Popular, Opera Numbers Sung By Hussa
Maria Hussa, Viennese soprano presented a program of varied selections in Fraser theatre last night. Her entire performance reflected her brilliant career and great successes in opera. The program was composed of works of many great European composers. She was accompanied by Joseph Anderson.
Madame Hussa opened the concert with an aria from Gluck's opera, "Iphigenie." The next three selections, Schubert's "The Trout" and "Gretchen at the Spinning Wheel" and Grieg's "A Dream" were sung in English translation. The accompaniment of the second Schubert selection was a catchy spinning wheel effect. "If Love Has Entered Thy Heart" by Josef Morse completed the first group.
Two French compositions, "Oh Si Les Fleurs Avaient Des Veux" by Massenet and "Mandoline" by Debussy, were followed by the better-known "Songs My Mother Taught Me" and "Gypsy Song" by the Bohemian composer, Anton Dvorak. The next selection was a Czech folksong, "Hope," by Stepan. Nanna A Liana" by Bellini and "Ri-
Ramia A Lana" by Bellini and "Ri-
Madame Hussa sane sang two Italian selections. The first, "Nina torna Vinciter" (aria from "Aida") by Verdi. "All Soul's Day" and Cascille" by Richard Strauss followed.
The next four selections were the familiar "Drink to Me Only with Tine Eyes" by Roger Quilter; "The Fairy Pipers." Brewer; "The Message of the Storks," Hugo Wolf; and "At the Well," Hagemann.
To climax her performance Madame Hussa sang "Czardas" (from "The Bat"), by Johann Strauss.

Concert Sunday Was First Of Summer
The summer session band, directed by Prof. Russell L. Wiley, presented its first concert for the summer, Sunday evening in Fowler Grove:
"There will be three or perhaps four band concerts this summer with programs not quite as heavy as in previous years. New tunes that have come out during the present war will be featured in all concerts," said Professor Wiley.
"This is Worth Fighting For," by DeLange-Stept was a new song played at the concert Sunday night.
"When the Lights Go on again All over the World," by Seller-Marcus-Benjemen and "The Man I Love," by Gershwin were sung by Miss Ruth Russell, soprano, of the School of Fine Arts.
Miss Barbara Haas, freshman, clarinet soloist, was featured in "Zingaresca, Gypsy Caprice," by Curzon.
Professor Wiley stated that he believed a good many K. U. persons would remember Harold Adamson, who was in school here about 1928 or 1930 and who later wrote many musical shows in Hollywood. He now comes in with a top hit tune, "Coming in on a Wing and a Prayer."
"Marching Along Together" by Savino was built along several well known war melodies of the present time. Professor Wiley asked the audience to note the tunes as the number was played.
A march version of the famous war tune of World War I, "Over There" by George Cohan was a feature number of the concert.
"Star-Spangled Banner," Key; "March Heroic," Holmes; "Emperor Waltz," Strauss; One for All-All for one," Rich-Curtis; "Let's Bring New Glory to Old Glory," Gordon-Warren and "You're a Grand Old Flag," by Cohan were the other numbers used to complete the hour and 15-minute concert.
The band will present the second Sunday evening concert in Fowler Grove on July 18.
Fortress Engine To Be Exhibited
After the convocation students will be allowed to examine the Flying Fortress engine, and Mr. Perkey will answer any questions.

All engineering students, Navy and civilian, are required to attend this lecture and will be excused from their 1:30 classes.
Miss Margaret Rinker of Wakeeney visited her sister Shirley at Corbin hall, Wednesday.
Grad Is Author Of Recent Hit Song
Hal Adamson, a student at the University from 1926 to 1928, is the author of the words to the new hit tune "Coming In on a Wing and a Prayer." The song was played by the University Band at its concert Sunday evening.
Adamson wrote the words for the musical shows while he was a student here. When he left, he had a contract with Vincent Youmans. Later, he went to Hollywood to write for Metro Goldwyn Mayer.
V-12's Can Buy Activity Tickets
Men in the V-12 engineering program are permitted to buy regular student functions, in addition to the armit to football games and all other University activity tickets which special student Union tickets, according to Raymond Nichols, executive secretary.
"The Navy has urged the men to take part in extra-curricular activities as regular students and hopes its men will take advantage of the activity tickets offered," said Nichols.
Price of the full activity ticket is $9.24 and the special Union ticket, $1. The regular activity ticket may be purchased at the University business office, and the Union ticket at the hostess desk in the Union building.
The Union ticket, announcement of which was made last week by Henry Werner of the Union Operating Committee, permits service holders to use all facilities of the Memorial Union building, including ping pong tables, games, dances and all-student functions.
It was originated in an effort to distribute more evenly the cost of maintaining the Union building among those persons using it.

New Student, V-12 Tests Tomorrow
Prof. A. H. Turney, head of the psychology test department, announced yesterday that V-12 and new regularly enrolled students will take their psychological and aptitude tests tomorrow in Hoch auditorium. The psychological examinations will be given at 9 a.m. and the aptitude examinations will be given at 2 p.m. Professor Turnery emphasized that it will be necessary for the students to be present for both examinations.

Senate To Meet To Consider Calendar Change
A special meeting of the University Senate has been called for 4:30 this afternoon to discuss the scheduling of semesters at the University for the next year.
next year.
According to Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, plans will be submitted to the Senate by the Calendar Committee to start the regular fall semester in September, soon after the present semester is ended. L. C. Woodruff, registrar, is chairman of the Calendar Committee. School will continue for five weeks, at which time a change in courses will be made and students will embark on a term which will extend 16 weeks, under the plan. In that way, all schools and departments of the University will begin and end at approximately the same time.
School authorities have pointed out that there will be no break or vacation in school when the full term is started about November 1. It is felt that University facilities are too valuable to remain idle for any appreciable length of time.
Rushing activities, pledging, and freshman orientation will take place at the beginning of the September session.
Final action on the matter is in the hands of the Senate, composed of faculty members of the rank of associate professor or above.
Realey
Is Now
A Captain
—(From the Fort Leavenworth Re-
cension Center "News.")
When Sgt. Charles B. Realey, formerly professor of history at the University of Kansas, was inducted at the Fort Leavenworth Reception Center in July, 1942, he had no idea he would be commissioned a captain just one year later.
Word was received this week that Sergeant Realey, who for the past year has been assigned to the Command and General Staff School Library, has been granted that commission, effective July 5.
Sergeant Realey's duties consisted of work on the widely read and authoritative Military Review. He will continue to be a member of the staff of that publication.
No figures on registration yesterday in the School of Engineering and Architecture are available yet, though approximately 500 V-12 men and a greater number of civilians had gone through the line.

Mr. Nichols, in discussing advantages of the activity tickets, said he thought that the regular fall ticket is the best investment. He pointed out that if a student buys a Union ticket and later decides he would rather participate more widely in activities and decides to buy the regular ticket, in doing so he would duplicate his purchase of the right to use Union building facilities.

Sport Chatter
By Bob Bock
Football uniforms will be issued to all prospective gridders next Monday, July 12. The exact time for practices has not as yet been settled, but will be determined this week as Lieut. Mickelman, commanding officer of V-12, will then be able to determine when the V-12 boys will be able to best arrange their time for outside activities such as football. Friday's Kansan will give the complete details as to when practice sessions will be held. They will probably be from 4:30 to 6:00 or from 7:30 until dark.
☆
Uncle Sam has not been subsidizing football players, but he's done a grand job in recruiting them, for the V-12 program has brought in many good gridders: Warren Riegel, end, Charles Keller, a guard, and Dale Bush and Joe Gray, both backs, all members of last year's freshman team, are naval trainees here on the Hill. Don Barrington, a fullback on the Kansas City Junior College eleven, is also one of the naval trainees as are several fellows from the Pacific coast who have had football experience. Also many high school grid stars are in the navy ranks here and they include Dickey, Southwest High, Kansas City, who was an Interscholastic League all-star, Pence, a center from Manhattan, and quite a few other boys just out of high school. Also there are several high school footballers not in the navy who are attending the summer session and who are expected to report. Charles Moffett, tricky halfback from Peabody, is one of those boys.
Oklahoma institutions of higher education will abandon the three-semester plan to speed college careers and technical training, after the state board of regents approved a report of its calendar committee suggesting such action.
This group, with Junius Penny and perhaps Grant Hunter, should give Coach Shenk material with which to get the ball rolling as Shenk wants to have not only a good aerial attack this fall, but also a running attack, the like of which K.U. has not seen for a number of years.
Oklahoma Abandons 3-Semester Plan
However, the University of Okla-
homa, loaded with army and navy
students and many deferred technical students, has expressed a desire to keep on with the 16-week semester and the regents empowered T. G. Sexton, administrative officer, to confer with University President Joseph A. Brandt.
The regents believed that lowering the draft age to 18 years lessened the need for the speed-up program, since most boys will go directly to the army now, instead of being allowed a period of a year or two in which they could attend college. The return to two semesters of 18 weeks each will start this fall.
Dorothy Rinker, a visitor in Lawrence last week, and Nana Mae Hartley, Lawrence, spent the weekend in Hamilton.
"All for our country" is the state motto of Nevada.

Rear Admiral To Visit Station Today
Rear Admiral William Brent Young, Chief of the Bureau of Supplies and Accounts and Paymaster General of the Navy, will visit the Naval Training School at the University this afternoon. Admiral Young is scheduled to be in Lawrence only a short time.
Admiral Young makes frequent inspections of the supply activities in the field because he likes to see things for himself. Recently returned from a 24,000 mile flight to the Pacific and South Pacific areas, he flew with Admiral Halsey and conferred with the highest ranking officers in Australian and New Zealand.
Admiral Young is responsible for clothing and feeding our sailors; for procuring and delivering all the fuel used by our vessels; and for purchasing, warehousing, shipping, and issuing virtually all the supplies and materials used by the entire naval establishment, except certain items of ordnance, munitions, and medical stores.
The magnitude of that job may be indicated in part by the fact that the Bureau of Supplies and Accounts awarded contracts during 1942 for materials totalling approximately fourteen billion dollars.
19 Of Faculty Are Promoted
Six members of the University faculty in Lawrence have been advanced in rank and 13 members of the staff of the School of Medicine at Kansas City have received promotions, the Chancellor's office revealed this week.
At Kansas City, Frank D. Dickson,
associate clinical professor of surgery has been advanced to clinical professor, and promoted to associate professor were H. L. Jones, assistant professor of medicine, Sara Patterson, assistant professor of nursing education, and Paul Lorhan, assistant professor of surgery.
Advanced from the rank of assistant professor to associate professor were P. O. Bell, mathematics, Roy A. Bowers, pharmacy, E. Thayer Gaston, public school music, and E. O. Stone, political science.
Promoted to assistant professor from instructorships were H. H. Barschall and L. N. Liebermann, both of the physics department.
A. T. Steigman, associate in neurology, and John Aull, associate in pediatrics, have been promoted to assistant professorships.

Chancellor Will Welcome V-12's Monday In Hoch
Members of the V-12 unit will be welcomed to the University at a convocation to be held next Monday at 10 a.m., in Hoch auditorium, Raymond Nichols, University executive secretary, said yesterday. Chancellor Deane W. Malott will deliver the welcome.
The summer session band, under the direction of Prof. Russell L. Wiley, will play two numbers to open the convocation and will be followed by Prof. Joseph F. Wilkins, head of the Fine Arts voice department, leading the audience in singing the "Star Spangled Banner."
Lt. A. H. Buhl, commanding officer of the machinists mates school, Leonard Axe, professor of economics and University housing administrator, and Lt. C. A. Mickelman, commanding officer of the V-12 unit, will be introduced by Professor Wiley to those present at the convoction.
Following Chancellor Malott's address, Professor Wilkins will lead the audience in singing the "Alma Mater."
Thirsty? 35 Coolers On Campus
by Dolores Sulzman
Any student—freshie, medics, sailor, engineer, or technician trainee—will admit that there's nothing like a shot of good ol' H2O after a 50-minute session of summer book-learning in a stuffy classroom and—well, yes, perhaps a dry lecture.
With a pencil stub, scratch pad, and a little calculation Harold Eberhart, plumber foreman of the University, chalked up a total of 35 water fountains on our campus. Ten of these are electric fountains and are cooled by refrigeration. They were installed within the past few years.
The other 25 fountains are the familiar, gray, tub-like affairs. And here the icemaker takes over. For the 25 ice-cooled fountains on the campus, two men from Buildings and Grounds distribute about 1,250 pounds of ice a day. Every morning before 9 o'clock a chunk of ice weighing between 45 and 50 pounds is put in each fountain.
The fountains in Watson library and several others located in the "heavier drinking" spots are re-

All engineering students are required to attend a meeting at 1:30 Saturday afternoon in Hoch auditorium, according to an announcement by the School of Engineering and Architecture.
Engineering Assembly
The meeting has been called by the enrollment committee, and changes in the engineering schedule will be announced at that time.
Graduate Honored With Flying Cross
Staff Sgt. Dell A. Love, former student at the University and resident of Lawrence, has been awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for extraordinary achievements in the European theater of operation, the War Department has reported.
Love went into the army in January, 1941. He was a senior in the School of Business at the time he left the University to take his training in Georgia. Since then he has been in England, North Africa, and the Middle East. He is a radioman on a bomber.
Advisory Period Announced For Underclassmen
The mid-semester advising period for freshmen and sophomores in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will be held Monday, July 19, through Wednesday, July 21, Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College, has announced.
The names of all freshmen and sophomores in the College together with the names of their advisers are posted on the bulletin board in the hall opposite the College office. The office hours of each faculty adviser are also posted on the list.
Students who desire a statement concerning their standing in the middle of the semester may obtain it from their advisers, said Dean Ulmer. All students enrolled as freshmen and sophomores in the College are expected to see their faculty advisers within the period mentioned above, since it is the only way they can obtain their mid-semester reports, he added.
"During the advising conferences the students can not only learn of their scholastic standing, but they can also plan their next semester's work with their adviser and discuss their progress towards satisfying distribution requirements," said Dean Ulmer.
Reports are mailed to the parents of freshmen and sophomore students who have as many as five hours of "F" or are reported as unsatisfactory in over 40 per cent of their program.
Juniors and seniors who have unsatisfactory work will have reports of it mailed to them as soon as the grades of the freshmen and sophomores reach their advisers.
ASC To Check Status of Military
Status of service men on the campus in relation to student government is now being investigated by a committee appointed by Clarence Engl. president to the All-Student Council, at a regular council meeting last Tuesday evening at 7:30 in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building.

Senate Moves For Uniform Fall Semester
By the K.U. News Bureau
BY THE K.U. NEWS BUREAU Synchronization of the starting time of the winter semester for civilians with that of the Navy's V-12 engineers was effected Tuesday when the University Senate approved a change in the calendar to open the winter term on October 31, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced.
The University will officially open on September 23 as scheduled, Chancellor Malott said. A five week term for both freshmen and upperclassmen will open on September 23 and continue until the last week in October, and during this period courses will be available in all divisions of the University. Included in this period will be psychological examinations and orientation programs for new students as well as sorority and fraternity rushing activities.
The move, University officials believe, will further accelerate the speeded up program of the University in its all-out war cooperation. Particularly in the college, Dean Paul B. Lawson indicated, will this be true. With five hours available during the fall term and with the average load of 16 hours during the winter semester, it will be possible for a freshman entering in September to achieve sophomore status by
To Collect Blood July 19 And 20
(continued to page four)
A Red Cross mobile unit will be in Lawrence July 19 and 20 to collect blood for the processing of blood plasma for use by the armed services, and any person who wishes to become a donor may call the local Red Cross office to register his name.
Persons between the ages of 21 and 60 need only to register by telephone and can give their blood when the unit arrives in Lawrence. Persons who wish to give blood but who are between 17 and 21 years of age must have written permission from their parents before they will be allowed to donate, according to local Red Cross officials. A printed form may be secured at the Red Cross office in the Community building and can be presented at the dfnitao mfoteiao f F- oitem time of donation, they state.
Registration of donors began last Tuesday and office hours are from 9 to 12 a.m. and 1:30 to 5 p.m. The telephone number of the Red Cross office is City-640.
Local officials state that Lawrence's quota will be 500 pints of blood, in comparison to the national quota of 4,000,000 pints.
Sgt. Dan Aul, former law student at the University, is home on fur-lough. He has been stationed at Davis Mothman Field, Tucson, Arizona.

It was gratifying, in a sense, to hear that the navy will permit their trainees to participate in athletic activities under the college training program, of which the University has an engineering and medical unit.
Football May Bring Feeling of Unity To University
This will permit the continuation of varsity sports, a situation which would be next to impossible if only regular students were relied upon. University sources have intimated that in the engineering trainees there may be several men who have played big-time college football, and there will undoubtedly be scores of good ex-high school players. In this respect, K.U. is probably better off than any other Big Six school. For instance, Kansas State and Nebraska have only army trainees, who are not allowed to take part in school activities.
Hopes for a world-beating team cannot be built as yet, however. To be eligible to participate in school athletics, a trainee must have the permission of the commanding officer. And that permission will depend upon the trainee's grades and progress in his studies. As Lieutenant Mickelman, V-12 commanding officer, has said, "They are here to study. Anything else must be secondary."
In peacetime, football and scholastic excellence went together and unless football practices and trips are short this fall, too much time would be consumed for many men to play. However, none of the trainees will be working outside of school hours, as have done many football men in the past.
There is a side to the matter, though, which should be taken into very thoughtful consideration. That side, of course, involves the old plague of finances. The University has not been noted for making money off the football team, and were it not for the activity fee, football deficits would be sky-high every season. Next fall will present a picture which will compare to this year's none too bright picture. Enrollment in the regular student body will be even further diminished and funds will be lower.
One alleviation of the situation may lie in the permission granted to V-12 men by their commanding officer to buy activity tickets. If all of them bought tickets, that would mean 400 more in the stands at each game, were they able to attend. Army medics and pre-medics are also being permitted to attend student functions, and if aeronautical technicians and signal corps trainees purchased them to any great extent, it would mean not only a smaller deficit but that members of the University's different programs were beginning to feel they were really members of the University community.
A source of much spirit and enthusiasm could be the trainees at the machinist's mates school. Not all of them get liberty on Saturday afternoon, but at times they attend convocations and their commanding officer might permit them to attend football games.
There have been a number of articles written on the subject of football in wartime, many of them questioning its value as such a period. To us football will have proved valuable if this fall is manages to unite the separate groups of the University into a unit, even though the unit be not exceptionally stable. Unity, with determination and effort, is essential for prosecution of the war and anything which promotes unity, especially among the armed forces, is worthwhile.
Letter to the Editor Summer Session Kansan Gentlemen:
In one of my less sane moments I was guilty of the enclosed poem. Feel free to use it if it amuses you as much as it amused me to write it.
Yours truly, Edward Zimmerman
When Will I Ever Learn
Two sparkling, bright-blue eves
Staring open wide;
Two golden curly locks,
One on either side;
Two warm and laughing lips
Vowing to be true;
Two fair, but crimson cheeks,
Blushing "I love you;"
Two little, dancing feet,
Never would be still
Two deftly moving hands,
Ev'ry touch a thrill.
Two there were of everything,
And so—thou woeful loss—
It seems there simply had to be
Her little double-cross.

In 1884 students paid $1.65 for a week's board, which included blackberry pie and beefsteak.
The law students—engineer historical feud began when the two schools were located in opposite ends of Fraser hall.
Cribbage tournaments were the vogue at the University in 1914.
Fraser hall was the first building on the campus proper. It was built in 1872 and cost $182,000.
The second building on the campus was the Journalism building which was constructed in 1874.
Some University `buildings are constructed of Oread limestone, which began forming about 20,- 000,000 B.C.
In front of Fraser hall was the location of trenches and fortifications which were used during the John Brown and Quantreal raids. There is a marker on the site.
The prairie grass plot south of Blake hall is the only natural such plot left on the campus.
Robinson gym was named for the first governor of Kansas.
There were 26 women and 29 men enrolled in the first session of the University. That was in 1866 at North college on what is now called Corbin hill.
The west boundary of the campus used to lie just west of Watson library.
There once was a creek where the 50-yard line now is in Memorial stadium.
The smokestack at the power plant is 257 feet high.
Work on Frank Strong hall (formerly called the Administration building) was begun in 1911 and neared completion in 1923.

The large number of men who have recently invaded the K.U. campus only go to further the oid adage that this war causes, "Not a shortage of manpower, but poor distribution." I don't hear any of the K.U. girls complaining. . . Bob Isaac, Sigma Chi, who evidently doesn't get enough sleep, awakens in classes just long enough to keep up. In Shakespeare class the other day, Prof. Ashton was explaining that the Duke in "Measure for Measure" was like the hero in the serials on Saturday night.
"He always arrives in time to save the girl and shoot the switch that's carrying her toward the saw," saaac roused, yawned, and wrote on his paper, "The duke arrived just in time to shoot the switch."
Five BIG boys Sunday night, of college age, no less, maschievously placed a cannon cracker in the screen at Corbin. After sufficiently scaring the girls, they dashed madly to their car and made a quick geta-way. "Now I know it's Fourth of July!" screamed Frances Abts. Harry Johnson walked into Radio Speaking class late the other day, sat down, looked around, and said, voice. Just then Prof. Calderwood walked around the corner. "Where's the teacher?" in a loud "Shucks." said Johnson in an equally loud voice, "I was just going to say something about him."
Frank Rush, ATO, reads about opium and claims it's just for a report. . . Wally Grimes, Sigma Chi, shows off a new crew cut. What we want to know is, when does Joe Nelson get one? . . . The girls are mighty happy to get later closing hours on weekends, and now find that they will be taking their Navy boyfriends home first. Maybe the girls can meet now after dates and have bake sessions in the local coke joints as the boys used to do. . . Sonny Love writes back that in Philadelphia, the boys get liberty every night. "Just like college used to be," he reports. . Oberlin boys write that as a town Oberlin just hasn't got it. "Only one beer parlor, and it's restricted," so says Danny Bachmann.
Danny Bachmann, stationed at Oberlin, Ohio, writes the following: "The K.U. delegation here at Oberlin has instructed the soda jerkers the manner in which 'Allen Specials' are made, and we order them regularly. Really fine—we get together to chat and stuff, and sing of old K.U.

Plays Available For Teachers' Use
A special drama collection entitled "Plays For These Times" is available for loan in room 17 of Fraser hall. This collection is in addition to the University's regular drama loan service in which some 8,000 plays are offered by the Bureau of General Information library.
The Drama Loan service, directed by Mrs. M. M. Bair, also offers personal assistance to those teachers making complete or tentative plans for speech and drama programs. Mrs. Bair stated that she will be pleased to arange for conferences where she may assist teachers in finding "just the right thing" to meet their own specific needs.
In response to numerous requests for entertainment material relative to the war and the peace, this collection of plays and pageants has been made available, according to officials. New titles are added each week.

Sport Chatter
By Bob Bock
If only the army would just let down the barriers so army trainees will participate in football as the navy boys in the colleges are, football could indeed go through a healthy season this fall, but the way it is now, many colleges without navy programs are being forced to give up the pigskin game for lack of players.
This is what Sammy Weiss, congressman from Pennsylvania, professional grid referee and former Duquesne star, has to say about the matter:
"At this late date, there is only one thing that can save intercollegiate football and that is for the army to give its trainees the go-ahead sign. West Point officials have declared their enthusiasm for continuing the sport, and the cadets will play a schedule this autumn. What I can't understand is how West Point and Annapolis and navy preflight and navy trainees can play,vet the army trainees can't."
The army has 130,000 young men in the colleges undergoing special training as engineers, medical officers, and in other technical pursuits. However, army officials said last week that the schedule set for these soldiers simply does not allow enough time for football, much as they'd like to arrange it.
This is what Freddy Mendell, sports editor of the Hutchinson News-Herald has to say, "From what we have been able to learn, Henry Shenk is going to introduce the V-12 football system at K.U. this fall. Like the T program, it involves mystery and trickery. In the T program, the opposing coach and players always worried about the disappearing half-back. In the V-12 program, this becomes the home coach's worry. All the V-12 boys are in specialized military programs and subject to sudden falls for transfers or service."
Dean Nesmith, who has recently undergone a tonsillectomy, will be here next week to take over his duties as trainer, all ready to take care of footballers if and when they need help; care of.
Ray Kanehl, who has purchased a ome at 824 Arkansas, will take up its duties as a physical education instructor this week. Kanehl, who was formerly director of athletics at Kanehl East High School, had very successful track teams there, this year's in particular, as his Blue Aces per scoring over 100 points in theutchinson regional, took top honors in the state track and field meet which was held in Wichita.
Royal Lohry, 1942 Iowa State foot ill captain and all-Big Six fullback, d Bob Stueber, Missouri's All-american halfback, have been inked to participate in the 1943 College all-star football game with the chasington Redskins August 27 in milder Field, Chicago.

Grid Suits Out, First Practice Monday P.M.
Henry Shenk, head football mentor, announced yesterday that football suits will be checked out beginning at 2:30 on Monday afternoon with the first summer football practice in K.U. history scheduled Monday from 4:30 until 6:00. All boys interested in coming out should report at the dressing room on the east side of the stadium where Dean Nesmith, who is back again as trainer, will fit the boys out in uniforms.
All men who are interested and want to play football, whether they have had previous experience or not, are requested by Coach Shenk to come out for summer practice. This will include Navy trainees (V-12 students) and Naval cadets, as well as the civilian students.
Practices will be from 4:30 until 6:00 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays as that is the only time that Navy trainees would be able to get off, and probably is about the best time of day for workouts anway.
Never before has any coach scheduled a first football workout with as little knowledge of what he will have to work with, but Coach Shenk says that he is anything but dubious.

iced in the middle of the afternoon.
Mr. Eberhardt said they were using no more ice this summer than they used during the winter. The way it works out, according to Mr. Eberhart, is, "When the 50 pounds of ice are gone, the water gets warm—winter* or summer." All of which means that occasionally, after a dry lecture, ye students will celebrate with a warm drink.
If you happen to be one of the inquisitive kind and are tempted to lift the cover on one of the ice-cooled fountains, don't draw any rash conclusions. The plumber foreman has been somewhat disturbed by hearing students exclaim, after a flash glance under the cover, "Yipe! take a gander at that dirty ice that's cooling this water."
To stress this sanitation angle a little further, it is well to note that all fountains on the campus are equipped with sanitary heads. These heads with a two-stream mound projector keep the water from falling back over the head.
As Mr. Eberhart explained it, the ice cools the copper covered coils through which the water flows and not the water directly. In case any freshmen are interested, there are some fine pictures at the repair shops which explain the whole process.

concerned. An average of 150 gallons of water is being used every minute here on the Hill.
All water used on the campus is registered through the flow-meter at the power plant (located in back of the hospital). One dial on the flow-meter shows the amount of water being used each minute. At 11:44 Wednesday morning the dial hand was at 155 gallons.
This summer the 10 minutes between 20 and 30 minutes after the hour show a definite jump on the chart. That's right, brother, 35 drinking fountains on the job for K.U.'s thirsty summer scholars.
Another part of the flow-meter registers, on a chart, a minute-by-minute account of the water usage for an entire day. The chart for Wednesday showed the high point to be 250 gallons at 9:30 a.m., and the low point, 20 gallons at 1:30 am.
Miller Says Jobs Open For Women
Miss Marie Miller, assistant advisor of women, has stated that she has had calls for stenographers who can take shorthand dictation. She said there were many openings for college women with this kind of experience. She also has many calls for women who wish to earn part of their living expenses by doing part-time work in private homes. Food service and household work are paying 35 cents an hour. Those who want to take care of children are being paid a minimum of 25 cents an hour, according to Miss Miller.
If there are any women who wish to secure employment and who have not registered at the Women's Employment office in Fraser, Miss Miller urges them to register immediately. Any woman who wishes to apply for work should bring her class schedule with her.
Offices Redecorated
The suite of two rooms in which are located the offices of adviser of women and her assistant, is being re-decorated this summer. The inner office, room 102 and Miss Meguiar's office, has been completed and the outer room, Miss Miller's office, is in the process of being replastered.
Graduate An Ensign
Corpus. Christi, Tex—John W. Martin, son of Mrs. Ruth W. Martin, 1600 Rhode Island St., Lawrence, Kans., graduated last week from the naval air training center, Corpus Christi, and was commissioned an ensign in the U.S. Naval Reserve.
He is a former student of the University of Kansas, and is a member of Delta Chi fraternity.
In 1913 board cost University students $3 a week and room rent was $4 a month. Now we know what they mean by the expression, "The good old days."
The first publication at the University was "The Observer of Nature," published in 1874 by the students of natural history.

'Strictly Scuttlebutt'
By Lt. (jg) C. V. McGuigan, U.S.N.R.
BY LL. (yg) C. V. MCGUNGAN, U.S.A.
The latest scuttlebutt has it that the "Flying Jayhawk Review" will be here the 15th of July. "They" say it really is a good show with a band that "can really turn it out." All military personnel, their wives and close personal friends are invited. The show will start at approximately 1945.
Welcome to the V-12 boys, and a bit of praise for their marching ability to date. Without previous training, the boys have turned in a remarkable performance. The boys should be in uniform shortly, and the good ship, "K.U." will be very well manned with blue jackets.
Through the scuttlebutt grapevine, comes word of quite an argument recently. It concerns the two WAVE officers now on duty at the University. Their names are Ensign Florence Buerckholtz and Marjorie Stranahan, and welcome to the Jayhawk state. They hail, respectively, from Whiting, Indiana, and Cleveland, Ohio. Now to the argument—"How do you greet a Wave Officer?" The answer is—"Good morning, Miss Buerckholtz," or, if you don't know the wave officer's name, then,—"Good morning, Ensign," "Lieutenant" (or whatever rank she holds). It is permissable to say "Good morning, Miss," but it is not preferred. Hope that helps a little.
They say that the officers attached to the machinists' mates school have aching muscles. The reason is the command course, which the officers are now touring, and it's not a tour of inspection, but part of their "toughening up" program. The former phy. ed. officer was reported "gold bricking" with a sore back. What an excuse.)
With the lack of transportation facilities becoming more acute every day, wouldn't it be a good idea for anyone driving to the campus or to downtown Lawrence, to offer men in the service a lift?
Here are some for the Book of Honor. Two men, R. L. Bernard, of 12th Division, 2nd Platoon, and R. L. Powers, of 12th Division, 3rd Platoon. Each of the two boys found money lying on the deck. There was no billfold or means of determining ownership. However, they still turned the money into the Officer of the Deck, with the simple statement, "Here's some money I found." I

don't know who it belongs to, but maybe someone will ask for it."—Another proof that "This is worth fighting for."
We wind up today's repartee with a welcome to the 13th Division as they come aboard. Their Division Officer is Lt. (jg) O. N. Pederson, who made an enviable record with the 9th Division. The 13th has fallen into line in fine shape already, and appear to be "a fine bunch of boys capable of carrying on the school's fine record."—And this is bearing in mind that they are the 13th too!

"The women should realize that the committee took this action because we believed that they desired the new hours, and now it is up to them as to whether or not the hours will be permanent," Miss Larson stated.
The committee will make out the closing hours for final week at their next meeting and will continue their revision of the house rules.

graduate in two and two-thirds years, the new program may make it possible to clip another semester from that period, Dean Lawson asid. With the five hours gained in the fall term beginning in September, and with an extra hour or two added to the regular college load, it is quite possible to gain a full semester during the eight semester period.
Chief reasons for reestablishing the starting date of the University's winter semester were the teaching manpower situation and classroom accommodations. Running two semesters on different calendar schedules—one for the naval engineers and another for civilian students—would require in many instances duplication of staff members and classroom space. Both problems, the administration pointed out, are practically insurmountable under the press of war conditions, except by running the semesters concurrently.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, TUESDAY, JULY 13, 1943
Engine School Re-enrollment Saturday P.M.
Extensive changes in the engineering schedule ended in a re-enrollment session for civilian and navy V-12 engineers Saturday afternoon in Hoch auditorium. The unexpected number of freshman enrollees caused the main upset in the enrollment program according to F. L. Brown, professor of applied science, and Tell Ertl, assistant professor of mining engineering, directors of the enrollment committee.
"The proportion of freshmen was much greater than expected," said Professor Brown. "The provisions made for beginning courses proved to be entirely inadequate. Many sections for advanced students were unbalanced and some could be eliminated."
At the end of enrollment Tuesday it was discovered that nearly one-half of the engineers enrolled were freshmen. Out of 649 enrollees, 304 are freshman students, according to figures from the office of the dean of the School of Engineering and Architecture. The 304 freshman engineers represent 68 civilian students and 236 navy V-12 men.
"The exact number and classification of the V-12 men was not known in advance. Therefore, in making out the enrollment schedule, we based our apportionment of courses on past enrollments," Professor Brown said.
When classes met for the new semester Thursday, instructors in math and physics found that their classes were from three to four times as large as they could handle.
"Physics and math courses for beginning engineers required the most adjustment," Professor Brown continued. "Several courses for advanced students were knocked out entirely."

One of the largest audiences that has come out for any of the Summer Session musical events was present Sunday evening for the first of the summer session all-musical服ers.
Sunday Vespers Well Attended
The program, lasting a little under an hour, was a delightful one in character and each of the four separate items of instrumental and choral ensemble as well as the opening organ prelude was excellently presented.
Laurel Everett Anderson opened the program with a spirited and easily-cut performance of the Viine "Carillon," showing off the possibilities of the great University organ in fine style. Especially praiseworthy was his pedal technique.

Band Will Play In Concert Sunday
The concert to be given Sunday evening at 8 o'clock by the summer session band will be the second of a series of concerts to be presented during the summer months. David T. Lawson will be featured as vocal soloist.
Prof. Russell L. Wiley, director of the band, announced today that the program will be entirely different from the selection of numbers played at the concert July 4.
29 Pass English Proficiency
Results of the proficiency examination in English composition which was given June 19 were announced yesterday by Prof. John B. Virtue of the English department.
The 29 students passing the examination are William R. Allen, Barbara Ann Barber, William W. Benefiel, Kathryn Bonewits, Geneva Brown, Vinita Calver, Jeanette Coons, Vincent Christ, Elizabeth Crafton, R. E. Douce, Barbara Duree, Phillip Ferguson, James Fowler, Lewis Goyette, Dolores Grossenbacher, Marshall Hullett, Theodore Lehmann, Esther Lewis, Justine Mansfield, Opaline Mayes, Edith Olmsted, James Proctor, Dan Ragle, James S.

Sailors Wait Clothes Lost In Flood
The ninth division were supplied their clothing before they left Lawrence, but the members of the remaining divisions will ont be reimbursed until the clothing shipment is received.
Pending the arrival of more clothing, nothing is being done to replace the clothing and shoes ruined by the machinists mates in fighting the flood waters of the Kaw river, according to G. O. Starkey, chief yeoman, U.S.N.
Part of this $5,000 was used to finance a military picnic at Haskell stadium on the evening of June 24, as a reward for service and labor during the Kaw rampage. The picnic was attended by army medics, naval air cadets, and sailors of the training school as well as members of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce which has charge of the "service men's fund".
The money for the clothing is provided by the "service men's fund" raised by popular subscription at the time of the flood and which amounted to almost $5,000.
V-12 Welcome Given In Hoch Yesterday
"We shall do our best to make things pleasant for you during your stay on the campus," Chancellor than 400 V-12 men at a special welcoming convocation held yesterday Deane W. Malott promised more morning in Hoch auditorium. More than 1500 persons were present to hear the Chancellor and see and hear the commanding officers of the V-12 program here.
Lt. C. A. Mickelman, assistant commanding officer of the V-12 school, in an address which preceded the Chancellor's, stated that the major objective of the school "is to train the best possible Naval personnel." He added that he hoped there would be time for secondary objectives such as participation of V-12 men in extra-curricula activities.
Dean Nelson then introduced Lt. A. H. Buhl, commanding officer of all Navy duties on the Hill, who remarked that welcoming exercises similar to that one were probably being held at more than 400 colleges and universities throughout the country which have V-12 units. Lieutenant Buhl then introduced
After the summer session band opened the convocation by playing two numbers, J. H. Nelson, assistant dean of the Graduate School, introduced Prof. Joseph Wilkins, head of the Fine Arts voice department, who led the audience in singing the "Star Spangled Banner."

New Closing Hours Mark Big Change
By Paula Reeve
In recent years women have been permitted to stay out until 1:30 a.m. on the nights of one of the four class parties, but regular Friday-Saturday closing hours for the last 12 years have been at 12:30 a.m. And what was the curfew for the fairer sex previous to 12 years ago? Just for fun, let's delve into some of K.U.'s past—
Next Friday night will mark the first night in the history of our University that women may stay out until 1 a.m., without some sort of "special permission"—no ifs, ands, or conditions about it!
In 1913, closing hours were 10:30 o'clock every night, even on weekends, and it seems that there were even restrictions on dating. The following definition of a "tabooed date" appeared in the September 22 issue of the Kansan that year: "Tabooed dates are social engagements on the evenings of school days, except for Friday evenings or for evenings preceeding holidays. Exceptions include events of general University interest, theater engagements, com-

ISA Has Band For Saturday Dance In Union Lounge
An all-University dance featuring Herbie Price and his 11-piece band will be held in the Union Lounge Saturday, July 17, from 9 to 12 p.m., under sponsorship of the Independent Student Association. All ISA members will be admitted free. Non-members will be admitted for 50 cents, with or without dates.
This will be our biggest social event of the summer," stated Jack Doores, president of ISA.
This dance will be one of few dances of the summer with a band. The band is made up almost entirely of college musicians, and four K.U. students, Jack Hines, Jack Rardin, Jack Bouse, and Dale Andrews are members.
The date of the dance was changed from Friday to Saturday night in order that the boys in the Navy V-12 program may attend.
700 Soldiers Here August 9 To Begin Study
An army engineer from Omaha headquarters was expected to be in Lawrence today to check bids for equipment to convert Lindley hall, the unfinished mineral industries building, into a barracks and mess hall for 700 soldiers who will study at the University beginning August 9.
Raymond Nichols, University executive secretary, stated yesterday that bids were still being received for kitchen and mess hall equipment sanitary facilities, and beds. The army must approve the bids before contracts are let and priorities must be secured through army channels, Nichols said.
Army men will be in much the same relation to the University as navy V-12 men according to Nichols, although they will be enrolled in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences rather than the School of Engineering and Architecture. They will take a basic engineering program and their studies will include courses in mathematics, chemistry, physics, history, English, geography, and physical education.
The army, however, will not follow the regular University semester of 16 weeks. Their semester will be a quarter, changing enrollment every 12 weeks. Thus they will enroll with regular University students only once each year.
The soldiers will be regularly enrolled in the University and will be required to take the entrance psychological examinations as is required of civilian students. V-12 men also took the examinations.
Lindley hall, which will house the men, has more than 75.000 square feet of floor space and is considered adequate by army authorities for living quarters for the 700 men.
The Special Service Division of the Army provides recreation facilities for troops.
Move To Set Five Weeks' ClassSchedule
Chancellor Malott has appointed three faculty members to a committee to set the schedule of classes and courses for the five week session which follows this semester. in order to have the schedule in the hands of students before the end of the eight weeks summer session, if that is possible.
The committee, headed by Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, has sent letters to chairmen of all University departments asking them to formulate their programs before next Tuesday. J. H. Nelson, assistant dean of the Graduate School, and Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College, are the other members of the committee. 700 Soldiers Coming
The committee has advised that the coming of 700 army men to the University on August 9 will make the classroom situation critical, and that it will be necessary to schedule some classes at 7.30 and 12.30, and also to use the later afternoon hours. Up to now, only the School of Engineering has used the noon hour for classes.
Three Hour Periods
According to the committee, during the five week session, two-hour classes will meet six hours a week, one hour each day Monday through Saturday. Three-hour classes will meet 10 hours a week, two hours each day Monday through Friday.
Five-hour classes will meet 15 hours a week, for a two and one-half hour period Monday through Saturday, or for a three-hour period. Monday through Friday. There is a possibility that some five-hour courses will schedule part of the classwork in the morning and part in the afternoon.
Department heads were advised in the letters that the prospects for stu- (continued to page four)
Colored Quartet Here Next Week
The Southernaires, colored male quartet, will give a concert in Hoch auditorium Thursday evening of next week as one of the numbers on the summer session concert series.
"As their name implies, these colored singers are true sons of the South, singing the melodies of their native soil with an artistry that has seldom been equalled," stated D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, and in whose charge is the concert series.
With nearly two thousand songs in their repertoire, the programs of the Southernaires are full of variety, stated Dean Swarthout. Their music covers three centuries of Negro music, including African chants, spirituals, slave songs, and popular Negro songs of the present day. They are also able interpreters of

Jefferson's Words In Declaration of Independence Hold
"When, in the course of human events" . . .
It is because of "Life, Liberty, and Justice" that we are engaged in war today. The college-age youth of America are fighting side by side with older comrades in a zealous effort toward victory and the ultimate destruction of all the forces that impede a "government of the people, by the people and for the people."
One hundred sixty-seven years ago, colonists were oppressed by taxation and other abuses—some steps had to be taken to assure the American people of their freedom from tyranny.
"We hold that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" . . .
"And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor" . . .
Today, men all over the world are being subjected to the tyranny and despotism of a few selfish leaders who will stop at no means to gain their ends. But America and her Allies have recognized that democracy-loving people want to retain these "inalienable Rights" set forth in the Declaration of Independence.
For this reason we are totally united and determined to abolish the powers that are attempting to strangle us from within their bonds. Our resolution for "keeping America free" from the shackles of Hitlerism or totalitarian government is a grim one. We will stop at nothing, even to the extent of giving up our lives to preserve what our ancestors and perhaps our close relatives fought for in World War I—they call it the heritage of democracy.
Can See Moon This Evening From Observatory
The University Observatory will be open tonight from 9 to 11 o'clock for all persons who wish to look at the moon through the observatory's six-inch telescope. Prof. N. W. Storer announced yesterday.
Thus, "when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evidence a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security." . .
The looking, however, depends upon the weather, stated. Professor Storer. If the weather is clear, the invitation holds—if the sky is cloudy, the demonstration will be postponed until some other time.
Professor Storer cordially invited any person, whether connected with the University or not, to attend the demonstation.

Betty Bright, Corbin Hall, has taken a definite dislike to all form of birds. For as she was walking to the Rock Chalk the other night with John Sanks, Triangle, under some trees, her feathered friends played a dirty trick on her. She spent the next few minutes at Corbin—washing her hair. . Billy Lee, V-12 student from Washington U., goes around asking the Kansans if they have ever "smothered squirrels with the Indians." Which, when translated, simply means, a picnic with a blanket. Why. Billy!
Irwin Mintz claims that until the V-12 get their uniforms, the daily routine calls for washing out their clothes every night. "Each day we march at wider intervals," he reports
Bobbe Wedekind, aviation girl at Corbin, answered the phone on her floor last week. Since Bobbe doesn't know anyone on the Hill, she hadn't been getting many calls. When she answered the phone, the desk girl asked for "Bobbie Wedekind, long distance." "Just a minute," says Bobbe as she hangs up to get the girl. A few second later, Bobbe's back on the phone. "Hey, that's me!" she exclaims.
George Boughton, son of Dr. L. L. Boughton of the Pharmacy school is only 14, but earns enough to pay income tax. The rest of us would like to have the opportunity . . . Matt Weigand, Sigma Chi, appeared slightly puzzled as he approached Phyllis Wickert of Corbin last week. "You know," he said, "Our class has always met in the same room since the 16 weeks' session started, but there's not a soul up there today." "What time is your class to meet?" asked Phyllis. "At 2:30," he answered. Phyllis sighed and showed him her watch. It was only 1:30. "I thought that was a short noon hour," he sheepishly replied.
Elizabeth Craftton, Pi Phi, will undoubtedly make it a point to be home earlier after this. Jim Boyce, Sigma Chi stationed at Oberlin, Ohio, called her at 5:00 Friday, and she got in at 5:05. Now she hates to leave the house.

Lieut. Albert O. Kiesow, former K.U. student and now member of the chemical warfare service, is visiting his wife, Mrs. Kiesow, secretary at Watkins hospital. The lieutenant is stationed at Herbert Smart Airport, Macon, Georgia.
Education Forum In Union Tonight
The second of a series of educational forums will be conducted at 7 o'clock tonight in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building with physical fitness programs in schools the topic of discussion.
Strong Hinman, assistant superintendent of schools, Topeka, and Henry Shenk, assistant professor of physical education and varsity coach, will lead the discussion in which the audience will participate.
The committee in charge of the forum are William Fisher, Robert Loomis, and Floyd Sappington, all graduate students in the School of Education.
Dean J. W. Twente, School of Education, say that all students are invited to attend.
Koopman Working For Curtiss-Wright
Richard J. W. Koopman, former associate professor of electrical engineering started working last week in the airline division of the Curtiss-Wright corporation in Brooklyn, N. Y. He resigned his position in the School of Engineering and Architecture to become head of the electrical section in a new Curtiss-Wright research laboratory. Fifteen to twenty men are working under him in this section.
Before coming to the University in 1937, Mr. Koopman was instructor of electrical engineering at Yale university and also at the Michigan College of Mining and Technology. He became an associate professor here in 1940.
Closing Hours
(continued from page one) pany to and from practices or committee meetings, engagements with out-of-town guests (not considered guests if in Lawrence for more than three days), company to and from the library without stopping for refreshments, or for coating or sleighing." Turned Watches Back
In 1915 the May 26 issue of the Kansan contained the following: "The Women's Student Governing Association decided yesterday to ask the University to have a whistle blow at 10:30 o'clock each night so that there can be no difference of opinion between the landlady and the young man making the call at the woman's rooming house as to the time of night. Some of the landladies say that men turn back their watches in order to make the time appear earlier than it actually is."
Then in November of 1915 the women voted to extend the Friday and Saturday night closing hours to 11 p.m. since "it was almost impossible to get back home from the movies before 11 o'clock." However, at this same time the Sunday night closing hour was cut a half hour shorter to 10 o'clock "since there is no occasion to stay out so late on Sunday evenings."
Lasted 13 Years
There were then no changes in the closing hours for 13 years, when in 1928 the Friday and Saturday night hours were extended to 11:30 p.m.
In 1931 the 12:30 a.m. closing hours for Friday and Saturday were adopted with 10:30 hours on all other nights except Sunday, when the women still had to be in by 10 o'clock. In 1933, however, this was remedied, and Sunday night hours were again restored to 10:30.
Summer Session Changes
Then for 12 years women continued on this schedule during the regular semesters, with changes in the summer session closing hours to 11 p.m. on Sunday through Thursday and 12 m. on Friday and Saturday.
This gradual process of lengthening the closing hours shows how the women's student government has progressed over a period of years—and is still progressing.
Beginning tomorrow night, the following closing hours go into effect: Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, 10:30 p.m., Wednesday and Sunday, 11 p.m.; and Friday and Saturday, 1 a.m.

And for the rest of the summer, women will have these new privileges. As for whether or not the new closing hours will become a permanent thing on this campus depends upon their success this summer. The fate of one of the University's progressive steps lies in the hands of the present students—so it is up to us to prove the new hours successful and necessary on our campus.
"This is not a war of throwing a gun over your shoulder and seeing how far you can march or sail," emphasized Lieutenant Mickelman in outlining the necessity for training programs such as the V-12. The Lieutenant then asked for the help and co-operation of the University community in training V-12 men in leadership, personal qualities, and technical abilities.

The Chancellor acknowledged in his address that the navy college training program had probably interrupted the educational plans of many men in it, but he urged those men to make the most of their opportunities while at K.U. to fulfill two objectives—an immediate one for the navy and a long-range one for their futures after the war si over.
V-12 Welcome

Professor Leonard A. Axe, co-ordinator of V-12 and University affairs.
The Chancellor quoted a definition of the purpose of any university, which is "to train the human mind to seek out truth," and stated that he hoped V-12 men would be enabled to do that. Another University responsibility, he said, is to help its students to keep their ideals.
The convocation ended with the audience singing the "Alma Mater" and Ruth Krehbiel, cheerleader, leading in the Rock Chalk Yell for those present who had never heard what was voted at the Berlin Olympic games "the most typical college yell in the world."

Sport Chatter
By Bob Bock
Yesterday was the big day for Coach Shenk, for he gos his first impse of the clay with which he will mold the crimson and blue e-leven this fall. Previous to yesterday, he knew only about those navy trainees who had been on last year's freshman squad here, and also a few high school stars in this territory who are also in V-12, besides a few civilian boys. Except for Palmer; star freshman halfback at Iowa University last year, and a few other boys including a good guard from Wyoming, Coach Shenk had no idea of what the quality was of his out of state Navy boys. Only two lettermen—Junius Penny and Grant Hunter are back.
***
Down at O.U. when Coach Dewey "Snorter" Luster asked for all those who were interested in playing college football to step up at a mass meeting of the 494 cadets, 92 stepped forward. They were pretty light, and only 13 of them had ever played college or junior college football before. With this crew, and with one letterman, Boone Baker, a classy wingback, three freshmen and six lads fresh out of high school, Luster started the Sooner's summer practice sessions which began last Thursday.
\* \* \*
Here at the University Coach Shenk expects around 50 of the Navy boys—about that number signed up that they were interested—and a few others, probably around sixty in all, to report. Practices, which will be held on the field east of the stadium, will naturally be light for the first week, with lots of running, passing, and other drills to get the men rounded into shape for the more intense and heavy workouts which are to come later on. A complete list of the summer squad will be published on this page in Friday's Kansan.
***
Waiting a week until football gets well under way, Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen will then begin twice weekly basketball drills with the first practice scheduled for Tuesday evening, July 20, at 7:30 in Robinson gymnasium. From then on practices will be held twice weekly on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7:30 until 9:00. Since most of the players upon whom Dr. Allen is counting are young and have never played under him, Dr. Allen will begin with teaching offense, working with each player individually but stressing competition all the while. Both individual offensive and defensive drills will come before goal shooting and team offensive drills will be held. Like summer football, summer basketball practices are an innovation here.
Those players about whom Dr. Allen already knows are the men who showed up well in the Victory Intramural League just finished a few weeks ago. Those boys who starred in intramural ball and who are not in the naval program who are expected out are Moffett, Maury, Bob and Bill Mathews, Bock, pitchie, Corder, and several others, most all of whom are young. then there are many boys in V-12 who are expected to come out and they include Don Diehl, Kirk Scott, Edwin Pyle, and many others from all parts of the country. All boys—
Dean Says Browns To Win Flag
Ames, Iowa—If Dizzy Dean is as good a prophet in 1943 as he proved in 1942 then the St. Louis Browns will finally win an American League baseball pennant.
Last summer when intervieweed over Station WOI, the broadcasting service of Iowa State College, the former hurling star of the St. Louis Cardinals forecast the National League and World Series victories of his former mates—at a time when the Redbirds were some seven games out of first place. As every sport fan knows the Cards closed with a rush and then swamped the New York Yankees, four games to one.
Earlier this week in a telephone conversation with John O'Donnell, sports editor of the Davenport Democrat, Dean said the Browns would meet the Cardinals in the world series. He further added that the Browns had a good chance to beat the world champions.
It is of historical interest that the St. Louis team is the only club in the American league which has never won the loop pennant.
Graduate Working For Westinghouse
Victor Valle Schloesser of Frederonia, 43 graduate of the University, has joined the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing company at Pittsburgh, Pa., as a member of the company's graduate student course.
One of the more than 250 men selected from colleges and universities throughout the country, Schloesser is receiving engineering and classroom instruction designed to fit him for active participation in the company's war production program and for future leadership in the electrical industry, according to Westinghouse officials.
While in college he was president Tau Sigma fraternities and was also elected to Sigma Tau and the Pan-Hellenic council.
Schloesser was graduated from the University with a degree in of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Pi mechanical engineering.
He participated in track events and obtained two varsity track letters. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Victor V. Schloesser, 1003 Jefferson Street, Fredonia.
The following is taken from the sport column in the Lawrence Journal-World:
both civilian students and navy students—are urged by Dr. Allen to come out for summer basketball
"Dr. F. C. Allen, the illustrious crimson and blue basketball coach, apparently plans to retire when he reaches the age of 65 years, which will be in about 7 more years. 'Phog' recently bet two of his coworkers a box of cigars he would quit when he reaches the retirement age. He also adds that he will bet anyone else a suit of clothes he will retire at that time. When asked what he would do after he retired, he replied, 'I will have a good time enjoying life.'

60 Gridders Out At Iowa State
Michalske, who is spending about 10 days on the Iowa State campus, said he was well pleased with the progress of the squad under Louis Menze, assistant football coach who has been directing the summer drills. Michalske felt the men were in good condition and that they seemed to be mastering the offensive system he plans to use in the fall.
Ames, Iowa—Some 60 Iowa State football players worked out Thursday night under the critical eye of Head Coach Mike Michalske for the first time this summer and were given praise and advice by the Cyclone coach.
The Cyclone coach, who will be back on the campus again when drills begin in the fall, has been conducting his summer boys camp near Green Bay, Wis.
At present 60 men have signed for the first summer football practice ever held at Iowa State. The main emphasis so far has been on conditioning, passing, punting, and becoming familiar with the offensive patterns outlined by Michalske.
The present Cyclone schedule calls for Iowa State to travel to Lawrence, Oct. 9, for the opening contest with the University of Kansas. Five other games, four with other Big Six schools, are on the schedule.
The Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago, graduated 72 synthetic rubber chemists recently, said to be among the first of this fast-growing profession.
Choir Places Open For Tenors, Basses
The Summer Session A Cappella Choir will open its enrollment this afternoon (Tuesday) at 4:30 to a few more tenors and basses, if there are those who wish a place in the choir for the final four weeks of work, Dean D. M. Swarthout announced today.
The choir will prepare a number of songs for its next appearance at the final All-Musical Vespers on Sunday evening, August 1, and will meet regularly each Tuesday and Thursday afternoon in Room 131 in Frank Strong hall.
Those interested should get in touch with Dean Swarthout as early as possible, he stated.
ISA Hour Dance Tomorrow Evening
An hour dance sponsored by the dances will be held on nights Lounge tomorrow evening, July 14, from 7:30 to 8:30 o'clock. Dick Todd and his records will furnish the music. There will be no admission charges for members of the ISA. A charge of 10 cents will be made for single admission of a non-member. If two non-members come together, the charge will be 15 cents.

Military Use Pool In Robinson Gym
Swimming is such an essential part of the military training programs on the campus that there appears to be little or no time for student recreational use of the Robinson gym pool, according to Dr. F. C. Allen.
"I recommend that students who wish to swim use one of the local lakes or pools. However," he continued, "if it is at all possible, we will try to schedule a specific time when they may use the University pool."
"At the present time, the Navy V-12 and machinist's mates have practically the full use of the pool," stated Dr. Allen, "but when the Army comes August 1 an adjustment will have to be made."

The fourth number in the program was the opening movement of the Schumann Quintet, one of the best-known numbers in instrumental ensemble literature. The work was given a carefully prepared and intelligent reading by Jan Chiapusso, pianist, Waldemar Geltch, violinist, Barbara Huls, viola, and D. M. Swarthout, cellist.
The Summer Session A Cappella Choir of seventy voices, directed by Dean Swarthout, closed the program with four varied choral numbers—"O Vos Omnes" from Vittoria, "As Torrents in Summer" by Elgar, "America, My Own" by Noble Cain, and a lively spiritual "Climbin' Up De Mountain" arranged by Noble Cain. Although the choir has been in training but a little over three weeks, they sang with a remarkably fine precision in attack, regard for phrases, and adherence to pitch.
Universally appealing was the performance of the pretentious "Domine Jesu" from the Verdi "Requiem," splendidly sung by a vocal quartet consisting of Meribah Moore, soprano, Irene Peabody, contralto, Joseph Wilkins, tenor, and David Lawson, baritone, with the accompaniment played by Lila LeVan Loadwick at the piano and Laurel Everett Anderson at the organ.
The second and last of the All-Musical Vespers has been scheduled for Sunday evening, August 1.

The re-enrollment session under the direction of Professor Brown and Mr. Ertl and with the cooperation of the engineer enrollees was smoothly conducted. Late Saturday afternoon the last engineer was re-enrolled. Classes met yesterday and are now well under way.
After dragging through the registration line, enrollment line, and low re-enrollment, the engineers eel quite experienced. One V-12 remarked he "could do the whole process in a black-out."

dents in the fall seem as follows:
A good enrollment of women,
though not as many as last fall, and
a good enrollment of freshman men
and some sophomore men, but practically no civilian men over 18 years of age except those deferred for studies considered essential, and those deferred because of physical unfitness.
The committee suggested that departments should offer a number of courses for freshmen and sophomores, since the majority of next year's freshmen are expected to enter the University at the beginning of the five week session, when rushing, pledging, and orientation activities will take place.
Stress for Underclassmen
The five week session was adopted at a meeting of the University Senate last week. It was set in order to put the College and other schools of the University on the same time basis as the School of Engineering and Architecture, which last week began a 16 week semester. The regular fall semester of 16 weeks will then begin November 1, immediately after the five week session, with little or no lapse in school.

The basic engineering I curriculum (BE-1) to be given here is the first part of the Army Specialized Training Program, stated Raymond Nichols. University executive secretary. After the three 12-week quarters at the University of Kansas, the soldiers will be sent to an institution offering advanced army engineering training. The University of Missouri offers this type of program.
The A-12 tests given in high schools this spring were used to select the men for this program; however some will come from other training programs. It is expected

(continued to page four)
Varied is the word to best describe the navy officers stationed recently on the Hill to direct the V-12 program. Differing in backgrounds and interests, they are now busy adjusting themselves to Kansas, particularly the weather.
Lt. Mickelman was born and reared in central Illinois. He obtained his B.A. degree from Illinois Wesleyan, his M.A. degree from the University of Illinois, and a Ph.D. from Northwestern. His only previous knowledge of Kansas came from seeing western Kansas during the drought of '36. He thinks what he is seeing now is quite an improvement and that the campus here is very beautiful. If he should ever have some spare time, Lt. Mickleman would like to spend it playing golf and bridge.
Lt. Mickleman, assistant commanding officer of the V-12 program, was formerly in business and industrial personnel work in Illinois and Michigan. His position immediately before joining the navy was state superintendent of student personnel work in Illinois.
Australia To Be Subject of Talk In Fraser
"Australia Now," a combined motion picture and lecture program, will be given in Fraser theater at 8 o'clock Tuesday evening by Mrs. Aloha Baker, according to a statement by Raymond Nichols, University executive secretary, yesterday afternoon.
In the lecture and picture, Mrs Baker strives to present a comprehensive picture of the nation "down under." It is a composite picture that continent, its people, its agriculture, and its war effort. It has been produced with an idea of giving Americans a background for better understanding of news from that area.
An American, Mrs. Baker has traveled and lived in 85 countries, and speaks six languages.
In the lecture, Australia is presented, not as a great and barren desert, but as the greatest industrial nation south of the equator. Australia is the world's fourth largest wheat producing country, has rich hardwood forests, many gold mines, valuable dairy and cattle industries, and also contains many interesting and picturesque animals, some of which are shown in the motion picture which accompanies the lecture
Shown also will be Australia's infant aircraft industry, her women in the war, the country's heavy industries producing munitions of war, and Australia's army, which has fought on nearly every front from Java and Singapore and Malaya to Crete and Greece and North Africa.

Lindley Hall To Serve NewPurpose
By Paula Reeve
Lindley hall, the new mineral industries building at the southwest end of the campus, was originally intended to provide research laboratories and classrooms for engineering students, but for the duration at least, it will be deserving a more vital purpose—that of housing the army engineers who are to come to the University in August
Since Oct. 12, 1940, when Oscar S. Stauffer, president of the Alumni association, suggested the need for a mineral industries building on the campus, the campaigning for and actual construction of the building has been a slow but gradual process.
At that time, the value of minerals produced annually in Kansas exceeded $150,000,000, and there were two important reasons for the construction of such a building; first, the need to centralize the University services adapted to the industrial development of the state and second, the necessity of pro (continued to page four)
WEC Sets Final Week Closing Hours
Closing hours for all women students during final week will be 11 o'clock on evenings preceding final examinations, according to a decision made by the women's executive committee of the All-Student Council at a meeting Monday at 7 p.m. in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building.
Doris Bixby, secretary of the AS-CWEC, gave a report of the house rules committee which were sent out to housemothers and town girls regarding the new University closing hours.
"Women in the 16 week semester must also observe these 11 o'clock closing hours during the days of the 8 week session finals." Doris Larson, president of the ASCWEC, started. "This move is necessary to avoid confusion and to have a uniform closing hour for all women students."
The rest of the meeting was devoted to making out the new house rules, which will be formally passed on at the next meeting of the women's executive committee.
Quartet To Be Here For Concert Thursday
The sale of seats for the South- lairnaires, famous radio negro male quartet, continues in a gratifying manner, Dean D. M. Swarthout said yesterday.
The organization is being brought to the campus under the auspices of the University concert series on next Thursday, July 22, as the third and final attraction of the series of three imported events.
The Southernaires are heard by many thousands each Sunday morning in a national coast to coast "hook-up" that has continued for several years and has proved itself to be one of the most popular programs on the air. In this territory, they are heard over Station WREN each Sunday morning at 9:30 in a program of hymns and Negro spirituals. Included on their program here will be a number of the best known spirituals such as "Do You Call That Religion," "Sunday Morning Band," "Were You There," and "Simmer Please Don't Let This Harvest Pass." or the closing number the Southernaires will present a scene from the "Weatherbaten Whitewashed Church," one of the most popular features on their radio program

Lippmann Urges British,American Russian Alliance
In his latest book, "U. S. Foreign Policy," which was the July Book-of-the-Month Club choice, Walter Lippman urges the formation of a Post-war "nuclear alliance" among the United States, Britain, and Russia.
Maintenance of the world order in which America lives depends upon existence of such an alliance.
Lippmann contends that the United States had had no foreign policy since the Spanish-American war, when we acquired an imperialistic attitude and committed ourselves to the protection of the vast Pacific. Such a commitment was made without adequate power to carry it out, with the result apparent in the present situation in that ocean.
The thesis of the book is that the United States must not make commitments which it is unable to carry out at any time. The United States is not strong enough to maintain promises, in central or even western Europe without aid from other countries nor is she strong enough to maintain promises in Asia. Natural allies of this nation are Britain, in western Europe and on the world's seas, and Russia, in central Europe and Asia, according to Mr. Lippmann.
"In foreign relations, as in all other relations, a policy has been formed only when commitments and powers have been brought into balance. This is the forgotten principle which must be recovered and restored to the first place in American thought if the nation is to achieve the foreign policy which it so desperately wants.
"Without the controlling principle that the nation must maintain its objectives and its power in equilibrium, its purposes with its means and its means equal to its purposes, its commitments related to its resources and its resources adequate to its commitments, it is impossible to think about foreign affairs.
Because of geographical positions, with potential powerful enemies between Britain and Russia and between Russia and the United States, the signatory powers of the triple alliance would be loath to disrupt the pact, believes Mr. Lippmann.
He advances the idea that should any one of the three great powers reach out for territory or power, another member or members of the alliance would restore the power of intermediate countries and would try to erect a balance of power against the aggressor. "The postwar era would thus be transformed . . . into a pre-war era." Lippmann realistically acknowledges. But he points out that the signatory powers would recognize the possibility of disrupting the alliance and would be careful not to disturb its organization by such aggrandizement.
Chiefly for the foregoing reason, he writes, the alliance could not hold together if it did not "operate within the limitations of an international order that preserves the national liberties of other peoples." The chief powers would not remain

The girls on the campus now wish heartily that the V-12 boys would find out for sure when they are to get out. It's becoming confusing to change dates so rapidly from Thursday to Wednesday night. . . Jean Cody and Mary Margaret Reynolds, Chi O's, were writing long notes in a psychology class this week. Fletcher McCord, teacher, in desperation, picked up a KANSAN, and began folding it and tearing it. At the end of the class period, McCord walked over to the girls "Here, you two," he said and handed them some paper. When they unfolded it, there was a beautiful string of paper dolls.

However, we fail to see how all peoples of the world are to have democratic government and live peacefully merely by the world's three most powerful nations leaving them to themselves. It is a point not discussed in Mr. Lippmann's book and is one of the points in favor of a strong world governmental organization.
Miss Pauline Jacobson of Oskaloosa spent the first of the week with Miss Mary Beth Shultz, sophomore, at Westminster hall.
The action of the All-Student Council in setting up a permanent archive for all University documents and reports brings to mind a little room on the main floor of Watson library. The room is always kept locked.
'Vault' Holds Rare Books, Documents
Inside that room are kept rare books—those that bring high prices on the market. But most of the material in that room could not be replaced for any amount if it were mislaid. If you use a book from this room, you are requested to place your name, address, and telephone number on the card, and under no circumstances can you take the book out of the building.
Miss Edith Stodard of Burlingame came Monday to visit until Friday with her sister, Miss Jean Stodard, at Watkins hall.
Material kept in the "vault," as librarians call the room, consists of a few rare editions of Shakespeare and other well-known authors; clippings concerning former great personalities and officials on the Hill; complete histories of the University; documents dealing with early events on the Hill, and many volumes dealing with legislative procedure of the state of Kansas. Besides that, there are the early copies of all Hill publications—the Kwir book, the Quivera, and all the other early University annuals. Complete files of the University Daily Kansan, the Graduate Magazine, Jayhawker, and Sour Owl are kept.
Almost every book written by a Kansas, or about a Kansas, is kept locked in the room. Copies of the theses of all candidates for doctors' degrees, works of Kate Stephens, the life of Buffalo Bill Cody, numerous tales about John Brown, and books on the histories of various counties and communities of Kansas are filed for reference.
Scrapbooks concerning University alumni, athletes, faculty members, and students are kept up to date and added to the hundreds of Kansas books already assembled.
There are volumes of material on Quantrill's raid, early history of Kansas, and even a volume of clip-rings concerning the dust storms of the western part of the state. One large book is filled with the feats of the "Kansas Flyer," Glenn Cunningham.
Thanks to the policy of the library staff, these interesting books and pamphlets are assembled and protected, so that some day, if someone wants to write a complete history of Kansas, or of the University, all of the material he will need will be preserved in one place.

Wow,—we take it all back. That famous Kansas heat arrived recently, and it is all that anyone ever talked about.
The local softball league started with a bang last Tuesday night, with Colonel Washington on the mound. Lt. Buhl behind the plate, and Dr. "Phog" Allen calling the balls and strikes. The Navy's Ship's Company team bowed to the Haskell Indians 8 to 9 in the first game of the evening, while the Machinist's Mates took the measure of the Air Cadets 13 to 2. The Machinists Mates returned to the ball diamond warfare again Wednesday night and turned back the strong K.U. boys aggregation by a score of 4 to 0. The Machinists Mates' showing in their first two games makes them one of the favorites to win the title this year.
'Strictly Scuttlebutt'
Swimming has started on the campus for those men being trained by the Navy. To date the percentage of non-qualified swimmers has been below average, according to Lt. (jg) Weeks, the physical training officer. It seems as though the middle west has swimmers even though they don't have a lot of water.

The Machinists Mates Training School was honored with the visit Thursday of Rear Admiral E. G. Morrell, District Supply Officer of the Ninth Naval District. Accompanying Admiral Morrell were Lt. A. Von Gontard, Lt. D. W. Davis, and Lt. (jg) R. G. Cook.
More than 2,500,000 dog licenses were issued in Britain during the year ended March 31, 1942.
To Have Directory Published Soon
The Summer Session Directory will be out soon, according to Dan Ragle, editor of the directory. The cover has been completed, and the names of the regular summer session students have been assembled. They are waiting to complete the directory with the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of the Navy V-12 engineers.
"If anyone has changed residence since he registered for the Summer Session Directory, we would like to have him report to the registrar's office." Ragle requested. "In that way, we can avoid any unnecessary mistakes."
A list of all available rooms for women for the fall semester will be published by August 1, according to Miss Marie Miller, assistant to the adviser of women.

Sport Chatter
By Bob Bock
Although it is impossible, naturally, to get a very good line on any of the players until actual scrimages get under way, still those men with good records who have looked good in practice so far might be mentioned. There is Penny et center, of course, and then another crack center, Dan Chase, is also out. Chase starred on Parsons High teams all of his four years of high school. Royce Pence from the Manhattan High eleven also has possibilities.
There are a lot of backs, several of whom are plenty good boys. They include Lloyd Palmer, who was a fine halfback on the freshman squad at the University of Iowa last year; Joe Gray and Dale Bush, Pittsburg boys who were on the fresh squad here last year; Don Barrington, who has not been out as yet, but who played a mighty good halfback at Kansas City J. C.; Joe Dickey, crack half from Southwest High, Kansas City; Charley Moffett, a slick running, pass slinging tailback from Peabody High school; John Bergin, halfback from Washington State College; and a few others.
Warren Riegel, who has played freshman ball here, and Don Fleming, who has also gone out before here, are good ends.
At the tackles we have Hunter, Jack Bouse, huge tackle who played at Argentine High, K.C.J.C., and rosh ball here last year; Jim Shonell, who starred at Ward High and was picked on Gene Kemper's all tate squad; and two other big boys - Fred Vincent and Wally Grimes. Frank Gruden, a guard from the University of Wyoming, looks mighty rugged. Charley Keller a 40-pounder from Southwest high and member of last year's freshman squad here, also looks like he could take care of himself.
"All that can be added is that time will tell."

Coach Shenk is a firm believer in teaching by actual demonstration for when telling a boy how to block, he doesn't just tell him he gets in there and throws we block himself or whatever the use may be. Incidentally, Coach henk is around most of the afternoon on practice days, and works with a group of younger boys—and vone else who cares to come out only for that matter—who have DTC at the regular practice time 4:30, working with these boys ringing the 3:30 hour.

Olathe Base Gave Navy 'Happy Hour'
The "Flying Jayhawk Review," a program by the Olathe Naval Training Station, was presented for the Navy Machinists Mates and the Navy V-12 members last night in Hoch Auditorium. The review is considered to be one of the finest military presentations in the country, stated Chief Starkey of the local Naval Training Station.
The entire cast of 45 members was guest of honor at a dinner given for them at the Hearth by the Navy after the show.
Porto Rican Visits Brother On Campus
Carmenlita Mora, Porto Rico, is a guest this week at the Harmon Co-op. She is visiting her brother, William Mora, of the John Moore Co-op.
Miss Mora is a graduate of Oklahoma Women's College where she received her A.B. degree this spring. She has been living in the United States for the past three and one-half years.
Miss Mora will remain here until Tuesday when she will leave for Chicago to visit friends. She will then go to New York where she will become a translator in the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
you don't think that's a job, just try it yourself. Dean had to clean up the dressing room which was in quite a mess, find and arrange the equipment, and in general get things straightened up. Dean isn't content with just taking care of physical education classes on the side, but is also out there helping Coach Shenk with football practices.
In giving the ball carriers practice in ball carrying, Coach Shenk has been using the Warner single-wing back formation, moving into it off a shift. Shenk is definitely going to use a system different from that employed by Gwinn Henry, who used a spinner-wing, a variation of the "T."

52 Men Out For Summer Grid Practice
With a group of 52 men, of whom 37 are V-12 Navy men and 15 are civilian students, Coach Henry Shenk began his first football season here on Mt. Oread this week as he inaugurated summer football practices for the first time in the University history. These workouts, which are held from 4:30 until 6 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, will be continued for the next four or five weeks.
Coach Shenk is being assisted in the drills by Trainer Dean Nesmith, who a few years ago played tackle here under Ad Lindsey.
Of this group only Junius Penny, star center from Lawrence, and Grant Hunter, capable tackle from Jeanette, Pa., are returning lettermen. Penny is a junior engineer and is therefore deferred with a 2-A classification, while Hunter is one of the 37 V-12 men who have reported for the grid sport. A few more of the V-12 fellows may come out later after they get everything lined out, it is expected.
The players are wearing gym suits - this week, partly since the
first week will be spent in getting ready for the more intensive workouts that are to come, but mainly because of the hot weather. However, Coach Shenk said that he and Dean Nesmith will get the football uniforms ready to be checked out by Monday, and they will probably be issued to the men on the first cool day that comes along.
Most of the work this summer will be spent on fundamentals—the stance, rudiments of blocking, practice in pulling out of the line, tackling, passing, and punting.
A ruling that V-12 freshmen will not be eligible to participate in intercollegiate athletics until the end of their first semester, which will end on November 1, will keep a few more good men out of five of the seven games that are already scheduled. The only games in which they will be able to participate will be the Oklahoma encounter there on November 6 and the Missouri game here on Thanksgiving Day. Perhaps another November game will be scheduled—maybe with Washburn who also has a V-12 program—on November 13 or 20, both Saturdays being open dates at present, according to athletic officials.
A few Naval flight cadets have been working out, but they will be of no help since they will be leaving in a few weeks. However, the next contingent of Naval flyers will definitely be in the picture, and it is hoped that a few good men will be found in this group.

Now Miller hall has the flowers and they still had their party because at the last minute permission was given to the men, and PT-8 was entertained at an hour dance Wednesday night.

(continued from page one) viding adequate quarters for the engineering departments, both for instruction and research.
It wasn't until April 6, 1941, that the legislature approved the building program budget and appropriated $408,500 for the construction of the mineral industries building. Then, in November of 1941, the construction was assured by the granting of a priority rating by the United States government.
Actual work on the building began Dec. 12, 1941, and if it had not been for the difficulties in obtaining electrical wiring and lighting fixtures through priority regulations Lindley hall would have been completed on schedule by the first of January, 1943.
The building was completed in February, except for the electrical fixtures, and the contractors handed the keys over to the University at that time.
Lindley hall is a three-story structure with a center wing that is four stories high, and has a basement floor. The penthouse intended for the astronomy observatory has not been added as yet.
Unusual additions to the structure include a service tunnel to carry the heating, electricity, and water pipes to the building and a loading platform at one of the back entrances.
The halls of the building are well

On the plaque by the front entrance are printed the following words: "Lindley Hall, Named in honor of Ernest Hiram Lindley, Chancellor of the University, 1920-1939. Erected 1942."
The mineral industries building was originally designed to accommodate the geological survey, comparative projects with the United States geological survey, the astronomy observatory, geology and geography departments of the University, and the department of chemical engineering, mining and metallurgical engineering, and petroleum engineering. However, these plans have been discontinued until after the war.

ing to Mr. Nichols the University has had no information concerning the section of the country from which they will come.
Only one course in this basic training will be given by the School of Engineering and Architecture. All courses, with the exception of engineering drawing to be given in the third quarter, are in the College. This basic engineering program is similar to the one offered to regular students in many respects, but it is more streamlined, Mr. Nichols said. Three mathematics courses will be given in the 36 weeks of study.
Harold G. Ingham, director of the extension division, Henry Werner, adviser of men, and C. G. Bayles, superintendent of Buildings and Grounds, are in charge of equipping Lindley hall as a barracks and mess hall for the 700 soldiers. The army refers to this advance preparation as "activation." The navy calls it "commissioning."

Priorities Delay Conversion Of Lindley Hall
Activation for the Army Specialized Training Program is progressing as rapidly as possible in the face of priorityifficulties, according to Raymond Nichols, University executive secretary. The University has not yet received the proper priority to purchase some of the materials needed to equip Lindley hall for housing and messing 700 soldiers expected to arrive here August 9.
The Seventh Service Command Headquarters at Omaha, Nebr., verbally granted the University an AAA-3 priority rating several weeks ago. A written statement of this rating has not been received. The AA-3 rating which the University now holds is not high enough to provide for immediate delivery of materials. Materials purchased on this priority would not be delivered in less than five weeks.
The committee in charge of activation at the University is working with the Omaha office in appealing to the War Department for the AAA- rating. Action on this matter is expected within the next few days, according to Harold G. Ingham, member of the committee.
Some of the equipment for the kitchen, cafeteria, and dormitory has been negotiated for, and contracts for the other materials will be let immediately upon receipt of the proper priority rating, Mr. Ingham said.
Military Building To Be Finished By November 1
The Military Science building is expected to be completed by Nov. 1 and there is a possibility it may be completed and turned over to the military department in October, according to a statement of Col. William C. Washington, professor of military science and tactics.
Originally, the building was planned to cost $125,000 and was started March 13, 1941, as a W.P.A. project. In September, 1942, work on the structure was postponed indefinitely due to 82 workmen leaving to work on the Sunflower Ordnance Works at DeSoto. Work was halted again in January of this year when all W.P.A. projects were discontinued. However, in April work was resumed and progress has been steady since then.
The outside dimensions of the main part of the building are 97 feet by 109 feet. Limestone from old Snow hall is used as facing on the main building and is backed by a wall of native stone.
Features of the building are the machine gun range and the 72 feet

Freshmen Elected In Cabinet Merger
Freshman and senior YMCA cabinets were officially merged last Thursday at a regular cabinet meeting, Harry W. O'Kane, YMCA secretary announced. The following freshmen succeeded in office upper-classmen now in service: Dave Rau, recording secretary; Wendell Nickel, now in charge of religious work; and Jack Button, in charge of work with men in the armed forces.
These freshmen were elected to the former freshman commission, but due to the merging, they have been put into the senior cabinet. Mr. O'Kane said they planned to have one public meeting each month with a speaker on Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. They chose this hour so that all Navy V-12 and other men in service on the campus would be able to attend.
The first meeting is tentatively set for Sunday, July 25.
J. O. Jones Made Acting Dean
J. O. Jones, professor of applied mechanics, was named last week as acting dean of the School of Engineering and Architecture to succeed J. J. Jakosky, who resigned last month. Chancellor Deane W. Malott made the announcement of Jones' appointment. No one has yet been selected as the permanent dean.
He received his bachelor of science degree in civil engineering at the University in 1912 and acquired his master of civil engineering degree at Cornell University in 1915. In addition to his positions on the staff here, he was associate professor of hydraulics at the University of Minnesota from 1922 to 1925 and professor of hydraulics there from 1926 to 1928, when he returned to K.U.
The new dean is widely known in engineering circles, is the author of a textbook in hydraulics, and is a member of Sigma Xi, honorary science fraternity, Tau Beta Pi, honorary mechanical engineering fraternity, and the American Society of Civil Engineers.
Jones and his wife reside at 1642 Louisiana.
The "Flying Jayhawk Review," stage production presented by the Olathe Naval Training Station in Hoch auditorium last Thursday night, was enthusiastically received by the personnel of the local Naval Training Station and the V-12 program.
'Happy Hour' Given Good Reception
The two-hour presentation was a musical variety show in which members of the cast presented imitations, songs by a chorus of eighteen voices, dances, pantomimes, short sketches
"It was an exceptionally good show. The men thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it," said Chief Petty Officer George O. Starkey, who has charge of the Happy Hours.
(continued to page four)
Negro Quartet Here Thursday
Featuring songs from their repertoire of more than 2,000 numbers, the Southernaires, famous Negro male quartet, will present a concert in Hoch auditorium Thursday evening at 8:20 o'clock. The concert is under the direction of D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts.
African chants, spirituals, slave songs, and Negro popular songs will be included on the program Thursday evening.
The Southernaires have been designated "Minute Men for Defense" by the Defense Savings Staff of the Treasury department, and as such are conducting a special campaign for the sale of War Savings Stamps and Bonds in conjunction with their appearance.
Student activity tickets will admit to the concert. For other persons the admittance price is $1 for seats on the floor, 75 cents in the first balcony, and 50 cents in the second balcony. Tickets may be purchased at Bell Music company, Round Corner drug store, and the Fine Arts office on the first floor of Frank Strong hall.

$ ^{4} $V-12 Highlights By Don Vic Grief, PT-4
Some of the students around the campus have been asking the V boys what the letters PT signified and why all the former fraternites taken over by the Navy were called PT. One witty co-ed suggested that PT stood for parole trainees, which of course is not true.
The PT actually stands for patrol torpedo boat, and each PT is a member of the KU. V-12 fleet. Since the V-12's, at least the majority of them, will not serve with the actual fleet for some time, the officers in charge are trying to acquaint the men with Navy organization, nomenclature, and military courtesy, so that they will be real Navy men when they are through their courses.
"The ration board in Ellensburg, Washington, is either psychic or has a nasty sense of humor," said Joe Johnson of PT-4. when he received an official letter a day ago. He has been trying for a long time to get new tires for his car, and when he was called to active duty, he gave up the struggle. The official envelope contained a permit to buy four new grade A tires, but V-12's can't use cars.
Some people about KU have wondered about the relationship between the V-12's and Machinists Mates. Although a lot of friendly razzing passes between the two groups, they are like the old Viginian, they "smile when they say it." An illustration of the spirit between them helps to dispel any doubts about the situation.
A V-12, Jack Zaring, PT-6, has been in the sick bay for almost a week, and during this time, Mach- (continued to page three)
Freshmen and sophomores in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences are expected to see their advisers before Thursday to obtain reports of their progress. The adviser for each underclassman is posted opposite the student's name, with the adviser's office hours.

Simpson Is Author Of Music Article
G. Criss Simpson, professor of theory and organ in the School of Fine Arts, is the author of an article which appears in this month's issue of "Musical America" concerning the University Music Week festival of last spring.
Many letters have been received from music administrators and educators over the country about the festival, according to Dr. W. Otto Miessner and Dean D. M. Swarthout. The letters expressed interest in, and congratulations on the success of, the festival.
Among noted music personages on the campus during Music Week were Ferde Grofe, composer, Albert Spalding, violinist, Peter de Rose, composer, Domenico Savino, composer and music editor, Dudley Crafts Watson, of the Chicago Art Institute, and Jack Robbins, music publisher.
Kellogg Loan Is $4,000
A scholarship and loan fund for students in medical technology at the University of Kansas has been made possible by a bequest of $4,000 from the Kellogg Foundation, according to an announcement made by Chancellor Deane W. Malott.
The committee appointed to administer the fund consists of Dr. N. P. Sherwood, Dr. Cora M. Downs, and Dr. C. F. Nelson, all of the University staff, and Dr. C. J. Weber of the University of Kansas hospitals in Kansas City.
"Medical technology is one of the most opportune fields for young women at the present time," stated Dr. Sherwood, head of the bacteriology department.
He said that for the past two years the demand for technicians has far exceeded the supply and that he receives requests from clinics and hospitals all over the country for medical technologists.
The University is expecting an increased feminine enrollment this fall, and particularly in the divisions of bacteriology and nurses training.
Dr. Sherwood said that the Kellogg bequest presents an excellent opportunity to University women who wish to complete their training in the medical technology field.
Art Bowsher, former K.U. student, is now taking training in the Officers Specialist School in the Engineer Officers Replacement Pool at Camp Clalborne, La.
Australia To Be Lecture Subject Of Author
Pictures of Australia fighting for its existence as a nation, and a lecture entitled "Australia Now" will be given by Mrs. Aloha Baker, lecturer-Author, in Fraser theater tonight at 8 o'clock.
Uncensored films of war productions and defense. Australia's famous fighting men in action, Australia's women in uniform, and pictures of its people, the country, its agriculture and industries will be shown by Mrs. Baker.
Mrs. Baker is an American whose education was completed at finishing schools in Belgium, France and Italy. She has lived in 85 foreign countries and speaks six languages. Since Pearl Harbor, Mrs. Baker has devoted her talents to portraying our allies and familiarizing us with their war effort. Some recent lecture engagements included the National Geographic Society, Town Hall, Columbia University, Michigan State College, and Washington University Association.
Housing contracts for the women's dormitories for the fall term are now being let. These contracts are all made to start September 23, the day the 5-week session begins the new school year. No contracts for Corbin, Watkins, or Miller Hall will start in November when the 16-week term begins. Carruth and Battenfeld Hall will also open September 23.
Student activity tickets will be used for admission as this is a part of the regular Lecture Series included in the tickets. Admission will be 40 cents to persons who do not have activity tickets.
Capt. Carl H. Helman, Jr., has been made base ordance officer at Billy Mitchell Field, army air base near Milwaukee. Captain Helman is married and has two children. He graduated from the University in 1937.
Most Houses Will Open On Sept. 23
With few exceptions, the rooming house landladies are asking for students who will be here for the 5-week session, Miss Marie Miller, assistant advisor of women, said. A few houses that have been open this summer are taking a vacation during the short session. The sorority houses will all open September 23 when rush week begins.
It appears that any student who doesn't attend the 5-week term will either have to contract for a room now and pay for it during the session or else wait and take his chances on getting a room in November, say University housing officials.

John Michel and John Sanks have formed a club currently called "As soon as we croon the ladies swoon" or some similar title. The two main lady swooners up to date are "Elmer" Omohundro and Claudine Scott. All lady applicants can apply to Sanks . . . Old friends of Dell Love are welcoming him home again. They are all very proud of him. For information as to his whereabouts, ask Ruth Krehbiel, Corbin hall. . . . Joe Nelson, Sigma Chi, is building without plans, without model and we imagine, without lumber, a sailboat. He claims he will give any girl the first ride in his boat who will make a sail for him. (He also asks that they be able to swim.)
The V-12 boys are still without uniform and the days are getting hotter. Something will have to be done! . . Chief Petty Officer Brummer is one of the most friendly officers on the campus. Now we wonder if he's married!
Walt Loudon, Delt, is now at loose ends. His girl is gone for a two weeks vacation. Now is the time. . I still wish someone would submit a name for this column.
Bill Krietz, now stationed in California in the Navy, writes this back in speaking of good-byes and farewells. "It was on Feb. 6 at Pearl Harbor. We consisted of a task force of 12 ships. All was hustle and bustle until the horns of the ships announced time to shove off. All the men went to their special detail and the remainder of the crew lined up facing the docks in regimental fashion; each taking his last look at civilization for no one knew how long—then in the rustling of chains and clanking of wenches, broke in a 60-piece Navy band. As the haw-sers were dropping from the dock they played the Star Spangled Banner, and as the engines of the 12 ships turned over, the men with tears rolling down their cheeks and little things running up and down their spines listened to the lovely strains of 'Aloha.' Can you picture hundreds of men weeping quietly one moment and in the next few moments after the echoes of the music had died away—each man individually knew what he was fighting for and each man personally felt as though he could lick the entire Jap Navy singlehanded. It is a moment never - to - be - forgotten and never will."
C. H. Weiss, missionary from South America, will show colored slides on South America in Myer's hall this evening at 7 o'clock. His visit to the campus is sponsored by the Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship group.

Calendars Of Fall Term Out Soon
1 The University calendar of registration, enrollment, and class work for next fall and winter has been sent to the printers and copies will be available to students at some time in the near future, according to Raymond Nichols, executive secretary of the University, yesterday.
The calendar was established at a meeting of the University Senate several weeks ago, when it was decided to set back the regular winter semester until Nov. 1, in order that all schools of the University would be running concurrently.
A 12 day, perhaps 13 day for some students. Christmas vacation is scheduled on the new calendar. Finals for the winter term will take four days and will be ended on March 1. The Spring semester will start on March 8, and will end on June 27.
The fall term, or "5-week" session, will begin on Sept. 28, with freshman orientation week preceding that date. Finals for the fall term will be given on Oct. 29, with freshman and new student psychological and aptitude examinations following on the next day, which is Saturday. Registration and enrollment begin the following Monday, with as little loss of time as possible.
A letter schedule for registration in the five weeks session has already (continued to page four)

Southernaires Sang In Hoch Last Evening
A program featuring Negro spiritfuls, hymns, slave songs, and light classics presented last evening in Hoeh auditorium by the Southernaires, well-known Negro male quartet, was enthusiastically acclaimed by the largest audience to attend a
concert in the summer session.
The quartet is composed of William Edmonson, bass; Ray Yeates, tenor; Jay Stone Toney, baritone; and Lowell Peters, tenor. The accompanist and arranger for the four-some is Spencer Odom.
As their name implies, the Southernaires are true sons of the South, singing melodies of their native soil in the traditional manner with an artistry that has seldom been equaled. The fine accompaniment of their pianist, Mr. Odom, created an excellent background for their perfect harmony.
The quartet, melodiously blending their voices as one, captured the attention of their listeners from the first with excerpts from "Hiwatha's Wedding Feast" by Coleridge-Taylor. This was immediately followed by "Lift Thine Eyes" by Logan.
Their second group of selections was one composed of traditional (continued to page tour)
Topeka Lake Is Goal Of Equestrian Class
Shawnee Lake is the goal of the second summer session pack trip which will be taken this Saturday for riding classes, Gayle Mott has announced.
Mr. Mott plans to drive the riders to Topeka in his station wagon early Saturday evening. The students will then have access to the swimming facilities of the lake as well as to the Girl] Scout camp located near Shawnee Lake. Riders plan to stay overnight at the camp and will ride Mott's horses back to Lawrence early Sunday morning.
The Mott station wagon will be available to hold alternate riders on the return trip and will carry supplies as well.
Whither Our Money; Ask KU Students
By Paula Reeve
"Oh, where, oh where has my money gone?" has become the theme song of many students on our campus who want to know just why they have to pay so much for an activity fee and just where their money goes after it leaves their pockets.
All-Student Council members are constantly approached by some belligerent student demanding an explanation to the above and asking why the Council doesn't "do something" about it. And here is the answer:
The Board of Regents fixes the price of the activity tickets, taking into consideration the needs of various campus organizations partially supported by allocations from the activity fee.
Business office records for the fall semester of 1942 and the spring semester of 1943 show that the $9.24 fall activity fee and the $5.90 spring

At a party arranged and given by Miss Sara Peter's 9:30 elementary German class last week in the German department on the third floor of Fraser hall, Miss Peters told the story of the German opera, "Tannhauser," after which the opera was played on the phonograph.
It was an evening of German music with Miss Peters, telling about German operas, showing a few opera programs to the group and explaining them. Also the group joined in the singing of several well known German songs, among these "Ach du lieber Augustin." Some of the students also gave special musical numbers, one being the famous "Filgrim's Chorus."
German Class Has Party In Fraser
Miss Peter's 1:30 class and Mr Sam Anderson's elementary German class were also invited, and all in all it was an interesting musical "get together" which was enjoyed by all, state members of the class. To top off the evening refreshments were served.
Craig To Speak In Convocation Monday Morning
Hardin Craig will talk on "The Approach to University Education" at a 10 o'clock convocation next Monday morning, July 26, in Hoch auditorium. Prof. John W. Ashton, who arranged to have the speaker, is a personal friend of Mr. Craig. He described Mr. Craig as an excellent speaker interested in the field of Humanities. The two met at Iowa University a few years ago.
Mr. Craig, listed in "Who's Who", is one of the leading Shakespeareans and Renaissance scholars in the United States today. He has studied abroad, especially in England, and is now a professor of English at the University of North Carolina. This summer he is visiting professor at Iowa. Mr. Craig is the author of many books and articles and was formerly the head of the School of Letters at Stanford University.
Interested in youth and education, Mr. Craig plans to spend several days here in Lawrence before and after his convocation talk, Professor Ashton said.
Australia Has Important Role In Allied Effort
By Dolores Sulzman
The possibilities of Australia becoming the future arsenal of democracy south of the equator were disclosed in a picture and lecture program on "Australia Now" given by Mrs. Aloha Baker in Fraser theater Tuesday evening. By presenting a composite picture of Australian background and present war effort, she brought out the important part Australia is playing in the war and predicted that it would become one of the world's leading industrial countries.
Mrs. Baker captured the attention of the audience at the beginning of her lecture and held their interest

Services For Stout Held Yesterday
Funeral services were held yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock at the Methodist Church for W. T. Stout, who was a storekeeper in the department of biochemistry and the School of Pharmacy. Mr. Stout died early this week at the age of 82.
Mr. Stout was born in England, but his family home was established at McLouth, Kan. He first began working at the University in 1918. Among the persons who survive him is a daughter, Mrs. George Lowman, who lives in Lawrence.
Retired about a year ago, Mr. Stout returned to work to aid the University during the war while help is so scarce.
YMCA Meeting In Union Sunday
A general meeting for all YMCA members will be held Sunday at 4 p.m. in the Kansas room of the Union building, Harry O'Kane, YMCA secretary has announced.
Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will talk to the students about "Some Things We Are Learning Today."
This meeting is the regular once a-month open meeting of the organization.
Uniforms For V-12's Arriving
By Dolores Sulzman
By Dolores Suzumai
Just arrived!-one large shipment of "what the well-dressed V-12 will wear." Yes, it won't be long now till every V-12 man on the campus will have his complete wardrobe of the latest in K.U. campus attire.
if you've noticed anything resembling the old American "women at a bargain counter" scene in the hold of the good ship K.U. (basement of Frank Strong to the less nautical-minded), just relax. Even navy discipline can not hold down the enthusiasm of V-12 men waiting to receive around 50 pieces of clothing (counting shoes, socks, and gloves in pairs).
The fellows you saw lugging good-sized boxes across the campus were the lucky ones. To prevent any mix-up in the clothing just received, the fellows are stenciling their names on each piece.
The V-12 men will not appear in their uniforms until all men are completely outfitted, and from some reliable sources comes the rumor that the sooner it happens the better they'll like it. This is a bit off-side, but I've heard that some of the fellows were a bit optimistic when they packed to join the navy—this hand laundry business isn't much fun even if you do have a shirt to wear while the other one is drying.
And then there's another practical side to it—you know the one about "there's something about a uniform." Why sure, Mac, and they say that's solid.
Union Night
Union Night will be held in the Union Lounge Saturday, July 24 from 8:30 to 11:30 p.m. There will be cakes and dancing and Dorothy Mae Nelson will sing some popular songs. The music for dancing will be furnished by Dick Todd and his records. The admission will be 35c a couple for those without activity tickets.
Union Meeting For Young People
The Congregational church will have charge of a meeting for young people Sunday from 7 to 8 p.m. at Myers hall, which is across the street from the Memorial Union building. N. W. Storer, associate professor of physics and astronomy, will talk on "Some Implications of Modern Astronomy."
Navy Opens New Class Of Reserves
A ney naval reserve class, SV- $T_{p}$ has been opened to junior and senior engineering students or to junior and senior men who have majors in mathematics, physics or chemistry with sufficient mathematics background, according to Dr. Laurence Woodruff, University registrar and co-ordinator of military information for men.
Two men had made application for membership in the reserve yesterday, Dr. Woodruff stated.
Students in this classification, who become officer training candidates, will be called to active service at the end of the semester in which they enlist, and will be given deferred status until the completion of their University work.
An applicant to become acceptable for class SV-7 must be: a male citizen of the United States, not less than 18 years of age and under 28 at the time of enlistment, and single. Candidates must agree not to marry prior to completion of Reserve Midshipmen training.
He must be a regularly enrolled, full time junior or senior student in an accredited university or college pursuing an engineering course, a course leading to a baccalaureate degree with major in physics, naval architecture, mathematics, or electronic, or a pre-theological course. Chemistry majors who have taken numerous courses in mathematics who can be converted so as to be

1200 Louisiana Open To Women For Fall Term
The former Pi Kappa Alpha house at 1200 Louisiana will be open as a University women's residence hall this winter, according to a statement yesterday of Marie Miller, assistant to the advisor of women. Students who live in the house, which now contains aeronautical technicians, will eat at Corgin hall and the two houses will be run under the same system of management.
All contracts for residence balls will be let for September 23 to June 27. There will be three cooperative houses for women, the Kaw Kocties at 1138 Mississippi, the Jay Coeds at 1541 Kentucky, and the Harmon Co-op which is moving from Tennessee to the former men's cooperative house, the John Moore at 15371 Tennessee.
There are still two or three vacancies at Ricker hall, the residence sponsored by the Unitarian church, according to Miss Miller. The Campus House, Wager hall, and Westminster hall will also be open.

Bless the teachers who hold classes outside on these days! Even a quiz is bearable then . . . Coler Hissem. Delt, has suddenly become quite a favorite with boys and girls alike. The reason? Oh, he just returned from Wichita Sunday with a car.
Someone remarked to Frank Rush, ATO, that he certainly had a dark tan. "This is nothing," replied Frank, "Why, some summers I'm almost black. In fact, I have been troubled [with little Mexican kids coming up and sitting on my lap."
One of the girls in Professor Ashton's Shakespeare class yesterday was having a little trouble with some drum sticks. Suddenly they bounced off on the floor. Dr. Ashton was talking quite calmly about "The Tragedy of King Lear." Just as calmly he remarked without a pause, "Don't start throwing things yet, we're just beginning."
It was suggested that one of the extra duties for the V-12 (if they need any) would be to cut the lawn at Corbin hall. There have been so many complaints about chiggers!
Jack Jarvis, Sigma Nu, has been troubled with his dates going home on the week-end. "This week," Jarvis warns, "I'm the one that's going home."
Guest columnist next Tuesday will be Don Cousins. That is, I think he will be.
PT-3 has adopted three little birds that fell down their chimney last week. The boys are taking the best of care of them, but their health is failing rapidly. Maybe they're trying to develop carrier pigeons.

Smith-Catlett Wed In Neodesha
Dorothy Catlett and Dale Smith, both of Neodesha, were married Saturday night at the Christian church in Neodesha. Dorothy was a freshman in the College last year and a member of Alpha Chi Omega. Mr. Smith was a senior here last year and is now studying medicine in Kansas City. He was a member of Alpha Tau Omega and Phi Beta Kappa. They are living at 3721 Wyoming, Kansas City.
Students in the summer session who attended the wedding and assisted at the reception following are Barbara Barnjum, Katie Beowits. Frances Nelson, Margaret Fesler, Betty Dell Mills, and Leonard Robison, who was best man.
Prof. John W. Ashton of the English department has just returned this week from a Western Folklore Conference held at Denver University from July 14 to 17. Professor Ashton represented the American Folklore Society at the conference. The field of folklore research was outlined and analyzed by members of the conference. They also discussed folk manners and customs,
Alumni Have Rank Of General
Five generals have been found among the lists of the University of Kansas alumni and the Alumni Association is looking for more. If anyone knows of others, the report of them will be gladly hailed and properly set up in the records, according to Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni Association.
Number one is Major General Ennis Whitehead, class of '20, who is second in command of the air forces in the Southwest Pacific area and personally has charge of operations for the advanced echelon in the New Guinea sector. Mrs. Whitehead, the former Mary Nicholson, who was graduated in 1918, and their daughter, Margaret, class of '42, are also alumni. Mrs. Whitehead and a high school-age son, Ennis, Jr., live in Kansas City now. General Whitehead is a Coffey county boy.
Marcellus L. Stockton, who was cut a few hours short of graduation by World War I in 1917, is a Brigadier General on the headquarters staff of the Northwest U. S. Sector at Ft. Lewis, Wash. He married Marie Buchanan of the class of 1918. General Stockton also entered the University from Coffey county.
Another Jayhawker wearing stars is Ward H. Maris, a former student with the class of 1914. He is commanding general of artillery in the 95th Division.
Bridadier General (retired) M. A. W. Shockley attended school on the Lawrence campus in 1892-93 and was graduated in 1898 from the Kansas City Medical College, which was later absorbed by the K.U. Medical School and its alumni included with the others. General Shockley was in the Medical Corps. When retired he was Assistant Surgeon General.
Latest to reach the rank is Julius Holmes, who went away for army duty and training and diplomatic service just before graduation with the class of 1923. His nomination for Bridadier General has just been sent to the Senate. He is on the staff of the Allied headquarters in Africa and was on the advance mission to gave the way for the American landing in Africa last fall. Mrs. Holmes is the former Henrietta Allen—she was a student with the class of '25, and is the daughter of Senator and Mrs. Henry Allen of Wichita. General Holmes grew up in Pleasanton and later lived in Lawrence.

David Boylan, Kansas City, is a member of the engineering staff of the General Chemical company, Haddonfield, N. J.

Frank L. Hopkins of New York City, formerly a special political correspondent on the New York World, came Saturday to spend a few days with his uncle, Dr. Edwin M. Hopkins, who taught English in Kansas University from 1889 until 1937.
Frank Hopkins Visits Uncle In Lawrence
Mr. Hopkins, accompanied by Dr. Hopkins, visited the Journalism building Saturday afternoon. He said the newsroom was typical of all newsrooms. He looked with much interest at the portrait of his uncle that hangs on the east wall of the news room in the Journalism building. Dr. Hopkins was the first teacher of journalism in the University and established the University Kansan as a regular newspaper.
Frank L. Hopkins visited in Lawrence in 1920 when he was traveling with James M. Cox in the latter's campaign for the presidency of the United States. In 1924 he was a correspondent for the New York World and traveled with John W. Davis.
Mr. Hopkins was on his way home after a visit with his son, Lt Frank P. Hopkins, and Mrs. Hopkins, in Dallas, Texas.
New Display Up In Spooner-Thayer
About fifty prints of landscapes, scenes, and portraits by Chicago artists, were put up this week in the south gallery in Spooner-Thayer museum.
Miss Minnie Moodie, curator, explained she selected the 50 from a gift of 250 to the University from the discontinued W.P.A. art projects in Chicago.
"The prints are well done, and some are by fairly well known artists," said Miss Moodie.
The Morgan collection of 30 sketches, 20 in pastel colors and 10 in black and white, will be up in the north gallery until the end of the month.
Prof. Charles L. Morgan, of the School of Architecture, made the sketches during the summer of 1926 when he made a trip to Europe and visited Spain, France, and England.
A remarkable thing about the sketches is that it required no more than a brief 30 minutes of the artist's time to complete many of them.
Over 18,000,000 pairs of ladies' silk and nylon hose, weighing 445 tons, have been turned in to the Government.
(continued from page one) throughout the hour and a half program. She spoke in a pleasing and audible voice with an enthusiasm which was conveyed to her listeners. Mrs. Baker and her husband have traveled extensively in Australia, and she has lived in 85 foreign countries. Many of the pictures shown were taken by her and her husband on their trip across Australia.
AUSTRALIA---ple. "They, like we, are people of action. Their wants are similar to ours—their want for freedom of religion, a living wage, their want to own their own homes, and to spend their money and leisure as they please.
For All Occasions RIDE THE BUS
"The Australian people were not asleep at the outbreak of war in the Pacific. They were wide awake and on their feet. There was nothing diplomatic about their demand for help from the United States. They wanted action, and their motto has become 'work, fight, or perish,'" said Mrs. Baker.
"I do not think Japan is beaten yet. The Japanese have been preparing for this war for many years, and they aren't ready to give up. I think we have a long way to go with them," said Mrs. Baker after mentioning the victories of the Allies in the Pacific.
The Rapid Transit
Somewhat startling to the audience was the fifth column movement of the Japanese in Australia, spoken of by Mrs. Baker. Japanese agents brought to Australia on fishing boats have been sounding out the coast of Australia for the past 25 to 35 years. The Japanese probably know more about the Australian coastline than do the Australians, Mrs. Baker said.
Co.
"The Australians are more akin to us in spirit than any other people in the world," said Mrs. Baker in comparing us with the Australian people. "They, like we, are people of action. Their wants are similar to ours—their want for freedom of religion, a living wage, their want to own their own homes, and to spend their money and leisure as they please.
Your Local Bus Service
"The Australians place great emphasis on sports. They are free and easy people with a 'Johnnie's as good as his master' attitude. They play their sports hard and clean," Mrs. Baker stated with determination.
The remarkable conversion of Australia's resources into wartime materials in the last several years serves to illustrate the spirit of the Australian people, the speaker said.
The films presented gave a comprehensive picture of Australia's wheat industry, forests, gold mines, dairy and cattle industries and how they have been adapted to wartime industry by the seven million people of Australia. They gave the audience a view of Australian people, country, and industry. The picturesque animals of Australia, particularly the kangaroo, added color to the lecture.

University men will be glad to ar that the swimming pool in Robyn. Gymnasium will be open from 5:00 to 4:30 on Saturday afternoons, ad from 2:30 to 6:00 on Sunday afternoons. All swimmers are requested to bring their own towels. Job Harrison will be on duty as life hard. It might be well to explain at the water will be kept low for the next two or three weeks because beginning instruction classes are beg given.
If you have been complaining about the heat, just think how you could like it in a heavy, hot football uniform, puffing up and down the field, with the glaring July sun burning down upon you. Then you might top your complaining, for that is just what over 50 Jayhawker football candidates have been doing three times a week. Except that they are not only just puffing up and down the field, but are also doing a lot of contact work, blocking and kicking, and when these practice sessions are over you certainly see a group of dripping, weary gridders as Coach Shenk is really "putting them through the mill."
A large enthusiastic group was present at Dr. Forrest C. Allen'sasketball meeting last Tuesdayat which he showed some movies onsketball fundamentals as demonstrated by the all-victoriousus 1936yhawkers. The first practice session was called for Tuesday afternoon, July 27, at 4:30.

Or. Allen's name again appeared the sport headlines when Hugh lerton, Jr., commented in his arms Roundup that a Spanish rectional leader, who had written to Cox, Colorado U. cage coach De Phog's former students, for formation about his favorite game, ketball, had only to listen when wind was right, and he'd likely
hear some doughboys in Sicily arguing about basketball . . . "Or Phog Allen sounding off on the same subject from Kansas."
Dr. Allen was a good friend of Louis Lower, the Kansas City Municipal Auditorium manager who was slain by a self-appointed traffic director who regrets that he happened to kill "a big shot." Phog had been closely associated with Lower in the direction of the N.C.A.A. sectional and national basketball championships held in the Auditorium.
Recently, Esquire conducted a poll as to "the six greatest sporting events of the twentieth century," and the official summary of the replies affords a grand opportunity for controversy, if you feel so inclined. But maybe you'd better see—if you haven't already—the official chart:
1. The Jack Dempsey-Gene Tunney ("long count") fight in Chicago, September 22, 1927.
2. Bobby Jones's grand slam of the four major golf titles in 1930.
3. Jesse Owens' three firsts in the 1936 Olympic games.
4. Deciding game of the 1926 world series, in New York, when Grover Alexander struck out Tony Lazzeri with the bases full, as the Cardinals won the championship.
5. Babe Ruth's "called" homer against the Clubs in the 1932 world series in Chicago.
6. Red Grange's five long runs for touchdowns for Illinois against Michigan at Urbana, Ill., October 18, 1924.
Lt. Charles E. Fairman, who played a guard position on the Kansas State football teams in '38, '39, and '40, was killed in a plane crash last week near the Sedalia, Mo., airport. Wilmeth Sidat-Singh, former University of Syracuse football star, and Nile Kinnick, Iowa University's All-American, also have met their deaths in plane crashes. The University of Iowa "T" club has started a memorial scholarship fund in honor of Kinnick.
Chauncey Simpson who has moved up to replace Don Faurot as the University of Missouri football coach has outlined a summer practice schedule of three workouts a week, starting in August, to guard the Tigers Big Six championship. Missouri has early season games with Minnesota and Ohio State. Whether Simpson will have all—or no—experienced players depends on the navy.

M.M.'s Are Ahead In Softball
A softball game between a team of machinists mates and a picked all-star team from members of seven other aggregations will be played in South park tomorrow night. Such a game is to be a feature of the softball league play which is under the sponsorship of Chief Starkey of the naval training station.
Six of the nine teams in the league are made up of men from the Hill. Games are played each Tuesday and Wednesday nights, with round-robin play scheduled to be completed early in September. The machinists mates team, which is leading the league, consists entirely of enlisted men from the K.U. ship, the Navy (Ship's Company) team has both officers and enlisted men in its personnel, and the aviation cadets are just what
If naval aviation cadets reservists now in school are called to active duty, only green 4-F men and boys under 18 will remain.
the name implies. The "K.U. Boys" are mainly University students, with other men on the playing list. The roster of the Irish Rascals is made up of Lawrence men, the SOW team consists of men who work at the ordnance plant, and the Haskell team comes from Haskell Indian Institute.
Two teams of V-12 men are entered in the league, titled the Atlantic and Pacific fleets corresponding to the geographical location of the units from which the men come. The Atlantic team comes from men living in the Beta house, Templin hall, Phi Gam, or Phi Delt houses, and the Pacific team from men in the Phi Psi, Kappa Sig, D.U., and Sigma Nu houses.

First Cage Practice On Next Tuesday
Basketball practice will start Tuesday, July 27, at 4:30 p.m., according to Dr. F. C. Allen, basketball coach. All civilian and V-12 students who are interested are to come out then, he added.
Dr. Allen said yesterday that a game with the Great Lakes team to be played Feb. 5 in the Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City is the only one scheduled as yet. The rest of the games will be decided on in September. The Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association, commonly known as the Big Six, will be functioning this year.
For the information of V-12 men, the teams making up the Big Six are Iowa State, Nebraska U., Missouri U., Oklahoma U., Kansas State, and K.U. Besides the five Big Six games that will be played here the schedule will include games with nearby colleges.
A film, "Basketball Fundamentals" was shown Tuesday night to the civilian students interested in basketball.

Rotsies May Return To College Campuses
The War Department announced yesterday that because of reduced quotas for officer candidate schools a large number of advanced R.O. T.C. students who were recently inducted into active service would be returned to college to continue academic studies.
The announcement revealed that advanced R.O.T.C. students who have been graduated from college are being placed in officer candidate schools now, and that all of them will have been assigned by Sept. 30.
Other advanced R.O.T.C. students who have been called to active duty will be permitted, upon their request, to return to college on inactive status. Second-year advanced students not yet graduated will be permitted to remain in college through the semester in progress next Dec. 31, unless graduated sooner.
Frrst-year advanced R.O.T.C. students, now undergoing basic military training at replacement centers, will complete that training before being assigned to college under the supervision of the army specialized training division. They probably will remain n college for two or more quarters before vacances will permit their assignment to officer candidate schools.

SOUTHERNAIRES---
(continued from page one)
Negro melodies from the South—"Sunday Morning Band," "Sinner Please Don't Let This Harvest Pass," "Were You There," and "Do You Call That Religion."
"Honey," another traditional song of the Negro race, was the next number presented by the Southernaires. This was followed by the famous spiritual, "Work Song." Concluding the first part of their program, the quartet sang a patriotic selection, "We Are Americans Too," by Blake, Cooke, and Razaf.
Following intermission the Southernaires gave quite conclusive evidence that they are also able exponents of other kinds of vocal music. The first of this group was the familiar "Songs My Mother Taught Me" by Dvorak, noted Bohemian composer. Also included in this part of the program were "I Love the Moon" by Rubens and "The Rosary" by Nevin.
"Seene from the Weatherbeaten Whitewashed Church" was a fitting climax to a brilliant performance. This final group of selections which created the atmosphere of a church service, was composed of a collection of sacred hymns and spirituals.
The program was given over the auditorium's public address system, in order to create the impression that the performance was done through radio broadcasting.

Col. Washington Doubts Rotsies Sent Back Here
It is not likely that any of the advanced R.O.T.C.'s, that were ordered from Kansas University the last of May will be returned while they wait for vacancies in officer candidate school, according to a statement of Col. William C. Washington, professor of military science and tactics.
The Kansas University R.O.T.C. students were sent to Camp Roberts in California and to Camp Wallace in Texas. Col. Washington believes the students will likely be enrolled in colleges near these camps.
The latest regulations received by Col. Washington from the war department on the disposition of R.O.T.C. students say that first year advanced R.O.T.C. students now undergoing basic military training at replacement training centers, upon completion of this training, will be returned to college under the supervision of the army specialized training division, pending the availability of vacancies in officers candidate schools.
During this period, which may be long enough to provide two or more quarters, they will be given academic instruction designed to make them better officers in their branch of service. Military instruction will continue during this college period.
Second year advanced R.O.T.C. who have graduated are now being placed in officer candidate schools as rapidly as vacancies become available.
Second year R.O.T.C. students, who have not graduated or who

"Students have worked under heavier than average schedules this summer, but yet their attitude of support of the band has remained fine."
One of the features of the Thursday program will be a cornet duet of the "Indian Love Call" from "Rose Marie" (Friml) by E. Thayer Gaston and Duane Olson. Three militaryairs will be played-"U.S. Field Artillery March" (Sousa), "The Marine Hymn" (Phillips), and "Anchors Aweigh." Nine other numbers will also be presented.

"Mug" 500 V-12 Men Yesterday
More than 500 members of the V-12 naval reserve, both engineers and medical students, were photographed yesterday morning at the "ship" in Frank Strong hall. Lieut. C. A. Mickelman, V-12 commanding officer, stated that all men had gone through the line by 11:30, an average of 175 an hour.
Starting at 8:15 a.m., and going through alphabetically, some men whose last initial is far down the alphabet missed most of their morning classes. Men whose last name begins with the letter "A" were able to attend all of their classes, Lieutenant Mickelman stated.
The photographs taken yesterday will be used on the men's identification cards, which they will be required to carry on their persons at all times.
Liberty night for V-12 men will be on Thursday night this week, according to the Lieutenant. On that night the men may remain away from quarters until 11 o'clock if they so desire.
High School Seniors To Be Discussed
Prof. A. H. Turney, director of the University psychological test bureau, will present and discuss the data on high school seniors at K.U., who they are and how they are doing, in a fourth of a series of educational forums to be held in the men's lounge of the Memorial Union building at 7 o'clock tonight.
High school students of senior status, who were in the upper 10 percent of their class and recommended by their principal to take the examinations for V-12 and A-12 University work, are the ones to be discussed, said Dean J. W. Twente of the School of Education, arranger of the forums
All students of the University are invited to attend these forums, Dean Twente stated.
After the opening data of whom they are and how they are doing has been presented by Professor Turney, the discussion will be taken up by the audience. "Are they better off in high school or in the University" and "What do high school principals think" will be some of the leading questions to be answered, said Dean Twente.
Washburn Signs For Two Games
Washburn University was added to the list of K.U.'s football opponents this fall with the announcement by Karl Klooz, University bursar and athletic board official, that a contract had been signed which provides for a two game home-and-home series.
The first game will be played Friday night, Sept. 24, in Topeka. On Oct. 16 the Ichabods will invade Lawrence for the second game. Originally the latter date was scheduled for a game with Washington University at St. Louis but that game was cancelled by the request of the Missouri school.
The schedule as it now stands:
Sept. 24—Washburn at Topeka
Oct. 9—Iowa State at Lawrence.
Oct. 16—Washburn at Lawrence.
Oct. 23—Nebraska at Lincoln.
Oct. 30—Kansas State at Lawrence
Nov. 13—Open.
Nov. 18—Missouri.
One open date, Nov. 13, remains on the Jayhawk grid schedule, according to Klooz, and efforts are being made to arrange for a game with some service team then. Mr. Klooz stated that that game would be a home game for the University, if possible.
Nov. 30—Missouri at Lawrence.
Tired? Rest See Campus From Bench
Do you ever get tired of sitting on a hard chair in a class room staring at drab, uninteresting blackboards and walls? The English literature class must have felt that way when it decided to meet at the Pi Phi bench back of Blake hall. From this large, stone, semi-circular seat you can see the Wakaura Valley for miles. It's certainly more inspiring than the glimpses you get from a class room window.
West of Green Hall and looking over the grove is a large bench with an inscription running around the sides and back of it to the effect that it was presented by the class of 1914 to the University of Kansas.
On the back of the bench two dates are inscribed—1873 and 1923. Our alma mater in love and gratitude Between them this is printed, "To on the fiftieth anniversary of Kansas Alpha of Pi Beta Phi." There are other older benches on the Hill if you want a different view.
On the other side of Green Hall is a small plain stone bench that is almost hidden in a clump of redbud trees.
"Winds of heaven brave it
Sons of men save it Save our redbud tree.
Rains of heaven lave it Sons of men save it
Rains of heaven lave it
Save our redudd tree,
is the inscription on this one. In
three corners of the bench are
the names of Rose Morgan, Edith Clarke,
and Kate Stephens. In the fourth
corner is the date of their donation—
April, 1916.

Craig Outlines 3 Approaches To Education
Industry, breadth, and the imaginative point of view were stated as the three essential avenues of approach to higher education by Hardin Craig, professor of English at the University of North Carolina, who spoke at convocation in Fraser theater yesterday morning.
Speaking in the interest of the individual student and the individual college teacher, Mr. Craig discussed the three avenues of approach with great enthusiasm relating each to the present situations. Mr. Craig's interest in the world of humanities was reflected through-out his speech as well as in his manner of speaking.
"The civil war which rages in some places among the sciences, both pure and applied, the social sciences, and the humanities arises out of inadequate knowledge and comprehensions of the field of learning and man's relation to it," said Mr. Craig in presenting breadth as one of the approaches to higher education.
"A proper modern education comprehends all three fields. One may say that every educated man neglects one of these fields at his own peril in relation to human life," the speaker said.
After discussing each of the three aspects of learning separately, Mr. Craig illustrated their direct rela-

Choir Featured In Vespers
The final All-Musical Vespers of the Summer Session, scheduled for next Sunday evening at 8 o'clock in Hoch auditorium, will feature the Summer Session a cappella choir of 75 voices under the direction of D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts.
The choir will sing some attractive folk songs, some numbers from the Russian liturgical choral literature, and as at the last vespers, a Negro spiritual, said Dean Swarthout.
The Summer Session string trio, composed of Ruth Orcutt, pianist, Waldemar Geltch, violinist, and Dean Swarthout, cellist, will play a movement from a "Trio in C Minor" by Gretchaninoff, while the quintet, consisting of Jan Chiapusso, pianist, Mr. Geltch, first violin, Frances Robinson, second violin, Barbara Huls, viola, and Mr. Swarthout, cello, will play the opening movement of the Dvorak "Quintet in A Major."
The duet "Quis est homo" from Rossini's "Stabat Mater" will be sung by Meribah Moore and Irene Peabody, both members of the voice faculty.
To open the vespers Laurel Everet Anderson will play "Vermeland," by Howard Hanson, on the organ. The vespers will offer one of the finest programs of the summer stated Dean Swarthout, and will last slightly longer than an hour.

Service, Sanitation In Union Fountain Are Deplorable
Starving to death in the midst of plenty—such a thought chases through the mind of almost every patron of the Memorial Union fountain these days.
Slow and inefficient service causes an almost intolerably crowded condition every noon in the fountain. With quicker service many more persons could be accommodated in less time and with less general discomfort.
The reasons for the poor service? Personnel and management problems, we believe, rather than an insufficient number of serving persons. When waitresses chase each other up and down the aisles (though this doesn't happen at noon) stand talking to each other and to uncompanied male students and V-12 men while other patrons wait, and leave luncheon dishes on the tables until three o'clock—stricter supervision or different employees, or both are needed.
Confession reigns supreme at the bar and sandwich counter when a waitress turns in an order. Often the response is "I'm not going to fix that. Tell 'em we're out." Or the person to whom the order was given tries to wheedle someone else into preparing it. While the customers wait.
In precetime the fountain employed only male waiters, who gave much better service. Of course, it is impossible to remedy the situation now by hiring men, but we wish it weren't.
Also deplorable is the unsanitary state of the fountain at many times. Sticky, grimy table tops, unswept floors, china and glasses that are given only a hasty rinsing—such conditions have no place in an eating establishment, especially one that is as new and modern as the fountain. Upstairs in the ex-ballroom where the navy men eat, flies flit with the greatest abandon and many find their way down to the fountain.
A big step in remedying matters would be taken if the supervisor would enforce strict conditions of sanitation and of waitresses' conduct.

After great effort, a member of P.T.S finally succeeded in procuring the phone number of Virginia Urban, personable freshman at Corbin Hall. He recorded the precious number on a match-book cover, which he witlessly proceeded to pass on to a friend who 'wanted a light.' The book of matches, having been passed from smoker to smoker, has completely escaped the frantic scrutiny of the poor lad. Won't you help him, Virginia? Merely call 3332.

Take it from me, you haven't lived until you've invaded that solid, censored town; that burg really jumps, Station V.W. (alias Virginia Wickert) is visiting her sister, Phyllis, at Corbin this weekend, and she brings the sad news that Claffin is out of beer. She tells us that even the Claffin dogs are trotting dejectedly up and down Main Street with tongues adrool. Incidentally fellows, Virginia will be a freshman at K.U. next fall.
Saturday night Mary Martha Hudelson was leaning out her window. She says she needed air, but in view of recent mysterious serenades, we wonder. Anyway, whatever the attraction was, it was so intriguing that her blood pressure was too potent for the window screen, and out she went!!—almost.

Court Takes $1 Per Day For Upkeep
There are four tennis courts south of Robinson gym which are closed now, but according to Forrest C. Allen, professor of physical education will be cleaned up and prepared for use if the demand merits it.
Do you need exercise? Is the mental strain of college getting the best of you? Then try one of the many tennis courts on the campus.
South of the stadium are courts which are being used this summer, and also one which has not been kept open because there has not been enough demand for it. Dr. Allen says that the best court on the campus is the one south of the stadium under the old elm tree.
There is no charge made for the use of the tennis courts, although it is quite expensive to keep them in good condition for use. Dr. Allen revealed that it costs an average of $1 a day to keep one court sprinkled, rolled and lined. The hard rainstorms that we had earlier this sum-

'Strictly Scuttlebutt'
By Lt. (j.g.) C. V. McGuigan U.S.N.R.
A new highlight has been added to the local softball league, which, by the way, is traveling at a torrid pace. The new highlight was a game between the Navy Machinist's Mates and an all-star team composed of players from the other eight teams in the league.
And speaking of the Machinist's Mats ball team brings to our mind a farewell to one of the most popular diamond stars on the aggregation—Pharmacist Mate C.L. Castle. Castle left recently for sea duty with the United States fleet, and, in the future, will do his hitting directly against the Axis. The happy little Mississippi will be missed around the training school also—especially that deep southern drawl.
It's congrats to Yeoman M.P. Roberts, of the Machinist Mates school, who recently became the proud father of a six pound, nine ounce daughter, Patricia Ann. Mrs. Roberts, and her daughter are doing nicely, and yeoman Roberts is almost normal again.
A recent visitor to the Kansas campus, Ensign Joseph McDonald, gave a very interesting talk and demonstration to the machinist mates and V-12 boys on how to keep afloat after the "abandon ship" order is given. His knowledge of the subject is first hand, as he floated in the waters some two hours after the sinking of the aircraft carrier Wasp.
It's good-by to the 10th division and the 4th division of the Cooks and Bakers. Both leave a fine record behind them, and special credit should be given to the Cooks and Bakers, who have worked long and hard despite the unusually warm weather the last two weeks.

SUMMER SESSION KANSAN, LAWRENCE. KANSAS

Sport Chatter
By Bob Bock
Summer basketball begins this afternoon under Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, Kansas' nationally known cage mentor. It is the first summer basketball practice to be scheduled in the University's history. Dr. Allen has made it definite that he doesn't want any men who are going out for football or who plan to play the grid sport this fall to report for basketball. He doesn't in any way want to interfere with Coach Henry Shenk's football practice.
Along the football front, all that can be said is that practices are coming along fine, the men are rounding into shape, and that it is HOT. Coach Shenk is hoping for cooler, more footballish weather, as the days have been too hot for the extensive blocking and contact work he has been giving and will continue to give his men. Last Friday when the mercury got up to 100 degrees the squad went back to their short pants, doffing their heavy uniforms, which would have been unbearable. Coach Shenk, who is a stickler on fundamentals, has been drilling his men extensively on blocking and hopes by September to have some blockers who can really get in there and take their opponents off their feet. Shenk also gave his men a few plays last Friday, and plans to have a light scrimage the first cool day that comes along.
One of Coach Shenks' "better boys" is Frank Gruden of Roundup, Montana. He is a guard, weighs 200 pounds, and is 5 feet 9 inches tall. Last year Gruden played with Wyoming University and was selected for a position on the All-Rocky Mountain conference second eleven.
Intramural activities perhaps will be arranged in the near future depending on interest shown". Dr. Alen has announced. "They definitely ill not be very extensive since the navy men have their own competitive sports program. Football and basketball practices afford most University athletes with all the outside sports activities they can handle, and city softball league, which has or Navy teams and one team of university students, the KU Boys,"ushes softball, the main summer cam sport, out of the picture as there couldn't be enough men left to make teams to form a league here," he added.
Therefore, stated Dr. Allen, all that could be left would be the minor sorts such as tennis, ping pong, golf, handball, and with the general usyness of everyone in this speed-up, war-time semester, they would probably not be too popular, since the tramural tournaments in golf, ping pong, and handball which were to be impleted by July 1, were never ayed off. However, Dr. Allen stated that if there are enough students interested in some sort of intramuralort program or tournament during August, such could be arranged.
Forty-seven men are reporting at ashburn University to Coach Bobaugh. The first practice session held Wednesday. Approximately players proved to be backfield candidates. Kansas hopes to schedule a game with the Capital city school, which also has a Navy V-12 program, to be played here in Merial stadium in September. Some carby service eleven may also appear here this fall as athletic officials
are trying to arrange for a game, but as yet no definite announcement can be made.
No official announcement has been made, but it is rumored that Kansas Wesleyan at Salina will not play football this coming fall, thereby leaving only Washburn College and Pittsburg Teachers planning to continue the grid sport in Kansas outside of K.U. and Kansas State.
A recent announcement by Iowa State College officials said: "The increased cost of living will have no effect on the price of football tickets this fall," Hugh Fullerton, Jr., AP sports writer, wisecracked that "What we want to know is what about the decreased quality of football?"
Nila Vaughn Gentry has gone to McPhern to work in the laboratory of the McPhern county hospital. She plans to return to school at the beginning of the fall term.
Hawaii's climate is so uniform that the native language has no word for "weather."
Shuyler To Cornell
Harlan Shuyler, former student at K.U. this summer and now in the Navy V-12 program, has been transferred from Washburn University in Topeka to Cornell University at Ithaca, N.Y. He received his transfer in order to take a more extensive training schedule.
The Hays office, one studio official intimated, has put thumbs down on zoot suits in future pictures.

brary. Flanking the bulletin boards they see more use than the other, more secluded ones. No mention is made on them of the date of building or who gave them to the University.
The round seat encircling the Rock Chalk Cairn back of Frank Strong hall is another one with a good view. On the brink of the hill it looks down over the stadium and town. It was rebuilt here in 1941 after it had been torn down twice in its former position at the bottom of the hill. Now it guards the famous Cairn built from stones that were part of the old North College building. At present it is part of the military area back of Strong hall that is restricted for the sailors.
Next time you want to take the load off your feet, remember these benches. They were put there for the students to use.

CRAIG---tion in the war effort. Essentially they are no different in war than in peace, he stated. Some persons are of the opinion that the scientific branches producing war materials are the only ones to which it is practical to devote our efforts in training and instruction.
He will go on active duty at one of the Navy's air operational training centers before being assigned to a combat zone.
(continued from page one)
By pointing out that war itself, dealing with diplomacy, propaganda, government, law, education, labor management, relief, transportation, finance, and the operation of political bodies, is a social science, Mr. Craig brought out the importance of increasing social intelligence among our people to insure a victory in peace and war.

"It is the humanities which might induce man the more readily to live for his country, or to die for it. They have to do with his manners, his morals, his taste, and his intellect; and also with man's ambition, his patriotism, his industry, and his hope of salvation," stated Mr. Craig.
With reference to students the speaker made the amusing remark that along with athletics and social functions, love is weakening students today. This remark was directed especially at the men. He greatly pities the man who lets love get in the way of his life work. Industry, an approach to higher education, is the cure for this misguiding influence, according to Mr Craig.
Corbin hall has announced the double pinning Sunday of Phyllis Wickert to Bill Benefiel, and Ruth Prentice to Jack Schroll. Miss Wickert is a college junior from Claflin, Benefiel is a college junior from Medicine Lodge. Miss Prentice, a college sophomore during the past year and a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma, is from Kansas City, and Schroll is a college sophomore from Hutchinson. Both men are members of Sigma Chi fraternity and premedical students.
Corbin Announces Double Pinning
The pinnings took place at a dinner at the Colonial Tea Room. Miss Wickert's sister, Virginia, assisted at the pinning. Larry Hickey and Mary Martha Hudelson were guests at the dinner. Chocolates were passed at Corbin hall by Ruth Krehbiel, Miss Wickert's roommate.
Miss Wickert and Miss Krehbiel each received an orchid, and Mrs. Alma Brook, Corbin hall social director, and Virginia Wickert received gardenia corsages.
DOUBTS--have not yet entered an officer candidate school, are being permitted to return to school, at their request, to continue their academic work. This group will be permitted to remain in college, to complete the semester or quarter in progress on Dec. 31, 1943, unless sooner graduated. Those who do not elect to return to college will be held at the replacement training centers, where they will be utilized as assistant instructors to provide them additional training and experience which will be of a distinct value to them when they enter officer candidate school.

Officer candidate schools now run three to four months, at least a month longer than formerly; this fact has made the new ruling regarding R.O.T.C. students necessary, stated Col. Washington.

We are asking for bids for a concrete tennis court to be bui under the shade of the elm trees near the stadium," Dr. Allen said.
