40TH YEAR
Plans Formed For Navy Day Celebration
In observance of Navy Day Oct. 27, the University and the city of Lawrence will promote a mammoth parade of the entire naval unit attending the school for machinist's mates at the University, the entire R.O.T.C. personnel, floats, bands, and representatives of Douglas County civic and school organizations. As a special attraction the University is sponsoring four broadcasts over KFKU each Thursday beginning next week.
The first broadcast will be a quiz program on naval topics, patterned after "Information Please." Robert Calderwood, professor of speech, will serve as master of ceremonies, while outstanding students from University departments will comprise the answer board. Those students participating are Clarence Peterson, law; Merrill Peterson, political science; Verlyn Norris, psychology, James H. Gillie, business; and Frank Litchy, engineering.
Public Asks Questions.
The public is requested to submit questions for the quiz program. These questions should be accompanied by answers and should deal generally with war, the navy, or the part the navy has played in past conflicts. For persons submitting questions which will stump the quiz board, two tickets for a special dinner to be given by officers of the Machinist's Training School on Navy Day, will be awarded as prizes. Questions should be submitted to station KFKU or to

Committees
Aid For Union
All students interested in serving on Memorial Union Activities committees have been urged by Nation Meyer, board chairman to report to him from 2:30 to 4:30 any week-day afternoon in the Union activities office in the basement of the Memorial Union building.
Carl Hines was elected vice-president of the activities board in a recent election of new officers. Georgia Ferrel is secretary, and Bob Hodgson is intramural manager. Hodgson is in charge of bridge lessons, billiards, and ping-pong tournaments. Hines heads the social committee, which handles activities such as the Jayhawk Nibble, the Sorority Sing, and the Pumpkin Prom. The Pumpkin Prom and Carnival, Nov. 7, is to be the biggest party of the year.
All exhibits in the lounge, open houses, mixers after football games, and camera contests are directed by Dick Royer, public relations committee chairman. Publicity such as posters, the K-Union book, and various publicity for parties is handled by Stan Kreider, publicity committee chairman.
Hold Show Tryouts In Green Hall
Variety Show tryouts, conducted by Allen Crafton, professor of speech, continued.today in the Little theater in Green hall. Tryouts will also be held at 3 p.m. tomorrow afternoon, and any persons having talent in singing, dancing, novelty acts or acting are asked by Professor Crafton to attend tryouts. The Variety show is to be presented Oct.26.
This type of show needs many types of talent, and almost anyone interested in dramatics could find a spot for themselves.
Included in this show of variety acts will be a legitimate, dramatic one-act play. This gives actors of the heavy drama type a chance to perform.
A show of this type will take little time, according to Professor Crafton, as the play is divided into many short acts. Rehearsals will be suited to convenience of the majority of actors and actresses, as much as possible.
WSGA Elects Davis As New Secretary
Peggy Davis, college junior, was elected by the Women's Self-Government Association Council Tuesday night to fill the vacancy of secretary of the council left when Mary Jo Cox who was elected last spring, did not return to college this fall.
After a report by Colleen Poorman, president of the YWCA, the Council approved the appointment of Dorothy Swope, college senior, as the YWCA representative on the Council.
A committee was appointed by the Council president, Marjorie Rader, to take charge of the freshman election the first week of November. Members of that committee are Georgia Ferrel, Marion Hepworth, and Hope Crittenden.
Another committee appointed to study the new plans for WSGA elections includes Jill Peck, Georgia Ferrel, Peggy Davis, Marion Hepworth, Comora MacGregor, Barbara Reber, Janet Marvin, and Nadine Hunt.
Announcements and arrangements were made for the Gingham Frolic scheduled for next Wednesday and the Lantern Parade which takes place tonight.

Women Sing
Tonight's the night! When you hear women's voices ringing out, "There's A Long, Long Trail A-Winding," you'll know that the annual Lantern Parade is taking the traditional trail to the Chancellor's home.
For the 26th consecutive year, University women will serenade the Chancellor and Mrs. Malott. Virginia Gsell, fine arts senior, will lead the group singing of well-known songs.
The dinner beginning at 6 p.m. in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building will be followed by a short song practice before the women are given the Japanese lanterns which will light their way to the Chancellor's home.
The Lantern Parade is sponsored jointly by the WSGA and the YM CA.
Report Boost In Jayhawker Sales
There has been a decided increase in the number of Jayhawker subscriptions sold to students this year, Duane Smith, business manager, announced today. Smith indicated that the number of subscriptions already sold exceeds the records of the past few years.
new years.
The sale of subscriptions will continue until Oct. 8, at which time the first issue goes to press. Following that date, Smith said, it will be impossible to buy either a subscription of an individual copy.
The fall issue of the Jayhawker, which will be ready for distribution late in October, will contain a summary of events which have occurred during the first few weeks of school. Stories of special interest will include accounts of Rush Week, registration, enrollment, and football. The magazine this year will not only contain more pictures and less reading material, but a feature will be added to the cover in the way of color. The cover work is being done by the G. K. Smith Co. of Chicago. Capper Publications is printing the material while the engraving is being done by the Burger-Baird of Kansas City.
Spencer Burtis, editor of the Jayhawker, asks that any student who is interested in writing for the magazine come to the office, which is located in the basement of the Memorial Union building.
BEAT DENVER
All women students who swim are eligible to try out for membership in Quack Club. Members will be elected on the basis of swimming ability. Nada Clifton, president, asks those interested to report at the locker room in Robinson gymnasium Saturday at 10 a.m.
Sailors Offer Aid To Local Farmers
Beginning this weekend, sailors at the Machinists's Mates Training School here will voluntarily become farmers. Realizing the urgent need to save farm crops, the trainees asked their officers for permission to help in the harvest work. The permission was granted until the end of the harvest season.
Contacts with the Chamber of Commerce and the farmers are being made through Ensign R. C. Wester at the station. A survey was taken to determine who has had experience with farm work, and the permission will be granted only to those
Former University students who are now in the service will soon have their names recorded on colored cards in the alumni office. A file is being made which will list all University men and women who have "gone to war."
Alumni Office Prepares War Service File
Each card records the person's name, class, address, and assignment. Since the beginning of the semester Mary Kay Morrow, alumni reporter. Imogene Butterworth, and Media Gae Litton have been collecting and filing the information.
Six colors designate the particular branch of service in which each individual is serving. White cards indicate army service; blue, navy; green, Navy Air Corps; gray, Army Air Corps; cream, marines; and salmon, WAAC's.
News of graduates serving their country is published in each issue of the Graduate Magazine. The first section devoted to graduates in the service appeared in the January, 1941 issue. The section was titled after the 1940 commencement address by William Allen White, "Long Marches and Long Bivouacs." Since then the title has changed, and at present, the page is headed, "For the Defense of the Nation."
Information for the files and magazine is obtained through clippings versations, special inquiries and reverations, special inquiries, and reportorial methods of publicity.

"This will in no way interfere with the regular schooling," Ensign O. N. Pederson, Welfare and Recreation officer said. They will miss the captain's inspection Saturday morning and will work through liberty hours Saturday and Sunday.
The trainees will be permitted to leave, if the farmer comes to get them anytime after classes on Friday, or on Saturday morning, and will be given overnight leave until the regular liberty closing hours at 9 p.m. Sunday.
Douglas county farmers have been suffering a shortage of help and without that help may be unable to save their croops. With the volunteer aid of the bluejackets a possible food shortage may be averted.
First Wilkins Recital Monday
The program will consist of duets from Handel and Puccini. Mr. Wilkins' solo numbers will include the Scotch folk song, "Turn Ye To Me," and "The Stuttering Lovers," (Herbert Hughes.) Those of Mrs. Wilkins will be the "Bell Song" from "Lakme" a group of Spanish songs, and one of her own compositions, "Evening Song." The concluding number will be the duet from the final scene of the first act of "Madame Butterfly" (Puccini.)
Joseph Wilkins, tenor, head of the department of voice in the School of Fine Arts, will, with his wife, Marie Wilkins, soprano, present the first faculty recital at 8 p.m. Monday in Hoch Auditorium.

Press Rallies Nation In Huge War Campaign
National Newspaper Week opens today with newspaper boys shouting the sale of defense stamps on street corners an extensive scrap metal drive, led by the press, and emphasized publicity on a free press in war time. "The Newspapers Go All-Out for Victory" is the theme of the first wartime observance of National Newspaper Week, which will continue until Oct 8.
When the government sent out an SOS for scrap metal, the press took up the Campaign, and by Sept. 24, more than 1,600 newspapers had already pledged their cooperation. The Newspapers' United Metal Scrap Drive Committee has set a goal of 100 pounds per capita. Newsboys Sell Stamps
Scrap metal collection will not be the only war work of the newspapers; publishers will redouble their efforts to increase sales of war bonds and stamps during Newspaper Week. In celebration of National Newsboy Day on Saturday, the newsboys of America will endeavor to increase their sale of war stamps. Their goal for the week is $5,000,000 in war stamps.
In observing the third annual Newspaper Week, the press will carry out the formal observances in addition to emphasizing the importance of free newspapers in wartime. Many of the nation's papers will add a patriotic touch by floating the American flag on their front pages.
Organizations both inside and outside the newspaper publishing field are cooperating in the celebration. Enlisted for promotion of the observance are civic clubs, advertising agencies, publishers' representatives, trade journals, press associations, wire services, commercial houses, and radio stations.
Aid in Many Drives
Stories and illustrated material directing attention to the part which newspapers are playing in the sale of war bonds and stamps are to be carried during the week. A report recently issued by the Pennsylvania Newspaper Publishers' Association shows that the newspapers have helped in all of the war programs, including rationing, conservation of metals and fats, selective service, morale, blackouts, sale of bonds and stamps, scrap drives, tax problems, USO funds, the Red Cross, rubber, gasoline and fuel oil savings, share-the-ride clubs, nutrition programs, and Army-Navy relief.
Nearly all newspapers will pay tribute to former employees who have entered the armed services. Since the beginning of selective service in October, 1940, a total of 15-876 men and women have left their jobs on 1,251 daily papers. Those in the service are being backed up by an additional 2,153 men and women who have taken government jobs, making a total of 18,029 who have left newspaper jobs for the war effort.
The idea for Newspaper Week was born in Pennsylvania 11 years ago, but only in the past 3 years has it become an annual event.
Dean Reese Is Appointed

Adelane's
Enrollment has dropped 23.1% at New York University. There are just 17,351 students enrolled in the different divisions of the University, compared with 22,586 students of last year. Throughout the University there is a trend toward heavier schedules for all students, with registration being especially heavy in mathematics, physics, biology, Spanish, and in chemistry courses, as well as special war courses.
Bensen Will Lead the Band
Benson Will Lead the Band History has been made at the University of Minnesota with the selection of a freshman as drum major of the University band. Jerry Benson attended North High school in Minneapolis and led an award-winning band. He is the only drum major this year and will lead the military, varsity and pop bands in all parades and exhibitions.

Student Tells Class Of 14 Years In India
Helen Whitfield, a student here from England, who spent 14 years in India, discussed various aspects of Indian life with students in Prof. John Virtue's English literature class yesterday morning. She answered questions relative to Macaulay's essay, "Lord Clive," which the class just finished reading, as well as questions on present day India. the majority of it
Miss Whitfield lived in the Punjab region in Northern India. Her chief contacts with Indians, therefore, were with Mohammedans rather than Hindus. She told the class that religion in India is the basis for rioting, wars, and even their civilization. When asked if she thought the natives would really use passive resistance, Miss Whitfield replied that if a great many natives got together they were likely to forget their purpose and start riots.
Indians Respect English
Indians, as a whole, like and respect the English, said Miss Whitfield, but follow their leader, Ghandi without understanding the reason or the result. Miss Whitfield admitted that she expected an armed conflict between the Mohammedans and Hindus should England give India complete freedom.
Explaining the religions of the two peoples, Miss Whitfield said that the Mohammedans believe in one God while the Hindus worship many. Although there are only 90 million Mohammedans to 300 million Hindus, the Mohammedans are stronger and more pugnacious, and are the ones who make up the Indian-part of the British troops in India.
Town of 25 Whites
Miss Whitfield lived in a small town where white persons numbered 25. She said that Indians were given offices of responsibility in the town's government. Lately the British have been trying to put educated Indians in such positions. However.
Helen Whitfield and her brother came to the United States from England for college, but she hopes to return as soon as possible.
The University extension division, in cooperation with the Topeka night school, will institute classes in education, economics, psychology, and sociology. These classes will be held at the Topeka High School starting Oct. 5.
Topeka To Have Extension Classes
Chancellor Deane W. Malott, when asked for opinion of these offe- the-campus credit courses, replied:
"I think the University's responsibility is more than merely to expect persons who desire an education to come here to obtain it. I believe these courses are a credit to the University as they enable adults and young people alike to obtain training by which they can meet many new problems which are arising. The implications of these problems, which are rapidly being brought forth, are greater than ever before."

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
There were those who before yesterday's game questioned Manager Joe McCarthy's judgment in starting Red Ruffing against the rambunctious Cardinals, but when the smoke of the battle had cleared the wisdom of the pitching choice had been proven. Big Red was the whole show, he stopped the Redbirds in their tracks for eight innings. True, he tired badly in the ninth, but the most amazing thing about his eventual retirement from the mound was that it did not come sooner. Certainly, only Chicago's Ted Lyons, tops among the veterans, can equal the big Yankee in hurling efficiently after years of service in the big show. Ruffing was born in Granville, Ill., on May 3, 1905, and has been in organized baseball since 1923. He bats and throws right-handed, and stands 6 feet high weighing 210 pounds. Big Red has spent 18 complete years in the major and in that time has won more than 250 games. He began his major league career with the Boston Red Sox, and, none too well supporter there, had several lean seasons, twice leading the league in number of games lost. He went to the Yanks in 1930, and since then has been a consistent winner. In 1938 he led the league in a number of victories, and for four consecutive years beginning in 1936, he won more than 20 games. Ruffing earned run average during his pitching span has not been sensational but when the series is on and the chips are down, Charles Herbert Ruffing is very stingy with his hits indeed.
Cardinal fans got some encouragement by the rousing ninth inning rally put on by their favorites. Previously, they had begun to wonder if they had drew another aggregation of hitless wonders such as the Red crews of 1939 and 1940. Redbird fielding was, of course, disappointing, but that can be put down very largely to the fact that all of the Cardinals were playing their first series game, and were naturally nervous. Improved fielding on their part can be expected in future games. Mort Cooper showed flashes of his pre-series form, but on the whole was not effective. The Independence, Mo., native will probably see action again in the fourth game of the series. On the other hand, the older Ruffin will hardly be ready for action that soon. Today it will very likely be Beazley against Bonham. Most writers are inclined to discredit the Cardinal rookie as a series winner, but then anything can happen. Certainly, it would be a mistake to count the Cards out of running this early in the World Series.
At random: The present issue of the Satevepost contains an interesting World Series article by Stanley Frank, top-notch sports scribe . . . Bill Quick, K State back, was recently promoted to the rank of lieutenant in the Aggie ROTC . . . John Hopp, Cardinal first baseman, is the brother of Harry Hopp, ex-Nebraska backfield ace, and has another brother playing with the Cornhuskers this fall . . . Ray Evans suffered a cut in the Marquette game which required several stitches to close, but the star back completed the game and has been out for action at practice sessions regularly this week . . . Put Gene Long, guard, down as one of the tougher members of the Jayhawk grid squad. Helped from the field Saturday with an injured leg, the "Chief" was back in uniform for practice sessions this week, and asking no favors . . . This boy, Charlie Black, is looking better and better at an end post . . . "Phog" Allen is plenty enthusiastic about the sophomore crop which will be out for the cage game this winter. He has his eyes especially upon Schnellbacher and McSpadden . . . Complained one sophomore: "In ROTC we do calisthenies now, and in physical conditioning they teach us infantry drill." . . . Rival Big Six squads had best beware of Iowa State's Royal Lohry, for the talented Cyclone back is headed for a really great year.
Students—Present Activity Tickets
Every student is entitled to a Kansan upon payment of his activity fee. The coupon in the activity book must be filled out and presented at the Kansan business office in the Journalism building. Delivery will start shortly thereafter.
Where there are several students living in the same place there may be no need for every student to get a copy. Under such circumstances a student may agree with his roommate to read one copy and send one copy to parents or friends. The Kansan costs $1.75 per semester by mail but a student already entitled to a copy may have it mailed home for postage cost -50 cents per semester.
Organized houses and rooming houses should gather coupons from members and send a representative to arrange for as many Kansans as the house may desire. At other schools it has been found that from 30 to 50 percent of the number in the house is usually an adequate number of papers.
Our carrier routes must be made up in the near future so attend to this matter at once. After a week or so distribution will be made only to those whose slips have been turned
in to the Kansan business office. No distribution boxes will be maintained on the campus.

The Kansas team will be attempting to make it two in a row for Big Six squads over the Big Seven aggregation, the Pioneers having fallen last week before the Iowa State Cyclones, 7 to 0. before he completes his college ca-
As chief threat to the Jayhawk victory plans looms Bob Girtin, sensational Denver freshman back. The Pioneers this fall are among the aggregations utilizing freshman talent, in view of the football material shortage caused by service calls.
Hone for Better Punting
Girtin has sparked the Denver attack in both of the Pioneers' games, so far this season. Against Colorado Mines, he ran wild on a muddy field, as he and his team-mates downed the Miners 21 to 0. Last week the freshman back gave Iowa State men many a bad moment with his fine running and passing.
Jayhawk coaches are hoping for improved punting against the Pioneers, as word of the sensational booting of Denver's Leon Dinner reaches their ears. Dinner, an end, drops back into the backfield on fourth downs, and boots the pigskin high and far.
CARL'S
GOOD CLOTHES
In addition to Girtin, two other freshmen are scheduled to see considerable action for the Rocky Mountain team. They are Tom Saracino, fine backfield prospect, and Joe Cribari, rookie center who may become one of Denver's all-time greatest if not called to the service
before he completes his college career.
The Crimson and the Gold will not have to depend entirely upon freshmen, however, as 12 varsity lettermen have returned from last year's team, which won four games, tied two, and lost three. After a slow start last fall, the Pioneers became one of the powerhouses of the Rocky Mountain sector.
Use "T" Formation
Denver's offensive formations are patterned off the famous T formation of the Chicago Bears, with one of the halfbacks criss-crossing to either side and taking the ball on more than half of the Pioneer plays. A constant threat to opponents who spread out their defense to stop the wide-running halfbacks is the Coloradoans most consistent ground-gaining play this season—a quick sneak by the quarterback through center.
Kansas freshman last night during a scrimmage with the varsity under lights at Haskell stadium patterned their offense after the Denver attack. The varsity also concentrated upon the T in their own attack.
Big gun of the varsity squad last night was Hoyt Baker, sophomore (continued to page seven)
Ex-Jayhawk Stars To Perform With Strong Pro Team
Ralph Miller, former Jayhawk passing ace, will be back in football togs Sunday, when he will start for the against the Camp Gruber service Wichita professional Commandos team. Miller will be stationed at the key quarterback position in the T-formation to be used by the Wichita pros.
Coach of the Commandos is Pete Bausch, another former Kansas great, and one of the top-notch professional centers of recent years. Bauch expects to see considerable action, himself, this fall with the Wichita team.
Still a third former Jayhawker will be on the starting lineup against the soldiers. He will be Monte Merkel, big guard, who has been showing up brilliantly in recent practice sessions of the pros.
The Wichita team is being sponsored by Wichita Aero Parts, a defense firm.
Hill Groups Must Ask For MSC Money Soon
Hill organizations when will require or expect subsidies or appropriations from the Men's Student Council during the current school year should contact members of the MSC Budget and Finance committee as soon as possible, Art Nelson, chairman of the committee, announced today.
The committee is now drawing up a tentative budget for MSC appropriations and expenditures for the 1942-43 school year. Other committee members are Carl Unruh, C. E. Russell, and Bill Porter.

"It's Dull On Campus" Youth Leaves The War For Life As K.U. Student
After shooting down German planes, experiencing air raids in London, and being bombed in mid-ocean, Lieut. Phil Dynan of the Ferry Command., is settling down to college life on the K.U. campus and finding it dull. Not that everyone isn't nice to him, from the Chancellor on down, but "the calmness and quiet of this place is driving $ ^{\textcircled{1}} $ me crazy." Phil admitted.
A brown-haired, brown-eyed 20-year-old with an engaging grin, Dynan seems typical of the young men in our planes, calm, nerveless, and joking. The gunner above him was shot down, and his own life endangered, but Phil can't wait till summer to get back to ferrying planes. Went to Montreal
A Kansas City, Mo., boy who didn't enough hours for piloting, Dyanan went to Montreal in May and applied for tail gunner training. After an 11-week course he was graduated and given the gunner's wings which he sports on his officer uniform.
Late last month Dynan made four trips to England. The flight takes 15 hours, leaving Montreal, stopping at Newfoundland, and on to England. On the first trip several German Messerschmidt's were encountered but nothing happened. The second and third times the ocean was crossed quite peacefully, but on the fourth trip over, the ferry planes were attacked by six German planes. The top turret gunner and radio operator were machine-gunned by one of the Germans before Dynan and another gunner shot down the plane. Two of the planes were downed in about four minutes and the air battle was over.
Shoot or Else
Said Phil: "Since I've been here, the two questions students always ask me are 'Was I scared?' (The answer is definitely 'yes'), and 'What is it like to shoot a man?' My answer is that it is not a nice feeling. But at that moment the only thought that comes to you is that if you didn't kill him, he'd kill you. You suddenly want to live so badly, and the only way you can do that is to shoot.
"The British say that if a man no longer wants to live he is dangerous to have around. In the air force everything depends on team-work."
Phil's own job of tail gumer consisted of laying on his stomach for the 15-hour trip and watch the blue ocean underneath. Food on these crossings consist of small chocolate bars, and hot black coffee. Ice water is taken in the planes to throw in their faces at intervals to counteract the heat.
On his third trip over Dynan went into London and became acquainted with the British people, whom he admires intensely. "They are calm, quiet-loving people who have developed a sense of humor during
the war. The men never talk about the great deeds they've done. They won't talk about the men they've shot down, and feel sorry that it's necessary to kill them. Contrary to popular belief, the English are not sissyfied, but very hard underneath. Air raids are not even a topic of conversation anymore in England. The people go calmly to shelters, read or listen to the radio, and leave just as calmly when it is over." Drons Nute in Germany
Dynan said he talked with a German boy in one of the prisoner camps who had had the R.A.F. bombers drop a note to his girl friend in Germany. "He was a nice boy," Dynan admitted, "but when I started telling him about the freedom we enjoy in America, he wouldn't believe it. 'The Fuehrer never said that' he would insist. The privation in Germany must be terrible. When I showed him several ounces of sugar I had with me, he thought I had the supply for 50 men."
Dynan intends to enter journalism on the Hill. His brother, Tokyo correspondent, is just home from a Japanese prison camp where he spent six months eating raw fish and rice, and losing most of his upper teeth for not signing statements about his good treatment. Phil is in the Army Air Corps reserve and will probably be at the University for two years. He is living at the new men's co-op, 1011 Indiana.

Commentary by the KANSAN Editorials * Features * Patter
No Varsity Sports?
There is a very definite opinion in certain parts of the University physical education department that the present school year will mark the final year of varsity sports for the duration of the war at this University. Radio and the press have repeatedly of late carried the same report for the colleges of the nation as a whole.
It would seem that the report is something more substantial than rumor. It is not that the sound bodies built by sports can no longer be used in this country. In truth, physical fittedness is more important now that even before.
However, transportation difficulties are rapidly increasing. Nation-wide gasoline rationing will not only make the transportation of athletic teams a problem, but will also cut sharply into attendance at sports events and make them a financial burden for the educational institution.
University authorities are certain to decide that there are less expensive and equally efficient means—such as the present physical conditioning course at this school-of building sound bodies.
The physical conditioning course, however, fails to take care of one very essential need—competition. American youths have long thrived on athletic competition, and there is no finer builder of courage and fighting spirit among youths than this competition. In some way, this need must be met.
Now comes one very commendable suggestion—a greatly expanded intramural program. Such a program would meet with no transportation difficulties, and would be comparatively inexpensive. Certainly varsity basketball, football, and track would be missed on the campus.
However, a larger intramural program would go a long way toward filling the gap left by the discontinuation of varsity sports, and would continue the very necessary work of building strong men for Uncle Sam's fighting machine.—J.D.K.
Education Vs. the Axis
In addition to the many former students who have left school to go into the armed forces, more than 120 instructors have resigned from the staff of the University to take positions in their country's services.
The Kansas City medical staff numbered only 210 before the war and seriously feels its contribution of 80 staff members. Evacuation hospital unit No.77 is composed of members of the University Medical School staff and is now somewhere on foreign soil since its training period at Camp Wood.
The remaining faculty soldiers were former professors, instructors, landscape gardeners, linotype operators, etc., from the campus. These men are doing everything from assisting in the OPA to working on camouflage projects.
To prepare the present students for participation in a world at war or for release into a chaotic post-war period, the University has inaugurated new war courses especially applicable at this time.
Upon the request of naval and military authorities, physics, chemistry, and mathematics
Just Wondering
Webster's dictionary defines the word "dear" as "expensive," "costly," or "seance." Now we better comprehend why Hill lads shower aforementioned term so freely upon their favorite co-ed.
courses have been revised and a physical training course for men has been established. New courses in navigation, meteorology, aerial photography, and the reading and interpretation of maps have been added.
Co-eds are taking nutrition courses and are being trained as nurses, laboratory technicians, and occupational therapeutists. Other new University establishments include a war information library to enable students to obtain a better slant on the problems arising during a post-war period and a school for signal corps engineers which trains enrollees for 24 weeks and necessitates a 48-hour a week class attendance.
This University and every other college in the country is contributing to the war effort. It is the purpose of American colleges to prepare the youth of today for the problems of tomorrow and to teach them those things the knowledge of which will enable them to shoulder their share of the responsibilities to come.P.B.

The Sig Alf and the Chi Omega pledge classes did finally walk out Monday night.
At 10:30 p.m. they reuturned. The girls marched back into the chapter house to receive whatever punishment the actives had to deliver—also marched into the house four Sig Alf pledges.
but these four defenseless males had little chance of staying inside with the whole Chi O active chapter endeavoring to toss them out, which they did promptly.
Tuesday the Sig Alf's accused the Chi O's of stealing their beloved trophy (which the sorority has purloined several times). So that night the Sig Alf's stole into the Chi Omega house and took out the amount of furniture that they thought their trophy was worth.
The Chi O's, for retaliation, began immediately to think up dirty tricks to pull on the furniture-thieves.
At 8:30 pm, the Sig Alf's (also probably thinking of the dirty tricks the Chi O's would pull on them) called and said meekly that they would be more than glad to bring back all the furniture.
Things are now peaceful on West Campus Road, or just about as peaceful as they ever were, I guess.

The Delta Gamma pledges walked out Tuesday night, under the escort of the Kappa Sig pledge class. The feature of this story is that the Delta Gamma pledges fully broke every walk-out tradition that ever existed in the chapter.
When the pledges walked out they did none of the traditional trick-playing that usually goes with such an affair. The D. G. active chapter was speechless to find that no beds were torn apart, the cooks were still in the house, the lights still worked, and the house looked as clean as ever.
in the house, the rights still worked, and the house looked as clean as ever. Even for dinner, the actives were served a huge chocolate cake, a gift from the pledge class.
Some bunch of polishers, eh?

We've heard it rumored about an A O Pi pledge who received a letter from a popular brand soap company last week, and thinking it was merely an advertisement, she put it carelessly in her desk.
Sunday, in rummaging through her desk, she ran across it. Just for curiosity, she tore it open and found, not an ad, but a cheek for $106. She had forgotten about entering the contest.
Dolores Grossenbacher, A O Pi, came running into the house when she should have been in a 1:30 class. "Why aren't you in class?" she was asked.
Dolores began to disrobe frantically. Cause of all the excitement. Dolores had been cleaning paint off the floor in her room and had spilled turpentine on her sweater. She wore it to class and came home with two nice burns on her arms.

Coast Guard Is Unsung Hero Keeps 'Em Floating
One branch of the Service that receives a relatively small amount of space in today's war news is the Coast Guard. However, it plays two important parts that bear a close relationship to the Merchant Marine.
Both of these functions have been formally recognized by Congress as essential to the National defense, and are extensions of the peacetime duties of the Coast Guard.
In September, 1938, the United States Maritime Service was established, and by formal agreement between Secretary of the Treasury, Henry Morgenthau, Jr., and the Maritime Commission, the Coast Guard was charged with the administration of this organization.
They are: (1) the training of personnel for merchant ships, and (2) the protection and security of ships and harbors on the navigable waters of the United $ ^{ \textcircled{4}} $ States The annual commission
There are now six training stations, three large training ships and four small training vessels operated by the Coast Guard for the training of merchant marines.
The annual capacity of the training stations is about 5,000 unlicensed men,600 officers,and 500 radio operators. Plans are under consideration for further training facilities to meet emergency needs.
The second function of the Coast Guard, that has a direct national defense relation to merchant shipping, is the security of ships and shipping terminals in our harbors.
(continued to page seven)
This duty is far more complex than the training program due primarily to the many federal, state, and local agencies which have some responsibility for the protection of persons and property.

KFKU Broadcasts Drawing Class Art Goes On The Air
That art can be taught without classroom direction is being demonstrated by the School of Education from 2:40 to 3 p.m. over radio station KFKU. The School of Education is conducting an actual art class over the air.
The purpose of the service is to make available art instruction to rural schools. Before the broadcast, a paper of instruc tion to the teachers of $ \circ $
the schools which listen to the program. After the lesson, the drawings are sent to Miss Maude Ellsworth, instructor of the class, for criticism and comment. The lessons are graded and returned.
All schools that have the facilities can take advantage of semi-weekly instructions, but only schools from Johnson, Shawne, and Douglas county are to submit drawings.
Already Miss Ellsworth has made two broadcasts, and has received many letters and lessons. In order to observe and judge the work to be carried on during the program, pupils from Lawrence grade schools come to the studio and actually witness the directions as they are being broadcasted.

It comes to the Jayhawker Theatre, Sunday for one entire week. The story, simply, honestly, and graphically told as it might be in a dispatch from a bombed English village, is woven around the Ministers and their family, Greer Garson as Mrs. Miniver and Walter Pidgeon as her husband are happily reunited as the public dominated after their outstanding performances in BLOS-GOMS IN THE DUST.

Gertie Who Done Our Cat Dirty?
A mystery walked into the Kansan news room yesterday afternoon and placed itself squarely in the lap of a member of the Kansan staff. The mystery was a small, mangy, black and white cat which the journalist unexplained found in his lap while reading copy.
The cat was soaked with, of all things these days of rationing, oil, and presented a thoroughly matted, jaundiced appearance. It was tentatively named Gertrude Stein because there were many things about it that were incomprehensible
But what the Kansan staff would like to know is: Who did our Gertie dirty?
Flans were immediately set afoot for Gentie's adoption, while an investigation was begun to clear up the mystery surrounding her strange appearance. The questions arose: Where did this peculiar feline come from? Why was she besmirched with oil? As yet these questions remain unanswered, but the crooked finger of suspicion is pointing toward pre-hallow'een pranksters without senses of humor.

COAST GUARD---officers served as Captains of the Port at ten different ports with their authority somewhat limited. Since that time, however, Congress has given the Coast Guard ample and specific authority to enforce all federal laws on navigable waters.
Today every harbor, inlet, river, bay, sound, and open roadstead that forms part of the navigable waters of the United States falls within the jurisdiction of a Coast Guard officer legally detailed as Captain of the Port.
Recently additional regulations have been promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury which materially strengthen the Coast Guard's control over ships and persons using navigable waters.
This authority gives the Captains

From Burlesque to Salon Eastwood's Career Varied
Private Raymond Eastwood, in the 21st Technical School Squadron of the Air Corps at Lowry Fiedl, Colo., formerly professor in the department of drawing and painting, is now doing work far different from that when he first entered the profession. The background of the artist of a one-man show that has been held in the Denver museum and now at the Service Club at Lowry Field is varied and full of contrast. Lowry Field. During World War I
After leaving the Yale School of Fine Arts, and studying at the Art Student League in New York, Mr. Eastwood used his brush and pen in designing titles for the old silent serial pictures; now, he exhibits paintings in the Denver museum while he does camera repair work in aerial photography.
Taught at Girls' School
From designing titles, Private Eastwood went to painting appropriate scenery for burlesque shows. He changed jobs and practiced his profession in a place of more dignified atmosphere when he filled in for an art instructor at the Ethel Walker School for Girls. There he appropriated his mustache and then left the girls to come West to the University.
Sand Dunes Specialty
Since then, Private Eastwood has acted as professor in the department of drawing and painting during the regular school term, and has headed East during the summer. Out along Cape Cod and near Provincetown, the artist lived among the sand dunes, where he pictured in oil the gradation of colors and slopes of the sand, and studies his hobby of ornithology. The protective coloring of birds was a special interest of his, and he has combined the subject in several of his paintings.
On June 22, Professor Eastwood was inducted into the Army Air Corps, and sent to Jefferson Barracks, Mo., and later changed to

Treat For Team
★★★
To See Denver
The University football team, scheduled to have arrived in Denver at 7:50 this morning, had a treat in store for them in addition to the KU-Denver game. Austin McCarty, who was graduated from the School of Law in 1912, had made plans for a trip for the players through the city and into the mountains around Denver.
The coaches were entertained at the Gyro club by the Denver coaches and alumni. Addresses at the dinner were given by the Denver coaches.
On hand for the game will be two carloads of University engineers who are helping with the construction of a large ski-training camp at Pando, Colo.
Women Sing At Annual Festival
The annual lantern parade brought out 370 University women last night for a dinner in the Kansas room and a serenade later at the Chancellor's home.
After the dinner at 6 p.m., Virginia Gsell directed a short song practice before the women lighted Japanese lanterns for the march to the Chancellor's home. Singing as they marched south on Oread, past Fraser and Blake halls, the women congregated in front of the house for the senade.
In addition to the well-known old favorites, songs last night included "The Marine's Hymn" and "Anchors Aweigh."
Mrs. Malott was presented a bouquet of roses by Marge Rader, WS GA president, while the paraders sang "I Love You Truly."
The Chancellor and Mrs. Malott invited the women into their home where additional songs were sung.
Grad Warns Service Life Requires Work
Objections on the part of some University students that the compulsory physical conditioning program for men registered under Selective Service, is not necessary, were answered today by an interview with Lieut. Clint Kanaga, a graduate last spring.
To indicate the necessity for physical conditioning to prepare men in service for the life they are to lead, Kanaga listed some of the activities of the marines in their training. tip-top shape are dead

Students May Aid In Labor Shortage
Chancellor Deane W.Malott announced yesterday that the University would cooperate whole-heartedly with any practical plan proposed by authorities to relieve the serious shortage of labor confronting farmers. Some students may be dismissed from classes to aid farmers in harvesting of vital crops.

Commenting on the relief labor plan, Chancellor Malott pointed out that many problems will have to be overcome before the volunteer farm units can be organized. Definite arrangements for transportation and organization will have to be made before anyone will be dismissed from a University class. The problem of students in technical war training, ROTC medicine, and chemistry also must be worked out before any action can be

Jayhawks Try For First Win Tonight
Bv J. Donald Keown, Kansan Sports Editor
Gwinn Henry will send his victory-hungry Jayhawkers to battle tonight at 8:15 against a question-mark Denver University squad in a game which pre-game dope, such as it is, rates as a tossup.
The Pioneers, using freshmen talent this fall to replace 15 men lost to the services, hold a three-touchdown win over Colorado Mines, and dropped a 7 to 0 game with Iowa State so far this year. Kansas will be trying for its first victory, after losing games to the Iowa Cadets and Marquette.
Kansas victory hopes received a severe blow this week, when Joe Roberts, regular sophomore halfback, sprained his ankle. It is extremely doubtful if Roberts will see much action against Ellison Ketchum's Pioneers. Still another Roberts, Gene, who has been missing from the lineup in early season games because of a knee injury, will see only limited, if any, service tonight.
All women students who swim are eligible to try out for membership in Quack Club. Members will be elected on the basis of swimming ability. Nada Clifton, president, asks those interested to report at the locker room in Robinson gymnasium Saturday at 10 a.m.
Gene Sherwood, rugged plunger, will be moved into the spot vacated by the injuries. Sherwood has seen considerable action in the Iowa Cadet and Marquette games. Another back who will probably see considerable action tonight in an effort to replace the running power lost by the injuries in Kenneth Adams, pony back from Bartlesville, Okla.
Penny Will Start

hawk starting lineup will probably consist of the same men who have started in the previous games. Coach G. Henry has announced that J. Penny, outstanding sophomore prospect, will probably start at
the center post. Ready for relief duty at that position will be Bob Cithens and Walt Sheridan, both lettermen.
Three other Jayhawks who have been on the crippled list this week will probably be ready for full-time service against Denver. They are Gene Long, guard; Carl Hird, tackle; and George Dick, end. Charlie Black, junior end, is expected to make his first appearance of the season against the Rocky Mountain aggregation.

MalottHome is Scene Of U.W.C. Roundup
A "fall roundup" was the theme of the first get-together of the University Women's Club yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Deane W. Malott, president of the club. The unique and picturesque setting was first seen as guests passed through the path (steps on porch) lined with cactus and flower plants and continued throughout the roundup terminating with a
Walking along the path to the ranch, one could see horses and Indians, sculpturing of Bernard "Poco" Frazier, instructor of architecture and design. One Indian "Cherokee," seemed to be surveying the Wakorusa Valley.
The guests were greeted at the door by costumed ranchers, Mrs. Karl Kuersteiner, Mrs. Wayne Replogle, Mrs. Lowell Laudon, Mrs. Bernard Smith, Miss Maude Elliott, Miss Mabel Elliott, Mrs. Richard Koopman, and Mrs. Jan Romary, acting assistant hostesses.
Decorations Suit Occasion
musical presentation of a typical rodeo by the University cowboy band directed by Russell L. Wiley.
Crossing the threshold guests saw the figure of two horses sculptured from Kansas clay reflected from a large mirror. A glance through the door on the left showed a fireplace accented by a huge bowl of grapefruit, white grapes, oranges, and other fruit giving the atmosphere of a secluded corner so restful on stormy nights. In the hall the guests are also greeted by the figure of "Natoma."
Mrs. C. M. Baker, assisted by Miss May Gardner, Mrs. C. M. Young, Mrs. E. F. Engel, and Mrs. John Ashton, served refreshments of puch, and chocolate chip cookies. They were aided by Posy and Beatrice Buehler, Joanne Hessler, and Claudia Anderson in their colorful blouses and skirts.
Rodeo Is Depicted
The guests were 'hered' through the house to the sun porch where they were spectators at the rodeo.
Depicting an actual rodeo, Mr. Wiley presented trick riders, bronco bashing, and fancy riding. For the band concert, "Springtime in the Rockies," "Oh! You Beautiful Doll," and "Jingle, Jangle, Jingle" were presented.
"Jingle, Jangle, Jingle," was sung by Bob Jenkins, Bob Forman and Harry Johnson, members of the band.
Fomann Ville, director of the rodeo thought a little explanation was needed for the half costumed band. "No cowboy can wear a uniform unless he owns a cow," he said, "and some don't own cows and some admit they can't keep a cow in the pen." If a member owns two cows he can put one pants-leg inside his boot, and if he owns three cows he

While roping calves, the band sang "Home on the Range" with Cowboy Clayton Krehbiel. soloist. Forman Wiley described the trick and fancy roping, Roman Riders and the clowns and bulls. He introduced "Smoky" the band's favorite horse.
The rodeo closed with "Till We Meet Again." It was worked out so that listeners could easily imagine themselves in the arena watching the cowboys and bullfighters. A red flower in the background waving over the heads of members of the band reminded one of, "Ferdinand the Bull." Mr. Wiley and his band have presented the musical depiction in Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, and other states.
Mrs. Norman Plummer was in charge of all arrangements, for this first informal greeting of the University and its new members.

Students at the University of Nebraska needn't go early to get seats at the football games. They have reserved seats. Students who purchased season athletic tickets in blocks sit in locations drawn by numbers at an official drawing in the coliseum. Groups are given numbers at an official drawing in the coliseum. Groups are given numbers, and locations of their sections are chosen according to the order in which their numbers are drawn. The seats may be just above the box seats—or they may be just below the sky-line, depending entirely on luck.

Speaking of B.M.O.C.'s — John Echternach, a full-time riveret at North American Aircraft corporation at Englewood, Calif, subscribes
$40 of each weekly pay check to buy war bonds.
When asked how he could do it, he expained, "It costs me nothing to live. I get my room and board for managing the Beta Theta Pi fraternity. You see, I'm also a full-time student at University of Southern California, at Los Angeles."
And just to keep from idling his moments away, John also serves as the salaried manager of the campus humor magazine.

Thirty-eight stars, representing graduates, former students, and former staff members of the University High School now in the armed services, are on the service flag soon to be on display at the high school, it was announced today by Madison Coombs, principal of the school.
The flag, a gift to the high school by the 1942 graduating class, is being corrected by the Girl Scouts of the school under the direction of Miss Ruth Litchen, supervisor of social sciences. Because the list of the men who formerly attended the school and are now in the armed services is not complete, Mr. Madison is asking that any person knowing of a former student or teacher who is now serving in the armed forces call the school.

A small but peppy crowd of students at the Union Pacific station last night cheered the team off to Denver.
After an enthusiastic fifteen minute rally, the train pulled out of the station as students finished singing the Alma Mater and chanted the Rock Chalk. Cheerleaders led the yells, and approximately half the Jay Janes represented their organization.

Pressbox Ramblings
By J. Donald Keown
Few sports writers thought he could do it, but rookie John Beazley came through, and now the Cardinals are very much back in the series. After resting today, the two teams will tangle again on Saturday at New York, and its anybody's guess as to the starting hurlers. Perhaps the nods will go to Chandler and White. If such occurs, then a pitching battle would seem to be in store for series followers. Cardinal hitting yesterday was once again somewhat disappointing and it would seem that the Redbirds should still have plenty of basehits left in their bats. Only in the ninth inning of the first game have they shown any really impressive hitting. Nevertheless, Beazley proved yesterday that Card pitching is all they said it was. Saturday's game will get under way at 12:15 with Mutual again broadcasting.

Most observers are picking them this way — Alabama to take a tough one from Mississippi State, T.C.U. to down Arkansas, Army to beat Lafayette, Tulane to rout Auburn, Baylor to down Oklahoma Aggies, California to nose out Oregon State, Cornell to take Colgate after considerable trouble, Missouri to defeat Colorado, Kansas over Denver by a touchdown, Duquesne to get past Holy Cross, Fordham to beat Tennessee, Georgetown to beat Mississippi, Notre Dame to take Georgie Tech into camp, Pennsylvania to rebound against John Harvard, Indiana to nose out Ohio State, Great Lakes to beat Iowa, Nebraska to take a close one from Iowa State, L.S.U. a slight nod over Rice, Michigan over Michigan State, Minnesota to take the powerful Iowa Seahawks (strictly off the cuff), Navy to defeat Virginia, Texas to edge out Northwestern, Tulsa and Oklahoma even up, and Oregon over Washington State.
At random: Clint Kanaga, former Kansan sports editor, and now of the marines, is on the Campus visiting with old friends. Kanaga was probably best known as one of the best intramural scribes ever to write for the Kansan . . . The intramurtal touch football competition will get underway sometime next week . . . Kenneth Adams, one of the smaller Jayhawk backs, is looking better and better as the season goes on . . . Tip is that Gene Roberts will not be used tonight unless needed to bolster the Kansas running attack . . . Marquette coaches were displeased with their charges showing last Saturday, and their attitude toward tomorrow's big game with Wisconsin has changed from one of optimism to determination . . . Marquette athletic director Conrad M. Jennings states that traveling conditions encountered by the Hilltoppers on their trip here were the worst he ever experienced, and that if the school continues intercollegiate competition after this year it will have to refrain from long-distance schedules . . . Kansas denominational colleges have taken the first step toward discontinuation of interscholastic football next year..
Psychology
Brown Fooled
By Paranoic
Even psychologists are fooled, explained Prof. J. F. Brown, of the department of psychology, in a recent lecture.
Brown went on to describe the time he had been travelling about the country in his car investigating psychology aspects of the depression. He would pick up hitch-hikers and get their views on the prosperity that was just around the corner.
One day he picked up a well-dressed man who carried an expensive-looking leather bag and began to talk to him. Brown admitted he was a psychologist at the University of Kansas, which drew the admission from the stranger that he was a field investigator for Leland Stanford University, seeing the country from the hitchhiker's vantage point. Brown was so inferred that he immediately invited the fellow psychologist to the University and began to gather together a sum of
Brown immediately dropped all preparations when the fellow came into his room one day and tried to sell him some stock in in enterprise that would bring this country out of the depression by selling corrugated iron houses to Peruvian Indians.

A total of 204 individual and team entries will compete in the men's intramural fall sports program this year, it was revealed today by Henry A. Shenk, director of men's intramural sports.
The events, which include both 6 and 11-man football, team tennis, golf, team horseshoes, and handball, will get underway some time the latter part of next week.
Intramural Sports Start Next Week
At 4:30 Tuesday afternoon a meeting of the teams entered in the football events will be held on the intramural playing field, at which the rules to be followed will be explained.
Ten Men Out For Opening Cage Practice
BUY WAR STAMPS
The first basketball practice of the year was held yesterday afternoon in Robinson gym with ten men reporting, Dr. Forrest C. Allen, coach, reported today.
A defensive fundamental drill was stressed by Dr. Allen at the practice session, with each of the men out being required to play the role of solitary guard against two attacking forwards.
THE HALL OF FAME
JOHN BUESCHER
The last five minutes of the hour-and-a-half session were spent in a short scrimmage. Members of the "irregular" five defeated the "regular" team 8 to 0, with Bill Forsyth, Paul Carpenter, and John Short standing out for the victors. Bill Brill and Bob Fitzpatrick played good ball for the losers.
Dr. Allen announced today that the December 15 game with Creighton would be played here at Hoch auditorium, instead of in Omaha as stated on the basketball schedule. The March game with Creighton

will then be played in the Nebraska city.
The move makes the Creighton game the opening home contest for the Jayhawk cagers. Dr. Allen pointed out that University fans will now be allowed to witness two games before the Christmas vacation period on the home court.
Early Home Games
Marvin Sollenberger and Dick Miller, both lettermen, will not report for the cage game this winter, the basketball coach announced. Sollenberger, regular last year, has but one semester of eligibility left, and decided to pass up the court game this year in favor of concentrating on his studies.

Miller is the brother of Ralph Miller, ace forward of last year's squad. Miller also passed up football this fall.
Several more men are expected to report next week for the court game. Among them are expected to be John Buescher, ace letterman, and Harold McSpadden, one of the more promising members of the freshman crop.
Cagers on Grid Squad
Dr. Allen pointed out that 11 basketball men are at present out for football, and will not be able to report for the winter sport until after the completion of the football season. This will leave them less than two weeks in which to prepare for the opening game of the basketball season against the Gardner Naval Training station.
Basketball practice sessions will continue to be held on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons of each week, Allen said. No credit is given in
(continued to page seven)
Frosh Cagers Report On Wednesday
The first freshman basketball practice will be held next Wednesday, Dr. Forrest C. Allen, coach announced today.
The opening practice session will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. in Hoch auditorium. Practices for the first-year men will then be held regularly each Monday and Wednesday evening.
Freshmen reporting for the court game are requested to bring their own equipment, since the rubber shortage has made the obtaining of athletic shoes and other pieces of equipment difficult. Dr. Allen pointed out that most of the freshmen will possess such equipment for their physical conditioning class.
Dr. Allen will personally coach the freshman squad during the first few practice sessions.
Milt Allen, son of Dr. Allen and a former Jayhawk basketball star who coached last year's fresh squad, will not be available for the task this winter, since he is employed full-time at the Hercules Powder company, and does not arrive home from his employment until a late hour each evening.
Murray Brown, hired earlier as freshman coach, has joined the athletic staff at Topeka High School, where he will assist with the basketball tutege.
Dr. Allen indicated that two Jaya-
hawk lettermen who will not compete this year—Marvin Sollenberger and Dick Miller—might later be placed in charge of the freshmen. Both men are well acquainted with the Allen system of coaching.
Pre-season expectations for a freshman squad are good, according to Allen. However, much of the promising fresh material is at present out for freshman football, and will not report for the court game until after the completion of the grid season.

Air Force Officer Warns --which all of the air force bombardiers now must pass in order to become a member of the hand picked group which will enter this Advanced Flying School or one of the other great Army Air Forces bombardier schools.
Future Bombardiers Need Math Courses
"College students who will make the best pompardiers are those who study math and lots of it," Lt. Col. William M. Garland, director of training at Uncle Sam's newest bombardier university, opening at San Angelo, Texas, this week, tells those who ask him what to study in order to realize the thrill of emptying bomb bays over Hitler's Eurone.
"As far as bombing is concerned, this is a war of mathmeticians," Col. Garland says.
But for those who consider math a grind he adds this note of hope. "You don't have to like math to be a top-flight bombardier—you merely must know how to use figures." Stumble on Arithmetic
According to Col. Garland, simple grammar school arithmetic is a major stumbling block to many aviation cadets who hope to make the grade on the tough examinations
"When a bombardier in a Flying Fortress misses a target the mission is a complete loss," the director of training says. "Under combat conditions the bombardier has less than a minute and often no more than 30 seconds in which to recalculate his data and get his bombs away at
a target that may be ten or twenty thousand feet below. Minor miscalculations multiply tragically with higher altitudes. At 10,000 feet an error in calculation of airplane speed of only ten miles an hour results in a miss of 364 feet. Bombs that miss the target don't even annoy the enemy."
Slide Rules Help
Algebra, geometry, trigonometry and physics are invaluable to a bombardier, according to Col. Garland. Of major importance also is knowing how to read aerial photos, charts and maps. Every bombardier thoroughly studies maps and charts of his target and surrounding territory before starting a mission. Often landmarks must be memorized. Slide rules and other rapid mathematical computers are used constantly.
"A quick figuring bombardier can give Hitler a headache every night."

CAPITAL TO CAMPUS--being used instead of providing new facilities in many areas.
"The government without question considers them a wartime necessity and it is using them as they never have been used before. Moreover, it is indicating in no uncertain terms that it wants these institutions to carry on their regular training and educational programs so that we may have a supply of men who can meet the challenges of next year.
"Such a policy requires from uni-
 universities adaptability, resourcefulness, an awareness of national needs, selflessness and devotion to the national effort, and willingness to put first things first during a period of world conflict," he asserted.
"It does not want to face the fact of a lost generation of educated leadership." America's national policy at this time contemplates the maintenance of vigorous and comprehensive educational programs, not in spite of the fact that we are at war, but because the war effort and the peace effort to follow require such services as universities have to offer, Dykstra explained.
"To do this does not require the sacrifice of standards or the relinquishment of long time objectives. It means only a temporary redirection of certain activities and changing emphasis where it becomes necessary.
"Our task in general remains the same, the education of the new generation, the making of citizens, the pushing outward of the boundaries of knowledge, and the serving of our country and our generation in practical ways, which will make our national life more decent and wholesome."

At no time in human history have universities seemed so important in a national effort as they are right now in the United States, Dykstra maintained.

"Their laboratories are being used 24 hours a day and their plants in general are being made available for national service. Their facilities are

Sh-h-h, a Secret
They do a gallant service, these girls in the army service. They type, they cook, they keep the post library, they drive trucks, they do everything but actual fighting. Already the country's punsters have found them useful in the creation of new and better jokes.
The Women's Army Auxiliary Corps was created for the purpose of having a women's organization for the duration of the war, plus six months. They would do auxiliary work, hitherto done by men, so that more men could be available for the fighting forces. A fine idea.
Then came the question of issuing clothing to the women soldiers. The stuffed-shirts in charge couldn't decide whether to issue girdles to members of the women's army, or to let them bulge. That bit of altercation was played up by the press of the nation. The last we heard, the gals were still girdled. It also took time to decide if the girls should wear nighties or pajamas. Now they can wear either.
Upon the official sanction of the organization came the appointment of Oveta Culp Hobby, and her picture showing her efficiently holding a cradle phone was gazed upon by millions throughout the nation. Just think, a woman colonel. The women got to Des Moines before their uniforms did, so they marched in civilian clothing. More publicity.
A couple of the women went A.W.O.L. over the weekend and were picked up by the Military Police at Leavenworth. That didn't pass unnoticed. Women who join the forces are given all sorts of publicity in the local papers.
The country feels that they know just about all there is to be known about their women's army. But not all has been told about the WAAC's. The War Department has decreed that there shall be no publicity about the unmentionables of the WAAC's. Obviously, a military secret.
Litvinoff: Stalin's Spokesman
Maxim Litvinoff, U.S.S.R. ambassador to the United States, has always warned the world against Hitler. From Hitler's very beginning, Litvinoff was the public spokesman in Russia against the Nazi.
After March, 1936, when Germany remilitarized the Rhineland, he was extremely pessimistic about world peace and was confident that Hitler would continue aggression.
Litvinoff, because he had so openly opposed all Hitler did, was dropped from power in 1939 when Stalin signed a peace pact with Hitler, but reappeared immediately after the Nazi invasion of Russia.
Since he had always urged a world alliance against the Nazis, he was by far the best suited to represent Russia at Washington when the war center shifted there.
On his way to Washington early last December, the new ambassador stopped at Hawaii and in the Philippines. There he told American officials that Japan would strike at any time. Litvinoff left Pearl Harbor on December 6.
This sincere little man, who puts the advancement of his country above everything, hardly looks the part of an ambassador. He is 65 years old and is short and fat, with a homely yet jovial face.
He is typically Russian, being at once "honest and cunning, simple and inscrutable, irascible and patient, practical and idealistic."
It's a disgrace that so many of the present generation have no respect for age unless it is in bottled form.
Just Wondering
Under this complicated personality lies a shrewd mind, which is constantly being put to test in his job—to act as Stalin's spokesman in working with Roosevelt and Churchill to determine the present strategy and Lend-Lease agreements of the United Nations.
When the war ends, Litvinoff is guaranteed a voice (and a strong one) in the settlement of world affairs.-M.O.
The Leavenworth Times has found the golden lining of the cloud of tire rationing. Stopping autos from diminishing the tire supply will stop autos from diminishing the pedestrian supply, the Times believes. However, it adds, maybe those who like to drive wildly think pedestrians are expendable.
At the second anniversary celebration of the Tri Partite pact in Berlin Joachim von Ribentrop, who before the war was a high pressure wine salesman, announced that the Russian war had solved the food problem in Germany and Italy . . . Naturally—no food, no problem.

Colleen Poorman, college senior and member of Mortar Board, attended the MSC-WSGA dinner Tuesday night. She lost her Board pin somewhere, as near as she could tell, in a banquet room in the Union building.
Wednesday morning, the janitor found a Mortar Board pin in the room in which she believed she lost hers. But on the back of the pin was engraved the name "Cornelius."
According to records, no woman by the name of Cornelius ever belonged to the K. U. chapter of Mortar Board.

The Sig Ep pledges don't do things by halves, as proved by their walk-out (25 hours) which began at 6 a.m. Wednesday morning and lasted until 7 a.m. Thursday.
All the actives being asleep on the dorm at the time of the revolt, the pledges locked the dorm door, nailed it tighter, then for good measure, put on some padlocks.
Larry Stream, college sophomore, acted as hero of the active chapter when he dropped out of the dorm window and went around the house to pry open the dorm door and let out the trapped Sig Ep actives.
The class of adolescents also fixed the house telephones so that they wouldn't "talk," swiped the glasses of all the members wearing them, and sent the cook away (who came back for fear the actives would starve).
The pledges spent the evening hours in Topeka.
Those Sig Ep's are the darndest guys to go to Topeka. Every time you hear of them going anywhere, it's always to Topeka. They must know of something over there that no one else has yet discovered.

The Sigma Nu pledges this year presented the historic Sigma Nu moose head to the ladies of their choice, the Alpha Chi's. That was Tuesday night.
The Alpha Chi's (half asleep) trooped out onto their serenade porch and listened for a while to the men chant "Alpha Chi's, we want our moose head and Bambil"
But the sleepy Alpha Chi's were reluctant to part with the nice noggins so they told the Sigma Nu's to go jump in the lake.
At 6 a.m.yesterday morning the Sigma Nu active chapter called at the sorority house and demanded their moose head—along with a fawn head, called Bambi.
In the end, a contract was signed stating that the women should give back immediately the moose head, then after the party the Sigma Nu's were to give in their honor, they were to get back the head of little Bambi.
Then the Sigma Nu's got business-like.

In Scrap Drive Kansas Vs. Nebraska On The Gridiron
The Governors of Kansas and Nebraska bet each other a $25 war bond that their state would exceed the other's in the scrap drive. The $25 war bond will then be auctioned off to the highest bidder at the Kansas-Nebraska football game to be held here on Oct. 31.
Do you know what the Governor of Nebraska said to the Governor of Kansas? In so many words, neither do we. But the result of such a conversation is known.
So, Kansans, we not only have to beat Nebraska in football, but also must exceed them in collecting old scrap. Are we to let the Huskers find that they have more scrap in Nebraska than we have in Kansas?
College students may have the idea that all their old scrap is at home. What about these old, exhausted, so - called automobiles, which would no doubt take the
shortest route to the scrap pile and collapse with a sigh of relief if they could but run.
Surely a student can get little enjoyment in taking his girl out in an old wreck and then having something drastic happen to the jalopy just as they are driving along a lonely, country road. By simply handing his car over to the scrap drive committee, he is able to at-

Three Balances Listed By Koelb
"Balances" was the topic presented by the Reverend Howard E. Koelb of the First Baptist Church to the pharmacy class at 11:30 Friday, in their weekly talks conducted by a guest speaker.
Balances seem to have vanished stated Reverend Koelb, and the pharmacy students should realize that the mood today should be "all out" now, to prevent "all being lost" later. It rests with the pharmacy students to use precise balances to exterminate possible dangers later. Those balances which are of greatest importance today are the following:
2. One between what you want to do and what others desire. Eliminate the private line of endeavor—which is the student in relation to
ers. This can be achieved best by realizing not what we desire most but what we want when we are at our peak of proficiency.
2. The second balance is freedom and responsibility. The universe today is divided because overemphasis has been placed on "rights." The owrid has not solved the problem of freedom and responsibility. If rights are overemphasized, we can, and will lose them.
3. Responsibility for and responsibility to distinguish between what we need and what others need of us. Responsibility "for can lead to dictatorship or destruction of the proper spirit.
The responsibility "for", becomes real and constructive through response to welfare, humanity and God. 4. We are a moral universe. For better or for worse we will never be the same again as we are now.
Life will not be best by employing these balances, but if we see ourselves weighed in the balance, life's problems will be worked out.

Make Plastics
★★★
Use Soybeans
Ames, Iowa, (ACP) — Four plastic products developed from farm products and farm wastes in laboratories of the engineering experiment station of Iowa State college, and showing definite commercial possibilities, have been announced by Dr. O R Sweeney, research professor of chemical engineering at the college.
In general, Dr Sweeney says these products could be substituted at a low cost for phenolic plastics in brown and black and possibly dark red colors. They compare favorably with the phenolic plastics in strength, appearance and water resistance.
The first is a soybean meal plastic which has excellent strength and may be molded by compression molding. Two are made from corncob resins. They have good strength and can be used in constant contact with water. The fourth is a hydrolyzed cornstalk plastic which has excellent strength, good appearance and good water resistance.
In the laboratory, the raw material costs for these plastics ranged from 3 to 6 cents per pound.
YWCA - YMCA Hold Fellowship Supper
The first Fellowship Supper of the YWCA and YMCA was served last evening at Henley house, under the leadership of Persis Snook, Jud Townley and Miss Beulah Morrison of the department of psychology who is president of the advisory board this year. This was the first of a series of suppers which will extend over a period of two months. They will be held at various places including Henley house and homes of members of the Advisory Board. Each time a group of 30 students, 15 women and 15 men, will be chosen from the YM and YW membership lists. Following the supper, the leader for the evening will outline the Y program for the year. This in turn will be followed by group singing and a period of playing various get-acquainted games.
Janie Lorimer, chairman of the committee for the fellowship suppers has chosen the following people as co-chairmen to act as leaders of these social affairs: Betty Learned, Jean Oyster, Virginia Stevenson, Ruth Kelly, Wendell Tompkins, Bill Chestnut, Ned Cushing, and Stan Krieder.
steel. She contributed this small amount, justifying herself with the thought that if all of the 2500 homes in her city would contribute 7 ounces of steel, the material collected would contain more than one-half ton of metal, which would make a lot of ammunition.
Under provisions of this program sector directors and sector captains will be appointed to see that the collection of salvage is continuous. The 12 women who are to head this group have just attended "salvage school" in Washington and will soon report for duty.
Much of the canvassing of towns and communities will be handled by women. The canvassing by the women is to be put into effect through a program proposed by the War Production Board.
Thus, all over the nation, the call is for scrap. Oh, by the way, any old or new German aircraft or tanks will be highly appreciated by the salvage committees!

This Sunday Protestant churches will observe world communion service. For five years the churches through the world have set aside the first Sunday in October for this occasion. Next to Easter Sunday, this observance brings more people to the churches than any other time. The home ministers of the students write to the students and urge that they participate in the communion. It is expected that even the countries under the Axis domination will join in the services. The missionary countries as Africa, India, and China behold the day with respect and reverence.

Co-Eds Drop Sophistication Comfort Over Glamor
By MARY MORRILL
So this year's crop of freshmen was to be different? Not the usual combination of skirt, sweater, and nature-take-her-course hair; something new, something which floated in an aura of glamour, passing out A recitations and civilian morale! Seasoned Jayhawkers sneered at the idea, but nevertheless they worried.
All summer, the atmosphere surrounding Mt. Oread's peak was charged with anxiety. doubt and suspicion concerning Miss co-ed of fall '42. It remained charged until approximately Sept. 22. At that point rain fell from the Kansas skies, veteran Jayhawkers uncrossed their toes and fingers and mid-west fashion authorities crept back into their shells. (The actions were simultaneous.)
The why-for runs as follows: Upon the advent of damp weather impeccably groomed coeds abandoned their first impression finery and denned revesibles. The reversibles were mussed up, very mussed up, Jayhawkers told fashion authorities who had advocated the serious and sophisticated co-ed to go to. As any fool could plainly see, KU gals were going to be their comfortable old selves this year per usual. And that was that.
Per usual the Jayhawkers were right. Skirts, sweaters, saddles and moccasins are again law. No broom stick back uniforms or matronly frocks for Mt. Oread women, war or no war. Co-eds here will do their bits in ordinary college array and the nation will be so much the better.
But don't take it from this that campus fashion for the current year is a steriotyped reproduction of the 1841 fads. The influx of new students brings a myriad of bang-up odds and ends.
One innovation which crept out of the closet for good that first rainy day is the jeep hat. A crumpled up specimen of millinery, the jeep hat doesn't exactly shed water, but it is heartily recommended for whenever the sun isn't out.
If your roommate's up and coming she'll be wearing a heavy gold or silver chain with sweaters. Be sure to borrow this chain. It's tops in campus trinkets. If said notion has a heavy bracelet to match, so much the better. You can borrow that, too.
Then there are those ever popular odds and ends. Such as: large velvetene bows in one's hair, lapel pins on sleeves instead of lapels, brothers plaid stockings, ear rings, and so on down the variety counter.
JAYHAWKS TRY—
(continued from page one)
sophomores, and one freshman will probably make up the start lineup for the Pioneers tonight. One of the seniors, big Don Carlson, was chosen as an all-Big Seven tackle last fall, and is expected to cause the Kansas forwards no end of trouble.
Kansas Heavier
Should the injured Kansans be able to start, the Jayhawks will carry both a weight and experience advantage into the game. The Kansas line would average 200 pounds, while the Denver forwards average 189 pounds. The Kansas backs average 185 pounds and the opposing backs tip the scales at an average of 175 pounds.
Experienced lettermen will start in six of the seven line positions. Holding down the center post, however, will be the sensational freshman, Joe Cribari, who last fall was an all-state Colorado choice while at Salida High School.
Four experienced men are likely to be given the starting call in the Pioneer backfield. They will be headed by Howie Schechtel, 164-pound scooter, who whips a mean pass with his left hand.
Frosh May Star
Expected to enter the Denver line up early in the game, however, are two sensational freshman backs who already this year have given Pioneet opposition plenty of headaches. The rookie backs are Jack Gittin and Tom Saracino. Both were given all-state ratings during their high school careers, and both men are dangerous passers as well as hard runners.
Last week, before bowing to the Iowa State Cyclones, the Pioneers pushed their rivals all over the field in the first half of the game. A brilliant last half Iowa State rally, led by Royal Lohry, spelled defeat however for the Big Seven aggregation. Iaithawks Back Saturday

(continued from page one) equipment was added, until we were doing all of these loaded with full equipment. The obstacle courses were very much like the ones you have here at KU. These fellows ought to take a couple of hours of conditioning every day to get in shape."
About discipline, Kanaga says, "I learned early to keep my mouth shut. We have to shine our shoes about five times a day. One sergeant found a boy who didn't have his shined, and when he looked at mine I said 'I've got mine shinned up pretty good.' I think this irritated him, because he said they didn't look too good to him, and I was given two hours of heavy marching orders just for mouthing off.
Sergeants are Tough
"Another time I was sent around the field (a half mile) in double time because I looked down the line one morning after we had been drilling for several hours. One time we stood at attention for 45 minutes, and during that time I looked down once and up again, and spent three hours copying the rules on how to stand at attention. I had to sleep with my rifle for two nights, and one fellow had to carry his rifle with him everywhere for a whole week because he didn't have it cleaned properly.
"Another time the sergeant came down the line and noticed one fellow with a shirt pocket unbuttoned. The guy had to take the button off, sew it on a towel, take it to the sergeant who tice it off the towel and told the fellow to sew it on is shirt again, and repeat the process ten times.
Marine Always Buy
Marine Always Busy
"We are always kept busy. The place is kept spic and span, cleaner than a hospital. We never have time
to do much else—about an hour during the day to glance at the papers or write letters. When you get away you really appreciate and enjoy the letters from home. Sometimes on weekends7 we can catch up with the news, but that is the only time."
About future training Kanaga says, "We do not feel we are in as good shape yet as we want to be. We want to be able to do double time all day long, and we probably will be by the time we push off."
Kanaga is a former Kansan sports editor, Ku Ku, and was chairman of the Kansas Relays committee last spring.
NEW RESIDENCE-
(continued from page one) when he came here as a professor of English.
Early in the fall of 1899 a vacancy in the department of English at the University was reported to Princeton's five graduate students in English. Four of them considered Kansas as too far west and the dangers from Indians too great. When the others declined, Hopkins came with the instructions that if he did not like Kansas he could return to the East.
Graduates Feared Indians
Hopkin's contributions to the University during in his 48 years of teaching in many and various fields. In athletic activities he helped to organize the first football team. When he came to Lawrence, football had never been played at the University. In 1890 groups of students chose sides and played so-called football with Baker and Kansas City YMCA. At the end of the season it was decided to organize an athletic association and have an official football team. Hopkin Managed Team

coach of the new team. The University went through the season without a defeat. In 1892 the team journeyed to Denver, where it won a 20-6 victory over the Denver Athletic Club. Hopkins was also one of the group who organized the Inter-state Football Association. This organization developed into what was later known as the Missouri Valley Conference.
Professor Hopkins work in the English department included substituting contests in debate for the traditional oratorical contest and the establishment of courses in journalism. Through his endeavors, both speech and journalism were established in independent departments.
Founded Teachers Association
Hopkins founded the Kansas Association of Teachers of English, and established the Kansas English Bulletin, of which he was editor and publisher for five years. Later he helped with the organization of the Association of Kansas College Teachers of English.
In 1900 Hopkins was the god-father of a literary organization of college students. This organization, the American College Quill Club, became a national society in 1914 with branches extending at the present time from the Atlantic to the Pacific. He also named and helped with the christening of the Rhadamanthi Society of the University.
Was Popular Lecturer
Hopkins has given educational addresses in ten states besides Kansas. He was one of the first lecturers on the subjects of American literature and literary criticism when extension work was introduced at the University.
A member of Phi Beta Kappa, he was also a charter member of the American Association of University Professors, a member of the Modern Language Association, and of the

Freshman May Volunteer
Upper classmen cannot take part in the plan without consultation with federal officials because of the fact that the University is cooperating with the government in speeding up training of men who have enlisted in reserve groups, and many of these men are now attending school on deferments.
"At the present time it appears that the freshmen would form the likely volunteer relief labor pool," said Chancellor Malott, "because the majority of them have not enlisted in the navy or marine reserve."
Wayne Replogle, head freshman coach, and Dr. Forrest C. Allen, basketball coach and head of the department of physical education, approved the proposal as a good conditioner.

Committee Rules No Cuts Allowed In Conditioning
No cuts will be allowed in physical conditioning classes and six unexcused absences will result in dismissal from the University.
That is the gist of the rules passed by the committee on exemption from physical conditioning for both men and women and will go into effect immediately, Dr. F. C. Allen revealed yesterday.
The rules in full are as follows:
(1) Students will be expected to attend all sessions of the training program except when excused through a signed statement from the University Health Service. No other type of excuse will be accepted for absences. (2) When a student has as many as three unexcused absences, he will be required to report to the exemption committee.
(3) Further absences or other evidence of deliberate non-participation in the program may result in the withdrawal of the student from the University. (4) Any student who has more than six unexeused absences will be subject to dismissal from the University.
The members of the committee are A. J Mix, professor of botany, chairman, Bert A. Nash, professor (continued on page eight)
Vertebrate Geology Group Finds Fossils
Dr. Claude W. Hibbard, curator of vertebrates at Dyche museum, is now assembling fossils, taken from Pleistocene beds in Clark county and adjacent areas. These fossils were excavated during a three month field trip last summer.
Included in the collection are fossils of shrews, lemmings, voles (bobtailed meadow mice), prairie dogs, frogs, toads, salamanders, birds, snails, and gophers. The specimens were taken from dirt collected beneath volcanic ash deposits in Clark county and southwestern Kansas.
The dirt was stored in sacks and later spread on specially made wire and canvas covered racks to be dried. Once dry, the dirt was fed into washers. In flowing through the washer, the water dissolved the dirt, leaving the fossils.
The bones were then arranged to dry on towels after which they were picked up with tweezers and packed carefully in bottles.
The project was sponsored in part by the Geological Society of America. Men who made the trip are Dr. A. B Leonard, professor of zoology, George Rinker, college senior, Henry Hildebrand, college junior, Jack Twente and Dr. Hibbard.
George O. Foster, aged 71 died at 4:30 o'clock Saturday afternoon in a Lawrence hospital after an illness of several months. Mr. Foster, registrar emeritus of the University, probably more than anyone connected with the University, was symbolic of the institution for the people of Kansas.
Mr. Foster was connected with the University staff for 52 years, 44 of which he served as registrar. He was succeeded last April as registrar by Laurence C. Woodruff, who was appointed to serve as registrar in the absence of James K. Hitt, who was called into military service Started As Clerk
George Was Registrar Served School Half Century
Foster came to the University of Kansas on October 1, 1891, as a clerk and stenographer in the office of Chancellor F. H. Snow, and served in this capacity until 1897 when he became acting registrar. In 1898.
He received his A.B. degree from Kansas in 1901. In his 44 years as registrar Mr. Foster served under five chancellors—Snow, Spangler, Strong, Lindley and the present head of the University, Chancellor Deane W. Malott.
he succeeded Prof. E. F. Engel as registrar and occupied that post until he was made registrar emeritus this spring.
When he first came to the Hill in 1891 there were but three buildings on Mount Oread—Fraser hall, the original Snow hall, which has since been replaced, and the Journalism building which then housed the department of chemistry. Enrollment at the University at that time was but 631, of which 312 were in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. During his regime he saw the University grow to a great institution with more than 30 buildings in Lawrence, one of the outstanding medical centers in the country in Kansas City, and more than 5,000 students in residence annually.
George O. Foster Dies
A year-ago last spring Mr. Foster, in keeping with his undying interest in the welfare of the young people in the University, donated a lot to the institution and specified that it should be made into a tennis court as a symbol of play and freedom for the youth of the country.
From War-Torn Europe--- Dutch Girl Tells Story Of Flight From Nazis
---To College In America
BY ELEANOR FRY
A student from a country where they have no pie, no milkshakes, and only bottled cokes, is Catharina Fruin. Catharina, with her mother, two brothers, and a sister, fled their home in Brussels, Belgium, when the Germans invaded their country early in 1940.
Catharina is of Dutch nationality and considers The Hague, Holland, her home, although*
she was studying physical therapy in Brussels when the war broke out. This student has seen a lot of the ocean in lifetime as she was born in the Dutch East Indies and visited the mother country several times before going to Europe to live. She went to Europe to reside when she was 12 years old, spending two years in boarding school in Switzerland before going to Holland.
The revelation that there is no pie in Holland intrigued me so I asked what they ate for dessert. The answer—cakes with creamy fillings and puddings of all sorts.
Must Pass Finals

Standing isn't determined by credits or hours, but by your ability to pass the final examination at the end of the (continued to page eight)
Need Men For Jobs
An immediate demand for 15 or 20 University men to work for board has arisen at the Men's Employment bureau in the NYA office, Harry O'Kane, secretary of the bureau, has reported. There is also an increasing demand for men to do odd jobs on Saturdays and on surrounding farms. Mr. O' Kane said.
BUY WAR STAMPS . . .
The bureau requests that men now working report to the office where and when they are employed and other necessary details. Those who are still looking for work to fit their particular schedule are reminded to watch the bulletin board outside the NYA office in the basement of Frank Strong hall.
Small Group Reports For Proficiency
One hundred and sixty-four juniors and seniors reported for the proficiency examination in English composition which was given at 8:30 a.m. yesterday. This number is considerably smaller than at the corresponding test last year, according to John B. Virtue, assistant professor of English.
Replogle Shows Slides To Co-operative Club
This examination must be taken by all students in the College sometime after they become juniors and before they graduate. They must complete 24 credit hours after passing the examination in order to be eligible for graduation.
The examination will be given three more times this year, Professor Virtue explained. The next one will be on December 12, and those following will be February 20 and April 24.
Howes Will Discuss Press Censorship
Wayne Replogle, freshman football coach at the University, entertained members of the Co-operative Club and their guests Thursday evening with slides of Yellowstone National park. Replogle spends his summers as a ranger in the park.
The group met at the Colonial Tea Room; and the next meeting of the club will be on Oct. 15, also at the Colonial.
Censorship of President Roosevelt's inspection tour will be discussed by Cecil Howes, Topeka bureau chief of the Kansas City Star, in room 102, Journalism building, at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday. All University students and faculty members are invited to hear Mr. Howes and to join in the discussion.
Mr. Howes' visit is sponsored by the department of journalism in observance of National Newspaper Week. National organizations and civic groups this year are joining the movement to focus the attention of citizens upon the importance of and dangers to their constitutional rights of freedom of expression.
"Our journalism students really enjoyed Mr. Howes' address when he visited us last spring," said Prof. Elmer F. Beth, acting chairman. "He draws upon experiences during years and years of newspaper work in Kansas; he speaks easily and with authority in his field. We hope many other University people will join us at the Journalism Shack, Tuesday."
Christmas vacation is still scheduled in accordance with the dates listed in the K-Book, Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, asserted today. Recess will begin at 5:30 p. m. Wednesday, Dec. 23, and classes will be resumed Monday, January 4. The vacation dates are subject to change at any time, he added.

GEO. O, FOSTER
He is survived by his wife and one son, John Foster, who is in military service in Texas.
Of his death Chancellor Malott said "The death of George O. Foster, who for more than half a century was a vital part in the administration of the University of Kansas, brings to a close a career of loyal service which has brought acquaintance and friendly counsel to thousands upon thousands of University students. We shall miss his kindly presence and his generous devotion to the University."
Will Present Colors To ROTC Tomorrow
Chose Bible College Site
Mr. E. Mark Sullivan, Boston attorney, and Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks, will make formal presentation of a set of regimental colors to the University unit tomorrow afternoon. The colors are a gift of the Lawrence Elks' Club.
Mr. Foster was a member of the Acacia fraternity. He was a 33rd degree Mason and held many offices in the grand lodge of Kansas, particularly that of grand master, in which capacity he served in 1933.
Prominent in the affairs of the Christian church in Kansas, he served as a member of the board of trustees of the Kansas Bible college on the University campus and was one of the three men who chose the site for the institution. His class for young people in the First Christian church Sunday school here was for many years one of the most outstanding in the state.
The presentation ceremony will take place on the ROTC parade grounds on the southwest slope of the campus. Representatives from Governor Ratner's office, from the local Elks' lodge, Chancellor Deane W. Malott, ROTC commanding officers, and a contingent of sailors from the machinists' mates naval training school at the University will participate in the ceremonies.

--struggle taking place on the fringes of the dance floor—actives moving busily through the crowd, exerting their authority to the utmost to force pledges to dance with the house band. Great sociological stuff—conflict of the aesthetic with the fear of temporal power (the actives), resulting in schizophrenia, dementia praecox, and other mental disorders.
Clear Decks For Action; It's Open House Tonight
By now, most of you children have attended at least one of the student mass meetings occasionally referred to as open houses. Some of you more aggressive people may have fought your way to the dance floor, even have danced two or three measures before a bony hand seized your shoulder and muttered in sepulchral tones, "cut, please."
The writer sometimes suspects that Darwin promulgated his theory of survival of the fittest after attending an open house at Eton or Oxford, if those citadels of learning ever had open houses.
But don't anyone draw the conclusion that the writer is opposed to open houses, especially in wartime. Going over the obstacle course or joining a Commando unit is child's play compared to the rough and tumble training one can obtain in trying to finish out a dance with the houses cue.
In fact, reliable authority has it that when the physical examinations are given to newcomers at the University, an A rating signifies that the student is eligible to participate in varsity sports and attend open houses.
Now the sailors may be invited to the open houses. It will be interesting to say the least, to watch the men who have girls in every port to try to navigate to the dance floor. The signal corps men will probably be called in to direct the sailors to the scene of action.
Then there's the grim, hidden

What do you want to know about the war? Except for the all-important question of when will the war be over, almost any other facts can be found in the War Information Library on the second floor of Watson Library.
Do you want to know what the soldiers eat? Would you like to find out how he spends his leisure hours. The answers to these questions are all included in the pamphlets and magazines carefully catalogued there under proper headings. Various Governments Contribute
WAR INFORMATION LIBRARY
Because of the shortage of helpers, the library hours are short. The library is open from 9 to 12 a.m. and from 2 p. m. to 5 p. m. every day except Saturday and Sunday. Hours are from 7 to 9 p. m. every night except Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
No money has been appropriated for the stocking of the War Information library. All books, phamplests and posters are contributed by the Government agencies and other organizations connected with war work. Govrments of other countries such as Great Britian and Australia have also contributed elaborate phamplests and diagrams. The library is run on a small amount of money. Miss Helen Wagstaff of the Extension Division is the organizer and director of the library. Miss Wagstaff provides help for the library during the day, and some NYA help is procured.
The United States office of Civilian Defense put out a camouflage pamphlet with directions and diagrams on how to camouflage airbases, factories, and camps. Another pamphlet, issued by the Department of Commerce, tells small towns and cities how to do their best for the war effort. Many pamphlets on CAA courses and air training are available. Other facts are offered on camp life, sabotage and fifth columnists activities, agriculture and war, civilian war work, financing the war, history of this war, peace plans, religion and war, refugee problems, and post-war prophesies.
The International Relations Club Library, formerly in Dean Werner's office, has been moved into this division of the library. The material contained in both offices coincides. OCD Contributes Pamphlets
Contains Expensive Leaflets
Nearly all the material collected is in pamphlet form, leaflets, or mimeographed papers. Some of the leaflets are elaborate and expensive containing pictures of special interest. The material is arranged on open shelves so a person may look over the material without going through the added trouble of a card catalogue. Posters received from the British and United States government are placed throughout the library. This display has been of considerable interest to students.
An interesting pamphlet was sent by the British Library of Information. This pamphlet contains cross-sections of bombers and other aircraft, as well as identification charts showing every type of airplane used in England.
The library has been popular with the students who browse there in their spare time. The library was used a great deal during the summer and during finals. Townpeople have been invited to use the library whenever they wish.
This well-equipped, up-to-date library is at the disposal of University students. With these interesting facts at hand, it is going to be one of the popular places in the University.
Alumni Entertain Grid Team in Denver
The Jayhawk football squad was entertained by Denver alumni of the University during their stay in the Rocky Mountain capital, it was announced by Fred Ellsworth, Alumni Association secretary.
The squad was met at the Union Pacific station in Denver by a group of alumni headed by Alston McCarty, graduate of the School of Law in 1912. The alumni then acted as guides during a tour through the city and surrounding foothills.
Coach Gwinn Henry spoke briefly at noon Friday before the Gyro Club at a luncheon, while the team rested for the coming game. A large number of Kansas alumni. including a group from the government ski-training camp at Pando, Colo., attended the game Friday night.

Heart Attack Fatal To Harry C. Walton
Harry Clifford Walton, college sophomore from Kansas City, Mo., died early yesterday morning from a heart attack as he was being taken to Watkins Memorial hospital.
The attack occurred as he was walking along Massachusetts street in the 1700 block with fraternity brothers John Short, Bill Mowery, and Metz, Wright, all of Salina. He was carried to the Beta Theta Pi chapter house at 1425 Tennessee, where Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the University health service, was called.
Walton, age 18, is one of two children of Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Walton of Kansas City. He was a member of the student relays committee and the intramural board during his freshman year.

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
The Denver defeat was by far the most damaging to Kansas prestige thus far suffered. The Iowa Cadet debacle was easily explained by the tremendous power of the sailor crew. The sting of the Marquette defeat was eased somewhat by the fine defensive showing made by the Jayhawk line. However, in the Denver game, they faced an outfit rated no better than themselves. The Pioneer contest would have seemed to have been one of four opportunities for Jayhawk victories this fall. Now but three—Kansas State, Iowa State, and Washington remain. It would seem, now, off the comparative scores against Denver, that Iowa State might just as well be erased from that list.
Without a doubt this year's Jayhawk forward wall is an improvement over last year's line as a whole, with most of the men benefitting from last year's experience. However, the backfield has yet to show anything to compare with last fall's foursome of Miller, Evans, Niblo, and Ettinger. Even the pony backs have so far lacked the speed so essential to the operation of both the T-formation and the short punt formation used by the Jayhawks. Both systems rely principally upon a good passer and at least two fast-running scatbeeps. The passing chore is handled capably by Evans. There are no such running backs, however. At least, not until Gene Roberts' bad ankle is healed. Even then, the Kansas City lad would need some assistance with the ball-lugging. Only man in sight who might possibly aid him is Hoyt Baker, who is a better-than-average ball-carrier.
Jayhawk fans are just beginning to realize what a tremendous blow it was to University football hopes when Don Pollom, senior letterman, enlisted in the services this summer. Pollom was just the type of back needed this fall to give the Jayhawk ground attack zip. Along with Gene Roberts, sophomore, he would have given Kansas a duo of fleet halfbacks who could have made the T-formation go places. Now coach Henry has neither Roberts nor Pollom, with Roberts laid up now for several weeks with a bad knee suffered in an early practice session. Said Henry of the Roberts injury: "I scrimmaged my boys less than most coaches in fear of injuries, but you can't get by without some scrimmaging. And when you do, things like this (Roberts' injury), are liable to happen anytime."
"Phog" Allen is more than a little bit enthusiastic about the basketball possibilities of Junius Fenny, sophomore from Lawrence who is at present holding down a position on Gwinn Henry's grid team. "The boy never makes a waste motion, or a wrong move. He just seems to do everything right naturally," marvelled the good doctor. Penny played intramural ball last winter with the Newman I squad, and was an all-intramural selection. He can be expected to see plenty of action on the court with Allen's high-powered Jays this winter.
At random—Jack Marsee, Oklahoma center, has been the standout of the Sooner squad so far this season, with his fine line-backing . . . Emery Nix, T. C. U. passer whom the Jayhawkers will face Saturday, is just about toads as a finger, but can also run with the best of them . . . Touch football is part of Iowa State's conditioning program, with 1,600 men competing . . . Two other basketball boys from whom "Phog" Allen is expecting great things are Paul Turner and Bob Fitzpatrick . . . Denver coach Ellison E. Ketchum was an all-Rocky Mountain football choice for three years as an end while an undergraduate at Denver . . . Art Quinlan, Denver assistant coach, attended Kansas State for one year, and starred there in baseball.
CVC Inducts 300 Women
More than three hundred women were inducted into the Co-ed Volunteer Corps Thursday and Friday in the Little Theater, Fraser Hall by Major Jill Peck, commanding officer, following a two day enlistment in Watson library.
An officer's meeting is called for Monday noon in the Memorial Union cafeteria to appoint squad leaders and squads. Plans will also be completed for several drives to take place soon. Officers elected last spring were: Major Jill Peck, commandant; Adjutant Jean Cody, major's aid; Captain Jane Beal, point system manager; and Captain Jean Bailey, finance officer.
Lieutenants appointed are: Jean
Hoffman, quartermaster; Peggy Davis, defense bonds and stamps; Lila May Reetz, war information bureau; Joy Howland, publicity; Georgia Ferrell, recreation; Lois Blackburn, personnel; Jean Sellers, Red Cross activities; Doris Nieweg, scholarship; Doris Dunkley, health; Jean Boardman; Fat Scherrer; Meda Gae Litton, and Ruth Krehbiel.
Throughout the year the CVC will sponsor the sale of defense bonds, and stamps, conservation drives, health campaigns, Red Cross work, and the scholarship fund.
Enlistees will be assigned duties and will be given credit for doing them. Each deserving member will be honored or promoted in rank according to time and energy put forth in executing orders.
Jayhawks Lose To Denver, 17 To 0
There will be a meeting of all Ku Ku's at 9 o'clock Tuesday evening in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union Building.
Third Game Is Won By Cards 2 To 0
The St. Louis Cardinals, behind brilliant shutout pitching by left-handed Ernie White, yesterday afternoon took a two to one lead in the 1942 World Series, as they downed the New York Yankees in their own park, 2 to 0.
White went all the way, giving up but six hits to the Yankee sluggers. Sharing honors with the young pitcher was a brilliant fielding Cardinal outfield, which time and time again pulled down long drives which seemed destined to be extra base hits.
Spurgeon Chandler, on the mound for the Yankees, also pitched brilliant ball, giving up but three hits in the eight innings he worked. The lone run off him was scored in the third inning without a ball being batted out of the infield. The other Cardinal run came off Marvin Breuer in the ninth inning, with Enos Slaughter's single driving it across.
Max Lanier Today
The two teams will clash again this afternoon at Ruppert stadium, with the game starting at 1 p.m. Max Lanier, another left-hander, is slated to be on the mound for the red-hot Cards, while Atley Donald or Marius Russo will probably get the starting call for the Yanks.
First Inning:
Cardinals — Brown rolled out, pitcher to first to start the game. Moore struck out on three pitched balls. Slaughter also went down swinging. No hits, no runs, no errors.
Yankees—Rizzuto bunted the first pitched ball, and beat it out for an in-field hit. Hasset f'als it out to catcher. Cullenbene was called out on strikes. Rizzuto stole second and then reached third as catcher Walker Cooper threw wild over the second baseman's head. DiMaggio worked the count up to 3 and 2, then went down swinging as White bore down. No runs, one hit, one error.
Cardinals — Hasset, who had received a thumb injury while batting in the first inning left the game. Priddy moved to first, and Frankie Crosetti took over third base. Musial grounded out shortstop to first. Cooper and Hopp also went out shortstop to first. No hits, no runs, no errors.
Second inning:
Yankees—Gordon struck out, Keller grounded out, first baseman unas-

THIRD GAME---over the Yankee pitching chore. Brown singled. Moore was safe, as Breuer threw wild to second in an attempt to force Brown.

Musial received an intentional pass. Cooper flew out to centerfield, Hopp flew to leftfield, and Keller threw Moore out at home as he attempted to score on the fly ball. One run, two hits, one error.

ratie but good game, and Joe Crawford and Junius Penny in the line.
Altman Fumbles
On the fourth play of the game a fumble got the Jayhawks in hot water, as little Harlan Altman, sparkplug quarterback, bobbled a Denver quick-kick on his own 28-yard line with Jim Browning, veteran Denver end, recovering. That threat, however, was halted by a 15-yard Pioneer penalty, and Ellis Ketchum's outfit was forced to punt.
Kansas failed to gain, and Evans punted. Denver immediately worked a tricky lateral play for 22 yards to again threaten the Kansas goal. However, Howie Schechtel, diminutive Denver halfback who played a fine game, fumbled, and Harlan Altman recovered for Kansas on his own 40-yard line. The remainder of the period was spent in exchanging punts.
Hard-running Denver backs early in the third quarter began a drive that threatened to strike pay dirt. However, the Kansas line stiffened on their own 11-yard line, and held for downs. Later in the same period, however, the Pioneers initiated another drive, and this time Clegg McKellar, junior fullback, plunged over from the 3-yard line for the first touchdown of the game. Tom Saracino converted.
Threat Is Halted
Early in the third quarter, the Kansas team made its first serious scoring threat. Walt Sheridan, reserve center, intercepted a Denver pass, and ran 16 yards to the Denver 29-yard line. Three plays failed to gain, and on fourth down Evans was brought down for a loss while attempting to pass.
Denver immediately opened up another drive of its own, reeling off four first downs before the Jayhawk defense stiffened. Evans then got off a beautiful 45-yard punt out of
The Pioneers, sparked by the sensational Girtin, came relentlessly back, however, to drive once again deep into Kansas territory. Evans temporarily slowed down the Denver assault by

Denver then moved to the Kansas 8-yard line before Evans intercepted another Pioneer pass to halt the drive. Evan's kick from the goalline, however, was poor, and the Denver team once again threatened. Bill Halford, substitute fullback, placedkicked a field goal from the Kansas 20-yard line to end the scoring for the game.
Kansas threatened mildly immediately after the kickoff, as Evans returned the kickoff 28 yards, and then passed for a first down into
enemy territory. Denver then held, and Kansas was forced to punt.
The Jayhawkers recovered the ball almost immediately, however, as Paul Turner intercepted a wild Denver lateral pass on the Pioneers' 19-yard line. Sherwood and Linquist drove to the Denver 7-yard line, and a first down. The next four Kansas plays, however, gained but 4 yards, and the Pioneers took over the ball on their 3-yard line, as the last Jayhawk opportunity to break the scoring ice faded away. No Gear Attack

WHY CONVOCATION?
Convocations are an accepted part of University life, yet all too often students choose to ignore their opportunities; convocation means an hour of rest to break the schedule of the morning classes.
Convocations are designed for enjoyment, and they constitute an interesting and entertaining addition to the formal classroom type of education. Speakers are carefully selected leaders in their fields, yet many students forego the opportunity to hear talks which would command large admission prices anywhere else.
In a recent editorial, the Indiana Daily Student bemoans the fact that so many students fail to realize the intellectual potentialities of a program designed to teach while entertaining.
Here on our own campus we have been faced with the problem of indifferent students who prefer to spend their convocation hour in some coke joint.
Perhaps it is the urge to assert their independent spirit that causes students to stay away from a free program. Or perhaps these convocation dodgers have never been able to raise their level of entertainment above coking, smoking, and juke boxes. —G. S.
Answering charges that American fighter planes were of an inferior type, a House military subcommittee has announced, after investigation, that statistics indicate the performance of our planes has left little to be desired.
OUR FIGHTER PLANES
This announcement is undoubtedly intended to end an embarrassing discussion about the merits of United States planes. That it will close the agreement is highly questionable.
The first indication of criticism came late last spring when Maj. Alexander P. de Seversky pointed to "inferior military characteristics" of our fighter planes in his book, "Victory Through Air Power."
The principal objections were that the planes were ineffective in action above 16,000 feet where, in this war, all important fighting takes place, and that their armor was inadequate.
During the summer, British military men began complaining about American ships sent to England, claiming that they had many faults of which we were unaware. Actually, our Air Force leaders have known from the beginning all details—inadequacies included—of the performances of our fighting planes.
The touch-off came in August when British officials took pilots of the famous American Eagle Squadron from American-made Bell Airacobras and put them in Britian's superb Spitfires for operations over the continent.
At almost precisely the same time, American pilots in Egypt blandly admitted publicly that they preferred the Spitfire over any American fighter plane.
Such developments threw a cannonade at our airplane industry, but luckily it had discovered its own faults and was already doing something about them. Existing models found to be deficient had been redesigned, and production of vastly improved planes was started.
Work on planes with inherent, unremedial
Screeched one newspaper headline: Marines In Solomons Outnumbered 10 to 1. Which should make it a fairly even fight.

weaknesses was suspended, and production mounted for such new types as the Republic P-47, the Thunderbolt, which is supposedly equal to anything that flies, in speed, maneuverability, ceiling, and armament.
The planes to come promise big things for America's air battles. If this nation can reach the point where it masters the skyways of the world, the weakness in her early planes will be easily forgotten. B.C.
Editor's Note: National Newspaper Week is being celebrated throughout the nation this week, October 1-8. In these words, Edwin F. Abels, editor and publisher of the Outlook, and president of the National Editorial Association, sets forth its purpose: "Newspaper Week should be a time of reaffirmation of the ethics of the profession. Information that inspires leadership must be grounded in truth, simply told, fearlessly presented. No greater service is possible on any battlefront."

The Teke pledges took their walk-out Thursday evening. In addition to playing the customary pranks (firing cooks, turning off the utilities, hiding the bedding, etc.) they tackled the actives, threw them into their beds and tied them down (ye gods, no respect). The pledges finished tearing up the house and then left town for a party.
The (undoubtedly toughest on the Hill) pledge class came back to the house in time for class Friday morning.
Never before have I ever heard of the pledges being so mean to the actives. Maybe a new regime is coming in.

A mathematics professor walked into class last week, mounted his podium in front of the room and surveyed his class. A sea of freshman caps met his eye.
He cleared his throat. "I'm certainly glad to see all you young men have bought your freshman caps," he commented and smiled.
"But I wish you'd take them off in class." he said without the smile.

The Templin hall upperclassmen have a tradition whereby the freshman members are initiated into the house. The initiation usually consists of the upperclassmen arousing the frosh at a wee hour in the morning and sending them on a scavenger hunt.
Two upperclassmen Friday night felt that three of this year's freshman class needed two initiation instead of the traditional one.
So at 3:00 a.m. Saturday morning the three "different" freshmen, Jack Tio, Ralph Norquest, and Charles Burns, were awakened and advised to dress and go downstairs to begin the big initiation.
Told that the other frosh were already on the scavenger hunt, the three were sent out.
Naturally, it was only a matter of seconds until they found out that they had just gone through a preliminary initiation.
And returned at 7 a.m.
The three grinned sickly and returned to bed.
Just in case anyone sees some pieces of Templin hall flying through the air, it won't take much guessing as to who put the dynamite under it.

University Plays Host To Peruvian Student
The University plays host this year to Senor Antonio Fernando Lulli, Peruvian exchange student.Senor Lulli is classified as a senior in the college, with his major in political science. He is training for diplomatic work.
The son of a wealthy importer and exporter in Lima, Senator Luli is a direct descendant of $\textcircled{4}$.
Jean Baptiste Lulli, famour Florentine musician who created the Opera of Paris. He is also the grandson of the man who is recognized in France as having invented the oxidic flame. He is a relative of General Ernesto Montagne, former vice-president of Peru.
He received his grammar school education in the Villa Marie Academy, a prominent North American institution at Lima. He then entered the "British School" at Lima where he received his junior Oxford diploma after a period of two years, this making him one of the few Peruvians to hold such a degree.
Lulli comes to K. U. as an exchange student under the auspices of the Institute of International Education of New York.
Senor Lulli then entered the Collegio de los SS.CR Recoleta, an institution managed by the French Catholic order. Later he enrolled in the Catholic University of Peru at Lima, where he planned to study seven years to obtain his law degree. After one year at this study, he decided to work toward entering the diplomatic service so came to this country.
In the Colegio de los SS.CC Recoleta, Lulli was a member of the school magazine staff and of the shooting team. For two years in succession he was inter-collegiate tennis champion. While attending the Catholic University, he was a member of the tennis team competing in the Olympic games among the various schools of Peru.
While in attendance at KU Senor Lulli plans to organize a local league of the National Pan American Student League. He intends to bring about, through various exhibits, informal talks, and local radio programs, a closer relationship between this school and Latin America.

Aunt Esther was all wrong when she said college would be disillusioning. I have been disillusioned on only one point since I arrived. That was about class cuts. Dean Lawson has informed me and other freshmen that there is no such thing as a cut. I could have sworn otherwise, but then maybe he's right.

Twelve others have been asked to return at 8:15 Wednesday evening for second tryouts. From these 12 and any other University women who did not apply for membership yesterday but are interested in the organization, seven other swimmers will be selected to fill the Quack Club's pledge quota of 15.

Women who demonstrated the side stroke, crawl, back stroke, racing dive, plain dive, and surface dive to the complete satisfaction of senior Quack Club members are Jean Porter, Lurabelle Moore, Sue Elliott, Irma Lee Hastic, Sue Schwartz, Sara Jane Meyers, Katy Foster, and Joan Burch.
Conducted by Nada Clifton, president, tryouts opened at 10 a.m. and continued for approximately an hour and a half. Judging for eligibility was done entirely by Quack Club members, assisted by Miss Ruth Hoover, assistant professor of physical education and sponsor of the organization.
Some Return for Tryouts
Tuesday afternoon from 3:30 until 5:30. Miss Hoover announced, those women who have been asked to return for tryouts Wednesday evening may swim in the gymnasium pool and receive instruction on strokes in which they are weak.

To Celebrate on Oct. 24
Homecoming will be celebrated at Kansas State Teachers' College, Fort Hays, on October 24. The football team will play Emporia State in the afternoon.
Football games at Hays are played in the evening. The queen will be crowned between halves, and the game will be followed by the varsity dance. Student organizations will compete in house decorations and competitive stunts.
Cornhuskers Collect Scrap
Something new and different in the way of homecoming decorations will appear at the University of Nebraska next Saturday. Scrap rubber and metal will be collected by the competing houses and will be piled in front of the houses to be judged according to quantity.
Each house will be allowed to spend five dollars for a homecoming banner which may have either the war effort or the football game as its theme. Houses will be judged on both the amount of scrap and the originality of the banner.
Two Bands For Ball
Two bands have been booked for the Harvest Ball, first major dance of the social season at Iowa State College. The bands of Bob Allen and Ray Gray will play alternate numbers at the dance.
Crowning of the Harvest Ball Queen will highlight the informal dance. The queen is chosen by the students of the Agricultural division

Start Campaign For Scrap Metal On Campus Today
Fifty men of the buildings and grounds department responded to a call by C. G. Bayles, superintendent, for volunteers to aid in picking up scrap iron on Mt. Oread today. The call for volunteers followed the result of a survey taken this week by Chancellor Deane W. Malott, J. J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering, and Mr. Bayles, who found scrap iron amounting to about 10 tons.
Begin Drive in January
The University first began the drive in January when metal was cleaned out of different laboratories. Another drive on July 30 gathered metal from the Hill. Today's drive in cooperation with the statewide drive directed by Dolph Simons, business manager of the Lawrence Journal-World, will be the third such drive.
All kinds of scrap may be found in science laboratories, gymnasiums, kitchens, storerooms, boiler rooms, clubs, fraternities, and other buildings. There is a wealth of material available, from old Bunsen burners to discarded iron beds; from rubber mats to steam pipes; from old fences and railings to broken-down pianos; from torn shower curtains to old rags; from hemp rope to replaced boilers. Any student who has a jalopy which has outlived its usefulness may do his country a service by taking it to an automobile graveyard. Articles such as keys, badges, and miscellaneous items are good scrap and can be found in the very rooms in which students live.
Yield Taken To Foundry
Fifty pounds of scrap have been collected from the old Snow Hall by the buildings and grounds committee. The Physics department turned in approximately one ton, bacteriology department 860 pounds, botany, University Press, Civil Engineering and psychology each 500 pounds, and small amounts were received from the political science department and the extension division.
Several tons were taken to the foundry to be used in making tools for the U. S. Naval training school. Anyone wishing to turn in scrap metal should take it to the building and grounds department or if unable to transport it, notify Thos. C. Ryther, defense co-ordinator for the University, or C. G. Bayles, superintendent of building and grounds.

Besides learning their own language, Dutch students must learn to speak French, English, and German. Catharina speaks excellent English.
Catharina is a reporter's dream as she talks freely of her home country and her experiences. She remarked that Dutch people are very natural. The girls usually wear no make-up and rarely smoke. The Dutch enjoy walking, bicycling, swimming, and skating. Marriage rings are worn on the right hand, and watches are worn on the right wrist. The steering wheel is on the right side of the car. The people are very democratic and before the war were all in about the same financial class.
The story of the journey of the Fruin family from Brussels to New York is a thrill-packed adventure. At 5 o'clock in the morning on May 10, 1940, they heard bombs drop in Brussels. They had their own car, and with what money they had in the house left the day the Germans were expected to arrive.
The Fruin's saw parachute troops descend from the skies. They waited in line for three hours to get bread to eat and slept in dance halls with men, women, children, dogs and cats.
The Germans weren't particular as to whom they bombed, and attacked refugees as well as soldiers. The Fruin family attempted to cross the Channel at Bretagne but found that there were no more boats. They were in Versailles when Paris surrendered. There was the usual delay in receiving papers for admittance into Spain but they were fortunate enough to get them. They sold their car in Portugal and spent a month there before boarding a Greek boat for New York. They arrived in New York Oct. 12, 1940. They were in southern France when the country surrendered. Catharina states that the French people were very much against the surrender and preferred to continue the fight against the invaders.

Jan Savitt Will Play For Frolic
Kitchen Help May Join AFL; Greeks Prepare
The question of University kitchen help joining the American Federation of Labor, asking for an increase in pay and shorter hours, and staging a walkout if terms are not granted, is nearing a head today.
Although Greek house leaders are of the opinion that their kitchen help is satisfied with present working conditions, emergency precautions are being taken in event the walkout is carried through. Plans call for students living in the organized houses to arrange for meals on a co-operative basis.
Weekend meetings of the Pan-Hellenic organizations resulted in the formation of a committee which would act first as a group to meet with and persuade kitchen help to remain outside the union, and if the unionization is successful, to act as a bargaining agency.
Members of the Greek bargaining committee are Marvin Sollenberger, Vernon Foster, Jim Gillie, Lois Wilcutts, and Joanne Fronkier.
Information on a purely speculative basis is that kitchen help will walkout tomorrow, probably at noon, but there is little to back this rumor. A meeting of kitchen help and union organizers was planned for last night at an undisclosed place, but information on this meeting, if held, is also lacking.

Navy Day
Tickets Are
Contest Prize
Calling all students! Calling all students! Are there any wise and witty students who would like to win two guest tickets for the navy officers' dinner? Here is what they have to do:
Become acquainted with the war facts! That's all there is to it. Two broadcasts in which students will be the participants, will be made from KFKU preceding Navy Day, Oct. 27. These programs will be in the form of shot-gun quizzes on war facts. Five students will be selected to answer these questions, and if any person can submit questions which will stump the "brain busters," that person will receive two tickets to the navy officers' dinner.
Any person may submit as many questions as he desires. The only requirement is that the questions are interesting, clear, and bear direct relation to the subject. Answers must accompany all questions. The winning questions will be selected by a faculty board, and the names of the winners will be announced during the program.
Robert Calderwood, professor of speech, will act as maestro for the first program, with Dr. John Ise, professor of economics, moderating the Oct. 15 affair. Five students selected from different University departments, will compose the first quiz board, while the Oct. 15 group will consist of three members each from the machinists' mates naval school, and from the UNISTROC unit.
The brain busters will be on the air from 9:30 to 10 p. m. Oct. 8 and 15. They will be sponsored by the department of speech and dramatic arts as stimulation and guidance toward matters of war interest and importance.
Questions for these programs should be addressed to KFKU, 111 Fraser hall. University of Kansas, and must be in before Oct.8.

The Student State-wide Activities Commission will soon begin activities headed by Bill Porter, chairman of the commission, and John Kreamer, chairman of the Correspondent's Bureau. Both are college juniors.

CVC Leads Students In Scrap Drive
A call for student participation in the scrap metal contest sponsored by the Co-ed Volunteer Corps, will begin Friday in an intensive student campaign, Doiph Simons, State chairman of the drive said today. The drive to last a week, is a part of the three-weeks Douglas county, Kansas versus Douglas county. Neb contest begun last week.
Major Jill Peck, commanding officer of CVC announced today that a scrap pile will be started on the campus where students may pile all scrap metal available. Loads that cannot be transported to the pile will be picked up by trucks.
Fifty volunteer workers from the building and grounds collected the 45,755 pounds of scrap metal from the University buildings Saturday and Sunday but a great amount of scrap still remains in organized houses.
The Kansas quota for scrap metal is 200,000 tons by Jan.1 and most of that must be turned in before snow begins to fly, because of transportation difficulties, Mr. Simons said. Douglas county contributed 240,273 pounds Saturday and Sunday including the University's 45, 755 pounds.
Scrap metal has become a vital necessity in the war production program to keep the national foundries operating. Many are shut down now because they do not have an adequate supply of metal. Donald Nelson, chairman of the national war production program said scarcity of scrap metal is the most critical situation in the war production program.

Whether iron shrinks or whether some prankster was demonstrating how the University conditioning course would 'build down' men so they would not need so much iron to fit them out in a suit of armor, Dr. F.

Dr. Allen recently took to the junkyard about 20 old Prussian sabers and swords which he had purchased 30 years ago at an army sale in Warrensburg, Pa. He remarked about the old coat of armor he had purchased with the sabers and swords. It was normal size, about

House presidents were asked to cut down on the number and expense of formal parties by Miss Elizabeth Meguiru, adviser to women, at the house presidents council meeting yesterday afternoon in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building.
Because of the stress on war work this year, all houses will be limited to two large parties, Miss Meguiar said. This includes open houses. She suggested that more informal parties be given, and that decorations be dispensed with and refreshments be held to a minimum.
Reola Durand, president of the council, presided at the election of Virginia Hoover as vice-president, and Persis Snook, secretary.
No Parties Downtown
There are to be no parties downtown because of gas, oil, and tire shortages, Miss Meguiar said. The various houses may arrange to have Saturday afternoon dances in their own living rooms. The time would be limited to one hour and a half. They must be informal get-to-gethers, not tea dances.
Miss Meguiar suggested afternoon meetings for women to do Red Cross (continued to page eight)
broadcasting over major networks, and by recordings.
Savitt is noted for his famous "shuffle rhythm" and for his ability to instill new life into the tunes of yesterday. The Top Hatters "sweet swing" pleases both hep-cats and waltzers.
Mr. Savitt's training in classical music has brought about the quality of sweetness into the rhythm orchestra. The orchestra is about five years old, and has been noted for its shuffle rhythms since it was organized. This will not be Savitt's first appearance at the University since he played for the Sophomore Hop in 1940.
The date of the Frolic was changed to suit the convenience of Mr. Savitt, who was unable to come at another date. Mr. Savitt has just completed a tour which took him to Fort Leonard Wood, Mo., and the Great Lakes Training School.
ISA Opens Doors To New Members
From Thursday until Oct. 16, the ISA office in the sub-basement of the Union building will be open from 3:30 p.m. until 5:30 p.m. for the purpose of selling membership cards and giving information concerning the organization.
The tickets will be on sale some time next week, McSpadden announced. A limited number will be issued and the price will be $2 a couple.
This period of regular office hours has been arranged to take the place of an extensive campaign for new ISA members. The membership tickets, which include both fall and spring semesters, are sold for $1.75 and will include a variety of social events. A list of events which have been planned for this year includes the dance that will be held Oct. 17 in the Union ballroom, numerous hour dances, skating parties, the spring formal and the spring style show. There will be no Jay Talk published this year; however, new and different social activities will be arranged to take its place.
KuKu's, men's pep organization, will meet tonight at 9 o'clock in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building.

Helen Ruth Macey --red coats, and following in horseback a pack of hounds. Prior to the war, pianists visited the Thames river regularly to watch the swans maneuver, but service men now row where the swan's once swam. Both Helen Ruth's uncles are now seeing service with the RAF.

Merrie England Ain't What She Used To Be
Shooting at Jerries and ferrying bombers is not what Helen Ruth Macey and Phil Dynan, ferry command bomber attending school here, have in common. Instead they both have been on the British Isles, Helen Ruth making it her home for six years when her father took his family back to ancestral estates
Helen Ruth, college freshman, made one quiet request:
"Please refrain from asking me about the war. I would like to picture England to the students*
"Please refrain from asking me picture England to the students' as the peaceful place it really is." Thus she launched her description of England in a smooth English manner.
If you can recall your history, try to picture an English manor house with its many rooms, located in a peaceful countryside away from the noises of the city. That is how and where Helen Ruth lived, 39 miles north of Coventry. She can't remember once when her family played host to fewer than 25 people at the dining table. Cousins, uncles, grandpappas, and grandmamas usually composed the guest list.
Ten Replacees Water
Tea is the customary English drink, like water is in our country. The water in England must be boiled before drinking, and the English use tea to flavor the flat taste of water. Six months ago, Helen ordered crumpets to eat with her tea. Four weeks ago they arrived.
Helen Ruth's heart is still with England, for if the war hadn't intervened, she would now be enrolled in an English girl's school. Helen Ruth thinks this war will 'shake the moss off many a cherished curriculum in England," but contends that the English are made of the right stuff.
Her voice still remains a smooth English accent which conflicts with her work at the Union, Helen Ruth says. "Fountain lingo is baffling. When I say "burn one" the boy behind the fountain interprets it to mean one bun. I blame it on my accent, but it's all in my day's work."
Instead of speaking of chemists when meaning a drugstore or of a multiple shop when referring to a dimestore. Helen Ruth has had to use all her ability for adapting herself to the customary American terms.
Cricket On Sunday
On Sundays, most shops and restaurants close, as many people spend the day in the country. Those remaining at home on Sunday take deep satisfaction in watching "village cricket," a game closely resembling sandlot baseball. The so-called gentlemen of leisure indulge in fox hunts, wearing stovepipe hats and
Several of her summers were spent touring Europe and a small cart of Asia, Helen Ruth said.
Bicycles are the chief mode of transportation in England with buses playing the large transportation role. The school system differs from ours in that public schools are called "board" schools and students must pay to attend. No competition until 18.
America answered a long-sought-for prayer of Helen Ruth's that she be allowed to weak dark red nail polish. She had seen American actresses wear it on the screen, but only the light shades were accepted in English society. British girls are not allowed, by tradition, to use cosmetics until they reach the age of 18. Wearing lisle hose has eliminated any worry about silk stockings for the English girls, Helen Ruth said.
No Cosmetics Until 18
Movies are the chief entertainment in the lives of many English people, but concerts still remain a great attraction. "Sleepy Lagoon" recent popular song, was played as a favorite waltz in 1934.
Yule logs in England at Christmas are as traditional as hamburgers to the American dinner table. The holiday was celebrated on Christmas Eve in the manor house with an exchange of gifts. Guests gathered formally at a large table in the dining room of the manor house to enjoy a real Christmas dinner. Helen said. All England celebrates holidays in a royal manner, she insisted proudly.
Helen Ruth made a special effort to say "America is a wonderful place to live," but she went on to say, "Following the war I want to return to England, for there is no place like home."

Worst Yet, Says Coach Gwinn Henry
Football material is at its lowest ebb this fall since the beginning of his regime at this University, Gwinn Henry, football coach, said today.
"In all my 31 years of coaching, I've never seen anything like it," moaned the veteran mentor, referring to the undermanned Jayhawk football team which Friday night received a terrific mauling from a rather lightly-regarded Denver University squad.
"Never before in my coaching experience have I been so low on reserves," added Henry. "I've got nine or ten first-rate men that stack up with the best in the country, if I could only give them a few minutes past during the game. However, that is impossible with the squad I have on board."
"If only we could use that top-notch freshman squad of ours as Denver did," declared Henry. "Then we might have a different story too."
Henry has been forced throughout the year to use his starting eleven throughout most of the games. As a result, the opposition has repeatedly run over tired Jayhawk players in the final periods.
Penney Is Troubled
The rarified air of the Rocky Mountains visibly affected the Kansas squad at Denver. Junius Penney, ace sophomore center, was particularly a victim of the elements. After the game, he declared: "The ball seemed to be doing gyrations, and I couldn't tell whether it was coming towards me or going away."
Neither Gene Roberts or Joe Roberts saw action in the Denver game. It is extremely doubtful if Gene Roberts will be back in action this week, but Joe Roberts will probably be back at his starting halfback position.
The Jayhawks are again faced this week with a long road trip, as they take on the Texas Christian Horned Frogs at Ft. Worth Saturday afternoon. Coach Henry fears that the hot Texas climate will take its toll of the Kansas players who have in the past been required to do 60-minute duty.
TCU rates as one of the top squads in the Southwest this fall, and already have scored victories over UCLA and Arkansas. However, coach Dutch Meyer was none too satisfied with his charges showing Saturday as they had to go all-out to down the supposedly weak Arkansas Razorbacks, 13 to 6.

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
"What's wrong with the Kansas football team?" That's the question everybody is asking, and everybody is answering—but differently. Some say its the lack of backfield material, and they are at least partially correct, for there are no more than three or four backs on the squad who can carry the mail in true Big Six fashion. Other observers place the blame upon the lack of reserve power, with graduation and the services having taken a heavy toll of men counted upon heavily for substitute duty. A third group declare that the punt formation from which the Jayhawks have been running the majority of their plays is entirely unsuited to the Kansas material. And so on and on come the explanations.
Without a doubt, it would seem that pre-season predictions for the Kansas football season were entirely too optimistic. For instance, says the Illustrated Football Annual: "After years of forced peopling of the guard and tackle posts with men of scatback specifications, Gwinn Henry looks with satisfaction on a squadron of jut-jawed pachyderms. The overall prospect may be too tinged with green for cestatics but nevertheless its pleasantly encouraging." Overlooked by the writer were the service losses which had reduced the "Pachyderms" at each line post to one or two deep. Disregarded was the fact that the backfield material was probably the poorest in recent years, with entirely too heavy a load falling on the shoulders of inexperienced sophomores. And then on top of all that comes the injury to Gene Roberts, perhaps the hardest blow of all.

Yesterday was a great day for Cardinal rooters, as their favorites came through in a big way. The fine showing of the Redbirds was much less of a surprise here in the Midwest than it was in the East. There, judging from the early betting odds, the myth of Yankee invincibility held a fast hold on the populace. Fans forgot that the Cards had won even more games than the Yankees in winning their pennant from tougher opposition, and that the St. Louis outfit was probably the greatest National League team since another Cardinal outfit of nearly a decade ago, sparked by the unstoppable Dean brothers and Ducky Medwick. There are many now who rate the present Cardinal aggregation far ahead of even that great team. Service losses will tear huge holes in the Redbird roster for next year, however.
\* \* \* \*
The Cardinal victory was not the biggest surprise to this corner. In fact, it was entirely expected. Amazing, however, was the fact that it was the hurling arm of John Beazley, not Mort Cooper, which carried the St. Louis team to their triumph. Cooper was the man feared by most of the Yankees, but when he appeared on the pitching mound, they treated him most roughly. Already alibis are flying around from Yankee followers, and at least a few of them have some truth. However, claims that the present Yankee team does not rate with past Yankee teams would seem almost ridiculous. After all, it was not the older men who should be slowing down that failed to come through. It was the younger stars like Gordan and Bonham who weakened at the critical moments. Surely they are not on the downgrade, but are at their prime. It was just a case of the better ball club putting on too much pressure for another great outfit.

Offer Four-Year Course In Occupational Therapy
For the first time, the University is offering a four-year course in occupational therapy under the joint direction of the School of Fine Arts and the University hospital.
Miss Marjorie Whitney, chairman of the department of design and director of the course, and Mrs. Nina Crawford, assistant director, will instruct $ ^{\textcircled{1}} $
After World War I, it was found that occupational therapy was an aid in helping wounded and disabled service men to recovery and vocational rehabilitation. Believing that such work will be needed in the near fu-
ure, the University has organized such a course.
Occupational therapy is a profession closely allied with nursing, medicine, social service, and physical therapy. To give proper training for the complex profession, the course has been arranged to include training in psychology, physiology, chemistry, zoology, anatomy, and bacteriology, combined with courses in design, bookbinding, metal and leather work, making of jewelry, and weaving.

Court Game Same Principles Like War Are Used, Says Dr. F. C. Allen
If a man is a good basketball player, he'll make a good soldier. Authority for this statement is Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, University basketball coach and nationally known sports authority.
"I use practically the same tactics in drilling my basketball squad that army officers use in drilling their men," Dr. Allen explained.
"There are, according to army officers with whom I have conversed, nine principles of warfare," continued Coach Allen. "On checking up, I found that I utilized these same principles in my court instruction, and since then I have patterned my entire coaching system after those principles, in the belief that many men will benefit from them in preparation for the task ahead of them.
The nine principles of warfare are, according to Dr. Allen, the principles of surprise, simplicity of movement, offensive, objective, mass, economy of force, movement, security, and cooperation.
"Now take this principle of cooperation," said Dr. Allen "In warfare it applies to cooperation between artillery and infantry, the ground forces and the air forces, the officers and the men, the navy and the army, between one nation and its allies, and between the men on the front and the people back home."
Cooperation Essential "It is just as essential on the basketball court for victory, as it is on the battlefront," Dr. Allen asserted. "Cooperation has always been the keynote of Kansas basketball squads. Each man is but part of a machine, and no one part is as important as the machine working as a unit. The scorer cooperates with the feeder, and vice-versa. I cooperate with the team members, and they co-operate with me."
Dr. Allen then continued to give examples of each of the other principles of warfare as utilized on the basketball court.
The principle of surprise, or the blitzkrieg, said the basketball coach, is comparable to the fast break on the basketball court, with the fordescending suddenly upon the unsuspecting and unprepared guards. However, the principle of surprise should not be used, Dr. Allen pointed out, unless the principles of mass can also be employed to advantage.
"In other words," said Dr. Allen, "if you employ the fast break, be certain that you not only get there 'fustest,' but also with the 'mostest.' Only when you can catch one guard with two forwards, or two guards with three forwards is the fast break profitable."

Letter to the Editor
Editor, University Daily Kansan
University of Kansas
Lawrence, Kansas
Dear Sir,
I want to offer a correction of facts in the story in the Kansan October 4 relative to the death of Harry Walton.
This boy did not die on the way to the hospital. He died of a heart attack one-half hour before I was called to see him. He had been brought by his friends from the place where he collapsed to a rooming house and artificial respiration was started. In this particular instance moving the patient made no change in his course because the attack was immediately fatal.
In general, and this is a point to impress upon the public particularly at this time when so much emphasis is placed on first aid, persons who collapse should not be moved, and the first thing to do is to call a physician. While awaiting the arrival of a physician it is correct procedure to start artificial respiration when breathing has ceased.
Sincerely,
Ralph I. Canuteson, M.D.

Marine Prefers America To South Sea Islands
Life in the tropics "just ain't got it." Marine Capt. Earle K. Radford, Jr., who was graduated from the School of Business in 1940 and who returned recently to his home in Kansas City, Mo., for a 10-day leave, prefers lettuce, milk, apples, and sleep to life on a Pacific island.
Captain Radford was "pretty had lost two football games. He for renewing old acquaintances, ternity brothers in San Diego than he "ever could find in any one other spot."
Captain Radford was "pretty mad" on hearing that K.U. had lost two football games. He recalled campus days, but as for renewing old acquaintances, he has seen more of his fraternity brothers in San Diego.
Not hearing a bugle call and not wearing a pistol constantly were the best parts of being home again, Captain Radford claimed.
The few movies he saw in the Pacific area were invariably pre-1930, with Lon Chaney as the main star. Radford is looking forward to seeing movies produced in the last two years, he said.
The only popular tune he recognized was "Deep in the Heart of Texas." The Marine Corps Hymn, and sometimes patriotic music was their entire musical diet.
Pan-Hellenic Council
The annual Men's Pan-Hellenic smoker for fraternity pledges will be held Wednesday, Oct. 14, in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building, Harold McSpadden, chairman of the Pan-Hellenic social committee, announced today.
All fraternity pledges are invited to attend the smoker which affords
an opportunity for Hill freshmen to get acquainted with one another. Refreshments will be served and a short entertainment program is being prepared. McSpadden said. No upperclassmen, except members of the Pan-Hellenic council will attend.
The time for the smoker is tentatively set from 7:30 to 8:30. Other members of the committee in charge are Hub Ulrich and Don King.
Because of difficulties in finding a place in which to have the "Gingham Frolic," the party will be postponed indefinitely, Marge Rader, WSGA president announced today. The Frolic was scheduled originally for tomorrow night but because no arrangements could be made to use either the Memorial Union building or Robinson gymnasium a definite date could not be set.

Wilkins' Present Recital In Hoch
The Wilkins' Recital in Hoch auditorium drew a crowd of more than five hundred persons last night. The program was sponsored by the School of Fine Arts, Dean D. M. Swarthout, for the first time in several months, assisted the performers as accompanist.
The story at it appeared in the Sunday Kansan—
Harry Clifford Walton, college sophomore from Kansas City, Mo., died early Saturday morning from a heart attack as he was being taken to Watkins Memorial hospital.
The attack occurred as he was walking along Massachusetts street in the 1700 block with fraternity brothers Short, Bill Mowery, and Metz Wright, all of Salina. He was carried to the Beta Theta FI chapter house at 1425 Tennessee, where Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the University health service, was called.

Joseph Wilkins included two tenor arias among his group of selections.

The revue has been written in the form of a tryout, and will be called, "Meet the Talent." Last week two boys from Panama appeared. These boys could do card tricks, a disappearing act and Spanish dances. The difficulty involved in presenting the card trick and disappearing act ruled these out, but the Spanish dances were a possibility. The drawback was, however, that a girl partner was needed.

On Thursday a girl appeared who could sing Spanish songs. On Friday another girl appeared who tried out with a tap dance. It was learned that this girl had studied Spanish dances. With this material a gay, colorful Mexican street scene is being built, tentatively entitled, "South of the Border."
The greatest difficulty, Crafton reported, was finding singers with ability to act. Many of the singers are fine concert singers, but for a revue of this kind, action and movement is needed.
The tryouts last week were generally satisfactory, Crafton concluded. As was expected, there was a shortage of male actors, but the show is expected to be completed and ready for the opening night, Oct. 26.
WSGA Changes Plans For Regular Teas

Pep Up and Step Up
Vacations at the University this year have been shortened almost to the point of obviation—an exigency perpetrated upon American colleges by war. Such a plan is not without its shortcomings.
It is true that reducing Thanksgiving to one day of vacation and Easter to perhaps none at all, one week of valuable class time has been saved. By clipping a week from the usual two at Christmas, it is possible to move graduation eight days nearer.
These reductions and eliminations of vacation periods will save more than two weeks, an appreciable amount of time. Notwithstanding these reductions, students working and studying at a consistently intense pace for months on end need more than the rest and off-the-c Campus relaxation accorded them by this year's vacation schedule.
The "loss of efficiency" created by long vacations is probably more than compensated for by the renewed vigor, ambition, and general well-being of the returning students.
College students aren't so old that they experience severance of home ties without some remorse. Dorm life may be wonderful, but it's still a pleasant sensation to walk into one's own room at home and glut on Mom's cooking.
If student morale and topnotch efficiency mean anything—and we are sure they do—in the accelerated war-time University program, some compromise should be worked out. Shortcuts could be made in other ways in order to allow students at least three brief vacations at home during the year.
Class assignments could be increased slightly day by day, so ultimately the same amount of ground would be covered in a shorter time. Sandwich the time saved into the three traditional vacations—Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter.
Naturally this would take careful planning on the part of University officials and instructorsbut after all, don't they like vacations, too?-J.M.

Sigma Nu pledges Rod Bradley and Glenn St. Aubyn walked out with the rest of their pledge brothers last Monday night.
Now most fraternity pledge walk outs are celebrated by a certain amount of partying—the Sigma Nu pledge class was no exception.
Fledgles Bradley and St. Aubyn made great preparation for their share of the partying and purchased their "refreshments" beforehand.
Tuesday morning the two "wild" men reported that they had never spent a faster time, and boy, were those refreshments hot—two quarts of orange juice and one whole quart of grape juice.
Senior Antonio Fernando Luli, Peruvian exchangre student staying at the Phi Pi Pel house, called "la hormona securita" Peggy Schroeder last Sunday and made a date for Wednesday night at 8:30.
Peggy somehow thought "To/To" made the date for 7:30 p.m.
Peggy somehow thought 10.16 made the date for 1:00 p.m.
So Sunday at 7:30 pm she was ready. But To To didn't arrive
8:15 Phi Pai Paul Carpenter called and wanted to go out for a coke.
Penny reasoned that Senior To To had just forgotten the engagement so she told Paid "nak."
A1 8:35 Senor Antonio called at the Pi Phi house for his date.
Peggy bounced lightly down the stairs, thinking that date Carpenter was arriving early.
Five steps from the bottom of the stairs she saw date No. 1, Senor Antonio Fernando Lulli, waiting.
It took until 8:50 for the thoroughly embarrassed Peggy to explain the baffling situation to the ultra-baffled To To.
At 9, date No. 2, Carpenter, arrived at the Pi Phi house. Peggy and To To were in the swing, still discussing the situation.
Again Peggy became embarrassed and again she explained the circumstances.
Then arose the question of just WHO she did have a date with.
Then arose the question of just WICI she did not have a date with. Date Lulli and Date Carpenter each argued why they thought they should be allowed the evening with Peggy.
Probably because of being able to speak Peruvian better than English, To Tost the argument and had to go home.
***
Jim Copening, Sig Ep active, felt a determination a couple of days ago to, for once in his life, really drink all the coke he wanted and to have a gorgeous satisfaction.
So he drank three bottles of it in 29 seconds.
Another Sig Ep (name censored because of the libel menace to the Kansan), not to be outdone, also sought satisfaction from drink. Only this pledge loved to partake of the fruit of the brewer's art.
So this fellow drank two quarts of brew (suds) in 14 minutes.
The Sig Ep's almost had to pledge some more football players to get the latter "satisfied" pledge to bed.
Blackface Joads Star In "River Bottom Boy"
If you can imagine the Dead End Kids playing a blackface version of the "Grapes of Wrath" in the slums of New Orleans, you have a reasonably clear conception of the plot and substance of a recently published novel, "River Bottom Boy," by Harold Matthews.
In his first literary effort, Mr. Matthews, a social worker and executive of the staff of the DePelchin Faith Home and Children's Bureau at Houston, Texas, pictures the struggle of
a Negro family that leaves the comparative security of a Louisiana plantation for the bright lights of New Orleans.
Mr. Matthews leaves little doubt that he is primarily a social worker—not from his writing ability, which is better than average, but from the *strong sociological bent of the story*, which at times weakens an otherwise good narrative.
The story is none too complicated. A colored family, whose ancestors had served on a Louisiana cotton plantation for years, is tempted to New Orleans by prospects of a wealthier life than that afforded in the cotton fields.
Despite the warning of the plantation owner that Negroes are safer and happier on the farm, the family moves to New Orleans. Results are much as expected, with misfortune piling on misfortune, and a tragic ending as usual.
The author does not paint a pretty picture, to exhume an old phrase. Despite faint touches of characteristic Negro humor, the grim overtone and ready atmosphere of New Orleans dice joints and back alleys make "River Bottom Boy" pretty heavy fare for the average reader.
The author, incidentally, received his master's degree in sociology in 1922 from this University.

(continued from page four) tain well-defined principles of the offensive in basketball, Dr. Allen pointed out. In both circumstances the principle aim of any offensive to move forward. However there can be wide differences in the method of moving forward, said the doctor.
Reverse Tricks
"A basketball team on the offensive should constantly reverse its field. In football it is a difficult trick, but

in basketball where two or three men can be used, it is simple and very profitable, for like military strategy it throws the enemy off balance, and pulls them from their defensive positions," explained Allen.
"Each move on the offensive basketball court should be as coldly calculated as a move on the battlefront," added Dr. Allen. "Just as men in the army must learn how to conduct themselves in army offenses, so must they learn offensive maxims such as never pivoting from the sidelines."
"Nor," continued Allen, "can a basketball squad, like an army, ever forget its true objective—the goal
All the fancy passing and dribbling in the world does no more good than an army's fancy drilling unless it is later used for scoring purposes."
Save Men on Court
Economy force will probably be a big factor in the final decision in the present war, the Jayhawk basketball coach pointed out, for if one side can save up a number of men and materials for an offensive when the other side is spent, its chances of success will naturally be great.
"Economy of men in basketball is just as profitable," declared Allen. If one guard can cover the territory in which the enemy has two forwards, all the better for the guard's team. They then have four men for duty elsewhere on the court."
"No smart general uselessly drives his troops to fatigue during a campaign," Dr. Allen declared. "Like-wise basketball squads do well to make the most of their movements, and yet they should be on the move. A stationary man is no threat to the other team."
Goose-Step Silly
Simplicity of movement is an essential in basketball and in military life, stated Dr. Allen. "That is why the goose-step is one of the silliest things ever invented by the mind of man," he stated. "it calls heavily upon men's energies, and gives nothing in return."
"In basketball," said the coach, "we have learned certain principles of simple and profitable movement. For

14. Veterans Return
Thirty-seven men have been working out under Meyer this fall. Sixteen of that number are sophomores, and 14 won varsity letters last fall.
Meyer has been using a starting lineup of four seniors, six juniors, and one sophomore. A poll of sports writers and commentators in the Southwest placed the Frogs in third place in the tough Southwest Conference race.
Well aware of the task ahead of his charges, coach Henry is emphasizing rigorous scrimmage sessions this week in an effort to strengthen his reserve list. Most of the regulars are being withheld from tackling and blocking in order to avoid repetition of the Gene Roberts injury incident. Substitutes, however, are working overtime to provide possible replacements for the TCU game.

Members of three professional medical fraternities at the University of Minnesota - Phi Beta Pi, Nu Sigma Nu, and Phi Chi - were minus $125, taken by burglar while students slept in the third floor dorms.
The highest personal loss was $40 plus car tokens and change. The thieves entered the houses by removing screens from windows.
More Sailors at Carolina
A group of 204 men have arrived at the Naval Pre-Flight training school at the University of North Carolina. There are now 1,400 enrolled in the school. The navy is building an outdoor pool, a hospital costing $100,000, and a semi-prefabricated armory.
When all the additions have been completed the physical education plant of the University will be "one of the best in the world," according to the Tar Heel, the student publication.

Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalism fraternity, has done it again. Dorothy Lourm's personally autographed sarong was given as door prize at the "SDX" Riversert Rassle," at Purdue University.
Dottie's signature was obtained before her appearance in the Boilermaker's stadium. Accompanying the autograph are some lipstick marks made by the screen star with her own lipstick. Tsk, Tsk.
Oklahoma Speeding Along
The state regents of higher education in Oklahoma have approved a program which would provide for three semesters of 16 weeks in length each year instead of the present two semesters of 18 weeks, thus putting the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma A. and M. and other Oklahoma state schools on a 12-month basis.
Under the new plan, it will be possible for students to be graduated from the university in two calendar years and eight months by attending school all three semesters each year and taking only a short time out for vacation.
Nancy Kelly at Princeton
Princeton played host to Nancy Kelly, star of stage, screen, and radio, last week. Miss Kelly played the leading role in the Stephen and Paul Anes' production of "Guest in the House."
Louise Campbell was also featured in the cast, which included most of those originally acted in the play on Broadway.
We heard too about the day the Chancellor carried a bouquet of flowers to his office. He was walking across the campus with the flowers in his arms, and as he paused in front of Frank Strong hall to chat with a friend, he set the flowers on a step. In a few minutes a girl hurried up to him, and pointing to the flowers asked "How much?" "Oh, these aren't for sale," the Chancellor informed her. Lot content to give up the flowers, the girl asked if he could tell her where to find some like them. When the Chancellor told her that he had more like them at home, she immediately questioned him as to his address. "I live at the edge of the campus," he said, "The name is Malott." The girl turned and ran.
Get Firebrick
From Kansas Clay
For the first time in the history on the Kansas clay industries, firebrick is being manufactured from native clay. Firebricks and other refractories are industrially valuable at this time because of the vital necessity for refractories in war industries. Every plant which uses a boiler, furnace or kiln of any type must have firebricks or other refractory shapes to withstand the high temperatures obtained.
The commercial possibilities of the clays of central Kansas were discovered by the State Geological Survey. Sampling and testing of the clays was carried out by Norman Plummer and John F. Romary under the immediate direction of Mr. Plummer. Experiments now being conducted in the ceramics laboratory of the Geological Survey of Kansas are directed toward perfecting a cheap process of purifying Kansas fireclays so that "super-duty" fireclays may be produced from them. "Super-duty" refractories are able to withstand the extremely high temperatures which are obtained in some installations, such, for example, as the boiler fireboxes of our Navy's ships.
Since January, 1942, Ludowici-Celadon Company of Coffeyville has been experimenting with the possibility of manufacturing both standard and light-weight firebricks for use in installations subjected to high temperatures such as furnaces, boiler fireboxes, kilns.
Sculptor's Work On Goodwill Tour
A piece of sculpture entitled "Mare Colt" by Bernard "Poco" Frazier, instructor of design, is included in a group of selected works by sculptors of North and South America which will appear on a good will tour in major museums of the two continents.
The sculptors submitted works to a committee which selected representative statuaries. The pieces then were bought by the International Business Machine Company, who intends to sponsor the tour.
"Mare Colt," a black bronze sculpture standing 26 inches high, was modeled by a day-old colt on a farm in Smith county in 1935. Since then,
the bronze colt has been sent to museums on both coasts, winning several prizes. After the completion of the good will tour which started at the Corcoran museum in Washington, D.C. in August, "Mare Colt" will be on permanent exhibition in New York.
COURT GAME—
(continued from page seven) instance, we never run in straight lines, but always in curves, for it is easier to take a passed ball that way. We don't pivot when we don't have to, for it is a waste of movement. We never dribble when we can pass, for passing is easier. We always run at least several feet from the sidelines, so that a missed pass can be recovered."
The principle of security is equally as important as the principle of the offensive, vouched Dr. Allen.
"No country can afford to leave its borders unguarded. No team can afford to leave its goal guarded."
Drills Are Important
"Alertness is the keynote of the principle of defense," said Dr. Allen. "Alertness is to the basketball squad, what preparedness was to the United States when they entered this war."
Dr. Allen stated that many of his basketball candidates complain of the long hours spent in drills, and the short time spent in scrimmage. This is similar, the cage coach asserted, to the complaints of soldiers that too much time in training is pent in drilling fundamentals, and too little time in sham battles.
"Offers tell me that the drilling is among the most profitable training received by the men in the army," Dr. Allen said. "I know this is true of the basketball court. Players do not learn a single thing in scrim-maginlg. There only benefit is conditioning."
"Here again, we find this true on the basketball court," he declared. I would not give two cents for a basketball man who lacked imagination. He must visualize plays quickly and accurately."
Dr. Allen stated that he had read an article in which it was stated that a good offier was a man with good imagination.
"I cannot help but feel," said Dr. Allen, in conclusion, "that the man who can meet today the requirements placed upon him on the basketball court will aso meet the larger requirements of warfare tomorrow."

He was a volunteer in the A.E.F. in World War I, and was among the first 50,000 to reach France. As a sergeant in the Intelligence Service, he was given a confidential post with the American Peace Commission at the Versailles Conference.
For a time following the war, Streit worked as a reporter in Missouri. He soon returned to Europe, however, as a Rhodes Scholar Oxford. He got his first job as foreign correspondent in 1920. This job was with the Philadelphia Public Ledger in Paris.
Streit covered the Greco-Turk war for the Ledger and later took a permanent post with the paper as its Rome correspondent. He worked in this capacity for several years before joining the New York Times staff in 1925.

More Sailors Here For Naval Machine School
Senate Shortens Christmas Holidays More Sailors NOW They Tell Us! Abandon Armistice Day Vacation Plan ere For Naval
Two hundred sailors marched through Lawrence this morning to the U.S. Naval Training School for machinists mates stationed in the west wing of Frank Strong hall.
The regular procedure of the trainees is to start with blueprint reading and bench metal work, and continue thru instruction in milling machine operation, shaper operation, lathe operation, planer operation, precision grinding, and welding. This is followed by study in the hydraulics laboratory to complete the training.
Recruited from the midwest and east, the men have received from five to six weeks boot training at the Great Lakes Naval Training station, Great Lakes, Ill., and will receive training here that when completed will qualify them as competent firemen or machinist mates below deck on shipboard.
Newspapers must continue to serve as both the mouthpiece and the informant of the American public and therefore must be allowed freedom from censorship, Cecil Howes told a meeting of journalism students in the journalism building Tuesday afternoon.
Howes Reviews Press Censorship
Now that it has been proved that censorship of news is possible, he believed that it might lead to more requests that news be suppressed. If some news is withheld from the public, Mr. Howes explained, the readers may begin to wonder how much more of the news they read is up-to-date and how much news is being kept from them, thereby undermining the people's trust in the press.
He related that the task of the (Continued to Page Eight)
Mr. Howes, Topeka correspondent for the Kansas City Star, said that the voluntary suppression by the newspapers of the news of the President's recent "inspection" trip of the nation had reawakened the question of censorship of the press.
Paramount topic of discussion among students today is the action taken by the University Senate to expedite an alreadyintensified school program by eliminating Armistice vacation, lopping a week off Christmas vacation, and cramming final weeks into six days.
Student consensus seems to be opposed to the Senate's action. It is difficult to comprehend the exigency for curtailment of a vacation program which had been previously revised to suit war aims.
Students want to know exactly WHY they are being deprived of vacation days already too few. The natural answer is the war; that is the excuse of so many haphazardly planned and executed war policies, both military and civil, throughout the country.
Faculty spokesmen have been vague in setting forth reasons for shortening the school calendar, thereby providing an early graduation date-May 17, 1943. They aver the speed-up will release graduating students for armed duty and war industry at the earliest possible moment.
Will the two weeks saved by early graduation be worth the loss in knowledge and efficiency the students will suffer? Our fighting men receive reasonably frequent furloughs. America's military leaders realize that too much work renders even the best of soldiers stale, thus endangering morale.
With Christmas vacation cut in half, many students will find themselves pressed for time in doing term papers during the holidays. Shortening final week by one day each semester means just that much less time to review, all of which is hardly conducive to adequate training and good grades.
There was a three-weeks lapse between the close of summer school and the beginning of the fall term. Although there would have been an acute problem of late enrollment, it seems possible that starting school a week earlier could have been arranged to allow students a few more days vacation throughout the year.
The Senate met this summer to formulate the physical conditioning program which now is compulsory to men of draft age. Yet, at that time, no cognizance was taken of the necessity of shortening vacations.
According to Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, the (continued to page seven)

years, including four summer sessions, without obtaining a degree. Such was Tsuguo's scholastic ability. Those who remember Tsuguo in his years here describe him as diminutive, excessively polite, and apparently lacking in ambition. He

The University Senate, on the recommendation of the Calendar Committee has shortened the school calendar to provide for graduation on May 17. In order to meet this earlier date Armistice Day holiday has been abandoned and the Christmas vacation shortened to include Dec.24,25,26,and 27.
No Further Action On Labor Question
No further developments have taken place in the question of the "Greek" kitchen help. The main question still remains: "Is the kitchen help of the Greek organizations on the Hill dissatisfied and if so will they join the American Federation of Labor and stage a walkout if their terms are not complied with?"
While largely noncommittal, Greek house leaders are still of the opinion that their kitchen help is not contemplating walkouts. The members of the bargaining committee are still ready to take action, however, if any such trouble occurs.
Student Union
★★★
Wants Talent
Newell Jenkins, chairman of the Student Union bureau of entertainment, wants students who have any special talent and are interested in participating in Union entertainments to see him and fill out an application in the Union Activities office as soon as possible. Freshman entertainers especially are needed.
Connections have already been made for the assistance of Prof. Allen Crafton of the department of speech, professors in the School of Fine Arts and the Dramatics Club. The bureau is anxious to get all sorts of entertainment, both group and individual.
The entertainers will perform at banquets, meetings, and possibly as a "floor show" for dances. There is a possibility that they may perform the soldiers at Ft. Leavenworth and Ft. Riley. Contact has also been made with the navy in reference to exchange of talent.
With the present over-crowded conditions in Lawrence, entertainment will be at a premium this year. All students are urged by Jenkins to make an effort towards supporting campus entertainment.

The Christmas recess begins at 5:30 o'clock on the afternoon of Dec. 23. The semester examination period also has been shortened one day each semester.
This action was taken in order to release members of the graduating class to the armed services and war industries at the earliest possible moment, and to provide flexibility in the further study and development of plans for a possible longer summer session in the summer of 1943.
"It is the belief of the faculty," according to Chancellor Deane W. Malott, "that the necessities of these war years demand practically continuous year-round operation of the University and it is furtherance of this objective that the Senate acted to shorten the current year."
The actual class days remain practically the same, 78 in each semester.
Report Reveals Students Choose War Vocations
That the war is having a definite effect on the choice of vocations for University students was revealed today with the release of the report of the University vocational guidance committee. Of the ten leading vocations indicated by the students, five were direct war vocations.
Leading in popularity as a life work was engineering with 16.7 percent of the new students interviewed expressing a preference for the various branches of that profession. Aeronautical engineering ranked first, with mechanical, electrical, and chemical engineering following in order.
Business was the second most preferred subject as a vocation with 9.2 per cent of the new students electing to enter that field. A large increase in students interested in home economics was indicated, what with new emphasis having been placed in this department on nutrition, dietetics, and canteen service. Seven per cent of the new-comers selected home economics as their field of study.
Medical technology attracted 6.5 per cent with chemistry close behind with 6 per cent. Other popular vocations in order of their preference included commercial art, social science, journalism, and law.

Snooping Around
Members of three professional medical fraternities at the University of Minnesota -Phi Beta Pi, Nu Sigma Nu, and Phi Chi—were minus $125 taken by burglar while students slept in the third floor dorms.
The highest personal loss was $40 plus car tokens and change. The thieves entered the houses by removing screens from windows.
More Sailors at Carolina
A group of 294 men have arrived at the Naval Pre-Flight training school at the University of North Carolina. There are now 1,400 enrolled in the school. The navy is building an outdoor pool, a hospital costing $100,000, and a semi-prefabricated armory.
When all the additions have been completed the physical education plant of the University will be "one of the best in the world," according to the Tar Heel, the student publication.
Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalism fraternity, has done it again. Dorothy Lamour's personally autographed sarong was given as door prize at the "SDX" Riverters Rassle." at Purdue University.

Dottie's signature was obtained before her appearance in the Boilermaker's stadium. Accompanying the autograph are some lipstick marks made by the screen star with her own lipstick. Tsk, Tsk.
Oklahoma Speeding Along
The state regents of higher education in Oklahoma have approved a program which would provide for three semesters of 16 weeks in length each year instead of the present two semesters of 18 weeks, thus putting the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma A. and M. and other Oklahoma state schools on a 12-month basis.
Under the new plan, it will be possible for students to be graduated from the university in two calendar years and eight months by attending school all three semesters each year and taking only a short time out for vacation.
Nancy Kelly at Princeton
Princeton played host to Nancy Kelly, star of stage, screen, and radio, last week. Miss Kelly played the leading role in the Stephen and Paul Anes' production of "Guest in the House."
Louise Campbell was also featured in the cast, which included most of those originally acted in the play on Broadway.
We heard too about the day the Chancellor carried a bouquet of flowers to his office. He was walking across the campus with the flowers in his arms, and as he paused in front of Frank Strong hall to chat with a friend, he set the flowers on a step. In a few minutes a girl hurried up to him, and pointing to the flowers asked "How much?" "Oh, these aren't for sale," the Chancellor informed her, lot content to give up the flowers, the girl asked if he could tell her where to find some like them. When the Chancellor told her that he had more like them at home, she immediately questioned him as to his address. "I live at the edge of the campus," he said, "The name is Malott." The girl turned and ran.
Get Firebrick From Kansas Clay
For the first time in the history of the Kansas clay industries, firebrick is being manufactured from native clay. Firebricks and other refractories are industrially valuable at this time because of the vital necessity for refractories in war industries. Every plant which uses a boiler, furnace or kiln of any type must have firebricks or other refractory shapes to withstand the high temperatures obtained.
The commercial possibilities of the clays of central Kansas were discovered by the State Geological Survey. Sampling and testing of the clays was carried out by Norman Plummer and John F. Romary under the immediate direction of Mr. Plummer. Experiments now being conducted in the ceramies laboratory of the Geological Survey of Kansas are directed toward perfecting a cheap process of purifying Kansas fireclay so that "super-duty" firebricks may be produced from them. "Super-duty" refractories are able to withstand the extremely high temperatures which are obtained in some installations, such, for example, as the boiler fireboxes of our Navy's ships.
Since January, 1942, Ludowici-Celadon Company of Coffeyville has been experimenting with the possibility of manufacturing both standard and light-weight firebricks for use in installations subjected to high temperatures such as furnaces, boiler fireboxes, kilns.
Sculptor's Work On Goodwill Tour
A piece of sculpture entitled "Marc Colt" by Bernard "Poco" Frazier, instructor of design, is included in a group of selected works by sculptors of North and South America which will appear on a good will tour in major museums of the two continents.
"Mare Coll," a black bronze sculpture standing 26 inches high, was modeled by a day-old colt on a farm in Smith county in 1935. Since then,
The sculptors submitted works to a committee which selected representative statuaries. The pieces then were bought by the International Business Machine Company, who intends to sponsor the tour.
the bronze colt has been sent to museums on both coasts, winning several prizes. After the completion of the good will tour which started at the Corcoran museum in Washington, D.C. in August, "Mare Colt" will be on permanent exhibition in New York.
COURT GAME
(continued from page seven) instance, we never run in straight lines, but always in curves, for it is easier to take a passed ball that way. We don't pivot when we don't have to, for it is a waste of movement. We never dribble when we can pass, for passing is easier. We always run at least several feet from the sidelines, so that a missed pass can be recovered."
The principle of security is equally as important as the principle of the offensive, vouched Dr. Allen.
"No country can afford to leave its borders unguarded. No team can afford to leave its goal unguarded."
"Alertness is the keynote of the principle of defense." said Dr. Allen. "Alertness is to the basketball squad, what preparedness was to the United States when they entered this war."
Drills Are Important
Dr. Allen stated that many of his basketball candidates complain of the long hours spent in drills, and the short time spent in scrimmage. This is similar, the cage coach asserted, to the complaints of soldiers that too much time in training is pent in drilling fundamentals, and too little time in sham battles.
"Offers tell me that the drilling is among the most profitable training received by the men in the army," Dr. Allen said. "I know this is true of the basketball court. Players do not learn a single thing in scrimmaginglg. There only benefit is conditioning."
"Here again, we find this true on the basketball court," he declared. I would not give two cents for a basketball man who lacked imagination. He must visualize plays quickly and accurately."
Dr. Allen stated that he had read an article in which it was stated that a good offier was a man with good imagination.
"I cannot help but feel," said Dr. Allen, in conclusion, "that the man who can meet today the requirements placed upon him on the basketball court will aso meet the larger requirements of warfare tomorrow."

Senate Shortens Christmas Holidays More Sailors NOW They Tell Us! Abandon Armistice Day Vacation Plan Here For Naval
More Sailors Here For Naval Machine School
The enlarged enrollment will cause the school to operate on a 24 hour basis. The new group will begin school Monday. The first division begin training Monday in the power plant located in the Mechanical Engineering laboratories. In the power plant the bluejackets will do actual work with the equipment and machines and learn maintenance work. Their classes are in two divisions, shop mathematics and machine work, and are taught by instructors provided by the University.
Two hundred sailors marched through Lawrence this morning to the U.S. Naval Training School for machinists mates stationed in the west wing of Frank Strong hall.
Recruited from the midwest and east, the men have received from five to six weeks boot training at the Great Lakes Naval Training station, Great Lakes, Ill., and will receive training here that when completed will qualify them as competent firemen or machinist mates below deck on shipboard.
The regular procedure of the trainees is to start with blueprint reading and bench metal work, and continue thru instruction in milling machine operation, shaper operation, lathe operation, planer operation, precision grinding, and welding. This is followed by study in the hydraulics laboratory to complete the training.
Howes Reviews Press Censorship
He related that the task of the (Continued to Page Eight)
Newspapers must continue to serve as both the mouthpiece and the informant of the American public and therefore must be allowed freedom from censorship, Cecil Howes told a meeting of journalism students in the journalism building Tuesday afternoon.
Mr. Howes, Topeka correspondent for the Kansas City Star, said that the voluntary suppression by the newspapers of the news of the President's recent "inspection" trip of the nation had reawakened the question of censorship of the press.
Now that it has been proved that censorship of news is possible, he believed that it might lead to more requests that news be suppressed. If some news is withheld from the public, Mr. Howes explained, the readers may begin to wonder how much more of the news they read is up-to-date and how much news is being kept from them, thereby undermining the people's trust in the press.
Paramount topic of discussion among students today is the action taken by the University Senate to expedite an alreadyintensified school program by eliminating Armistice vacation, lopping a week off Christmas vacation, and cramming final weeks into six days.
Student consensus seems to be opposed to the Senate's action. It is difficult to comprehend the exigency for curtailment of a vacation program which had been previously revised to suit war aims.
Students want to know exactly WHY they are being deprived of vacation days already too few. The natural answer is the war; that is the excuse of so many haphazardly planned and executed war policies, both military and civil, throughout the country.
Faculty spokesmen have been vague in setting forth reasons for shortening the school calendar, thereby providing an early graduation date—May 17, 1943. They aver the speed-up will release graduating students for armed duty and war industry at the earliest possible moment.
Will the two weeks saved by early graduation be worth the loss in knowledge and efficiency the students will suffer? Our fighting men receive reasonably frequent furloughs. America's military leaders realize that too much work renders even the best of soldiers stale, thus endangering morale.
With Christmas vacation cut in half, many students will find themselves pressed for time in doing term papers during the holidays. Shortening final week by one day each semester means just that much less time to review, all of which is hardly conducive to adequate training and good grades.
There was a three-weeks lapse between the close of summer school and the beginning of the fall term. Although there would have been an acute problem of late enrollment, it seems possible that starting school a week earlier could have been arranged to allow students a few more days vacation throughout the year.
The Senate met this summer to formulate the physical conditioning program which now is compulsory to men of draft age. Yet, at that time, no cognizance was taken of the necessity of shortening vacations.

In the October issue of Cosmopolitan magazine Harry T. Brundidge tells the story of how it works. Inside of three minutes an enemy plane or submarine can be intercepted. A "spotter" phones information on sighted planes to the Interceptor Command. A "plotter" records the information on a huge map called "a filter board." A "teller" co-ordinates all information about planes and direction of flight. A "controller" orders air interception if planes can't be identified. "Pilots" at Interceptor Field leap into fighting gear and fly planes. "Disaster pilots" relay orders to pilots and gets information from them by radio, 20,000 phone calls come in a day to these Centers and it is their job to filter, condense and digest all information. From these points all radio stations can be ordered off the ground, fighters and bombers sent out, anti-nightfall crews instructed and civilian Air Raid Wardens notified so sirens may be sounded.

Streit began his career on the Times in 1925 as a foreign correspondent. He started with a temporary assignment as ghost writer on Count deProrok's expedition to excavate the
ruins of ancient Carthage and explore the Sahara and the bottom of the Mediterranean for lost cities of antiquity.
This led to an assignment to cover the Riff War in neighboring Morocco. There his front line dispatches brought him a permanent post on the staff of the Times.
He was next stationed in Vienna with orders to cover the news in the Balkans. During this time he was spelled from Rumania, but has since been invited to return. Meanwhile, he was shifted back to New York City where he served on the telegraph and cable desk and did special reporting assignments, including the Numgesser-Coli story in Canada and the Guatemala, Salvador, and Haiti laps of Lindbergh's Caribbean flight.
Services Yesterday For Geo. O. Foster
In January, 1929, he was sent by the Times to cover the League of Nations at Geneva. There he remained for the ten years that embraced the peak and decline of the League and World Bank and included some of the biggest world news events of the period.
Funeral services for Geo. O. Foster, registrar emeritus of the University, were conducted at 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon at the First Christian church by the Rev. Harold G. Barr.
Those attending the services from out of town included Judge and Mrs. Wendorff, Leavenworth; Mr. William Piatt, Kansas City; Mr. Elmer Strain, Topeka; Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Elliott, Mayetta; and Miss Jessie Machier, registrar, Kansas State College, Manhattan.

Phi Kappa Psi Holds Freshman Smoker
The pledge class of Phi Kappa Psi held the fraternity's annual freshman smoker for the pledge classes of all the Hill fraternities last night at the chapter house.
This plan for bringing the new frat men of the university together has for years formed a part of the Phi Psi tradition. The same scheme is carried out yearly. Each pledge is identified by a tag on his coat lapel bearing his name and the fraternity to which he is pledged. The men then spend the three hour smoker in getting acquainted, drinking cider, and singing their various fraternity songs.
Dr. Anderson Dies; Funeral Saturday
Dr. Arthur J. Anderson, noted Lawrence physician 'and citizen, died at 6:15 this morning at his home, 715 Vermont Street.
Dr. Anderson was widely known and deeply loved on the Hill because of his work as physician of the Athletic association for 23 years. He never accepted a penny for their his services or the medical supplies he used. He made his service to the University a hobby, which he was able to indulge because of his lucrative practice. He also examined all of the students of the University free of charge and for 35 years did the same for the Lawrence high school children.
Dr. Anderson practiced medicine for 56 years in Lawrence, and on the fiftieth anniversary of his beginning practice here May 7, 1936, he was given a testimonial dinner by the citizens of Lawrence at which he was presented with a silver and mahogany plaque attesting to the esteem with which he was held as a physician and a citizen.
Dr. Anderson's son, Arthur S. Anderson, for a time practiced medicine with his father, but is now a major in the United States armed forces. Dr. Anderson's father before him was also a physician.
Besides his own duties and offices, Dr. Anderson served ten years as medical advisor and chairman of the staff of the Lawrence memorial hospital, was on the State board of health, a member of the Lawrence board of health, president of the Douglas county medical association, and contract physician for Haskel Indian institute

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
Suddenly forgotten are the moans over the plight of Kansas football in the uproar at the loss of a Christmas vacation. The failure of the grid eleven to push over touchdowns suddenly seems relatively unimportant to even the most rabid football fan in view of this latest development. Where once students discussed with hopeless shakes of their heads the pigskin prospects of the Jayhawks, they now argrily mourn the loss of that precious thing—the Christmas vacation. One sports organization—the basketball team—will be affected by the change. Now it must make its swing into the East at least partially on school time. It has been previously planned to make that action train during the Christmas vacation period.
entire trip during the Christmas vacation period. Gwinn Henry is driving his Jayhawks hard this week in preparation for the TCU game. The coach has been experimenting of late with various backfield combinations in the hope of finding one with a scoring punch. While Ray Evans has continued to spark the team, Henry is in hope of finding capable assistance for him this Saturday. Seeing some action with the first string this week have been Hoyt Baker and Frosty Wilson. Neither man will probably start, but both may see considerable action. It seems now that Joe Roberts will see no action against the Horned Frogs, and that Gene Roberts will be used only in case of dire need. Milo Farneti, reserve back and javelin ace of the track team, has checked in his uniform.
Horned Frog Hash—Three members of the TCU coaching staff are at present on leave of absences while in the services. . During Meyer's regime at Fort Worth, the Frogs have attempted 1,924 passes and have completed 881. . Bob Balaban, the Kansan on the Texas squad, stands six feet, four, and weighs 200 pounds. . Star Emery Nix is the only married man on the TCU team . . Captain Bruce Alford ranked tenth in pass receiving in the Southwest conference last fall. He is also a great baseball star. . Little Dean Bagley averaged 3.8 yards a try last year when carrying the ball. . Joe Rogers, letterman guard, has been shifted by coach Meyer to the fullback position. . Says the Illustrated Football Annual of Meyer's charges: "The spry-hopping Frogs are king's row bound."
Iowa State football fans are proud of their line coach, Mike Michalske. In the current issue of Collier, Benny Friedman, Michigan's great all-American quarterback, describes Michalske as the greatest guard he ever saw. Michalske played pro ball with the Green Bay Packers, after completing collegiately with Penn State. He was named six times to the all-professional squad. In his article, Friedman declares that it is not the system, but the players which make a team click. The mighty T bogs down when fleet backs are missing, he declares. And right here on this Campus is all the proof Friedman needs for that statement.
At random—The World Series is a touchy subject with baseball man Bob Fizpatrick, who dropped plenty of money backing the Yankees... "Riffing" Ralph Miller passed for one of the Wichita Comandos touchdowns against Camp Gruber, and set up another with a long pass, as he and his pro mates downed the soldiers 26 to 0 . . . Wellington, usually tops among the state high schools in the grid game, has already dropped two games this fall . . . Eighty-five men are working out on the Kansas State frosh team . . . Oklahoma coaches are worried about the failure of their charges to display a passing attack . . . The K-State student body has challenged the students of Nebraska University to competition in a scrap drive . . . Nebraska fans have already forgotten their team's mediocre showing against Iowa, and are whooping it up after Saturday's impressive win over Iowa State.
Geological Survey Aids War Effort By Investigation
War effort is stressed in all phases of investigation and research in the State Geological Survey this year. The newly-drawn mineral resources map, reports, and general summary help to devolop war plants in Kansas by laying foundation work in geological and mineral fields for planning large industries.
Special investigation of water supplies for defense industries and bomber bases is one important phase of the Geological Survey. Subsurface water is tested for its quality and quantity, and the type of well required. A 1,000-feet core drill is used all over the state for wells.
The Geological Survey also is tent and for refractories. The testing clays, both for aluminum con-United States has not extracted aluminum from clay in large amounts, but Germany has been Field investigation for coal re- time.

oil brines, brought in under the direction of Dr. W. H. Schoewe, for magnesium. R. Q. Brewster and Calvin Vander Werf, both of the chemistry department have helped in analyzing the oil brines for their chemical character, those high in magnesium being the most valuable.
Weak Punting Also Bothers Horned Frogs
"We're working this week to put the foot in football," reports Coach Dutch Meyer of Texas Christian, at Fort Worth, as he gets his Horned Frogs ready for a visit from coach Gwinn Henry's Kansas Jayhawkers.
"In our two games to date we have punted 18 times for a measley average of about 29 yards," Meyer complains.
"We've had two punts blocked, and as a result have just managed to pull two games out of the fire in which we had a decidedly superiority in every respect but kicking. Yes, sir; we're going to do something about that foot part of football!"
In the two games to date-U.C.-L.A. and Arkansas-the Frogs have rolled up 30 first downs against the combined opponents' 11.
T. C.U. piled up 441 yards rushing in the two games, the two opponents together got 105 yards on the ground. Frog passing accounted for 166 yards; opponents' passing for 102 yards.
"Kansas ranked second in the Big Six in punting last year," Coach Meyer points out. "Their average was about 10 yards better than ours is now.
"It's a cinch that if we don't do better at kicking the ball around somebody is going to kick us around!"
Rifle Club Members Must Take Practice
All women wishing to fire on the rifle range this semester must attend four instructional sessions on preliminary rifle marksmenship to qualify, announced Capt. G. B. Smith, range officer.
Members of the women's rifle team will have preliminary rifle marksmanship from 7:30 to 8:20 tonight and tomorrow.
Next week instructions are scheduled to begin on Monday and will end Thursday. All women interested should sign on the bulletin board located in the main floor of Fowler shops, Capt. Smith said.

Cyclone Cage Team Lacks Experience
Louis Menze and several of his basketball players are still giving full time to football duties, but many of the 24-man Iowa State College squad are already conditioning themselves for the coming cage season.
Menzel will call the first practice session for Nov. 2. The opening game is scheduled for Dec. 2 with Simpson college at Ames.
Only three major lettermen will be back for the 1943 season. Replacing Capt. Al Buddolson, the highest scoring player in Cyclone history, Bob Harris, an all-big Six performer, as was Buddolson, and Carol Schneider tallest guard ever to play for Iowa State, will be the big job for Menzel.

Beginning tomorrow, University students, led by the Co-ed Volunteer Corps and assisted by the KuKu Club, will search the campus for tacks, nails, light bulbs, iron fences, to aid in the nation-wide scrap tin cans, and other scrap iron drive now being conducted.
The CVC will work through platoon sergeants who met Wednesday to outline the program. Each platoon leader will have a squad and each squad will collect all the iron they can find in houses and on the campus. Dean Gates, president of the KuKu Club, is planning a similar pattern for the men.
The drive, which will continue for one week, is in cooperation with Dolph Simons, chairman of the state drive, who accepted a challenge from Douglas county, Neb., for a three week scrap metal contest with Douglas county, Kan.
"Christmas cheer for the boys not here," a slogan telling the purpose of the drive, will be plastered over the campus. The money received from the scrap is to be used for Christmas gifts for Kansas men in the armed forces.
Any scrap that can be carried will be piled on the "Christmas cheer for the boys not here" pile in front of Fowler shops. Loads that cannot be carried will be picked up in trucks at the end of the seven day drive. Persons knowing of such loads should notify Major Jill Peck, commanding officer of CVC or Dean Gates, Miss Peck said today. Kansas has a quota of 200,000 pounds to turn in by Jan. 1.
An officers' meeting of CVC is scheduled for 9 p.m. Tuesday and an induction of new members will take place immediately following the drive.

The third major letterman is George Harville, now out for football. Bob Hayes, forward, won a minor letter. Gordon Bell and Fred Clausen were squad members.
The squad of 24 candidates will be cut to about 16.
Hill Employment Offices Make Call for Waiters
A special plea was made today for waiters by the National Youth Administration and the men's employment office.

Sailors Dig Deep For Navy Relief
A one hundred per cent participation was the response of the University's Naval Training school for machinists' mates in the annual drive for contributions to the Navy Relief society. The drive, one of a number of such drives carried on by various naval activities in the nation, was conducted by the officers of the station and was terminated this week. Funds are used to alleviate financial distress of families of navy, marine, and coast guard personnel.
The Navy Relief Society was organized "by the navy, within the navy, to look after the navy's own" forty years ago and with the exception of the recently successful civilian drive for funds to assist navy families during the present emergency, it has depended entirely upon navy personnel for support. An unofficial organization, it gives financial aid in emergencies to families of enlisted men and officers, including marine corps and coast guard.

A Pioneer Passes
With the death of George O. Foster last week, the University lost one of its most beloved pioneers. He was more than just a registrar; to the students, he represented the magnanimity and sagacity that is Kansas.
When George Foster came to the University, a mere lad of 20, in October, 1891, he found a barren hill with four buildings and a student population of 474. In his 51 years of association—44 as registrar—with the University he has helped nurse it from a small group of students and a building or two to the 30-odd building institution, teeming with some 4,000 students, that it is today.
A new student's first impression of the University was the reception he got from George Foster; the registrar was kind, and the student never forgot. Although he shouldered responsibility for thousands of students each year, George Foster was not too occupied to give aid to any individual who requested it.
A teacher and leader in the Christian church for over forty years, a prominent member of the Masons, George O. Foster lived a full and useful life. Perhaps in the future a building will be named after him or a statue will be erected to him.
To the faculty and students of the University, however, George O. Foster will ever be a warm and living memory.
More That Just Words
National Newspaper Week, October 1 to 8. to many indifferent Americans is nothing more than a week in which newspapers boast of their record achievements and attempt to push the circulation beyond an already too high goal! These persons believe the observance is only a profit-making scheme worked out by the most shrewd advertising men and circulation managers.
"Create another week of some kind," these persons cry, "and let the news men have something to write about. We'll read about newspaper week for seven solid days, and then they will start on something else—Fire Prevention Week or National Doughnut Week." This is a popular sentiment among those who do not understand or appreciate the things which today, more than ever, mean life as we know it.
The idea that censorship "can't happen here" has taken a terrific jolt during the past week. While the President of the United States toured this vast nation inspecting war plants, newspapers from coast to coast sat silently by with their hands folded until the Go signal was given. Correspondents who accompanied the President took notes and details concerning his journey, but released nothing until the Commander-in-Chief was back in the East.
Naturally, in war times we must take precautions and expect drastic measures to protect and secure our actions pertaining to the war effort, but this event does prove that news can easily be concealed from the American public without its realizing that such a thing is being done.
What would the morning cup of coffee or the big easy chair by the fireplace with slippers and pipe close by mean if today's newspaper were missing? What good would it do to have the paper there if the chief news were
Just Wondering
We are beginning to wonder if the University Senate has ever heard that old aphorism, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."
controlled in the most strict degree and censored down to scant proportions?
How silent our cities would be without the shout of the freckled face newsboy who has grown up on the corner. How queer a print shop would be without the smell of thick printer's ink and the roar of a free press. What American wouldn't be stunned some day if he were to stumble into a newspaper office and be confronted by military agents and censors
"It will never happen here"? "Our Constitution guarantees it"? Perhaps so, but what is the good of a guarantee—a slip of paper with words printed on it—when most Americans do not know whether this right is still in practice. Indifference and negligence will not protect a free press—neither can a Bill of Rights in the Constitution when it is left to do it alone.
Isn't one week out of fifty-two little enough time to appeal to Americans to stand guard over such a basic institution in our democracy? If only a small number of persons are led to appreciate and value this precious heritage, isn't National Newspaper Week still worthwhile?

NOW THEY TELL US (continued from page one)
University has regularly been receiving queries from the army and navy as to how the school is hurrying up education. Registrar Laurence Woodruff recently attended a meeting in Washington at which army and navy officials flatly said college men, even professors, are to be drafted when needed and insisted upon a speed up in the educational system.
Governmental attitude makes it fairly certain that there is a sound reason for hastening graduation at the expense of vacation. It is possible that this is only the first step in putting the University on a complete wartime footing. The exclusion of many non-essential classes and the requiring of students to take chemistry, physics, mathematics, and other subjects relevant to the war is more than just a remote idea.
There can be little doubt that every University student wants to do and will do the utmost to aid America's war effort. Under the circumstances of the school's abbreviated vacation schedule, however, most of them feel that they are the victims of too little and too late—too little planning and too late action.
"Life of a Soldier . . .
Jacobson Writes Home
Is No Bed of Roses
Life of a soldier is both amusing and serious, Arvid Jacobson, former instructor in the department of design, writes from the signal corps at Camp Crowder, Mo.
Experience in handling sinks in the department of design has aided him in attending to such details when on K.P. duty. Lately, he has escaped culin- ary penalties, but he didn't say how.
In addition to regimental routine. Jacobson is to paint a mural for the recreation room at Camp Crawder. After checking out paints, brushes, pencils, and other painters tools, he is wondering when he is to find time to use them. The subject for the murals are to be done in a humorous style, using such scenes as "washing out 'lingerie', peeling suds. mail call, marching in the rain, hauling gravel, and all the extra things that we do besides learning how to be a soldier."
He describes the gig list as though he has learned his information from actual experience, but he did not admit that he had been gigged. The list is composed of the names of men who have poorly-made beds, lockers out of order, or shoes unshined. When the soldiers are gigged, they are given a few additional jobs such as "cleaning ditches, and hauling material and stuff," Jake explained.

The re-opening of the Patee should be welcome news to everyone.
During training for protection against air attack, the men were given the signal to "scatter." Jake flopped to the ground; his glasses shattered.
After a week of flopping and jumping across streams, the soldiers can go to the showers for 15 cents. The entertainment the men receive is varied. When Benny Goodman was in camp, Private Jacobson was selected from 40 men of company B to hear the orchestra leader, who after the program, invited soldiers to come up for a jam session. Occasionally the camp uses some o its local talent to give a minstre show.
Jacobson signed the letter "Private Jake," although he does not understand why he is so called. He says he has not had any privacy since he left Lawrence.

The A. K. Psi pledge class held its first meeting Tuesday night, mainly to discuss the walk-out. Rather than waste time, they decided to hold it immediately.
So they walked out.
The actives, upon discovery of their absence, locked the house—doors, windows, etc.
When the fresh returned in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, they found that they were either going to have to sleep in the street or do something like climbing down the chimney.
So they chose to climb up the house and try the windows.
Like a swarm of monkeys, the pledges went up the house, trying windows. Some of which were open.
One pledge climbed up to a window which was locked, so wanting in badly, he smashed it. An active, hiding near it, nearly lost a finger from the flying glass.
The sight of blood from the slashed finger quelled the small riot and the actives marched the pledges off to the woodshed.

Kappa pledges Nancy Robertson, Marilyn McEwen, and Virginia Gunolly are roommates.
A couple of days ago, Nancy fell out of her second story bunk, smashing a pile of phonograph records and bruising herself considerably.
The following day, Marilyn fell down a flight of stairs, suffering the same inflections—minus the phonograph records.
At present, the third member of the jinxed room has a premonition that she is soon to break a leg.
(Anyone making a future engagement with Miss Gunsolly will run the chance of taking her out with a broken leg.)

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
That something new will be added is the hope of several faculty members at the University of Oklahoma. The president's office has received several requests for bicycle stands to be put up on the campus to accommodate professors who like to go to class sitting down.
If there are enough requests for the stands to warrant their construction, it is promised that the utilities department will construct them from old pipes and other metal obtainable. They will probably be available to students as well as teachers.
Play Lacrosse at Princeton
Five lettermen at Princeton University have reported for the lacrosse team. All position are wide open or the coming spring and freshmen are eligible. Princeton won the national championship in lacrosse last season.
Growing Beards at School of Mines
Growing Beards at School of Mines The senior class of the New Mexico School of Mines has completed plans for the preparation of the 49ers for the 1942-43 college year. An annual affair with dancing, refreshments for the thirsty and hungry, and all varieties of gambling, the celebration will take place Oct. 17, from nine till two.
Hot Time at Michigan State
The 49ers dance will be strictly costume with a great number of prizes to be offered for the best costumes and the best beards.
Sororities, fraternities, dormitories and co-ops at Michigan State College are nominating their candidates for the king and queen of the gala Mardi Gras to be held Oct. 17.
Candidates are chosen by penny votes, and the candidates who receive the most votes will reign over the party.
Army Show to Kansas State
"The Life of Riley," said to be the best army show of the Middle West, will play a return engagement at Kansas State College Friday night. Seventy troopers from Ft. Riley will be in the show.
The khaki revue was written by and for the soldiers, and presents army life in a true manner. The writers are Pvt. Julian Claman, former New York publicity agent; Pvt. Joseph Hopkins, newspaper man from New Orleans; and Pvt. Irving Kapner, now stationed in Australia.
Women Desiring Work Must Leave Schedules With Marie Miller
All women students, who have at any time made application for employment through the adviser of women's office, leave their class schedules with Miss Marie Miller, assistant adviser of women. All women who no longer wish to be considered for employment, should withdraw their applications.
Miss Miller reports an abundance of jobs of various types. Women with stenographic ability are especially in demand. Other jobs include working for meals, caring for children, and work in Lawrence business houses.

Discuss Freshman Advisers
The fate of the freshman advisory board will be decided by Sachem, senior men's honorary society, in a meeting at 7:30 this evening in the Union building.
The advisory board was originally scheduled to function the first week of school but was postponed because of schedule conflicts.
FORMER K.U. STUDENT-
(continued from page one) was always in great financial difficulties, living from hand-to-mouth, often actually in want. Many times students would take pity on the boy and give him food or buy him a meal. The height of generosity was reached when a collection was taken up to buy Tsuguo a bicycle. A job had been obtained for him on the other side of town and the little fellow had become a familiar sight toiling up and down the Hill, racing from his job to his classes.
Tsuguo's registration cards present a confusing array of facts that are, perhaps, revealing. He was born Feb. 11, 1908, in Kokura. Fukuoka, Japan, and his legal address was Nishinaniwa, Amagasaki, Hyogo county, Japan. His father was Mine Hidaka, an army officer, whom he later marked "deceased" and his occupation "none." In 1937, he put down as his guardian Prof. Henry E. Schoon, German Valley, Ill. In early cards he wrote down that he belonged to the German Reformed church; later he changed it to the American Reformed church; still

later it was merely "Reformed." On an early card this interesting question was found: "Member of what secret order if any." That space had a line drawn through it.
It was remembered that Tsuguo used to receive checks of about twenty dollars from a minister in Iowa. Undoubtedly this is another example of American charity.
Classmates of Tsuguo remembered that he flunked anatomy three times, and that he used to say that he couldn't go back to Japan because he had lost face and would have to commit hari-kari.

(continued from page one) newspaper, that of informing the public and speaking for the public, requires that the newspapers are not hampered by any sort of censorship. This week, set aside for the observance of National Newspaper Week, must be used as well as the weeks to come in an effort to insure that the newspapers will be allowed to print all the news in an unbiased form, Mr. Howes commented.
Citing the fact that only two countries, the United States and the British Commonwealth, are holding to the four essential freedoms of man—freedom of speech, religion, political views and press—he said that none of these freedoms can be taken away if democracy is to weather the storm now over the world.
The meeting closed with a discussion period followed by a dinner given by the journalism fraternity, Sigma Delta Chi, at Evans' Hearth where Mr. Howes was a guest.

40TH YEAR
An estimated 2300 pounds of scrap iron had been turned in at 1:30 p.m. today, the first day of the week-long campus drive. Approximately 1500 pounds are piled on the "Christmas cheer for boys not here" pile located in front of Fowler shops and an additional 800 pounds were turned in to pick up. The campus quota is 35,000 pounds, or 10 pounds for every student.

Persephone To Fight Japs
The Chi Omega jaloppy "Persephone" which caused them so much trouble is in the center of the pile painted with "Christmas cheer for boys not here," and other repitaths. The heads of two bedsteadss mysteriously appeared to add weight and the Phi Gam's are donating a number of old beds to the cause.
Jean Brock, platoon sergeant, notified Major Jill Peck at noon today of 400 pounds to be picked up and the Pi Phi's also have 400 pounds to be picked up by trucks.
Matten Draws Poster
Overlooking the pile is a poster painted by Karl Mattern, associate professor of drawing and painting, with the words of the slogan, "Chistmas cheer for boys not here." It depicts the Christmas packages to be sent overseas to University men in service, purchased by the one-half

Radio Students In Training For Signal Corps
Sixty-six radio students, assigned by the Aircraft Radio laboratory, a unit of the Army Signal corps at Wright field, Dayton, Ohio, are training in Blake hall, Fowler shops, and the electrical engineering laboratory for a period of 24 weeks.
The students, 55 men and 11 women, called engineer trainees, have been selected for training because of special aptitudes in electricity and radio. Although civil service employees, they are under contract to work for the Aircraft Radio laboratory after completing the training program. At Wright field they will develop, inspect, and install radio equipment in combat planes.
The engineer trainees attend classes eight hours a day, six days a week. Six instructors from the departments of physics and electrical engineering give full time to teaching the group.
The men and women come from various parts of the country, but many are from Kansas City, western Kansas, and Illinois. Even Florida is represented. No particular houses have been provided for lodging quarters, but about half of the men stay at the old Pi Kappa Alpha house. The rest of the students are located near the HI and down town.
Freshmen To Talk Politics At Smoker
The Pachaacama freshman smoker will be held in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building Wednesday evening. Oct. 21, from 7:30 to 8:30, it was announced today.
All freshmen who are interested in campus politics are invited to attend. Although there will be no freshman election this year, it was pointed out by the party that freshmen interested should familiarize themselves with Hill politicians and politics in preparation for the years to come.
Of the freshmen who attend this smoker several will be invited into the Inner Circle of Pachacamac, and from this group will be selected a student council representative and some officers of the freshman class.

Five "Stump" Experts in Navy Quiz Program
Winners of tickets to the naval officers' dinner on Navy Day, Oct. 27, on the K. U. Brainbusters radio program broadcast over KFKU last night were John and Ruth Mason, Gerdaline Buhler, 733 Mississippi, Jane Peake, 943 Ohio, Bob Docking, 1604 Stratford Road, and David Davison, 1538 Tennessee.
The tickets were prizes for persons submitting questions that the quiz board was unable to answer.
Miss Peake, Geraldine Buhler and John Mason are University students. Bob Docking is the son of Mr. and Mrs. George Docking, and David Davidson is the son of Dr. and Mrs. A. W. Davidson, of the department of chemistry.
The second Brainbusters program will be held next Thursday evening, with Dr. John Ise as master of ceremonies. Plans are being made to hold it in: one of the University auditoriums. The quiz board will consist of an equal number of naval machinists' mates trainees and R. O.T.C. cadets. The public is urged to submit questions of a general war nature to station KFKU, Room 111, Fraser hall.
These programs are preliminary to the observance of Navy Day. Prof. E. C. Buehler, of the speech department, is general chairman of the Navy Day program.
To Work In Registrar's Office
Margaret Adams, formerly employed in the teachers' appointment bureau, is now working full time in the office of the registrar, H. E. Chandler of the bureau announced today. Winifred McQueen will fill Miss Adams place in the bureau office. Miss Adams began working in Chandler's office two years ago.
Underdog Jayhawks Meet Horned Frogs
A small band of 26 Jayhawk gridsters left today for Ft. Worth, where tomorrow they will attempt the seemingly impossible task of upsetting Coach Dutch Meyer's heavily-favored Texas Christian University Horned Frogs.
Former Students Score In Air Force
"Ready for combat duty" was the stamp of approval placed on the records of three Army Air Force pilots in the advanced flying schools of the Gulf Coast Training Center who were former students at the University.
Every section of the United States, Latin America, even Shantung, China, was represented on the class roster. The mechanics' role in modern air warfare was recognized by this class which established the tradition of electing a crew chief at each field as an honorary member of their group.
Members of the ninth group to graduate since Pearl Harbor, the former students winning silver wings were Lt. Richard Dart of Pratt, a student here in 1938-40; Staff Sgt. Charles M. Linden of De Soto, a student in 1939-40; and Lt. Charles G. Overall of Caldwell, a student from 1935 to 1938.
Jay Janes Pledge Four
Jay Janes, women's pep organization, held pledging ceremonies for Phyllis Wickert, Ruth Kelley, Mildred Whitted and Mary Christianson Wednesday afternoon in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building.
The Kansas traveling squad was one of the smallest in recent years, as Coach Gwinn Henry found himself again this week confronted with the problem of inadequate reserves for
1942 Horned Frog Forward Wall
If the T. C. U. eleven is able to go anywhere in the Southwest Conference race this season, these seven boys of the line will get a lot of the credit. Averaging around 205 pounds, the Frog line still has speed and agility. The players (left to right): Bob Balaban, Cldye Flowers, Mike Harter, James Woodfin, Clifton Patton, Derrell Palmer, and Capt. Bruce Allford.

bis first-stringers.
Not only will Meyer's outfit take the field with a distinct advantage in past records, but the Frogs will also hold an edge in both weight and experience. The TCU line will average around 202 pounds to the man, while Kansas linesmen tip the scales around 190 pounds a man.
For the fourth straight game, sophomore flash Gene Roberts will be on the Jayhawk bench, still crippled with a knee injury suffered in an early season practice. Roberts might possibly, however, see some action against the tough Horned Frogs.

Other Jayhawks slowed down by injuries are Carl Hird and Joe Roberts. It is doubtful if Joe Roberts will see any action against TCU.
The Jayhawks will be faced by a veteran TCU eleven consisting of
six seniors, five juniors, and one sophomore. Holding down the end posts will be two seniors—Bruce Alford, great pass receiver, and spirited little Drummond Slover. Slover will share his end duties, however, with Bob Balahan, topnotch sophomore prospect.

Standing out in the Frog line will be co-captain Derrell Palmer at left tackle, and Clifton Patton, big sophomore, at left guard. The two men
Naval Reservists To Meet Wednesday
(continued to page eight)
Upon the request of the University and the public relations agency of the navy, University men—over 100 in all—enlisted in the Naval Reserve are being asked to attend a meeting at the Memorial Union building at 8 p.m. next Wednesday at which time they will be acquainted with some basic facts of the navy.
Speaking at this meeting, which is to be held in the men's lounge, will be Arthur H. Buhl commander, K. U. Naval Machinist Mates Training School, Lieutenants Wilson H. Crosby and G. G. Tucker, Jr., of the Kansas City aviation cadets selection board, as well as Chancellor Deane W. Malott and Henry Wermer, adviser of men.
Dean F. J. Moreau of the School of Law is in charge of the arrangements.

Three More Parties Change Their Style
Well! Sniffing around for social news brings out a lot of things, and the chief one for tomorrow night is that only one of the four scheduled dancing parties is strictly a hangover from the pre-war era. That is the Sigma Kappa open house, which will be a formal function with Danny Bachmann's band and chaperones Mrs. Edna Ellsworth, Mrs. Maclure Butcher, Mrs. Harry P. Ramage, and Mrs. R. R. Moore.
The Alpha Omicron Pi's are going ahead with their scheme of dispensing with a band and giving the money to the Jayhawk Shelter for relief of children in bombed England. It will be a
very informal affair at the chapter house chaperoned by Mrs. Cora Bentley, Mrs. A. J. Foster, Mrs. H. A. Russell, and Mrs. Charles E. Howe.
Phi Gamma Delta is rechristening its annual tacky party a "Sarong Party from the Fijis." Complete with costumes and decorations, rumor has it that dates will still have to go through the traditional tunnel and kiss their partners before entering the dance proper. Johnnie Pope's band will play. Chaperones will be Mrs. Helen Schinn, Mrs. J. H. Kreamer, and Mrs. C. A. Thomas.
In the Memorial Union ballroom Phi Psi's are having a sweater and skirt party. Again very informal in nature, the entertainment may consist of games as well as dancing. It will be chaperoned by Mrs. Nelle M. Hopkins, Mrs. James A. Hooke, and Mrs. William Huttg.

To Enter Army Work At Arkansas Hospital
Miss Evelyn Herriman, who was graduated from the University last June with her major in physical education, has left for the Army and Navy hospital at Hot Springs, Ark., where she will enter training as a physio-therapy aide. She was named on the dean's honor roll in the School of Education at the close of the school year of 1941, and in her senior year received the cup given for high point woman in the women's physical education department.
Upon completion of her training at Hot Springs she plans to enter the government service in physio-therapy. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Webster of Lawrence.

Clarence Streit Former Classmate of Sandelius
Clarence K. Streit, author and lecturer, who will appear on the University Lecture Course next Tuesday in Hoch auditorium, is a former classmate of Prof. W. E. Sandelius, of the department of political science, who was a Rhodes scholar at Oxford when Streit was a student there.
In characterising Mr. Streit, Professor Sandelius emphasized that he is a man of "idealistic and convincing sincerity." "It is a fine privilege to know Mr. Streit," commented Professor Sandelius. "He is a person who is not concerned primarily with personal success, but he is imbued with idealism"
Streit is the author of "Union Now," a book in which he stated that the main trouble with the world is not the dictators but democratic disunity and proposed a federal union of 15 democracies. His latest book, "Union Now with Britain," applies the principles of "Union Now" to the existing war situation. It advocates that the United States should establish a provisional Federal Union with the British and call a convention to work out a broader, permanent, constitution.
Edward L. Stout, student at the University from 1938-41, received second lieutenant bars and wings in the Army Air Force in August and is now stationed with the coast guard in the East.
Stout received two years of ROTC training here in addition to several hours of CAA training. Since entering the service, he has been in training at Williams, Thunderbird, Luke Fields in Arizona, and Minter Field in California.
Frosh Advisory Plan Dropped by Sachem
Plans for the freshman advisory board are to be dropped this semester, it was decided last night by Sachem, men's honorary organization, at a meeting in the Memorial Union building.
Instead a new plan may be put into operation next semester.
This plan will be determined by the results received from the questionnaires now being sent out by the office of Henry Werner, adviser to men, to about thirty colleges and universities, asking them about their system of advice to freshmen.
After the answers have been received, Sachem will hold a joint meeting with the Owl Club, junior men's honorary organization, to decide what will be done about the freshmen advisory board next semester.
Michigan State College's department of speech helped to enlist 1,600 speakers who average 6,000 speeches a month on various phases of the war effort.
Oklahoma to Clash With Texas Squad
Still scoreless, Oklahoma's war-crippled football team goes doggedly into its third game of the 1942 season tomorrow, engaging Coach Dana X. Bible's strong Texas Steers in the Dallas Cotton Bowl.
Fast and spirited, Texas will cruelly pressure Coach Dewey "Snorter" Luster's red-panted Sooners with a running game that flowed to the fantastic net yardage total of 359 yards against Kansas State.
Texas also out-ran Northwestern's powerful Wildcats at Evanston last week and was four times inside Northwestern's 30-yard line, twice inside the 20 and down to the Wildcat 8 once in the third period although losing to Coach Lynn Waldorf's team, 0 to 3.
Oklahoma's big red line, supported by such sniping line-backers as Center Jack Marsee and Blocking Backs Bill Campbell and Jack Steele, will try to meet the speedy Texas running challenge.
The Sooners checked the Oklahoma Aggie rushing offense with
an average of 2.8 yards per rush September 26, and last Saturday smothered Tulsa's running game, holding Coach Henry Frika's great backfield to a rushing average of only 1.9 yards per play, but admittedly haven't yet met a running game as ruthless as Bible's.
The Texas line strength this year runs to tackles instead of guards. Zurhi Conoly and Stanley Mauldin, strapping Steer tackles, are two of the fastest men in the country at their positions this fall. Jackie Field, ace back, single-handed galloped 161 yards in 19 rushes against Kansas State for an average of better than eight yards every time he toted the squash.

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
The Jayhawks' own Ray Evans right at present happens to be the nation's leading passer. The big junior has thrown 66 aerials this fall, and 31 of them have found their mark, proving him to be a worthy successor to last year's great passing star, Ralph Miller. Four of Evans' passes have been intercepted. Another Big Six ace to crash into the national rankings was Missouri Bob Steuber, who in two games has massed 252 yards by running. Should Steuber continue his present sensational pace, it will be hard for anybody to keep him off their all-American squad. At present Tom Farmer of Iowa leads in total offense, and Bill Daley, perhaps the best back of the year, leads in yardage on the ground.
Southwest conference statistics reveal that not only is Mr. Emery Nik something of a passer, but the 176-pound Horned Frog back is also a classy ball-carrier. Nix at present ranks third in that conference in leather lugging, having picked up 196 yards in 38 tries on the ground in two games. Thus he sports a fine average of 5.2 yards a try. Last week against Arkansas Nix carried the ball 19 times for a gross of 67 yards. Nix this year has attempted 15 passes and completed seven for 91 yards. His teammate, little Dean Bagley, has completed seven out of 20 tosses. Bagley also rates high in punting, having averaged 41.7 yards on six boots. Bruce Alford, great TCU end, rates third in pass snagging, having been on the receiving end of tosses five times. Nix is also tied for the lead in pass interceptions with two for the season.
Testifying to the fact that the Horned Frogs this fall have a rugged offense are the 30 first downs scored this year by Meyer's charges against 10 for the opposition. The TCU machine has moved 434 yards on the ground this year compared to 119 yards for their opponents. In the forward passing department, the Frogs lead 165 to 119 Meyer's squad has attempted 35 passes this year and completed 14 of them. Their opposition has tried 25 aerials, with seven of them being successful. T.C.U punting, despite the efforts of little Dean Bagley, has been way down, with their average at present being 27.7 yards per boot. The hard-charging Ft. Worth squad has lost 95 yards by penalties, while opposing squads were set back but 35 yards.
The football training table at Universities utilizing that system is to be affected too by the government's share the meat campaign, the OPA has announced. The thick steaks and juicy roasts which men of Notre Dame and other schools formerly consumed before going into battle must now give way to meat substitutes. Said the OPA: "This (the campaign) applies to every healthy adult or adolescent whether he digs a ditch, pounds a typewriter, or plays a flashy left end for Alma Mater." The athletic coach at one nationally-known college has estimated that the members of his football squad daily put away at least twice the amount of food the same number of civilians would consume. The good old days at the training table are a thing of the past now, however.
Here's the way tomorrow's big games look—Minnesota (still in our opinion the nation's top eleven) to whip Illinois, Duquesne to breeze past Kansas State, Ohio State to top Southern California, Tulsa to beat Creighton, Washington to win over Oregon, Baylor to take Arkansas, Indiana to down Nebraska in a tough one, Michigan to nose out the Iowa Seahawks (here is a good chance for a tie game). Marquette to beat Iowa State, Texas to defeat Oklahoma, Missouri to beat Wisconsin in the game of the day, Tennessee over Dayton, Alabama to beat Mississippi, Penn to down Yale, Navy to top Princeton, Army to win over Cornell, Northwestern to outlast Purdue, Stanford to nose out Notre Dame, and Rice to beat Tulane. As for the Jayhawks and Horned Frogs, we'll be forced to take TCU by at least four touchdowns.
Pershing Rifles Unit Elects New Officers
Company E-7, the University ROTC Fershing Rifles organization, elected the following officers at a meeting Wednesday evening:
Captain and company commander, Bill Kelly, college senior; second lieutenant and membership officer, Edgar Harrison, pharmacy senior; first sergeant, Page King, education junior.
Representatives from the companies at Washington University, Oklahoma A. & M. College, and the Universities of Arkansas and Wichita will be guests of the University company at an officers' meeting here Oct.17.
After ROTC drill next Wednesday evening there will be a competitive drill for freshman and sophomore ROTC cadets who wish to become members of Pershing Rifles.

IRELAND
John Dewell Heads Brilliant Freshmen
Twins of the T. C. U. squad are Dee (left) and Don Ezzel, right guard and left half. Coach Dutch Meyer gets them mixed up occasionally, so he put one in the backfield and the other in the line. The twins are juniors from Wink, Texas.
A freshman football squal studded with the gems of last year's crep of Kansas high school stars is working out regularly under Coach Wayne Replogle and his assistant, Hubert "Hub" Ulrich, all Big Six end of last year.
The squad is crowded with outstanding tackles and backfield
The squad is crowded men. The only weakness is at center and that is only a numerical one.
Highlighting the backfield material is Newton's John Dewell. Dewell tips the scales at 200 pounds and stands 6 feet, 2 inches. While at Newton, Dewell was chosen all-state end, and his prowess on the basketball court made him all-state center. He is also a top flight baseball hurler. This fall he has been booting punts 75 yards on the fly frequently.
Big Six Will Face Tough Grid Teams
Another outstanding punter and one of the squads best line plungers is Frank Patee of Smith Center. Patee is missing from practice two weeks because of an injured ear.
Voight Weighs 230
Albert Voigt from Wichita East pushes the scales to the 230 mark and is one of the outstanding tac-
With early indications pointing to one of the Big Six's poorest football season, financially and on the gridiron, in recent years, the Big Six teams will attempt a comeback this weekend against first class opposition.
(continued to page five)
Missouri, lone upholder of the Big Six standard in national ratings, will have its hands full as it takes on Wisconsin, one of the favorites in this fall's Big Nine race. It will be the Badger's Pat Harder, ace fullback, against Mizzou's Bob Steuber in a duel which should be the nation's best this week. Wisconsin will have the slight edge of operating on their home field, but indications point to a game which the breaks will decide.
Included in the team's which will oppose the Big Six representatives tomorrow are two powerful Big Nine members, two members of the classy Southwest conference, and two of the stronger independent teams in the country.

Professor of Passing Meyer in 20th Year
Coach Leo R. "Dutch" Meyer of Texas Christian University has well-earned his title of professor of forward passing, for probably no other football coach in the country is more aerial minded than the TCU mentor.
Adequate proof of his success with the aerial game on the gridiron is the fact that past Horned Frog rosters have contained the names of such pigskin pitchers as Sammy Baugh and Davy O'Brien, two of the greatest the game has even known
This year Meyer has another great star, Emery Nix, to handle the passing chores.
Just 19 years ago in the fall of 1923 the Horned Frogs became members of the Southwest conference, and it was in that same year that Meyer joined the TCU coaching staff. Prior to coming to the school as coach, the Dutchman had been a standout athlete at the university while a student there. He had lettered four years in basketball, four years in baseball, and two years in football. His education had been interrupted for one year in 1918, when he served as a lieutenant in the first World War.
Meyer served as freshman football and varsity baseball coach at TCU from 1923 to 1933. In 1934 he was made head football coach, and is now serving his ninth year in that capacity. It is three years longer than any preceding football coach has lasted at the Texas school.
Meyer's record while at the head of the Horned Frogs has been one of the best in the nation. His teams have won 57 games, lost 27, and tied four, for a percentage of .669. In the tough Southwest conference his squads have taken 28 games, dropped 16, and tied four, for a percentage of .625.
Under Meyer, the Horned Frogs have taken the conference championship once (in 1938), and have received
invitations to four bowl games. The Frogs won in the 1936 Sugar Bowl contest from Louisiana State, 3 to 2; from Marquette in the 1937 Cotton Bowl game, 16 to 6; from Carnegie Tech in the 1939 Sugar Bowl, 15 to 7; and lost to Georgia in the 1942 Orange Bowl, 26 to 40.
Always featuring a strong passing game, Meyer's teams have gained well over six miles in the air during his coaching regime.
Meyer is a calm coach, who never tries to fire his men emotionally. Says he of such tactics: "I want a boy to play with his head, not with his heart.
The Dutchman's charges this year have already racked up two more victories to be added to his fine record. TCU this fall holds triumphs UCLA and Arkansas University.
Meyer's hobbies are golf, bridge, hunting, and farming. He has a farm near Fort Worth, where he spends his spare time raising sheep.

Commentary by the KANSAN Editorials * Features * Patter
The Greater Demands of Peace
In recent weeks, returning undergraduates as well as freshmen have heard much talk of their responsibilities as college students during war time. Emphasis has been placed upon duty to their country in training themselves as future officers, and that emphasis is justified.
A further responsibility, however, does exist. Students of American universities must train themselves not only as leaders on the battlefield, but also as leaders in society.
If winning the war is important now, the creation and maintenance of a successful peace will be vastly more important later. In that peace the objects for which we are fighting will be won or lost. It is then that democratic concepts will meet their final judgment.
If we fail then—if we stop fighting when the battle is only half won—we will gain nothing except the hopelessness of another international muddle.
No one can gauge the demands that tomorrow will put upon today's college student. It is certain, however, that he must know what he fought for and the true implications of his nation's position in the world. He must train himself now to be a competent, constructive critic of the war effort and of the peace to follow. He must make good citizenship a democratic achievement, not a democratic ideal.
On the campuses of America, such attitudes seem to be often lacking. Mingled with the concentrated war effort is, paradoxically, an escapist inclination. That must be wiped out, and only the brutal realization of the job ahead can do it.
It is a university's job to temper the philosophies of her men and women to the pitch of patriotic sensibility. It must prepare them to fight for what they believe in a post-war world of dangerous confusion. It must bring forth leaders in a "lost" generation to bring order out of chaos.
It is a challenge. The lasting success of our war effort partially depends on how it is met.
-R.C.
So Far So Good
Yesterday Kansas nosed out Utah to take the lead in the national scrap metal salvage drive. The 24 top states have collected more than one billion pounds of iron and junk steel.
Even though some of the Western Kansas counties will not be organized to gather scrap until November, the collection amounts to 72.1 pounds of scrap a person, which is 10.2 pounds more than Kansas' nearest rival, Utah. The western farmers are harvesting wheat and will not have time to hunt and haul scrap until next month.
It may be necessary to put the several hundred state employees; inspectors and auditors, who are traveling about the state, to work goading local committee members into action. Kansas expects to raise 200,000 more tons of scrap before the drive ends Oct.17.
Why is Kansas leading the entire nation in collecting scrap? Kansas is almost exactly in the center of the nation and not nearly so subject to attack as almost any other state, and so far the war has probably not affected us as much. Is it possible that Kansas has more scrap metal than the other states?
There are two kinds of leaders—those who blaze a way and those who just blaze away.
Just Wondering
The state as a whole does not have nearly so large deposits of iron ore or as many smelting furnaces and foundries as some of the eastern states. However, Kansas, being in the geographical center of the United States probably has more old railroad tracks and railroad equipment which will be used for scrap. The large Kansas farms require much heavy machinery and much of it has become outmoded. Kansas also has many cars and trucks in proportion to the number of people.
Kansas has sent many men to the armed forces, and it is our duty to keep them supplied with arms and ammunition. The recent construction of several defense plants in the state has also made us more war conscious and anxious to do our part.
The drive is not over. We have raised 650, 000 tons of scrap; we still have to get 200,000 tons more to fill our quota. Upon our scraping up every bit of scrap available depends the success of our soldiers in battle.-C.O.

In the library yesterday morning Donice Schwein, Theta pledge, suddenly loosed a string of pearls from around her neck, scattering the little white spheres in all seventy-seven directions.
Instantly, coming from the same seventy-seven directions, males leaped into view, all on their knees after the pearls.
For minutes, Donice sat in wonderment while young men brought her the retrieved beads.
It all brings to mind that probably the politest men in the world are fraternity pledges trying to make contacts.

Say, these Theta's are doing all right.
Joyce Shook, Theta pledge, has practically inherited a nice convertible from the Sig Alf house—it used to belong to a guy by the name of Howard Miller.
Maybe it's because the Theta's eat so much spinach—or it could be attributed to the fact that they used to live next door to the Phi Psi's and learned how to get along with men.

Pope, Bachmann Furnish Jive ★★★ ★★★ Music Makers on Oread
Do you know your Hill bands? Do you know who leads the orchestras that bring such solid jive to the University? Well, Hep-cats, here's a chance to meet your orchestras.
At the head of one band is Johnny Pope, college senior while Danny Bachmann, college sophomore, fronts the other band. Both these leaders are experienced musicians. Brothers school to
Bachmann played trombone last year in Walt Marty's band, and when in Newton high school, he had his own orchestra, which toured over a large part of central Kansas. Pope can be remembered as a trumpet man in Russ Chambers' and in Clyde Bysom's orchestras for the past two years. Both leaders are hard-working lovers of their own particular style of music.
Don Cousins, playing saxophone for Bachmann's band, is a college junior. Cousins rehearses the band, having had his former experience at the Hotel Washington, Washington, D.C., with a band including six men who later joined Charlie Spivak's orchestra, and two men who are now with Gene Krupa.
Walt Marty, college sophomore, also a sax man, had his own band last year. This band, while not playing at many University functions, became popular throughout the surrounding country. On the tenor sax is Jimmy Hollyfield, who helps with the band's arranging, and is a "scat" singer. Bob Canatsey college freshman, was a former sax man in the Topeka band.
From New York to play the sax in Pope's band is Johnny Williams, junior in engineering, whose swinging out on "hot" numbers is exceptional. Bob Carle, formerly with Chambers and Bysom, finds time from his instructing at Ashercraft

Carl Bushey has played on the Hill with different bands for many years. His latest band connections were with Clayton Harbur. "Doc" Huling, college freshman, on the sax, is a newcomer on the Hill but does not lack in experience from high school.
On trombones in Pope's band are two popular players from last year. Jimmy Hammer, remembered as the front for Chambers' band, also fronts Pope's. Hamner also played with Harbur.

BIG SIX--looked better in losing to the Cornhuskers than they did in winning from Denver the previous week. Therefore, the Cyclone fans are conceding the visiting Marquette Golden Avalanche nothing in their contest tomorrow afternoon.
(continued from page four) have served notice that they have a team on par with last year's undefeated outfit, as they last week slaughtered a highly-regarded Holy Cross eleven.
Aggies Have Zeleznak Kansas State will pin its hopes on sophomore backs and Mike Zeleznak, as they attempt to pull what would be the greatest upset of the season so far.
Nebraska, already the victim of one Big Nine squad, will try again. This time Indiana will furnish the opposition, and leading Bo McMillen's gridsters will be one Billy Hillebrand, just about tops the nation over as a back.
Nebraska, however, has experienced an upsurge in football morale this week following last Saturday's convincing triumph over Iowa State, and will throw a stout forward wall plus running backs of the quality of Al Zikmund against the strong Indiana team.
Cyclones Lock Good In Ames the general attitude following last week's loss to Nebraska was that the Iowa State Cyclones
Coach Ray Donels has at Cyclone practice session been stressing a defense against Marquette's sophomore running and passing ace, John Strzykalksi. Ready to lead the Iowa State offense are Royal Lohry and Paul Darling.
The Sooners have as yet failed to show their rooters anything that would justify the backing they received in some quarters for the Big Six championship. However, should Oklahoma sophomores find themselves tomorrow, the heavily favored Longhorns might be in for a good deal of trouble.
Oklahoma will play host to Texas University, and the Sooners fear they are in for a tough Saturday afternoon. The Texas squad is expected to be on the rebound following last-week's loss to Northwestern, and Jackie Field and company are capable of doing almost anything.
Gwinn Henry's Kansas Jayhawkers are given even less of a chance for an upset victory at Ft. Worth against Dutch Meyer's TCU Horned Frogs. As yet the Frogs have not lived up to pre-season expectations, but they would still seem to carry many guns for the undermanned Kansas eleven.

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
All men students at the University of Nebraska will be given an opportunity to take a two weeks leave of absence to help plug a labor shortage on defense projects and upon farms in the near future, according to University officials.
As the set-up now stands, those interested will contact Dean T. J. Thompson's office and a check-up will be made to see if dropping out of school for the two-week period would jeopardize the students' academic chances for the year.
Another War Casualty
Because of a shortage of male voices and the uncertainty of the times, the Bethany Choir and its director, Dr. Haebard Brase, decided to dissolve the organization for the duration of the war.
The Bethany Choir has an enviable record in its seven years' existence, being runner-up in 1938 in the Columbia Chorus Quest of the Columbia Broadcasting System. The choir has given one hundred five concerts, broadcasts, and small programs, and has sung over Columbia, Mutual, and local hook-ups.
Women Plan Chorus
Women at the University of Oklahoma will try out for the two singing parts and the twelve parts for women in the chorus of the Pulitzer prize winner, "Of Thee I Sing," to be given early in November.
The musical is the Will Rogers field production. The cast will be made up of many professionals and is directed by Elisha Cook, Jr., young actor of Broadway and Hollywood now in the army at Will Rogers field.
An Octogenarian Goes to War
Iowa State's famous 87-year-old locomotive is being offered as scrap to the nation's war savage drive. The locomotive has been on the Cyclone campus for 37 years.
This campus landmark was a narrow gauge locomotive that gained her right to fame in 1855 when she was ferried across the Mississippi River to be the second locomotive to enter Iowa. When the Mississippi and Missouri Railroad widened its guage, the locomotive worked with the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad.
If the locomotive proves worthy of salvage, Iowa State will lose a famous relic which has been cherished since 1905 as a familiar landmark on the campus.
Another Contribution to Scrap
Another Contribution to Scrap A streetcar and an automobile belonging to John Geduldig, student at the University of Minnesota, had an argument Monday and he automobile came out second best.
Gedudiq felt that the car would never run again, or at least would run better as a tank of a B-17, so he turned it in to his fraternity, Kappa Sigma, for the University scrap drive.
The War Production Board has gone on a work schedule of eight hours a day. six days a week for the duration.
Eighteen Elected To Modern Dance Group
Eighteen women have been chosen as members of Tau Sigma, modern dance sorority. The final try-outs were held last night in Robinson gymnasium with the following girls elected: Penny Asheraft, Betty Ball, Maurine Blair, Margaret Borders, Penelope Boxmeyer, Betty Cohagan, Cathrina Fruin, Helen Gardner, Jackie Hansen, Dorothy Lee Miller, Joan Power, June Reed, Nancy Robinson, Peggy Schroeder, Virginia Shaeffer, Jackie Starr, Marilyn Sweeney, and Martha Thompson.
The organization has limited the number of pledges this year. In former years there have been approximately 40 women chosen as new members.
Pledging services will be Tuesday evening in the gymnasium before the regular meeting of the week begins.
SCRAP IRON--cent a pound the scrap iron will bring Scrap metal is desperately needed by American foundries and the national drive was begun, giving Kansas a quota of 200,000 pounds by Jan. 1, most of which must be collected before the first snow. Dolph Simons, chairman of the state drive, asked the students through the CVC to cooperate and do their part to help win the war. "Lack of scrap metal is the most critical situation in the war program," he said.
(continued from page one)
Any Old Iron?
Anything containing iron can be used to make ammunition and other necessities for the service men seeing action.
Lieut, Persis Snook, as conservation chairman is in charge of the drive for CVC. Other members of the committee are: Jean Hoffman, Doris Dunkley, Jean Sellers, Joy Howland and Jill Peck.
Platoon Sergeants who are in charge of squads who work as units in collecting scrap metal are Marian Hepworth, Jean Brock, Merriam Ranson, Margaret Butler, Alice Stone, Mignon Morton, Arlene Beuker, Mildred Schmidt, Doris Hodson, Barbara Kreider, Helen Blincoe, Peg Scherrer, Mary Louise Harley, Betty Felt, Betty Isern, Maxine Walker, Florence Brown, Althea Shuss, and Mary Gans.

MUSIC MAKERS--positions. Bob Githens will once again be the starting center, Henry has indicated, replacing sophomore Junius Penney. Crawford and Long will be back at the guard posts, Hardman and Dick will be at the end positions, and Hodges will handle the other tackle slot.
The drummer for Bachmann is a full-blown Comanche Indian, and seems to have the love of drums as a natural heritage. Phil Cato, a senior in high school, is also a ballad singer for Bachmann. Don Price handles the drums for Pope. Price played with Skipper Hawkins in
On the brass for Bachmann are Charlie Kassinger, college sophomore, and Harry Johnson, and Don Holman, both college juniors. The piano men of both bands also act as arrangers. Warren Durrett, with Pope, is featured on the piano. Durrett was formerly with Buddy Fisher and toured the East with him. He is polished both at arranging and playing. Melvin Zack, college senior, arranges for Bachmann. Zach has written an original number entitled, "Hey, Hitler," which is another anti-axis jive.
Harold Bundy plays bass for Fope. He was formerly with "Red" Blackburn and Chambers. Another swing vocalist with Bachmann's band is Dick. Thompson, college freshman, who plays bass. Thompson handles the special arrangements and writes a few originals.
Wichita and Dick Tippin in Lawrence.
Sidney Dawson, popular Hill singer, is featured with Pope's band. The Four Nobles, a vocal quartette, with the Modernmaires' style of singing, completes Bachmann's bill. The Nobles are: Cato, Holfield, Thompson, and Bachmann.
Pope is scheduled to appear at several open houses and three or four fraternities this month. Bachmann will be heard on Oct. 23 at Meadow Acres in Topeka. He is booking during the Christmas Holidays and is scheduled to be at the St. Jo Frog Hop sometime after Christmas.

UNDERDOG JAYHAWKS--positions. Bob Githens will once again be the starting center, Henry has indicated, replacing sophomore Junius Penney. Crawford and Long will be back at the guard posts, Hardman and Dick will be at the end positions, and Hodges will handle the other tackle slot.
Meyer is expected to alternate two backfields, both built around great quarterbacks. On one squad Emery Nix, sensation of the Frog squo so far this year, will call the signals, while on the other Dean Bagley, 150-pound scatback, will operate at the tailback post. Other backfield aces of the Frogs include Montgomery, Bond, Hall, Don Ezell, McCollom, and Rogers.
Coach Henry has indicated that only one sophomore will get the starting nod for the Crimson and Blue. Carl Hird is expected to be sufficiently recovered from a recent injury to occupy a tackle berth. Githus Will Start
Veterans will occupy the other ten
The starting Jayhawk backfield will consist of the same eleven which began the Denver game, Henry said. The quartet consists of Altman, Linquist, Evans, and Sherwood.
Scheduled to see plenty of action in the backfield tomorrow, however, is a newcomer—Frosty Wilson. The sophomore has plenty of spirit, and has been looking very good in recent scrimmage sessions. Other backs who may get into the game are Hoyt Baker one of the best of the sophomore crop, and Kenneth Adams, a good pass receiver.
Penney, Don Johnson, Lewis Musick, Paul Turner, Otto Schnellbacher and Charlie Black are expected to see action on the line.
Substitutes Scrimmage
Coach Henry has spent the better part of this week attempting to develop capable reserves for his regulars with heavy scrimmage sessions for the substitutes. The manpower situation on the Jayhawk grid team is the most serious he had ever encountered, the coach says.
The Jayhawk mentor has warned his charges of the offensive power of their opposition. He pointed out that not only has Meyer's outfit got its usual smooth passing game, but has also developed a high-geared running attack that has been rolling over opposing squads this fall. Emery Nix in particular has been effective carrying the piskik.
TCU this fall holds a 7 to 6 triumph over UCLA at Los Angeles, and a 13 to 6 win over Arkansas.
Coach Meyer has repeatedly declared that his squad has not yet lived up fully to its possibilities and is hoping his team will "really get to rolling" tomorrow.
Football fans attending the game expect to witness an aerial battle, however, as Henry attempts to match the Frog's Bagley and Nix with his own Ray Evans. Evans at present is the leading passer in the nation. Sophomore Baker might also do some hurling for the Kansas squad.
The team left for Ft. Worth this morning at 8:48 o'clock, and will arrive there at 10:25 this evening. The return trip will be made Sunday.
An Aerial Battle
This year's game marks the first meeting of the two teams. They are scheduled to clash again next fall, this time at Lawrence.
Men making the trip in addition to the coaching staff were Kenneth Adams, Harlan Altman, Hoyt Baker, Joe Crawford, George Diek, Ray Evans, Boh Githens, Paul Hardman, Carl Hird, Warren Hodges, Grant Hunter, Don Johnson, Lin Einquist.
Gene Long, Lewis Musick, Bernard Passman, Junius Penney, Gene Roberts, Joe Roberts, Otto Schnellbacher, Walt Sheridan, Gene Sherwood, Lloyd Svoboda, Paul Turner, Charlie Black, and Frosty Wilson.

☆ ☆ ☆
"Lanzer," pure blooded collie belonging to Bernard "Poco" Frazier, instructor in architecture and design, is rather particular about the company with which he is seen, even if he is associating with "Oskanoxie," dog of Henry Werner, adviser to men.
Picks Friends
Early one morning before anyone else was on the Hill, a professor saw "Lanzer" scampering about with "Oskanoxie." Recognizing the collie, the professor called to the dog. "Lanzer" hid behind a tree. He was not going to be seen in public with a mongrel English sheep dog that was named after the towns Oskaloosa and Tonganoxie, but early in the mornings he skips out to scamper around the Hill with his undercover friend.
The nighty has fallen! Persephone, the once incomparable Model-A-Ford, which for the last year has served many a Chi Omega a long uncomfortable walk, is now lying in front of Fowler shops, just one more article in a pile of steel for the University scrap drive.
Thus, the sorority makes its contribution to the nationwide
Don Cossack Chorus Opens Concert Series
The General Platoff Don Cossack Chorus will open the fortieth consecutive University concert series Oct. 21 in Hoch auditorium. The chorus of 27 Russians will present a varied program of native music and dances.
The program will include music from the Russian church, native folk songs, lullabies, and Cossack songs. A knife dancer, who carries twelve knives in his mouth, chin, lips, and shoulders, will be featured.
D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, reports a steady call for season tickets and adds that they may still be secured at the office of the School of Fine Arts in Frank Strong hall.
Thus, the sorority makes its scrap drive to make more weapons for our armed forces. Students from all over the Hill are contributing such articles as they can find in their rooming houses that are not useful and will make another bullet. Serap is Asserted
Activity tickets will admit students. Reserve sections for faculty and townpeople will be marked.

Northern Illinois State Teachers College has conducted 20 3-day institutes in nearby towns to train leaders of wartime forums.
Models Used To Explain New Camouflage Procedure
The art of camouflage by use of models will be demonstrated to the camouflage class Monday night by Bernard "Poco" Frazier, instructor in architecture and design. The students will inspect dioramas with respect to camouflage possibilities.
George M. Beal To Naval Service
George M. Beal, professor of architecture, has been appointed a lieutenant, junior grade, in the Naval Reserve, and will leave Tuesday for the University of Arizona at Tucson for indoctrination work. Professor Beal served as a midshipman in the navy during the first World War, and attended the Naval Academy at Annapolis.
Graduated from the University with a bachelor of science degree in 1923, Professor Beal has been teaching here for 19 years. He received a diploma for work taken at the Ecoh de Beaux Arts, Fontainebleau, France in 1927.
Invented Sun Machine
Professor Beal is the inventor of the heliodon, or sun machine, a device which calculates the position of the sun at any given time of the day in any part of the world, and aid to architects for solving problems of natural lighting. He is vice-president of the Kansas chapter of the American Institute of Architects, a member of Scarab, architecture fraternity, served for six years as editor of Scarab's national publication, and has been a member of the Society for the Promotion of Engineering Education, on the Board of Directors for University Club, and chairman of the city planning commission. In addition, he has done professional work in the offices of outstanding architects as Frank Lloyd Wright and Edward W. Tanner.

Band Revises Gay Nineties
Casey and his strawberry blonds will furnish the romantic interest for "Gay Nineties Day," field exhibit of the University band, which will be given at the half of the football game with Oklahoma, Oct. 17. The hero will ride across the field with his lady on a tandem bicycle to the tune of "A Bicycle Built for Two."
It will not be an easy ride for the couple because a villain, equipped with handle-bar mustache, will appear alone on a tandem and try to abduct the heroine.
Do not think, however, that the villain gets away with this foul play. He is pursued by two Keystone cops, waving shillalahs, and, coisus," he is foiled in the end when they drive him from the field. In the meantime he has not contented himself with terrifying the heroine, he ogles the two drum majorttes, Dorothy Nicholson and Doris Kyle. He may even make a pass or two at women in the audience.

Sophomore representatives, Catherine Foster, Dorothy Chapin, Alice Louise Brown, Sandy White, and Jack Moore.

TCU Defeats Jayhawks In Lopsided Tilt
An impressive TCU football team yesterday afternoon crushed an out-manned Kansas outfit 41 to 6 at Ft. Worth, scoring in every period and running through the Kansas defense almost at will.
For the Horned Frogs it was the

The Kansas touchdown came in the final quarter of play, and was the first counter the Jayhawks had pushed over this year. They had gone scoreless in all of three previous contests against the Iowa Cadets, Marquette, and Denver.

University Women To Serve Dances
For the first time last night, University women were allowed to participate in the Cooperative Club-sponsored dance for service men at Lawrence's municipal auditorium. Considering its newness and a slight natural retiance on the part of the female population to participate in an activity where they must go unescorted, attendance was good.
These dances have been the administration building and other men in uniform since July, but it was just this week that a satisfactory arrangement was made between University and dance officials whereby women on the campus could attend. They will continue every Saturday night.

Both Men and Women Raise Wail On Clothes
"What? No tennis shoes? Not even any brown-and-white saddles? What'll I do about footwear?" comes the wail.
Rumors that certain types of clothes will be difficult, if not impossible, to buy because war effort calls for the material in them are at last confirmed. $ ^{*} $
impossible, to buy because w in them are at last confirmed. Black, brown, or white—all solid colors, with no mixing—are your only choices of war-time shoes after those in stock have been sold. Rubber, or part rubber, footwear is a thing of the past and immediate present, but not of the future. Only rubber possible on shoes will be black reclaimed rubber soles.
Metal is something one puts on a scrap metal pile and not on shoes or clothes. Plastics have replaced it on clothing wherever possible. Skirts Become a "Must"
The typical college girl will be forced to apply her brain to the problem of "what shall I wear?" again. The sweater-skirt solution is all right, providing she already has a goodly supply of skirts and doesn't grow out of them. All-around pleated skirts and pretty plaids just aren't offered, and all pleats have narrowed somewhat.
"But the feminine touch has been accentuated, and dress-up dresses are fussier than ever," managers of
women's ready-to-wear departments assure those in fear of becoming drab. "More bows, sequins, and jewelry are being worn."
Men's styles, too, have recognized the war. Coats have been restricted as to length, and excess drape has been removed. All overcoats are shorter this year.
All-wool suits of any shape, size, or description are nearly impossible to buy, so conserve what you already have. Vests are no longer a part of double-breasted suits.
Cuffs are non-existent on trousers if there is a fraction of wool in the material. Cotton and rayon shacks may still have cuffs, however.
Maybe the nudists have something, after all.

Exhibit In Dyche---
Mining Work Speeded By Fluorescent Lighting
Uses of fluorescent lighting in war is illustrated in the demonstration of fluorescent and phosphorescent properties of minerals in a display in the basement of Dyche museum.
Discovering the presence of tungsten in minerals by the has proved to be a war-time asset to the is $ ^{6} $
Just why some minerals will fluoresce and others will not remains unknown. The belief exists that the property is due to impurities in the mineral.
Discovering the presence of aid of fluorescence has proved United States. The country is now practically self-sufficient in producing the mineral, while about ten years ago, three-quarters of our supply came from China. In manufacturing war supplies such as armor plate, armor-piercing shells, and high speed tools for steel working, tungsten is indispensable because of its ability to harden steel and resist heat.
The mineral scheite contains tungsten, and when placed under an ultra-violet light will give a fluorescent appearance. Miners have found scheite at night with the aid of ultra-violet lamps.
At the exhibit in Dyche, a special pale blue light shining on the minerals illustrates their fluorescent properties. Samples of sphalerite,
wurtzite, aragonite, fluorite, and celestite are especially phosphorescent. When looking at the minerals without the pale blue light turned on them, it is impossible to note their color changing qualities; as there is no way of distinguishing the property with the naked eye. Light from Mercury Lamps
ht from Mercury Lamps
In the display, the light comes from a special type of mercury-vapor lamp. This particular ray will pierce quartz, but not glass. One sees only a degree of the light actually there, since the eye is sensitive to only the colors below dark violet on the spectrum.

Debaters To Use Navy For Topic
Students in Prof. E., C. Buehler's classes in debate are preparing a speech program as part of the policy of the student speakers' bureau on war information. These speakers have prepared talks upon how the navy makes history.
The students will give speeches at civic clubs, high school assemblies and grade schools in Douglas county. They will also be available to fill in part time for classroom lecture periods for any class which deals with related subject matter. Speeches are based upon wide research and are organized to give the maximum of information. They range from five to eight minutes in length.
The following subjects will be dealt with: "How Navies Have Made History in the Past," "The Present U. S. Navy," "Customs and Traditions Of The Navy," "Battleship and Fire Power," and "Air Force and Its Relation To Battleships."
Anyone wishing services of the student speakers' bureau on war information should see Professor Buehler.
War Influences Forensic Program
... BUY WAR STAMPS ...
Although stressing activities of the intramural type this year, the University will continue its forensic program, Prof. E. C. Buehler, debate coach, said yesterday. The number of out-of-town trips will be reduced, however, Professor Buehler indicated.
The Missouri Valley Forensic League will continue as usual. The annual Delta Sigma Rho tournament will also be held at Iowa University, and the University will hold a number of dual debates with neighboring schools.
Throughout the nation, activity in the debate field is being intensified in many places on the theory that now, more than ever, is the time for clear, concise thinking. In order to correlate this theory with the war effort, universities are making their maximum contribution to the future world problems by training the mind and education people as to world problems at the same time, Professor Buehler pointed out.
"There isn't any story in the world that is good enough to justify risking the life of a single American soldier." -Raymond Daniell, London correspondent of the New York Times.

Pressbox Ramblings By L. Donald Keown
Football interest at this University seems to have hit a new low during the present week. So disinterested was the student body yesterday that cheerleaders failed to even drum up a good imitation of a pep rally between morning classes. However, there were certain other circumstances which have to be considered, since there was something of a mixup in arrangements. In truth, the football squad this fall has as yet done nothing to arouse the enthusiasm of the student body. A defensive squad never appeals to the crowd. Sports fans with few exceptions prefer a high-scoring team, win or lose, to one which presents a stout defense but no offense. A Ralph Miller or even a Don Pollom in the backfield might make the present Jayhawk outfit a crowd-pleaser.
$$
$$
Certainly last year's team managed to make things interesting for the fans all the way. The team lost two-thirds of its games, but there was no telling when they would break loose with something that would bring the crowd to its feet. Last year's Kansas State game proved that. The fans were always on he alert for Denzil Gibbens, Ray Niblo, or Pololl to break away on a broken-field scamper to touchdown territory. Ralph Miller and Evans were both passing threats that kept the enemy secondary in hot water much of the time. It was a losing team, but a colorful team. So far this year the Jayhawks have lacked that color. The line has been tough—far above average for a Kansas line—but the punch has been sadly lacking.
Perhaps, however, it is too early to give up on the Jayhawks. There is still a distinct possibility that they will yet come up with an attack that will push over several touchdowns before the season ends. This possibility is very largely wrapped up in a sophomore scatback by the name of Gene Roberts. Few football observers realized just what a severe blow Roberts' knee injury was to coach Gwinn Henry's plans for this season. Roberts was not just an important part of the Kansas running attack, he was the running attack. And the Kansas City youth can carry the mail, too, as fans who attended last year's alumni-varsity battle at Haskell Stadium can testify. Roberts performed with the alumni in that game, and was a constant thorn in the side of varsity players. When Roberts gets back into condition for regular action, Jayhawk followers might see plenty of scoring, if the flash is not slowed down too much by the bad knee.
It was a bad day for Kansas football hopes when the Big Six decided not to use freshman players this fall. If you don't believe that just travel down to Memorial Stadium some afternoon and watch those freshmen gridsters work out under Rip Replogle and Hub Ulrich. They rate even higher than the brilliant freshman crew of two years ago (Evans, Ettinger, Niblo, and company). However, here is the sad note. Even should varsity ball continue to be played next fall, it is highly improbable in these days of uncertainty that more than a handful of the frosh will return next year. The services and war employment are expected to be heavy drains on football material. So perhaps John Dewell, Bud French, and the other scintillating freshmen will never see action in a varsity uniform.

Sollenberger And Miller In Charge Of Frosh Practice
The freshman basketball squad is working out on Mondays and Wednesdays from 7 p.m. until 9 p.m. under two of last year's varsity members, Marvin Sollenberger and Dick Miller.
Regular freshman practice sessions will begin November 2. There will then be practices every evening from Monday through Thursday. Due to the fact that they will graduate at the end of the semester, Sollenberger and Miller will not play varsity ball this year. Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, varsity coach, said Friday that they had decided to follow this plan, rather than to report the first semester and then break the routine of the squad by not reporting the second semester. Milton "Mit" Allen, freshman coach last year, is now an inspector
at the Sunflower Ordnance Works. Murray Brown, a graduate student in physical education last year, would have been freshman coach this year if he had not accepted a coaching position at the Topeka High School.

Dewey "Snorter" Luster's coaching methods are characterized by the same aggressive methods he displayed when holding down left end post on the University of Oklahoma squad he now coaches.
Luster was a regular wingman on the undefeated Sooner squad of 1920. Weighing only 135 pounds, he was known as one of the most ferocious tacklers in the tough Missouri Valley conference. In 1940 he was guest coach of the New York Giants professional
Bennie Owen, then coach of the Sooners, gave Luster his nickname of "Snorter" because the wiry little end, who dropped back to the safety position on fourth downs, snorted like a boxer while returning punts

The freshmen are to continue wearing the caps until after the homecoming football game with Nebraska, Oct. 31. The caps are also to be worn by freshmen attending the home football games.
Pierce Is Star In Frosh Game
Fiery Bob Pierce, formerly of Northeast in Kansas City, was the big show of the freshman intra-squad game Friday afternoon.
Pierce, quarterbacking the Whites, did everything but carry water as his squad defeated the Reds 6 to 0. Fighting his way through holes in the line, he was a threat throughout the game. Although his passing was erratic, he connected with two for long gains.
Bud French, from Central in Kansas City, scored the game's only touchdown when he swept around end, after Pierce had faked a line buck, and ran unmolested 30 yards to pay dirt.
Standing out in the Red's backfield was Wayne Silivus, last year with Paseo in Kansas City. Silvius rolled up most of the Red's yardage on wide end sweeps.
Taylor Brady, from Kansas City's Southwest, was a power in the line. Also starring was another Southwest product, Charles Keller.
Joe Gray, end from Pittsburg, was on the receiving end of Pierce's longest pass.
The game produced three casualties. Lou Henderson suffered a broken nose. On the opening kickoff Bill "Big Stoop" Jamison suffered a knee injury. This injury was not serious enough to keep Jamison out of action long. Aaron Wilson, injured in the earlier stages of the game, returned to the lineup before the final whistle blew.

Shenk Had Fine Record At Junction City High
BY JACK MOORE
Henry Shenk, football and track mentor of Junction City for eleven years, is starting his first full year as head of the University intramural program. He replaced Dr. Ed Elbel, who had been on the physical education staff for thirteen years before entering the Second Technical Division of the Air Force located at St. Louis last winter. Captain Elbel, as he now is ranked, is in charge of the division's physical training program.
Elibel's successor is well known among Central Kansas and North Central Kansas League schools for the championship football, track, and basketball teams which he has placed against them. His football teams won four league championships, including a streak of 22 successive victories. He was equally successful in the direction of his school's track teams. All of his teams were known for their numerous and speedy colored athletes.
In addition to the heavy intra- mural schedule he must direct, Shenk will have charge of practice
Shenk was formerly president of the State High School Coaches association.

TCU DEFEATS--standing up. Montgomery's kick for the extra point went wide.
The accused woman entered the house recently on the pretext of coming in out of the rain. A short time after she left, the housemother, Mrs. C. A. Thomas, became suspicious of the woman's actions and sent several fraternity men out to look for her. Bill Blaunt and John Herron finally found her, with a fountain pen, which they said belonged to one of the men, in her possession.
Investigation revealed that the accused had entered the Gamma Phi Beta house and Miller hall on the same day, and according to police, has been arrested previously on charges of theft.
(continued from page one) erful TCU squad displayed a bevy of competent backs, with first one, and then another, of the fleet Frogs sparking the winners' attack. Emery Nix, Dean Bagley, John Bond, Charles Conway, Van Hall, Beecher Montgomery, and several other Frog backs all had their hands in the TCU triumph.
The great majority of the Frog touchdowns came by the land route. However, time and time again aerials by Nix and Eagley played major parts in moving Meyer's charges into scoring territory. Tricky lateral plays were also effective for the winners.
The Horned Frogs opened up the first half by driving to a touchdown in six plays. A lateral, from Nix to Bond, put the ball on the Kansas 25 yard line, after which the irrepressible Nix again dropped back and this time lobbed a lateral to Porter who moved on the Jayhawk 14. Nix plunged twice to put the ball on the Kansas 6-yard line, and from there Hall went over on a reverse to the right side. Patton kicked the extra point.
Kansas, on the defensive throughout most of the game, once again failed to show a concerted running game. Only against Frog reserves was the Jayhawk offense really effective at any time, as the Kansas squad continued on the road to one of its most disastrous seasons in recent Kansas football history.
Laterals Work
Later in the same period a TCU drive pushed to the Kansas 14-yard line. Montgomery then dropped back to pass, but found no receivers open. He proceeded to tuck the ball under his arm and race around left end for the third TCU touchdown. O'Neal for the second time converted.
TCU came back strong in the third quarter to score two more touchdowns. A double lateral from Montgomery to Hall to Patton advanced the ball from midfield to the Kansas 18-yard line. Montgomery moved to the 15-yard marker around right end, and Conway then skirted the other flank to score
Twice again the Texas squad drove to touchdown territory in the second quarter. A fumble of the center's snapback got the Kansas team in hot water early in the period. The Frogs took over on the Kansas 8-yard line, and Conway scored on a tricky reverse around left end. O'Neal converted.
Later in the period little Dean Bagley dropped back from the Jay-hawk 48-yard line to pitch a perfect pass into the waiting arms of Hearne. Hearne then scampered across the goal-line for the fifth Frog tally. Smith's kick for the extra point was good.
Ends Take Beating
In the final period the Frogs substituted frequently, and the Jayhawks held the TCU reserves to a

single touchdown, while striking paydirt themselves for the first time this year.
The Kansas team for the fourth straight game was far from impressive, and was from the first completely outclassed. The Jayhawks had nothing to match against the diversified Horned Frog attack, and at no time were in the ball game.
The big Texas line, featuring the play of Derrell Palmer, one of the Southwest's top tackles, outcharged the Jayhawk front wall all the way. Kansas ends, in particular, took a beating, as Frog blockers time and time again rode them out of the way, as teammates then skirted around the flanks for long gains.

University Women Act as Hostesses To Navy Trainees
Helen Buhler, Mgr.
The first dance for service men at which University women served as hostesses was held last night in the Community building with approximately 30 University women participating. Only those women whose parents had entered their approval at the Adviser of Women's office were eligible to act as hostesses.
A special feature of last night's dance was a "hot dog feed" provided by the Lawrence Cooperative Club. Heading the committees for the Cooperative Club was Junius Underwood. Assisting him as hosts and hostesses were Mr. and Mrs. Armin Woestemeyer, Mr. and Mrs. Irwin Hartley, and Mr. and Mrs. Homer Allison. Members of the Junior Hostess League, comprised of Lawrence and University women, served as junior hostesses.
Dances sponsored by different organizations have been given each Saturday since July and will continue while service men are stationed in Lawrence.

Commentary by the KANSAN Editorials * Features * Patter
Bravery Through Fear
Many stories of the fanatic fearlessness of the Japanese soldier have come out of the warplagued Orient, most of them attributing such bravery to Shintoism.
One of the prime doctrines of the Shinto religion is that it is honorable, even heroic, to die for the Son of the Rising Sun. The Japanese are taught that giving one's life in battle for the Emperor is a mandate to the hereafter.
But out of the Solomon Islands battle comes another picture of Japanese "bravery." F. Tillman Durdin, New York Times correspondent, recently wrote from Guadalcanal:
"The Japanese in the Guadalcanal-Tulagi area are fighting apparently with the conviction that if captured by American marines, they will be killed. Relatively few military prisoners have been taken; Japanese fighting men usually have preferred death in battle to surrender."
Rather than be taken prisoner, relates Durdin, many Nipponese fighters, hopelessly trapped and out of ammunition have committed suicide with their last bullet. Others, wounded and facing capture, have exploded hand grenades against their stomachs. How brave is the Japanese fighting man!
Hunger, thirst, and fatigue have come to the aid of our fighting marines in taking some prisoners in the Solomon theater of war. At the height of Tenaru battle, one Jap threw down his rifle, advanced toward American lines; the marines stopped firing to let him through their lines. He was so hungry and thirsty he couldn't carry on.
Even at grave risk to their own lives. American marines endeavor to take prisoners. There is always the peril that a wounded Japanese will roll over and start firing, or sling a grenade at his would-be captors.
Antithetical to the belief that capture by the Americans means death, our prisoners not only are accorded decent treatment in compliance to rules of international law but in some cases treatment superior to that received as soldiers in their own army.
Wounded prisoners receive the finest of medical care. All are given regular marine rations (better than anything the Jap army could offer) plus rice and other items of Japanese food captured in battle.
Many prisoners have indicated that they are thoroughly satisfied with their treatment and that their living conditions in captivity are better than in the Japanese army.
War lords of the Rising Sun have instilled a pseudo-bravado, in realtiy a fear of fear, in their soldiers. Japanese heroism is nothing more than a struggle for self survival. The bravery of the American soldier transcends this attitude; our men aren't fighting merely for their lives but for the American way of life.
Dakar Again
Dakar, that small Vichy French stronghold on the west coast of Africa, may once more become a familiar word on the front page of American newspapers. Its importance in the military scheme of things has long been realized by Allied forces, and the time for a campaign against it seems imminent.
0
England has succeeded in dominating east
Just Wondering
It would appear that the gasoline rationing program is going to put this nation back on its feet in more ways than one.
Africa militarily, but the Vichy French control of northwest Africa is a constant threat. Dakar, lying on the coast, is the logical place against which to launch an offensive, for it would serve as an excellent loading port for Axis movements against South America. It also lies a short distance from Bathurst, an English possession, headquartes of the South American air route.
Dakar is comparatively isolated, has few railroad inlets and is not unusually well defended. It is apparent that the Axis powers fended. tI is apparent that the Axis powers are aware of an impending Allied move and are offering aid to the French colony in defense against a possible enemy victory there.
Upon the ability of the Allies to launch an offensive depends the security of South America from invasion.

Rock Chalk Talk
No fooling, it really happened . . .
DEAN SIMS
Vic Harwood, Kappa Sig pledge, was riding down the campus last week, when he passed a brother Kappa Sig. Desiring to lend a helping hand, Harwood stopped and asked his brother's destination.
I'm going to get Margaret Hall," was the answer.
I'm going to get Margaret Hall, who was the author of The "get" must have slipped past Harwood. "Climb in," answered Harwood, and started gaily down the campus. Harwood, not knowing the campus too well as yet, began to become confused. "Say," he said, "Here's Bailey Chem building, and right down there is Watkins Hall. But where in the devil is Margaret Hall?"
*****
The Phi Fsi's have lately been annoyed by unusual sounds which disrupted their quiet hours. In the middle of the study period at night, the actives would be startled to hear a cow mooing in the vicinity. So the governing committee, in order to get to the bottom of the disturbance, call in suspects.
The suspects were Hayworth White and AI Evans. The committee sat around in dark coats and dark glasses and hats pulled low over their eyes and flashed strong lights on their victims. Joe Payne, acting as the chief of the third degree, grilled the suspects. When he threatened Evans with a rubber hose, Evans finally turned stool pigeon.
It seems that Evans, White, and Tom Cadden had purchased some "moo" boxes, which can be purchased at any dime store. Further investigation disclosed that Cadden had a large number of "moo" boxes and mechanical crickets in his desk drawer.
Now that the culprits have been found, quiet reigns again.
*****
A mild panic was created when the Chi Omega's and the Phi Psi's practically blocked traffic taking poor old Persephone down the campus Friday to dump her on the scrap heap. During the time the Chi O's were posing in front of the car for a picture, a passing sailor was heard to remark, "Does all that go with it, too?" One fellow, in back, remembering his draft number coming up soon, sadly remarked, "In time, my friend, in time."
Snow's Work Lives On... Entomology Collection Is Largest in Existence
From a mere 500 specimens collected by students in 1870, the Snow entomological collection at the University has grown to contain more than two million specimens and is now considered the outstanding collection of its kind in the world.
The huge collection is housed in one room in Snow hall, and is made up of over 1000 cases, some of which hold 3000 specimens each. This collection is primarily North American but does have specimens from other parts of the world. New insects are being added at the
sects are being added at the rate of about 50,000 a year and only last year'a near record "catch" of 75,000 insects was added.
Francis Huntington Snow, who started the collection, came to the University before the first building was completed and was one of the first three professors to teach at the new University. Snow came as a professor of mathematics and natural sciences but because of his interest and ability in the natural sciences was made a professor in the entomology department where he was able to work with insects on a full-time scale. Field Trip to Colorado
In 1872 several students at the University under the direction of Dr. Snow collected, mounted and donated 800 specimens of Kansas insects to the infant collection. A few years later five graduating members of the entomology department planned a collecting trip to Colorado and invited Professor Snow to accompany them. This was Professor Snow's first collecting trip outside the vicinity of Lawrence. About 1877 Professor Snow and two of his students went to Wallace county, Kansas, and collected 1500 specimens of the then rare
tiger beetle. (Amblychila cylindriformis) This trip was significant in that it added new species to the fast growing collection and also reduced the market price of the tiger beetle from $15 to $1.
By 1878 Snow's collection totaled 500 species and was becoming more and more important to the agricultural and horticultural interests of the state. Through the untiring work of Snow and his assistants and through various donations by naturalists who were interested in seeing the collection grow, over 10,000 species were collected in the early 1880's.
When in 1890 Snow became Chancellor of the University, he had the freedom to work with and collect insects, and from the time he was appointed Chancellor to the time of his death in 1908, many valuable additions were made to the collection. In 1908, by act of the Board of Regents, the collection was called the Francis Huntington Snow entomological collection. After Dr. Snow's death the collection was forgotten for lack of someone to take interest in it; consequently, no significant additions were made for several years.

Letters to the Editor
EDITOR'S NOTE: The University Daily Kansan welcomes letters from readers. These letters should not be more than 200 words in length, and must be signed with the name of the contributor. The editor reserves the right to edit all letters to conform to style requirements.
I wish to express my appreciation to the University Daily Kansan for the opportunity to thank its readers for the numerous invitations from University organizations and individuals extended to the men under training at the machinists' mates school.
Due to the strenuous program of training having been undertaken by the trainees of this school, it is believed that any absence from their station during week days would tend to jeopardize their chances of advancement to the rating for which they are studying.
Assurance is given that the only reason for not granting permission for the men under this command to accept the many splendid invitations is that the exigencies of the service do not permit leave to be granted except on Saturday and Sunday.
Flyin' High
Hill Women
On Air Jaunts
★
Just in case the routine of college becomes monotonous, Miss Ruth Oreault, associate professor of piano, and Doris Sheppard, college sophomore from Larned, can "get away from it all" by a spin above the clouds—no bulletin boards to remind them of classes and meetings; no shrill whistle to blast into their dreamiest meditations; no danger of little green tickets for over-parking.
Last week the two traveled the airways of several states in a flight across Kansas and Missouri to St. Louis and from there into Illinois and back to Lawrence.
Thus far, the trips have been taken in a plane owned jointly by Miss Oreutt and a partner in Wichita. Miss Sheppard plans to have her plane brought from Larned when Miss Oreutt's plane is taken to Wichita next week.
Miss Sheppard received her basic and flight training in Larned, starting when she was a senior in the high school there. Miss Orcutt received her training in Lawrence. Both women have been active members of the Civil Air Patrol since it began here last year. CAP is a local branch of the Civilian Defense program.
Miss Sheppard and Miss Orcutt are limited by their college work in the amount of time they are able spend in the air, but in the future they hope to devote as much of their time as possible to flying.

Tickets for the banquet may be purchased at Henley House or the YMCA office. A request has been made that all reservations for the banquet be made by Monday evening.
Debate Teams Argue On World Federation
Freshman and varsity debate teams will argue the subject, "Resolved: That the peoples of the several nations should establish an international federation," when they meet for tryouts in Green hall, Oct 20.
Students interested in trying out should prepare a five minute constructive speech on one point of the subject, Prof. E. C. Buehler of the speech department, said.
Saturday Art Classes Start For Lawrence Children
Saturday morning art classes started yesterday for Lawrence school children. Miss Maud Ellsworth, instructor in the education department, announced. The teacher will be Dorothy McGinnis, a senior in art education at the University.
Classes in clay modeling as well as museum art classes, will be held from 10 to 12 a.m. every Saturday. The classes are under the supervision of the art education department of the city schools with the co-operation of museum curators.
Sailors Help In Harvest Fields
Sixty-eight men from the U S Naval Training School for machinists mates were on farms yesterday picking pears, pitching hay, and husking corn. A few farmers came to the station for helpers Friday night but the majority left Saturday morning.
Realizing the serious need for farm help, the trainees asked their superior officers for permission to go to the farmers' aid and the permission was granted for each weekend from Friday evening to 9 p.m. Sunday until the harvest season is over.
A group was taken to Ottawa and the rest are helping within a twelve-mile radius of Lawrence.
Raymond Stuhl Goes To Army Air Force Base in New Mexico
Raymond Stuhl, cello instructor in the School of Fine Arts, left yesterday for Las Vegas, N. M., to enlist in the Army Air Force. He will be cellist in a musical unit of the air force.
D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, said that arrangements were being made to abtain a faculty member to replace Mr. Stubl as instructor in cello, string ensemble work and sight singing.
The new member will also serve as cellist in the University string quartet a position occupied by Mr Stuhl for the past nine years.
Swarthout added that the string quartet would continue appearing in programs throughout the year, and that it would take the concert tour through Texas this December as scheduled.
Mrs. Stuhl will remain in Lawrence according to present plans.
Dramatic Students at Wayne University have cooperated in the development of plays on war themes for community audiences.
Clark Gable and Lana Turner Are Together Again at the Jayhawker
ALFRED HUNTER
Clark Gable and Lana Turner, after their smosh success in "Honky Tonk," are together again in M-G-M's "Somewhere I'll Find You," an exciting story of war correspondents in the Far East. "Somewhere I'll Find You" opens a 5 day engagement today at the Jayhawker.
The Independent Student Association will sponsor an hour dance Tuesday night, Oct. 20, in Robinson gymnasium. Although the ISA is sponsoring the affair, it is an all-student party.
Admission will be twenty-five cents a person, with all the proceeds going to buy U. S. war bonds. The war bonds will then go into an ISA scholarship fund to be used to the advantage of undergraduate students who go into the armed forces and then return to continue their education here after the war.
SNOW COLLECTION---species, both male and female, and it is to these cards that men in the entomology department refer to classify their insects. If a new species is found, the person who collected it names it according to certain standards set up by the entomology society and then the description and name of the new species is published in some scientific magazine. As soon as the specimen is definitely determined and classified it is published in the official Zoo Record where all new specimens are recorded by name. Hereafter that specimen is known by the name and description it carries in Zoo Record.
(continued from page six)
H. Beamer, assistant curator of the collection and Professor H. B. Hungerford, head of the entomology department, the Snow collection is growing at the rate of approximately 50,000 specimens annually.
10.000 Mile Collecting Trip
In the summer of 1942 Dr. Beamer, Mrs. Beamer, and three students of entomology made a 10,000 mile collecting trip into the southwestern part of the United States and after ten weeks work brought back thousands of new specimens to be added to the collection. A new species of the locus (cicada) was caught in Arizona, a new species of the black kabupper was found in Flagstaff, near the desert regions of Arizona. Because the collection is growing so fast and because of the difficulty of getting specimens classified at present, it will be several years before this new species of fly is named and correctly classified.

Today thousands of new and unclassified specimens are waiting in the laboratories of Snow hall to be grouped and then sent to specialists for classification. Facilities are somewhat overtaxed at present but the men working on the collection have a genuine interest in their work, as did Dr. Snow before them, and under these men the collection is growing daily in size and importance to the agricultural and horticultural interests of the state and the entire country.

Commentary by the KANSAN Editorials * Features * Patter
Bravery Through Fear
Many stories of the fanatic fearlessness of the Japanese soldier have come out of the warplagued Orient, most of them attributing such bravery to Shintoism.
One of the prime doctrines of the Shinto religion is that it is honorable, even heroic, to die for the Son of the Rising Sun. The Japanese are taught that giving one's life in battle for the Emperor is a mandate to the hereafter.
But out of the Solomon Islands battle comes another picture of Japanese "bravery." F. Tillman Durdin, New York Times correspondent, recently wrote from Guadalcanal:
"The Japanese in the Guadalcanal-Tulagi area are fighting apparently with the conviction that if captured by American marines, they will be killed. Relatively few military prisoners have been taken; Japanese fighting men usually have preferred death in battle to surrender."
Rather than be taken prisoner, relates Durdin, many Nipponese fighters, hopelessly trapped and out of ammunition have committed suicide with their last bullet. Others, wounded and facing capture, have exploded hand grenades against their stomachs. How brave is the Japanese fighting man!
Hunger, thirst, and fatigue have come to the aid of our fighting marines in taking some prisoners in the Solomon theater of war. At the height of tenaru battle, one Jap threw down his rifle, advanced toward American lines; the marines stopped firing to let him through their lines. He was so hungry and thirsty he couldn't carry on.
Even at grave risk to their own lives, American marines endeavor to take prisoners. There is always the peril that a wounded Japanese will roll over and start firing, or sling a grenade at his would-be captors.
Antithetical to the belief that capture by the Americans means death, our prisoners not only are accorded decent treatment in compliance to rules of international law but in some cases treatment superior to that received as soldiers in their own army.
Wounded prisoners receive the finest of medical care. All are given regular marine rations (better than anything the Jap army could offer) plus rice and other items of Japanese food captured in battle.
Many prisoners have indicated that they are thoroughly satisfied with their treatment and that their living conditions in captivity are better than in the Japanese army.
War lords of the Rising Sun have instilled a pseudo-bravado, in realtiy a fear of fear, in their soldiers. Japanese heroism is nothing more than a struggle for self survival. The bravery of the American soldier transcends this attitude; our men aren't fighting merely for their lives but for the American way of life.
Dakar Again
Dakar, that small Vichy French stronghold on the west coast of Africa, may once more become a familiar word on the front page of American newspapers. Its importance in the military scheme of things has long been realized by Allied forces, and the time for a campaign against it seems imminent.
England has succeeded in dominating east
Just Wondering
It would appear that the gasoline rationing program is going to put this nation back on its feet in more ways than one.
Africa militarily, but the Vichy French control of northwest Africa is a constant threat. Dakar, lying on the coast, is the logical place against which to launch an offensive, for it would serve as an excellent loading port for Axis movements against South America. It also lies a short distance from Bathurst, an English possession, headquartes of the South American air route.
Dakar is comparatively isolated, has few railroad inlets and is not unusually well defended. It is apparent that the Axis powers fended. tI is apparent that the Axis powers are aware of an impending Allied move and are offering aid to the French colony in defense against a possible enemy victory there.
Upon the ability of the Allies to launch an offensive depends the security of South America from invasion.

During the time the Chi O's were posing in front of the car for a picture, a passing sailor was heard to remark, "Does all that go with it, too?"

Snow's Work Lives On... Entomology Collection Is Largest in Existence
From a mere 500 specimens collected by students in 1870, the Snow entomological collection at the University has grown to contain more than two million specimens and is now considered the outstanding collection of its kind in the world.
The huge collection is housed in one room in Snow hall, and is made up of over 1000 cases, some of which hold 3000 specimens each. This collection is primarily North American but does have specimens from other parts of the world. New insects are being added at the $ \textcircled{2} $
rate of about 50,000 a year and only last year'a near record "catch" of 75,000 insects was added.
Francis Huntington Snow, who started the collection, came to the University before the first building was completed and was one of the first three professors to teach at the new University. Snow came as a professor of mathematics and natural sciences but because of his interest and ability in the natural sciences was made a professor in the entomology department where he was able to work with insects on a full-time scale. Field Trip to Colorado
In 1872 several students at the University under the direction of Dr. Snow collected, mounted and donated 800 specimens of Kansas insects to the infant collection. A few years later five graduating members of the entomology department planned a collecting trip to Colorado and invited Professor Snow to accompany them. This was Professor Snow's first collecting trip outside the vicinity of Lawrence. About 1877 Professor Snow and two of his students went to Wallace county, Kansas, and collected 1500 specimens of the then rare
tiger beetle. (Amblychila cylindri-formis) This trip was significant in that it added new species to the fast growing collection and also reduced the market price of the tiger beetle from $15 to $1.
By 1878 Snow's collection totaled 500 species and was becoming more and more important to the agricultural and horticultural interests of the state. Through the uniting work of Snow and his assistants and through various donations by naturalists who were interested in seeing the collection grow, over 10,000 species were collected in the early 1880s.
When in 1890 Snow became Chancellor of the University, he had the freedom to work with and collect insects, and from the time he was appointed Chancellor to the time of his death in 1908, many valuable additions were made to the collection. In 1908, by act of the Board of Regents, the collection was called the Francis Huntington Snow entomological collection. After Dr. Snow's death the collection was forgotten for lack of someone to take interest in it; consequently, no significant additions were made for several years.

Flyin' High Hill Women On Air Jaunts
Just in case the routine of college becomes monotonous, Miss Ruth Curtuit, associate professor of piano, and Doris Sheppard, college sophomore from Larned, can "get away from it all" by a spin above the clouds—no bulletin boards to remind them of classes and meetings; no shrill whistle to blast into their dreamiest meditations; no danger of little green tickets for over-parking.
Last week the two traveled the airways of several states in a flight across Kansas and Missouri to St. Louis and from there into Illinois and back to Lawrence.
Thus far, the trips have been taken in a plane owned jointly by Miss Orcutt and a partner in Wichita. Miss Sheppard plans to have her plane brought from Larned when Miss Orcutt's plane is taken to Wichita next week.
Miss Sheppard received her basic and flight training in Larned, starting when she was a senior in the high school there. Miss Orcutt received her training in Lawrence.

The Independent Student Association will sponsor an hour dance Tuesday night, Oct. 20, in Robinson gymnasium. Although the ISA is sponsoring the affair, it is an all-student party.
Clark Gable and Lana Turner, after their smash success in "Honky Tonk," are together again in M-G-M's "Somewhere I'll Find You," an exciting story of war correspondents in the Far East. "Somewhere I'll Find You" opens a 5 day engagement today at the Jayhawker.
SINNIE'S HOT TEN
Admission will be twenty-five cents a person, with all the proceeds going to buy U. S. war bonds. The war bonds will then go into an ISA scholarship fund to be used to the advantage of undergraduate students who go into the armed forces and then return to continue their education here after the war.
SNOW COLLECTION---species, both male and female, and it is to these cards that men in the entomology department refer to classify their insects. If a new species is found, the person who collected it names it according to certain standards set up by the entomology society and then the description and name of the new species is published in some scientific magazine. As soon as the specimen is definitely determined and classified it is published in the official Zoo Record where all new specimens are recorded by name. Hereafter that specimen is known by the name and description it carries in Zoo Record.
(continued from page aix)
H. Beamer, assistant curator of the collection and Professor H. B. Hungerford, head of the entomology department, the Snow collection is growing at the rate of approximately 50,000 specimens annually.
10,000 Mile Collecting Trip
In the summer of 1942 Dr. Beamer, Mrs. Beamer, and three students of entomology made a 10,000 mile collecting trip into the southwestern part of the United States and after ten weeks work brought back thousands of new specimens to be added to the collection. A new species of the locus (cicada) was caught in Arizona, a new species of the black leafhopper was found in Flagstaff, near the desert regions of Arizona. Because the collection is growing so fast and because of the difficulty of getting specimens classified at present, it will be several years before this new species of fly is named and correctly classified.

Today thousands of new and unclassified specimens are waiting in the laboratories of Snow hall to be grouped and then sent to specialists for classification. Facilities are somewhat overtaxed at present but the men working on the collection have a genuine interest in their work, as did Dr. Snow before them, and under these men the collection is growing daily in size and importance to the agricultural and horticultural interests of the state and the entire country.

North Oval Gets a Name
The North Oval, at the University of Oklahoma, after 40 years, has acquired a name. The central area of the campus was christened the Vernon Parrington oval in memory of its designer, the late Vernon Louis Parrington, by the board of regents, acting upon the suggestion of President Brandt.
Parrington was a member of the faculty early in the century and was the first director of organized athletics on the campus, as well as the faculty member in charge of the semi-monthly college publication, The University Umpire.
"Food-For-Cost" at Carolina
An estimated 760 students are expected to take advantage of the University of North Carolina's "food-for-cost" plan in the newly installed cafeteria lines. The prices charged for meals represent the lowest possible prices at which the University can carry out its non-profit plan. Prices are subject to increases if food or labor costs rise too high.
The hall is expected to relieve the acute eating problem in town. It will seat 534 students.
Students to Go to Saskatchewan

Under Walters' direction, the Star—Journal eliminated its last competitor in May, 1941, when it absorbed the Times and the Tribune.
Of Walters, Time said: "He got his start as editor of an AEF newspaper in Italy with Adolphe Menjou and Robert Maynard Hutchins, now president of the University of Chicago."
"Mr. Walters is a newspaper man's newspaper man," says Prof. Elmer F. Beth. "He is a lively and able speaker, a man of ideas that really work, and one of the most successful working newspaper executives in the country. I think Kansas editors will agree with us that 'Stuffy' Walters is a man worth going miles to hear."

Ford To Noble End
The red and yellow Ford, painted in the sorority colors, is elaborately decorated with signs. "Scrap the Japs," "Tokyo or bust," the sorority letters, are all dabbed on in white paint, while on the rear of the car, in a conspicuous place, is the sign, "The Noble End."
Last year seven members of the sorority bought the car, and, after a year of use, decided that Persephone should be sacrificed for the war effort. Donna Burkhead, Margaret Kreider, Gloria Brinkman, Virginia Britton, Nadine Fox, Martha Nearing and Bette Cobb were the proud owners who drafted the car into the war effort.
Governors Lay Wager
The Governor of Kansas and the Governor of Nebraska have wagered a $25 war bond, to be auctioned off at the Kansas-Nebraska game Oct. 31, that their state will collect the greatest amount of scrap. There is always a chance that Kansas might not win the football game from Nebraska; but the next best victory would be that of the $25 war bond.

Student Loan Service Open; $27,000 Total
NUMBER 15
Henry Werner, adviser of men, reports that an estimated total of 148 summer school students come within the needs, and a further installment is expected for students entering the accelerated program since summer school. The preliminary loan applies only to those students who were enrolled in the 1942 session of summer school.
A $27,500 preliminary installment has been issued the University by the government for loans to students participating in the accelerated school program. This is in accordance with the Labor Federal Security Appropriation Act of 1943, which was approved July 2, 1942.
Scholarship Requirements Set
Loans from government funds can be made only to full-time students enrolled in an approved accelerated program who, in the judgment of the institution, can complete their technical and professional education within two years after the first loan. Borrowers must also attain and continue to maintain standards of scholarship ordinarily accepted as satisfactory by the institution in which they are enrolled.
In addition to these qualifications, prospective borrowers must be found by the institution to be in need of assistance, and must agree in writing to engage, for the duration of the (continued to page eight)

Cat in Danger
A black feline Topekan, intended mascot for the machinists mates in Frank Strong hall. is in danger of becoming the property of the anatomy class, if no one will offer his house as a refuge.
So far the kitten has been turned from the decks of the sailors' ship and the steps of Wager hall. Such an outcome of their plans was not predicted when a woman resident of Wager hall and the sailor, who was being entertained in the student's home in Topeka, decided to bring the kitten back to Lawrence. Plans had been worked out to take care of the feeding problem. Milk and cream would be smuggled to the kitten.
The kitten problem was simple until the two arrived in Lawrence. The officers told the mate, "No, no mascot." The housemother told the student, "No, no cat."

Marvin Goebel, former secretary of the men's student employment bureau, is now serving in the Army Air Corps at Kearns, Utah.
In a letter to Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary, Goebel reported that his camp is six miles south of Salt Lake City, but that it is so new it is yet unnamed.

Veteran Writers Join Jayhawker
Several veteran writers of last year's Jayhawker will again write for the yearbook this year. Spencer Burtis, editor of the Jayhawker, reported the return of such old-timers as Carl Bell, John Conard, Dean Ostrum, Jill Peck, and Joy Miller.
The first issue of the Jayhawker which will be issued Oct. 28, will contain among other things an anonymous satire on the University's new physical condition program. A parody by Stan Kreider on the old fable, "The Tortoise and the Hare" is also scheduled to appear. Dean Sims will have an article entitled "The Jayhawker Goes Social" along with an account of Jan Savitt and the Freshman Frolic.
Only Two Have It Muscle Course
Burtis will introduce his social column, "When Day is Done." This section will contain such items as what various students are doing socially, where they are going, and who they are seen with. A section of this social column will be published in each issue.
Sophomores in the School of Medicine have completed a survey of all the medical schools in the country to find that, according to the 35 replies received, only two schools have a program of physical conditioning comparable to the program offered to medical students here.
Questionnaires were sent to each of the 60 schools of medicine approved by the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Paleontologist at Home With Fossils in Dyche
A graduate of the University in 1896, a member of the staff in Field museum in Chicago, and an organizer of two expeditions to South America, is now back on the Hill, working on his hobby and making himself at home in Dyche museum.
Dr. Elmer S. Riggs should have no difficulty in recognizing the fossil exhibits in the basement of Dyche, since he helped in collecting part of the present collection.
In 1894, while studying under Professor S. W. Williston, professor of paleontology and anatomy, Dr. Riggs, in a party of six, accompanied Prof. Williston to the Bad Lands of South Dakota. The party camped beside a muddy pool of water, and then started out to collect fossils. Suddenly a violent hail storm swept across the country, blowing down the tent, upsetting the cooking utensils, and scattering the equipment over the Bad Lands. In order to have drinking water, the party had to dig holes in the sand.
The expedition ended successfully, however, and a number of valuable fossils were found. Dyche museum now has a skull of a giant pig, a great horned Titanothere, an animal related to the Rhinoceros, and a large sabre-toothed tiger as a result of this trip.
Former Students on Trip
Two former students on the trip were: Prof. E. C. Case, now director of the Museum of Paleontology in Michigan, and Dr. Barnum Brown, who is curator of fossils of reptiles in the American Museum of Natural History in New York.
In 1895, Dr. Riggs again went West in search of fossils, and found the first of a certain type of cat's skull. He classified the skull and described the anatomical structure in an article published in the University Quarterly. During the same trip, the skull of a horned-dinosaur was unearthed. This skull is the only one in the museum.
Worked in Old Snow Hall
After graduating from the University in 1896, Dr. Riggs worked in old Snow hall, and then received a fellowship from Princeton. From there, he went to the Field museum in Chicago where he remained as a staff member for 44 years.
"The biggest piece of work I ever did," Dr. Riggs said, "was to conduct two expeditions to South America." In 1922 and 1927, the expedition searched for fossils in Argentina and Bolivia. Now one of the finest collections from Argentina is at the Field museum.
"During the winter months we planned our work so we could be conveniently located close to a resort," he gave as a last remark.
DRUMMER PHIL----
(continued from page six)
he would join the band again if he could.
When the orchestra heard this, they quickly made the necessary financial arrangements so that Phil would stay. Therefore, Phil Cato remains well established in the band.
Phil is a quiet, personable fellow, who plays the drums in a way that inspires the uninspired. He doesn't resort to facial contortions, head waving, and wild mannersis to get his drumming across, it isn't necessary. Featured in the piece, "A Man and His Drums," Phil says he "does get wild every now and then."
Kuersteiner Leaves For Mother's Rites
Karl O. Kuersteiner was called Sunday to Louisville, by the death of his mother, Mrs. Harriett Kuersteiner. In his absence the following changes will be made.
A guest conductor will meet with the symphony orchestra, the conducting class will be dismissed, and private lessons will not be resumed until Thursday, when the instructor expects to return.
The faculty recital scheduled for Oct. 19 in which Mr. Kuersteiner was to have appeared with Miss Irene Peabody will be postponed until later this fall. As yet no program has been substituted.
The studio recital of Mr. Kuersteiner's pupils of string instruments was given as scheduled Monday in room 125, Frank Strong hall. Miss Ruth Orcutt substituted for Mr. Kuersteiner and introduced the numbers.
The University medical alumni met at the Hotel President in Kansas City Saturday night and elected the following officers:
K. U. Medical Alumni Elect New Officers
Dr. Carl Ferris, president; Dr. Rial Oglevie, vice-president; and Dr. Galen Tice, secretary-treasurer. The retiring president is Dr. J. W. Grauerholz, of Kansas City, Mo.
Dr. H. R. Wahl, dean of the University Medical School in Kansas City, Kansas, urged members of the association to encourage more women in their home towns to enter training as nurses. Business and war industry have attracted many young women, he said, and the enrollments of nursing schools have suffered at a time when new nurses are unprecedented.
He noted that the University nursing school enrolled only 24 girls of a quota of 30 for its entering class this year, and said many other institutions over the country had encountered even greater disinterest.
E. W. Miller, editor of the Olathe Mirror, also spoke at the meeting. Fifty persons attended.
Ordnance Plant Runs Special Chem Course
Eighteen women attended the first class last night of a new chemistry course intended to fit them for work in the Sunflower Ordnance plant when it is completed. Prerequisite for the course is five hours of college chemistry.
School of Religion Sponsors Series of Relaxation Programs
Starting tomorrow and continuing every Wednesday, the School of Religion will sponsor a 20-minute program designed to provide students with the opportunity to relax and re-orient themselves from outside activities. The program, from 1 to 1:20 p.m., will be held in the Fine room of the Memorial Union building.
The program is called "The Noontide Re-creation for the Living of This Day." In order to keep the meetings informal and flexible no definite program has been planned, but the meetings will consist mainly of music and short talks.
John C. Horvath, chief chemist for Hercules Powder Company is instructor of the course. Ultimate enrollment is expected to reach 25. Classes will be held evenings on Monday through Friday, and will run for eight weeks.
NOTICE
Dr. J. Allen Reese, dean of the School of Pharmacy, has been reappointed as a member of the Committee on Educational and Membership Standards of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy, for the year 1942-43.
Jeece Remains on Committee
Jay Janes will hold their regular meeting at 4:30 tomorrow afternoon in the Pine room. Mary Kay Brown, president.
NOTICE
Christian Fellowship group which previously met in Watson library will meet in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building, Thursday noon from 1:00 to 1:20 p.m. throughout the coming semester.
If you are a Christian, you will want to be present. Everyone welcome! David Boylan, chairman.
Pattern Will Display Paintings
A showing of about 20 watercolors, oils, and lithographs done in New York by Karl Matterm, professor of drawing and painting, will be on exhibit in Spooner-Thayer museum, beginning Thursday.
Professor Mattern painted two Kansas scenes from memory. One called "Underpass" is the scene of a railroad track and bridge near a rock wall in Lawrence. "Memories of Kansas" shows a group of horses stand in a Kansas pasture. Three water colors, "Times Square, Night Up Town", and "Display Signs," show life of New York before the blackouts.
Mr. Mattern has included in his showing, a picture of Greenwich Village, where he stayed during his leave of absence, and a scene taken from Ringling Brother circus. The rest of the display will include such paintings as "Portrait of Myra", "Arlington Square, Winter", Arlington Square, Spring," and "Overlooking the Bay," which will explain New York to the untraveled person. The subjects of the pictures are not limited to New York scenes, but include two country scenes of Connecticut, as well as several figure drawings.

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
Now it seems that the Jayhawk showing was murh better Saturday than early wire releases indicated. Said one observer of the game: "For the first time I felt we had something." Evans in particular was brilliant, turning in a performance of the kind which makes all-Americans. Some scribes muttered "Shades of Jay Berwanger," as Evans, like the former Chicago University ace, looked great even on a losing team. Texas scribes have gone overboard for the Jayhawk acr. Superlative adjectives were abundant in their descriptions of Evans' play. TCU backs, and they are the best Kansas has encountered this year in the collegiate ranks, were neglected as sports writers paid tribute to Evans.
Game notes—Schnellbacher, also redhot on the defense, was Evans' favorite receiver as he took seven passes . . . Charlie Black caught three of the tosses . . . Montgomery gained 107 yards in 18 attempts for the Frogs, and completed six out of nine passes . . . Evans also outpunted his Frog rivals by three yards . . . In passing out bouquets for Jayhawk performances Saturday don't forget Warren Hodges, the big likeable Lawrence boy, who finally came through with the great game Kansas coaches have considered him capable of turning in. He was described by one observer of the game as the best tackle on the field . . . Harry Viner, former Missouri star, was the referee, and turned in an exceptionally excellent and fast officiating job . . . Evans, Sherwood, and Linquist saw action through most of the game.
For the first time this year the Jayhawks turned in the kind of a game which pleases the spectators. From start to finish they held the interest of the fans . . . The T-formation did not work so good for the Kansans. Kansas made 12 first down, TCU 18 . . . Bad center passes were mainly responsible for the negative number of yards gained by the Jayhawks from running plays . . . The usually dependable Eob Githens made one bad one in the first period when he led Altman the wrong direction, and Penny later also made a bad snapback which was costly . . . Bagley, not Montgomery, was the TCU back who impressed Kansas fullback Ed Linquist . . . Montgomery, however, appeared to be the class of the Frog backfeld men to Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary, who was in the pressbox . . . Gene Sherwood saw a lot of action, and, while he looked bad when he went to "sleep" on one pass play, on the whole turned in a creditable performance.

guard this fall for Gwyn Henry . . . From the pressbox Walt Sheridan looked like a natural center as he floated with the plays cagily while backing up the line . . . The train was very late getting into Ft. Worth, not reaching there until after 1:30. Troop trains were responsible for part of the delay . . . The train car had been hot and uncomfortable throughout the trip, and most of the Jayhawks were exhausted before they reached Ft. Worth . . . Frosty Wilson saw only a few minutes of action against TCU, but while in, he threw some blocks which made the fans gasp. Charlie Black made the block which made possible Schnellbacher's touchdown run . . . Altman did his best job of signal-calling this fall, as he mixed them
up nicely.
* * * *
The TCU ends looked particularly good . . . Kansas ends, however, ran into their old difficulty of solving reverse plays, which the Frogs relieved upon heavily . . . Evans intercepted a Frog pass in the clear for what should have been a touchdown, but tripped over Wilson's leg after leaping to snag the toss . . . Gene Roberts was in for but one play, and once again his trick knee was wrenched. The limb was first injured in his high school days . . . TCU used a double wingback plus a flanker . . . TCU tried but few line plunges . . Linquist was game captain for Kansas. There was absolutely no breeze in the stadium, and the 95 degree temperature soon fock its toll of the tired Kansas players . . . Linquist received a cut under one eye . . . Steve Karnowski, who has turned out some pretty fair intramural football and basketball teams himself for the Newman club, was back on the campus yesterday visiting. He is working for the U.S. Engineers.
Little Beecher Montgomery, 163 pounds of explosive dynamite in broken field, was one of the principal reasons for the Jayhawks downfall at Ft. Worth Saturday. Montgomery is also a passing and punting star. Relegated to the third team by coach Dutch Meyer this year, he was the outstanding Frog back on the field Saturday.

"TCU 41, Evans 6," was the way the final score of Saturday's football game was announced over the loud speaker at Ft. Worth, and the announcer wasn't so very far wrong.
The 185-pound junior back, right smack in the middle of the greatest passing conference in the country, gave fans and the opposing Frogs alike a lesson in aerial gridfare which will likely never be forgotten by the Tex-
TCU rooters, accustomed to such brilliant slingers as Sammy Baugh, Davie O'Brien, and Emery Nix could do nought but gasp as Evans, a one-man team if there ever was one, time and time again dropped back, cocked his arm, and sent a

Oklahoma Hopes To Break Scoring Ice This Saturday
Dewey "Snorter" Luster's Okla-
Dewey "Snorter" Luster's Oklahoma Sooners so far this fall have shown none of the power the Oklahoma eleven generated last fall in downing Gwinn Henry's Jayhawks 38 to 0 at Norman. So lacking in punch have the disappointing Sooners been, that they have as yet failed to cross their opponent's goalline in three games. They hope to remedy this situation, however, Saturday when they meet the Jayhawkers at Memorial Stadium.
The Sooners opened the season with a 0 to 0 tie with the Oklahoma Aggies. However, another state rival, Tulsa University, shellacked Luster's charges 23 to 0. Saturday the Sooner's dropped their second game, 7 to 0, to the Texas University Longhorns.
However, observers saw in the Sooner showing against Texas indications that the Norman outfit has one of the toughest defensive lines

Intramural Play Into Second Day
As Phi Kappa Fsi battles the Pflugerville Pflashes this afternoon in what will probably be today's outstanding struggle, the intramural touch football season goes into its second day of competition.
Others games scheduled for today are between the Sigma Phi Epsilon eleven and Kappa Sigma, Templin Hall and Theta Tau, and in the six man bracket Alpha Chi Sigma and Kappa Eta Kappa. Other six man games are between the Tennessee Club and the Ramblers, and Battenfeld Hall and the Jayhawk Co-op.
On Thursday the outstanding fray appears to be Sigma Chi and Phi Gamma Delta, the defending champions. This clash should prove to be a stellar passing duel between the 1940 all-star Larry Smith (Sigma Chi) and John Conley, big Fiji ace who received all-star recognition last year.
Other Thursday games will include the Medic Whiz Kids vs. ATO, Phi Delt vs. Pi KA, Blanks vs. Delta Chi, Hopkins vs. John Moore Co-op, and Rock Chalk Co-op vs. Triangle. The last three games are six man contests.
Under the offensive leadership of Johnny Short, Bill Mowery, and Tom Lillard, the Beta's topped the Sig Alph crew last Saturday 12-0 in a hotly contested battle. Standouts in the stubborn Sig Alph defensive stand were Schloesser, Humphrey, and Gage.
TKE stopped Delta Tau Delta Saturday 12-0 in a rather unimpressive game. Linthicum of TKE was the outstanding man on the field, shining in both receiving and passing.
Hopkin's Hall overwhelmed Triangle 19-6 in their six man bout. Jolliffe Hall forfeited their Saturday game to Delta Chi, and the remaining games were postponed.
OKLAHOMA HOPES--placements, however, consist entirely of sophomores. At the tackle posts the same situation exists, with starters Homer Simmons and Sammy Stephens being the only experienced men. Sophomore reserves, however, are talented.
(continued from page four) in the nation. Texas, regarded as one of the hardest running squads in the nation, had to resort to an aerial bombardment in the second half to cross the Oklahoma goal.
SOMEWHERE BIGGIT
Missing from last year's team are a trio of brilliant backs, Jack Jacobs, now performing brilliantly in ball, Oville Mathews, and Joe Golding. Other missing first stringers are tackles Roger
SON WRIGHT
Eason and Howard Teeter, guard George Boudreau, and center Leo Cowling. Also missing from this year's roster are five members of last year's second string, Sharpe, Smith, Andros, Harris, and Fischer. Lettermen In Service
In all, 20 1941 Sooner lettermen are now in the armed forces or employed in war industries.
The Sooner team received another severe blow when Dave Wallace, sophomore breakaway runner, was injured and lost for the season. He had been heavily counted upon to replace the graduated Golding.
Luster's starting ends have been very adequate, indeed, for there are no better wingmen in the Big Six than Dub Lamb and Jim Tyree. Replacements, however, consist entirely of sophomores. At the tackle posts the same situation exists, with starters Homer Simmons and Sammy Stephens being the only experienced men. Sophomore reserves, however, are talented.
Three lettermen and an outstanding sophomore take care of the guard positions for Luster in fine style. Clare Morford rates as one of the top guards in the Midwest, and George Gibbons and Mitch Shadid are not far behind him. C. F. Bryce is the promising rookie. Marseis Returns
Veteran Jack Marsee is holding down the center position, but other linebackers are woefully hacking.
Two fine blocking backs lead two sets of backs which Luster alternates against the opposition. The blockers are Bill Campbell and Jack Steele, both experts at clearing the way for ball-luggers. Myrle Greathouse is a promising sophomore blocker.
PETER MURRAY
Three quarterbacks have been
battling for the starting call all fall. Two seniors—J. S. Munsey and Pat Shanks — have seen the most action so far. Not to be overlooked, however, is junior Pete Cawthron, Jr., of the former Texas Tech coach.
JIM TYREE
Luster has two veteran wingbacks to carry on where Mathews left off last year. Bill Mattox, a senior, has been doing heavy duty so far this fall. Son Wright, a junior, however, has also seen considerable action. Hamm Top Passer
At fullback Huel Hamm, a vet-
eran, and junior Eddie Davis have been battling for the starting call.
Hamm is perhaps the best passer on the squad, and tips the scales at 195 pounds. Don Fauble, a sophomore, may see some service.
At first glance, it would seem to the observer that the Oklahoma team is long on backfield men and short on line power, especially in reserves. So far this fall, however, the Sooners have displayed a stout forward wall, while the backs have failed to live up to expectations. Luster is hoping Hamm, Wright, Mattox, Davis, and company find themselves Saturday against the Jayhawks, and break their scoring drouth.

Naval Students Receive Rigid Physical Training
After ten minutes of calisthenics the boys engage in such games as touch football, volleyball, boxing, horse shoes, soft ball, and Dr. Forrest C. Allen's game of Goal-Hi.
Over six hundred naval students are starting an extensive physical training program on the University of Kansas campus this week under the guidance of Chief Specialist Bain.
In answer to questions concerning possible participation in intercollegiate sports, Chief Specialist Bain pointed out that the Great Lakes Naval Training School and the Iowa Seahawks make an effort to acquire former athletes, and consequently, are able to turn out such good teams. Since that effort is not promoted at Kansas University's Naval Training school, it will not be able to engage in this advanced competition. However, Bain expressed his desire to enter teams in the University's intramural basketball program.
Tests were begun Monday to determine the physical fitness of the entrees in the Naval School. These tests include chin ups, standing broadjump, push ups, and lean backs with an average navy score of 166 as the aim.
At 5:55 a.m. all naval students take a brisk set up of exercises for fifteen minutes. Then, the large group is divided into platoons of approximately 120 men, which have a planned hour of diversified athletics.
By Jack Moore
For the new entrées a high of 424 and a low of 218 were scored in Monday's tests, while their average was 295. According to these results the new recruits are already in good physical condition, Bain said.

Alumni Round-up At K.U.-T.C.U. Game
Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary reports an attendance of about 40 alumni at the round-up Saturday in for the Kansas-Texas Christian football game. Most of the members attending were members of the North Texas Alumni Association, composed of alumni from Ft. Worth and Dallas.
At the alumni dinner, each member present introduced himself and explained his present job. Coach Vic Hurt and Gwinn Henry and Fred Ellsworth carried news of the University to the Transs.
Robert Perry, a 1936 graduate, retiring president of the Dallas-Ft. Worth Alumni Association. had charge of the reunion and dinner at the Colonial Country Club. Victor Tomilson of Ft. Worth, a grad of the School of Law in 1921, was elected president of the association. Other officers elected were Ross Forney of Dallas, a 1912 graduate, vice-president; and Dorothy Walker Neal of Dallas, a 1935 graduate, secretary.
Geology Fraternity Hears Dr. R. C. Moore
Because of their importance in national defense, geologists have been recently deferred from selective service, Dr. Raymond C. Moore, state geologist, told a group of geologists at a meeting in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building Thursday. He also spoke on the future of geologists in the war.
Among those present at the meeting were geology department personnel. members of the Sigma Gamma Epsilon honorary geology fraternity, John Fry, assistant state geologist, and some members of the U. S. Geological Survey, headed by Stan Lohmen.
Dr. Smith, assistant professor of geology showed some slides of military aerial photography, contour maps, and various geological formations of the world.
Final preparations for the freshman "Nightshirt Parade" will be made at the KuKu club meeting at 9 o'clock this evening in the men's student lounge of the Memorial Union building.
The KuKu's and the K-Club will unite this year in sponsoring the parade. The "guests of honor" will be freshmen only.

UNIVERSITY DALI. KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1942
Commentary by the KANSAN Editorials * Features * Patter
Medics Not Excused
In the criticism of the University Senate's recent shortening of the Christmas vacation period, another important decision made by that same body on the same day was completely overlooked. It was, nevertheless, of considerable importance.
The student body of the School of Medicine in Lawrence, backed by certain members of the school's faculty, had petitioned exemption from compulsory physical education.
Their petition rested on two very firm bases. First, it was pointed out, School of Medicine courses call for considerably more study than does the average University student's schedule. Anatomy, biochemistry, medical physiology, and other such required courses are among the most obstructe offered here. Physical conditioning classes cut sharply into time needed by the future doctors for studying. The average medical student is in class 35 out of 40 school clock hours a week.
Secondly, the petition pointed out, medical students will not be available for service until they have finished their course of study. That date is still two or three years in the future, and the last two years of the course of study must be taken in Kansas City, where there are no physical conditioning courses.
What good, asked the students, will one year of such conditioning do, when it will be followed by two years of comparative inactivity? A survey made by Kansas medical students revealed that 90 per cent of the other medical schools in this country do not require students to take such a course.
The University Senate denied the petition, although voting was close. Their reasons were various. Certainly, one of the biggest stumbling blocks in the way of the petitioners was the fear that such an action would seem to be the granting of a favor to a privileged group, and would antagonize the remainder of the student body.
It is doubtful, however, that students would have taken nearly the unfavorable attitude to the granting of the exemption that they did to the shortening of Christmas vacation—a move made that same day.
It is all water under the bridge now. Medical students, badly needed by the army and navy, and laboring now under a speedup program, must desert their books three times a week to jump fences and ditches. The future may tell us whether the move was a sensible one—whether the country has greater need of healthy doctors with less training, or of less healthy doctors with superior training.

Taxes next year will, according to the best estimates, absorb one-third of the nation's income. But why holler, asks the Hutchinson News; even if we had the other third, there wouldn't be anything to spend it on. That is, except more taxes.

It happened quite a while ago, but it's still sort of humorous:
At the Gamma Phi open house, a crisp young freshman to the Hill cut in on Sue Corson.
The ISA is coming up with a big deal on Tuesday, the 20th. On this date they are sponsoring an hour-dance in Robirson gym. The admission is two-bits a customer. The remarkable thing about the whole thing is that every cent of the proceeds will go into war bonds—then the war bonds will ultimately be established into a scholarship fund for men of the armed forces who want to return to school here at K.U.
The ISA even goes so far into the party that it pays out of its own pocket for the orchestra.
Just when all seemed to be getting along peacefully, the historic Theta- Phi Psi feud awakens a little.

Maurice Beardmore, freshman from Mankato and Earl Shurtz, Beloit frosh, entered the journalism shack today—looking for a place to expectorate. Earl's excuse was, he mumbled through well-filled jaws, that he was now chewing tobacco in an attempt to break himself of the smoking habit.
Always ready for something new, John Conard and Ralph Coldren tried the treatment. They suffered no ill consequences.

Drummer Phil Cato In The Groove
"He brings the house down! "Thus speak the students who have heard Phil Cato, Indian drummer with Danny Bachmann's band. Of similar opinion is Gene Krupa's telant scout, who liked Cato's playing enough to make him an offer.
With a natural talent for drums, Cato, a full-blooded Comanche Indian from Haskell, gets a hand from all who love the sound of hot downbeat. Phil is a modest, well groomed boy, 17 years of age, whose appear-
17 years of age, whose appearance suggests anything but a drummer.
Loving drums as much as Phil does, it was a difficult decision to make when the question came up—"Which shall it be—music or football?" The football team at Haskell needed Phil on Friday nights. So did the band. The band knew that drummers like Phil Cato were unusual, and they wanted him badly. The band won.
As proof to his ability, Cato was heard and given an offer by Joe Donaldson, a talent scout for Gene Krupa. Thomason wanted Cato to come to Hollywood and be one of the four tom-tom men in the new Krupa motion picture, now in production. Cato's parents realized the opportunity presented in such an offer, but felt that Phil should finish high school first. They left the final decision up to him. He decided to remain in school and continue playing here.
Cato's father is the head of instrumental department at Haskell. All of Cato's ability on the drums was taught him by his father, but the love to play was a natural heritage. Phil often sits by the radio and plays his drums with the big name bands which broadcast. He loved to play, but many of his friends and advisors felt he ought to play football. Cato talked to his father. His father simply told Phil to make up his own mind. Phil did. He decided to stay with the band.
Phil almost had to quit the band for another reason. His set of traps was new last spring, paid for by Phil and his father. Phil is now trying to work to pay his father back. At this point the band felt that they should buy new suits. Phil was stuck.
He decided to stop playing in the band rather than cost his father any more money. He would work at nights and Saturdays until he could, earn enough to buy the suit, then

First Victory Variety Is 'Meet the Talent'
The first of the Victory Varieties, which will be presented in Fraser theater for three nights beginning Oct. 26, has been given the title, "Meet the Talent." Director Crafton says that since the idea of the revue will be built around a tryout for talent and since nearly everyone with an "act" or talent for an act will be in the show, the $ \textcircled{c} $
title seems appropriate.
There is wide variety in the various acts which are now in process of formation. For example, there is a little murder mystery called "Murder in the Afternoon" which, according to the director, may come off in a way not intended by the actors. There is a pantomine, set to music by Deems Taylor, which has a romantic angle, and is titled, "A Kiss in Kanadu," an act play called "The Tragedy of Brown" has appeared, and its many acts are puzzling even the director.
A number by the Dramatic Workshop, "The Indiscreet Nurse", is still a mystery, but the performers declare that they will have something sensational ready by the night of the performance. A dance act of the Hill's solo dancers is in process of evolution. The class in acting is working on the popular one-act comedy, "A woman of Character." Two singing acts are being rehearsed, and the director is now looking for a finale
A crew of carpenters, under the direction of Bob Johnson of the School of Engineering, is designing and constructing a new scenery unit for the stage. It promises to provide something different in staging for Hill dramatics.

Evans' performance enabled him to remain in first place among the passers of the nation in number of completions. He took over the leadership in that department the week before last.
Evans Saturday passed 36 times, and 17 of his tosses were good. Several other of the Jayhawk's serials hit receivers on the button, but were fumbled and went to incompletes. The day's passing work brought Evans total for the season to 48 completed passes out of an even hundred attempts.

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
The announcement is not to be construed as a reflection upon fraternities and sororities, President Joseph A. Brandt said. The two main objectives of the new order are to prevent further "indiscrections" such as rush week violations, and to enable organized houses to fit into the new over-all 12-month university program.
There'll be no more fraternity and sorority rush weeks, hazing of students by either Greek or non-Greek groups, or walkouts of pledges from their chapters, at the University of Oklahoma for the duration, probably for all time.
"Henceforth, all fraternities and sororites will become in fact as well as principle a part of the approved housing program of the university. Housemothers will have a responsibility in the future to the counselor of men or the counselor of women," states a new regulation.
Homecoming: But No Bonfire
Homecoming was celebrated at the University of Nebraska over the weekend without a bonfire and burning of Indiana's effigy. Fireworks were set off intermittently in the stadium to show spirit. The government rules on truck tires which are needed to collect the necessary material for the bonfire, and the waste paper savings program prevented the bonfire from being lighted.

A new building at Mary Baldwin College at Staunton, Va., is the $150,000 William Wayt King Memorial gymnasium.
Alumna Receives Fellowship
The largest room of the gymnasium is suitable for basketball and other games, and is spacious and lovely enough to serve as an auditorium for student dances or for assemblies. One interesting feature of the new building is the Mirror Room where huge mirrors are hung on either side of the wall, giving the room an attractive and unusual appearance.

TICKETS FOR---friend of Tschaikowsky, the famous Russian composer, and his father conducted one of the Russian Dzar's Imperial bands. Savitt started to play the violin when he was four and at fifteen he was offered a position in the Philadelphia Symphony orchestra by Stokowski.
Because of classical background, Savitt handles well the re-dressing of old and outstanding tunes. His arrangement of Raymond Scott's "In An Eighteenth Century Drawing Room," based on Mozart's "Easy Sonata" was acclaimed throughout the nation.
Before organizing his own band, Savitt played with the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra under Leopold Stokowski. He studied with this group for seven years. Later he became musical director for the National Broadcasting company in Philadelphia. Thirty-five musical units were under his direction, and Savitt set up one of these as a swing band. In this way Savitt's Tophatters were born.

Savitt combines his training of classical music with a modern swing style. His music is new, different, danceable, and entertaining. He styled his music with a distinctive off-beat, known familiarly as "shuffle-rhythm," and has pleased music-lovers of all tastes.
Played With Stokowski
A violin player himself, Savitt once used this instrument in several of his numbers. The success of this venture led him to include several arrangements in the band's repertoire which featured the violin. By the use of these arrangements, his popular "sweet swing" was popularized.
The love of music comes naturally to Savitt. His grandfather was a

After its publication in the United States, he resigned from the Times to devote all of his time to bringing about the Federal Union of democracies his book proposed.
After the fall of the European continental democracies, Streit proposed the wartime union of the remaining ones in another book entitled "Union Now With Britain." This book advocates that the United States, instead of going into the war on the basis of an alliance with the British, should establish a provisional Federal Union with them as the nucleus of a world government, and call a convention to work out a broader, more permanent constitution.
Streit, who is president of Federal Union, Inc., announced his positino and that of other Federal Unionists when he stated taat Federal Unionists believe that if a free society is to exist anywhere in the world, the United Nations must win a complete victory over the Axis dictators and militarists and establish a just and durable peace.

Streit Urges Swift Action By Democracies
The plan advocated by Mr. Streit proivides for an international organization of mankind. During the war, the United States and other democracies would unite, according to this plan, to form the nucleus for the larger organization which would follow, as the 13 colonies began as the nucleus for the United States of America.
Emphasizing that we need to act during the war, Clarence K. Streit asserted in a lecture in Hoch auditorium Tuesday night, that the United States must lead the way in any plan for the establishment of wor peace.
The federal union commented Mr. Streit, would be organized much on the same plan as the United States with a common currency, common postal system, common citizenship, and common trade regulations. The governing body would be a two-house representative body. An executive would enforce the laws, which would be laws applying to individuals since it would be a government for the people.
Authority Now Divided
Although federal union was first proposed as a means of preventing war, it is now advocated as a plan for winning the war sooner with less loss of life. With the nameless, shapeless Anglo-American alliance we now

Language Exam To Be Saturday
The translation of a foreign language will constitute the language proficiency examination to be given Saturday, Prof. W. H. Shoemaker, head of the Romance languages department, has announced.
Any student who has had at least two years of French, German, Latin, or Spanish is eligible to take the test in one of these languages. Students who pass the examination will have automatically filled the language requirement necessary for college students.
These examinations will be given at 10 a.m. Saturday in room 107, Frank Strong hall. Dictionaries are permitted and there will be several furnished. However, students are urged to bring their own and avoid the time lost in sharing the same dictionary with sorel persons.
In order to take the test registration had to be made by 2 o'clock this afternoon in the college office.
In the past few years the number of students taking the examinations has been small, Professor Shoemaker said. Only 25 or 30 students, six or eight in each language, attempt to fill their language requirement in this way each year.
Ticket Sale For Frolic Totals 73
Seventy-three tickets for the Freshman Frolic on Oct. 24 at Hoch auditorium have been sold to date, Larry MacSpadden, dance manager, announced today. The sales have been going fairly well, he added, considering the short period in which they have been on sale.
Tickets may be purchased at the business office in Frank Strong hall for $2 (plus tax) a couple. Tickets should be purchased early, McSpadden warned, since only a limited number will be sold.
Tickets may go on sale down town, but the place at which they will be sold has not yet been decided.
Jan Savitt and his Tophatters will play for the Frolic.

Major Leads
"Major in miniature" is Jerry Baker 7 years old, who will handle a baton with the rest of the twirling staff of the University Band at its first field day showing, "Gay Nineties Days," Saturday. After a twirling demonstration for Director Russell L. Wiley, Jerry was admitted to band membership as a major. "He's out of the mascot class," Wiley said.
Jerry, who is in the second grade at Cordle School, moved to Lawrence from Kansas City where he had been a member of the "Majorsite Corps," of George Rhoades, one of the four University twirlers. Last year he appeared with the Lawrence High School Band.
This is the first time Jerry has played with a university, but he is rather unconcerned about the whole thing. What really excites him, is the chance to see a big football game. Jerry is somewhat of an optimist. He doesn't doubt but that K.U. will win.
The size of the crowd won't bother Jerry because he is accustomed to appering before large audiences. Last year he won the "Discovery Night" program at the Tower Theater where he appeared for a week's engagement of four shows a day.
Jerry is the son of Mr. and Mrs O. S. Baker of Lawrence.

Imagination Is Contest Judge
Judges in the contest to determine the University's 12 loveliest women who will take part in the stage show to be held in connection with the Pumpkin Prom Nov.7, will have to use their imaginations to some extent.
Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser to women, has suggested that the women participating in the contest do not appear in bathing suits or similar attire. The discreet judging will take place today in the Little Theater of Green hall. Winners will be chosen on a standpoint of figure perfection, personality and beauty. Women's organized houses have been asked to submit a maximum of three entries in the contest.
The judges are Karl Matterm, associate professor of drawing and painting, Sy Scheurman, representing the ISA, Miss Alice Sherbon, a former student of Martha Graham, New York dancing teacher, and Alan Houghton, representing the Daily Kansan.
The Pumpkin Prom this year will be a combination of dance, carnival and stage show. the stage show being the first all-student presentation to be given here for some time.

Scrap Push
Campaign Ends
Tomorrow
The all-student scrap drive begun Friday and sponsored by the CVC with a goal of 35,000 pounds or 10 pounds a student will end tomorrow. The goal of 35,000 pounds probably will not be reached. A second drive is planned for Oct. 30 by the Men's Student Council, it was learned today, and the KuKu Club is holding their scrap iron for the MSC.
The Coed Volunteer Corps will make plans this evening at an officer and platoon meeting in the Pine room $ ^{o}f $the Memorial Union building for a final day push to bring the total pounds as high as possible, Jill Peck, major of CVC, said today.
The CVC, in cooperating with Dolph Simons, state chairman of the nation wide scrap iron drive, is planning to use the one-half cent a pound paid for the scrap to buy gifts to send to KU men in service overseas. These gifts must be sent by Nov. 1.
Mr. Simons will provide trucks to collect scrap metal that could not be transported to the pile in front of Fowler shops. Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, has reported approximately 500 pounds to be picked up; Sigma Nu's have an unestimated large pile; Mott's Stables turned in 500 to 600 pounds; Theta's reported 500 pounds; and the Pi Phi's know of approximately 1000 pounds. "The Christmas cheer for boys not here" pile is estimated at 2000 to 2500 pounds.
Malott Appoints Committee For Homecoming
Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today the appointment of a committee to coordinate activities for the Homecoming weeks, Oct. 29 and 30.
Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary, is chairman of the committee. Serving with him are George Hedrick, of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, representing the community; Lieutenant O'Hara of the Naval Training Station; Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College and last year's homecoming chairman; Marge Rader, WSGA president, and Vernon McKale, MSC president, student representatives.
Events being planned for the Homecoming weekend include a rally and entertainment in Hoch auditorium Friday night, navy graduation ceremonies on Saturday morning, and the Kansas-Nebraska football game in afternoon.
Concerning Homecoming, Chancellor Malott said, "In view of the war conditions and the obvious difficulties of travel, it seems unlikely that as large a number of alumni will be returning for homecoming as in former years, and I do not find a very strong interest in the usual homecoming festivities this year. Therefore, a large and active homecoming committee such as we have had in former years does not seem to be required in planning for the forthcoming Kansas-Nebraska football game weekend."
The committee appointed by the Chancellor will act as a steering committee to coordinate activities already being planned to take care of the various suggestions which may arise in connection with the homecoming.
Replogle Into Navy As Trainer
Wayne Replogle, freshman football coach, today announced his enlistment in the physical education division of the navy.
Replogle, who has coached fresh football here for the past three years will leave for Norfolk, Va., on Nov. 26. There he will receive six weeks of preliminary training in Gene Tunney's physical education cell division, and from there be assigned to his own naval station.
On completion of his training at Norfolk, Replogle will be rated as a chief specialist, and hold the rank of chief petty officer.
In addition to his work with the freshman gridiron squad this fall. Replogie has been aiding in the physical education department with the new conditioning program.
Repogle stated today that, while he regretted very much the severance of his relations with the University, the move was made necessary by the imminence of a selective service call.

Werner Tells Frosh Of Outside Activities
Henry Werner, adviser to men, spoke on "Extra-curricular Activities" this afternoon at the Memorial Union building. This speech was one of a weekly series of talks directed to the freshmen and sponsored by the YMCA.
Mr. Werner pointed out the value of participating in extra-curricular activities such as intramural sports, clubs, entertaining, newspaper work. Union activities, and the Jayhawker yearbook. He defined extra-curricular activities as those activities which are not required academically by the faculty but which show the interest and ambition of the student to do more than is required in the school course.
Park Rally to Climax Nightshirt Parade
Ernie Pontius, radio announcer, Gwinn Henry, Kansas football coach, and Vic Hurt, assistant football mentor, will be the speakers at the rally tomorrow night in the City park which will climax the annual "Nightshirt Parade," sponsored this year as a part of freshman "education" by the KuKu's and the K-Club.
Pajama-clad freshman men are requested to meet in front of the Memorial Union building at 9 o'clock where they will be regimented by the KuKu's and K-men and started on their march downtown. The University Band will accompany the marchers.
The rally will end with a free show for all participants at 11:15 p.m. at the Granada theater through the courtesy of the manager, Stan Schwann.
The procession will travel north to Sixth street, swing east to Massachusetts street, and then move south to the park where the rally will be held.
Kellogg Loans To Six Students
Six medical students have been granted loans from the Kellog loan fund, available for the first time this semester, it was announced today by Henry Werner, chairman of the loan fund committee.
A $10,000 grant was made to the School of Medicine by the W. K. Kellog foundation of Battle Creek, Mich., to help students of medicine who are in the accelerated war program. Use of the fund is restricted to fees and books.
Qualifications for loans include participation in the speed-up program, scholarship standard acceptable to the University, and need of financial assistance.
The loans are repayable one year after finishing internship.
after finishing internship at two and one-half per cent interest.
The University is one of 150 schools receiving grants from the foundation.
Names of the recipients will not be released.
A recent tabulation lists the valuation of fraternity and sorority chapter houses at $153,124,000.
Secretary to American Press Attache Visits Here
InLondon Eight Years . . .
... Tells of British Life
"Americans do not realize how impersonal the lives of the English have been since the beginning of the war," summed up Mrs. Frances Nowlin Head in a visit yesterday to the University.
Mrs. Head attended the University from 1918-20 and has spent the last eight years as secretary to the press attache of the American embassy in Lon don.
"The British no longer enjoy the luxuries of leisure, of frivolous hours, of personal indulgence," she said. "Their lives are bound up in the war and the war effort. There can be no other life for them until the war is over."
Peaches Sell for $1.20
Accustomed to life in England after three years of war, America seemed to Mrs. Head a "land of plenty." Fruit is almost impossible to obtain in England, she said, and when she left peaches were selling for $1.20 each.
Mrs. Head explained that today there are two American embassies in London; the regular embassy and a second embassy in which Mr. Anthony Drexel Biddle, Jr., is accredited to all the refugee governments.
England, as Mrs. Head described it, is entirely utilitarian now. Farming allotments have been assigned in the parks. Window boxes are filled with tomato plants. Ducks are swimming about in "static water" tanks—the tanks that are there to help fight incendiary bombs. People are raising chickens in coops on their roof tops; these are examples of what Mrs. Head admiringly called the English "ability to improvise."
Picadilly Becomes "Jeep Street"
American troops, Mrs. Head said, are a familiar sight in London. Pleadily, one of London's famous old streets, has been nicknamed "Jeep Street," for it houses a contingent of
American soldiers who dart back and forth in the army bantam cars.
There were still plenty of clothes in London shops, but Mrs. Head said they were very expensive and when the current stock gives out, "utility clothes" will be the rule. These are designed according to government regulations and are "very wearable," she said.
Many things seem strange to Mrs. Head after London—private cars in use, the size of our newspapers—most London papers are down to three sheets—and our sugar rationing, with bowls of sugar on the tables or a seemingly unlimited amount of lump sugar.
Mrs. Head is returning to London in November as she left, by Pan-American clipper plane. This time, however, she will have to go by way of Lisbon instead of Ireland, for the latter route is closed in winter.
Women Will Complete Rifle Preliminaries
Preliminary practices of the Rifle Club will be completed this Saturday, and the organization will have a meeting early next week to make plans for future activities. Any University woman is privileged to join the Rifle Club and participate in the group, provided she pays a small fee covering the use of a rifle. Any woman interested should see Mary Lou Nelson, Nancy Teichgraeber, or Lieut. W. A. Shockley.

"Young people of today must face hard facts without losing courage and conviction," observed Dr. Byran S. Stoffer, president of Washburn University in Topeka, in his address to the YWCA and the YMCA at a joint membership dinner in the Memorial Union ballroom last night.
"Seeing It Through" was the theme of Dr. Stoffer's speech. He related the analogies between Christ's decision to face opposition, misunderstanding, rejection, and death for the sake of his beliefs, and the decision youth must make regarding the uncertain, unpleasant future.
"Young people are to be commended on the way they are facing serious problems. They are not in an hysterical form of mind as in 1917 and 1918," he commented.
He advised the audience to "determine whether the thing for which you are striving is worthwhile, then

Union Pacific plays its part in building a healthy America by hauling tons of grain and other western-grown products for our homes and our men in service. It plays its part in maintaining American freedom by transporting huge shipments of armament, trainloads of troops over "the Strategic Middle Route" uniting the East with the West.
THINK of the ersatz food eaten by Axis-dominated people and thank Providence for our rolling fields of grain, our vitamin-rich bread that helps to keep us a healthy Nation; a Nation determined to remain strong and free.
All Union Pacific employes realize that this is a job that must be done—and they're doing it. Day in and day out, they're "keeping 'em rolling" to back up Uncle Sam.

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
From Otto Schnellbacher, outstanding sophomore end, comes charges that this column has been entirely too critical in its attitude toward the Jayhawk football eleven, and Otto took a long step toward proving his point Saturday with his fine pass receiving. Schnellbacher's Delta Chi fraternity brother, Dick Channel, finally came to the conclusion that this column's errors were excusable, however, "since most sports editors don't know anything about sports, anyway." Now, boys! Seriously, however, it does bring up that old question of whether the school paper should serve as a publicity outlet for the school's varsity sports, or should operate as any other newspaper, giving the writer's unprejudiced viewpoint on the teams. The Kansan has always leaned toward the latter choice.

* * * * *

Certainly the Jayhawks, prior to last Saturday's game, showed little to cheer about. Too optimistic coverin of the grid goings-on would have fallen into the "high schoolish" line of trying to pep the boys up. Such work should be left to the pep rally and the college publicity man. After all, it goes without saying that every Jayhawk does his best while on the field. A coach of Gwinn Henry's caliber would not put up with anything less than a gridman's very best performance. So let us just forget the first three games of the year, and make the most of last week's game, when for the first time it appeared that Kansas might have something in the way of a football team. Said one observer of the game: "I felt just like I felt after the Marquette game last year. We lost, but showed more in losing than we had previously shown all year." And, remember, following the Marquette game last year, we won over Iowa State.
The Jayhawkers are showing more spirit this week than at any other time this year. Said big tackle Don Johnson: "If we could keep this kind of spirit, we should beat Oklahoma this week." Still bothering coach Henry, however, is the fact that probably neither of the Roberts boys—Gene and Joe—will be ready for heavy duty against the tough Sooner line. So fans can once again expect the Jayhawks to take to the air with vengeance. Last week the Texas Longhorns completed eight of 20 passes against the Oklahoma secondary. It is a safe bet that Texas, good as their passer may be, showed the Sooners none of the brand of leather flinging which Ray Evans will exhibit Saturday. It's another safe bet that coach Dewey Luster is stressing pass defense down in Norman this week.

wo Javihawk reserves is puzzling fans who have witnessed them in action during practice sessions at Memorial Stadium. They are guard John Herron, and end Bernard Passman. Herron has yet to see action in a varsity game, but in practices appears to be one of the hardest blocking men on the squad. He is a watch-charm guard of the type that made football history at Notre Dame. Herron pulls out of the line fast, and as a running guard at Topeka was chosen all-conference in the Eastern Kansas conference. Passman is one of the more rugged ends, and in scrimmage reminds observers of Hub Ulrich of last year's squad. Unfortunately for Passman, the team is long on capable ends. However,

Dale Hall, the former Parsons High school flash, scored one of West Point's touchdowns Saturday against Cornell . . . Ed Linquist, plunging fullback, at present has by far the best running average of the Jayhawk backs, and some fans are wondering why he doesn't carry the ball oftener . . . Don't forget that when Flem Hall said Evans turned in the best passing performance since Sammy Baugh at Ft. Worth, he was covering a lot of territory. One Davie O'Brien did some excellent flinging there since Baugh's time . . . The Wichita Commandos, powered by Miller Merkel, and Bausch, are still undefeated, and have been scored on but once.

Three Games Open Touch Football Race
Beta Theta Pi, one of the pre-season favorites for the fourth straight year, started the 1942 intramural touch-football schedule with a hotly contested 12 to 0 victory over a scrappy Sig Alph crew. For three consecutive quarters the Betas hammered at the Sig Alph goal, but every time were halted by brilliant defensive work. Standouts in this Sig Alph stop signal were Schloesser, Humphrey, and Gage.
When the hardy Sig Alph line would finally halt the drive, which was often deep in their territory, Frank Gage would pull out of his position at guard to punt the ball time after time back into Beta territory. But in the last quarter a Beta offensive was too much for the Sig Alph team and they were forced to yield two touchdowns.
Leaders in the Beta offensive were four former intramural all-stars—Johnny Short, Bill Mowery, and Tom Lillard, who played on last year's run-up-team, and Vance Hall, the passing star of a championship Beta '39 team. Johnny Short, former all-

After leading the Kappa Sigs, 6 to 0 until late in the third quarter, Sigma Phi Epsilon was nosed out 7 to 6 in the hardest fought game of the day Tuesday.
UNION PACIFIC STACES
The Sig Ep tally came on their first play when Kresie shot a long pass to Teichgraeber, who scampered over the Kappa Sig goal line. Dole scooped up a looping 50 yard pass to score for Kappa Sig, and Finney kicked the extra point.
Both teams looked good, but Miller and Stream from the Sig Ep eleven were outstanding on the defense, rushing hard and fast with machine-like persistency. Dole, Godding, S. Hansen, Finney, and Forenne were the Kappa Sig key men while Kresie, Ogg, Teichgraeber, and Stream were the main cogs in the losers' offense.

Scrap Metal Needs Treatment ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Trip to Battle Is Long
Next time you are out riding around, head your car down East Ninth street and see the procedure Persephone is going to have to go through before becoming a part of some shell headed for Hirohito and his yellow-skinned crew.
At the end of the street is the home of the Auto Wrecking and Junk Company where the scrap metal from the city and campus scrap drive is put into box cars for shipment to mills where it will be converted to war use.
At one end of the block-long yard, truckload after truckload of non-descript metal is dumped on the grounds where men struggle to sort their way out of the huge piles of scrap. Various Metals Separated
Here the scrap is separated into mountains of cast iron, steel, brass, alumninum, copper, and tin.
When a box car arrives to take the metal to one of the eastern mills, the metal isn't just dumped into the car and started rolling. First, the scrap must be cut up so that it can be easily handled at the mills.
The larger chunks of scrap have to be cut apart with a blow torch. Persephone, washing machines, tractors, and the cannon donated from the Lawrence park will be among those receiving the blow torch treatment.
For smaller, less bulky pieces of scrap—bed steads, bedsprings, wagon wheels, pipes, and chains, a machine resembling a nut cracker and a pair of nail clippers is used. This chopper cuts two-inch iron rods with as much ease as a person bites thru a slice of bread.
Community Doing Part
Then, and only then, is the junk ready for shipment. Community Doing Part
The co-managers of the company, Morris Cohen and J. W. Cohen, are well-convinced that Lawrence and the surrounding county means business in collecting scrap.
This month's quota of 500 tons which must be shipped to the mills will probably be passed before many days, they said. Already, with only half the month gone, more than 300 tons of potential guns and ships have been loaded in box cars and started for the mills.
The "Old Oaken Bucket" for which Dickenson and Bettysburg colleges vie on the football field is in relarity a mahogany bucket, and only a few years old.

Naval Reserves May Form Club
"Learn everything you can now; you may not have time later." Lt. Comm. Lyle O. Armel advised University students who met in the Memorial Union building last night at the first official meeting of those enrolled in the navy enlisted reserve.
Armel's speech hit the keynote for the meeting which was called to bring naval reserve students together. Dean F. J. Moreau of the School of Law presided at the meeting.
Following speeches by Chancellor Deane W. Malott, Lt. Wilson Crosby of the Kansas City, Mo., Naval Aviation Selection board, Lt. Arthur H Buhl, commander of the Machinist's Mates School here, and Lieutenant Commander Armel, the potential naval officers decided to meet again Oct. 28.
A suggestion made by the Chancellor that those in the naval reserve form some sort of organization was left open until the next meeting.
ISA Plans Varsity For Saturday Night
Although only 150 students are listed in the University's offices as being enrolled in the V programs, many students not in the naval reserve attended. It was decided that any students who have already received commissions in the navy be asked to attend the meetings.
The ISA fall varsity will be from 9:30 p.m. to 12:00 Saturday evening in the ballroom of the Memorial Union building. Danny Bachmann and his band will furnish the music. Admittance to the dance is limited to membership in the organization. Individuals, however, may purchase their membership cards for the year at the door.

Cyclones Prepare For Game With Drake U. Bulldogs
Ames, Iowa, Oct. 15—Somewhat heartened by the splendid showing of hitherto untried reserves, the Iowa State football squad has settled down to preparing for the forty-second renewal of its rivalry with Drake. The two teams meet at Ames Saturday.

Keep Them on the Farms
Government officials have at last recognized that there exists a critical shortage of farm labor. Too many men who formerly worked on farms are now in the military service, or have been lured by high wages to employment in the war industries.
The Washington columnist, Drew Pearson, suggests that we draft about 30,000 of the red tape artists, government publicity experts, and bureaucrats in Washington, and let them feed the nation. (But, do they know anything about farming?)
In his recent speech, President Roosevelt pointed out that it is possible that drastic legislation may be necessary to keep the farmer supplied with help to harvest the nation's food supplies.
Japanese laborers now in re-location centers such as the one at Granada, Colo., might be used. There is a growing sentiment in the beet country of the Arkansas valley of western Kansas in favor of using Jap labor in the beet fields, if other help is scarce.
Various methods have been offered that might alleviate this shortage but the working value of some is a matter of great conjecture.
Plans are being suggested whereby schoolchildren might spend some time in the fields. Possibly city workers should be encouraged to spend their vacations in the harvest fields.
Most farm boys drive trucks and tractors as soon as they are big enough to handle the machines. Two old men, ages 78 and 82, put up the alfalfa crop on a farm in Pawnee county. During the wheat harvest last summer many of the trucks were driven by women. A few drove tractors. Women help shock feed, repair fences, and paint barns. They milk cows, care for chickens, tend gardens, and preserve food for the family.
But they can't take the place of a skilled farm-hand. A good farm-hand is just as much a skilled-laborer as a riveter; now that no more farm machinery is being made, what we have now must last for the duration of the war.
As more and more men are called into the armed forces, it is imperative that something be done to keep farmers on the farm. They should be deferred from army service, with the understanding that they stay on the farm and don't go off somewhere to build airplanes.
Patriotic Japanese internees should be given employment on farms. If necessary, drafted farmers should be honorably discharged from military service to return to the food production part of service to the country. Farmers should be encouraged, even forced, to stay on the farms rather than get an office or skilled job in a war industry.
After all, an army marches on its stomach. The military forces can bog down just as severely because of lack of food as of lack of the mechanical devices necessary to fight the war.
The Clay Center Dispatch tells about the Clay county sheriff adding a home brew bottle capper to the scrap collection; it had been stored in his basement.
Just Wondering
How does the new metal flagpole, which is being erected in front of Frank Strong hall, fit into the all-out scrap drive?
Maybe it is only wishful thinking, quips the Salina Journal, but it begins to appear that as far as Stalingrad is concened, the Nazi's can't make the grade.
The Pittsburg Sun believes that the present often makes up for the past—that is if the present costs enough.

Earle O'Connor, business junior fr mPaola, seems to harbor thoughts entirely unrelated to accounting when he attends his Accounting V class. Proof o fthis assumption is offered by the following testimonial:
As I sit in class just dreaming away,
I thing of Paola and its small white way;
The thoughts of such and persons therein,
Take a person's heart away from sin.
These thoughts with meaning and ever so nice Are not of man's sin commonly known as vice, And when they ask, are these thoughts of Eva? No, no I reply. They're of a girl named Reva. (continued to page seven)

Men Seek Fun
★ ★ ★
Find Repose
Misinterpretation of "re", of the word re-creation, caused confusion and amusement. Monday, at the "Noon-tide Re-creation for Living in This World" program, sponsored by the School of Religion.
The atmosphere of quiet and inspiration was changed radically when five men students rushed into the Fine room at 1 o'clock, expecting to spend 20 minutes in recreational fun, said the Rev. E. F. Price.
All students and faculty members are invited to come next Wednesday to orient themselves from worldly activities, and relieve the tension and pressure of life by meditation and listening to quiet music.
Mortar Board Plans Series of Teas at Miss Meguiar's Home
Plans for the year were made by Mortar Board Tuesday evening. The group, which met at Miller hall, arranged for a series of five teas which will be at Miss Elizabeth Meguiar's home. University women invited to these teas will be selected at random; however arrangements will be made so that every student will have an opportunity to attend at least one of these affairs during her four years in college. A tea for sophomore honor women at the home of Mrs. Deane Malott was scheduled for sometime in November. The budget was discussed and plans were made for the freshman council system, which will be announced soon. The members also extended an invitation to Miss Meguiar to have dinner with them this evening at the Colonial tea room.
Those present at the meeting besides the eight members were Miss Megular, Miss Marie Miller and Miss Buelah Morrison, members of the Mortar Board advisory board.
Bacteriology Club Elects New Officers at Meeting
Officers for the school year were elected yesterday at the first meeting of Phi Sigma, bacteriology club. The new officers are: president, Barbara Edmons; vice-president, Carl Hoak; and secretary-treasurer, Alice Timpe.
Carl Hoak is the chairman of the activities committee whose new members are Jean Rubbra, Mildred Ogle, Eileen Smith, Clair Oliver, Nada Clifton, Mrs. Vera Wismer, Mrs. Grace Brooks, and Jean Oyster.
Author's Club Opens Contest to Kansans
The Kansas Author's Club has announced its 22nd annual authorship contest open to all residents of Kansas and to all members of the Kansas Author's Club except previous first prize winners. The contest is divided into six sections including short story, editorials, poetry, drama, poetry for writers 21 years of age or under, and juvenile short story.
Contactants may compete in all classifications, one entry in each. Manuscripts should be typed on $ \frac{8}{12} $ by 11 inch paper, double spaced, and on one side of the paper only. One copy of each entry, plainly marked as to classification, should be sent with 50 cents registration fee for each manuscript submitted by a non-member of the club.
Names of contestants must not appear on the manuscripts, the rules state, but should be enclosed with name or names of works submitted in an accompanying envelope. All material submitted must be original and unpublished, but will remain the property of the writer.
Judges of the contest will be instructed to withhold awards if material is not of sufficient merit to warrant a prize. There will be no ties. According to the rules, decisions of judges are final, and no correspondence will be entered into in regard to awards, which will be
made at the annual meeting in January.
No manuscripts will be returned unless a self-addressed, stamped envelope of such size as to accommodate material submitted is enclosed. Material may be sent before Nov. 1 to Miss Edna Becker, contest manager, 1524 Grove avenue, Topeka.
SERVICE BOARD---thing in which you believe?" asked Steit. "Humanity has cast its ballot for a union of the free," he explained, "as is evidenced by the immigration to the United States of every race, nation, and religion to begin life here anew."
(continued from page one) pointed out that no enlistments will be made by the Board—its visit to the campus being solely advisory in character. The Army and Navy will separately provide means for the accomplishment of enlistments in their respective services, probably two or three weeks after the visit of the joint information board. Following the general convoction, the representatives of the various service branches will be available in the Men's Lounge of the Union Building on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons for individual conferences with students interested in any of the reserve pro-grams
No reference will be made to the branches of service open to women, but women students, especially those being trained for teaching, are urged to attend the opening session.

The Sigma Nu farm has taken on a new member. A possum was caught the other night near their house, and the Sigma Nu's decided to tame him. They felt that they knew animals fairly well since last year they had eight dogs and only five cats. Possums, they found, are not of the same nature. Now they are asking, "Does anyone want a fine, young possum?" You-all from the South might be interested.

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
Princeton University has announced a prohibition on undergraduate resort to tutoring and is instituting a program for tutoring in certain justifiable cases.
An undergraduate who feels he needs extra help will apply to the executive secretary of the committee on scholastic guidance for an analysis of his case. If his trouble centers in faulty reading habits, he will receive remedial reading instruction; if he seems to "lack motivation," he will receive counsel in vocational guidance; if he has been handicapped by illness or "other compelling causes," he will be assigned to an authorized tutor. An outstanding feature is that aid will not be based on the ability to pay, as it has been in the past.
To Clang At Hitler
The Old Main bell, for 38 years a souvenir of the alumni of the University of Minnesota, is going into the service. The alumni association is donating to the scrap drive the 25-pound copper and bronze bell, which was formerly the signal bell for classes in the Old Main building.
The 16-inch diameter bell was used for 35 years, from 1869 to 1904. In 1904 Old Main burned but the bell was salvaged by some alumni. Boilermakers Donate Blood
A total of 173 people of the originally scheduled 200 donated a pint of blood each to the American Red Cross last week at Purdue University. A certain number of those who were signed up were not able to carry through with the blood donations because of colds, high blood pressure and other physical difficulties.
Anyone between 16 and 60 was allowed to donate a pint of blood, but those under 20 had to have a release

No Educational Deferments After July, 1943, House Committee Plans Evans Is Kansas Summer School Not Required 18-19's May Study Until End of Academic Year
By J. Donald Keown,
Kansas Sports Editor
A revamped Jayhawker lineup, featuring the nation's top passing duo of Evans and Schnellbacher, will tomorrow afternoon tackle a rugged, but as yet punchless, Oklahoma Sooner outfit in the annual Parents Day game.
Three of the members of the starting Kansas backfield quartet were second-stringers but a few days ago, although one started last-week. However, the fourth member is Ray Evans, and upon him the spotlight will once again be turned, for in
his pass-throwing arm rests much of the Jayhawk victory hopes.
Aiding Evans with the offensive chores will be Hoyt Baker, Kenneth "Boots" Adams, and Gene Sherwood. was made necessary by injuries to four Jayhawk backs. Ed Linquist. The revamping of the starting lineup fullback and the team's best gainer on the ground, will not start because of injuries received in the TCU game. Linquist, however if he appears to be ready in tonight's practice session, will see some action tomorrow. Harlan Altman, signal-caller, is out with on infected tooth and a pulled leg muscle, and is not likely to see heavy duty. The Roberts boys—Joe and Gene—will also probably witness most of the game from the bench again.
Sherwood is expected to take over Linquist's plunging duties, while ponybacks Baker and Adams hope to supply the speed which has been lacking in the Kansas backfield this year.
Also moving up into the starting lineup for the first time this fall is expected to be the sophomore sensa-

Sailors Go Rural Volunteer Aid
Machinist's mate trainees at the University Naval Training School, who volunteered their services on weekends to alleviate the farm labor shortage in the Lawrence area, report that they experienced nearly every type of farm occupation in their farming chores last weekend.
These men volunteered as farm laborers when the pressing need for hands to harvest fall crops was made known. One group reported that they were called upon to gather a farmer's pear crop.
Another group spent the autumn weekend, and their only liberty time during the week, bucking and stacking alfalfa and Kansas blue-stem.
Others spent the day helping put up one of the finest Kansas corn crops in years, and some were put to shocking forage crops and filling silos.
Frown on Fancy Homecoming Queen Will Be Chosen
Fred Ellsworth, chairman of the Homecoming committee, announced today the plans set forth by the committee for events of the weekend of Oct. 30 and 31.
Commencement exercises of the first class to graduate from the Naval Training School here will take place Saturday morning, Oct. 31. Lieutenant O'Hara has charge of
The committee voted to recommend that there be no decoration of houses for Homecoming as has been the practice in the past, also no parade. It was voted to select a Homecoming queen. The committee in charge of selecting the queen is Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College, and Peggy Davis, WSGA representative.
arrangements for commencement.
Students are planning a combined rally and dance for Friday evening. The committee in charge of plans is headed by Bill Wood, secretary of the KuKu's. Assisting him are Vernon McKale, president of the MSC, and Fred Ellsworth, Home-coming chairman.
The University band will take part in the pre-game and half-time activities at the Kansas-Nebraska contest. Included in the ceremonies will be the presentation of a $25 war bond to the governor of the winning state in the scrap contest between Kansas and Nebraska from the governor of the losing state. At the present time Kansas is leading in the collection of scrap metal.
Summer School Not Required For War Loans
a wire received by Henry Werner, adviser of men, from government officials in Washington states that the restriction of required summer school attendance in order to receive government loans has been removed.
The removal of this restriction qualifies any student for loans who meets the other requirements of participation — accelerated study course, scholastic ability, and financial need. Mr. Werner announced that more than 20 additional students would now be eligible.
Additional funds were not granted, but any of the present funds available after making loans to those who had been enrolled in the 1942 summer school session may be lent to others who are otherwise eligible.
KFKU to Broadcast Discussions
A series of programs over KFKU, sponsored by the Forums Board and centered around the general topic "America at War," will begin Nov. 6. The programs will be presented in the form of discussions by three or four members of the Forums panel, which will be composed of students from various schools of the University.
The discussions, which will be broadcast under the program, "K.U. Bull Session," are scheduled to go on the air at 9:30 p.m. Thursday evenings. This fall series is one of three which the Forums Board has planned for the current year.
Plans for these programs were made at the Forums Board meeting last night. Arrangements were also made for three other services by this organization. The first service discussed will be concerning the various departments of the different schools in the University.
These forums will feature out-of-town speakers as well as faculty and student speakers. The Forums Board will also work in cooperation with the Speech department in relation to speech contests and lectures.
The Board will meet Monday evening in the Union building to discuss subjects for the series of broadcasts and to choose a permanent group to serve on the Forums Panel.

Students 18 and 19 years old in college would be granted deferment until the end of the current academic year, according to terms of a bill passed yesterday by the House military affairs committee, but no provisions were made for further deferment of students. War department plans, according to army spokesmen, have already been formulated, however, for students in
Women Selected For Stage Show
Thirteen University women were chosen yesterday as "Campus Queens" to appear in the stage show of the Pumpkin Prom on Nov. 7. The contest was conducted in Little theater of Green hall.
Those selected from the panel of organized house candidates were Dale Jellison, Martha Thompson Jean Rose, Betty Jeanne Hess, Eloise Hillenbrand, Pat Foster, Juanita Bowman, Dorothy Lee Miller, Marjorie Gunley, Martha Nearing, Gloria Brinkman, Ann Lee Nelson and Ellesta Meyer.
The original intention was to select only 12 women, but the thirteenth was added because of possible eligibility restrictions. All students who are to appear in the stage show must pass the requirements

Activity Books 'Must' for Game
At least 150 students will not be able to attend the Kansas-Oklahoma game tomorrow if they are depending on activity tickets for admission, for that number is being withheld because of lack of photographs.
Fifty of these persons have failed to have retakes because of the fogging of the first film; the rest are late registrants who did not report at the photographic bureau in the basement of the library as instructed, Miss Burch M. Brown, photographer said. All late pictures are being taken at the photographic bureau.
Without activity tickets, students will not be admitted free to the football game, or any of the series of lectures and concerts offered on the University Concert and Lecture Course.

essential occupations to continue their studies after induction.
Chief provisions of the bill would:
1. Authorize drafting of 18 and 19- year-olds.
2. Grant no deferments for educational purposes after July 1, 1943, although a man now in school may request deferment until then or until the end of the current academic year.
3. Make draft quotas state-wide instead of local, ordering the induction of all eligible single men in a state before drafting of married men. Similarly, married men without children
The Don Cossack chorus, Russian male choir of 27 voices, will present the first concert of the University Concert Course in Hoch auditorium at 8:20 p. m. next Wednesday.
The chorus has been organized for 15 years, and during that time has given more than 4,000 concerts on six continents. The director is Nicholas Kostrukoff.

Russian Chorus Brings Dances, Songs to Hoch
Included on the program will be some of Tschaikovsky's choral works and folk music of the Cossack country, national dances, the "Volga Boat Song" in its original setting, and a novelty number in which the choir's voices imitate a Russian accordian.
The chorus will also present souvenir's of their world-wide travels such as a Maori Farewell song, which they learned last year in New Zealand.
In addition to the vocal numbers will be a demonstration of Cossack dancing featuring a Russian whirlwind dance, and a sword dance.
D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, asks that all persons planning to get season tickets or reserved seat tickets call for them at the Fine Arts office by noon Wednesday. Season tickets will not be sold the night of the concert.

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
For the second time this year, the Jayhawks are seriously being given an excellent chance of coping a ballgame. Fans hope they come through toorrow in better style than they did against Denver. Certainly the Jayhawks' spirit this week has been encouraging. The boys have been giving it the old college try all week. Partly responsible for this change is one Frosty Wilson, about whom fans will hear and see a lot before the present football season is over. Keep your eyes on him tomorrow. Not only can he block with gusto, but Wilson also has loads of spirit out there on the field. He may be what the Jayhawks have been needing all fall to wake them up. If so, then it will be a bad day for the Sooners.
Fans attending tomorrow's Parents Day game may be surprised by seeing a high-scoring game, instead of a defensive struggle. The low-scoring records of both teams in past performances this fall hardly point to such a contest, but both coaches have indicated they will not be surprised at such a game. The Sooners are expected to be weak on the defense against Evans' passing, while on the other hand many observers believe the Sooner running attack will pack entirely too much power for the Kansas line to cope with. Certainly, it is a chance for the Kansas squad to put a stop to what has seemed to be a nosedive into the most disastrous season in recent Kansas football history. A victory over Oklahoma would make fans forget a lot of the past defeats.
Here is the way the bigger ones look this week: Tennessee over Alabama in the South's best game; Texas to whip Arkansas; Army to nose out Columbia; Best College to beat the North Carolina Cadets; California to rebound against UCLA; Colgate to defeat Duke; Detroit to down Manhattan; Fordham to blitz West Virginia; Georgia to take a thriller from Tulane; Georgia Tech to march on against Davidson; Illinois to down Iowa (but here is a good chance for an upset); Indiana and Pitt even up; Iowa State to rebound against Drake; Missouri to massacre Kansas State; Kentucky to beat VPI; Louisiana State to outlast Mississippi; Michigan State to top Marquette; Michigan to win over Northwestern in one of the better games.
Minnesota to finally find itself against Nebraska; Mississippi State to down troublesome Vanderbilt; Navy to beat Yale; Rice to conquer North Carolina; Iowa Cadets to nose out Notre Dame; Ohio State to continue its winning ways against Purdue; Oklahoma Aggies to overwhelm Arizona; Santa Clara to take a close one from Oregon State; Penn to down Princeton; St. Mary's to defeat San Francisco; Washington State over Southern California; SMU to rebound against Temple; Stanford to defeat Idaho; Texas A & M gets the nod over TCU; Tulsa, one of the nation's power-houses, to ride over strong Washington; Villanova to beat Florida; Wake Forest to topple North Carolina State; Wichita to defeat Washburn; Great Lakes to nose out Wisconsin.

47 Freshmen 16 Varsity Men Now Practicing
By Paul Brownlee
The University's cage squads are working out twice a week in Robinson gymnasium, and even Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, basketball menter, admits there is no cause for the basketball blue this fall.
Dr. Allen said today that the varsity this year would be characterized by a squad smaller than those of former years.
Forty-seven freshmen are practicing under the tutelage of Marvin Sollenberger and Dick Miller, members of last year's varsity, and 16 varsity men ply their wares before Dr. Allen. Eleven varsity members are now participating in football, but as soon as the football season is finished Ray Evans, Charles Black Paul Turner, Otto Schnellbacher, and other stalwarts will be available for court duty.
Under Dr. Allen's system, the freshmen are learning the fundamentals of basketball, such as pivoting, passing, and dribbling.
Builds Individualists
"I am not trying to make a great team of five or six players, but I am trying to build a great group of individuals, whom when placed together in groups of five can click because of thorough knowledge of fundamentals." Dr. Allen explained. "My system is nearly identical with the St. Louis Cardinals' farm system. The major differences is the fact that
the Cardinals' baseball players are brought from farm teams all over the country, while my basketball players are all members of one squad here at the University," Dr. Allen added.
"I believe that this system of coaching is very appropriate during these war-times because of the ease with which it enables the player, after leaving college, to make the stiffer team of Uncle Sam's" Dr. Allen commented.
Dr. Allen believes that there are two particularly important things gained from intercollegiate athletics—the fact that the player is introduced favorably to business and society, and "the art of learning to say no a thousand times to temptation before you can say yes once to victory."
Returning from last year's varsity will be three sensations from last year—Ray Evans, Charlie Black, and John Buesccher. Around these three men the 1942-43 edition of the Jayhawk quintet will be built.
Outstanding Sooner End Will Perform Tomorrow
Can Play Football
As a toughening-up measure Dr. Allen is allowing the members of the basketball squads to participate in intramural football this fall.
Dub Lamb of Oklahoma, a beefy, blond boy who often beats the Sooner punts down to the enemy safety, is delighting Oklahoma fans with thrilling end play this season.
Punt coverage has been Lamb's speciality. Sooner kickers rarely bother to boot the ball out of bounds. Instead they save yardage by the old-fashioned method of powering their punts far down the field and letting the speeding Lamb smack the safety squarely in his tracks. And Lamb seldom misses.
Although Lamb's wolfish punt coverage was outstanding in both the Oklahoma Aggie and Tulsa games, the chunky Sooner game captain was at his best in last week's hard-tought Oklahoma-Texas clash in the Dallas Cotton Bowl which Dana X. Bible's Steers won 7 to 0.
On the last play of the first quarter, Huel Hamm, Oklahoma's tailback, lofted a high spinning 52-yard punt. It was a great race between Lamb and the spiraling ball. Down on the Texas 10-yard line, fleet Jackie Field, Texas safety, gathered in the kick and started running laterally only to have Lamb nail him around the ankles with a quail-high tackle that dropped him on the Texas five-yard line.
Lamb also rushes the passer viciously. He set up Oklahoma's best offensive opportunity in the Texas game, a Sooner drive that went to the Texas eight-yard line just before the first half ended, by sweeping in to
O'Leary and Amerine To Speak Saturday at Game
capsize Travis Raven, Texas forward-passer who was fading back to pass. Lamb's rush jolted the ball from Raven's hands, Oklahoma recovered on her 47-yard mark and the Sooners were on offense the rest of the period.
Lamb is also Oklahoma's finest pass receiver. Last year he grabbed nine passes for 168 yards, running the broken field cleverly as a halfback to score the winning touchdown against the Oklahoma Aggies on a pass from Jack Jacobs.
The straw-haired Sooner end is indispensable in other ways. He acts as Sooner game captain and also as drillmaster when Oklahoma's red-garbed squad first trots out on the field to do its calisthenics.
The Rock Chalk Co-op, one of last season's six-man finalists, served notice that they have winning ideas again this season by soundly trouncing Triangle 30 to 0.
The defending champions using an excellent assortment of plays could pull nothing out of the bag to slip past a wily Sigma Chi squad. A Sigma Chi offense that would have measured up to their defense would have been the deciding factor in the thriller.
A break produced the score with Johnson rushing in from his tackle slot, intercepting a pass in the Sigma Chi backfield, and running 50 yards down the field to score.
Lieutenants Ted O'Leary and Dick Amerine of the Naval Reserve will speak over station WREN for five minutes between halves of the Kansas—Oklahoma football game Saturday, it has been announced.
Led by Captain "Long John" Reber, the Rock Chalk men scored a few minutes after the opening whistle and left no doubt as to the outcome as they completely dominated play.
Polka and CanCan ★★★ Gay Nineties
"Gay Nineties Day," to be staged at half time of the Kansas-Oklahoma game tomorrow, has added an act by the University Band baton twirlers. The twirlers will fling their batons aside and swing their ladies.
Phi Gam's Score 6 to O Victory Over Sigma Chi
O'Leary, a Kansas alumni, is associated with the naval aviation cadet selection board, and will be at the University Saturday for Kansas Editor's Day. Amerine is to be the guest of honor at the game.
The drum majorettes will then break into the old burlesque favorite, the "Can Can."
Phi Gamma Delta eked out a 6 to 0 victory over a fighting Sigma Chi eleven in the main attraction on yesterday's intramural program.
When the band struck up the "Beer Barrel Polka" during practice, the twirlers high-stepped right into an old fashioned polka. The band liked it, so it's part of the show. One thing led to another and presently the cake walk was added. As Casey would waltz with his strawberry blonde, George Rhoades will one-two-three around the field with Doris Kyle, while Bill Sears does the same with Dorothy Nicholson.
Lee Sanks, all-star center of last year, playing a usual bang-up game blocked a kick and recovered to core a safety for the Rockies.
Both officers are former Jayhawk athletic stars.
NEW ARRIVALS AT CARLS---
Teachers of Japanese in colleges and universities throughout the United States met recently at the University of Michigan to compare notes on latest methods and techniques.
The two majorettes will be dressed in bonets and bustles while their partners will do the honors in plug hats, checkered vests and dangling handle-bar muscles.

Phi Delt's Win
Phi Delta Theta led by Bill Brill snowed under Pi Kappa Alpha by a score of 19 to 0.
The day was definitely Brill's show. He ran down field to snag three touchdown passes, and played a brilliant defensive game to top off a full afternoon.
Delta Chi, featuring triple-threat Armand Dixon, chalked up a 7 to 6 win over Delmar Green's Blanks in a hotly contested game.
Dixon dropped a long pass into the arms of John Bird to score 6 big points for the Delta Chi's. Dixon passed to Beck for the pay-off extra point.
The Blanks scored on a long pass from Delmar Green to Whitey Stannard.
Hopkins Hall Loses
John Moore Co-op scored twice on long passes to edge out Hopkins Hall 13 to 7 in a six-man game.
Morris Borene, completing 10 out of 19 passes, was the feature of the Co-op backfield. Meek played an outstanding game at end.
Scott and Bartlett scored the touchdowns for the John Moore boys. Heaston pulled one of Boreene's passes out of the ether for the extra point.
Dynan caught -one of Baringer's passes to tally the only touchdown for Hopkins. Dynan passed to Culbertson for the extra point.
An odd feature of the game was the fact that John Moore gained more yards running than they did passing. They gained 112 yards rushing compared to the 95 yards gained through the air.
Penalties cost the Hopkins boys 45 yards.
Alpha Tau Omega and the Medics battled to a 6 to 6 deadlock.
Unruh scored for the Medicies and Robb found pay dirt for ATO.

TO THE MEN STUDENTS IN THE UNIVERSITY
The imminent lowering of the draft age brings inevitable alternatives and uncertainties to your minds. Any provisions for continuing your studies, the conditions of such continuation, and its objectives have not been worked out by Federal authorities.
It is likely from information available at present that students in the eighteen-nineteen year old classification will not be disturbed until the end of the academic year.
In the meantime the War Manpower Commission has under consideration the whole problem of the war-time uses of the universities of the country, and has indicated that by January some plan will be evolved.
In a war which depends so largely upon trained men (more than sixty-three per cent of the army and a higher proportion of the navy are trained in special techniques), it seems unthinkable that higher education can or will be abandoned. The armed services require trained leaders. The universities are at their disposal.
There is, furthermore, no indication as yet that the Navy will modify its V programs, or that the ROTC program will be abandoned.
Under the circumstances, I urge each one of you to continue your studies, to give your full attention to your education and training, and to prepare yourself by every possible means at your disposal to increase through training your usefulness in the war effort.
I advise you not to abandon your program of education, thereby depriving the armed forces of your maximum abilities in leadership. The University will keep you informed, and either I or Mr. Woodruff, who is Faculty Adviser on Military Affairs, will be glad to discuss with any of you individually your own personal problems.

Editors Arrive For Conference
Editors of Kansas newspapers began arriving today for the annual conference which will be convened in the Journalism building at 8 a. m. to tomorrow.
Attendance, though not as large as last year, is beyond expectation, according to Professor Elmer Beth, program chairman. The appearance of Basil L. "Stuffy" Walters of the Minneapolis Star Journal, Frank Clough of the Washington office of censor, and Ed. Abels, Lawrence, president of the National Editorial Association, has been a big drawing power in attracting the editors at a time when transportation is difficult.
After listening to the three speakers and discussing their problems in a round-table discussion, the editors will eat luncheon at the Kansan room of the Union building and attend the football game as guests of the University.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1942

The Band Plays Out
At a meeting Wednesday members of the University band decided, almost without argument, that they would not appear at the Kansas-Kansas State football game in Manhattan on October 24.
Their personal justification for such action: that they would have to miss the Freshman Frolic that night; and that they had been informed that they would probably have to stand up on the train ride home.
That University students, not to mention the football team, will condone such action is doubtful. The band members may feel that their reasons for not going are just, but they should not overlook the fact that, as an official University body, they have a definite responsibility toward that University and her students.
Many of those students, in spite of the Frolic are going to the Manhattan game. They will expect to see their band there. They will be disappointed if it is not.
The football players are going, too. True, they have not much choice in the matter—as the band evidently does—but their efforts in the game deserve some appreciation—and a lot of support. Without the band, that support will be somewhat lacking.
In past years, Russell L. Wiley, band director, has taken immense satisfaction in saying "We have never let the team down." Is that pride worth nothing now? The band has played through rain, snow, sleet, and mud—and missed other Freshman Frolics—just to back up their team. Is not this year's team deserving of such consideration?
This is not a personal matter. School spirit and school unity are involved. In the past, the University has been proud of her band, and rightly so. That feeling, however, could change, even on so slight a provocation as this.
If the game were at Ames or Columbia, we would not object, because of transportation difficulties, but with Manhattan so close and with the Kansas-Kansas State rivalry so keen, we feel that the band is showing a definite lack of cooperation in not turning out in full force.
In spite of tire difficulties and impending gasoline rationing, there are yet more than one hundred student-owned cars on the Hill. Surely some of them could be utilized for the band members' transportation.
The football team plays on, but it appears that the University band has played out.
It "Listens" Well
The price will be high and the road to peace will be wrought with bitter experiences and anxious moments, but the poor people of Britain and Europe actually will profit from this war.
Bombers of both the United Nations and the Axis have dumped tons of explosives on the vital areas of the enemy, especially on such strategic points as railroad terminals and factories. These bombs have brought death and destruction to the homes of innocent people.
Death is irreparable—but the hovels in which many European families have been forced to live by economic circumstances and which now lie in total ruins will never be rebuilt. Some of these so-called homes were one

room fire traps, ill-lighted, poorly ventilated and poorly heated.
After the war, if present plans are realized, these slums will be replaced by modern apartments. The best knowledge of twentieth-century architects will be used to make homes fit for the working class to live in.
Women who haven't known what it is to live comfortably may cook with modern ranges and keep pasteurized milk in gas or electric refrigerators. These apartments will be planned so that youngsters will have tree-shaded parks in which to play.
That is the way visionary planners see it; It "listens" well; the question that is raised in the minds of many sociologists is: Will these people know how to live in modern homes? Will persons who all their lives have shared a single room with six or seven other people and a family pet know how to accustom themselves to their new environment?
Or will they continue to live as they did, only in new surroundings. Not only must new homes be built for bombed-out families in Europe after the war; a new and better way of life must be constructed for them.

As before, the old tradition prevails and the K men will conduct all freshman boys on the Hill down Mount Oread to South Park for a giant rally and refreshments. Naturally, paddles will accompany and even assist the frosh.
It has been rumored that several freshmen without caps were not able to sit down in the 10:20 classes the other morning.

In Miss Babcock's trigonometry class one morning, she was commenting on the lack of one student's algebraic background.
"When did you take Algebra?" she asked disgustedly, "Who was your teacher?"
In fiendish glee the student answered, "You were, ma'm, you were." * * * * *
The Pi Phi's received a letter yesterday addressed to the president of the house from two second lieutenants of the army air corps in Topeka. It seems that these two boys wanted to come down to the Oklahoma-Kansas game Saturday and asked the Fi Phi's to buy tickets for them. They also hoped that two girls in the house, preferably dark-eyed brunettes, would attend the game with them.
The odd part of all this is that enclosed in the letter was a check, one boy's signature at the bottom with the amount left blank. They left it to the girls to fill in the correct amount, and if some girls would go with them, to pay for as many tickets as needed.
Trusting souls, these army men.

Rationing Hits County Clubs
Emphasis will be placed upon the correspondence committee this year in the work of the Statewide Activities committee, with the function on the county clubs being reduced to a minimum, it was announced today by John Kreamer, chairman of the committee.
The change is being made because of the tire and fuel situation and the short Christmas vacation, Kreamer said. Hitherto, the county clubs have played the larger part in the activities of the committee by visiting the high schools in their respective communities and telling the students about the University. This year, however, releases from the correspondence committee will take their place.
The correspondence committee and the county clubs will be organized this week. Kreamer said. Anyone wishing to do correspondence work should get in touch with Max Webster, chairman of the correspondence committee. Students interested in being in a county club should call Kreamer.

Frazier Uses Kansas Clay In 'The Fractious One'
Kansas clay is being used by Bernard "Poco" Frazier, instructor of architecture and design, in a competitive sculpture intended to maintain his title as the winner of the Ceramics Division of the Western Hemisphere contest.
Ceramic art is increasing rapidly in the states, Frazier explained. Even before priorities on metals began, ceramic exhibits doubled and tripled. Kansas yields a variety of kinds and colors of clay, and when properly used, the pastel colors provide infinite color possibilities. The
The difference in clay colors will not be noticeable until after the sculpture has been fired. The glass glaze to be used on "The Fractional One" is one formulated by Norman Plummer in the geological survey at the University. The principal ingredient of the new glaze is volcanic ash blown from the Rocky Mountains and deposited in western Kansas.

Night Shirt Paraders Free Show at Granada
Stan Schwahn of the Lawrence theaters announced this morning that his special show for Night Shirt Paraders at 11:15 tonite tops any previous free show that he has given to university students. Schwahn has been giving free midnight shows at the Granada for Night Shirt Paraders every year for the past eight years or ever since the Granada opened. In addition to the special screen program there will be plenty of action on the stage according to Schwahn. Night Shirt Paraders are especially invited to attend this free show.
"The Fractious One" differs last year's winning ceramic. 'Tier now uses a mixture of four different clays found in Kansas. For the most part, the material comes from the campus and Niles. As a result of mixing clays from Miltonville and Ellsworth, the tail and mane of the wild horse will have an apriot color. The body of the horse will be red clay.

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
Iowa State students will have no Thanksgiving vacation this year. However the Christmas vacation is being lengthened three days in the patriotic move to place the college on a more practical war-time basis.
Thanksgiving day will be given holiday observance and all classes will be canceled. Final examinations will end in the middle of the week on Dec. 16 instead of Dec. 19. The move is also designed to turn loose the vacation traffic in the middle of the week instead of adding it to the crowded conditions that prevail on the week end before Christmas.
Sooners Definitely On Foot
"It will mean a two-week vacation if some jelly bean comes to school with a flashy car and some of the girls who are silly enough to chase him, ride in that car," according to Floyd Wright, chairman of the car committee and professor of law at the University of Oklahoma. Students may hitchhike rides home without violating the regulation. If, however, the student should be turned in when seen in the car leaving Norman, he must be able to prove to the car committee that he had a ride home.
Anything goes if a parent is in the car with the student. The two-week suspension will apply if a student rides with an out-of town visitor who is not a parent.
Scrap Scavanged At Berkeley
Two hundred fraternity men at the University of California spent a hard day recently careening about town in army trucks, confiscating everything from bracelets to neon signs.
The townpeople, who usually protest at fraternity scavenger hunts had nothing but praise for the army of university volunteers who collected more than 500 tons of scrap metal piled on corners throughout the community.

Science, Engineering Essential
Brig. Gen. M. G. White told the committee that the army has already formulated a plan to continue special work for students after their induction into the army. Such a plan would probably be along the lines followed during the first World War, when students became members of the Student Army Training Corps. Medicine, chemistry, and engineering courses are considered most essential by the military forces.
Deferment for students may be on grounds of merit in studies. Maj.Gen Lewis B. Hershey, selective service director, has opposed over-all deferment of college men under the present reserve system, and a compromise may be effected whereby those with highest grades or most promise would be permitted to continue their studies.
Object to Blanket Deferment
Chief objection to blanket deferment of college men has been that it grants privileges to those who could afford to go to college as against many

If You Cut Your Work
From 8 a. m. to 5 p. m., Monday through Saturday, week in and week out, there is a small group of men working at Bloomington. One or two of these men are constantly digging into bed rock with air drills. The others are busy destroying the slabs with picks. Occasionally a truck stops outside to carry away the piles of chipped rock.
The workers are Indiana University ROTC students who are making up deficiencies in military credit by helping in the construction of the rifle range for ROTC use in the basement of the University school. Upon its completion, the range will have 14 targets. Until then, it is an hour's labor for an hour's class of military that they cut.

EVANS IS HOPE---tion of the team, Otto Schnellbacher, pass catching wingman. Schnellbacher will probably replace George Dick at the right end position, coach Gwinn Henry said today.
Schnellbacher and Evans are claimants now to the title of the outstanding pass throwing and receiving combinations in the nation, and the statistics of the American Football Statistical bureau provide a good argument for the claims of their backers.
Evans tops the passers of the entire nation in the number of tosses completed, with 48 for four games this season. He also rates second in the yardage gained by passing department with 492 yards. Schnellbacher is tied for the leadership in the number of passes received this fall with 14, and leads in the number of yards gained as a receiver with 210 yards.
The sophomore end's record is made all the more remarkable by the fact that he has yet to start a game. He is expected to be in the lineup tomorrow, however, from the opening gun, and will probably serve again as Evan's favorite target. Schnellbacher caught seven of Evans' passes against Texas Christian, alone.
Center Undecided
The remainder of the Kansas line-up will be the same that has faced the previous four opponents. Center duty will once again be divided between Junius Penny and Bob Githens. Penny will get the starting call if Kansas receives the opening kickoff, while Githens will start if the Jayhawks do the kicking off.

skirmishes of the season without scoring a touchdown. Featured once again will be the forward wall, one of the toughest lines in the Big Six. The Sooner forward wall averages 199 pounds per man, and is made up entirely of lettermen from last year's Sooner squad.
"The Mystery of Marie Roget"
In the backfield, Coach Dewey "Snorter" Luster is expected to make a shift so that he can use both fullbacks, Huel Hamm and Eddie Davis, in the same backfield, and thus, perhaps, find some of the punch the Sooners have been lacking. Rounding out the starting lineup for the Oklahoma team in the backfield will probably be the veteran Pat Shanks and the ace blocking man, Bill Campbell. Campbell has been one of the shining lights of the Sooner squad this fall.
Sooner Line Strong
The Jayhawkers are expected to pin their scoring hopes principally upon their aerial game, as the big Sooner line last week held the powerful Texas Longhorn running attack well under control, but faltered when the Texans took to the air.

LATEST NEWS
The Sooner backfield last week showed flashes of power, which may bode ill for the Kansas line. Don Fauble, Shanks, Hamm, Bill Mattto, and Boone Baker all broke through the Texas line for occasional gains, but the Longhorn forward wall stiffened when the Sooners approached paydirt, and each time managed to turn them back.
Meet For 40th Time
In reserve power the Sooners will hold a great advantage over the Jayhawks, especially in backfield material where Luster is well supplied. Linquist and Frosty Wilson, standout this week in Kansas practice sessions, will probably carry the burden of the Kansas substitute service.
However, it has been five years since Kansas downed the Sooners. In 1937 the Jayhawks nosed out Oklahoma 6 to 3, and the man largely responsible for that win, Dick Amerine,
will be in the stands in his U. S. Mar-

Sooners Win In Second Half Push
By J. Donald Keown, Kansan Sports Editor
A plucky Kansas Jayhawk squad finally cracked in the second half of yesterday's game at Memorial Stadium, and the Oklahoma Sooners rolled to a 25 to 0 triumph.
A stubborn Kansas line, aided by the first indication of a ground attack the Jayhawks have shown this year, succeeded through most of the first half in keeping the hard-running Sooners at Bay. However, the visitors finally found paydirt in the second quarter with but one minute of play remaining. They
period, and tallied their final touchdown in the fourth quarter of play.
Standing out in the Sooner victory were two ramming fullbacks,
71
HUEL HAMM OF OKLAHOMA
Huel Hamm and Eddie Davis. Hamm had but this week been transferred to quarterback position by coach Dewey Luster, so that the Sooners could benefit from the combined running power of the Oklahoma City boy and Davis.
Davis scored the first Sooner touchdown from the five-yard line, after a pass from Hamm to Mattox had put the ball in scoring position. Another Hamm to Mattox toss was good for the second touchdown, with but one minute of play gone in the third period.
Davis plowed over for the third touchdown from the one-yard line, after another pass from the unstoppable Hamm had placed the ball deep in Jayhawk territory. Hamm slipped off tackle in the final quarter to dash five yards for the last Sooner touchdown.
Baker Looks Good
In the line it was Junius Penny (continued to page five)
For Kansas it was once again Ray Evans in the backfield. Evans experienced his poorest day this fall in the passing department, but turned in an outstanding defensive and running game. He received assistance from quarterback Hoyt Baker, who replaced the injured Harlan Altman in the starting lineup, and Ed Linquist, who played despite the handcap of an injury suffered in the TCU game. Baker appeared at times to be the broken-field runner the Jayhawks have needed so badly all season.

Dr. Raymond C Moore leaves for the army next Friday, Kansas loses its state geologist, at least two committees of the national geological council bid good-bye to their chairman, the Kansas Chapter of Sigma Psi, national scientific research fraternity sacrifices a president and the University finds itself minus a respected staff member of 26 years service.
Worked with Minerals
Although the geology professor has been a member of the Engineering Reserve Corps since 1929. Friday will mark the beginning of his first real military experiences. During the last World War he did war minerals work for the treasury department and served as an instructor in the SATC (1916 equivalent of present day ROTC) but was never really "in the army."
Since the present conflict opened, he has devoted much of his time to war pursuits, particularly to locating new supplies of oil, gas, and coal, but his energies have never been so completely mobilized for

House Approves Teen-Age Draft; Back To Senate
Washington—The House passed the bill calling for the drafting of 18 and 19-year-old men for military service yesterday afternoon and the bill now goes to the Senate. An amendment to require a year's training before active service was defeated 212 to 42, and an attempt to limit the age to 19 years was defeated 155 to 55. Senate approval is expected.
Military leaders opposed quite strongly the attempts to provide for a year's training before the teenage draftees would be sent into active service, asserting that this would be tying their hands in the successful prosecution of the war.
The bill provides, however, that no one would be taken into service before the end of June, 1943. An additional recommendation that unmarried men in the general draft be taken before married men met approval of the House.
A joint committee of the House and Senate working on the tax bill recommended a heavy tax on corporate and personal incomes, and on liquor and tobacco.

Nearly a hundred Kansas editors dropped their pencils and covered their typewriters yesterday to discuss their war-time problems in the annual Kansas Editors' Day at the University. Leaving their desks in the midst of the newspaper-promoted scrap drive, the editors heard Frank Clough, one of the men who direct the voluntary press censorship plan in the United

The Nightshirt Parade may be tradition to the student body at large, but for the freshmen, the Ku Ku's, K-Men, and any innocent bystanders who may be caught in the scuffle it is madness, mayhem, and murder on the hoof.
It was open season on single Ku-Ku's with paddles, and many were the splintered instruments of authority that lay strewn across the streets when the parade had passed on its way. With shouts of "Paddle! Paddle!" and other unintelligible war cries that resembled nothing so much as the rebel shouts that heralded the Confederate army in the Civil war, the freshmen in their flapping nightshirts and variegated pajamas finally reached the scene of the rally in South Park.
With recalcitrant freshmen mobbing the Ku Ku's at the slightest provocation—sometimes the sight of a paddle was enough to set them off, the feel of it enough to get them back in line- the doormoor its tortuous $ \textcircled{1} $
Must Call at Hospital For X-Ray Reports
Reports on the chest x-rays taken of new students at Watkins Memorial hospital Sept. 22 to 30 are ready, Dr. R. I. Canuteson, director of the University health service, has announced. Students may obtain these reports by calling in person at the hospital during regular clinic hours. Organized groups wishing to obtain reports must select a representative, who must present authorization from all persons v'om the reports are intended.
Food handlers should not call at the hospital for reports, he said, as these reports will be sent to the individuals by the Douglas county health service.
States, assert that it is the right and duty of every editor to be a "typewriter strategist."
Kansas Editors' Day, sponsored by the department of journalism, was begun at 8 o'clock in the morning by registration in the Journalism building. From 9 to 10:30 a.m. a "wrangle session," which featured impromptu discussions on topics closest to the interests of the editors took place in room 102.
The totalitarian concept of censorship was compared with that of the United States by Basil "Stuffy" Walters, executive editor of the Minneapolis Star-Journal and Tribune.
Ed Abels, president of the National Editorial Association. greeted the editors and opened the formal portion of the program. Abels emphasized the importance of the country press. The overwhelming success of the scrap drive, he said, demonstrated the power of the country press as never before. The government today wants and is asking for the support of that power.

Convocation Tuesday To Explain Reserves
There will be a convocation for students in the reserve corps of any of the armed forces Tuesday morning at 10:30 in Hoch auditorium.
An advisory board composed of Maj. Russell L. Stephens of the US Army, and representatives from the army air force, the navy, and the naval aviation service, and the marine corps will be at the University for three days this week to answer questions about the reserve corps of the various services.
Students who are interested in the reserve having 10:30 classes will be excused to hear the convocation speakers. The purpose of the convocation is to acquaint students with the functions and programs of the armed forces, qualifications for enlistment, and training. No enlistments will be made at this time.
Individual conferences with one or all of these board members may be obtained Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday afternoon in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building. Representatives of the women's armed forces will not be present, but women may attend the convocation.

Pan-American League To Be Organized Here
Antonio F. Lulli, Peruvian student here preparing for the diplomatic-service, has announced plans for the formation of a local branch of the international Pan-American League.
Senior Lulli has been appointed by the League headquarters as organizer of college and university leagues throughout this portion of the United States. He has recently begun the organization of similar chapters at* the University of Minnesota [the executive headquarter] at Kansas College in Illinois.
zation of similar chapters is the University of Minnesota and at Knox college in Illinois
The Pan-American League is an international organization, administered by an executive board of which the international president is
The purpose behind the formation of these leagues is to bridge the gap of language, the differences of race and psychology, of customs and courtesy through knowledge and understanding, and by education to establish a closer relationship between the nations of the two Americas. Lulli points out that since national security has become a matter of hemisphere defense it becomes essential for the people of the Americas to quickly arrive at an understanding of one another's character and culture in order that the governmental agreements may have the strength of sympathetic peoples.

'Cornelius' No Ghost Pin Authentic
By Tom Cadden
"Shucks! No ghosts after all."
The shroud of mystery that surrounded what appeared to be an uncanny piece of "ghost-work" has been removed.
The mystery: about two weeks ago, Colleen Poorman, college senior, reported the loss of her Mortar board pin, after
attending an MSC-WSGA dinner in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building.
The following morning, the janitor found a pin in the room in which she believed she had lost hers. But this pin had the name of "Cornelius" on it. After a bit of checking up, the report was made that there had never been a "Cornelius" who belonged to the Mortar Board society at the University.
Things looked sorta "spooky."
The Solution—The pin did belong
to Colleen!
The pin did belong to "Cornelius!" "Cornelius" was a student here! There are no ghosts . . . (at least in this case)!
The ghost-rummer prompted a little research and revealed after a thorough digging in the record files, that "Conelius" was a student here and a very-much-alive student.
Jane Cornelius, an outstanding student, received her degree in nursing in 1933 at the University. In 1932-33 she was a member of the Mortar-Board society, national organization for senior women which is based on scholarship, leadership, service to the University, and character.
After her graduation, she entered the French Institute of Notre Dame De Sion in Kansas City, Mo. Then she left for Paris, France to enter convent of the same sisterhood.
Recently, the Mortar Board society received Miss Cornelius's pin which she donated to the chapter in her memory.
From there, it is easy to be seen that Miss Poorman had received the honor of wearing the pin and it was this same pin which she lost.
Now the only part of the mystery that remains unsolved is the whereabouts of Miss Cornelius at the present time. The alumni office was unable to give any information.

Pattern Art Illustrates MediaRange
Pictures now on exhibit in Dyche museum by Karl Mattern, associate professor of drawing and painting, illustrate the range of techniques and moods of the artist.
The visitor who has seen Mr. Mattern's shows during the last two or three years will notice a change in the artist's technique. The subjects in a number of his paintings are treated to accentuate pure color and simplified form.
The red used in "Greenwich Village" reveals the beginning of his changing technique. Colors are brighter and nearer the pure hue. Simplified and accentuated patterns and shapes of bright colors are dominant in "Underpass," "Figure Piece," and "Display Signs." "Bareback Rider" is a suggestion of a circus in patterns of white, blue, and pink.
In other pictures, the artist expresses himself in his older style. Colors are not as brilliant, shapes are not drawn so vigorously. Subdued, softer shades and gentle moods are used in such pictures as "Girl at the Typewriter," "The River," "Flowers," and memory scenes of Kansas.
Kansans will recognize the herd of horses and old fashioned barn as a familiar scene, and University students and Lawrence citizens will appreciate the scene of the bridge and Kaw river.
There is only one lithograph in the show, but "Oil and Corn" is another example of the artist's range of media. An oil tanker steaming by a snow-covered stubble field is a pleasing picture in black and white.

Mineral Resources Building
MINERAL RESOURCE
Completion of the new mineral resources building so that it may be occupied by students in January, was predicted this week by University authorities. The building will house the departments of geology,
petroleum engineering, mining and metallurgical engineering, and the Kansas Geological Survey. The exceptional research facilities provided here will be important to the industrial development of the state in the
exploitation of its natural resources. For the duration of the war, the building's facilities will serve as a test and control laboratory for munitions and other war plants in the Middle West.
Clough Checks In Meets Deadline
Mr. Clough left Washington at 6:30 p. m. Thursday "to allow plenty of time for a good night's rest" he said. He had reservations on the National Limited all the way through to Lawrence.
Trouble began a few miles from Washington when the train was stopped owing to floods. Mr. Clough said the Limited backed up and started on a number of tracks before it finally
Fording floods, missing trains, and forced hitchhiking could not deter Frank C. Clough, an official in the Office of the Censor in Washington, from reaching his destination—the Journalism building. He arrived yesterday morning at 11:29 to address the Kansas editors at 11:30 at their annual editor's conference.
got through. When he awoke at 8:30 a.m. Friday, he was but 252 miles on his way and $16 \frac{1}{2}$ hours late.
Arriving in St. Louis Friday at 1 p.m., Clough was one and one-half hour late for his transfer reservation, and was forced to change his ticket to another train. The train was so crowded he had to stand up almost all the way to Kansas City. The train from Kansas City to Lawrence was only one-half hour late.
Mr. Clough had troubles in Lawrence too. Unable to find a taxi at the station and with not enough time to wait for one, he rushed to a car containing two men that was marked KU and procured a ride up the hill, an hour late on the program schedule, but not too late to deliver his speech.

War Camouflage Class Takes First Field Trip To Practice Disguise

Members of the class will assemble at 2:30 p.m., in front of Marvin hall.
Professor Jones went to Topeka Thursday where he addressed the Topeka Women's club, and students in the art department of Washburn Municipal university on the subject of "Camouflage." Jones was elected by the University to attend the government school on camouflage held last June at Ft. Belvoir, Va.

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
---
No team is taking intramural football more seriously this fall than Hopkins Hall, which has something of a standard to maintain. The house was originally intended as a residence for varsity football men, and at present no less than 10 varsity and fresh players reside there. Upon the other men at the house falls the task of keeping the football standard up in intramural competition. The colorful Hoppers have at present won one game and lost one in six-man competition. At quarterback Phil "Secooper" Dynan operates, and is one of the most dangerous passing stars in intramurals. Dynan was formerly a gunner with the Ferry Command, and has a German plane to his credit. He takes his intramural football just as seriously, as he did his gunning. Hopkins Hall was named the first Jayhawk football coach.
*****
The Kansas line apparently played hob with Mr. Emery Nix, TCU ace, at Ft. Worth, for the Horned Frog star took a big tumble in his ground yardage average. Nix dropped from third to fourth in the Southwest conference standings in that department. He had previously carried the ball 38 times, and gained 223 yards. Against the Jayhawkers, he lugged the leather seven times, and picked up but 16 yards. Little Dean Bagley increased his punting average, however, bringing it up to 42.1 yards per boot. In passing, Nix is now fourth in the conference, and Bagley ninth in yards gained through the air. Montgomery of the Horned Frogs is seventh in total points scored with 13 points, all of them pushed over against Kansas.

Those Beta's appear to be the team to beat in intramural football, but there are plenty of other squads who may do just that thing . . . The spirit shown at the Nighshirt Parade rally was encouraging to both the coaching staff and team members. Freshman spirit did not seem to be affected in the least by the recent losses . . . It's K-State next week, and anybody's guess as to the outcome is as good as the next person's . . .

Pachacamac Smoker Tonight In Union
The smoker is held to acquaint new men students with the members and policies of the party. A student council member and class officers will be selected from this group.
The annual Pachacamac freshman smoker will be held at 7:30 tonight in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building. Principal speakers will be Vernon McKale, president of the MSC, Fred Coulson, president of the Pachacamac party, and Gene Whetstone, former student at the University.
Faculty Will Conduct Extension Classes In Service Training
Regular extension classes in service training, organized by the University, started yesterday in Topeka and Kansas City, Mo.
Members of the University faculty will go to these centers and teach regular classes giving two or three hours credit.
Representatives from the University are J. W. Twente, C. B. Althaus, Bert Nash, R. A. Schwegler, A. H. Turney, F. O. Russell, F. P. O'Brien, and T. L. Collier, all of the school of Education; R. S.

Petroleum Vital To Synthetic Rubber Adams Tells Club
"The oil industry," said Roy Adams, instructor of chemistry who spoke at the chemistry club meeting Friday, "stands above all others in relation to cost and importance in the manufacture of synthetic rubber."
Gas rationing, for which all drivers which must register on Nov. 9, is a result of insufficient transportation facilities and not a result of gasoline shortage, Adams pointed out. Production of aviation gasoline and constituents of TNT are two other outstanding accomplishments of the petroleum industry since our entrance in the war 10 months ago. Adams stated that, indirectly, fifty per cent of today's wage earners are research workers.
Kissell Leads Phi Psi's to Victory
With Max Kissell leading the way with his sensational passing the strong Phi Psi overwhelmed Kappa Sigma yesterday morning 20 to 0 in their second intramural football fray.
The undefeated Phi Psi team looked like a powerhouse all the way with Bob Siddons, Ralph Dockstader, Miller, and Kissell standing out in the victory. Dole and Forney played their usual fine game and their Kappa Sig teammates fought back hard, but they were no match for the faster Phi Psi boys. The Kappa Sigma line leaked against the powerful onslaught, while Phi Psi's line seemed undentable.
Theta Tau downed Sigma Phi Epsilon in their game yesterday with an 8 to 0 score. It was the best game of the day with both teams playing their hearts out.
The Blanks, led by Del Green's passing, downed a stubborn Rock Chalk Co-op crew 12 to 0 in a game that had been postponed from a previous date.
Otto Teichgraeber and Larry Stream of the Sig Ep team were the game's stars, but could not match the all-around performances of the Theta Tau squad. Stream was injured in the game.

Send Telephoto Shots of Game
Acme Newspictures, Inc., yesterday sent action pictures of the Kansas-Oklahoma football game in what was believed to be the first time that direct telephoto service has been operated on the Hill.
Operating a portable unit attached to a direct line to Ft. Worth, Texas, the company provided spot pictures for this morning's papers all over the nation. Taking photos during the first half, Bill Humphrey, manager of the company's Kansas City branch, and his assistant, Joe Russo, developed them in the darkroom of the Daily Kansan, and sent them over the wire from wet negatives. Using four by five inch plates, it took from seven to eight minutes to telephoto one print.
Humphrey said that Bert Brandt, University graduate and former Acme manager at Kansas City, has been transferred to Washington, D. C. Humphrey remarked that it was a very desirable spot, since all pictures taken in war zones and of military subjects must be checked by censors in Washington, where they are telephotoed.

French Leads Whites in Frosh Squad Game
Freshman football squadmen held their second inter-team game Friday and the Whites led by Bud French were victorious by a 6 to 0 score.
Playing scoreless for three quarters. the Whites finally rallied following an interception by their brilliant halfback, Bud French. Three plays later a Pierce to French pass gave the Whites their score.
Standouts in the White backfield were French, White, and Pierce, while the Golds were led by big John Dewell's line plunges, which were always good for four or five yards. Dewell, usually an exceptional punter, was having difficulty in booting his usual distance. Coffin, a two year all-state quarterback from Independence, and Waldecker, state sprint champion from Hutchinson, added yardage to the Gold's total by their around end plays.
In the lines, stellar performances were turned in by Keller, Churchhill, and Taylor Brady for the Golds, and Wilson, Riegel, and Capito for the winners. Capito played the outstanding defensive game in the line, throwing back the Gold's Dewell for three consecutive plays when the Golds had a first down with goal to go after Dewell's interception of a pass thrown by Pierce.

His tackling was vicious, and he repeatedly brought down Sooner runners just as they seemed destined to break out into the open field. Warren Hodges, Jayhawk game captain, also turned in a fine performance as Oklahoma plungers bounced back time and time again as they tried his position.
Paul Hardman turned in his best game of the season at the right end post.

Injuries to Jayhawk players were frequent, with Schnell-bacher, Baker, Penny, and Dick all leaving the game with injuries of various degrees.

sive fashion. Hamm was forced to punt, however, and his kick went over the goal.
Evans immediately whipped a beautiful pass to Hardman for 22 yards. The Kansas attack then bogged down, however, and Evans punted. On their third down the Sooners lost 15 yards on a bad snapback from center. Davis punted to Baker who ran the ball back beautifully to midfield.
Pass Is Completed
Kansas could not gain and was forced to punt. On the first Sooner play Mattox dashed 12 yards around end. The next three plays failed to gain, however, and Hamm punted deep into Kansas territory. Evans promptly broke loose for a 28-yard run around left end. Two plays later an Evans pass bounced off Schnellbacher into the arms of Hamm.
After Oklahoma had punted, Linquist and Sherwood ripped off a first down for the Kansas squad on the Sooner 46-yard line. Evans, who was rushed fast all day on passing plays and received poor blocking from his mates, was dropped for a 13-yard loss as he could not find a receiver.
In Sooner Territory
Evans opened the second quarter by punting out of bounds on the Sooner 17-yard line. A penalty set the Sooners back, and Hamm had to punt. Baker and Linquist racked up a first down, and the ball was again in Oklahoma territory. Evans then clicked with a pass to Hardman and the Jayhawks were on the Sooner 34-yard line. Three plays failed to gain, however, and Evans was again forced to punt.
Shanks and Evans exchanged punts, with the Sooners gaining. Shanks then broke loose for a first down. The Kansas line then stiffened, and Shanks again punted. After Evans had kicked back to his own 46-yard line, the Oklahoma squad began to roll.
Boone Baker ran five yards, and then Hamm dropped back, took his time, and whipped a pass to Mattox who raced to the Kansas 19. Mattox and Hamm made it a first down on the Kansas 7-yard line, and two plays later Devis went over. Hamm failed to kick the extra point. The half ended in a flurry of incomplete Kansas passes.
Mattox Scores
Oklahoma wasted little time in the second half. Davis ran the kickoff back to his 35-yard line, and on the next play dashed off tackle for 15 yards. Hamm then passed to Mattox on the Oklahoma 23-yard line, and the Sooner back sidestepped Evans, and raced on for the tally. Davis failed to kick the extra point.
Kansas failed to gain after receiving the kickoff, and punted. Oklahoma followed suit, and a punting duel followed between Evans and the brilliant Hamm. Midway in the period Hamm and Davis sparked a Sooner drive to the Jayhawk five yard line. There big Warren Hodges twice stopped the hard-driving Hamm, before a penalty set the visitors back. On the next play,

A penalty and an Evans to Schnellbacher pass was good for a first down. Oklahoma then held, and Evans punted. Davis reeled off a first down into Kansas territory. Hamm passed to MacDonald, who was brought down from behind by the fleet Evans. Two plays later, however, Davis scored. Hamm converted.

As the fourth period began, Kansas was unable to gain after receiving the kickoff. Evans punted to Son Wright who ran the ball back brilliantly to his 39-yard line. Hamm passed to Tyrese for a first down. Cawthon and Hamm then added another on the ground. Wright broke loose for five yards,
and Hamm passed to Cawton on the Jayhawk 14-yard line.
Hamm smashed at the Kansas line four times, and on the final trial bounced off tackle to score. Steele failed to kick the extra point.
Sophomore Stars
Kansas received the kickoff, and Evans passed to Schnellbacher for a first down. A penalty and Evans' running brought another first down. Evans' passes slipped through the fingers of the intended receivers, however, and the former Wyandotte ace was forced to punt. Sophomore Don Fauble plunged twice for an Oklahoma first down. He then collaborated with Baker and Cawthon for another. He then faded back and shot a pass to Andrews in Kansas territory.
After two incomplete passes, Fauble and Cawthon raced around the ends for a first down. Two more Fauble passes were incomplete, however, and then substitute back Kenneth Adams intercepted one of the sophomore's tosses on the Kansas 16-yard line and raced it back into Oklahoma territory. The game ended with Evans passing in vain.
The winners held a 16 to 8 margin in first downs, 11 of which were racked up in the second half. Oklahoma also led in total yards gained, 333 to 144.
Ball Is Slippery
Evans' passing was hindered by the fast charging Sooner ends, eratic receiving on the part of his teammates, and a ball that was sometimes very slippery.

Commentary by the KANSAN Editorials * Features * Patter
Plans for Tomorrow
While we are embroiled in war today, we must not lose sight of the fact that tomorrow peace will come. The task of making it enduring peace will rest squarely upon our shoulders.
Clarence K. Streit, noted journalist and writer who spoke here Tuesday, is so thoroughly convinced of this that he is devoting full time to a plan which he thinks will solve post-war peace problems.
With the magnanimity and idealism of a Woodrow Wilson, tempered with the rationalism of a Joseph Stalin, Streit has conceived a world union of all the democracies now to facilitate the winning of the war and to form the nucleus of peace plans after the war.
By uniting now, we can save millions of lives by hastening the end of the struggle; by uniting now, we can have machinery for a lasting peace ready to roll into action with the armistice. World War I found the democracies unprepared for peace in 1919; it took two or three years of floundering to devise a poorly laid peace.
With an international union of the democracies, having no tariffs, common currency, a common postal system, and most of all common citizenship, Streit's proposed organization would establish a working arrangement of peace before peace comes. Ultimately all the nations of the world would become members of this federation—but only after great postwar schisms and racial wounds have been closed.
Streit proposes an international congress, members being chosen from representative nations on a basis of population, to govern the union. Not overlooking the fact that there will always be at least petty struggles among factions, Streit realizes there must be a standing army to quell any such uprisings which might occur.
No plan for post-war planning is perfect; most of them are too altruistic, too idealistic; while Streit's seems idealistically inclined, he has not overlooked in his plan the realities of a post-war world of hatred and resentment. We must act on some such proposal today, if we are to have enduring peace tomorrow.
Young Soldiers When Needed
Both the house and senate military committees have approved a bill providing for the drafting of youths 18 and 19 years of age, and the measure is expected to go before the House for quick passage tomorrow.
Congressmen are commenting on the remarkable absence of protests from their constituents. Written protests are absent because the majority of the American people are convinced of the necessity of the move. A question which still remains to be answered, however, in the minds of millions of U.S. citizens is "Why is it being done NOW?" They want to know why a similar bill was not passed soon after Pearl Harbor, or else not at all.
The answer lies in the mechanics of a democracy going to war, and the lack of omniscience on the part of democratic leaders. In the first place, the United States has not had adequate training facilities for the seven million men
Just Wondering
While our soldiers and sailors are doing what they can for our country, too many labor leaders appear to be doing the country for what they can.
now deemed necessary by selective service director Major General Lewis B. Hershey.
We have not had the guns, tanks, planes, and ammunition for these men to fight with. We have not had the ships to transport them to the far-flung battle grounds. We have not known until recently the available man-power, nor the number of 1-A men who would have to be used in war industries and on farms.
War Manpower Director Paul V. McNutt now has most of the vital figures at his finger tips. He knows how many men of fighting caliber there are in this country. He knows how many are going to be needed on the production front. He knows that we are going to need seven million men in the armed forces by the end of 1943. This is the first time since the war began that we have had complete comprehension of the manpower grounds upon which we stand.
The present action of Congress explodes the criticisms thrown in the past few months that our legislators were "putting it off" until after election—more interested in their own political future than in the welfare of their warring nation. Now Congress is taking an action it deems necessary, and as soon as appeared to them to be practical.

Rock Chalk Talk BETTY LOU PERRINS
Al Martinek, ATO pledge, was trying to wake John Bradley the other morning and put his face directly into Bradley's. Bradley, on waking and seeing Martinek so close, shouted, "Get that repulsive thing out of here."
The next morning Martinek again woke Bradley. This time when Bradley opened his eyes, he gave a shriek and looked again. Martinek, seeking revenge, had found a gruesome Hallowe'en mask and put it over his face.
Bradley has given up having freshmen wake him.

After spending a couple of hours on the question, they settled for a package of cigarettes.

Co-ed Commandos

"And then at 1:30 I have commando training." This is stock blind date dope. The odds are 20 to 1 that at some time or another every freshman on the Hill has given out with it and that every male frosh has exclaimed over same. All on a blind date.
The reason for the phrases popularity is obvious. Halfway through any sight unseen en-
firmation of a movie and coke unaffected, shrill voice he exclaims,
The reason for the phrase through any sight unseen engagement for movie and coke—usually when the parties concerned are battling their way up some slope of Mt. Oread to a jelly joint, the point arrives when the weather, freshman indignities and little moron activities are exhausted completely as subjects of conversation.
At this precise point the male customarily says to the female, "And what kind of a schedule do you have this year?"
Following a long list of hours, classes and comments, it comes out. "And then at 1:30 (or any of six other hours of the day) I have commando training." Sir college freshman who has been fighting a losing battle to maintain interest and animation, slips on the average 10 feet in a backward direction on the slope. Voice inflections no longer need to be forced. Nine times out of 10 he is honestly amazed. In an
unaffected, shrill voice he exclaims,

Bring on Obstacle Course "No kiddin! Freshmen co-eds are really being physically toughened by the war-torn world. Already they say walking up Fourteenth is easier. Some even swear that they'll be ready to take the famous obstacle course in several weeks, if the gruelling training continues. And it will.
The University isn't going to let up and the girls can't. If they lose interest to the extent of six cuts they get kicked clean out of the University and no one wants that. Not with Jan Savitt coming up for the freshman fricole and two whole school days off for Christmas.
On that blind date the coed probably gives out a pretty good story but the training of which she speaks can't be truly appreciated unless viewed by the curious from a crack in one of Robinson's con-

Sod House Soon Ready As Experimental Station
The east wing of the experiment station for the School of Engineering will be ready for use within the next two weeks, Dean J. J. Jakosky said yesterday. It will be occupied by the department of aeronautics, and will house the staff for aeronautical engineering and the Civil Pilots Training program.
In addition to the staff, a large demonstration classroom will be used to set up a semi-permanent exhibit of aeronautical
equipment. The use of the wing will facilitate efficiency in the department making room for the increased enrollment of 50 students over last year.
The building, which is under the general direction of W. C. McNown, professor of Civil Engineering, asisted by the foreman, Russell Schon, will be completed as fast as labor can be obtained. Shortage of labor has caused the delay in construction. The new building will be utilized for various research projects, some already underway. A paper project at the Lawrence Paper Company conducted by Dr. T. G. Castenguay assisted by Joe Svoboda, and a petroleum reservoir project in the petroleum engineering department under the direction of Dr. E. A. Stephenson assisted by P. T. Amstutz, are two of the major projects.
The walls are made of dirt taken from the south slope of the Hill and then tamped by a method of mixing small amounts of concrete with the dirt. This process was discovered by Professor McKnown. Old Dyche museum provided rafters for the building and an old radio tower provided steel for the lintels of the doors and windows and for most of the reinforcing in the foundation.
Talent
Variety Show
In Light Vein
"Meet the Talent," the first of the variety shows to be presented by the department of speech and drama under the direction of Allen Crafton, professor of speech and dramatic art, will be presented Oct. 26, 27, and 28 at Fraser theater. Student activity tickets will admit but must be exchanged for seats at the ticket office in the basement of Green hall on or after Oct. 23.
The show is made up of several acts. The directors, Allen Crafton and Robert Calderwood of the department of speech and dramatic art, will not guarantee the quality of the various acts, but they do guarantee that all the acts listed below will take place.
The acts are: Prologue: Overture; "Murder in the Afternoon," a murder drama; "Between Classes," singing; "Down By The Erie," more singing; "The Indiscreet Nurse," a domestic tragedy; "Let's Dance, several solo dancers; "Killing Time," practically nothing; "A Woman of Character," a one-act play, "Soap Opry," a radio satire; "A Kiss in Xanadu," a pantomime; "The Tragedy of Brown," a play in nine acts; and "Stage Door Canteen," which will include all the remaining acts which haven't been up to this time.

The Editors Say-he mentioned that technicians in the navy were paid very good wages.
Frank Clough, one of the federal news censors in Washington, said that while he realized many papers had to apologize for the voluntary censorship of the President's recent national tour, no one was put in such an embarrassing position as a foreman of defense industry who arrived home late one night with all the appearances of having been to the local barroom.
To stall off his wife's wrath, he told her that he had been talking to President Roosevelt and to prove his story, they went down to the corner drug-store and bought a copy of the paper. Of course, there was no story and as a result the foreman was in the doghouse for a week and a half before his story was proved true.
At least one Kansas editor is convinced that the navy pays good wages.
Albert Jones, Syvacuse editor, found he had come to the wrong place to find any printers for his shop. He came here with the avowed purpose of hiring a printer and went home with four offers of jobs on other papers, but he didn't get a printer.
Lieut. Ted O'Leary was telling the editors of ways in which they could help the navy in its enlistment publicity. He cited the recruiting propaganda which could be used by editors to aid enlistments in the navy and
Earl Flickertt immediately spoke up, Yes, I know, I lost a limotype operator when I told him of the navy's wages.
Another title has been added to the list used for newspaper men, in addition to the editor, publisher, advertising manager, and others. Basil "Stuffy" Walters, of the Minneapolis Star-Journal, began his address this morning with the words, "Fellow junkdealers."

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
Prineeton University will not grant permission to hold any large dances this fall or a Junior Prom next spring. The only large dance which will be held at Princeton this year will be the Senior Prom, which is tentively set for the evening of January 29. the night before the accelerated seniors graduate.
The administration's action is in accordance with the recommendation made last summer by army and navy officials that all unnecessary extra-curricular activities be curtailed, and the more recent request from the urging that the University discontinue unnecessary functions which place an undue load on transportation facilities leading into Princeton.
The sing season of University of California at Los Angeles started with Ken Baker and his band swinging into the groove with a program of solid jive.

A special entertainer is the Cossack dancer who performs while carrying 12 knives in his mouth, and on his hands, chin, and shoulders. This is a traditional dance in the Caucasus.
Members of the chorus are traveling by train, and will arrive in Lawrence Wednesday morning.
BE USEFUL---truth is the attitude of the United States towards censorship."
"I am not so concerned," Walters said, "that we will lose the war as I am that we will lose the peace." As an example of the way in which we have not been preparing for the peace he cited the case of Soviet
Russia. Russia, in spite of her valiant struggle, has not yet been accepted as a full partner in this war, Walters said. She will have to be, for Russia must be reckoned with at the peace conference.
Frank Clough discussed the problems of voluntary censorship as it affects the editors and the Office of Censor in Washington, D. C. The plan's complete success, he said, rests with the individual editors throughout the country. Its sole purpose it to keep from the enemy information which might be helpful or revealing.
A violation of the rules as published in the Press Code, is not prosecuted or fined. Clough said. The editor of the paper merely receives a letter or telephone call that informs him of his violation and asks that he does not repeat it.
Readers Are Best Censors
The best censors of all, Clough said. are the individual newspaper readers who are quick to notice any error. Every day hundreds of letters arrive at the Office of Censor from these readers who detected some thing in their local newspaper they think should have been suppressed.
"Censorship Is Necessary Evil"
Above all, said Clough, editors should realize that the Press Code says nothing about criticism based on individual opinion. Such a right to criticize is a large part of the American way of life for which we are fighting.

"I don't like censorship," summed up Clough. "None of us do."
After the meeting the editors were guests of the University at a luncheon in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building and at the football game.
FROSH PARADE----
The parade was led by the University band and trucks of cheering co-eds. The rally was anti-climaxed by a free show at the Granada theater.
Henry, Vic Hurt and Wayne Replogle were greeted with vociferous applause. The speakers played well upon the patriotic heart strings of the audience, and a feeling of tense joyfulness reigned over the crowd. Cheers and songs floated out over the park mingled with the odors of the free doughnuts and cider. All the rivalry of the preceding march down the hill was forgotten in the school spirit that rang so high.
Engineering Instructor Leaves for Naval Duty
John I. Moore, petroleum engineer in the State Geological Survey, left last week to enter naval training at the University of Arizona. He received a commission as lieutenant junior grade, in the navy.
Mr. Moore has been working with the Geological Survey exclusively since June, but previously taught petroleum engineering part of the time in the University for five years.

MSC Asks Assistance in Scrap Drive
A scrap drive, to be a continuation of the drive sponsored by the Coed Volunteer Corps. is being launched by the War Defense committee of the Men's Student Council to bring men students more into the effort to collect scrap.
Plans for the drive were completed by the committee last night at a meeting of the MSC and it will start immediately. Any contributions should be taken to the scrap pile in front of Fowler shops.
In announcing the drive, Bill Porter, chairman of the committee, said that while the scrap drive conducted by the CVC was successful and well-conducted, the Men's Student Council has undertaken its promotion in the hope that there will be more contributions from the men students.
"Most of us, and particularly the organized houses," Porter said, "have quantities of valuable scrap on hand which have been unnoticed, or which have not been turned in through lack of initiative on our part. Let's turn in every article that we can give up or dig up."
CVC Conducts Member Drive
Final membership drive for Coed Volunteer Corps members is being conducted this week. Members will be inducted by officers residing at each house after platoon sergeants submit a list of candidates to Lt. Lois Blackburn, membership chairman, Major Jill Peck said today.
The CVC established a weekly stamp day, with the platoon sergeant of each house selling stamps and bonds under the direction of Lt. Peggy Davis, called for volunteers to help at the student hospice during rush hours and asked for volunteers to help in Red Cross activities.
A marching unit of CVC has been asked to march in the Navy Day parade next Tuesday by Col. James S. Dusenbury, commanding officer of the ROTC. CVC will follow the ROTC in the parade.
The Pershing Rifle unit with Frans Tyler in charge is teaching marching commands to officers and platoon sergeants this week.
Women May Submit Names For Freshman Elections
The WSGA election committee will sit in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building between 3 and 5 o'clock Thursday afternoon to accept names of all freshman women wishing to run for freshman class vice-president or freshman secretary. Any University freshman woman is eligible apply. Elections will be Nov. 5.
Ticket Sale For Frolic Over 200
"Ticket sales for the Freshman Frolic, Oct. 24. have passed the 200 mark," Larry McSpadden, dance manager announced today. The dance will be held in Hoch auditorium and Jan Savitt will play. A limited number of tickets will be sold.
Spectator tickets will be sold beginning Wednesday for 50c a person plus tax, McSpadden added. These can also be purchased at the business office in Frank Rest hall.
Jan Savitt and his Tophatters, featuring Joe Martin, will bring a new and different "shuffle rhythm" to the students. Savitt combines his classical training with his swing, devising what is known among fans as "sweet swing."
Savitt's latest appearances included the Lincoln hotel in New York City, the Sherman hotel in Chicago. and many army and navy camps. Savitt's own violin gives variety to his program, and many of his numbers feature the violin.
Savitt has a variety of soloists and his theme song, "It's a Wonderful World," gives all soloists a chance to perform.
Tickets for the Frolic will go on sale at the Bell Music company in downtown Lawrence starting tomorrow.
Victory Varsity
★ ★ ★
To Buy Bond
To provide a scholarship fund for men in the armed forces returning to the University after the war, students will dance at the all-student Victory Varsity from 7 to 8 o'clock tonight in Hoch auditorium. The dance is being sponsored by the ISA with the entire proceeds used to purchase bonds and stamps.
Art Partridge, publicity chairman of the ISA exp $ ^{1} $ ined that the dance will require th. presence of nearly all University students if it is to be a success. The dance is both stag and date affair; however, authorities have suggested that each person attending pay his own admission of twenty-five cents, regardless of dates.
When these bonds and stamps reach maturity they will be used by the scholarship committee in giving aid to some former student of the University who has been in service and desires to complete his education.
Music will be furnished by Danny Bachmann's band.
George Sitterly, a journalism graduate in 1941, recently became pony editor in the Kansas City office of the Associated Press. Previously he had edited a Kansas City real estate magazine.

Select Sixteen To Forums Board Broadcast Panel
The following students were chosen at Forums Board meeting last night as members of the KU Forums Panel: Merrill Peterson, chairman; John Waggoner, Jim Gillie, Charles Case, Verlyn Norris, Art Nelson, J. Scurlock, Joy Miller, Colleen Poorman, Barbara Duree, George Chaney, John Triplett, Ed Kelly, Laird Campbell, Betty Kalis, and Jack Kendall. Five members of this group will be elected for each forum which will have its first broadcast over KFKU at 9:30 p.m. Nov. 3.
Topics for this series of programs have been discussed, but no definite subjects have been planned. The list of possible topics deal with the following subjects: "America's Morals," "The New Congress," "Effects of War on Education," "Effects of War on America's Economic System," and "the Problem of Civil Liberties during the War." After subjects have been chosen from this group, the Forums Board will print a program of the series of broadcasts and mail them throughout the listening radius of KFKU.
The plan of preparation for these discussions follows that used on the University of Chicago Round Table. The panel will hold a luncheon meeting once a week at which the topic of the past week and the subject of discussion for the present week will be discussed.
Men's Fraternities Limit Party Expense
The council's action was in line with the trend at the University to cut expenses on parties and put the excess money into war bonds, said Bill Porter, publicity chairman. It is expected that the fraternities will use decorations for their traditional parties. A fine will be imposed on any fraternity not abiding by the council's decision.
Men's fraternities will use decorations for only one party this year, it was decided by the Pan-Hellenic council in a meeting, Sunday morning.

Don Cossack Choir Sings Tomorrow
The General Platoff Don Cossack Chorus, which has presented 4,000 concerts in the past 15 years, will arrive in Lawrence by train tomorrow morning and open the University Concert Course in Hoch auditorium at 8:20 p.m.
In recent years the chorus has traveled on several continents by bus. The ban on transportation necessitated a re-routing of their schedule, and the Cossacks will arrive in Lawrence one day earlier than the date which was originally set for their appearance.
The band of 27 Russians, sometimes known as the "Twenty-seven Singing Horsemen of the Steppes," will feature every type of song from the folk songs of Old Russia to the barbaric war songs of the Cossacks themselves.
The General Platoff Don Cossack choir takes its name from a celebrated Russian hero of the early 19th century and from a river which flows through their homeland. General Platoff was a Cossack from the River Don region, from which most of the choir members came. He was a musician as well as a soldier, and often led his troops with the folk music

This week's Brainbuster program, third in a series of KFKU broadcasts on the theme of Navy Day, will have as its "Quiz Kids" five members of the faculty.

Jim Gillie, business senior, will be the master of ceremonies.
The program will be presented at 9:30 Thursday evening over KFKU Miss Mildred Seaman, assistant program director for KFKU, stated that the public is invited to attend this program but admission can be obtained only by ticket.

All freshmen who are members of the YWCA or YMCA are eligible to vote in the elections.
Officers Tell Students Of Reserve Plans
Representatives of five branches of America's armed forces addressed a gathering of men students enlisted in various reserves, and those planning to enlist, in Hoch auditorium this morning.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott, in a brief talk before introducing the speakers, said "I have every confidence that this country will not abandon higher education." He pointed out that officers must have a knowledge of human psychology as well as tactical skill, and that our officers will come from universities.
Major Russell L. Stephens, a graduate of the School of Law in 1924, representing the army, was the first military speaker. He pointed out the seriousness of the world situation at present, and stated that nobody is able to say when reservists will be called to active duty. It is to the advantage of the country, however, to create a "pool" of potential officers. Major Stephens said, as "only men who are college timber are able to assimilate the knowledge needed by officers."

Several students have already begun writing the correspondence. Webster asks that any students wishing to write leave his name with him or at the alumni office in the basement of Frank Strong hall.
County chairmen will be chosen later. They will have charge of other activities within their county. These activities include sending Jayhawkers to the high schools and sending out picture display boards.

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
Thank God for Kansas State! Once again this fall the Aggies seem to present one of the few chances for the Jayhawks to chalk up a gridiron victory. At least, Gwinn Henry's men should take the field no less than an even choice against the equally hapless Wildcats, whose record so far this season is certainly no rosier than the Jayhawk performances. Fans who remember last year's game here between the two squads are certain that next Saturday's battle will pack plenty of fireworks. The 1941 game was just about tops in everything, and kept fans on the edge of their seats from the starting whistle to the closing gun. The two teams seem to be even more evenly matched than last year, when the Jayhawks went onto the gridiron something of an underdog to upset the Manhattan squad.
- * * * *
The game at Manhattan will be the Wildcats' Homecoming, and certainly Ward Haylett's men will be pointing for the game. Many scribes believe that the Aggies' Jug Zeleznak is due to break loose with a rash of touchdown dashes. Zeleznak, Rokey, Bortka, Merriman, Repstine, Quick and cohorts may give the Wildcats an edge in the backfield, but it would seem that the Jayhawk line should be more than able to handle the Wildcat front wall. Perhaps the deciding factor will be the weather. Another wet day and a slippery ball may spell disaster for the Jayhawks, with so much depending on the passing of Ray Evans. On the other hand, if the weather is good Evans might possibly come through with another performance like his exhibition at TCU, and if so, the Wildcats won't have the running game the Frangs possessed to overcome it.
- * * * *
In truth, there was nothing very encouraging about the Jayhawk showing against the Sooners. However, Gwinn Henry's charges did appear to be a better squad than the outfit which had earlier dropped tilts to the Iowa Cadets and Marquette at Memorial Stadium. Biggest improvement was the running game, where the Jayhawks actually held their own with the high-geared Sooners the first half. Hoyt Baker in particular looked good, and for the first time this season the Jayhawks had a man on the field who could pick up some yardage returning punts. Ed Linquist came through with another good performance, and is the most consistent of the Kansas running backs. Evans also showed flashes of last year's prowess on the ground.
***
Defensive play, while somewhat erratic, seemed to be somewhat cleaner than in previous Jayhawk tilts. The tackling of Junius Penny and Ray Evans was particularly vicious. It is unfortunate that Evans' great defensive game cannot show in the national statistics as will his slump in passing. Our unofficial tabulations show that he has now completed something like 53 out of 121 passes. The way the big boy cut down Sooner backs in the secondary, however, more than makes up for any deficiencies in the passing department. Warren Hodges was also a defensive standout, and seems to have at last found himself in a Jayhawk uniform and to be playing the type of ball he used to turn in at Lawrence High. It was the second straight game in which the big tackle turned in a sterling performance.
- * * *
At random—Jayhawk fans are wondering why Frosty Wilson didn't see more action. The junior back might have aided in taking up the slack in protection for Evans when he dropped back to pass . . . Harry Merriman, scooting sophomore back at Manhattan, will bear watching Saturday, although he tips the scales at only 140 pounds . . . Kansas State publicity material rates Mike Zeleznak as "the best back in the state of Kansas." Our nomination for that honor goes to Evans or St. Benedict's Ivy Comp . . . The Jayhawkers have taken 23 out of 39 previous games with their state rival. Two contests have ended in a tie . . . The report is out that big Charlie Black will qit football this week.

Haylett and Assistants Form Capable Staff
Ward H. Haylett is by trade a track man, but when service calls dug deeply into the Kansas State coaching ranks the popular mentor turned up as the Aggie football coach, and has been doing a capable job this fall with unusually weak material at Manhattan.
Haylett's backfield coach, Carl Nelson, former Bethany College star, is definitely forward passing minded. His high school squads at Council Grove and Clay Center became fa-
Haylett has coached thinclads at Kansas State for 14 years, and during that time has also served at various times on the gridiron coaching staff as freshman mentor, assistant coach, and as a scout. He was an athletic star at Doane College at Crete,
Neb, before serving as a second lieutenant in the infantry during the first World War. Cherished at High School
Following the war, Haylett took up high school coaching, and then returned to Doane College in 1924 as football and track coach. In 1923 he was appointed K-State's first full-time track mentor, and has since that date been unusually successful in the sport. In 1977 Haylett coached the American team to a victory in the Pan-American games at Dallas, Texas.

Former Austrian Soldier Writes of Nazi Shortages
Reports from Europe today state that Pierre Laval may be ousted by Hitler unless he delivers 150,000 men for labor in Germany. The lack of Nazi labor stressed in Paul Hagen's new book, "Will Germany Crack?" is thus a vital problem.
Other important shortages in Germany today are coal, iron, fodder for cattle, food, and clothing. The great deficiency in coal and iron can be attributed $ ^{\circ} $
both to insufficient labor and a poor transportation system. The acquisition of European agricultural countries has not helped greatly the Germans do not have the machinery or men to produce food. Political Weapon is Best
Paul Hagen, who served in the Austrian army in the last war, knows conditions in Germany from various underground reports and is capable of unbiased appraisal of the German situation. He believes that the political weapon could be the strongest one for the United Nations. Labor in Germany is overworked and under-paid almost to the breaking point. Farm labor especially talks openly against the Nazi regime. There are many elements of unrest in Germany today, though not organized. Why would Germany need the concentration camps and constant executions if she were united?
New Order Fails?
Mr. Hagen points out the failure of Hitler's new order, in which the countries were to be harnessed into productivity for Germany. This has failed as has the harnessing of millions of workers; so Hitler has even resorted to foreign soldiers in his army and to compromise with countries if they would give over their military strength.

Heavy Enrollment A Small Staff
The physical education department of the University has the largest enrollment in its history this year, and also he smallest staff of the last few years.
Within the last year the department has lost eight instructors to the armed forces. One person has been found to supplement this loss.
"This loss would have placed a terrible burden upon the remaining instructors if the department had only the average enrollment, but since nearly all men students are in the department this year the situation is acute," Dr. Forrest C. Allen, department chairman, said today.
John Cress left the department over a year ago and is now a lieutenant in the Army Physical Training program at Camden, Ark.
The loss of instructors has been displaced by help from physical education majors and members of the varsity athletic teams to some extent.

Dr. Rufus H. Thompson, an instructor here last year in botany, has written Dr. A. J. Mix of his new position in the Beech Aircraft company in Wichita. Dr. Thompson worked this summer in research at the Marine Biological Station on Solomon island in Chesapeake Bay.
While on Solomon island, Dr. Thompson found a new species of yellow-brown algae, rarely found in this part of the world. Six of the types have been found in Europe and Java, and eight of the specimens were previously undiscovered.

Dr. Thompson was graduated from the University and took his master's degree here. He received a Ph. D. from Stanford. Dr. Mix remarked that while Dr. Thompson was here he was always stumbling on some undiscovered specimen. Once he found the second liverwort of its kind to be known in the world.

Commentary by the KANSAN Editorials * Features * Patter
Milk Becomes More Vital
Many months ago, Secretary Wickard of the Agricultural Department began appealing to farmers to cut down on production of crops such as wheat and cotton, with which we are far over-stocked, and to increase production of truck garden and dairy products.
Because of the lack of transportation facilities, the problem of a dairy products shortage has become more and more acute especially in areas where war production has brought a rapid increase in the number of families.
Washington state draft boards have set a national precedent for other states in the matter of deferment for dairy workers. A distinction has always been made between ordinary farm hands and dairy employees. The curtailment of production in such things as wheat would not be nearly so hard on immediate national welfare as would an increased shortage in dairy products.
An indefinite deferment for full-time dairy employees shows the importance placed by draft officials on the maintenance of full production in the dairy field. Here is one branch of farm production in which we have not been troubled with the problem of a surplus.—G.S.
In broadcasts picked up recently by United Nations receiving stations, Japanese Premier Hideki Tojo is reported to have told his people that Japan has taken steps in preparation for the "next stage of the war."
Siberia Next, Mr. Tojo?
The little Jap leader was not accommodating enough to disclose just what this "next stage" would be. Evidently he wants the United States to wonder about it—and tremble in the uncertainty. The United States will hardly do that, but the boast precipitates again the significant question, "What will Japan do next?"
Tojo could easily have been talking through his hat (a trick he might well have learned from Hitler). A dictator's promise of "big things to come" reeks of propaganda. The Japanese people probably regard that supposedly momentous statement as a prelude to ultimate victory.
The Jap premier should not be underrated, however. It is entirely possible that a new campaign will be attempted. If this is true, an invasion of Siberia is the most likely plan, for several reasons.
Tojo is an army man, both by training and by heritage. Several weeks ago, he replaced the navy-dominated Japanese cabinet with his own group of hand-picked army men. At that time, it seemed that his first official act might be to launch a land attack on Siberia.
It is significant, also, that the Japs could gain nothing by a naval blow at United Statesheld territory. They have already taken almost everything they want in the Pacific, and recapture of the few Solomon Island bases they have lost would hardly be worth the effort.
The Japanese, moreover, know the strength of the United States fleet. The battles of Midway and the Coral Sea taught them that. As long as that fleet has the obligation of the offensive, the Nipponese are not going to expose themselves with an attack of their own.
The successful invasion of Siberia, of course, would be a tremendously difficult job. Let no
--one think, however, that Tojo, in the egotism of all war lords, would shrink from the attempt. If he succeeded in establishing an Axis second front, Russia would be in such a perilous position that the issue of an Allied second front would have to be settled immediately.
Just Wondering
---
Experience may be the best teacher, but lots of people will tell you that curiosity runs a close second.
--one think, however, that Tojo, in the egotism of all war lords, would shrink from the attempt. If he succeeded in establishing an Axis second front, Russia would be in such a perilous position that the issue of an Allied second front would have to be settled immediately.
While Russian resistance in the west mitigates a Jap thrust into Siberia, the fiendish Japanese mind bears watching. Its next decision may change the whole course of the war.

Bill McIntire, Delt, is having his share of troubles. The other night, McIntire went down to the Nightshirt Parade to find which were the toughest, freshmen or Ku Ku's.
"It is my firm opinion," McIntire stated on his return, "That the freshmen this year are rough!"
The freshmen had broken one rib while the Ku Ku's had cracked only one.
Then, last night, Bill went out to get in "Quantrill," his blue Model-A ford, and discovered it was gone. With the aid of a few friends, he finally discovered "Quantrill" sitting in front of Fowler Shops by the scrap heap, guarded by two sailors. Someone seems to be going for this scrap drive in a big way.
McIntire is now uttering silent prayers and holding his breath in fear of what's coming next.

Until a few days ago, the favorite pastime of Carruth Hall freshman, Lee Soxman, was putting Tommy Dorsey's tear-it-down recording of "Well Git It" on the record-player and whistling while the torrid strains of the number were being needled from the Dorsey disc.
Two weeks of this nerve-wracking practice was about all that his house-mates could endure.
So Saturday night, as a part of freshman initiation, Soxman was given an opportunity to display his puckering talents before all the men in the house, under the rigid supervision of upperclassmen armed with paddles. No less than twelve times was "Well Git It" ground from the record-player and less that twelve times was the bewildered freshman forced to whistle the ditty without any rest periods.
Soxman isn't likely to whistle "Well Git It" for some time.

Crafton Directs Drama
Cigar and All
If you see a little man with slightly graying hair and a small mustache, chewing vigorously on a cigar, it is probably Allen Crafton, head of the department of speech and drama.
Professor Crafton has been teaching the art of acting to University students since 1923. Having received training at Knox College at Galesburg, Ill., and at Harvard, he taught first at Carleton College, Northfield.
Minn., before coming to Kansas.
Limping slightly and using a cane, Professor Crafton goes about his daily work with vigor. He looks business-like, but the twinkle in his eye is unmistakable. Completely serious when the occasion demands, Professor Crafton manages to bring out the talents in his amateur actors.
During rehearsals of a play, when tension is high and the nerves of the students are at a breaking point, he either tells one of his poignant jokes or sings in a robust tenor, "Don't Spank Your Mother, Boys." In this song he is usually joined by Robert Calderwood, another speech
and drama teacher, and the team is incomparable.
Established Prairie Playhouse
Professor Crafton's experience in acting and directing in professional stage shows dates back to the Prairie Playhouse in Galesburg, Ill. After his return from Harvard, he went to Galesburg and established the theater. Before the Prairie Playhouse had much opportunity to grow, the World War began. He joined the army and went to France.
Even a war did not stop him. After the Armistice was signed, he found himself and several other army men stranded in France. So, with an eye ever on the theater, he organized and directed a show manned by the army. With this

Letter to the Editor
To The Editor of the University Daily Kansan:
We of the University of Kansa band, with all respect to the students of the University, protest to the editorial which appeared in the University Daily Kansan of Friday, October 16. These matters we are determined to right through the love of our own organization and the respect we hold for our conductor, Russell L. Wiley.
The railroads cannot accommodate us. It should also be known that on two different occasions our director was advised by Chancellor Malott not to attempt even one football trip, since war conditions have crowded railroad facilities to the extent that a request for special accommodations for ninety people could be construed as unpatriotic. The "more than one-hundred student-owned cars on the Hill" are not all going to K-State; and if fifty went, taking two members of the band in each car, there would not be the usual group of cavorting always-loyal students who pretend to have the best interests of the team at heart rather than their personal good time.
The band has given up greater things than Frolics in order to do its duty. And, if it is of interest to you, the band likes to take trips. The Manhattan trip was voted down with the realization that the only trip of the year was going by the wayside.
As far as the band is concerned, this is a personal matter. It would seem that $\tilde{\mathbf{a}}$ crusader who so bravely looked to the student interests does not realize there is something more important than K. U. bands, football teams, and University Daily Kansans. Or doesn't he realize the condition of travel on the rails because of the war, and especially because of a well-known fort to the west of Manhattan!
We want to go to K-State, too, and some of us will be there . . . and we may stay to hear Harry James that night, if he is there. Is there any objection? But, as a group, we will not be assembled before the hoisting of the flag to play the national anthem.
No accuse the K. U. Band of disloyalty and lack of school spirit is not only unfair, but ridiculous. Not very many K. U. students carry a five-hour 7:30 class and receive no credit, or at best, one hour's credit. The multiplicity and variety of school functions in which the band participates is proof enough of its loyalty to K. U. Next time the Kansan wants to raise the question of school spirit, let them pick on a slacker, not on an organization that stands highest in service.
By the way, we hope you saw the drill we did at the half at the game! Just another one of those things our critics take for granted.

"Monument to Wheat," a memorial in native Silverdale limestone, designed and executed by Max Nixon, graduate of the department of painting, was recently dedicated at Newton.
Alumnus Completes Limestone Memorial
The figure, which stands 11 feet high upon a six-foot base, depicts the bringing of 24 pecks of turkey red hard winter wheat from the Crimea to Kansas in 1874 by a small band of Mennonite settlers.
The project was sponsored originally by the Newton Junior Chamber of Commerce. It was aided by gifts of wheat from farmers, mills, grain dealers, and elevators, which were converted into cash to finance the project.
"The Art Digest" of New York carries a two-column reproduction of the monument in its latest issue with a story of its erection.
Nixon, now a private in the army. Produced the monument while employed by the Federal Art Project. He was awarded the commission by submitting his design to competitive test.

A Playwright and Author
Much of the success of the dramatic department in the last few years has been due to Professor Crafton's uniring efforts to make the University speech department unequaled in the state. Not only does he act, direct and produce college plays, but he also writes them.
In 1940, he wrote a revue called, "On With the Show," which was similar in form to 'Helzapoppin'."
Professor Crafton has also written books. In 1938 he wrote "Play Directing," and a book on acting and another on the general subject of play production. In his second book, called "The Process of Play Production," he was aided by his wife. Mrs. Crafton also helps him in producing plays and sometimes acts in them.
Professor Crafton is also interested in radio. He has written several plays for radio station KFKU. In 1937 he was asked to speak before the radio group of the National Association of Teachers of Speech at New York by the Columbia Broadcasting System.
Painting being his avocation, he designed the insignia for the 25th Bombardment Squadron during the first war. The design appeared with others in the Life Magazine in 1937, the first time Professor Crafton had seen the insignia since the war.

Pleistocene
Elephant Tusk
Now In Dyche
An elephant's tooth, found in a gravel pit by Fred Heinlem of Stafford, was donated recently to Dyche museum.
This particular tooth of the Columbian mammoth, a large elephant which lived in Kansas and surrounding states during the Pleistocene period, is over a million years old. During the period in which the Columbian elephant inhabited Kansas, the big camel, the large horse, similar to the modern horse, the big bison, the big Dire wolf, and the sabra cat also lived in this territory.
Probably, the elephant, to whom the tooth belongs, grazed in the valleys and slopes of the tall grasses, and then died on a hillside. Rains might have washed away the rest of the skeleton, and deposited the fossil tooth in the John Rexin sand pit southwest of Stafford, explained Claude W. Hibbard, curator of the museum of vertebrates and paleontology.
Mr. Heinlein found the fossil while hauling sand from the pit. He has the tooth about two years, and exhibited it in the window of a business building of Stafford. During a trip to western Kansas, searching for other fossils, Dr. Hibbard stopped in the town and accidentally learned about the tooth. Mr. Heinlein, who wished to the have the fossil available primarily for school children, donated it to Dyche museum.
The tooth measures 10 inches high, 2 inches wide, and has a grinding surface of $ 8 \frac{1}{2} $inches.

Letter to the Editor
My comments at the game Saturday regarding the editorial in Friday's Daily Kansan were made with the idea that the band had been made an injustice. If such action appears to have been striking below the belt, then I am sorry.
TO THE DAILY KANSAN:
My whole life is wrapped up in this organization, and perhaps I was too hasty and unfair in taking advantage of the use of the public address system to explain our angle in the matter.
The band desires to cooperate in all University activities, and the public should know that the band and the University Daily Kansan are still on the best of terms.

Four hundred prominent townswomen, faculty members and students will be invited to attend the Matrix Table, which will be held Nov. 19. This is the nineteenth annual Matrix Table at Indiana and is strictly a "feminine" affair, in that men have never been invited as guests.
Rush Week Over at Virginia
The 1942 rushing season at the University of Virginia was officially ended last week end. Last year at the end of a two week rushing period the twenty-eight fraternities pledged 312 men.
This year, with so many of the brothers in the armed forces, the fraternities all need more men. Competition is keener than it has been in years.

Twenty-Seven Women Needed Immediately For Part-Time Work
Twenty-seven jobs are open to women students, Marie Miller, director of women's employment said today.
Most of the jobs, unfilled at present are for part-time or for four-hour stenographic work in offices. Some of the work requires a knowledge of medical and bacteriology terms. Regular calls are received at the office for care of children, clerking in down town stores, and meal service in restaurants, tea rooms, and boarding clubs.
Students interested in work should take their class schedules to the employment bureau in room 104, Fraser hall. About one hundred cards are on file but there is an urgent need for student help in mornings.
"The office work has changed from finding jobs to finding people," Miss Miller said. A bulletin board with a list of available jobs will be posted outside the employment bureau door where students may check for work.

OFFICERS TELL---ably would not be deferred any longer than the rest of the academic year, but would not be needed before next March. Men 18 to 26 years of age, unmarried, and with a high school diploma are wanted in this V-5 program. Lt. Harrison described the 13-months training awaiting enlistees, and remarked that about 90 per cent of the fliers would operate from land bases, and that only about one student in forty could expect to be assigned to duty on an aircraft carrier.
Intensive Work For Marines
Capt. G. L. Norris, of the marines, told of the rapid expansion of the marines, gave an account of their history, and spoke of their function in taking, holding, and fortifying bases for the navy. Candidates for officer's posts must be between 17 and 26 years of age and doing satisfactory school work. Only in case of necessity, Capt. Norris said, will men not graduated from college be made officers. An intensive training course will be given at Quantico, Va., after which those who pass become second lieutenants. After additional training the men are ready for combat duty.
"The Army Air Force is the easiest of all branches to get into, and the hardest to stay in," according to Lt. Roland Lando. The air corps cadets program is definitely a deferment plan, the speaker said, and students are urged to remain in school as long as possible. An enlistment board will visit the University in about three weeks to examine and enlist students at the campus.
Annapolis Not Enough
Ensign William Weld of the navy, spoke on two deferment programs, V-1 and V-7. Annapolis can no longer meet the demand for officers, Ensign Weld stated, and trained university students must fill the gap. The navy is not composed entirely of fine physical specimens, but of specialists, said Ensign Weld. He concluded with a description of the enlistment qualifications and the training offered in the two programs.
Chancellor Malott closed the meeting with an announcement that the speakers would be in the Union building this afternoon for individual conferences.

DON COSSACK--of the southern steppes. When that choir was organized among a group of exiled cossacks in Prague, it took its name from the musical general; and because there were so many Cossacks districts in Imperial Russia, they identified themselves by including the name of the 1,200 mile river Don.
D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, asks that purchasers of season tickets who have not already obtained them call at the Fine Arts office tomorrow between 9 and 12 a.m. or 1:30 and 4 p.m. Those desiring season tickets should arrange to procure them tomorrow or they may purchase a single admission ticket for the Cossacks and by presenting the stub of their ticket at the Fine Arts office later, they will be allowed credit towards the season ticket.
Navy Commissions Former University Basketball Player
Gordon Albert Durna, 22, of New York, a student and basketball player of the University last year, was commissioned an ensign in the Naval Reserve at Jacksonville, Fla., and awarded the gold "wings" of Naval Aviation, it was announced this week.
Commended by Captain John D. Price, commandant of the Jacksonville Naval Air Station, upon the completion of his flight training, Ensign Durna is now ready for active duty at one of the naval stations or with the fleet air arm.
Ensign Durna completed his elimination flight training at the Naval Reserve Aviation Base in Squantum, Mass., before reporting as an Aviation Cadet to Jacksonville in March.
While there, he studied ground school courses including celestial navigation, mechanics, aerology, communications, and other classroom subjects relative to aviation. Ensign Durna also piloted navy planes in combat formations in addition to hours spent in dual instruction through all kinds of weather.

manager, announced today.
The makers of "sweet swing" will start the show with their special arrangement of "It's A Wonderful World." Savitt's theme song. Another feature brought to the Hill by Savitt will be his "shuffle rhythm" popularized a few years ago. "Shuffle rhythm" was originated by Savitt primarily through the combining of his classical background and his popular swing band. Many old favorites have been revived in a modern manner by Savitt.
According to the present plans, Savitt will stay at the Eldridge hotel. He has just completed a short tour of army and navy camps through the mid-west.
Ticket sales were reported as nearing the 350 mark today. The business office announced that more than 275 tickets are sold. Bell Music Company in downtown Lawrence has sold 10, and an additional 50 have been purchased by the sailors.

Declaring that there never was such a time of uncertainty in the future of universities as at the present wartime period, Chancellor Deane W. Malott, at a meeting Tuesday afternoon in Fraser theater, counseled the College of Liberal Arts faculty to avoid worry but to be ready for emergency changes.
"We are ready to make whatever changes are necessary for the time; we are in the same position as all other state universities," he reminded the faculty.

The difficulty of anticipating the future course of the University was pointed out by the Chancellor, who cited the loss of only 7 per cent of enrollment as a fortunate circumstance this year but at the same time in-
In Position To Train
That training for leadership will be continued in the University was the Chancellor's conviction. He declared that the University is in a position to train men and women in professions and in specific knowledge suitable for the war industry.
Kreamer asks that anyone interested in county club or correspondence work on the Statewide Activities committee this year should get in touch with him or Mab Webster.
The County Clubs of the Statewide Activities committee will have a restricted program this year, it was announced today by John Kreamer, chairman of the committee. The activities of the county clubs will be decreased this year because of the rationing and vacation situations.
County Clubs Meet In Faculty Homes
Instead of meeting at the University, the clubs will meet at the homes of various faculty members to discuss activities.
Complete Plans For Celebration Of Navy Day
Members of the University faculty will receive a dose of their own medicine at 9:30 tonight as they go on the air from the studios of KFKU, answering questions pertaining to the navy taken from quiz questions sent in by the public. Jim Gillie, business senior, will be master of ceremonies.
The five faculty members who are a change will answer questions are W. H. Shoemaker, professor of romance languages; Fletcher McCord, assistant professor of psychology; N. W. Storer, associate professor of physics; J. W. Ashton, professor of English; and K. W. Davidson, director of information. Tickets to the broadcast may be obtained in room 111 Fraser hall.
Ten questions have stumped the quiz kids in two previous broadcasts. They are Alice Luxson, Geraldine Buehler, Newell Jenkins, Bob Bocking, John and Ruth Mason, Bob Ellsworth, K.W. Davidson, Jane Peake, and David Davidson. Each person will be an honor guest at the banquet Tuesday evening given for the naval officers and their guests.

No Change Made Regarding Class Cutting--Lawson
Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, explained at a faculty meeting Tuesday that, contrary to current rumors that rules have been changed in regard to cutting classes, the regulations are the same as they have been for the past 25 years. The only existing rule regarding non-attendance of classes is that the dean of the College may withdraw from a class any student who has an excessive number of absences.
Dean Lawson reported that very few students are withdrawn from classes in a single semester because of unexcused absences.
Investigation in the College office shows that there never has been a regulation allowing a certain number of absences. The impression that students are allowed one cut for each hour in which they are enrolled is false, the dean said. Although there are no regulations, instructors are asked to report students with an excessive number of absences.
In regard to class attendance Dean Lawson also said, "In a day like this when or boys are fighting on every front, and our workmen are urged to

Colorful Cossacks Please
Dressed in the colorful garb of their homeland, the Don Cossack Chorus sang and danced last night before a large crowd in Hoch auditorium. Holding the attention of the audience throughout, even though the numbers were sung unaccompanied in Russian, the chorus directed by Nicholas Kostrukoff, presented a varied program including religious music, folk songs, war songs, and Cossack dances.
The "Lezginka," Caucasian Cossack dance, featured two dancers, one a Russian whirlwind dancer and the other a man who danced while carrying knives in his mouth. As he danced

he cast the knives from his mouth to the floor, sometimes two at a time, with the blades lodging in the floor. Both men danced to the accompaniment of clapping, humming, and a tambourine.
Recognize "Dark Eyes"
The Russian Gypsy song, "Black Eyes," appealed to the audience who recognized it as the well-known "Dark Eyes," and by their applause called for a repetition of it from the Cossacks.
The closing number of the program, the "Kozatchok," popular dance of the Don Cossacks, featured all singers and dancers in an energetic dance number. Calling for an encore, the audience saw the chorus members

Men could do well with two items beside the coat mentioned earlier. One is a suit, and the other a sweater to wear with the suit pants for the Manhattan rallies. Or if you like, combine a sports jacket with separate slacks. You'll see everything.
By the way, K.U. has a rally here in front of Robinson gymnasium at 10 tomorrow, so everyone get on the beam and be there.

Are You Afflicted?
Piddleosis
You should now ask, if you a what the heck are piddlers anyway?"
In peace time, in war time, in times of either or both, it makes no difference, college is the home of the greatest piddlers on earth. Chinese colleges, Russian colleges, African colleges, it still makes no difference, all colleges house piddlers.
You should now ask, if you are normal or subnormal: "Sav.
O. K., ask me!
A piddler may be defined as one (essentially) for this story a college student) who piddles around.
Now, if you paddle around, you engage in doing practically nothing when you should be doing definitely something.
Examples: You eat an apple, repose, and fall asleep for three hours the night before a big quiz. This is piddling.
Or: In the process of studying for the approaching quiz you doodle pictures of the fellow with the egghead who sits in front of you in class—instead of studying the text. This also is piddling.
No that we have the word clearly defined and some striking illustrations pointed out, we can continue with our dissertation on the subject of piddling.
No one can piddle around quite like a collegian. It may be due to the fact that no one has so much to do as a student in an institution of higher learning; hence, every little rest seems like a waste of time. It could be that no one has less to do than a student getting a higher education. In any case, college students are good piddlers—absolutely the best in the business.
Probably one of the greatest piddlers I know is a fellow who "carried his piddling to such an extreme that he forgot himself and practiced it in his physical conditioning class. Consequently, as he galloped over the obstacle course and came to the 7-foot wall (all the time piddling around) he broke his right toe as he slammed against the pine wall.
Another piddler who comes to my mind is a college junior who finds that his piddling is at a maximum when he tries to get his assignment for a course on his study schedule. Consequently he piddles when he should be studying his head off and comes to class thrice a week minus his material.
Piddling is not solely nor wholly a characteristic of the male species, but lots of campus females are also guilty of it.
One student took a class with me Iast year and for 18 solid weeks did the best job of piddling as any young woman I have ever witnessed. She combined drooling, sleeping and piddling over the rocks given her to study in the class.
So far as I know there is no given remedy for this semi-seriual mala-justment that is so characteristic of the average student.

First Revue To Feature Drama Only
"Owing to withdrawals from the cast because of time conflicts, too much work and other causes making it impossible to rehearse some of the acts, the entire plan of the first dramatic production of the year has been revised." Prof. Allen Crafton, of the department of speech and drama, said today. Formerly planned to include music, singing and dancing, the show has been changed instead to a straight dramatic revue.
Students may obtain admission tickets to "Meet the Talent," by presenting their activity books at the ticket office in the basement of Green hall, starting tomorrow, Professor Ashton announced. Tickets may be obtained for Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday nights. Since attendance usually has been light on the first night and students have often been turned away for lack of seats on the last night, Professor Crafton urges that students get their tickets early and for either Monday or Tuesday night.

Brown Lectures At Psychology Meeting
"The Role of Psychology in the Reconstruction" will be the subject for discussion when 20 leading psychologists, psychiatrists, and sociologists meet in Detroit tomorrow. The meeting will take place at the Henry Ford Memorial hospital, financed by the McDonald fund for encouraging research.
One of the addresses will be given by Prof. J. F. Brown, of the department of psychology here, on the topic "Barriers to Utopia."
Eminent psychologists from all parts of the country, including the psychiatrists-in-chief of both army and navy, Dr. Franz Alexander of Chicago, Dr. Gregory Zilboorg of New York, and other leaders, will be part of the assemblage. Professor Brown's speech will be a resume of a book he is writing under the same title. Some of the ideas in the book appeared in a series of articles in the 1941 edition of the University Daily Kansan.
From Detroit, Professor Brown will go to Chicago to address the Chicago Personality Society Monday on the "Experimental Verification of Psychoanalytic Concepts." Professor Brown described the society as a clearing house of psychologists and psychiatrists. His speech will be based on the series of experiments conducted by Dr. Margaret Brennan while studying for her PhD degree at the University last year.

--had brought the athletic standard down to Harvard's.
Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
While Flem Hall's explanation of the Kansas football situation is certainly novel, it just doesn't hold water. It is true that Chancellor Malott is not as football-minded as many of the more rabid student fans, including this writer, might desire. However, to accuse him of responsibility for the hapless situation is ridiculous. After all, he was hired as an educator, not an athletic coach. The task ahead of him in his own field is too great for him to be turning his attention toward athletics. The welfare of the football team is in other hands, as it should be. If blame for the team's predicament should rest on faculty shoulders, then certainly those shoulders are not Chancellor Malott's. He has his duties to perform, and he does them well. Among his duties is not turning out a winning football team.
$$
*****
$$
The question of athletic scholarships in violation of conference rules is an interesting one. This writer does not know whether Hall's charges that Oklahoma, Nebraska, and Missouri practice such subsidization are true or not—and does not pretend to have such knowledge. However, if they are true, then conference regulations become a farce. If there is no intention of enforcing such regulations, then let them be done away with by conference authorities, so that Kansas and the other two Big Six Universities can also engage in subsidization with a clear conscience. Until that time it is apparent that Kansas authorities intend to stick strictly to such conference rulings, and that determination is commendable. If Hall's statement does not have a basis of truth, then out-of-conference writers should exercise more care in making charges which can only injure the Big Six.
$$
****
$$
By far the best of Hall's assertions is his suggestion that the Jayhawks de-emphasize their football schedule. Certainly the scheduling of the Iowa Cadet game this year was a mistake which resulted only in the loss of prestige for the University. Such games should not be attempted in the future. As for further de-emphasisization, beyond the non-conference contests, such a move would seem impractical. Aside from Big Six clubs, only Missouri Valley teams and very small schools remain available few games. Certainly the Missouri Valley is no downward step from the Big Six. Many of the smaller schools of this section are on a much more subsidized basis than any Big Six University, and a loss to such a school, even if by a narrower margin, would be much more damaging to prestige than Big Six defeats. For example the Wichita University game of some years ago.

This week's game at Manhattan will be part of Homecoming festivities at Kansas State, complete with dances crowning of the queen, dinners, etc. Governor Payne Ratner will be present, and will present the queen and her attendants. Kansas State, like this University, has given up the idea of house decorations for the duration. Meanwhile, the football squad under Ward Haylett will be out for revenge for last year's upset. The Wildcats had five men on the bench with injuries as they battled Missouri last week, but some of them will be ready for Saturday's tilt. Expected to give the Jayhawks trouble is Earl Williams, fullback who in last year's game kicked a field goal, and who was outstanding in the Tiger game. Bill Quick and Ned Rokey have also been doing some nice punting. Other Wildcats who will bear watching are passer Ron Conrad and runner Harry Merriman.

Buehler Picks New Debate Squadmen
Tryouts were held for both the freshman debate squad and the varsity squad last Tuesday in Green hall. The judges were Prof. E. C. Buehler, professor of speech, and the members of the varsity debate team. The following members were chosen: Freshmen: Eugene Shepard, Wallace Grimes, Julia Cased, Jack Hines, Elizabeth Baker, Bill Conboy, and Larry Miller.
Added to the varsity squad were: Sterling Hess, Carl Bell, Bill Scott, and Bob Isaac. Because of their interest in debate and the quality of their work last year the following were also added to the varsity group: Richard Royer, Bob Hutchinson, Laird Campbell, and Edward Tihen.
The former members of the debate squad are Jim Gillie, Verlyn Norris, John Waggoner, Merrill Peterson, Jack Dunigan, Arthur Nelson, Bob Plumb, and John Skurlock. John Adams, a graduate of Bethany College at Lindsborg, will be added to the squad because of his record as the winner for Kansas in the extemporary discussion on Latin American affairs. He will be eligible for competition as a graduate student for one year only.
Former Student Taking Pilot Training At Pensacola, Fla.
William R. Allen, Jr., former student from 1926 to 1930, was recently appointed a naval aviation cadet and transferred to the naval air station at Pensacola, Fla., for flight training.
Allen was a varsity letterman in baseball at the University and was also on the volleyball and handball teams. He married a former student, Florabel Bush, who attended the University in 1932. For a time the couple lived in Liberal.

(continued from page four) hind the decline of football at the University of Kansas appears to trace back to the president of the school. It seems, he is a Harvard man who wants to make Kansas the Harvard of the middlewest. As far as football is concerned, he has succeeded." In his column, "The Sports Tide," Hall then asserted that in a great many cases the faculty heads of schools are more responsible for the caliber of teams than are the coaches.
"Charge Is Untrue"
Said Malott of the assertion: "I don't know about other schools, but the charge is certainly untrue of this University. My only connection with athletics at this University is the power of appointment of the coach and athletic director. Our present athletic setup in football had received a five year contract before I arrived here four years ago and is still functioning with one year of the contract to go. I have had absolutely nothing to do with the football setup here." "After all," said the Chancellor, "this sports writer can hardly expect me to coach the team. Such interference falls entirely outside my duties."
"It seems to me that Mr. Hall has not even got his facts straight," Chancellor Malott pointed out. "If I remember correctly, Harvard has turned out some good teams in recent years."
Three Reasons
"The only answer to the athletic scholarship question which is needed is a glance at the Big Six conference rules which very plainly forbid such a practice," declared the Chancellor.
Hall in his column gave three reasons for the lack of adequate material at the University: (1) no athletic scholarships are offered; (2) no jobs that will enable men to work their way through school, and still devote time to football and other athletics; and (3) only a one-meal-a-day training table, and that only during the football season.
Chancellor Malott pointed out that any person on the campus could see sufficient proof of the falacy of Halls second point. "All around you, you can see football men working at good jobs," he stated.
Another Big Six conference rule covers the third point, Malott declared.
Rivals Do Better
Continued Hall: "Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Tulsa, and other schools which compete with Kansas for athletes do much better than that—some of them a lot better. Result: Kansas does not get the material."
"I do not know whether other Big Six schools are guilty of Mr. Hall's charges, and I do not care," replied the Chancellor. "That is none of our business. That is the business of the conference authorities. Suffice it to say, Kansas does obey the rules and will continue to do so."
Said the Ft. Worth sports writer: "Failure of Kansas teams in recent seasons has dried up if not soured student body enthusiasm for football. That has led to a lack of spirit on the team."
The Chancellor stated that he thought such charges could best be

Hall suggested the de-emphasization of the schedule as a remedy for the situation. "It is unfair to the courageous boys to pit them against overwhelming odds."
Malott, however, pointed out that under such conditions it might be difficult to obtain a complete schedule.
Praised Ray Evans
F
Hall is the same sports writer who covered the TCU-Jayhawk game at Ft. Worth for the Star-Telegram, and described Ray Evans, Jayhawk ace, as the pest passer to perform at Ft. Worth since the Horned Frogs' Slingin' Sammy Baugh."
Malott, the ninth Chancellor of the University, is a graduate of this university with the class of 1921, having majored in journalism. However, he
received his MBA degree from the Harvard School of Business Administration in 1923, and has served on the faculty of Harvard University before coming here as the Chancellor in the fall of 1939. He succeeded E. H. Lindley, who resigned in December of 1938.
Want Top Team
In November of 1939 the Chancellor in addressing the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, was quoted as saying: "I hope we never have a nationally famous, winning football team." However, he added, "I do hope, however, that we have a team which can occasionally top the list."
At that time Malebt expressed his belief that athletics have both their advantages and their disadvantages, but that the advantages greatly outweigh the disadvantages.

My Kingdom for a Horse
Chauncey Depew, who in his lifetime was a very wealthy man, is said to have refused to help finance Henry Ford because "nothing has come along yet that is better than a horse."
Henry Ford nevertheless made automobiles. His automobiles, and those made by other manufacturers, have carried Americans many millions of miles. There were 32,000,000 cars in this country in 1940.
Because of the exigencies of war, the entire country will soon be rationed to four gallons of gasoline an automobile a week-if they are so lucky.
People are walking now as they haven't walked for a long, long time. They walk to school, to work, to the movies, to church, to the grocery store, to ball games, and so on, ad fatigum.
Bicycles are rationed. Trains and busses are crowded and running behind schedule. If you could travel by row-boat, you'd find it slow. Riding by dog-sled would be novel, at least. Roller-skating is dangerous for those who are getting brittle-boned. Hitch-hiking is mostly hiking. It is a long walk just to Big Springs.
Mr. Depew's statement may have been correct. But, since there aren't more than 15 or 16 million horses, mules, and donkeys, for 132 million people, in this country, where are we going to get a horse?—M.F.

Sense in Cities
One of the greatest problems confronting cities in the midwest is housing. Construction of large defense industries has caused a sudden influx of people to the midwestern states. Towns have grown into cities, and cities have passed the housing precipitation point.
City officials have grown gray as they faced the problems brought by the sudden growth. In searching for a solution to the housing problem, cities cannot afford to overlook zoning.
Zoning is the application of common sense and fairness to the public regulations governing the use of private real estate. It is an honest effort to provide each district or neighborhood with just such protection and just such liberty as is sensible in that particular district.
It gives everyone who lives or does business in a community a chance for the reasonable enjoyment of his rights. At the same time, it protects him from unreasonable injury by neighbors who would seek private gain at his expense.
Zoning regulations vary in different districts according to the determined uses of the land for residence, business, or manufacturing. These differing regulations are, nevertheless, the same for all districts of the same type Each home owner or store owner receives equitable treatment by this plan.
The motto for the modern city should become "live and let live" rather than the old motto of "dog eat dog." We know what to think of a household in which an undisciplined daughter makes fudge in the parlor, while little Johnny makes beautiful mud pies on the front steps, and little sister leaves soiled clothes soaking in the bathtub.
Yet many American cities allow stores to crowd in at random among private dwellings, and factories to come elbowing in among neat retail stores or apartment houses. It is this
Just Wondering
Everything is being rationed, it seems, except criticism. And there is no priorities on which governmental agency gets its cussing first.
stupid, wasteful jumble which zoning will prevent or gradually correct.
A zoning law prevents an apartment house from becoming a giant hive, housing human beings like crowded bees. It provides that buildings may not be so high and so close that men and women must work in rooms never freshened by a cooling breeze or lighted with sunlight.
Do not get the idea that zoning is a cure-all for municipal sicknesses. Alone its results are small; but as a part of a larger program it probably pays the city and the citizens a quicker return than any other form of city investment.

Before you call Long Distance, please ask yourself:
1. Is it really necessary?
2. Will it interfere with war calls?
A
TELEPHONE lines especially Long Distance circuits are crowded as never before, these war days. Materials to build new lines copper, rubber, nickel are needed for the shooting war. So we must get the most out of present facilities.
You can help us keep the wires clear for vital war calls if you will do these two things: (1) Don't call Long Distance unless it's urgent; (2) Call by number if possible and please be brief. Thank you!

Fiji's Upset By Medic Kids Squad
With Russell slipping through the right side of his line to pay dirt from the one yard stripe, the Medic Whiz Kids upset championship Phi Gamma Delta team, Tuesday by a 6 to 0 count in intramural touch football competition.
The game was fast, and both teams looked impressive. The game gained momentum as it progressed and the final whistle found the two teams locked in a vicious struggle.
Folk. Allen, McClure, and Robinson looked good in the Whiz Kid's line, while Shanks, McSpadden, Hodgson, and Stucker matched them blow for blow. Decker, Russell, Aldis, and DeTar in the backfield for the Kids worked together smoothly, and were more than a match for the fine Phi Gam backfield of Conley, Johnson, Falmer, and Staker.
Crow on left end for the Whiz men was the star of the contest, snagging passes all over the field and weakening the Phi Gam offense. Hinshaw at end for the Phi Gams was also an outstanding man.
Alpha Tau Omega and Pi Kappa Alpha struggled to a 12 to 12 tie in their game on Tuesday. Holt and Rush for ATO and Hickey and Shreve for PiKA scored the tallies, with sleeper passes falling thick and fast throughout the entire game.
Sigma Ch eked out a 2 to 0 victory over Phi Delta Theta with Forsyth receiving the laurels for the Sigma Chi scoring.
In six man football, triangle bowed to Delta Chi 26 to 8. Don Burt for Delta Chi was the standout, returning the opening kickoff for a 6 point lead. He was responsible for 20 points. The Blanks played Jolifo Hall
The Blanks plowed Joliffe Hall
The result of last Saturday's game between Sigma Ph Epsilon and Theta Tau was 8 to 6 in favor of the latter instead of a 8 to 0 as appeared on the official scorecard.
under in their 6-man game 19 to 0. Stannard and Green scored the touchdowns.
Dr. M. L. Thompson, recently arrived at the University to take charge of subsurface stratigraphy, has been dividing his time between his desk at the State Geological Survey office and touring Lawrence for living quarters. He says that he can now devote his time to work with the University.
Thompson Joins Geological Survey
Dr. Thompson comes from the New Mexico School of Mines, where he was associate professor of geology and paleontology and a member of the Bureau of Mines. He is a specialist on carboniferous stratigraphy, and is planning to continue research in that field here.
Dr. Thompson spent two months several years ago in Mexico and Central America digging for fusulinid fossils which indicate the age of Pennsylvanian rock. These fossils have been found in New Mexico and Texas, and open up new possibilities for oil production. The fossils wash up in well drilling but have not yet been found in Kansas.
Next semester Doctor Thompson will teach graduate courses in subsurface stratigraphy and micropaleontology. Until then he plans to do research on oil and gas in Kansas.
"Freight at Crossing," a water color by Karl Matterm, associate professor of drawing and painting, has been pursued along with 12 other pieces of art out of the Murdock fund for the Wichita Art museum.

Happenings at the Kappa Sig house:
Some Beta pledges were playing tennis with girls yesterday afternoon. Following the usual Beta tradition for pledges who aren't allowed to speak o girls on week days, the best that can be said is—it was a very silent game.
Pledge Jones happened to ask Pledge Forney one day the simple question "Have you seen Warren Harwood?"

Pledge Forney answered casually, "Yesh, he just went around the corner in a rowboat."
Hmmmmmmm! Sometimes I wonder——
Jones, without giving the answer much thought, said quickly, "Which corner?"

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
Printed on orange paper, with the insert page a gaudy yellow, the annual 49ers edition of the New Mexico School of Mines Gold Pan was devoted almost entirely to the celebration.
The Red Eye Saloon was the name given the gym and it lived up to its name. According to the Gold Pan, the walls of this abode of sin looked like a part of the United States Arsenal. Games of chance were everywhere. Those who didn't care to gamble danced to the strains of music, clinking bottles and rustling cards.
Colorado Aggies Go Harvestin$^{i}$
Colorado State College students were dismissed from class Oct. 20, to 27 to assist in the state-wide harvest of emergency crops. Under the direction of the CSC military department the 700 men enrolled in basic or advanced military training courses were organized for the emergency harvest call. Other men students are responsible to the deans of their respective divisions.
Minnesota Band Stays Home
According to President Green, it is perfectly acceptable for physically fit and able Aggie coeds to respond to harvest call.
The University of Minnesota band will march only on the Minnesota field this year. Traditionally, the band has made one trip with the football team each year. The band feels that in keeping with war-time curtailments of activities and transportation restrictions they should cancel their scheduled trip to Wisconsin.
Other curtailments of marching band activities are being made so that students will be able to devote more of their time to the speeded-up academic work.

The intramural table tennis tournament is scheduled to begin in the Memorial Union building Nov. 8. Bob Hodgeson, chairman of the Union Activities intramural committee, announced today. The deadline for entries is Nov. 5. All equipment for the tournament is furnished by the Union building. It will take approximately three weeks to finish this elimination match, two sets being played a week. Pairings and results will be posted on the bulletin board of the Union building.
Last year John Ise, Jr., won the championship in the men's division, and Althea Shuss won the honors of the women's division. They played the respective Nebraska champions in an intercollegiate ping pong match.

The total cost of the building is estimated at $5,000. The date of the dedication of the new building has not been set as yet.
A Packard for the Jape
In less than four hours Saturday afternoon more than 800 Purdue University men collected well over 80,000 pounds of scrap to be turned over to Uncle Sam's war industries.
Slightly more than half of the 40 tons were obtained from University buildings, the rest being gathered through a house-to-house canvass of every dwelling place in West Lafayette.
The climax was the scrap parade, when the Lambda Chi's put one last shot of gass in their ancient Packard convertible and sent it, with two pancake-flat tires, and over fifteen students piled on, lurching and backfiring down the street to the junk pile.

The attire of the chorus for the first part of the program consisted of black trousers with wide, red stripes down each leg, black boots, bright blue shirts, and white caps. The songs sung in the first part of the program were religious or operatic in nature.
The crowd became more enthusiastic as the program moved into the second part with more vivacious songs, such as, "The White Whirlwind," a Russian folk-song, "Song of the Flea," "Sileny," "The Snow Has Blown Over Russia," "Lezginka" and "In 1893," a Cossack war song.

Paul B. Lawson, Dean of the college, also spoke at the meeting, forecasting the probability of departmental changes because of revisions in curricula to meet wartime education. Dean Lawson told the College faculty to avoid worry over their employment prospects but to be ready and willing to accept any changes in their teaching that might be required to assist in the prosecution of the war.
NO CHANGES MADE--task is to keep the University alive,' he advised.
After completing the regularly scheduled program with an encore of the "Kozatchok" dance, the chorus closed the program by singing the "Star Spangled Banner," the only song sung in English during the evening.

Ceremonies for Navy Grads Here Next Saturday
Graduation exercises for the first division of the Naval Training School which will be conducted Saturday morning of next week in Memorial stadium is open to the public, Lt. A. H. Buhl, commanding officer said this morning.
Gov. Payne H. Ratner, Capt. E. A. Lofquist, Chief of Staff of the Ninth Naval District, Great Lakes, III., and Chancellor Deane W. Malott will be the speakers for the initial commencement of the first naval class to graduate from this school. Gov. Dwight Griswold of Nebraska was also asked to be a member of the official party including navy, army, state and university officials.
the graduation culminates an intensive 16-week course on the campus where the men studied all phases of machine operation and maintenance. This first class will be followed monthly by other graduating classes as long as the school is in commission, probably for the duration of the war.
Lt. Buhl outlines the tentative program to begin with a parade and re-

X-Ray Test Pictures At Hospital
Announcement was made today from the Watkins Memorial hospital that a large number of students have not yet called for the results of their x-rays, which were taken the opening week of school with the physical examinations.
More than 700 of the 1100 x-rayed save not obtained their pictures, and he proofs are still at the hospital.
Dr. R. I. Canuteson, director of the student health service, stressed the value of these x-ray pictures saying that they will serve the same purpose as a written report signed by the Kansas State Board of Health. He pointed out that they may be used in applying for positions or in any case where a health report is required.
Dr. Canuteson asks that students who had x-rays taken but have not received the pictures call for them at the hospital during clinic hours. If unable to call in person, a student may send a signed permit to allow another person to obtain his x-ray picture for him.

Lawson Speaks At Kiwanis Convention
Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, spoke Sunday evening at the opening service of the Kiwanis convention in Kansas City, Mo. The subject of his address was "Kiwanis and the Church."
The opening service was a memorial dedicated to Kansas, Missouri and Arkansas members who died during the past year.
Two junior backs from Kansas City are likely to play the leading roles in tomorrow's football game at Manhattan, as Gwinn Henry's Kansas Jayhawks, led by Ray Evans, clash with the Mike Zeleznaksparked Kansas State Wildcats.
Both men were sophomore sensations last fall, and Evans has been going great-guns this year. Zeleznak, however, has yet to get going, and might be due for a rash of touchdown runs tomorrow afternoon. Zeleznak is, in addition to his dangerous stabbing runs off tackle, a fine passer, punter, and signal-caller.
Evans and Zeleznak will be renewing a feud which began in their high school days when Evans performed for Wyandotte and Zeleznak starred for Ward. Last year in the Jayhawk victory over the Aggies Evans turned in a fine performance, whereas the Jayhawks kept Zeleznak well under control. Missing from the Jayhawk lineup, however, tomorrow will be three other faces which played a leading part in the Aggie defeat-Ralph Miller, Denzil Gibbens, and Hub Ulrich-all lost through graduation.
The Javhawk line, hit hard at the guard posts by injuries, will present a patched-up lineup against the Wildcats. Don Johnson will replace Carl Hird at a tackle position, so that Hird can fill a guard vacancy

Quiz Kids Faculty Trips On Cabinet
Last nights Quiz Kids on the Brainbuster program did one of the most remarkable jobs of answering questions of any of the programs. Only four tickets were given to members of the audience sending in questions which stumped the faculty members. The one question which was outstanding because of their failure to answer it was in regard to the President's cabinet. None of the Quiz Kids were able to name the members of the cabinet. Nearly all of the other questions were answered expertly. The questions which were fired at the brainbusters all pertained to the Army and the Navy.
Free tickets were given to the naval officers' dinner on Navy Day, Oct. 27, to Janet Malott, Bob Malott, son and daughter of Deane W. Malott; Edward Nelson Tilson college sophomore; and Martha Dooley, fine arts sophomore.
The last in this series of brain-buster programs will be presented Thursday. The Quiz Kids on this program will be six students from Oread High School and Lawrence Memorial High School. These students will be selected from the American Government classes. Questions on this program will be pertinent of current events. Jim Gillie, business senior, will be the master of ceremonies.

Jan Savitt's orchestra, perhaps the last "name" band to appear on the campus for the duration, will have an audience of at least 700 dancers, in addition to spectators, when it performs tomorrow night in Hoch auditorium from 9 to 12, after completing a tour of the Mid-west. Ticket sales are estimated at near the 400-mark, with another day remaining.
Savitt and his musicians are making their second stand at the University, having played for the Sophomore Hop two years ago. While more prominent in the East, the orchestra has conducted successful tour through the Mid-west.
Vernon McKale, president of the MSC, requests that no corsages be worn at the dance.
Savitt's high-ranking is due to the fact that Savitt is a great violinist with a classical background and has directed his talents to modern music.
One thing stands out in the Savitt style above all other characteristics; the kick it gives ordinary tunes and polished standards alike. Its infectious off-beat lends style to the drabest of tunes. Savitt achieves this by finding just the right tempo for every number he plays, to locate the particular emphasis a song will take, and then "rearranges" the tune to fit. One of his most famous arrangements is "The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise."
Four years ago, Savitt took the Tophatters out on a tour of barns, ballrooms, and theaters in the East and near mid-west, winding up with with an engagement at the New York

YM YW Plan Finance Drive
The YWCA-YMCA finance drive will begin Tuesday evening following a banquet for the members of the finance committees for both organizations. The banquet, which will be held in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building, will feature Dr. Paul B. Lawson as guest speaker.
During the three-day drive, which will end Friday evening, no definite membership fee will be asked of each member; however, each may give or pledge as much as he desires. Only those students who have registered with either of these organizations will be contacted. The goal set by the YWCA is $400; while that of the YMCA is $600. The drive is to raise funds and to advertise the work and service of the two groups. Calendars, listing the program of the organization for the year, will be distributed to all members.

Committee Plans for Homecoming Activity
Rally! Dance! Amateur entertainment! Homecoming queen! Navy graduation! Bond auction! All of these are included in the plans being made by the Homecoming committee for the weekend of Oct.29 to 31.
Events will begin with a rally, program and dance in Hoch auditorium beginning at 8 p.m. Friday. Three members of the football team will speak to the students, and Ray "Red" Pierson, former track star and member of the football squad who was graduated from the School*
of Law in 1924, will give a shor talk.
In speaking of his football career, "Red" claims the unusual record of 55 yards for every time that he carried the ball. Reason: he carried the ball only once.
Battle of Orchestras
On hand for singing throughout the rally will be Danny Bachmann's orchestra. A program of amateur entertainment provided by the sororities and women's organized houses will follow the pep rally.
"Battle of Bands" with both Danny Bachmann and Johnnie Pope dishing out the swing will provide music for
dancing in Hoch auditorium following the program.
Choose Homecoming Queen
The cost of the evening's entertainment, rally, program, and dance, will be 10 cents a person. Tickets may be purchased from any Ku Ku or Jay Jane. Fred Ellsworth, chairman of the Homecoming committee, urges students to buy their tickets early, because the capacity of the auditorium is limited, and after giving students first chance, tickets will be offered for sale down town.
HOMECOMING COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN
The Homecoming queen will be selected Friday night by a board chosen by Gilbert Ulmer, chairman in charge
CANAL DE VIVIER
of Homecoming queen selection. Candidates entered by women's organized houses will be interviewed by the evening at the rally and dance. The queen will be presented at the game.
Fred Ellsworth
Another event of the weekend will be the navy commencement program Saturday morning. Payne H. Ratner, governor of Kansas, will address the sailors, and greetings will also be extended by Chancellor Deane W. Ma-lott. E. A. Lofquist, chairman of the staff of the ninth Naval district from Chicago, will be here to present the Commencement address.
Climaxing the weekend events will be the Kansas-Nebraska game in Memorial stadium Saturday afternoon. Between halves a $25 war bond will be presented the governor of the winning state in the Kansas-Nebraska scrap metal 3-week contest, which ended last week. This bond will be used in an auction of war bonds in the stadium with Governor Ratner as auctioneer.
Miss Everta Smith, college freshman, was soloist at the luncheon Monday. H. G. Ingham, director of the extension division, and G. V. Keeler, assistant director of the extension division were also in attendance at the convention.

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
Perhaps the most successful of the Jayhawk stars now performing with service teams is little Chester Gibbens, Kansas graduate with the class of 41, who is more than a mild sensation with the army air corps team at Bakersfield, Calif. For instance, just last week the fleet little back ran 60 yards for a touchdown against the powerful San Francisco University team, and then, as accurate as a clock, dropkicked the extra point which beat the collegians 7 to 6. In a sports extra the San Francisco Globe ran a banner headline on the game reading: "Chester Gibbens stars again as soldiers down Dons." The performance against San Francisco was only one of several brilliant games turned in this fall by Gibbens. While attending school here, the Lecompton boy was almost entirely a dropkicking specialist, and got little opportunity to display his running prowess.

Games this week are really tough to pick. Here is how they look at present—Tulsa to swamp St. Louis, Texas A & M to outfall Baylor, Boston College to sneak past Wake Forrest, Georgia to wallop Cincinnati, Colorado to thresh Colorado State, Detroit to defeat Georgetown, Army to roll over Harvard, Holy Cross to eke out a victory over North Carolina State, Notre Dame to stop the fighting Illini, Indiana to take tough Iowa, Alabama to beat Kentucky but not without trouble, Duquesne to rebound against Manhattan, Marquette to top Arizona, Great Lakes to down Michigan State, Minnesota to take Michigan in the upset of the day, Mississippi to beat Arkansas by two touchdowns, and Missouri to massacre Iowa State.

Georgia Tech should be able to handle the Navy, Ohio State and Northwestern rate about even with Waldorf's men looking like a good upset bet, Oklahoma A & M to slip past Washington, Nebraska to beat Oklahoma. Washington State to slip past Oregon State, Oregon to nose out Idaho, Colgate to defeat Penn State, Pennsylvania to crush Columbia, Pittsburg to outlast Duke, Brown to conquer Princeton, Purdue to fall before Wisconsin, Texas to ride over Rice, Southern California to take a stiff one from Stanford, Syracuse to defeat Cornell, Tennessee to wallop Furman, Tulane to be one touchdown better than North Carolina, Santa Clara to beat UCLA, Utah to defeat Denver, Vanderbilt to slap down Centre, Washington to take a thriller from California, Ft. Riley to beat Wichita, and Dartmouth to conquer Yale.

As for the game at Manhattan tomorrow, for the first time since the Denver game the Jayhawks can be given a chance on more than mere sentiment. This column expects the Kansas squad to take the Aggies into camp by about one touchdown on the basis of superior line play. A lot depends upon that throwing arm of Ray Evans, and we are backing him to have a good day. Hoyt Baker, sophomore quarterback, may also take a hand in the scoring chores. He is the most dangerous broken-field runner on Gwinn Henry's squad.

"This Hall must have been nuts or must have gotten his information from somebody who is off the beam," was the way one student commented upon the charges made by the Texas sports writer against the University administrator. That seems to be the attitude of the student body toward the charge almost without exception. Blaming the Chancellor for what happens on the football field is like blaming the governor of Nebraska for what happens in Missouri, one student declared. There is considerable speculation as to the source of Hall's information.
JUNIOR BACKS---
(continued from page one) left by the injury to Gene Long. Lewis Musick will probably start at the other guard position for Joe Crawford, just recently out of the hospital.
Coach Henry indicated that Otto Schnellbacher will once again get the starting nod at left end over George Dick. Junius Penny will probably be the starting center after his brilliant performance last week
Biggest surprise in the Aggie starting lineup was the failure of coach Ward Haylett to name Zeleznak. Instead the starting call at the quarterback post will go to Harry "the Hare" Merriman, sophomore scooter back, who tips the scale at a bare 140 pounds.
Rounding out the starting Aggie backfield will be Chet Peters, junior blocking back; Bill Quick, senior triple-threat ace; and Earl Williams, one of the best fullbacks in the Big Six.
Haylett also indicated that he would revise his forward wall from the one which last week crumbled before the powerful Missouri Tiger attack. Several men including fullback Charlie Kier who were kept on the sidelines last Saturday by injuries will be ready for action tomorrow.
The game will find two hapless
elevenes, deep in the throes of a disastrous season, attempting to salvage something from their fall's activities by a victory over their state rival. There is less to choose between the two teams this fall than at any time in recent years, with both squads having suffered repeated setbacks by one-sided margins.
The Aggies opened the season with a 37 to 6 triumph in a breather over little Kansas Wesleyan, and then met lop-sided defeats in the hands of Texas, Ft Riley, Duquesne,
and Missouri. Meanwhile in four straight games this fall, Gwinn Henry's charges have massed but six points, while their opponents tallied 158.
Big Six observers rate the game as the contest which will decide the conference cellar occupant.
Expected to aid Evans some with the Kansas scoring chores is sophomore Hoyt Baker, who looked good last week against Oklahoma and has continued his fine work this week in practice sessions. Frosty Wilson, junior blocking back, may see action tomorrow and cause the Wildcats plenty of trouble. Harlan Altman, injured back, may be available for limited service.
Altman Available
I am a passionate football player. I love to play and want to be a part of the team. I believe in teamwork and sportsmanship.
CLIF MAKALOUS Kansas State Guard
Jayhawk victory hopes, however, lay principally in the supposition that the Kansas forward wall is somewhat stronger than the Wildcat front line. The injuries to the Kansas guards, however, may swing the balance in favor of the Aggie squad. Kansas linesmen such as Penny, big Warren Hodges, and Paul Hardman, nevertheless, should give the Wildcats plenty of trouble. Wildcat line standouts are end Jim Watkins and tackle Larry Duncan.
Jayhawks Hold Edge
The game—the Wildcat's Home-
coming affair—will mark the fortieth meeting between the two schools. The Jayhawks have taken 23 of the previous contests, while three have ended in wins. In the past ten years, however, the Aggies have taken six of the contests. Last year the Jayhawkers came from behind repeatedly to take a 20 to 16 thriller.
Both teams will take the field handicapped by a shortage of reserves. Perhaps on the Jayhawk side of the ledger, the replacement situation is

"It itused to be "Phog" Allen—now it's Harvard!" was the comment R. J. Uplinger, a former Jayhawk, made at the top of a newspaper clipping containing the Sports Roundup article charging Chancellor Deane W. Malott with responsibility for the Kansas football situation. The clipping was from the Syracuse Herald-Journal, and was sent by Uplinger to the Daily Kansan.
The paper had headlined the column-"Harvard man is a success at Kansas," "In football at least, his new school copies alma mater."

Dean D. M. Swarthout of the School of Fine Arts was host to members of the A Capella choir at a lawn party at his home, 1605 Crescent road. Games and group singing made up the evening's entertainment. Clayton Krehbiel, social chairman, was in charge.

Big Six Squads In Three Tilts This Weekend
For the first time this fall all Big Six clubs will be engaged in conference activity tomorrow afternoon, with interest focussed on the Nebraska-Oklahoma game at Norman. From that game is expected to come Missouri's challenger for Big Six honors this fall.
Observers are inclined to give Nebraska a one-touchdown edge in a game which has all the earmarks of the Big Six's best contest this season.
Not to be overlooked, however, are the Sooners, who with a relegated offense have in practice sessions this week been displaying both running and passing prowess. Sparking the Oklahoma attack is superback Huel Hamm, and upon whether he has a good day or not largely depends the outcome of the game. If Hamm is hot, the Sooner backfield will be hard to stop. There has never been any question of the sturdy Oklahoma line.
The Nebraska squad is young and fast, and, while something of a disappointment last week against Minnesota, is still highly regarded. Backs of Zikmund and Bradley's caliber might possibly crack the tough Sooner line.

Beta's Outclass Sigma Nu Team In 34-0 Victory
Attacking with deadly might and accuracy, Beta Theta Pi mauled Sigma Nu 34-0 in one of last night's intramural touch football battles.
As the Betas walked away from their outclassed oponents, the stellar performances of Short, Dichl, O'Neal, Pierce, Hartley, and Hall shone. Goodell, Park, Car Perkins and Isreal starred for the Sigma Nu's, but were unable to do any decisive damage against the fast working Betas.
On the first play after the initial kickoff the Betas recovered a fumble deep in Sigma Nu territory and within two plays had reached their objective. The following kickoff was also fumbled and this time the Betas recovered on the 4-yard line. The Sigma Nu's stopped this drive but the Betas had tasted blood and were on their way to a deliberate victory.
Battenfield marched over the Ramblers in their game 40-6. The proud six man team consisted of Thayer, Nemec, Neustrom, Jennison. Reardon, Matassarin, McDonald and Hays, the latter two substitutions, met with little trouble although Spencer of the Ramblers marked up 6 points for his team.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon won from Delta Tau Delta 20-4. Musser, Winters, Williams, and Walton scored for the victorious Sig Eps while Arthur and Stapleton, split up the Delta Tau counters.
The Tennessee Club forfeited their Thursday game to Kappa Eta Kappa
Delta Upsilon fell before Tau Kappa Epsilon 13-6 in probably the hardest fought game of the dav.

State coach, makes it plain that while he is not predicting a victory over Missouri tomorrow at Columbia, that such a result is not regarded as an impossibility. The Cyclone mentor has made a couple of changes in his starting lineup which he hopes will add punch to the backfield. It will be up to Cyclone ace Royal Lohry to match the efforts of Missouri's Bob Steuber, if Iowa State is to make a close game of the contest.
At Manhattan, Kansas and Kansas State clash in a game which will probably decide the Big Six cellar occupant for the present season. Pregame doe rates the teams about even, with injuries possibly being the deciding factor. Both squads have men who may be kept on the bench by injuries.
Observer are confident that after Saturday's battles are over, at least one point will be settled—whether Missouri will have a breeze of it to conference honors. That point will be at Norman.

JOHN BORTKA Kansas State Halfback
Once again John Bortka, Kansas State halfback, will be opposing his former Wyandotte High School teammate, Ray Evans, on the gridiron tomorrow afternoon. The two former teammates are also rivals now in Jayhawk-Aggie clashes on the basketball court. Both men are keymen in their school's football and basketball squads.
Cyclones Prepare To Stop Missouri Star Bob Steuber
Ames, Iowa. Oct. 23—There's plenty of respect for Missouri in the Iowa State football camp but there's no awe of the might which has elevated the Tigers to a place among the nation's scoring leaders.
From Mike Michalske right through the entire squad there is the admiration such a scoring machine deserves, but the Cyclones are of the opinion that past performances mean little now. Not that any of the boys are rash enough to predict a Cyclone upset of the defending champions in the Big Six. That's the hope, of course, but right now the boys are much more interested in making things as tough or Missouri as possible when the two teams clash at Columbia Saturday.
Bob Steuber, left halfback for the Tigers, is the nation's leading individual scorer. He'll probably add to his lead Saturday but the Cyclone line intends to make the big 200-pounder earn every point he makes. Big and elusive, the speedy Steuber left a memory last year for the Cyclones to erase in the form of one or two of his patented cut-backs for long touchdowns. That's the job the team faces this week—stop Steuber.

Conditioning Is Stressed For Women Students
Plans for extensive women's intramural activities are well under way
"In these times, it is exceedingly important that we put ourselves in the best physical conditioning in order to give our best to the war effort," Miss Hoover, head of the women's intramural activities, said today.
With volley ball the chief interest, 16 teams have been organized this fall. The finals of the intramural tournament now in progress will take place Nov. 2. Tenis finals will be Oct. 27.
Tournament points count toward the intramural trophy, which the Kappa's won last year. A modal is also given to the two women with the highest number of points, one from organized houses and one from the independent students.
Basketball and table tennis singles and doubles are scheduled for the second fall term, badminton and swimming will be featured in the first spring term, and softball and tennis doubles will be emphasized in the second spring term.
"We have a few of the individual and dual activities because of crowded conditions," Miss Hoover explained, "However, there are enough group activities for everyone."
Because of transportation difficulties, the state hockey play day has been eliminated. The class hockey team, however, meets at 4:30. Mondays and Wednesdays, and the advanced hockey team is at 4:30. Tuesdays and Thursdays.
It is not too late for interested persons to join hockey class.
Intramural managers as announced by Miss Hoover are Gamma Phi Beta, Roberta McCluggage; Kappa Alpha Theta, Dorothy Frizzell; Watkins hall, Althea Shuss; Co-op Kathrine Schaake, Delta Gamma; Betty Van Blarcom; Kappa Kappa Van Peggy Ballard; Miller hall, Francis Gillman; Pi Beta Phi, Jill Peck; Independents, Marion Eisele;Alpha Chi Omega, Lucile Gillee; Corbin hall, Phyllis Struble; Sigma Kappa, Doris Loye Wagy; Alpha PI, Jeanne Haycock; IWW, Francis Davison and LaVone Jacobson; Chi Omega, Dorothy Burkhead.

Our Scrap for the Scrap
The Men's Student Council has decided to sponsor a continuation of the Hill scrap drive which has been under the direction of the Co-ed Volunteer Corps.
The original intention of the MSC was to promote a separate one-day drive on Oct. 31 as a part of Homecoming activities. This plan to make the 1942 Homecoming patriotic was commendable, but much can be said also for the Council's decision to continue the present drive for another two weeks.
Not without the full cooperation of University students can such a task be accomplished. The presidents of organized houses should feel it their duty to support the drive by appointing, if they have not done so already, scrap committees to search their houses and grounds for all types of old metal.
The Co-ed Volunteers did a commendable job. The sizable pile of scrap in front of Fowler shops is evidence of their success. Yet, many of the University's scrap possibilities are as yet untapped, particularly those in men's organized houses. By an efficient, well-planned campaign, the MSC should be able to add to the scrap heap considerably.
The University is doing its utmost for the war effort—all the more reason she should not fail in this one part of it.-R.C.
Too Small to Help?
The small businessman has been complaining ever since the defense program began. He says he is being ignored in his desire to aid the war effort and that the War department is passing him up in awarding of contracts.
Democrat Representative Kopplemann of Connecticut traces the beginning of the discrimination against small industries back to the time when, in the interest of speed, the senate voted in the practice of negotiating contracts instead of competing for them.
Last week the friction between little industries and the War department reached a verbal battle when chairman Murray of the senate small business committee accused Lt. Gen. Brehon Somervell of continuing to exclude small business from contribution to war production by favoring only big firms with contracts.
General Somervell answered by saying that every effort was being made to utilize small plant facilities and that small industries will be awarded contracts for simple items whenever possible, to give the large plants more time and room for the production of complex items.
He denied that plants had been overexpanded and stated that production is still far below the needs of the War department. He pointed out that, consequently, existing production must not be held up merely to help the small businesses.
Governor Payne Ratner recently expressed the opinion to the senate committee on small business that soon thousands of small businesses will be completely wiped out unless they are allowed to engage in war production. He stated that he thought communities in Kansas and other states will never recover from the economic shock they will suffer unless measures are taken to protect these small businesses from bankruptcy.
Governor Ratner reported 135 metal working shops, about 35 gray iron and non-ferrous foundations, approximately 43 wood working shops and several fabric processing shops in Kansas which will gladly contribute to war production if offered the opportunity. With half a chance, small business can give a muchneeded boost to war production.-P.B.

How could such an astute organization as the German propaganda ministry have overlooked the use of a few expert female gossip-mongers to spread its poison?

BETTY LOU PERKINS
While Mary Morrill, Kappa, was trying to put the initials KK G on a notebook belonging to Bill Kanaga, Phi Delt, in Rhetoric class the other day, the teacher, Mr. Emery, was writing sentences to explain clauses and phrases.
At this point, Mr. Emery wrote on the board, "Did she approve of your kissing her, Mr. Kanaga?" Mr. Kanaga turned a deep red. The others in the class enjoyed it.
Mr. Emery went on to say that kisses were considered nice by some people, but in his opinion, they spread germs and—killed bachelors!
How Rhetoric classes have changed since my day!

Snipe Season's on!
Vard Nelson, TKE pledge, was taken on a gigantic snipe hunt the other night by his more-than-willing fraternity brothers. Vard was enthusiastic about the hunt; he even read up on the ways and means of killing snipes. He polished his guns. He told the cook not to order meat for the next day. He even told the cook that he would like the snipes cooked wrapped in bacon with stuffed prunes.
About 11 o'clock Nelson was taken out into West Hills and told to wait. He had a gun, a cartridge belt, and a flashlight. Eagerly, Nelson went to work.
At two o'clock a weary, cold, but somewhat wiser Vard Nelson appeared at the TKE house.
Snipes have been decidedly crossed off his list of game.

Virginia Brehm, Kappa, was assigned in Mr. Reigh's Rhetoric class the writing of a theme on "How To Avoid the Goodnight Clinch."
Virginia was unable to think of a thing at the moment, so class members considered the fact that if she didn't know how to avoid them—then that left only one alternative.

Quiet Prevails
New Regime at Library
Among Freshmen
Whoever started that nasty rumor about women not being able to stop talking is out somewhere about now having a good blush.
He slipped away from the limelight around the middle of last week when freshmen women—190 of them—all pledges of Greek letter organizations, began staging hush acts between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. five days a week in Watson library. This action completely exploded Whoever's theory which associated the female organ of speech with the principles of perpetual motion. So he left.
It must be admitted the quiet which now reigns practically supreme at sorority study tables in the library is not an original idea of the pledges who study thereat. No Talking Say Upperclassmen
The no talking plan has been devised by older fraternity and sorority members who are interested in keeping the library quiet for their own studying comfort.
If the pledges themselves had been consulted for a possible means of eliminating the problem of row-diness, they undoubtedly would have done a much more complete job of solving the problem by dismissing freshman study all altogether and giving actives free sweep of the silent library halls.
Pledges from B.C. ad infinitum
have been and are doomed to spend their time out of the classroom during the day in the library studying. Herein arose the difficulty of the past weeks. Freshmen of 1942 seemed to think that although the library was a fine place, it wasn't just the most interesting establishment on the hill especially after a 4-hour siege. Unless of course, one's visit was pepped up by indulgence in such freshman vices as whispering, paper wad-throwing, note passing, oye winking etc. etc.
Quietest Defiled
After the first few days of the fall term, in which according to hearsey, some new students actually tried to study, these pastimes became common among freshmen and

To Camouflage Campus
Defense Course Aim
Camouflaging the campus is the ultimate laboratory project of students enrolled in the new two hour defense course in which instruction is given in camouflage technique.
Each student is given a picture of the campus taken from the air. He will be able to plan his form of camouflage with the idea of its appearance to an enemy flier. T. D. Jones, assistant professor of design and coordinator of the course, said that the object of camouflage today is not so much to conceal the objective as to confuse the enemy bombardier.
of design and coordinator of the course, said that the object of camouflage is not so much to conceal the object as to confuse the enemy bombardier.
Lab Work in Spooner-Thayer
Fifty-six students are enrolled in course which meets 7 p.m. every day and Wednesday in room 109 Marvin hall. So far, the course has consisted primarily of lecture material, but facilities for lab work have been made available in the subbasement of Spooner-Thayer museum.
The importance of the shadow has led to experimenting with the heliodon sun lamp, invented by George M. Beal, professor of architecture, now with the armed forces. Mr. Beal, who is among those collaborating on the course, is able to detect with his instrument the shadows a building will cast at any latitude in any season of the year.
Fletcher McCord, assistant professor of psychology, has lectured on the psychology of vision. To the flyer, color is no longer important. Distance impells him t depend on values -tints and shades of black and white.
ROTC Men To Help In Field
Aerial photography enables flight observers to be certain of their sight. The camera can detect camouflage where the human eye would be ineffective. H. T. Smith, assistant professor of geology, has illustrated the importance of elements in the landscape, aerial observation and the interpretation of aerial photographs.
Mr. Jones has prepared a series of lecture studies on principles of obscurement and deception. He is assisted by Capt. Elverson E. Baker, professor of military science, who will lecture on two types of camouflage, now given news priminance, the blackout and the dimout. Students in ROTC will participate in camouflage field work. This field work is under the direction of Bernard Frazier, instructor of design, who will also conduct a study of mode's from overhead observation.
Natural camouflage materials and foliage of various environment will be subject to discussion during the lectures by Worthie Horr, associate professor of botany. Observation problems and scale will be taught by N. W. Storer, associate professor of physics. Camouflage as it affects the liner will be demonstrated by Clarence Stillwell, instructor of Engineering. Protective coloration in nature and other principles will be demonstrated by Carl Mattern, associate professor of drawing and painting, together with the two researchers of the department of design who handle different phases of the field of color.
This course, among others offered
in cooperation with the program for defense education has been arranged as suggested by the Office of Civilian Defense.
Varied Art Exhibits In Two Galleries Of Spooner-Thayer
The north and south galleries of Spooner-Thayer museum are now filled with new exhibits, composed of water colors, oil paintings, block prints, sculpture, and photographs. The work represents talent of Mexicans, Filipinos, Germans, and Americans, including two local artists.
In the larger north gallery are block prints on sateen material, made by Mexican, Filipino, and American children, 9 to 12 years of age.
Next to the chilren's exhibit in the smaller north gallery, are black and white photographs, made by Prof. Harnann of Marburg, Germany in 1939 during an expedition in Egypt
Subject matter of the 20 photographs are divided into three groups—life, architecture, and sculpture. The exhibit includes pictures of hieroglyphs, Ramses II, temple of Rames II, relics from the tombs, and present day animal and human life.
In the south gallery is a sculptured figure. "Rebekah," with her long sweeping lines and water jar carried on her shoulder, went on exhibit yesterday. The sculptor, Bernard Fischer, instructor in architecture and design, created the piece from the Biblical character.
The students, most of whom have accepted the positions and will appear for work upon graduation in February or May, are William Mathews, Walter Y. Thomas, Donald Nigg, Louise Polson, Carl Perkins, James L. Cox, Gerald Knabe, Dan Brune, Eldon Sams, Marvin Sollenberger, Warren Snyder, and John Romary.
The Coral colored "Rebekah," standing 36 inches high, is surrounded by oil paintings and water colors by Karl Mattern, professor of drawing and painting. Scenes from New York and Kansas and figure drawings by Mr. Mattern fill the room with contrasting media.
Twelve Seniors Get Aeronautical Jobs
Twelve seniors of the School of Engineering were offered positions with the Curtis-Wright corporation in the interviews conducted recently by R. L. Autan, special representative of the company, said Dean J. J. Jakosky, who received the announcement by telegram.
Dr. J. W. Twente, dean of the School of Education, will speak on "problems of the Classroom Teacher" at a meeting of the Reno County Teacher's Association in Hutchinson Saturday.
Each man will work in one of Curtis-Wright's 16 factories located in the United States.
Former Law Dean
★ ★ ★
Writes Novel
Philip Mechem, acting dean of the School of Law in 1928-29, has written a mystery novel, "And Not For Love," which will be published this month.
Mechem is now associated with the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C., and is the author of "Cases on Agency," a legal classic.
During his four years at the University from 1925 to 1929, Mechem progressed from associate professor to professor to acting dean of the School of Law.
The author of "And Not For Love" has taught at many universities, including the Universities of Iowa, Idaho, Kansas, Michigan, Wisconsin, Southern California, Stanford, and Washington.
Mechem was graduated from the Hotchkiss School in 1911, from Harvard College in 1915 and received his bachelor of laws degree in 1922 from the University of Colorado and his doctor of juristic science in 1925 from the University of Chicago.
Paul Woolpert Given A. K. Psi Medallion
Paul Woolpert, business senior, was awarded the Alpha Kappa Psi's medalion as the past year's outstanding junior in the School of Business, Dean F. T. Stockton of the School of Business, announced today. The award was made at the school's smoker last night in the men's lounge of the Union building
Mr. Louis Kleinhaus, assistant manager of the Hercules Powder Company at the Sunflower Ordnance Works, was the principal speaker. He spoke on the operation of the plant.
Smith to Talk on Cryptography

GUILD PREVAILS
Mr. Baker forthwith appeared before women's Pan-Hellenic and explained the situation to the immediate superiors of the glib freshmen (At this point one is not to surmise complaints of girl piedges only were turned in.) Serious minded upper-classmen reported the male of the species to be as loquacious as the female and even more deadly with paper wads.
The time came when complaints were voiced to the powers that be of the library. C. M. Baker, library director was informed that the confusion in the study rooms was approaching chaos (not that he already hadn't noticed) and that no one on the Hill would make his grades if something weren't done.
The librarian met with cooperation on every side and was asked to check carefully on pledge deportment in the future for any sign of improvement.
No one knows exactly what happened the night following that Pan-Hell conference, but it must have been good. The hush of the proverbial night before Christmas couldn't have been more complete than that which hung over 10 sorority study tables the next day. It was really amazing. Even Mr. Baker thought so.
Reficence Reigns
★ Letters to the Editor
★
★
A scrap drive has been in progress on the Hill for more than two weeks, sponsored first by the CVC and now by the MSC. Still the pile seems too small to represent the best efforts of a student body the size of ours.
It has been said, truthfully perhaps, that individual college students are likely to possess little vital scrap. But, on the other hand, there are few organized houses — houses in which supplies and equipment are purchased and replaced collectively — which do not have some junked or waste items that could be of value to us in our war effort.
The campaign is on, and a scrap pile has been placed in a central location on the campus; all that remains for us to do is to scour our houses and contribute our scrap to the heap.
Why doesn't each of us take it upon himself to expend what little effort it will take to help? The citizens of every community are doing their part; we college students should "get in the scrap."
Now We Can Study
And that's the story of the library's hush. What started out to be the worst year in the building's history, will continue as the most serene, if freshmen only keep their book marks in the new leaf. (Chances are they will.) As one french said, "It's remarkable how much one
A few days later the librarian appeared before Men's Pan-Hellenic. Again the cooperation of active Greeks was whole-hearted. Their freshmen would be quiet or else. No more need be said here concerning the manner in which silence came to fraternity tables.

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges'
Tomorrow is Parent's Day at Bradley Tech in Peoria, Ill. Parent's Day this year will consist primarily of a conference with parents on the general theme, "What Every Parent Should Know About the War."
In the evening, students and parents will attend the Bradley-St. Ambrose football game and will sit together in a special section. Parent's Day has been scheduled earlier than previously intended and has been cut from two days to one because of wartime conditions, imminent gasoline rationing, and the accelerated program.
University of Utah students have been urged by the university employment bureau to devote two days weekly to the harvesting of the sugar beet crop in the area surrounding Salt Lake county.
Need Students in Harvest
The appeal came as a result of a plea by the United States Employment Service for university students to work Saturday and Sunday for which they will be paid with a minimum wage of $1 per ton harvested. Apple-Pickers at Washington
A thousand student-pickers from the University of Washington helped save a 60-million-dollar apple crop in the Yakima and Wenatchee valleys last week.
Thirty men and seventeen coed squad leaders were assigned to handle the 1000 student pickers. The two groups—one for Wenatchee and the other for Yakima, left on special trains,' with one faculty-supervisor for each train.

The Community chest drive, which is now in progress, is another cause for the postponement, P f Buehler said.

BY J. DONALD KEOWN
Kansan Sports Editor
Manhattan, Oct. 24.—(Special)—Paced by Ray Evans who ran and passed with deadly accuracy the Kansas Jayhawkers downed Kansas State 19-7, in Memorial stadium this afternoon before 7,000 Homecoming Day spectators.
The brilliant Evans reversed his usual procedure of offense passing only seven times. But he completed five aerials mostly in the second half. Along with Fullback Ed Linquist and Quarterback Hoyt Baker, Evans led Kansas' most potent running attack of the year. Paul Hardman, Junitus

Indecisive Draw Ends Frolic Vs. Game Feud
Consequently it is impossible to determine whether Jayhawk grid-iron heroes are more popular than the fresh and Jan Saviti—and the struggle ends in a draw.
Comparing figures referees Meguiar and McSpadden find that the number of students favoring each function is in ratio with previous years, neither having gained in popularity over the other.
The day after has dawned, and the final bout of that all important battle between Kansas State game and Freshman Frolic for top notch place in the student body's interest has ended—in a draw. Larry McSpadden, dance manager and Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, arrived at this conclusion in the wee hours of the morning after a careful check on the vital statistics of both competing attractions.
Since those 60 women, 20 of whom made a two-night stand at K-State aren't scheduled to return to the campus until sometime this afternoon, and the situation is likewise with male football fans, a complete report on the game and its added attractions is not yet available. The success of the freshman frolic, however, has been announced for publication. Dance Manager McSpadden doesn't think such a solid dance has been thrown on the hill since the seniors entertained at Hoch back in '39 by presenting Kay Kyser.
According to the record book, about 900 students danced or watched others who danced in Hoch auditorium last night as Jan Savitt gave forth with his best, and the frolic spirit ran high among upper classmen as well $ ^{*} $
as frosh. Also on file are permits from 69 pairs of parents sanctioning weekends in Manhattan for their daughters, and an estimate that well over 150 men students were in the Silo Tech-bound procession.

Lulli Is Still Single No Bluebeard
Bv
T. Scott Cadden
"CARAMBA!"
"Theees ess horreeble! I must estableesh my innocence at once! My reputation has been tarnished!"
Thus spoke Senor Antonio F. Lulli, South American exchange student from Lima, Peru.
"Evereone theenks that I am married. They theenk I am a "Bluebeard.'"
It seems that the rumor had gotten around the Hill that almost all of the dashing young South American men of Senor
Lulli's age are married by the time they reach 20. Naturally, the only conclusion to draw was that this Peruvian was no different from the rest.
Antonio, or "To-To" as he is called by his friends related the conversational trend when calling a sorority house—
Antonio: "Hello", thees ees Lulli speaking."
Girl: "Who?"
Antonio: "Lulli! Antonio F. Lulli!
I am an exchange student from Lima,
Perul!"
Girl: "Oh yes, I've heard of you." Antonio: "Oh have you? That ees good! I was wondering eef you would like to get a coke or a pineapple soda or something."
Girl: "Well, Mr. Lulli, I'd just love to go but I'm afraid I can't. I'm sorry. Good by."
"Well, thes sort of thing occurred several times and I began to wonder ef I was repulsive," said Lulli. "Every seengle time, they would sound all excited until I gave them my name. Then they would sort of clear their throats and say 'Oh, I'm sorree, Mr. Lulli, but I have a date alreadee', or 'I'm sorree, Mr. Lulli, but my roomate ees sick and I just can't leave her.'"
"And then, the other day a girl asked me how mane times I had been married and the light become clear to me. I have been regarded as a cad!"
With tears in his eyes, "To-To" came to us and asked us to please make known the fact that he was not a cad, that he was not a "Bluebeard," and that he was very much interested in "these North American babes."
GIRLS: It is hereby authentically announced that Senor Antonio F. Lulli is not married.

OPA Has Ceiling On Student Rooms
Washington—(ACP)Students living in rooming houses, fraternity houses or commercially operated dormitories which are located within certain "defense rental areas" are entitled to the benefit of OPA ceiling on rents, the Office of Price Administration announced.
They cannot be charged a higher rent than they paid in the 30 days prior to the maximum rental date established for their area by OPA—a date which varies according to area and stretches as far back as Jan.1,1941. This applies to rooming houses in 135 out of nearly 400 "defense rental areas" subject to overall rent control.
Under OPA regulations, the landlord is obligated to provide the same services, sheets, towels, and soap. for example, as he did in the 30-day period without additional charge. If he supplied board along with room and charged a lump sum, he is now obliged to render separate accounts so that the rental figure may not be disguised. The price of meals does not come under the ceiling. If he rented a room to only one person in the base period, he cannot place another in the room without reducing the rent of the first occupant.
Students living in college-owned or operated dormitories do not come under the rent ceiling, according to present regulations although OPA has the authority to include them if it is deemed vital to the general rent control program.
The University of Nebraska is about to begin preparation of aeronautics textbooks for use in high schools throughout the nation.
600 Colleges Prepare Pilots
(ACP) Tens of thousands of men are learning to fly at some 600 of the nation's colleges this year, preparing to serve in Army and Navy aviation.
However, not all the pilot trainees are regular students—college facilities have been opened to all who can meet requirements of the Civil Aeronautics Administration. Any man who can pass the mental and physical examination is eligible, although all trainees must enlist in the reserve of the Army or Navy air forces.
Most Navy reservists are slated to be combat pilots and must meet the standard requirements of Naval Aviation Cadet Selection Boards. They may be college students taking training under the V-1 or V-5 plans.
All Army reservists in the CAA program take their training on a full-time basis and must be men who are ineligible as combat pilots because of their age or minor physical defects. Age limits are 18 through 36. If he's under 27 an applicant must have been rejected from combat pilot training.
In the CCA-Army program five types of pilots are being trained: Glider; Liason—spotter for field artillery and other similar pobs; Instructor—transport oo-pilot either for the Army Air Transport Command, or on one of the airplanes working with it; Service pilot—towing targets or gliders, short hauls of men and materials.
CAA trainees progress through elementary, secondary, cross-country, link-instrument and flight officer or instructor courses. Each course lasts eight weeks. Trainees may be called by the Army or Navy for further training or active duty at any stage of the courses.
After call by the services they may qualify for a commission.
An urgent call is going out from the Civil Service Commission for women fliers. Those who have earned private pilot licenses are wanted "at once" for Junior Ground School instructor jobs paying $2,000 a year.
No age limits, no written test although women pilots already doing war work demanding equal skill shouldn't apply.
Get application form 57 at your postoffice or write the Commission here for one. Once filled out, the form should be sent to the Regional Director, Tenth Civil Service Region, New Orleans, La.

Come in today and enjoy our Sunday special Southern Fried Chicken Dinner
Despite the fact that sailors on Mt. Oread are now being granted out of town weekend leaves, the University co-ed need not scratch Saturday night's annual service men's dance from her K—book. The dances in the community building will continue, and only a slight decreased number of service men are expected as weekly guests.
Chaperoned by members of the individual organizations which sponsor them, the dances are conducted according to accepted USO regulations.
WIEDEMANN'S GRILL
An average of 150 men have been attending every Saturday night to dance, or play ping pong, checkers and other games.
Mrs. O. W. Maloney, who is coordinating efforts on the Hill with those of workers in town to make the Saturday evening recreation periods successful, has announced that a definite number of college women will not be requested to serve as hostesses at dances for several weeks: As soon, however, as the number of women needed can be determined, co-eds will be called upon regularly to assist at the Saturday evening social events.
The dances, Mrs. Maloney announces, have proved popular both with service men and with the girls who assist in sponsoring them.
In the meantime a group of junior hostesses which has been active all summer under the supervision of Mrs. Laurence Woodruff will continue to officiate at the dance although any authorized college woman is welcome to assist at her own provocation.
Before a girl is authorized to serve as a hostess she must have her parent's permission and a written statement of recommendation from two prominent individuals. Once authorized, a hostess goes to the dances without an escort and leaves without one. Permits for CVC members and otehr college women to attend the dances are now being obtained through Miss Elizabeth Meguai's office. Thirty-nine permits have been issued.
First Issue Jayhawker Out Nov.3
The first issue of the Jayhawker magazine will be distributed Nov. 3, it was announced yesterday by Sencer Burtis, college senior and editor.
The issue will feature such stories as "Willie Waits," a story by John Conard about the trials of a student through registration and enrollment; "The Experiences of Raymond Rushee III." by Dean Ostrum; "We Dood It," an article on sorority rush week, by Lila Jean Doughman; and "At Last," an article about the new Mineral Resources building, by Mary Morrill.
Articles and stories by Stan Kreider, Don Welly, Betty Perkins. Dean Sims, Joy Miller, and others will also be featured, Burtis said.
The cover of the Jayhawkwer will be a sketch of Hoch auditorium against a process yellow background, a type of cover different from any used before.
Geological Survey Men Participate in Wichita Conference
J. M. Jewett and Philip Kaiser represented the State Geological Survey at the Wichita conference of the Independent Petroleum Association of America last week.
Exhibits taken from the Survey showed the process of extracting aluminum from clay and the new lightweight bricks for refractories. Another exhibit sent to the meeting was a large V for victory, one side made up of Kansas maps and the other a ribbon. Recent bulletins which have been put out by the Survey on "Mineral Resources in Wartime Industries" were passed out.
The new lightweight bricks, made of clay and sawdust, was of interest to the Petroleum Association since refractories are necessary in refining oil.

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
The current issue of Collier's contains an interesting article by Tom Siler entitled "Football Ad Libbers," which tells exactly nothing about the contents of the article. It deals with the art of quarterbacking, and more specifically with signal-callers who have on the field of play devised plays on the spur of the moment—sometimes resulting in great successes, sometimes in disaster. As two of the better quarterbacks in recent football history Siler gives us Frankie Albert and Sid Luckman, both brilliant signal-callers with plenty of imagination. There was some complaint earlier in the season concerning Jayhawk signal-calling on just that count—lack of imagination. One team member complained that he could sit on the bench and without error call off the Jayhawk plays before they were run. Signal-calling, however, has showed a definite improvement of late.

Football is definitely a question-mark here for next fall, for the decision as to whether the grid sport will be attempted again next year is still yet to be made, and there is plenty of doubt in the minds of school officials. The calling into service of 18 and 19-year olds seems to many observers to be the death blow to the sport for the duration. Should football be attempted in the Big Six conference again next fall, it is likely that freshmen will be made eligible for competition. From the reserve situation on many conference teams this fall, it seems that there was a mistake made when freshmen were not made eligible for varsity competition this year. Many of the football squads are the smallest in many, many a year.
$$

$$
Some sports writers are already beginning to speculate on all Big Six squads with the conference race not yet half over. One man they are already marking down as a cinch in anybody's backfield is Missouri's speedster, Bob Steuber, who is also a strong candidate for all-American honors. The Jayhawk's Ray Evans is a strong candidate for one of the other backfield positions. From the Sooners come Huell Hamm, Eddie Davis, and Bill Campbell as backfield possibilities. Nebraska offers tricky Al Zikmund and Dale Bradley. Bradley, with Steuber, was a member of last fall's quartet: Iowa State's Royal Lohrry will be difficult to beat out. From Kansas State comes nominations for Earl Williams and Mike "Jug" Zelenek.

Smashed from side to side by a profusion of fast punches especially by Sue Elliott of the Chi Omega line-up and Peggy Davis of the Theta's, the ball was never allowed to rest.
Kappa Alpha Theta's fought for a hard won victory against the Kappa Kappa Gamma's 21 to 17, Thursday night in Robinson Gym.
It was by far the most thrilling game this year as the narrow margin plainly shows. Both teams were undefeated before they met to play off their division's championship.
Chi Omega's won the last championship division game defeating the Pi Phi's 35 to 25. Both Donna Burkhead, Chi Omega and Barbara Winn, Pi Phi, performed skillfully.
The winners of Thursday's division championships will meet for the semi-finals at 9 p.m. tomorrow along with Corbin hall and IWW, champions of their respective divisions.

Goal-Hi In Camps
The goal's greatest strides have been made in water polo. Today nearly all water polo courts also use Dr. Allen's goal.
Founded In Backyard
The idea for Goal-Hi originated in the Allen backyard. Dr. Allen's sons, Milton and Bob, who made basketball history at the University, had a basketball goal in the backyard mounted on a wooden post. Since the post would not remain firmly imbedded in the ground there was always the danger of the goal falling and injuring one of the par-
Is Now World's Fastest Growing Competitive Game
"Also, the goal can be dismantled and hauled in the family car to picnic grounds, where Goal-HI is taking the place of horse shoes," Dr. Allen continued.
(continued to page five)
Goal-Hi, the game invented by Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, is spreading so rapidly that unofficial statistics point to it as the world's fastest growing game.
The game, invented three years ago, has caught on rapidly in the United States and also in the Latin American countries.

Kansas made it 19-0 in the final quarter on an Evans to Baker pass. The Aggies came back immediately
ans scored on the fourth down but a penalty nullified the touchdown and Kansas State held.
Goal-Hi is standard equipment for all Army and Navy training camps. Playgrounds all over the country have bought the goals, and the only reason that sales are falling off at press-
Earl Williams. Merriman and Mike Vargon led the overpowered Aggies, who never had a chance after Kansas' offense began clicking.
"Since the focus of activity is toward the basket and the ball is never out of bounds the game provides exercise that is very valuable to physical conditioning programs," Dr. Allen commented.
Both teams shoot at this one goal, and there are rules concerning the distance a player must be from the goal before he can attempt a shot.
ent is that the government has frozen the materials. The training camps are buying up the present supply of goals.
This new sport is a take-off of basketball. Standard equipment includes a basketball and a single goal that may be regulated to any height up to ten feet. The goal is an all-metal structure with only a ring at the top. It differs from the basketball goal in that Goal-Hi has no backboard and it has flaps on the bottom of the ring to deflect the ball as it falls through. These flaps add a touch of uncertainty to the game and this uncertainty as to where the ball will fall adds interest to the game.

Ah! Love Wheeler Tells Freshmen
Raymond Wheeler, professor of psychology, delivered a lecture entitled "Love and Marriage-Emotional Adjustments" to the freshman members of the YMCA and the YWCA at 4:30 Thursday afternoon in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building.
"Many a young man has fallen for a girl because of her physical charm, alone, to find later that her interests and capacities did not fit his life at all."
Prof. Wheeler emphasized that in choosing a mate, one should not permit physical attractiveness. alone, determine the choice.
He suggested that while a couple are still just good friends they should expand their horizons together. "Do serious things together, besides attend movies, dancing, and petting," proclaimed Prof. Wheeler. "Do something besides play. Study together. Find out each other's needs, habits. levels of intelligence. Discuss life in as many of its aspects as you can, religion, philosophy, politics, art, business, and literature. Learn about each other's cultural background and try to understand it, sympathize with it, and see how it has shaped your respective personalities and points of view," the speaker advised. "As certain how social you are, and how social your partner is. Find out, as the months go by, more about yourself. Inventory your habits, interests, aversions, and sympathies. Then make sure that you have important interests in common."
The talk was the last of a series made by various members of the faculty to aid freshmen in orientation problems.
Because tire rationing prohibits the University's annual State Hockey Play Day, a hockey squad will go to Baker University at Baldwin Tuesday afternoon.
Hockey Squad To Play At Baldwin Tuesday
The following girls will make up the squad: Edith Boehmer, Violet Conard, Betty Harman, Jean Boardman, Frances Davison, Mildred Wells, Marion Eisele, Lavone Jacobson, Cynthia Gilmer, Kathryn Schaake, Betty Bowen, Nancy Nevins, Mary Green, Marjorie Rader Mary Lee Chapple, and Maurine Blair.

Dr. Allen has also perfected a system whereby crippled children may play the game. In this style of play the court is zoned and players stationed in each zone. After one shoots the ball rolls to one of the other players thus eliminating the running that characterizes the other types of play.
Dr. Allen has received letters from soldiers in England telling him of the success of the game there.
To keep America's war plants rolling, we urgently need millions of additional tons of scrap iron and steel now.. We need more scrap rubber—now. And we need rags, burlap bags and manila rope in any condition.
X-Ray Reports, Not Films Available at Hospital
The announcement that appeared in the Kansan yesterday made by the Watkins Memorial hospital concerning the obtaining of x-ray pictures was erroneous, since no pictures are available. In place of the pictures are x-ray reports which were prepared by the Kansas State Board of Health. X-ray pictures are never given out nor sent out except to the student's family doctor. These reports may be obtained at the hospital during clinic hours by the student or a person with a signed statement from the student.

Sailors Bring New Language
A new course has been added to the Hill circumium—a language course that is required for women and necessary for men—if they wish to stay in the swim. So, all you laddies get aboard for lesson one in Navy Teminology—no credit given (in class).
First of all, let's get this time situation figured out. The time is very important. For instance, if you had a date with a sailor, (or were waiting for your girl to get back from a date with a sailor, be sure the sailor understands that you mean 11 o'clock closing hours, Central War Time and not eleven o'clock closing hours Navy Time. There is only one 11 o'clock Navy time and that is 11 a.m.
Navy time goes around the clock only once every 24 hours. It is designated by 0100,0200,0300 on up to 2400. One-thirty a.m. is written 0130, twelve-thirty midnight is written 0030. Twenty-four o'clock (12 p.m.) is also the zero hour. (000)
U. S. Naval Training School station is to the navy, a ship. Lieutenant Buhl, commanding officer, is the Captain. The doors are gangways, the step ladders, the beds bunks. The floors are decks with the basement below deck; the first floor, main deck; second floor, second deck; and third floor; top deck. The station wagon with the letters U. U. NAVY painted on the sides is a boat. To go into the station, the sailor goes "aboard," and to come out of the station a sailor goes "ashore."
Drinking fountains are to the University no longer water fountains—they are "Scuttle Butts." Field day is the Navy's term for a general ship (or station) cleaning. Usually every Friday.
Ropes, except in certain particular instances, are always called "lines" in the Navy, and they are always "made fast" or "belayed" instead of tied or fastened.
Also important to the college lad and lass is the difference between "on liberty" and "on leave." A liberty is a group of enlisted men entitled to, or on, shore leave. Usually the term is applied to brief absences from the ship, not to extended "vacations." Those who are entitled to long vacations are usually called "leave parties." "Liberty" does not exceed 24 hours.
To say everything is "shipshape" maens that all is well. The anonym of "shipshape is "Irish pennants."
Nickname of a sailor in "Mac." A coffee pot is a Jilpot" or "Joepot" and coffee is "Joe." A sailor is also a bluejacket." "Captain's mast" is a military court, and of course the 'brig' is the jail.
Rehearsals For Pumpkin Prom Begin Thursday
Cast and chorus rehearsals for the Pumpkin Prom stage show will begin next Thursday, Edith Ann Fleming, college junior, who with Bill Kelly, college senior, is directing the stage show, said today.
Rehearsals have not been scheduled until then because of conflicts with the "Meet the Talent" revue which is being given Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.
While no definite hours have been announced for the Nov. 7 show in Hoch auditorium, a full evening of activities has been planned, student Union activities committeemen said today. The Prom, an annual fall campus event, each year scrambles a stage show, a dance, and a carnival into one evening and one building to give a wide variety of choices for fun-seeking students.
Carnival booths are being made by sororites, fraternities, the CVC, the KuKus, and Jay Janes. Each group will put on a skit, or set up a penny-pitching booth, or a dart-throwing board, or run some other kind of carnival booth. Proceeds from several of the booths will be given to the CVC to add to its post-war scholarship fund.
Music for the dance will be furnished by Danny Bachman and his band, aided by the Modern Choir, will also play for the stage show.
The subject of the stage show will not be announced until the night of the production, but will have something to do with campus affairs, stage show directors say. The cast for the show has not been announced yet, Miss Fleming said.

Victorian Cabinets In Spooner-Thayer Display
Even royal furnishings of the Windsor castle are sold at auction. Two costly Boule cabinets, as proof, stand against the wall on the first stairs landing in Spooner-Thayer museum.
Soon after Queen Victoria died in 1901, the English royal family decided to redecorate the castle. In order to make room for new furniture various pieces of castle goods were sold. At this time, Mrs. William Thayer, who dedicated the Spooner-
Thayer museum in memory of her husband, made one of her four trips to Europe. Emergency Check
Tortoise shell and cut-out brass has been laid in mosaic patterns over the dark wood. This art of inlaying tortoise shell and brass was a specialty of Charles Boule. He would glue together two sheets of brass upon two sheets of tortoise shell and cut the outline of the design through all four layers. Having an equal number of replicas of the pieces which fit exactly, he would interchange the trimming, fitting tortoise shell in brass, or or brass in tortoise shell.
Before leaving the continent, Mrs. Thayer was given an "emergency check" of $2,000 by her husband, with instructions not to spend it unless some emergency arose. To Mrs. Thayer the purchasing of the Boule cabinets was an emergency. She spent the $2,000 for the two cabinets.
Inlaying Specialist
These cabinets of the Louis XVI period were made by the famous French workman, Charles Boule of the 18th century. The Boule's were famous as craftsmen of decorative woodwork. Black ebony wood was their favorite, so the material in the cabinets is solid ebony. Inlaying Specialist

Australia's Bulwark, New Guinea
Recent news dispatches from the headquarters of General Douglas MacArthur tell of the slackening pace of advance by Allied troops into the mountains of New Guinea, because of the difficult terrain.
Such an announcement is easily understood, for New Guinea, second largest island in the world, juts out of the South Pacific Ocean just north of Australia like the scaly back of some fabulous sea dragon. Its topography consists mainly of a long spine of jagged, jungle-covered mountain ridges, three miles high in places.
New Guinea, like Gaul, is divided into three parts. The western half is controlled by the Dutch, the eastern half by Australia; the Mandate of New Guinea, in the northern section the Australian half, is now mostly under Japanese occupation. The southern area, the Colony of Papua, is the objective of Jap invasion forces, because its capital, Port Moresby, is only 600 miles from the northern tip of Australia.
Germany owned the island before the last war, and German influence, established mainly by the efforts of missionaries, is still strong there, particularly in the North. The white population numbers less than 5,000. The coastal natives are to some extent civilized; some even speak English.
The interior was completely isolated from the world until 1938, when an American explorer, Dr. Richard Archbold, discovered in an unknown valley 60,000 primitive natives who still used Stone Age tools and plowed with wooden sticks.
Gold was discovered in the Morobe Mountains in 1922, and, by the use of air transport, a booming industry worth $6,500,000 yearly has been developed. New Guinea's other vast mineral resources are as yet unexploited.
Port Moresby is the island's largest city. Located on the south coast of Papua, the strong Allied naval base with its jug-handled harbor domineers the narrow Torres strait between New Guinea and Australia. This strategical position makes it the center of gravity of the Battle of the Pacific.
On March 8, the Japanese landed on the sloping grasslands of New Guinea's northeast coast, establishing supply bases and airfields for an overland attack on Port Moresby. In August, the Japs started through the jungles toward the city which would be their most effective stepping stone to Australia.
The expedition came to a dead halt south of the 7000-foot high pass through the Owen Stanley mountains. This pass, little more than a footpath, is the only possible route over the mountains. It winds through ravines, down gorges, and up steep slopes. Every piece of equipment must be borne over it by manpower.
When the Japs gave up their land thrust, it was quite logically thought that they were building an inland airfield to continue their almost daily bombings of Port Moresby. The Allies have sent their own jungle fighters into the perilous region, but they, too, have been blocked by the rugged terrain.
It is highly improbable that Japanese troops can ever foot their way across the heretofore impenetrable Owen Stanley mountains with enough equipment to stage a successful attack on Port Moresby. The invasion will have to

--come by air or sea, or both. One such attempt has already been made, and resulted in the Battle of the Coral Sea, in which Japan took a beating.
As long as Port Moresby remains in Allied hands, the Nipponese cannot invade Australia. For that reason, New Guinea is destined to be one of the hottest spots in the Pacific.
The Salina Journal defines salary, 1943 version, as what's left from a paycheck after the social security tax, victory tax, group insurance, war savings bond contributions, USO pledge, and the cut for flowers for a sick coworker are deducted.
When asked why God doesn't stop the war,
"Snort" Brown of the Atchison Globe replied,
"Because God didn't start it," and added,
"Wouldn't God be terrifically busy if he stopped every fool thing men started?"

Letters to the Editor
the University Daily Kansan:
I would like to compliment the scrap drive on the good work they have done to date, but I would like to suggest more lucrative fields for search. scrap sources which have heretofore been untapped because they are so obvious.
★
The University itself can give enough scrap to really put the screws to the enemy if she will dig into the available supplies. Probably the largest single source of scrap would be the old KFKU radio tower. This tower has not been used for broadcasting for several years, and it seems that there was never been an excuse for taking it down. There is one now. There is large boiler shell under the north end of the stadium which should be good scrap.
Other students can no doubt point out similar sources of scrap metal, which have been overlooked because they were so very obvious. It is up to the individual student, through the representatives of the scrap committee, to see that this idle metal is put to use, so that the armed forces can save the tanks, guns, and shells so badly needed.

colleges accelerating their pro- ments might do well to have their men and women students study in unmixed groups to avoid time-wasting."
Studying the behavior of 100 students, 50 men and 50 women, during the first ten minutes after they had seated themselves in the University of Illinois library reading room, Mr. Troth learned they spent 40 percent of the time conversing, amilyleaf books, using vanity cases, writing or reading letters and "just looking around." None of the 100 students, he discovered, spent the entire ten minutes in study. Moreover, the woman in the group were more given to non-academic activities in the ten-minute period than the men.

The proposed session would require the approval of the legislature and the Board of Regents. A special legislative grant would be necessary, since student fees could not cover the cost of a third term.

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
Fifteen future cooks and bakers for the navy began training Monday at the University of Minnesota in preparation for active service at sea. Upon graduation the men will be rated cooks or bakers, third class. Because the navy urgently needs men with this training, the graduates will most likely go into active service immediately.
About two hours a day of classroom training is planned for the cooks and bakers upon completion of their month's practical training. Volunteer Land Corps at Penn.
For the first month, these men will be taught cooking and baking from the practical side, acting as apprentices in the union and Ag Union kitchens. They will work side by side with regular University help.
Men and women at the University of Pennsylvania have been asked by the Farm Placement Bureau of the U. S. Employment Service to volunteer to do work on farms. Volunteers may select the afternoon or days over the week end when they will have spare time. They will be given free transportation from the campus to the farm and return-plus regular farm wages.
At present pickers are needed for apples, carrots, spinach, and turnips, besides a year round need for dairy labor. Workers this summer were able to earn from $4 to $13 a day, according to the Daily Pennsylvanian. Memecomers Asked Not to Come Home
There'll be homecoming at Pittsburg Teachers next week end, but no emphasis will be put on students returning to the institution because of the war situation.
However, dinners will be held over the state commemorating the occasion and all people close to the institution will be invited to attend the event.
Featured on the homecoming program will be a snake dance, bonfire and parade on Friday evening preceding the Pittsburg-St. Benedicts football game which will be on Saturday. The Chamber of Commerce will award prizes totaling twenty-five dollars for the two best decorated fraternity houses and the two best decorated sorority houses. Iowa Engineer Brought Home

The Iowa Engineer published at Iowa State College, was awarded the rating as the best undergraduate engineering publication in the United States at the annual meeting of the Engineering College Magazines Associated, last week at a meeting at Purdue University.
As a monthly publication, the Iowa Engineer was also given the Tech Engineering News cup, given each year by the student magazine at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Selection was based on general appearance, scientific and engineering merit of articles, make-up, effectiveness of illustration and editorial excellence. Judges included several business paper editors. They're Building a Radio Station

Quakers Return an Anchor—
The largest single contribution to the University of Pennsylvania scrap drive was when the Naval R.O.T.C. gave the ship's anchor which rested outside the Engineering Building to the government to be used on a vessel or to be melted down.
It was estimated that the weight of the anchor is close to 10,000 pounds. The anchor was given to the University nearly a year ago by the Navy Department. Due to the excellence of its condition the consensus was that it would not be melted down with other scrap.
Interested throngs of students gave moral support to the men from the Navy Yard, who equipped with a truck, pulleys, crowbars, and ropes, toiled in the rain attempting to raise the anchor onto the truck.
Officers' Dinner To Climax Navy Day Celebration
E. C. Buehler, professor of speech and drama and general chairman of Navy Day observance, will be master of ceremonies at the officers' dinner beginning at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the Eldridge hotel, Lt. A. H. Buhl, commanding officer of the Naval Training School for machinists' mates announced yesterday.
Lt. Comm. Webb B. Key, medical officer of the school, will speak on "Medical Care of the Navy Today." Lt. Buhl will address the attending officers and their guests. The dinner will conclude the Navy Day celebration and is given by the officers of the machinists' mates school, to which various celebrities have been invited, as well as persons who have submitted "Brain Buster" questions which stumped the Quiz Kids in the radio programs broadcast over station KFKU.
Other activities of the day include speeches before churches, civic clubs, and radio; window displays; and a parade.
More than 2400 members of city and campus organizations will take part in the parade which will begin at 5:30 p.m. by South Park and will proceed up Massachusetts Street to Sixth Street. Turning left, it will march to Vermont street and disperse.
The University will be represented by 75 members of the band, 550 ROTC cadets, the Coed Volunteer Corps, and the 600 members of the Machinists' mates school.
Civic organizations participating are the Dorsey-Liberty Post of the American Legion Color Guard and drum corps, Red Cross, Ladies of the G.A.R., Girl Scouts, Women's Relief Corps, United Service Mothers, American Legion Auxiliary, and Veterans of Foreign Wars Auxiliary.
Haskell Institute will be represented by 70 members of the Haskell Indian club, all in tribal costume. The Junior high school and the Liberty Memorial high school bands will play.

40TH YEAR
Homecoming Events Make Gala Weekend
Homecoming events for this weekend will include a rally and dance in Hoch auditorium Friday evening, Navy graduation ceremonies Saturday morning, and the Kansas-Nebraska football game with special entertainment by the University band and a bond auction between halves Saturday afternoon.
Beginning at 8 p.m. Friday the rally in Hoch auditorium will feature Ray S. "Red" Pierson, former member of the University football squad, who will give a short pep talk. "Red," whose
home is at Burlington, is president of the Kansas Alumni Association, president of the USO in Kansas, and a past department commander of the American Legion.
The candidates for Homecoming queen submitted by the women's organized houses will be introduced in a group to the audience. Each candidate will be numbered and will be interviewed and judged during the evening by a committee to be appointed by Gilbert Ulmer, chairman in charge of selection of the Homecoming queen. The winner will be announced at 10 o'clock.
Student Entertainment
Another attraction of the evening will be the contest of amateur acts. Try-outs are now being judged and eliminations are being made. The winner of the contest will be chosen by means of an applause-meter, which is being made by Vernon McKale, president of Men's Student Council.
County
Danny Bachmann and Johnnie Pope's bands will furnish music for dancing until 10:30.
The cost for the rally, dance, and program which will be a non-date affair, will be 10 cents a person. Tickets are not on sale from Jay Jane and KuKU's.
Several speakers will be on hand (continued to page eight)
Recruiting officers for the Merchant Marine Maritime Service have established offices in the post office building for today and tomorrow, and have asked that students interested in this branch of service come for interviews.
Recruiting Officers For Merchant Marine In City Post Office
Due to the acute shortage of trained men for the merchant marine, it is impossible to grant educational deferments. Men enlisting would be given three months' training at schools either in California, St. Petersburg, Fla., or Long Island, N. Y. At the completion of this training, enlistees will be allowed to choose their own ships and ports of destination. Pay ranges from $200 to $400 monthly. Eight months service during the year is required, and the men are allowed to spend the other four months as they see fit. At the end of 14 months' service, men are commissioned ensigns in the merchant marine.
Physical requirements are much the same as in the navy, and 20/30 vision, uncorrected, is essential. Technical knowledge of any kind is not required.
Seven Named To Activities Group
Seven students have been selected as the central correspondence committee of the Statewide Activities committee, it was announced today by John Kreamer, chiarman of the Statewide Activities group.
Max Webster is chairman of the committee. Other members are: Marian Hepworth, Bill Cavert, Betsy Dodge, Dick Roger, Bob Coleman, Joy Miller, and Bill Chestnut. Faculty members of the committee are: Wealthy Babcock, associate professor of mathematics, Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College, Lawrence C. Woodruff, registrar, and Raymond Nichols, executive secretary of the University. More members may be selected later.
The function of the committee at present will be to work with Webster in picking out correspondents for both professional and school newspapers of the various counties.
Eight Successful In Language Exam
Eight students passed the language proficiency examination. The College office announced today. The results show that five passed in French, two in Latin, and one in Spanish, none in German.
The persons who have now filled the college language requirement by passing this examination and the language in which they wrote are: French—Phil Borden, Glena Dare Creech, William Kanaga. Alice Lewis and Ruth M. Prentice; Latin—Warren Beck, and Denis J. Dooley; and Spanish—Robert L. Lesh. Twenty-seven students took the examination which was given Oct. 17 and was prepared by the department of Romance language.
Jay Janes will meet at 7:30 tomorrow morning in the stadium to practice marching with the KuKus and band. The drill figures worked out tomorrow will be presented at the half in the game Saturday. Further discussion of Saturday activities will take place at the weekly meeting of the Jay James at 4:50 tomorrow afternoon.
Jay Janes March Tomorrow
A recent survey indicates that there is an average of 100 pounds of iron and steel scrap in y urban home.
Community Celebrates Navy Day
The Chamber of Commerce luncheon at noon today began a day full of activities in celebration of Navy Day. Four students from the department of speech, Bob Akey, Edith Fleming, Verlyn Norris, and Jim Gillie, spoke to the Chamber of Commerce and officers of the machinists' mates school on the subject, "Our Navy."
The day's activities, arranged by Prof. E. C. Buehler, general chairman of Navy Day, include window displays at Bell's music store, the Outlook, and Ober's clothing store; numerous speeches before civic clubs, schools and radio; and a parade; culminating with a dinner for the naval officers and their guests at 7 p.m. at the Eldridge hotel.
A window display, sponsored by the A. A. U. W. at the Bell music store features of U. S. ship models, among them the "Mayflower." A fleet of Columbus' ships, a fleet of Henry Hudson ships, a novelty group, and an old Egyptian galley gave a sharp contrast picture of the advancement of ships in the United States.
In Ober's clothing store, the machinists' mates school has prepared a window showing the Navy uniform and clothing. The Outlook window shows a display of ships

Freihausen Raid In Camouflage
A film of an authentic RAF air raid over Freihausen, Germany, was shown in the architecture department of Marvin hall last night for students of the camouflage class. The problems of bombing which were discussed in lectures last week were illustrated in the film. Students saw what problems are presented in industrial camouflage.
Worthie Horr, professor of botany, will give the last lecture in the course Wednesday. A Knowledge of plant life, necessary in connection with the study of camouflage, will be explained by professor Horr. After Wednesday, the class will work out the projects of the course.
"Target for Tonight" reveals how plans are made and executed by the RAF. Scenes were taken following the discovery of German oil tanks detected by aerial photography to the time of the return trips from bombing the tanks.
Field work in the camouflage class under the supervision of Bernard Frazier, instructor of architecture and design, will begin Sunday afternoon in the rock quarry on the west side of the campus.
Two weeks ago, rain caused the trip to be canceled, but the class will meet this Sunday regardless of the weather conditions. The students will learn how to camouflage a machine gun nest by the usage of artificial rocks.
Waxed Dance Floor Draws Allen's Fire
Students must show a "better spirit of fair play in the future," or there will be no more school dances for the duration, according to school authorities following the Freshman Frolic Saturday night at Hoch auditorium.
The warning was given following a survey on the Auditorium floor by basketball mentor Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen and Chancellor Deane W. Malott
House mothers, dietitians, and restaurant managers over the campus are worrying about a new problem, coffee rationing, which goes into effect at midnight, November 28.
A decree from the Office of Price Administration announced yesterday that each person over 15 would be allotted one pound every five weeks, starting from that date. Each person will be entitled to slightly more than a cup a day under the system, since there are 35 to 40 cups of coffee to a pound.
Most organized houses have imposed voluntary rationing, since coffee has been difficult to buy since summer. Mrs. Dean Alt of the Pi Beta Phi house remarked that only about half the girls in the house drink coffee, so rationing will have little noticeable effect.
Coffee Rationing Allows Cup A Day
The houemothers of all organized houses interviewed said that coffee would be served only once a day, and possibly only twice a week, if the quota is cut to the minimum.
Dr. Allen said that, contrary to the agreement he had made with dance manager Larry McSpadden, wax had been used on the floor. Smuggled Into Hoch
McSpadden said today that the wax was "smuggled" into the auditorium by dancers without his knowledge, and placed on the floor during intermission without his permission. McSpadden also warned that there would be no more parties unless such practices cease in the future.
It was estimated by school authorities and McSpadden that the removal of the wax will cost one hundred dollars. The dance manager pointed out that that money must come from the student dance fund, and thus indirectly from the students themselves.
Physical conditioning students have volunteered to do the work of removing the wax. However, it will be left on the floor until after the Homecoming dance Friday night. No Basketball Practice
Dr. Allen stated today that the basketball team will be unable to practice upon the court until after the wax is removed, and that even the physical conditioning classes and

Mechanical Humor Slows Show 'Meet Talent' Stops-Go's
With the heavy-footed stride of mechanical humor, "Meet the Talent," the production of the department of speech and drama, took its first bow on the stage of Fraser theater last night.
By Jimmy Gunn
It was accurately sub-titled a dramatic variety show. Its dramatic repertoire ranged all the way from burlesque to burlesque and back again. Indeed, if variety is the spice of life that it is reputed to be, the show $ ^{\textcircled{2}} $
It was accurately sub-titled dramatic repertoire ranged all t lesque and back again. Indeed, it is reputed to be, the show should need no further recommendation. Melodrama, satire (mellow with age and frequent use), jokes—the old, familiar jokes—and broad, broad humor—of these ancient materials was the show made up.
The show opened on perhaps its highest note with a comedy entitled "A Woman of Character." Taking its general theme from "The Women," a successful play and movie, the drama presented a none-to-suite satire on the idle gossip that characterizes any group of women.
I love Like Boo!
'Love Like Beer'
When Mrs. Lange said that "love is like a glass of beer" the play began to be relieved of the rigid, mechanical structure of its humor. Connie Moses, Shel Schwartz, Jane Peake, and
Jean Beal gave a hint of what they might have done with meatier parts. A bright spot in the evening was the spontaneity of Ted Lehman's monologue "Professor Oddley." A peculiar hybrid of screen and radio, it presented an opportunity for genuine laughter.
"Forward and Back" was one idea hidden to death. Going backward through the play demonstrated the memory of the actors but was hardly musing after the first few seconds. Red Riding Hood Falls
"Little Re' Riding Hood," a recitation by Ry Jordan, has been done too many times before. To laugh at stammering and stuttering may be good clean fun, but it is not a very high class of humor.
As usual, polished performances (continued to page eight)

Nation Pauses To Observe Navy Day
Today is Navy Day. Observance of it is national, but it strikes home to the University of Kansas as it never has before. Trainees of that line of national defense are now a part of our campus and our social activities.
A parade will organize at 4:30 this afternoon at South Park and pass through downtown at 5:30. CVC, Coed Volunteer Corps made up of more than 300 women on the Hill, will march
in the parade at the invitation of Col. James S. Duesnbury, commanding officer of the R.O.T.C. Unit. The volunteer corps organized last spring, and has continued its wartime activities this fall with inductions of many new students.

Is Your Roommate Undergoing Long Hospitalization?
Your roommate's in for a long sick at Watkins Memorial Hospital? Then one of the chief questions in your mind is "What would Sue like while she is there?" Flowers, I suppose. Or what?
Well, there are other things, a lot of them apparently unknown to well-wishers. Beginning with flowers there is a whole series of welcome suggestions, that you could keep in mind for the next gift. If you're sending a bouquet, use the same rule in regard to any illness—don't waste money when the patient is too sick to enjoy them. Wait about a week until the first excitement has died down, then make your contribution.
There are other variations on the sympathy theme. Eau de cologne is nice to offset rubbing alcohol. So is a box of dusting powder, a few cakes of luxury soap, or the delightfully scented bath mitts that eliminate washeloths.
Other unusual gifts are on the list. A mirror, for instance, is a godsend for a woman. The minute she's feeling better she wants to do a job on her face. Another happy thought-is a tiny down pillow—just the thing to tuck back of a tired neck.
And for some curious reason most hospital rooms have either an overhead light or a squat table lamp. Both are unsatisfactory, and for that reason a good gooseneck reading lamp makes an ideal gift.

Of Heroic Deeds
Today is Navy Day. Navy Day was proclaimed by President Calvin Coolidge on Oct. 27 in 1922 in honor of former President Theodore Roosevelt whose birthday is that day. Mr. Roosevelt has been called the "Father of the Modern Navy," because of his belief in sea power and the development of the U. S. Navy during his administration. This was the greatest period of advancement in Navy history.
Mrs. William H. Hamilton, founder of the National Navy Club. New York, originated the idea of selecting one day of
the year as a day on which knowledge of the navy would be presented to the citizens of the United States. This idea was approved by the Navy Department and culminated in a request to the President.
George Washington was among the first to recognize the part sea power might play in war and in July, 1775, he ordered ships built to help capture British ships containing powder and other badly needed supplies.
In 1781, the administration of the navy was placed in the War Department, but by the act of Congress, April 20, 1789, the Navy Department was created as a separate administrative branch of the government.
Navy Traditions
In such a short review of the Navy's history since that Act, it is impossible to mention more than a few of the incidents upon which its traditions are founded.
Naval traditions are founded upon the examples of the British navy from which the Colonial seafaring men learned so much. Its record, to date, has been an excellent one.
The attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, was the scene of another chapter in navy history. Persons will read about and remember Pearl Harbor as a story for the daring bravery, cool - headedness, strength, and skill of the navy. Courageous Actions
An American admiral at Pearl Harbor gave his life in giving help to brother officers; four young reserve ensigns manned a destroyer and fought in the thickest of the fight; a dying Captain, hit by flying shrapnel, continued to give orders and refused to be moved, but ordered his junior officers to leave the burning deck; scores of enlisted men swam from sinking ships through oil-burning waters trying to reach safety as the enemy machine-gunned them. Once ashore, those who survived, manned small boats reported to other ships, and continued to fight.
These heroic deeds of men will be added to the pages of history and other names will continue to be placed with John Paul Jones, George Dewey, Oliver Perry, Charles Stewart, David Farragut, and others selected a few years ago by a committee of admirals, captains, and college presidents as the most distinguished American Naval officers.
The names are carved on the amphitheater, at Arlington. They are the examples that make up navy traditions, customs, and practices, a prominent part of the history of the United States.
Quack Club Meets Tomorrow
The Quack Club, swimming organization for University women, will meet at 8:15 p.m. tomorrow in Robinson gymnasium, Nada Clifton, president of the club, announced today.

The first issue of the Graduate magazine to be published this semester will be sent out this week, Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary, announced today.
This issue contains articles about the opening of school, emphasizing the physical conditioning program and the University's participation in war work. Also included in the magazine are at least 1200 personal items, military news of graduates, and an article in appreciation of the work of Geo. O. Foster, who died recently. Reports of marriages and new addresses, as usual, are included in the class notes.
Theta Squad Wins 29 to 20 Over Chi Omega Team
Kappa Alpha Theta continued to hold its own in the women's intramural volleyball tournament, winning last night 29 to 20 over the Chi Omega's.
The Theta's and Corbin hall play Thursday night to determine who will meet the I.W.W. squad for the championship.
Although the game was not nearly as good as the previous Kappa Alpha Theta-Kappa Kappa Gamma game which the Theta's won 21 to 17, Peggy Davis the Theta's and Donna Burkhead of the Chi Omega's played bang-up games.
Fine defensive play by the Theta guards, Frizell and Roberts, stopped the Chi Omega's attacks, and caused them to bog down in front of the winner's goal.
Prof. John W. Ashton, of the department of English, will read poetry at the Noon-Tide recreation period from 1 to 1:20 p.m. tomorrow in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building.

Prof. Austin F. Rogers, recently retired professor of mineralogy at Stanford University, will speak on "Jade" at 4:30 Thursday afternoon in Bailey Chemical laboratories. His lecture will be illustrated with Kodachrome films.
Dr. Rogers, a graduate of the University in 1899, has made a hobby of the study of jade and has an unusual collection of jade statues and ornaments. Jade has been found in connection with many ancient civilizations, and excavations in the Mayan temples have been very productive of the green, opaque mineral. Dr. Rogers was responsible for the discovery of an extensive deposit of jade in southern California.
Dr. Rogers is one of the most widely known mineralogists in North America. Few students of geology have graduated without using one of his textbooks on Optical or General Mineralogy. He has been president of the Mineralological Society of America, vice-president of the Geolgoical Society of America, is a member of the National Research Council, a member of the Mineralological Society of France, the Mineralological Society of Great Britain, and was a delegate to the South African meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science.

Baker showed some real punting ability in the game . . . The sophomore back also brought Williams down once with a nice tackle when he was the only man between the Aggie fullback and the Kansas goal . . . The Aggies used almost twice as many substitutes as did Gwinn Henry . . . Mendenhall, Wildcat basketball ace, saw some action in the last quarter . . . The way Paul Hardmann and Otto Schnellbacher stopped Aggie reverses was encouraging to Kansas fans who had in previous games seen just those same plays work for touchdowns . . . Johnny former teammate at Wyandotte, looked plenty good
Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
A day in Dairydale:: Jayhawk rooters almost drowned out Aggie cheers at the dime dance rally held in Nichols gym Saturday morning . . . Admission was by a ten-cent defense stamp, and 50-cent purchases brought a smooth from an Aggie coed . . . Saturday morning the Aggie campus was alive with Jayhawk visitors . . . This writer attended the Manhattan- Herrington High school game Friday night, and was greatly impressed by the fine Manhattan squad which won 31 to 0 . . . Manhattan blocking was at times almost unbelievable, while little Marvin Miller turned in some broken-field running which was out of this world . . . Prevailing opinion of downtown Manhattan business men seemed to be that the Jayhawks would win easily . . . Aggie students, however, were more confident.

The Wildcat Homecoming queen was introduced between halves, and Governor Ratner spoke briefly . . . An army mobile unit paraded around the field between halves . . . Most impressive of the K-State players to this writer was Mike Vargon, a sophomore end who has all the earmarks of greatness . . . Earl Williams is a fullback who hits that line savagely . . . Mike Zeleznak had been ill the previous week and saw but little action . . . On one occasion he was tossed for a 22-yard loss by the charging Jayhawk forwards as he dropped back to pass . . . Many scribes believed the real difference between the two teams lay in the superiority of the Kansas linesmen, so Hardman, Crawford, Hird, Johnson, Penny, and company can take a bow . . . Hardman in particular was outstanding.

The Jayhawk party which gathered at the Aggie cafeteria after the game was a tired, but happy one . . . Wearing the biggest grin was Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, basketball coach . . . Mack Betton's fine orchestra played for dances Friday and Saturday nights for the Homecoming crowd . . . Disappointed fan—the alumnus who made the trip to Manhattan "just to see the band I used to play with perform" . . . Our thanks to the hospitable Aggie journalists, publicity men, and Western Union manager who helped make coverage of the game possible . . . Also to Milo Farneti, who handled the story on this end of the wire . . . Jack Gardner, former Aggie basketball coach and now coaching the Gardner Naval Station quintet, was in the pressbox . . . One Aggie sports writer predicted after the game that the Kansas squad could take Iowa State into camp, if Hoyt Baker's leg injury is not too serious.
With an emphasis on speed in place of the power once stressed by the Lincoln squad, the Nebraska team has been showing improvement with each game.
Forming the nucleus for a scintillating backfield are two of last year's top Big Six performers, Al Zikmund of Rose Bowl fame and Dale Bradley, all-conference halfback last fall. Those two men, however have been receiving plenty of offensive aid from sophomore stars Wally Hopp and Kirwin Eisenhart. Other capable backs include Fred Metheny, Wayne Sindt, Bob Cooper, Marvin Athey, and Roy Long.

Pity the Poor Japs ★★★ ★★★ Phys Ed Textbook
BY PAUL BROWNLEE
"You don't need brute strength. With your bare hands you can beat the man who wants to kill you."
These reassuring words adorn the cover of that epic of modern warfare—that scintillating scoop of Superman—the story that will end all stories, mainly because there will be no human beings left on this sphere to tell their stories after following the principles outlined in this book, the Bible of the Commando, "Get Tough," by Major W. E. Fairbairn.
But wait! The worst is yet to come Our own University commandos have adopted it as their text. After having glimpsed the unholy decreative conglomeration of practical homicidal methods, clammy convulsions shake the body of this reporter as he thinks of future physical conditioning classes.
What If I Slip?
I think of the swell fellow that always pairs off with me in the 10:30 commando class. What if I slip? What could I tell his parents? The last paragraph in the Preface to "Get Tough" sears my mind.
"I should like in conclusion to give a word of warning. Almost everyone of these methods applied vigorously and without restraint will result, if not in the death, then certainly in the maiming of your opponent."
This ghastly portrayal of sudden death has eight divisions. Yes, there are eight different classified sections as to how you can send to greener pastures or to hotter hunting grounds enemies who did not see
you remember
ing but could not think of an equally
unorthodox way in which to pro-
long their own lives.
of AM, Kives
Blows Of All Kinds
The first division is devoted to blows. Low blows, high blows, behind-the-back blows, or any other type of blow imaginable that instantly has your opponent saying Uncle if he is able to say anything.
Then come releases, holds, throws, miscellaneous advice (how to kill, bury, and mark the grave in five
This blow is "delivered with a bent arm (never with a straight arm), using a chopping action from the elbow, with the weight of the body behind it."
Explanation is sufficient in this saga of the guerilla. For instance there is the edge-of-the-hand blow.
minutes), use of the knife, the hatchet, and disarming an opponent of his pistol.
A Likely Fracture
"Note: If your opponent catches hold of you, strike his wrist or forearm, a fracture will most likely result."
And there is the Broncho Kick. "First, your opponent must be lying on the ground (there are numerous ways mentioned to get him there). Now take a flying jump at your opponent, drawing your feet up by bending your knees, at the same time keeping your feet close together. Then, when your feet are approximately eight inches above your opponent's body, shoot your legs out straight, driving both of your boots into his body and smash him."
"Note: Cou should practice this kick on a dummy figure or on the grass."
"Note: This is almost certain to kill him if you hit his body." Practice With Dummy
After much manipulation of the torso and arms you should bring your opponent down and smash him on your right knee (it is very important that it be your right and not your left) and break his spine. This is the backbreak in case you had not surmised as much already.
Pity the poor Japs and their gentle jiu jitsu.

Gene Roberts Shows Good Practice Form
The Kansas coaches were pleased with the confidence gained by their charges in the Aggie game, but were quick to warn that the Nebraska squad this year is the typical tough, topnotch Cornhusker outfit.
Roberts was going great guns in practice scrimmages last night, and his fancy running was the highlight of the afternoon. The fast halfback may be ready to add his brokenfield running ability to the Jayhawk offense by Saturday afternoon. Roberts did not even make the trip last week to Manhattan, as coach Gwinn Henry left him behind so that the injured leg would receive plenty of rest.
Still another silver lining appeared in the cloudy Jayhawk football picture, as Gene Roberts, sophomore flash, for the first time this year showed definite signs of improvement from his leg injury which has kept him on the bench all season.
Gene Sherwood, however, was on the injury list, and will be a doubtful starter Saturday. Sherwood has been holding down the regular fullback position.

We Dooed It
Kansas—19. Kansas State 7.
When we look in retrospect 20 years hence, we won't remember the shortened vacation, we won't remember the aching muscles and skinned shins of junior commando training. We will recall the rousing gridiron victory which our Crimson and Blue stalwarts battered out over our arch-rival, Kansas State.
Perhaps our Jayhawk eleven has lost a few unimportant encounters this fall—so much water under the bridge. Last Saturday they transcended traversity, stalked the wildcat in his own lair, and returned all-triumphant with a pelt after a grueling battle.
Kansas State's line crumbled like delicate flowers before the onslaught of Kansas' Hardman, Penney, Johnson, Hodges, and Crawford. In short, the intrepid Jayhawks unconditionally collapsed the Wildcat grid balloon.
How the vanquished Silo eleven must have cringed before the brilliant passing and running of Evans, the sparkling broken field running of Baker, or the bulldozing line plunges of Linquist!
Notwithstanding our elation, we must offer our deepest condolences to those poor depraved souls at Silo Tech. Our victory Saturday nullified the day vacation they had been promised, should Silo have inadvertantly won. Not only that, Kansas' victory inequivocally exploded the myth that Kansas State has a football team.
Come what may, our football season is destined to be recorded in the annals of gridiron history as a success. It is not how many did we win or lose, but did we beat the Aggies? Kansas—19, Kansas State—7.
Resistance of German prisoners of war to shackling in Canadian prison camps this week further aggravates the eye-for-an-eye retaliation struggle developing between Great Britain and Germany over prisoners of war.
Eye For An Eye
It is not enough that these two bitter enemies dump bombs and shells on each other and torpedo each other's ships; they must also engage in a degraded, inane fight in which prisoners of war — totally unable to defend themselves — are the victims.
Ignoring all canons of international law, which gives war prisoners a special status to protect them from abuse by their captors, the British and Nazis both are shackling prisoners en masse, each purportedly in retaliation for infractions of international law by the other.
Charging that British Commandos tied up prisoners on the small Channel island of Sark during the daylight raid on Dieppe recently, Germany announced that all/British prisoners taken during the raid would be put in irons.
It is presumed by the British that the 107 officers and 1,269 men who were captured by the Nazis at Dieppe are now in chains; in retaliation the British have shackled an equal number of German prisoners in Canada.
Berlin now announces that this reprisal will be followed by counter-reprisal; for every German prisoner fettered, the Nazis will fetter three British. Germany holds 90,000 Empire troops prisoner matched against 23,000 Germans in British prison camps. Such pernicious practice can be continued until all war prisoners are trussed in chains and handcuffs.
Just Wondering
To make sure that drivers realize "Keep Em Flying" means on the airways, not the highways, the government has imposed a 35 mile per hour speed limit.
---
Regimented War Education
Shackling may lead to stronger reprisal measures. Even now French and Polish prisoners of war are reported to be flogged and shot by the Germans as disciplinary measures. The Nazis hold 500,000 Poles and 1,267,000 Frenchmen prisoners.
What can possibly be gained by such barbaric practice as shackling prisoners? It makes excellent propaganda material for both the British and Nazis to charge their soldiers are being maltreated by the enemy, but now is hardly the time for them to carry on such a diplomatic dispute of acrimony.
It is hoped this unfortunate situation involving British and German war prisoners can soon be corrected through a neutral nation such as Switzerland. Why heap humiliation on defeat? A war prisoner's only crime is that he took up arms to protect his homeland, and no man should be condemned to chains for such action.

"He who laughs last,___"
A platoon of sailors were marching briskly along the Union walk the other day, singing the usual navy favorites. One of the platoon spied a girl sitting in the window of the building. He happily shouted, "Hi Kelly!" and the whole column immediately struck up a swing version of "Slide, Kelly, Slide."
The sailors enjoyed their little joke, but Ruth Kelley, college senior from Atwood, enjoyed a nice little chuckle herself.

Bill Des Jardins, who has lived at the Rock Chalk Co-op since the first of the year, thought that John Conard's name was Oberdowski, which has been Conard's nom de plume for a year or so.
When a phone call came one day for John Conard, Des Jardines thought a moment, then told the party that no one by that name lived there. At dinner that night, he mentioned the incident in a humorous way. "I wonder where they got the idea that a John Conard lived here?" he added.
The next few minutes were devoted to Des Jardines by other members of the Co-op, who patiently explained that John Conard and Oberdowski were one and the same.
"Geet!" Des Jardines exclaimed on hearing the explanation, "I thought Conard's name was Oberdowski, because his manners I thought him to be a member of a Polish immigrant family."

Marjorie admits that slacks and saddle shoes are her chief weaknesses. In the words of this physical education major, "I love to kick around in jeans, complete with turned up saddle shoes and sweater."
Leisure to Marjorie is "doing something that calls for little expenditure of energy and yet is spontaneous." This can best be exemplified by mentioning her habit of balancing a notebook on her head, while walking between classes.

(continued from page four) castle toward the University's Memorial stadium: "Nestled down on the foot of picturesque old Mt. Oread on the banks of the muddy river Kaw in Lawrence is chained a white elephant the proportions of which will never be attained in the Big Six again. It is Memorial Stadium, the million dollar baby drawing the 5 and 10-cent crowds. The Lawrence lemon naturally has panned out just like the Lawrence teams."
"Our stadium cost closer to half-a-million dollars than to a million," said Dr. Allen. "However, it is little wonder that our stadium must seem magnificent when compared to the stable-like athletic plant in which the Oklahoma gridiron squad perfoms."
"As for our failure to draw crowds to our games," Allen pointed out, "let Mr. Cronley note there is no poorer drawing card in the Big Six than the Oklahoma squad here at Lawrence. Local people just don't care to see them play." Rendiates Figures
Allen also repudiated Cronley's figures showing that the stadium would hold 42,000 persons, and that
"The stadium will hold 36,387 admissions," Allen stated. "Nor was it filled for the Notre Dame game. The Missouri University squad once drew a considerably larger crowd to the stadium than did the Irish." It is quite apparent that Cronley did not bother to check his figures before making his charges. Allen said.
Said Cronley in his column: "It missed (the stadium) because the team missed. They've been missing for many years now, and no prospect of improvement."
Said Dr. Allen: "I should like to point out to Cronley that this 'missing team has been strong enough to defeat the 'mighty' Sooners three times since 1930, tie them once, and give them plenty of close games.
Growing Pains
"Oklahoma did not have any more than Kansas in the way of football until they hired Biff Jones and he interested wealthy alumni in subsidizing a team," Allen continued. "I repeat, Oklahoma is suffering from growing pains and an illusion of Southwest conference, and has caught the contegious spirit of subsidization. She refuses to admit that she is in actuality out of the area of emphasized football."
"Yes, Oklahoma has looked good in conference football," Allen admitted. "However, look what happens when she steps out of the conference against opposition with the same athletic policies in bowl games. Both Missouri and Cklahona have met repeated defeats."
To illustrate his point Cronley's column contained a cartoon of Memorial stadium, with the teams scrimmaging on the gridiron, one spectator sitting on the home-side of the field and shouting "Rah," and another solitary spectator on the other side booing.
"Oklahoma scribes should not get too cocky," declared Dr. Allen. "It looks this year as though Oklahoma is definitely on the downgrade, and they began showing signs of that fall last year."

physical education chairman stated. "When the Sooners lose, what are they going to tell those oil men who spent hundreds of dollars on the promise of receiving a winning gridiron team?"
Oklahoma writers like to refer to Kansas. Kansas State and Iowa State as the Little Three. I prefer to call us the Little-Pocketbook-Three," said Dr. Allen.
In his column in regard to the Kansas coaching situation, Cronley declared: "Kansas hasn't been without top-ranking coaches, and it has one of the better teachers today in likeable, scholarly Uncle Gwinn Henry."
"It is no reflection upon Uncle Gwinn to state the only apparent solution to the dolrums down on the Kaw probably is hiring one of Kansas' own young heroes, a Bausch, a Miller, or an Evans. Armed, of course, with whole hearted backing, from finances on up through the maze of politics."
“There,” declared Dr. Allen, “is a perfect description of football at Norman—where it is a business not a sporting venture. Where politics means more than the building up of young men. That is what will kill football—one of the greatest of all sports.”
Summarized Cronley: "Henry has Evans this year, Evans has Henry—and don't push—that big white elephant has 42,000 seats."
"Actually it costs KU more money to play a game on its own field. Not even th wizardry of KU's basketball overlord, old Doc Allen, can stand the strain of such a load as that."
"It's awfully nice for Cronley to worry about me," replied the good doctor, "but I think we have been standing the load in pretty fair
shape, and in actuality Kansas football is much healthier than Oklahoma's. Professionalism is a cancer that kills."

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
The University of Idaho Argonaut has a new editor and a new sports editor beginning this week, replacing men who have been drafted. The new editor is Bob Wethern. The editor's salary for this semester has been increased to $40 per month, or $10 per issue, instead of the $5 per issue wage that hitherto has been given for the job.
The view of the publications board in granting the double salary was that an inadequate editorial staff and reporting crew made editorship of the Argonaut a tougher job than it used to be.
They Did It In English
Purdue University students, saw and understood Puccini's "La Boheme" opera Saturday night. The opera was sung in English.
For the past several years critics have been writing for and against the possibility of doing good opera in English. Since the understanding and enjoyment of operas depends upon the fusing in the hearer's mind of every note, work and action the latest decision is in favor of opera in English.
Charles L. Wagner produced "La Boheme." It was put on by a traveling opera troupe. The scenery is adeptable to various sized stages and travels collapsed in one of the three busses in which the company tours. New Press Day at Creighton
The Creightonian, student publication at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebr., will be distributed on Friday instead of Wednesday, according to the managing editor.
Emporia Teachers Into the Scrap
"The change was necessitated because of a small editorial staff," the managing editor said, adding that the new day of publication will lend its self more timely coverage of important weekend activities at Creighton.
Emporia Teachers College contributed a total of 27,971 pounds of scrap in the recent drive, according to the superintendent of buildings and grounds.
Enough iron and rubber was delivered from the college to make a 3,500 75 mm. armor piercing projectiles and ten gas masks. A large amount of copper and brass also was contributed.
Friends Seniors Have "Snuck"
Friends Seniors Have 'Snack'
Senior Sneak Day at Friends University in Wichita was at Friday.
In years past the Sneak Day has been held late in the spring, but impending gasoline rationing necessitated setting up the date several months.
The days activities were varied—baseball, singing, wandering about in the woods, eating, making up a good part of the activity of the day.
Community Cust Dr
Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, University basketball mentor, gave the kick-off to the annual Lawrence Community Chest Drive at a breakfast in the Hotel Eldridge this morning for all men can客ers. The drive will end Saturday night, with the $13,800 goal to be reached by time.
Of the important shortages, that of steel is one of the most serious. Therefore, the importance of collecting all materials scrap iron and steel can not be exaggerated.
Offer Examinations For Civil Service
Persons desiring full-time jobs under the civil service plan must make application for merit examinations before Nov.11, according to notification received by the Chancellor's office from the Kansas civil service office in Topeka.
The place and date of the examinations will be announced after Nov. 11. Examinations given will be in seven classifications for clerical positions. These seven positions as announced by Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, are clerk I, II, and III; clerk-typist I and II; and clerk-sten-grapher I and II.
Kuersteiner Speaks, Sailors Entertain At Symphony Smoker
K. U. Kuersteiner, director of the Symphony Orchestra, spoke informally at a smoker given by the orchestra last night in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building.
Entertainment at the smoker was provided by two sailors from the Naval Training School, Fireman, First Class Senner and Apprentice Scaman Pointer, who played musical selections on the guitar, fiddle, and saw. These men, both from Texas, have appeared on radio programs in that state.

Governor Ratner will act as auctioneer in a bond auction in which the $25 bond will be used as a premium to the person making the largest purchase of bonds.
MECHANICAL HUMOR--that is not the show the department of speech and drama intended to give. It is the show they found they had to give because of withdrawals from the cast, too much work, and conflicts.
(continued from page one) were given by Robert Calderwood and Allen Crafton in a fantasy, "The Glittering Gate." Of all acts this one fulfilled its promise. It is in the philosophical moments that characterize this and "A Women of Character" that Professor Crafton is at his best.
"Louder Please" presented a situation that might have been funny stated in one sentence, but carried out at length for five minutes it was drained of all humor. At best the device of contrast is rigid, but the change from muttering to shouting is childish indeed.
Lehmann Brings Laughs
The humor of "The Tragedy of Brown" was chiefly unpremeditated. Barbara Wikoff's greatest ability, as demonstrated in the play, was as a quick-change artist. The agile tongue and brain of Ted Lehmann was good for a laugh.
The "Soap Opry" was a satire on a "soap opry." The idea is not new, and the satire did not tax the brain.
The program ended with a musical pantomime entitled "A Kiss in Xanadu." It was very pretty.
Too much of the mechanical devices of humor enervated the show. The plays were well constructed on the whole, but only one, "The Glittering Gate," betrayed a spark of inspiration. It would seem that Professor Crafton underestimated the intellectual age of his audience. Difficulties Stymied Casting
There are mitigating circumstances. The show might have been revived by a hypodermic of music and dancing. And it should be considered, as a note on the program indicates, that

Students had complained at the dance before the intermission that the floor was entirely unfit for dancing, and may had taken seats to watch the proceedings rather than to attempt to glide upon the sticky floor.
"Nothing should be done today which halts the training of the enlisted men on our campus," Dr. Allen declared.
"I do not mind basketball practice being held up," the basketball coach said," but it is more serious when the training of 809 sailors has to operate under such a handicap."
Coach Allen was more than slightly ruffled, when upon making his inspection tour he stepped upon the floor, and proceeded to lose his balance upon the slippery surface.

Future Class Schedules Await Federal Action
University authorities believe that some of the courses now offered will be unnecessary in the future. Which courses will be discontinued and which will be emphasized will depend largely on government orders. Possibilities of drafting women for war work and more complete plans in the men's draft will affect the course of study.
Schedules for summer school and next year cannot be definitely planned until further government action, it was announced today from the Chancellor's office.
During the past few weeks, a number of national educational associations have met to discuss the possibilities of school programs. One of the possibilities set forth would be to send drafted men in uniform, who have already begun a course of technical or vital training, back to college to complete their work. Certain limitations would be required in this plan including a satisfactory scholastic record in previous school work.
In the event that a three-semester program is followed here, financial aid will be necessary. Arrangements for additional finances will probably come from the national and state governments.
Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, announced that a change in the draft program is not definite. The present system of deferments may continue, he said.

Campus rumors that train and bus tickets will not be sold to students before and after the Christmas vacation were temporarily spiked today by bus lines and railroad officials.
Local officials stated that no official or unofficial word had been received in their offices about any plans to deprive students of transportation during the four-day holiday. They said the rumors were completely unfounded as far as they knew.

Both men studied English in high school at Panama City but often they are forced to rely on dictionaries and sign language to express themselves. A major source of trouble is inability to understand instructors, who speak too rapidly and use unfamiliar words.

The first varsity of the year will be held from 9 to 12 Saturday night in the ballroom of the Memorial Union building, Larry McSpadden, dance manager, announced today. The charge will be 75c a couple and tickets may be purchased at the door.
The varsity will be the only entertainment after the game and Homecoming alumni, Nebraska visitors, and University students will be on hand to make this one of the largest dances of the year, McSpadden added.
Danny Bacchmann and his orchestra will furnish the music, featuring Phil Cato on the drums, and Bachmann on the trombone. Me-Spadden also remarked satirically that each person might "bring their own wax."
According to the present plans of the dance committee, only two more varitions will be held this year and probably will take place next semester. The dates for these dances have not yet been set. The reason for the limited number of varitions, McSpadden explained, is to make it possible for organizations and houses to use the ballroom on Saturday nights for their formal parties. No plans have been made for varities next year.

O'Llary, of the Naval Aviation Cadet Selection Board (V-5), Dr. Woodruff was assured that the stories are entirely without base, and that enlistments in all branches for college students are still wide open.
founded the University School of Law. The trust will be called the Stephens Bequest. Professor of Greek
Kate Stephens was one of the first women to hold a professorship in an American university. She was graduated from the University of Kansas in 1875, did graduate study at Cambridge, Mass., in Germany, and in 1878 became assistant professor of Greek at the University. A year later, she became full professor, a position she held until 1885.
After leaving the University, Miss Stephens went East, where she devoted herself to writing and to editorial work, notably for Macmillan

The Oriental dancers will be accompanied by gamelan music, and their costumes will be colorful and ornamental garb peculiar to the islands from which they have come.
Heading the group of dancers will be Devi Dja, star of the company, whose dancing has won her recognition from critics in Europe and America. She has been described as an artist of the highest order who transmits emotion and narration by the movements of her dance.

D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, announced that after the success of the Don Cossacks last week, the concert course management has decided to make a final offer with reduced rates on season tickets for the final five attractions. These tickets, which must be purchased at the Fine Arts Office before Monday evening, are being offered at $6, $5, and $4 plus federal and state tax.

First Americans Pour It On Haskell a War Industry
With sailors quartered in Frank Strong hall, war plant workers invading rooming houses, ROTC uniforms becoming common as saddle shoes, and physical conditioning courses crowding everyone's schedule, it might be difficult to imagine still another group in Lawrence preparing to enter the armed forces or training for work in war industry.
But those First Americans are at it again. The initial group of Indians to enter the service $ \textcircled{*} $ ___
But those First Americans a of Indians to enter the service was the National Guard unit, called to active duty two years ago.
Strangely enough, the navy and the coast guard seem most attractive to these landsmen whose ancestors claimed the plains and forests as their home. More Indians volunteer for these seafaring branches than for any other division of the service.
In 1939 members of this group were selected to compose the Honor Guard of New York's World Fair, escorting President Roosevelt, King George VI, and Queen Elizabeth through the fair. One year later they were on their way to war. 100 More Join Services
Since this first group left, more than 100 additional students from Haskell have joined the armed forces. Solon G. Ayers, superintendent, says few men have been drafted, "they get rambunctious and volunteer for service."
Hundreds of former students also are in the military service, sans warpaint and buckskin. From the Institute training courses in welding, electricity, auto-mechanics, and machine shop work, students have enlisted in the armed forces and are now serving in ordnance divisions and as mechanics in the air force Three Die In Action
Of these fighting braves, three have already gone to the Happy Hunting Ground. Alexander Matthews was killed in action at Pearl Harbor; Philip Coon was killed at Bataan; Andrew Chisholm met death while in training.
In addition to her men in uniform, Haskell is making another contribution to the war effort—its men and women being trained for positions on the industrial front. From training courses in plumbing, masonry, upholstery, painting, and carpentry, Indians have entered factories and joined construction crews all over the nation where skilled labor is a prime requisite for speed in production.
Make Haskell Self-Operating
Long ago the heads of the Institute realized that practical instruction gave results most fitted for the nation's needs. So now students in

Contact dermatitis is typified by ivy poisoning and the testing is illustrated with ragweed oil. Infectious allergy is typified by tuberculin hypersensitiveness detected by application of the tuberculin patch test.
all courses get actual experience in the work they are studying.
Students build houses, wire them, fit them with plumbing, landscape them. They operate the bakery at the Institute, work in the power plant, and keep other equipment in operating condition.
Indian girls are doing their share. From the commercial courses, girls now fill secretarial positions in governmental agencies. On the west coast where the demand is great, Indian girls are being instructed in welding and in electrical work. A similar curriculum is being planned for Haskell Institute in anticipation of a demand for women workers in this area.

Bole's Cooking Replaces Clock ★★★★★ Guntert "Chef" of Snow
If an instructor in the entamology department should ever tell a student to ask Mr. Gunter for something, in all probability he would not a blank stare. But ask a student to speak to Robert or Bob about it--that're entirely different. Every student who has taken entomology at the University in the last 22 years knows Bob.
Bob joined forces with the University in 1920. He had just moved to Lawrence from a north town which had been his home since he immigrated from Switzerland in 1905. He was interested in bees. He learned that the University had some bee equipment so hoping to purchase it, he approached the powers-that-be in the so-called bug department. The answer was, "No, we don't sell our bee equipment, but you can use it if you'll stay here and care for the bee hives.
Bob (probably called Mr. Gunter for the first year or so) took the job.
His chief duty is preparing specimens for laboratory classes, keeping equipment straight, and so on. In his spare time he has picked up almost every scientific name in the book, and call roll tettigoniidai off his tongue as agilly as the Ph.D's in the department.
The equipment expert is short. He approaches being stocky and his blue eyes twinkle through his glasses in a way which makes you forget his gray shock of approaching 60 hair. No student ever completes an entomology course in Jayhawker territory without having at least one
good-natured joke directed at him by a jovial Bob.
But underneath his genial, sometimes slaphyppart front, the entomologist is consciencious about his work.
Thanks to Bob, professors in east Snow first floor are never irritated by clock watching students from 11:30 until 12:20. During that period entire classes judge the proximity of the long awaited whistle by their olfactory sense. Promptly at 11:50 each day they detect a slight odor of toast circulating around their laboratory. At 12:10 the odor is very noticeable and if the student happens not to be concentrating too intently on the life history of some arthropod (as often is the case) he realizes that this toasty atmosphere means the whistle is just 10 minutes away. By 12:20 Robert has finished grilling sandwiches in his little office, the air has cleared, and the whistle blows.
Robert brings that punctually prepared lunch from home in north Lawrence. He fixes it himself because he got in the habit years ago when his wife used to be busy mornings getting their three sons off to school. Mrs. Guntert, has plenty of time now—the three boys are grown, and in Texas, California and the army—but Robert is used to his own type of lunch. mom-of-his-ka209nrh
Even so, Robert admits there are some hatching entomologists who (continued to page eight)

Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
Just to give you some kind of an idea of the type of opposition Phog Allen's Jayhawk basketball squad will be meeting this year in the season's opener at Kansas City against the Gardner Air Base team—one Ralph Miller might very possibly be on the Air Base lineup. At least that is the report carried by a Wichita paper, where Miller is at present playing professional football. Also on the Gardner lineup will be guard Grady Lewis, whom this writer once witnessed in action with the Bartlesville team, and whom he is convinced is probably one of the greatest defensive and offensive guards of all time. Howie Engleman was previously scheduled to see action with the Gardner team, but latest reports are that he won't make it. There will be plenty of other Big Six and other college aces on Jack Gardner's lineup, however. And the Jayhawks will have only one week of regular practice before the game.
$$
*****
$$
John Cronley's rather sarcastic treatment of the Jayhawk football situation was distinctly in bad taste. After all, Memorial Stadium is used for many other things than just football games—graduation ceremonies, the Coronado spectacle, etc. It is also interesting to note that while Cronley dotted on the Jayhawk's string of seasons of below .500 performances, the Oklahoma Sooners seem to be headed toward just such a season this fall—and it may be the first of a long series of such seasons. Cronley suggests a Kansas graduate for the coaching position here, forgetting that Gwinn Henry's predecessor was a former Jayhawk star—Ad Lindsey, who was also fired from his Sooner coaching position.
$$
***
$$
Cronley was right about one thing—the fact that insufficient financial backing is largely responsible for the Kansas plight. However, there will be no such financial backing here as long as Big Six conference rules expressly forbid subsidization. School authorities are determined to obey conference rules to the letter, whether they are enforced or not. Big Six conference officials are either too blind or too indifferent to notice many flagrant violations of Big Six regulations, many observers declare. At least if there is no intention of enforcing the Big Six rules, they could be repealed giving the Universities with athletic consciences free leash to compete as schools and Iowa State would be at a distinct disadvantage, for there is less best they can with their wealthier brethern. Even then the two Kansas wealth for them to draw upon than at the other three conference schools.
$$
* * * * *
$$
Still being ignored is the suggestion from various sources that the Big Six follow the lead of the Pacific conference in the naming of a conference athletic czar to enforce a high sports standard. Such a move would be a death blow of course to conference schools with high hopes for national ratings. However, certainly it would bring about a tighter and more-closely knit conference. The experiment has proven very successful on the coast, and for the first time the less wealthy schools there are competing on an equal footing with the wealthy endowed universities. It would seem that only those universities who practice wholesale violation of conference rules would oppose the naming of a more definite and dependable authority than the present conference board of representatives. Those whose hands are clean would have nothing to fear by the move.

Yes Sir — Good for You
A rejuvenated squad of bruised and battered Jayhawks cast their ears to the wind, heard a rumbling of Homecoming and Cornhuskers, and whipped through a snappy practice session with anticipating smiles yesterday afternoon.
The squad ran through a fast, but not a very rough, drill in learning how to stop Nebraska's offense. Coach Gwinn Henry also had his charges snagging passes from numerous backs.

Sooner Team Embarks For Iowa State
Norman, Okla., Oct. 29 — After wasting four drives deep into Nebraska territory last Saturday with heart-breaking penalties and fumbles, Oklahoma's big red team was in a grumpy mood this week as it embarked for Ames, Iowa, to meet Iowa State in a Big Six conference game.
And no wonder. The Sooners are still scoreless in four out of five games this year. They lost to Nebraska 0-7. They lost their record of not having dropped a Norman opener in 18 years. They lost Sammy Stephens, senior left tackle, for the season with a broken arm.
Although Oklahoma apparently possesses too much rugged manpower for the Cyclones, plucky Cardinal and Gold teams always give the Sooners a bristling fight at Ames. Oklahoma's Big Six championship club of 1938 defeated Iowa State only 10-0 and two years ago

Two Conference Games on Tap For This Week
Missouri's Tigers, overwhelming favorites to cop the conference championship, have a chance to regain for the Big Six some of its prestige lost in earlier non-conference setbacks. Don Faurot's squad will meet the star-studded Great Lakes Naval Training Station eleven.
Two conference and a pair of non-conference games this week make up the Big Six gridiron menu, as the pigskin season swings past the halfway mark.
The Great Lakes squad has as yet this fall failed to live up to the expectations of its followers, but is expected to make its power felt any Saturday now. The station's roster contains such backs as Bruce Smith, Minnesota great, and Pete Kmetovic, Stanford star of Rose Bowl fame. Leading the Tiger backs will be, of course, Bob Steuber, the nation's

ACP's Jay Richter Reports from Washington
Washington—(ACP)—As this is written, the Potomac is overrunning its banks; from the top of the Washington monument one can see the turgid waters filling low areas throughout the District of Columbia. Six days and nights of steady rainfall have left Washington war workers, Congressmen, officials and "parasites" limp and damp and crotchety.
The wettest week in Washington history is also a week of the greatest historical significance to American colleges. Strong currents also are running $ ^{ \textcircled{1}} $
through Congress and administrative offices. The bill to draft 18 and 19-year-olds is about to be passed; the senators are wrestling with it right now.
That bill may determine whether your education and, if you do, what shape it may take during the remainder of your years, or months, in school.
By the time you read this perhaps you may be able to prompt us on some of the points, but here's the way the picture looks now:
Most teen-aged college students won't be called into military service until the end of this school year. This is particularly true of competent students, especially those taking scientific and technical courses.
After this year, when inroads on college teen-agers are likely to be relatively heavy, the question of who shall remain in school will be a stickler. The draft bill itself isn't likely to lay down strict stipulations on this matter—it will be left to administrative decision.
Broadly, administrative officials will base their decision on two major considerations: the course a student is taking and his scholastic record.
England's policies are a key to what may happen to students here. Although there has been about a 25 per cent drop in overall enrollment in Britain, scientific and technical departments of the colleges are cram-full of students. Obviously, the drop has occurred in liberal arts courses.
And obviously, these same courses will suffer in America. Officials in the Office of Education here believe that American arts colleges haven't done all they should to cope with that inevitable situation.
These officials feel that some educators are slow to recognize the inevitability of the drop-off in enrollment and, consequently, are slow to prepare for it.
First, say the officials, these educators should expand their curricula, and quickly, to include additional science courses, courses in physical education and the like. In short, courses that tie in more closely with prosecution of the war.
Conversion, in many cases, hasn't been thorough and it hasn't been prompt.
Second, arts educators should devise a plan right away for keeping their best students—scholastically speaking—in school. The need in this war for trained, educated men and women is as great as the need for front line fighters. It is highly important that the "right" students remain to study. Recommendations of the arts colleges will probably determine which are the "right" students, even though final decision will, theoretically, be up to the government.

Three High School Wits On Tonight's Brainbuster
"Classroom Problems in Democracy" will be the subject for KFKU's Brainbuster program from9:30 till 10 tonight. The wits will be three students from the University High School, Wilma Wells, senior; William Watson, senior; and Bob Mallot, junior. The students are sponsored by Miss Ruth Lichen, instructor in the high school.
JAYHAWKS RUN--enough to complete five out of seven shots.
(continued from page four) jury. He will definitely see no action against the Cornhuskers. Long Re-injured
Gene Long, who has been holding down a guard berth, played a few minutes in the K-State game but re-injured his knee and it is doubtful that he will see much action Saturday.
Joe Crawford, the other first string guard, is confined to the hospital with an infected shin. The lacerated shin was reinjured in the K-State game. Crawford has a chance to see some action.
Gene Sherwood, plunging fullback, has a badly bruised hip and it is doubtful if he sees any action. Sherwood will be sorely missed in the short-handed Kansas backfield. Roberts Stars
Phi Psi's, Medics Win Football Games
Gene Roberts added a spark to the backfield with his back-to-normal runs this week. Coaches held their breath in hope that perhaps Roberts' trick knee might be in shape for the clash with the Cornhuskers. If his performance in yesterday's practice session was any indication, there is no doubt about his readiness. He scampered about the field untouched in the true Roberts' fashion.
Sigma Phi Epsilon was nosed out by the men of Phi Kappa Psi 6 to 0 in yesterday's intramural touch football prize game.
Ray Evans' injured eye is healing well, and he will be all set to go Saturday. Evans is still leading the nation in pass completions. Although he ran nearly all day with the ball at Manhattan he stopped long
Only for a short period in the third quarter did the Psi's appear to outclass the Sig Ep unit and a running pass to Dick Miller in the end zone cinched Phi Psi victory.
Jack Horner, Dick Miller, and Max Kissell stood out above the Phi Psi's fast charging line and smooth backfield, whereas no Sig Ep man played better than the man beside him.
The Medic Whiz Kids moved along according to schedule in their yesterday's game by overpowering Pi Kappa Alpha 12-0. The Kids have shown great power and drive and are expected to be near the top, if not on top, in the final standings.
Triangle slipped by Jolliffe hall in their Wednesday game 12-6 with Jack Smith taking a pass into enemy pay dirt, and Glenn Sankey intercepting an aerial for the Triangle payoffs.
Pflugerville forfeited their Wednesday game to Theta Tau.
As no official intramural referee was provided for the Delta Chi, John Moore Co-op game, and because the appointed Delta Chi and John Moore referee could not agree on a deciding touchdown, the game will have to be played again. Because of the increasing importance of intramural athletics, competing groups are hoping that a more satisfactory system of obtaining intramural officials can be worked out.
Rock Chalk Co-op won their game from Hopkins Hall 7-0. A Reber to Pfister pass tallied six points against the hopeful "Hoppers", and Hartzel converted the extra point.
SOONER TEAM--enough to complete five out of seven shots.
(continued from page four) Iowa State had a touchdown called back that might have given her the victory, Oklahoma eventually winning, 20-7.
The game could be dangerous for the Sooners if they go into it without first lifting themselves from the doldrums that attended their Nebraska frustration.
Prevailing over the squad was an air of readiness for the game with Nebraska. The squad is definitely going into the game with nothing but winning ideas, and that spirit is a source of encouragement to head Coach Gwinn Henry.
ROCK CHALK TALK--noon when Dick Carmean, Phi Gam, called her. As it happened Gloria Brinkman, Chi O, at Carmean's suggestion, was on the extension and by lowering her voice, Gloria managed to convey a fair imitation of Carmean, having a little trouble explaining some of the

One Sig Ep sadly remarked that several boards had been given already. It sounds like a good idea, but probably half the student population wouldn't feel like sitting after mid-semester.
In Professor Raymond Wheeler's Psychology of Salesmanship and Advertising, Wheeler was talking about muscular coordination and how difficult it was for a person to wiggle his ears. Wheeler called on one boy to try this feat. The boy, after screwing his face into many peculiar positions, gave up. Wheeler again emphasized the point.
All this time, while Wheeler's back was turned, C. E. Russell, Phi Psi, was disproving Wheeler's theory as fast as Wheeler was proving it, because Russell was wiggling his ears for the other members of the class.
At last, Wheeler noticed Russell and he stared in amazement at his wiggling ears. Wheeler finally made the concession that it was possible since lots of donkeys wiggle their ears.
PSGL Freshmen Plan For Election Next Week
The nominating committee of the PSGL freshman organization is considering candidates for the president of the freshman class and Men's Student Council member. The two officers will be chosen by the group at a meeting next Tuesday evening.
At the first meeting of the group last week, the following officers were elected: Homer Hoover, president; Bob Ready, vice-president; Joe Beeler, secretary; and treasurer, Don Diehl.

In the other non-conference game Kansas State will meet the Wichita University Shockers at Wichita in the Shockers' Homecoming game. The state squad holds no edge over the Wichita team, and will be fortunate indeed if it stops star fullback Sturdy of the Munies sufficiently to defeat the Wichita team.
Last week Wichita held the F. Riley squad to a single touchdown loss. Earlier this fall the army squad had
Wichita Holds Army
Nebraska, the only Big Six squad expected to seriously challenge Missouri's leadership in the conference standings, will take a leading part in Kansas Homecoming festivities, as they tangle with the Jayhawks at Memorial Stadium. The Huskers are expected to win by at least three touchdowns by observers. Injuries have further riddled any hopes the Kansas squad might have held for victory.
However, with junior Ray Evans pitching passes, the Jayhawks will probably threaten the Nebraska goal more than once.
Oklahoma Favored
Oklahoma figures to win easily over Iowa State in the Cyclones' Homecoming tussle. However, the Iowa State squad has shown flashes of real ability this fall, and might upset the Soders. Royal Lohry, Cyclone star, is due to break loose on some touchdown runs and passes.
The Sooners will be smarting under the defeat handed them last week by Nebraska, and will be fighting to stay in the conference championship race. The game, according to some observers, may turn into a high-scoring affair, with superior Sooner reserve power telling in the last half.

Regimented War Education
The lowering of the draft age to 18 by Congress is certain to have a far-reaching effect on the 1700 United States colleges. The big question in the minds of American educators and students is "How far will it go?"
One thing is certain: If the war goes on, all college work will be centered upon military training and war courses. The change may be gradual, but the exclusion of non-military subjects from college curricula is already the aim of the Army and Navy. Many colleges, including the University, have taken the first step in that direction by placing emphasis on newly-initiated war courses.
The speed with which our campuses are converted into training camps depends, of course, upon who runs them. Time magazine reported last week that Army and Navy leaders want to wrest the control from college officials. If the war administration decides to take over the colleges, nothing could prevent the transfer.
Cognizant of the power aligned against them leaders of the American Council on Education have agreed upon a plan: All college students will be chosen jointly by military and college officials from the nation's high school graduates. These men would be allowed to pick their college and attend classes for four semesters.
They would be members of an Enlisted Training Corps, would be uniformed,paid base army allowance,and given basic officer training under R.O.T.C. When the four semesters are completed,picked students would stay in college for advanced professional or technical training; the others would go directly into the armed forces.
The American Council on Education, of which the University is a member, is an endowed organization which selects its members from American colleges. Its officers are educators who are connected with no single university. Its power is only advisory.
This proposed plan, which was devised by James Bryant Conant, president of Harvard, includes a feature which the drafting of 18- and 19-year-olds will make necessary in education's new role—that of picking men for college training.
Under the new draft provisions, no physically fit youth over 18 will be a civilian. If he goes to college, he will do so only because military and college officials believe that he is deserving of it, and he will be already enlisted in one of the armed forces.
The plan of the American Council on Education is a logical approach to the problem of how to maintain colleges in wartime and still increase the war effort.

Letters to the Editor
★
Student rights in the Student Union Building are in peril. It is time for something to be done about it. Just as it would be humiliating to win the war and lose the peace, so it is to sacrifice needlessly and stupidly culture and the things for which this war is being fought.
The Carnegie Foundation gave the Student Union a magnificent Lyon and Healy record player and a fine, varied collection of records for the benefit of the students of the University of Kansas. Some of the students would like to take advantage of this excellent opportunity to hear great music. It is practically the only opportunity some of the underprivileged students ever have to listen to records.
What actually happens though is entirely different. Several times every week dinners are scheduled in the Old English room. In spite of the fact that all day long until evening the announcement that the Music room is open appears on the Union Bulletin board, the hostess always informs students who made a special effort to use the record collection that the Music room is never open on evenings that dinners are scheduled in the Old English room.
Due to war emergencies the former Music room was converted into an Officer's Club which is perfectly all right. The Old English room was supposedly made the Music room from 7:30 to 9:30 week day nights excepting Saturdays and on Sunday afternoons from 2:30 to 5:00. Such a plan if it were carried out in practice would be entirely acceptable to all students interested in the Music room.
Such a policy rather discourages students interested in music from ever making use of the superb Lyon and Healy record player. Perhaps since
the management's policy is so unappreciative of the Carnegie gift that it should be taken from under their jurisdiction.
A compromise might be made. There are usually recitals Monday evenings, so it might be a good plan to have the Music room open four nights a week without fail—Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 7:30 to 9:30. The Old English room could be used Saturday, Sunday, and Monday but no other evenings in the week for dinners.
The people who want to schedule dinners on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thurdays, and Friday evenings in the Old English room could do their entertaining in their own private homes or downtown or somewhere else on those evenings.
If having the Music room open four nights a week were to hinder the war effort, there might be some excuse for the present state of affairs. It seems, however, only to demonstrate poor management. During these war times with the added strain of stepped up schedules and no vacations, students need added rather than subtracted recreational facilities. That is supposed to be the function of the Student Union.
Students need vitamins not contained in bottles. Music is certainly as essential for mental health as Popeye's spinach for his muscles.

Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges
Popeye's favorite food was saved Sunday, thanks to volunteers of the University of Pennsylvania who spent Sunday at a farm near Trenton, picking vitamin-packed spinach. There were 6000 acres to be picked.
There will be a weekday afternoon Land Corps duty after Oct. 31, when the fall harvest will reach its peak. For a period of five or six weeks thereafter there will be weekday and weekend work.
School a Full-time Job
All financially able students enlisted in reserves will be compelled to attend the summer session at the University of Nebraska under the present accelerated program.
Students already enrolled in reserves and signed to attend the session will be compelled to do so. This statement officially clears up the rumor which was to the effect that reservists would not have to attend summer school.
T. J. Thompson, dean of student affairs, recommends that women enroll in the summer term as he believes that eventually everyone will be directly connected in the war effort or in active service.
But they Lost the Game
Indiana University celebrated its homecoming last weekend. There was a victory parade, a bonfire, and a program of brief speeches. Houses were decorated although this year a limitation was made as to the amount of money to be spent by each house for temporary decorations.
Purdue Rooters Not So Happy
It may have been homecoming at Purdue University, but that made no difference to the Wisconsin Badgers, who came down and defeated the hosts 13 -0.
Between halves of the game the members of the 1917 football squad were introduced to the crowd. It had been a team much like the present Boilermaker squad—its roster was riddled by losses to the armed forces, and then there were transportation and schedule difficulties too. That team was honored at a banquet Saturday night.

Mary Lee Chapple, right fullback played an outstanding defensive game and Frances Davison, left inner, also played a scrappy game in the front line.
After the game, Miss Charlotte Curran, physical education director at Baker, was in charge of entertainment for the two squads at one of the dormitories.
The Baker women will meet the Kansas squad here Nov. 10 in a return game.
Other members of the Kansas squad are Milford Wells, right wing; Betty Harper, right inse; Edith Boehmor, left wing; Betty Bowen, right half; Marge Rader, center half; Marion Eisele, left half; Frances Davison, left fullback; Kathryn Schaake, galee.
Camouflage ★★★
Horr Speaks on World War I
Worthie Horr, assistant professor of botany and camouflure in World War I, lectured last night to the students of camouflage, on techniques in camouflage problems on the battle front. Professor Horr described incidents connected with camouflage at Argonne and Verdun in World War I. Although equipment and tactics of war are now different, many problems of concealing objects are the same, Professor Horr stated.
Aerial photographs are so sensitive in detecting change in position of grass or vegetation, and unnatural shadows that care must be given to these details. Trails must be brushed with a grass or brush broom; crushed grass has to be pushed back into shape; unseasonal vegetation or natural growths must not be used. Texture and form of the camouflage, and the nature of the surroundings must be studied before beginning the project.
Throughout the lecture, lantern slides of landscapes were used to emphasize points of interest. Professor Horr exhibited a minature camouflage net similar to ones used in the field. The students will make a full-size camouflage net as one of their class projects.

Philip Lin, Chinese exchange student who is studying for a doctor of philosophy degree from the School of Business, spoke this afternoon in the department of design in Spooner-Thayer museum on his collection of Chinese relics.
Chinese Exchange Student Lectures On Relic Collection
The public can see the collection exhibited in two cases near the foot of the stairs in the basement of Spooner-Thayer museum. The displays include Chinese pottery, metal, hand paintings and embroidery work. Several funeral pieces, so called because they were buried with a body, are over a thousand years old. Some pieces date back to the Sung dynesty. Represented in the show are figures, animals, temple bells, dishes and vases in either metal or pottery.

"If we took weekend trips, which was very rarely because our gasoline is shipped in, we generally drove to Balboa, located near Panama City on the Isthmus," said Max. "There night clubs, called beer gardens, enjoy the patronage of the younger people. The conga is a very popular dance, but varies a great deal from th American version." Motion Pictures Popular
In Panama, outside of sports, their favorite recreation was attending motion pictures. Movies are very popular there, with a translation of characters' lines running below the screen. Many of the Spanish-speaking families, learning English, attend theaters to familiarize themselves with the language.
Reasons as to why the men selected this university were revealed when they said that it was far inland and isolated from Spanish-speaking people. Their father attended Yale University and the Marquez family, parents, three girls, and four boys have attended college here. Senor Marquez and the eldest son are pharmacists in Chitre.

Company. She died in 1938 at the age of 85.
(continued from page one)
The committee to administer the Stephens Bequest, as provided by Miss Stephens' document, is to consist of the dean's of the Schools of Law, Medicine, Liberal Arts, Graduate School and the librarian of the University. Because Judge Stephens had been invited to become the first dean of the Law School, the agreement specifies that the dean of the Law School serve as chairman of the bequest committee.
Judge Stephens felt that the University, scarcely half a dozen years old, should establish a chair of law as a part of its instructional facilities and proceeded to try to sell his idea to the board of regents and to Chancellor John Fraser. His efforts were rewarded. In 1878 when the law school was established as a part of the University, and James Woods Green, son-in-law of Judge Stephens, was made head of the school. "Uncle Jimmy" Green became the patron Saint of University law students.
Wanted Law School
Miss Stephens was the daughter of Judge Nelson Timothy Stephens. He was practicing law in Moravia, N. Y., when the civil war broke out. He served in the Union Army through the war, at the end of which he was mustered out, apparently suffering from tuberculosis. He was sent south to recover, and gradually worked his way back north where he finally reached Kansas City. He looked longingly westward into Kansas, finally migrating to Paola, and then to the Kaw Valley near Lawrence. Here he soon became a land owner, a legal practitioner, and chose to educate his daughters at the University. He practiced law and was made a district judge.
Currently the committee will be composed of Fred J. Moreau, dean of the Law School; Dr H. R. Wahl, dean of the School of Medicine; Dr Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College; Dr Ellis B. Stouffer, dean of the Graduate School; and C. M. Baker, University librarian.

In the third year, the bequest committee is instructed to spend the year's income in behalf of the College to establish a fellowship "in literature or comparative literatures or history or ethics and to be given to a young man or woman candidate who has already graduated from some one of the schools of the University, whose interests are humanitarian rather than commercial or narrowly scientific."
During the fourth, fifth, and sixth years, the bequest committee is requested to apply the income exactly as in the first three years—to the School of Medicine, Law, and the College of Liberal Arts and Science In the seventh year, the committee shall "in the name of the Graduation School . . . and of the Library of the University, disburse and bestow said income upon a citizen of Kansas, or upon a citizen of the Mississippi Valley—upon that man or woman whose work or works have appeared in print within the seven years foregoing their action whose book or books written in the mother-tongue of Americans, now called the English language, are, in the judgement of the . . . Committee, of originality and superiority in conception and execution, and of taste, proportion and outstanding scholarship."
This award is to be the Byron Caldwell Smith Award.

All members of the University Band, Kuku's and Jay Janes will meet at 1:25 Saturday afternoon at the stadium for final rehearsals before the homecoming game. Bob Bellamy, drum major, asks that all members be present.

As commander of the First Armed Guard aboard the S.S. St. Paul in 1917, Capt. Lofquist was in London when America declared war on Germany.
He served as executive officer on the S.S. Great Northern, which was the ship that established the record for the fastest round-trip passage made by any transport between New York and Brest. It made six war-time Atlantic crossings.
Since the war, he has served as instructor in the department of navigation at Annapolis, as navigator of the West Virginia, and as executive officer of the California. Serving as Chief of Staff of the Ninth Naval District from 1937 to 1939. Capt. Lofquist was ordered in January, 1939, to the command of the USS Oklahoma.

For the second straight week the Jayhawks will present an injury-ridden eleven against a Big Six conference foe, as Gwinn Henry's Kansas squad attempts to score its second conference victory of the year against the strong Nebraska Cornhuskers at Memorial Stadium tomorrow afternoon.
Changes have again been necessitated at the guard positions, and at right halfback position.
Federal Loans To 20 Students

The Federal Loan Committee, which met this morning, granted loans from government funds to 18 men and 2 women, it was announced by Henry Werner, chairman of the committee.
The amount of these loans is not yet known. To date a total of $3,680 from government funds has been lent to 12 students, who are participating in the accelerated school program in accordance with the Labor-Federal Security Appropriation Act.
Members of the committee serving under Mr. Werner are Doctor Gordon, medical school representative from the teaching staff in Kansas City; Prof. O. O. Stoland, secretary of the School of Medicine; Loren Eiseley, assistant professor of sociology, D. D. Haines, assistant professor of civil engineering; and F. E. Kester, professor of physics.
Joe Crawford and Gene Long, regular guards, have both recovered sufficiently from injuries that it is likely they will see some action.
*Manhattan. They are Lewis Musick, red-headed sophomore from California, and Carl Hird, Lawrence boy who began the season as a regular tackle. Hird's vacated tackle post will once again be occupied by big Don Johnson, the former Topeka High star.
At the seemingly jinxed right half position Henry has named sophomore back Kenneth Adams as his probable choice. Adams has been seeing increased action in recent games, and has showed marked ability in pass defense and receiving.
The right halfback post has been a source of worry to Henry throughout the season. Gene Roberts, flashy runner from Kansas City, was originally scheduled to fill the post, but received a knee injury prior to the opening game. Joe Roberts, a reserve fullback, then moved up to the position, but was also injured.

Band Aids Bond Drive at Game
Plans Patriotic Skit
Cooperating with the all-out bond drive, the homecoming field show of the University band will be dedicated to the sale of war bonds and stamps. Prof. Russell L. Wiley, director of the band, said that he was glad of the opportunity for the band to promote this drive because, if it failed, there wouldn't be any more band displays or homecoming celebrations. In a brief introductory broadcast Mr. Wiley will urge patrons to invest in bonds and stamps.
"America," in marchtime, will be the opening number. As the band moves into the formation of a Liberty Bell, it will play "Battle Hymn of the Republic." After the bell is formed, the band will play "America The Beautiful." The bell formation, Professor Wiley explained, is to symbolize liberty and justice for all.
The second formation is to be a church steeple, signifying freedom of worship. Just preceding this number, Professor Wiley will urge the purchase of bonds, and members of the ROTC will circulate through the crowd to accept any purchases or pledges. Two hymns will be played during the steeple formation: "God
of Our Fathers" and "Doxology." "Old Glory" will be the final formation. At this time a 1 by 20 foot American flag will be unfurled. The music will be the national anthem which the crowd will join in singing. Professor Wiley has transposed "The Star Spangled Banner" into a lower key, so that the range will not be so difficult for the average voice. No stunts or baton play will characterize this field exhibition.

Teachers in Demand Chandler Reports
Students graduating in the School of Education this semester will have no trouble in getting a job, H. E. Chandler, of the teachers' appointment bureau, said today.
The bureau is receiving as many as 10 calls a day for teachers for next semester, with music teachers much in demand. Salaries are increasing in nearly every case. The average salary for music and English teachers is $150 per month. Towns of two and three hundred population are offering such salaries.
Committee Will Select Queen Tonight at Rally
Many calls are from out of the state. Four hundred and eleven of the 1653 calls received this fall were from other states, including four from Alaska. Missouri, Nebraska, Colorado, and other neighboring states rank high in opportunities for teacher placements.
Mr. Chandler urges all who are graduating this semester and desire teaching positions, to come to the Bureau office in Frank Strong hall as soon as possible. He can give them more help in securing satisfactory jobs, if they personally interview him.
The Homecoming queen, who will be presented between halves at the Kansas-Nebraska football game, will be selected by a special judging committee at the rally and dance in Hoch auditorium tonight. Members of the judging committee will not be announced until they are presented during the program.
Gilbert Ulmer, chairman in charge of Homecoming queen selection, reports that all organized and semi-organized houses have been invited to enter a candidate. Also, women not living in one of these houses may enter the competition. The judges will reach their decision and announce the queen during the dance.
When the candidates arrive at the rally, each will receive a number, which will be her only identification. Candidates will be interviewed by the committee, and will be observed during the evening at the rally and dance. Judges will base their selection upon the individual interviews and observations.
The competitors for Homecoming queen will dress informally and wear no sorority pins or jewelry that might identify them to the judges. They will not be introduced individually, but in a group, to the audience.
Design Department Will Exhibit Work
The department of design will exhibit 10 mounts of work done in the department at the State Teachers meeting at Topeka, during Nov 6 and 7.
Included in the samples of work will be air brush design, abstractions inspired by music, illustrative designs, textile designs, and problems from the industrial art classes. Other schools of the state have also been requested to send exhibits.
IN THE ARMY they say—
"BUBBLE DANCING" for dish-washing
"MASH MARK" for service stripe
"WIGH BALL" for an extra snappy salute
CAMEL" for their favorite cigarette
With men in the Army, Navy, Marines,
and Coast Guard, the favorite cigarette
is Camel. (Based on actual sales records
in Post Exchanges and Canteens.)
The "T-Zone"
where cigarettes are judged
The "T-ZONE"—Taste and Throat—is the proving ground for cigarettes. Only your taste and throat can decide which cigarette tastes best to you...and how it affects your throat. For your taste and throat are individual to you. Based on the experience of millions of smokers, we believe Camels will suit your "T-ZONE" to a "T."

Homecoming a Tradition Since 1913
Ceremonies Stopped By First World War
Homecoming is not a time-hallowed tradition with a legendary background like boat racing on the Potomac or the wearing of silk hats at Eton. The first day of this kind was held at the University of Illinois in 1911, when a special effort was made to get the alumni back to attend a football game. Two years later, in 1913, it was adopted by the University of Kansas.
Homecoming is always cek braska game if it is an even year, and at the time of the Missouri game on odd years.
It was 29 years ago, in 1913, that Homecoming became an institution at the University. Alfred "Scoop" Hill, Alumni secretary from 1520-24, was responsible for the idea, according to Frof. L. N. Flint of the department of journalism, who was secretary of the alumni in 1913. Hill is now the publisher of the Chester Times in Chester, Penn. Result of Homecoming game — Nebraska 0, Kansas 0.

The advent of the World Wai overshadowed school traditions, and the day was not celebrated again until 1919 when it was revived under the direction of H. B. Hungerford, who at present is professor of ontology. Feeling ran so high that Homecoming became a regular feature of the football season, a day to bring the alumni back to the alma mater. Missouri 13, Kansas 8.
In 1920 "Ole Timer's night took its place in the Homecoming program. Lawrence merchants decorated their stores, and the University Daily Kansan instituted its custom of issuing a special Homecoming edition. The year is long to be remembered for the famous tie with Nebraska. Nebraska 20. Kansas 20.
A special celebration on the day preceding Homecoming was introduced in 1921, when the men of the University held a special ball-fest "for men only." Pardes became a part of the schedule. Elkhorn C. Kansas 15.
"Beat Mizzou" appeared for the first time in 1925, and became the battle cry for future generations. Missouri 7. Kansas 19.
Ceremonies Broadcasted
"Homecoming by Radio," which included the dedication of the new Memorial stadium, was a feature of the 1822 program. Nebraska 23 Kansas 0. Station WDAF, Kansas City, Mo., broadcast the day's events. In 1823, "Hobo Day" was initiated Today the students go around in jeans all the time, so it wouldn't make any difference anyway. Missouri 3. Kansas 3.
Houses Decorated
In 1927 the outstanding feature was the broadcasting of the program over KFKU, the University's radio station. Missouri 7, Kansas 14.
The high spirits of Homecoming were dampened in 1923 by the death of "Chalkis" the mascot of the University. The bird was stuffed and reigned in taxidermic splender over the festivities. Nebraska 29, Kansas 0.

This preable which has 9 years, seems to be the very epistasisociationhas accomplished through this period of time. Formed in 1883, ten years after the University gave its first degree, the Alumni Association elected William Herbert Carruth, noted teacher and poet, as their first president.
During their first 19 years, following organization, the members confined their activities to annual meetings, speeches, resolutions and banquets; however, from these activities developed plans which today have materialized into significant realities.
One of these early resolutions favored suitable living quarters for women students. By 1912 they had raised more than $7,000 for this cause and later put more than $1,000 of their funds into houses for women who needed financial aid. This movement grew to such statewide operations that by 1921 the legislature appropriated funds to build girls' dormitories at all state schools. Magazine in 1902
The Graduate Magazine, monthly publication of the Alumni Association, which was started in 1902, was the 13th alumni magazine founded in the United States. At the time of its first appearance, activity within the organization was rather slow and the leaders became quite discouraged at times. Finally, it was decided to hire a secretary to manage the work of the Association and edit the magazine; the person chosen for this job was Leon N. Blint, a teacher with considerable newspaper experience and ability. During his eleven years as secretary he rapidly built up the membership of the Association and so built up the printing plant which the University eventually bought.
One of the means used to keep the alumni unified has been the publication of alumni catalogs or directories, which are large books containing names, addresses and occupations of graduates. The first book was published in 1830 and the last, containing 1230 names, was released in 1928.
War Records Complete
During the years from 1516 until 1920, the task of obtaining and assembling war records of KU men and women who were in the service was exceedingly great. The grenadier work of Miss Agnes Thompson, secretary during those years, speaks for itself in the records along that line that are now available at the Alumni office.
Following the war, during the greatest revival that the University has had, A. G. Hill, a dynamic publicity man, became the new secretary of the Alumni Association. Following Mr. Hill's resignation in 1924. Fred Ellsworth, present secretary, was employed in his place. Files On 32,000 Graduates
The alumni office now has in its files the names of approximately 32,000 living graduates and former student non-graduates.
For each of these persons there is an envelope containing pictures,
newspaper clippings, personal letters and other biographical data which has been obtained through the years. There are now fifty-five alumni clubs over the country. These clubs like for some official of the University to speak at their meetings. If this is possible, the office sends movies, and letters from members of the University staff; printed material, pictures of the campus, song cards and other material.
One of the most recent developments of the Alumni Association is the University Representation council, which consists of appointed official representatives in each of 137 communities of the state regardless of whether a local alumni club exists there. The job of these official representatives is to furnish infor-

Ready for reserve duty at the half spot, however, will be Frosty Wilson. one of the better blockers on the Kansas squad. Gene Roberts has appeared to be well on his way to recovery in this week's practice sessions, and may be the surprise of the game tomorrow. If the speedster's leg holds up, he can run with any of the Cornhusker backs.
Rounding out the remainder of the Jayhawk starting backfield will be tricky Hoyt Baker, the brilliant Ray Evans, and Ed Linquist. Linquist*'s plunging ability in recent games has been especially encouraging to the coaching staff.

Otto Schnellbacher, Evans' favorite receiver, will once again start at the left end berth he recently wrestled away from letterman George Dick.
Penny Will Start
The brilliant sophomore center, Junius Penny, will once again get the nod at the center position. Penny is regarded as one of the finest sophomore performers in the Big Six. Warren Hodges, veteran tackle, and Paul Hardman will occupy the other two starting line positions.
Against the Kansas lineup Nebraska coach Glen Presnell will start an eleven composed of two sophomores and nine veterans. Sparking the Cornhusker backfield once again will be Dale Bradley, an all-conference selection last fall, and who has been going great guns for Nebraska again this year. Ready for duty will be Bradley's brilliant reserve, Al Zikmund, who starred in the 1941 Rose Bowl game at Pasadena.
Sophomore Named
The remainder of the starting backfield quartet, according to Presnell, will be composed of Metheny, Athey, and Eisenhart. Eisenhart is a pile-driving sophomore whose play has been outstanding so far this fall.
The Nebraska line, led by big tackle Vic Schleich, is ready and rough. Only at center will an inexperienced man be stationed, and he is Partington, sophomore prospect who so far this season has been handling himself with the finesse of a veteran.
Joe Bylel, Schleich's running mate at the other tackle post, and two crack ends—Jack Hazen and Marvin Thompson—are other standout Nebraska linesmen.
Huskers Have Subs
Backing up the Husker starters will be plenty of capable reserves—a department in which the Jayhawks are woefully undermanned Kansas practice sesions. however have this week been going off with a new "zing" under the impetus of last week's victory over Kansas State. Coach Gwinn Henry has announced himself as being especially pleased with the spirit being exhibited by the Jayhawks this week.

In 1937 and 1920 the Jayhawks held their rivals to ties, but that is the closest they have come to victory during the past twenty five years.
During the past two years the Jayhawks have in both their meetings with the Cornhuskers suffered defeats by lop-sided scores.
The game will mark the 49th clash between the two squads, with Nebraska holding 36 victories and Kansas nine wins. Three of the contests have ended in ties.

Beta's Roll Over Delt Team,26 to 0
Beta Theta Pi's championship-bound eleven rolled over Delta Tau Delta to the tune of 26 to 0 in the top flight attraction on yesterday's intramural program.
Bill Mowery scored the other touchdown and Dub Hartley finished the scoring when he fell on a loose ball in the Delta Tau's end zone.
Bill Short was again the Beta's shining star. He scampered across to paydirt three times and also played a bang-up defensive game.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon amassed a total of 53 points to thoroughly outclass Delta Upsilon who could not find the route to the goal line. The Sig Alph's used a varied assortment of plays with each man doing his job very well to run up the largest score of the season.
All four of the leading clubs are undefeated. Tau Kappa Epsilon has also a clean slate in Division I, but has played but one game this fall. The Tekes, however, loom as a distinct threat to the Beet's.
Each of the six-man divisions are headed by two undefeated teams. In Division I, Delta Chi and John Moore Co-op have yet to taste defeat. Kappa Eta Kappa and Battenfeld hall are unbeaten in Division II.
Tau Kappa Epsilon provided the thriller when they beat Sigma Nu after the final whistle he blown. With the seconds ticking away Gene Lathkill faded back and tensed a touchdown pass to Bill Webb. The
ball had not reached Webb when the gun sounded.
Theta Tau downed Kappa Sig by a 21 to 0 score. James Jacobs was the star of the game. He accounted for all the scoring with his passes to Clair Sommers and Ted Moser.

Frosh Practice Fundamentals Under Replogle
The freshman gridsters practiced fundamentals and listened to words of wisdom from Coach Wayne Replogle and Hubert "Hub" Ulrich yesterday afternoon.
Coach Replogle stressed the play of the line and gave the rookies instruction in blocking and warding off blockers. Backs were shown the routes through holes and Ulrich gave the ends pointers in charging, breaking up interference, and becoming a general nuisance in the opposition's backfield.
Although the squad did not run through a heavy scrimmage, the signs of an excellent squad were present. The squad, under the watchful eyes of Replogle and Ulrich, is becoming a polished group.
Bill "Stoop" Jamison, the 210-pound tackle from Wichita North, promises to be a Jayhawk bulwark in another year. The big boy handles himself adroitly and uses every pound on his muscular carriage to his advantage.
Keller Shows Progress
Charles Keller, a product of Southwest in Kansas City has shown as much improvement as anyone on the squad. An excellent tackle when he left Southwest, he has listened attentively to Coach Replogle and is polishing up his weak points rapidly.
Albert Voight of Wichita East capably took care of his job at guard. Voight undoubtedly the Al Schacht of the squad, keeps the squad entertained by his pranks.
John Dewell, Bob "Fireplace" Pierce, Bud French, and Monty Waldecker highlight an array of backfield talent. Although the backs did not see much action, they managed to scamper about enough to show some of their brilliant promise.

Commentary by the KANSAN Editorials * Features * Patter
We're Just Starting
Your morning cup of coffee—a luxury now, with rationing a month away—is the climax of a long trip from mountain slopes of South America to the breakfast table. Coffee starts as a bean on a tree and it undergoes various processes from the place of growth to your kitchen.
The annual world production of coffee is approximately 2,082,000,000 pounds. South America alone produces 2,081,000,000. United States production, if any, is negligible.
Coffee-rationing is one phase of this battle of transportation. Sufficient quantities of coffee are grown, but the hitch is in getting it from South America to this country. Enemy submarines have been sending to Davy Jones' locker many boats, some undoubtedly containing coffee from South America.
This is just the start. Until the war is over, we can expect rationing of many commodities, and if the struggle is long we may do without some of these things entirely. Included may be tea, cocoa, spices, bananas, pineapples, and anything else that is not raised in sufficient quantities within the continental United States to meet the demands of this country.
It will be unpleasant. But when you are inclined to complain, remember there are millions of people in Norway, France, Greece, Holland, Belgium, Poland, Italy, Germany or China who would be happy to have the food scraps we often carelessly waste.
Is the A.P. a Monopoly?
The Associated Press is defendant in an anti-trust violation in the United States district court of New York. The two most important contentions of the suit are:
(1) That the Associated Press has no legal right to choose its membership and to reject papers which desire the service of the association, but must furnish its service to a publishers and editors who desire it. (2) That the Associated Press has no right to demand that its members give local news to the Association exclusively.
Representative Michener, Republican from Michigan, insists that it is next to impossible for any news gathering association to have a monopoly on news gathering and distribution. He points out that there are several news gathering agencies and that one of these, the United Press, has service open to any publisher who can pay the price.
The very existence of other news agencies keeps A. P. members from being protected from competition. A great injustice to the Association and its members would be done if competitors were allowed to share without cost the services and good name built up by the Associated Press and its member newspapers. If the Association loses the suit, that is essentially what would happen.
The case charging monopoly against A.P. is entirely out of order. This press association can't be condemned for being monopolistic any more than can a banker or lawyer be condemned because he chooses those persons with whom he wishes to have business relations.
If Associated Press were the only news gathering agency and dictated to newspapers how and when they could buy the Association's news, it would be monopolistic. Associated
Just Wondering
Have seven weeks of school have skipped by and no student directory. Are telephone numbers military secrets. And?
Press is not the only media through which the country's newspapers get their news.
Furthermore, news is free to anyone who has the ability and initiative to get it. In no way does the Associated Press prevent other persons from organizing for the purpose of gathering and disseminating news.
The court's charge that the Associated Press has no right to require its members to furnish news to the Association exclusively is not valid. A.P.is a business organization and responsibility and loyalty of member newspapers in transferring local news to the parent is not different from that of a buyer for a retail concern who owes loyalty and first consideration along business lines to his employer.
The battle may be a long and arduous one, but if freedom of speech and the press is to prevail, the case of the Associated Press must not fail.

PERINS
Dob White and Veronie Norris, 1225 Cread, have both been dating the same girl. Naturally complications arise. To improve his case, Norris persuaded Carl Unruth, also of 1225 Cread, to show said girl a write-up about Bob White in last year's Jaywalker magazine. It was an interview in which White said, probably in fun, that he never took any girl seriously. Since this time, Norris has had the inside track in a big way.

Bob is probably now thinking dark thoughts of revenge.
The Kappa's were more than a little startled the other night when Marjorie Tibbetts, in dead seriousness, arose in active meeting and asked if anyone had seen Jasper Dean, that she had lost him, and if anyone found him would they please, please return him?
They thought at first Marjorie might be referring to a man, but they were wrong. Jasper Dean is simply the first two names of Marjorie's pet turtle who has evidently escaped.
The Sigma Chi's wish to make known that since several members of their notable Anti-German band have gone to do their duty in a more active anti-German organization (namely the army) their band will probably not be heard this year.

All those who have heard the band will be sorry to hear this, and all are grateful to the Sigma Chi's for organizing and presenting the first anti-German band on the Hill. I mean it!
Barbara Wikoff, Sigma Kappa, since her participation in the skit "The Tragedy of Brown," presented in Crafton's variety show, has turned into a quick change artist. The audience marveled at her alacrity in changing costumes.

Bill Sims, ATO, devised an ingenious plan for getting the boys in the house more closely acquainted. He spent one whole night figuring out nicknames for the 52 members.
The result of his planning came out something like this: Fred Coulson is named "Chips," because he likes to play poker; Don Williams, of the Olathe high school Eagles, is named "Eagle;" Mike Gubar of the Star's own service, is "Service;" and Max Webster, popular for the trouble he gives the pledges, is called "The Lear," the villain of the Superman series.
Georgia Ferrel
Vivacious, cheerful and friendly,
Georgia, or "Gigi" as she is known
on the campus, has a number of
varied interests. As a lieutenant in
the Coed Volunteer Corps, "Gigi"
finds that her interests here tie in
with her interest in Ft Leavenworth.
Perhaps it is because she is outstand-
ingly patrotic, but a former K. U.
student who is now a sergeant in the
army might have something to do
with it.
For a coed who has a weakness for banana splits and Ray Milland, Georgia Ferrel, college senior, finds herself in many activities on the Hill.
Not satisfied with being treasurer of Jay Janes or secretary of the Union building activities, Georgia is also the college representative of the Women's Self Governing Association
Music is more than a source of enjoyment to Georgia, for she is a soloist, not only at the Chi Omega house, but also in her church. She was student director of the women's glee club last year and a member of the sextette. She loves Andre Kostelantz's music and has a great number of his records.
She'll Take Milland Leads Activities

probably go to business school when I graduate; everyone does." In spite of the fact that "Gigi" finds time for many outside interests, she does not neglect her studies, for her name has been on the Dean's honor roll for the last two years.
Georgia does not participate in many sports but considers basketball and baseball best to watch. The reason she likes these sports is that "there is something going on every minute," which is similar to her own college life.
Georgia's hobby is collecting phonograph records. She also attends picture shows in every spare minute she has. "There's no one quite like Bette Davis," she'll argue with anyone who'll listen.
Asked if there was anything on the campus that she would change if she could, "Gigi" only laughed and said, "Well, I'd probably fix it so everyone could have a long, long Christmas vacation."

From 'Paradise' to Hoch Bali Dancers
Devi Dja and her Bali-Java dancers, Oriental dancers from the Dutch East Indies, will dance in Hoch auditorium 8:20 Monday evening as the second attraction of the University Concert Course.
Coming from the Island of Bali, which has sometimes been referred to as "The Last Paradise on Earth," the troupe of dancers
will dance to the nature music of their native land. Native costumes of the group will lend color and contrast to the program.
The chief dancer and star of the company is Devi Dja, whose dancing has won her unusual recognition from leading dance critics of European capitals, and who has been acclaimed by the American press as a "superb artist," "incomparable," and a dancer of accomplishment. She organized the Bali-Java dancers company six years ago, and decided on a world tour to demonstrate to peoples of other countries the heretofore jealously guarded dances of their land.
Single admissions for this event are now on sale at the School of Fine Arts office and at the regular down town stations, Bell's Music store and the Round Corner Drug store. A final chance is being offered by Dean D. M. Swarthout, manager of the concert course, for persons to purchase tickets for the remaining five attractions at a discount over the regularly announced prices. These tickets must be secured at the Fine Arts office before Monday evening.

He edits the magazine, makes trips over the state in interests of the University and Association, and at commencement, he more or less manages the entire show.
