RAF Stages Raid To Lead To Invasion
(International News Service)
In an officially announced "prelude to invasion" 500 British bombers visited fire and explosives upon Berlin in wholesale lots during the night and the Air Ministry today hailed the attack the heaviest yet made against the German capital.
Nineteen huge British planes were but pilots and officials today were more than satisfied with results. Undersecretary for Air, Capt. Harry H. Balfour, said the present air offensive against Germany "is preparing the way for an Allied invasion of Europe" and added: Berlin Gets Heavy Attack
The Berlin attack followed by 24 hours a savage RAF assault on St. Nazaire, France, in which a thousand tons of bombs were loosed on the Nazi submarine base in 20 minutes.
Another sea-air battle appeared imminent in the Southwest Pacific as a large Japanese convoy of 14 transports and warships steamed westward from New Britain island toward the New Guinea coast. Waiting Clear Weather
"Berlin got it heavier last night than it has ever had so far."
Gen. Douglas MacArthur, announced the Allied air force will attack when the weather clears.
It was considered probable that the concentrations of power in the Southwest Pacific, Japanese-held islands is a defensive move against the coming Allied offensive.
w Red Drive
Marshal Timoshenko reappeared on the Russian scene in a new Red offensive on the northern front. Russian armies were disclosed in a 50-mile advance in one sector. Red advances also were reported in the Caucasus.
Allied forces moved ahead in central Tunisia where the Axis retreat continued. It was announced that the enmey had registered an advance of three to four miles on the Mateur-Beja sector, but the Allied forces were reported preparing counter-attacks to regain the lost ground.
Need Blood Donations From Men for Bank
More men are needed to donate blood for the relief of civilian disasters, Dr. R. I. Canuteson said today. He added that the response from the women students has been solledid.
Every Wednesday afternoon Dr. C. J. Weber from the University of Kansas School of Medicine in Kansas City will be at the Watkins hospital to take the blood. All blood will go to the University blood bank, and will be used to aid in civilian disasters.
WSGA Will Have Tea For College Women In Union Tomorrow
The first WSGA tea of the year has been scheduled for tomorrow afternoon from 3 to 5 p.m. in the Kansas Room of the Memorial Union building, Marybelle Long, social chairman, has announced.
Nickelodeon music for dancing, and cards and tables for card games will be provided. Gamma Phi Beta sorority women will be hostesses.
This will be the first WSGA tea for all University women this year, because no room has been available for regular teas.
Positions Are Open For Union Offices
Applications for positions on the Student Union Activities board will be taken in the Activities office in the sub-basement of the Memorial Union building until 4:30 Monday afternoon. Newell Jenkins, retiring president, announced today. Offices are open for president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer; every student is eligible to apply.
Officers will be chosen from applicants by the operating committee, made up of four members of WSGA, four members of MSC, and eight members of the faculty and alumni.
New officers will take office immediately after they are chosen, and will be in charge of activities this summer, according to present plans. Henry Werner, chairman of the operating committee, said.
Bachmann, Pope Will Play For Midweek Tomorrow
Bachmann and Pope's band will play for the Mid-week from 7 to 8 tomorrow night. Dancing will be in the main lounge of the Memorial Union building.
Admission will be free for dates and ten cents for stags.
Senate Budget Bill Approaches Regents' Request
How to provide maintenance for buildings and equipment was the only major worry of the University administration after the report of the committee on ways and means on senate bill No. 249 Friday. Otherwise the sums in a large measure restored over the director's cuts are satisfactory.
The bill at present means the increase in salaries of personnel as requested. The Geological Survey will get even more than was at first requested, and sufficient money will be had for the war-time summer session, considering present plans. Laboratory apparatus appropriations still would be $5,000 short of the request.
The establishment of a fellowship for industrial research is an indication of the attitude of the legislators toward developing the natural resources and industrial possibilities of the state for both wartime and postwar conditions.
The summer session appropriations, the 1945 sum somewhat less than for 1944, represents a response to an emergency situation.
The sums provided by the bill are as follows:
as follows:
1944 1945
Salaries and wages

Schoeppel Opens Kansas Red Cross Campaign Here
Governor Andrew Schoeppel and a University faculty and student group made an appeal for Red Cross funds, as they launched the campaign of the entire state in a variety program last night over station KFKU.
The announcer, Guy Keeler, and Allen Crafton and Robert Calderwood, professors of speech, reviewed the volunteer work of Kansas women on the war.
The program was divided into two parts by the playing of a medley of service songs as a suite to American fight men. Right members of the radio speech co-dramatized a marine skit, written especially for the occasion by the radio section of the Midwestern are headquarters of the Red Cross. The following

WSGA and MSC For One Council

Kansan Contest Begins Today
The "Random Harvest" contest, which will have thirty theater passes as prizes for the winners, began today under the sponsorship of the Kansan and the Jayhawker theater.
Any student is eligible to enter the contest. All that has to be done is write an original statement of 25 words or less, on the subject, "Why I Want to See 'Random Harvest.'" All entries should be turned in to the Kansan business office in the journalism building before 5 o'clock Thursday evening. Two passes to the Jayhawker will be awarded for the ten best statements and one free pass to the next ten best. The contest will close Thursday evening.
Passes will be mailed to the winning contestants Friday evening so that they will be received Saturday. The names of the winners will be announced in Sunday's Kansan. Statements will be judged for sincerity, neatness, originality, and promptness.
Chairman of the judging committee will be James Gunn, College junior. The other judges will be Mary Morrill, College freshman, and K.W. Davidson, director of information for the University and member of the journalism faculty.
Decisions of the judges of the contest will be final, and the Jayhawker theater and journalism department reserve the right to use the contest statements in any way they see fit.
The contest is being held in conjunction with the showing of "Random Harvest" at the Jayhawker theater March 7-14. "Random Harvest" is currently in its eleventh week of showing at the Radio City Music Hall in New York.
Packers Warn Public Of Diseased Meat In Black Market
Washington, (INS)—Eating of diseased meat sold to the public through a black market is threatening the health of the American people, congress was told today.
A warning came from Wilbur La Roe, Jr., general counsel for the National Independent Packers association, who said. "For many years the packing industry has cooperated with the department of agriculture in protecting the public against diseased meat. Now the black market threats to undo all that has been done because diseased meat is just as bad as the bootlegger's liquor."

The new WSGA constitution and election plan has been abandoned for the present, and all effort will be directed toward the coalition government. This combined constitution will be presented to the student body for vote after it is completed. Second Step
Second Step
"This is the second important step taken this year to make student government what we would like it to be," declared Vernon McKale, president of MSC. The first step was the creation of Dr. Woodruff's committee set up as a result of resolutions of both councils last fall. This committee investigated other student government systems. "Separating the governments of men and women has become a false separation. Student government will become progressively better since it has quit trying to differentiate between them," McKale continued.
Plans for the unicameral system will be worked out by a joint committee for the sake of speed. Members of the committee are Marge Rader, senior in education; Peggy Davis, College junior; Mary Morrill, College freshman; Jane Lorimer, junior in business; Jill Peck, College junior; Vernon McKale, senior in engineering; Art Nelson, College senior; Clarence Miller, senior in engineering; and Harlan Cope, College junior.

The WSSF drive closes on the campus tonight, with the close of "Tag Day." Student teams have been busy today tagging persons who have not already contributed.
Thornton McClanahan, chairman of the drive, has requested that all contributions from faculty members, and pledges from students be turned in by Wednesday night, as the committee wishes to close the books as soon as possible.
The only organized social event for the purpose of raising money for the drive was the Pi Beta Phi box-social Monday night. The guests, members of the Phi Gamma Delta and Phi Delta Theta fraternities, added $55.71 to the fund.
McClanahan stated that the results of the drive are not yet known but that it is "going well."

Bye had been stationed at Sternberg General hospital in Manila since October, 1940. Prior to that he had been employed in Topeka drug stores.
Anxiety for his safety after the fall of Bataan and Corregidor had been expressed by his friends and he had been reported "missing in action" by the war department.
Collision of Navy Planes Kills Former Student
Two former students both enrolled in the University in 1942, were victims of the mid-air collision of two navy training planes near Los Angeles, which naval authorities announced yesterday.

Columbia Has New Scout Executive Dr. Elbert K. Fretwell, professor of education at Teachers College, Columbia University, has succeeded Dr. James E. West as chief scout executive of the Boy Scouts of America.
Muskrats May Appear On Tables This Year If Trappers Remain
Chicago, (INS) — If the southern trappers only will stay on the job, there should be 20,000,000 pounds of muskrat meat for American tables next winter, Henry Broch, Chicago dealer in frozen foods, declared yesterday.
Broch said that two weeks ago he had orders for a million pounds of the meat in Chicago alone, but couldn't deliver.
"The trappers let me down," he said. "Before the next season opens next November, we must educate them to the possibilities of the industry, now that we may encounter shortages in ordinary meats."
Hollywood, (INS)—Slapsy Maxie Rosenbloom — actor, exprizefighter and nightclub impresario — almost went home from court in a barrel last week.
He advocated that the government encourage the trappers to remain in the business, instead of quitting for war jobs as they did this year. The muskrat, known there as "marsh hare," abounds in the Louisiana marshes.
Slapsie Maxie Home In Barrel-Almost
Recent victim of a burglar—two of his 20 tailor-made suits were pilfered—Rosenbloom hied to court to testify against the theft suspect, Daniel Gonzales, 24, bartender.
The district attorney told Rosenbloom to bring one of the suits, which police had recovered, to court as evidence. Maxie did. He wore it. "Would you leave the suit in court as an exhibit?" asked the attorney. Rosenbloom offered to "take it off."
"Bring it in to tomorrow," said the judge.

Rich Concert Given By A Cappella Choir
BY JEANNE SHOEMAKER
A rich, full-voiced choir last night did not disappoint an audience which had braved an icy March blast to hear them sing at Hoch auditorium. Famous for its well-blended and balanced voices, Dean Swarthout's a cappella choir did an excellent job, despite the fact that a few of its male members had left for the army, and the concert was given $ ^{ \dagger} $
"Where're I Roam or Linger" (Gretchaninoff), a gay, fast folk song well-enunciated by the choir, was probably the best liked of the group of Russian numbers. The choir got a chance to show its volume and ability to crescendo in thg great "alleluias" of the three other pieces in this group. "Cherubin Song" (Glinka), "O Praise Ye the Name of the Lord" (Nikolsky), and "Be Joyful, All Ye Lands" (Gretchaninoff).
The group of 16th and 17th century numbers was highlighted by Helen Colburn's soprano obligate, while the choir hummed "Forsake Me Not" (Rosenmueller), a religious number of great beauty. Well-liked by the audience was the lively 16th - century number, "Lovely Month of May" (Jannequin). Two other numbers in this group, which were reminiscent of the old Catholic church were, "Misericordias Domini" (Durante) and "Haec Dies Quam Fecit" (Palestrini).
Knowing that this was probably its last public appearance as a mixed voice choir, the group gave everything it had to this concert. Ranging from the powerful dramatic "Jesus and the Traders" (Kodaly) to the gentle, melodious "Music When Soft Voices Die" (C. Dickinson), the choir showed its ability to sing in any volume and still sound like one voice.
a month and a half before schedule.
Soprano Obligato
Sings "Ode To Music"
After intermission the choir sang Dr. W. Otto Miessner's choral tribute to the power and sway of music, "Ode To Music," "Dedication" (Franz-Cain), a soft number which developed power and ringing force as it grew, and the melodious "Song of the Aran Fisherfolk" (Hamblen).
This last piece, sung in perfect harmony by the choir, portrayed the rising and falling of waves by the swaying of voices.
In the last group the audience heard the choir use its strength in "Jesus and the Traders," based on the story of Jesus driving the money-changers from the temple, and then its ability to restrain itself in the beautiful, lyrical "Music When Soft Voices Die." After a Stephen Foster melody about a steamboat called "The Glendy Burke," the choir ended its concert with "Hymn to the Soul," a number of magnificent power and beauty.
Wayne King Named in Radio Suit
Chicago, (INS)—Franklyn MacCormack, radio poet, Capt. Wayne King, orchestra leader, and the R.C.A. Manufacturing company were named Friday in a suit for an accounting of receipts from the recording of a poem, "Because You Love Me."
The suit was filed in circuit court by Miss Elenor Yorke, 23-year-old poetess, who claims authorship of the poem and charges that Mac-Cormack sold it as his own.
Capt. King provided the musical background for the poem, and R.C.A. produced it, the bill charged.

Congratulations to Gerald Tucker for living up to pre-season predictions that he would break some kind of a scoring record. His 18 field goals and 2 free throws against Nebraska last night, with two and at times three Cornhuskers guarding him, certainly deserves honorable mention in any sport's column. * * * * *
Last night another conference had two of its scoring records broken. Andy Phillip of Illinois sank 40 points to aid his teammates roll up 92 points in crushing Chicago 92 to 25 in a Big Ten conference game. Both are new Big Ten records. Chicago in the meantime continued its record losing streak by dropping its 40th straight conference game.

Dr. Forrest C. Allen will visit Col. Raymond W. Briggs of the Seventh Service Command in Omaha before the Jayhawker game with Creighton Thursday night.

Colonel Briggs attended school at Fort Sill and Fort Leavenworth with Col. Pete Allen, brother of "Phog."

"Phog" Allen's University of Kansas cagers turned back the University of Oklahoma Friday night to win undisputed possession of the Big Six flag for 1943, they established a record that no other major university basketball team in the United States has ever remotely approached. Between 1922 and 1943, every University of Kansas player who has played under the Naismith
When the Helm's Foundation two weeks ago rated Dr. Allen as America's number 1 basketball coach, there were few throughout the land who would dispute it. Many, however, as down through the past quarter of a century, have continued to shake their heads in amazement and to wonder how the doctor does it.
Allen's record bears out the statement that he has always opposed the practice of subsidizing athletes. As a matter of fact, he has probably approached fewer team prospects among secondary school luminaries than any coach in the country. Dr. Allen, except when his sons, Milt and Bob, were playing with the Lawrence Memorial High teams, has never attended the state high school basketball tournaments. He has been sure that had he done so, the hue and cry would have gone up that the Doctor was "ivory hunting." Consequently, he has stayed away.
Against Subsidized Athletes
There are no athletic scholarships for basketball players at the University of Kansas. Dr. Allen maintains that a subsized athlete won't fight as hard as a scholar. Down through the years, he has maintained that studies come first. Which, he believes, is one of the reasons
his teams have consistently been winners. Of the current crop of sophomore standouts, one of the brightest luminaries came to Dr. Allen at the start of the basketball season with the problem that he was down in five hours in the school of engineering, and asked what he should do. Allen reminded him that he was at Kansas first to study. When he had made up his delinquency and if he still wished to come out for basketball there would still be time. And that sophomore has broken the backs of many heroic opponents in the stretch drive this year with timely baskets.
Allen insists that his players have at least a "C" average in their grades to participate in the annual freshman-varsity gmae which is the kickoff for the cage season each year.
"It is a matter of record," said Allen, "that all I promised him was three of the toughest years of competition he would ever find anywhere. By now, I guess he knows he has had two of them."
When Oklahoma's great Gerald Tucker was casting about for a school where he could utilize his excellent cage ability in the stiffest competition, he had a chat with Dr. Allen.

Education Is First In All Competition "Scholarship," the Doctor continued, "should be used as a halter to lead these young broncos in the right direction. Education is the competition. Then at 60 or 65, the star who has also made the most of (continued)...

Kansas Seeks Ninth Victory In Big-6 Play
The Kansas Jayhawkers, with the 1943 Big Six basketball title securely tucked away, will attempt to make it nine straight conference victories tonight at Columbia against Missouri.
The Jayhawkers will have to continue their winning streak to equal the record of the 1936 Kansas team which went through conference play without a defeat. That year the team won 16 games without a setback. This year's team has won 20 out of 25 games.
Missouri has a chance to take second place in the Big Six if she upsets Kansas tonight. Otherwise the best that the Tigers can hope for is a tie with Oklahoma, if they defeat the Sooners Saturday night at Norman.
The players which Coach "Phog" Allen took to Columbia yesterday are Ray Evans, Jack Ballard, Otto Schnellbacher, John Buescher, Harold McSpadden, Max Kissley, Hoyt Baker, Paul Turner, Bill Forsyth, and Bob Fitzpatrick. Bill Brill was left at home.
Coach Allen probably will play most of the squad if the game fares well for the Kansans. Buescher, Ballard, McSpadden, Forsyth, Kissell, and Turner should see a lot of action tonight for they will be the only players left for the game with Creighton Thursday night in Omaha.

The following named cadets have been chosen as contestants: Frank B. Tyler, Edwin Crowley, Hillman Dickinson, Dale Linglebach, and Leonard Diehl. Each man shoots only one target in each of the four positions, which means four practice shots and 20 that count. Firing will be done under the supervision of Lt. Col.

Targets for the recent Seventh Service Command contest have been sent to headquarters at Omaha, Neb. and results should be released in about two weeks, according to Lt. Col. Jack Gage, director of rife marksmanship at the University.
Tucker Sets Record In Big Six Scoring
"Join the Red Cross"
Five of the fifteen University marksmen, who completed the Seventh Service Command Intercollegiate Gallery match Feb. 28, will enter the William Randolph Hearst National ROTC rifle competition this week. Every senior university and college in the United States is eligible to enter the Hearst competition, for which targets must be completed March 12.

Ursula Parrott Acquitted Of Concealing Deserter
Miami, Fla., (INS)—Ursula Parrott, famous novelist, was found not guilty last week in Federal court on charges that she smuggled a soldier out of a prison stockade and concealed him from the army. The jury was out less than 17 minutes.
The all-masculine jury cleared Mrs. Parrott of the charges of aiding and concocting a deserter $ ^{2} $
The all-masculine jury clear aiding and concealing a deserter and impairing the loyalty and discipline of the armed forces, which had been pressed against her since December 29.
According to the testimony of Maj. Walter S. Danuser, officer in charge of the stockade, the author had paid 20-minute visits to Pvt. Michael Neely Bryan on four consecutive days. On the fifth day, December 28, Mrs. Parrott and the soldier spent two hours together, seated in the rear of her motor car.
Major Danuser had gone home when a stockade check revealed that Private Bryan was missing. The officer and the Miami Beach provost marshall, Maj. Henry Tyson, described that search was made useless when 24 hours later Mrs. Parrott and Private Bryan surrendered at the office of A. L. Raithel, Miami narcotics agent.
Bart A. Riley, attorney for the defense, directed his questions during the trial to show that Mrs. Parrott, with the unwitting help of Bryan, had been a big factor in the smashing of a marijuana ring in New York.
RECORD PROVES---ing basketball a "big time" sport. "Sure," he said, "we have played in Madison Square Garden many times, and we have done all right there, too. Also, we have been in our share of N.C.A.A. playoffs. Of course, the University of Kansas Athletic Association should have had its just share of the proceeds, which it didn't get. But what I mean by "big time" basketball is a practice of lucrative scholarships, easy jobs, and all that goes with such. Maybe we'll have professional basketball after this war, however. Who knows?"
(continued from page four) his education will have little to worry about concerning his place in the sun."
For illustration, he named a couple of dozen of stars, some of them all-Americans, who have played at Kansas during the last 20 years—all of them occupying important executive posts in the business world. Preparation for living, he pointed out, was their first aim. Athletics came second. Too many of the young men today looking for easy jobs and big scholarships are selling their birthrights for a mess of pottage. Things won't be like that when they get out of school, he said.
"Phog" says he is opposed to making basketball a "big time" sport.
Allen maintains that he is not opposed to professional sports—far from it. But as a goal for college men, they are misleading, as well as disillusioning. It is his aim, he points out, to make the young men under him realize that hard work on the job they are doing is the first and main objective of education.
Of course the chief reason for Allen's long winning streaks is the members of his teams themselves. When interviewed privately, nearly all of them admit that they came to K.U. to play under Allen because they figured he would produce a winner. And he has—nineteen times out of his 26 years on Mt. Oread.

Washington Sees Postwar Plans Starting Soon
Washington, (INS)—Authoritative quarters in Washington believe the time is approaching when the United States, Great Britain and Russia should try to reach a joint understanding concerning the post-war treatment of the Germans.
There are strong indications in official and diplomatic circles that the United Nations generally are likely to favor drastic control and decentralization of Germany's over-developed war industry.
This problem is expected to figure prominently in some of the discussions which Undersecretary of State Summer Welles announced last week would be started "at once" by the American government with other members of the United Nations.
These discussions are intended to deal largely with post-war economic problems, and it is anticipated that they will include the question of how a defeated Germany should be treated economically.
Dr. Alexander Loudon, Netherlands ambassador in Washington, recently advocated that Germany's industry be controlled by an allied commission for two generations after the war.
Decentralization of Germany's over-developed war industries is expected to be carried out in part by transferring a considerable amount of machinery to those European countries whose industries have been destroyed by the German military might.
In American quarters, the view prevails that no specific time limit can be set; that it must depend entirely on how long it takes the German people to give convincing evidence that they have abandoned for all time the philosophy of superior race and conquest by force.
Diplomatic observers believed the industries which are left intact must be strictly controlled and prevented from being used for warlike purposes. It is felt that most of them could be used to develop materials needed for the reconstruction of Europe.
There is a strong belief in United
Never Too Late To Get Re-Married Says Couple, 72-78
Clayton, Mo., (INS)—"Two people just can't be married for 32 years, as we have been, and then try to get along without each other for the rest of their lives," Mrs. Lula Rooney, 72, declared last week after remarrying William Rooney, 78.
Mr. and Mrs. Rooney were divorced three years ago after 32 years of marriage and were remarried at Clayton.
"We realized we weren't getting any younger, and we are so fond of each other that we decided to kiss and make up," Mrs. Rooney said.
William Rooney, a justice of the peace for the past 16 years, recently married three elderly couples about his own age, and decided "There really must be something to marriage, after all."

Fleming and Wilson To Debate Thursday
Edith Ann Fleming and Lois Blackburn Wilson, College juniors, will participate in a series of debates on the University of Missouri campus Thursday, Prof. E. C. Buehler of the department of speech said

The subject of the debate is "Resolved: That this house deplores war marriages." Fleming and Wilson will take the negative approach. The debate will take place before a student audience.

OPA Raises Ceiling Prices On Wheat, Says It Will Soon Control Prices
Washington, (INS) — Capitulating to Congress after a row over consideration of benefit payments in fixing farm prices, the OPA has announced it would soon set up price control on wheat.
Salary Limitation Illegal, Says Princeton's Mvers
The capitulation came as the OPA revealed that it had raised ceiling prices on soft wheat flour by approximately eight per cent in the East, South and Midwest. The price increase means the cost of crackers, cake, and biscuits at retail stores will be boosted.
Dr. Myers, in Los Angeles for a series of addresses, declared:
Los Angeles, (INS) — President Roosevelt's $25,000 salary limitation order was described yesterday as "unparadonable, illegal, and unconstitutional" by Dr. William Starr Myers, head of Princeton University's government and political science department.
"It is doubtful that congress could pass such a law constitutionally, but clearly it is absolutely unconstitutional for the executive to do so."

Unicameral Student Council Near Realization On Campus
In separate votes last night, the Men's Student Council and the Women's Self-Governing Association expressed almost unanimous approval of plans to combine their two organizations into a unicameral student council, a step that should save the student self-governing system before it topples over the brink it has been heading for in the last two years.
An attempt at formulating a unicameral student council on the campus has been made before but has failed adoption. Thirty years ago the idea was brought up, but the idea of women's suffrage was still not fully accepted by the men at that time, and the plan fell by the wayside. Two years ago, the idea was killed by the efforts of political parties on the Hill. Finally the system seems almost ready to be adopted.
A one-house legislature certainly does deserve a fair trial on the campus. The past two years have witnessed an almost complete lull in student government. The only noteworthy accomplishment was council members' efforts in obtaining a longer Christmas vacation. They did a praiseworthy job in this, but it was done with the two houses meeting in joint action as a unicameral body. This is evidence enough that the plan deserves a trial.
Chancellor Malott has expressed favor of the idea, saying that "the idea of a unicameral council intrigues me." He believes that the two working as one would certainly be more powerful and more effective. As the council improved in efficiency it would become entrusted with more of the student affairs in the future, and student government on the Hill would regain its reputation.
The details of how the council will be set up have yet to be worked out, but action is being taken. The current idea is to elect one councilwoman for every 200 women on the Hill, and one councilman for every 300 men. This plan seems the most favorable considering the normal make-up of the student body. At present the women would be in control, but after the war an approximate balance would be maintained.
The MSC and the WSGA showed that they are really interested in student government by their action last night—it is up to the students to give them support.
Freedom of the Press Essential If Another War is to be Avoided
"The most important force in international affairs today is the foreign service of the American Press associations and newspapers under the leadership and direction of men who are interested in and concerned with the free flow of information rather than with any form of propaganda by, for, and of governments, or political systems or peace societies."
So said Carl W. Ackerman, dean of the graduate school of journalism at Columbia University in a recent article concerning the necessity of a free press if the world is to avoid a third world war catastrophe. A World War I correspondent, and a world traveler, Dean Ackerman is qualified to speak on his subject.
Dean Ackerman first warns that if the present wartime censorship and restrictions continue throughout the next peace conference, "the treaties will be made by propaganda If that happens, global peace will have to be maintained by propaganda. In that case there will be no national or international freedom of news; psychological warfare will continue and lead inevitably to another war."
Just Wondering
If housewives aren't distressed by the high point value of certain foods formerly a standby, and now virtually impossible to buy.
Because news today has become the chief factor in determining international relationships, Dean Ackerman maintains that freedom of speech as provided in the Atlantic charter must mean freedom of international communications, otherwise it cannot be universal.
Dean Ackerman gives Kent Cooper, general manager of the Associated Press, credit for his fight for a peace-time free press. Mr. Cooper has pioneered this fight, and he blames the lack of freedom of the press in Europe for the present war.
Mr. Cooper presents a 5-point plan for international education under global peace: "First, guarantee freedom of the press throughout the world as we know it. Second, guarantee that at least one news agency in each country be owned and controlled mutually by the newspapers it serves. Third, guarantee that each agency may make such international news exchange arrangements as it chooses. Fourth, guarantee equality to all in the matter of availability of all official news and transmission facilities, and fifth, prohibit the international covert inclusion in any news service of biased international propaganda . . . International intercourse would rise to heights of perfection with the barriers down as to news exchange."
Dean Ackerman and Kent Cooper have made serious studies of this problem and know whereof they speak. We hope United Nations leaders will not fail to profit from their studies when the post-war world policy is unfolded.

Rock Chalk Talk BY JIMMY GUNN
A Likely Story: John Conard, Jayhawker editor, was in Topeka recently, working on the new Jayhawker magazine when he happened to remember that he had a date in Lawrence that night. John called up, said he couldn't make it.
Said John, "There's a landslide between Lawrence and Topeka."

A case of mistaken identity: A young man from Battenfeld hall called a girl at Corbin he has been dating, Marjorie Doctor. By confusing the last names, they gave him Margery Johnson instead. He talked with her about school, studies, and so forth (as boys will talk about and so forth). Finally he told her what time he would be over.
Margery was a little uncertain about the whole thing by this time. "Is this John?" she asked.
"Who? This is Dewey—Dewey Nemec."
Later Dewey called again and carefully checked both first and last names.

"A gurrr bbbbb skkkkkk" repeated the waiter.
"Yes, a grrrr cbbbbb stkkkkk," said the sailor.

Now Is The Time For---
Such Is Life
The scene is any fraternity or organized house. The mail carrier has just arrived. Men are rushing down the stairs. The men on the telephone watch leave their posts and race madly for the mail. The boys with 4-F classifications use their 210 pounds to trample unsuspecting Reservists.
By PAUL BROWNLEE
At last all is calm. The mail has disappeared. Suddenly a shrick rents the air.
"Ye Gods! I've got a quiz tomorrow. These are not my orders. Anybody got an accounting book? Joe! Can you withdraw if you haven't got your orders?"
This gentleman is pushed aside by the seething group as it winds itself away from the mail box and the man at the phone frantically grabs the instrument and scarcely breaths, "Is this the Registrar's office? This is the Iwanta Draw house. Oh. You say this is Nell. Who do you want? Sam. He ain't here. He went home. I'll tell him you called. Yeah, Yeah. He got his orders. Maybe he can see you Saturday night. Good bye."
All is quiet. The only sound is the even breathing of the men. There is drone to the breathing—something like "I want go, Igottagtmyorders, That quiz Monday, Iwantgo." The watch at the telephone changes again. The tension is too high for an extended length of sitting and hearing from no one but the laundry is particularly nerve-wracking.
Ah. Peace!
The door burst open and a student of the college with his hair flying into the wind, his eyes glassy, his breath coming in great pants, falls across the threshold. The group surrounds him. He is carried to the bathtub, revived, and a scribe with pencil twitching violently leans over him.
"I'll talk. I'll talk. Give me a far."
"What did you hear, Pete? Now take it easy, you—What in the — did you hear?"
They're Off
His breathing returns to normal as the weed burns to his finger tips and he says, "Men, the guy that sits next to me in Speech said that one of the boys at his house heard somebody say that the registrar heard that the Naval Reserve would be called within six weeks. Quick give me another fag."
---
The group explodes. Some rush for the business office to withdraw. Others are at the phone telling someone goodbye. A few are sending telegrams home stating that they will arrive as soon as necessary steps are taken here on the hill. One member with a 4-F classification moves the piano in order to give the men more packing room. Another warped physical specimen carries in the afternoon mail. He glances through it.
"Say here's a letter from Charlie. Yeah, he's at Jefferson Barracks. He says he never ate so much in all his life. They've wired our barracks; turned on the hot water; and we've got plenty of blankets. But I believe I'd rather take that quiz in Stat that I missed than that 10-mile cross country hike at five tomorrow morning."
Then the door opens and a calm individual announces that the call of the Naval Reserve must have been a rumor, because Woody doesn't know anything about it.
And the watch returns to the phone and the other boys lean back in their chairs while the 4-F boys speculate on their probable date of re-classification.

Letters to the Editor
Editor:
We wonder about this war for the preservation of democracy in practice, when one of our star trackmen is not sure he can run in the Big Six meet Saturday simply because he is a Negro. What is there about his being black which would make his running of less value than if he were white?
★
While we freely condemn Hitler's anti-Semitism, we ignore our own discriminatory practices. Let us start winning the war on our own campus by acting on our democratic ideals, and giving the same basis for these ideals to the Negro.

U S Expects To Send Russia More Food
Washington, (INS) — Lend-lease administrator Edward R. Stettinius, Jr., yesterday told congress that the food situation in Russia is growing "increasingly critical" and the United States expects to send more food to the Soviet this year than to Great Britain.
Urging continuance of the lend-lease program, in testimony before the senate foreign relations committee, Mr. Stettinius
emphasized that American alie has played an important role in the Russian victories against the Nazi armies.
"The assurance that the flow of these munitions and other vital supplies would continue at an accelerated rate has also been of importance." he added.
"The Soviet Union has been able to expend its equipment with the knowledge that replacements and help were coming and would continue to come."
Have Not Sent Enough
Russia, he said, will realize little immediate benefit from recapture of food-producing areas from the Nazi invasion.
While he reported that the U S has shipped lend-lease goods valued at $1,300,000,000 to Russia, he conceded that "We have not yet sent enough supplies to the Soviet people." Partially breaking down the list of goods, he said that in addition to planes, tanks, and trucks, the U S sent Russia more than 130,000 submachine guns; more than 88,000,000 pounds of TNT and tuluo; and more than 174,000,000 pounds of copper and brass, as well as other munitions, raw materials, and food.
Stettinius said that lend-lease is now an offensive instrument for the United States.
"The food situation in the Soviet Union is now critical," he said. "It will grow increasingly critical for some time to come. We expect to send more food to the Soviet Union this year than to Great Britain."
Promises Aid to China
He promised that every effort will be made to increase lend-lease supplies to China. The United States, he said, is supplying 10 per cent of British food imports.
The United States, he said, has received valuable lend-lease aid from Britain, Australia, New Zealand and other United Nations countries.
"The people of Great Britain are on a diet which is less adequate and varied than the diet which is anticipated for the people of this country under our rationing program," he said.
"Any falling off in food shipments to the United Kingdom would seriously imperil the United Nation's war effort."

US Soldiers Study While In England
American soldiers in Britain who have attended college in this country will find that the British have made provisions for their entertainment, both socially and intellectually, according to a recent British press announcement.
The American University Union has been established as a meeting place for both officers and enlisted men of university connections, and for their friends. It provides reading and writing room, a complete file of current catalogs from American and British universities, a lending library, and detailed information on educational opportunities in Great Britain and Ireland.
Special courses are being conducted at Oxford, Cambridge, and London Universities for American troops on leave. Faculty members of each university lecture on philosophy, psychology, religion, and the social sciences in general.
"Life" magazine recently featured pictorial reports of soldiers on leave at Oxford who were attending lectures.

Red Cross Sets Student Quota
The University quota for the Red Cross membership and war fund drive which started yesterday, is to average 50 cents for each student. Plans have been made for contacting the sailors although no quota for them has been set, Ruth Kelley, chairman of the collection group, reported today.
Dr. F. C. Allen, in charge of the University collection, decided that his community recreation class would be the most logical unit for student collection since one phase of such an undertaking is working with, and helping, the physically handicapped. Dr. Allen is reported to be very optimistic about the outcome of the campaign.
All of the organized houses will be contacted by mail and a representative will call to collect the money by Thursday, according to Miss Kelley, College senior. The community recreation class will meet tomorrow and then on Friday to check results.

Senate Will Vote On Labor Bill Soon
Topeka, (INS)—The new bill putting Kansas labor unions under strict state control was ready to go to the senate calendar this afternoon.
Senate leaders said they hoped to bring the controversial bill to final consideration in the upper house this week. If favorably acted upon by the senate, it will go to the house where a favorable vote is almost assured.
Today the house placed on its calendar the measure prepared by the state affairs committee to move up the Kansas primary date to the last Tuesday in April and provide for voters to express state presidential preference. Primaries are now held on the first Tuesday in August.
Kansas lawyers today were a step nearer enacting a law placing control of members of the bar under the state bar association. The house judiciary committee today recommended for passage the integrated bar bill already passed by the senate.
Also, the house judiciary committee reported and placed on the calendar without recommendation a proposal to amend the constitution to elect governors and lieutenant-governors for four years instead of two.

Books Requested For Service Men
University students, faculty and other staff members are being asked to participate this week in the 1943 Viety Book Campaign. The army and navy have designated the 1943 Victory Book Campaign as the official agency for the collection of books to be distributed among the nation's fighting men.
Sponsoring the national drive to obtain "more and better books" in 1943 are the American Library Association, the American Red Cross, and the United Service Organizations. The local drive is under the direction of the Coed Volunteer Corps. The national campaign board points out, however, that this is not a drive of libraries alone, or of the Red Cross or the USO. It is a huge cooperative effort of every element in our society, working together to secure these books for the armed forces, the board explains.
Recommendations from the army and navy special service officers responsible for library service indicate that the following kinds of books are needed:
2. Adventure and westerns, detective and mystery fiction, in good condition.
1. The current best sellers and the more recently published popular fiction and popular non-fiction in good physical condition.
3. Technical books published since 1835 in the fields of mathematics, machine mechanics and design, electricity, radio, photography, aeronautics, navigation, chemistry, physics, military science, and other fields.
4. Funny books—books of jokes,
humorous stories, cartoons and
group games.
5. Pocket books, and other small-sized editions of popular titles
Persons having books to contribute may leave them at Watson library, it was announced toady. The books should be turned in by Saturday, March 6th, CVC officers explain.
Law Journal Prints Article By Moreau In February Issue
February's issue of the quarterly Journal of The Bar Association of The State of Kansas contains an article "Fraudulent Conveyances in Kansas—Substantive Law" by F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law. Dean Moreau has made several talks on this subject during the year, and this article is being published simultaneously in the Kansas City University Law School Review.
The only case comment listed in this issue was "Constructive Trusts and the Kansas Probate Code" written by Miss Hazel A. Anderson, member of the second year class in the School of Law and law librarian.
Social Factors Prevent Allied Invasion of Italy
Chicago, (INS)—Italy is ripe for an invasion, but "Darlanism" and negotiation with Italian Fascists would spell disaster for the Allied cause. S. William Halperin, assistant professor of modern history at the University of Chicago, warned last week.
"We must never forget that Fascism originated in Italy." Mr. Halperin said in a lecture. "If we blunder in our dealings with Italy now, we may live to see her become the seed of another Fascist movement."
Mr. Halperin said that Italy was made ripe for an invasion through its fear of the military situation in North Africa and Russia and its hate for its German masters.

"It has been the sincere wish of this council to, at all times, legislate in the best interests of those whom it represents. Speaking for this WSGA council, I ask that the women of this University favorably consider such a plan of student government."
SCHOEPPEL OPENS----
(continued from page one) sideration, the WSGA has reached the unanimous opinion that through a unicameral system of student government this University and its student body will ultimately benefit; and attain, through the potentialities of such a system, a student government that is more completely representative of all students, more efficient because of centralized management, and more effective because of direct cooperation between both men and women.

Anatomy Building Razed By Wind-Blown Flames
Vault May Save Some Equipment
Fire of undetermined origin beginning shortly after 7 o'clock tonight destroyed the anatomy building of the school of medicine between seven and eight o'clock tonight. University officials were unable to give an estimate of the damage pending an inventory of the contents of the fireproof vault located in one corner of the building which contained most of the valuable equipment used in the building.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott stated that approximately $20,000 worth of slides in addition to valuable charts and departmental microscopes were in the vault. Actual damage cannot be determined until it is possible to make an investigation of the contents of the vault after the embers have died down.
The fire was discovered at ten minutes after seven by Sam Elliott, University custodian, as he was on his way from Fraser Hall to Strong Hall, administration building. Elliott said a vision of smoke puffing?
Elliott, University custodia. ser Hall to Strong Hall, adn he saw a wisp of smoke puffing up over the entrance to the building on the south, and that he shouted "Fire." Sailors in the naval machinists' mates school, who were stationed at Fowler shops across the street from the building called the fire department, and Lawrence fire fighting equipment arrived on the scene within a short time.
In the building were between fifty and seventy cadavers used for dissections by the medical students. Just what damage was done to these was conjectural, but members of the medical staff believed the damage would not be great as many of the bodies were in the basement and all were encased in fluid and contained in steel tanks. The bodies are kept in a phenol solution of approximately ten percent which was not inflammable.
Planning Committee Meets
While the embs were still smoking, members of the medical staff met with Chancellor Malott and other University authorities to discuss plans for continuing classes in other buildings on the campus. Chancellor Malott said that classes would continue tomorrow as usual, except for the inconvenience occasioned by the students loss of notebooks, charts, and other valuable materials. Final plans were not possible until an investigation of the full loss of essential materials was made.
Chancellor Malott pointed out that it was planned to vacate the building as soon as Lindley Hall, throw mineral industries building already for occupance. The anatomy department was to have been moved into Haworth Hall, housing the geology department, after the geology department had been moved into its new quarters in Lindley
Hall. Lindley Hall is expected to be ready for occupancy about July 1 of this year.
Constructed In 1921
The building, a one story frame structure, was constructed in 1921 for a University commons. It was used as such until 1927 when the Memorial Union Building was opened. The anatomy department was moved into the structure in 1932 from Dyche Museum, when Dyche was condemned and closed for repeirs.
Between 1927 and the time the anatomy department moved in, the building was used as headquarters for University student publications, the university stenographic bureau, and practice rooms for the University band.
Chancellor Malott pointed out that the only reason the building had not been vacated before was because it was impossible to find quarters for the anatomy department in other campus buildings.
According to Dr. H. C. Tracy, professor of anatomy, the explosions heard during the fire were probably cans of formaldehyde or other chemicals, instead of the tanks in which the cadavers were stored.
Hundreds of sailors, stationed on Mt. Oread in the naval school for machinists' mates, assisted the Lawrence firemen in combatting the blaze.
Dr. C. W. Asling, assistant professor of anatomy, is believed to have been the last person in the building. He stated that he left the building at ten minutes after six am that everything appeared to be in order at that time.
The destruction of the anatomy building was the first important fire on the campus since the Fowler Shops fire in 1918.

An announcement will be posted on the bulletin board in the office of the School of Medicine in Haworth hall at 9:30 this morning, designating the time and meeting place of classes formerly eld in the Anatomy building, Chancellor Malott announced.
Students May Help Move Bodies
Notes On The Fire
The Buildings and Grounds department will move all cadavers that were salvaged in the anatomy building to Snow hall at 6:00 tomorrow (Thursday) morning. The department will be able to use all student help available. Three trucks will transport the cadavers to Snow hall.
A strong southwest wind added to the ferocity of the fire which soon attracted a large crowd of spectators. Smoke and bits of charred paper could be seen for several miles.
Persons in downtown Lawrence observed pieces of burning paper dropping on the streets soon after the fire started.
A bus driver arriving in Lawrence said that the blaze could be seen as far away as Tonganoxie and that many persons in that vicinity drove to Lawrence to see the burning building.
Students and townpeople thronged to the Hill by the thousands to see the frame building of the anatomy building go up in smoke.
Medical students organized watching parties to stand guard over the still-steaming vault where valuable equipment was stored and which is still hoped to be intact.
Throwing themselves into the battle with the flames determinedly and courageously, the machinists' mates on the Hill organized fire lines and aided the firemen in directing the streams of water against the burning building as effectively and efficiently as if they had been on a burning quarterdeck.
First Big Fire Since 1918 Fowler Blazed Then
The fire which destroyed the anatomy building tonight was the first serious fire on the University campus since Fowler shops burned during World War I on May 9, 1918.
The Fowler shops fire occurred just three weeks before the building was to be turned over to the government for use in training soldiers. The loss at that time was about $16,000 to the building and about $18,000 to the equipment. The shops
almost as they had been before the fire. Some of the machinery was later reclaimed and put into working order.
A fire of lesser seriousness in the tower of Fowler shop damaged ROTC uniforms and equipment to the sum of about $4,000 on July 17, 1932.
Powerhouse Burned In 1898
Another fire which affected University students was the fire of 1898 which destroyed the powerhouse. At this time, a two-weeks' vacation was forced because of lack of heat and power. Before 1898 the engineering shops had been in the powerhouse. After the fire, a separate shop building was constructed.
George A. Fowler, a Kansas City packer, gave the University $18,000 for the construction of the new shops which were named in honor of his father. The building was constructed in 1899.

Templin, Former Dean, Dies
Member of Staff Served School Nearly 60 Years
Olin B. Templin, secretary of the University Endowment association, and for nearly 60 years a member of the University staff, died this morning after an illness of nearly two months. He was 81 years old, and until two months ago had kept regular office hours and been active in University affairs.
Dean Templin, as he was affectionately known to students, alumni and faculty members, came to the University as a student in 1881, and three years*
later became an assistant in the department of mathematics. He served in this post until 1890, completing work for the A.B. degree from the University in 1886. In 1890, he became associate professor of philosophy, serving in this capacity until 1893, when he was made chairman of the department. Became Dean in 1903
In 1903, he became dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, a position he held until 1921. During his tenure of office as dean, he also served as professor of logic, ethics and esthetics.
Dean Templein received his master's degree from the University in 1889. In 1888, he went to Europe where he studied at the University of Hottingen, and at the University of Berlin, returning to the United States in 1889.

V-7 Asks for Officer Candidates to Train For Engineering Duty
Additional officer candidates for engineering duties are needed in Class V-7 of the Naval Reserve, it was learned from a recent Navy department memorandum to Dr. Laurence C. Woodruff, registrar.
Qualifications for enlistment under this plan are basically the same as previously in effect for Class V-7, except that candidates must be regularly enrolled students in engineering, mathematics, or physics with junior or senior standing.
Enlistees are to be placed on inactive duty in order to continue their studies toward the required degree.
Persons interested have been advised to contact the Office of Naval Officer Procurement, 1009 Baltimore avenue, Kansas City, Mo.
Faculty Plots Are Prepared For Gardening
About 35 plots of ground have been marked off for faculty members for their Victory gardens this spring, Prof. G. W. Smith, of the mathematics department, announced today. These plots are located in two sections: one south of the University and one to the west.
The gardens, ready for planting, will be started as soon as possible after the present cold weather is over. Several faculty members planned to plant their gardens last Saturday, but none were started.
Many of those who were successful last year have arranged for plots this year. This group includes Raymond Nichols, executive secretary; Elmer F. Beth, associate professor of journalism; V. P. Hessler, professor of electric engineering; Parke Woodard, associate professor of physiology; N. W. Storer, associate professor of physics and astronomy, and G. W. Smith, professor of mathematics.
Members of the committee to arrange and assign plots are Professor Smith, Mr. Nichols, and C. G. Bayles, superintendent of buildings and grounds.
A variety of foodstuffs was grown last year, such as corn, tomatoes, spinach, beans, and squash.
The small reading room of Watson Library will be closed from 6 to 7 p.m., owing to the lack of library personnel. C. M. Baker, director of libraries, announced today.
Library Rooms Close During Dinner Hour
The large main reading room will, however, remain open during this hour.
Mr. Baker explained that this step was necessitated because of the difficulty in obtaining student help willing to work during the dinner hour.

Allies Knock Out Jap Convoy Fleet
(International News Service)
One of the greatest victories of the war was recorded today by the announcement of Gen. Douglas MacArthur that a Japanese invasion fleet of 22 ships had been completely destroyed by Allied bombers. More than 15,000 enemy troops went down on their burning and splintered transports, and 62 Japanese planes that vainly sought to
planes that vainly sought to protect the convoy were destroyed.
"Merciful Providence has guided us in this great victory," said General MacArthur.
The Japanese armada, consisting of 10 warships and 12 transports and cargo vessels, was sighted Monday off the north shore of New Britain island, steaming westward toward the New Guinea coast. By Wednesday afternoon not a vestige of the fleet could be seen. Not a life boat or raft was sighted anywhere on the broad expanse of the South Pacific patrolled by the victorious aircraft.
"We have achieved a victory of such completeness as to assume the proportions of a major disaster to the enemy."
Guided in Victory
Australia, fearful of invasion from the Japanese-filled islands fringing the northern coast, breathed secure. Axis Suffer.
On other fronts meanwhile, the Axis suffered heavily. The RAF swept over Germany for the eighth consecutive night, blasting the great
port and U-boat base of Hamburg in a gigantic attack that cost 10 planes, while other objectives in western Germany were heavily plastered. The German air force made weak attempts to retaliate on London during the night.
In Russia Soviet troops moved steadily onward following recapture of Rzhev and Stockholm reports said that German forces already are beginning to evacuate Orel.
German forces in Africa made a number of fruitless attacks. One infantry smash supported by tanks was thrown back by British light elements on the Mareth line.
Legislature Plans Bill For New Anatomy Building
Topka (INS)-Legislative leaders acting quickly after the fire at Lawrence last night, today were giving consideration to the introduction of a bill to provide funds for the reconstruction of the anatomy building at Kansas University.
They said chances for the introduction of the special appropriation wre good.
cleared away some of the debris this morning.
The greatest loss of an individual probably was suffered by Dr. H. C. Tracy, professor of anatomy, who lost much of his life work, and nearly all of his personal library, one of the finest medical libraries in the world. This loss of books is irreplaceable. Many volumes were the only books of the kind in the United States.
Vault Saves Equipment
Because much of the valuable equipment had been placed in the fire-proof vault the damage was not nearly as high as it could have been. Nearly all of the department's microscopes had been placed in the vault, along with priceless slides, drawings, instruments, and models
One destroyed microscope, valued at $20, has been found. Dr. Charles Wolfson, instructor in anatomy, was reported to have lost two microscopes in the fire.
Loses Slides
Margaret Schumann, technician of the anstomy department, lost valuable slides in the fire. Many blank slides were found melted together. Her office was completely destroyed including many valuable books and models.
A model brain standing nearly four feet high was destroyed. This manmoth model was the only one of its kind in the United States, according to medical students.
The cadavers on the main floor of the building have been moved to

Professor Birkhoff To Address Siqma Xi
G. D. Birkhoff, professor at Harvard University, will speak on "The Mathematical Nature of Physical Theories" at 8 p.m. Monday in Fraser theater at a special meeting of Sigma Xi. The public has been invited to hear him.
Professor Birkhoff has been designated a national Sigma Xi lecturer for the current year. Pre-eminently a mathematician, he has also done work in physics and philosophy. His lecture here will combine material from these three fields.
Professor Birkhoff is a past president of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. In 1936 he was selected as one of the 70 "pontifical academicians" of the newly organized Pontifical Academy of Science, Vatican City, the only mathematician outside Europe selected.
During 1942, he served as an exchange professor with Latin American universities, giving lectures in the universities at Mexico City, Lima, Arequipa, and Santiago. Professor Birkhoff has written two books on relativity and one on aesthetics.

Drive To Sell New License Tags
Topeka, Kan., (INS)—The Shawnee county treasurer's office in Topeka was swamped today with applications for 1943 auto license tags.
The surge was the result of a local drive against motorists who have not purchased 1943 tags and is probably a forerunner of a state-wide campaign, officers said.

Zack Presents Piano Recital
Melvin Zack, pupil of Dean D. M. Swarthout, gave his senior piano recital last night, one month earlier than originally scheduled.
With his teacher, Dean Swarthout on a second piano, Zack reached the climax of his recital with his one long number, "Concerto in C sharp minor—Op. 30" (Rimsky-Korakow).
Other numbers were three preludes by Debussy, "Les sons et les parfum tournet dans l'air du soir", "La serenade interrompue," and "Ce qu'a u le vent d'Ouest."
Zack's first number "Organ Fantasia and Fugue in G minor" (Bach-Liszt) was a heavy, typically Bach number and was a direct contrast to the light variation of a Norwegian melody "Ballade, Op. 24" (Greig) which followed.
Zack, who leaves soon, for the army, has been an advanced student in piano at the University during the past two years. Vice-president of Phi Mu Alpha, national musical fraternity, he is also a member of the University band. Before coming here to school, Mr. Zack studied two years at the Julliard School of Music in New York City.

Allies Suspect German Fleet
London, (INS)—Belief that a powerful German fleet is preparing to put to sea in a desperate effort to cut Allied supply lines in the Atlantic was voiced yesterday by the naval correspondent of the Daily Express.
The super-dreadnought Tirpitz has been lurking in Norwegian fjords for months. According to reports reaching the Daily Express, it has been joined by the newly completed aircraft carrier Graf Zeppe-lin, and the battleship Scharnhorst which has been fully repaired.
A number of cruisers of the Hipper class, and other German warships of various types have joined the Trondheim concentration, the writer stated.

Andre Maurois To Speak Here
NATIONAL EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION 1943 Active Member
Andre Maurois, French author and historian, will speak on the subject of "Our Common Heritage," at 8:20 p.m. Thursday, March 11, in Hoch auditorium, as the next feature of the Community Lecture course.
He has had the unusual distinction of serving both the English and French armies during the present war. As a member of General Staff, he was able to see the direction of the forces, and will be able to tell what actually happened during the battle of France.
His position on the General Staff was that of a press liaison officer attached to British headquarters, and his familiarity with the leading numbers of Paris and London society, both increase his value as a news commentator.
Famous for his books long before the war, Mr. Maurois has recently finished "Tragedy in France." Other books he is noted for are "The Silences of Colonel Bramble," written concerning England after the first World War; and "Ariel, or the Life of Shelley." his most popular work.
He has lectured at Princeton University, and at Mills College, and he presented the Lowell lectures in Boston in the winter of 1940.
Raids Are Only The Beginning
London, (INS)—Capt. Harold Balfour, Parliamentary Undersecretary of War, commenting on the heavy bombing of Berlin said, "Taking the long view of the war these raids are but the opening bars which will rise to the crescendo of a march on Europe."
Butch is on a BALANCED DIET!
This situation isn't covered by Army regulations. But we're betting that Butch will find a way to handle it!
In fact, we electric companies know just how he feels. We have the same problem. Right now, we're being called on to balance good service and low, regulated rates against fast-climbing costs and tremendously increased demands for electric power.
We're doing it, too. Filling all our war orders. Giving America far more power than all the Axis countries combined. Pushing production up and up. . . And besides that, we're balancing a big plate of taxes.
Don't get us wrong. We know the need of wartime taxes. We're proud that business-managed electric companies paid $620, 000,000 in taxes last year. That was 23c out of every dollar you paid us — 8c to local and state governments — 15c to the federal government — enough to outfit 1,687,762 buck privates.
a
DIET!
How is it possible to make so much power and meet so many taxes at the same time? Because of sound business methods and long experience — because men, women and management worked together as a team.
But while we're doing all this, government and municipal power systems are not paying
a penny in federal taxes to help win the war... Shouldn't every one do his full share?

Mid-Week Left In Lurch; DancersShunMusicForFire

Besides the damages incurred in pecuniary loss when the anatomy building was destroyed by fire last night, there were other damages just as evident to the eye, but not so injurious in monetary values.
For instance, the scheduled mid-week last night definitely played a second fiddle role to the excitement that went on
For instance, the scheduled played a second fiddle role to around screaming fire engines, leaping flames, and the forceful streams of water which gushed from the fire hose. The Pope-Bachmann band was left "in the lerch" so to speak, until their dancers could tire of the colorful excitement. But it was difficult to recover the interest of men and women students attending the dance after the scream of that first siren.
Injuries incurred by the band were confined, however, to mere loss of pride.

Creighton Favored In Tonight's Game
"It'll be murder for us," was the comment made by Coach "Phog" Allen yesterday before boarding the train for Omaha where his greatly depleted basketball team will attempt the nigh impossible by trying to upset Creighton tonight.
The two teams met on the local court last December 15 with the Creighton Bluejays defeating the Jayhawkers 38 to 33. At
Jayhawks were inexperienced with Schnellbacher and Evans just fresh off the football field. Buescher is last of Iron Five
While on the eastern trip, teamwork improved and Coach Allen worked up an Iron Five, consisting of Buescher, Black, Dixon, Evans, and Schnellbacher, which won 13 consecutive games. But Johnny Buescher is now the only member of that Iron Five who will play tonight. At the same time Creighton's coach, Eddie Hickey, has available the same seven men he used against Kansas at their last meeting. Those seven men are Langer, Bisser, Gibson, Loisel, Salen, Knowles, and Lally.
The make shift line-up which "Phog" Allen will send in to start the game will probably be Johnny Buescher, "Sparky" McSpadden, Jack Ballard, Paul Turner, and Max Kissell. These five players saw considerable action in the Missouri game Tuesday night. George Dick, Bob Fitzpatrick, and Bill Forsyth are the only other players making the trip.
Dr. Allen had written to Eddie Hickey, Creighton coach, offering either to forfeit the game or to
A. E. H.
DR. F.C. ALLEN
bring a patched-up lineup to Omaha, Hickey, however, urged that the game be played "because we owe it to our loyal fans and because Coach Allen will bring a very representative Kansas squad to Omaha despite personnel losses." The Creighton coach added "We don't regard this final game as a romp-in for us, we're expecting a good game."
The Kansas mentor then, consenting to go through with the game, said that he expected a thorough shellacking even though John Buescher. senior center will be in the game.

Wiley Surprised At Quality of Band
"I am surprised at the quality which the new band has already achieved in its first two meetings" was the report today of Russell L. Wiley, concerning his new band which is the result of a merger last week between the University Band and the All-Girl Band.
The spirit of the 80-piece band is better than that of either band a month ago, said Mr. Wiley.
Band practice is held from 7:30 to 8:20 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings in Hoch auditorium. The band is rehearsing numbers for the annual Spring Concert to be given April 12 instead of March 24 as previously scheduled, Wiley said.
K.U. Beats M.U In Extra Period
John Buescher and Max Kissell in an overtime period, kept the University of Kansas' Big Six conference slate clean by sinking a pair of long loop shots to give the Jayhawkers a 47 to 44 victory over Missouri.
Throughout the first half the Tigers kept close on the heels of the Kansas team and trailed at the half by only two points, 22 to 20.
Missouri forged ahead in the first six minutes of the second half and at one time reached a 7-point lead, 36 to 29, which was the widest margin achieved in the game by either team.

Schnellbacher, Buescher, and Kissell then launched a Kansas rally which brought Kansas into the lead 39 to 37 with 7 minutes remaining in the game. Jenkins, Missouri forward then tallied to tie the game, 39-all. Then Schnellbacher scored to put Kansas back into the lead but once again Jenkins scored a field goal to tie the score. Free throws by Buescher and Schnellbacher and a last-minute goal by Missouri's star, tied the score at 43-all to end the game.

In the overtime period Buescher and Kissell sank a pair of field goals for Kansas and Thornton Jenkins sank a free throw for Missouri. The game ended with Kansas on top 47 to 44.
Jenkins of Missouri was high scorer of the game with 16 points. Schnellbacher tied with Austin of Missouri for second place scoring honors with 13 points.

BY MATT HEUERTZ
Although "Phog" Allen says that his team will be "murdered" tonight in Omaha by Creighton, this writer is of the opinion that the veteran Kansas mentor will inspire his boys to such heights that Creighton's Blue Jays will have to battle the whole game if they expect to come out on top.
It is not likely that "Phog" would venture to mar the reputation his Kansas teams have enjoyed by putting a team on the court which wuould be thoroughly outplayed. He could have forfeited the game with a legitimate reason—the loss of two thirds of the personnel of the basketball squad.
KANSAS HAS WON 21 GAMES
The Kansas coach probably believes that the showing which his reserves will display tonight will not in any way damage the prestige which the Kansas team carried throughout the season with its record of 21 victories against five defeats. Only one of those defeats was registered by a college five, namely Creighton.
There is a chance that Kansas will upset Creighton's record of not having been beaten by any college team this season. Their only defeat was at the hands of the powerful Great Lakes aggregation.

EVANS AND SCHNELLBACHER MAY PLAY
The rumor "hounds" are saying that Otto Schnellbacher and Ray Evans will play in the game Saturday night in Hoch auditorium against Kansas State. They have until midnight, Saturday, to report to Fort Leavenworth and thus may get to play in Kansas' last Big Six game.
NCAA WITHOUT VALLEY ENTRY
With Creighton, Missouri Valley basketball champion, and Kansas, the Big Six basketball champion, turning down invitations to play in Kansas City's NCAA tournament, it looks as though tournament officials will have a hard time picking some team from the Missouri Valley for the playoffs. Creighton has accepted an invitation to play in Madison Square Garden in New York at the time of the Kansas City meet.

OPA To Add Foods To Rationed List
-
Washington, (INS)Butter, cooking fats and oils and most types of cheese will probably be rationed along with meat about April 1, OPA sources disclosed yesterday.
While no decision has yet been made as to the exact amounts of the new commodities that will be allowed consumers, the
meat ration has been tentatively set at 134 pounds per person each week.
OPA officials said that meat and the other types of commodities will probably be placed under the new point rationing program at the same time. Meat purchases will be made with the use of the red coupons in ration book No. 2. Must Less Butter
It was learned that the number of points assigned for the ration of butter will be high to encourage the use of oleomargarine and butter substitutes and lessen the heavy drain on butter supplies which have been short in recent months.
The rationing of cooking fats and oils will include vegetable shortenings and lard. Nearly all types of cheese, except only a few, including pot cheeze and baker's cheese, will be placed under the new controls.
There were reports in some sources that meat and cheese would be lumped together under the tentative ration of 1 3-4 pounds but this was denied by high OPA officials.
Won't Require Declaration
Declarations of consumer supplies of the new commodities most likely will not be required when they are placed on the ration list. OPA sources said this step was not believed necessary since most of the products affected deteriorate rapidly and could not be hoarded very well. Neither will there be an advance freeze on the sales of these products.
As in the case of canned and processed foods now under point rationing, the allotment for meat, cheese, butter and other commodities will be the same for each person. Officials said that poultry and fish will not be included in with the meat ration.
According to the present program it is not planned to require consumers eating in restaurants to give up coupons for meat and other products, but purchases by the eating houses will be restricted through ration allotments.
Specific dollar and cent ceiling prices on pork will be issued later this week, effective April 1, and maximums will follow on other meats.
OPA officials said that they expected the meat rationing program would strike a blow at the black markets which have been spreading throughout the country.
WEATHER

House Considers Taxation Plans
Washington, (INS) — With two plans for pay-as-you-go taxation now before it, the house ways and means committee is laboring to break a deadlock of members over the course it will chart to keep war funds flowing into the treasury and bring taxpayers up to date.
One committee group contends that unless something like the Rumil plan is adopted, taxpayers cannot get out of debt for taxes, and may get even further behind.
The Ruml plan was presented almost a year ago by Beardsley Ruml, chairman of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, but is strongly opposed by the Treasury, which favors collection of a pay-as-you-go tax at the source rather than Ruml's plan for quarterly collection and abatement of back taxes.
Informed quarters indicated that there is no chance of success for a modified version of the Ruml plan introduced yesterday by Rep. Carlson (R) Kan. Carlson would combine the Ruml plan with the Treasury's program for collection at the source.
Queen Contestants To Be Entertained
A tea will be given at 4:30 ofclock, Monday afternoon, in the Old English room of the Memorial Union building for the 50 remaining contestants in the Jayhawker beauty queen contest, John Conard, Jayhawker editor, adviser today. Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, will be the hostess at the informal tea.
Soon after the tea is given, Conard said, the contest judges will select the 15 entries to be sent to Varga, Esquire's artist, who will choose the queen and her attendants.
All seniors who have not called at the Jayhawker office to select the proof of the picture they wish to have printed in the Jayhawker magazine must do so immediately, John Conard, Jayhawker editor, announced today. If the proofs are not selected by 5 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, Conard said, the Jayhawker staff will select them.

Japan's Losses Near 125,000
Washington, (INS)—Japan's fruitless attempts to capture and hold vital points at New Guinea and the Solomons have cost the enemy between 100,000 and 125,000 fighting men and 125 ships, survey based on battle reports disclosed.
These losses in troops, naval personnel and air men have occurred since mid-summer of last year when Gen. Douglas MacArthur's forces began their drive to retake Northern New Guinea and the marines launched their successful invasion of Guadalcanal.
Under-secretary of War Robert Patterson today revealed that severe fighting has broken out in China between the Japanese and the Chinese with heavy casualties on both sides.
Patterson made this announcement as he stated that the "brilliant victory" of Gen. Douglas MacArthur over a Japanese invasion fleet had upset the enemies' plan in the south-west Pacific.
Burial Services Held Here This Afternoon For Miss E. B. Simons
Private funeral services at the Ramsey funeral home were conducted this afternoon for Miss Etoile Bessie Simons, a graduate of the University in 1895, who died Tuesday evening at the home of her brother, W. C. Simons, in Lawrence.
After her graduation from the University she taught in the Lawrence high school and later obtained a doctor of philosophy degree from the University of Chicago. She taught in Indianapolis and at Western College, Oxford, Ohio for a number of years, and then became personnel manager for the Fred Harvey dining system, which position she held until retirement several years ago.
Dancing and card games entertained University women yesterday at the first WSGA tea this year. The tea was given in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building. Gamma Phi Beta sorority women served as hostesses.
This year it was necessary to discontinue the regular teas, because no room was available. If enough interest is shown in the teas, an effort will be made to have them again, Marybelle Long, WSGA social chairman, said.

Because Dean Templin was ill, the address was read by Dr. Roy Towne, assistant professor of romance languages. The title is, "My Religion." Dean Templin was a guest speaker at the church; he was not a member.
What do you worship? Maybe it is the U.S. Constitution, or the Republican platform or your favorite poet or preacher. In the new Germany it is Hitlerolatry; in Russia, Stalinolatry; in Japan, the worship of the Emperor; in the United States — well, take your choice. Whatever you feel the need of most, whatever affords you the deepest satisfaction to contemplate, that is your god—or those are your gods. Tell me what you honestly believe is the greatest thing in the world and I will show you your god or gods. You probably can not do that. You will certainly fall into some conventional pattern of thought and expression. In other words, you will insist upon being orthodox in your pretensions, even to yourself. Well, what of it?
I have been trying to decide what above all else seems to me to be worthy of my adoration. There are many things that to me seem touched with the quality of divinity. Of these, Youth most nearly embodies the divine principle as I think of it. What can be compared to it? I have seen much of it, and always it grows more impressive and more magnificent.
It is the great creative force in the story of the race. As it carries the physical principle of the future humanity, it carries the spiritual. It is the Creator in bodily form. It comes onto the scene sweet, alert, abounding, splendid, joyous.
It assumes power and rebuilds the world we care for and are dependent upon. It walks the earth bearing the fate of mankind as it is and is to be, in its keeping. What is so glorious as youth, embodied in young men and women?
Above all else, I am grateful for having been closely associated with young people. For always they were striving to become more capable, more useful, more may I say? divine.
Yes, Youth has been my God.
My religion is the religion of all men. I approve and join with every man in his religion, just so it makes him happy and does not make other people unhappy. Because that is what Religion is for.
Victory Book Campaign Is Deserving of Student Support
University students and faculty have been asked to contribute to so many funds and drives in the past few weeks that a Victory Book Campaign may sound like the last straw. However, an encouraging thought is the realization that this request to "Give books a man can enjoy" does not necessitate any expense to the contributor. Volumes from personal libraries are most acceptable providing they are in good physical condition and that the subject matter is desirable.
Just Wondering
If the smart alck stunting and diving by aviators over the Hill can't be stopped before somebody gets killed.
The 1943 Victory Book Campaign Committee has the following to say of the drive:
"A valuable and conveniently packaged projectile of morale is a good book. This book may deal with the war; it may deal with the peace; it may range from current affairs to history and biography; it may entertain, inspire, illuminate; it may provide technical information to help a fellow get ahead in the Army or Navy today and in civilian life tomorrow. But most importantly, it is a book that is not dog-eared or tattered; it is not scrap. The first function of a book is that it be read. Only books in first class physical condition can be used."
"As a weapon in the war of ideas, a book has a place to fill in this war. Whether as a source of morale or information, it is recognized by our military leaders as part of our fighting equipment. Our purpose, therefore, is to provide books—good books, and by that we embrace both physical condition and readability-for the increasing millions of our fighting men—soldiers, sailors, marines, coast guardsmen, merchant seamen. We also propose to provide books for USO centers outside the camps, and for the American Merchant Marine Library Association."
"To sum up, a good test for any book is this: Any book you really want to keep is a good one to give."

He was just getting into the spirit of things when some helpful soul informed him that the box he was holding at the moment and for which the bid had reached $1.25 belonged to Peggy Schroeder, "whose company he has been keeping." John's face turned rosy as he set the box in the corner and said quietly and finally that the box was sold.

Sparks from the fire: Gerald Tewell and Cliff Parson, student linotype operators, came to the pressroom of the Kansan at seven o'clock last night to begin work for the University of Kansas Press. They saw T. C. Ryther, director of the University Press, rush through and thought nothing of it. They saw George Rinehart, journalism professor, rush through and thought nothing of it.
Mr. Rythere came back through and commented: "You certainly are the coolest couple of fellows I've ever seen!"
They took the compliment as their just deserts and continued work. E. G. Stith, foreman of the shop, came in. They asked him why he was on the Hill. He replied that he wanted to get warm at the fire.
Gerald and Cliff said: "What fire?" They had been working diligently during the time of the fire.

Point System
Those Were The Days Has Its Points
Scene one.
Place: An apartment in a rooming house for University women.
Time: A month ago. About dinner time.
Roommate two: (Writing a letter)
"Um-m, could be. Perhaps the cook down stairs has boiled the beans dry."
Roommate one. (Looking up from book.) "Hey, don't I smell something burned?"
(A few moments pass.)
Roommate three enters room: "I think I smell something burning—who's cooking tonight?"
Roommate two: Sue and I, why?
Roommate three: "Well if you want to have those potatoes for dinner, you had better save them quick!"
Roommate two: (leaves room for the kitchen.) "Don't excite yourself. Sue can go down to the store and pick up a couple of cans of something. Don't worry — we'll have something to eat."
Scene two:
Place: same as scene one.
Time: Present. About dinner time.
Roommate one: (leaving through new ration books) "What are we having for dinner tonight, Sue? Corn, peas, green beans, and
peaches?"
Roommate two: (from kitchen)
"Don't be unpatriotic. You're having parsnips, sweet potatoes, salad, and corn starch pudding. And what's more, you're liking it."
Roommate three: (Centers room with list of rationed food in her hand.) "Did I hear you say that we're having canned peaches? Listen—that can can't be used until Saturday. And then it will have to last two days. Gee—for the good old days when you could let something burn and not have to go without your dinner."
Those were the days, yes, but as a result of the rationed point system for food, there are some favorable points for the cook. Meals now must be planned without the can opener in the right hand and a can of fruit or vegetables in the left.
The cooks will have to originate a few culinary dishes. In time, they will be proud of their combinations. A conversation at a dinner table might sound similar to this:

Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor:
The Daily Kansan staff should be congratulated for the diligence and enterprise it showed in publishing the extra edition last night. Entirely on their own initiative, the students covered the fire, dug up historical background material, got a good photograph, had a halftone engraving made on special order, arranged for the printing, and distributed the paper on the campus and downtown.
★
Despite the loss of many executives and editorial assistants who were called to military service, the Daily Kansan staff continues to give its readers the best service possible—and such extraordinary service as this fire edition and the extra edition on Dec. 21, which gave details of the University Senate's action extending the Christmas vacation.
The University of Kansas Press also should be praised for its willing co-operation in the task of printing the extra editions during overtime hours.
The Daily Kansan today is one of the best college newspapers in the country and one of the very few which have not yet curtailed service because of war condition. Even some of the largest college papers, like the Princetonian, have been forced to suspend publication for the duration.
ELMER F. BETH,
Acting Chairman of the
Journalism Department
Putting Out An Extra Keeps Shack Open Late
By BILL HAAGE
Last night we journalism students got our first chance to operate the Kansan as a metropolitan paper by putting out, without any faculty supervision, an extra edition about the anatomy building fire.
I came up the Hill to the Midweek and of course noticed the fire. While wandering around in the crowd, trying to find all I could about the cause $ ^{\textcircled{2}} $
and damages of the fire, I met nearly all the members of the News Photography class who were taking pictures from every angle.
Using these as a nucleus, we gathered reporting students around us and talk of an extra edition began to float around. Several persons asked us jokingly if we were going to get out an extra, and we replied, also jokingly, that we already had an extra on the streets.
Go To Darkroom
About 8 oclock when the flames began to die down, we ran to the darkroom to begin developing our films, and the talk of an extra began to be spoken of more seriously.
We got a story of the fire from K. W. Davidson, head of the K U news bureau, who supplemented his information with facts picked up mostly by Paul Brownlee. Joy Miller, Sunday editor, acted as editor and began making the layout and assigning stories. I wrote the heads and edited the copy.
Look Through Files
On the reporting staff were Florence Brown, Charles Taylor, Paul Brownlee, Jimmy Gunn, and George Robb, who dug through the files for stories about past fires and phoned around for the notices and other short stories on the page. Pierre Kimball got a good picture with a Speed Graphic and it was sent down to Duke D'Ambra to have a cut made from it.
Meanwhile, Taylor and Betty Lou Perkins called the fraternities and some of the sororites and told them to come and get the papers. Virginia Tieman, managing editor, also helped in distribution.
Press Workers Help
Cliff Parson and Gerald Tewell, who were working in the University Press shop, dropped their work, and cut paper from the one-page issue, set the type, made up the page, and were ready to go by 11:30 when the cut arrived. The paper was printed on one side of a page the size of the Kansan on one of the platen presses
used in the job shop because the type of the last issue had been distributed and not enough type was available for more pages.
By 12:30, the run was complete, and the job of circulating the issue began. Several of the organized houses sent runners to the journalism building for their papers and any journalism student who came into the Shack was given an extra handful for the organized houses on his way home. Papers were delivered on foot along Fraternity Row and to most of the houses in that part of the city.
Deliver Kansans
Charles Taylor and I jumped in his car and delivered several of the extras to nearly every organized house on the Hill and in West Hills. We took an armload down town and stuck them in merchants' doors, scooping the Kansas City Times on a story that broke on a week night.
We finally finished at a restaurant about 2 o'clock this morning and ate breakfast. We were sorry that we couldn't deliver papers to all the regular subscribers, but it would have been impossible to get our carrier boys up in the middle of the night to deliver papers.
POINT SYSTEM--the basement of Lindley hall. Workmen are cleaning the wreckage that is covering the tanks in which approximately fifty cadavers are supposedly in excellent condition. These cadavers have not been used by medical students and were being stored in these underground tanks. As soon as the wreckage is removed the bodies will be moved to the basement of Lindley hall.
I've seen with one square inch of meat, sweet potatoes, a turnip, and something that looks suspiciously like the pealings from my breakfast grapefruit. Surprisingly how good it is."
(continued from page six)
Women will now exchange ideas for making one can of peas, one pound six ounces, sixteen points, last for three meals. The food purchaser will take pride in the variety of food he can purchase on 48 points. The salad lover who habitually tossed together a salad for a midnight lunch will have to be content dreaming of new fresh vegetable combinations for the next week. The point system does have its points.
Musical Program Given For Sailors
BUY U.S. WAR BONDS
The second in a series of regular Wednesday night musical programs for men enrolled in the naval training school was presented to an audience of sailors who filled the auditorium of Frank Strong hall to capacity last night.
The program was worked out by K. O. Kuersteiner, professor in the School of Fine Arts, in cooperation with the naval recreational director, Frank P. Butorac. Last nights program consisted of two songs by Ruth Russell, "In the Middle of the Sea" and "Will You Remember Me?" a piano solo, "Rhapsody in Blue," by Martha Dooley; two marimba solos, "Yanke Doodle Dandy" and "Mary" by Robert Jenkins; and several vocal tri numbers by Norma Lutz, Joyce Shook, and Grace McCandles.
Knox Speaks Of Jap Fleet
The navy men took part in the program by participating in the group singing led by Professor Kuersteiner.
Washington, (INS)—Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox declared this week, "We will destroy the Japanese fleet before the war is over."

FIRE LOSS---on the hose would not match with the threads on the hydrant. The sailors believe they could have stopped the fire in the southwest corner of the building, the spot where the blaze was first noticed, if the hose could have been connected.
(continued from page one)
Turns In Alarm
The officer of the day at the Naval Training school turned in the fire alarm. The fire was reported to him by Tom Lydon, yeoman third class, who was in charge of the gangway desk. The alarm was turned in at 7:05 and according to Lydon the first fire truck arrived at 7:15 and the second at 7:20.
Sailors in classes in Fowler removed the hose from the hydrant inside Fowler shops and tried to attach it to the hydrant near the anatomy building but the threads
Sam Elliot, custodian, running toward Fowler shops, shouting "fire," attracted the attention of sailor guards, John V. Solussi, John Ciano, and Lloyd Chaney. Ciano rushed to the burning building and prevented three or four medical students from entering the building, while Chaney and Solussi ran to Fowler shops and turned in the alarm.
Hose Does Not Fit
By the time the fire trucks had arrived the fire was out of control, Dr. H. B. Latimer's office in the southeast corner of the building was not burned nearly as bad as the rest of the building. Firemen attributed this to the southwest wind and the fact that water was thrown on this part first.
Tearing Down Wall
The Buildings and Grounds department are tearing down the remaining portions of the east wall and members of the medical school are trying to salvage as much of the equipment as possible.
WANT ADS
The Chancellor and heads of the various schools and departments have been surveying the wreckage and checking available room space in the other buildings where medical classes may meet until arrangements are made for another anatomy building.

Olin Templin, Former Dean, Dies
A. H. BURKE
Olin Templein, former dean of the College, died this morning after an illness of nearly two months.
TEMPLIN, FORMER DEAN
(continued from page one) secretary of the endowment association, he has helped secure many important gifts for the University. Named after him is Templin hall, one of the scholarship dormitories for men at the University, maintenance of which is contributed chiefly by alumni of the school. Nearly two years ago, alumni and University authorities began a campaign to establish the Templin Fellowship fund, the goal of which was $12,000. More than half this amount had been raised at the time of Dean Templin's death.
Established Association
Dean Templin was responsible for establishing the University of Kansas Alumni association. He founded the University Endowment association, and originated the idea for the nationally known scholarship dormitory system for men at the University. He was a founder of the Southwest Philosophic conference, and also was instrumental in establishing the group known as the Deans of Liberal Arts in the state Universities of the Mississippi valley.
One of his greatest contributions to the University Scholarship funds was interesting Solon E. Summerfield, New York manufacturer in the welfare of young men wishing to attend the University, and establishing the Summerfield scholarships, which provide annually nearly $20,000 for worthy young men of high scholarship at the University. Has Two Daughters
He is survived by two daughters. Mrs. H. W. Rankin, of Albuquerque, N. M., and Mrs. W. H. Wallhouse, of Ames, Iowa; two sisters. Mrs. Elma Hirst, Richmond, Kan., and Mrs. Ida Diebert, Denver; and one brother, Dana Templin, Los Angeles.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott, in commenting today on the death of Dean Templin, said:
"A devoted, loyal, and untiring member of the University of Kansas staff for nearly sixty years, we shall miss his genius for putting creative ideas into beneficial effect. His work will stand as a memorial of idealism and genuine concern for the welfare of our youth through the generations to come."
Students from the public administration course at Elmira college recently spent a week in Washington to receive a more realistic picture of what the government is like.
Howey Will Return To Teach Business
Prof. R. S. Howey, professor of economics, will resume his position as instructor in the University after being discharged from the army because of the over-age regulation. Dean F. T. Stockton announced yesterday.
Professor Howey will instruct classes in mathematics in addition to his classes in the School of Business.
Word has also been received by Dean Stockton that Lt. William Shannon of the U S Navy, formerly professor of economics, is now stationed in Boston, and Capt. Joseph Taggart, also a former professor in the School of Business, is now stationed with the army in New York City.
Both are on leave from the University.
Don Keown, Kansan sports editor who is in the hospital with pneumonia, was reported to be quite well today.

Mme. Chiang Kai-Shek's Message
The loss of over 200 anatomy books in the fire last night was estimated by Mr. Baker to be at least $3000. Many of these books which were lost cannot be replaced now.
Mme. Chiang Kai-Shek's Message New York, (INS)—Mme. Chiang Kai-Shek: "Let us, the United Nations, which have come together by choice resolve to create a world resting on the pillars of justice, co-existence, co-operation and mutual respect."
Medical students stood guard last night over the still-steaming vault where equipment valued at thousands of dollars was stored. Upon examination this morning the equipment was found to be intact.
Arrangements were made for the CVC members to call upon each fraternity and men's residence hall to get the contributions to the campaign. The CVC has also placed a box in Watson library where books to be sent to service men may be left.

First Big Fire Since 1918 Fowler Blazed Then
The fire which destroyed the anatomy building yesterday was the first serious fire on the University campus since Fowles shops burned during World War I on May 9,1918.
The Fowler shops fire occurred just three weeks before the building was to be turned over to the government for use in training soldiers. The loss at that time was about $16,000 to the building and about $18,000 to the equipment. The shops were reconstructed at that time?
almost as they had been before the fire. Some of the machinery was later reclaimed and put into working order.
A fire of lesser seriousness in the tower of Fowler shop damaged ROTC uniforms and equipment to the sum of about $4,000 on July 17, 1932.
Powerhouse Burned In 1898
Another fire which affected University students was the fire of 1898 which destroyed the powerhouse. At this time, a two-weeks' vacation was forced because of lack of heat and power. Before 1898 the engineering shops had been in the powerhouse. After the fire, a separate shop building was constructed.
George A. Fowler, a Kansas City packer, gave the University $18,000 for the construction of the new shops which were named in honor of his father. The building was constructed in 1899.

Yanks Down Jap Aircraft In Sea Battle
(International News Service)
Obvious inability of Japanese planes and pilots to compete with American flyers although possessing numerical superiority was emphasized today when complete reports disclosed that 89 enemy craft were destroyed in the battle of the Bismarck sea.
A communique from headquarters of General Douglas MacArthur revealed that Allied byers disposed of an additional 27 Japanese planes over and above those first announced. Confirms Report
At the same time, MacArthur definitely confirmed that the entire enemy invasion fleet which had been sighted off the northern coast of New Guinea on its way to attack Australia was eliminated completely.
Never in military history has a hostile force been so completely wiped out.
On other fronts meanwhile new successes were scored for the forces of the United Nations.
Attempt Attack
In northern Tunisia the Germans attempted a new attack which brought about heavy street fighting in the little town of Sedjenane which stands athwart a road to Bizerte. The communique from General Dwight Eisenhower's headquarters said the assault was "successfully held" while American and French forces in the central and southern sectors made appreciable advances. Allied planes based on north Africa pounded incessantly at enemy transport columns and supply lines all over the battle area.
Soviets Smash Ahead
In Russia, Soviet troops smashed steadily ahead on a 1,000 mile front from Lake Ilmen to the Caucasus following recapture of Rzhev.

Dance After State Game Is Arranged
The second square dance sponsored by the department of physical education is scheduled after the KUK-State game tomorrow night.
Dancing will begin at 9 o'clock and last for an hour. There will be no half-hour teaching period at this party as there was at the first one. Miss Ruth Hoover, assistant professor of physical education, announced today that teaching of elementary square dancing steps will be offered at the next dance, however.
Whistle Is Quiet
Gone To War
The whistle has gone to war. For the first time since the whistle was installed at the power plant, no sound was heard from it when a fire broke out in the Anatomy building on the Hill Wednesday evening.
For the duration, nothing short of an air raid alarm or blackout signal will cause it to blow at an irregular time. To use it for fire warnings and emergency signals both would be confusing, officials believe.
Faculty Hears Nebraska Dean
Dean Nels A. Bengtson, of the junior division of the University of Nebraska and professor of geography there, spoke to a special faculty meeting of the entire staff of the University at 4:30 this afternoon.
At the recent deans' meeting in Nebraska, Dean Paul B. Lawson of the College was impressed with the organization of the junior division, and he requested Dean Bengtson to speak to the University faculty.
The chief function of the junior division is to advise and counsel freshmen. It specializes in gathering information about all freshmen regardless of the courses they take.
According to the junior division, after the student has been advised about his courses of study by a 'aculty member who has studied his particular case, he is required to appear for three conferences during the year with his counsellor. His progress is followed through his freshman year, and when it has been successfully completed, he may enroll in the regular schools of the University.
Snow Stops Salvage Work On Building
Snow and cold weather have stopped workmen from completing the job of removing debris from the ruins of the Anatomy building which was destroyed by a ravaging wind-blown fire Wednesday evening.
The buildings and grounds department moved all the cadavers from the main floor that had been used by students for dissecting work to the basement of Lindley hall where medical students cleaned and prepared the bodies for use in anatomy classes in Snow hall today.
All of the material in the fire proof vault in the anatomy building was saved. Medical authorities placed the value of the equipment in the vault at $30,000. A further search through the ruins raised the total damage nearer to $50,000 than the $25,000 first reported.
Vault Saves Material
Dr. C. W. Asling, assistant professor of anatomy, recovered a microscope that he had left on his desk. The case that contained the microscope was charred but the microscope was not harmed.
Left in Building
Cadavers, now preserved in a chemical solution in a vault in the southwest corner of the ruins of the anatomy building, will be left there until a suitable place can be found for the bodies.
All classes in the medical school met as usual after the fire. The students in the school did not miss a class.

Women's Halls To Open To Meet Large Demand
More requests for lodging for women students during the summer session have been received in the office of the adviser of women than at this time in any previous year, Miss Marie Miller, assistant to the adviser of women, announced today.
Tentative dates for the two summer sessions have been set: from May 23 to Sept. 10, four
Tentative dates for the two s from May 22 to Sept.10,for he 16 weeks session; and from June 12 to Aug.6, for the eight weeks session.
Three Halls Open
Three University halls to be open are Corbin hall, Watkins hall, and Miller hall. Corbin hall will be a residence hall serving breakfast and dinner every day. Watkins hall will also be a residence hall, and the women will have kitchen privileges. Miller hall will for cooperative living, and will organized, having student office If Miller hall is filled, another co-operative house will be opened.
Rates for living in the halls during the eight sessions are as follows: Corbin hall, $22 (each) for double rooms, and $35 for breakfasts and dinners (seven days a week); Watkins hall, $20 (each) for double rooms, and $5 (each) for use of kitchens and dining rooms; Miller hall, $8 for rooms, cost of food to be shared equally by students.
All these rates are doubled for residence during the 16 weeks session. Further details concerning living expenses may be learned at the office of the adviser of women in room 104, Fraser hall, Miss Miller said.
Buehler Elected Forensics Head
E. C. Buchler
E. C. Buehler, chairman of the department of speech and director of forensics at the University, has been elected national president of Delta Sigma Rho, honorary forensics fraternity, according to word received here today. Eighty-six of the nation's major universities and colleges have chapters of the society, but the only one in Kansas is located at the University.
Heads Fraternity
Red Cross Total Is Below Quota
The student collection of Red Cross funds has reached the $500 mark, but the drive is still far from the quota which is nearly $1500, or 50 cents per student, Ruth Kelley, chairman of the student collection group, reported today.
M. C. HAWKINS
Dr. F. C. Allen, chairman of the University division, was not back from Omaha in time to be with his class this morning, but he said yesterday that although the beginning was slow, "surely more contributions will come in next week."
The community recreation class met at 10:30 today to check results. All of the organized houses have turned in their contributions except seven. The women in the class met in the Memorial Union building this afternoon to collect from the sailors. This group will also set up tables in the Memorial Union building to contact students that have not yet been reached. Since tomorrow is the last day for the drive, Miss Kelley urges that all reports be turned in before tomorrow night.
Emphasis on History
The collections from the faculty and employees at the University total more than $900, according to a report by the committee this morning.
Colby College is placing increased emphasis on American history this year.
The society was established in 1906, and is the oldest of the forensic honorary fraternities.
Professor Buehler has been one of the vice-presidents of Delta Sigma Rho for the past six years. His fellow contestants for the presidential post were A. Craig Baird, of the University of Iowa, former president of the National Association of Teachers of Speech; and Milton Dickens, of Syracuse University.
Outstanding in Forensics
The honor comes to Professor Buehler largely as the result of his outstanding work in the field of forensics, in which his teams and speakers have attracted national and international attention. Professor Buehler has been executive secretary of the Missouri Valley Forensics League for the past 15 years, an institution composed of 12 of the leading colleges and universities in the middle west.
Under Professor Buehler's direction, the University of Kansas has won more debates and oratorical contests than any other school in the league. In 1936, his debate teams made a tour through the eastern section of the country meeting Princeton, Rutgers, Penn State, Northwestern, Wisconsin, Michigan, and other universities. His teams have also toured the western part of the country and have been invited to contest against the forensics representatives of leading universities on the west coast.
Student To Britain
In 1934, the University here was selected to send a member of American debate team to the British (continued to move right)

Geological Survey Maps Meade Artesian Basin
The geology and ground-water resources of Meade County are described in a bulletin just published by the State Geological Survey of Kansas. A feature of special interest is the discussion of the Meade artesian basin, located in the county, which contains more than 300 flowing wells. A map, included in the report, shows the area of flowing wells and the depth to water
level in other parts of the county. A well table lists 354 wells in Meade County. The report was prepared by Dr. John C. Frye of the State Geological Survey staff.
Artesian or confined water, of particular interest in Meade County, has been produced from sand and gravel beds encountered in many wells at depths of 300 feet or less. Its development was started in this area in 1886: now about 3,900 acre-feet of artesian water comes to the surface annually from wells, and an additional 3,200 acre-feet from springs.
Declined Slightly
The head of artesian water has declined only slightly in more than half a century. The investigation revealed that the amount of water that can safely be withdrawn from the artesian water-bearing beds is about 10,000 acre-feet, the amount of the annual recharge.
Unconfined ground water of good quality occurs under nearly all of Meade County. It has been found at depths below the surface ranging from one to 220 feet. Rennett Shores Residential.
Report Shows Possibilities
The report gives an analysis of irrigation possibilities in the various parts of the county.
The principal occupations of the residents of Meade County are farming and stock raising. Volcanic ash, or "silica," is the most important mineral product.
The investigation was sponsored by the State Geological Survey and the United States Geological Survey in cooperation with the Division of Sanitation of the State Board of Health and the Division of Water Resources of the State Board of Agriculture.

Chemist Demand Takes Students
Demand for chemists is so great that few stay to graduate, according to Prof. R. Q. Brewster, head of the chemistry department. In one day recently calls came for twenty women, although only four will graduate in chemistry this spring.
The number of students who enrolled in chemistry courses last fall was somewhat larger than in normal years, but enrollment has been depleted by students leaving for positions in chemical industries and for the service. The proportion of women enrolled in chemistry has increased somewhat, Professor Brewster said.
The department is still able to buy all the chemicals that it needs but only one month's supply is available at a time, and its use must be specified. Buying was formerly done yearly.
The new army and navy men, who will come this summer, will be enrolled in chemistry courses, and the problem of a shortage of instructors will have to be met then. Professor Brewster explained. The sailors on the Hill now do not take courses in chemistry.

Critics Praise Piano Numbers By Swarthout
Washington, D. C., musical critics gave high praise to Miss Evelyn Swarthout, concert pianist and daughter of Dean and Mrs. D. M. Swarthout, for her solos with the National Symphony Orchestra in Constitution hall last Sunday.
Miss Swarthout, who graduated from the University in 1932 with a bachelor of music degree, received a favorable comment from the Washington Evening Star which stated, "To Miss Swarthout, however, went the chief success of the afternoon, and the young artist kept the audience in its seats several minutes after her final recall in the hopes of an encore. Miss Swarthout played with superb mastery and deep musical consciousness. Her tone is exceptionally mellow and pleasing, and her technique has sweep and fire, quickly responsive to intelligent direction. The volume of applause measured the enthusiasm which greeted her two performances."
Gunn Praises
Kindler Directs
Another musical critic, Ray C. B. Brown, stated, "Miss Swarthout handled the technical difficulties in the piano parts of both works with ease and assurance. Her skill, coupled with her engaging personality and her command of tonal beauty amid the rush of notes, won her a thoroughly merited ovation." Kindler Directs
Glen Dillard Gunn, music critic of the Washington Post, wrote, "Evelyn Swarthout interpreted the solo part in this brilliant number (a Diverimento by Ulric Cole) accomplishing a display of exceptional pianistic facility and musical authority."
In the concert directed by Dr. Hans Kindler, conductor of the National Symphony, Miss Swarthout, who in married life is Mrs. James P. Hayes, played the solo part of "Variations on a French Mountain Theme" (Vincent d'Indy) and "Diverimento" (Ulric Cole).

Mid-Winter Jayhawker Features Males
It's about men—the mid-winter issue of the Jayhawker. That bewildered looking man pictured on the cover seems to be indicative of the perplexity of Mt. Oread masculinity.

Stan Kreider establishes his journalistic versatility in this issue with the factual outline and history of the School of Religion and the highly imaginative "The Arabian Nights in a Barroom."
Introduces Basketball Stars
"The Iron Five" have been a lot in the headlines lately, and in the mid-winter issue of the Jayhawker, they are given special consideration by J. Donald Keown, former Kansan sports editor. With a bevy of descriptive adjectives and phrases, Keown introduces the five and reviews the games played this season.
Paul Brownlee gives the intramural situation the 'once over' in his article called "Sweat-For Fun and Trophies." Besides naming the winning teams and outstanding players in basketball, he looks forward to spring sports and suggests some of the possibilities.
Women come in for a bit of attention in Jill Peck's article, "Women's Intramurals, Half - Time." Basketball also topped the women's sports interests with ping pong, a secondary interest. Gives Low down on "Hello" Girl.

Kansas To End Season With K-State
Buescher Stars As Creighton Defeats Kansas
Only the brilliant play of veteran quarterback John Buescher kept Kansas from being completely routed by Creighton last night in Omaha as the Jayhawkers went down to defeat 56 to 34.
Buescher, the only regular remaining on the squad, tallied 15 points to tie with Creighton's Ralph Langer for high scoring honors.
"Phog" Allen's Big Six champions, playing without the services of four regulars, rallied to score a field goal in the first eleven minutes of the game. However, the reserve Allen-men couldn't be kept down forever. They managed to chalk up 14 points before the half-time gun went off. Buescher was responsible for 7 of those 14 points. At the half-time Creighton led 29 to 14 with Langer and Beisser each scoring 11 points for the Blue Jays.
Langer and Beisser Leave Game
Ralph Langer, forward, and Ed Beisser, center, playing their last college game for Creighton prior to the Madison Square Garden invitation tournament, left the game on fouls in the second half. None of the Kansas players were sent from the game because of too many fouls. The game ended with Creighton victorious 56 to 34.
The game had been billed as a natural until the army took its toll of the Kansas squad. It was played as a "token visit" by the Jayhawkers because of huge advance ticket sales and because, as Creighton Coach Hickey said, "The fans deserve it."

While in Omaha for the game with Creighton, Coach "Phog" Allen dropped in for a friendly yet frank visit with Col. Raymond Briggs of the Seventh Service Command.

BLACK COULD HAVE PLAYED
When the conversation drifted around to the squabble over the eligibility of Charlie Black, "Phog" told the Colonel that he felt like playing Charlie against Oklahoma without asking for his consent. Colonel Briggs jumped out of his chair and said "That's what you ought to have done. I wouldn't have done anything about it." It develops that outside pressure was the main cause for Brigg's refusing to let Charlie play. If "Phog" had kept him about playing Charlie in the game, there wouldn't have any argument.
Furthermore, Allen discovered that, if University officials would have asked for a deferment for members of the basketball team until the end of the season, the army would have been glad to cooperate.

Kansas is the only powerhouse basketball team in the jurisdiction of the Seventh Service Command which lost regular players to the army after the basketball season was opened.

Schnellbacher, Evans, To Play In Final Game
The University of Kansas basketball team will attempt to close its Big Six basketball season with a clean slate by defeating Kansas State tomorrow night when the two teams meet in their last game of the season at 7:30 o'clock in Hoch auditorium.
Ray Evans, Don Blair, Hoyt Baker, Bill Brill, and George Dick all have received permission from army officials at the Reception Center at Fort Leavenworth to play in the game tomorrow night if they wish to do so. Coach "Phog" Allen has made preparations to take the boys over to Fort Leavenworth immediately after the game so that they will arrive at the Reception Center before midnight.
The probable Jayhawker line-up for the game, as announced today by Coach Allen, is as follows: John Buescher, center; Ray Evans, guard; "Sparky" McSpadden, guard; Max Kissell, forward; and Otto Schnellbacher, forward. Schnellbacher doesn't have to report to the army until Tuesday and will play if he arrives in Lawrence from Sublette by game time.
The Kansas State squad will arrive in Lawrence tomorrow afternoon and will be taken to the Union building which will be their headquarters while in town. They will leave immediately after the game for Manhattan.
If the Jayhawkers come out victorious in this final game, and thus have a perfect Big Six record, it will be the third season in which Allen-men have won conference titles with a clean slate. Back in 1923, when Kansas was in the old Missouri Valley Conference, "Phog's" team won 16 games without a loss. The 1936 team, which Allen often refers to as his best all-time team, went through Big Six conference play undefeated.

Classes Speed Up For Meteorology
A course in analytic geometry was completed Monday to prepare 10 students for a meteorology course in connection with a government training program, Dean E. B. Stouffer of the Graduate School and professor of mathematics, announced yesterday.
From the request of the students themselves, Dean Stouffer agreed to teach the course in two and a half hours daily for three weeks. By com-
Ten students were enrolled in analytic geometry when Robert W. Webb, of the University of California, came to the University to recruit students for this government course. They dropped all other courses to concentrate on analytic geometry, lessening their training period six months.
From the request of the stu agreed to teach the course in three or four weeks. By completing the course before March 15, they were allowed to enroll in the meteorology course, which requires only 14 months instead of 20.
The government course is associated with aviation training, and is divided into three sections. Section A is for those students who have had calculus and physics, and requires eight months further training; section B is for those with credit in analytic geometry, and requires 14 months; and section C is for any student without college mathematics and calls for 20 months training.
Concentrate on Geometry
Seven of the students have been accepted already, and Dean Stouffer feels certain that the others will be. Delay has been caused probably because two who have not been accepted are in the reserve corps, and the other was late in applying, he said.
Has Testing Program
Another way in which the mathematics department helps to place its students is in the testing program at the first of every semester. Every student enrolling in the first course of college algebra is given a test in arithmetic and algebra.
If he dose exceptionally well in the test, his professor will check up his high school record and his psychological test score, and he may be
executed from taking algebra. If he does poorly, a transfer to the 5 hour course in algebra for three hours credit is suggested.
A special examination is offered to engineering students in algebra and trigonometry. If they pass it satisfactorily, they may be excused from both courses and be allowed to continue with analytic geometry.
For those who need help in the department, room 215 is open from 3:30 to 5:30 every afternoon through the semester. A regular faculty member and advanced or graduate students are on hand to direct students having difficulty.
Special Examination
Students who have been helping in this room this year are Arthur Benner, Ralph Dagenais, and Robert Harrison, all engineering juniors; Bertha Cummins, College sophomore; Judson Goodrich, College junior; and Clarence Beck, engineering senior.

To make use of these methods developed by Dr. Samuel Renshaw, the navy has established at Ohio State a "recognition school" to serve all branches of the armed services and all of the United Nations.
Columbus, Ohio, (ACP)—Methods of teaching visual perception developed by an Ohio State University professor of psychology are expected here to be the margin between victory and defeat in many an aerial dog-fight before the war is ended. They may also turn the tide in engagements among surface craft as well, military men declare.

New Visual Aid Helpful In War
Methods used in the school, the only one of its kind in the world, are a military secret. They are designed to train for a speedier recognition of approaching craft, either air or surface.
ENNEY CO. ORDATE
In their original conception, the methods were intended for use in peacetime teaching, not warfare. Several years ago Professor Renshaw became interested in so-called "mental wizards." He brought several of them to his laboratory and subjected them to weeks of examination and experimentation, to determine the secret of their powers.
New Methods
Out of this research came methods by which Professor Renshaw was able to develop in many of his own students the abilities ordinarily attributed in a mysterious way to "mental wizards" and "photographic minds."
Then came Pearl Harbor, and Dr. Renshaw saw in his methods the possibility of a major contribution to the war effort. Adaptations to
Ann Arbor, Mich. —(ACP)—Colleges face the prospect of an enormous increase in enrollments after the-war, according to Dr. Warren R. Good of the University of Michigan school of education.
Enrollment Increase Expected After War
"The federal government is already planning to subsidize the further education of men in service after the war, as it did after the first World war," Dr. Good asserts in an article appearing in the School of Education Bulletin. This means that hundreds of thousands of young men will be fed into the colleges every year for several years, Dr. Good says, and the rise in enrollments will be further accentuated by the greater prosperity of millions of workers who will have the means, as well as the ambition, to send their children to college.
"It is a crucial necessity, therefore, that the higher institutions now maintain the personnel and facilities they have as a nucleus for meeting the impending expansion," Dr. Good says. "They need, furthermore, to locate sites and make plans for inevitable plant expansion.
Dr. Good warns that the colleges are at present in no condition to meet this prospective boom either with adequate facilities for classwork, organizational demands and student housing, or with the needed faculty members and other personnel.
Topека, (INS) - County commissioners would be allowed to issue bonds and rebuild essential bridges during the war when all highway revenues are being curtailed, under a bill approved for passage today by the house ways and means committee.
The work met with the approval of the navy department, which has now entered into a contract with the University's research foundation to train larger groups on a permanent basis.
the military needs were made, and several small groups of naval officers came here on an experimental basis.
Killed by the same committee, however, was the bill to increase the gasoline tax one cent per gallon during the emergency.
Committee Votes For Bridge Bill
The house spent most of the morning disposing of the ways and means committee appropriation bills. The senate continued debate on the measure placing labor unions under strict state regulations.
The bill, which would place the hotels in the same class as railroads and gas companies, was referred to the public utilities committee, and for a while, was slated to be buried. The committee, however put the measure back in the house calendar.
The bills classifying Kansas' larger hotels as public utilities and placing them under the supervision of the state corporations commission was rescued from death today.
Jack Ballard, Lee Sanks, George Strunk, and James Scanlan, who are members of the AERC, but because of a clerical error did not receive their orders at the same time the other did, will report in Leavenworth March 11.

Kansas Has Impressive Record To Back Request For A Battleship Namesake
Kansas, the state that led the nation in the per capita collection of scrap metal, and a state that is doing as much as any other in producing war materials, has earned the right to have a battleship named after her. The next of these giant warships to slide down the ways should be the "U.S.S. Kansas."
Every section of the country is represented on the roll of battleships now in service, yet the central United States is not truly recognized. The Oklahoma now lies on her side in Pearl Harbor; the South Dakota is named after a northern state; the Colorado is named after a western state; the Iowa, is now the nearest to representing the central U.S. No state in the nation could replace Kansas as representative of the great Central plains.
Kansas aircraft factories are making an enormous number of planes for the war effort, ranging from small single-motor training planes to four-motor bombers. Airbases are springing up over Kansas almost overnight. The government recognizes the value of our geographical location as providing a great deal of protection from possible enemy bombings, and Kansas has become the home of a great many war plants other than our airplane industry, which even in peacetime had a vast output.
Kansas has some of the largest and most important army posts in the nation, and the Gardner Air Base is rapidly developing into one of the key training bases of the Naval Air Corps. Kansas youths have enlisted by the thousands for service in the United States Navy, not to mention the manpower the Sunflower state is pouring into the army and into defense factories.
Ft. Riley has long been recognized as the biggest cavalry post in the country, and today it is one of the largest army posts in the middle west. Camp Phillips, near Salina, Kansas, is a steadily growing army base, and Ft. Leavenworth, with its Command and General Staff School, has been a permanent army camp for years.
It takes oil to run a battleship, and Kansas is one of the nation's leaders in the production of oil and gas; it takes food to feed a battleship's personnel, and Kansas is one of the nation's leaders in the production of food; it takes metal to build a battleship, and Kansas led the nation in the scrap metal drive; it takes men to run a battleship, and thousands of Kansas boys are in the navy, and hundreds of future sailors are receiving Machinist's Mates training on this campus. The powder to fire the guns, and the shells to blast the axis are being made in Kansas. A record like this certainly entitles Kansas to have her name on a battleship.
Working Students Should Be Allowed Income Tax Reductions
With a large percentage of college students in this country partially or wholly self-supporting (at K.U. for example, nearly 50 percent of the students are) there should be some definite provision in the income tax laws whereby money spent for college fees and text books would not be subject to the income tax.
When the average working college student
Just Wondering
If the KU whistle shouldn't be tuned up a little so that profs, wouldn't have so much trouble hearing it at the end of the hour.
--begins filling out his income tax blank, he probably will discover that he knows very little about the procedure. Besides, if he manages to struggle through the blank without an error, if that's possible for anyone, he will probably find out that he will either have to borrow money to pay his income tax, or else pay his income tax with his savings and borrow some money to pay this semester's expenses.
But if he fails to get the income tax blank filled out, it will probably be due to a lack of knowledge on the amount and number of his deductions. Even many lawyers are puzzled when asked if money paid out for college fees and books are legitimate deductible expenses of the (student) profession.
One University student recently wrote to the Collector of Internal Revenue at Wichita and asked for advice on the status of his college expenses as far as the income tax laws are concerned. Mr. Collector promptly replied that ALL college expenses are personal expenses and therefore are not deductible—M. H.
The Bands Get Together
Last week the University concert band admitted to membership the 50 members of the recently organized All-Girl band. The purpose of this merger was to bring up the concert band to its pre-war membership to continue with complete instrumentation of the organization.
The two organizations will each keep their own staff of officers with the intention of returning to separate bands after the war. Even though the girls' band has not had as much practice together as the concert band, the standards are not being lowered more than has been made necessary by the war.

Dear Mabel:
I got the last letter you sent a week ago but have been too busy to write. There's hardly a man left on the campus.
I can't tell you how sad it makes me, seeing all the men leaving. You know me, Mabel. I've seen 'em come and I've seen 'em go, but now they're all going. Something will have to be done.
I've been dreadfully busy, and am I tired tonight! All day I've spent chasing a man in the naval reserve, and he didn't even wink his eye. There he walked, as carefree as any bird, with two girls on one arm and two girls on the other. See how it is, Mabel?
Where you are, of course, there isn't the competition. I wish I was working in that factory with you. Imagine, men in those beautiful overalls, instead of dirty old cords. And most of all, men.
But you know me, Mabel. Education I place above everything else. I'm studying for midsemester quizzes now, but I'll have to quit soon, as the show starts at seven. I'm going with some of the girls. Sometimes (continued to see some)

Launching 63,000 Telephone calls
IT has been estimated that 63,000 telephone calls are necessary in the building of one 10,000-ton cargo ship. And America is sending these vessels down the ways by the hundreds.
We cannot build additional facilities because materials for telephone equipment are going into war weapons. Yet today the men and women of the Bell System are handling more telephone calls than ever before一about 90 million conversations a day. It's an important wartime job. It will continue to be done well.

Picnics More Fun Now Nothing to Eat
Picnics this spring will not compare with the outdoor lunches of former years.

You could dash to the car—you used your car for such purposes then—and sped down town to a grocery store. It was possible to fill a basket with hot dogs, steaks, rolls, catsup, mustard, olives, pickles, potato chips, pork and beans, fruits and marshmellows without thinking of such words as rationing, points, scarcity, or priorities.

Plenty of Films Then
Some one always took along his camera. One roll of film wasn't enough. "Just eight pictures? I might as well make this worth while and take at least two rolls," he would say.
Drinks were taken for granted then. If nothing else, and usually there was something else, a carton of cokes would do for a substitute. The word 'substitute' was not used frequently. It wasn't necessary. One could usually buy the article or commodity he wanted.
The location for the steak fry, wiener roast, or beer bust was unlimited. Distance or transportation was no object. Everyone rode in cars and usually went to Brown's grove, Tonganoxie lake, or some wooded and secluded spot at least 15 miles out of town. You could start out late in the evening and make a night of it.
All A Thing of the Past
Such luxury and convenience are things of the past. Now is the time to plan a picnic. With the weather giving you a sunburn one day and a chill blain the next, you have time to make the necessary preparations.

down town; you go to town under your own power. More than just a few minutes will be necessary to push your way through the shoppers in the store, wait at the meat counter, purchase a couple of wieners or slices of lunch meat—if you are lucky—pass up the catups, that's on the ration list now, and select an orange or apple apiece.
You don't buy marshmellows. And usually you don't buy films. You can't find them. Just hoping, but knowing it's useless, you canvass every drug store or likely store that might possibly have a roll of film. If you find a roll, it won't fit in your camera.
To Make Picture
Milk or water take the place of cokes or something else. Feet take the place of cars. Having to carry lunch, yourself, blanket—you can still take blankets—you chose a spot close to town. Seclusion and privacy are things of the past, because other people aren't going to walk any farther than you are.

Business Jobs Open To Trained Women
"Shortages today in well-trained accountants, statisticians, and secretaries are fully as great as shortages in engineering and other fields," Dean F. T. Stockton of the School of Business declared today.
A marked demand had developed in government offices for capable accountants, statisticians, and economic analysts, Dean
Stockton explained, and there are many positions for which women are suitable.
The work of governmental departments calls for statistical analysts as well as general economic analysts, and in the industrial field women accountants are very scarce. In fact, for the first time in this area women are being given positions as public accountants, the Dean disclosed.
Many Letters
The gravity of the situation is indicated by the great number of letters received from military sources asking for the names of persons with "any sort of training in accounting." Dean Stockton said.
Also an indication of the need for people capable of carrying on office duties may be drawn from the fact that one war industry in this area plans to maintain an office staff of 6,000 persons including file clerks, stenographers, and planning departments.
Demand Is Strain
The constant demand in personnel and employment offices as well as in war industries for persons trained in personnel counseling, secretarial work, and record and report work has placed an added strain on facilities for supplying workers in these fields, and the organization of an army air corps statistical office operating with the flying forces at the front brings constant calls for persons with knowledge of accounting and purchasing and of the economic systems of foreign countries.
Whenever possible the demand will be satisfied through the training of more women, Dean Stockton predicts. At the same time, if the war continues means must be found to maintain the training of men for military industrial jobs demanding more than superficial knowledge in the business field, Dean Stockton said.
Engineering Program Offered for Women At Illinois College
Chicago, Ill., (ACP)—A "war engineering education for women" program, to give women an opportunity to train for engineering positions, a program believed to be the first of its kind in the nation, has been introduced at Illinois Institute of Technology, Pres. Henry T. Heald announces.
Sandelius Speaks
The women will go to school full time, about 40 hours a week, because of the urgent demand for engineers. Courses will be offered in "blocks," each complete in itself, so that at the end of each of three units the women enrolled will be prepared to take an engineering post, but, by continuing their studies, be able to study for a more advanced position.
Prof W. E. Sandelius gave a talk Wednesday evening before the Business and Professional Women's Club at the Colonial tea room. His subject was "The International Situation."
Students Compete For Summerfields
Preliminary examinations for Summerfield scholarships will be given in 12 towns throughout the state on March 13, it was announced today by the Endowment Association office.
Approximately 200 top-ranking high school seniors will compete for the scholarships, which were established at the University by Solon E. Summerfield, New York manufacturer. Men placing in the top thirty in the preliminary examination will come to Lawrence for the finals, which will be given April 12 and 13. Usually ten to fifteen scholarships are awarded to incoming freshmen.
This scholarship, which places about $20,000 annually in the hands of University students, was established to give high school students who are unable to support themselves financially a chance at a university education. They are awarded altogether on a competitive basis, and the amount of the scholarship varies as to the need of the student.
Towns in which these examinations will be given are Blue Rapids, Colby, Concordia, Emporia, Garden City, Great Bend, Hutchinson, Lawrence, Norton, Parsons, Salina, and Wichita.
Carl Everett Reece Sentenced to Prison
Kansas City, Kan., (INS) — Carl Everett Reece, 42, former president of the Exchange Bank of Parsons was sentenced to three years in prison for irregularities in the operation of the institution.
He was charged in 12 indictments of making false entries in the bank'sentries and of conspiracy.
William Adelbert Smith, former assistant cashier, and Harrie Judd Cloonan, received three years suspended sentences in the same case.
University Staff Gives Opinions On Pay Changes
Stressing the inconvenience (and embarrassment) resulting from the legislation coming at this time, most of those questioned pointed out the imminence of income tax payments, and the necessity of stretching a month's pay over an extra two weeks.
Smiling, when asked their reaction to the changing of the date of issuing checks from the first to the fifteenth of the month, members of the staff of the University gave varying replies in a poll made today.
Some Do Not Mind
Several stated that they didn't mind the change and could make the necessary readjustments easily. The ones who protest the change, however, have these additional arguments that obligations fall due on the 10th of each month, and no warning was offered to allow time for preparation for the situation.
No may Ski Weeks
One employee disclosed an unusual case by the statement that since she was employed on the first, she will receive no check for a month and a half.
No pay for Six Weeks
In several cases, borrowing was thought to be necessary to meet obligations which could otherwise have been taken care of by salary checks received on the first of the month.
The question (as yet unanswered) asked by staff members finding themselves in a distressing position, was whether there had been investigation by the legislature concerning possible inconvenience caused by the measure.
Former Kansas Student An Air Corps Cadet
Maxwell Field, Ala.-Alvin Bernard Beck, Brooklyn, N. Y., who attended the University of Kansas, is now enrolled as a student officer in the Army Air Forces Pre-Flight School (Pilot) at Maxwell Field, located on the outskirts of Montgomery, the capital of Alabama.
Cadet Beck was a student in 1940-41 and had eight months active service in the U. S. Army before he was accepted as an aviation cadet in the Army Air Forces, January 2, 1943, at Mitchell Field, N. Y.

BUEHLER ELECTED----
(continued from page one) Isles for a series of contests. Fred Anderson, a student of Professor Buehler's, was chosen to make the trip and was paired with a student by the name of Bell from the University of Texas. The jaunt brought substantial recognition to both Kansas and Texas in the forensics field. In addition to Delta Sigma Rho, Buehler is an honorary member of Pi Kappa Delta and Tau Kappa Alpha, also honorary forensics fraternities. His latest venture is the establishment of the Victory Speakers Bureau, through which he is sending students in the speech department over the state to deliver addresses on various topics pertinent to current war interest. The venture is proving extremely popular as evidenced by the large demand for the speakers to appear before civic and service clubs and school organizations from all over Kansas.

Jakosky Reveals New Army, Navy Engineer's Plan
Bringing with him plans for the new army and navy engineering programs and a favorable report on governmental priorities for plastics and engineering equipment, Dean J. J. Jakosky, head of the School of Engineering and Architecture, returned to the University Friday after a three weeks leave of absence.
A meeting with the American Institute of Mining Engineers in New York City to discuss problems of engineering education and the war effort brought about a correlation of engineering work and the new army and navy programs, Dean Jakosky explained
Governmental plans for men in the Army Engineering Reserve Corps are that at a term beginning the closest to March 15—the time at this school has not been definitely set—the men will be sent to an indoctrination center for a period of 13 weeks. If they do satisfactory work there, they will be returned to the University for more training.
Their training here will be in 12 week periods and their stay in school will depend upon their grades. Any man not doing satisfactory work at the end of the first period will go into the army. If he is recommended, however, the engineering student will continue with the 12 week study periods until the army feels he is ready for the work it wants him for. At the end of any 12 week period a man may be dropped out.
The navy program, however, allows the engineers to finish their schooling as they have planned, if they keep their grades up. Beginning at the same time as the army program, the term nearest March 15, the men in the Naval reserve will continue their work here in 16 week periods. Satisfactory work will allow them to finish their course, but a cheek will be made at the end of each 16 weeks. When these men finish their engineering course, they will be sent to a governmental indoctrination center.
AERC Defers Meteorologists
Students that were members of the AERC but later enrolled in the meteorologist course offered by the University received the cancellation of their AERC orders yesterday.

This program is open to high school seniors between 17 and 20 and to high school graduates and enlisted men in the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard.

Jayhawk Cagers Tame Wildcats
One of the greatest Jayhawk cage teams ever to trod a Kansas court last night swept an outclassed Kansas State team from Hoch auditorium by a 47 to 30 score. Led by newly elected captain John Buescher, who tallied 21 points and played an aggressive floor game, the victors were never in trouble after
Selective service boards recently were authorized by the War Manspower Commission in Washington to give continued deferments to all engineering students who can complete their work by June, 1945. According to Dean J. J. Jakosky this will include all sophomores.

Commemorating the birthday of their patron St. Patrick, engineers will have their annual Hob Nail Hop March 20 in Hoch auditorium. All University students are invited to dance to the music of Pope and Bachmann's band said Frank Lichty, president of the Engineer's Council.
Enlistees, upon passing the physical examination and having the recommendation for ing the recommendation for flight training, may be inducted and sent into the new fifteen and one-half month college training program. College graduates or college men with adequate credit who apply for induction may be sent on to pre-fight training without completing the pre-aviation cadet college training.

Little Joe Ridgeway, diminutive Wildcat forward, kept the men from Manhattan in the game during the opening minutes of the game, and midway in the first period the score was tied 10-all. Buescher and junior Max Kissell, who turned in a fine performance, began to find the basket at that piont, however, and at halftime the Jayhawks led 20 to 13.

Second half play was slowed up by close officiating, and four men left the game on fouls. Undaunted, however, Buescher continued his scoring activities and the Kansans slowly drew away to establish a new Big Six record on point advantage over opponents over the season, and to win their tenth straight Big Six conference game. Thus, the Kansans became the third team in conference history to finish the season undefeated.

Allen Has Made Basketball Famous Now He Must Fight To Save It
Wherever the game of basketball is played you will find the University of Kansas known for this school more than any other can claim the title of birthplace of America's greatest sport. To two men—Dr. James Naismith and Dr. Forrest C. Allen—can be attributed the success of the game both here and throughout the sports-loving world.
Naismith was the inventor of the game—but it was his friend, Dr. Allen, who gave the game its polish and appeal to youth. Under him the game grew from a minor sport, overshadowed by football and baseball, to a place in the sports sun where annually it attracts more spectators than either of the other two of the nation's popular games. Other schools looked to Kansas to set the pace in the development of the sport, and set the pace Allen did.
Development of the game has not ceased, although today Allen is only one of the many leaders in the game. Frankly, he is worried about this continued advancement, for the doctor fears that this progress—if it is progress—has taken a turn toward professionalism.
Now, "Phog" will tell you he has nothing against professionalism, but the truth is that underneath he has that same abhorrence of sports for pay's sake that most men who grew up with a game possess. They have lived too close to their sport to wish to see it tainted with money. To them the health-giving possibilities of the game give a worth far greater than that of the common business venture. They fear that professionalism will tend in the long run to subordinate the worthier characteristics of the games--that the aim will tend to become one of giving the public what it wants, not the youthful participant what he needs.
We have seen many sports go that way in recent years. Certainly wrestling on a large scale is no matter of exercise for health's sake. So it is with other sports which have landed in the hands of large-scale promoters. Dr. Allen and others have seen a decided tendency for football to join in this movement toward professionalism in recent years and have deplored that tendency.
Amateur athletics, by their very success are an attraction to professional promoters who see profits in that success. It would seem that the only choices in the colleges of the country are the suspension of large scale sports, or their continuance on a professional or semiprofessional basis. Dr. Allen, however, is not one to give up so easily. A diehard, he believes that University athletics may yet be rescued for the student participant. Certainly, if he is successful, he will have won a hard uphill fight for a good cause.-J.D.K.
O-
With 96 per cent of all food now under rationing beside all the other rationed items, and the possibility of clothes rationing, there may soon be more man-power hours involved in rationing than there will be in war production.
Congress has been complaining bitterly because only dummy guns and dummy soldiers have been placed over their heads to protect them from enemy air attacks. Still, scarecrows have been known to protect corn.
Just Wondering
Why the University doesn't provide adequate lighting facilities for students in the library.
University Employment Situation
Ever since the first of the year the office of the Dean of Women has been urging women students to register for employment outside of school. The system as it now stands is that the student turns in her class schedule and the kind of work she would prefer. The University offices and departments turn in their requirements and receive the names of the applicants whom they call for appointments.
To eliminate this round-about method, it might be well to have a list of possible jobs available either in Miss Meguiar's office or on a bulletin board and let the students apply for the one they feel they are best qualified to fill.

Rock Chalk Talk BY JIMMY GUNN
By MARY MORRILL, Sunday Columnist
Mixing the Minks: Ruth Sheppard was one of the first out of Miller hall when things got hot around the anatomy building. She grabbed a coat in the front hall and ran. Halfway over someone took a good look a her and exclaimed, "Anybody'd know we had the Chancellor's daughter over to dinner tonight. You've got her coat on." Ruth was a little late to the fire.
---
Proving there's money in everything: Jean and Jane Scott, Watkins hall twins, drove their car back to school from Garnett last weekend. They can't drive around the hill (no gas), but business women a heart and desirous of seeing their machine do some good, they have started renting it out in its parked condition. Customers usually appear in pairs. Business is good.
Burns may have considered them poetic, BUT: Barrett VanDyke, Sigma Nu and an earnest student of Insects and Public Health, has been raising a bed bug in a glass jar. The other night he took the lid off in his room to make some scientific observations and the beastie crawled out. To the horror of all, namely Barrett and roommates, Don Chadsey and Jack Jarvis, it disappeared rapidly under the rug. As yet the boys have had no indication that the bug is still perambulating, but Barrett says it wasn't scheduled to eat again until Monday, anyway. The doomed ones are now trying to decide between two equally odious alternatives—bed bug or sleeping porch.
Right spot, wrong sport: Under the tutelage of Bob Humphries, one time winner of Golden Gloves title, Harlan Cope has been trying to learn to box. The other night he was waving his arms around frantically in a shadow engagement when someone remarked, "That's OK, Cope. With Kuesteiner getting called to the army and all there may be a place for you yet." Harlan thinks maybe he isn't doing so well.
*****
Let this be a comfort to Hill morons: Ralph May (grade average 2.95) worked three hours daily in his improvised hydraulic lab at the Theta Tau house. The other night he emerged clutching a fat wad of papers, "Well fellows," he exclaimed with a deep breath, "I've done it. My figures prove conclusively that water runs down hill."
- * * *
In 25 words or less: The recently conducted "Random Harvest" contest proved that a variety of motives will impell movie-bound students during the following week. Reasons for wanting to see the show which were submitted ranged all the way from "because they say its slightly on the shady side. Lemme to it!" (by the editor of a prominent Hill publication) to an aesthetic: "Warm and human drama is needed to divert the mind of the harassed American. Random Harvest is warm and human."

★ Letters to the Editor
★
To The Editor:
Women, wake up and dig in! This University is bound to be without many men in a few weeks, at least by the end of this semester. The rumor is now that the Navy reserve may be called at any time. If this rumor is true, women will definitely dominate this campus.
The women must carry on. The University can and will be lifeless and inactive, in other words, dull, unless the women can take over and keep things moving.
Baloney. If you women are planning to remain in school, you've got to do more than sit back and watch this University decay from lack of life. It's up to you to keep K.U. on top. Don't be afraid to take on responsibilities and essential positions left by men. Don't just attend class, but begin to increase your activities. In addition to helping the school, you'll be less lonely, less likely to feel sorry for yourself. Do your part in the war by keeping the school running for the boys who plan to return.
It won't be easy. The feminine population of the campus has been enjoying the social and academic extracurricular activities which were planned by the men. The women have done little or nothing. With the exception of a few, the women still sit at home wailing about their lonely evenings and lack of dates.

States Votes To Support KU Academy
Topeka, (INS) — Both houses of
Kansas legislature were in sesion
today still striving to get all
unstanding business cleaned up for
journment before March 20.
The House Ways and Means committee brought out its big executive and judicial department bills. One of the measures carried an appropriation of $600 a year for the Academy of Science sponsored by the university of Kansas.
abor Bill Passed Senate
The bill placing labor unions under strict state supervision cleared one hurdle in passing the Senate a vote of 29 to 60. It may be more man a week yet before the House lets the measure on its floor for debate.
As the bill now stands, sit-down strikes would be prohibited and labor union leaders would forfeit salaries, collections and expense accounts and also make an accounting of their various activities.
ARMY AIR CORPS--for eight and one-half months they will receive advanced academic subjects and advanced flying training.
(continued from page one) even include modern history, English, geography, mathematics through trigonometry, and an extensive course in physics. Following the college training, successful cadet candidates will be classified for instruction as pilots, navigators, and bombardiers. Then

All Big Six Cage Quintet Selected
2
Jayhawk jabberwock
RIDDLE OF THE SOONERS
Seldom in recent years has a team so completely dominated conference competition throughout the season as this year's Jayhawk quintet. Only Oklahoma could at any time during the season muster talent at all comparable to that which Phog Allen had at hand.
The case of the Sooners is a somewhat mystifying one, since the men from Norman seemed to have everybody but Louisetti at the start of the season. Dissension, however, probably played a large part in the failure of Drake's charges to produce. Tension was noticeable on the Sooner bench during the recent game here.
Prima donnas of the Tucker, Roberts type may have proven extremely costly to the Sooner cause, although according to all outside reports the Great Gerald is extremely popular with his mates. Something, however, was undeniably wrong internally with the talented Oklahomans, and as a result they finished with not the expected one, but three losses in conference competition.
★ ★ ★ ★
MORE HONORS FOR EVANS
Tucker and the Jayhawk's Ray Evans were the only unanimous choices on the Iowa State's all-opponent conference squad. Other first string members were Allie Paine, Thornton Jenkins, and John Buescher.
Charlie Black, Kansas forward, naturally received no consideration as he was absent from the Kansas lineup both times when the Jayhawks faced the Cyclones.
Only two other conference men besides the selected five received two or more votes. They were Oklahoma's Bob McCurdy and Phog Allen's sophomore sensation, Otto Schnellbacher. Schnelly can be expected, if he again takes up varsity competition following the war, to make a name for himself as one of the greatest Kansas cagers of all time.

Red Cross Drive Falls Short of Goal
Dr. Allen, University chairman, expressed the belief that late contributions would raise the total.
The Red Cross membership and war fund campaign ended officially last night with the University total reaching only half of the expected amount. Ruth Kelley, chairman of the student collection group, reported. Nearly $600 was collected from the students last week by members of Dr. F. C. Allen's community recreation class and Jay Janes.
Friday afternoon members of the class collected $62 from the sailors. Later the girls learned that the sailors had already contributed once in their own platoons. The faculty and employees gave over $900, which raises the University total to nearly $1500.

3 Kansans Win Places On Squad
By DON KEOWN Sports Editor
Kansas, easily dominant in Big Six competition this year, also dominated the Kansas's 1943 all-conference basketball squad, winning three of the five available positions. The other two first string posts went to Oklahoma Sooners.
Jayhawkers selected were John Buescher, ace ball-handler; Charles Black, the team's high-scorer and top rebounder; and Ray Evans, one of the greatest defensive guards ever to perform in the Big Six. Gerald "Titanic" Tucker and Allie Paine of Oklahoma rounded out the first string.
Black, despite being out most of the season with illness, stole the opening acts of the conference show with his scoring exploits, climaxed by a 33 point display against Missouri. Far greater than his scoring ability, however, was his talent for rebounding at which the tall junior excelled anything seen in the Big Six area in recent years. His tallness also made the agile Black a definite defensive asset.
Key To Attack
Buescher, formerly an all-state cager at Beardstown, Ill., where basketball is second to nothing, has in three years of competition with the Jayhawks earned a reputation as one of the smoothest, coolest quarterbacks ever to direct an Allenattack. When Black was absent from the Jayhawk lineup, Buescher stepped up to take up the scoring slack, hitting the basket consistently from weird angles which left the opposition frequently bewildered. There were many who considered Buescher, above all other Jay Hawkers, to be the key to the effective Kansas attack.
Evans was a tireless workhorse type of guard, who nightly drew the assignment to dog the enemy's scoring ace, and who unfailingly turned in a job that was nothing short of brilliant. The hardest passer in Big Six circles, Evans could also drive in for setups when the occasion demanded it, and frequently controlled the rebounds against far

taller opposition. Coach Allen was throughout the year enthusiastic in his praise of Evans' characteristic fighting spirit.
No conference team could leave off Oklahoma's Tucker. The tall Sooner turned in an amazing performance when he pushed in 38 points recently against Nebraska to climax a season of sensational court exploits. He was the key to a Sooner squad which alone threatened Jayhawk supremacy, and was especially dangerous under the basket where he rebounded superbly, and frequently counted on tipins.
Bill To Reduce Voting Age
McCurdy Outdone
Of all the guards in the Big Six conference, Allie Paine alone could be placed in the same class with Evans. Paine, one of the smaller men on the Oklahoma team, turned in consistently fine performances. He was also one of the conference's top scorers, being a deadshot from far out. Paine this year overshadowed his famous teammate, Bob McCurdy, both as a defensive and an offensive man.
Second team nods went to two sensational sophomores — Otto Schnellbacher of Kansas and Thornton Jenkins of Missouri; to Marlo Dirks, lanky pivot man of the Kansas State squad; to Bob McCurd of the Sooners; and to guard Bob Heinzelman of the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
Jefferson City, Mo., (INS)—The legal voting age in Missouri would be reduced from 21 years to 18 under a bill before the house of representatives yesterday. The measure was introduced by Rep. Fred Norden (R) of Butler county.

Welles Discredits Criticism of Russia
Washington. (INS)—Acting Secretary of State Sumner Welles today announced that the statements made by American ambassador William H. Stanley in Moscow, criticizing the Soviet government for failure to show greater appreciation of American lend-lease aid, were made without prior consultation with or reference to the American state department.

Allies Expect Fall of Nazi Rail Center
Boeing Flying Fortresses and Lockheed Lightnings streaming out over the Mediterranean on bombing and reconnaissance missions ran into two separate squadrons of German planes. Not a single American plane was lost in either engagement, which took place between Tunisia and Sicily some 10 miles north of Cap Pen.
Early German surrender of Vyazma, a highly important rail center whose possession by the Nazis has constantly endangered Moscow, appeared inevitable today as United Nations forces scored encouragingly on widespread fronts.
(International News Service)
Masahirle, the Royal Air Force continued its endless pounding of the Nazi Reich. The famous old industrial city of Nuremberg, once of Adolph Hitler's favorite retreats but now just a big cog in the German war machine, was singled out for attack last night.
The continued Soviet gains in Russia had a close parallel in Tunisia where coincident with a further retreat by Marshal Rommel's forces at the Mareth line, the United States army air force recorded a notably victory.
Throughout the day RAF and American bombers and fighters slashed at Occupied France and western Germany.
White developments in the European and African theaters continued to Allied favor, a new note of alarm was sounded in Australia. Highly placed military leaders again issued stern warnings against overoptimism.
Contiues Pounding
Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox, declared flatly that American forces are "stronger than ever" in, the south Pacific while Japanese lines of communication are growing weaker.
The Japanese still have strong garrisons on numerous islands fringing Australia to the north and east, and the menace of an attempted invasion of the huge island continent remains ever present.
Japs Still Strong
These warnings from military sources close to General MacArthur were at variance with announcements in Washington.

Nelson Sees Job Reduction Late This Year
Washington, (INS)—The vast war production program of the United States will reach a peak late this year and will be followed by a slackening of employment, War Production Board Chairman Donald M Nelson told a senate appropriations committee in hearings released yesterday.
"In October, November and December will be the peak of our industrial operations, and then it will level off," Nelson said.
Asked if demands for manpower would decrease, Nelson replied:
"It will not be so great, and, as it levels off, there will be a slackening of employment, because there will be greater efficiency."
He said the WPB is counting upon a steady drop in the number of man hours required to produce airplanes.
"It is one of the things that has to be worked out," he stated. "It can be worked out. The ingenuity of the Americans, the ingenuity of the farmer, the ingenuity of everybody. has to be brought to bear to work out the job.
"Industry generally is improving efficiency in the production of war goods as both management and labor become more familiar with it," he explained.
"We have gone through this thing for a year. I can show you where after you have gone through it with a group of airplane people, they would say, we just can't produce these planes", because they weren't going to have the manpower or they wouldn't have something else—and the same with tanks and the same with guns.
Drop In Plant Production
Admitting that the nation faced a hard problem in manpower, Nelson declined to become excited over the current problem of production of food.
Same Trouble With Planes
"But we just have to use our ingenuity to meet the problems. There are problems and there are difficult problems. Everything we have done for a year in this country has been a difficult problem. It has not been easy."

Army Drafts Pigeons To Carry Messages On Far Battlefronts
Chicago, (INS) — With plenty of billing and cooing, 5,605 swift-flying homing pigeons, the symbols of peace, were off to the wars yesterday, drafted by the army to carry messages in the far-flung battlefronts.
Among the new recruits, the second flock to be drafted by the army from Chicago, are some valued as high as $300 each which have flown 1,000 miles in two days.
Bondfield Expresses Gratitude For Fund Raised For Nursery
J. A. Ruzek, pigeon draft and liaison man between the army and the American Racing Pigeon union, said the birds' destination was a military secret. He declared, however, that pigeons have done a marvelous job in this war, but that the bird death toll was exceptionally high in the Solomons.

Miss Margaret Bondfield, former member of the British cabinet who spoke at the University last month, has expressed her appreciation of the work of the University in establishing the Jayhawk Nursery in a letter to Rev. E. F. Price, dean of the School of Religion.
"It was a great pleasure meeting some of those actively engaged in raising funds for the Jayhawk Nursery which has been such a wonderful haven for the bombed out children from Birmingham." Miss Bondfield writes. "I shall certainly visit the nursery when I return to my country and tell them of my visit to the University."
Believes A Fourth Term Possible. Washington - Senator James M. Mead of New York is convinced that "If the war is on, the American People will draft President Roosevelt for a fourth term."

OCTOBER 1, MARCH 6, 1943
--by Don Keown
Jayhawk Jabberwock
Sam Smith's United Press all-conference team looks very good to this writer, with one glaring exception. That exception is the relegating of John "Thin Man" Buescher to the second string.
Buescher is, in our opinion, not only a first string fixture, but probably was during the season the most valuable man in Big Six basketball circles. We know this is high praise, but think the classy quarterback deserves every word of it.
In Saturday night's Kansas State game Buescher was the whole show, except for spurs by the Aggies' little troublemaker, Joe Ridgeway. At times the Illinois boy seemed to be the only man on the floor, as he came up repeatedly from under the basket with the ball. In short, he stole the show in what would have been an otherwise dull game.
PHOG'S BOYS
Allenphobes—and how many of them there are—are quick to doubt the sincerity of every statement made by talkative Phog, and Phog cooperates with supplying them with plenty of statements. However, when the basketball coach talks about this year's basketball quintet, even the most rabid anti-Allen man can not doubt that this year's crop of athletes has won a special place in Phog's esteem for their season's work.
Always quick to come to the support of his players, Allen is even more lavish in his praises this year for a team which began the season as an underdog to a fine Oklahoma team, and then proceeded to outstrip the Sooners by three full games. Few teams have been more popular with the court mentor than Evans, Buescher, Schnellbacher, McSpadden, and company.
By the way, Allen wants it understood that he would have under no conditions asked for deferments for his charges merely to play basketball, despite a recent statement attributed to Colonel Briggs declaring that in all probability such deferments would have been granted if requested. Sports as usual must go the way of business as usual in wartime, Phog declares.

A TOURNAMENT DARKHORSE
This Wichita Cessna team which Buescher will play with at Denver is no setup for anybody. It includes on its roster two old Missouri Valley favorites, little Dick Smith and Joe Wilhoite. Red Vandiver and Don Platt, center and guard, are both tall men who score frequently. Platt is a former Wichita University great. Schubert, McPherson star, has been added for the tourney, and there is talk that Ralph Miller may perform with the Wichita club at Denver.
Two Kansas cagers—Ray Evans and Otto Schnellbacher—were named on the first team in the annual United Press Big Six conference team recently released by Sam Smith, head of the Kansas City, Mo., bureau of the association.
Jayhawkers Put On UP Conference Team
Other first string members on UP team were Thornton Jenkins of Missouri, and Gerald Tucker and Allie Paine of Oklahoma. Evans was designated as captain by association correspondents of this area who voted for the team members.
Second string members included Black and Buescher of Kansas, Thompson of Nebraska, Stark of Missouri, and McCurdy of Oklahoma.

25 Men Are Working Out For Baseball At Stadium
Dr. Forrest C. Allen, Jayhawk basketball coach, yesterday resisted the temptation to name all five members of the original Iron Five to his conference all-star team, and selected Oklahoma's Gerald Tucker along with four of the Kansans.
Dixon was then named to Allen's second team along with two other Kansans, Harold McSpadden and Max Kissell, and Thornton Jenkins of Missouri and "Ug" Roberts of Oklahoma. Thus Jayhawkers gained seven of Allen's ten positions.
Despite the absence of their coach, Dr. Forrest C. Allen, 25 members of the University baseball team are working out regularly under the stadium from 3:30 to 5:30 o'clock every afternoon.
Allen pointed out that Kansas so completely dominated conference play this year that the Jayhawk cagers had easily earned the lion's share of the honorary berths. Allen named Buescher, Evans, Black, and Schnellbacher to his first string, and then after considerable thought gave Tucker the nod over Armand Dixon for the fifth position.
Dr. Allen, having completed a trying but successful basketball season, is now in the center of the Red Cross drive which is

The University Athletic board decided several weeks ago that baseball would be continued this year "if the men are available." However, the diamond sport will be operated on a limited basis with a schedule which will necessitate only a minimum of travel.

Americans Will Eat Less Food--Wickard
---
Washington, (INS)—Secretary of Agriculture Claude R. Wickard bluntly warned the American people in testimony released by the senate appropriations committee yesterday that they are going to eat less in the future.
Wickard frankly admitted when he appeared before the committee on March 2 that he was alarmed over the farm labor situation. He also said he feared?
Asked whether the food situation could be cured by a reduction in consumption, Wickard replied:
a decrease in food production.
"But I don't want anybody to think we can go down much further in the amount of food we are making available to the citizens than we are now planning to go. It is going to be something less than it is at the present time.
There's Still Lots of Wheat
"The one thing we have plenty of is the bread grains, but people just cannot eat bread alone, and as far as other things are concerned, the great demand today is on proteins and fats—and that means meat and dairy products and some of the oil crops."
Wickard told the appropriations committee that the situation with regard to food production has been growing worse.
"Since I appeared before you a month ago, I have become increasingly alarmed about our inability to get enough farm labor to reach the goals we have established for farm production this year," he said. "I am more alarmed today than I was yesterday."
"Well," said Wickard, "At the present time we are approaching pretty rapidly a level of nutrition in this country which they have in Canada, and which they have in Britain—though not yet, you understand."
Sen. Green (D) R. I., asked if the problem could not be partly met by a reduction in food consumption. Consumption Will Match Britain's
"We are tending in that direction," Wickard answered. "As a matter of fact, in order to satisfy myself, since we are not going to be able to give Britain as much as we had hoped, I am sending some one over there to study how they use their food and how much they get out of it, because they have cut down their consumption and have found better ways of feeding people."
Won't Build Planes Without Meat
Wickard added that there have been complaints that production in airplane factories dropped because of lack of meat for workers.
"Maybe we don't divide up the meat properly, but you cannot underfeed people and keep on getting increased production," Wickard warned.
"And maybe I feel a little sensitive on this," he continued, "because last year I had a number of people representing the Civilian Supply Office saying that all we have to do is tichen our belts, and tighten our belts, and tighten our belts. But that doesn't cure anything."
Wickard said that he has representatives of the Mayo clinic and Columbia University conducting an investigation to see "how to get the most from our food."
Ration Will Be Based on Diet
He declared there would be further rationing "and the ration is going to be based on what constitutes a good and safe diet."
Coed Aquatic Meet To Be Tomorrow
The first of the two preliminary swimming meets in the women's intramural swimming meet will be contested at 7:30 tomorrow evening in the Robinson gymnasium pool. The second preliminary meet will be on Thursday night at 8:00, and the final meet will be on March 17.
Organizations entered in tomorrow night's meet are: Kappa Kappa Gamma, Alpha Chi Omega, Chi Omega, Delta Gamma, IWW, Watkins hall, and Alpha Delta Pi. Those contesting on Thursday night will be: Pi Beta Phi, Kappa Alpha Theta, Gamma Phi Beta, Corbin hall, Miller hall, IND, and Co-op.
Winners of these two meets will compete for championships at 7:30 p. m. Wednesday, March 17.
Miss Ruth Hoover, assistant professor of physical education predicted as possible winners in this year's meet: Peggy Davis, breast stroke; Eva McGill, free style; Alice Jean Hess, side stroke, and Barbara Winn, diving.

Congress Fails To Remove Causes Of Most War Plant Absenteeism
At times it is difficult to determine whether or not Congress is even attempting to use the means within its power to obtain maximum strength for the war effort. For the last few weeks the cry has been resounding through the Congressional chambers that absenteeism in war industries be reduced, that men be forced to stay on the job, and that workers with an excessive number of absences from the production line be drafted.
But Congressmen, like Rep. Jed Johnson who shouted, "Unless this absenteeism and striking stops in these war industries, Congress is going to do something about it . . ," apparently are overlooking the facts of absenteeism in their effort to smear American labor.
Not more than 4,500,000 man-days in American industry were lost because of strikes:
The facts are these: In 1942,
At least 100 times this amount, 450,000,000 man-days, were lost because of illness and accidents;
Ten times as many man-days were lost because of illness and accidents than because of strikes and voluntary absenteeism combined.
About 35,000,000 man-days, less than one-tenth the number of man-days lost because of illness and accidents, were due to voluntary absenteeism;
From these figures it would seem that the logical way of reducing absenteeism would be to remove the biggest cause—illness and accident. Experts say that 90,000,000 man-days could be saved by the installation of simple health and safety measures. This would be a saving of 20 times the man-days lost because of strikes.
So Congress proceeds "to do something about it." The house appropriations committee declared that it was willing to spend;
For promotion of proper working conditions . . . nothing;
For the care of children of employed mothers . . . nothing;
For gearing education to wartime needs . . .
nothing;
For economic studies to bolster price control .. nothing;
For emergency maternity and infant care . . . nothing.
That this paradox—Congress howling for something to be done, but unwilling to provide the means—exists in our country during these days of war is shameful. For, while bickering and labor-baiting goes on in Congress, on fronts all over the world, sons of the American people are being forced to endure these "extra days" of fighting in a deadly hell.—E.E.K.

If bill collectors are having any trouble with faculty members, who received only half of their salary check last pay day.
where large amounts of blood plasma will be needed in a hurry. It is as necessary that we keep those on the home front in fighting and working condition as it is our soldiers.
The procedure of giving a pint of your blood is an entirely painless one, and takes only a short time. Appointments can be made at Watkins Memorial Hospital. Every care is shown the applicant; lab tests determine whether there is sufficient iron in the blood to serve the purpose, or whether the individual's health is all right. Though there are no ill effects, hospital authorities prefer applicants who can spend from 35 to 50 minutes at the hospital, allowing time for rest after donating the blood.
Response on the campus has been classed as "fair" by hospital authorities, and the great majority of those who have donated have been women. Only a few men have volunteered. The authorities say they believe men who are going to be called to military service immediately should not volunteer, but can see no reason why other males remaining on the campus should not.
To date only about 50 pints of blood have been donated by University students, but over twice this amount should be easily obtained. Here is a way in which students can actively aid the war effort. Let's give.

Rock Chalk Talk
By JIMMY GUNN
Fan mail: Bob Barton, student announcer on KFKU, is currently known around the Phi Psi house as Uncle Robert of the soothing monotone, all because of a fan letter (conveniently written on a post card) from a woman who said his voice was so romantic and exciting he made even a dull program interesting. Barbara Kech, Gamma Phi, is suspected of being the fan.

Chief cook-and-bottle-washer: Chancellor Deane W, Malott and Mrs. Malott were guests of Kitchen 6 at Miller hall last week, the night of the fire. After dinner the Chancellor insisted upon washing the dishes. He proved to be quite efficient, even scoured black off pans that had been collecting for months. In an effort to make conversation, Mary Steele, who was drying the dishes, commented: "I think you missed your calling. You would have made a good dishwasher."
Verily, verily: Marines have been taking some kind of physical activity at Robinson four times a week for some time now. Not so long ago, there was a marine undressing in the locker room. He was new there and wasn't quite sure of himself. Two of his comrades, clad in gym suits, started to walk off towards the stairs.
"Where you goin'?" inquired the marine plaintively, waddling after them.
* * * *
"Topside," said his comrades.
"Topside!" wailed the marine. "I can't go topside."
And he couldn't.
"I ain't got nothin' to wear."
And he didn't.
No Coffee, Cokes Profs Should Remember For Mid-Semesters
"Mid-semester grades are due the 12th, Friday. The exam will be Tuesday," a history professor announced last Thursday.
"So soon, my gosh, where has the time gone? Seems like it was just a month since I plowed through snow in zero weather to go up the Hill and enroll," we typical students moaned.
Enrollment was in January ter. That much was different, but now, as usual, when midsemesters are coming up students are unprepared. That Noreen Old Library!
That Nasty Old Library!
There's outside reading that hasn't been started, or, in a few cases, completed. And the professor faithfully promised a question based on the library reading. For some reason, we typical students couldn't find time to make it to the library. If we did find the time, we found one of the better students reading the book, and we didn't care to waste our time waiting.
Notebooks cause us students to chew as many nails as outside reading, "We warned you to keep them up. You aren't grade school children, in age anyway. You're supposed to have a sense of responsibility when you come to college," say you professors.
We do have a sense of responsibility, that's part of the trouble. We're responsible for the plans we make for the weekend, for the house treasury, and for the church party. And most of all, we're responsible for other classes. Some how, perhaps it's unintentional, the professors give the students the impression that 'their' classes are the only ones taught at the University, and that 'their' classes should be given first consideration. Then just before mid-semesters some of you professors assign 'some more material that we really should cover in this other book and another 20 pages in the next chapter'.
Quit Rushing Us!
The notebook comes due and we students know by simple arithmetic that we can't possibly accomplish all the professors have planned for us. Experience has taught us not to
instead of February this semes-
slight an instructor, obviously anyway. If we have to cut a class, we apologize and confess our deep interest in the course, and hope that we can take another course under the same instructor.
When a paper or assignment is late, the student is at fault. Nothing but a hospital excuse or death in the family will allow us to creep into the professor's good graces again, even then we aren't assured of our deserving grade. If the student is the type that blushes or stammerns easily, especially when explaining an absence, he is given a suspicious look by the instructor.
This semester, we students and professors should have an understanding. Candy bars, cokes, and coffee are not as plentiful as they were a semester ago. These refreshers and stimulators are necessities for quiz time, at least for the student. No doubt the professors use them too. For the good of all, midsemesters should be planned with the shortage of cokes, candy bars, and coffee in mind. If not, we'll have to use caffein tablets, and students shouldn't become addicted to dope.

Victory Teams Shape Speeches For State Tour
The Victory Speakers, whose air is to bring before the public pertinent facts and information concerning some phase of the war effort, are preparing their speeches for coming tours. There will be three speakers on a team; these teams will present programs to Civic Service clubs in nearby towns.
A two-day trip has been planned to cover towns north and east, including Atchison, Hiawatha, Horton, and several others. Another trip is planned to include some of the southern towns. Although they do not intend to respond to all of the calls for programs, Professor Buchler, of the speech and drama department, said they planned to cover between 50 and 75 audiences.
Many of the speeches are already prepared. A few have been given in programs at various organizations in Lawrence.
Ed Hansen, College senior, will speak on the Culbertson plan for peace after the war.
Bill Hough, College sophomore, will speak of "How to Pay for this War," and will present a working plan.
Edith Ann Fleming, College junior, will discuss two topics, "War Marriages," and "Know Your Enemies—the Japanese."
Two speeches will be given concerning geography. Max Webster, business junior, will talk about "The New Geography"; Kenneth Winters, College junior, will talk about "The Air Age."
Jessie Farmer, education senior, will discuss "Modern Medicine and Modern Battles," and Mary Cheney has the topic "Madicine—A Crucial Weapon of War."
Bob Plumb, College senior, will talk about "The Man-power Problem."
These speeches will be given for the purpose of helping people understand the war effort better by giving them the tools for thinking.
Women Now Invade Old Army Post
By International News Service
The WAACS have arrived at historic Jefferson Barracks, oldest army post west of the Mississippi river.
Approximately 60 trimly-uniformed smiling members of the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps, who got their training at Daytona Beach, Fla., stepped off a train yesterday as a band played "Hail, Hail the Gang's All Here."
Today, they were assigned to special quarters built especially for them. The quarters are a short distance from the home once occupied by Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, and now used by army nurses.
The WAACs comprise will take clerical jobs in the Army Air Forces Aeronautical Chart plant in downtown St. Louis, thereby releasing men for active duty.
New Club Organized For Undergraduate Chemistry Students
A new under-graduate chemistry club is being organized by Dr. Calvin Vander Werf, assistant professor of chemistry, and seven chemistry majors. Students who are chemistry majors and who have completed 10 hours of chemistry with a B average will be eligible to join, Betty Austin, temporary chairman, said. Freshmen will not be missed. Miss Austin explained.
The club has been organized to encourage a professional spirit, to introduce chemistry majors to opportunities available after graduation and to encourage student initiative.
Any eligible student who wishes to join should contact one of the organizers for further details, Miss Austin said. Those who can give further information are Bernard Lampert and Betty Learned, College sophomores; Allan Cromley and Lucy Nunn, College juniors; Jean Bartz and Jill Peck, College seniors.

William Smith Girls See Posture Defects In Motion Pictures
Geneva, N. Y.—(ACP)—Slow-motion picture analysis of the body mechanics of each freshman girl at William Smith College has brought home so dramatically some defects and shortcomings conspicuous to others that a program of specialized exercises to develop better poise, carriage and movement is now enthusiastically accepted where before it had simply been tolerated.
Started in 1940 by Miss Marcia Winn, professor of physical education, the program originally was intended only to bring to the girls a realization of peculiarities they unknowingly had developed.
Among most common faults revealed are awkward mechanical use of hip, knee and ankle joints, incorrect transfer of weight in everyday walking, exaggerated or stiff use of the arms, and general postural shortcomings, including the familiar round shoulders, forward heads, protruding abdomens, and hollow backs.
Coeds found it impossible to believe their own faults until they saw themselves in the movies, but then entered wholeheartedly into the corrective program.
FACULTY PIANIST----

The program will be closed with Mr. Preyer's transcription of the Strauss waltz, "Thousand and One Night," arranged by him in 1930 and used in concert tours by Guy Maier, concert pianist and former member of the Maier-Pattison two-piano team.

HERSHEY EXTENDS---
(continued from page one) theological students the recommendation states: The student will be deferred if it is certified by the institution in which he is pursuing the preprofessional course of study that if he continues his progress he will complete such preprofessional course of study on or before July 1, 1945, and. (2) it is certified by a recognized medical or theological college that he is unqualifiedly accepted for admission and will undertake professional studies upon completion of his preprofessional work.
Graduate Must Be In Research
A graduate student will be deferred if in addition to pursuing further studies he is engaged in one of the following: (1) in scientific research certified by a recognized federal agency as related to the war effort; or (2) in classroom or laboratory instruction in one of these scientific or specialized fields for not less than 12 hours a week.
This means that the premedical and pretheological student may be deferred if some graduate school will accept the student nearly two years before he will begin work in the school.
These recommendations are not orders and draft boards are not forced to follow the instructions but unless the board is having a very difficult time filling their quota the instructions will probably be adhered to, local officials believe.

A total of 600 Waves and Spars have enlisted through the St. Louis office since the navy and coast guard began recruiting women last December.
After a six day concert tour of Kansas and eastern Missouri, Professors Joseph Wilkins, Waldemar Geltch, Jan Chiapusso, and Allie Merle Conger returned to the University Friday with the report that despite bad weather the concerts were well attended and successful.

ADVISERS WILL----
(continued from page one)
Scholarship chairmen desiring reports on upperclassmen should leave in the College office an alphabetical list of their students enrolled in the College. As soon as possible, the unsatisfactory grades of upperclassmen will be entered on the list which may be called for then. In addition, all unsatisfactory grades made by juniors and seniors will be mailed to them by the office.
Reports Are Classified
Mid-semester reports are alphabetized, collected for each student, and classified in the College office. This explains the time elapsing between the filing of the reports in the office and the advising period, office workers said.
Mid-semester advising not only gives opportunity for checking up, but also gives the student an opportunity to talk with a faculty member unhurriedly about problems concerning his University life.

Art Banquet Is Featured At Convention
A banquet beginning at 6:30 Friday evening will be the featured meeting of the combined conventions tomorrow and Saturday of the Kansas Art Teachers Association, the High School Art Conference, and the Kansas State Federation of Art, according to Miss Marjorie Whitney, associate professor of design.
Anyone interested in art may attend the banquet, Miss Whitney said. Tickets are on sale in the office of the design department in Spooner-Thayer museum and will be sold Friday morning at the hostess desk in the Union building.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott and Dean Donald M. Swarthout will give addresses of welcome. During the evening, Allen Crafton, professor of speech, will present a humorous lecture on Kansas. Messages from prominent artists, such as Al Capp creater of the "Lil Abner" comic strip, Capt. Ward Lockwood, head of the art department at the University of Texas, and Jan Balet, art editor of "Mademoiselle," to Kansas students of art will be read at this time.
Each person attending the banquet will receive a cactus planted in red clay pots glazed in green or red.
Special exhibits will be shown throughout the conference in the lounge of the Union building, Spooner-Thayer museum, Dyche museum, Marvin hall, and Fraser hall.
Paintings By Bloch Are To Be Exhibited
Sixteen paintings by Albert Bloch, professor of drawing and painting, will be the featured exhibit until the middle of April in Spooner-Thayer museum, Miss Minnie Moodie, curator, has announced.
One of the paintings on display, "Shrouded Figures," was shown at the Century of Progress fair in New York. The somber colors used together with the seven shrouded figures against a desolate background depict tragedy. Professor Bloch has painted the picture with smooth, curved lines.
Also in the gallery will be pictures of painting students of the University, and students of the Lawrence Memorial High School during the combined meetings, tomorrow and Saturday, of the Kansas Art Teachers Association, the High School Art Conference, and the Kansas State Federation of Art.
The display will be in the north and south galleries on the second floor of the museum.

Templin Rites Will Be Sunday In Fraser Hall
Memorial services for Dean Olin Templin, who died last week, will be held in Fraser theater Sunday at 3 p.m., Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today.
The place for the service was selected by Mrs. Templin. It was from the stage of "Fraser Chapel" that Dean Templin and Mrs. Templin, then Lena Van Voorhis, were graduated from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences in 1886, in a class of 19, the largest college class to be graduated up to that time. Olin Templin was class orator on that occasion.
Tributes to Dean Templin at the memorial services will be given by Chancellor Deane W. Malott; Dr. Ellis B. Stouffer, dean of the graduate school; Miss Rose Morgan, of the department of English; Thornton Cook, president of the Columbia National bank, of Kansas City; Dr. John Ise, professor of economics; W. C. Stevens, formerly chairman of the department of botany at the University; and C. A. Preyer, of the department of music. Dr. Stevens will be represented by a Summerfield scholar, who will present his tribute.
Residents of Templin hall, one of the scholarship halls named for Dean Templin, will act as ushers at the services.

Seventeen-year-old reservists, if regularly enrolled students in a college or university, will not be called into service until the close of the present term, or until six months after becoming eighteen, whichever is earliest, it was learned from a Seventh Service Command memorandum to Dr. Laurence C. Woodruff, registrar.
He has been made an honorary doctor of civil law of Edinburgh, and an honorary doctor of letters at Princeton. Mr. Maurois also received the Distinguished Conduct medal of the Commander of the Legion of Honour.
Strangely enough, though a true Frenchman, his greatest fame as an author has been won through his books written in English about the English people. Books by Mr. Maurois include "The Silences of Colonel Bramble" (1918); "Ariel: the Life of Shelley" (1923); "Mape: the World of Illusion" (1926); "Bernard Quesnay" (1926); "Disraeli" (1927); "Aspects of Biography" (1929); "Byron" (1930); "Lyautey" (1931); "The Weigher of Souls" (1932); "Voltaire" (1932); "The Family Circle" (1982); "Dickens" (1934); "Poets and Prophets" (1936); "Chateaubriand" (1938); and "Battle of France" (1940).
His three most recent books are "Tragedy in France" (1940), a story of the part in native France played in World War II; "Forgive Us Our Trespasses" (1941), an autobiography and "I Remember, I Remember" (1942), a book of memoirs. Because of his pro-British inclination, Mr. Maurois has been discriminated against by the Nazis. In The New York Times, Oct. 26, 1941, it was stated that all books by Andre Maurois had been banned by the Nazis in a special decree.

Composer of Symphony Was in KU Music Week
Roy Harris, distinguished American composer who was the guest speaker at the Convocation which opened KU's Music Week last May and also the director of the University Symphony orchestra which closed the Music Week, has just finished the first really important Fifth Symphony written by an American.
The Fifth Symphony which planned back in 1940, and had been promised to Serge Koussevitsky, conductor of the Boston Symphony orchestra, for the spring of 1941. But as Mr. Harris puts it "I found that I was not ready to write it. And so it was not until the summer of 1942 that I knew I could write the work." Resources Duties
Last fall when he resumed his duties at Cornell University, where he is the University's composer-in-residence, he began working on the symphony which was finished two weeks ago. Last Friday and Saturday nights this new Fifth Symphony received its premiere in Boston where the Boston Symphony under Koussevitsky's direction presented it to an enthusiastic.
Dedicated to the Soviet Union and played in honor of the 25th anniversary of the Red Army, the symphony received a real world premiere Saturday afternoon when it was broadcast by a major radio network, shortwaved to Latin America and then to England from where it was relayed to Russia and North Africa.
Dedicated to Soviet Union
The symphony was written in three movements instead of the conventional four with the first movement, the Prelude, opening on a martial note of brass and percussion which drives forward with the rhythmic beat of men and machines. The second movement carries a mood of melodic tenderness similar to a singing chorale. The third and last movement ends the symphony with the playing of repetitious musical chairs.
Roy Harris was comparatively unknown until 1934 when his popular score "American Overture—When Johnny Comes Marching Home" was pressed to the music world. In 1937 he wrote the "Piano Quintet" which is acknowledged by the most high brow musicians as a masterpiece. Other musical scores which audiences have enjoyed are his "Tired Symphony," the "Folk-Song Symphony," and "Cimarron" which Harris wrote to depict the rush for Oklahoma land in which his parents took part, "Cimarron" and "When Johnny Comes Marching Home" were both played by the University Symphony orchestra during last year's Music Week.

Ryther Speaks In Kansas City
Standardization of printing instruction in vocational schools in this country was urged by T. C. Ryther, director of the University press, when he spoke to the Craftsmen's club of greater Kansas City Tuesday evening. The club's members are printing superintendents and foremen.
Because there is no uniformity in instruction, and because of low standards of teaching, employers now are dubious of the printing ability of persons turned out by the schools, Mr. Ryther said.
Standardization, he believes, along with "good, stiff courses," would enable employers to hire students from the schools, at standard rates of pay, immediately after their instruction had been finished.
Mr. Ryther advocated, in addition, that all printing instructors spend at least five years working in the trade before teaching, and have the college education necessary; that adequate laboratory and instructional equipment be provided; that pay rates of teachers be raised to a level approximate to those in the trade; and that the goals of such schools be to turn out good printers, and not to furnish the school or board of education with inexpensive printing, as he believes is now the case in many places.
Mr. Ryther also contended that students should be paid for what they produce while working, such production to be kept separate from instruction.
If standards are set up, Mr. Ryther told the club, most of the 2,000 schools teaching printing would adopt them in order to maintain their scholastic ratings.
Five members were elected to the Kansan Board, executive body of the University Daily Kansan, in a meeting of the Board Tuesday evening.
Those elected were Matt Heuertz,

College seniors, and Jimmy Gunn

Survey Reports Water Resources In Ford County
A report describing the geology and ground-water resources of Ford County has just been published by the State Geological Survey. The report, prepared by H. A. Waite, is based on several months of field work, including the drilling of test holes and the measuring of more than 500 wells. Seventy chemical analyses of samples of water from Ford County are listed and discussed.
Although Ford County has had abundant rainfall during the past few years, the question of developing additional irrigation supplies from wells remains important because of the previous years of recurrent drought. The results of the investigation indicate that the supply of ground water in the alluvium and in the underlying Ogallala formation in the Arkansas valley is sufficient to permit further development of irrigation from wells, particularly in the parts of the valley that lie outside the heavily-pumped area between Dodge City and Fort Dodge. The practicability of pumping water from wells for irrigation on the uplands in Ford County is also discussed in the report. The greater depth to water level in most of the upland areas and the resultant higher operating costs have heretofore limited the development of irrigation in these areas.
The work was carried out by the State Geological Survey of Kansas and the United States Geological

Vassar Coeds
Do Housework
Poughkeepsie, N. Y., (INS) — Vassar College girls seeking an A.B. degree under the three year program recently adopted, will be required to give an hour a day to household tasks, Dr. Henry Noble MacCracken, president of Vassar, revealed yesterday.
The girls will have to clean their own rooms, wait on tables, set tables and perform messenger service.
The plan was adopted to meet the current labor shortage. It is not a radical departure for Vassar as two student residence houses have been operated on a cooperative plan for ten years with students doing most of the house work involved.
War Department Awards Medals to Two Kansans
Washington, (INS) — The War Department today announced the awarding of air medals to two Kansas of the US Army Air Forces for meritorious service in aerial fights in the Southwest Pacific area.

Workmen Clear Floor and Wall Of Fire Debris
Workmen are continuing to remove the debris from the ruins of the Anatomy building when weather permits. The men from the buildings and grounds department will soon have all the debris removed from the floor of the ruins, and then will remove the floor and the remaining portion of the east wall.
After the remains of the building are removed, the hole under the building will be filled with dirt and the ground landscaped. University plans do not call for the construc tion of a building in the spot formerly occupied by the Anatomy building.
A bill asking for $84,000 for the replacement of the anatomy quarters and its contents is now being considered by the house ways and means committee of the state legislature. The University requests $54,000 for the replacement of quarters and $30,000 for the replacement of equipment.
The classes formerly held in the Anatomy building are being held in Snow hall. The cadavers in the tank in the southwest corner of the ruins will remain there until a suitable place for their storage is found. Approximately 50 cadavers are in the chemical solution in the tank.

Lenten Season Portrays Universal Custom Changes
With the advent of the Lenten season, students now find an entirely different environment settling over the Easter period.
In the Catholic churches the law of fasting and abstinence has been relaxed this year because of food rationing and the difficulties of obtaining normal supplies of foodstuffs. The Epis- pernal churches, however, will*
observe the Lenten season, following the customary fasting days which mean self-denial on all days except Sunday.
The opening of the Lenten devotions yesterday with Ash Wednesday, showed evidence of a general return to religion, apparently due to the present war.

Swimming Meet Tonight

CAUSE GAINS MOMENTUM
We hear that those who are working for Roger Whitworth's participation in conference athletics, far from lying down after their defeat two weeks ago, are in actuality gaining additional momentum, and that responsible student leaders have become more and more interested in the cause which is taking on broader significance.
For those who wonder just what did happen at Kansas City, it seems that W. W. Davis, as promised, did make the motion against barring colored athletes from conference sports but there was no second to the motion, and it was shelved.
Whitworth in the meantime discussed the matter with several Oklahoma and Missouri trackmen, and found them not at all adverse to running against him.
A suggestion which is favorably viewed by several University trackmen is the making of Negroes eligible to run in the coming Kansas-Kansas State dual meet. One team member reported a conversation with Kansas State coach Ward Haylett, and stated the Aggie mentor said he was not adverse to colored participation in the conference meet.
Haylett reportedly said he could have turned out a much better track team this spring if he could have used talented colored men on the Manhattan campus. Perhaps Haylett and coach Gwinn Henry can get together on a plan which would allow these men to compete in the dual meet at least.
***
BASKETBALL ECHOES
Said the Topeka Capital's Gene Kemper of the Jayhawk cagers: "That undefeated Big Six record should furnish some fine foxhole reflections for the major portion of this squad that today is marching into war. Such an accomplishment has been attained only twice before in Big Six history—by Kansas in 1936 and Oklahoma in 1929. The Germans and Japs will be hearing from the crew that got this job done."
He then concluded: "This club must be ranked among Allen's best—and that's a mouthful."
Other honors are pouring in for the Jayhawkers, with Charley Black being recently named by the Great Lakes team as the best man they faced in their 37 games this year. Thus Black got the nod over Illinois' Phillips and Creighton's Beisser. Black was also named by Pink Hinkle, the sailors' coach, on his all-opponent team.
Whitney Martin recently devoted his associated press column to Fhog Allen, quoting the Kansas mentor on his defense of the four foul rule currently under fire. The rule is necessary for good clean team play, according to Allen.

The Cessna team plans to play several games while enroute to Denver, where the tournament will get underway Sunday.
The Bobcats, one of the tournament favorites, have won tuneup games during the past two evenings, having defeated a Wichita all-star team 53 to 31 in Anthony, and then downed the Mt.

Home Basketball Attendance Down
Larger home crowds, predicted before the opening of the basketball season this winter, failed to materialize as crowds at Hoch auditorium this year poured a gross of only $9,924 into Kansas coffers as compared to $10,294.43 last year. Gross take away from home, however, was larger for the 1942-43 season.
Gas and rubber rationing limitations on travel and the lower student attendance were not compensated for by the city's increased population, it was said. From 300 to 1,000 student reservations were empty at each home game, authorities said. Wartime withdrawals from school were believed to be responsible for a portion of that shrinkage in attendance. A New Record
A total of nearly 100,000 fans saw the Jayhawkers in action this year on home and foreign courts, according to Earl L. Falkenstein, secretary of the KU Athletic association. Paid admissions in actuality totaled 96,-526, a new record for a Kansas team bettering last year's 67,662 attendance by approximately 9,000 fans.
The wide margin by which the Jayhawkers took the championship was another factor, it was said, since the final Kansas State game, usually a good crowd attractor, had no conference significance and was comparatively poorly attended.
Big New York Crowd
Largest crowd to watch the Kansans perform this year was at Madison Square Garden, where Phog Allen's charges downed a favored Fordham team before 14,700 fans. It was the second Jayhawk basketball appearance in the huge garden in the University's athletic history. On the same Eastern trip 8,000 fans watched the Jayhawkers wallop St. Joseph's at Philadelphia.

RooseveltSubmits New Social Plan
Washington, (INS)—In the most far-reaching social document ever drafted by the US government, President Roosevelt today submitted to congress two plans for the postwar economy calling for jobs "at decent pay" to all who are able to work and outlining an American Beveridge program covering "freedom from want" from the cradle to the grave.
The two documents, covering years of work by the national resources planning board, were sent to the congress by President Roosevelt with the declaration that "We need to look forward to the accomplishment of these objectives—world peace, democratic society, and a dynamic economy."
One of the reports covered economic planning for transition from a wartime to a peacetime economy to insure jobs for all able to work. "Men in the armed forces and all those engaged in the war effort rightly expect us to be considering their future welfare," Mr. Roosevelt said in a letter accompanying his message.
The other report covered social security and was regarded as the American counterpart of the Beveridge plan proposed in England.
In submitting the report to the nation's law-makers, Mr. Roosevelt warned that "We must not return to the inequities, insecurity, and fears of the past, but ought to move forward towards the promise of the future."
In the report covering transition to a peacetime economy, the national resources planning board pointed out that through such advance plans we need to stir the imagination and aspiration of all people, free or temporarily enslaved, for new objectives, new goals which can be reached when the war is won."
The document opened with the declaration:
Proposes Outlawing Violence
"Our peace aims are war weapons which in the end may determine the outcome of the military struggle."
In this report, it was proposed that "an effective jural (legal) order of the world outlawing violence and imperialism" be established. It did not elaborate on this, but it implied that some postwar agency should be set up to police the entire world to make the present world war the last one.
The second report, covering "security, work, and relief policies," warned that "The need for public aid will be both large and persistent for some time to come." Roosevelt Sends Letter
President Roosevelt, in transmitting it to the law-makers, said in his letter:
"It reviews the accomplishments and experience of the last 10 years, pointing out some of the weaknesses of our security system, and suggesting ways of improving and strengthening the whole program."
The nation's chief executive also stated:
"We can all agree on our objectives and in our common determination that work, fair pay, and social security after the war is won must be firmly established for the people of the United States of America.
"Men in the armed forces and all those engaged in the war effort rightly expect us to be considering their future welfare.
"We fight today for security for

Pictures Are Effective
Hollywood. (INS) — President Roosevelt in a message to the motion picture industry said last week "... We have succeeded in turning the tremendous power of the motion picture into an effective war instrument without the slightest resort to the totalitarian methods of our enemies."
Assets Totaled
our nation, and at the same time we can endeavor to give our citizens and their families security against attacks from without, and against fear of economic distress in old age, in poverty, sickness, involuntary unemployment, and accidental injuries. We need to look forward to the accomplishment of these objectives—world peace, democratic society and a dynamic economy."
Total assets of Northwestern University in 1920 totaled $11,900,000.
The report presenting the results of the planning board's work on post war plans and measures to meet the problems of transition from war to peace, included:
"Plans for demobilization of men from the armed forces and from war industries, demobilization of war plants and wartime economic control, plans with private enterprise and for improvement of physical facilities—urban transportation, energy, land, water, and public works. Also included are plans for the development of service activities—health, nutrition, education—and for social security."
Kansas Faces Road Problem Officials Say
Topeka, (INS)—One of Kansas' most difficult problems until the end of the war will be that of maintaining farm-to-market roads, officials said today as the legislature struggled with the problem of making revenues cover extending needs.
Because of reduced gasoline and auto taxes, the Senate has approved a measure providing that the state return to counties for local road maintenance only 25 per cent of money collected from gasoline taxes, instead of the fixed sum of $600,000 as has been done in the past.
Some even predicted that the situation may become so serious that a special session of the legislature may be called for the first of next year so straighten out matters.
Under this procedure, local officials swamped the capital with protests saying any farm-to-market roads will have to be neglected or property owners must face another tax increase.
Meanwhile the house agreed with the senate on the scheduled adjournment date by adopting the upper house resolution to cease consideration of all bills after next Thursday
The house ways and means committee put a bill on the calendar calling for the purchase of a new $2,000 automobile for the governor.
The house is expected to take up the controversial labor bill the last of this week or Monday at the latest.

The Forgotten Heroes Of This War Are The Men Of The Merchant Marine
Praises for the valiant Marine corps men of Guadalcanal still ring. Newspapers banner the exploits of American soldiers in the North African campaign, and of Navy men hammering the Japs in the Pacific. But there is one branch of the service, a civilian branch to be true, that seems to be forgotten, though it is the most essential and most dangerous branch of them all—we refer to the Merchant Marine.
Figures released by the Maritime Union reveal that casualties among these sailors are now past the four per cent mark, far greater than the casualties of any of the uniformed services.
Said one grizzled veteran: "Between hell and an oil tanker, I'd take hell—excepting I wouldn't be hurting Hitler any in hell." A single torpedo from an enemy sub sends huge areas of seawater, suddenly covered with a film of oil, bursting into flames which roast alive crew members within hundreds of yards of the stricken vessel. Other merchant marine assignments are almost as dangerous, and Hitler and the Japs strive desperately to cut the arteries of sea communications.
After each sinking, however, those hardy crew members who survive—and there are many who do not—return once again to the sea, determined that the vital traffic shall not be halted.
Attempts such as that recently made by an Akron paper—and immediately seized upon by the Chicago Tribune and other papers—to detract from the exploits of these men do not need the direct refutations they have received. They merit only contempt.
Men of the merchant marine are slowly gaining the recognition they have so long deserved. More and more, young men who want to serve their country in a most vital, and most dangerous manner, are joining the United States Merchant Marine.-J.D.K.
Partisan Groups in This Country Due Little Praise In War Effort
What can a man believe in?
Today millions of the nation's youth are being called upon to fight for their country; to fight for the preservation of "democracy." But what is this "democracy" they are asked to die for—it takes capital, labor, big business, little business, farmers—all this it takes to make a democracy, but with it, what is there that is worth asking a boy to give up his life to save?
Is it capital? This nation's manhood would scarcely feel like putting forth such effort to save the country's financiers from their own foolhardiness that brought on the world depression in the last decade and contributed to the present war.
Is it labor? Again, the answer can only be no. Those boys who have spent days and nights of hell on the world's battlefronts can have only scorn for those at home whose contribution to the war effort consists of demands for wage increases and a shameful record of voluntary absenteeism from the war plants, while shortages of fighting equipment have placed many an American soldier behind enemy prison gates.
Just Wondering
Why more of our patriotic students aren't donating to the blood bank for civilian disasters at Watkins Memorial hospital.
Is it big business? Again, no. Manufacturers who failed to convert to war production because they feared their competitors would take over the civilian markets—manufacturers who resisted government efforts to convert because they feared government control can hardly feel that their pre-war record deserves the recognition of our fighting men.
Is it little business? Designated roughly as business that does less than $50,000 turnover annually, the businesses in this category have little to their credit in the nation's efforts to produce for war. Many have whined and growled about government; many more have proved far too inefficient in management to be of any aid in conversion to war production. Business-as-usual remained the pipe dream of a great many, even past Pearl Harbor. Their record, too, has scarcely emerged from its shadows.
Is it agriculture? Here, again, is a story of demands for higher prices for crops, for subsidies, for incentive payments—incentive payments to produce food needed to win the war! No, it can hardly be incentive payments our boys are fighting for.
No one of these different groups which go together to make up our country is any more to blame than the other. All have been shortsighted and selfish, though each group can point out notable exceptions. But each has a debt to pay to the boys on foreign shores, and they can show that they mean to pay that debt in a worthwhile manner by stopping the eternal bickering among themselves, by showing more initiative, and most of all, by showing that their great concern is winning the war instead of personal gains.

Ah-hah!: In spite of all the advance publicity about "Phog" Allen taking the army reservists basketball players to Leavenworth right after the basketball game Saturday night, it is reliably reported that the group left Sunday afternoon instead from in front of Watkins Memorial Hospital.

Ah, 'tis spring: This changeable March weather we've been having lately prompted one fellow to comment that the weather was just about as uncertain as the draft and reserve situation . . . One student commented on the fact that it was spring and was asked indignantly how he knew. "I have a cold," he replied . . . Golfers and sports of all kinds will find it muddy going this weekend. But, then, golfers are a hardy lot. They have been known to slosh around in knee-deep mud before.

"Being round and smooth, the rolling stone rolled into the mattress factory one day and saw how overgrown everything was, and proceeded to milk the thoughtful stone of his moss, for the thoughtful stone was a moss-back and the rolling stone was wise in the ways of the world.
"I once heard a story," said he, "of two stones, a rolling stone and a non-rolling stone. The rolling stone, true to form, gathered no moss, but the other did, for he was a thoughtful stone and sat in a shady place all day to think. And he thought and he gathered moss and he gathered moss and he thought.
The spice of life: "Ah-hem," hawed the Sage of Mt. Oread and broke a long silence thereby.
"The moral to this story," said the Sage, "is that rolling stones may gather no moss, but they gather some wonderful memories."
"Now, as I said, the rolling stone, unlike the thoughtful stone, gathered no moss. He did not, therefore, enter the mattress business and stuff his mattress with it. He did not grow filthy rich off the moss of the other stones. He did not become the mattress king of the country. Indeed, it is doubtful if he ever slept on a mattress, but he had the rough edges knocked off him and he grew quite round and smooth.

"Have you been here long?" I asked to keep up the conversation.
"Couple of months—not very long, yet it seems like a helluva long time in some ways," he answered.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, when I first came out here to Kansas, to Lawrence, I thought I might enjoy myself—small home town, college crowd and such like, but—oh, let's cut it," he ended and put out his cigarette.
"Hell, go ahead and gripe. That's an American privilege, and besides it might make you feel better," I urged, as I had a good idea how he felt.
He took the cigarette I offered and stood there a moment.
"Maybe I had the wrong idea, but being from the East, I'd heard that the West was noted for its hospitality. I haven't seen too much of it here in town—the kind I want anyway," he began.
"Yeah—go on."
"You know, you said you saw me drunk. Well you did see me. Yeah, I know that's my fault, but a few things around here would help a lot."
"What do you mean," I wanted to know.
"There's no USO center here now. That Community building sits down there—the only time we're in it is to play basket ball. There's no place to go to meet the right kind of people—girls—in the right way. You can always pick up someone on it."

US Asks Statement Of Russia's War Aims
Washington, (INS) — Unofficial Washington is fairly well convinced today that President Roosevelt is shrewdly maneuvering for a public understanding with Premier Stalin on Russia's plans for peace and the postwar world.
The President's advisers maintain that the United Nations have agreed on principles with Stalin but thus far, Russia's
a complete mystery not only to the peoples of the world but to many governments. Some high government officials in this country and members of congress frankly confess they know no more about the part Russia intends to play in the postwar world than the average citizen learns by reading his daily newspaper.
Wallace Warns of Third War
It is recalled that Vice President Wallace has warned that unless there is a definite understanding between the United States, Britain and Russia, the seeds of a third world war will be sown. Hence, unofficial Washington believes that Admiral William H. Standley—the President's personal choice as ambassador to Moscow—bluntly questioned Stalin's gratitude over Lend-Lease aid as a step toward clarifying Russia's place in the postwar world. If Standley's act achieves such a goal, he will be well repaid for the rebukes administered to him by the state department and administration spokesmen in congress.
Stalin Is a Lone Wolf
It is pointed out that Stalin has played a lone hand in the war to date. He aroused some concern in other United Nations when he declined to attend the Roosevelt-Churchill conference in North Africa—pleading he was too busy fighting the war to leave Moscow. And again, two weeks ago, he told the Russian people that "the Red army alone is bearing the whole weight of the war"—just 10 weeks after the Anglo-American invasion of North Africa.
On two other recent occasions, Stalin created worry in high places by announcements that Russia was fighting only to clear her soil of the German invaders. This purpose was not exactly in keeping with the war aims of the other United Nations. Must Re Mean Realistic
Must Be More Realistic
Under these circumstances, it would surprise no one in Washington if Mr. Roosevelt were trying to get a clear-cut and definite agreement with Stalin concerning postwar plans. There is some support for this belief in the recent declaration of Undersecretary of State Welles that "the time has come when we must translate into practical reality the principles on which we have all agreed."
It is considered significant that Admiral Standley's statement that the Russian people were not informed of United Nations aid had an immediate effect in Moscow. Last night, the Moscow radio broadcast in full the recent report of Lend-Lease Administrator Edward R. Stettinius on the amount of Lend-Lease aid already dispatched to Russia.
Book Breaks Records
William Saroyan's "The Human Comedy" has broken all advance sales records of the Book-Of-The-Month Club. The advance -342,000 copies—indicates a possible total sale of more than 1,000,000.
British Ignore Standley Attack
London, (INS)—The British government yesterday adopted an aloof attitude towards the controversy stirred up by Admiral William H. Standley's charge that the Soviet government had not fully informed the Russian people about the extent of Allied aid.
Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden refused to be drawn into discussion of the subject in the House of Commons. He said it was a matter that concerned the United States and Soviet governments. Earlier Brendan Bracken, minister of information, also declined to comment.
He said that the British government had received "fullest cooperation from the Soviet government, and that the sale of the British newspaper "British Ally" in Russia was increasing daily.
Eden said the British government would welcome discussions with the United States and other Allied Nations on post-war economic questions. A number of informal conversations already held with Allied representatives in London, he said, will be continued.
He said the proposed meeting in Ottawa between American and British representatives on post-war problems was welcomed by the British government.
WHERE TO GO---street or in some joint downtown but nine times out of ten, the girl are about sixteen or the kind you don't want to meet."
"We are ready to meet representatives of the United States at any mutually convenient place, and we hope the conference will have the widest scope," Eden declared.
(continued from page six)
"You're lucky, even if you don't know it. I've seen you around with some nice girl. But me, I don't know anybody so I just go around with the fellows. And they're just like me. Heck, we're pretty nice guys back home. Here we have nothing to do and no place to go on liberty."
I knew that for a fact, too.
"Occasionally some of us are asked to a party somewhere, but even that's not so hot. Half the time you feel they're just doing it because they think its their patrotic duty, not because they want to. Cripes, you feel so darned awkward, like a guy on exhibition!" Mae savagely inhaled on his cigarette.
Oh, sure, but it's darned boring to go to a show by yourself all the time. Besides that, a man in uniform only gets a few cents reduction on his ticket. Back East if you didn't get in free, you at least got a half comp."
"Yes, I know," I agreed.
"Well, can't you go to the show?"
USA Aid to Russia Rapidly Increased
I knew that for a fact, too.
"Some people seem to think that we are a bunch of rubes or wolves," he continued. "Heck, if we had the
Washington, (INS) — Edward R. Stettinius, Jr., lend-lease administrator, reported to Congress today on the second anniversary of passage of lend lease legislation that the United States had shipped 9 billion 632 million dollars worth of aid—including 1 billion 400 million dollars worth of airplanes—to the allies in the last two years.
Most significant chapter of the report was the notation that aid to Russia is being sharply increased.
ADDITIONAL SOCIETY--opportunity we could show the people that the majority of us are decent guys like anyone else. Sure some whistle and make remarks to the girls, but we're OK underneath."
Total aid to Russia was 1 billion 826 million dollars.
Of the amount furnished, Stettinius declared 7 billion 831 million represented munitions, food and other supplies and 1 billion 801 million dollars represented services rendered to the United Nations cause.

BombsBlast2000 Nazi War Plants
(International News Service)
For the first time since the RAF embarked on its all-out attempt to destroy a German war machine, actual figures were announced that threw a bright light on the staggering devastation.
While a savage battle for Karkov continued and local allied victories were recorded in Tunisia, the House of Commons
again became the sounding board for the major war development.
Sir Archibald Sinclair Secretary of State for air introduced in Parliament air estimates for the current year and told in some detail what the RAF and the United States Army Air Force has already done to break the back of Germany.
Here are a few highlights from his long and detailed account.
Factories Destroyed
Two thousand German factories and industrial establishments have been destroyed or blasted out of action.
More than 1 million Germans have been rendered homeless.
At least one-half of the best German pilots and fighter planes have been pinned down in western Europe by constant RAF attacks. As a result only 1/4 of the German Air Force is in operation over Russia from the White sea to the Black.
German troops in battle are clamoring for air support.
Attacks Continue
The Allied attacks will continue and grow in scope, Sinclair said, and the more American planes and pilots that come over to participate, the sooner the "malignant" power of Hitlerism will be ground into dust.
There were few changes on the fighting front. Meanwhile, patrol activities of Allied forces in central Tunisia continue.
On the Soviet front Russian armies were locked in bitter struggle for Kharkov and scored new gains in the areas further to the north. In the southwest Pacific, allied bombing squadrons heavily attacked the enemy bases and damaged at least six Japanese vessels. In Washington Secretary of War Stimson warned that Japanese "heavy raids" may be expected in the near future.
Crafton Names All Girl Play Cast
The cast includes Betty Rowton, College senior; Betty Dunlap, College senior; Roberta Sue McCluggage, College sophomore; Jane Peake, College junior; Mary Cheney, College junior; Francis Perkins, College senior; Edith Ann Fleming, College junior; Rosemary Utterback, College senior; Alice McDonnell, College junior; and Lois Wilson, College junior.
The cast for the all girl play, which has tentatively been named "Valor Stood Beside Them," has been chosen, Professor Allen Crafton, writer and director of the play, said today. The play will be given two nights, March 30 and 31.
Professor Crafton added that the offer of a $10 prize for a suitable name for the play is still being offered.
Japanese Attempt Retaliation In Air
Washington, (INS) — A warning by Secretary of War Stimson that Japanese air power is growing in the Southwest Pacific was followed closely today by Navy announcements of an air battle over Guadalcanal in which US pilots shot down four of 22 raiding dive-bomber and Zero fighter planes.
It was the largest force of enemy planes to venture over Guadalcanal for months, and indicated that the Japanese were striking back in retaliation for the terrific pounding their bases have received recently at the hands of America's growing South Pacific air force.

Humane Society of Missouri officials considered the possibility of sending the dog to Geiger field, Spokane, Wash., where Johnson is stationed in an effort to end Streaky's grief.
Johnson entered the army last December, but was able to visit his home in suburban Kirkwood on weekend leaves, and Streaky was happy. Last month, Johnson was transferred to Spokane, and Streaky has missed him so much that he has refused to eat substantial food for the past week.
St. Louis, (INS) — Streaky, a brown terrier, continued grieving over being separated from his master, Arnold E. Johnson who is in the army.
Humane Society officials said tests show the dog is suffering from grief, and they are convinced that nothing will revive Streaky's interest in life again until he is with his master.

Her student audience would such pieces as the splendid an "Roman Sketches" (Charles 'n Elves) (Ernest Richard Kroo-ger). Miss Orcutt handled each number with such finesse that only personal taste could place the enjoyment of one above another. Premiere of Preyer's Composition
Miss Orcutt's playing of "Three Preludes" by Robert Palmer, young composer of the faculty of the School of Fine Arts, also received a splendid reception. Of the three preludes the first two, which were whimsical and nostalgic, respectively, were probably better understood and liked than the last more dramatic, energetic prelude.
High honors go to both Miss Orcutt and Carl A. Preyer, professor- meritus of the piano faculty, for the successful premiere performance of Mr. Preyer's "Theme with Variations and Fugue." A melodic piece of great beauty, it was begun by Mr. Preyer at Green Mountain Falls, Colorado, in the summer of 1941 and completed the following winter in Lawrence.

Audience enthusiasm rose to a high pitch over "Lill' David Play on Yo' Harp" and "Cowboy Break-down," two typical American numbers, by Edward Collins, a former teacher of Miss Orcutt's. Along the same line was "Diversion No. IV in G Major" John Alden Carpenter), a fast number, attractive because of its element of mild jazz. "Dance of the Elves" was a delightful forest sketch played by Miss Orcutt.

Fire Damages Patee Movie Theater
Fire discovered at 7:29 o'clock this morning did extensive damage to the Patee theatre at 828 Massachusetts street.
Starting in the floor in the balcony, the flames had spread to the ceiling and swept to the back of the room to the projection booth which did not ignite. Many of the seats were destroyed and because of the difficulty in replacing them, it may be impossible to reopen the theatre.
Firemen lay the cause of the fire to a burning cigarette which evidently was dropped on the floor last night by a patron.
The Patee theatre, oldest movie house west of the Mississippi, was started in 1905 by Claire Patee, a Frenchman, who was associated with Edison in the motion picture industry.

ROTC Enters Rifle Contest
The University entry into the William Randolph Hearst national ROTC rifle competition has been sent to the service command headquarters in Omaha. The individual scores of the marksmen cannot be released until verified at Omaha, Lt. Col. Jack Gage, director of University marksmanship, reported.
The rules of the contest call for a five-man team, each firing only one target in the four positions. The University team finished their targets early this week and sent them to Omaha. The contest ended today, and the scores of each entry in the nation had to be at their respective service command headquarters.
The five men that fired in the contest were Frank B. Tyler, Dale N. Lingelbach, Edwin Crowley, Leonard Diehl, and Hillman Dickinson. The results will be released in about two weeks, said Colonel Gage, who is "confident that the team he entered will make a credible showing."
Total Mounts In Red Cross Contributions
Contributions on the campus reached a new high today as students and faculty members dug deeply into their pockets to swell the Red Cross fund this year the largest drive the University has staged. As the total continues to rise, Dr. F. C. Allen predicts donations will reach a mark well over the set goal
"Contributions received have been generous, and I feel sure that, when all donations have been received, we will have gone over the top in the biggest drive the University has staged." Dr. Allen, basketball coach and director of the drive at the University, said today.
Commends Navy
Dr. Allen especially commended the report from the navy showing a total of $593.98 given by the sailors on the campus. Division 6-M donated $36.93; Division 7-M gave $252.05; Division 8-M, $190.33; Division 9-M, $61.46; and officers and ships company and civilian employees, $53.21.
Special commendation is due Division 7, Platoon 3, who contributed an average of $2.80 per man. Dr. Allen said. The average pay of these men is $52 monthly.
Faculty donations have been generous. Dr. Allen stated, and their quota will be over the top, probably Additional Contributions
In addition to the list printed yesterday, the following organizations or groups have donated: Templin hall, $13.25; collection in Frank Strong hall, $7.59; in the Union building and in the library, $21.30;

Maurois Discusses Principle of Freedom
Referring to England as the bulwark of freedom, to France as its soldier, and to the United States as its conscience of freedom, Andre Maurois, noted author and lecturer, spoke to a crowd of about five hundred in Hoch auditorium last night on the common heritage of the three countries.
"Confidence of the United States in herself is equal to that of England in herself," Mr. Maurois declared, but he explained the difference by saying, "the confidence of England is in the present, but that of the United States is in the future." Differences in Feeling
The lecture was the last of this year's series of the Community Lecture course.
"France's contribution has been largely in military instead of political terms, because France has had to fight for her liberty," Mr. Maurois continued.

Academy Will Commemorate 75th Birthday
The seventy-fifth anniversary of the founding of the Kansas Academy of Science will be celebrated at the annual meeting of the Society to be held at the University in April, Dr. Raymond H. Wheeler, president of the organization and chairman of the department of psychology, announced today. Dr. Walter B. Sears, internationally known botanist and plant ecologist now on the staff of Oberlin College, Oberlin, Ohio, will be the chief speaker for the meeting.
The Kansas society is the oldest state academy of science in the country. There are twenty-five such organizations in the United States and the Sunflower group is fifth in number of memberships.
Plan Banquet
Membership in the Academy is composed of teachers of science in the universities, colleges and high schools of Kansas, and of laymen interested in scientific research of publishable merit, either in pure or applied science. There are approximately 600 members of the group, including 50 life members, 7 honorary and about 30 group memberships, the latter being composed of junior science groups affiliated with the Academy.
A special celebration at the 75th anniversary banquet on the evening of April 10, will feature some of the older life members of the Academy. Dr. Wheeler, retiring president of the society, will be the featured speaker on the subject "The Effect of Climatic Cycles on Civilization."

The Faculty Follies, an event which spelled hilarity for students and faculty alike last year, will be given sometime during April, Prof. Hilden Gibson, head of the committee in charge of the Follies, stated recently.
The actual date is being decided upon by committee members Prof. and Mrs. A. J. Mix, Dean Henry Werner, Prof. E. O. Stene, Prof. Calvin Vander Werf, and Professor Gibson.
Presented last year for the first time, the Follies was a new idea in entertainment for the University.

OPA To Cut A Week Off Next Coffee Rationing Period
Washington, (INS)—Federal Price Administrator Prentiss M. Brown boosted the nation's coffee rations yesterday 16 per cent by announcing that the next coffee period would be cut from six to five weeks.
Stamp No. 26 from War Ration Book 1, will purchase one pound of coffee between March 22 and April 25, the OPA said yesterday. Prior to this time, one stamp had to last six weeks.
"Coffee imports for February have exceeded estimates by more than 20 per cent, adding substantial amounts to previously depleted January inventorys of approximately 145-000,000 pounds." Brown explained in announcing the increase.
[The Price Administrator declared that the more liberal ration "exemplifies one of the basic principles of OPA policy—that of relaxing rationing restrictions wherever and just as soon as circumstances permit."]

Meat To Be Rationed Beginning March 28
Washington, (INS)—Rationing of meat—with each consumer getting 2 pounds per week "more or less" and rationing of cheese, butter, edible fats and oils, and canned fish, will begin at midnight March 28, the OPA announced today.
The red coupon of ration book two will be used by some 30,000,000 housewives in a long-expected ration program and the coupons will be interchangeable among the various products rationed. Thus a consumer may use his entire weekly ration upon meat or any other of the newly rationed commodities. Ration coupons will not be required for dining out, but supplies of the rationed foods in restaurants and hotels will be reduced about the same percentage as in private homes.

SHE'S A SENSATION
Chicago, (INS)—Another stronghold of men fell to the onrushing tide of woman power today as the Illinois Central Railroad installed two women as "flagmen" on suburban runs out of Chicago.
The female station callers and ticket punchers, both of Chicago, are Miss Marie Vonascho and Miss Marjorie Hickey. They had several day's tutelage under the guidance of veteran trainmen.
"The first time I called stations, everyone almost jumped out of their seats. But now they're getting used to hearing a woman's voice. We are doing a man's job."
Washington, (INS)—Maxim Litvinov, Russian ambassador to the United States, yesterday told United Nations diplomats gathered in Washington to observe the second anniversary of Lend-lease that the Soviet people were "fully aware of" and "deeply appreciated" the aid being furnished by this country to his homeland.
Said Miss Hickey;
Litvinov Says Russians Fully Aware of US Aid
He was a former resident of Jolliffe hall and graduated from the school of business in the spring of 1942.
Thus, the ranking spokesma this country, used the occasion to answer the criticism of the Soviet Union voiced in Moscow by Admiral William Standley, the American ambassador. Standley charged the Soviet Union with failure to tell its people of the full extent of help being furnished by the United States.

Roosevelt Speaks to Diplomats
President Roosevelt, in a message to the meeting staged to celebrate the second anniversary of lend-lease, said that promises by the United States to become the arsenal of democracy "have stood the test of time" and "given the lie" to claims of Germany and Japan that the present conflict would be a short, single front war.
Mr. Roosevelt said that American lend-lease and reciprocal aid from other nations "will contribute increasingly to the inevitable defeat of the Axis" and help to "forge the unity that will be required to make a just and lasting peace."
Litvinov said that one Russian flying squadron equipped with the vaunted Airacobras had shot down
Litvinov Praises Flyers
43 German planes with a loss of only three of its own aircraft. He also said that American B-25 bombers executed 380 combat flights without a single loss.
Diplomats of other Allied nations, including Dr. T. V. Soong, Chinese minister of foreign affairs, and Lord Halifax, the British ambassador to the United States, also gave brief talks at the meeting. Vice-President Wallace and Mr. Stettinius responded.
Dr. Soong pleaded for more aid to China. Then while Litvinov listened, the Chinese minister said that it was less difficult to get supplies into China than it was to move them to Russia over the Murmansk route across the North Atlantic.
China Asks For More Aid
"I would be less than frank if I say that China is satisfied with the amount of aid she has received from lend-lease," he stated.
"By normal peacetime standards, the India-China air route of course has its difficulties; but these difficulties are only a fraction of those met in maintaining the equally vital supply line to Murmansk.

Brown issued a statement in commenting on reports that racketeers posing as OPA officials had attempted in certain cities to seize stocks of canned foods by intimidating householders and that in one city an OPA agent had entered a home without permission to check upon a supposed failure to declare processed stocks.

Jayhawk jabberwock
HE'S OFTEN WRONG
Norris Anderson, sports editor of the Daily Nebraskan and rabid anti-Allen man, again gets off on the wrong foot in an effort to bait the Kansas basketball coach. This time Mr. Anderson comes up with an accusation that Allen deliberately pulled his men from the Creighton game to avoid a showdown with the Bluejays. And his evidence? Well, the missing men played against Kansas State two days later, and therefore must have been available for the Creighton contest.
What scribe Anderson misses, as writers so often do with long range criticism, is that nobody claimed the Jayhawkers withdrew from school prior to the Creighton game, at least not Phog Allen. However, faced with immediate induction into the armed forces the players had asked to be allowed to spend a short time before reporting with their parents.
Such a desire was natural, and any coach in the United States more interested in developing men than winning games would have granted such a request. Allen was faced with the choice of facing one of two teams without those stars—Kansas State or Creighton.
The Aggie game was a home game—the last opportunity for the Jayhawkers to display their ability before a home crowd. At stake was an undefeated conference season, making the Kansans one of three teams to have accomplished that trick in conference history. In the Creighton game at stake only was a bid to the NCAA playoffs—not as important as it sounds, since Kansas knew they would be unable to accept such a bid anyway with men leaving for the service before the tournament date.
Naturally Allen decided to allow his men to spend the days between the Missouri and Kansas State games with their parents. There was never any pretense that we know of that the men had withdrawn from school.
Anderson seems to believe that Allen was fearful of the results of a game between his Iron Five and the powerful Creighton aggregation, which is assinine. Allen has never in his career shown a tendency to pick easy spots for his men, but has on the other hand repeatedly scheduled the cream of the nation's basketball teams for opposition (Great Lakes, Fordham, St. Joseph's, Oklahoma A and M, etc.)
Then Norris wonders why Omaha scribes did not pan the Jayhawk tutor for not bringing along his stars. Perhaps, Norris, the answer is that they were acquainted with the facts of the case, which you definitely were not.

Allen Selects A Star-Studded Opponent Team
Dr. Forrest C. Allen, basketball coach, in announcing his all-opponent team today, has selected a team very representative of the best basketball talent displayed throughout the nation.
His star-studded first team consists of Senesky from St. Joseph's College in Philadelphia, Beisser of Creighton, Babich of Fordham, Tucker from Oklahoma, and Glamack from the Great Lakes service队.

The Racial Question. Students Favor Negro Participation In Big Six
A poll taken of students who would be most affected by Negro participation in Big Six athletics reveals an almost unanimous opinion that such a ruling should be adopted. Members of the track team, basketball squad, and Negroes were questioned.
Alan Houghton, College senior (track): "It doesn't matter to me one way or the other." $ \textcircled{*} $
Alan Houghton, College seni to me one way or the other, but it would certainly help the University's standing in athletics."
June Mack, College junior, (Negro): "I don't see why Negros should not be allowed to participate just because they are colored. If any student has ability he should be allowed to compete."
Russell Mount, pharmacy senior (track): "I think that it is pretty silly not to let Negroes compete. I don't see why any student should be denied the right to participate because of his race. Race should have no bearing on it—some of the greatest athletes have been colored. Why should our school discriminate? And it hurts the squad not to have Roger Whitworth on it."
Richard Walker, education senior, (Negro): "I think Negroes should be allowed participation because in the first place, there have been several Negroes on the campus in the past five or six years who would have made track stars and great basketball players, and would have built up KU athletics. In the second place they should have the right to participate because Negroes pay their fees and bills like other students do."
Valle Schloesser, engineering senior, (track): "I see no reason why Negroes shouldn't participate. I'm all for it."
Gene Roberts, College freshman (track): "It's all right with me if Negroes are allowed to participate, but it will break up the Big Six. Oklahoma and Missouri are former slave states and their sentiment is definitely against Negro participation. It's OK as far as the competitors go, though."
Paul Turner, education junior, (track): "We're all Americans, why shouldn't Negroes have the same opportunities as whites."
Bill Cole, business senior, (track): "I am heartily in favor of Negro participation. Negroes have too few opportunities as it is, and this is one place where they should be given equal rights with the whites."
Frank Stannard, engineering sophomore, (track): "I'm for Negro participation because I can see no reason against it."

Farm Labor Bill Doesn't Reach House
Washington, (INS) — Threatened with revolt by members seeking to revamp the whole program, the house appropriations committee today sent a $26,000,000 farm labor appropriation bill back to a subcommittee for further hearings instead of reporting it to the house as had been planned.
Convening to approve the measure as drafted by the agriculture appropriations subcommittee, the membership was confronted with a motion by Rep. Dirksen (R) Ill., to put the recruitment of farm labor entirely unde the agricultural extension service. Recommittment was ordered, apparently to avert a showdown vote on this motion, and secretary of agriculture Wickard's request for $65,000,000 to get the program under way was again deferred.

Liberal Arts Education Needs Revision To Prepare Students For Life
Editor's note: This original article was contributed by Prof. Seba Eldridge, acting head of the sociology department.
By SEBA ELDRIDGE
The draft of college youth has highlighted a long-standing perplexity about liberal education—what it really is, and what value it may have. This perplexity is reflected in a recent discussion by Dr. Alexander Meikeljohn, in "The New Republic." Jan. 25, 1943. He concedes that the army is right in drafting college men, with no deferments for those engaged in ordinary non-technical studies, but he proposes an immense development of liberal education following the war, making it available to all with the necessary talents by means of federal subsidies.
At the same time he deplores the failure of liberal education to do what was expected of it, especially its failure to prevent or at least prepare for the war. This he puts down to want of purpose and direction. Yet all he suggests by way of improvement is setting up as objectives "an intelligent loyalty to our institutions," and "the liberal understanding which is needed by the citizens of a democratic society."
This is of a piece with much contemporary discussion of the liberal colleges. It is commonly contended that they should educate "the whole man," should prepare pupils for living, train them to think, but at the same time avoid anything much that smacks of technology. All this in face of the fact that virtually all college students (girls included) are expected by the community to follow a vocation of some sort, that only a very small percentage (those working later for advanced degrees) will have an opportunity for systematic vocational training after college days are over, and, moreover, that the absorbing interests of students, so far as the future is concerned, center in jobs and marriage. Most colleges do, however, offer a good deal of preparation for vocational careers (including homemaking), often without admitting or even intending it.
But it is in respect to the great non-vocational interests of society that the liberal arts college has failed most seriously. In the long run these interests are as important as vocational ones. Included in them are the needs of consumers, of laymen as against professionals—in short, the interests of all those whom specialists and producers in general are presumed to serve. One such interest lies in the practice of citizenship, which is nothing less than the practice of democracy itself. For whatever else political democracy means, its essence is the ultimate control of public policy by the layman, not by the professional politician.
NEEDS TO BE MET
Any realistic appraisal of the situation will indicate that, in our kind of society, college youth need these forms of educational service and, moreover, that the welfare of the community demands that these needs be met:
(1) Guidance in the choice of a vocation and a broad preparation for the vocation chosen, where training on the collegiate level is involved.

(2) Preparation for marriage and homemaking. While this is indispensable for girls, the great majority of whom will be housewives, it is important for boys, too, since the quality of family life depends in no small measure on the role assumed by the husband and father. The sciences and technologies contributory to homemaking have now reached a stage where it can be a profession of a very high order. Nothing is more important where taste and capacity permit it.
(3) Education for citizenship. The functions of the state have now become so crucial, the problems involved so numerous and complex that participation in public affairs must become a major concern of the citizen if we are to preserve, much less perfect, our democratic institutions. Keeping even moderately informed on public issues requires much study, but effective citizenship is no less a matter of action. Such action has its technology and those with the capacity for it—above all, those with gifts of leadership—need a thorough grounding in it.
(4) Discipline in good reading and listening habits, paticularly in respect to newspapers, periodicals, and radio programs. Not that books are less important, but rather that newspaper, periodical, and radio are indispensable means of keeping up with current events, which is a sine qua non of effective participation in public affairs and, for that matter, in other vital interests.

(5) Development of a satisfying hobby or avocation, especially where one's vocation may not offer an adequate outlet for one's creative interests and capacities. While specific needs

Dear Josie:
Yours of the 5th instance states that there is a dearth of men on the campus. In reply I wish to state that: you ain't seen nothing yet. There hasn't been a man between the ages of 18 and 35 in the plant for so long I wouldn't know what one looks like if I didn't get a glimpse of the foreman as he breezes by every day. He has to spread himself around.
There are plenty of pants here but it isn't the same, somehow. Overalls are plentiful, but no men. Yours of the 5th instance says it makes you very sad to see the men leaving. Josie-I don't even get to see any men leave! I must get a grip on myself. That way madness lies.
I enjoyed yours of the 5th instance very much, especially the part about the men.
I hardly know what to do with myself of nights. You remember how I used to be—just a social butterfly. Now I've been pinned up to the wall like a withered flower. Josie, I'm too young and beautiful to die such a dreary death! But I mustn't think of that, for that way madness lies.
Lately I've taken to drink, trying to drown my sorrows. Josie, Gosh, but I hate the stuff. Vile, pale liquid, insipid and degrading. Josie, if I ever stare a tea leaf in the face again, I'll scream.
How can we women go on, Josie. It isn't human to live day after day, day after day, day after day without men—Men—MEN! But I must get hold of myself. That way madness lies.
Anxiously awaiting your reply to mine of the 12th instance, I remain.
You have it right, Josie. We women are making the sacrifices.
Sincerely yours,
P. S. I have been promoted to a secretarial position and am attending night school to try to improve myself.

(6) Such assistance as may be possible in discipline of the emotions, corrections faults of disposition, and enrichment or personal relationships. Needs here are perhaps most acute for those who have rejected the older forms of religious discipline along with the underlying creeds.
under this head may not emerge until a later period, college work can in various ways anticipate and prepare for them.
This list is now exhaustive, but it has the merit of indicating life situations which will confront most college graduates sooner or later and which they will deal with more successfully if they have had a realistic preparation for them. While this discussion is concerned primarily with the liberal arts colleges, the analysis also applies, with due qualifications, to professional schools on the undergraduate level. Three Factorials
Three Essentials
But what is "realistic preparation?" Three things are essential: (1) the stimulation of interest, the development of a "drive" in the given direction such as will carry over into the post-college period and motivate continued activity in that area (2) the growth of usable knowledge of understanding and insight essential to successful action; (3) technical skills utilized in such action Each of these is best developed in conjunction with the others and indeed cannot develop very far on any other basis. One doesn't really possess knowledge unless one is able to use it; ability to use comes only with practice in the process; and interest in turn grows with the mastery and utilization of knowledge. Special attention should be directed to the fact that every major field above listed has its technology. Family life has, citizenship has, and so have management of the emotions and all the others. It is very necessary to understand that any technology can be mastered only by practice. Preparation for citizenship by means of books, lectures, discussions, examinations, and term papers in social science courses—without a corresponding practice of technology-is about as absurd as would be preparation for medicine solely by reading and discussing medical treatises, or an attempt to learn swimming by taking a correspondence course in the subject. Three Main Defects
Three Main Defects
Allowing for exceptions and qualifications, the typical liberal arts college is gravely defective on three principal counts. First, it does not definitely orient its students toward problems, responsibilities, opportunities, life situations that will confront them after graduation. The work is not goal-centered, is wanting in purpose and direction, so far at least as these vital needs are concerned. The college goes in, so its apologists claim, for a broad, liberal education; but such fragmentary evidence as we have indicates that this kind of education counts for comparatively little in later life, except as it is carried forward and put to the test of practice in a vocation. To cite one example, the total enrollment of college students in a normal year just about equals the combined circulations of the two leading national news weeklies and the two liberal journals of opinion (also weeklies), one of which at least is considered indispensable by almost any one who is not illiterate in social, economic, and political matters. Evidently, social studies on the college level, for all their emphasis on reading materials, produce good reading habits in only a small fraction of the students.

Proved By Investigations
This bit of evidence is in line with the findings of painstaking investigations of ex-college students. The Minnesota study of 951 young people at the ages of 25 and 34, representing the four largest colleges of the University, resulted in the following (among other) conclusions:
Th
These young people were not much concerned about philosophy or religion, and they were content with this lack of concern. Their leisure time activities were almost entirely passive . . . Our analysis showed that

(continued from page six)
many of the activities required by their jobs were those for which they had received no training at the University. We found many of these young adults unconcerned about social, governmental, and economic developments that might affect their jobs . . . There were many inconsistencies between their expressions of interest in socio-civic affairs and their social behavior. They were interested in broad national problems but not in specific attempts at solutions. They had little interest in community affairs. They said they wanted more reliable sources of information but they subscribed to biased magazines. (C. Robert Pace, They Went to College, Minneapolis, 1941; quoted in A.A.U.P. Bulletin, April, 1942.)
Students with definite goals can get a good deal of relevant guidance and instruction in many departments of a liberal arts college. This is true in the main, however, only of vocational goals and of departments offering some training in technology as well as "principles" (such as ordinary physics, chemistry, and biology departments, as well as many home economics and journalism departments).
Second, and closely related to the first defect, an enormous amount of college instruction centers in books, lectures, and examinations or tests putting a premium on rote learning or at best some comprehension of reading and lecture materials. Students are treated to the symbols of experience without having enough of the experience itself to make the symbols meaningful. The chief sinners are the humanities and the social sciences'. Typically, the student of such subjects has little laboratory or field-work experience, little or no practice in technological applications, and all too often no opportunity of mastering even the symbolic materials by doing something creative with them, such as independent work on a relevant problem
Moreover, the subject - matter taught is what interests the instructor as a professional, although only a tiny percentage of the students will become professional workers in as field. Sociologists, for example, commonly teach as if all their students meant to be sociologists, whereas what the students need, in conjunction with sociological "principles," is a thorough grounding in community work, in the techniques of participating in public affairs, so that they will learn from experience how to practice citizenship and develop the drive for it after as well as during college days.
Third, colleges do not deal with their students much as individuals. There are some promising exceptions, notably the intensive counseling services being developed in a few institutions. But the great majority of college students are now handled en masse for the most part, and many of them go through college without ever being well-known as individuals, by either instructors or administrators. Yet, when the college addresses itself to truly realistic education, conceived in terms of life needs, a thorough knowledge of each student will be absolutely essential. Sound guidance of the student in any of the six areas specified above designed to identify personality traits and problems—in short, on learning as much about the student's possibilities, limitations.
and needs as it is possible to discover.
Lack of Understanding
These shortcomings of the college reflect deep-seated mores and traditions of American life. We reverence the book and the lecture as sources of knowledge, but do not yet understand that goal-centered action is an essential phase of the learning process. Fundamentally, social organization revolves around the family and the occupation. As a people we have espoused a getting-and-spending philosophy of life—getting as much money as possible somehow and spending it on necessities, comforts, and satisfactions money will command. A "high" standard of living—meaning an expensive one—is our ideal of success
All the finer values of human life elude this approach. So do sharing in the responsibilities of a democratic society, the growth of understanding and sympathy, the appreciation of beauty in nature and the arts, even the finer kind of family life itself. These values are not purchasable; they must be worked for on their own account if we are to possess them.
Our lopsided scheme of life needs attacking from two sides. The non-pecuniary, non-competitive values now so neglected must become the objectives of new forms of association in the adult community. There are already some promising beginnings in this direction. The colleges in turn can make their contribution by equipping their students to participate, and to take the lead, in this movement. Preparation for a vocation and for family life can be combined with the grounding of the student in the great non-vocational interests of society, thus giving him a broad liberal education that not only teaches him to think but mobilizes him for action.
Weekly Fine Arts Recital Presented
Fine arts students presented voice, piano, and ensemble numbers in their weekly recital yesterday afternoon in Fraser theater.
The program was as follows: Piano solo, "Mazurka" (Dubussy) by Wayne Patterson, sophomore; two voice solos, "Roses Softly Blooming" (Sphr) by Maurine Breitenbach, freshman, and "Across the Hills" (Rummel) and "The Lark now leaves his wat'ry nest" (Parker) by Arleene Nickels, sophomore. Helen Colburn, senior, sang "Und ob die Wolke," from "Der Freischutz" (Weber).
An ensemble composed of Sereapta Pierpont, junior, first violin; Doris Turney, sophomore, second violin; Professor Waldemar Geltch, viola; and Betty King, junior, cello, played "String Quartet in C," known as "Gregorian Quartet (David Stanley Smith)."

Alien Is Grateful; Gives Bond
St. Louis, (INS)—Collector of Internal Revenue Robert E. Hannegan disclosed yesterday that a man who did not have to pay an income tax had sent to the treasury a $25 war bond because he was grateful for the privilege of being in the United States.
The man was identified as Eugene Doerlich of St. Louis who was born in Germany and is an applicant for American citizenship.
In a letter, Doerlich wrote:
"I do not have to pay an income tax this year. Nevertheless, in gratitude for being in the United States I beg you to return for me one war bond to the Treasury Department."
The bond will go into the treasury's special war effort fund.

Welles Explains Soviet Criticism
Washington, (INS)—Acting Secretary of State Summer Welles yesterday disclosed that American Ambassador William H. Standley has accepted full personal responsibility for his recent criticism of the Soviet government in connection with American aid to that country.
Welles told a press conference Admiral Standley has informed the State department he clearly realizes he was speaking in his personal capacity and not for this government when he charged in Moscow that the Soviets were withholding from the Russian people the full facts concerning American aid.
Announcing that an official report of Admiral Standley's remarks have now been received, Welles said they do not differ in any essential detail from the press report.
Welles declined to state whether any consideration is given to the possible recall of Admiral Standley,
Navy Reports Two Smashing Attacks On Japs in Pacific
Washington, (INS)—Two smashing attacks against Japanese buildings and installations at Kiska and Solomon were reported by the navy.
Apparently aided by rare good weather American planes in the north Pacific struck twice on March 10 at Kiska damaging anti aircraft and three buildings in the camp area.
Air Medals Awarded for Service in Pacific Area
Washington, (INS) — The War Department today announced the awarding of the air medal to 27 members of the U.S. army air forces for meritorious service in aerial flights in the Southwest Pacific area. The awards included:
Nazis Threaten Kharkov Again
Capt. Carey L. O'Bryan, Topka, Kan.; First Lieut. Rex E. Lewis, Jackson, Mo.; Staff Sgt. Donald L. Kerns, Hayti, Mo.; First Lieut. Rayburn A. Wilks, Hayti, Mo.; Staff Sgt. Stanley F: Marek, St. Joseph, Mo.; Second Lieut. Carl H. Houseworth, Harveyville, Kan.
By International News Service German troops were reported streaming into the streets of Kharkov for the third time today and two possibilities emerged as the next great chapter of the Russo-German war.
One—the loss of Kharkov would be a major disaster for the Russian cause and would once again open up the Nazi threat to the Caucasus. The other was that Stalin may be attempting to draw the Germans into a rap and annihilate Hitler's vast new army of 375,000 men in the streets of Kharkov just as another huge force was ground to dust and blood at Stalingrad.
With a new RAF raid on Stuttgart and futile thrusts by air forces* in Tunisia the only other new important developments of the day, the entire war news centered around the Kharkov battle and the democratic world waited with anxiety the outcome.
ACADEMY WILL---secretary; and F. W. Albertson,
Hays, treasurer.
(continued from page one) islature made the Academy of Science a division of the department of agriculture of Kansas, and until two years ago, an annual appropriation was made, chiefly for the purpose of publishing the annual transactions of the Academy, containing scientific papers read at sectional and regular meetings of the society throughout the state. Because the Academy has been largely responsible for stimulating industrial research aimed at exploitation of the state's natural resources, a vigorous effort is being made to restore the annual legislative appropriation which was discontinued two years ago.
Receives Exchanges
The state of Kansas, through the Academy of Science, receives more than 700 scientific exchanges from all parts of the world, actual value of which is many times greater than the amount of the annual legislative appropriation.
Officers of the group, in addition to President Wheeler are: H. A. Zinser, Hays, president-elect; L. D. Bushness, Manhattan, vice-president; John C. Frazier, Manhattan,
MAUROIS DISCUSSES----

"In the motto of my France," Mr. Maurois illustrated, "England would represent Liberty; France, Equality; and the United States, Fraternity." He suggested that "after the victory of the United States in this war, one of the peace aims should be to grant a bill of rights to every nation of the world."
Up To Americans
He concluded by saying that whether the Allies were strong enough to win was "up to the American people, but if we stand firm and tenacious of purpose, we will win."
Mr. Maurois is compiling a history of the United States called "Miracle of America" to be published at the end of this year or the beginning of next year.

Forensic Meet Will Be Here March 25-27
The annual Missouri Valley forensic meet will be conducted here March 25, 26, and 27. The meet was originally planned to be held at Kansas State College, but because of the problems created by the 500 Aviation Reserve trainees, it was shifted to Lawrence.
The meet features three types of speaking: debate, oratory, and extemporaneous speaking. Cash prizes amounting to $70 will be given in the oratory and extemporaneous speaking contests. No prize will be given for debate.
May Select Topics
The speaker can select any topic in the oratory contest, but in extemporaneous speaking the speaker will be given a topic having to do with the general subject "Post War Organization" an hour and a half before the speech is to be given. The final speech is to be seven minutes in length.
The subject for debate is: "Resolved: That Congress should pass legislation providing for the conscription of all men and women between the ages of 18 and 64 for armed service, agriculture, and industry."

VagabondReminisces On Latin Summers
TOMMY AND RALPH WESTER

Max and Boli Marquez are seen bulling with Bob Humphrey (center). The Latins have a word for it.
A dinner course in "How to Speak Spanish" is running at Battenfeld hall these days. Instructors are Max and "Boli" Marquez, University students from Panama, and Bob Humphrey, who recently moved into the scholarship dormitory. Humphrey has spent two summers hitch-hiking and sailing on tramp steamers to South and Latin America. The three converse closest intimately in Spanish.at $ ^{*} $
almost entirely in Spanish at the table, using English only to interpret their conversation to less crudite brethren.
Humphrey has been the victim of a wanderlust since he was 15, when he and some friends "rode the rods" to the Canadian border.
"It was cold and we got home-sick," he admits. The next two summers he spent in military camps. About his travels to the south, he is quite reticent and it is only by dint of intensive questioning that he will talk about them.
Shipped As A Seaman
In 1941 he shipped as a seaman on a tramp steamer in the Caribbean, leaving from New Orleans. The crew was "pretty tough," he says, and the boatswain stabbed the steward during a trivial argument. He and a boy from Brooklyn were the only Americans board the boat.
"Every one of the crew, except two Englishmen, was trying to become a citizen of the United States," he remarked. Conditions in American islands and on American ships are always much better and healthier than any others, even British, he revealed.
Becoming ill from ptomaine poisoning, he was put ashore in Port-au-Spain, on the British island of Trinidad, without any clothing, money, or papers. After being discharged from a hospital, he spent a month on the island waiting for his pay from the steamship company.

he's well chaperoned." Humphrey admits. "You sit in the parlor and talk to her parents and brothers and sisters about the United States. That's all they want to hear about."
The only way to escape the chaperoning, he found, was to rent a bicycle and take the girl riding in the afternoon. He still writes to friends he made on the island.
toms, to Humphrey, was the evening promenade of young persons around the town square.
During that winter, spent as a sophomore in St. Joseph, Mo., junior college, Humphrey tried his hand at boxing. He won the Golden Gloves lightweight championship of northwest Missouri and sometimes on the campus he wears a jacket given him for being "champion of champions" and most popular contestant. Hitch Hilked To Movies
Last summer he and a buddy hitch-hiked to Mexico and spent almost two months in Monterrey, living in a Mexican home, speaking Spanish, and meticulously avoiding Americans. They borrowed tuxedos from Mexican boys and attended local dances and otherwise lived in a typical Mexican way.
Hitch-Hiked To Mexico
"All the girls go around one way and the boys walk around in the opposite direction. A smile here and a nod there and you can strike up an acquaintance with the most respectable girls in the community. But when you take them home you part at least a block from their home. Not until a couple is formally afflianced does the boy ever go to the girl's home."
One of the most interesting cus-
The most charming characteristic of the Mexican people is their light-heartedness, according to Humphrey. They dance and sing every evening, and everyone plays an instrument, he states.
Mexicans Are Lighthearted
This summer Humphrey plans to remain in school since he is enlisted in the marine officers' reserve, but he is regretful that he won't be able to return to Mexico.
Mexican rates of exchange are very favorable and if the American tourist stays away from tourist hotels he can live very cheaply, Humphrey says. Meals in the best Mexican restaurants cost from 15 to 20 cents, with fresh fruits the chief dishes. Money for the boys' trip was earned by working a month in a hotel in El Paso, Texas. They saved $50 apiece, which became 250 Mexican dollars when exchanged.
"Man, it was wonderful," he exclaims.
Poetry Judges Are Selected
Dr. John W. Ashton, of the department of English, Maurice Hatch, formerly of Utica, and Paul Engle, lecturer on poetry at the University of Iowa, will judge poetry submitted in the William Herbert Carruth Memorial Prize contest, recently announced Miss Helen Rhoda Hoopes and Miss Rose Morgan, who are in charge of arrangements.

Curiosity Did It... Joy Howland to Report To New York for SPARs
Proving an added source of excitement to one who has never been outside the area of the Middle West. the order to report to Hunter College, which is situated just off Fifth Avenue in New York City gives Joy an additional reason to rejoice in the impulse of curiosity which led her to enlist in this division of the navy.
"Semper Paratus—Always Ready," better known as the SPARs, voiced its first call at the University last week when Joy Howland, College sophomore, received orders to report to New York City on March 25.
"I really don't know why I did it," she explains, "except that curiosity started me on an inquiry into the WAVEs, and one thing led to another, and—well, here I am in the SPARs."
After passing rigid physical, mental, and psychological examinations, Joy was sworn into the SPARs exactly one month after her first application was made, and following five weeks basic training at Hunter College, she hopes to be placed in the journalistic or public relations department where her university training on the Daily Kansan will prove useful.
Radiating excitement and enthusiasm, Joy reveals that she has been granted the same scholastic concessions by the University as the men who were called to the armed forces, and despite the fact that SPARs are allowed to marry into the navy, she laughingly assures her friends that nothing will prevent her return to the University to complete her education.
Required to remain in classes until Tuesday before she leaves. You plans to be at her home in Atwood until the week-end when she will return to the University and will leave from here for New York City.
Joy Enthusiastic Over SPARs

Four Major Powers Must Cooperate-Eden
"It means that we cannot adopt the same attitude we did the last time. To take Germany as an example, we don't want a new government set up there and then merely trust to luck."
Washington, (INS) — Cooperation between U.S., Great Britain, Soviet Russia, and China is “pretty well indispensible” if the world is to have lasting peace after this war, British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden said yesterday.
In emphasizing necessity of "understanding between the four major powers," Eden stated:
"The important thing, it seems to me, is that we have got to take precautionary measures this time to make sure that Germany and Japan are never again to start another war.

Jayhawk Jabberwock

PHOG MAKES A SUGGESTION
Phog Allen, as usual, gets in what should be the last word in the argument over the Creighton affair by inquiring why Norris Anderson, Daily Nebraskan sports editor, if he is really so interested in the welfare of the Bluejays, doesn't go to work on a problem which the Creighton supporters have been working on for years—the placing of the Nebraska Cornhuskers on the Creighton schedule.
Allen today released a letter which he had written to Eddie Hickey, Creighton coach, prior to the Bluejay game at Omaha in which he frankly stated: "I will bring a team up to play you but it will not be these stars (Those men who were to be called up by the ERC, and who therefore desired to visit with their parents.) I cannot insist that they do otherwise when their call to service is so close."
So skittish have the Cornhuskers been of their state rivals that at one point a Nebraska state legislator and Creighton fan introduced a bill to require Nebraska to schedule Creighton in sports. Still the cautious Cornhuskers however, have ovided the Bluejay powerhouse, thus escaping incidentally two automatic cage defeats each winter.
Allen offered as an alternative to forfeit the game, but Hickey preferred to play the weakened Kansas team since tickets had been sold for the game. Said Hickey: "We appreciate what you are doing. You are the only Big Six team we have been able to schedule, and you are willing to play us not once, but twice."
TO BALDWIN BY HORSE
It seems that Ray Evans not only missed the Creighton game, but also came very close to missing the Missouri contest—a game which would have undoubtedly been lost if he had not performed. Evans decided on the evening prior to the game to remain at home with his mother as long as possible before reporting to the army, and not to make the trip to Columbia. The following morning, however, he again changed his mind and headed for the station in the car of a friend. Auto trouble, however, caused him to miss the train.
- * * *
Allen in his Columbia hotel room received the following wire from Evans: "Missed train 5 minutes. Freshman car ran out of water on way to train. Alibi. Will be in Columbia tomorrow in time for game even if I have to ride horse. Tell fellows we will make it undefeated Big Six year. Love to all—Ray."
The horse-riding was in reference to a basketball incident in earlier Jaynawk history in which a cager named Wheeler missed his transportation to Baker for a game, hired a horse and rode to Baldwin, and then proceeded to push in eight field goals to win the contest.

Cessna Team Takes Squad Of Nine To Tournament
Wichita, March 13 — (Special) Coach Ray Piper and a squad of nine Cessna Bobcats left yesterday for Denver where they will compete in the national AAU championships which begin next week.
The nine men making the trip include Platt, Vandiver, Rankin, D. Smith, Welch, Wilhoite, and Schubert, all members of the Bobcat squad during the Naismith league season, plus two new additions—John Buescher, $ ^{*} $
new additions—John Buescher, Kansas sparkplug,and Harold Johnson, Kansas Wesleyan's high-scoring forward.
Piper indicated that there was a possibility of a lineup shift on the Cessna team so that Buescher could be given a starting position. Arrangements had been made for warmup games in Colorado Springs with the Martin Jewelers of that city.
Favorites at the Denver tournament will be the home team, and the Bartlesville Phillips Oilers. Darkhorse aggregations include the Wichita team, the University of Wyoming squad, and several Pacific Coast teams. Several members of the Cessna squad are veterans of competition in past AAU tournaments.

Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen's the toughest club for Drake to be defeated the other five times in regularly-scheduled Big Six conference play although Doctor Allen's Jayhawks also nipped the Sooners in a Big Six playoff game at Wichita in 1940.
Conversely, Drake's Sooner teams have given Kansas more difficulty than any other Jayhawk foe. Of the ten Big Six games the Jayhawks have lost the past five years, Oklahoma was the conquering team in five of the ten. In other words, one-half of all the conference defeats suffered by Kansas during that period were dropped to Oklahoma.

Chiapusso Sets Date For Piano Recital
After several postponements, the date for Prof. Jan Chiapusso's piano recital has been set for 8 o'clock Wednesday evening in Fraser hall, the School of Fine Art's office announced yesterday.
Because of an injury to a finger during the summer, Professor Chiapusso was forced to give up all his playing for several months, but he is now fully recovered. Born in Java of Dutch-Italian parentage, Professor Chiapusso received his musical education in Germany and Holland. He graduated with high honors from the Conservatory of Cologne and toured Europe in concert before coming to this country.
After arriving in America he spent several more years in concert touring this country and then was head piano teacher in a Chicago school of music. From 1932 to 1934 he was a visiting lecturer at the University of Chicago, and was brought by Dean D. M. Swarthout to the University as associate professor of piano in 1934.
In 1939 he was made a full professor. Besides teaching piano, Professor Chiapus directs classes in History of Music and Piano Repertoire.

Home-town Reporters Discuss Influence Of War on College
The influence of the present World War on college curriculums was stressed at a meeting of home-town correspondents, last week in the Journalism building.
The committee to plan a picnic on Friday, March 19, as announced by Harlan Cope, chairman of Statewide Activities, is as follows: Harlan Cope, chairman, Carl Sutton, Donna Jackson, and John Sells.
Stories of chances in the University curriculum to permit high school graduates to take up war courses were recommended by Fred Ellsworth, staff advisor, as possible college "top" stories in home-town papers.
Must Consult Advisers Soon
All freshmen and sophomore students in the College are expected to consult their advisers within the mid-semester advising period, says Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College. The four-day period is Thursday and Friday, March 18 and 19, and Monday and Tuesday, March 22 and 23.
Students may find the names of their advisers and the advisers' office hours for the four-day period posted on the bulletin board in the hall opposite the College office on the second floor of Frank Strong hall.
Reports will be mailed to the homes of students with unsatisfactory reports in more than 40 per cent of their work, or with reports showing as much as five hours of F. These reports are now being prepared in the College office and will be held until the end of the advising period.
The delay gives the student with such a record an opportunity to consult, his adviser and write his parents before the reports are received at home.
Juniors and seniors in the College will receive their unsatisfactory reports through the mail, Dean Ulmer said.

Extreme Opposition Can Be Expected To President's Social Security Plan
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's broad social security plan came as a distinct surprise to the American public—a pleasant surprise to the common man, but a much less pleasant surprise to other influential groups.
The plan, which would climax Roosevelt's ten-year crusade to improve the lot of the downtrodden and insecure, will certainly meet serious resistance within the halls of Congress. Odds see to be against its adoption, for a reversion to conservatism has been more than a little evident within those legislative confines during the past several weeks. Even on the day of its announcement newspapers headlined: "Congress Shows No Enthusiasm."
That headline was probably a gross understatement, for a bitter battle can be expected from the Hooverian Republican elements aligned with Southern Democrats, who have proved themselves such unfailing puppets of Northern manufacturers and Southern landholders who dominate Dixie. The George's, the Taft's, and the other conservatives are likely to scream that it is at present essential to turn all our attention toward aiding the man at the battlefield even at the cost of losing for him the gains of the past years on the home front.
Congress can be expected to press two arguments against the measure—both time-worn, but in the past they have proved to have a surprisingly strong appeal for the American mind. They are that (1) the measures would result in the loss of individual initiative; and (2) increased taxation upon those who could ill-afford it would be necessitated by the program.
The loss of initiative is an old argument, for the Americans on top seem eternally to worry about their less fortunate brethren's possible loss of character should they become partially dependent upon the state (and incidentally upon that "upper crust.") They shake their heads in pity for the man who accepts a government check rather than starve, branding him as a parasite. They never stop to wonder what the effects of want and hunger upon character can be.
For an example of the character-building effects of need they have only to look at Germany, where, following the first world war, a shortage of the material needs of life left Germans likewise short of the spiritual needs. Men became a thousand times more easily the prey to the ambitions and brutality of a single faction, than would well-fed men unharried by the fear of future starvation.
Perhaps T. V. Smith, recent lecturer here, had the best answer for those who warn against the "loss of initiative," when he declared that the time has come when this initiative must realize the furtherance of social measures, and must be internalized within us. Self reliance which is present only through necessity is a superficial thing which will desert one, anyway, when the real test comes along.
Taxes must as a necessity be sufficient to support such a program, but the American people would be the gainers in the long run, for the wiping out of social fear and the instilling of confidence in millions of Americans would in the long run increase American efficiency to the point where the added utility would be far greater than the cost. It would

be comforting to Americans, also, to see their money going into channels from which emerged obvious good after watching their funds for years be poured meaninglessly into Dies Committees, Smith committees, and other organizations which have themselves destroyed what usefullness they may have once had.
Lawrence has growing pains. And those growing pains take strange forms—drunken sailors reeling out of former student hangouts, ten-year-old children holding down man-sized jobs, defense workers living in trailers or cramped apartment houses, junior high school boys and girls roaming the streets at all hours of the night.
To double the population of a town the size of Lawrence in one year is to create problems the community apparently cannot cope with. Floods of defense workers pouring into Lawrence and contingents of sailors, marines, CPT being sent here for training have swollen the population and made congested and inadequate a formerly pleasant community.
(continued to page seven)
The same changes have occurred all over the country. In larger towns and cities, the influx has been absorbed; there has been room enough for workers to lead their own lives without becoming a burden to the community. On the other hand, in small Lawrence-sized towns, any great number of persons coming in would throw it off balance, make its facilities for housing, shopping, and entertainment in-

Meatless Tuesdays don't have to be dull: Imagine the feeling of several ATO's at dinner the other night when they found a gold fish swimming around in the pitcher of water from which they had been drinking. Bob Martindale looked sickest when the discovery was made. He had just finished three glasses. Martindale is being broadminded about the whole thing, however. With a bygones-are-bygones attitude he has now adopted the unfortunate fish. The scaly one's freshman sponsor, alone, is scheduled to suffer.
Crime doesn't pay: Fred Humphreys, Sig Alph, got tired of having his clothes tied in knots every commando period, so one day this week he locked up every last bit of clothing belonging to Dick Rosberg (the enemy) and made off with the locker key. As a result Rosberg was forced to walk across campus and straight into the Kappa house (where he waits tables) sans everything but one abbreviated pair of shorts. Sailors weren't alone in their whistled approval of the leg art thereby displayed.

Mr. Disney, here's your woman: Comes the time when hill authorities give an award for the best Bugs Bunny imitation, Mary Ann Gray, Delta Gamma, will be in the money. Mary Ann's success lies chiefly in her great ability to chomp carrots. When she combines this talent with an occasional "What's cooking, Doc?" and a distinctive movement of the ears, Bugs himself gets confused.

That was a year ago. Now in 1943, the glamour and the glitter has worn a bit thin, and some places expose ugliness and sordidness. Now, in one particular situation in our very midst, democracy and cooperation seem lacking. Some of us are shuting our eyes and minds to the problems concerning the Navy. The sailors in training here, who are fighting for us, who did not ask to come among us, are in need of hospitable entertainment.
What's The Answer?
A year ago in Lawrence, V for Victory signs were painted and posted on windows and doors. Families told other families about their men in the armed services. College women wore military pins on their sweaters and jackets. People were eager to do their part to help in bringing about an Allied victory; they were wishing that they could directly participate in the cause. Democracy, sacrifice, cooperation were symbols that each one thought they had in their hearts.
Liberty to the sailor means finding some sort of relaxation or entertainment—the best he can—downtown. No recreation center is provided for them; there is no socially approved method by which he can become acquainted with those of the opposite sex. A few attempts have been made to have private parties for them, but the result was unsatisfactory.

A sailor of the training school expressed his attitude saying, "The people seem to forget that we did not ask to come here. We're not in this war for ourselves, not to win it just for ourselves, but for them and all others who believe in liberty and democracy."

ings of the Machinest Mab Training School said that "as many military men as there are in this place, a USO or some sort of university entertainment is definitely needed. Dances or parties on Saturday night by the University would be a great aid. If the defense workers can receive accommodations, the military men should, too."

Both Houses Clear Slate Of Own Bills
Topeka, (INS) — With calendars cleared of their own measures, both houses of the Kansas Legislature took up the task of disposing of each others bills which must be acted upon before adjournment next Thursday.
The only must legislation remaining is contained in the appropriations measures, but several bills of outstanding importance are pending. Chief among them is the senate approved measure to place Kansas labor unions under strict state regulation and control.
Despite efforts of labor leaders to block the bill by offering to submit voluntarily to its major provisions, the stage was being set for an effort to push the proposal through to approval of the house. It may come up for final roll call vote the first of next week leaders said today.
Gov. Andrew Schoeppel had no statement to make today on the move of the labor leaders to halt enactment of the measure in the house.

Letters to the Editor

To the Editor,
It seems to me that we, here on the Hill, do not quite know what patriotism is—that is in all of its forms. While I was at my home in Emporia this weekend, I noticed an entirely different attitude toward the men in the armed services stationed there.
In Emporia there are 500 Army Air Corps cadets and they have been stationed there only a little over a week. Already the town is doing everything possible to entertain these cadets and make their stay in Emporia enjoyable. On Sunday everyone of these cadets, except those quarantined or for some other reason was unable to be out, was invited to some private home or sorority or fraternity house to dinner. William Allen White entertained 14 of them at his home; and they were not invited to eat and run—they spent the entire afternoon with the Whites. After talking with several of them I learned that this is the type of entertainment they enjoy, being able to go into private homes or sorority and fraternity houses and feel as part of the group. This home life is the one thing they see very little of while in the army or navy; and it is the one thing they yearn for—as does everyone who is away from home for any length of time.
So why don't we remember a little more often that these men who are stationed here on our campus are sacrificing everything for us; and perhaps we could do a few seemingly small things for them which would make their stay here considerably more enjoyable.
VIRGINIA GUNSOLLY
Emma Niedermeyer, College senior, said, "Why can't a USO be set up here with national funds as it is in other towns? Even if we don't have a USO, why can't the Community building be open so that the sailors could go there and have some sort of entertainment? The Navy men could take their dates and dance to a nickelodeon or play games. At the present time there is no way for the men to meet girls."
Marie Miller, assistant advisor to women, said, "I think that we aren't handling the situation very well. There should be an organized plan

The main difficulty in the University sponsoring entertainment for the sailors would be the lack of room. As far as the University is concerned, the men would be welcome to the affairs such as concerts and lectures."

MORALITY PROBLEM--at
One solution might be for Lawrence to make an effort to make the transient workers feel at home. People who lack the "belonging" feeling, don't care what they do, what happens to them. If they are jailed for some reason or other and the papers carry the story—so what? No one knows them, no one cares.
Sailors away from home, stationed in a town that can offer no place for recreation or entertainment but movies and places to drink—even if Kansas is a dry state—have the same "what - the - hell" attiude. When the Community building was closed through lack of funds, civic-minded citizens sighed, regretted it, and did nothing about getting the funds. Drunkenness increased 100 per cent when this one and only organized entertainment stopped, local naval officers declare.
While serious crime in Lawrence is at a minimum now—everybody is working and busy—juvenile delinquency is on the increase, the Lawrence chief of police' reports. Most people are making more money, and they don't know how to save or spend it properly. Children eight and ten years old are working at adult jobs, are kept working for hours after they should be in bed. Parents allow their children to go to midnight shows.

School girls from 12 to 16 years of age are becoming involved with sailors—and who's to blame? Not only the sailors. Here today, gone in four months, with a not-very-cheery future ahead of them, why not have all the fun you can while you can? Not only the girls. With parents away from home, no one to restrain you, and nothing to do for amusement, why not go with sailors? After all, they're brothers and sons of people just like your own family. The parents? Perhaps. But you can't blame parents for trying to do their patriotic duty and at the same time make more money than they've probably ever had before.
The real blame seems to fall on the community, which apparently has lost all sense of responsibility in providing something to relieve the situation. Lawrence officials did everything in their power to obtain a defense plant near their city, and they succeeded. In fact, they seem to have succeeded too well. It is now up to these same officials to provide a remedy, and a quick one, for the problems they have laid in their own laps and heretofore have chosen to ignore.

Navy Publishes Paper Micrometer
Around the first and fifteenth of every month when you see the sailors of the Training Station rushing home from mess in the Union building in double time—it's not a leave they're rushing for—it's the Micrometer.
The Micrometer, semi-mon the Naval Training Station, is th Maurice Roberts. Roberts not only writes the stories, edits them, attends to the circulation, but also cuts the stencil and runs the paper off the mimeograph.
Paper Announces Debut
The Micrometer in its first issue announced its debut thus: With this issue "NTS Micrometer", the new station paper of the Machinist's Mate training school, Kansas University hits the main gangway. After two weeks of scampering, scraping, and digging, the editorial staff, is now convinced that it can be done—and we "dood it". We hope our first edition meets the approval of all hands.
"As yet, the staff is incomplete and all hands, with any journalistic inclinations, are urged to step forth and volunteer their literary services. It is also desired to include cartoons from time to time in this paper, and anyone gifted in this line will be a welcome addition to the staff."
Faper A Morale Builder
The paper is for your enjoyment, for your convenience, and for your benefit. Those are our objectives, and only with your cooperation can we achieve them. We are open to any criticism, and we ask your suggestions. We want the Micrometer to be a morale builder, an entertainer, and a ready reference for all station activities.
The backbone of the paper is the editorial page. Roberts skillfully points out to the sailors means of improvement so that they may advance more rapidly in the Navy. One editorial head says "Salute sailor, salute!" Pointing out the impression that a smart salute makes to observers, Roberts said, "One of the most important things new recruits should remember is that the salute does not render anyone inferior. Actually, for an enlisted man not to salute when he should shows ignorance, and that in itself makes him inferior. So Salute Sailor—properly and smartly with both hands out of your pockets."
Editorial Warns Against Hoarding
In the same issue the Micrometer reminds "all officers, enlisted men, and their families to refrain from boarding or unnecessary purchasing of commodities which shortly will be sold on a rationed basis." The overpurchasing of commodities beyond normal daily needs is not only unpatriotic, but will seriously hamper the war effort, as food supplies are needed for feeding our increased armed forces."
Editorials do not fill the paper though. Sports, in which the navy does right well, have a page. Each division has a correspondent and their contributions fill a page. Some of the sailors contribute poems. And

then there are cryptic comments such as, "My father used to say, Son, never make love to a woman if you have something better to do. But, what the hell is better?"
"Bilge Burps" Column Filled
Items of that caliber fill the column, "Bilge Burps". And there are stories such as "That Nasty Ole Chief'll Git Yuh" that whisk sailors' cares away.
The Micrometer expects to add more reporters to its staff in the near future and the six-page semimonthly may soon expand.
School of Business Loses 28 Per Cent By Reservists' Call
Twenty-eight per cent of the total enrollment of the School of Business has been taken by the exodus of army reservists, Dean F. T. Stockton revealed yesterday.
Included in the loss of 55 men of the school were 20 called to the army air corps, 32 taken into the AERC, and three others inducted into other branches of the armed forces. Leaving in the School of Business 99 men and 40 women, this loss represents 36 per cent of the men enrolled at the beginning of the spring semester, Dean Stockton stated.
Of the remaining 99 men, however, nearly half are enlisted in some division of the naval reserve, the dean disclosed, assuring, as far as it is possible to predict, the opportunity for a substantial number tofinish the present semester.

Talks And Music Are Given At Art Banquet
Addresses of welcome by Chancellor Deane W. Malott and Dean Donald M. Swarthout, a musical program by University students, a humorous reading by Allen Crafton, professor of speech, and messages from prominent artists, composed a program given at the Art banquet Friday night.
Chancellor Malott stressed that art gives one an opportunity
Chancellor Malotts succeeds to enjoy his surroundings, because it provides more contact with the world in which one lives. Beauty is not an external thing but an appreciation within us," Chancellor Malotts said.
Art is playing a big part in the war, Dean Swarthout pointed out. Posters and cartoons have the power to create spirit in the American people. Art is very important in camouflage, Dean Swarthout said.
The musical program consisted of a trio, Ruth Prentice, Betty Ann Graffith, and Suzanne Schmidt, who sang "Three Little Maids From
School," from Gilbert and Sullivan; and vocal solos, "Honor Honor," and "A City Called Heaven," by Nadyne Brewer," "I'm Called Little Buttercup," by Betty Ann Griffith," "Tit Willow," from the Mikado, by Suzanne Schmidt, and "Now Sleeps the "Crimson Petal," and "Charming Chloe" by Ruth Prentice. Florence Richert and Max Hughes accompanied the numbers.
Professor Crafton gave a humorous reading on Kansas.

Legislature Grants Funds For Building
Topeka, (INS)—Sen. E. A. Briles, chairman of the ways and means committee this afternoon said $84,000 will be made immediately available to replace the KU Anatomy building recently destroyed by fire.
It has been necessary to amend an appropriation measure that has passed the senate and is in the house to provide the fund. Also it has been necessary to take the money out of the educational building fund that had been earmarked for the Emporia Teachers' College library and the KU Mineral Research building, but Senator Briles said these funds will be placed back in the building fund by a direct appropriation.
Military Science Included
Also on the bill was a provision to provide money to complete the military science buildings at KU and at Manhattan. $69,000 was allowed for the completion of KU's military science building. The bill will now go to the Governor for his signature.
Because of an inability to get equipment for Lindley hall at this time, the senate ways and means committee of the state legislature has approved the use of $50,000 from unused portions of the mill tax fund, plus other moneys that were previously appropriated but unused in constructing and equiping the hall, to reconstruct Haworth hall for use of the department of anatomy, it was made known today. The total available is to be $84,000.
Priorities Attainable
Priorities in completing the middle section of Haworth hall are obtainable. Whenever equipment for Lindley hall can be obtained, additional appropriations will be made, it is said.
Chiapusso To Give Recital in Fraser
Jan Chiapusso, concert pianist and professor of piano in the School of Fine Arts, will present works from Brahms, Beethoven, Chopin, and Debussy at his recital at 8 o'clock tomorrow evening in Fraser hall.

Four Debussy numbers will close his program. From this composer Prof. Chiapusso has chosen "Bells through the Leaves," "Goldfishes," "Soiree in Granada," and "The Isle of Joy."

Place Changed For Press Talk
A change in the speaking place of C. W. Wheeler, who will be on the campus tomorrow, has been announced by Prof. E. F. Beth, acting chairman of the department of journalism. At 2:30 p.m. Mr. Wheeler, president of the Kansas Press association, will speak in room 203 Fraser hall instead of room 102. Journalism building, as previously stated.
Mr. Wheeler will discuss his work as publicity chairman of the Kansas Republican party before journalism, sociology, and political science students at the 2:30 meeting, and will speak on war-time business problems of newspapers at 3:30 in room 107. Journalism building.
A dinner address is being sponsored by Theta Sigma Phi, journalism sorority, to be held at 6:15 p.m. at the Colonial Tea room. Tickets may be purchased from sorority members and any persons interested is invited to attend, according to Virginia Tieman, president of Theta Sigma Phi.

Councils Pass Constitution For One Body
Student government by one ruling body moved one step closer to completion last night as the Men's Student Council and the Women's Self-Governing Association unanimously passed in a joint meeting the proposed constitution for a unicameral system of government.
Only a few minor changes were made to the constitution as drawn up by the constitution committee. As the bill now stands, the unicameral government would provide for the election by proportional representation from districts of 16 school representatives, 10 group representatives, and two freshmen.
Two more steps are necessary for the changeover from two governing bodies to the single body. Vernon McKale, MSC president, said that the plan would be submitted to the vote of students in the near future, and that if it is passed, the final step of electing and installing the new council would follow.
The two councils are drawing up new bills that the new system would make necessary, said McKale, and is revising bills passed by joint sessions of the councils.
Clubs Will Discuss Post-War Questions
Opening their meeting to the entire student body, members of the International Relations club and the Pan American League will meet jointly at 8:30 Thursday evening in the Pine room of the union building to discuss a set of pertinent questions on post war organization sent out by The Pan-American League of Miami, Fla.
In announcing the joint session Lulli expressed his hope that a great number of students other than the regular members of the organization would be present in the Fine room Thursday evening. He said he considered the topic under discussion of widespread interest among the student body and undoubtedly one on which all would be anxious to join in discussion.
Antonio Lulli, president of the University's Pan-American League will act as chairman of the open meeting. W.W.Davis, advisor of the League, and H.B. Chubb, advisor of the International Relations club, will lead the discussion.
Lulli asked that regular members of the Pan-American League arrive at the Pine room at 8:15. A group picture of the organization will be taken at that time for the Jayhawker magazine.
Navy Asks V-7 Seniors to Report

Washington, INS—Paving the way for the coming Allied invasions of Europe the navy disclosed today that American, British, and Canadian officials have "reached complete agreement" on a policy to smash the Nazi U-boat menace in the Atlantic.
having issued simultaneously in Ottawa, London and Washington, the announcement came on the heels of Axis claims of U-boat successes that indicate that Hitler has begun his campaign offensive to cut United Nations' supply lines to the European and African supply lines.

ments because of the large number of V-7 members who are members of some specialized or technical training department. Approximately 45 University students are eligible for these voluntary enlistments and Laurence Woodruff, co-ordinator of military information, believes that approximately 20 students will be able to arrange their affairs so that they may report for duty April 29. The Board of Regents has ruled that graduating seniors will receive full credit if they finish 3/4 of this semester. Thus if the students remain in school until April 13, they can receive full credit, their degrees, and they may report for duty April 29.
The annual spring meeting of the Kansas Modern Language Association has been cancelled this year because of transportation and other difficulties caused by the war, Prof. W. H. Shoemaker, president of the association and chairman of the department of romance languages and literatures, said today.

Other cancellations include the Kansas chapter of the American Association of Teachers of Spanish, of which Prof. J. M. Osma of the romance language department is president; the meeting of the regional chapter of the American Association of Teachers of French; and the Cervantes Day celebration, which has been sponsored by the Spanish section of the department of romance languages and literatures for more than 20 years.

Australia Is In Danger Of Jap Attack--MacArthur
Allied Headquarters in Australia, (INS)—General Douglas MacArthur yesterday repeated his warning that Northern Australia is in danger of Japanese invasion.
Japanese strongholds within easy striking distance of Darwin and the northern territory are being reinforced, he declared
in a communique, and big new airfields capable of handling many hundreds of Japanese warplanes of all types are being constructed.
(Editor's note: The Australian radio, according to CBS, reported that "the enemy's plan, whatever it may be, is growing near to the operational stage . . . It is only prudent to assume that the idea behind this concentration may be offensive, and that new assaults against allied territory may be pending.")
While the new warning was interpreted much the same as his initial statement, which advised that the enemy was in a "position of readiness," in a broad perimeter surrounding Australia, today's release marked the first time that MacArthur had pinned his fears of new Japanese conquest plans to a specific area.
Japan Prepares For Attack
The newest warning cannot help but reflect the grave view taken by the high command at steadily increasing concentrations being assembled by the Japanese within a short distance of vital allied defense areas. Although some circles have taken the view that Japanese activity is purely defensive in nature, best informed quarters assert that the strength of troops, amount of war materials and the formidable tonnage of Japanese shipping being

used to bring to a new peak the power of Nipponese bases in this area precludes any interpretation except an offensive.
It is well known that the Japanese have long been desirous of obtaining a foothold on the Australian continent in order to divert attention from other areas where the Americans and Australians are waging brilliantly successful warfare. That this foothold was not gained a year ago was due only to the superb defensive tactics of American and Australian fighter pilots in the Darwin area—the same region where it recently was disclosed that Spitfires are now on guard against any suggestion of enemy expansion.
Jans Willing To Take Losses
But to the argument that the Japanese would have to sacrifice thousands of men and perhaps hundreds of planes in attempting to take Darwin or Port Moresby, competent circles counter with the assertion that the Japs know they must take one or the other if they are going to force a diversion to relieve their hard-hit bases; also, they realize that with Darwin or other bases in that area in their hands they could hold off fighting which must eventually take key strongholds from them in the Netherlands East Indies.
To the grimness of impressive Japanese massings in the northwestern and northeastern sectors must be added MacArthur's herculean supply task: New. Guinea must be supplied entirely by air or by sea from distant bases, while Darwin's defenses are predicated on a difficult and extremely long inland highway route or again by air.
The entire Harvard university one mile relay team has joined the army.
Army Releases Casualty List
Washington, (INS) — The war department today announced the names of 133 officers and men of the US Army killed in action in several theatres of warfare.
The casualties occurred in the Alaskan, Asiatics, European, North American, North African, South Pacific, and Southwest Pacific areas and in the Philippine Islands.
Sixty-one officers and enlisted men listed as killed in action in the Philippines were previously reported missing in action, the war department pointed out.

Wallace Urges More Sources Of Rubber
Washington, (INS) — Vice-President Henry A. Wallace said yesterday there was no prospect of synthetic rubber being produced as cheaply as natural rubber and voiced the belief that South America may be an important peace-time source of rubber.
He urged, however, that the United States have more than one source of rubber on which to depend in the future.
Wallace's ideas were explained as he disclosed his itinerary for a forthcoming good-will trip to Central and South America. He will leave this week by plane.
"I am sure those in Central and South America can furnish rubber to us at very reasonable prices—prices lower than there is any prospect producers of synthetic rubber can equal," said Wallace.

Three Seniors Give Recital In Fraser
Three public school music majors who were not required to give senior recitals blended their soprano voices in Fraser theater last night because they wanted to sing.
Dorothy Mae Nelson, June Hammett, and Mary Louise Belcher sang for a large crowd last night despite the fact that the recital was not required for Fine Arts students.
All three women are members of the University a cappella choir and students of Miss Irene Peabody, voice professor of the School of Fine Arts.
To begin their program the trio sang "Lift Thine Eyes" from "Eli-jah" (Mendelssohn) and "Whithe Runneth My Sweetheart" (Bartlett). Miss Belcher's numbers included "Ridente la Calma" (Mozart), "Voi che SAPete" from "Le Nozzo de Figuro" (Mozart), "When I was Seventeen" (Swedish), "Night Is Falling" (Haydn), and "Caro Nome" from "Rigoleto" (Verdi).
Miss Hammett then sang "Deep Hidden in My Heart" and "Revery" (Arenskyn, "Ah! Twine No Blos-soms" (Gliere), "Song of the Little Fish" (Arenskyn), and "All Soul's Day" and "To You" (Strauss).

Henry Requests
--by Don Keown
Jayhawk abberwock
PERHAPS TOO UNOBTRUSIVE
The venerable Gwinn Henry stated in December of 1938 upon being appointed University head football coach that his principle efforts would be to gain the good will of alumni throughout the state, the confidence of the football players, and the support of the students in obtaining new football material.
However, it was in these very departments that Henry probably encountered the greatest trouble. Everybody liked the scholarly mentor; alumni, however, were not sufficiently effected to cause them to devote any real time and trouble to his cause, players played hard but were not inspired on the field, and student support at times was only a semi-automatic response.
Henry was solidly grounded in basic coaching technique, and in the employment of gridiron fundamentals. He even had a flare for the use of the wide-open style of play which is usually a crowd and team pleaser. In short his difficulty was, not in producing with what material he had on hand for he did as good a job as any man could along that line, but in attracting football talent. That phase of football has become as important to the coach as the actual work of grooming team material.
W. W. Davis, chairman of the Athletic Board, described Henry in 1937 after the former New Mexico mentor had signed his Jayhawk contract as athletic director as "a fine gentleman, unobtrusive, and able." Unfortunately, high school football stars preferred to perform under less unobtrusive gentlemen such as Missouri's Don Faurot—although it would be unfair to Henry to entirely overlook the part played by higher subsidizations offered by rivals, and by the half-hearted attempts on his behalf by Jayhawk alumni.
Henry's record in three years with the Jayhawks consisted of nine victories, 27 defeats, as compared with the 24 wins, 31 defeats, and eight ties compiled by the man he succeeded—Ad Lindsey. Henry was the 23rd coach in 52 years of Jayhawk gridiron history.
It was unfortunate that Henry's services in some other capacity could not have been retained by the University, but it is hardly likely that the veteran coach who has, before coming here, had such great successes would be satisfied with anything other than coaching football following the war. Certainly he could have been used at present in the University's huge physical conditioning program, if he would have considered accepting such a position. It is war work of a most vital kind.
Henry's resignation clears the way for a clean start here following the war. The Athletic Board has a chance to bring in a youthful energetic coach, capable of performing the tasks of both bringing the young men here, and turning them into a topnotch football squad.
Careful consideration should be made in the choice of a new coach, for another few years like the past eight may break the back of football at this institution, and leave Kansas—not the Harvard—but the Chicago of the Middle West.
As for Gwinn Henry, here is wishing the vet the best of luck in securing the desired war job, and, if he chooses to re-enter the coaching profession, a successful record at his new athletic location following the war. Where the difficulties are not so back-breaking and the task so thankless as on this Campus, Henry might very well once again start turning in those brilliant records which made him so famous at College of Emporia and Missouri University.
Jayhawks Named To AP All-Stars
Three Kansas cagers were named yesterday on the associated press all Big-Six basketball team. Jayhawkers selected were forward Otto Schnellbacher, and guards John Buescher and Ray Evans.
Thornton Jenkins, Missouri sophomore, was awarded the other forward position, and the center post was given to Oklahoma's high-scoring ace, Gerald Tucker. Named as substitutes for the all-star team were Charlie Black of Kansas, and Allie Paine and Bob McCurdy of Oklahoma.

Shenk announced that intramural teams should be preparing their entries for the track and field meet to be held April 8 and 9. Softball, tennis, golf, horseshoes, and hand-ball schedules are also being drawn up in preparation for the spring sports program which will be carried out despite the loss of men to the services, Shenk said.

Coaching Vet Plans to Try For War Job
Chancellor Deane W. Malott yesterday announced the request of football coach and director of athletics Gwinn Henry that he be released from his contract here effective April 1. Henry's five year contract was scheduled to run through the 1943-44 school year.
Coach Henry gave as the reason for his request the uncertainties in the present intercollegiate athletic situation, and the critical financial situation of the University Athletic association. He stated that he hoped to enter some phase of war endeavor.
Chancellor Malott and Dr. W. W. Davis, chairman of the Athletic Board, both indicated that athletics will be continued at the University. Said the Chancellor: "I hope athletics may be continued in some form during the war years, and the University will undertake to provide the necessary coaches for whatever athletics may be possible for the duration."
Succeeded Allen
Henry, a former athletics great of Howard Payne college from which he graduated in 1914. His football coaching records before he came to Kansas include 37 victories in 40 games with the College of Emporia, and 49 triumphs in 75 contests with Missouri University. He also had successful records with the St. Louis Gunners, a strong professional team, and New Mexico University.
Henry accepted the position of athletic director at this University in April of 1937, succeeding Dr. Forrest C. Allen. The veteran coach came here from New Mexico, where he had held the positions of head football coach and athletic director. Long Term Contract
Hailed as an exponent of "the speedy, deceptive style of play", Henry declared as he tackled his new job: "What Kansas needs is men. I mean men to play football. You know how I got my reputation. I went to the College of Emporia, and in my five years there I collected some good men. Four or five good men. They won football games. They made me a good coach."

In December of 1938 Henry accepted the position of head football
Board Considers Sports Finances
Financial matters are beginning to claim the attention of the University Athletic board. Dr. W.W.Davis,board chairman yesterday announced that the University physical education department will have on Aug.1,1943,with all salaries and interest on stadium bonds paid,a cash balance of over $5,000.
At present the board is working on a program of athletics
According to reports, athletic receipts were expected to run about $15,000 short this year of meeting total normal expenses. The University budget pays part of the coaches' salaries since they are connected with the general physical education program of the University. Most of the expected deficit came from football which failed to draw, with basketball carrying its load and a little more.
At present the busi for the 1943-44 school year so that the regular student activity fee money can be allocated to athletics for the interest and principle of the stadium bonds. Earlier this year $5,000 worth of bonds were retired. Elaborate Intermurals
Elaborate Intramurals
It is hoped to continue football with a schedule including small Kansas schools, Kansas State, and possibly Missouri University. The Missouri game would be held in Kansas City, where there would be a possibility of attracting a larger crowd than would be drawn in Lawrence. An elaborate intramural program of tackle football, using University equipment, is also being considered.
From the activity ticket fund the athletic departments annually receive about $3.50 the first semester, and $2.90 the second semester. That allotment this year amounted to approximately $12,000 this year in the fall semester, and less than $10,-000 in the spring semester, for a total of more than $20,000.
Coaching Changes
Recent coaching changes have reduced the athletic budget, however. Gwinn Henry, football coach who recently asked for his release from a long term contract which had an additional year to run, reportedly reached a salary adjustment satisfactory to both him and the athletic board over the weekend. Vic Hurt and Wayne Replogle, football assistants, are now in outside work and the services respectively, and the department of physical education is operating without the services of one instructor used in previous years.
Ralph Richardson, former student will have two articles published in the first April issue of Saturday Evening Post.

THE STORY OF THE WESTERN WINDOWS
AUGUST 1937
IN THE MIDSTATE OF THE WEST, a man named William S. Smith, a native of New York City, was living in a small apartment on the corner of Broadway and Third Avenue. He was a businessman and had just started his own business, but he was very busy with his work. When he got sick, he went to the hospital and had to be taken away because his doctor thought he was too ill.
The next day, when he returned home, he found that his door was open. Inside, there were two men standing behind him. One of them was William S. Smith, the same man he had been living with. The other was a woman named Louise.
William S. Smith asked Louise why she was sitting behind him. Louise answered that she was working on a new project. William S. Smith looked at Louise and said, "I think you're having trouble."
Louise replied, "Why are you sitting behind me?" William S. Smith turned around and sat down beside Louise. He looked at her and said, "What are you doing?"
Louise sighed and said, "I'm not sure what I'm doing." William S. Smith looked at Louise and said, "It's so interesting!"
Louise smiled and said, "You're always asking questions." William S. Smith nodded and said, "I've seen it many times before."
When they finished their conversation, William S. Smith and Louise went out together. They were both happy and content.
Years later, when William S. Smith was living in New York City, he met Louise again. He and Louise were now married. They lived happily until his death in 2015.
William S. Smith wrote a book called "The West Side Story," which is based on the stories he and Louise had told him earlier. It became a popular novel and a favorite among young readers.
The story of the West Side Story is about a man who lives in a small apartment on the corner of Broadway and Third Avenue. He works as a businessman and has just started his own business. When he gets sick, he goes to the hospital and has to be taken away because his doctor thinks he's too ill.

Said Henry at that time: "I appreciate the confidence that the Athletic Board and the Board of Regents has placed in me to give me an opportunity to improve the present situation of University football. I will begin work immediately and make every effort to better our present condition."
Assistants Gone
Said W. W. Davis, chairman of the athletic board: "In my opinion the situation holds promise for as high quality of coaching as any university in America."
Eating Spree Is Real Reason For Shortage Of Food--Hendrickson
At that time Henry named as his assistants Vie Hurt, Mike Ghetto, and Henry Lansing. The last of that trio, Vie Hurt, earlier this year declined to ask for a renewal of his contract.
New York, (INS) — Americans have been on an "spree," Roy F. Hendrickson, chief of the food distribution administration, maintained yesterday, adding that this was the real reason for the food shortage.
He warned that the only solution was a government-specified diet with the balance of the available food going for war purposes.
"The time has passed." Henrickson told a group of advertising women, "when we could think of sending to the war the food that was needed, and getting along very well with what was left. Today we have to start with this question: Just what and how much mus we keep at home?"
Senator Says Davis Is Propagandizing
Washington, (INS) — The Office of War Information was under the attack of Senator Taft (R) of Ohio yesterday.
Taft declared that it is "both an abuse of power and an insult to the intelligence of the American people and to the abilities of our free press and radio workers" for Elmer Davis, OWI Director, to commandeer radio stations for "propaganda broadcasts."
Referring to the first of a series of radio reports which Davis made last Friday night, Taft said that the broadcast did not contain "one word" for which he could not have depended on the regular radio newscasters.
"If he will make the facts available to the newspapers and the radios with frankness and candor," Taft said, "they will make it unnecessary for him to take over the job.
"Americans do not take kindly to propaganda by their government."
Allotment for Lindley Hall Made By State Committee
Topeka, March 15, INS—The house ways and means committee has allotted $50,000 for furniture and equipment for the new mineral resources building, Lindley hall, at the University of Kansas. At the same time the committee added to the appropriation measure $34,000 for equipment for the new library building at Kansas State College, Emporia.
Washington, (INS) — Charles A. Halleck, representative from Indiana believes, "Destroy the newspapers, and, in effect, you make possible an Axis victory, a victory for ignorance and oppression in our assembly halls, in our schools, and in our homes, if not on the field of battle."

Lewis Delivers Strict Demand On Miners' Wage
New York, (INS) — United Mine Workers President John L. Lewis declared yesterday afternoon that his 450,000 followers won't work without a contract after March 31st in the nation's soft coal fields whose output is vital to war industries.
His demand for a $2 a day wage boost—far in excess of that authorized under the government's "Little Steel" formula—rejected by both northern and southern bituminous operators, Lewis flatly told leaders of the former group that members of his union are "law-abiding" and added:
"The mine workers don't intend to break their record by trespassing on property in the absence of any negotiated agreement.
"It is a safe assumption that if the miners do not get their contract they will not trespass on your property the second day of April."
Meanwhile, H. C. Washington of Cabin Creek, W. Va., meeting with southern operators in a separate conference, echoed Lewis' declaration.
"The boys I represent told me to give you this message—no contract, no work," asserted the union leader.
The current contract expires on March 31 but April 1 is observed as a holiday by coal miners so the first working day following falls on April 2. Lewis' statement made it clear that he intends to adhere to the union policy of "no contract, no work" regardless of the need for soft coal by war industries.
The attack on the little steel wage formula was voiced by John Saxton of Norton, Va., president of district 28.
"We are sitting here quibbling over a matter of $2 a day which isn't anywhere near what the cost of living has risen," he said. "You operators are sitting there feeling you are safe in the little steel formula that wages cannot be increased more than 15 per cent.
"You're making an error, and a serious error, because labor must be recognized."
Missouri Ace Pilot Missing In Action Following Sea Battle
Somewhere in New Guinea, (INS)
—Two of America's ace fighter pilots were officially reported missing in action yesterday although their comrades knew for days that they had gone down gallantly in last week's battle with the Japanese in the Bismarck Sea.
One of the missing airmen is Captain Robert Thoreau of Cape Girardeau, Mo. The record of the two men was 11 enemy planes shot down and 20 additional probable victims.
Chicago, (INS)—The theory that some young men of draft age may be turning deliberately to crime to avoid military service was advanced yesterday by Chief Justice John A. Sbarboar of criminal court.
When five young men, charged with robbery and car theft, were brought before him, Justice Sbarbaro learned that two of them who had no previous records had committed their crimes three days after their induction.

Governor Says Oklahoma Wants Roosevelt Aqain
Oklahoma City, (INS) — Governor Robert S. Kerr, who also holds the position of national Democratic committeeman for Oklahoma, today was on record as favoring a fourth term for President Roosevelt.
Although Governor Kerr qualified his endorsement of the president for another term by saying he believed he would be selected again to head the nation's war effort, "if the nation is still at war," he predicted that the present world-wide conflict would not end for at least another two years.
"Every indication that I have seen leads me to believe that if the war is still going on, and if it is still being handled as it has been, is being, and I believe will be handled, President Roosevelt will be overwhelmingly endorsed for a fourth term by Democrats of Oklahoma," Governor Kerr said.
The fourth term question was brought up when the Governor was asked about his views along the line of Governor Sam Jones of Louisiana, who in a recent magazine article saw the South breaking away from the New Deal.

German Gains In Kharkov Region Again Bring Need Of Second Front
German gains in the region of Kharkov are significant—because they might be the preliminary steps to another German offensive in Russia, an offensive which might through the very desperation of its savagery knock the Russian armies from the war or weaken them to near impotence.
If such an event occurs, the Anglo-Saxon nations will be in a large measure responsible for a debacle which will cost not only Russia but themselves dearly in loss of life and property. As yet no European second front has appeared, and as a result Germany is again able to concentrate forces in Russia to such an extent that offensives are possible.
No person underestimates the difficulties of an invasion of European soil which would be encountered by Allied troops. Men would die, it is true, and perhaps success would hang precariously. However, master strategists such as Canada's General McNaughton have said that the United Nations do possess the armed strength to make such an attack.
If the English and American commanders are still waiting for their ratio of strength to increase as compared to Hitler's, let them think soberly what will happen to that ratio should Germany dispose of Russia. The United Nations then would not only lack anything resembling offensive strength, but Germany might feel herself strong enough to initiate an offensive of her own against Great Britain. Then the men and material expended on an invasion now would be a handful as compared to the millions lost in a defensive combat, drawn out many years, with the powerful enemy.
It is high time the high command realizes that in such a war as this there is no such thing as a "sure thing," and that waiting does not always improve the odds, but may have a drastically different effect upon them. The idea that many Americans now hold—that of letting Germany and Russia wear each other down—is one of the most asinine thoughts they could have, and could lose the war for the United Nations.
When the United States and England prove themselves willing to take part in an invasion which will cost them heavily in life and supplies, but will hasten the end of the war and prove profitable in the long run, they can claim partial credit when Germany is knocked out of the war.
Many University Employees Receive Pay Too Late To Avoid Penalty Payments
Yesterday, the 15th of the month, University employees on the irregular payroll received their pay checks, and thus began a new practice at the University of paying these employees in the middle of the month. pay checks once a month, the 15th. This check will be in payment for work from the first day of the previous month of the first of the one during which the check is issued.
The hardship which the plan is working upon many employees seems to offset whatever advantage the state business office might gain.
Just Wondering
---
Why the V-7 Naval reserve boys get a so much fairer deal than the army reservists got.
Business transactions in Lawrence and vicinity are not carried out in a month ending the 15th. Utility bills must be paid the 10th. For late payment a penalty is added. The difficulty is easily seen. Employees who earn little more than enough to meet their bills each month are affected most by the change. They cannot afford the penalty which is added to their bills because pay day comes five days after the bills have come due.
With a little cooperation on the part of the University, a more practical plan of payment could, no doubt, be effected.
To those receiving the pay check, it is immaterial whether the money is compensation for work done from the first to the first or for a month beginning and ending with some other date. If the University could rearrange its pay schedule to start with a date near the end of a month and run to the same date in the following month, employees could get their checks in time to meet bills which fall due the 10th.
Humorist George Ade on his 77th birthday gave out a timely quote—one that can well be remembered by certain chronic kickers. Said Ade: "You can have the good old days. I'm perfectly content to be living in the present even with rationing and the war."

Rock Chalk Talk By JIMMY GUNN
Signs of the times—women are desperate: During the trip of Prof. E. O. Stene's Legislatures and Legislation class to the state capitol in Topeka last weekend, they dropped into a tea room for lunch. Thornton McClanahan, 1225 Oread, it seems, didn't order very daintily and that became the topic of conversation. Virginia Shaefer, Pii Phi, was taken aback by the quantities of milk and butter Thornton claimed to eat a week in only two meals daily at home.
Queried Mac, "What's the matter, Virginia, don't you think I'm worth it?"
To which Virginia (hastily) replied, "Oh, yes, I'd be willing to feed you twice a day." So that is that.
--had banished them all except one old serpent which refused to lay St. Patrick made a box, and invited the serpent to enter it. He refused, saying it was too small. St. Patrick insisted it was large enough. The snake, intent on proving his point, entered the box. When he was safely inside, St. Patrick fastened the lid and cast the box into the sea.
That You May Smile
It's not enough to write the stuff
That makes the people gay,
But folks must say that it's just hay
To write the Rock Chalk every day.
But you don't know how sad I grow,
My sense of humor numb,
And tears run down the painted clown.
Pagliacci—here I come.

The spice of life: Tears trickled down the Sage's cheeks when last I saw him. I hardly recognized the old man for the jolly sagacious person. I had known.
"Everyone's leaving," said the Sage with a gulp.
"They'll be back," said I.
"Some of them won't," said the Sage and blew his nose vigorously,
"And even if they will, I won't be here."
"Surely you will." I assured him, for I believed that the old man was well nigh eternal.
"No," sobbed the Sage. "Ice has crept into my veins. My bones are stiff and brittle. Goodbye. I shan't see the sun again."
And I left him. My eye, too, was wet, for I knew that he was right.
Wearing of the Green St. Pat's Day
By FRANCES ABTS
Tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day, a holiday which has been celebrated in America from very early times.
Today, persons giving parties around the middle of March often use shamrock and green in decorations. Some do not know, or have forgotten their significance, and who St. Patrick was had banished them all except old senpai
Roman Catholic authorities say that St. Patrick was born near Kilpatrick in Scotland in 387. At 16, he was captured by Irish marauders and made to serve Irish masters. After six years, he escaped, returned to Britain, and studied religion.
Pope Celestine commissioned him to do missionary work in Ireland. He lived until March 17, 493, and was buried in the place on which the cathedral of Down was later built.
Traditions have grown up about the life of St. Patrick. One regarded as authentic is that he plucked a shamrock and used it as an illustration to the Irish people in his explanation of the mystery of the Holy Trinity.
So now, we wear the shamrock on St. Pat's Day. The green we use is derived from the verdure of the "Emerald Isle."
Banished Eire's Snakes
Another tradition points out the impression of St. Patrick's foot on hard rock off the main shore at the entrance of Skerries harbor in Ireland.
Legend tells of the expulsion of snakes from Eire by the saint. He
Taft Gets Fragment
One amusing incident at a St. Patrick's Day celebration concerned President Taft. A piece of "ould sod" was imported from Ireland for the President to stand on as he gave an address to the Irish Fellowship Club of Chicago in 1910. So many pieces were taken as souvenirs by Irish men and women that only a fragment was left. This fragment President Taft took back to Washington with him.
Bridgeport — Clare Boothie Luce, representative from Connecticut, in a letter to President Roosevelt, wrote "While we feel that our cause is safe on the battlefronts, we are deeply alarmed by the many queuing and even explosive circumstances that face us on the home front."

Hull Asks People To Increase Effort
Washington, (INS)—Warning that the war is likely to be a long one, Secretary of State Cordell Hull today appealed to the American people to increase their war efforts rather than relax them to hasten a United Nations victory.
Hull, who has just returned from a brief rest in Florida, issued this appeal at a press conference in the presence of British Foreign Secretary Anthony $ ^{*} $
Hull, who has just returned this appeal at a press conference Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden and the British Ambassador, Lord Halifax.
The Secretary of State, who took refreshed after his Florida trip, interrupted his first conference with Eden to receive the newspapermen. Bringing Eden and the British Envoy into the conference room with him, Hull began by saying that he was greatly impressed on his trip with the splendid interest and real alertness of the American people in regard to the prosecution of the war.
If the people, Hull added, will only continue and undertake, as should be done in a serious military concoction to increase their exertions rather than to relax them, it would hasten the end of the awful destruction of the war and bring the conflict to a victorious conclusion for the United Nations.
Appeals To Nation
Hull said that he was in entire agreement with the statement made on Saturday by Eden that the United Nations must not reach any hasty conclusions about the length of this car.
It will, according to all reasonable and practical calculations, be more long drawn out than we might have a hasty judgment decide, Hull emphasized.
ists Important Facts
Asked what he considered to be the most important thing that should e borne in mind in connection with ne current Anglo-American talks, Full replied that there are a number of important things that might well be kept in mind.
We all agree, he added, as to the absolute necessity of maintaining complete understanding among the important governments concerned with the prosecution of the war.
This understanding, Hull continued, should relate particularly to the problems concerning the successful prosecution of the war, as well as to a successful conclusion of post war problems.
Emphasizes Change of Views
Hull emphasized that the United Nations' governments will profit by request exchanges of views and information.
The secretary of state took special pains to stress the importance of such exchange of views not only between the United States and Great Britain, but with Soviet Russia and China as well.
Hull's reference to the importance of exchange of views with the Soviets was considered particularly significant in view of the fact that problems relating to Russia were believed to have figured in his first talk with Eden and Lord Halifax his morning.
Exchanges of information and views will be profitable, he said, between representatives of two or even more of the United Nations, such as between this country and Soviet Russia or China, or other nations likewise involved in the war. Will Not Be Decisive
The secretary said that the current discussions with Eden would not involve any binding decisions. He said the problems being discussed refer to conditions which affect all of the Allied Nations.
The secretary also indicated that international currency problems may be among the topics taken up in the conversations with Eden. Questioned about conferences held in London on this subject, Hull pointed out that the United States had an observer at those meetings.
University Is Assured Of Survey Appropriation
Topeka, (INS)—The University of Kansas Geological Survey today was assured of an appropriation of $140,000 for the next two year period. An attempt in the house by Representative Charles Vance, Liberal, to cut the amount 50 per cent was decisively defeated.
WAR BOND QUIZ
Q. Can Stamps of various denominations be placed in one album?
A. More than one denomination in an album greatly increases the work and cost of redemption. Please, therefore, don't mix denominations.
Q. May a minor designate a coworker or beneficiary?
A. Yes, if the purchase is made by the minor from his own wages or earnings.
Q. Do I lose my investment if my War Savings Bond is lost, stolen, or destroyed?
A man grabs a child's hand and punches him.
A. No; upon satisfactory proof of loss or destruction, the Treasury Department will issue a duplicate, usually without requiring a bond of indemnity.
By Gib Crockett.
Q. May I register the name of a beneficiary on a Bond without his knowledge?
A. Yes. Records of War Savings Bonds are confidential. It is not necessary for the Treasury to contact the beneficiary during the owner's lifetime. Only individuals may be named as beneficiaries. No associations, churches, or clubs may be so named.
Remember—the longer you keep War Bonds, up to 10 years, the more valuable they become

Draftees Rejected Because Americans Lack Body Training
Evanston, Ill., INS—One reason more than 40 per cent of draft registrants are being rejected is that Americans virtually have abandoned body training, it was declared today by Prof. Leon Kranz, head of the department of physical education at Northwestern University.
Prof. Kantz, a lieutenant in the army air corps in the first world war added:
"Before gas rationing, it was common for youngsters to ride to school in the family automobile. They sit in school for hours; after school they sit through three or four hours in the movies, then lounge before the radio for several more hours. These practices are going on at a time when the youngsters should be building their biddies for the future."
Cessna's Victory Is Warm-up For First AAU Game Tonight
Wichita, March 15—Special—Following a 57 to 47 warmup victory Saturday night over the Colorado Springs Martin Jewelers, the Wichita Sessna Bobcats today prepared for their tilt tonight with the Hondo, Tex., service team in the first round of the national AAU basketball championships.
Leading the Cessna team in its victory over the Jewelers was little Dick Smith, who contributed 19 points to the victors' total. John Buescher, center from Kansas' Big Six championship five, hit the basket for 13 points.

Stamps Are Hoarded; Grocers Face Rush
Oklahoma City, (INS) — The hoarding of food rationing stamps by housewives of Oklahoma is about to drive grocers frantic, according to Watson Rogers, secretary of the Oklahoma Retail Grocers Association.
"Shoppers are not spending their ration points, but we know they don't intend to let them expire unused at midnight, March 31," Rogers said.
"Their delay means two things. It means they are all going to rush into the stores at the same time the last few days and some of them will not be able to buy what they want with their stamps. It also means that grocer's stocks will be depleted and there may be a few days when there won't be enough on the shelves to accept the stamps the women are wanting to exchange," Rogers said.
"We're facing the biggest log-jam you ever saw, and we're helpless to do anything about it," one Oklahoma grocer said.

Axis Powers Get Foretaste Of Revolution
(International News Service)
A foretaste of what is sure to happen when the oppressed peoples of Nazi-dominated Europe are encouraged by Allied invasion of the continent to revolt was given to the Axis overlords today.
While smashing air attacks against a new Japanese convoy north of Australia and savage fighting in the middle Donets region of Soviet Russia headed the list of actual war developments, a situation without a parallel since Adolph Hitler subjugated Europe developed in the Haute Savoie region of Alpine France.
Thousands Rebel
These thousands of French patriots, rebelling against Axis press gangs seeking to round them up for labor service in Nazi Germany, barricaded themselves in the mountains above the plateau of Thonon, and rejected all demands that they surrender and compelled imposition of martial law over a wide area.
Late Moscow dispatches told of an increasingly heavy battle in the middle Donets, following German recapture of Kharkov. Battlefront dispatches meanwhile indicated important Soviet advances from Vyazma which threatened the German key points of Briansk and Smolensk whose recapture would more than compensate for Russia's second loss of Kharkov.
Weather Hinders Action
Bad weather interfered with ground activities on the Tunisian front but Allied air forces were on the go, sinking one Axis ship out of a Tunisian-bound convoy and damaging several others.

Giraud Pledges Fight For Unity of French
Algiers, (INS)—Prospects for complete union of all French elements opposed to Nazism and Fascism were brighter following Gen. Henri Honore Giraud's pledge to fight for re-establishment of the French republic on broad democratic outlines.
Giraud's speech, delivered befciety, was broadcast over an inte highlight of a protest meeting against Germany's employment of forced labor measures in the provinces of Alsace and Lorraine.
Giraud's speech, delivered before the Alsace-Lorraine society, was broadcast over an international hook-up. It was the highlight of a protest meeting against Germany's employment
As civil and military commander-in-chief of French Africa, Giraud promised the repeal of all Vichy legislation, particularly anti-Jewish decrees, restoration of democratic functions in the territory under his control, and elimination of all Axis influences, whether "measures or men" from North African life.
Declaring that he was "the servant of the French people" rather than their leader or master, Giraud held out the hand of friendship to Gen. Charles De Gaulle without actually mentioning the fighting French leader by name.
De Gaulle Willing To Cooperate
"For my part." he said. "I am ready to cooperate with all those who, accepting the fundamental and traditional principles of which I have spoken, joining in the solemn promises which I make to the people of France, are participating in the fight against the enemy."
The offer, matching that made by De Gaulle in London last Friday, was believed to have done much to ease the strained feelings between the two camps of Frenchmen whose chief aim, despite their numerous differences, remains the destruction of Nazism and Fascism.
Giraud's address was approved by the members of the Comite De Guerre, North Africa's present governing body, and informed sources credited Robert D. Murphy and

"I give the most solemn assurance to the people of France," Giraud said, "that their sacred right to choose their provisional government themselves will be fully safeguarded. I am the servant of the French people. I am not their leader."
Formal decrees carrying out the reforms he pledged are now being drafted, it is understood.

Unc Jimmy Green Is Painted White
DOCUMENTS REPORTED BY THE SECRETARY OF THE CURRENCY AND STATE DEPT. FOR USE IN MISSING PROPERTY RECOUNTS AND OTHER COMMON GOVERNMENT ACTIVITIES.

Bv JANE MINER
"Uncle Jimmy" Green wore his annual new suit Monday, the coat of paint furnished free each year around St. Patrick's day. The engineers are usually considered the artists.
In past years the statue has been painted green in honor of St Patrick, the engineers' patron saint. This year, however,
St. Patrick, the engineers' pat faced with the shortage of green because of its use in the war effort, "Uncle Jimmy" received a white coat, white spats and red vest. In his hand was a cigarette. Underneath the statue was the caption, "Jimmy Green has gone to war."
to war.
The statue, standing in front of the Law Barn, is the work of Daniel Chester French, sculptor, who also did the statue of Lincoln in the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. "Uncle Jimmy" Green, more than 40 years head of the School of Law, stands with his arm around a student, symbolis of his close relationship with the student body.
Unveiled in 1924, the statue received a coat of paint in 1928. In October of 1929, a Kansas State raiding party descended on Mt. Oread during the night and gave "Uncle Jimmy" a coat of grayish-white paint. "KSAC" was painted in large letters on the walk just east of the Law building. When the artistry of the Aggies was discovered that night, University men organized and gathered in front of Green hall. They removed the paint from the statue, and then patrolled all roads leading out of Lawrence, in search for the invaders. They were not successful, and the culprits slipped away.

K. U. Selected As Navy V-12 Training Site
The University has been selected by the Navy Department to serve as one of the centers for administering the qualifying test for the Navy College Training Program, known as the V-12 program, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today. The test used for the preliminary selection of the men who are to be given this college training will be administered in high schools and colleges throughout the United States between the hours of 9:00 and 11:00 a.m. on Friday, April 2.
The purpose of the V-12 program is to produce Naval officers. High school seniors, high school graduates, and college students who appear to have potentialities for ultimate selection as officers will be chosen for college training. The plan contemplates that this college training will be carried on while the men are on active duty, in uniform, receiving pay, and under general military discipline.
Three Groups Eligible
The following groups of young men are eligible for the examinations: (a) High school and preparatory school graduates who will have attained their 17th but not their 20th birthdays by July 1, 1943, regardless of whether they are now attending college; (b) high school and preparatory school seniors who will be graduated by July 1, 1943, provided they will have attained their 17th but not their 20th birthdays by that date; and (c) students who have attained their 17th but not their 20th birthdays by July 1, 1943, who do not hold certificates of graduation from a secondary school but who are now continuing their education in an accredited college or university.

Wheeler Describes Campaign Publicity
A frank and personal recital of experiences as publicity chairman for the Republican party in last fall's gubernatorial campaign was given by C. W. Wheeler before journalism, political science, and sociology students yesterday afternoon in Fraser hall. Mr. Wheeler, who is president of the Kansas Press Association and business manager of the Abilene Reflector-Chronicle spoke under the*
sponsorship of the department of journalism.
Mr. Wheeler revealed that his biggest single source of difficulty came from class and special interest publications which wanted to sell their editorial influence for sums of money ranging up to $2,000.
Describing himself as a "country newspaperman," Mr. Wheeler outlined the working of committees which assisted Governor Schoenopel in composing his speeches and releasing them to newspapers. He estimated that it takes a minimum of $25,000 for general publicity purposes to elect a governor in Kansas.
Speaking before journalism students later in the afternoon, Mr. Wheeler discussed war-time effects of the business side of small weekly and daily newspapers. Restrictions on paper, decrease in advertising revenues, and loss of manpower were cited as the major effects so far.
Free Publicity Hard To Get
Advertising of cigarettes, automobiles, farm machinery, household appliances, and similar goods has fallen more than 60 per cent, he asserted. Classified advertising has increased slightly, he said.
Theta Sigma Sponsors Dinner
Last evening Mr. Wheeler was guest of honor at a dinner at the Colonial Tea room. He spoke on the organization and functions of the Kansas Press association of which the University Daily Kansan is a member newspaper.
The dinner was sponsored by Theta Sigma Phi, journalism sorority, and was attended by faculty members and students of the department of journalism. Mr. Wheeler was introduced by Virginia Tienan, president of the sorority.
SPENCER TO BE----
(continued from page one) 1920, he was a delegate to the Lambeth conference in England. He contributes his articles frequently to prominent periodicals.
Dr. Spencer was graduated from the Kansas Theological School in 1904. For the next three years, he served as pastor of the Church of the Covenant, Junction City, and he held a special pastorate at Ft. Riley. From 1907 until he moved to Kansas City, he was associated with St. John's church in Springfield, Mo.

Swimming Meet Precedes Many Weekend Events

The Mid-week was not the only attraction last night. The women's intramural swimming meet drew crowds into the turkish bath atmosphere of the pool room to watch bathing beauties dive and race. After the meet spectators and swimmers alike poured into fountains for cokes and food.

After a hot atmosphere the doubly cold last night, but when students woke up this morning in a freezing room with snow flakes spattering the windows, they realized that Spring is not yet here to stay. The weather will not affect the Engineers annual banquet tonight, but may put a damper on the Phi Gam steak fry planned for tomorrow night.
With food rationing growing worse and men trickling out of the University one by one or in bunches, parties and banquets will necessarily become limited. But this weekend looks promising. Over 200 tickets were sold for the Engineers banquet tonight in the Kansas Room of the Union. Friday and Saturday nights several dances and picnics are planned.
Tomorrow night the Cooperative houses will dance in the Kansas room. Saturday night the Phi Chi informal dance at their house and the Hobnail Hop will provide entertainment. The Westminster Forum Picnic is planned for Saturday. Those students planning to attend ought to get in good with the weather man.

WYOMING FAVORED
Our choice of the team to take the Western NCAA playoffs in Kansas City March 26-27, is Wyoming. The Cowboys won 23 out of 24 games this season—dropping an early season game to Duquesne in Pittsburgh.
Milo Komenich, 6-foot 7-inch Cowboy star, set a new Madison Square Garden record in December when he sank 10 field goals against St. Francis which went down to defeat 38 to 63. However, that record was broken the next night by Harry Boykoff of Brooklyn's St. John when he scored 45 points against Philadelphia's St. Josephs. While on their eastern trip the Wyoming snapped tucked Rochester's 22 game winning streak, 68 to 46.
JABBERWOCK
Milo is left handed and shoots a hook shot off his ear that nobody has ever figured out how to guard. He has scored 408 points this season in the 24 games for an average of 17 points a game regardless of the opposition.
The 1943 Great Lakes basketball team won 34 games and lost 3 games in contrast to 31 victories against 5 defeats in 1942. Illinois, Notre Dame, and Northwestern were the only teams to down the sailors. However, the sailors also defeated Notre Dame and Northwestern. They avraged 59.3 points per game while their opponents averaged 39.5. Last year's team averaged only 51.6 points per game.
** * * * * *
Notre Dame had one of its better seasons as is shown by its record of 18 victories and 2 defeats. The Irish scored 1071 points in 20 games for an average of 53.5 points a game. Their most important victory was the one over Great Lakes last week when they downed the sailors in an overtime period 44 to 42. Up to that game the naval quintet had won 24 straight games.
Oklahoma Frosh To Play In NCAA
Drafted by the NCAA committee to represent the 5th district in the Western basketball tournament at Kansas City, March 26 and 27, Oklahoma's Big Six conference runners-up is readying a couple of freshmen players for the meet to bolster the team and replace their totally departed sophomore crop.
Bruce Drake, Sooner coach, is striving to polish, in the short time at his command, Charles Pugsley and Jim Mitchell, two six-foot freshmen who played last year on Okla homa City Classen High School's strong team.
Unlike Wyoming, Texas and Washington, who have had access to freshmen all year and thus have had time to blend them into their team plan, Oklahoma's freshmen are just starting out, owing to the Big Six conference's dilatory action of staying the date of freshmen eligibility until March 1, 1943.

Cessna Dropped From AAU Meet
Cessna Aircraft of Wichita was eliminated from the AAU basketball tournament in Denver last night by the Poudre Valley quintet from Ft. Collins which left the court with a 55 to 49 victory.
With forward Dick Smith sparking the Cessna team, the Kansans led at the half 27 to 25. However, the Poude Valley team came back in the second half to take the tight game 55 to 49.
Dick Smith was the game's high point man with 22 points. Owen Smith scored 16 points for Poudre Valley. John Buescher, one of KU's Iron Men, scored 7 points for the losers.
Hollywood's Twentieth Century-Fox, one of the ruling favorites, was dropped from the running by a fighting little team of air corps men from Williams Field, Arizona by the close score of 51 to 50.
Another favorite, the Allen-Bradley veterans from Milwaukee, were eliminated by the Ft. Lewis Washington Reception Center team, 57 to 44.

Chiapusso Presents Successful Recital
Vola 7
A Jan Chiapusso piano recital is like a Socratic discourse. A large segment of piano literature is surveyed, depths are plumed, and hidden meanings strike the listener with glad surprise. Mr. Chiapusso always sets himself a hard task; he spurs all shaddy or meretricious interludes. In the years he has been in Lawrence he has built up a serious-minded, blue-stocking clientele which follows his concerts devotedly. Last evening a typical Chiapusso audience heard some soul-satisfying disquisitions from Brahms, Beethoven, Chopin and Debussy.
The first offering was Mh. Chiausso's own transcription of the famous Brahms Waltzes, op. 39. Mr. Chiapusso made the arrangement from the original 4-hand version while he was a student in Paris. It is richer in texture and more pianistic than Brahms' own 2-hand arrangement; Mr. Chiapusso should publish it. He played with the right Viennese feeling; his rhythm was compelling but not oppressive, and his octave passages had the strength and resilience of structural steel.
Audience Is Spellbound
Next came Beethoven's Sonata Op. 111, the last of the immortal "32". Mr. Chiapusso made it an Aeschylean drama of defiance, suffering, resignation and final spiritual exaltation. His reading was of epic proportions. The audience sat as in a solemn religious assembly. Among many technical felicities one might note particularly Mr. Chiapusso's remarkable handling of the gruelling trills near the close of the Arietta movement.
Three cannily selected Chopin pieces comprised the third group: Impromptu, Op. 38, Valse Op. 64, Polonaise Op. 44. There was no drawing room aura in Mr. Chiapusso's Chopin; it was hearteningly virile. Tempo rubato was used to charge the music with electricity and not to spray it with syrup. Dulcimer In Finale.
Four choice specimens from Debussy closed the program: "Bells Through the Leaves," "Goldfish," "Evening in Granada," "The Isle of Joy." "Bells Through the Leaves" had back-bone as well as glamor. "Evening in Granada" introduced the one voluptuous note of the program. A pagan revel was "The Isle of Joy." The Debussy group demonstrated that Mr. Chiapuso is as much a master of Impressionism as of Classicism and Romanticism.
Home Economists Dietitians Will Meet
A meeting of the Kansas Home Economics Association and the Kansas State Dietetics Association will be held Saturday in Topeka, Miss Olga M. Hoesly, professor of Home Economics and president of the Kansas Home Economics Association, announced yesterday.
There will be a joint luncheon of the two organizations at which Miss Frances MacKinnon, regional director of the Nutrition Service, the American Red Cross, and President of the American Dietetic Association will speak.
One might not have expected riotous applause from the serious thinkers in Mr. Chiapusso's audience but they were almost as enthusiastic as a group of young jitterbugs. That is sufficient evidence of the command Mr. Chiapusso exercises over his hearers.—G.C.S.
Fine Arts Students Give Weekly Recital In Fraser Theater
Students of the School of Fine Arts presented piano, voice, and ensemble numbers at their weekly recital in Fraser theater this afternoon.
A piano "Sonata in D Major" (Haydn) was played by Max Hughes. To close the recital an ensemble composed of Peggy Kay, violin; Martha Lee Baxter, cello; and Marian Miller, piano played "Trio, Op. 1, No. 3" (Beethoven).
Blanch Pierson began the program by playing three piano solos, "Air de Ballet" (John Thompson), "Contre-Dance No. 3" (Beethoven-Seiss), and Fifth Noeturne" (Leybach). Elaine Talley then sang "Lullaby" (Cyril Scott), and Margaret Titus played a piano solo "La Plus Que Lente" (Debussy).

The final check-up will show that the total appropriations have exceeded those of 2 years a little under $2,000,000 despite the fact the war has stopped all war building programs not given priorities.
A part of the increase will go to boost salaries of state employees. The house yesterday passed the amended labor bill by a vote of 84 to 30. The measure went to the senate which early this morning agreed to concur in the house amendment by 28 to 7.
The bill is now in the hands of Governor Andrew Schoeppel. He has given no indication whether he will sign or veto the measure.

Huge Losses in Person and Property From Traffic Accidents Hinders War
"Over 300 killed; nearly 2000 injured."
No, it is not a war headline. These figures recently were released by the State Safety Department on traffic accidents occurring in Kansas during the year 1942. Such reports brought before the public midst the astounding figures of war casualties are likely to be overlooked or cast aside without the full significance of such summaries taking effect.
A huge loss of life and loss from personal injury as well as the loss of property in one state alone is causing the nation to suffer a great decrease in war production. As the center of the nation, well supplied with airplane factories, munitions plants, and vital occupations, Kansas should realize the importance of cutting down the accidents that will hinder the war effort.
With the government restricting travel to thirty-five miles an hour on highways, and with most cities regulating speed at twenty-five miles an hour or less, reckless driving can be called nothing but sabotage, especially when it may result in injuries or death to a necessary defense worker or when a vital defense shipment may be wiped out. Not only Kansans but Americans throughout the nation should realize that a crash at a railroad crossing today might destroy a train load of munitions or valuable war material or might disable or kill a trained defense employee.
At the present time, the lack of physicians to care for such accident patients and the lack of labor to repair machines and reconstruct damaged bridges, railroads, and highway sections has caused the Federal government, as well as individual states to appeal to persons to be more careful than ever before.
When such valuable and vital persons and material as doctors, nurses, and the blood bank supply are used up for careless accidents on the home fronts, the men in foreign service and the complete war effort will suffer.
Political Philosopher Appeals For Understanding With Russia
The suspicion is gradually growing in American minds that the leader of liberal thought in this country is not Franklin Delano Roosevelt, or Norman Thomas, or Harry Hopkins, but Henry A. Wallace, the nation's vice-president who is rapidly becoming an important national figure.
Wallace is more than a mere politician, more even than a statesman. He is, perhaps, America's first active political philosopher since the days of Woodrow Wilson. He is possessed of a deep insight into the American mind, a quiet understanding of the troubles of the less fortunate, and a manner of speaking in the language of the common man while dealing with problems of great complexity. He is passionately devoted to the cause of world peace, determined to do his utmost to prevent a repetition of the present conflict.
Today Vice-President Wallace is sounding a warning to which Americans should lend an ear. He has pointed out that the seeds of World War III can very easily be sown in the next few years, for only if a definite understanding can be reached soon between this nation and Russia will there be any real chance of a lasting peace.
Just Wondering
---
If the students who painted the statue of Uncle Jimmy Green this week realized that someone of the buildings and grounds department would have to be taken from a necessary job to clean off the paint.
Should the United States and Great Britain again return to their old policy of cold-shouldering the Reds in the fields of international politics and trade, it is not only possible, but probable, Wallace points out, that the Soviets will find themselves united with the Germans—whose Prussian instincts might once again be fostered as a threat to Russia—in a war against the United States. Such a struggle would dwarf even the present war.
It is time, people such as Wallace believe, that Americans discard their old conceptions of Russians as bomb-tossing, bearded sinister individuals, and look upon them as a vital people energetically engaged in a great building task, with no time left over for imperialistic ambitions.
There is much of wisdom in what Wallace says. Russia must be given a fair hearing at the peace table with natural defensive boundaries being kept in mind. She must be given en equal privilege of trading in the world's markets, and most important of all, she must no longer be regarded as the social blacksheep of the world's family of greater nations. She has proved her right to be considered among those countries whose strength and integrity merit a position of importance in the post-war world scheme.

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
West Hills tragedy: About half of the Delta Gamma freshmen were campused the other night. Swarming in a south dorm, the girls grew bored and began morse-coding with the lights. At regular intervals Doris Bixby, Donna Claire Jackson, Harriet Allen, Joyce Hartwell and others SOSed to the D.U. house for help. But the D.U.'s didn't catch on. All they could think of was the story about the little girl lightning bugs. They considered the possibility, decided that they knew the D.G.'s better than that and went on reading. The D.G.'s went on being bored. It was such a lovely evening.
Crime still isn't paying: The other morning Bob Martindale (the boy who drinks goldfish water) was awakened by the clang of an alarm at 3 a.m. He turned on the light, searched around with half closed eyes but failed to locate the timepiece. About then the noise stopped so he went back to bed—only to be electrified in another minute with the same clang. He got up, looked around; the noise stopped. With nerves completely shattered Martindale retired again. The alarm went off again. After approximately five repeat performances, Bob located a Big Ben repeater hidden in a dark corner of his closet. Thy say Alan Martinnek is campused for practically the rest of the semester.

The gauntlet is on its way down: While the rest of the campus awaits spring, the Theta Tau's anxiously scan their newspapers for some forecast of snow. After the very first storm of the year a few engineers got into a snow fight with a few Phi Delt's. One imprudent T.T. called the opponents a bunch of Betas. Whereupon the whole Phi Delt chapter 70 some strong shot indignantly out of the house and almost decapitated the outnumbered engineers. Now that recruiting regulations and exemptions have evened up the factions, the engineers live for an occasion to again issue the supreme insult.

All-Girl Cast To Present Play March 30-31, April 2
"Spring, 1942" is the name of the original all-girl play which will be presented to the students and public for a three-night stand, March 30, March 31, and April 2. Reserve seat tickets will go on sale March 25.
The play, written by Prof. all-girl cast, takes place on Bataa ters of Hospital Unit C, during the period from January to April, 1942. It is the story of nine American army nurses serving on Bataan at hte time of the Japanese invasion.
The play, written by Prof. Allen Crafton expressly for an all-girl cast, takes place on Bataan peninsula in the nurses' quar- $ ^{*} $ Hospital Unit C. during $ ^{*} $
The cast, one of the most experienced which has appeared in Fraser theater, is composed mostly of majors in drama, and all have studied acting and directing at the University.
Mary Cheney, playing the part of Captain Frances Irvine, head nurse at Hospital Unit C, may be remembered for her humorous portrayal of Edith in "The Women." She has also appeared in a number of productions at Mills College in California.
Betty Rowton, playing a nurse of "iron nerve and stability," has appeared in "A Woman of Character," "Quality Street," "The Cradle Song," and "Mary of Scotland."
Rosemary Utterback, who dies in the play, appeared in "A Woman of Character."
McCluggage Is Newcomer
Roberta Sue McCluggage, who stands up under overwork and bombing, but can't face the thought of capture by the Japanese, is a newcomer to Hill dramatics.
Lois Blackburn Wilson, playing a wise-cracking nurse, will be remembered by summer school students and townspeople for her work in last summer's production, "Spring Dance."
Edith Ann Fleming, a nurse who finds that the biggest gap in the world is between what your mind tells you and what the world tells you, has appeared previously in "Thunder Rock," and "Charley's Aunt," and directed "The Terrible Meek."
Frances Perkins, playing the part of Kalla, a native woman who gets through the Jap lines and helps save a detachment of American soldiers, appeared in "Meet the Talent" last fall. She is also known in this district for her acting in Kansas City. Jane Peake Goes Hysterical
Jane Peake becomes hysterical in "Spring, 1942." She did much the same type of role in "Night Must Fall."
Betty Dunlap, a nurse from Kansas City with a shady past is another new star.
Alice McDonnell, an unsociable nurse whom the others suspect of being a spy, appeared as Peggy in "The Woman," and as the bride in "A Woman of Character."

Vespers To Be This Sunday
The final all-musical vespers of the year, which includes the a cappella choir, the Men's and Women's Glee Clubs, the University band, the symphony orchestra and the University string quartet, is scheduled for 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon in Hoch auditorium, Dean D. M. Swarthout said today.
Do spite the drain on manpower, the organizations are still intact and have adjusted themselves to the losses for the present at least, he added.
Under Karl Kuersteiner's direction the symphony orchestra, with an enrollment still around 70, will open the program with the last movement of Howard Hanson's "Romantic Symphony". Dr. Hanson is now head of the Eastman School of
Music, and a few years ago conducted the University symphony orchestra in a program of his own works while he was visiting here. String Quartet To Play
Although it has lost nearly half of its original enrollment the Men's Glee Club, under the direction of Prof. Joseph Wilkins, will be heard in three numbers which include the hunting song, "John Peel" and "This Is My Country."
The University string quartet, which has lost both Raymond Stuhl and John Ehrlich, cellists, to the military forces, will appear Sunday with Dean Swarthout taking over the cello part. Before Mr. Stuhl came to the University School of Fine Arts, Dean Swarthout was the regular cellist in the quartet. The quartet's two numbers will be "Dusk" and "Rustic Dance" (Ernest Bloch).
The only group not to have felt the loss in personnel. The Women's
Glee Club, will be heard in the dramatic religious number "Christ Went up into the Hills" (Hageman), a tribute to Spring by Kernochan, and one other number not yet announced.
University Band To Close Program
The University a cappella choir, which still has 75 out of its original 87 members, will repeat a request number, "Jesus and the Traders," which it sang at its concert three weeks ago. Dorothy Mae Nelson and David T. Lawson will take the soprano and baritone solos in the 17th century passion chorale, "O Darkest Woe," and Arlene Nickels will sing the soprano solo of "The Star" (J. H. Rogers) with an organ accompaniment by Prof. L. E. Anderson of the School] of Fine Arts.
Making its first appearance since the addition of the women's band, the University band will close the program with "Czech Rhapsody" (Weinberger).
Hendrickson Explains Beef Shortage Cause
Washington, (INS)—Even if Lend-Lease and the armed forces took no American beef, there would still be a beef shortage, food distribution administrator Roy F. Hendrickson said yesterday.
At the same time, Hendrickson admitted in an exclusive interview that milk rationing "may be ultimately necessary."
If milk rationing is instituted, he said, the individual milk quota could not be automatically set for the whole country. Instead, milk rationing would have to be established in each milk-shed with the milk allotment for each consumer determined by conditions in the shed. Thus, New York might have a different ration than Boston or Chicago.
This is true. Hendrickson said, because fluid milk, a perishable commodity, cannot be divided up equally among the nation's consumers, as are canned goods, coffee and other rationed products.
The beef shortage, Hendrickson asserted, is not due to a drop in cattle production or slaughtering or to government purchases but to the abnormal food demand. Therefore, if government meat buying were to be stopped, there still would be a "beef situation."
As national incomes goes up, he said, the demand for food goes up and the national income will continue to rise.
Price ceilings hold down the cost of food stuffs, said the man charged by food administrator Wickard with the task of properly distributing America's food. Further, dwindling civilian supplies of other commodities cause the people to buy more food.
"You cannot blame the American people for wanting more food," he said.
"The present situation is the greatest proof we have ever had that the trouble with our farm economy has never been over-production, but under-consumption."
CVC Major Calls Special Meeting
A meeting of CVC sergeants and lieutenants at 7 o'clock this evening in the Pine room of the Union building has been called by Jean Hoffman, major.
17 Men Volunteer From V-7 Reserve
Seventeen members of the Naval Reserve had volunteered by noon today for midshipman's training, which will begin April 29, according to Laurence Woodruff, registrar.
Approximately 45 members of the Reserve are eligible for voluntary enlistments; but Laurence Woodruff, co-ordinator of military information, believes that only 20 will be able to arrange their affairs so that they can leave for active duty April 29.
One of the requirements is that students must remain in school until April 13 at which time they will receive full credit for this semester and will also receive their degrees.
Jayhawk Nursery Committee Will Sponsor Movie
The Jayhawk Nursery committee is sponsoring the sale of tickets to the film, "Journey For Margaret," based on the book by W. L. White, to raise funds to maintain the Jayhawk Nursery in England.
The picture will start Sunday at the Granada and run for four days. Tickets may be bought from Jay Janes and members of the Jayhawk Nursery committee. They are also on sale at all offices in the Administration building, and in Robinson gymnasium. The price of the tickets is 35 cents, plus 5 cents to be paid at the box office.
So far, $2,400 has been raised for the nursery fund. An additional $1,100 is needed to reach the goal of $3,500 which is required to support the nursery.
A. J. Mix, professor of botany, is chairman of the Jayhawk Nursery committee. Dr. Florence Sherbon, professor of home economics, is honorary chairman. Ruth Schaeffer, fine arts senior, is in charge of Jay Jane ticket sales.

New Allied Offensive Begun Today
The first step in a long awaited Allied offensive which is expected to hurl Marshall Rommel's Nazi army out of Tunisia was taken today.
In the meantime, London officials were silent on all rumors of intensified Allied preparations for a North African offensive.
While four British tank and infantry divisions were being used last night by General Sir Bernard L. Montgomery in an assault on the Mareth line in South Tunisia, Allied headquarters in North Africa had made no mention of any major thrust against Rommel's forces, and the Allies were reported to be silent on any plan of action.
Berlin radio broadcasts last night declared that the 5th British division was being held in reserve and that other British forces were being reinforced for possible assaults on the German flanks.
Capt. Ludwig Sertorius, Berlin radio commentator, said that strong concentrations of American troops had been observed during the last few days near the pass positions of Axis troops in Central Tunisia.
American field troops reported a canopy of planes today swept into the key town of Gafsa in the central part of the oasis of Elguettar in the early stages of a campaign to carry them to Gabes on the eastern coast. Gafsa is the Axis flank base north-west of the Mareth line.
'Spring' Is Tepic of Brainbusters
The "Brain-Busters" program tonight will have as its topic "Spring," which starts Sunday. Prof. John W. Ashton, of the English department, will be master of ceremonies, and the panel includes: Fletcher McCord of the psychology department, Fred S. Montgomery, university director of the Naval Training station, Prof. John Virtue of the English department, and Prof. Joseph F. Wilkins of the voice department.

Legislature Deadlocked By Salary Bill
Topeka (INS)—Deadlocked over a county officials' salary bill which threatened to put the law makers in dutch with court house officers whose salaries might be reduced, the Kansas legislature today was still hours away from adjournment.
Leaders today said they hoped to break the deadlock and end the session sometime this afternoon. Unless leaders regain control of the house, there was a prospect that the session might be prolonged further.
The deadlock came last night when the senate refused to accept the house amendment to the county salaries bill. Then the house farmer members broke away from the leadership and insisted upon passage of the minor livestock bill before adjournment.
The legislature clock still showed that it was noon. The sergeant-at- arms stopped the clocks in both houses yesterday. Leaders said they believed they would be able to move the clocks up to thir right time this evening.
Army Discharges Older Soldiers For Farm Work
Washington, (INS) — Formal discharges today were obtainable before May 1, for soldiers over 38 serving within the United States to perform essential farm work, according to a war department announcement.
Men over 38 years of age serving overseas may be released under the same order by submitting applications prior to June 1, 1943.
Simultaneously the department issued a restatement of general farm policy, asserting that widespread furloughs for individual soldiers under 38 to engage in farm work are not contemplated except in emergency situations.
The department said troop units will be assigned to emergency harvesting of vital crops only after such requests are transmitted to the army by War Manpower Chairman Paul V. McNutt.
In emergency cases, troop units may be employed under command of their own officers to supplement

Crown Queen
Tomorrow
After casting ballots in Marvin hall Tuesday, engineers must now wait patiently until 10 o'clock tomorrow night to learn who is their Hobnail Hop queen.
Results of the voting are being kept secret by the engineering council. In past yars it has been the custom for the lawyers to attempt to abduct the engineer's queen in retaliation for the painting of their beloved "Uncle Jimmy" Green.
Last year the engineering council keep the queen's identity secret until the middle of the dance to check any lawyer's attempt. The idea of secrecy caught on and is becoming traditional.
At noon today Frank Lichty, engineering council president, said that "advance ticket sales point to a big University party in Hoch auditorium tomorrow night." An added inducement to the dance will be 50 cases of cokes, he said.
Contestants for the queenly crown include Charlotte Friotch, Alpha Chi Omega; Dorothy Hanneman, Alpha Delta Pi; Juanita Bowman, Alpha Omicron Pi; Virginia Marshall, Chi Omega; Helen Hovey, Delta Gamma; Dorothy Chapin, Gamma Phi Beta; Nancy Teichgaerber, Kappa Alpha Theta; Peggy Ballard, Kappa Kappa Gamma; and Helen Todd, Sigma Kappa.
Schoeppel Will Not Hurry In Reappointments
Topeka (INS)—Governor Schoepel indicated today he will be in no hurry about making appointments to fill the 34 department head positions following the action of the senate in refusing to confirm the names he submitted yesterday.
All those turned down were individuals holding recessed appointments made by former Governor Payne Ratner. If Gov. Schoeppel waits until the senate adjourns, he can then either reappoint the individuals which the senate refused to confirm or pick new appointees to take their places.
In most cases, including the state board of regents, he is expected to retain the present personl.
The senate, meeting in executive session, had yesterday turned down 34 of the 36 appointments the governor sent to it for confirmation. The only two confirmed were Alfred Williams, Pratt, to the state corporation commission, and Mark Bennett, Topeka, to the tax commission.
Senate leaders, said that since all the others were holding recess appointments from former Gov. Payne Ratner they were turned down so that Gov. Schoeppel can either give them additional recess appointments of name other men to take their places.

Summerfield Exams Given Last Saturday
Freliminary examinations for 53 prospective Summerfield scholars were held in room 206, Marvin hall, Saturday. Lawrence was one of 12 Kansas towns in which the examination was offered.
A total of 201 nominees for Summerfield scholarships met in Blue Rapids, Colby, Concordia, Emporia, Garden City, Great Bend, Hutchinson, Norton, Parsons, Salina, Wichita and Lawrence for the examination.
Only half as many places offered the similar examination last year, but the number was doubled this year because of difficulties in transportation. A card was sent to each nominee to assist him in selecting the most convenient place for examination.
After the examinations are graded, approximately 30 nominees will be chosen to return for the final examination to be given Monday and Tuesday, April 12 and 13. Definite plans have not been made for this exam, but probably the former plan of interviews the first day, and the written examination on the second day will be used. Mrs. Flora S. Boynton, office secretary of the Endowment Association, said.
CancelNaturalization Of Lawrence Man
Topeka, (INS) — The United States district attorney filed suit in federal court here today to cancel the naturalization of German-born Walter E. Gudert, Lawrence, who is charged with being an open Nazi sympathizer.
Gudert, who is 41, recently filed a statement with his draft board claiming he is a conscientious objector, it is said by officials.
Chubb Addr sses Kiwanis Club
Prof. H. E. Chubb of the department of political science spoke at the weekly meeting of the Kiwanis club at Wiedemann's yesterday. In his talk on "American Foreign Policy," Professor Chubb told of the traditional American policies and the changes in them made necessary by shifting world conditions.
Knox, Barrett VanDyke, Robert Bell, Duncan McGregor, Fred Humphreys, Cliff Parson, Arthur Black, Larry McSpadden, Pierre Kimball, Jr., Gerald Tewell, Ernest Hyde, Jr., Robert McCort, Robert Plumb, and John Waggoner, volunteered.
The men will probably be sent to Notre Dame University for their basic or midshipmen's training. The Board of Regents voted last fall to give graduating seniors who are entering the armed forces full credit for their semester's work if they would remain in school until April 13.
Approximately 45 Reservists were eligible for this voluntary enlistment but only the above 20 could arrange their affairs so that they could leave April 13.
Those members that will not leave April 13 will be called at the end of the semester according to Navy department earlier in the semester. Because of the large number of reservists in some specialized or technical training school the Navy asked for the voluntary enlistments.
Watkins Contributes Entire Quinine Stock
In response to an urgent call that all available quinine and quinine salts now held by retail and hospital pharmacies be pooled under the control of the defense supplies corporation, Watkins Memorial hospital is contributing its entire stock of quinine and quinine salts.
Although the development of atabrine, a synthetic drug used in place of quinine, has helped relieve the shortage caused when the Japanese cut off our major supply from the Pacific region, the supply of quinine for our armed forces in regions where malaria is prevalent is critical.
Summer Russian Class Depends Upon Enrollment
Dean Paul B. Lawson has asked that those students who are interested in enrolling in Russian in the summer sessions consult Sam Anderson of the German department, or Dean Lawson, as soon as possible.
The University will be glad to offer this language in at least one of the summer sessions provided there is sufficient demand to organize a class.

Six Pillars of Peace . . .
Churches of Christ Publish Proposals for Just Peace
New York, (INS)—Six proposals designed to point the way to "a just and durable peace" were made public today by the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America.
The "six pillars of peace" were outlined to a luncheon gathering of civic leaders by John Foster Dulles, chairman of a commission formulated more than
two years ago by the Federal Council to study the bases for a lasting peace.
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., a guest at the luncheon, voiced his hearty approval of the six-point program.
Dulles outlined a "statement of political propositions underlying a just and durable peace" which the United States "ought now to accept for itself and begin forthwith to realize in cooperation with others."
The proposals follow:
"1. The peace must provide the political framework for a continuing collaboration of the United Nations and, in due course, of neutral and enemy nations.
12. The peace must make provision for bringing within the scope of international agreement those economic and financial acts of national governments which have widespread international repercussions.
"3. The peace must hake provision for an organization to adapt the treaty structure of the world to changing underlying conditions.
4. The peace must proclaim the goal of autonomy for subject peoples, and it must establish international organization to assure and to supervise the realization of that end.
5. The peace must establish procedures for controlling,military establishments everywhere.
"6. The peace must establish in principle, and seek to achieve in practice, the right of individuals everywhere to religious and intellectual liberty."
ARMY DISCHARGES--maintained a record of 97 per cent convictions in its trials.

The department decreed that soldiers serving within the U.S. must accompany discharge requests with a letter or statement from local base agents affirming their intent to be employed in essential agricultural activities.

Dr. Rice, Detroit Preacher, Dies
Dr. Rice, Detroit Preacher, Dies Dr. Merton S. Rice, aged 70, native of Ottawa, Kan. died at his home in Detroit, Mich., Thursday five days after suffering a heart attack. As pastor of the Metropolitan Methodist church in Detroit Dr. Rice was listed as one of America's 25 most influential preachers.

After Prof. Joseph Wilkins had sung "Londonderry Air" and had just begun "Come to the Fair", Jim Meser, policeman, interrupted him to search for a lost briefcase. With the seemingly innocent aid of Professor Buehler, he found Dean Jakosky's briefcase, and drew from it pictures of Hedy Lamarr and Varga girl calendars. The Dean was also presented with some hair-grower by Warren Snyder, president of the senior engineers, and after leaving the room for a few minutes during a community sing he returned wearing a wig, showing the immediate results of the use of his present.

their hands chapped, but win the hero in the end. Betty is frankly campaigning for careers for women!
"That's all wrong. Every girl should have an occupation or profession."
Actress Chose Her Vocation Early Miss Hutton hasn't forgotten her own childhood, which saw her going to work as singer with a dance band at the age of 14. She wanted to be an actress, or a singer and she took the shortest path between two points.
"If I had my way," Miss Hutton said, "which of course I don't, I would make it imperative that every girl choose a vocation and master it.
"What the world needs is women who are not entirely dependent upon marriage as a solution of all their troubles."
Everyone Works in Wartime
"Even a girl with a marvelous education doesn't know exactly what's going to happen to her life. The debacle of war was completely unexpected."
"Nobody thought anything about the ex-corporal who rose to power in Germany until it was too late to do something about it. Rich girls, poor girls, middle class girls all had to go to work.

THE BASKETBALL WORLD SERIES
In the April issue of Esquire magazine there is an article by Mark Cox, "The World Series of Basketball," or the National Collegiate Athletic Association championship tournament. The history behind the NCAA tournament, summarized from the article, follows:
In 1936 the first concentrated effort was made to produce a national cage titlist. That year one of the innovations suggested for the Olympic Games was a competition in basketball. As a result, the American Olympic committee made arrangements for the selection of a squad by dividing the nation into sections and holding the eliminations between college, AAU, and YMCA teams. A Hollywood club won out and this America's first real basketball champion was produced, with the result that there was a keen uplift of interest in a national champion.
*****
FIRST GARDEN TOURNAMENT
At the close of the 1937 season, New York's Madison Square Garden expanding into big-time basketball promotion, invited leading college teams for an invitation tournament to be staged under the auspices of the Basketball Writers Association. Meanwhile a group of Midwest teachers' colleges had a tournament of their own which was a success in every respect.
At a meeting of the National Association of Basketball Coaches in Chicago, April 4, 1938, a special committee was appointed to investigate these so-called tournaments. The committee members finally came to the conclusion that a real national tournament could be the means of raising funds to send an American team to the Olympics each four years. They also decided to set up the machinery for determining the proper team to send to the Olympics.
NCAA RECOGNIZES PLAN
NCAA officials, with whom the Coaches Association is affiliated, were quick to recognize the possibilities of such a plan but had to be convinced that such a tournament wouldn't interfere too much with class work
Finally through the efforts of H. G. Olsen, Ohio State basketball coach, and George Edwards, Missouri basketball coach, the elementary plan for a NCAA championship control was set up in the manner in which it now exists, and the first tournament was held in 1829.
The nation was divided into eight geographical districts, with the Mississippi river the dividing line. Four districts were established on each side of the river. A two-night tournament was decided upon for the teams of each half with the two winners meeting the following week in a single game to determine the champion.

Creighton Is Dropped From Garden Meet
Excessive fouling proved disaterious for the Creighton basketball team as they were dropped out of the Madison Square Garden Invitational Tournament by the under-rated Washington and Jefferson quintet by the close score of 43 to 42.
Creighton led at the half 28 to 19 but the eastern team gradually closed the gap in the second half while the Blue Jays were losing one player after another because of too much fouling.
The conversion of the free throws resulting from the fouls was the deciding factor in the game. Washington and Jefferson made 17 free throws whereas the Blue Jays made only 10. Creighton had made 16 field goals to their opponent's 13. Altogether the Blue Jays made 28 fouls to their opponent's 18. Langer, Gibson, Beisser, and De La Vega

Michigan Student Sets Swim Record
Detroit, (INS) — A new world's record for the 200-meter backstroke swim was set today by Harry Holiday, crack dorsal champion of the University of Michigan, with a 23.
The time shaved one-tenth of a second from the previous record of 2.24, held by Adolph Keifer, of Chicago.
Holiday, a six-foot six-inch sophomore, swam against time before AAU officials and judges in the Detroit Athletic Club pool. He was
To the Pi Beta Phi sorority must be credited the winning of the women's intramural swimming championship. Because the preliminary meets presented uneven opposition, points won at these meets were not credited in the race for the championship, and Kappa Kappa Gamma will take third place instead of first as was originally announced.
Only points won in the final meet were used in the selection of the winner of the meet, Miss Ruth Hoover, assistant professor of physical education, announced today. Points won in the preliminary meets will be counted in the general contest for the all-year championship, but were not considered in choosing the winning organization; this led to confusion in yesterday's report.
The revised list of participating or-

Committee Approves Kilday Bill
CAKE
Washington (INS)—The house rules committee today approved the Kilday bill which would put fathers at the bottom of the draft list.
Following senate passage of the Bankhead bill granting deferment to agricultural workers, the house rules committee met for its long-delayed hearing on the Kilday bill placing married men with children at the bottom of the draft list.
Rep. Kilday, (D) Tex., sponsor of the bill designed to keep bona fide families intact as long as possible, has said he would accept any "reasonable" Fulner amendment deal with deferment of farm workers. In addition to giving fathers priority on the deferment list, his measure requires that draft quotas be exhausted on a statewide rather than a local draft board basis.
No Recordings For Public Use
Chicago, (INS) — Members of the American federation of musicians will not be allowed to resume making recordings for radio stations and juke boxes, James C. Petrillo, President, announced today following a meeting of the union's executive board.
The next move for settling the seven months' dispute with the recording industry will have to be made by the industry's representatives. Petrillo asserted.
In a letter to the industry Petrillo charged its representative with lack of "good faith, which requires submission of counter proposals."
Petrillo's plan of settlement, calling for a cash fee for every record made for public use, was rejected last month. Recording industry representatives said it was a "startling new kind of social philosophy for both industry and labor."

Social Security Report Recommends Expansion
Washington, (INS) — The Social Security board's annual report yesterday recommended an expanded social security plan which conforms exactly with proposals for the "cradle to the grave" program set forth a week ago by the National Resources Planning board in its controversial post-war plans.
The board's report called for steps to provide present and future protection, meet critical post-war unemployment problems, combat inflation and give the wage earner his "full money's worth."
Included in the report were recommendations calling for: extension of social security to farm labor, domestics, public employment, service for non-profit institutions and self-employment; protection of insurance rights of workers covered by the program who have joined the armed services; reduction of the retirement age for insured women workers from 65 to 60 and like age reductions for the wife of a retired worker, widows of insured workers; nationalization of unemployment compensation funds now administered by the state; extension of duration of benefit payments; additional benefits for workers with dependents; permanent and temporary disability payments and hospitalization insurance.
The board suggested that public assistance programs now covering
Speaker Stresses Textile Shortage
People are going to find a very definite shortage in clothing, Miss Haley, representative of the Celanese Corporation of America, said yesterday in her talk, "Clothing and Textiles in War Time," at a meeting of the Home Economics club in Fraser.
Although Miss Haley doubts that clothing will be rationed, she believes there will be numerous restrictions made at the source rather than the consumer.
Miss Haley emphasized that everyone's versatility and imagination will be his own happiness in being satisfied with his war time clothing.
For All Occasions Ride
Many materials which manufacturers have made since the war are better than the old ones and will last after the war, Miss Haley pointed out. Blends will be common after the war, but they will be made in such a way that no consumer will be able to tell what materials have been blended.

Censorship Imposed At Texas University
The house adopted a resolution, 07 to 25, calling on the university administration to "change or strengthen" its supervision of what goes into the newspaper "to prevent another such occurrence."
Austin, Tex., (INS) — Strict censorship of the Daily Texan, University of Texas newspaper, was demanded by the Texas legislature today as a result of its publication of an editorial regarded by the house of representatives as pro-Russian and aethistic.
The editorial in question, written by Sue Brandt, senior journalism student from Austin, was an exposition on the Stalinist theory of government which included the Communist ideal of abolishing the "seven deadly sins." One of these sins as listed by Stalin is religion; and the editorial commented that the communist theory as to religion "seems to be justified" when considered in the light of that nation's experience with the institution of religion.
Opponents of the resolution fruitlessly sought to explain that the writer of the editorial meant no reflection on religion as practiced in this country.

Concentration on European War Hinders MacArthur on 'Forgotten Battle Front'
With Wednesday's much-publicized conference among Lt. Gen. George C. Kenney, commander of the Southwest Pacific air force; Maj. Gen. Richard K. Sutherland, chief of staff for Gen. Douglas MacArthur; and the President, the question of who should be bombed first, Hitler or Hirohito, has been brought into the open.
It is not a sudden development, this. The Pacific has long been called the "forgotten battle front." How long it will remain forgotten will be the question up for discussion for many days to come.
That General MacArthur has been hampered from the first by a lack of supplies, and most of all planes, has been conceded by most authorities. That he has done as much as he has with as little as he has had to work with is a source of wonder and admiration by the men who have been closest to him and seen the difficulties he has surmounted. It seems these very successes may be held against him.
The remarkable results of the battle of the Bismarck sea, in which MacArthur's aircraft destroyed an entire Japanese convoy and knocked out of action 102 enemy planes, works against the plea for more American aircraft in that area. Kenney, no doubt, advanced the reasons why this accomplishment should not be taken as proof that there need be no sharp increase in the number of airplanes sent there.
The needs of our fighting forces in the South Pacific are apparent. Our big immediate problem is to smash the Japanese base at Rabaul. That base is the source of most of the expeditions sent out by the Japanese navy as well as being a concentration point for aircraft. Its loss would be the most serious blow administered to the Japs thus far in the war. Most recently comes the news that smashing air raids have been made on Jap-held Kiska in the western Aleutians and on enemy bases in the Solomons that may well be the prelude to America's spring offensive in the Pacific.
The problem is not an easy one to solve, with only so many planes and too many places where they are needed. To send more planes to the South Pacific we must take them from some other theater of war. It would have to be the European theater where, apparently, they cannot be spared from the softening up of Europe for the invasion.
The tendency of our strategists has been to concentrate on the defeat of the Nazi forces. It seems, however, that if a plan could be worked out without endangering our chances of victory in Europe, it would be the wiser policy to divert an increasing stream of supplies towars MacArthur and the South Pacific.
Today Marks Twenty-third Year Since Peace League Rejection
March 19 to most persons this year will be just another day on the calendar—the twelfth day before payday or the fourth day of depression after the income tax payment. Few Americans will remember back to 1920 when on this day the United State Senate by a vote of 49 to 35 rejected the League of Nations.
By such a simple act, America isolated herself and took a position whereby she not only refused to be a member of the League but helped to strengthen the feeling against her in Europe and to hinder recovery from the war. Whether or not the roots of the present conflict can be traced directly to the action on this day 23 years ago, is a moot question—but a clearer conscience would be America's today, perhaps, if the pages of history could be turned back and the result of this vote reversed.

Just Wondering
If victory garden vegetables won't think the aid to USSR program is being a little rushed when they sprout up to find this Russian winter.
--self and took a position whereby she not only refused to be a member of the League but helped to strengthen the feeling against her in Europe and to hinder recovery from the war. Whether or not the roots of the present conflict can be traced directly to the action on this day 23 years ago, is a moot question—but a clearer conscience would be America's today, perhaps, if the pages of history could be turned back and the result of this vote reversed.
Standing like Pilate before the waiting crowd, the Senate "washed its hands" of the affair, and America was left cuddled between her two oceans to enjoy her solitude and to ignore the future troubles of the world. Sitting like an assured winner after carrying home the bacon, the nation sat and licked her chops until the taste of victory was gone and she was embedded too deeply in the problems of another world conflict before she took action.
"History repeats itself" is a sad statement. The thought of "a lesson well learned is not forgotten" is far the more pleasant, but the choice of action is up to America.
March 19—just another day, but 23 years ago it started a sad story. What date could really have more meaning as the nation fights for the opportunity to erase an unforgettable error. What day should have more meaning when we go to write an unforgettable peace?

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
How college gets its reputation: Herbert (Tubby) Hawk dashed wildly for the phone. (Three jangles, and idle Carruth frosh are boarded.) Getting past the corner, he hit his knee—hard. He picked up the receiver simultaneously rubbing the injury with a free hand. It was sore. "Gawd damn," Hawk yelped by way of salutation at the transmitter. There was a frigid female cough and a still more frigid request for Joe Stockard. Joe's friend was the organist at the Baptist church.

You can't be both polite and prudent: Mary Margaret Reynolds, Chi Omega, was called to the phone.
"Hello," said Mary Margaret.
"Why, hello there!" boomed a male voice. "Remember the city?" (This is a conservative version of the story. Some accounts run, "Hi ya Mary bebe! Come to after the big town?") The voice then began requesting the following information: Get home OK? When are you going to the city again? Still got those big brown eyes? Bewilderedly remembering that her eyes are grayish, Mary Margaret suggested that the gentleman maybe didn't realize to whom he was talking.
"Why sure I do," was the reply. "You're Mary Margaret Reynolds. Hey, don't you remember me, Mary Margaret?" Mary Margaret began to wonder.
The solution, when it came out, was simple. On the bus from Kansas City to Lawrence last weekend Marion Montgomery and Marge Pollack told two sailors they were Mary Margaret Reynolds and Helen Watson, respectively, phone 731. The list of campuses hill freshmen multiplies.

Quick thinking: Dean Ostrum, Bob Stewart, and their Gamma Phi dates raced from the show to the bus stop at 60 per, arriving at said destination just in time to see the tail light of their bus disappearing around a far corner. It was after 10, a week night, and the boys were desperate. Spotting a casual acquaintance with a pair of car keys in the drug store, they hastily introduced the girls and shoved them unceremoniously into the strange but hill bound car. The boys then proceeded to call a taxi. It came promptly, and Dean and Bob rode in style to the Sigma Nu house, arriving at 10:25.

Concentrated hotfoot: Latest case of the dreaded malady (practical joking) has been reported in the Delt house. The diseased one spread nitrogen something or other (a liquid which dries into crystals which explode under the slightest pressure) on the dorm floor. Victim No. 1 was Steve Stimson.
Steve stomped into the unlighted room and came running out, sensing that with every step he was being blown into smaller bits. The chemical's potency really doesn't go beyond a loud noise and slightly burned shoes. It would all have been very funny, if Stimpson just hadn't been barefoot.

bitter and sharp. That's Kansas in the spring.
Usually one can be fairly certain of the weather if he looks out a window or steps outside, but such testing methods are not dependable now. If one lives off the Hill, he can swear that there is no wind and be correct. He can say that it's warm and bright outside and be correct. He can start the day by wearing a light coat or jacket and not be considered a bit off.

Going up the Hill from the sheltered downtown area is comparable to leaving the sheltered valley of Shangri-La. The top of the Hill seems to be pushed up against the sky; the wind sweeps across the campus; the temperature is degrees

If you're lucky, you may dash about the Hill not noticing any change in the weather. The sun came up in a clear sky, and the heavens still look bright and blue.

plan picnics. When a perfect spring day does slip in, you can't help but have ideas about an afternoon or evening in the country—a juicy-roasted wiener sizzling on a green cotton wood branch, campfire smoke curling in the breeze. So you and the gang decide to have a picnic Sunday. Saturday is a beautiful day; the sky is bright; there is no wind; and the sun sets in a clear sky. Even the weather report says that Sunday will be fair and warmer in the southeast portion. Things can't help but be right.
"Swell picnic weather. Might as well eat what I bought and forget we ever planned a picnic," you mutter, then eat the lunch and go back to bed.
Sunday morning you look out the window, and what the heck? You never saw such a black, dreary looking morning, and the wind beats against the window. It will either snow or rain, maybe both.

Filly Files Of Dobbin Nag Steaks In
Los Angeles, (INS)—Filet of Dobbin appeared for the first time yesterday on the dinner tables of Southern California gourments as a former dog food concern began peddling state-inspected horsemeat for human consumption.
The filly filets are ballyhooed by optimistic packers as being "cleaner, leaner and richer than beef." Three shops in Los Angeles county, dealing exclusively in choice cuts of horse, opened doors for business without benefit of an OPA ceiling. As president of the Victory Packing company, Hirsch considers himself a pioneer in patriotism.
Clement L. Hirsch, originator of the California Black Beauty market, declared that the best nag steaks were comparable to the finest New York cuts of beef.
"We haven't been able to get ceiling prices from the office of price administration," he said. "So we're selling horseburger for 25 cents a pound. Other prices vary."
Horse sirloin and T-bones, for instance, range in price up to 50 cents a pound.
As president of the Victory Packing company, Hirsch considers himself a pioneer in patriotically solving the acute West Coast meat shortage. His horsemeat slaughterhouse, he claimed, is the first on the Pacific coast. (One horsemarket has been operating in San Francisco—with the meat imported from points east.)

Kid Measles Is Plague Of Adults
East Oragne, N. J., (INS) — Wags are saying it's the work of the enemy, but health officials attribute it to an influx of war workers in this area.
Fact Orgone N. L. (INS) — Wags
German measles, it was disclosed today have increased at an unusually high rate in municipalities of Essex and Union counties.
Although normally a children's disease, the present outbreak is more prevalent among adults.
Industrial Development Commission Receives Grant
Topeka, Kan., (INS ) —The Kansas industrial development commission today was granted $200,000 to encourage inventors to develop devices to be used in promoting the use of Kansas products in industrial enterprises.
If the senate passes the house-approved measure, the commission will have a total of $500,000 to spend in the next two years.
Eden Opposes Post-War Plans
Washington, (INS) — Anthony Eden. British foreign secretary, told a group of high-ranking senators and congressmen today that he is opposed to the United Nations drafting a blue print of peace and post-war plans at this time.
This was revealed by Sen. Henrik Shipstead (R) Minn., who attended the conference.
Eden, Shipstead said, "gave diplomatic answers to diplomatic questions" during his conference at the capitol. Those present declined to discuss details of the conference.
Collegiate School of Nursing
"It was my impression that Mr. Eden believes that it would not be wise for the United Nations at this stage of the war to attempt to draw up the details of a peace program for a post-war program," said Shipstead.
Colby college recently established a collegiate school of nursing and a course for hospital technicians.
They Don't Twink
Stars Blink
Chicago, Ill., (ACP)—Yawning away their span of life, the vast systems of stars are undergoing a slow process of "relaxation," according to a theory presented by Professor Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar of the University of Chicago.
The stars' manner of relaxing is different, to say the least. No masseur's rhythmic pat—but the traffic on the heavenly highways slows down these stellar "bundles of nerves."
"Any given star," Dr. Chandrasekhar said, "because of occasional near misses while passing other stars, gradually will lose energy deflecting slower moving stars from their paths."
The systems, he said, spend a "lifetime" becoming relaxed. And what a life—10 trillion years for the Milky Way, the scientist believes. Its present age is 3,000,000,000 years—still in kindergarten.

Gen. Arnold Soon Will Go To England
(International News Service)
(International News Service)
A major step in prosecution of the all-out aerial warfare designed to bring down the German reich to destruction was taken today with the promotion of Lt. Gen. Henry H. Arnold to full generalship, and disclosure that he will leave shortly for England to aid in mapping out bombing campaigns against Germany
bombing campaigns against Germany.
With bad weather slowing all operations in Tunisia and a few major changes reported on the Soviet battlefront, the promotion of Gen. Arnold emerged as the chief war development of the day and lent added emphasis to the airmindedness of the United Nations.
This late move by President Roosevelt was interpreted by Washington circles as confirmation of the leak that the strategists of the United Nations' high command have definitely decided that Hitler must be defeated first and Japan taken care of second.
MacArthur Bombs Bases
Gen. Douglas MacArthur continued his steady bombing of enemy bases north of Australia. Allied bombers blew a Japanese submarine to bits at Lai on the island of New Guinea. Other enemy bases were raided on New Britain island and Surmata in the Panda Sea yesterday.
The chief development in Tunisia was a slashing bayonet attack by (continued to page five)
Instructors Graduate From 'Judo' Class
"Judo" instructors completed their training last week after many weeks of instruction under Lt. Russ H. Lay. Two men were chosen from each platoon to learn the "unarmed defense of the American soldier," after which they will return to their own units as instructors.
Of the many parts of the instruction, the men learned how to break body and wrist holds, and how to attack a sentinel at night. Lieutenant Lay believed so in "learning by doing" that some of his pupils received broken ribs.
Music Room Will Feature Beethoven And Enesco
Beethoven's Concerto No. 4 in D major and Enesco's Roumanian Rhapsody No. 1 in A major will be played in the music room of the Memorial Union building at 2:30 this afternoon.

Spring Begins Today As Weatherman Says It Will Be Warmer
With the official beginning of spring today came reports which promised warmer weather and no more moisture.
Spring, however, will find many patches of snow and ice, leftovers from the past week's unseasonable cold spell. Mild freezes were reported overnight from many cities.
Forensic Meet Draws Eight Universities
All University representatives for the annual Missouri Valley forensic meet to be held at KU next week March 25 to 27, have been selected
The meet will get under way with a banquet in the Union Building Thursday at 6.30. Howard E. Hill, chairman of the speech department at Kansas State, will be the toast-master.
Art Nelson, College senior, will represent KU in the oratory contest to be held Thursday evening.
John Waggoner, College senior, and John Adams, graduate, will uphold the negative side of the debate question, "Resolved: That Congress should pass legislation providing for the conscription of all men and women between the ages of 18 and 64 for armed service, agriculture, and industry." The affirmative debate team consists of Bob Plumb, College senior, and Bill Conboy, College freshman. Debates will be held Friday morning, Friday afternoon, and Saturday morning.

Wheeler Gives Reasons Of Increased Food Sales
Toher to Address Business School
Mr. Toher, formerly a labor dispute mediator for the United States Department of Labor, will discuss personnel problems and needs of his company, and will be available for conference with students interested in employment.
A gay spirit of play and carousing in an effort to compensate for war anxieties and tensions is one of the reasons for increased per capita consumption of food, according to R. H. Wheeler, professor of psychology. It is the good old theory of "eat, drink and be merry..."
All students are invited to attend, according to Dean F. T. Stockton, and the department is particularly anxious for women interested to be present since the new Pratt and Whitney plant for the construction of naval air craft engines will be one of the large employers among war industries of this area.
"I don't think it is sheer nervousness, for nervous people must eat less because of indigestion," Professor Wheeler said. He also said that increased drinking stimulates eating, but alchohol in moderate amounts acts as an appetizer.
said. Many people are working night shift and can't sleep well in the daytime. Their lack of sleep makes them want more food than
Another factor in our increased capacity for food is that we have had colder weather this winter than in normal year and when it is colder, we require more food.
Everyone is spending more physical energy d the more we work the more Professor Wheeler
Professor Wheeler listed other obvious reasons for the food shortage—lack of labor to harvest crops, more money being spent, and the urge to buy all we can for fear we won't be able to get the commodities later.

Woods Is Winner Of Gas Fellowship
Jack Woods, of Wichita, and a senior in chemical engineering, has been selected one of 17 winners of a fellowship to the Institute of Gas Technology in Chicago. These men, all of whom will have received their bachelor's degrees at the end of this semester, will begin the Institute's four year graduate training program in June.
These 17 represent 14 colleges in 10 states, and were selected from a group of about 150 candidates interviewed at 37 schools. The announcement of Woods' appointment to the Institute came through Harold Vaatborg, director.
Miss Ruth Polk, nurse on the staff of Watkins Memorial hospital, has been called to active duty with the Army Nurse Corps. She will report to Camp Crowder, Mo., Wednesday, March 31.
The fellowship includes an annual salary of $1135 to cover expenses. Work in the summer in the gas industry is a part of the required curriculum.
Part of the program of the Institute in the light of war needs is work on war research projects in the laboratory. One of the recent developments was a method of making synthetic rubber from gas.
Miss Polk Called To Service
The Gas Institute, established a year and a half ago, is a means of training men for the gas industry, undertaking fundamental and applied research, collecting and disseminating scientific information, and stimulating independent research throughout the country.
Helen Hovey, Delta Gamma, and Frank Lichty, president of the Engineering Council, presented her a slide rule to use as a scepter.
Miss Chapin, a college sophomore from Medicine Lodge, is the fifth Gamma Phi in seven years to be chosen by the engineers to reign at their Hop. Gamma Phi's were chosen in 1937, 1938, 1939, and 1941.
The Hop itself was described by Lichty as an "unqualified success." Some 300 couples, both engineering students and students from other schools, danced as Pope and Bachmann's band furnished the music. For the first time since the spring of 1940, the Hop was open to all University students and their dates.
Law students again failed to get revenge for the painting of their "Uncle Jimmie" Green by the engineers. It has been the custom for lawyers to attempt to kidnap the engineers' queen in retaliation for the insult to their statue.
Despite threats each year by the lawyers to steal the queen, records show no successful kidnapping effort in many years. Last year, just to add more difficulties to the kidnapping if attempted, the name of the queen was kept a secret until the coronation, and the secrecy was again followed this year.
House Committee Rejects Ruml Plan
The house ways and means committee described the Ruml tax plan as a threat to war morale, a stimulus to inflation and an injustice to the small taxpayer, declaring the scene "is like robbing Peter to pay a bonus to Paul."
The report was signed by a committee which does not favor the bill. The other committee would retain the present year-late payment system, imposting a 20 per cent withholding levy on pay envelopes to persons willing to pay two years' taxes in one year to get on a current pay-as-you go basis.
K-Book Staff Headed By Joy Miller, Editor Bill Norris, Manager
Final approval has been given to the appointments of Joy Miller and Bill Norris to the positions of editor and business manager of the K-book.
Chosen as assistant editors are: Janet Marvin, Beth Maxwell, and Donna Clair Jackson. Assistant business managers are: Glenn E. Gilpin, Ruth Tippin, and George Tiffany.

Service League Promotes Recreation
City's Clubs Plan Organized Playing
With the resumption of the Saturday night parties for service men in the Community building last night, there is new hope for the eventual development of an adequate city recreation program for the various groups needing non-commercial, leisuretime activities.
and game-room party for service men last night
The dance and game-room was sponsored by the wives of Navy enlisted men of Lawrence. The entire Lawrence recreation program, of which the service men's activities is a part, is being backed by the Community Service League, which is composed of the chairmen who for six months were responsible for the hospitality program for service men in Lawrence. One or two additional committees have been added.
Mrs. Stockton Heads Committee
Mrs. Frank T. Stockton is the general chairman of the Community Service League, heading nine committees: Chairmen of the committees are; George Hedrick, finance; Mrs. Deal Six, senior hostesses and activities; Mrs. George Hedrick, sponsors; Mrs. L. C. Woodruff, junior hostesses; Mrs Joie Stapleton, equipment; Mrs. Stockton, publicity; Mrs. E. L. Haynes Sunday hospitality; Mrs. E. E. Alexander, special courtesies; and Mrs. W. C. Boardman, Sr. food. Mrs. Robert S. Brooks will act as official director of the Saturday night activities. Kathryn Schanke and Lavon Jacobson, University students who have had training and experience in recreation leadership, will aid Mrs. Brooks as assistant recreation leaders.
Part of Long-Range Plan
Lawrence has become aware of its responsibilities in the provision of recreation facilities slowly.
These parties for the service men in Lawrence are only one phase of a long-range plan for the provision of Lawrence recreational facilities on a year-round, city-wide basis.
Until the spring of 1940, when the American Association of University Women instituted a summer recreation program for children, there was no organized recreation.
In 1941, the Parent Teacher Council joined the school authorities and the AAUW to form the Recreation Council to provide a summer recreation program for children on a more permanent basis.
The recently resigned mayor's committee on recreation, with which the Recreation is sometimes confused, was appointed to plan and direct a city recreation program supplemented by the Works Progress Administration.
Lack of Funds Hinder Program When WPA leadership and the services of a director were withdrawn the last week in January with the liquidation of the agency, the city program—of which the service men's activities were an integral part—had efficient and willing volunteer chairmen, but no funds with which to continue.

Subscription rates, in advance, $3.00 per year, $1.75 per semester. Published at Lawrence, Kansas, daily during the school year except Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, October 17, 1970, at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, under act of March 3, 1879.
NATIONAL EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION 1943 Active Member
No separate levy can be made for recreation under existing laws for cities of this type. The park commission, or committee, allocates funds for that purpose from its share of the city levy.
In the case of Lawrence, $1000 is earmarked for recreation expenditures, but it can cover only purchases or maintenance of permanent equipment or facilities. No money is available for the purchase of expendable equipment, nor for incidental expense.
USO Drive Aids Program
Because Lawrence guaranteed the county quota in the USO drive last fall, and the city went over the quota. 10 per cent of the quota may be used locally for service men's activities. Local civic groups which sponsor the weekly parties on Saturday night pay for the music, the refreshments, and provide prizes for the games.
Harry O'Kane, secretary of the University YMCA, is heading an investigation of the possibilities for developing other features of the city program such as special activities for teen-agers, Sunflower employees, and adult neighborhood center development. These recreation needs will be developed as soon as funds can be acquired.
American Ship, City Of Flint, Is Lost
Philadelphia, (INS) — The fabulous freighter, City of Flint, 4,963 ton American merchant ship once captured by a Nazi pocket battleship and later released by Russia has been lost.
The ship, a member of her crew reported today, was torpedoed without warning late in January with a loss of 17 of her 65-man crew. One and possibly two torpedoes did the job.

Paterson, N. J., (INS) — Iron ore yielding property owned by the late Baron Heitaro Fujita, Japanese financier has been taken over by the United States government and will be made to produce guns, planes, and ships for the war against the Jaws.
The property, a 1,622-acre tract, adjoins the famous Erskine Hewitt mines, which yielded ore iron from which George Washington made cannon, wagon wheel rims, and the huge chains to balk Britain's fleet in the Hudson river during the Revolutionary war.
The Hewitt mines have produced iron for military purposes in every war the United States has fought.
Dean Potts Appointed Commissioner Dean C. S. Potts of the Southern Methodist university school of law has been appointed regional war production board compliance commissioner for Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana.
University Raises Money
The University of Minnesota in the last fiscal year produced more than $5,500,000 by its own operations, a sum considerably greater than all state appropriations.
Legislature Stops Clock Once More
Stopping time is ordinarily considered impossible, but the Kansas legislature does it practically every year!
This year it was 11:45 p.m., March 18, for almost 24 hours in the legislature.
E. O. Stene, assistant professor of political science, explained that a resolution had been adopted that no legislation should take place after midnight Thursday night. When difficulties were reached which could not be straightened out before midnight, time was stopped to allow continued action. Professor Stene said that all legislation enacted during the "stand-still" period will be recorded as having occurred on March 18.
The session began its 33-hour deadlock Wednesday over a bill to regulate salaries of county officials. The Senate finally broke the deadlock about 9 o'clock Friday night by accepting a committee report which it had formerly rejected.
Navy Discloses New Base Outside U.S.
Washington, (INS) — Successful completion of a 3,000-mile trip by a blimp led the navy to disclose that a new lighter-than-air base for anti-submarine patrol work has been established outside the continental limits of the United States.
The navy declined to disclose location of the new base except that the motor driven "balloon" traveled by stages a total of 3,000 miles from the American base where it was fitted out. Others are expected to follow.
This distance raised the possibility that the blimp traveled somewhere to the South American coast from which American planes and warships, aided by Brazil, have been battling Axis submarines. This was not confirmed, however, by the navy.

Hobnail Hop Heads Weekend; Dorothy Chapin Chosen Queen
Saturday always highlights the weekend, either by a mass exodus or influx of students, service men, and guests. Perhaps choosing the queen of the engineers last night at the Hobnail Hop kept many here. Dorothy Lee Chapin, of Medicine Lodge and member of Gamma Phi Beta, was the lucky winner.
Last night the two informal lounge were fortunate to have' bands. The Hobnail Hop got the Bachmann-Pope band while the Inter-fraternity Council dance had Matt Betton of Manhattan and his orchestra.
Many sailors embarked on their journey to Kansas City pushing elbows with the crowd of students also on the way to the big city.

Rush for Easter Clothes Spring Is Here
A son, weighing 8 pounds 10 ounces, was born to Mrs. Allen Ewing Wednesday afternoon at Lawrence Memorial hospital. Mrs. Ewing is the former Betty Jean Abels of Lawrence who was graduated from the University in 1942. Last year she was society editor of the Kansan.
The baby's father has been receiving army training in Ft. Benning, Georgia, and arrived in Lawrence today. He expected to receive his commission yesterday. Ewing is also a former student and a member of Delta Tau Delta.
Spring is here, and women will think of clothes and of using their first coupon for necessary Easter shoes. One minister always welcomes his large Easter audience by wishing them Merry Christmas since he doesn't expect them back before the next Easter. Many believe the huge attendance of church on Easter
can be attributed largely to the desire of women to show off new Spring clothes.
Though Spring is the time for the rush to stores, the clothes rationing scare has sort of taken its place. But the nice weather incites women to run down and buy at least a hat—some frilly straw one to contrast the many copies of service men's hats.
Spring—please hurry, and come to stay.

"PHOG" IS RESPONSIBLE FOR NCAA
Many readers of Marx Cox's NCAA article in Esquire, which was summarized in this column Friday, no doubt noticed that Mr. Cox gives no credit whatever to our own Dr. Forrest C. Allen who actually was responsible for the 1936 Olympic elimination tournament out of which grew the NCAA tournament. Mr. Cox, former sports publicity manager at the University of Missouri, is offbase when he completely forgets the work of Dr. Allen in the history of the NCAA tournament.
Let's review briefly the history of basketball and see exactly how Dr. Allen fits into the picture.
Basketball was invented in 1891 by Dr. James Naismith while he was training at the Springfield YMCA College, Massachusetts, to become a physical education director. In 1898 Dr. Naismith came to the University to begin his duties in the department of physical education which he continued until his resignation in June, 1937.
Forrest C. Allen attended the University from 1905 to 1908 and played basketball under Naismith. From 1909 to 1910 Allen served as head basketball coach. From 1912 to 1919 he served a successful tenure of coaching at Warrensburg Teachers College. In 1919 he returned to the University as athletic director and in the middle of the basketball season of 1920 he was handed over the job of head basketball coach—a job which he has held ever since.
Through his many years of association with Dr. Naismith, "Phog" became instilled with basketball knowledge acquired from the venerable founder of the sport.
Meanwhile, unknown to most persons, basketball was being introduced to other peoples throughout the world through the efforts of YMCA missionaries who had become acquainted with the sport at the international YMCA training school, Springfield College.
Allen and the 1932 Olympics
In 1932 at the Los Angeles Olympics, Allen worked hard to get basketball as the home country's demonstration game which was not to count in final meet points. However, football was chosen for the demonstration game. But Dr. Allen was not discouraged. While in Los Angeles he discussed the possibility of having basketball for the 1940 Olympics in Tokyo with Japanese committee, notified Dr. Allen that basketball included in the Olympic leaders who also were at the Olympics.
In the summer of 1933, while teaching at Springfield College, Dr. Allen made the acquaintance of Fritz Siewehe, an exchange student from Germany. Upon Siewehe's return to Germany, Nazi athletic directors began teaching basketball in their Youth Movement.
Meanwhile Allen was also corresponding with Dr. Renalto Jones, gen-

Intramural Swim To Start Tuesday
(continued to page five)
The men's intramural swim meet will get under way at 4:30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon in the pool of Robinson gymnasium when the preliminaries are run off.
The order of the preliminary events are as follows:
50-yard breast stroke, 100 stroke, 50-yard dash, 50-yard back stroke, and the 200-yard relay.
50-yard breast stroke, 100-yard free style, 100-yard back stroke, 50 yard dash, 50-yard
Each intramural organization may enter three men in each event with each man eligible to participate in three different events. (The relay will be considered as an event). If the organization doesn't enter as such and men wish to compete, Henry Shenk, intramural director, said yesterday that those men may enter the meet as individuals unattached.

Basketball at the Olympics
Although glider flying was chosen as the home demonstration attraction at the Berlin Olympics in 1936, Dr. Karl Diem, member of the Olympic games. Dr. Allen then began the campaign which raised $7,000 to pay Dr. and Mrs. Naismith's expenses to the Berlin games where 22 nations played basketball before the misty eyes of the game's founder.
"Phog" was the chairman of the Olympic Committee and was also the coach of the United States Olympic basketball teams.
Thus, almost single-handedly, through his international correspondence and untiring work on the Olympic Committee, Dr. Allen made basketball one of the Olympic games. The national tournament in the United States, preceding the Olympics, was the direct forerunner of the present NCAA tournaments. "Phog" Allen was the father of the NCAA basketball tournament.

Wooden
ROTC Uses
Ersatz Guns
The wooden drill rifles made their debut last week when the University ROTC used them for the first time for regimental drill. "The rifles can deceive the best of them," said Lt. Col. Jack Gage, director of marksmanship, as he described their realistic appearance.
Since rifles are the most important single weapon in the war, a substitute had to be adopted for ROTC units. The rifle is modeled after the old style '03 but it is the same size as an M-1, or the new Garand semi-automatic rifle. Of the several metal parts the bolt is the only one that moves. The rifle can be carried or held steady while "firing" by the leather or canvas slings.
There is a metal sight cover on the wooden barrel, a stacking, swivel, metal trigger guard, and a painted upper-swivel. The rifle weighs less than four pounds.

Professor Kuersteiner Deserves Praise For Efforts in Entertaining Trainees
K. O. Kuersteiner, professor of violin and orchestra, is aiding in the war effort here at the University with one of the most essential needs of the armed forces now in training. That is entertainment. Proceeding unheralded and unacclaimed, Professor Kuersteiner has added his name to the long list of stars, musicians, comedians, and even common ordinary persons who are devoting time and talent to provide constructive recreation for trainees.
For such a program Professor Kuersteiner should be commended. Working with Lt. Frank P. Butorac, recreational director of the Naval Training School, the University fine arts professor directs a weekly program presented to an audience of sailors on Wednesday nights in the auditorium of Frank Strong hall. Also participating in such a program are other professors in the School of Fine Arts, professors in different departments of the University, majors in the School of Fine Arts, and other students of outstanding talent.
The program is designed to give to the naval trainees the type of music and talent they wish to hear. Popular music, novelty tunes, and vocal and instrumental ensembles are included on the program, and even the sailors themselves take part in the event.
Group singing is one of the features of each evening, and the sailors raise their voices in familiar tunes and make the programs informal hours of good entertainment and fun.
Arrangements for the programs must be made apart from Professor Kuersteiner's other work, but he gives them his personal time and attention. For such thoughtfulness and interest in trying to bring pleasure to the "boys," Professor Kuersteiner most certainly deserves praise and thanks.
A report from Japan says that all Japanese soldiers will now be required to learn to swim. They should concentrate on the backstroke.
Youth Needs Liberal Education To Develop Technical Knowledge
"The tendency," said Robert M. Hutchins, president of the University of Chicago, recently, "is more and more to drive out of the course of study everything which is not immediately concerned with making a living." Other educators have deplored the movement they see away from non-vocational subjects.
They say that complete courses in a single field may be given in much less time than four years by specialized vocational schools, if the desire only is to assimilate facts necessary for the securing of an adequate salary for the remainder of the student's life. Perspective, however, they claim, is equally important, for it is through courses providing such insight that we learn the worth-while application of our technical and scientific knowledge.
It is a strong argument for the continuation, and possibly the stimulation, of our liberal arts educational offerings. Men such as Wendell Willkie are declaring; "True freedom, freedom of the mind, can be achieved only through the liberal arts. This is what gives meaning to life."
Citizenship would be fostered by an impetus to liberal arts instruction at a period in which good citizenship is of the utmost importance.

Just Wondering
If other hospitals are following the example of Watkin's Memorial hospital by donating their quinine supply to the war effort.
Humanitarianism would be fostered at a time when understanding of the defeated, the oppressed, and the fellow victor is most essential. Actions would then not be superficial, but would have behind them a deep understanding an understanding which might serve to establish a lasting peace, and to make that peace a prosperous one for all of mankind.J.D.K.
A system of "youth arrest" — putting young men and women in jail over the weekend when they work slowly, refuse to work or "break their work contracts,"—has been going on in Germany for two years, the Office of War Information has learned, "and has proved worthwhile," a German newspaper claims.
"If we let the school deteriorate now, then try to save the situation after the war, it will be too late. In a democracy, education is important; in a dictatorship, it doesn't matter," comments Dr. Donald Dushane, executive secretary of the National Education Association's commission for defense of democracy through education.
People are going to find a very definite shortage in clothing, said a representative of the Celanese Corporation of America recently. According to some reports from vacation resorts, this has been going on for some time.

Statistics don't lie: A few weeks ago Joan Teed, Pi Phi, celebrated her 21st birthday. About a week later, in the company of Oliver Hughes, Sig Alph, she happened to mention the fact that she really should buy something for her parents since they were celebrating a wedding anniversary that day.
Oliver thought—birthday—anniversary!! He put a restraining hand on his eyebrows which were rapidly disappearing above the Hughes hair line. Joan herself gulped.
This item has a happy ending. A checkup later proved conclusively that it was the Teed's 22nd wedding anniversary.

What's in a name: Mary Eleanor Fry, Corbin hall, has rechristened her car and is very happy with her car's new name, Damja. Now instead of refraining with difficulty from the use of strong language when the machine won't start, Mary Eleanor can yell with a clear conscience, "Come on, Damja." Very satisfying. The "j" is pronounced as "y"—as in Latin.
And yet they get the scholarship cup: (or selfconfidence, the key to success) Don Deihl's head was nodding in the back of the room as the professor finished writing his second board of figures. The prof. turned and scratched his head. "There'll have to be some mathematical genius in the class to solve this problem," he said. Deihl suddenly jerked awake.

Hard Worker--At Writing ★★★ ★★★ 'Young Bill' White
A hard worker who doesn't know when to stop, but who's too lazy to walk a block or swing a tennis racket—that's "Young Bill" White, author, son of William Allen White of the Emporia Gazette, and student at the University from 1918-1920.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott, in school at the same time as
Chancellor Deane w. M.A.
White, describes him with a laugh as "always in a hurry, whenever I saw him," and possessor of a keen intellect. While in school here, he was a member of company B of the SATC, student training corps on the campus, and was a contributor to the Jayhawker and to the Daily Kansan.
After graduation from Harvard in 1924, where he was a member of the editorial board of the Lampoon and writer of a play for the Hasty Pudding club, White held various posts on the Emporia Gazette. In 1930 he was elected to the state legislature. In 1935 he served as editorial writer on the Washington Post; in '37, was on the staff of Fortune magazine; and in '39, made a broadcast from the Mannerheim line in Finland, for which he was awarded first prize by the National Headliner's club as the year's best European broadcast.
His Talk Was Basis For Play
"The Last Christmas Tree," the topic of his talk from the Mannerheim line, was used by Robert Sherwood as a basis for his play, "There Shall Be No Night." Mr. White and his wife were honor guests at the Broadway opening of the play.
They are now living in New York, with their adopted daughter Barbara, a war-orphan whom Mr. White brought back from England, leaving his luggage so he could bring her. Mrs. White is the former Kathrine Klinkenberg, a student at the University in the years '22-'23 and '25-'26. Mrs.P. H.Klinkenberg, housemother at the Delta Upsilon fraternity, is her mother
At present, Mr. White is on the staff of Reader's Digest and is also working on a new book to come out this spring. Although writing comes easily to him, he works hard at it, rewriting and polishing all his material many times. Author of the novel, "What People Said," published in 1938; of the war-time travel book, "Journey For Margaret," published in 1941; and of the best-seller, "They Were Expendable," he has also contributed to Life, the Atlantic Monthly, Cosmopolitan, the New Republic, and Saturday Evening Post.
Sees A Job Through
K. W. Davidson, director of information at the University and assistant business manager of the Emporia Gazette while Mr. White was business manager from 1932-1935 says that when Bill starts a job, he sticks with it until it's finished, no matter how long it takes. Absent-minded, fond of the bright lights, a man with no aversion to creating a minor disturbance, and one of the great literary figures of this age is the way in which Mr. Davidson sums up "Young Bill"

KU Coeds Report To Active Service
Thirty-six women who are former students or graduates of the University have reported to the Alumni office that they are now serving in the WAACs, WAVEs, or SPARs, but records are incomplete. One KU woman, Jean Luther, c'35, is in Africa with a mobile Red Cross Unit.
Mildred Ogle, college junior March 5, and has been deferred until May 17 so that she can finish her school year. Miss Ogle is at present a staff sergeant of CAP but will lose her rating on entering the WAACs.
Joy Howland, College sophomore will report to Hunter college, just off Fifth Avenue in New York City, for training in the SPARS on March 25.
Gladys Huber, Fine Arts '41, one of the 17 women from the University who have joined the WAACs, came here to recruit Hill women and to pass out WAAC literature on the first Saturday of February. Lieutenant Huber is an instructor in chemical warfare at Ft. Des Moines, Iowa.
Flora Sager, a senior in education,
left between semesters for training
in the WAACs at Des Moines.

Other WAACs who have reported their whereabouts to the alumni office are Margaret Parker, Fine Arts '42, auxiliary in Conway, Ark; Mary Lou Randall, College '41, officer's training school in Des Moines; Rita Brandt, Fine Arts '41, auxiliary at Des Moines; Jeanne Billeau, College '41, a lieutenant at Daytona Beach.

Rachel Gard, College 29, is in training for work jn USO centers in New York City.
Uniformed Women Doing Good Job Women in uniform are no longer a military experiment; they are undoubtedly doing good work. In some jobs-typing, switch board operation, clerical duty—WAACs not only relieve soldiers for combat duty, they also do the jobs better. But as an automobile driver one WAAC is equal to only three-quarters of a soldier because of having less physical endurance.
Nearest thing to combat duty is manning instrument detectors for anti-aircraft batteries.
Women have been volunteering at the rate of 4,500 a week lately. Present strength is about 45,000 including 14,000 who have graduated and gone to work, 202 of them to North Africa. General Eisenhower has requested many more.
WAVEs take a thorough course in naval law, naval traditions, naval organization afloat and ashore and take a thorough course in ships and aircraft. Four thousand WAVEs are now on active duty.
To Admit Freshman Class in June To permit boys to attend one or two semesters of college before they are called for military service, Rutgers university will admit a freshman class in June.
Name of Play Is Changed Again
Although leopards cannot change their spots, plays can change their names. This is certainly demonstrated by Professor Allen Crafton's all-girl play, "Distinguished Service."
Professor Crafton wrote the play, and then not having a suitable name in mind, had a public reading at which he offered $10 to anyone suggesting a title. None were offered, so the play became, "Valor Stood Beside Them," until something better was offered.
Last week, Professor Crafton did find something better, and the play became "Spring, 1942." Still not satisfied, the professor again changed the title, this time to "Distinguished Service." Commenting on this last title, Professor Crafton said, "It's a good name, even if I did pick it myself."
"Distinguished Service" will have a three day run March 30 and 31, and April 2. Reserved seat tickets will go on sale Thursday, March 25.
Dot, Dottie or Dorothy, she is still Lamour, although for the first time in many pictures she wears modern clothes and not a sarong. Co-starred with Bob Hope, she is part of the hilarious spy-hunt film, "They Got Me Covered," now at the Jayhawker for one entire week.

Services Take Over Organized Houses
The war has begun to cause changes in locations, as well as in numbers of organized houses of the University. Two fraternities and two sororites have included service men or women aeronautical engineers in their ranks, and one hall has disbanded entirely for the engineers.
Because of lack of numbers, the Jayhawk co-op disbanded and was consolidated into the John Moore and the Rock Chalk co-ops, and the house is now the home of the Kaw Koettes.
Leonard H. Axe, professor of economics, has completed a survey of all men's organized houses to discover facilities available in each. Parts of the houses checked were kitchen and dining facilities, dormitory space, and area of study room.
Since the army standards differ from those of the navy, it is impossible to make an over-all estimate of facilities available to house men, Professor Axe said.

Hi: No. 2
Two melodions and one of the first pianos made are on display in the small north gallery of Spooner- Thayer museum.

GARGAN LINDSAY
One of the melodions, made in 1840 by Nye and company of Vermont, was given to the museum by Mrs. William Miller of Lawrence. The other instrument, made in 1860, was lent to the museum by Mrs. Flora Boynton, office secretary of the endowment association. Both melodions are mahogany and were played by pumping the bellows in the back of the cabinet.
The piano was one of the instruments made from 1780 to 1800 by John Broadwood and sons of London. It was one of the first pianos made without pedals. The keyboard extends only about three-fourths of the way down the piano, and the strings and sounding board are at the back and left side of the instrument. The piano still plays.

Wm. Allen White Fears Aftermath
Chicago, (INS) — William Allen White of Emporia, one of the best known "small town" newspaper editors of the country. Friday painted a pessimistic outlook toward the future.
Speaking before the Executive club of Chicago, White, also known as the "sage of the prairies," said he was "seared because a complicated civilization is growing on this planet which I seriously fear will wipe me out, me and my kind—the little executive, the man who owns his own shop.
"I wish most heartily," he said, "that I could see one vista ahead of me, down one corridor, where I might believe that we old fashioned owner-executives . . . could walk in anything like security."
He declared he saw real danger of extinction for the owner-executive. He said he could not see how the owner-executive could survive the current machine age.
The owner of the Emporia Gazette, a paper he bought 48 years ago, added:
"We little executives are no longer individuals, and we may never be again . . ."
Labor Leader Condemns Plans for Protest Strikes
Topeka, (INS)—William C. Fox, president of the state federation of labor, has put his foot down on plans to stage protest strikes if the legislature enacts the bill regulating Kansas labor unions.
Mr. Fox issued a statement condemning the Coffeyville central labor body for threatening to strike, stating that any such protest action would be a violation of the law. Mr. Fox said he would retaliate by revoking the Coffeyville charter if the strike was called.

Red Cross Runs Out Of Bandage Material
The surgical dressings room of the Red Cross in the senior high school will be closed after Thursday until material can be sent from the St. Louis Red Cross center, said Mrs. Horey Hanna, director of the surgical dressings room.
The reason for the temporary closing of the room is that the quota of 39,000 dressings has been completed before the designated time, the first of April. Material for dressings is not available for a new quota at this time.
The room will be re-opened as soon as the supplies can be received. "I hope that volunteer workers will return at that time," said Mrs. Hanna.

Teagarden Signed For Prom
[The image is too blurry to accurately recognize text content. Please provide a clearer, higher-resolution image for me to transcribe and output it.]
Jack Teagarden's band will play for the Junior Prom, last all-school dance for the duration. April 10 in Hoch auditorium, Larry McSpadden, dance manager, announced today.
With entertainment being rationed the announcement that there would be a Junior Prom is socially sensational. Especially since dance bands are doing day and night shift to entertain service clubs.
Teagarden Played For Movies
The Teagarden band, featuring the Teagarden trombone, is the one which played for Bing Crosby and Mary Martin in "Birth of The Blues" and is big name excitement.
Tickets, $2 plus tax, will be on sale at the business office and in Bell's music store, 925 Massachusetts Street, beginning next week. To make the dance a success one out of every three men on the campus must attend. McSpadden said, because of the enrollment of men has been reduced to 1500.
PETER B. HUNTER
Larry McSpadden
Last year's Junior Prom featured Jimnie "The Jump" Lunceford of "Blues In The Night" fame; and in 1940 Jimmy Dorsey made money for the juniors with smoother stuff.
Teagarden combines jitterbug and smooth appeal, the choice of dance committee members Evelyn Nielsen, Virginia Tieman, Scoot Somers and George Worral as a band to provide a final fling worth remembering.
The prom is being backed by members of the junior class, who will aid with arrangements. Officers of the junior class are: Reed Whetstone, president; Betty Gsell, vice president; Marion Hepworth.
secretary; and Dietrich Gerber,
treasurer.
The "annual promenade" now shortened to "Junior Prom" first made publicity in 1912 when 350 couples, promptly at six o'clock attended a "farce" given by members of the Junior class. "The Beauty Machine," a burlesque on a musical comedy which according to the report was "really astounding." After the "farce" the guests "were ushered" upstairs to the main floor of Robinson gymnasium which "had been converted into a summer, green bowered pavilion." Hall's nine piece orchestra of Topeka furnished the music for the twenty-four dances. Toe Dance Featured in 1919
In 1919 Miss Reha McMurray of Kansas City, "celebrated toe dance" gave a "jazz toe dance" at the prom. "No flowers! No taxis! Nothing formal whatever!" screeched the
headlines before the 1919 prom.Carleton Cón and Joe Saunders with a 14-piece orchestra provided the music for this dance which announced "stags are not wanted." "Supper," the announcements also promised, "will be present if dress suits are not." The plans were to make the party one with all the frills of the pre-war prom, but formality was later sacrificed for food.
In 1926 Ronald Jetmore's 12-piece band played "enchanting strains" for the 150 couples who attended the Prom. "Elaborate decorations of subdued and hidden lighting effects, flowers, vines and a large yellow moon made an impressive effect..."
Bands may come and go, but from Jetmore's "enchanting strains" to Teagarden's "torrid trombone" the Junior Prom has been the top social event of the year.

The combined constitution providing for the one council system will be presented to the University students for vote.
Complete details concerning the qualifying tests for the Army and Navy (V-12) College Training Programs, have been received at the office of Chancellor Deane W. Malott. Dr. A. H. Turney, of the School of Education, is already receiving application forms—V-12 for the Navy, and A-12 for the Army—from

The Lawrence Memorial High School is cooperating with University authorities in administering the tests and high school students of this area will be able to take the tests at the University on that date.
These programs, army and navy authorities point out, present an opportunity to secure at government expense, an education largely equivalent to that which might normally be secured in a college course of equal length. Successful completion of one of these courses, may, following further officer training, lead to a commission in the Army or the Navy.
Training Courses Vary in Length
The programs offer training at the college level in a variety of skills and professions needed in the armed services. Th training courses vary in length from two to 12 temrs of 16 weeks each. Choice of institution and choice of course will be given every consideration, but cannot be guaranteed.
Students selected by the Army will be given 12-13 weeks of military training before beginning the College program. Students selected by the Navy will begin training July 1, or November 1, 1943, without previous military training.

Staff Committee To Study Changes
Appointment of a committee on curricula to study probable changes which the war will bring about in the program of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences in the post-war world has been announced by Dean Paul B. Lawson of the College. This committee will plan during the war years for the post-war world, and will make suggestions to the College faculty concerning needed changes. this republic ditit
At the suggestion of Dean Lawson, who feels that such an event as the present war is bound to result in new demands and emphases and in many changes in the work of the College, the appointment of the committee was authorized by the College faculty at its February meeting.
Seven Members Appointed
Members of the committee are Miss Viola Anderson, associate professor of home economics; Prof. John W. Ashton, of the English department; Prof. R. Q. Brewster, of the chemistry department; Dean Paul B. Lawson of the College; Miss Beu-lah Morrison, professor of psychology; Prof. W. E. Sandelius, of the political science department; and Assistant Dean Gilbert Ulner of the College.
Many people feel that after the war there will be the greatest demand ever for the type of training offered by the liberal arts college. One reason, as stated by James B. Connell, president of Harvard, in the Sunday supplement of the New York Times, Feb. 21, is "Personally, I have not the slightest doubt that the study of the liberal arts will not only survive this war but prosper in the days of peace.
"For one thing, the present fighting generation and the younger boys in school will be tired of hearing even the names of science and technology. When the time for the resumption of normal education returns, a sharp reaction toward studies of a different type, a resurgence of deep interest in the liberal arts among students themselves, would seem to be inevitable."
Conant Gives His Reasons
A second reason is given by President Conant, as, "But quite apart from a swinging of the pendulum, such as educators have seen so often in the past, I cannot imagine that

this republic could reject the tradition of the liberal arts. For a judicious blending of the study of man and nature is the only sure foundation of a free commonwealth."
A third reason for believing in this trend is the common feeling that Americans in much greater numbers than ever before will be working in foreign countries in all sorts of business, in professions, and in many government services, and for that training, the work of the college of liberal arts and sciences is essential, Dean Lawson said.
Chemical Director Says Big Things Lie Ahead for Chemistry
Los Angeles, (ACP)—That the lay world has small idea of the developments in chemistry and what the war will usher in is indicated by Dr. G. Ross Robertson, director of the chemical laboratories on the Los Angeles campus of the University of California.
Whereas in 1883 only 15,000 organi- chemical compounds were known, in 1936 the number rose to 350,000, and there are now more than 450,- 000.
"Undoubtedly large numbers of compounds are known to industries but are still being guarded as industrial secrets," says Prof. Robertson.
"Each arrangement of atoms found in organic compounds is absolutely precise as to number, weight and volume of constituent parts, and represents a chemical compound. A single combination, therefore, may occasionally represent a new ten-million-dollar industry."
BANQUET WILL---be held at 2 o'clock. The extemporaneous speaking contest will be held in the Green hall theater at 4:30 p.m Saturday morning, the meet will close with the fourth and fifth rounds of debate at 9 and 10:30 o'clock respectively.

Cafeteria Patron
★★★
Can Buy Butter
The butter situation need not cause any worry among cafeteria patrons, Miss Hermina Zipple, dietitian for the Union building, said yesterday.
The freezing of butter for this week applies only to individual consumers, not to places, like the cafeteria which are classified by the ration board as institutions, she added.
When rationing does begin March 29, however, the Union cafeteria will be rationed on butter, meat, oils, and chees just as it was rationed on sugar and coffee before, she believes. Those places classified as institutions are rationed in proportion to the amount of the rationed food they used during December.

"Now that they have decided on new duties for me, I will do them wholeheartedly and the best I can."
Kyser, who will be 38 years old June 18, did not ask the deferment. It was sought by the Office of War Information "in order that he might carry on important work for the OWI."
and associate host of the convention. Professor Buehler, of the University speech department, will be the host.
For the first time in the history of the forensic meets, women have been allowed to participate. Last year the meet was held at the University of Wichita.
The topic for debate is: "Resolved: That Congress should enact legislation providing for universal draft of men and women between the ages of 18 and 64 for war production, agricultural and armed services."
Schools participating are the Universities of Oklahoma, Nebraska, Wichita, Texas, Iowa, South Dakota, Kansas and Kansas State College.
Many University students are going to be eating butterless toast and bread before the end of the week, if predictions of housemothers mean anything. Almost every organized house was caught with inadequate supplies of butter and other edible fats and oils, sales of which were suspended for one week beginning Sunday at midnight.
Fats Freeze Hits OrganizedHouses
Fraternities, sororities, and all organized houses at the University are classified as group one users of rationed food articles and so will not be able to purchase the rationed foods until next Monday morning, said an official of the Douglas county ration board this morning.
Hitler Begins To Pay Penalty For Decision
Adolph Hitler began to pay the price today for another of his intuitions—his decision to fight it out in Tunisia against overwhelmingly superior American and British forces.
In a masterpiece of timing and coordination, American troops under George S. Patton and Gen. Sir Bernard Montgomery hammered and slashed at the Axis under the heaviest aerial offensive in the history of warfare.
Pictured For Eisenhower
This was the picture flashed from Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's headquarters in North Africa as the big push swept into high gear.
1. Gen. Patton's crack division captured the town of Maknassy only 50 miles from the sea, and swept on toward the coast.
2. A strong armored and infantry column of the British eighth army struck northward across the wastes after flanking the Mareth line and advanced to a point only 20 miles due east of Gabes.
3. The Germans counterattacked at Hakjeb-el-aioun on the main road to Karoun in a desperate effort to cut off the Americans before they reach the sea.
4. A similar Nazi counterattack against British positions in the south was hurled back and 1700 prisoners taken.
With the RAF on the move against the Nazi U-boat base of St. Naireia in northern France and Russian troops advancing toward Yartsebo which guards the roads to vital Smolensk theAxis was on the defensive on all battlefronts.
Pittsburg Reservists To Report
Fifty-one army reserve students at Pittsburg State Teachers College have been ordered to report for duty the first week in April.
— BUY U.S. WAR BONDS —
Family Units Use Most
Group one users are family units, and University residence groups are merely pooling their coupons and ration books, he stated. Therefore, all rulings which apply to families apply to these houses.
Restaurants may still purchase the rationed articles, but to come under restaurant classification, 80 per cent of the persons eating at a place must be transient.
This morning at least one dairy for a while sold butter to organized houses on the supposition that they would be classified as restaurants or commercial users. However, they later received a ruling from the local ration board and stopped selling it.
Phi Gam's Bought Butter Today
Phi Gamma Delta, according to Mrs. C. A. Thomas, housemother, will have butter for a while because a dairy, sold them some this morning.
Several sororites report that they will be limited to one pat for each person a day, or a pat per person per meal. Corbin hall has been limited to one-half pat per woman since last fall.
Chi Omega's won't get any butter on their toast any longer, stated Mrs. Edith Martin, housemother, and substitutes will be used for seasoning. This latter expedient has become an almost universal practice among food planners for University students.
Residence Halls Buy Quantities~
Men at the University reside halls will continue to have butter, since their food is bought in quantity lots for four houses and there were adequate supplies on hand for them. Housemothers there are urging the men to "go easy" on the butter, however.
At the Alpha Chi Omega house it's a different story. Mrs. Alma Sutherland, housemother, reported that the Alpha Chi's would be out, definitely, by the end of the week. Delta Gamma's will get one or one-half pat per woman once a day, according to their housemother.

The annual formal banquet of the Jay Janes was held last night in the Kansas Room of the Memorial Union to elect new officers and initiate members. Margaret Butler was elected president for the coming year and Caroline Baker, vice-president. The honor initiate is Ruth Kelley, whose name will be engraved on a gold bar and hung under the Phi Sigma Chi plaque. Runners-up Alice Goff. $ ^{6}$
Florence Harris, and Mary Martha Hudelson received corsays as well as Miss Kelley.
Looking ahead now, the seventh mid-week this year will be held in the Memorial Union lounge tomorrow night, and those attending will dance to the music of the Bachmann-Pope band. Mid-weeks seem to draw larger crowds than other dances, proving the popularity of entertainment in the middle of the week. This may be due to the absence of a great many students over each weekend. Tomorrow night there doesn't seem to be any rival swimming meet or fire, so the at-
wrining feet or like to be use a
adduct is expected to be large.

Equitation Hardens Coeds For Wartime Service
Women can show their physical endurance if they have to or if they want to and this year are doing so in more ways than ever before. Equitation classes, now exclusively female, are run to teach endurance and skill as well as for enjoyment.
The two day trip to Topeka last fall demonstrated that the coeds could take a hard riding trip complete with bad weather rain and sleet. This spring $ ^{ \textcircled{1}} $
picnics on horseback have been given and more are planned for the future. Then the advanced classes are learning to ride army style—even to the exercises on horseback.
Horses have been drafted on both coasts for patrol work. According to Gayle Mott, head of the University equitation program, work in defense and patrolling will soon be started. Rough cross country rides toughen coeds, and soon there will be riding through fire so as to show the women what to do if they come across a fire when on civilian patrol.
Many find equitation, fun and spend extra time on horseback. Riders wear slacks, blue jeans, or anything that is comfortable. They learn to feel at home on a horse and ride for the enjoyment—trying tricks and imitating the riders in western movies. Sleigh rides in winter and hay rides in fall and spring not only are loads of fun—they teach women how to direct
and drive teams which may come in useful sometime.
KU has gone to war in recreation as well as in studies. Combining pleasure with work, women are becoming more fit and liking it.

INTRAMURAL SPORTS CONTINUE
Intramural sports are continuing on the campus despite a constant drain on the manpower supply by various branches of the Service.
Tonight in the pool in Robinson gymnasium the preliminaries of the men's intramural swim meet begin at 4:30 o'clock. Although the caliber of competition is not what it has been in the past few years, interest in the meet has not dwindled.
"CARRY ON"
$$
***
$$
"Carry on" is the motto that has been adopted by the department of physical education—at least for the remainder of the present semester. And that is just what is being done along all lines of intramural sports. Fewer teams will be competing in the spring sports, track, softball, handball, tennis, horseshoes, and golf, but at least those men remaining on the campus, who do not care for varsity track or baseball, will have a chance to use up their extra energy by participating in and making the most of the intramural sports.
SPORTS NEXT YEAR
***
If there are any men left on the campus at all next year, it is likely that the department of physical education will form an athletic conference from teams made up of members of the student body. This conference with teams organized for the whole school year, would have its own football, basketball, and softball teams. Each team would have for its coach some physical education faculty member.
If such a plan were carried out for the duration, then, when the war is over and University functions return to normal, it would be easy to switch over to sports on a large scale with competition again between the present members of the Big Six.
Invitations Are Sent for HS Meet
Invitations have been put in the mails to Kansas high schools for the 39th annual interscholastic track and field meet to be held in Memorial stadium at the University of Kansas on Saturday, April 17. This meet, ordinarily held the day before the annual Kansas Relays, will be staged alone this year since the
Relays have been cancelled because of war exigencies.
In spite of demands of the war, athletic officials at the University are expecting a flashy list of entries for this 39th staging of the interscholastic games. The cream of the track talent from the eastern half of the state is expected to be present in Memorial stadium on April 17, and it is hoped that Hutchinson, Wichita East and North, and other strong teams from the western counties will be here.
Last year's team champion in the class A division was Hutchinson with 30 points, closely pressed by Wichita East, with 27. Topeka was third, Atchison, fourth, with Wellington, Ft. Scott, Wyandotte, Pittsburg, Leavenworth, Clay Center, ElDorado, Shawnee-Mission, Bonner Springs, Iola and Wichita North following in that order. The Salthawks from Hutchinson, were paced by Mente Waldecker, who finished first in three dash events. It was Hutchinson's second team championship in as many years.
Class B honors last year went to Mount Hope, with 28 1-2 points, only one and a half points in front of Enterprise which gathered 26. Ashland with their ace sprinter Grimes copping the three dash trophies, finished third with 17 points. Following in order were Baldwin, Blue Rapids, Overbrook, Valley Falls, Peabody, and the Kansas School for the Deaf.

Norcross Leads Broadjumpers
Ames, Iowa.—According to an Associated Press poll Everett Norcross, Iowa State College junior from Poughkeepsie, N.Y., is the leading broadjumper in the nation.
The survey lists the 23 feet 4 3/4 inch jump which set a new Big Six record at Kansas City last month, as the best mark made in a major meet this year.
Norcross will have no chance to improve on his national leadership since he is scheduled to report to the army next month with other members of his junior ROTC class. He has not been beaten in his pet event this year.
Little Hope For Big Six Competition
College Woman Gets More Than Just Fruit When Picking Apples
A torn scrap of newspaper has resulted in a correspondence between Anne Bolivar, Westminster college co-ed, and United States army sergeant 6,000 miles away in New Guinea.
Prospects for varsity baseball competition with other Big Six teams are very remote, Forrest C. Allen, baseball coach, announced today.
However, several games will probably be scheduled with the Fort Leavenworth team with whom Ray Evans and Otto Schnellbacher, former Jayhawker basketball stars, are already practicing. The Army nine has scheduled several games with the Kansas City Blues of the American Association.
Plans are being worked out whereby the Jayhawkers will play a team from the Naval Machinist's Mates Training School on the local diamond. The sailors haven't begun any regular baseball practice because many of them are still playing basketball.
The Kansas squad is short on material again this year as it has been in other years when the Jayhawkers seldom finish in the first division.
It all started when the sergeant found Anne's picture on a piece of old American newspaper in the steaming, rain-soaked jungle. Since he hadn't seen a woman in a long time, the sergeant decided to write to the pretty co-ed.
Short on Material
The last five seasons Kansas has never finished higher than third place in Big Six standings. In 1938 with Ralph Conger coaching the squad, Kansas finished in last place with a record of three victories against eight defeats. The next year, however, Conger produced a good team which finished the season in third place. This 1930队 was the best Kansas team which has been seen in recent years.
In 1940 Mike Getto, former freshman football coach, took over the duties as coach of the baseball team. The Kansas nine failed to click and, as a result, finished in the cellar

New Bulletin Published On Prospecting Methods
New and more rapid methods of prospecting for zinc and lead ores much needed in the present war program, are described in a bulletin just published by the State Geological Survey of Kansas and the University Engineering Experiment Station. The report was prepared by J. J. Jakosky, Dean of the School of Engineering at the University and Director of the
Experiment Station, and R. M. Dreyer and Clyde Wilson of the Geological Survey staff. It reports the results of electrical resistivity, geothermal, geochemical, magnetic, and gravinometric surveys conducted in the tri-state zinc and lead mining district, particularly in Cherokee county, Kansas. Methods that can be used to guide test drilling operations are pointed out.
The field work on which the report is based was carried on during the summer and fall of 1941 by the Geological Survey and Experiment Station in cooperation with the Tri State Lead and Zinc Producers' Association and the Kansas Industrial Development Commission. Maurice Wallace, of the Geological Survey staff, made spectrographic analyses of soil samples to determine the metal content of the material overlying the ore bodies.
This report is of special significance at the present time because of the great need for zinc in war industries. In order to supply the ever increasing demand for this metal, faster methods of exploration for ore bodies must be used. The authors have developed new methods that may prove of great importance in this respect.
WPB Will Bring Back Few Consumer Items
Washington, (INS) Donald M. Nelson disclosed today that WPB is planning to bring certain consumer items back into production to aid in maintaining "a strong and healthy civilian economy."
The War Production board chairman cited domestic refrigerators as one of the items receiving careful consideration and recalled that WPB already has authorized manufacture of 1,700,000 "Victory model" alarm clocks, the first of which will be on sale about April 1.
"We are making studies constantly on what items which have been cut out need to be brought back into production," he said. "We plan to reconvert plants if war production will allow it and we need the item."

Dent Is Head Of Visual Work
Ellsworth C. Dent, former head of the University bureau of visual instruction, has been appointed general manager of the Society for Visual Education, Inc., Chicago, it was announced by Miss Marie Witham, president of the society. He will begin his new duties in April.
After receiving his early education at the Kansas State Teachers' College of Emporia, Mr. Dent did graduate work in education here while in charge of the bureau of visual instruction, a service organization for the schools of Kansas.
During his ten years at the University, he expanded the visual instruction services to meet the growing needs of the schools, including the establishment of one of the first loan libraries of educational slide-films.
Mr. Dent is known for his demonstration-lectures on the applications of visual aids to instruction. He has written numerous articles on visual aids to instruction in educational and trade publications.
Miss Witham, president of the visual society, said, "The addition of Mr. Dent to our organization will place us in a better position to serve the training units of the armed forces until the war is won. At the same time, his broad experience will aid us in making appropriate plans for the expected post-war increase in the use of visual aids and equipment among schools, churches, homes, and in industry."
Edmonds Discussed Pressure Techniques At Physics Colloquium
The topic of Mr. Edmonds discussion was "Techniques in the Field of High Pressures," in which he described means of creating and measuring pressures as high as 687,000 pounds per square inch.
Vaughan W. Edmonds, assistant instructor in physics, spoke before the regular physics colloquium yesterday.
Pressures of this order are now being used by scientists in the study of polymorphic transitions, Mr. Edmonds explained. Mr. Edmonds stated, as an example, that ice, under a pressure of 30,250 pounds per square inch, increased in density, and melted at a temperature in excess of 350 degrees.

'Racial Differences Are Only Skin-Deep'
Biologically there are few racial differences between peoples and the whole question of race—a human invention—has been darkened by propaganda, believes a University of Chicago educator.
"Skin color, hair form, and the shape of the nose and lips enter into our awareness and become connected with our attitudes and judgements," Dean Redfield says.
Deep inside the human bodies there are few racial differences—they're mostly in the outermost layer—in opinion of Robert Redfield, dean of the university's division of social sciences.
"Yet, except in terms of the attention paid to them, these characteristics have no consequence in human behavior.
"The anthropologists tell us that the Jews are not a race. They are not a biological race because the people known as Jews are not enough like each other and are too much like other people to be such a race.
"But as people act with reference to Jews they are a socially supposed race. Thus, the beliefs of people about the physical features of race become a sort of false science, that might be termed a modern mythology."
"The people of this country are determined to win this war," he said. "It is clearly to their own interest to do so. Yet white men stop work in war industries because Negroes are employed to work beside them, and the best man for a wartime position may be passed over because he is a Jew."

Case of Walter Gudert May Be Broader Than That of German Sympathizer
German-born Walter E. Gudert, a Lawrence accountant, is facing cancellation of his naturalization as a United States citizen, after proceedings were filed in the federal district court at Topeka last week by the U. S. District Attorney. The action is based on the charge that Mr. Gudert is an alleged Nazi sympathizer.
After an investigation by the FBI, it was revealed that a statement by Gudert to his local draft board asked that he be listed as a conscientious objector. He said, "I believe in the Christian standard of right and wrong: 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.' It is my honest conviction that this war against the have-not nations is a flagrant violation of this principle, and that I, being a German, would perpetrate a hideous crime, if I supported in any way this attack upon my own people."
Such beliefs and statements to Mr. Gudert are, no doubt, a religion. The sincerity of a man making such a comment while the country in which he resides is at war with his homeland can not be questioned. He believes he is right; he lives by his ideals.
For an American, however, it is easy to realize that Mr. Guder's ideals are not even consistent with those of his fatherland today. "I believe in the Christian standard of right and wrong: 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you'," he has said. Still, Goering has stated, "Our business is not to do justice but to destroy and exterminate." Dr. Joseph Goebbels has declared in Der Angriff, "The only instrument with which one can conduct foreign policy is alone and exclusively—the sword."
Hitler himself has said, "Two worlds are in conflict, two philosophies of life . . . one of these two worlds must break asunder." For Mr. Gudert—he must choose one of two worlds he can not live in one and defend the other.
Gudert in a letter to District Judge Hugh Means said that he might have become a citizen under a misconception of what citizenship obligations meant. Perhaps this is where the trouble is. How many more Mr. Gudert's are there in America, claiming United States citizenship without full understanding of what it means?
America at times has been lax with the naturalization laws, allowing foreigners to become citizens when their knowledge of English was small, granting citizenship to persons who did not know the complete obligation they were taking toward flag and country. Now in wartime, the procedure may be more strict, but the Mr. Gudert's have already taken their oaths, the papers have already been signed, and misunderstandings and misconceptions have gone unmentioned.
Perhaps Mr. Gudert's entrance into the "wrong" world can be traced to other sources, and maybe this case is too broad for words of "unpatriotism" and "Nazi sympathizer."
It is reported that Mme. Chiang Kai-shek was asked at a press conference recently if she was going to take Mrs. Roosevelt back to China with her. That might be carrying lendlease too far.
Just Wondering
If voters realize that Congress has a much higher percentage of absenteeism than the worst industrial plant. Don't politicians think their work is "essential?"
Tomorrow Marks Signing of Law Promising Freedom to Islands
Tomorrow will be March 24,1943. Nine years ago tomorrow Congress enacted the Tydings-McDuffie Law. Nine years ago tomorrow the President affixed his signature to it.
The Tydings-McDuffie Law is almost unique in the history of nations, an act to set a people free. Under its provisions, the Philippines and the Filipinos would have achieved independence in ten years. The Japanese may have interfered with the timetable, but they can never quench the passion of the Filipino for freedom.
On Jan. 17, 1933, Congress passed over the Presidential veto the Philippine Independence Bill, submitting to a referendum of the Philippine voters a proposal for independence, effective 10 years thereafter on lines laid down by Congress. But the Philippine legislature rejected the Bill.
Then, on March 24, 1934, Congress enacted the Tydings-McDuffie Law, which was free from various features to which the Philippine legislature had objected, and the latter accepted it on May 1, 1943; in January, 1935, a convention in the Philippines drafted the constitution of the "Philippine Commonwealth" to provide for the government of the Islands during the ten-year period.
Before the outbreak of the war, the Philippines were governed by a dual instrument, consisting of a permanent constitution (subject to the usual powers of self-amendment when full sovereignty is achieved) and an Ordinance governing the relations between the United States and the Commonwealth for a period of 10 years from Nov. 15, 1935. When the Ordinance lapses (on July 4, 1946), the Commonwealth automatically takes over full sovereignty and becomes "the Republic of the Philippines." On May 14, 1935, this dual instrument was ratified overwhelmingly by the Philippine electorate, both men and women, at a national plebescite and came into force Nov. 15, 1935.
The Philippine Islands were invaded by the Japanese on Dec. 10, 1941. On May 7, 1942, Corregidor fell. It has been the vow of Gen. Douglas MacArthur that he will return to reconquer the Philippines. May he achieve his goal before July 4, 1946. The United States dislikes to break its word.—J.G.

Life's little disappointments: On the Phi Gam steak fry last Friday, for the first time this year, Randy Moore got up nerve enough to hold Jane Woestemeyer's hand. The floor of the cabin was crowded and the light of the fire dim, so Randy held hands not just a little, but all evening. Every once in a while he gave the hand in his an affectionate squeeze. Always his hand was squeezed back—just a little. It was lots of fun and Randy was just telling himself that he must do this more often when the party broke up and he found himself clutching the paw of an hysterical Vic Costello.

Beverly Waters dressed rapidly in all of her sweaters (ten). In a moment of heroism she filled two buckets of water, but between the fire and the sweaters she was forced to abandon one bucket on second and one on first before reaching safety outdoors. Marion Ransom fell into both buckets while making her exit in two fur coats.
Mary B. Flint appeared on the porch three minutes after the alarm clutching the picture of Bob Steeper, her fiance, and several pieces of her silver collection. She was still asleep.
The firemen were rather distracted by so many girls in such informal attire, but they did their best. The fire started on two old mattresses in the basement. It would have been reported earlier only the house man who was sleeping on them didn't wake up.

Big business: No one is supposed to think when Bettie Cohagan appears at a mid-week in the near future escorted by Bob Timmons that the blind date agencies of Kappa Alpha Theta and Beta Theta Pi have been on a bender. Although Bettie is six feet tall with heels, and Bob can't see over a five foot wall, both parties know what they are doing. Especially Bob. Beta actives once bet him a considerable sum that he would not (or could not) have a date with Bettie.
Good looking outfit you have there: Merrill Jones, Kappa Sig, and Gerald Tewell, A. K. Psi, just happened to sit by each other in the show Sunday night. Merrill was with his customary date, Theta Shirley Bayles and Gerald was with "the boys." The two groups left about the same time and met again at the bus stop—at which point Jones began noticing how familiar Tewell looked, and Tewell began noticing how familiar Jones looked. About half way home it dawned on them that they were wearing each other's coats.
War Hits Jayhawk Co-op Pioneer in Field
By PAUL BROWNLEE
The Jayhwak Co-op has gone to war.
With the drafting of students, the calling of the reserves, and the normal decrease in enrollment hitting the men's co-operative houses on the Hill as well as other groups, the three houses reached the situation where consolidation for the duration was
the only solution. So the Jayhawk Co-op was selected as the house to dissolve.
Located at 1614 Kentucky, the Jayhawk Co-op was the nucleus of the co-operative movement on the campus. Out of the Jayhawk, the University of Kansas Student Housing Association evolved and began the current year with six co-operative houses under its wing.
Kermit Franks, John Moore, Y secretary at the time, Bob Fluker, Keith Martin, Luther Buchele, Ed Price, and many others gave the Jayhawk the push needed to begin the co-operative movement.
The Jayhawk was organized in the fall of 1939 by a group of independent students looking for economical, wholesome, and fraternal housing accommodations on the Hill.
After the Jayhawk had received the enthusiastic approval of its occupants, the co-operls admitted new members, split their group at the Jayhawk, and moved part of the membership to 1409 Rhode Island
and organized the Rock Chalk Co-op in the spring of 1941.
After the Rock Chalk was organized, the members, aided by Hilden Gibson, associate professor of political science and sociology, saw the need of a body empowered with the right of stabilizing rent between the houses and of providing a central system for the financial and legal set-up of the co-operative houses. The result was the University of Kansas Student Housing Association.
The association now has six members—Jayhawk Co-op, Rock Chalk Co-op, John Moore Co-op, and three women co-ops, Jay Coeds, Kaw Koettes, and Harman Co-op.
Two weeks ago the Jayhawk boys voted to merge with the John Moore and Rock Chalk Co-ops for the duration, after the Kaw Koeffes had volunteered to move from 1138 Mississippi to the Jayhawk and keep the house intact for the duration.

Final Program . . .
Musical Organizations Finish Vesper Series
By JEAN JONES
Despite seriously depleted ranks, the principal musical organizations of the University combined to give the final all-musical Vespers Sunday afternoon in Hoch auditorium.
The University Symphony Orchestra, directed by Karl Kuersteiner, opened the program with a well-integrated reading of the bardic-like "Finale" from Hanson's "Romantic Symphony." fications included s
The Men's Glee Club responded to Joseph Wilkins' incisive beat with smoothness and precision in "John Peel." (English hunting song) "The Creation," (Richter) and "This Is My Country," (Al Jacobs).
String Quartet Performs
The University String Quartet composed of Walderam Geltch, first violin; James Lerch, second violin; Dean Donald M. Swarthout, cello; and Karl Kuersteiner, viola, occupied the third spot on the program by offering interpretations of Ernest
Bloch's plaintive "Dusk" and sophisticated "Rustic Dance," and two sketches from "In the Mountains."
Irene Peabody led the University Women's Glee Club in three numbers, "Under the Greenwood Tree," (Arne) "Fresh Spring," (Kernochan) and "Christ Went Up Into the Hills," (Hageman). Of the three diversified items, "Under the Greenwood Tree," was distinctive for its freshness and vitality. The soprano solo by Virginia Gsell in "Christ Went Up Into the Mountains" sustained the number well.
Choir Presents Three Numbers
Dean Donald M. Swarthout's University A Cappella Choir repeated its success of several weeks ago in Kodaly's dramatic "Jesus and the Traders." The wowe a rich tonal tapestry in Rist's "O Darkest Woe," assisted by David T. Lawson, baritone, and Dorothy Mae Nelson, soprano.
The University Concert Band, univer the direction of Russell Wiley, provided a fine climax to the program by playing the artful and lithsome tunes of Weinberger's "Czech Rhapsody."
Roger's "The Star," with organ accompaniment by Laurel E. Anderson, was full of fruity chords and pleasing humming. Arleene Nickels capably handled the soprano solo.

Labor Bill Is Signed Today By Schoeppal
WAR HITS---at
Topeka, (INS) — Governor Andrew Schoepel today signed the controversial labor control bill placing all labor unions in the state under strict supervision.
The Governor, who received the bill last week from the legislature, signed it only 12 hours after the legal deadline set by the attorney general's office.
The new law bitterly fought by organized labor, which at the last minute volunteered to submit to most of the provisions, prohibits sit down strikes, licenses, business agents, and makes compulsory periodic reports to the state on dues and assessments levied on union members and also calls for a statement of salaries paid to organizers and other expenditures of the union.
The law was the only one of statewide and national importance enacted by the legislature which is to formally adjourn today.

Begin Specialized Aeronautic Study
Specialized training began Thursday for all women aeronautical engineers who work, study, and add a feminine touch to Marvin hall and the Aeronautical Engineering building behind it.
These women, most of whom came to the University at the beginning of the second semester, are employees of either Beech
Aircraft in Wichita of North American Aviation in Kansas City. Last week after they had completed their preliminary training, they were each interviewed by Prof. H. S. Stillwell, head of the aeronautical engineering department, to find out what work they wanted to specialize in for the next eight weeks.
Professor Stillwell said that the women's choice of specialization and the recommendations of his office usually were the same thing. "Naturally," he said, "the women do their best work in the field in which they are most interested." Both companies approved of their women's choices and only wished they had more women in the courses, he said.
Companies Approve Choice
Twenty-three women decided to specialize in aircraft drafting, 12 others chose structural and weight analysis, 17 are now training to be industrial engineers, and eight are taking courses in production illustration. The last specialized course was open only to women who have had previous art training in college. Same Basic Courses
The courses the women are taking now, Prof. Stillwell said, do not essentially differ from the ones they were all taking. The difference lies in the fact that the women who are now specializing in production illustration, for instance, are taking advanced courses in it and fewer or no classes like structural and weight analysis.
Prof. Robert McCloy has joined with Prof. Stillwell in teaching drafting and drawing. Alone he supervises the industrial engineering, while Prof. Stillwell teaches structures and weights. Morris E. Sandwig teaches aircraft nomenclature as he did the first eight weeks. There are eleven instructors holding classes for 60 women.
Chicago, (INS)—Four pretty young women donned brand new uniforms today and set about collecting tickets and calling stations on Illinois Central railroad electric suburban trains
Women Begin Work As Train-Callers
They were targets for occasional good-natured gibes or flirtatious remarks from the male passengers, but they performed their duties in a businesslike manner. The railroad had been doubtful of the advisability of hiring women for this "man's job" but was forced to it by the manpower shortage.
Today Flagman Johny Young, who had Marjorie Hickey, 21, as a pupil, declared with enthusiasm:
"She's a real railroader. She h兰
des her job like a man."
Radcliffe Offers Fellowships
Radcliffe college is offering two $500 fellowships for training courses in personnel administration.
YWCA Will Elect Four Officers Tomorrow
The annual YWCA election will be held tomorrow in the center basement of Frank Strong hall, Colleen Poorman, president, announced today. Four positions will be filled: president, secretary, treasurer, and a new position, district representative.
Mignon Morton, College sophomore, and Alberta White, Fine Art sophomore are candidates for secretary.
Candidates for president are Betty Leo Kalis, College junior, and Cara Shoemaker, College junior.
For the position of treasurer, candidates are: Betty Pile, College sophomore, and Jeanne Shoemaker, College sophomore.

Kansas City, (INS) — Wendell L. Willkie, who opened Kansas City's Red Cross drive with a non-political address before 10,000 persons Sunday, got snared in a political discussion at a press conference for 20 boys and girls who were editors and reporters of high school papers.
School Girl Sets Back W. L. Willkie
While the former Republican candidate for president was answering questions for the high school editors on his observations of the school system in Russia one girl reporter threw the press conference into a turmoil when she asked, "Are you going to run for president?"
When the all-around laughter died down she got her answer. It wasn't very enlightening to the political world but it satisfied the teen age gal reporter. All Willkie said was, "I don't know."
Kaiser and Williams Complete Cataloging Of Oil and Gas Wells
Philip Kaiser and Harold Williams of the staff of the State Geological Survey have just returned to Lawrence from Wichita. They have completed the cataloging of samples from about 500 additional wells, mostly from northeastern Kansas, which have just been added to the sample files maintained by the Geological Survey at their branch office in Wichita. Samples from about 2,000 wells are available in this office for the use of geologists and others engaged in the search for oil and gas. These samples are now of more than normal importance due to the urgent need for new discoveries of both oil and gas pools to assure a constant and adequate flow of fuel to war industries and to the Army and Navy.

Samaritan ★★★ Radio Ham Is News Bearer
If anyone believes that good neighbor policy is dead in the United States, he'd better not mention his beliefs around Capt. George F. Humphrey of Lawrence.
Captain Humphrey's son, Lt. Berrnice F. Humphrey, had been missing since the fall of Corregidor: Last Sunday night, Edwin E. Alderman, a radio ham who lives in Dayton, Ohio, picked up a message from a Japanese prison camp which said that Lt. Humphrey had been taken prisoner and was all right.
Since Monday morning when the father was given the information by the Lawrence postmaster, four more radio hams have sent word to Capt. Humphrey that they heard the broadcast which said that the captain's son was safe. The messages came from as far as Boston, Mass.

Born in Texas, "Jackson" is familiar with the music that formed the foundation for modern "blues," and in the lonely wails and chants of Negro workers of the South he finds the beginnings of the real folk music of America. This he translates into the swing, melodious, dance music for which he is famous.
"Distinguished Service," Prof. Allen Crafton's newest play, using an all-girl cast, now is in its last week of rehearsal.
A staunch supporter of the music, Mr. "T" was the first r them popular with the public as well as with musicians, and it has been on the basis of his blue music that he has become one of the most popular band leaders of the country.
The play was written because of conditions on the Hill which necessitate a play requiring no men characters. Also, any play which is to find favor with the student body must be timely, and out of the escapist category, Professor Crafton claims.

Zurbucken To Give Safety Talk, April 8
Major Will Zurbucken of the State Highway Patrol will conduct a lecture accompanied by motion pictures on the subject "Safety on the Highway," on April 8 in Fraser theater. "This is not an ordinary safety first lecture, but rather it is an interesting play-by-play description of accidents. The motion pictures are of prime interest to every student," declared Bob Hodgson, president of the Student Union Activities Board.
"As some of you might remember, Maj. Burzucken presented a similar lecture last year." Hodgson continued. "He proved to be the best speaker that had attended the campus for years. He either kept his audience in hilarious laughter or in dead silence from attention," he remembered.
"The student activity office recommends this lecture as the number one hit of the month," Hodgson concluded.

Work Out Plans To Maintain Highway System
Topeka (INS)—Governor Andrew Schoeppel and D. J. Fair, state highway director, today, were trying to work out plans to maintain the Kansas highway system on reduced revenues resulting from curtailed income from gasoline tax and auto licences.
The highway department was further handicapped by the failure of the legislature to provide new sources of revenues. Importance of the matter was seen several weeks ago when the issue was up before the legislature. A number of officials and observers warned them that if the matter was not taken care of when the farm to market road maintenance fund was being discussed a special session of the legislature might be necessary.
Governor Schoepel termed today the situation "a serious problem."
Prospects today are that personnel in the highway department will be reduced in the near future to make up in part for the reduction in revenue.

Congress Approves Repeal of President's Bill Limiting Salaries
U. S. Treasury Dept.
Washington, (INS) — Senate and house conferences today unanimously agreed on legislation to repeal the presidential order limiting salaries to $25,000 a year net.
Approval was voted when the confeerees approved a debt limit bill, to which the salary limitation repeal is attached as a "rider."
The conferees approved the senate repeal proposal which prohibits the president from lowering either salaries or wages below the level existing between Jan. 1 and Sept. 15, 1942. The house repealer fixed Dec. 7, 1941 as the high water mark for salaries.
Youth Kills Sister; 'She Was Too Noisy
Flint, Mich., (INS) — Blaming "blood and thunder stories and movies" for the crime, Circuit Court Judge Paul V. Gadola sentenced 16-year-old John May to life in prison yesterday for slaying his sister, Emmogene, 6, because "she was too noisy."
Judge Gadola gave the youth the extreme Michigan penalty after disagreeing with three alienists who pronounced him sane.
"Even though alienists said he is sane I can't agree. This court is of the opinion that in an offense of this nature there must be some quirk of mind which is not normal. However, there is nothing for me to do but follow the law and sentence you to life imprisonment."
John told police he fired three shots into his sister's body after tormenting her with an arrow-head. "I was used to quiet and she was too noisy," the boy declared. He was arrested after seeing three movies following the shooting in his Flint home.

Students Qualify For Air Schools
Three former students of the School of Engineering of the University, Capt. Kenneth F. Troup, Kansas City; Second Lieut. Maurice G. Hill, Eureka; and Second Lieut. James P. Brown, Lawrence, were among the commissioned officers who, having completed their pre-flight training course at the San Antonio aviation cadet center, left last month for primary flying schools.
These officers possessed commissions earned in the air corps or other branches of the armed forces before being sent to the Texas training center. Having qualified for pilot training, they had been sent from their former posts to the San Antonio aviation cadet center for classification and prefflight training.

Trial Period Before Stabilization
It also calls for a gradual relaxation of exchange restrictions, although it recognizes the fact that there may be need for maintaining some restrictions in Great Britain and the dominions in order to direct the use of available foreign exchange for the most urgent needs of reconstruction.
In respect to the other countries, especially those of continental Europe, it is felt that unsettled economic conditions after the war may necessitate a trial period before stabilization can be undertaken.
A
The idea of maintaining a stable pound-dollar rate is based on the conviction in official Washington circles that both the American and British governments have reached the conclusion that depreciation of the exchange value of a nation's currency is a poor remedy for economic difficulties.
U.S. and Britain Plan Stable Pound-Dollar
Washington, (INS)—A post-war international exchange and currency plan today is understood to have been drafted by the American government.
The plant is intended to be based on an understanding between the United States and Great Britain to maintain a stable pound-dollar rate after the war.
To Abandon Currency Depreciation American officials also believe this country and Britain will be prepared to abandon the practice of currency depreciation as a means of gaining competitive trade advantages.
Britain has drafted a postwar exchange and currency plan, and informal conversations are now underway between government experts of the two countries on their respective plans.
It is hoped they can be brought into line with one another so that
A general conference of financial experts of the United Nations also may be summoned during the war for the purpose of exchanging views and seeking to reach an understanding on the principles of an international plan.
Last Year Produces Record In Spending
Washington, (INS)—The commerce department today estimated that consumer expenditures for goods and services in America's first war year, 1942, reached the record total of $81,900,000.00.
This was ten percent above the previous high of $74,600,000,000 recorded in 1941 the department said. The percentage increase in total expenditures from 1941 to 1942, however, was slightly less than the increase in the prices of goods and services sold to consumers.
"What really happened," the department said, "Was that incomes rose sharply and consumers spent 10 percent more in 1942 than in 1941 in an attempt to maintain their standard of living. But they succeeded only in pushing up prices for the same or a somewhat smaller quantity of goods."

Not so in the human form. If you study an analysis of the female body, compared with the male, you will see that women are heavier around the hips than men. The capacity of a woman's chest, on the average is smaller than a man's. A woman's heart is smaller than a man's. The man, with his big chest and heart and narrow hips, has his weight where it does him the greatest good, giving him heart and lung capacity. A woman's weight, however, is around her hips and it adds nothing to her endurance.

"PHOG" WRITES ARTICLE
In the February issue of the Athletic Journal is an article, "Rapid Rolling Offensive Triangle Merging a Set and a Moving Screen," by Dr. Forrest C. Allen, University basketball coach.
The title of the Kansas offensive signifies an offensive roll or grapevine down the floor with the men passing at angles and running in curves, interspersing a pivot only when the offensive man is confronted with a defensive opponent.
BASKETBALL RULES
The axioms of the Kansas offensive are:
1. Never dribble when you can pass.
2. Never pivot unless forced to do so.
3. Never make a long pass unless a team mate is at least ten feet in the open.
4. Never dribble closer than six feet to the side line and then cut in toward the center of the court as soon as possible.
** ** **
DRIEBLE AND BROKEN-FIELD RUN
Dr. Allen simulates the dribble to the broken-field run in football. Both are individual plays, consequently, in basketball passing should be resorted to, whenever possible.
Passing and cutting are encouraged more in the passing game than they are in the dribbling game. In the passing game the opponents are faced with many more passing angles to overcome than in the dribbling game.
Kansas teams are taught two dribbles, a low dribble for security and a high dribble for speed when there is no opponent between the dribbler and the basket.
Fast-breaks are used by Kansas teams only when the opponents are outnumbered; it is never used when the defensive opponents equal the offensive threat.
$$
$$
THE KANSAS DEFENSE
While on the defense, "Phog's" players use what he calls a stratified transitional man-for-man defense with a zone principle. It is a strata of man for man and a strata of zone, and there is a transition from one to the other depending upon the play situation. Kansas men play their opponents man-for-man until a screen by the opponents is attempted. It is then that the Kansas men switch opponents.
This kind of a defense permits the Kansas teams to perform equally well against the many types of offensives used throughout the country by different teams. It is the answer to the question of why Kansas teams can do a good job on successive nights against opponents who employ different kinds of offenses.

Washington Takes Over .. Colonel Hopes Standards Are Kept At High Level
The short stocky man with the ready smile and the colonel's uniform whom students have seen on the campus the last few weeks is Col. William C. Washington, commandant of the military science department.
Woas so of o o a t
Colonel Washington arrived on the campus the latter part
31 February to replace Colonel Dusenbury who had been commandant since June, 1941.
Impressed Favorably by Corps
The top man in the military science department stated that his first impression of the cadet corps was decidedly favorable. He hopes to maintain the high standards set by his predecessors, several of whom he has previously known and served with at other stations in the Army.
He expressed his appreciation for the very cordial reception he received from the Chancellor, members of the faculty, and students. He desires to have the military department cooperate as much as possible with the other departments and schools of the University. Colo-
Loss To Be Compensated
hel Washington wishes the military department to continue as an asset to this institution and to be held in high regard by all.
The greatest concern of Colonel Washington is the gradual depletion of the cadet corps through call to active duty, but he recognized the situation as unavoidable and as one of the exigencies of the service. He is hopeful that the establishment of an army specialized training unit at the University will go far towards compensating for the loss of R.O.T.C. students.
In September of 1912 Colonel Washington took the competitive examinations for appointment as second lieutenant, coast artillery corps, regular army. Since his entry into the army, promotions have been spasmodic, depending largely on the international situation. For example, he was promoted to first lieutenant after three and one-half years, one year later to captain; three years later to major; 15 years later to lieutenant colonel; and seven years later to Colonel.
Has Served Widely
Colonel Washington has served as student officer at Ft. Monroe, Va., from 1912-13; officer in charge of the coast artillery school from 1931-1937 at Texas A. and M.; in the Canal Zone; in Hawaii; in New York; and many places in the States.
Colonel Washington believes that it is quite likely that some of the same R.O.T.C. students the University is losing today will return to the University to complete their engineering studies under the army specialized training program.

Allied Planes Bomb Nazi-Occupied Lands With Short-wave sets
Chicago, (INS) — Besides blasting Germany and the conquered nations of Europe with bombs, the air armadas of the United Nations were engaged tecday in dropping radio sets to listeners under Nazi rule who are sympathetic to the Allied cause.
This was disclosed by Walter S. Lemmon of Boston, American short wave broadcasting pioneer in an address before the Chicago Council on Foreign Relations.
Despite the vigilance of the gestapo and threats of death by the Nazis, the people of the conquered nations continue to listen secretly to broadcasts from American short wave stations. Lemmon said.
Lemmon operates one of the short wave stations, WRUL, in Boston which is engaged in broadcasting to people under Adolf Hitler's rule.
The extemporaneous speaking contest will be held in Green theater at 4:30 Friday afternoon. Speakers will talk on the general subject of "Post War Organization."

Battleship Would Be Fitting Tribute To Quiet and Proud People of Kansas
A battleship for Kansas—why not?
It is true that Kansas has done some things to distinguish herself in her short history, but she has mostly concerned herself with the common ordinary things that belong to any state. Quietly nestled in the center of the middlewestern plains, the state has not stepped forth with great financial power, political power, or exceptional culture, but her deeds have been strong and her efforts have been as determined as the tanned, hard-working farmer who has made her what she is today.
Kansas, the backbone of the nation, stands unbending and proud in the war emergency as she assigns her factories, military bases, crops, and resources to the duty before her. Outliving the title, "the little state in the sticks," Kansas has come to the front with all the ability and power that she possesses to take her place with the other states in defeating her enemies.
Leader of the national scrap campaign, Kansas is a state of little people. Here live typical examples of American mothers and fathers who have watched their sons lay down the plow, say a hesitant goodby, and then, with finality, close the squeaky gate at the end of the front walk as they went to join the forces. Here live the examples of the generation which is stepping back to the plow to replace that youth and to give the fighting lads the backing they need. Here are the typical farmers, the mechanics, the welders, the politicians, the buck privates, and even the Eisenhowers. Kansas the crossroads of the continent, the bridge between the East and the West-between the farmer and the industrialist.
Kansas history has always been one of struggle. At the beginning, the free-staters fought to win over the slave-staters after a long contest for supremacy. For nearly ten years after Kansas was made a territory, fraud and outrage were commonplace; nor did these troubles end with the admission to the Union in 1861. Drought and famine came in and soon upon the impoverished new state came the strain of the Civil War.
Recently Kansas has been struggling to develop into an industrial state as well as an agricultural state. Though progress has been made, Kansas is not satisfied, and she continues the hard pull to bring herself to the top to give her nation the best of her benefits. The war has aided Kansas in productions and industries, but Kansas is paying, giving, and sacrificing as much as any other state.
Her proud and silent people ask nothing except to be given the opportunity to perform a duty that can later be termed as "well done." To what group of people would a battleship be a more fighting tribute?
Great Britain Sets Example For Future of United States
Prime Minister Winston Churchill began his much heralded speech Sunday with a cautious statement that he could not commit his government to any large scale post-war plans—and then proceeded to commit himself to practically every social security proposal that Eng-
--ish liberals have worked for in the past decade. If such words had come from the mouth of the United States' Henry Wallace, scoffers would have sneered their old answer of "impractical"—in reality only a less embarrassing substitution for the admission of an inability logically to refute the arguments. But this was not far-seeing Henry Wallace nor Norman Thomas speaking—it was the leader of England's conservatives.
Just Wondering
If it isn't time for the Lawrence police to come up to the campus and round up all the stray dogs that are running about getting in the way of traffic, pestering the marching navy platoons, and snapping at students walking across the hill.
It should bring home to Americans just how far we are behind the other great Anglo- Saxon nation in matters of social interest. We find the English conservative leader making and praising plans that only the most radical of the left wingers in this country would dare to suggest.
It was significant that Churchill in his speech gave military affairs a secondary place to social planning—and yet he is indisputably the chief planner of English grand strategy. The American Congress, in the meantime, feels itself so vital to the continuance of our war effort that it cannot pause to give consideration to social programs such as that recently expounded by the President.
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
It should be interesting to note in coming years, if the present political trends continue, just what paths Great Britain and the United States will follow. With only a near-sighted view such as at present this country is almost certain to repeat the disastrous performance of the 1920's and 1930's—while for England there is hope—hope because her leaders look ahead.-J.D.K.

Rock Chalk Talk BY MARY MORRILL
It would seem that the D. G's are hoarding: Second only to the feeling of a girl who misses closing hours and finds herself locked out, is the sensation of a boy who discovers that it is after 12:30 and he is locked in a sorority house. Such are sentiments of Bob Brown, Dave Morris, L. Russell, and John Taylor after being locked into the Delta Gamma house last weekend. At 12:38 the boys were growing mighty dubious.
The fraternity spirit: The Phi Delta needed safety pins. They couldn't find enough swimming trunks for the meet, and some of the fellows were going to wear shorts, but these couldn't be relied upon to stay up. Sterling Hess was dispatched to the Kappa house for the precautionary measures. ...
When he arrived, the Kappa's were very busy cornering a mouse in the corridor on second. They couldn't see Sterling, he was informed, until the matter of supremacy between woman and beast had been settled.
The minutes dragged on. Sterling bit his nails and thought of his (continued to page seven)
Saved!
Tons of tin!
So Bell System men devised a new type of joint which saves up to 80 per cent of the solder. A "Victory Joint" they called it.
The new technique has been adopted throughout the System with the result that 600,000 pounds of tin and an even greater amount of lead can be saved in a normal year's construction.
For years telephone cables have been spliced in a very satisfactory way. But the solder joint contained 40 per cent war-vital tin.
This is another example of the nation-wide cooperation of Bell System people in fulfilling their ideal—service to the nation in peace or war.

Chemists Are Told Of Rubber Substitute

Chicago, (INS)—A rubber substitute made chiefly from soybean oil, and in some qualities superior to rubber itself, was described yesterday to the ninth annual chemurgic conference in Chicago.
The new product, however, has not been developed to a point where it may be used for the manufacture of tires, although this eventual use has $ ^{*} $
not been ruled out by its sponsors.
Andrew J. Snyder of Reichhold Chemicals, Inc., Detroit, said he first saw samples of the rubber-like product on a visit to the northern regional laboratory at Peoria, Ill., in July of last year and immediately became interested.
Formula Given To Experimenters
He was given the formula, as were other companies, and Reichhold began its experimental production. Christening the new product "Agripol."
"I'm sure," he said, "the question will be asked 'is the Agripol suitable for making tires?' My present reply is 'no.' However, we recently requested permission of the WPB to make a set of tires in order that we could have some idea how the Agripol would behave when made into tires.
"We know that Agripol does not have the tear and abrasion resistance, at the present time, to give a satisfactory automobile tire. Nevertheless, we feel that with the progress that has been made since last July, Agripol may still have possibilities for recapping, or even tires.
Better than Rubber for Some Things
"However, the use of Agripol in the field of static rubber has many possibilities, not only now but even after the war is over. For example, long tests have shown that Agripol is equal to, or better than, natural rubber at low temperatures such as 40 degrees below zero."
Snyder said present uses to which the new product was best adapted were for gaskets, wirecoating, hose lining, proof goods, adhesives, sponge rubber, and as an extender for natural, reclaimed and synthetic rubber.

Thirty-Seven New Pamphlets Are in Library
Thirty - seven new publications dealing with the present world situation, have been added to the War Information Library of the University, according to Miss Leva Lash, reference librarian.
The titles in this group are: His Majesty's Ships," The Campaign in Greece and Crete," Bibliography of Post-War Planning," "Post-War Reconstruction," "South America and the War," "Science and the War," "War and the Farmer," "Government Administration in Wartime," "The British Universities After Three Years of War," "Physical Fitness," "Clothes Rationing in Britain," "Rationing of Food in Great Britain," "British Youth Activities in Wartime," "H.M.S., Britain's Fighting Navy," "Fifty Facts about Social Services in Britain," "Yugoslav Women Fight for Freedom," "Life-saving Measures for Merchant Seamen in Time of War," "Joint Production Committees in Great Britain," "Tale of a City," "The Thousand Million," "Post-war Reconstruction," "Manpower," "The Beveridge Report," "Planning for Peace," "Building Tomorrows World Today," "Wartime Vocational Training," "Physically Disabled Workers as Part of War Man-power," "European Governments in Exile," "What Canadians Think About Post-war Reconstruction," "Our War — Our Victory," "How to Win on the Home Front," "Wartime Handbook for Education," "The Free French Cameroons," "Hemispheric Policy," "A Blueprint For Total Morale," and "Latvia and Her Baltic Neighbors."

safety pins in the sacred name of Pillai. The University Intramural Association is happy to report that, thanks to Hess's clear thinking, embarrassing moments at the meet were cut to a minimum.
The feudin' spirit: Frank Rush and Bill Woods, ATO's, arrived at Brick's at 7:30 the other evening to find the door bolted from within. They could hear the clinking of glasses and the sound of the nickleodeon so they knew things were still cooking inside. After much banging, a patient voice explained that closing hours were at hand and no new customers could be admitted. The boys were furious. On account of the injustice of it all, they barred both doors and left. Evidently Woods and Rush know their bars. The management had to hoist a small waiter out through a back window to free its trapped customers.

Household hints: Van Harrison and Tom Perdue of the John Moore Coop hid an angel food cake in their dresser drawer. The feed the next night had not progressed far before the boys realized that they should have taken a pile of rose scented moth balls into consideration before hiding the pastry—but the two were so hungry they ate, anyway. Shortly afterwards, other John Moore residents united in a cooperative movement to string Harrison and Perdue up in a couple of closets. It is said both filled their surroundings with an asphyxiating aroma of rose moth balls with every exhalation.

Few Donations Made To Blood Bank Unit
Students have given an "extremely poor response" to the call for donors of blood for the Red Cross, according to Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of Watkins hospital. At least 400 donors are needed and only 50 University students have volunteered. More than one hundred Lawrence townpeople have offered their blood.
Students may still call the Community building, telephone
number 803, this week and next week to register. The Red Cross mobile blood donor unit will be here April 8 and 9 and will not return again until June. Those under 18 may get special release blanks to be signed parents, at the hospital.
The unit can take 160 pints of blood each day if everyone keeps his appointment promptly. Because 20 percent of the registrants do not appear or are ineligible it will be necessary to have at least 400 to fill the requirements here for two days.
A Red Cross national drive is attempting to collect 4,000,000 pints of blood for use in army and navy casualties.
Chief Pharmacist's Mate J. E. Wilson, who was with the aircraft carrier Yorktown in many engagements in the Pacific and is now a member of the staff of the Naval School here, stated recently that
John L. Lewis Shocks Congress By Accusations
(continued to page seven)
Washington, (INS' - John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers today bluntly told congress that he would not necessarily abide by a "no strike" agreement he signed in December, 1941, because the government "has reached its contract with labor by the wage control formula established by the war labor board."
Lewis, testifying under subpoena before the Truman committee investigating war production, urged that the WLB be scrapped.
The mine leader, who was made to cool his heels for more than an hour before he testified threw the meeting into an uproar when he accused one of the committee members, Senator Joseph Ball (R-Minn.) of being a demagogue and angrily said that Ball was not a fit representative of the American people

Engineer Files Fraud Charges In SOW Case
Charging fraud in the construction of the Sunflower Ordinance Works plant east of Lawrence, William V. Ryan, formerly a field engineer on the property, brought suit in behalf of himself and the United States yesterday in the United States district court at Topeka against W. S. Broderick and D. G. Gordon, partner contractors.
Other contractors named as defendants are: William S. Lozier and William S. Lozier, Inc., Rochester, N. Y.; Earl S. Stone, Kansas City purchasing agent; United States Transit Mix Concrete corporation, New York; Cory and Joslin, Inc., California; W. E. Joslin, P. B. Gibson, C. R. Walker, James McClenahan and James W. McClenahan, partners as Cory-Joslin.
The suit is brought under a federal law of Civil War days which permits the government to recover damages it may have suffered. Another law provides a penalty of $2,000 for every instance of fraud.
Falsification of labor costs, nonuse of purchased materials, and waste of materials purchased are alleged in the complaint which Ryan, a former employee of the plant, sets forth.

Armies Fight To Control Mareth Line

By International News Service The same breathless suspense this warring world knew in the epics of Singapore, Guadalcanal, and El Alamein was felt again today as mighty armies grappled for victory at the Mareth line.

Washington, (INS)—President Roosevelt announced today that Chester Lee Davis, the nation's new food czar, will establish a "land army" to produce food needed to insure victory in the war and that 3,000,000 men will be deferred from selective service to farm.
Those deferred from service to work on farms will be between 18 and 37, the President said.

Scientist Says Time Will Limit Inventions
Chicago, (ACP)—The world no longer will need the aid of the scientist a dozen centuries hence, Dr. Ralph Linton, a visiting professor of anthropology at the University of Chicago, says, for by that time there will be no more scientific worlds to conquer and science will "know all the answers."
"Already there are indications the number of basic inventions is decreasing," Dr. Linton said. "Once we have tapped, for example, all the sources of energy, including atomic energy, there simply won't be any left to tap."

Cincinnati Zoo's Gorilla Can't Get Her Peaches
Plus Chapter 9 "Perils of Nyoka"
Cincinnati, Ohio, (INS) — If you have any home canned peaches to spare, please send them on to "Susie," the famous gorilla in the Cincinnati zoo.
20 point rationing delicacy of peaches every morning by the Office of Price Administration, would lose her appetite and possibly die.
That appeal went out to Cincinnatians from J. F. Heusser, zoo executive director, who feared that "Susie," denied her
Director Heusser's appeal followed an unfavorable ruling on "Susie's" breakfast of peaches from the OPA regional office in Cleveland.
OPA Won't Or Can't Help
"Susie," who has eaten peaches every morning since infancy, consumes about 600 ration points monthly under wartime conditions. Her keepers said that meat rationing doesn't bother "Susie" because she never touches it.
Director Heusser said that only home canned peaches would be accepted in excess of human needs because of the rationing. 'Susic Isn't Human'

ATO Casino Party Tonight Heralds Spring Weekend
a W at D g . a w r T I
Thousands of dollars will change hands across the various gambling tables tonight as the traditional Alpha Tau Omega formal casino party gets underway. The party, held in the chapter house, will find the couples dancing under huge dice hung from the ceiling and walls of the living room. There is an average of five suicides each year of innocent persons who have lost all of their money.
Besides the ATO party this weekend are the Theta spring party and the Kappa Alpha Psi party. The strenuous manner in which girls have been practicing up on baseball this week hasn't completely worn out. A few broken finger nails and a stiff right arm are the only casualties so far. So they can still go to the parties scheduled.
Spring is really in the air-jackets and sweaters are already appearing instead of coats, and the sailors have removed their wool caps. The weather man really cooperated for the festivities this weekend.

Appetites Increase With Food Rations
Psychologists argue that it works the "graveyard shift." By the time she gets home in the morning the day activities are in operation, and she has difficulty in sleeping. The psychologists say that Rosie's loss of sleep makes her hungrier than before she turned her nights into days. So Rosie buys more food.
agists argue that Rosie needs more food because she
When Rosie the Riveter and Mrs. Uppington go shopping on Saturday they buy two pounds of peas where they formerly bought one, according to reports on increased food consumption. Just why the two families are buying more food furnishes research material for psychologists and economists.
More Money For Food
Co.
Home economists and psychologists agree that Rosie's increased income from the defense plant prompts her to spend more money for food. With Rosie and her fellow contributors to the cause of income tax buying quantities of food the total amount of food bought soars.
Your Local Bus Service
Just why Mrs. Uppington buys more food is a bone of contention between home economists and psychologists. Psychologists contribute the Uppington family's increased consumption to the fear that certain foods will not be available later. On the other side of the fence, the home economists claim that a lessened quantity of food has made the Uppingtons more aware of food. Mrs. Uppington, a faithful member of the Red Cross nutrition class, has learned that the probability of a restricted diet later necessitates stabilizing foods. Thus, caviar is struck off the menu in favor of beans.
Americans Love To Eat
The authorities on the subject say that nervous strains, tensions, and anxieties make Rosie and Mrs. Uppington's family want more food than they used to, and the more they eat the more they want. Of course, the fact that the American people get a kick out of eating has depleted the grocers' stock. What would a midnight bull session or a
triumphant announcement of a pinning be without cheese and crackers and the "traditional candy passing ceremony?"
Judging from the lack of labor to harvest crops and the number of people standing in line for the nation's food supply, shoppers will be restricted as to the amount of food they can buy in the future. Despite this fact, home economists believe that the American people will never be malnourished. Rosie will be able to swing the hammer just as well, and Mrs. Uppington will have no less difficulty in walking to bridge club on 48 points a week than she did two months ago. Look what a little spinach does for Popeye!
Women Must Give Up Long Hair and Nails To Enter Industry
New York, INS—Long hair, long finger nails and high heels today were on the list of hazards to women who enter industry, according to R. P. Russell, safety engineer Northwest Airlines.
Loose clothing with flapping bell ends, dangling sleeves, silk underwear, and rings, even wrist watches were termed dangerous to girls working around machinery.
"Serious scalp injuries have occurred when long hair becomes caught in moving machinery or hand drills," he said. "Improper fitting shoes are not only hazardous but fatiguing. Heels should be low. High heels do not permit a steady stance. They encourage foot deformities, and are tiring."

SPRING FOOTBALL
The latest spring craze is the proposed football game between Missouri and Nebraska.
It all started when some staff members of the Daily Nebraskan thought such a game would be a fitting climax to the spring training program of the two schools. Sports writers on other Nebraska papers and on Missouri papers have joined the bandwagon which is pushing this out-of-season game.
However, before this prospective game becomes a reality it must have the approval of the Big Six, the sanction of the Nebraska athletic board, and must be accepted by the Missouri athletic board.
***
COMMENT BY MISSOURIAN
Ed Menninger, Columbia Missouri sports writer, wrote Norris Anderson. Daily Nebraskan sports editor: "If you could manage to secure those three important affirmations, I'm sure the other things could be taken care of collectively if an effort to do so were put forth.
Your suggestions for the game's giving the spring grid candidates some impetus, besides promoting an event for a war cause are well put.
Faurot, head coach at Missouri, said he was eager to play the new lead, going over some of the pitcher field and asking all eight with him.
In addition, it will provide the two schools with a substitute clash in the absence of a baseball game this spring, and is sure to arouse a great deal of enthusiasm among the student bodies, especially in the light of novelty."

TIGERS IN BETTER CONDITION
As far as the respective training condition of the two teams is concerned, the Missouri Tigers are a couple of jumps ahead of the Huskers because their spring training began two weeks earlier. Also, the Huskers haven't been able to drill outdoors before this week.
If such a game is held and the traveling squad of the visiting team is not large enough to seriously hinder transportation, we will go on record as in favor of the game because it will be the last time that many of those boys will play football.
Sooners Meet Cowboys In NCAA Opener Tonight
Kansas City, (INS) — Governing officials reported everything was in readiness for the opening game tonight of the NCAA western basketball playoffs between Oklahoma and Wyoming.
The Sooners, representing the Big Six conference, admit they are up against some stiff competition in playing the Cowboys, champions of the Rocky Mountain conference and the number 3 team of the national AAU tourney recently completed in Denver.
Following the opening game Texas will tangle with Washington tonight. Winners of the second game will play the victorious team of the Oklahoma-Wyoming game. The top team will go to New York next week for the national finals.
To become familiar with the court all four teams went through practice sessions yesterday. They appeared a little nervous as they watched their opponents work out, but they were expected to overcome this by tonight.

Farmers Move West To Relieve Shortage Of Labor in Oregon
Dallas, Tex., (INS) — A train load of 250 farm families, recruited from southeast Oklahoma and northeast Texas is scheduled to start from Hugo, Okla., Saturday for Oregon and other western points in dire need of farm labor, the regional office of the Farm Security Administration announced yesterday.
The recruits are volunteers, and care is being exercised not to deplete the local labor supply to the extent that sections from which the recruits leave, will have to import labor, the representatives of the FSA said.

Both of these teams have come through the league round
Navy----53
A consolation game to decide third place in the league will precede the final game, starting at 7:30, and will bring together the Draftees and the Haskell five.
Both of these teams have a robin with but one defeat. In the semi-finals played last night Navy defeated the Draftees, 53 to 32, and the Sig Alph's downed Haskell, 52 to 31, to entitle them to meet in the championship playoff. Draftees Play Haskell
In the second semi-final contest the Sig Alph's easily defeated the Haskell Indians, 52 to 31. Taking the lead shortly after the opening whistle, the collegians steadily piled up their advantage to shadow the Indians 18 to 5 at the half. Haskell began to find the basket range in the second half but failed to catch their opponents.

About midway in the first period Navy forged ahead to make their advantage at halftime, 30 to 17. From that point on it was the Navy's game all the way with the Drafttees never seriously threatening.

Nazi Prisoners BecomeSaboteurs
Y
Washington, (INS)—A high diplomatic source in Washington has revealed that fifth column activities have been started within Germany by some of the 6,000,000 foreign workers and war prisoners whom the Nazis have conscripted into forced labor.
Reports received by the American and British governments
indicate that French workers and war prisoners are leading the fifth column activities, which range from sabotage to "Robin Hood" raids on small towns and villages.
Although these fifth column activities are not systematically organized and are on a relatively small scale, nevertheless they have reached such serious proportions that the Germans have been compelled to form civilian home guard units to protect the highways and small towns.
Hit At Communication Lines
At the risk of instant death if caught, the foreign workers and war prisoners slip out of their camps or places of residence at night and carry out sabotage missions. Sometimes they operate alone and sometimes in small groups.
They pull up railway ties, cut electric wires, and in some instances are reported to have engaged in sniping with small arms. They also hold up and rob Germans found at lonely spots along the roads. Some Form Guerilla Bands
After carrying out their nightly forays, the Allied fifth columnists sneak back into their camps or abodes before daylight. Those who fail to get back roam the countryside. While it is feared that most of them eventually get caught, there have been reports that a few are operating as guerrilla bands in the more isolated areas.
Reports have been received that the Germans have had considerable trouble with these foreign workers in the heavily bombed areas of Germany. When the British are carrying out a heavy raid on one of the big industrial cities, police control breaks down and it is difficult for the Germans to keep track of the foreign workers.
Start Fires To Guide Bombers
in one instance, they are reported to have started fires to help guide the British raiders at night.
The Fighting French have received reports that the Germans, in an effort to stamp out these activities, have picked out at random as many as 50 war prisoners at a time and shot them.
Existence of this spirit of resistance has encouraged the belief in Allied quarters that the army of 6,000,000 foreign workers, including war prisoners, in Germany may prove an extremely effective fifth column weapon when the United Nations forces start closing in on Hitler's third reich.
Turkish Engineers Study in Michigan
Ann Arbor Mich., (ACP)—Nine new students from Turkey, three of them civilians and the others officers in the Turkish army, are studying engineering at the University of Michigan during the spring term. They bring to 21 the number of students from Turkey enrolled in the University.
Two of the civilians, Orhan Koraltan and Faruk Baysal, traveled by train from Turkey to Lisbon, Portugal, passing through many German-occupied countries of Europe, in order to reach the United States by plane. The other civilian student Halil Ozbash, made the entire trip by plane, traveling across Africa. All three came from Robert College in Istanbul.
The six officers, all lieutenants, were sent to Michigan by the Turkish embassy in Washington. Five of them have been studying at Robert college. The sixth is a graduate of the Turkish military college and, prior to the war, studied for two years at the aeronautical school in Paris.
The Harvard university department of fine arts is offering a special six-week evening course in industrial and civil camouflage.

Sabados, 107, Advises Quit Working After Hundredth Birthday
Chicago, (INS)—Arpad Sabados, who celebrated yesterday what he reckoned was his 107th birthday, had his own simple prescription for longevity. It was:
"Quit working when you reach 100."
Sabados came from Hungary 60 years ago, is six feet tall, weighs 256 pounds and "never felt better" in his life.
Anyone could follow that regimen, he thought.

Rubber-From-Oats Formula Developed By Chemist-Alumnus
Furfural, a product made from oat hulls, was worked out by H. J. Brownlee, chief chemist for the Quaker Oats Chemical company. The chemical was developed on large scale production at the main plant in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and is being used for synthetic rubber.
Mr. Brownlee was graduated from the University in 1913. While he was in college he participated in athletics and was captain of the football team.
Mr. and Mrs. Brownie plan to attend Commencement activities in which their daughter, Jean, a senior in the College, is participating.
Students Strike After Boy and Girl Are Suspended
Trenton, N. J., (INS)—Students of Rider college went on strike today over imposition of "Blue" laws, concerning drinking.

Triple-Threat Fliers To Help Blast Axis
Fort Worth, Texas, (INS)—Taking a leaf from the book of American football, Major Gen. Barton K. Yount announced yesterday that the army has developed a program for training "triple-threat men" to serve on axis-blasting bomber teams.
Gen. Yount, Commanding General of the Army Air Forces Flying Training Command, said graduates of the new program will be qualified as skilled $ ^{*} $
Graduates will be assigned to four-engine bombers, enabling the navigator to be relieved by the bombardier, and vice versa, on long, tiring missions in the theaters of operation. Likewise, either the bombardier or navigator will be capable of operating their flexible machine guns or acting as a substitute at any gun position. Under, the new program, each of the war planes will have the equivalent of two bombardiers and two navigators.
Outstanding graduates of the regular course at Flying Training Command Bombardier schools will be selected for the three-way aerial education.
The plan is already in operation, and as the process of selection is expanded, will be accelerated rapidly.

Eleanor Roosevelt's Ideas on Training Neglect Provisions for Future Education
In a recent press conference, Mrs. Roosevelt is quoted as replying to a feminine reporter's question of what girls in college could do to help the war effort with the statement, "I believe girls had better get out of college and go to work unless their college training is helping fit them for some specific task. Few have the right now to train themselves for nothing in particular. I don't believe people can get by without working in the world of the future."
As if following Mrs. Roosevelt's beliefs, late news stories have told of new training programs for women in which the students are prepared in one field alone and are given the basis to lay the foundation for a future career in some certain field without thought to other subjects or phases of knowledge.
For a woman to specialize in such a field as Mrs. Roosevelt suggests is perhaps the answer to the question of what college women should do today, but what of the world after the war? Does Mrs. Roosevelt, in drawing the distinction between education and training, believe that the former should be sacrificed completely for the sake of specialization? From her statement, it would seem so.
Probably no one will deny the soundness of Mrs, Roosevelt's idea as far as the present world with its manpower shortage is concerned. True, specialization in some task which will aid the war effort is a role which many women should take, but how can the Chief Executive's wife firmly believe or even suggest that education should be neglected for training?
For the world after the war, educated persons are going to be needed desperately. To rebuild civilization on foundations which never again will crumble away to allow barbaric movements of invasion and conquest will require well-developed and broadly-educated minds on the part of not only the leaders of the world but of the followers. Specialization may help win the war for the present, but negligence in education will never win a peace.
This war has already pointed out the inadequacies of education in a broad sense. At the time when we need general knowledge of mathematics, language, history, culture, economics, and all the other aspects which are playing a part in this war and which will play a definite part in an intelligent and constructive peace, it is still suggested that all formal education be abandoned for specialized training.
Such a plan as Mrs. Roosevelt's might be all right if women would continue their study of liberal arts and of the broad college subjects on their own but few women will read the books or follow a planned program which will give them such knowledge while they are working toward specialized training. Few women who neglect college now will return after the war to take up studies where they left off. Education at that age will no doubt be abandoned for marriage or some small untrained job where study of arts and sciences will never be suggested.
Perhaps there is a constructive solution to this problem. Some plan of two years of a broad college education and then planned specialized training might be the answer to relieve the manpower problem and to save women in education for today and for tomorrow. In any sense Mrs. Roosevelt has raised a problem of training versus specialization—a problem which requires careful thought.
Just Wondering
Why students don't take enough pride in the appearance of the campus to walk on the sidewalks instead of cutting corners and keeping new spring grass from growing.
---
The Curfew law which is already being enforced in Dodge City could well be applied to numerous other towns throughout the nation. This law prohibits the presence of all boys and girls under 18 in public places or on the streets after 9:30 p.m. The authorization of a law of this type would be an effective control measure for much vice which is at the present being widely practiced. Perhaps this will be necessary to curb the great increase in juvenile crime J. Edgar Hoover has warned of.-V.E.
A survey conducted by the Westminster College newspaper showed that it is the mailboy and not the varsity athlete who is the most popular figure on the college campus since the war. For him, it's "in the bag."
Larry French, now a lieutenant in the navy, has pitched 197 major league baseball victories. Perhaps he can show how to get three strikes on the Axis.

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
Hughes, the protegee: Horrible screams may now be heard outside the Sig Alph house any evening during the hour between 7 and 8. At this time Bob Blackwell, ROTC instructor, tutors Oliver Hughes in ju-jitsu. Although Blackwell is supposed to be the expert, his 140 pounds are no match for Hughe's 225. So far the maestro has succeeded in getting his pupil's feet off the ground once. The lesson usually consists of Blackwell's being thrown downstairs until he is so limp the instruction can not go on.

The campus develops a birth rate: "Having kittens" and "cat fits" are no longer terms of jest in the Alpha Omieron Pi house. Toward dusk Wednesday night when Jean Sellers, Gerry Gentry, Juanita Bowman, and others went outdoors to investigate a foreign meow, they found a mother cat with a plentiful supply of young—approximately five minutes old—in the middle of the lawn. A box was procured, the family transferred, and the A O Pi chapter found itself in a new philanthropy. In addition to their regular duties, house freshmen are now charged with the tasks of warming milk on schedule and exercising the young Toms.

One against book larnin': In comparative anatomy lab, Mary Louise Hol-labaugh, Alpha Delta Pi, was having trouble finding the name for one vein in her shark. She asked her professor. He called in a higher authority. After a twenty minute consultation the two announced that they guessed the unknown was a sub-clavian vein; however, the problem was a little too technical for them—they just had Masters. Shortly thereafter the "vein" dropped from the shark's body and Mary Louise realized it was just a plain hunk of dirt.
This is fraternity life: Bob Dougherty, Sigma Nu, was trying to study. The plonk plonk of a table tennis game next door was distracting enough, but onlookers applauding each good play made concentration impossible. In a fit of irony Bob began opening his door and bowing every time the clapping began.

He was so funny the audience neglected the ping pong players who immediately became jealous. The next time Dougherty appeared the four athletes bombarded him with a steady fire of pillows and other missiles. After dodging most of them unsuccessfully Dougherty was such a wreck that he gave up the idea of passing his quiz and went to bed.
And there are still hundreds of boys every rush week who want to pledge.

Love saves the day: Journalism professors almost passed candy and cigars themselves, so overwhelming was their joy when Jane Jones of the identical Jones twins put out her pin. The girls had been changing seats in class every other day and disproving the old theory that teacher is smarter than pupil with alarming finality.

Playing Poker
(Editor's note: According to the latest Canter poll, poker playing ranks second among colleges pastimes, right after wooing and just before crap shooting.)
Poker is a game for gentlemen, because only gentlemen can afford to play it. But don't get the idea that money is essential to the enjoyment of the game. Money is no more essential to the enjoyment of poker than roots are essential to a tree or electricity is essential to an electric light. Any experienced player that it is just as much fun to play penny-ante and play $ ^{e} $
dime limit as it is to play nickel-ante and the sky's the limit. The thrill, he will say, comes in picking up four aces and not in raking in the pot.
When asked by a stranger to join a few friends in a sociable game, accept at once. Nothing is more becoming than a barrel worn draped from the shoulders and 'gathered at the bottom. However, if a, few of your own friends are getting together for a quiet game, sit in on it. A few dollars dropped in good company warms the cockles of men's hearts. You will have no faster friends than those gained at the card table.
The most important part of your poker game is your face. Personally, I have never learned to keep a poker face. Whenever I see a pair of aces back to back, my face lights up like a stop sign in the glare of a pair of headlights. I can't mask my delight at filling an inside straight. The smile that illumines my face when I come up with a pat hand speaks more eloquently than words to the other players. The only defense is the thick, oily smoke screen thrown off by a rank cigar, and cigars make me positively ill.
Remember these last words of advice. Your chances of filling an inside straight are fifty-fifty. Fifty times you won't win and fifty times you'll lose. Bluffing a full house is as near as you can come to the race

Students Sky-Gaze; Aid Meteorologist In Color Estimate
State College, Pa., (ACP)—Wanted: 1,000 sky-gazers. This was the request of Hans H. Neuberger, assistant professor of meteorology at Pennsylvania State college, who is planning to use the student to estimate the shade of the sky blue.
Professor Neuberger expects to find out whether the eyes of the average untrained person can be used as a measuring stick in this type of meteorological study. The aerologist explained that if the large majority of untrained students can agree on the shade of the sky blue during simultaneous observations, the usefulness of color estimations would be established.
Lecturers Furnished For Every Occasion By College Bureau

Students interested in gaining greater proficiency in public speaking volunteer their services. The only requirements are that each be a capable speaker, who will not set his audiences yawning and nodding, and be adequately and accurately informed on his topic.

The youthful trio are Frank Sangetti, 13; Arthur Senese, 10 and John Adamo, 12. Their victim told police that Sangetti had approached him from behind as he was entering his home, grabbed him around the neck and rifled his pockets of 18 pennies.
At a hearing in children's court, Adamo and Senese were released because they did not actually participate in the attack although present. Sangetti was held on a charge of juvenile delinquency.

High Rank Is Given To Alaskan Colleges
Seattle, Wash., (ACP) — You won't find them in any directory of educational institutions, but the College of the Aleutians and Kodiak university rank as the 2 newest American institutions of higher learning.
They are a possibly far-reaching innovation in education of the men at the nation's military outposts.
Capt. M. L. Witherspoon, naval recreation and morale officer of the Alaska sector, told of the "newest thing in the navy" on a visit here.
"Courses will be offered in any high school or college subject that three or more students elect to take."
"There aren't any girls around and I'm sure the boys will study harder than they would in any other environment."
"Classes will be held evenings in halls, barracks and special huts.
Captain Witherspoon said the program is a forerunner to a worldwide correspondence school system the army and navy, in conjunction with universities and colleges, are contemplating.
"Correspondence courses will be offered which will lead toward degrees in any institution of higher learning the student elects," he explained.
"These courses will be available to anyone in the armed forces. They

W. A. White Lambasts Ohio's Gov.Bricker
Emporia, (INS)—William Allen White's Emporia Gazette yesterday editorialized a charge that the same forces in the Republican party "that gathered about Taft in 1912 and nominated Harding in 1920—the Republican national committee, a group of hard-boiled politicians—seem determined to force the nomination of Governor Bricker."
The editorial said Bricker "is a man who is trying to capitalize the tremendous discontent among Republicans and among Democrats who hate the New Deal. He is trying to use that discontent to rally a majority in the election of 1944.
"In that election he hopes to get by without saying anything. Without getting on either side of the momentous questions of the hour—domestic and foreign. A man who can stand in American politics, aspiring for a high office, without even the intelligence, without the courage or without the sheer honesty to make some declaration upon the most important issue that has ever
faced this old earth, certainly is not the kind of a man for the Republicans of this country to rally around.
"The country will not take a man because it feels that it has been fooled and betrayed by Roosevelt. Surely, the Republican party . . . cannot be so craven that it would conspire to sneak into victory with no issue but Bricker and bellyache. The country will demand the man
... must say who he is, what he is and why. Bricker is an honest Harding. Thumbs down."
Wisconsin Has Big Budget

Hungry Senators
★★★
No Bean Soup
Washington, (INS) - Even the United States senators were being forced to tighten their belts because of rationing today.
For the first time, in as long as old timers around the capitol can remember, the Senate restaurant failed to have navy bean soup on its menu.
The senate bean soup, 15 cents a bowl, and a meal in itself, has been an institution in Washington. It was put on the menu many years ago when a senator from Minnesota bitterly protested against the fact that the restaurant did not serve soup made from Minnesota grown beans. Every day since then, navy bean soup has been served.
The manager of the restaurant explained that it disappeared from the menu today because of the shortage of ham and rationing of beans.
"There ought to be a congressional investigation," one senator muttered.
Aircraft Executives Explain Management
Explaining the policies and organization of their firm, four executives of Prat and Whitney aircraft corporation discussed problems of production and management at the School of Business Wasp Night in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building last night.
In the absence of J. E. Toher, personnel director of the cor- cabled tof
In the absence of J. E. Ton poration who was scheduled to speak but was unable to be present, R. R. Griffith, head of the job evaluation department, W. F. Grier, director of the training school, L. A. Robbins, superintendent of the inspection department, and F. M. Goings, production engineer, conducted an informal question-and-answer discussion of the duties and responsibilities of their departments.
Men Show Blueprint of Plant
Displaying the blueprint of the new plant under construction near Kansas City where Pratt and Whitney, as agents of the government, will build wasp engines for naval aircraft, Goings explained that the plant has been laid out to obtain
the utmost in efficiency and coordination. The construction will include a three-story office building as well as the one-story production line, all of which will be half a mile long.
In the field of employment, Griffith outlined the Pratt and Whitney evaluation plan whereby each job is evaluated and filled through a rating of employees. The initial evaluation, according to Griffith, will involve consideration of the education necessary for filling the position, the experience and amount of judgement needed by the worker, and the physical condition necessary. Employees are now being hired at the rate of 75 per day, Griffith disclosed.

Survey Finds Unfit Housing
Thirty Lawrence families are living in houses unfit for use, a survey of 496 residences by the Social Pathology class of the University has revealed.
The lowest income group was considered as a basis for the survey. The investigation concerned the condition of the house, extent of need for repairs, and degree of living comforts. It was found that despite low housing standards in this group, less than one-fifth of the families had any problem of crowding.
The survey, based on standards set up by the Federal Housing Authority, disclosed the fact that 114 houses were in good repair,
Students who worked on the survey included Geneva Will, College

The survey, based on standar Authority, disclosed the fact that but the others needed major or minor repairs. Four hundred and nine of the homes are lighted by electricity; 16 had no running water, and only 238 of the 496 residences had toilet or bath facilities.

The survey was undertaken as a cooperative project with the State League of Women Voters. The League is interested in having introduced in the next session of the legislature an enabling act to obtain federal assistance in promoting a housing project.
Students will go to the polls Thursday to decide whether they will be governed by a single governing body or by the present two-council arrangement, Vernon McKale, Men's Student Council president, said yesterday.

A clue to the American offensive strategy whereby Japan inevitably will be ground down into defeat was given today by Major General Claire Chennault, commanding the United States army air force in China.

Stating that they believed the new council would be given more powers and that the new council would be capable of handling these powers, committee members stated that students would be represented proportionately to their sex and their schools. In addition, one member from each of ten or less of the major campus organizations will sit upon the council. Freshmen will have two representatives on the council.
The president will be elected by the students each year, and the runner up will be the representative-at-large. All problems dealing with only one sex will be handled by a special committee of that sex. Student Court To Be Informal
The Student Court will be appointed by the president of the ASC. It will be less formal than the present council. It will have wide judicial powers and will act without
say committee members. The committee members emphasized that this is the ideal time to make the change while political quarreling on the campus is suspended, that its value lies in what it can accomplish after the war.
Thursday's referendum will be the first time students on the campus have voted since the spring of 1941. In April, 1942, the MSC suspended all elections until April, 1944, to save money and energy until the war is won.
Eating In Restaurants To 'Get Around' Meat Shortage Won't Work
Denver, (INS)—Families that expect to "get around" the meat shortage by eating in restaurants will find their scheme won't work, said A. A. McVittie, Denver restaurant owner and past president of the National Restaurant Association recently.
McVittie predicted the extra business will force cafes and restaurants to declare several meatless days a week.
"Restaurants will either have to close for two or three days a week, or substitute menus of pancakes, waffles, and macaroni dinners," McVittie said.

Warm weather and spring fever had their effect on weekend dances and picnics. The Theta spring formal led the list with dancing in the Kansas room to the music of the Bachmann-Pope band.

Debaters spent the weekend here, which may have accounted for the more-than-usual cars on the campus, or it might be attributed to the spring fever which seems to have hit all students. Steak frys and picnics are numerous due to the approaching meat rationing, and possibly to the nice weather.

Norman Taurog is an example. The director has filmed many Hollywood musicals but he never was confronted by a situation like the present one.
His new M-G-M musical is "Girl Crazy," starring Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland. In dancing and singing numbers, 50 showgirls were featured. So far, all was easy. But, each girl was to have a partner, and there came the rub.
Average age of the girls was 20. Average age of the boys, as they finally lined up, was 16. Taurog dared not use the few boys over 18 still available, for they might be lost in a single day through calls from their draft board.
The result is that male dancers seen on the screen for the duration will be, in the main, kids ranging from 14 to 18 years of age. A second result is one big collective headache for directors of the films.
Stop In At WIEDEMANN'S For Eating and Dancing
Fourteen to eighteen year olds were safe—but they posed conditions never before faced by a Hollywood musical. Each boy who hadn't reached his 18th birthday, or hadn't completed his high school education, had to study four hours a day on the set. That left him just four hours a day to work, because he had to leave the set at 6 o'clock on the nose—no overtime.
Boys Are Dancers In Hollywood Now
Now, however, the situation is reversed. There are more beautiful girls in the cinema capital than ever before. But it seems like all the male dancers $ ^{ \textcircled{3}} $ are wearing a uniform. mothers
Forty-three of the 50 boys fell into this category. According to California state law, each of these had to have a parent, guardian, or sponsor on the set. There were also nine teachers, and as many different classrooms erected in every open space on the stage.
Hollywood, (INS)—There's a new problem confronting the makers of film musicals. No. 1 task used to be to find enough prettygirls. Their male partners were plentiful in Hollywood.

ANYBODY BUT THE AGGIES
Oklahoma's loss to Wyoming in the opening round of the Western NCAA tourney was no surprise to University fans. The closeness of the score, however, did fool many local cage followers, who were spotting the Sooners 10 points in their wagers on the game.
There will probably be those who will raise the old cry that the Oklahoma Aggies deserved the bid, or at least a playoff game with the Sooners to decide the fifth district representative. The truth is, however, that NCAA fans got and deserved a big break when the Sooners received the bid.
Anything but a rabid Oklahoma fan, we nevertheless think that an invitation to the slow, rough Aggie squad would have been a mistake. Over a basketball game in which the Iba-men participate, we'll take a county fair terrapin derby any day.
DON'T FORGET THE JAYHAWKS
Rankings of cage teams for the season just completed are still coming out, with Illinois topping most of those which exclude service teams. We think our own Kansas Jayhawkers definitely deserve a place in the first five, along with Creighton despite its loss at Madison Square Garden. For the fourth position we'd nominate St. John's, with either Wyoming or Southern California holding down the other spot in the top five.

Cowboys Win; Sooners Take Consolation
Kansas City, Mo., Mar. 27, (INS)
— The Wyoming Cowboys won the right to represent the West against Georgetown of the East in the National Collegiate Athletic Association meet at New York City Tuesday evening by nosing out the Texas Longhorns here tonight 58 to 54.
John Hargiss, leading the way moved Texas to an early lead of 21 to 9 in the first ten minutes, but Kenny Sailors began hitting from all angles to narrow the gap 29 to 25. Hargiss and Overall brought the score to 33 to 27 in Texas' favor at the half.
Wyoming's rejuvenated quintet narrowed the gap at the opening of the second half and the teams were at a tie 51-all with five minutes to play. Kenny Sailors potted two long ones to give the Cowboys the lead they never relinquished.
High scorers were Hargiss 29, Lomenich 17, Weir 13, Sailors 12.
In the consolation game Oklahoma defeated Washington 48 to 43.
The first half was slow and uninteresting. At the half it was Oklahoma 24, Washington 21. High scorers were Tucker 18, Rieich 13, and Taylor 16.
In Friday night's game the Wyoming Cowboys nosed out the Sooners 53 to 50 in a game which was too close for comfort for the highly touted Cowboys even though Gerald Tucker fouled out with three minutes to go in the first half. Milo Konenich's seven field goals in the last half were too much for the Sooners who had led at the half, 25 to 22.
In a similarly close game, Texas managed to come from behind and defeat Washington 50 to 55. The Huskies led at the half 33 to 28 but the deadly shooting of the Long-horns' Hargis, who scored 30 points, enabled the Texans to force the game into an overtime period.

Tennis Champ May Never Play Again
Today the hand was bandaged and in a sling and Miss Wills, now the wife of Lieut. Aiden Roark, stationed at Fort Riley, said it probably would remain this way for another two months.
Manhattan, Kan., (INS) - Helen Wills, regarded by many as the greatest woman tennis player in history, looked forward today to the grim possibility she never may be able to play her favorite game again.
She was severely bitten last Jan. 14 when she stepped in and tried to stop a vicious fight between her German police dog and another dog that had pounced on him. Both animals turned on her and one of them bit her right hand.
She added sadly her physician had told her he * did not know if she ever would recover full use of her hand.

DONORS SOUGHT Red Cross Needs Blood 'Save A Life'
By EVELYN RAILSBACK
Just two weeks after Pearl Harbor a committee of students told Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of Watkins hospital, that the student body would like facilities to give blood for use in army and navy casualties. Yet when a Red Cross mobile unit is scheduled to come to the campus and has asked for 400 volunteers, only
75 students have given their names.
The unit will come to the Lawrence Community building April 8 and 9 and would come again before school is out if students were sufficiently interested to make their coming worth while.
Those who wish to volunteer can call the Lawrence Red Cross headquarters in the Community building, telephone number 803 within the next week to make appointments as donors. Those under 21 can get blanks at the hospital for parental consent.
All white or colored persons between the ages of 21 and 60 who are not anemic, who have normal hemoglobin and normal blood pressure, who weigh over 110 pounds and who have had no recent serious illnesses are eligible to give blood.
Blood donors are asked to eat no fatty foods for four hours before the blood is to be extracted because fat in the blood makes it milky and unusable. A local anaesthetic is applied in the arm and blood is removed in about eight minutes. The process takes about an hour and is painless. Those who give blood should not undertake strenuous activity immediately afterward, but there will be no interference with activities.
There are more than 12 pints of blood in the average body and one pint can be replaced within two hours. Dr. Canuteson stated. All the red blood cells are replaced within 2 or 3 days. There is no harm done to the body and those with slightly high blood pressure actually benefit. Blood can be given safely every eight weeks.
Schools Combine Medical Depts.
The Red Cross mobile unit which is coming to Lawrence has a staff of experts, a doctor and three nurses, who are specialists in their work.
Knox College and the Galesburg (III.) Cottage Hospital School of Nursing are jointly offering a five-year course leading to the degree of bachelor of science in nursing and the graduate nurse certificate.

Former Student Returns From Action In Pacific
"Pearl Harbor stands out in the memory of everyone who was there above every exciting experience he might have had since," Lt. Robert Haynes said in an interview yesterday. "It took about two weeks to recover from the stunning blow," he added.
Lt. Haynes has lived in Lawrence all his life. He took V-7 training at Prairie State, New York City, and was sent overseas in September, '41. One brother, Eugene L. Haynes, business '39, is an ensign on a Navy battleship now. Another brother, Marion Haynes, is a sophomore in the College.
Following the attack at Pearl Harbor, Lt. Haynes, engineering officer, took part in raids in the South Pacific, using both Pearl Harbor and Guadalcanal as bases. He was on the first ship to enter the harbor at the initial Guadalcanal campaign.
Lt. Haynes was enthusiastic about the Navy, going so far as to say that "the Navy has everything, including the best and most abundant food I have seen for a while." When asked about the Navy on the Hill, he said that he thought it was a good idea to train men here, and he felt that chances of rapid advancement for these men after they have some experience were good.
Wind Tunnel Built at Pasadena
Study of level flight speeds of more than 450 miles an hour is the purpose of a new $2,100,000 wind tunnel now under construction at Pasadena by the California Institute of Technology.
"We didn't have any hits there; we were lucky," Lt. Haynes continued, "but as we edged out of the harbor, the magazines of the Arizona blew up, and we could feel the heat from the fire."
While he requested that the name of his ship not be mentioned because of military reasons, he did say that the destroyer on which he was stationed was one of the first to open fire at Pearl Harbor, and it was officially credited with shooting down six torpedo planes.

President Has Been Voice of Masses In His Fight For Social Justice
President Lincoln was once asked by a friend how he liked being President. Lincoln compared himself with the man who, after being farred and feathered, was being ridden out of town on a rail. The man was asked how he liked it by a voice from the crowd and he replied: "Were it not for the honor of the thing, I think I would prefer to walk."
To be President at any time is to lay oneself open to hatred and execration, misunderstanding and misfortune; but to be President in wartime is to work harder than a day-laborer, and be thanked for less. At the best you will be execrated by the minority. At the worst you will be hated universally for your precrastinating weakness and for your unyielding strength, for the measures you have passed and the measures you have not passed, for the things you have done and the things you have not done. This is to be President.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt has been peculiarly fitted to the job of war-time President. Oddly enough he has been a man of the people. Born of the aristocracy, he has been the voice of the masses, crying out for social justices, speaking for the laborer and the farmer. Even in war measures he has done what seemed logical, what seemed like the thing to do to the thinking people of the nation.
Assuming office at a time when the nation was plunged into the depths of a depression, when the banks were failing on every hand, he led the people through the jobless valley into the light of a stable economy. And through this time he pressed the passage of social measures such as social security and the Wagner Act. For this he is hated by the many who have not been helped, those who call him dreamer and idealist.
Without his master's touch upon the psychology of the nation, without the calming effect of his carefully modulated voice, the nation would not be the unified whole it is today. Without the inspiration of his idealism and his sense of the spectacular, we would not be today so far along on our way to winning the war and winning the peace.
Hated by many, loved by few, President Roosevelt has won the admiration of a nation and a hundred battling peoples. How he will be judged fifty or a hundred years from now must be left to the future. This it is to be President.-J.G.
Canada and United States Form Basic Post-War Economic Plan
Discussion of the post-war world has been receiving great prominence in conferences between United States and Great Britain or Russia and other friendly nations, while few persons have heard of the plans for closer cooperation and closer living with the neighbor on the north — Canada. Although this question has been left mostly to Secretary Cordell Hull and the State Department, some definite steps have been made toward bringing the two countries to a even more advantageous relationship.
On Nov. 30 of last year, Secretary Hull wrote to the Canadian government, "The Governments of the United States of America and of
Just Wondering
How many University students will read carefully the new MSC-WSGA constitution and will be prepared to vote on it intelligently when it is presented to the student body.
--bring in additions to the language and invasions through the ages have added many new word forms, while mariners and settlers have been responsible for still others.
Canada are prepared to cooperate in formulating a program of agreed action, open to participation by all other countries of like mind directed to the expansion, by appropriate international and domestic features, of production, employment and the exchange and consumption of goods, which are the material foundations of the liberty and welfare of all peoples."
Secretary Hull further pointed out the aims to eliminate all forms of discriminatory treatment in international commerce, and to reduce tariffs and other trade barriers. As an answer, the Canadian government under the action of Minister Leighton McCarthy agreed to the statement of aims and conclusions.
Thus was formed the basis of solving a problem of post-war economic settlements which will promote mutually advantageous relations between the United States and Canada. Conferences to discuss establishing the foundations for satisfying human needs in Canada and all other countries wishing to join will soon be started. In this way, the United States is taking a definite step to strengthen the already friendly relations of the two countries and to set examples and offer a plan to other nations so that the economic basis of future peace will be profitable and secure to all.

The underworld: Members of the Harmon women's Coop detective agency have reorganized into a knitting society. One night last week when Harmonites were out, the house was pillaged and every pair of pajamas in the place, except one pair of sleepers belonging to Mrs. Ellen Running, house mother, were stolen. The detective agency mobilized immediately. Using accredited super sleuth methods they had the crime all pinned on several members of the Rock Chalk Coop when Harmon girls confessed.

The acid of the lab had relieved him of an embarrassingly large portion of his trousers.

The two boys accused Gubar of making them out as rowdies. In their anger they pinned him down on the carpet and forced him to chew and swallow the offensive clipping. As Mike strangled, they warned him that if their names ever appeared—in any connection again in the Kansan, he would be eating all eight pages.

War to Enrich Speech What's a Jeep?
America will have many new words and phrases added to the language when the boys come marching home again from the far corners of the world. And the English language will be enriched by them, in the opinion of Prof. Walter K. Smart, of the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University.
By Associate Collegiate Press
"Contacts with other races and other peoples invariably bring in additions to the language," Professor Smart said. "Wars and invasions through the ages*
From Indians we got such words as moose, hickory, hominy, skunk, persimmon, toboggan, moccasin, wigwam and squaw. During and after the Mexican war, when the southwest was opened to American settlers, we acquired a number of words from the Spanish, including adobe, burro, canyon, corral, coyote, sombrero mustang, and lasso."
With soldiers in every part of the world the words that they will bring home will be as varied as the battlefields on which the fighting is taking place, Professor Smart said. The war has already produced a number of words and phrases that seem destined to attain a place in the language.
He referred specifically to "quisling" when used to designate a person who betrays his own people. Other words which have sprung from war or related activities, are commanded, blitz, fifth column, fox hole, jeep, ersatz, spearhead, gremlin, black-out, paratroops, and ceiling. The latter has acquired a new meaning when referring to top limit.
Many words which became popular during the first World War are still in use 25 years later he said. Not only did the doughboks of 1918 learn to sing "Mademoiselle From Armentieres," and "Madelon," but they also picked up a number of French words that still live in our language. Among these are beaucoup, parley-vouz, and tout de suite, the latter being popularized by the Americans as toot sweet.
Some of the words that grew out of the first World War are now so common that we have almost forgotten their original source. Professor Smart said. Such word as dud, doughboy, pill-box, went west, carry on, shock troops, dugout, barrage cooties and defeatist were either war terms or grew out of the war.
Garden City Beet Growers May Use Jap Labor
Topeka, (INS) — Sugar beet raisers in the Garden City area will have to provide bathing facilities if they expect to get Japanese labor, Governor Schoeppel was advised today by federal authorities. Beet growers had stated they could use as many as 600 of the Jap laborers in the Garden City area where a manpower shortage exists.

We Want a Battleship
It's Unanimous
The University students want a new battleship. The antiquated battleship, Kansas, now in service with the fleet is definitely too old to merit the name of Kansas, students agreed.
Students gave the following answers when asked, "Do you think Kansas should have a new batleship?"
Glenn Sewell, Jr., business junior—"We contributed enough
scrap in the national scrap drive; I think we definitely should have a new battleship." Lillian Wendler, college freshman—"Sure!"
Keown Wants Cruiser
J. Donald Keown, college senior — "Well I believe Kansas should have a new battleship, but I do think that Caldwell, my home town, should have a cruiser before too much emphasis is placed on the battleship deal."
Bill Spence, fine arts freshman—"Well, you know I'm a Missouri, but I think Kansas should have a battleship. I've been shown that Kansas has the fighting men and women that deserve a fine sleek battleship."
John Conard, college senior—“Well, now I'm in V-7, and if I have to command that beat-up tub they call the Kansas, I'll be "i"-,"@ if I'll sail her up the Kaw.”
Gibson Wants To Build Dock
Dwight Bartlett, college freshman — "I believe that if any state has a new battleship Kansas should have one."
Niles Gibson, senior engineer—"My only statement regarding that question is this—I would like to have the Navy hold up building proceedings until I have graduated and given the chance of building the dry dock to house the Kansas."
Ann Moorhead, college sophomore—"Yes, I think we should have a new battleship."
Paul Adams, college sophomore—"It would be the height of assininity if a new battleship is built and it does not receive the name of Kansas."
Sam Cook, college freshman—"A new battleship? You bet!"
One Woman's Opinion
Washington—It is Mrs. Mildred Scott Olmstead's belief that "it would be better for the war to go on a year longer than to draft women."
Wickard Evades Reporters' Query
Washington, (INS) — Secretary of Agriculture Claude R. Wickard yesterday declined to give a positive answer as to whether he would resign his post.
As Wickard hurried into the White House for the regular Friday cabinet meeting, reporters tried to halt him for questioning.
Declaring he was late for the meeting, Wickard kept walking, and a reporter shouted to him, "Mr. Secretary, do you intend to resign your post?"
"I don't think so," was Wickard's eply as he entered the cabinet room.

Twenty-two of the garden plots are at the south end of the campus and east of the intramural fields. There were assigned a week ago and many of them have been started. Ten of the plots are 50 by 60 feet and 12 of them are 40 by 80. The other plots are in West Hills on property owned by Dean F. J. Moreau and Dean Paul B. Lawson. These were staked out by Mr. Smith and Mr. Nichols Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.
Some of the gardeners have whole plots of ground while others are just taking half. Many of the faculty members have their own gardens around their homes.
Compton Offers Proposal To Forgive Part Of Taxes
Washington, (INS) — Declaring that he foresees possible defeat of the Ruml tax plan, Representative Compton, (R) Conn., today announced he would offer a compromise proposal which would forgive only 75 per cent of the 1942 income tax liabilities.
Compton said this would be ac-complished simply by calling the 1942 indebtedness satisfied by the quarterly installment already paid last March 15.

University To Admit High School Seniors
Kansas high school seniors now have another opportunity to speed up their education still further as a war emergency by clipping another full year from the time it takes to graduate from college, according to a regulation passed this week by the University of Kansas administration.
immendation of the high school principal, if the ___
Upon recommendation of student has attained senior standing, is in the upper ten per cent of his class, has qualities of leadership and ability as evidenced by a special aptitude test provided by the University, a student may be admitted to the University at the beginning of the summer semester, May 21.
This regulation, approved by the Kansas State Board of Education, contemplates that high school credit will be given for the freshman year of college, and that the high school diploma will be issued after the conclusion of the college freshman year. This year of work will also count for regular University credit as usual and as prescribed by the various schools of the University.
The University is now on a year round basis, offering three full semesters a year, the next beginning in May. By such an arrangement, it is possible for a student to complete work for a full college degree in two and two-thirds calendar years. By the new University regulation, it would be possible for students in the upper ten per cent of their classes to complete high school and college in five and two-thirds years, as against eight required before the new war speed-up program at the University.
University Works Round The Clock
As a matter of fact, in addition to being on a year round basis, the University is also actually on a round the clock schedule. In order to provide classroom and shop facilities for the engineers, it is necessary to schedule classes at all hours of the day and night. Flourescent lights blazing through the nights in Fowler Shops attest that the sailors are utilizing the facilities of the University round the clock in the all out war effort. Regular engineering students at the University utilize Fowler shops several hours in the afternoons.

The extemporaneous speaking contest was won by Bob Leffler of Oklahoma, who received the $20 prize for first place. Because of a ruling, made by the League before the contest started, stating that only one contestant from each school could be counted among the top three, Tom Finney, also of Oklahoma could not collect the $10 prize for second place, even though he placed second in the contest.

The oratorical contest was won by Rick Davis, University of Texas, for his oration on "John Q. Citizen, the Third." Cash prize for first place was $20.
Bill Conboy, University of Kansas, won the $10 prize for second place because of the rule. Bill Rist, University of Nebraska, took the $5 prize for third place. All speeches were on some phase of the topic, "Post War Organization."

David Woods, University of Oklahoma, won the third prize of $5 with his oration, "When Johnnie Comes Marching Home."

New York, (INS)A meatless weekend, the like of which this metropolis of 7,500.000 residents never has experienced, confronted New York City this weekend since both wholesale and retail butcher shops were either closing or without even meager supplies.
New York Faces Meat Shortage This Week
Even after rationing of mea begins on Monday, New Yorkers will have difficulty obtaining meat because of depleted stock and the fact that much of the little now trickling into this jam-packed city is earmarked for war or lendlease purposes.
It even was difficult to get poultry in some sections and the supply of potatoes forced a number of stores to place a limit on purchases—as little as two pounds.
Mute evidence of the critical situation was the inactivity Friday at the huge market places where hustle and bustle were commonplace only a week ago. Instead of the rush of sales there was the sombre realization that the shortage had become critical.
West Washington market, one of the largest of its kind in the world, was virtually closed and three of the city's biggest packing firms did not open until long after their accustomed time. They had little, if any, meat to sell so it was a waste of time to go through the motions for any longer than necessary.

British Take Port; Pursue Fleeing Axis
(International News Service) Smashing ahead rapidly in the wake of the beaten Axis African Corps, the British Eighth Army this morning occupied the Tunisian port of Gabes 25 miles behind the Mareth line, and continued on north in pursuit of the fleeing foe.
Prime Minister Winston Churchill who last week made the unpleasant announcement that the British had been forced to give up their gains in the first assault on the Axis fortifications, gave this joyful news to the house of commons.
No News Given of Rommell's Forces
The news from the north African front did not say what deposition Nazi Field Marshall Rommell had made of his forces on the Gabes-Oafa highway last reported stubbornly opposing the advance of American forces under General George Patton Jr. in the vicinity of the El Mcheltat heights. But if he has not withdrawn them and thus opened his rear to attack by American as well as eighth army columns, the enemy rear guard is trapped.
Meanwhile other American columns rising to the coast north of Gabes, threatened Rommell's retreat as they made steady progress toward Sfaz and Souse.
More woe piled up for the Axis on the continent as RAF heavy bombers pounded Berlin in the second heavy attack in 48 hours, and blasted targets in the industrial Ruhr district of western Germany. Fighting on the Russian front was slowed by the spring thaws which made quagmires of the Smolensk and Donets battlefronts, but the Red Armies continued to make some progress toward Smolensk while halting all enemy attempts to cross the Donets.
No Rationing Worries In Cooking Classes
The increased amount of foods being rationed will necessitate more demonstration lessons in the department of home economics, Miss Edna Hill has said. The department has suffered no great handicap so far from the effect of rationing, according to Miss Hill.
Substitutes have been used wherever it has been possible. Miss Hill said the department had received only half the amount of sugar used formerly, but the reduction has presented no great problem to them
The only time coffee is used by home economics students is for a lesson, so the smaller quantity of coffee will hardly be noticed by the department. The amount of canned goods and dried fruits used can be adjusted to the rationing, Miss Hill believes.

Malott Approves Added Student Activity Control

Library Displays Stuart Henry Gift
The University recently received a collection of personal and private letters, autographs, cards and photographs from famous French men and women of the 1890's as a bequest from Stuart Henry, a University alumnus and a man of letters, now a resident of Douglaston, Long Island. Part of this unique gift
is now on display in a large showcase in Watson Library. This collection is comprised of letters and photographs sent to Mr. Henry by such famous persons as Alexander Dumas, the Younger, Lecomte de Lisle, Henri de Regnier, Anatole France, and Victorien Sardou. The majority of the authors and artists represented are French. In addition to these, ten notes or cards are included from Mrs. Stuart Henry's collection. The authors of these are chiefly English and American literary or theatrical figures.
Collection Acquired in Nineties
A large part of the collection was acquired when Mr. Henry was in Paris in the 'nineties. At this time he was engaged in writing for various English and American periodicals a series of articles dealing with Parisian life and letters. Much of this material has been reprinted in book form, among which are "Paris Days and Evenings," "The Nets" and "French Essays and Profiles."
Other exhibitions from this collectio will be displayed from time to time.
New Exhibit Is Owen Memorial
The new exhibit which went on display this week is the Owen Memorial collection. This collection is also in the large showcase of the library. This collection was conceived by a committee who desired to perpetuate the memory of Prof. Arthur Leslie Owen, who was head of the department of Spanish and Portuguese here at the University from 1918 to 1934, the time of his death. Donations were made by Professor Owen's former students from all over the country. With this excellent cooperation a committee was appointed to acquire a suitable memorial. This was to be in the form of books that would be used by the students and general readers. The Spanish Civil War made the acquisition of the chosen collection difficult and after many inconveniences and delays the books of the collection "Clásicos Castellanos" were purchased wherever possible. It is impossible to show all of the books in the collection which include the greatest monuments of the Literature of Spain from its oldest composition—"the Poema del Cid" to some of the works of Juan Valerra, a nineteenth century writer.

Rachmaninoff Died Sunday, Played Here
Sergei Rachmaninoff, 69. Russian composer, conductor, and pianist, who played at the University in 1937, died early Sunday morning at his home in Beverly Hills, Calif.
The towering Russian symphonist, with his slight stoop and close cropped gray hair, had been a familiar figure on the concert stage for about 45 years. He was conceded to be the greatest of living pianists.
Popularly known for his "Prelude in C Sharp Minor," Rachmaninoff has composed such operas as "Aleko" and "Francesca da Rimini," a popular symphonic poem, "The Island of the Dead," piano concertos and quantities of songs, chamber music, symphonies and miscellaneous works.
He was born on an estate in Novgorod, Russia, April 2, 1873, and was a member of the Russian land-owning class. He first came to America in 1908, and in 1917 he left his native land to take up permanent residence in America. Just last Feb. 1, Rachmaninoff and his wife became American citizens.
Like many another of his profession, Rachmaninoff had his eccentricities, for years insisting on traveling on nothing but his private railway car. While here he demonstrated little of his temperament, remaining relatively calm at frequent interruptions by late comers. He carried with him an electric muff to warm his hands before playing and had his own piano shipped whereever he went.
Famous Juvenile Court Judge Dies
Los Angeles, (INS) — Judge Ben Lindsey, head of the children's division of the California Superior court, who first gained fame as the founder of Denver's famous juvenile court system, died of a heart attack Friday in Los Angeles. He was 73.
In addition to his judicial duties Judge Lindsey was widely known as an author. His book, "The Companionate Marriage," published in 1927, caused nationwide controversy. Judge Lindsey always insisted this treatise had nothing to do with "free love."
He was stricken Wednesday night after a long day in court, where he has handled thousands of cases involving boys and girls since he was elected in 1932 by the largest vote ever given in a similar election in California.
N. Y. Hoboes Contribute Burial Fees
The book advocated experimental marriages for young couples. They were advised to try out married life for a year without having children.
New York, (INS) — New York's hoboes yesterday were "chipping in" nickels and dimes to provide decent burial for Lavina "Mother" Dalton, who fell dead last Sunday while serving meals to down-and-outers whom she had befriended for the past 25 years.
The contributions began to pour in after her husband, Ralph, self-styled "rector" of the "Temple of Brotherhood" announced that he had only 40 dollars of the necessary 150 dollars to insure decent internment.
"Many of the boys are now working in war plants making pretty good money. They won't let Mother Dalton down. They'll see that she is buried in Boston, where she wanted to die."
"But we're not worried," Dalton declared. "We've always been able to give decent burial to our own."
J. B. Shannon Rites Arranged
Kansas City, (INS) — Funeral arrangements were completed yesterday for Joseph B. Shannon, 76, former congressman who died in a Kansas City hospital late Sunday.
Shannon, a Democratic leader in Missouri for half a century, died of a heart ailment and pneumonia. He had been ill for two months.
Shannon who leaves his widow, son, daughter, and two sisters, became ill while serving as representative from the Kansas City district. He returned to a Kansas City hospital from the capital and remained there until his death.
He lead a stormy political life, having a faction all his own. Once Shannon aligned his forces with those of the deposed Democratic leader, Thomas J. Pendergast. He broke with him and later with Casmir J. Welch. The latter break split the party and Shannon's forces became known as the "rabbits" because they were always popping up unexpectedly.
Shannon climaxed his political career in 1930 when he was elected congressman. He succeeded himself four consecutive terms. When he became ill he gradually slipped from the political scene and Roger C. Slaughter was elected to succeed Shannon this year.
It was announced late this morning that funeral services will be held Wednesday morning with burial in Kansas City.

Reformer Campaigns ... Teagarden To Modernize Army Band Arrangements
A man of ideas and hobbies as well as a top-rating band leader, Jack Teagarden, scheduled to appear at the Junior Prom, Saturday, April 10, has, in addition to managing his own band, begun a campaign for modernizing army bands.
Noting that the army has streamlined everything but the bands, Teagarden has appealed to army bands to discard their
conventional arrangements and turn loose modern arrangers on the numbers which the service bands play in concert and the marches to which the army of 1943 trudges.
In developing this theme, Teagarden has directed his own arrangers to make a complete library of modern arrangements of service airs for use in concerts at army camps and in stage shows for the service men.
"Army bands are playing the same arrangements of music today that they plaed 30 years ago, and it is as inconsistent as it would be to train the 1943 army in the maneuvers of 1917," he points out. With the tempo of life completely changed, Teagarden finds little entertainment value in the conventional arrangements which were popular in 1917, and declares that a little of the spirit of '43 should be injected.
In his appearance at the Prom University students will be given the opportunity of sampling the streamlined blue music identified with the "king of the blue trombone" chief promoter of modernistic swing and blues.

London, (INS)—Germany was reported yesterday to have taken over complete control of the Italian navy.
An undated dispatch appearing in the Sunday Reynolds News said that Nazi Grand Admiral Karl Doenitz had assumed command of the Italian warships as a result of recent conferences with Admiral Arthur Piccardi, chief of the general staff of the Italian navy.
Ever since the scuttling of the French fleet at Toulon, Hitler had been urging Premier Mussolini to hand over his ships, it was said. Finally Admiral Doenitz was sent to Rome to Confer with Admiral Riccardi and other German and Italian naval officers.
Nazi Admiral Leutjens was said to have been appointed liaison officer between the two navies.
Admiral Doenitz was reported to have insisted that Mussolini use his fleet as an anti-invasion force, as well as a "striking weapon." Both Admiral Riccardi and Mussolini objected to the Nazi proposals but finally gave in, and Admiral Doenitz was designated commander of the joint Axis fleets.

THE NCAA PLAYOFFS
Tucker had plenty to do with keeping Oklahoma ahead throughout the first half. Besides making eleven points he did some excellent rebound and guard work. He was the only Sooner player who could keep up with Wyoming's two giants, Weir and Komenich.
Now that the Kansas City Western NCAA playoffs are over, many persons are wondering whether the tournament was conducted on a fair and square basis. We have in mind particularly the fouling out of Gerald Tucker before the first half was over in the Oklahoma-Wyoming game Friday night.
Oklahoma had a 19 to 11 lead when Titanic Tuck received his third foul. In danger of fouling out he couldn't keep up his close guarding and as a result the Cowboys began whittling down the Sooner's eight point lead. Wyoming had reduced the Sooner lead to two points when Tucker was sent to the showers with his fourth foul with three minutes to go in the first half.
We wonder if those in charge of the game were afraid that Oklahoma would come out of the playoffs as the Western representative. We wonder if the officials had received previous orders to give Wyoming the nod everytime there was a chance to do so. It certainly wouldn't look right for Oklahoma, third choice representative for the Fifth District, to whip Wyoming, first choice in their own district.
Wyoming was considered by many as the leading team in the nation its only loss to a college five was to Duquesne early in the season. Oklahoma had lost eight games and had ended up in second place in the Big Six Conference standings.
A great majority of the spectators were disgusted with the officiating of all the Western playoff games. At least the many fouls that were called had a lot to do with the outcome of all the games which were not decided until the final minute.

Kansas Begins Industrialization
The image provided is extremely blurry and lacks any discernible details. It appears to be a grayscale image with no visible text or distinctive features. Therefore, it is not possible to accurately answer the question about the type of file format or content it might represent. A clearer image would be needed to provide an accurate description.
Dean F. T. Stockton, of the School of Business, will sit with the Industrial Council of the Kansas Chamber of Commerce tomorrow when it considers programs for industrial research in Kansas.
With the appropriation of $90,000 for industrial research by the Kansas Industrial Development commission, the future of Kansas has been lifted from the farrow and the row into the limitless possibilities of industrialization.
The law stipulates that two-thirds of the appropriation must be used for the development of agricultural products and new ways of using them in industrial manufacture, which will mean more markets for Kansas farms.
The commission has assigned two important research activities, one to the University for the development of plastics to be produced from Kansas products, and the other to Kansas State College for a study of dehydration of farm products principally for human use.
Signing the bill Monday, Governor Schoeppel said: "The Legislature made one of the most farreaching decisions of that or any other session when it doubled the appropriations of the Kansas Industrial Development commission."
COUNCIL RESOLVES----

The Red Cross mobile unit will be in the Community building Apr. 8-9.
Students Procrastinate
Kansan reporters who attempted to compile a symposium of student reasons for not giving blood found that most students were not willing to be quoted. "I think that it is a good idea, but I haven't the time," was the most frequent reply to the question, "Why haven't you donated your blood?" Others said that the intramural track meet on the date that the mobile unit will be here interfered. Other answers were:
Bill Lane, senior engineer: "I wanted to donate some blood a few weeks ago but arrangements could not be made. Now I have quizzes coming up and do not feel that I can give any and still remain in good shape for finals."
Bob McCarty, business senior: "I just haven't gotten around to it."
Parents' Consent Needed
Mary Bea Flint, graduate. "I am going to, but I've been slow in doing it. I haven't got my parents' consent yet."
Bill Bunt, business junior; "I just haven't got around to it. My blood type is the most common one, so I figured they wouldn't need mine so badly right now."
Martin Haffield, College junior: "I plan to donate some'blood April 8."
Mildred Whitted, College sophomore: "I just haven't gotten around to going over, but I am going to when I get time."
Because the Red Cross asked for donations so soon after the University hospital many students had already lost interest.
Eldred Jones, College sophomore:
"Td thought about it but just haven't taken the time."
Students Lose Interest
Dr. Canuteson is now having a list compiled of the names of students who have donated blood which will be in the Kansan Thursday.
Newman Club Pledges Blood Bank Contributions
At their last regular meeting Sunday morning in St. John's church hall, members of the Newman Club pledged a 100 percent contribution to the University Blood Bank.
The pledge was taken after Vernon McKale, president, suggested that the Newman Club do what it could to make the Blood Bank drive a success.
MALOTT APPROVES----
(continued from page one) more student representation on extra-curricular activities committees; enlargement of the Activity Ticket committee; at least some members of the student council or councils be elected for two-year terms to insure experienced student representatives; that council leaders delegate more generally to council members the responsibility of University committee representation; and that a committee of four faculty members and six students be set up to handle administration-student problems.
The report as approved by the Chancellor follows:
Students To Serve As Advisors
(1) That students be given advisory representation on University committees which administer extra-curricular activities such as the Lecture course, Athletic board, and Union Operating committee. In most of these activities students are already represented.
(2) That the present Activity Ticket committee be enlarged to ten members, five faculty and five from the student council, to serve as a general policy-recommending committee for all activities financed by the activity ticket, and to administer the reserve fund.
(3) That student representation be provided on such committees as extra-curricular calendar, convocations and lectures, and freshman week. Student representation already exists on some of these committees.
Two Students On Each Committee (4) That, in the interest of continuity and wherever practicable, student representation on committees consists of two members appointed by each student council, one of whom shall have served one year on the committee and the other of whom shall be serving the first year of a two year term.
(6) That the council presidents be urged to delegate to fellow council members the responsibility of council representation on most University committees, in order to give other council members opportunity for leadership as well as to release the presidents from an overload of committee assignments.
(5) That the policy of two year terms be suggested to the student councils for part of their membership.
(7) That a joint student-faculty committee be appointed to consider and discuss problems of student welfare and general University interest; that the committee consist of ten members-four from the faculty, preferably representing four University schools, and six from the student body, preferably representing six different student groups or interests.

These bills cover the initiative, referendum, and legislative procedure for the new council if approved. In all, 19 joint bills of the two councils have been incorporated in this new bill which will put teeth in the proposed unicameral council.
The MSC also passed a resolution supporting the Red Cross blood bank drive, and appointed a committee headed by George Worrell to put the resolution into effect.

Constitution Covering Unicameral Plan Will Need Bills For Powerful Council
The future of student government at the University depends upon the action of the student body Thursday when the polls open for students to vote on the new unicameral plan. That it is the duty of every man and woman on the campus to take part in that decisive vote is no question, but just what action each student takes should be the result of careful and intelligent consideration of the new constitution set forth by the present Men's Student Council and the Women's Self-Governing Association.
Combining the MSC and WSGA into a unicameral system is one of the most promising and progressive ideas that student bodies at the University have had for some time. Especially now, during the times of decreasing enrollment when the strength of student government can be lost through two weak bodies completely independent of one another, is it well to work toward a unified system. With the bickering of politics cast aside, the MSC and WSGA have taken a step toward growth for student leadership.
Under this new constitution which does have a lot of merits and which is, no doubt, worth a trial, it will be up to the new council mostly to make the plan work. With responsible leadership and careful organization to start the plan working, the council can become powerful in its action on the campus. If, however, the operation of this new government is dependent mainly on the constitution, it will probably fall short of success.
On the surface, the constitution seems to be a loosely constructed document which a council governing under such a plan could mold and bend to fit its own interpretations. The plan as outlined is indefinite and full of general statements; however, such may have been the intentions of those who wrote it.
If it is the plan of the student governments to amend the proposed constitution after it has been accepted and to add more definite statements concerning its operation, then the general constitution presented will be a strong and workable document. Bills will need to be passed governing the election of the president. The constitution states that the president shall have served on the council before but shall be elected by the student body at large. The plan does not give any method of nomination nor does it state how such an election should be handled. This, according to the plans of the councils, will be regulated through additional rules and regulations set up to govern general elections so that the working of the council will be stable instead of varying from year to year.
Calling for representation of the two sexes from each school which shall tend toward a mean between proportional and equal representation, the constitution fails to set any ratio for this proportion. The plan states that it shall be fixed by the council in consultation with its advisory committee at least one month before the general election. This unsettled arrangement allows the proportion of representation to vary from year to year. Some years a member of the council may represent 200 students while the following year a member may represent 300 students. This might cause a variation
Just Wondering

What would happen if a fire were to start in one of the University buildings some night when there is no telephone service on the campus after the KU operator has gone and it is impossible to get a city operator.
--in the strength and power of the council, while a fixed proportion would tend to make the council more equal
The unicameral plan with the constitution presented is a definite improvement over the old bicameral system, and it deserves the support of the student body. The new council itself, however, under any constitution, no matter how weak or how strong, can not carry on student government alone. This constitution, if accepted, will be the constitution of the whole student body, and it will take the cooperation of the whole student body to make it successful.

Maybe his parents are cousins: Claudine Scott didn't think too much about it when Dale Lingelbach fell flat in her company the other night on 14th street. But when he collapsed again the same night—this time in the middle of the Corbin living room—she began to wonder. Lingelbach insists he had just had new heels put on his shoes, but when last interviewed Claudine was still unconvinced.

An educational feature: Although they professed chivalry, it is suspected that the forty-odd men who gathered to help Jean Scott down from Watkins roof Monday afternoon had ulterior motives. Jean had been taking a sunbath—or something. The wind was blowing its customary gale and when she started to descend by means of a narrow fire escape—the only means—complications set in. She took her hand from her skirt to hold on to the rail and the skirt billowed above her head. She held it down slighting the rail and there was the very concrete possibility of falling three stories.
A sharp Battenfeld boy first perceived the novelty of the situation and issued the call. Within five minutes Carruth, Templin, and Battenfeld boasted 100 per cent representation. Forty or so waited beneath the fire escape while others crawled out on their own roofs, or leaned from windows with opera glasses.
Jean was panic stricken. She didn't care particularly for the idea of remaining on the roof for the rest of her days, yet every time she attempted to descend the wind did the same thing to her skirt and the delight of the posse below increased.
Just when it looked as if she were going to have to come down whether or no, some traiter, by way of anti-elimax, hoisted a pair of blue jeans. Jean donned them in a corner of the roof visible to the least number of spectators and made an unrevealing descent. The chorus of boos was deafening.

Competition and private enterprise: Evidently John Wells, Phi Delt, couldn't stand to see his little brother such an important step ahead of him—anyway, the rumor still circulates that the elder of the Wells brothers also has joined up with the regulars. Quinton, the small fry, started going steady some weeks ago on account, no doubt, of the examples set by his two roommates, Jack McCoy and Kirk Scott (or perhaps it was Quinton who influenced Scott and McCoy—at present they are all equally unavailable.)
According to one story which emanates from a reliable source within the house, one evening at dinner after the Phi's sang "Let's go down to Merry Betty Layes" lustily three times to Scott and two encores of the "Speed Thee My Arrow" for Quinton, John left for the Pi Phi house with the remark that he must do something about this. And he did.
Spring Shift Comes On Ear-Muffs Leave
By JANE MINER
Against the sudden invasion of warm weather, KU coeds have counter-attacked with cotton dresses and light-weight jackets. The flannel skirts and the heavy tweeds have gone the way of "White Christmas," as have the heavy-knit, hip-length sweaters. sult, Lucy's been strolling around the campus with her favorite (the one she has the date more often. Sad to sth
Gayly-colored cotton dirndl skirts-as sure a proof of the coming of spring as the roller-skating and rope-skipping of grade schools- have hit Mt. Oread again.
Scuffed saddle oxfordies lie discarded in closets, and huaraches now squeak along campus walks and through library rooms—a never failing source of amusement to "on-hearers." With the number of new unrational playshoes seen around, it looks as if the government and the number 17 coupons are getting the run-around.
Bulky wool socks which formerly sheathed the ankles of Hill women have given away to gayly-colored cotton socks, or to no socks at all. The women have discarded their head scarves, and the men have put their brightly-colored ear-muffs in moth bails for the summer. And hair-bows and flowers are blossoming forth on Lucy's locks. As a result, Lucy's been strolling around the campus with her favorite man (the one she has the date with) more often. Sad to state, he still "ensacked" in his yellow cords (maybe they've been cleaned, though). The only sign of spring in him is his crew cut and the turning of his fancy. To what?—well, who knows?
Socks Are Lighter
(Editor's note to men: We even saw one girl in a pair of curvaceous white shorts.—No whistles, please.) New Hats to Church
With warm weather and a chance to wear that new hat, coeds flocked to church Sunday. But few were the new suits; probably the prospect of that new uniform restraints their buying.
Sailors on the Hill have doffed their jackets and brave the winds in their blue sleeves, and lie lazily on the lawn at lunch hour, as the

Farming Takes Time 'Let Us Cut'
A survey of the University shows that students are more willing to co-operate with the farmers of the vicinity to alleviate the farm labor shortage but because of class work do not have time to work in the fields.
The following opinions were expressed:
Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary—"I believe that the students are more than willing to help the local farmers but I don't believe they will be able to drop their school work, help the farmer, and still turn in the excellent work they've been doing.
"The University has a speed-up program in effect and the students are being pushed to finish their work in the shortest possible time. The only possible time that the students could work would be over the week, end but usually the weekend is reserved to catch up in class work or some other activity in which the student is interested."
Sewell Suggests Cuts
Glen Sewell, business junior—"I think it would be a noble and patriotic idea for the University to allow class cuts for the students helping the farmers."
Edward Tillman, engineering sophomore—"I wouldn't have time except on Friday afternoon, but perhaps other students who are not taking such a full schedule could help."
Daughter Interests Wilson
George Harvey, college freshman — "I'm not a farmer but I would be willing to work on the farm if an arrangement could be made so that I would not miss school. I rather doubt that the University can send many students back to the farm because of the heavy program."
Tom Wilson, college Freshman— "Help the farmer? If he has a good-looking daughter,' lead me to 'im."
Leland Bohl, engineering freshman
I don't know whether I would be
very efficient sowing tame oats or
not."
Florence Brown, college senior "If arrangements can be made with the University I think the idea of helping the farmer is a good one."

Earthquakes Often Reports California U.
Berkley, Calif., (ACP) - Earthquakes are an every-day affair to Perry Byerly, professor of seismology on the Berkeley campus of the University of California.
Records of the nine seismographs on the campus and others in the six out-stations show a yearly average of 650 shocks from all over the world.
The University seismographic stations on the Berkeley campus and on Mt. Hamilton are the oldest in the Western hemisphere and among the oldest in the world. They were set up in 1887 at the instigation of an astronomer, E. S. Holden, former president of the university and director of Lick observatory, and a geologist, Prof. Joseph LeConte.
The Berkeley station is also the headquarters of the Seismological Society of America, and the society's Bulletin is published there under editorship of George D. Louderback, professor of geology at the university.

Scientist Discovers Compound That Kills Smells By Burning
New York, (ACP)—Discovery of a chemical compound that will destroy any offensive odor known to man or beast is claimed by three industrial chemists.
Designated as OD-30, the compound was discovered by Dr. Walter H. Eddy, Columbia university; Dr. James H. Dalbey of Chicago; and Dr. Lloyd Arnold, University of Illinois.
OD-30, its discoverers said, has been successful in killing the odors of stench bombs, skunks, cooking cabbage, fish and butcher shops, dog pounds and public rest rooms.
Dr. Eddy explained the compound literally kills the smells by burning them with oxygen as they float in the air.

Glee Clubs Applauded Joint Concert Combines Talents of Mixed Group
By JEAN JONES
A variegated program with numbers ranging from patriotic music to the popular semi-classical scores of Sigmund Romberg characterized the program given by the combined men's and women's glee clubs last night in Hoch auditorium.
The first group of numbers opened with the singing of the National Anthem by the combined clubs led by Joseph Wilkins.
Then Hene Peabody directed the women's glee club in the "Pledge to the Flag," (Malotte) a short invocation of somewhat ecclesiastical tone. The men's club returned with "This Is My Country," (Jacobs-Ringwald). The first group closed with the two clubs singing, largely in unison, Jack Laffer's "Onward Kansas." This number was particularly stirring and gave the groups an opportunity to produce plenty of volume.
Men Presented Second Part
The men's glee club, led by Joseph Wilkins, took over the second part of the program. Their renditions of "The Creation," (Richter) a solid piece of choral writing, "John Peel," a hearty English hunting song; and "Land-Sighting," (Grieg) proved conclusively that fine workmanship, pleasing tone qualities, and satisfying volume are not dependent on a large number of men in the club. Howard Sutherland's baritone solo in "Land-Sighting," was particularly well received.
The third group consisted of a blithemese quintet of songs by the women's glee club, directed by Irene Peabody. Three folk songs, "Morning Now Beckons," (Czechish) "The Eagle," (Russian) and "Three Captains," (Czechish) were presented with suppleness and grace. Chaminade's "Evening Prayer" with solges by Maxine McGrannahan and Norma Lute had pleasing chime effects. "Goosie Goosie Gander," an old nursery rhyme set to music in the style of Mozart, contained a large amount of contrast. Marjorie Dickey capably handled the brief alto solo.
Comedy Numbers Were Fifth Part
Comedy Numbers Were Fifth Part
A series of comedy numbers entitled "Victory Garden Plots" occupied the fifth spot on the program. In "Planting Popular Tunes," Virginia Gsell, Esther DeBord, Betty Gsell, and Marjorie Dickey sang "Manhattan Serenade" and "A Pretty Girl Is Like a Melody," arranged by Thela Lehman, 42. Next "Blustery Blowing Blasts," featuring the Jayhawk Octette with a personnel of Jack Dodds, Glenn Lessenden, Matias Heuertz, John Hayne, Alan Martinek, Howard Sutherland, Clark Hargiss, Joe Stockard, Joe Nelson, and Jack Hines, showed the variety of musical sounds that can be produced from water-filled bottles. The calliope effects of "In the Good Old Summertime" were popular with the audience. In "Dising Dizzy Daisies," the women's glee club interpreted musically the idyll of two bicyclists, Everta Smith and Mathias Heuertz. The Jayhawk Octette returned to burlesque "Rigoletto." Jack Dodds portrayed the uninhibited Thespian.
Two Clubs Joined In Finale
As a finale, the two clubs, led by Joseph Wilkins, joined to sing two rousing excerpts from Romberg operettas, "Your Land and My Land," and "Stout Hearted Men" and the current number "This Is Worth Fighting For," (DeLange and Stepe). In line with tradition, the concert
Show Nets $387 For KU Nursery
Total proceeds from the recent ticket sale to the movie, "Journey for Margaret," amounted to $387.40. Mrs. A. J. Mix, chairman of the ticket sales committee for the Jayhawk Nursery, has announced.
Of that total $192.15 was netted from the sale of tickets, and contributions made in the lobby of the Granada theater along with additional contributions made to ticket sellers amounted to $195.25. More than 2100 tickets were sold during the drive, Mrs. Mix said.
Miss Marie Miller, assistant adviser of women, was the highest individual ticket seller, selling 113, and Miss Veta B. Lear, assistant to Dean Paul B. Lawson, was second with a sale of 67. C. A. Carmichael, manager of the Granada theater gave them eight and six passes respectively. Of the organized groups the Jay Janes were high with 202, and the CVC sold 135. Ruth Shaeffer and Althea Shuss, respective chairmen, also received passes.
The Nursery committee has expressed its appreciation for the cooperative spirit of committee chairmen, the theater manager, individuals and organizations who helped make the drive a success.
Recent donations to the Jayhawk Nursery fund include a gift of 120 dollars made by alumni of the University, Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Pratt Jr., of Fredonia. This sum makes possible the care of one child for a year.

His 'Eye' Starves ★★★ Tailor Appeals
Chicago, (INS)—Ferdinand D. Casanave, blind merchant tailor, sought from his rationing board to day 1 to 1 to 1-2 pounds of fresh ground beef daily for his seeing-eye dog, "Slim," which he claimed means to him "the difference between independence and dependence."
"Slim", a German shepherd dog obtained from the Seeing-Eye institute at Morristown, N. J., developed malnutrition some time ago and was put on a fresh meat diet, and veterinarians said the dog would become ill without the beef, Casanave said.
Casanave has been blind six years
Meat Packer Too Has Meatless Diet
Chicago, (INS) — Like everyone else in the nation, Oscar F. Mayer, one of the country's great packers, went on a meat ration yesterday, his 84th birthday, without any inconvenience to himself.
"I don't eat meat, not even my own products," Mayer chuckled. "I prefer poultry and fish. I never expected to see the day, however, when there would be a meat shortage in Chicago."
Mayer cooked his own birthday dinner, a saddle of moose which he brought back from a hunting trip in Canada last fall. He was also found in a chef's apron, roasting a turkey for his family. Cooking is Mayer's hobby.
Guests at Mayer's birthday dinner included Oscar G. Mayer, president of the Mayer Packing Company and Edward Collins, a son-in-law who is a distinguished concert pianist and composer.
