. Each party knew that if they could capture the two freshman seats on the Council, the majority would be theirs. Despite the fact that the preferential ballot used in Hill elections makes that almost impossible, P.S.G.L. and Pachacamac both set out to do it. Campaigning was hottest seen in several years in a freshman election. . . . drafted MSC president P. S.G.L. came very near to getting both those Council seats. Their candidate, Junius Penny, Lawrence, rode into office far ahead of the other three. George Worrell, Kansas City, the other P.S.G.L. man, was only eight votes short for the second position. Joe Stryker, Fredonia, nosed him out. Laird Campbell, Wichita, was the other Pachacamac candidate. City, Mo., for the treasurer's post. Thus, the Council membership remained even, eleven votes for each party. Labor Bill Passes In the meantime, the MSC was considering a bill which would establish a labor board on the Hill Dave Watermulder--- CARLOS MAYORA . . . fills McKay's shoes The bill was passed without interparty dissension. The Council sent it to Chancellor Deane Malott for his signature, which makes all Council bills official. The Chancellor refused to sign the bill because of the provision in it that the findings of the board be made public. He sent the measure back to the Council for possible revision. As yet, no further action has been taken. In connection with the memorable holiday strike Nov. 17, the MSC stuck its neck out, saved it by the simple process of drawing it in again, and then settled down to do something constructive as representatives of the students. Feeling was high among the students that Monday after the victory in the Kansas-Kansas State football game. They wanted a holiday. The administration did not seem favorable. A special meeting of the M.S.C and W.S.G.A. was called for 9 o'clock in the morning. An all-school victory convocation was scheduled for 9:30. The two councils adopted a resolution that a holiday would be observed, to be read at the convocation. The Chancellor discovered the plan and immediately LAWRENCE Business College Lawrence, Kansas Intensive training in: put a stop to it. An impromptu meeting of the two Councils was held backstage during the rally, and the resolution was repealed. Unity Committee Organized The students took a holiday anyway, at various occasions chanting jibes at the Chancellor and once burning him in effigy. Comptometry, Penmanship, Shorthand, Typing, Accounting, Machine Bookkeeping, The following night, the M.S.C. and W.S.G.A. met again and decided to attempt to reach an understanding with the administration concerning the strike against classes. A "Unity Committee" of seven representative students and three faculty members was appointed to meet for the purpose of determining what action should be taken by the Councils as representatives of the students. The committee met, discussed the matter, and decided that the administration should receive an apology for "certain acts which 95 per cent of the students did not endorse," such as the burning in effigy. Councils Apologize School at 7th & La. Sts. Phone 894 The apology was made by both Councils. The committee is still in operation, considering more closely relationships of the faculty and administration with the students. The M.S.C., meanwhile, was considering another important measure a bill designed to limit the extra-curricular activities of men students of the University. The bill called for a point system whereby each Hill activity in which men participate would be given a certain number of points, and a definite limit placed on the number of points allowed each student. The bill patterned the systems of other Universities. Opposition to the passage of this measure developed in both Pachacamac and P.S.G.L. parties. While discussing the bill during the meeting of December 8, this opposition became all too evident, and by mutual agreement, the bill was killed. Wrangle Over Voting Hours It was at this meeting that political wrangling broke out once again on the Council. F.S.G.L. had introduced an amendment to the constitution calling for an extension of voting hours on Hill election days from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. (continued to page seven) Discussion on the amendment digressed directly to political fines.

PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS 1 SUNDAY, JANUARY 18, 1942 --- Sportin' Around by Chuck Elliott During the past several weeks there have been many rumors about this school or that school quitting its conference to go independent or to join another league. The past few days however have seen an end to most of these rumors. Latest to admit that everything is all right is Denver University. At the close of the football season they were considerably disturbed by the Big Seven ruling that all future football games must be scheduled on a home-and-home basis. SCHOOLS ARE GETTING PACIFIED This affected Denver particularly because bigger crowds always attended games in Denver than in any other town in the conference. Another peeve of the Pioneers was that their pet idea, a training table for football players, was voted down by the conference athletic fathers. In our own conference Nebraska and Oklahoma have often been linked with other conferences. When Nebraska was stacked with power and had blue chips to spare, there was talk of the Huskers replacing Chicago in the Big Ten. However, Chicago dropped out of the Big Ten in football and no attempt was made to have a replacement. This year the report gained prominence again. Especially when Denver and Colorado of the Big Seven were clamoring for memberships in our conference. The plan of the hour was to have Nebraska join the Big Ten, Oklahoma join the Southwest Conference, and have these two vacancies filled by Denver and Colorado. Major Lawrence M. "Biff" Jones spiked any rumors that Nebraska was contemplating a change by saying he didn't "know anything about it." "Of course," he continued, "I might not know all about it, but I really don't think it's true." That sounds good enough for this column for if anyone should know of a proposed change it would be the school's athletic director. As for Oklahoma joining the Southwest Conference, it is very unlikely. That conference has a ruling that only seven schools are allowed membership (the present number competing) and a unanimous vote is required to drop one member or admit another. For the present at least, the Big Six conference seems safe enough with its present membership. It is much more compact than any proposed league could possibly be and the schools are fairly evenly divided with respect to athletic strength. Of course, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Missouri are the trump cards in the Fall but during the present basketball season Iowa State and Kansas seem to be evening this score somewhat by leading the league. Kansas State, the sixth school, is the up-and-down team with a good football team to press the leaders one year and a cocky little basketball crew to register upsets the next year. AFTER-MATHS OF THE TUCKER CASE Now that the daily shouting concerning the Gerald Tucker case has ceased, it might be well to look about and see what was gained by the ruckus. Sports writers throughout the country are pretty well agreed that Coach "Phog" Allen is a man to speak his own mind. He has many enemies but he also has gained many friends. And a number of his enemies admit that they respect him for his courage. But it is not the personal opinion that people have of Allen that is important. It is the opinion they have of the University of Kansas. The outburst has awakened many graduates of K.U. to the realization that they still have a warm spot in their hearts for their Alma Mater. Evidence of this is seen in the remarks made by a Wichita man who is a graduate of the University. He suggests a "Keep Kansas Athletes in Kansas" organization. This plan could either be formulated to include just those business men and sports fans who are interested in seeing K.U. get its share of athletes or it could be enlarged to include people interested, not merely in one school, but in all Kansas colleges. He elaborates by pointing out a well known fact that many Kansas athletes go to Oklahoma, Oklahoma Aggies, Tulsa, and many other schools out-of-state. "It wouldn't take a lot to keep them in Kansas," he continues. "Other states do it and it works. Every year the two largest Oklahoma schools move heaven and earth to keep Oklahoma athletes in that state. Why not do the same in Kansas?" This same K.U. grad goes on to say, remarks Wade Doughty of the Wichita Beacon, that regardless of what Allen may occasionally do that appears to be wrong, he at least is doing SOMETHING. He's a fighter and every time he gets into a controversy, someone suffers and the rest of the world knows Kansas has at least one man who'll fight for his rights as he sees them. PHOG'S BOYS COME BACK Odds and ends: It seemed like old home-week at varsity basketball practice Friday. Three former members of "Phog's" teams were visitors, Ray Ebling was over from Kansas City where he is working in the claims department of the Phillips 66. He is a former All-American while in school here in 1934, '35, and '36 and gained the same fame while playing for the Phillips team. Howard "Rope" Engleman was another on-looker. He was en route to Kansas City where he played last night with his Phillips 66 teammates in a game against the all-stars of the Kansas City Naismith league. "Rope" thought that Ray Kinney of the Rice Owls is one of the best players he has ever seen. He believes the Owls should win the Southwest Conference without much trouble. Johnny Kline was the other former Jayhawker who was at practice. At present Johnny is in Hutchinson working for his father but he leaves Wednesday for Evanston where he will enter Northwestern University to start his training in the Naval Reserve. He enlisted under the V-7 plan. Cyclone Battle Will Be Tough For Jayhawks With a seven game winning streak behind them, the undefeated Iowa State Cyclones tangle with Forrest C. "Phog" Allen's travelling Jayhawkers at Ames tomorrow night. The Cyclones' 34-25 win over Missouri last week served notice in the Big Six that Iowa State is a contender for the conference title which the Cyclones shared last year with Kansas. It will be a teacher-pupil affair when Louis Menze's Cyclones meet Allen's Jayhawks. Menze learned his basketball under Allen at Warrensburg Teachers where he was captain and all-conference in basketball and football. Harris Is Former Star Three members of last eyar's Cyclone team which set down Kansas at Ames 41-29 will face the Jayhawks tomorrow night. Al Budolfson, Carol Schneider, and Leon Uknes played on the Iowa State team which tumbled Kansas into a Big Six co-championship last year. Budolfson, team captain and allBig Six forward last season, leads the Cyclones in early season scoring with 88 points. Paired with Budolfson at forward is Bob Harris. Harris didn't compete last year but was chosen all Big Six forward in 1939. He ranks second in scoring. ON BOB HARRIS Schneider Is Ace Guard Like the forwards, both guards are veterans. Uknes l廷ers last year and has shown increased scoring power this season. Schneider, the Cyclones' other starting guard, carries the height of the team. He towers skyward 6 feet 6 inches and has two varsity letters to his credit. The only inexperienced Iowa State starter is Rube Mickelson, center. He is a sophomore and shows promise as a scorer. Other Cyclones who will probably see action tomorrow night are Bob Hayes, Rollin Kuebler, Harle Damon, and George Harville. The Letter Box (Sports Editor's Note: All letters to the editor on any topic concerning athletics are invited. All letters will be subject to cutting or depleting by the editor if necessary). To the Sports Editor: Much has been said in regard to keeping the University boys in condition for national defense. We have heard rumors of an extensive athletic program, but that is as far as things have gone. We "on the Hill" are a great hand to talk, but are slow on action. There is a fine auditorium in Marvin Hall, which would provide a good basketball court and gym. We are sure that the engineers would approve of the plan. The new R.O.T.C. building would provide additional facilities. Surely the patriotic army officials would not object to such a worthy plan. Both of these buildings would be a help in relieving the crowded Robinson gymnasium. We have over one thousand boys who are interested in participating in athletics, but are unable to do so because the facilities are not available at all, or at the proper hours. At present 450 men or 74 teams are competing in intramural basketball. These boys love their basketball well enough that they cut classes on Saturday, play in scheduled games as late at 11:30 p.m., and even practice beyond midnight (if the night watchman doesn't kick them out). We are sorry that we have to complain, but when our football and baseball grounds are plowed up, and when the tennis players have to wait a week for the courts to dry, and when the handballers have to stumble over the warped floors dodging the holes in the floor and the rain drops from above, we can hold in no longer. Actually, last fall it took nine weeks for each football team to play four games, and it also took nine weeks for each tennis team to play three matches. To top it all off, our intramural department is so short of funds that it can't even furnish the basketball boys with a stop watch that will stop. We are thinking of taking up the adding machine to calculate the time-outs. At present we find our boys getting their exercise by drinking cokes, playing bridge, plugging the marble machines, and "rolling the bones." There is nothing particularly wrong with these amusements, but that's not the way to keep our boys physically fit. We see no reason for spending a lot of money on a new gymnasium. Why don't we have more basketball courts? Why don't we have some all-weather tennis courts, handball courts, horseshoe pits, football and baseball fileds? The reason is that the athlete is a boy who seldom complains. He tries to make the best of what he has. If some of our patriotic gentlemen of authority would go to work on sports facilities, the boys might have something that they need.

PAGE FIVE 1942 Fiji's Roll Along As ATO's Tumble TOMORROW'S SCHEDULE 5:30—Blanks vs. Newman II; D.T.D. “C” vs. Kappa Sig “C” 7:00—Carruth vs. Newman III; Theta Tau vs. Acacia 8:00—Beta “B” vs. Phi Psi “B”; Beta vs. Delta Tau Delta 9:00—Sigma Chi “B” vs. Kappa Sig “B”; Rock Chalk vs. Crackerjack 10:00—Phi Delt vs. D.U.; D.T.D. “C” vs. Acacia “B” By BILL PORTER Alpha Tau Omega, although able to put up strong resistance for a while, proved no match for Phi Gamma Delta and went down to a 53 to 31 defeat in Saturday's feature intramural basketball contest. The game was an even one during the first half, as Dick Webb and Don Williams each put in six points for A.T.O., and Larry McSpadden tossed in nine for Phi Gam. Score at the half was 19 to 14. Phi Gam. The Fiji veterans went to town in the last two periods, however, as McSpadden made 11 more to bring his game total to 20 points. with Chain Healy and Roscoe Hambric sinking four field goals apiece during the same time, giving their team a 22-point lead at the final bell. Beta's Take Close Game Beta Theta Pi won a 25 to 22 decision over Phi Delta Theta before one of the largest crowds that has assembled yet this season to witness an intramural contest. The game was a closely-fought one, with the lead changing hands many times. Thirty-two fouls were called by officials Bill Hodge and Buck Thomas. Trailing 11 to 12 at the half, the Beta's turned on the pressure in the third period to regain the lead. Both teams used nine men in an attempt to place the best scoring and defensive formation out on the floor. Beta's managed to pile up the biggest lead of the game in the last few minutes, which the Phi Delt's were trying desperately to close up as the game ended 25 to 22. Beta standout was Ransom Bennett, who eluded his guard often enough to score 9 points in this tight defensive contest. Phi Delt stars were Dewitt Potter, steady and dependable standby, and Mel Lindeman, who sparked the rally in the closing minute of the contest. Crackerjacks Stage Late Rally The Crackerjacks defeated John Moore Co-op 33 to 28 in another close game. Score at the half was tied 12-all, and the winners led by 21 to 20 at the end of the third period. But the Crackerjacks, who used only five men throughout the contest, had the scoring power when it was needed, and came out on the long end of a 33 to 28 score. Jim Roderick again starred for John Moore, and piled up a total of 17 points. Glenn Mize led his Crackerjack teammates with 15 tallies. Teke beat Alpha Chi Sigma 53 to 25, and S.A.E. defeated A.K.Psi 41 to 14, in two of Friday's high-scoring contests. Alpha Chi Sigma's put up a stern resistance in the first half, but were outplayed in the last in which Jack Bryan, last week's all-star Teke, made 21 points. Bob Wright, Alpha Chi Sigma forward, led his delegation with 12 tallies. Lynn Williams, Sig Alph scoring ace, found the bucket for 19 points as his team won over A. K. Psi; and Frank Gage, in addition to turning in a good defensive game at guard, put in 11. Don Pomeroy was the A. K. Psi standout. Sig Eps Win Easy Sig Ep's also won a big-margin game when he beat Sigma Nu $ 50 to 17. After blanking their opponents 16 to 0 in the first quarter, Sig Ep's went ahead to lead 29 to 6 at the half. All six Sig Ep's that appeared on the floor scored 6 points or better as the five-man Sigma Nu squad tried desperately to stave off the scoring thrusts. Otto Teichgraeber led the Sig Ep scoring with 11 points. Sigma Chi pulled away in the last quarter to win 33 to 21 over the Kappa Sig's in what had been a very close game for the first three periods of play. Score at the half was 14 to 14, and scoring continued to be neck and neck until the last few minutes of play, in which Van Hartman, Bill Hyer, and Jaek Beck tossed in field goals to give their team a 12-point lead at the final bell. Andrisevic Leads Delta Chi's The Hell Hounds, outscoring Battenfeld after an opening which looked like an even game was in store, took a win from their opponents 29 to 21. With the score tied at 5-all early in the second quarter, the Hell Hounds began to pile them in and led 15 to 7 at the half. Battenfeld began to come back in the last half, but couldn't recover, and finished eight points behind. The combination of Cordell, White, and Unruh was responsible for most of the Hell Hound scoring, while Ben Matassarin sparked the Battenfield resistance. Delta Chi, sparked by Ed Andrissevic, who chalked up 13 points, came out on the long end of a 32 to 23 score in a battle with T.K.E. The Delta Chi's were never seriously challenged for the lead, and were out in front 17 to 10 at the half. Jack Bryan, scrappy Teke, led the opposition to Delta Chi scoring, and put in 15 points to be high man for the contest. Kappa Eta Kappa forfeited to Delta Tau Delta in the other "A" team game scheduled for the weekend. Sigma Chi "B" lost 19 to 20 to Carruth "B" in Friday's closest "B" team contest. Carruth had a substantial lead at the half and at the end of the third quarter, but Sigma Chi's began to catch up in the fourth period, and almost closed the gap. Standout of the game was Sigma Chi Bud Adams, who played "A" team ball, and put in 10 of his team's 19 points. Bud Adams Good in Defeat Pi K. A. "B" won from Kappa Sig "B" in a similar game played Saturday morning, Kappa Sig's led 11 to 4 at the half, and looked as though they could hold it for the game. But Warren Hodges, Pi K. A. varsity football man, got hot in the last half and sparked his team to an 18 to 17 victory. McIntire Makes 22 Points Delta Tau Delta "B" overwhelmed (continued on page seven) Kansas State Hits Lawrence Saturday Battle Royal Is Forecast Records and past performances will mean nothing when those two arch-rivals, Kansas and Kansas State, have it out on the basketball court at Hoch auditorium Saturday night. The fact that Kansas rests at the op of the Big Six basketball roost or the present and Kansas State it the foot will have no bearing on he situation Saturday. Generally Close Games Holman is showing the way on scoring for the Aggies this year. He Last year when Kansas was favored over the Aggies the Jayhawks spurted ahead in an overtime period to win 50-45. In that squeeze, Kansas had to come from behind in the last 30 seconds to tie it up 41 all. Two seasons back it took a free throw in the last 30 seconds to give the Jayhawks a 34-33 margin. Horacek and Holman have been teamed at forward. Horacek led the Staters' scoring last year with a 7.9 average for the season. This is his third year under Gardner, who uses him as floor general because of his coolness. 90 846 HONEY After opening the season with some impressive non-conference wins, Kansas State has fallen before Oklahoma and Nebraska. Before the season had gotten under way, Jack Gardner, Aggie basket-ball mentor, had awarded "Phog" Allen and his Jayhawks the Big Six basketball crown. Kansas State has five returning lettermen and eight sophomores for this year's team. So far this season coach Gardner has been using four lettermen — Jack Horacek, Danny Howe, Larry Beaumont, and George Mendenhall—and one sophomore, Bruce Holman, in the starting line-up. DAN HOWE Kansas State Center 2 2 AHS JACK HORACEK Kansas State Forward At the guard positions are Beaumont and Mendenhall. Beaumont is large, handles the ball well, a distance shot artist, and is considered by Gardner as an all-Big Six possibility. This is Mendenhall's second year on the varsity. He is fast and is the defensive mainstay of the team. is small—weighing 150 pounds and standing 5 feet 10 inches—aggressive, fast, and a good defensive man. Howe, who can play center or forward, is the team's best rebound man. Two sophomores—Frank Kirk and Fred Kohl—have been seeing action at the forward posts. Dean Lill has been substituting at center; he is a letterman. Three sophomores—John St. John, Kenneth Messner, and John Bortka—and a junior, Marion Miller have been pushing the lettermen for the guard spots. Coach Jack Gardner, who learned his basketball at the University of Southern California, has a team this year lacking any real height. It averages about 6 feet and depends on fast floor play and long shots to score. Center on the Indiana team which downed K.U. to win the N.C.A.A. championship that year was Bill Menke, now a standout on the Great Lakes team. The lanky Menke is a powerhouse on rebounds. Another member of the Navy aggregation who has tangled with the Jayhawks before is tall John Lobsiger, all-Big Six guard when he was playing at Missouri. Great Lakes Has Outstanding Talent One of the greatest collections of basketball stars in the history of the cage game, the Great Lakes Naval Training Station team, will clash with the University of Kansas Jayhawks at the Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City, Feb. 5. Smashing through to victories over such big name teams as Notre Dame, Purdue, Indiana and Northwestern, the Great Lakes quintet has stamped itself as a smooth working organization, rather than merely a group of stars. Two Familiar Stars To Play In the Jayhawks, Great Lakes will be meeting a worthy foe. Dr. F.C. Allen, the "Knute Rockne of Basketball," has a team this year which already is acclaimed as one of the finest quintets in the school's history. Big Six champions nine times in the last eleven years, the Jayhawks always figure prominently in the national basketball picture. In 1940 Kansas finished second in the national collegiate tournament. Reserves and Height For Allen Reserves and Height The other stars who make up this great basketball squad include men from such basketball capitals as Stanford, Dartmouth and Northwestern. The lesser known schools are represented by a pair of men from Ohio University and Detroit U., Frank Baumholtz and Bob Callihan, who can hold their own in any company. Against this array of talent, Kansas will put a squad which is made up of seven lettermen and six fine sophomores. Doctor Allen finds himself this season with reserves upon whom he can depend. Height, which the Jayhawks have lacked in other years, is present on the 1942 squad. Up from the freshman team came Jack Ballard and Charlie Black, 6 feet 6 and 6 feet 4 inches tall, respectively. They joined forces with T.P.Hunter, senior guard who nudges slightly past the 6 foot 3 inch mark, to provide a formidable group of rebounds.

PAGE SIX --- UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS. SUNDAY, JANUARY 18, 1942 The KANSAN Comments... WHY GO TO COLLEGE By E. F. ENGEL Professor of German Editor's note: The following editorial by Professor Engel is a reprint of one written by him in the September, 1891 issue of the University Review. This was at one time the literary monthly magazine. Professor Engel, then a senior, had been elected editor for 1891-2. We believe our readers will be interested in comparing the views expressed fifty years ago with those of the present day. The question is often asked, what will a college course do for a young man or young woman? And why is it that so many students attend a college or university for half a year, a year, or two years, and then drop out with their hopes of a college education banished forever? Looking at the first question from an a priori standpoint, the answer will depend upon the disposition of the student and the purpose he has is going to college. It is hard indeed to prophesy the effect of attendance at higher institutions of learning upon this or that young man or woman. Nearly every one has a mental outline of a college student. This notion, or outline varies somewhat in the cities and in the rural districts. A country boy goes to college, and when he returns at the end of the first year he can neither act naturally or unnaturally without unkind remarks made about him. If he acts refined and makes use of his newly acquired knowledge in common conversation he is branded with the "big-head." If he has not changed in his manner and conversation it is insinuated that his college course is doing him no good. The citybred young man is less watched in this respect than the farm boy and yet the effect of a college course is quite as uncertain as with the latter. From an a posteriori point of view it is easier to see the results of a college course. But even here we must guard against being led astray by appearances and false notions. The amount of textbook knowledge does not determine the success of one's college career, nor is it an indication of its failure if one does not crowd into some profession or into some intellectual line of work. Bishop Vincent, in one of his lectures, once said that if he had a boy who intended to be a blacksmith he would give him a college education. College-bred blacksmiths are indeed few, but what a change there would be in this world if all blacksmiths were college graduates. We are about to look upon a man's time and money spent at college as wasted if he afterwards settles down on the farm, in the shop, or in business. It would be quite as reasonable to think that every man who is a good marksman should make his living by hunting whether there is any game or not. Such is not the case. A college course should make a man better qualified to live, whatever kind of work he may take up. It should make him refined in manner and conversation, tender and compassionate in heart and disposition, honest and energetic in seeking the highest plane of human life. As to why so many students do not finish their course, we have this to say. In most cases the fault lies with the student himself. Very few things indeed can keep one from finishing his course if he has the love of knowledge and the ambition to do so. January 1942. Since the above editorial was written, our country has been through two wars and is now marshalling all her forces for the prosecution of a third. These wars, especially the one in progress, have emphasized the value of, and put premiums upon college education. We would all, no doubt, agree that to divert to the purposes of war all the powers and capabilities which college training develops is to prostitute higher education, which the early founders of our college never dreamed of. In times like these, our prospective and actual college students might ask: Why should I discipline and enrich my mental and physical powers only to be made a target in war and thus increase the cost which the casualties of war entail? One answer might be that the government and the home, which give you this opportunity for self-improvement, can rightfully claim all you have and are to defend and perpetuate them. The fact that gold and diamonds may be ornaments in a "dive" does not detract from their value as adornments of beauty and virtue. If we are to have a warless world, the leadership which America will furnish in the march toward that millenium will come from among college men and women who have dedicated themselves altruistically to a program of international justice, understanding, and good will. So, looking forward to the future, when staggering problems of peace must be faced and worked out, we must open the way for an everincreasing multitude of men and women to receive the benefits of college education.

Rock Chalk Talk DEAN OSTRUM Although the Pi Phi's swear it's the truth, if it had been anyone else but Jill Peck, I wouldn't have believed it. It seems that Friday afternoon Jill called boy friend Garland Landrith on the telephone to break her dates for the weekend in order to get ready for finals. The conversation tottered along for a while with several other topics coming up for discussion. Not satisfied to sit at home alone that evening, Garland finally thought of a brilliant idea. "Let's go study together," he suggested. "What?" Jill asked. "Let's go study," Garland repeated. "Ju-st a moment," Jill stammered unable to believe her ears. "I'll call you back in just a moment!" Slamming the receiver, Jill jumped from the phone booth. Amazed and almost afraid, she ran downstairs for advice. "It had never happened to her before quite this way," she thought to herself, "but then, Garland was different from the rest." After an hour of thought, Jill had made her decision. She phoned Garland. "Garland, this is Jill," she began breathily not waiting for an answer, "and I've been thinking this thing over. After all we're only so-sophomores—and then too, it's January. If it were spring, Garland, it might be different. Honestly, I just don't think we'd better!" "What ARE you talking about?" Garland began. "Why you know, silly, about you're asking me to go steady," she explained. "Oh." Garland wailed, "I said go STUDY!" Speechless, Jill waited for her strength to return and then said meekly, "Well, O.K." It wasn't told to me—I only heard. B.M.O.C. Mike O'Donnell and colleague Ribby Woodbury are candidates for president and vice-president of the "Let's Mess With Other Peoples" Messes" Club. Could it be they're stuffin the ballot box? In December Mary Morrison, 1244 Louisiana, received a letter from her honey, Cadet Arthur J. Sebesta at West Point, written on a stiffly starched shirt cuff. For weeks Mary has been thinking of novel ways to answer her correspondence and at last she thought of one. With the help of her roommates, Mary is cuffing off to Art on 52 yards of adding machine tape. She got the roll of tape from the Ellsworth county courthouse while home for the holidays, and every girl at 1244 Louisiana wrote ten or twenty feet. The letter took approximatel twenty-four hours to write and almost that long to rewind. Only problem now is how to mail 1,944 inches of tape.

Conard--- Western Kansas Farmer Proposes 'No Fee' Plan A plan whereby all student fees would be eliminated at the University of Kansas, Kansas State College, and other state schools was presented by J. H. Conard of Coolidge, Kansas in a talk before the state board of agriculture in Topeka Friday. "When a student arrives at school he finds that he must pay 10 dollars to enroll, an incidental fee of from 25 to 75 dollars, an athletic fee of seven and one-half dollars plus tax, a health fee of five dollars and special fees belong." ing to the subjects he wishes to study," said the western Kansas farmer. "If he graduates, he must pay seven and one-half dollars for his diploma. Because of these fees many farm boys and farm girls are not able to finance themselves. They must return to their homes." Conard said that even if the students were able to find jobs to help with expenses, their class work was badly handicapped. He declared that the money spent for activity books often was wasted because the working student could not attend the athletic events. The speaker said Chancellor Malott wrote him that he objected to elimination of the fees because it would cost the University a half-million dollars annually in revenue. In answer to this Conard proposed greater legislative appropriations. He said congress had allotted $63,000,000,00 for war purposes from May 1, 1940 to October 1, 1941, and added: John J. Conard, of the Rock Chalk Co-op is a son of Mr. Conard and a junior in the college. "While we are appropriating so very many dollars to teach our young to hate, to destroy and to kill. I ask you, do you think it would hurt us too much to appropriate just few more dollars to teach them to laugh, to love and to live?" HILL POLITICS (continued from page three) P.S.G.L. counts for much support, a better chance to vote. Pacachacac claimed that the added hour was unnecessary since any student could find some time during the day in which he could vote. Through the absence of a P.S.G.L. member that night, Pachacamac had a one-vote majority. A motion was made to table the amendment indefinitely. The motion carried by one vote. Eventually, however, two Pachacamac members drifted out of the Pine room of the Memorial Union building, where all Council meetings are held, and, in a surprise move, a P.S.G.L. representative moved to take the amendment off the table. Dispute arose, but Robert's Rules of Order sustained P.S.G.L. in their motion, and the Council decided to reconsider the amendment — by a one-vote majority. A vote was called for immediately, and the amendment providing for longer voting hours went on the minutes as passed--by a one-vote majority. Political bickering and party insults were predominant during the discussion, which was one of the most heated in recent M.S.C. history. Calendar Bill Passes It is significant that the most constructive piece of legislation of the semester was the last major action the Council took. It consisted of a bill setting up a permanent organization for the publication of the annual University calendar which was initiated by the Council this year. The M.S.C. conceived the idea of publishing a University calendar in November, and went to the University Reserve fund to ask for financial backing. The committee in charge of the fund agreed on the condition that it be responsible for backing only this year. The Council accepted the terms and the calendar was printed -- 1800 copies, all of which sold. of designing, financing, and promoting the calendar each year. They made the position of manager salaried, the amount of his compensation to depend on the profits derived from the sale of the annual publication. The manager is to be directly responsible to the M.S.C. Good and Bad Politics Faced with the desirability of continuing the printing of the calendar yearly, the Council devised a permanent set-up for that purpose. At the last meeting of the semester on January 12, they passed a bill which established a calendar board. This board will appoint each spring a manager who will complete charge Thus, this semester in politics has been unique. Disputes, a split membership between the two parties, and its both good and bad legislation have made it one of the most unusual periods of Kansas University politics. The World War may make it ever more so in the coming semester There is a movement, as yet undeveloped, to freeze the membership on the Council until after the war has ended. It is claimed that this will be advisable in two respects--it will eliminate the expense of an election and it will solve the problem of arousing interest in an election when the United States is at war. FIJI'S ROLL ALONG Considering "Freezing" Council (continued from page five) a hapless D.U. "D.U" five to 19 in another of Saturday's "B" contests. Delt Jim McIntire put in 11 field goals to chalk up a total of 22 points, and his teammate, Ralph Hedges, came close to equalling this mark with 21. Carruth "B" pulled a surprise ending on A.T.O. "B" to come out on top of a 26 to 18 score. A.T.O.'s led 13 to 12 at the half, and 17 to 16 at the end of the third quarter. Then Carruth settled down in earnest, and finished victorious with Jim Morrow and Dave Hutchinson doing most of the last-period scoring. Big Margins in Division Six Phi Gam "B" added another to its string of victories by beating Sig Ep "B" 25 to 16, and Sig Alph "B" defeated Battenfeld "B" 27 to 13 in Saturday's other "B" team contests. Acacia "B" forfeited games to Phi Delt "B" and to Beta "B" that were scheduled for Friday and Saturday. In Division six, Tau Kappa Epsilon "C" forfeited to Phi Phi "C", and Beta "C" won from Phi Psi "D" 44 to 15. Phi Delt "C" overwhelmed Sigma Chi "D" 51 to 10, and Phi Gam "C" took Beta "D" to the tune of 28 to 10.

Elects Hull President Mary Gene Hull, college junior was elected president of the Independent Students association at the varsity in the Memorial Union ballroom Friday night. Miss Hull has been the acting president of the I.S.A. this year filling the vacancy left when Fred Robertson resigned. Warren Snyder, member of the central council, was the other candidate in the election for president. The four representatives-at-large which were elected are Mary Frances Fitzpatrick, Dorothy Harkness, Paul Hardman, and Ruth Krehbiel. Other candidates for representatives were Howard Gibbs, Evelyn Hodgson, Ruth Tippin, Dean Martin, and Glenn Primer. Any state college or university student called for military service will be given proportional credits for the amount of work done up to the time he is called, the Board of Regents has announced. Students who were not able to attend the dance Friday night were allowed to vote in the basement of Frank Strong hall Friday morning from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 o'clock. Clayton Harbur's band played for the election dance. Drafted Seniors To Get Full Credit Seniors who have finished approximately three-fourths of their final semester will be given their degrees upon passing a special examination over the uncompleted work. Undergraduates will be given either half or full credit for their work, depending on how much is left unfinished. This rule will apply to the summer session, as well as to the fall and spring sessions. The board feels that it would be unfair to deny students credit or a diploma for their work just because they lacked a few weeks of finishing the semester. February Graduates Obtain Jayhawker Photos Immediately Seniors leaving school at the end of the first semester who want their pictures in the Jayhawker with the senior class should have their pictures taken at Hixon's studio immediately, Jim Surface, editor of the Jayhawker, announced today. College Students ★★★ Enroll Early On January 15, 16, 17 (a.m. only) 19 and 20, you should do the following: 1. Seniors should enroll for the spring semester by appointment at the College office. 2. All other students should see their advisors and work out their spring schedules. Read posters for details.—Paul B. Lawson, Dean. New Women's Coop Ready For Occupancy Actual occupancy is the only step remaining to make the new cooperative house for girls a reality, Genevieve Harman, president of Kaw Koettes, announced today. A house at 1536 Tennessee street, accommodating 11 girls, has been secured, and more than the required number of women have applied for membership. Mrs. Ellen Running will be housemother. Living costs at the new house will be approximately $20 a month, Miss Harman said. This sum includes room rent, board, social fees, and incidental expenses. Although all present applicants cannot be accepted, women students may still receive consideration for membership by making application to Miss Marie Miller, assistant to the adviser of women. Members of Kaw Koettes, only present women's cooperative house at the University, will make final decision on all applications. WAR PROPAGANDA— (continued from page one) censorship techniques, through the study of every important nation's practices in these lines. Newspaper in Society is a course designed to suit the needs of students outside the department of journalism who wish to learn the newspaper's role in modern society; importance of the American press, its problems and limitations. These two courses are offered regularly each year by the journalism department. Their presence in the curriculum for next semester is emphasized because both are highly adapted to the increased tempo of the public press in war time. A six-day week schedule with classes being held all day Saturday has been adopted at Haskell Institute, G. Warren Spaulding, superintendent, announced Friday. This plan, which went into effect yesterday, is expected to aid the national defense program as well as to reduce operating costs of the Institute. Haskell Schedule Has Six-Day Week Superintendent Spaulding explained that the class work would not be shortened even though the school will be dismissed about three weeks earlier as the Saturday classes will make up for the early closing date. Commencement will be changed from May 18 to April 27, giving students a better chance to obtain jobs. Students were given an opportunity to express their opinion of the plan at an assembly Friday morning. Spaulding said students were in favor of the change as they had been wanting to do something to aid the defense program. The superintendent explained that the plan probably would not have been adopted if the majority of students had been opposed. Operating costs are expected to be reduced about $20,000 during the remainder of the term. This saving will be used in many ways to further the activities of the Institute. Saturdays have previously been used as clean-up days around the Institute campus, but this work will be scheduled for other days during the week. This new program was worked out by the Haskell Institute, as the six-day week is not a general practice among government schools. M.S.C. FINES (continued from page one) erman, $1; William D.

Explanations and background material concerning the musical numbers will be given. Selections from the children's program will be given. Selections from the children's program will be "Overture to Die Sledermaus (The Bat)" (Straus), the last movement from "The New World Symphony" (Dvorak), and selections from "The Nutcracker Suite" (Tschalkowsky) including "Waltz of the Flowers," "Russian Dance," "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy," and "Dance of the Flutes." From the adult's section of the program the music hour will present "Overture Fantasia to Romeo and Juliet," (Tschikikowsky), and "Prelude in Love-Death from Tristam and Isolde" (Wagner). The music hour is sponsored by the Student Union Activities Board. Colleen Poorman, chairman of the Music room committee, is in charge of the program. VARSITY MEET KILLER SLADE!

Dusenbury today. Letters and visits from parents, outside students, and University students not now in R.O.T.C. have been arriving every day from a considerable distance around. Colonel Dusenbury believes that this interest will cause an increase of enrollment in the University itself, as "a considerable number of students came to the University in September for the sake of its military courses alone." The R.O.T.C. is one of the biggest businesses of the University today. Since its inception it has graduated 617 commissioned reserve officers, many of whom are now captains and majors, and most of whom are in service today. This does not include the five men who will graduate with commissions this month or the forty-one who will graduate in June. To the government—for instructional equipment, personnel salaries, uniforms, and pay allowances—the R.O.T.C. at the University represents an expenditure of $45,000 annually. Also, many thousands of dollars are spent each summer on the six-week training camps for advanced students, including their pay, transportation, and sustenance. The average cost of basic training is $11 per capita. For advanced students, it amounts to $88. This includes the pay allowances of the student, which is often considered a form of scholarship. Kinda Tardy Sends Report To Chancellor For years we've been going on without knowing how the true meridian matched with the magnetic one. Last week, Chancellor Deane W. Malott received this letter from County Surveyor C. W. McLaughlin of Wyndotte county: "In accordance with section 19-1406, statutes of Kansas, I am submitting you the comparison of the magnetic with the true meridian. During the year of 1941, the reading in each instance was 8 degrees 15 minutes east of north." Investigation from the Chancellor's office disclosed that back in 1868, the state legislature passed a law which required each county surveyor in the state to submit to the Chancellor of the state university four times each year, a comparison of the magnetic and true meridians. Raymond Nichols, executive secretary to the Chancellor said that so far as the records were available, this was the first time that any of the county surveyors had fulfilled this particular obligation. Fine Arts Proposes Unusual Course In Camouflage A course in the art of camouflage has been proposed by the School of Fine Arts, to be under the supervision of T. D. Jones, assistant professor of design. The course will carry two hours credit and will consist of eleven lectures and field and laboratory work. The course, if passed, will be offered next semester.

The new senior manager is a member of Sachem, Sigma Delta Chi, and Owl Society. He was sports editor of the University Daily Kansan during the past football season and is a member of the Kansan board. University Offers Shortened 2-Year Engine Course The School of Engineering moved yesterday to join in the war-time spetdup with the acceptance of a new two-year technological program for skilled craftsmen. Students completing the new shortened program will receive certificates of industrial technology for their efforts. The course of otudy will be similar Red Cross Contributions Reach $127 Groundwork for the student Rec Cross emergency relief drive has been laid, and the committee is waiting for contributions toward the $500 student goal. The independent contribution is $127.74 to date, Prof. E. C. Buehler, general chairman of the Red Cross, said today. Highest contributions by organized houses so far are Miller hall, $18.05; and Kaw Coettes, $17.25. All organized houses which have not yet reported,will contact their respective chairmen. Professors and students have addressed organized houses, independent students have been solicited on the campus by Jay Janes and boxes have been placed in Frank Strong hall, the library, and at the ISA Varsity. Campus Scene on New Catalogue The University catalog for the coming summer session will be fronted by a silhouetted picture of the campus, designed by Clara Smithmeyer, senior in the department of design. to that of the regular four or five-year program, but of a condensed nature. The move was announced yesterday by Chancellor Deane W. Mahlott. The new course of study has been planned by J. J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering, after he had spent several weeks in eastern industrial centers studying their requirements. The student who completes the program will occupy a position between the craftsman and the technically trained engineer. They will fill positions with limited responsibility, Jakosky said. The new program was launched, Jakosky said, for the benefit of students who will be called to the service before they can complete a longer course, or who wish to go into a defense industry at once. Jakosky explained that the work to be dropped from the shortened program is not of the craftmanship type, but will be instead studies along the general cultural line. Students receiving credits in the new program may transfer them to the four or five-year programs, or to other engineering schools if they wish. The outlined program, which Jakosky drafted, was to a large extent the suggestion of high industrial leaders with whom Jakosky (continued to page eight) Philharmonic Is 'Splendid' By JOY MILLER Approaching finals made last night's concert probably the lightest attended Kansas City Philharmonic program ever presented in Hoch auditorium, but nevertheless, Hill music lovers were well represented. Karl Krueger led his orchestra in a splendidly balanced program of familiar "heavies," making no attempt to "play down" to the predominantly student audience. It might have been a sizeable lump to swallow in one sitting, but K.U. was not only equal to it, it clamored for more. "Carnival Overture" by Antonin Dvorak, which opened the concert, is a vivid portrayal of a nineteenth century jam session. 'Idyllic and Tender' The actual account of the tone picture is that of a wanderer who reaches a city at nightfall, where a carnival of pleasure and hilarity is in progress, with Czech folk songs and dancing providing the merriment. The orchestra played it with zest and enthusiasm, yet making the romantic love scene occurring in the middle, idyllic and tender. Piece de resistance was Brahms Second Symphony in D Major, the most hopeful and good-natured of all his symphonies. The opening allegro movement has two main themes, and one placid and melodic, the other almost waltz-like in rhythm. Cellos, horns, and violins do all the work. The second movement is a melodic adagio, while the third is a gay, animated scherzo with a captivating theme. The finale begins calmly with the main theme, advances "con spirito," and reaches a lively tempo which continues throughout the movement until a higher level of joyous intensity closes the work. Violin Section Shines 12 13 14 Tschaikowsky, long-haired passion of modern youth which loves to get sentimental occasionally, composed the first of the after-internmission numbers in 1869. The ever-popular "Overture Fantasia, Romeo and Juliet," based on the Shakespearean tragedy of the ill-starred lovers, was performed with sympathy by the entire orchestra, but with especial enthusiasm by the sweeping violin section. The audience became wistful-eyed whenever the love music occurred in the work. The love motif, by the way, will be remembered as a popular number of several years back, "Our Love," probably one of the first of the Tschaikowsky melodies to be cast adrift on the sea of swing. As a final composition, Wagner's "Prelude and Love-Death from Tristan and Isolde," was appropriate. (continued to page eight) PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS TUESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1942 Here on the Hill --the class let-ups will be lev from now on. Studying and Coking On the Program Now It's strictly "on the books" for Hill scholars from now on. That last-of-the-semester spurt of energy has been keeping everyone on their toes while the end of the written work for this semester is handed in. Now comes the cramming, or studying as the case may be; then finals; and then, the real fun of relaxing during the last free days of this year. With no spring vacation. "Coking" places say that their supply of the beverage will last for quite awhile, so the stimulant for late hours of study may not be entirely lacking. After cokes are gone, there is always grape pop, and all those other childhood beverages—not to mention milk.

Yes---and where were you?...on "The Night of JANUARY 16" Can you prove it? Make Your Date for Mystery, Thrills and Laughs at the JAYHAWKER Thursday through Saturday TUESDAY. JANUARY 20. 1942 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN. LAWRENCE. KANSAS PAGE THREE 2 University Adds Women's Therapy Work University women will have the opportunity to participate in the program of vocational rehabilitation of service men wounded or disabled in the present world war, according to plans announced this week by Chancellor Deane W. Malott and approved by the University Senate. By adding a course in occupational therapy for women as part of its speed-up war program, the University becomes one of only six schools in the United States from which registered certificates may be obtained. Demand Is High The demand for occupational therapists is twice as great as the number of trained young women available. The profession of occupational therapy, which uses handicrafts, recreational, and educational activities as treatment prescribed by physicians and administered by trained therapists to hasten recovery from injury, disease, or mental sickness, is closely allied with medicine, nursing, physical therapy and social service. The course at the University will be administered chiefly by the department of design and the University of Kansas hospitals in Kansas City. Leads to Bachelor's Degree It will consist of three years here and one full year and one semester at the hospitals and will lead to a bachelor's degree in occupational therapy. Included will be the study of chemistry, physiology, zoology, bacteriology, anatomy, and handicraft courses in metal and jewelry work, weaving, leather work, woodcarving, and other simple crafts. Schools and institutions other than the University of Kansas where certificates for registered occupational therapists now may be bad are the Boston School of Occupational Therapy; the Philadelphia School of Occupational Therapy; the St. Louis School of Occupational Therapy Downer College, Milwaukee; and the State Hospital at Kalamazoo, Mich. Ten Die in Fire At Lynn, Mass. Lynn, Mass. — (UP)— At least ten persons were killed early today and Fire Chief Joseph E. Scanlon estimated that eight to 10 more were missing in a fire that destroyed a five-story apartment building in the center of the Lynn business district. More than 25 were injured, most of them by leaping from windows into the street. One of the injured was Chief John Adams of the Marblehead fire department who fell from the roof to a fire escape several floors below. Screaming and shouting, occupants leaped through the windows while flames puffed out around them. Firemen brought scores down ladders. William J. Fuller, crippled by infantile paralysis, threw his crutches from a window to attract attention, but when firemen reached him, he insisted that they rescue his mother first. Shannon Leaves For Naval Duty William H. Shannon, associate professor of accounting in the School of Business, left for Washington, D.C.Sunday to report for duty as a lieutenant (senior grade) in the Supply Corps of the U.S.Navy. Professor Shannon, a graduate of the School of Law, has been a member of the University faculty since 1930. Professor Shannon served as the University golf coach last spring and he was recently made a member of the R.O.T.C. committee. Other members of the School of Business staff will give the final examinations in Professor Shannon's courses. Navy Strikes At Atlantic Submarines Newport News, Va. — (UP) — The Navy struck back with all available warships and airplanes today to eliminate the German submarine menace along the Atlantic seaboard which within six days has cost the Allied nations four oil tankers—three sunk and one damaged by shell fire and torpedoes. The relentless German underwater campaign, almost within sight of the Atlantic shoreline, apparently is directed at the fleet of oil tankers plying the sea lanes between Caribbean and Middle Atlantic ports. Other ships in the vicinity of the latest attack were not fired upon, survivors said. The latest victim of an enemy submarine was the American tanker Malay, an 8,206 ton Gulf Oil company ship. It survived a 90-minute submarine attack off the North Carolina coast early Monday and limped into port here early today. One of its crew of 33 was dead; four others were missing after attempting to launch a lifeboat. Survivors told Naval officials here how the submarine had singled out the Malay from a group of "several" other ships, subjected her to merciless shellfire and then sent a torpedo crashing into her side almost amidships. The pattern of the attack was the same that sent the tankers Norness and Coimbra to the bottom off the coast of Long Island last week and sunk the Allan Jackson off the North Carolina coast early Sunday. There was no warning when the first shell crashed into the bridge of the Malay before daylight. "There were several other ships around us," he said, "but none were bothered, showing that the submarine was after oil tankers." One member of the Malay crew, Boatswain Walter Bruce of Staunton, Ill., said the submarine apparently deliberately chose the Malay as its target. The Malay was empty, en route from Philadelphia to Port Arthur, Texas, to take on a cargo of crude oil. Phi Delta Kappa Meets Tonight Dr. J. W. Twente, professor of education, will report on the activities of the Phi Delta Kappa National council at the January meeting of the organization at 7 o'clock tonight at University High School. Labor Peace Negotiations Threatened Washington—(UP)—New wound, and old grievances threatened today to impede negotiations for unifying the labor movement after seven years of separated units. Sen. Robert F. Wagner, co-author of the National Labor Relations and Wage-Hour laws, said labor peace "definitely is in the cards," although it may be some time before the differences can be settled. President Philip Murray of the Congress of Industrial Organizations, in a letter interpreted by most observers as a rebuke, told former CIO President John L. Lewis that only the organization's executive board could order peace conferences resumed with American Federation of Labor representatives. Lewis proposed to both Murray and AFL President William Green that the peace talks broken off in April, 1939, be resumed. The AFL executive council promptly accepted the proposal. Murray, making no effort to veil his belief that Lewis acted without proper authority, invited the former CIO president to attend a meeting of the executive board in New York on Jan. 24 and "present your view-point." Green denied a newspaper report that an agreement already had been reached and that it included his resignation. He said there was "absolutely no truth in the statement," and it rendered "a great disservice" to the cause of "labor unity and labor peace." Wagner said he believed the "bitter ennities" resulting from difficulties between the AFL and CIO would provide obstacles, despite the "overwhelming desire of labor's rank and file for unity during the war period." He said unity would result in three important benefits: 1. Elimination of jurisdictional disputes and interunion "raiding" to the detriment of war production. 2. Strengthening of labor's hand "by unification of her strength" which will be felt particularly in the post-war period. Lewis has been carrying on "exploratory" conversations with AFL leaders but according to informants no definite agreement has been reached. Murray and Green were said to have taken no part in them. 3. Improve relations with employers heretofore plagued by jurisdictional disputes and "union politics". Emporia Editor Speaks To SDX At Dinner Tonight Frank Clough, managing editor of the Emporia Gazette and author of the current book, "William Allen White of Emporia," will speak at the dinner of Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalism fraternity, at 6:30 tonight in the English room of the Memorial Union building. Initiation services will be held at 5:30 p.m. for Richard H. Boyce, assistant instructor in journalism. A group picture will be taken at 8:15. No Scotch Varsity Tomorrow There is no Scotch Varsity scheduled for tomorrow night in the Memorial Union ballroom. Lombard Funeral Rites Tomorrow or Thursday Las Vegas, Nev.—(UP)—Clark Gable planned to return to Hollywood with the body of his wife, Carole Lombard, today after identification of the film actress' mother. Gable's film studio associates said a double funeral would be held tomorrow or Thursday for Miss Lombard and her mother. Mrs. Elizabeth Peters $ ^{3}$ Gable's film studio associate be held tomorrow or Thursday mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Peters both victims of an airplane crash in which 22 were killed. Plans to return last night were cancelled because Mrs. Peters' body was not identified positively. Gable had scheduled himself at a hotel here after two futile attempts to accompany searching parties scaling the rugged mountain where the plane crashed Friday night. His friends persuaded him yesterday, however, to take a drive in the desert. The actor received many messages of condolence and said he was "deeply moved" by a telegram from President Roosevelt. The President's message said: "Mrs. Roosevelt and I are deeply distressed. Carole was our friend, our guest in happier days. "She brought great joy to all who knew her and to the millions who knew her only as a great artist. She gave unselfishly of her time and talent to serve her government in peace and war. She loved her country. "She is and always will be a star, one we shall never forget nor cease to be grateful to." Bodies of 15 officers and enlisted men of the Army ferry command were being carried here from Double-or-Nothing peak. Douglas County Completes Drive For T.B.

Treece of the bacteriology department, who was chairman of the committee for faculty members and employees, reports $500 contributed. Undergoes Minor Surgery Richard Learmonth, business senior, underwent a minor surgery this morning at Watkins Memorial hospital. U.S. Troops Have Best Uniforms In Army History Wilmington, Del. — (UP)— Men in the United States Army are receiving the best uniforms ever issued soldiers, and veterans of the last World War can well be envious of modern soldiers whose outer garments are treated to shed water. The army jacket, worn both on and off the post, is treated chemically to shed water and resist spots, stains and perspiration. The jacket is made of cotton poplin, lined with wool where added warmth is required. Only a driving rain will soak through the jacket. Non-greasy spots and even splashes of soup may be sponged off with a damp cloth The coat also serves as a windbreaker. It may be repeatedly dry-cleaned or laundered with only a slight change in its repellent properties. $200.00 IN CASH FREE WEDNESDAY 9:30 P.M.

Buesser also resorted to long shots and came up with three goals. During the first half Bisch was fouled four times and made all four attempts from the free throw line. Kansas lost last night. You already know that. You heard it last night probably and have read it this morning or at least in the columns to the right of these words. But don't lose faith in the Jayhawkers just because they lost. They still have one of the best teams in the country. They played their hearts out last night. At least they gave as much as could be expected after playing Nebraska on Saturday night and Missouri on Wednesday night. Three road games within six days is hard on any team and it makes it doubly difficult when the players have a few items such as final examinations to worry about when they return from their trip. Iowa State probably deserved to win last night. They were hot. Students at the game said they were hotter than any time this year. And it took every bit of their best to nudge out the fighting Kansans. In Al Budolfson, Iowa State has undoubtedly one of the best forwards in the conference. He has a very good eye for the basket, most of his goals coming on shots that didn't touch the rim of the basket. A paradox of his is that he misses the backboard on about one-fifth of his shots. He was extremely fast last night and many times dribbled around Kansas guards only to miss his set-ups. His favorite shot was in the left-hand corner of Iowa State's territory where he would take a pass from a guard, get set quickly, and let fly with a high-arching, two-handed shot. The other shot which he used the most was on a fast break across the free throw line when he whipped in goals with a one-handed push shot. The Cyclone senior made his first two free throws and then missed six consecutive chances. Bob Harris appeared to be the luckiest individual out on the court. Time and time again he would take the ball and go charging down the floor. The Kansas defensemen would stand stationary in their positions and when Harris hit them the referee would immediately call a foul on the defense. The logic of the interpretation just wasn't evident. Bobby Johnson was especially the victim of this happenance. Johnson played the best brand of ball he has exhibited the entire year last night and yet he had three fouls called on him in the last 70 seconds. Twice the foul was tailed right in front of the Kansas bench and it was obvious that Johnson was not moving but only maintaining his position. Referee Ted O'Sullivan called the fouls. WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE REFEREEES And with the mention of O'Sullivan another item is brought to mind. While rolling homeward last night it so happened that the radio was tuned to WOW, Omaha, where Tom Davis is giving a sports broadcast. His main topic of the evening was complaining about refereeing. The sport was a little different, Davis referring to the hockey game at Amaha Saturday night, but his thoughts were the same as ours. Said sportcaster Davis, "Sports fans don't mind going to athletic attractions when the referees make a few mistakes. That is only natural. But when a referee consistently calls fouls on one team and never tries to even things up, then that is going too far. And when certain fouls are overlooked constantly when it is evident that a foul is committeed, once again that is too much." Davis was just a little more burned up about his situation than the Kansas fans are about theirs. But it certainly proved a coincidence. Davis, in fact, even urged that the hockey referee, Steve Beeler, should never be allowed to referee in Omaha again for the good of the game. Now this column doesn't think O'Sullivan is that bad. But from watching his work in the Oklahoma game here and again last night it appears evident that he might reach that point soon. During the early part of the game last night the fans were constantly asking Coach "Phog" Allen, "How much are you paying the refs tonight?" Even when Iowa State was leading the fans themselves were disgusted with the officiating. And then when the game did become close in the last few minutes, the referees had to spoil it. In the last three minutes six fouls were called against Kansas and three against Iowa State. Four of the Kansas fouls coming in the last 90 seconds when the advantage of taking the ball out-of-bounds meant everything in the world to the Cyclones. During the first half several Cyclone players would leap onto a Kansan's back in an attempt to get a rebound but no foul would be called. In the last half it happened many times again and twice it was called, showing that the action was against the rules, but was being overlooked the rest of the time. The most flagrant of all fouls was the interpretation O'Sullivan gave to charging and blocking. One time during the game Miller charged down the court with the ball and Uknes collided with him. Both players were given fouls. The same thing happened three times in the last 90 seconds and only Bob Johnson, the Kansas defenseman, was given a foul. After the game the Iowa State students were heard commenting that the refereeing had certainly been poor. The same comment was heard down at Missouri and likewise after the Oklahoma game here. The excuse by the high officials at the start of the season was that it was too early in the season. The same mistakes are being made now, indicating that some new referees would be in order. Odds and ends from the game: Iowa State fans were the rudest to visiting players and spectators last night that this columnist has ever seen. . . All the other schools in the Big Six enjoy razzing K.U. and it is returned to a degree when they play at Lawrence. . . . But the treatment received last night was down-right malicious in intent. . . . After the game had progressed about 12 minutes a sign was lowered from the ceiling with the words "Croak Phrog, O.G.P.U." written on three cards. . . . It was finally lowered so low that it interfered with high down-court passes and the referees had to take time out and have the signs removed. . . "Where is Junior" was the pet cry of the night. . . . And another, "We don't want to beat Allen". . . . Cyclones Clip Kansas 45-41 Loss Puts Kansas Out of Lead By CHUCK ELLIOTT Kansan Sports Editor A fighting band of game, but dead-tired, Kansas Jayhawkers went down to a 45 to 41 defeat last night at Ames at the hands of a hot Iowa State crew which was paced by all-Big Six forward, Al Budolfson. Budolffson was the star of the game as he poured goal after goal through the hoop in the first half to register five baskets and two free throws. The Cyclone forward sank the majority of his goals on two-handed set shots from the corner. During the last half he added two more goals on one-handed flips from the free throw circle. No one player was outstanding for Kansas as the entire squad played lackadaisical ball and only occasionally were spurts of their true form exhibited. This was the third away-from-home game in six days for the Jayhawks and came on the same road trip which took them to Lincoln for their victory over the Huskers Saturday night. Hall Gets Hot The first half found John Buescher and Vance Hall as the only Kansans able to get near the basket with their shots. Hall entered the game after 14 minutes had been played and sank one close-in shot and then whipped three long swishers through the cords in the next five minutes. During the last half the scoring was more evenly divided for both teams as no one individual made more than Ralph Miller's two field goals and three free throws. Over 4,000 fans crammed their way into State Gymnasium, which normally holds 3,200, at the start of the game. Charlie Black took the first shot of the game and missed but Miller tipped it in after 20 seconds of play. The Cyclones took the lead as Bob Harris was fouled while shooting and both the goal and the free throw counted. Buescher and Budolson traded goals in the next minute and then Bisch followed with another free throw and a long shot from center to tie the score at 8-all with six minutes played. Buescher tied the score with a free throw at the 90-second mark but Budolfson started his scoring spree at this point. He sank a goal and followed with a free throw to give the Cyclones a three-point lead with two and one-half minutes played. It's Close For A While For the rest of the first half it was a case of just how many points Iowa State wanted as they hit a torrid streak which resulted in points from every angle. During the next eight and one-half minutes Buescher and Black dropped in a free throw apiece for the only Kansas points as Budolfson connected for five, Schneider for four, and Harris for three. Before Black's free throw the Cyclones led 20 to 9 for the biggest lead of the game. Hall entered the game for Kansas and with his eight points and three additional markers from Buescher the Jayhawks were able to close the gap a trifle before the half ended with the Cyclones leading 29 to 21.

A Rejuvenated Kansas Team The second half was an entirely different story as the Jayhawkers came back to show that they were a truly great ball club. For eight minutes the Cyclones were held to only one field goal and that was a lay-in shot by Harris when the Kansas defensemen got mixed up on their men and allowed the red-head to get loose. During those eight minutes the Kansas quintet looked like the same team that trounced Oklahoma, Missouri, and Nebraska. Miller got two free throws and Hunter one in the first three minutes.

Miller, Kansas game captain for the evening, followed this with the prettiest shot of the game as he came out of a melee under the basket and flipped the ball back over his head for another two points. Black scored his first basket of the evening with seven minutes played as he took a pass from Miller and drove in for a set-up. Kansas Takes Lead After an Iowa State time-out Ray Evans came through with his first goal of the night on a two-handed jump shot from the free throw mark. This gave Kansas a 32 to 31 lead with seven and one-half minutes played. Harris tied it up on a successful free throw then Leon Uknes blocked Miller and a double foul was called. Miller made his shot good but Bob Hayes substituted for Uknes who left the game with four fouls, and (continued to page seven) Ooer's Ober's SUITS - OBERCOATS WHAT?

Newman led by a substantial margin of 15 to 6 at halftime, but the Blanks came back later in the game and threatened to turn the tables. Garry Graham led Newman II scoring with 12 points, although five Blanks managed to put in at least two points apiece in the last half. Blanks failed to sink a free throw in the contest, which might have given them the winning point. Acacia was nosed out again last night, this time by Theta Tau to the tune of 30 to 25. The engineers were ahead 11 to 9 at the half, and then held 'a slim margin until the closing minutes of the contest, in which they built a five-point lead. Lindeman Hot in Last Game Ted Moser put in 15 points for Thata Tau to be high-point man for the contest, and Francis Domingo again sparked the attack for his engineering delegation. The Crackerjacks, leading 11 to 6 at the half, kept up the good work throughout the rest of the game to take a 27 to 10 decision from Rock Chalk. The team combination of Frazier and Borgman spurred on the Crackerjack attack, while John Reber was the Rock Chalk standout, scoring 8 of his team's 10 points for the game. Phi Delta Theta overwhelmed D.U. to the tune of 39 to 12 in a contest which saw Mel Lindeman, veteran Phi, putting in 13 points to be high-score man in his last intramural basketball game. Head man for the D.U.'s was Jim Secrest, who chalked up half of his team's points. Bennett Is High Man Delta Tau Delta bowed to Beta Theta Pi 34 to 25, although seven Delt's managed to find the bucket for points. Ransom Bennett, Beta scoring ace, failed to find the basket during the first two periods, but managed to put in four field goals in the last half to be high man in this defensive contest.

Shaky Tigers Lose Fourth Straight Game It was the fourth Big Six conference defeat in succession for Missouri University last night at Columbia as the speedy Oklahoma Sooners came from behind to defeat the Tigers 46 to 31. Sparked by the accurate shooting of D. Reich and Jim Marteney, the Sooners overcame the Tigers halftime lead of 19 to 15 and pushed their lead beyond the grasp of the Tigers. A. D. Roberts and Tom Rousey paced the Oklahoma scoring with eleven points each, while Reich rang up 10 points. Ed Matheny led the Bengal scoring with nine points. Missouri had two scoreless periods, the first coming in the opening minutes of the second half after the Sooners had tied the count to 21-all. Then the Tigers went scoreless for five minutes while the speedy Roberts and Guard Reich pushed the Sooners to a 29-21 lead. The Tigers narrowed Oklahoma's lead with free throws and a field goal by Matheny, but lapsed into another six-minute scoreless. The Sooners again took a wide lead which the Tigers never threatened again. Other games this week in the Big Six include Iowa State at Missouri, and Kansas State at Lawrence, both Saturday night. Iowa State will swing on southward and meet Oklahoma at Norman next Monday. Gardner---'K.U.

Having won from Missouri, Nebraska, and Oklahoma, and having lost to Iowa State, the Jayhawkers are even in conference standings with Oklahoma which has defeated Kansas State (twice) and Missouri. The Sooners have fallen before Kansas for their only Big Six setback. As Oklahoma remains idle Saturday, Kansas will have a chance to take undisputed second place in Kansas State will be the decided underdog against the Jayhawks, but anything can happen in this bitterly fought basketball feud, and records show it usually does.

JACK GARDNER Kansas State Basketball Coach Frequently K.U. has taken the floor the heavy favorite only to be pressed in a neck-and-neck scrap with the Wildcats. Since Jack Gardner became coach at K-State, the Jayhawks have met with extreme trouble on their home court. Last year Howard Engleman and Co. were forced into an overtime period to win, 50 to 45. The previous season the Jayhawks came from behind to take a 34 to 33 decision in the closing seconds. This year the Jayhawkers boast one of their best teams, and Gardner recognizes the excellence of the Kansas quintet. In fact, he picked K.U. to win the Big Six championship because of its wealth of material. But neither Gardner nor any member of his team concede a thing when it comes to Saturday's game. "KU. doesn't frighten us a bit," Gardner said. "We are going out to win the ball game. The Jayhawks had been built up before when we Gardner pointed out that Kansas State met two of the nation's best quintets in Washington and Washington State on the West Coast earlier in the season. "Until we tired, we were in the ball game with these teams and we have shown improvement since," he said. gave them everything they wanted, and we intend to do the same thing Saturday." $3 GEORGE MENDENHALL Kansas State Guard ARRIVED TODAY--this spirited K-State-K.U. basketball series, but the Jayhawks hold the upper hand.

The Stars and Our Courses When war comes to a country, people try to forecast coming events and to explain past ones. This is a natural desire, but can not often be accomplished by natural thought processes. As a result, mystical procedures are quite often brought to the foreground. Astrology is one of these mysticisms, and Britain, among other nations, is now experiencing an astrology craze. Frank Russell Barry, an Anglican bishop, strongly denounced this tendency last week, saying, "If this (astrology) gets a hold upon our people, it will bring defeat, ruin, and damnation." We might use some astrology here on the Hill this week, though. The technique of predicting the future by the stars, could be a big help during final week. We might all be Phi Beta Kappa's if we knew just what stars to watch. Studying the textbooks would become a mere incidental. Any student could pick out the geology star, or the logic star, or the thermodynamics star, observe it for a few nights, then consult his charts, and find out some time before finals what questions were going to be asked. With this information in hand, he could anticipate anything even the most depraved and fiendish professor could ask. If the faculty could be persuaded to hold finals at night, things would be even simpler. In case the student's memory fails him, he could race outside, point his astrolabe skyward, take a few rapid-fire calculations, and scamper back in with the answer.-B.J.A. Add tongue twisters—headline in Chicago Tribune, "War may rob wee folks of rubber pants." ---O------- After the doings in Russia and Libya, Herr Schickelgruber might write a sequel to his best seller and entitle it "Mein Scramf." Weather Forecast There has arisen some consternation in connection with the shutting down on weather forecasts as a military and naval necessity. The favorite gripe has been, "Why in a world as big as this one does the Kansas City, or St. Louis, or Dallas forecast bear any importance to a war that is so far from this area?" The act was deemed by many to be a silly, unwarranted restriction designed merely to scare us into realizing the seriousness of the situation we are facing. It can be explained in this way. Meteorologists in an enemy land, by having in their possession barometer and temperature readings and other weather data from the western and northwestern states, can foretell by three to four days what kind of weather will prevail over the North Atlantic. This is all done on the knowledge that high and low pressure areas move from west to east, generally speaking. It is this information that governs plane and ship movements. By thus looking into the future and sighting danger before it strikes us squarely on the nose, the government is doing a commendable job in requesting that the newspapers and radio withhold certain types of weather data. In the event of unprecedented weather changes that might be detrimental to stockmen and shippers, warning forecasts will still be given out; under ordinary conditions, however, it is necessary that forecasts be on a reduced scale. Go to the Ant In a neck-and-neck race for survival, man is lagging behind the insect, according to Prof. William T. Heron, a University of Minnesota psychologist. "It seems to me that up to now the small-brained insects have been winning the race," he says. The reason for this, he explains, is that manmade civilization has gone in cycles while ants and similar insects—flies, social beetles, and bees—have continued steadily for 15,000,000 years. Their survival is due, Heron says, to control of reproduction and strict divisions of labor, "more organized than man's in some instances." Man's civilization, however, developed because man's brain enables him to adapt himself to new situations, while ant instinct is sufficient only to meet all situations in the same manner.—Associated College Press OFFICIAL BULLETIN UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Vol. 39 Tuesday, January 20,1942 No.75 Notices due at News Bureau, 8 Journalism, at 10 a.m. on day of publication during the week, and at 11 a.m. on Saturday for Sunday issue.

Rock Chalk Talk DEAN OSTRUM The censors have at last caught up with Helen Rhoda Hoopes, assistant professor in the English department! While broadcasting recently over KFKU, Miss Hoopes had occasion to read some poetry especially appropriate for the spring season. Apologizing beforehand, she jokingly commented, "It seems odd reading such a piece when we're having such terrible weather outside." Almost immediately the telephone in the studio rang violently. It WREN, whose facilities KFKU uses. "No more mention of the weather they snapped. "Government regulations!" As if the coke shortage were not enough to worry about, the Memorial Union fountain boys are currently troubled by a coat which hangs heavy on their hands.

With finals just around the corner and the boogey-man across the street, students are in desperation beginning their annual run on use of the midnight fuel of knowledge. They should, however, first ponder what a horrible situation would arise if they see so much of the precious stuff that Hill dwellers to come Behold what would if your little brother Johnny came to Lawrence, with full intentions of duplicating your happy life on Mt. Oread, so find that the stores of midnight oil had been depleted. He would have to study during the day. He would have to hold his bull sessions during the day. He could boast no enhancing blackish-blue shadows below the eyes, tell of no dramatic 3 a.m. struggles with accounting sets. Under the light of the midnight oil shortage Johnny would grow thin, pale, and possibly so listless that he would forget to write home for money. We can hardly count on other universities to ship us the magical oil, doubtless they are suffering from the same worries that we are. Remember, if at 4 o'clock some morning during final week you take time out from cramming, that Johnny may some day suffer for your gluttonous use of late-study fuel. Burning the candle at both ends is all right. We might as well get rid of all the old candles, anyway. But if we ever run out of midnight oil, we're sunk. A majority of the University food-handlers have reported for their examinations and the Health Service expects to complete them this week. "Us Inc." Split By Tonsilitis Ams, Iowa, Jan. 20—Just when "Us, Inc.", had built up complete faith in their ability to be identical in action as well as looks, the whole thing is wrecked by tonsilitis. Roy is back in school following the holiday vacation, but Ray is home with tonsilitis. Or maybe it's Ray who is back and Roy has tonsilitis. Anyway, R. Wehde is on the campus and R. Wehde is sick.

For the past week some fond brother (godblessim) or pledge (godelpim) has planted gunpowder in Swede's favorite pipe tobacco. It's not the explosion when he lights the pipe that irritates him; it's just the principle of the thing. Careful investigation of the house for fine particles of buckshot has given Swede a helpful clue. Suspicion has narrowed itself down to one room—the Crackerbox. Inmates are Don Nigg, John Campbell, Fred Simmons-Smith, and Bob Miller. —to ze continued Sunday. TOGETHER FOR THE 7th TIME--- MARIE MAYER Mickey Rooney, Judy Garland in one of their comical get-ups for "Babes on Broadway" playing today and tomorrow at the Jayhawker theater. CYCLONES CLIP--- (continued from page four) shot the free throw, making it to keep the score tied. With twelve and one-half minutes to play the count stood 33-all but Budolfson came through on a long shot and followed this with a tipin to send the Cyclones ahead 37 to 33. Evans made a lay-in and Black duplicated it to tie the score again with six minutes remaining. It Took Too Much But the Jayhawkers were spent at this stage of the game. The reserve which they needed had been used up at Nebraska two nights before and they couldn't keep the pace. George Harville made a free throw and Harris counted from the field to make a three-point lead with three minutes to play. Buescher got a free throw but Mickelson scored on a jump-shot from the free throw circle to lengthen the lead. Budolfon fouled Black and left the game with four personalists. Black, with 4,000 fans yelling at the top of their voices, coolly stepped up to the free throw line and made two successful points with a minute and one-half to go. The score now stood 42 to 40 for Iowa State. The referees took charge of the game at this point and stopped play five times during the next 90 seconds to call fouls. Three of these fouls were called on Bob Johnson, one on Hall, making his fourth foul and his third foul within three minutes, and one on Mickelson of Iowa State. Harris tried the first shot and made it good and followed a moment later on a set-up to give the Cyclones their 45 points. Johnson tallied one free throw with 25 seconds to play. Iowa State took the ball out of bounds on the other three fouls and stalled for time in the backcourt until the gun sounded.

The United Nations stood off Japan's Far Eastern offensive with stiff counter-blows today and growing confidence officially was expressed in London as to the final outcome of the conflict in the southwest Pacific. It was emphasized in dispatches from Singapore that the threat of Japanese forces — some reported landed at the southern tip of Malaya — remained grave, but from the fighting fronts came reports that: Australian counter-attacks on the Malaya front regained territory from the Japanese south of the Muar river and probably 75 to 85 miles from Singapore, which again was bombed by 50 Japanese planes. United States bombers shot down nine Japanese fighters in heavy raids on the enemy at Celebes Island in the Dutch East Indies and on Sungei Patania airdrome in Malaysia. Two American craft are missing. Dutch bombers struck at the Japanese in Kuching, the capital of Sarawak on North Borneo, starting big fires, while the enemy again raided Sabang (on North Celebes) and Siebolda, on western Sumatra. Although the general effect of these operations was a stiffening of allied resistance, all dispatches emphasized that there was an ever-increasing need for reinforcements, especially airplanes, to oppose scattered Japanese offensive blows. On other fronts there was little change. The shelling and torpedoing of a fourth tanker, the Malay, off the East coast of the United States, with loss of one life and four missing, confirmed that a large pack of long-distance submarines had been sent to the New York area in an effort to strike at any American troop transports that might attempt to sail eastward without convoy. In Russia and Libya allied forces failed to make any important new gains. The Red army counter-offensive still was on the verge of important new successes but for more than a week the Russians have not officially reported any major successes and the bitter struggles now in progress against the Germans at such key points as Mozhaisk, Orel and Kharkov indicated that the Axis defense lines are becoming more difficult to break. Barbecue Brings $75.00 For Local State Guard Unit The officers and men of the Lawrence State Guard are happy today—they've got a company fund now. It happened this way. The State Guard is a volunteer organization without income of any kind. To remedy this, the Chamber of Commerce sponsored a barbecue. Fifty percent of the gate went to the State Guard. The R.O.T.C. took charge of preparations, with Sergeant William Kollender officiating. The gate receipts totaled $151, netting $75.00 for the company fund.

"Similar standards are set up for the two year program as for the regular four and five year engineering programs. LADY SCARFACE WITH DRANKS O'KEEFE JUDITH ANDERSON The aim of the industrial technicians' training is to produce a worker for the modern industrial system who will occupy a position intermediate between the craftsman and the technically trained engineer who graduates from the regular four or five-year accredited engineering course. The men taking the work would fill positions as foremen, unit process supervisors, routine plant control operators, maintenance engineers, shift bosses, and many other industrial uses that have limited responsibility without the need for the full theoretical background of the trained engineer, Dean Jakosky said. "The chief difference between the 2-year program and the longer course lies in the fact that the new course includes essentially the art and craftsmanship courses which now form a part of the regular four or five year engineering programs. In the short course, subjects of a general cultural, administrative and advanced theoretical nature have been minimized."

Needed More Fire The average listener, who was keyed up to a properly melodramatic and anguished pitch, felt he had to force the orchestra along to reach the high intensity of emotion the story and Wagner's treatment calls for. The entire composition held the audience enthralled but the Liebestod, or Love-Death, where Isolde achieves union with the slain Tristan in death, could have been played with a little more "oomph." Maestro Krueger and his orchestra were enthusiastically called back for encores. The first was the "Overture to the Secret of Suzanne" by Wolfe-Ferrari, a sparkling concert- piece that has been a favorite among lighter opera fans for years. Suzanne's secret, by the way, is that she indulges occasionally in the weed, and tries to keep this frivolious sin from her husband. Typical Composition "Minuetto from the L'Arlesienne Suite" by Bizet, was the second encore. It was reminiscent of old Spain, and typically the work of the composer of "Carmen." Director Krueger put an end to requests for more encores by suggesting the audience stand to sing, "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." The gay familiar Strauss walt "Emperor's Waltz," was third, and Grieg's "Norwegian Dance in A Major," brought the group to a close. The "Norwegian Dance" is a sprightly composition that is often sung under the title of "My Johann."

Oread, and is regarded by the University administration and by the community as one of the most important courses. The course is designed to present a sound basis for popular judgment upon current problems of America at war, and will be open to all students of the University as well as to citizens of Lawrence and surrounding communities. It will consist of fifteen lectures, and will carry one hour credit. Material considered in the course will be: How and why did this war come to the world and especially to America? What are the stakes for which it is being fought? And what are the prospects that open ahead? The course will begin with conditions that lie behind the present conflict: the clash of ideas and systems, the failure of Versailles, the League, disarmament, and the peace efforts, and the lessons that these experiences can teach us. The discussions will take up next the coming of war to Europe, to the Far East, and to America, with an analysis of the role and resources of the various combatant powers, and an account of the conduct and strategy of the war to the present. Finally, consideration will be given to the problems of American war economy and require- (continued to page eight) $24 Cash Red Cross Gets Class Rebate Attention Women--whom Bailey Laboratories are named. There was a request from Tulane University, from Wayne University, from the Kansas State Board of Health, and a whole file of others. $24, cold cash, was added to the Red Cross drive pot last week by the 9:30 Social Science Survey class taught by Hilden Gibson. The class found that it had a rebate coming on a magazine that they had subscribed to for the course, the total of which amounted to $24. Sherwood Has Requests For 200 Technicians Military and Defense Data Available Some one made the motion, and it passed unanimously, to give it all to the Red Cross. James R. Hitt, assistant registrar, is accumulating all available information with respect to opportunities open to students in the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Defense activities. Part of this information has been summarized in a multigraphed pamphlet edited by Stewart Bunn, senior engineer, which was distributed as a supplement to the Kansas Engineer for January, 1942. Additional copies are available at the Registrar's Office. On the bulletin board outside the Registrar's office is posted an extensive chart prepared by the Office of Education of the Federal Security Agency which summarizes the positions open in various civilian defense activities as well as the Army and Navy Aviation, CAA, Maritime Commission. Weather: Fair over weekend. Fine for vacationing. Urgent requests were there from Col. W. H. Bailey, chief of the military hospital at Ft. Sill, Okla., for four technicians. Col. Bailey is a son of Prof. Bailey, former professor at the University of Kansas for An unusual opportunity for University of Kansas young women to be of vital service to their country is offered in the field of bacteriology as laboratory technicians. Dr. Noble P. Sherwood, chairman of the department of bacteriology, announced today. An almost overwhelming flood of letters asking for the services of competent technicians, both in government and in private service, lay on Dr. Sherwood's desk as he spoke of the opportunities for service. More than 200 K.U. graduates, he said, have been placed in positions as laboratory technicians in every state in the Union, and in U.S. possessions.

"Applications for places in the new hall should be made immediately," Applications for places in the new men's residence hall should be made immediately in room 1, Frank Strong hall. Mr. Ulmer urged. New applicants for residence hall scholarships will have a limited choice of the four halls, but most of the newcomers will live in the recently acquired dormitory. The committee cautioned applicants not to make contracts or commitments at rooming houses while their applications were pending. Buy Acacia House The house was purchased last week from the Acacia fraternity as the fourth men's scholarship dormitory. It was formerly occupied by the University Club. "It is a fine building." Mr. Ulmer observed, "and the study rooms are larger and more comfortable than those in any of the other three halls." The new hall, as yet unnamed, will be operated on the same basis as are Battenfield, Carruth and Templin halls, with a deposit of $19 each month and a possible refund at the end of the semester. The new scholars will also pay a maintenance fee of $7.50 at the beginning of the semester. Mrs. M. M. Wolf, housemother for the Acacias, will continue as housemother for the cooperative house. Applications for the position of proctor will be considered by the committee. Engineers Enroll Early Enrollment for all students in the School of Engineering and Architecture will start at 7:30 am. Monday, Feb. 2. (continued to page seven) Working students who have relatively inflexible schedules should be there early to get in necessary classes before they are closed. F. L. Brown, professor of applied mechanics, will have charge of upperclass enrollment, and R. Koopman, professor of electrical engineering, will supervise freshman enrollment. Beat K-State, 46-44; Cyclones Lose to M.U. By CHUCK ELLIOTT Kansan Sports Editor The Kansas Jayhawkers jumped right back into first place in the Big Six title race last night by nipping the Kansas State Wildcats 46 to 44 in an overtime battle before 3,500 fans in Hoch auditorium. At the same time in Columbia the Missouri Tigers were winning an equally tight game, 45 to 41, from the Iowa State Cyclones. The standings now show KL one loss while Iowa State dropped to third place with two wins and one defeat.

J. Moreau, dean of the school. Under the new ruling of the supreme court, a candidate for admission to the bar from now on until further notice must offer both the collegiate and the law degrees for admission to the bar. No mention is made as to how the degrees must be obtained and the matter is left entirely to the University of Kansas. "Under the new ruling of the Supreme Court, a candidate for admission to the bar from now until further notice, must offer two degrees, the collegiate and the law degrees. The rule makes no mention however as to how these degrees must be obtained, save that the matter is left entirely up to the University of Kansas to decide. Accordingly, candidates can comply with the Court's rule by offering both degrees obtained under the combined degree plan. Hence, people planning to practice law in Kansas, now having the 94 hours required by the College under this plan, are eligible for the first year of law at the end of which the College will confer the A.B. degree as in the past. Complete details as to how the degrees may be acquired are explained in the statement issued today by Dean Moreau. The statement follows: It is my understanding too that regular college students are entitled to take up to 20 hours of professional credit on the A.B. degree. Hence, candidates for the regular A.B. degree in the College, having 104 hours or so in the College could take the remaining 20 hours in the Law School. This plan probably has advantages over the combined degree plan in that it admits of even more background, and enables the student to finish in just about the same time. Under present plans the Law School will offer a fifteen weeks session this summer. Under this arrangement students will be able to complete the six semesters of law in two calendar years. Students entering this February will be able to complete the work in February, 1944. Students entering June 2, will be able to finish in June, 1944, etc. This, coupled with the enlarged summer session in the College should enable a person to obtain both the A.B. and LL.B. degrees in a little more than four years. BLUE MILL - SNACKS - LUNCHES - DINNERS When You Speak of Good Food You Think of the BLUE MILL Shortage Hits Student No Thumbers Not the least of the sufferers from the present rubber shortage will be the college hitch-hiker. Shortage of rubber means shortage of tires, and the lack of tires in turn means a distinct decrease in the number of automobiles traveling the nation's thoroughfares. With traveling salesmen and friendly tourists a thing of the past, the student thumber is likely to become from all responsibility equally extinct. Bus and railroad companies will flourish, but pity the poor students. Coins formerly spent for tuition, movies, and cigarettes must now be hoarded to pay the costs of transportation at vacation times. During the past few years hitchhiking has blossomed on the campuses of the country until it has become to all appearances a big business enterprise. In at least two states associations have been formed to aid such thumbers. from all responsibility in case of accidents. A Texas group has even gone so far as to place benches for hitch-hikers on the outskirts of all the principal cities of the state. These organizations furnish the way-farer with stickers, advice, and identification cards releasing drivers Journalists Attend Editors' Conference Five faculty members of the University department of journalism attended the fifttih annual convention of the Kansas Press association in Wichita, Friday, Jan. 23. They were Elmer F. Beth, acting chairman of the department, L. N. Flint, K. W. Davidson, T. C. Ryther, and Verdun R. Daste. At the convention plaques were awarded to winners in the Kansas Press association better newspaper contests. Mr. Beth judged these contest. Governor Payne H. Ratner gave a speech "Kansas and the War Effort," at the annual dinner Friday evening. With the temporary passing of the college thumber goes one of the most colorful sights along the nation's highways. Bedecked like a Christmas tree—freshman cap and all—his toothy smile was a plea that few motorists could resist. Undoubtedly he will be missed. But its only temporary. Let the cars start rolling again, and you find him once again dotting the roads from California to Maine.

Last night was another typical battle between the two state schools. It makes a clean sweep thus far this year in athletics for the Kaw Valley school. In a surprising upset the Jayhawker footballers came through with a 20 to 16 victory over the Aggies and last night made it number two for the year. The next chance for combat between the schools will be March 3 with a return court engagement at Manhattan. THE FIRST ACT FROM LAST YEAR To refresh the memories of basketball fans with last year's struggle at Lawrence here are a few highlights of that game. Howard Engleman was the leading scorer with 14 points, followed by Bobby Allen with 10, Johnny Kline with 9, and Marvin Sollenberger with 8. For Kansas State Larry Beaumont was the big gun with 13 points, trailed by Danny Howe with 11, Jack Horacek with 10, and Chris Langvardt with 9. The regulation game ended with a 41-all count after Bobby Allen had intercepted Tom Guy's out-of-bounds pass with only 30 seconds remaining and whipping a pass to Howard Engleman under the goal for the score-tieing points. In the overtime Allen connected for the first three points after Howe had made an overhead basket. Engleman followed with a basket but Horaceck matched it for the Aggies' final points. Johnny Kline sank a set-up and Vance Hall dropped two free throws to finish the scoring and give the Jayhawks a 50 to 45 win. THE BIG ARGUMENT OF THE GAME Last night's game brought forth one beautiful argument. It all started with Bruce Holman's foul on Jack Ballard. Charlie Black was substituted at this point for Ballard but because the latter was shooting the free throw Black retired to the side lines. Immediately after Ballard's unsuccessful attempt the buzzer on the scoring desk sounded. Darrel Hinkhouse followed suit with a quick whistle of his own. Just after the whistle Vance Hall took the rebound and pushed a goal. Kansas State protested the counting of the goal and referees Ernie Quigley and Hinkhouse gathered in front of the scorer's desk for consultation. They discussed the play for several minutes and finally decided that the goal should not count. This interpretation was correct in so far as the existing facts permitted. However, several mistakes were made in arriving at this solution. In the first place, Henry Shenk, on the scorer's desk, should not have pressed the buzzer until the ball was dead. The new rule this year allows for substitutions after SUCCESSFUL free throw attempts but not on those that are missed. The second mistake was made when Hinkhouse blew his whistle on the court. He should have realized that the ball was still in play. In discussing the play a moment later, Quigley insisted that the goal should count. Basis for his belief was that only the buzzer had sounded and no whistle had been blown. In other words, Quigley didn't hear Hinkhouse blow his whistle and therefore the ball was still in play. When Hinkhouse admitted that he had blown his whistle this automatically made the ball dead and the basket did not count, which was the decision given by the officials. Comments on the situation were in agreement to the greatest extent. Gene Kemper of the Topeka Capital said, "A team is always entitled to a rebound on such a play but since Hinkhouse blew his whistle the ball was dead. The mistake was entirely on Hinkhouse." mistake was entirely in the house. Bob Busby of the Lawrence Journal-World said, 'Technically it was a wrong decision but since the whistle was blown, nothing else could be done except to rule the basket did not account.' except to ride the basket and win the game. The Jayhawkers weren't hustling or driving in the game until they found themselves seven points behind with nearly six minutes gone in the second half . . . Red Ettinger should be given a pat on the back for his good game. His only possible fault was in trying too hard to play team-work and passing up several good shots.

Bisch led him into the free throw circle and then, just as Horace shot, he leaped into the air and blocked the shot. That was Kansas State's last gesture as the Jayhawks controlled the ball for the major portion of the final 90 seconds. Miller was fouled by John St. John, Aggie guard, with 50 seconds to play but the Kansans took the ball out of bounds and stalled until the final moment. Miler although still not hitting a very high percentage of his shots, played a marvelous floor game with his passing and generalship excelling. Even though his shots were not connecting too often he still paced the Kansas scorers with five field goals and two free throws for 12 points or an average of 10.4 for five conference games. Charlie Black was second high Navy Team Has Power TwoDefeats In17Games The most devastating scoring attack boasted by any basketball team in the country will be unleashed against Kansas Feb. 5 in Kansas City's Municipal Auditorium, when the Jayhawks tangle with the Great Lakes Naval Training Station team. Victorious in 15 of the 17 games it has played this season, the Great Lakes team has been held to less than 45 points in only three of those 17 contests. Four times the Sailors sent their score past the 60 mark. Johnny Adams Joins Squad Purdue, perennial bell cow of the Big Ten, was soundly drubbed by Great Lakes, 54-39. Butler, the best of the independents in the Middlewest, was beaten 51-40 and Indiana, national champion in 1939, also fell before the Navy team. To add to Great Lakes' scoring punch, two of last year's All-Americans, Johnny Adams of Arkansas and Lee Huber of Kentucky, joined the squad this week. Adams, a great scorer, raised havoc in the Southwest conference for three years with his sensational two-hand jump shot. He was an almost unanimous choice for Allman for the Jayhawks as he ripped the nets for five baskets and one free throw, missing four of his charity attempts. This brings Black's average down to 13.8 for five games. Johnny Buescher scored seven points on three goals and one free throw to leave him tied with Miller at 10.4 points per game. (continued to page seven) CAPT. JOHN LOBSIGER -QUARD- The Jayhawks started out in rapid style as Black stole an early pass from Beaumont and raced down the court for a set-up in the first five seconds. Horaceek matched this with a sweeping one-handed shot from the side of the court but the Jayhawks started to move at this point and tallied three quick goals. At the 10-minute mark the score read Kansas 15, Kansas State, 10. In three minutes the Aggies had crept up to a 18-16 count but once again a Kansas spurt sent the score to 23 to 16. Here the Aggies rallied and scored four quick baskets with the last two points coming two seconds before the first half ended on a one-handed shot by St John. This gave Kansas State a 24 to 23 halftime lead. Aggies Lead at Half The Aggies started in the second half in the same manner that they left the court and ran the count Horacek Leads Scoring For Kansas State it was a three-ring circus with Horacek the outstanding star. He scored 14 points on six baskets and two free throws. His running-mate at forward, Bruce Holman, came through with four goals. The real trouble-maker for the Jayhawks however was Larry Beaumont, towering junior guard, who tallied seven points besides being K-State's outstanding defensive bulwark. He left the game in the overtime with a slash on his right eyebrow after emerging from a rebound-melee in front of the Kansas basket. to 32 to 25 in five minutes. The next scene called for the Jayhawks to rally and they picked up their cues well for in another five minutes the gap was narrowed to 33 to 30 with the Aggies still leading. Charlie Black sank a free throw and then Ray Evans committed his fourth personal foul against Johnny Bortka, his former high school teammate at Wyandotte. Bortka made the free throw with six and one-half minutes to play. High Lead Near End Kenny Messner, former Jayhawker cager three years ago, potted one of his two field goals and Beaumont lobbed a pass to Danny Howe for another goal to give K-State a 38 to 31 lead with five minutes to play. Buescher came through with a long set shot and followed with a free throw. Miller once again made his entrance and his two baskets followed in quick order. Hunter and Turner came through with their baskets and then came the overture with the Jayhawkers edging out a victory in the same manner as last year when, with the regular game ending at 41-all, Bobby Allen and Company came charging back to win, 50 to 45.

In his first season at Wichita, Shocker basketball coach Jack Starrett is finding tough sledding. IGHIT 103 PAUL HESSE His team has been toppled 11 times, and has won only once, that by a 35-32 margin over Friends University. Wichita Has Young Team The Shocker's squad this year is young—both in experience and years. The average age is 19½ years and average playing experience 4-10 a year. There are but two returning lettermen — Marvin McDonald, and Maurice Curry. Last year Kansas defeated Wichita on the Shocker court 54-39, but it was a close game until the Jayhawks pulled away with eight minutes remaining. With their early season star, Tom Kinkaid, out for the season owing to a minor operation, the Shockers will have but one player, McDonald, who saw action against Kansas last year. McDonald Is Scoring Threat McDonald, a starter on last sea- an's Wichita quintet, is rated a specialist at both long and short shots. He was all-Ark Valley at Wellington High School.

This will be the first game of the only extended trip which the cagers will make this year. The 10-man squad will leave Wednesday, arriving on the University of Iowa campus Thursday morning. Eight major lettermen and two minor lettermen have returned to make Coach Rollie Williams' team one of the strongest in his 13 years of coaching at Iowa City. Outstanding member of the team this year is Vic Siegel, co-captain and leading scorer of the team for the past two years. Siegel has been transferred to guard this year but is continuing his scoring tendencies by averaging 8.6 points a game in 10 contests. Siegel is a senior, weighs 150 pounds, and is five feet ten inches tall. Co-Captains at Guard At the other guard is the other co-captain and another senior, Rudy Soderquist. He's a good scorer and ball handler and a hard driver. He is six feet three and one-half inches tall and married. At center is the giant of the squad, six foot six Milt Kuhl, who is a first semester senior this term. He has clever wrist and finger action on rebound shots and his good coordination and courage make him a real jumper. He is just fair on defense but one of the best scorers on the team. HEADING THE HAWKEYES IOWA Co-Captain Rudy Soderquist, guard; Coach Rollie Williams; Co-Captain Vic Siegel, guard. Chapman Leads Offensive At right forward is the leading scorer on the team this year, Tommy Chapman, a six foot one junior who is the second married regular. He is an unorthodox player who often gets away with his freakish style by his scrapping tendencies. At the other starting position is Wendell Hill, a five foot ten senior who is not too good on scoring because he must wear glasses while playing. He is a clever ball-handler and best as a floor man and feeder. Iowa has split even in 10 games this season, averaging 43.8 points a game to their opponents' 41.6 points. Nebraska defeated the Hawkeyes in December by a 41 to 34 count. Iowa's best game was a 49 to 45 defeat pasted on Wisconsin, last year's N.C.A.A. champs. Kansas, however, will not find DePaul Due For Rebound In the second game of their three-game road trip, the Jayhawkers will face the De Paul University Demons in the Chicago Stadium Saturday. Despite his two-team combination Wendt has had reason to sing the blues already, and faces a tough schedule for the remainder of the season. The Demons started their season with a rush, but have lost all of their four contests in 1942. On the credit side of the ledger, the tall Chicagoans claim victories over Oklahoma, even with the gold-plated Gerald Tucker, by a 40-26 margin; Oregon, by a 27-23 count; Concordia, 55-24; Kalamazoo, 47-22; Chicago Teachers, 35-20; Arkansas Teachers, 73-26; and Chicago University, 43-25. Defeats came at the hands of Purdue's Boilermakers, 26-30; Southern California, 48-54; Toledo, 37-50; N.Y.U. in a 37-38 heartbreaker; and the Gargantuan West Texas State team, 43-60. Coached by "Specks" Wendt, a former De Paul court star, the Demons operate in typical mid-Western firetruck style. Wendt has been experimenting with two complete fives. One is composed of veteran captain Bob Wosney and sophomore Tony Kelly at the forward spots, 6 foot five inch Frank Wiscons at center, and Bernie Wekslers and Dick Starz's senior and sophomore respectively, at guards. The second quintet is made up of promising sophomore Mel Frailey and junior Jimmy Cominsky at forward, sophomore Bill Ryan at center, and veterans Marsh Webb and Cliff Lind at guards. the windy City team a soft touch, as witness the Oklahoma game. 2 + 2 / 4 Your've right in the middle of Final Week —And we're in the Middle of Our MID-WINTER Sale of of SUITS OBERCOATS SHIRTS, TIES PAJAMAS SHOES, HOSE FINGER TIP COATS LEATHER JACKETS Just a gentle hint — Come in now and go on a "Few First" --- Ober's CHEF OF FOUR OUTTA FEET WORN WITH PRIDE BY MILLIONS Hand Stained Brogue See This FREEMAN First IT'S A BUY! $5.85 IT'S A BUY! $5.85 - Sturdy Double Soles - Heavy service stitching - Comfortable easy fitter last - Antiqued winter weight calfskin (Tanned for velvety softness) Ask for No. 690 Antique Brown, No. 691 Black Royal College Shop 837-39 Mass. --- --- PAGE SIX UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS. SUNDAY, JANUARY 25, 1942 The KANSAN Comments... Grand Finale The curtain is about to come down on the fall semester of academic year 1941-42. Four more days of the hell on earth that is final examination week await a trembling, nervwracked student body, but plans are already being drafted for between-semeser activities. This is the last issue of the Daily Kansan for the semester, and reporters and editors can rest from further journalistic activity until February 4. During this semester, both happenings at the University and events that have shaped and will continue to shape world history have moved with ink-stained feet across the pages of the Kansan. Some, unimportant little incidents or frothy features, scampered across the pages, left their tiny black marks, and were forgotten. Others tramped across with a heavy, military tread—graduates of the University under fire at Pearl Harbor and in the Philippines; students dropping out of school to join America's armed forces; new names for placing on another bronze plaque on the Memorial Union building in some future time; a nation revising its way of living from peacetime to wartime, and the University revising its curriculum to meet present emergency and future needs. The Kansan couldn't possibly print a lot of the things we would like to remember—the bull sessions, the steak fries, the pleasant sound of clinking beer glasses after that dull 3:30 class, the touch of pride as we watched the big shovels excavating for the new building, all the time we took to forget just for a while the cloudy future. This was the fall semester, calendar year 1941-42, a semester we will remember for the holiday strike, for Pearl Harbor, for the thousand one little things that make up college life. When the semester began, America was at peace. In one of its first issues of the semester, the Kansan stated, in an editorial, that the spirit that made America a free nation, and developed a great state and a great university in the wilderness of Kansas could shine through any blackout. Now that the semester has ended, America is at war and the blackout is more than a figure of speech, but we still wish to emphasize our faith in the future of freedom and the progress of homo sapiens. THE SUICIDE SQUADRON In wartime there is a type of fighting force known as the suicide squadron. The aim of this military group is to deal out death and destruction without the slightest regard for the personal safety of its members. On Mount Oread there is also such a group. Perhaps it is not quite so deadly as the wartime suicide squadron but it can be just as annoying. These patients have been tramping the campus all day sneezing and blowing into the At Watkins Memorial hospital, dispensary hours are from eight to twelve in the morning and two to five in the afternoon. Those students who call for medical attention after the regular hours are called "out" patients, and their number has increased to the point where the night staff of the hospital has almost more than it can do. Although sufficiently staffed for emergency "out" patients, the hospital is not prepared to care conveniently for the others—the suicide squadron. faces of their friends. Instead of reporting to the sudent hospital for treatment during the regular hours, they plod to class to infect everyone around them. What kinds of excuses do they give when they arrive at the hospital after dispensary hours? Usually they plead an important quiz that they couldn't possibly cut. This is supposed to elicit the sympathy of the nurse who is taking time from her bed patients upstairs to treat these colds. More often the reason is more elusive-an important midweek or a meeting of some kind. Quite often an out patient is very ill merely because he has delayed reporting to the hospital. Then the interne who has been working all day, must be called to take care of the student. With finals just ahead, more and more students will be disregarding their sniffles and their headaches to muddle through exams, allowing the needed medical care to wait until they have more time. Is it any wonder that the hospital staff gets mildly out of patience with some of its out patients?—M.A. Today's ode to futility: Emporia man married a widow with four children, explained situation to his draft board, asked for reclassification. He is still in 1-A. Hollywood is producing another in a long series of horror pictures, this one to be known as "The Ghost of Frankenstein." This should be sufficient proof that you can't keep a good cadaver down.

Tiring from her all-night study session, around 3 o'clock yesterday morning Mary "Scotty" Marrs slipped downstairs from her room at 1225 Oread t make a phone call to a friend. Hearing the noise, the landlady got out of bed and came out into the hall. "Who's there?" she called. "It's just Mary," Scotty answered, suddenly remembering the rule about to phone calls after one o'clock on a 12:30 night. "Hmmm?" the landlady questioned. "Oh, I'm just getting uh-uh piece of sheet music from the piano," stu tered Scotty. She stumbled into the darkened living room, fumbled for th music, and dashed back upstairs. "Whew!" she breathed as she sank into her chair to get back to her studies. On 2 her desk lay the sheet music. Brushing the scrap paper aside, she glanced at the title—"Why Can't This Night Go On Forever?" Started in 1939 Co-op Dorms Operated On Scholarship Basis The purchase of the Acacia fraternity house at 1515 O street by the Endowment Association brings to the University its fourth men's cooperative residence hall since the plan was first envisioned in May, 1939. In that month the Endowmer Association started a drive to raise $20,000 to purchase an equip the historic Brynwood place at the top of Fourteent street as the first men's dormitory. Brynwood place, renamed A January, 1940, and restoration and furnishing the house was completed during the summer. On February 6, 1940, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced that the former chancellor's residence across the street from the first hall would be operated as the second unit in the new housing system. Battenfeld Added Plans for the third hall were completed on March 28, 1940, and construction was started immediately. This was Battenfeld hall, erected by Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Battenfeld of Kansas City, as a memorial to their son, John Battenfeld, who had been killed in a motor car crash two months before. The renovated Alumni place was namer Templin Hall in honor of the secretary of the Endowment association, Olin B. Templin. The old chancellor's home was named Carruth Hall, for Dr. W. H. Carruth, former vice-chancellor of the University. Scholarships Awarded Announcement of the Cooperative House scholarships was made in April, 1940, with prospective facilities for 118 men. The scholarships were to be granted on the basis of superior character and ability; inability to continue as a student without such assistance; sufficient resources to meet a share of the maintenance cost; and the Alumni place, was purchased applicant's spirit of cooperation. A far as is known, the University be came the only school in the country where scholarship is the basis fr admission to cooperative houses. Through a year and a half of operation, the residence halls have proved their value to a university where 60 percent of the student contribute to their own support. At the end of the first school year 118 students had lived for $13.9 per month as the total expenditure for board, room, light, heat, power water, telephone, insurance, magazines and newspapers, house laundry, and salaries for the house mothers and proctors. This is be lieved to be a record low cost for housing in American colleges. This costs this year, however, are expected to be higher because of its creased expenses occasioned by the war. Halls Self-Governing Last spring a self-governing boo was established for the halls. The representative body, chosen for the three halls, formulates all regulations which affect the hall Known as the Men's Inter-Dor Council, the body has a membership of thirteen men. Each hall has fo men on the council, with the he proctor of the three halls as t thirteenth member.

Huber, while not as spectacular, was a standout in the South. Captain of the Kentucky team last winter, the 6'2" guard received All-American recognition. A Well-Proportioned Team The Great Lakes team is by no means unbeatable, however, as was proved by Ohio State and Michigan State. These two teams held the Navy quintet's score in the thirteenth and that was enough to beat them. No giants are to be found on the Great Lakes team, the tallest man being 6 feet 4, but it is a beautifully proportioned team. Of the 13 men in the squad, eight are 6 feet 2 or taller. Only two of the thirteen weigh less than 175 pounds, with funie Andres, former Indiana All-American, topping the list at 210. Observer Is a Starter Missouri's John Lobsiger, an All-Big Six guard during his college days, has been in the starting line-up for the Navy team a number of times this season. The lanky Lobiger is a crack defense man, aine rebounder and drives hard for he basket. Leading scorer for the Sailors this season has been Frank Baumholtz of Ohio University, the shortest man in the team at 5 feet 10. Baumholtz was a scoring whiz in college, pacing is team to the finals of the Madison square Garden invitational tournament last year. It took Long Island J. to finally halt the march of Baumholtz and his Ohio mates.

Merrill Peterson, college junior, will be the University of Kansas representative at the State of Kansas native son and daughter contest in Toekoa Wednesday. The contest is sponsored by Senator Arthur Capper. The subject of the contest is Kansas' rich inheritance and Peterson's title is "Where There is No Vision." CO-OP DOWNS---- (continued from page five) proctor, house president, and two elected representatives. Weekly meetings are held. The residence hall scholarships assure for each recipient adequate facilities for study, a comfortable home, plenty of wholesome food, and the benefits of companionship. Six Houses Planned The financial and administrative affairs of the halls are handled by the Men's Residence Halls Operating committee, of which Henry Werner, adviser of men, is chairman. The scholarships are awarded by the Men's Residence Halls Scholarships committee, headed by Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Future plans include the purchase of the property between the new hall and Alumni place, on which Battenfeld and Templin halls stand, thus extending University property to Ohio Street. At the time of the purchase of Templin hall, plans were projected for a quadrangle on Alumni place on which six residence halls would stand. The future of the project can now be considered assured. JAYHAWKS OPPOSE--- (continued from page four) ing post. Bob Jinkins' six foot 4 inch frame makes him a valuable man under the basket on rebounds. "E" Game as Preliminaries John Hyndman, a sophomore who played on the Shocker's football team, is good on playing rebounds. He stands six feet two inches, the second tallest man on the team. Another probable starter is Gene Steinke. He was the standout on the Wichita frosh squad last year. His fiery personality makes him the spark of the Shocker offense as well as a good defensive man. The Jayhawker "B" squad will also make this trip, opposing Wichita's "B" team as a preliminary to the Varsity game. The University Daily Kansan has complete coverage of activities on the campus.

Jolliffe, Peabody banker and cattleman, for the construction of a men's dormitory. Priorities and rising construction costs made it necessary to postpone plans for the erection of the new structure, which was to be built on the Alumni Place grounds east of Templin hall. Establish Hall— The price paid for the Acacia house is reported to be $16,000, including furniture, fixtures, and equipment. It is located at 1515 Ohio street. Acacias Continue The Acacia fraternity will not disband or give up its charter. Many of its members have joined the armed forces of the United States, but the remaining eight actives and 11 pledges plan to continue as an organized fraternity. The members will not obtain another house, but the group will hold its regular meetings and activities.

Sherwood Has— "Come Live With Me" HIT NO. 2 (continued from page one) greater need than ever for bacteriologists both in army and military posts in addition to the constant heavy civilian demand. "Doctors Don't Tell" One reason for the large flow of requests from the University, Dr. Sherwood said, was apparently the fine reputation the department of bacteriology at K. U. has established over the nation in training its technicians. The University administration, Dr. Sherwood said, is at the present time considering the establishment of an advisory committee for students who wish to consider entering this field. These positions in hospitals, laboratories and clinics usually offer an initial salary of from $75 to $125 per month with board, room, and laundry. The maximum salary for individuals not holding an M. D. or Ph. D. degree but with an A. B. or at most an A. M. is approximately $150 per month and maintenance. The salary for men with M. D. degrees or Ph. D. degrees is much greater. WEDNESDAY $200 in Cash FREE Government positions in bacteriology vary from subordinate positions to positions paying up to $5,-000 to $6,000 a year. The packing plants and other industries employ bacteriologists for control of bacteriology of their products and for research work. The salary range is from about $1,000 to $4,000 a year.
