Palmer will switch at the quarterback or center position. Den Diehl and Homer Sherwood will be first line reserves for guards Kirk Scott and Capt. Harold "Sparky" McSpadden.

McSpadden and Dick are the two returning lettermen from the 1943 Big Six Championship Jayhawk team.
The Airmen boast of a "hot shot" in DeSchaeine, forward, who potted 20 points in the team's first game against Sterling College which was won, 54 to 24.

Art Museum To Feature Persepe Crib
The Persepte Christmas Crib, representing the Nativity, will be the December feature at Spooner-Thayer museum. The old Italian way of handling the Christmas scene in its beautiful and unbelievable detail can be observed under the special lighting arrangements.
St. Francis of Assisi originated the art of Christmas cribs in 1223 to teach the story of Christ's birth to those who could not read. From that time until the 19th century, the making of cribs and their figures, called "Persepe" was widespread in southern Europe. The bodies of the dolls are usually of rags to make them pliable. The heads are often of terra cotta. Some are made entirely of papier-mache, and some are carved out of wood.
On one of her trips to Rome, Mrs. W. B. Thayer purchased the group, including the case in which it is arranged, when it was on exhibit at the Castle San Angelo. The castle was the home of Prince Massimo, member of one of Rome's oldest families.
A group of reproductions of Madonnas will be exhibited in the north gallery on the second floor. They are the property of the department of drawing and painting of the University. These, with a smaller group owned by the museum, and a collection of foreign postcards depicting the Nativity, feature such outstanding early painters an Memling, Botticelli, Luini, Raphael, and Albrecht Aldorfer. The postcards are from museums all over the world.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Senate Takes Up Juvenile Problems
Juvenile delinquency, one of the biggest problems on the home front, is at last being given a much-needed investigation by the government. Conscious that juvenile delinquency is threatening to retard the war effort and break down morale on the home front, the sixman senate sub-committee is prepared to devote funds and concentrate activity to cope with the problems.
It is amazing that such a move has not been made before. Fathers overseas and working mothers, or families with both parents working have created a situation where thousands of children are left during the day without any normal home supervision. This is especially true in the congested war areas.
The chief of the children's bureau of the Department of Labor has at last discovered that the drain on manpower resources has also led to the employment of boys and girls in what she terms "unwholesome surroundings." In Lawrence alone, many children under 12 years of age do the work of grown-ups, work that requires them to stay at their job until long after midnight, civic authorities have declared.
Europe has its hungry, aged children who have known neither youth nor freedom from fear of death at any moment, but the United States has its own peculiar kind of abnormal childhoods—that of children left alone at home or on the streets to fend for themselves while their parents work. Small michiels done for amusement lead to bigger ones, and the child is soon off on a pastime of crime which will make him a menace to society.
Multiply such cases by all those happening over the country and the results are not only appalling but an actual challenge to the government as well as the parents. The government is now responding. Have the parents done as much?
Juvenile delinquency must be stamped out through the home. The government can appropriate, legislate, and set up bureaus until eternity and accomplish very little if the parents will not cooperate or make an effort on behalf of their own children. Parents resent outside interference in the lives of their children, but if they will not take the responsibility of giving their own offspring normal lives, the government has to step in.
Barnes to Address Informal Meeting
Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes, first speaker on this year's Community Lecture Course, will address interested students in an informal meeting at 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon in the Kansas room, Joy Miller, chairman of the Student Forums Board, announced today. The meeting will be under the sponsorship of the Forums Board.
Press Club Meeting In 'Shack' Today
The Press Club, an organization for journalism students or for persons interested in journalism, will meet at 4:30 this afternoon in room 102. Journalism building, to elect new officers and to discuss journalistic opportunities, Prof. Elmer Beth, acting chairman of the journalism department, has announced.
Refreshments provided by the Daily Kansan will be served.

Rock Chalk Talk
By HANNA
HEDRICK
What a happy ordeal: It is rumored that the only time Metz Wright, Beta, was at a loss for words was the night he put out his pin to Shirley Rauch and "went down the line" at the Gamma Phi house. He emerged in a cold sweat and was recognizable only after an inch of "warpaint" had been removed from his face. He regained full consciousness after the loving cup had been passed around by brothers in the bond sometime later.
Money drives a man to drink—and other things: Down to his last penny, Ivan "Skavinski Skavar" Cherry, one of the PT8 boys, gathered his chums around and wagered small sums of money that he could eat anything they gave him. Which brought on drinking glasses, light bulbs, and razor blades. While they watched with extreme astonishment, Ivan carefully chewed the glass and light bulb into little pieces, swallowed them, polished off the razor blade, and departed, well-heeled. To explain this phenomenon, our hero is a believe-it-or-not character who used to do it professionally.

BILL NO.13
A Bill on the All Student Council Book Exchange
groups of fraternity men, soldiers, and sailors lustily serenaded the sororities and organized houses. As the night progressed, the serenades also progressed, from the "front door" variety to the "shtop, r can't remember that damn song." kind.
- * *
Be it enacted by the Associated Students of the University of Kansas;
Miss Fortune: The gal who claims the song, "Everything Happens to Me" is Kappa freshman, Gloria Gray. Her friends are seriously considering handcuffing her to her bed lest she really seriously injure herself. About a month ago, there was a slip twixt the knife and the thumb while preparing bugs for entomology. It proved by actual experiment that she had a quantity of red blood, and six stitches were taken to sew up said finger. Sometimes later, Gloria got a cramp in her leg, which worried 10 pledges and as many actives for an hour before they relieved the situation by lifting her (as one would lift a plank) and dumped her into a tub of hot water. The latest also involves a limb (of a different sort) and a horse erroneously named Lady Luck. The limb was just high enough off the ground to hit her in the eye as she rode under. That should have necessitated a respite from studying for several days, but didn't.
Sec. 2. That the ASC Book Exchange shall be under the supervision and regulation of the Auditing Committee of the All Student Council.
Sec. 1. That the Women's Self-Governing Association Book Exchange be transferred to the jurisdiction of the All Student Council and be called the ASC Book Exchange.
Sec. 3. That the Auditing Committee shall choose each spring two faculty members plus the present Book Exchange manager to sit with the Auditing Committee as a Book Exchange Board to select the manager for the forthcoming school year.
Sec. 4. That said manager shall be a woman chosen upon the basis of initiative and ability. That the Board shall meet and interview all candidates and shall obtain references from at least three sources to include one past employer, if possible. The present manager shall submit at least two recommendations to the Board for the position of manager.
Sec. 6. That the Board may authorize the manager to hire such additional help as may be needed, their salary to be fixed by the Board.
Sec. 5. That the salary of the manager shall be forty dollars ($40) per month.
Sec. 7. That the policy of the Book Exchange manager shall be to allow only such profit to accrue to the Exchange as to pay all expenses and maintain a reasonable balance for new purchases.
Sec. 8. That a permanent reserve fund be maintained in the name of the All Student Council Book Exchange into which fund shall go all profits of the ASC Book Exchange over and above a reasonable amount to be maintained as an operating fund, said amount to be determined by the Auditing Committee. That this reserve fund shall be used for the purpose of establishing a cooperative book store.
Sec. 9. That this bill shall be in full force and effect from and after its publication according to the Bill on Legislative Procedure.

Keynote Is Defeat for Axis
The keynote of the current meeting, according to unofficial sources, is defeat accomplished against the Berlin-Tokyo axis in a manner that will guarantee to all posterity that neither Germany or Japan will ever rise again to menace the security of the world.
The Stalin conference is expected by Washington to lead to the following concrete results:
1. Synchronization of American, British, and Soviet grand strategies for an all-out offensive against Nazi Germany in the spring.

The editor of the University calendar and the committee to investigate Negro omission from the University band and glee club were announced and the book exchange bill was passed at a meeting of the All-Student Council last night in the Pine room.

Freshman Coeds To Vote Thursday
Art Museum To Feature Persepe Crib
The Persepe Christmas Cub, representing the Nativity, will be the December feature at Spooner-Thayer museum. The old Italian way of handling the Christmas scene in its beautiful and unbelievable detail can be observed under the special lighting arrangements.
St. Francis of Assisi originated the art of Christmas cribs in 1223 to teach the story of Christ's birth to those who could not read. From that time until the 19th century, the making of cribs and their figures, called "Persepe" was widespread in southern Europe. The bodies of the dolls are usually of rags to make them pliable. The heads are often of terra cotta. Some are made entirely of papier-mache, and some are carved out of wood.
On one of her trips to Rome, Mrs. W. B. Thayer purchased the group, including the case in which it is arranged, when it was on exhibit at the Castle San Angelo. The castle was the home of Prince Massimo, member of one of Rome's oldest families.
A group of reproductions of Madonnas will be exhibited in the north gallery on the second floor. They are the property of the department of drawing and painting of the University. These, with a smaller group owned by the museum, and a collec-

White House Tells Official Details Of Cairo Meeting
(International News Service)
The White House today announced the following:
"President Roosevelt, Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek and Prime Minister Churchill, together with their respective military and diplomatic advisers, have completed a conference in North Africa.
"The following general statement was issued:
"The several military missions have agreed upon future military operations against Japan. The three great Allies expressed their resolve to bring unrelenting pressure against their brutal enemies by sea, land and air. This pressure is already rising."
"The three great Allies are fighting this war to restrain and punish the aggression of Japan. They covet no gain for themselves and have no thought of territorial expansion. It is their purpose that Japan shall be stripped of all the islands in the Pacific which she has seized or occupied since the beginning of the first World War in 1914, and that all the territories Japan has stolen from the Chinese, such as Manchuria, Formosa, and the Pescadores, shall be restored to the Republic of China. Japan will also be expelled from all other territories which she has taken by violence and greed. The aforesaid three great powers, mindful of the enslavement of the people of Korea, are determined that in due course Korea may become free and independent."
"With these objects in view the three Allies, in harmony with those of the United Nations at war with Japan, will continue to persevere in the serious and prolonged operations necessary to procure the unconditional surrender of Japan."
Basketball Season Starts Tonight With Herington AAB Opponents
Tonight at 7:30 the curtains will rise on the 1943-1944 basketball season when Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen sends the 27th edition of his Kansas Jayhawk basketball teams on to the Hoch Auditorium floor to tangle with the Herington Army Air Base cagers.
"Phog" plans to do as much substituting as possible in these early season games. Don Barrington, Bill Lindquist, Bob Malott, and Bob Turner all will see action at forward. Dean Corder and L. J. Palmer will switch at the quarterback or center position. Don Diehl and Homer Sherwood will be first line reserves for guards Kirk Scott and Capt. Harold "Sparky" McSpadden. Gridsters George Dick and Charles Moffett, despite only two nights of practice, may see action as they both are valuable men. McSpadden and Dick are the two

Restrictions Made On Army and Navy
Wednesday night liberty has been canceled for all Navy trainees on the campus as a preventive measure against the flu epidemic in nearby localities, announced Chief George Starkey. Only Lawrence liberty will be granted Naval units this weekend.
All Army trainees have been restricted to the campus for this weekend. Lt. Col. W. L. McMorris also announced that taps will be at 10:30 instead of 11 p.m. in the future.
The restrictions for tonight were modified late today by the Navy to permit V-12 men to play on the basketball team and for others to attend the game or other campus activities.
V-5's Purchase War Bonds
V-5's Purchase War Bonds
Every man enrolled in V-5 at Illinois Wesleyan purchased a war bond in the third loan drive.
Although specific decisions regarding war plans were agreed upon by President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill and Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek at the conference, attended by a glittering array of Asiatic military specialists, the nature of the conclusions naturally was kept secret.
Cairo—Sweeping Pacific offensives from Singapore to the Chinese interior—with a direct attack upon Japan as a probability—were forecast today as among the first fruits of the recently completed three-power conference.
By PIERRE J. HUSS INS Staff Correspondent
However, sufficient grounds were given to justify the conclusion that the three principal conferences gave Lt. Gen. Joseph W. Stillwell Major Gen. Claire L. Chennault, Lord Louis Mountbatten and other Allied leaders in the Far East the "go ahead at full speed" signal. This is expected to be reflected in a co-ordinated onslaught against Nippon, designed to engage Japan's armed strength as soon as practicable in an all-out showdown fight.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Senate Takes Up Juvenile Problems
Juvenile delinquency, one of the biggest problems on the home front, is at last being given a much-needed investigation by the government. Conscious that juvenile delinquency is threatening to retard the war effort and break down morale on the home front, the sixman senate sub-committee is prepared to devote funds and concentrate activity to cope with the problems.
It is amazing that such a move has not been made before. Fathers overseas and working mothers, or families with both parents working have created a situation where thousands of children are left during the day without any normal home supervision. This is especially true in the congested war areas.
The chief of the children's bureau of the Department of Labor has at last discovered that the drain on manpower resources has also led to the employment of boys and girls in what she terms "unwholesome surroundings." In Lawrence alone, many children under 12 years of age do the work of grown-ups, work that requires them to stay at their job until long after midnight, civic authorities have declared.
Europe has its hungry, aged children who have known neither youth nor freedom from fear of death at any moment, but the United States has its own peculiar kind of abnormal childhoods—that of children left alone at home or on the streets to fend for themselves while their parents work. Small michiefs done for amusement lead to bigger ones, and the child is soon off on a pastime of crime which will make him a menace to society.
Multiply such cases by all those happening over the country and the results are not only appalling but an actual challenge to the government as well as the parents. The government is now responding. Have the parents done as much?
Juvenile delinquency must be stamped out through the home. The government can appropriate, legislate, and set up bureaus until eternity and accomplish very little if the parents will not cooperate or make an effort on behalf of their own children. Parents resent outside interference in the lives of their children, but if they will not take the responsibility of giving their own offspring normal lives, the government has to step in.
Barnes to Address Informal Meeting
Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes, first speaker on this year's Community Lecture Course, will address interested students in an informal meeting at 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon in the Kansas room, Joy Miller, chairman of the Student Forums Board, announced today. The meeting will be under the sponsorship of the Forums Board.
Press Club Meeting In 'Shack' Today
The Press Club, an organization for journalism students or for persons interested in journalism, will meet at 4:30 this afternoon in room 102. Journalism building, to elect new officers and to discuss journalistic opportunities, Prof. Elmer Beth, acting chairman of the journalism department, has announced.

What a happy ordeal: It is rumored that the only time Metz Wright, Beta, was at a loss for words was the night he put out his pin to Shirley Rauch and "went down the line" at the Gamma Phi house. He emerged in a cold sweat and was recognizable only after an inch of "warpaint" had been removed from his face. He regained full consciousness after the loving cup had been passed around by brothers in the bond sometime later.

Money drives a man to drink—and other things: Down to his last penny, Ivan "Skavinski Skavar" Cherry, one of the PT8 boys, gathered his chums around and wagered small sums of money that he could eat anything they gave him. Which brought on drinking glasses, light bulbs, and razor blades. While they watched with extreme astonishment, Ivan carefully chewed the glass and light bulb into little pieces, swallowed them, polished off the razor blade, and departed, well-fueled. To explain this phenomenon, our hero is a believe-it-or-not character who used to do it professionally.

groups of fraternity men, soldiers, and sailors lustily senecaded the sororities and organized houses. As the night progressed, the serenades also progressed, from the "front door" variety to the "shtop, i can't remember that damn song" kind.
Sec. 2. That the ASC Book Exchange shall be under the supervision and regulation of the Auditing Committee of the All Student Council.
Sec. 3. That the Auditing Committee shall choose each spring two faculty members plus the present Book Exchange manager to sit with the Auditing Committee as a Book Exchange Board to select the manager for the forthcoming school year.
Sec. 4. That said manager shall be a woman chosen upon the basis of initiative and ability. That the Board shall meet and interview all candidates and shall obtain references from at least three sources to include one past employer, if possible. The present manager shall submit at least two recommendations to the Board for the position of manager.

Miss Fortune: The gal who claims the song, "Everything Happens to Me" is Kappa freshman, Gloria Gray. Her friends are seriously considering handcuffing her to her bed lest she really seriously injure herself. About a month ago, there was a slip twixt the knife and the thumb while preparing bugs for entomology. It proved by actual experiment that she had a quantity of red blood, and six stitches were taken to sew up said finger. Sometimes later, Gloria got a cramp in her leg, which worried 10 pledges and as many actives for an hour before they relieved the situation by lifting her (as one would lift a plank) and dumped her into a tub of hot water. The latest also involves a limb (of a different sort) and a horse erroneously named Lady Luck. The limb was just high enough off the ground to hit her in the eye as she rode under. That should have necessitated a respite from studying for several days, but didn't.
Sec. 6. That the Board may authorize the manager to hire such additional help as may be needed, their salary to be fixed by the Board.
Sec. 5. That the salary of the manager shall be forty dollars ($40) per month.
Sec. 7. That the policy of the Book Exchange manager shall be to allow only such profit to accrue to the Exchange as to pay all expenses and maintain a reasonable balance for new purchases.
Sec. 8. That a permanent reserve fund be maintained in the name of the All Student Council Book Exchange into which fund shall go all profits of the ASC Book Exchange over and above a reasonable amount to be maintained as an operating fund, said amount to be determined by the Auditing Committee. That this reserve fund shall be used for the purpose of establishing a cooperative book store.
Sec. 9. That this bill shall be in full force and effect from and after its publication according to the Bill on Legislative Procedure.

From the Sidelines
By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Tuesday's cage rivals, the Fort Leavenworth Flyers, got off to a good start last night by whipping the Geneva Chestnut Inns, 57 to 33 at Kansas City. The Ft. Leavenworth team boasts several high-calibre college cagers. Sgt. Alden Tilberg, former Bethany College hoopster, led the Flyers with eight field goals and a free toss.
Oklahoma's Brumley took scoring honors in the Big Six Conference play with six touchdowns and 12 extra points for a 48 point total. He was followed by Dellastatius, M.U., with 36, Reece, M.U., 30, Lebow, Oklahoma, 30, and Gast, Iowa State, also with 30. Bob George's 13 points in his three conference games put him in a tie for ninth place. Brumley also led with non-conference games counted in as he countered 79 points, 10 touchdowns, in nine games. Bob Carson, who played six games, scored 25 points to land in seventh place.

Don Barrington should have by all means been included in yesterday's list of gridmen who should be back next fall. . . . Barrington, a V-12 junior, will be counted on heavily to take over as the "big man" in the Kansas backfield. . . . Coach Henry Shenk was speaker last night at a football banquet given the Junction City High School football team. . . . Shenk was coach of all sports there from 1930 to 1941 . . . Henry Fnkra, whose Tulsa Hurricane stormed through their second straight undefeated season, is being boomed as "coach of the year" by the Downtown Quarterbacks Club of Tulsa. . . They call him a "mircale man" because he built his team, which will meet Georgia Tech in the Sugar Bowl New Year's Day, from 4-F's and 17 year olds. . . We can't quite see this miracle business for the 27 4-F's on his squad were hardly to be sneezed at. . . Tulsa alumni had scouted the country for the "cream of the rejects" and had come up with such stars as Maurice "Red" Wade, former Missouri Tiger.

Three Allied Leaders Meet Stalin In Teheran, Capital of Iran Following Conference in Cairo
Long-range Allied strategy for ultimate destruction of the Japanese empire in the Far East and the Nazi tyranny of Continental Europe was mapped in even greater detail today following the momentous conference in Cairo which brought together President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill, and Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek.
Persistent reports in London and Cairo said the three leaders
Persistent reports in London already were meeting with Premier Joseph Stalin somewhere in Iran and both of them said the mission was in Teheran, the capitol.
Gen. Chiang Returns to China
A Reuter dispatch from Chung- king reported however, that Generalissimo Chiang, accompanied by his wife, had returned to the Chinese capital.
Obviously the most important aspect of the diplomatic situation is whether or not Chiang is present or will be present at the meeting with Stalin. The junction of these two powerful figures for the first time could be a development in the war that has no parallel, for China has been at war with Japan for a decade and Russia maintains neutrality with the enemy of Chiang and the Allied nations.
The conference presumably will deal with the fate of Nazi Germany and the subject will be disposed of in the same completeness that characterized the Cairo conference which the decisions were made or the dismemberment of Japan.
Lf. Treat Emphasizes Need for Air-WACs
Hub Sings Carols in French Christmas carols were sung inrench and French games werelayed at the meeting of the Frenchub yesterday in Frank Strong hall.
"Interesting women in becoming Air-WACs is a more important mission than any I ever flew in the South Pacific." Lt. Mark G. Treat, 25-year-old veteran of more than a year of air battles in the South Pacific and head of a recruiting team for Air-WACs, said in an informal talk with some University women yesterday afternoon. "No matter how many planes and pilots we have, they alone cannot win the air war. We must have sufficient personnel on the ground to keep those planes and pilots in the air."
Lt. Treat pointed to the work which is being done in England, Australia, New Caledonia and New Zealand, by the English counterpart of the Air-WAC, the WAAF. With the creation of the Air-WAC, American women are being given the same opportunity, he declared.
"We are not asking that you woven quit school, but we do want you to realize the need there is for college women. We need 48,000 women immediately." Lt. Treat stated, and we will need more all the time. all we can do is ask you to consider these possibilities to help in the war short."
Accompanying Lt. Treat. were Lt.

1,092 Marines Die in Gilberts
BULLETIN
Washington, (INS) — Secretary of War Stimson announced today that American army casualties since Dec. 7, 1941, total 94,948 dead, wounded, missing and prisoners of war. This included 14,321 killed, 32,690 wounded, 23,417 prisoners and 24,490 missing.
Washington, (INS) — The navy announced yesterday that bitter fighting during the invasion of the Gilbert islands resulted in 1,092 United States dead and 2,680 wounded.
Previous estimates placed Jap losses at approximately six thousand, virtually the entire garrison on Tarawa, Makin, and Abemama.
Heaviest losses were on Tarawa which Marines stormed in the face of terrific fire from shore batteries and machine guns—1,206 Americans were killed in action and 2,557 wounded. At Makin, where United States army troops carried the brunt of the battle the American casualties were 65 killed and 121 wounded. Losses Caused by Wind Shift
Knox said part of the heavy losses resulted from a shift in the wind that lowered the sea and caught some of the invasion boats 500 yards off shore.
No explanation was made of how many marines were included in the total but it was understood that vitually all the casualties at Tarawa were marines.
Epidemic Scare Is Without Basis
A report from the Watkins Memorial hospital to allay any rumors of epidemics on the campus, stated that there is a slight increase in hospital cases because the Army trainees must be either on duty or in the hospital, while civilian students only mildly ill usually stay at home. There are 41 patients in the hospital now, none of whom are influenza cases.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Political Parties Need To Clean Up
Now with freshman election all over but the counting, the women's political parties would do well to turn their thoughts to cleaning up the disorder they have created.
Stickers pasted on buildings, statues, windows and every other object that will take glue, testify to the efficiency and enthusiasm of the parties. Posters attached to every conceivable surface show the earnestness and zeal with which party members worked to put their candidates before the public.
Squad Needed for Clean-Up
However, the man power shortage has hit the building and grounds department hard. The department employees perform good service in keeping the campus neat and orderly, but there are no extra men to detail to scraping off stickers or taking down posters.
taking down posters.
The removal of the offending stickers (now that election is over they have no further purpose) will be a long, tedious undertaking for buildings and grounds. On the other hand, a squad of women from each party could tidy up the campus in a very little time if they just pitched in.
Stickers Litter Campus
No one objected to the stickers being posted during the campaign, but now that the need for them is ended, the parties would be performing an appreciated service by removing them. Frayed, marked up, half torn off, the stickers are not conductive to the beauty or orderliness the campus tries to achieve even in wartime.
The political parties have an opportunity to impress their constituents. It's up to them.

1.092 MARINES---long before the flu gets a chance at them.
(continued from page one) ties included both army and some seamen since Secretary of Navy Knox recently announced there were light naval casualties.
Dispatches from the Pacific disclosed that a total of 4,000 Japs were entrenched in deep well-protected fortifications of Tarawa when the Marines waded in neck-deep water to storm the beaches. Officers said the fighting was the toughest and bloodiest of the war and that the Marines had more casualties in this action than in any other one operation in their history. It was disclosed that reconnaissance failed to show the exact strength of the Japs at Tarawa because they had entrenched themselves in deep foxholes and dugouts and remained under cover during aerial bombardment.

Shown for the first time in captivity: Admittedly duped by freshmen, Delta Gamma active, Carol Stuart, found herself cooped up in the little space outside a basement window with only a dinner bell for company—all during intermission from evening study hall. Crouched beneath the metal grating above and pressed by the window and the cold earth on either side, Carol tolled her bell frequently for help while the frosh poured water on her through the grating. The bell, although satisfactorily mournful, did little good.
It was heard only by V-12's of PT2 who could get no farther than half-way out their upstairs windows.
Another Valley Forge: With reports from Washington that a flu epidemic is on its way, army officials here have ordered ASTP men to turn off their radiators and throw open all windows before leaving their quarters, thereby giving migrant germs the cold shoulder. Evidently, testify shivering ASTP's, it has never occurred to the army that they will all die from overexposure

They serve on the battle fronts, too. Western Electric has manufactured some eight million quartz crystals for use in the dependable communications equipment Bell System research is giving the armed forces.
In the better days ahead this experience will again be directed toward keeping this country's telephone service the best in the world.

He should stick to the high seas: Wally Grimes, Sigma Chi and V-12, reports with pride that he got "beat up" in Ft. Riley where the football squad went for its last game of the season. "Not that I got in the game," Wally admits good-naturedly, "I owe it all to a tank." Wally went riding in the turret of this tank with some unknown lieutenant who evidently had a grudge against the navy. At the end of a test course driven at over 60 per, Wally was bleeding in several places, and presented a problem to Trainer Dean Nesmith.

Diplomatic Moves Overshadow Battles
For the second day in succession, developments on the battlefront took a back seat to diplomatic and political developments.
Troops of the British eighth army smashed through the German winter line on the eastern flank in Italy, hurling the Nazis into full retreat, and heavy punishment was meted out to the enemy in Russia and Southwest Europe.
event was Chancellor Malott, staunch Beta, who did not fail to take advantage of his opportunity. The Chancellor started off by telling Sigma Chi squad members he realized they were good rushers—but he really thought this was going too far.

PT6 Wins Over PT7 In Overtime Play.
The fight for the intra-mural V-12 football championship narrowed to a two-team race last night when PT6 downed PT7 in an overtime 7 to 6 to tighten its hold on second place and move closer to the undefeated league leaders, PT8. PT8 has won 6 and PT6 has won 5 and lost 1. PT6's only defeat came at the hands of PT3 earlier in the season, 4 to 0, on two safeties.
In the first half a Sloan-to-Gray pass play went 92 yards for the PT6 touchdown. Early in the second half, Whittier, PT7, raced 62 yards down the sidelines with a pass interception to tie up the game. In the overtime on PT6's last down, Blair passed to Banks for 21 yards to top PT7's 19 yards gained, to win.
PT8 added their sixth straight win, 6 to 0. over PT5 Monday night. The lone tally came in the second half when Crandall, PT8's ace passer, fooled the defense, running, instead of passing, 35 yards for the touchdown.
In the basketball league, PT1's B team Monday night trounced PT2, 46 to 18, and PT6's B downed PT7 33 to 26. In the PT1-PT2 game, Mills led the scoring with 17 points, trailed by Reis with 9. Kerfoot dropped in 3 goals for the losers. Jones and Shive scored 13 and 9 points, respectively, for PT6, while Farber hit 12 for PT.
Spanish Club To Meet Today
The Spanish Club will meet at 4:30 today in 113 Frank Strong hall, according to Miss Maude Elliott, professor of Spanish.
JAYHAWKS WIN----
(continued from page one) team here, showed power under the basket and was especially rugged on rebounding. The play of Naval Cadet Canister, who played last winter with the Pensacola Naval Air Station, was especially pleasing to Kansas fans. With only one night of practice, the burly cadet dropped in seven points. Willard Franks, former Ottawa U. athlete, performed well. George Dick and Charles Moffett, football men, both got into the game. Much is expected of both of them.
More Support for Saturday Game Two more naval V-5 cadets who have had no little experience are expected out tonight. They should strengthen the Jayhawks who meet the powerful Hutchinson Naval air station cagers here Saturday night.

"Pike" Gawthrop, guard, a star at Wichita U. and a three year man on the Universal Oilers; R. J.

RAF Continues Berlin Bombing 2 Newsmen Lost
(International News Service)
Large new areas of Berlin were left in smoking ruin today in the wake of a fresh assault by heavy bomber formations of the Royal air force.
Hundreds of four-motored planes lashed out against the capital in a repetition of last week's offensives which destroyed fully one-third of Germany's military, industrial, and political hub.
Lowell Bennett Lost
It was apparent the Nazis were waiting for the attack, for they sent into the skies all available fighter planes. Despite this savage interception, the Germans could not beat off the attack.
Forty-one bombers were lost—and with them two news correspondents. One was Lowell Bennett of International News Service, a 25-year-old veteran of the German blitz on London, of the campaign in North Africa, and of the war itself.
Returning pilots reported Berlin dotted with "very large fires" and it was apparent that huge new damage was meted out to the city which stands today as the most heavily attacked of any in the world. Battle Rages for Two Hours
According to Stockholm reports, the battle raged for two hours and 146 dead airmen were taken from wrecked bombers.
Council Will Launch Christmas Seal Drive Saturday Morning
The Student Christmas Seal drive will get underway at 11 o'clock Saturday morning when intramural managers or their representatives from every organized house meet in the Pine room of the Memorial union to outline a canvass of the Hill, Mary Morrill, chairman of the public relations committee of the All-Student Council, has announced. Miss Joie Stapleton, of the physical education department, chairman of the student drive, will speak to the group.
The Christmas Seal drive to raise money for the tuberculosis fund is being sponsored by the All-Student Council through its public relations committee. Other members of the committee are Charlotte Price, Virginia Rader, John Sells, and Ruth Krehbiel.
Washington, (INS) — Madame Chiang Kai-shek today cabled to Vice-President Wallace and House Speaker Sam Rayburn her warm appreciation for enactment of the Chinese exclusion repeal bill which she termed a deed which will "echo around the world." Her message was read to the house at the direction of Speaker Rayburn.

The 15-mile-an-hour speed limit existing on the Hill has been extended by the chief of police from Oread to 11th street, past the Phi Kappa Psi and Triangle houses, now occupied by Naval Air Corps cadets. University military authorities asked that the extension be made.
Riggs to Give Lecture Sunday
An illustrated lecture on North American dinosaurs will be given at 3:30 Sunday afternoon in the Little Theater in green hall by Elmer S. Riggs, honorary curator of paleontology at Dyche museum and for many years curator of paleontology at Field Museum in Chicago.
Mr. Riggs will describe the discovery of these great extinct reptiles in North America, the conditions under which they lived, the way their fossil remains are buried in the rocks, petrified, and preserved through millions of years. Illustrating with many of his own photographs, Mr. Riggs will show colored pictures of mounted skeletons of dinosaurs as they are exhibited in a number of museums. He will also show pictures of restorations of the animals as they are believed to have appeared when this continent had a much warmer climate and when lowland and shallow water stretched over the region now occupied by the Rocky mountains.
A sidelight to his speech will be Mr. Riggs' account of his own work and that of a number of University of Kansas men who have had an active part in collecting and studying these great monsters of the past.
This lecture is the second of a series of three sponsored by Dyche museum with the desire to give students and the public a further understanding of the exhibits in the museum.
Fine Arts Students Presented Recital
An instrumental septet, a piano solo, and four voice solos were presented on the School of Fine Arts student recital program yesterday afternoon in Fraser theater. The recital opened with a vocal solo, "Lullaby" (Scott), by Donna Hemppler.
The septet, composed of Barbara Haas, clarinet; Mark Viesselman, bassoon; Harry Spencer, French horn; Peggy Kay, violin; Eugene Ninger, viola; Martha Lee Baxter, violoncello; and Ann Starr, bass viol, played the first movement of "Alllegro" (Beethoven).
"Sequedille" from "Carmen" (Bizet) was sung by Jeanette Coons. Two solos, "Calm as the Night" (Bohm) and "A Resolve" (Fontenailles), sung by Merton Anderson, closed the program.
Ruth Dudley sang two solos,
"Black Bird's Song" (t and
"When Love Is Kind," al
lish song. The one piano solo was
presented by Allen Rogers. He
played "Polonaise in A Flat Major"
(Chonin).

Carlson Speech Now Postponed Indefinitely
The John Roy Carlson lecture has been postponed indefinitely because Hoch auditorium is not available to the Student Forums Board on Dec. 16, owing to an orchestra rehearsal, Jay Miller, chairman of the board, announced today. Mr. Carlson's agent has indicated he can not come to the University at any other time before the Christmas vacation. Moreover, the board feels there is a question whether the congressional investigation of Mr. Carlson would be completed at the time set for the lecture.
Mr. Carlson, author of the best-seller "Under Cover," was originally scheduled to speak Dec. 9 but was forced to cancel the engagement because of "unexpected and unavoidable government commitments."
"We intend to bring Mr. Carlson to the campus before spring." Miss Miller said, "if proper arrangements can be made."
Nursery School Open House Set
The University Nursery School at 1100 Missouri street will hold open house from 3 to 5 Sunday afternoon for persons wishing to observe how war workers' children are cared for while their parents are employed.
Twenty-one children between the ages of two and five are enrolled in the school, which was started last summer as a combined University and federal project for the purpose of providing adequate care for the children of employed mothers.
School Is Up-to-Date
Generally under the supervision of the department of home economics, the school is one of the most modern and up-to-date in this area, both in the equipment and the methods used. Special stress is laid upon physical, nutritive and social care of the child, and there have already been instances where children have shown improvement of various defects, such as faulty speech.

Allies Advance, Meet Heavy Resistance Along Battlefronts
On the Italian front, troops of Gen. Sir Bernard L. Montgomery's British eight army seized the heavily defended town of Castell-Frentano, eight miles north of the Sangro river and hammered on toward San Vito, the former terminus of the German supply line.
Forces of the United States fifth army picked up new territory in the Calabritto sector despite heavy enemy artillery fire. Gen. Mark W. Clark himself was under fire of the Nazi guns but was not injured.
Dispatches from Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's headquarters reported desperate German resistance all along the battlefront.
There were few changes on the Russian front, where Germans were reported massing their forces for a general counter-offensive west of Kiev. Northwest of Gomel and in the Zholben, Soviet army troops maintained their advance.

'War Just Part Of Revolution'
Real Criminal Is War System
"We must wake up and realize we are at a crisis. We must find out what the realities of the world are, and then consider how to handle them to win the peace. Lastly, we must consider our prospects for doing this.
The war is simply a secondary manifestation of the present great world revolutionary period. It is more unsettling than the first world war was, Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes told a small audience at the opening Community lecture last night.
"Peace in the world order, like charity, begins at home. We can't have poverty, unrest, and suffering at home and export Utopia. Men who can't run the United States are claiming they can run the world. The United States is not showing the world the way to peace."

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Dr. Barnes Advises More Social Control
Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes improved upon General Sherman's definition of war in his discussion yesterday afternoon in the Kansas room, stating that "war is an anachronism." Further, "it is the extreme example of cultural lag."
If we use our science to kill off people more and more effectively, we will lose our civilization, predicted Dr. Barnes, and we will lose it much faster than did the Greeks and Romans, unless we bring it under social control.
We have allowed our science and technology to get ahead of us, while our social institutions have remained archaic and inharmonious with the modern civilization, pointed out Dr. Barnes in explaining the reason for the cultural lag.
There are only two ways out of this lag, according to Dr. Barnes. The bridge between advanced science and primitive social institutions can be made rationally and gradually by intellectual leadership and by education, or if modern reform is no longer adequate, there is revolution.
The first way is preferable, of course, but Dr. Barnes warns that we may have waited too long and have "flunked by default."
Education must be linked with social process to achieve this evolution, but since the educational institutions are among those that are most backward, it is a case of the blind leading the blind, Dr. Barnes pointed out. Therefore, the salvation of civilization lies in building up the social sciences to the level of scientific and technological progress.
YMCA Members to Plan Program at Mass Meeting
Members of the YMCA will have an opportunity to suggest a program the Y can sponsor for the coming year at a mass meeting of the YMCA at 4:30 Monday afternoon in the Union lounge, Thornton McClannahan, president of the YMCA, announced today. McClannahan urges members to bring all their ideas.
NURSERY---everyone takes a half-hour nap. The rest period is followed by fruit juice and cod liver oil, and then by outdoor play until 11:30 am. when lunch is served. Then there is a long nap period until 3 or 3:30 p.m. After that the children eat and then play in or out of doors until their mothers call for them.
Federal Aid to School
continued from page one)
Cost to the parents for this service is $3.50 a week for each child. This amount does not cover the actual expense of caring for the children, the remainder of the cost being made up by grants from the federal government in the interests of speeding war production.
Miss Mary Elizabeth Evans, director, and three other full-time teachers instruct and care for the children with the aid of eight home economics students.
WAR--paradoxes in our thinking that we must get rid of before we can make a good peace, said Dr. Barnes. One is our "lynching bee" complex. War can't be stopped by killing off international criminals, however villainous they may be. The real criminal is the war system. It has been perpetuated by the Versailles treaty and the Kellogg pact. Now we are

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1943
By BEVERLY BOHAN
Borrowed Bar—from the Gamma Phil's who borrowed it from the Phi Bete's to provide atmosphere for an El Rancho party in honor of rushees. After fulfilling its purpose, the bar, deposited on the front porch, mysteriously disappeared.
The Phi Bete's became querulous; the girls worried and suspicious. Finally one night, a hooded figure in the form of Shirley Henry presented itself at the Phi Gam-SAE door and demanded to see Mrs. Oakes, house-mother. Vic Costello, answering the summons, was quickly overwhelmed and La Shirley stamped through the house loudly calling for Mother Oakes. When that played out, she declared her intention of buying the house, so naturally she had to look it over.
Meanwhile, sisters in the bond surrounded the house, soon discovered the worthy bar in the Annex, and gently bore it homeward—which story leaves little to surmise as to the long-debatable function of the Annex.
For the records—we think is this episode from Mr. Howey's V-12 economics class. Mr. Howey was holding discussion, in the course of which he asked V-12 Illgner the same question Illgner had answered successfully the previous day. After careful and ponderous consideration, our hero replied, "Why, Mr. Howey, don't you know the answer to that? I just told you yesterday."
While at the game—Wednesday night, a lull from the half brought
considering an international police force to perpetuate it. Suggests Cooling-off for Year
Dr. Barnes is against a harsh peace and the unconditional surrender policy set forth at Casablanca. These threats hanging over the enemy will have a psychologically bad effect on them. He blames Nazism in Germany upon the harshness shown the Germans after the last war.
"The more moderate, reasonable, and modest peace given, the better it will be. People must have social justice and security for a basis of world peace. Once people have a stake in peace, there will be peace. A cooling-off period of one year after the war would lead to a better peace. We need to plan now for the peace. So far, Uncle Joe is the only one who seems to be planning, and we don't like his plans."

Why don't they holler! This verse was obviously devised for appearance's sake when one considers the figures cut by the new cheerleaders.

As a last tribute—to Reed Whetstone, the dead man of the Phi Psi badge, whose coffin was on order, whose chair was for rigor mortis to set in, who never moved for the six months he lived in the Psi house. Last Tuesday afternoon when the Psi's were scheduled for a football game seven team members had a sudden call from Uncle Sammy. On this momentous day, ailing but courageous Reed played a sterling game at right end in honor of his departed brethren, collapsing immediately thereafter and remaining in a coma. Last night his sorrowing brothers called in an osteopath to view the remains, meanwhile donning the robes of mourning and preparing his epitaph: "We know not when he passed, but we loved him all the same."

ism are part of Dr. Barnes scheme for a peaceful future. He would have the world divided into regions having the same economic functions and geographical boundaries. These would include the British isles, Scandanavia, Central Europe, Russia, the Balkan states, and a region composed of Spain, Portugal, and France. He does not believe we are ready for a world federation yet. He advocates a federation of Canada with the United States.
"We must conquer our anti-Russian feelings. We will have to accept her form of government, because she will not change it. There is no possible coalition that could conquer Russia. Already the British Tories are making plans to get the aid of Germany against Russia after the war. Russia will be busy for ten or fifteen years after the war building her country up again, but eventually will try for a world revolution," Dr. Barnes said.

LaGuardia Charges Federal Food Waste
Washington, (INS)—M mayor F. H. LaGuardia of New York City charged the Senate Banking and Currency Committee today that government bungling of the food program is causing almost unlimited waste of many basic commodities through spoilage.
"In New York alone, food costs have gone up 39 per cent since 1941 and the increased prices makes purchases prohibitive," the mayor said.

Hutchinson NAS Team to Fly Here For Game 7:30 Tomorrow Evening
The Hutchinson Naval Air Station basketeers will be flying in on a Navy plane for their game here in Hoch Auditorium tomorrow evening with the Jayhawks. The game will begin at 7:30 as will all home games this season.
Lt.-Coach Bill Hennigh will bring a speedy aggregation of former college stars. At center will be Joe Gillespie, former star at Notre Dame and a member of the championship team at Corpus Christi, Texas, last year.
NAS Team Experienced
Other starters will include Pike Gawthrop, a specialist in the station's athletic department and former star at Wichita U. under Lt. Hennigh; Joe Trosper, who starred for three years at Oklahoma U, and who despite being shorter than most cagers, is a scrappy player and a real team spark plug; and Don Johnson, a flight instructor, who played for Marysville Teachers, Marysville, Mo. The fifth man on the starting team is expected to be either John Pace, former Missouri University player, or Roy Spurlock, a man with limited basketball experience but an all-round athlete.
KU Lineup Same
Dr. Allen will put the same starting lineup on the floor that started the ASTP and Herington AAB games. In addition to the squad of 18 that suited for the Herington contest, Eddie Carr, V-5, and Bob Miller, V-12, will also be included. The officials will be Chief Sp. Hantze and Nick Biscotte.

PT8 Wins Over PT3, To Be Unscored-upon Intramural Champion
Monticello Starts 106th Year
PT8 became the undefeated, un-scored-upon champion of the V-12 intramural touch football league late yesterday by blanketing PT3 12-0 in their final game of the season.
PT8's two touchdowns were both due to the efforts of Charles Crandall, sophomore from Goff. The first he made on a wide end-run, and he tossed a long pass to Stahl for the second.
PT2 downed PT1 in the other game yesterday 12-6 to make PT1 the resident of the cellar slot with seven losses and no wins. By its victory, PT2 ended the season one place above cellar.
In games tonight PT6 will face PT5, and PT4 will meet PT7. With a victory over PT5, PT6 would gain undisputed possession of second place.

CARE OF CLOTHING
"Turn up shirt collars before washing them . . ."
This fella has the right idea—it's just his technique that's a little sour. Shirt collars will last much longer if they are turned up before being sent to the laundry, for then the crease around the top doesn't get such heavy rubbing and consequently lasts longer before fraying.
Another fine point to remember—when you need new shirts, whether military or civilian, buy Arrow. They live up to their fine reputation for lasting wear and perfect fit. Don't forget the Sanforized label, which guarantees fabric shrinkage less than 1%.

The Blank's are no longer leading in the "A" League in Men's intramural touch football, for 6 to 0 defeats at the hands of the Beta's and Phi Gam's nearly put them out of the running.
The way it now looks, it will be the Phi Gam's and the Beta's as the top two "A" League teams and the Delt's and Sig Alph's or possibly the DU's in the "B" League. Today, SAE and DTD will battle each other with the winner clinching a place in the playoff. Should the latter lose, the DU's could enter the playoffs

41ST YEAR
Machinist's Mate Trainees Replaced by Electricians
Replaced First Uniformed Group on Hill To Be Changed
Ending a tenure which began in July, 1942, the naval school for machinist's mates at the University will be discontinued when the last complement of sailors who arrived in November have completed the four months of training which qualifies them to serve as Navy firemen or machinist's mates, naval authorities at the University announced today.
Henceforth, the U. S. Naval Training School on Mt. Oread will prepare enlisted men for positions as electrician's mates aboard ship. New complements of trainees will arrive this month. The number of trainees in the new program will be the same as the machinist's mates school, Lt. A. H. Buhl, commanding officer of University naval units, said.
The machinist's mates were the first of the uniformed groups on the Hill. Their coming caused many changes in the campus set-up—the west wing and fourth floor of Frank Strong hall had to be requisitioned to house the men, and many offices and departments were required to shift to other places as a result.
Army Planning Christmas Show
A second army variety show, "Goldbrickers of 1943," is being planned for Tuesday, Dec. 14. The show will be presented in Hoch auditorium at 7:45, according to Stan Hagler, member of the directing committee.
Although similar in outline to "At Ease," variety show presented by the army Oct. 29, "Goldbrickers of 1943" will be made up of entirely new numbers with the single exception of a twin piano act being called back by popular demand.
A Christmas vein will run through most of the numbers, said Hagler, naming as two specialties, "White Christmas" and a take-off on "A Night Before Christmas."
Members of the planning committee are George Mahahn, Joe Williams, Ronald Hadley, Ed Markle, Joe Epstein, and Stan Hagler.
Joe Telecson, Robert Stummi,
Henry Cohn, S. Wahlers, Harry

100 Species Dinosaurs ---- Riggs
Dinosaurs lived in a period that covered millions of years and passed out of existence 55 million years ago at the time of the Rocky mountain uplift, Elmer S. Riggs, honorary curator of vertebrate paleontology of Dyche museum, explained yesterday afternoon at Green hall in the second of a series of lectures open to the public.
Dinosaurs were first discovered in North America in 1877 by a schoolteacher in the little town of Morrison, Colo., on the eastern slope of the Rockies. The first entire skeleton ever set up in a museum was put in the American museum in New York City about 1908. KM De Preuviren
KU Men Do Excavating
Mr. Riggs showed slides of the sites where he, Harry Menke, and other University of Kansas men excavated for fossil remains at the Bone Cabin Dinosaur quarry in Wyoming, the quarries near Grand Junction, Colo., and at Dinosaur National Monument quarry at Jensen, Utah.
"Nearly 100 species of dinosauras are known," Mr. RiRiggs said. Some are scarcely larger than a house cat, while others are 15 feet high. Mr. Riggs showed colored photographs of the restoration of the flesh eating dinosaurs, the duck bill dinosaurs, the horn dinosaurs, and the bird-like dinosaurs, some of which were not much larger than an os-trich.
Takes Two-Year Preparation
Estimating the cost of excavation and restoration of a dinosaur, Mr. Riggs said the one he worked on in Colorado, for Field museum cost about $25,000. It took three months for the excavation, 18 months for the preparation, and a year to mount and adjust the specimen.
He was chosen from a group of four candidates by the women casting votes on their ticket stubs. Other candidates were Robert Miller, V-12, Oakland, Calif.; Wayne Hird, College freshman, Lawrence, and Alexander French "Sandy" Banks. V-5 Pasadena, Calif.
The third of the series of lectures will be given in January by Dr. Claude W. Hibbard on the methods and techniques of field work. Further lectures may be sponsored by Dyche museum in the spring.
Fray Cooper Johns, an AST from Cleveland, Ohio, was elected and crowned pep king at the Vice Versa dance in the Union lounge Saturday night.

Giving a 10 per cent increase in deaths in Kansas from tuberculosis last year over deaths in 1941 as one of the reasons for a more intensified Christmas Seal drive on the campus this year, Miss Joe Staplerton, chairman of the student seal drive, spoke to representatives from 27 houses Saturday morning in the Pine room as the opening gun in the drive.
Houses Told Christmas Seal Drive Opened
Miss Stapleton enumerated the uses of the tuberculosis fund in Douglas county giving monthly clinics, county-wide tuberculosis testing, and supplying cod liver oil to needy children as the most important. She pointed out that if the county will permit, X-raying wives of service men who are eligible for Emergency Maternity Service will be included in the program.

INS Staff Correspondent
Cairo, (INS)President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill, Premier Joseph Stalin, and a handfull of highest political and military officials of the three great Allied powers drafted a dramatic blueprint for victory against Nazi Germany in a four-day conference at Teheran, Iran, an official announcement revealed today.
The statement disclosing the most historic meeting of the century which brought together the leaders of the United States, Britain, and the Soviet Union revealed that the Big Three have arrived at a decision to bring Hitler to his knees with the opening of a full-fledged second front.
Second Front Guaranteed
The confereses confined their talk in the four-day meeting which lasted from Sunday, Nov. 28, through Wednesday, Dec. 1. strictly to the war in Europe.
Pledge Elimination of Tyranny
Hinton to Speak on Campus Today On 'Reconstruction in Britain'
Stalin got a black and white guarantee that a second front, plus an activated third front, presumably in the Mediterranean, would be forthcoming. Blade Elimination of Taranu
"I am not on a lecture tour at present," Mr. Hinton said. "I'm on a tour of observation to find out what Americans are doing and thinking about post-war reconstruction. There's a tremendous lot of study and planning going on over here. It's more coordinated by the government than British planning is."
Two speeches will be given on the campus today by W. J. Hinton, director of studies of the British information services. At 4:30 p.m. he will meet the general public in Fraser theater to discuss British army education. He will speak to the University Club at 8 p.m. in Green hall on "Reconstruction in Britain."
Big Three Celebrate Churchill's Birthday
Pledge Elimination of a Grilling The pledge was given in solemn language and at the conclusion of the conference the official communique said:
Cairo—Reports coming from Teheran are that President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill and Stalin celebrated Churchill's 72nd birthday anniversary last Tuesday in a dinner party in which many toasts were drunk to the leaders of the three large nations. The drink?—mainly tomato juice.
"We have concerted plans for the destruction of German complete agreement on the scope and timing

Allies Step Up Attack in Italy
(International News Service)
The Allied offensive in Italy was stepped up today in tune with the decision of the Teheran conference for concerted military moves to destroy Nazi Germany.
Against the most savage resistance encountered since the landings at Salerno, troops of the Allied fifth army under Lt. Gen. Mark Clark smashed through Nazi mountain defenses after seizing three more strategic heights overlooking the Liri valley.
And on the British eighth army end of the line General Montgomery's forces shook off desperate German counterattacks and pushed up the Adriatic coast ten miles beyond the previously breached Sangro river.
(continued to page two)
In the face of unrelenting Soviet attack a huge Nazi army was reported fleeing across a 15 mile wide Dnieper river bridgehead just ahead of two Russian columns driving upon the rail junction of Zhlobim. This full scale Nazi retreat was set in motion by savage Russian thrusts along the right bank of the river
of operations which will be undertaken from the east, west, and south."
Impllying a shortened world war through relentless increasing attacks, the Triumvirate laid the ground work for a post-war family of "Democratic nations" cooperating under a guarantee to secure peace. The three pledged elimination of tyranny which would ban the "scourge and terror of war for many generations."
Teheran Set Speed, Unity Record
The harmony of the meeting was climaxed with a remarkable tribute by Stalin to the United States when he declared during the course of a dinner that without the massive American war-production the United Nations could not, or would not, have won the war.
The difficult problem of Russo-Japanese relations was deftly circumvented through the previous conclave in Cabo attended by Boosevelt, Churchill, and Gen. Chang Kai-Shek. The Russians obtained from this meeting, leaving intact the Allied plans for crushing Hitler and then Hirohito.
The meeting at Teheran set a record for speed and unity. The official announcement pointed out that not a single hitch or dispute marred the consultation and that the three principals concurred in all major decisions. They worked out specific plans and policies with key military and political delegates.
Stalin Compliments U.S.
President Roosevelt arrived at the Iranian capital at 3:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov.27, and Churchill landed an hour later. Each was taken immediately to his respective legation. In the evening the President accepted the Soviet invitation to reside at the Soviet Embassy and moved in Sunday. Although Stalin had only to cross a short distance from the Russian frontier, it marks the first time he was known to be out of the country since before the Red Revolution.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Dec.7 Means Lesson From Pearl Harbor
December 7 is not a date to forget easily.
It was two years ago tomorrow that the northern half of the western hemisphere — a pink-clouded little world all to itself, so preoccupied with climbing out of a depression it didn't know or care what was going on elsewhere on the planet—received a jolt into reality.
It was a tragic, costly reality. Three thousand men living and warm and laughing that Sunday morning lay lifeless moments later on the field at Fearl Harbor. The Niponese planes which had blackened the peaceful Hawaiian sky to rain death accomplished their mission with fiendish efficiency. The navy base was a holocaust.
People Ask Questions
Symphony listeners in the United States heard the first announcement. They couldn't believe it. But that afternoon and for days and weeks to follow, America had to make a difficult adjustment. That the adjustment was made is evident by our all-out war effort.
However, it wasn't as easy as al that. The shambles of Pearl Harbor haunted the public conscience. Questions kept rising unbidden in the public mind—questions such as why the navy base wasn't prepared to resist attack, why persons who had access to what was happening in the world didn't try to lead public opinion in cognizance of reality instead of following it into isolation, why American business found it expedient to sell scrap metal to the Japanese for war with China, and later with our own men.
War Is Bitter Price
Japan's greed for power, her overwomen pride in a glorious destiny, and teacherous, back-hand methods. It is no less an indictment of the United States' lack of foresight, isolation, and primary consideration for the Almighty Dollar.
The Japanese stand convicted, and their punishment is already being meted out to them. The United States is paying, too, by every single man killed or wounded in this war. It is a bitter price to pay. The lesson must be well learned to justify the cost, and it is up to those for whom December 7 is more than the day after December 6, to make sure it will not have to be paid again.
(continued from page one) that the purchase of Christmas Seals is not to be made coercive. Students are being asked to give only if they feel they can. Although a definite quota has not been set, the public relations committee of the student council, which is sponsoring the drive, says around $500 should be raised on the Hill this year, according to Mary Morrill, chairman.

Organized houses are being encouraged to purchase gift bonds which range in value from $5 to $25. Students living in small independent houses and service men may purchase stamps at booths which will be set up in the Union building.

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
This is the army: Its sounds just too stupid, but this is the way the story circulates among students. Prof: Leland Pritchard, now back on the Hill teaching economics, was taken into the army awhile back and given the customary aptitude tests. When it was all over, a self-satisfied army screening staff shipped the professor to California for a course in beginning economics. His first assignment was three chapters in a book he had written himself.

Why to study German: During the dinner part of the Phi Bet dinner dance Friday, Harry Jennison rose to sing his now famous revival solo, "Put a Nickel on the Drum". Boyden Crouch voiced frequent and fervent "Amens" and the number was a big success. With the party so well started, Howard Fink was encouraged to sing his German "Sailor's Song"—the moral of which is evidently questionable. After going around to every table to inquire if the girls understood German. Howard began. But he had overlooked

Elsewhere on the Soviet front Russian troops struck with unabated fury and heavy new casualties in the German lines were announced. In anticipation of the second anniversary of Pearl Harbor tomorrow, Gen. Douglas MacArthur unleashed a terrific air attack against a 50-mile stretch of the New Britain coastline. Tons of bombs were dropped on Japanese installations.

The vice-versa of getting stuck: With such admonitions as "Don't lean on this wall, flower" tacked around to discourage the Casper Milquetoasts, Jay Jane vice-versa-activities went over in a big way Saturday night at the Union. In the opinion of Hill women, the evening was "god" for the inclined-to-be-self-satisfied Hill male. In spite of good cutting every man present at one time or another experienceeled the sensation a girl gets after three uninterrupted dances with the same boy, and came to know the heart-break of having a stag look him over and then move off to another section of the floor.

Reception and Dance Open New Building Friday Night
Visitors, accompanied by military guides, will be allowed to make a tour of inspection through the new military science buildings at the grand opening to be held Friday night. Dec. 10. The public has been invited to attend a reception beginning at 8 o'clock, and to stay for the dance in the drill room from 9:30 until 12 p.m., Dr. Gilbert Ulmer, chairman, said. Music for the dance will be furnished by the ASTP dance band. Mrs. Paul B. Lawson and Miss Elizabeth Meguiar head a committee in charge of refreshments for the reception.
Although some equipment must yet be secured, military science classes have already been transferred from Fowler shops to completed rooms in the new building. The rooms serve as study halls for ASTP and A-12 units each night. The large drill hall is now being used 30 hours a week for physical conditioning classes.
Construction work on the $250-000 structure was completed in October, well ahead of schedule. Located on the south slope of Mt. Oread, the new building was made possible by federal, state and University funds.

Backward? Dance, But Not Women
So they planned, while still fair weather.
Cheerful Jay Janes got together And thought girls should have a chance
For a vice versa dance.
The girls asked boys for dances, (And I guess that was the plot.) Though the dance was really backward
The girls were surely not.
Then some girls soon borrowed money
Now because of late restrictions, And because our tires are wore, The band played, by their convictions.

Fray Johns Elected Pep King At Annual Vice-Versa Dance
Fray Cooper Johns, ASTP cheerleader from Cleveland, was elected Pep king at the Lake Jane vice-versa dance Saturday night. The army lead of ASTP trainees played for the dance which is given each year for the Jay Jane scholarship fund.
Phi Beta Pi entertained with its fall formal and Carruth hall had an informal dance Friday night. Delta Tau Delta gave its annual paddle party Saturday night.
J. B. Stouff, national field secretary of the Delta Tau Delta fraternity, visited the local chapter the first part of last week.

'Wild Bill' Cummings Promoted to Colonel
Hugh Donahue was a week end guest.
Lt. Col. William J. "Wild Bill" Cummings, Jr., student at the University in 1935, has been promoted to full colonelcy, according to a dispatch from the U. S. army eighth air force fighter station. The promotion was announced by the eighth air force fighter command headquarters in England.
Col. Cummings is the son of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Cummings, of Lawrence. He is commanding officer of a Thunderbolt group.
As a captain, he was operations officer of the 24th pursuit group, based on Clark field, when the Japs struck. He was a member of the legendary 'Bamboo fleet' which ferried supplies to Bataan, picked up marooned units of defenders, and operated a shuttle service from Mindanao to Bataan in the closing days of the peninsula campaign.
He left a Manila hospital bed with a temperature of 103 degrees from malaria to help evacuate wounded and fever-ridden patients from the city as the Japanese advanced. He headed an operational training unit in Australia for six months in 1942. For a while he was based on New Guinea.
When he returned to the United States, he was sent to the Army Air Force School of Applied Tactics at Orlando, Fla., where combat veterans were training new pilots and exchanging experiences. He was awarded the distinguished flying cross in the Philippines for a series of hazardous missions.

Approximately 550 persons have visited the popular Wiggins exhibit in Spooner-Thayer museum since it was opened to the public Nov. 1.
The oil paintings, in the north galley on second floor, will be featured through December.
Most of those who have seen the oil paintings of Sidney M. Wiggins, well-known American artist of New York City, have been residents of Lawrence. More out-of-town visitors have come from Topeka than from any place else, but a large number of those interested in the exhibit have been visiting parents of men in the army and navy units at the University. Many visitors are persons from the Sunflower Ordinance plant. On a recent Sunday, an army officer spent his time between trains in Lawrence at the museum.

MONDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1943
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Dr. F. C. (Phog) Allen really knew what he was talking about when he stated before the season began that "some of these service games may approach mayhem." To quote the good doctor's exact words: "It will be a tough, aggressive season. With the more experienced officials in military service, some of the games may approach mayhem. One reason why I expect such a trend, is that so many service teams are playing this year and the army and navy physical conditioning programs call for aggressive play on the court. There will be thrills and spills aplenty." Anyone who witnessed last Saturday's game with the Hutchinson NAS cagers will hear tily agree that Allen's latest prognosis hit the nail exactly on the head. At least it certainly did in this early-season game, but we are of the notion that if such continues to be true as the season progresses, players will most certainly have to equip themselves with blocking pads and helmets.
☆ ☆ ☆
However, if roughness and aggressiveness is what it is going to take this year, Allen will hardly be for having his boys knocked around. Although he doesn't teach dirty tactics, "Phog", however, does see that his Jayhawks learn to take care of themselves.
* *
If second-rate officiating is to be the order for this season, woe be unto these "inexperienced whistle tooters." Dr. Allen was anything but pleased in Saturday's game when instead of two charity toses being given Kansas on two consecutive technical fouls, "an official's time out" was called. It all came about when Hutchinson called for time out when Kansas had the ball. A navy player had thrown his knee out of place. All right, the time out should have been called, but KU also should have been awarded a free throw as this infraction is a technical foul in anyone's book. To make matters worse, the Hutchinson coach, Bill Hennigh, jumped out on the floor, grabbed the referee, and called for time. This was also a technical foul. What did the officials do? They merely stated that it was "an official's time out," which is impossible, and declared that Kansas could have the ball out when play was resumed.
Leavenworth Flyers Won Over Machinist's Mates
The Leavenworth Flyers, with whom the Javahawks will tangle tomorrow night in Hoch auditorium, defeated the machinist's mates here Friday night, 35 to 23. Tilberg, forward for the Flyers, paced his team to victory by throwing in 16 points.

Service Men Buy Christmas Seals
Reports from the officers in charge of stamp sales show that the service men on the campus are doing a fine job in contributing to the cause, as well as others scattered over the country.
A service man, although hundreds of miles away, remembered his home town and wrote back requesting $2.50 worth of Christmas seals, by money order. He is Sgt. Herbert C. Barker, 1132 Conn. street, now stationed in the Service Troop Tank Cavalry, Camp Lockett, Calif.
Sgt. Barker writes, "It is a pleasure to obtain these seals from the old home town, and I trust in another year the war will be over, and I can return home to carry on with you."

Hutchinson NAS Wallops Kansas In First Defeat
The Navy five built up an 11-point lead before the Jayhawkers were able to break into the scoring column. Toward the end of the first half, the Jayhawks rallied and appeared to have a chance, but the Navy hit for two long shots, and at the half the score stood 25 to 13. Hutchinson led by about a 10-point margin throughout the contest.
The Jayhawks sustained their first defeat of the infant basketball season last Saturday night when the rough and rowdy Hutchinson naval air base cagers gave them a sound 46 to 32 spanking.
Officiating Was Spotty
The game approached bedlam at times and nearly resembled a football game, as there was much bodily contact and blocking. In fact, in the confusion three or four players were on the floor diving for the ball in several instances. However, the crowd ate it up and the game was interesting and exiting from beginning to end.
The officiating was extremely spotty and in many instances violations were not called. The Hutchinson team especially got away with traveling with the ball. Also, many bodily-contact fouls went by uncalled, some of which were apparent to the crowd.
Johnson Starred Navy Team
The Hutchinson NAS team was not popular with the fans but was, nevertheless, quite colorful. Joe Trosper, midget forward from Oklahoma, was high scorer for Hutchinson with 13 points. Pike Gawthrop, who was a chief at the Machinist's Mates School here this summer, was close behind with nine. The latter is well known in Kansas circles as a star cager at Wichita U, and has made a name for himself in semi-pro baseball.
Poor at the Foul Line It was the Jayhawks inability to

At the luncheon to be prepared Thursday, Janice Brown, Kathryn Krehbiel, and Mary Franks will be hostesses.
hit their foul tosses that resulted in their taking such a decisive licking. The Navy hit 14 free throws to Kansas 6, despite the fact that both teams had nearly an equal number of shots.
Two players on each team were banished from the game via the foul route. The Hutchinson team made itself most unpopular when John Pace, formerly of Missouri U., refused to shake hands with a Kansas player when he left the game on fouls.
Sparky Went Out on Fouls
Bill Lindquist hit three remarkable long shots for Kansas and his stellar floor work warranted much praise. Don "Duck" Barrington, was a work horse under the basket and he came up with rebounds time after time. Had it not been for Don, the game probably would have been a walk away.
Little Dean Corder was in there battling all the way, and despite his youth and size, he often came out with the ball. The Jayhawks were hard hit when Captain "Sparky" McSpadden went out on fouls shortly after the half.

Dinzeo and Cassidy Machinist's Mates, Will Box in Oklahoma
Dinzeo recently was the heavyweight title winner at the naval base in Farragut, Idaho. He has had 60 amateur ring bouts, winning all but five.
Dinzeo is under the training direction of Chief Specialist Hayes, formerly coach of the Cedar Rapids Gazette Golden Gloves champions in the Chicago tournament.
Boxing, though not a campus sport, will carry the colors of the University when M. J. Dinzee, 180-pound machinist's mate, meets a representative of Oklahoma City in the Municipal auditorium at Kansas City, Mo., Monday.
Another campus star, Mike Cassidy, middleweight, who is undefeated in 17 bouts, will accompany Dinzeo to meet a Kansas City contender. He has scored five knock-outs in his ring career.
Naming Dinzeo to the heavyweight post adds to the seasoning and balance of the eight-man team which will oppose Oklahoma. Both Dinzeo and Cassidy are scheduled to leave the campus, however, at the end of the month, and their Monday appearance will be their last here.

Allies Strike Hard On Anniversary Of Pearl Harbor
(International News Service)
(International News Service)
The second anniversary of Pearl Harbor found the United Nations on a violent offensive against the Japanese and Germans in far-flung theaters of combat today.
In the Central and Southwest Pacific, in Italy, and on the vast battle line in Soviet Russia, the enemy was attacked in ever-increasing force, with military action shaping up to make good the promises and commitments of the conferences recently coulided in Cairo and Teheran.
Rumor Says Meeting With Ononu The Pearl Harbor anniversary found the United States fleet so vastly strengthened that a sortie was undertaken against the Marshall islands in the Central Pacific 400 miles northwest of the recently captured Gilberts, by a carrier task force. Tokyo admitted the aerial enslaughter, claiming that 20 out of 100 American planes had been shot down.

K.U. Calendar Staff Appointed
Five appointees to the staff of the 1944 University Calendar were announced today by Beverly Bohan, editor. They are Betty Lou Perkins, business manager; Mary Olive Marshall, photographic editor; Bob Noll, circulation manager; Mignon Morton and Ruth Richards, secretaries.
"The past few days we have been completing arrangements for the printing and second binding of this year's calendar." Miss Bohan said. "We can promise that the calendar will come out before the first of the year."
The film includes scenes taken in training camps, on maneuvers, and in actual battle. An outstanding point of the film is the sequence of recent army and navy motion pictures taken of an invasion in the southwest Pacific and the establishment of a beechhead.
The University Press under the direction of T. C. Ryther will print the calendar, and the Western Bindery company of Topeka will do the binding.
"Radio at War," a 24-minute sound film portraying the part communications are playing in World War II, will be available to schools, colleges, and civic organizations about Jan. 1. The picture is sponsored by Radio Corporation of America in cooperation with the communications branches of the army and navy.

Honorable Enemy to Be Revenged
By Martha Jean Johnson
"Japs Attack Pearl Harbor" . . . a headline of Dec. 7, two years ago. Imperialistic headquarters in Tokyo announced that a state of war existed between Japan and the United States and Great Britain. Before the declaration reached Washington by air or cable, Japan, in one of the most infamous assaults of all time, made a sneak attack on Hawaii, the Philippines, Guam, and the American possessions in the Pacific.
Pearl Harbor was left burning, blackened, razed. In the bay, the battleship Arizona, and the target ship Utah were bombed until irreparibly damaged. Japanese parachute troops landed in the Philippines. Guam was raided repeatedly by squadrons of Japanese planes. The casualties for that one day were listed as 2,340 killed, 946 wounded.
A year ago today, Dec. 7 was not so exciting. There were no flaming headlines announcing shocking treachery to the world. War had been declared on Japan a year ago. The army officials were worried. A year had passed, and, in spite of the valuable experience gained, there had been little progress.
Today is the second "anniversary" of Dec. 7. American forces are beginning to get somewhere after two years of fighting in the Pacific. The Japanese have reason to regret their perfidy. The Japanese officials can no longer propagandize the people in telling them that the Americans are soft and weak, that they will crumble easily under a superior offensive. The Americans have been met in actual combat and many Japanese killed. The Japanese should realize by now that the American people will not stop fighting until Dec. 7, 1941 is revenged.
Court Denies Kansas Waters of Arkansas
Washington, (INS) — The state of Colorado won a complete victory yesterday in the Supreme Court in a dispute with Kansas over a diversion of water of the Arkansas river for irrigation purposes.
The special master had recommended a division of water, proposing to award 925,000 acres to Colorado and 185,000 to Kansas. Rejecting this, the court said Kansas had not proved she was entitled to it.
The high court enjoined the Finney County Water Users Association, Kansas, from further prosecuting a suit against Colorado.
The controversy involved use of water for irrigation in Western Kansas counties and in Central Colorado from Canyon City to the state line.
Booths for selling Christmas seals to the Navy men were set up in the Union building today. Virginia Rader, College junior, is in charge of the sales. No reports have been turned in yet on the amount of seals sold. Miss Joie Stapleton, chairman of the student drive, said.

Current Events Argued Weekly By British Army
American soldiers, members of the University ASTP unit, formed a large part of the audience that filled Fraser theater yesterday afternoon to hear Dr. W. J. Hinton, director of studies in the British Information Services, discuss the educational program for British soldiers stationed at home and abroad. Dr Bert A. Nash, professor of education, introduced the speaker.
In September, 1941, Dr. Hinton related, the British Army Council decided that some scheme was needed whereby the growing demand among British service men for a clearer knowledge about current affairs and national issues might be satisfied. The result was the establishment of the Army Bureau of Current Affairs (the A.B.C.A.), whose function it is to provide soldiers during working or training hours, instruction and discussion about the outstanding and vital problems of the day.
Platoons Meet Every Week
"This experiment, which is probably the greatest educational venture of the war, has been fully justified by its results," said Dr. Hinton. He remarked that it was paradoxical that a country as "conservative" as his should attempt anything so revolutionary as setting aside precious hours in which to tell soldiers what they were fighting for, and to enable them to study other matters which would make them
The meeting was the first in the clubs new bi-monthly schedule. The group will meet next on Jan. 3.

Naval Training Will Continue In Fowler Shops
The transition of the University naval training program from machinist's mates to electricians' mates announced yesterday by naval authorities, will involve no great physical changes at the University, Chancellor Deane W. Malott announced today. Fowler shops which have been the chief base of operations for the machinist's mates will continue to be used in the naval training program, and new electrical laboratories will be installed in the space vacated by the army personnel when the move into the new military science building is effected.
Bench work necessary in the training will be continued in Fowler shops as before. Lathe work, an essential part of the machinist's mates training, will be discontinued, but Fowler shops will be used as usual by the mechanical engineering students in the School of Engineering at the University as it has since the beginning of the school for machinist's mates.
Much of the instruction in the new program will be given in the electrical engineering laboratories of the engine school, the Chancellor's office said, particularly in the field of alternating and direct currents.
There will be a few personnel changes occasioned by the shift, Chancellor Malott said. Dr. V. P. Hessler, chairman of the department of electrical engineering, will be in charge of the University's administration of the program.
Ens. William W. McCrum 22, of Kansas City, Mo., former student of the University, and a member of Kappa Sigma fraternity, was one of three naval aviation men burned to death Saturday in a collision of motor cars at Talatka, Fla.
Ensign McCrum Dies In Collision in Florida
The body is being brought to the home of the parents, Mr. and Mrs.

The relationship between men and women in business and the home is altered irrevocably during this war. The lord and master of the home will return from the present conflict to find his erstwhile domestic spouse an esteemed riveter in an aircraft plant, soaking away more quid weekly in her rayon hose than he used to place in the family coffers for nightly.
In assuming an increasingly larger role in what was once called "a man's world," women have struck out on their own to gain new independence. It is true that many of the women employed in essential industry will leave their jobs the instant their men return, but a taste of freedom and self-sufficiency has probably left its mark on the most ardent believers in their place in the home.
Men trained for army life will come back to find their old technical jobs taken over by women who not many months before their specialized training, ankle-socked their way over the American campuses as typical coeds. And the disgusting aspect, from the male point of view, is that the little thing with the wispy bangs and round blue eyes is just as good at figuring tensile strength as he was.
It is not likely that the actual number of women remaining in industry after the war will create a serious problem of unemployment for demobilized soldiers. However, the change in the status of women in the business world has been affected surely and tangibly.
Barriers against women have been broken down in almost every field. Lipstick and unswept hairdirs are at home in the factory, the office, the laboratory. The future of the career woman looks very bright if individual ability and training will determine the status of the individual after the war.

PT life is just the sober side: Jack Jarvis, Sigma Nu, and Leonard Brown, alarmed their brethren of PT3 by suddenly becoming fired with ambition to be officers. The excitement died down, however, when the topic of a Naval organization lecture became generally known. The fellows had just learned in the aforementioned class that officers at sea are getting two quarts of whiskey a week.

Not a nurse's aide in the house: Splurging during a brief interlude between football and basketball seasons, Charlie Moffett, Delt man of iron, sat in his room and polished off 10 cigarettes and a black cigar. After approximately two years of abstinence, the debauchery was too much, and Moffett lost consciousness. Fellow Delta's hadn't the slightest idea what to do so, they took a stab in the dark and threw water, but they took a chance with the dash of cold water. Moffett promptly began to have convulsions. When the human windmill of arms and legs quieted down a little, the Delts lugged the body of their ailing brother to Watkins hospital, where, after customary treatment for nicotine poisoning, he quickly recovered
Air-WACs Serve Air Fields
Air-WACs are women who enlist in the Women's Army Corps specifically to serve with the army air forces. They receive technical training for a post with the AAF and are assigned to air fields or bases.
When Bill Munday, K.U. Beta, in the navy medic program in Kansas City, asked for his check at Martin's on the Plaza, there was a little delay. As finally delivered, the check had the name and telephone number of every waitress in the place scribbed on the back.

At least 50 service men attended the second tea dance given by the Union Activities committee last Saturday afternoon, Joanne Johnson, chairman of the committee, estimated.
Second Tea Dance Brings Larger Crowd
"We were well pleased with the number that attended, and from its success we are encouraged to continue having the dances every Saturday afternoon," Miss Johnson said. "It was stetty a 'girl-cut' affair, and there were enough women for almost everyone to dance all the time."
"The Navy outnumbered the Army last Saturday, but we hope the Army will be as well represented next time," urged Miss Johnson. "We want all the service men to feel welcome."

ALLIES---the "COLLEGE JEWELER"
(continued from page one) even an impressive diplomatic answer to the conference at Teheran, there were persistent reports in London of another meeting expected to increase Turkish aid on the side of the Allies. These rumors said that Mr. Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill had met with President Onoura of Turkey following the Teheran session, and that momentous developments might be expected to result.
British Eighth Crosses Moro
And while these diplomatic successes piled up for the Allied cause the German military situation deteriorated. Lt. Gen. Mark W. Clark's fifth army in Italy seized control of the major sections of the months Camino and Maggiore ridges. Enemy forces continued to offer stauunch resistance and counter-attacks.
The British eighth army on the Adriatic end of the line crossed the swollen Moro river only 12 miles below Pescara and hurled armored units against the Germans in the vicinity of San Leonardo. Russians Gain in All Sectors
Despite the rainy weather, bombers of the North African air force blasted Nazi occupied airdromes just outside of Athens, and targets upon the Italian mainland were blasted in support of the land action.
On the Russian front, Soviet troops cut the Smela-Znanenk rail line, splitting huge forces in the Ukraine and threatening them with envelopment. The Russians moved forward despite strong enemy re-resistance and gained on all sectors.
United States air, land, and sea forces lashed out against the Japanese over a wide area. In addition to the Marshal attack, Gen. Douglas MacArthur's jungle fighters pressed ahead in Bougainville, last Japanese stronghold in the Solomons. American heavy bombers simultaneously attacked Japanese bases and garrisons on New Britain Island while enemy airfields at Rabaul were set on fire.
CURRENT EVENTS--the "COLLEGE JEWELER"

After the ceremony, a bridal dinner was given at the William Penn hotel in Pittsburgh, Pa.
The bride wore a light blue afternoon dress with fuchsia accessories and a corsage of orchids. She carried a Theta prayer book.
The parents of both the bride and the groom attended the ceremony. Tom Gideon, who is also stationed in Washington, Pa., was best man.

these discussions is provided by two bulletins—"War" and "Current Affairs" which are issued on alternate weeks. "War" provides general military intelligence from all theaters of operation. Men fighting in jungle sectors receive bulletins devoted to bettering their understanding of jugle fighting, for example. "Current Affairs" is written to a large extent by civilians. The pamphlets are written objectively, striving to make the soldiers think for themselves after the facts have been presented.
Men Respond Enthusiastically
"The men have in most cases responded enthusiastically," reported Dr. Hinton, "for they see in the A.B.C.A. the ideal opportunity of discussing as citizens what they fight for as soldiers." He pointed out that there are no civics classes in British secondary schools and that this is the first time many of the men have had an opportunity to study their government.
Platoon commanders give a brief outline of the subject featured in the week's pamphlet, talking for no longer than 20 minutes. Then follows a completely informal discussion period over which the platoon commanders preside as chairmen.
"British soldiers are also vitally interested in Russia and in the United States," he added. "They welcome all information they can get on these two nations."
100 Visit Nursery For Open House
More than 100 persons visited the University Nursery School, 1100 Missouri street. Sunday afternoon at the invitation of the home economics department, which supervises the nursery school. The purpose of the open house, according to Miss Edna A. Hill, professor of home economics, was to acquaint people with the function of the school, which cares for children from 3 to 5 years of age while their mothers work.
The nursery school is a combined university and federal project.
Lawson Speaks at Tonganoxie High
Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, made three speeches at Tonganoxie High School today. He spoke to the senior class, to the biology class, and to a special assembly celebrating Pearl Harbor Day. The students have been saving money to buy a bomber, and today ends the drive.
Asks Impeachment Of Knox, Stimson
Washington, (INS)—Senator Bennett Clark (Dem.) Mo., called for impeachment of Secretary of Navy, Knox and Secretary of War Stimson today unless they bring charges before nightfall against army and navy commanders at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941.
Washington, (INS)—The House today approved and sent to the White House a bill extending for six months the time in which Maj. Gen. Walter C. Short and Admiral Husband E. Kimmel may be arraigned on charges that they failed in their duties in the Jap attack on Pearl Harbor.
The occasion for the outburst was presentation of a house bill extending until one year after peace the statutory limit which the two high military leaders may be brought to trial.

Jayhawkers Ready for Comeback By Opposing Leavenworth Flyers
The Jayhawks will try to get back on the winning trail tonight as they take on their third consecutive service foe, the Ft. Leavenworth Flyers, at 7:30 in Hoch auditorium.
Many of the men from Ft. Leavenworth are former college stars and present a fast quintet of good ball handlers. Included in the starting lineup for the soldiers are Marvin Ryden, Pittsburgh State Teachers' College, center; George Morse, Marquette University, and Alden Tilberg, Bethany College, Kansas, forward; and John McIntire of Peru State Teachers' College, Peru, Neb., and Dewey Carr, of North Texas State Teachers, Denton, Texas, guards.
The Flyers will present a rolling type of offense intended to flatten their rival's defense and allowing open shots from in front of the basket. Their main offensive hope rests in the person of Sgt. Alden Tilberg, forward, who has scored 32 points in leading his team to victories over the K. U. Machinist Mate's 35 to 23, and the K. C. Geneva Chestnut Inns, an independent team, 57 to 33.
Like Hutchinson NAS, Ft. Leavenworth plays an independent or "town team" type of ball. To put more weight and power on the floor Dr. Allen has inserted husky Don Diehl, Smith Center, into his starting lineup. Dr. Allen hopes that by having Diehl coupled with Don Barrington, Kansas can take care of the rebound situation.
After tonight's game the Jayhawkers will journey to Topeka to meet Washburn Friday night, and to Kansas City Saturday where they will appear as the feature of a triple-header in the Municipal auditorium, against Rockhurst College. A return engagement with Rockhurst will be played here the following Monday night. This intensive series of non-conference and service men's games all are primarily aimed to get the Jayhawkers prepared to defend their Big Six crown when they open their conference season against Missouri early in January.
The officials will be Chalmer Woodard, Southwestern, and Nick Biscotte, Villanova. The former was the coach of this year's championship Lawrence High football team

Repairs on Blake Hall Halted Once Again
Repairs on the roof of Blake hall have once again been halted and cannot be resumed until new tile is obtained from Coffeyville, University officials have stated. Little work has been done the past few weeks on the repairs which were started early last fall when it was noticed that the tar paper and tile had been ruined by wind, hail, and rainstorms.
The difficulty of finding tile to match that already on the roof has also slowed the work which was made possible by an appropriation of $5,000 by the state legislature.
Marvin Sets Deadline To Get Jayhawker
Students with subscriptions to the 1944 Jayhawker should call for the first issue of the magazine by the end of this week. Janet Marvin, editor, has announced. Beginning Monday copies will be sold singly and to new subscribers until the supply is exhausted.
Jayhawkers may be obtained between 2 and 5 p.m. any weekday in the Jayhawk office in the subbasement of the Union building, Miss Marvin said.
Ens. Gerald Tewell Returns on Leave
Ens. Gerald A. Tewell, who received the bachelor degree in business last spring, and who is serving aboard a cruiser, visited on the campus this week. After completing naval training courses at Northwestern University, he was trained in bomb disposal work at American University in Washington, D.C.
While he attended the University, Ens. Tewell was employed as a printer and pressman by the University of Kansas press and helped print the Daily Kansan.
Psychologists to Meet Monthly
Psi Chi and the Psychology Club, at a joint organization meeting yesterday, decided to meet once a month instead of every two weeks as they have formerly. The next meeting will be after the holidays. Mary Margaret Reynolds, Judith Schwade, and Alice Goff were appointed to plan the program for January.
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Jack Copeland, of the Wichita Beacon, recently stated that in normal times, Dr. Allen would have hit the sports pages at least five times with higher goals, longer quarters, or shorter trips. But, he adds, the war has caused the nation's No. 1 basketball coach to go into hiding, at least as far as revolutionary ideas in basketball are concerned.
- * *
Well, maybe it's better, for Phog's present "down to earth" statements, such as his view that this war-time season will be "wild and woolly," seems to us a lot more sensible than his normal revolutionary brainstorms that "big time college football is doomed," that the baskets should be raised to 12 feet lest the tall "goons" take over the game, etc.
Concerning the last point, the current issue of Esquire Magazine presents in its sports poll the fans' opinion as to whether they would favor the raising of the basket from 10 to 12 feet for the purpose of preventing these human skyscrapers from blocking shots. The public did vote "yes" to the tune of 52 per cent but apparently were entirely ignorant of one of the most important points. That is that the structural limitations of high school and smaller college gyms and field houses is such that the change would be very nigh impossible. Higher baskets would call for building alterations with pain to the taxpayers, especially in rural districts where high school basketball is considered one of the essentials of the American way of life.
* *
A
Fifty-four per cent of the sports-casters questioned in the survey voted "no," while 63 per cent of the sports editors were of the negative opinion. Most of the big cage coaches were opposed to Dr. Allen's suggestion with the general opinion that the terrific total cost of raising the baskets would offset greatly any advantage derived thereof. The opinion of one of these "goal tenders" was that the 12-foot basket would be farther away than ever for the little fellows and their chances of making rebounds would be slimmer than ever. In most high school gyms, if the basket were raised to 12 feet, players would be unable to get any trajectory at all, and, according to one expert, scoring would be cut at least 15 per cent. Some sports editors were even of the opinion that fans got a big kick out of seeing these cage giants bat the ball out of the basket.

20th Christmas Vespers Program To Be Presented in Hoch Sunday; Four Tableaux Will Be Featured
Four tableaux arranged and designed by the departments of drawing and painting, and of design will be an outstanding feature of the annual Christmas Vespers to be given at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon in Hoch auditorium. D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, said today. Karl Mattern, of the department of drawing and painting, and Tom D. Jones, of the department of design, are in charge of the tableaux.
The first of the tableaux will be a depiction of "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing." A "Desert Christmas"—a Navajo shepherd Christmas in the great Southwest—will be presented in the second tableau. Characters will be students from Haskell Institute.
Elaborate Program Arranged
Emborra
The third tableau will be "Toy Christmas," inspired by the famous "Nutracker Suite" (Tschaikowsky). The final scene, with service men providing the background, is entitled, "That There May Be—Peace on Earth."
The 20th Christmas Vespers program, to be presented Sunday, is one of the most elaborate ever arranged, Dean Swarthout said. Carols will be played from the

The Board of Regents has signed the contract for improvements to the municipal airport. They did not approve the original contract, and a change had to be made before they signed. As the contract now reads the $6,000 donated by the University will be spent to build a hangar which will become a part of the real estate, thus belonging to the University. Formerly the $6,000 was to be spent on new runways.
Municipal Airport Contract Is Signed
The contract has yet to be signed by William A. Ong, third party to the contract and leasee of the airport. The Lawrence city council voted to accept the change Monday.

U.S. Escort Vessel Named O'Flaherty For KU War-Victim
Ens. Frank O'Flaherty, student at the University from 1938 to 1940, will be honored posthumously on Dec. 14 when the USS O'Flaherty, new destroyer escort vessel, will be christened by Ens. Lavada M. O-'Flaherty of the Navy Nurse Corps, sister of the former University student who lost his life in the battle of Midway.
Holder of the Navy Cross, the American Defense Service medal, and the Purple Heart, Ensign O'Flaherty was born in Tonepah, Nev., and attended the University from 1938 until the fall of 1940 when he entered the naval reserve. He received his training at the Naval Reserve Aviation base at Fairfax municipal airport in Kansas City, Kansas, and after becoming a naval cadet in 1941, was stationed at Pensacola and Miami. O'Flaherty was commissioned an ensign in 1941 and was stationed at San Diego when the United States entered the war. He was ordered to active duty in an air unit attached to a carrier
Ensign O'Flaberty's sister is stationed at the navy base hospital at Norman, Okla.

Roosevelt, Churchill, Inonu Unite Three Nations in Talk at Cairo; Americans Take Strategic Camino
(International News Service)
Shortly after President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill and Turkey President Ismet Inoui completed their Cairo talk, which found all three of their countries in "closest unity," the American fifth army smashed forward on the western portion of the Trans-Italian battlefront to capture the strategic summit of Mt. Camino. In their drive the Yanks occupied several villages and all of the rogged Massif mountain.
Second Gadfly Appeared Today
The second issue of the Gadfly, self-titled "student paper of liberal opinion on social problems," appeared today, bearing two editorials and an explanation of the Gadfly's policies.
"Realizing that the liberals on the campus had no articulate means of expressing themselves, the editors seek to provide this means," the article explained. "The Gadfly has as its purpose to present the liberal side of issues involving not only the University, but also the world at large."
The longer of the two editorials, called "Reflections," concerned the celebration of the anniversary of Pearl harbor.
The other editorial, "Profit or Loss," discussed Bill 13 of the ASC in which the legal jurisdiction over the Book Exchange was transferred. The Gadfly pointed out "the inconsistency of the bill itself," while approving the general attitude of the ASC on a book exchange.
Readers of the Gadfly were asked to sign and mail in a ballot stating, "I believe that the Board of Regents' ban against Japanese-American students at state institutions should be lifted—immediately."

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Nazi Army Expected To Give Up First
After receiving a beating this month which was five times worse than any London ever experienced, Berlin takes its place alongside devastated Hamburg and still the German morale does not crack.
The German people, once told by Goebbels that they would never be bombed, must be getting a little skeptical now. Certainly the Germans at the beginning of the war had no idea that in one night's raid over Berlin 10,000 out of 5,000,000 persons would be killed or injured. It must have been a new thing to have their government admit that "a very large number are injured or dead."
People's Morale Is Low
Germans who have lived under the swastika and are now out of Germany say that again it must be the military units which start the beginning of the end. They concede that the morale of the people is low, but they insist that severe military defeat must be suffered before the army will become dissatisfied and turn against the government.
Nazi officials constantly try to prevent lowered civilian morale affecting soldiers and also guard against soldiers talking about military subjects when they are home on furlough.
Military Defeat Is Necessary
The Allies undoubtedly would prefer that the defeat of Germany come through second front propaganda rather than actual attack. But the German armies at present are holding their own well enough to discount their devastated home front. Only by decisive military defeat on vitally important ground will the German armies be made to realize the game is up.
It now looks as if the Allies will invade Europe from England in the late spring or early summer of 1944, and if they can force the enemy back in a decisive battle during the summer, the German army will crack. J.S.
Two of Faculty Go To Board Meeting

F. L. Logan Enlists In Naval Reserve
Forrest Lee Logan, student at the University in 1943, and son of Dr. and Mrs. F. F. Logan, Hutchinson, has enlisted at the Kansas City naval aviation cadet selection board as an apprentice seaman, V-5, in the United States Naval Reserve.
When Logan becomes 18 he will be transferred to class V-5, naval aviation cadet, and will begin training leading to a commission as a flying officer in the Naval Reserve or the Marine Corps Reserve. Before his transfer he may receive a year of college training at the Navy's expense, according to a report received from Lt. Theodore M. O'Leary, Kansas City Naval Aviation Cadet Selection Board.
Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
Accidents will happen: Hanna Hedrick is still blushing as only she can at the thought of a recent week end when Steve Phelps, Phi Delt and army medic, came to visit her in Newton. One night Hanna thought she heard a crash in Steve's room and hurried in to see if she could be of any assistance. Well through the doorway, she encountered Steve sans all but a pair of striped shorts. He had dropped his shoes.

Fraternal Love: The fellows at the Phi Gam house told Nelson May they were letting him in on a big secret—the pinning of Vic Costello. Nelson dressed up in his best suit for the occasion and said strengthening things to his supposedly nervous friend.
At dinner Mark Costello rose and started off with the customary facts about his "brother". Nelson gave Vic an encouraging pat and listened rapturiously up to the last sentence when Mark announced the engagement of "fraternity brother Nelson May to Mary Tudor Hanna."
Nelson rose to denounce the statement, but was pushed roughly down in his seat while the crowd cheered. After dinner, May, desperate but helpless, was dragged to the Gamma Phi house where Betty Jo O'Neal, impersonating Mary Tudor, tripped down the steps and blotted a pair of cupid brow lips on the thrashing Phi
Premier Smuts Hopes End of War in Year
Cairo, (INS) — Fervent hope that the war in Europe will end next year was voiced today by Premier Jan Christian Smuts of South Africa in the wake of the latest in a series of international conferences which cemented Turkey's friendship with the Allied Nations.
Premier Smuts arrived in Cairo last night and dined with President Roosevelt as supplement conferences bearing upon the Tri-Partitie meeting went forward in Cairo.
As he spoke, official disclosure was made that Prime Minister Churchill and Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden of Britain had met with the Kings of Greece and Yugoslavia who are now living in exile in Cairo.

Gam. Then the rest of the Gamma Phis started in.
He couldn't have put it in his laundry anyway: Mary Tudor Hanna being a town girl, knew nothing of her mock pinning until it was over. At Monday night dinner the remains were presented to her: a once white handkerchief, property of the abused Nelson. In ink, over a blur of red smudges the Phi Gams had inscribed, "here lies the remains of the lipstick of your sisters in the bond, who on Dec. 5, 1943, smoored Nelson with a passion unknown in civilized society."
Budding Morgenthaus: Ruth Krebhiel and Esther Bord find themselves prostrate as far as their financial status is concerned. They have been in this state since the vice-versa party when they entertained Jack Coulter and Tom Mangen. Esther and Ruth planned the evening as a walking, coke-drinking debauch, but the boys refused to abide by the budget. They hailed cabs for every intermission and ate hamburgers like popcorn.
To keep from being taken to the county jail instead of back to Corbin at the end of the evening, Ruth had to part with her last coin, a Canadian dollar lucky piece.

Resents FCC Chairman's Assertion Washington, (INS) — Niles Trammell, president of the National Broadcasting Company characterized today as "an insult to the entire industry the assertion of James L. Fly, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, that the National Association of Broadcasters is a "soooge" for big networks.

He declared that self-regulation of the broadcast industry, and not bureaucratic edict, should control radio programs.
Alice McDonnell, president, announced the following program committee: Laura Belle Moore, chairman; Marjorie Shryock, Ted Shmann, and Juanita Bowman.
Resents FCC Chairman's Assertion
Freighter Is Named For Dyche
The late Prof. Lewis Lindsey Dyche was recently commemorated by the launching of a Liberty freighter which carries his name. The ship was the 300th to go "down the ways."
Professor Dyche, for whom the Dyche Museum of Natural History was named, became curator of mammals and professor of systematic zoology at the University in 1903. His dreams and plans for a museum became a reality when the building was completed in 1902 at the cost of $75,000. The same building was rebuilt in 1941.
Professor Dyche was widely known in Kansas as a professor of natural history at the University, and he was internationally known as the rescuer of Commander Robert E. Peary, the Arctic explorer. In 1895 Professor Dyche accompanied Emil Diebitsch, Peary's brother-in-law, into the North to bring back the stranded Peary. A year later he returned to the Arctic to make collections, which are now exhibited in the museum.

Republican Leaders May 'Draft Dewey'
New York, (INS)—A strong draft Dewey movement for the republican nomination next year appeared in the making today. First, former governor Alf Landon of Kansas, GOP standard bearer in 1936, termed Dewey the "outstanding candidate" for the nomination. Then today former-president Herbert Hoover laid down qualifications seemingly tailor-made for the former racket-buster. Chief of these was a tentative rejection of proposals that both Republicans and Democrats endorsed blindly the new Deal foreign policy.

Kansans Must Pay Taxes by Dec. 20
Topeka, (INS)—With Dec. 20 the final date for Kansas citizens to pay their real estate and personal property taxes and with a new law requiring the sheriff to go after delinquents immediately, officials are sending out warnings that delays will be costly.

Cagers Defeat Leavenworth In Belated Rally
After an extremely slow start, the Jayhawks finally came from behind to win over the Ft. Leavenworth Flyers in Hoch auditorium last night, 31 to 27. They trailed 11 to 18 at halftime.
Fourteen minutes went by before Kansas could find the hoop for a field goal in the first half. Everyone on the Kansas team played ragged ball throughout the first half and even Captain Sparky McSpadden, veteran of the Allen system, was caught traveling with the ball on three occasions. The passing was poor, the shooting was off, and the defense was lacking, and according to Dr. Allen one of "the most disgusting 20 minutes of basketball" he had ever seen.
Peped For Second Half
However, the good doctor fired his boys up at the intermission and it was a different Kansas team that took the floor for the second half. The Flyers were unable to count a field goal in the last ten minutes of play. The inspired Jayhawks tied it all up with only a few minutes remaining as McSpadden pushed in a long shot and Diehl followed in a rebound.
McSpadden's 10 points were high for Kansas, followed by Barrington with seven, and Corder with six.
Free Throws Aid Soldiers
Tilberg tossed in eight points for the soldiers with Ryden contributing seven. It was the Flyer's accuracy at the free throw line that made the game as close as it was, for the soldiers hit 13 to Kansas' 7.
The Jayhawk's next home game will be here next Monday with Rockhurst. Kansas will play Washburn at Topeka Friday night and Rockhurst at Kansas City Saturday night.

under a plan similar to that which saw Portugal permit Britain the use of Azore facilities.
The Yugoslav Army of Liberty said the German High Command had launched a grand scale offensive to retake partisan-held territory of Yugoslavia. Apparently fearing an early thrust by the Allies against this Balkan country, the Nazi brought forces from Albania, Greece and Austria to bolster their occupation troops.
MacArthur Raids New Britain
The Russian front was marked by Soviet successes and reverses. While two Red army columns drove closer to the rail junction of Znamenka, fierce tank and infantry battles raged west of Kiev. The Germans, who drove the Russians out of several occupied localities in their new offensive hurled more than one thousand tanks against the Red army.
In the Southwest Pacific, fighting slackened in the Bougainville front but Gen. Douglas MacArthur's airmen sent another smashing raid upon the airdrome on New Britain island.
From the Sidelines By Bob Rock Kansan Sports Editor
By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Dr. F. C. Allen doesn't care if his Jayhawk cagers don't play their return game with the Hutchinson NAS team which is scheduled to be played at Hutchinson, Jan. 24. If the game were to be called off, so much the better, for Allen didn't care for their unsportsmanlike tactics. It was "just plain muckerism" as he termed it, for a group of old veterans who, thinking themselves past masters of the game, tried to take advantage of a team of "inexperienced college kids." All Allen could have wished for, he claimed, to have his last year's team play Hutchinson. The way he put it, Ray Evans, Charley Black and Co. would hardly have stood for such treatment and the Hutchinson gobs would have been hanging from the rafters.
Nevertheless, the Hutchinson game was far more interesting and exciting than last night's dull affair. Maybe the Navy did make the Jayhawks mad, but Kansas did play a whale of a lot better ball against Hutchinson than they did against Ft. Leavenworth. They at least had a little of that "Kansas spirit" that was entirely lacking last night.
Hutchinson had a seasoned veteran at every spot while Ft. Leavenworth had little or nothing on the ball. Take away Ryden, a good rebounder from Pittsburg, and Tillberg, a good shot but a poor floor man and dribbler, and the soldiers would hardly have been out of the class of a high school five. Yet the Jayhawks had as much difficulty the entire first half with the latter despite the fact that they were a vastly superior team. Also, except for an exciting finish, last night's game was far less interesting to the spectators than last Saturday's game which at least had some thrills and color. Maybe the bouncing around the sailors gave Kansas at least inspired them to fight. Anyhow, if there are any more ordeals like last nights, Kansas fans may begin to wonder.

Student Court Lacks Jurisdiction In Traffic Cases Except on Appeal Council Told; Miller Chosen Clerk
The student court has no jurisdiction in campus parking cases except on appeal, or after a fourth offense, the All-Student Council was informed yesterday by an investigating committee.
The warning, which is issued for a first violation, and any subsequent fines for the following four offenses are all handled through the University office. Any case that is a fifth offense, however, is turned over to the court which also takes care of any appeals from previous fines. Several Cases Await Action
Several cases Considerable confusion has resulted from ignorance of the court's constitutional rights and duties, according to Peggy Davis, council president, who says there are several cases now on file awaiting court action.
Miss Davis, as president of the council has the responsibility of seeing that all violators subject to the court's jurisdiction appear before the court at the appointed time. She may, however, appoint someone else to act as prosecutor.
Just ces Sworn in Yesterday
Richard D. Miller, senior in Engineering, was selected clerk of the court in its session yesterday and arrangements were made for the court to be in session at 2:30 Wednesday in the court room of Green hall.
Justices of the court were sworn into office by Miss Davis yesterday. They include Arnold Weidman, law senior, chief justice; John Anderson, law '45; John Scurlock, law '45; Virginia Schaeffer, College '45; Persis Snook, College '45; Comora MacGregor, second year law.
Holiday Plans Made For Service Men Remaining at K.U.
Tentative plans for the entertainment of the Army and Navy men who must remain on the campus during the Christmas vacation season include a basketball game, a Christmas party, and an open house at the Union building, stated Allen Craton, chairman of the committee for entertainment.
"As the plans are now," Mr. Crafton said, "a basketball game between the Army and the Navy will be played early in the evening of Dec. 24. After the game a Christmas party will be given at the Union building. A Christmas tree, presents, Santa Claus, and all the things that go with such parties will fill the evening.
"The Union building will have open house Sunday afternoon, and refreshments will be served to all the service men. In cooperation with the University and military officials, a dance will be given in (the Community building Christmas night."
Christmas packages should be in the mail tomorrow.
Army Men May Not Go To Public Assemblies
Upon recommendation of medical authorities, attendance at moving picture theaters and other places of public assembly in Lawrence by members of the ASTP units is unauthorized until further orders.
Bulgaria May Sue for Peace
Bulgaria teetered on the brink between a hopeless war and a negotiated peace today.
Reports received in London told of an emergency meeting of the Eulgarian cabinet and parliament while noisy crowds paraded in the streets of Sofia demanding immediate withdrawal from the conflict.
Bulgaria is sealed by censorship but the flood of dispatches reaching London indicated a strong possibility that she may sue for peace, as she did in 1918, and again become the first warring nation under German control to break away from the central European power which twice in a quarter century provoked war upon the world.
Christmas Seal Drive Started
The campus Christmas seal drive has reached the $150 mark with only three organized houses reporting so far. Miss Joie Stapleton, chairman of the student seal drive, announced this morning. Chi Omega reported first with a purchase of a $25 gift bond. Battenfeld hall purchased a $10 gift bond; the Beta's reported a $5 bond.
Virginia Rader, College junior, is in charge of stamp sales at a booth for Navy men in the Student Union building. The booth is open every noon. Maxine Jones, chairman of the cafeteria booth, reported that the stamp sale to civilians has been good.
Upon completion of his course in OCS, Honorato Echavez of Baltimore, Md., received his commission as a second lieutenant in the infantry at Fort Benning, Ga., Tuesday.
Lt. Echavez was an engineering student at the University last winter. Because of his record in the ROTC here, he was sent to the ROTC graduate camp at Fort Rilev this summer before being ordered to join the Third Student Training Regiment at Fort Benning for OCS.
The student seal drive committee hopes to reach a quota of $500.

Col. Karl Baldwin Began Campaign For New Military Science Building; Endowment Association Aided Him
Many persons and agencies took part in financing the $250. 000 Military Science building which will be dedicated tomorrow night. Col.Karl Baldwin, for many years Commandant of the ROTC at the University, first conceived of the structure and devoted his energies to getting it built.

If the University would provide Endowment Association set about raising the necessary amount. Colonel Baldwin and Lyle O. Armel, then assistant secretary of the Endowment Association, procured the funds needed before the federal government would allot $143,000 to the project from WPA funds.
The gifts of Mrs. Paul A. Dinsmoor and Mr. O. Jolliffe made immediate start of construction in the spring of 1941 possible. Other helpful bequests were soon forthcoming.
Later on, abandonment of the WPA program in February, 1943, before the building had been completed, jeopardized the project, but the Kansas legislature at its last session appropriated $69,000 so that the structure might be finished. The contract for the final construction was given to Basil Green of Lawrence, who completed the building in October, 1943, more than a week before the Nov. 1 deadline.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Building Should Be Dedicated to Peace
To destroy a thing, one must first understand it. To banish war from the earth forever, a deep and penetrating understanding of it first must be had by the men who seek to destroy it.
And yet peace comes in devious ways. Certainly such an occasion reflects a nationwide recoil from unpreparedness — unpreparedness that made Pearl Harbor outright slaughter and the subsequent year of war a soul-gripping struggle to put production and the fighting forces on a level with those of long-prepared enemy.
One might conjecture that the war would never have happened if all nations had been prepared; one could certainly predict that a portion of the 10 million casualties of two years of war could have been avoided.
It seems incongruous at first, perhaps, that a building constructed to withstand weather, time, and constant use for more than a century, and dedicated at a time when the whole world is yearning for peace, should be a structure to house the dispensation of knowledge of waging war more scientifically. It would seem abortive of the ends of peace.
Completed and dedicated during World War II, the new Military Science building will stand as a monument to the far-sightedness and perserverance of the men who built it, long after the horrors, tragedies, and heroism of this conflict have become only hazy remembrances in the mind.
Dedicated to the perpetuation of Peace, the Military Science building could mean that men would be taught the utter futility of war, the increasing danger of complete annihilation if future wars occur, and the benefits of living in a peaceful world where awareness, understanding, and preparedness exist.
Germans Reinforce In Scenic Italy
Since the Allied invasion of Italy, Germany has been reinforcing her defenses along the Po in northern Italy. The 5th and 8th armies now fighting the Germans in the hills below Rome will have many mountain battles before they face these defenses on the plains of Lombardy in the valley of the Po.
This central plain in the north which is nearly four times as long as it is wide, is the largest section of flat country found in Italy. Most of the peninsular part of Italy is mountainous or hilly.
Bordered on the west and north by the Alps and on the south by the Apennines, the plain runs east and west and is about the size of the combined area of New Hampshire and Vermont.
Lake Region Is in the North
There are five gradations of land from the mountainous regions of the north to the low flat country around the Po. Italy's northern boundary is in the lower heights of the Alps, and the region consists of woodland and pastures.
Enclosed between the spurs of the Alps are the deep blue mountain lakes in long valleys. This is the famous lake region of northern Italy. Although the Alps jut abruptly down into the valley of the Po, there is still a narrow belt of country just north of the low country called the hilly or albipaline region.

And then there was Corrigan:
Saturday night after the paddle party, a certain local sailor set out in his bell-bottom trousers in the company of several brothers in the bond for the big city. Approximately one-half hour from Lawrence, the aforementioned tar remembered he was not signed out for overnight, and that his actions, as a result, did not coincide with the exact letter of the law.
A model sailor at heart, our hero turned off on a side road and headed back for the ship—becoming completely mixed up in the process. After a half hour of pure rambling, our sailor's brother had him convinced that he had made a complete circle and was now nearing K.C. When the first lights appeared on the horizon, they delightedly hailed the Missouri metropolis.
Resigned to inevitable court marial, our friend drove on and stopped sadly before the first place which cooked appropriate for sorrow-drowning. It was Willie's Grill—10th and Massachusetts.
Betty Grable bad good luck, too; When Harvey Haines, Phi Delt of raccoon coat fame, returned to KU on furlough this week, all that remained of a supposedly vivid blondine job were several streaks of yellow in a naturally chestnut topping. Although not bitter, Harvey admitted acute disappointment. He borrowed the idea from Tuffy Henshaw, Phi Gam, who, although already in solid with the women, was blessed with a platinum blonde halo after one application.
Italian vineyards are spread over these hills. The low flat country found in the center of the Po river valley is similar to the upper flat country, but less arrid.
Canals are plentiful in northern Italy, and much of the land is so marshy that rice may be cultivated. Along the Po there are meadow lands, and the city of Mantua, birthplace of Virgil, is situated near the river and surrounded by lakes and marshes.
At Colorado Women's College every freshman girl was shot by a movie camera and given a voice recording as a part of the required freshman speech course. The movies were taken of each girl as she walked up and down stairs, sat down, rose, and walked toward the camera for a close-up. For the recording, each girl gave a three minute speech concerning her home town, and then she read a ten-line poem, thus recording both her reading and speaking voice.
Spitting Discouraged By Sidewalk Signs
An early spring; Students who are mystified by an aroma of roses filtering through their lectures may be reasonably sure that the boy sitting next to them is a Battenfeld product. They may also be sure he is a member of the Weight Lifting Club, an organization formed recently by five huskies whose aunts sent them some effeminate toilet equipment. Unsuspecting future club members are told they must lift five boys at once from a prostrate position on the floor. Once down and under the restraining influence of the five weights "it took about seven for 200-pound John Larson), the intiate does his bit for the cause by absorbing several pints of rose hair oil.
The countryside around the foothills of the Alps is famous for its beauty, and the gateways through the mountains are adapted to entering rather than leaving Italy.

Gateways Adapted to Entering
Spitting on the sidewalk is one of the more primitive habits of civilized man. It spreads disease and endangers public health. To lessen epidemic threats and to improve disease control, signs have been painted on the walks throughout the business district asking the public not to spit on the walks.

300,000 a Month to Be Drafted
Washington, (INS) — The United States has entered its third year of war with the sobering disclosure that draft calls for its armed forces probably will total nearly 300,000 a month for the entire first quarter of 1944.

Revised Rock Chalk Yell Of KU Trainees Recalls 57-Year History of Chant
By Dolores Sulzman
By Doobes Suzman Have you heard this "then-andnow" story?
1918 — A United States regiment tramping through France, Kansas men in the unit chant "Rock Chaw-awk, Jay Haw-awk," and from some American group along the line comes the answer, "Kay U-oo." The Rock Chalk chant, with its savage, musical cadence, soon became a trench cheer of French, Belgian, and American soldiers.
1943 — A K.U. army unit tramping to Watson library for study hall, the first platoon takes up the chant, "Rock Chaw-awk, Jay Haw-awk," and from the platoon in the rear comes the answer "Taboo" (or possibly someone yelled the second verse, "Snafu.") The Roek Chalk yell takes its place in the "revised for military misuse" manual.
School traditions and the old "alma mater" stuff is often regarded as so much sentimental blop by some. But K.U.'s Rock Chalk is more than a school yell, and more than a 57-year-old tradition of the University.
Was Battle Cry in Philippines
The Rock Chalk of the University of Kansas has been called the most famous college yell in America. When the nobility assembled at the Olympics at Antwerp in 1920, they requested that a typical American college yell be given. Collegeians from Maine, Minnesota, California, and other states got together and chose the Rock Chalk as the most representative and impressive college yell.
Company H of the 20th Kansas Infantry took the Rock Chalk to the Philippines in 1898, and it became the battle cry of the soldiers there. It was used in China during the Boxer Rebellion, and Kansas men introduced it in France and Belgium in World War I.
Latest Change Is 'Hit It'
The "jayhawk" comes from an old colloquial name for Kansas and its inhabitants, and "rock chalk" from the outcropings of the chalk strata on the campus. The yell was first used by the University Science Club; later it was adopted as a school yell. It is one of the few yells that can be brought back from the football field, and that will sound appropriate at the end of a learned speech by a visiting dignitary on the campus.
The Rock Chalk has undergone many changes in 57 years—the latest official change being the snappy "hit it!" which K. U. students inserted several years ago and graduates groaned their disapproval. The addition is now accepted as an improvement but "taboo" hasn't been approved. The Rock Chalk is the creed, the boast, and the challenge of the University of Kansas.
(ACP)—Woolies may be the style this year, not for beauty's sake, but for more practical purposes on the Ohio State campus.
Ohio State Coeds Adopt Woolies As College Saves Heat
"All the buildings on the campus will be kept under 70 degrees in temperature in compliance with President Bevis' request to save fuel," Paul H. Elleman, maintenance engineer, said recently in a warning to Ohio Staters. Reasons for having more heat turned on will have to be pretty good to get results, he added.
It is doubtful that the coeds at Ohio State will go back to "grandma's day" and wear six or eight petticoats, a muff or even long underwear, but more slacks and flannel shirts may be expected to be seen on the campus.
George Harvey Waite Receives Commission
George Harvey Waite, Clay Center, a former student at the University and a member of Kappa Sigma fraternity, received his wings and commission as a lieutenant in the air corps Saturday when he was graduated from Big Springs Army air field advanced bomber school at Big Springs, Tex. Lt. and Mrs. Waite are spending a short leave in Clay Center with his mother, Mrs. George Waite.
While attending the University, Lt. Waite lettered in football, track, and music, and played in traveling dance bands. Before entering the service last March 22, he was employed in construction work with the Gunite Concrete and Construction Co., Kansas City, Mo.
Mrs. Baldwin Arrives For Dedication
Mrs. Karl F. Baldwin, wife of Col. Karl F. Baldwin, now stationed in Australia, arrived Tuesday afternoon from her home in Berkeley, Calif., to be present for the unveiling of the Military Science building tomorrow night, and will be the guest during the holidays of Rev. and Mrs. T. H. Aszman. She will leave for her home on December 27.
Many social affairs, including luncheons, teas, and dinners, have been planned for Mrs. Baldwin during her stay here. She will also be the guest at other parties here in Lawrence and of organizations to which she formerly belonged.
Mrs. Aszman will entertain with a coffee tomorrow morning honoring her guest.
At the exercises, which will probably be in Fraser theater, commissions may also be granted to graduates in both the Army and Navy, Dr. Ingham asserted.
"Admission is going to be by ticket only," he stated, "to make room for the relatives and friends of those graduating."
Plans are under consideration for some type of procession with graduates in "academic garb." The University Commencement Committee, which met Tuesday afternoon, also plans to -secure an outstanding speaker, possibly in the field of professional medicine.
Another meeting of the committee will be held in the near future to discuss plans for the mid-year graduation for those finishing their work at the end of the present semester.
Special commencement exercises for a class of more than 80 graduates from the School of Medicine, and about 34 nurses, who are receiving certificates or bachelor of science degrees, will be on Jan. 31, Harold G. Ingham, director of the extension division, announced yesterday.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1943
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Honor came to two Kansas Jayhawk football linemen today when the Associated Press 1943 All-American selections were made. Both Frank Gruden, guard, and Wayne Hird, center, received honorable mention . . . Gruden, a junior, suffered a slight brain concussion in the season's final game against Ft. Riley. He is doubtful whether he will ever don football togs again . . . This was the second time that Gruden has sustained a head injury . . . Seven other Big Six gridders received honorable mention rating, but not one man from the Missouri Valley rated the AP's first three teams.
--building his team . . . The game with the Washburn Ichabods at Topeka Friday night is the first game of the season for the Capital City team . . . The Ichabods will throw a lot of height at the Jayhawks as Sailors Jordan, Hagedorn, Ennis, and Parsons, all tip 6 foot 3 with the former standing better than 6 foot 4 . . . Coach Dee Ericson's team will be made up mostly of V-12 athletes.
Four Are From Missouri
Four Missouri Tigers received mention, tackles Alf Anderson and Jim Kekeris, and backs Bill Dellastatious and Don Reece . . . Representing the Oklahoma Sooners were their two stalwart backs, Bob Brumley and Derald Lebow . . . Lane, K-State guard, was the other man . . . Neither Kekeris, Lane, or Hird ranked better than just honorable mention on the AP All-Big Six team, while Dellastatius was only a member of the second eleven . . . The leaving out of such All-Big Six stars as Fulghum, Oklahoma; Tippee, Iowa State; Morton, Missouri; and George, Kansas; shows the fallacy of these All-American selections . . . It seems the AP would at least give All-American honorable mention and consideration to the players they put on their all-conference elevens rather than to men whom they judged not worthy of even sectional honors.

The All-America of the All-Americas Tomorrow
It has been the general opinion that All-American teams have lost much of their weight and prestige in recent years . . . With nearly every press service and magazine coming out with their own All-Americans, who knows what players are really the eleven best players in the country . . . The truth is that nobody knows or ever really can know . . . It was only in the days of Walter Camps, the originator of the All-America, that one and only one team of the nation's football stars were chosen . . . Nevertheless, All-American and All-Conference and All-Opponent and what-have you teams will always be a good source for copy . . . So, just for fun, we will present an All-America of the All-Americans tomorrow by mathematically calculating the leading choices of the several All-American teams
Snort Chatter
Bob Ruman and Bob Ballibon, Fort Riley Centaurus who played against the Jayhawks Thanksgiving Day, were chosen on the AP All-Midwestern Army Eleven . . . With four of last year's regulars back, plus several good reserves, the Newton Railoaders are again selected to take top honors in the Ark-Valley besides being a leading contender for state honors . . .
Time marches on, but so does Kansas' Phog Allen and Newton's Frank Lindley . . . Both Oklahoma teams have failed to recognize the significance of the ODT's order to save train space as much as possible and make trips that are only necessary . . . The Oklahoma Aggies, with seven-foot Bob Kurland leading the way, will make a jaunt back to Madison Square garden for a game this Thursday, while the Oklahoma University Sooners will wait for their eastern tour until the first of March . . . Bruce Drake's Sooners will go against tradition by entering in the Oklahoma City Invitition Tournament Dec. 27, 28, and 29. Drake has nabbed two school boy stars from Indiana, which, along with Kansas, is the greatest basketball hotbed and producer of college stars of any state in the union . . . Allie Paine, clever senior quarterback, is the nucleus around which Drake is

Skilled Basketteers To Tangle With KU Team Wednesday
The Olathe Naval Air station basketball team that will make an appearance against the Jayhawks in Hoch auditorium Wednesday is loaded with experienced veteran basketball players.
Conley's cage experience covers interscholastic ball in Kansas City as well as play in the Naismith League. He saw considerable action with the Clippers last year. Self played with Baker university before entering the navy. Jurkovic is a former Ohio State basketball player and spent several years coaching before entering the navy.
The Clippers, opening their season against the Ft. Leavenworth Flyers tonight, are coached by Lieut. Marty Peters, who also may see some action at forward.
Among the men most likely to see starting action are: Rex Conley, Spencer Self, William Jurkovic and Peters, forwards; Walter Herkal, Don Toews and Kite Thomas, guards and Dale Covert, center.
Herkal's basketball career is a lengthy one. After playing with the River Falls—Teachers college he teamed with some of the outstanding fives in the Minneapolis area. Toevs, a Clipper last year, is from Newton, Kans. Thomas, another Clipper veteran, was a star on the Wyandotte high team.
Covert, 6 foot 3 inch center, saw action last year. Other members of the Clipper squad who will see action are Ray Barrow, William Hu-Hadway, John Forlees, Paul Leonard, Wayne Scranton, Carl Hanson, Charles Warden, Ward Perry, Ray Lynch and Rodney Matthews.

Frazier's Statue of Christ Added To Madonna Exhibit in Museum
A statue of "Christ, the Light of the World," sculptured by Bernard "Poco" Frazier, instructor of design has been added to the exhibit of reproductions of the madonnas in the north gallery on the second floor of Spooner-Thayer museum.
Hand of Figure Broken
Mr. Frazier completed the statue in 1941 to enter as a sketch model in a competition in Washington, D.C., sponsored by the Catholic Welfare Association. The competition was conducted in three phases. First, sculptors throughout the country were invited to submit photographs of their previous work. Then, from the group of entrants, a committee chose several artists, including Mr. Frazier, to make models. Finally, the winner was selected to make a 15-foot statue.
The white, 36-inch statue stands against the background of an exquisite handblock English print in the paisley or Persian design. The shawl was lent to the museum by Mrs. George Shaad, resident of Lawrence.
Statue Made for Competition
Machinists's Mates Watch Work
In shipment, one of the hands of Mr. Frazier's model was broken off. Unknown to Mr. Frazier, the hand was repaired by some person before the statue was entered in the contest. Not until it was returned to him did he know that anything had happened to the figure. After the competition, Mr. Frazier remodeled the hand to its original form.

Cagers Hit Road For Washburn Rockhurst Tilts
The Kansas Jayhawks will take the road for the first time this season as they journey to Topeka to take on the Washburn Ichabods in Whiting Fieldhouse tonight and to Kansas City's Municipal Auditorium where they will clash with the Rockhurst College Hawks Saturday night.
The Jayhawks will help inaugurate the season for both their rivals, and with four games already behind them, Kansas should take the floor as favorite in both games.
Ichabab Look Good
However, Dee Errickson's Ichabods are hardly being taken lightly as his rangy youngsters have been reported as looking good in pre-season practice.
Both Kansas and Washburn will have two football players in their starting lineup calculated to reinforce the backline defense and supply under-the-basket power. Opening for the Blue at guards will be Frank Becker, 200-pound tackle standout, and Andy Shaltanus, for-

Allies Advance On Two Fronts
(International News Service)
NUMBER 54
In Italy and Russia, Allied activi-
ties today mounted and important gains were recorded in far-flung theaters of action.
Soviet forces finally seized the railway junction of Znamenka in the Ukraine in an offensive which crumbled the German defenses and endangered the Nazi holding at Krivoi-Rog and Kirovgrad.
The attempted large scale Nazi offensive west of Kiev bogged down despite enemy use of extensive mechanized forces. A Russian offensive fanning out within the helper bend meanwhile made good progress and a large number of Germans again are faced with encirclement.
On the Italian battlefront Lt. Gen. Mark W. Clark's Allied fifth army cleared up remaining enemy strong points and completed occupation of the entire eastern bank of the Garigliano river. Gen. Clark's forces solidified their positions along the river by taking the town of Rocca Devandro, last important enemy pocket of resistance.
$200 From AST's Buys Gifts for Veterans
Trainees of the Army Specialized Training program have raised a fund of approximately $200 to be used for the purchase of individual Christmas gifts for wounded veterans of this war who are in Winter General hospital in Topeka, Col. W. L. McMorris, commander of the University army units on the Hill, announced today.
Col. McMorris said this was one way in which the trainees chose to build the Christmas morale of who have been wounded on war battlefronts.
All Students Invited To Dedication Dance
Dean Gilbert Ulmer, chairman of the University committee in charge of the reception formally opening the new Military Science building tonight, today pointed out that the reception was not formal and that guests were not expected to wear formal clothes.
He also emphasized that students were being given a special invitation to the dance following the reception at 9:30, and that they were cordially invited to attend the dance without attending the reception before.
Military Only In New Building
The new Military Science building is built strictly for military needs. On the basement floor, the garage, the rifle range, and the brig are the most interesting features. The garage is used for storing artillery material. The rifle range, to be used for rifle practice, has a steel wall at one end of the room in front of which the targets will be placed.
The brig is more for exhibition purposes than anything else. It is a small room with one small, high, barred window. It is used to store ammunition, and valuable records.
On the first floor are the offices of Army officials, four classrooms, and a big supply room, used for clothing and military supplies.
The second floor, or the top floor 's the drill hall, a room constructed so that the men can drill in it in inclement weather. At the present time, however, it is being used as a gymnasium.
An armament room, in which rifles, machine guns, and other small weapons are stored. is the other spot of main interest on the second floor.
Debate Squad Gives Exhibition Debates
Hal Frusen and Henry Miller, members of the University debate squad, are debating before high school groups in Texas this week, according to Prof. E. C. Buehler, debate coach. They are debating the high school question of reconstituting the League of Nations.
Word received from the debaters yesterday by Professor Buehler stated that they had just debated before an audience of 950 high school students. This is the only debate tip planned for the year, Professor Buehler said.
The School of Fine Arts student recital was given yesterday afternoon in Fraser theater by five Fine Arts students. The program opened with a piano solo. "Polichinelle" (Fachmaninoff) by Jerry Bales.
Students Give Recital
The program closed with a violin solo by Helen Pierson. She played the second and third movements, adagio and allegro moderato, from "Concerto in E Minor" by Conus.
Arleene Nickels sang Handel's "Relieve Greatly" from "The Messiah", "Au Bord d'une Source" (Liszt), a piano solo, was played by Beventy Greiner. Zendra Kass sang "Und od die Wolke" (von Weber).
Vespers Sunday To Offer Music And Tableaux
The 20th annual Christmas Vespers with tableaux will be presented at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon in Hoch auditorium by the faculty and students of the School of Fine Arts.
Starting at 3 p.m., Christmas carols will be played from the balcony of the auditorium by a brass quartet composed of Eugene Arnold and Warren Taft, cornets, and Gaylord Gasal and Lonnie Kelly, trombones. Fifteen minutes preceding the service, chime carols will be played as the audience assembles. Organ Will Open Program
At the opening of the program, Laurel Everette Anderson, of the School of Fine Arts faculty, will play an organ number, "Accourez Pastoureaux" (Henri Busser), which will be followed by the candle lighting ceremony, performed by Tommy Hankins, son of Prof. and Mrs. J. E. Hankins, and Fred Coombs, son of Mr. and Mrs. Madison Coombs.

V-12's Granted Lawrence Liberty This Weekend
Lt. C. A. Mickelman announced this morning that as yet no change had been made concerning week- end liberty restrictions. All V-12's will have Lawrence liberty this weekend.
Plans Unchanged For New Building's Opening Tonight
The snow has altered only slightly the plans for the opening of the new Military science building. They have been changed to the extent that visitors are asked not to park on the field back of the building. Because the snow has made the ground soft, Col. W. L. McMorris, commander of the University army units, said today that it would be impossible even for cars with chains to park there. Visitors are asked to share cars, park on University drive and hard surface roads and walk down to the building
Navy Announces New Training For Electricians
The training program for the electrician's mates who will replace the machinist's mates will be under the supervision of the School of Engineering and Architecture, with Prof. J. O. Jones as acting dean. The training for the navy men will be divided into three branches—shop practice, electrical laboratory training, and mathematics.
Hausman to Supervise
There will be no change in quartering and feeding the men under the new setup, according to Fred Montgomery, University director of the naval program. He said that they would continue to be housed in the west wing of Frank Strong hall and will have their mess quarters at the Student Memorial Union building.
Paul G. Hausman, assistant professor of shop practice, will supervise the shop training. In the electrical laboratories, Dr. V. P. Hessler, professor of electrical engineering, will preside. Ellis B. Stouffer, dean of the Graduate School and professor of mathematics, will have charge of the mathematics taught to the electrician's mates.
No Change in Quarters
FDR Presents Scroll For Bravery in Malta
Zaletta, Malta.—In their recent series of conferences, the United Nations "have struck blows for the human race," President Roosevelt told the people of Malta in a surprise visit to this bomb-battered Mediterranean island on Wednesday, an official announcement disclosed today.
The American Executive came to Malta from Cairo to congratulate the people of this island on their bravery and fortitude in the face of 2,300 Axis bombing attacks and to present to them a richly illuminated scroll "on behalf of the American people."
Canteen Dance Is Non-Date Affair
The third canteen dance, a get acquainted affair planned to be a regular feature, will be given in the Union lounge from 3 to 5 p.m. tomorrow, Joanne Johnson, president of the Union Activities committee, stated.
Those men with activity books or cards will be admitted free. Without this card, the admission is 55 cents. All women will act as hostesses as this is absolutely a "nondate" affair, Miss Johnson said.
Weather Forecast
Partly cloudy, little change in temperature tonight. Saturday fair and warmer.
on the sidewalks which will be marked with signs.
The informal reception will begin at 8 o'clock tonight and is in honor of Col. Karl Baldwin, former ROTC commandant at the University who obtained the land grant for the building, and for the donors who made the building possible.
Guests will be taken on a tour through the new building which was made possible by private gifts, and state appropriations, as well as the land grant. They will also go through the receiving line which will be composed of Chancellor and Mrs. Deane W. Malott, Col. W. L. McMorris, Mrs. McMorris, and Mrs. Carl Baldwin who came from California. Col. Baldwin is now in Australia serving under Gen. Douglas McArthur.
To Have Receiving Line
Faculty members and their wives will be at the doors to receive guests and a group of 19 University women students will assist in the reception.

Ashton Regains Stolen Auto
Prof. J. W. Ashton, chairman of the English department, has recovered his 1941 Buick sedan which was stolen Tuesday. A resident of Topeka telephoned him yesterday and said he had found the car abandoned near his home. In it the man had found papers giving Dr. Ashton's identification.
The car had evidently been run into a curb or damaged in some other way so that one of the wheels was thrown out of line. Because of this interference it could no longer be driven. The car is now in a Topeka garage.
The sedan was taken from in front of the Ashton home at 1105 Louisiana street.
Five Groups Planned For YWCA Freshmen
Freshman members of the Young Women's Christian Association will be divided into five discussion groups by geographical location, according to the plans which have been formulated recently. Mrs. Rachel VanderWerf, executive secretary of the YWCA, stated today. Groups will meet in sorority and other organized houses in their location. Each group will meet at the same time, but the five topics of discussion will be rotated.
The discussion groups will be led by one faculty member or Lawrence resident and one student. The topics include "The Meaning of Democracy," "Brotherhood on the Campus," "Your Philosophy of Life," "College Curriculum and After College Career," and "The Christian as a Citizen."
The first meeting of these freshman groups will be held on Thursday, Jan. 13. The time and places of meeting have not been set definitely.

CAGERS----
(continued from page one)
(continued from page one) mer grid center. The Jayhawks will retaliate with Don Barrington, fullback, who will open at forward, and Charlie Moffett, fancy stepping half-back, who will be at a guard.
Scott to Start for Kansas
Errickson will pair Chet Scott, former Hays High flash, and Joe Dickey, ex-Pacific U. frosh from Oregon, at forwards, with Big Wayne Hagadorne, six-foot, three-inch Missourian at center.
Harold (Sparky) McSpadden and Dean Corder will again start for Kansas at guard and center respectively. Kirk Scott, after a two game's loose, will again be starter at forward instead of Bill Lindquist.
Experienced Players
Both guitets, however, are composed almost entirely of inexperienced hands. The Kanssan number only two lettermen, McSpadden and Guard George Dick, a nonstarter. Washburn hasn't a returning numeral winner on its entire squad and only one performer who has played as much as two years of college basketball.
Erickson has twice scouted Kansas. He will use a rolling, revolving offense, the same type that Rockhurst is also expected to use. Game times are 8 for the Washburn game and 9:15 for the game in Kansas City, where two preliminary games, involving strong high school teams, also will be played. Shawnee-Mission, Kansas state high school champions, meets Rockhurst high at 7 oclock and Ward high of Kansas City, Kansas, opposes Southwest of the Interscholastic league at 8 oclock.
Star Cazers in Line-up
Two former Kansas City, Kansas, star cagers will be in the Kansas line-up against Rockhurst. Don Earrington, who played with Kansas City, Kansas, Junior College last year, and Bill Lindquist, who prepped at Ward, are probable starters.
Lew Lane, Hawk mentor, will employ at least ten players against the Jayhawks. For starters he will have Scott Kelly and Chuck Alyward, forward; Tom Draney, center; Jack Sanderson and Gil Bourk, guards. All but Draney are freshmen. Others who will see action are Jim Haake, Paul McGovern, Mel Face, Bernard Lillis, and Strick.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
What Does Russia Want From Poland
Constantine Oumansky, Russia's Ambassador Extraordinary and Envoy Pleipotentiary to Mexico, stated recently that Soviet Union's frontier with Poland lies west of the territory which the Russians took in 1939. It is quite clear that Russia knows what she wants in Poland today. She knew what she wanted as a partitioner of Poland in 1939, and she took it.
The excuse of the Soviet government was that Russia was forced to intervene to liberate the eight million Ukrainians and the three million White Russians.
When Joseph Stalin signed a nonaggression pact with Adolf Hitler on August 4, leaving the British and French to fight over Poland, he supposedly was not interested in the Poles. However, just two weeks after Britain and France declared war on Germany because of the invasion of Poland, Russia had mobilized her army of three and a half million and had also invaded Poland.
The Soviet government's share was so huge that it was understood, particularly by Germany, to be for temporary military purposes, not permanent. Russia got vast quantities of farmland which she needed least, while Germany got the heavy industrialized part. Russia got the oil territory which Germany needed, and Germany took the textile plants which Russia needed.
This territorial set-up is probably one of the reasons why Oumansky says that the Russian-Polish border will be farther west than the one established in 1339. The Tri-partite conference at Moscow did not settle the question of what Russia will have of Poland. Will she get as much or more than she wants this time?
—W.T.
Guerrillas Play Part In Winning War
Guerrilla bands are playing a vital role as civilian fighters in the great Soviet people's army. These bands vary in size from a half dozen to hundreds of thousands of persons. Their equipment ranges from a few firearms to speedy tanks, even planes.
The guerrilla bands are a part of a strategy of Russian defense-in-depth, planned long before the Germans came. Weapons and dynamite were hidden on collective farms and cached in hideouts.
The purpose of these strong civilian forces is to make surprise attacks on the Germans while they are fighting the regular Red army, and to bring added disasters to the retreating Wehrmacht by means of harassing, dynamiting, killing, raiding German-occupied villages, destroying supply trains, and cutting communications.
Although the small victories of these "armies of the forest" are only pinpricks of success in the gigantic war, they are a terrific threat to the German armies. The Germans are afraid to enter the fastnesses of the guerrilla forces. They burn down the forests, raze villages, imprison suspects, and raise huge, combating anti-guerilla forces, but the tough Russian civilians still remain a tremendous problem.
In October, guerrillas blew up 33 troop trains in the Tarnopol region. Last week they struck an unexpected blow at Cherkassy. In the coming battles forecast by the conference in Iran, guerrilla warfare may prove a decisive factor in the defeat of the Nazis—W.T.

The Christmas Spirit: As far as we know mistletoe made its debut this year on the Hill at Watkins hall and Alice Goff and Bob Applegate were first to capitalize on the seasonal opportunity to ignore propriety without being talked about. To insure nobody's easing out there are five sprigs of the convenient green decking Watkins. It is sent in similar quantities each year to Watkins by an alumna, who although now in
Texas, apparently still has the better interests of the hall at heart.

Let's have a CLEAR understanding ABOUT HOLIDAY TRAIN TRAVEL
---
Christmas and New Year holiday travel has always been heavy. Even in normal years the railroads have a mighty big job on their hands to provide accommodations for all. But war means heavier and still heavier transportation responsibilities . . . and now untold numbers in the armed forces will have to be accommodated.
No real American will stand in the way of any uniformed man or woman . . . and we're confident that even though you had a reservation you'd cancel it cheerfully if in so doing it meant that a member of our fighting
forces could travel in your stead.A typical American gesture, thank heaven!
So your railroads make this request: Think twice before you decide to make a trip during the holidays. If it's imperative that you go, we wish you as comfortable a journey as possible in these days of heavy war traffic.
But if your trip can be postponed until later, then know that in all probability you've done some member of our armed forces a good turn . . the kind of a good turn any one of them would do for you if your positions were reversed.

Intramural Touch Football Finals Begin; Phi Gam's, Sig Aiph's Lead
Regular play ended in men's intramural touch football last week with the Phi Gam's and Beta's, and the Sig Alph's and DU's topping their respective leagues. These four teams are now engaged in the play-off for the championship.
The Beta's were runners-up with their only setback coming at the hands of the Phi Gam's.
in "A" League play the Phil Gam's came out all victorious as their only setback with Sigma Chi was turned into a win when it was reported that a varsity player had participated on the Sigma Chi team.
Intramural Basketball Soon
In the "B" League it was the Sig Alph's at the top of the roost and only an overtime upset by Triangle kept them from having a clean slate. The DU's came in second, but they had to defeat the Delt's in a "rub" game to make the playoffs. These two teams finished with only two losses as did also the Phil Delt's. Winners and Runner-up Play Off
In the championship playoffs the Sig Alphs were pitted against the Beta's, and the Phi Gam's were matched against the DU's. This had the first-place teams matched against the runners-up in the other leagues.
In the only play-off games to date, the Sig Alph's trounced the Beta's, 18 to 0, to reach the finals against the winner of the Phi Gam-DU contest.
Men's intramural basketball will get under way soon after completion of the touch football season this week.

Biologist Discusses Endrocrinology Field
A large audience of medical students, faculty, and others interested in the field of endocrinology heard Dr. Herbert Evans speak in Fraser theater yesterday. His topic was "The Internal Secrets of the Pituitary Body; a Historical Resume." Dr. Evans is director of the Institute of Experimental Biology of the University of California.
He gave a brief history of endocrinology, telling of its research workers and describing recent discoveries in it. Slides were shown of research men who made contributions to the field. The effect of hormones on the growth of animals was also shown by slides.
Dr. Evans is the discoverer of vitamin E. In 1928 he was awarded the John Scott medal for this. He was the first one to demonstrate successfully the growth hormone of the pituitary gland. Dr. Evans received his doctorate from Johns Hopkins in 1908. Later he studied in Germany.

The building, a $250,000 structure, first conceived of by Colonel Baldwin, was completed by Basil Green, contractor, more than a week before the scheduled deadline of Nov. 1. Colonel Baldwin began the campaign for the building in early spring, 1941. A special trip to Washington resulted in an appropriation of $2500 to start the project.
Endowment Association Aids
When it became known that federal aid would be available if the University would provide $25,000 in cash, the University of Kansas Endowment Association set about to raise the necessary amount. Colonel Baldwin and Lyle O. Armel, then assistant secretary of the Endowment Association, procured the funds needed before the federal government would allot $143,000 to the project from WPA funds.

Draft of Stables' Owner Prevents Equitation Trips
Pharmacists See Drug Film
No overnight riding trips for equitation classes have been planned, Marion Ransom, instructor, announced today. She continued to explain that the trips would probably be canceled this year since Mr. Gayle Mott, owner of the Mott K.U. stables will leave for the army soon after Christmas vacation.
"Industry for Health," a movie taken inside the Upjohn plant of Kalamazoo, Mich., was shown at the School of Pharmacy assembly this afternoon. The film illustrated problems of research, production and distribution of drugs.
Mrs. Paul A. Dinsmoor and Mr. O. Jolliffe gave gifts which made immediate start of construction possible. Abandonment of the WPA program in February, 1943, jeopardized the construction on the building, but the Kansas legislature appropriated $69,000 to finish the structure. Mrs. Baldwin, who arrived from California last Tuesday to take part in the open house tonight, is waiting for permission and a passport to join her husband, now a military attache in Australia. She will remain here until January.

From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
The Kansas State Wildcat's civilian basketball team got off to a good start by defeating McPherson College, 45 to 39, and the Herington Army air base quintet, 31 to 24. Forward Charles Cooley tossed in 21 points against McPherson to serve notice that he may bear watching by Big Six opponents when conference play gets underway in January. Kansas had less trouble with the soldiers, winning by a 13-point margin, 40 to 27, and using considerable substitutions. However, the Wildcats must have had their scrubs in there in the last half also, for after leading 28 to 10 at the half, they counted only three more points during the final 20 minutes. That must have been about as bad a last half as was Kansas' first half against the Ft. Leavenworth Flyers.

Rebounds
Iowa State became one of the leading Big Six favorites last Saturday night when they took the Iowa Seahawks into camp. 31 to 29 . . Bob Steuber, star Missouri Tiger last year, took high scoring honors for the nation during the past football season by scoring 129 points . . . Steuber, who is now at Depauw, was placed on several All-American second and third teams . . . Four down the line in scoring was Oklahoma's Bob Brumley who scored a total of 79 points . . . The Wichita Beacon states that in spite of the Great Lakes' triumph over Notre Dame, they still maintain that Kansas' victory over Missouri was the season's No. 1 upset . . . The Pittsburg Teachers, who waded through a 6-game schedule undefeated, are one of only six undefeated, untied college teams in the nation.
Presenting THE 1943 All-American college football team as selected by mathematical calculations from a cross section of the most important All-American teams. Six all-star teams were taken and points were awarded as follows: 5 points for each first team rating, 3 points for being a second team member, and 1 point for third team recognition.
The Sporting News team, which had more than 90 of the country's leading sports writers and sportscasters participating in its selection; the Look-Bill Stern All-America, chosen with the aid of 158 NBC sports announcers and 25 key sports writers; and the Football News 3-Deep All-America, which was selected by the readers. Since no differentiation was made, only 3 points were awarded to members of the latter squad, making a possible total of 28 points.
The only prominent team missing was the Colliers-Grantland Rice selection which was not out as this went to press. Our team is as follows:
Heading the list was the Associated Press All-America which was selected after a nationwide survey of expert opinion. Also used were the United Press squad, which was chosen by 970 leading sports writers and editors; the Central Press AllAmerica, picked by "the college captains themselves;"

Senate Will Investigate Willkie's 1940 Nomination
Nigel BRUCE LASSIE
Washington, (INS)—A sub-com-
mittee of five senators was named today to investigate charges that backers of Wendell Willkie "bought" his nomination for the 1940 Republican presidential convention in Philadelphia.
Investigation was ordered after publication of a book by C. Nelson Sparks, former Ohio republican leader, in which the charges were made. Sparks also charged that forces behind Willkie—led by a noted New York banking house—had the nominee's assurance that he would support a foreign policy contrary to the party platform.

Allies Gaining On Italian and Russian Fronts
Slow but steady advances by Allied forces operating in Italy were coupled with continuing retreats by German troops on the Russian front today.
Reports from Italy told of bitter German resistance all along the line, but both the United States fifth army on the western front and the British eighth army in the Adriatic sector scored new advances. Enemy thrusts on the Tyrrhenian seacoast front were smashed by American artillery and mortar fire.
Many German Prisoners Taken
General Eisenhower's latest communique revealed that 6,000 German prisoners have been captured since the start of the Italian campaign and that British troops are now only 14 miles south of the coastal town of Pescara.
New large scale air bombardment of Nazi Europe got under way following a lull after a gigantic raid on Emden which took a heavy toll of German fighter planes. Four-motored United States bombers went after targets in northwest Germany this morning and in their wake a force of Allied craft struck at Calais and Boulge.
Nazi Counteroffensive Smashed
Nazi Counteroffensive Smashed On the Russian front, Soviet troops wrested the initiative from German forces in the bulge west of Kiev, smashing the most determined counter-offensive the Nazi have yet attempted since the big Red thrust began. German armies were hurled out of several towns and villages and sent into new retreat.
The Soviet High Command announced that the tide of battle finally had turned in Russian favor. Bernco Oil Refineries Raided
In the southwestern Pacific, Gen Douglas MacArthur disclosed raid by American Liberators on oil refineries in Dutch Borneo and on the harbor facilities of Macassar.
FDR Meets Patton And Closes Incident
Washington disclosed that President Roosevelt, returning from participation in the Cairo and Teheran conferences, had stopped off in Sicily. Publicly his most important act was to meet personally with Lt. Gen. George S. Patton, jr. and ride with him in a jeep reviewing United States troops.
Dr. W. W. Davis, the University's Big Six faculty representative, who is chairman of the athletic committee, was the principal speaker at the Jayhawk club 'luncheon in the Hotel President in Kansas City, Mo., last Friday noon. Henry Shenk, football coach, also made a brief talk and showed films of the M.U.-K.U. game, which his Jayhawks stunned the world by winning, 7 to 6.
This officially closed the "Patton Incident" and indicated that President Roosevelt had approved Gen. Eisenhower's action in merely reprimanding the hard-bitten tank corp leader after he had slapped a shell-shocked American soldier.

Lindley Hall Prepares For 'Gold Brickers'

Successful Opening Of New Building Despite Weather
More than a thousand persons visited the opening of the new military Science building Friday night, undismayed by snow and cold weather, which made access to the building difficult.
The reception line was on the south end of the drill room on the second floor. Visitors were greeted there by Chancellor and Mrs. Deane Malott, Col. and Mrs. W. L. McMorris, Mrs. Paul Dinsmoor, Mrs. Karl Baldwin, and Mrs. Lyle Armel. Twenty University girls in formals served punch and wafers in the gun room, which is located off the drill room.
Guests were conducted by ASTP men over the three floors of the building. On the first floor they saw classrooms and the administration offices occupied by Army officers. In the basement a group of ASTP men demonstrated the 44 mm anti-aircraft "Bonfors" gun. Also in the basement visitors saw the garage and artillery storage room, the large rifle gallery, the fireproof vault, and the entrance to the underground tunnel which runs under a sidewalk to the electrical engineering laboratories.
A large proportion of the visitors stayed for the dance in the drill room following the reception, with music furnished by the ASTP band
4000 Attend Annual Vespers In Auditorium
Perpetuating one of the University's most beautiful traditions, the School of Fine Arts presented the annual Christmas Vespers yesterday afternoon to an audience of more than 4,000 persons in Hoch auditorium.
As the crowd entered the auditorium, Christmas carols were played frm the balcony by Eugene Arnold and Warren Taft, cornets, and Gaylord Gasal and Lonnie Kelly, trombones. At four o'clock, Laurel Everett Anderson, organist, played "Hasten, Shepherds" (Busser) to open the service.
As Tommy Hankins and Fred Coombs performed the traditional candle-lighting, an ensemble, composed of Waldemar Geltch, violin; Martha Lee Baxter, cello; D. M. Swarthout, cello; and Mervyn Anderson, harp, played "Ave Maria" (Bach-Gounod). The stage was illuminated with a dim, bluish light during the opening number.
Candle-lighting Onens Service
Under the direction of Dean Swarthout, the blue and white vested A Cappella Choir entered the auditorium from the rear and marched down the aisles carrying lighted tapers and singing "O Come, All Ye Faithful." As they reached the platform and took their places on either side, the stage was brought into full light. The Choir's first number was Rachmaninoff's "Glory Be To God".
Tableau Depicts Song
The first of four tableaux was inspired by the song, "Hark! the Herald Angels Sing". The angels in the scene were Joyce Shook, Harriet Witmer, Mary Frances Neidig, Joyce Hartwell, Marjorie Brooks, and Marjorie Shryock. The tableaux were arranged and designed by the departments of drawing and painting, and design under the direction of Karl Mattern and T. D. Jones. Christmas carols during the tableaux were sung by Ruth Prentice, soprano; Mrs. Alice Moncreiff, also; Allen Crafton, tenor; and R. Q. Brewster, bass, directed by Mrs. Moncreiff from the first balcony.

Plans for Post-War Education Attacked
(continued to page two)
Washington, (INS) The administration plan to finance postwar education for service men was attacked as 'stingy' today by Senator Claude Pepper at a hearing of the senate education committee.
Pepper asserted that the proposal to allow ex-service men $50 a month in addition to tuition and other fees would force them to adopt a substandard of living while in school.
Maj. Gen, Frederick H. Osborn, director of the morale division of the army, said, however, educators believed that the $50 a month would be sufficient. In addition, he said $25 would be allowed to the wife if the ex-service man were married, and he could get an additional loan of $100 a month.
War Department Will Not Abandon ASTP
Washington, (INS) — The war department announced today that it has no plan to abandon its specialized training program under which thousands of youth in military service have been receiving college instruction.
The announcement was made by a war department official, who stated that a formal statement of the department's stand would be forthcoming later in the day.
The spokesman indicated that the training program, covering some 140,000 young men in 222 colleges and universities would be continued with a view of possible changes and curtailment.
Transportation facilities are crowded and there will be considerable congestion on trains and buses this weekend when students leave to go home for the Christmas holiday, local railroad and bus-line officials said this morning.
Holiday Travel To Be Difficult
Both Union Pacific and Santa Fe agents stated that all trains are overloaded with nothing but standing room on most of them. In some instances, there has been so little room that persons have been left standing on the platform.
The Santa Fe agent said that attempts are being made to accommodate holiday travelers, and additional facilities may be available.
The manager of the local Union Bus depot stated that though buses are crowded, they have been able to accommodate all travelers so far. He suggested that students try to travel on morning and night buses, since they are less crowded than those in the afternoon and evening. Overload buses are being arranged for to accommodate additional holiday travelers.
Agents suggested that, to help both themselves and the transportation companies, students buy their tickets in advance, and that those planning to travel long distances should have their schedules arranged early.
Service Men Attend Dance Class at Community Building
Approximately 35 service men attended the first dancing class, sponsored by WAA and Tau Sigma, Saturday night, preceding the USO dance at the Community building. The enthusiasm with which the project was accepted by this first group has greatly encouraged the WAA and Tau Sigma, who plan to have a larger number of coeds to act as partners at the next class, Jan 8. There will be no class Saturday because of vacation, nor on Jan.1.
Mrs. Dorothy Carter Hunt, Tau Sigma sponsor, instructed the group in the fundamentals of dancing-walking, turning, dipping, and whirling. As the class progresses, more difficult steps will be taught, including the waltz, two-step, rumba, tango, and conga.

Jayhawks Meet Rockhurst Team Again Tonight
The Rockhurst College cagers will be out to get revenge in their return match with the Kansas Jayhawks in Hoch Auditorium this evening beginning at 7:30. Rockhurst took a 32 to 45 licking by Kansas in the Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City Saturday night.
The Hawks are a fast, scrappy group of kids (the team averages 17.1 years of age) and should give Kansas a battle royal tonight for the game last Saturday was Rockhurst's first for the season.
Three of the Rockhurst players in the starting line-up are 17 years old. They are Jack Sanderson and Scott Kelly, forwards, and Chuck Aylward, guard. Gil Bourk is 16 and Tom Draney is the "oldster" of the group at 19.
Although outsized and outperi-
enced, Coach Lew Lane's youngsters
made Saturday's game an intere-
sting and entertaining battle and just
simply wouldn't let up at anytime
Rockhurst employs a double post
and they rely heavily on their fast
break.
Dr. F. C. Allen has announced that he will use the same line-up that he has been using in recent games.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Mexicans Celebrate Revolution of 1910
Last month the people of Mexico celebrated the 33rd anniversary of the Revolution.
The event celebrated by the Mexicans rose from political discontent with the government headed by President Diaz. Although Diaz had elevated Mexico's position among the nations and had improved the country materially, he had introduced some policies, especially the land policy, which the people thought were reactionary and prejudicial to the best interests of the country.
In spite of Diaz's policy to keep down disorder by centralizing authority in his own hands, an armed rebellion and general upheaval climaxed the discontent of the masses in 1810.
The Revolution was not simply a problem for the Mexican government. In fact, fighting was carried on so near the United States border that the United States sent warnings to both parties and mobilized troops along the frontiers to guarantee neutrality and to protect her interests.
By May 10, the rebels captured Juarez. The federal government agreed to negotiate for peace, and a treaty was drawn up. The treaty provided for Diaz's resignation and the holding of a new election in six months.

Not Robots yet: Last Friday V-12's and Machinist's Mates were told the uniform of the day consisted of peacoats and overshoes. Most of them, however, used their ingenuity and wore pants, too.
Ossawat'mie, here we come; the look of chagrin now mingled with an air of stupidity which has always characterized some feminine faculty members, dates back to a spelling bee. A part of a recent University club program, this bee served to bring out the already well-known fact that the general run of women are feeble-minded. Five men were still standing when all the women profs had been spelled down. Because most of the women went down on two syllable words the males conclude that their feminine colleagues lecture entirely in one syllable words and are disgraces to the teaching profession. (Male faculty members collected a total of $1.50 to have the above item inserted. For $3 the same will be retracted with appropriately libelous comebacks.)

A second number by the choir, "The

song, (Carl August Fischer) followed
with Miss Meribah Moore singing
the soprano solo. After the chorus,
the audience sang "Joy to
the World" directed by Dean Swarthout.
"Desert Christmas," a tableau picturing Navajo shepherds in the American Southwest and their flocks gazing at a brilliant star, was presented next. Clad in Navajo costumes, three Haskell Institute students, George Wilson, Anna Ruth Anderson, and Rose Gurley, portrayed the shepherds.
Offering for Scholarships
The University Symphony Orchestra, directed by Russell L. Wiley, played Dvorak's "Slavie Dance." This was followed by a free-will offering taken by the Jay Janes for the Fine Arts scholarship fund. Dean Swarthout next directed the choir in a Christmas hymn, "Hodie Christus Natus Est," composed by Professor Anderson, of the School of Fine Arts faculty. The choir was assisted by a solo trio, a cornet trio, and the composer at the organ. The traditional hymn, "The First Noel!" was the second carol sung by the audience.
"Nutcracker Suite" Tableau
A brilliantly colored scene, inspired by Tschalkowsky's "Nutcracker Suite" was presented as the third tableau, "Toy Christmas." The cast included Joan Johnson, Marie; Tom Jones, nutcracker; Betty Redford, toy doll; Raymond Nichols, jack-in-the-box; and Robert Hulteen, Roly-poly.
Joseph Wilkins, department of voice, sang a tenor solo, "Vision of
Peace On Earth Depicted
To the strains of "Hark! the Herald Angels Sing" the Choir moved slowly from the stage in two lines meeting in the center aisle and leaving the auditorium in a long column. Professor Anderson played an organ improvisation as the audience left the auditorium.
Probably the most effective spot on the vesper program was the final tableau, That There May Be "Peace On Earth". The scene presents the madonna, Margaret Gurley, with a soldier, Wayne Gallentine, R.O.T.C., and a sailor, Paul Benson, V-12 kneeling in reverence at her feet while doves of peace cast shadows over the group.

Two Victories Boost Jayhawk Reputation
Coach Allen used 16 players against the Ichabods, the first college rival Kansas has met this season. Washburn's passing was bad and it was not until ten minutes had been played that they could even score a field goal.
In winning their third victory of the season over Washburn, the Jayhawkers played a whale of a first half—quite different than in previous games—and then let down some in the final half.
Don Barrington and Sparky McSpadden led the scoring parade with 13 and 11 counters respectively. Trailing 11 to 29 at the half, Washburn came back from the intermission and played the Jayhawks evensteven for 10 minutes, each team scoring 10 points.
Kansas' stock rose over the week end as the Jayhawks returned from Topeka and Kansas City with two well-earned victories under their belt—a 46 to 24 triumph over Washburn and a 45 to 32 victory over Rockhurst.
Barrington, McSpadden Lead
Early Lead Over Rockhurst
Against Rockhurst, the Jayhawkers jumped away to an early lead and were never headed, although the youthful Rockhurst cagers put up a fierce battle. Don Barrington was the key man in the Kansas attack in the first half. He tallied four field goals and added as many free throws for twelve points. He made four more points in the last half before being removed from the game.
Dinzeo and Cassidy Fight Tonight at K.C.
A large crowd is expected to witness the boxing exhibition at the Kansas City, Mo., municipal auditorium when M. J. Dinzeo, heavyweight from the machinist's mates (15th division) and Mike Cassidy, 160-pound machinist's mate of the same division, will participate with the Kansas City picked group in meeting Oklahoma City's team tonight.
Dinzeo, weighing 180 pounds, has fought 60 bouts and was the winner of the naval championship at the Farragut, Idaho, base. Cassidy was the middleweight champion at the Farragut meet. He has scored five knockouts during his ring career.
The 10-card bout will start at 7 o'clock.
Sparky McSpadden aided Barrington in his point-getting by passing to him several times under the basket. The Jayhawk captain also contributed the ten points and Don Diehl added nine more. Diehl Displays Ability
Dr. Allen was greatly pleased and pleasantly surprised with the play of Diehl, husky guard from Smith Center, who, according to Allen, was a tower both defensively and
Big Six Directors Decide Spring Sports And Bull on Football
The Big Six athletic directors and faculty representatives spent most of Friday and Saturday at their annual winter meeting mulling over the question of whether there was any way to equalize the football situation of three schools with naval trainees and three without. They adjourned however, without announcing any decision.
There could be home and home games among the three civilian teams, Kansas State, Missouri and Nebraska, and the same setup for Kansas, Oklahoma and Iowa State, the navy schools. That would be one solution, M. J. Ahearn of Kansas State said in a discussion of the problem, but it would break up the conference play and that isn't desirable.
offensively. Diehl's biggest asset is his rugged rebounding.
iowan "Bud" Palmer, who dropped in two field goals, also played a bang up game and was highly commended on his play by Coach Allen.
Tom Draney, tow-headed junior center for the Hawks, played brilliantly and swished in five baskets from the field. He provided the spark in the last half to put Rockhurst within striking distance, but the experience of the Jayhawkers was too much.
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Although overconfidence would be disastrous, let alone hardly in order, the Kansas Jayhawks should not find the Olathe Clippers too hard a nut to crack The Sailors were hardly miracle men in their season's opener with the Ft. Leavenworth Flyers last Thursday which they lost in an overtime, 36 to 33. Goals by Tilberg and Carr and three free throws gave the Flyers victory after the teams were tied 29-all at the end of the regulation time.
* *
Incidentally, a return game has been scheduled with Herington AAB to be played there next Thursday. December 23. Team members will remain here for practice until after the Herington game when most will go home for Christmas. Don't think for one moment that the Jayhawks aren't "doing without" in spending their Christmas vacation playing basketball . . . Since most of the team are navy men, this vacation might be the last time that many of them could spend-any appreciable time around their fireplaces at home for a long time to come. The first game after the holidays will be with the Pittsburg State Teachers College on Jan. 3.

However, Coach George Edwards will lose his big gun before conference play gets under way. Big Ed Matheny, regular from last year, has only one more game before he is graduated week after next. Matheny led the scoring with fifteen points. Holman, another Tiger, who ranked third in the scoring in the Sedalia game, will report to the army for induction next week.
* *
The Oklahoma Sooners took a licking from the SMU Mustangs in Dallas last Saturday night, although Allie Paine, all Big Six conference guard of last year, led the scoring for the game with nineteen points ... Iowa State's two-point victory over the Seahawks looks all the bigger and more foreboding now as the Pre-flighters ran all over Minnesota of the Big Ten last Saturday, 54 to 34.

Corbin Hall to Have Formal Dinner Tonight
Corbin hall will have its eight annual old English Christmas reveals tonight at 8 o'clock. Janie Lorimer, president, and Phyllis Wickert, vice-president, will serve as lord and lady of the manor. Eighty guests are invited.
Garlands, wreaths, and candlelighting will decorate the hall in the manner of a baronial court. Corbin girls will dress in the bright, early colored costumes of the lords and ladies of the medieval period, setting the scene for an old English atmosphere. A Christmas tree at the far end of the room will be lighted with gold lights to pronounce the effect of candlelight.
The boar's head, the wassail, and the flaming pudding will be carried in by the singers and court musicians who will sing traditional carols of the sixteenth century throughout the evening's entertainment.
Harriet Leake, president of Foster hall, will give the toast. Prof. C. Vander Werf and Jess Roy will wish on the yule log. Harriet Danly, acting as major domo, will announce the guests who are met at the door by pages, and Virginia Urban will be the jester to the lord of the manor.
Several small ensembles will sing group of carols; "Bring a Torch Jeanette Isabella", sung by a sextet; "Coventry Carol", by a double sex-tet; "Cantique de Noel", sung by a trio; and "Silent Night", sung by the chorus with a solo on the second verse. D. J. Nichols is in charge of the carols.
Miss Lorimer will bring the program to a close by a small speech after which the chorus will sing "White Christmas".
Yuletide Decorations Put Up in Buildings
Christmas decorations for the service men have been put up in the Union building and Lindley hall by members of the Coed Volunteer Corps, Joan Burch, chairman of the decorations committee, announced today.
The decorations consist of a large Christmas tree in the Union lounge, and wreaths and silver trees with blue lights in the Union mess' halls.
The decorations will remain up throughout the Christmas holidays, Miss Burch said.
10 Below Zero Forecast Tonight
Following upon the heels of a light snow, a cold wave struck this community last night and the mercury continued to fall throughout the day.
A temperature ranging between 10 and 15 degrees below zero is predicted for tonight, and tomorrow will be fair and much colder than today.
The cold came from the northwest, spreading out over the state and sending temperatures as low as 5 degrees below zero in the southwest where light snow is expected tonight and warmer weather tomorrow afternoon.
A penetrating wind added to the cold today, but the wind is expected to diminish tonight.
Ten degrees below zero is the coldest the campus has experienced in the last two years, but this minimum is expected to be exceeded tonight.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS Who Fights For Freedom?
Many men in the armed services today are thinking about and discussing the racial situation during this war and in the peace which will follow. The following editorial is written by one such member of the navy, James E. Gunn, who was an editorial associate last year on the Daily Kansan.
The problem had its rebirth in the minds of power-mad men in a Munich beer cellar. To the German people, disunified in poverty, degraded in defeat, they threw a goat responsible for their condition, a whipping boy in expiation of their sins. And, unified in oppression, ego-crazed by blood sacrifice, they once again thought themselves the herrenvolk, the chosen ones, the Arayan supermen of Neitzche's ravings. Their story is history—or soon will be—but only just beginning is the story of the seeds of discord they have strewn about the world. Like Jason's dragon teeth, they wait for a stone
Race Conflict Is Shame of Cities
War is the great stimulant, a shot of adrenalin into the weary sinews of industry, into the quiescent heart of social questions. War stirs the emotions, brings out the best and worst in men. War intensifies conflicts, enlarges issues, destroys standards of value. War, also, is a time of appraisal.
Somnolent, too, was the problem of racial conflict in the United States. More prevalent in the South, more potentially dangerous in the North, the problem was awakened by the clamor of sword on shield, by the chatter of machine guns and the roar of cannon. Flaming in Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, New York, even today the conflict begins to assume the proportions of a holocaust. The persecutions, the mob crazes, the bloody race and class battles of Europe could be as nothing before the civil war that faces us today. Who throws the stone?
Racial conflict—it is an old question with a new face. It has never been completely dead, yet never so present in the consciousness of men as today. It is a problem as old as man, as young as his emotions. The wise men of the ages have faced it, the tyrants of history have tried to solve it with sworcs and crucixes; Neltzene preached the supremacy of the superman. Hitler has perverted it to its own uses. Never more virulent, never more vital, never more fraught with danger was the problem than today; for racial conflict varies directly with the square of civilization and inversely with the square of education. One of the greatest sorrows of today is that education has not kept pace with civilization.
One of the most potentially powerful forces of tomorrow is the ten millions or more of ex-service men, the youth of today, the men of to-morrow, trained in the weapons and psychology of war, accustomed to obedience and discipline, indoctrinated by battle to a callousness toward life, ever-minded of their sacrifice and the power of their arms, forgetful of their social and democratic heritages, resolved to mould the world into the shape of their will. Potential?—yes, for evil or for good!
There is a spirit abroad in the land today, a spirit of intolerance, misunderstanding, distrust, and hatred. It is present in a large measure in the service of our country. Speak up for the humanity of the Negro, the Mexican, the Jew, of their rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and you will be warned by friends and threatened by strangers about the possibility of violence if you persist in such un-American activities. And, friend or stranger, he will tell you about the marine in Chicago who was asked what the boys were thinking about over there. And his voice will drop to a confidential, conspiratorial whisper as he repeats: "When the boys get back from over there, they're gonna chase every damn nigger and Jew outa the country." And he will warn darkly: "Just you don't be on the wrong side, see?"
He speaks confidently, sure of the justice of his prejudices, certain that this and this alone will insure the security of his home, the happiness of his family, the prosperity of his country, the democracy of his government. And never does it cross his mind that persecution and aggression do not spring like June flowers from the fertile soil and die when their usefulness is ended. No, they breed like noisome toadstools in a dark cellar. They spring up everywhere, irrespectful of person or place. And when they crowd out one thing they do not die but keep on crowding until there is no room for security, happiness, prosperity, or democracy Nothing is left but persecution and aggression until they turn upon themselves and devour each other.
Heil to the New Superman
One cannot have aggression and democracy, persecution and freedom. Let a man appear, a leader who preaches the superman, the herrenvolk! Let those who have prejudice and intolerance in their hearts gather around his banner! Let the free be silent and the democratic dumb! And you shall see democracy shattered, justice overturned, freedom chained, and a dictator in the White House. Speak then softly, Americans, for free speech is no longer yours; worship secretly, for the State is God; gather not together; write nothing but eulogies of the State. And sleep uneasily, Americans, for your life, your liberty, your happiness are in the hands of those who care nothing for life or happiness, who have only chains for the free.
Protest blindly: "But what are we fighting for?" and the answer is ready and bitter. "I'm not fighting for niggers and Jews." No, you're not fighting for the Negro of the cottonfield and the chains, the low spirituals floating on the wings of night. You're not fighting for the Jews who gave us the Bible and Christ. No, you're not fighting for life, for liberty, for the pursuit of happiness. In the midst of this shattered world, torn by discord, intolerance, injustice, persecution, aggression, hatred, greed, envy, stained by the blood of a hundred innocent peoples, shell-shocked by lust and murder; who will fight for the love of his fellow man, for a better world and a better life, for democracy and justice for the little people—who fights for freedom?—J.E.G.
Graduate School Organized in 1896 The Graduate School was organized in 1896-97 for the purpose of giving opportunity to students to pursue advanced work and of encouraging independent investigation.
NEW ARMY SHOW---numbers will be seven hecklers. They are Bill Murry, Percy A. Ransome, Carrol Lindsay, Lee Mysseiork, Cas Rozyki, Dutch Krieger, and Ed Markle.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1943
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
This writer has fallen in line with Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen's proposal to raise the baskets (in intercollegiate play only, mind you) and for his suggestion that three points instead of two be awarded the free throw. We will present the reasons for these revolutionary changes in the near future, taking in part from the letter that Dr. Allen plans to write the sports poll of Esquire Magazine. In their reason presentation of the polling of the question as to whether the goals should be raised, Esquire stated that Dr. Allen had advocated the raising of the baskets as to take in basketball in general, including high school basketball. Allen never has been for the raising of the goals in prep school play but only in intercollegiate competition.
\* \* \*
Hugh Fullerton, Jr. states that Bob Kurland, the seven-foot youngster who plays basketball for Oklahoma A & M may be the unwitting instrument for making this change in the court rules. Pointing the finger at Kurland and other oversize "goal tenders" (probably because he couldn't reach Bb's head), Coach Bruce Drake of Oklahoma says he has decked to join Dr. Allen's campaign according to Fullerton.
Dr. Allen is inclined to believe that the sudden change of his old enemy Drake might have come from a more personal reason rather than for the good of the game itself. Allen believes the only way such a change can ever come about is to set a date such as three years from such and such a time the new rule would go into force. That way, no team and player, such as the Aggies and their Kurland, would be discriminated against. In fact, that is the only way it could be done for teams that now happen to have the "mezzenaine goons" would certainly raise a howl. And a well justified one at that.
- * *
Big Six Football players this year could never even come close to getting "All American" recognition. In fact they were, because of their respective team's records, sneezed at (probably rightfully so) and consequently no big Sirxer was an All-American until . . . Dr. Lucien Stark of Norfolk, Neb., came up with his 14th annual Jawbreaker All-America—an eleven composed of players with names designed to make even track sports announcers cringe. Therefore both Tolleenare, Kansas State, and Dellasstatious, Missouri, were given first team berths. Other members were Cittandino, Duke; Yanousch, Iowa; Zych, Wisconsin; Szymanski, Notre Dame (you can't leave the Fighting Irish out); Hapanowics, Penn.; Athenania, Navy; Kasprzak, Dartmouth; Dimancheff, Purdue; and Nasaj, Illinois.

Varsity Again Wins From Rockhurst In Basketball,43-28
Kansas won a basketball game from Rockhurst College last night, 43 to 28. The Jayhawks, in winning over the same opponent for the second time in three days, were far from impressive.
It was the same type of game as the Ft. Leavenworth encounter except that against the youthful, inexperienced Hawks, Kansas at least was always in the lead. However, in both games Kansas played a poor first half, received a half-time talking to, and played an improved final stanza.
Diehl Is High Scorer
Don Diehl, guard, who played the entire 40 minutes, was high scorer for the game with 11 points. Diehl was credited by Coach Allen as the Jayhawk's "best performer" last night.
Tom Draney, blonde-headed junior center, was high point man for the Hawks with 8. Draney, who is only 19, was the oldest member on the Rockhurst team as the other members were all freshmen up from Rockhurst high. The team's average age was 17.1 years. Rockhurst made up for their lack of age and experience with plenty of fight and scrap.
Don Barrington, who was bothered by a charley-horse and a cold, scored 9 points for Kansas, while Linguist scored seven points, McSpadden five, Moffett four, Corder three, and Frank and Sherwood each two points.
Kansas will meet the Olathe Clippers here Wednesday night and the Ft. Riley Centraurs here Friday.

Dinzeo Loses Bout; Cassidy Wins at K.C.
The condition of M. J. Dinzeo, machinist's mate heavyweight was such that he was unable to be at his best in his bout last night with J. C. Colhuer of Oklahoma City at the Kansas City municipal auditorium, and the result was his defeat on points—a loss which cost Kansas City its victory.
On the other hand, Howard Cassidy, another local machinist's mate, gave Ray McCoy, Kansas City, a neat boxing lesson in three rounds as a part of the supporting bouts.
Dinzeo went out in the final round under a strong comeback from the 205-pound Sooner. He seemed to tire under the weighty blows of his heavier opponent. The teams thereby ended their match with a tie-four-all.

Greece Raided Heavily by Air; Soviets Advance
(International News Service)
The heaviest aerial attack ever launched against Nazi-held objectives in Greece today left shambles of Athens three principal airdromes, and the harbor of Piraeus.
More than 300 American Flying Fortresses and Liberators swarmed over the Ionian Sea to plaster the Elcusis, Kalamaki, and Tatoi air fields.
Much Damage Done
Enormous damage was done to hangars, runways, administration buildings and planes on the ground. Two Allied planes were lost.
Coming on the heels of a formal visit to Cairo by Lt. Gen. George S. Patton, Jr., the violent Greek raid carried with it the promise of intensified Allied activity in the Balkans as the winter progresses. Nazi Counter-Attacks in Russia
Dispatches from Moscow, meanwhile, told of contact between big Soviet and German armies within the Dneiper bend following Russian recapture of Cherkassy. The Red forces held firm in the face of renewed Nazi counter-attacks west of Kiev.
Allied ground troops in New Guineau beat off a number of Japanese thrusts and new air attacks were carried out over a wide area following blistering raids upon Rabaul.
New Year's Party Tickets Go on Sale
Tickets for the New Year's party to be held in Hoch auditorium Jan. 1, 1944, will be put on sale tomorrow and Friday, Eugenia Hepworth vice-president of the Union Activities committee, announced today.
"We want to urge everyone to buy their tickets as soon as possible. as table reservations will be made with the purchase of the tickets," she stated. The first ones to buy the tickets will get the best tables."
"Some member of the committee will be in the center of Frank Strong hall from 9:30 to 3:30 both days." Miss Hepworth said. "The tickets will sell for $1.15, including tax, for all those who have activity cards or books. For those who do not have these, the admission will be $1.70, including tax.
Appeal Boards to Review Draft Deferments for Jobs
Washington, (INS)—Selective service headquarters announced today the issuance of regulation requiring review of the occupation deferments of every registrant whose principal places of employment and local board are in different appeal board areas.
Washington, (INS) — The senate finance committee today rejected a treasury proposal to repeal the vicory tax.
The appeal board having jurisdiction over the principal place of employment will make the necessary review as contemplated by recently adopted enactment to the draft law.

Old Persian Collection Displayed
"The Land of the Lion and the Sun," distant Iran, ancient Persia, has come into the spotlight as the chosen meeting place for the Big Three Roosevelt, Stalin, Churchill) conference.
For those who profess curiosity as to interesting features of this little known land, the English department presents in the display case in the hall on the second floor, north wing of Fraser, a collection of articles from Iran. The display was arranged by Mrs. Mabel-Dean Ehl, whose husband, Lt. Henry C. Ehl, is with the Persian Gulf Service Command.
The display is made up of articles from the collection of Mrs. Anna Olinger. Miss Helen Wroten and Miss Mildred McMullen, English instructors, assisted in the arrangement of the display.
Particularly interesting in the display are the Koran, Persian prayer book, a handmade bronze tray, a doll costumed in the chudder (the national dress of the Iranians until 1935), an individual tea service such as is used by many eastern nations, a carved silver teapot, a belt of silver filigree work, earrings such as the natives wear, a hand-painted pencil box, bells (both the large camel bells and the tiny donkey bells), conversation beads made of amber, Persian prayer beads, and pieces of tile taken from one of the decorative Persian gateways. On the bulletin board above the display case one may see the traditional Persian flute.
Enrollment Decrease Hits Junior Colleges
Public junior colleges, like the colleges and universities in the state, have suffered a decided decrease in male enrollment this year. Statistics disclosed by H. E. Chandler, chairman of the committee on relations with junior colleges, show that of the total enrollmt of 2697 students in the thirteen junior colleges in Kansas, there are about twice as many freshmen as sophomores enrolled.
A decrease in enrollment is attributed to three factors; students have gone into the armed services; those who took teaching training courses are now teaching in rural schools; and many students are working in defense industries.
Vandergrift Nominated Marine Corps Commandant
Washington, (INS) — President Roosevelt today nominated Lt. Gen.
Alexander Vandegrift to the commandant of the Marine corps. Vandegrift, who led the Marines in the first invasion of the Solomon islands will succeed Lt. Gen. Thomas Holcombe.
There are junior colleges located at Arkansas City, Chanute, Coffeyville, Dodge City, Eldorado, Fort Scott, Garden City, Highland, Hutchinson, Independence, Kansas City, Parsons, and Pratt.
Reduce Driving 23,000.000 Miles
Dallas, Texas, (INS) — Almost 23 million miles a month have been cut from the driving of motorists in the southwestern states of the region including Kansas.
Bind Americas Blanco Advises Spanish Group
Emphasizing the need for a new "highway" toward the future understanding and enlightenment of the common people of North and South America, Senor Andres Eloy Blanco, Venezuelan senator and poet, addressed in Spanish a group of faculty members and advanced Spanish students Monday afternoon in Frank Strong hall.
Mr. Blanco, who is in the United States as a guest of the State Department, was a guest of Chancellor Deane W. Malott and members of the faculty of the department of romance languages at a luncheon Monday noon.
Mr. Blanco said that the two Americas need to develop hearties between the common people, but that we must not leave the formation of these ties to the various governments of the people for gov-

Army and Navy Have Voice in Union Plans
The Army and Navy students now have representatives on the Union Activities committee, since the election of Wallace Grimes and Richard Beach, V-12's, and Stan Hagler and Jerry E. Galligan, Army men, Joanne Johnson, president of the committee stated.
These men are already taking an active part on the committee, Miss Johnson said, as they are helping with the plans for the New Year's party to be held in Hoch auditorium, Jan. 1.
"We feel that the service men should be represented in the campus activities, and we are glad to have these four men as members of the committee," Miss Johnson declared.
Margaret Boast Joins Kansas City Star Staff
Margaret Boast, a University graduate, is now working as assistant woman's editor on the Kansas City Star, the alumni office has learned. Miss Boast is assistant to Miss Nell Snead. She received her A.B. degree in journalism from the University in 1936. Formerly of Topeka, she had been employed as publicity director for Missouri Valley College, Marshall, Mo.
Hutchins Tries to Prevent Faculty Copyright Profits
Chicago, (INS)—Pres. Robert M. Hutchins of the University of Chicago today urged an extension of the university policy to prevent faculty members from profiting on the copyright of books.
Discussing the University's policy against profits from research by means of patents, Hutchins said the school remained free "to take out patent for the protection of discoveries which are likely to be exploited in ways dangerous to the public." He declared that faculty members "should be provided with decent compensation for their discoveries."
The Journalism building was formerly a chemistry building.
Sub-Zero Temperature New Record
Kansas City, (INS)—Slowly rising temperatures in Missouri and Kansas this afternoon with a return to near-normal reading by tomorrow were promised today by the Weather Bureau. The promise of relief came as the mercury struggled upward from record lows in the two-state area.
Temperatures of 20 degrees below were reported in northern Missouri and Kansas, lowest for December 15 on record. It was 14 below in Kansas City, 15 below at Kirksville and Tarkio, Mo. Topeka reported 5 below and Concordia, 7 below zero.
Temperatures ranging from 4 to 14 below zero were reported in this vicinity last night and early this morning, breaking the record of 2 below zero for Dec. 15 set in 1901.
Compensating factors were the absence of wind, which made walking to classes in the cold a trifle more bearable than otherwise. There continues to be about $2_{1/2}$ inches of snow on the ground.
Most complaining of students on the Hill were Southern ASTP boys who have never seen snow before nor experienced such extremely low temperatures. Loud and clear through the frosty air this morning came the tune being sung by a group of soldiers as they marched to class, their collars pulled up in an unsuccessful attempt to cover their ears. The song began, "Oh, I wish I was in the land of cotton---"
Shipmate Is Brother To Hollywood Pin-Up
Few of us are fortunate enough to have sisters in Hollywood, but wouldn't it be rather nice if we did have some such contact with a few dainty dishes of the cinema city? Any Machinist's Mate would cheerfully toss in his right arm for such a privilege, but fate has placed John Nichols of the 18th Division into that very status.
The lovely Faye Emerson of Warner Bros. is none other than Shimmate Nichols' sister.
And for your information, a picture of the fair Faye adorns page 102 of the Christmas "Esquire." At present Miss Emerson is working on a jungle opus which is to be released soon, and she has had roles in such pictures as "Air Force." "The Hard Way," and many others.
Passing thought: Nichols may be able to furnish any westward-bound seamen with some good telephone numbers.
Bill Would Freeze Social Security Tax
Washington, (INS)—A senate finance committee today overrode administration opposition and voted a tax bill amendment to freeze social security old age payroll taxes for one additional year. Effect of the freeze would be to prohibit an increase of one per cent each on employers and employees which otherwise would be levied beginning January 1. The amount involved is more than one billion dollars annually.
Goldbricks of 43 Drew Big Crowd Last Night
Wisecracking Lindley hall peeked Hoch auditorium last night, and with every sort of entertainment from "Softly, As in a Morning Sunrise" to a modified strip tease kept its audience applauding enthusiastically through the finale number of "Goldbricks of '43."
The greatest ovation of the evening went to Byron Hardin, piano soloist, who after "Malaguena" was called back persistently for boogie woogie.
With characteristic army originality Morris Olcerst. Jack Walker; and Russ Tornabene stood in front of the mike imitating the Andrews sisters while a record of the well-known trio played. The act shared honors with a pantomime, "Miss K. U. Coed" by Joel Epstein for the best novelty numbers. The pantomine showed the "average" K. U. woman getting up in the morning. Two Coeds in Show
Jean Richardson, College freshman, gave a Spanish Gypsy Dancer and Shirley Rauch, College senior, sang "I Want You For My Own," a number written especially for "Goldbricks of '43" by Sammy Frickey.
Other numbers were a baton exhibition by Fred Dreher, "The Waltz" read by Joel Epstein; a skit "I Wouldn't Do This for Anyone" with Jackie Wagner and Fred Mueller; and a take onk of Night before Christmas' by the master of ceremonies, Stan Hagler.
Stan Hagler, master of ceremonies, kept the program moving rapidly and supplied cues for a crew of hecklers who cavorted on the stage and out through the audience with the ease of professional end man.
After his first solo "Night and Day" Bernie Nippa sang as an encore, "I've Got Plenty of Nothing" Ronald Hadley dawed "White Christmas" and Joe Williams sang "Do Nuthin' Til You Hear From Me."
Fats Waller Dies From Heart Attack
The AST Swingsters playing "John Silver," "Cherokee," "Softy, As in a Morning Sunrise" and other numbers augmented a growing popularity by their part in the snow. Many Vocal Numbers
The modified strip tasse which went under the name of "Equire Style Show" showed army men in the various parts of their uniform.
Kansas City, (INS)—A heart attack suffered on the east-bound Santa Fe Chief early today stilled forever the boogie-wooie rhythms of "Fats" Waller, popular Negro orchestra leader. Waller, 39, was stricken in his compartment while en route from Hollywood to New York. He had been suffering from influenza for more than a week.

The library hours during civil ian vacation will be from 9 to 5 p.m. and from 7 to 10 p.m. Charles M. Baker, director of Watson library, announced today. Saturday, the library will be open as usual. All books will be due Dec. 17.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
An Ounce of Prevention
The bell rings its welcomed end to school while sleepy faces perk up and kids hurry to put on their coats. Jimmie gathers up his books and goes to another room already crowded in the school building. He enters with greetings to his friends and eagerly goes to work on that airplane model he has promised to build for the government. Time flies by and soon it is 6 o'clock. Mom will have dinner ready, for she gets home from the factory at 5:30 now.
After dinner Jimmie hurries to his room, gets out his materials and starts working. Dad is going to help him later on. The boys have called for him but it wasn't hard to refuse since most of the old gang has stopped going recently. Who wants to go out when there is really something important to do?
Gee, Mr. Westmore is a swell guy.
He lets Jimmie take the model airplane home, with some extra balsam wood to finish the other wing. Now Jimmie can work on it tonight.
Of course, the gang is going out to wander around tonight, in fact, one of the boys has a pint, but Jimmie wants to get this plane done.
Anyway, tomorrow basketball practice starts after school, and Jimmie wouldn't have time to finish this plane. Golly, there is so much to do before Christmas vacation when the Boy Scouts are going on a three-day pack trip.
War does hurry things up, especially when Mom and Dad are away working and the schools are open longer. It sure was swell of Dad to increase Jimmie's allowance, for he has so many gifts to buy.
Jimmie is sleepy but drops off into pleasant daydreams of plane-building, basketball, camping trips, and the necessary Christmas shopping before going to sleep. There seems so much to do—as a matter of fact, Jimmie can use the excuse of being busy when he writes to Jack in camp, just as his older brother does.
RULES OF THE STUDENT COURT
Jimmie and his crowd do not overflow the local beer joints with their cheap cigarettes, liquor and, raucous actions. They are learning now the constructive rather than destructive battle of the home front, which is achieved by a feeling of security at home and planned activities for busy minds. More towns should follow the lead of the progressive neighbors in preventing juvenile delinquency.

Hairless Joe and Lonesome Pole-cat: Pat Harvey and Jane Atwood just about knocked their dates heads together at one point during the Gamma Phi Christmas buffet.

He believes the present world struggle is the result of our determination that, even by force, the people of the world may come to know a way of "living," not a way of "dying" and the best way of "being a man," not the way of "slavery."

Good Will Is Basic Material
"The basic and fundamental material is good will," Mr. Blanco said. "We need bridges to cross rivers, highways to cross mountains, but still more do we need the spirit of the American and Hispanic-American peoples growing together, a union of two languages, and some means of communication and mutual understanding."
He said every language student a vital link in the great work, for we all want to help.
Mr. Blanco explained the meaning of "Columbismo," a word he has coined, as to the discovery and understanding of ourselves and continuing and maintaining the rightful and inescapable heritage of Columbus and other "discoverers" of the New World.

Eden Promises Aid to Lick Japs
(International News Service)
British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden promised all-out assistance to defeat Japan once Germany has been disposed of. At present, he said frankly Great Britain is compelled to devote here entire resources to defeating Germany, but when the Reich is conquered he promised, Britain will turn her full strength against Japan, along with the United States and China.
"We understand that to destroy Germany and make a compromise peace with Japan means only to sow the seeds of a third World War." Eden told the House of Commons.
Only a short while after Secretary Eden told the House of Commons
Vespers Offering Largest Ever Taken
The largest offering ever contributed for the Fine Arts scholarship fund was taken at the Christmas Vespers Sunday afternoon, D. M. Swarthout, dean of the School of Fine Arts, has announced. More than $350 was collected by members of the Jay Janes.
C. G.
The first scholarship fund offering was taken in 1939, with the largest offering taken before this year totaling $291 for two performances. Each year the offering contributed is put into the Christmas Vesper scholarship fund and is used in granting scholarships to Fine Arts students.
Whether it's a special oc-casion like Xmas dinner or New Year's Eve — or just an extra good meal — Here's where you'll find it.
Sunday's offering included 34 one dollar bills, a large number of half-dollars and quarters, and a miscellaneous collection of Missouri tax tokens and carafle slugs.
that any idea of a separate peace with Japan is unthinkable. Secretary Knox told news conferences in Washington:
"We are getting stronger and stronger in the Pacific. The preliminaries are over and we are getting ready to drive home some hard blows."
WIEDEMANN'S GRILL 834 Mass. Phone 84
The views of these American and British leaders came at a moment when the war itself appeared to have settled into the dolrums except on the Russian front where Soviet troops were reported to have occupied the important communication center of Cherkassy in the big bend of the Dneiper river. The Russian achievement was confirmed by Premier Marshal Joseph Stalin in a special order of the day.

Four students will give the School of Fine Arts weekly student recital at 3:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon in Fraser theater. The program will open with a piano recital, "Etude in C Major" (Rubenstein) played by Lucile Rothenberger.
Maurine Breitenbach will sing "Ouvre to coneur" (Bizet). Two violin solos will be played by Peggy Kay. They are "Romance from Concerto" (Wienienski) and "Dancing Doll" (Poldini-Kreisler). The closing number will be a piano solo "Tarentele" (Liszt) played by Gorjia Weirich.
Julia Casad Elected Conference Delegate

Jayhawks Meet Olathe Clippers Here Tonight
The Kansas Jayhawks and the Olahe Naval Clippers will start their cage competition anew tonight when the two teams square it off in Hoch Auditorium beginning at 7:30.
Tenight's battle presents a far different picture from that of last year when the two quintets first met in Hoch Auditorium. Both teams were star-studded with All-Americans, the Clippers presenting one of the most formidable groups in the Midlands. The Kansans went on to win national recognition and to win the Big Six Crown without a defeat.
In their three engagements last year, Kansas was victorious twice. The Clippers triumphed in the first meeting early in the season, but the Jayhawks came back to hand the sailors two sound defeats.
Little is known about the strength of the Clippers so far this season. The only common fee the two teams have met has been the Ft. Leavenworth Flyers.. The Allenmen came from behind to win from the Leavenworth crew in the closing minutes of a ragged game, while the Flyers managed to eke out a close game over the Clippers in their first meeting of the season.
Clippers' Strength Not Known
Starting for the Clippers will be Bill Jurkovic and Spencer Self at forwards, Dale Covert at center, and Kite Thomas and Walter Herkal as the guards. Jurkovic is a former Ohio State basketball player and spent several years coaching before entering the navy.
Self played with Baker University before entering the navy. Covert, 6 foot 3 inch veteran center, saw action last year. Thomas, another Clipper veteran, was a star on the Wyandotte High team. Herkal's experience is quite lengthy for after playing with the River Falls Teachers College he teamed with some of the outstanding fives in the Minneapolis area.
Gardner Former Clipper Coach
The Jayhawks go into tonight's game with a record of five wins and one loss. Two of the victories have been over service teams and three over collegiate foes. The done defeat was at the hands of the Hutchinson Naval Air Station.
Friday night, the Kansas basketers engage the Ft. Riley Centaurs in Hoch Auditorium. Kansas will play a return game with the Herington AAB quintet at Herrington, Dec. 23. Competition will be resumed after the Christmas holidays when John Lance's Pittsburg State Teachers College team will be the foe here Jan. 3.
The Big Six season will open for the Jayhawks on Jan. 8 when they meet the University of Missouri Bengals in Columbia.
Tau Beta Pi For Engineers
Tau Beta Pi is a national honorary society in engineering. One-eighth of the graduating class of the School of Engineering and Architecture is eligible for election to membership each year.
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock Kansan Sports Editor
First, we must correct the error made yesterday when it was stated that Dr. F. C. Allen has proposed that three points be awarded instead of two for free throws. Naturally, the field goal is what was meant, for free throws never have or never will be worth more than a single point. In fact, it is just this reason that Dr. Allen is basing his suggestion for the change in rules. It is plainly apparent that a free throw, although worth half as much as a score from the field, is much easier earned and for that reason many players play to be fouled. Rather than even trying to make the goal, many cagers shoot for the sole purpose of being fouled and awarded two charity tosses. The change in rules would not only do much to do away with this, but would also do much to take control of the outcome of games away from the referee. Game after game is won by free throws and a "questionable official" could throw the game which ever way he sees fit—depending on which side he sees is committing the fouls.
- * *
Pete Lightner of the Wichita Eagle recently commented that "it seems like the worthy Lawrence Doctor of Basketball is into his annual feeding. Last year, Dr. Phog blasted Hank Iba for a rough game at Stillwater and opined maybe they hadn't better play any more. Now it's Lt. Bill Hennigh and his Hutchinson Sailors." Quoting from this column, Lighter explained how Allen was disgusted with the Hutchinson NAS team in their recent exhibition here.
---
Allen's foe of last year, Iba, has at least fallen in line, despite his seven foot Kurland, in wanting something done about the goal-tending type of defense. Iba suggested that the rules be amended to make it illegal to interfere with a ball in flight anytime after its started the downward half of its arc. The present rule prohibits molesting the ball only while it is directly above the basket.
\* \* \*
We can just see Iba allowing the National Rules Committee putting such in the rulebooks — at least while he has Kurland. Last night the 7-footer scored 17 points in leading the Aggies to a 39 to 27 win over City College of New York in Madison Square Garden. The crafty Henry is just playing smart. He knows that such a court evolution would be slow in coming about. Also, that the change would come only when issue is made by teams that are offended by these goons. Since his Kurland is the chief offender and since he is agreeing and falling in line, the matter probably will drag on indefinitely. Change in rules usually only comes when there are two sides to the question, both wanting their own way. That stimulates action.
Having received six decisions out of seven, Henry L. Miller, College sophomore, and Hal Friesen, College freshman, returned to the University yesterday after giving a series of exhibition debates in Texas high schools. The debaters were gone for eight days.
Students Return After Debate Series
The Kansas team met teams from the University of Texas debate squad at Thomas Jefferson high school in San Antonio, Dennison High School, Temple High School, and a Dallas high school.
The debaters spoke on the national high school question, "Resolved: That the United States should join in the reconstructing of the league of Nations."
Donald Deever Gets Promotion in Army
The promotion of Technical Sergeant Donald R. Deever of Topeka, former University student, to the rank of warrant officer, was announced by the coast artillery command at Quarry heights, Canal Zone, last Saturday.
This was Deever's second promotion in one month. He was formerly personnel sergeant-major of an automatic weapons organization in the Carribean area. He will not assume the duties of assistant adjutant, as a warrant officer.
Deever had completed two years at the University when he entered the Army last September at Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas. Prior to attending the University, he attended the University of Chicago.
When he arrived on the Isthmus, Nov. 4, 1942, Deever was a private. He was advanced from sergeant to technical sergeant within one month.
Berkeley, Calif., (ACP) — Optimum conditions for the growth of penicillium, the mold that produces penicillin, are being studied on the Berkeley campus of the University of California by Dr. Michael Doudroff, assistant professor of bacteriology, and Helen Jackins, research assistant.
Penicillium Growth Studied at California
The present process for making penicillin is slow and tedious and often produces small yields. The studies in the laboratory are an attempt to find out what constituents of the vegetable extracts used in the cultivation of the mold will stimulate the formation of more of the needed drug. The addition of some known compound might increase the production, Dr. Doudoroff pointed out. The mold is now grown in complicated vegetable media but it might be possible to find a simpler one, he added.
"Many people throughout the country are studying this problem of penicillin production," Dr. Doudoroff said.
Former KU Students In Army Air Corps
Ten former KU students were graduated Dec. 5 in the Army Air Force central unit's mass graduation. 1st Lt. Joseph M. Clark, 40, Overland Park, was graduated as a fighter pilot at Moore Field.

V-12 Trainees Have Chest X-Rays Made
The pictures, exposed on 35 mm film were taken - on the ground floor of the new Military Science building where the unit, enclosed in a large traveling van, was located.
Chest X-ray pictures of all naval V-12 trainees were taken yesterday and today by a portable naval X-ray unit from the Naval hospital at San Francisco.
The unit, manned by three enlisted men under the command of Lt. R. M. Potter, left San Francisco last August on the tour of all V-12 schools west of the Mississippi. Now, with their schedule about half complete the men expect to take approximately 20,000 pictures when finished.
Two members of the machinist's mates ship's company, Pharmacist's Mates second class Goerelick and Stewart, assisted in the work.

Fraser Hall Shows Spirit of Christmas
Display cases and bulletin boards of the department of english in Fraser hall are in keeping with the true Christmas spirit. Even the conference rooms and English offices are decorated with branches of evergreen , pine cones, and red candles in brass candleholders.
A collection of pictures of madonnas is exhibited in the display cases on second floor. Copies of the most familiar paintings are 'Botticelli' the "Madonna of the Pomgranate"; Bernardino Luini's "La Vergine," which is in the Biblioteca Ambrosianae in Milano; a Correggio, which is now in the Mellon gallery in Washington, D. C.; a Dresden Correggio, which once belonged to Prof. Carl Becker, formerly of the University and now at Cornell University; and a 13th century painting by Matthew Paris, which is now in St. Albans, near London. Also with the group is a picture of the Madonna, one of the four panels which is in the National gallery in London.
Displayed with the pictures and opened to the second chapter of Luke are three Bibles—a Greek Bible, a Temple Bible in modern form, written in paragraphs instead of verses, and a Bible used in 1853. Two French prints showing the interiors of Notre Dame hang above the display case. They were taken from L'Illustration of 1922.
A replica of Dickens' first edition of "The Christmas Carol" in exactly the same format in which it appeared a few days before Christmas in 1843, is in the display case on the third floor. Six thousand copies were sold the first day the book appeared. Then, a copy cost five shillings. Today a collector would have to pay between 30 and 50 golden guineas for one of those editions.
Two of the favorite Christmas carols are described in the third floor bulletin board. In 1863 Henry Wadsworth Longeflow wrote the words to "Christmas Bells", beginning with "I heard the bells on

Churchill III Of Pneumonia; Britain Alarmed
Disclosure of the Premier's illness was made to the House of Commons by Major Richard Clement Attlee, deputy prime minister, who assured his hearers that the Prime Minister is receiving the best of medical care and that his condition "is as satisfactory as could be expected."
News that Churchill's burst of activity at the momentous series of international conferences in Cairo and Teheran had laid him low came coincident with Gen. Eisenhower's announcement of a paralyzing new allied air blow at German communications north of Italy and of local advances by ground troops on the Central Italian front.
(International News Service)
An alarmed Britain prayed today for the speedy recovery of Prime Minister Winston Churchill who has been stricken with pneumonia somewhere in the Middle East.
The air attack was directed against the resort town of Innsbruck, an important cog in the German military machine. Innsbruck lies due north of the Brenner Pass whose railway lines and viaduct link Germany with Italy.
Choral Clinic Class Serenades Hill Offices
Students in Dr. W. Otto Miessner's Choral Clinic serenaded six offices on the campus this morning with Christmas carols. The group, under the direction of Dr. Miessner, sang carols in the office of the Chancellor, College office, office of the School of Education, Watkins hospital, Business office, and in the Kansan news room.
The News stated that Bock was going into the service at the end of the present semester and that then the women will have everything their own way. They added that the chances are that the women are not
Kansan Staff Picture Reaches Far East; Soldier Sends Query
When NEA picture service got hold of the photo, it began appearing in various newspapers throughout the country, including the Sunday rotogravure section of the New York Daily News, with such captions as "The Last Man."
There were 26 women and 29 men enrolled in the first year of the University.
The clinic is a choral training class in music education instructed by Dr. Missner, chairman of the department of public school music.
When the photographer snapped a picture of the Daily Kansan editorial staff back in October, not much was thought about the incident.
It was a rather unusual picture since only one man, Bob Bock, the sports editor, was on the staff. In normal times, only the society editor represented the weaker sex.
NEA Takes Photograph
What is this leading to? Well, it was only a few days later that Bock received a letter from an American soldier in the far off Orient. This soldier, one Frank W. Johnson, saw the picture in the News and said that it intrigued him, and reminded him of happier days, and even a little of himself. Johnson, whose return address listed Burma Road army post office, has this to say to Bock, "You're an editor, so tell me—has the verse on the reverse side got something? The fellows and friends debated on it awhile in the barracks. However, I'd like a decision from a neutral's viewpoint—you're elected."

Greenhouse Supplies Hill Decorations
By Kati Gorrill
A large Christmas tree in the rotunda of Frank Strong hall catches the eye of everyone entering the building. The decorations are not the conventional tinselled balls and shimmering metal figures, but paper chains, lanterns, and gayly painted pine cones, gourds, and pods. The tree, a Norway spruce, was decorated by James Reiter, landscape foreman.
The pods are Kentucky coffee beans. They and the gourds were grown in the University greenhouse. The pine cones came from the trees in front of Fraser hall and from Austrian pines on the west side of the campus. They are gathered in May and June each year. Some of the cones and coffee beans are left over from one year to the next and used again.
The four large poinsettia plants in the rotunda were also grown in the greenhouse. Large wreaths of fir and pine cones were made for the front of Hoch auditorium, Watkins Memorial hospital, and the nurses home.

FDR Returns Safely Says White House
Washington, (INS)—The White House announced this afternoon that President Roosevelt has returned safely to the United States. The Chief Executive, who left American shores the night of Nov. 11 for his journey to the Cairo and Teheran conferences, has landed on American shores at an undisclosed place.
Students living in the home management house of the home economics department entertained Sunday immediately following the Christmas vesper services with a Christmas buffet party. Jean Hollis, Kathryn Krehbiel, and Elizabeth Hall live at the house with Miss Lucy McCormack, professor of home economics.
Home Economics Students Give Buffet Supper Sunday

Guests at the party were Margaret Krebbiel of Kansas City, Floyd Krebbiel, Dorothy Lee Miller, Betty Jo O'Neal, and Harlan McDowell.
Question Eligibility of V. Schaefer To Be Student Court Justice; Court Will Decide Case Jan. 6
A petition questioning the eligibility of Virginia Schaefer, a justice of the Student Court, to represent the court on the Student Council was filed by Herbert Peterson, a junior law student, at the court session yesterday afternoon.
Washington, (INS) — Secretary of War Stimpson revealed today that the Germans have increased their air power on the Italian front and reported that in a raid on the harbor of Bari, on Dec. 2, the Nazis destroyed at least five American merchant ships, causing an estimated one thousand casualties.
Nazi Bombers Sink Five American Ships With 1000 Casualties
The Secretary said reports from the war zone failed to show whether the two ammunition ships which were set afire and spread havoc over the harbor were American. He added, however, that of the ships destroyed, 5 were American merchantmen. Included in the thousand casualties were 37 American naval personnel.
According to Section 3, Article VI of the constitution. "no justice shall be a member of the Council." Miss Schaefer, who

Jeanne Shoemaker, College junior news editor.
Mary Louise Rowsey, College junior, Glenna Dare Creech, College senior, and Jacqueline Nodier, College junior—campus editors.

Fifty Die in Collision Of Trains on East Coast
Washington, (INS) — William C. Bullitt, former ambassador to Moscow and Paris, was a passenger aboard the north-bound Atlantic-coast train which was wrecked near Fayetteville, N. C., his office revealed today. The Red Cross estimated the death-toool will exceed 100 persons. More than 100 persons were injured.
Fayetville, N.C., (INS)—The death tol] in the wreckage of two Atlantic coastline trains near Red Springs this morning was placed at more than 50 by officials shortly before noon today. One unconfirmed report placed the death toll at 75.
Between 50 and 75 persons were injured officials estimated.
Question Constitutionality of Bill
was sworn in to office early this month, was appointed to membership on the council by the president to complete the council's quota of 30 members.
Question Constitutionality of Bill In a bill passed by the Student Council, however, it states that the president, in appointing such representatives, shall choose them from among the membership of the Student Court and that the status of the court representative shall be the same as representatives from other organizations. It is on these grounds that Miss Schaefer holds her membership on the Student Council.
The question before the court is whether this bill is unconstitutional in view of the above mentioned clause in the constitution. To decide this case, Arnold Weidman, chief justice, has called a special session of the court to meet Thursday afternoon, Jan. 6, at 2:30 p.m. As an interested party, Miss Schaefer will be ineligible to sit in court to decide the case, so the remaining justices will deliver the decision at that time.
The YWCA held its fourth Fellowship supper of the semester last night at the home of Mrs. Anna Olinger. Fourteen girls were present at the buffet style supper, the purpose of which is to better acquaint the members with one another.
NEXT Regular Session IS January 15.
Since the rules stating that all cases must be filed with Dick Miller, clerk of the court, at least five days before the court meets were not published until yesterday no other cases had been filed. Only routine business was discussed yesterday. It is expected that several cases connected with parking regulations will come up at the next session of the court which will be held January 13.
YWCA Has Fourth Fellowship Supper

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
ASTP Is Worthy Of Continuation
Instructional staffs and members of the ASTP at the University of Kansas displayed much interest in a news story in the Sunday Chicago Tribune which stated that the ASTP was to be "gradually liquidated." A later report from the war department announced that it has no plan to abandon its specialized training program, and that it would be continued with a view of possible changes and curtailment.
The Army specialized training program, which commenced its activities early in 1943, is now firmly established both within the framework of the United States Army and within the educational life of our country. KU is one of the many colleges throughout the country which has incorporated this program into its curriculum.
General George C. Marshall, in explaining the objective of the AS TF, stated that the Army has been increasingly handicapped by a shortage of men possessing desirable combinations of intelligence, aptitude, education, and training in specialized fields. By the creation of the ASTP, it has been assured of the continued flow of professionally and technically trained men.
The curricula for the ASTP were prepared by outstanding teachers in each of the fields covered by the program, under the supervision of the Army Specialized Training division. Credits for college are granted for the work completed, enabling the trainee to complete his work for a degree when he returns to college as a civilian after the termination of his military service.
Many ASTP students feel that it is unfair to have to remain in school during the Christmas holidays, when other members of the armed services on the Hill are away. But this cannot be helped since the ASTP is divided into 12-week periods, with a week provided in between terms. Right now the 12-week period cannot be interrupted.
The Program is divided into two phases, basic and advanced. The basic phase is roughly equivalent to a general college course, while the advanced phase carries the trainee to a point of development commensurate with the Army's needs. In general the ASTP curricula include various kinds of engineering, medicine, dentistry, personnel psychology, foreign languages, and military and physical training.
It appears that the ASTP is essential for an army of trained men. To disband it now would result eventually in a scarcity of specialists in certain fields and a lack of educated officer material. With a view to the future reconstruction of the world, intelligent and educated men and women are necessary for the type of society desired. Therefore, the Army, looking ahead, should train now the men who expect to participate in such a reconstruction.

Christmas Caroling Prevented This Year By Cold Weather
Although the Christmas season is here, below zero weather stepped in and has prevented many organized houses from doing their annual Christmas caroling.
Miss Maude Elliott's University High School Spanish classes went caroling last night. They sang carols in Spanish to some of the Oread teachers and to several Mexican families in Lawrence.
Sunday night, the cooperative houses, Harmon, Jay Coed, Kaw Koette, and John Moore, went caroling. Tuesday night, the Delta Gamma's serenaded some of the organized houses. Of those houses that usually go, the Gamma Phi's, the Kappa's, Watkins hall, and the Alpha Chi Omega's did not go this year because of the cold weather. Some may go tonight.

Clippers Defeat Jayhawks 42-36 In Cage Battle
In a thrilling cage battle here last night the Olathe NAS Clippers fought off a desperate Kansas railey and managed to win 42 to 36, handing the Jayhawks their second set-back of the infant season.
Kansas' rally was short lived, however, as Clipper子弟 dropped in an overhead push shot, Howey scored long, Covert dropped in a free throw and Self two charity losses. Diehl scored Kansas' other point from the free throw line but missed four other gift shots at a crucial moment in the game.
Kansans Fail to Make Freethrows
Trailing for over three quarters of the game, the Jayhawks brought the score up to 33 to 35 with five minutes remaining, when Bill Lindquist dropped in a field bucket. Don Diehl intercepted a Clipper pass and iobbled down for a lay-up shot. The basket knotted the game, 35 all.
Kansas' failure to make good their free throws helps bring about their defeat, as the Jayhawks missed 11 of 23, most of which were in the final half and under pressure. Olathe made 6 out of 10 free throw attempts.

ASTP Team to Meet Winters Hospital
Instead, it will be a speedy team of ex-high school stars who will be able to hold their own with any amateur group. To defray the expense of the event, a charge of 10c admission will be levied, according to Manager McCord.
It will not be a team of invalids that will be playing the Army Students Training Program basketball quintet when Winters General hospital, Topeka, plays in Hoch auditorium Saturday night.
and Coach Marty Peters, went out on fouls, as did Diedh of the Jayhawks. Twenty fouls were called against Olathe, while only 10 fouls were charged against the Jayhawks. Consequently, Olathe won their game on field goals, as they dropped in 18 from the floor to Kansas' 12.
The Clippers started off fast, hitting five of their first six attempts at the basket. The Kansas defense tightened, however, and the Jay-hawks found themselves to go into the lead by the mid-mark of the first half.
Battle Rages Til End of Half
The battle ragged back and forth from then on until the last two minutes of the half when Olathe, with their early game accuracy, built up a 26 to 20 score at the half-time.
Dean Corder, Kansas' regular quarterback and center, was in the hospital with the flu, while big Don
Machinist's Mates Lose to Ft. Riley
The K.U. Machinist's Mates invaded Ft. Riley in a game of basketball last night, only to be turned back, 54 to 25.
The Kansas Mac' Mates, who won't be students for long, found the star studded Centaurs too tough. Jack Ballard, a member of Kansas' 1942-43 Big Six champions, saw service for CRTC.
He and his teammates will be seen in action here Friday night when the cavalrymen take on the Kansas varsity. The Centaurs hold a victory over the Kansas State Wildcats, but were nosed out by the ASTP unit at Manhattan.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1943
41ST YEAR
M. W. Sterling, Veteran Teacher, Historian, Dies
Professor Miles Wilson Sterling, professor of Latin and Greek at the University for 50 years, who has been in retirement since 1933, died at his home at 1129 Louisiana this morning at six o'clock. He had been ill for several months.
Miles Wilson Sterling, who received his Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Kansas, and in the same year was appointed an assistant in Latin, has been associated with the University for sixty years, and had the distinction of being the first professor to have taught at the University for fifty years. He received his master of arts degree from the University in 1893.
Professor Sterling was active in early KU athletics. He contributed to the first attempts at making a gymnasium. With three other professors, he formed the first tennis quartet to play the game in Lawrence. He won the Oread golf club championship for three years starting in 1908. He was manager of the baseball team in 1893.
In addition to teaching, Professor Sterling published a "Quarter-Centennial History of the University of Kansas" in 1891, the 25th anniversary of the actual starting of school at the University. In keeping a record of the early activities of the institution, Prof. Sterling not only relied on his accurate mind, but on the diary which he kept. Through the years, he has come to be recognized as the best posted individual on matters of University history and record.
When Prof. Sterling was 15 years old, his father moved from Northern Illinois to a homestead near Abilene, Kansas. Young Sterling came west in a covered wagon and knew all the struggles and the hard work that belong to the lives of the pioneers. When he came to the University, Fraser Hall was the only University building with the exception of the original old North College building which at that time was not being used. The present journalism building was erected in 1883. Publishes KU History
In 1918, Professor Sterling was appointed official historian of war activities at the University of Kansas
(continued to page two)
For 32 years at least, one of Prof. and Mrs. M. W. Sterling's direct descendants attended the University. Their first daughter entered in 1902 and a grandson, Lawrence Sterling, was graduated in 1934. In all, five of their six children earned their degrees at the University, the sixth, Scott, having attended Yale. Grandchildren later attended the University.
Sterlings Loyal
The Sterling family, not counting in-laws and grandchildren, had a total of 221 years in school. Both Professor and Mrs. Sterling had two degrees each, and their six children earned nine degrees in 108.5 years.

Allies Gain Hold On New Britain
(International News Service)
Crack American troops paced by two Texan divisions consolidated their beachhead at Arawe on the island of New Britain today and started boring into the interior. The three-mile peninsula is now firmly in American hands, an official communique said, and United States troops are pushing inland through tangled vegetation and over volcanic terrain.
The British air ministry announce a crushing assault on Berlin which cost the RAF 30 planes. Huge fires and pillars of smoke were left in the wake of the attacking bombers. Divertionary raids over wide areas of northern France and western Germany accompanied the main Berlin attack.
Flying Fortresses and Liberators smashed the railway bridge and tunnel at Dogna in the Italian Alps just south of the Austrian border, and 200 tons of bombs were rained on the railway yards at Padua.
Mitchell Bombers simultaneously attacked the dock and railway yards at the port of Sibenik in Yugoslavia scoring direct hits on three enemy vessels.
In Washington the Navy department announced that 8 Japanese merchantmen had been sunk in the Pacific by United States submarines.

Union Lounge to Be Open During Vacation
The lounge of the Memorial Union building will be open during the vacation period. Henry Werner, chairman of the Union Activities committee, stated.
The cafeteria, the fountain and the music room will be closed, but the ping pong tables will be open for use from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., he said.
120 Machinists Get Diplomas
Machinists Mate three class Francis A. Henneken was also honored for his work as division commander.
Machinist Mate third class W. E Whelan, Alameda, Calif., was named by the commander of the school as the honor man of the school. Whelan's average grades nearly equaled the 3.7 set by Doyle Kellog of the fourteenth whose 3.7 is the highest yet obtained by a trainee of the school.
The fifteenth division was graduated from the Naval Machinists Mates Training school this afternoon in exercises held in Frank Strong auditorium.
During their training at the school the 120 men of the division have been under the direct command of Lt. (j.g.) C. V. McGuigan, and chief specialist Kenneth Hantze.
Chief yeoman Starkey stated that the men would have leave over the weekend, and as they were not to report to duty elsewhere until after the holidays, they would be permitted Christmas leave.
Thanksgiving Cuts Below 10 Per Cent
The matter of possible penalties for absences before and after vacations was referred to the Senate advisory committee to make recommendations after consulting with the Calendar committee and considering the number of cuts before and after the Christmas holidays, Prof. John E. Hankins, secretary of the Senate, said.
The reported absences before and after Thanksgiving amounted to less than 10 per cent of the student body, it was announced yesterday at a meeting of the Senate.
"The number of absences before and after the Christmas vacation will largely determine the recommendations for later penalties," he added.
Members of the Senate advisory committee are Prof. . H. Turney, chairman; Prof. John W. Ashton, Prof. J. O. Jones, Prof. W. E. Sandelius, Prof. G. W. Smith, and Prof. N. W. Storer.
Merry Christmas!

Servicemen Remaining Here Will Be Entertained with Game Party, Buffet Supper and Dance
A basketball game, a Christmas Eve party, a buffet supper, and a Christmas night dance are being planned for the service men remaining on the campus Christmas weekend, according to Prof. Allen Crafton, of the department of speech, who is chairman of the special committee in charge of the events.

Increase in number of cases of respiratory infections for this season of the year, but among these cases only 19 cases of real influenza reported in the first four days of this week, by the Watson Memorial hospital.
"The public in general calls everything "flu" but relatively few of the cases now occurring are influenza; the majority are ordinary upper respiratory infections of "common colds," hospital authorities explained.
The hospital visited 74 patients yesterday, with sufficient empty beds in emergency wards. ASTP boys are returned to a convalescent room in Lindley hall.
Shortage of staff makes the problem more difficult than in ordinary years. Nurses aides have been urged to put in as much of their training time as possible now. Many who have completed their training have been very faithful in contributing services regularly.
Yesterday, the Douglas county chapter of the Red Cross contributed 30 bathrobes, 30 bed jackets and 22 pairs of soft slippers, and 11 dozen masks to the hospital. All these articles have been made by the production department of which Mrs. H.B. Chubb is chairman. Mrs.M.S. Winter of the motor corps division assisted yesterday by delivering the completed items.
Christmas vacations in colleges and universities throughout the country vary from one-half day to one month. Purdue University will have a half-day off for Christmas this year; all private girls' colleges will have a month's vacation, from Dec. 15 to Jan. 15.
College Vacations Vary Over Nation
Many schools have announced vacation dates similar to those the University will observe. At the University of Texas vacation will start Dec. 20 and classes will be resumed on Dec. 30. The University of Southern California has scheduled the Christmas holiday from Dec. 18 to Dec. 27, with no classes to be held on Jan. 1.
The University of Illinois will observe Dec. 21 to Dec. 29 as vacation dates and the University of California, Dec. 22 to Dec. 28. The Christmas holiday for civilian students at Kansas State College has been changed from the original plan of four days to 10 days, Dec. 23 to Jan. 3.
Jum 7:30 Christmas Eve. Dr.
F. C. "Phog" Allen will referee the game, which is open to service men, their families and friends.
Following the game, the Christmas Eve party, to include refreshments and the distribution of gifts by Santa Claus, will be held in the main lounge of the Union building. Hostesses at the party will be members of the University Women's Club, and, as Professor Crafton expressed it, such coeds as can be corralled. No Orders to Be Given
A dance in the Community building Christmas night for the men and their friends will conclude the programs planned for the men. Lt. (j.g.) T. O'Hara, Navy Executive Officer, stated that an orchestra is to be engaged for the dance.
"No orders are to be given," said Professor Crafton in describing the party. Skits, musical numbers, or individual acts may possibly be given, depending entirely upon the wishes of the service men. Professor Crafton, who will be in charge, added that the men would have the opportunity to exchange gifts among themselves.
Open house will be held at the Union on Christmas afternoon from 5 to 7 at which a buffet supper will be served to the men and their families and friends. Members of the University Women's Club will act as hostesses at this time also. All facilities of the Union will be open to the men during this and the Christmas Eve programs. Demonstration Night
The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce has joined with the University and the Army and Navy departments in sponsoring the events. Mr. S. E. Schwahn, manager of the Lawrence theaters, is donating 60 free passes to the Christmas Eve gift distribution for the entertainment of service men who are forced to remain over the holidays.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Americans Celebrate Third War Christmas
The third war Christmas is approaching, and a mass exodus from the campus is only one of the many indications of the American Christmas spirit which refuses to be dampened. The United States is noted for emphasizing this holiday, and has always been lighted by thousands of trees, a symbol of peace and happiness.
The English have been praised for their "business as usual" during the hard blitz year. Americans should be praised for keeping a cheerful outlook on Christmas and making the most of an annual special holiday, in spite of the many vacant places in the home and in the heart.
On the campus a great many changes have taken place, the most obvious now is the scarcity of Christmas decorations. But this is only an outward aspect, for students have been thinking of Christmas for a long time and planning for the very best one. This vacation for the majority of students offers an opportunity to relax from the tension of wartime school, from the rush of activities and class work.
Whether or not Christmas is spent at home, Americans will stop to appreciate the privileges found nowhere else in the world and to appreciate our armed forces' successes during the past year.
In the United States, trains will be overcrowded but where else is travel as accommodating and free of restrictions? Merchandise is limited for Christmas gifts, but where else have people as much money to purchase gifts and as much selection? Vacations from school are shortened or eliminated but where else is such an educational program in effect?
Indeed, Americans have much to be thankful for, and they are showing their appreciation by a dauntless spirit outwardly conveyed by the continued decorations—trees with the usual tinsel, balls and lights; by the sending of gifts overseas; and by the greetings of warmth not lessened from three years of war.
Christmas is a tradition, and those participating in the holiday as always, are helping to preserve an America which is wanted in a world of peace.
PROF. STERLING--by the United States War Department. He collected the names of 128 men and women who gave their lives in World War I, these persons all being either graduates or had attended the University at one time. He was instrumental in collecting the photographs of these persons which are mounted on the wall of the Memorial Union Building on the campus. Among the names collected by Mr. Sterling was that of W. T. Fitzsimmons, of Kansas City, a graduate of K.U., and the first American officer killed in France after the entry of the United States into the war.

During the year 1887-88. Professor Sterling studied at John Hopkins University under Dr. Basil L. Gildersleeve, one of the leading Greek scholars of that time.
Student Directory Will Be Out Jan. 1
The student directory will be printed during the Christmas vacation and will be ready for distribution Jan. 1, Anne Louise Rossman, editor, announced today.
"We had hoped to have the directory out before vacation," she said, "but the complete list of students from the Registrar's office was not ready in time."

Only looking—Two Gamma Phi's, who prefer to remain nameless, admit they were caused no little embarrassment Tuesday night when they were forced to wander through a number of Lawrence hotels in search of some clothes. In due respect to the girls, we might add that the garments had been "planted" in a hotel room by loving Gamma Phi sisters. The l.s.'s failed to disclose the name of the hotel when they presented the victims with the room key.

Centaurs Meet Varsity Tonight In Basketball
The Fort Riley Centaurs will be the opponents tonight in Hoch auditorium as the Jayhawks strive for their third victory over a service fee and their sixth for the season.
But if the cavalrymen have anything to say about it—Kansas is in for a tough evening. In defeating the Kansas University naval training quintet, 54 to 25, the other night, CRTC presented two top notch basket shooters in George Wendell, formerly of St. Benedict's, who scored 19 points, and Kansas own Dick Harp, who counted for 15 markers.
The CRTC lineup features two former KU cage luminaries—Jack Ballard, 6 foot seven inch forward who starred on the ever-victorious Big Six Champions of 1942-43, and Dick Harp, whose work in the NCAA tournament finals in 1940 ranked him as one of KU's all time greats. Ballard's work in the final game against the University of Oklahoma last year—the finest of his career—will be long remembered by KU fans.
Harp Led to Championshi
In 1940, when Kansas met Hank Iba's Oklahoma Aggies in the NCAA playoffs in Oklahoma City, it was Harp's goal from a guard position hat won the NCAA berth for Kansas in a torrid over-time battle. The two teams had been deadlocked at he half, 20-all, and still locked at the end of regulation playing time, with 40 tallies each. In the overtime period, Harp arched a long one through for the crimson and the blue, and with it the right to represent this region in the Western NCAA finals.
KU went to the NCAA finals by defeating Southern California, in a game in which Harp from a guard post, outscored Vaughan, USC's sensational all-American forward. Coached By John T. Moore
The Centaurs are coached by Lt John T. Moore, and assisted by Capt. Beryl S. Taylor, who was on the physical education staff at Iowa State College before entering the service.
Lincoln, KC For Big Six Track Meets
The Big Six faculty representatives in their meeting last Friday decided that the Big Six indoor track meet would be held in the Municipal auditorium, Kansas City and that the outdoor meet is to be held May 20, at Lincoln, Neb.
There has been no official coaching assignment for track here as yet. Henry Shenk, head football coach, directed track and field here last year. Ray Kanehl, a recent addition to the physical education staff, has also had no little success as a track coach. His Wichita Blue Aces were state champions last year and were undefeated in all of their meets.
Two Lettermen Back
Two lettermen back from last year are Tom Schofield, high jumper, and Frank Stannard, hurdler. Among the brighter prospects are these men from last year's team: Harry Johnson, broad jump and the dashes; Warren Jacks, 880 and mile; Junius Penny, Charles Keller, and Frank Gage, the shot; Jim Walker, pole vault; Clark Hargiss and Joe Gray, hurdles; and George Rhoades, the 440.
Reigle, Robison Show Promise
Some of the newcomers who should go places are Jim Richey, Walter Isaacson, and Bob White in the dashes; Marvin Baldwin, in the 880 and mile; Joe Dickey, broad jump and shot; John Bergin, in the hurdles; and Harold Moser, in the pole vault.
When the outdoor season begins, Warren Reilgle and LeRoy Robison should show well in the discus and javelin.

The Kansas University Jayhawk basketeers will participate in the two double-header cage attractions, which have been arranged for next Wednesday and Thursday nights, December 29 and 30, in Kansas City's Municipal Auditorium.
$100,000,000,000 Insurance Asked by Armed Forces
Two other Big Six schools—Kansas State and Missouri—will participate, with the Washburn bods filling out the quartet. Iowa State and Nebraska were asked first, to make it an all-Big Six affair, but they were unable to make arrangements because of schedule difficulties. Coach Dee Erickson of the Ichabods gladly accepted the opportunity to play. The pairings will be announced later.
Washington, (INS)—Brig. Gen. Frank T Hines, administrator of veterans affairs, announced today that application for almost 100 billion dollars worth of National Service Life Insurance have been received from members of the armed forces. This sum exceeds 70% of the total amount of life insurance now out-standing in private companies in the United States.

41ST YEAR
Vacationists Return to Grind Until March 1
Civilian students and Navy trainees returned to the campus from a 10-day holiday vacation to enter a period of study uninterrupted until the end of the present course which will not end until March 1.
Most of those returning arrived on the campus Tuesday evening but there were many who came back for classes this morning and a few stragglers who missed early classes
Cold and snow made travel difficult in some instances, and some trains ran late. Crowded conditions of holiday travel added to the difficulty of returning students.
White New Years in Prospect
It may not have been a white Christmas for all the vacationing students, but prospects of a white New Year's loomed large in the white blanket on the ground and the gray skies above.
The five inch slippery covering, packed hard on Mississippi street, as usual turned the Navy's marching columns into sliding, slipping groups. Students on the walks also noticed slightly precarious underfooting, and cars developed the ability to travel in more than one direction.
Potter's Lake is now drawing a new group, a group that seems to enjoy the lake for its ice-covered self and not for some other reason.
Russians Repel Nazi Resistance
In Russia, strong Red army forces of tanks and infantry dashed aside desperate Nazi resistance in White Russia and the Ukraine to increase their threat of envelopment of several key junctions off the vital Leningrad-Odessa railroad.
Spearheads of the Russian army were reported within artillery range of Zhitomir and Kovostn in the Kiev area. Some 3,500 Nazis fell before the steady Soviet advances.
Dr. L. E. Sisson, professor of English, is ill at his home with the flu but is reported improving. He is expected to return to his classes on Monday.
In Italy an unconfirmed German report said the British eighth army captured Ortona after eight days of street fighting. The American fifth army intensified its drive toward the Cassino gateway to Rome.
Another unconfirmed German claim said Allied planes bombed Rome, causing numerous deaths and injuries.
Ramsay to Lead Navy In European Invasion
London, (INS) — Admiral Sir Bertram H. Ramsey, naval commander in the Mediterranean under Admiral Sir Andrew Brown Cunningham, today was named Allied naval commander-in-chief of invasion forces for Western Europe. He will serve directly under General Dwight Eisenhower, supreme commander of Allied invasion forces.
Dr. Sisson Sick With Flu
New Officers Added To Local MM School
Chief Yeoman Starkey announced today that two officers and one enlisted man were added to the company of the Machinist's Mates Training school in the past week.
Paul Ashby, Lt. (jg), reported from previous duty at Miamia, Fla. He has not yet been assigned to any specific duty.
Ensign Roger W. Fleming, Des Moines, Iowa, recently commissioned, reported for duty as assistant to the disbursing officer of the MM school.
Warrant Pharmiscist George W. Wittig, who had been on sea duty, has been assigned to duty as assistant to the Medical officer of the training school.
Two gifts totaling $17,500 were given to the University of Kansas during the Christmas holidays by two Kansas City physicians for the establishment of medical research facilities to aid wounded servicemen after the war.
2 Physicians Donate $17,500 for Medical Post-War Research
Dr. Earl C. Padgett, assistant professor in the School of Medicine, gave $7,500 on Dec. 22 to create a research fellowship in plastic surgery at the University of Kansas School of Medicine.
In making the gift he expressed the wish that the money be invested by the Endowment Association, through which the gift was made, and that the income and any amount of the principal be made available to a committee to operate the fellowship. It was specified that the operating committee be appointed by the Chancellor, and it was recommended that the committee be composed of the head of plastic surgery in the School of Medicine,

Germans Lose 3 Destroyers, Light Cruiser
Only a few hours after the British Admiralty had released full details of the dramatic battle in which the 26,000-ton German battleship Scharnhorst was sent to the bottom, an official communique disclosed that three destroyers of Adolph Hitler's rapidly dwindling fleet had met their end off the western coast of France.
Meantime American forces expanding their beach-head on the western and southern coasts of newly invaded New Britain island today hammered at Japanese defenders before two important airdromes.
(International News Service)
Both surface units and aircraft played a part in the Biscay encounter, and along with this disclosure came the news that a German light cruiser has been sunk by Allied motor torpedo boats off the Dalmatian coast of Yugoslavia, while a Nazi blockade runner was destroyed in the English channel and planes of the RAF Coastal Command bombed an enemy convoy off the Norwegian coast.
Once headed back toward the wilderness, a soap stone (Minnihaha's resident cling to spats, ulsters, and flannel drawers also as wintertime expedients) burning your feet up, you try to go to sleep and forget about the party and the wedding you are missing because the University Senate went beserk and granted a 10-day vacation.
Marines, who Sunday established two beach-heads in the Gloucester area of the island, drove to within a mile of the key air strips in this section. At the same time, troops of the United States sixth army were staging a comebreak, having temporarily yielded ground before strong Japanese counter-attacks. The forces were again within one mile of the Arawe airstrip.
You do go to sleep—and when you wake up you are conscious of barns with the familiar 45 degree lean—and a strenuous poking in the ribs. This last is little brother, brought along so the house wouldn't mysteriously burn down while the folks were away, pointing to his fellow scouts who are sweeping snow off the ice of Minnihaha lake with their Mama's best kitchen brooms. He is
When you live in a small town—say Minnihaha—and Christmas vacation looms up, you don't pad yourself for a trip downtown on the KU bus and fight down for Santa Fe reservations. The Santa Fe doesn't go to Minnihaha. Nothing does — except you. And the folks are driving down to pick you up.
Small Town Student Finds Home the Same
Heavy and medium bombers supporting the Yank's ground forces dropped 150 tons of high explosives on the Japanese defenses and strafed the Cape Glouchester area with machine gun fire. Veteran Australian jungle troops extended their control of the Huon peninsula
The first few days in Minnihaha are pretty strenuous. You go down town to buy a box of kleenex and find yourself having your hand grasped by every clerk in the store, and hearing that its nice you are back after so long, and that school evidently agrees with you since you have gained so much weight. You have to be nice to these pump handles because you are related to half of them and the other half—this has been drilled into since early childhood—trade at your father's place of business.
saying the skating will be the "repeat" itself in a few days. You shudder to realize last year's slang is just now hitting Minnihaha—but admit the skating may be fun.
You Are Rammedebor All
Christmas Eve you go to the annual church cantata and are amazed at the number of men in the chorus. Some of them are stooped and gray and you recognize them as having been bellowing in the group since you were in primary. But there are other young men who puzzle you
(continued to page three)
Travelers Respect Commandos
Most students arrived on the campus this morning with a new respect for K.U.'s commando training. Some returned by bus; some by train! then there were the lucky ones who rode the old-fashioned way—in automobiles; and, according to actual reports, there are a few fellows who aren't sure how they got here—not to mention the ones who aren't sure they are here.
Traces of physical abnormalities appearing among Jayhawkers today aren't someone's optical illusions. Statistics show that trains and bushes make passengers a little worse for the ride. Any resulting twisted limb, stiff necks, contorted postures, or general deformities are, however, guaranteed to be only temporary.
Proving that riding crowded trains and busses is not entirely without its advantages are the acquaintances one makes during the trip. In spite of the inevitable "closeness" of said acquaintances, they sometimes are quite lasting. And then there are rumors that travel today is not nearly so broadening—that is in one sense of the word.
Chivalry Was Not Dead
A few minor tragedies have been listed on holiday traveling; for instance, the conductor who missed his train and the bus driver who found his seat was taken when he arrived.

KU to Celebrate New Year Late
The celebration of New Year's Eve will come a day late for many civilian and military University students this year. The New Year's party, featuring Matt Betton and his orchestra and a floor show of local talent, will be held in Hoch auditorium from 9 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. Saturday, Eugenia Hepworth, vice-president of the Union Activities committee, stated.
"Confetti, serpentine, and whistles will add to the festivities of the evening," Miss Hepworth said. "We want it to seem as much like a New Year's Eve party as possible, since it is impossible to have the party on that night."
The arrangement of the tables on the stage, with stairs leading down to the dance floor, and tables around the dance floor will be similar to that of last year, Miss Wepworth explained. At one end of the auditorium will be a refreshment stand where ham, chee , or peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and cokes will be for sale.
"The tickets for the party will be on sale from 9:30 to 12:30 a.m. and from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. every day this week." Miss Hepworth said. "We want to urge the men to buy their tickets early so as to get good reservations, as we are planning for a crowd."
Closing hours will be 1 a.m. for University women that night, Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser to women, announced.
Varsity Meets K-State Tonight In KC Tourney
With the best chance in years the Kansas State Wildcats will try to tumble the Kansas Jayhawks in the nightcap of tonight's double-header basketball program in Kansas City's Municipal Auditorium. In the first game at 8 o'clock the Missouri Tigers will tangle with the underdog Ichabods, followed by the Aggie-Jayhawk battle at 9 o'clock.
The Wildcats have not beaten Kansas since 1937, during which period they never took the floor as the favored five. But tonight it will be a different story. According to dope the two teams are about on a par and it will be the "fightiest five" that will come out on top.
The Jayhawks have a record of seven victories in nine starts, whereas K-State has won four times in six games.
K-State Appears Strong
The Wildcats, employing a fast break, looked great against Rockhurst college last week, winning by a 15-point margin. Kansas University defeated the Hawks twice by 13 and 15-point margins and had no little trouble in doing so.
Lew Lane, Rockhurst coach, had nothing but praise for the Widcats. "The boys had plenty of hustle and missed/few of their shots," Lane said. "They should give Allen's team a great tussle."
Don Barrington, who will play for the Jayhawks despite a bad chalky-horse, was a classmate of Aggie Bob Schwirtz at Kansas City, Kansas, Junior College.
Only Two Regulars Left
Lee Doyen, guard, and Schwartz, forward, are the only men on the Aggie squad with previous K-State experience, having played in several games last year. Charles Cooley, center from Cunningham, Kans., and Lou Otto, 6-foot 4-inch guard from Manhattan, are freshmen. The other starter is Norville Gish of Manhattan, who is only 17 years old.

Washington, (INS) — All threat of a strike holding up operation of the nation's railroads was dismissed today when the War Department and presidents of three "hold-out" unions announced that a walk-out scheduled for 6:00 am. Thursday had been cancelled.
Late last week several of the brotherhoods dissented on the plan of striking which left the remaining units uncertain of their course.
To make sure that the railroads would be operated President Roosevelt on Tuesday took them over in the name of the government and threatened to use military men with railroad experience in operation of the roads and to punish those guilty of inciting stoppage of traffic in event of a strike.
The steel strike which was threatened last weekend, also was everted when labor leaders agreed to further negotiations over wage contracts.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
The Russian army draws nearer and nearer to Germany itself. The nearer it approaches the greater becomes the fear and hate of Bolshevism. German minds molded in this fear and hate will insist on fighting to the last man before surrendering to Bolshevism, a fate worse than death for them.
German Industry To Determine Length Of European War
The conference at Teheran and more definite plans for a second front have increased the speculations of the length of the European war. The arguments for a short or long war depend on the industrial strength of Germany.
So the length of the war depends not on destruction of German morale, but on the destruction of German industrial power. Every day news describes greater raids on German industry by English and American planes. When the second front is opened, success will depend on how badly crippled German industry is.
Germany will not lose the war now because of a break in morale. Germans have suffered hardships and privations for many years. Their education has included not only self-control and obedience to Hitler, but also a hate and tremendous fear of Bolshevism.
General Dwight Eisenhower, recently selected as commander-in-chief of the so-called "second front," said that the campaign must wait, showing this attitude. It is easy to throw men and supplies into a campaign at any time. But the Allies compute the war in the lives of men. It is better to have a longer war and thus lose fewer lives.
University Calendar On Sale Tomorrow
The calendars will be sold from booths in Marvin, Frank Strong, Fraser, the Memorial Union, and Lindley halls.
The new three-colored 1944 University calendar will go on sale tomorrow Beverly Bohan, editor announced. Although there will be 14 full-page pictures in the new calendar as contrasted with last year's 12, half-page pictures, and the new calendar is being done in colors, the price will remain at 50 cents, Miss Bohan said.
For an additional 10 cents above the regular price calendars will be mailed to addresses which are left at the booths when purchases are made.
Miss Bohan announced that the front part of the calendar will be devoted to the names of University leaders and prominent figures in student organizations. This section has been designed to be of value as a directory of student and faculty leaders.
Pat Penny and Marianne Glad are assisting Bob Noll, business manager, with advertising, Miss Bohan said.
Lt. Yeomans Assigned to Topek-
First Lt. Charles D. Yeomans has been assigned to the Army Air Forces Redistribution Station No. 2 at Topeka. He is assistant officer in charge of the section, personnel division. Lieutenant Yeomans was graduated from the University in 1940 with a degree in business administration.

Extra big worries this year and in extra big vacation to drown them. n. So Kansas flats quietly down into the Gulf stream.
Bill Mowery, Beta, was host to one of the best parties of the holidays. After a turkey dinner at his home in Salina, guests took in a place or two and then adjourned to the Mowery cabin. On the way back to town—about 5 a.m., Lynn Williams' car got stuck. According to those who remember, the football hero became unhappy because he was getting mud on his uniform as he pushed—so he laid down in the slew and rolled in it.
The stiff son'western reported in Wichita Christmas Day turned out to be only Olly Hughes, giant Sig
Alph ROTC man, rushing from egg nog to egg nog. The parties, explained Olly between gulps, were all given by his relatives and naturally he felt obliged to attend.
The Triad, held in Wichita, was its customary success. When the Blue Moon closed up around 2 o'clock, guests made their way over to a hotel room Bob Noll, Phi Gam, had engaged for the night and the flow of conversation continued on into the morning.
Kell Receives Degree And Commission at Yale
Joseph F. Kell, graduate of the University in 1940, recently was graduated from the Yale School of Medicine. At the same time, he received a commission in the Medical Reserve Corps, A.U.S., as a first lieutenant. Lieutenant Kell will take his internship at the University of Virginia Hospital, Charlottesville.

Campus Social Life to Be Dormant Until Advent of New Year
Students returned to the University today from a 10-day vacation to find a snow-covered campus, some left-over mid-seemesters, but no social program until the turn of the new year when the big New Year's party in Hoch auditorium (Saturday) will usher in a new round of activities.
Meanwhile, those remaining on the campus were not exactly idle. Two parties were given during vacation for the servicemen remaining on the campus. Christmas Eve, the scene was the Union Lounge where hostesses were members of the University Women's Club. Christmas night the Community Service League gave its regular Saturday night party at the Community building. In honor of the occasion special decorations were up and the hostesses wore formals. Herb Price's band played. Santa Claus was present at both parties to distribute gifts.
TRAVELERS---the "COLLEGE JEWELER"
(continued from page one) the actual possibilities of the obstacle course as they struggled to board a train. Any student who survived a session or two at the K.C. Union Station over the holidays should consider himself a fine physical specimen—though at the time he may feel very much like the middle sardine.
Chivalry was not entirely lacking during the holiday rush. There was one gentleman who offered his seat on a packed bus to a lady who was standing in the aisle. The dear woman was obviously overcome—she fainted. When she regained consciousness, she thanked the gentleman and he fainted. Any resemblance between this story and a similar one appearing in Joe Miller's joke book is quite understandable.)
A lightening factor on the holiday traffic was the general feeling of good will which accompanies the Christmas season.
Few people refuse to forgive the guy who's pushing to get home for Christmas—and honest, Mabel, you'll walk again.
SMALL TOWN---the "COLLEGE JEWELER"
(continued from page one) until you notice their white foreheads contrasted against reddened, leathery cheeks and noses. Farmers: Christmas Doesn't Change
Christmas day is the very same as it has always been. The dinner is at your house and all your cousins come in from the country with their children. You while away the time with the latter, rushing them upstairs when necessary and extracting turkey legs from their murderous grasp. Everybody eats so much they are openly miserable. Nancy, age 5, informs you she has named her new rag doll (a cross-eyed, orange-headed creation) after you, and the day is complete.
The next day—mainly because of a new snow suit—you decide to go ice skating. But just about that time the paper boy gets around to delivering the Minnihaha (bi-monthly) Gazette, and you read that on the very evening you came home two scouts fell through, and, although they were saved by comrades who have since been awarded Minnihaha's equivalent of the purple heart, the ice is not recommended.
You decide you were really too worn out anyway. You have been staying up until all hours telling the folks about how at school you don't drink or smoke and that yes you are "just pals" with the boys.
Two more days and it is time to head down the Kaw. The folks drag out the Ford, a few tractor gas coupons Cousin Bob contributed toward your education, and the family caliope churns back to civilization.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1943
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
There was plenty of activity on the sports front during the vacation. Dr. Allen's Jayhawks took victories from two army foes, Ft. Riley and Herington, and engaged in intensive practice sessions in preparation for the big double-header cage show in Kansas City tonight and tomorrow night and for the all-important Big Six conference race which will begin against Missouri Jan. 8 at Columbia.
developments brought Dr. Allen out for his yearly pessim which, for a change, most fans would be inclined
Basketball developments brought mistic predictions with which, for a to agree. Football letter awards were made, the return game with Hutchinson NAS was canceled, and Ray Kanehl of the physical education staff was appointed head track and field coach, replacing Henry Shenk, grid mentor.
Following is a summary of vacation sports activities in order of their occurrence;
Dec. 17 — Kansas took a thriller from Ft. Riley CRTC, 32 to 31 when Jayhawk Bill Lindquist threw in a looper from the corner after Wendell had dropped in the supposed winning free-throw with only 15 seconds remaining. The game was close all the way with the Centaurs leading 15 to 14 at the half. Dick Harp, former KU great and main cog in the CRTIC attack, was unable to make the game because of a schedule conflict. The Centaurs outscored the crimson and blue quintet 13 to 9 from the field but the Jayhawks scored 14 charity tosses to five for the soldiers.
Dec. 18- Election of the first woman in the history of the University of Kansas to the athletic board, approval of four other nominations, the awarding of 27 football letters and delayed approval of 10 track letters, and a discussion of spring sports featured the meeting of the University athletic board meeting.
Peggy Davis Elected
Peggy Davis, ASC president, was elected to the board after having been nominated by the Council. Bill Mowery, Salina, was elected student athletic representative. Don Hoag, Wichita, nominated by the alumni, was re-elected to the board, and W.W. Davis, Frank T. Stockton, and Dr. W.A. Treece, all nominated by the University Senate, were officially elected, Davis and Stockton for three-year terms, and Treecore for the one-year unexpired term vacated by J.B. Smith, of the School of Law, now in the service.
Approve Grid Letters
Twenty-seven men were approved or football awards. They were: John Agee, Alexander Banks, Dan Chase, Bill Chestnut, George Dick, Joe Dickey, Dick Dreher, Bob Faulkner, Robert George, Frank Gruden, Wayne Hird, Charles Keller, Ed Miller, Robert Miller, Charles Moffett, William Mowery, Over Donver, Warren Riegle, LeRoy Robinson, Gordon Stucker, Clifford Wade, Jack Walton, Lynn Williams, Junius Penny, Don Barrington, and Robert Carson.
Ten men were also approved for track letters from last season. They include: Bill Cole, Bob Dole, Bill
Haynes, Don Johnson, Max Kissell, Eugene Lea, Russell Mount, Tom Scofield, Valle Schloesser and Jim Walker.

Athletic Director Karl Klooz announced that plans were made to continue football for next fall with the same staff. Games have been arranged with all members of the Big Six conference and the contract with Denver University has one more year to run. That game is to be played in Denver late in September.
Dec. 22 — The return game with the Hutchinson naval air base quintet on Jan. 24 was canceled after Dr. F. C. Allen's recommendation to the athletic board for such action was favorably acted upon. Allen's letter informing Lt. William Hemnigh, Hutchinson coach, of the board's action, stated that "our game here was so highly unsatisfactory from the standpoint of good sportsmanship and general all around good feeling that I am positive no good purpose can be attained under conditions which prevailed here in our game Dec. 4."
Dec. 24—The Jayhawks repeated an earlier basketball victory over the Herington army air base, defeating the service team 22 to 15 on the latter's tiny cracker-box court. The game was a low-score affair with the score at the half being only 8 to 7 in favor of Kansas. Capt. Harold McSpadden was high-point man of the game with seven counters made on two field-goals and three free-throws.
Dec. 25—Announcement was made of Ray Kanehl's appointment as head track and field coach. Kanehl formerly was in charge of the physical education department at Wichita East High School and turned out more state-title track teams than any other coach in Kansas in recent years. His 1943 tracksters were undefeated, coping all their meets including the state title.

Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, basketball coach and head of the physical education department at the University, was recommended to the Douglas county selective service board No. 1, Dec. 22, by the board of county commissioners.
'Phog' Recommended To Join Draft Board
Dr. Allen will become an active member of the three-man board after official appointment by President Roosevelt. The county commissioners' recommendation was sent to Gov. Andrew Schoeppel, who will present it formally to the President. Brig. Gen. M. R. McLean, head of the state selective service board, was also notified of their action.
2 PHYSICIANS---action. Allen will replace the Rev. Alfrec J. Beil, of Lawrence, who resigned Dec. 5, after having served as a member of the board for a year.
"Iowa State had a strong team before the addition of West Texas' Brookfield. With the All-American added to their strength, the struggle for the flag, which without him might have been something of a race, will now be just a canter for Iowa State."

Oklahoma, with a team built around Allie Paine, All-Big Six star of last year, will be strong as usual, but there are a lot of dark horses in the offing.
"There is no telling what Nebraska may turn up with," said Allen. "And Kansas State's easy handling of Rockhurst with Missouri's strong showing against Illinois, defending champions of the Big Ten, indicate that there will be plenty of power in the race for the runner-up position. The Kansas team hasn't found itself yet. It may come to life any time now, but so far it has shown little to make it a threat to repeat in the race."
Dr. E. J. Curran gave $10,000 on Dec. 28 for the purpose of providing equipment, material and assistance for research for the department of ophthalmology in the School of Medicine. The gift was also made
Teachers, had enrolled at Iowa State in the naval aviation program, Dr. Allen made his prediction that Iowa State would be head and shoulders above the rest of the Big Six.

through the Endowment Association. Dr.Curran has been on the staff of the School of Medicine since 1911.
The School of Medicine disbursements from the new fund will be with the approval of a committee composed of Dr. H. R. Wahl, dean of the School of Medicine; the head of the ophthalmology department; and one other medical school faculty member to be appointed by the Chancellor.
To Train Ophthalmologists
A highly technical machine for re-education of injured eyes will possibly be among the first purchases. The cost is between $2,000 and $3,000. This is only one piece of the equipment now needed by the department and which will be useful in the post-war treatment of servicemen.

41ST YEAR
Work to Begin For Electricians Next Monday
Classes will begin Monday for electrician's mates of the naval training program, who will gradually replace the machinist's mates at the University, Fred S. Montgomery, University director of Naval Training, announced this morning.
The training program will be divided into three divisions: mathematics, electrical laboratory training, and shop practice, under the supervision of the School of Engineering and Architecture, with Prof J. O. Jones as acting dean.
Paul G. Hausman, assistant professor of shop practice, will have charge of the shop training. Dr.V.P. Hessler, professor of electrical engineering, will supervise the electrical laboratory training. Ellis B. Stouffer, dean of the, Graduate School and professor of mathematics, will direct the mathematics.
The subjects which the electrician's mates will take: mathematics, electrical theory, blue print reading, hand tool shop, motor shop, wiring shop, and electrical laboratory, Mr. Montgomery said.
The trainees will be housed in Frank Strong hall and will have mess quarters at the Union cafeteria.
Airport Runways To Be Relocated
The relocation of the runways at the Municipal airport to meet requirements of the Civil Aeronautics Authority has been authorized by the city council at the suggestion of Prof. H. S. Stillwell, head of the aeronautical engineering at the University.
This change is not necessary now to meet the needs of the army and navy program at the airport, but since the runways are being reconstructed it would be advantageous to make them comply with the CAA requirements so that they could be used after the war.
The city engineer, J. C. Harper, can relocate the runways as he finds necessary, providing he does not change the permanent lighting fixtures already installed. He is going to make an immediate investigation of how much work must be done to meet the CAA requirements.
Hard Coal Embargo Established in East
Washington, (INS) — Fuel Coordinator Harold' Ickes announced an immediate embargo on all shipments of anthracite west of the Pennsylvania- Ohio line which is estimated to save 300,000 tons of hard coal for the eastern seaboard in the next three months. The anthracite freeze will remain in effect until April 1.
At the same time, the fuel administrator disclosed that he is freezing 800.000 tons of anthracite in New York City for heating purposes in that area.
Chubb Recovers From Flu
Dr. H. B. Chubb, associate professor of political science, returned to his classes this afternoon after having been ill with influenza.
Underclassmen to Consult Faculty Advisers Todav
All freshmen and sophomores who did not consult their advisers today should do so tomorrow, Dean Gilbert Ulmer announced today.
The names of the students and the advisers, with the adviser's office hours, are posted on the bulletin board opposite the College office in Frank Strong hall, Dean Ulmer stated.
Generates Power Now From Gas
The University of Kansas is generating its own power again instead of using current supplied by the Kansas Electric Power company.
This is the first time since the war started that it has been possible for it to carry its entire load on gas. However, fuel oil commitments have been made which will have to be carried out, so the University will not switch entirely to gas fuel.
A total of 90 million feet of gas a day from the Cement, Okla., field was made available by the government in an effort to relieve the fuel shortage in this region. The local gas company notified the University, Haskell Institute, and the Lawrence Paper company that the gas pipeline serving this area had access to a part of that additional supply and that it could restore service to those customers with oil standbys.
The additional gas supply will be available for 40 or 50 days, which should carry through the worst of the winter. The University has had less than a week's supply of fuel in sight at any time for several months. It has been getting one tanker load a day, and three cars of oil a week from Kansas City. In severe cold the University has been known to use one car of oil a day. Gas officials said that every means of conserving fuel should continue to be employed.
Hospital Patients Celebrate Christmas
Patients in Watkins Memorial hospital celebrated Christmas day in the traditional fashion with the staff and the Red Cross substituting for Santa Claus. Turkey dinner was served to all those who were able to eat it, and there were presents for all from family and friends.
For all the men in the armed services, the Red Cross furnished Christmas packages containing shaving lotion, playing cards, writing paper, gum, soap, and wash cloth. Col W. L. McMorris, commander of the University army units, personally brought to the boys in the Army. Uncle Sam's best wishes for a Merry Christmas.
Of the 24 patients in the hospital, only 2 were civilians. Mrs. Ralph I. Canuteson, wife of Dr. Canuteson who is on the hospital staff, made Christmas cookies for all the patients.
London, (INS) — The British information services disclosed today that American pilots especially trained for night-fighter duty are now flying British Beau fighters in sorties from Italian and other bases. The first contingent went into action in Italy last September.
Berlin Burns On Anniversary Of London's Fire
Americans Fly British Fighters
(International News Service)
On the third anniversary of the "fire-blitz" which tore the heart out of London, Berlin burned fiercely in retribution today. It was the night of December 29-30, 1940 that the poorly defended British capital was assaulted by hundreds of German bombers, but the devastation wrought in that historic attack must have been vastly exceeded in the latest assault on Berlin.
More than two thousand tons of bombs were dropped upon the Nazi capital starting fires whose plumes of smoke and flames were visible miles away. Residents of the city were described as "stunned" by the sudden assault.
Attack France, Southern Germany This saturation attack was followed during the daylight hours by an intensive attack against the northern coast of France and on targets in southwest Germany.
Attack France. Southern Germany
The British and American air forces obviously has teamed up in another of their widespread offensives.
British eighth Advances
The British eighth army advances along the Adriatic coastal road in Italy toward the seaport of Pescaria, and the United States fifth army gained more advantageous positions in the sector south of Cassino.
Moscow reported German defense lines cracking all along the Dnieper river front, and to the north Soviet troops pounded toward the Polish border, only 48 miles away, following the capture of Korosten. Continued American advances on the New Britain and New Guinea fronts in the southwest Pacific were announced.
In Washington meanwhile, Gen. Peyython C. March, Chief of Staff in the last war, estimated that an Allied army of at least three million men will be required for a successful cross-channel invasion of Europe.
Filipino Graduate Visits the Campus
Lt. Honorato Echavez, a former Philippine student in the mining engineering department here, was a visitor on the campus yesterday.
Lt. Echavez was graduated in RO TC in 1943 and then went to Officers' Candidate school at Ft. Benning, Ga., where he received his commission as a second lieutenant on the anniversary of Pearl Harbor this year.
After visiting friends at the University, Lt. Echavez left for California to assume command of Philippine soldiers. His brother, Pastor Cinco Echavez, a graduate of the University in 1936, is now a Japanese prisoner of war in the Philippines.
OPA Announces Changes In Green Stamp Values
Washington, (INS) - The OPA announced today that sharp cuts will be made in the green-stamp cost of snapped beans, peas, tomatoes, and frozen fruits and vegetables when the January point values go into effect this Sunday. Jams, preserves, and marmalade will increase 2 points, it was announced.
Women's Closing Hours Extended for Year's Eve
Closing hours for University women will be 12:30 a.m. New Year's Eve, Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, announced today. New Year's night the closing hours will be 1 a.m. she said.
New Year's Eve for naval units of the University will be "just another Friday," according to Lt. A. H. Buhl, commanding officer.
Directory to Be Distributed Soon
With a cover of blue and a list of 3,861 names, the Student Directory will be ready for delivery at the Registrar's office the middle of next week, according to Anne Louise Rossman, editor.
A distinguishing feature of this year's Directory is the listing of the ASTP, Navy V-12 and V-5 students on the campus in addition to the customary roll of officers, faculty, employees, and civilian students of the University.
Departing further from the form of past years, this year's register will have no segregation of men and women, but all students will be under one listing. It will, however, remain the same size.
The delay in the publishing of the directory this year is due to the late beginning of th regular semester, Nov. 1, in contrast to the previous fall openings in September. Printing of the register started last Monday at the University Press.
Six New Members Elected to Sigma Xi
Sigma Xi, national scientific honorary society, elected six new members at a meeting Thursday, Dec. 16. Miss Beulah M. Morrison, secretary, announced yesterday.
Four students were elected to full membership. They were Frank Jirk, graduate student of chemistry; Raymond Stoenner, graduate student of chemistry; Edward J. Groth, graduate student of physics; and Dorothy M. Sutter, graduate student of psychology.
Arthur H. Benner, a senior in the department of electrical engineering, and Mou Hui King, a senior in the department of mechanical engineering, were elected to associate membership.
Dr. N. P. Sherwood, chairman of the department of bacteriology spoke on recent developments of the serological tests used in the diagnoses of syphilis.
Opposition Terms Willkie's Return a Political Move
Topeka, (INS) — Plans are being worked out today to bring Wendell Willkie to Kansas, a move interpreted by anti-Willkie forces as designed to capture the Kansas-Republican convention delegation for the Hoosier candidate. Willkie will address a school teachers' meeting at Emporia in February, a few days after the annual Republican "love-feiek" in Topeka.

Sachem is the honorary society for senior men. It choosesmen of high character who have been leaders in student affairs. Membership is by election, and is announced in a public ceremony.
Student Talent To Be Featured In Floor Show
The entertainment for the New Year's party to be given in Heeh auditorium from 9 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. Saturday will feature local talent in a floor show, as well as Matt Betton and his orchestra, Eugenia Hepworth, vice-president of the Union Activities committee, announced.
Miss Gardner, Jerry Gallagan, and Stan Hagler were in charge of arranging the program, according to Miss Henworth.
Betty Cohagen and Shirley Rauch will sing; Jean Richardson will dance, and Robert Provart and Ted Lehmann will do some novelty numbers. Helen Gardner and Joe Epstein will combine their talents in a comedy number. The master of ceremonies will be Wallace Grimes.
"The tickets are going fast," Miss Hepworth stated. "We are planning for a big crowd and lots of fun with the confetti, serpentine, and whistles."
Far East Is On Display In Museum
Bits of Weaving Dave Meaning
A special exhibit of Chinese costumes and embroidery will be on display Jan. 1, in the north gallery on the second floor in Spooner-Thayer museum.
During the reign of the Manchus, perhaps no court in the world was more brilliant in color than that of Peking. Princes and Mandarians in their dragon robes and princesses in their robes with the Phoenix, the emblem of the Empress, on them and in coats of floral and butterfly designs all mingled colorfully in the great court yards of the Forbidden City.
Twelve beautiful Mandarin coats and a complete costume for a Chinese bride will be shown along with many dance scarfs, sleeve bands, Mandarin squares, and pieces of rare antique KO-ssu weaves.
The animals, flowers, and all the bits of nature woven into these old Chinese pieces have particular meanings. On the bottoms of all the Mandarin coats are diagonal stripes of various colors that represent the waves of eternity. Fusing from them are always three rocks. If a bird is on the center rock, the person wearing the robe was a civil official; and if a quadruped site on the center rock, the weaver was a military official. Two Imperial dragons usually appear in brilliant colors in the attitude of trying to grasp a flaming pearl. The peart represents truth; the dragon represents wisdom, symbolizing "Wisdom Pursuing Truth." The dragon is always clutching the sacred fruit, the peach which is the symbol of longevity. Butterflies, embroidered in lovely colors on the robes, are a sign of love. Bats, peacocks, lotus blossoms, and peacocks all have their own meanings.
Every bit of embroidery in the costumes and pieces has its own (continued to page four)

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
The Russian government has announced that it will replace the Communist "Internationale" with a new state song as the national anthem of Soviet Russia. This decision follows logically the dissolution of the Comintern and is an indication of a changing Russian spirit.
Russia To Replace Communist Anthem
Russia is no longer an underdog. It is one of the most powerful nations in the world. It has been steadily victorious while other nations were meeting defeat. It will be a powerful influence in post-war reconstruction. These facts have been presented to the Russian people, and by the force of propaganda in a country where propaganda is a force.
A new song or slogan has little effect in democracies, but the changing of the Russian national anthem has a profound effect on the Russian people. To the rest of the world, it shows that Russia is no longer communistic. Russia is now imperialistic and nationalistic. It is demanding its place among the great nations.
The "Internationalale" calls on the "prisoners of starvation" and the "wretched of the earth" to rise and establish an "International Soviet." But the Russian people are no longer prisoners of starvation or the wretched of the earth. They are now part of the victorious armies, part of the powerful Russian state which will play a large part in the post-war world.
So the song is obviously obsolete. A new spirit is driving the Russians on and this new spirit of power, nationalism and patriotism must be indicated in a new national anthem.

Rock Chalk Talk
By HANNA HEDRICK
Rings on their fingers: It was a bright Christmas, if not white. Now sporting sparklers that Santa Claus did not bring are Shirley Bales. Theta, Betty Dunlap, A.D. Pi, Martha Euler, Chi Omega, Jane Ham, Kappa, Claire Arnold, Ruth Bletian and Suzanne Schmidt, Corbin hall. Which definitely puts them on the ineligible list for the rest of you wolves.
Bellet on her toes: With Pfc. J. F. Kelsey back in town (the attended the University last year). Marilyn McEwen was lit up like the proverbial Christmas tree — in spirit only, and not aided by any "Christmas cheer." "Mac" received not one, but two gold matching rings, which are worn together and have the Kappa and Sigma Nu crests on them.

Jingle all the way: Boyden Crouch, army medic, set out to see his girl who lives in the land of milk and cheese (Wisconsin), and to find out if what the chamber of commerce says is true—"If she has
dinplies on her knees, she cats Wisconsin cheese." (It's said that he also investigated the beer that made Milwaukee famous.) He took a bright diamond ring along for the beautious Wisconsin maid, and arrived home just in time to get a microscope and a music box out of hock.

They go well together: The Huebert twins came out with diamond-set Phi Delt rings for their gals. While Marian Hasty was looking at hers, she slipped on the steps of Fraser and for the second time this year, sprained her ankle.
And then the parents came across: Barbara Wynn, Pi Phi, received a beautiful diamond ring, which is said to equa] the Rock of Gibraltar in magnitude. Thetas Norma Lutz and Dineen Somers, also received the same kind of a gift from their parents.
And then as one "sad sack" put it,
"The only diamonds I've got are in the back of my wrist watch."

Publication Not Halted By Strike
INDEPENDENT LAUNDRY and DRY CLEANERS
Phone 432
Products of Yankee ingenuity, two editions of the Salt Lake City Tribune now on display in the Kansas news room, demonstrate just what can be done when the printers of a newspaper strike.
The strike, which started on Thanksgiving Day, prevented the publication of a paper that day, but the papers has issued a regular four-page edition since then, and an eight-page paper on Sunday. Formerly it was a 20 to 40-page paper in two sections with four sections on Sunday.
740 Vt.
To produce the paper, typists first typed the copy in the actual size to be used. The copy and pictures were then pasted on page size dummies. The dummies were photographed, and engravings made of the photographs. From the engravings the regular stereotype and press work followed.
The large streamers of the editions are set in hand type, but the smaller heads are typed by bulletin typewriters, and the smallheads are in capital letters of the regular typewriter.
Matt Heuertz, graduated in 1943 and sports editor of the Kansan last year, sent one of the papers to Mr. E. F. Beth, professor of journalism. Until recently Heuertz worked on the Tribune. The other edition was sent by Miss Mary E. Montgomery, Rupert, Idaho, a former student of Mr. Beth at the University of Idaho.

Women Alone in Reception Line To Greet "Little Leap Year" 1944
Nineteen fourty-four will be Leap Year.
Therefore, it will not be out of order when entirely feminine watch-night groups witness the arrival of the thinly clad youngster.
Since the military trainees on the campus are denied the privilege of the New Year's Eve celebrations, and without the men, no parties of any magnitude would be considered advantageous. The big campus party is set for Saturday, New Year's night, instead of eve.
Every day will be Sadie Hawkins Day, according to American tradition, and little 1944 is supposed to be the messenger that brings the women the privilege of proposing. That the dance committee is headed this year by a woman has no bearing whatsoever on the fact that the big party is being given at a time when women have the opportunity to pop the question, but on the mere fact that Saturday night is the only time that the men can come. And men are the ones best trained to lead in the dance, anyway.

College Professor Forms Exam-Completion Theory
Hays, Kan., (ACP)—The best college students finish their examinations either first or last, says Donald M. Johnson of the Fort Hays Kansas State College psychology department. Mediocre students, he says, usually complete their papers in the middle third of the period.
Dr. Johnson's theory is that the first third of the students are speedy because of superior intelligence; the last third are plodders who get good grades by pains and persistence; the middle third are students who aren't very much interested in the subject.

She drives a school bus on its regular route every morning down Tennessee street, through town, up on the campus, and then out to the West Hills district to pick up children going to the Pinckney school.
Coed Drives Bus To Help Out Driver Shortage
J. J. Wilson, manager of the Lawrence Rapid Transit company, admits that if all the woman drivers were like Miss Corbin, he would have no hesitation about hiring them.
Miss Corbin, who had a driving job this summer at the Sunflower plant, immediately applied for a job when she discovered that there was a shortage of drivers in Lawrence. She drives an extra bus when the load of traffic is unusually heavy.

Barrington Scores 28 Points To Defeat K-State Wildcats
The Jayhawks have found themselves. With Don "Duck" Barrington dropping in the amazing total of 28 points, Kansas rebounded from a 31 to 31 halftime deadlock with a final half splurge that sent the fighting Kansas State Wildeats down in defeat, 62 to 44, last night in Kansas City's Municipal auditorium.
In the first han of n. 4,000 fans, the Missouri Tigers nosed out the Washburn Ichabods, 29 to 28. Tonight, it will be Missouri and Kansas in the finals of this pre-season "Big Six clinic." Kansas State will battle it out with Washburn, whom they have previously whipped. On comparison of scores against a common Joe, Washburn, and on last night's performances, Kansas is the outstanding favorite over Missouri. Phoos 'Prophency Comes True
Dr. Allen recently prophesied that Kansas might come to life anytime now. But the peak his boys reached in the final half of last night's battle was far above his fondest expectations and came much sooner than expected.
All of the fun came in the first half when Barrington, who delivered newspapers in high school rather than go out for football or basketball, just couldn't miss slipping the ball through the net. He set a torrid pace, scoring 10 field goals and 4 free tosses for 23 tallies. Despite a bothersome charley-horse, he tallied seven baskets in the first 9 minutes of play. His favorite overand shot was working to perfection and his opponents couldn't guard it. Wildcats Break Loose
Kansas at one time in the first half enjoyed a 21 to 10 advantage. then the Wildcats broke loose with 'ervor, and using a fast break 'notted the count at 27-all with three minutes to go.
Bob Schwartz. Norville Gish, Myron Foveaux and Lee Boyntz paced the attack. It way Boyntz's basket which gave Cliff Rock team a 20 to 27 lead. Then Barrington flipped in a pain. Doyen knotted the count at 31-all seconds before the gun sounded.
Allen Sends in New Team
Kansas made a rout of it in the last half. The tired Wildcats couldn't find the range and the Jayhawks sled in the goals. Coach Allen sent in an entire new team in the final three minutes.
Barrington, who played a marvelous rebounding game, was given a great ovation when he left the floor at the half.

A tip-in shot in the last $2\frac{1}{2}$ minutes of play by Bob Heinsohn, 6-oat 5-inch freshman, gave Missouri a thrilling 1-point victory over Washburn university, 29 to 28.

Kansas Plays M.U. Feb. 1
Actually, it was fortunate for the Jayhawks that the Ichabods did miss. Kansas opens their Big Six conference campaign at Columbia. Jan. 8, and tonight's competition against the Tigers should get them ready to start out right in their tremendous task of retaining the Big Six crown. Kansas previously played Washburn at Topeka and had little trouble in winning. A return game with the Ichabods is scheduled for Feb. 1, in Hoch auditorium.
Dan Pippin, 17-year-old Tiger frosh, was everything his name implied as he led the Missouri attack. The rangy blond scored 11 points and got most of the Tiger rebounds.
Kirby and Bangs Become Blimp Pilots
Two former University of Kansas students are now navy blimp pilots, the alumni office has learned. They are Lt. (jg) William R. Kirby, Coffeyville; and Lt. (jg) Frank S. Banges, Salina. Lt. Bangs received his bachelor of science degree here in 1940. Lt. Kirby received his bachelor of arts degree from the University in 1935 and his bachelor of law degree in 1939.

From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Dr. F. C. Allen's recent letter to Ralph Cannon, sports writer for Esquire, concerning the latter's recent sports poll, is extremely interesting, as it presents in full detail Allen's argument for the 12-foot basket. It actually leaves little doubt in the reader's mind that the good doctor knows what he is talking about.
Cannon's poll disclosed hte results of the polling of the public, sports-casters and writers, and coaches concerning the raising of the baskets. While the public, as quizzed by Esquire, favored the new goals, the sports-casters, editors, and coaches contacted turned thumbs down on the idea. Allen in his letter, reiterates his arguments in favor of the change.
change.
Few Have Seen Higher Goals
Dr. Allen doubt if 10 per cent of the coaches in the nation have ever seen a 12 foot goal. The University of Kansas has had them set up in its gymnasium for 15 years for the purpose of teaching the Allen disciples the art of properly arching the ball. And that was one of the contributing factors to the fact that Allen's Jayhawkers twice defeated Hank Iba's quintet last season with Kurland in the line-up both games.
The fact that the tall boys can prevent the ball from going through the basket by goal tending, is not one of the Doctor's objections to the 10-foot basket at all. Rather, he points out in his letter to Cannon, the discrimination is in favor of the offense rather than the defense.
"If the ball is on the rim of the basket," he wrote, "the offensive man may push it in, strike the ball, bat it in, or strike the rim when he dunks his arm about eight inches through the rim with the ball, and the goal counts in all of these situations. But a defensive man guarding the goal may not tap the ball or reach over the perpendicular plane of the basket in knocking the ball away from the hoop. Again, if the ball should be on the edge of the basket and the defensive man should knock it off or touch the goal two points are scored for the offensive side."
Dr. Allen was featured in the December issue of the Southern Coach and Athlete, with his article, "Vital Basketball Fundamentals in War-Time America." Dr. Allen states in the beginning of his article that "so many changes have occurred in the basketball coaching personnel in our American high schools and colleges

Nazis Prepare Allied Blitz West Front
(International News Service)
difications mounted today that ph Hitler anticipates new Al-invasion of Nazi Europe within ew weeks.
While American and British umbers attacked the quaking contint in record strikes, dispatches located Hitler's conviction that the ie of great test is almost at hand. these included a report that the rer had ordered all military
as cancelled immediately and issued instructions that every vision of the Nazi army be brought the full peak of its strength by n. 15.
This development coincided with new Year messages from Admiral seniz and Marshall Goering to the man Navy and Air Force, stressing the difficulties that have been faced and expressing devout hope at no Nazi warrior will flinch in the face of even greater trials to come.
Victory or Collapse
The stake for the Germans in the present conflict is "victory or collapse" Goering warned.
The process of aerial destruction reached a new peak of intensity throughout the daylight hours when hundreds of American and British bombing and fighter planes attacked targets in France and Germany. Observers said that never before had such gigantic fleets of planes filled the skies. It appeared that the current offensive will exceed even that of the previous 24 hours when more than 3,000 Allied planes dropped a devastating weight of bombs into German territory.
Russia Sweeps Forward
There was every indication the Russian winter offensive was moving forward with unbroken speed. In the Southwest Pacific, United States Marines tightened their hold of Cape Gloucester and its valuable airstrip taken from the Japanese in a bitter four-day battle.
Mortar Board Plans Tea For Sophomore Women
Plans for a tea to be given for sophomore women who were on the Dean's honor roll last year were discussed at a meeting of Mortar Board yesterday, Margaret Butler Lillard, in charge of the tea, announced yesterday.
The tea, to be at the home of Mrs. Deane W. Malott, will probably be given the last of January.
Reserved seat basketball tickets will not be issued to the student body until after the game with Pittsburg State Teachers College, Monday, Jan. 3. Although a few reserved seat season tickets have been purchased by Lawrence people, the general seating plan for the game Monday will be similar to that of previous 1943 games, and University students will be admitted upon presentation of their activity books. No seats will be on the stage.
Basketball Seats Issued Tuesday
Students who have not already arranged to have a reserved seat ticket held for them may do so by leaving the basketball slip from their activity books and $1 at the business office in the Administration building. Officials hope that distribution of the season tickets can be made sometime next week.

Raouires Preparation
The following events briefly outline the top military events of the year:
The new course for the electrician's mates has taken much rearranging of Fowler Shops and the electrical engineering laboratories. announced Dean Jones of the School of Engineering and Architecture today.
Overshadowing all other events of the year 1943 on the campus are the military issues — ranging from rumors to the real thing. Since last year at this time the University has acquired an atmosphere which is unmistakably in keeping with the times.

Have You Made Your Resolutions?
By Jac. Nodler and Dolores Sulzman
By Jack, Nouret and Dolores Suzunin
At least 10 of the University's faculty members are starting the New Year right, for they have made New Year resolutions and are submitting them "on the record."
Dr. Bert Nash, professor of education, resolves "to get a 30-hour day for the Army program to operate in." He plans to take the matter up with the President in the near future.
Miss Kathryn Tissue, assistant professor of home economics, said, "I resolve to give all my students A's and keep them happy." The reason back of this resolution, she explained, was that she would have so much fun breaking it!
Miss Helen R. Hoopes, upon first being broached, said, "To bell with New Year's resolutions." Reconsidering, she resolved "not to tell all the bad things I could about my students."
Dr. John W. Ashton, professor of English, refused to budge from a totally negative attitude. "I resolve not to make any New Year's resolutions."
In a more serious vein, Miss Mabel A. Elliott, associate professor of sociology, said, "I am resolved to do all I can to promote a plan for World Federation and the elimination of future holocausts."
Another faculty member committing himself to a sweeping reform program was Sam F. Anderson, instructor in German and Russia "In 1944 I resolve to keep my desk clean," he said grimly.
Miss Maud Ellsworth, assistant professor of education, resolves "to do all I can to see that the children of Kansas have good teachers this year."
Elmer Beth, acting chairman of the department of journalism, stated, "I resolve to concentrate on those things that make a difference."

South Hall of Fraser To Be a Study Hall
The hall at the south end of Fraser hall, the home economics department, is being redone in order to be used as a study hall, according to Miss Lucille Aust, instructor in the department. Last summer all the old plaster was torn out and new put in.
ASTP's Will Begin Course In Mechanical Drawing
The School of Engineering and Architecture is in the process of getting ready for the ASTP's who will start a mechanical drawing course on Feb. 9.
The hall that connects the various rooms in that department is being repainted, and the woodwork is being redone. Doors will shut off that part of the hall from the rest of the hall. Study tables and bookcases with reference books will be placed in the new room to be used as a study room for Home Economics students.
Dean Jones announced today that there will be 550 men enrolled in the course. Each student will have six hours work a week, making a total of 3300 hours all together.
Party Will Greet New Year Tomorrow With Entertainment, Betton's Music,and Food
Matt Betton and his orchestra, a familiar group to many K.U. students, will be featured at the New Year's party in Hoch auditorium tomorrow night. Local talent will furnish the entertainment for the floor show, Eugenia Hepworth, vice-president of the Union Activities committee, stated.
Campus Is Frozen In Winter Picture Of White Beauty
"Tickets and reservations for tables have been going like hot
Cross currents of warm and cool air combined with the moisture of the atmosphere to paint the campus a picture of hoar frost-laden foliage this morning.
It was one of those infrequent occasions when Kansas produces in snow and ice a scene far prettier than the artist can paint.
Students en route to earliest classes in the darkness were unaware of the scene that had been prepared for them in the after part of the night. It was not until the sun arose, dispelling the fog and revealing the frost-covered trees and bushes glistening above the already snow-covered hill, that they realized what had happened.
A few photographers managed to record the picture before the heat of the sun's rays spoiled it.
Sales of Calendars Exceed Expectations
Although fewer copies of the University calendar for 1944 were printed than last year, the sales have already exceeded expectations. Beverly Bohan, editor, said at the close of the first day's sales.
The calendars went on sale yesterday from booths in Frank Strong, Fraser, Marvin, the Memorial Union, and Lindley halls. Copies are also being sold at several down town stores. Besides the regular purchases, many persons have left orders to have the calendar mailed out, Miss Bohhan said.
The booths will close tomorrow at noon but calendars will be sold again Monday through Tuesday or until the limited supply is sold.
Credit for the success of the calendar sales should go to the corps*of super salesmen who volunteered. Miss Bohan said.
Machinist's Mates Meet Centaurs Again
The University calendar is an annual project of the All-Student Council.
The Kansas University Naval Training School (machinist's mates) will take on the Ft. Riley Centaurs in a return game in Hoch auditorium at 7:45 p.m. next Tuesday, Jan. 4.
In their previous meeting the cavalrymen had little difficulty in handling the Kansas' sailors and won by a quite comfortable margin. Against the Kansas Jayhawks, however, CRTC was nosed out by one point in the last five seconds, 32 to 33. In that game Dick Harp, star of the team and former Jayhawk, was absent because of conflicting military orders.
cakes." Miss Hepworth said. "We expect a complete sellout of all reservations before the party, but arrangements are being made to sell tickets that night. If there are no reserved tables left tomorrow night, couples will be admitted to the dance and can sit in the permanent seats."
Vocal solos by Betty Cohagen and Shirley Rauch, a dance by Jean Richardson, and novelty numbers by Ted Lehmann and Robert Provart will furnish part of the entertainment. Helen Gardner and Joe Epstein will present a comedy number. Wallace Grimes, with the usual banter of a big-time master of ceremonies, will introduce the numbers. "Confetti, serpentine, and whelts will carry out the spirit of the season," Miss Hepworth said. "Our New Year's Eve celebration may be a day late, but our fun won't be lessed."
Indirect lighting will lend atmosphere. Cokes and cheese, ham, or peanut butter and jelly sandwiches will be on sale at one end of the auditorium. Tables for four will be arranged around the dance floor and on the stage.
Closing hours for women will be 1 a.m. according to Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser to women.
"Last year's party was considered an overwhelming success," Miss Heworth said. "And we are planning for everyone to have a hirriously good time at this gala affair," she declared.
Editor's note: By far the most important events of the year concerned changes brought about by war-training programs. It was impossible to choose any one of these events as the top story of the year.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Allied Victory Is Hope for New Year
Tomorrow a new year starts, and 1944 will be heralded not only with the usual memories and resolutions, but also with a hope for a final victory and the end of the war.
Memories of the past year will come to mind. The battles of the war stack up on the side of the Allies, and our victory seems more assured. More men are in uniform, and production of weapons and war materials has skyrocketed.
This year, especially in colleges, the atmosphere has changed. The memory of a different college life—one with perhaps recreation but more meaning—will persist. For the coming year, those students in uniform hope for more action, hope for a greater part in the army and navy.
Men overseas will celebrate the new year in some way, American custom not being forgotten. They hope, too, for a victorious year, and above all a chance to celebrate the next year here in the United States.
Everyone in his own particular world is looking forward to an eventful 1944. Each has his own individual hopes, but all hopes hang on an Allied victory soon.
President Ill With Grippe
President in Washington,, —(INS)— President Roosevelt was ordered to bed today by his physician as the result of a slight attack of gripe. The President's cold of the last two days had turned over night into an attack of gripe, and Mr. Roosevelt was running a slight temperature, it was announced.
MILITARY CHANGES--already lettered three years at another institution, will be eligible for Big Six sports in wartime only if they are military trainees assigned to a school for training. By this decision the conference made it plain that neither Bob Brumley, Sooner fullback, and Navy V-12 instructor, nor Bull Reece and Jack Morton, Missouri civilians playing their fourth varsity seasons, would be eligible for future wartime competition. Kansas questioned the eligibility of all these players during the 1943 season.

(continued from page one) serious fire on the campus since Fowler shops burned during the first World War on May 9, 1910. Invaluable charts, plastic models, and slides were irreplaceably lost. Dr. H. C. Tracy, professor of anatomy, lost nearly all of his personal library.
In order to synchronize the regular University course with the military training programs, the administration set up a three-semester plan which began Nov. 1. This necessitated a five-week session which started Sept. 28 and continued until the real semester started. Kansas Beats Missouri
Henry Shenk's valiant band of Jayhawks upset M.U.'s mighty tigers 7 to 6, in one of the most thrilling battles in the 52-year old series of K.U.-M.U. homecoming meets on Nov. 20.
Students, machinists' mates, and Navy air cadet trainees turned out in force on June 18 and 19 to struggle with the flooding Kaw river, on its biggest rampage in over 20 years.
Several attempts were made during the year to adopt satisfactory closing hours for women students. During the summer session the All-Student Council stated 10:30 o'clock hours for Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday; 11 o'clock for Wednesday and Sunday; and 1 o'clock for Friday and Saturday. Beginning with the fall session Friday and Saturday hours were changed to 12:30 and 12:45, respectively.

Betty Liebrand, Delta Gamma, does not profess to a dual personality—but those who know her evidently feel she has something along that line. Betty's father gave her a musical powder box and a .22 riff for Christmas. She says she employed the latter on a deer hunting expedition in Colorado over the holidays — but succeeded in doing nothing but missing a woodpecker.
Tired of ti all: If and when Tom Bemis, All Student Council member and YMCA cabinet member, returns to the Hill, his first few weeks will be well taken up with disciplinary appointments. About a month and a half ago, Tom disappeared and the Delts and the Bemis's were in a great quandary as to his whereabouts. Next week a telegram arrived: "Changed my mind about things. See you fellows in Europe after the war." And then silence.
Since missing class is a boardable offense, some enterprising active figures Tom has 40,000 blows coming.

Shortly before the organization of the All Student Council, the MSC and WSGA convened to guarantee the right of the Negro to attend the Junior Prom. The action came as a result of petitions circulated on the campus charging discrimination against Negro students.

The new Military Science building had a gala opening in spite of bad weather on the night of Dec. 10.
(continued from page four) the liberal readjustment of the conference athletic elegibility standards, whereby navy trainees will not have any wartime competition after March 1 counted against them after the war.
Dale Arbuckle, Oklahoma U. athletic director, explains that the above means trainees playing their first varsity football this past season will have three more years of varsity football after the war ends, regardless of their participation this past season, or even in the coming 1944 season if the war is still on them.
Big Six conference dads voted to give all freshmen who enrolled on or after last March 1, four full years of varsity competition, as well as all future freshmen enrolled at a Big Six school. This applies to civilians as well as military trainees.

If there are a dozen red roses decorating the Sigma Chi house Friday night, they will have been sent by residents of Corbin. The girls spent the entire week worrying about how they were going to indulge in the pleasant traditions of midnight, New Year's Eve and still comply with strict Corbin enforcement of Friday night closing hours. Then the Kansan came out with the welcome news that bed time for Hill women had been extended until 12:30. Army men of the Sigma Chi house are responsible. They saw fit to plan a party on Dec. 30 and announced that despite of hell and high water it would not break up until 12:15.
Former Professor Dies in New York
Frederick Hill Wood, 66, former associate professor of law at the University and attorney who argued successfully the case involving the constitutionality of the National Recovery Act, died suddenly Tuesday. His death occurred in New York where, at the time of his death, he was practicing law with the firm of Cravath, DeGersdoff, Swaine, and Wood.
Wood received his bachelor of arts degree at the University in 1897 and his law degree here in 1899 when he was admitted to the bar in Kansas. After his graduation he was associate professor in the School of Law for two years before going to Kansas City, Mo., where he practiced for many years.

A Quiet New Year's Eve Predicted Celebration to Be Tomorrow Night
Tonight is one New Year's Eve that will not come in to the accompaniment of bells, whistles, and the usual merrymaking. Some students may stay up to greet the New Year, but the campus will probably be quiet compared to former years.
Only one party, the ASTP Co. A dance, will be in progress when the New Year arrives. Closing hours for women are 12:30 a.m. so a few "hen parties" may be given.
Students will just have to use their imaginations Saturday night and pretend it's 24 hours earlier when the clock strikes midnight at the New Year's party in Hoch auditorium.

Weekend guest was Ruth Shepard of Kalamazoo, Mich.

Library Receives Mrs. Wriston's Book
A privately printed copy of "A Pioneer's Odessy," by Jennie Atcheson Wriston, mother of Henry M. Wriston, president of Brown University, has been presented to Watson library at the University of Kansas.
The volume, which was sent to the library through Chancellor Deane W. Malott by Dr. Wriston, is the story chiefly of a trip by covered wagon from Pleasant Hill, Mo., through northeastern Kansas up through Nebraska, then along the Platte river, finally following the South Platte into Colorado at Russellville and Rock Ridge.
It is an interesting story of pioneering, and of interest especially to Kansans.

Kansas Beats Missouri 34-27 To Take Tourney
Trailing 7 to 18 at the intermission, the Kansas Jayhawks came from behind to defeat the Missouri Tigers, 34 to 27, last night in the Municipal auditorium in Kansas City for their second win over Big six foes in successive nights.
Thus, the Jay hawks became "champs" of the two-day pre-conference basketball clinic which was directed by Reaves Peters, Big Six commissioner. Washburn also had to stage a late rally to down the Kansas State Wildcats, 33 to 28, to even the score between the two teams. K-State held an early season victory over the Ichabods.
Make Good Come-back
Missouri held on to an 11-point lead at the half, with Kansas coming back in the final period to score 20 points to the Tiger's 9. Even the night before when Kansas soundly routed K-State, 62 to 44, the halftime score was only 31-all.
Kansas displayed that same raggedness in the first half they showed against some of the service foes earlier in the month. Big Don Barrington, who scored 28 points against K-State the night before, was held to a pair of baskets in the first half by Tigers' Dan Pippin and Benny Arbeitman. However, "Duck" had his chances to score as he missed tight straight charity tosses before finally hitting one. Barrington counted 13 points to take high scoring honors for the night.
Dr. Allen has at last found a winning combination with Barrington and Lindquist at forwards, Moffett at center, and McSpadden and Stucker at guards. This five-except or the first half last night-performed very smoothly and showed much promise. Lindquist and McSpadden contributed eight and seven points respectively last night and played bang up floor games. Moffett and Stucker, gridmen who were late starters, have been coming along fast. Both are excellent ball handlers.

Six minutes after the last half got under way, Washburn was out in front, 21 to 18. Seconds later the Big Six team knotted the count at 23-all and again at 25-25, but the Topekans took command with eight minutes to go and never gave up the lead.

lead.
Again it was lack of substitutes which cost the Wildcats. The starting five had plenty of speed and scoring punch, but wilted late in the game as it did against the Jayhawks in the opening round. K-State could only collect 10 points in the final half, while Washburn dropped in 23.
Alpha Chi, Corbin Kappa, Delta Gamma Win in Basketball
Alpha Chi Omega, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Delta Gamma, and Corbin hall won the first four games of the girls' intramural basketball season which opened last night.
I am opened last night.
Defeating the Theta's, 33-15, the Delta Gammas played a fine game. Doris and Betty Bixby played well as guards for the Delta Gamma's, and Leeta Marks was the high-scoring forward.

Forwards Beverly waters and Audrey Harris scored the 24 points for the Alpha Chi's, which gave them a 24-13 victory over the Gamma Phi's. Bobbie Sue McCluggage and Joanne Johnson, Gamma Phi forwards, scored several points in the second half, after trailing 13-1 at the half.
I at the man.
The Kappa team showed up well against the Alpha Delta Pi team, winning by a score of 30-15. Jean Hoffman and Margaret Butler Lillard scored for the Kappas, and Marjorie Free played a good game as guard for the winning team.

The hard-driving Oklahoma Sooners crushed the powerful Norman Navy Zoomers—their home town foes—31 to 27 Wednesday night to become champions of the eighth annual Oklahoma City Invitational basketball tournament. With Allie Paine and Kenny Pryor, freshmen sensation from Oklahoma City Capitol Hill, leading the way the Sooners should now rank nearly even with the star-studded Iowa State Cyclones as pre-Big Six favorites. In beating the Zoomers for the second straight time, the Sooners showed much class, for the navy team held victories over the Hutchinson NAS team which licked Kansas and the Oklahoma Aggies, who in turn beat the best in the east on their recent jaunt. Norman NAS, despite the 7-foot Kurland, beat out the Aggies in the semi-finals, 25 to 19. The Ibamen took third place winning 45 to 39 over Southwestern (Texas.)
At Iowa State Coach Lou Menze is indeed a happy man. The All-American Price Brookfield has broken into his starting lineup and will start in the next game against Drake. Three regulars from last year's team—the Wende twins, Roy and Ray, and Gene Oulman, 6 ft. 3 inch center—are back besides regulars from other college quintets. Bob Sauer was a guard on the Washington U. (St. Louis) team last year, and Lyle Naylor held down a berth with Drake. Ray Wende was high scorer for the Cyclones last year, and, coupled with Brookfield, this combination should really keep the baskets swishing. The latter alone should be enough for that. As Dr. Allen commented, "Give Coach Louis Menze, powerful lefthanded 6-foot 5-inch, 230-pound, All-American Price Brookfield, an agile co-eed, and a versatile Phi Beta Kappa, and he can defeat a majority of the wartime Big Six cage teams this year."

Cage League Schedule Made
The Lawrence Community basketball league will begin its 1944 schedule at 7:30 Wednesday night when Mayor C. B. Russell, Lawrence, throws out the ball to start the contest between V-12 and the S.O.W. Ads. in the Lawrence Community building.
Following the V-12-S.O.W. game, the Ship's Company will oppose the Blanks in the second game of the evening.
flower Ordnance Works, the Ads and the Techs, will, along with the Irish Rascals, a town team, and the Blanks, a hill team composed of students and instructors, uphold the civilian honors in the schedule.
Seven teams are included in the 42-game schedule arranged by Chief Yeoman George C. Starkey of the Naval Training School. Three Navy teams, V-12, Machinists Mates, and Ship's Company, will find plenty of competition in the four civilian teams in the schedule, according to Chief Starkey. Two teams from the Sun-
Chief Starkey said that the Army was invited to participate, but its evening study hours prevented acceptance.
"The teams appear to be evenly matched" Chief Starkey commented, "And although the Machinist's Mates were undefeated last year, I do not expect them to repeat."
The schedule, to be finished March 15, calls for two games every Wednesday and Thursday night, forcing the teams to play consecutive nights several times, and, in a few instances, requiring a team to play a double header.
do not expect that Ensign Ware will coach the V-12 team, Chief Hantze and MM, and Chief Starkey will guide the Ship's Company team. Robert M. Nelson, 1611 Tennessee street, will coach the Blanks.
