MSC Starts Fight To Regain Power New Dates Set For Registering Of18-Year-Olds Selective Service registration for men who became 18 in July or August will take place in the week beginning Dec. 11 and ending Dec. 17 in accordance with President Roosevelt's announcements on Nov. 18. The president also set the registration dates for those men who became 18 in September and October for the following week and the registration for those who became 18 in November or December for the week Dec. 26-31. Men becoming 18 after Dec. 31 will register on their birthdays or, if that falls on a Sunday or a holiday, the day following. As the act is now, only students of accredited secondary schools will be granted induction postponements. It does not, according to Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, chief of the selective service, include postponements for students in elementary or grammar schools or for students of the college on university level. Local boards were instructed last month to reclassify men with convictions of crimes. Deferment will not be granted these in the future unless they are disqualified morally and not eligible for a waiver under new army standards. ... BUY WAR STAMPS ...

According to Professor Kuersteiner the entire program will be very concise. It will be approximately one hour in length. Activity books will admit students and all men in uniform will be admitted free. "Rights or Resign Is Council Resolve By Bill Haage Men's Student Council members last night resolved that the entire Council would resign if governing rights allotted to them and allegedly appropriated by the administration are not returned to them. Religious Week Is In Progress A resolution passed unanimously by the Council states that student governing rights have been arbitrarily taken from them, The Rev. Warren Grafton, minister of the Country Club Christian church, Kansas City, Mo., as speaker at tonight's banquet, will emphasize the theme of the week, "The Relevance of Christian Faith Today." For cabinet and faculty members primarily of all church and student groups, including YWCA and YMCA, the banquet will be given at 6:30 p.m. in the Memorial Union building. Show "Back To Jerusalem" Today through Thursday has been set aside by the Student Christian Federation as the Religious Emphasis week—the period during which all church groups of the University and groups from Lawrence churches combine to effect a united Christian impact on students. Annual observance of this week started with special services in the various churches, Sunday continuing today with a banquet, a moving picture tomorrow and three meetings Thursday — convocation, luncheon, and discussion group. A special film, 'Back to Jerusalem' will be shown at 8 p.m. tomorrow in Fraser theater. This film concerns the problems of persecution of minority groups such as Jews, but the (continued on page two) Werner Represents University on NYA Henry Werner, adviser of men, has received an appointment by the National Youth Administration as a member of the College Work council in Kansas. The council is composed of one representative from each of the five state educational institutions, universities, agricultural colleges, teacher's colleges, junior colleges, and denominational schools. The council considers the regional work program of the NYA and problems connected with it. There will be a meeting of the Kansas council Saturday at Kansas State College in Manhattan. and the resolution calls for the mass resignation of all members of the Council, with no provision being made for their replacement. Stating that the members will "be done with the illusion of student government where no chance for student government exists," the resolution cites a list of grievances against the administration, and demands that "some workable plan of active student participation" in school government be set up. Committee Named It names a committee headed by Bob White, College senior, to confer "frankly and openly with the Chancellor to ascertain exactly what power and scope" the MSC "possesses in the eyes of the administration." Other members of the committee are Vernon McKale, Council president, John "Scoot" Somers, and Carl Unruh. Touched off by the shortening of Christmas vacations, the resolution states that this and other decisions, which should have been made only after consultation with the MSC, have been made without consulting the Council. Decisions Made Other decisions which have been made by the administration and which the MSC asserts should have been made in conjunction with the Council include: depriving students of control of the activity fee; denying freedom of the press; taking over from the Council decisions on campus parking and varsity dance rulings failure to consult with the Joint Committee on Student Affairs, a committee of faculty members and students which is supposed to aid the administration on school management; and depriving the students (continued to page two) Victory Varsity Planned For Saturday Evening A Victory Varsity will be held from 9 to 12 Saturday night in Hoch auditorium.

Before the war each individual European country feared its neighbor; but since the advent of Hitlerism and his plagues on the people, they have achieved a unity, one with another, which might never have been a complished otherwise. "The sabotage movement is very efficient," said the prelender to the Austrian-throne. The people take orders from higher officials not knowing from where they are coming, but carrying them out with swiftness and adeptness. Hitler Fears Own Power "Hitter is afraid of his own power," stated the Archduke. Hitler is reported to have said that as long as there is one country which still retains free press and racial tolerance there will be no chance for a lasting peace. Archduke Otto stated that "the time of small states is over once and for all. A formula must be evolved which combines the advantages of small with the power and unity of large states. This system must be federal." "The chances for a United States of Europe immediately after the war are exceptionally slim," according to Otto. "The hatred against Germany and Italy is too intense for other nations to allow them equal rights in a system of this kind." The Archduke's proposal is to form a group of federal systems which rather than be a United States would be based on geographical and historical conditions. From these systems an international union could be formed to insure rights to its members but also for the purpose of imposing heavy duties." Revenge Is Not Necessary "Revenge," Otto pointed out. "is not necessary. The people over there are tired of the war and desire a lasting peace. The only way to accomplish this is for Germany to be disarmed and punished justly. It is also exceedingly necessary for all military classes to be destroyed." RELIGIOUS WEEK---unable to obtain satisfaction from the Administration in setting up some workable plan of active student participation in the government, especially in all phases of the student government of the University, the present Council will resign en masse with no provision for its replacement and be done with the illusion of student government where no chance for student government exists.

Palmer, president of the Chicago Theological Seminary, will address an all-University convocation on "What Can Religion Do for Us Today?" Faculty Luncheon Thursday At a faculty luncheon Thursday noon in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building, Dr. Palmer will talk on "Three Ways of Meeting Trouble." All interested faculty members and students have been invited to attend this meeting. For the conclusion of Religious Emphasis week, an informal conference session, open to all students, will be conducted by Dr. Paimer on "Organizing One's Life Today." For those houses that wish it, speakers will be provided for talks after dinner, the committee stated. They said reservations for the banquet Tuesday and for the luncheon Thursday can be made through Ted Young, president of the Student Christian Federation. Very little deliberate "cutting" of physical conditioning classes has occurred so far this semester, according to Dr. A. J. Mix, chairman of the committee on exemption from physical conditioning. Few Cuts In Phys Ed Says Mix One hundred sixty-six exemptions have been granted on physical grounds so far, Dr. Mix said, and 40 students employed at manual labor have been exempted. According to the committee regulation, students employed at jobs which entail an amount of physical exertion equivalent to, or in excess of, that extended in the physical conditioning program are exempted. Such persons are required to report to the committee once a month, Dr. Mix reminded. Disciplinary action has been taken in only one case, he stated. Under the program, half-time faculty members, usually assistant instructors, are considered as students and must take the course. Full-time faculty members are exempted. M.S.C. STARTS---unable to obtain satisfaction from the Administration in setting up some workable plan of active student participation in the government, especially in all phases of the student government of the University, the present Council will resign en masse with no provision for its replacement and be done with the illusion of student government where no chance for student government exists. No statement regarding the Men's Student Council resolution could be obtained today from Chancellor Malott who is now in New Mexico attending an administrators' convention. He is expected back Friday evening, his secretary said today. (continued from page one) of Hill facilities for parties while forbidding them the use of downtown party places. The text of the resolution as passed by the Council follows: Whereas: Student vacations have arbitrarily and without any consultation with the student body been shortened almost to the vanishing point, and Be It Unanimously Resolved by the Men's Student Council of the University of Kansas that a committee of four members, with Bob White acting as chairman, be delegated to confer frankly and openly with the Chancellor to ascertain exactly what powers and scope the Men's Student Council possesses in the eyes of the Administration. Whereas: It is the feeling of the great majority of the students that not only have they been unwisely denied the rest that would make their studies more productive, but that this action as well as many others—taking from the students control over their activity fee; denying the students freedom of their press; violating the published bills of the Men's Student Council with reference to parking on the campus and varsity dances; failing to consult with the Joint Committee on Student Affairs, the mirror of student opinion; and taking from the student facilities for recreation on the "Hill" while forbidding them the use of downtown accommodations for organized parties—has been taken without any regard to the rights of student democracy, therefore Be It Further Resolved: That if this committee and the Council is Duties Assigned New Graduates Of Navy School The second graduating class of the Naval Machinists Mates Training School left today for assigned duties. The men will be divided, some assigned to further training and some assigned to duties on board ship. The men did not know where they were to be stationed, Lt. T. R. O'Hara, executive officer said. One hundred twenty-one men received graduation certificates from the school and the University Saturday morning in Hoch auditorium. Eighteen received ratings of Machinists Mate, second class; 19 received ratings of Fireman, first class; 37 of Fireman, second class; and the rest of the class were rated Fireman, third class. Honor man of the graduating class, chosen for his military bearing, class record, and attitude, was Gerald Austin from Flint, Michigan. Fred Montgomery, director of the training program for the trainees was principal speaker for the occasion. His farewell address concerned the personal interest he had in the men whose training he had supervised for four months. Lt. A. H. Buhl, commanding officer and Lt. T. R. O'Hara, executive officer addressed the class. Films of the U.S. Navy and the Fighting Free French Navy were shown. The movies, with sound, depicted the actual duties the men will experience on board ship. French Students Te Enact Drama Members of the French club will present a group of scenes from "Les Preciences Ridicules" by Moliere at a regular meeting of the club 4:30 p.m. Wednesday. Members taking part in the program will be Carol Gene English, Rosemary Jones, Gladys Kunkel, Dorothy Swope, and Richard Strawn. Following the program the club will practice French christmas carols in preparation for the Christmas meeting Dec. 16.

(continued from page one) Barr will pronounce the benediction. At the Thursday luncheon in the Memorial Union building Dr. Palmer will discuss "Three Ways of Meeting Trouble Today." The afternoon student conference session will begin at 4:30 in Fraser theater. At that time Dr. Palmer will speak on "Organizing One's Life Today." The morning convocation is sponsored jointly by the convocation committee of the University, and the Student Christian Federation, the sponsor of Religious Emphasis week. The day's activities will be concluded in the evening, when speakers will visit organized houses for discussions with students upon religious topics. The shortened class schedule will be followed on Thursday morning. Jayhawk Shelter... English Nursery Asks Second Year Support Plans for a campaign to raise money for another year's support of the Jayhawk Nursery, the University's contribution to the welfare of English children made homeless by the war, were discussed at a meeting last week of the executive committee for the nursery. The committee consists of Dr. A J. Mix, professor of botany, chairman; Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women; Henry Werner, adviser of men; Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College; and Prof. Domenico Gagliardo of the economics department. The nursery, located at Foxhill, near Rugby, England, was established with the aid of money recruited from a drive conducted on the Hill and in Lawrence last year. Its maintenance depends upon further contributions from this community. Faculty Follies May Be Revived Although no permanent plans to raise the necessary money were adopted at the meeting, the campaign will probably begin about December 7. Dr. Mix said. It is possible that the Faculty Follies will be staged again this year as a part of the drive, he stated. The committee received a letter recently from Edward Fuller, editorial secretary of the Save the Children Fund in London, requesting all the information available concerning the Jayhawk. The nursery is believed to be the only place in England where the Jayhawk exists. The information wil be sent as soon as possible, Dr. Mix has assured him.

Well another one of those Kansas football seasons has been lowered six feet under. The peals of Wiley's Cowboy band warming up for tonight's varsity-fresh game usher in Phog Allen and his showy cagers, ready to absorb Oklahoma, Kansas State, Bruce Drake, Henry Iba, Oklahoma A-M, Lt. Jack Gardner and the Big Six title. - * * * * SOONERS FAVORED OVER JAYHAWKERS Oklahoma and Kansas lead in pre-season Big Six ratings with the Sooners holding a strong edge. Bruce Drake lost no player of consequence and gained Allie Paine, regular guard of two seasons ago. Titanic Tucker and seven other lettermen return: Paul Heap, Paine, Ug Roberts, Tom Rousey, Dick McCurdy, Jim Martenvy and Dick Reich. Kansas lost one of the greatest players in conference history, Ralph Miller, and Marvin Sollenberger. Replacing these two with Sophomores Otto Schnellbacher and Bill Brill doesn't make the current Jayhawkers as strong as last season's team that opened with three new regulars. John Buescher, Charley Black and Ray Evans. So Titanic Tucker's Sooners seem a logical choice for Big Six champion. Kansas may end up with Oklahoma as co-champion again—that's as far as the crystal ball will go. This may happen because the Jayhawkers have one of the three greatest coaches and the greatest psychologist in the business. At any rate, the champion or co-champions will lose two or three games over the long season. $$ $$ FRESHMEN WANT TO PLAY TOO Prof. W. W. Davis, chairman of the Big Six faculty representatives who meet at Kansas City Dec. 11-12, reports that Kansas is in favor of making freshmen eligible for varsity sports. There's not much chance that any freshman will be around in September. Going through the motions of fresh practice seems to be a waste of time on the present basis. At the spring meeting, Nebraska, Missouri and Iowa State voted against freshman play. Prof. H. H. King of Kansas State will attend the Big Ten meeting at Chicago Dec. 7 as an observer of that conference's war retrenchment. Athletic directors meet at the same time as the Big Six representatives. They will huddle over the future of football and other sports. Sam Shirky, Missouri representative, might propose two-night stands to replace the home-and-home basketball schedule. $$ **** $$ WHAT GOES ON HERE? December is the month that will see changes made in the Kansas athletic setup. So here's one among many rumors, possibly planted by Kansas City alumni with an idle and perhaps slight monetary interest (they finance some footballers) in the Jayhawk grid situation. It suggested various gents for Kansas coaching jobs. Someone was to replace Gwinn Henry and Lt. Ted O'Leary, basketball great in the early thirties, was named as successor to Phog Allen. O'Leary refused the honor, declaring that the sizeable number of grid fans who blame Allen for Kansas' poor grid teams should spend more time studying Phog's methods and thereby discover a similar technique for winning football teams. The present goings-on are preliminary skirmishes that will end in abolishing or curtailing football and other sports, the release of Vic Hurt and some other change in the status of Gwinn Henry, if means can be found to cancel the Old Man's $7,000 contract that Chancellor Deane W. Malott and the Athletic board are concerned with the low finances of the athletic treasury. Some decisions will be made on the results of the faculty meeting at K. C., findings of the Athletic board early next week, influential alumni, the University budget committee and backroom sessions of those concerned. Game-Dance Expected To Be Double Magnet Starting lineups: Varsity Pos. Frosh Black F Dewell Schmellbacher F Churchill Buescher C Burt Evans G Nicollet Brill G Lear Coach Phog Allen sends his Big Six co-champion Jayhawkers against the freshman cagers at 7:30 tonight at Hoch auditorium in a preliminary work-out before the big circuit opening against the Gardner Naval Clippers at Kansas City Saturday. Sideshow attraction will be a halftime dance to the music of Russell Wiley's Cowboy band. Back in action go John Buescher, Ray Evans and Charlie Black, aided by newcomers Otto Schnellbacher and Bill Brill. Lettermen Paul Turner and Jack Ballard are two other Allen mainstays who will carry the major Kansas burden this season. Co-coaches Marvin Sollenberger and Dick Miller have a green team that is long on ability and short on co-ordination. Big John Dewell, top prep cager in Kansas last season, leads the average-sized freshmen. In practice last night the fresh were scoring freely. Dr. Allen will substitute freely in preparation for the Gardner Clipper game. Lettermen Max Kissell Don Blair, Bloch Fitzpatrick, George Dick and Sophomores Larry McSpadden and Armand Dixon and other new men are slated for action Elmer Schaake and Milt Allen, members of championship teams of earlier years, will make the game an all-family affair as referees. Kansas does not play at home again until Jan. 4, against the Clippers. A recent survey of Iowa State lettermen in the service reveals that 90 per cent of them are officers and more than half of the remaining 10 per cent are now at officer training schools. Ninety Per Cent are Officers IM Schedule Cut BY PAUL BROWNLEE A lack of adequate court and shower facilities for intramural basketball has caused Director Henry Shenk to reduce the schedule. The Naval Training School and physical conditioning classes have taken over Robinson gymnasium and Hoch auditorium during the time that in the past has been allotted to intramural basketball. "There will be only divisions in Class A, no Class C basketball and Class B will take the form of an elimination tour- Corbin Hall Defends Title In Cage Race By MARY MORRILL Women's intramural basketball season will open tonight with eight teams seeing action between 9 and 10:30 o'clock at Robinson gymnasium as Corbin hall defends its crown. Called at nine are games between the ETC's and the Co-ops and Kappa Alpha Theta and Delta Gamma. At 9:40 the courts will be vacated to make way for contesting IWW and IND teams and for Pi Beta Phi and Gamma Phi Beta players. Four more games will be played Wednesday evening completing the opening round of the tournament. The schedule for these contests: 9—Corbin hall vs. Miller hall and Watkins hall vs. Alpha Delta Pi; 9:40—Kappa Kappa Gamma vs. Sigma Kappa and Chi Omega vs. Alpha Chi Omega. Corbin hall is defending the women's basketball championship after nosing IWW out of top position in a close final battle of last year's tournament. Built around two returning players, Mildred Wells, forward, and Phyllis Struble, guard, the Corbin team should stand a fair chance of making a successful defensive stand. Competition, however, promises to be stiff. On the IWW team this year are Lavon Jacobson, forward, and Frances Davidson, guard, both of whom figured greatly in battling IWW's way to second place last winter. Returning to the Theta line-up after placing third in '41 are Peggy Davis, Dorothy Fizzell, and Peggy Roberts. Judging from their practices Kappa Kappa Gamma will have an exceptionally strong team this season also. Margaret Butler and Peggy Ballard, returning players, and Sue Elliott, a pledge who was spotted during volleyball season will high light the lineup.

Freshman and varsity basketball squads also must have the use of the gyms sometime during the day and there are also varsity basketball games to be played in Hoch. This lack of court space has been the headache of the department of physical education all year and the present plan seems to be the only means by which intramural basketball can be played at all. "There will be only divisions in Class A, no Class C basketball and Class B will take the form of an elimination tournament," Henry Shenk, intramural director, said today. An organization will be allowed to enter two teams in the intramural program and if it enters only one team it will play in Class A. Division winners in Class A will compete in a playoff to determine the class A champion et the end of the season.

Kansas intramural writer, will be named in Thursday's Kansan. The Beta's and the Phi Pi's will unleash everything they have up their sleeves in the eleven-man intramural football final this afternoon. The favored Beta's qualified for the final by downing the Phi Gam's 6 to 0 last week. The Vance Hall to Bill Mowery combination that has clicked for the Beta's all season paid off again in the fourth quarter against the Phi Gam's. Phi Psi's defeated Sigma Chi's in their semi-final game, 10 to 0. Bill Effis scored the touchdown and Bill Chestnut kicked the extra point and field goal for the Phi Psi's. Dick Miller turned in a good game for the Phi Psi's along with Dorman O'Leary and Max Kissell. The game this afternoon will bring together two teams with the same razzle dazzle of play, and this feat alone points to a big score with a victory for the Phi Psi's hardly classed as an upset. Traveling ★★★ Students Are Aisle-Standers For the most part, the young vigorous students stood, or sat on suitcases in the middle of aisles.

The problem of getting on and off trains has increased. It is amusing to see the enormous crowd of people jamming through one small entrance in any station at one time. Even information is at a premium. The Union station in Kansas City is large but hardly able to cope with the double line at the information window. No doubt you have discovered a shortage of informants. Some students are not complaining even if they can't get their magazine or murder story read on the way to their destination, they can get acquainted with so many other fellow sufferers. They can tell them how much worse this problem will be at Christmas. Blanks Whip Delta Chi; Six-Man All-Stars Named First Team Pos.

The coed is a legume individual who apple-polishes her way through school, and whose principal reason for attending an institution is to collect the fraternity pins of the members of the stronger sex. Neither student is aware that there is a war going on, and neither respects the heroes of former conflicts. Instead they spend their time jitterbugging, parking, and in "living cosily in a world of fantasy far removed from the harsh realities of the world around them." All this, according to the November 23 issue of Life magazine, is the typical American college campus. Ye Gods! The writer who dreamed up that bundle of misconceptions must have been dipping deeply into the weed. Perhaps he never went to college—or perhaps he was a member of that small minority of "playboys" who are found everywhere, be it in the services, in the defense plants, or in the schools. There are pictures plenty in Life of a posed coed apple-polishing, of a jitterbugging duo, of a student rushing into class later, and of the "campus bigshot." But where are the pictures of medical students studying until 3 and 4 a.m., of ROTC units drilling, of coeds selling defense stamps, of physical conditioning classes sweating on the obstacle courses, of serious students in war courses working day and night upon their books with little thought of social activities? These are the more typical activities at an American university, today. In publishing the misleading photographs (taken on the campus of the University of Indiana), the magazine has hurt itself far more than it has injured the college students of the nation. Always a popular magazine on any campus, its reputation among students will sink to a new low. Many university readers who scan its pages in the future will do so with tongue in cheek. As for the students themselves, they can best expose the many fallacies in the article by rolling up their sleeves and tackling their jobs harder than ever. They can answer fallacious words with action which will prove that college students are seriously preparing themselves to meet the urgent needs of the country. Then it will be clear to the American public that the editors of Life magazine, not university students, are the "adolescent" ones. 0. Answered Louis Fischer, when queried during an address as to when the war will end: "The war will end on October 17, 1943, at 4:30 p.m., just in time for cocktails." Disinterest in Lectures Creats Bad Impressions Archduke Otto, pretender to the throne of Austria, spoke at Hoch auditorium, and only a small audience in the spacious building heard the brilliant orator—a man hated, but respected, by Herr Hitler himself—discuss important issues with the authority of a man who has been at the scene of action. Ernesto Montenegro, learned South American journalist, lectured in Fraser theater upon the culture of our southern neighbors-countries which each day assume greater importance in the international picture. Barely a halfhundred persons were present to hear him speak. Two men who could tell the University of Kansas students of important happenings in the outside world, and the students were not interested. The University had gone to considerable expense to bring here men capable of making worthwhile interpretations of the muddled world picture. Students were offered the opportunity to hear these speakers with no additional cost other than their activity fees, but they didn't bother to attend. Is it any wonder that many persons read into every action of an American university student a disinterest in the events outside his own small college world. It is any wonder that when the students of this University asked an extension of their Christmas vacation period, many persons saw only their immediate selfish gains and thought those the only reasons for their request? Is it any wonder a recent issue of a nationally distributed magazine depicted college life as a world of dreams? Any person who has associated with Kansas University men and women knows of their interest in world events. People with less contact with the students, however, must make their judgments from cold figures figures which show that hundreds of students paid cash to dance to a name band, while a handful of students were willing to sacrifice their time and the energy required to walk to Hoch auditorium to hear a lecture by a famous man.

The words were written by Mary Louise Dillenbach of Corbin hall. "We're dreaming of a K. U. Christmas Which ain't so rosy—you might know. Where there ain't no Santy And the 'cheer' is scanty And drizzle takes the place of snow. Such nightmares of a K. U. Christmas Grow as the fatal day grows nigh, May you not feel pensive and sigh As we bid our Yuletide fun goodbye." ***** The cast practicing for the play "This Thing Called Love," are a bit apprehensive about the furniture props. Harlan decided that the real furniture had better be obtained quickly before the cast lands in the hospital with broken bones. Last night during rehearsals, Harlan Cope, Battenfeld, stumbled over part of a desk which was representing a footstool and nearly landed on his face. Tom Scott Cadden, Dean Sims, Frank Sims, and Antonio Lulli spent a weekend in Des Moines some time ago visiting a friend of Lulli's. The boys stayed at a hotel and were having a fine time until Dean Sims called Luli's room and disguised his voice. "This is the police," said Sims, "We're just checking. Do you mind if we come up?" Lulli hung up quickly and ran into the bedroom where Frank Sims was sleeping. "The polecee! They are coming here! Queeck, we must hide the bottle!" The Phi Psi house received a telegram the next day from these brothers which read, "Starting back.

NO DIFFERENCE What They Were Saying ★★★ ★★★ One War Ago One war ago they were saying just about the same things. The German and English high officials were quibbling; Kaiser Wilhelm II was insisting, "Remember that the German people are the chosen of God;" while King George V said: "We are fighting for a worthy purpose, and shall not lay down our arms until that purpose has been achieved." Theodore Roosevelt put in his two cents: "We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language." The WAACS and WAVES are products of the present war, but they really began back in World War I when Elinor Glyn said: "English women in every class have shown that Woman is capable of as glorious a courage, as steady a devotion, and as patriotic a sense of duty as Man."

Rarely is anything reported correctly; and the opinions expressed are petty grievances which apply to a minute few on this campus; and the ideas are often so infantile as to resemble those contained in a kindergarten news sheet. These things I can pass over because of the Kansan being what it is. But when the Kansan deliberately and forcefully goes out of its way to get students to express views and take issues on certain subjects, it is going too far! Often these views will be regretted by the persons making them after ten minutes—but in the meantime, the Kansan has used them to fill up space, and there they remain till death we do part. I am referring to the opinions expressed by students that favor longer Christmas vacations. How many of them have brothers fighting on foreign shores? . . . How many of them have brothers that are in Jap prison camps? What if we should lose the war, how many of these "Courageous Defenders of Longer Vacations" would be proud of their former daring statements? I have a brother in New Guinea and it saddens me to no end to get letters from him saying, "Well my first wedding anniversary has come and gone. All Adelma and I could do was to send and exchange cablegrams, which isn't such a hot way to spend one first wedding anniversary. Several weeks before I left last winter, Adelma and I went skating several times at Lynn, Mass. In below zero temperatures, and only six weeks later I was sweltering crossing the equator. Well the only hope that I have is that some day the world will come to its senses." Let K. U. take the initiative and adopt the Motto, "VICTORY THEN VACATION!" What do you think?

BUCHELE Arts in Wartime Similiar World War II poetry cannot be judged for years hence, but three poems stand out from the melee: John McCrae's "In Flander's fields the popies blow ..." Alan Seeger's "I have a rendezvous with Death," and Rupert Brooke's "If I should die, think only this of me; . . ." Quotable one-liners to come out of World War I and proving of great value to quiz programs are "Lafayette, we are here" attributed to General Pershing; Marshal Petain's "They shall not pass"; Calvin Coolidge's great cry "Have faith in Massachusetts"; and Lloyd George's "The last hundred million pounds will win the war." The 1914 version of "Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition" or "He Wears a Pair of Silver Wings" was George M. Cohan's "Over There," Mrs. Ford's "Keep the Home Fires Burning." or "My Buddy." As yet there has been no equivalent to the "Mademoiselle from Armentiers." But a successor is expected to turn up any day now. Twenty-eight years doesn't seem to have made much difference.

That the relative size of glands determines life was illustrated by the second speaker, A. B. Gausz, assistant instructor of pharmacy. He explained by using the lion and the alligator as examples. The two weigh the same, but the lion has large glands and the alligator small glands. The larger glands of the lion make him a high-powered animal. The alligator in contrast has relatively low power. The history and cure of syphilis was discussed by the third speaker, Allen Sebaugh, senior in the School of Pharmacy.

High School Goes to College War Extends Courses The impending draft of 18- and 19-year-old boys, a serious shortage of high school teachers, and the wartime need for new courses in mathematics and science are the causes for correspondence courses now available to high school students through the University extension division. "Our war effort has developed an increased consciousness of the need for training in pre-flight aeronautics, physics, chemistry, advanced algebra, trigonometry, foreign languages and English composition," said Gerald Pearson, field organizer of the extension division. The extension instructor is responsible for the teaching and grading of papers and their evaluation. This instructor is usually a University faculty member. The operation of the plan is comparatively simple. The superintendent or principal of the high school provides for the enrollment of students, and sets aside a period in the regular daily schedule for the correspondence work. A teacher acts as supervisor over the 15 or 20 students in the room who may be taking four or five different subjects. This teacher need not have a specialized knowledge of the subjects studied, but merely checks each student to see that lesson instructions are followed. Unfortunately, many of these subjects which are now bidding for an enlarged place in the high school curricula are the ones for which a serious shortage of teachers exists. Consequently, the extension division, through its bureau of correspondence, has planned this new program. Courses are being offered in preflight aeronautics, commercial arts, mathematics, mechanical drawing, chemistry and physics, foreign language, English, and social sciences. "Music must change over" was the theme of Dr. Otto Miessner's talk to the members of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia at their first dinner meeting of the year last week in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building. Dr. Miessner, professor of education and public school music, reported to the fraternity concerning a recent national convention of music educators held in Chicago. At this meeting, said Dr. Miessner, the government chairman of the movement to change school curriculum for the furthering of the war effort conferred with these leaders. Dr. Miessner expressed the opinion that there was uncertainty to what would happen, but he pointed out that music educators must join in the movement toward increased production along the line of wartime needs.

The show, which has formerly featured only student talent, had a touch of professionalism this year, because several of the Harding field riders have appeared in wild west shows. The student-soldier rodeo featured steer riding, bronc and mule riding, calf scramble, wild-cow milking and musical chair contests. The musical chair contest is a competition in which coeds riding to the music of the L.S.U. band leap from their horses and race for seats.

BUY WAR STAMPS ... 'South American Schools Are Political--Minded' "Where students in the universities of the United States are sports-minded, students in South American colleges are political-minded," Ernesto Montenegro, South American journalist speaking Friday afternoon at Fraser theater, told a small crowd of students and faculty members. Montenegro explained the South American interest in politics as being due to the location of universities in the center of cities, so that students are constantly in direct contact with civilians and civic problems. Instructors, he declared, are often dismayed by the inadequacies of the present educational system, and in their desire for change, swing toward the left, and indoctrinate their students with those principles. The journalist described recent attempts to remove the universities from political scenes. "They are breaking the schools into pieces," he declared. "A portion of the university—such as the medical school—may be in one part of the city, while the law buildings are clear on the other side of town. Thus there is no 'alma mater' spirit in the South American institutions of higher learning," he said. French Influence Strong Montenegro stressed the influence of Paris upon South American culture. American writers known in South America have primarily reached that continent through French translations of their work, he said. The writer named as american authors popular in Latin America Longfellow, Poe, Hawthorne, Lewis, Steinbeck, Hemingway, and Frank. "In South American literature the importance is not on what you say, but how you say it." Montenegro declared. "The Latin American writer cannot hope to make his living merely from his writing, but must also teach for a living. Poverty prevents sufficient patronization to make feasible writing as a singular profession." According to the speaker, the general run of South American books, despite an inexpensive price, will sell only approximately 5,000 copies. Friday evening Montenegro addressed members of the University Club in the University Club room of the Memorial Union building on "The March of Democracy in Latin America." Friday morning he addressed journalism classes in the Journalism building. Dramatic Workshop To Present "This Thing Called Love" The Dramatic Workshop's three-act play, "This Thing Called Love," by Edwin Burke, will be presented in Fraser theater Dec. 15 and 16. The play is being produced by an all-student management, under the direction of Edith Ann Fleming and Bill Kelly, college seniors. Miss Alvaraz, played by Betty Rowton, college senior, and Normie DeWitt, by Danny Bachmann, college sophomore, are the other woman and man in this strange marriage. The play climaxes when DeWitt, quite drunk, threatens to shoot Collins. The play deals with two persons, Ann Marvin and Tice Collins, played by Edith Arm Fleming and Bill Kelly, who are in love but dislike the prospect of marrying because of the unhappiness and quarrels that seem to be a part of marriage. They finally agree to get married on a strictly business-like basis. Naturally, many humorous situations occur as a result. Dolly Garrett, played by Ethel Mary Schwartz, college junior, amuses the audience as the garrulous and confused wife of Fred Garrett, played by Bob Hutchinson, college sophomore. is something we all seek to attain.

Don Pomeroy, member of the organization, said this morning. Last year the service fraternity raised money for needy Lawrence families at Christmas time by sponsoring a penny pitch project in the center of Frank Strong hall. A bucket was suspended below the balcony and students exhibited their skill in hitting it by tossing spare pennies. NOW Since Jack Smith, president of the fraternity, who was a sophomore in the school of engineering, has left school, members of the fraternity will probably elect a new president at the meeting, Pomeroy said.

She has, says Associated Press, "a lyric voice of good capacities. And Lakme' is one of the most difficult operas in existence." Jacques Gerard; French-Canadian tenor, also made his debut last night. Mrs. Wilkins left for New York City Nov. 11. While she was there, she called on Wilfred Pellitier, who had heard her sing last year when he was scouting talent for the Metropolitan auditions of the air. He is now director of "Lakme" and when she called, he told her that he needed an understudy for Lily Pons. It all came about this way: Although she was unfamiliar with most of the opera she learned the score in exactly a week, and won the place as Miss Pons' understudy. When Miss Pons was taken ill with a cold. Mrs. Wilkins took her place at rehearsal Monday night. At 6 o'clock Tuesday evening she was told that she would sing the title role. Mrs. Wilkins studied music in Paris and Milan, and appeared on the stage of Italian opera before the war. In this country she has sung in operetts with the St. Louis Opera company. She recently sang the famous aria "The Bell Song," from "Lakme" in a recital here. Cosmetic Drive ★★★ Can Compacts "Lipstick for defense" is part of the scrap drive sponsored by Epsilon Sigma Alpha, Lawrence business women's sorority. Members have set up a box on the main desk in the Memorial Union building with a sign above reading, "Empty Your Purse Campaign." In the box are the remnants of feminine beauty aids—lipstick tubes, to which traces of red still cling, dented and enamel chipped compacts, battered cigarette cases, and time-worn rouge boxes. A few scrappers took the caption seriously, and pencils and pennies were contributed. New lipsticks are being encased in plastic and glass containers, and it has become almost unpatriotic to use a metal tube. Women now have a chance to throw out a litter of old make-up containers, and do it for the war effort. The motto of the drive might well be, "Caa that compact, and keep 'em shining." Makes Met Debut THE MONARCH Marie Wilkins Seven Are Initiated To Phi Beta Kappa The seven newly elected members of Phi Beta Kappa, national scholastic honor society, will be initiated at the annual fall meeting and initiation of the organization in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union at 5 o'clock this afternoon.

The initiation service will be preceded by a tea in the English room at 4 o'clock for all old members of Phi Beta Kappa and for those who will be initiated this afternoon. Following the initiation service, A. T. Walker, professor of Latin and Greek, will give a paper on "Lucietius."

Student Trial To Begin Monday In Green Hall Capt. W. A. Barrett, of the U. S. Army Air Corps, who headed the enlistment board for recruits in the air corps on the campus last week, is expected to be at Watkins Hospital again Friday, to complete enlistments for those whose papers were not in order last week but have since completed the preliminary requirements. While no direct word has been received from Capt. Barrett since he was here, his plans were to return Friday, and Dr. Laurence Woodruff, registrar and coordinator for students of military information, assumes that he will be here tomorrow. Mrs. Ara Bartholomew (Cot, an accident policy, which she cl indemnity for a 104 weeks illness as a result of being scalded by escaping steam from a locomotive in a railway accident which occurred between Eudora and De Soto and which resulted, finally, in his death. The deceased had taken out compensation insurance with the company. Does Not Dispute Injury One of the two trials docketed this year for the University School of Law will be held Monday afternoon in the courtroom of Green hall. Judge P. W. Viesselman will preside. The case is Ara Bartholomew vs. Continental Casualty Company. Curtis Burton and Robert Miller are attorneys for the plaintiff; and J.B. Malone and Charles Case represent the defendant. Jay Janes And ISA Sell TB Seals "Although all of the money collected for the tuberculosis drive has not been turned in, the amount now totals between $70 and $75," Evelyn Nielsen, College senior who is in charge of the drive, announced last night. The ISA will sell the tuberculosis stamps from tables at its dance Wednesday night. The amount of bonds or stamps bought by the houses will be received by mail by Miss Nielsen the latter part of the week. The money which the organizers of the drive have counted so far was turned in by the Jay Janes. Florence Harris. college junior, sold the most stamps, a total of 815. Last Monday and Tuesday, Jay James sold penny stamps on the campus. Boxes for pennies were placed in the Union building. Letters were mailed to organized and semi-organized houses, and fraternities were contacted by a representative. "The total, so far, is much less than I had expected. The Navy school also bought part of the stamps sold on the Campus. I had hoped to sell more stamps on the Hill, but undoubtedly there is a reason why the students didn't respond better," Evelyn Nielsen explained. Mrs. Ara Bartholomew (Comora MacGregor) is suing under accident policy, which she claims entitled her husband to an 101 weeks ill-* The defendant does not dispute the injury but claims that the engineer unnecessarily exposed him- (continued to page two) Religion Is Basis For Peace-Palmer ★ ★ ★ THE CHAMPION OF TECHNOLOGY IN THE CITY OF BROADWAY Dr. Albert Palmer The 10th annual debate tournament with Texas will begin Sunday with Dick Royer. College sophomore, and Jim Gillie, business senior, representing the University, Prof E. C. Buehler, coach of the debaters announced todav. "This trip is an annual affair of long standing. Texas is our main rival in debate. What Missouri is to us in football, Texas is to us in forensics," pointed out Professor Buehler. KU To Take Part In Texas Debate Gillie and Royer will participate in eight debates. The two students will debate Monday before a high school audience at Denison, Texas. The following day, they will debate before a junior college and high school assembly of approximately a thousand persons at Temple, Texas. From there Gillie and Royer will go to Austin, Texas and debate before students. A broadcast will be made the following afternoon, at San Antonio. The debaters will return to Austin and debate four rounds in the tournament which will be held Friday and Saturday Dec. 11 and 12. The question to be debated is, "Resolved: That the Allied Nations should form a federation." Among the colleges participating in the tournament are: Wichita University, Southern Methodist Bayton University, State College of Louisiana, Rice University, University of Texas, and Texas Christian College. Professor Buehler did not know definitely what other colleges would be represented. "Our debate team is the only one to do debating outside of the tournament. Last year, we won seven out of eight debates, but two years ago Texas beat us. Over the 10 year period, we have been on the top side. "We are nervous invalids on the shores of the great Vesuvius of world revolution." Dr. Alfred Palmer, president of Chicago Theological Seminary, told an all-University convocation this morning. Dr. Palmer's address was one of the highlights of this last day of Religious Emphasis week, which began Tuesday and is sponsored every year by the Student Christian Federation. Under his topic, "What Can Religion Do for Us Today," Dr. Palmer offered four elements that religion can give to a world living in such difficulty and peril as this present one: faith, hope, love, and worship. "Hatred Will Lose Peace" That there is orderliness in the universe, that the eternal progress of the world goes on, and that humanity is also a part of that cosmic order is a fundamental belief of the Christian religion, Dr. Palmer asserted. He said that the trouble now is in international relations; "there, I have faith to believe that we will find our way out." Religion offers a stabilizing basis of great faith in the universe on which a man can build and receive courage to go on. Describing the two kinds of tragedy—the tragedy of fatalism and the tragedy of character weakness—Dr. Palmer insisted that the latter tragedy as exemplified by Shakespeare's plays, the failure of a good man, is the tragedy of today. For, one can come from a Shakespearean tragedy with a strong resolution not to err as Pearl Harbeor $ ... $ ... $ (continued to page two) A "Pearl Harbor" anniversary class of college graduates will be enlisted in the V-7 naval program. it was announced here yesterday by Lt. W. P. Ewing of the naval recruiting enlistment board which was in Watkins Memorial hospital yesterday. Only college or university graduates under 28 years old may enlist in the program, according to Lieutenant Ewing. They may be either married or unmarried. The place of enlistment is the Office of Naval Officer Procurement in the Finance building in Kansas City, Mo. The members of the class will go into training immediately Lieutenant Ewing said.

PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1942 After 17 Years Annual Speech Contest Succumbs To New Era War Alters Theme For the first time during the 17 years of its organization the annual fall Campus Problem Speakers contest will be changed in theme, E. C. Buehler, professor of speech, has stated, Professor Buehler organized the contest 17 years ago when he first came to the University. Because of the present concentration on the war effort, the usual questions concerning campus problems will be changed to those concerning the students and the University in meeting the war effort. Problems and solutions to the questions will be included in the speeches. "A premium will be placed on clear and courageous thinking concerning how students and universities may help to win the war, or build a better world after the war is passed." Professor Buehler explained. Cash awards totaling $20 will be presented to the three winning speakers at the final contest. Dec. 16, in Fraser theater. Participants in the tryouts must speak four minutes on some chosen topic. Eight students will be chosen from the tryouts by judges to speak eight minutes at the final contest. "The students may choose any subject which they think colleges and universities could use in meeting the war effort. Perhaps, such subjects as students continuing in school or enlisting in the armed forces, war courses, or leadership by the colleges after the war," Professor Buehler hinted. Three or four students from the final group may be chosen to speak to the Civic Club, and be used on the Student Speakers bureau. Professor Buehler hinted. Miss Margaret Anderson and Pro- fessor Buehler have asked that all students interested in trying out for this contest see them in room 5, Green hall, on or before Dec. 9. The dates, title, and distribution of the awards for the speakers contest have been chosen. Professor Buehler announced last night (Wednesday). "Speaking for Victory" is the title. Tryouts will be held December 16, the date originally chosen for the final contest. The contest date has been changed to the night of December 21. A sum of $10 will be given for first prize. $7 for second prize, and $3 for the third prize.

Chandler Predicts A Teacher Shortage By End of Semester An increasing demand for teachers over the already apparent shortage was predicted yesterday by H. E. Chandler of the teachers' appointment bureau. Teachers continue to be drafted into the service of their country and continue to join the forces of war workers. Mr. Chandler also predicts that a large number of women teachers will be married during the Christmas vacation. This will increase the existing teacher shortage. Mr. Chandler also announced three new teacher appointments. Don Pence, who received his master of arts degree from the University in 1942, has a position as supervisor of music in the city schools of Sherman, Texas. Clayton Krehbiel, who was graduated with a bachelor of music education in 1942, is teaching instrumental music in the high school at Oberlin, Kan. Mary E. McKinney, a graduate of 1921 with a master of arts degree, is now teaching English and Latin in the high school in Carey, Ohio. STUDENT TRIAL---- tinued from page one) (continued from page one) self to danger; and, under the terms of the policy, the one who is injured can only recover one-fourth of his damages if he unnecessarily subjects himself to danger. The defense attorneys will try to prove that the engineer was injured when he was acting contrary to orders. The defendant also claims that Bartholomew failed to give notice of the injury within 15 days after the accident, and failed to furnish details of the injury within 30 days. They further claim that Bartholomew, on receipt of $230 in full settlement, executed a release of liability, while the plaintiff claims that Bartholomew was mentally incompetent to execute such release. He died in a hospital for the insane; this is admitted by the defense. Barton Is Claim Agent Bob Barton, first year law student, will act as I. R. Chase, claim agent for the insurance company. The jury of six will be chosen by lot among members of the freshman class, who are required to appear for filing. The facts in this case are not imaginary, but are based upon a case actually tried in a district court in this state about 25 years ago. These practice trials have been conducted as part of the classwork of the School of Law for over 40 years. Each student, before receiving his degree, is required to have participated in one trial during his second year, without dispute or jury decision, and one in his senior year involving dispute and a jury. In former years as many as ten trials have been held during the year, but, because of the decrease in enrollment, only two trials will be held this year. The second will be held sometime next semester. LAWRENCE Business College Lawrence, Kansas. Visitors welcome School at 7th & Louisiana St. Drama Society Will Stress Radio Work Pi Epsilon Alpha, honorary drama society, decided to stress radio work at a recent meeting called to plan the year's program. Members chose radio work, since it will not conflict with the projects of the Dramatic Workshop. This society, or the National Collegiate Players, is comprised of speech and drama majors. Points may be gained toward membership this year by work on sound effects, as well as by backstage work. Other plans for the coming year include the organization of a study group on drama and choral reading. No definite committees have yet been appointed. Complete phonographic recordings are made of significant events at Hamilton College, and the resulting records are kept on file for use whenever they may be needed. One recent addition to the collection covers a special war convocation held in the chapel three days after Pearl Harbor, Commencement exercises, important lectures, special musical and dramatic events are similarly preserved. Hamilton College Records Year's Significant Events RELIGION IS BASIS--- (continued from page one) greatest hope of humanity is that the human race can learn by its mistakes," said Dr. Palmer. The churches now are taking great part in the planning of a post-war world on the basis of just and durable peace. "I wonder if hatred is necessary for the fighting of a war?" Dr. Palmer asked. Religion must keep love and tenderness alive in the heart of man, he said. "Hatred will lose the peace," and with just another "armistice," we shall have continued wars. He declared that the only way to deal effectively and safely with enemies is to make them our friends. Dean Lawson. Ted Young Speak Underlying the three-faith, hope, love—is worship, that "technique of living in tune with the peace of the infinite. These are things which I believe," Dr. Palmer concluded. The invocation was made by Rev. C. Fosberg Hughes of the Plymouth Congregational church, after which the University a cappella choir, under Dean M. Swarthout, sang the anthem, "O Be Joyful, All Ye Lands," (Gretcheninoff). Dean Paul B. Lawson made a comment about the importance of religion at this time, and introduced Ted Young, president of Student Christian Federation. Young explained the purpose of Religious Emphasis week to re-emphasize religion's meaning to students, and presented Dr. Palmer. Benediction was pronounced by the Rev. Harold G. Barr, of the First Christian church. BUY WAR STAMPS . . . Give Books This Christmas No other gift will add more enjoyment to the Holiday Season.

Pharmacy Club A four-reel color film, "Globulin Modified Antitoxins" was shown the Pharmacy club Friday. J. Allen Reese, dean of the school of Pharmacy, introduced the film by explaining that toxin is given to prevent disease. Antitoxin is given to counteract the disease once taken. The patient, of course, will have the disease but not nearly so hard. Professor Reese said that dipteria antitoxin was the first antitoxin of any consequence to be prepared. It was discovered in 1889. The film showed the injecting of germs into the blood stream of horses. It demonstrated extracting the blood by cutting a vein. The different preparations that the blood goes through were pictured. Tests of guinea pigs were included. Prussian Manpower Problem There is a manpower problem in Germany with tragic overtues.

Tom Lillard caught a pass from Hall and scored the extra point. HOW STRONG ARE JAYHAWKS? K. U.'s basketball five showed signs of "latent potentiality" against the frosh, as the cultured Easterner seeing his first Jayhawk basketball game phrased it. That is about the best that can be said of Tuesday's game. Of course, the game was only an opening warmup and didn't carry any high stakes like a Big Six or Oklahoma Aggle game. It deserves to be judged from that standpoint. But two serious chips in armor appeared: the fast break looked like a slow freight and strong reserve strength was lacking. One strength: defense. The smooth fast break exhibited by Kansas fast season when Ralph Miller sparkled probably will not be approached until later in the season, if then. Sophomores Otto Schnellbacher and Bill Brill may not come around until a few games have been lost in December. Also, Ray Evans, Paul Turner and Schnellbacher just checked in football togs. "Football muscles" sometime require a month to eliminate. Last season Coach Phog Allen had the strongest reserves in the Big Six in T. P. Hunter, Vance Hall, Bob Johnson, Hutch Walker, Jack Ballard, and Turner. Whenever the first five hit a snag, Phog sent in one of these six to pep the Jayhawks. Reserve strength won several games for Kansas. Remember Hunter's sharpshooting and rebound work and Turner's last-minute basket that tied the K-State game and enabled Kansas to win in overtime? This season opens with only two proven Kansas reserves. Two of these four men, Turner, Brill, Ballard and Schnellbacher, will be bolstered by the other pair on the bench. Max Kissell, Harold McSpadden, Bill Short and Bob Fitzpatrick do not compare with last year's second line. The "transitional man-for-man defense with a zone principle" appears as strong as ever. Black and Brill were controlling the ball off the backboard. PHOG WORRIES MOST ABOUT THESE TWO If you talk to Dr. Allen you can get the impression that, for personal reasons he would rather whip Lt. Jack Gardner and Bruce Drake than any other coaches. Remember the slugging verbal battle Phog Allen and Drake had in Hoch last January over Gerald Tucker and other assorted Oklahoma misdeeds? Gardner is believed to have turned over his scout reports on Kansas to Frosty Cox of Colorado before the NCAA western playoffs last March. ***** JABBERWOCK One disgruntled grid fan declares that "if part of the topheavy salaries paid the football coaches had been subtracted for 'buying' players, Kansas might have won two or three more games." . .

Fresh from a 32-19 setback by Oklahoma A. & M, on the invineble Stillwater court, the all-American manned Gardner Naval Clippers still rank evenly with a slow-starting Kansas cage five whom they meet on the "home court" at Kansas City Saturday night. Aggies Defeat Gardner Lt. Jack Gardner, former K-State coach who has never whipped the Jayhawks, has height and experience on his side this time. This edge plus the ragged appearance of Kansas so far gives Gardner a good chance of heating Coach F. C. Allen for the first time. Coach Allen, who says, "I think we can beat them." hasn't had much time to polish the play of Ray Evans, Otto Schnellbacher, and Paul Turner, just off the football field. Tickets for the Kansas-Gardner game are being sold at 75 cents and a dollar at the Athletic office in Robinson gymnasium. Students can also get Kansas home game season tickets for $1.12 at the office. Gardner has fashioned his cagers into a working unit after more than a month's practice. Clipper all-Americans are Grady Lewis and Don Lockard, formerly with Chuck Hyatt's champion Bartlesville Oilers, and Bill Menke, who dealt so much misery when Indiana overwhelmed Kansas in the 1940 NCAA finals at Kansas City and as a member of the Great Lakes outfit that handed the Jayhawkers one of their five defeats last season.

The contest, in which the varsity gained an early lead and held it throughout, was a dull one, and resembled in no way the tilt of two years back when the varsity copped a victory by a two-point margin. The only excitement came a few minutes after the beginning of the second half, when Charlie Black displayed his old form by putting one in from under the basket. The varsity scored again as Paul Turner tipped in a pass from Ray Evans. Then Al Nicoleo scored for the frosh, after which Don Burt tallied more freshman points with a long shot. John Buescher sank one for the varsity, and Black accidentally tipped in a freshman basket as the activity ended. Freshman standouts were John Dewell, all-Ark valley and all-state center at Newton last year, who turned in a good game at a forward post and Al Nicolet and Don Burt, who led the attack with 10 points. Burt had the crowd buzzing over his long shots. After his varsity five had built up an early lead, Dr. F. C. Allen substituted freely in search of the reserve power that his squad is noticeably lacking this year. John Short, outstanding performer on the second team, put in the contest, and Bob Fitzpatrick, who scored six points, played well.

Miss Rush Hoover said today that all first round matches must be completed in time for second round play tomorrow. Corbin, IWW Theta's Win In First Round Corbin, IWW and Kappa Alpha Theta proved their strength in the first round of the women's intramural basketball tournament completed last night. Corbin, with four of last year's winning team still playing, won easily over Miller hall, 36-6. Mildred Wells scored 14 of Corbin's 36 points. In a rough and tumble game the Chi Omega's defeated the Alpha Chi Omega's 13-6. At the half of the Watkins-Alpha Delta Pi game the Alpha Delta Pi's led 6-5. But Watkins rallied sufficiently in the last half to win 13-11. With Feggy Davis leading the offensive the Theta's defeated the Delta Gamma's 21-6. Rita Lemaine's six free throws for the Pi Phi's gave them a one point victory over their Gamma Phi opponents. The score was 6-5. IWW won 20-1 over the IND's with Levon Jacobson netting 10 of the 20 points. Frances Davidson's excellent defensive work helped hold the IND's to their low score. Sigma Kappa forfeited to Kappa Kappa Gamma and the ETC's forfeited to Co-op. Miss Ruth Hoover will announce the schedule for next week tomorrow. Night Classes for Women Chemists in Bailey Lab. Night classes to prepare women chemists for war industry are being held in room 108, Bailey laboratories, at 6:30 p.m. for four or five hours five nights a week. Mr. J. C. Horbath, of the chemistry staff of the Sunflower Ordnance Plant, aided by two graduate students, is giving instruction suited to employment in the Sunflower Ordnance Plant. This class has been running for six weeks and will complete its work soon. Smith, Nancy Monroe, Jane Reid, Anna Stevens, Mignon Morton, Mary Gene Hull, Ruth Krebhiel, Nadine Potter, Dorothy Burkhead, Janice Warders, Barbara Joyce Duree, Mary Elizabeth Stark, Juanita Bowman, and Elizabeth Holder. Dr. R. Q. Brewster, head of the chemistry department, with one assistant, is teaching the second section which began only a week ago. Each of these courses is designed to prepare women for laboratory work in war plants, and lasts from six to eight weeks. Another night program is expected to start early in January. Date Set for Next English Proficiency The second English proficiency examination will be given at 8:30 a. m., Saturday, Dec. 12, John B. Virtue, assistant professor of English has announced. Only juniors and seniors are eligible to take the examination. They must register at the college office, 229 Frank Strong hall, on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday of next week. When they register at the college office, students will be assigned to the place where they will take the examination. The examination will consist of 500 to 800 words of exposition, and will be judged by a faculty committee of five members for clarity of expression, logic, organization, and correctness in diction, grammar, and punctuation.

Machine gun shells smashed through a hydraulic line, splashing oil into the face of one of the gunners. A propeller stuck, and then enemy lead bit into the left foot of Cliburn. Henry Shenk, R.R. Strait, and John Anderson turned in one of the best officiating jobs of the season. The eleven-man all-stars, selected by the intramural managers from a poll taken of the members of their teams and the officials from their organization, contained four of the championship Beta squad. The caliber of the backfield material was so even that the eight men selected could be changed from one team to the other and neither team would suffer a loss. A few more second place votes made the difference in the personnel of the two teams. The line also contained many players of nearly the same ability. Center was the only position in which one player polled nearly all the first place votes. Bob Fierce of the Beta's outranked his rivals. Assault on St. Nazaire Palmer Wounded Lt. Philip Palmer, Wellington youth and former student at this University, was wounded recently when he and other crew members on a Flying Fortress escaped death while taking part in an aerial assault upon the U-boat base at St. Nazaire, France.

Charles "Red" Cliburn of Hazelhurst Miss., was one of several crew members wounded after dropping its bombs upon the Nazi base, the huge plane was attacked on its homeward journey by a flock of Focke-Wulf 190's.

The Christmas vacation situation will certainly be even worse, for a larger number of students, civilians, and service men will be on the move, while gasoline rationing will put a halt to automobile travel. Now is the time to begin making plans to handle the overflow of holiday travelers, and at least one sensible suggestion has been proposed by college students at this University. They suggest a bureau at which students with cars would register as being available to haul fellow student travelers residing in their hometown and points in between there and Lawrence. Expenses could be shared for this service. In return the car owner would be granted a temporary permit enabling him to purchase the gasoline necessary for the trip home and back to school. No excess gasoline would be sold. It is a question of whether the wear and tear on tires would be more than compensated for by the load taken off trains and busses at a time when those facilities will be under their greatest strain. The Kansan and many students think it would. It is a question that rationing bigwigs must decide, but now is the time for them to begin considering it. We have the gasoline—but do we have the train facilities? Is the emergency great enough for the temporary lifting, under certain restrictions, of the gasoline ban? Kansas Newspaper Man Retires After Many Years of Service After engraving his name in the history of outstanding men in journalism, Marco Morrow, former assistant publisher of the Capper Publications and until recently a director of the Audit Bureau of Circulation, is retiring from active journalism to begin writing thoughts and experiences which he never before has had time to record. Only because the field of journalism realizes it will be richer after Mr. Morrow completes such work does it agree to let him go. His years of service in the field have been outstanding in every respect, his youthful energy having led him from one task to another with a conquering spirit. His judgment and ideals have been developed through wide experience, and his open mind has given him an undying spirit of fair-play. His love for poetry and writing have combined, and it is with the ambition to add to his collection that he retires from his well-performed duties. This love for the beauty in life has not twisted his mind into a day dreamer's paradise, however. His straightforwardness, his realistic thinking, have embedded themselves in his writing and speaking until he writes and says what he believes and then continues believing it. It is with sadness and regret that the field of journalism receives word of Marco Morrow's resignation from the positions on the Capper Publications and the Audit Bureau of Circulations, but it is with a feeling of gratitude and admiration that his friends watch him go on to new aspirations. —V.T. Beware of Man Bearing the Name of "Quantrell" The announcement that shirt tails are to be shorter after Dec. 15 jolted Lawrence because it was made by William Quantrell, described in the dispatches as a New York authority on men's fashions. The local conviction is that some of the rationing experiments are being put into the hands of the wrong people. No native of this locality should be expected to take a reef in his shirt-tail on the say-so of anybody named Quantrell. A fellow named William Quantrell (later the historians decided it should be spelled Quantrill) caused a lot of trouble in this town early one August morning in 1863. Oral tradition relating to that historic raid says that such citizens as survived it did so only at the cost of departing hastily in dishabille, and concealing themselves in cornfields and timber nearby. The possibility that the Quantrell family got its shirttail complex on that spectacular morning will occur to many who have heard those stories of escape. (Reprinted from the Lawrence Journal World.)

"No doubt Christmas vacation will now be shortened to a convocation period, and Santa Claus will come around and pass out candy to all those with a 2.9 average." ***** A group of students in the "Shack" were discussing the ability of men to understand women. The girls insisted that women could understand men, but men were unable to comprehend women's actions. At this point, Bob Coleman, Templin hall, on the men's side, remarked (continued to page seven) A □ B □ WHICH would you vote "most likely to succeed?" "The Aircraft Warning System gives a single plane on ground alert the equivalent striking power of 16 planes on air patrol. This startling statement comes from England. Our country's Aircraft Warning Service—quite similar to England's—keeps a constant check on the flight of all aircraft. Should the need arise, it is prepared to send fighter planes aloft, to mobilize and direct ground defense forces, to warn endangered areas. Every step in its operation requires the fast, accurate communication of the telephone. This is just one of the many wartime jobs that are keeping telephone lines busier than ever before. To help us keep lines clear for vital military and industrial calls, please avoid using Long Distance to war activity centers unless the call is urgent. And please keep all your telephone calls as brief as you can. Thank you. THU ★ To the This Did I the ide of narr WARCALLS COME FIRST!

This is what I think, Luther H. Buchele! This is what I think, Luther H. Dutchess. Did I understand you to use the word "open-mindedness"—or did you possibly mean "opinionated?" If you ignore the news, the opinions, and the ideas, what other definition of such an action would there be; but that of narrow-mindedness? Included in your opening paragraph were several statements as to your idea of the Kansan, but you immediately passed them off with the comment — "the Kansan being what it is." I think you are somewhat presumptuous in assuming we all share your opinion of the Kansan. To my knowledge there has never been any pressure or coaching applied to those offering opinions. They are given freely in the manner of a democratic attitude. If we all accepted your idea that we were being forced to express our ideas concerning current Campus topics, then there would never have been this opportunity for me to express my opinion concerning what you think. These opinions to me are not petty grievances. They express the feeling of a portion of the free-thinking student body. In addition, what concrete proof can you offer that these opinions have been forced? Did you, by any chance, take a consensus or consult a large group of students to find out just how many do have brothers, friends, or husbands, or in some cases fathers, in our armed forces? These students know that a few days' increase in our vacation will not dangerously inhibit the efficiency of the present war effort. They also believe that a release, for at least ten days, from studies will improve the efficiency of the students and stimulate increased effort, while the lack of vacation will result in a lag in mind-production. But if K U adopts your proposed motto—"Victory Then Vacation"—Mr. Suechele, our answer and challenge to you is come on out and lead us!

One exhibit is of oil paintings by an American artist, Jane Peterson. The other is a series of photographs illustrating Chaucer's England, and is especially for the benefit of English literature students. The oil paintings are of flowers, colorful and well-shaded since they are all interior views of flowers. The artist has used well-known flowers for subjects such as peonies, roses, and daisies. be here in a seri Jane Peterson was born in Elgin, Ill., and studied both in this country and abroad. In 1938 she was named by the American Historical Society as the outstanding individual of the year for her accomplishments as an artist. Her portrait was used as frontispiece in that year's Encyclopedia of American Biography. Miss Peterson was a world traveler, patron, and exhibitor in galleries in Europe, Asia, and Africa before the war. The other exhibit, which will only be here until Dec. 7th, is one set in a series prepared by division of museum extension, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. These series try to present different periods of literature for the benefit of English students, and the extension division offers a reproduction of these exhibits for sale. The University has bought several of these series. The story of the Canterbury Tales is presented with illustrations which suggest the character of the architecture, the manners and customs, and the social orders of Chaucer's day as individually known to the Filgrims.

Laura Lu Tolsted and Ada Swineford, graduate students doing field work for their thesis in geology, made a trip to Vinita, Okla., last weekend to collect fossils. ***** Unknown to them, a farmer who had become suspicious of their actions called a sheriff, apparently thinking they were either inmates of a nearby asylum or fifth columnists. The girls walked out of town a few miles and stopped along the roadside to hunt for some fossils. The sheriff seized their pick hammers, searched the bags of rocks, and read all their field notes. These made the sheriff even more suspicious, and he was determined to take them before the judge. The girls were just as determined that he would not, and at last the officer allowed them to go on the condition that they take their rock-picking stuff back to K U and stay there. Sailors in Social Swing Women Plan Parties If she is a good listener or can do the Boogie Stomp "St. Louis style,"a junior hostess is a social success. Junior hostesses are University and Lawrence women, over the age of eighteen, who spend at least one Saturday night a month entertaining sailors at the Lawrence Community building. University women who act as junior hostesses have written permission from their parsons on me in the office of Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, dean of women. Mrs. Lawrence Woodruff was selected as chairman of the junior hostess committee, and she works with Miss Meguar in recruiting hostesses from the approved list of University women. Lawrence women, who serve as chaperons at the dances and assist with the Sunday recreation program are known as senior hostesses. Chairman of this group is Miss Deal Six, who also secures special entertainers. First in popularity among the sailors in the community program is dancing. The dances are held from 9 to 12 on Saturday night. The junior hostesses come and leave unescorted. Music is recorded. Sailors may bring out-of-town dates if they arrange with Miss Santee at least one day ahead. Those who don't care to dance may play cards, chess, checkers and bingo. The sponsor furnishes prizes for bingo winners and serves light refreshments. A coke dispenser is set up in the game room. Aimless every Saturday evening a song leader directs the group in community singing. University Students Entertained Entertainers include the Haskell Indian Exhibit group, the Hollyfield trio, Dr. H. S. Dolan, accordion player, and the following University students: Roberta Cackley, freshman in Fine Arts, dancer; Alberta White, sophomore in Fine Arts, dancer; and Frank Stannard, sophomore in engineering, xylophonist. Since Sam Center of the first division graduated, and no longer provides music with his saw, "Red" Poyner is the chief Navy performer, "Red" formerly played his mandolin before audiences in the El Rancho Grando Hotel in El Paso. University Students Entertained The Saturday night dances are part of the Lawrence Recreation Program, directed by Miss Marie Santee and sponsored by the civic organizations of Lawrence. Miss Santee started directing recreation for defense workers who poured into Lawrence when construction began on the Sunflower Ordnance plant. Friday night was set aside for "get-acquainted parties." Square dances were given on Thursday night, and the game room was open the rest of the week. Scheduled basketball and volleyball tournaments have been conducted. First Dance Planned July 18 OFFICIAL BULLETIN Miss Santee on July 18 in cooperation with Lawrence civic organizations, arranged for young women to be present for the first dance for members of the Navy training school.

Graduate To Find Egg Value A graduate student in the foods and nutrition department at Iowa State College, Ames, Iowa is undertaking a project to determine the biological value of dried eggs. Laboratory tests on dried and fresh egg proteins will determine whether essential parts of the protein are destroyed in the drying process.

PAGE EIGHT UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1942 Orchestra Shares Concert Spotlight Patriotism Is Main Theme Of V-Concert The Victory Concert at 8 p.m. tonight in Hoch auditorium will have as its theme "Patriotism." This will be exemplified by the 300-man Navy chorus which, under the direction of E. Thayer Gaston, assistant professor of education and public school music, and Ensign O. N. Pederson, welfare and receration officer, will sing several national songs. The chorus will also present the colors in military style. Corp. Dick Rice, a former student now stationed at Fort Leonard Wood, will conduct the symphony orchestra in its opening number, the Star Spangled Banner. Beethoven's Fifth Symphony will lend to the patriotic theme with its basic motif of rhythm comparable to the Morse code V. A concerto for four solo instruments and stringed orchestra will be played by Robert Sedore, violin; Robert Forman, oboe; Eugene Crabb, trumpet; and Gordon May, flute. The first three of these boys are former University students and all four of them are at present first class seamen at the Gardner Naval air base. Kuersteiner Aranges Tschaiikowsky's Symphony No. IV in F Minor will be played by the entire orchestra followed by an "Arioso" by Bach which will feature thirty solo violins and violas. These will be accompanied by woodwinds, cellos, and basses. This number was arranged by Karl Kuersteiner, professor of violin and orchestra. "On the Trail" from the Grand Canyon Suite by Ferde Grofe will contain solos by Don Michel, violin; Wade Fite, oboe; Doradeen Perry, trombone; and Anabel Keeler, harp. This number portrays a musical trip down into the Grand Canyon. Concluded by Navy The program will be concluded by national songs and the presentation of the colors by the United States Navy personnel, the audience participating in the singing. They will include "Anchors Aweigh," "Here Comes the Navy," and "Star Spangled Banner." According to Professor Kuersteiner the entire program will be "concise and to the point." It will be approximately one hour in length. Professor Kuersteiner also stated that there will be a tax on all tickets excluding activity books. All men in uniform will be admitted free. Members of Mu Phi Epsilon, women's music sorority, will act as ushers. 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 Front row, left to right: Betty Frank Carey, Kansas City; Sarah Jane Wilkerson, Kansas City; Maureen Blair, McPherson; Georgia White, Wichita; Patti Duncan, Kansas City, Mo.; Maureen Breitenbach, Belpre Penelope Boxmeyer, Overland Park; Joan Power, Beloit.

Panel Will Discuss Objectors To War The question, "What about the Conscientious Objector?" will be discussed tonight on the next-to-the-last series of broadcast by the Forums board. John Waggoner will act as chairman of the broadcast, which begins at 9:30 over station KFKU. FULLER BRUSHES "The group will examine the theoretical argument of pacificism, or, in other words, what the conscientious objector believes," explained Merrill Peterson, president of the Forums board. The panel will discuss what is being done and what should be done with the conscientious objector. Members of the panel on the roundtable discussion will be Ralph Michener, college junior, Laird Campbell, college sophomore, Betty Kalis, college junior, and Colleen Poorman, college senior. BALLET DANCERS IN K. U. VICTORY PROGRAM "Another question to be discussed is, 'what is the Criterion of a Conscientious Objector?' And in connection with the question, the method by the British government and local selective service boards in the United States will be discussed," added the president. All Enlisted Reserves May Be Enrolled in ROTC Previous to the receipt of this order the navy, marine, and coast guard enlisted reserves were excluded from the ROTC program. Now the basic military training is available to all the reserves. Any member of any of the enlisted reserves—army, navy, marine, or coast guard—may now be enrolled in ROTC also, according to an order received Tuesday by the department of military science and tactics from the war department.

I also love art and music. 40TH YEAR Third Class For WOW's To Open Soon The down to earth program for preparing women to enter industrial war production, at the University of Kansas, gained momentum today with the announcement by Dr. R. Q. Brewster, chairman of the department of chemistry, that a third class for women in the chemistry and manufacture of explosives, would be opened on Mt. Oread on December 28. Already two classes, one in the analysis of smokeless powder taught by a chemist from the Hercules Powder company, and a second in the chemistry and manufacture of explosives taught by Dr. Brewster, are in session five nights a week on the campus. The new class and that taught by Dr. Brewster were started at the request of the Hercules Powder company, operating agency for the new munitions plant soon to be opened near Lawrence, and while those completing the courses are not guaranteed positions in the plant; company officials have assured stu- ents that there is every likelihood for employment if proficiency in the class work is demonstrated. Students in the course in the analysis in smokeless powder are listed as civil service employees of the government, and are already receiving compensation as such. The courses in chemistry and manufacture of explosives are open to women from 18 to 65, Dr. Brewster stated, and should have some knowledge of chemistry, preferably high school chemistry or its equivalent. However, Dr. Brewster pointed out, other scientific knowledge may be substituted. These courses are offered under the Engineering Science Management War Training program, supervised by the Extension Division of the University of Kansas and sponsored by the United States Office of Education. Approximately 25,000 industrial workers in Kansas and Missouri have received training under the University's administration in this program, nearly one fourth of them women. Dr. Brewster pointed out that for students enrolled in the chemistry courses, there would be no charges since the government is providing funds for the training, even to providing laboratory materials. The course consists of one hour class period with three hours of laboratory sessions each day five days per week.

Bach's Brandenburg Concerto in F was presented with solo parts by four First Class Seamen in uniform Robert Sedore, violin, Gordon May, flute, Robert Forman, oboe, and Eugene Crabb, trumpet. They were accompanied by the string section of the orchestra, and Margaret Dunn at the piano. Purpose of the committee is to examine candidates from the Kansas bar who wish to become qualified for federal service. If attorneys pass the committee's requirements, their names will be placed upon the Federal register as eligible to receive civil service appointments in governmental bureaus. Sailors, Ballet Dancers Enliven Musical Program An entertaining program was the Victory Concert presented in Hoch auditorium last night by Karl Kuersteiner and the K.U. Symphony Orchestra, assisted by a chorus of some 375 sailors, a ballet troupe of 24 University women, and four instrumental soloists from the Olathe Naval Air Base. Committee members in each of the states are composed of a judge, a teacher of law, and a practicing attorney. Corp. Richard Rice, a former member of the orchestra, now serving in the armed forces, conducted Stravinsky's version of the Star Spangled Bearner as the opening number. Thirty violinists lined up on the stage and played in unison the longlined melody of Bach's "Arioso" to the accompaniment of woodwinds, cellos and basses. The arrangement was by Mr. Kuersteiner.

O. Stoland. professor of physiology; H.C. Tracy, professor of anatomy; and C.F.Nelson, professor of biochemistry. Previous plans for medical students had called for their transfer at the beginning of the summer semester, but because of limited facilities and loss of instructors on the Kansas City staff. the large number of medical students cannot be handled at that time. In accelerating the program, entrants to the School of Medicine are being accepted each nine months instead of each twelve months. Transfer of Medics Delayed A Semester Medical students who entered the School of Medicine in June, 1942, will not be transferred to Kansas City for the completion of their courses until the fall semester of 1943, according to the revised program being worked out by the faculty curriculum committee. City, about 9:15 p.m., Saturday. Kansas University will meet the Gardner Clippers before 5,000 or more fans at Kansas City's Municipal auditorium Saturday night with the same style of offense that brought the Jayhawks an NCAA playoff spot last season -the fire wagon fast break. After Missouri and the Iowa Seahawks settle gridiron differences the same afternoon, Coach Jack Gardner's Clippers will attempt to do what he could never accomplish while at Kansas State—defeat Kansas. Menke Recovered Lt. Gardner has ace Bill Menke, a former member of two fives that whipped Kansas easily, on hand for the Jayhawks. Menke, formerly with Indiana and Great Lakes, did not play in the Oklahoma A-M defeat Wednesday because of an injury. Coach F. C. Allen expects to "trade goal for goal with the Clippers." Although the Clippers have been working longer as a unit than the Jayhawks, Allen believes that his squad is in better condition than Gardner's. Following this plan, Phog thinks his quintet "may wear the Naval Clippers into submission." To do this, Kansas will have to perform much better than in the game against the fresh Tuesday. The Jay-hawks do not look quite as sharp as during the same period early last season. Rooters Will Be There Kansas' cheering section will be represented by the Argentine high school band, substituting for the University Band, Cheerleaders Van Peterson and Ruth Krehbiel, and several students. Charlie Black, who was usually assigned to the tallest scoring ace last season, will guard Menke or Center Grady Lewis. If Lt. Gardner places Menke on the post, the big junior will cover him. Ray Evans is expected to be more of an offensive threat this season with Dr. Allen placing more scoring duties on him. This shift will put more defensive work on Bill Brill, a Marvin Sollenberger type of player. Johnny Buescher and Otto Schnellbacher are equally proficient at offense and defense. All 22 squadmen will leave Saturday afternoon for Kansas City.

It usually takes a year to cook it and then it stews and simmers around for another year and then it blurps out the next year like toast out of an automatic toaster. Fads, I'm talking about. That drove us flon-eyed. Looking like t Now back in '39, before the waterways between us and the silkworm were hazarded, and hose for women were marked to 98c a pair, we used to play "train" on cold winter mornings. About 7:30 a.m. a brutal snowplow would smear the iceing off the Hill where studious feet were destined to trod and following close on its mole-board were two or three campus barelegs. That's what I said... b-a-r-e-l-e-g-s! That was called smart in those days. Plenty of socks back at the house but they had to spend a half hour of deep rationalization before walking out without them. The guys walking behind the frigid muscle-members were the innocent bystanders that caught the colds, psychological colds, that's what they were. Just like freezing all the way down main street in six-below weather and having an ice truck wink at you. But a few of the legs were covered with white rubber boots. That drove us flap-eyed. Looking like the white flags of a hospital ship, they flopped back and forth through a trying winter, bucking the winds and embarrassing the winter as a whole. Once in a while a tinge of woolen red in sock form was seen peeeping from the brim of the rubberish whites and then somebody got the idea that the socks without the boots wouldn't look so bad. Someone else put the idea in Vogue, the price went to $1.65, and spring came. It isn't so bad around here in the summer time. Objections to short, swimming suits with a swimming pool attached, and slacks of the tight-rope variety, are out of all reason. There is a time place for everything, even in the summer.

The big junior plays with an ease that is pleasing to watch—most of the time. --- THEY WON'T DO MUCH BUT TALK At the Kansas City convention of Big Six faculty heads Dec. 11-12, the representatives will concentrate on the abolition or curtailment of all sports, beginning with track in 1943 and carrying on with football and basketball as their turns come. But the policy makers probably will defer judgment until the March meeting, owing to the pins-and-needle status of the military reserves (chiefly army enlisted reserve that may be ordered to active duty at the end of this semester—nothing has been said to the contrary since Secretary Stimson declared Sept. 10 that army reservists should expect to be called at the end of the fall semester By March the air will be cleared and the representatives may find themselves with no decisions to make if the enlisted reserves are called. Big Six schools will be hard put to sponsor any intercollegiate sport with engineers, chemists and medics too busy studying to spend much time on the gridiron or court. 点 条 水 章 日 ATHLETICS OR WAR TRANSPORTATION? Coach Forrest C. Allen didn't like it when Iowa of the Big Ten canceled its non-conference basketball games to "relieve the overtaxed railroads of the added burden of carrying athletic teams." He asserts that the government looks on intercollegiate athletics as "moral-builders and good training for the future service man." Also, that mail and freight increases and reduced speeds, not excessive passenger travel, "is slowing up the railroads." A check of the figures reveals that railroads carried more than 1,000,000 passengers in 1921 and will have transported 600,000 in 1942, an increase of only 100,000 over 1941. But troop movements are probably not included in the 1942 total, as they are classed military secrets. So, a true statistical picture of present railroad travel cannot be given. But personal experience leaves the impression that railroads and busses are usually well filled. The government is reducing all services not directly connected with the war effort. Manpower and fuel shortages and the huge movement of war freight and service men prompts the Office of Defense Transportation to decree less travel. Whether this viewpoint includes traveling athletic squads has, so far, been left to the discretion of universities, traveling baseball and football teams and other sports travelers. Director Joseph B. Eastman wrote major league magnates meeting at Chicago this week that they "might find means of reducing travel during the baseball season." This opens the way for the ODT to abolish or reduce athletic travel. The issue is: Are college athletics enough of a morale builder to offset the vital use of the railroads?

St. Phone 524 Allen Begins Second Quarter Century Phog Hands Title To Drake "Oklahoma looks like a first-class favorite this year," stated Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, the University's veteran basketball mentor, in opening the annual prognosticating derby on the Big Six cage outlook today. Missouri and Kansas probably will be the strongest other contenders, according to Phog. Kansas will keenly feel the loss of last year's ace scorer, Ralph Miller, who hit his stride during the latter part of the season and succeeded in outscoring Tucker, the conference leader, during the five-game period that Tucker played. Miller's shoes will have to be filled by some less - experienced man. Drake, the Oklahoma coach, is best remembered by University of Kansas fans for his verbal duel with Dr. Allen over the ineligibility of Tucker last year. "Bruce Drake has most of his old boys back," Phog said, "Gerald Tucker, Bob McCurdy, A.D. "Ug" Roberts, and the other stars of last year." He also pointed out that Allie Faine, outstanding performer on the 1940-41 Sooner squad, will be in uniform again this season after laying off a year. Nebraska would seem to be the strongest of the remaining Big Six teams, by Phog's rating. But Iowa Kansas Corrects Errors "Don't get me wrong, though," Dr. Allen warned, "for Kansas will be in their fighting for top honors all the way. Our squad, although inexperienced, is made up of scrappy, colorful players, and I believe that the fans will not be disappointed in their performance." Jack Stapleton, listed on the Kansas's eleven-man all star team at left tackle as from Alpha Tau Omega, is a member of Delta Tau Delta. Five Beta Theta Pi gridiers made the all-star team instead of four and Dick Pierce was incorrectly called Bob Fierce. State, with a green, inexperienced squad might prove to be a dark horse. "Our own team has a fine spirit," he concluded, "our morale is high. We have been working hard on fundamentals. We may not end up on top this year, but we will look like a basketball team."

"Phog" Allen's Kansas cagers tangle with Coach Jack Gardner's Navy Clippers at Kansas City Saturday. Most important personage at the game will be "Phog" himself for he will be starting his second quarter-century of basketball coaching at the University. Allen started his coaching on Mt. Oread in 1908 but after two years he left to study medicine. After a seven-year coaching tenure at Warwensburg, Mo., Teachers College he came back to the Jayhawk school in 1920 and has been here since. During his 25 years of coaching at Kansas Allen has produced 18 conference champions. Out of 486 games his teams have been victorious in 373 for a mark of 77 per cent. His lifetime coaching record shows 553 victories out of 680 games for an average of 81 per cent. His 32 years of coaching with 25 championships make him the dean of American basketball coaches.

J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering, spoke to the Rotary club of Kansas City yesterday at its luncheon in the Hotel Muelebach. Dean Jakosky predicted that the trained administrator and technician will be the man of tomorrow. Because all nations are tending toward managerial governments, the outcome of the present war will be to determine whether "despicable management" or "democratic management" will reign. Asking "what way of life is indicated by basic changes in our social order," Dean Jakosky outlined four trends already underway which might answer this question. "First, labor has increased its political and economic power through the ballot, but the worker's relative importance as a laborer has declined because of the advance of machinery. "Second," the dean pointed out, "capitalists cannot stand the high tax regulations and will be replaced by skilled technicians running the big industries." "Third, more profit-sharing will be adopted, for labor and capital have increasingly identical viewpoints. "Fourth," Jakosky predicted, "more government spending, with specialized managers to do much of administration planning." Dean Jakosky emphasized, "the chief reason why agriculture at present generally is unprofitable is because it is such an inefficient manufacturing industry." He suggested the solution lies in some type of collective farming, on a cooperative basis, and bigger farms.

The waving of and swirling of long, flowing dresses constituted the dance. The choreography was the creation of Jean Bliss, director of the ballet troupe. Ferde Grofe's "On The Trail" gave color to the program. Don Michel played the violin solo, Anabel Keeler, harp, Wade Fite, obe, and Doraden Perry, trombone. The climax of the program came with the entrance of the sailors' chorus to the tune of "Anchors Aweigh." As the color bearers came in at the head of the procession, the audience rose and remained standing until the chorus was in position and had sung, "Here Comes the Navy," to the piano accompaniment of Melvin Zack. The evening closed, as it had begun, with the National Anthem. Mr. E. Thayer Gaston, assistant professor of public school music, led the audience in one verse while the sailors stood at attention.

Dr. E. L. Treece, associate professor of bacteriology, told his students that the greatest threats for future epidemics were cholera, which has broken out in Missouri. During the last war the most devastating epidemic was that of meningitis. Walker is an official recently added to the health unit staff. Since he has taken office, he has enforced the laws concerning garbage and trash disposal and has required that all outdoor toilets be torn down and reconstructed according to government specifications. He is determined that there will be a reform in the restaurant conditions. Walker mentioned no eating places in particular, though he said, "There are two up on the Hill which, I understand, need investigating." Following a preliminary investigation, Lawrence eating establishments have been given two weeks in which to clean up, according to a statement by Joe L. Walker, sanitarian for the Douglas county health unit. Walker said that there had been previous warnings which certain establishments had chosen to ignore. The situation has reached beyond city violation as the Navy men who take meals out during the weekend leave are involved. "Army and Navy authorities elsewhere have put such places out of bounds." Walker said. Health Officer Warns Lawrence Eating Places "If there isn't some improvement in sanitation, especially in dishwashing," he began, then lapsed out of his temporary threatening attitude, and said that he was certain that there would be improvements. What he said concerning the two week probationary period completes his warning. He admitted that it was "sort of a one-man job," and added, "I would appreciate any cooperation or any report on existing conditions."

Former Student Returns From Chinese War Front By Lucille Kadel Three years of association with the Japanese in conquered Chinese territory has been experienced by a University graduate, Miss Ruth Daniels, recently returned from China after working 22 years in the missionary service. While in China, Miss Daniels was connected with a school in Nanchang, about 90 miles south of the Yangtze river. During the invasion, the educational system underwent drastic change, said Miss Daniels. painted the word 'diplomat' in large white letters." "There was only one high school left in the city. The other schools had been moved to safer areas. All of our school buildings, except the dormitory, were transformed to serve the wounded soldiers. Students had an opportunity to help the wounded. Girls wrote letters for the soldiers, gave programs, and did mending. Care for the soldiers was done after school hours." School was continued until the summer of 1938, when it was moved to the south," she continued. Missionaries and Diplomats Leave. The invaders took missionaries, and the diplomatic corps to Shanghai and gave them passage on ships. It was June when the ship left Shanghai. Not until August did Miss Daniels arrive in New York When asked if the Japanese demanded that she and the other missionaries evacuate, Miss Daniels answered, "The Japanese asked if we wished to leave. We said 'no.' After several such opportunities, when the United States and Japan were at war, the Japanese gave us military orders to leave." "Our guaranteed safe passenger ships were the only ones on the whole ocean that were lighted at night. White electric crosses were on the ends of the ship, and on one ship, was Madame and Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek made their headquarters during 1932 in Nanchang where Miss Daniels was working. She know them both, and remarked that "wherever they went, they won the people with their earnestness and sincerity," she explained. The importance of the American missionary work was stressed when Miss Daniels told that the respect which the majority of the Japanese showed toward her and her friends was the result of their knowledge and experience with the American missionaries in their country. "About ten years ago, the Generalissimo requested through the League of Nations advisers to help build the Chinese government. German advisers helped build the army. Denmark started a cooperative movement to help combat Communism. America gave health advice. Some of the Germans who helped, were not followers of Hitler, and regretted having to leave China," Miss Daniels said. Missionary Work Important Miss Daniels concluded, "There are good people in Japan, just as there are here. The reconstruction after the war must be made by cooperation with, not domination of, the good people here in this country. Otherwise, there will be another war."

Basis for the complaint was a series of grievances, which were merely listed and not explained. The Kansan presents the MSC interpretation of the grievances, the validity of which will be determined only after the special committee has agreed with the Chancellor on the actual extent of student government at the University: 1. "Student vacations have arbitrarily . . . been shortened . . . " The MSC does not object to the actual shortening, but objects to the method by which it was done—"without any consultation with the student body." According to the Council, students' objection to vacation curtailment would have been almost negligible if they had been informed that such a move was in prospect. 2. "Taking from students the control of their activity fee." The MSC constitution provides that "a central committee on activities (composed of ten students and five administration representatives) shall . . . administer . . . the activity fund. . . ." The Council claims that the allocation of the activity fund has been entirely a function of administration officials this year. 3. "Violating published bills of the MSC concerning parking on the Campus and varsity dances." The MSC constitution provides that no cars violating Campus parking rules be tagged for fines before Oct. 15, so that students owning cars may become familiar with the rules and obtain licenses. The MSC asserts that the Chancellor ordered the tagging of cars during the first weeks of school, before the parking committee had issued licenses. The constitution also states that the dance manager, in conjunction with the social committees of the MSC and WSGA, shall determine how many varsity dances shall be held and when they shall be held. The MSC contends that the dance manager submitted 14 dates for varsity dances, but that the number was cut to six without explanation or consultation. 4. "Failing to consult with the Joint Committee on Student Affairs." The Joint Committee with a membership of half students and half faculty members, is appointed each year as an "advisory cabinet" of the Chancellor. The MSC says that the committee has not been called this year, but that it should be consulted on every administration measure which affects University students. 5. "Taking from students recreation facilities on the Hill while denying them the use of downtown facilities for organized parties." The Council contention is that the administration, with no consideration of Campus feeling, has denied students the use of the Memorial Union ballroom, and, at the same time, prohibited organized houses from holding their dances in downtown Lawrence. In summary, the MSC case is based not only on alleged objectionable acts but also on objectionable methods. Patriotism, the members Just Wondering Why students who habitually congregate in the doorways of University buildings don't realize just what a source of annoyance they are to their schoolmates. --say, should be a privilege, not an enforced duty. Student government, they claim, should be active, not decorative. Intercollegiate Debates Train Post-War World Leaders Is intercollegaite debating worthwhile in wartime? To this question the University of Kansas has so far given an affirmative answer, and all indications point to a continuance of debating at this University for the duration of the war. There are those who would class debating as a superfluous activity, which could well be done away with, at least until we are again at peace. Now is the time for action—not words, they say. However, they are forgetting that while war demands prompt obedience to official authority, not deliberation and discussion, now is the time to begin the training of the leaders of the post-war world. Tomorrow will be too late to train leaders for tomorrow's world. Now is the time to develop among young women and young men the ability to think clearly and constructively. It is important for the nation that its college-trained citizens gain sound ideas about public problems and learn to express them with a force that carries conviction. Public speaking in debate is perhaps the best of the instruments offered by the colleges for such training.

CLEOPATRA KNEW Masculine Classifications Men Debunked BY BETTY LOU PERKINS Although Webster claims that man is a human being or—an adult male of human species or—one possessed of manly qualities in high degree, this is just one man's opinion. I wonder if Webster ever asked a woman's opinion before writing his definition of man in his famous dictionary? In failing to do so Webster deprived himself of many picturesque and colorful words. But, if he had obtained such opinions, he would have found it necessary to add a supplement containing all the names a woman could call a man. The criteria by which college men are measured differ vastly from that of those of their compatriots outside the institution of learning. After observing men with an impersonal and detached concentration, a co-ed who has been here only a few weeks can easily classify college men into one of the categories emanating from days of Cleopatra. Operator and Wolf Differentiated To proceed, nearly every girl during her college career goes with an "operator." Being asked for a date by an operator might even be considered a compliment. Operators date a different girl every night, but they are particular. Only the better girls are honored by his attentions. Then some clever coed grabs him and his "operating" days are over—but he had fun! Next, and sad though it is, must come the "wolf." A "wolf" dates many girls, too, but only one at a time. He tries valiantly, but if he can't get both arms around his date, he gives up the struggle with a sigh and tries someone new. The most effective way to get the best of a wolf seems to be not to retreat, but to look him squarely in the eye. If his intentions are dishonorable, he will run. He does. The BMOC (Big Man On Campus) is a flash in the pan, so to speak. Students are glad he is around to do his job, but hope he does his work with a minimum of display of bally-hoo. He is usually engaged, anyway, so who cares.

The present situation where students who have or soon will have the ballot and many of whom are wholly or partially financially independent, having little or no voice in the management of their own affairs and the expenditure of their activity book money is absurd. JAY "SENATOR" GUNNELS Dear Sir: It seems that the only valid reason that the Chancellor has for supporting an infinitesimally short or completely lacking Christmas vacation is the furtherance of the war effort. That, in itself, is a very admirable motive. But, is this argument consistent? Will it actually further the war effort? For my part, I don't think it will. I agree with the Kansan in that a short vacation will greatly incomme transportation facilities on Dec. 23, 24, 25, and 26. On the other hand, as Secretary Knox asserts, the complete elimination of Christmas vacation would be most advantageous. However, there is one thing that the University authorities and Secretary Knox seem to have overlooked—and that is the human element. Are we robots that we must sit here and watch the abolition of all the sacred traditions of our democracy—the traidions for which this war is being waged to preserve? On the contrary, I believe that every minor thing that can be done to keep our country democratic should be done. How, may I ask, are one or two weeks going to materially aid the war effort? Would it not be just as efficacious to have double assignments for one week during the semester? Apparently, with all the emphasis on bolstering the morale of our armed forces, the civilian morale has been consequently ignored. It is unjust, unnecessary, and thoroughly unmindful of the dire situations arising from immature minds being imprisoned within one strict seminary for a nine-months period without a reprieve. CLEOPATRA KNEW---- Sincerely, (continued from page six) be her dream man. A pest receives no encouragement and never a date but he is a persistent little cuss. The "Joe College" type is the girls' piece. Wearing a "juke" suit of some strange design, he calls on his date in a battered jallopy, which may or may not get to its destination. He's slap-happy, a hep-cat" and a dynamo of untwiring energy. A rest cure is the inevitable result of one date with this live-wire. A STUDENT. A "Fuddie Duddie" takes himself too seriously. If a girl says a few kind words to him or merely tries to be friendly, he worries. He's secretly afraid that he is being vamped by a wicked college hussy and he mustn't let himself forget the girl back home. The "Not So Ho!" Types Then there's the tall, dull, and handsome man. Socially, he gives one prestige. It is good for the coed's date rating to be seen with him. But when alone with him, his speech consists of "Uh huh" and "Unh nuh." Most of the time silence dominates. The "hunk o' man" thinks that every girl who looks his way has fallen secretly in love with him. He spends hours in front of a mirror muttering to himself: "Egad, man, how can you be so handsome and still be single?" The "Hollywood, here I come" look stands out all over him. Girls usually wish he'd hurry and go. The "blotters" are the boys who date a girl because she has tomer- Koopman and Students Attend KHK Convention Prof. R. K. Koopman, associate professor of electrical engineering, George Bolt, engineering senior, and Arthur Benner, engineering junior, attended the twentieth annual convention of Kappa Eta Kappa, professional electrical engineering fraternity, held at Minneapolis, Nov. 27 and 28. Professor Koopman is the retiring president of the national organization. FULLER BRUSHES row's lesson. Naturally this boy must be subtle enough to get all the information he needs and still not let the girl guess his ulterior motive. Often, however, the blotter is fooled, because the girl doesn't have the lesson, either. Naturally the studious type is prevalent. These boys study. That's all. They just study. So no one is bothered by them. The studious boy is just another face on the campus. Women Deserve Sympathy Generally speaking, most college men will fall under one or more of these categories. Thus, pity the poor girls! The musician dates a girl in his off moments when he isn't working on his "off-beats." He dates to gain a mental "pick-up," not from his date, but from a change of environment. After the date, he can't quite remember whether the girl was a blonde or a brunette. Not that it matters.

Telephone 1902 Rationing Used Mucilage To Save Steel Do you know that, according to a recent elaborate and technical survey by three student engineers., had the government used two staples instead of mucilage to bind each rationing book, the total number of feet of wire required to complete the task reaches the astronomical figure of slightly more than 757 miles? Owing to the coefficient of expansion and contraction of wire in the varying temperatures that are encountered from coast to coast, the engineers conducting the survey allow a deviation factor of plus or minus one-tenth of one per cent. If there be any dubious persons among the readers who are skeptical about the accuracy of the foregoing compilation of statistics, the authors have only to refer such reputable persons to the following empirical formula which follows: L=C(207 + 60i + 0.1056G) - 2.5d + -2+6560mA(0.07H + 0.453p) - 18.7 i +2-656tanA-00.7H - 0.4349 + 18.17 Based on the fact (worked out by formula - G=X(13b+4.1/2u) + 0.00041 - 7.3/3) there are approximately 1,173,360 drops of glue in one gallon, it can be assumed that the substitution from wire lessened government expenses and forced no reduction on the nation's supply of steel. Any resemblance of the above statements to an actual fact is pure_ly coincidental. Will Euteriain Law Freshmen Dean F. J.

F. B. Price, the new British consul in Kansas City, told a group of faculty members and their wives at a luncheon yesterday noon in the University club in the Memorial Union building. Altogether, there are 7 million women in England engaged either in armament work or in the military services, Mr. Price stated. The fact that so many fathers and mothers are in wartime activities makes the need for nurseries much greater than ever before, he declared. He praised the University for help in establishing the Jayhawk Nursery in England to care for children made homeless by the war. The nursery committee hopes to have Mr. Price here in the near future to speak in connection with a drive to obtain funds for another year's maintenance of the Jayhawk Nursery, according to Dr. A. J.

Kansas Trails Throughout Game BY MILO FARNETI Kansan Sports Editor Dec. 6 —Special to the Kansan— A disorganized KU basketball squad handed the Gardner Clippers a 40-29 game in the Municipal auditorium of Kansas City last night to give the service teams an even break for the day. The Missouri Tigers defeated the Iowa Seahawks 7-0 in snowy Ruppert Stadium when Bob Steuber ran 60 yards to a touchdown in the second play of the game. The Jayhawks got nowhere against the guarding of Grady Lewis and his mates, and the Clippers controlled the rebounds. Each team made 22 fouls. Ray Evans, KU guard, left the game on fouls with 10 minutes left to play in the second half. Otto Schnellbacher, sophomore forward, also fouled out. Kansas scored only seven field goals as the Clipper defense kept the Jayhawks far out. The defending Big Six champs appeared far off form as Charley Black, Jack Ballard, and John Buescher bombarded the basket with wild long shots. Gardner went into an early lead, 4 to 0, and remained comfortably ahead throughout the game. Harold Howey, former Iola junior college star, tallied 11 points to lead the scorers. Charley Black, with three field goals and a free throw, and Buescher, with a field goal and five free throws, paced Kansas scoring with seven points each.

A variety of gifts from hand woven neckties and scarves to boxes of candy will be on sale. Boxes of sugar cubes will be included in the Bazaar. Students visiting the bazaar will find gifts for every member of the family from small brother to grandmother, Marion Hepworth, in charge of the bazaar, said yesterday. All gifts are priced within the students' price range, she added. Scrapbooks containing photographs and pictures of foreign countries were given recently to Spooner-Thayer museum by W. S. Johnson, professor of English. Some of these scrap books are of special interest today since they have photographs of Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco. YWCA members who worked on the finance drive several weeks ago met Wednesday to plan the bazaar. They will work as salesgirls and cashiers during their free hours. Jeanne Shoemaker will be in charge of the sale Wednesday; Virginia Rader, Thursday; and Marion Hepworth will supervise the bazaar on the last day. Unusual Scrapbooks Donated to Museum The photographs, pictures, and colored postcards reflect the picturesque countryside, the people, and the architecture of the buildings. Besides the localities prominent in the news today, other countries are shown in the scrap books. Among these are England, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, and Mallorca. These scrapbooks were given to Mr. and Mrs. Johnson by Mrs. A. C. Eastman for the museum. A friend of Mrs. Eastman's had traveled extensively over the world, and had given these scrap books to her. More than 95 Czech teachers, priests, and physicians were arrested by the Nazis last month in continued reprisals against Slovak intellectuals.

As a footnote, it is pointed out that the Japanese is the primary language taught in North China's remaining schools. Navy Relocates General Offices Administrative offices of the Naval Training School were remodeled and relocated this week for more adequate quarters. The renovation plans were made to facilitate office routine. Sick bay, which originally occupied the front east room, has been moved to the center room, formerly two classrooms on the east side of the west hall in Frank Strong hall. It has been occupied by Ship's Company men as quarters. A connecting doorway has been cut into the medical office and a partition installed to make provisions for a kitchen unit. The move provides more adequate facilities to handle present needs and is an independent unit. The officer of the day office has been placed at a position adjacent to the main entrance where a 24-hour watch is maintained to prevent unauthorized entry or exit. This office, in addition, houses the main switchboard and the station telephone operator. Other offices that were changed include the executive office, supply office, division office, and the chief master-at-arms office. The captain's office, medical office, and medical dispensary were not affected by the moves. Venetian blinds have been installed in all offices, in the sick bay on main deck, and in all navy quarters on the second deck. Further contemplated improvements for the comfort and welfare of personnel attached to the school will include complete refurbishing of the reception room, formerly the history office, where trainees may receive their parents and guests during the weekends. Conduct High School Physical Education Clinic Henry Shenk, Ruth Hoover, R. R. Strait, Joie Stapleton and Beverly Bliss, of the department of physical education, and Captain George B.

Bee, successful coach at Long Island University, doesn't care for F. C. Allen's 12-foot basket idea preferring to pit his skill against the boys who bat the ball out. **** INTRAMURALS BEGIN WEDNESDAY If you're worried over the later start of intramural basketball this season, consider some of the difficulties hard-working Henry Shenk is having: 1. Physical education classes, fine arts classes and varsity and freshman basketball are using Robinson gymnasium and Hoch auditorium at regularly scheduled and unscheduled times. Whenever the Navy, CPT, fine arts or varsity-frosh basketball want the two buildings, intramurals suffer (even now, playing times have not been definitely set). Team entries are almost as large as last season. To date, 32 teams are entered in Class A and 19 in Class B. Entries are also being turned in late at the intramural office. Play in the 32-team Class A league of four divisions and the Class B tournament begins Wednesday night and will continue for 10 to 12 weeks. Division placements and schedules will be released Monday. Class B will be conducted as a single-elimination tournament. B teams eliminated in the first round will enter the consolation bracket, assuring each B sound of playing at least two games. The 112 games to be played in Class A and additional Class B games are scheduled late at night, beginning at 9:30. Friday nights beginning at 7 and Saturday afternoons. Varsity cagers, now practicing at 5:30 Tuesday and Thursday, may begin working out at 3:30 Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Under this setup, intramural basketball would have Robinson courts for games every evening. ALLEN WARM TO 12-FOOT BASKET Phog Allen, in support of 12-foot baskets as an equalizer for big men, reports that "80 per cent of fouls are made around the short basket, owing to congestion." The little man almost necessarily has to "chop the big man down to keep him from running his scoring totals into the dozens." Another alternative supported by Allen is raising the value of field goals from two to three points. "Two free throws were never regarded as the equivalent of one field goal by Dr. James Naismith, inventor of the game. Too many games (52 per cent) are won on free throws." Company Basketball Succeeds Under KU Grad "Why not a company basketball squad to stir up a little enthusiasm among the gang around the plant?" Kenneth S. "Boots" Adams, employee of an oil company in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, asked Frank Phillips, president of the company, about two decades ago. Thus was formed the first Phillips cage team, according to an article by A! Wesson in Es6. Thus was formed the first an article by Al Wesson in Esquire, that has been one of the leaders in the rapid growth of industrial basketball. "Boots" was a court star at the University before he took a warehouse job about 1920. Now he is president and five other members of that first squad of his are top executives in the firm. "Our players receive the usual beginning salary for the position for which they are hired, work the same number of hours as other employees and practice on their own time. Adams says. Howard Engleman, Fred Pralle LAWRENCE Business College Lawrence, Kansas.

The present double round-robin schedule is satisfactory to the cage coaches. Suggestions have been made that Big Six schools play doubleheaders to cut down on road trips. Coaches said this would have caused cancelation of many scheduled games. Adoption of this proposal would also automatically make freshmen eligible for track in the spring and football thereafter for the duration of the war. Coed Commando ★★★ Rather Tough Running a modified obstacle course is the Friday program for women in the physical conditioning course. Piano benches and table tennis tables serve as tunnels through which they crawl. They hurdle booms and horses. They run up steps three feet high and jump off. Backing down balance beams is required as well as going frontward. Swinging from their hands, they go the length of the horizontal ladder. Miss Jean Bliss of the department of physical education said that the course will be coordinated and made more difficult within a few weeks. Christmas Is Coming And The Shopping Rush Is On ioned examples of the business-minded type of athlete that the firm attracts. Under the leadership like this, industrial basketball has made considerable advances. With the draining of college material by the armed forces and the lack of time in most training camps to be devoted to big-time athletics, the industrial game may be expected to boom during the next few years.

WIEDEMANN'S GRILL Board Considering Several War Changes BY MILO FARNETI Kansas Sports Editor With only a little more than $20, 000 to be received for the year from More Cuts Coming Resignation yesterday of Vic Hurt, for four years assistant football coach, paves the way for more economy cuts by the Athletic board. Hurt said that he did not ask for renewal of his $6,000 yearly contract, expiring January 1, because of the low status of the athletic treasury and poor drawing power of Javhawk football. Aggies Look Strong In Season Opener Against Doan-50-32 The Athletic board, composed of faculty members, alumni and one student, meets on the Hill tomorrow night to discuss the general athletic situation and advise Prof. W. W. Davis on the policy it wishes him to follow at the Big Six faculty representative meeting at Kansas City Friday and Saturday. Henry Only Coach Remaining Playing under new Coach Chilli Cochrane, the veteran Wildcats looked like Big Six contenders. Bruce Holman, Fred Kohl, and Marlo Dirks led the scoring. Hurt's resignation leaves Gwinn Henry as the only coach on the football staff. The probability that college enlisted reserves may be called before September and expectation of small crowds for football games, if played at all, may make a rearrangement necessary in the veteran athletic director's $7,000 contract that expires in the summer of 1943. Yearly salaries of Henry, Hurt, F. C. Allen, Bill Hargiss and Wayne Replogle, who has gone to the navy, total approximately $25,000.

Outdoor track will be reduced and telegraphic meets, involving no travel, may be the main fare. Maybe Hargiss or Shenk If football is played here next season (no accurate decision can be made until the standing of college enlisted reserves is cleared and transportation rulings are decreed by the Office of Defense Transportation), there is a possibility of utilizing Bill Hargiss, if he remains. Another possibility is Henry Shenk, coach at Junction City before he joined the department of physical education. Hargiss, released as head football coach in 1932, and former professor of physical education, is also being considered as an addition to the undermanned physical education staff. He receives about $3,500 as track coach. R. R. Strait, recently acquired instructor, expects to be drafted in the near future, cutting the staff down to Dr. Allen, head of department and Shenk.

Zilch, local department graduate in '82, in time for the annual Zilch Day dinner on December 22. Zilch, although fairly well a the world's events as his friends see them and tell him about them. It is believed by eminent authorities that Zilch is at this moment somewhere in the vicinity of Guadalcanal. He was recently reported in Tokio by the Aggravated Press association, at which time he stated that he thought he would run over to "Guad." This was taken as a sign that he would go to the Guadalcanal fighting zone. While in Tokyo, the Aggravated Press reports, Zilch was given the death penalty for giving Emperor Hirohito a hot-foot during a game of gin-rummy. Zilch was disguised (ingeniously) as a bar-maid. He, however, escaped to the second front in Africa where he gained quite a reputation as being able to Roman-ride two tanks at once. "Glue-feet" Zilch, the doughboys called him—and they loved him like a brother. Kansan Dragnet In Operation All available Kansan reporters and news and editorial officials worked far into the night yesterday trying to locate Mr. Zilch. Portable telegraph, radio and television sets were erected and signals were flung to the far corners of the earth until daybreak. The frantic messages were picked up and acknowledged twice during the night. The first was acknowledged by a sentinel of the Gooch cannibals in South Africa and the second was caught by a band of Boy Scouts out on an all-night bender somewhere in the hills of Arkansas. Both parties were personally acquainted with Zilch and forwarded the messages into more inner regions. The only resemblance to a reply to the desperate signals through the night came at 4:53 this morning; a tom-tom, somewhere in the far distance, rolled out (in morse code) the word "Burp." Elisha Rummage Museum Zilch Dynamites Museum This may or may not have been one of the practical jokes of the great man Zilch. While on the Hill he was known not only for his brilliant literary masterpieces but for his very humorous practical jokes as well. It is printed in the dusty annals of the University that young Elmer, in the spirit of fun, once dynamited the school museum because it "smelled like a fish market." When reprimanded for his explosive act, Elmer (like the little man he had the reputation of being) dug down into his left shoe and tossed a wad of bills on the Chancellor's desk—encough for five new museums. Listening posts in the "shack" are manned day and night in hope that a readable message will come through from the beloved Zileh. CVC Organizes For University Blackout Cooperating with George W. Bradshaw, chairman of civilian defense in Lawrence, the Co-ed Volunteer Corps is establishing air raid wardens in organized houses containing university students. The wardens will meet with Mr. Bradshaw for instructions at 7:45 pm. Tuesday in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building. During the blackout on Dec. 14, each warden will be responsible for his house. All lights must be turned off or adequate protection provided at the windows. One duty of an air raid warden is to establish a refugee room in case of an air raid, preferably the basement. During a raid the warden patrols the building to inform occupants what to do. They should know how to extinguish incendiary bombs and act as fire wardens because during an air raid, the fire department is not available. CVC members will meet as a marching unit at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday. Pictures of the corps will be taken by Allen Crafton, professor of speech, to use in his motion picture, "K.U. in the War." Lt. Jean Sellers is asking for volunteers to help at the University health service during rush hours. The rush periods usually fall at the beginning and end of each semester. Closing of the WPA which was directed by order of President Roosevelt Friday, might possibly affect the University according to Raymond Nichols, Executive Secretary of the University. WPA Close May Halt Building It means that construction of the University may be halted. However, the work has been practically at a standstill for some time because of the scarcity of men available to work on the project. The Military Science building, started in March, 1941, is approximately 75 per cent completed. Between 15 and 20 persons are working on the project now. All of them live in Leavenworth and have to be transported to work every day. Workmen are now laying stone on the walls of the top floor of the structure. Steps have already been taken by University officials to attempt to have the status of the project changed so federal funds would be available to complete the project by contract. President Roosevelt's order will probably also affect the Kansas Geological Survey office at the University. Gustafson Dr. Treese Corrects Story Printed in Friday's Kansan 911 Mass.

Allen, chairman of the department of physical education, told of how students, inspired by a moral victory scored by the Kansas football team over the Nebraska squad in 1920, in their enthusiasm began a campaign that blossomed into the Memorial stadium-Union building drive. The building and stadium were to serve as a memorial to the University's dead in the first World War. Students Have No Voice In Disposal Of Facilities Of Union Building Under student direction that first drive was tremendously successful, and $200,000 was brought in from student contributors. The Jayhawks then began the task of soliciting among alumni, business men, and faculty members. Funds began to pour in from all over the world. Such tremendous figures as $33,000 were raised by students in a single week, and by 1923 the grand total had reached $960,000. Each fall the students returned to school and made additional contributions to the cause. Each fall still more former students were solicited for subscriptions. Time was taken from classes for physical labor upon the project, and the students and instructors worked hard and willingly. Finally in 1921 the stadium was begun. It was not until 1929 that the Union was built for the purpose of "enriching the lives and education of K.U. students by providing a recreational center for them." For nine years they had worked, and scrimped to contribute, and at last they had seen their efforts come to a successful conclusion. The cost of the building was met by cash gifts and pledges without any legislative appropriation, whatsoever. Then came World War II, and the students were told—not asked—that their sound-proof music room in the building would be converted into an officers' club. They were told that their lounge was to be used by Naval trainees. They were told they couldn't have dances in the ballroom during the week. And then finally they were told by Miss Hermina Zipple, director of the Union, that their Saturday night dances could not be held in the future. Increased Naval enrollment had forced an earlier breakfast hour, and there would not be time to replace furniture for the sailors' breakfast in the ballroom following the close of the dance. That's fine, Miss Zipple, but just whose building is it? Are the words—"Student Union"—misleading? Letter-Writing Emphasis Urged For English Department University departments not closely tied up with the nation's war efforts have made attempts to bring their courses more in line with the country's immediate needs. Some language courses have been slanted for their future value when the students will be over-seas in uniform, and other departments have taken similar steps. Among those College sections encountering the most difficulty in bringing their offerings into focus is the English department. "Mathematics instead of Chaucer" seems to be the 3 Just Wondering Why some of the ping pong and billiard tables are not moved from the abandoned game room in the Union building upstairs to the spacious men's lounge, where they could again be put to use by table tennis and pool addicts. trend. The University English department, therefore, should pass up no opportunity to bring its courses within the new war-need emphasis. Such an opportunity is presented by one of the war's more serious problems—service morale—for there is no superior method in the maintenance of this morale than correspondence with civilians at home. The rhetoric I course could be remodeled so that letter-writing, slanted to meet the service man's needs, would receive increased attention. If such material could not be added to the basic rhetoric, perhaps a new letter-writing course could be established. In it not only the elements of good correspondence, but also the fundamentals of wartime censorship and postal problems, could be studied. —M.B. Even now University English faculty members are seeking means to bring their department into line with the school's wartime program. A letter-writing course would seemingly offer them one of their best opportunities. Approximately one-third of the college men of the nation are in their eighteenth and nineteenth years, according to authorities.

Mr. Coldren thought Miss Betty Lou Perkins' article debunking men was vituperative, unwarranted. To give complete coverage to homo sapiens, Mr. Coldren was asked to write his opinion of campus women. By RALPH E. COLDREN The greatest fallacy of all times was committed by our good friend Bill Shakespeare when he wrote that women are soft, mild, pitiful, and flexible. Old Bill wrote some fine and fancy verse, but his knowledge of women—ugh! We can't condemn Shakespeare too severely for way back then; women were a bit different than we know them now. After all, there was no nineteenth amendment when Bill was a boy. The modern college woman is a complex being to be looked The modern college at (from a distance) with mixed portions of awe, fear, and sympathy. There are probably more "types" of women on a campus than any other place. Man to man: Have you ever called up a gal for a date and have the conversation go something like this? . . . . "Hello, Sue, this is Bill . . . . Are you going to be busy next Friday night? . . . . "Oh, I'd love to go with your Bill but . . . . "How about a date Saturday, March 23, 1943?" This type of girl is the scourge of the campus. She is suffering from a popularity complex, and unless she is dated up anywhere from three to six weeks in advance she feels that she is missing part of the higher education. Then there is the "simply too too" type—alias, "Bird Brain." She is usually on the outside looking in, SUNDAY ★ and nothing can be said about her that hasn't already been said. She's the type of girl a fellow wouldn't even wish off on his worst enemy. Ten minutes with her and you're tearing your hair and frothing at the mouth! To The Rece President of Alpha Psi Psi, president of Squill and Croll, chairman of the Mortum council, etc.-this girl is definitely a joiner and a "career woman."

Almost two thousand years ago another baby was born, a baby that barely escaped the wrath and sword of a pitiless ruler and grew into manhood to teach peace and forgiveness to all mankind. Partial to all, wicked and pious alike, this Man went the length and breadth of the land to show others how to love, how to forgive, and, above all, how to believe in the Great Savior. Yes, He was truly great, but He died the excruciating death of crucifixion. For what? For Christianity and for all the things for which it stands. Examine the nations of today: France is gone, crumbled within herself. Poland and Czechoslovakia have been swallowed by the dragon of the Swastika. The Greeks fell under the shell of the once-great Roman Empire, and are now starving, England, having withstood the hammer-blows of Hitler, is retaliating in kind. North and South America have sent their sons to all corners of the world to kill and be killed. Will they stop fighting, stop killing their fellow man, long enough to kneel and remember the most sacred of all birthdays? A moot question. Where are the Christian principles that Christ died for? Yes, where are they? They are right here, all about us, the Americans. We have but to look around, lift a leaf or two, and there they are, as ready for our acceptance as Christ was for the cross. We need merely to open our eyes to see the best defense program ever planned: Christianity. That tiny baby—he will not be threatened with early and horrible death. He need not cringe and be ashamed if his frail, warped body will never carry a gun. Nor will he die on the gory cross of legalized murder that modern warfare has become. He will live and grow as an American and a Christian. Student Will Have Law Trial Tomorrow The student trial, the case of Ara Bartholomew vs. Continental Casualty Company, will be held at 1:30 tomorrow in the courtroom of Green hall by the University School of Law.

Despite all this she is usually a fine sort of girl. "Will" Thackery was probably thinking of this last type when he penned. "Man is destined to be prey to women."

The Council has emphasized that it is not so much what has been done that provoked the resolution, but the way in which it was done. An editorial in Friday's Kansan explained more fully the Council's list of complaints. The committee's statement follows: "For the past several years, stua voice in decisions affecting students have been increasingly denied dent welfare. This curtailment of student democracy can only result in the eventual lowering of student morale and in the loss of student support of the University. "To prevent this, the special Committee of the Men's Student Council will go before the Chancellor early next week with a constructive proposal for active student participation in the government of the "The Committee is unfilching and in earnest.

Now, less than a year later, in compliance with a request of the Office of Civilian Defense, the employees are tearing down the symbolic "V." Dimout regulations ruled out lighting of the sign. War Stumps Go Dancing University of Wisconsin students and faculty members last week gave 600 pints of blood for American armed forces to the Red Cross Mobile Blood Unit.

Sooners Defend Yale Song War has affected a lot of things on its campus, but the University of Oklahoma still clings to Yale University's song, "Boola Boola," which it has renamed "Boomer Sooner." When President Joseph A. Brandt went to Oklahoma last fall from Princeton, where he directed the Princeton Press, he attempted to sound out opinion on changing from "Boomer Sooner" to a new, yet-unwritten tune. By way of an unfavorable response students began to sing "Boomer Sooner" in their rooming houses after dinner instead of eating their desserts and drinking coffee. The sports editor of the student newspaper even came to the rescue of the song by defending it in his personal column.

Students not yet 18 may enlist in V-1 without restrictions. No new enlistments except under above conditions." The preceding quotation was the substance of a telegram received by Dr. Laurence Woodruff, adviser on military affairs, from the naval authorities. A similar telegram was received from the army. Dr. Woodruff advised the students: "If any of them have made application with me or any enlistment officer on or before last Saturday, they can still complete their enlistments, provided they get the job done before Dec. 15." "In any case," said Dr. Woodruff, "students who feel that they have taken initial steps should see me." Dr. Woodruff estimated that several hundred students had already passed through his office since Saturday. "The phone started ringing about six o'clock Saturday evening," he said, "and it continued throughout the weekend." Captain W. A. Barrett of the army air corps enlistment board will continue on at Watkins Memorial hospital through tomorrow. Of 77 students who passed the mental examination when Capt. Barrett was here two weeks ago only 15 were sworn in. The remainder are being sworn in now. Thirty or forty students began enlistments and are continuing them. Werner Grieves ★★★ A Dog's Life Henry Werner, adviser of men continues to have his troubles. He has undertaken the job of reproducing photographs of the Jayhawk Nursery in England for a circular to be distributed to organized houses on the Hill. After toiling for hours in producing a good picture, his dog got hold of it and took it across the street to play with it with the neighbor's dog. The two proceeded to tear it up, until it looked, in Mr. Werner's words, "like a Kansan criticism of a premiere performance." It is not wrong to state that in the martial acts lie,the moral principles of our nation, Tokyo said recently via shortwave. If the dogs don't interfere again Mr. Werner hopes to have the circles out within three or four days. Fraternities To Initiate at Once Initiation of fraternity pledges will begin immediately as a result of the Inter-fraternity council meeting Sunday when it was decided to allow the initiation of pledges anytime after the eleventh week of the semester in which they were pledged. Council spokesmen explained that the decision was made so that pledges who will be called at the end of the semester will get a chance to be actives before leaving for the service and so that the active chapter strength may be bolstered. Most fraternities have been hit hard by the draft, council members believe that initiating pledges now will build up a reservoir of actives for the continuance of the chapter after the war. The bill as passed by the council stated that for the duration of war, any pledge may be initiated after the second week after the mid-semester, providing his grades are satisfactory and providing that he is passed by the active chapter. Several fraternities have already completed arrangements for pledge initiation, and the remainder are expected to follow soon.

K.U. Hospital Gets Grant For New Ward A Federal grant of $22,700 from the Federal Works agency for completion of the Children's ward at the University of Kansas Hospitals, in Kansas City, has been approved. Chancellor Deane W. Malott was advised today in a telegram from Senator Arthur Capper. Total cost for the completion and equipment has been estimated at $44,600, of which approximately $20,000 was appropriated by the last session of the Kansas legislature. Because of rapidly rising costs of building materials, this sum was found to be inadequate and application was made to the Federal Government through the offices of the FWA for funds to enable the completion of construction and equipment for the two wards. While the space has been designated as the Children's wards, the new hospital facilities will be used for the duration of the war to alleviate to some extent, the shortage of hospital rooms in the Kansas City area because of the huge increase of population occasioned by the influx of war production workers. ...

REDWOOD STOP RED VICTORY RED MAGENTA limited time — 1.00 each Weaver's PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS TUESDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1942 Jayhawk Jabberwock by Milo Farneti WHAT 1943 BRINGS Kansas will have a tough problem to face in September if football is played again. From present appearances athletic finances will start from scratch beginning with football. Although no deficit for this athletic year is expected, no funds will exist to finance football in 1943. Unless the University budget loosens and appropriates greater operating expenses, the number of football games played by KU will be reduced and road games cut. Jayhawker athletics are supported by: 4. Attendance receipts—activity and season tickets and individual sales sales. 2. Yearly University budget appropriation. 3. Alumni who finance athletes, carrying part of the load for the Athletic corporation. Alumni by paying tuition, lending athletes a "college education," and giving athletes jobs account for only a small part of the yearly expenditure for sports. Athletics at any large school are high finance. A conservative estimate places operational expenses here at $75,000. Football gate receipts, plus student activity book income, plus University budget appropriations, plus travel guarantees, usually provide other universities with a surplus (witness Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma). But Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma have all had bowl teams and regularly have placed excellent elevens on the gridiron. A team of the caliber of the Jayhawkers does not draw crowds either in Memorial stadium or on the road. Tire rationing and a poor team kept Jayhawker fans at home during 1942. Largest crowd was 5,000 for the Nebraska game. With gasoline rationing in effect now, attendance—the lifeblood of sports—will be decreased. University budget appropriations and activity fees cannot carry the whole load under the present system and are not expected to in 1943. No athletic fund surplus exists to support wartime sport at Kansas. So, you can expect dropping football for the duration or a reduced schedule—probably the latter if enough students return to KU in 1943. BETTER IN JANUARY Coach Phog Allen's current cagers gave one of their worst exhibitions of basketball in four years in the 40-29 loss to Gardner at Kansas City Saturday. The Jayhawkers hit only three of 38 first half shots and four of approximately 30 in the second half for a total of seven goals in nearly 70 attempts. Only once before in Dr. Allen's long memory has Kansas been so frigid. Playing against Oklahoma A-M when Ralph Miller, Rob Allen and Howard Engleman were sophomores, the Jayhawk- ers hit only five of 65 attempts in a 21-17 loss. The Jayhawkers won't be so inaccurate again in years. Although looking like they needed much more work together, Allen's quintet last night displayed power that should blossom before the Missouri game here January 6. Ray Evans worked at the vital center position last night while John Buescher ran at guard. Schedule Begins Tomorrow Intramural basketball makes its 1942-43 bow Wednesday night in four divisions of eight teams each with Phi Gamma Delta, Phi Kappa Psi, last year's finalists, Beta Theta Pi and Phi Delta Gamma ranking as pre-season favorites. Several independent and co-op teams, Templin, Hellhounds and Blanks, rank as top contenders in Divisions III-IV. Court restrictions this season require greater efficiency in playing games, Henry Shenk, intramural director said today. No games will be postponed this year. Also if a team is not ready to play when scheduled the game will be forfeited. If neither team shows up, both forfeit the game. This year's intramural basketball race should be up to the standards of former years and in some cases better because of the limiting of the number of teams from an organization. The Phi Gam's, champions for the last three years with Larry McSpadden, Wally-Curt Hinshaw, returning should have another contender this year. The Phi Psi's, with Dick Miler playing, rate as top contenders again. 1942-43 IM Race Opens WAA Will Initiate 21 New Members At Feed Thursday Initiation of 21 members of the Women's Athletic Association will take place at the hockey-volley ball feed for WAA members at 6 o'clock Thursday night in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building.

The enrollment this year is lighter, however, and the semester is not yet over. It is expected that more students will withdraw at the end of the semester. Dr. Woodruff pointed out that many of the students who had dropped out would have dropped out anyway in the ordinary course of events. There is always a decrease of several hundred in the enrollment in the second semester, he said. These figures may be compared with those of other colleges who have experienced sharp drops in the number of students enrolled, and large increases in the number of students who have dropped out in the middle of the semester, it was pointed out. Pan-American League To Meet Thursday The Student Pan-American League will hold its third session at 8 o'clock, Thursday night in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building. Antonio Lulli, president of the League, will continue with his discussion of the general background of South America in order to dispell the false impressions which the average North American student has of South America. Following the talk, a group discussion will be held. Quill Club Meets Thursday For a Business Session There will be a short business meeting of the Quill club in the Men's lounge of the Memorial Union building 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday. Pledging and Initiation will be discussed. Those who were not formally initiated last year are asked to be present. New pledges will be notified if their manuscripts are accepted. Manuscripts will be judged before the proposed initiation date which is De. 17. Aspirants and pledges may attend the meeting Thursday. Ice Cream ★★★ Flavors Slated For Change New and fruity flavors of ice cream and perhaps less of them to replace some of the old standbys will probably appear on the Hill during December and January because of the War Production board's recent order to commercial manufacturers of ice cream to curtail their output for those months to 60 per cent of the October production in order to conserve butterfat for butter. Ice cream fiendis will not have to suffer from inability to get their favorite food, however, or a lowering of quality standards because the WPB regards the product as a necessary food and the order provides that the formulas for its manufacture may not be changed although the coloring and flavoring may be. The order was issued as a temporary measure to help relieve, during December and January, the most critical butter shortage in ten years. A "more comprehensive order" will probably be issued later, Clyde E. Beardslee, chief of the WPB's dairy product section, said. Lovers of ice cream need not worry about a ban on ice cream in the future however because government officials said that they had no plans to suspend its manufacture. The WPB also pointed out that the actual reduction in output would be only about 20 per cent because the manufacture of ice cream during December and January is below that of October.

Beamer, professor of entomology, who received the results of the determination last week. The Anthomyidae is a family of flies to which belong such commonly known insects as the onion maggot, the cabbage maggot, and the spinach leaf miner. One hundred and fifteen of the kinds found are new to the Snow entomological collection, and therefore constitute a valuable addition to the collection, Professor Beamer said. The collection heretofore contained only 93 different kinds of the Anthomyidae.

Secretary Knox, giving the first complete and official picture of what happened to the main French fleet said that his statements were based on aerial reconnaissance made by United Nations fliers, apparently from new North African bases. The navy secretary also told his press conference, at which the disclosures were made, that four French submarines had escaped to neutral or Allied ports. The revelation by Secretary Knox indicated that sea and air forces of the United Nations ultimately may be called on to fight the former ships which remained intact.

At that time it was a stunned student body, for few had realized that the conflict was so near. Nor did many realize the changes which would take place in Campus life during that coming year. It's a different Campus today from that of December 8,1941. Then it was a lazy,pleasant place where young men and women acquired an education and, more than incidentally, had a good time.Today it is all business. Marching columns of singing sailors move down the streets. They were not here a year ago. Students work on obstacle courses which were unknown a year ago. New war courses have been added to the University curriculum. Reserve enlistments have increased by leaps and bounds. ROTC work has been carried on with new vigor and enthusiasm. The fellow who sat in the third row in geometry is gone. He's in the army, and many of his friends are in the navy, and still others in the marines. The services have called for educated men, and University students have answered that call generously. Even greater changes, however, can be expected during the next year. Few persons can predict with any confidence just what this University will be like on December 8,1943. Rumors,however,give us certain indications that are far from reassuring. It is likely that men in the army reserve are at present in their last semester of college work for the duration. Men in the other reserves may be fortunate enough to complete their spring semester. Continuance of their education after that date seems almost out of the question. Selective service has already begun its call on the 19-year-old men, and that demand will likely be stepped up as all three services now depend upon the draft for manpower. Older men have been granted certain exemptions, which cannot help but place a larger burden on the younger Americans. Latest rumor, entirely unverified at present, is that the ROTC will be called up within a period of two months. Before long, the only male students on the Campus may be the medics and certain engineering groups. They may be augmented by additional service men sent here for advanced training. That's a picture of the University student personnel as it might be December 8, 1943. "Business As Usual" Policy Wise for Male Student In at least one phase of college life—studying—the "business as usual" policy is the wise one for male students to follow. For many of them-almost certain to be called into the services within a few weeks or months-there is a temptation for a "last fling" at college fun, before cords are doffed for khaki. The "I'm being called into the army in January, so what's the difference" argument is a strong one to such students, but close examination will reveal that there is a very decided "difference." Just Wondering If the exodus of male students at the end of the present semester won't leave U "the Vassar of the Middle West." --tion will reveal that there is a very decided "difference." Many male students who will soon be off for the war plan to return to school with the coming of peace. A letup now might cause them to return to school under the handicap of facing a transcript blotted by poor grades incurred in the careless final semester before the call to colors. It is also not at all impossible that the War Department might consider plans to aid such students to return to school—that is, if their grades merit such assistance. A more immediate reason for the continuance of good schoolwork right up to the time of the service call is the fact that college grades may well be taken into consideration when selections are made for the officers' candidate schools. An F in algebra because of the failure to study for the final may very well result in the loss of an opportunity for a gold bar. The male student should therefore think twice before easing up in his school work. In "loafing," he is hurfing both himself and the nation's war effort.

When she came to the line "somewhere in Heaven you were fashioned for me," Virginia Hogan, who was listening, asked her to repeat it. Anna Mae sang the line over again. "Gee, I'm glad to hear that," Virginia sighed. "I always thought the line was 'somewhere in Heaven you were rationed for me.'" ***** Ralph Coldren, Sig Ep and writer for the Kansan, was asked which type of girl he preferred of the ones mentioned in his feature Sunday. "I don't go with any of them." Coldren retorted. Alan Houghton, fraternity brother of Coldren, looked up brightly. "Oh, Coldren?" he asked. "He goes with the 'too, too' type or 'birdbrain', because he wants mental supremacy, and that's the only way he can get it." *** Oliver Hughes, Sig Alph and clerk of the court, announced that Dean, Elizabeth Meguiar was on his list of parking violators. ***** My, the service around here is getting better! Joy Howland, Westminster hall, phoned to the dry cleaners to have a man pick up some clothes. Yesterday Joy and Hazel DeWald were talking in their room on second floor. Hazel had on her housecoat, and Joy was in her bare feet, having removed wet shoes and stockings. The girls suddenly noticed a strange voice. Turning, they saw a man at the door of their room. "Excuse me," he beg apologetically, "I'm from the cleaner's and I'm just new here. Could you show me how to get around?" ***** By way of the grapevine comes the startling news that something stupendous, gigantic, super-colossal and such is brewing for a huge New Years Eve party!!! Rumor has it that it will exceed the wildest expectations of even the least cynical students. **** Hoyt Baker, Delt and football player, was worrying over nothing last weekend. Baker came home Friday all set to entertain the rushees that were soon to descend upon the house. On the table in the hall, Baker found a special delivery to Willis Baker. Being the only Baker in the house, Hoyt opened the letter. The letter was an invitation to the Alpha Chi nightshirt party that night from Nancy Reed. Baker anxiously looked for a picture of her, but was unable to find one. Hoyt spent the next two hours trying to find Nancy a date, since he was unable to go himself. As he was approaching a nervous breakdown, Harold Goss came in and heard him. Goss quietly calmed Baker down and informed him that Willis Baker was a rushee from his home town. $$ --- $$ The Delta Gamma's are puzzled. The girls received a letter the other day which read something like this: "We have been trying to break down the wall of static resistance over there. We have tried every method, but now we are disgusted. We voted by secret ballot to turn to a group of other fair girls. We will return to plague you later, however." The letter was signed, "The Four Crowes." The Delta Gamma's, although ignorant of the authors, are working on an answer. SITE BY FRASER Earthworks on Oread First 'Fort' By ALAN B. HOUGHTON Had it not been for William Clarke Quantrill and his band of border renegades, there never would have been any fortifications atop the east edge of Mt. Oread at a spot now marked with an 18 by 24-inch slab on which is engraven: "Site of Barracks and Trenches, 1863." This marker rests near the east drive of Fraser just a few feet south of the walk leading from that building. It was shortly after Quantrill's attempt to destroy Lawrence (in those days an anti-slavery stronghold) on Aug.21, It was shortly after Quam rence (in those days an anti-si 1863, that the barracks and trenches were built on Oread to protect the town. In his "Pioneer Days in Kansas," Richard Cordley relates: "About October, 1863, the military authorities sent two companies of regulars for the protection of Lawrence, and they remained there till the close of the war." "They threw up earthworks on the hill overlooking the town and placed there several pieces of artillery. These troops were under the command of Major E. G.

Buchele. He uses a quotation from his brother in New Guinea. In this quotation his brother wishes that he could have the "old times" back, the times when he was enjoying such pleasures as ice skating, which he did shortly before leaving for overseas duty. In our opinion, he would be most selfish and narrow-minded if he were to deny us the chance for one last good time about which we may reminisce, when we are in a similar position. We are both in one of the reserve corps, and there are hundreds of students on the Hill who are in a similar position. It does indeed seem likely that this will be our last chance for a Christmas at home, or any other time at home, if our noses are to be held so close to the "grindstone." Frankly, Mr. Buchele, we do not believe that you considered the angles which we have mentioned when you wrote your letter in the Daily Kansan, Dec. 1. We also have relatives on the fighting fronts, and one of us lest one of his best friends at Pearl Harbor, but even under those circumstances we still maintain that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." Also, a short rest from our studies would be justifiable in that our work would be much better done during the remaining few weeks of the semester. Being in the enlisted reserves, the soie purpose of our being left here is to get as much out of our studies as possible. If vacation will help us get more out of our studies, then we will be accomplishing that purpose with a greater degree of success. Instead of adopting the motto "VICTORY THEN VACATION," why not adopt instead the motto "VACATION FOR VICTORY?" A COLLEGE SENIOR A FINE ARTS SOPHOMORE Dear Editor: Deeming it advisable that some attempt be made to present a resume of student reasoning in opposition to our abbreviated vacation, we would like to do this now through the Kansan. First, it is certainly obvious that the administration of the Naval Academy at Annapolis is more competent to prescribe the vacations of potential officer-material than is the administration of a middlewestern university. They have seen fit to grant the Annapolis Cadets a 15-day vacation. Second, one of the purposes of vacations in peacetime is to improve the efficiency of students' work upon returning. Certainly efficiency is more important now than in peacetime. Third, since many of our men students are the soldiers and sailors of the immediate future, this winter may offer their last opportunity for a Christmas with their loved ones. Fourth, officials whose business it is to handle the transportation problem have decreed that in order to avoid the congestion of transportation facilities, it is necessary to lengthen the vacations of college students. What benefit is to be derived from would-be patriotic gestures which fail to benefit the war effort; which succeed in damaging the morale of our future fighting men; which are directly contrary to expressed recommendation of the transportation officials? NAMES WITHHELD. Naval Reservists Meet Tomorrow in Marvin There will be a meeting of all the naval reservists tomorrow evening from 8 to 9 in the auditorium of Marvin hall, Dell Perry, chairman of the organization announced today. Plans are to have a showing of the movie, "Menace of the Rising Sun" and a talk on "Security" given by some representative of the naval station here on the Hill. Ferry urges that all V-1, V-5, V-7, and HVP men attend this meeting. He stated that this was the first of a series of indoctrinational programs that will be given the reservists.

Lin Defends India's Fight for Freedom "India is helping in the fight for liberty and democracy but does not have them," commented Philip Lin, of China, in his remarks preliminary to a group discussion of India at the meeting of the International Relations club Thursday evening in the Memorial Union building. "The people of India," he continued, "are peace-loving, freedom-loving, and democracy-loving just as we are. They, as much as we, deserve freedom and democracy." "The statements in the Atlantic Charter are good," observed Lin, "but we remember Winston Churchill's recent words to the effect that he has no intention of presiding at the liquidation of the British Empire. We must remember too, that India was told that she could have independence if she would help win the World War I. When she did not receive that independence, there was violence." At the conclusion of these remarks various possible solutions to the India problem were discussed by the fifteen members present. The organization planned to hold its next meeting on Dec. 17. SITE BY FRASER---n't there; so I guess he didn't turn off." (continued from page six) Lawrence when those troops came in" The Earthworks which were erected were circular trench-like affairs about five feet high, and the barracks resembled block houses. The Mt. Oread which bristled with these defenses was not the luxuriantly, arbored campus that we know today. Trenches on Lilac Lane One writer, described it thus: "In its primitive state, the hill was not a thing of beauty. It was entirely desisture of trees, and its barren surface was so suggestive of desolation that travelers passing it a century ago applied to it such epithets as the 'Hogback' or the 'Devil's Backbone.'" Long after the barracks had been removed, evidence of the trenches remained along Lilac Lane on the east brow of the campus. However, it wasn't till Dec. 4, 1908, that a marker (along with 25 others designating historical spots in Lawrence) was dedicated to the fort which was built but a few weeks too late to prevent Quantrill's massacre.

Judge P. W. Viesselman presided, and Jack McCarty, senior, served as clerk of the court. Robert Miller and Curtis Burton represented Mrs. Bartholomew; and the insurance company's case was handled by $ ^{\textcircled{4}}$ J. B. Malone and Charles Case. Jury members were Herbert Peterson, foreman, Jeanne Spencer, Kenneth Larkins, John Anderson, Roland Gidney and Robert E. Little, all members of the freshman law class. MacGregor On The Stand The first testimony was from the widow, Mrs. Bartholomew (Comora MacGregor) who told the jury that with her four children she was visiting her Aunt Minnie in Baldwin when the Topeka agent for the insurance company contacted her husband and induced him to sign the release for $390. (This occurred after the locomotive accident between Eudora and De Soto in which the deceased, an engineer, had been injured and after which the plaintiff maintained he became insane. The plaintiff held that Bartholomew was insane at the time of signing the release; i. e., at the time of the Topeka agent's call, whereas the defendant held that the man did not become insane until later, and, moreover, that his accident was due to negligence in obeying orders.) Rube Morris, an old friend of the family, (John Somers) testified next. He assured the jury that Bartholomew had been acting "queer" when the two bowled together as they did "about every night." James Borders as Sol Levitkovitz, the locomotive fireman, next testified. His testimony indicated Bartholomew had been acting against orders as he did not turn off at the approach of the train coming from the opposite direction. "I looked around," the witness reported, "and he wasn't there; so I guess he didn't turn off." Paper Mill Representative Interviews Chem Students Dr. C. A. Fisher, Lawrence practitioneer, played by James McClure, sophomore in the School of Medicine, next testified that Bartholomew had seemed "queer" to him. Edward Todd, who was graduated from the University in 1918, and now a representative of the Paper Chemistry Institute at Appleton. Wis., was in Lawrence Friday interviewing Chemistry students interested in the institute and the field of pulp and paper technology. Mr. Todd showed 800 feet of film picturing the institute and its work at a meeting Friday in Bailey laboratories. The film also included scenes from a recent trip through the forests of Wisconsin, the institute's source of supply of wood pulp for making paper.

Chase, claim agent for the insurance company (Bob Barton) and Dr. Harry Stelle of Kansas City, medical advisor for the Santa Fe Railroad whose testimony was given by Art Robinson, sophomore in the School of Medicine. Chase asserted that Bartholomew admitted he had acted against orders and felt that he was getting more than a good deal to settle for $390. The doctor, a brain specialist, asserted that at the time of signing the release the engineer had been perfectly sane. Final arguments to the jury were presented by both attorneys for the plaintiff and by Chase for the defendant. ROBERTS' Jewelry and Gift Shop 833 Mass.

To meet the shortage of trainee workers the School of Social Work at the University of Minnesota had added an accelerated program to provide training for students to work as social service aides. Social workers having been drained from civilian work into Red Cross service and other wartime fields necessates the accelerated course.

Geologists Write Of State Resources The annual petroleum edition of the Mines Magazine for October, 1942. contains a feature article "Oil and Gas Fields of Kansas," by Raymond C. Moore and John M. Jewett of the Kansas Geological Survey. The article includes historical data on oil and gas discovery and development in Kansas and a discussion of the chief geological features of Kansas bearing on oil and gas developments. It is pointed out that the fuel resources in the Hugoton gas area exceed the energy of 1,000 billion tons of anthracite coal—500 years production from the Pennsylvania fields. It is also explained that in terms of anthracite tons this energy can be produced at only about 12 cents per ton. The Mines Magazine is the official organ of the Colorado School of Mines Alumni Association. Klayder Recounts War Experiences To Pharmacy Club Sgt. Reuben Klayder, graduate of the School of Pharmacy in 1941, now a pharmacist in the army medical corps, recounted his experiences aboard the Manila when Pearl Harbor was bombed, Friday at the pharmacy club meeting. The Manila left San Francisco Dec. 5, 1941. Reuben said that on Dec. 7 their radios were taken from them and they lost contact with the outside world, and, also sense of directon. Next day, when they were out of danger, they were told that Pearl Harbor had been bombed. There was no reaction because most of the men had been expecting such an occurrence, but all were very glad to see the United States again. He has been in the United States since then. While on K. P. Duty at Angel Island, Cal., he was one of 75 cooks for 2000 men. He said that was double-duty cooking. Getting off the train at Washington, D. C., Ruebens saw demonstrations of how the army places men. The company was divided with no discrimination. He landed in a ski troop where he soon became first aid man for the numerous broken bones the ski troops received. At present he is stationed in Washington, D. C., where his unit fills 100 prescriptions a day.

Council Negotiations Prove 'Satisfactory' Negotiations with Men's Student Council representatives concerning differences existing between the administration and the governing body are "going very satisfactorily," Chancellor Deane W.

However, Bob White, chairman of the MSC committee conferring with the chancellor said, "The council is still in office; Government Orders Canned Foods Cut CLOSING HOURS The list of food stuff which will not be available for civilian consumption in tin cans includes peas, carrots, apple sauce, sauerkraut, and such. Washington, (INS) — The War Production Board today ordered a cut of from 46 to 33 pounds in the annual per capita consumption of canned goods by American civilians, as it revealed that the entire output of the number of food commodities packed in tin cans during 1943 would be set aside for military and lend-lease purposes. Closing hours for women will be at 9:50 p. m. Monday, Dec. 14. Marge Rader, President, WSGA the committee is still active. No satisfactory solution has been reached, however, negotiations are still in progress. We're working on a plan for student participation in those affairs directly affecting students and in which their opinion would contribute to the welfare of the University as well as to their own well-being. The committee maintains the hope that a favorable report will be given to the Council Monday night on this negotiation." White added that no definite meeting with the chancellor has been arranged, Mr. Malott expressing himself willing to meet with the committee whenever they wish. WSGA and Jay James to Back MSC These statements were made today, two days after a 90-minute conference took place Tuesday in the chancellor's office.

MSC, MALOTT--- The WSGA Council in its regular meeting Tuesday night voted to support the MSC in the request that some workable plan of active student government be established. Yesterday afternoon Jay Janes took a similar step, voting unanimously their support of the MSC in its fight for student government. Within a week the MSC is expecting to align other prominent Hill organizations to vote their approval and support of the Council's move to insure student government at the University. In presenting his answer to the accusation by the Council of curtailing the rights of student government, Chancellor Malott said that he is always glad to see any student, MSC member or not, to discuss his problems with him. "In a University this size it is almost inevitable that this student contact will have to be made at the initiative of the students—an initiative which the council has not always taken in the past," he asserted.

Sailors March, Sing Though Away From Home and Friends Singing in the rain-or snow-the sailors here vocalize in all kinds of weather. They sound happy as they march along rhythmically to the song. The sailors are happy even though they are miles, maybe hundreds of miles away from home and friends. They are under strict discipline, apart from family and friends, in a new geographical location, and with the reputation of a uniform. Yet they are singing. The first day of the snow, a group of three sailors met. One said, "How do you like this Michigan weather?" The second inquired, "Does the Minnesota snow suit you?" and the third replied, "Why, this a good old Indiana snow." Men from every part of the country are here in the machinists mates school. Nearly everything in Lawrence is new to them. They have to adjust themselves even more than freshmen do. Yet they can sing.

PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS HURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1942 Allen Shakes Up Jayhawks Jayhawk abberwock by Milo Farneti BLACK ON INDEFINITE LEAVE OF ABSENCE More complications have arisen for the basketballing Jayhawkers this week. Bill Brill is now in Watkins hospital recovering from a knee injury suffered Monday night and Charlie Black was fired off the squad by Phog Allen Tuesday for "insubordination and lack of interest." Negotiations for Black's return aren't getting very far yet but it appears that apologies all around might help Charlie. Black likes basketball too much to sit on the sidelines and Kansas would field a weaker quintet with the big junior missing. Back in 1936 Dr. Allen jerked son Milt from the starting lineup for "pushing Paul Rogers around" the night before a championship game with Nebraska. Just last season Red Ettinger was thumbed out and later reinstated $$ ***** $$ EVANS FOOTBALL RECAP While Ray Evans is busy working out his "football muscles" for basketball, all-star jugglers are ranking him with the backs in the country. He has been named on the Associated Press and Kansas City Star Big Six elevens and the Iowa Seahawks considered Evans, along with Paul Saringhaus and Gene Fekete of Ohio State, Bill Saban of Indiana and Bill Daley of Minnesota, the winner, in their most valuable player poll. The Kansas City junior led the nation in pass completions with 101 for 1,113 yards. His passing may have gained sufficient notice to place him on one of the AP's all-American teams to be named Saturday. $$ $$ FRESHMAN RED LIGHT Freshmen might as well kill hopes of playing Big Six basketball this season, if past performances of faculty representatives are any indication of the future. Yesterday the Big Ten tabled a motion to allow freshman play. The Big Six, to the disgust of some and the applause of others, is a careful imitator of the Big Ten. So, freshmen should not have high hopes, even though most of them realize they won't be in school in September. $$ --- $$ COEDS ARE FAIR CAGERS The uninitiated who scoff at women's basketball may present themselves for dunking in Potter lake. Tuesday night the Kappa's and Alpha Chi's fought a 20-20 draw that had as intense a player-spectator interest as any varsity or men's intramural game. Perhaps the women don't always play with such tigerish skill but this game hit the jackpot for close finishes. $$ ***** $$ JABBERWOCK Lts. T. P. Hunter (marines) and John Pfitsch (army) were visiting this week before transferring to San Diego and Texas respectively. Hunter saved several basketball games for Kansas in his three years here and Pfitsch was a star intramural athlete. .

The Southeastern conference is discussing a football demise for the duration. * * * * * SKYSCRAPER NOTES Henry Iba has taken 7-foot Bob Kurland on an Eastern tour with the Oklahoma Aggies. Iba uses Kurland as goal tender. The "mezzanine peeping ton" deflects the ball easily. Eastern coaches will probably want to shoot Kurland after a few exhibitions of the balloon barrage.

Coach F. C. Allen has conducted a shakeup of his squad since the loss to Gardner Saturday. Not a player has been spared. Purpose is to find a scoring combination that will chalk up a better performance than Saturday's, which was disappointing to cage fans. Early experiments saw Ray Evans moved to the quarterback post, with John Buescher an excellent long shot, taking his place at guard. Further changes were necessary after Bill Brill, sophomore who had won a regular place on the starting five, wrenched his knee Monday. Buescher is now back at quarterback. Charlie Black is now on the sidelines for "insubordination." Two sophomores, Armand Dixon and Otto Schnellbacher, are slated to start in the contest with the Hawks. Dixon is a smooth ball-handler and a good defensive player, while Schnellbacher has been developing his scoring. The rapid improvement of Bob Fitzpatrick, junior letterman, has earned him a starting berth. First replacements for the Jayhawkers will be Jack Ballard, Paul Turner, Max Kissell and John Short. Will Discuss Athletic Problems Big Six faculty athletic representatives and athletic directors will meet tomorrow and Saturday in Kansas City in their regular winter meetings. Among the problems to be discussed are the participation this winter of freshmen in conference basketball contests, and the future of conference football. Strong Beta's Meet Delta Tau Tonight TONIGHT 9:30—Delta Tau Delta vs. Beta Theta Pi. —Sigma Phi Epsilon vs. Tau Kappa Epsilon. 10:30—Ramblers vs. Jayhawk Co-op. —Templin hall vs. Battenfeld hall.

Crawford in addition to leading the scoring played a fine defense game. Louis McCormick and Bill Mathews added nine points each to the Pi K. A. cause. —Templin hall vs. Battenfeld hall. Pacing the Beta attack will be Harlan Altman and Bennett, two members of last year's second string all-star team.

In a one-sided game last night Corbin defeated Alpha Delta Pi 36-14. Mildred Wells played a consistently good game, netting 15 points. Another outstanding Corbin forward, Betty Bown, made six field goals. Phyllis Struble and Mary Lee Chapple again proved their worth as guards. Eleven of the 14 Alpha Delta Pi points were made by Thelma Stutz, the other three by Jeanne Haycock. Kappa's-Alpha Chi's Tie Kappa Kappa Gamma and Alpha Chi Omega tied 20-20 Tuesday. The Alpha Chi's ended the first half with a seven-point lead over their opponents, but were unable to hit the basket in the last half. Margaret Butler led the Kappa offensive with 12 points, while Nancy Robertson shone at guard. Beverly Waters, forward, and Peggy Miller, guard were the backbone of the Alpha Chi Omega team. Although the Pi Phi's had the ball most of the time the Delta Gamma's won 10 to 7. All of the Pi Phi forwards were "cold on the basket." Outstanding Pi Phi's were Jill Peck, Betty Carey, and Barbara Winn. Nine of the 10 points netted by the Delta Gamma's were chalked up to Lela Nell Marks. Betty Van Blarcom and Mary Ann Gray also played well. Watkins Defeats Miller The hard-fighting Watkins team defeated Miller hall 20 - 8. Miller held Watkins 6-4 the first half, but afterward its defense loosened. Althea Shuss and Violet Conard starred on Watkin's team. Outstanding players on Miller's team were Ruth Shepard and Frances Gillman. The last game of the second round of the women's basketball tournament between Gamma Phi Beta and Kappa Alpha Theta will be played next week. ... — BUY WAR STAMPS ... — Color Film Will Be Shown At Pharmacy Club Meeting "Immunization Against Infectious Diseases" will be the subject of a three-reel film in color which will be shown the Pharmacy club in Bailey laboratories, at 11:30 Friday.

PAGE SIX UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1942 The Editorial Page Chancellor Malott Answers Charges In Student Council Resolution Previously on this page the Daily Kansan has carried an explanation of the resolution recently passed by the Men's Student Council demanding a clarification of their powers. At the request of the editor, Chancellor Deane W. Malott, following discussions with MSC representatives, has prepared the following statement on the resolution. It is perhaps unfortunate that the Men's Student Council has had so little contact with the University's administration. Most of the matters covered in the resolution had never been discussed by any Council member with me or other administrative officers concerned. I hope both the members of the Council and all other students will realize that I am always glad to discuss problems with them, and shall always make time available to see students. In a University of this size it is almost inevitable that this student contact be at the initiative of the students, an initiative which the Council has not always taken in the past. I in common with the faculty deplore the necessity for the shortening of the vacation. This action, taken by the University Senate, which has sole and complete jurisdiction over such matters, was designed to provide a third sixteen-week semester in the year, between approximately May 20 and September 10, in the interests of students trying to get as far along with their education as possible. Fixing the calendar is a responsibility customarily assumed by the faculty in all universities. There was some reference to control over activity fees. The Board of Regents by law is responsible for setting fees. The expenditure of those fees is the responsibility of the administration, specifically delegated by the Board two years ago in the case of the activity fee. The misunderstanding regarding parking tickets is of uncertain origin, but was settled a month ago upon inquiry to me from one of the members of the Student Court, whom I told to follow the Student Council's parking bill provisions. . . . In regard to the freedom of the press, it must be clear to even the most casual reader of the Kansan that it is perfectly free to, and does, criticize the administration, as well as the Council, upon sundry and diverse occasions. The Joint Committee on Student Affairs—a committee of students and faculty—apparently went out by default several years ago. I stand ready and willing to reinstitute such a committee on any basis the Council sees fit. . . I hope the Council will take immediate action in appointing its membership in such a group. I have told the Council that the Administration of the University will cooperate with the Council in any feasible way, as it is already doing with numerous other groups with student representation. Some aspects of responsibility for the University's operation and activities lie with the Regents, some with the faculty, some with the administrators, and some with the students. Each of these groups of individuals is acting at all times in the students' behalf, but is doing so in a university disorganized and accelerated by the war,—a fact which must inevitably take precedence in all our decisions and actions. The North Carolina Daily Tar Heel predicts great success for the new song hit—"Is It Love or Draft Evasion?" --- Just Wondering If the decision of University athletic authorities to support the movement for freshman competition in conference basketball this winter won't be a case of cutting our own throats, since the Oklahoma crop of first-year men seems to be far superior to ours. Unpatriotic Americans Fall Gas rationing has become a reality, and how are Americans taking it? Some of them have realized the necessity of the government taking this step and are willingly complying with the regulations. Others, however, have not only exercised your right of "free speech" by complaining, but have gone so far as to violate rationing rules. In Oklahoma some drivers have refused outright to register for gas books. Some Texans drove over to Mexico, registered their cars, and by paying $180 in duties, obtained Mexican tires and gasoline. Such records are certainly nothing to boast of. They smack of ignorance, and disregard for the outcome of the war. The man who cannot share his discomforts like his neighbors is inviting military defeat for the entire nation. Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. will offer Lawrence residents their last opportunity to register for gasoline rationing at the Community building. Every student driver, who has not already done so, should take care that he register, and not be listed among those "indifferent" to the national welfare.-P.B.B.

I am seldom that I question the authenticity of any reports in the Kansan. However, in view of the heated discussion of our Christmas vacation, I have found it necessary to doubt the statement that Annapolis Naval Cadets have been granted a fifteen day leave at Christmas time. My brother is now in the Naval Academy at Annapolis and he recently reiterated a statement that they will have only a three-day Christmas leave. He would very much like to come back to Kansas and spend the holiday at home, but the short time will not permit it. The intensified study permits little time for a vacation there. ★ I would gladly welcome a longer Christmas vacation also, but in presenting the arguments for it, I think the real facts should be kept straight. A FRESHMAN ENGINEER Editor's Note: On Nov. 19 the Kansan sent a telegram to the office of the commandant of the Annapolis academy which read as follows: "Please advise collect concerning length of Academy Christmas vacation." That same day an answering telegram was received reading: "Your telegram answer fifteen days." The telegram was signed by Felix Johnson, executive secretary to the commandant.

Hertzler Takes Verbal Blast At Medic Profs "Medicine is an art rather than a science," Dr. Arthur E. Hertzler, world-famous as the "horse and buggy" doctor of Halstead, Kans., told a group of medical students and faculty members at a dinner last night in the Kansas room of the Union building. The dinner was given by the sophomore class of the School of Medicine. Guests included the freshman class of the School of Medicine and the Lawrence faculty members. Dr. Hertzler, who was chief speaker of the evening, took verbal blasts at the universities for placing andue emphasis upon the science rather than the art of medicine. "The science of medicine never touches the vast majority of medical practitioners," he stated. "What medicine needs is not science but character." The surgeon, now in his forty ninth year of practice in the medical profession, compared university teachers to preachers. "Both are trying to teach something for which there is no market and about which they know nothing," he declared. Dr. Hertzler told the students that not until they can get away from their last professor will they be able to "find out whether they have any brains or not." Dr. H. R. Wahl, dean of the School of Medicine, spoke briefly to the medics concerning present plans of the school in regard to students. He said that, according to information received from Washington, members of the army reserve corps on inactive duty, including medical students in the army medical reserve, cannot wear uniforms.

Dr. Sherwool supported his statement by naming three comparatively recent medical discoveries. Sulpha drugs were first used to a great extent at Pearl Harbor.

No Coffee ★★★ Sleep and Diet Will Suffice ★ Probably the first thought that percolated through many a student's bean on hearing of the coffee scarcity was that the emergency could be met simply by diluting coffee with water. But those who experimented undoubtedly felt their taste buds revolting under the let-down. Restaurants and houses that tried this might have heard complaints such as the following: "My daily cup had no more body than a shadow, and less depth in taste than my gas tank." Another leads off with, "My morning cup, which really is my daily cup, had less aroma than a sponge and had a similar taste." The major consensus seems to be that the average coffee drinker prefers one good bracing cup of flavor a day instead of several cups of a spineless, weak-kneed concoction that couldn't convince any taste bud into believing it was a favorite drink. Tea For Finals One of two things will have to be done. Either we become tea totters or dring less coffee for the duration. No longer will coffee drinkers ask for fourths and fifths, but politely curb themselves after the first cup. Students will find it increasingly difficult when final week approaches, for coffee has long been a stamby for candle burners. Smoking might take the place of coffee for some, but the number it doesn't appeal to, will be forced to find a substitute. Some sound advice: eat more, apply yourself when studying and get a good eight hours sleep nightly, thus the coffee shortages will be solved.

Diplomatic notes have been exchanged, as each party realizes the value of the other. Perhaps by Saturday afternoon Black will again be a member of the Kansas squad after abruptly checking in and being checked out by Phog Tuesday night. The big junior's suit awaits him for practice Saturday. In any event, Charlie will not play against Rockhurst at Kansas City tonight. ★ TRANSFER HOME GAMES? Big Six faculty representatives and athletic directors, meeting at Kansas City today and tomorrow, are discussing the conference rule prohibiting removal of home games to large cities such as Kansas City, Oklahoma City, Des Moines, Wichita, St. Louis and Topeka. Small crowds attended Kansas, K-State, Iowa State games this season. With gas rationing on now, even smaller audiences will witness Big Six games if football is played next season. Schools situated like Kansas here in little Lawrence cannot support a full schedule if home games are played in Memorial stadium. Nebraska is the only school near a large population—Lincoln. Other conference members require larger crowds than attended games during 1942 to support college athletics. As a wartime measure, transferring some home games to larger cities might pull football through the war. ★ BEISSER LEADS CREIGHTON Creighton, Missouri Valley champion and one of the strongest teams in the country last season, still has 6 foot $6\frac{1}{2}$ inch Ed Beisser. The big pivot man will lead the Bluejays in Hoch auditorium Tuesday. Joe Loisel and Ralph Langer, regular forwards return. Star-playmaker Dick Nolan is now a medicine at Creighton, but he will not play as Creighton does not allow its busy medics to take time off from studies. Creighton meets the Gardner Clippers at Omaha Saturday. ★ TRAVEL BY PROXY Perhaps Phog Allen had the right angle when he accused the Big Ten of "political gesturing" when it announced a decreased travel schedule for Big Ten cage squads (Iowa University canceled its game here Dec. 21). About all the effect this policy has is that other schools are traveling to the home courts of Big Ten members instead of vice versa. "What difference does it make who does the traveling?" Phog might ask. Too, the Big Ten voted Tuesday to allow its grid teams to schedule 10 games, one more than last season. This doesn't look like scrimping. It adds up to the fact that football is the major sport, jingles the cash register, will be played by the Big Ten while other sports are reduced—a realistic attitude. Black Will Be Missing Starting Lineups: Kansas Fos. Rockhurst Fitzpatrick F Neilson Schneillbacher F Martel Buescher C Costello Evans G Muckenthaler Dixon G Kurash BY BILL PORTER Kansas will run into height, speed and experience against Rockhurst College in Kansas City's Municipal auditorium tonight minus Charlie Black. Rockhurst Coach Lew Lane has a crew of veterans who average well over six feet and he will throw everything he has against the favored Jayhawks in his opening game. Two Tall Forwards Starting at forward will be Rollie Nielson and Paul Martel, both six-footers. Martel is considered an adept ball-handler and an accurate shot, whereas Nielson was in the higher scoring brackets in the Naismith league last season. Two six foot five inch men have been fighting for the starting center post against Kansas, Jim Costello and Skinny Meyers. Costello, who played end on the Hawk grid eleven, has the edge. He has the necessary height to make him dangerous against the smaller Jayhawks. Lane Experiments Too Coach Lane, not to be outdone by Coach F. C. Allen, has done some shifting around of his own. Captain Gene Kurash has been put in a guard position after playing forward last season. Lane believes that his defensive ability will make him more valuable there. Other guard will be Buzz Muckenthaler, who almost hits the six and one-half foot mark. The Hawks' first line of reserves includes Ceranech, Johnny Mitchell, and Ed Sayers. Sayers is a former all-city choice from Ward high, and was a member of the Kansas frosh squad last year. Rockhurst went through a two-hour drill on the au-litorium floor yesterday. Oklahoma Ace Templin Wins in Late Rush TOMMY CALVIN Paul Heap, a guard on Oklahoma's co-champions last season, is back again for another crack at the Jayhawkers.

Crandall Controls Rebounds Crandall, shooting very little never connected for any points but his floor game was outstanding.

Despite his late start, Bennett managed to roll up 11 points to lead the Beta's in scoring. Hoy Baker scored 12 points and was the only thing the Delta Tau's, had to offer.

Quiet On War Front ★ ★ ★ By International News Service New shakeups in Adolph Hitler's high command and a report that Germany forsees a possibility of Italy's withdrawal from the war held the focus of international attention today in the absence of major changes on world battle fronts. Except for a heavy two prong Axis attack southwest of Tebourba in Tunisia in which Allied artillery flung half the enemy forces into retreat with considerable losses, continued patrol activity at El Aghella and steady fighting on the western front, there were few fresh war developments. But there was intense speculation over Hitler's action in dismissing Gen. Franz Helder as Chief of Staff of the German army and replacing him with Gen.

So far, however, Hill reservists have been told nothing, and the silence of Paul V. McNutt, new manpower overlord, has led to many speculative rumors as to when the reserves will be called. The only definite information to evolve this week concerning army-navy plans for college men has come from the American Council on Education, a board of independent educators headed by a former Kansas man, Dr. George Zook, which has been working with the government in setting up special training plans for American universities. A bulletin from the Council predicts that: 1. All army enlisted reserve corps and ROTC men will be called at the end of the present semester. 2. From this group, some will be selected for further training. 3. Those selected will be reassigned to selected colleges and universities to continue their college work with an emphasis on military subjects. Detailed Statement Coming A letter received by Chancellor Deane W. Malott, who today said that the ACE is followed with considerable confidence by educators from the president of a university in this area indicated, on the basis of Council statements, that the navy would use a similar plan for its V-1, V-5, and V-7 reservists, but that it would not take effect until after the spring semester. The ACE bulletin, which cannot be taken as final authority, inferred that a detailed statement would be made by government officials within two weeks. E. G. Williamson, dean of students at the University of Minnesota who acted as consultant at the recent ACE conferences in Washington last week told Minnesota students: 1. The army will not wait for all ROTC seniors to graduate. 2. The army air corps reserve will be treated the same as the enlisted reserve corps. 3. Reserve officers in dentistry and medicine will be in the army or navy taking specialized training in medical schools. 4. The government will pay all expenses of the reservists who are sent back to college. (They will probably be uniformed). This plan, as outlined, is essentially similar to the one submitted to the ACE two months ago by James Bryant Conant, president of Harvard University. Dr. Conant urged that every physically fit youth 18 and over be made a member of the armed forces and that the army and navy select those who were to go to college for specialized training and eventual commissions. Engineers Will Remain Assuming that the Council has called its shot right, the only big question still unanswered is what will happen to college men not enlisted in the now frozen reserves. Most of the men Just Wondering If the professor who each afternoon conducts the intriguing Spanish lessons over KFKU has a staff of secretaries to handle his daily fan mail. in this category are engineers or 17-year-old freshmen. The engineers will probably remain in college under army and navy sanction. No definite plan for earmarking engineers for industry has yet been developed, but the possibility of such a plan is not remote. Seventeen-year-olds may still enlist in the navy's V-7, and the army will undoubtedly make some provision for them, along with selected high school graduates, to continue school if they show possibilities as officers. The President's no-voluntary-enlistment decree makes mobilization of the reserves and co-ordination of war-time education the only logical step to take. The army and navy will eventually have to depend on the universities to train most of their junior officers, and it is important that those universities be geared now for that all important, highly difficult task. City College of New York, once the storm center of agitation against military training for undergraduate students, now has the largest volunteer Reserve Officers' Training Corps in the country, according to The Nation. While California University worries about rounding up its football fans next fall into a compact rooting section, this University can confine its worries to merely rounding up the fans.

President's Life Hard Poor Prexy By JIMMY GUNN Being president of the United States is a back-breaking, soul-rending task at best, and at the worst, it is a kind of Gorgon's head that has made strong men falter and weak men turn to impervious but immovable stone. For a stipend of seventy-five thousand dollars a year the chief executive is supposed to labor like a draft horse, deliberate with the speed and inspir- $ ^{ \textcircled{4} }$ For a stipend of seventy chief executive is supposed to late with the speed and inspiration of the most profound mathematical genius, and speak with the golden throat and the silvery tongue of an Ingersoll or a Bryan. Ay, pity the president! Johnson Was Not Appreciated To be president is to be maligned, misunderstood, and betrayed. Andrew Johnson, Lincoln's successor, was a man who was pure and good and noble, and he had to pay the price that the pure. the good and noble must ever pay in this unequal world. Johnson, in carrying out Lincoln's post-war plans, was opposed by a strong and malignant Republican Congress. Where Lincoln would have been lauded, Johnson was indicted. Where Lincoln would have quelled the rebellion with a frown, Johnson bent to it and was nearly broken. Woodrow Wilson, the idealist, the dreamer, the impractical man of books, returned from Europe after the peace conference negotiations that concluded the World War to find Congress filled with enemies and scoffers. From the defeat of having his Fourteen Points torn to shreds by a vengeful France and a practical England, he returned, like a prophet of old, to find himself without honor in his own country. Abe Was a Wit Wilson went to Europe with high hopes, vast dreams, and a castle in-the-air blueprinted and drawn to scale, and he come back with hopes shattered, dreams burst, and a single room that he had wrested from the human jackals of Europe to offer as his monument to enduring peace. Each stone he had fought for and put carefully in its place. This was the room that the members of a ghoulish Congress ripped apart as carefully as he had hutt it there.

I FRIDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1942 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE SEVEN 14 ★ Letters to the Editor T vv p f vv v t w a t i n t v v To the Editor: We have been shocked by the number of flagrantly unpatriotic letters which have been printed in the Kansan concerning the shortened Christmas vacation. We are dumbfounded to learn of the number of "Axis-sympathizers" we have in our midst here at the University. ★ We are becoming suspicious of our roommates, fearing that they are fifth-columnists. They want to go home for Christmas, thus forfeiting the war to the Japanese. They blame the administration for the decision, when we all know that it came straight from the MSC. Why in these normal war times should they want to spend Christmas with their relatives before they are drafted? Ridiculous! As fine arts majors, some of them cannot see that their services are more vital to the war effort than the officers in training at Annapolis, the vets at Kansas State, and the engineers at Purdue, who have been subjugated to the mistreatment of extended vacations. Further exhibiting their narrow-mindedness, they have refused to believe that the "cramming" to be caused by the shortened semester will increase their efficiency. They seem to bellieve that a two-weeks period might have provided them with some time to catch up in their studies. Thankfully, we do not have so many of these students who are disgruntled. We think it the duty of the great majority of us students, who would rather go to class than eat, to make the others see the light. We are willing to take the initiative in the formation of a Union of Harmonious Thinkers to Win the War With No Vacations. Such students would concentrate mightily upon their commando training during Christmas week so that they might realize some value from remaining in school during the holiday season. Surely, then the Jap will tremble and Hitler will throw his hands up in despair. Tom Harmon Paul Brownlee P. S. All thinking students and faculty members should make it a point to crowd on the same trains Christmas, because the service men are probably tired of sitting, anyway.

RATHER BE RIGHT---ward trip Christmas Eve. Servicemen and civilian travelers are expected to fill trains and busses to capacity. Abraham Lincoln was a noted humorist as well as a great president. It is to him we shall ever look for the palatable way of expressing an eternal truth. When a friend inquired as to how he felt about being president, he compared himself with the man who was riding out of town on a rail after having been tarred and feathered. A voice from the crowd asked him how he liked it and he replied: "Were it not for the honor of the thing. I think I would prefer to walk."

The boxes have been placed in Fraser hall, Frank Strong hall, Marvin hall, Watson library, and the Journalism building. Transportation officials have estimated that unless some steps are taken, approximately half of the student body will have to stand on their home. Indicating the expected trend in Christmas travel this year, some of the railroads have already limited the use of company passes as one means of relieving some of the congestion. Transportation officials in this city have indicated that if the Travelers' Poll receives sufficient response from the student body, that steps will be taken to bring additional rolling-stock here for the more crowded hours and routes. They have, however, emphasized that such a move can be made only if the students cooperate wholeheartedly in the attempt to secure the necessary advance information. The blank to be filled was carried in yesterday's issue of the Kansan and is reprinted today. In those houses in which there is an insufficient number of blanks for all occupants, the residents are asked to make their own blanks patterned after that printed in this paper. ... — BUY WAR STAMPS ... — UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS OFFICIAL BULLETIN ENGLISH PROFICIENCY EXAMINATION.

PAGE EIGHT UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1942 Trees Given For Campus Landscape Gifts of nearly 1,000 trees to the University for the campus beautification project now under way on Mt. Oread, were announced today by Chancellor Deane W. Malott. Mr. and Mrs. Irving Hill, alumni of the University, have contributed 750 assorted trees as their latest contribution to the project, and W. S. Grisea, also of Lawrence and a University alumnus, gave 200 western yellow pines. Nearly half of Mr. and Mrs. Hill's gift trees have already been planted on the campus on the north and east slopes of Mt. Oread. The birch and sycamore trees will be planted on the shore of Potter lake. Mr. Grisea's gift, the yellow pines, will be used largely for restoration of Marvin Grove. Supervision of the planting is in charge of the Campus Planning committee under the chairmanship of Dr. Cora M. Downs, of the bac- Design Students Exhibit Work in Spooner-Thayer Exhibits of various designs by students can be seen in the basement of Spooner-Thayer museum. Designs from nature and nature forms are prominent in the exhibits, in butterfly drawings, and in the first large designs of freshmen. One set of drawings is by the fourth grade art students in Cordley School, taught by art majors. Another exhibit contains designs for drapes in a game room and in a child's room. Sophomores and juniors are now drawing designs from slides which they saw in the botany department. Some of these designs are for form and others are adapted for actual use. These designs will be exhibited in a short time. teriology department. Other members are Mrs. John Nelson, Dr. Lawrence C. Woodruff, and Mr. Hill. The committee has been engaged for the past two or three years with activities and plans for the landscaping and development of the campus with particular attention to long range planning for future years. Dr. Ihrig To Speak At Engineer Dinner All engineers departments will be represented at the Annual Engineering banquet at 6:00 tomorrow in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building. Dr. Ihrig, a graduate of the University of California, is the holder of several patents, one of which is an "irrigizing" process that hardens steel by the use of silicon. He has done considerable research in this field. Dr. Harry Ihrig, chief metallurgist for the largest makers of stainless steel. Globe Steel Tube company, will speak about the processing and uses of special steels and alloys in airplane construction. Prof. E. C. Buehler, of the speech department, will be toastmaster. As a "surprise" element, Prof. Allen Crafton will be in charge of the musical part of the program that remains in secret. The engineers may bring dates to the dinner. Tickets may be purchased at the dean's office. ... BUY WAR STAMPS ...

Prof. $ ^{*} $ The president of the Men's Student Council and the Women's Self. Governing Association were each asked to appoint two members from the students. They appointed Bob White and Vernon McKale, Council president, and Jill Peck and Marge Rader, president. Will Study Possibilities Chairman Woodruff expressed a hope that the committee could meet for the first time tomorrow afternoon. In apointing the committee the Chancellor said: "In an effort to meet the interest of the students in their problem of student government I am setting up a committee of eight to make a thorough and complete canvass of the possibilities. In view of the laws and regulations under which the University operates, and of the preogatives of the faculty, the responsibilities of the administrators, and the needs of the students." The Chancellor probably plans to assume the role of final authority, for he said at the time of the appointment, "This committee will meet at the call of the chairman, free to pursue its deliberations in any way and to make to me whatever recommendations it sees fit to make from time to time." American Transport Sunk in Pacific Area Washington—(INS)The navy disclosed today that the former palatial liner, President Coolidge, struck a mine and sank in the South Pacific and at the same time, revealed that American army planes are continuing a strong aerial offensive against the Japanese in the Solomons. The President Coolidge was trans-porting 4,000 troops to South Pacific areas when it went down, but only four men were lost. "Through prompt and efficient rescue efforts, casualties were limited to four men," the navy stated. The Coolidge, weighing 21.000 tons was the largest American transport to be sunk in the war. This brought to ten the number of American transports lost in the Atlantic and Pacific, but, in each case, a loss of life was comparatively small.

ELMER A. ZILCH IS 'COMING IN FOR A LANDING.'" Before the landing gear of The Plumed Knight of Journalism's huge B-125 had touched the runway of the La Golondrina airport, press correspondents were sending dispatches to the waiting world, and editions of an extra paper were being snatched by the frenzied people of Rio. He Wears the Purple Heart Zilch, leaving the foxholes of Bataan and the sandy beach of Guadalcanal to attend the yearly banquet to be given in his honor by the department of journalism at the University, proudly displayed the Purple Heart awarded him for being wounded in action (he cut his thumb on a beer can according to reports, although the modest crusader doesn't want to talk about it.) President Getulio Vargas and a vast concourse of Brazilian officials and foreign diplomats were on hand to lead a triumphal procession through the streets. Blackout precautions were dispensed with for the next week, on the theory that no Axis nation dare stage an air raid with Zilch on hand to combat the foe. Impromptu conga lines, with Zilch at the head, were formed in the boulevards, and orchids floated down from the windows of Rio's skyscrapers, landing all around the man who had done so much for the advancement of journalism. Future Plans When asked of his plans after the fateful 29th of December, Zilch blinked eight times and said, "Damned if I know.

In response to a wire sent by the Daily Kahsan, Zilch replied, in part: "TIM COMING, I'M COMING FOR MY HEAD IS BENDING LOW, AND I LONG TO BE AT LAST IN THE CITADEL OF PROBIBITION TION. LOVE TO ALL." When Zilch will leave Rio for his next leg of the long journey will remain a military secret, but shrewd analysts predict that he will arrive at an unnamed Atlantic coast port, probably by submarine or patrol boat.

Smith Handles Demonstrations STRESS FITNESS--of discussion and application by Miss Jean Bliss, also of the department. The latter part of the morning was spent in a working conference on the program for men and women. Demonstrations were given in the large gymnasium under the supervision of Captain Smith on "Marching;" H. A. Shenk of the department of physical education, "Calisthenics" and "Responsie Activities and Relays" given by R. R. Strait. "Rhythmies" was the topic Color Film on Disease Shown To Pharmacists The film also reviewed the Shick test for diptheria, and the Dick test for scarlet fever. There is no test for lock jaw. In 1719, Jenner discovered a method to insure immunity against smallpox, the film disclosed. "Immunization Against Infectious Diseases" as pictured in the three-reel color film of the same name which was shown to the Pharmacy club Friday, is produced by three methods. The most difficult way is contracting the disease, according to the illustrated explanation. Without having the disease, immunization may be brought about by injecting dead bacteria cells into the body or the toxin made by the bacteria. The anti-toxin which is then formed in the blood stream is used for short immunizations only. Many persons with defective vision also could do effective work in important jobs. In one large plant approximately 50 per cent of the positions might be filled by persons who are blind in one eye but have good vision in the other.

With Charles "Bobeat" Black resuming practice yesterday after a leave of absence, Kansas will have a man capable of guarding big Ed Beisser, 6 foot $6_{1/2}$ inch giant who fouled out early in the second half Student basketball tickets will be ready Monday for distribution at the Athletic office in Robinson gymnasium. Regular Forwards Return of last season's thriller, won by Kansas, 53-49. Beisser scored nine and Black 11 points in that game. Regular Keywords Return Co-captians Ralph Langer and Joe Leoisl, regular forwards with the strong Bluejays last year, have returned to give Creighton one of the highest-scoring frontlines in the nation. Guard Dick Nolan is now a senior medic at Creighton, but will not play this season on account of a heavy stolastic schedule. Jayhawks Lead Throughout Although he will not start, the Jayhawks remember guard Hebenstreit. Hebenstreit entered the game here with three minutes to play and popped in three straight one-handers from far out to scare the Jayhawks who thought they had the game safely tucked away when the score was 51-41. Coach Phog Allen's Kansans held a lead throughout the Rockhurst game as his new starting lineup gave 2,000 fans a different view of the team that Gardner Clippers trounced 40-29. Quarterbacked by Ray Evans. Kansas scored thirteen field goals in the first half. Otto Schnellbacher, who led the scoring with thirteen points, John Buescher and Armand Dixon accounted for 20 of Kansas' 29 points in the first half. The Kansas fast break worked better than at any time this season (continued to page five, Ray Evans Makes AP's All-America 42 Ray Evans' athletic achievements were climaxed Friday when he was named at right lalback on the Associated Press third all-American team. The sharpshooting junior gained all-American recognition in leading the nation with 101 completed Jayhawk Jabberwock by Milo Farneti passes, the second time in football history that a back has completed more than 100 passes. Bud Schwenk of Washington set the record at 114 in 1941. Coach Gwinn Henry said yesterday, "Evans is the greatest player I've ever coached." NO FOUR-DAY VACATION Phog Allen is one individual who has outmaneuvered the University four-day Christmas vacation edict.

Kansas was previously scheduled to play only two games, St. Bonaventure at Buffalo Dec. 26 and Fordham in Madison Square Garden Dec. 28, but two more games have been added.

Of these men, Brigadier General Ennis Whitehead is the only one to wear a star. The University's first and only Admiral is Alva Douglas Bernhard, a student here in 1907. 1 Bernhard is in command of the navy air Rear Admiral Bernhard is force at the Norfolk Naval Station, Norfolk, Va. This summer, at the time of his promotion, Admiral Bernhard was head of the naval air station at Corpus Christi, Texas. He is a brother-in-law of John Ise, professor of economics. Whitehead in Australia General Whitehead was graduated from the College in 1920. He is now in Australia, a junior air commander under General Douglas MacArthur. Following his graduation Whitehead reported for the Topeca Daily Capital. He has been in the army since the early twenties, and before being sent to Australia, the general was ranking officer at Luke Field, Phoenix, Ariz. Margaret Whitehead, his daughter, was graduated from KU in the spring of 1942. In his search to satisfy alumni readers concerning KU's army notables, Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni Association, discovered Brigadier General M. A. W. Shockley, a former student of the University in 1892 and '93 and graduate of the Kansas City medical college in 1898, only to learn that the general had just retired. Need Generals "This war came along and left us pretty hard up for generals," Ellsworth said, "but we have had illusorious generals in the past." He mentioned General Fredrick Funston, once General John J. Pershing's commandin officer for whom Camp Funston, newly mechanized cavalry encampment near Ft. Riley was named. The University's list of colonels is: Raymond Dart. '14; Dr. Sumner Everingham, '07; Julius C. Holmes, John A. Hettinger, William H. Baily, and Alva Brumage, former students. Lieutenant Colonels are Adrian H. Lindsey, '17; Frank C. "Mike" Lynch, '11; Richard D. Wentworth, '25; John W. Williams, '23; William K. McNawn, '36; and William McPherson and R. P. peard, former students. Navy Lieutenant Commanders are: Dr. Irwin S. Brown, '24; George M. Boman and Lyle Armel former students. The survey of handicapped persons also included provision for study of the use of women in industry. It was found that—with proper training—they could perform the duties of a majority of industrial jobs. LIBRARY HOURS Watson Library will close at 9:30 p.m. Monday because of the blackout. Rescue books may be taken out at 8:30 p.m. C. M. Baker Director of Libraries Basic Courses Test, Ihrig Tells Engineers "Basic courses rather than the advanced courses are the criteria for which engineering graduates are selected for jobs today," Dr Harry K. Ihrig, Milwaukee, Wis., told engineers and their guests Friday evening. Dr. Irigh was guest speaker for the Dean's Dinner in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building. "We look, instead, from the industrial standpoint, to their basic training in physics, chemistry, and mathematics, which are essential and cannot be overstressed in any field of engineering," he explained Speaking on "Romance in Metallurgy", Dr. Ibrig outlined how research and analysis, with these basic courses, had changed living in the past fifty years. IM Stars Of Week Dr. Irbig emphasized the importance of iron in that 97 per cent of the metals used today are iron. The next in importance is copper which is less than one per cent. Dr. Ihrig presented slides of the metal processes which showed the differences the new processes made in the composition of metals. J. J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering and Architecture, introduced the engineering staff and their wives who were present, and Prof. E. A. Stephenson, head of the department of petroleum engineering, introduced Dr. Irigl. Prof. Alen Crafton, of the department of speech and drama was guest 'artist' who, with self-accompaniment, sang songs of World War I, including "If He Could Fight As He Can Love," "Just a Baby's Prayer at Twilight," and "Battle Hymn of the SOS." Prof. E. C. Buehler, head of the department of speech and drama, acted as toastmaster.

The principal factor behind the paper's action is that if city and state sanitation ordinances are not being heeded by these food handlers, then the welfare of students who take some or all their meals at such restaurants is being jeopardized. The following report is unbiased, unprejudiced, and written from actual observations by the writer. For clarification, the restaurants and cafes have been listed alphabetically, and notes on their observation of the rules of sanitation follow. They have been classified according to a grading scale of A, B, C, D, and F. Bill's Cafe—This food-handling establishment, despite its diminutive size and obscure location, was exceedingly clean behind the counter, had clean shelves for storing dishes, and the walls and ceilings were cleanly painted and void of cobwebs. No evidence of cockroaches was found there. There were no cracks or fissures in the walls or ceilings. Glasses and dishes were clean. The equipment and processes used for washing dishes and glassware was, however, not quite up to the standard set by state regulations. Bill's Cafe rates a "B plus." The Blue Mill—Two weeks ago this restaurant, according to sanitary officials, would have been graded a low "D", but due to the manager's conscientious efforts to correct his sanitary and public health conditions, the grading has gone up. The back kitchen was being cleaned, its walls and ceilings painted, and, in general, commendable improvements were being made. Meat storage facilities were still poor. The dish washing equipment was definitely not adequate. A cat was kept in the kitchen. The Blue Mill gets a "C minus." Brick's—The front fountain of this restaurant was its chief offender, glasses being spotted and carelessly washed and dried. The pastry case was kept in excellent closed condition, thus keeping out foreign substances. The floors were noticeably clean. The fountain syrups were, at the time of inspection, exposed to the open air. The kitchen and its personnel, were clean. Rinsing water was only 110 degrees in temperature. The state requires a minimum of 170 degrees. Brick's gets a "B minus." The Colonial Tea Room—The kitchen here was in extremely well-kept condition. The tables upon which food was prepared were spotlessly clean, and food handlers wore unsouled and neat uniforms. A new and well-kept automatic dish washer, of the type used by many large restaurants, was being used. The Colonial Tea Room gets a strong "A." The De Luxe Cafe — This establishment was typical of those observed which deal with a greatly increased number of patrons due to the influx of SOW workers. This cafe's back kitchen floor was in places covered with a scum of grease and refuse. Little care was taken in preventing food exposure. Foreign articles (old shoes, soiler aprons, rags) were 2 Just Wondering If the final outcome of negotiations between the Chancellor and the MSC will not be a closer relationship between the administration and the student representatives than has existed for many years. --strewn about the kitchen. The kitchen food handlers were not clean in dress. The De Luxe gets a "D plus." Dusty Rhodes Cafe—The interior of the restaurant was cleanly swept. The dish washing facilities were very poor, since employees merely suds the dishes then quickly rinse them with hot water. Inspection sheets show that this establishment., though warned previously, made no attempt to comply with state dish washing regulations. The pastry was exposed behind the counter. The food was prepared in a clean manner. Dusty Rhodes' Cafe gets a "C." Eldridge Hotel Coffee Shop - The back kitchen of this establishment contrasted greatly with the adjoining dining room and coffee shop. The kitchen, although steps have been taken to remedy the faulty conditions, was still far from being acceptable to health authorities. Several cockroaches were seen in the room and miscellaneous articles were seen strewn about the kitchen. The walls and ceilings were dirty, and the effectiveness of the dish washing equipment was doubtful. Because of steps being taken to remedy these conditions, the Eldridge Hotel Coffee Shop is graded "C minus." D.S. The Kansan report on sanitary conditions in Lawrence eating establishments will be continued on Tuesday's editorial page.

She fell into a doze in her history class the other day. The phone rang in an office nearby and she was halfway to the door of the classroom before she woke up. At the Engineering Banquet (what no haircuts?): John Jakosky, son of Dean J. J. Jakosky, had his hair well splattered with gravy. Immediately a waiter dashed out to give him a shampoo with a dish rag. Christmas is the time for cheer. The kind that comes in glasses With flowing wine and foaming beer And no more classes. Christmas Cheer But Christmas will be short this year With little time for play, So lift the glass and shed a tear, And look out New Year's Day! Also at the Engineering Banquet—censorship: Prof. Allen Crafton, guest artist, sang several songs of the other war. And each time he got up to sing he would be reminded of the story about the soldier boy and the farmer's daughter who was working as a waitress in a cafe. The first time he began the story Dean Jakosky interrupted to say that he wanted to keep the banquet on a little higher plane. The second time he began the story Dean Jakosky interrupted department of speech and drama and toastmaster for the evening, stopped him with the admonition not to give the wrong impression of the department. The third time Chancellor Malott censored the story because he hadn't had time to confer with the MSC. The fourth and last time Crafton said he could be found in the corner of the main lounge after the banquet, if anyone wanted to hear the story. NEW STAR SHINES Successor to Valentino Bugs Bunny Few people realize the crisis through which the motion picture industry has recently passed. When the armed forces began calling the services of the screen's reading male actors, hasty conferences among stockholders, producers, and directors were arranged, but for a long time the situation seemed hopeless. The movie theater was doomed to? New Star Is Nonchalant movie theater was doomed to go the same way as the sugar bowl and the garage. This new character is as refreshing to a movie audience worn to the verge of despair by a bombardment of double "features" as rain water running down the back of one's collar, or blouse (underline choice, or are you sensible and stay inside when it rains?) He faces life with confidence and nonchalance, sneering at the adversity that is continually heaped upon him by relentless script writers, matching trickery and cunning with cunning and trickery (just to throw the other fellow off guard.) Actor Lightens Sorrow He may indeed be symbolic of the little fellow, the trampled and the fallen, the gouged and the reamed, the weary and the oppressed, those Then, with little publicity or fanfare, there flashed across the screens of America's movie houses one of the most virile personalities since Rudolph Valentino. An unusual character he is, too—not the great lover type, hardly suave or sophisticated; one might say he represents the elemental in human beings, and then again one might not say that at all. No particular reason for it. who walk life's secret paths of sorrow alone and unaided but moving ever onward to inevitable triumph over seemingly insurmountable obstacles (or are you taking trigonometry too?) People leave the theater after his performances with a new light in their careworn faces, chins up, thumbs up, back erect, chest out, tummy in, feet together, hands at sides, (all right, dismissed!) Little else can be said for this person. He has made our lives brighter, made us forget, just for a while, the cares of the world. Enshrined forever in the hearts and minds of all of us is carrot-chomp ing, stubby-tailed Bugs Bunny.

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1942 AACAAA V1167 V11543 V1201 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE SEVEN ★ Letters to the Editor The following letter has reference to the editorial appearing on today's editorial page concerning restaurant conditions in this city, and which will be continued Tuesday. ★ I have read the proposed editorial prepared by Mr. Dean Sims concerning an inspection of the Lawrence restaurants, cafes, and other eating places. It is well written, giving a fair rating and stating the conditions as they appeared at the time of the inspection. I feel the article will be a benefit even though there might be some criticism from the individuals discussed. Hoping that we may work in cooperation with the Kansan in the future, I remain.

Casualties Listed In Three Services Washington, Dec. 12--(INS)--The number of sailors, marines and coast guardsmen, killed wounded, and missing from the outbreak of war to Nov. 30 today was placed at 18, 838, when the navy reported that its casualties for the last half of Nov. totaled 1,613. The latest navy casualty list, covering the period Nov. 16, to 30, reported 546 men as dead, 660 as wounded and 407 mising. The navy said that the preponderant share of the casualties resulted from direct action with the enemy, but pointed out that the total includes names of those who were lost in accidents at sea and in the air on duty directly connected with wartime operations. Some of those under the classification of missing the navy said may have been rescued at sea and landed at Isolated spots, or otherwise have made their way to safety at places from which they have had no opportunity to communicate with US officials. The casualty list was checked at the Alumni office and no University graduates were among those reported. A recapitulation of navy, marine, and coast guard casualties from Dec. 7, 1941 to Nov. 30, last follows: Navy—dead 4,348, wounded, 1,434; missing 8,437, total 14,255. Marines—dead, 1,114; wounded, 1,370; missing, 1,921; total, 4,405. Coast Guard—dead 38; wounded, 11; missing, 129; total 178. ... BUY WAR STAMPS ...

The resolution as passed by the Council asks that the charter include five rights which the Council believes should be at least partially under the control of the students. These five principles will be taken to the first meeting tomorrow afternoon of the "peace" committee formed by the Chancellor last week. Bob White, chairman of the MSC's Student Rights committee, explained that the principles set forth in the resolution will serve as a definite program for the solution of administration-student relations. He said that the principles would provide a starting place for negotiations. White emphasized that some of the requested rights were already under student control, but that the Charter of Student Rights would set them down in specific terms so (continued to page two) TompkinsAnnounces Senior Committees Senior committee members and chairmen for the class of '43 were announced today by Willis Tompkins, president of the second war graduating class of World War II.

Bachmann Will Play Danny Bachmann's band will furnish music for the mid-week, and the old custom of free admittance for couples and ten cents each for stags will be carried out. This dance will be a trial to find out how many persons can be accommodated and how the idea appeals to the students. The committee is studying the possibility of using the Union cafeteria for dancing and coking if the floor can be transformed for dancing without too great an expense. It was voted to open the Kansas room for free dancing on weekend nights when it is not being used by (continued to page five) Conflict Postpones V-Speaking Contest Because of the conflicting hours of the band concert, the "Speaking for Victory" contest will be held Thursday, Dec. 17 in the little theater in Green hall.

Blackout Signals 11 Minutes Late A slip up in the signal system or a misunderstanding of orders resulted in an eleven minute delay in starting the practice blackout in Lawrence last night, G. W. Bradshaw, director of the Lawrence civilian defense corps, said today. The local headquarters of the civilian defense corps understood that it was to receive a notification from headquarters in Topeka before beginning the blackout. They received a preliminary warning from Topeka at 9:18 but never received the actual signal to begin the blackout. Finally at 10:11 the local board gave the order to start the blackout on their own authority. They have not yet determined whether the fault was in the signal system from Topeka or if they misunderstood their orders. The black-out was in effect until 10:26. Bradshaw, associate professor of civil engineering at the University, was pleased with the cooperation of the people and the wardens in the practice, however. He said that its Food Shortage Hits 'Batchers' ★★★ ★★★ A Crisis In Snacking (continued to page four) BY PHYLLIS JONES Shoppers battle for the last pound "Batching" is facing a crisis. No longer can a hungry student dash home at night, open a can of pork and beans and heat it up. He has to soak his dried beans and put them on to boil about noon, if he is to eat them that night. Then, if he doesn't time everything right, he may come home to a roomful of smoke and a frantic landlady. Also, there is the problem of pork. If he had some, he could have® some pork and beans—if he has the beans. If he can afford to pay 25 cents a pound for salt pork; the butcher may not have it to sell; he is selling cheese these days. of bacon; and the butcher has his own enigma of the missing link—the link of sausage.

(INS)—Aliming a knockout blow at a new Japanese airfield in the Central Solomons, American dive bombers, flying fortresses, and fighter planes, have attacked enemy installations for the fifth consecutive day on New Georgia Island, the Navy revealed today. The communique, announcing two separate attacks on Dec. 14, came shortly after Secretary of the Navy Knox, at a press conference, stated that the Americans are "watching the place pretty closely" and are determined to wipe out the Jap airfields on New Georgia. The new American assaults were a continuation of the offensive against Japan following the capture yesterday of Buna, important base at New Guinea.

Three veterans—Beisser, forwards Ralph Langer and Joe Loisel—are schooled in the zone defense that Coach Eddie Hickey will employ against Kansas. The two forwards and Beisser have been piling up large Bluejay scores for the last two years. Black Returns With Charlie Black back in the starting lineup and Armand Dixon fitting in at guard, the famed Kansas fast break of last season may be approached tonight. Dixn has taken the place of sophomore Bill Brill who is out with a knee injury. After much experimenting at the "quarterbcak position, Coach Allen has decided to rely on John Buescher, last season's regular center. Dixon and Ray Evans have been playing center in practice but have not yet approached the smooth ball-handling of Buescher. Dixon may fill in for Buescher who is 12 pounds underweight. Dick Nolan Gone Black, second high scorer in the Big Six in 1942, will match scoring ability with Beisser. Beisser was held to two field goals and five free throws by Black in Kansas' 53-49 victory here last season. Two newcomers. Ward Gibson and Gene Lally, have replaced Dick Nolan and Gene Haldeman at guards. Gibson is a hefty 6 foot 4 inch defensive standout while his running mate is only 5 feet 9 inches tall.

Of the eight debates, four were wins. two were losses, and two were indecisions. "Our team," said Prof. E. C. Bueller, coach of the team, "is the only one Texas gives house to in their schools. For 10 years we have given three or four debates besides the debates in the tournament." During the trip, the debaters also spoke before high school and junior college audiences. Altogether nearly 3,500 persons heard them speak. The team won decisions from Texas Christian university, Southern Methodist university, Baylor university, and Universit yof Texas. "It is odd to notice the change of sentiment on the world federation problem in the different localities." Buehler remarked. "In Texas the negative won 2-1 while in Missouri the affirmative won 2-1." COUNCIL ASKS--- (continued from page one) that no confusion would arise later on governing priorities. Five Rights Sought The resolution recommends to the "peace" committee that five rights be granted to students. They are; 1. That the students should have a half-voice in the distribution of all money coming from activity tickets. 2. That nearly a full-voice should be given to students in the management of all activities financed by the activity ticket, with the exception of those managed by some school or department of the University. This would include particularly the Kansas Union, the YMCA and the YWCA, the Student Forums board, the Statewide Activities association, the Intramural board, and authorized publications such as the Student Directory and the K-Book. 3. That students should have at least partial control of all other activities financed mainly by students. This would include the lecture and concert courses; music, dramatics, and debate programs; and the Athletic association. 4. That students, working in conjunction with faculty members who establish the social calendar, should possess complete jurisdiction over varsity and class dances. 5. That the students should be represented by a Joint Committee on Student Affairs which would meet with the Chancellor at least once a month, or at the call of either party. This committee would present student grievances to the administration, and would cooperate with the administration in settling University problems affecting students.

NATIONAL EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION 1942 Active Member Mix Launches Drive For Nurseru Funds The drive to obtain funds for maintenance another year of the Jayhawk Nursery has begun, Dr. A. J. Mix, chairman of the local "Save the Children" committee, said today. Circulars describing the English nursery, which is sponsored by the University, have been mailed to faculty members, and booklets containing photographs and information concerning the nursery, have been sent to the organized houses which contributed to the fund last year. More than $3200 was raised in a campaign conducted here last year for the establishment of the nursery, which now houses 30 children made homeless by the war. Of this sum, more than $1100 was contributed by faculty members and employees of the University. Organized houses gave more than $1000 to the fund last year, and it is hoped that they will contribute liberally again this year, Dr. Mix said. It is possible that the Faculty Follies will be presented again this year as a climax to the drive, but no plans for the event have as yet been drawn up, according to Dr. Mix.

KANSAS TUESDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1942 Jayhawk abberwock by Milo Farneti ROBERTS SENDS HIS EARLY Footballer Gene Roberts, whose life revolves about a bum knee, has already asked Santa Clause for his Christmas present. Roberts wants some new undamaged cartilage and ligaments for the knee. Just last week Gene rested his knee in Watkins hospital for a few days preparatory to being examined at Kansas City for the Navy's V-1 reserve. Roberts was sprinting for the train Saturday to take his physical examination at Kansas City. He slipped, fell, out popped the knee. This didn't stop Gene, though, as he passed the physical in spite of the deficiency. But the sophomore speedster still wants Santa to glue him together permanently. The dull Pacific Coast league football season must have been tough on the conference's press agent. The p. a. couldn't very well blow about the mediocre grid teams. ATHLETES 'DEMAND' MORE PAY So he comes up with the story that Pacific Coast athletes representatives are now "discussing a raise in salary for conference athletes due to the rising cost of living and comparatively high pay of West Coast shipyard and factory workers." Pacific Coast athletes get "62 and one-half cents an hour or $50 a month on campus jobs." Perhaps the War Labor Board may mediate the athletes' "demands." Then athletic representatives could pass the buck to WLB on "fair wage standards" for PCL athletes. REBUILD OR LET LAY? Phog Allen, who sometimes decries the commercial aspects of college athletics, will turn in a fair profit in the Madison Square Garden game against Fordham Dec. 28. "A fair profit" is one phrase that cannot be applied to Kansas football income. More such "commercialism" might elevate K U to the position where it need not consider discontinuing football on financial grounds (if football can be played in 1943). Then, wags would not even jokingly refer to Kansas as the "Hahvud of the Middlewest." Football and other sports do not deserve much attention now, but after the war University officials could produce better teams with high pressure methods—schedule bigtime elevens, get alumni support, hire a Steve Hannagan, buy players. There are necessary evils to continuously successful football. Students and University officials after the war will decide which it shall be—constant defeat or moderate victory. Either way, a section of University opinion will be disatisfied with the decision.

You can give him the right to live as a free American . . . the advantages of liberal schooling . . . the freedom to follow his religious beliefs . . . the privilege of choosing his life-work . . . yes, even the unquestioned right to gain a world of knowledge and pleasure through travel. Today, in the Union Pacific family, thousands of fathers are working tirelessly to justify the steadfast faith of their children. Theirs is the task of assuring the safe transportation of trainloads of war materials and troops. It is a tremendous job but they are doing it gladly. They know, as do we all, that only through hard work and sacrifice can we give our little ones the greatest gift of all . . . peace and freedom. All this you can give him by doing whatever you can no matter how little—to win this war so that he may live to appreciate fully the true meaning of Christmas . . . peace on earth and good-will toward men. Give Him The Greater Gift ++ The Progressive UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD The Strategic Middle Ports TUESDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1942 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE FIVE Navy Eats No Meat Shortage In Big Way For Sailors Here, Hamburgers Scarce When the Navy eats meat, it does it in a big way—to the tune of 450 pounds per meal. Though there is rumor of a meat shortage, the Navy diet won't be affected, except perhaps in menu for the day. Students, however, have already found that hamburgers are at a premium. One week the Navy had to since time was being taken to from the government. This was obtained through the wholesale houses from the OPA and enabled Miss Hermina Zipple to buy as much meat for the Navy as it needed. For a while sailors had to go without their 100 pounds of bacon for breakfast, but didn't suffer since sausage was substituted. Miss Zipple explained that all meats are available at certain times. The sailors may not get pork chops for a certain meal but will get the same amount of veal chops. The civian isn't quite so fortunate. Usually meat orders are delivered the first part of the week, but sometimes can't be filled toward the end of the week when meat markets have sold their quota for the week. Perhaps the most noticeable lack for the students is a shortage of hamburger. A meat salesman told Miss Zipple that he was just delivering 10 pounds to each house or restaurant. Naturally some need far more than this while others can only use 10 pounds. The meat shortage has not affected the Union cafeteria sharply, according to Miss Zipple, because a variety of meats can be used at the same meal. If only a certain amount of one kind -an one kind of meat arrives, another can be added to the menu. It is harder on organized houses to receive only half of an order, for then some students get one meat, and others another. FOOD SHORTAGE---rely on reserves for their meat secure an exemption certificate (continued from page one) went into effect as there would be a more equitable distribution. As the problem stands, one housewife is angry if her neighbor is able to buy a roast, when she gets to store too late to buy one like it. Indirectly this is the problem of the student who boards, but it is nothing in comparison with that of his friends who batch. Milk Is Scarce, Too Since I can't get coffee, the "batcher" decides, I'll drink milk; I need the calcium anyway. He is foiled again; for more than one shopper has been obliged to return home with an empty bottle. The coke demon discovers that there are only certain days on which he can buy a carton; so he takes his empty case and bottles down a few days in advance and puts in an order. He has learned to lock his door each night or expect to find a few bottles missing in the morning, for fellow roomers regard carton buying as the next thing tooarding. The cokes are not bad if they set long enough for the water to accumulate at the top; what is left tastes almost like the old pre-war coke It's not a question of pinching pennies—there is the copper shortage to consider. However, the average batcher does cringe somewhat at paying 25 cents for a stalk of celery. There is the luxury of lettuce—20 cents a head—which decides for him whether he is more vitamin than budget conscious. He has the problem of fitting a square meal into the round hole in his pocket. He has heard a lot about a price ceiling, but cottage cheese is now fifteen cents a carton instead of ten as he paid last summer. Grocers Take the Rap Yes, we have no bananas, grocers humorously remark; but their grids are a little tight. They'd like to keep the "batcher" well-fed; it's money in their cash registers. Byron F. Cooke, Lawrence grocer, said that the following canned goods were no longer obtainable: baked beans, pork and beans, lima beans, kidney beans, raspberries, blackberries, spaghetti, chili, macaroni, tamales, salmon, sardines, oysters and sweet potatoes. At present such canned goods as spinach, tomatoes, peaches and pears are still to be had. The greatest call, he said, was for salmon and spaghetti. Pickles, preserves and other commodities are sold in glass jars, and a common assumption was that most products now no longer sold in cans would soon be put out in glass containers. Charles Arnold, Lawrence grocer, said that no such plan will be carried out unless a satisfactory substitute can be found for the tin lids now used on glass jars. "You'll just have to cook your own spaghetti," he said.

The problem of a music room may be solved by using a part of the present women's lounge. It has been recommended that the lounge be divided in half with a glass tile partition and the southeast part utilized for a music room.

Program Is Complete For Vespers Sunday The program of the annual Christmas vespers to be presented at 4 o'clock next Sunday afternoon, Dec. 20, in Hoch auditorium is completed, according to Dean D. M. Swarthout. Action taken by the committee at a meeting Monday authorized the movement of the ping pong tables into the main lounge on the first floor of the Union building. A subcommittee is also consulting with the administration on the possibilities of showing movies in Hoch auditorium. Because of gas rationing, only one performance of the vespers will be given. Last year more than 6,000 persons were present at two performances. $ \textcircled{*} $ Tommy Hankins, son of Prof. and Mrs. J. E. Hankins, and Fred Coombs, son of Mr. and Mrs. Madison Coombs, will light the candles his year. An interesting musical feature of this year's program will be the playing of the popular "Meditation" from "Thais," by four violinists, accompanied by harp and organ. The University a cappella choir of nearly ninety voices, aided by members of the Fine Arts voice faculty, has been preparing for several weeks the four Christmas numbers they will sing. The choir also will take part in a singing processional and recessional with lighted tapers. Mieribah Moore, saprano from the school of Fine Arts faculty, will sing Gounod's "Heavenly Light." with harp and organ accompaniment and violin obigato. During the program, the Jay Janes will take up a free-will offering to be used as a Christmas Vespers Scholarship Fund to assist talented and needy students in art and music. While this is being done, the University Symphony Orchestra, under Director Karl Kuersteiner, will play the "Pastoral Symphony" from Handel's "Messiah." Special scenery and properties are being made by Karl Mattern, T. D. Jones, and Bernard Frazier, while Marjorie Whitney and her staff are planning costumes for the tableaux. The opening tableau will depict Russian Christmas, and will be a brilliant and colorful picture. The "Are YOUR Clothes Ready For Holiday Frolics?"

The report is the result of a cooperative inspection by a Kansan editorial writer and Joe L. Walker, county sanitarian, in the belief that such a move would work for the benefit of students' and service men's health. Restaurants have been classified according to a grading scale of A, B, C, D, and F. The report is entirely unbiased, and made with no malice toward the parties concerned. Restaurants are discussed in alphabetical order beginning where the writer left off Sunday. The Hearth—Ranking high, this food-handling establishment maintained clean dining rooms and a spotless kitchen. The dish washing facilities approached a full agreement with state health regulations. The food handlers were very cleanly dressed. The glassware and dishes were stored on very clean shelves, away from the dust-bearing outside air. The food preparation approached perfection in cleanliness and exceeding care. The Hearth is graded "A." The Green Lantern Cafe—The dining room of the cafe was kept clean. The back kitchen was disorderly, and food was exposed. The dish washing was questionable as to regulation conformity. The food-handlers in the kitchen wore soiled aprons and the utensils were not properly cleansed. No visible efforts were being made to improve the unsanitary conditions of this cafe despite warnings of health officials. The Green Lantern Cafe is graded "C minus." The Jayhawk Cafe—The fountain glasses were spotted and showed signs of improper drying. The butter was kept behind the counter in an open container, and was exposed to the atmosphere. The kitchen was kept clean, and the floors of the entire restaurant were free from dirt and foreign material. The dish washing procedure was not quite acceptable by state regulations, but the actual preparation of food was very sanitary. The Jayhawk Cafe is graded "B." Johnny's Place—The glassware washing facilities behind the fountain were not in proper working order. Since the cafe recently changed in management, the facilities for handling food were not yet in order, and the new manager stated that they were handling no food—and would not until properly prepared. Evidences of the presence of rats in the building were obvious. The fountain was somewhat disorganized. Because of the confusion involved in the establishment's changing hands, Johnny's Place is graded "C minus." The Rock Chalk Cafe—The cafe used a fairly good three-process glass washing, but the glassware at the fountain was spotted. The pastry shelves were exposed, and the investigator saw two cockroaches there. The butter was exposed in an open bowl, and there were foreign particles upon it. The dish washing procedure was capable of being good. The walls and ceilings were semi-clean, but there were cobwebs in the pantry used for storing --dishes. The floors and booths of the cafe were clean. The Rock Chalk Cafe rates a "C minus." Just Wondering --- How about these professors who demand that class members be on time at their courses, then hold them five minutes overtime so that they are late to their next hour classes? The Student Union Fountain — The glasses were fairly clean, only a few being found that were spotted. The fountain syrups were exposed. One fountain attendant was seen squeezing limes with his fingers instead of using a sanitary squeezer. The dish washing process at the fountain was very good. A sanitary board-grating covered the floor behind the fountain. The milk-cooling box was partially filled with dirty water. The Student Union fountain is graded "B." Wiedemann's Health authorities believe the strong odor that was encountered by inspectors as they entered this establishment originated beneath the basement floor. Its exact cause was not determined. At the fountain, syrups were exposed, glass washing facilities were poor, and food refuse was scattered about. The back kitchen was only slightly better than the fountain in respect to cleanliness. The stored meats were kept in their original paper wrappings. A quantity of food was lying exposed in the kitchen. Wiedemann's gets the grade of "D."—D.S. New York papers featured in scare headlines the horror story of our great war sacrifice—the limiting of coffee to one cup a day. Such sacrifice must have chilled the bones of the Russians, English, and Chinese.

SOUTHWESTERN BELL THE TOWER COMPANY HALL TECHNOLOGY BELL SYSTEM THE TOWER COMPANY INSTALLATION & SERVICES TELEPHONE COMPANY g n y --- TUESDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1942 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE SEVEN Letters to the Editor Sirs: Although the opinion expressed herein seems to be in the minority here at the University, I feel that for the honor of our school, if for no other reason, a reply should be made to the number of letters appearing in the Kansan attacking the shortened Christmas vacation. Do not the writers of these letters realize that it has been the swiftness of the enemy that is now forcing the Allies to flight for self-preservation? Do not they realize that it is time that must be gained—time in which to build planes, tanks, and guns, time in which to train men into efficient fighters, time to transport these men and their planes, tanks, and guns to the fighting fronts to stop the enemy? It is time, which we, as a nation, are striving for, and it is time we must have to survive. True, the five school days gained this Christmas seem little and unimportant, but the back bone of our Pacific Fleet was wrecked, our far Pacific possessions lost, and Hawaii and our West Coast laid wide-open to invasion, by one hour and fifty minutes of hell at Pearl Harbor. These five days, plus others gained in the revised schedule, will permit men from this campus to place their services in our war effort two weeks sooner next spring, thus placing men and materials on the fighting fronts with a saving of two weeks time. ★ Poland fell in less than three. The students who are permitted to remain in school to advance their technical education, will, by the aid of this same revision that annexed five days of Christmas vacation, be permitted to save even semesters of time in placing their services in the Allied war effort. American men have died, are dying, and will yet die in battle because of a lack of planes, tanks, and guns. A lack due to a shortage of time. Do we of the University of Kansas wish to kill time—and American men? Richard Hartzell The following letter has reference to the editorial appearing on today's editorial page concerning restaurant conditions in this city. I have read the proposed editorial prepared by Mr. Dean Sims concerning an inspection of the Lawrence restaurants, cafes, and other eating places. It is well written, giving a fair rating and stating the conditions as they appeared at the time of the inspection. I feel the article will be a benefit even though there might be some criticism from the individuals discussed. Hoping that we may work in cooperatin with the Kansan in the future, I remain, Sincerely yours, Joe L.

PAGE EIGHT UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS TUESDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1942 Snooping Around News and Views from other colleges Oil Can Signifies Service Since 1916, when Edward M. Freeman, dean of the College of Agriculture, Forestry and Home Economics at the University of Minnesota was given a little red oil can as a joke, he has presented it at the Christmas assembly to the Agriculture student or faculty member who has contributed the most to the Agriculture campus during the preceding year. At this year's Christmas assembly, Dean Freeman was surprised when the tables were turned and the student to whom he was to present the little red can service trophy presented it to him. Dean Freeman, who is retiring, will keep the tradition going by returning the oil can next year to be awarded again.

The concert will last about one and a half hours. "There is something of particular interest in every number played," Mr. Wiley asserted, "from the opening 'Star Spangled Banner,' played in a new arrangement for band in A-flat, suited to the singing voice." The first part of the program presents the concert band in popular selections, the modern, discordant rhapsody, "Jericho" by Morton Gould, "Manhattan Serenade," Ex-Lt. Allen Crafton in his 1918 uniform singing "Wake Up, America." and David T. Lawson, baritone, giving "Ol' Man River."

Here 34 Years Professor Johnson came to the University to teach in 1908 after receiving his bachelor of arts and doctor of philosophy degrees at Yale in 1900 and 1905. He taught at Yale three years before coming here. He had been a member of the English faculty continuously for 34 years. During his years at University, Dr. Johnson strengthened the department of English. He brought many of the present members of the department to the University. His influence on students was em- phasized by a student who wrote Professor Johnson before his death, "... I could not realize how much my work (with you) would mean to me later—both in knowledge and most important, in heightened enjoyment of every-day living." Professor Johnson was born Augs.

Malott announced today that a special meeting of all men students in the University is to be held at 4:30 tomorrow afternoon in Hoch auditorium. At this meeting the Chancellor will give some specific information that the University has received from the war manpower commission, as to the effect of new policies concerning the enlisted reserves and other university men. The war manpower commission, headed by Paul V. McNutt has adopted a new program for the induction and further education of men of university age. The Chnacellor will give as much detailed information as he has available and will answer any questions that men may have concerning the program.

A large portion of the Marshall's forces are now in a pocket between Montgomery's advanced force and the balance of the British army of the Nile, moving forward as rapidly as possible to catch up with Rommel and destroy his tattered remnants. Allied bombing and fighting planes maintained steady pressure against Axis positions along the Eastern coast of Tunisia. On the Russian front, the Germans attempted new counter attacks before sub zero weather again overtakes the Nazi legion, but all crumpled before charges of Soviet tank forces which took a heavy toll of enemy troops, especially at Stalingrad.

Responding to numerous questions on whether the plan would "go a long way to destroy liberal education," Stimson replied: "Temporarily, yes, so far as able-bodied men of college age are concerned, but in the long run, emphatically, no." time have the chance to become commissioned officers. It was explained the armed forces will utilize resources of the nation's colleges and universities "to maintain a steady flow of young men suitable for specialized educational technical training." The educational program is a result of the recent amendment to the selective service and training act which reduced the draft age to 18 and eliminated "the principal source of men college students." Major differences between the army and navy educational programs was that the navy will accept for technical training high school graduates or students with equivalent formal education who are 17 years old and have their parents' permission to enlist. The joint army-navy announcement stated that selection of the colleges and universities under the educational program "will be governed by the facilities available for their responsible participation in the educational training program." Procedure for selection of the colleges will be "announced shortly," it was added. Educators To Discuss Plans For New System Topека, (Ins.)—State School educators will meet here Friday to formulate plans to permit high-grade 17-year-olds who are high school seniors, to go to college for the rest of this school year so they may have some college credits before going into the service.

Thompson and Dr. John Frye of the state geological survey returned recently from Wichita, where they visited the survey's branch office and made arrangements for the reorganization of well cuttings in the Wichita office in order to be of assistance to oil companies during the war. They arranged to consolidate part of the private collection of well-cuttings owned by Walter Ver Wiebe, chairman of the department of geology at Wichita University, with those in the repository of the Wichita branch office. "The importance of the well-cutting library is much greater during this period than ever before, due to the fact that the intensified search for oil necessitates the re-study of older cuttings by oil company and consulting geologists." Dr. Frye stated.

TRANSPORTATION MASSACHUSETTS 2015 UNION PACIFIC STAGES PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THURSDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1942 Jayhawkers Need Improving--Allen By BILL PORTER "We will be lucky to win any basketball games back East," Coach F. C. Allen declared today, "unless we improve quite a bit in our fundamentals." The Jayhawks will leave Lawrence Dec. 22 for four road games, against St. Bonaventure son Square Garden, St. Josep at Buffalo, Fordham in Madison Square Garden, St. Joseph's at Philadelphia and St. Louis University at St. Louis. Next home game will be with the Olathe Clippers Jan. 4. Creighton, perennial Missouri Valley champ, showed superior teamwork and experience in defeating the Jayhawks 38-33 in Hoch auditorium Tuesday evening. This marks the third home-court defeat for the Kansans since 1938, and the fifth victory for Creighton in the eight-game series with the University. Creighton Much Better Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen said that his five lost to a much better ball club. The Jayhawkers' lack of experience was evident, he pointed out, and they failed to use the "proper fundamentals at the right time." Creighton was smart enough to capitalize on these mistakes. The contest provided some thrills for the 1,900 fans who attended. The Bluejays drew first blood as Langer scored a field goal in the opening seconds of play. John Buescher and Bob Fitzpatrick got two and one points respectively on fouls, and Charlie Black tossed in a setup to give Kansas a 5-2 lead. Then the game settled down with both teams scoring evenly from set plays, and the half ended in a 17-17 draw. Pull Away in Second Half The Creighton squad showed the Jayhawkers their heels in the second period to chalk up an early eight-point lead, and Kansas did not even the score again. The Bluejays were six points ahead with five minutes left to play, when Buescher and Jack Ballard sank a field goal apiece to spark a Kansas rally that brought the spectators to their feet. The loss of Bill Brill, sophomore guard who is out with a knee injury, was felt keenly, Dr. Allen said. But the inexperienced Kansas squad was unable to follow up, and soon lost the ball along with any further scoring possibility.

The Athletic board, admitting the need for slashes, has not acted on Hurt's request. It does not know where the cash to pay Hurt's $6,000 salary will come from next year, the board yet hesitates to accept his walking papers. With football almost certainly tabbed as a war casualty, there will be no income to pay even Athletic Director's Gwinn Henry's $7,000 salary. The Athletic board has a Hurt-promoted opportunity to cut $6,000 from 1943 expenditures that has not been aced—yet. - * * * More Hard Work Needed In losing to a good Creighton five Tuesday Kansas dropped its first home game since the end of the 1940-41 season. The Jayhawkers also lost much of their pre-season prestige, as Kansas' famed teamwork and fast break flopped Tuesday. No baskets were scored on the fast break. Jayhawk teams of other years fire wagoned to numerous two-pointers. The four-game Eastern road trip this month may teach the JayLawks the value of teamwork and coordination. During the second half especially, Kansas appeared leaderless, and awkward. The return of Brill probably as a replacement for Armand Dixon at guard, will steady the Jayhawks on the Eastern swing. High scoring Otto Schnellbacher who fumbled all over the court will get much-needed experience. Oldest University in Country Harvard University is the oldest men's university in the United States.

Kappa Kappa Gamma, Kappa Alpha Theta and Alpha Delta Pi emerged victors in women's intramural basketball games in the last two nights. The Theta's didn't play as smooth a game as usual, but managed in the last few minutes to win from the Pi Phi's 20-13. Betty Roberts made 11 points for the Theta's. Peggy Davis, also a Theta forward, was unable to connect with the basket but played a good game. Outstanding players for the Pi Phi's were forward Jill Peck, and guard Bel Claycomb. Kappa Kappa Gamma defeated Chi Omega 18-6 in a hard-fought game. The Kappa's outplayed their opponents throughout. Eleven of the Kappa's 18 points were credited to Margaret Butler. Peggy Ballard's able guarding kept the Chi O score low. Alpha Delta Pi won from Miller hall 28-10, although the score at the half was 7-6. Miller was handicapped by having only five on the team. Ruth Sheppard made all Miller's points with her one-handed shot. Betty Bacon put up an effective defense for Alpha Delta Pi. Outstanding A D Pi player was Thelma Stutz.

Opportunities Offered In Naval Intelligence School CITIES SERVICE PRODUCTS Opportunities for non-scientific students at the University of Kansas to enter military service as naval intelligence officers have been presented through a letter from President Robert L. Stearns of the University of Colorado to Chancellor Deane W. Malott. The U. S. Navy established a Japanese language school at the University of Colorado last summer which is giving an eight The U. S. Navy of the University of Colorado is to twelve months' training in Japanese to some of the ablest college men in the country. The men are enlisted as yeomen and upon successful completion of the course are commissioned in the United States Naval Reserve, and it is assumed that they will put their knowledge of Japanese to work as naval intelligence officers. The needs of the Southwest Pacific for naval officers who can handle the Japanese language are urgent. 209 Already Enrolled Approximately 200 language students are now studying in the Colorado School, and the number is to be substantially increased in January. Any University of Kansas students interested, therefore are urged to make immediate application directly to the University of Colorado. Full information as to details may be obtained at the office of Chancellor Malott. Applicants must be between the ages of 20 and 30. While a general admission requirement is a previous study of Chinese, this requirement may be waved in exceptional cases for students who have received their college degrees with Phi Beta Kappa standing. Also in exceptional cases, students who have a background of Torrance Visits University According to Mr. Torrance's report we are passing the ammunition at a great rate.

Pay Begins Immediately Pay and allowance will begin from the first day of instruction. Naval agents will be paid at the rate of $125 per month. Yeoman, second class, on active duty will receive a base pay of $96 per month, and his residence is in one of the University of Colorado Buildings, board, room and medical attention will be met by direct payment from the Navy to the University. Married students will receive a subsistence allowance of $82.50 per month and out of the total remuneration of $178.50 per month, they are expected to meet their total living expenses.

The gist of one section of this bill is: legal authorization for compulsory nation-wide job registration of all women of reasonable working age." Thus ran a portion of an article in a recent issue of a women's magazine. On top of such reports, Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt's recent comments upon the vital roles which British women are now playing in the war effort have placed increased emphasis upon women's importance in winning the conflict. Registration of women, and their conscription which would probably soon follow,would be principally for the task of meeting industrial labor needs. If the move were made without qualification, it would be a serious handicap to American universities, already faced with the loss of a good share of their male students. Conscription of women students, however would seem at present to be an unnecessary move. No really intensive campaign has been made to bring women into war work on a voluntary basis. Such a drive might very well bring into the industrial fold a sufficient number of women workers, so that those women in school could remain at their studies. It is important that these women remain at their studies if at all possible. With men being called from school, a large share of the intellectual burden of post-war America must fall upon the shoulders of the female population. To call the women from school, too, would leave the country totally unprepared in leadership for those problems which must be met following the war, and which require educated minds if solutions are to be adequate. It would seem that an intensive, highly-publicized campaign for women volunteers in war work should be first tried by government officials. If that fails and compulsory measures must be adopted, then the importance of the education being received by women in the universities should not be overlooked. Men are vanishing from universities, and it is up to women to hold up the intellectual front. More Steaks for America; But Less for Students Your Tuesday night T-bone has been replaced by chuck; your Sunday baked chicken has given way to a modest round steak; and your Wendesaay hamburger plate has disappeared in favor of macaroni and cheese, if you are co-operating in Secretary of Agriculture Claude Wickard's attempt to limit meat consumption to $ 2 \frac{1}{2} $ pounds a week per capita. Perhaps you are wondering why there is not so much meat for you as there was before the war. The hog crop will be the largest ever grown in any country in all the world's history, and will produce about two billion pounds more pork than last year. Beef production is up. Government estimates indicate that there will be available for domestic consumption this year 130 pounds of meat per capita after all war demands are met. This is about the same Just Wondering How the habitual hitch-hiker will make his homeward sojourn for Christmas this year? --amount we had on the average from 1931 to 1940. But wait a minute. Although there has been only $2\frac{1}{2}$ pounds of meat a week per person available for the last 12 years, not everybody has been eating his "quota." In the pre-war years Joe Doakes from across the tracks was making only $11 a week at the mill, and Mrs. Doakes found it next to impossible to include meat on the menus made to fit Joe's pay check. Now Joe is making money and he and his wife are ready to eat those steaks they have wanted so long. War workers must have substantial food. Eat your macaroni and cheese, students, and thank God that Joe Doakes from across the tracks and his 15,000,000 brothers are getting good food at last.J.C. A Rome radio news item: "Chiang Kai-shek has been accepted into the Jewish faith. The chief rabbi of Shanghai made a special trip by monoplane to officiate at the ceremony." "A tentative agreement has been reached on virtually all issues in dispute with the exception of wages, hours, and union security," it was announced following a mediation meeting of meat packers and their employers. Which is very much like a football story without the score.

Though eyes be glued shut with sleep, weary arms are able to go automatically through the motions of twisting strands of hair into tiny curls and then thrusting a bobby- or hair-pin into it. Alpha Chi Omega: Margaret Welsh told weird ghost stories to a shivering group of listeners. Kappa Kappa Gamma: The girls held a song practice during the blackout. Immediately after they decided not to have a serenade, anyway. Chi Omega: The girls gathered in the basement and had a song fest. It is rumored that one or two of the girls were too curious about the blackout and watched from upstairs. If warden Margaret Krieder only knew! Alpha Delta Pi: Sang while Barbara Ann Hays froze on the roof. The girls put a sweater on her and made her air patrol. Sigma Kappa: Keeping with the trend, the girls had a song fest. Sig Ep: Claim they did nothing worse than have a bull session in Paul Turner's room. Theta: Had a black-out party in the basement. Lots of food. Teke's and ATO's watched in front of the house—also merged in a slight snowball fight with the Sigma Chi's. SIGMA CHI's: Claimed they had a snowball fight with ATO, but it known figure who turned out to be the senior air warden of the Theta house. Delta Chi: Broke an ash tray in the front room while wrestling un- known opponents. They also threw snowballs at an approaching un- known figure who turned out to be the senior air warden fo the block. Beta's: They say they sat around the house. Delta Tau Delta: Bill Mcntire organized a quartette and as soon as the blackout was over, this little group sang, "When the Lights Go On Again All Over the World." Phi Delt's: Engaged in something new—a water fight. **DU:** Could it have been they who accidentally threw snowballs at the campus cop in front of Bailey laboratories? Kappa Sig's: They claimed they played the Phi Gam's in basketball in Robinson gym. Mighty peculiar. Phi Psi's: The outcome of their snowball fight with Hopkins hall is still being debated. Pi Kappa Alpha: Curious, they claim they had a snowball fight with the Beta's. Tsk, tsk, and the Beta's say they sat around the house. Sigma Nu: Were the other half of the Delta Gamma serenade. Les Thornton, air warden, helped watch the Delta Gamma house. Sig Alph's: Evidently had a slight mad-house, since they ran around either tripping each other or pouncing on unsuspecting members. Phi Gamma Delta: Joe Stryker, air warden, went slightly crazy looking for a light that was reported to be on someplace on second floor. Still, if it hadn't been for closing hours——! ! ! ! NOCTURNAL ORDEAL The Ritual of Womankind Fixing Hair BY A WOMAN Oh, men may sing of a daring fling, And the deed of great renown; But I will sing of the sweet young thing, Whose glory is in her crown. Her work she plies and ever tries To make her crown more fair; Her work she plies and never shies From putting up her hair. Hence the moral of my lay: What price beauty? Who can say. Neither war, nor famine, flood nor man, can keep a woman from putting up her hair. It is one of those essential acts, like sleeping and eating, without which the woman would curl up and die.

Two points in particular about this year's Kansan are worth mentioning. ★ First, the staff of the Kansan should be commended on their excellent coverage of foreign and local news. The facts are accurate and written in a concise yet interesting manner. I enjoy the news of "coming events," (and incidentally, such a column in calendar form would certainly be convenient), the frequent feature articles, and of course the regular sport and "gossip" columns. The recent contract with INS is also noteworthy. Secondly, the editorial page shines above all. With reference to the recent article, December 13, in which the editor and Dean Sims give an excellent first-hand report on conditions in restaurants surrounding the University, the editorial staff places the Kansan in the category of "progressive" newspapers. Articles such as this, and those dealing with the recent MSC "controversy," and the up-to-date news regarding the status of reserves all serve to reveal assuringly that the Kansan is more than a social "rag." Finally, taking into consideration the adverse weather conditions and shortage of labor, I'd like to comment on the comparatively good delivery service. It is consistent with the fine work being done by the Kansan. Le Cercle Francais Holds Annual Christmas Party French Christmas carols were sung and poems were read by members of Le Cercle Francais at the annual Christmas party at 4:30 p.m. yesterday in Room 113 of Frank Strong hall. Bud Lampert Members taking part in the carol singing were Evelyn Treger, fine arts freshman, and Marjory Dickey, College sophomore. French poem readings were given by Catherina Fruin, education junior; Frances Morrill, College sophomore; and Elizabeth Prentice, College freshman. Following the program, refreshments were served in keeping with the French Christmas season. HOLD JOHNSON--sung by Robert Jenkins, Floyd Krehbiel, and Harry Johnson. (continued from page one) 16, 1877, at Portsmouth, Ohio. His family later moved to Meriden. Conn. Wrote Poems and Prose He had several poems and prose writings published. While at Yale Mr. Johnson won the Cook Poetry prize in 1905 with a poem entitled, "Ostia." Other poems were published in the Yale Literary magazine, Yale Anthology of Verse and in volumes of Kansas poetry. Prose writings by Dr. Johnson were book reviews in the Saturday Review of Literature and a volume entitled, "Thomas Carlyle: A Study of His Literary Apprenticeship, 1814-1831." Organizations Professor Johnson belonged to and offices held were president, University chapter of Phi Beta Kappa; president, Kansas College Teachers of English; Modern Language Association of America; Modern Humanities Research association, American Association of University Professors; Society of Midland Authors; vestry of Trinity Episcopal church; Lawrence Country club; University club; and Fortnightly club. Professor Johnson married Miss Claudia Pendleton of Lawrence June 19, 1920. He is survived by his widow, one brother. Sherman F. Johnson, Meriden, Conn.; and two nephews, Foster M.

Visitors welcome School at 7th & Louisiana St CONCERT TO RODEO---sung by Robert Jenkins, Floyd Krehbiel, and Harry Johnson. (continued from page one) spring concert will be played next March." Lawson Sings "Old Man River" The program was divided into three parts. The full concert band contributed the first part, high lights of which included the Celtic "Northward March" of Eric Coates, the clashing "Jericho" of Morton Gould, and Louis Alter's "Manhattan Serenade." David T. Lawson, baritone, scored in "Old Man River." A comedy skit, "Little Brown Jug Goes to Town," was the dramatization of a rehearsal full of many mishaps, missed cues, and wrong entrance. The whole band seemingly has a peeve at Conrad Crocker, and wouldn't let him perform on the niccolo. Because of illness, Allen Crafton did not appear in two songs of the first world war, but as a compliment to Mr. Crafton, the band played one of these songs, "Over There." "White Christmas" brought out an unaccompanied alto trumpet solo by Wallace Kunkel, a soprano solo by June Hammett, and "Sister act" harmony by the Misses Hammett, Gerry Shaw, and Barbara Hahn. Scars. Rhodes Twirl Batons A variation came in the exhibition of electric and fire baton twirling by William Sears and George Rhoades. Sears produced patterns of kaleid-osopic beauty with his electric baton, while Rhoades twirled the fire baton keeping alert through side-stepping of apparent danger. Mr. Wiley's players next quieted immediately the noisy audience with Bach's "Toccata and Fugue in D minor." "Toccata" is admirably suited to symphonic presentation. Part three featured the K U Cowboy band, a picked group which has played for rodeos throughout the west and southwest. They gave a sample of the music they presented for these events, a snappy, blue-streak type of music. The boys were garbed in colorful cowboy outfits, and Mr. Wiley wore a tan costume and gave a step-by-step description of the several events of the redeoMr. Lawson had two featured spots in this portion of the bill. He sang "Wagon Wheels," "Empty Saddles," and "My Buddy." Another popular item was "Jingle, Jangle, Jingle," Part two consisted of just one item, the depiction of a circus entirely by percussion instruments. The performers responsible were Rod Weltmer, Joe Beeler, Robert Jenkins, Maurice Beardmore, and Melvin Zack. Cowboy Band Clorful Representatives Of State Civil Service Interview Applicants Two members of the state civil service have been on the University campus all day today giving interviews to applicants for clerical positions at the University. All persons being interviewed took the examination on November 28. The civil service members have had their headquarters for the day in Room 6 of Green hall. Bailey Laboratory Halls Are Renovated The most recent improvement in the pharmacy and chemistry building, Bailey laboratories, is the complete renovation of all the halls. The walls have been painted pale green and the ceilings white. All staircases and hall floors have been refinished. On the first floor, the pharmacy and biochemistry dispensing room has been partitioned off for the two departments, and each half of the room has been remodeled. (continued from page six) sy, but at least the hair has been put up. NOCTURNAL ORDEAL--sung by Robert Jenkins, Floyd Krehbiel, and Harry Johnson. Types of Hair-Putter-Uppers The way in which a woman puts up her hair is usually character-revealing. The man-catching, aren't-I-cute kind will spend long minutes, even hours before a mirror carefully screwing each piece of hair in place and noting the geneal effect after each pinning. She often utilizes her time by practicing dimples, smiles, lash-lowerings or -flickerings in the mirror before her. The busy I - haven't - got - time - for - this - foolishness - but - I've - got - to - look - halfway - decent - tomorrow type will often place the box of pins within reach of her desk or chair and go right on working, occasionally fixing a curl. This process sometimes covers an evening, but the loss of time is negligible. Beautification Is Not All Varying shades of personal interest and energy fall between these two extremes. Every hand motion, every look reveals the woman. And blow that it is to masculine ego, woman do not put up their hair exclusively for them. Men might enter into the scheme of things, women preferring to look as good as possible to the men they work with or date, but if all men were transported far beyond the northern sea, as Rachel suggested, women would still put up their hair. This evening ritual is more than a matter of beautification—it is inextricably tied up with pride, self-confidence, and keeping up with the other woman. Women put up their hair at night and go to bed looking like a Zulu with a hangover, emerging the next day with an immaculate, becoming hair-do. They think it's worth it. And so do men. BUY WAR STAMPS The program reached a patriotic climax with the official songs of the army, marines, and navy: "U. S. Field Artillery," "Marine Hymn," "Anchors Aweigh," and finally "America," chanted by Danny Bachmann to an organ-like accompaniment.

A trophy For Dating? Men in one of the roaming houses at the University of Oklahoma have copied the Hollywood "Oscar" idea. Their "Oscar" in the form of a penguin was awarded to the man who held the semester record for dating more girls and keeping them all happy than anyone in the house. The penguin isn't a permanent trophy, however, and the recipient must keep up his record in order to hold the "Oscar."

W. Hibbard, assistant professor of zoology and curator of the Museum of Vertebrate Paleontology at Dyche museum, has received letters and books from two former students now in Australia. Lt. Ralph Taylor, who left a year ago to join the Army air corps. has written several letters to Professor Hibbard describing interesting animals and plants that he has seen. Lieutenant Taylor majored in zoology on the Hill. V. C. Mahon, who left the University a week after the bombing at Pearl Harbor had been in the navy four years before attending Kansas. He now is a boat's mate, second class, and is on the west coast after a convoy trip. He sent books and magazines from Australia to Hibbard. The books are on bird and animal life, on ocean and land shells, on fossils, and on the coral reefs. Mahon also sent a menu from an Australian restaurant, some popular magazines, and two records of Australian war songs. Home Economics Club Tours Spooner-Thayer The Home Economics club took a tour through Spooner-Thayer museum yesterday afternoon, to acquaint new students with the museum. A tour similar to this one is taken every four years so as to reach all students in the department. Ina Claire Livinggood, Florence Harris, and Frances Kolsky explained different items; conducted the tour. The club looked at early American and foreign glassware, at pottery, and at the several steps in making Chinese prints. Also because it is so near Christmas, they looked at the Italian nativity scene which is one of the specialities in the museum. Miss Elizabeth Meguar accompanied the group on the tour.

For the year, 1940-41, there were 118 men representing 4.2 per cent of the men in the student body living in residence halls. In 1941-42 this percentage increased to 6.4 and for this semester 8.5 per cent or 180 men students are living in residence halls. A "ROAD TO MOROCCO" BING BOB DOROTHY CROSBY·HOPE·LAMOUR A PALM MOUNT PICTURE Student owned and operated cooperative houses have grown from the 1.5 percentage of 1940-41 to 4.3 per cent this semester.

Said one University administrator of the complex document: "I've read it four times, and I'm still not certain I understand it." Some things appear certain, however. Almost all the army reserve will be called at the end of this semester. No distinction is made for the army air corps $ \textcircled{*} $ is made for the army an corps. All, except the physically unfit and the students in the Navy V-1 and V-7 plans, will be in the armed forces or on active duty at the completion of the next semester. Several Groups Back School officials expressed the opinion that enrollment the next semester would not drop as much as was expected. University officials have interpreted the Manpower Commission's rulings as allowing several large groups of students to continue their education for the next semester. Included in these groups are medical and pre-medical students, junior engineers (senior engineers are not mentioned explicitly, but it is expected that they, too, will be allowed to continue), naval reservists, and senior ROTC students in advanced courses (including those in the ERC). The Manpower Commission's plan embodies an arrangement whereby selected students will be sent back (continued to page two) Organize Third Class For Women Chemists The demand for women chemists has practically doubled during the past few months according to Dr. R. Q. Brewster, chairman of the department of chemistry. To supply the need of trained women chemists for war industries, a third class for women in The Chemistry and Manufacture of Explosives will be started Dec. 28. Dr. G. W. Stratton professor of chemistry, will teach the new class which will last eight weeks from 6:30 p.m. until 10:00 p.m., five nights a week. The first part of each period will be devoted to lecture and demonstration. The latter part will be work in the laboratory, the content being directly related with the work done at the Sunflower Ordnance Works. The courses in analysis of powder and materials that make up explosives are open to any woman from 18 to 65. Instruction is suited to employment in the SOW. The United States Bureau of Education pays the cost of laboratory material so there is no expense to students. Mr. L. H. Bradford, technical director of the Hercules Powder Company, visited the two classes which were organized early this week. Members of Senate Hear Military Edict At the special meeting of the University Senate called for this afternoon, Chancellor Deane W. Malott was scheduled to outline in detail the government's action announced yesterday with respect to reservists, to the University faculty. No items for Senate action were slated to be brought up, but it was assumed that a general discussion would follow the Chancellor's presentation of the military edict. Hospital Exhausts A Years' Excuse Supply Students who have been sick may have a hard time explaining their absences from class in the immediate future if the hospital doesn't get more excuse blanks. Students Protest Short Vacation Approximately one out of every three students at Hamilton college is taking special work intended to prepare him for military service. It was announced at the hospital this morning that the usual number of excuses used in a year have already been given out, that a little more than a third of the school year is gone, and the hospital is consequently just about out. Take Special Work City Dairymen Seek Price Hike For Retail Milk The present milk crisis began Dec. 9 when the county health unit revoked the Fritzel Dairy license to sell milk in Lawrence. Fritzel admitted using other than grade A (continued to page two) A request for permission from the OPA to raise the ceiling price of milk for Lawrence will probably be the next step in the attempt to solve the city's milk shortage, according to a statement of Clarence Gorrill, city attorney. If the increase is granted, Lawrence distributors would be able to compete with other communities who are paying better prices for grade A milk. University students held mass meetings this morning and afternoon before the Chancellor's office protesting the four-day Christmas vacation. Action on a compulsory program was urged after the OPA cut civilian meat quotas for the first quarter of 1943, which will reduce the voluntary ration from 2.8 lb. a week to 2.3 lb., and authorized packers to begin deliveries on their next quarter's quota on December 20—twelve days early. Washington, (INS) — Pressing for prompt institution of a meat rationing program, agriculture department officials today said that the present meat shortage will "never be met except by rationing" and questioned OPA's slowness in taking such a step. Compulsory Meat Rationing Favored A crowd of approximately 1,000 students overrode requests of Vernon McKale, president of MSC, to disband. Refusing the Draft Boards Defer Until Semester End Washington—(INS)Draft boards throughout the country today were under orders of Manpower Chief Paul V. McNutt to defer until the end of the present semester, March 1, 1943 all medical, dental, veterinary and engineering students who have completed at least one year of study. The order was issued after the army and navy announced A new armory is being constructed at the University of Maryland. This year for the first time, the audience will have a part in the services. Following anthems by the a cappella choir and just before the presentation of the living tableaux on the smaller stage, Dean D. M Swarthout will lead the audience in Carols Ring from Dyche As Prelude to Vespers The program will begin promptly at four o'clock with an organ number, "Carillon," depicting the ringing of bells, played by Prof. Laurel E. Anderson. As a prelude to the Christmas vespers at Hoch auditorium on Sunday afternoon, Christmas carols will be broadcast over the valley from the tower of Dyche museum. A quartet of trombone and trumpets will play Christmas songs from the outside balcony of Hoch auditorium as the audience gathers for the service. Chime carols will be softly broadcast inside the auditorium just preceding the serv-* ice to the audience assembled there. army and navy announced that qualified youths in the armed forces would be sent to college to continue their education. a verse from some of the better known Christmas hymns. The string section of the University Symphony orchestra will be seated on the main floor in the front of the auditorium and will play while the free-will offering is taken for the Fine Arts Scholarship fund. The Jay James will assist in taking the offering and giving out of programs. Marshals for the afternoon in charge of general arrangements will be Prof. E. Thayer Gaston and Prof. Russel L. Wiley. The service will be broadcast over station KFKU. Under the plan, the army and navy will contract for the facilities of a selected number of colleges and universities. The announcement said that the army and navy announced that resources of the nations colleges and universities will be utilized to "maintain the steady flow young men suitable for specialized educational technical training." It was estimated that the number of men to be so detailed would number 250.000. They will attend the institutions in uniform and on military pay.

On Malott's appearance, the students cheered and sat down in the A committee of student leaders was formed from the mass of students at 3:30 this afternoon to meet with Chancellor Malott to discuss the action. The remainder of the students left Frank Strong hall before the committee meeting at the Chancellor's request. Members of the committee were Bob Frizell, Danny Bachmann, Bud French, Margaret Fesler, Betty Lou Perkins, Max Webster, Dorothy Catlett, Carol Stuart, and Ralph Michener. A student committee which conferred with the Chancellor on the holiday question asked permission to sit in at a meeting of the University Senate at 3:30 today. Chancellor Malott refused this request on the ground that students have never appeared at Senate meetings. After this, the committee went to Dean Lawson, who talked with Malott. As a result of the conference, Malott informed the committee that he would "mention" its request for the holiday to be extended to include Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of next week, but that little or nothing would come of it. hall to listen.

The assault on Dec. 17 was carried out by a force of Army flying fortresses escorted by American fighter, planes, but results were not reported. The United States planes have been pounding the Jap base at Manila daily for more than a week, in a drive aimed at wiping out this Japanese threat to Guadalcanal, 145 miles to the southeast. PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS (1) 40% of the total sales are from domestic customers. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1942 Bleak Holiday Season No Tree Lights Lawrence wears a rather bleak Christmas face this year. The government commanded "lights out," and innumerable strings of multicolored stars and star brackets went into storage on the top floor of the Lawrence National Bank building for the duration of the war. All that remains of previous years' decorations are twenty-four large metal candles and unlighted evergreen ropes and trees along Massachusetts' white way. What Lawrence lacks in decoration, though, it is going to make up in Christmas spirit. The Santa Claus parade; group carolling in the residential sections, and a community sing broadcast over WREN are major parts of festivities planned by the Chamber of Commerce. A Christmas fund is specifically set up each year as part of the Community Chest to pay expenses. Contributors have a choice of having their money used that way. Santa Arrives in Sleigh In laying plans, even a white Christmas has been ordered by W. B. Dalton, parade organizer, for Santa Claus' arrival this afternoon at 4 o'clock. St. Nick will ride in a sleigh pulled by two registered chestnut mares, and escorted by twelve other horses. One of the escort horses has that name "White Christmas." Parade Has Many Features Santa's sleigh is a two-seater, rare in the United States. It was purchased in Leavenworth from Bayer Brothers, a carriage-making firm whose special form of craftsmanship has been handed down from generation to generation for 85 years. Parade Has Many Features Other features of the parade include a trio of "gasless carriages," and a float designed by Bernard "Foco" Frazier, of the University art department, for the nativity scene posed and costumed by Girl Scouts. There were no pet entries for children this year. The gasless carriages are a bicycle-wheeled roadster, a trap (two-wheeled, one-horse carriage on 'springs'), and a phaeton (light, four-wheeled buggy). Each of the last two has a history almost as typically Christmas as Santa Claus himself. The phaeton was purchased for $1200 in New York fifty years ago by R. A. Long, and brought back as a gift to his wife. She used it to show horses. The trap was made in Emporia but remained in stock there for the same fifty years, until it was purchased brand-new within the past year by Fritz Meyn. The float will be used again Monday and Tuesday, Dec. 21 and 22, for carolling excursions being arranged by the Ministerial Alliance of the city. It will probably travel through the residential sections and stop every few blocks. Wednesday evening it will park in front of the Wren building for the community sing. Santa Claus will be present at Wren building again Wednesday evening during the sing for the children in the crowd. Participants, many of them expected to be University students, will gather at 7:30, and the program will go on the air promptly at 8 o'clock. Education Carries on In Russia In 1942, 170,000 students were graduated from colleges in the Soviet Union. Former Kansans Now With Army Engaged In Camouflage Work Arthur Berger, who was graduated from the University in 1925, is at Fort Belvoir, Va., the largest camouflage school in the nation, teaching camouflage to U. S. engineers stationed there. Berger studied landscape architecture at Harvard, and before the war was a prominent landscape architect in Toledo, Ohio. Three men formerly connected with the University are now engaged in camouflage work for the army, according to word received recently by Dr. A. J. Mix, chairman of the botany department here. W. B. Durell, former instructor in the botany department here, is now engaged in camouflage work in Norfolk. Va. In a letter to Dr. Mix, Durell stated that on one project alone he had planted 125,000 trees. George M. Fisher, landscape gardener at the University last year, is working in camouflage at Syracuse, N. Y. (continued from page one) to the Universities in uniform for advanced training. OUTLINE PLANS--is now used to choose candidates for officers' training. The navy's plan differs only slightly. Medical students will be placed on active duty at the end of the next semester and then will be returned to medical schools in uniform. Naval reservists in V-1 and V-7 will be allowed to continue past the next semester for a number of semesters which will be determined by their classification in school. Not Yet Named Not Yet Named Schools to be included in the service education plan have not as yet been selected. This University is among those which have applied for consideration as a training school, and Raymond Nichols, executive secretary to the Chancellor, is at present engaged in filling out detailed information blanks required by the Manspower Commission. Under present plans the army and navy will contract for college facilities at which qualified young men are to be trained following their 13 weeks basic training period. Men numbering approximately 250,000 under these programs will be uniformed. Army men who have completed or are completing their basic training may apply for the specialized training. Selection of men will be made in much the same manner as May Apply for Training UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Subscription rates, in advance, $3.00 per person, $1.75 per semester.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN NATIONAL EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION 1942 Active Member Rommel's Rear Guard Trapped By Eighth Army The battle which Field Marshal Erwin Rommell strove so hard to escape broke out in Triportitania today, as General Sir Bernard Law Montgomery and his British Eighth Army clashed with remnants of the Axis rear guard trapped at Wardi Matratin in one of the most brilliant offensive coups of the war. An official announcement from Cairo said that heavy fighting rages in the vicinity of Zautaen Nofilia 95 miles west of El Agheila. Active war news on other fronts meanwhile was sparse. The Royal Air Force meanwhile carried out a 400 plane raid on northwestern Germany, and British marines sank 3 Axis supply ships in the Mediterranean. American fighter and bomber planes heavily attacked Japanese bases at Honai. French Indo-China, Allied jungle fighters inched forward on New Guinea, and Soviet troops carried their fighting to Byell on the bleak plains of the Dvina River, only 75 miles from Smolensk. The army-navy training plan will operate on a basis of three 16-week semesters. The administration pointed out that the shortening of the University Christmas vacation has already made such a policy practicable at this college. "We hit the nail on the head in that respect," said Nichols yesterday. He pointed out that few additional changes will have to be made by the University if it becomes one of the technical training sites. Liberal Arts 'Remains' Dean Paul B. Lawson of the College of Liberal Arts yesterday declared that while some University departments must be decreased in importance, that many will receive even greater emphasis.

Malott received word today of the serious illness of his father, M. H. Malott, president of the Citizens' National Bank, of Abilene. He planned to leave today immediately after the men's student convocation to be with his father. It is expected by school officials that, should the University be chosen as a training base, the studies of army men on the Hill will be closely regimented, but that naval trainees will have more choice in their selection of studies. This, it is expected, will keep many of the less technical departments going. play a large part in the new training program if it comes to this Campus. "And then, too," it was declared, "there are always the women students, the men under 18, and other men students not in uniform whose needs must be met." CITY DAIRYMEN--- (continued from page one) milk, which is a violation of the city ordinance. By this action, the city was deprived of about 3,000 quarts daily, or approximately 40 per cent of the daily consumption. Many people were without milk entircly, and all the available supply was bought up quickly. The Jayhawk and Lawrence Sanitary dairies had many calls, but were able to supply only their regular customers. On Dec. 11, the city council passed a resolution permitting grade C milk to be sold. It must not, however, be pasteurized in the same equipment as grade A. This concession will not relieve the shortage, since grade C milk costs local plants more than grade A. and they must charge one cent less for it than for grade A as provided in OPA regulations. Thus the solution to the problem awaits the OPA's granting of the pending request for a raised ceiling price. VARSITY 10c Shows 2-7-9 20c TODAY THRU SATURDAY School Boys Smash Enemy Saboteurs!

Kenny Johnson did most of the rebounding, played a bang-up floor game, and collected eight points to pace the Phi Gam's to an easy victory. The Hinshaw brothers, Wally and Curt, with eight and seven points and Larry McSpadden with his long range shooting sparked the Phi Gam victory. Stream Stars For Sig Eps Star performers for the losers and the outstanding player of the evening, Larry Stream collected 10 points, stole the ball, snagged his share of rebounds and was the only trouble maker whom the Fiji's could not stop. Alpha Chi Sigma defeated Jolllife hall 30-25 in a slow moving game. Harold Wright led the chemists to their victory with nine points. Tom Porter followed him closely with eight points. These two quarterbacked the chemists to victory. Bill Stephens collected seven points and was high point man for Jolliffe. Milford Kaufman was Jolliffe's floor general. ATO Defeats Delta Tau The Ramblers won their second game of the season defeating Allen Semi-co-op 37 to 14. ATO breezed past Delta Tau Delta 57-14. Three players divided scoring honors for ATO. Charles Ise, Joe Holt, and Don Williams collected eight points apiece. Hoyt Baker was high point man for the Delt's with four points. Dick Spencer with 10 points was the big gun in the Ramblers offensive. Don Ash collected eight points on tipins. The Ramblers looked much better last night than they did earlier in the season and may cause some trouble in their division but they do not stack up as championship material now. Rudy Savely Reported Killed in New Guinea Lloyd Irwin "Rudy" Savely, former student from Greensburg, was reported killed in action recently on the New Guinea front, where he was serving as a bomber pilot in the Army Air Force, according to word received here. Savely left school a year ago to join the air force. He was a geology major, and would have finished school last February. In addition to being a member of the Men's Student Council and an officer in the Republican Club, he was a KuKu, and a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon. BUY WAR STAMPS . . .

Missouri, Iowa State, Nebraska and Kansas State will lose players also. The Cystal Ball --intramural volleyball play begins next week with games scheduled for Monday and Tuesday night. Coaching contracts of Phog Allen and Bill Hargiss have been renewed July 1 each year. If Kansas sports fold for the duration they will be jobless as coaches. However, both men are excellent instructors in physical education. If the University is designated by the Manpower board as one of the approximately 200 colleges for training service men a rigorous conditioning program will be necessary. Supervising this program would probably require the full time of Dr. Allen, Hargiss, Henry Shenk and R. R. Strait. Veenker Stops Frost Play Bogey man for all Big Six basketball freshmen is George Veenker, director of athletics at Iowa State, who more than anyone else stopped the "make freshmen eligible now" movement at the Kansas City athletic directors' meeting two weeks ago. Veenker had attended the Big Ten meeting that voted freshmen eligible only for spring sports this season. He moved that the Big Six do likewise. Conference athletic directors accepted Veenker's proposal for submission to Big Six athletic representatives. The rule makers followed the recommendation. So in order not to "straddle the already opened basketball season," many freshmen who will be in the services by February sit on the sidelines still going through the motions of frosh cage practice. The Pacific Coast, Southwest, Southern and Southeast conferences have recently made freshmen eligible for basketball.

(Special) — No matter what course the Big Six may take, Iowa State College will continue to support a fun program of inter-collegiate athletics. "We will compete in all sports so long as we have the manpower, can get competition and are allowed to travel." George F. Veenker, director of athletics, said following a meeting of the athletic council. "We feel that this generation of college students is entitled to the same advantages in the lines of athletic competition as those of a few years ago. When those advantages can also make a contribution to our war effort, we see no reason to curtail our activities. If the time comes that we feel we are not helping our men prepare themselves to be better soldiers, then we will think of quitting," Veenker said.

A gas explosion that does good by making the most valuable smoke cloud in the world, a mass of pure carbon black, has been perfected at the University of Kansas. materials, for the particles are so small, averaging one-eight-hundred-millionth of an inch in diameter, that a single cubic inch of the stuff, if spread one particle thick, would cover a field 200 feet long and 170 feet wide. The new method obtains 30 pounds of carbon black from 1000 cubic feet of gas; where present industrial methods recover only from one-half to two pounds. The explosion also ties in with a chance to reduce the serious wartime shortage of chlorine. Chlorine, a green gas sometimes called the Green Goddess, is a familiar war gas, city water and swimming pool purifier. It has been used for colds. It is one of the essential war chemicals. Chlorine is used in hundreds of chemical processes and these are so essential that chlorine is rationed. Carbon black is used in making tires. It doubles the length of time a tire will wear. Carbon black is also used for water and sugar purification in the form of activated carbon. It is one of industry's most interesting The new process was developed by Dr. George W.

C. has left many students wondering just who will make up the University student body in April of 1943. According to the interpretations of one school official, the following can expect to be on the Campus in the spring: (1) All medical students will be allowed to continue their educations. (2) All pre-medics who specifically request that they be permitted to continue their educations will be allowed to do so. Those not making such requests, however, will be subject to call. (3) All senior ROTC boys in the ERC will be allowed to continue with their school work. (4) Junior, and probably senior, engineering students will not be called. Only juniors were mentioned specifically in the Washington dispatch, but school officials believe that seniors will come under the same ruling. (5) Men under the age of 18, of course will not be subject to call. (6) Men physically unfit for military service will continue their University work. (7) All men in the V-1, V-5, and V-7 programs will probably still be in school on May 1, unless the Navy department changes its rulings. (8) Men not in the ERC, and who are fortunate enough to have lenient draft boards will be able to continue in school. Freshman and sophomore engineers and pharmacy students, in particular, may receive deferments if they are under education-minded selective service heads. (9) All women students are almost certain to remain at the University, for plans to draft women for industrial work have not as yet received anything like popular support. Beginning in February, this University is likely to be receiving men from both the army and navy for secondary training, if the University is accepted as one of the technical training schools. Men returning here would be those who have received their 13 weeks of basic training. Kansas men probably will be able to specify their desire to return here for that training. While fulfillment of that request is not guaranteed, University officials have received the impression that whenever fulfillment is possible, that policy will be followed. Thus many of the ERC men called away may soon return to Mount Oread to receive training as technical specialists. Reservists Warned Against A Last-Month Letup Now that the war department has announced that the army enlisted reserve will be called at the end of the present semester, many University men in the ERC will be tempted to adopt the attitude, "To hell with school! Army, here I come." Many of the men are anxious to go into training because studying has become increasingly difficult under the war-influenced atmosphere of uncertainty which has prevailed on the campus this fall. Now that the ERC men know they will be leaving soon, they might be inclined to forget about textbooks and grades and to concentrate on a last fling at pleasure. --- Just Wondering Why University concerts are not more carefully timed in rehearsal so that so many of them would not grow firesome because they are too long. If those men slack their studies for the remainder of the semester under the illusion "It's all over now," they will undoubtedly regret it. Their job is only beginning and will require a lot more grit, fortitude, and endurance than they expend in passing college courses. Time is valuable to the U. S. Army, and reserve enlistees have been granted time so they can better train themselves to become officers. The benefits of using this reprieve consciently may seem intangible now, but if a college student enters the army after a month of laziness, he will be a misfit. The army intends to send a large number of the ERC men back to college for further training. Just as the ROTC selected its advanced students partly on the basis of grades in non-military subjects, so will the army probably choose its back-to-school men partly on the basis of former college records. Most reserve men realize that they are actual members of the armed forces. What they should not forget is that they are marked soldiers. Today's college students are tomorrow's lieutenants, captains, and majors—the officers who must lead in battlefield victories in the toughest game devised by man. This is no occasion to let up, fellows. This is the time to pitch in and prepare for hard work. War is still hell—and you are going to get plenty of it.

George Harvey opened the door the other day to find a stranger there with a small black book in his hands. "I hate to barge in at a time like this," the stranger said, "when there's a death in the family; but would you like to buy a subscription to the Ladies' Home Journal." ***** Pranks and Practical Jokers: Melba Nininger, A O Pi, was working as cashier at one of the theatres the other evening when a young man entered the cage with a corncob pipe at full steam. He asked, very respectfully, to be allowed to use the telephone. Melba said yes, and the young man made his call. He then turned to Melba and explained anxiously that he had to run down to the drug store and would she hold his pipe until he got back? "The pipes goes out easily," he said, "so please don't lay it down." And he left. And Melbt held the pipe for 25 minutes, tearing off tickets with one hand and an elbow, while little boys walked by outside snickering. *** Triolet (figure it out for yourself) Pale hothouse flowers, Pallid and lifeless.

Built West of Lawrence Buttressed Barn By CAROLINE SANDERS Tornado Damaged Barn If your gas supply permits you to drive a half mile west of Lawrence on 19th street, take time to look at an old rock barn built into the side of the hill on your right. The building does not stand out distinctly in winter, because its yellow limestone walls blend with the soil and dead grass of surrounding fields. But it is the walls which make the barn unique and arouse the curiosity of the passerby. Three buttresses stand out prominently and cast their jagged $ ^{ \textcircled{2}} $ ently and cast their jagged shadows across the barnyard. The barn did not always look the way it does now. There were no buttresses when it was built in 1875 by William Brown, who had come to this country from Cavan County, Ireland. According to his son, Elmer E. Brown, "the structure was poorly engineered, and it was not until after a tornado in June, 1879, that the buttresses were added." The building is one hundred feet long and shoulders into the side of the hill, so that the second story opens on a level above. The hill afforded protection to the stock, but the freezing and thawing in winter weakened the walls which were disproportionately long, and the tornado inflicted further damage. Later that year William Brown and his sons set themselves to the task of rebuilding and reenforcing the old walls, and constructing a vaulted cyclone cellar in one end of the barn. Rock needed for the work was quarried on the place. Five buttresses were built inside to strengthen the wall next to the hill, and five on the outside of the south wall. Two of these have since fallen. The cyclone cellar now serves in winter as a smug nursery for the young calves. FRII Mr. Brown Collects Vehicles First Eighth Howa Charl Elmer Brown was an infant at the time of Quantrill's raid. When his father's house on Louisiana and Twenty-first street was fired, a colored nurse carried him into a cornfield for safety. He points out that the popular idea that the present barn was once used as a hideout for slaves on the underground railroad, has no foundation, since the barn was not built until 1875. dem 9:45 Subje 11.0 Chris choir Second 5:30 sissip mas ment Mr. Brown, almost 80, does all the work on Pleasant View farm by himself, but he took time from his work to show an interested stranger the collection of old surreys, phaetons, sleighs, and other vehicles which make a treasure house of the buttressed barn. 10: ion.

"Bug-Chasers" To Help Win the War That the demands of the war are infiltrating farther into all fields of college and university training, was again indicated by Dr. H. B. Hungerford, chairman of the department of entomology at the University of Kansas, who is being plied with almost frantic requests from United States army officials for entomologists to enter the department of sanitary engineering in the army and the public health service. Two such letters were received recently by Dr. Hungerford from army officials, for entomology majors to enter the sanitary corps of the army. The demand, Dr. Hungerford pointed out, has been greater in the current war than in any other in which the United States has participated because American troops are being sent to foreign lands never before visited by American soldiers and in many of these countries, particularly in the tropics, they face the threat of insect borne diseases never before encountered by our troops.

Back from participation in the North African invasion where he was aboard an American destroyer, Shaffron said today that Casablanca, Morocco, is a beautiful place with more than its share of beautiful girls. The trouble was that most of the girls spoke Spanish which complicated for Shaffron, the process of getting dates with those of his choice. "I studied French in high school here, but, boy, Spanish was what I needed," he explained. VITAMIN V (From November Cosmopolitan Magazine) Bv NORMAN R. JAFFRAY BY NORMAN S.

Williams Meat Co. 20 Kansas Ave., Kansas City Letters to the Editor ★ EDITOR: With Rommel retreating across the burning sands of Africa, with students wondering whether they will be able to continue their educations after the years of work, and with the Kansas basketball team preparing for a trip East, the Kansan devotes its space to stories on this mythical publicity-seeker, Elmer A. Zilch! Are you fellows really gullible enough to think such tripe is read? May we suggest that you continue a policy of printing the news and leave the funny stuff to the comic strips. We have a hunch they would be much better at it, anyway, than those characters who have been dreaming up the Zilch stories. In times like these you can hardly expect us to be interested in type lice and other childish subjects. If such stories indicate the intelligence level of journalism members, then at least spare us the revolting details. Just keep Zilch to yourselves—and laugh and laugh at him. Nobody else will. GEORGE PIERRON KENNETH KRAEMER Editor's note: The KANSAN staff agrees with readers Pierron and Kraemer that in the past the Zilch dinner has received entirely too much newspaper space for promotion of a purely departmental affair. It has been the policy of the KANSAN this year to keep this promotion to a minimum. To date only a preliminary story and one additional feature have appeared in the paper. The KANSAN intends to continue to follow such a policy in the future. Cat in Jar Caused Exit, Cady Recalls To Chemistry Club "A cat in a bell jar once caused a mass exit from Fraser hall," Dr. H. P. Cady, chemistry professor, told 30 members of the Chemistry club yesterday. Dr. Cady was discussing in a humorous vein "The Theory of Wave Functions as Applied to Odors." The occasion was a Christmas party and gift exchange for members. Dr. Cady explained that the present journalism building was the old chemistry building. One laboratory, however, was in Fraser. His class was trying to discover if smell traveled in waves as light and sound do. A cat was placed in a bell jar with an opening on each side. He said referring to the smell that the information thus obtained was more than enough for everyone. Dr. R. Q. Brewster, chairman of the department of chemistry then gave a reading entitled "Casey at the Bat" a humorous story of baseball.

Loyola baseball players decided to observe a minute of silence for one of their former players, now a chief petty officer in the navy, who had just announced his engagement. Make Way for the Navy! Women occupying the four women's residence halls on the University of Washington campus. Seattle, received orders to move out by Dec. 16. Three hundred coeds were moved out of their dormitories as navy and university officials negotiated for the establishment of a pre-flight preparatory training school on the campus. If the naval training school is established, the dormitories will be remodeled to accommodate twice the number of navy men as coeds previously living in them. Some Will Study Chinese. The University of Washington will initiate a new course during its winter quarter. It will be an intensified course in Chinese, and students will receive 10 hours credit. Money and Books in War Effort A war services day on the University of Toronto campus netted more than a thousand dollars for the International Student Service and a truck-load of books for the armed services. Coed volunteers sold ribbons to raise the money. The day was made festive with street dancing, a "typical coed" contest, conga lines, and band music for the purpose of making the event successful.

Gasoline Coupons Canceled In East Washington. — (INS) — Federal price administrator Leon Henderson today cancelled all A, B, and C gasoline ration coupons along the eastern seaboard until further notice, but President Roosevelt gave assurance a short time later that the Henderson order would be effective for only a very few days. Henderson's action—a most hit the American public—was gency demand for large quantities of motor fuel in North Africa, the President explained at his press conference. Henderson ordered all gasoline sales except those to commercial vehicles which hold T coupons suspended at noon eastern wartime. The demand for gasoline for the second front in Africa was a hurry_up order, the President explained. He classified the suspension of pleasure driving as a purely temporary measure. Affected by the order were some 7,200,000 motorists. (continued from page one) STUDENTS PROTEST--decision had been made. Saving that these were serious times, more serious than the students probably realized, the Chancellor stated that the accelerated program was a necessary result. The Chancellor declared that the three-semester a year program was necessary for many students to complete their education before going into armed service. Malott then asked students to return to classes. The students remained seated. A small band played music.

WEATHER sweeping wartime move yet to necessary because of an emer- Develop Magnesium For Air Production The tempehamental lightweight of America's fighting metals, magnesium, is finishing a training course at Kansas University to qualify for war use. Magnesium, one-third lighter than aluminum, has not been much used in American war planes. The Germans appear to have out-stripped us. Temperament in qualities that make magnesium difficult to handle has made industry reluctant to use this metal. It may catch fire in grinding. It corrodes rapidly in salt water. Hammering makes it brittle. It forges well only by subjecting the metal to great pressure, -65,000 pounds a square inch. That needs presses larger than anything which has existed in the United States, at least until recently. However, another of these temperamental qualities is what makes magnesium promising in the Kansas University investigation. Magnesium can take a longer and harder pounding in wear stresses than the stronger and heavier aluminum. This quality in magnesium has been overlooked. The reason was that aluminum is stronger in the breaking or yield test. Aluminum breaks at 38,000 pounds to the square inch, while magnesium yields at only 30,-000 pounds. But when both metals are subjected to stresses under the 30,000 pound mark the story is different. Σ CAPITAL to CAMPUS ACP's Jay Richter Reports from Washington Washington—(ACP)—As colleges and universities lose their young men to the services at an ever-increasing rate, more and more attention is being directed at post-war educational opportunities for those who will be veterans of World War II. After the last war, the government financed the education and vocational training of only those veterans who suffered injury during the war. This time the government's intentions appear to be much broader. When he recently appointed a committee to study the problem, the President said nothing about wound-stripe pre-requisites for the post-war education of veterans-to-be. He also referred to the educational policy of the last post-war period as "provisional, thus indicating he thought it quite inadequate. He said that the plan this time should "enable the young men whose education has been interrupted to resume their schooling and afford equal opportunity for the training and education of other young men of ability..." That approach gives many enlightened educators reason to hope that the war's aftermath will bring a revitalized educational system, with selection of students based on ability rather than economic privilege. At any rate, it gives college students going into the army some hope that there will be a concrete freedom awaiting them at the end of "the road back." Greetings Try Our Christmas FRUIT CAKES for a Real Yuletide Treat. It's Always Already, the "President's Committee on Post-War Education of students," as it is officially called, is wringling about details of the program—which is a good sign. It indicates that there is something in the wind worth arguing about, and that the committee is active. Points at issue appear to be the question of how the plan shall be financed, how long it shall be under the jurisdiction of the army, and then whether its administration should be under the Veterans Administration, the Office of Education, or some new government agency set up for the purpose. Details of how college credits earned in pre-war days shall be applied to a student-veteran's record when he returns to school, have been worked out by the American Council of Education here in Washington. A thin sheet of aluminium, for this purpose, is stronger and better than an equally thin sheet of magnesium. But add thickness to the magnesium, and while the latter sheet is still 20 per cent lighter than aluminum, it equals the strength and wear of aluminium. Magnesium stands up longer than aluminum. This makes magnesium better than aluminum for use in gun mounts, where the recoil shocks must be repeatedly absorbed. The same endurance applies to any parts which must take long repeated stresses. Magnesium under these conditions stands up about 25 per cent better than aluminum. There are other special uses where magnesium would surpass aluminum. One is for cowlings, the coverings of engines. For BAKES DRAKES Salt water corrosion is probably magnesium's worst drawback. This has been met by protective coatings which the Kansas scientists believe will be sufficient to make magnesium safe in this respect for all types of aircraft except seaplanes. The Kansas magnesium investigation was started under the direction of E. E. Brush, head of aeronautical engineering, who this summer went to Bristol, Pa., as chief designer for Fleetwings, Inc. ... — BUY WAR STAMPS ... — ... — BUY WAR STAMPS ... — ... — BUY WAR STAMPS ... — The Hearth Phone 1036 1941 Mass Mr. and Mrs. W.

The OPA chief said that the value of B and C rationing coupons will be reduced at the same time to 3 gallons. The value of the A coupon, held by 5,700,000 motorists, remained at 3 gallons in the 16 eastern states and the District of Columbia and will be cut to 3 gallons for all of West Virginia. Henderson estimated that the cut in B and C ration coupons will save approximately 25000 barrels of gasoline daily in 17 Eastern states and the District of Columbia.

British military sources in London emphasized and insisted The war department announced today that Allied heavy bombers, continuing their raid over Tunisia, scored hits on an enemy warship in Bizerte harbor. Sousse and Mateur also were bombed. British military sources say that the attack was not a major undertaking, should not be regarded as a full dress, first class offensive, and does not mean that any serious attempt to wrest Burma from the enemy has begun Advances In Africa This new development in the global war coincided with steady advances by the British Eighth army in Libya and Tripolitania, with widespread aerial activity by allied forces in Tunisia and savage air on slaughter against the Axis held port in Africa, and the ships with which Adolph Hitler is attempting desperately to reinforce his harried forces in the southern Mediterranean.

"Extinct Toads and Frogs from the Upper Pliocene Deposits of Meade County, Kansas" by Edward H. Taylor, professor of zoology, contains the results of his work on identifying and classifying fossil remains. Two new spadefoot toads and nine new frogs are typed. Skeletons of toads and frogs put together by Dr. Taylor were fossilized in either river sand or silt, and the parts had been disassociated either prior to fossilization or during process of recovery from deposits by washing and sieving.

There is something incongruous in the "peace on earth" Christmas cards when one considers the world situation. However, in the caroling and Christmas Vespers season, part of the bitterness and hate is forgotten. Several houses have planned exchanges within their groups, some will fill baskets for the needy, and others have parties for needy children. Although this Christmas is darkened by the shadow of war, plans are still made for "as good a time as possible." Nearly every house either will have, or has had, a Christmas dinner or party.

Lucky members who will travel leisurely from Dec. 22 to Jan. 2 are Jack Ballard, Charlie Black, John Buescher, Armand Dixon, Ray Evans, Bob Fitzpatrick, Bill Forsyth, accordingly. It may have diagnosed Otto Schnellbacher, John Short, Paul Turner and Don Blair. Bill Brill, starting guard at the beginning of the season who now has a bad knee, is left home to recover. Presumably the squad considered Brill's potential value at zero for the road games and voted accordingly. It may have diagnosed Brill's condition correctly. Brill could not have been ready for St. Bonaventure and Fordham Dec. 26-28. Although he would not be in top condition for games against St. Joseph's Dec. 28 and St. Louis U. Jan. 1, nearly two weeks from now, Brill will have recovered sufficiently by then to have strengthened Kansas for those games. Even on one and one-half legs Brill could have improved the Jayhawkers for those games. His steady play is one element Kansas could use right now. The squad will travel via Chicago and Detroit. At Detroit Bob Fisher, alumnus, has arranged a welcome for the cagers. Alumni will entertain players at their homes Christmas Eve and conduct tours of the Ford plant and munitions centers. After meeting St. Bonaventure at Buffalo. Kansas will dock at New York's Hotel Belvedere, opposite Madison Square Garden. Several alumni, Waldo Bowman, Boots Adams, Lacey Haynes, F. D. Pratt, and others, will form a small cheering section among the 18,000 expected to see Kansas play Fordham. Each player will write a daily log of the trip for posterity. All individual efforts will be mimeographed, bound and presented next Christmas to mothers of squadmen. A prize will be given daily for the best effort to be judged by Chuck Elliott, sports publicity director who will travel with the squad. Coach Phog Allen expects Kansas to be "massacred." He asserts present Kansas cagers are the most difficult to coach since his 1929 quintet, which won three and lost 15 games. HOW MANY REMAIN? Big Ten Commissioner John L Griffith is authority for the statement that between 80 and 90 per cent of the athletes who played football this fall will be in the armed forces by June. If Commissioner Griffith's figures are approximately correct, college football will fold for the duration. In conference meetings early this month, representatives throughout the country voted to continue football if possible. Now, with students in the enlisted reserves leaving for active duty in January and June, football play will be impossible. Soldiers the War department sends back to colleges are not expected to represent universities in intercollegiate athletics. Cunningham Hits 18 As Theta Tau Wins MONDAY 9:15—east court: Alpha Tau Omega vs. Kappa Sigma west court: Beta Theta Pi vs. Templin hall TUESDAY 10:15—east court: Phi Gamma Delta vs. Sigma Nu west court: Sigma Alpha Epsilon vs. Delta Chi 10:00—east court: Battenfeld hall vs. Phi Kappa Psi west court: Phi Delta Theta vs. Delta Tau Delta Theta Tau whipped Hopkins hall 28 to 27 in an overtime battle to brighten a slow evening of intramurals last night. Harold Cunningham scored a field goal in the overtime period to win the game for the engineers. This field goal gave him 18 points for the evening and dashed the hopes of Hopkins who seemingly had won-the game when Bob Barnes made a free shot mid-way through the overtime period. Cunningham was the show of the evening. He led the scoring and his work under the basket gave the engineers the edge in rebounds. Bob Barnes was high point man for Hopkins with nine points. The Phi Delt's burst Delta Chi's championship bubble with a 21-13 victory. Clay Hedrick, Kirk Scott and Walt Quiring again led their teammates in the scoring column. Hedrick and Scott collected seven points and Quiring tallied five points. Kappa Sigma rolled over Phi Kappa Psi 29-19. Bob Beal led the Kappa Sig's with 13 points to their easy victory. Quarterbacking the Kappa Sig's and leading his teammates in offensive and defensive work Beal was the outstanding player on the floor. Bill Chestnut, Clayton Kyle, and Bill Ellis with five, five, and seven points respectively were high point men for the Phi Fsi's. Templin continued its winning ways with a 42-15 victory over a hapless A K Psi quintet. Bob Corder was the big gun in the Templin attack with 17 points. Mac Frederick followed him with 10 points. Del Green and Millard Aldridge with four points apiece were the high scorers for A K Psi.

The excitement was over, and they were beginning to think of the bad publicity the University would receive from their rowdyism, and in some quarters they were speculating upon the possibility that their "mass meeting" may have cost them the very thing they were seeking—a longer Christmas vacation. It now seems that perhaps a more rational presentation of the students' stand would have brought an extension of the Christmas vacation. Statements from Senate members supporting the longer-vacation movement ran generally something like this following their meeting: "Those kids ruined everything with their rough stuff." As an alternative, students might have secured the desired results had student leaders drawn up an explanatory petition signed by the hundreds of students desiring a longer holiday. The petition then could have been sent to the Senate for consideration on its merits. Several faculty members today stated their belief that such a move would have had a far greater chance of success than the tactics employed. An Unnecessary Step As it is, the entire University will receive bad publicity because of actions initiated by a few "radicals," probably motivated more than a little bit by a hope for publicity. Catcalls at the Chancellor and Dean Lawson while speaking, the breaking up of classes, and the tremendous din in a hall in which Naval trainee classes were being conducted can hardly give the tax-payers of the state a good impression of University students. Nor should it be forgotten that the Chancellor in his move to shorten the vacation was actuated by sincere motives which he thought would result in the greatest good for the student body. Horse laughs for the administrator were, without a doubt, coming principally from students who do not know the Chancellor personally. The Kansan has from the outset questioned the wisdom of shortening Christmas vacation, and continues to do so, believing the move was made at a time when there was a tremendous stress on "war sacrifice." It now seems that the University has taken an unnecessary step in its effort to fall in line with that spirit. Administrative Policy The Kansan regrets that the Senate apparently found it necessary to make its decision on a basis of administrative policy, rather than upon the merits of the proposal. Perhaps the fundamental cause of the trouble was the lack of leadership. The MSC, despite an admirable attempt this year to regain its prestige, has in recent years forfeited its right to student confidence through petty bickerings over dance passes and other small internal questions, while ignoring vital student needs. The group can hardly expect to establish itself as true student representatives under the present setup. Members and officers are selected is purely party maneuvering. Cost of elections Just Wondering With everybody in uniform, what will clothing stores that cater to men students do for business next year? --and the lack of student interest in University politics were given as the reasons for the cancellation of student elections. This fall, however, has seen a sudden upswing in interest in student affairs-an upswing which would justify the cost of an election. A Cloak of Secrecy Still another obstacle to student-administration understanding is the cloak of secrecy under which the University Senate operates. Many students were actually ignorant of the existence of the powerful body. Those few who are informed know that the organization meets always in closed sessions. Even the student press is prohibited from covering sessions which deal with topics of great interest to the students. The body agreed to consider the Christmas vacation issue—but what kind of consideration did the proposal receive? Was it actually considered on its merits, or the final decision purely a punitive one against a small group of irresponsible "leaders" for which the entire student body must suffer? Was it merely based upon a "face-saving" desire by some members who hated to reverse a former decision? Or was it a decision made in the best interest of the students and the University? Only those who were present know—and there were no students present. UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Student Paper of THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Lawrence, Kansas MEMBER KANSAS PRESS ASSOCIATION Publisher ...

HISTORY REPEATED Walkout After Game ★★ ★ ★ ★ One Year Ago History repeated itself yesterday when students were, not given a holiday by the Chancellor after staging a mob scene of Cecil B. DeMille proportions. A little over a year ago, on November 17, 1941, to be exact, the student body attended a Monday convocation celebrating the victory over Kansas State in a game played in the K.U. stadium the preceding Saturday. Before the convocation the Men's Student Council and the Women's Self-Governing Association had jointly voted to read a resolution recommending dismissal of classes for the day. Chancellor Malott who believed that an agreement had been made between himself and the president of the MSC for resumption of classes after the Convocation, called the resolution "lawless." Backstage at the Convocation the two councils voted to withdraw the resolution. Students Return to Class At the end of the convocation the students held a 30-minute sitdown strike, followed by a victory parade from Hoch auditorium downtown A half-mile long line wound its way down Thirteenth street to Massachusetts where a coffin box with "Malott" painted on it was added to the parade downtown. A mock funeral ceremony for the Chancellor was held in Central Park. In the afternoon the Chancellor was burned in effigy in front of Frank Strong hall and a street dance took place, soon moving to the Memorial Union ballroom. More than 1500 students joined the Chancellor in watching the football practice in the stadium at 4:30 that afternoon. The next morning everyone returned peacefully to classes. John Arthur Randall, for 14 years president of the Wisconsin Athenaeum and Mechanics institute, has been appointed dean of research and management at Park college, Parksville, Mo. Council Amends Milk Ordinance The Lawrence city council voted Friday night to amend the standard milk ordinance to permit distributors to process more than one grade of milk in the same equipment. The council has been taking action in this field in an attempt to solve the city's milk shortage. The city council passed a resolution on Dec. 11 permitting dairymen to sell grade C milk, but milk could not be pasteurized in the same equipment as the grade A milk. tion on Dec. 11 permitting dairymen to sell grade C milk, but milk could not be pasteurized in the same equipment as the grade A milk. Requesting permission from the $ O_{2} $ PA to raise the ceiling price of milk for the city has also been considered. The present milk crisis began Dec. 9 when the county health unit revoked the Fritzel Dairy license to sell milk. Art Fritzel admitted using other than grade A milk in violation to the city ruling. Fritzel appealed before the council with an appeal for revocation on his license by the health director. The appeal was granted giving Fritzel the right to sell milk in Lawrence.

CAPTURE MEMORISED VACCINES UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE SEVEN SUNDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1942 Senior Girls Too May Enter KU Senior girls as well as boys will be advanced from the high schools of Kansas to college training at the beginning of the second semester, if the recommendation of a committee of the State Board of Education is accepted by the board. The plan is a part of an eight-point suggestion which, at the outset, provided that high school senior boys be admitted to college at the mid-year to speed up their education preparatory to military service. Higher ranking seniors would be recommended by high school principals on the basis of character, record of achievement, and promise of success. If accepted by colleges, they could take a course that would serve as both credit on the high school diploma and as the freshman year of college. President F. D. Farrell of Kansas state College said the state schools already had approved the plan. He estimated not more than one per cent of the high school seniors in the state would participate the first year. Not an Experiment The conference said it recommended the acceleration policy "as an emergency preparation for war service and not as a basis of general educational experimentation." Recommendations will be given to the State Board of Education, which said further discussion on the subject would be conducted for smaller high schools, junior colleges and other private colleges not represented yesterday. The conference was called by Geo L. McClenny, state superintendant of public instruction, at the request of the federal government which is anxious that the schools co-operate to meet the need of the national emergency for more technically trained young men. The eight-point recommendation is as follows: (1) We recommend in general acceptance of the policy of acceleration as proposed by the Policy Commission. (a) We believe that this is necessary in order to insure the selection of properly qualified pupils for college preparation. (b) We approve it as an emergency preparation for war service and not as a basis of general educational experimentation. (2) We recommend that the prerequisites for admission to college be based upon the recommendation of the high school principals as determined by the student's character, record of achievement and promise of success. (3) We recommend that only students of senior rank be accepted for this program. (4) We recommend that sufficient time should be allowed for the development of courses and administrative procedures and therefore suggest that this program be put in operation at the close of this school year in May or June. (5) In consideration of their youth and immaturity, we recommend to college authorities that special care be given in helping the students make their social adjustment. (6) We recommend that a liberal scholarship aid policy be instituted by the coleges to take care of those who are qualified to participate in this program but lack financial means. (7) We recommend that the State Board of Education, secure the views 'We Can't Get Along Without Newspapers' Mayor Laguardia New York, (INS)—M mayor F. H. LaGuardia whose fights with newspapermen are legend around New York's city hall, is convinced today that "we can't get along without newspapers." The mayor made that comment to news photographers following ending of a strike of newspaper delivery which kept eight city papers off the street. Later, however, he added to reporters: "I'm glad it's over. Now we can read the funnies." Philadelphia, (INS) — Phil Kaye, master of ceremonies of an entertainers group touring the USO circuits, has been arrested on a complaint charging him with being a violator of the selective service act, the FBI announced today. Draft Dodger Is No Kin--Says Kaye In revealing Kaye's arrest, authorities said he told them he was a brother of Sammy Kaye, the noted orchestra leader. This, however, was denied by Kaye's associates, who stated emphatically that "Sammy has no brother." of all types of high schools and colleges before taking action. (8) The committee realizes that the program of acceleration, recommended above, ministers to a relatively small group of high school students. Many high schools in the state of Kansas have already revised their courses of study and included preinduction courses and a physical fitness course at the recommendation of the Army and Navy. We command the high schools who have thus strengthened their courses and recommend that other high schools follow their leadership. This reorganization will meet the needs of the large mass of high school pupils who are not able to attend college. Eight In Speech Final Tomorrow "Universities and the War Effort" will be the subject for the finals in the special all-University speaking contest at 8:30 tomorrow evening in Frasher hall. The contest is sponsored jointly by the department of speech and drama and the Forums Board. Seventeen students tried out with four minute speeches in Fraser hall Thursday evening. From this group the following eight were selected for the finals: Eugene Shearp, College freshman; Jean Fisher, College sophomore; Bob Hutchinson, College sophomore; Willis Tompkins, Business senior; Catherine Fruin, Education junior; Bill Conboy, College freshman; Edith Fleming, College junior; and Robert Akey, College junior. Judges for the final contest will be Gerald Pearson of the Extension Division, Prof. Walter Sandelius of the department of political science, and Prof. John Hankins of the department of English. Twenty dollars in cash prizes will be awarded to the three highest ranking speakers—$10 first, $7 second, and $3 third. The prizes are awarded by the Forums Board. Merrill Peterson, College senior is chairman for the contest. The contest is open to the public.

Purdue University males were out searching for either the lightest or the heaviest coed, depending upon the prize they planned to carry off, last week when the admission price to the winter dance was announced. A pair of scales at the door weighed each coed, and her date paid one cent a pound to the nearest nickel plus ten cents tax. This plan was adopted because the band playing for the dance was Tiny Hill's, the man who tagged himself "America's Biggest Band Leader" and who was rejected from the army because of 338 extra pounds. The "heavies" had a chance, however, because any couple with a combined weight greater than Tiny's was admitted free. Prizes were awarded to the lightest and heaviest coeds weighed in.

Dog Slows Game At the University of California's opening basketball game, varsity Famous Architect Faces Investigation Madison, Wis., (INS)—Facing possible inquiry by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Frank Lloyd Wright famous architect, today denied he ever had advised students at his architectural colony at Spring Green Wis., to avoid Military service. Federal Judge Patrick T. Stone announced in court yesterday he would ask the FBI to investigate Wright and expressed belief that he noted architect may be "obstructing the war." Judge Stone's statement was made while he postponed sentence on Marcus Earl Weston, 27, one of Wright's apprentices who pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with refusal to report for induction into the army. In giving Weston until Jan. 12 to "think it over," Judge Stone said: "I think you boys are living under a bad influence with Wright. I'm afraid he is poisoning your minds. If he is obstructing the war, he should be indicted. I am going to ask the FBI to investigate." Weston, a consciencious objector, denied that Wright had advised his students to evade the draft. Informed of Judge Stone's statement at his Spring Green estate, Wright declared: "As far as I am concerned Judge Stone is entitled to his opinion and is welcome to make any investigation which he, as a patriot, feels is necessary."

However, at the conclusion of the committee meeting, Don Moser, MSC, called the Chancellor to notify him of the proposed committee action. The chancellor said that the issue will not be opened again. Since the University Senate could not meet without the call of the Chancellor, the committee decided to drop its action. The committee was composed of Don Moser; Marge Rader, Vernon McKale, Bob White, John Conard, Joy Howland, Don Kewn, and Carl Unruh. The Chancellor received a request yesterday from a member of the Board of Regents. Mr. Willis N. Kelly, mayor of Hutchinson, to give the students a week vacation. Mr. Kelly said he wrote as a citizen and not as a member of the Board of Regents. Mr. Kelly has a son at the University, Charles, a freshman engineer. CHRISTMAS VESPERS--- No Mass Meeting Today University Senate members to sound out sentiment regarding the demonstration.

Dates selected were from this afternoon at 5:30 to 8:30 a.m., Wednesday December 30. The action was prompted when Chancellor Malott called a meeting of the body at the request of a student committee. The committee, composed of MSC and WSGA members and other student leaders, presented to the Chancellor the oral request of the student body that the Senate reconsider Friday's decision. The Senate's vote of reconsideration followed approximately 45 minutes of debate, after E. B. Stouffer, dean of the Graduate School, made the original proposal, which had been worked out in a special committee meeting. The student committee which met with the Chancellor prior to the calling of the Senate meeting will continue its investigation of the Friday mass meeting, and will attempt to bring punitive measures against the leaders and instigators of the demonstration. Bob White, MSC member, is chairman of the committee. Riot Produces New MSC Bills Bills outlawing mass student demonstrations and providing for a hearing of student grievances by the administration were introduced in a special meeting of the MSC at 8 o'clock last night. Stating that any student who is an instigator or leader of any violent demonstration against any member or members of the administration, will be prosecuted by a special committee of the MSC in the Student Supreme Court, Bill Number One was proposed as $ _{a} $ means of preventing a recurrence such as the riot of Friday afternoon. Bill Number Two has to do with student grievances, stating that any student with grievances against administration may come to MSC committee on student affairs, and the committee will refer the grievance to the administration. The bill will probably be revised to fit the program of the MSC in its recent negotiations with the Chancellor. A book that "may prove as outstanding in the history of social thought as classics like Adam Smith's 'Wealth of Nations'," in the opinion of one critic, has just been printed and published by the University of Kansas Press. The volume contains the results of five years of investigation by Prof. Seba Eldridge, acting chairman of the department of sociology, and 29 collaborators; it is entitled, "Development of Collective Enterprise"—its topic being defined simply as group ownership of capital employed in an undertaking, in contrast to the individual ownership of the ordinary proprietary concern. The comparison of the new book with classics like "Wealth of Nations" was made by Dr. George R. Davies, sociologist and professor of statistics in the College of Commerce at the University of Iowa. Dr. Davies has published many articles and several books in the fields of economics and sociology and has taught for more than 40 years. Dr. Davies read "Development of Collective Enterprise" in manuscript form before publication. A Timely Theme "The theme is very timely," Dr. Davies declared, "considering the world conflict of collectivistic and individualistic ideas. Particularly as far as the United States is concerned, it should dispel the prestige of European collectivistic ideologies and center attention upon the actual process of socialization already under way. Unless very untimely social disturbances occur, in all probability it will be accepted as one of the outstanding social orks of this period of history." Dr. Selig Perlman, labor economist at the University of Wisconsin, commented, "A truly impressive job. In the light of this detailed and discriminating research, the thesis (continued to page two) Traveler's Poll Shows Almost No Congestion "We are confident that adequate transportation facilities will be available for every student who wishes to go home Christmas, and if any one has to stand up on the train or bus, we are certain that it will be for no great distance." Merry Christmas That was the response of transportation officials when given the results of the Kansan travelers' poll yesterday. The only possible congestion which was indicated on the poll is Wednesday afternoon west-bound railroads. (This probably means Tuesday afternoon's trains in view of the recent calendar change and extension of vacation.) A total of 400 students responded to the poll—enough to get a fairly accurate proportional distribution of holiday travel. Outside of the Wednesday afternoon west-bound travel, departure schedules are well scattered and should cause no congestion. Buses will receive a relatively small percentage of the travel and should not be overly crowded (by students, at least) at any time. In reconvening the University Senate yesterday afternoon, to give reconsideration to the length of the vacation, I acted in response to a belief on my part and that of the other administrators of the University, that student leaders on the campus have so thoroughly discredited the student actions culminating last Friday, as to warrant giving every possible opportunity for sound student leadership to be heard and its interests to be made known. DEANE W. MALOTT, Chancellor. It was, I believe, with this same feeling that the Senate decided to extend the vacation to one week. The University, its faculty and administration, extends to all students best wishes for a Merry Christmas, and for a pleasant respite from the strenuous work of this war year. To Supervise Women Prof. Henry Stillwell will supervise the training of the women who enroll in the aircraft production training program next semester. Air Corps Not Included In AERC Call Registrar Laurence C. Woodruff received notice today from the War Manpower Committee that not until Jan. 1 will the War department have completed plans for calling Army Enlisted Reserve Corps students to active duty. The notice further stated that: 1. No orders will be given to report for active duty prior to a date two weeks after the completion of the present semester. 2. The Army Specialized Training program does not include the Air Corps reserve.

The notice also stated that all students who are not in the army or navy reserves will be deferred until the end of the spring semester providing they are: 1. Medical students or pre-medical students who have had one year of training in an approved institution. 2. Engineering students who have had one year of study in an approved engineering institution. 3. All students specializing in chemistry, physics, or bacteriology who are within two years of completing their training. 4.

KU Trainees To Be Paid During Study Plans for a training course in aeronautical engineering for women, in which the women will be on the payroll of major aircraft companies during the time they are being trained, have been completed between the University School of Engineering and four major aircraft companies, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today. The plan is expected to become effective the second semester which begins Jan. 17. The aircraft companies with whom the University has made the arrangements, detailed plans of which are being worked out by University authorities and company officials, are Boeing, North American, Cessna, Beechcraft. The course, which will be limited to 200 women trainees, will be administered by the School of Engineering and Architecture, of which J. Jakosky is dean. Financing of the project will be through the Engineering Science Management War Training program, of which Guy V. Keeler, of the University Extension division, is regional director. The ESMWT program is under the supervision of the U. S. Office of Education. Already more than 25,000 war production workers in Kansas and Missouri have been trained by the University under the program. Seven Options Offered New Year's Party Sales Top 300 Mark Trainees in the aeronautical program for women at the University of Kansas will be given special training in one of the following aeronautical options: stress analysis, drafting, weight control, production illustration, production planning and (continued to page two) More than 300 tickets have been sold to the New Year's Eve party by noon today, Carl Hines, chairman of the ticket committee, said today. The number of tables reserved is approximately 165. Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, announced today that in all probability, 1:30 closing hours will be extended only to those women attending the New Year's Eve party. Closing hours for all other activities will be 12:30. Tickets may be obtained at the Business Office after vacation, Hines said. UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE TWO TUESDAY, DECEMBER 22, 1942 Perkins Reports U.S. Living Cost Still Mounting Washington, Dec. 22- (INS) -Secretary of Labor Perkins today reported a further increase in America's rising food bill as the OPA took another step to control increasing meat prices by setting specific dollars and cents ceilings on lamb and mutton. Miss Perkins said that food prices jumped 1.2 per cent between Oct. 15 and Nov. 15 and at the same time disclosed that the general cost of living advanced 8.4 per cent since last May and approximately 20 per cent in most cities since December a year ago. An increase of 21 per cent was reported over August, 1939. According to the labor department's price index, total living costs for city families increased seventh of one per cent during the Oct. 15—Nov. 15 period while foods controlled by the OPA moved ahead .5 per cent and uncontrolled foods advanced 6.6 per cent. The secretary attributed the major part of the living cost increase in the November-October period to rising food prices, greater charges for personal and professional services and the new excise taxes on cigarettes, telephone calls and railroad fees. The largest increase in living costs since last December-21.8 per cent—was reported by Seattle. The lowest percentage of increase -15.9—was reported for Houston, Tex. In her report, Miss Perkins said that all but about 12 per cent of the normal family budget is now under federal government control. BUY WAR STAMPS . . .
