The bulletin added that Army Air Corps Reservists, whose names are removed from the eligible list for aviation cadet training, will be called to active duty and assigned to the nearest air force replacement training center (technical). Such applicants will lose their rights to receive pilot training but will receive training in the technical branches of the air force.

By International News Service
McNutt's statement came in testimony in which he revealed he will carry to President Roosevelt tomorrow a difference of opinion that exists between himself and Secretary of War Stimson on the question of drafting youths of college age for military service.
Called Before Committee
By International News Service WASHINGTON—War manpower chief Paul V. McNutt today declared that by the end of 1943 10 out of every 14 able bodied men between the ages of 18 and 38 will be in the fighting forces of the United States.
"And I mean they will be fighting men," McNutt emphasized in testimony before the military affairs committee.
McNutt was called before the committee to outline plans for the education of men of college age, utilizing immediately from 400 to 500 of the 1700 colleges of the country.
McNutt said that non-federal supported colleges will be used in the educational training program, with special emphasis placed on the utilization of smaller colleges.
"I feel that we should utilize the training facilities that are here now, rather than to build new cantonments," McNutt said. Advises Men
Questioned as to what a young man of college and draft age should do if he is in schol now, McNutt said:

Preliminary Summerfield Scholarship examinations will be given Saturday, March 13, Mrs. Flora Boynton, office secretary for the Endowment Association, said today. The final examination, given to those who are thinned out after the preliminaries, will be given on April 12 and 13, she said.

SPRING GRID PRACTICE SET
Gwinn Henry reports that spring football practice will begin early in March. Now that Vic Hurt has left Henry is worried about handling the squad by himself. He is scouting for assistants to condition this fall's Jay-hawk eleven. The Old Man expects to place some sort of team on the field if football is played this year. But there's a chance that low finances may halt Kansas football, even if government restriction doesn't.
DRAKE CAGER POPS REFEREE PARKE CARROLL
Fists flew, spectators swarmed at Des Moines Saturday while Iowa State edged Drake 32-30. Ray Wehde, who will play against Kansas here Saturday, got poked by a Drake.
Colorful Parke Carroll, who usually manages to arouse home team crowds, threw an irritated Bulldog out for swinging at him (Carroll) after a decision unsuiting the cager. Then Drake spectators swarmed on the court for four minutes protesting. Carroll finally cleared the floor, with the game ending 30 seconds later.
SATURDAY NIGHT OBSERVATIONS
Sailor Bob Davies got most of the attention of the Kansas-Great Lakes crowd by using vaudeville tactics. But if Great Lakes hadn't had two performers, George Glamack and Forrest Anderson, five Davies on the floor wouldn't have helped the sailors much against the Jayhawks.
Kansas was behind 39-32 nearing the 10-minute mark of the second half when Anderson dropped in two running one-handers and a free throw to break the Jayhawks. Glamack, six-foot former North Carolina center, guarded Charlie Black well and scored timely nipot shots to stop threatening Kansas rallies.
Neither five connected as expected. Great Lakes couldn't work the ball in for easy shots as it did against Missouri the night before, while Kansas drive-in plays were halted by Glamack and George Hamburg. Ray Evans and Black grabbed most of the rebounds during the first half, forcing the sailors to shoot and hurry back on defense against KU's fast break.
Great Lakes unit substitution method won the game for the sailors. With 10 minutes to play in the second half the Jayhawkers were exhausted when Great Lakes increased the torrid pace.
Armand Dixon, knocked cold late in the game, still doesn't know what happened. Some Kansas players assert that Eddie Riska, scrappy forward, shoved Dixon to the floor in a mixup. The sailors played rough ball, making 19 fouls. It didn't matter much, as Kansas missed 11 free throws while making only nine. Great Lakes swished 11 free tosses, missed five.
Senator Worries Over NU-Creighton Athletic Relations
Lincoln, Feb. 1 (INS) — Football competition at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln and Creighton University in Omaha would be compulsory under provisions of a bill introduced into the Nebraska unicameral legislature today by Sen. Sam Klaver of Omaha.
The bill provides that, not only in football but in other athletic competition and in debate, the Cornhuskers would have to schedule contests with the Bluejays whenever Creighton requested it.

Oklahoma continued to press Phog Allen's Kansas Jayhawks for the Big Six conference leadership by downing Iowa State on the Cyclone court Monday 46-37. It was the third Sooner conference victory of the year.
Ray Wehde, Iowa State sophomore,
led the Cyclone attack with 15 points
to tie Tucker for scoring honors.
Gerald Tucker, Sooner ace, continued his high-scoring ways by tacking up 15 points, most of them coming in the second half when Bruce Drake's charges rallied to come from behind. He was assisted in the scoring chores by Forward A.D. Roberts and Guard Allie Pahe.
In a non-conference game last night the Kansas State Wildcats avenged an earlier defeat by downing Washburn 53 to 24 in their most impressive demonstration of court power this year. Marlo Dirks, sharpshooting center, and George Mendenhall starred for the victors.

Students Speak On War Topics
An organized speakers' bureau will be established to schedule speakers for schools, clubs, and campus organizations on subjects related to the war effort, Prof. E. C. Buehler of the speech department, said yesterday. The speeches will be informative, rather than debates or discussions.
Subjects will include the new geography, post-war organization, how will America pay for this war, manpower, food for this world war, Russia—the miracle of World War II, know your enemy—the Japanese, England and the Beveridge plan, and why does Argentina hold out?
A tea will be given at 4:30 Thursday afternoon in the Union building for all interested students, preferably upperclassmen, said Professor Buchler. The speakers often will go out of town and make one- or two-day tours.
The idea behind the bureau is to carry to the public informative matters which will give it tools with which to think on the problems of today and tomorrow. There is too much ignorance and inaccurate information, said Professor Buelhler. The public will not be able to make the most of the new world to come out of the war if it hasn't the right information with which to think, he added.

Armed Forces' Drain on Doctors Threatens Welfare of Small Towns
In a report from the telegraph operator in Telegraph Creek, a tiny northern British Columbia settlement, eight persons were said to be sericken fatally by an influenza type of disease, and the rest of the population of 152 persons were "suffering and dying without medical aid."
This is not merely a regrettable incident. This is no isolated scene of tragedy laid in northern Canadian woods. This is an example of what is happening in communities all over the United States and Canada. Yes, even in Kansas. As all available doctors and nurses are called for service with the armed forces, communities sometimes entire towns are left without medical aid.
In some areas, more fortunate than others, a single doctor, too old for active service, attends to all cases. Now through necessity a surgeon, obstetrician, and physician all in one, the ordinary small-town doctor has often had insufficient training to undertake these important duties. Expectant mothers have only practical nurses to look to when labor overtakes them. Those suffering in communities without medical aid can only hope.
Large cities are feeling the pinch of medical insufficiency. One doctor to 12,000 persons is the best average in the present wartime. Medical attention will be reserved for serious cases, eliminating attendance on hypochondriacs.
It is in the small towns, however, that the situation is growing critical. The best of medical attention should, of course, be given the fighting men. Yet civilians are doing their parts, too. They are holding down the home front, and because of their self-sacrifice and effort, deserve some regard, too. The continual drain of doctors and nurses must be checked.

Pay-As-You-Go Tax Needed to Cut Purchasing Power of War Worker
A pay-as-you-earn plan for Americans to pay income taxes is expected to appear before Congress this week.
This plan, proposed by Beardsley Ruml, New York banker, is designed to make the income tax burdens of the 40 million U.S. taxpayers more evenly distributed over a given period of time. The tax would be paid monthly,12 times throughout the year, instead of one lump sum being paid over the entire preceding year's income.
This sort of plan would be a boon especially to the lower salaried workers who, for the first time this year, will be paying income taxes on war-inflated pay checks. Many of these workers have greater purchasing power than they have even known before. Their living costs, however, are higher also, and, instead of saving a portion of what is left from living expenses for taxes, they use this increased purchasing power to buy personal articles they have never before been able to afford.
The pay-as-you-go plan will keep down the purchasing power of these workers. Not only will it act as a preventive to inflation, but it will also give the purchasing public as a whole

Whistle Causes Inconvenience By Blowing Several Minutes Late
University students and faculty members have experienced difficulty recently in adjusting their daily schedules to a power plant whistle which insists on blowing several minutes late once every hour.
The lack of coordination between University time and actual time may seem inconsequential, but even a few minutes deviation can be the cause of many incidents of individual irritation.
The University timepiece has a large audience. Why can't it be on time?

Having been many places and seen many people, Mary has cultivated a desire to travel beyond American borders and see life in other countries. She spent a summer in Mexico City and says, "Mexico holds great wonders with its strange language and beautiful scenery." She liked especially the beauty of the floating gardens located outside of Mexico City.
A senior in the School of Business, Mary is eagerly seeking the opportunity for a job somewhere in the West, preferably in personnel work. Mary is engaged to Bert Dickerson, but says she, "he is awaiting call into the service, so our plans are uncertain for the duration."
Mary is fond of classical music, and she plays it as well. Until her junior year Mary majored in piano. The word versatile might well fit her, for she jokingly speaks of herself as being "about as accomplished on the violin as Jack Benny's understudy." Her favorite dance band is Harry James.

Every summer for the past ten years, excluding last summer, Mary has spent the summer months either on the west coast or riding horseback and hiking in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. What little time remains after school work and activities, Mary uses for equitation and drinking cokes.
This likable girl indicated her desire to live in a city about the size of her home town, Wichita. "New York and Chicago are too overgrown but Seattle would be just right."
"Although I don't really intend to fly I do possess a secret desire to do so." Mary thinks that post-war aviation will affect every car owner and become the biggest transportation development.

Turk Leaders Discuss War With Churchill
By International News Service
By International News Service Germany had another dramatic conference to worry about today after the Ministry of Information in London announced that Prime Minister Winston Churchill and military and political aides had conferred with President Isnet Inouu of Turkey.
Turkish Prime Minister Sukru Saracoglu and other high political leaders took part in the discussions which were held at Adana near the Syrian border last Saturday and Sunday.
"We had an important and agreeable discussion."
Back in Cairo en route to London Churchill said:
While it was emphasized that the decision reached did not change Turkish neutral standing, it was intimated that Turkey would build defenses against possible Axis attack.
Meanwhile the fighting continued to go against the Axis. The Russians forged ahead, driving to within 30 miles of Rostov and scoring gains in the offensive against Kharkov and Kursk.
German forces trapped in the Maikop area were reported near panic and abandoning great quantities of equipment to speed up their retreat.
There were no reports from Tunisia where the last official communique said Allied forces and the Axis were engaged in several areas.
Allied air and land forces smashed at the Japanese in New Guinea and New British islands, and the Navy Department remained silent on the Japanese claim that it had sunk two Allied battle ships and two cruisers, and damaged a battle ship and cruiser in a battle off Rennell Island, 100 miles south of Guadalcanal.

Registration for the English proficiency examination to be given at 8:30 Saturday morning will be completed at closing time of the College office tomorrow, according to John B. Virtue, professor of English. Only students of junior or senior standing may apply, and they must appear in person.
Each properly registered student is asked to bring pen and ink, his duplicate card of registration, and his activity book to the place of examination assigned him at registration. Professor Virtue said. Paper will be furnished.
There will be one more proficiency examination this semester, probably in April.
DRAFT BOSSES--der-Secretary of War Patterson as a key point to defend his charges of army and navy interference with the synthetic rubber program. In the letter, Jeffers added, Patterson declared that all crude rubber for other than military purposes should be cut off and that trucks not engaged in the war effort should be requisitioned.

"My advice to that young man is to stay where he is until he is called."
McNutt said that the complete program for selection of the young men and women for the educational training program would be completed in about two weeks. Selection of the colleges is up to the 9-man committee named by McNutt, and headed by Dr. E. C. Elliott, president of Purdue University.
The army and navy will select the men who will be sent to the school, he added. "My interest is not in protecting the existence of small colleges as such," McNutt said. "They will have to justify their own existence."
Besses Do Not Agree
McNutt's revelation of an impasse between himself and Stimson came when he was questioned on the policy of the armed services of placing men in service or in schools. He said James F. Byrnes, economic stabilization director, has no authority over his operations.
"I'm having lunch with the President tomorrow and will discuss this among other things," McNutt said. Told that there are thousands of young men in colleges now subject to the draft who are wondering whether to drop their education, McNutt said:
"Id tell those boys to stay in school until they are called."

Jeffers made his charges before a joint hearing being conducted by the house military and naval affairs committees. Patterson himself was in the audience and so were high ranking navy officials, including Under-Secretary of the Navy James Forrestal.
Patterson also requested, according to Jeffers, that trucks carrying beer and other beverages and luxury articles which still are allowed to operate should be requisitioned for use by the armed forces.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 (NS) — Rubber Director William M.

Jeffers was summoned to explain charges he made at Baltimore that the army and navy were interfering with the synthetic rubber program.
Jeffers, in these remarks, had called for the elimination of army and navy experts and "loafers" from synthetic rubber plants.
He reiterated his charges today but he refused to class the army and navy men as loafers. Members of the committees sought through persistent questioning to force Jeffers to name the army and navy officers who were interfering with the synthetic rubber program. Jeffers steadfastly refused.
The rubber director also attacked handling of the rubber program by the War Production Board although he said that he had "no quarrel with Don Nelson." The latter is chairman of the WPB. However, Jeffers did insist that Nelson should make a decision and stick to it and not change it from day to day.
Jeffers Says Military Heads Cramp Efforts
Jeffers used the letter from Under-Secretary of War Patterson as a key point to defend his charges of army and navy interference with the synthetic rubber program. In the letter, Jeffers added, Patterson declared that all crude rubber for other than military purposes should be cut off and that trucks not engaged in the war effort should be requisitioned.

Deferment Not To Be Granted For Dependency
Washington, (INS) — The War Manpower Commission today moved toward complete abolition of dependency as grounds for deferment from military service.
The death knell of the familiar 3A classification was sounded as the WMC instructed local draft boards to consider some 70 activities and occupations as "non-defeable" after April 1, regardless of dependents.
Unless the holders of such jobs -bantenders, bootblacks, bus boys, chauffeurs, bootblacks, bus boys, employees-get into essential war work within 60 days, they face reclassification into IA and become利 for draft.
Manpower Chief Paul B. McNutt made it abundantly clear that "this is only the beginning."
"Does this mean that henceforth dependency will not be enough for deferment?" he was asked.
"It is a rather clear indication to all who can read," he said.

Reviews Kansas Facts
This book is a critical study John Brown, one of the major fole. It is not a biography of John Brown but a penetrating analysis of old and new historical evidence throwing a brilliant searchlight on Brown's character and his role in the anti-slavery movement. It has its origins largely in Kansas troubles of 1856 which contributed much to national folklore associated with the name of John Brown.
al study of the problem of the legend of ajor folk stories of the American peo- of
terials, and the revaluation of the role of John Brown.
In the sense that the legend focused around the Kansas phase of Brown's career, the work is an intensive study in local history, interesting in its own right, but given a peculiar importance because of its critical bearing upon national history. From the standpoint of a study in historiography and the evolution of the John Brown legend, it is unique, and should be of interest to students of literature and to sociologists as well as to historians.

Harold Stassen Will Be Speaker At Convocation
Governor Harold E. Stassen of Minnesota will be the speaker at an all-University convocation Wednesday, Feb. 10. He is awaiting call into combat duty with the Navy, as he is a lieutenant commander in the Naval Reserve.
Governor Stassen, 35, had the distinction four years ago to be elected the youngest governor in the history of Minnesota, and at that time the youngest governor in the United States. In November, he was elected for his third term as governor.
Regarding his Naval duty, he said,
“This war must be won by men of
my generation, and I want to be with
them.” He believes also that liberal
Republicans must lead the way to
ward a stable world and domestic
recovery after the war.
His record as Governor of Minnesota shows numerous reforms, among which are a small-loan law to eliminate usury, a model labor relations law to deal with strikes, institution of civil service, and a reduction of $20,000,000 in the state debt.
Already dominant in the Republican party, Governor Stassen was the keynoster of the Republican National Committee in 1940.

Prof. Morgan Shelled On Trip To States
Charles Morgan, new professor in the School of Engineering and Architecture, is the most recent University faculty member to be a passenger on a boat shelled by a Nazi submarine.
Professor Morgan's encounter with the Axis came last fall on his return trip to the United States from South America
alter completing drawings for the Columbiano de Seguros, an insurance company, for Trujill Gomez and Martinez Cardenas, South American architects.
A Member of Crew
The raider fired three shots, none of which struck the boat. Two shells fell into the water about 400 feet from the boat, making excavations in the sea large enough to submerge two or three skyscrapers; Prof. Morgan says and the third sheet did not explode as far as the officers and the crew could tell.
The deck of the ship was sprayed with pieces of shrapnel, but no one was injured. The chase lasted one hour. After the attack, the raider could be seen a mile away, clearly enough to be identified.
One half day out of Barranquilla the San Pablo, a United Fruit company boat on which Professor Morgan had obtained passage on the condition that he be considered a member of the crew, was attacked by a Nazi submarine.
Go To Life Boats
As a precautionary measure against future attacks, the captain of the San Pablo ordered the crew to take life boats. In the attempt to get into a life boat, Professor Morgan was thrown overboard. Members of the crew, who later became fast friends of the architect, rescued him.
Future Buildings to Be Modern
"Uuncle Charley," as the genial professor prefers to be called, likes to etch, wood turn, and go boating. He enjoys reading poems by Emerson and Thoreau, as he feels the potes describe the true essence of architecture.
Professor Morgan believes the buildings of the future will be constructed along modern, but not modernistic lines. He distinguishes between the two by telling a story of a modernistic painter's explanation of his work to a friend.
Being the Chicago associate of Frank Lloyd Wright, the professor is a friend of the noted architect. Professor Morgan believes that because Mr. Wright plans every building to interpret his client's character, he is making one of the greatest contributions to the American way of life.
Mr. Morgan feels, however, that if and when Wright's work is against the principles of architecture, students and the general public should not become confused to the point of allowing the work to be harmful to the more general cause of balance construction, as taught by Louis H. Sullivan.
Germany Bans All Forms Of Public Entertainment
New York. Feb. 3 (INS) — All movie houses and other places of amusement will be closed in Germany from today through Saturday as a result of the Nazi defeat at Stalingrad, the Berlin radio said today according to F. C. C. Monitors. All public entertainment also is banned during the four-day period.

This is the second concert in the series of organ vespers to be played by Professor Simpson. He received his B.A. degree from the University and his masters from the University of Michigan. In Paris he studied under the world's greatest living organist, Marcel Du Pre. He has played in recitals throughout the state. Two years ago he was dean of the Kansas chapter of the American Guild of Organists.
Washington, Feb. 3 (INS) — The House rules committee, after a stormy session, today approved a resolution to extend the life of the Dies committee investigating un-American activities for another two years.
Dies Committee Will Continue Activities

Fourth of Food Will Go Abroad
Washington, —(INS)— Secretary of Agriculture Wickard today told Congress that one-fourth of U. S. food production would be needed for the armed forces and lend-lease shipments next year as he accused the War Manpower Commission of "locking the barn after the horse was stolen" in failing to prevent a drain on farm workers.
Wickard, defending lend-lease food shipments before the House ways and means committee and declaring that Russia could not stay in the war without American food supplies, also disclosed that he was having a good sized argument with the army and War Production Board. Wickard expressed fears that because of WPB limitations on steel there would not be enough machinery available to plant this year's crops.

Greer Garson, one of the reasons why "Random Harvest" is doing so phenomenally at the Radio City Music Hall, may soon be Doctor Garson. She already possesses a college degree and has been invited by Rollins College to be the first screen actress to receive an honorary degree, Doctor of Humanities, in recognition of "Mrs. Miniver."
Zippers are hard to get. Yet all the stars want them in their gowns. When Lucille Ball was being fitted for her lead role in "Best Foot Forward," she suggested that the zippers used in her Du Barry gowns be reclaimed, marked with her name, and be used hereafter in all her succeeding wardrobe. We pass this along, girls, if you, too, are faced with a zipper shortage.

MORE FUN:
What kind of films do our fighting boys best like? Movies that provoke laughs is the answer. Red Skelton has received word from boys on several fighting fronts aplauding his comicalities in "Ship Ahoy," "Whistling in the Dark," and "Whistling in Dixie."
"Films of this kind keep our morale high; give us more of them," the boys write. We'd like to suggest that the boys over there, and over here too, will give their morale an enormous boost when they roar with Red in "DuBarry Was a Reader" and in "I Dood It."
NO DUDE:
John Nesbitt, current New York visitor, is Hollywood's man with the perfect voice. He's the guiding genius behind those absorbing Passing Parade shorts, three of which have won "Oscars" for their excellence. Oddly enough he's never attended an Academy Award dinner to receive his oscars. The reason: Nesbitt doesn't own a dress-suit.

'Us, Inc.' Iron Five Rests As Olathe Downs Kansas 42-32
Junior Max Kissell is a probable starter against Iowa State in Hoch Saturday, replacing Forward Charlie Black in Watkins hospital with the flu. Coach F. C. Allen reports that there is no chance of Black playing as he has a temperature of 104.
Kansas' Iron Five took a day off last night resting for the Iowa State game here Saturday and watched the Olathe Clippers defeat a substitute quintet 42-32 at Gardner.
Various ailments kept the rundown Jayhawkers on the bench. Coach Phog Allen, looking ahead to the Cyclone contest and not greatly concerned with the outcome of the Clipper game, left Charlie Black at home with the flu, benched Otto Schnellbacher with a shoulder injury and Armand Dixon with a charleyhorse. John Buescher and Ray Evans sat in suit throughout.
Iowa State's green squad led Oklahoma for 32 minutes before bowing 46-37 at Ames Monday. Sparked by Ray Wehde of "Us, Inc." the Cyclones bottled Titanic Tucker with only nine points for 32 minutes before the big center and Allie Paine pulled Oklahoma out.
Wehde and twin brother Roy gave Bob "Manacles" McCurdy, Sooner defensive star, a bad night as they totaled 16 points against his guarding, Ray scored 12 while Manacles guarded him, 15 in all and Roy tallied four points after McCurdy was shifted to Roy in the second period.
Gene Oulman acquired a defensive reputation as he allowed Tucker only nine points before going out on fouls with five minutes to play. Up to the time of Oulman's departure Louie Menze's cagers led Oklahoma. He will guard Black.
The Kansas-Clipper record for the season shows an even break, each five winning two games.

NOW PHOG MESSES UP THE BOOKIE GAME
Kansas City bookies, who are engaging in a little winter diversion (hoss racing ain't so hot now), are beginning to hate Phog Allen. Phog cleaned out the bookies in the Municipal auditorium Saturday night when his Jay-hawks nearly upset Great Lakes.
Sports weren't placing any even money bets on Kansas so Bookie Bob and Cleanup Jack enticed suckers by giving Kansas bettors eight, then 12 points. "Basketball is quite different from the horses, quite different," one bookie commented as he paid off a Jayhawk backer (final score, 47-41, Great Lakes).
Then last night after the bookies handicapped the Kansas-Clipper game in Allen's favor, Phog sabotages their sure thing again by sitting the game out with his Iron Five and letting the Clippers win.
Increasing interest in basketball has lured bookies. Instead of hibernating for the winter, they make book around the gambling centers (New York-Chicago) on a set of games, big and small. The newspapers catch it about press time as sports call up at 11-12 p.m. for results on Slippery Rock-Pennslyvania Normal, DeKalb-Naiperville, Morningside-South Dakota Teachers, Catawba-Wabash, Upsala-Union.
(P. S.—There wasn't any extra folding money in the pockets or Kansas would have had another enriched backer."

The former Portis flash who averaged more than 20 points a season his senior year in high school will probably replace ailing Charlie Black in the Iowa State game. Kissell, fast and a sharpshooter, sank five baskets against Olathe last night.
Norman, Feb. 4—(Special)—Oklahoma's baseball team, which began practice Feb.1, will be practically an all-freshman aggregation under a substitute coach. War wrecked Oklahoma's formidable sophomoric club of last year which was stacking up this season as the greatest college club ever developed at Norman.

Whiz Kids May Play Indiana
(By International News Service)
A Chicago stadium basketball doubleheader featuring the two western conference leaders, Indiana and Illinois, in one game and Camp Grant and Great Lakes in the other, was in the making today with the blessing of the army and the navy.
Illinois and Indiana, ranked as No. 1 and 2 quintets in the nation, will not meet for the Big Ten title this year.
The only thing needed to stage the Camp Grant-Great Lakes game would be the acceptance of the Warriors' challenge by Lieut. Comm. J. Russell Cook, athletic officer at Great Lakes. Slashing of a few yards of red tape will be necessary before the Indiana-Illinois game gets the green light.
The Western conference, from a custom of long standing, frowns on post season games under which category the Indiana-Illinois affair would come.

Two Experiments . . .
-
Dr. Kenneth Moore Makes Hobby of Lab Psychology With Hot and Cold Bats
By RUTH TIPPIN
Laboratory experimenting may be a job to psychology students, but to Dr. Kenneth Moore, graduate student and assistant instructor of psychology, it is his principal hobby. He likes it
Recently completing the second of a series of experiments to determine the effect of temperature on behavior (using white rats as subjects), Dr. Moore reported his results to the psychology club at its regular meeting Tuesday.
The first of these experiments was performed by Leo Hellmer, assistant professor of psychology at the University two years ago, who discovered that rats in a cold room (about 55 degrees) learned more quickly than those in warmer rooms.
Mr. Moore checked Prof. Hellmer's results and proceeded further to determine whether changing the temperature in the room would change the rat's performance. Strangely enough, a rat who was changed from a hot room of approximately 95 degrees to a cold room relearned the simple maze with which they were tested in about half the time it took for a rat changing from cold to hot.
Also, the cold room rats were more healthy, and they learned more methodically, while the hot room rats tended to be sickly and erratic.
In checking Prof. Hellmer's results, Dr. Moore discovered that hot room rats learning the maze for the first time took from two to four times as long as those in the cold room.
All this may be applied to human beings as well as to more rodents. The belief that behavior changes with temperature has been held by Prof. R.H. Wheeler of the psychology department for a long time.In fact, Prof.Wheeler suggested the experiment himself.
Dr. Moore has been a graduate student at the University for five years, and is familiar to many students who have taken a psychology laboratory course under him. He received his doctor's degree at the University last spring.

Tuesday night, it was a battle between Coops in the first game with Jayhawk outpointing Rock Chalk 23-19. Both teams were cold, John Rebeer leading the winners with seven points and Joe and John Bossi pacing the losers with 11 points between them.
Hellhounds continued on the victory trail, edging out Allen SemiCoop 25-23. Hamry Whrerry led the Heller's attack with nine points. Gene Frazier of the losers was high scorer of the game with 11 points.
Admiral Land Defends Sailors Against Rumors
Washington, Feb. 3- (INS)—Defending the U. S. merchant marine against rumors and reports of personnel difficulties, OWI Chief Elmer Davis today disclosed that merchant marine casualties totaled more than 3,200 in the first year of the war and said the men of this branch have "delivered the goods" and shown "patriotism, courage and devotion to duty."
Davis made public a report from Rear Admiral Emory S. Land, war shipping administrator, which he requested to clear up the situation.
Loyal and Efficient
"Admiral Land's report shows that American seamen are loyal and efficient," Davis said.
Highlights of Land's report included:
1. Merchant marine casualties (Dead and missing only) have totaled more than 3,200-3.8 per cent of their total number of 70,000 in one year of war. Casualties of the armed services in the same period amounted to less than one per cent of their total number.
2. About three-fourths of the offshore merchant scamen are always at sea—"in the front line."
Sailors Willing
3. Willingness of sailors to brave bombs and torpedoes was shown recently when 100,000 persons responded to WSA's call for experienced seamen.
4. Actual pay for the average able seaman or fireman, is about $57 a week, about what a second class rigger earns in a shipyard.
5. WSA's labor relations division, which investigates all reports of interaction of discipline, found practically all such incidents occurred in port and were the result of continued strain.
6. Despite an expected increase in enemy attacks on merchant shipping, a greater percentage of survivals is expected this year because of more escort vessels, better-armed ships, more and improved safety devices and more experienced crews.
More Survivals Expected
Land said that the examination or 302 log books, covering voyages from January to November, 1942, disclosed only 56 cases of infraction of discipline of which only 32 were deemed serious enough to warrant disciplinary action.

Steel Shortage Causes Listed
Washington, (INS) — Placing the responsibility for the steel shortage on the armed forces, the big steel companies and the WPB, the Truman committee today said that it appears that barely enough steel will be produced this year and thereafter to satisfy major war necessities and there is no assurance that all the needs of essential civilian industries will be filled.
In a special report to the Senate, the committee termed steel the stumbling block of war production and listed these factors as responsible.
1. The armed forces because they underestimated the amount of steel they would need.
2. The big steel companies because of their desire "to prevent any expansion that might react unfavorably against their control of the steel industry after the war."
Pi Phi Wins Three Table Tennis Games
3. The War Production Board because of its delay in converting industry to a war basis.
Only three of the five table tennis matches scheduled for this week were played and the other two were forfeited.
Pi Beta Phi won three games from Alpha Chi Omega; Kappa Alpha Theta defeated Gamma Phi two games out of three played; and Corbin hall won two and lost one of its three matches with IWW.

Wayne University recently received a gift of $500 to aid in development of a branch of the Hooker Scientific library.
U S Bombers Attack Targets in Germany Following RAF Raid
London, (INS)—Heavy bombers of the US Army Air Force attacked targets in Northwest Germany today following a devastating RAF assault against Hamburg during the night.
The new raid, following several hours after giant RAF planes had blasted factories producing and equipping submarines at Hamburg was the second attack carried out by American bombers against German soil.
WAA Charts Routes For Group Hiking
Hiking was initiated as a method of gaining points at the February meeting of the Women's Athletic Association at Robinson gymnasium this afternoon. All University women interested in WAA membership were invited to this meeting. They were offered the hiking plan to gain a part of the 125 points necessary for membership in the association.
For those who plan to take advantage of hiking as a method of gaining points, there will be more organized hikes. All hikes must be taken in the company of at least one other person. Hiking routes have been charted.
Reich Bombed Again After Berlin Assault
London, Feb. 3 (INS) - Royal Air Force bombers attacked Germany during the night, it was announced today.
The raid was the first by the British against the Reich since the large port of Hamburg was battered Saturday night in the wake of two daring daylight assaults on Berlin which disrupted proceedings of the celebration marking the 10th anniversary of Hitler's appointment as Chancellor.

Today's Students Must Strive For International Viewpoint
The youth of today is preparing for war, if not already engaged in it. The energies of the young are being bent to the task of training their minds and bodies to martial trades. The farmer is beating his plowshares into swords; the student is trading his books for a bayonet. But there is more at stake today than victory alone. Youth must look to tomorrow. Youth must prepare for the peace to come.
The colleges and universities of the world throughout the centuries have been leaders in great movements - political, social, cultural. In them have first appeared the symptoms of a diseased society; in them have first appeared the spiritual and intellectual remedies and medicines. Universities have always been centers for discussion, for liberal thinking, for leadership. In Europe this tendency has been even more marked than it has been in America, but in the last few years various university groups have assumed a leadership in discussion in the United States. Perhaps the best example of this leadership is the University of Chicago Round Table, which has won a reputation for open-minded consideration of timely, pertinent topics and a following among the thinking population of the nation.
The student of today will be the leader of tomorrow. He must be prepared for that responsibility, for upon him will rest the weight of the future of a world. He must have an international outlook colored with humanity, a liberal viewpoint brightened with optimism. Movements are stirring throughout the civilized world; movements for a better world, a freer world, an integrated world; movements to revolutionize world commerce, government, culture; movements toward simplification and union. The backbone of these movements is youth, for only youth has the energy, the imagination, the resilience to conceive their purpose, to believe in their goals, and to carry them through to their successful completion.
This is the responsibility of the youth of today: to view the world with fearless eyes, to face it boldly with the knowledge that the world and its people obey certain natural laws and that these laws may be known, to recognize emotions for what they are, to think clearly about the things that matter most, to strive for the best, though their striving be tempered with the knowledge that the best can seldom be achieved, to believe in their ideals and fight for their faiths.
The day of isolation is over. The world is too small for walls and barriers. The seas have been straddled; the mountains have been leveled. We may well adapt the battle cry of Hitler to our own uses. Let this be the battle cry of freedom, tolerance, union, and the international outlook: Today the United Nations; tomorrow the world!—J.G.
Kansas City Faces Lack of Labor In Swing Shift Recreation Plans
The efforts of Kansas City, Mo., to provide organized recreation for war workers will probably be watched with interest by many other cities in the nation who are faced with
---
Just Wondering
If students who claim they go to "K.S.C." know that their school is listed in the 1943 World Almanac as Kansas State College of Agriculture and Applied Sciences.
--the same problem of keeping war workers happy even though they get off work after the usual bedtime hour of most citizens.
Kansas City proposes to have after-midnight baseball games, sunrise dances, all-night bowling alleys, cafes, meetings, and shows. Whether this experiment works depends very largely upon the city's chances of getting people to run the establishments after midnight.
To anyone who has been in Kansas City business places (or almost any town, for that matter), it at once appears that the business will have an uphill fight to find anyone to work during these "graveyard" hours. The labor shortage in non-war industries and businesses has been serious for many months, and it will not be easy to find people to work after midnight.
Junior high school waitresses, pinboys, and cleanup boys and girls have become the businessman's answer to the labor shortage up to now, but most parents will not allow their children to work at these hours. The possibility of finding older persons to do the work seems to be out of the question.
Kansas City and its war industries have the money and the buildings to provide this kind of entertainment for their workers. The big problem, labor, is still unsolved.—B.H.
Wonderful moonlight nights we're having these mornings.—K.C. Star.

Russians Halt German Retreat From Caucasus
(By International News Service)
(By International News Service)
Trapped German armies in the Caucasus were reported to be fleeing across the Kerch strait to the Crimea and over the narrow northern arm of the Sea of Azov to the Ukraine shore. Moscow reports to Reuters said the Soviet Black Sea fleet and the Red air force were attacking transports attempting to rescue the remnants of the beaten German and Satellite divisions.
Estimates of the number of Axis forces caught in the Caucasus encirclement varied from 70,000 to 250,000 men. There appeared to be little hope of escape through Rostov as enshrining Soviet columns closed in on this gateway to the Caucasus and cut the last railway over which the enemy might have retreated.
The RAF continued its smashing offensive on the Reich's western front in another night attack.
RAF Bombs Again
Official information was still lacking today on the progress of the sea and air battle in the Southwest Pacific. A navy communique reported merely that "air and surface engagements between U S and enemy forces in the Guadalcanal area of the Solomons are continuing."
One declared that "You may safely say that the Japs are trying their best to take Guadalcanal."
Naval men amplified this unrevealing announcement somewhat. Japs Attempt Comeback
In the area to the north, Rabaut was bombed for the fifth consecutive day by Allied heavy bombers under command of General Douglas McArthur. An enemy warship was bombed off Wide Bay. Results of these attacks were not observed.
OPA Has Announced New Coffee Ration
Washington, Feb. 3.—(INS)The Office of Price Administration today announced that the next coffee raion will be cut from one pound per person every five weeks to one pound every six weeks because of reduced inventories in the hands of wholesalers and retailers.
Stamp No. 25, the next coffee stamp in war ration book 1, becomes valid on Feb. 8 and will be good for the purchase of one pound of coffee through March 21. Stamp 28, which has been valid since Jan. 4, expires at midnight Feb. 7.

Senator Introduces New Bill To Change Present Beer Law
Better enforcement of the existing 3.2 beer law was asked in the state Senate yesterday by Senator Hotchkiss, Lyndon, who asked that the penalty for violating the law be changed.
Existing laws state that violators shall have their permits suspended for six months before beer can be sold again. The new bill as introduced provides for a five-year suspension for all cases other than first offenses.
Appels for a weaker beer, one with an alcoholic content of one half of one per cent, have not been introduced to the senate in the form of bills as yet.
Rationing Allows 11 Cans of Food
Washington, Feb. 3 (INS) — American consumers today stood a good chance of having an "average" of about 11 cans of fruits and vegetables available per person next month under the point-rationing system going into effect March 1.
Indications were that the 48 "points" which each individual will have available to "spend" on the more than 200 rationed items during March will permit the purchase of around six cans of food per person, plus an allowable inventory of five cans each.
ROCK CHALK TALK---figure out what the professor is talking about. In a recent Editorial olass, Prof. Elmer F. Bath was discussing Time with such pertinent introductory phrases as: "When your Time comes—!" and admonitions to "use your Time more effectively." Or should the last one have been lower case?
OPA officials emphasized, however, that the point values for the various foods will not be determined until after all retail sales are halted at midnight Feb. 20. Every item will have the same point value in every store in the country.
Main British Force Near Tunisian Line
London, Feb. 3 (INS) — The main force of the British eighth army moving westward through Libya was reported today to have advanced to within 25 miles of the Tunisian frontier while forward patrols already across the border probed at Axis defenses in the vicinity of the Mareth line.
Algiers radio broadcasts said that British Gen. Sir Bernard L. Montgomery's forward elements were engaged in patrol action beyond Ben Gardane, 20 miles west of the Tripolitanian border, and were feeling out the Axis positions in the direction of Matmata.
Matmata, 75 miles west of Ben Gardane, lies behind the Mareth, or "Little Maginot," defense line.

U-Boat Threat To Remain, Knox Informed Navy
New York, Feb. 3 (INS) — The continued threat of submarine warfare was emphasized today by American and British naval chiefs who warned that further shipping losses must be expected before the battle of the Atlantic is won.
"The enemy submarine is our most menacing danger now," said Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox in an address before the annual Foreign Press association dinner. His voice was carried from Washington by telephone lines and reproduced over a loudspeaker system.
"We have struggled desperately to meet it but we don't yet have the equipment to do the job properly. As I have said repeatedly, we must soberly face severe losses in the months ahead until our united power conquers the U-boats . . ."
A. V. Alexander, First Lord of the British admiralty, speaking by short-wave radio, told of the activities of British corvettes and other anti-submarine craft in combatting the U-boat menace in the eastern Atlantic. Some, he said, are being operated by American sailors. All are under U.S. command.
"I myself have a particular reason to know of this constant cooperation and to be grateful for it," he related, "since an American naval aircraft sank a U-boat within some 20 miles of a British warship in which I was travelling in mid-Atlantic during last summer."
In a message, President Roosevelt called on the association to "play a great part and accept a great responsibility" in helping achieve a lasting world peace.
President Cheers Bereaved Parents
Washington, Feb. 3—(INS)—Mr. and Mrs. Thomas F. Sullivan of Waterloo, Iowa, whose five navy sons are missing today were in Washington visiting the President and then to start a tour of the country's production centers and urge that more planes and guns be turned out to hit the enemy.
After conferring with Rear Admiral C. H. Woodward, chief of the navy's incentive division, Mrs. Sullivan said that "we have offered out services to make a tour of defense plants to speak to the workers and to impress upon them the necessity of producing more and more ships and planes."
Survivors of Sunken Ship Landed at Miami, Fla.
10 Vote on Tax Exemption A bill to provide exemption for persons in military service from paying the state income tax during the war and six months after the war was recommended for passage by the state Senate assessment and taxation committee yesterday.

Mrs. Sullivan still clings to hope that her five boys who were lost when the cruiser Juneau sank last November are still alive.
"I haven't given up hope as yet," she said. "They used to write letters asking us to keep our chins up."
WANT ADS
Washington, Feb. 3 (INS)—The Navy announced today that a medium-size British merchant vessel had been torpedoed and sunk during the middle of November in the Atlantic off the coast of South America. Survivors have been landed at Miami.

Knox Answers Disunity Charge
Washington, Feb. 3. — (INS)—Secretary of the Navy Knox emphatically denied before the Senate naval affairs committee today that there is any disunity between commanders of Naval, Air and Army forces in the Southwest Pacific.
"The secretary emphatically denied that there were any differences, disunity of lack of cooperation among the command of the various units, such as air, army and navy," said Walsh.
Knox's denial was disclosed by Sen. Walsh (D) Mass, chairman of the committee, after Knox had given the committee an inside picture of conditions as he found them on his recent trip to the Southwest Pacific fighting area.
Several members of the committee asked Knox to answer rumors and assertions of disunity because of a lack of a supreme command.
"He said he found all units cooperating with enthusiasm and left no doubt in my mind, whatever, but that the fullest and most complete unity of command exists."
Philadelphia, Feb. 3—(INS)—A search was being conducted today for a tube of radium worth $10,000 which had been used at the Cramp shipbuilding yards to X-ray certain types of welds.
Radium Supply Gone From Ship Yards
Frank Hartman, radium "detective" representing the Canadian Radium and Uranium Corporation of New York, reported he failed to locate the metal with a delicate apparatus which detects radium within a radius of 500 yards and expressed the opinion that the valuable metal may have been removed from the yards.
Hartman warned that any person in possession of the radium was endangering his health and possibly his life.
"If a person is near that tube for 12 hours he may develop pernicious anemia," he said. "Hoid it for 10 minutes and a serious burn will result, and if the tube is squeezed, an explosion will result."
House Receives Bill To Probe Newsprint
Washington, Feb. 3 (INS) — Rep. Charles A. Halleck (R) Ind., today introduced a resolution in the House to direct the interstate and foreign commerce committee to make an investigation into curtailment of newsprint.
An investigation of OFA and WPBD plans for concentration, standardization, simplification, and grade labelling of foods also would be authorized.
Requests Food Staff Changes
According to Miss Elma R. Stauffer, at Watkins Memorial hospital, all changes in the food handling staffs of any of the organized houses should be reported to the hospital immediately.

WAAC's Request Status In Army
Washington, Feb. 3—(INS)—The Senate military affairs committee today voted to recommend favorably to the Senate a bill which would take the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps into the army.
Col. Oveta Culp Hobby, director of the WAACS told the committee that members of the corps wanted regular status as members of the army, rather than as an auxiliary force.
Col. Hobby said membership in the WAACS now totals 31,000, of which 700 are Negroes, and that volunteers in the corps are being accepted at the rate of 4,000 a week.
Passage of the bill would give the WAACS all the benefits now held by men in the regular army.
"We expect to have a total membership of 150,000 by the end of the present year," Mrs. Hobby told the committee.
Washington, Feb. 3 (INS) — Rep. Paul J. Kilday (D) Texas, late today took the House floor to issue a scathing denunciation of plans of the War Manpower Commission to draft married men with children unless they are assigned jobs in essential war industries.
Kilday Decries Plan To Take Married Men
Kilday, in his attack, charged that Congress had turned over too much of its powers to the War Manpower Commission. He alleged that the WMC's threat to take married men threatened the American institution of the family.
Kilday served notice that he would reintroduce a bill to form a national pool of single men which must be exhausted before men with families could be called into service.

New Mexico Splits On Labor Legislation
Santa Fe, N. M., Feb. 3—(INS) The New Mexico state legislature was sharply split today over a proposal for regulation and taxation of the receipts of labor unions.
The bill, introduced yesterday by Sen. A. E. Pettitt and J. H. Nullis, would require registration of all labor unions, fix their dues and levy a school tax upon their gross receipts.
Army Will Require 'Essential' Workers
Washington, Feb. 3. (INS)—War Manpower Commission sources predicted today that it will be necessary to "dip heavily" into the rolls of men employed in "essential" activities to fill the nation's goal of 10,000,000 men in the armed forces this year.
One WMC spokesman said that a 3-B classification—an employee of an "essential" industry, who is not a "necessary man" within the industry—was no guarantee of prolonged deferment from military service, although declining to speculate when such men might be called.
He pointed out that the supply of 1-A regestrants already is virtually exhausted, except for the 100,000 youths who become 18 years of age each month, and that in many states married men with wives only already are being called.
It was explained, however, that before 3-B men are drafted, local boards will reclassify and call men who remain in non-essential jobs, despite the WMC action yesterday in listing some 70 occupations and activities which will be "non essential" even to men with dependents after April 1.

Topeka, (INS)—A controversial anti-labor union bill, originally scheduled to reach the floor of the legislature this week, will not be given floor consideration until next week. Sen. Thale Skovgard, Green-leaf its sponsor, said today.
Before going into the bill, which would give the state strict control over the labor unions, the legislature will knock off for the afternoon to be guests of the staff of the Topeka army air base. The lawmakers will get an opportunity to see just how the army trains its bomber crews.

A whittling contest will be open to anyone who will bring a knife and a chunk of wood. The contest will be judged by Jenongahanna Petruchio Zyxtwythe Oberdowski and Company, and a prize will be awarded.
The party is informal; however this does not mean a sweater and skirt affair. Admission is 25c.
CVC Meets Tuesday To Assign Tasks
New and old officers of the Coed Volunteer Corps conducted a joint meeting in the Union building last night. Records and properties of the old sergeants were turned over to the newly-elected ones.
Jean Hoffman, new major, called the meeting and presided. Election of lieutenants will be held in platoons, each of which does not have an officer above a sergeant to elect one. Miss Hoffman announced.
The next meeting will be held Tuesday evening in the Union building to assign the lieutenants special tasks. Also at this meeting records will be completed and checked.

Volunteers Wanted To Make Bandages For Red Cross Kits
Coeds interested in making surgical bandages for the Red Cross should report to the junior high school building at Ninth and Massachusetts streets now, Jean Hoffman, major of the Co-ed Volunteer Corps, has announced. The sewing room will be open from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. every week day and on Monday night.
Volunteers are asked to wear wash dresses or aprons and no nail polish, Miss Hoffman said. Head coverings will be supplied at the sewing room.

Allies Commence Great Offensive Against Enemy
The brunt of land action continued to be borne by the Soviet armies, which surged ahead on a five-hundred mile front from Kursk to the Caucasus and tightened a net in which Nazi forces-estimated at from 70,000 to 250,000 men are trapped.
By International News Service
the greatest concentrated Allied offensive against the military strength of the Axis since the war began was carried out on a far-flung battleground today.
But at the same time, the RAF extended its bombing activities over an unprecedentedly wide area, carrying out simultaneous heavy attacks against vital objectives in Germany, Italy, and France, while in North Africa the United States army air force took a record toll of 26 enemy planes in a series of air battles.
The most encouraging news from the Russian front meanwhile came by way of London in a broadcast by the British radio. It reported that Adolph Hitler's army of the Caucasus is in full retreat by the only route still open—the dangerous and highly vulnerable Kerch straits.
In other war theaters, British bombers pounded Japanese objec-ives in Burma and American pilots ashed at enemy bases throughout he Southwestern Pacific.
Seniors Will March This Year As Usual
Celebrate Anniversary
Activities for Saturday, Makins stated, unless student opt the senior dance and reception that night. Because the use of the Memorial Union ballroom for the reception and dance is impossible, the future of the party has not been planned. If seniors favor it, the reception and dance will probably be held in Robinson gymnasium; if not, the reception for faculty and parents will take place Sunday afternoon. Baccalaureate and graduation plans are the same as in the past.
Seniors will make the traditional march down the hill to the stadium this spring just as other graduating classes have done in former years, in spite of the fact that plans for other senior activities must be changed, Willis Tompkins, senior class president. announced today.
Activities for Saturday, May 15, will be canceled, Mr. Tompkins stated, unless student opinion favors the continuance of dance and reception $ ^{*} $

Officers Inspect KU Pershing Rifles
The regimental inspection of the University company of Pershing Rifles was made last Monday evening by three officers from the Seventh regimental headquarters located at Washington University, St. Louis, Mo. The group of inspection officers included Cadet Lt. Col. Ted Allen, Cadet Major Don Gross, and Cadet Lt. Robert Slokl.
Inspection consisted of drill, rifle match, personnel, and individual competition of the officers for recognition as the outstanding officer in the Seventh regiment.

All Fiction Has Same Motif--Mott
The dean of the University of Missouri School of Journalism defined his use of "sensationalism" as anything shocking, exciting, or thrilling; and "sentimentality" as that of the saacheria sort.
Sensationalism and sentimentality are the two elements that have characterized magazine fiction throughout its history. Dr. Frank Luther Mott pointed out yesterday in his lecture on "Fiction in the Old Magazines," in Fraser theater.
"For the study of social history, to get to the thinking and feeling of millions, one must go to short stories newspapers and best sellers," he said.
He asserted that the same motifs characterize short fiction today that characterized early short fiction. He stated that at least 3000 short stories are published every year, and that they must have importance because people read them.
WEATHER
Slightly warmer east, little change in temperature-except becoming cooler extreme northwest late this afternoon. Little change in temperature west, becoming somewhat cooler east light.
Pre-Medics May Finish This Semester
Freshman and sophomore pre-medical students, whether or not they are enlisted in the Army Enlisted Reserve Corps, and sophomore engineers enlisted in the AERC will be allowed to finish the present semester, according to a directive received today by Laurence C. Woodruff, registrar.
The information further indicated that not all seniors enlisted in the AERC would be allowed to complete this semester. "Senior (fourth year) students in the Enlisted Reserve Corps (non-ROTC) who are pursuing approved technical engineering courses will continue in an inactive status until graduation, or upon the completion of the first full semester or substantially corresponding academic period that begins in 1943, whichever is earlier," the directive stated. No provision was made for seniors in the AERC who are not enrolled in technical engineering courses.
Previous Directives Rescinded
The directive, which was sent from the headquarters of the Seventh Service Command, stated that all previous information in conflict with the provisions of this directive are rescinded. This latest information summarized the entire army reserve situation as it now stands.
Concerning medical and pre-medical students not in the Enlisted Reserve Corps the directive said, "If inducted under Selective Service prior to the end of the first full semester or substantially corresponding academic period that begins in 1943, they will be placed on inactive duty to continue such courses until the end of that semester or period. They will then be called to active duty, at which time they may be de-

Denaturalization of Badger German-Born Nazis to be Sought
Milwaukee, Feb. 4 (INS)—Twenty-four persons of German birth today faced denaturalization proceedings in the government's first major offensive in Wisconsin against alleged Nazi sympathizers.
One of those named in the action filed in federal court in Milawukee was Paul Knauer, an insurance man who was vice-president of the pro-Nazi German American citizens alliance which was active prior to Pearl Harbor.
Harry T. O'Connor, in charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation office in Milwaukee, said the defendants were charged with obtaining US citizenship "fraudulently and illegally" and with no intent to renounce allegiance to Germany in good faith.

Mr. Krueger was not only an organist, but also a virtuoso on the cello. He toured Europe and South America as a cellist. Besides being an instrumentalist, he wanted to be a conductor, believing that only as a conductor could he achieve the fullest success that music had to offer.
His parents wanted him to study law. To please them, he studied law at the University of Heidelberg and of Vienna. He received his degree, then promptly returned to music. He studied with Arthur Nikisch, then Europe's foremost conductor. Of all his pupils, Nikisch predicted the most success for Mr Krueger.
Conducted Orchestras
He then conducted orchestras throughout Europe, but always had a desire to return to the United States. In Seattle, where he stayed for six years, Mr. Krueger built a symphony orchestra. Desiring to return to the Middle West, he came to Kansas City in 1933, a depression year, to start a symphony orchestra.
Recently, Deems Taylor, music critic for the New York Times, called the Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra one of the eleven best symphonic orchestras in the United States. He called Krueger the only American-born conductor of a major symphonic orchestra.
Government May Abandon Occupational Registration
Proposed by the women's advisory committee of the Manpower Commission, the new program would be aimed at women who have never worked before. Questionnaires would be sent to women willing and able to do the type of work involved. A house-to-house canvass to recruit them would be made as a follow-up.
The War Manpower Commission has indicated that the proposed nationwide occupational registration of women may be abandoned in favor of an "educational program," to enroll women on a voluntary basis in specific labor-shortage areas.

Japs Planned Pearl Harbor Naval Base, Colonel Tells Shrine
Chicago, Feb. 4—(INS) — Evidence that the Japanese had planned to seize Hawaii and use Pearl Harbor as a naval base was cited today by Col. Francis H. Miles Jr., chief of the safety and security branch of the army ordnance department.
In a speech, "The Inside Story of Pearl Harbor," before the Shrine lunch club in Chicago, Col. Miles said:
"The Japs didn't attack anything which would contribute to Japanese use of the island later. They didn't bomb the airfield runways, or the gasoline and oil storage tanks or empty hangars or repair shops at the navy yard."
Book Campaign To Be Resumed
Books for men in the armed forces are again being collected in a victory book campaign sponsored by th American Library Association together with the Red Cross and the USO. Students were urged today by Mr. C. M. Baker, library director, to bring books they wish to contribute to the University library or the Lawrence Public library.
Mr. Baker also requested that fairly recent books that are in good condition be donated. He pointed out that service men are just as particular of the books they read as anyone else, and that they deserve books of high quality and not just "any old thing that can be dug out of the attic."
Technical books such as books on shop mechanics, chemistry, radio, physics, airplanes, photography, and navigation should be as recent as possible because out-dated books are no good. New novels, jokebooks, mystery stories, adventure yarns, and educational books are greatly in demand.
Last year 10 million books were collected throughout the nation for service men Through the efforts of Alpha Phi Omega, service fraternity, students at the University collected 178 volumes. The Coed Volunteer Corps is joining Alpha Phi Omega in managing the campaign this year.

In one of the exercises, Townley was pulled up on the shoulders of another where he stood in a standing position. At this point of the exercise the instructor warned the men of the danger of a jump from this position and asked them not to do it for their own safety. Witnesses said Townley attempted to dive and tumble on the mat which would break the fall from that distance. In mid-air he changed his mind and lit on his hands and knees, causing the fracture of his left arm. He was taken to Watkins hospital where he is reported to be "feeling better."
Judson Townley, College sophmore, broke his left arm in a tumbling accident yesterday when he attempted to dive off the shoulders of another student. In a five-hour navy section of physical conditioning under the direction of R. R. Strait, instructor, the men were doing calisthenics and other toughening exercises.

Latest move to expedite the cinema schedule has been the running of Sunday shows continuous from 1 p.m. until midnight. This practice, begun three weeks ago, enables four or five complete features to be shown in a day, instead of three as was done formerly.

Abe Lincoln Varsity, ATO's Hold Spotlight This Week
Alpha Tau Omega, with their dinner party at the chapter house, has the only scheduled party for this evening other than the Abe Lincoln varsity which is to be in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building from 9 until 12 o'clock.
The varsity will be an informal affair with the men wearing suits, and the women wearing street dresses, hose and heels.
to grow beards for the occasion will do their share toward lending atmosphere to the log cabin theme of the party.
An added attraction, a whittling contest, has been announced. The contestants will represent two factions, the bearded and unbearded groups. The whittling will continue for one-half hour, and the purpose of the contest will be to ascertain which whittler can produce the best statue of Abe Lincoln in the allotted amount of time.
A part of the program will be broadcast from 9:30 until 10 o'clock over the facilities of KFKU. The music will be furnished by the Pope-Bachmann band. Admission will be 25 cents, stag or date.

University Women Grant Large Sum for War Aid
The University Women's Club Thursday afternoon voted to give $25 to the Jayhawk nursery for English war orphans at Rugby, England, and to invest the club's reserve fund in war bonds amounting to $500 maturity value. This money is to be used later in the outfitting of a room in the proposed wing of the Union building for the University women.
The scholarship report showed that in addition to the club's regular $100 scholarship for a deserving young woman at the University, it had been possible this year to award two additional grants of $35 and $15 each.
The business meeting in the Union building was followed by a tea with Mrs. Paul B. Lawson acting as general chairman. She was assisted by Mrs. J. J. Jakosky, Mrs. Leonard H. Axe, Mrs. Waldemar Geltch, and Miss Cora M. Downs.
Spiced tea, orange-bread sand-wiches, and little cakes were served to the members by Mrs. T. D. Jones, Miss Helen Wagstaff, Mrs. George B. Smith, Mrs. Marston McCluggage, Mrs. W. H. Shoemaker, and Mrs. L. L. Boughton. Dr. Florence Sherbon and Miss Maud Smelser poured tea.
Tiny dolls in the costume of grandmother's day seated busy with their handwork, formed the table centerpiece. The dolls, whose faces were actually made of peanuts and covered by yarn coiffures of the '70s, were made for a recent club anniversary by Mrs. Guy Smith, assisted by Mrs. E. B. Stouffer.
Dressed in rich variety, with such details as fichus, bertha collars, work-bags, and fur capelets, they worked at bits of tatting, knitting, and needlepoint. They were placed in a setting complete with spinning

sas House today was ready to approve on a final roll call the bill establishing a home for juvenile delinquents at Atchison.
Juvenile Home Bill Up For Final Vote
The bill, approved by the House welfare committee which puts its approval on the receiving home to be set up at the state orphan asylum, was the occasion for a blast against the State Department of Social Welfare. Rep. Charles Vance, Liberal, said he had never seen the department "using any good, common sense about anything. I want to see this bill passed but I don't want the home operated by a passel of nuts."
The measure as finally approved for passage took a slap at the board by taking the appointment of a manager for the home out of the hands of that body, and giving it to the Governor. The initial appropriation, out of the state social welfare funds, was set at $25,000.

Max Kissell will replace Black, in the hospital indefinitely with a bad case of flu, but not at the high-scoring junior's forward position. Coach Phog Allen has inserted Kissell at center and moved John Buescher from his accustomed spot to forward to increase Kansas scoring and rebounding power.

Both teams have been defeated by a Delta Chi and Sigma Chi has been defeated by Phi Delta Theta for their losses this season.
Sigma Chi, with mainstay Bud French out of school waiting for an army call, is the underdog. The Beta's will be at full strength and Sigma Chi will have to contend with three scoring threats, Don Diehl, Jim Roderick, and Ranse Bennett. All have hit more than 20 points in games this season.
The ATO-Sig Alph game rates notice as a good contest. Although neither team is at the top in league play, both have smooth, evenly matched club balls. The SAE's who went great guns for the first half against the Beta's last week are given the nod.

Versatile Tucker Sparks Oklahoma in Comeback
Norman. Feb. 5—(Special).—Gerald Tucker, Oklahoma's versatile 200-pound basketball center is making progress at his new assignment as a back-line player.
Spectators at Oklahoma's last six games were surprised to see the 6-foot $ 4 \frac{1}{2} $ -inch Sooner phenom dribble, pass, screen and sink his long shots competently while stationed in Oklahoma's outside line. Tucker also:
proved he possesses fine speed when he twice stole enemy passes and ran the court dribbling to lay up the ball ahead of all pursuit.
"A basketball team can't win now days using just one attack any more than a baseball pitcher can get by throwing nothing but a fast ball." Coach Bruce Drake answered them. "You've got to have at least two or three offenses ready to go nowadays against a man-for-man defense, and you've got to teach your boys how to crack a zone defense, too.
Many fans who watched Oklahoma lose the 44-48 thriller to Kansas here Jan. 9 wondered why Tucker did not play more at his favorite post spot, under the goal.
"A great basketball center should be more than just a goal-robber or a post man. He should know how to handle the ball smoothly in the back line and hit set shots from there. It would also help if he could fast break."
"Our set stuff with Tucker on the post looks great against the weaker clubs. But it won't always percolate against a strong team. So we sometimes vary our post offense with a fast break and a roll, like the baseball pitcher who mixes a curve or slow ball with his high, hard one.
Fans who watch Oklahoma in action the last of this season will see Tucker play both on the post and back-line.

Creighton Faces Aggies Tonight
Creighton, Kansas' rival for an NCAA playoff berth, is scheduled to give Oklahoma A-M its third defeat in 64 starts in Gallagher fieldhouse at Stillwater tonight in the Bluejays last tough game before playing the Jayhawks at Omaha March 4.
Already defeated by Creighton at Omaha, 33-24, the Cowboys iron defense will have to contend with high scoring Ralph Langer and Ed Beisser. Cowboy height and the A-M home court advantage make Creighton a smaller favorite than it should be.

Scott Leads Teammates To Victory
Jack Stapleton of the Delt's was in the Phi Delt's hair all evening as he took more than his share of rebounds. Dean Huebert and Walt Quiring each scored nine points for the victors.
A fighting Delta Tau team went down before the scoring of Kirk Scott, Phi Delt, 42-29, last night which leaves the Phi Delt's the only undefended team in either the first or second division. Scott, hard working guard, hit an unusual percentage of his shots, making 17 points, to keep the Phi Delt's out in front all the way.

Bob Stevens, led his Jolliffe half teammates in a big second half that gave tham a 23-19 win over Alpha Kappa Psi. "Rip" Baumunk was the high scorer of the game with nine points. But it was Stevens as floor general and always a scoring threat who sparked the Jolliffe win.
The diminutive Battenfeld boys finally succumbed to the size of Alpha Chi Sigma, 38-31, in a game that saw the score tied 25-all at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Harold Wright piloted his team to victory, at the same time racking up 13 points. Ray Thayer was the outstanding man on the floor as he scored 18 points and although smaller than most of his opponents pulled in most of the rebounds.

Telephonic Juke Boxes
Number Please
By PHYLLL JONES
"Number, please." "Hello, central, give me 719." "That will be five cents, please." After dropping his nicel into the slot, the party on this end of the line hangs up. Wrong number? Not if it was T. Dorsey he was calling; that "Manhattan Serenade" is unmistakable.
There is something very peculiar about this telephone booth. If there weren't a cradle phone resting on that flashy plastic weren't a di-
There is something very pe
if there weren't a cradle phon
base, and if there weren't a
directory hanging by it; if both
of these confusing objects were
removed, that phone booth would
resemble nothing so much as a juke
box. On the other hand, if that
multi-colored plastic box were
honest wood with swinging doors
in front, this perplexing hybrid would
resolve itself into a public booth
for Bell's immortal.
"Manhattan Serenade" is juke stock; but who ever ordered his music by telephone? Was that the great T. Dorsey, himself, on the give? And who is that attractive blond with the earphones pictured on the placard back of the telephone? "Calling information"
"What music are you calling?"
"Sa-a-y, whom do you think you're trying to kid?"
Peggy, the juke phone operator, isn't kidding. It's her business to ring up rhythm whenever a receiver on the juke line is lifted. Peggy is just the character created by the American Amusement Company; but in Lawrence, Mrs. Elmer Butts is playing Peggy for the juke calls. Central Office on East Ninth
The central office for juke phones is at 17 East Ninth. It has been opened just two weeks; and not many calls have been received because only a few of the 15 juke phones have been distributed.
Each of the juke phones will be set up in a dine and dance establishment; and request calls may be sent in from any one. For each juke phone there is a victrola unit. All fifteen of the units make up what is known as the turntable—a staircase arrangement of the victrola units.
When a nickel is dropped in the slot of the juke phone at "A" cafe, a light flashes on the dial at the unit for the "A" phone; and the pointer on the dial jumps to one. If a dime is dropped the pointer jumps to two, and if a quarter is dropped, to five. Coins may be dropped before or after making the call.
Has Thousand Recordings
The juke phone has this advantage over the ordinary juke box: the selection of records is much greater. Peggy has a thousand records to choose from and is getting new ones as they are made. If a caller does not find the selection he wants listed in the directory, there is a possibility it may have been recently acquired. Music may be ordered by number, as listed in the directory, or simply by name, mentioning the choice of band. There are records to appeal to all tastes.
Telephone wire has been leased to the juke phone operators by Bell
Valentine's Day is February 14th
VALENTINES BULLOCK'S Joyhawk Thcatre Bldg.
Telephone Company. Mrs. Butts is equipped with the earphones and transmitter of the regular telephone operator. As soon as the light flashes on the dial of any turntable unit, she plugs into that unit and is connected with the caller.
Dedicate Your Tunes
As soon as he has made his request, she selects the right record and places it upon the revolving platform of the unit. A caller may, if he wishes, have Peggy dedicate the piece to some person; or he may call from cafe "A" and have a piece played in cafe "B," dedicated to someone there.
The first of this variation of the juke box, which has already been made into a miniature movie, was the "Betty Teletone" invented by a man in San Antonio, Texas, two years ago.

Part of the Union facilities are shared now with the Navy unit on the Hill. The ballroom has become a mess room. The recreation room was recently converted into a storeroom. The old music room is now used for Naval Officers' Club.
In the campaign for $1,000,-000 necessary to build these memorials nearly 12,000 students, alumni, and friends of the University contributed. On Oct. 28, 1925, the contract for the outer shell of the building was signed. The building was first used in the fall of 1927 when the University Cafeteria opened for service and the main lobby and reading rooms were available. New Gloster
Students now dance in the main lounge instead of the ballroom, have ping pong tables in the men's lounge instead of the recreation room, and have a new music room just off the main lounge.

The Memorial Union building, which will house the all-University Abraham Lincoln party tonight, was built in memory of the 130 students and alumni who gave their lives for their country in World War I. As early as 1919, their college mates planned to erect a memorial to them, and concluded that it should be two structures, a union for student, alumni, and faculty associations and a stadium for athletic games.

Hitler Is Teaching His Youth To Carry On Nazi Doctrines
In an America at war, a tendency has arisen to consider in theoretical detail the construction of a post-war world. Several plans have been presented and are being promoted. They are, for the most part, based on the creation of a world federation.
Post-war theorists, in devising the framework of world construction, have ignored some of the most salient problems they will have to face. One of these is: What is to be done with Hitler's youth?
In the plans of world federation, the fate of defeated nations is disposed of with vague reference to disarmament and setting the stage for democratic processes. But more — much more — than that will be necessary.
In Nazi Germany today, Hitler is mobilizing his youth. Even before they are old enough to understand why Alsace-Lorraine should belong to Germany, they are sent to camps where they are disciplined to a reverent regard for the Fuehrer and the supremacy of Germany. They are taught to believe in Nazism and to fight for what they believe. They are given a distorted view of history—a view in which Germany has stood insufferable persecution throughout centuries. Yes, the younger generation of Germany is being indoctrinated with a fervent hate of England, Russia, and the United States.
Long after the war is won and Hitler is dead, that smoldering hate will still live in the hearts of those children, then full-grown, adult Germans. They will tell their children of the glorious days when Germany was a respected nation. Certain conditions of unrest may produce another Hitler out of the ashes of that hate.
This cannot be stamped out by mere disarmament or setting the stage for democratic processes. Putting out that fire of nationalism which will burn in Nazi hearts will require a sensible, tolerant campaign of selling the United Nations to the Germans. It will require unceasing vigilance of the revolutionary forces and extensive fostering and development of the conservative elements of post-war Germany.
Weeding Nazi concepts from German minds will be a big job. Yet, it must be done, and only by the application of internationalism can it be done. Isolation of the United States must be discarded in a world where everything depends on whether the United Nations can formulate and establish a peace that won't blow up in their faces.
Kansas Needs Reform In School System; Legislature Should Act
Perhaps it is the result of pressure on the part of growing parent groups throughout the country; perhaps because of the teacher shortage which has given smug constituents a jolt; or, perhaps, as one sociologist-philosopher suggested, "The most sweeping reforms in every field of life occur during the sweeping destruction of war." At any rate, someone — something has provoked a mass of legislation or proposed legislation for the reform of the public school system throughout the country.
Just Wondering
If the sailors picked up their Green hall steps technique from the laws. Or do sailors need any instruction in that sort of thing?
--lic school system throughout the country.
---
It is about time. After years of wasting money and hiring poorly-educated teachers for each of her rural, one-room schools, Illinois is doing away with her "rotten borough" system of schools. Now, Kansas is attempting to meet her most crying need for reform—the unequal distribution of funds among the high schools of the state.
The Senate has recommended for passage a bill which will make the Barnes Law, now operating in 40 counties, the uniform state law. In Barnes county, regardless of the difference in evaluation of certain parts of the county, the funds are distributed on the basis of student population with the provision that a minimum of not less than $1,200 a teacher and $90 a student be provided for each school year. It is this last provision which is expressly stated in the bill. Only high schools in cities of more than 20,000 population were excluded.
Poorer high school districts would be aided by two state sales tax allotments annually, increased payments going to high school districts unable to obtain a minimum of $1,200 a teacher and $90 a pupil.
This bill, if it becomes a law, can mean that there will be an improvement in teacher tenure in the smaller high schools. It can mean that better qualified teachers can "afford" to accept positions in smaller high schools. It can mean that the home economics teacher will no longer be "drafted" to teach English or music. It can mean that the libraries, so long neglected for athletics and other "firsts," will be brought up to date. This, with the recent stipulation that librarians must have training, should do much to remedy a neglect which has been particularly outstanding in the smaller high schools.
If such a law can remedy all these defects in the state's high school educational system, there should be no doubt as to its value.—P.J.

They Are Freezing Frozen Foods
Once again across the nation
Once again across the nation
They have placed us on a ration—
They are freezing frozen foods and things in cans.
They are doing it again,
These bureaucratic men—
They are freezing frozen foods and things in cans.
They are halting frenzied buying
While a multitude is crying:
"Do not freeze our frozen foods and things in cans!"
But, alas, it has no hearers.
They are doing it with mirrors—
They are freezing frozen foods and things in cans.
Oh, it's frozen foods they're banning.
And to stop the canner canning—
They are freezing frozen foods and things in cans.
No, it's not that frozen fodder
That is giving me the bother—
Though they're freezing frozen foods and things in cans
Let them freeze the corn and pea,
Succotash and broccoli—
You can have my cauliflower and my meat.
Let them freeze them all, by jiminy!
I can do without the hominy.
I am going into service—where they eat!
Use Fifteen a Week...
Students Show Desire To Support Blood Bank
The fact that already about three times as many students have reported for blood tests and contributions to the blood bank as can be taken care of each week indicates the willingness of University students to cooperate in this drive. Members of the Coed Volunteer Corps have contacted the organized houses who are, if possible, to send $ ^{*} $
who are, if possible, to send five people a day to the hospital for tests.
Only fifteen donors will be used each week. If their tests are satisfactory the donors will give one pint of blood. The human body can completely replace this amount within about two days. The average person has about four quarts of blood and an much as a quart and a half can be extracted at a time with out serious effects.
The blood bank, one of medicine's new war weapons, has given the University the opportunity of contributing unselfishly to the war effort. The spirit in which that contribution is being made deserves commendation.
Until recently it was thought necessary to transfer the blood directly from the donor to the patient. When the process of treating the plasma was discovered it became possible to type and store the blood plasma until it could be shipped to civilian areas or to battle fronts where it is needed.

Landon Insists That Liberal Arts Not Be Sacrificed
Topeka, — (INS)— America's liberal arts colleges must be preserved and kept intact no matter how much this country may have to submerge other interests to make an all-out war attack, Alf M. Landon, former Republican presidential nominee, said today.
Landon, in a founder's day address at Washburn University said the liberal arts colleges will be called upon to do important work. when peace comes.
"As a result of war conditions," he said, "the liberal arts college is facing the crisis of its existence, but it will be a great disaster in the life of the world if it should be permanently eliminated."

Rumors Report Finland Might Cease Fighting
London, Feb. 4 (INS) — New rumors that Finland might soon drop out of the war and cease fighting against the Soviets reached London today in dispatches from Turkey.
Reuter's news agency carried at item from Ankara supposedly originating in Berlin which reported that the Finnish Minister to Germany had handed a note to Reich officials threatening that Finland would seek a peace agreement unless more food is forthcoming.
"If Germany refuses to increase immediately the urgently needed food supplies," the note reportedly stated, "Finland will be obliged to consider the possibilities of a separate peace."
The London Evening Standard on Monday declared that it had been confirmed that Field Marshal Karl Mannerheim of Finland had sent a note to Pope Pius XII in November asking the assistance of the Pontiff in obtaining a peace agreement between Russia and Finland.
Under the proposed agreement, it was said, Finland sought to retain the frontiers existing prior to the 1940 Russo-Finnish War which Berlin now claims was a fake to mislead Germany through the poor showing of the Russian army in that campaign.

Surveys Seek Water Supply at Montezuma
The Ground-Water division of the State and Federal Geological Surveys has sent Bruce Latta, Geologist, to Gray county, to direct test-drilling in an effort to develop a new well-water supply for the town of Montezuma.
Since 1939 the State Geological Survey has maintained an observation well between the two existing city wells of Montezuma. The study is being made in response to a request from the Montezuma city officials. Since 1938, studies of water supply have been made for the cities of Wichita, Winfield, Reading, Sterling, Langley, Dodge City, and in Lansing at the State Penitentiary.
Six Million Women To War Work

The senate state affairs committee held the first public hearing on the measure last night. One labor leader appearing before the committee told members "You are fooling around with a keg of dynamite, and you had better find out what is in it before you set it off."
The house elections committee recommended for passage the McKenzie bill already passed by the senate to permit party organizations to fill vacancies by appointment on primary election tickets.

Avenging Russian armies closed in on the Caucasian gateway-city of Rostov tonight, capturing five more important towns and railway centers and closing a trap on an estimated 200,000 Nazis in the western Caucasus.
Unable to fall back on Rostov, this army now finds itself with its back to the sea of Azov, with the narrow and inhospital Kerch straits leading to the Crimea as the only route of escape left open.
It was announced officially also that the Russians had captured a number of strong points south of the big oil refining center at the mouth of the Don river.

Eleven Women Donate to Blood Bank
University Students May Give Blood For Civilian Transfusions
If a great fire of Boston-proportions or a shattering explosion in a defense plant would disrupt the peaceful Kansas City area this weekend, the victims and injured persons would be rushed to Bell Memorial hospital for treatment and blood transfusions. And 11 pints of the blood the doctors would use to put new life into the suffering patients would have come from the 11 University coeds who donated their blood last Wednesday in Watkins Memorial hospital.
Eleven large hospitals are getting their own blood banks to use in civilian emergencies, and to that end Bell Memorial hospital in Kansas City has asked University students to donate one pint of their blood. Only 100 pints are needed from University students for civilian use, but steps are being taken by Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the Wattkins Memorial hospital, to get the Red Cross mobile blood-collecting unit to come to the campus within the next two months. The blood collected then will be used for military transfusions.
Denor Must Take Wassermann
Blood will be taken every Wednesday afternoon at Watkins Memorial hospital by Dr. C. J. Weber and Mrs. Pauline McPheeters, R.N. of the Bell Memorial hospital. Previous to giving the pint of blood, the donors must be given a Wassermann test to determine the purity of the blood. For this test a few ounces of blood are taken from a vein in the arm and studied under the microscope for the presence of aggregates of blood cells, which denote a positive test.
Virginia Detlor and Phyllis Boyle are the laboratory technicians
If the student has passed the Wassermann test, he may then give his blood to the bank. Last Wednesday only 11 girls were accommodated, but Dr. Weber said that next week the process would be speeded up because of increased efficiency on the part of those taking the blood. Plasma Kept For Six Months
The process for giving blood is simple. The donor is stretched out on a bed with one arm over his head and the other at his side. The arm extended above his head has a rubber blood pressure on it. After a short time that arm is brought down and the doctor draws out the blood from a vein in the bend of the elbow into a glass jar which has an anticoagulin in the bottom. When a pint of blood has been drawn from the vein, the process ends and the donor drinks orange juice and rests for a few moments. The time taken for the drawing of the blood and the rest period never exceeds 20 minutes.
The blood is taken to the Kansas City hospital where it is kept whole for five days and then the cells are separated and the plasma stored for six months. Whole blood will not keep for more than five days. Dr. Weber explained, but plasma lasts indefinitely. The future transfusions will be made from the plasma.
The blood will be typed, not to aid in transfusions because matching is not necessary with plasma, but to gather a list of persons who are group 4 or group zero, as the international type is commonly known,
who would sign up as prospective donors for emergencies and could be called on without making cross-matching necessary. In this way the blood could be taken from the donor and given to recipient in 20 minutes, often saving lives. Anyone giving their blood in Watkins Memorial hospital may find out the type of their blood by inquiring there about a week after the donation. Eleven Women Give Blood
Blood should not be given by the same person more than four times a year, Dr. Weber said, and not oftener than every three months. The loss of one-third of one's blood at a time will result in shock, and from one-half to two-thirds is fatal.
For last Wednesday's blood collection the hospital called 10 women's and 10 men's organized houses for donors. The 11 women who were taken last Wednesday were from these houses, and include; Kathleen Schmidt, business junior; Efie Lou Kelly, College freshman; Justine Peterson, fine arts junior; Mimi Nettles, College freshman; Mary Margaret Reynolds, College sophomore; Margaret Kreider, College sophomore; Mary Taylor, College junior; Marilyn Sweeney, fine arts freshman; Ruth Anna Bovaird, College junior; Alice Louise Brown, College sophomore, and Margaret Isabelle Benson, College senior.
Several of the women were interviewed after giving their blood and all expressed their surprise at the lack of pain and dizziness which accompanied the process.
Nurses Urgently Needed For War, McNutt Says
During the next year, one of America's most urgent needs will be for nurses. Paul V. McNutt, Mampower director, pointed out the other day that 65,000 young women must enter nursing schools between June 30, 1943, and July 1, 1944, "if even minimum civilian and military needs of the nation are to be met." This number exceeds the 1942-43 group by 10,000. Where state nursing laws permit, schools are being urged to reduce the usual period of training from three years to 30 months, or less.
Wisconsin senators and assemblymen will take over University of Wisconsin fraternity houses to combat the war housing shortage.

Students Used As Guinea Pigs Show Value of Movies
University students are used as guinea pigs for several Hollywood productions. When film companies have a show on their hands and are not sure what kind of a reception it will get, they often try it out in a small college city before releasing it in the large cities. Experience has taught the movie men that the taste in a city such as Lawrence is unfailingly good; that is, the shows which go over here are almost a cinch to draw big crowds throughout the country. there is a larger percentage of show go
Students at the University of Kansas buy approximately 5,000 theater tickets per week. This represents an average of more than a ticket a week for every student enrolled.
According to theater managers, a college campus offers an unlimited field for motion picture promotion, and movie men go all-out to establish good will and attract student patronage. In a city the size of Lawrence, the student attendance represents approximately 50 per cent of the total theater business.
Campus Offers Good Field
Students are a little more sophisticated than the average citizen, and it is usually very difficult to put anything over on them by use of the pre-show propaganda. This is one reason for the use of a college city as a test tube for movie drawing power, but another reason is the fact that theater managers know that
there is a larger percentage of show goers among students than can be found in any other class of people. Shows Tie In With Campus
Opportunities for movie production are multiplied tremendously on a college campus. The big thing about this kind of promotion is the immense number of campus activities which can be tied up with a current show. An excellent example of this in Lawrence was the show, "One Foot in Heaven," which was obtained to play here at the same time as a minister's conference on the campus had Norman Vincent Peale in town as principal speaker. This same Dr. Peale had been technical adviser for the production of the show.
The local theater management says that students prefer action pictures, with light musicals and comedies running a close second.

No Gas Ration Effects In Increasing Violations
The percentage of traffic violations on the Hill has increased, in spite of gasoline and tire rationing.
BY GERALD DICK
Many Red Tickets Still Given
This statement was made by A. D. Schick, traffic officer at the University, in an interview yesterday. Mr. Schick is the fellow you see every day, striding across the campus in his trim uniform and heavy sheepskin $ ^{\circ} $
The number of automobiles using parking spaces at the University has decreased fully 50 per cent of the normal number in pre-war days, Mr. Schick estimated. Although the number of violations has been cut considerably, it has not decreased in proportion to the number of cars on the Hill, he said. Consequently, he is handing out those little red tickets almost as liberally as ever..
Most of the traffic violations on Mount Oread are parking violations, the officers pointed out, "But we still have a few persons who insist on speeding in spite of gasoline rationing," he remarked.
coat. Maybe you recognize him as the fellow who always flings you a cheery greeting when you meet him on the campus. Or maybe you know him merely as the "cop" who is always seen placing those little red tickets on the wind-shields of careless violators of Hill traffic regulations.
Mr. Schick enumerated several reasons for the increased percentage of violations. The main reason, he stated, is the failure of the student court to act upon male traffic violators. Another reason which he gave was that parking space is limited because of the closing of many of the parking lots where new buildings are being built. Many Out-of-Town Violators
Many of the violators this year have been war industry trainees
who are not acquainted with the regulations here, and drivers of out-of-state cars who are apparently of the opinion that the traffic regulations here don't apply to them, the policeman declared. "Violations of this kind may be due in a large part to a lack of sufficient publicity concerning traffic regulations," he said.
Students Must Pay Fines
The genial officer criticized what he described as the "no care" attitude of many persons concerning parking regulations. "These persons don't seem to realize that fines for traffic violations have to be paid before the student can get his transcript from the University."
Mr. Schick advised that students eligible for parking permits who haven't yet applied for them should apply immediately at Frank Strong hall, room 1.
Congestion After Hoch Events
One of the biggest traffic problems on the Hill at present is the congestion which results after public events held at Hoch auditorium from a lack of sufficient parking space close to the auditorium, he pointed out. "The new road which is to be constructed west of the new mineral resources building will help greatly to relieve this congestion, because it will give persons living south of the Hill ready excess to the auditorium from the south." he said. At present, persons living south of the Hill are forced to drive many (continued to page eight)

Evans Sparks KU to 44-20 Win.
Jayhawk Five Finds Basket Late in Game
BY DON KEOWN
A ragged Kansas Jayhawk quintet finally got underway in the second half to bury a hapless Iowa State five 44-20 in Hoch auditorium last night.
Playing without star forward Charlie Black, the Kansans couldn't find the basket in the first period, relying on free throws to lead 16 to 10 at the half. Ray Evans and sophomore Otto Schnellbacher, however, began connecting in the second half, and, with three Cyclones benched on fouls, Phog Allen's men pulled away to a safe lead early in the period.
Buescher's Play Sparkles
Evans, playing his best home game of the year, shared game honors with quarterback John Buescher, who turned in an outstanding floor game for the winners. Ray Wehde, Cyclone sophomore pivot man, took scoring honors for the cold visiting five with six points. Evans and Schnellbacher racked up 16 and 15 respectively for the Jayhawkers.
Coach Allen used three men in an attempt to fill in for the badly-needed Black, Max Kissell, Hoyt Baker, and little Sparky McSpadden all seeing action at the forward position. McSpadden played most of the game.
Goal After 7 Minutes
Schnellbacher, Fvans and Armand Dixon opened the second half with a barrage of field goals to send Kansas into a 26 to 14 lead. Schnell-
More than seven minutes of the first period had gone by before Cyclone Ray Wehde sank the first field goal of the game on a pivot shot and put his team ahead 6 to 4. The Kansans trailed throughout most of the remainder of the first period, but came from behind with a rally in the last six minutes that saw Evans and Buescher repeatedly elude their guards.
Missouri 44; Kansas State 30.
bacher then connected twice to put the game on ice, as a desperate Cyclone five repeatedly nullified scoring opportunities with poor ball handling.
Cyclones Control Rebounds
Throughout the game, the Jay-hawks had difficulty in controlling the rebounds as Iowa State's Wehde twins outjumped Allen's men. But Cyclone tip-in shots were wild, and the visitors failed to take advantage of their superior rebounding.
The game was slow, particularly in the first half, with both teams passing wild. The two quintets drew their defenses in to clog the scoring lanes and keep enemy scoring aces well in hand during the first half. Superior Jayhawk speed counted in the second half with Kansas's fast break repeatedly catching the Cyclones off guard.
A crowd of 2,096 fans watched the game.

He Runs For Nothing
Roger Whitworth works out on the indoor track regularly. Last spring Whitworth jogged around Memorial oval hundreds of times. When in top condition he can run 440 yards in less than 50 seconds, faster than any other Kansas sprinter. The slender, clean-looking runner would like to compete in the Big Six indoor and outdoor track meets at Kansas City this year.
But Jim Crow bars the way. Before transferring to Kansas, Whitworth ran on the varsity at Marquette. A change in latitude deems him unfit for competition in the Big Six, primarily because Missouri and Oklahoma haven't learned the lessons of the Civil War and strongly uphold the conference no-Negro athletic rule.
Earmuffs for Kansas
Henry Iba, whose Aggies lost 40-38 to Creighton last night, dousing A-M's last chance for a Missouri title gets another crack at Phog's horrible toughs at Stillwater Feb. 17.
Kansas, victoryless at Stillwater since 1936, has its best chance since that time. But irate Iba said "they better have their cars peeled when we get them at home" after Kansas won here 36-29.
Iba complained officials favored Kansas in Hoch games and that Jayhawks shoved Aggies on offense. Although letters have been exchanged between the two coaches and differences seem settled, Kansas can still expect to get its "ears peeled back." The tall Aggies play a rough brand of ball (16 fouls against Creighton) and their experience here still rankles Iba.

A Good-Bye Celebration
Farewell Party For Men Leaving For Military Duty
University students who will soon leave for military service were given a farewell party last night in an Abraham Lincoln atmosphere.
More than five hundred students turned out to dance to Bachmann and Pope's bearded band in a Union Building rusticly
decorated with pine boughs and huge old wagon wheels. Appetites were taken care of by a stand peddling hot dogs and apples.
KFKU broadcast by remote control from the Union Building the program for the University service-bound men. Prof. Allen Crafton of the speech department, sang "Over There" and then gave a short speech in which he emphasized the need of a strong upper lip.
Harlan Cope, impersonating Lincoln, took the solo part in the Modern Choir's number, "Abraham," and the Ama Mater" was sung. A chorus of Navy men sang "Anchors Aweigh" and Lt. A. H. Buhl conducted an interview of several sailors.
The roving reporters interviewed Newell Jenkins and Dick Royer, and Chancellor Malott closed the broadcast with a goodbye to the service men.
Two University professors were elected to engineering society offices at conventions held in Topeka this weekend.
Clean-shaven Tom Manion proved to be a better whittler than a beardgrower, and edged out bearded Charles Taylor in the whitting contest. Judges Madame Vilishlowsky and Jenongahanna Oberdowski pronounced Manion's head of Lincoln a masterpiece.
Prof. George W. Bradshaw, of the department of civil engineering, was elected president of the Kansas division of the American Society of Civil Engineers.
Prof. W. C. McNown, also in the civil engineering department, who this week retired as president of the committee of the Kansas Engineering Society, was elected chairman of the committee on engineering employment. This committee's work deals mainly with the problems of collective bargaining for engineers. Dr. V. P. Hessler, of the department of electrical engineering here is also a member of the committee.

Sixteen Seniors In ROTC Are Army Inductees
Sixteen University seniors enrolled in advanced ROTC were inducted into the army yesterday at Ft. Leavenworth. The men volunteered for induction so they may be transferred to the enlisted reserve corps.
Upon completion of the present semester the men will attend officer's candidate school, holding the rank of corporal when they enter and being promoted to 2nd lieutenants when they complete the training.
The men will return to the campus on inactive duty status without pay or uniform. Since the University was one of the several schools named to participate in the Army Specialized Training Program, these men may go into active duty immediately so they may continue their studies in specialized fields.
Following are their names and their places of registration: Charles Bliss, Oskaloosa; Frederick Bohannon, Kansas City, Mo.; James C. Draper, Jr., Topeka; William H. Duke, Lawrence; Fred H. Gades, Topeka; George L. Johnson, Lawrence; James W. Kelly, Stafford; Harwood G. Klosky, Lawrence; Stanton Kreider, Lawrence; Burt G. Larson, Lawrence; Lewis F.

The purpose of the burea to prepare speeches upon specific pertinent and interesting information to the public, he said. These students will present speeches before civic clubs, churches, high school assemblies, and other groups in cities and towns within a 100-mile radius of Lawrence.
Speakers' Bureau Helps Public
Professor Buehler emphasized that the aim of the speeches will not be to promote a specific cause or to take sides on highly controversial issues, but to present in a condensed form facts and information on subjects related to the war effort.
"We believe that college students could render a great service to their country by bringing to its people information which will help the public to have more definite opinions and make wise decisions on matters of national policy and world organization when they face us at a later date," Professor Buehler said. "The first duty of the Speakers Bureau is to help the public to the tools for thought and reflection."
Professor Buehler is the general director of a temporary guidance committee which has been set up

Japanese-American Students Are Welcome at Nebraska U.
The Kansas Board of Regents apparently still refuses to allow Japanese-American students to attend the University. The members of the board have given no logical reasons; they simply have refused to consider it. If they looked at the case of neighboring Nebraska University, which has admitted 59 Japanese-American students, and considered the letter sent to Fred Harris, chairman of the Board of Regents, by C. W. Rosenlof, registrar at N. U., their attitude should take on another complexion.
During the first semester, Nebraska admitted 59 Japanese-American students who transferred from the West Coast states. "These young people," wrote Mr. Rosenlof, who is in a position to know, "are proving themselves to be in every sense of the word excellent students and citizens. We have not had a single occasion to regret our action in admitting them. They have been accepted by our students 100 per cent. They have become a part of the University family, but are conscious of their privileges and exercise every care not to give offense or to arouse suspicion. The consequence is that the students regularly enrolled and these Japanese-American students are getting along with each other very splendidly."
Certainly the acceptance of the Japanese-American students by the student body would constitute no problem, for a majority of students seems to believe that they should be admitted to the University. Why do they believe it? Because, in the first place, they realize that the Japanese-American students are American citizens and as such are entitled to the benefits of our educational system. In the second place the search for knowledge is an international bond that does not recognize race nor creed. A student instinctively reaches out a hand to another student, the world over. And third, the enlightened Japanese-American student, having lived the American way of life, or having sought it of his own free will, is not likely to return to the superstitious beliefs of ancestral worship. The typical Japanese-American student is as interested in the democratic way as any other American, and primarily, he is interested in the educational system that our democracy offers. Disloyalty to the United States has no place in the discussion, because the conditions under which the students would be allowed to enter the University would not permit pro-Nipponese leanings. The students admitted here, as at Nebraska University, should have to submit letters from University faculty, local residents, give evidence of their loyalty to the United States, be in the upper percentile of their classes, and have sufficient funds to carry them through a year at the University. The students thus admitted would realize that their stay at the University depended upon their good conduct and therefore, would be completely open and above board in their activities. The Japanese - American students would try their best to please and the American students would reciprocate. There would be no financial, scholarship, or patriotic worries heaped upon the administration with the admission of these students. What objection does the Board of Regents have?

Too Many Geographical Barriers Block Allied Reconquest of Burma
"Why don't the Allies send more aid to China, so that the embattled Chinese can break the Japanese strangle-hold on the life-giving Burma road?" is a question that occasionally pops into the head of the casual, armchair war follower. The answer is, simply, that there are involved too many natural elements which make any such plan impractical.
The principal desire of the Chinese is for the Allies to help them promote a giant pincer squeeze on the Japanese in Burma, pushing from India and China. The Chinese have promised to supply half of the 200,000 men needed to begin such a campaign to open the Burma road.
The proposal of the Allies helping China retake Burma would not be militarily strategic because Burma is a huge, almost completely roadless land, heavily garrisoned by the Japanese and populated by natives who are openly hostile to the Chinese, British, and Indians. Burma could not be retaken, even with immense Chinese and Allied forces, in a single skirmish.
In another four months, Burma will be in the middle of its rainy season. Burma will become blanketed with mud, making it impossible to carry on any major military campaign. The time remaining is insufficient for the Allies to begin a flow of troops and equipment to aid the Chinese in their campaign, even were the venture to be profitable to the Allies.
Consequently, the probable Allied offensive in China will be somewhat limited air action. This, of course, cannot defeat the Japanese, nor drive them out of Burma.
China's greatest enemy in the reconquest of her desperately needed Burma road is, oddly enough, her geography—D.S.

Rock Chalk Talk By JIMMY GUNN

The Prince Charming in Luli: After hours of strenuous sales talk, "Toto" Lulli (newest super salesman at the Royal Shoe shop) finally sold Maureen Meschke, Gamma Phi, a pair of slippers to wear to the Gamma Phi formal that night. Maureen was well on her way—with the shoes—when Toto realized he had given her, not mates, but a gold slipper and a silver one. Lulli made a quick trip to the Gamma Phi house, several dashes up and down Massachusetts, thrashed through women's dress departments, and looked under 17 hair dryers before he finally caught up with his customer in Wiedemann's.

Found: death's sting or a reasonable facsimile: Max Webster went to the hospital with an acute case of laryngitis. Thirty minutes later he staggered from the clinic room. "My God!", he croused to John Anderson, room mate, "I'm ruined. The doc says I'm not supposed to talk for 48 hours. Why, I'd rather be dead." Anderson immediately contracted the same ailment, and so, although he felt for his roommate, he could not be audibly sympathetic. The boys domain in the ATO house is known as the Room of Whispers.

Shawnee Mission for Indians Founded By White Man
By Virginia Gunsolly
The century old buildings of the Methodist mission are now operated by the state. Included among them now is a museum which is open to the public. Some of the rooms of the mission proper have been re-tored with period furniture and this is also open to the public. In the Indian cemetery on the area surrounding the mission are buried Johnson and his family.
The Methodist mission was originally established in Wyandotte county, but it is now located at 52nd and Mission Road in Kansas City, Kan. Indian students lived at the missions where they received elementary schooling, religious instruction, and training in agriculture and domestic arts. The enrollment was considered to be quite good in that era. At no time, however, did the enrollment in any of these missions exceed 76. In the latter years of the mission's active service as a school, it was attended mainly by Indian orphans.
One of the most famous of all Indian missions is the Methodist mission, one of the Shawnee Missions, in Kansas City, Ks.
About a century ago, a white man named Thomas Johnson, braved the wilds of the Middle West and established this mission and began schooling the Indians. Besides this Methodist mission two others were located in this area, the Baptist and the Friends missions. Three large buildings mark the most famous of these three and only monuments Of distinct historical importance to Kansas is the fact that the first printing press in the stat was set up in the mission in 1908 Kansas.
Kansas has been endowed with numerous sites of historical and geographical importance. These should not be overlooked when the writer and artist elaborate on their waving corn fields, exquisite sunsets, drab plains, and other geographical features.

Governor Stassen became chairman of the governor's conference in 1940. Also, he was chosen "Outstanding Man" by the National Junior Chamber of Commerce in the same year. The following year, he won the World Christian Endeavor award for "patriotic leadership."

Besides being a mental and political prodigy, Governor Stassen early established a reputation as a military leader. As a university sophomore, he was chosen the outstanding military student in the ROTC. The following year, he was named most efficient of 1700 cadets from eight states of the Seventh Corps area. When a senior, he was a cadet lieutenant colonel.
Other military distinctions won by Governor Stassen are three national intercollegiate championships as a member of Minnesota's rifle team,
championship of the War department match in 1925, and co-championship of the English-speaking nations at the De-War International Rifle match in the same year. In the War Department match, Governor Stassen scored 735 points out of a possible 800.

Chicago Sun Acclaims Seba Eldridge's Book
**
"An entirely readable and usable book with a high degree of economy in production—a feat especially commendable in wartime" is how the Chicago Sun Book Week describes the new book written by Seba Eldridge, acting chairman of the University's sociology department, and his associates, and published by the University of Kansas Press.
The book titled "Development of Collective Enterprise" presents historical studies of various forms of collective enterprise by 30 specialists representing 16 institutions and agencies.
According to the review in the Chicago Sun Book Week: "Never before has so much definite information in this field been made available in a single volume. No student or general reader need feel the lack hereafter of adequate and authoritative factual knowledge of any phase of this subject."
In the last one hundred pages of the five hundred page book, Mr. Eldridge draws together the findings of his associates and considering especially their emphasis on the basic factors in the origin and growth of collective enterprises, presents general conclusions. He finds that previous theories of the motivation of collective enterprises are not borne out by the facts, so far as the United States is concerned. He concludes that "consumers and
citizens are slowly building a collective economy in this country, and one—as their own influence attests—that is essentially democratic in its foundations."

Students Won't Believe 'Death of Hitler' Theory
"Hitler may be dead," stated the former Russian ambassador speaking on the March of Time program Thursday night.
Pointing to the failure of the fuchrher to deliver his own address on the anniversary of his rise to power, the former ambassador suggested that the three-day period of mourning in Germany might be for a deeper tragedy than the loss of Stalin's grad. I think there are two possible results: that the Government
On the University campus the concensus appears to be extreme skepticism of the report. In answer to the questions, "Do you believe the report could be true?" and "If it were true, what would be the effect on Germany and the allied war effort?" campus opinion was summarized in the following statements:
Mary Hiliff, college senior; "I don't believe the report, but I think the Nazi regime is on the skids anyway, and the death of Hitler would speed it up."
Dean Sims, college junior: "I put little faith in the possibility of Hitler's death. If he were dead, however, I think disunity in Germany would result, and Allied resistance would be stiffened if they knew about it."
Dr. H. B. Chubb of the political science department: "I think it is hardly possible that Hitler is dead. However, I think there would be little immediate change in the internal regime of Germany because social and political conditions bring an ideal to the fore, and no one man may be said to be responsible. Hitley, therefore, is merely the personification of an ideal, and his death now would not result in any immediate change."
Cari Unrub, engineering senior:
"I usually take such reports with a grain of salt. If the report were true. I believe it would have a demoralizing effect on Germany."
Ann Starr, sophomore pre-medic:
"I don't believe the report, but if it were true, I think it would be too bad, because I think Hitler should live to be stripped of his power and glory in the sight of the German people. His death at this point would leave him a hero and a martyr in the eyes of his people."
Prof. Marston McCluggage of the sociology department: "I would view such reports with skepticism as they are likely to be the result of wishful thinking. If Hitler were dead,
I think there are two possible results; that the German army elicite would take over and attempt a negotiated peace, or that more moderate persons would try to establish a more liberal government."
Ise Appointed To Minimum Wage Rate Committee
Professor Ise was named as one of the 12 public members of the committee which is composed of an equal number of representatives of employees and employers in the industry. The appointment was made by L. Metcalfe Walling, national administrator of the wage-hour division.
Prof. John Ise, chairman of the economist department at the University, has been appointed recently to a national committee to establish a minimum wage rate in the combined metal, plastics, machinery, instrument and allied industries, Walter W. King, regional director of the wage-hour and public contracts divisions of the U.S. department of labor reported today.
The function of the committee is to determine whether economic, competitive and employment conditions in the industries warrant the establishment of a minimum wage rate of 40 cents per hour under the fair labor standards act. The general minimum under the act is 30 cents per hour.
Mr. King said that the committee will hold its first meeting in New York City, Feb. 16. He pointed out that appointment of the committee was a step toward "streamlining the division's wage-order procedure." Ordinarily, studies of these complex industries, would require appointment of 15 or 20 such committees. The industries employ about 7,500,-000 workers.

Tice Saves Life
Heals in Jungle
Dr. Raymond Tice, medicine '38 may be the American doctor mentioned in a Kansas City news broadcast, Jan. 9, for having saved a soldier's life by transfusing his own blood. Mrs. Tice; College freshman, he had no verification of the story from her husband, but the description fits him, she said.
The news cast stated that Dr. Raymond Tile, an American doctor in New Gulfen, while on detail service in the jungle amputated an arm of a young boy afflicted with gangrene. Seeing that the boy needed a blood transfusion, the doctor notified by the tags that their blood was of the same type, and proceeded to transfuse his blood to the boy.
On hearing the news, Mrs. Tice wrote to her husband to ask if he were, the doctor referred to. No reply has been received from him.

Gov. Stassen Will Speak At Convocation
"Where Are We Going?" is the subject chosen by Gov. Harold E. Stassen of Minnesota for his talk at an all-University convocation at 11:30 tomorrow morning in Hoch auditorium.
At the 1940 Republican National Convention, Governor Stassen was temporary chairman and keynoter, and he led the campaign which succeeded in nominating Wendell Willkie for the presidential candidate. A year previous, he spoke at the Gridiron club in Washington, and was chosen "Outstanding Young Man" by the National Junior Chamber of Commerce.
Currently the youngest governor in the United States, at the age of 35. Gov. Stassen is now awaiting call into active service with the navy. He is a lieutenant commander in the Naval Reserve.
Governor Stassen was selected for the International Youth's Distinguished Service citation by the International Society of Christian Endeavor and the World's Christian Endeavor Union in 1941. During the period of 1940-41, he was chairman of the National Governors' conference and Council of State Governments.
Receiving his law degree at the age of 22, Governor Stassen practiced law for a year, after which he was elected county attorney of Dakota county, in which position he continued from 1930 to 1938. During the years of 1935-36, he was president of Minnesota's County Attorney's Association, and the next two years he was president of Minnesota's Young Republican league. A Reform Governor
As governor, he has established several reforms, diminished the state debt, and instituted civil service. He was an outstanding student at Minnesota University, especially in military science. He won many championships and set marksmanship records.
Governor Stassen is a member of Scabbard and Blade, Delta Sigma Rho, Gamma Eta Gamma, and Grey Friars. He is also a Mason.

Films May Lose Flynn To War Job
Hollywood, Feb. 8 (INS) — Resting from the ordeal of a four-week trial which resulted in his exoneration of morals charges involving two teen-age girls, film star Errol Flynn today indicated he might quit the movies in favor of a job outside the film industry—possibly war work.
The dashing Tasmanian-born actor, who rose to stardom and a $5,000 weekly pay check, said he would withhold announcement of his future plans for "two or three days."
Flynn remained secluded in his mountain-side home, where he has been since a jury of nine housewives and three men acquitted him of the charges of Betty Hansen and Peggy Larue Satterlee, both 17.
Senate Approves Salary Increase
Meanwhile the furor over charges of widespread and flagrant violations of liquor and gambling laws died down somewhat in the legislature with no immediate indication of an investigation being ordered.
Topeka—(INS)—Indications today were that state school faculties would come under a salary increase bill approved by the senate ways and means committee. The body approved salary increases for employees of state penal institutions up to 12 and six tenths per cent with the total appropriation amounting to $1,727,328.
Senator William A. Kahrs, Wichita, said that undoubtedly something should be done about the charges, but as far as could be learned today no organized move was under wav.
Army Air Corps Called Feb. 20-28
Beaten and half-starved, overpowered by better fighters than themselves and far less certain of their superiority than they were at Pearl Harbor, the Japanese scurried off of Guadalcanal today and another great victory was recorded for American arms.
US Wins Battle Of Guadalcanal; Jap Army Flees
This second major defeat of Japanese land forces, following by only a few weeks General Douglas McArthur's triumph on the island of New Guinea, bids fair to mark a turning point in the Pacific war. Soviet Troops Take Kursk
"All organized resistance has ceased and the deathless page in history that the United States marines began to write with their initial landing in the Solomons last August has been finished with a flourish."
"The truth of the matter," he said, "is that the enemy has been defeated on Guadalcanal." History Is Finished
A communique from the Japanese high command claiming "transfer" of these forces "now that their mission has been accomplished," was quickly exploded by Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox.
Meantime Soviet troops swarmed into Kursk, one of the key points (continued to page eight)

Encores Climax Orchestra Concert
By MATT HEUERTZ
A surprisingly small audience turned out last night to enjoy a two-hour concert in Hoch auditorium by the Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Karl Krueger.
Rachmaninoff's "Symphony No. 2, in E-Minor," the second number on the program, was played in four movements and reached a lively and vigorous climax in the last movement, "allegro vivace." Mr. Krueger was stirred from his usual calmness and restraint while conducting the four movements. Program Suits Students
Interest in the concert gradually grew from opening number, the not-too-well-known overture to the opera "Raymond" by Ambrose Thomas, until the climax was reached with playing
of the first encore, the popular and softly moving overture to "Tannhauser" by Wagner.
in the audience. DeBussy's "La Mer," a tone poem of the sea was familiar to most of those present and was well received. The three pieces of the composition are very melodic, with the second, "Jeux de vagues" (Play of the Waves), having a distinctive murmurring quality which was brought out by the harpist. The woodwinds and brasses were dominant through the third piece, "Dialogue du vent et de la mer" (Dialogue of the Wind and the Sea.)

Reservists Have Choice Of Refund or Credits
Advice has been received from the War Department by Dr. L. C. Woodruff, co-ordinator of student military information here, that all Army Aviation Cadet Enlisted Reservists under deferred status, will be ordered to active duty with effective dates commencing Feb. 20. It is anticipated that all Aviation Cadet Enlisted Reservists will be ordered to active duty not
Positions Open On K-Book Staff
Applications for editor, business manager, and other staff positions on the "K"-Book for next year should be submitted by junior and sophomores to the business office by February 15, Vincent P. Harris of the business office announced today. Applicants selected for editor and business manager will be announced approximately March 1.
Selection will be made by the committees from letters submitted by applicants stating their previous experience on newspapers, magazines, and other publications in the University or in high school. They should also include in the letter the school that they are in and their major. Others wishing staff positions on the 1943 "K"-Book should apply to the business office in a similar letter.
The examining committee will consist of Mr. Harris, chairman; Harry OKane, YMCA executive secretary; Mrs. Rachel G. VanderWerf, YWCA executive secretary; John Conard, editor of the "K"-Book this year; Wallace Kunkel, business manager of the "K"-Book this year; and one member of the Men's Student Council.
Committee to Plan For Sorority Sing Scheduled In March
Plans for the annual inter-sorority sing to be March 21 will be made tomorrow night by a committee with Merrill Jones as chairman.
A representative from each organized house will attend the meeting at 8 p.m. in the Kansas room in the Memorial Union building. Terms of competition and rules for the sing will be decided upon.
Glenn Warner, College freshman, has been appointed chairman of the Student Union Activities entertainment bureau and will be in charge of the sorority and fraternity sings this spring.
WEATHER
Much colder with light rain changing to snow northwest portion late this afternoon and entire state tonight.
According to the dispatch from the War Department they will be ordered to active duty from their homes although it will be permissible for them to leave from their respective colleges. It is hoped, the communique states, that each student will receive his orders several days in advance of the effective date of his order. May Receive Some Credit
Dr. Woodruff stated today that students in the Army Air Corps Reserve might withdraw immediately with no credit and a full refund of the incidental fees. However, he emphasized that if they will remain in school through Tuesday, Feb. 16, they may draw one-fourth credit with a refund of one-half the incidental fee.
The University authorities are therefore urging all students thus affected to remain in attendance for one more week in order to obtain credit for the work done thus far this semester. In either event, Dr. Woodruff said, there will be a refund of the unused portion of health and laboratory fees.
Volunteers Called Later
The statement included no provision for air corps reservists who have applied for active duty. The assumption is that these men will not be called out until later, Mr. Woodruff said.
The order will affect about 60 men on the University campus, the registrar estimated. "It is very likely, (continued to page eight)

A play of five scenes, depicting different stages in a woman's life and her changing attitudes toward men, will be the highlight of the program at the Jay Jane Jamboree at 4:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building.
Jay Janes To Have Jamboree Tomorrow
All University women are invited, especially those new to the campus this semester, said Virginia Rader, publicity chairman for the Jamboree. The main purpose of the meeting is to get acquainted with other women students.
Dancing and refreshments will be offered in addition to the program at a cost of 5e a person.

Allies Make Plans For Occupied Italy
Washington, Feb. 8.—(INS)—The United States today is making definite plans to establish a military government in Italy when that country has been knocked out of the war.
These plans are being made in accord with the decision of President Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston
These plans are being made President Roosevelt and Bri Churchill to accept nothing less than unconditional surrender of the major axis powers.
It also was in line with these plans that the state department on Saturday served notice that the American government has no intention of dealing with Count Ciano or any of the other Fascists who were ousted from the Italian government, apparently because they were suspected of toying with the idea of seeking a separate peace with the Allies.
Department Net Deceived
In an unusual move, the state department through an official spokesman, said the American government is not deceived by Ciano's removal as Italian Foreign Minister. The spokesman further warned that the United States intends to smash the entire Fascist regime in Italy whether its officials are in or out of office.
The occupational program for Italy is being drafted chiefly by the State and War Departments, in cooperation with other government agencies. The political policy to be pursued in Italy when that country has been occupied by the Allied armies is being formulated in the State Department. The plans are being made by Undersecretary of State Summer Welles, Assistant Secretary of State Adolph Berle, Jr., and Charles Yost, chief of the division of Foreign Territories.
Special School Planned
Plans for establishment of a military government in Italy are being made by the war department in a special training school at Charlottesville, Va., under the supervision of Maj. Gen. Allen W. Gullion, the Provost Marshall General of the U.S. army.
A small, select group of army officers and civilians are being trained at Charlottesville to act as administrative assistants to a military governor or Allied command in Italy.
These officers and civilians, all of whom have a fluent knowledge of the Italian language, are being coached in the laws, customs, economy and psychology of the Italian people. They also are taking courses in army organization, public administration, international law and the principles of military government.
To Restare Order
Purpose of the military government which is planned for Italy is to restore public order and safety in the areas which have been occupied by the Allied armies. It also is intended to pave the way for transfer of control of the country to an Allied civil government which will

Professor Simpson Gives Organ Recital
A vesper organ recital was presented by Prof. Guy Criss Simpson of the School of Fine Arts Sunday afternoon in Hoch auditorium.
The varied program offered something for every type of music lover, and the numbers chosen gave Professor Simpson opportunity to display some of the possibilities in registration and color that the Austin four-manual organ possesses.
The program began with "Chromatic Fantasie" by Thiele. This was followed by the "Concerto in D Minor" arranged by Bach from Vivaldi. Professor Simpson also played the 18th century "Andante" from Karl Stamitz, the opening movement of the Mendelssohn "Sonata in F Minor," the modern "Improvisation" by Karg-Elert, and "In Springtime" from the Philadelphia organist and composer, Kinder.
The program was ended with the "Toccata" from the Fifth Symphony for organ by Widor.
Mrs. Roosevelt Christens Ship
Camden, Me., Feb. 8-(INS)—Christened by Mrs. Roosevelt, "The Pine Tree," largest wooden vessel to be launched in the United States in 20 years, went down the ways this afternoon for the United States Maritime Commission as one means of beating the U-Boats.
As the 194-foot craft slid into the water a crowd at the Yards of the Camden Shipbuilding and Maritime company cheered. Among the spectators was a delegation of Penobscot Indians from old town who inducted Mrs. Roosevelt into their tribe.
Country Doctor Found Older
The Iowa farmer's doctor is considerably older than the medic of the city dweller, according to figures compiled by Kaeethe Menglebert, Iowa State college economist.

LaGuardia opposes the ban on sliced bread. He said: "This silly regulation has caused more waste than anything else we have had."

govern Italy until a final peace treaty is concluded and put into effect.
The Americans who are being trained at Charlottesville to help govern a liberated Italy are being told that they will obtain best results by a policy of "justice, honor and humanity."
While the necessity for firmness in handling the Italian people is being emphasized to the Charlottesville students they also are being told, in the words of Gen. Gullion, that "harshness, injustice or oppression" will only sow the seeds of another war, whereas "just, considerate and mild treatment will convert enemies into friends."
University Band Will Play Tomorrow Night Over Station KFKU
The 65-piece University Band will give a program over radio station KFKU, from 9:30 to 10 p.m., Wednesday, Russell L. Wiley, director, reported today.
The program will be as follows: "Crimson and the Blue;" Part I of the Othello Suite" by Coleridge-Taylor; the "Blue Danube Waltzes" by Strauss; the "March Heroic" by Holmes; "Liebesfreud" and "Sehan Rosmarin" by Fritz Krider; the service songs: "Anchors Aweigh," "Cassion Song," "Marines Hymn," and "Army Air Corps." The program will be concluded with the playing of the "Star Spangled Banner."
Hoover Reviews Manpower Effort
Washington, Feb. 8 (INS) — Former President Herbert Hoover today went before a Senate appropriations sub-committee in secret session to give his views on mobilization of manpower for the war effort.
Accompanied by former ambassador to Germany, Hugh Gibson, the former president was expected to tell the committee of his administration of the food problem during World War I.
A special senate appropriations subcommittee which has been holding hearings on manpower requirements of the armed services, war industries and essential civilian businesses, will hear Hoover in a secret session.
The subcommittee is headed by Senator Bankhead (D) Ala., who has expressed a serious concern over the shortage of manpower for the nation's farms.
Senator Thomas (D) Okla., a subcommittee member, said that whatever Hoover says will carry a great deal of weight throughout the country.
"He studied the problem of supplies very thoroughly when he was food administrator in the last war," Thomas said. "And he's not involved with the government now."

Army-Navy Award Given To Twelve More Plants
Washington, Feb. 8 (INS) — Twelve additional industrial plants have been given the Army-Navy production award for outstanding war work, Undersecretary of War Robert P. Patterson and Undersecretary of the Navy James V. Forrestal announced today.
The firms include:
Manhattan Construction Co., and E. E. Evans Construction Co., Camp Chagee, Ark.; F. H. McGraw and o., and Freeto construction Co., Jayhawk Ordnance Works, Baxter Springs, Kans.
Tug Boat Sinks After Capsizing
Philadelphia, Feb. 8 (INS) — Harbor patrolmen today searched for the bodies of four crew members and the captain of a Delaware river tug boat which sank when the submerged railroad barge it was guarding reared out of the water, capsized the tug, and then settled again in 32 feet of water.
Four other members of the crew, two of whom are in serious condition were rescued.
The tug, J. M. Taylor, was stationed with the Baltimore and Ohio freight car float after it sank Saturday, ward off other shipping. Suddenly one end of the 85-foot barge rose under the keel of the tug, capsized it, and then pulled it into the deep part of the channel, harbor authorities theorized.
Officials believe that the churning of river waters by a deep-draft freighter may have been the cause of the float's surfacing.
The dead were Captain Alton Murray, Baltimore; Norman Hickman, fireman; Ole Knutsen, deckhand; Andrew Benekos, deckhand, and Alpheus Dixon, cook, all from Philadelphia.

Social Functions Last Week Result In Party Scarcity
After a week filled with mid-weeks, hour dances, varsities, and farewells, there seems little left in the way of social functions for University students.
Sororities and fraternities, having exhausted themselves as well as their pledges with various aspects of hell week, have now settled down to the more serious problems of initiations and the election of officers for the following year
There are a few houses, however, who are planning for entertainment Friday evening despite their more serious problems. Watkins hall is holding open house Wednesday evening from 7 until 8 o'clock and all University men have been invited to attend. The Bachmann-Pope orchestra will furnish the music.
Jollife hall is planning a party for Friday evening from 9 until 12 o'clock in the chapter house. The Campus house, however, will enter with a buffet supper and line party.

Coach Hargiss Schedules Trials For Cindermen
A tryout meet will be held for Jayhawk trackmen Friday, Coach Bill Hargiss announced today. Additional tryouts will be held next week.
A squad of 75 men is working out on the indoor track beneath Memorial Stadium in preparation for the Big Six indoor meet at Kansas City, Feb. 27. Included in the group is a lone letterman, Valle Schloesser.
Several squadmen from last year's team, "some likely-looking" sophomores and a large group of freshmen make up the remainder of the squad, according to Hargiss.
Hargiss today declared that if big Six officials rule freshmen eligible for the indoor meet, he will be able to send one of the strongest squads to represent Kansas in recent years.
Whiz Kids Indiana Win Again
Chicago, Feb. 8—(INS) =Indiana and Illinois continued their Big Ten undefeated season last night as the Hosiers whipped Michigan 45-33 and at Bloomington the Whiz Kids defeated Ohio State 50-44 at Columbus. It was Indiana's fifteenth straight victory. The Big Ten leaders rate No.1 and 2 in the nation.
Andy Phillip, Illini hotshot saw his 21-point conference average tumble to 19 for seven games as he tallied only eight against the Buck-eyes.
Great Lakes avenged one of its two defeats this season in trouncing Northwestern 57-36 at Great Lakes last night. The sailor record is now 24 victories in 26 starts.

Something Left Unsettled
Included among the smaller tra-degies of the Army Air Corps call is the news that Charlie Black will probably not be here to settle the Black-Tucker "best-player" controversy in the Kansas-Oklahoma game Feb. 26.
Coach Bruce Drake of Oklahoma recently declared that Titanic Tucker topped the Kansas ace while Phog Allen stoutly plugs Black. Drake might point to Tucker's last showings against Nebraska and Iowa State as proof. Allen might point to Black's 33-point scoring record, his great defensive play and his 18-point performance against Great Lakes.
Black has his ups and downs, his downs mainly because he doesn't feel like playing sometimes. Against Oklahoma at Norman he turned in a worthy game—not his best, but enough to cause Sooner defeat. The scoring read Black eight, Tucker 11 points. On defense and offensive Black elbowed Tucker aside to monopolize rebounds, providing the major factor in Kansas' upset victory. In that game the nod went to Charlie.
But now Tucker has improved along with the surging Sooner five. He and Black are tied for the Big Six scoring leadership with a 16-point average. "Tucker scores 23 against K-State, 18 against Nebraska, 15 against Iowa State," the summaries read. He certainly has been having a spree.
So, if Black and Tucker do not meet, here is final judgment: Gerald is a bit better than Charlie when Black is down but hardly merits comparison with the Kansas cager when Black is at his best. Witness the Eastern road trip, the Clipper game here, the Tiger contest, the Great Lakes game—Black's top displays.
This elaborately contrived evaluation is presented in lieu of the probable non-clash of the two. If the Air Corps waits until Feb. 28 to call Black and he performs badly against Tucker drop around after the game for a revised handicapping.

Black Will Not Play Against NU--Cyclones
Kansas is due to fall from the Big Six cage leadership on its northern swing if precedent influences Jayhawk games at Nebraska Saturday and Iowa State Monday. The Jayhawks have defeated Nebraska for two years straight only to get knocked off by the Cyclones at Ames the following Monday night.
Also aiding precedent will be the absence of Charlie Black, the Big Six's best offensive and defensive cager. The big junior is still in Watkins hospital with the flu and, according to Coach Phog Allen, "may be ready for the A-M game Feb. 17."
Coach Allen, who said "we may drop one," liked Sophomore Sparky McSpadden's play against Iowa State here and will start him against the Huskers and Cyclones.
Even minus Black and fighting the road jinx, Kansas is expected to win both games. Sad-faced Center John Buescher and a rebounding Ray Evans took up the slack in the second half against the Cyclones here.
Nebraska has been erratic this year, winning and losing two Big Six games. The Huskers lost to Indiana 39-40 in December, missing victory when Ralph Heinzelman botched a setup in the final seconds.
Chief scorer is Forward John Thompson with an 8.5 Big Six average. Lack of height has handicapped Nebraska this year.

Phi Gamma Delta pulled away from Pi K A last night to win 35-28 and throw these two teams into a three way tie with Phi Kappa Psi who defeated Delta Upsilon 47-10. Both teams played a ragged first half, passing badly and missing the basket.
The Phi Gam's had a 13-12 halftime advantage. John Herron, low-built and rugged, stole the ball from an opponent twice his size and charged
down the court for a setup to spark a Fiji second half rally. It was reliable Larry McSpadden who led the second half scoring, connecting with all of his 13 points in the second period. Fiji Bill Palmer was largely responsible for victory as he scored 13 points, and holding Pi K A hot shot, Bill Atwell to a lone nieid goal.
Atwell, usually a high scorer was cold as a spaniel's nose leaving it to Louis McCormick to take Pi K A scoring honors with 12 points.

Sooners Glide Over Cyclones To Keep Pace
Norman, Feb. 8 — (Special) — Second-place Oklahoma kept hot after Kansas in trouncing weak Iowa State 47-20 last night, three points better than the Jayhawk total against the Cyclones.
Gerald Tucker dropped into a tie with Charlie Black for the Big Six scoring leadership as he and Bob McCurdy each scored 13 points. Tucker's average is now 16 points a game. Black, who has played two contests less than Tucker's five, has 48 points for a 16-point average.
Apparently trying to gain a wide offensive-defensive spread, Oklahoma played a defensive game after piling up a 23-6 halftime advantage (if the Sooners tie with Kansas for the title the quinter with the best offensive-defensive record will be considered for the NCAA playoffs). Iowa State's sophomores were as cold as against Kansas, connecting only six of 66 shots. The Cyclones are now in fifth place with two victories and four losses.

Bill Would Call Women For Defense

Washington, Feb. 8 (INS)—Backed with the power and influence of several nation-wide civic and military organizations, labor draft bills were introduced simultaneously in both branches of congress today.
Known as the "National War Service Act of 1943" the legislation would make subject to compulsory noncombatant service wherever they are best fitted all men between the ages of 18 and 65 and all women from 18 to 50 who are not now in the armed services.
The bill was introduced in the Senate by Senator Warren R. Austin (R) Vt., and in the House by Rep. James W. Wadsworth (R) N.Y.
Actively supporting 'and urging enactment of the bill are the American Legion, original sponsor of Universal Selective Service, and the newly-formed Citizens Committee for a National War Service Act. The latter, as the national emergency committee, aided in the drafting and advocacy of the Selective Service Act of 1940.
Introduction of the bill was seen as an evidence of dissatisfaction at the delay of the administrative branch in proposing manpower legislation.
Sen. Austin, at a press conference, said the Senate military affairs committee had been told last October that such legislation was in process of preparation and would be ready in "two weeks."
"We haven't had a bill presented yet," he said.
Efforts will be made, they said, to obtain enactment of the bill prior to April 1, when the recent "work or fight" order of McNutt becomes effective.
The bill would require registration of women in the specified age limits, under the selective service act. The chairman of the War Manpower Commission is designated as the agency, to carry out its provisions as
Existing laws relating to maximum hours, minimum wages, or otherwise affecting relations between employer and employee are not affected by the bill and it does not affect in any way the 1940 and 1942 selective service laws.
Miss Miller Says Women Wish More Irregular Work

Reserve Plans Can Still Be Changed; College Men Should Stay in School
University men, by this time, should have become hardened to the conflicting reports of the war department concerning the fate of the college reserves. There have been plenty of them.
The fact is, however, that the reservists are still susceptible to every story which creates a change or delay in the reserve pattern. And they should be, for what the war department finally decides to do is of great importance to them.
Now, after several months of utter confusion during which the morale of men at this and other universities hit a new low, it finally appears that something definite has been resolved from the mass of red tape which winds in and out of Washington departments.
Members of the air force reserve are informed on another page of this paper that they will be called, if possible, between the 20th and the 28th of this month. The army enlisted reserve has been told to expect call at any time beginning in February. Naval reserves do not figure in any mobilization plans for this school year.
Yet no University man can be sure when he is to go until he receives his orders. In the past the war department has not played fair with the college students, and the uncertainty about when the reserves would be called has already wrecked many a student's work.
If University men could be sure that they would be called within the next two weeks, many of them would drop out of school. Some have done just that on the strength of the recent announcements which carried an air of authenticity.
But let's profit by our mistakes. The war department has let us down before, and, even though intentions may this time be firm and the statement of those intentions definite, a lot of things could interfere with the machinery that the war department is to use to transfer hundreds of thousands of reserves to army camps all over the nation. It would be impossible to handle all the reserves at once, and the call may be over a period of several months.
We can't hope to change army policies, no matter how unfair and inconsiderate they are of us. We can, however, stay in school and study hard until the day we know we must report for active duty.
Let's have no repetition of the "What the hell" attitude which swept the reserves — and which spread to other men and women students — the final few weeks of last semester.
College men must realize that their status has been changed. They are no longer merely reserves to be utilized when needed; they are the integral cogwheel of the new unified War Manpower Commission's plans for the training of officers.
This is no time to let up and say, "What the hell." Now is the time to buck up and say, "Let's keep going!"
Education Holds Key to Future And Nazis Strike First at Schools

Why have the Nazi always struck at educational institutions early in their process of occupation?

How long it will take Lawrence rooming house keepers to lower rents to student levels

Hitler must have some reason, other than sheer blind rage, to strike savagely at a country's academic freedom by undermining and warping the minds of innocent school children.
There seems to be an instinct that leads totalitarian rulers to overthrow those citadels of independent thought from which free men proclaim the truth to a country's youth.
The Nazis are using force to sow the seeds of "New Order" ideas in conquered lands.
We are using force to keep our democratic way of life with its compound of idealism, tolerance, and individualism. We must cherish, preserve, and strengthen our liberal arts tradition as never before. We must do this even while we are turning more and more of our efforts toward the production of implements of warfare that are indispensable in this war for survival.
If there is a hope for a new and better world, that hope lies in the field of education not only of America, but the world over. The schools of democratic nations, however, have the obligation of leadership; they must, in this senseless era, preserve the sensible concepts of freedom and individualism if the processes of democracy are to survive World War II.

Star duster: In a letter received recently from Captain J. J. Svoboda, who has three sons and a daughter in the University, he described an interesting experience he had at the marine base in San Diego, Calif., where he is stationed. One of the marines was cleaning up his headquarters one day, and he noticed the man's name on the back of his shirt. (All marines have to have their names printed there.) Captain Svoboda had the marine dust everything in the room before he dismissed him. The name on the back of the shirt was Tyrone Power.
Typographical errors. The Kansan in Sunday's issue erroneously placed an Alpha Tau Omega head on a story of Alpha Chi Omega initiations. The mistake displeased the Alpha Chi's no end, while the Alpha Tau's looked at each other in amazement when they read of their feminine initiates. It is, perhaps, noteworthy, that the Alpha Tau's are now choosing their roommates for the next semester.

Parlor Games A Solution
Shoes Precious
"No, thanks, we're staying home tonight." So runs the course of conversation, "we're saving for the duration."
It seems the most practical thing to do would be to have Grandma teach us some of those exciting, old parlor games. We all have had our parents and? ___
How? It's simple. First, no tires. Then, no gas. Now, no shoes. We can't ride, fly, or even walk. So we stay home.
It seems the most practical Grandma teach us some of those all have had our parents and grandparents tell us again and again how much fun they had playing those games of "Spin the Bottle" and "Musical Chairs."
Or, if we can find a horse, we can always hitch him up to a buggy, wagon or cart and take a long ride in the country. Not much chance of going over 35 miles per hour, anyway.
May Go Barefooted
And it seems only logical that during the hot summer months, the natives of the United States may well adopt the style of going bare-footed. It will save shoes for the cold, winter months. Soon it will probably not look ridiculous to see a casually dressed coed walking daintly down the street in a thin, summer blouse, dirndl skirt and, yes, bare feet! It won't be startling to see a pair of bare feet below a boy's mussed cords instead of a pair of dirty saddle shoes!
In spite of the fact that such sights as mentioned above is just wishful thinking, the lavish-footed American public will find it necessary to stop kicking. At least with their shoes on. Long hikes will be out for the duration. Anxious fathers will have to find other outlets of energy than pacing the floor. Dancing will be carried on in a less bouyant manner than before. Jitter-bugs, hep-cats, and solid-senders will either slow down or work in their stocking feet.
Rationing is Begun
Sunday the stores were closed to all trading. Yesterday began the rationing. So get out No.17 in your
图2-13
coffee-sugar ration book and buy a pair of shoes. Only be careful. These shoes must be good quality; they must have soles an inch thick; and be made to last a life-time.

She said, this registration means "that the already hard-pressed universities will practically have to shut up shop, except those prepared to give medical and technical courses and to teach women students."

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
PAGE SEVEN
Ordinance Is Enforced Scene Changes
Without fanfare there went into effect in this city on Jan. 1, 1943, an ordinance which had upon its original passage last spring caused something of a furor. The ordinance made it illegal for beer to be served in establishments where dancing was allowed. With the passage and enforcement of the law, there passed from the Lawrence scene—perhaps permanently, perhaps temporarily—a colorful spectacle of which few citizens of this city were aware
The Lawrence man-about-town, before January 1, 1943, could, if he desired an evening's entertainment, choose between the cinema and several establishments offering dancing and drinks. Perhaps he would be attracted by Johnny's Place, where the younger crowd hung out, and where high school boys and girls jitterbugged to the redhot music of Bob Crosby.
Perhaps he preferred to move further up Massachusetts street to Wiedemann's, where college couples or sailors and their dates danced dreamily to the sweet strains of Guy Lombardo's orchestra recordings. Or perhaps he preferred to cross the street to the east side and enter the Wonderbar, favorite spot of SOW workers, and from where the blaring strains of a Bob Wills' number frequently came forth.
Taste For Unusual
But if he really knew his Lawrence, and especially if it was Friday night and he had a taste for the unusual, he might very well ignore all these places and leave Massachusetts, moving east up Ninth street.
There he would come to a place marked by a neon Schlitz beer sign, and with the name—Eagle Lunch—painted in red on the windows. The establishment is better known to its clientele as The Eagle Nest.
As he pushed his way into the smoky, crowded interior, he would be greeted by music decidedly unlike that he had heard elsewhere in the city's other dancing places, for on Friday nights the management boasted of "real home-made music." In the window would be a four-piece orchestra—an accordionist, a trumpet man, a fiddler, and a guitar player. Refreshing themselves with draughts of beer between tunes, the musicians would reel off tirelessly the repeated choruses of such songs as "Frankie and Johnny," "The Wabash Cannonball," and "San Antonio Rose."
From the center of the floor would come a noisy calling of feet, and a harsh voice calling: "Do-si-do, and a little more do and on you go. You know where and I don't care. Promenade!"
Patrons Square Dance
On the crowded floor two groups of square dancers would be reeling through an old-fashioned hoe-down to the call of Sam, the proprietor and spare-time auctioneer. Concentrating intently upon the task before them, the eight couples, usually elderly folk, performed the dance with swearing earnestness or with spirit which occasionally caused them to break out into an impromptu jig.

Violators Face OPA Prosecution For Shoe Sales
Washington, Feb. 9 (INS) — Reports of non-compliance with the one-day ban on the sale of shoes, preparatory to nationwide rationing, brought a swift warning today from the OPA that violators face strict reprisals.
Under the President's war powers statutes, retailers who sold shoes yesterday in violation of the OPA restriction, face prosecution and the imposition of fines up to $10,000 and a year in jail, the OFA announced.
Reports were received in Washington that some retailers were critical of the "arbitrary" nature of the OPA order preliminary to the rationing of shoes which began today.
OPA officials said that if advance notices of the rationing order had been sent to all stores "leaks" would have occurred followed by a wave of buying that would have "knocked out rationing."
If the suspension order had been issued on a week day "some doubtlessly would have put up signs: 'Buy your shoes before the ban goes on tonight'," the spokesman said. "Whether they have received an official notice or not, the regulations have been issued and they are official. They will be enforced."
Meanwhile millions of Americans penciled a heavy circle around sugar stamp No. 17 today, reserving this coupon for the purchase of a pair of shoes under a "generous" rationing program that will provide three pairs a year for each person.
An unheralded announcement from Economic Czar James F. Byrnes outlined the latest civilian war measure—the "ideal rationing

Today the Lunch is merely another side street restaurant. Only during the meal periods does do any extensive business, and the four-piece orchestra a thing of the past. One cannot help wondering, however, where its former patrons now spend their Friday nights, and their cash.
The place was a bedlam of noise until well past 1 e'clock. Then slowly the patrons would begin to drift away. By 2 the last customer had departed, and another Friday night at the Eagle's Nest would be over.
In a PSGL senate meeting at the Beta Theta Pi fraternity house Sunday evening, Wally Kunkel, College senior, Curtis Burton, law senior, and Charles Clinkenbeard, business senior, were elected to positions on the Men's Student Council which were vacated by former PSGL members.

plan" which gave hoarders no advance warning and prevented a "run" on the country's stocks of footwear.
Tom Manion, College senior, was elected to a position on the Student Court.
Sales were suspended until today, giving storekeepers time to separate rationed and unrated items.
Price Administrator Prentiss W. Brown, whose agency will administer the new program, said the action would halt a wave of buying that has exceeded production; prevent stocks from reaching the danger point, and insure civilians all the shoes they need for the duration.
OFFICIAL BULLETIN
"For the first time in these fast-moving days, we have been able to get on top of a situation before it got on top of us, and the public will benefit," Brown said. "The plan is simple and the ration is more than liberal."

Knox also urged that Lend Lease funds be used to arm people of occupied countries as U.S. forces pass through such areas "on their way to Germany."

Navy Staff Adds Three Teachers
Three chief specialist mates, G. W. Gatherings, L. C. Gawthrop, and H. S. McCool, have been added to the physical education staff of the Naval Training School.
These men received their training at the Norfolk Training School. This is the school at which Wayne Replogle, former freshman football coach graduated last week with top honors in his class.
Chief Specialist C. E. Bain, only physical education instructor at the school before the arrival of the above three, was interviewed by Bernie Bierman of the Iowa Preweek.
Increase in the personnel of the physical education department of the School will allow the sailors to form boxing, wrestling and other athletic teams that they have previously been unable to form because of the lack of instructors.
F. T. Fox, pharmacist's mate arrived last week to assume his new duties. A new group of cooks and bakers arrived at the school last week also.

ROTC Unit Enters 15 In Rifle Match
The University ROTC unit entered 15 men in the Seventh Service Command Intercollegiate Gallery Match rifle competition which will last four weeks, one stage being fired each week. The contest is held annually in accordance with 'regulations promulgated by the War Department.
The entries are restricted to one team from each institution with less than 400 enrolled in ROTC. Schools with more than 400 may enter two teams.
The University's military enrollment dropped to less than 400 this semester, limiting the entry to one team. All of the schools with junior ROTC units in the nine states of this corps area will be represented in the contest.
The first stage, that is firing from the prone position, was completed yesterday. The remaining three stages will be fired in the following order: sitting, kneeling, and standing. Each of the 15 men will fire two targets in each position. These targets will be sent to the Seventh Corps Area headquarters in Omaha, Neb. The national match under the same sponsorship will be fired later in the year.

The first encore, "Tannhauser" by Wagner, was followed by the second and final encore, John Philip Sousa's "Stars and Stripes Forever" which has seldom been heard in recent years on philharmonic programs.

Washington (INS)—Major Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, director of the Selective Service today told Congress that the great majority of the physically fit men between ages of 18 and 38 would be drafted into the armed service before the end of the year—regardless of occupation or marital status.
He also disclosed that men would be inducted at the rate or 400,000 a month during the next few months—two million men by the time summer rolls around. He said too, that it would be possible to draft several hundred thousand single men working in war factories now and let them remain at their jobs in army uniform and at army pay.

"The science of government has not advanced as have other sciences," Governor Stassen remarked. "Those who have been university-educated should make increased contributions to the art of living together."
Should Make Contributions
He suggested a list of seven major functions in war effort which were: (1) to establish temporary governments over the Axis nations after they had been disarmed and their leaders had been punished; (2) to administer the airports and airways of the world and establish rules of the air; (3) to administer the gateways to the seven seas; (4) to increase world trade; (5) to increase literacy and improve the health of all the world; (6) to establish a code of justice for all nations; and (7) to establish an armed United Nations legion to enforce justice.

two weeks ago, but reservists there have not all been called up for some reason. Certain categories such as medics, premedics, engineers, and advanced ROTC students are not affected by today's order.
Washington, Feb. 11 (INS) - The nine army service commands today made plans to call enlisted reserve corps students to active duty within two weeks at the end of various current college semesters, in accordance with the Army's reserve program.
War Department described calls as routine carrying out of pla officially announced Jan. 29. War Department officials emphasized that "substantial portions" of students included in orders—chiefly technical students will still remain in school to complete their studies.
The department said that all orders are being issued, or will be issued, by the nine service commands in various sections of the nation.
The Army Enlisted Reserve Corps, containing 415 students will be called to active duty within two weeks, according to an announcement from the War Department today.
Only pre-medics, medics, senior R.O.T.C. members, and other technical students will not be included in this call to the colors. These technical students will be called as soon as the army believes that they have had sufficient training.
Figures were not available on the number of students in the AERC, but undoubtedly many of the reserve are students in technical training and the orders received by students in the next two weeks will probably total approximately 250, Dr. Laurence Woodruff said.
Air Corpsmen Leave School For Training
Seventy members of the Army Air Corps soon to be heading into the "wild sky yonder" have dropped out of school and reclaimed their fees according to the business office this morning.

KU Women Give Opinion on Draft
"It's all right if it's necessary," is the general reaction of University women to the bill now being considered which provides for registration of women and possible drafting of available woman-power, according to a poll made yesterday and today.
Some of the opinions expressed:
Miss Marie Miller, assistant adviser of women—"I rather favor the idea of voluntary service unless the emergency demands conscription of women. I feel that women are willing to do their part but those who go voluntarily would have more interest in their work. We must do what the emergency requires whether or not we like it."
Although most women intebill. they think it should notaffect college students.
Alice Marie Hayes, College freshman—"I like the idea. Most girls will look forward to it with a thrill or else will feel that it really needs to be done and go at it as a patriotic duty. I don't know whether or not it is necessary now, but I don't see how it could do any harm."
Evelyn Nielsen. College senior— "I think if men between the ages of 18 and 45 must register, women should also. There is no reason one part of our population should be singled out for service, while the rest of us can go ahead with our plans as if there were no emergency existing."
Necessary Move
Martha Young, senior in business "It seems to be a necessary move if they can't get women to voluntarily take jobs, but it's going to be a most difficult job to place women in the positions for which they are best suited."
Esther DeBord, College junior—
"If we want to win the war and win
it quickly, that's one of the best
ways to do it."
Mary Lou Lohman, senior in business—"Personally I don't like it, but just because we are women we shouldn't be exempted from military service. If we are to have total war it is necessary."
Kathryn Krebiel, College sophomore—"I don't favor drafting women because if the government follows its proposed idea of turning out men over 38 from the fighting forces, there should be enough workers for industry. I think that if women entirely take over industry there will be a very difficult period of adjustment and rearrangement when the fighting men come home after the war and prepare to resume their former position as wage earners and heads of families."
Viola Richardson, junior in fine arts-"I think that registration of women is a good idea. It will show what reserves are available if enough women to fill war positions do not volunteer."
Jerry Powell, College senior-"I
think it's necessary, if the proper exemptions are considered. College women capable of attaining a degree should be allowed to stay in school."
Serepta Pierpont, junior in fine arts—"It's all right if they want to have registration, but it's unnecessary, because there should be e- enough volunteers. Women who are in college should be allowed to complete their education."
Barbara Winn, College sophomore "I think it's silly for college girls unless they can get a higher position than the common ordinary women. The government is always asking for trained women, and we should finish our education." Against Registration
Against Registration
Margaret Penny, senior in business—"I am against registration. It is probably the best thing for the war effort but I am against the war effort. I think that less harm would be done by letting the enemy take over than by the war."
Mary Louise Harling. College sophomore—"I favor immediate conscription of women."
Edith Olmsted, College sophomore — "We want to win the war, and if registration and drafting of available woman-power will help, it is a necessary move."
Ruth Kelley. College senior—I think that since the fellows are fighting that non-combatant service is the least that we can do. It seems as though it might be necessary now, and whatever the government says is all right with me."
Do Voluntary Work
Marjorie Bueker, College sophomore—"I think that men are doing enough and that women can do voluntary work."
Betty Winterscheedt. College freshman—"Production is an important factor in winning this war. If women can speed up production they should be drafted for war work."
Nancy Brown. College sophomore—"I think that those of us in College should finish, and then we can help more later with more education. Women who are just wasting their time should be required to do some sort of work to help the war effort. Probably it's necessary right now, but I don't like the idea of being drafted."
Catherine Foster, College sophomore—"I think that women can do more at home just keeping the world stable so that there will be something for the men to come back to that is more-or-less the same as it was before.

Government Needs Persons Skilled in Oil and Rubber Crops
Persons with a practical knowledge of the production of rubber and oil-producing crops and other tropical plants, including the procurement of wild rubber, are being sought for federal employment, the Civil Service Commission announced Monday.
El Centro, Calif.—(ACP)—Automobile tires, as well as salads and bridge club sandwiches may be made of lettuce.
The positions range from chief crop production specialist, at $8,000 a year, to the assistant grade at $2,600 a year and persons appointed will do work in connection with the establishment and operation of research stations or plantations growing rubber or oil-producing plants. The duties will involve making surveys of the country to determine the selection of proper sites, soils, and other essential factors.
Latex Found in Lettuce May Be Rubber Substitute
L. G. Goar, of the University of California college of agriculture, disclosed that tests of three varieties of lettuce showed high contents of latex, main substance of rubber.
One wild variety, he said, yielded 29 per cent of latex from its stalk, as compared with approximately 25 per cent from guayule after three years growth.

Let's get serious about this job of winning the war. Vast quantities of war materials and thousands of troops are now being transported by rail.
To better and more efficiently move the ever-increasing production of essential materials and supplies, Union Pacific is
voluntarily reducing the speed of its regular passenger trains.
We know that all civilians who find it necessary to travel will willingly adjust themselves to slightly longer schedules and, during the duration, to somewhat less travel comfort if conditions so require. Our Nation's welfare must come first at all times.

"In these war years there is no room in college for loafers. The armed forces have been cooperative in the matter of permitting serious-minded young men to remain in college, with the single view in mind of preparing themselves adequately for future service as officers. We intend, on our part, to see that the students make such preparations as adequately and as speedily as possible."

Jayhawks Corner Statistical Honors
As the Big Six basketball race starts into the second half this weekend, the Kansas Jayhawkers maintain a stranglehold on conference offensive-defensive honors.
With four victories and no defeats, the Jayhawks are perched atop the standings with Oklahoma nipping their heels, only a half game behind with four.
Offensively the Kansans have averaged 50.3 points a game to top Oklahoma's mark of an even 50 points a game. On the defensive side the Jayhawks have a more commanding advantage. In four games opponents of Kansas have been held to 32 points and Oklahoma is once again second with an average of 35.2 points.
Among individual scorers four of the Iron Five crew are among the top seven point-makers in the loop. Tied for first place are Charlie Black of Kansas and Gerald Tucker of Oklahoma, two all-Big Six stars last year as sophomores, with averages of 16 points a game.
Paine Runs Third
Allie Paine, who played independent ball last year after a sparkling sophomore season at Oklahoma, is in third place for the Sooners followed by Missouri's first-year star, Thornton Jenkins.
Next three men in the individual standings all hail from Coach F. C. Allen's starting five. Ray Evans, hard-charging guard, leads the tric with an average of 10.5 followed by Otto Schnellbacher and John Buescher with 10.2 and 8.7 points a game.
This weekend finds the Jayhawk-examining on a rugged road trip with two games to be won minus the services of Black. Nebraska will be met for the first time this season on Saturday night and the return game with Iowa State will be played at Ames Monday night.
May Be Finished
Black, who is still in the campus hospital with pneumonia, may be lost to the team for the remainder of the season if present plans of the Army Air Corps to call all enlisted men this month are completed.
Replacing the junior ace will be the smallest man on the Kansas squad, 5-foot 10-inch Sparky McSpadden who played 26 minutes against Iowa State Saturday.
Devers Sure of African Victory
Fort Knox—(INS)—Lt. Gen. Jacob L. Devers, chief of the U.S. armored forces after a visit to Africa reports: "I am confident the Americans, British, and French troops can and will drive the Germans and Italians out of Africa, or if they make a stand, annihilate them."
Allen Commissioned Naval Flight Ensign
William R. Allen, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Allen of North Kansas City, won his Navy Wings of Gold and was commissioned an ensign in the Naval Reserve this week following completion of the prescribed flight training course at the US Naval Air Training Center, Pensacola, Fla.
Prior to entering the Naval service, Ensign Allen studied at the University of Kansas and was a member of the college varsity baseball team.
Allen completed preliminary training at the US Naval Air Station in Kansas City, in September before reporting to the "Annapolis of the Air" for basic and advanced training. Ensign Allen will be stationed at the Pensacola base as a flight instructor.
ROTC Team Shoots In Second Round
The second stage of the Seventh Service Command Intercollegiate Gallery match will be completed by the end of this week, Lt. Col. Jack Gage, in charge of University firing, reported today. Only a few of the sitting position targets have been completed. Two more weeks remain in the contest which is to end with firing at targets from the standing position.
The University entered one ROTC team consisting of 15 men. The five best marksmen will be chosen to enter the William Randolph Hearst ROTC rifle competition.
Scores attained in the first stage are William Acker, 99; Dale Linglebach, 99; Edwin Crowley, 98; George Robb, 98; Charles Searle, 97; Robert Harris, 97; Leonard Diehl, 95; Jack C. Bower, 95; Frank Tyler, 94; Charles Allen, 92; Billy Stanton, 92; Herbert Borgman, 91; Hillman Dickinson, 91; Ralph Ward, 90; and Delbert Perkins, 83. Team average for the prone position was 94.

John Moore outfought the Blanks Tuesday night to come out on the long end of the score, 36-30, and take over first place in Division III standings.
Blanks were handicapped by the absence of mainstay Junius Penny who might have been the difference between a loss and victory. Fenny's teammate Bert Bell hit 15 points for high scoring honors. Heaston and Bill Bartlett led the Coop attack with eight points each.
Penny Absent
It was a dead heat at the half, 15 all. John Moore began to hit the basket and with lanky Bob Heaston rebounding the Coop built up its six point margin for victory.
Harry Wherry and Carl Unruh paced Hellhounds to another victory, 27-14, at the expense of 4-F. Wherry and Unruh scored 11 and 10 points respectively. Lloyd Svoboda threw in six points for 4-F.

LIEF IN 1905
One member of the 1905 world-champion Buffalo Germans still recalls vividly the three-game cage series with the Kansas City Athletic Club, manned by Phog Allen and his brothers. Robert Craig, now field representative for the Extension division at Kansas City and previously a safe company salesman, tells of running across this particular cager in a Buffalo bank.
When Craig mentioned Kansas City the staid banker remarked that he'd been in KC only once but had good reason to remember it as a violent period in his life.
Led by the then undoctored and unphogged Allen, KCAC had whipped Buffalo two straight and was finding it rough going in the third game. Fouls were heavy—like the Oklahoma Aggie game here—and tempers short as the champion Germans attempted salvage of one game.
Pete Allen (now an Army colonel and commandant of Stanford's ROTC) slugged the reminiscing banker, cooling him with rabbit punch.
The referee, conveniently occupied elsewhere, hadn't seen the bout so Phog, as manager of the team, demanded that he heave Pete:
Forrest C. weighed somewhat less than 200 at that time—Pete was a huge man, weighing a bruising 210 pounds. Irrégardless, Phog decided.
"Get him out of here—he slugged that guy!"
Since he hadn't seen the punching, the official couldn't and wouldn't eject Pete.
Still sore at his brother's "unsporsmanlike conduct" Phog brooded over the incident while mates carried the cold easterner off the court.
"Take a shower, Pete. We can play without you."
(P. S. KCAC won the third game also and became known as world champion—Phog's first great basketball team.)
the only thing Thayer lacked that Moser had was about five inches in height, but he outhustled the Theta Tau's to keep his team in the running and scored 15 points himself. Homer Cunningham, a perennial engineer point maker scored 10 points.
Alpha Chi Sigma kept its record clean by downing A K Psi 24-21. With Harold Wright unable to play, the winners' Warren Lowen sacked

Churchill Tells Of Casablanca In Parliament
By International News Service
Prime Minister Winston Churchill lifted the curtain on the Casablanca conference today.
The watchword of the United Nations from this time forward, he said, will make the Axis "burn and bleed," until the last vestige of its tranny and aggression have been taken from the surface of the earth. Unexpected Appearance
He served notice upon Germany, Italy, and Japan that he and President Roosevelt in that historic meeting had drafted and adopted a world-wide program of offensive action against the enemy on land, sea, and in the skies.
Unexpected Apearance
Churchill made his unexpected appearance before the House of Commons to deliver his report in advance of a broadcast scheduled for Sunday.
His resume was a detailed one, characterized both by caution and by optimism. To the members of Parliament he told everything except the one great secret of the war—"just when and where the United Nations would strike in force against Adolph Hitler on the continent of Europe.
At the same time, he made clear that the major battle in Tunisia must precede this eagerly awaited invasion. He discussed that 500,000 American and British troops were landed in North Africa on November 7, and against these the Axis army estimated at a quarter of a million men is now a symbol.

Bald-Headed Man Leads In Hairpin Salvage Drive
Winsted, Conn., (iNS) Because their stock of hairpins is rapidly dwindling and there is no further supply in sight, retail stores have been conducting a drive among employees to hunt for them behind back seats of their automobiles.

This will place the great American leader in command of some 750,000 men.
out this formidable force and clearing the way for the assault in Europe itself, Churchill announced that Lt. General Dwight D. Eisenhower would take over command of the British eighth army, now surging across the Tunisian border in pursuit of Field Marshall Rommel.
But while the Prime Minister spoke of the day when the world is liberated and the war-makers crushed for all time, men on the fighting front brought this longed-for moment even closer.
Red Armies Gain
In Russia, the Red armies smashed ahead through and reported gains. Another Allied victory was in the making in the Wau-Mubo area southeast of Lae on the island of New Guinea, where Australian jungle troops scored a six-mile advance.
Ground activity in Tunisia again was limited, but an early thrust was made by the British eighth army to crack or flank the Mareth line now shielding Rommel's forces.

Double Duty Conduit . . .
Storm Sewer Serves As Local Playground
+
By MARY ELEANOR FRY
Newcomers driving or walking east on Fourteenth street are probably surprised to see what at first glance appears to have been an attempt to put a wall around the town, with the project evidently having pooled out because of a vitamin deficiency, or the fun having died out, after the "wall" was about a foot high.
However, what they see isn't a fort with its growth stunted, but a steel-section and reinforced concrete storm sewer, 8 feet wide where it crosses the Ottawa line of the Santa Fe railroad on Thirteenth street, and $5_{1/2}$ feet wide where it runs into a draw on Fifteenth street. The height of the conduit is $5_{1/2}$ feet, a foot or more being exposed above the surface.

This storm-sewer, and the others that serve the city whenever the weather man gives us rain or snow, may have been built for scientific purposes, but as far as the kids in the neighborhood are concerned, its intended function plays a weak second fiddle to that of being a grand place for anything from an exhilarating game of "cowboy and Injun" to serving as a mortar for reducing sandstone to "face powder."

Air Corps Reservists Choose Full Fees Rather Than Credit
In conjunction with the announcement of the ordering to active duty of all Army Aviation Cadet Enlisted Reservists, Laurence Woodruff, registrar, announced Tuesday that the reservists might withdraw immediately with no credit and a full refund of the incidental fees or (he emphasized) they might remain in school through Tuesday, Feb. 16, and draw one-fourth credit with a refund of one-half the incidental fee.
In addition, the University authorities are urging all students so affected to remain in school for one more week in order to obtain credit for the work done so far this semester.
Although, on the surface, this attitude may seem almost hypocritical, it really is not. The announcement is in line with the plan published at the beginning of this semester. It is unfortunate that the reserves are being called up at a time when they seem to be faced with a choice between one-half of their incidental fees or one-fourth credit. In the short space of a week and a half, it would seem, they must lose twenty dollars if they wish to remain in school. Many students, balancing fees against credits, have already dropped out or are planning to drop out.
In reality the University can do nothing else. No college or university may give credits without the payment of fees. In its desire to be generous in the matter of credits, the University must penalize the reservists in regard to fees.
It is to the reservist's best welfare to secure what credits he can get now. After the war is over, there will be a rush to finish college and to find a place in business and industry. Those three or four credits may mean the difference between being able to finish in two semesters instead of three, or four semesters instead of five. One semester may mean the difference between success or failure in one's chosen profession or business.
It is unfortunate, also, that the adjustment between fees and credits cannot be made more equitably. Perhaps more reasonable would be an arrangement whereby three-fourths of the fees are returned and the remaining fourth exchanged for one-fourth credit. Although it is true the expenses of the University are, for all practical purposes, the same for the student who remains in the University for four weeks or the whole semester, one week should make little difference.-J.G.
Stassen's Post-War Police Plan Is Different, But Not Fool Proof
Governor Harold Stassen of Minnesota has joined the ground ranks of the post war planners in presenting an outline for world organization to maintain permanent peace. Stassen's plan—based, as most others, on a liberal concept of internationalism—has one distinguishing characteristic.
The extreme idealists among the post-war planners advocate placing the entire military strength of the world in an international police force and eliminating the military forces and military production of the individual nations.
Just Wondering
If Russell Wiley and his band aren't entitled to a big hand for the way they pinched hit for Governor Stassen Wednesday morning.
Governor Stassen, on the other hand, is realist enough to realize that such a procedure could not immediately work. He knows too well that the American people would never willingly give up the U.S. navy. Instead, he proposes that the United Nations Legion, a world police force consisting of air, naval, and land forces, be backed by the armed strength of the individual United Nations. The governor said we should not place all reliance on the international police force system-at least, not yet.
Such a supplementary world army as he proposes, however, would also bring its problems. How could such a group achieve the sense of unity without which it could not be effective? Where would the manpower come from? Where would they be trained, and by whom? Which nation or nations would furnish the munitions?
Governor Stassen has taken a great load on his young and wide shoulders by stepping into the guessing game of world planning. We admire him for his grit in tackling the problem with a liberalism that is probably offensive to the isolationist elements.
But we hope Governor Stassen can answer questions like the ones above. He will hear lots of them.
Walter Winchell and Drew Pearson, the New York Post claims, were censored in recent broadcasts by Blue Network authorities because their scripts contained criticism of U.S. senators in connection with the prosecution of 33 seditionists.

Rock Chalk Talk By JIMMY GUNN
That's their story: There seems to have been a veritable epidemic of "accidents" in the last few days, two instances of which came to the attention of your columnist.
Rosemary Schrepfer has been seen around the campus lately sporting a black eye. Her story, strange as it seems, is that she wanted to get up at 4 o'clock in the morning to study (whatever one studies at 4 o'clock in the morning) and set her alarm clock accordingly. When, at 4 o'clock, her clock rang, she was so startled that she fell out of the top bunk of a double-decker bed and received the black eye in the process.
The next story is also connected with the top bunk of a double-decker bed. (Perhaps it will replace the doorknob.) Oliver Hughes suffered a broken arm Sunday night. He fell out of the top bunk of a double decker bed.

Hill society: It is reported that Wolves Unlimited is growing by leaps and bounds.
The president, Earl Pickerill, will be leaving soon with the rest of the Army Air Corps reserve.
The organization is thinking of starting a women's auxiliary to be known as the Werewolves. They are trying to persuade Averell Keroher to become president and organizer of the affiliation, Averell, unfortunately, has her own society, "the society for the collection and preservation of 4-F's."

Why don't you get a horse: Prof. L. N. Flint, of the journalism department, was stuck up on the Hill when his car would go only backwards. How he made it down the Hill with the recalcitrant vehicle is a mystery, but he managed to get it to a garage. Now the thing will go in every gear but second.

The spice of life: I talked recently to the Sage of Mt. Oread (sometimes referred to as "ole man Mose"). The weather was spring-like, and the old man turned to thoughts of love. I waited patiently while he ruminated, for I knew that soon pearls of wisdom would fall from his lips. I was not mistaken. He spoke to me of marriage, and these were the epigrams he threw to me:
"Marriage and hanging," said the Sage, "go by destiny."
"Marry your sons when you will," said the Sage, "your daughters when you can."
"If marriages are made in heaven," said the Sage about a mutual friend, "he had but few friends there."
"Marriage," concluded the Sage, shaking his head sagely, "makes strange bedfellows."
No Career For Jill Peck Army Her Life
They call her "the army brat" and she simply hates the navy. That's Jill Peck, Pi Phi, and the daughter of a colonel in the U. S. Army at Fort Leavenworth.
Born in Hawaii, Jill can boast of having lived in twelve states and also includes Panama on the list. She claims the army is the only life for her and plans to marry back into the army after she has worked for a year or two. ketball is best to watch, she claims. Jill especially enjoys the bridge tournaments held at the Union. Liber Sandhagen's Postur
Jill is majoring in chemistry and hopes to get a job in industrial chemistry upon graduation. She still insists that she is not a career woman, and will go back into the army. On Dean's Honor Roll
Jill has been on the Dean's Honor roll every year since she has been here. She manages to take place in a great many activities in addition to her grades. Jill is point system manager of the WSGA council, business manager of WAA, intramural manager of Pi Phi, and also secretary of Pi Phi. Until about a month ago, Jill was major of the CVC. She has been on the YWCA council, a student advisor, and writer. She now handles women's intramural articles for the Jayhawker magazine.
She prefers golf to any other sport,
that is, in which to participate. Bas-
Jill likes Carl Sandberg's poetry, Spencer Tracy's acting, and Italian Spaghetti. She also enjoys going to the Union for a coke. If she has any leisure time, Jill wanders up to the gym and gets into a fast game of bad-minton. Outside of Hill activities, Jill prefers to attend the plays in the Music hall in Kansas City, Mo.
Jill is really saving for the war effort. She puts her hair up with colored cloth instead of bobble pins. She is a hard worker as evidenced by determination to get the ten points needed to get a letter in WAA. She walked ten miles in one of the blizzards this winter to get those points.

Every Day A Peak Day Laundries Rush
By Chuck Elliott
That seemingly unapproachable zenith of all business men, too much trade, has at last been reached by a Lawrence industry. That is in the laundry business.
The only things which the Lawrence commercial laundry owners are sure of these days are "we've got too much business, every day is a peak day,and
every day is a peak day, and we're so far behind schedule we'll never get caught up."
This situation is a far cry from the struggling days of the thirties when the laundries were begging for anything washable to swell their receipts. Now days they have so much business that one firm is going to start turning away business as soon "as the house can be brought down to normal." Tuesday Has Heaviest Load
Not only has the volume increased beyond all believable proportions, but the busiest time of the week has shifted also. The old American exception that "Monday is wash-day" never was true in the commercial laundry business. In the late thirties Monday was the lightest day of the week and the rush increased each day until the peak was reached on Friday.
At that time the belief was that society needed clean clothes for weekend excursions and consequently the big day was Friday. But that was before gas rationing and when one-day service was still in existence and not just a myth.
More Than Eleven Tons Each Day
There is no top day now, owners declare, for each day finds too much being brought to the office. Reluctantly, however, they will surmise that Tuesday is possibly the day with the heaviest load.
More than Eleven Tons Each Day Over eleven tons of soiled clothes are brought to the laundry each day as compared with two tons in 1939. Most of this tonnage is returned as rough dry although more actual pieces receive the "finish" treatment.
All of this work is done by machines tended by women, with the exception of the few men who operate the large washing machines. More than 180 people are employed by the laundries each day although, with the amount of business that is now being handled, a working crew of 240 would be a more normal complement. In 1939 seventy-seven persons received year-round employment. Their salaries amounted to $66,000 for the year, whereas the payroll exceeds that figure within 16 weeks now. At the present rate the yearly payroll will amount to more than $225,000.
After being brought to the laundry, the clothes are weighed and then sorted as to the type of material and the degree of soil. The various groups are then placed in mesh bags with a metal label. Water Changed Eleven Times
The clothes are first inserted in a tap-water break with the temperature about 70 degrees. From this step they go through four rinses, three suds, and three more breaks, making a total of 11 complete changes of water during the washing operation which, on the average, lasts from 50 to 60 minutes.
Extremely soiled clothes require continuous washing for more than 80 minutes. The highest temperature of the water is 180 degrees for white clothes while the colored materials are never immersed in water exceeding 120 degrees. Approximately 200,000 gallons of water are used every day. All of this water has first been softened by a sand process.
Whirling extractors, employing the principle of centrifugal force, are employed instead of wringers to avoid wear and tear on clothes. After a few minutes in these machines clothes are ready for the finishing machine. Handkerchiefs are pressed evenly in a special machine which completes the work in one operation.
Precautions Against Brittleness
Three per cent moisture is left in all articles to prevent the clothes from becoming too brittle. A huge flat work iron operated by young women irons all sheets and other flat work. Four machines make up the shirt unit which give each shirt a "brand new" appearance without the use of a hand iron.
Better than 1700 bundles are wrapped and delivered each day even though the laundries continually run five to eight days behind schedule. Shirts make up the biggest single item with which the laundries deal, more than 65 shirts are given the "finishing" process hourly.
The main reason, of course, behind the huge increase in business is the Sunflower Ordnance Works defense plant. Another big factor is the Naval Training Station on the Hill which sends all the washing to commercial laundries. Still another contributing item is the large number of women holding jobs and not having time to do their washing as formerly.
The only thing about the laundry industry in Lawrence which hasn't changed is the number of trucks used to make pick-ups and deliveries. Seven trucks remain on the job and run between 11 and 16 hours daily, for six days each week. Only one stop is allowed at any one address during each day except at the Naval Station where calls are made upon each request of the commanding officer.

Rader tops, Marge and Jill are great friends, and perhaps Jill's personality can be more nearly summed up by this poem about her written by Marge Rader:

Tim Holt Follows Father Into U.S. Armed Forces
Hollywood, (INS)—Trading an actor's costume uniform for the khaki of the U.S. Army, actor Tim Holt, 23 yesterday headed for active duty in the air corps.
In one of his recent pictures, young Holt played a role he hated—that of a Nazi officer. He follows his actor father, Capt. Jack Holt, into the armed forces.
Legislature Has Workout On New Bills
Topeka (INS) — The Kansas legislature went to town today on a full calendar schedule of business. The Senate had approved today and ready for passage on third reading a bar integration bill to give the lawyers a closed shop organization in Kansas. The three representatives from Sedgwick county today joined in producing a bill to provide four-year terms for Wichita city officials beginning in 1945.
Representative Lake of Medicine Lodge introduced a bill to empower the state highway patrol to establish five radio stations in the state to be used for police calls only.
Representative Robert Grant Anderson, Oswego, the "preacher" member of the legislature, put in another bill today to put a crimp in the marrying business of probate judges. This measure would make it unlawful for anyone performing a marriage ceremony to sell a certificate of marriage.
The house committee on state affairs gave approval to a measure to allow out-of-state doctors to practice in Kansas during the war emergency under special permit.

Museum Idea Originated By Francis Snow in 1866
School started at the University 76 years ago, but Dyche museum was begun 10 days before school opened.
Ten days before the University was scheduled to open, Francis H. Snow, who had been hired as a professor in the newly founded institution, came to Lawrence to make preliminary arrangements before the open-?
cis H. Snow, who had founded institution, came to arrangements before the opening of school. The Rev. R. W. Oliver, rector of the Episcopal church of Lawrence and Chancellor of the University, at that time, told Professor Snow that nothing could be done until the opening day and suggested that the professor hunt game to pass away the time until school opened.
Professor Snow followed Chancellor Oliver's advice, and he became so interested in the birds of Kansas that he began to prepare a catalogue on them. As far as is known, Professor Snow was the first man in Kansas to become interested in ornithology.
After classes began at the University, Professor Snow organized a class in zoology and instituted an ornithological survey. Among one of Professor Snow's students was Lewis Lindsay Dyche. After studying with the professor and helping him to collect specimens, Mr. Dyche became so interested in natural history that he decided to devote his life to the study.
Mr. Dyche was made a professor

Lincoln's 144th Birthday Symbolizes U. S. Unity
Tomorrow will be the 114th anniversary of the birthday of Abraham Lincoln, sixteenth president of the United States. In a day when the United States is battling against the forces of international chaos, Lincoln symbolizes the day of victory on the battleground of national unity.
Born in a log cabin and rea. Lincoln never thought of his strictd or unfortunate because he was poor. He seems to have had led an extremely happy life as a youngster, and it was only when he grew up that he began to feel the effects of woe.
Lack of money notwithstanding, there were many country sports which he enjoyed to the full. He went swimming in the creek, fished with other boys, wrestled, jumped, and ran races at the noon rests.
At spelling matches the one who first began "choosing sides" always chose "Abe." Tradition says that he won so often he finally was ruled out of such contests altogether.
When Lincoln left home, several months after becoming 21 years of age, he went empty-handed. One of the first things he did after that was "to split 400 rail for every yard of brown jeans dyed with white-wall-out bark that would be necessary to make him a pair of trousers."
Moved To Salem
In 1832, Lincoln moved to New Salem, Ill., where he became acquainted with a girl named Ann Rutledge, then 19 years old. Lincoln himself was 23.
Apparently deserted by a man to whom she was afflanced, Miss Rutledge permitted Lincoln to court her. In 1934 they became engaged.
The possibility that she had wronged her former lover and that he might reappear, tortured Miss Rutledge's conscience, according to one of Lincoln's biographers, and wore upon her until she became ill. Lincoln was not allowed in the sickroom until shortly before she died, when the two spent an hour together in parting.
Death Causes Sorrow
Her death caused Lincoln great sorrow. One night he was sobbing and was begged by a friend to control his anguish.
"I cannot. The thought of the snow and rain on her grave fills me with indescribable sorrow." He told another friend, when speaking of Miss Rutledge's grave, "My heart buried there."
Later Lincoln became engaged to Nancy Hanks at Springfield, where he had gone as a member of the Illinois legislature. More than two years passed before they were married, during which it is thought that Lincoln tried to break the alliance but lacked the will power to do so.
In one letter he stated that he had lost confidence in his ability to make decisions and stick by them, with indirect mention of his engagement.
That Lincoln had not lost that ability is shown by the firmness of his stand during the first few months of his administration. His inaugural address is typical of his courage.
"In your hands, my dissatisfied

fellow-countrymen, and not in mine is the momentous issue of civil war
... You have no oath registered in heaven to destroy the government, while I shall have the most solemn one to 'preserve, protect, and defend it.'
Lincoln's years in the White House added to his sadness, for there one of his sons died, some of his closest friends denounced him as a madman, the war seemed to be unsuccessful, and enemies beset him everywhere.
Little wonder that some historians describe his assassination as a "wonderful blessing" for Lincoln, if not for his country.
Ryther Speaks To Topeka Club
At a suggestion of T. C. Rythe, director of the University press, the Togeka club of Printing House Craftsmen voted to recommend a standard for printing schools to the national organization Tuesday evening at the Togeka meeting.
Mr. Rythner spoke to the club on the subject of "How Shall Future Printers Be Trained?" Following the speech was a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the apprentice system in contrast to a course in schools.
Accompanying Mr. Ryther to Topeka for the meeting were Elmer Beth, associate professor of journalism; K. W. Davidson, director of information, and Dorwin Hart, linotype operator for the Kansan.
University of Wisconsin is the temporary home of 420 WAVES receiving radio code and communications training.
ISA Varsity To Hold Election Tomorrow
A president and four representatives-at-large will be elected at the ISA Varsity from 9 to 12 tomorrow night in the main lounge of the Memorial Union building. Bachmann and Pope's band will furnish the music.
Mary Gene Hall, retiring president, announced today that nonmembers who are with ISA dates will be admitted for 50c, although posters say 25c. ISA members must present membership cards.
Nominees for the presidency are Lila May Reetz, College freshman, and Ty Schuerman, sophomore in education.
Those nominated for representatives-at-large are Elizabeth Baker, College freshman; Gerald Dick, College sophomore; Ruth Krehbhl, College sophomore; Bertha Cummins, College sophomore; Esther DeBord, College junior; Harry Johnson, freshman engineer; Donald Germann, College sophomore; Pat Foster, College sophomore; Harlan Cope, College junior; Virginia Markley, College sophomore; and Scott Tidwell, College sophomore.
MUSEUM IDEA---during
(continued from page seven) mounting the larger mammals of the West in natural, life-like occupations against convincing back grounds of natural habitat. Over 100 mounted specimens were displayed in the Kansas building of the Chicago Worlds Fair in 1893. The exhibit included Surmanche, the famous survivor of the Custer fight, which is on display in the museum.
Attract Attention
The displays attracted so much attention that Professor Snow, then Chancellor of the University, took this occasion to ask the Legislature for an appropriation for a museum. In 1901, $75,000 was appropriated for the new building.
After Professor Dyche's death, the museum was officially named Dyche Museum in recognition of the contribution the ornithologist made to the University.
"Industrial Inspection" and "Fundamentals of Automotive Mechanics" are new war courses for women at Kent State University.

NUMBER 74
Draft Sounds Death Knell To Sports
Washington. — (INS)—The death knell of all big time college sports for the duration was sounding today as the army moved to "draft" many of the nation's leading schools within the next 90 days to train highly skilled technicians for the armed services.
The disclosure came from Brigadier General Joe N. Dalton, assistant chief of staff in charge of personnel for the services of supply and his aide Col. Herman Buekema, director of the Army Specialized Training program. The army seeks to train 150,000 high school and college students of draft age in 1943 at 271 schools already named on a tentative list as those whose facilities will be taken over.
"I don't think our soldiers will have much time to indulge in big time football," Gen. Dalton said. "That brings up the question of participation in college athletics. The army is not sending its soldier students there to participate in big college athletics."
Peace Survey Is Nearing Finish
Members of the peace committee appointed by the Chancellor are writing the completion of their survey of student government at colleges and universities of the middle west, it was announced today. The committee has spent the past two months making this survey in an effort to determine student rights and to make recommendations for the revision of University legislation.
The recommendations will be presented to the Chancellor in the near future and after consideration will,be acted upon by Hill governing bodies.
Laurence Woodruff, registrar, is chairman of the committee and other members are F. E. Kester of the physics department; Raymond Nichols, executive secretary to the Chancellor; Maude Elliott of the romance language department; Vernon McKale and Arthur Nelson, representatives of the MSC; and Marjorie Rader and Jill Peck, representatives of the WSAG.
Require Additional Forces
Chicago—(INS)—Paul V. McNutt, War Manpower Commissioner, said yesterday "The expansion of the war production program and the increase in the strength of the armed forces will require the services of an additional 6,400,000 persons during 1943."
Bird Skeleton Collection Is Lent to California
Part of the North American bird skeleton collection was sent last week from Dyche museum to the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.
The collection of approximately 8,000 skeletons is the largest of its kind in the world, according to a report made by the National museum. The skeletons are sent to different colleges in the United States for use in classes on birds.
Lawmakers Go At Full Speed In Both Houses
Topeka, (INS)—The Kansas legislature observed Lincoln's birthday by working full speed today, interrupting its regular labors only for a brief service in honor of the Great Emancipator.
Farmers in the Cheyenne Bottoms who refused to allow their land to be used for a federal state lake project today learned they will now have the property condemned, under the eminent domain law.
A bill passed by the senate to give the state Fish and Game Commission eminent domain powers was killed in the House early yesterday. Before the session adjourned yesterday the bill was reconsidered and passed. It was then sent to the governor for his signature.
Up before the legislature today was a measure which its sponsor says will prevent another Finney bond scandal. The proposal was submitted by Senator Barton Griffith, Topeka, a Republican.
The Senator's bill would guarantee that the state would be responsible for $20,000,000 worth of securities which insurance companies keep on deposit with the state.
President Will Speak Tonight
Washington, (INS) — The White House announced yesterday tha President Roosevelt will make a 20 minute "fireside chat" over all radio networks tonight at 8:30 CWT.
Washington, (INS) — Secretary of War Stimson said yesterday that United Nations forces will soon take the offensive in "heavy fighting," and warned that the nation may expect heavy casualties.
Big Losses Due Stimson Warns
Bondfield Forecasts Beveridge Plan Fight
Stimson's statement, made at a press conference, followed the lines of a prediction earlier in the week by Economic Administrator James F. Byrnes, that the United Nations would invade Europe this year.
He also said that promotion of Leiut. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower to a full generalship was for the purpose of giving him command of all United Nations forces in Africa, where the Allies are "consolidating their ground forces for an attack on Axis positions along the Mediterranean."
Subject of the President's talk, a White House spokesman said, will range from the Casablanca conference with Prime Minister Churchill to domestic issues and observance of the day—Lincoln's birthday.
"Freedom from want, the basis of the Beveridge report, must be won by faith, courage, and a sense of national unity over class distinction," declared Mrs. Margaret G. Bondfield yesterday.

Woodruff Reports Call Indefinite
No information concerning when students here enlisted in the Army Enlisted Reserve Corps will be called to active duty has been received yet, Dr. Laurence C. Woodruff, registrar, said today.
"We know that our boys in the army reserve are going to be called in the near future, but as yet we have no definite orders
London (INS) — A full description of Germany's newest fighting plane, the Messerschmitt 210, was released today following examination by Royal Air Force experts of one of the craft shot down over England.
Developed by the Germans to cope with American Flying Fortress bombers which have shot down a preponderant number of interceptors in flights over the Reich and occupied territory, the ME-210 is a fast, heavily-armed ship capable of doing 370 to 380 miles an hour at an altitude of 18,000 feet.
British Inspect Nazis' Answer To Fortresses
It carries a large supply of ammunition for long flights. In a recent Fortress attack on the Reich, German fighters pursued an American Fortress squadron across the North sea almost to the English coast.
The new Messerschmitt carries machine-gun blisters on both sides of the fuselage mounting 13-millimeter guns, equivalent to the 50-caliber batteries of the fortresses. These guns can be fired by remote control from the cockpit which has been enlarged to carry the pilot, navigator and gunner.
Peace, Domestic Problems Discussed by Elliott
Attacking power of the new German fighter has been increased by mounting two machine guns and two 20-millimeter guns in the nose. It also carried 220-pound bombs, and wing brakes permit its use as a dive bomber. The two-engine fighter, which is heavily armored, has a range of 1,000 miles. It is believed to be in full production and in action on all important fronts.
Reconstruction problems were discussed last night by Dr. Mabel Elliott, associate professor of sociology, at a meeting of the Lawrence branch of the American Association of University Women at the home of Mrs. W. J. Baumgartner.

Professor Elliott discussed the effect peace will have on domestic problems. She also told how these problems will be related to those that are international in scope.
from the headquarters of the Seventh Service Command in Omaha," Dr. Woodruff asserted. "Until those orders come all our students can do is sit tight and continue with their classwork," he said.
A wire story received here yesterday from Washington made the statement that all men in the army reserve would be called to active duty "within two weeks at the end of various current college semesters." Army reservoirs in some of the colleges in the Seventh Service Command have already received their orders, Dr. Woodruff learned through a phone call yesterday from Colonel Briggs of the command headquarters in Omaha. Kansas University is in the Seventh Service Command.
"I expect the effective dates of call for army reservists here to come sometime between the 1st and 20th of March," Dr. Woodruff stated. "At any rate, we've been assured by authorities in Omaha that boys in the Enlisted Reserve Corps will be given ample notice before they are called." Ample notice, he said, probably means two weeks' notice.
The registrar advises all men in the AERC to remain in school at least until definite orders are received. If they remain here it is likely that all the men here will be allowed to take their basic training in a group, he said. Otherwise they will probably be called individually and be inducted through Selective Service.
Monday Is Last Day To Submit Pictures
Monday is the deadline for entering photographs in the annual Jayhawker beauty queen contest. John Conard, editor, said today.
Senor Alberto Vargas, known to Esquire readers as Varga, will choose the Jayhawker queen from the fifteen contestants remaining after a local board of judges passes judgement on all the entries.
In his 20 year career, Varga has drawn 25,000 sleek and sophisticated women who have existed only in the mind of their creator. From his large staff of models, Varga selects those with the best physical and facial features and then draws a composite girl.
Varga was recently called to Hollywood to publicize MGM's "Du-Barry Was A Lady." Using all the girls on the movie set, he painted a composite Varga girl who then ap-

'Point' Rationing To Change Menus
If present plans of the Office of Price Administration are carried out, every civilian in the United States will get "war ration book two" sometime during the last week of this month. University students, in the majority, will not be directly concerned in the use of their books, but menus and meals may suffer drastic changes as a result $ ^{®}$
of "point" rationing.
The new books will have coupons numbered and printed in two colors. The color will be used to determine for what kind of product the stamp may be used, and the number, or point value,will determine the amount of the article the purchaser may get.
Point rationing, according to the OPA, is needed to ration groups of related commodities, when some items in the groups are likely to become scarcer than others. "Related" commodities mean those that can be substituted for one another in actual use.
In cereals, for example, a family can eat branflakes, cornflakes, oatmeal, or a dozen other products. (Cereals are plentiful now, however, and it is not expected that they will be rationed.) These could constitute a related commodities group.
An item that is plentiful will be given a low point value, and one that is scarce will be assigned a high value. Thus a purchaser will look for point bargains, tending to create a demand for plentiful goods with low values. If an article sells faster than expected, the coupon value can be raised whatever amount is necessary to adjust supply to demand.
In the book will be 48 points for the first group of commodities to be rationed, which probably will be meat and meat substitutes. Value of stamps will run eight, five, two, and one points, comparable to denominations of money.
But don't expect a grocery to hand over groceries in return for coupons. It will still take money.
Retailers will use the coupons they receive from consumers in ordering from wholesalers.
Annual ISA Election Varsity Is Tomorrow
The Independent Student Association will have a joint election and dance tomorrow night from 9 to 12 in main lounge of the Memorial Union building. Bachmann and Pope's band will play for the varsity.

Willkie, Bricker GOP Favorites For President
Washington. Feb. 11, (INS)
Washington, Feb. 14, (NIH) Wendell Willkie, GOP standard bearer of 1940, and Gov. John W. Bricker of Ohio, today were regarded as "favorites" for the Republican presidential nomination next year, although former president Herbert Hoover looms in the background as a remote possibility.
This is the consensus among Republican legislators on Capitol Hill. Most Republicans say Willkie and Bricker must be eliminated before any other possibility — including Hoover—can be given serious consideration.
Further in the background are Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, of New York, Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio, Gov. Dwight H. Green of Illinois, and Gov. Earl Warren of California. Still further, in the rear are Gov. Harold E. Stassen of Minnesota, Gov. Leverett Salfonnitt of Massachusetts, and Sen. Charles L. McNary of Oregon.
Republican interest in their 1944 nominee was heightened when Sen. Burton K. Wheeler, Montana Democrat, announced he would bolt his party if its nominee in 1944 is "un-satisfactory." And Wheeler named former president Hoover as the "strongest candidate" the GOP can nominate.
Republicans generally feel Willkie is an out-and-out candidate for the 1944 nomination. They expect him to enter primaries. He is rather unpopular on Capitol Hill, however, and will have his opponents in all sections of the country.

Rides Again
Los Angeles, Feb. 11 (INS) — Police officers at central jail bugged their eyes and scratched their heads cynically today when they read this notation on the central jail police blotter:
"Jesse James, 24, arrested on suspicion of stealing a horse." It was no gag. Jesse James himself, from Muskogee, Okla., actually was in custody.
Resplendent in typical cowboy regalia, high-heel boots, sombrero, checked shirt and chaps—young James had been sought for several days on charges of an Upland, Cal., riding academy that he had rented a horse and failed to return it.
"Don't know what happened to the hoss." James told police. "Took a few drinks and when I woke up the hoss was gone."
Waste Of Newsprint Causes Congressmen To Protest in House
Washington (INS) — Congressmen who are now waging a fight against newsprint cuts, today told the House that the treasury yesterday mailed out heavy paper containers weighing three-fourths of a pound "with tin caps on each end" containing two graphs on sale of war bonds weighing less than an ounce.
Rep. Satterfield (D) Va., and Shafer (R) Mich., both took the floor to weigh the containers before the members, several of whom rose to say they also had received a similar carton in their morning mail.
"This extravagant waste of paper and tin by the bureaucrats could well be termed criminal," Shafer shouted. "God knows how many thousands were mailed out to the country."

Actor Robert Taylor Sworn into the Navy
The actor will shortly go to the naval flying school at Corpus Christi, Tex., for four months advanced training before he starts wearing the navy gold wings.
Taylor, at 31, is too old for combat flying, but with 110 solo hours in his log book, he probably will be assigned to instructing or naval ferrying work.
Mrs. Houdini Dies On Eastbound Train
Mrs. Beatrice Houdini, 77-pound widow of Harry Houdini, famous magician, died today on a New York bound train, within 24 hours of the death of Mrs. Howard Thurston, widow of Houdini's successor in reputation.
Mrs. Houdini had insisted on returning to New York although she had been critically ill several weeks in a rest home. Too weak to walk, Mrs. Houdini had been carried to the train where she was placed in a berth and an oxygen mask applied.
After failure of attempts by Mrs. Houdini to contact her husband in the spirit-world, as they had agreed upon, she had come to the conclusion that there is no "hereafter."

Editor Carl Brown Dies At Atchison
Carl J. G. "Snort" Brown, 57, editor of the Atchison Globe since 1927 and writer of the daily column of comments called the "Snort Column," died last night in an Atchison hospital after an illness of more than a month.
In gathering information for the Atchison Globe, Mr. Brown would walk along the street every day, and followed many of the practices of the late Ed Howe, former publisher of the Globe. He was a large man of six feet, two inches in height and weighed 230 pounds.
Mr. Brown had been on the University campus several times in recent years attending newspaper conferences, and his critical and snappy comments from the "Snort Column" have often been topics of class discussion, especially in the journalism department.
Mr. Brown was born in Beloit, Kans., Sept. 3, 1886, attended school in Atchison, and had a part-time job on an Atchison paper which has since been suspended. His first job on the Globe began in 1907 at which time he went to work as a type-setter, make-up man, and reporter.
He had worked on the Globe since that time except in 1926 and 1927 when he published the Ida Grove, Iowa, Record, a semi-weekly, and established the Amarillo, Texas, Globe.
Betty Coulson, College graduate in '41 was on the campus today gathering material for a story on the effect of the war on the University. She is now on the reporting staff of the Kansas City Star.

Jayhawkers Worry Over NU, I-State
Saturday
Kansas State vs. Oklahoma at Norman.
Kansas vs. Nebraska at Lincoln.
Monday
Oklahoma vs. Missouri at Columbia.
Kansas vs. Iowa State at Ames.
Beset by coming army calls, the absence of Charlie Black and contending Oklahoma, the Jayhawk cage squad leaves today for northern games against Nebraska Saturday and Iowa State Monday.
Powerful Oklahoma also plays two games. The Sooners will be heavily favored over second-division Kansas State and Missouri. The Aggies have lost five conference games while Missouri has a two and two record.
Evans Takes Over
Although Black is still in Watkins hospital with pneumonia the Jayhawkers are favored over their road opponents on the strength of Guard Hey Evan's rebounding and Otto Sehnellbacher's basket eye. High-scoring Evans, rated by Coach Phog Allen as supplying 40 per cent of Kansas' defensive rebounding, will have short Husker men opposing him.
Quarterback John "Sad-face" Herscher provided the tonic in Kansas rcmp over Iowa State. The senior center's ball handling and dribbling has become the Jayhawk's most dangerous offensive threat.
Allen Experiments
Coach Allen has been experimenting with Sparky McSpadden, Max Kissell and Hoyt Baker at Black's spot. If McSpadden's short stature

John Thompson is Nebraska's leading scorer with an 8.5 Big Six average. Other leaders are Bob Heinzelman, 6.7, and John Bottorf, 5.5. The Huskers are handicapped by lack of height. Center Max Young is reported to be the only cager over six feet.

Wiley Adds New Tune Oh, Kansas' by Carey To Song Collection
"Oh, Kansas" is the latest addition to Russell L. Wiley's collection of Kansas songs.
Henry L. Carey, well-known Kansas writer and father-in-law of Norman Plummer, ceramist in the department of geology, wrote and published this song which is being played on WIBW's Kansas Round-up program.
Mr. Carey had the tune of this song "running through his head," several years before he had a member of the Dodge City Observatory of Music put it down on sheet music, he explains. "Oh, Kansas" is a ballad which tells of Kansas and its rural life.

Plaque Is Presented To Kansas Governor
A gold plastic plaque mounted in a red plush-lined plastic case which Kansas won for salvaging the most scrap metal per capita of all the states of the union, was presented to Governor Andrew Schopeel last night in behalf of the people of Kansas at a dinner in Topeka given by Byron Grousley, chairman of the scrap drive.
More than 142,000 tons of scrap metal, an average of 164 pounds per person, was gathered by the people of Kansas.
D. A. Dimitry, chief of the salvage section of the War Production board, congratulated Kansas newspapermen on their well-directed and complete drive last fall.
There will be a more intensive drive soon to get every ounce of copper because of the critical shortage of that metal, according to Sam Mitchell, regional director of the salvage campaign.
The campaign was begun last September by a special newspaper committee named to get all available scrap into the nation's scrap pile by November.

The two teams will play again to see which Division III team gets in the playoffs. The Psi's defeated the Fiji's 33-30 in scheduled play.
Pi K A Bill Atwell scored all of his team's 10 points in the first half while each of the Psi cagers contributed to the 13 points collected in the first half.
In the second half Atwell was held to one fielder while teammate Larry Hickey sifted seven points through the net.
The Psi's displayed teamwork, feeding Gene Olson for 12 points. Clayton Kye and Ellis Nicole turned in good performances for the winners.
Sigma Nu dogged the Phi Gam's all the way in the other crucial game of the evening, but never quite caught McSpadden and company. The Hinshaw boys, Wally and Curtis, of the Eijil's used their angular frames to good advantage as they scored 10 and eight points and edged out the smaller Sigma Nu's at the backboard.
Walt Michaelis and Glenn St. Aubyn held up the scoring for the losers with eight points each.
Kappa Sigma came from behind to edge out Teke by one point, 25-24. The score was 9-7, Kappa Sig at the half but in the second period the Tekes jumped ahead and were leading by four points with three minutes to go. The Kappa Sigs pulled a couple of late goals out of the hat for victory. Lawrence Ochs led the Kappa Sig attack with nine points.
Larry Stream packed all the dynamite as the Sig Ep's routed DU, 45-19. Sig Ep led all the way as Stream racked up 24 points.

Bus Business Is Brisk
Keep 'Em Rolling
By Maurice Barker
Typical of many war-time businesses, the Rapid Transit Company is finding itself in the difficult situation of greater-than-ever demand and a less-than-ever capacity to meet and maintain an efficient system of transportation in a crowded war-boom city. Yet many are depending on the buses to get them to their jobs.
Though traffic has now increased to an all-time high for the
any, its troubles have in-*
Though traffic has now in company, its troubles have increased on the same parallel. One of the first problems to face the management was the maintenance of an adequate labor force, which has proved a headache to all Lawrence merchants. With the opening of the Sunflower Ordnance Works, the manager lost his entire crew to the plant. The problem has been a continuous one until there have now been seven complete turnovers of the labor staff, though the army has taken more of the company's men than has the plant.
Tires, Gas A Problem
The rationing of gas and tires is of much more importance to J. J. Wilson, manager of the bus company, than to the average motorist. The rationing of tires has not been too much of a problem, since the ration board realizes the importance of the company's work and have been lenient with the supply. Gasoline, however, has been more difficult to obtain, and the company has to operate on 111 gallons a day this year, though they must run further if they are to meet the schedule demands. Replacement of broken parts often requires several days before they can be obtained.
War workers have not been the sole cause of the company's extra load, though they have been an important one. University students still proved the heaviest traffic, and the reopening of Haskell and the city schools has noticeably increased the number of riders. Four buses are regularly operated in the city, and extras are sent out on the heavier routes at times such as morning and evening, when the traffic is heavier.
evening, when the traffic is heavier Began in 1909
The Rapid Transit Company began operating in Lawrence in 1909, with streetcars providing the transportation. The company came under the present manager in 1935, though buses had replaced the streetcars in the meantime. From 1935 until 1940 the amount of business from year-to-year would not range five per cent either way from the previous year.
However, in 1940 motorists began to place more value on their cars, and in the next two years there was a steady increase in the amount of business. In the six-weeks period from the first of June to the middle of July, 1942, business took a sudden jump of nearly 30 per cent and has stayed at that level since that time.
Exact figures on the number of passengers carried annually by the company are not available, but events have made the Company a

St. Louis, (INS) — The controversy over the mustache of Joseph Wishnack, 46, of St. Louis, was officially at an end yesterday and so was the mustache.
Man Wins Acquittal, Loses His Mustache In St. Louis Trial
Wishnack was acquitted Wednesday by a circuit court jury of a charge of assault with intent to kill in the case of Victor Pudlowski, 31, after Wishnack testified he slashed Pudlowski's throat nine months ago because the man taunted him about his small black mustache and called him "Hitler."
Appearing in court without the mustache, Wishnack pleaded self-defense and th jury returned a verdict of "not guilty."

Allies March On To Bizerte To Rout Axis
By International News Service
Allied armies in Tunisia today kept up the drive to oust the Axis from their last African stronghold and reportedly scored an eight-mile advance in a sudden offensive on the Mateur sector, 20 miles southwest of the port of Bizerte.
As General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Allied Commander-in-Chief took over full command of the Tunisian campaign, the British eight army was reported battling the Afrika Corps 65 miles within the border.
Nazi Field Marshal Rommel abandoned his tactics of retreat and sent tanks and motorized units against the advancing British army.
The Russian offensive smashed ahead in eastern Europe where Axis armies continued their retreat westward toward the Dnieper river line, running from Kiev to the Black Sea.
Russians Smash Ahead
Stockholm reports said Red armies were within six to ten miles of Kharkov and were laying a heavy artillery barrage on the great industrial city.
Japanese invasion forces in the southwest Pacific suffered continual defeat as Australian jungle fighters under the command of General Douglas MacArthu beat off enemy attacks in the Wau district and forced them to fall back on Mubo, only 10 miles south of Salamaua.
The navy reported in Washington today that American planes are continuing their aerial offensive against Japanese positions in the central Solomons and that in two attacks on Feb. 11 they started fires in the target area.

Cash Pledge System of Donations Would Eliminate Hill Charity Drives
Another drive is about to start on the Hill, and students again will dig into their pockets, as they have done so many times during the past year. Only this contribution will not be so large as the last one, and the last one was not so large as the one before that. Each drive receives diminishing returns.
Students on the whole are a generous lot, and they don't mind giving to a worthy cause but to give and give and give to cause after cause after cause—it get's monotonous.
Is there no remedy for this situation? Cornell University found the answer to its similar problem with the cash-and-pledge-donation system. In this method, the student gives what cash he can at the beginning of the school year and pledges whatever more he feels he should, payable within the ensuing month. A painless way of treating sororities and fraternities is to have the members' pledges put on the next month's housebill.
A similar plan could be instituted here at the University, but the machinery would have to be set up this spring if the donation system were to function next year. The likely time for the initial donation would be within a month after the fall semester begins, allowing a little time for students to refill depleted bank accounts after paying fees. A week could be allotted to the gathering of the cash offering and at that time the student could sign a card pledging a further amount payable with the next month.
All this would take place before the usual time for any of the drives to take place, and the organizations would be assured of a bigger contribution than usual, for each organization which would sponsor a drive on the Hill would receive a fair share of the money, the exact partitioning to be decided by a committee of faculty members and students, appointed by the Student Councils and the University Senate.
Payment of the pledge could be enforced by withholding grades at the end of the semester in the same way the University handles all other debts. The student would undoubtedly be only too glad to pay these two times and, for the rest of the year, be free from solicitation for donations. He could then look at some mention of the Red Cross or Community Chest and think of its service instead of "How soon and how much will I have to come across?"
The organizations will also profit by this system of donations. Their worries about making the quota and setting up publicity and collection machinery would be over. Instead, all their time could be devoted to increasing the service and benefits they render the community and nation.
The cash and pledge donation system seems to have all the points in its favor. All it needs is to have the Councils and University Senate undertake the project.—J.M.
Germany Is On the Defensive But Is Not Yet Defeated

Germany's fear of an Allied invasion of Europe.
Yesterday Prime Minister Churchill told the House of Commons that the Casablanca conference scheduled an Allied invasion of the continent of Europe for sometime in the next nine months. Earlier in the day, Stockholm reported that German soldiers were taking up defensive positions in fortified areas of Western Europe, because their leaders believed an invasion was imminent.
Shortly after the Stalingrad defeat, the Nazis announced that their lines were being shortened in Russia because of transportation difficulties. No other explanation was given for their retreat.
Recent German reverses in Russia and the apparent desire to hold only the strongest points of previous conquests may indicate that the Nazis are fighting a delaying action rather than a battle to hold all points.
It has long been predicted that when Germany found her battlefronts becoming too hard to hold,when she began to suffer military reverses,she would pull in her armies closer to Germany and defend the already conquered territory.
If she has decided that this time has come, that she must prepare for an invasion, to defend herself she must have more men on her western front where the invasion is most likely. These men logically can come only from the Russian front.
So, don't be surprised if in the next few weeks Stalin's armies continue to take with breathtaking ease and swiftness cities and territories which they lost a yard at a time. Germany is not yet defeated.-W.H.

Rock Chalk Talk
Those dangerous moments: Such was the crush on the bus that travels from the top of the Hill to the foot of the city that Joseph Yager, 1111 W. 11th, struggling through the sardine-packed masses, gave a sigh of relief once he had cleared himself.
Said Joe, clutching his briefcase, "I almost lost my grip."

impossibilities: Gathered at the A O Pi house were Jane Reid, Dolores Grosenbacker, and Dolores' boy friend, Lionel Cherry. Upon discovering that Jane was an artist, Lionel suggested that she draw him a Petty girl. Girl-friend Dolores offered to model for Jane, but Jane shook her head.
"It wouldn't work," said she. "You haven't any white telephone."

Great Scott!: The roll was being called the other day in Prof. E.B. Dade's Business Statistic's class, Claudine Scott's name was called and the deep masculine voice of Bob Shubar answered. "Voice changing, Claudine?" ventured Professor Dade.
Just the thing I wanted: Juanita Bowman received a belated Christmas package the other day. In it were a size 3 child's sweater and a pair of small pajamas with "ABC" printed on them. Juanita figures that she has a nephew in Arkansas who has just received a pair of window drapes and a "sloppy Joe" sweater.

The spice of life: I saw the sage of Mt. Oread again yesterday. This was the second time the bearded hermit had come out of seclusion for several years, and I was much surprised. Perhaps it was the unseasonable weather that called him out (I sometimes suspect that, like the bear, he hibernates and, like the duck, flies north in the summer). The weather was balmy, however, the sap was running free. After a long while, the old man broke the silence like a fragile cinnacea vase.
"Love of wit," quote the Sage, "makes no man rich."
"Love thy neighbor," continued the Sage, "but pull not down thy hedge."
"Love," meditated the Sage, "will creep where it cannot go."
"Love," added the Sage, "being jealous, makes a good eye look asquint."
"Love, knavery, and necessity," suggested the Sage, "make men good orators."
"Love, a cough, and the itch," muttered the Sage, "cannot be hid."
"Love does much," concluded the Sage, shaking his head sagely, "but money does more."

He stopped in the Vickers Gift shop and observed that the card racks had been filled three times—everything even resembling a valentine had been sold. The woman in charge revealed that boys were more serious than girls when it came to selecting a valentine. Traditional for the boys was a large satin valentine for that special girl friend and one for mother. Girls Buy in Numbers
The girls would select anywhere from one to six special sweetheart cards. Boys spend more on valentines, but how can the girls spend much when they have so many to buy? Over a thousand cards left Vickers this week, as well as Indian jewelry and a few china dogs.
Dan's next stop was the Allison-Armstrong Flower shop. Here he found that more flowers were being wired longer distances than ever
before in the history of Lawrence. The sailors and other service men are wiring flowers to "the girls back home." Dan confided that most men prefer carnations, but send girls roses because the rose is supposed to be milady's favorite.
The Bell Music company had an entire show window filled with Dan's special brand of greetings, plus two large tables, but Dan's followers bought every card and a store of phonograph records and sheet music in honor of "the day." It was rumored that one girl bought three very special sweetheart cards. Sells Two Thousand
S. S. Kress and company sold approximately 2,000 valentines, which included a share of funny, serious and sentimental ones. The Cook Paint and Varnish company sold about $700 worth of valentines. They sold from 5 cent valentines to $2.00 ones, complete with a sweetheart

VALENTINE--with adding to the glassware or china set of their wives.
Ward's Flower Shop is still doing a rushing business on flowers to be wired, and local "colonial" bouquets. Gardenias, violets, and orchids, plus the traditional roses, are in great demand. One observation of the woman in charge was that the boys seldom forget mother when they are sending flowers to the girl friend. Mother always said men change after marriage, and according to the observations of the F. W. Woolworth company, the only valentines left in stock were those little bits of sentimentality reading "To My Wife, from Her Husband."
About 1500 missives of love passed across the counter at the Rexall Drug store in the forms of valentines, toilet articles, perfumes and other tokens of affection. The consensus here was that the man was getting left out, because the woman was buying only valentines.
Buys Candy
Wiedemann's Grill had one customer who brought four fraternity brothers along to buy four heart-shaped boxes of candy for him because he feared he couldn't buy more than one box, and he had five girl friends.
What in the world is the matter with the girls? Roberts' Jewelry store told Dan that the boys are buying, (again we say it), serious valentines and the girls the comical ones. Last year they noticed exactly the opposite state of affairs. The college men and the navy are also buying lockets, bracelets, and in the fashion of a major offensive, engagement rings.

Its surroundings include the Bay of Bliss, Ocean of Dreams, Adoration Cape, Isle of Happiness, Promise Pond, Lovers Lane, and the Great Wall of Affection.
Dan told us of the distrustful girls who bought more than one valentine for the special boyfriend. Only after coaxing did he break down and tell us one on a member of his own sex. He told us of the sailor who asked for a card reading, "To My Only Sweetheart." When the clerk brought out the special card, he replied, "I'll take five please." According to this sailor's heroic act, it appears he is fulfilling a double duty—fighting a war, and keeping up the morale of the American girl.

Father Escapes Torpedoed Ship
Grant Schirk, father of Hugh Schirk, freshman engineer, recently experienced a rescue from a torpedoed ship in a convoy. Mr. Schirk was employed as a first assistant engineer for the American Mail Co. While visiting his son last week, Mr. Schirk told of his experiences.
In four minutes from the time the torpedo struck, the boat which carried railroad rails and coal and on which Mr. Schirk was working hard sunk. He was saved in a lifeboat. Three other boats in the convoy were sunk, also.
Following his rescue, he spent 42 hours in the lifeboat before a Norwegian trump steamer picked him up, and brought him to Dutch Guinea. There he was issued army clothes from a South American army, and received passage to Trinidad.
After waiting two weeks, he found room on the Clipper to come to Miami, arriving Jan. 31, 23 days after his ship had been torpedoed.
Wire Brings Laughs In British House

"Sit: Your orders of August 15, 1942, have been fulfilled.
"The enemy and his impedimenta have been completely eliminated from Egypt, Cyrenaica, and Tripolitania.
"I now await your further instructions." Said Churchill to his vastly amused audience:
"Obviously I shall have to think of something else for Gen. Alexander to do. This was one of the matters we discussed in detail at Casablanca."

Madame Kai-Shek Will Visit Capital In Next Few Weeks
Washington, (INS) — The White House announced yesterday that the wife of the Chinese leader, Madame Chiang Kai Shek, would be a visitor at the White House either next week or the week following.
Madame Chiang, who came to the U. S. late last fall, has been a patient in a New York City hospital, seeking treatment for an injury she suffered five years ago when the automobile in which she was riding was machine-gunned by Japanese.
At the time of Madame Chiang's arrival in the United States, it was not announced that she would be a White House visitor when her health permitted. She also will appear before the House and Senate.

Mrs. Bondfield revealed that the Beveridge report will be discussed for three days on the floor of the House of Commons in the near future and that at that time the major criticisms to the plan will develop. She added that the plan will not be discussed as a bill at that time but that it will simply be treated as a report. Never Lost Faith
"When we were fighting for our lives the Labor people never lost their faith, and it has made us feel that these people are much more important than things," she said. She added, "We feel that we cannot do enough for the younger people and those who are climbing up the ladder."
Following the speech Mrs. Bondfield answered numerous questions and stated that action would probably be slow on this subject, but that eventually it would be adopted and given a trial in England.

KU Crushes Cornhuskers 56-24
Despite the impression that baskets ought to be few and far between from now on, Phog Allen's Kansas cage combine went systematically about the task of whipping Ad Lewendowski's Cornhuskers 56 to 24 on the Coliseum maples last night before 4,000, howling spectators. Burning the nets for 21 points, Kansas' Otto Schnellbacher unleashed a second-half barrage that completely overwhelmed the Huskers, who at halftime were trailing by a mere 27 to 17 margin.
Allen's artists swept to an early lead in the opening minutes before Husker "Moxie" Young dropped in three consecutive goals to spark his mates to a short-lived 12 to 11 lead midway in the first period. Mr. Schnellbacher, however, took up from there with teammate Dixon and manufactured a 27 to 17 lead over the Nebraskans.
and Dixon spearheading floor play the Kansans rode over the cold Huskers in the second canto. Footballer Ray and his mates molded an impregnable defense that the Huskers couldn't puncture. The Jayhawkers led 29 to 17, 38 to 20, and ended up with a 56 to 24 win in the second half of play.

AERC Men Not Enrolled Receive Call
Members of the Army Enlisted Reserve Corps that did not re-enroll this semester are being called to active duty. Many of the former students received orders yesterday to report for active duty February 20, according to Laurence Woodruff co-ordinator of military information.
A few student members of the AERC that paid their fees late will receive orders to report at the same time that the non-students receive their orders, but Woodruff has called the headquarters of the Seventh Service Command at Omaha and the orders should be rescinded before the students are to report. Students Called This Month
NUMBER 75
This calling of the reserves indicates that the student members of the AERC will be called to active duty sometime this month.
The personnel of the AERC enrolled in school will not suffer as a great loss as some of the other branches because those students in technical training will not be called at this time. Present plans indicate that these technical training students will be allowed to finish their respective courses before being called to the service.

In New Guinea
After hearing the news broadcast in which the story of the heroism of Dr. Tice was recounted, his parents wrote to the station, WIBW, for a script of the broadcast. In the story, Lt.

Houses Will Elect Separately
According to the new plan, in the spring each organized house affiliated with the National Pan-Hellenic Congress, and Watkins hall, Miller hall, and Corbin hall would elect one woman from its house to be its representative and member of the Executive Council. During the last week of February, women from the independents - at large wishing to become candidates for membership of the Executive Council would register their names with an independent election committee.
Five independent representatives-at-large would be elected from this list of candidates by the independent women. One of the representatives would be required to be a Negro member of the junior class at the time of her election, and she would be elected only by Negro women. Two of the five representatives-at-large would be required to be sophomores at the time of election; one would be required to be a junior, and one would be a freshman at the time of election. All of these representatives would be elected by the Australian ballot system the second week in March. Officers Elected By Council
The week following these general elections of the Greek representatives and the independents-at-large, the newly elected members of the Council would meet and conduct the election of officers within the Council itself. Nominations for officers would be from the floor and vote would be by secret ballot.

Lawson Will Confer With College Deans
Dean Paul B. Lawson will leave tomberrow afternoon to attend the annual meeting of deans of Liberal Arts Colleges from 22 state universities in the Mississippi Valley region. The meeting will be held in Lincoln, Neb., on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Unique about this meeting is that there are no formal papers, speeches, or discussions made. The deans meet informally to discuss what is happening in each university. The general subject for this year is information on the steps the liberal arts colleges are taking to adapt themselves to the war effort.
Washington, (INS)—Sen. Rufus C. Holman, Republican of Oregon, yesterday warned the American people to steel themselves for an expectancy of one million war casualties during the present year.
The state universities included in this conference are those ranging from Ohio to Wyoming, and from North Dakota to Texas.

First of all, is the WAAC really needed?
PETER MILLER
Emphatically yes! Already the President has authorized the Corps to expand from 25,000 to 150,000. The Air Forces and Signal Corps have asked for thousands of WAAC members to help with vital duties. Both Ground Forces and Services of Supply are asking for thousands more. Members of the WAAC may be assigned to duty with the Army anywhere - some are already in Africa and England.
Can the WAAC really help win the war?
MILITARY
The whole idea of the WAAC is to replace trained soldiers needed at the front. If American women pitch in now to help our Army (as women in Britain, Russia and China do), we can hasten Victory—and peace.
What can my college education contribute?
College training is important equipment for many WAAC duties too long to list. Cryptography, drafting, meteorology, laboratory work, Link trainer and glider instructing, for example. If you are a senior you may enroll at once and be placed on inactive duty until the school year ends. See your WAAC faculty adviser for more details.
But can I live comfortably on WAAC pay?
[Painting]
There are few civilian jobs in which you could earn clear income, as WAAC enrolled members do, of $50 to $138 a month — with all equipment from your toothbrush to clothing, food, quarters, medical and dental care provided. WAAC officers earn from $150 to $333.33 a month.

Some questions and answers of interest to every patriotic college woman
The drilling sounds so strenuous—!
T
Nonsense! The most beautiful women in America today are the girls in khaki! Some calisthenics and drilling are vital to general good health, discipline and tuned-up reflexes. After a few weeks at Fort Des Moines, Daytona Beach or the new Fort Oglethorpe training center you'll feel better than ever in your life.
Maybe I wouldn't like the work?
M
People are happiest doing what they do well. Every effort is made to place you where your service will count most toward final Victory. You may have some latent talent that will fill a particular need for work interesting and new to women—such as repairing the famous secret bombsight, rigging parachutes, operating the fascinating new electronic devices or driving an Army jeep over foreign terrain.
Then I have a chance to learn something new?
Yes, indeed. And the list of WAAC duties grows constantly. The training and experience you get in the WAAC may equip you for many stimulating new careers opening up for women.
100
What are my chances of promotion?
10
Excellent. The Corps is expanding rapidly and needs new officers, both commissioned and noncommissioned. Those who join now have the best chances. All new officers now come up through the ranks. If qualified, you may obtain a commission in 12 weeks after beginning basic training.
1.
What is the age range and other requirements?
Very simple. You may join if you are a U. S. citizen, aged 21 to 44, inclusive, at least 5 feet tall and not over 6 feet, in good health — regardless of race, color or creed. But the Army needs you now — don't delay. Total War won't wait!
Linguists needed. If you speak and write Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, French, German or Italian, see your local Army recruiting office now! You are needed for interpreting, cryptography, communications.

Women Taking Over Men Leaving
By Betty Lou Perkins
Approximately 250 men may leave the campus in the next few weeks.
At first the women at the University think this is bad. The fact that men may be gone is leaving the women with an unpleasant fear of spending many nights at home alone.
But this unpleasantry is no uneasiness. Now the University coed must prepare herself to take over the many positions left vacant on the campus. She must look about now, get in on the ground floor, and pick out a job which she feels she can handle. Then she must start to work.
Opportunity Knocks
For instance, at the Union build-
The work of filling men's positions need not wait until graduation from school. This work may begin now. Many men who once held important and necessary positions in the University extracurricular program are going. Many women realize that this is their golden opportunity and make the most of it.

In Journalism Too
The University Daily Kansan may, in a few weeks, need more reporters, editors, and managers. Journalism is now offering many opportunities for women where, before, the newspaper business was almost exclusively a man's field. Girls interested in journalism may now take a few primary courses and get the deserved recommendations for a job.
A Call For Help
Many of the positions which are open are indispensible and must be filled. Most of these positions are essential to the workings of the University. Women may consider themselves helping the war effort by taking these jobs and handling them in the best manner possible. A Challenge for Women
This situation is going to present opportunities to a woman she may never have again. The number of BWOCS will be increased twofold. New fields for women are open.

By MARY MORRILL
When John Frederick Buescher attained the momentous age of six, his father bought him a basketball. It seemed like a harmless toy little Johnny would tire of a few weeks after his birthday.
Ten years later when "little" Johnny was approaching six feet and sleeping and eating basketball in king-size quantities, Papa Buescher began to wonder just what he had started. Last month he knew. Looking out on a St. Louis basketball court with Mama Buescher and Little Brother Buescher it was plain to see that the sixth
Navy May Save College Athletics
New York, Feb. 1 (INS) — Jolted right down to their callows by the Army's decision outlawing intercollegiate sports for soldier-students it sends to college, campus athletic daddies are waiting hopefully for a kind word from the Navy.
According to reports seeping into New York from Washington important Navy men have been disposed to give students in their specialized training program a crack at intercollegiate competition.
Whether the Army's verdict will influence the Navy away from that decision remains to be seen.
Nothing that the Navy will do can serve to ameliorate the blow to intercollegiate athletics already delivered by the army. A majority of 281 colleges and universities picked by the joint committee for the selection of non-federal educational institutions will be subject to army regulation.
Thus, there is already every reason to be certain that 150 or so institutions will have little or no intercollegiate sports after this spring.
On the other hand, intercollegiate sports can be saved at about 100 other colleges and universities if the Navy wig-wags a go ahead.

Although the imminent army enlisted reserve call and a possible naval reserve call sometime during this year will affect nearly all of the men students, Henry will go ahead with football if it can be played this fall.
Dr. W. W. Davis, Athletic Board chairman, said that Kansas would carry on with athletics if it could. "No plans have been made as yet to discontinue athletic competition," he said.

Buescher, whose last year's nickname of Thin Man has been revised to Swisher, is a pretty normal sort of person in spite of his genius for ball handling. He is in love ("but deeply"), he wants to be a coach some day or do sports research, and he is uncommonly proud of his home town, Beardstown, Ill.,—a place that he considers ideal to be brought up in because when the river floods you can swim in the streets.

66 Women Take Aeronautics Course
Aircraft Companies Hire Women To Train Here For Future Occupation
BY JEANNE SHOEMAKER
A 44-hour school week and a salary of $75 a month—that's the set up for the 66 women now taking special courses in aeronautical engineering on the campus.
On the regular payroll of either Beech Aircraft Corporation in Wichita or North American Aviation in Kansas City, Kan. these women will return to
these women will return to their companies at the end of the semester to work on jobs for which they are being specially trained.
Of college age, all the women have had from one to three years of college and most of them plan to get their degrees after the war. There are a few University women, but most of them have gone to other colleges in this state or neighboring states. Although their schedule now is longer and more technical than any they had in college, the women seem to enjoy their work here and like being on a campus again.
Women Are Under WSGA Rules
Entitled to go to all University activities and obliged to abide by WSAG rules for University women, these 66 women are now a part of the University. It is impossible to distinguish them from any other University woman on the campus because as they say, "we dress as we want to for classes; however, most of us wear dresses or skirts and sweaters. Slacks are necessary for some jobs in the company but not here."
For the first eight weeks of the semester, the first four of which are a probation period, the woman take the same courses and have at least one test in each course each week. In this way each woman must make steady progress, because her grades are sent to her company each week. At the University's mid-semester, they will finish their present course and go into a specialized study of one particular phase of the work. This specialized work may be in any phase in which the woman is interested if her instructor recommends her and her company consents.
Classes Are Six Days A Week
For the present, however, the future aeronautical technicians are taking Drafting, Aircraft Nomenclature, Aircraft Materials and Processes, Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, and Blueprint Reading. Five days a week from 8:30 to 5:30 and Saturday from 8:30 until 12:30 they have classes in Marvin hall and the Aeronautical Engineering laboratory behind Marvin, and Snow halls.
"The average work of these women," said Prof. H. S. Stillwell, acting head of the department and supervisor of mathematics and mechanics, "is pretty good; they ought to make good employees."
As for particular interests, Prof. Stillwell said that most of the girls are interested in drafting and production illustration. "A surprising number, however," he added, "have taken an interest in Stress Analysis, which is a study of calculations to

ascertain the strength of a material and how heavy a load it can carry."
Prerequisites for admission to this course are high school plane geometry and a semester of college algebra.
The Hopkins hall women have organized, elected officers and had their first dance—an open house Friday night. Before coming to the University, they worked as riveters, file clerks, inspectors and so on; here they are taking the same course having one purpose in mind, that of going back to their company and getting better jobs until the war is over.
Twenty-one women from Beech Aircraft Corporation in Wichita are living in Hopkins hall, 13 are in the Alpha Omicron Pi house. Five University women enrolled in the course continued living in their sorority houses and two are in Corbin hall. The rest are living in private homes in Lawrence.
After the war, who can tell? They say that to finish their education is their first wish, but for future career women they receive a surprising amount of mail daily from the army, navy, and marines.
Eleven members of the staff ot the School of Architecture and Engineering are teaching the women engineering subjects which have been modified to fit the needs of the companies for which the women are working.
Women Have One Purpose
Beside Professor Stillwell, who is in charge of mathematics and mechanics, Prof. Robert McCloy supervises Industrial Engineering, Prof. Kenneth Razak, Drafting, Morris E. Sandvig supervises and instructs Aircraft Nomenclature. The other members on the staff work as instructors.

The Editorial Page
There Are Many Roads Which Lead To Tokyo
The President spoke Friday night from the dinner of the White House Correspondents Association to a nation confused by a hundred conflicting statements and opinions. Bureaucrats spoke—and contradicted one another. Commentators commented; whom shall we believe? Rumors spread like oil upon the water. This way and that way the American people were buffeted by the winds of misinformation and propaganda announcements and conflicting statements. The President spoke; the topics he touched he discussed candidly. Like the gods of old, the President spoke—and the winds died down.
The President has given us an excellent textbook for the clarification of our confusion and for our inspiration when times look blackest. The textbook is not complete; its scope is narrow, but its vision wide. We may well turn to our textbook, for, unlike the bombast and bluster of the Axis dictators, the statements of the leaders of the democracies have a peculiar penchant for being true—and coming true.
The President on Japan
We do not expect to spend the time it would take to bring Japan to final defeat merely by inching our way forward from island to island across the vast expanse of the Pacific.
There are many roads which lead right to Tokyo. We shall neglect none of them.
Great and decisive actions against the Japanese will be taken to drive the invader from the soil of China. Important actions will be taken in the skies over China—and over Japan itself...
One of the most important announcements in his speech, this statement was well calculated to assure the Chinese and the Australians of immediate and vigorous prosecution of the war against Japan.
The President On Isolation
For today the whole world is one neighborhood. That is why this war, which had its beginnings in seemingly remote areas, has spread to every continent and most of the islands of the sea, involving the lives and liberties of the entire human race. And, unless the peace that follows recognizes that the whole world is one neighborhood and does justice to the whole human race, the germs of another world war will remain as a constant threat to mankind.
A firmer and a greater voice is added to the chorus of demands from thinking people all over the world for a planned peace and a lasting one.
The President On Post-War Economy
A fundamental of an effective peace is the assurance to those men who are fighting our battles, that when they come home they will find a country with an economy firm enough and fair enough to provide jobs for all those who are willing to work.
There are still a few who say we cannot achieve this and other honorable, reasonable aims for the post-war world. In speaking of these professional skeptics—these men of
I am certain that private enterprise will be able to provide the vast majority of those jobs and, in those cases where this cannot be accomplished, that the Congress will pass the legislation which will make good the assurance of jobs.
Just Wondering
If the gods of war aren't splitting their sides at the sight of the reserves going to war while draft-liable students continue school.
--little faith—there comes to my mind an old word in our language—the word—"pettifoggers."
There have been many people wondering about their place in society and industry after the war. Security and freedom are what they are fighting for.
The President On Second Fronts
The Battle of Tunisia will cost us heavily in casualties. We must face that fact now, with the same calm courage as our men are facing it on the battlefield itself. The enemy has strong forces in strong positions. His supply lines are maintained at great cost but Hitler has been willing to pay that cost for he knows the consequences of Allied victory in Tunisia.
Those consequences are actual invasion of the continent of Europe. We do not disguise our intention to make these invasions. The pressure on Germany and Italy will be constant and unrelenting. The amazing Russian armies in the East have been delivering overpowering blows; we must do likewise in the West. The enemy must be hit and hit hard from so many directions that he never knows which is his bow and which is his stern.
Once before there was a great President who made great speeches. He, too, was President during a time of war, but his was civil war. He said, in 1862: "Fellow citizens, we cannot escape history. We of this Congress and this administration will be remembered in spite of ourselves. No personal significance or insignificance can spare one or another of us. The fiery trial through which we pass will light us . . . In honor or dishonor, to the latest generation."
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, too, will be remembered.

Rock Chalk Talk By JIMMY GUNN
Bv Mary Morrill, Sunday Editor
Sigma Chi rush talk: After dinner, one of those hot days we had recently, Betty Cohagen and Helen Gardener went out on the back porch of the Theta house to cool off. They removed their shoes, one thing led to another, and pretty soon they were doing the Hula and a combination of seductive Persian dances. When they finished, the applause was deafening. The entire Sigma Chi chapter had stopped eating and was crowded into the bay window of the dining room, enjoying every little thing.
***
What the well-trained guest does not do: Ann Vaughn, Chi Omega, received a cake from her mother. Roommates Betty June Craig and Marian Montgomery called Joan Cook to have some. Ann gave Joan a piece and put the rest of the cake on a chair. Joan thanked her, turned around, and sat down solidly. Very messy, these home made devil's foods.

Beware——pun: Miller hall girls admit it was pretty terrible, but they still had to laugh when Beth Maxwell came home from Watkins hospital explaining how she had just been accepted for a blood donation.
"They gave me a hemoglobin test first, but, of course, that was silly. You know Maxwell's—good to the last drop!"
* * *
Debt of Honor: Among other things, Persis Snook, Miller hall, received a house bill from the Sig Eps in her mail this week. According to the carefully tabulated sheet, she is in debt to the chapter to the extent of over $400 for the use of its front room, for the use of its record plays and for great quantities of assorted beverages. All debts were contracted, a polite note stated while in the company of one Ralph Coldren, who had gone bravely off to the wars leaving her name as his financial backer.
Waiting for the mail: Barbara Winn, Pi Beta Phi, had a date here in Lawrence with a boy who lived in a rather distant city. Several weeks ago she told him she didn't believe he would ever make it. In a rash moment, he bet ten bottles of champagne that he would. He didn't. Nowadays when the express man arrives, the whole Pi Phi chapter is out to meet him.
VALENTINE'S DAY Thank St. Valentine Birds First
Yes, it's Valentine's Day! This is the time when all good men send to their sweethearts, wives, and mothers some sweet reminder of their devotion. But in sending these gifts, do these men know why they send them on this particular date? Probably not, and the men probably don't care, but it's a peculiar fact that Valentine's Day customs started with birds. $ ^{*} $ Valentine In some
Although there are three Saint Valentines recorded in history who may have been responsible for the day's name, the most likely origin is narrowed down to two of the Saints. One is described as a priest at Rome, and the second was a bishop of Interamna. Both are reported to have lived and suffered in the second half of the third century. The third St. Valentine lived in Africa and little is known of him.
The popular custom connected with St. Valentine's day, however, undoubtedly had its origin in a conventional belief generally held in England and France during the Middle Ages. This belief is summed up in Chaucer's "Parliament of Foules" which relates, "For this was on Seynt Valentine's Day, when every foul cometh ther to choose his mate."
Birds Began Custom
So birds began the custom by mating in the second months of the year, and humans soon followed suit. On this day love was supreme. So the day was looked upon as especially consecrated to lovers, as a proper occasion for writing love letters and sending lovers' tokens. Those who chose each other on this day called their choice by the name
Valentine. In some instances, he sending of a love token on Valentine's Day was considered a proposal, and if a young man was carried away by the spirit of the occasion, he often found that he was engaged permanently for the rest of his life.
Love Festivals Staged
In early England, love festivals were held on the eve of Feb. 14. At these affairs persons were not so particular. All the women went to one side and the men to the other. Then they drew names, so to speak, and spent the evening with the person they were fortunate or unfortunate enough to pick. In this manner, they became acquainted without all the red tape that surrounded introductions in those days.
So, girls, when you are opening a lovely Valentine's Day gift, just take a moment to go to the nearest window and thank the birds in the trees for originating a custom which has proved so profitable to you.

Rostov Line Is Crumbling Reds Report
By International News Service
By International News Service
Victorious Russian armies advancing in a semi-circle north of Rostov yesterday threatened the entrapment of Nazi forces estimated at half a million men along the northern coast of the Sea of Azov.
Official reports indicated that the entire German front in southern Russia was crumbling. Unconfirmed reports in Moscow, broadcast by CBS correspondent Bill Downs, said that the Germans were setting fire to Rostov, apparently in preparation for evacuation.
Another Nazi army, which has been estimated variously at anywhere between 70,000 and 150,000 men was fighting with its back to the coast of the Sea of Azov. Japanese newspapers today carr reports admitting that 35 Japanese warships were sunk or damaged and 611 Japanese planes destroyed or damaged in the Solomon Islands and New Guinea area between Aug. 7 and Feb. 13.
Attacks on Solomons Continue
This outburst of frankness of course was coupled with fantastic claims of American losses. Tokyo says that 24 Allied ships, mostly American, had been sunk or damaged in the same period, besides those previously listed sunk or damaged. 205 Allied planes were said to have been shot down.
In Washington the Navy department announced that. American planes were continuing their incessant attacks on enemy bases in the Solomons with three successive raids Thursday. All of the American planes returned safely to their bases.

Letters to the Editor
EDITOR:
This letter concerns the Kansan's recent poll of women students to gather opinions on the draft, and refers, in particular, to the statement made by Margaret Penny, a senior in the business school, which read as follows: "I am against registration. It is probably the best thing for the war effort but I am against the war effort. I think that less harm would be done by letting the enemy take over than by the war."
Of course Miss Penny is certainly entitled to her own opinion and freedom of expression of the same, but I am sure I speak or many of the University women when I say that I sincerely hope that any outsider reading this article will not draw the conclusion that this defeatist's attitude is one held even by any slight number of the women students here at the University of Kansas.

The camouflage cannon constructed by the fall camouflage class under the supervision of T. D. Jones, assistant professor of design, and Bernard "Poco" Frazier, instructor of design, has attracted the attention of the Second Army Corps Headquarters at Omaha. Two army officers from Omaha came to Lawrence Thursday in response to a___
I, personally, cannot understand the frame of mind of anyone making such a statement. It seems to me that, should the government deem the drafting of women necessary, any red-blooded American woman would feel proud and be only too willing to do whatever she could to help speed the day when this mess will all be over "and the boys come home again all over the world."
Naturally all University women feel that education is vitally important. If we did not think so we wouldn't be here, but many of the boys have been called into the service without being allowed to finish their education, a fact which is unquestionably more deplorable than the fact that some of us women may not be able to finish our college careers. I hardly think that the next generation will suffer to any extent because their mothers missed out on ten hours of Spanish.

Army Officers Inspect Cannon Camouflage
The military men spent the day interviewing Professors Jones and Frazier on the adaptations of sculpture plaster working technique for camouflage principles and looking over the cannon. They took photographic records of the camouflage process to Omaha.
The principal value of the camouflage cannon lies in its rapid, accurate and economical construction. Professor Frazier said. The easy

In 16 hours a crew of 12 men can make 30 similar cannons to the one in the camouflage class, Prof. Frazier explained. The process has such possibilities in accuracy that guns could be constructed so realistically that even the inventor would have to tap them to discover they were camouflage.

This election plan was worked out by Marge Rader, president of the WSGA, with the aid of an election committee. Members of the Council serving on the committee are Mary Morrill, vice-president of the freshman class; Jill Peck, manager of the point system; and Peggy Davis, secretary of the WSGA Council.
'Complete Representation Assured'
Pointing out the merits of the plan, Miss Rader said. "The complete representation of the women of the University, both Greeks and independents, offered by this plan is enough within itself to warrant its acceptance. A definite provision is made for both independent and Greek women on the Council, a lack of which has been a weakness in the old plan.
"Also the new method offers a more continuous body. Preparing women in class offices and other positions on the council for higher and more responsible jobs leads to such continuity and makes for a stronger council."
"There would be under the new plan a feeling of responsibility to elect the most qualified girl to an
office, regardless of who she is or where she lives because the representatives to the Council will already have been elected."

Nelson Says Clothes 'Runs' Are Selfish
WASHINGTON, (INS) Donald M. Nelson, chairman of the War Production Board, yesterday condemned clothes hoarding as "really selfish" as he appealed to civilian consumers to halt unnecessary "runs" on supplies.
The WPB chief reiterated that current stocks are "in good shape" and declared that there $ ^{8} $ ___.
The WPB chief reiterated the shape" and declared that there are "no plans now for rationing clothes."
"Runs on stores are the surest way to bring about rationing," he warned. "I hope they will not continue. Hoarding of clothes is really selfish."
He told the senators that such a severe contraction of manpower, if it materialized, might bring about further rationing even if the materials were available.
Nelson held an unusual press conference to explain "certain discrepancies" between his previous statements that clothes rationing was unnecessary and testimony which he gave in a closed session of the senate military affairs committee on Feb. 5.
Before the committee, Nelson was questioned about the effect on the civilian economy of manpower commission estimates that 3.200,000 workers would have to be withdrawn from civilian employment this year for the war effort.
"There are no plans now for rationing clothes. We haven't discussed any and we don't intend to until it becomes necessary. We are operating on the theory of making reductions in the civilian economy only when it will help win the war. Stocks Are Plentiful
No Plans For Rationing Clothes
"Our stocks of wool and cotton are in good shape as are our purchases of clothing for the armed forces and lend-lease. As you all know, our wool supplies have been helped a great deal by boats coming back from Australia loaded with this product.
"Our stocks are in excellent shape. From a supply situation at the present time I see no necessity for rationing clothing. Unless we should have to reduce civilian employment

Allies Halt Axis Drives In Tunisia
By International News Service
Hard fighting American armored forces today brought to a halt Field Marshall Erwin Rommel's smashing drive in south central Tunisia.
Latest word from battle headquarters in North Africa said that under a cover of American and British bombing and fighting planes United States troops stemmed the enemy advance and recaptured six of the eight troops originally involved.
eighteen miles originally overrun in the sudden Axis offensive that began Monday morning.
A communique announced a heavy raid on Palermo.
Meantime, Tunisian-based flying fortresses made their first raid on enemy bases on the Mediterranean island of Sicily.
On the Russian front Soviet armies smashed ahead in new gains along the 600-mile front from Orel to the Caucasian port of a Novorossisk. Soviet vanguards were reported elosing in on Kharkov in advances that swept well beyond Zhuguyev.
The air warfare in the southwest Pacific appeared to be entering a decisive stage. Land-based bombers under command of General Douglas MacArthur made a series of attacks on a 2,000 mile front.
Daumier Featured In Thayer Exhibit
A collection of lithographs done by Honore Daunier for the "Chari-vari" a Parisian journal, will comprise the February exhibit at Thayer museum, Miss Minnie Moodie, curator of the museum, announced yesterday.
The lithographs are distinguished for their virility of characterization drawn in a manner of plastic simplicity and for their expressional use of line. The artist has become famous for his portrayal of movement in lithographs, Miss Moodie said.
Honore Daumier is frequently called the Michael Angelo of caricature. Satirical art in its inspired form was Daumier's greatest contribution to art.
Previous to 1843, Daumier dealt blows to the constitutional monarchy, artists, actors, and newspapermen in caricatures that were pertinent in depth and truthful in observation. The swift, spontaneous drawings with their acute observations and wit so appealed to the people that Daumier won success rapidly.
Barker Is Editor-in-Chief
Maurice Barker, College senior, was elected by the Kansan Board yesterday to succeed Bob Coleman as editor-in-chief of the University Daily Kansan. Coleman has been ordered to active duty with the Army Air Corps.

Tour Troop Posts
Plans call for the women to tour American troop posts on the North African battlefront. The four-ton trucks to be used are fully equipped to help them in their tasks, with equipment ranging from reading material to a doughnut machine and coffee-making apparatus.
All the women were active in
community affairs before being selected by the organization for their positions. Miss Luther has been active in recent years in social work over the state. She was quite active in the Young Democratic organizations of the state, and has served as Young Democratic state committeewoman.
In carrying out their assignments, the women will drive and maintain huge trucks. Each truck has quarters for three women. The trucks were made in England and taken to North Africa; and if necessary, the women will live in the trucks while carrying out their duties.

Beth Announces Annual Contest
Airplane Crash Kills Chicago Flier In Dive To Suburban La Mesa
Announcement of a contest for high school journalism papers was made this morning by Prof. Elmer F. Beth, chairman of the department of journalism. The contest is an annual affair, sponsored by the department to promote and encourage journalism work in Kansas high schools.
San Diego, Cal. (INS) — An army board today investigated the cause of a plane crash which claimed the life of Lt. William Fox of Chicago. His P-38 interceptor crashed yesterday and burned in suburban La Mesa with such force that the engines buried 15 feet into the ground.

Only one entry from each paper may be made in any one division, but entries may be submitted for all divisions.
Three newspapers, and the story for which the award is made, will be named first, second, and third place winners in each division. Judges will be members of the faculty of the University department of journalism.
Witnesses sait that the plane, diving from 3000 ft, was successfully maneuvered to avoid crashing into a populated district.
Last year more than 100 entries were received.
Divisions of the contest are news story, editorial, feature story, human interest story, interview, service to school, business management, and miscellaneous.
Still A Team ★★★ Divorced Red, Wife Helps
Mrs. Skelton will remain his chief gag writer and business manager-a job she took shortly after they first met in Kansas City, Mo., when she was a theatre usherette. They married shortly afterward.
WSGA Will Hear Revised Rules
"Mr. Skelton," she told the judge, "reversed the usual order of behavior for men. Most men leave home early and come home late. He went out late and came home early—in the morning."
Divorced Thursday in a "friendly" and uncontested suit, the couple walked out of superior court arm in arm- The comedian waited in the wings while his estranged wife listed technical cruelty charges.
Hollywood — (INS) — Funnyman Richard (Red) Skelton and Erna Marie Skelton are right back where they started 11 years ago—a couple of good friends, one writing gags and the other cracking them for radio and film audiences.

Dies Group Will Continue Investigation
Washington. — (INS)—The Dies Committee to investigate un-American activities came up with a new two-year contract from Congress last week as its checkmating House subcommittee on subversive government employees failed to get off to the flying start promised by its sponsors.
Actual hearings by the special appropriations subcommittee created to investigate charges against 39 government officials, its chairman disclosed, probably will not begin until next week instead of immediately as indicated by house leaders.
Kerr Is Chairman
Res. Kerr, Democrat from N. C., who was named chairman of the fiveman subcommittee shortly before the House by a 304-94 vote gave the Dies Committee its fifth extension, said the group had "nothing scheduled" for yesterday.
"There are some preliminaries to be worked out." Keer explained. Asked when the first formal session would be held, he replied, "Probably next week."
Appropriations Committee Chairman Cannon, Democrat from Mo. who sponsored the special panel under an agreement between the Republican and Democratic leaders had assured the House that the subcommittees would take up the case at once. It had been indicated that the charge against William Pickens, $5,000-a-year Negro Treasury Department employee accused by Rep. Dies. Democrat from Tex., of having communist connections, would be considered today.
Appointment of the subcommittee —which also includes Representatives Gore, Democrat from Tennessee, Anderson, Democrat from New Mexico, Power, Republican from New Jersey, and Keefe, Republican from Wisconsin—preceded by only several hours the bitter debate on the Dies continuation resolution.
Appoints Committee
Dies himself took the floor and added to a recital of the committee's accomplishments the statement that he and his family had been "threatened and hounded" by some of his critics. He asked for the extension "only on condition that we'll do our duty." And after the vote had been tallied—a vote reflecting the strongest opposition yet brought against the committee—he expressed gratification at the outcome. He said:
Feelings ran high as member after member took the floor to oppose or support the extension. Climax of the hour-long debate came when Rep. Voorhis, Democrat from California, a member of the Dies group for the past four years but one of its strongest recent critics, opposed the continuance and announced his withdrawal. Voorhis said that, voting against the resolution, he would not expect to be named to the new committee.
"In view of the campaign which was put up against us and the fact that we conducted no such campaign of letters and telegrams, I think it was a remarkable victory."
Dies Takes Floor

Wichita Man Enters Plea of Not Guilty In Torture_Killing

Wichita, (INS)—Walter Ray Severn, 37, was held in a Sedgwick county jail without bond today, after his arraignment on a not guilty plea of the torture-murder of his 8-year-old niece, Inez Viola Burling.
The arraignment and not guilty plea came suddenly after the first scheduled proceedings were postponed for fear of mob violence. The judge, noting the temper of persons who had filled two entire floors or the courthouse at the time of the
scheduled arraignment, ordered Se- vern held in his cell.
Severn's wife, Frances, 25, a bath house masseur, is also charged with first-degree murder.

Unexpected Social Whirl Extends Beyond Week-end

Fresh from a 37-29 victory over the Iowa State Cyclones and armed with a supply or liniment and bandages, PhoG Allen's Jayhawkers will travel to Stillwater tomorrow night where they take on Henry Iba's rough and ready Oklahoma A-M crew in what may be an encore to last month's brawn in Hoch auditorium.
Kansas defeated the Aggies in that game 36 to 29 as five members of the Stillwater aggregation left the court on personal fouls.

Beta Whips Phi Delt 37-25
Jayhawk jabberwock
by Milo Farneti
MISSOURI RUINS EVERYTHING
Shucks! Missouri had to go and spoil the Kansas-Oklahoma cage natural in Hoch Feb. 26. Before the Tigers cooled Sooner title hopes last night drumbeaters were expecting the first packed house this year. Three feuds were to have livened the proceedings:
1. Charlie Black-Titanic Tucker were slated to settle their argument.
3. The natural Jayhawk-Sooner hate was to have been heightened by a Big Six title game.
2. Phog Allen-Bruce Drake might have blistered the air in a verbal battle similar to last year's Texas rules contest over the Tucker eligibility case in a Hoch pre-game rally.
The game hasn't lost all its lusert, though, for Oklahoma has a strong team—better than last year's five that walloped Kansas 63-51 at Norman. But Kansas also has a better quintet than the co-champs of 1942.
It'll still be a sulphurous high-scoring combat that should break the conference game scoring record of 114 set by the two teams last season. Phog Allen and Bruce Drake will put on a top show for those of you lucky enough to still be on Mt. Oread next week.

Charlie Black, who has been ordered to active duty in the Army Air Corps Feb. 21, dragged his lank form around the Hill yesterday. Since he has just recovered from pneumonia, a possibility exists that Black may get a short deferment. Even if he did, the Big Six's best cager probably wouldn't be in shape to play against Tucker and Oklahoma.

Old Maid's night will be observed at Stillwater tomorrow. Henry Iba swore that his Aggies would gain physical revenge (left jabs to the kidneys, rabbit punches, tackling, blocking) on the Jayhawks in Gallagher fieldhouse and A-M hasn't done anything lately to dispel that notion. Tuesday A-M defeated Tulsa in what was described as "one of the roughest, wildest college basketball games ever played in Tulsa."

SOLARISSA
Philadelphia, (INS) — Capt. E. V. "Eddie" Rickenbacker yesterday revealed that the army and navy air transport commands now average "around 500 trans - Atlantic flights per week, and more are being added all the time."
At the same time, Rickenbaker said in an interview he was opposed to overtime pay for the newly established 48-hour week in 32 manufacturing centers.
"In times like these," he said, "I do not approve of overtime pay except for the men in the foxholes, the swamps, the deserts—those making the supreme sacrifice.
"There is little reason why those back home should not expend every effort and energy, if for no other reason than that our own skins are at stake."
In a broadcast Rickenbacker fore-saw a post-war era of aerial activity when "air liners will be as common as freight cars."
He also revealed that the war has brought about some inventions that will be of tremendous benefit to commerce, agriculture, and industry when peace returns.
Rickenbacker stated that the number of flying fields, for training and other purposes, that have been built in this country, is now a military secret.
"But," he added, "it is no secret that after the war, hundreds of these fields will become the backbone of the largest network of airports that any country in the world can boast of."
BETA WHIPS---
(continued from page four)
In a rough and tumble game the Sig Alph's last night knocked Delta Chi out of a possible tie with the Beta's and Phi Delt's for first place in Division I by a score of 43-41. Sig Alph Dick Rosberg hit a long shot in the second "sudden death" overtime to give the Alph's the needed two point advantage.
Elton Winter, Delta Chi high scorer with 19 points, was the spark of the attack that challenged an early Sig Alph lead and ran the game into the second overtime. For the Sig Alph's Frank Gage was the high scorer with 14 points to his credit.
Delta Chi's will still retain third place in Division I and the Sig Alph's come up to fourth place.
Delta Tau. Wins
In an earlier game of the evening Delta Tau had little trouble overcoming the Triangle quintet 31-10. Stapleton and Haynes starred for the Delt's with 12 and 10 points respectively.
It was nip and tuck all the way in the Sigma Chi-ATO battle with the score tied many times, but ATO finally came on out top. 29-26, with George Robb leading scoring with 10 points. Sigma Chi Frank Pattee was high for his team also with 10 points.

Iba-coached squad in recent years.
The home-court advantage and the absence of Charlie Black from the Jayhawk lineup strengthen Aggie chances.
Scoring chores will once again fall upon the shoulders of Otto Schnellbacher and John Buescher, who have been hitting the basket regularly during Black's extended absence from the Jayhawk lineup. Diminutive Harold "Sparky" McSpadden is scheduled to again get the starting pod in the absence of Black.
Facing the Kansans will be a veteran Aggie crew which features the defensive work of guards Bogart, Herron, and Aubrey, and the offensive and defensive rebounding of Center Lou Steinmeir. Buescher Sparks Kansas
John Buescher, Jayhawk quarterback, found his shooting eye last night to lead his mates to a 37 to 29 victory over the Cyclones on their home court. Buescher sifted through an Iowa defense that had been impregnable in the first half to chalk up 15 points for scoring honors.
The victory boosted the Jayhawks' conference lead to two games as an overconfident Oklahoma squad dropped a game to Missouri at Columbia, 45 to 50. Thornton Jenkins, outstanding sophomore in the conference, led the Tigers to the upset win with 19 points. Tiger defense held Gerald Tucker to 10 points.
The Big Six leaders had trailed the sophomore-dominated Cyclone quintet 12 to 16 at the end of the first half, as guards Norman and Oulman stopped Jayhawk offensive thrusts. But the two Ames defensive aces fouled out early in the second half, and the Kansans moved away to a safe lead.
Officials Call 24th.
The game marked the final conference competition for Ron Norman. Cyclone football and basketball spraklug, who has received his notice to report for training in the Army Air Corps.
The game was rough, with 34 fouls being called on the two teams. Failure to connect with free throws cost the losers heavily, as the Cyclone cagers missed ten tosses from the free throw line.

US Aid To China Will Increase
Washington, (INS)—J. Franklin Ray, chief of the Chine branch, Office of Lend-Lease Administration, yesterday predicted that aid now being sent to Chine will be steadily increased through air transport.
In a report to the House Foreign Affairs committee, Ray revealed that more Lend-Lease goods for China were shipped from the United States "in the last month for which complete reports are available" than in any month since Burma fell.
Ray, who was lend-lease representative from June to December, 1D42, said that "it is only in the last few months that we have gotten into good production on transport planes."
Plane deliveries in the past six months have been "greatly increased," new airfields have been built in China and India and "hundreds of Chinese student pilots" have been trained in the United States, Ray said.
One-half of all lend-lease supplies for China shipped so far are now in India, he said, and added that these, together with cash purchases and U. S. Army supplies provide "several months' supply for movement into China" under present schedules.
Following the Allied defeat in Burma, Ray reported, the American Volunteer Group "using planes and equipment that represented a pooling of Chinese cash purchases and lend-lease materials and supplies" won "control of the air over China, never lost from December, 1941, to date."
Glen Sankey, engineering junior from Kansas-City, Mo., underwent an operation today ab Watkins Memorial hospital.

Tomorrow's Peace Must Be Planned While We Fight Today's War
Foremost in the thoughts of prominent men and women today is the problem of peace and the post-war world. Leaders like Governor Stassen, Representative Clare Booth Luce, Vice-President Henry Wallace, and a hundred others are trying to drive home to the people that today is the time to plan for peace-today while we know what we want; today while we are still fighting and sacrificing and dying.
Vice-President Wallace is speaking from the heart of the people with his proposals for a freer, warless world. He would like to make a world where no one need go hungry or jobless or in chains. His is the dream.
Representative Luce bids us look to the air. Look, says she, to the future of commercial aircraft. Mrs. Luce created quite a tempest under the capitol dome the other day when she made her maiden speech and advocated American control of global air (later denying she implied so much). Some alarmists may say that she is creating dissention among the United Nations by bringing up such topics now, but now is the time to bring them up—now while we are united in aim and purpose, we should harness these forces which are likely to rip us apart tomorrow. Mrs. Luce emphasizes the practical turn of mind.
Governor Stassen in his speech here recently recommended a careful consideration of the outlines of a post-war world. He suggested seven points for post-war relationships, knowing that they were not perfect but hoping that they might lead to further discussion and elucidation. His is the plan.
The practical, the ideal, and the plan—that is what we need today. And most of all we need discussion, clarification, thought. We need thought today by the men behind the guns, by men and women in the factories and in the home, and by the students. Yes, by the students, for the student of today will be the leader of tomorrow.
To quote a fiery orator of another time of crisis: "Men may cry, Peace, peace! But there is no peace." We cannot wait for the peace. We must prepare today, or we shall have no peace.
Tomorrow will be too late, because tomorrow we shall have forgotten.
Invention of Phonograph Record Is Attacked By Caesar Petrillo
At long last the American Federation of Musicians (A.F.L.) has announced that it has submitted to large recording firms proposals to end its ban on the making of records by A.F.M. members for public use, and invited industry representatives to a negotiations conference. Spokesmen for several recording firms said they would accept the invitation.
According to James Caesar Petrillo, union president, the ban was ordered to give more employment to more musicians. Throughout the dispute, which has been to the courts and before a Senate committee, Petrillo has insisted that thousands of his 138,000 members were not employed because of juke box and recording competition. The substance of the A.F.M. proposals is that recording manufacturers pay for their recordings into a union fund
Just Wondering
Who will be out for football practice in the fall—the faculty?
--to be used for supporting unemployed members.
"The invention of the record has done my boys an injustice and thrown them out of work," says Petrillo. "The record must pay."
Ah, if the horse had only had a James Caesar!
Washington Prescription- Shake Well Before Taking!
The recently-publicized split between Rubber Czar Bill Jeffers and the Army and Navy over rubber, high-octane gasoline, and the Uboat menace may be symptomatic of a diseased bureaucracy. At least, the War Production Board seems in need of a doctor's care.
The question has been raised time and again about the capabilities of Donald Nelson for coordinating the activities of such resolute and head-strong men as Ferd Eberstadt, Chief of Production Charles Wilson, and Rubber Czar Jeffers. With disputes and battles over authority and critical materials storming over the capitol, it would seem that Nelson is not the man to harness these unruly chargers to the chariot of war.
It is not at all unlikely, therefore, that President Roosevelt, M.D. (medicineman deluxe), may prescribe for his ailing bureau a good shaking-up.

Rock Chalk Talk By JIMMY GUNN
Aerial gymnastics: If anyone is wondering about the three yellow training planes that swooped low over the campus Sunday noon, they were winged wolves on the loose from the naval aviation cadet training station at Oathe.
It seems that they barged into town Saturday looking for a few lambs and called up the Sigma Kappa house (unwittingly, I suppose). Two of the women took them up (there were only two of the cadets Saturday) and made an evening of it.
They were surprised no end to receive a long-distance telephone call Sunday forenoon from the cadets at Olathe saying they would be up in half an hour and would swoop three times over the Sigma Kappa house. Their word was as good as their bond, and right in the middle of dinner they swooped, while the Sigma Kappa's rushed out into the yard to wave frantically skyward.

Home Town For Dean Back To Law
He likes to talk in Russian brogue and brag about his home town. He is proud of his Swedish ancestry, hopes to take a trip to Sweden some day, and likes to spend all his leisure time with his girl. He is Dean Ostrum, president of the Sigma Nu fraternity.
Quiet and easy-going, Dean seems just like the boy-next-door. With every other word, he utters some praise for Russell, Kan., under $ ^{ \circ} $
Quiet and easy-going, L With every other word, he utte and wants everyone to understand why his home town is so fine. In fact, he likes Russell so much that he wants to return after graduating from the University and go into law practice with his father.
Dean claims that the time when finally he will become a lawyer seems far off, since he is going into the army in May. He is now a junior in political science, but insists that he will come back to the University and graduate.
Dean has been on the Dean's honor roll for two years and has a Summerfield scholarship. He is in Owl society, Scabbard and Blade, is an editorial assistant on the Jayhawker, and wrote for the Kansan last year. He is treasurer of the Inter-fraternity Council and was formerly publicity chairman of the YMCA.
Because he likes to ride,he was
president of the Bit and Spur club, which is practically non-existent now. He wants to have his own horse when he goes back to Russell.
He says he is no good at any sport but he likes to watch any of them. He plays the clarinet just for his own amusement and jams with the radio. Last year he played with the University band.
Dean is engaged to Sarepta Pierpont, Gamma Phi. In telling about it, Dean explained, "I had a blind date with her last spring, and she was the only girl who ever told me I was a good dancer, so we were engaged eight months later."
Dean Ostrum has a great admiration for John Conard, editor of the Jayhawker. In contrast, he dislikes persons who forget that they've met you, and he hates snobbery.

News Funnelling Policy Attacked By Roy Roberts
Washington, (INS)—Funnelling of government news through one source—the Office of War Information—was under severe criticism today.
This policy was attacked by Roy A. Roberts, managing editor of the Kansas City Star, who said during a radio forum that the American people want facts, not propaganda.
"I am not challenging the good faith or the patriotic efforts of Elmer Davis of the OWI," Roberts said, "But there is a mighty close line between facts and propaganda." Have Right to Facts
"Whatever we may do about the propaganda abroad, the American people have a right to demand and the American newspapers to insist upon facts—not propaganda — at home. It is awfully easy by the little, slight twist of wordings to change the import of any story; it is an awful lot of power to give one organization."
Roberts, new president of the American Society of Newspaper Editors, participated in the forum with censorship director Byron Price; Basil L. Walters, executive editor of the Minneapolis Star-Journal and Tribune; Palmer Hoyt, editor of the Portland Oregonian; Wilbur Forrest, assistant editor of the New York Herald Tribune, and A. H. Kirchhofer, managing editor of the Buffalo Evening News.
Criticizes Censor
Walters emphasized the harm in withholding information which would be of interest to the American public and of no harm to the war effort. Kirchhhofer criticized the censoring of American newspaper comment in dispatches to Britain and elsewhere. Hoyt agreed with the policy of censoring mail to and from Alaska but said censorship should not be abused.
The editors, who were in Washington to attend the annual meeting of the society, praised Price and his office for intelligent handling of plays.
Mr. Roberts attended the University from 1905-07, and is a native of Muscotaot. He began with the Lawrence Journal-World in 1905, and became city editor. In 1905 he went to the Kansas City Star, and has been there since. He is a member of Alpha Tau Omega.
In May, 1934, Mr. Roberts was speaker at a convocation for the Don Mellett memorial lecture. He emphasized at that time that the one duty of a free press is to preserve individual liberty.

Legislators Plan Short Session
Topeka.—(INS)—With the deadline for the introduction of new bills a thing of the past, the Kansas legislature today settled down to argue proposals while the new measures were parceled out to the various committees.
Leaders are striving for adjournment by March 15, allowing the legislators a full month to wind up reports and debates on unfinished business.
Some legislative leaders today predicted that the old fight over whether osteopaths should be allowed to practice surgery and prescribe drugs would die in committee and never reach the House floor for a showdown fight.
The House reported quick action on the measure to put the state back on a pre-war time basis. Last week 67 members introduced a bill to back the clock to Central Time. Today the Federal and State Affairs committee approved the bill and recommended its passage.
The House Judiciary committee approved the civil liberties bill to allow anyone under arrest to confer alone with their attorneys without having the conference eavesdropped in any way.
The same committee also put its stamp of approval on the measure declaring all hotels of more than 50 rooms public utilities, placing them under state control for rate-making purposes.

Apple Expert Presents Recipes To First Lady
It's an old adage that "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" and L. F. Holt is convinced that apple dishes on the menu kept his student customers from having flu as many students did in the winter months of 1930 and '31 while he was proprietor of the College Inn.
Mr. Holt, an originator of apple recipes, managed the Jay hawk Cafe from 1919 to 1929, after which he took over the Col
lege Inn until 1933. Mr. Holk attended business college in Lawrence, but became interested in cooking, and particularly in apple recipes. He is now spending a few days in Lawrence en route to Wenatchee, Wash., after a two-weeks vacation from his culinary work there.
Mr. Holt is returning from a plane trip to Washington, D. C., which he made for the express purpose of presenting to Mrs. Roosevelt a box of his original apple recipes. He gave to the first lady 365 recipes, one for each day of an average year, plus two extras, one for leap year and one for victory.
Box Made of Apple Wood
The recipes were filed in a box made of apple wood. The box which Mrs. Roosevelt now has will be left at the White House, but when Mr. Holt returns to Wenatchee, he plans to have an apple-wood recipe box made for Mrs. Roosevelt herself.
A picture of Mr. Holt presenting the recipe box to the first lady appeared in The Wenatchee Daily World of Feb. 3. The story referred to Mr. Holt as a "local culinary expert."
Salads Are Good
"Salads are good for people," says Mr. Holt, and a majority of his recipes are various combinations for apple salads. He has also made up 150 apple desserts and 12 apple coupes, and is the originator of apple and fish dishes.
Mrs. Holt has studied the composition of the apple, the storage of apples, and different kinds which may be used for different purposes. The Jonathon is the best all-purpose apple he has found. Mealiness in Delicious apples is often caused by taking the fruit out of cold storage and placing it in a warm store window he says.
Mrs. Roosevelt Visits WAACS at Kansas City Radio Training School
Kansas City, (INS)—Mrs. Franklin Roosevelt, wife of the President, visited the WAACs' Radio Training school in Kansas City yesterday.
After a brief inspection of the school and the WAACs' quarters in a downtown hotel, Mrs. Roosevelt complimented them on the work they are doing. "I hope it means a quicker end to the war," she said, adding that "The WAACs are the new women pioneers."
Immediately after the tour of inspection Mrs. Roosevelt, accompanied by Col. Oveta Culp Hobby, commanding officer of the WAACs, left by plane for Columbia. Mo., where she is to make an address.
Mrs. Roosevelt was scheduled to return to Washington last night and Mrs. Hobby plans to fly to Dallas for a speech and then to visit her family.

The Graduate Record examination, offered by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, will be given at the University, Mar. 23 and 27, Prof. A. H. Turney, of the education department, announced to day.
Graduate Exam Set For March
The examination is voluntary with the student, and anyone interested may apply at Professor Turner's office. The examination will probably be most beneficial to those students finishing their sophomore or senior year, those interested in graduate work, graduate students, and those entering the armed service. Professor Turner said. Faculty members also may take the examination under an assumed name.
The value in the examination for those entering the armed forces is that they can compare their status now with the results of an exam taken after they return.
After application is made in Professor Turney's office, a fee of $3 is paid by each. The applications go to New York, and the sealed tests are returned. Professor Turney will administer the examination, but the person being examined breaks the seal and reseal his own exam. The exams are graded in New York, and the grade is returned to the student.
Any student on the campus or any member of the University staff interested in the examination may obtain a prospectus of the plan from Professor Turney. a fll etaioin shdrlu cnfwppdlnmlhm

St. Louis (INS) — The first groups of enlisted Air Corps Reservists, being called up from schools and colleges, farms and factories, are now arriving at the Army Air Forces Basic Training Center at Jefferson Barracks, Mo., for pre-aviation cadet basic training, according to an announcement today by Col. Thomas J. J. Christian, commanding officer.
The men—first soldiers ever to arrive at the barracks directly from their homes and in civilian clothing since the air forces technical training command took command of the post — are from 12 mid-western states.

The feature performance of the afternoon was given by the a cappella choir, directed by Dean D. M. Swarthout, who sang four numbers.

Army Is Calling AAC Reservists On Active List
Men in the Army Air Corps Reserve who have aplied for active duty are beginning to receive their orders, Dr. Laurence C. Woodruff, registrar, said today.
"Apparently all the reservists who were in a deferred status have been called. So now they are beginning to dig into the active list," he asserted.
Movie Will Be Presented At Navy Reserve Meeting
A movie, sponsored by the Navy, will be shown at a naval reserve meeting at 7:30 tomorrow evening in the Marvin hall auditorium, Gerald Tewell, publicity chairman of the local naval reserve, said today. All naval reservists are invited, Tewell said.
Mobile, Ala. (INS) — The docket at the Mobile city jail carries a charge against M. E. Robinson, a member of the city fire department. The accusation—"sending in a false alarm."
The registrar advises reservists who have been ordered to Jefferson Barracks, Missouri, to take plenty of clothes along with them. Men who have already reported there write that there are not enough uniforms at present for everybody and that the cold weather there makes warm clothing necessary.
Two ERC enlistees attending the University have received their orders, Dr. Woodruff said. Both of the men had paid their fees late, and he expressed the belief that this was the reason that they have received their orders. No further information has been received about the calling of the rest of the ERC's, he said.

Mobile Unit Of Red Cross Here April 8
Plans have been made by the Douglas County chapter of the American Red Cross to bring the Mobile Unit of the Red Cross Donor Center from Kan- City to Lawrence April 8 2019 to collect blood from University students, and Lawrence and Douglas county residents wishing to contribute to the red Cross blood plasma bank. The blood donated will be used by the army and navy for treatment of war injured men and women.
Registration for contributions will begin about March 29, Dr. Ralph vanuteson, director of the Student health Service and chairman of the Red Cross blood donor's committee announced today.
The new plan will not interfere with blood donations for the blood bank at the University hospitals for civilian disaster, Dr. Canuteson aid.
Any person in good health between the ages of 18 and 60 years of age is eligible to contribute, according to Dr. Canuteson. Minors must have the written consent of their parents.
The blood donors' committee composed of Dr. Canuteson, Mrs. C. K. Amidon, Mrs. Ralph Canuteson, Mrs. J. Dodds, and Mr. Dolph Simons attended a meeting Saturday in Kansas City, Missouri, for instructions and observation of the Kansas City blood donor center.

Lindley hall, the new mineral resources building which has been under construction since the middle of December, 1941, was completed except for electrical wiring last week. C. G.

The building cannot be occupied yet, however, as the electrical wiring has been held up because of lack of copper wire. Mr. Bayles said that although priorities on most materials for the construction of Lindley hall, including copper wire, have been secured, much material has been slow in arriving. He explained that it would be impossible to tell when the copper wire will be here

Representatives of the army and navy visited the campus today gaining information as to facilities for housing special training classes in event that they were needed. No commitments of any kind were made, and there is no definite statement as to whether any additional units other than those already stationed on the campus and those to be sent here in June will be established.
Army and Navy Study Facilities To House Units
The visit of the military representatives coupled with the word that new units were established at Kansas State College and Missouri University, taking over fraternity houses as places of residence, gave rise to speculation as to similar plans here. At Manhattan students were drastically searching for lodging in private residences, and a similar situation existed at Columbia, Mo.
Here there is the possibility that University buildings may be used and the fraternity houses may not be needed.
It is thought by University officials that more definite information may be obtained within a few days
At both places the fraternities voluntarily gave over their houses under lease to protect their own financial investments now endangered by reduced membership.
Dr. Margaret Brennan, who received a doctor of philosophy degree in psychology from the University in June. 1942, will speak on "Experiments on Dynamics of Human Behavior in normal and hypnotic states." This lecture will be given on Monday, Feb. 22, at 4:30 p.m. in room 21. Frank Strong hall.

US Soldiers Still Retreat From Rommel
(International News Service)
Nazi field Marshal Erwin Rommel pushed American soldiers out of three hard-won positions in the Tunisian battle front today.
With Sbeitla, Kasserine, and Feriana in south-central Tunisia abandoned by badly battered armored units and the Allied command in Africa admitting heavy casualties in men
In Washington Secretary Stimson admitted that this was a "serious setback" but insisted that it was not unexpected and suggested that it neither be exaggerated or minimized. Await Reinforcements
and presentation, a timeless picture
was anything but encouraging.
While Americans gave up their three towns on the untenable Tunisian plains and moved back to the protection of hills to regroup, reform and await British reinforcements, here were already signs that the attack launched by Rommel Sunday morning had begun to spend itself.
The victorious British Army o' Gen. Sir Bernard Law Montgomery has taken up battle positions directly in front of the Axis forces. The British moved into Medenina 65 miles inside Tunisia after a 45 mile advance in the space of 48 hours.
Rommel moved some 60 odd miles through American positions from Sunday to Thursday and by taking Fernia reached a point only 12 miles from the Algerian frontier.
Twelve Miles From Front
Any Nazi satisfaction resulting from the minor Axis success was dwarfed by the continuing magnitude of fresh disasters in Russia. Soviet armies swept ahead on the 500 mile front capturing scores of towns while the Germans tell back steadily.
On the aerial front the RAF attacked Northwest Germany in the night while fast American bombers from North Africa raided Axis airdromes on the Italian islands of Sardinia. In the far east Gen. Douglas McArthur's bombers continued attacks on Jap bases in New Britian and New Guinea while American submarines sank five more Jap ships and damaged two.

Seniors Take Poll On Dance Plans
A poll is being taken among all senior students to decide whether opinion is favorable to having the annual senior dance and reception Saturday night, May 15, Mary Gene Hull, chairman of the senior reception and dance committee, said today. She is conducting the survey among all independents, those at large, and those in organized houses.
Betty Rowton is contacting all sororites and Larry McSpadden is taking the poll among all the men in organized houses. The survey has just been started and returns are so small that it would be impossible to estimate what the results will be, Miss Hull said.
25
Seniors are being asked if they are in favor of continuing the dance and reception on the Saturday night before graduation or of having a reception on Sunday afternoon, the day of Baecalaureate services, for the faculty and their parents. Opposition to the dance seems to be that there won't be enough senior men left by graduation time to make the dance worth planning for. If the poll shows the majority of seniors favor the dance and reception, the party will probably be held in the Lounge of the Memorial Union building, Miss Hull said.
orders which have indicated that a complete discontinuation of intercollegiate athletics may be necessitated in the near future.
Declared Allen: "I am for what the services feel is necessary. After all practically all of the big Navy and Army officers are former college men, and many of them are former athletes themselves. They, certainly, would wish to continue college athletics as long as such a continuation is in line with the nation's war effort. "Nobody could ask fairer treatment" he added.
Faces Loss of Players
"I want those boys to be where they will do the country the most good, for I know that that is where they, themselves, desire to be," commented the basketball coach.
Allen, himself, is faced with the loss of four of five members of his starting basketball five in the near future. Charley Black, scoring ace of the quintet, is a member of the Army air corps reserve, while Armand Dixon, Ray Evans, and Otto Schmellbacher are members of the army enlisted reserve.
Many athletic coaches, Allen declared, are, in the realization that with the passing of varsity competition they will receive cuts in salary, using all possible pressure to assure the continuation of intercollegiate sports under the pretense of building up men physically for the services.
"If they are really interested in building up men for the services,"

OPA Issues Rules For Food Sign-Up
Washington—(INS)—The OPA yesterday issued rules setting forth the "who, when, where and how" of War Ration Book Two which will be used for rationing of canned goods and meats.
Sales of canned goods will be frozen from midnight Saturday until rationing starts March 1. The dates for meat rationing have not yet been set.
Must Have Ration Book One
Book Two will be issued as follows:
1. Any person who has Book One and who has properly filled out and signed a "consumer declaration" is eligible for a copy of the Book Two. One declaration may be used for an entire family unit.
One Adult May Sign For Family
2. Application is to be made next week, only by those who have Book One.
3. Registration places will be announced in each community by local boards.
One adult may apply for all members of a family by presenting their copies of Book One which covers coffee, sugar and shoes. After registration closes Feb.28, the local boards may refuse to permit applications until March 15. A person who does not have Book One may apply at his own local board.
Copies of the "consumer declaration" were sent out to the nation's newspapers today for publication. On the printed newspaper copies there must be declared the excess amounts of canned goods on hand as of Feb. 21 and the number of extra pounds of coffee held as of last Nov. 28 when coffee rationing started.
Five Cans Per Person
One form can be used for the entire family if it contains the names of all the persons for whom the declaration is made. In the case of canned goods, the housewife may set aside five cans for each person not including cans, bottles and jars containing less than eight ounces or home canned fruits and vegetables. The declaration covers the remainder of the supply of commercial canned fruits (including spiced); canned vegetables; canned fruit and vegetable juice; canned soups, chili sauce and catupu.
The net figure on coffee to be declared is the number of pounds on hand on Feb. 28 in excess of one pound for each person 14 years of age or over. A ration stamp will be removed from Book One for each excess pound of coffee, if there are not enough stamps to cover excess pounds. stamps will be removed from the next coffee book when issued.
For excess canned goods one 8-point blue stamp will be removed from Book Two for each item.

Wilson Heads WPB Agency Under Nelson
Washington (INS)—Engineering a clean break with the military critics of his regime, WPB chairman Donald M. Nelson, emerged yesterday with unified civilian control over all phases of the nation's war production program.
In a move which drew a stiff protest from the armed forces, but won immediate Congressional endorsement, Nelson welded his once-divided agency into a single production unit operating under the direction of Charles E. Wilson, former president of General Electric.
WPB's new "Chief of Staff" not only will schedule and direct the output of planes, ships, tanks, and guns, but also will control the flow of critical materials into production channels. He will rule all WPB industry divisions and branches.
Production scheduling and control of materials had been two separate functions. Nelson's forthright action abolished the "double-harness" effect and resulted in the summary ouster of Ferdinand Eberstadt, New York investment banker, who once exercised sole responsibility for slicing the materials pie.
Several additional resignations may follow from the group of a dozen or so men brought into WPB by Eberstadt. One already has materialized—that of Fred Searls, chief of the facilities bureau.
On the surface the shakeup appeared to be nothing more than an operational change. In official circles, however, it assumed added significance as ending the long and bitter conflict between WPB and the military services for control of arms production.
Elmer S. Riggs, University graduate of 1896, discussed "A Paleontological Expedition in Southern Argentina" before the Snow Zoology club last night. Mr. Riggs showed colored slides and told of personal experiences.

Washington. — (INS) — Japanese military might must be decimated, Madame Chiang Kai-Shek declared today, as she called upon the American democracies to help construct a world in which it would be impossible for "any arrogant or predatory neighbor" to bring about "another orgy of blood."

Fort Des Moines, Iowa (INS) — Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt said yesterday, "If we want to preserve our standard of living we must be willing to share things we have with different people.
(continued from page one) Allen declared, "then they should concentrate upon physical fitness classes in which they will contact hundreds of men in comparison to the few they meet and aid in varsity practices."
If no such call comes, Allen indicated that he will continue with his physical fitness work on the campus, which, he pointed out, has received the enthusiastic approval of officials of the armed forces.
Allen declared his readiness to accept a position in the armed forces of the country as a physical-fitness director "when and if the services see a need for my services."

Jayhawk Jabberwock
HE NOW HURLS FOR UNCLE SAM
Milo Farneti, Jabberwocker for the past two months and javelin throwing ace of the varsity track squad, will soon assume new duties—those of a private in the United States army.
Farneth, a member of the AERC, has received his orders to report Saturday, so is at present home for a short visit. He is one of 60 who will report at Kansas City on that date. Also a member of the group is Joe Crawford, football star. The group is made up of reserve men who failed to enroll in this semester, or paid their fees late. Other army reservists, however, will get their orders in the very, very near future.
Said Farneti in departing: "Uncle Sam couldn't find any good hand grenade slingers among the 60 KU boys in the AERC to be called up Saturday, so I got invited to Leavenworth too."

WHO'S GONNA PLAY?
Tacitum Gwinn Henry goes placidly on with his plans for spring football practice, while fans wonder who the veteran coach is planning on starting this fall. Rumors have it that next September may find Gwinn himself at quarterback, Gwinn Jr. at one halfback post, the Campus Cop at the other, and Hoch auditorium in the fullback slot.
At present the expenditure of funds for spring practice seems to be a complete waste of the money. If the atheletic department, however, has such wealth available, it might better be spent on a miniature Kansas Relays. The Relays could feature teams from this and adjoining states alone. We fear that if the meet is discontinued for the duration, it will be doubly difficult for it to regain its prestige at the end of the war.

George Senesky, who scored 19 points in St. Joseph's 63 to 38 loss to Kansas in December, has scored 311 points in 14 games this season for a 22.2 point average.

Forelock Source of Worry to Dixon Handsome Soph Is Modest
Armand Dixon has a strong aversion to people who are always telling him he's handsome. He hates the idea of having Tyrone Power eyebrows, Charles Boyer eyes, and a Mickey Rooney grin. Worst of all, however, he dislikes comment on his undulating forelock. That wave is strictly on the up and up, and not the work of a curling iron as some members of his public would believe.
Armand is 19, a sophomore, and a native of Hermosa Beach, Calif. He came to KU last year because he was bored with California—"Hollywood isn't so glamorous when you're on the inside"—and because, knowing Vic Hurt and Phog Allen, his high school coach recommended the institution.
(This is the second in a series of individual personality sketches of members of Phog Allen's Iron Five basketball quintet.)
Sitting on the steps of Frank Strong the other day Armand gazed into the distance and meditated on his biggest "kick" in life. He finally decided it was playing in "The Garden" (Madison Square) this winter, and winning.
His second biggest bang developed when some teacher told him he would flunk zoology and he B'd the course. In spite of what every one thinks about athletes and their mental powers, Dixon, at least, is no moron. He has a 1.7 grade average.
He's Not In Love
Armand admits that he dates, and has dated many Hill women, but he contends that he is not in love. When he does go into that fatal dive,
the athlete says it will be in honor of some 17-year-old, well-built number who is 5 feet 10 inches tall, brunette, blue-eyed, and has a distinct aversion to smoking and drinking. He prefers that she be intelligent, however. In case of a show-down necessitating a choice between brains and beauty, Dixon will take the beauty.
A Future Coach
Armand is another iron man who plays basketball strictly because he likes to, and who wants to be a coach. His middle name is Lynn, he's a member of Delta Chi social fraternity, and of the Army Reserve.
As far as the latter goes—Armand

Beat Aggies Near Fight Features The Jayhawk Victory
Stillwater, Feb. 18, (Special) — Phog Allen's Kansas Jayhawkers and Henry Iba's Oklahoma Aggies again battled it out last night at Stillwater with no holds barred in a game featured by a near-brawl, and when the two teams left the court the Jayhawkers held their second victory over the Oklahoma's, this time by a 47 to 43 margin.
The near-fight occurred when the Aggies' towering defensive ace, Jack Herron, and little Sparky McSpadden of the Kansas squad exchanged heated words. As Herron drew back his fist to strike McSpadden, Buescher, second smallest man on the Kansas team stepped between them and demanded: "Why don't you pick on somebody your size?" Spectators Leave Seats
The Jayhawks led throughout most of the fast, rough contest with the exception of one short period in the second half when the home team pulled out into a five point lead. Johnny Buescher, Jayhawk quarterback, was the standout, turning in a brilliant demonstration of ballhandling, and at the same time copping scoring honors for the game with 13 points.
Substitutes arose from their benches, and some of the spectators left their seats. However, officials succeeded in quelling the threatened riot.
In addition to outscoring the defensive-minded Aggies, the Kansas squad achieved the doubtful honor of outdoing the Iba-men in their own game, personal fouls, being charged with 17 as compared to 15 for the home team in the rough game. Top scorers for the Aggie team were Bennett and Steinmeir, each of them tallying nine points.
In addition to Buescher, sophomore Otto Schnellbacher and big Ray Evans found the basket with regularity for the Jayhawks.
Quoted following the game as stating that there was no intention on the part of this University to discontinue athletic relations with the Stillwater institution, Coach Allen declared today: "After all, that question is being settled for us by the services, who are calling up reserves at a rate that we could not expect to continue with the sport next year."
The box score follows:

Committee Approves Kilday Draft Bill
Washington (INS)—By vote of 23 to 2, the House military affairs committee approved today the Kilday bill to place married men with children at the bottom of the draft list and to order selective service quotas on a state wide basis.
This action came after 33 senators joined in an agreement to halt the draft of farm workers while 27 senators agreed to sponsor a measure directing that the army furlough until January 1, 1944, all farmer soldiers who are now in the United States. The Kilday bill, submitted by Representative Kilday (D-Tex), signifies that draft registrants will be taken in the order of single men, single men with "collateral dependents," married men without children, and finally married men with children.
CIO Union Endorses Pay-As-You-Go Plan
Washington. (INS)—Warning that many workers are not going to have money enough to pay their taxes this year, the CIO Monday endorsed the principal of pay-as-you-go and collection at the source, but opposed the Ruml plan on the ground that it discriminates in favor of wealthy individuals.
The Union's position was outlined by Philip Murray, its president in a statement read to the House ways and means committee by Nathan Cowan, legislative representative of the organization.
Declaring that workers have been caught in a spiral of rising prices, Murray said:
Swarthout Replaces Ehrlich As Teacher Of Cello Playing
"They are not able, many of them, to meet their new tax obligations in a single payment on March 15, or even in three or four installments. They ask that their tax obligation be spread out over the year in a manner such that they may make a small payment out of each pay check and in that way the payment is made each time they receive their pay checks."
Dean D. M. Swarthout will replace John Ehrlich as cello teacher in the School of Fine Arts. Ehrlich left this week for the Army.
Dean Swarthout was in charge of cello instruction at the University from 1923 to 1935. He studied under Louis Amato, second chair celloist of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and under Julius Klengel, concert master of the famous Gewandhaus orchestra at Leipzig. Dean Swarthout went to Germany as a cello major, and passed the examinations for the Royal Conservatory entrance on cello.

Bill To Allow Dependency Rating For Students Over 18 Merits Attention
The state of New York is considering a bill which should be of interest to every American university student, and to the parents of those students. The bill would in part allow income tax reductions for those parents who have children over 18 who are still full-time high school or college students, listing such students in the category of dependents.
With both federal and state governments recognizing the importance of education in the post-war world, the plan would be a commendable one for both those branches of government to adopt as a means of encouraging the education of American youths. Certainly, in most cases, those students in attendance at universities are by necessity more of a financial drain upon their parents than they were at any time during their younger years. Yet, just when the support of their offspring makes its biggest financial demands, the parents find themselves faced with additional taxes through the loss of the claim of dependency.
Every effort should be made to encourage increased enrollment in institutions of higher learning following the war. Financial losses by such a move on the part of the government would be more than compensated for by the gain of an intelligent citizenry, capable of holding the reins of government or of choosing those who will hold the reins.
Just how far the bill will go in New York is yet a question. It has the backing of Governor Dewey, and for that reason, if no other, seems to have at least a possibility of passage. If other states and the federal government then fall in line, college students and their parents will owe a debt of gratitude to the New York legislature.
Present Site of Tunis has been Land Mark of Many Historic Wars
Tunis, almost the last seaport stronghold of the Axis in Africa, may suffer the fate of Carthage before the Battle of North Africa is over.
Carthage, situated near the site of modern Tunis on a peninsula extending into the Mediterranean sea, was established as a trading post about 850 B.C. by the Phoenicians.
Because of its splendid location, it became one of antiquity's greatest commercial centers, and by 300 B.C. it had a population of 700,000. Its commercial supremacy was viewed by the Romans as a grave menace to their rising glory, and war followed inevitably. In 146 B.C. the third Punic War was ended after the Romans utterly defeated the Carthaginians and destroyed the city following a desperate siege of two years; the burning of the city lasted two weeks.
Carthage was rebuilt in 29 B.C. by the Roman Emperor, Augustus, who saw the commercial value of a city situated at a sharp bend of the Mediterranean. It developed into one of the finest Roman cities during the second and third centuries of Christendom.
The Vandal King, Gaiseric, made it his capital in 439 A.D., and nearly a century later it was wrested from the Vandals by Belisarius, the great general of Emperor Justinian. In 698
Just Wondering
Why the Library does not keep files of local and surrounding papers for the benefit of ambitious students who can often use back copies for reference work.
Carthage was destroyed by the Arabs and was never rebuilt.
Modern Tunis had its beginning in the 15th century when the Moors, driven out of Spain, settled in North Africa, and using the sheltered harbor of old Carthage as one of their hideouts, began a career of piracy which forced all European nations to pay tribute for "protection." This piracy was finally ended in 1815 when a U.S. fleet commanded by Stephen Decatur sailed into the harbors of the pirate's chief ports and forced them to sign peace treaties.
In 1883 Tunis became a French Protectorate; it remained so until the Nazis took over the country last fall when the United Nations invaded North Africa.
When Axis forces are pushed back to the sea, the Nazi may do as they did at Rostov last week—burn the city and thus make it another Carthage. On top of all this the enemy will probably clutter the harbor with wrecked ships to render the port of Tunis useless for some months, as a springboard for an invasion of the continent through Sicily and Italy.-M.H.
From the sudden changes in weather which have occurred this winter, one might suppose the weather to be in charge of two or more federal agencies with slightly overlapping authority. -K.C. Star.

FIGHTING WORDS delivered by Western Electric Radio
Wherever American soldiers ride into battle in roaring "hell buggies," they get their orders over radio telephone sets. So do pilots of Army bombers and fighting planes—and the commanders of the Navy's deadly PT boats.
The Signal Corps needs great quantities of field telephones, wire and switchboards to get the message through. Aboard large naval vessels are battle announcing systems and sea-going telephones.
Sixty years of experience in making Bell Telephones gave Western Electric the "know how" to speed equipment that helps "keep'em in contact."

War Causes Changes In Journalism 'Shack'
By DALE ROBINSON
More women coming in and more men going out, that's the story in the journalism department this year. That's the story in lots of other places, too, but heretofore journalism has been peculiarly a man's field, and the change somehow seems more startling to persons who knew the "Shack" of former years.
For instance, at this time last year, three women were listed the editorial page as staff members of the Daily Kansan. Now
For instance, at this time las on the editorial page as staff mer there are 11 women occupying positions of major importance on the paper, including the "big three" — managing, Sunday, and campus editorships. Beginning tomorrow, a woman will be co-sports editor!
Faculty positions in the journalism department have undergone changes, also. Short two members, an assistant professor and an instructor, the department has eliminated courses and piled up work of remaining professors. High School Carriers
Circulation and distribution of the Kansan has become a problem. In preceding years, University students were employed to deliver the paper. Now such men can secure more lucrative jobs, and junior and senior high school boys carry the paper. This has occasioned a considerable loss in delivery efficiency and speed.
Lawrence streets, many of which are unmarked and do not run in geometrical exactitude, are unfamiliar to the young carriers, who up to now have been delivering part of their routes after dark. Business Office Changes
Personnel in the clerical side of the Kansan business office has undergone a complete change since the first of this year, and this and short - handedness prevent quick compilation of mailing and route changes. Students are partly responsible for this because they failed to bring in their activity slips at the beginning of the semester. Slips turned in late mean considerable extra labor for the over-worked staff.
Addressing plates which stamp names on Kansans for the mail are made of metal, and securing of any metal presents problems.
Advertising Is Same
Advertising in the Kansan has been running about the same as last year, proportionately, but total revenues from this source are down because of the fewer issues this year. Local advertising has "held up pretty well," according to Prof. Elmer F. Beth, acting chairman of the department, while national advertising has increased slightly. Mr. Beth stated that last year was poor for both kinds of advertising and
that conclusions drawn about this year might not mean much.
Metal Is Hard To Get
Government officials have announced another 10 per cent reduction in newsprint consumption, effective April 1, which makes a 20 per cent reduction now ordered. This is not expected to affect the Kansan and other small papers of eight pages because papers of this size cannot be reduced 20 per cent. Because of mechanical difficulties small papers such as the Kansan can not drop just one page. Most of these tabloid papers can not drop two pages when printing, and the only reduction that could be made would be to drop four pages.
Metal for engravings is becoming harder to get and this shortage will become serious in the near future, unless drives to get printers to turn in old and unusable cuts is successful. T. C. Ryther, director of the University Press, has had men working since last fall, sorting and tearing up cuts lying around the printing shop in the basement of the Journalism building.
College papers all over the country are being affected by these same conditions. Some have ceased publishing, as did a student weekly at the University of Missouri, while others have cut down on the number of pages or editions. Last spring the Daily Kansan reduced the number of issues from five to four a week.
Members Are Proud
ROCK CHALK TALK--officials at the mid-week last night. They were (honest, fellas.) inspecting the shoe situation on the campus and the wear and tear on shoe leather.
Members of the Kansan staff, however, are proud of progression this year in several directions. Not long ago a direct wire report from the International News Service bureau in Kansas City was installed, enabling the Kansan to give its readers coverage of important world, national, and state news.
The class in photography has found it difficult, and in some cases impossible, to secure materials. Flashbulbs require priority ratings,
A policy of more photographs, though difficult to carry out because of the scarcity of zinc and copper, has been adopted. Pierre Kimball has been doing much of the photography for the Kansan, and "Duke" d'Ambra, downtown photographer, makes the engravings.

Artificial poll: Marjorie Amend, Ricker hall, was called up recently by someone who said it was the Kansan and wanted her opinion on the registration of women. Very flattered, she went around writing her folks and telling the girls to save copies of the Kansan for her. Confidentially, Marjorie, look about you for the culprits.
*****
Valentine greetings: Juanita Sheridan, Ricker hall, bought a lot of valentines and passed them out to the rest of the girls at the house, who sent them to relatives all over the country. Come Valentine's Day, David Boylan, Carrith hall, received valentines from all over the country with endearing messages written on them.
Feeling justly proud of himself, Dave bragged a little to Juanita—and she invited him down so she and the girls could see the valentines.
Fine Arts Presents Concert Over Radio
The a capella choir, under the direction of Dean D. M. Swarthout, the Women's Glee Club and the double trio, under the direction of Miss Irene Peabody, gave a half hour concert over station KFKU at 9:30 last night.
The a capella choir sang "Haec Dies Quam Fecit," a 16th century number by Palestrina; a second 16th century song, "The Lovely Month of May" by Jannequin; the six part "Cherubim Song" by Glinka; Franz's "Dedication" arranged by Noble Cain; and Stephen Foster's "The Glendy Burke" also arranged by Noble Cain.
The Women's Glee Club sang "Marie Antoinette's Song," which the French queen supposedly wrote; "Bless This House" by Brahe; and "Tales from the Vienna Woods" by Johann Straus. "Beautiful Dreamer" and "I Dream of Jeannie with the Light Brown Hair," both by Stephen Foster, were sung by the double trio. Members of the double trio are Norma Antone, Maxine McGrannahan, Hope Crittenden, Margaret Hall, Rosemary Gooch, and Norma Jean Lutz. Martha Dooley accompanied the glee club.
film production has been cut down and developing chemicals are scarce. Organizations Suffer
"Shack" organizations have suffered big changes in memberships. Only four men remain of Sigma Delta Chi, honorary journalism fraternity, only two of whom were members last year.
Theta Sigma Phi, honorary women's organization, has had an increase in membership this year, according to Virginia Tieman, president.

Not Much Happening Police Give Student Ride On Routine Night Patrol
Editor's note: Lucille Kadel, a senior in journalism, rode with the police in a patrol car from about 9 to 12:30 one night last week to get this story.
Bv LUCILLE KADEL
"There's not much happening tonight. Afraid things will be pretty dull," Jack Cheek, Lawrence police officer, predicted as I stepped into police car number 12.
As soon as my eyes became accustomed to the night blackness in the car, I was surprised to see two guns, clipped above the doors, pointing in my direction, the back seat. The gun on
the left was an automatic rifle,
the one on the right a sawed-off shotgun, Ralph Hubbell,
driver of the car, told me.
Slow Down At Beer Signs
We drove, north down Massachusetts street, turned right, and slowed down at every 'Beer for sale' or 'Beer on tap' parlor.
"Not many in there tonight," or "There're only two at the bar," or "Some guy's playing the nickel machine," the officers would remark. Their eyes were keener or more trained than mine because all I could see through the half mist and snow and steaming plate windows was a blur.
Returning from the east side of town, the officers patrolled up Massachusetts to the north edge of the city limits. Car 12's patrol specifically included the district north of eighth street, but generally included any part of town.
Hubbell drove down the street. Steam covered the car windows. Cheek rubbed clear spots on the windshield, and the radio buzzed and growled like a dentist drill.
Down the alleys of the business section we went. Hubbell switched off the car lights, and Cheek snapped on the powerful flashlight, directing its light on the barred windows, back lots, and doors.
"Wait, back up." Cheek suggested. "I think that garage door was unlocked." An investigation was made, and the door was found locked.
As we came out of an alley, a man walked up the street towards us. The officers paused. "Well, guess he's sober tonight," one remarked.
Up and down more alleys. Suddenly Cheek snapped the phone, that resembled a French phone, from the dashboard. "Car 12—Reporting North street light in 800 block out —Did you get that, Johnnie?" Radio Doesn't Contact
The radio roared and buzzed."Car 12-Testing with headquarters." No answer. There was something wrong with the radio.
Hubbell swung the car west on Eighth street, and stopped across from the parks. Cheek jumped out of the car and disappeared. "What's he doing?" I asked.
"Turning on the park lights." Hubbell answered.
Later, in the residential section, one of the men spoke. "Do you see that?" (He wasn't talking to me but I looked and saw a taxi in front of a house.)
"He wouldn't be going out after his laundry in a taxi this time of night, would he?" the conversation continued.
"That car means only one thing." Evidently the officers knew whom they were discussing. Hubbell turned the car around, switched off the lights; but by the time we came back to the house, the taxi had started down the street. Hubb
bell turned on the car lights, increased the car's speed, and followed. I held my breath. In about the third block, Hubbell overtook the taxi, turned on the siren, and forced the taxi to the curb. Cheek jumped out.
"Joe." he addressed the driver, "you're going a little fast, better watch it."
"O K, thanks."
Cheek Confirms Suspicions
Cheek came back to car 12 and the taxi drove on. "They had it all right. Did you see him put it in his pocket? I would liked to have searched him, but then he could have tipped off the house and we wouldn't be able to raid it later." he explained.
We went past more beer parlors.
Not a drunk was on the sidewalk;
not a fight was in action. One of
the men apologized for the absence
of activity, and said that on Saturday
night they usually had to break
up about three fights in one place
From 10 to 11 o'clock was lunch hour. After lunch the men would be on duty until six in the morning.
Parked Car Is Spotted
While covering the town again, the officers spotted a parked car on a side street. Cheek flashed a light on it. A man and women moved in the car. "If there is no one in the car, we usually stop to investigate. The car might be abandoned," I was told, and then asked, "Did you ever have someone flash a light on you?"
About 11:30, when we were back
Three University student speakers came home with a share of the honors in the 11th annual forensic tournament at St. John's College at Winfield last weekend.
Three Speakers Win Top Honors
Bob Hutchinson, sophomore, won first in both the extemporaneous and impromptu speaking contests. Larry Miller, freshman, won first place in the oratorical declamation contest, second in the oratory contest, and third in impromptu speaking. Bill Conboy, freshman, was second best in extemporaneous speaking.
The tournament was excluded to junior college students and freshmen and sophomores in senior colleges. The schools competing, in addition to the University, were Southwestern college, Friends University, St. John's College, Independence Junior College, Sterling College, and Hutchinson Junior College.
on Massachusetts street, Hubbell pulled the car to the curb. Cheek produced some keys, left us, unlocked a box on the traffic light and switched the lights to yellow
The University debate team dropped out in the semi-finals of the debate tournament, which was won by Southwestern.
Later, Cheek noticed a car with a certain license plate. While he searched the car, the desk sergeant's voice came over the radio. The message was not distinct because of the interference, and the officers reported to the station. Someone had turned in a complaint. A woman was disturbing the neighbors. Must be disturbing.
Might Be Action At Five
"Stick around until five o'clock and you may see some action," was told. Five o'clock seemed a long time to "stick around," so I asked to be taken home.
"Well, the speeders weren't speeding, the bootleggers weren't boot-legging, and the drunks weren't drunk. Sorry it was such a dul evening," the officers apologized.

This year's prize was a volume on French Louisiana, entitled "Histoire Mervielleuse de la Louisiane Francaise," by Regine Hubert-Robert. The book carried an inscription indicating the Petain government as the donor, but Prof. Shoemaker assured the language club that neither the award by the department nor acceptance by Miss Morrill had any political significance. The prize was first offered by the French Government in 1939.

Basic Tax Laws May Be Changed
Topeka—(INS)—The Kansas Senate was at work today on proposed changes in the basic tax laws recommended by the Legislative Council some time ago.
The upper house expected to spend most of the day working on the important measures, one of which would change the entire system of local assessing and authorize and direct full-time assessors.
A bill receiving final approval of the Senate was one reducing the age limit of chauffeurs and bus drivers for the duration of the war. Another measure to receive final action in the Senate was a bill to give special school bus privileges to the county high schools of Wyandotte, Anderson, and Lyon counties.
The House judiciary committee killed the Malone bill which would give the legislators 15 cents a mile allowance whenever they made trips home.
The House is slated to open up tonight on the controversial pre-war time bill which would put Kansas clocks back on the old time basis.

Students in all organized or boarding houses where ration books are in the hands of one member of the house or the housemother will not have to make a personal appearance at the ration board to get their second book, George Wetzel, of the local ration board, announced yesterday. The person in charge of ration books for the house may obtain books for all members
between March 1 and 10, if the house is listed at the board as an institution.
Those students not eating at any organized or boarding house who are still holding their own ration books may sign for their second book between Feb. 22 and Feb. 27 at the local ration board in the Community building here in Lawrence, Mr. Wetzel said. If they wish they may send their books home, but it is not necessary he added: Neither is it necessary for a person who obtained his first ration book at home last year to send it home to get another one, he said. May Get Books Separately
Although every holder of a ration book may get a second book personally at the board, it would be more convenient, if the person lives in an organized house, to have one person from that house get the books for all, Mr. Wetzel said.
It is necessary, however, for each student in an organized house to sign a declaration as he did when he originally got his ration book. But the person in charge of ration books for the house may get enough declaration cards for members of his house, have each person sign one at the house, and return the cards to the ration board.
Signs Declaration
This person must then sign a blanket declaration for all the members of the house, and this declaration must be signed at the ration board. Then, the second ration books for all the members of the house may be secured by the person who is in charge of them between March 1 and March 10.
Condition of Gandhi In Three-Week Fast Is Causing Anxiety
Bombay, (INS)—Considerable anxiety was expressed yesterday over the condition of the 73-year-old Mohandas K. Gandhi, spiritual leader of millions of Hindus, who now is in the tenth day of a 21-day fast.
An official Indian government communique said Gandhi's heart action is feebler.
Three Indian members of the Viceray's council resigned Wednesday without explanation, but it was clear they felt that Gandhi should be unconditionally released. He is being held prisoner in the palace of the Aga Khan.

F.D.R. Promises Aid for China
Washington, (INS) — President Roosevelt, in the presence of Madame Chiang Kai-Shek, today pledged that American aid to China will be increased just "as fast as the Lord will let us."
At an extraordinary press conference, held jointly by the Chief Executive and the wife of China's fighting generalissimo, the President declared that everyone in Washington is pledged to hurry up and increase all possible aid to China in that nation's long fight against the common enemy-Japan.
At the same time, Mr. Roosevelt reiterated the American strategy plans involving the severing of Japanese communications lines with her conquered territories in the South Pacific and using China as the most important land base from which to strike at the Japanese island empire itself.
Madame Chiang, talking to reporters, re-echoed President Roosevelt's statement that aid to China would be brought "as fast as the Lord will let us," but added that she also recalls another saying which was "the Lord helps those who help themselves."
Seniors Will Have Breakfast on May 16
The annual senior breakfast will be at 8:15 Sunday morning, May 16, in the Memorial Union building, according to Georgia Ferrel, chairman of the senior breakfast committee. Despite the fact that senior week activities are being cut to a minimum because of the war, the faculty and student committee on commencement decided to have the breakfast as usual. The class history and class prophecy will be read, and the traditional peace pipe will be smoked.
Members of Miss Ferrel's committee are Barbara Koch, Wiley Mitchell, and Arthur Black.
Five Men Pledge Sigma Delta Chi
Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalism, fraternity, has pledged the following men, all majors in journalism: Matt Heueritz, and Dale Robinso, both college seniors; Bill Haage, Jimmy Gunn, college juniors and Paul Brownlee; college sophomore.

Those who have already contributed will be given tags to wear on Thursday, and will not be approached again. A matinee at 4:30 Thursday afternoon showing old-fashioned movies in Fraser theater will be open to those with tags, Althea Shuss, lieutenant in CVC, announced today
Square Dance Is Tomorrow Night
Square dancing for University students, faculty members, and their friends will be sponsored by the physical education department from 7:30 to 9 o'clock tomorrow night in Robinson gymnasium.
Instruction in fundamental steps will be offered from 7:30 to 8 o'clock for those who are not familiar with square dancing. Each figure will be demonstrated before the dancers are asked to perform it during the dancing from 8 to 9 o'clock.
Miss Ruth Hoover, assistant professor of physical education, has suggested that dancers may come as dates or "stag." The stags will be put in couples for the dancing.
Plans may be made for more square dances to be held on Fridays of alternating weeks.
WEATHER Continued mild.

The second work is a sonata for violin and piano, with three movements and a cadenza. It was begun in Lawrence just a year ago and finished in Syracuse last summer. This work will be played with Karl Kuersteiner, of the School of Fine Arts's violin faculty, taking the violin part, and the composer, himself, at the piano.
The premiere performance of two of his most recent works, both composed in the past year, will be offered by Robert Palmer, pianist, composer, and instructor in musical theory in the School of Fine Arts, Monday night, Feb. 22, when he joins Miss Meribah Moore, soprano and professor of voice, in a School of Fine Arts faculty recital.

Members of the Civil Air Patrol study a basic course of infantry drill, first aid, and other phases of civilian defense, before beginning specialized study of meteorology, radio, photography, and navigation.
The Civil Air Patrol is cooperating directly with the program of Civilian Defense in Lawrence, and is under the Army Air Corps. Enlistment in the CAF is for the duration.
University students and faculty members interested in joining the Civil Air Patrol may meet with the present group at 7 o'clock Tuesday evening in the Community building, W. C. Hunsinger, of the Hunsinger Taxi Co., said today. Any person more than 16 years old who is interested in aviation is eligible for membership.
Mr. Palmer's first work, written while at his home in Syracuse, N. Y., last summer, is a movement from a "Trio for Surlings," a number of a tranquil and reflective character. It will be played by James Lerch, violin; Eugene Ninger, viola; and Glenn Royer, cello.

The sonata, as conceived by Mr. Palmer, is an expression—particularly in the first and finale movements—of the terrific drive and energy of the 20th Century America. It is a work of great intricacy and power, according to those who have heard it in preparation, and its first performance will be awaited with unusual interest."

for a conference with Dr. J. D. Stranathan, chairman of the department of physics.
For nearly ten years, Stranathan and his associates in the physics department have been engaged in research work, in a project of developing "electrets" which the Kansas scientist describes as consisting of a fusion of waxes, notably resins and caranauba, and then charging the solidified substance with electricity. The mass, Dr. Stranathan pointed out, remains electrified permanently. The use of the material to which the British government will subject it as a war product, is of course, a military secret.

Evolution of Technique
Research in this field has been going on at several institutions throughout the country, but that carried on at the University has apparently been outstanding. A good deal of interest previous to that of the British government, has been by two of the nations leading manufacturers, who have made overtures to the University for the establishment of research assistantships on campus, for possible commercial exploitation of the project.
Dr. Stranathan pointed out that research here has been largely in studying different methods of manufacturing the "electrets," their electrical properties, and how these properties are influenced by the different methods of manufacture. The research at Kansas has resulted in the evolution of a technique of manufacture which appears to have excelled those studied at other institutions. It was such a condition that attracted the interest of the British government.
Forsyth carried away with him, many samples of the product developed according to the University technique, and discussed with University authorities the possible delivery of more should the "electrets" measure up to the anticipations of the British.
Fresh Vegetables Will Be Included Under Price Control
Washington, (INS)—The OPA announced today that price control will be extended within the next two months to most fresh vegetables—one of the last of the foodstuffs in the average family's means which has not yet been put under price control.
Officials explained that price ceilings of fresh vegetables will be necessary because of recent sharp advances and indications that further price pressure may result from accelerated demand in view of the forthcoming canned fruit and vegetable rationing program.

University Aids In War Projects
At least three of the projects under investigation through Industrial Research Fellowships established at the University by the Kansas Industrial Development Commission, have been given cognizance by the Federal Government as having important potentialities in the war effort, and another promises to reveal, when completed, an important contribution to the Kansas oil industry as well as to $ ^{*} $
sas of industry as well as to the conservation of national resources.
These facts were disclosed today in a report from the office of Chancellor Deane W. Malott, which outlined the projects now under investigation and summarized those which have been completed since the fellowships were established at the University three years ago.
Alumina Project
Current project which has elicited the recognition of the War Production Board is that designed to check and refine processes developed last summer by the Geological Survey on extraction of alumina from Kansas clays. Alumina is the substance from which aluminum is made. The importance of this project to the war effort which attracted the attention of the WPB, was caused by the threatened shortage of this critical war material. The formula and processes are secret.
Projects completed last year and the results of which have been filed with the government in connection with the war effort were a survey of newer gas fields in western Kansas for helium, and spectographic techniques in exploration for lead and zinc ore bodies.
In Third Year
One of the current projects, which is now in its third year of investigation, is the investigation of optimum oil production rates. It has been concerned with discovery of the most important rate of oil production—the rate which produces relatively more oil and less water. Rather startling results have been apparent and announcement of the formula secured from the investigation is expected to be a major contribution to the oil industry. This project has also been subsidized by three major petroleum companies and the results are being watched with great interest by oil producers all over the nation.
Two other current projects under investigation, upon which the attention of Kansas industrialists is focussed, are the investigation of the chemical composition of Kansas limestone, and the testing of natural cements of Kansas. Work in the limestone project consists of analyses of samples of limestone and shale collected from all parts of the state by the Geological Survey, the results of which will make it possible to supply so any proposed industry the data on the grades of limestone in the state most suited to its purpose. In the cement research, an investigation is being conducted to determine whether or not concrete made from cement which is a blend of portland and natural cements has physical properties superior to concrete made from portland cement.

Stabilized Building Blocks
Another project, completed last year, which attracted national attention, was the production of stabilized earth building blocks at the University. Soil cement blocks built on the formula developed through this project have been used to construct an Engineering Experiment Station Building with more than 7,000 square feet of floor space, on the University campus. This building, incidentally, will house the new Kansas Industrial Development Commission's plastics laboratory to be established in the immediate future.
Other investigations undertaken or completed earlier were:
Production of electrolytic chlorine a study intended to show the possibility of the location of a plant in Kansas which could compete effectively with outside sources in the production of a large amount of chlorine and allied compounds.
Production of Carbon Black
Production of carbon black, a study of chemical processes which would use raw materials from Kansas in the production of this important substance.
The economics of ceramics, an investigation of the development and location of plants for production of brick, pottery and chinaware, with particular reference to raw materials, markets and transportation.
Other projects investigated through the industrial fellowships were the efficiency of Kansas coal; a study of tourist travel in Kansas; and an investigation of the commercial possibilities of diatomaceous marl. Some of these reports have been published, and all have been filed with the Kansas Industrial Development Commission.

Rubber Pile Low Jeffers Says
Washington, (INS) — In his second "progress report" to Congress, Rubber Czar William M. Jeffers said yesterday that the US will be down to a stock pile of 104,000 tons of rubber by next Jan. 1, a level, "too low for comfort."
Jeffers revised his calculation of the "irreducible minimum," however, asserting that stocks could not be permitted to fall below 100,000 tons "without a critical dislocation of the entire military, industrial and civilian economies."
Co.
On Nov. 3, 1942, he informed Congress that the Baruch investigating committee had "definitely established" that stocks could not be permitted to drop below 120,000 tons 'at any time.'
The rubber director, who recently emerged from a rousing "priorities battle" with a "go-ahead" for 43.6 percent of the huge 1,037,000 ton synthetic program, estimated that the US will produce only 241,000 tons of synthetic rubber in 1943—113,000 tons less than estimated three months ago.
Jap Merchant Marine Faces Expanding Fleet of U S Submarines
Washington, (INS) — Japan's dwindling merchant marine faces an expanding American Submarine Fleet which already has slowed down the enemy's war effort through ceaseless attacks against Pacific supply lines.
Due to the phenomenal success of the US submarine campaign to date and the fact that the American undersea craft construction program has been stepped up, a sharp increase in enemy sinkings is expected soon.

School Gives Record Number of Men to Battle
Albuquerque, N. M. (ACP)—The University of New Mexico is believed to have given the largest number of boys to actual battle, in proportion to enrollment, of any institution of higher education in the country, says a report from the university's news service, listing 11 former students as dead in the services, 24 as prisoners, and 14 others as missing.
JAYHAWKER
Estimates of the number now in the army, navy, marine corps, and coast guard run close to 1,000. The university's enrollment the first semester was about 1,200; and second semester registration is expected to show a total of about 1,000. These figures represent sharp decreases since the fall of 1940, when the total ran over 1,700.

May Ask Missou To Dry Border
。
Topka, (INS) — Kansas may ask its neighboring state of Missouri to go "partially dry" to protect citizens of dry Kansas from the temp-tations of liquor.
Representative Harold Malone, Wichita Republican, introduced a resolution in the house to memorialize the governor and legislature of Missouri to pass a law making the "show me" state dry along the Kansas border. It also proposed to ban the liquor signs in Missouri which might tempt Kansans to drink.
The house was in a determined mood today. Speaker Hall Wunsch told the house that they could not override laws passed by Congress but the legislators passed a bill putting clocks back on pre-war standard basis by a vote 70 to 45. Leaders expected the bill to be killed in the Senate, however.

As A Speaker, He's A Fine Halfback Watered Notes Ruined Evans
Bv MARY MORRILL
Ray Evans will never write another speech. Last November he worked for hours on an oratorical effort to be delivered before the student body of his old alma mater, Wyandotte high school in Kansas City, Kansas. He practiced behind barred doors and wrote a detailed outline in ink.
then came the great evening and tragedy. Just before his dinner program a girl beside him spilled her
Then came the great evenin part on the after dinner progra water. Ray's notes ran to the' point of illegibility. He took the soaked papers to the stage with him, but he could neither read them, nor remember what they said. It was his most embarrassing moment.
The next day Kansas City papers remarked about how the students had cheered wildly even though "as a speaker Evans proved to be a much better football player."
Administrative Work Interests
Twenty-year-old Ray has three brothers and two sisters. He is a business major and is interested in some sort of administrative work which involves handling men after graduation and the war. Although he would rather play football, basketball, or baseball than do anything else in the world, Ray has

he can never remember being more exuberant than he was last fall when the Phi Delt's were playing a championship baseball game against the Pfugerville Pflashes.

isn't encouraging her. Once back in Wyandotte Ray's older brother was injured on the football field. Mrs. Evans was at the game and before her son could be carried out she had sprinted down from the bleachers, across the field, and was holding his head in her lap on the 35-yard line.
Two honors have thrilled Ray more than any of the host of others he has received. The first was making the all-state football and basketball teams during his senior year in high school (not even being on the third All-American football team this season overshadows it). The second was being crowned Per King of the university at the Jay Janes' Vice Versa last fall. Ray still has the crown and the gallon of gasoline he was awarded for winning the latter honor hidden away in his closet.
Ray takes his training very seriously—in fact he hasn't broken it for 13 years when, at the tender age of seven while out with "the boys" on a picnic, he smoked his first and last cigarette. It made him deathly ill.

Kansas State Takes 7 Losses In 7 Starts
Kansas State stretched its Big Six losing streak to seven losses in seven starts Wednesday night at Lincoln where the Nebraska Cornhuskers defeated the Wildcats 50-47 in an overtime basketball game. The game had gone into the overtime period with the score at 43-all.
Bob Heinzelman, Husker guard, was the game's leading scorer with 14 points.
Students Asks For Varsity Ball Team
Heading the list were some of last year's starters: Warren Hodges, Delmar Green, Pody Brumback, and others. Ray Evans has also signed. This is the first year that Evans has reported for varsity baseball. Last year as a sophomore he pitched the Phi Delt's to an intramural softball championship. Evans is one of the best baseball players Kansas City has ever turned out, according to many of the City's experts.
Varsity baseball may be played this spring if the number of students interested is any indication. At noon today 40 students had signed a petition asking the University to organize a baseball team.
If the University does decide to sponsor the team, Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen will coach it. Bryce Kresie, kid-brother of Knute Kresie, last year's star pitcher, has added his name to the list. Some say that Bryce can show Knute some tricks with the horsehide.
In the only intramural basketball game played last night, Battenfeld hall defeated Theta Tau in a low scoring affair, 24 to 15. Sigma Phi Epsilon forfeited to Sigma Alpha Epsilon and the Beta Theta Pi B team won by a forfeit over John Moore co-op.

Take it or leave it
Shucks, it's happening everywhere. The Oklahoma Daily has a woman sports editor. But cast aside your fears, this is only a temporary arrangement.
Headline of the Week
"Kansas May Fall Before Iowa State . . . We Hope." Quoted from the Daily Nebraskan. Didn't they forget themselves for a minute? We still have Johnny Buescher.
Ray Evans is being threatened by Dean Nasmith, trainer, who insists that any player who made as many shots as Evans did at the Iowa State game and failed to hit the basket once should be thrown off the team.
Evan's Defense
"You're mistaken," answered Evans. "I shot three times and made four baskets."
Honor for Allen
Coach Allen was named last week by the Helm's Foundation as the nation's outstanding basketball coach. He manages to keep K. U. basketball in the limelight.
By the way, Phog Allen spoke to the Stillwater Quarterback club at noon on the day of the Oklahoma Aggies game, and in his own words, really gave them hell. He said, "Henry Iba is a man who keeps his word, but sometimes it is hard to get him to give his word." He also told them how disgusted everybody up here was after the Aggie game in January.
To continue with beefing about the Oklahoma Aggies, Allen claimed that the Aggies publicity man who, although he had been told otherwise, sent out in his press releases that Black would play, and upped the height of the Kansas players—now Schnellbacher has attained the stature of 6 feet 4.
My, Otto, How You've Grown!
Professional Jealousy
Again from the Daily Nebraskan comes the interesting paragraph, "Next time KU invades the coliseum, we suggest making a direct hose connection between the nearest faucet and Dr. Allen's mouth." The Daily Nebraskan assigned two sports staff members (so they say) to carefully count the pints of water consumed by Phog. The total was 22 pints, according to their count.
Kansas is still a dry state.

"Nineties" On The Hill Gay Old Times
---
By JEAN JONES
In the early days when "Ole" Dobbin could trot out West Campus road blindfolded and even sophisticates were popping corn or pulling toffee on Saturday nights, social life at the University of Kansas was on the incline. The fact of the matter is "Grandpa" had a pretty high old time in those days.
One of the most economical forms of entertainment 50 years the Bowersock theater. For the nominal
One of the most economic ago was an evening at the Bow sum of 5 cents even the financially deflated college Joe could enjoy an evening of tragedy, drama, comedy, and occasionally, a burlesque show. The students usually congregated early in the balcony. As University couples arrived, the refined hoodlums would loudly announce in unison the names of the late comers. When the curtain went up, the gallery gods would shout comments to the actors. Sometimes balcony conduct became so bad that the management had to remove the chief offenders.
In 1903, the Patee theater began showing movies. The press, church, and the legitimate theater were quick to brand movies "immoral." The unfavorable comment about motion pictures served to increase box office returns at the Patee. So great was the migration from the Bowersock to the Patee that even a burlesque cutie couldn't sell enough tickets at the old theater to meet the overhead. In 1929, the Bowersock theater, now the Jayhawker, changed to movies.
"Jelly Joints" Popular
Although "jellying" is a twentieth century expression, the students of the 1800's and 1900's had the same general idea. The first student "hangout" was opened by George Falley in a basement room in Fraser hall. The furnishings included a stove and a lunch counter. The place was popular with students, but after a helper of Falley's nearly burned the building down one night, the proprietor closed the eating house.
In 1899. William "Billy" Reynolds, '90, opened a lunch wagon on wheels in front of Fraser hall. Soon after the opening, Reynolds converted his eating house into a permanent structure. Business was rushing, and before long "The Dog House" became the gossip house and beauty barometer of the campus. Early in 1900, Reynolds closed his eating house and not until the opening of "Brick's" in 1912 did students have a permanent gustatory establishment.
Boat Trips On Kaw
Students had modified steak fries even in "Grandpa's" time. Among the memories of many "old grads" are boat excursions on the Kaw that as often as not led to no place in particular. Of course slow and easy Myrtle kept up her end of the bargain when hitched to a chummy
Track Squad Trials Held This Afternoon For Big Six Meet
Trials for the Kansas track squad will be held this afternoon to find men to compete in the Big Six indoor meet at Kansas City, Feb. 27. Coach Gwinn Henry announced today.
The final choice of the squad will be decided as soon as the eligibility ruling comes from the Big Six officials on the freshmen, he added.
"Since this meet may be the only one," Henry continued, "I hope the ruling will be made quickly."

The first round of the play-offs will begin Thursday night of next week. Competing in the elimination tournament will be the winners and runners-up in each of the four divisions. The winner of the tourney will be adjudged the intramural champion of the year.
All the games in the play-offs, with the possible exception of the finals, will be played on the small courts, Henry Shenk, of the department of physical education, said today. The finalists will be allowed to determine between them whether the final game shall be played on a large or small court.
Fraternities and literary clubs provided most of the dances, dinners, and programs during the early days. Lack of chapter houses, however, made frequent entertaining impossible. Usually a group would gather at some local student's house for a taffy pull or an evening of "wink 'em" or "spin the bottle."

The more daring students strayed from the straight and narrow ways into the throes of card playing and drinking. In those days, because the University was attempting to establish its reputation, anyone caught imbibing or playing poker was suspended from school or put on probation.

The present personnel of the bureau consists of Geraldine Buehler, Lois Blackburn Wilson, Edith Ann Fleming, Mary Cheney, Edward Hansen, Bob Hutchinson, Newell Jenkins, Max Webster, Bill Hough, Bob Akey, Bob Plumb, John Waggoner, Dick Royer, and Samuel Alexander.
The student speakers participating in the program are organized into a Victory Speakers Bureau. The speakers will be sent out to speak before high school assemblies, clubs, and other similar organizations who request their services, to give the public enlightening and unbiased information concerning the war effort. Special stress will be laid upon such subjects as taxation, new concepts of geography, the Culbertson plan, the Beveridge plan, manpower problems, and the future of air travel.
Fewer Students in Britain
The "Speaking for Victory program, sponsored by the department of speech here, will start soon, E. C. Buehler, professor of speech, has announced. Requests for the student speakers are coming in rapidly from various parts of the state, he said.
Plumb and Royer will go to Nebraska next week to present extemporaneous speeches and participate in debates before various audiences upon the subjects, manpower and post-war organization.
Registration in British Universities has fallen from the 1939 figure of 50,000 students to 37,000. The number of women enrolled, 11,000, remains the same.

Ray doesn't think either basketball or football is an excuse for inferior scholastic work. Practice cuts down jellying hours but doesn't infringe on study time, he decided when he first entered the university and has since proved the point by making Owl Club, junior men's honor society.
His salient characteristic is modesty. The story is true that when he first reported for K.U. football practice and saw all the big players he almost didn't go out. Even now Ray honestly believes luck alone is responsible for the fact that he plays varsity football and basketball.

Rickenbacker Loses Prestige By His Campaign Against Labor
Liberals are viewing the recent activities of war hero Eddie Rickenbacker with concern, for up to the present the World War I ace has failed to show in politics anything like the ability he demonstrated in military and industrial affairs.
To date he has dedicated most of his time, since returning from the Pacific, to a speaking tour marred by constant criticism of labor groups in this country. The conservative press has welcomed such outbursts, and has played them up to the limit in its constant battle against labor.
Rickenbacker has chosen to ignore statistics which show that American labor in this war is in reality doing a tremendous job. The world has never known such a vast scale of production. Instead, Rickenbacker has put before the public a few selected instances of labor misbehavior, inevitable when one considers the millions of men and women engaged in production. Similar incidents, perhaps more numerous, could be pointed out for every economic group.
It is no secret that Rickenbacker's own group big business has not kept its own skirts clean. Men of the ability of Thurman Arnold have testified repeatedly to that effect. Nor is it to be forgotten that Rickenbacker's membership in that economic group has no doubt influenced his views to a considerable extent. Rickenbacker is listed in Who's Who for 1942-43 as president, general manager and director of Eastern Air Lines, Inc., and has served as vice-president of North American Avigation, Inc., vice-president and director of sales of the Fokker Aircraft Corporation of America, and vice-president of American Airways, Inc. While he claims to speak for the American soldier, there is more than a faint suspicion in some quarters that he is in reality at present the voice of labor haters.
A continuation of such activities on the part of Rickenbacker will serve only to lower his well earned prestige with the mass of American people. Rick should watch his step lest he join one Charles Augustus Lindbergh in the ranks of the fallen heroes.—J.D.K.
Malott Warns of Material Change In Post-War World Living
Widely quoted in the collegiate press throughout the country is a recent statement made by Chancellor Deane W. Malott, which received all too little attention on this campus.
Declared the administrator: "Science has transformed the physical facts of our material existence with an acceleration dating back to the start of the industrial revolution. Material change has unstabilized our economic, social, and political life. We have fought and won a world war, made a peace which did not recognize the fundamental nature of changed and changing conditions, and have failed to recognize that science has speeded up the world and brought it closer together. Instability and dislocation continue to increase and have culminates in a world cataclysm the import of which is just beginning to be recognized."
Thus did one of the more farsighted members of the academic world, usually as a group
Just Wondering
If some overly-ambitious "junior commando" didn't have something to do with the missing clock hands on the east scoreboard in Hoch auditorium.
slow to recognize the signs of progress, timid to express the doctrine of change, show that he, at least, knew that the world will be far different from the one which entered the war. He also served a warning that it is largely the responsibility of educated youth to see that these changes are made in the right direction toward democracy, away from authoritarianism.J.D.K.
Four years ago the Kansas City Star inaugurated the system of printing a record of the car fatalities of the current year, the previous year, and the total for the previous year. The first year the number of car deaths was cut almost in half. But each year since, the percentage has been mounting until it is almost back to its original number. If a city can start such a campaign why does it have to let down after the first year? The slogan "Stop, Look, Be Careful" is reprinted after each car accident. Observance before each accident would help.
Some University students didn't get around to paying their fees in time to get their names on enrollment sheets. Result: Those in the enlisted reserves received orders to report for active duty. Frantic last minute phone calls temporarily stayed the order, but at least the students were reminded to pay their fees.

Rock Chalk Talk By JIMMY GUNN
A College Fable: Once there was an owl who was blessed with phenomenal eyesight. Whereas most owls can see only in the dark, this owl could see as well during the day. Unfortunately, though he was blessed with this sharper sight, the owl was very stupid.
So it was that the owl went flying around the forest looking here and looking there and telling all of the inhabitants of the forest what he saw. For instance, he told the bluejay that he was a cad for treating smaller birds the way he did. And he told the bear how foolish he was to sleep away three-fourths of his life. Oh, he was a very stupid owl, but his eyesight was very keen!
The owl told every creature of the forest what was wrong with him, and why. He told the squirrel how brainless he was to go chattering around the way he did. He told the snake how unpleasant he thought it was to go writhing along the damp ground all the time.
The stupid owl flew about in all kinds of weather and at all kinds of hours looking and telling. His wife became very angry with him saying, "What do you mean by staying up all hours of the day?" But he was an owl with a purpose, and an owl with a purpose cannot be diverted from his course.
It was very stupid of the owl to go around telling the truth to everyone. No one believed him. No one wanted to believe him. But still he persisted, for (as he often told himself) he could not waste the gift the gods had sent to him.
So the owl told the vulture that his table manners were deplorable and told the wolf that he drooled. He even told the mole that he was very silly to go grubbing around in the damp, dark earth when he could live outside in the fresh air and the sunshine. He told them all what fools they were to do things the way they did. He deplored the condition of the forest. It was dirty he said. And as for politics—he shuddered. There was absolutely no government. It was chaos, said the owl. And he was right.
One by one the owl's friends dropped away from him. Even his wife turned against him when he told her that he thought her latest coat in dreadful style. So the animals of the forest got together one day and drove the owl from the forest. They pecked out his eyes and left him in the fields to die. But the owl didn't die. He wandered about the fields for years and years, and he didn't say a word—ever!
Moral: Vision is a curse in the land of the blind.
GAS RATIONING Steak Frys A Casualty See New Sports
"Give me that drop" is a common complaint heard at filling stations these days; but very few motorists will discover their gas tank registering empty if they observe essential driving rules. When and if these balmy days continue, the urge for pleasure driving will grow. Steak frys may fade away for the duration; but following are a few ersatz sports to take the places of the ones that the ban on pleasure driving eliminated. It should be remembered that under the rules, a person caught driving to a tennis court or a handball wall will be tagged as a Benedict Arnold on wheels and have his 'A,' 'B,' or 'C' card removed.
succeed at this game. Badminton is a great home game. Croquet is more for the slow-moving individual. Golf muscles come into play when gripping the mallot and the true skill of a marksman is required to drive
But what can they substitute for the games they used to play when gasoline was plentiful and the phrase "fill 'er up" hadn't passed from the language? Hiking, with a picnic lunch on one arm and blankets on the other arm, will undoubtedly become the fad in dates this spring. Shoe rationing won't throttle walking, but the gas situation will curb driving, so put on your low heels and let's head for the country.
An alternative for walking and driving on steak frys might well be badminton or croquet. Badminton is a real athlete's game and is recommended to the girl searching for a "figure shaper." One must have the endurance of a basketball player and the footwork of a dancer to
Our business is to accept rationing and wartime regimentation cheerfully and patiently. Accept the inconveniences of war and we'll wager our last war bond you will have more fun doing something new in place of the customary steak fry.

Common's Defeat Labor Amendment
London, (INS)—The Labor Party amendment disapproving the government's attitude on the Beveridge Social Security Plan was defeated in the House of Commons today, 335 to 119.
The decisive vote came after an uncompromising speech in opposition to the amendment by Minister of Home Security Herbert Morrison, high-ranking Labor member of the Government.
The government's motion accepting the Beveridge plan in principle, subject to finances, and promising the adoption of a certain portion of the plan by gradual stages, was carried without a dissenting vote.
The amendment was sponsored by Laborite James Griffiths after the War Cabinet had accepted only "in principle" parts of the plan proposed by Sir William Beveridge.
All government supporters were summoned to take part in the voting on the measure, which was treated as a motion of confidence.
Chicago, (INS)—Black markets so huge that they threaten to engulf all law enforcement agencies of the OPA were pictured today by investigators and packers' representatives.
The Laborites had previously decided to support the amendment at a secret party session.
Black Markets May Engulf OPA Agencies
They declared it might require the services of the FBI and special Congressional legislation to smash the widespread black markets which have sprung up in recent weeks.
An army of 1,000 special OPA investigators throughout the country was thrown into the battle, but FBI agents refused to state whether they had been asked to cooperate.
London. — (INS) — Awards of four Distinguished Flying Crosses, 209 air medals and 31 oak leaf clusters to members of the United States Army Eighth Air Force were announced Wednesday. Virtually every state was represented in the list of awards.

Yanks Have Bloody Nose From Battle
(International News Service)
A few short words from a hard-bitten American officer on the Tunisian battle front today blew up all the mystery surrounding Field Marshal Erwin Rommel's successful attack and placed it in proper perspective.
(International News Service)
"We have had our noses bloodied a little," he told a front line correspondent of INS. "That's all. From here on we'll be tougher."
Thus the clash of men and tanks in the mud and sand of North Africa branded by pessimists as a defeat rather than as one of those inevitable setbacks, was described in the reasonable manner that only a man who has been through it can do.
Official dispatches from North African headquarters clearly indicated that Rommel's drive already had spent itself for the time being, at least, and Rommel now holds a wide corridor in South Tunisia stretching from the sea to the high range of mountains that run west of Pichon to Tebessa in Algeria proper.
With land and even air activity in Tunisia slackened, chief war interest centered on the opening of British General Montgomery's attack and upon the continuing Soviet gains in Russia.
A War Manpower commission plan to subsidize college education for 100,000 to 150,000 civilians in order to build up "a stockpile of trained manpower" was presented to the House Military Affairs committee last week by Dr. Edward C. Elliot, president of Purdue University.
May Subsidize College Educations of Civilians
Dr. Elliot, who is now serving as chief of Professional and Technical Training for the WMC, said that "we may even have to pay students to go to class."
He stated that the proposal would in no way mean a federal dictatorship of education, but rather it would be an insurance that the manpower needs of the country would be filled.
The program-a civilian counterpart of the Army-Navy Specialized Training Programs-is being planned on a five year basis, Dr. Elliot told the committee, but the actual length and extent of the program would depend entirely on the war, Men deferred by the Selective Service for physical reasons, and women would be trained to do necessary civilian work now in the post-war period under this plan, Dr. Elliot explained.
Although Dr. Elliot revealed the plan in his testimony before the House Military Affairs committee, the War Manpower commission has not yet asked congress to authorize and appropriate the necessary fuhds to carry out the program.

Fight Grows Over Music At Reception
Chicago, (INS)A bitter controversy raged yesterday over music to be played at a reception in honor of Maj. Gen. Alexander A. Vandergrift, hero of the Marines at Guadalcanal. The reception was sponsored by the Chicago Union League club and was to be held there at noon.
Quarreling were the Navy, the Marines and the Chicago Federation of Musicians. Edward A. Benkert, secretary of the Musicians Union, stood pat on a demand that 15 musicians must be paid. He said: Civilian Affairs
"This is a civilian affair and War Department orders are that military bands must not compete with civilian bands."
Col. Chester L. Fordney of the Marines had made arrangements for the Navy band from the navy pier in Chicago, under Lieut. Edward Peabody, to play. He explained:
"Gen. Vandergrift is a flag officer
Roosevelt Says Army Size Was Determined Last Fall
Washington, (INS)—President Roosevelt disclosed today that the size of the United States army had been determined last fall and totaled 7,500,000 men by Dec. 1, 1943.
The President told his press conference that the figure was decided upon six months ago and he could not understand why there was all the talk about it now.
and the orders for special honors rigidly require a band as well as a color guard. The Marines will furnish the color guard and the Navy has agreed to send a band."
The band, under regulations, plays two flourishes, two ruffles and the flag officers march. To Consult Petrillo
Col. Fordney said Benkert had promised to take the matter up with James C. Petrillo, head of the American Federation of Musicians, Benkert said, however:
"Petrillo is in New York and I can't reach him. The rules are that we must furnish the musicians and we must follow the rules. The Navy band can play, but if it does my men can stand by. They must be paid."

House Votes Funds For Dies Committee
Washington, (INS)—The House yesterday voted $75,000 to meet expenses of the Dies committee after a flurry of debate in which some members protested against Congress paying a $500 libel suit item incurred by Rep. Martin Dies (D) Tex., committee chairman. The vote was 278 to 64.
The house approved the Dies appropriations after also giving $60,000 to the special committee to investigate the federal communications commission and voting $100,000 for investigations by the appropriations committee.
Rep. Celler (D) N. Y., contended that payment of the Dies libel suit "creates a dangerous precedent." Dies Himself defended the incident on the grounds that the libel case resulted from erroneous information supplied by a committee investigator.
Rep. Vinson (D) Ga., chairman of the naval affairs committee which has been conducting sweeping investigation of contracts, supported the Dites stand saying:

The Dream of Washington Is With Roosevelt Today
"If we remain one people under an efficient government, the period is not far off . . . when we may choose peace or war, as our interest, guided by justice, shall counsel. —George Washington, Sept. 17, 1796
George Washington, the first President of the United States, was a man with a dream. He dreamed of national unity. And he made his dream come true.
Leading his ragged soldiers through the blood-stained snows and through the scarlet floods of King George's men, Washington followed his dream, fashioned it out of the raw beginnings of the colonies, and finally carved the United States of America out of the wilderness of conflicting interests.
Today, we have another President with a dream, a dream of international unity. The President dreams of freedom, the four freedoms, and peace. May he have the perseverance, the courage, and the faith to make them come true.

Alumni Seek Totem Pole
By MATT HEUERTZ
Interest in the Totem Pole, erected 50 years ago by the class of '93, is being revived this year by members of that class who plan to hold a class reunion this spring. Several members of that class are coming to the campus in a few weeks to make preparations for the reunion and to search for the pole which they believe buried under tons of charcoal in the basement of Fowler shops.
The Totem Pole was erected on June 6, 1893, as the central attraction of the Class Day celebration of commencement week. The idea came from a young man, later famous as Gen. Fred Funston, who had just returned from a trip on the Yukon river in Alaska, where he had taken special notice of totem poles and their meaning.
A telegraph pole about 40 feet long and 2 feet in diameter was brought from Kansas City, and the
services of a Lawrence contractor were secured for the carving of certain figures on the pole. It was erected on the morning of June 6 on the site where Green hall is now situated.
led "Pot Latch" which is the Indian word for toment pole raising, feasting, speech making, and general good fellowship of northern Indian tribes. Each member of the class and faculty were given Indian names for the occasion, all of which had real significance. Prof. Olin Templin was "Ko-ko-Flunk-'em-a-heap." Members of the class had such names as "Egalula-Pok-A-Chip." "Little-Hell-Of-A-Man," and "Afraid-Of-A-Squaw."
Owl Signifies Wise Seniors
At the top of the pole perched an owl, supposedly signifying the wise seniors. Below the owl was a carved image of Chancellor Snow, wearing sideburns which were chipped off later with a chisel. Next came K S U, abbreviation for Kansas State University, carved in large letters.
Below these letters was the head of a mule representing the juniors wise in the ways of passing exams. Under the mule was carved the Kansas flower, the sunflower. Next came a handsome red devil personifying the sophomores of evil repute. Then came a pair of boots and a cowboy hat representing the freshmen newly arrived from the country. At the base of the pole were the numbers '93.
The class day exercises were cal-
For several years following this occasion, commencement exercises were held around the pole and class fights took place near it. As the story goes, a class grudge was once carried too far, and one night the pole was broken in two parts. Some say that a group of over zealous vandals toted the cannon that used to stand in front of the court house to the campus, filled it with scrap iron and black powder, and blew the pole down and the gun to bits. Others are of the opinion that a cable was used to pull it down.

Music Causes Promotion--- Former Cello Professor Organizes Army Quartet
Verifying the fact that musical ability never goes unnoticed long, the University's former professor of cello and violin, Raymond Stuhl, has been promoted to the rank of a corporal in the Army Air Corps on the strength of his cello playing.
Former Professor Stuhl, who has been stationed at Camp Luna, Las Vegas, New Mex., since he left here in the middle of
October, organized a string quartet in which he plays cello, shortly after he arrived at camp. At first, according to his wife, Mrs. Alberta Stuhl, an instructor in the School of Fine Arts, the quartet played old favorites like "Old Black Joe" for the cadets around the camp. But soon they became so well known that they were playing classical string quartets from Mozart, Beethoven, and others, for music lovers in Las Vegas and surrounding towns.
Now the string quartet broadcasts 45 minutes every Sunday afternoon from a Las Vegas radio station. A major in the medical division of Camp Luna hearing their broadcasts, met and asked the men to play a house concert for his friends one night, said Mrs. Stuhl. On the strength of this concert, they have been playing at other ranches in the vicinity.
In order that the quartet might have plenty of time to practice, a captain at the Army Air Corps camp signed an order that the men rehearse four hours a day, excusing them from the usual army jobs such as k-
The three other members of the camp who were also promoted to corporeals are a first violinist, a former member of the Gordon quartet; a second violinist, who used to play with the Cincinnati symphony orchestra, and a violist from Ottawa, Kansas.
RAF Bombs Burma Airdrome
British Headquarters, New Delhi, India, -(INS) -American liberator bombs, manned by RAF crews, smashed the Japanese airdrome at Magwe, Burma, in a night attack, an official communique reported Wednesday. Many bursts were observed in the target area from heavy bombs including 1,000-pounders.
First Aleutian Surface Action Since August
Washington, (INS) — Slipping through the North Pacific, American war ships on February 8 bombarded Japanese positions on the Attu island in the western Aleutians, the navy reported today.
It was the first American surface action in the Aleutian area since August 8, when U.S. warships blasted Japanese positions at the main base on Kiska Island.
Apparently because of foggy weather prevailing in that area result of that latest attack were not observed.
The same navy communique disclosed that on February 18 American airmen in the South Pacific again blasted Japanese bases in the central Solomons but results were not reported.
The Aleutian attack indicated that the Japanese in recent weeks have succeeded in reinforcing this former American island which the Japs occupied last summer.

"Admit it Doctor . . . you think my memory is gone forever!"
The County Asylum at Melbridge, England, harbors Smith (Ronald Colman), an amnesia boy . . . wreckage of the war. Again, he begs Doctor Benet (Philip Dorn) to release him but the kindly Doctor refuses, knowing he is friendless and homeless. Out on the grounds later that day, whistles suddenly blow, announcing the Armistice;
In the excitement, Smith escapes through the open gates. At the village of Melbridge, he enters a tobacconist's shop. Strangely the proprietress disappears into the back. A girl suddenly speaks, Paula Ridgeway (Greer Garson) member of a theatrical troupe. Guessing that Smith is from the Asylum, she urges him to leave.
Paula's tender heart is captured by Smitty and she takes him to the local pub, where he gets lost in the crowd. Later, she brings him to her dressing room and he watches her performance from backstage. He is entranced by her for she is the first person to show a true interest in him and make him feel like a human, being.

Lt.-Commander Stratton Is Native Of Middle West
Lt-Commander Dorothy Constance Stratton, director of the SPARs, women's organization of the coast guard, was formerly dean of women at Purdue University, where Miss Marie Miller, assistant to the adviser of women, met her. Miss Miller was employed at Purdue for four months before she accepted her present job at the University.
Miss Stratton Authorized Two Books Some of the new practices Miss Stratton used at Purdue include serving breakfast to different groups of freshman girls to become acquainted with them, writing contact letters to parents to find out more about their daughters before they went to Purdue, and establishing a course for housemothers and dormitory directors.
She is also an author, having written "Your Best Foot Forward" in collaboration with Miss Helen B. Schleman, director of the women's residence hall at Purdue, and "Problems of Students in a Graduate School of Education." A copy of "Your Best Foot Forward" may be found in the dean of women's office. It consists of 6200 questions asked and answered by college students.
Before accepting the directorship of the SPARs, named from the first letters of the coast guard's motto, "Semper Paratus—Always Ready," last November, Miss Stratton had lived nearly all her life in the Middle West. She received her Bachelor of Arts degree from Ottawa, her Master of Arts from the University of Chicago, and a doctorate of philosophy from Columbia.
Miss Miller talked with her, and looked over her records as a guide to the type of work she was to do here. Miss Stratton, as she prefers to be called, impressed her as being an able leader, and she felt that she was outstanding in counseling work.
Miss Stratton Graduated At Ottawa
The second meeting Miss Miller had with Miss Stratton was in the fall of 1940, when Miss Stratton was the principal speaker at the conference of the Kansas State Association of Deans of Women. In her speech, she related an incident in her life when she was a business student in Manhattan.

Jayhawk jabberwock

AN ALL STAR TEAM
Interesting to this writer was an all-Jayhawk basketball team named recently by a downtown Lawrence man from Kansas teams since 1930. The selector of the squad claimed to have witnessed in action every Jayhawk squad since that date.
The court fan placed at the forward positions Howard Engleman, the Houdini of the Hoops, and Ray Ebling, three-times the conference's leading scorer. At center was lanky Charley Black, ace of this year's Iron Five. For the guard positions he chose Ralph Miller as fast as they come, and high-scoring Fred Pralle.
The fan then went even further, and named his second team. Bob Allen and Ted O'Leary were at the forward posts, towering Al Wellhausen held down the center slot, and Lyman Corliss and Ray Evans were the reserve guards
Pity the poor opposition which would have to face such squads as that! Even then such men as Buescher, Kline, Noble, Kappleman, and others are missing. Mount Oread has certainly seen in recent years a parade of the best cage talent in the nation.
NY—HOW THEY'D LIKE TO WIN!
To a Nebraska sports fan a basketball victory over a Jayhawk squad means what a football victory over the Huskers would mean to a Kansas fan.
Norris Anderson, sports editor of the Nebraska student paper, recently voiced those sentiments when he declared before the first Nebraska-Kansas game at Lincoln that any Husker basketball team which downs Phog Allen's men can consider themselves to have had a successful season, regardless of their record for the remainder of the year.

Miller is the second highest scorer in the league trailling little Dick Smith, former Alva great—and may get a bid to join the Wichita city champions when they go to Denver for the national AAU championships . . . There is some talk about this same Wichita picking up Ray Evans for the big tourney, but nothing is likely to come of it as Evans is only a junior.
Howard Engleman is doing all right with the Bartlesville cagers this year, although the team as a whole has been something of a disappointment.

Schnellbacher Hates To Study Female Fans Bother Him
One fine morning when he was thirteen years old Otto Schnellbacher decided to try salt water swimming. He stood poised on the sandy beach; expanded his developing young chest, and tripped out to the Pacific surf. Enroute to a raft some 100 yards away, a breaker and a persistent undertow almost drowned him. Four times Otto has entertained*
In New York this winter Otto created quite a sensation among his teammates by getting calls from women all the time. Four different females phoned the hotel for him, the most persistent being a pair of twins named Cookie and Muffie Lane. Cookie and Muffie told Otto they had seen him play in the Garden and wondered if he would like to have a drink with them down at the bar. Otto tried to explain that he was in training, but they kept calling and calling. He was quite relieved when the team finally pulled out of town. (Reading between these lines strictly forbidden.) Hates To study
Even back in Kansas Otto is not safe from his admiring fans. Cookie and Muffie write him regularly.
When Otto was a young thing folks were calling him "Snelly" and his greatest ambition was that someday "Snelly" Schnellbacher would headline sports pages as a big league baseball star. Since, his yen for the bat has lost its fire. Football and basketball top his list now, and he wants to coach.
Otto hates to study, but nevertheless he manages to maintain a better than C average along with holding down the presidency of Delta Chi fraternity and a seat on the Inter Fraternity council. According to his teammates he is an active member of Quack Club, but Otto denies this.
Next to studying Otto dislikes writing letters. He overcomes his aversion only on only rare occasions

Otto insists he doesn't blush easily, but he confesses that once even the impregnable Schnellbacher poise failed. That once was at a high school dance. He was wearing a new suit—ordered several sizes too large to allow for growing—and his suspenders broke.

Baker Will Start Against Cornhuskers
Whether forward Charley Black sees action or not against the invading Nebraska Cornhuskers Tuesday night depends entirely upon whether medical authorities give the tall junior the "go-ahead" signal, Dr. Forrest C. Allen, basketball coach declared today.
"Clean as a Whistle"
Allen stated that Black will probably see some action at least against the Huskers if doctors consider him fit. Otherwise, the Jayhawks will be playing their sixth straight game without his services.
At any rate, Coach Allen declared Black will not be in condition to occupy a starting berth. Joining Black on the injury list are sophomore guards Bill Brill and Armand Dixon, thus necessitating a revamping of the starting Jayhawk lineup.
To meet the injury jinx Allen has moved scrappy forward "Sparky" McSpadden back into Dixon's vacated guard post. McSpadden's forward slot will he beld down by footballer Hoyt Baker, occupying a starting position for the first time in his college basketball career. Baker has earned the starting nod with his high-scoring performances in recent Jayhawk games.
The Nebraskans will bring to Hech auditorium a small but determined crew led by a fine guard of the Fitz-Held tradition, "Moxie" Young. Aiding Young will be two high-scoring Husker cagers, Bob Heinzelman and John Thompson. Thompson is one of the conference's top point-makers this winter.
The Huskers will be out for re-

Track Team Looks Talent Revealed In Inter-squad Meet
Reports from the inter-squad indoor track meet held Friday afternoon under the stadium indicate that the Jayhawkers will have a team worthy to represent Kansas at the Big Six Indoor Track Meet in Kansas City Saturday.
Valle Schloesser, sole returning letterman from last year's
Valle Schloesser, sole team squad and Alan Houghton have consistently been clearing 12 feet in the pole vault.
George Rhoades and Bob Dole will give plenty of competition in the quarter mile; Bill Brownlee and Bill Cole are also better than average quarter-milers. Don Johnson has bettered 45 feet
Gene Roberts and Gene Lee are 60-yard dashmen who have been timed in under 6.7 seconds. Lee is also the outstanding broadjumper on the squad.
Don Johnson has bettered 45 feet in the shot put.
Outstanding members of las' year's squad who aren't in school this semester are Dick Edwards, Milo Farneti, Eldridge King, Fred Eberhardt, Jim Cordell, Clarence Miller, Don Ettinger, and Don Polom. Charlie Black and Ralph Schaake are in school but are not out for track because of other activities.
Russ Mount is the only distance man on the squad who has previously met Big Six competition.

venge, remembering their recent crushing 56 to 24 defeat at Lincoln.
The visitors will have their eyes especially upon speedy Jayhawk sophomore Otto Schnellbacher, who ran wild in the Lincoln game to rack up 21 points.
Officials for the game will be Mike Oberhelman of Kansas State and John Lance of Pittsburg Teachers.

(continued from page four) this. When the Sublette High School basketball team won the state tournament and, as center of the team, Otto got to walk up and receive the two foot trophy it seemed rosy enough indeed.
Otto is not a gambling man, but at present he does have a pretty important bet on with trainer Dean Nesmith. Two weeks ago Nesmith bet him a considerable amount of money that he couldn't stop dating until the end of basketball season. Fourteen whole days have gone by and Otto hasn't seen a woman. Will Schnellbacher weaken? Will the iron man's allegedly iron heart melt before March 7? These and other questions harass Schnelibacher and Nesmith, to mention a half dozen interested Hill women.

Sooners In Slump As They Drop Game To Olathe Sailors
Norman, Feb. 20 — (Special)— The Oklahoma Sooners remained in a slump last night, as playing without the services of star guard Bob McCurdy, they fell before a powerful Olathe Clipper five 47 to 39.
Oklahoma ace Gerald Tucker was forced to devote most of his attention to rebounding chores, and as a result tallied only two points against the strong Olathe defense. Four fast-breaking Sailor forwards—Howey, Hahn, Lockard, and Conley—spelled disaster for the Sooners, as they repeatedly broke past the Oklahoma defense.
Scoring honors for the Sooners went to forward Dick Reich, and star guard Allie Paine.
State Leaders Ask For Speed In Handling Bills
Topeka. (INS) — Leaders of the Kansas legislature this afternoon were working on plans to speed up consideration of numerous bills before both houses in an effort to bring the session to a close by March 7.
Next week steps will be taken to dispose of the most controversial measures still awaiting action, including the measure placing labor under strict state supervision.
Also among the controversial proposals are the bills permitting osteopaths to practice surgery and to prescribe drugs and the various suggestions for making use of the residue of the sales tax collections after social security obligations are met.
For the first time, mid-year freshmen at Lafayette college have their own identity as a college class.
Senator E. A. Briles, chairman of the Senate ways and means committee, said he hoped to have his big appropriation measure for the state schools completed next week.

Fine Frosh Team To Join Sooners
Norman, Okla., Feb. 21—(Special)
—With freshmen becoming eligible for Big Six conference varsity sports March 1, Coach Bruce Drake of the Oklahoma basketball team has been eying the all-victorious Oklahoma freshman team covetously.
Lack of manpower wasn't the reason the Sooners were measured by Missouri's big, fast-improving sophomore outfit 50-45 at Columbia Monday night. The Oklahoma players give Coach Edwards' young Tigers full credit for snapping the Sooner 10-game win streak. However, Oklahoma will definitely be stronger with her freshmen as will every team in the league.
Charles Pugsley, 6-foot 2-inch former Oklahoma City Classen High School luminary, can step into a varsity position right now, Sooner fans opine.
Harold Hines, diminutive Oklahoma City Central star, will also bid for a spot as will Jim Mitchell, 6-foot 1-inch Classen player who has improved fast of late. Paul Merchant of Tula, perhaps the most promising Sooner freshman of all, has left school to join the navy and is now in training at San Diego, Calif.
Oklahoma frankly needs het freshmen and has all season. The Sooner varsity squad is numerically thin this year, being entirely drawn from the two upper classes.
Notre Dame Will Follow Lead of the Big Ten
Chicago, Feb. 20 (INS) — Notre Dame was expected today to join in whatever action Western Conference officials take Sunday on the freshmen residence rule for varsity sports competition during wartime.

Physical Training Class Handicaps Overcome
By Paul Brownlee
Morale is good—absences are not nearly as numerous as last semester—there's a lot more pep among the students—instructors have more experience—that's the set-up in the physical conditioning classes this semester.
Last semester the physic the job of conditioning 1700 co by Phog Allen had three instructors. They had done an excellent pre-war job of conditioning 500 persons. Then the load was tripled.
Last semester the physical education department was given the job of conditioning 1700 college men. The department headed by Phog Allen had three in- $ ^{*} $
Absences were frequent and the morale was low. Few students attended classes regularly. The university had a fire scare one evening and the next day no fewer than a dozen students had excuses because in the rush to the fire they had taken a long stride and pulled a muscle or tripped over the curb and skinned a shin, or just exerted themselves.
Numerous Excuses
Allen, with his characteristic spirit, tore into the gigantic job that had been pushed into his lap and installed one of the best physical conditioning programs in the Middle West. Henry Shenk, director of intramurals, rushed about organizing an intramural program, teaching numerous commando classes, and reading excused absences from the hospital.
Locker room facilities were inadequate. The navy had all available carpenters hired, and the department could not build more loc
The department was all set to begin the year; classes had met a few times and then the armed forces called L. E. Morehouse to the colors and the department hunted frantically for another instructor. They recruited R. R. Strait from Chanute, where he was in charge of the city school athletic program.
Students majoring in physical education and varsity athletes became instructors and the junior commando classes got under way.
Student Instructors
kers until the carpenters finished work for the Navy. There was a lack of towels. There were not enough showers. Athlete's foot was on the rampage.
New Foot Powder
At last a foot powder was produced by the School of Pharmacy that slowed down the spread of athlete's foot. The carpenters finally finished work on navy projects and built a new locker room. More towels were finally purchased. The student instructors gained valuable information and experience in the art of teaching physical education
And so this semester the physical education department has snatched a breathing spell; student morale has taken a surprising jump, and the University's physical education department is well on its way to success.

Unicameral Council Promises To Be A Forward Step in Student Government
In union there is strength, and the new plan for a unicameral council here at the University should prove no exception. After years of bickering between the W.S.G.A. and the M.S.C. in which nothing could be accomplished because one side offset the other, the councils combined in concerted action should be efficacious and progressive.
In addition to the advantages unity would bring the councils, there is also the major factor of continuity. The terms will overlap, with the newly elected members serving as apprentices to the old Council and meeting with it until May. In this way the next year's student government will not be turned over to inexperienced hands, but rather the well-oiled machinery set up by the old Council would continue to work at its utmost speed and efficiency under the new regime.
More nearly equal representation would be brought about by this new system, for the membership would be elected from organizations, schools, and other groups which cover the entire field of student activity.
The unicameral system would be a plan of student government set up for the future as well as now. During the war, student government would continue in the absence of men, with women being elected to a majority of the offices, a part of which the men would take over on their return. After the war there will be few if any loose ends to pick up, and certainly none of the complete reorganization will be necessary which would follow from the two councils' present set-up.
The finer angles of the united council plan have not all been worked out, but even in its embryonic stage it points to a finer student government than the University has yet experienced. Students with an eye to more effective centralized management of student affairs will do well to support this endeavor.

United States Will Be Focal Point Of Struggle For Advancement
Today the United States is the arsenal of democracy, the factory of the United Nations for turning out the tools of war, the shipping center for the factory, the banker for a dozen allies; all things are going out—money, weapons, ships, men—to be smashed upon the field of combat. Tomorrow the United States will be the crossroads of the world.
Since 1942 the center of the world has gravitated toward the Americas, toward the rough and vigorous land of the assembly line and the dollar bill. This war has thrown the leadership of the world int our hands. In the post-war world, all roads will lead to the United States.
The movement is inevitable. We have become a major partner in the battle against Nazi Germany and Japan. With our armies and our navies, our factories, our men, we have become a world power-perhaps the greatest world power. Our prosperity, our factories and their manufactures, our dollars will make themselves felt and obeyed throughout a disarmed world as our arms make themselves felt today.
It is not a light responsibility,leading a war-

torn world into the light of a new day. It is inevitable that the roads and sea-lanes of commerce should lead to our shores, but it is up to us to see that the roads of world diplomacy do the same. The leadership of the world is once more thrust upon us; we must not be as blind as we were in 1918. If we do not grasp our opportunity firmly and boldly, the world movement for enduring peace must fail. The movement must not be wrecked again upon the shoals of American isolation. We are no longer isolated; that has been proved again and again. We are one with the world; its wars are our wars; its peace is our peace.
Tomorrow the roads will be filled with better cars, with better fuel, the seas will be laced by trade routes, the skies will be bisected with sky lanes where super airplanes will bear tomorrow's freight—and all the roads can lead here.
What could be a more intelligent gift for an association to spend $1,000 on than books for men in the services? This is the extent to which the Merchants' Association in Kansas City is donating to the Victory book campaign. These books will all be placed in schools and libraries which are to be the collection centers. They will then be distributed to canteens, army posts, and other headquarters of service men. Reading provides enjoyment for a great many service men.—V.G.

Rock Chalk Talk

Insomnia solicited: Jack Weaver and George Lathan, decided around 11:30 one night to rig up a communication system between their rooms on the second and third floors of the ATO house. The invention (a pulley on the side of the house with a basket for notes, razors and what have you) was still unperfected by 1 o'clock when Mike Gubar, Weaver's roommate, began to complain that he couldn't go to sleep with the light in his eyes. Weaver and Lathan refused to postpone operations until the following day so, in desperation, Gubar tied a blind fold around his head. The next morning about 8, he elevated an eyelid an eighth of an inch, saw nothing but darkness, and turned over. Three classes later Mike looked out again, saw the same blackness, but decided to get up because he wasn't tired anymore. He fumbled for the light and turned it on. Not until after a panicky moment of blindness did the Great Gubar remember his blindfold.

The best men of all go to Marvin hall: Malcolm Harned, Theta Tau, is back on the Hill after his graduation at semesters, but nobody knows it. This is mainly because Malcolm appears in a clever disguise which he himself terms "dog" and acknowledges is in honor of the defense women he now instructs. Before his first class Malcolm gave away his dilapidated—typical engine school—cords and invested in a suit. John Williams another Theta Tau went with him to make the selection. Both boys got into a little trouble when clerks caught them smearing chalk on the coats to see how they would stand up in the class room.

Woman—let's keep her IN the home: West Hills folk had reason to believe last week that hell week at the Delta Gamma house is really something. One bright shining afternoon a bloodcurdling scream rent the air, a girl hurtled forth from a window of the D. G. house, dropped into a growth of shrubbery, and bluberbed as a bucket of soapy water shot down from the same aperture and landed upside down on her head. D. G.'s hasten to explain that the incident is not typical of their hell week technique. It happened entirely by accident when Joyce Hartwell was proving—or disproving—her domestic abilities and her love for Delta Gamma by washing the guest room windows.

Safety First: A soldier on the bus Phog Allen and his iron men were taking from Lincoln to Iowa State last week accidently dropped a lighted cigaret into the lap of a woman who was sitting beside him. Her pocketbook caught on fire, the stuffing of the seat flamed up, and in no time at all, quite a flame had started. Every one grew panicky and began to dash about as much as people do dash about in busses looking for any kind of an exit. Over all the frantic voices rose the boom of the Kansas coach. "Keep cool, people, keep cool. We'll get this fire out," encouraged Phog with his hand on the knob of the only door to the bus.
WAR DOES IT Lake Changes Hair Do Sweater Gals
War causes strange and interesting things.
International News Service staff writer, Walter Kiernan, comes forth with these opinions on the deadly serious situations of the war. In writing these opinions, Kiernan states that these are only "one man's opinion."
To begin, Kiernan makes this statement concerning the world- resounding decision of Veronica?
To begin, Kiernan makes this resounding decision of Veronica Lake to change her hair style. Walter Kiernan says: Flash—Hidden eye Found Under Veronica Lake's Tresses. Flash—Benny's Wig To Be Explored Next!
Flash—So What?
Lake hung more hair over one eye than Phil Baker has sewed on his winter hairstcut.
She was half-mane, half-woman. She couldn't wink without bumping into protuberances. A protuberance is a knob or a swell. If you bump into a swell with your knob it's a double protuberance, but you meet nice people that way.
Anyway, to get back to Miss Lake and let's all run like crazy—along
came Uncle Sam singing "Take it off, take it off." Veronica's fingers nervously ran up her zipper, skirted her neckline and hesitated in the golden locks.
Then with a quick fling she flung back the wool drape and bang—she had two eyes just like other girls (but not like you, honey.)
It was a victory for the manpower commission. It was a victory for the war production board. It was a victory for society. At last one half of Lake's face knows how the other half made up. Thought for the day: Now we can get on with the war.

US Hurls Back Thrusts In Tunisia
By International News Service
American troops withdrew from the mountains of Tunisia today after hurling back two enemy thrusts against two key passes with heavy losses for the Germans.
As the Americans stabilized their new, shorter, and more easily defendable line, the British Eighth army captured the strategic island of Dgerba, in the Gulf of Gabes and thus poised a dagger at the left flank of the Axis armies behind the Mareth line.
Farther to the south, heavy British artillery pounded Nazi Field Marshal Erwin Rommel's positions along a 25-mile line. British General Sir Harold Alexander, commander of Allied forces in the Middle East and recently appointed deputy commander-in-chief of Allied forces in North Africa, arrived on the scene to take over personal command.

Meanwhile Russian forces swept westward toward the Dnieper river along the whole southern front. A special Soviet communique tonight announced the capture of Krasno-grad, 60 miles southwest of Kharkov. Krasnograd is an important railway junction lying astride the Kharkov-Crimean railroad.

Antique Pattern ★★★ China Display
Two rare patterns of Worcester porcelain, the Imari and Fan, are now on display in the southwest room on the first floor of Spooner-Thayer museum. They are dated about 1760.
The Imari and Fan patterns were made during the Wall period, so named in honor of Dr. John Wall who painted the designs on the porcelain. The period lasted from 1751 to 1783, and the porcelain made during that time is known as "Old Worcester par excellence."
Neatness and simplicity of form and finish distinguishe Worcester from other English porcelains. The body is clean, close grained, and well vitrified. The soft, glossy glaze is smooth and even, and the color varies from creamy white to bluish white. Worcester porcelain is characteristically blue and white and printed.
The Worcester porcelain in Spooner-Thayer museum is part of the collection of porcelain and glass given to the University by Mr. and Mrs. Frank P. Burnap of Kansas City, Mo.

Contingents of AERC Called
Wasser Here To Discuss Advertising
Advertising and its place in the scheme of this country's economic structure will be discussed tomorrow by B. G. Wasser, vice-president of the Potts-Turnbull advertising agency of Kansas City, Mo., who will speak in room 306 Fraser at 2:30 p.m. and in 107 Journalism at 3:30 p.m.
"Students who are considering advertising as a career, or who can use an understanding of advertising in whatever career they choose, should be thinking about the broader, all-encompassing position and power of advertising," stated Mr. Wasser in a letter to Prof. Elmer F. Beth, acting chairman of the department of journalism, giving features of his intended addresses.
Graduate of Washburn
Advertising agency procedure will be explained and part of each period will be devoted to questions and answers, Mr. Wasser wrote.
A graduate in journalism of Washburn University of Topeka, Mr. Wasser has been with Potts-Turnbull for the past six years. Prior to that he was advertising manager of a mail order insurance company for four years, in an advertising agency in Chicago for nine years, and for two years worked in the publicity department of the Portland-Cement association.
While attending Washburn he was editor of the "Review," college yearbook, and correspondent for the Topeka Daily Capital.
Classes Hear Speaker
A class in marketing under John F. Sheaks, instructor of secretarial training, and the Elements of Advertising class of L. N. Flint, professor of journalism, will hear Mr. Wasser at 2:30 p.m. and the History and Art of Printing class will hear him at 3:30.
An informal, "Dutch" dinner at 6:30 p.m. at the Colonial Tea room has been planned by Professor Beth for Mr. Wasser, members of the faculies of the department of journalism and School of Business, and journalism students who would like to attend.
Professor Beth has extended an invitation to anyone interested to attend either or both of Mr. Wasser's talks.

US Navy Sinks Two Submarines Knox Reports
Washington, (INS)—Secretary of Navy Frank Knox reported today that one German and one Japanese submarine had been sunk by American forces in daring sea encounters which helped to offset the loss of 850 U.S citizens in the torpedoing of two American ships in the North Atlantic.
The secretary, in disclosing one of the most interesting stories of antisubmarine warfare since Pearl Harbor, departed from usual custom to say that the German U-boat was destroyed in a running battle with an American destroyer flagship somewhere in the Atlantic. The Jap submersible was sent to the bottom by the deck guns of a crippled American merchantman in the Pacific.
The top Navy executive tempered his report with caution against overoptimism. He expressed the belief that the Germans still were building submarines "much faster than we are sinking them."
Knox insisted that the submarine situation "is very grave."
Later the Navy issued a communique reporting that American planes in the North Pacific blasted Japanese positions at Kiska in the Aleutians while aircraft from Guadalecanal continued their aerial offensive against enemy bases in the central Solomons with attacks on Kolombangara island and Munda.
Second Front Clamor Rises From Battle
The familiar clamor for the immediate opening of a second front in Europe was raised again today at the moment when American and British armies were locked in a death struggle in the battle of Tunisia.
Premier Joseph Stalin's order today to his troops on the 25th anniversary of the Red Army said that Soviet Russia would bear up until they have touched off the demand.
A heavy battle still rages in an area four miles east of Thalu, key to the Allied defenses, but there has been no further enemy advance.
On the Russian front Soviet troops inspired by Stalin's dramatic order of the day pressed forward greatly menacing Orel and taking an undiminished toll in Nazi casualties to all to the nine million the Soviets said already have been eliminated from the conflict.

Army Orders Students To Report March 6-9
BULLETIN
Two more groups of army enlisted reserve student orders have been received, Laurence Woodruff, University coordinator of military information, announced this afternoon. The two groups, to leave on March 8 and March 9, include those army reservists whose names precede the letter W in the alphabet.
"University students will have a chance to display a Treasury flag in the Union building if 90 per cent of the student body regularly purchases war savings stamps, regularly put these stamps in a war savings book, and regularly exchange filled war savings books for war savings bonds" Charles K. Morse, consultant on the war savings staff of the Treasury Department, said here today.
It is the aim of the Treasury Department, Mr. Morse said, to have at least 90 per cent of the faculty and student body in colleges throughout the country participate in this installment plan of buying war bonds.
Treasury Flag To Be Offered For War Saving
The first contingent of 50 University men enlisted in the Army Enlisted Reserve Corps, has been ordered to report to the Reception Center, Ft. Leavenworth, on March 6, for induction into active duty in the US Army, Dr. Laurence C. Woodruff, registrar and coordinator of student military information, said this morning. Group orders were received by Woodruff
This plan was originated last spring shortly before the fall of Corregidor with the following aims: a faculty war council, a faculty war savings committee, and a student war savings committee on each college campus in this country.
English Ballads Will Be Subject Of Ashton's Talk
Student leaders and faculty members met with Mr. Morse at a luncheon in the Union building to set up a committee to handle the war savings program on this campus.

More than 400 men in the University are enlisted in the Army Reserve but all except 148 are medics, engineers, or ROTC seniors with deferred classifications, who will not be called at the present time.
More Than 400 Enlisted
Woodruff said that while only 50 men were called in the first orders, others were expected to follow shortly. Approximately 150 men will be affected by the call, he said. Actually 168 would have been called but between 15 and 20 have already withdrawn from school, the registrar pointed out. That the call would be at this time was indicated in an INS dispatch Feb. 11 published by the Kansan.
Included in the first class are most of the members of the University basketball crew. They are Hoyt Baker, Don Blair, Bill Brill, George Dick, Armand Dixon, and Ray Evans.

Palmer and Moore Give Light Recital
Bv JEANNE SHOEMAKER
Last night's faculty recital featuring Miss Meribah Moore and Robert Palmer, both of the School of Fine Arts, was a far cry from being a heavy classical one. Following Miss Moore's first four numbers which were short classical ones, the recital swung from the lightness of the rest of Miss Moore's numbers to the Ultra-modernness of Mr. ___
Palmer's compositions.
Mr. Palmer's two compositions, the adagio from his "Second Trio for Strings" and the "Sonata for Violin and Piano," were both characterized by their modernistic, impressionistic quality. The first had a slow, almost mournful quality and employed extensive use of double stopping in all instruments, violin, cello, and viola. Played by three students in the School of Fine Arts, James Lereh, violin; Eugene Nininger, viola; and Glenn Royer, cello; the piece had a pizzicato treatment in the middle section which was taken up by one instrument after the other and then faded back into the original theme.
The sonata was a composition of three movements and portrayed the drive and power of twentieth century America. It expressed in music the same qualities found in the poetry of Whitman, and the painting of Grant Wood and Thomas Hart Benton. The product of an ultra-modern composer, the sonata had an under-curred of drive and force played by the composer himself on the piano. The lyrics which had a sad nostalgic quality were woven in by Karl Kuersteiner on the violin.
Composed of Three Movements
For her opening numbers Miss Moore sang "Per Pieta" from "Il Floridorò" (Stradella), "Let Me Wander Not Unseen" from "L'Allegra" (Handel), "Noel" (Nerini), and "Fantoches" (Debussy). Although the first four were light enough to be enjoyed by the average, not particularly musical person, the last group of songs was particularly liked by the audience.
"Wild Geese" (Buchanan) was a melody of beauty sung with feeling by Miss Moore. The other pieces, "When I Bring To You Colored Tees" (Carpenter), "A Piper" (Head), "The
Two Officers Arrive For Executive Duty In Naval School Work
Frank P. Butorac, Lt. (jg) reported to the Naval Training School from Notre Dame University and assumed duties as officer in charge of physical instruction.

Army Troops Will Harvest Next Week In Southwest Area
Washington, (INS) — First use of army troops to harvest food and other staple products will take place next week in the Southwest, Lt. Gen. Joseph E. McNarney, deputy chief-of-staff, told congress today.
McNarney revealed to a senate agriculture committee that troops stationed near Phoenix, Ariz., will begin the picking of long-stapled cotton that has remained in the field because of lack of farm labor in that area.
Two new courses to train personnel to care for children of women workers in defense industries have been announced at Pennsylvania State college.

Pasture" (Naginski), and "At the Well" (Hageman), were all very short, bright sparkling songs.
HouseBoosts Osteopaths' License Bill
Topeka, (INS)—The calendar revision committee of the House today made a sudden decision to give quick consideration to the bill to permit osteopaths to prescribe drugs and to practice surgery in Kansas. The committee boosted the bill to fourth place on the calendar under the heading of "general orders," which meant it probably would get consideration by the committee of the whole House during the day.
The House committee on military affairs had thrown out the bill providing for two-year enlistments in the Kansas State Guard organization and for re-enlistments of one-year periods.
The Malone bill to restrict state authorities to revoke motorists' licenses for drunken driving was killed by the state highways committee. Also the committee killed the Bush bill to restrict highway traffic in Kansas to 35 miles an hour for the duration. Enactment of this measure had been requested by federal authorities.
A bill to provide a merit system for Wichita city employees was killed by the state affairs committee.
Ensign Lewis Modlin Is Graduated From Columbia
Ensign Lewis Medlin, who was graduated from the Naval training school at Columbia last Wednesday, was visiting friends on the campus Sunday and yesterday. He is a 1942 graduate of the School of Business and a member of Alpha Kappa Psi, professional fraternity.
Ensign, Medlin's home is in Oakley. After a visit there, he will report to Norfolk, Va., Mar. 8.
Blood Donations
Dr. C. J. Weber will be at Watkins Memorial hospital every Wednesday to receive donations of blood for the University of Kansas hospital in Kansas City. Students who wish to donate blood to the blood bank are requested to report to Watkins hospital before Wednesday for a blood check-up, said Dr. R. I. Canuteson, director of the hospital. Those under 21 must have the written consent of their parents.
Lend-Lease May Take Over Twelve Per Cent Of America's Food
Washington, (INS) — As the nation yesterday prepared to undergo institution of the stringent new point-ration, it was told that lend-lease shipments of food this year will probably take over 12 per cent of America's total supplies.
In a nationwide radio program, Lend-Lease Administrator Edward Stettinius, Jr., said that only an average of six per cent of this country's foodstuffs were sent abroad last year but he added that lend-lease programs would become doubly demanding during 1943.
Speaking with Stettinius on the NBC program, "Washington reports on rationing," Deputy OPA Administrator Paul O'Leary explained some of the tricks of the point ration. He disclosed that "swapping" of canned goods with equivalent point values would be allowed among consumers.
Personnel Needed For USO in Camps
Mrs. Lillian B. Turner, representative of the national council of YWCA, was on the campus yesterday to make inquiries for personnel for the USO in army camps.
Qualifications are college graduation; training in sociology, physical education, dramatics, or music; and administrative ability in organizing committees and voluntary workers.
The present need is for women trained to serve as recreation directors and assistant directors. The age group is from 23 to 55 years.
Saures range from $1500 to $2400 for assistant directors, and from $2500 to $3000 for general directors. Further information may be obtained from Miss Marie Miller, assistant to the adviser of women, in room 104 in Fraser hall.
Students of the College of New Rochelle (N.Y.) have enrolled in a class in postwar rehabilitation and reconstruction.
Drexel Institute of Technology, for the first time, is accepting women in all departments of the school of engineering.
Hoover Does Not Desire Nomination
Washington, (INS)—Former President Herbert Hoover is not and will not become a candidate for the Republican nomination for President in 1944 under any circumstances.
This is the message, it was learned yesterday, that the former president has sent to Washington through a prominent member of Congress. Hoover expressly asked that his attitude toward the GOP nomination in 1944 be made known to any interested party on Capitol Hill.
The former president effaced himself from consideration for the Republican nomination next year so that he may devote his entire efforts to helping preserve American democracy during the war and to contributing to the solution of world problems after the war.
While Hoover erased all ambition to another term in the White House, it is no secret that he is willing to participate in solving present war problems and is anxious to help solve post war problems.
To a Congressional visitor who alked to him in New York, Hoover aid:
"I am 70 years old. I will be 71 next year. I am not and will not become a candidate for the Presidency under any circumstances. You may tell that to any interested party in Washington. My only ambition now is to help save our democracy and to contribute a little to the solution of post war problems throughout the world."
Massachusetts Institute of Technology is establishing an urban redevelopment field station in its city planning division.

Mid-Week Tomorrow Night The Only Scheduled Event

Already the rationing program is hitting society. Thursday guest nights are being eliminated, with the aspect of Sunday guests causing much controversy.
This last week-end, many of the organized houses got in their last fling at entertaining, after several costume parties, winter formals, and informal.
There are no other authorized parties for this week. There will be, however, a midweek, tomorrow evening in the men's lounge of the Union building. Dancing will be from 7 until 8 o'clock, with the Pope-Bachmann orchestra furnishing the music.

Point System Rations Society ★★★ ★★★ Socialites To Suffer
If the socialites on the Hill are wondering just how the raitioning programs are going to affect social functions for the duration, here is just a sample of what might happen.
The problems of the point system for food will be of the nature that any guests for dinner will be practically impossible. On Sunday, then, when the impetuous girl wants to capture
But that idea has it's complications. We have to watch that shoe leather you know—three pairs of shoes a year won't stand very many unnecessary hikes.
that one, last available man who has been seen wandering around alone on the campus, she will have to find another way to his heart than through his stomach. Instead of inviting him over for dinner, she will say, "How about coming over right after we finish eating, and we'll go for a walk?"
Guess that goes for dancing too. Especially for those individuals who haven't yet learned the art of jitterbugging where one spends the greatest part of his dancing hours jumping up into the air and coming down again, instead of shuffling along the floor wearing out his shoes in a waltz.
Watch That Shoe Leather
Never Say Die
No dinner; no dancing; no hikes. What to do? The young lady still will not admit defeat. "We'll just spend a lovely evening in the parlor," she says, "playing bridge, talking, or—well, after all!" So it is decided. The parlor will have to suffice.
You Aren't Alone
But what do we find here? Others seem to have the same idea. As our eyes finally become accustomed to the darkness of the usually well-lighted room, we find every available sofa taken. Not even a straight-backed chair is left unoccupied. Of
Another Ration Program?
course there is the alternative of sitting on the floor, but that wouldno't be lady like.
But What Of Society ?
So we have no dinner guests, no dancing parties, and very, very few dates. (Much as we would hate to introduce another rationing plan, it might be a good idea to obtain a government order rationing what few men there are left so that there will be enough for every girl to have one, say, one hour a week.)
But the one resultant effect is that—there will be no society. Engagements and weddings happen; but after that, then what? The bride starts working in a defense factory and the groom is drifted. 'Tis Fate, Cruel Fate
A few months hence, we shall all look back and ask, "Society? Oh,
yes, I remember something about it. Wasn't that what people used to do to get their names in the society page?"
Soon, I am afraid, we shall be asking, "What page?"

Jinx Strikes Jayhawkers
Injury
Severely handicapped by injuries which have placed four of their stalwarts on the bench. Phog Allen's high-riding Jayhawkers tonight will present a patched lineup to meet the threat of the rejuvenated Nebraska Cornhuskers, who last week added the scalps of the young Missouri Tigers to their collection.
In downing the Tigers 56 to 50 last week, the Huskers revealed a new scoring star who may give the Jayhawkers plenty of trouble tonight. He is Ken Elson, substitute guard and forward, who may because of his performance against the Missourians reserve a starting berth in tonight's tussle. Elson racked up 14 points in last week's contest to tie Missouri's sensational sophomore Jenkins for scoring honors for the game.
Allen stated today, however, that little "Sparky" McSpadden, flu victim, has shown definite improvement, and may enter the game as a substitute, if needed.
Allen has indicated that he will, in the absence of two of the original members of the Iron Five, depend upon sophomore Hoyt Baker and junior Max Kissell to fill the vacancies. Kissell is scheduled to start at a forward slot, while Baker will team with Ray Evans at a guard post. Allen, however, stated that those positions may be reversed by game time.
Joining Charlie Black on the bench this week is fellow Iron Fiver Armand Dixon. In addition, Bill Brill, big reserve guard, will see no action.
Allen indicated today that Ray Evans, Jayhawk defensive ace, will draw the difficult assignment of guarding Elson.
In the meantime, Nebraska's topnotch guard duo, Young and Heinzelman, are likely to find their hands full in stopping sophomore Jayhawker Otto Schnellbacher, who racked up 21 points against the Huskers in their last meeting, and with Johnny Buescher, who has been finding the basket with consistency of late.
The Nebraskans will be trying to hold on to their recently-gained third place position in the conference. The Jayhawkers in turn will be striving for a triumph which will place them only one game short of a cinch for at least a tie for 1943 conference honors.
The game is scheduled to get under way at 7:30.
Tigers In Closing Rally To Defeat Iowa State 31-28
A period of nine minutes in the second half in which the visitors failed to score a single point, cost the Tigers a first half lead and forced the Tigers to pull the game out of the fire with a rally in the closing minutes of the game.
Ames, Ia., Feb. 22 — (Special) — Iowa State's Cyclones gave the Missouri Tigers a scare last night before bowing to the youthful Missourians by a 31 to 28 score.
Scoring honors for the game went to Ray Wehde, member of the Cyclones' colorful twins, with 10 points. Smith and Jenkins were the Missouri stars.
Army Call Includes Six of KU Cagers

Jayhawk jabberwock
It is certainly to be hoped that the petition currently being circulated on this Campus for the participation of Roger Whitworth in the coming Big Six Indoor Meet at Kansas City proves to be the means of ridding the conference of a reactionary rule which is not at all in keeping with the American way of doing things. It is all the more unfortunate that this reactionary regulation should fall in the field of sports, where Americans have so long prided themselves upon their sense of sportsmanship and fair-mindedness.
The Declaration of Independence named explicitly three rights to which every American citizen is entitled—life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The Fourteenth amendment states that the rights of citizenship are to be given irregardless of race, color, or creed.
Americans have always found one of their largest sources of pleasure to be athletic competition. It is intolerable, therefore, that such a necessity in the individual's pursuit of happiness should be denied him because of his color.
All who know Roger Whitworth respect and admire him. No trackman has worked harder, trained more conscientiously, although his chances, prior to this week, of competing in a league meet were practically null. His love of competitive running, however, has brought him to the stadium day after day for a workout.
It is interesting to note that he was formerly a student at Marquette University, the alma mater of one of the greatest of Negro sprinters—Ralph Metcalfe. Whitworth, if he is allowed to compete, will offer this University its best opportunity of winning an individual championship in the meet. He is capable of running the 440 yard dash in under 50 seconds when having a good day. This however is unimportant.
The principle behind the action is what counts. It is a move to insure that not one Whitworth, but dozens of Whitworths in the future, be they students of this University or another conference school, shall not be denied the rights that are theirs as Americans
One faculty member has predicted that Missouri will end athletic relations with this University if Kansas decides to allow colored youths to compete. This writer cannot believe that our Southern neighbor is that buried in the past.
Intramural A team play-offs will get underway Thursday night, Henry Shenk, director of intramurals, announced today. Topnotch contenders for the championship, however, clash tonight for division titles with the Beta's meeting the Phi Delt's, and the Phi Gam's taking on the Phi Psi's.

The petitioners stated that they had conferred with W. W. Davis, the University's Big Six representative, and that Davis
John Moore Team Wins Way, To Play-offs
By Paul Brownlee Rock Chalk Co-on
A cold John Moore Co-op team made up for their inability to hit the basket with fight, and last night defeated the Hellhounds 30-21, to win their division, and move into the play-offs with an undefeated record.
Quarterbacking the John Moore crew was Dwight Bartlett. This boy, one of the best guards in intramural in addition to sharing high scoring honors, snagged rebounds, and seemed to be in the right places all the time. Another big spark in the Co-op attack was Morris Borene, serrapy little forward, who shared high scoring honors with Dwight Bartlett and Carl Unruh, Hellhound forward, with nine points.

With Borene hitting the basket regularly and with towering Bob Heaston pulling the ball out of the ether the John Moore boys built up a 15-7 lead at the half.

It was pointed out by University trackmen today that there is no definite rule in the conference prohibiting the entering of Negro men in Big Six athletic activities. In the past, largely because of the wishes of Oklahoma and Missouri University representatives, it has become customary not to enter colored athletes.
Frank Stannard, spokesman for the petitioners, today declared that the inclusion of Whitworth's name on the Kansas eligibility list would leave the way clear for him to compete, should Davis' resolution pass Saturday morning.
Declared Stannard: "It is our contention that the objection to Negro competition does not come from the student bodies of the member schools, but from the so-called 'older-heads' in many cases."

USS Argonaut Now Is Avenged
Pearl Harbor, (INS)—The sinking of the United States submarine Argonaut by the Japanese in Southwest Pacific waters was avenged by American Sailors within two hours of the time that the Navy's largest undersea craft was sent to the bottom, it was revealed yesterday.
Details of the battle between the undersea craft and the convoy were given by Lt. Com. Leon J. Huffman, 44, of Tiffin, Ohio. He was Division Commander of the second American sub which sent the enemy transports under the waves.
The giant submarine went down southwest of New Britain Island while engaged in a mission against a Jap convoy heading for the large enemy base of Rabaul.
The swift revenge was exacted by a companion U S submarine which sank two large troop transports from the Jap convoy which was responsible for the loss of the 2,710-ton Argonaut and presumably her entire complement of 102 officers and men.

Hellhounds Rally
With two minutes remaining and the score 29-19 fiery Vernon Roth teamed with seat forward Don Germann for the Co-op to rack up four points in addition to Bill Bartlett's beautiful long shot while the Hellhounds were chalking up two free shots to win going away 30-21.
And then in the last quarter Wherry and Unruh began hitting for the Hellhounds again and the John Moore boys with Heaston, Will Hiss, Bill Koontz, and Bill Bartlett controlling all the rebounds shot and shot with no results.

ARMY CALL----
Cagers called for March 6 will miss only one Big Six basketball game, if they remain in school until that date. The Missouri University game at Columbia has been scheduled for the evening of March 6.
However, the loss of the men would seriously affect any Jayhawk chances of taking part in a post-season tournament, such as the NCAA affair to be held in New York this year.
The call of the six men had been expected for some time by University athletic officials. Other members of the army enlisted reserve are expected to receive their orders to report in the very near future, as well as members of the army air corps reserve.
Said Allen of the loss of the men:

She is making a list of books she hopes to acquire for the college library. Her interests are mainly in the fields of literature, aesthetics, criticism, sociology, and mythology.
Government Denies Rationing of Liquor
Washington (INS) — Joseph L Weiner, director of the Office of Civilian Supply, reiterated yesterday that the federal government has no intention or plans to ration liquor.
Rumors have been widespread recently that such a program was being prepared.
"In view of the nature of the article, I doubt if the federal government ever would want to step in," Mr. Weiner explained. "The rationing of liquor is tied up with local sentiment."
"If the state wants to enforce local prohibition, that is its affair. If it wants to let people drink, that also is its affair. The Office of Civilian Supply avoids acting as a censor on public tastes and habits."
Although many monopoly states already have instituted liquor rationing programs,Mr. Weiner previously estimated that there is sufficient liquid on hand to provide normal consumption for several years.
"The services know what they are doing. There is something much more important than basketball going on now."

Dr. Brenman Speaks On Hypno-Analysis
740 Vermont
Dr. Margaret Brenman, who received a doctor of psychology degree at the University last year, lectured yesterday at the meeting of the Psychology club.
Dr. Brennan discussed the experiments now going on at Menninger Clinic in Topeka to perfect "hypno-analysis," which, it is hoped, will be a cure for neurosis of returning soldiers. Mentally ill soldiers usually have either a form of hysteria from emotional conflicts and experiences or neurosis.
She explained that this new form of treatment, employing hypnosis in psychoanalysis will speed the cure. When psychoanalysis alone is used, the period of treatment takes a year or more. Now it is hoped that a cure can be affected in a few months.
Dr. Brenman showed that childhood experiences can be relieved in hypnosis to aid the psychiatrist in developing a cause for mental illness and consequently a cure. In showing the effects of this "hypnoanalysis" Dr. Brenman illustrated by examples from a case of a woman, who has physical disturbances as well as mental unbalance resulting from emotional conflicts.

Naval Discipline and Student Habits Biggest Obstacles To Closer Friendship
"At KU considerable differences have come up between the students and the sailors there. The navy men regard and call the University men "draft-dodgers," while the K-Uers think the sailors are the "dead-end" type of humans. One reason for the difference of opinion at Lawrence can be traced to the fact that most of the government students are from the East, South, and other sections of the country." Thus commented the Kansas State Collegian upon the Mount Oread situation last week.
Frankly, there has not been the fraternal spirit between college and service men that was first hoped for and expected. However, statements such as this are exaggerations of the unsatisfactory situation on the campus.
Personal discussions with navy men reveal that they do not in most cases regard University men as slackers, realizing that in wishing to complete his education, the Jayhawker is merely trying to capitalize upon an investment of four long years of studying and tuitions. He has had ample proof that the government in many cases regards the education being received as valuable to the national cause as the training of the navy man.
Thoughtful University men in turn realize the tremendous sacrifice being made by the sailors in leaving their homes to come to the unfamiliar Midwest for training. They know that in a few short weeks many of them will be in a similar position. They give to the sailors that same good-will wish they hope to receive themselves when they are in a distant section of the country receiving training.
In short, University men don't look down upon the sailors, nor do sailors look down upon the students. There is no time now for such petty quarreling as took place earlier upon the Campus of the University of Oklahoma. The lack of companionship between the men of the navy and the University can be traced more directly to the strict military discipline under which the sailors train—leaving them little time for fun—and to established habits of companionship which both groups had previously fallen into.
Dneiper River May Save German Armies From Complete Disaster
As the German retreat in southern Russia nears Dnepropetrovsk, on the Dnieper river, Allied peoples are hoping for a quick knockout blow by the Russians.
However, this fast retreat may not be as much of a Nazi debacle as we are led to believe.
The Russians launched their great southern offensive to rid the Caucasian oil fields of the Nazi menace. Under the mighty Red blows the Nazis, losing whole regiments at a time, began reeling backward, groping for some natural fortifications where they could make a stand. They had to begin shortening their lines to where they could hold off the Russians until the spring thaw sets in.
The real reason for this accelerated retreat is that the Nazi must get their mechanized armies across the wide Dnieper river before they get bogged down in the thawing ground
Just Wondering
Why Kansas can't rate a new battleship "Kansas" in recognition of Kansans' scrap collecting ability, the best in the country.
and before the Dnieper becomes too swollen with flood waters to permit further retreat.
---
Once on the western banks of the Dnieper, the Germans probably will be able to prevent further Russian pursuit, unless the Russians can drive south from the Velikiye Luki area and somehow cross the Pinsk marshes. The retreat is a matter of whether the Russians can catch the Germans before they get lodged on the west banks of the Dnieper.
It is unlikely that Stalin's armies will attempt to ford the river with their mechanized forces; as the spring thaw goes deeper in the ground, the Dnieper, along 800 miles of its course from Kiev to Odessa, will widen from two to four miles.
Then will come a breathing spell for the tired German troops. The Nazi will be able to send much needed supplies to their Ukraine armies and to lay plans for one final all-out drive against the Russians in May.
In the meantime the Russian armies, in the Donets basin, will have several thousand square miles of clean-up work which should keep them occupied during the spring months
It is extremely significant that in the Smolensk sector the German armies have given no indication of giving away before the Russian offensive. Smolensk, on the west side of the Dnieper, is a key city in the German defense line which extends southward through Kiev, Dnepropetrovsk, and to Odessa on the Black Sea. Beyond this line the Germans cannot afford to retreat.
All indications seem to point to a battle of unprecedented proportions next summer—a battle of survival for the Germans against the Russians.—M.H.

Shades of Dangerous Dan McGrew: Miss Carlotta Nellis, Templin house mother, reigned in regal splendor at the Carruth "saloon" party Saturday night. Acting as a chaperon, she entered majestically, bedecked in a sweeping black silk dress, a scarf bespangled with sequins, and costume jewelry enough to droop the most stately figure. Announcing herself as "Diamond Lil from the Klondike," she asked to sit on the piano, and a dozen dazzled cowhands rushed to drink "champagne" from her slipper.
When asked where she got the idea, "Diamond Lil" explained that in the old days every saloon had a hostess, and this one was not going to do without.

Names in the news: Jean Ott, Chi O, was speculating upon the news from India the other day. Said Jean: "I wonder if Gandhi will die." Gloria Brinkman, another Chi O, looked up and asked: "Who do you mean?" "Gandhi," said Jean. "I wonder if Gandhi is going to die." "Oh," sighed Giacomo. "I haven't been following the funnies lately."
Getting in and getting out: Naval reservists, going to the showing of the navy films in Bailey Chemistry Laboratories last night, found themselves herded into the Navy section of Frank Strong hall. It seems that the auditorium there was the only one available or convenient. It was quite an experience for new and old students alike, entering the sanctum sanctorum of the Navy. Seniors reminisced over once taking history courses in those very rooms.

Not Just Flag Wavers
By MARY MORRILL
With no trouble at all several dozen university coeds wearing CVC arm bands will cajol male students and faculty members into parting ways with a thousand or so quarters and dimes tomorrow. The men will just look at the solicitors and contribute—without hearing a word about the Jayhawker Shelter Fund and Wednesday being tag day in honor of same. Pain-
lessly the money will slip through their fingers and K.U. will reach its quota—which all goes to prove how effective women—even the scatterbrained coeducational variety—are in promoting this war effort of ours.
So far, the male population of the campus has seemed to regard the Coed Volunteer Corps as somewhat of a joke. They have taken the idea of connecting their feminine associates with anything so serious as winning a war lightly, and they have passed off the CVC as an organization of women who march out of step and salute awkwardly, playing at war with the same spirit in which they themselves played at it during grade school.
Perform Many Services
Kansas University's CVC performs
But when these men who laugh are in Jefferson Barracks Ft. MacArthur, or Ft. Leavenworth and the Daily Kansan arrives in their morning mail, when they do to some camp library and find the book they've wanted to read for a long time, when they're on a battle field defending themselves with a gun, the government has paid for with defense stamp money, or when they're lying in some first aid tent having their wounds dressed with Red Cross bandages, they'll be more than happy that back at K.U. and in other universities in the country, "hairbrained" coeds are getting together and calling themselves the CVC. Those same "hairbrained" coeds will be the ones who have sent the Kansans, collected the books, bought the bonds (lots of them anyway), and wound bandages until they thought they would go crazy.
these services and more. It helps with the Lawrence USO dances. Its members have pledged an average of $10 of defense stamps per month per house. They are piling up a scholarship fund which will give boys who want to finish school after the war a chance to do so.
They maintain a corps of fire wardens. They are pledged to do clean up work at Watkins hospital when they are needed. They are even making plans for a nursery to keep the youngsters of Lawrence women who work in defense plants during the day.
So the Coed Volunteer Corps isn't just another idle Hill institution. Its members aren't just waving the flag. They're doing something. Perhaps they don't march in step or salute with correct arm technique, but as long as their bandages are perfect, they get the books collected, and the funds gathered, what difference does it make?
Four Members Die As Result of Bomber Crash in Oklahoma
Chickasha, Okla., (INS) — Four members of the crew of a light bomber are dead today as the result of the crash of the plane north of here late Sunday afternoon, it has been announced by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol.

Allies Must Call All Reserves Into War
New York, (INS)—Robert Patterson, Under-Secretary of War now maintained that the time has come for the Allied nations to throw all their reserves into the war and bring it to a victorious conclusion.
Addressing a conference of the American Labor Press Association, Patterson said that if the United Nations take full advantage of the blows dealt the Germans by the Russians the war would be won in 1944 or 1945.
He said his prediction was not based on mere guessing but "on the best information we have been able to gather on the waning strength of the Nazis and on the growing strength of the United Nations."
"But we will get the victory only by hard fighting," he said. "We have no time to lose. Time is not on our side. If the Nazis are given time to recover from the blows the Russians have given them, if they and the Japanese are given time to develop the vast resources they have seized, we will not win a decisive victory.
"Generally speaking the skies are brightening for the United Nations. We are now on the attack. The offensive has passed into our hands and we do not intend to drop it. We will win this war. We have never lost a war yet, and we are not going to lose this one."

FDR, Officials Confer On Fate of Italy
Washington, (INS)—President Roosevelt yesterday held an important conference with high State Department officials and advisers on post-war problems.
Shortly before the conference started, Secretary of State Cordell Hull said that it would include discussion of several general principles relating to the post-war situation. He added
that it probably would be general in character to cover any specific plan for the future treatment of Italy.
The fact the State Department delegation to the White House included Myron C. Taylor, President Roosevelt's special envoy to the Vatican, gave rise to speculation that the future of Italy might be on the agenda of the conference
In addition to Hull and Taylor, the delegation included Under-Secretary of State Sumner Welles, Norman H. Davis, chairman of the American Red Cross, and adviser on international political affairs, and Isiah Bowman, president of Johns Hopkins University, and a noted geographer.
The conference came after the Office of War Information made public a broadcast that Mayor LaGuardia of New York made to Italy. LaGuardia's broadcast indicated that a group of nine leading Italian generals captured in the North African campaign, including Gen. Annibale "Electric Whiskers" Bergonzoli was in the United States.
Presence of Taylor at the White House conference strengthened the belief that the purpose of the meeting was to discuss America's position concerning the future of Italy.
Taylor has been a regular participant in recent State Department conferences on post-war plans for Italy. A further indication that the conference involved the future of Italy was seen in the fact that one of the members of the delegation is Leo Pasvolsky, special assistant to Hull in charge of post-war studies.
The fact that Archbishop Francis J. Spellman of New York is now visiting the Vatican in Italy also gave added significance to the White House conference.
Achbishop Is In Italy
One of the chief purposes of Archbishop Spellman's visit to the Vatican is understood to be the delivery of a report to Pope Pius XII on American views in relation to various aspects of the world conflict. It is considered highly probable that Archbishop Spellman's talks with the Pope are touching on the American attitude toward the future of Italy.
The State Department has been studying post-war plans for Italy for several months. These studies have envisaged the possible elimination of Italy from the war this year. Tentative plans are being formulated to meet the situation which may confront the United Nations if Italy withdraws from the war, either through its own efforts or with the help of an Allied invasion of that country.
Won't Deal With Fascists
Active consideration has been given to an occupational program for Italy as well as to the political aspects of the armistice terms that might be offered the Italian nation if it should succeed in withdrawing from the war through its own efforts.

Senate Asks For Strong Oil Control
Washington, (INS) — A special Senate committee investigating the oil situation today demanded an iron-fisted control of the whole program and changes in rationing in order to avoid a more serious oil and gasoline shortage next year.
The committee, headed by Senator Maloney, Democrat from Connecticut, asserted that President Roosevelt's order making Secretary of the Interior licked the petroleum administrator did not go far enough, in that it did not make him a "ozar."
"Lack of centralized authority," the committee charged, "Is hampering administration of the oil program."
"The committee believes that the shortages of fuel oil and gasoline have been intensified, and suffering increased, because of the present intolerable division of authority," the report stated.
It demanded creation of an oil "czar" with authority to issue directives to other departments. Little Improvement
The committee said that "little improvement in the over-all picture can be expected during this and following war time winters."
"It is likely," the report added. "that increased military demands will absorb the additional petroleum products transported to the eastern seaboard as a result of increased transportation facilities now being provided.
For this reason all convertible on heating units should be converted to coal as soon as possible.
Coal users, the committee added, should put in their supply of coal next summer to avoid a serious coal transportation problem.
The report admitted that increased railroad, pipeline, and other transportation might transform the east coast fuel deficit into a surplus of 150,000 or more barrels a day next winter. This, however, it said, is problematical. The situation by regions was summarized as follows: Regions Summarized
Eastern states—Severe hardships resulting this winter. District should be divided with states from Virginia south, having a milder climate, put in a district separate from the northern states.
Far West-A change in war requirements in the Pacific might create a shortage in Oregon and Washington next winter.
The report assailed the complicated fuel oil allotment plan, following the Senate Truman committee in this respect.
Mid-Western states--Have not suffered hardships this winter.
"Fuel oil rationing should be simplified and much wider discretion given to local ration boards."
No Controlling Of Cigarettes Is Necessary
Washington, (INS) — The WFB's beverages and tobacco division yesterday said that no restrictions on the manufacture or distribution of cigarettes are necessary at present.
The division reported that stocks of cigarette leaf tobacco in the hands of dealers and manufacturers are adequate for the time being; the 1942 cigarette leaf tobacco crop was large; no labor problem exists in the cigarette industry since it is highly mechanized and plants are located outside of areas where the manpower shortage is critical; the industry consumes mostly coal, and is not affected by the oil shortage, and imports and supplies of Turkish tobacco are being maintained at adequate levels.
Despite restrictions on a number of products essential to the cigarette industry, cigarette production is running at an all-time high to meet record demand from the armed forces and civilians. No cigarettes are being purchased for Lend-Lease shipment for civilians, but leaf tobacco is being exported for manufacture of cigarettes abroad. Large quantities of cigarettes are also being exported for US troops overseas.
Stocks of cigarette tobacco owned by dealers and manufacturers on Oct. 1, 1942 totaled about 2,200,000- 000 pounds. This compared with 2,300,000,000 pounds on Oct. 1, 1941 and represented a decrease of only about four per cent from the all-time high for that time of year.
Turkish tobacco in the United States on last Oct. 1 amounted to about a two year's supply and applications have been improved for importation of a large supply of Turkish tobacco this year.
Domestic consumption of cigarettes last year reached an all-time high of approximately 236,000,000- 000 cigarettes, an increase of 29,000- 000,000 over 1941, the previous record year. This did not include cigarettes exported for the armed forces.

This fund is given by students and faculty only to provide
Relating to the drive, Chancellor Daane W. Malott, member of the national advisory board, made the following statement:
aid for former students now in prison camps in other parts of the world. The slogan used for the drive is "Real Giving for a Real Need."
Asks Support
"The World Student Service Fund is asking our support to raise money to aid our fellow-students in the beleaguered citadels of learning throughout the world, and to provide education and recreation in the internment and prison camps in foreign lands.
"With almost worldwide disruption of higher education, it devolves upon us here on Mount Oread, who are still able to pursue our work in this University, to share a little to make life more bearable for others who, were it not for the fortunes of war, would themselves be students on some campus leading the sort of life we are privileged to enjoy.
Continue Leadership
"I hope the University this year can continue the leadership which it has exerted in the past in giving generously to the work of the World Student Service Fund."
R. Brank Fulton, of Yale University, spoke to the membership meeting of YMCA-YWCA at 4:30 this afternoon and to the members of the tag day teams who are working for his drive at dinner following. The

Spencer To Give Commencement Address In May
The Rev. Robert Nelson Spencer, Bishop of Western Missouri, will be the baccalureate speaker at the seventy-first annual commencement exercises at the University in May, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today. Dr. Spencer, for twenty-one years rector of Grace and Holy Trinity Cathedral in Kansas City, Mo., is one of the nation's most eminent clergymen.
Dr. Spencer was graduated from the Kansas Theological School in 1904 after having taken undergraduate work at Dickinson College. From 1904 to 1907, he served as pastor of the Church of the Covenant at Junction City, and held a special pastorate at nearby Ft. Riley. He was associated with St. John's church in Springfield Mo., from 1907 to 1909, when he moved to Grace and Holy Trinity in Kansas City. He was chosen Bishop of Western Missouri in 1930, a post he now holds.

Choir Concert Date Changed To Next Week
Because of the sudden calling of the army reserves, Dean D. M. Swarthout has changed the date for the annual concert of the University a cappella choir from its original one in the middle of April to next Monday. Calling of the reservists affects the choir to such an extent that the concert must either be given Monday or not at all, Dean Swarthout said.
Under the direction of Dean Swarthout the choir has been working since September on the group of numbers it will present in Hoch auditorium at 8 o'clock Monday evening. Included among the numbers to be sung will be an "Ode to Music" by Dr. W. Otto Miessner of the School of Fine Arts, who has written both the text and music. In this selection the power of music is shown in its use in the lullaby, wedding chorus, and solemnity of death, closing with a climax eulogizing music as the supreme gift in life to man.
Believes Choir Is Best
In Dean Swarthout's opinion the choir is one of the finest he has led in many years. Although a number of the men singers have already been called to the service, the choir still numbers around 80 voices, having added 15 new men at the opening of the second semester.
Concerning employment for graduates, Mr. Wassi had this to say:
Advertising Must Sell World Post-War Changes
The speaker, who has had over 20 years of advertising experience, stated that advertising "can do tremendous things" and that it is our greatest means of mass communication. He asserted that advertising, partly governmental and partly commercial, had been instrumental in explaining the war effort and rationing systems to the American public and in getting the country's wholehearted cooperation.
Another task for advertis. Wasser, is that of protecting and preserving free enterprise as a basic economic principle in the United States.
"Advertising will have its biggest job in the future—selling to the whole world new things coming out of the war," B. G. Wasser, vice-president of the Potts-Turnbull advertising agency of Kansas City, Mo., told journalism and business students yesterday in two addresses.
"Our economics will never be what they were before, but advertising must hold changes to a minimum," he said.
Must Keep Changes Down
Another task for advertising to perform, according to Mr.
"Employment chances, especially for women, are the best they have been for the past 10 years." To those of his audience who intend to follow careers in advertising and allied fields, the speaker related that typists and stenographers have good chances to advance in an agency.
"If you have ideas, sooner or later someone's going to listen to you," he promised.
Advises Beginners
Asserting that a commercial concern was a better place to begin in advertising than an agency, the speaker advised young persons to get their initial selling experience outside the agency.
Members of the faculty of the department of journalism and Mr. Wasser dined last night at the Colonial Tea room.
Army Reservists Leave For Duty
With the call of three more enlisted reserve men to active duty, a total of 161 men have withdrawn from the University for service since the beginning of the semester, according to a release from Dr. Laurence C. Woodruff, registrar and co-ordinator of military information.
Dr. Forrest C. Allen, basketball coach, today criticized the University Athletic board for its "wishy washy" policy over the basketball eligibility of Jayhawk star, Charle Black.
Recent dispatches from the Seventh Service Command at
According to Allen, Black had received permission of Ralph I. Canuteson, University health director, and his family physician, Dr. L. K Zimmer to participate in the game.
Allen Criticizes 'Wishy-Washy' Board Policy
"I planned to play Black for five minutes in the first half," Allen said. "Then I had arranged for him to receive a medical checkup to determine whether he should continue to play in the second half."
Trouble arose, however, when Allen and Laurence Woodruff, University Coordinator of Military Affairs, checked with Black's commanding officer, Colonel Raymond W. Briggs, at Omaha. Black is at present a member of the army air corps, being here on a temporary deferment because of a recent illness. Briggs refused to give Black permission to compete, Allen said.
Board Passes Resolution
"We were thinking of the boy," Karl Klooz, board secretary, stated yesterday. "After all he will have to face his commanding officer soon, and we thought it unfair to send the boy into the services under such a handicap."
"I do not believe that Briggs had the authority to tell the boy he could not play in a game which is recognized by the services as the best of conditioning sports," Allen declared.
According to one athletic board member, the board, having heard that Allen planned to use Black irregardless of Briggs' instructions, passed a resolution at a dinner meeting held Tuesday before the game instructing Allen not to use Black without his commanding officer's permission.

Pan-American Group Receives Charter
The national charter of the Pan American league was presented to the University chapter by Antonin Lulli, local chapter president, at meeting of the league last night in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building. Duane Smith, vice-president, accepted the charter for the University chapter.
In presenting the charter, Lulli said, "Tonight we are gathered here to witness a significant event—the University of Kansas has joined 300 other schools spread throughout North and South America in the movement of organized Pan-Americanism. Now, specifically, the student league of this University has been admitted into the membership of the National Student Pan-American league and you delegates have become the founder members of this league in this state. Wherever you travel, whether North or South America, I can assure you that you will find student leagues, where a hearty welcome will await."
Later the charter will be placed in one of the University buildings for display.

Scholarship Halls Announce Openings
Announcement was made today that the committee on scholarships at the University is now accepting application for women's residence hall scholarships, for the school year 1943-44. Nearly 100 of these scholarships, which carry the privileges of living in Miller and Watkins halls, in which the annual cost of living for women is among the most economical in any American university, are awarded annually.
Holders of the scholarships are selected by the University committee on scholarships. Candidates must give evidence of high character, good scholarship, integrity, steadfastness of purpose, initiative, and capacity for cooperation. Candidates must be in good health, and must pass satisfactorily the examination of the University health service.
Scholarships For One Year
The scholarships are awarded for one year; however, tenure of the scholarship is always subject to the student's continued maintenance of good conduct and high scholarship, and her ability to cooperate with her housemates. Consequently, a scholarship may be withdrawn at the end of the first semester if a student fails to discharge all obligations satisfactorily. Under certain conditions, scholarships are renewed for another year.
The average expense of residence in the halls, including meals, room rent, and incidental expenses, is approximately $15 a month. For many years it has averaged lower than this figure, but it is expected the figure may be approached another year because of increased costs of living induced by the war.
Rules For Housework
Detailed rules for housekeeping are worked out by residents of the halls. Each young woman is responsible for the upkeep of her own room; each group, for its kitchen and dining room. All the girls share the responsibilities of the other housework and of answering the telephones. These duties require approximately one and one-half hours daily.
Applications should be made to the committee on residence scholarships at the University. The halls
FDR Doesn't Want Fourth Term--Sabath
Washington, (INS) — Rep. Sabath (D) Ill., who favors a fourth term for President Roosevelt, feels that the chief executive is not "very keen" about being the Democratic presidential candidate again in 1944.
After a conference yesterday with Mr. Roosevelt, Sabath, chairman of the house rules committee, was asked if he talked to the President about a fourth term.
"I told the President," Sabath said, "that he owes it to the country and to the world. I told him it would be an awful strain on him but that even his enemies recognize now that there is no other man in a position to proceed as he has done.
"He did not appear very keen about it when I pressed him."

Britain Is Prepared To Use Gas Welfare
London, (INS) — Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden told the house of commons, in answer to a question today, that Britain remains prepared to retaliate with gas should the enemies of the United Nations engage in that type of warfare.
Eden was asked whether, in view of a recent speech by Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels urging the Germans to total war, the government would inform the populace of the Reich that Britain has sufficient stocks of death-dealing gas to destroy the whole German population should the Nazis use gas.
To this he replied that the government's promise to retaliate in kind remains unchanged.

"RANDOM HARVEST" Adapted from the M-G-M Picture by FRANCES BARBOUR
AUGUST 26TH 1957
"Oh darling he's ours—yours and mine."
A year later a son is born to them. Their happiness is complete. Then Smithy receives an offer of a staff position with the Mercury Publication in Liverpool. He sets out for the City but Paula watches him go with misgivings. It is their first parting. The next morning in Liverpool Smithy is struck down by a vehicle.
THE DAILY NEW YORKER
Now a strange thing happens. When Smithy comes to, his memory reverts back to three years before, when he had been struck by a shell on the battlefront. All bryd of his armor goes to Bokham, of Paula is lost from his mind. He to Surrey and there takes up his previous and rightful position as the _wealthy_ Charles Rainier.'
SIR ELIZABETH AND BENEDICT BROWN
"But I don't understand! You say I'm in Liverpool?"
"Come on Charles. Don't you ever want to get out and have fun?"
Years pass and Smithy becomes one of England's great industrialists. He is seen constantly with his step-niece, Kitty (Susan Peters) who makes no secret of the fact that she loves him. It is especially clear to Smithy's secretary, Margaret Hanson, who has been in his employ for several years—as his "right hand man."
SADIE AND RICHARD
"But don't you see? Now he's in love . . ."
Unknown to Smithy, Miss Hanson is Paula Ridgway! When he had disappeared, she had searched for him everywhere in vain. Then she had seen his newspaper picture and maneuvered to be his secretary. But on Doctor Benet's advice (Philip Dorn) she has not revealed herself. Be sure to read the next exciting episode.

Cagers Near Down Huskers 52-33 Need One More Win
Phog Allen's high-stepping Jayhawks Tuesday night moved up to within a single game of the Big Six championship as they ran roughshod over a stubborn Nebraska five 52 to 33. Only the Friday night game with the slumping Oklahoma Sooners stands in the way of a clearcut Kansas cage title.
With ace Charley Black again absent from the lineup, as the University Athletic Board ruled the army air corps man in on the advice of Blokk's
University Athletic Board rule eligible on the advice of Black's commanding officer, Otto Schnellbacher, sparkling sophomore, turned in one of his finest performances of the year to collect 20 points and lead the game's scoring activities. In addition to his point-making. Schnellbacher turned in a fine offensive rebounding job.
Jayhawks Pull Away
Only during the first few minutes of play did the Huskers show signs of stopping the Jayhawk machine, the underdogs holding a 12 to 8 lead at one point in the first half. As John Buescher and Schnell-bacher began to find the basket, however, the home team pulled away to a 26 to 16 halftime lead. The Jayhawks then proceeded to further widen the margin in the second half.
Thompson Stars
Aiding Schnellbacher with the rebounding chores for the Kansans was big Ray Evans, the game's defensive standout. Thompson Stars
Sparking the Husker's early scoring activities was clever John Thompson, who repeatedly fooled the Kansas defense to sift in for setups. Guards Evans and Armand Dixon, however, soon solved the Thompson problem, and from then on the Huskers were never in the game despite the efforts of the visitors' two standout guards, Max Young and Ralph Heinzelman who repeatedly broke up Jayhawk offensive thrusts in a vain effort to halt Schnellbacher and his mates.
Coach Allen substituted freely in the latter minutes of the game, and as a result the game turned into a virtual free-for-all as Jayhawk reserves battled the tired Nebraskans. Bowesone for the game follows.

Baseball Practice To Begin Monday
The University Athletic board in a dinner meeting held Tuesday evening in the Memorial Union building voted to continue baseball as a spring sport this year "if the men are available."
The diamond sport will operate on a limited basis, it was said, with a schedule to be arranged that will necessitate only "a minimum of travel." Service teams and schools in this immediate vicinity will be played.
Possible opponents being considered include Kansas State, Missouri, Baker, Rockhurst, University Naval Machinists Mates school, and the Leavenworth Reception Center teams. Dr. Forrest C. Allen will probably take over the baseball coaching duties upon the completion of the basketball season.
Baseball uniforms are to be checked out March 1 for the first practice, it was announced. Freshmen will be eligible for the varsity team.
Track will also be continued on a limited schedule, it was announced. Probable meets this spring are the conference indoor and outdoor meets at Kansas City, and the dual meet with Kansas State. The team will not go to the Texas Relays this year.
The Kansas Relays have been suspended for this year. However, the interscholastic meet has been moved up to Saturday, April 17.

Big Six Title
Jayhawk Jabberwock
BY MATT HEUERTZ, GUEST COLUMNIST
AU's 52-33 victory over Nebraska Tuesday night was the nineteenth oasketball victory of the current season for Kansas.
Spectators were surprised to find Armand Dixon, supposedly unable to play because of two badly-injured knees, played practically the whole game—but then we should be used to Png's propaganda by now. Dixon left yesterday morning for California to visit with his mother before reporting to Fort Leavenworth.
When Allen sent a new team in against Nebraska five minutes before the final gun, the game turned into what looked like Mexican basketball—the only difference being the presence of referees.
The prize tumble was in the last half when, after a Cornhusker lost his booting, a referee came down on top of him—looked like a foul on the referee.
Schnellbacher pulled the most spectacular play of the evening when he drove down the court and robbed a Nebraska boy of a set up by jumping up and knocking the ball out of the court.
The worst boner was pulled when Ray Evans, standing alone down in the corner, hollered for the ball but his team mates didn't notice him—neither did the Nebraska boys.
WATCH ALEXANDER
Missouri, with the best sprinters and hurdlers in the Big Six, looks like a cinch to upset Nebraska's long reign as champion of Big Six indoor track meets when that meet is held Saturday in the Municipal auditorium in Kansas City. Ace threat of the Missouri team will be Maurice Alexander who has not been beaten in dual competition this season in the high jump, broad jump, and the 60 yard high hurdles.
KANSAS RATES HIGH
In a recent survey by the National Collegiate bureau for the OPI radioed to Yank fighters over the world, Kansas was ranked as the fourth best defensive college team in the country. Creighton was ranked 6th and Oklahoma was ranked 10th. Penn State, in 2nd place, was the only eastern team in the first ten—looks like the Western teams play a more scientific game.

Black A Versatile Man
By Mary Morrill
By Mary Morrill Dr. Jeckle and Mr. Hyde look like a 15 cent double feature when billed against the stupendous variety show of Charles Black, family man, bachelor, student, and athlete. Blowing Shakespeare's theory of each man playing a part to the four winds, Black performs the functions of the four personalities listed above with commendable dexterity.
Black, the family man, has his wife, formerly Terry Morgan, Alpha Omicron Pi, liking him very much. Black, the bachelor, can whip up a mean stew in his apartment while the Mrs. is working out at the SOW plant. Black, the student, found his records all above board yesterday when he temporarily withdrew from school to play on a larger team—Uncle Sam's air corps.
As for Black, the athlete—just thumb through the files of any Midwestern newspaper, paying special attention to the sports pages, and you'll find verification for all those things you've been hearing around the hill about this spectacular iron man. Charlie reserved a place for himself on the Big Six all-star team again this year when he broke the conference scoring record.
A Gentleman Farmer
If it hadn't been for pneumonia he would probably have broken some others.
Like a majority of the other Iron Five, Charlie is going to be a coach. However, his greatest ambition is to eventually acquire the status of gentleman farmer. He was born on a sheep ranch in Idaho and the rolling prairie has never ceased to fascinate him.
Being the only married man among Phog Allen's collection of iron men, he came in for quite a bit of ribbing. But Charlie would rather be ribbed than single. He ad-

The name of Roger Whitworth, colored sprinter, was not on the eligibility list released by Coach Henry. Frank Stannard, spokesman for petitioners who wish to include the colored star on the entry list for the meet, declared today that 37 track men have at present signed the petition. Others are expected to sign.
It is the desire of the petitioners to include Whitworth's name on the entry list for the meet so that the Negro could compete, should a resolution which W. W. Davis, the University's faculty representative, presented pass at a meeting of the faculty representatives Saturday morning. Davis' resolution would prevent the barring of any athlete from conference competition because of race. Entry List

Traffic and Fire Hazards In City Require Immediate Public Attention
It's time the City of Lawrence began waking up to the fact that it has become one of the biggest danger spots in Kansas — a city where it is actually not safe to cross the street or attend a movie. Lawrence is getting a reputation it can well be ashamed of.
The death of a young man in an automobile accident within the city limits is a pretty steep price to pay for jarring the people into the realization that something should be done. The enormous increase in the city's population and passenger traffic in recent months has left the police department far behind in its ability to handle traffic. Yet there is greater need now than ever for control.
Speeding has also become a continual hazard to safety within the city, especially between 11th and 22nd streets on Massachusetts. In this 11-block stretch there is not one traffic light, and traffic police are present only during the short time in the morning and afternoon when students are going to and from school. Yet traffic is heavier on this street than any other in town. Practically all S.O.W. workers come up Massachusetts street after entering town, and they leave town on that street. Personal observance shows the disregard they have for speed limits. The result is that during these heavy traffic periods a person cannot cross Massachusetts street between the 11th and 22nd streets without literally taking his life into his hands. The great number of cars parked on Tennessee street, north of the 1700 block, greatly increases the chances of accidents.
Drunken and careless driving in Lawrence has nearly tripled since the S.O.W. plant was established according to Lawrence Police. With so many new people coming into town there are bound to be many fools who still believe liquor and gasoline will mix. Unless something is done to curb this practice, and curb it quickly, serious accidents and violent deaths will be the price paid.
The practice of smoking in the theatres is the most flagrant violation of common sense and of the law that has yet faced this community. There can be no adequate excuse for letting this practice continue. Lawrence theatres are so crowded that a serious fire in any one of them would result in a major disaster. The practice of allowing so many people inside the theatre that they are forced to sit in the aisles or stand against the wall greatly adds to the danger. Asking the people to cooperate or putting up "No Smoking" signs in the theatre helps, but will not solve the problem—it is the absolute responsibility of the theatre management to see that the practice of smoking in the theatres is stopped immediately. Theatre-goers will help if they would report cases of smoking to the management it would then be up to the management and peace officers to eject the offenders.
Since the police department is too small to handle the traffic, why cannot civilians be deputized and stationed on street corners to direct the traffic and enforce the speed laws during the hours when travel is heaviest? The practice of deputizing citizens and using them to aid in directing traffic, with the power to

If Kansas basketball fans aren't more than a little ashamed of themselves after their poor show of sportsmanship during the Nebraska game Tuesday night.
issue traffic tickets or to make arrests should materially reduce the problem if speedsters are shown that these men mean business. A traffic light on the corners of 14th and Massachusetts and 19th and Massachusetts would help solve the speeding problem, and would also materially reduce the chance of accidents when motorists or pedestrians try to cross Massachusetts street.
These situations in Lawrence are serious ones, and should receive the public's immediate attention. Police and fire protection is the responsibility of the people—it is up to them to make it adequate.

Whether or not there is truth in the charge that meat is being hoarded in country food lockers seems to be a disputed question between the National Frozen Food Locker association and the National Retail Meat Dealers association. Certainly the meat is going somewhere and if it is not being stored in the nation's locker system, there must be considerable meat being stored under very unfavorable conditions when twice as much could be stored in the lockers if filled to capacity.

Rock Chalk Talk
Trials of a feminine sports editor: Betty Lou Perkins, Chi O, who has taken over the sports desk in the absence of an eligible male journalist, finds the new game pretty rough. The technical lingo of sports sometimes gets beyond her, and she finds herself behind the eight-ball (or is that another game?) At Tuesday's basketball game, Betty Lou found herself marking down two fouls against one man on a play. Later someone told her what a double foul is.

The spice of life: The Sage of Mt. Oread was nonplussed the other day. How he got nonplussed I'll never know, but there he was—nonplussed and loquacious. I was nearly startled out of my shoes when he said: "Did I ever tell you of my trip to New York?"
I settled back into my brogans and shook my head. The old man to New York—a likely story!
"I joined the merry circle of cafe society, but I soon got tired of that ceaseless circle. Besides which, I kept tramping on my beard." (The old man's beard is really something to behold.)
"I was homesick for the plains of Kansas and the homely faces of the students." (And he was.)
"The trip was uneventful," said the Sage. "When I reached New York, I took a room in a hotel overlooking the city." (Which is some overlooking, anyway you look at it.)
"I decided to return to my little cave on the Hill, where I could meditate upon the sins of mankind and go to bed every night with a copy of Esquire." (And he did.)

University Band And All-Girl Band Merge Announced by Wiley
The University band and the all-girl band are being merged into one band, Russell L. Wiley, director of both bands, announced today. However, he said, both bands will keep their separate identity within this larger band and will retain their own officers.
The new rehearsal schedule, to be announced at the first rehearsal at 7:30 tomorrow morning in Hoch auditorium, will be lighter than the schedule of either band in the past. Wiley said. The entire personnel of both bands will bring the membership of the merged band up to 85 members. Mr. Wiley also said that other students wishing to join the band should contact him immediately.

New Zealand Will Give Bases To US
Washington, (INS)—New Zealand Minister Walter Nash yesterday made known the willingness of his country to grant the United States permanent air and naval bases.
In an exclusive statement, Nash said New Zealand stands ready to grant the United States the permanent right to use its
air and naval bases as part of a lasting mutual defensive system in the Pacific.
New Zealand thus becomes the first of America's Pacific allies to offer the United States permanent air and naval facilities on a reciprocal basis.
The New Zealand offer also is the first response of any of the Allies to the demands in congress that the United States obtain without delay the perpetual right to strategic defense bases in the Atlantic and Pacific in return for American lend-lease aid.
Will Confer With Britain
The State department is now giving active consideration to the question of what practical measures should be taken to preserve a mutual United Nations defensive system after the war. The matter is expected to be taken up with Great Britain in the near future.
Expressing the belief that a permanent mutual defensive system in the Pacific is just what the peace-loving peoples of that part of the world desire after the war, Nash said he thought such a system should include the reciprocal use of bases between all the Pacific members of the United Nations, including, in addition to the United States and New Zealand, Australia. The Netherlands, Great Britain, China and India.
Each Nation Should Contribute
Asked whether he felt the United States will have to share a large part of the burden of defending the Pacific in the post-war years, Nash, who is a spokesman for the Pacific war council, said:
"The burden should be equitably shared. Each nation should make a contribution in some proportion to what it has to defend, such as its people, its living conditions, resources, wealth, etc."
Nash said he thought it would be a good thing to reach an agreement on the problem of future security in the Pacific during the war, and added that New Zealand is prepared to discuss the question "with all nations affected" at any time.
He further said he believed such an agreement would be an important step in implementing the Atlantic Charter.
SPENCER TO GIVE--and Terry had their first date—a blind one.
(continued from page one)
Dr. Spencer has long been prominent in Kansas City's civic life, having served as a member of the famous Committee of 100, as a police commissioner, 1924-25, as chaplain and a member of the board of St. Luke's Hospital, and lately as a member of the Missouri State Council of Defense. In 1920, he went as a delegate to the Lambeth Conference in England. He is an author of note, and contributes frequently to prominent periodicals.

Smith To Speak At Convocation
T. V. Smith, recognized by many persons as the outstanding contemporary American philosopher, will speak at a convocation at 4:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon in Fraser theater.
Professor Smith, who spoke at a convocation last Armistice Day, is on a leave of absence from the University of Chicago where he had been a professor of philosophy since 1922. During February he is conducting a series of lectures at the University of Kansas City on the subject "American Ideals and American Idealists."
Also while on leave of absence, he has served in the State legislature of Illinois and as a representative of that state in Congress.
Editor of the International Journal of Ethics, Professor Smith is also the author of a number of books among which are, "The Democratic Way of Life," "Philosophers in Hades," "The American Philosophy of Equality," "The Philosophic Way of Life," and "Beyond Conscience."
Several members of the University faculty who have been students of Professor Smith are Prof. E. C. Buehler of the department of speech, Prof. C. P. Osborne and Miss Anna McCracken of the department of philosophy.
ALLEN CRITICIZES--and Terry had their first date—a blind one.
(continued from page one)
"Black has not yet reported for active duty, and I think he is entitled to full civilian privileges. The most he could have done was to have cancelled the boy's deferment, and he would have had to do that in the face of advice from both Dr. Zimmer and Dr. Canuteson that Black be deferred."
"I am disappointed in the way the athletic board is failing to back up our players and their supporters," he added.
Black, having withdrawn from school, is definitely ineligible for the Oklahoma game tomorrow night. Black's withdrawal from school yesterday followed his checking in of his basketball equipment by one day.
Black Has Withdrawn
"Following the Nebraska game, I flatly asked Charley if he wanted to play against Oklahoma," Allen declared. "He failed to answer yes or no definitely, so I considered his reply to be in the negative, and asked him to check in."
ARMY RESERVISTS---and Terry had their first date—a blind one.
Following his withdrawal from school, Black called at Allen's office for a discussion of the situation. In parting, the coach complimented the former star as "one of the finest players I ever coached." Black is the second member of the famed Iron Five who will be missing from the Oklahoma game. Armand Dixon, sophomore guard, has gone home for a visit before reporting for army duty next month.

BLACK A VERSATILE---
(continued from page five) mits marriage is somewhat of an entangling alliance, and that he can't go out with the boys so much now, but he hotly refutes the idea that the institution puts one out of circulation. Charlie has been having one keen time ever since Oct. 8, 1941 when he and Terry visited the justice of peace. Never for a moment has he, regretted the trip, or the night three months before when he proposed, or the night three months prior even to that when he
Charlie had much trouble on the trip back East during the holidays. In revenge for the many hot foots he had been giving on the train several members of the squad worked for forty-five minutes stealthily laying a fire (paper, kindling, etc.—not just one match) under the unsuspecting athlete. When Charlie came to there was a hole in his shoe and two inches of his pant leg had been converted to carbon.
A Hearty Appetite
But his most grusque experience happened in St. Louis. The hotel manager moved some of his guests out of their rooms early so that the iron men could lie down to rest before the game. Charlie was stretched out on the bed very (very) scantily clad when the door opened and he began having company. The management had neglected to tell two blonde evacuees of the room change.

1943 Will Be Toughest Year' Burnes Warns
Washington. (INS)—"The coming year is going to be the hardest, toughest year our generation has had to endure."
This was the warning yesterday from James F. Byrnes, director of economic stabilization. His warning was made in an off-the-record speech before the convention of the American Society of Newspaper Editors on Feb. 13 and was released last night by the Office of War Information.
Byrnes pleaded that "we stop fighting each other," and scored those who say "we can win the war in 1944 as well as 1943," and therefore "must be careful not to try to do too much at this time."
Approves Constructive Criticism
Warning against undermining of public confidence in the government, but approving of constructive criticism, he appealed to the editors to assist him in presenting the government's anti-inflation program to the public and staunchly defended two aspects of it—extension of the work week to 48 hours and incentive payments to farmers.
Byrnes said that "we need a minimum 48-hour week to make the most effective use of our manpower and to increase production." He declared that it was impossible to abolish overtime pay when ordering a 48-hour week "without risking an even greater threat to our stabilization program than that alleged to be involved in overtime pay." More Taxes, Savings Necessary.
He declared that the only solution for the inflationary of higher wages from overtime pay lay in further curbs on excess purchasing power through higher taxes, more enforced and voluntary savings, and payment of private debts.
Allied Troops Force Nazis Into Retreat
For the second time in his career as German commander in Africa, Field Marshal Erwin Rommel turned his face to the east today. Unlike the previous occasion, when he romped from Bengasi to the gates of Alexandria at the head of his Afrika Korps, his eastward drive today was full-scale retreat, with American and British forces pounding and pressing him relentlessly through the narrow files of Kasserine Pass.
A communique from Allied forces headquarters in North Africa made it amply clear that Rommel is on the run again, just as he ran westward from El Alamein when the British Eighth army under Gen. Sir Bernard Law Montgomery launched its historic offensive.
Italians Bear Brunt
Once again, Rommel's disillusioned and war-weary Italian arms-bearing slaves appeared to be bearing the brunt of the disaster. The Italians have been left behind to act as rear guards to protect the German retreat and are, as always, surrendering by the hundreds.
According to Secretary of War Stimson, current operations in Asia "mark a clean-cut repulse for the Axis armies after initial German victories." Allied casualties were heavy in men and equipment, he reiterated, but was able to tell his press conference that some of the lost armament already has been replaced, a magnificent tribute to America's services of supply. Societies Push Onward
On other fronts, Soviet armies pushed forward steadily and the Japanese suffered punching blows in the Far East. Russian troops delivered a series of powerful blows along the whole Soviet front.
General Douglas MacArthur's bombers carried out widespread raids on enemy bases in the South-west Pacific and RAF planes attacked in Europe and in Burma, slashing at Wilhelmshaven in Germany and Japanese bases in the Far East.

Nursery Drive Ends Today
A drive for funds to support the Jayhawk Nursery ended today as CVC members tagged all contributors on the campus. The student drive was climaxed by the showing of several moving pictures in Fraser theater to all persons wearing tags. If enough interest is shown in the old-fashioned films which were run, other old films may be shown in the future, Harlan Cope, College junior working on the drive, announced.
In connection with the drive a moving picture called "History of the Cavalcade of Old Movies" and several shorts were shown in Fraser hall Wednesday afternoon. Proceeds from the 20 cent admission charge go to the Nursery funds. Before the drive started $1500 was needed to complete the goal of $3500. The results of this student drive are not yet complete.
The Jayhawk Nursery at Foxhill near Rugby, England, was a gift last year from students, faculty, and some friends of the University to British children either orphaned by the war or without homes because their fathers are in armed services and their mothers in munitions factories. The University entirely supports the Nursery which houses 35 children and cares for them with trained nurses and dieticians.
Contributes From Taxes
The state of Minnesota contributed from tax funds 36.5 per cent of the income of the University of Minnesota during the fiscal year that ended June 30,1942.

Allies Report Gains On Three Battle Fronts
(International News Service)
Axis forces in central Tunisia were in full retreat today as counter-attacking American combat troops closed in the villages of Kasserine, at the eastern entrance of the mountain pass which leads to the Allied bases of Tebessa and Thala.
In Europe the Axis also suffered terrific blows from the RAF and the American Air Force. The Allies' heaviest bombers swept over the Reich, France, and possibly Italy in continuous waves that roared over the Channel beginning at dusk and continuing operations long after daylight.
One of Largest Raids
It was one of the biggest raids yet launched against the Hitler-controlled continent.
Continue Attack
Stiffened German resistance and heavy thaws failed to check the Russian drive on the eastern front. Bed army columns smashed ahead along the whole southern front from Orel to the Caucasus.
In the southwest Pacific General Douglas MacArthur's heavy bombing squadrons continued to take heavy toll of Japanese shipping. Six more enemy vessels were attacked in the course of widespread raids on bases in the New Guinea area.
Ise Scholarship Is Established
The University has received an endowment of $1,000 from Mrs. Rosa Ise of Lawrence, the endowment association announced today. This endowment is to be used to establish a scholarship in memory of her son, the late Charles D. Ise, who served as school board president in Coffeyville for 12 years.
Mrs. Ie specified that Coffeyville students are to be given preference in granting of the scholarship. Plans are being worked out with the Coffeyville schools.
At present, the gift has been invested in Series G defense bonds; but later it may be turned into a loan fund. According to the endowment association, the scholarship will probably be given this year as a gift on the income of the fund.
Qualifications for the loan or gift will include both character and scholarship requirements, announced the endowment association today. Applicants for grants in September will probably be considered in April. Both Mr. Ise and his son, Tom, (continued on page eight)

Kansas Houses Continue Work On Long Bills
BULLETIN
Topeka, (INS)—The Senate Ways and Means committee brought in its appropriations bill for state educational institutions this afternoon. The totals of a little more than $8,000,000 are about $100,000 less than the total of two years ago.
The University of Kansas gets $1,256,070 for the fiscal year of 1944,
and $1,236,070 for 1945. The K.U.
hospital gets $394,500 for 1944, and
$393,500 for 1945.
Topeka. (INS) — Both houses of Kansas legislature appeared snarled up in lengthy measures today. The house began the third day of work on a proposed new building and loan association code and the senate had to dispose of a measure providing for a uniform high school law.
Late yesterday the senate gave tentative approval to the uniform
so that any county so deserving could remain out from under its provisions.
To open the evening's singing, the choir will offer four numbers from the 16th and 17th centuries, and follow them with four numbers from the Russian school, which are said by Dean D. M. Swarthout of the School of Fine Arts to be so full and rich in texture that they are almost orchestral in character.
After intermission the choir will sing two groups of choral selections composed of numbers by English,
An attempt was made to kill the long building and lean kill in the house.
Little To Work On
A Cappella Concert Advanced to Monday
The Republican floor leader saved the measure by telling the house members that since they had little else to work on, they had just as well give that measure full consideration.
If the legislature gives approval (continued to page eight)
The University a cappella choir will offer four groups of numbers at its annual concert Monday evening in Hoch auditorium. This date, advanced from its original time in the middle of April because so many men are leaving for the services, has caused a piano recital by Miss Ruth Orcutt of the Fine Arts faculty originally scheduled for Monday night, to be changed
American, and Hungarian authors. Probably the most dramatic number on this part of the program, according to Dean Swarthout, will be the sating of the scriptural incident of Jesus driving the money changers from the temple, which develops into a mob chorus at times.
According to Swarthout, it has been hailed as one of the most notable contributions to the choral repertoire of today and was written by the eminent Hungerian composer Kodaly. Last spring the chair sang another number by the same composer, called the "Transylvanian Lament."

Nursery Drive Total Reported
Expressing his pleasure in the outcome of the Jayhawk Nursery drive conducted Wednesday and Thursday by the CVC, Prof. A. J. Mix, professor in charge of the Nursery drives, said that the students, faculty, and friends of the University had been generous, contributing $116.45 to the British shelter. This amount included $10 received at the basketball game Monday.
(continued to page eight)
Arranged and managed by Althea Shuss, college junior, the drive was conducted by CVC members in organized women's houses and by personal contacts on the campus Wednesday. Two CVC members received $12 from a platoon of sailors standing in the drive outside the Memori-1 Union building yesterday.
Othe members of the student committee were Harlan Cope, college junior; Joy Howland, college sophomore; Joanne Johnson, college sophomore; Laird Campbell, college sophomore; and George Worrall, college sophomore.
Expenses of the drive which include moving pictures shown in Fraser hall yesterday and Wednesday and tags, amounted to approx-
of two of Kansas' five early-season regulars, for the Iron Five has become the Three Musketeers. Back in familiar places in the starting lineup for the Kansans will be slender John Buescher, big Ray Evans, and speedy Otto Schnellbacher. High-scoring Charlie Black is definitely out tonight, and sophomore Armand Dixon also will be absent from the Kansas roster.
MeSpadden Replaces Black
Black withdrew from school earlier this week following the Nebraska game in which he was refused permission to play by his commanding officer in the army air corps reserve. Dixon has returned to his house in California where he will visit briefly before reporting for army duty next month.
Sparky McSpadden, short but with a world of fight, will probably again occupy Blirk's forward slot. Allen indicated today that he would depend heavily on Bill Brill former Wyandotte high school star, to hold down Dixon's vacated guard berth, provided Brill's recently-injured knee holds up. Brill is one of the finest defensive men on the squad, (continued to page eight)

Kansan Film Contest To Begin Next Week
In conjunction with the showing of "Random Harvest" at the Jay-hawker theater from March 7-14, the Kansas will conduct a contest beginning Tuesday evening and ending next Friday noon.

Engineering School Is Depleted By Air Corps
When the call to service began this semester, it was the army air corps which cut the biggest slice out of the School of Engineering and Architecture. Seventy-six men, 13 of them aeronautical engineers, withdrew to go into that branch of the service. With that group also went 21 mechanical engineers.
When the call to service bega air corps which cut the bigge Engineering and Architecture. aeronautical engineers, withdrew service. With that group also 12 architectural students, eight chemical and eight civil engineers, five petroleum en-engineers, and one mining metallurgist.
So far this School has lost about 120 men, the majority of them underclassmen. The sophomores led the way with 43 men, and the freshmen followed with 36. To the various branches of the service the Engineering School has lost 21 juniors and six seniors. The smaller number in these groups is caused by the fact that a great many of them have been deferred to finish their schooling.
The AERC and the draft for the army caught 14 and 12 engineering students respectively, while four men left to go into a study of meteorology and 11 others withdrew without giving any reason.
In the divisions of the School itself the biggest cut came from the mechanical engineers, 37 of whom have withdrawn. The architectural and chemical engineers followed with 16 apices and the aeronautical with 14. Eleven electrical engineers and ten civil engineers answered the recent calls. Five petroleum engineers left for the air corps and the two mining metallurgists went into the army and the air corps.
The meteorology course offered at the University of Chicago got two freshman and one sophomore chemical engineers and one junior civil engineer.

Hollywood, (INS)—Bette Davis sailed through the air with the greatest of ease yesterday—but she had a wrenched back and a couple of skinned knees today as proof of a three-point landing.
The actress was rug-cutting with Conrad Wiedel, California jitterbug champ, during a scene for a new movie. The gaters were really digging—until Wiedel lost his grip.
After a little first aid, La Davis got back in the groove. The scene was continued after Wiedel soaked his mitts in resin.

THE CLOVERS AND THE RIVERS
Several weeks later, Smithy proposes to Kitty (Susan Peters). Paula is shaken by the news but quietly an annulment from one, John Smith, who had disappeared years ago. She knows that Doctor Benet is right; Smithy might accept her out of duty but not until his memory awakened, if ever, would his real love for her return.
Adapted from the M-G-M Picture by FRANCES BARBOUR
JOHN C. BARNARD
"You looked at me now as if I were a stranger, Charles."
Smithy and Kitty go to the church for a rehearsal of the ceremony. But as the organ plays "Oh Perfect Love," Smithy becomes excited. The melody has memories for him . . but what? Blindly, he looks at Kitty. She starts to weep. Then she breaks the engagement telling him there is someone else in his heart—some shadowy rival.
"Why should I have a sense of loss so acute that ..."
Paula makes no comment when she hears of the broken bethrothal. Then, on the day that she hears that Smithy is being asked to run for Parliament, she is summoned by him—to Liverpool. He is terribly distraught. He must retrace those lost three years. He has the feeling that they're the most important years in his life.

BY MATT HEUERTZ. GUEST COLUMNIST
The outcome of tonight's basketball game with Oklahoma will decide something besides KU's chances of winning the Big Six basketball championship. It will decide a personal feud between Bruce Drake, Oklahoma coach, and "Phog" Allen. Teams coached by Drake and Allen have won five games from each other. Should Kansas come out on top, it will be the 11th Big Six basketball championship for Allen's teams in the 15 years of the Big Six existence.
One of the "ifs" in the game will be Paul Heap, Sooner guard who was put to bed Wednesday night after complaining of feeling ill. The 6-foot, $ _{4} _{2}-inch $ Heap held Charlie Black to three field goals, without committing a foul in the Jayhawker's 48-44 triumph at Norman last January. A few days earlier Black had established a new Big Six individual scoring record with 33 points against Missouri on the local court.

FANS TO SEE TUCKER
Local fans will finally get to see the hit-and-miss Gerald Tucker in action. In a recent game with the Olathe Naval Clippers, Tucker was held to two free throws in the first half—he fouled out soon after the start of the second half.
Ray Evans, one of the few persons to receive the double recognition as an All-American basketball and football player, probably will be assigned to guard Tucker.
Bob "Manacles" McCurdy, who missed the Sooner's game with the Clippers because of an attack of German measles, has rejoined the Oklahoma squad and may see some action tonight.

At the Iowa Collegiate indoor track meet in Des Moines last Saturday, Darling tied for first in the high jump with a 6-foot leap and placed third in the broad jump with 21 feet $ _{5/2} $ inches. Ed Norcross won the broad jump with a leap of 22 feet $ _{8/4} $ inches.
The reason why Coach Allen said that the Kansas players would check in their suits after the K-State game probably is because only five members of the team will be in school when the national invitation tournament at Madison Square Garden begins in March. Those five players are Johnny Buescher, Bill Forsyth, Max Kissell, Harold McSpadden, and Paul Turner.
Farris Leads Sooner Team
Norman, Okla., Feb 26—Kenneth "Crow Hop" Farris, Big Six broad jump champion, will lead an abbreviated University of Oklahoma track squad into Kansas City tomorrow for the second war-time running for the Big Six Indoor meet.
It will be the smallest and most inexperienced team Oklahoma has ever taken to a Big Six indoor carnival. Farris, who won the broad jump last year, and Son Wright, 200-pound hurdler who ran a leg on the Sooner mile relay team, are the only returning members of the Sooner indoor team that attended last year's meet.
Oklahoma will make mild bids for points in the short dash and the low hurdles in Senior Archie Walker provided Walker doesn't rip his notoriously thin leg muscles meanwhile. Walker was out of last year's meet.
Farris himself is facing defeat in his pet event. Maurice Alexander, Missouri's brilliant transfer, recently sailed 23 feet 8 inches in a dual meet against Nebraska, a full foot farther than the skinny Sooner leapfrog has negotiated this year.
George Roberts, Pawnee fullblood middle distance man; Bill Reimers, Tulsa sophomore; Dan Painter, Tulsa sophomore; Charles Heard, Cleveland sophomore; Eugene Baker, Oklahoma Baptist university transfer; and Charles Chancellor, Great Bend, Kans., sophomore are new Sooner performers who will go into the big meet for the first time.

Kansas to Enter Big Six Meet Minus A Runner
Jayhawk hopes for a favorable showing in the Big Six indoor track meet to be held tomorrow night in Municipal auditorium in Kansas City took a turn for the worse today with the announcement by Coach Gwinn Henry that George Rhoades, quarter miler, is ineligible.
Rhoades, who shows great promise in the 440, was one of Henry's best bets for points in the open quarter and was to run on the mile relay. It was discovered yesterday that he was not enrolled in enough hours this semester to fulfill the conference ruling requiring a man to be enrolled in 24 hours for the year to be eligible for competition.
Men making the trip for the Jayhawkers are Schloesser, 60-yard dash, pole vault, and mile relay; Gene Roberts, 60-yard dash; Gene Lea, 60-yard dash, broad jump; Frank Stannard, high and low hurdles; Alan Houghton, pole vault, mile relay; Don Johnson, shot put; Bob Dole, quarter mile, mile relay; Russell Mount, distance runs; Bill Cole, mile relay; and Harry Johnson, broad jump, 60-yard dash.
Upon learning of Rhoades' ineligibility, Henry last night timed Valle Schloesser, the squad's only letterman, on the furlong with the intention of drafting him to complete Kansas' mile relay quartet. Coach Henry has announced a squad of ten men will leave for Kansas City tomorrow morning for the meet. Preliminaries will be held at 2 p.m., with finals beginning at 8 p.m.

Educator Appeals For WSSF Support
Stressing the fact that Americans are receiving aid through World Student Service Fund for the first time this year, Brank Fulton, student Christian educator and leader, appealed to the YWCA-YMCA at the membership meeting, and to the tag day teams after dinner yesterday, to make the drive next Tuesday a success.
Bob Jenkins, fine arts senior, led the group singing, and Jande Meek, fine arts sopho-
Bob Jenkins, fine arts seni Yolande Meek, fine arts sophomore, played the piano solo,
"Intermezzo in B Minor"
(Schumann) before the meeting.
Thornton McClanahan, in charge of the WSSF drive at the University, introduced Mr. Fulton.
Harry Jennison presided.
Is College Fund
"WSSF is a fund of university and college people, by university and college people, and for university and college people," Mr. Fulton said, by way of explanation. "The WSSF meets no competition with other relief groups, because it confines its work largely to educational purposes for those in refugee universities, internment camps, and war prison camps," he added.
Six years ago, this fund was a war relief drive to help China, and for three years, it has been of a world-wide scope. The national goal this year has tripped from last year's $100,000 to $300,000, equivalent of the nation's collective coke bill of last year.
Store Good Will
"If we train Chinese leaders, we will have stored away a reservoir of good will, because China has more faith in the United States than in any other nation," Mr. Fulton predicted. "What we do with minority groups in the United States
will influence China, India, and other nations to trust us or not in the future," he continued.
In summing up the work WSSF is doing, Mr. Fulton mentioned the following four fields in which it is effective: keeping up the morale of Americans In prison camps or interment camps; undergirding the faith of China in the United States; restoring the faith of refugees in America; and developing enlightened leadership in enemy countries.

St. Louis, (INS)—American women will have an important voice in solving post-war problems because men "have bungled peace problems for centuries."
In conclusion, Miss Martin predicted that "American women will elect a Republican president in 1944—whether the war is over or not."
Lyons
The 1944 election, she added, "will be a women's victory." She said G.O.P. national committee figures show that between 52 and 65 per cent of the votes in the last general election were cast by women and predicted this percentage would be increased in next year's election.
Predicts More Votes By Women

" Lieut. Richard R. Amerine (of Lawrence, Kans.) a marine flier, came wandering in to our lines today, thin as a ghost, to say he had been out in the jungles, dodging Japs and existing on red ants and snails for seven days. He had parachuted from a fighter plane when his oxygen apparatus went out, a week ago, and had landed at Cape Esperance on the northwest corner of the island. Trying to find his way back, he had run into a large group of Japs. He had found one Jap asleep by the side of a trail, killed the Jap by beating his head with a boulder, taken the, Jap's pistol and shoes, killed two more Japs with the butt and one with a bullet, and finally reached our lines safely. Having once studied entomology, the science of bugs, he was able to subsist on selected ants and snails. He knew which were edible."

Resolution Necessary For Repeal Of Reactionary Ruling Never Passed
The Big Six faculty representatives are likely to witness a strange sight at their meeting in Kansas City Saturday morning, for a resolution is to be offered to repeal a rule which was never passed. Such a measure, however, is necessary if a student of this University and an American citizen—a colored sprinter named Roger Whitworth—is to compete in the Big Six Indoor track and field meet at Kansas City.
There is no regulation to be found in the Big Six conference rulebook expressly prohibiting the competition of Negro athletes. However, it has been an ironclad rule, strong as any written regulation, in the conference throughout its existence—and even longer. For it was in the old Missouri Valley conference that the first agreement was made among the league officials to exclude colored men from the benefits of intercollegiate athletics. Most of the present Big Six members were at that time members of the Missouri Valley conference, as well as some of that league's present members.
One University sports authority remembers well that first agreement, and its repercussions. For there arose from his seat on that day the elderly president of Drake University—a minister—to declare: "Gentlemen, I never thought I'd live to see the day when such a group of enlightened gentlemen should act in such an un-American manner."
Nevertheless, the agreement was made, and has been strictly adhered to since that date. It has never entered the Big Six rulebook—and for good reasons. Such a ruling would look strange indeed alongside eloquent professions of "clean American sports," and "American sportsmanship."
There is, in truth, very little chance that the faculty representatives will rescind their agreement. Oklahoma and Missouri are as steadfast as ever in the determination to protect their "youth" from contact with the darker race. There are also whisperings that the northern schools are not likely to push the measure too much chance of spoiling other conference "deals," we hear.
If the Big Six faculty representatives fail to adopt the resolution, however, there can be no passing of the entire burden of blame from northern to southern shoulders, for the northern representatives will outnumber the southern 2 to 1.
No athlete has the right to claim the conference championship until he has defeated all challengers — be they of the white, black, or yellow races. The Whitworths of the conference will soon be called upon to give nobly their lives for a democracy which is—for them at least — decidedly limited.-J.D.K.
Clare Booth Luce Brings to Light Subject That Should Be Aired Now
Representative Clare Booth Luce's maiden speech in the House of Representatives has received a great deal of comment. Not only has she been royally publicized in her husband's publications, Life and Time, but commentators, columnists, and persons in high offices have all taken their turns at castigating her. But none
Just Wondering
Why college students have to pay income tax on the money they earn so that they can go to school?
--of them has struck the really vital note in her speech.
While criticizing Mrs. Luce for her imperialistic attitude, few have considered the desirability of bringing up now such controversial subjects as post-war air commerce. And if they have considered it, they have not compared it with the desirability of having such a point come up at the peace conferences or afterward.
The point to be made is that such discussion is good for the United Nations' soul. We are united now, with one method and one goal. Is it not better that we bring up controversial subjects now, while we are united, instead of after the war when such controversies might well rip the United Nations apart?
According to Drew Pearson's column yesterday, Mrs. Luce's speech was blue-penciled by the State department before she gave it. The diplomats did not object to criticism of the British, figuring that the Anglo-American ties were strong enough to take it. It seems that the State department, too, is awake to the necessity of discussion now of vital topics.
The storm of denouncements of Mrs. Luce for attempting to disrupt the United Nations is a tempest in a teapot. Whatever her motives, she can be thanked for bringing into the open a subject that, hidden, would be likely to fester and grow into an ailment beyond control.
Would it not be wise to bring our dirty linen into the open to wash now, so that we may start the post-war world with a clean sheet?—J.G.

Rock Chalk Talk BY JIMMY GUNN
ARE YOU THE "ONE IN QUESTION?"
(By devious and mysterious paths this letter found its way to the editorial desk of the Kansan. In the interest of humanity, with our salty tears still warm upon our cheeks and blurring the ink upon the page, we print this letter with the hope that it may reach and touch the heart of the dirty dog—a student in the University—who did poor Terry wrong.)
To the Editor:
You may think that this should go to the "advice to the lovelorn" column, but I don't think it quite fits that headline. Perhaps you can help me.
A few years ago, while I was in high school, I thought I was in love. Perhaps it was what is sometimes called "puppy love." The boy in the case graduated and went away to college, and I sent him my picture. When he came home on vacation, I knew his professed love had cooled. If not—why did he flirt with other girls and leave me standing alone, the center of all other eyes? Shortly after this we broke up. Since I graduated I have found what real love is. I have a very swell husband and a sweet daughter.
Now here is my problem. I would like to have the picture back that I sent to the former boy friend. Surely he doesn't enjoy looking at a married woman's picture. I didn't think he was that sort. My husband may have to go to the army soon and I would like to give him the picture.
This may seem rather small of me, to you, but such pictures cost good money now, and when one is saving for war bonds and stamps one doesn't care to spend on unessentials.
Since I have no way of getting your paper, it won't make much difference whether you print an answer or not—but perhaps the one in question we see this.
Hoping this gets results, I remain,
Sincerely yours,
Terry.
P. S. If this can be solved without printing, there's that much space left for something else.
(How can we say more? This poignant appeal speaks for itself. If you are the "one in question" you should make restitution immediately, before this innocent young thing's home is broken up forever!)
Try to explain Mary Gene's two pet
Work and studies take lots of time, but Mary Gene is an active girl who makes every minute count, and she takes in the social activities too. Her are dancing (this rates first with her) and playing bridge. For two years she tackled the social problems of Watkins hall serving in the capacity of social chairman of the hall.
Student Chooses
Art Must Wait
One of the few college students majoring in art is Mary Gene Hull, senior from Wichita. Her post-college plans before the war had been to take up window decoration, but "the war makes the future very vague," says Mary Gene, "and it is likely that I may go into defense work after graduation."
Defense Work
Mary her to carry out a spect arranging miniature windows. Last summer she got practical experience in this field with the window decoration at a department store in Wichita. She reports that an interesting phase of her work was combing the hair of the store-window manikins that had formerly been sent to New York City when their coifures became disarranged.
Mary Gene's interest in window decoration has prompted her to carry out a special project in the art department of arranging miniature windows. $ ^{ \dagger} $
An ISA member all four years, Mary Gene has been an officer of the organization most of that time. She has just finished a year and a half term as ISA president, and before that she served as social chairman for a year and a half.

Good grades are one of Mary Gene's achievements too. She has been on the Dean's Honor Roll consistently since she entered the University and has also maintained Donnelly and Watkins hall scholarships for four years.
peeves, people who are late and indefiniteness. Maybe that's the reason of taking an active part in organizations and work where promptness and decisiveness count. Anyhow, if you want to make a good impression, take note and be on time.
WSGA Member
As a junior, Mary Gene was vicepresident of her class on the WSGA council, and this year she is a member of Mortar Board and chairman of the senior class reception and dance committee.
Artistic, vivacious, and responsible seems to be descriptive of Mary Gene Hull at work and at play.

Jury For Girl's Slacks Whistles Welcomed
The question of whether the girls should wear slacks on the campus is an age old question which still is in want of an answer. But here's something new in the way of a solution.
young lady possessed a figure capable of "wearing said slacks," everyone was at a loss for an answer. Then the law study is, as usual, offered to help.
Miss Nora Neil Power, dean of women at the Louisiana State University gave advice to her fledging coeds in the following manner, "If you do not have a good shape, don't wear slacks."
The law students, mostly men, signed a petition and presented it to the Dean of women suggesting that they act as the unofficial jury. Whistle Marks Approval
"If," they said, "when a young lady passed them on the campus who was wearing slacks and possessed the figure necessary to wear such apparel, she would be greeted with a long whistle. On the other hand if the young lady did not, in their opinion, possess said figure, she would be rewarded with silence."
Radcliffe College Offers Fellowships
Two fellowships for training in personnel administration are being offered by Radcliffe College in Cambridge, Mass., for the year 1943-44, to women desiring to prepare themselves for positions in personnel administration, Miss Marie Miller, assistant adviser of women, said today.
Because the "demand for trained women personnel executives in independent and governmental agencies is unprecedented," Anne Hood Harken, director of the training course in personnel administration at Radcliffe, announced a "plan to enlarge our enrollment for the coming year in order to prepare as many qualified young women as possible to meet the war need."
The two fellowships are each for $500, and enrollment in the personnel administration course is open to a limited number of college graduates. The tuition is $450.
Training for careers in private industry, governmental agencies, or educational institutions is provided by a curriculum adapted to the objective of the individual student.
Academic courses in Radcliffe Graduate School and special seminars in personnel problems are given by members of the faculty of the Harvard University Graduate School of Business Administration. Supervised field work experience comprises full-time apprentice assignments in industrial, educational, and governmental organizations.
Women desiring a catalogue or further information may see Miss Miller or write to Anne Hood Harken (Mrs. Dwight E. Harken), Director of Training Course in Personnel Administration, Radcliffe College, Cambridge, Mass., Miss Miller said.

Chief worry of Allen today was the absence of height in the Kansas lineup. "I don't see how my shorter men can possibly handle a crew of tall players such as Heap, Tucker, Paine, and Reich," Allen said. "Their height advantage is likely to be the deciding factor in the game."
Also slated to see action tonight for the Jayhawks is Max Kissell, junior forward and center, who turned in a good performance Tuesday night against the Nebraska Cornhuskers, and may possibly have earned a starting position tonight. Boys May Choose Starters
"I haven't really decided just who will start tonight," Allen stated, "and I might not do so until just before the boys take the court, or I may leave it up to Buescher, Evans, and Schnellbacher."
Heavy burden of rebounding duties tonight will fall upon the shoulders of Ray Evans, who will have to control the backboards against the taller Sooners if the Jayhawks can hope to win the game.
Bright-spot for Kansas rooters, however, is the possibility that Bob "Manacles" McCurdy, Sooner guard,

Otherwise the Sooner starters will be the same outfit which has fought its way into second place in the conference—two games behind the flying Jayhawks. A. D. Roberts and Dick Reich will be at the forward posts, the great Gerald Tucker will be at the pivot position, and Allie Paine—rivaled only by Ray Evans in the Big Six conference as a guard—will be at the other guard spot.
Athletic officials today predicted the largest home crowd of the season for the game, despite the absence of the much publicized Black vs. Tucker scoring battle. Otto Schnellbacher, Kansas sophomore, however, is likely to give Tucker a battle for game scoring honors.

NUMBER 83
Ten Per Cent Salary Raise Bill Passed
Topeka (INS) — State employees generally are going to get a 10 per cent salary boost for the duration and six months, according to action of the Kansas legislature today.
The House Ways and Means committee has agreed upon a general bill applying to some 5,000 classified employees. Today the Fees and Salaries committee brought in a bill to give the boost to all unclassified employees making less than $2,500 a year.
Today's bill also increased the salary of the secretary of the State Historical Society.
The special senate committee appointed by Lt. Gov. Jess C. Denious to work out a new bill placing labor unions under state control was working on the proposal this afternoon. Members predicted the measure would be prepared and agreed upon early next week.
Next week a drive will be made in both houses to clear calendars of major appropriation measures so that adjournment may be had on the agreed date—March 17.
The Jayhawker magazine will be out at 3 p.m. Tuesday, and students may call for their copies at the WSGA Book Exchange in the Memorial Union building, John Conard, editor, announced yesterday.
Jayhawker To Be Out Tuesday
Some of the articles which will appear in thIs issue are a story on the Naval Reserve entitled "These for Victory," by Alan Houghton; a humorous sketch, "Arabian Nights in a Barroom," by Stan Kreider, with illustrations by Yogi Williams.
The "Yogi Girl," is introduced. She is "Yogi" William's idea of the collegiate girl. A full page is devoted to the "Yogi Girl," and it is something boys in the service will want to hang on their tents," Conard believes.
"Ours for Religion" is a discussion of the School of Religion by Stan Kreider. Stories on men and women's intramurals, and basketball covered by Don Keown are also in this issue.
The Jayhawk Nursery is represented by "They are Jayhawklets Old Bean," an article by Gerry Dick. Pictures taken in England are included with the story.
Choir Concert Tomorrow May Be Last
"Because of the heavy draw on manpower at the University by the call to military service, the A Cappella choir's concert at 8 o'clock tomorrow evening in Hoch auditorium may be its last public concert for the duration of the war." Dean D. M. Swarthout of the School of Fine Arts said yesterday.
The program as announced by Dean Swarthout is: Part I, 16th and 17th century music—"Misericordias Domini" (Durante), "Lovely Month of May" (Jannequin), "Forsake Me Not" (Rosenmueler), and "Haec Dies Quam Fecal" (Pestrina).
The second part, a group of Russian songs, includes "Cherubim Song" (Glinka), "O Praise Ye the Name of the Lord" (Nikolsky), "Where'er I Roam or Linger" (Gretchaninoff), "O Be Joyful, All Ye Lands," (Gretchaninoff). Dr. W Otto Miessner's composition, "Ode to Music" will begin the third part, and it will be followed by "Dedication" (Franz-Cain) and "Song of the Aran Fisherfolk" (Hamblen).
Drives Begin This Week
Drives WSSF Drive To Begin Tuesday
With funds being raised entirely from students and faculty, the WSSF tag drive for $1.000 gets under way on the campus Tuesday, March 2. Organized houses and faculty members will be given a chance to contribute Monday, March 1, and will be given tags to wear during the drive on Tuesday.
Thornton McClanahan, chairman of the drive here, explains that the World Student Service Fund is a fund established to meet the needs of students as students. The organization is enabling many internees in Europe to study and enjoy advantages of recreation during their imprisonment.
In many of the prison camps, professors and students are confined together. In such cases, the fund is enabling the professors to continue to educate the young people.
At Tax Time, Too Checks Cut
Karl Klooz, bursar, announced yesterday that faculty members will receive only half of their salary check tomorrow; the other half they will receive on March 15th.
Hereafter, Klooz said, checks will be available on the 15th of each month and not on the first of each month as has been the custom in the past.
Montana Miners Trapped When Cave-in Occurs
Bear Creek, Mont., (INS)—Eighty miners were trapped today when an explosion rocked the Smith coal mine at Bear Creek.
Red Cross Drive Starts Tomorrow
The American Red Cross membership and war fund drive which will begin officially tomorrow, was off to a flying start with advance contributions totaling nearly $4,500. The quota for Douglas county is $17,150, a sum which is $10,000 more than the last war fund drive in December of 1941.
Dr. F. C. Allen, basketball coach,
is the chairman in charge of the
collection of University contributions.
Because of the greatly increased
amount of the quota over the last
campaign, an advanced gifts committee
has been appointed. This
committee is composed of the following:
Dean Paul B. Lawson,
chairman; Dean D. M. Swarthout,
Dean J. J. Jakosky, H. G. Ingham,
Dr. F. C. Nelson, and Sgt. William
Kollender. This committee has reported
the collection of $321.
Folioonous fumes that filled the mine immediately after the explosion made rescue operations difficult and grave fears were voiced for the safety of the trapped men.
Instruction To Begin March 15
The University has been selected for the advanced army engineering program, Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, announced yesterday. The University had received notice from the Seventh Service Command headquarters that it was one of thirteen engineering schools that had been designated for the engineering phase of the army specialized training program, which is expected to get under way about March 15.
Contract negotiations with the schools have not been completed but all have indicated their agreement and acceptance the announcement continued. The schools include Kansas State college.
Student engineering units will number either 400 or 500 men, divided into classes to study the several types of engineering work most useful to the military service. Six hours a week will be devoted to physical conditions, permitting most schools to maintain their physical education staffs under the terms of the war department contracts, the announcement said.
Nichols said that an inspector and an engineer visited the campus about ten days ago and inspected the facilities here.
Former KU Dean Is Found Dead In Pullman Car
Dr. Raymond Asa Kent, 59, president of the University of Louisville, and former dean of the School of Education here was found dead on a Chesapeake & Ohio train on its arrival in Louisville Friday.
Entering upon his professional career as principal of a grade school
at Fountain Minn., in 1904, Dr Kent later became superintendent of the Maple, Lanesborough and Duluth, Minnesota schools and principal of the University High School at the University of Minnesota.
A. C.
By 1916 Dr. Kent held the dual position of superintendent of schools in Lawrence and professor of education in the University. In 1921 he became dean of the School of Education, and two years later left this position to become dean of the College of Liberal Arts at Northwestern University.
While dean of the School of Education, Dr. Kent was chairman of the Lawrence Board of Religious Education. His attitude toward the place of the teacher in the community is found in an address delivered Feb. 9, 1922, when he said:
"The teacher is a public servant, not merely an individual living to himself. Therefore, if a teacher does not desire to comply with the standards set by the community in which he wishes to teach, he must not complain, but leave the profession."

Lindley Hall To Open In July
University of Kansas
Mineral Research Building
BY RUTH TIPPIN
The first building to be built on the campus by the state for more than 10 years, the mineral industries building, named Lindley hall, is truly an accomplishment in the field of architecture. Completed except for some wiring and lighting fixtures, the structure stands regally at the southwest end of the campus, west of Marvin hall.
Five stories of rooms, large and small, empty except for pipes, registers, thermostats, and blackboards, will house engineers, geologists, and astronomers after the wiring is completed and the building opened. Halls Well Equipped
The halls of Lindley are well equipped with fire extinguishers, drinking fountains, show cases, built in first aid cabinets, tile inlays at main entrances, and even an elevator and a telephone booth. Glass-brick
windows are apparent in the front entrances of the building.
Room 426 is a little auditorium. Equipped with facilities for motion
Lighting fixtures and copper wire will be installed in Lindley hall, the new mineral industries building, by June or July, C. G. Bayles, superintendent of buildings and grounds, announced yesterday. Necessary priorities have been obtained, and the wire will be allocated in March.
Delay following the allocation is due to manufacturing and installing which require a month for each. Unless other complications appear, the building will be ready for use in July. Mr. Bayles assured.
pictures, and a small stage, the "terraced" classroom has one of the best views of the Wakarusa valley
on the campus from its top floor lookout.
Observatory To Be Added
The penthouse intended for the astronomy observatory has not been added as yet, and definite plans have not been made for it.
The whole building exudes the sticky smell of paint and varnish, and the red linoleum floors are powdered with plaster dust and footprints of workers. Halls resound to the slightest noise, and the building, especially in the corners where lighting is poor, is slightly spooky.
Campaigning for the mineral industries building began Oct. 12, 1940, when Oscar S. Stauffer, president of the Alumni association, suggested the need for one in a speech to the association. Appropriation of $408,500 was granted for the building by the Kansas legislature in 1941. Along with the appropriation the
Along with the appropriation, the
legislature enacted a long-term proposition with state universities for as long as 10 years ahead. Previously, they had run on a two-year plan.
Work Begun in 1941
Actual work on the building itself began Dec. 12, 1941, and, had it not been for difficulties in obtaining the copper wiring and transformers through priority regulations, it would be completed now. Until the wiring is installed, the building will not be used, except as temporary storage space for bedding for the Marines.
After its opening, the chemical mining, and metallurgy engineering, and astronomy, geology, and geography departments will move in. Also, the United States geological survey will be housed there.
Unusual additions to the structure include a service tunnel to carry the heating, electricity, and water pipes to the building; and a loading platform at one of the back entrances. The rooms open into each other, forming a sort of simple maze, and some do no open on the hall at all. Two of the corner rooms have no access to outside lighting at all.
On the plaque by the front entrance are printed the following words: Lindley Hall, Named in honor of Ernest Hiram Lindley, Chancellor of the University, 1920—1939, Erected 1942.
Mott-Green Handled Construction
Responsible for general construction is the Mott-Green Construction company of Manhattan; for plumbing, the Woodhall Plumbing company of McPherson; and the Overton Electric company of Topeka had the electricity contract.

SAM BROOKS AND GAIL HARRIS
"Margaret, you're such a warm-hearted human being . . ."
In the next few months, during the tension of running for Parliament, Smithy realizes that Paula is very dear to him. He says as much but refrains from anything romantic because of the shadowy, haunting memory of a woman he has known in the past. Finally, on a day in early October, Smithy wins his seat in Parliament.
THE ROUND TABLE
一
"Then it is 'yes' Margaret, my dear?"
Alone with Paula after the Elections, Smithy makes a startling proposal—for a merger. He needs her in his political career. Will she marry him? He will make no emotional demands but their married "friendship" can be invaluable to each other. Paula agrees, realizing the irony of it—for she will be her own rival.
LAURENCE THOMAS AND BILLIE FARRER
"You've captivated everyone Margaret."
Paula becomes a great social success. The Prime Minister takes such a fancy to her that Smithy is knighted because of it. Now she is Lady Charles Rainier. Outwardly, she is gay and radiant but there are dark moments of despair. Will Smithy ever regain his memory and be the loving husband she had known so long ago?
THE CINEMAS OF CHINA
"Oh Charles! It's beautiful. You're spoiling me . . ."
This evening, they have been hosts at a brilliant ball. When the guests leave, Smithy brings out an Anniversary gift for Paula—a gorgeous diamond and emerald necklace. For the moment, she feels that the barriers are down between them. But Smithy gently withdraws into his shell. Be sure to read the concluding episode.

Jayhawk
abberwock
by Don Keown
The squad began the year as a unit of five men, with reserves seeing little or no action. Yet when the season neared its completion, injuries began to take their toll along with service calls. And then those amazing Jayhawkers displayed an even better brand of ball without the aid of men previously considered "indispensable."
Congratulations to the one and only "Phog" Allen for his eleventh championship or share of the title in the 15 years of Big Six conference history. Of all the teams Allen has coached during his successful career of 26 years, none was more remarkable than the 1943 edition of the Jayhawk squad.
HE DOES IT AGAIN
It's always a great year when the Jayhawks take the measure of Bruce Drake's Sooners, and this year they did it twice against an Oklahoma squad which pre-season predictors considered to be one of the best in the history of that institution.
SCRIBES ARE AMAZED

CRIBES ARE AMAZED After this argument as to who is the better man—Black or Tucker—two other Jayhawkers, Evans and Buescher, turn in performances superior to the Oklahoma ace. This is not meant as a derogatory remark concerning "Titantic" Tuck, but as a compliment to two men who turned in a brand of basketball which was at times unbelievable.
Schnellbacher, Ballard, and McSpadden all come in for applause, but it was Evans and Buescher who made up the difference between the two squads. Scribes in the pressbox were amused at the performances of the two men.

BRILL APOLOGIZES TO ALLEN
The fistfight occurring in the final seconds of the game was a deplorable, if entertaining affair. The Kansas squad is accepting a half-share of the blame for the affair, despite the fact that Roberts threw the first punch. The Jayhawks admit that Brill subjected the "spirited" Ug to an epithet sufficient to rile him.
All of which course does not excuse Roberts either. The basketball court is no place for the settling of such differences.
Brill yesterday apologized to Allen for the affair, stating that he realized it was a mistake to engage in such activities on the court. The guard was sincerely sorry for the affair. Said Allen: "That's all right, Bill, I know what kind of a boy you are, and those things will happen. I'm glad to have you on the team for the Missouri game."

HE WILL PLAY
Big John Mahnken, ace of the strong Georgetown team, has been deferred because of dental troubles temporarily, and thus will be able to take part in the NCAA tourney in New York. Which just goes to show the difference in the viewpoints of army brassshats—Mahnken is out with tooth trouble but plays, Black was out with lung trouble but will not play.

"Suiting You Is My Business"
The University of Kansas basketball team clinched the Big Six championship Friday night in Hoch auditorium by defeating the Oklahoma Sooners 42 to 35.
Bv MATT HEUERTZ
Roberts of Oklahoma opened the scoring with a setup to put the Sooners into the lead which they held for 7 minutes until Ballard scored his third free toss to put Kansas ahead 3 to 2.
A tight defense by both teams kept scoring down during a fast first half. Twelve minutes had elapsed and the score stood at 6-all. Scnellbacher and Evans sank long shots to put KU into a 10-6 lead. The half ended with Bueszer missing a long shot from the center of the court, leaving the score at the half 15 to 11 in favor of Kansas.
Few Score During First Hat
The Jayhawkers out-fought and out-played the Sooners during the entire game.
Three minutes after the beginning of the second half, Oklahoma tied the score at 17-all but two long shots by Evans, two setups by Schnellbacher and four brilliant one-handed shots from the side of the court by Johnny Buescher broke up the Sooner's tight defense and forced the game into the open with the Oklahomaans rushing the Kansas players. Oklahoma's Tucker kept the Sooners in the game by scoring three pivot shots.
Fans Cheer Evans
Ray Evans left the game on fouls three minutes before the final gun and received a great ovation from the 3,384 fans. Oklahoma took advantage of the absence of Evan's great defensive work and scored 9 points, but KU's lead held.
With less than five seconds remaining in the game Bill Brill made a "crack" at Ug Roberts, Sooner forward. A fist fight broke out and players from both teams rushed out on the court and pulled the two players apart. Later the two shook hands in the Oklahoma dressing room and apologized. The game ended with KU on top, 42-35.
Phi Gams Defeat Beta's To Win Intramural Title
After overcoming a strong fourth-quarter Beta challenge, Phi Gamma Delta defeated Beta Theta Pi, 29-25, in the finals of the intramural championships yesterday afternoon, and for the fourth consecutive year walked away with the intramural basketball cup.
Fiji Curt Hinshaw sparked battle and was high scorer for his team with 9 points. His height and accurate close shots made him one of the most dangerous men on the court. Jim Roderick, Beta, was the high scorer of the game with 12 points to his credit.
Curt Hinshaw sparked the Phi Gam offense during the high school for
The Phi Gam's took an early lead in the game and were ahead 7-3 at the end of the first quarter. Maintaining this lead they had an easy 20-12 advantage at the half, but in the third quarter the Beta quintet warmed up and tied the score at 21 all. Fiji's got another goal just as the quarter ended and again led, 23-21.
The Beta's trailed during most of the fourth quarter, but with three minutes remaining to play again tied the score at 25 all. Then Bill Palmer, Fiji, hit a tip in and a moment later Curt Hinshaw sunk a close pivot shot to give his team a four point advantage. In the closing seconds O'Neil, Beta guard, had a foul called on him but the Fiji's elected to take the ball out of bounds rather than chance the free shot. Beta's again got the ball but were not able to score.
Playing rough and tumble ball, both teams made numerous bad passes and also missed many close shots. In the opening quarter each team was guarding closely and the Phi Gam's didn't get rolling on their offense until the second quarter. The Beta quintet, unable to hit their shots in the first half, poured them in during the third period and twice during the game challenged the Fiji's for the lead.
Referees Ray Evans and Hub Ulrich called nine fouls against both teams, and the Beta's gained two points on the Phi Gam's in the free throw department.

In earning their places in the finals both the Phi Gam's and the Beta's easily defeated their semifinal opponents in the intramural championship race this past week. The Phi Fsi's bowed to the Beta's 33-26, and the Fiji's conquered John Moore Coop, 34-23.
Friday night the Phi Gam's also defeated the Beta's for a championship but this time it was for the intramural volleyball title. Fiji took the first game easily, 21-12. The Beta's just turned the tables on them in the second game and also won, 21-12. In the deciding game the Phi Gam's eased out over the Beta's 21-16, to make it two out of three.

Phog Praises Stars . . .
Evans Fulfills Promise Coach Made To Tucker
Following Friday night's 42 to 35 victory over the Oklahoma Sooners to cinch the 1943 Big Six championship, basketball coach "Phog" Allen today complimented his ace guard, Ray Evans, as this University's "greatest athletic personality since the days of Tommy Johnson."
Said Allen: "His general wholesomeness both in athletic com-
Said Allen. This general will petition and on the Campus should be an inspiration to every student at this school."
Evans Friday night turned in an outstanding defensive job in guarding Sooner star Gerald Tucker, in addition to tallying three field goals.
"Wouldn't Trade for' Tucker"
"I wouldn't trade either of my present three stars — Buescher, Evans, or Schnellbacher—for Tucker." Allen said yesterday. "They are team men, he isn't."
"When Tucker graduated from high school, and other schools were making him promises, I told Tucker all I could promise him was four years of hard competition. Well, he's getting them," Allen added.
Allen also complimented McSpadden and Ballard for their play. "I told Jack," Allen said, "to go in there and play the game I knew he was capable of, and not to worry about every little mistake he made. We needed a tall man badly, and he certainly came through."
"Little Sparky played a wonderful game," he added. "He was just two days out of a sick bed, and between halves I had him checked by a physician to see if he was capable of completing the game. The boy has remarkable stamina."
Brill's Knee A Handicap
Allen explained Tucker's barrage of last minute pivot goals with the explanation that Brill's injured knee prevented him from guarding the Sooner star closely. "When Brill's knee is well, he is as fine a defensive man as anybody could ask for," Allen said.
Allen expressed his appreciation for the fine support given the 1943 champions by students, Lawrence fans, and the physicians who aided in keeping the crumbling Kansas lineup together when the injury struck at various times throughout the year.
"Supporters of that type deserve a championship team," Allen declared.

Red Cross Needs Recreation Leaders
American Red Cross needs directors for recreational units in service clubs and hospitals, both domestic and foreign, Mrs. W. T. Douce, office secretary of the local Red Cross, said yesterday.
At the request of the war department, the Red Cross is establishing clubs overseas to meet the leisure time needs of service men on furloughs. These clubs provide food lodging, and recreation.
Women, especially, are needed by the Red Cross, Mrs. Douce said. Those applying for positions must be between the ages of 25 and 45, and have a college degree. In exceptional instances, outstanding experience in recreation may be considered in relaxing the age limits and the requirement of college graduation.
Positions are open now for assistant program director, personal service director, recreation staff assistants, and hospital recreation workers.
All applications should be made through Mrs. Douce at the Red Cross office in the basement of the Municipal building.

Sign Stolen
Miss Meguiar
Asks Return
Thieves have again been at work on Mt. Oread! This time the culprit—or culprits—have been at work in old Fraser, and the loot includes a number of signs designating offices and departments in that building. Among the stolen signs is the one designating the office of Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women. It happens that during the summer session last summer the same sign disappeared and then after an appeal for it's return by Miss Meguiar, the conscience of the guilty student forced him to return it to the owner.
This time Miss Meguiar is not interested in who took the sign, where they took it, when they took it, or why, but simply requests that the guilty person return it quietly to her office at any time of the day or night so that she may again have the guiding light above her door and so that inquiring coeds can again easily find her.

Kansans Deserve Honor of Having Battleship Named After Their State
If any state in the Union today deserves the honor of having a battleship named after it, Kansas is that state. In this period of rapid expansion in the number of battleships, there is surely one that should be destined to be the "U. S.S. Kansas."
Kansas has earned the right to have this honor more than any other state today. She led the nation in the scrap drive, collecting more scrap metal per capita than any state in the nation. Kansans collected an average of 164.52 pounds per person—the total was over 286 million pounds. Much of this scrap metal will undoubtedly be used in making battleships—it is only fair that Kansans find their state's name on one of the new "battle wagons."
In important war production, too, Kansas has become one of the leading states in the nation. Kansas has a great many war plants—some of the largest plants in the country. Kansas has long been one of the leading airplane building states in the nation. The Salina Air Base which is nearing completion, is probably the largest one in the country. A huge air base is being constructed at Garden City. Topeka has a big bomber base, Coffeyville has its air corps base to mention only a few of the air training bases in the state.
Plastics, powder, shells, oil, gas, coal, and airplanes are all produced on a vast scale in Kansas. Add to this the fact that Kansas is a leading wheat-producing state and one of the leading food producers, and Kansas has an impressive record in aiding the war effort. Should not this record rate us a battleship?
Kansas has long been considered the state representative of the great middle west—when people think of the vast central plains, they think first of Kansas. Yet, in selecting names for battleships, the middle west has been largely ignored. Only the U.S.S. Iowa and U.S.S. South Dakota bear Middle West names. The north, south, east, and west are all represented in the battleship roll call—the middle west should have more prominence on the list, and Kansas has the best claim to be added.
The people of Kansas have shown that they deserve national recognition for their contributions to the war effort. The plaque awarded the state by the War Production Board for winning the scrap metal contest was a gesture of recognition, but Kansans deserve something more. A "U.S.S. Kansas" would be proof that Kansas has not been forgotten.
Sportsmanship of Kansas Fans Is Far Below Past Standards
What's happening to Kansas University sportsmanship?
Aren't we ashamed? We should be—every one who was a part of that booing crowd at Friday night's basketball game.
In moments of tenseness and over-excitement such as those during the closing moments of the game, people seem to become radical, impulsive, and hard to control. We saw what happened. It wasn't something to be proud of even if it is blamed on collegiate enthusiasm.
Something should be done to improve the sportsmanship and audience-conduct at our basketball games even if a campaign of ostracism against those who hoot and boo has to be
undertaken. More than once this season the audience has had to be reminded by means of the loud-speaking system that they are not behaving in a manner becoming a Kansas University crowd.
Booing doesn't help the players. We've seen the team members themselves try to suppress it from the court by motioning for quiet. When the men who represent our University in basketball and win for us a Big Six championship by honest rivalry and courteous acceptance of decisions and results, hear those whom they are representing send up hoots and contemptuous boos, they might rightly feel that we don't deserve the effort they are making.
A basketball audience should realize that the officials don't have an easy job. Also, people in the audience should remember that they themselves are not in a position to see every move.
At any rate, whether it's a mistake or whether it isn't, just whom does it help for people to release their energy by long and loud booing?
Let's eliminate that from our sports conduct. Let's make our fighting team members proud of the audience that supports them, and let's keep the name of our University crowds synonymous with good sportsmanship.
A headline reports "Bombers Visit Jap Airdrome at Lae." For a TNT party, we hope.

How not to make one's grades: Two Phi Gam freshmen had Miss Hoopes over to the house for dinner Thursday. Things were going beautifully until dessert—ice cream covered with strawberries—arrived. In class recently Miss Hoopes informed her students that the one thing she didn't like was strawberries. They revolted her—positively! The boys remembered and their hearts sank—with justification. When the English teacher saw the red fruit, her reaction was violent. "Two grades I know of have sunk down, down, down! In fact, boys," she exclaimed, "your whole system of apple polishing has just gone to hell."

Did you put the cat out, dean? "Hey who's kissing me?" Pause. Sigh. "We-ell now!" Ed Sims thought his roommate (Bill Shaw) was just having a highly satisfactory nightmare. Then suddenly something in the direction of Shaw's bed started walking. Sims switched on the light to see a brown female cur licking his grimming roommate with affection. There were two other such animals in the Sig Alp house at the same time—1:30 a.m. No one knows how or why.

Those who guide our young lives: At the Union operating committee meeting the other night Miss Zipple was complaining about how Esquires keep disappearing from the reading table. At the first of the year three issues were stolen overnight—Union covers and all.
"I just can't imagine what student would have the nerve to take them," she said.
Eyebrows raised in mild disapproval, Henry (adviser of men) Werner asked dryly, "Are you sure the Purity League didn't do it?"
The minutes don't say Miss Zipple blushed, but she did.
On the foxy Beta fresh: Every morning and every noon last week, Taeta freshmen trudged up the hill to classes single file. (Hell week regulations). Generally they were followed by 9 to 10 mute but happy Beta freshmen (also single file). It was the nearest most of them, (the Betas) had ever come to walking with a girl on the Hill, and they loved it.

Who's Who Needs Him Versatile Student

Combine a pleasing witty personality with an active, blond curly haired business school senior and we have one of the outstanding members of the class of '43.
The chief characteristic flavor of Bob McCarty can best be described by a personal description. At the first glance one gains
described by a personal descrip a true impression of Bob. A perpetual smile is as characteristic as his much "talking hands." Acquaintances have connected Bob with the Bob Hope of radio for his likeness in wit and humor.
Throwing a little light in the corners of his life we discover Bob addicted at an early age to sleeping out and hiking. Scout work later became his occupier of time and he achieved the maximum ordinate in scout work when he reached the rank of Eagle Scout.
SU
If a Who's Who at the University of Kansas existed we would find listed under Bob McCarty's name: manager of the intranural board, advertising manager for the Kansas Relays program, freshman adviser, president of Phi Delta Theta fraternity, and a member of Delta Sigma Pi business fraternity.
"Mac," as he is sometimes known, invests his leisure moments in reading Time and The Saturday Evening Post magazines. Relaxing goes farther than that by his becoming absorbed in literature thus "escaping from it all."
Has Many Activities
Something that hasn't been revealed by Bob now until now is his liking for the Quiz Kid radio program. "If my mind registers the answer before the contestants I feel as though I'm riding on rubber tires," was his snappy reply. His Hobby Is People
Our subject firmly believes in practicing "give- and-take." Bob will graduate in May which accounts for the "taking" element. Next is the "giving" element. "Stripped for action" is a phrase tailor made for Bob, and just this he will be, in the fall when he is commissioned an ensign in the navy.
Bob's life for the duration has been blue printed by the navy which promises to provide steady work for some time yet. His course has been mapped, the wind checked and Bob stated "I see nothing but smooth sailing for the Allies. My most elevated ambition is to be able to have done and said "sighted sub, sank same."
People might well serve as a hobby for Bob. "I never grow tired of talking with people," and he emphatically added, "maybe because I enjoy talking and secondly each one is different and has something the other hasn't."

KU Ranks Fifth In Number of Trainees
The University now ranks fifth among 211 colleges and universities in the United States offering the engineering science management war training program for training employees in war production plants in the number of enrollees at the present time, University officials were advised in a report from the U.S. office of education yesterday. Currently, 3,898 war workers are enrolled in classes conducted by the University extension division, under the direction of Guy V.

according to U.S. office of education officials makes the University record little short of phenomenal.
As a matter of fact, the University of Kansas has more enrollments in the training program than the combined number of trainees in the 11 other schools in the Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas, Kansas district, offering the ESMWT program. The state of Kansas is ninth in the nation in the number of industrial workers taking advantage of the ESMWT program to speed up war production.
Since the inauguration of the training program by the U.S. office of education two years ago, 30,000 war production employees in this area have taken the ESMWT courses administered by the University of Kansas. War plant executives have been unqualifiedly enthusiastic over the results of the training, which they feel has given a great impetus to speeding up the tempo of war production.

Gosh, We're Smart! Grade Averages Go Up In Spite Of War Tension
Grades have improved despite the war, according to the semester report of Dean Paul B. Lawson of the College. More A's were made this semester than last, practically the same number of B's, and substantially fewer C's, D's, F's, and incomplete.
740 Vermont
This is direct refutation of the student tenure and general nervous tension caused by the war are reflected in poorer school work and a drop in the grade average, Dean Lawson said.
Average Grade Is 1.82
Average grade index for 1941-42 among juniors and seniors, according to the college report, is 1.82, as against a possible perfect 3.00, and 1.42 for freshman-sophomore work.
Music students lead all other college divisions in the annual scholarship report, with an average index of 2.22. French and Italian was the only other classification over 2.00 with an index of 2.04. The perennial brains vs. brawn controversy draws an interesting commentary
Over a five-year period comparison, there have been substantial upswings in the numbers of A and B grades, and a marked decline in the numbers of lower grades including failures and incompletes. Dr. Lawson believes that at least a part of this trend is due to the increased number of scholarships offered at the University, a situation which attracts better students each year to University halls. Competition becomes more spirited annually among the upper division high school students for these scholarship awards.
Four Teams Tied For Lead in Table Tennis
Two forfeits and two play-offs left Alpha Chi Omega, Chi Omega, IWW, and Kappa Kappa Gamma on top this week in the table tennis tournament.
Following in divisional order are: design, musical theory, Latin and Greek, philosophy, psychology, German, journalism, religion, speech, physiology, home economics, entomology, botany, sociology, political science, English, Spanish, drawing and painting, history, economics, physics and astronomy, zoology, geology, chemistry, mathematics, and military science.
Alpha Chi Omega defeated Miller hall in three games, and Chi Omega won two out of three games played with Kappa Alpha Theta. IND forfeited to IWW, and Pi Beta Phi forfeited to Kappa Kappa Gamma.
KANSAN CLASSIFIED ADS KU 66
Said Dean Lawson, "Last year's grades show the highest percentage of A's and the lowest percentage of failure in five years. It is safe to say that never before have there been fewer poor students, or more superior students in the College."

Seniors Vote For Reception, No Annual Dance
The senior class voted an overwhelming "No" to the question of whether to have the annual senior dance and reception May 15. The reason for the negative decision was that so many University men have left or will leave the campus soon.
This decision is the result of a survey which has been conducted during the past few weeks in all organized houses, and among all independent seniors by the senior reception and dance committee headed by Mary Gene Hull, College senior. Miss Hull, who contacted all independents, was aided by Betty Rowton, College senior. Larry McSpadden, business senior, conducted the survey in sororities and organized men's houses.
The alternative to the dance and reception was a reception to be held for the faculty and parents Sunday, May 13, the day of the Baccalaurate. The reception will be held, but no plans have been made for it yet. Miss Hull said.

Yeoman Starkey' Son Visits Lawrence On Nine Day Leave
Jaek Starkey, Radio technician, 2nd class, USNR, son of Chief Veoman and Mrs. George O. Starkey of 1129 Vermont street, came to Lawrence Wednesday night to spend a nine-day leave with his parents.
Starkey has just completed his "boot" training at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station and upon expiration of his leave will return there to await assignment to Radar School for advance technical training.
Starkey was a former employee of the Sunflower Ordnance Works resigning his position to follow in the footsteps of his father in the naval service. He came to Lawrence last June with his parents when Chief Yeoman Starkey, captain's writer at the Naval Training School, was assigned here upon commissioning of the naval school.

Ideals Must Survive For The Spirit's Worth
Philosopher Says
Ideals still live because the spirit of man does not demand action, and the significance of ideals is their effect on the spirit, Dr. T. V. Smith, professor of philosophy at the University of Chicago, told a university audience Friday in Fraser theater.
s, although they may have lost their usefulness in action
are just beginning to make us realize their full worthfulness at this time." The "worthfulness" to which the philosopher referred in his speech, "Ideals, Their Usefulness and Worthfulness," is the intangible effect of ideals of man's spirit—that being of man which separates him from the animal which demands only action.
Warns Against Frustration
Because ideals do not resolve themselves into action, men become frustrated. The speaker warned not to let frustration "make you a cynic or a lotus-eater."
Socialism, which Dr. Smith feels is the present trend in government, does not necessarily destroy individualism, he told his listeners in conclusion, "because the individual can take refuge in the spirit."
Dr. Smith conducted an informal discussion Friday night in the home of Miss Anna McCracken, instructor in philosophy. Thirty students of philosophy and political science participated.
Miss McCracken, Prof. E. C. Buehler of the department of speech and Prof. C. P. Osborne of the department of philosophy are Dr. Smith's former students.
From Lawrence, where he was the guest of Prof. E. H. Hollands, chairman of the department of philosophy, Dr. Smith went to Texas where he will lecture as part of the University Foundation of Texas program. He is on a leave of absence from the University of Chicago where he has taught since 1922.
