Naval. Air Battle Amid Marshalls Began Today
(International News Service)
Invasion of the Jap-held Marshall islands by powerful United States forces is underway. Admiral Chester W. Nimitz announced in a communique today. This American invasion force is composed "of all types," including amphibious equipment, Admiral Nimitz disclosed. "The objective is the capture of the Marshall islands," the communique said.
The progress of large scale American naval action against the Japanese-held Marshall islands in the Pacific was shrouded in mystery today, with all indications pointing to early announcement of full details in the U.S. Navy's great onslaught upon Japan's powerful fortified island group guarding the supply and truck line. The majority of present reports continued to come from the Tokyo radio. These broadcasts hinted at commando raids by American units at outlying points in the sprawling archipelago.
In Italy meanwhile, Allied amphibious forces stormed their way into the outskirts of Campoleone and Cisterna along the Appian way south of Rome. Wide spread Allied air activity which carried American bombers again to Klagenfurt in southern Austria and over wide reaches of the battlefront again accompanied the ground advances.
Allied planes based in the British isles continued attacks upon the Nazi continent of Europe although Berlin now reported by Stockholm to be dying "slowly and painfully" apparently was spared during the night.
Soviet troops forging ahead south of Leningrad approached the old Estonian frontier as German resistance weakened steadily.

Medics, Nurses Graduate; Face New Challenge
Stressing the modern shifting of medical emphasis from trying to get the sick well, to helping people to keep well, Dr. Chaucey B. Leake, dean of the School of Medicine of the University of Texas, spoke to the graduating medical students and nurses on the "Challenge of Health" at the commencement exercises held in Fraser theater last night.
Dr. Leake pointed out the importance of philosophy in the doctor's relation to society and the social problem of medicine. Although society has always reserved the right to control the practice of medicine by regulation, the doctors have reserved for themselves the setting up of those ideals that would be the basis of their practice through precepts.
With the change that is coming as a result of the war, the doctors of the future will not only have the two century-old medical problems of war, gunshot wounds and venereal disease, but also, those of infection, infectionary diseases, psychiatry, and mental disease.
"In your hands and in the hands of many others like you will be the answer to the challenge of today. Not only the physical but also the mental attitude of people in the next 25 years will be in your hands. This will be a great responsibility and challenge," concluded Dr. Leake. "I know that you are going to meet it."
In giving to the graduating students the greetings of the Board of Regents, Dr. LaVerne B. Spake further challenged them with "Do something else better than anyone else in your community, and you will never have to worry about the monetary side of life. This is your United States of America, a free and democratic land where your future can be what you yourself most wish it to be."
Chancellor Deane W, Malott reminded the graduating class of their responsibilities as educated citizens from which their profession will not make them immune, for the intelli-

49 Start Training For Aeronautic Jobs
Enrollment was completed and classes in aeronautical engineering began yesterday for 49 women who are being trained in preparation for defense jobs in the Boeing Airplane company of Wichita and North American Aviation Inc. in Kansas City.
During a 13-weeks intensified training course 25 women will receive instruction which will qualify them as tool engineers. They will then be placed in the Boeing plant. The other 24 trainees, who are sponsored by the North American company will take general engineering courses, and will be placed in various jobs at this plant after graduation.
Women must meet certain standards set up by the war plants to be eligible for the free training. During the schooling period they receive salaries of $100 a month.
White Buried In Simple Chapel Rites
With utmost simplicity William Allen White, K.U. alumnus, was buried at Emporia yesterday.
The chapel of the College of Emporia was barely able to accommodate half the large crowd wishing to witness the service. Those of the 1200 who gained entrance sat silent and nodded approval to the tribute that was paid their fellow townsman whose wisdom in print brought fame to Emporia.
Dignitaries of state were there; messages came from those from afar who were unable to be present.
The services did not end until the choir had sung its closing hymn at the grave in Maplewood cemetery.
Many from the campus attended the service. Perhaps those who felt the loss as keenly as any were two former employees of Mr. White, Miss Virginia Gunsoll, Daily Kansan campus editor, and K. W. Davidson, director of publicity for the University.
Said Mr. Davidson:
"It was one of the most impressive ceremonies I have witnessed—impressive in its simplicity and therefore, in its beauty. And probably it was the largest funeral I have ever seen. It seems that every one was there—nearly 3000 persons from all over—from all walks of humanity. It was pretty personal to me, too. I had worked intimately with Mr. White for nearly 10 years—and with the Gazette staff—and Mr. White's death was much more than a casual acceptance of the fact that all men are mortal.
Charley O'Brien, the traffic cop who directed people at Mary's funeral more than 20 years ago, was there at Tenth and Exchange again as we drove up to the house, looking resplendent in a newly pressed uniform and a red rose. He wiped a tear from his eye as he said to me—"Well, he's gone. This town will never be the same, but people will really appreciate him more now that he is gone. It's too bad. Everyone is using up his life too fast these days." And I felt that Charley had something there."
Senate Ask 'Good Offices For Jewish Repatriation
Washington, (INS)—A resolution calling on the United States to "use its good offices" to guarantee free entry of Jews into Palestine was introduced in the Senate today by Senators Wagner, (Rep., New York) and Taft, (Rep., Ohio). The resolution immediately received strong support. The proposal held that Palestine can absorb huge number of Jews rendered homeless and suffering from persecution. The British White Paper of 1939, called for the entry of Jews into Palestine after March 1, 1944.
Alumnus Made Attorney General
Attinus Made Attorney General Carl A. Ballweg, a Cottonwood Fall attorney, and a student in the School of Law from 1929 to 1934, was appointed state attorney general yesterday by Attorney General A. B. Mitchell.
Mr. Ballweg, who was admitted to the bar in 1934, will succeed Harold Fatzer of Topeka, who went into the army recently.

K.U. Students Lose Manners at Games
To the new student, receiving his first impression of K.U. spirit, the rudeness exhibited by older students at the University basketball games is a shock. The readiness of the spectators to boo the visiting team, while ignoring similar offenses by their own players, strikes a stranger immediately.
Probably not more than one out of 10 spectators actually sees what takes place when a foul is called, but invariably the referee is booed if the home team is penalized and cheered if he calls a foul on the visitors. Referees are trained to catch technicalities which the average layman does not notice, and they are on the spot when the action happens; consequently, their judgment is more likely to be sound than that of the emotionally-aroused audience.
Apparently the good manners, which students were taught in smaller schools, are forgotten or ignored in the excitement of being part of a really big game, and the impulse to "follow the crowd" is obeyed. Although the rudiments of common courtesy call for politeness to be shown the opposing team, time after time K.U. fans will cheer when an opponent has a foul called on him or makes some other error. An opponent hardly has a chance to score from the free throw line with whistles and bores distracting his attention from the shot, but a dead silence falls over the auditorium when a Jayhawk aims for the basket.
University students, from all appearance, can not appreciate talent in any one but themselves. When a member of the opposite team is withdrawn from the game, he is almost never applauded no matter how good a performance he turned in. Neither do any difficult shots successfully made by the adversary usually call forth favorable comment from K.U. students.
This so-called "school loyalty" is not the type that should be developed among young people. Even though the team occasionally does come out on the small end of the score, no excuses or alibi should be offered, or will be needed, for that matter, if the fans are really behind the team. In sports, the emphasis should be on the benefit and enjoyment derived by both the participants and the spectators. The essential purpose is not to make money or gain fame for the University, thereby going "all out for the kill." It should be remembered that "win, lose, or draw, the game's the thing." -J.F.
U. S. Navy Challenges Jap Fleet to Fight
(International News Service)
The boldest challenge yet issued to the Japanese fleet to venture out of its island hideaway and fight for supremacy in the Pacific was hurled by the United States Navy yesterday. In the course of widespread operations still essentially closed in secrecy, powerful American fleet units went into the Marshall islands to strike this vital outpost of the Japanese homeland. Admiral Sir Chester Nimitz announced the Navy is carrying out the second consecutive day bombardment of the enemy bases in the Marshalls.
Meanwhile the Navy announced destruction of 14 more Japanese ships by U. S. subs in Pacific and Far Eastern waters.
The bag included two large transports, one medium transport, one medium cargo transport, and seven medium freighters.
These Japanese losses raised the American submarine score to date to 422 enemy vessels sunk, 36 probably sunk, and 114 damaged.

The box at least said 99.44 per cent pure: Larry Miller, Beta and varsity debater of growing fame, stood in the Pi Phi side yard at 2 a.m. boldly expounding on the right of free . . . Before his subject became clearly defined, the orator was interrupted by an inquisitive passer-by. Upon being questioned, Miller maintained that he was practicing a debate speech and pretending there was an audience in the blackened house. When it was suggested that he might use his own house, he replied that he preferred speaking to women (they were more responsive) and went dramatically on with the soliloquy.

Respecting the old traditions that if slept upon wedding cake causes dreams to be about one's future husband, Idabelle tucked it under her pillow and retired. The next morning she sheepishly confessed having dreamed all

Take care of that cold: Two dead mice, one tagged "With love to Lew" and the other "A little tingle for Mr. Pringle" were in the mail box the other day when the Battenfeld boys went up to meet the postman. Lew Purinton and Bill Pringle probably didn't know until now that the oiferous gifts were from Evelyn Hodgson, Watkins hall. The mice died from an overdose of flu germs in her bacteriology experiment.
A visitor of the journalism department and journalism classes many times over the years, William Allen White, former University student and noted Kansas editor who died Saturday, was described by L. N. Flint, professor of journalism, as being a "delight" and "inspiration."

The department mourns the death of this noted Kansas writer, an "artist with words," and realizes the significance of his work on Kansas lives.
Others who were acquainted with Mr. White and especially those who knew him while he was on the campus could not be reached today. Most of his teachers have preceded him in death.
One exceptional experience Mt. White had as a student here was his trip with other students in the class of Dr. F.H. Snow, professor of physical science, to Estes Park, Colo., in the summer of 1889. Dr. Snow did not know it, but he had brought to-

Pelouze of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and Dr John Philip Berger of the University of Michigan School of Medicine, these clinics will be held in Kansas City, Parsons, Wichita, Dodge City, Topela, Hutchinson, Beloit, and Salina.
The first clinic began in Kansas City yesterday.
McNutt Supports Drive For National Service Law
Washington, (INS) — War manpower chief Paul V. McNutt today supported the administration's drive for national service legislation indicating that factors known to the military high command transcend purely manpower requirements and make such a course necessary. At a news conference, McNutt vigorously defended the voluntary program operated by his agency for the past two years and implied the nation could meet its 1944 manpower requirements without a compulsory labor draft. He did not disagree with the armed forces on the need for such legislation, however.

AND gets about twice as much electricity for its money as it did 15 years ago!
Obviously, $ \frac{3}{8} $ of a bathtub wouldn't hold water very well! That figure means merely that some 3 out of 5 American homes have bathtubs.
STATISTICS are tricky things to toss around.
Most families own more electric appliances now than they did in 1929. Over the years, as they used more electricity, they earned lower rates—and the rates, too, were steadily reduced.
Obviously, also, the electric figure applies only to homes that have electric service. But as a nation-wide average of all those homes, it is a fact—and perhaps surprising to many people.
So—though your bill today may be as much as it was in 1929—or even more—you're probably getting twice as much for what you pay. And remember that the price of electricity has stayed down while most other prices are going up.
That makes it just about the biggest bargain in your wartime budget!
For this you can credit the electric companies, manned and managed by business people, under public regulation. Their hard work has made electric service dependable and cheap.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1944
From the Sidelines BY Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Dates have now been set for the NCAA and New York Invitational Tournaments . . . So, speculation will be rampant in the next few weeks as to which will be "the teams." . . . The invitational, which will bring together eight handpicked fives, will be held March 16-20-22 and 26 . . . The NCAA will run off its western tourney in Kansas City, March 24 and 25, and its Eastern finals in Madison Square Garden March 23 to 25 . . . The two secciónal winners will clash in New York on March 28 and there is a strong possibility that the NCAA and the invitation champs will langle in a Red Cross benefit game as a seasonal climax as they did last year when Wyoming, NCAA winner, downed St. Johns, the game getting more than $30,000 for the Red Cross . . . The Oklahoma Agies, Iowa State, and Oklahoma are being groomed for the NCAA spot in this area . . . However, as the Agies probably will accept and expected bid to the Invitational, the Big Six winner, most likely Iowa State, will represent the fourth district at Kansas City . . . Texas is a favorite in the southwest, Utah in the Rocky Mountain area, and either Washington or California from the West Coast.
Kansas State lost two of its baseball starters by graduation Saturday, Bob Schwartz and Lee Doyen . . . They will also be without the services of reserve, Bud Hilka, who reports for his Army physical, in their game against Nebraska at Lincoln tonight . . .
This loss should take away what ever edge the Wildcats might have possessed and tonight's battle of the beaten should be strictly a toss-up.
K-State Loses Stars
Baseball at O. U.
Ens. W. Scheerer, Navy V-12 athletic officer, will be coach of the University of Oklahoma baseball team this coming season, Athletic Director Darl Arbuckle has announced . . .

Oklahoma has fielded a baseball team for 22 consecutive years . . . No announcement here as yet has been made concerning the baseball situation except that because of the spring term's longevity extending into June, weather conditions should be favorable andence emphasis will be given the hard ball sport.

Gardner on Basketball
Lieutenant Jack Gardner has just completed a survey of most of the 16 naval aviation cadet training schools in the 7-state area and his observations bear out our recent statements that basketball is the greatest of the conditioning sports . . .

And Gardner is convinced that no
DG Defeats Corbin,
To Play Chi O Feb. 3
The Delta Gamma's forged aheac against the Corbin women and defeated them in the semi-finals with a'score of 31-13. More accurate on their baskets, and excellent guarding on the part of the Delta Gamma's put them on the winning side of the game throughout the entire game. However, at the half the margin was not so great, the score being 13-7 in favor of the Delta Gamma's.
Leeta Marks and Ruth Payne, DG's, vied with each other for high point rating, making 12 and 13 points respectively. Doris Bixby showed exceptionally fine guarding and made it difficult for the Corbinites to make any headway. Shirley Rhodes made 10 pons for Corbin.
The Delta Gamma's will meet the Chi Omega's Thursday night to play for the championship of the women's basketball tournament.

In basketball, as in an aerial dog fight, the scene shifts constantly . . .
One minute you are on the defensive, the next you shift to the offensive . . . The contest is continuous with quick-on-the-spot decisions vital . . . Among the numerous advantages propelled by basketball, Gardner has discovered, is the increased dexterity of the left hand . . .
This proves a great aid in flying technique . . . Split vision, the ability acquired by a cager to look straight ahead while at the same time seeing out of the corner of their eyes what opponents are doing, is also a great asset to a flyer . . .

Demonstrating experience and ability gained from participation in past Golden Gloves tournaments, the Haskell Indian Boxing team won all seven bouts, two by TKO's, of a warm-up match with V-12 boxes in Hoch auditorium last night. The V-12's all in the ring for the first time, showed well in the opening round of each fight, but soon wore down before onslaughts of the experienced Indians.
Experienced Haskell Boxers Beat V-12's In 7-Bout Warm-up
Pat Sands, Haskell, won the first TKO of the evening from Roland Pettitt, V-12, Yakima, in the third round of their 128 pound bout. Pettitt, although badly bruised, was still going strong when the fight was called.
Fighting in the 150-pound class, Henry Moon, V-12, Hutchinson, outpointed Burton Warrington, Haskell, in the first round, but Warrington reversed the attack in the last two rounds, taking the decision.
In the 135 pound class, Vincient Foster, Haskell, took the decision from James Toomey, V-12, Portland, and C. B. Summers, Haskell, won over Dean Gilchrist, V-12, Russel, in the same manner in the 140 pound bout.
A TKO was awarded to George Lawrence, Haskell, over Joe Kelleher, V-12, Ellensburg, Wash., in the first few seconds of their 160-pound clash when Kelleher received a cut above the eye from a collision with Lawrence's head.

Commenting upon the non-partisan, for the V-12 at least, rooting of the machinist's and electrician's mates in attendance, Chief Starkey stated that a dream bout could be arranged between the V-12's and the MM's and the EM's, and that he was anxious to bring such a meeting about.
"It would be a natural," Chief Starkey said, "With the rivalry between the two schools, it should provide plenty of entertainment." Judges of the bouts were Lt. Orville Hood and Chief Specialist George Gathings. Ens. H. L. Ware was timekeeper.

41ST YEAR
Army, Marines Mass for Push In Marshall Isles
(International News Service)
Veteran United States army forces and top marines fresh from the training ground set up 10 separate beachheads in the heavily-defended Marshall islands today and massed for major onslaughts against key Japanese garrisons.
The amphibious American forces gained their wide-spread foothold in the Marshalls—outer protective wall of the Japanese empire with comparative ease. A three-day aerial and naval bombardment without a parallel since the Pacific war began shattered the enemy defenses and tore great gaps in his air power. Weak Resistance at First
The first landings were made against weak resistance and American casualties were light. However, fighting of terrific intensity now undoubtedly is underway, as latest dispatches from the battlefront indicated that a general offensive has been launched against the main enemy bases on Kwajalein, Roi, and Namur islands at the northern and southern extremities of the group. For the first time
Since Pearl Harbor territory actually embraced within the boundary of the Japanese empire was taken away from Emperor Hirohito. The battlefront lies less than 3000 miles from Tokyo.
Navy, Air Force Subdue Kwajalain All the previous Pacific triumphs—Guadalcanal, New Guinea, New Georgia, New Britain, the Ellice islands, and the Gilberts—represented painstaking recapture of land seized by the Japanese in their initial surge of conquest.
So tremendous was the bombardment laid down by the American navy and air force that not a single Japanese fighter plane was left on hand to intercept the landing on Kwajalein island in the south. On the northern sector, aerial resistance was far more marked. Eighteen Japanese planes were brought down and 51 others destroyed or damaged on the ground when the Americans went into Roi and Namur.
Ship's Company Loses Four Members
As the result of the decrease of personnel of the Naval Training school, four members of the ship's company will leave this week, three of them for foreign duty, Chief Yeoman Starkey announced today.
Chief Sp. F. J. Jamison, Sacramento; Y1c James Harris, Meade; and SK1c Adam Ostrowsky, Cleveland, will report to San Francisco for assignment to "duty outside the continental limits of the United States."
Mail Sp. 3c David Berger, Bronx, will report to the Training school at Ames, Iowa.
A former student at the University won the "$64 question" Monday night. Sam B. Redmond of Lawrence, a graduate of the School of Law in 40, stumped the experts on "Information Please" with his question relating to general subjects discussed in three separate groups of books.
Law Graduate Wins Prize
Mural Art On Display At Museum
An outstanding exhibit of mural designs from a nationally held competition, to be placed in the library of the Museum of Fine Arts, at Springfield, Mass., will be featured in Spooner-Thayer museum this month.
The mural designs are small panels of the picture the artist would paint on a large wall. With each panel is a detailed part of the mural painted in full scale of the large, finished mural. The Springfield museum in October, 1942, opened the competition to all artists in Canada, Mexico, and the United States. A prize of $4,500 and the opportunity to paint the large mural in the library of the Springfield museum was the award to the winner of the contest.
The murals could be painted on the subject of the history Springfield, a series of incidents showing the high spots of art history, the visualization of the Museum's place in a community stressing education, or a reference to the industrial importance of the western Massachusetts section of the Connecticut river valley, where Springfield is located.
Pvt. Sante Graziani of Cleveland, Ohio, won the competition. He is now in the army and cannot paint the mural until after the war. Saul Levine of Washington, D. C., was the first alternate, Frederic S. Hynyd of Simsbury, Conn., the second. Honorable mention went to Pietro Lazzari of Washington, D. C., and Kindred McLeary of Confluence, Pa
The exhibit is being shown in only two museums of Kansas this year, the Spooner-Thayer museum and the Mulvane Art museum at Washburn University in Topeka.
Project to Furnish Scrap Books Begun
A project to furnish scrap books for convalescent service men in U.S. hospitals was undertaken at a meeting of the Pan-Hellenic Council yesterday in the Union building, Doris Dunklen, president announced yesterday.
The plan was presented by Sigma Kappa, whose national president heads the national project. Each sorority house will be given a scrap book, which will be purchased by the Council. These books may be filled with stories clipped from various magazines, comics, pictures, or anything that will be entertaining to the men, said Miss Dunkley.
A committee of women from the city Pan-Hellenic Association, of which Mrs. Paul B. Lawson is chairman, met with the group to discuss changes in rushing rules. They made several suggestions, but no action will be taken until April, Miss Dunkley explained.
The work should be started this week, as the books will probably be collected at the next meeting, she said.

Sixteen alumni in Seattle, Wash., celebrated Kansas Day with a dinner at which they made plans for an official alumni dinner to be given sometime in February. The dinner was at the Edmund Meany hotel,
A convocation Feb. 14 as a part of the Religious Emphasis Week is being planned by a committee headed by Mrs. Rachel VanderWerf.
The tentative plan for the all-campus meeting followed an announcement that Prof. Ed wiin Walker, of the department of philosophy of the University of Colorado, has been invited to be a guest of the University Feb. 15 and 16 to participate in a number of group meetings and discussions.
An opportunity to participate in the week's program is to be given every student, religious organization for students, and organized house. The committee has asked that all church youth groups cooperate in their programs for that week, using the theme, "A religion for living, today and tomorrow."
More definite plans pertaining to the proposed convocation will be announced soon, according to the committee which is composed of Mrs. VanderWerf, the Rev. Theodore H. Aszman, Richard Beach, College senior in the V-12; and Florence Helmke, College senior.
Fine Arts Students Offer Brass Recital
The weekly student recital of the School of Fine Arts will be given at 3:30 tomorrow afternoon in Fraser theater. The program will be composed entirely of students of brass instruments of E. Thayer Gaston and will offer numbers for trumpet, cornet, trombone, and French horn.
A trumpet solo "Chanson Hebraique" (Glinka), will open the recital. Doradeen Perry will play a trombone solo, "Concertino (Andante and Maestrose)" by David.
Compromise Proposed In Soldier Vote Bill
"Preludio and Gavotta," from "Sonata in F," transcribed by Solodouiew (Corelli), will be played by Hope Crittenden on the French horn. Lonnie Kelley will present a trombone number, "Andante and Finale" from "Concerto for Clarino" (Haydn), will be played by William Oakes.
Washington, (INS)—Senator John Danaher (Dem., Connecticut) today proposed a compromise in the servicemen's vote bill warrangle under which soldiers overseas would vote by federal ballot while those in the United States would vote by state-ballot methods. Danaher made his proposal after states-rights advocates in the senate had been defeated in their attempt to assure that local poll tax and registration laws would apply in counting soldiers' ballots. As the upper chamber moved toward a vote on the compromise plan, the house engaged in bitter debate of the Rankin bill which is designed to facilitate delivery of states' ballots to servicemen.

Groundhog Retires 'Til Finals Over
From dawn until noon today, spring fever grew in legitimacy as an excuse for late assignments, unshined shoes, and general bogusness of character. Then the sun emerged for a glorified second and everything was ruined.
Out for his first gander around the campus after a several month's snooze (100 percent cutting average) Joe Groundhog caught a glimpse of his shadow at exactly 1.30. Thinking, undoubtedly, that the apparition meant the approach of some irate professor after an overdue mid-semester report, he dived for his lodgings, where according to tradition, he will now remain in hiding for six more weeks, thereby avoiding finals and the light opera.
While seeing his shadow had comfortable results for the groundhog himself, it is regarded as major tragedy in the lives of other students of the University who were looking forward to an immediate spring and the premature development of the various things associated with that interesting season of the year.
With the Hill bond drive at the half-way mark today, Betty Jo O'-Neal, major in the Coed Volunteer Corps, announced that $2,332 of the $5000 quota has been raised.
Hill Bond Drive Reaches $2,332
The CVC drive, in cooperation with the Fourth War Loan, began Jan. 21 and will end Feb. 10.
Student contributions have been improving and are much more satisfactory than at the beginning of the drive, said Miss O'Neal. In addition, the Interfraternity Council has added to the total by purchasing a $500 bond. A number of purchases also have been made by members of the faculty.
Need National Service Act,
Says Legion Commander
The drive will end with a Bond dance Feb. 12, sponsored by the Union activities. A Bond queen will be chosen from candidates of organized houses. Names of candidates must be turned in today to Eugenia Hepworth who is chairman of the Bond queen candidates.
Washington, (INS) — Warren H. Atherton, national commander of the American Legion, declared today that the nation must develop a universal law "Freezing all prices, capturing all excess profits and marshalling all productive powers in order to save American lives and win the war." He made the assertion while testifying before the senate military affairs committee on the pending Austin-Wadsworth national service act. He said national service was needed to "improve and strengthen the morale of our armed forces."

Blood Bank Goal Reached in Gifts Of 280 Students
Approximately 280 students helped the community surpass its goal for 576 blood donors with a total of 637 volunteers, the registration committee for the Blood Bank announced today.
Registrations Still Accepted
"The response from the students has been far better than for any previous visit of the Blood Bank," said R.alph I. Canuteson, chairman of the Blood Donors' service for Douglas county, "and the committee feels that the enthusiastic impetus given to the program by the early registration of 190 students the first afternoon, encouraged others to sign up more promptly," he added.
"Though the quota has been filled," said Dr. Canuteson, "registrations will still be accepted because we are expecting some cancellations, but these appointment must be made today for the actual donations will begin tomorrow."
Dr. Canuteson said that before tomorrow or Friday, every volunteer donor will receive a card reminding him of his appointment and advising him about his diet. It is very important to follow the instructions, he said, for failure to follow the diet instructions may make the blood unsatisfactory for dried plasma.
New Donors Named
The 23 new donors are;
James T. Proctor, V-12, a College senior and freshman in medicine; Llyod Crow, junior in engineering; Carl Hoak, a graduate and freshman in medicine; James Simpson, V-12 sophomore in engineering; Frances Clay, College junior; Anne Walker, pharmacy senior; Kenneth Higdon,

A Young Friend Pays Tribute to William Allen White
The following editorial was written by Virginia Gunsolly, former member of the staff of the Emporia Gazette and close personal friend of Mr. White.
William Allen White now sleeps peacefully beside his beloved daughter, Mary. In her memory Mr. White wrote his editorial which has become a classic—"Mary White." These two now have been reunited in that beautiful world to which we all must go and from which none returns.
The funeral services Monday were just as he would have wished—simple and unpretentious. Had Mr. White been watching his own services, he would have summoned his most amused smile and immediately his round, bright eyes would have lighted with that ever present twinkle. It would seem incomprehensible to him that so many hundreds of people would journey from all parts of the country to bid him a last farewell.
The entire service was utterly lacking in show. This lack of ceremonious rites was inconspicuous, because it was so typically William Allen White. Not a flower decorated the entire chapel. The only semblance of decoration was the symbolic spray which had so recently proclaimed to passers-by the message that no words could convey and now lay atop the casket. This spray was not large, nor was it composed of flowers; but it was heart-rending in its simplicity. Just sprigs of spruce tied with a simple purple ribbon. That was all.
A profusion of flowers decorate the cemetery. Flowers, were reduced to second place, however, by the extent of damp handkerchiefs and swollen eyes. As a Welsh choir sang the same song in Welsh as had been sung at Mary's funeral 23 years ago, Emporians and others began to experience the real impact of the sorrow which had befallen them. It is tragically difficult to face the realization that we have lost one of the greatest men of our times; and it will be increasingly difficult as time goes by and we need his able influence and guidance upon which we have come so whole-heartedly to depend.
For many people, the spirit of Mr White will live on in the sweet, tender figure of his wife, Sallie. Leaning heavily for moral support upon their son, Bill, Sallie White presented a picture of strength and a will of iron as she stood at the grave of her departed husband and struggled valiantly and successfully to retain her composure.

Naturally delicate: Will Allen, Phi Bet medic, finally got the rubber bulb of his hunger contraction apparatus swallowed and he stood victoriously in Hayworth lab with a rubber tube dangling out of his mouth. It had made him a little weak however, and he decided to get some air before going on with the experiment. Just as he got out of the door, roll of rubber tubing in hand, the whistle blew. The between classes crowd eyed him with curiosity, and began gathering around expectantly. At last, when the crowd was at its height, he parted ways with his breakfast.

The boys probably weren't so bashful: Virginia Lee Thompson and Lolly O'Leary were disturbed around 2:30 o'clock in the morning by a rattle on their window and a clanking on the fire escape. The girls jumped out of bed and ran, scared to look out. Tracks discovered the next morning identified the would-be third-floor callers with members of a "high" serenade—who after singing to the girls earlier in the
George Hood Writes Article for Digest
"Perspective drawings," explained professor Hood, "are an aid to both skilled and unskilled workers in production and on the assembly lines. They also help the technically trained engineer to visualize more clearly the design.
"The method is universally applicable and should prove useful in many field of design and construction," professor Hood said.
George J. Hood, professor of engineering drawing, wrote an article on "Perspective Drawings by Photographing Sectional Views" which appeared in a recent issue of the Aero Digest, an aeronautics magazine.
Rosenfield Visits Campus After South Pacific Duty
The plan described and illustrated in the article is a simple means of making perspective drawings by photographing sections of airplanes or other structures.

Richard J. Rosenfield, seaman in the navy and a student at the University in '41-42, visited on the campus recently. Seaman Rosen field, who is a member of Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity, visited at the house. He also visited with Henry Shenk, football coach.
Seaman Rosenfield arrived at his home in Junction City unexpectedly last week after having seen action at Bougainville and Guadalcanal. He surprised his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Rosenfield, and brother Bob, at 4:30 a.m. They did not know that he was in this country. Seaman Rosenfield, who has a 25-day furlough, was accompanied by his brother Bob, on his visit to Lawrence.

And for once he hadn't been drinking: For several weeks Betty (who is still afraid to reveal her entire identity) and an ASTP wrote letters back and forth on the desk which they both occupied in successive morning classes. Then came the note saying that the ASTP would like to meet Betty. The arrangements took several days of more extensive epistles, but finally everything was settled. Betty was tall and dark and would be sitting in the periodical room of the library in a pair of red anklets. At the last minute, however, the feminine element weakened. Scared to keep the rendezvous alone, she bribed every tall, dark girl in Watkins hall to put on red socks and accompany her. There were six of them all together lounging around, reading newspapers, and calling each other Betty when the ASTP arrived. Betty's attack of cold feet continued and the shaken soldier left the room alone after a nervous five minutes. The note writing has not been renewed.

Women Respond To Flight Offer
Topeka, Feb. 2.—Air-minded Kansas women by the dozens wrote, called and visited U. S. Army recruiting offices throughout the state this past week, making appointments for the free 15-minute flights now offered prospective Air-WACs by the Air Air Forces.
Air-WAC recruiting teams, now touring the state, reported enthusiastic response to the flight offer, which will introduce many women to the hustle and bustle of landing fields and to the thrill of flying in an army plane.
All women in the 20 to 49 age group who are considering volunteering for the Women's Army Corps for assignment to the Army Air Forces as Air-WACs are eligible to make the orientation flights and they may arrange for the air trip with the Air-WAC team nearest them, or with the U. S. Army recruiting office located in their town post office building.

Broadcast each Tuesday from 2:30 to 3 p.m., a class in drawing, painting, and design is conducted over the air by Professor Ellsworth for children and teachers in rural and small town schools where art instruction is not possible. Three pieces of work from each teacher are sent to the University weekly for criticism.
Art Lessons By Radio Statewide
Today, just 16 months later, the interest has grown from a three-county participation to a statewide program.
At first the lessons were limited to three counties, but the interest and participation in these counties was so widespread that University officials provided for the continuation of the source this year with the provision that the class would be made available to the whole state. Lessons Have True Objection.
Lessons Have Two Objectives
The lessons have two main objectives: to stimulate creative expression, and to sharpen observation. They include story illustration, design, nature drawing, imaginative composition, and special day problems such as valentines and Christmas cards.
Recordings of music are used with the lessons. One of the most interesting lessons of this year was a cowboy picture accompanied by cowboy music.

Revamped Fives To Take Floor In Return Bout
Two vastly different teams will take the floor in Hoch auditorium at 7:30 tonight when the Kansas Jayhawks and the Washburn Iehabods meet in a return game.
The Jayhawks had an easy time of it in the first meeting when they downed the Ichabods, coached by Dee Erickson, at Topeka, 46 to 24 in the first game of the season for the Topekans. Washburn has shown rapid improvement since their first opener, and besides running up a greater score against Rockhurst than the Jayhawks were able to accomplish, they have come within one point of defeating Missouri and gave the powerful Hutchinson NAS quintet a game battle.
Nick Jilley, Guard-Position
Jick Fills Guard Position
Dr. F. C. Allen who has had "fifth-man-itas" all season has finally landed on the old veteran, George Dick. Dick took over the guard position that no one has been able to fill to the doctor's satisfaction this season against Iowa State. Dick, a reserve letterman, played a fine defensive game against the Cylones before fouling out. The other four standbys — Barrington, Moffett, Lindquist, and McSpadden—will make up the Jayhawk startling combination. Moffett, who has spent a week in the hospital before the Iowa State encounter, is now ready to go again. Homer Sherwood and Bob Turner, who turned in fine performances against the Ames school, will undoubtedly see much action tonight.
Starting for Washburn will be Dickey and Wheeler at the forwards, Hagerdorn at center, and Horsley and Becker at guards.
Wayne Hagadorn, towering center, leads the Ichabod scoring with 96 total points scored. Behind him are in order, Horsley, Dickey, former Pacific U. fresh from Oregon, Becker, 200 pound tackle on the football team, and Wheeler. Barrington was High Scorer
In the first meeting between the two teams Barrington led the scoring with 15 points.
Kansans go to Ft. Riley on Feb. 7 or a return engagement with the Ft. Riley Centaurs, another team that has been on the up-grade. Featuring two former K.U. cagers, larp and Ballard, the Cavalrymen recently scored 76 points in smashing down the Topeka A.A.B., a team that the classy Olathe Clippers recently had much trouble in defeating.
Conference play will be resumed on Feb. 12 when the Jayhawks journey to Soonerland to Meet Bruce Drake's conference—leading Sooners. The Oklahomaans take on the Iowa State Cyclones this Saturday in a game that very well might
Blanks and Rascals Vie for Second Place
The Blanks and the Irish Rascals the two teams now tied for second place honors in the Lawrence community basketball league, will settle their dispute in the second game of a twin bill in the Community building tonight. The teams have lost one game each, both to the powerful V-12 club, and, although the Irish Rascals permitted the Navy men a much larger margin of victory than did the Blanks, the Blanks met the V-12's in the first game of the season before the V-12's had molded the powerful club that downed the Irish Rascals last week.
Bock, the Blanks' main scorer and individual league leader, will have difficulty in getting his pivot shots past the guarding of Hare, towering Indian center of the Rascals, while Hare's effective overhand shooting promises great trouble for the student five.
Ship's Company vs. S.O.W. Techs
In the first game of the evening the Ship's Company should have no trouble in handling the S.O.W. Techs having downed the S.O.W. Ads, winners over the Techs. in a previous game, by a large margin.
Chief Yeoman George Starkey, manager of the league, has revised the schedule from Feb. 9 on to accommodate changes brought about by the Navy game at Leavenworth last month.

From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
An event that may prove to be of little consequence or may on the other hand be of great significance was Camp Grant's recent action to discontinue all sports competition at the close of the present basketball season. Camp Grant, one of the nation's strongest army teams the past three years, has dropped all forms of varsity athletics, according to Brig. Gen. James E. Baylis, in view of the stepped-up tempo of the Allied offensive all over the world and the consequent increased demand on the time of men in the armed forces. The Camp Grant basketball team, defeated only twice this season, is rated as one of the best in the nation. The camp has completed three seasons of basketball and football, and is now in the third season of basketball and boxing.
Will Others Follow Suit?
740 Vermont
Has this camp started a movement that might be followed to the extent of the extinction of war-time athletics? We do not believe so, for the navy has spoken only the best for the valuable training their trainees in the American colleges and universities received by being permitted to compete in varsity athletics—especially basketball and football. It is quite evident that the navy will continue to allow her naval college training detachments to compete in sports.
On the other hand we are inclined to believe that army camps will tend to cut down on athletic competition. Maybe, even, the navy camps, air bases, and pre-flight schools will compete on a more limited scale after the western front is launched in Europe. However, should Germany

fall out of the war by the end of the year as Allied leaders have promised, service camp teams will be going at it stronger than ever. The best solution as we see it at the present moment would be to cut down drastically on varsity sports at the service camps and bases, and rather allow army students (ASTP) at the various schools to compete with the navy trainees. It is at the colleges and universities where varsity sports competition belongs. Many camps and bases, in their attempts to gather in gaudy rosters of former college stars, have seemed to forget that there is a war on.
In a letter to grid coach Henry Shenk, Bob Carson, star backlash on the University eleven last fall before reporting to Northwestern Nov. 1, will be moved to Penn State the first of March. Carson, a marine V-12 trainee, is the only freshman on the Northwestern basketball squad, and the former McPherson youth has seen action in a few of the Big Ten school's games. Northwestern is presently ranked as the top basketball quintet in the nation according to the Dunkel ratings.
Battenfeld Winner Over Beta's in Upset; Blanks, TKE's Forfeit
In the biggest upset of the intramural season Battenfeld took the measure of the Beta's, B League contenders, last night, 24 to 20. The Beta's, who were doped to finish second behind the Phi Dalt's, were paced by B. Johnson whose 13 points were high for the game. Battenfeld never had any one main scoring ace, but rather the residence hall boys all contributed to the victory as
Jones, O'Connel, Widmer, and Ashcra-
craft each accounted for at least two
field goals, while Porter and Neme-
counted a basket apiece.
Although continuing their winning ways, the Phi Gam's, leaders of the A League, had to go all out to drown a fighting Sigma Chi team Monday night. The Fijis emerged victorious, 30 to 25 with their speedy forward, Bill Nef, hitting the netting for 13 points, high for the game. Eisenhower and Patterson gave the victors plenty of trouble, scoring 10 and eight points respectively to pace the Sigma Chi attack.
Dispute Over League Rules
A dispute arose last night when Vernon Hayes, civilian intramural head, and Charles Fink, student intramural manager, interpreted the rules such that a defeat was charged up against both the Blank's and the Teke's for failing to appear for their scheduled game. The situation arose when Warren Spikes, TKE president, called up Bob Nelson, manager of the Blanks, and suggested that the game be played at a late date since several of his players would not have been able to play last night. Nelson agreed and informed his players of the agreement. Neither manager nor players of either team were aware that a defeat was to be charged against them were they not to appear.
Too Late to Round Up Team
Nelson, Blank manager, did happen to be on the scene last night, and was told that his team must make an appearance or a defeat would be marked against them; but he was not given sufficient time to round up his boys.
The Blanks, who lost to the Phi Gam's by only a single point, were A League co-favorites, but this defeat charged against them when they could have easily whipped the opposing team, the Teke's, puts them clear out of the running and left it wide open for the Phi Psi's to capture the runner-up and consequent play-off spot.

Raymond Clapper, Alumnus, Killed In Airplane Crash Over Marshalls
Clapper and Wife Walked From K.C. to Enter K.U.
Coeds to Have One-Day Try At WAC Life
"University junior and senior women will be given a chance to see what the life of a WAC is like," Lt. Betty Veatch of the Topeka army recruiting office, announced to the campus today.
Her announcement, accompanied an invitation to all coeds to take part in an all-day experiment Saturday, Feb. 12, which will begin at 8 a.m. with a talk by Lt. Col. W. L. McMorris, commander of the University army units, and will end with a reception at 4 p.m.
Working in co-operation with Col. McMorris, his staff, Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, and Miss Marie Miller, assistant to the adviser of women, Lt. Veatch has arranged for the coeds to get a cross section of a day in the WAC's.
Will Give Mental Tests
After Col. McMorris' talk, the women will be given the mental alertness tests that all women are required to take before entering the WAC's. After this there will be a short period of close order drill.
In the next hour, movies, which have not been released before to the public, will be presented. These movies were made in Hollywood by the signal corps. They are the complete story from the rise of Hitler in 1932 through all the events since then up to the present day.

Stevens to Talk To Senior Class
Richard B. Stevens of Lawrence, president of the Alumni association, will address seniors at their first class meeting at 10:30 Wednesday morning in Fraser theater, Jane Lorimer, president of the senior class, announced today. Plans for graduation and a class gift will be discussed at the meeting.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott has requested that all faculty members excuse seniors from their 10:30 classes Wednesday, according to Raymond Nichols, executive secretary. He urges all seniors to attend.
There will be a meeting of the chairmen of senior class committees at 7:30 tonight in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building.
Because he had so little money, Raymond Clapper and his young wife walked to Lawrence from Kansas City to enroll in the University of Kansas in 1913. They felt that they should save the little money they had for fees and living expenses, so they walked—hitch-hiking was unheard of in those days.
L. N. Flint, professor of journalism who taught Clapper in 1915 and 1916, said, "Raymond Clapper's career was watched by all of us in journalism because he started from scratch and
won his race. As a student in our classes he showed maturity beyond his years and the sort of independence that delights a teacher and which, in Clapper's case, holds the secret of his success as one of the leaders in the thought of a nation."
Boundless energy marked Ray Clapper's whole career, in his rise from a printer to a leading Washington correspondent and political commentator. In spite of his fame, Clapper remained wholesome, writing for the average American. He told his friends, "When I sit down to my desk I write for the people I know out in Kansas."
Energy Marks Career
Kansans have followed Clapper's career with personal interest for he was born near LaCygne in Linn County, May 30, 1892, grew up and attended school in Kansas City, Kansas, and attened the University for three yea s. He left school to become a member of the Kansas City Star staff in 1916.
Couple Returned to School
In addition to all their outside jobs, the Clappers carried a full-time schedule, did all the house work and the laundry. Saturday mornings, they got up at 4 a.m. so Mrs. Clapper could go to Kansas City where she spent the morning giving music lessons.
He married Olive Ewing May 30, 1913, the same year they entered the University. Mrs. Clapper was 17 years old, a junior, and Clapper was only 20. They both quit school and Ray continued working as a printer in a shop operated by two women in Kansas City. A month after their marriage, Clapper decided they should return to school, so they came to the University. Shortly after classes began, Clapper landed a job as a correspondent for the Kansas City Star, while Mrs. Clapper gave music lessons.
Clapper soon became managing editor of the University Daily'Kansas; the job then paid $25 a week which bolstered their sagging income.
Once, Clapper got the chancellor of the University out of bed in the middle of the night to query him on a last-minute news break. The chancellor commented at length, and then politely asked the identity of the metropolitan editor. Clapper was a bit taken aback, but resounded firmly that he was a journ-

The Red Cross blood donors' service began taking blood donations at 10 a.m. today, it was announced by Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, chairman of the committee for Douglas county.
Added to yesterday's total of 637 volunteers, which surpassed the community's goal, 3 more volunteers have made appointments. They are:
Cards have been sent to all volunteers reminding them of their appointments and giving them diet instructions, Dr. Canuteson said. He also stated that it was very important that the donors follow these diet instructions carefully to make the blood satisfactory for dried plasma.

The mystery of the whereabouts of Japanese navy, still the number one enigma of the war, deepened by the hour today by fresh reports from the Marshall islands indicating early capture of Namur and Kwajalein. Stepped-up offensive action by United States troops and marines following initial seizure of 12 atol beachheads and capture of Roi island made imminent the fall of Namur and Kwajalein.

RAYMOND CLAPPER
Raymond Clapper
By Prof. L. N. Flint
Raymond Clapper was a self made journalist. When he became a student in the newly established department of journalism, he lost no time in showing all of us that he was going places. He was a hard worker in his classes, and showed enterprise and ability in his work on the Daily Kansan, both as reporter and executive.
His career since school days has been watched by his K.U. friends with a sort of family pride mixed with an I-told-you-so assurance. It seems now that we always knew that he would move to the top of his chosen profession, with a great following of readers both in his own country and abroad. The rewards that came to him were great, both in prestige and influence and in money, which he could appreciate because he had started from scratch.
Perhaps we should have fore seen that his devotion, as a journalist, to his obligations to the public would, in war time, lead him into many dangers here and there around the world and finally to death. We shall miss Clapper. Yes, in more ways than one, we shall miss him.
survivors, the navy said. Clapper had joined the Marshall island task force after an extended tour of fighting fronts in the southwest Pacific. He was a columnist for the Scripps-Howard syndicate.
Last summer and fall he made an aerial inspection trip to Sweden, Great Britain and the North American and Mediterranean fighting areas. He flew over Rome with an American bombing mission when the Italian capitol was hit for the first time.
Clapper's first newspaper job was editor of the Daily Kansan. After leaving the University, he joined the Kansas City Star and transferred from the Star to the Kansas City Bureau of the United Press in 1917.
In 1918 he joined the UP bureau in Washington, and from 1925 on he covered every national political convention and every national campaign. He was made chief of the Washington Bureau of UP in 1929. He was assigned to the White House, Congress, and various government departments, and among his top jobs was the covering the Scopes Monkey trial in 1925 and the London Disarmament Conference in 1930.
Clapper and White On Same Program
The last public appearance of Raymond Clapper in Kansas was at the banquet here June 5, 1941, in which L. N. Flint, retiring as head of journalism was honored. Clapper came by airplane from Washington and did not remain for the commencement next day owing to an appointment on the West Coast. Pictures of Flint, White and Clapper were published in group pose in the Alumni magazine.
The toastmaster who introduced Mr. Clapper was the late William Allen White of Emporia. Clapper's death followed White's in less than a week.
Portal-to-Portal Pay Discussed
Washington, (INS) — President Roosevelt's special committee studying the portal-to-portal issue laid the groundwork for a final decision in the long-standing coal wage dispute with a preliminary report showing that the nation's coal miners travelled underground an average of 5.29 miles a day.

World Is Saddened By Sudden Death Of Great Kansan
For the second time within five days, the world bows in sympathy with Kansas over the loss of a native son who gained international acclaim as a journalist. Saturday, William Allen White wrote "thirty" to his distinguished career. Today, the world is shocked by news of the sudden death of Raymond Clapper. A "newspaperman's newspaperman" to the last, he died while he was on assignment to "cover" the biggest story of our war with Japan.
Clapper was only 51 and had years of success ahead of him, but he was already recognized as one of the most respected political commentators in the world. He knew America from having travelled in every section of it and from having worked in Chicago, Kansas City, Milwaukee, St. Paul, New York, and Washington. As the foremost columnist and political reporter for Scripps-Howard newspapers and for United Features syndicate, he recently wrote from England, Africa, India, and China. As big news developed in the global war, Raymond Clapper went to the hottest spots to see for himself and to help his millions of readers and radio listeners to understand the significance of the news.
In many ways. Raymond Clapper and William Allen White were alike. No matter where they travelled, they remained Kansans. No matter what honors came to them, they were modest, quiet, unassuming. No matter how momentous the task of interpretation, they attacked it from the viewpoint of the common man, the ordinary citizen. They both had abiding faith in the good sense, honesty, and decency of Americans.
Of Raymond Clapper, Henry Ford said: "He knows this nation. He has constantly traveled its length and breadth, observing its trends, studying its methods, familiarizing himself with the wide variety of mind and native good sense which marks its citizens. He has reported these with the efficiency and high impartiality which characterize our best journalism."
Quincy Howe, author and radio commentator, recently declared: "Raymond Clapper differs from his Washington colleagues in that he does not believe that God has summoned him personally to save the American people."
The University of Kansas, the state of Kansas, the nation, and the world are shocked by the sudden loss of this great journalist. In such troubled times, we all need more men like him who can keep their heads and remain impartial and fair in spite of tremendous pressure and influence. We need more responsible publicists who will emphasize what makes a difference and discard the petty things that merely confuse. The world has too few men like Raymond Clapper.
Kansas is sorry. Kansas is bereaved. But Kansas is proud that Raymond Clapper, a native son, served the world so well.

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
What a poor time to have amnesia:
Saturday night, after being an active participant in a party which accumulated 100 beer bottles on their table at the Pit, Dick Rosberg, Sig Alph and V-12, more or less lost track of himself. Monday, Dick's friends in PT2 informed him with faked gravity, that it was he who climbed up the Theta firescape at 2 a.m. Sunday and all but succeeded in getting into a third floor bedroom. While Dick couldn't actually remember doing any such thing, he also couldn't remember definitely not doing it. Roseberg remained worried until he mustered up enough nerve to call the Thetas and find out it was all a joke.

REAL ENOUGH... for Basic Training!
THE MAILBOX
Meeting the challenge of wartime shortages, full-scale photographs of switchboard panels are helping speed the training of more than 125,000 new operators needed this year in the Bell Telephone System.
Actual cords, keys, dials, and calculagraphs for timing calls, give realistic practice, quickly training operators to handle real calls.
NEW telephone operators generally take basic training at idle switchboard positions. But today's switchboards are crowded with war calls.
Every resource of the Bell System is serving the Nation, maintaining communications now so vital in war- so important in the better days ahead.

After three years at the University, Clapper quit school in 1916 to accept a position as reporter for the Kansas City Star. Later he went to the United Press bureau in Chicago, rising rapidly and moving from Chicago to Milwaukee, St. Paul, New York, and finally to Washington, D.C. There he was chief political writer from 1923 to 1928 and manager of the Washington bureau from 1929 to 1934. His comments became so popular that he soon had a wide following, and in 1936 he joined the Scripps-Howard newspapers as a syndicated columnist.
In 1938, Clapper was elected national honorary president of Sigma Delta Chi, national journalism fraternity.

Jayhawks Win Washburn Fray In Slow Game
Starting out like a "house afire," the Kansas Jayhawks suddenly cooled off and were held on even terms the final 30 minutes here last night, by an outclassed Washburn Ichabod five who succumbed, 22 to 35. It was the second victory of the season for the Allenmen over the capital city crew.
The Jayhawks showed some real basketball in the opening moments when they passed and fast broke to a quick 8 to 0 lead. Moffett tarted it off with his favorite one-ander from the side, and was followed by Barrington and McSpaden who came through with buckets, the former's being of the lucky variety as it hit the backboard with the force of a cannon ball. He slows to Start.
The Ichabods could not find the basket from the field until seven minutes had elapsed. With little Burke Horsley, the Ichabods' outstanding player, showing the way Washburn fought back in the latter part of the first period and were only seven points behind at intermission, 15 to 22.
Horsley scored his third basket to art off the second half and the clue clad team pulled within five points of the Jayhawks. Kansas been pulling away, however, and the opekans were never able to present another serious threat.
Although nothing was at stake and the game was of relatively importance, the Jayhawks were outought for the most part by their inferior opponents and hardly looked the team they did two weeks ago against Oklahoma.
The two "big men" on both teams—Barrington of Kansas and the ichabods Hagedorn—had a private rebounding scrap with the laurels about even. Barrington, who scored 15 points in the other Washburn contest was held to only four points and Hagedorn. Washburn's usual high scorer, was handcuffed completely, scoring only four points, his owest total of the season.
maller Players Do Scoring
It was the smaller fellows that took over the scoring chores with Kansas' Moffett and McSpadden leading the point-making with 10 and 8 respectively and the Ichabodite, Horsley next in line with even.
Sherwood, one of the best set shot ristuists on the Kansas team, hit three buckets, although having rather an off night. Lanky Abe Turner hit me from far out and Lou Goehring, going into the game with only a couple of minutes remaining, came through with two fielders, both from under the basket.
The game was twenty minutes late on account of Washburn's late arrival.
Kansas' next game will be at Fort
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Okahlaom got a little of their own medicine last night when they, not their opponents, lost out in the closing moments of play. Just back from one-point victories over two Big Six foes, Kansas and Missouri, the Sooners took on their powerful cross-city rivals, the Norman Sky-jackets, in a return match. The Sky-Jackets, recent winners over the Norman Zoomers, won over Drake's boys 42 to 30 in December. This time freshman Ken Pryor, who scored the winning buckets against Kansas and Missouri and earned the monicker, "the clutch man" of the Big Six, couldn't come through—but he almost did. Pryor tossed the free throw that tied the game up at 30-all after the Sooners had overcome a 10-point Skyjacket lead, but a sailor long shot, the gun firing with the ball in the air, spelled doom for Oklahoma.
** **
Sooners Should Win!
Oklahoma's great battle against the Skyjackets—one of the best teams in the valley—should boost their stock in their coming game with Iowa State at Norman Saturday night. As everyone knows, the game Saturation night has a great bearing on the final outcome of the Big Six race, and if the Sooners are going to win out they'll have a lot better chance of beating the Cyclones on their home court than they will at Ames.
***
Fort Riley Coachless!
Whether it will mean anything or not, Kansas should have at least one advantage over the Fort Riley Centaurs when the two clubs meet at the fort next Monday night in that Kansas will have a coach—and the "father of them all," too. On the other hand the cavalrymen are entirely coachless. Sgt. Leo F. Strangle, ex-Nebraska high school mentor, who has taken over the coaching duties since Lt. John Moore was made athletic officer, has been unable to schedule practice sessions because of military duties. Because of the forced cessation of practice this week, the soldiers are not expecting to even up the series with the Jayhawks. However, two stars that never appeared in the CRTC lineup in the earlier game, Dick Harp, former KU. star, and Keith Caywood, Emporia State football ace, will be in the lineup against Kansas. The Centaurs have won all of their Kansas Service League games to date.
Had Field Night'
Had Field Night!
Al Artman, Nebraska Husker, and Norville Gish, Kansas Aggie, had
Riley next Monday night. Although the Jayhawks defeated the cavalrymen in December when Lindquist scored a last-second basket to give the Jayhawks a one-point victory, the Centaurs now take the favorite's role on recent performances and the home court advantage.

Mr. Whiteing spent almost six months in solitary confinement in Tokyo prison. He was one of the first to come from Japan on the Gripsholm last year.
(International News Service)
American first major penetration into the ring of island defenses guarding Japan approached its climax today. With Japanese defenders of the Marshall islands sustaining casualties at a rate of 46 to 1 and losing hour by hour valuable territory that Emperor Hirohito ordered defended at all costs, the initial phases of this great counter-stroke against enemy aggression began to shape up as one of the greatest in naval and military history. Rear Admiral Richmond Kelley Turner, who lead the amphibious forces, summed it up as the Allies having too much and too soon.
He said, "Maybe we had too many men and too many ships for this job, but I prefer to do things that way. It saves many lives for us and it should be a discouragement to Japs everywhere to know that when we hit we really hard and for keeps. Our gains are important, and they haven't cost us much yet."
The gains can be summed up as follows:
1. The islands of Roi and Namur with their important air strips are firmly in American hands.
2. A major assault by tanks and troops is under way against crumbling Japanese resistance on Kwajalein island to the south.
3. U. S. marines and infantry forces have set in motion a nut-cracker movement designed to wrest the entire Atoll and supremacy of the entire Marshall group from Japanese hands.
5. Of the estimated 2,000 enemy defenders on Kwajalein at least 1-250 have been killed at a cost of 27 American soldiers killed, 190 american and 9 missing
4. The vast fleet of American war ships, troop-carrying and supply vessels completed their job so speedily that on the second day of attack they could be moved in sanctuary of Kwajalein lagoon, protected from possible Japanese submarine attack.
It was apparent from latest dispatches that the Japanese remaining on Kwajalein faced capture or death and prisoners already taken betray a fearful conviction that Japan has lost not only the Marshalls but the whole Pacific war as well.
Service Wives Meet To Organize Today
Wives of service men stationed in Lawrence will meet at 2:30 this afternoon in the English room of the Memorial Union building to plan an organization which will meet periodically to do war sewing and knitting.

Americans hate Japs. American soldiers, sailors and marines want to kill Japs. Hatred in this war is embodied in Japanese. What about the Germans?
In the United States, written and oral opinion distinguishes between German and Nazi. German-American citizens are accepted, Japanese-Americans are not. Most American people seem to think of Germans as a lovable people turned against their wills to Nazism. But in the minds of Americans there is no such thing as a peace-loving Jap.
It must not be forgotten that Germany started this war. Germans willingly followed their Nazi leadership. German professors stood by while classic and scientific books burned, and cheered at the conflagration. German scientists threw away theories and principles established by Jewish genius. Germans have no conscience, no individuality, no courage to stand up for their convictions —so why feel sorry for them or save them?
Hatred for Japanese may be greater than hatred for Germans because of racial differences. The fact that Indians, Chinese, and Negroes are fighting on the Allied side seems forgotten. Germans may be of the white race but can be cruel, treacherous, and war like. Race difference should not be the basis of hatred in a war to create liberty and freedom among men.
The overwhelming propaganda against Jap atrocities and concentration on the war in the Pacific seems to have overshadowed the issue of the German menace in American minds. But a post-war reconstruction of Germany will precede that of Japan, and is imminent. We should think about a plan for permanently depriving the Germans of an opportunity to rebuild industry for destruction. Germans could follow again a leader with depraved ideas, since they cannot within themselves do otherwise.
Perhaps one of the best suggestions and solutions for post-war Germany is to turn it into an agricultural state. As long as the German people are tilling the land and herding their livestock they cannot become a power for world destruction.
Those Germans who are great scientists, who may contribute lasting benefits to civilization can work outside of Germany. If their experiments and discoveries are for world benefit, it is not necessary to prove them in a certain country.
German recovery will be a long and hard process. To insure the world against any recovery of destructive powers, industrialism must be wiped out in that country.

Rock Chalk Talk
By HANNA HEDRICK
Four score and seven years ago: The semi-annual Phi Bete beer bust will come off as scheduled Saturday night, and there should be plenty for all. Two trusty indulgers were appointed to order the brew but failed to confer with each other as to which one would order it. Consequently, the Phi Betes will have 192 quarts of beer at their disposal, or three quarts per capita.
***
A cabin south of town has become a favorite rendezvous for what was known in pre-war days as "steak fries." Seven Phi Delts and seven Pi Phis spent last Saturday evening there while one of the macs( who has never been on a body of water larger than Potter's Lake) dramatically described the sinking of the USS Lexington to the caretaker, who kept popping in all evening to see if the young folks were having a good time.

"Be it resolved?" Lt. Newell Jenkins, a student here last year, Betty
Lou Cave, and Bobbie Sue McCluggage staged a debate the other day in front of Prof. E. C. Buehler's classes. The topic concerned the merits of drinking, with Newell on the affirmative and the two girls on the negative. Words flew fast and furiously, with the final outcome somewhat in doubt. At last, with the class convulsed with laughter, Prof. Buehler called a halt and awarded an "off-the-record" decision to the affirmative.

The key to the Jayhawker office was lost, and how to get the door open became the next problem. Virginia Schaeffer suddenly remembered that Bob Noll had a key, and set out to the Phi Gam parlor to obtain same. In a big hurry, she burst into the house, and loudly demanded to see Bob. The pledges immediately discontinued their studyhall to see what women dared trespass their quiet hours. The freshman on phones had near apoplexy to think he had allowed Virginia to slip in unnoticed.

Pan-Hellenic Advised To Limit Spiking, Do More Entertaining
Recommending five major changes in sorority rushing rules including no spiking on the day of teas, and an increase in the amount each sorority can spend during rush week, Mrs. Paul B. Lawson, Mrs. Peggy Warrier, and Mrs. Jeanne Thompson from the Lawrence Pan-Hellenic organization attended a meeting yesterday afternoon of the University Pan-Hellenic Council.
Adelane's
Changes Benefit Both Parties
Mrs. Lawson, chairman of the rush rules committee of the city council, outlined the five changes as follows: (1) No spiking should be allowed on the first day of rush week as has been the practice and spiking on the second day should be binding both to the rushee and to the sorority, (2) each sorority should be allowed to have two large parties in a town during the summer instead of one. At parties of under 12 persons one thing other than a drink should be allowed to be served instead of a drink only as stated in the present rules, (3) Each sorority should be allowed to spend $125 instead of the present limit of $90 during rush week, (4) rule 9, forbidding alumnae to contact rushees during rush week, should govern only Lawrence alumnae and visiting alumnae in Lawrence for rush week, (5) Pan-Hellenic should establish a penalty for each violation, and penalties should be printed in the rush book.
In explaining the proposed changes the delegation from the city council pointed out that, at present, the spiking system is unfair to both rushee and sorority because of the legality of "bumping" as late as the last day of rush week.
They proposed two summer parties so that a sorority would be able

J. O. Jones, acting dean and professor in the School of Engineering, will talk on "Water as a State Resources" at the 36th annual convention of the Kansas Engineering society in Wichita today.

Action to Be Taken in April
Chicago, (INS)—American education "has grown flabby" in the last ten years and has fallen far short of doing its duty for the war emergency, President Franklin D. Snyder of Northwestern University charged yesterday.
Education Grown Flabby,
Franklin D. Snyder Says
"We have extended the elective system so widely that essentials in war have been left out," Dr. Snyder told the alumni association in Chicago. "It is rather shocking when we realize how lacking our system has been when the test of war comes."
to become better acquainted with rushes before rush week. The suggestion for the increased amount of rush week expenses was suggested because of rising prices.
The delegation said the change regarding alumnae was suggested because it is unfair to penalize a sorority for something which an alumna in another town has done without the sorority's knowledge.
The University Pan-Hellenic is now considering the changes, according to Doris Dunkley, president, but will take no definite action until the April meeting.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1944
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Who do you think is hollering now? Recently, the sports editor of the South Bend, Ind., daily was complaining bitterly about a star basketball player who had been steered away from a large midwestern university (no doubt Notre Dame) and the next thing that was seen of him was at a Big Ten school (perhaps Northwestern, one of the closest rivals of the Irish). "A clear case of subsidization, said the South Bend scribe, who has, incidentally,allen in line with Dr. F. C. Allen's proposal for a high commissioner of collegiate athletics. In this particular instance, the player in question received an urgent telegram telling him to hurry home as his mother was critically ill. A few weeks later his cager was burning the courts up or this neighbor school—and apparently there was nothing to the sick mother story" at all. A disusting, low down trick, true. But maybe it will help do its bit in bringing about the creation of a "Judge Landis for college sports" which is so needed now to crack down on such admitted proselytors as Tulsa and Oklahoma &M, and will be needed so much more after the war. Why it might be an event of significance is just this: When he biggest scholarship-giving, layer-getting, school in the country,ets bit, things are bound to happen.
Wade Is All-Star
Cliff "Dynamite" Wade, letter guard on the football team last fall, has given the center berth on the Vichita hockey league all-star sexet. Wade, who has been going some weekends for the Sunday night games, has played for the Dessnas, who lost out to Boeing in the playoff when the former's manager and star player, Eddie Coulter, suffered a serious head injury in the first play-off game.
Making Up For Lost Time
Making Up For Lost Time
The Baker University self-coached cage aggregation is really making up for lost time. Without a coach, for their athletic director Emil S. Lison is still recuperating in a Kansas City hospital after suffering a broken leg 18 weeks ago, the lakers took it upon themselves to run the team, and starting the second semester, Feb. 1, an extensive schedule was drawn up, so intensive, in fact, that they will play five games in the next 22 days.
Brookfield Takes Over
Price Brookfield's 18 points against UU. recently sent the Iowa State center to the top of the Big Six individual scoring heap with a 12.5 average. Jayhawk Charley Moffett, who was handicapped by illness at Ames, scored only three points in that contest, but he still remains third in the conference with an 11-point average, just behind Grove Ramsey, Oklahoma, who boasts 11.8 points per contest.
Lots of Rumpus!
Probably the most excitement and enthusiasm accompanying any high school basketball game anywhere is crumping in Topeka this week where the Trojans are getting ready to tackle the Newton Railroaders Saturday night in the capital city. Newton has waded through 11 consecutive foes including Topeka, and are groomed as the "team to beat" in the state tournament next month. The Teopakens have drubbed two powerful eastern fives, Ward and Shawnee Mission, in their last two games and are hoping to upset Frank Lindley's Newtonians. With a capacity crowd of better than 3,000 assured, the whole city of Topeka is backing their team to the limit. The Chamber of Commerce has had 1,000 car stickers and 100 posters printed. Students have
plastered the school building with "Beat Newton" signs. A 50-foot banner reading "Derail Railroaders" hangs in the gym with a 40-foot "Beat Newton" streamer in the cafeteria keeping the spirit alive during the lunch hour. There will be a pep assembly Friday morning, highlighted by a talk from the game captain against the Railroaders. Then there will be another boisterous rally in the afternoon, with the captain giving the old "fight 'em talk" again. At this meeting 15 members of the giant Topeka High band will signal the final blow-off with a blast of horns in the school's hall. Still not through, the revitalized pep club and T club will hold a pre-game pep rally in the gym, with a parade and snake dance following through the downtown district. A sound truck has been obtained for the parade, too. With all this, and the entire student body yelling their hearts out for them at the game, too, we can't see how the Topeka boys can miss. All we can say is, if they do fail, we would surely hate to be a member of the team entering the school halls Monday morning.
Alumnus Purchases Local Store
Alumni Purchases Local Store Ray M. Reeves, a student at the University from 1914-16, has purchased the Klock Grocery, 900 Mississippi street, including the meat department, from the Klock estate. Mr. Reeves will take over the management the last of the month, after disposing of his Corner Grocer, 303 W. 13th.
One hundred coeds volunteered to aid in the Fourth War Loan Drive at Purdue University, according to the Purdue Exponent.

The Delta Gamma's took first place for the organized houses in the women's basketball tournament for this season by defeating the Chi Omega's in a hard-fought, well-played game.
DG's Win First In Organized Group; Play IWW in Final
Taking the lead at the very beginning of the game, the Delta Gamma's appeared to be slated for the championship. But the Chi Omega's fought hard and overtook the lead and maintained it until just a few minutes before the end. The Delta Gamma's put all steam ahead, and forged up to make it a tie at the whistle.
Tied at the end with a score of 28-28, a five minute play-off took place, and the final score was 33-30 in favor of the Delta Gamma quintet.
Ruth Payne, Delta Gamma, was hitting the baskets and made 24 points for her team. The Chi Omega's high score woman was Elizabeth Baker, who made 20 points. Thirty-three fouls in the game kept the referee busy, and gave several opportunities for free throws for both teams.

Square dancing will be featured at the service men's dancing class, from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. Saturday in answer to many requests from the men, Barbara Winn, president of the WAA, announced today. At a meeting of the WAA board yesterday, it was decided to make this Saturday's class in the form of a party with the women dressing appropriately.

With the growth of popularity in the dancing class, WAA and Tau Sigma have found themselves short of women to act as partners, and have asked any women students who are interested in helping to report at the Community building Saturday night to act as hostesses.

Funeral Rites of Mrs.E.H. Lindley Conducted at 4 p.m.in Museum, Ashes to Be Scattered in Pacific
Funeral services for Mrs. E. H. Lindley, widow of the former chancellor of the University, who died at 4 o'clock Saturday in the University of Kansas hospitals in Kansas City, will be held at 4 o'clock today in Spooner Thayer Art Museum. The Rev. Theodore H. Aszman will officiate. The body will be cremated and at the close of the war the ashes spread upon the Pacific where the body of the retired chancellor was buried when he
was returning from a tour of the Orient with Mrs. Lindley in August, 1940.
Mrs. Lindley had been ill for two weeks. She was taken to the hospital Thursday after having suffered a heart attack.
In the years she has made her home in Lawrence, she has been associated with many women's groups—college, civic, social, literary, and religious. She was president of the University Women's club and president of the Friends in Council, the oldest literary club in Lawrence. She was a member of Chapter AZ of PEO; Kappa Alpha Theta Alumnae club; Lawrence Women's club; the Women's Guild of the Presbyterian church; the American Association of University Women; and the League of Women Voters.
Native of Indiana
She was the former Elizabeth Kidder, member of the famous Kidder family of Richmond, Ind. Both her mother's and father's ancestors for generations back had either lived on Martha's Vineyard or on Nantucket and Mrs. Lindley was often dubbed by her relatives as an "of-islander" because she was born after the family moved to Indiana.
Mr. and Mrs. Lindley's romance developed from a college friendship formed when they were attending the University of Indiana. They were married Sept. 18, 1895. Formerly Mrs. Lindley attended Earlham College but received her bachelor of arts degree at the University of Indiana where she was a member of Kappa Alpha Theta sorority. Members of the University chapter will attend the services this afternoon.
State debate finals for class B schools will be held at the University Saturday, Feb. 12, H. G. Ingham, director of the extension bureau, has announced.
Later she returned to Bloomington to live when Dr. Lindley became a member of the faculty at Indiana University, and those years was active in the campaign of women suffrage serving on the state board. She was also a member of the hospital board in Bloomington and was an officer of the Women's Council of Clubs.
Four or five schools, said the director, will participate in three rounds of debate. Judges have not yet been appointed.

Germans Continue To Resist Near Rome And in Cassino Area
(International News Service)
In Italy the Germans attacked with renewed intensity both in the Rome beachhead and Cassino areas despite losses in men and war material. Some Allied advances were scored, particularly in the Cassino sector where American and British troops now have that important town four-fifths encircled. In the beachhead area, however, it was a bloody fight. Each successive Nazi blow was thrown back, and American troops regained some lost ground but still were far from cracking enemy resistance and launching a general northward stride to Rome, now less than 20 miles away.
Latest dispatches said that five German divisions, including the so called "Elite-Corp," are in operation on the beachhead front with at least an equal number holding the fort at Cassino.
The war on the Russian front took a new twist with a series of violent Soviet air raids on Helsinki, Finland, which comprised a virtual ultimatum to Finnish to denounce her allegiance to Germany and get out of the war or take the consequences. Russian land forces closed in on 75,000 Germans trapped in the Dneiper bend and advanced through old Poland and Estonia to the north.

She also stated that the booths in the library, in the union building, and in the center of Frank Strong hall would be continued This week for the convenience of students who wish to purchase stamps and bonds.
There will be members of CVC selling bonds at the Navy program in Hoch auditorium tomorrow night. It is hoped that purchases made there will boost the sale figures so that the goal may be reached by the deadline date, Feb. 12.

The south and east coasts of Paramushif were shelled, the navy communique revealed, coincident with a new bombing attack, the joint operation being carried out at 10 p.m. Tokyo time, on Feb. 4. "A number of fires were started and one unidentified enemy ship was hit and sunk," the communique said. "Enemy coastal guns returned the fire but U.S. units received no damage."

Tau Kappa Epsilon had a 93 per cent registration of blood donors, the highest of any organized house, and was the only men's traternity to have a registration over 20 per cent, Josephine Abbitt, in charge of recruiting student donors, announced today.
The raid was carried out as a moment when other huge U.S. naval forces, described as the greatest fleet ever to put to sea, were engaged in final operations in the Kwajalein atoll of the Marshall islands.

According to Mrs. Ralph I. Carnuteson, chairman of the registration committee, a comparatively large number of women students were rejected because of low blood pressure.

A case for the psychiatrists: Reverting to something resembling their second childhood, the Phi Psis made a clean sweep of the campus one recent night and "borrowed" lamps (one from each house) from the sororites. Leaving a note behind, the Psi Expeditionary Force explained it was a receipt for the missing, and if the girls were lucky, they might get the lamps back. They especially favored the Chi Omegas by leaving a basket of red apples.

Dean contends the aisle extended as far as from Fristra hall to Robinson gymnasium, and that when the bride entered, she was so far away that he had momentary quolls about whether he was getting married to Sarepta or some unknown.

KU-Fort Riley Battle Tonight In Return Game
The Kansas Jayhawks and the Fort Riley Centaurs will fight it out at the fort tonight in a return battle. Kansas won the initial contest here in December when Bill Lindquist split the netting with a last second looper to give Kansas a thrilling 32 to 31 victory. However, the soldiers were without Dick Harp, former K. U. great, in that meeting and Harp, who scored the winning goal against Oklahoma A&M in the 1940 NCAA playoffs, is expected to be in the RTC lineup tonight. Another Jayawkier, rangy Jack Ballard, will also see action for the cavalrymen.
High point man for CRTC is George Wendell, formerly of St. Benedicts. Wendell, a football player, has led the Centaurs to four straight Kansas Service League victories and scored 19 points in CRTC's most recent triumph over Herington A.A.B., 68 to 30. Another griddler, Keith Caywood, Emporia State immortal, will grace the soldier line-up. Shifterdecker and Pattie complete the soldier starting oster.
The soldiers have been forced to o without practice all week as their coach, Sgt. Leo F. Strangle, ex-lebraska high school mentor, has been unable to schedule the practices because of military duties. Strangle took over when Lt. John Moore was made athletic officer.
The Kansas squad will entrain at 1.05 this morning on the Union Pacific and will return at 4 a.m. Tuesday, arriving in time for morning lasses.
Four Women Remain In Table Tennis Play
The quarter finals of the table tennis tournament were played Saturday, leaving two Kappa Kappa Gamma's, Marjorie Jean Free and Margaret Lillard; a Pi Beta Phi, Barbara Prier; and a Chi Omega, Mary Taylor, still in the running. The semi-finals and finals will be played sometime this week. Missuth Hoover, professor of women's athletics, stated. Miss Free and Mrs.illard will compete in the seminars, the winner playing the high coring player in the game between Miss Prier and Miss Taylor.

A substitute becomes a hero. As only fate would have had it, James Myers, Iowa State sub, took over a starting berth when Bob Sauer, formerly of Washington U., was forced to undergo an appendectomy prior to the Oklahoma game. Myers, who would have otherwise probably warmed the bench, came through with a last minute one-hander that spelled defeat for Oklahoma, 41 to 39.
$\textcircled{1}$$\textcircled{2}$$\textcircled{3}$
That's Tough!
Oklahoma's "fighting youngsters," as the Norman school's sports publicist, Harold Keith, incessantly terms them, have suddenly changed their ways. After the Sooners had pulled two one-point victories out of the bag against Kansas and Missouri, Keith let it be known that the Drakemen had that "extra something"—despite their youth and inexperience (Paine and Vaughan?)
—that just wouldn't let them be beat. All the more credit was given since the two triumphs came on the road. It was the freshman "clutch man," Ken Pryor, that had provided the winning margins of victory. Then on the home court the past week the whole situation was reversed. Pryor did come through with tieing counters in each contest—but that wasn't enough. Both the Norman Skyjackets and the Iowa Cyclones came through with last minute winning baskets that brought the Sooner's downfall.
Drake and Keith on Kurland
In a forthcoming issue of the Saturday Evening Post Drake and Keith will tell the world what they think of Oklahoma A&M's Bob Kurland in an article entitled, "Seven Foot Trouble.' Supporting Dr. F. C. Allen's demand for the 12-foot basket, the two Oklahomaans quote considerably from the good doctor's expose on the subject.
Hugh Fullerton, Jr., AP sports writer, recently stated that when Allen has something to say about a thing he believes in he usually has plenty. Referring to six closely typewritten pages Allen had sent him expounding his issue for the raised basket, Fullerton in his "Sports Roundup" brings out the fact that few Allen critics or other wouldbe rule changers have actually seen from experimentation, as has Allen, the innovations they fight against or propose. Fullerton is helping keep Allen's "cause" alive by intermingling with his other sports notes the question of the goal tender. Just the other night he asked his readers if they knew that the original purpose of the backboard was to keep spectators on the balcony from knocking the ball away from the basket rather than for being used to provide bank shots or rebounds. Fullerton counters by adding that "that was before they had players who could reach up and do the same thing."
Pre-All-Big Six Squat
This is our idea of the squad from which "the experts" will choose their all Big Six team at the conference's conclusion next month. Forwards: Barrington, Kansas; Ray Wehde, Iowa State; Pryor, Oklahoma; Artman, Nebraska. Centers: Brookfield, Iowa State; Ramsey, Oklahoma; Moffett, Kansas; and Pippin, Missouri. Guards—Paine, Oklahoma; McSpadden, Kansas; Collins, Missouri; Oulman, Iowa State; and Gish and Cooley, K-State.
Allen Was Right!
As Dr. Allen predicted they would, the Iowa State Cyclones now appear to have a clear path toward annexing the Big Six crown. Menze's boys are four or five points better on their home court and by clearing the Oklahoma obstacle at Norman they have made good their biggest test. But only after the Sooners had fought back from a seven-point handicap going into the final stages to tie it up with a minute refraining.
Pre-All-Big Six Squad
The same Nebraska team which Kansas virtually annihilated extended the Missouri Tigers, seven point winners over KU., into an overtime period Saturday night before the boys from Mizzou finally won out, 36 to 32. Missouri and Kansas are tied for third and will fight it out here Feb. 26.
Huskers Surprise!

Whew!
As if Long Island's 99 to 68 victory over Rhode Island State Saturday night wasn't bad enough, the undefeated Iowa five had to go plaster it to hapless Chicago, 103 to 31. We wonder what President Hutchins thinks of that. His "go rest when the exercise urge hits you" theory must have even permeated the basketball team.
Major Dale McCarty Returns to Louisiana
Maj. Dale C. McCarty of Lawrence, a graduate of the School of Medicine in 1931, has returned to New Orleans, La., after spending his 15-day leave with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. B. McCarty, 1744 Arkansas street.
Major McCarty of the medical corps is executive manager of a general hospital unit being organized and trained for overseas duty. Six hundred doctors and trained men, 166 nurses, and much equipment make up the unit.
He was a member of the ROTC while at the University.
After graduation, he did postgraduate work in surgery at Cook County hospital in Chicago, commanded a company, and saw active duty.

One Navy team won and another lost in their games with civilian teams in the twin bill of Lawrence basketball league play Friday night. The Machinist's Mates, led by Shea with 14 points, defeated the S.O.W. Ads, 37-30 in the first game of the evening, while the Ship's Company fell before the Irish Rascals, 33-29.
In downing the Ads., who were paced by Hoke with 14 points, the MM's were forced to overcome an 18-16 lead held by the S.O.W. quartet at the half. As only four Ad. players were present for the game, the teams played with four men instead of the usual five.
The Ship's Company, with a total of six players for the game, and one of them, Chief Hantze, severely handicapped with an injured ankle, also suffered from lack of men in their defeat by the Irish Rascals. The Navy team, led by Ware with 17 points, were ahead 17 to 6 at the half, but were unable to hold the advantage. Buck, with eight points, led the Irish Rascals.

U.S. Traps Japs Left Helpless In Marshalls
(International News Service)
Abandoned by their battle-weary navy and stripped by American air power of protection from the skies, thousands of Japanese faced death or capture in the Marshall islands today. Powerful and steadily expanding forces of the marines and infantry troops swarmed through the atolls of the Marshalls cleaning up last pockets of enemy resistance in the Kwajalein area and bringing closer the moment for annihilation of a vast enemy unit left trapped and almost helpless in their cynical abandonment by the war lords of Tokyo.
Enemy fortifications there have not come to expectations but there is no doubt regarding the man-power Japan expended in garrisoning the Marshalls, for 9,000 were encountered and disposed of in Kwajalein alone.
There may be as many as 30,000 Japanese trapped in the 32 far flung atolls of the once peaceful islands that lie directly on the road to Tokyo.
The bulk of Japan's strength in the islands remains on the atolls of Wolfe, Malaoelap, Jaluit, and Milli.
the islands remains on the atolls of Wotie, Maloalap, Jauhit, and Milli, of which have been pounded incessantly by American bombers operating against virtually no aerial resistance. Casually figures for initial phases of the Marshall undertaking released by Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, commander-in-chief of the Pacific area, listed known enemy dead at 8.366 as against 286 Americans killed. Rarely, if ever, have such proportionate losses occurred.
For the second time in succession the Missouri Valley Forensic league will be held at the University. On March 23, 24, and 25, the University of Kansas and Kansas State College will be hosts to the annual tournament, Prof. E. C. Buchler, secretary of the league, announced.
K.U. to Be Host To Speech Group
The schools in the Missouri Valley league are: the state universities of South Dakota, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, and Louisiana; Kansas State College, Wichita University, Iowa State College, and Creighton University. The old Missouri Valley oratorical association, which has been sponsored over 30 years, is combined with the debate league, which was active for 24 years.
Tournaments will be held in debate, oratory, and extemporaneous speaking. The topic question this year is, "Resolved: That a permanent policy of peace control by the federal government should be adopted."
Two Submarines Reported Lost
Washington, (INS) — Two United States marines, the Cisco and the S-44, were reported today by the navy as overdue and presumed lost while on patrol with their estimated crews of about 110 officers and men.
Last Services Held For Mrs. Lindley
Funeral services for Mrs. E. H. Lindley, wife of the former chancellor of the University and active participant in University and Lawrence affairs for over 25 years, who died Saturday, were held yesterday afternoon in Spooner-Thayer Art Museum.
The Rev. Theodore Aszman officiated at the services yesterday. Music was provided by the University String quartet, by a vocal duet by Miss Irene Peabody and Miss Mirebah Moore, and by a violin solo by Waldemar Geltch, professor of violin.
The body has been cremated and the ashes, at the close of the war, will be spread upon the Pacific, where the former chancellor died when he was returning with Mrs. Lindley from a trip to the Orient.
War Bond Rally For Army Tonight
In answer to War Department requests that military personnel, officials and enlisted men, make regular payroll monthly deductions for the purchase of war bonds, the AST unit at the University will hold its war bond rally from 7 to 7:30, this evening, in Fraser theater, Lt. Col. W. L. McMorris, has announced.
The purpose of the rally, at which Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen will be the featured speaker, is to increase the number of soldier trainees making regular purchases of war bonds, and bring up the total from 70 per cent of the men to 90 per cent, Col. Mc-Morris said.
"It is the desire of the Secretary of War that not less than 90 per cent of the military personnel deduct at least 10 per cent of their pay for war bonds" Col. McMorris continued. "These requirements are more than being met by the officials and enlisted cadre on duty with the local AST unit."
Monthly bond purchases, made by 100 per cent of the Army unit, amount to almost 20 per cent of their pay. Lt. Col. McMorris buys a $100 war bond monthly, and recently买 a $500 bond in participation with the Fourth War Bond drive. The AST unit also buys several thousand war stamps extra each month, besides their allotments.
The rally tonight marks the beginning of a competitive drive between companies B and C, of Lindley hall, in the purchase of war bonds and stamps. The drive will end Feb. 25, and the winner will be given a buffet supper at the Union building on Sunday, Feb. 27.
Betty Jo O'Neal, CVC major, in charge of the Fourth War Loan drive on the campus, will be on hand with several CVC bond salesgirls at the AST rally tonight, so that the trainees may begin their purchases immediately.
Moscow, (INS) — Nikopol, key manganese center of the center bend fell today to Red army troops, Premier Marshall Joseph Stalin announced in a special order of the day only a few minutes after he had told of a crushing German defeat in that area. The enemy forces in that area have been routed, he said.
Capt. Benjamin Clark, adjutant is in charge of the AST Bond rally.
Soviets Take Manganese Center
AST's to Play At Bond Party Saturday Night
A band composed of Army trainees on the campus will play for the War Bond party Saturday night in the Military Science building, Betty Jo O'Neal, CVC major, announced today. The dance, jointly sponsored by the Coed Volunteer Corps and the Union Activities committee, will climax the campaign to sell war bonds and stamps which the CVC has sponsored in cooperation with the Fourth War Loan drive now in progress all over the nation.
The total of contributions made in the campaign is now $3,139. Miss O'Neal said she definitely believed that the goal of $5,000 would be reached by the deadline date, Feb. 12. The figure should be boosted considerably tonight when CVC members sell bonds and stamps to ASTP trainees after their bond rally held at 7 o'clock in Fraser theater, Miss O'Neal stated.
At the dance war stamps and bonds will be on sale. Admission to the dance will be a 25 cent war stamp and gives the purchaser a free chance on a war bond. With each 10 cent war stamp purchased, the purchaser is entitled to a vote for queen who will reign at the dance.
Candidates for queen are Shirley Kelley, Miller hall; Betty Lou Perkins, Chi Omega; Dorothy Warren, Pi Beta Phi; Jane Atwood, Gamma Phi Beta; Nancy Neville, Kappa A1 p h a Theta; Virginia Brehm, Kappa Kappa Gamma; Margaret Whightsil, Delta Gamma; Alice Ackerman, Alpha Chi Omega; Dolores Grossenbacher, Alpha Omicron Pi; Peggy Small, Sigma Kappa; Marjorie Shryock, Alpha Delta Pi; Jeanice Allen, Watkins hall; and Ruth Prentice, Corbin hall. The name of Betty Young, College sophomore, has not been announced before. She is a candidate from Jolliffe hall.
U.S. Warns Finland For Pro-Axis Action
Washington, (INS)—Secretary of State Cordell Hull, announced today the United States government has formally warned Finland against the consequences of continuing to remain in the war on the side of the Axis powers. Hull said the American government had notified Finland that the resulting consequences of Finland's collaboration with Germany and the continuance of war against America's allies must be born solely by the Finland government.
Hull's announcement followed Stockholm's report that the Finnish government had asked what the American attitude would be toward Finland if German troops were withdrawn, but the Finns continued in a state of defensive war with the Soviet Union.
The American warning to Finland is believed to have preceded the launching of the Soviet aerial offensive against Finland which has resulted during recent days in the bombing of Helsinki by hundreds of Russian bombers.
Mrs. Zilch Will Attend Press Feed
Beating her way through the jungles of Africa, Eleanor L. Zilch is on her way back to the states, members of the Kansan board have learned. Eleanor, wife of Elmer A. Zilch, patron saint of journalism, reports that she is cutting her latest birth control campaign tour short so that she may be in Lawrence in March for the annual journalism department dinner.
Eleanor will take the place of her beloved husband as guest of honor at the departments social highlight. For years Zilch, inventor of the Zilch Zippy Linotype, has been overcoming great difficulties to attend the dinner—last year he left a foxhole in Bataan to journey by blimp to Lawrence.
This time, however, certain forces are proving too much for even Zilch. Eleanor reports. The erudite newspaper man has been strung upside down in a Japanese prison camp for a year and a half now. Although he has become accustomed to the position, and is at present fairly comfortable, it is impossible for him to get away for the dinner.
Mrs. Zilch reports she has been meeting with only moderate success in South Africa with her campaign and is thinking of abandoning the work to reopen her husband's distillery in Kentucky.
Naval Trainees On Honor Roll
Because more than 90 per cent of their personnel invest regularly more than 10 per cent of their pay in War Bonds, the three Navy V-12 school connected with the University have been placed on the bond honor roll of the ninth naval district.
This was the report received late yesterday from the officer in charge of the sale of War Bonds to personnel of this naval district.
The three groups thus honored are the Medical trainees of the University, both here and at the University hospital in Kansas City, the dental trainees at the University of Kansas City, and the engineering and pre-medical trainees here.
In percentage of participation in the buying of bonds, the Dental school ranked first with 97.9 per cent of its personnel investing more than 10 per cent of their pay. The officers of the school here participated 100 per cent, the V-12 trainees 94.9 per cent and the Ships Company 90 per cent. The Medical students participated 91.6 per cent. The three groups are continuing to uphold the quota.
Ann Jane Ward Studies New Languages in WAC
Pvt. Anna Jane Ward, a student from 36-40, has been assigned to the technical library at the WAC proving ground in Aberdeen, Md.
Private Ward, who hopes to make use of her knowledge of languages in the Army, plans to add Chinese and Japanese to the eight others she knows.
She received her basic training at Ft. Oglethorpe, Ga.
Variety, Laughs To Characterize 'Happy Hour'
Mixing a variety of musical entertainment with light comedy, the Naval Training Station will present the Navy's "Happy Hour" at 7:45 tonight in Hoch auditorium.
The show will open in patriotic theme with Rollin Wittig. S.2e, leading the audience in the national anthem.
The Naval Training Station band, under the leadership of Joe Lueero, F/2c, will then officially present itself to fellow shipmates and to the University in general. The band will play four numbers on the program, two of which are to be "Johnson Rag" and "7-20 in the Books," Lucero stated.
Rones. Words Contorted
Two contortionists, one with h words and the other in ropes, will follow the band in that order. Ted Lehman, senior, will present his now famous dialogue on old English punctuation, complete with asterisks. Then some Navy trainee, as yet unknown, will be bound in ropes and permitted to flop around on the stage until he extracts or endicates himself, whichever happens first. The women of the University will then take over, with a trio composed of Joan Veatch, sophomore; Annette Bigelow, freshman, and Kathryn 'O'Leary, freshman, followed by a tap dance by Jean Richmond, freshman.
March of Time in Silhouette
A short history of the Naval Training school, in the form of a March of Time, will be presented in silhouette, preceding the baton twirling of Betty Young, sophomore.
A trio of 18th division seamen, Ronald Hill, Egon Hansen, and Joe Lucero, accompanied by Raymond Sanborn, also of the 18th with a guitar, will be followed by a "Call from the South Pacific," a two man dialogue.
A tap dance by Maxine Lindley will be followed by another historical presentation in silhouette, this one of the life of one of the station officers.
Betty Cohagen, dean of the "Happy Hour" performers, will sing "Speak Low," a companion by Sarah Frances Phipps, freshman, the last number before the finale of the show, "Here Comes the Navy."
lackson Was Honor Graden Pre-Flight Training
Lt. Maurice B. Jackson, a graduate in 1941 and son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Jackson, 901 Michigan street was an honor graduate of the naval college for primary flight instructors at the Naval Air Station, New Orleans, La., recently.
While at the University, Lieutenant Jackson was a member of Sigma Chi fraternity, Owl Society, honorary fraternity for junior men; and the basketball team.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
U. S. Should Study Latin America
Much has been said about Argentina's break with the Axis. For a long time that country has been the one imperfect sector in the beautifully planned and united American front. Too few persons realize, however, that Argentina is an authoritarian state, and that a break with the Axis does not change her political status or provide her with democratic ideals.
When President Ramon S. Castillo was ousted last summer and Pedro P. Ramirez became president, merely a change of dictatorial power took place. The present ruler uses force to carry out his plans. No one, indeed, could rule Argentina without force. Its political background has not changed, nor have the people.
Persons in the United States find it difficult to comprehend Latin America. But few have tried. The history of Europe is studied—its political movements, theories, and people. Now more is known about Asia's history than that of our own southern neighbor.
True, there is a war on for the very existence of democracy. But if Latin America is not understood soon, it may be too late. It is so much more important to understand and try to educate our neighbors into democratic thinking than to try to oust Nazi agents. Why have these agents been able to take root in Latin American soil more easily than in our own? Because our people won't tolerate authoritarianism. Let's correct the cause of trouble rather than the symptom.
Opera Tickets Selling Rapidly
With all tickets in the first balcony sold out and others going rapidly, the performance of "The Bat," by the Philadelphia Opera company promises to be an entertaining attraction Thursday evening in Hoch auditorium.
The "Fledermaus," a waltz tune, will be heard in its original setting with the dancers singing as they waltz. Other melodies will be sung in solos, duets, trios, choruses, between instrumental interludes. The libretto will be sung and spoken in English.
The opera company of approximately 70 persons, includes a ballet unit, under the direction of Sylvan Levin, and is on a twenty-two state tour of its fourth season. The membership of the company was chosen by Mr. Levin and David Hocker, general manager, from 1,000 young artists. The men tried to find talent not only capable of singing opera but also of dramatic presentation. They wanted to make opera a "good show."
Trained artists who had not had an opportunity to earn a living in opera were selected from stocking salesmen, backwoods' school teachers, models in department stores, and bill collectors. The company was formed of persons from every state and every walk of life.
Students may attend the third of the University Concert series by their activity tickets. Army and Navy men may purchase tickets at half price, and others may purchase tickets at the School of Fine Arts office.
Gatling Invented 350-Shot Gun
R. J. Gatling invented a machine gun during the Civil War that fired 350 shots a minute. Later the gun was adopted by the armies of nearly every nation.
Rock Chalk Talk

HEDRICK
Honors for the most thoroughly knocked out party of the year can be awarded to members of Phi Kappa Psi, before the social season even ends.
The history making fracas began at the Hearth, lamps stolen from sorority houses serving as center pieces for the dinner tables. Between second and third courses when conversation was at its height, Sarle Crawford, rose, screamed, "This silence is deafening" and fired two shots at the ceiling.
Off to such an excellent start, the party progressed to the Kansas room, highly decorated with signs, most of which were designed to arouse the indignation of sorority women ("Pi Phis eat garbage," "That's a cheap lamp, Kappa Alpha Theta," "Are you a Kappa—why?" etc.) A few decorative efforts were bursts of out-and-wait, i.e. the hat rack with palm leaves at the top which bore a coconut and a grapefruit. The explanatory sign: "That damn Burbank!" Contrasting a "How in the Hell'd this get here?" poster planted squarely in the middle of the dance floor was the highly practical "This ain't it" top over a door leading out of the Kansas room.
Paul Smart, Alumnus of 1939 To Receive Pilot's Wings
The fun really began however, with a truth and consequence program staged midway through the evening. R. J.

To end the program up on a lively note. R. J. demonstrated his sleight of hand ability by taking Reed Whetstone's shirt off without unbuttoning his coat. Gene Kittle contested the trick and immediately had his tie clipped off and his shirt torn forcefully off his back. Kittle became enraged and dived for Whetstone who was laughing unsympathetically. The latter's pant gave away and ripped-off. The barelegged Whetstone and Kittle then turned on Atkinson with two lemon meringue pies. Shortly thereafter with R. J. sputtering, Phog Allen (innocent but standby chaperon) covered with a spray of meringue, and two of the brothers all but undressed, an intermission was demanded.

The Phi Bet beer bust also Saturday opened at 6:30 promptly; members assembled in the basement of the house. At 9:12 to the minute, the 192nd quart was gone and the roof fell in. The latter calamity resulted from the increased activity of Phi Bets in general and March Banks, super-hefty medic, in particular. Banks, being overly excited by his allotment of 3 quarts, tried to take the stairs too rapidly. When he landed at the bottom of one flight with a thud, the plaster beneath left its lath resort with a resounding crash.

Popular Concert Gives Audience Thrills, Laughter
Curtain calls throughout the performance, applause that called Director Russell L. Wiley to take bows with the band three times, and the singing of the "Alma Mater" at the end of the program evidenced the appreciation of the audience of the University band concert in Hoch auditorium last night. Absence of the uniformed groups was noticeable in what was expected to be the season's largest crowd.
A high light of the program was the singing of the popular melodies, "Lover Come Back to Me" and "Night and Day" by the women's quartet with Ruth Russell, Elaine Talley, Suzanne Schmidt, and Betty Dell Mills.
The "Victory Garden Suite" created a gay and humorous mood in the audience. The tired white-collar gardener with his aching back and fantastic mind imagined the surprising and ridiculous "Danse of Rhubarb," the jiving, rug cutting "Boogie Woogie Broccoli," and the hallucinations of the prancing and gigging "Carrot Capers."
Of the Victor Herbert favorites sung by the men's and women's quartets with Ruth Russell and David T. Lawson as soloists, "When You're Away," "I'm Falling in Love With Someone," "Italian Street Song," and "Kiss Me Again," were particularly outstanding.
The Jayhawk Trumpeteers—Bill Oakes, Don Diehl and Bill Albers—played "Triplets" with skillful blending and amused the audience with their encore.

Centaurs Win Over Jayhawks Scoring 43 to 38
The Fort Riley CRTC Centaurs evened the score with the Kansas Jayhawks at Junction City's Municipal auditorium last night when the cavalrymen maintained an early lead and won 43 to 38. Kansas had won an earlier game at Lawrence, 32 to 31, when Lindquist threw in the deciding counter in the last 5 seconds of play.
The Centaurus took an early advantage and at half time led 21 to 15. The Jayhawks pulled up several times in the last half, but were never able to overtake their soldier rivals. Barrington Scored Highest
High scorer for the game was Don Barrington, who tossed in eight field goals and two free tosses for an 18 point total. Most of "Duck"'s baskets were of the drive-in, lay-up variety. Other point makers for Kansas were Moffett, who scored seven points, Turner, with three baskets, two of which were long set shots, and Dick Sherwood, and Lindquist, who scored one field goal each. The latter's two-pointer was a splitter, shot from over half the length of the court.
Leading the scoring for Fort Rilley was a newcomer, Rosenhagen, who scored 14 points on seven field goals, most of which were set shots. George Veddell, former star athlete at St. Denepicts, came through with 13 points, nine short of the 22 points he had been averaging in the last four games. Jack Ballard, former K.U. cager, scored five points, Schifferdecker 10 points, Dickman one fielder, and Caywood one charity loss. Dick Harp, former Jayhawk great, did not play, as he was on furlogh.
Referee Was Unpopular
Referee Blair, Junction City High School cage coach, hardly endeared himself with players of either side, especially Kansas. Shortly after the intermission, Wendell, CRTC star, was ordered from the game after a burst of temper, but was allowed to remain. Later in the canto the Kansas captain, Sparky McSpadden, asked the referee his opinion as to what constituted 5 seconds. (The referee had just taken the ball away from Kansas out of bounds in what was definitely less than the allotted time.) The arbitrator seemed injured and despite the Kansas captain's calling time out to discuss the question of rule interpretation, Blair demanded that McSpadden continue playing.
But when the Kansas captain persisted in straightening out the affair, Blair called a technical foul on him. Minutes later McSpadden went out of the game via the foul route with the grinning Blair standing by. Kansas Given 12 Fouls
Altogether 12 fouls were called
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
It seemed strange indeed that a well-drilled Kansas University five last night would have committed more than twice as many fouls as the Centaurs from Fort Riley. The cavalrymen had not practiced for over a week, were without the services of some of their regulars, and had to depend on some newcomers picked up from intramural troop teams. Naturally, the incoherence resulting from a combination that had never played together before and were out of practice would seem to have made for more fouls Yet the game was not particularly rough and the fouling seemed to be about even. But Referee Blain hardly saw it that way, especially after Sparky McSpadden, Kansas captain, had apparently perturbed him by merely asking for a rule interpretation. Even Centaur Jack Ballard, former Jayhawk, apologized for the officiating.
Coaches Depressed
Track and coach Coaches Depressed Track and field coach Ray Kanehl, who will take his charges to Columbia this Saturday for a dual meet with Missouri and to Lincoln the following week for a triangular affair with Nebraska and Kansas State participating, has expressed any thing but cheer over his squad's prospects as he has little outstanding material (at least as time trials would indicate.) However, rival Big Six track and field mentors are reporting the same situation of "scanty material" so little can be said until the teams get together. The Big Six indoor meet will be held in Kansas City on Feb. 26.
Baseball???
Much talk has been going about that this spring would be the "year for baseball because of the long
against Kansas, with only 5 charged to the Centaurs. Thus, Kansas lost the game on free throws as they out-scored the soldiers from the field, 18 to 17. The game was never exceedingly rough nor quite out of hand.
The soldier five has had to rely on players from troop intramural teams as their regular players have been so hard to count on with military duties and furloughs interfering. Several have also been shipped out.
Soldiers Outfought K N
The soldiers, however, must be given credit for outfighting the collegians. The Kansas team appeared to lack leadership and time and again committed blunders. The Jayhawkers on many occasions set up screens, yet failed to have a man in position to shoot.
Jack Ballard, a member of last year's Kansas team, played a good game and controlled most of the rebounds, especially off the Kansas boards. The 6-6 guard was glad to see Captain McSpadden, a former mate.

term which would carry over into warm weather. However, what we are wondering is what will the team be formed with. It was a hard search to find suitable material in football, basketball, and especially track. With many athletes participating in the track and field sports and with many of the best diamond prospects unavailable because of spring football which Coaches Shenk and Schaake are planning to start next month, baseball seems out of the question. Well, time will tell.

Oklahoma Coach "Shorter" Luster will start spring grid practice March 6. With 13 lettermen returning including Derald Lebow, all-Big Six back, Bob Mayfield, all-conference center, and Co Captain "Dub" Wooten, Big Six end, Luster is far happier than he was last July when with only one numeral winner, Wingback Boone Baker, he made his oft-quoted comment that "he'd be comin' in on a wingback and a prayer."
Headed for Ninth Title
After trimming Topeka 35 to 24 last Saturday night, Frank Lindley's brawny Newton Railroaders seem "unbeatable" on their quest of capturing the state title for the ninth time. Playing before 4,000 partisan fans (the largest crowd in Topeka High history), the invaders chalked up their twelfth straight victory.

Legal Ruling Lets Nisei,
Aliens Buy Colorado Land
That Colorado has no law which bans either American-born Japanese or even aliens from buying and owning lands and other properties, was the decision passed down by a ruling from the attorney general's office recently.
Some protests from two different sections of the state over the purchase of real estate by these people brought about the announcement.
Any student with literary ambitions may win $100, $75, or $50 first, second and third prizes offered this spring by the Hattie Elizabeth Lewis essay contest. This award will be bestowed upon the three students writing the best essays on Applied Christianity. The contest is open to any student in the University.
Students May Win Three Money Prizes In Literary Contest
any student According to Miss Lulu Gardner, professor of English, freedom of choice in the matter of subject is encouraged, but a few examples of modern problems which may be applied to the teachings of Jesus are "Propaganda and Pressure Groups," "Socialization of Medicine, Race Conflict, International Cooperation. Foundations of a Lasting Peace, and Juvenile Delinquency.
Rules of the contest provide that the contestant must, not later than April 17, 1944, hand in at the Chancellor's office a sealed envelope containing the real name of the contestant and a tentative outline of the discussion. On the outside of this envelope must be written the assumed name of the contestant and the exact title of his essay, Miss Gardner urged.
Awards will be made by the committee and will be announced at Commencement. Members of the committee are Miss Gardner; Elmer F. Beth, associate professor of journalism; Miss-Mattie E. Crumrine, instructor of romantic languages; and Miss Sarah G. Laird, associate professor of English.
Essays must be not less than 5,000 or more than 10,000 words in length, she said, and each contestant must hand in three copies of his essay at the Chancellor's office by May 15, 1944.
Essays must be typewritten, double spaced and provided with a table of contents, footnotes, and bibliography and must be signed with the writer's assumed name, she added.
Students desiring further information may see Miss Gardner in room 303 of Fraser hall.

Two thousand dollars has been given by the class of 1943 for the dining terrace. Money for the dance pavilion has not been raised yet. When the pavilion and the dancing terrace are completed, the class gift of $1200 in war bonds will be cashed and used for construction of the walk.

The Chancellor was called to California in his capacity as adviser to the army air forces educational commission.
Trainees Enjoy 'Happy Hour'
Presented to a medium-sized audience, the Navy "Happy Hour" brought entertainment to civilians and Navy trainees alike in Hoch auditorium last night.
Especially pleasing to the trainees of the Machinist's hnd Electrician's Mates Schools was the March of Time, in silhouette, depicting the history of the school. Narrated by Chief Yeoman George Starkey, the figures portrayed important events of the school. The feminine part of the greetings and farewells to the first machinist's mate division to train at the school were emphasized in the scenes.
Another highlight of the March of Time was the greeting between a machinist mate and a V-12 trainee, in which the boys exchanged hand salutes, with the right thumb about three inches below and the left of the usual saluting position. Lindley's Dancing Pleases
The dancing of Maxine Lindley and Jean Richardson received immense spontaneous approval from the men, as did the baton twirling of Betty Young. Betty Cohagen, many time performer on the "Happy Hours," received her usual acclaim upon singing "Speak Low," and the applause to the trio of Joan Veatch, Annette Bigelow, and Kathryn O'Leary further indicated that the
A gift of twelve books on geology and travel from Richard N. Todd, V-12, of El Dorado, Kan., has been given to the library of the Dyche museum of vertebrate paleontology. Dr. Claude W. Hibbard, curator, has announced. The books oroginally belonged to Dr. J. E. Todd.
Twelve Books Are Given To Dyche Museum Library
(continued to page three)
Dr. Hibbard said that the books are invaluable to the University because they help to build up an efficient working library to be used by students in the museum while they are doing research in a particular field.
Alumni Membership Sought of Seniors
Subscriptions to membership in the Alumni Association may be made by seniors in the March graduating class next week. Eloise Penner, member of the publicity committee of the senior class, announced today.
"They will be contacted personally," she said, "and the membership is entirely optional. It is not included in the senior class dues."
Membership in the Association costs $2 a year for the first five years after graduation, Miss Penner explained. This membership will entitle the holder to receive the graduate magazine which is published eight and sometimes nine times a year.
"The magazine is nice to have," Miss Penner commented, "as it informs graduates of the activities of their former classmates."
Hill Bond Drive Reaches $4,250 After Army Rally
Subscriptions totalling more than $500 by the AST trainees and approximately $150 by the enlisted cadre resulted from the Army bond rally held last evening in Fraser theater. These contributions were largely responsible for the boost in the University subscription, which is now $4,257.80, only $742.20 under the goal of $5,000. Betty Jo O'Neal, CVC major, announced today.
Following a short talk by Lt. Col. W. L. McMorris, who explained that the Secretary of War has asked for 90 per cent of AST trainees to deduct 10 per cent of their pay monthly as well as make special contributions to this Fourth War Loan, Dr. F. C. Allen addressed the AST unit.
"We must get behind this drive so we can still have our self-respect when these men overseas come home. That's the least any American can do!" "Phog" Allen declared, after an argument on the sound investment which war bonds offer.
Competition between Companies C and B of Lindley hall has been put on a proportional basis, and following the rally, the trainees started off their drive by purchasing stamps and bonds from CVC bond sales-girls, who had set up booths at Fraser, under the direction of Betty Jo O'Neal. CVC major.
Women selling bonds were Heloise Hillbrand, Jean Fergus, Mariette Bennett, Nancy Freeto, Shirley Otter, Shirley Kelley, Leatice Gibbs, and Jacqueline Simmons.
All trainees were not able to subscribe last night, and will be given an opportunity to purchase bonds and stamps at a booth which will be placed in Lindley hall by the CVC to be open daily from 12 noon to 1 p.m., and from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. The winning company will be guests at a buffet supper in the Union building. Sunday, Feb. 27.
Besides their contributions to the Fourth War Bond drive, many trainees signed pledges for regular monthly deductions to be taken from their pay checks for purchase of bonds, Lt. Col. McMorris said. A quota of $9,000 has been set by

Minorities Group to Hear Kalisch
Minorities Group to Hear Kalisch Dr. Gerhard K. Kalish, mathematics instructor, will speak at a coffee hour to the Minorities Commission at Henley house, at 4:30 Monday. He will speak on "The Rise of Semitism in Germany."
Hankins, secretary of the Senate, announced today.
The calendar committee hereafter will be made up of four faculty members and two students with full voting power. Heretofore students have sat with the committee merely through invitation.
The program adopted, which provides for separate schedules for the civilian and V-12 classes, will be one hour in length and given in class rooms at the regular hours. The instructor may hold two one-hour finals at his own discretion.
Classes in which both civilian and V-12 students are enrolled will follow the V-12 schedule. However, instructors with only a few V-12 students enrolled in a class may follow the civilian program if they wish, provided they give the V-12 men earlier exams.
The segregation of finals is necessary because all V-12 examinations must be finished by Monday evening, Feb. 28, and D's and F's must be reported by 9 a.m. Tuesday, Feb. 29.
The spring semester begins with the psychological and attitude examinations on Saturday, March 4, for new students. Students will register and enroll on Monday, March 6, with enrollments continued through Tuesday. Classes will commence Wednesday, March 8.
Anatomy Dept. Now in Haworth
Finishing touches have been practically completed on the new department of anatomy quarters, of the School of Medicine, in Haworth hall, and the first class is scheduled to move in this weekend, University authorities announced today. The rest of the department will move in next week. The remodelled structure, will be completely occupied by March 1.
The department of anatomy has been housed in Snow hall since the destruction of the Anatomy building by fire last March. The last session of the legislature appropriated $84,000 for remodelling Haworth hall, and contracts for the construction work were approved during the summer. The anatomy department quarters were remodeled from the space formerly occupied by the department of mining and metallurgical engineering. This department will be housed in Lindley hall, the new mineral industries building.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 9.
THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Coeds Can Try Army Life Saturday
On Saturday University women may try army life for a day. Though it cannot possibly substitute for the real life or meaning of WAC, it is an opportunity for uncertain women to receive some conception of what the WAC means and what it is doing.
Most organized houses have seen short movies on the beginning, organization, and life of the WAC, but Saturday more comprehensive movies will be shown. By marching, eating, in fact living as a body for one day, coeds can feel a part of the armed services.
Not only will women have an opportunity to feel as a WAC, but they will meet WAC officials. They will have a chance to talk to more WACs than ever before. They will see the many types of intelligent women who have joined the WAC.
Some will participate in the army day out of curiosity, some for the novelty, and some with a serious interest and desire to learn more about joining the WAC. All will have fun and a new experience, and will enjoy a rare opportunity.
The WAC has many jobs to offer to much needed college graduates. Experience in their field of work should tempt many at least to consider the opportunities in the WAC, besides the feeling of directly aiding the war effort, in a vital branch of the armed services.
Letters to the Editor
I am behind the times in regard to life on the hill since my mail is just catching up with me.
In regard to the letter to the Editor of the "War Conscious Coed," I only wish that it were plausible that the Army allow men to apply for immediate actice service but it is not, as the Army will not allow their highly specialized coordinated organizations to be split up to send individuals overseas.
This is contrary to the propaganda we have been reading lately which, I believe, is designed to placate those to be hit hard by the tightening of the draft regulations. In the Army the best interests of the organization are considered before those of the individual. Each organization is set up according to a Table of Organization, which indicates the number of each type of specialist to be in that organization.
Those specialists are trained together to accomplish a certain type of job in the most efficient manner. The soldier does his job in his organization and has nothing to say in regards to the movements of his organization or the like. Such decisions are handed down by higher headquarters that have access to information enabling them to know what is needed for the best interests of the service.
Received Later
Received two more Kansans today and am inclined to believe that the Kansan is a sensationalistic publication. I do not take issue with the result of the poll of the University men in regard to the Women's Service Forces, but do not believe that many college men could use such immature reasoning in arriving at their conclusions.

HILL BOND DRIVE--were more than amazed when they opened a box—six feet long or so—and were confronted with the life-like head of an alligator emerging from the fluffs of tissue paper. Further unwrapped disclosed the monster's body—stuffed but terrifying. When the girls got a little more used to the thing, a gift to Joan Teed from a Hutchinson hopeful, they stood it up in the front hall, complete with cigarette and sailor hat. After a few days of such notoriety, the bit of taxidermy will be at home in the Pi Phi basement.

Rock Chalk Talk
By HANNA HEDRICK
One way of getting there: Molly Stark, 1244 Louisiana, was standing on the Kansas City station platform with about a hundred other people waiting to board a Lawrence-bound train. The situation looked pretty hopeless until a GI suddenly grabbed her arm and shouted, "Conductor, can't my wife get on with me?" The conductor was gullible, and they both got seats.
- * *
But the face is familiar: A mixed group of university people went to Kansas City Saturday evening. After dinner at the Green Parrot—with a lusty chorus of Rock Chalk Jay Hawk (led by Annette Bigelow and Vic Costello) between courses almost everybody adjourned to Indian Hills. Edison Brewer Shive, PT6 and a Phi Gam, orated from the beginning on how this was one time he was sticking strictly to cokes. The party progressed, and Ed audibly "stuck to cokes" during the entire evening. However, from 11:30 on he called date Charlotte Nelson, Alice.

Just a remembrance: The Pi Phis
The Blanks, now holding second place in Lawrence League basketball play, will meet two teams tonight in a twin bill in the community building, the Ship's Company in the first game, and the SOW Techs in the nightcap.
Blanks Play S.O.W., Ship's Company
In their first meeting, the Blanks barely nosed out the Navy team by two points, and although Bock, leading scorer of the league, is expected to be in his usual form, the decided improvement in play of the Navy squad spells trouble for the student quintet.
Against the SOW team, however, the Blanks, even though winded from their first game, should have no trouble in keeping the situation well in hand.
ASL Members Ask Wage Freeze Raise
Washington, (INS) — Four ASL members of the War Labor Board demanded today that the WLB "candidly admit" the insufficiencies of current price controls and raise the "little steel" wage freeze to compensate for higher living costs.
The workers of America can not rely on price control as it now functions to preserve their standards of living," the ASL officials said.
"The only recourse left to workers is to obtain wage-raise increases which will adequately compensate for the ever widened disparity between wage rates and the cost of living."
Capt. James E. Harris, a graduate in '40, was promoted to the rank of major recently at the Marine depot in San Diego, Calif., where he is a signal officer. After service overseas, he returned to this country in October.
Washington, (INS) — The office of war information announced today that American war casualties total 150,478 including 34,179 dead, 51,-292 wounded, 34,746 missing, and 30,261 prisoners of war.

The Socrates of Corbin hall: Doris Wright, Corbin, didn't know her roommate, Louise Earnheart, had such absolute trust in her, and therefore, the fact that the latter almost left this world on the strength of a practical joke, can hardly be considered anybody's fault. Louise wanted a glass of water and Doris fixed it—adding peroxide and hydrogen for kick. The victim was supposed to be highly suspicious—but that part of the joke fell through. Unquestioningly, Louise drank the whole thing.
'Can Bomb Tokyo To Ground'—Grew
Washington, (INS)—Former ambassador to Japan Joseph C. Grew told the senate military affairs committee today that it is possible to burn whole Japanese cities to the ground through mass aerial offensive. Testifying before the senate military affairs committee in favor of national service legislation, he warned, however, that the Japanese are so insured to earthquake and other disasters that their morale may not crack. "When bombing of Japanese cities begins we will be in a position to burn cities to the ground." he said. "We could destroy the national industrial power of Tokyo by bombing."
Japanese Americans Made Acceptable For Military Service
Following the evacuation of the West Coast, nearly all Nisei were classified as 4-C. The bravery shown by the 100th battalion, which is composed of Japanese Americans, is thought to be largely responsible for the change in policy.
Japanese Americans will be considered acceptable for military service and will be reclassified by their selective service boards on the same basis as other citizens, according to a recent announcement of the War Department. They will be called for induction if physically qualified and not deferred.
Special recognition is paid each year to student scholastic achievement at the Honors Convocation, held late in the spring semester. The names are announced of the highest 10 per cent in scholarship in the senior class of each school, and of the leading juniors, sophomores and freshmen in each school. Notation of the honors is made in the official record of each recipient.

Funds Given to Keep Nursery School Here
The University has received word that a grant has been made from the Lanham funds to continue the support of the nursery school here in Lawrence. According to Miss Edna A. Hill, professor of home economics, part of the funds will also be used to establish a second nursery school, to be sponsored by the University, at Sunflower village, in De Soto.
Correction
In the editorial appearing Monday, it was said that Mrs. E. W. Lindley was president of the University Women's club at the w. of her death. Mrs. Deane W. Malott is the president of that organization and Mrs. Lindley was president at the time when her husband was Chancellor.

U.S. Will Contribute Two-thirds UNRRA Funds
Washington, (INS) — "Assistant Secretary of State Dean Acheson said today the United States will furnish about two-thirds of the United Nations funds to carry out postwar European relief. He told the senate foreign relations committee this nation's $1,350,000,000 participation in UNRRA will be the lion's share of the approximately two billion dollar total expected. He said Russia will not contribute to UNRRA relief funds because "its territory has been invaded."
Washington, (INS) — The house referred the controversial soldier-vote bill to a joint conference committee today with instructions to its representatives to stand pat on the house-approved measure.

Band Makes First Appearance
The new Navy band, composed of machinist's and electrician's mates and one V-12, played two jump tunes, its first appearance on the Hill. Although lacking full instrumentation, it was "in the groove."
A Navy quartet from the 18th division, Joe Lucero, Ronald Hill, Egon Hanson, and Raymond Samborn, completed the program, except for the unfortunate Navy trainee who sat on the stage, bound in ropes, throughout most of the program. The star of an escape act, the trainee was bound to a chair in the early part of the evening, and there he remained, framed occasionally in the glare of the spot light.

"The story of radar is just beginning to be written. It will be amazing to see how it is helping win the war, and mathematics has been a great help in this field." Glen A. Richardson, instructor in electrical engineering, told the Mathematics club yesterday.
To the 70 persons, most of whom were service men. Richardson stressed the importance of radar which was not made known to the public until last March. He explained how radar works, is produced, and will be used after the war.

The Water's Fine For Polar Bears In Potter's Lake
"Come on in, the water's fine".
That seemed to be the attitude of the lad seen splashing around in Potter's lake in full view of the entire Navy school at 4:20 Monday afternoon.
Clad only in "Nature's Own," the boy spent several minutes in the water, warmed by the afternoon sun while three or four comrades stood on the bank, refusing the invitation.

3 Big6 Meets Provide Tests For Track Team
With three track meets in Big Six competition on successive Saturdays ahead, Coach Ray Kanehl is having difficulty figuring entry lists.
difficulty giving. The Jayhawks are scheduled to meet the Missouri Tigers in Columbia Saturday, engage in a triangular meet with Nebraska and Kansas State at Lincoln on Feb. 19, and participate in the annual indoor Big Six meet in Kansas City's Municipal auditorium on February 26.
The Kansas mentor is confronted with the problem of building a track cam out of a lot of raw material, and with only two lettermen in the ot. Tom Scofield, last year's winner of the high jump in the Big Six outdoor competition with a leap of 6 feet four, is figured a sure point winner in all meets, and Frank Stannard, high hurdler who won second place in the tall timber event at the indoor meet last year, are the only veterans.
the only veterans.
Scifid is also something of a broadjumper, and doubles in the 440 particularly as a member of the rea-
ty team. Stannard also competes in the low hurdles and the broad jump.
Juch Freshman Material
Kanehl has a lot of new freshman and sophomore material which may develop as the season comes along, but as yet most of it is untested, or instance Joe Dickey, Kansas City, Mo, has been showing good form in the dashes and broad jump. Charles (Kink Kong) Keller, another Kansas City student, and lettered football tackle, has been tossing the weights around and will probably represent the crimson and blue in these events. Junius Penny, Lawrence, football letterman, is another weight man with a little experience against Big Six rivals.
Others Are Possible Entries
Other men who are possible entries in the coming meets are Whitson Godfrey, Overland Park, distances; Rolland Hamilton, Whitewater, distances; John Hawley, Republican City, Neb. 880 dash; Jeone Heringstad, Bremerton, Wash.;istance; Walter Isaacson, Hiawatha, lashes; Harry Johnson, Lawrence, ashes and jumps; Robert Lillijridge, Hutchinson, sprints and quarter mile; Harvey Morrow, Colorado Springs, pole vault; Bob Oliver, Grand Prairie, Tex. 440 dash; sean Patterson, Leavenworth, hurles; Robert Provert, Greeley, Colo.;istance runs; Jim Richey, Atchison, ashes; Earl Robinson, Auburn, Vash., dashes; William Schell, Whita, distance; William Stewart, Tacoma, Wash., dashes; and David Whyte, Kansas City, Mo., William Yonally, Tonoxieton, and J. K. Burbach, Hebron, Neb., all 880 yard dash candidates.
"I have no idea what we will do",
said. Kanehli. A lot of these new boys look pretty good, but most of them are inexperienced. We will put a team in the field."
Jaw, Teeth and Spine Of Catfish Donated To Dyche Museum
A fossil beaver jaw, horse teeth, and a pectoral spine of a large catfish have been donated to the Dyche museum of vertebrate paleontology by Lester F. Phillis of Canton, Kan. Mr. Phillis collected the specimens in Trego county.
The beaver jaw is the first of its kind to be placed in the museum collection. "It is a valuable addition to the scientific collection used by students in the study vertebrate paleontology." said Dr. Claude W. Hibbard, curator of the Dyche museum of vertebrate paleontology.
From the Sidelines
By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Somebody is slipping down Oklahoma way. Reports are out that the highly touted Ken Pryor, most publicized freshman cager in years, will be transferred to Pittsburgh State Teachers College March 1. Pryor, a member of the Navy V-12 program, will still be around, however, for the Sooner's three remaining Big Six games and the contest with Oklahoma A&M February 19. Late last fall when the grapevine had it that the possibility that the army would allow their ASTP trainees to participate in collegiate basketball was very strong, an influential Oklahoma congressman saw to it that Gerald Tucker was transferred to the AST unit at the Norman school. That was one of the reasons the Jayhawks refused to play a special nonconference pre-season game at Oklahoma City with the Sooners. But now they're letting one of their stars get away from them. Come on, Okahomans, you can't let them pull that on you!
K-Staters Wrecked!
As if the losing of three of the first five since the start of the season wasn't bad enough, Cliff Rock, coach of the Kansas State Wildcat basketball team, received the deciding blow Tuesday when his outstanding scorer, Norville Gish, was lost to the army. Gish, who joined the service ranks with ex-regulars Lou Otto, Bob Schwirtz, and Lee Doyan, scored 21 points in the recent game against Nebraska, the highest individual total of the current Big Six season. The only main-stay left is Freshman Charles Cooley, Cunningham ace, who also may not be able to finish the season. The service-wrecked Aggies lost to Missouri Monday night, 30 to 45, in Gish's last game. The victory put the Tigers in third place ahead of the Kansas Jayhawks. Both teams have lost two games and the Jayhawks must win the return battle here Feb. 26 if they are to wind up in the first division. An Allen-coached five has not finished outside the first three since the Big

A REAL INVESTMENT
Columbia, Mo., Feb. 8—Dale Steffey, veteran high jumper who has turned now to the broad jump and hurdles, and Bill Bangert, who won his letter in the shotput as a freshman last year, will provide just about all of the experience the University of Missouri will be able to muster when the Tigers meet the University of Kansas in a dual meet here Saturday afternoon, Coach Tom Botts said today.
Six conference was formed in 1929. In fact, it was only in 1939 that the Jayhawks finished as low as third.
CARL'S GOOD CLOTHES
Bangert, a 230-pound 4-F athlete, attended Berkeley high school in St. Louis County, but had no track competition until he came here last year. He won the Ozark A. A. U. shotput championship at St. Louis last spring with a toss of more than forty-five feet.
Missouri Reports Little Track Material
Paired with Bangert in the shotput is Bill Ekern, M.U. footballer, who has confined his university activity in track to intramural contests until this season. Two track numeral men are on Bott's roster, Eldon Behle of Ferguson, a 2-miler who failed to letter last year, and Larry Willett, formerly of St. Louis McBride high school, who won a numeral two years ago, but who failed to report for track last spring because of a leg injury.
Leland Bussell, freshman football halfback, appears to be the most hopeful Missouri candidate in the short sprints, and probably will have company in Reed Scherer of Mexico and Jimmie Snell of Rocheport as starters in the 60-yard dash. Wallace Hoverer, from Kansas City Northeast, and Bob Busch, from Montgomery City, are the probable
The Delta Gamma's, who won the championship for the organized houses, maintained an early lead, and throughout most of the game it appeared that they would take the tournament. Ruth Payne, Delta Gamma, was hitting the baskets during the first half but was so closely guarded during the second half, she was able to make only one basket. She was high point woman for her team, scoring 11 points. Leeta Marks, Delta Gamma, made nine points.
IWW Wins Overtime From Delta Gamma In Intramural Final
A five minute play-off gave the championship of the women's intramural basketball tournament to the IWW's who pushed ahead and won the game last night from the Delta Gamma's by a score of 31 to 22.
Lavone Jacobson, who played on the IWW team, was high point woman for the whole game, hitting eight field goals and three free throws, making a total of 19 points. Ten fouls were called against the Delta Gamma's, with eight fouls charged to the IWW's.

DG's Are Winners Of Organized Houses
Contrary to the previous report, the Delta Gamma's won the championship for the organized houses in the women's basketball tournament rather than the Chi Omega's. The score was 33 to 30 in favor of the Delta Gamma's after a five minute play-off of the tie at the end of the game.
Until the final game last night with the IWW's, the Delta Gamma's had been undefeated in the tournament. When they played the Theta's their score was 33 to 15. They walked over the Alpha Chi's with a score of 41 to 9, and defeated Corbin hall with a score of 31 to 13. The Gamma Phi's lost to the Delta Gamma's, 19 to 9. In the game against the Chi Omega's the Delta Gamma's came out victorious with 33 points to the 30 points made by their opponents.
Phi Psi's Beat Fijis To Lead League A
The Phi Psi's conquered the Phi Gam's last night, 20 to 14, to take the undisputed lead in the "A" league in the intramural basketball chase. The Phi Gam's are now tied with the Blank's as runners-up, each having one loss. The Blanks will have to defeat the Phi Psi's to wind up in a play-off spot as they lost their game to the Phi Gam's by one point.
In the "B" League the Sig Alph's and the Phi Delt's remain at the top as both still boast a clean slate.
Chestnut, Luring, and Pyle led the Phi Psi attack, each scoring three baskets. High for the Fiji's was Whitenberger, whose seven point total also made him high for the game.

Nazis Claim Allies 'Uprooted'
Dr. Shirkey is married and the father of three sons. He is a member of the Masonic Order, the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity, and the International Society of Theta Phi.
London, (INS) — The German-controlled Rome radio tonight broadcast a claim that as a result of continued Nazi pressure on the Anzio-Nettuno beachhead south of Rome, Allied front-line defenses have been "uprooted" and heavy casualties inflicted. The claim was not confirmed by any responsible Allied source.

Allies Near Rome Put on Defensive
The "battle of the beachhead" raged with unabated fury in the countryside south of Rome today and the Allied fifth army was thrown definitely on the defensive. Nazi Field Marshal Albert Kesselring's army, heavily reinforced by mobile armor and backed up by squadrons of fighter planes, maintained a steady tempo of attacks lunging fiercely at the American outer defense line near Cisterna in four separate offensive actions. All were hurled back, and no crack was made in the solid Anglo-American line. But there was not the slightest indication that the German effort had spent itself.
Battlefront dispatches made it amply clear that despite Allied bombing attacks on communications and supply lines in the Rome area and to the north, Kesselring has been able to maintain a steady supply of reinforcements. And until this flow is choked off there is little hope for diminution of the enemy offensive.
Planes of the Mediterranean command plastered enemy held areas without resting, maintaining the hour by hour bombing which has already witnessed a record total of 1.500 separate sortees.
For the third time within a month Flying Fortresses staged a massive daylight raid on the industrial city of Brunswick in north central Germany, one of the principal aircraft manufacturing areas of the Reich and home of the Messerschmidt.

English Performance of 'The Bat With Viennese Story, Strauss Music To Be Presented In Hoch Tonight
The Philadelphia Opera company will present the light opera, "The Bat," (Die Fledermaus) with its music by Johann Strauss, at 8:20 tonight in Hoch auditorium.
Sherbon to Get Scrapbook In Honor of 75th Birthday
The 75th birthday of Dr. Florence Brown Sherbon, professor of home economics at the University, who has brought national recognition to the University and to herself for her outstanding
work in the field of child development, will be observed tomorrow. On that occasion she will be presented a memorial scrapbook prepared by members of the departmental staff under the direction of Miss Edna Hill.
Typical of the many letters of tribute to Dr. Sherbon contained in the book are those from D. B. Armstrong, a vice-president of the Metropolitan Life Insurance company, with whom she was associated from 1924 to 1938 as a member of the Advisory Educational group of the School Health bureau for the company, and from Chancellor Deane W. Malott.
Receives Praise from Friends
Mr. Armstrong's letter, in part,
reads;
"Dr. Sherbon has served the University with faithful loyalty for 27 years," the Chancellor said.
"You have given truly distinguished service by the highest scholarship and creative work combined with inspiring intellectual leadership in the classroom."
Two of Dr. Sherbon's recent books, "The Child," 1941, and "The Family"
"You will be remembered for your inspiring leadership, your high accomplishments and valuable contributions to the field of education, and always held in affectionate regard by those who have been privileged to be closely associated with you."
Wrote Chancellor Malott;
The opera, climaxing the concert series, is expected to attract a large audience and the fact that it is being presented in English is expected to add to the interest, especially to the

Atkinson to Be MC for Dance
R. J. Atkinson, junior engineer, has been chosen by the CVC and Union Activities committee as master of ceremonies for the Bond dance to be given at 9 p.m. Saturday in the Military Science building, Betty Jo O'Neal, CVC major, announced today.
Total contributions in the CVC war stamp and bond drive took a hike of $250 since yesterday's announcement, she said. A considerable part of this last increase was made by the Jay James, girls' pep organization. The Jay James are the first student University function to contribute to the drive. Their contribution brought the total up to $4,500, only $500 from the goal of $5,000 and the cost of a plane rearming boat.
The drive will end Saturday night with a dance in the new Military Science building. Scheduled to high light the dance program are Allen Crafton, professor of speech, who will sing old-time war songs, and Elaine Talley, Fine Arts sophomore, who will sing some of the present popular war songs.
The candidates for queen will be introduced at 9:30 p.m. Saturday and the queen will be announced immediately following the program of songs at 10:30. The queen will then draw for the winner of the bond which is to be given away.
Admission to the dance is a twenty-five cent war stamp, and chances on the bond will be given with the purchase of each 10 cent stamp.
younger students.
The scene of the opera is laid in Vienna in the time of Johann Strauss. The story is in three acts. Gabriel Eisenstein, a banker, has been found guilty of a minor violation of the law and returns to his home to make preparations for his short stay in prison. His friend, Dr. Falke, suggests that Eisenstein attend a gay party at Price Orloisky's before he appears at the jail the next morning. Falke is really planning a joke on Eisenstein in re-in sometime before.
Happily drunk, Frank, the warden, takes up his duties at the jail the next morning. Soon Prince Orlofsky and his guests arrive to see the outcome of Falke's joke. Rosalinda is worried over the meeting of her husband and Alfred. Adela has her interest in the charming Frank of the night before. Eisenstein is annoyed by the whole business. By the finale everyone is in a happy humor.
Eisenstein goes off to the party.
Meanwhile his wife, Rosalinda,
remains at home, anticipating a visit
from Alfred, her old admirer. Frank,
the warden who is to escort Eisen-
stein to the jail, goes to the soiree
at Orlofsky's. Alfred leaves Rosalinda
and goes to the party. Rosalinda
goes to the party, since she
has had an invitation from Falke,
who has cleverly ordered the stage
for his revenge on her husband.
At Prince Orlofsky's villa the characters assume different names and wear costumes which conceal their real identity. Eisenstein makes love to his wife, Rosalinda. Eisenstein and his warden, Frank, become close friends. Adele, Rosalinda's maid, becomes interested in the warden.
To Jail to Witness Outcome
The performance will be sung and spoken in English. The "Laughing Song" and the "Fledderma Waltzes" will be among the familiar melodies of the opera. Ezra Rachlin will direct the orchestra. The opera company with its supporting symphony orchestra, ballet, elaborate scenery, and lavish array of costumes is currently playing its fifth season.
Activity tickets - will admit students. Army and Navy men may buy tickets at half price, and others may buy tickets at the School of Fine Arts office.
Improve Labor Conditions Or No Ships, Says Land
Washington, (INS)—Admiral E. S. Land, chairman of the Maritime Commission told Congress today that unless labor conditions are improved the nation will not turn out the ships needed to transport fighting men overseas in 1944. Testifying before the senate military affairs committee Admiral Land advocated national service legislation as a means of reducing labor turnover in the shipyards.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Meet Makes Seniors Realize Their Position In Whole of University
When the senior class met yesterday for its annual meeting, many seniors, perhaps for the first time, received some conception of their part in the University as a large organization. The realization that the next class meeting would be held in ten years made many think of K.U. as not merely a place for several years of classes, but also as a lifetime influence.
An assortment of class banners caught the eyes of seniors, who began to feel a definite part of the University. Even the arguments over a class gift showed the desire of the students to leave something in their alma mater which would become a part of tradition and life of K.U.
A degree means what the individual has accomplished for himself in college, but the institution from which it is issued means a great deal to the outside world, said Richard B. Stevens, president of the Alumni Association. And all graduates are proud that the good reputation of Kansas University has been built up. It is a challenge to seniors to add to this reputation after graduation and an inspiration to do well whatever they choose to do. As a person, as an employee, and as a friend, graduates of Kansas University have the opportunity to show their training and experience gained here.
Many senior classes have had their annual meeting and have gone. Each probably thought of its own individuality and importance. But each senior class, with its leadership in University life, becomes a part of the greater leadership of alumni still connected with University life.
Although this class is small, and many of those men who were a part of the class are elsewhere fighting, it is promising to see the spirit and enthusiasm left. Singing the alma mater and giving the Rock Chalk Jayhawk yell to close the meeting, shows that in spite of the war, graduates of K.U. will retain spirit and a satisfaction through life derived from their alma mater.
Letters to the Editor
The success of the large registration of donors for the fourth visit to Lawrence of the Mobile Unit of the Red Cross Donor Service was largely due to the enthusiastic response of the students of the University of Kansas. On the first afternoon of registration, 190 volunteers signed up in three hours time. This number was later increased to 280 of the total 647 volunteers.
The 497 pints of blood collected for the Army and Navy on this visit of the Red Cross, brings to 1607 pints the total contributions from this area to date. First time donors made up 253 of the group; 73 received silver buttons for their third donation; 20 had donated four times, two five times, one six times and one, Jo Lee Abbit, who acted as University chairman, seven times.
With the generous response of University students and Lawrence and Douglas County citizens, we feel sure that future visits of the Red Cross Mobile Unit will be successful. Ralph J. Carneutes, M.D.

Rock Chalk Talk
By HANNA HEDRICK
Jack Jarvis, Sigma Nu, had a big mission Saturday—destination, Kansas City. Shortly after noon, freshly shaved and gloves in hand, he was just about to depart from the Union fountain, when the commanding officer decided it would be an excellent time for the V-12's to have drill. Rushing off to join the parade, Jack spent from 1 to 3 p.m. drilling, and because he had forgotten his gloves at the Union, he received special duty for three extra hours after that. He arrived in the city at 8 p.m., ready to call it a day.

In somewhat filmsy apparel (white pajamas with black dots), Jerry jawed back and on forth on the top of a stepladder replacing the bulb while her colleague stood by. At that moment, two members of PT4 strolled by. Being the aggressive type, they insisted on stopping and helping the girls, who didn't want to be helped.

Distance lends enchantment: A well-known sorority girl received a short note from a distant and unknown navy instructor who inclosed an examination sheet. All over the back was scrawled her name and address at different angles. The note from the instructor read: "I thought that the enclosed evidence of devotion ought to come to you. There is more to warrant your claim to the paper than mine. I merely gave the assignment." The doodler was a student here last year, whom she hasn't heard from or seen for many a month.

Winter Fury Returns, Snow Is Picturesque
Winter weather returned to the campus today with a fury.
A wet snow of nearly three inches clung to trees and for the second time made the scenery picturesque. Melting snow at noon made sidewalks and streets slippery, and freezing temperatures late today made pavements still more icy.
SAVING
Intermittent snow was expected to attain blizzard like proportions in some parts of the state, and tomorrow it is expected to be much colder although the skies will be clearing. Above season temperatures have prevailed for more than a month.

SHERBON TO GET--in Health and in Illness," 1937, both published by McGraw-Hill, have received national and international acclaim. "The Child" particularly has been regarded as epoch making in the literature of child development. Graduate of Nurses' Training
Graduate of Nurses' Training
Dr. Sherbon, Iowa born, Florence Brown received her doctor of philosophy degree from Iowa University in 1892. After a year's teaching in Des Moines High School, she entered the Iowa State hospital at Independence for nurses' training. Following her graduation in 1895, she became superintendent of nurses at the hospital, a post she held until 1899. During the following year, until 1900, she was superintendent of the Iowa University hospital.
She returned then to University life, and received a doctor of medicine and a master of arts degree in 1904. In 1904, she married a classmate, Dr. John Sherbon, with whom she became an owner of the Victoria sanitarium, Colfax, Iowa. They resided here until 1916. In 1916, Dr Sherbon began field research work for the Federal Children's bureau, the survey including Indiana and Wisconsin, and completed this work in 1917. In the summer of 1917, she came to Kansas to substitute for the chief of the division of Child Health of the Kansas Board of Health.
In the fall of 1917, she was made director of the department of physical education for women at the University of Kansas. During the next two years, she was responsible for the establishment of the home nursing and child care courses in the curriculum here. From 1919 to 1920 Dr. Sherbion served as chief of the division of Child Hygiene of the Kansas State Board of Health, but returned to the University in 1921 to teach the courses she had produced.
Author of Child Welfare Books
Her sister, Miss Maude Brown, state supervisor of health education for Montana, has been visiting her since last fall.
Dr. Sherbon has written widely, particularly in the field of child welfare, a field which she pioneered, and in which she has become a recognized national authority.
Dr. Sheron has twin daughters,

Clapper Loses Life Witnessing Vital Fight Over Marshall Islands
Pearl Harbor, (INS) — Raymond Clapper. American newspaperman killed in a plane crash over the Marshall islands, lost his life in an attempt to witness a showdown fight with the Nipponese navy and to compare the European and Pacific wars at first hand.
So Frank E. Mason, special assistant to the secretary of the navy, reported yesterday as he arrived at Pearl Harbor with the columnist's personal effects.
Mason revealed that Clapper, who was killed in a collision between two American planes over eniwetok Atoll, was assigned to the flagship carrier in the task force and making the first strike on Kwaialieh atoll.
For two days the planes bombed the enemy positions without encountering any resistance worthy of the name and finally Clapper requested permission of a torpedo squadron commander to accompany him on the last day's flight over Eniwitok, from which the Japanese had not fired for two days.
Clapper took off expecting a routine flight, Mason reported. The plane completed its bombing run and joined other craft in lining up for the flight home.
"A wing man came up from behind." Mason told correspondents, "and the planes collided so suddenly that it was assumed the crash killed everyone aboard instantaneously. Both planes plummeted into Eniwetok Lagoon. The group commander immediately circled down over the spot to the surface of the water, but reported that he found only two oil slicks."
Memorial services were held at sea, conducted by two chaplains.
Germans Detect Planes By Using Infra-Red Rays
London, (INS)-Reports reaching Switzerland yesterday claimed that Germany has developed the use of infra-red rays for detecting Allied blind-bombing formations through cloud layers.
The Germans, according to a Berne dispatch to the London Daily Herald, have carried out successful experiments at Siemenshalske and general electric factories with search lights emitting powerful infra-red rays.

Hagerdorn Leads Ship to Upset Blanks 42-29
Holding Bock, leading scorer of the league, to 2 points, while scoring 13 himself, Hagerdorn, tall guard of the Ship's Company, led his team to a 42-29 upset of the Blanks in Lawrence basketball play last night. Ensign Ware, scoreless in the first half, found the basket for 11 points in the second half to add to the victory margin.
However, the Blanks, in their second game of the evening against the OW Techs, revenged themselves by building up a top-heavy 73-24 core. Bock's 33 points placed himack into the lead of league scorers, while Smith and Nelson scored up and 15 points respectively.
With the league play now starting on the second half of the schedule, the V-12's remain in front with a perfect record while the Blanks and the Irish Rascals follow in that order.

Doctor Gives Diploma To Son by Ambulance
An ambulance rushed Dr. Clarence B. Francisco, professor of clinical surgery in the University of Kansas School of Medicine, from his home in Kansas City to graduation exercises in Fraser hall, Jan. 31, so that he could present one medical diploma—to his son, Dr. David Francisco. The elder Francisco has been seriously ill since a major operation in November.
His son, Dr. David, was one of the class of 82 seniors who was graduated from the School of Medicine, after he had received his medical degree from his father, Dr. David as given the oath of office by Lt. M. W. Stockes, and presented to Lt. H. Buhl, of the Naval Training School, to be commissioned as an active assistant surgeon with the rank of lieutenant (jg) in the navy.
He left today for San Francisco where he will interne at the Treasure Island Naval hospital.

From the Sidelines
By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
In the transfer of Lt. (j.g.) Joe Zeller, former Indiana University, Green Bay Packer, and Chicago Bear football star who has been a member of the navy's physical training staff at Marquette University for almost two years, to the University we can now boast one of the top football players of the country who should be able to give Coaches Henry Shenk and Elmer Schaake no little assistance in teaching Kansas' linemen the "tricks of the trade." Last fall, in addition to his navy duties at Marquette, Zeller assisted Coach Tom E. Stidham with the Marquette football team.
Played With Bears Six Years
Zeller, whose home is in East Chicago, Ind., captained both football and basketball at Indiana U., graduating in 1932. He played with the Green Bay Packers in 1932 and then with the Chicago Bears the next six years, 1933 to 1938. He played with and coached the Newark Bears, 1939-41, and in addition did some high school coaching while at the New Jersey city. Should he be called upon by the Kansas grid staff and find time in addition to his directing of physical training in the MM and EM schools, Zeller might go a long way in helping get Kansas' line play out of the "ruit" it has been in these past several years.
MU and Iowa State Reappoint Coaches
Down at Missouri Chauney G. Simpson will continue for another year acting head football coach. Don Faurot, former head coach, now on active duty at Monmouth College, Ill., after a successful season at Iowa naval pre-flight, had his leave of absence extended for another year. A. M. (Mike) Michalske, head football coach at Iowa State College on a part-time basis for the past one and one-half seasons, has been named head football coach on a full-time basis at the Ames school. Michalske is a former Penn State and Green Bay Packer star.

Cyclones, Olathe, Leavenworth Win With Brookfield, leading Big Six scorer, throwing in 21 points last night, the Iowa - State Cyclones
drubbed the Drake University Bulldogs, 62 to 34. At Olathe the naval air station Clippers downed Washburn college, 54 to 37, for their eighteenth straight victory against a lone defeat, suffered to Ft. Leavenworth in the season's opener. Meanwhile, Ft. Leavenworth, whom the Jayhawks will meet there Feb. 15, slashed out a 51 to 33 victory over the Maryville Missouri Teachers. Tilberg, high scoring Flyer forward, scored 22 points.
Delt's Phi's Win Close Games
The Phi Delt's won out in a photo finish, 22 to 21, in their battle for first place in the Intramural "B" League with the Sig Alph's last night. Both teams entered the game undefeated. Despite the loss SAE still has a good chance of winding up in the play-offs. Walton, who scored seven points for the losers, was high man for the game, and Phi Delt's Huebert and Scott paced the attack for the victors, scoring six and five points respectively.
The other contest last night was also a close, defensive battle. But rather than being between two undefeated teams, it was just the opposite—a battle of the beaten, the Teke's and the Delt's. Neither team had been able to cop a victory in "A" League play until DTD finally emerged victorious over TKE, 22 to 20, in their cellar battle. Spikes was high for the Teke's with 12 points, and Kongs was the main scoring threat of the Delt's, scoring eight points.
Taft Proposes Inflation Curb
Washington, (INS)—Senator Robert A. Taft (Rep., Ohio) in a senate speech today branded the administration's "hold the line" stabilization policy as "unsound and impossible." Taking the floor during debate over anti-subsidies legislation, Taft proposed a five-point program to curb inflation, including higher taxes.

Big Crowd Expected For KU-OU Game
Promotion Due Invasion Leaders
Norman, Okla. — Reservations for the 52nd Kansas- Oklahoma basketball battle here Saturday night are going at a smart clip, reports Call Cross, Sooner business manager of athletics. Oklahoma's first sizable wartime basketball crowd of the 1944 season is expected for this second clash of the season between Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen's fighting Jayhawkers and Coach Bruce Drake's Sooners. In an earlier clash at Lawrence, Kan., Oklahoma won by a point, 24-23.
The year's record Norman attendance, approximately 2,500 fans, saw the youthful Sooners lose to Iowa State by two points here last Saturday night, Oklahoma's second point defeat in succession on her home floor.
Cross imputes this phenomena to the fact Doctor Allen, year in and year out, develops powerful Kansas teams and that the Kansas-Okla-homa basketball tradition, started in 1920, has always been productive of thrilling basketball.
But regardless of the standings of the teams, the Kansas - basketball game always outdraws the Iowa State game at Norman, Cross says. Even a Big Six championship tilt between Iowa State and Oklahoma clubs all-victorious in league play couldn't change this precedent.
Washington, (INS)—The two top American commanders in the invasion of the Marshall islands, Vice-Admiral Raymond A. Spruance and Rear Admiral Richmond K. Turner, were designated today for promotion in recognition of the smashing victory.

Admission to the dance is a twenty-five cent war stamp and each purchaser will get a chance on the War Bond to be given away at the dance.
Reds Push Finns; Yanks Take Huon
(International News Service)
The Russian air force increased the scope of its own offensive, hammering the Finnish port of Kotka, east of Helsinki, during the night with 150 planes. This large-scale air attack took place while Soviet ground troops proceeded with the task of amnihilating 150 thousand Germans trapped in the Dneiper bend. Encircled Nazi forces in the Shpola sector were split in two wholly separated segments against which seven district Russian columns moved remorselessly. Other Russian troops outflanked the iron ore center Krivoi-Rog, gravely endangering that pivotal enemy position.
In the Southwest Pacific a major new victory was added to Gen. Douglas MacArthur's triumphs by successful completion of a bitter campaign against the Japanese on Huon penisula of New Guinea in which 14 thousand enemy troops were slain and the path cleared for a sweeping new offensive to the east and west.

Opera Has Lively Music Action, Bright Costumes
An audience of approximately 2500 persons attended Johann Strauss' light opera, "The Bat" (Die Fledermaus) given in English by the Philadelphia Opera company last night in Hoch auditorium.
Miss Irene Peabody, mezzo soprano, will give a voice recital Monday evening in Fraser theater in the next of the series of faculty recitals.
Irene Peabody To Give Recital
Miss Peabody, associate professor of voice in the School of Fine Arts. is a graduate of the University, having received her bachelor of music degree in 1923. Afterward she did advanced coaching at various times under such well-known singers and voice teachers as Charles W. Clark, Harriet Van Enden, Isaac Van Grove, Herman Devries, and Kurt Schnidler. She has been a member of the Fine Arts faculty since 1924 and has appeared in concert each year at the University and in surrounding cities and towns. For the past several years, Miss Peabody has been director of the University Women's Glee Club. She is also director as well of the choir of the First Presbyterian church of Lawrence.
Miss Peabody will offer a choice selection of songs in Italian, German, French, and English. Included in the final English group will be songs from such American composers as Emerson Whithorne, Walter Kramer, and Edward Horsman. The program will be open to the public without admission charge.

The jail scene in the third act did not come up to the spirited second act with its "Laughing Song," and the "Czardas," and the rhythmic waltz of the "Champagne Song" in the finale.
"Postwar Air Transportation" will be the subject of discussion on the University of Kansas Roundtable over KFKU tonight at 9:30. The speakers will be Henry S. Allwell, assistant professor of aeronautical engineering; Robert McCloy, assistant professor aeronautical engineering; and Charles Shields, Coordinator, CAA.

Helena Bliss as Rosalinda sang her part throughout the performance dramatically and with good stage presence. As the masked countess in the second act, she performed as the beautiful belle of the ball and sang the "Gypsy Song." As Adele, the maid, Jayne Cozzens lent a humorous vivacious touch to the story, as a soubrette and coloratura.

Germans Make Last Try to Win Victory in Italy
(International News Service)
Adolf Hitler's last-ditch effort to ring a smashing victory out of the savage fighting south of Rome clashed head-on with unbroken and undiminished Allied resistance at the Anzio-Mettuno beachhead today. Hitler's high command claimed that the railroad station at Aprilla had been recaptured by German forces and further alleged that Allied troops of the beachhead area are being battered mercilessly by long - range artillery. Gen. Sir Henry - Maitland - Wilson's comunique conceded that the enemy offensive had been launched on a grand scale with units of six veteran divisions participating.
There was nothing, however, to substantiate Nazi claims that the Allied line has "collapsed" or that the Germans are engaged in "moping-up operations." While the German offensive is a general one, apparently launched from several directions against the beachhead, Gen. Maitland - Wilson's announcement said that the enemy was merely "probing the Allied front line" searching for a weak spot if one exists. Further progress was reported for Allied forces in Cassino where savage house-to-house fighting continued. The Germans claimed that Allied forces had been "thrown out of the ruined city," but this was in direct contradiction to an official Allied announcement which told of strong Allied tank units pacing bayonet-wielding Americans and Britains through the rubble-strewed streets.
One encouraging factor in the situation was the apparent inability of the Germans to strengthen their air arm in the Rome area. Gen. Maitland-Wilson's communique disclosed that throughout yesterday when Allied planes carried out 850 sorties the Germans made only 30 missions.
The aerial campaign of attrition went forward again with a gigantic new attack on Frankfort, and Liberators smashed German installations in the Pal De Calis area of the French invasion coast.
Temperature Drops To4 Above Zero
The Kansas Public Service Co. thermometer reached its lowest of 4 degrees above zero at 10 a.m., but there were even lower recordings in other parts of the city.
Temperatures hovering near the zero mark this morning quickened the pace of pedestrians on the campus and brought out the heaviest wraps.
A strong wind last night added to the suffering as the mercury dropped steadily. *
Influenza Causes Absences From Registrar's Office
Several employees of the registrar's office are ill with influenza. Those absent from their work because of illness are Miss Mae Rouble, assistant registrar; Miss Winifred Feltner, transcript clerk; and Miss Marcia Beatty, assistant recorder.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
We Thank Lincoln For a United Front
Tomorrow is Abraham Lincoln's birthday. The memory of this great man recalls another war—one in which we fought each other instead of fighting united against a common enemy. Lincoln became an honored hero of the United States because of his leadership in spite of overwhelming barriers.
In Lincoln's fight to preserve a united country, he was criticized by many newspapers and individuals and when he became president there was no national rejoicing. He was not a great leader to many of his contemporaries and they said in a loud voice and often that he was not.
But Lincoln's leadership has lasted and has influenced the nation after his death. Today we are fighting for many of his ideals and without the barriers he encountered. We are fighting to free men from bondage—in the world of today this bondage is heavier and more evil than it was then. We are fighting to preserve our country; so was Lincoln. And we are fighting for a free life; so was Lincoln.
Today the country is united and the people are working together to defeat a common enemy. Lincoln did not have a united people. This is the most important factor in winning any war—if a people will stand together, the battle is half won.
Lincoln united the people of this nation, an accomplishment for which we must ever be thankful. Today, when forces of tyranny and destruction must be wiped out, how grateful we are that our country as a whole is fighting these forces. Working together, fighting together, sharing together the sorrows of war, our people will win together and become a better nation for the cooperative experience.

Warden Resigns Over Execution
9:00 - 12:00
Couple 75c
Topeka, (INS)—Governor Andrew Schoeppel's refusal to grant clemency to Fred. L. Brady, convicted murderer sentenced to hang, resulted Wednesday in the resignation of Warden M. F. Amrine of the state penitentiary.
"I am opposed to capital punishment and I do not wish to be a participant when the state turns to the barbarous rite of killing." Amrine said.
Brady's execution is scheduled for April 15 at the Leavenworth Penitentiary. It will be the first state hanging since 1870. The state's capital punishment law was enacted by the legislature in 1937". Only one death sentence has been before a governor since then and that was commuted to life imprisonment by Gov. Walter A. Huxman, (who signed the capital punishment bill).
Governor Schoeppel, in accepting Amrine's resignation said:
Robert H. Hudspeth of Riley county was appointed Amrine's successor and will assume office to-dav.
"It is not a question of whether the governor or any officer charged in law with the execution of the sentence, believes in capital punishment. It is the duty of officers to enforce the law as applied and interpreted by the courts."
The death sentence for Ernest Hoefgen, imposed Monday at Marion, for the murder of Bruce Smol, Kansas State college student, has not been appealed as yet.
Two other clemency cases are now before the governor — Clarke B. Knox, Negro, convicted of murdering a Kansas City, Kans., policeman and Walter Severn, convicted for the murder of his niece, 8-year-old Inez Burling.

OPERA HAS----
(continued from page one) clown among the players. Michael French furnished broad comedy as the handsome, pleasure-loving jail warden. Joseph Laderoute, as Gabriel Eisenstein, was a convincing husband who revealed in the good time at the Orlofsky party and unwittingly flirted with his own wife. Val Patacchia played the part of Dr. Blint, the unintelligent, impractical lawyer.
Music Draws Anslause
The music, conducted by Ezra Rachlin, was played at a quick tempo throughout the performance. The "You and You" walt drew particular applause from the audience.
In the grand finale, the favorite strains of the opera and a part of the "Blue Danube" were played. The stage settings were not in keeping with the atmosphere of old Vienna, but they fitted in with the amusing plot of the story.
This performance was the third in the series of University Concerts. The next one in the series will be the Trapp Family Singers, March 13.

Allen Heightens Game Line-up For O.U. Match
Again shifting his starting lineup for the "seventy-dozenth" time this season, Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen hopes he has in his new and more altitudinal combination a match for Bruce Drake's Oklahoma Sooners in tomorrow night's 52nd Kansas-Oklahoma clash at Norman which is already assured a sell-out crowd.
In his revamping process Allen has sent big 6-4 Abe Turner, former Washington Stater, into the starting position in place of the veteran George Dick, who had started the last two games. A good rebounder and basket shooter, Turner had tackled aggressiveness for the most art of the season until of late, when, disgusted with his plight, the anky cager suddenly aroused the old fight. Turner, along with the dependable rebounder, Don Barrington, should be able to take their share off the boards, although getting plenty of competition from Sooner's Ramsey and Vaughan, Ramsey, the tall Oregonian, captured 17 offensive and defensive rounds against Iowa State, despite the Cyclone's Brookfield.
oers Given Slight Edge
The Sooners are given from four to eight points edge by most analysts. The home team is usually given two to four points to start with, especially in the Big Six which in the past has been strictly a homer" league. However, the league's historic road hoodoos has taken an awful walloping this season for, of the 17 games won to date in conference play, eight have been carried off by the visiting aggregation which is believed to be unprecedented in Big Six basketball annals
More than any other game, the Jayhawks are priming for this one. Ever since their 24 to 23 defeat at the hands of the Sooners here Jan. 21, after losing the game only on account of their accuracy at the free throw line, the Jayhawks have thought nothing but revenge. Cage War Between Coaches, Too
Seniors to Pay Dues In Business Office
Beginning today and extending until Feb.25, the business office will receive senior dues, Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the alumni association, has announced.
Seniors who haven't ordered their invitations for graduation exercises must have their orders in before 5 p.m. today if they wish to receive them, Mr. Ellsworth added.
Cage War Between the teams
Not only will this red hot cage war be waged between the two teams, but also between the two coaches. Only one coach in all Allen's 40 years of coaching has stood up to him in games won and lost, and that man is Bruce Drake. Their life-time slate now stands in a dead-lock with each having won seven victories. Tomorrow night's game will propel one or the other ahead.
Predicting dire fate from the favored Sooners with their more experienced ball club. Allen spoke with a gleam in his eye. He knew well that his boys would rather win this one than all the rest and knew that they were going to give their all in accomplishing the task.
Turner's Height Will Help
And the Jayhawk's "all" can be a mighty lot since in holding the Sooner's to 24 points here it was the greatest defensive team the Okla-homans' had met this season. Turner's height and rebound ability should make the Crimson and Blue's defensive stand all the more impregnable.
The Kansas team will leave by train at 9 tonight. Making the trip are Barrington, Lindquist, Dick, Sherwood, Moffett, McSpadden, Goehring, Malott, Turner, and Frank.

V-12's, Rascals Beat S.O.W. Opponents To Lead City League
The V-12's continued their winning ways in downing the S.O.W. Ads. 46-18, and the Irish Rascals won over the S.O.W. Techs. 56-26 to move into a tie for second place with the Blanks in Lawrence league basketball last night.
Leonard Lutz, quiet forward from Ohio, led the V-12 attack with 10 points, followed by Pyle with 8. Hoke captured the S.O.W. scoring honors with 10 points. Score at the half was 20-8, V-12.
Owens, with 17 points, and Buck, with 12, led the Irish Rascals in their win over the S.O.W. Techs, which gives the Rascals a record of five wins against two defeats, the same as that held by the Blanks. The Rascals were ahead at the half, 22-15.
Wreckage of Plane Found in Mississippi
Memphis, Tenn., (INS) — The wreckage of an American Airlines plane missing since early morning has been found in the Mississippi near Cow island approximately 15 miles south of Memphis, U. S. coast guard officers announced this afternoon. There were 24 persons aboard the ship but no bodies have been recovered.
Coast guard officers said they did not know whether the bodies were still in the plane. The plane is in about 30 feet of water about 24 feet off the island shore.
The plane crashed into the water amid a burst of flame just a few yards from a house boat of some coastguardsmen.
U.S. Demands Improvement
Washington, (INS) — Acting Secretary of State, Edward R. Stettinius Jr., announced today the United States government has demanded that Japan "take immediate steps" to improve the treatment accorded American nationals held in Japanese-controlled territory.
'Victory Was Cheap In Kwajalein Atoll
(International News Service)
Robert Patterson, acting Secretary of War, reported that the American occupation of Kwajalein atoll now is complete, and he described the offensive as a "swift and inexpensive victory." He estimated that perhaps 60 per cent of the more than 8,000 Japanese who were killed on Kwajalein died during the air and naval bombardment that preceded the landing.
Furious fighting raged in Russia where one of the bloodiest armored engagements of the war flared on the middle Dneiper front as Nazi tank units attempted to rescue encircled German forces.
Fierce tank battles raged on a 20 mile front, and dozens of enemy thrusts were repulsed by Soviet artillery fire.
Taggart Outstanding In Military Activity
Joseph H. Taggart, formerly Professor of Finance in the School of Business at K.U. and now on leave to serve with the Army Air Forces, apparently has been achieving outstanding success in connection with his military duties.
Major Taggart was one of thirteen speakers on a program presented recently by the Army and Navy before the National Defense Committee of the American Legion. The other speakers included Robert P. Patterson, Under Secretary of War, Ralph A. Bard, Assistant Secretary of the Navy, Lieutenant General Brehon Somervell, Rear Admiral L. D. McCormick, Rear Admiral C. M. Cooke, Jr., Rear Admiral Randall Jacobs, and Brigadier General G. C. Thomas of the Marine Corps. Major Taggart had as his subject the "Strategic Bombing of Germany."

M.U. Will Provide Journalism Teachers
Jefferson City, Mo.—The University of Missouri School of Journalism will supply instructors for the Lincoln University department of journalism under an agreement made by the Missouri state board of education yesterday.
When the college for colored students was unable to provide instruction in journalism after Feb. 1, a colored student asked admission to the Missouri school, which has not been admitting colored students. The arrangements to supply instructors who will be under the direction of the Lincoln officials was then made

A DEVOTED COUPLE—AN INSPIRED COLLABORATION
Pierre and Marie Curie, the celebrated couple who won the Nobel prize and revolutionized modern science with their discovery of radium, actually lived a great and tender romance. In Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's filmization of their life together, Greer Garson and Walter Pidgeon are reunited for the third time as the loving pair.

They spent four years working daily in all kinds of weather in a leaky shed seeking to isolate the precious radium. Only Marie's stubborn determination kept them going.

No Rest For Cupid Despite War
Despite the new blanket of snow that ushered in St. Valentine's Day, the anniversary of that patron of lovers, traditionally marks the beginning of Spring.
February 14, 1944, witnesses a new kind of St. Valentine's Day. Gone, for the present, but not forgotten, are the days when coeds rushed to the door to see who would receive the tissue-wrapped florist bouquet, the box of chocolates, or the scented box which strongly suggested perfume.
But the spirit of this much-degenerated festival day is as strong as ever, although expressed in a different manner. While the men are fighting to make a safe place for democracy, college women are fighting in their own way. They work as nurse's aides, or roll bandages for the Red Cross, buy war bonds with money once used for luxuries, (now unheard of) like nylon hose, and give to the blood bank, to mention a few of the numerous war-time activities.
Timeworn verses about roses being red and violets being blue, decorated with cupids fluttering above, for those who wish to express their ardor, along with jocular anonymous letters, are not entirely forgotten this year. Today, however, many valentines are V-mail letters to and from remote corners of the earth.
Sherbon Retires After 25 Years
Dr. Florence B. Sherbon retired as professor of child care in the home economics department Friday upon reaching her 75th birthday. She had been connected with the department for nearly 25 years.
A selection of French, Italian, German, and English songs will be sung tonight by Miss Irene Peabody, mezzo-soprano, in her faculty recital at 8 p.m. in Fraser theater.
In her first group, Miss Peabody will sing Bach's "Bist Du Bei Mir," "My Heart Ever Faithful, Sing Praises," and "Ah! Mio Cor," an aria from "Alcina," by Handel.
The dinner, which had been planned in honor of her retirement, could not be given as Dr. Sherbon has been ill for the past several weeks. Instead, a memorial scrapbook containing testimonials from many of her associates was given to her by the University.
Peabody Announces Concert Program
In the final English group will be (continued to page two)
Two of Schubert's songs, "Lieb Der Mignon" and "Gretchen Am Spinnrade" are in the second group. Miss Peabody will also sing "Marien-wurmehorn," from "Des Knaben Wunderhorn," by Schumann, and the "Scene of Andromache," from "Achilleus" (Bruch).
In the third group of songs will be "Novembre" (Tremisot), "Tambourin," an 18th century melody, and "Recitative and Air of Lia," (Debussy).
Malott OKays Exam Schedules For Civilian and V-12 Students; Will Hold Convocation as Planned
The examination schedule, adopted last week by the University Senate but held until Chancellor Deane Malott's return this morning from the west coast, was approved by him. Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, announced today.
The schedule provides for separate programs for the civilian and V-12 classes. The examinations are of one hour duration.
Shryock Wins Title of Queen At Bond Dance
Marjorie Shryock, College Freshman from Kansas City and member of Alpha Delta Pi sorority, was voted queen of the CVC and Union Activities War Stamp and Bond dance Saturday night with 58,500 votes, a considerable portion of the votes from the $13,220 obtained. The舞 in the new Military Science building climaxed the CVC War Stamp and Bond drive and brought the figure of total contributions for the drive up to $19,090, nearly four times the drive goal.
Runners-up for queen were Dorothy Warren, College freshman from Cedar Billings, Mont., member of Pi Beta Phi sorority, and Jane Atwood, Gamma Phi Beta and College freshman from Gardner. Kingley Directed Army Band
About 400 persons danced to the music of an army band under the direction of Walter Kingsley, ASTP from Larchmont, N.Y. R. J. Atkinson, Engineering junior, acted as master of ceremonies and introduced the queen at 11 p.m. Miss Shryock drew for the lucky bond, the winner of whom was Samuel DiSaverio, ASTP from Philadelphia, Pa.

'Must Improve Human Standards,' Says Dr. Shirkey in Address Today
Telling his student listeners that they will never be able to build a better world without until they build a better world within. Dr. Albert P. Shirkey, pastor of the Travis Park Methodist church of San Antonio, Texas, began the observance of Religious Emphasis Week on the campus with his convocation at 9:45 this morning in Hoch auditorium.
Despite the snow and the proximity of finals, nearly 1,000 students attended the convocation.
"We need to build a different kind of world," Dr. Shirky declared. "It belongs to the youth of this generation to grapple with the problems that exist, and to make of the world in our time a brotherhood where black, yellow, red, and white can stand side by side, each giving his own contribution."

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Religion Is Important In War-torn World
This week is religious emphasis week and University students will at least be exposed to the deeper meanings in life. Religion in war means different things to every one; in wartime especially, each individual has his own religion.
In war religion serves in many ways. Those in the service pray when perhaps they never have before, or their prayers have a deeper significance. Many think back on their Sunday School training when they are in some distant land — away from home and all the phases of daily life and precious memories—and this training is more valuable than ever before.
Others may feel that there is no God when such ravages of war tear the world. Innocent people are killed, religious people are killed even those who have given their lives to religion are killed. But God didn't start the war. If the example of Jesus had been followed, and He was to many the most perfect man ever on earth, there would be no war. But His teachings were not followed. Because the greed and hate and love of power in men's minds overcame love which is God personified, there is a war.
Religion cannot stop the war, it cannot prevent wars because it is not in the heart of everyone. But religion today is important because it provides a port in the storm of sorrow and disappointment, because it will prevent more hate and revenge after the war, and because it will be necessary in the peace to guide wartime nations.
Students here at the University, both civilian and those in uniform, feel the need of religion. At this period in life, uncertainties crowd into the mind and many times obliterate religion of any kind. During this week, fine speakers brought to the University provide an opportunity for students to hear various ideas and obtain different slants on an ageless subject.
By listening to religious discussions this week, students will give more thought to their own individual feelings. Nothing will be lost and there is a great deal to be gained, if only the realization of the importance of religion in the world today.
The following verse was written by Clifford H. Nowlin, a former student of William Carruth. It is interesting to read this tribute at a time during the Carruth poetry contest.

Now after sixty years have gone apace.

Again I sit at my preceptor's feet
And as I read his lines I see his face
And hear his voice in accents clear
and sweet.
His dear "God Bless You" coming
Rings true as in the golden days of old.
old,
To me it seems a melody apart
As when a chime of silver bells is
tolled.
Froudly I count him as my teacher still,
His figure growing taller with the years.
A dreamer and a prophet, if you will.
A bard whose faith was master of his fears.
It was as if he walked the common sod
And seeing, spoke a parable of God
"A common blot is held no stain."

The Chi Omegas entertained their pledges with a masquerade party, and to keep in the spirit of the thing, Margaret Gurley doned long red sleepers and horns to pass as the bull moose. As official welcomer, Margaret let the pledges in the house. Hearing one last ring, she threw up the latch in a most welcoming manner only to find two servicemen on the front stoop. All that could be seen was a red streak as "Bull Moose" ran for cover—any kind.

And then there was the case of the freshman, who, when her blind date called to find out where she wanted to go, didn't realize whom she was talking to, carried on a lengthy conversation, and almost ended it all by telling him (her tone drops almost to the level of disgust) that she has a blind date and can't go out with him. Fortunately, he was one for the more "understanding" men.
On the Union Activities committee were Eugenia Hepworth, chairman, sophomore; Anne Zimmerman, junior; Edith Marie Darby, freshman; Catherine Foster, junior; Helen Gardner, $pecial; Marilyn Maloney, sophomore; Mary Nettels, sophomore; Jane Atwood, freshman; and Dick Beach, senior.
Betty Jo O'Neal, major in the CVC, said today that the students are to be congratulated on the interest shown in the drive. She said, "They came through wonderfully and really dug down to make the drive a success." She also added that 90 percent of the entire sales at the dance were made by students themselves.

Jayhawks Hold Drake's Sooners To 4-Point Win
The Kansas Jayhawks did not get revenge in their battle with the Oklahoma Sooners Saturday night, but in holding the Drakemen to a four-point margin, 35 to 39, the Jayhawks did far better than most experts' forecasted.
In fact, with Don Barrington leading the way, the Allenmen came lose to overtaking the Sooners in the final period as they drew within three points. Barrington was high point man for the night with a rousing 18-point performance.
The first half was calm and plaid compared to the final stanza with the Sooners emerging at half time with a 15 to 9 margin after a period of little shooting and much loose guarding. Both teams exploded in the final half, throwing them in from far and near, with Pryor and Paine leading the scoring for the winners with 11 points each. Contributing to the victory were Landon with five, Ramsey with eight, Vaughan with two, and Grossman with two.
Besides Barrington, only three other Kansans could find the hoop. herwood started out with two straight splitters, but could only and the basket for one more counter ie rest of the night. Goohring drew in a basket and Lindquist accounted for nine points. The latter ad gone in at forward after Moffett, former third high scorer in the conference, had been held to nary point by the close-guarding Allie Iaine. Moffett, although refusing several good opportunities, took only two cracks at the basket.
Again, as in the 24 to 23 Oklahoma victory here in January, the Jayhawks lost the game on free throws. Kansas scored three more field goals than Oklahoma, yet the Sooner's successful conversion of 15 of 17 free throw chances brought victory. On the other hand Kansas could hit only five of 13 hots.
Tournaments Planned By Intramural Board
Plans for a table tennis doubles tournament and a deck tennis tournament were formulated at an inamural board meeting last week, liss Ruth Hoover, adviser of the board, stated.
Four-thirty and 5 o'clock will be the periods for the table tennis games, and the deck tennis games will be played at 7:30 p.m. The swimming meet is postponed indefinitely, because the water in the pool is too shallow.

From the Sidelines
By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Pittsburg's John Lance has built himself a good reputation as a basketball coach and official in these parts. But in the later department he is fast losing out. Not much was thought of it when he was given the old "raspberry" by the crowds for his "general performance" at the Oklahoma game with K.U. here and at the Iowa State-O.U. game at Norman. Incidentally, in the latter game the home crowd even gave their approval when a member of the visiting team, Price Brookfield, told the fair haired one off in no uncertain terms. The height was reached, however, Saturday night in the Kansas battle with the Sooners at Norman. Even though it seems that Kansas has been dissatisfied with the officiating in many of their games this season (mainly because Lance was often the arbitrator), in this game Dr. F. C. Allen, who had always managed to hold himself in other contests, openly asserted himself that the officifying was so downright lousy. And the Oklahoma crowd was hardly of a different opinion and Lance's questionable decisions even when against the Kansas team were not lacking for booing by the Sooner crowd. To illustrate our point: In the closing minutes when Kansas was drawing near the Oklahomaans, Allie Paine went high into the air to shoot, but tied up, came to the floor (naturally steps); with both teams momentarily stopping play, Paire then threw the ball into the basket with Lance allowing it to count. This fielder definitely broke the Jayhawks back Just to mention a few other incidents a foul was called on Barrington who coming down with a rebound was rammed into by a Sooner Incidentally, Barrington, whom Lance had hoped to get down at Pittsburg, had three fouls called on him in the first seven minutes of play. Goehring, after Referee Hogue had called a tie ball, was charged with a foul when Lance came rushing up from the other end of the court, (definitely not his territory) All this is not to mention the technical foul called against the Kansas bench. We could go ahead and list a few other incidents on Mr. Lance who called 15 of Kansas' 16 fouls, but we won't.
Well. Well
Despite everything else we had still recognized the Hutchinson NAS basketeers a mightly classy outfit. Saturday night they came through and edged out the Oklahoma Aggies 27 to 26, despite a half time deficit of 13 to 20. Pike Gawthrop, former naval instructor here, led Hutchinson with 14 points. "Foothills" Kurland was held to 14 points.

Coeds Get Thrill of Army In WAC Day Exercises
Drilling, military customs, and courtesies, movies, and mental tests were the order of the day when approximately fifty coeds experienced a typical day in the life of a WAC, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday.
Lt. Betty Veach of the Topeka army recruiting office, working in cooperation with Lt. Col. W. L. McMorris, commander of the University army units, his staff, Miss Elizabeth Megiuar, adviser of women, and Miss Marie Miller, assistant adviser of women, planned the day to give girls interested in the WAC's a crossroads view of that life. In the day's program, Lt. Veach was assisted by two other officers, and three enlisted women.
Lt. Col. McMorris started the day off by making a short speech to the women, after which Army mental tests were given in Snow hall. If these tests are still being used when the girls who took them join the WAC's, they will not have to take them again, if they passed this time.
Movies Take Place of First Drill
Movies were shown on infantry drill to take the place of the regular morning drill which had to be cancelled due to bad weather. Another movie "Divide and Conquer" concerning the first stages of the European war from 1939 to 1940 showed the fall of France, Belgium, Holland, Poland, Denmark, and Norway. These movies which have never been released to the public, were made in Hollywood by the signal corps, and are in a series containing the complete story of Hitler's rise from 1932 up to the present day.
After the movies, the women marched to Lindley hall, where they had "mess," a regular WAC meal of baked ham, sweet potatoes, creamed peas with celery, combination salad, milk, bread and butter, and raspberries. During the lunch

the ASTP's came into the "meal hall" for their lunch. Drill At MS Building Later
Marching back in formation to the Military Science building, they were divided into three squads and one platoon. The three enlisted women were drilled and then the three commissioned officers, after the drilling of the women themselves. The Marine drill was demonstrated, and pictures were taken. A lecture on military customs and courtesies was given by Lt. Veach with suggestions and contributions from all the WAC's present. Saluting, officers' social duties upon arriving at a new camp, and the correct time and place to salute the flag were some of the things discussed.
Marching in formation to the Union building, the girls were served cokes and cookies in an informal party from 4 to 6 p.m.
Following this, there was another in the series of movies on the "Battle of Britain" demonstrating the German plan for a pincer movement to annihilate Britain. At the end of the battle for Britain came the battle for London.

The first wave of bombers dismantled the robin's-egg-blue monastery steppe, which for so many centuries has looked down upon Campagna. Then other four-motored bombers roared over, and the monastery was engulfed in smoke. Its historic white walls took on a sickly yellow color characteristic of bombed buildings. With Monte Cassino reduced to ruins for the third time in its history, the way was cleared for more rapid advances along the road to Rome.

Invasion Is Near. Latest Bombing Minelaying Show
(International News Service)
Two major developments on farflung battle fronts indicated that Invasion Day is drawing near. Flying fortresses attacked the monastery of Monte Cassino south of Rome to eliminate it as a German garrison, artillery nest, and observation post. The British admiralty announced that 200 thousand square miles of water embracing nearly the whole of the Bay of Biscay and north to St. George's Channel, which separates Wales and Ireland, had been rendered dangerous to shipping, presumably by mines laid from air and sea. These were vastly different incidents, but both pointed to the same thing: that anything the Nazis have done to block an Allied advance to the heart of Hitlerism will be undone as speedily, remorselessly, and methodically as possible.
From the embrauses of the ancient monastery German guns have shot at Allied lines. Nazi telescopes and field glasses have looked down into American and British trenches guiding enemy artillery fire.
Before opening up on the abby the fifth army dropped leaflets urg
Clearing Weather Aids Allies
German jabs against Allied positions in the beachhead section were repulsed. The Allies were aided immeasurably by clearing weather which enabled full-scale resumption of smashing aerial assaults which reached the record figure of 1,500 separate sorties. A broadest by Allied controlled Bari radio said the Allies have regained all ground lost since Feb. 3, and now are consolidating positions.
Cables from London frankly described the Bay of Biseay operation as a prelude to invasion. Friend and foe alike were warned that these waters extending 360 miles into the Atlantic from Scilly isles in the English channel and then south 400 miles were mined. The measure foreshadowed intensified Allied naval sweeps designed to wreck German sea communications in this vital zone entirely and tie up all Nazi naval transports to the Reich by way of French waters.
Other Allied bombers lashed out to the northern area of the continent. Four-motored bombers of the eighth army air force again struck the Pas de Calais area of France while lighter craft attacked wide-spread German coastal defenses throughout the daylight hours.

Eleanor Z. Treks Trail Wrong Way
Mrs. Eleanor L. Zileh, who will be guest at the annual dinner of the journalism department in March, has been temporarily delayed in her journey to the United States by a stop-over in the Canary islands. The word came this noon by dispatch from the South African News Service.
Mrs. Zilch was captured by a tribe of head hunters on her way from the interior of Africa to the coast. However, when the ruling chiefian returned from a Willikie rally in the Congo, she was rejected.
According to the dispatch, Mrs. Zilch, wife of the noted journalist, Elmer A. Zilch, could obtain no passage, except on a freight boat going to South America. She was quartered with an ourangoutang.
Eleanor told representatives of the press in the Canaries that she enjoyed the crüise as far as it went. She said she considered it "unfortunate" that the boat was sunk by a submarine but that she found the 10-mile swim to the islands "very invigorating."
Mrs. Zilch says she has been doing some lecturing on birth control, the work that took her to Africa, in the Canary islands but her spirit is no longer with the cause, and she is anxious to return to the United States and her husband's work, journalism and distilling.

161 Seniors to Receive Degrees In Graduation Exercises Feb.27 Before Taking Final Examinations
To Interview Seniors About Commissions
Three curtain calls for Miss Irene Peabody, mezzo-soprano, expressed the appreciation of the audience for the fifth faculty recital last night in Fraser theater.
A traveling board from the Office of Naval Officers Procurement in Kansas City will be on the campus tomorrow to interview and process men who are interested in commissions for special duties in the navy. J. O. Jones, acting dean of the school of engineering announced today.
Miss Peabody sang "Ah! Mio Cor" (Handel) with deep feeling and a sensitive nobility. The sorrowful song of Andromache with its deep conflict and anguish was from the scene of Andromache from "Achilleus" (Bruch).
The board, which is comprised of two line officers and one medical officer, wishes to contact men who will be graduated in March from the School of Engineering, and majors in physics and mathematics. They will arrive at 10 a.m. and will remain all day in the office of the dean of engineering, Dr. Jones said.
Peabody Liked In Voice Recital
The melodious 'If You Pass Through My Garden" (Richard Kountz) was one of the main high lights of the program. Miss Peabody gave a gay interpretation to the light song of the lady bug, Marienwurmchen" (from "Des Knaben Wunderhorn") by Schumann. Her offering of "Gretchen Am Spinnrade" (Schubert) received the greatest applause from the audience.
The mezzo-soprano sang the rem. iniscent, tearful "Novembre" (Tremisot). Miss Peabody followed this number with the dainty, light-hearted 18th century melody, 'Tambourin.'
In her last group Miss Peabody sang the English songs by American composers. "Shy One" (Emerson Whithorne), "The Last Hour" (Walter Kramer), and "Gifts" (Alec Templeton) were expressively sung. She closed the program with the effective "The Bird of the Wilderness." (Edward Horsman).
Hoopes Will Be Speaker For Oklahoma City Clubs
Miss Allie Merle Conger was Miss Peabody's piano accompanist.
Miss Helen Rhoda Hoopes of the department of English will on Thursday leave for Oklahoma City, Okla., where she will speak at a dinner given at the Oklahoma City Club by a state educational sorority that evening.
At a luncheon given by the Oklahoma State Council of English Teachers, Miss Hoopes will speak on "People in Poetry." She will include some of her own character sketches in verse in her programs.

Combustible McVey: When things get too dull around the Phi Gam house, the boys douce each other with inflammable cleaning fluid and practice throwing lighted matches. Up until "Smiley" McVey got into the game, nothing happened. Then one of the brothers soaked the McVey bathrobe. On the first match to come his way, "Smiley" obediently went up in flames. Beating, water, and several fire extinguishers put out the flames in time—but, as one of the boys remarked, "for a while it certainly looked as though we were staging a cremation."

These interesting sidelines to dating: Bobbie Sue McCluggage's new flannel pajamas are striped and loud, and Mrs. McCluggage got a little mixed up when she made them and so the stripes in the top go up and down and the stripes in the legs go around. Bobbie Sue had them on one night when she ambled down to the kitchen—absentmindedly going through the Gamma Phi library where Metz Wright, Will Allen and Mark Costello were waiting for dates. The boys still haven't gotten over it.

Realism in wolffing: Saturday night around 12:30 two ASTP's, apparently fresh from one of the city's more exhilerating establishments, stood outside an organized women's house and yelled for their girl friends. Someone studying upstairs yelled back that the two were out of town.
Shortly after this conversation, two G.I. hats moved slowly along just above a table top in the hall on second. Rounding the table, two soldiers crawled in and out of several empty rooms, looking for their girls.
They were first spotted by a highly nervous co-ed who screamed and dived in her closet. The soldiers followed, pushing back among shoes and moth balls.
About this time, one of the more forceful souls in the house took the two by their collars, and told them in no uncertain terms to leave. Whereupon the two turned tail, crawled meekly down the steps, and out the front door.
Richard Stutz and John Cooper, freshmen in the School of Engineering and Jay Gunnels, business senior, will talk before the local American Legion at 8:30 p.m. Thursday, as members of the Victory Speakers program, according to E. C. Buchler, professor of speech and organizer of the program.
Students Will Speak To American Legion
Cooper will speak on "A Mission to Wake Island"; Stutz will tell about the German air force, and Gunnels has chosen as his topic "When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again."

Jayhawks Play Last Service Tilt At Leavenworth
The Kansas Jayhawks take on their last service foe of the season tonight when they clash with the Ft. Leavenworth Flyers on the Leavenworth High School court. The Jayhawks handed the Flyers their first loss early in the season, 31 to 27.
Two days later the Flyers uncorked a bewildering second half attack on the Olathe Clippers to set themselves up as the only ball club to mar the Clipper's undefeated season so far.
Against service foes, most of whom boast many ex-college players, the Jayhawks have been only mediocre. They defeated a not-so-strong Herington club twice, and downed both Leavenworth and Ft. Riley here in close games early in the season. However, the Allenmen twice lost to the Olathe Clippers, who now boast a 19-game winning streak. The Crimson and Blue recently lost their return game to the Fort Riley Centaurs, and lost in their rough squabble with the Hutchinson N.A.S. here in December. The latter holds a recent victory over the Oklahoma Aggies. All told, the Jayhawks have won four games against service clubs while losing three.
Lineup Is Undecided
Except for Barrington and McSpadden, Allen has not decided upon whom he will start in tonight's contest as his men have been so unpredictable. The other three will probably be Moffett, Sherwood, and Turner, although Bill Lindquist can hardly be overlooked after his fine performance against Oklahoma. Going in late in the game the former Creighton athlete zipped in nine points and played nearly faultless ball. On the other hand Big Abe Turner, who had been doing so well of late, was rather disappointing against the Sooners, and Sherwood, after pumping in two baskets in the early moments, couldn't even come close the rest of the night. It is hoped that Moffett, who hasn't been quite himself since his sickness preceding the Iowa State game, will soon find his way out of the slump that has been dogging him. After leading the Big Six in scoring after his first three contests, the Peabody freshman could only hit for a total of three points against Iowa State and Oklahoma, and was held scoreless against the latter.
Flyers Average 45 Points a Game
The Flyers, paced by Sergt. Alden Tilberg have scored an average of forty-five points. Tilberg's average per game is fifteen. All of his teammates have scored in each of the last three games. They have won fourteen of their seventeen games and are determined to even the count with K.U. to keep their record undefeated on their home court.
The Ft. Leavenworth cagers represent various organizations on the post and Sherman Field and are under the direction of Capt. Ronald I. Sieben, athletic director of the
Dargitz Leaves KU For Philadelphia Duty
Yeoman first class Claude A. Dargitz, a member of the ship's company of the Naval Training School since August. 1942, left today for the Philadelphia navy yards where he will receive further assignment.
Yeoman Dargitz, whose home is in Topeka, entered the navy in March, 1942. Sent to yeoman's school at Toledo, Ohio, in April, he reported for duty in the disbursing office here immediately following his graduation in August. He was transferred from the disbursing office to the executive office in October, 1943.
As in the case of the departure of other members of the ship's company, no replacement is expected for Yeoman Dargitz. This is in line with the navy policy of decreasing the permanent personnel of the station, Chief Yeoman George Starkey said.
Top Teams Are Phi's, Phi Psi's
It's all through in the "A" League of intramural basketball as the undefeated Phi Psi's last night ousted one of her chief contenders, the Blank's, 33 to 22. The Blanks, one-point winners over the Phi Gam's had previous to last night's game been tied with the Fiji's for the runner-up berth, but the independent team's defeat eliminated all chances of their gaining a play-off berth, while at the same time cinching the privilege for the once-beaten Phi Gam's, losers to the Phi Psi's
Leading the Phi Fsi attack last night were lanky Edwin Pyle, who scored 11 points, and Leuhring, another V-12, who dropped in nine. However, the leading scorer for the game was a member of the losing team, Smith, with 12 points. Smith also possesses the highest individual average in intramural play.
In "B" League play the Sig Alph's handed Battenfeld their third defeat, 27 to 18, and eliminated the latter from a chance for tieing for second. The same was true when an oft-beaten Sigma Nu five downed the DU's, 28 to 25, in another "B" League game. Both Battenfeld and Delta Upsilon had previously been deadlocked for second with SAE and the Beta's, all with two losses. The Phi Delt's rest safely at the top without a defeat chalked against them.
High scorers in these games were Miller and Verlage of Sigma Nu with 10 each; Mosher, Henry, and Schaeffer of the DU's with six each, Briney, SAE, with 13 counters, and Ashcraft, Battenfeld, with an eight point total.
post, and Cpl. Howard Iba. Captain Sieben played ball for Louis Menze at Iowa State who was one of Dr. Allen's pupils at Warrensburg State Teachers College before his move to Kansas. Corp. Howard Iba, brother of Oklahoma A.A.M.'s famous Henry Iba, played ball at Marysville State Teachers College when his brother was coaching there.

MM-EM to Box V-12 In Elimination Bout To Take on Haskell
A V-12 vs. MM and EM boxing match, described as a "natural" by promoter Chief Yeoman Starkey will be held in Hoch auditorium Friday night, Chief Starkey announced today. The eight or nine bout match, for which the contestants have not yet been picked, will probably be used as a means of choosing fighters to meet Haskell in a match scheduled for the first week of March.
In a previous match with Haskell, the V-12 lost all bouts of the evening, and in the return match Chief Starkey intends to use a combined Naval Training Station team, provided any of the MM's or EM's can prove their ability over a V-12 Friday night. Lt. (j.g.) Joe Zeller, recently arrived athletic officer of the MM's and EM's, will referee the bouts.
Colleges to Confer On Postwar Plans
Plans were made for a state-wide conference of Kansas colleges to discuss postwar educational problems, at a luncheon held by the University in the Old English room Saturday. Dean Paul B. Lawson of the College presided over the discussion. One representative each from Kansas State College, the teachers colleges, junior colleges, denominational colleges, and municipal colleges attended the luncheon.
They decided that the conference will be held in April, with the cooperation of the United States Office of Education and the state department of education. All colleges in Kansas will be invited to send delegates.

'High Intellect Among AST's, Lawson States
Army Specialized Training Program students are mainly of a high intellect, Dean Paul B. Lawson told members of the College faculty yesterday as he explained that the basic engineering course for the trainees is so broad that they are going into other branches of the army besides engineering.
One-fourth of the ASTP students will go into advanced engineering, but 25 students taking the basic engineering course are pre-medical students and many will go in the signal corps." The course is going very well." he said.
Ashton Reports Denver Meet
Prof. John Ashton, reporting the regional conference of humanities at Denver, said the emphasis stressed by the 37 colleges represented was not so much "humanities as a field of study, but as a point of view."
Realizing that American education faces the danger of pre-war Germany, the committee studying the teaching of humanities recommended individual study by the colleges on improvement of teaching, what can be done to break down rigid departmentalization, and the possibility of more group courses. Merriam Sets Forth Problems
Dean Gilbert Ulmer, reporting his recent conference with Prof. Merriam of the Harvard School of Business Administration, said that Professor Merriam, heading a committee of investigation in touring American universities, has set forth five problems for schools of commerce.
These problems are:
1. More guidance for the returning service men with the inclusion of refresher courses.
2. More general courses and integration of subjects rather than mixing courses.
3. Abandonment of divisions in some material fields such as in languages where study groups are now employed by the army.
4. Study of small numbers of events and phenomena in social sciences.
5. More universal training in English and arithmetic.
K.U. Grad Killed In Plane Crash
Randel C. Matthews, who received his bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering in '41, was aboard the American Airlines transcontinental plane which crashed in the Mississippi river near Memphis, Tenn., Thursday night.
Temil, Thursday night.
The son of Dr. and Mrs. Roy Matthews, Fredonia, and the nephew of Dr. and Mrs. I. E. Bailey, former residents of Lawrence, who now live in Fredonia, he worked for the Speery Gyroscope company in New York after his graduation. He was said to be "one of the most promising young engineers in the United States" by officials of the company.
J. O. Jones, acting dean of the School of Engineering, said that Mr. Matthews was "an outstanding student" at the University. He was a member of Sigma Tau, honorary engineering fraternity.
He had been living in Forest Hills N, Y, with his wife,
ASC Discusses Report On Schaefer Eligibility
The faculty advisory report on the eligibility of Virginia Schaefer was discussed last night by the All-Student Council in a special meeting.
The report concurred with the verdict of the student court, Jan. 6, when it declared that Miss Schaefer was ineligible to serve on the All-Student Council as she was also a justice of the student court. The student court has the power to declare unconstitutional bills passed by ASC.
The meeting was held in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building last night, with Peggy Davis, MSC president, presiding.
Shirkey Likes University Role
On his first visit to the KU campus the Rev. Albert Shirkey, who spoke at convolution Monday, stated that he was deeply impressed by the military units stationed here, and the part the University is playing in training these groups now and the role it must play after the war.
Dr. Shirkey believes the universities and colleges throughout the country are giving American youth a cultural background that will help them in planning a better world after the war.
When asked his impression of KU's observance of Religious Emphasis Week, Dr. Shirky said, "I like it. I especially like the participation of the students." He also stated his only wish was that he could have addressed the whole student body. "Religion," he said, "does not belong to a group, but to all. It is part of our social, mental, and physical life."
Religious Emphasis Week is a par of the national movement of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ located in New York. "It (the Council) has done great work in tearing down the barriers between the various religious groups," Dr. Shirkey said. Speakers for this movement are chosen from all parts of the country and represent all denominations.
An Ellsworth debate team composed of three girls and one boy won the championship over three other schools at the Class B school state debate finals held here Saturday.

Berlin Bombed Near Extinction In Record Raid
(International News Service)
(International News Service)
The campaign to dismantle and mobilize Berlin by aerial attack drew huge new dividends today. Giant fires that paralyzed the German capital, tied up its subway system, and wrecked vast war-producing areas, raged out of control in the wake of the heaviest assault made against any city since the war began.
More than a thousand giant British bombers roared over the city during the night. They dropped at least 2800 tons of bombs of dead weight and high explosives. Only 45 planes out of the entire armada were lost.
As they ripped and tore the center of Berlin and left in shambles vast sections of its industrial outskirts, they carried new assurance that by March 15—the date set for Berlin's extinction—it will cease to exist as a workable administrative and war production center.
The record-breaking assault which took some 10,000 British fliers to the heart of the continent, was the first large-scale raid on Berlin since Jan. 30.
Among other more serious results, the gigantic assault created indignation and confusion at Dr. Goebbel's propaganda ministry. His broadcast called the British pilots "air Huns."
Leadership Lost By Organized Religion Dr. Walker Says
Organized religion has lost any effective place of leadership in our civilization of today, Dr. Edwin Walker told the combined groups of the YWCA-YMCA yesterday in the Kansas room.
Dr. Walker, a professor of philosophy at the University of Colorado, said "Religious groups are being outstripped by other groups in moral leadership."
"We must talk about moral demands in concrete terms. So long as we talk about morals in abstract ideals there is not much chance for religious leadership returning. We must face the demands before reasserting leadership of the religious groups." concluded Dr. Walker.
He explained that we can never make Christian demands effectual in talking about vague ideals.
A short program preceded Dr Walker's speech. Margaret Snodgrass, freshman, played a piano solo, "Noctume in G Minor". Group singing arranged by Betty Pile, business junior, and accompanied by Hope Crittenden, formed part of the program. Thornton McClanahan, College senior, introduced Dr. Walker

U.S. Needs Draft After War—Hershey
Philadelphia, (INS)—Major Gen. Hershey, national draft director, said today that the United States must adopt a postwar system of universal military training or be "plunged unprepared once each 20 years" into future world conflicts. Hershey said mobilization of young men for military training must be continued concurrently with the demobilization of World War II's army and navy.

Dr. Florence B. Sherbon, who retired Friday from her professorship in the home economics department upon reaching her 75th anniversary, died at 8 o'clock this morning at her home in West Hills.
Interment will be in Coulax, Iowa, where in 1904 Dr. Sherbon married an Iowa University classmate, John Sherbon, and where until 1916 they made their home as the owners of the Victoria sanitarium.
Dr. Sherbon is survived by a sister, Miss Maude Brown, state supervisor of health education for Montana, who has been visiting her since last fall; and by twin daughters, Mrs. Leon Bauman of Posedale, Kan., and Miss Elizabeth Sherbon of New York City.
Was 75 Last Friday
In celebration of Dr. Sherbon's 75th birthday last Friday, a memorial scrapbook prepared by members of the home economics staff under the direction of Miss Edna Hill, professor of home economics, was presented to her. The scrapbook contained letters of tribute from the many colleagues and friends of Dr. Sherbon.
Dr. Sherbon wrote widely in the field of child welfare, a field in which she pioneered, and in which she has become a recognized national authority. Two of her most recent books, "The Child" 1941, and "The Family in Health and in Illness," 1937, both published by McGraw-Hill, have received international acclaim.
Iowa-born, Dr. Sherbon received her doctor of philosophy degree from Iowa University in 1892. After a year's teaching in Des Moines High School, she entered the Iowa State hospital at Independence for nurses' training. Following her graduation in 1895, she became superintendent of nurses at the hospital, a position she held until 1899. Until 1900 she was superintendent of the Iowa University hospital.
Returning to academic studies, she received doctor of medicine and master of arts degrees in 1904, the year in which she was married. Came to K.U. in 1917
In 1917 Dr. Sherbon was made director of the department of physical education for women at the University of Kansas. During the next two years she was responsible for the establishment of the home nursing and child care courses in the curriculum here. From 1919 to 1920 Dr. Sherbon served as chief of the division of Child Hygiene of the Kansas State Board of Health, but she returned to the University in 1921 to teach the course she had introduced.
Dr. Sherbon's biography appears in "Who's Who in America," "Who's Who in American Medicine," and "Leaders in Education."

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Death Enfolds A Brave Woman
Death came to Dr. Florence Brown Sherbon as it does to a hero on field of battle. The soldier fights for weeks in the shadow of the Angel of Death and hears the beating of His wings, but he holds his post, fulfills his duty, and serves his country till the shadow descends. He is a hero because he dies with valor, with honor, with nobleness. Dr. Sherbon was as ready as he; the shadow enfolded her in the same way.
Only a few days ago, scores of friends presented her with a book of greetings and declarations of esteem on her seventy-fifth birthday. Every one who sent greetings understood how clumsy and drab are words when one uses them to convey emotion, feeling, respect, and love. Not one but knew that Dr. Sherbon would never have another birthday. Not one but strove bravely to keep words of greeting from sounding like eulogy. They might have spared themselves their concern, for Dr. Sherbon knew she was soon to be called, and she was ready. To the last, she remained cheerful, friendly, and resigned.
Persons like Dr. Sherbon elevate man's respect for men, for she was liberal, tolerant, noble, charitable. Citizens like Dr. Sherbon raise the country's hopes for a better time coming; for she assumed public duties, she accepted civic responsibilities, she bravely led others to accomplish deeds of public benefit. Professors like Dr. Sherbon make a university great, for she had the courage of a scientist to follow wherever Truth seemed to beckon, she had the patience of a great teacher to encourage students to keep striving, she had the benevolence of a good woman to shed tolerance and virtue upon those who sought her counsel.
The University of Kansas will miss Dr. Sherbon-yet, she will always be part of it.
K.U. Group Largest At Topeka Forum
The University of Kansas had the largest delegation at College Day, in Topeka, according to Dean Ulmer, dean of the School of Liberal Arts. Representatives from colleges all over the state were present, also a representative from Yale, and one from Chicago University.
College Day, at Topeka High School, is a day set aside by the high school for students desiring to enter college in the next few years. Representatives from colleges in the state are asked to attend so that they may give information to interested students concerning their respective colleges.
The day began with a convocation, at which Professor Hill, head of the speech department of Kansas State College, spoke to the students on the advantages of continuing one's education. Following a luncheon given for the school representatives, the entire afternoon was given over to conferences with students, and sometimes their parents, who were interested in attending certain colleges. Dean Ulmer said that there were many students who seemed to be interested in KU.

The All-American Girl: Students in the art school made a weird looking product of perspective by taking a mask, hanging it in front of a sheet of paper, and drawing earrings, hair, and clothes on the paper immediately behind it. To add complexity to the study, the Pi Phi arrow was adorned to this "sweater girl," chained to Beta, Phil Delt, Phi Gam, and Gelt pins.
Jerome "Toio" Wildgen, feeling that the boys of PT8 have needed a quieting influence such as he himself might be able to exercise, has been rigorously laying down the law in regard to quiet hours, women, spring, and any matters pertaining to love. After he had virtually chased cupid from the PT unit, and while this new "Wildgen regime" was still at its height, Jerome was found deeply absorbed in social survey class, writing sweet love notes. Which shows that even the best of men succumb in time.

Wars have been caused by things like this: Kappa pledges challenged their actives to a snow fight after dinner Monday night. Just at the peak of the battle when the actives were slowly but surely losing ground, about 100 sailors from PT's 7 and 8 came swarming down the back steps on their way home from dinner. All of the Kappas beat a hasty retreat, but after 15 minutes of melee, sailors were snowballing each other besides the girls, who never hit anybody, anyway. Two lone soldiers who wandered into the fracs were almost exterminated.

Kansas Wins By Two Points Aganst Flyers
The Kansas Jayhawks defeated the Ft. Leavenworth Flyers at Leavenworth last night, 54 to 52, in their last service team game of the season. It was the first defeat of the year for the Flyers on their home court.
The Jayhawks started off strong and had rushed to a 17 to 7 lead with ten minutes gone. However, with Sgt. Alden Tilberg, former Bethany ace, hitting the basket at a torrid pace, the soldiers rallied and held a 29 to 25 lead over the Allenmen at half time. Tilberg scored on amazing total of 19 points in the initial stanza.
Kansas regained the lead after four minutes of the second half on a goal by Sherwood, Jayhawk's high scorer for the evening, to make it 35 to 34. Although Big Abe Turner did his best to stay with him, Tilberg hooked in seven more-points in the final half for a 26 point total—the highest individual scoring performance against the Jayhawks this season.
Jayhawks Lead By 10 Points
At one time in the latter stages of the game the Jayhawks led by 10 points, but the fighting Flyers would not give up and narrowed the margin considerably in the final few minutes. However, Leavenworth's last two points were scored on two free throws by Tilberg who was fouled by Moffett at the sound of the final gun, with a Kansas victory already assured.
The Kansas team hit 10 of 12 free throws, their greatest foul-shooting performance this year. The Jayhawks had blown both their games with Oklahoma because of free throw inaccuracy, yet last night, when little was at stake, they hit from behind the free line with great consistency.
Sherwood Leads KU Scoring
The Flyers used only six players and all hit the scoring column. Besides Tilberg, Wilson scored three points, Ryden seven, Carr four, McIntyre six, and Hill six.
Sherwood's 17 points sent him to the top of the Kansas scoring heap, the first time he has held such an honor this season. The Kansas forwards, Barrington and Moffett, counted five field goals apiece, with Barrington adding two free throws and Moffett three. McSpadden scored nine points for the Jayhawks and Turner hit for four. Diehl, Lindquist, and Stucker also saw action.
Ft. Leavenworth, only team this year to hold a victory over Olathe NAS, in losing last night dropped their fourth game of the season as against 14 victories.

From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
With the Jayhawks having completed service team competition after last night's victory over Ft. Leavenworth, now would be a good time to give a brief resume of the Jayhawk's successes against their army and navy foes and to select an All-Service team quintet. The Kansas played ten service games and broke even. The Allenmen twice defeated the Herington A.A.B., twice downed Ft. Leavenworth after close battles, and edged out the Fort Riley Centaurs one point on a last second goal by Lindquist in a game here in December. On the other side of the ledger the Crimson and Blue dropped a pre-season game to the University A.S.T. unit, and dropped two other games here in December to two navy foes, Hutchinson N.A.S. and Olathe N.A.S. The return game with Hutchinson was cancelled, while in meeting Olathe in a return game at the air station, the Jayhawks received their worst drubbing of the season, 25 to 49. Their other defeat was the recent one handed them by Ft. Riley CRTC at Junction City. All five of the Mt. Oreadmen's victories were over army fives, while three of the five losses were to sailor teams. The Jayhawks were unable to defeat a team made up of the men in blue this season.
The All-Service Team Five
After consulting with members of the Kansas team, we have chosen this quintet, selecting the most valuable player (in their game against Kansas) on each of the service teams played except Herington; Self, Olathe N.A.S.; Tilberg, Ft. Leavenworth; Wendell, Ft. Riley CRTC; Bean, Kansas A. S. T. P., Gawthrop, Hutchinson N.A.S. Others who deserve honorable mention include Trosper, Gillespie, and Johnson, Hutchinson; Herkel and Howey, Olathe; and Ballard, Ft. Riley.
The Iowa State Cyclones tightened their hold on their Big Six conference basketball lead by defeating Nebraska at Ames last night, 58 to 35. The Cyclones have now won seven straight league contests, but have three toughies left in their remaining contests with Missouri,

Oklahoma, and Kansas. We are predicting an Iowa downfall in one of these three stepping stones and are not too sure it might not be the last mentioned. The Menzene should be able to take care of Oklahoma in their return game at Ames, which will clinch the conference bunting for them, but, with the title already won and, with nothing at stake as far as they are concerned, when they meet the Jayhawks here March 3. Menze's boys may hit a snag. The Jayhawks, on the other hand, will probably have to win the game to beat out Missouri for third place. And a win over the conference champions would also be some consolation for an otherwise disastrous season—disastrous, in terms of an Allen-coached team, for should the Jayhawks fail to defeat Missouri here, and then lose the Iowa State finale it will be the first time a Kansas team has ever wound up in the second division since the formation of the Big Six in 1929.

V-12's, Ship's Co. To Meet Tonight
Top game of the twin bill in Lawrence League play tonight will be the encounter between the V-12's and the Ship's Company, in which Ensign H. L. Ware, now in second place in individual scoring in the league, will leave his position as coach of the V-12's to lead the attack of the Ship's Company upon the student trainees.
Ensign Ware's pupils will find it difficult to stop their coach, who has built up an 11.6 scoring average per game, and with Hagerdorn, the S. C. member who held Bock to one bucket last week, guarding Pyle, leading V-12 score, the V-12's will meet their stiffest competition of the season. However, as in other encounters, the reserve material available on the V-12 bench should suffice to "wear out" a victory over the not so plentiful members of the Ship's Company.
In the second game of the evening Bock, leading scorer of the league, should have opportunity to build up his average in the Blank-S.O.W. Ad, contest, as the Blanks now tied for second place with the Irish Rascals are favored for a win.
The Phi Delt's rang up their fifth intramural basketball victory. Last night defeating the last place Sar-ruth hall boys, 18 to 10. Dean Huebert bced the victors with nine points. The Phi Delt's, only undefeated team in "B" League play, hold undisputed possession of first place.

New Nazi Drive Finds Fifth Army Holding Firmly
(International News Service)
Planes Aid Ground Forces
(International News Service)
The complaint lodged by Gen. Sir Harold Alexander against unwarranted pessimism over progress of the Allied campaign in Italy met with new justification today when troops of the fifth army at the Anzio beachhead held firm and fast in the face of a new heavy German offensive.
Profitting by favorable weather American and British bombing and fighting planes of the Mediterranean air arm carried out wide spread soretes to support the ground forces and hammer still further the steady line of reinforcements which enables Kesselring to set in motion his latest attack after a three-day lull.
Still under orders from Adolf Hitler to gain a signal victory on the peninsula to erase the strain of successive defeat and boost the faltering morale of the German people at home, Nazi Field Marshall Albert Kesseling uncorked his new drive with tanks and infantry under cover of a massive artillery barrage. Direct News Lacking
Direct dispatches from the battlefront were almost entirely lacking due to Alexander's orders shutting down transmission until some correspondent's whose discouraging reports of the conflict "come into line."
But informed sources at Gen. Sir Henry-Maitland-Wilson's base headquarters in Algiers expressed belief that British forces bearing the brunt of the German assault were holding firmly.
Chancellor Deane W. Malot left yesterday to attend a convention of the National Association of State Universities at Ann Arbor, Mich.
The Chancellor and his wife returned Monday after a brief trip to California. Mrs. Malott's mother, Mrs. N. S. Thrum, who accompanied them, has returned to Palo Alto, after visiting for several months in Lawrence.
Alexander's action in hobbling news and radio correspondence at the battlefront because he thought the British and American people were receiving a too unfavorable report of Allied progress met with repercussion in both Washington and London where it was felt he had overstepped the bounds of his position
Enancellor Attends NASU Convention in Michigan
OWI Chief Confers with FDR
Davis declared that the heavy censorship imposed on news correspondents by British Gen. Sir Harold Alexander made it appear that "the concept of security has been stretched," to include a situation other than military security. The OWI chief said he had requested the war department to make representations against Alexander's restrictions.
Washington, (INS) — Following a conference with President Roosevelt, Elmer Davis, director of the Office of War Information, said "we don't feel that the American people have been given the full story from the Anzio-Nettuno beachhead which they are entitled to."
Commission Considers Lifting Of KU Property From Tax List
The K. U. Endowment Association's request to remove $35,000 worth of taxable property from the Douglas county tax rolls was taken under advisement by the state tax commission after a hearing in Topeka Tuesday.
The commission will make a decision after studying evidence presented in the case.
Property under consideration includes Foster hall, Hopkins hall, Jolliffe hall, a lot near the stadium deeded by the late George O. Foster to the University, and property where Mott's stables are located in the 1700 block on Michigan street.
Allen Crafton, professor of speech,
and Mrs. Crafton will present Somin's two-character play, "Close Quarters," Tuesday and Wednesday,
March 7 and 8. The play, which will be given at 8:15 p.m. in Fraser theater will open the activities of the spring semester.
Craftons Will Star In 'Close Quarters' On March 7 and 8
This play, written in French about ten years ago, has been translated into German, and from German into English. It was a big success on the London stage. Prof. Crafton has made still another adaptation of the original play. The theme deals with the life of a middle-aged couple during the 36 hours following a murder.
"Time and again, dramatists have tried to write full-length plays with a very small number of characters," said Prof. Crafton. "Most of them turn out to be bad or only fair drama. "Close Quarters" is, in my

KU 3-Ring Circus Set March 25 By YWCA, Union
A band will play on the stage for dancing and booths around the outside of the dance floor will be furnished by each organized house. A program halfway through the party will include a play put on by the faculty. Tickets for dancing will be sold at the gate, and tickets for the booths will be sold.
In speaking of postwar peace, Dr. Walker stated that "the social trend is pessimistic," and that people hope for peace but are doubtful that it will be everlasting or that other peoples will keep the peace.
A carnival in the form of a three-ring circus has been planned to take place from 9 to 12 p.m., Saturday, March 25 in Hoch auditorium. The Union Activities committee is working on the party in co-operation with the YWCA. All profits from the party will go to the YWCA for the student scholarship and postwar fund.
On the Union Activities committee are: Eugenia Hepworth, sophomore; Ann Zimmerman, junior; Edith Marie Darby, freshman; Catherine Foster, junior; Helen Gardner, special student; Marilyn Maloney, sophomore; Mary Nettles, sophomore; and Jane Atwood, freshman.
'Morality Cast as Idealism Impractical'Says Walker
Those working at present on the YWCA committee are: Roberta Frowe, sophomore; Jean Stodard, freshman; Mary Gayle Marsh, freshman; Annette Bigelow, freshman; Geraldine Hamm, freshman; Edith Marie Darby, freshy; Betty Grant, freshman; Martha Lou Cable, junior; Dorothy Warren, freshman; Elaine Wells, freshman; Elaine Wyman, freshman; Irene Sandelius, freshman; Shirley Hargiss, freshman; and Jeanne McGrew, freshman.
"Religious morality is cast in a framework of idealism in the minds of most people, and this idealism is now impractical," said Dr. Edwin R. Walker, associate professor of philosophy at the University of Colorado, who is a guest speaker for a series of lectures during Religious Emphasis Week.
Two Committees
He said that, in general, nearly all students want to know during these discussions what basis for ethical judgments can be found in religion.
"Russia, China, and Britain, as a whole, have in mind much better than Americans what they are actually fighting for," he said.
Receives Three Degrees
"Moral ideas must be put in a naturalistic framework," he continued, "and they must come of an analysis of the actual situation, whether political, economical, or social."
Dr. Walker will lead various discussion groups on the campus today on the topic of "Religion for Living, Today and Tomorrow." What Is Basis for Ia
Dr. Walker received a bachelor of arts degree at Southwestern University of Texas in 1926; in 1928, he received a bachelor of divinity degree at Vanderbilt University; and he received a doctor of philosophy degree at the University of Chicago the following year.
What Is Basis for Judgment
Dr. Walker is a frequent lecturer in colleges and has written articles and reviews in Journal of Religion, Christendom, Journal of Philosophy and several other periodicals of this type.
He held pastorates in Ferris, Texas and at the Central College church of Fayette, Mo. Since 1942 he has been associate professor in the philosophy department of the University of Colorado.
He is a member of the American Philosophical Association, Southwest Philosophical Conference, American Theological Society, Fellow National Council on Religion in Higher Education, National Student Committee of Y.M.C.A., chairman of the program committee of The Hazen Foundation, past president of the Missouri Council on Religion in Higher Education, and past chairman of the philosophy section of the Missouri Academy of Sciences.
Member of Philosophic Societies
28,000 Casualties In Italian Campaign
Dr. Walker has also been appointed director of a workshop on curriculum of religion in higher education of the University of Chicago for the coming summer.
Washington, (INS) — Secretary of War, Henry L. Stimson announced that American casualties in the Italian mainland campaign to date amount to 4,158 killed, 18,154 wounded, and 6,429 missing.
The secretary also revealed that more than 200 thousand men exclusive of sick and wounded have been sent back to the United States from foreign service since the beginning of the war.

Allies Bomb Kavieng To 'Mass of Flames'
Many readers of the United States weather reports were snickering in amusement this morning.
In contrast to the slow tempo of events on the Italian front, General MacArthur's forces piled up impressive victories. Hard on the heels of a devastating air attack against the Japanese garrison at Ponape in the Caroline islands, heavy bombers virtually wiped out the enemy base at Kavieng, New Ireland, leaving its airfield and barracks a "mass of flames and smoke."
Forecasters Impatient Kansas Climate Foils Weatherman Again
Monday's forecast for Tuesday was light snow. The snow failed to materialize, and the weatherman took a fresh hitch at his prognostication belt and postponed the arrival of the snow to Wednesday.
But Wednesday came and no snow. Losing patience, the forecaster said that the possibility of snow had ended. None was in sight. This is it. It occurred.
This morning, it snowed.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Come Play On My Team
Once upon a time there was a group of boys who organized themselves into a football team called "the Texans." They were big and bumptious, and proved to be haughtily contemptuous whenever any of the neighboring children gathered to watch them play, hopefully wishing they would be asked to join in the fun.
Instead, the Texans secluded themselves from their visitors, showing particular disregard for a small dark-skinned group that huddled on the border line of disgrace, according to the big boys. These little neighbors, the Mexicanos, silently watched and longed to participate in the game of ball. Their desires were not fulfilled, and their advances brought only scorn and ridicule from the Texans.
"Play on our team? Why, we should say not!" they said. "Go back to your own homes before you contaminate our field and leave the air filled with an unclean stench."
And so the Texans played, and the Mexicanos went home. But one day the picture changed. Many of the big boys left the team in the fall and went off to school in far places. The Texans were no longer a complete team with high noses, but were rather humble in their appeal for players to substitute on their stripped squad. Their only resource was to the south where the little Mexicanos could provide the needed manpower. But by this time, the smaller group had formed their own team, and were no longer interested in playing on Texan soil.
This revolt against "cases of extreme, intolerable racial discrimination," sounds sharply familiar to the recent, unanswered plea of Texas to the Mexican laborers during the wartime labor shortage, following the days when the dark-skinned neighbors had known nothing but northern "Jim Crow" treatment.

Bond Buyers to Get Passes Until Monday
Theater tickets will be given to all individual bond purchasers until Feb. 21, Stan Schwahn, manager of the Jayhawker theater, has announced.
"We are averaging ten calls a day," said Mr. Schwahn, "from people who believe that free tickets were discontinued with the end of the Fourth National War Loan drive, Feb. 15."
The complementary tickets will be good until Feb.29. Bond buyers may use the special theater form as an admission tickets, or obtain a ticket good to any Lawrence theater, he said.
Twenty theater tickets are given away every Wednesday night to bond buyers turning in their pledges for free tickets. This will continue through Feb. 23, Mr. Schwahn said.
Thus far, the Jayhawker theater has given away 1100 free tickets, representing $100,000 in bonds.
Mexican Literature Class Will Present Plays at Ateneo
Prof. C. J. Winter's Mexican literature class will present short plays to the "Atenlo" meeting at 4:30 this afternoon in room 113 Frank Strong hall.
All Spanish students are urged to attend, Louise Hatch, vice-president, said.

Russian Winter: The feud in Carruth hall (fresh air culturists vs. ordinary humans) ended on the coldest night of the month with John Bossi curled up alone on the Carruth sleeping porch (all 12 windows wide open) while the rest of the boys tossed on the floor inside. Up until the very last Bossi had Aubrey Gibson as an ally in his window-epening campaign. But when the latter woke up from a coke date dream and found he was really crunching ice, he, too, weakened.
Gibson's last night on the porch, he slept under a matress as well as on one it is reported.
When asked to comment on his strange objection for air, Bossi said,
"The porch is stifling. Perhaps I can arrange for a hammock in the front yard."

Men are such gossips: Taking Lolly O'Leary back to the Theta house one evening, Kenny Bellamy saw Mariette Bennett descend the stairs with an orchid on her shoulder. Concluding promptly that the attractive sophomore had just put out her pin, Kenneth the Reliable, rushed back to the Phi Psi house. Among those to whom he related the details of the pinning was Dean Simms, chapter member last year, who is now working on the Ottawa (Bennett home town) paper. Super-reporter Simms, rushed back to Ottawa, gave the red hot tip to his society editor, and took a day of for being so up on his toes. The society editor, irate over getting scooped by the Lawrence Journal-World called Mrs. Bennett, and Mrs Bennett in an equal huff called Mariette.

End of an Enemy
In a split second this enemy plane will be blasted from the skies by a shell from one of our anti-aircraft guns on the ground.
The answer is the Gun Director—an electrical brain which aims the guns. Swiftly it plots the plane's height and course. Instantly it solves the complex mathematical problem, continuously matching the curved path of the shell to that of the plane so the two will meet. It even times the fuse to explode the shell at the exact instant.
How can a gun hit a plane going 300 miles an hour 20,000 feet up...when it takes the shell 15 seconds to get up there and in that time the plane has gone more than a mile? Besides, the shell curves in its flight. Wind blows it. Gravity pulls on it. Even the weather affects its velocity.
The electrical Gun Director has greatly increased the deadliness of anti-aircraft gunfire. In its development at Bell Telephone Laboratories and its production at Western Electric, college trained men and women have played important parts.

Dr. Choguill Will Speak At Young People's Dinner
Dr. Orlo Choguill of Emporia will be the speaker at a dinner for young people at 6 p.m. tonight at the Trinity Lutheran church, under the sponsorship of the Lawrence Christian Mission.
Dr. Choguill will also speak at a meeting for University students at 4:30 p.m. Friday, in the chapel at Myers hall. Following this talk, there will be an open discussion period.
The University of Wisconsin recently took action to orient all campus defense chairmen for the purpose of affecting a more coordinated war program on the campus. Under the program, each war council chairman will have charge of nine chairmen to meet together to plan a more effective program.

Babc in the Woods: After five months at the "Country Club of the Middle West," Martha Metcalf, freshman, decided it was time she exhibited some sophistication. So for two days she listened studiously to waiters calling orders in the Hawk. On the third day—during a coke date, Jerry Wildgen, Sigma Chi V-12, asked her what she wanted.
"A little Red Riding Hood," said Marty.
Jerry's eyes bulged out. "Are you sure?"
Marty said she was.
"M'Gawd," hissed Jerry to a Chi in the next booth, "She's ordered a beer."
Her closest friends give Marty credit for really wanting a cherry coke.

Kappa Kappa Gamma has announced the engagement and approaching marriage of Jane Ham of Garden City, Kans., daughter of Mr. Robert E. Ham and Mrs. Caroline W. Ham, to Lt. Bob Markey, son of Mrs. Irving B. Markey of Cleveland, Ohio.
Kappa Is Engaged To Air Corps Officer
The marriage will take place March 4, at the Presbyterian church in Garden City.
Miss Ham, a College sophomore, was on the Dean's honor roll last semester, is a member of the Coed Volunteer Corps, and Entomology Club. Lt. Markey is a flight instructor at the Garden City army air field.
Dr. Sisler to Speak At Sigma Xi Meeting
Dr. Harry H. Sisler, assistant professor of chemistry, will speak at 7:30 tonight in Blake hall to members of Sigma Xi, national science fraternity. His speech is entitled "The Ammonia System of Compounds."
Dr. Sisler said, "Just as the oxygen containing compounds may be considered to be derivatives of water and thus constitute a water system of compounds with water as a solvent, so also the nitrogen-containing compounds may be considered to be derivatives of ammonia and thus constitute an ammonia system of compounds with liquid ammonia as parent solvent." He will further show how this relationship is borne out when he speaks tonight.
The next monthly meeting of Sigma Xi will be in Fraser theater March 11 and will be public. Prof Peter Debye of Cornell University will speak on "The Magnetic Approach to Absolute Zero."
CRAFTONS WILL---opinion, an exception. It unfolds an interesting dramatic story without the need of more than two characters. Aside from its inherent interest as good theater, this play represents an exceptionally interesting piece of play writing."

A few weeks ago Prof. Crafton tried to cast "A Midsummer Night's Dream" but because too few students tried out for the parts, the plan had to be abandoned. Professor and Mrs. Crafton have been working five weeks on "Close Quarters" and Prof. Crafton will attempt to produce an all-student play next semester.
A new service, a Personal Shopping Service, is offered servicemen stationed at the University of Cincinnati by the Kappa Kappa Gamma Alumnae association and sponsored by the YMCA.

Navy Interviews KU Officer Candidates
Students in the School of Engineering, and majors in physics and mathematics who will graduate in March and June, were interviewed yesterday as candidates for officers commissions by members of the board of naval personnel from the Kansas City naval office procurement office.
A number of businessmen from downtown also made application, said J. O. Jones, acting dean of the School of Engineering, who added that there were about 30 in all who were interviewed Business men under 35 with a college degree, or at least two years of college work and five years of business experience were eligible to apply.
"The naval officers were naturally most interested in the seniors who will graduate in March," said Dean Jones, in speaking of the University students who were interviewed.
Two line officers, Lt. Frank D. Kelly, and Lt. P. D. Kristich, and a medical officer, Lt. R. B. Cochran, were on the committee interviewing the men.
Recommend Committee on Oil
Washington, (INS) — The senate commerce committee recommended the creation of a 9-man 'special committee to investigate both the world and domestic oil situation.
Miss Nana Mae Hartley of Lawrence, a graduate in 43, was married to Lt. George Clark Rinker of the U. S. army air corps, at 8 p.m. last Wednesday in the First Christian church. Lt. Rinker was a senior in the College last year.
Two graduated candelabra against palms and baskets of white snap-dragons and gladiola formed a background for the ceremony which was performed by the Rev. Harold G. Barr, instructor in the School of Religion. The candles were lighted by the groom's twin sisters, Virginia and Dorothy Rinker, who wore gowns of green net over green satin, with yellow fuchsia sprays in their hair.
Miss Ruth Russell, fine arts sophomore, sang "Because," "I Love You Truly," and the U. S. Army Air Corps song, accompanied by Mrs. Maurice Clarkson, organist. The bridal music from "Lohengrin" and the wedding march from "Mendelssohn" were also played.
Hartley-Rinker Vows Read in Lawrence
The bride was dressed in a white silk gown fashioned with a sweetheart neckline, long fitted sleeves, and a skirt that lengthened into a short train. She wore a tiara made of white illusion with a fingertag veil.
The bride's sister, Miss Geraldine Hartley, was maid of honor. She was dressed in a gown of orchid chiffon and wore a cap of silver sequins. Her shower bouquet was of white carnations and white fuchsias. Her gown and that of Miss Rose Messer, bridesmaid, were made like that of the bride.
Pvt. Howard Fink, an ASTP freshman in the School of Medicine, was best man, and Pvt. Eugene Niniger, also an ASTP freshman in Medicine, was groomsman.
Following the ceremony, a reception was given in the church parlor. The bride's going away dress was light blue gabardine with black accessories.
Mrs. Rinker is head of the home economics department in the high school at McCook, Nebr. Lieutenant Rinker was a Summerfield scholar and member of Phi Beta Kappa while a student at the University.

V-12's Beat SC Blanks Top Ads In League Play
Weakened by colds, the Ship's Company went down before the V-12's 47-24 in Lawrence League basketball play in the Community building last night. Zeller, athletic officer of the EM training school, held Pyle, leading V-12 scorer, to four points, while Hagerdorn, who scored eight points for the S.C., limited Heim, the other towering V-12er to four points also. Lutz, with eight points, and Miller and Luehring with six each, kept the trainees ahead. V-12 led at the half. 25-12.
Bock, the league's leading scorer, and Hall, a newcomer to the Blanks, scored 17 and 16 points respectively to give the Blanks a 53-24 victory over the sixth place S.O.W. Ads, in the second game last night. Hoke led the S.O.W. scoring with 14 points. Half time score, 25-18. Blanks
The Machinist's Mates, now holding a record of two victories and two defeats, are favored over the S.O.W. Techs, in the first game of the twin bill tonight, and the V-12's once again should be able to handle the Blanks in the second game of the evening. Despite the high scoring of Bock and Hall, the height and material of the V-12 team was the deciding factor in the previous encounter of the two squads, and probably will be so again.
Banquet Will Be Given For Graduating MM's
Members of the seventeenth division of Machinist's Mates, which will graduate tomorrow, will be entertained at a banquet sponsored by the training school's Welfare department at the Community building tonight.
The party, described by Chief Yeoman George Starkey, sponsor-in-chief, as an "informal get-to-together," will be highlighted by the singing of the quartet from the eighteenth division, Joe Lucero, Ronald Hill, Egon Hanson, and Raymond Sanborn.
The dinner, another in the series given to each departing division, will be prepared and served by members and their wives of the junior divisions of the ship.
Feb. 25 Deadline for Seniors To Pay Class Dues
Feb. 25 will be the last day on which seniors being graduated in February may pay their dues at the business office in Frank Strong hall, Betty Lou Perkins, member of the publicity committee, announced today.
"Everyone should pay as soon as possible." Miss Perkins urged.
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Nearly every sports scribe in the country is adding his "few thousand words" concerning Bruce Drake and Harold Keith's red hot article, tagged "Seven-foot Trouble," in the current issue of the Saturday Evening Post. In last night's edition of the Kansas City Star C. E. McBride reviews the article, and, in adding his own little bit, states "that Drake is sportman enough to properly evaluate the idea, label it worthy of trial, and give its inventor (Allen) full credit. All true, and it is a fact that Drake is one of the very few coaches in the country that supports Allen's proposal, although there are a large percentage of cage mentors who do support some form of rules change to curb goal tending. One proposal would be to award a field goal when a defensive player touches a try for goal above the level of the basket after the ball has started its downward arc. This is absurd for although it may stop the "mezzanine hurdler's" advantage on the defense, it will on the other hand do nothing to stop his "goal dunking"—just as great an advantage—on the offense.
Drake's Slant on Allen
Drake and Keith give their opinion as to why many coaches shy away from Phog's suggestions and we are inclined to agree.
"I think another reason why the idea hasn't gone across is Phog himself," writes Keith for Drake. "Phog is the dean of collegiate basketball coaches in America, having been ranked No. 1 by the Helms Athletic Foundation. He has been on top for almost forty years, and it's human nature for other coaches to want to beat a man who has been king for that long. Phog is so foxy that the other coaches think any time he suggests a reform he has some ulterior motive up his sleeve."
The Only Solution
We actually believe that the only reason Drake, Keith, Oklahoma & Co. are so strong in supporting the 12-foot basket is not because of Allen and his proposal in itself, but rather because of one man, Bob Kurland, the 7-foot Oklahoma. In his freshman year Kurland batted away from above the rim 22 sure Sooner shots to pave the way for an Aggie victory. This season, with an added inch of height and a year's experience, Kurland, who is still growing, is far better at batting them out than last year. In fact, in Saturday night's Aggie-Sooner duel at Norman, National Rules Chairman St, Clair, SMU., will be specially perched in a crow's nest above the hoop to see that the Ida giant does not deflect any balls in the imaginary cylinder above the circle. N. Y. Tourney Should
Bring Followers
According to Henry Iba, Kurland is today the greatest performer in collegiate basketball. On the earlier eastern trip this season the Aggies played Westminster. C.C.N.Y., and
Temple, and Kurland started off the controversy about formulating the rules to offset his advantages which has been gaining momentum as the days go by. Now that the Ibamen have accepted a bid to the Madison Square Garden basketball tourney starting March 16, Kurland should further aid the 12-foot cause. For when the Kurland goal tending and dunking starts taking the measure of the East's greatest teams when the chips are down and money is at stake, Allen's line of followers should gradually increase. It's not for the betterment of the game in itself that most coaches are interested, unfortunately, but rather they seem to care only "for their own hides."
Cage Info
Maybe it is a good thing Kansas played Pittsburg early in the season when they did . . . The Lancemen have been showing rapid improvement and last night downed a fairly strong Arkansas five, 50 to 42 . . . Lance would like nothing better than to get even with the Jayhawks and the Kansas coach for not appreciating his officiating efforts at Norman last Saturday night . . . With 20 straight victories under their cap, the Olathe Clippers might run into a little difficulty at Columbia Saturday night when they bump into Missouri's Tigers . . . Bill Chandler, Marquette coach, who has been advocating five fouls for collegiate play, might have to up it to six if many situations occur like one in a high school game here last Friday . . . A Southeast High player was ejected before first half intermission after committing five fouls, which is allowed in Missouri's schools, and which was agreed upon before the game . . . Rather, why don't the coaches for a change spend a little time in teaching their boys not to foul?

Allies Invade Truk in Carolines In One of Major Moves of War; Japs Say Fighting Is in Progress
(International News Service)
The Japanese radio led the war news of the world today with a report that American troops had invaded Truk. With official Washington and Pearl Harbor silent since issuance of a 39-word communique announcing that a major onslaught against the great enemy base in the Caroline islands "had begun," progress of the daring enterprise could be followed only through Japanese eyes. Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, commander-in-chief of American naval forces in the Pacific, said nothing in his an-
to land in the fortified islands. His huge force of battleships and aircraft carriers may have been sent to Truk merely to blast the base from sky and sea, to soften it up for landings sometime in the future.
It would, therefore, be of propaganda value to the Japanese to claim the troops had stepped ashore, enabling them to assert some sort of victories when Nimitz's flotilla has accomplished its mission and returned to its starting point, presumably in the Marshall islands. Thus there was reason to treat the Japanese version with considerable care.
Is One of Major War Moves
The Japanese broadcast told of heavy American motored and mechanized detachments going ashore and said that fierce fighting was in progress. One account by the enemy propaganda agency, Domei, however, said that the attack might not develop into full scale invasion.
Whatever the actual object and outcome of the thrust may prove to be, the attack on Truk represented one of the major American operations of the war and won elaborate praise from the press of Great Britain, which said that penetration to this mighty enemy base was far ahead of the time table that had been anticipated.
Landings on any of the 70-odd small and large islands which comprise Truk would involve enormous, almost insurmountable, difficulties. All of them are enclosed by a coral reef necklace which has only two entrances. It was at Truk that the enemy consolidated its forces for the sneak blow against Pearl Harbor. Many observers attached great importance to the use of the word "begun" by Adm. Nimitz in his communique, a fact interpreted as confirming that the initial assault carried out by hundreds of bombers was to be followed by other action designed eventually to immobilize the base.
Pearl Harbor dispatches said that (continued to page two)
1,000 U.S. Lives Lost In Troopship Sinking
Close on the heels of the announcement by Japanese radio that American troops had invaded Truk came the news, issued by the United States army, that an Allied troopship carrying about 2,000 American soldiers, had been sunk in European waters, with a loss of half the men aboard. This comprises the greatest toll ever exacted from United States convoy forces.
Inspector of ASTP Pleased With Morale And Discipline Here
Highly pleased with the morale and discipline among ASTP students here, Col. Malcom A. Craig, director of the ASTP activities in the Seventh Service Command, returned to Omaha, yesterday afternoon, after completing a two-day tour of inspection of the local AST unit.
Colonel Craig spoke briefly to the entire command at retreat formation Wednesday evening. He stressed the purpose of the program, the need of the army for educated enlisted technicians, and the necessity for strenuous effort on the part of all concerned in order to meet the program's requirements.
Colonel Craig expressed himself as being well-pleased with the morale and discipline of the trainees and the thoroughness of their academic instruction, Lt. Col. W. L. McMorriss, director of the local AST unit, reported. Colonel Craig was especially impressed with the facilities provided by the University, Lieutenant Colonel McMorris added. These facilities include academic classrooms and laboratories, barracks in Lindley hall, drill hall and military classrooms in the Military Science building, and Hoch auditorium which is used for physical education and special examinations.
While at the University, Colonel Craig conferred with Chancellor Deane W. Malott and other University officials, discussing and clarifying various aspects of the Army Specialized Training Program.
Washington, (INS) Over scattered Republican protests, the house yesterday authorized a 30 million dollar government development program for the production of synthetic liquid fuels from coal, oil, shale, and agricultural products. The vote was 140 to 13. The bill, which now goes to the senate, authorizes the Secretary of Interior to construct and operate one or more demonstration plans and to sell their output on the commercial market after federal and state agencies have been offered the product.

MM's Graduated In Ceremonies This Afternoon
Their four-months training period here completed, the 124 members of the seventeenth division of Machinist's Mates received their diplomas from Lt. A. H. Buhl, commander of the Naval training school, in graduation ceremonies held in Frank Strong theater this afternoon.
Congratulating the men on their work, Lieutenant Buhl handed each man two diplomas, one from the Naval school, and the other from the University of Kansas.
With the diplomas, all but twelve of the men received a promotion to fireman first class, one rate higher than the fireman second they had upon their arrival. The other twelve men received the petty officer rating of machinist mate third class in recognition of their superior records while in training.
Dolan Named Henor Man
Jack Doan Haien, Ann Arbor, Mich., was named by Lieutenant Buhl as the honor man of the division, having a grade average well above his division mates. Trainee commander Ross W. Poole, Battle Creek, Mich., and his assistants, platoon leaders Albert C. Schlutter, Jersey City, Clarence M. Smith, Barnesboro, Penn., and Jack Haien were also commended by the station commander.
While here the division has been under the command of three different division officers. Placed in care of Lt. Pederson upon their arrival last November, the command was shifted to Lt. J. L. Zelko last month when Lieutenant Pederson was transferred to sea duty. Within a week, however, Lieutenant Zelko was transferred also and Lt. (jg) Paul Ashby took over the command for the rest of the training period.
Following their departure from the station, nearly all of the men will receive nine days leave before reporting to their next duty, which is to be with the fleet for the majority of the division. Chief Yeoman George Starkey said. A few of the men will receive more schooling in other lines.
Those men receiving MMC3 ratings are: Ray Beckner, Youngstown, Pa.; Martin Ganjoian, Avenel, N. J.; Raymond Greskamp, Indianapolis; Jack Haien, Ann Arbor; Lawrence Meeks, Wheeling, W. V.; James Plinkin, Elizabeth, N. J.; Robert Plisky, Michigan City, Ind.; Ross Poole, Battle Creek, Mich.; Albert Schlutter, Jersey City; Clarence Smith, Barnes-boro, Pa.; Russel Van Liew, Harrison, N. J.; and Henry Wendeler Lester, Pa.
Washington, (INS) — President Roosevelt today vetoed a bill which would have prohibited the use of government funds for food subsidies. In a strongly-worded message to congress, the President charged that the anti-subsidy measure if approved would bring about inflation.

Many audiences have been impressed by Professor Schuman's accurate predictions of coming events. As early as 1935, he had forecast a second world war, and in 1935, prophecied a major European crisis would occur on March, 12, 1938. It was on this very day that the Nazis marched into Austria. Predicted Coming World Events
In 1937, he foresaw the partition of Czechoslovakia, and the peace of Munich, and predicted that a universal war would begin between 1938 and 1940.
Portssor Schuman also forecast the German-Italian-Japanese alliance in 1938, and said that France would be defeated within a year after the war had begun.
On April 3, 1940, in the Knoxville News-Sentinel, he predicted the Nazi conquest of Rumania, the renomination and reelection of President Roosevelt, and the rift between Berlin and Moscow in the event of big Nazi victories.
At the same time, he also foresaw the defeat of the Allies on the European continent, and the coming of the American policy of all-out aid to Britain and China.

MM's Feast on Big Steaks In Graduation Farewell
Dining on steaks of a size unheard of in present civilian circles, the members of the seventeenth division of Machinist's Mates to be graduated from the Naval Training school spent their last evening together before their graduation and departure for sea duty at a banquet in their honor at the community building last night.
Seated at red, white, and blue decorated tables the 124 men of their division and their wives and friends listened to farewell speaches from the commanding officer, Lt. A. H. Buhl, and other officers of the ship's company, and heard the personal good-bys of trainee commander, Ross W. Poole, and of the division honor man, Jack Haien, who was named last night.
Chief Yeoman George Starkey, master of ceremonies, explained that the banner, "Adios Orphans", which was pinned to a blue background behind the speakers table, signified the double play "from Pederson to Zelko to Ashby" through which the division has gone in way of division commanders. At first, under the command of Lt. O. N. Pederson, the command was shifted to Lieutenant Zelko upon the transfer of Lieutenant Pederson, and then to Lt. Paul Ashby when Lieutenant Zelko was transferred.
Commenting that the banquets for Machinist's Mates were nearing an end because only the eighteenth division is left, Chief Starkey introduced Master Sgt. William Kollerender, his army uniform conspicuous in the mass of blue, as the best friend of the Navy in Lawrence. Chief Starkey then related that, when he was planning the best banquet seven months ago for the eleventh division, plans for the dinner broke down the day of the party. Taking his troubles to Sergeant Kollender, Chief Starkey said that the veteran of many barbecues of the University's ROTC unit relied up his sleeves, led the navy to the community building, and personally prepared the first Machinist's Mater banquet.
Program Has Somber Note
The program, although kept lively by the performance of Chief Starkey as master of ceremonies and his jokes at the expense of Navy veteran Chief Bosun's Mate Charles Ormsby and welfare officer Lt. (Jg) C.V.MeGuigan, contained a somber note in the fact that within a month the majority of these 124 men would be serving on the seas, a note that was accentuated by the announcement during the dinner of the Navy's attack upon Truk.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Soldiers in Marshalls See Interesting Life
The Marshall Islands will no doubt be the home of American soldiers for some time to come so it is interesting to know something about life there. Aside from the pro-Jap population and occasional hurricanes which nearly cover the low lying islands, there are much worse places.
The 33 main islands lie in chains northwest to southeast, and the landing by American troops was on the west. The inhabitants of these islands, or Kanakas, are expert seamen with their small craft which they navigate all around the islands. Thoroughly Japanized, although only under Japanese rule since 1914, are the Kanakas. Japanese customs have invaded the islands and Japanese religion and dress survive.
Although the climate is generally hot and moist, from now until July it will be cooler and drier. Coconutus, yams, bananas, and breadfruit supply natural food. No mosquitoes thrive to drive the entomologists to distraction looking for a species; in fact, the only pests are beetles and rats.
These islands, crowned by stately palm trees, are a few of the many the United States must take and hold in defeating Japan. Soldiers, sailors, and marines will see various islands in the ensuing months of war, but few will be as pleasant and as interesting as the Marshalls.
ALLIES INVADE----
(continued from page one) it was taken for granted there that Nimitz sent the fleet into action fully prepared to do battle with the Japanese navy. The expedition to Truk was certainly the strongest challenge yet thrown down to the enemy fleet. Reconnaissance photographs taken by marine flyers on Feb. 4 showed a considerable concentration of Japanese naval strength at Truk. If the Japanese follow their usual procedure, they probably retired these vessels before the American flotilla came into view.
Such withdrawal would enormously enhance the possibilities of a major United States triumph in the area and military logic demands the enemy defend these islands at all costs.
The geographical set-up of the island makes it a navy job to defend them, for shore defenses alone, particularly when under constant attack by carrier-based aircraft, would probably be insufficient to seal up the passes through the reef.

Reverse applepolishing: Pat Armstrong, Barbara Brehm and Joan Carr, Gamma Phis, sent their French teacher, J. N. Carman, a valentine. He sent one back. On the inside was written, "From Grandpa to the three powers, A, B, and C." They aren't sure whether this is indicative of their initials or their grades.

Choice items gleaned from the latest pamphlet on "Where and How to Meet Your Man" are as follows: Move near a war industry, frequent the tennis courts, bowling alleys, political meetings, band concerts—and last but not least is the public park. Becoming acquainted with men in the public park must be done very subtly, it says. The AST's would like to meet the gal who resorts to the measures above.
PROF. SCHUMAN---
Professor Schuman has traveled extensively in England, France, Germany, Italy, Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Russia, and the Balkans. He was in Germany when the Nazi revolution occurred, and saw the initiation of the first five-year plan in Russia.
(continued from page one)
He has appeared a number of times on the Chicago Round Table and Town Meeting of the Air radio programs.
He received his doctor of philosophy degree from the University of Chicago and taught there until 1936.
Shadows of the rue morgue: Between 2 and 3 in the morning, a loud male scream was heard which brought half of the Theta chapter out of their beds. Two or three minutes later a woman screamed twice, which brought even the housemother into the hall. A bed check was immediately made to see if everyone was safe. It was never ascertained where the screams came from, and the Thetas spent an uneasy night wondering.
The credit for this one goes to an anonymous "Shack rat." An August story on the equally august Sigma Tau, honorary engineering fraternity, was turned into the Daily Kansas and appeared in the paper as Tau Sigma, women's modern dance sorority.
***
He has also taught at Harvard and the University of California, and now holds the Woodrow Wilson professorship of Government at Williams College.
Professor Schuman has had 10 books published, among which are "Europe on the Eve," and "Germany Since 1918."
Blueprints for a student union building at Kansas State to be built after the war have recently been completed. Plans for the air-conditioned limestone structure include a browsing library, a cafeteria, and a two-story ballroom.

Vespers Sunday In Majority Year Since Inception
Twenty-one years ago the All Musical Vespers were begun at the University. Dean D. M. Swarthout presented the first Vespers program Nov. 11, 1923 in Fraser Chapel in the nature of an experiment, because he had had many suggestions for this sort of musical program. Sunday, the all-musical Vespers will be held for the third time this year with the same type of music that has made them popular for so long.
The University A Capella Choir will sing four numbers, "Art Thou With Me" (Bach chorale), "Come Shepherds, Follow Me" (John Bennet), "The Blue Bird" (C. V. Stanford), and "Hosanna" (Christiansen).
The Vespers will be conducted at 4 p.m. in Hooch auditorium. The Women's Glee Club will sing three choral numbers, one of which will be "Praise Ye the Lord in Heaven" (Arensky) with Lucile Wagner accompanying on the organ.
The string quartet of Waldemar Geltch, Eugene Niniger, Barbara Huls, and D. M. Swarthout will play the "Scherzo in E Minor" (Mendelsohn).

Boeing Officials Find Training Satisfactory
Reporting that he found everything "quite satisfactory," Russell Mosser, educational director of Boeing Airplane Company in Wichita, spent yesterday at the University checking the progress of the area-nautical training program. Twenty-five of the 59 women who are training will be employed by Boeing at the end of the course, said Mr. Mosser.
Mr. Mosser told Guy V. Keeler, director of the ESTW program that J. E. Schaefer, general manager and vice-president of Boeing, is also well satisfied with the training which is being given future Boeing workers. Of the 75 women trained in the first group to receive instruction here, 70 are still with Boeing in Wichita. Mr. Mosser said the record was considered very remarkable in the light of customary wartime turn-overs.

Jayhawks Head For Nebraska Play Tomorrow
Ready to shoot at the Nebraska Cornhuskers tomorrow night the first semblance of a real "working combination" this season, Dr. F. C. Allen and his scarlet-clad Jayhawks will entrain on Lincoln at 7 tonight.
Despite the season's entrance in the home stretch, the Kansas team at no time until now could boast a quintet that had played more than a couple of games together. Never content with his youthful five's performances, Allen, game after game, shifted new players into the starting lineup.
All along Allen fairly well decided on Captain McSpadden, Barrington, Moffett, and of late, Sherwood. But the fifth man has presented a problem. Lindquist, Dick, Stucker, Goehring, Frank, and Diehl all took shots at it, and although they will be along tomorrow night ready to fire into action at any time, it will be lanky Abe Turner, 6-4, former Washington Stater, who will fill out the starting lineup.
Turner Shows Improvement
Turner, showing great improvement as the season progressed, started his first game against Oklahoma, a tough team to start against in any man's book. Although a trifle disappointing in that match, Big Bob had a try at it again at Leavenworth Tuesday; and against the soldiers Turner looked great. Sharing the rebounds with Barrington, who had just about been a "one-man game" as far as rebounding was concerned all season, Turner gave the Kansas team that added height they needed.
height they In turning back the Leavenworth Flyers the Jayhawks for the first time this season resembled the "iron five" of 1943 fame in that the starting quintet took care of all the scoring chores—and fairly well divided it up, too.
Navy Quintets Win From S.O.W., Blanks By Decisive Scores
Showing both power and accuracy the two Navy teams romped over their civilian opponents in Lawrence league play last night in the community building.
Led by Flickinger with 16 points and Sharka with 10 points, the Machinists Mates defeated the S.O.W. Techs. 51-20 in the first game of the evening, Pittman, with 8 points, led the SOW scoring. Score at the half was 35-8, in favor of Navy.
In the second game of the evening three V-12 players, Miller, Pyle, and
The Jayhawks trimmed the Huskers the easiest of any Big Six foe this season when here in January the Allenmen turned back Ad Lewandowski's boys, 51 to 27. After leading only 23 to 15 at the half, the Crimson and Blue literally walked away in the final stanza, rolling up 28 points while holding the Huskers to 15. Nebraska holds fifth place in the conference standings, one notch above the K-State Wildcats, the only team they have defeated this season.
Huskers Will Be Tougher
But the Huskers should be tougher to down in this return match than in the earlier game. The home court advantage should lower the original 24 point margin to 20, as most analysts figure. Then the fact that a newcomer, Al Kirklin, from Northeast Lincoln High, has appeared should be given attention.
Kirlin, who takes over at center in place of "Buzz" Hollins, has proved outstanding on the defense. He, with Hollins, who controlled most of the rebounds in the initial Kansas encounter, should give the Jayhawks all kinds of trouble. Al Artman, Kearney veteran and only Husker letterman, has scored often of late, 18 points against K-State. His basket-shooting is a big reason why the Kansas team can now be ranked not more than 10 to 15 points the better.

Scott, scored 11 points each, and two others, Lutz and Heim, collected 10 each in the V-12's 64-43 victory over the second place Blanks. Bock, with 16 points captured individual scoring honors of the game, but his scoring, combined with the 11 points each of his teammates Smith and Hall, was insufficient to quell the V-12 scoring barrage.
With but 15 members in the squad, the University track team directed by Coach Ray Kanehl, left early this afternoon for Omaha to engage in a triangular meet with Kansas State and Nebraska at 3 p.m. tomorrow.
Weakened Team Goes to Omaha
Illness was expected to keep both Tom Scefield, Big Six outdoor high-jump champion last year, and Harry Johnson, runner, two major point winners from making the trip, and Whyte, too, will be out of the line-up.
Frank Stannard is expected to carry much of the burden of the Jayhawk scoring, by winning the hurdle events, and participating in the relay. Jim Richey, who in winning the quarter-mile and placing second in the 60 behind Missouri's Bussell, one of the conference's outstanding dash men, showed promise as a sprinter.
Just what the nine V-12 and six civilian members of the squad will be able to do is uncertain. The other two teams are weak for lack of military participants; so much so that the two-mile race has been eliminated from the events.

Hirohito Reveals Japan's Failure In Conducting War by Purge Of War Lords Sugijama, Nagano
Still staggering from the loss of 26 ships and more than 250 planes in a record-breaking American air assault against Truk, Japan reeled under a new invasion stroke at Eniwetok island in the Marshalls, whose western half was seized by U.S. shock infantry and marines. The net result was an unprecedented shake-up in Japanese military and naval leadership in which top officials paid the price of their inability to foresee American
offensive thrusts and take adequate precautions against the enormous losses that followed.
Outstanding victory of the political-military purge by which Hiroshito expressed his annoyance was an old line Japanese Fascist, Field Marshal Sugijama who attracted international attention in 1938 by jamming a totalitarian mobilization bill through the Japanese diet and making an open confession of his hopes for Japanese world conquest. Second in importance was Admiral Nagano, chief of the Japanese navy general staff. Sugijama's administrative tasks were taken over in person by General Tojo. Naval Minister Admiral Shimada assumed Admiral Nagano's duties.
Will They Commit Hari-Kar1?
Ostensively both Sugijama and Nagano became "advisers" to the war cabinet, but unless the old Japanese custom of hari-kari has fallen into disuse, these two militarists may soon depart this world by means of their own choosing. Broadcasts from Tokyo gave no hint into public日本 reaction over the set-backs, but by removing two of his favorite war lords from high office the Emperor made a public admission that Japan's war is not going any too well.
In announcing the changes in the high command the Emperor conceded heavy Japanese losses at Truk although the enemy figures naturally were below the verified tabulations issued by the navy department at Washington. According to the Japanese version, 18 vessels including 5 warships were sunk while 120 planes were lost. Adm. Chester Nimitz's figures in his communique showed 19 ships definitely sunk, 7 others probably sunk, and 250 enemy planes definitely destroyed or probably destroyed.
American Successes Continue
There were clear indications of continuing American successes at Eniwetok where an important air strip already has been seized and whose complete occupation will give United States forces a mighty aerial and naval base only 770 miles from Truk. The latter garrison in the smashed so soundly that Allied sea Carolines is believed to have been and air strength may be able to by-pass it in the future. So terrific was the first day's punishment meated out by carrier-based American planes that on the following day bombers attacked without interception choosing their targets freely and with exquisite care.

Grad. Artist Sends Work From Italy
Seven watercolor pictures painted by a graduate from the University while he was overseas are now on exhibit in Spooner-Thayer museum. Corp. Edgar Stareck, a graduate in the department of drawing and design in 1940, is now in a medical battalion at an army evacuation hospital in Italy. Of the paintings he has done while he has been in the army, only these seven are here in the museum. The pictures, packed in a wooden box, arrived from Italy two months after they were sent.
The most exceptional painting is one corporal Stareck titled "Dawn Over Biberate Harbor," Karl Mattern, associate professor of drawings and painting, said. Corporal Stareck sent the pictures to Professor Mattern, who has had them framed for the exhibit. The painter participated throughout the Tunisian campaign. He was painting in New York at the time war broke out. After Pearl Harbor he volunteered and was sent to Ft. Devens, Mass. He served in England and Africa and is now in Italy.
Others of his paintings are "Night Raid Over Bizerte," "Headquarters in Feriana" (Africa), a landscape in southern Italy, and one of northern Italy, a scene of a surgical aid station, and a scene of parachuters.
Corporal Stareck sent the titles of his pictures separately in a letter to Professor Mattern. He also wrote, "I am at present doing illustrations for medical installations." He studied under Prof. Albert Bloch, of the department of drawing and painting, while at the University.
Free tickets for the purchase of war bonds will be given by the local theaters through Feb. 29th, Stan Schwahn, manager, announced today. This is an extension of eight days from the first announcement, and comes as the result of the government's designation of the month for the close.
Theaters to Give Tickets for Bonds Bought Until Feb. 29
"The new bond headquarters is now located in the Bell Music Co. store, and anyone desiring tickets can obtain them there or from any theater cashier by presenting the validated theater bond pledge," Mr. Schwahn said. He said there had been a splendid response to the sale to date.
Continuance of V-12 Assured By Admiral
Leadership lectures for sophomores are being offered at the University of Cincinnati.
Rumors that the Navy V-12 program will be discontinued were proved false by a letter which Chancellor Deane W. Malott received today from Rear Admiral Carpenter of the U. S. Navy.
The letter quotes Vice Admiral Randall Jacobs, chief of naval personnel, as saying:
"The Bureau of Naval Personnel has recently received a number of inquiries concerning reports that the Navy college program may be discontinued. All inquirers have been advised that the navy department has no plans to discontinue this program.
"While changing war-time conditions may from time to time necessitate revision in the quotas for the program in order to conform with the needs of the service, the navy does not contemplate discontinuance of the program."
AST's Await Effect of Cut In Army Program
The extent to which the University of Kansas will be affected by Friday's announcement by the War Department that the Army Specialized Training program will be reduced to 35,000 men after April 1 is not yet known by University authorities, Chancellor W. Malott revealed today. He thought it possible that trainees in the advanced medicine course and 17-year-old reservoirs might continue training here.
"It is unfortunate that the Army's training program has constantly been beset by surprises, contradictions and lack of clarity, which has resulted in a sense of futility and frustration on the part of students and the universities alike," the Chancellor stated.
No Further Details Given
"Until further details of the Army's program are available, we shall carry on as at present. There can be very little certainty in times of war. But the war effort can best be served if all of us, students, faculty and administration, do our best day by day, to add our part to bringing about the conclusion of the struggle," he explained.
In regard to transferring Lindley hall from a barracks to classroom, Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, said that nothing would be done until further word was received on the number of army trainees who will be retained at the University. If they continue to send medics and pre-induction students, Lindley hall will have to be used to house and feed them, he said. AST's Granted Leave Friday
While awaiting word about their future, ASTs at KU were given leave Friday night by Lt. Col. W. L. McMorris, commanding officer.
This drastic curtailment of Army programs will affect the University of Kansas the least of any of the Kansas colleges. The enrollment of 4,069 consists of only 2,286 military trainees, and a large percentage of these are naval trainees. Pittsburgh State Teachers also has naval trainees, but Kansas State, Emporia Teachers and Hays Teachers will find their enrollments cut approximately in half.
Soviet Union Holds Solution To Postwar Riddle of Europe Schuman Tells Large Audience
Openings Announced In Band, Orchestra
Openings will be available for new members in the band and orchestra at the beginning of the new semester, according to Russell L. Wiley, director. Players of the French horn, bassoon, tuba, cornet, trombone, string bass, or tympany are especially needed, he said.
The department has several instruments, such as French horns, bassoons, and tubas, available for use, Mr. Wiley said. He has asked that students planning to become members of either the band or the orchestra arrange with him for an audition before enrollment begins.

FDR to Veto Tax Bill Fights With Congress
Washington, (INS) — President Roosevelt and congress seemed headed for a fight today over the Chief Executive's leadership in do that Mr. Roosevelt will veto the $21\%$ billion dollar tax bill sometime tomorrow. Such a veto would follow within a few days similar action on a bill banning food subsidies, as a method of beating inflation.
Congress, in the latter case, upheld the presidential veto and today began work on a bill extending the life of the Commodities Credit Corporation.
The President today conferred with the army and navy high command on the general war picture in Europe and the Central Pacific, and Paul V. McNutt in another lengthly conference. The talk with McNutt immediately gave rise to speculation in informed circles that the WMC head may become work director under the Baruch blueprint for reconverting industry from war to peacetime production following the conference.
Illinois U. Has 345 Mid-year Grads Three hundred forty-five students will receive diplomas at the University of Illinois' second wartime mid-year commencement.
The Soviet Union holds a solution to the "Riddle of Europe," Dr. Frederick L. Schuman, professor of political science at Williams College, Williamstown, Mass., told an audience of 1500 in Hoch auditorium this morning.
It is up to Great Britain and the U.S.A. to find a better solution, he counseled.
After a caustic review of United Nations policy with respect to France, Italy, Yugoslavia, Greece, Poland, Spain, and Finland, Dr. Schuman declared that the United Nations' motto was, "Come weal, come woe, my status is quo," and that the United Nations' statesmen were set upon restoring "everything as it was before, only a little more so." Schuman Names 'Conservatives'
"Winston Churchill is a conservative with a capital C." he said. "Secretary of State Hull is a conservative, with a small C. And—something which every Republica so with the exception of Wendell Wilkie already knows—Franklin D. Roosevelt is a conservative with a small C also."
There is nothing wrong with conservatism, he hastened to add, but the conservative United Tasties' solution for the riddle of Europe simply won't work. In the first place the plain people of Europe don't want it. And in the second place, the Soviet Union won't permit it. Russia Has Postwar Plan
Russia's plan for postwar Europe does not call for the communizing of Europe nor the abolition of private property, Dr. Schuman explained. It is a program to abolish fascism in favor of democracy, monarchy in favor of a republican form of government. It does not mean the annexation of areas nor the restoring of the international anarchy of national sovereignty.
The Soviet solution, Dr. Schuman said, "calls for racial equality plus the organized fostering of national languages and cultures in confederations in which frontiers have no economic or military significance.
Such a solution, Dr. Schuman pointed out, will end the conflict between Teuton and Slav which brought on the first and second World Wars. It will end war because the Slavs will be organized into a confederation which will include Russia, Hungary, Rumania, Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Greece, with maybe other nations in addition. France may be expected to restore its old Russian alliance, and against such a powerful front Germans, British, or Americans would never dare wage war.
May Be Other Solutions
As alternatives to this Russian solution, Dr. Shuman suggested that the British and Americans, working together might hit upon a better answer to the problem, but this he deemed unlikely. Or, he suggested, the British, Russians and Americans working together might (continued to page two)

All-Musical Vespers Feature Choral Work
The 81st All-Musical Vespers with varied numbers by the A Cappela Choir, the Women's Glee Club, the string quartet, the Symphony Orchestra, and organ music were held yesterday afternoon in Hoch auditorium.
The University A Cappela Choir under the direction of Dean D. M. Swarthout sang an arrangement of the Bach chorale "Art Thou With Me". The modern, wistful "The Blue Bird" (Stanford) was exceptionally well shaded in tone by the choir. The spirited "Come Shepherds, Follow Me" (A Madrigal) by Bennet added variety and the choir closed with the majestic "Hosanna" by Christiansen.
Barbara Huls, as violin soloist, played the "Adagio" from the "Concerto in G Minor" (Bruch) with suppleness and surety. She was accompanied by the University Symphony Orchestra.
Under the direction of Miss Irene Peabody, the Women's Glee Club sang three choral numbers. The club was accompanied by Lucile Wagner at the organ for the brilliant "Praise Ye the Lord in Heaven." The 60 voices blended in "Thee, Lord, Most Holy" (Satern). Fern Rueggegger, contralto, began "Let Thy Mercies Come Also With Me" (Davis), with a chant-like solo.
Prof. G. Criss Simpson opened the program with the expressive "Prelude" from the First Symphony by Vierne. The University string quartet played the bright and lively number, "Scherzo in E Minor" (Mendelssohn).
The University Symphony Orchestra under Director Russell L. Wiley closed the program with "Tales from the Vienna Woods."

Jayhawks Win Over Nebraska After Hard Fight
The Kansas Jayhawks duplicated an earlier victory over the Nebraska Cornhuskers by trimming their rivals to the north Saturday night at Lincoln, 56 to 47.
However, victory came only after a hard battle from the Huskers and the Allenmen had a lot tougher battle than they did in the earlier contest which was a walkaway for the Jayhawks, 51 to 27.
The Huskers were expert marksmen from the field Saturday night and parted the netting from all angles. With a newcomer, Al Kiril, who never participated in the other duel, scoring 14 points, all on long shots, the Nebraskans kept in the game all the way and with five minutes remaining narrowed the margin to only five points, 43 to 48.
The Jayhawks, taking advantage of Nebraska's rushing defensive tactics, worked the ball in to Moffett and Barrington who scored 21 and 18 points respectively, mostly on set ups. Often these two Kansas forwards found themselves completely in the open under the basket when a Husker rival was pulled out of position.
Kansas, using only seven players, took a 28 to 19 halftime lead. Other contributors to the Kansas scoring attack were Sherwood with three points, McSpadden with nine, Turner with three, and Goehring with two. It was Kansas' third Big Six victory of the season.
Iowa State to Meet Missouri Tonight
The Iowa State Cyclones venture to Columbia tonight to meet the fighting Missouri Tigers is the attraction on the Big Six cage program this week.
Although fresh from a 58 to 35 trimming of the Nebraska Cornhuskers, the Menzemen may find the Tigers in Brewer Field House, nemesis of many a title hopeful, a tough go. The Missourians, with Pippin and Collins leading the way, handed the Olathe Naval Air Station Clippers their first defeat in 21 games Saturday night at Columbia, 47 to 41.
Oklahoma lost in a "pitcher's duel" to Henry Iba's Oklahoma Aggies Saturday night, 11 to 14, with their "hold-the-ball" style limiting the Aggies, despite Kurland, to only 14 shots at the basket.
In a battle Saturday night the K-State Wildcats downed Rockhurst, 38 to 26.

V-12's Take Crown In Fast Boxing Bout With MM's, EM's
Winning seven out of 12 bouts from the combined MM and EM teams, the V-12's emerged as champions of the Naval training school in the match held in Hoch auditorium Friday night.
V-12 started the evening with three unanimous decisions over MM opponents. Allyn Harrison, 125 pound V-12 from PT8 outpointed William M. Olin, seventeen division, and two 135 pound V-12'ers, James Toomey, PT8, and Dick Hunter, PT6, drew decisions from Charles Marceaux and Julius Fisherman, eighteenth division.
In the 145 pound class two eighteenth division MM's reversed the procedure, with Carl Redinger winning a 2-1 decision over Dean Bagley, PT4, and John Marques outpointing Herbert Hill, PT3, by the same margin in one of the faster matches of the evening.
Billingsley Wins First TKO
Pat Billingsley, PT8, won the first TKO of the evening in the second round of his 155 pound bout with Charles Harvey, eighteenth division, after Harvey had taken the first round on points.
The EM's won honors in the 160 pound division by taking two of three fights, one by a TKO of S. S. Benestante, Co. 2, over Henry Moon, PT3. Moon put up a game fight but he was no match for the experience of Benestante, a former Golden Glove champ from Dallas, Texas. John L. Bauer, Co. 1, won the other EM victory over Clinton Sloan, PT6, with a 2-1 decision.
Allen Stubbs, PT7, scored a TKO over Ralph Kyle, Co. 1, in the first round of their 160 pound encounter.
Robert Templin, seventeenth division, added another victory to the MM-EM list by scoring a first round TKO over V-12 John Bergin, PT5 in the only bout of the 165 pound class.
V-12's Win 175 Pound Class
The V.12 fighters took both bouts of the 175 pound class from members of the eighteenth division. Joe Kelleher, PT4, won a unanimous decision by Bernard Bloom, and Bob Scalzo, PT4, added to the string of TKO's against Joe Lucero in the second round.
Lieutenant Zeller, athletic officer of the MM and EM school, refereed. Judges were Lt. Joseph R. McCord, of the ASTP unit, and Lt. C. M. Smith, USNR, aviation officer of the V-5 unit.
Winners of the bouts of Friday night will be combined into a Naval Training team which will meet the Haskell Indians at Haskell Feb. 28.
A tea will be given at 4:30 this afternoon for Frederick L. Schuman, who spoke to the University convocation this morning, in the English room of the Union building. It is sponsored by Pi Sigma Alpha, honorary political science fraternity; and all students and faculty members are invited to attend, according to Thornton McClanahan, president.

The Kansas team clinched victory in the final event of the afternoon when the mile relay team came home in front by 15 yards while the Nebraskans were coming in last.
Despite the fact that their ace high jumper, Tom Scofiel, and dash man, Harry Johnson were not available, the Kanehl lightclads proved the class of the field at the Triangular meet at Lincoln Saturday afternoon, collecting a total of 43 2-3 points. Nebraska was second with 40 1-3 points, with the out-manned Kansas Staters trailing with 14 counters.
With victories over their three civilian Big Six foes the Kansas indoor door track and field team, coached by Ray Kanehle, can enter Saturday's Big Six event at Kansas City knowing that they can at least do no worse than third.

Wing Commander Crawford-
Compton, worked his way from New
Zealand to join the RAF in 1989.
He is the founder and leader of a famous New Zealand Spitfire squadron. Accredited officially with downing 17 enemy aircraft, crippling 19 others, he has also engaged in fight combat against three battleships, the Scharnhorst, Gneisenau, and Prinz Eugen. He fought in the raid over Dieppe, and recently accompanied American flying fortresses over Germany.
He was awarded the DSO and DFC, and holds the United States Silver Star.
The New Zealand wing commander is in this country as a guest, and comes to the University through the British Consulate in Kansas
Choir Has Openings For Next Semester
New places in the University A Cappella Choir will be open for the second semester, Dean D. M. Swarthout, director, has announced. Two or three more basses, two tenors, and two alto of better than average ability can be used. One credit a semester is allowed for this activity by almost all schools of the University.
Since the A Cappella Choir was organized last September, it has lost 18 men who could not remain for the full school year. Their places have been filled by 18 new members of the choir.
The choir will give a full concert program in the spring; will sing again in the final vespers in March, and will present the dramatic "Stabat Mater" by Rossini with the K.U. Symphony Orchestra during Music Week in April.
George March, assistant engineer in the water laboratory offices, is a candidate for councilman in the Republican primary.
KU Man Seeks City Post
Dean Swarthout said those wishing to enroll in the A Cappellis Choir in the sections having vacancies should get in touch with him at once.
Washington, (INS) — Yielding to President Roosevelt's veto, the senate banking committee today reported a resolution to continue the Commodity Credit Corporation until June 30, 1945, minus the anti-immigration rider originally on the bill.

Patterson to Enroll, Talk With Pre-Nurses
Women students interested in nurses training will have the opportunity to confer with Miss Sara Patterson, superintendent of nurses at the University of Kansas hospitals in Kansas City, by making an appointment to see her Thursday, the College office announced today. Appointments must be made in the College office, Miss Veta B. Lean said.
Not only will Miss Patterson discuss nurses training with any student interested, but she is able to enroll women in the pre-nursing course if they desire.
No Peace Promises To Battered Germany, Churchill Pledges
(International News Service)
Prime Minister Winston Churchill today ruled out for defeated Germany the possibility of any easy peace, any bargain, or any deal predicated upon pledges or promises. In his first war review to the House of Commons in almost half a year the Prime Minister stressed the appalling devastation which still lies in wait for Germany at the hands of Allied bombers.
The present gigantic air offensives are only the beginning he said, and they will be widened and multiplied as the months go by. Churchill contributed much to world understanding of the war and its outcome by describing in some detail what Germany in surrender and defeat will face from the victorious Allies.
No Conditions At Surrender
Terms of unconditional surrender do not mean the German people will be enslaved or dispoiled Churchill said, but he added, it does mean the Allies "will not be bound to them at the moment of surrender by any pact or obligation."
Churchill continued, "No such agreements will be admitted by us as were used by Germany after the last war for surrender in consequence of Pres. Wilson's fourteen points. If we are bound by our own consciences to civilization we are not bound to the Germans as a result of a bargain struck."
Germany automatically is barred from the promises and commitment of territorial integrity inherent in the Atlantic charter, the Prime Minister said. He revealed that in the course of the conferences at Tetheran he and Premier Marshall Joseph Stalin have agreed upon compensation for Poland at the expense of German soil, and he added, "There will be no question of the Atlantic Charter applying to Germany as a matter of right and barring territorial transfers or adjustments in enemy territory."
"That," he added with solemnity, "Is the meaning of unconditional surrender."
Clapper's Mother Returns To Home in Kansas
Poland to Get Nazi Territory
Mrs. Julia Clapper, mother of Raymond Clapper, KU alumnus, has returned to LaCyne, Kan., to make her home with her brother, Albert Crow, a retired army sergeant. She had been living with her son in Washington, D.C., but since his death has decided to return to the scenes of her childhood.
Graduates Get Reserve Tickets For Services
Contrary to earlier announcements, tickets will be issued to graduates so that their relatives and friends may sit in the reserved section of Hoch auditorium for the graduation exercises Sunday, Feb. 27, Harold G. Ingham, head of the University commencement committee, has announced.
Seniors will receive four tickets when they get their caps and gowns in Robinson gym, between 10 and 12 a.m. and 1 and 5 p.m., Saturday. Graduates may obtain as many additional tickets as they need, at the Chancellor's office.
Chancellor Deane W. Malott, Governor Andrew Schoeppel, Lester McCoy, chairman of the Board of Regents, the faculty, and graduate students will all be in the procession. The faculty will be seated in the front of the auditorium opposite the graduates.
The commencement services will begin at 3:50 Sunday afternoon at Frank Strong hall and will be continued in Hoch auditorium at 4:00 p.m.
Buehler to Start Red Cross Drive On Campus March 1
E. C. Buehler, professor of speech, has been appointed head of the University Red Cross drive which will open March 1. Dr. F. C. Allen, Lawrence chairman of the 1944 campaign made the appointment.
Complete plans for the drive at the University have not been made, according to Professor Buehler, pending a meeting Thursday in which details will be drawn. There will be no quota for the campus, but a heart appeal will be made to all students. The quota for Lawrence is $29,100, 60 per cent above last year's aim.
"The Red Cross wants your money," said Dr. Allen. "A bond is a loan, now let's give. We don't need quota, this is a possessive, a heart appeal with the slogan "Your Red Cross at his side." Let's answer Berlin and Tokyo with our Red Cross contributions."
Money given to the Red Cross is nearly all used for the benefit of military men. The home service work is done quietly but it contributes much to the morale of fighting men by providing the contact between home and military camps scattered all over the world. Among other activities on the home front are blood plasma collection, production of millions of surgical dressings and garments, the Nurses Aides and Home Nursing programs, and nurse recruiting.
Liberal Education Not Widespread
St. Louis (INS)—Liberal education is practically non-existent in America today except in one or two places, according to Dr. Robert M. Hutchins, president of the University of Chicago. Speaking recently at St. Louis university, Dr. Hutchins accused Liberal Arts colleges of giving "patch-work courses," and allowing majors, minors, and specialization.
Closing Time for Coed Houses During Examinations Posted
Closing hours for women's houses, starting tomorrow night and extending throughout final week, will be 11 o'clock with the exception of Saturday night, when they will be 12:45, Jill Peck, president of the WEC, announced today.
Kansan Board Elects New Staff
Jenne Shoemaker, College junior, was elected editor-in-chief, and Virginia Gunsoll. College senior, was elected managing editor of the University Daily Kansan, yesterday at a meeting of the Kansan Board.
The Board decided at the same meeting that the Kansan will be published for the last time this semester on Thursday, Feb. 24. It will resume publication March 7.
Miss Shoemaker takes the place of Anne Louise Rossman, College senior. Miss Rossman was elected assistant managing editor. Miss Gunsolly takes over the duties of Ruth Tippin, College junior.
The two new staff members will appoint their respective staffs and present them for approval at a Kansas board meeting Wednesday evening. The new staff will serve during the first half of the spring semester.
Two AST's Injured In Car Collision
Paul Ellsworth Horton, ASTP from Denver, Colo., and Arthur Rhoades, ASTP from Merriam, are in Watkins Memorial hospital suffering from injuries received in an automobile accident which occurred at 12:45 a.m. Sunday, a mile east of the junction of highways 59 and 24.
Both students suffered minor bruises and lacerations and will be confined to the hospital for a few days.
Others injured and recovering in the Lawrence Memorial hospital;
John Riggs, 920 Connecticut St,
dislocated hip and lacerations. Riggs is employed as a steaflitter foreman by the University.
Mrs. John Riggs, 920 Connecticut street, lacerations and bruises.
Miss Betty Dunn, 1346 New Jersey street, lacerations and bruises.
According to Harvey Schmedemann, state highway patrolman who investigated the accident, Mr. and Mrs. Riggs were coming west in a 1941 Chevrolet, and Rhoades, driving a 1941 Buick coupe, was going east when the two cars collided. Both cars were badly wrecked.
Schuman Misquotation In Kansan Corrected
A misquotation in yesterday's Kansan story on Dr. Frederick L. Schuman's address in Hoch auditorium was called to the editor's attention and has been confirmed by Dr. Schuman. The Kansan quoted him as saying, "And—something which every Republican with the exception of Wendell Willkie already knows—Franklin D. Roosevelt is a conservative with a small C also." The statement should have read, "And—something which no Republican with the exception of Wendell Willkie knows."
FDR Charges Vetoed Tax Bill Shows Privileges
Washington, (INS) — President Roosevelt, in a caustic message to congress today, vetoed the new tax bill charging that it provided "special privileges to favored groups." He said that the tax measure was a relief bill "for the greedy." In an extremely bitter statement, the Chief Executive said that the measure was "wholly ineffective" and he called on congress to pass immediately a tax bill which would provide "adequate revenue for wartime needs," to support the stabilization program, and to "hold firm against the tide of special privilege."
Throwing the gauntlet to congress,
Mr. Roosevelt continued that the vetoed measure is "not a tax bill but a tax-reliety bill providing relief not for the needy but for the greedy." He further lashed at congress with the charge that the legislative body had "failed wholly to take any step toward simplification of tax returns for the individual payer." He bitingly said that the tax payers "now engaged in an effort to win the greatest war this nation has ever faced are not in a mood to study higher mathematics."
'Close Quarters By Craftons Set For March 7-8
What happens to a middle-aged couple during the 36 hours after a murder will be revealed in the presentation of a two-character play by Somin, "Close Quarters," starring Prof. and Mrs. Allen Crafton as the first dramatic activity of the new semester. The play will make its initial appearance at the University at 8:15 p.m. Tuesday, March 7, in Fraser theater, Professor Crafton of the part of speech has announced, "Close Quarters" will run through Wednesday, March 8.
Both Professor and Mrs. Crafton have had professional experience in acting. They worked together in one of the well-known experimental theaters, "The Prairie Playhouse" and Mrs. Crafton was a member of Walter Hampden's company. Professor Crafton appeared in vaudeville, at the Castle Square stock company in Boston, in Shaw's "Candida", and other plays.
Ranging from Hamlet to singing burlesque songs, Professor Crafton has played nearly fifty parts here in Lawrence. Among his achievements are Harvey Green in "Ten Nights in a Barroom"; Liliom, the judge, in "Beggar on Horseback"; Ernest Inch in "White Wings"; and Esdra in "Winterset."
Since coming to Lawrence 20 years ago, Mrs. Crafton has appeared in a number of parts, including Geertrude in "Hamlet"; Juno in "Juno and the Paycock"; and probably gave her best characterization as Mrs. Midget in "Outward Bound." Her last appearance was as the front end of the horse, Josie, in "White Wings." According to Professor Crafton, she was given this part because she could whinny realistically.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Keep on Buying War Stamps and Bonds
The Fourth War Loan drive is over, although the sale of stamps and bonds go on. K.U. students and faculty are to be congratulated on their whole-hearted participation in the bond drive and their purchase of nearly four times the goal set for the University.
Although the goal was $5,000, sales of war stamps and bonds totaled $19,090 during the drive. The Coed Volunteer Corps, with Betty Jo O'Neal as able major, did a good job. Climaxing the Fourth War Loan drive and bringing in the majority of sales was the dance in the new Military Science building, sponsored by the CVC and Union Activities committee.
The war stamps and bond sold during the dance totaled $13,220. The group sponsoring this dance made the most of a competitive spirit on the campus between organized houses to choose a queen by votes issuing from the sale of war stamps. Students rallied to support their favorite, and also to support their country in one of the important ways they can.
Although the drive is over, let's continue buying war stamps and bonds. Let us show that it is not enthusiasm over a dance, that it is not sudden consciousness of a nation-wide drive, but that it is the desire to back our government and the boys who are fighting bloody battles on all fronts which causes us to buy war stamps and bonds.
Many students have pledged so many war stamps a week to keep the sales of war bonds high. Let's all do it.
W. E. Hodges, K.U. Graduate Head of Belleville Schools
Announcement has been made by Prof. H. E. Chandler, secretary of the Teachers Appointment bureau, of the placement of William E. Hodges as superintendent of the city schools of Belleville. Mr. Hodges received his M.S. in education from the University in 1938.

Rock Chalk Talk
By MARY MORRILL
The pause that refreshes: At 11:15 the other Sunday night there was a knock at the Phi Bete door. Assuming it to be a man, since all good University women stow away at 11 o'clock, Larry Johnson went downstairs in his favorite studying outfit (which isn't so chic). Standing in the snow was Betty Sanden, Delta Gamma. She was with Dana Claire Jackson. In attempting to get Bob Brown's car out of the Phi Bete driveway they had slipped and were stuck. Could the Phi Betes pause long enough in their studies to push?
The next Wednesday just before dinner, there was another knock. Six D.G.'s shoved a note at the medic who answered and fled. The note read: "To the Phi Betes who waded through the snow Sunday night." On the porch was a case of beer.

Tempus Fugit—especially at night:
Liz Niven is naturally unpunctual and she has a terrible time (1) keeping track of when closing hours are,
(2) making them. The other night when Corbin rolled up its walks, Liz per usual, was not on hand. Feeling sisterly, a dozen girls gathered in the living room and waited until; sometime later, Liz came strolling in with
Vernon Smoots, 1244 Ohio. The girls harmonized on "Good Morning to You" and offered condolences to Liz—automatically campused for the umpteenth time.

Pardon me, but you dropped some-something: On an initiation scavenger hunt a group of potential Kappa Psi's (pharmacy fraternity) called on Mavis Lukert at the Sigma Kappa house. Exhibiting a pair of black step-ins trimmed in white lace, they demanded the complemental piece of underclothing. Mavis accommodated, but the next day she regretted her generosity. In class, as the eyes of other students popped out, one of the boys picked the small pink garment out of seemingly nowhere and tossed it across the aisle to her.

Germans Fail in Anzio; Reds Near Krivoi-Rog
(ouat services service)
(International News Service)
Gen. Sir Henry Maitland-Wilson announced officially that Germany's effort to dismantle the Allied beachhead at Anzio in Italy had resulted in failure. A grand scale counter-offensive by an estimated 135,000 Nazi troops backed by planes and tanks fizzled out, his communique said, and local engagements followed the savage fighting which cost the enemy heavily in men and equipment.
From Moscow came dispatches telling of Soviet troops advancing in a semicircular movement around the Russian iron ore center of Krivoi-Rog. Russian forces already were said to be within the city's suburbs.
American naval and air forces in the Pacific hammered incessantly at wide spread Japanese outposts and shipping lanes. With Eniwetok atoll of the Marshalls firmly in American hands, U. S. navy units maintained their relentless bombardment.
Secretary of the Navy, Frank Knox, reported that in three weeks of fighting this month American forces in the Pacific have sunk 92 Japanese ships of all types and probably destroyed nine others.
Etter supposedly frightened the intruder away. Evidently, however, the girl's vocal efforts were appealing. At breakfast the next morning two bats were perched on the light fixtures. That night Alice (Bring 'Em Back Alive) McDonnall, using a shoe box and a mop, battled the bats and returned things to normal.

Since his retirement he has been working on the history of education in the state of Kansas and, in addition to this, has spent much time in his shop in his home at 704 West 12th street repairing and refinishing antiques and making tables and lamps.

Monastery Was Visited By Teacher
The bombing of the monastery of Montecassino, which the Germans had converted into a fortress, was of personal interest to Prof. D. L. Patterson of the History department who visited the monastery while on a trip through Italy before World War I.
Montecassino was the original Benedictine monastery founded in 529 A.D. by St. Benedict, an Italian. The St. Benedict order is the oldest monastic order in the world. This massive stone structure was situated midway between Rome and Naples and stood on Mt. Cassino, 1600 feet above the town of Cassino.
Famous Library of Manuscripts
Professor Patterson made the trip to the monastery because of his interest in its famous library containing thousands of medieval manuscripts. The writings of Roman historians were found in this library. Before the bombing, 12,000 of these manuscripts were removed by the Germans, but it is not known where they were taken or if they have been destroyed.
Professor Patterson remained at the monastery for two days and nights, sleeping and eating in a cell with the monks. It was possible to see 30 or 40 miles in every direction from the mountain, he said, making it an advantageous position for a German observation point.
Monastery Began National Monument
Monastery Became National Monument
Betty West Whitney Joins Staff of Wichita Station
Betty West Whitney, journalism graduate in 1942, has joined the staff of Station KANS, Wichita, as a copy and script writer. She formerly worked for Braniff airways in Wichita.
Her husband, Ensign David Whitney, is serving aboard a destroyer in the Pacific. He is a brother of Prof. Marjorie Whitney of the design department, and received the bachelor of arts degree in journalism in 1942.
A suggestion of the ancient monastery is the Abbey of St. Benedict, built in 1929 and overlooking the Missouri river at Atchison. The Abbey is built with many of the features of the historic monasteries of the past, with beautiful Gothic arches, cells, thick walls, and a large library.
In 1866 the Italian National government took over the monastery and made it a national monument. At the time of Professor Patterson's visit, 300 boys were studying in the school which was conducted by the monks.
The monastery of Montecassino was simply built and added to over the centuries. The structure consisted of large, open, paved courts surrounded by buildings. The cathedral was one of the most famous of the buildings.
Simply Built Monastery
Photographs of the monastery and its interior, brought back by Professor Patterson, have been on display at Watson library.
April 1 Is Deadline For High School Journalism Contest
The 24th annual contest for Kansas high school papers conducted by the University's department of journalism has been announced by Prof. Elmer F. Beth, acting chairman of the department. School which publish printed, lithographed or mimeographed newspapers or conduct pages or departments of school news in local downtown newspapers are eligible to enter several or all of the divisions in the contest, Professor Beth said. Entries must be postmarked before April 1.
The eight divisions in the contest are news story, editorial, feature story, human interest story, interview, service to school, business management, and miscellaneous including cartoons, columns, special departments, and so forth.
Three newspapers will be designated as winners in each division of the contest, Prof. Beth said. They will be ranked first, second, and third—unless the equal merit of the work submitted in a certain division makes such rating impossible.
Judges, as in former years, will be members of the faculty of the department of journalism.
KU Dames Will Meet Tonight
A meeting of the K.U. Dames will be held at 8 tonight. Mrs. Paul renick, 739 Ohio, will be the hostess. Assisting hostesses will be Mrs. Madison Coombs and Mrs. Arthur Dudgeon.

Playoffs Tonight In Intramurals To Be Battles
Four closely matched basketball teams will be striving for victory in tonight's semi-final intramural playoffs in Hoch auditorium.
At 7 the Phi Psi's, unbeaten champions of the A League, will meet the Beta's, B League runners-up, and at 8 the B League victors, the Phi Delt's, will tangle with the Phi Gam's, the A League second place winners.
The Phi Psi's boast one of the biggest men in the league in Ed Pyle, former Macksville ace, who has a deadly hook shot off a post. Teaming with the lanky sailor is another V-12. Leuhring, who, although as small as Pyle is large, makes up for his size in speed and shooting accuracy. Chestnut, Phi Psi manager whose successful drop kicks spelled defeat for Missouri and Warrensburg on the gridiron last fall, also is good for a few baskets each game.
The Beta's, who earned their playoff offberh by beating out the Sig Alph's, 30 to 23, last night to break their second place tie, are a far more potent outfit than they were in early games and rank at least on a par with their Phi Psi rivals. The addition of Roderick, who scored 12 points in last night's dual for high honors, and Sifers, both AST's, has boosted the Beta cause immensely. Mowery, the griddler, and Chase also give any team a busy evening in stopping them.
Phi Delt's Appear Stronger
The Phi Delt's, boasting former varsity squadmen Scott, Hedrick, and Harris, appear to be a mite stronger than the Phi Gam's, although both teams are well stocked with material. Huebent, high score for the Phi Delt's, will have his hands full in attempting to outscore the Fiji high pointmaker, Whittenberger, second high intramural scorer. The Fiji's, with such players as Hartigan, Riegle, "Red" Stucker, and Neff, lost only in A League play to the all-victorious Phi Psi's.
The finals will be played in Robinson gym Wednesday night with the championship battle at 7 and the consolation contest immediately following.

From the Sidelines
By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Although leading only 18 to 16 at the half, the Iowa State Cyclones hammered down the Missouri Tigers in the last 12 minutes in last night's important Big Six contest to win, 43 to 32 . . . With eight consecutive conference victories pocketed away, Menze's boys still have to meet Oklahoma and Kansas, a mighty tough chore however you look at it . . . Should Oklahoma triumph in their return game with the Cyclones it would knot both teams in a tie for first . . . The Allenmen, if they could pull a victory out of the fire in their battle with the Cyclones here March 3, would not only beat Allen's pupil, Menze, out of the championship but would also wreck Allen's pre-season prophecy that the Iowans would win the championship in a breeze . . . But before any thoughts should be turned toward the Cyclone finale, the Jayhawks must first take care of Kansas; State there tomorrow night (a supposedly simple chore) and then the Missouri Tigers here (and not so simple) Saturday night . . . Should Kansas lose to the Tigers in the battle for third place it would be the first time a Kansas team has wound up in the second division since the formation of the Big Six in 1929
Big Upset
In one of the biggest upsets in these parts this season the Washburn Ichabods downed the Hutchinson N.A.S., winners over Oklahoma A & M, at Topeka last Friday, 37
to 35 . . . The sailors were without a starter, Barnum, but yet couldn't match the startling performance of the inspired Ichabods who were determined to wind up their season in a blazing fashion.
The N.C.A.A., if it doesn't begin offering competing teams more (i.e., MONEY) than just glory, it will soon become just a minor attraction in comparison to the attractive New York Metropolitan Tourney in Madison Square Garden . . . Already the Oklahoma Aggies, best team in these parts, and Utah, the best, in fact the only team of merit, in the Rocky Mountain Area, have accepted Garden bids.
N.C.A.A. Losing Out
Odds And Ends
* *
* *
Probably just as startling as the Washburn victory over Hutchinson was Pittsburg Teachers triumph over Arkansas . . . Arkansas, with Rice, has already clinched a sure championship in the Southwest conference . . . Yet neither Pittsburg and Washburn, in their contests with Kansas, were second rate ball clubs . . . The Olathe Clippers, stopped by Missouri the other night; after piling up 20 straight victories, now seemed headed the other way.
. They lost their second straight to Maryville, Mo., Teachers last night, 48 to 58 . The Big Six conference athletic directors will meet in Kansas City Saturday night to discuss spring sports and army trainees.
Society Needs Law Dean Moreau Says
The study of law must be kept going for the good of society even though it may not be studied as fully now during the war, Dean F. J. Moreau said recently in a meeting with pre-law students.
No group of men will do more in this war than men in the legal profession. The war is being fought to preserve laws which are practiced by the lawyers.
Those who are guiding young people looking forward to law, Dean Moreau said, should note these ideas
in their guidance: The lawyer should be thoroughly informed; he should know how to think; and he must know how to express himself both orally and in writing.
Women should know the opportunities open to them in law today, Dean Moreau said, for now is the time to break down the prejudices built up against women practicing law.
The students were warned not to "dilute the concrete which goes into the foundation." He advised students to get a well-rounded college background before entering the School] of Law.

Summerfield Scholars To Be Nominated
Invitations to the faculties of Kansas high schools to nominate candidates for the Summerfield Scholarships at the University were issued by University officials this week. These scholarships are maintained through funds given by Solon E. Summerfield, New York manufacturer and University alumnus. The amount of the scholarships depends upon the financial requirements of the successful candidates, and those having no outside resources will receive grants sufficient to cover all necessary expenses incident to a college education.
Appointments, which are made by the University's Summerfield Scholarships Committee with Dr. Paul B. Lawson, College dean, as chairman, are made for merit only, without regard to the financial resources of the nominees. Nominations by high school faculties are not to exceed five percent of the boys of the graduating class and should reach the University committee not later than March 10, according to preliminary announcement. Each school is entitled to at least one candidate.
On the basis of information furnished by the schools, a selection will be made of the nominees to be invited to a preliminary examination to be held at several points in the state on Saturday, April 1. The average number of candidates has been approximately 250 for the past few pears. From 20 to 30 will be chosen from the preliminary contestants to come to the University for the final tests on May 5 and 6. From 10 to 15 candidates are usually selected for the awards.

Wall Falls In Mud Hut
A loud crash followed by the sound of glass breaking and a buzzing noise startled students and professors in the Aeronautical Engineering building about 2 yesterday afternoon. Prof. H. S. Stillwell interrupted a long distance phone call to dash to the front office, where he found part of the wall had fallen over.
Bits of broken glass from a fallen picture covered the floor. A tin wastepaper basket was crumpled, and the filing cabinet had a long gash in one side.
Across a desk lay a 9 by 10 foot section of wood frame with heavy insulite covering. C. R. Shields, CAA Coordinator, Elsie Folks, and Kati Gorrill, stenographers, who had also hurried to the office, were attempting to lift the section off the desk. It had fallen on an adding machine, switching it on so that a buzzing sound was produced.
The section was part of a wall between the office and a classroom. That part of the building had originally been designed as a radio station with large windows between the rooms. The insulite sections were installed in place of glass when it was used instead for the aeronautical engineering department. It had evidently never been fixed in place securely with nails or pegs.
Miss Gorrill, College junior, who customarily works at the desk the boards fell on, was typing in another room. Mrs. Folks had just left her desk when the section fell. Glass covered her chair, and the edge of the board extended over it.

Announcements for February graduates are in the business office and may be obtained today, Jill Peck, chairman of the invitations committee, said today.

AST's Continue Class Program In Army Spirit
Despite the fact that the majority of the AST trainees at the University will be assigned to troop duty before April I, they are carrying on in true Army spirit with no let-down in the program, Lt. Col. W. L. McMorris, director of the local unit, said today.
said today.
"Trainees are showing a high degree of leadership in both classroom work and military duties, and are carrying on in the best traditions of the service," Lt. Col. McMorris complimented the men.
The Secretary of War has sent a personal message to each trainee regarding the action which reduced the AST to 35,000 trainees, including 5,000 pre-induction students, and releases about 110,000 trainees for troop duty.
War Secretary Sends Messages
This message states:
You have been working under high pressure to master as quickly as possible those essentials of College training of greatest importance to your development as a soldier. The time has now come for the maturity of you to be assigned to other active duty.
"To break the enemies defenses and force their unconditional surrender it is necessary to hit them with the full weight of America's manpower. Because of this imperative military necessity most of you will soon be ordered to field service before the completion of your normal course.
Most Will Be in Ground Force
"Most of you released from the ASTP will be assigned to the Army Ground Forces for duty with Divisions and other units. Your intelligence training and high qualities of leadership are expected to raise the combat efficiency of those units. The thousands of ASTP trainees who have already been assigned to field service have set high standards for you to follow."
Concerning the proposed plan advocated by a special committee of college presidents for the enrollment of 100,000 volunteer 17-year-old high school boys, Lt. Col. McMorris stated that should this be put in effect, the University of Kansas has facilities, including housing, mess, and text-books, for about 700 reservists.
Government to Run L.A. Power System
Mr. Roosevelt directed all federal agencies to cooperate to the fullest extent possible in carrying out the order which authorized Secretary of War Stimson,' to continue operation under the present management.
Washington, (INS) — For the first time since Pearl Harbor the federal government today took over functions of a municipal government when President Roosevelt by executive order directed the war department to operate the strike-bound power system of Los Angeles, Calif.
The order also authorized the war department to provide protection to the plants and facilities and to all employees remaining on the job or any new employees that might be used to keep the plant operating.
Trail Left On Sidewalk By Prowler
Slowly, every step resounding on the pavement, a man, dragging one foot, progressed up Gower drive last night around 11:30. The thud, scrap of his step went past the Kappa house and sounded halfway up the walk leading to Battenfeld hall. Then there was a scream—a man's scream, long, terrifying and pathetic. Two shots were followed by a second scream.
This morning students going up the walk to the Hill found they were following a trail of dark red stains.
Every night for a week, this routine has taken place shortly after women's closing hours—first the dragging step up the hill and then the scream. Women in the Theta house were frightened first. Then the night walker began screaming nearer the Kappa house. Last night his efforts to terrify penetrated to Watkins and Miller halls. Frantic calls were put in from one woman's house to another where students were so terrified they could not work in their basement study halls
The wave of terror soon awakened housemothers, who realizing the screams were a product of some sadistic joker, called the police anyway to quiet their girls. With searchlights, policemen went all over the ground between Tennessee and Lilac lane—but discovered no one.
In the light of today, even the women who were most frightened last night, are laughing about the prowler. His dark red stains on the walk could have been blood—but they aren't. They are catsup.
Senior Caps, Gowns Ready Saturday
Exhibit B, found five feet from the catsup trail, is a broken record with "My Heart Tells Me" on one side and "No Love, No Nuthin'" on the other.
Caps and gowns for seniors graduating this semester will be issued from 10 a.m. to 12 a.m. Saturday and from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday in room 201 Robinson gym, Harlan McDowell, chairman of the cap and gown committee announced today. McDowell said that although it was hoped all seniors would get their caps and gowns Saturday, it would be possible to get them from 1 to 3 Sunday afternoon.
The traditional senior breakfast will be served to graduating seniors at 9 a.m. Sunday in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building, Jean Oyster, chairman of the senior breakfast committee said.
Tomorrow's issue of the Daily Kansan will be the last until Tuesday, March 7, because of examinations and between semester vacation.
Those seniors who are graduating Sunday can get their invitations at the Business office, according to Jill Peck, chairman of the invitations committee.

Barkley Resigns Senate Position After FDR Veto
Washington, (INS) — Alben Barkley of Kentucky, Democratic floor leader of the senate assailed President Roosevelt's veto of the tax bill today in a speech resigning leadership of the senate. Grim-faced and bold in voice, Barkley began his speech by saying that he would prefer to answer the President's argument on veto of the tax bill in consideration of an effort to override the veto.
Barkley has been majority leader of the senate since 1937 and was key note speaker and permanent chairman at the 1940 Democratic convention in Chicago which nominated President Roosevelt for the first third term in American history. The expected resignation of Barkley from this key post marks the first time any such action has been taken by a Roosevelt lieutenant since the inception of the New Deal.
Democratic colleagues announced this afternoon that Senator Barkley will be re-elected leader of the senate tomorrow but the Kentuckyan announced that he did not want that to happen.
"I didn't resign as a gesture," Barkley said. Several Democrat senators said Barkley would be re-elected unanimously after he submits his resignation to the party caucus tomorrow.
Hard to Enroll Men Of 17 in AST Course This Summer—Malott
Chancellor Deane W. Malott today expressed his belief that there would be some difficulties in the plan of enrolling 17-year-old volunteers for army specialized training this summer, as proposed by a committee of college presidents in Washington yesterday.
"If they had a definite plan by which their college training would fit definitely into the war program, I would find more favor in it, but just to send them to college for a few months and then jerk them away into service without having correlated their studies definitely with military training seems a waste of time and effort for the boys as well as the college," he said.
The army's pre-induction program for 17-year-olds now includes fewer than 5,000 boys, but under a plan submitted by the educators committee, headed by Edmund E. Day of Cornell University, 100,000 boys would be brought under college training.

Fire Damages Downtown Shops
The most costly Lawrence fire in 14 years resulted in an estimated $30,000 damages when flames of unknown origin swept through the Hanna Radio shop and Pierson's candy store late last night. Although these two establishment were the only ones which suffered heavy losses, five upstairs offices and the Servicemen's Club were damaged by water and smoke. The report was turned in to the Lawrence fire department at 11 p.m. The blaze was brought under control at 2 a.m., but firemen remained on the scene until 8 o'clock this morning.
The origin of the fire has not been determined, said Paul Ingles, fire chief, but it is believed to have started in the back of either Hanna's or Pierson's, in the ceiling. Seventy-five feet of ground was included in the scope of the fire.
Many radios, refrigerators, and other mechanical devices which were in repair at Hanna's, were destroyed.
Both stores are charred and cluttered with debris, although the walls are still intact.
College Award Saves Masters From Want
New York, (ACP)—An $800 award for "eminence in literature" promises to relieve the difficult straits that have befallen the once fabulously successful poet, Edgar Lee Masters, author of "Spoon River Anthology."
The award, presented jointly by the University of California, Harvard University and the Poetry Society of America, came just in the nick of time, his wife said.
The 74-year-old author is recovering from pneumonia and malnutrition. His bills were paid by the Authors League of America. He was discovered ill in a charity ward last December.
Bitten, brusque and proud. Masters had been dependent upon royalties from poems published more than 25 years ago. His recent books have earned little, his friends said, and "Spoon River Anthology" royalties, still coming in, have been just enough to pay the rent since around 1937.

Weidlein to Talk At Convocation Friday Morning
Dr. E. R. Weidlein, director of the Mellon Institute of Industrial Research of Pittsburgh, Pa., will be the speaker of an all-University convocation Friday at 10:30 at Hoch auditorium.
Dr. Weidlein was graduated from the University in 1969 with a major in the department of chemistry. He received much of his training under the late Dr. H. P. Cady, one of the nation's outstanding scientists, in the days when the industrial fellowship system had its beginnings in hall. He became assistant director of Mellon Institute in 1912 and director three years later.
The special musical program for the convocation will include a violin mazurkaj. "Obertass" (Weinemanski) played by Helen Pierson junior in Fine Arts, and accompanied by Yolande Meek, junior in Fine Arts, Dean D. M. Swarthout of the School of Fine Arts announced today. G. Criss Simpson, assistant professor of organ, will play an organ prelude and postlude, and Joseph W. Wilkins, professor of voice, will lead the singing of the "Star Spangled Banner."
Injured ASTP Moved to Topeka
Paul Ellsworth Horton. ASTP from Denver, who was riding in the car driven by Rhoades, is in Watkins Memorial hospital recovering from bruises and mild concussion. He will be released tomorrow.
Arthur Rhoades, ASTP from Merriam, who was injured in an automobile accident on U.S. highway 24 early Sunday morning, was removed yesterday afternoon from Watkins Memorial hospital to Winter General hospital in Topeka, according to Dr. R. I. Canutson, director of student health at the University.
In addition to bruises and lacerations, examination yesterday revealed that Rhoades had injured a vertebra of the neck, and will be confined about six weeks or more, according to Dr. Canuteson.
Miss Betty Dunn, who was also in the car driven by Rhoades, and Mr. and Mrs. John Riggs, occupants of the other car involved in the accident, are patients at the Lawrence Memorial hospital.
Library Hours to Hold Between Semesters
Regular library hours will be maintained between semesters as far as possible, depending upon the available help, according to M. Cherles M. Baker, director.
Because some of the service units will remain on the campus, a few of the reading rooms will be kept open, said Mr. Baker. ___

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Education for Young Is Vital in Wartime
The shortage of teachers today is a serious problem. Manpower shortages are obvious in every field at home and on the fighting front. The approaching absence of AST's on the campus makes students at the University more than ever conscious of the shortage of manpower in the Army. There just don't seem to be enough people available for the necessary jobs in our complex society, with the added burden of war
The abundance of population is young. Here the manpower shortage is realized in a lack of teachers for these young Americans. All over the country this shortage has become a community problem, a problem with which we must cope. Children all over the world are being robbed of their parents, their homes, their security, and their education for a democratic world.
The re-education of European and Asiatic children is perhaps one of the most important aspects of postwar reconstruction. But the problem of education can not wait until after the war. It is a present and vital problem. Young Americans must not be deprived of their education to live according to a free heritage. As has been said a true democracy exists when citizens accept responsibility as well as benefits of society, and education is necessary to realize this responsibility.
Teachers have been lost to the armed services and to defense plants and factories. Also fewer college students are preparing for this profession. Many opportunities are offered today which sparkle with glamorous patriotism and high salaries. Those who want to help their country to prepare for a better world will look toward the teaching profession. An unselfish profession, but one in which teaching the fortunate children in our country gives an unequaled satisfaction.
The manpower shortage in the teaching profession is a serious indication of lack of responsibility and culture in our society. We only hope that this situation is alleviated so young Americans can continue to be the luckiest children in the world.

List Water Resources Of Oil-field Areas
The underground-water resources of the oil-field areas of Ellis and Russell counties are described in Bulletin 50 just published by the State Geological Survey of Kansas. This investigation included a study of the quality and chemical nature of the water, the rocks yielding supplies of potable water, and the rocks in the Cretaceous system suitable for the disposal of brines produced with the oil. The report was prepared by Dr. John C. Frye of the State Geological Survey of Kansas and James J. Brazil, formerly of the Kansas State Board of Health. The investigation was carried out as a cooperative project of these state agencies and the Federal Geological Survey and the division of water resources of the State Board of Agriculture.
Tables in the report give data such a depth, water level, and chloride content of 232 water wells. Complete chemical analyses are reported for samples collected from 34 wells. The mechanical analyses and permeability of nearly 100 samples of sandstone and gravel are also listed in the report.
It was concluded in the report that the Cheyenne sandstone of Cretaceous age was satisfactory for the injection of brines because it is protected from these water-producing formations by overlapping shale.

Dr. O'Brien Surveys School Pay
Under the supervision of Prof. F. F. O'Brien of the School of Education a survey on school salaries in Kansas for the year 1943-44 was completed last week.
Copies of this report were sent by the School of Education to the state's county superintendents, city superintendents, principals of high schools in first, second, and third class cities, the State Department of Education, the heads of education departments of other universities and colleges in the state, the Kansas State Teachers Association, the legislative committee of the state on education, faculty members of the School of Education, P.T.A. leaders, and Governor A. F. Schoeppel.
The purpose of this report was to provide analyses of the school salary situation for the use of all interested school officials. Intelligent planning of subsequent policy on school salaries is dependent upon evidence of the prevailing practice. To what extent the unusual number of emergency appointments to the teaching staffs has affected school salaries this year is not known. What is regarded by many competent persons as a crisis in public education to both number and quality of teachers employed continues to disturb school administrative bodies, for the restless and underpaid teacher situation is reported to be most acute in the Middlewest.
With school directories received from a total of 64 Kansas counties, this report presents an analysis of the salaries of teachers in rural, village, and first, second, and third class city elementary schools, and first, second, and third class city and rural high schools. The investigation was made with reference to the type of position, subjects of instruction, number of teachers in a particular field, the median salary per month of that particular group, and the middle fifty per cent of these salaries.
Georgia Weinrich, with orchestral accompaniment on the second piano by Jan Chiapusso, will close the program with the first movement of the piano "Concerto No. 2 in C Minor." (Rachmaninoff).
For All Occasions RIDE THE BUS
Five students in the School or Fine Arts will give a recital of violin and piano numbers at 3:30 Thursday afternoon in Fraser theater.

Kansas to Play War-Weakened Wildcats Tonight
The Kansas Jayhawk basketeers will journey up the Kaw tonight to take on the war-weakened Kansas State Wildcats in the 100th battle between the two state rivals in their long cage history.
Kansas has triumphed 68 times, and since the formation of the Big Six in 1929, has lost only five times while winning 38.
The Wildcats, coached by the youthful Cliff Rock, really gave the Jayhawks a battle here earlier in the season when they succumbed by only six points, 30 to 36, after giving the Allenmen a scare all the way.
Aggies Are Big Six Victoryless
However, since then the Aggies victoryless in Big Six play, have lost four of their original first five and have only Charles Cooley, Cunningham freshman, remaining. In losing Otto, Gish, Doyan, and Schwartz, Rock found the life blood of his team lost and virtually irreplaceable. Depending entirely on civilian material, the K-State mentor has all season been faced with losses to the services just when he thought he had a combination capable of going places.
The Mt. Oreadmen are top heavy favorites in tonight's contest. The expected victory will place the Kansas in a tie for third with the Missouri Tigers, each then with four triumphs and four losses. The big battle will come here Saturday night when the Jayhawks and Tigers fight it out for third place laurels behind Iowa State and Oklahoma.
< Eleven Players to Make Trip
Dr. Allen will again start Barrington and Moffett, at forwards, Sherwood at center, and McSpadden and Turner at guards. Stucker, Diehl, Lindquist, Frank, Dick, and Goehring will also make the trip.
Since the game is expected to be a replica of the Nebraska encounter last week when the Kansas forwards, Barrington and Moffett, often times worked in for under-the-basket shots, these two are expected to boost their individual scoring averages considerable in the Wildcat fray.
From the Sidelines By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
A report will be forlcoming concerning the transfer of certain V-12 gridders who were being counted on heavily to lead Crimson and Blue to a successful season next fall. In fact, unfortunately, three of the most outstanding returning lettermen are among those being shipped out to officer's schools and other V-12 college training units. Their names are being withheld, however, until they have successfully completed final tests and such transfer is made a certainty.
former Globe Trotter Entertained
In the curtain raiser preceding the Kansas-Nebraska contest at Lincoln Saturday night, the Lincoln army air base won in easy fashion over the base from Grand Island. Not so much the game itself, but rather the antics of Taggert, a former Harlem Globe Trotter, and now a soldier at the Lincoln A.A.B., entertained bystanders, which included the Kansas track and basketball squads.
The gangly Negro, his hands drooping to his ankles, amused everyone with such stunts as bouncing the ball on a rival's head and catching it on the other side on his way to the basket. On one occasion he lazily stopped, laid the ball on the floor, and casually tied his shoe; when an opponent dived for the ball, the lanky colored fellow scooped it up and was on his way. Another incident that won the crowd's laughs came when he thrust the ball into a rival's outstretched arms, only to snatch it back again before the puzzled adversary knew what was going on.
Students interested in the pre-nursing course may make appointments for tomorrow to talk with Miss Sara Patterson, superintendent of nurses at the University of Kansas hospital, Miss Veta B. Lear in the College office, has announced. Miss Patterson will be in the College office all day tomorrow to talk to women about the nursing course, and if they wish, to enroll them in it.

In the Phi Pi-Sbeta encounter last night which the Phi Pi's win 28 to 20. Leuhring took top scoring honors, with 13 counters, hitting all five of his free throws. He was given support by Pyle who hit for seven points, and Atkinson, Chestnut, Carl, and Fritz, all of whom netted one field goal apiece.
Phi Psi's Beat Beta's
Neither the Phi Psi's nor the Phi Delf's have lost a game this season. The latter team, the "B" League winners, seems to have the advantage on manpower and can boast a better balanced five. However, the "A" League titlists have in their big post man, Pyle, and in their scrappy little forward, Leuhring, two of the outstanding players in intramural play.
Coming through according to form, the respective intramural league winners, the Phi Psi's and the Phi Delt's, won their semi-final games last night from the runner-up teams and will meet at 7 tonight for the championship in Robinson gymnasium. The Beta's and Phi Gam's, last night's losers, will tangle at 8 in the consolation contest.
The half time score was 16 to 13,
Phi Psi.
Beta scorers were Roderick with seven, Mowery with six, Johnson with four, and Chase and Sifers with a free throw each.

Phi Psi to Play Phi Delt Tonight
The Fiji's, with more height than any of the four finalists, just couldn't hit the bucket and at halftime had scored only one field goal and two charity tosses while the Phi Delt's had piled up 13 counters.
Although the Phi Gam's no doubt were off on their basket shooting, the stout Phi Delt defense must be given much credit for the Fiji's were unable to work the ball in for effective shots. Should the Phi Delt's be able to stop Pyle's under-the-basket power tonight, and keep Leuhring from breaking away for set ups, the offensive power of Scott and Corder should be able to carry the "B" League winners home to victory.
Corder led the scoring for the victors with eight points, Scott was close behind with six, Hedrick and Harris aiding the cause with four each. Huebert, high scorer during the season, was held to one basket.
The loss prevented the Phi Gam's from repeating as intramural basketball champions, an honor they had captured the last three consecutive years.

Seniors to Hear Felix Morley At Graduation
Dr. Felix Morley, president of Haverford College, will be speaker at the mid-year commencement exercises for 161 seniors at 4 p.m. in Hoch auditorium Sunday afternoon. Morley, a brother of the celebrated literaturer, Christopher Morley, has a distinguished record as a newspaper man, stateman, and educator. Dr. Morley is the author of several books on political and economic subjects. As editor of the Washington Post he won the Pulitzer editorial prize for the outstanding editorial of the year.
Morley has served as a director of the League of Nations at Geneva, and as a member of the staff of the Brookings Institute. He is currently a director of the National Metropolitan bank of Washington. He has also served as a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, the American Council, the Institute of Pacific Relations, and the American Political Science Association.
Was Editor of Washington Post
During World War I, he did ambulance work for the British army and from 1917 to 1918 was engaged especial service for the United States department of labor. He was once a fellow of the Royal Economics Society of Great Britain. Preceding the time when he assumed the presidency of his alma mater in 1940 he was editor of the Washington Post.
The Navy V-12 program is the cause for the topsy-turvy arrangement by which the graduates will receive their diplomas before completing their final examinations, which will end on Feb. 28. The V-12's have received orders to leave which will allow no time for graduation after finals.
Seniors will receive four tickets when they get their caps and gowns in Robinson gym between 10 and 12 a.m. and 1 and 5 p.m., Saturday. Graduates may obtain additional tickets at the Chancellor's office. This is being done in an effort to give friends and relatives of graduates an opportunity to sit in the reserved section of the auditorium.
Procession to Begin at 3:30
Chancellor Deane W. Malott, Governor Andrew Schoeppel, Lester McCoy, chairman of the Board of Regents, the faculty, and the graduating seniors will march in the procession which will begin at 3:30 p.m. in Frank Strong hall Sunday afternoon. The faculty will be seated in the front of the auditorium opposite the graduates.
The traditional senior breakfast will be at 9 Sunday morning in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building, Jean Oyster, chairman of the breakfast committee, has announced.

'Club Foot' Limps Again After D. K.
Exhibit C in the case of the unknown "Club Foot Cutie," who has been giving Hill women the one o'clock jump by his screams and dragging steps, was received this morning by the Daily Kansan. It was a letter addressed to the editor—a warning to "lay off" the publicity.
Whether the letter was the real McCoy, or an imitator who has taken up the task, is not definitely certain. Words were formed by letters slipped from newspapers and magazines in much the same fashion as do the villins in the dime-a-dozen mystery thrillers. The warning reads, "Kansan: Quit! Lay off the publicity. This is the final warning! I'm not Kidding!" and signed, "The Club Foot Cutie."
The letter is a further expose into the nature of this saddist who carried his prank as far as using rationed catsup to simulate blood, along the walk from Gower drive to Lilac lane, the other night. The broken record along his trail, "No Love, No Nuthin'" might have lent a clue to his frustrated nature—except that it was dropped by a woman student who was in a big hurry to get through the grove. The big question is, who has time to pull all these stunts during and immediately preceding final week?
This morning Kappas received a letter from the "Club Foot Cutie" smelling strongly of ersatz, but more amiable than the one received at the "Shack." It was postmarked Lawrence, but return address was in care of the "Club Foot Cutie, Larned Institute, Larned, Kan." The enclosed poem read,
"Though my foot does drag
Though you look with scorn upon
my lag.
The echos of my screams
Will haunt your every dreams
Unless you'll be my Valentine.
The valentine element was a little late.
There are those who would like to see him six feet under. There are those who would merely like to see him. On the other hand, his noc (continued to page two)

38 V-12's to Go To Olathe Base As V-5 Trainees
Thirty-eight V-12 trainees stationed on the campus have been notified of their transfer to the V-5 unit at the Olathe Naval Air Base, Lt. A. H. Buhl, command officer of the University Naval units, announced today.
They are: Robert Aldridge, Billy Ray Albers, Clinton Ted Asman, Joseph Fred Bachman, Norman Eugene Ball, Charles Williams Banks, James Roscoe Baker, Myron DeWitt Brooks, Jr., Francis Darwin Burke, Robert Derland Ecoff, George Wayne Elder, Bert Milton Gensler, Carl Edward Goodhue, Harry Edward Gordon, William Francis Greer, Melvin Ray Hartley, Jr., Isaac Herbert Hoover, James Harvey Hosman, Jr., and Glen Arthur Jacobson.

Spradley, Jr., Eugene Elmer Swedberg, Adrian Gerald Tinnin, and Jack Bernard Zarnig.
The men have been assigned to Tarmac duty, which is general detail duty around the air station, while they await later assignment.
House Overrides President's Veto
Washington, (INS)—The House overruled President Roosevelt's veto of the new tax bill today in a defiant revolt marking the most serious administration split in New Deal history. The vote was 299 to 95. The two billion, 315 million dollar revenue rejected by the President as a relief measure "for the greedy" now goes to the senate where the house action is expected to be duplicated.
Washington, (INS)—Sen. Alben W. Barkley of Kentucky accepted re-election as majority leader of the senate today, breaking clean his ties with President Roosevelt. Barkley resigned as party leader at a caucus of Democratic leaders.
Washington, (INS)—Total American army casualties up to Feb. 7 were placed today by under-secretary of War Robert Patterson at 118,126 killed, wounded, missing, and prisoners of war.
Voting complete endorsement of Barkley's denouncement of President Roosevelt, his colleagues accepted his resignation and then reelected him. This vote of confidence in the Kentucky Senator after his clash with the President created Senate history.

U.S. Navy Bombs Mariana Islands
(International News Service)
Powerful units of the U. S. fleet operating almost unopposed in the waters that lap the fringes of the Japanese empire blasted away at targets only 1300 miles from Tokyo today and again issued a futile challenge to the Japanese navy to come out and fight. A brief communique from Adm. Chester W. Nimitz revealing that the two islands of the Mariana group had been blasted by strong forces of carrier-based bombing planes apparently told only part of the story.
The task force was the same which, only last week struck at the Japanese naval base of Truk in the Caroline islands.
Immobilization of the main garrisons in the Mariana islands group in itself would be a notable achievement but the obvious satisfaction among naval officers at Pearl Harbor and at Washington gave credit to the belief that more surprises can be anticipated. The bombardment of the two islands in the Mariana groups, one of the oldest settled regions in Oceania means that in the past three months the battleline in the Pacific has been moved 2500 miles to the west.
The only Japanese reaction to this daring thrust into the inner belt of Japan's defensive came from Adm. Takahashi, former commander of the combined fleet who had this to say: "When the enemy navy approaches further into Japan's defense line the Imperial navy is certain to deal the most coup de grace in the world's history"
Coincident with the Mariana attack, Adm. Nimitz announced capture of Parry island, last enemy hold-out in Eniwetok atoll of the Marshalls;
Plans Completed For Enrollment Registration
Complete plans for registration and enrollment for the spring semester call for registration of new students, both civilian and V-12, on Monday, March 6. and for the enrolment of all University students on Monday and Tuesday. March 6 and 7.
The only exceptions to that rule are pre-nursing students and V-12 pre-medical students, who are being enrolled now in the College office. Will Re 250 New Students
L. C. Woodruff, registrar, disclosed today that 50 applications from civilians have been received in the registration office, so that at least that number will be beginning University work the spring semester.
Some 200 V-12 men will come to the campus for the first time in March, to replace approximately that same number who are leaving. "In this way the quota of 450 pre-medical and engineering students will be approximately maintained," Lt. C.A. Michelman, assistant company commander, disclosed.
Monday, March 6
Of the 200 V-12's leaving at the close of this semester, some 30 will transfer to V-5, another 40 have completed their V-12 training here and are going to pre-medical or pre-midshipman schools elsewhere, and the remainder of the group have been screened or classified to various specialties in other V-12 schools or other lines of the service, Lt. Michelman said.

THE KANSAN COMMENTS
Changes Here End First Semester
Finals Started Today. The time inevitably comes during the year when these formidable exams catch up with us. We groan, study, decide ours is the hardest schedule, and count the days until finals are over. The exam schedule this semester is confusing due to the students in uniform on the campus, but it's best to grin and bear it, since we must bear it in any event.
What to Do Between Semesters. Those few days represent a long vacation to war-time students—a rest from the accelerated schedule, a chance to sleep, a chance to relax, and a welcome respite from pressing activities. No matter what is done between semesters, students will return with fresher minds and more enthusiasm for school.
Plans for Next Semester. Already students are poring over schedules of classes. Should I take this or that? Willing friends advise on professors, on the relative difficulty, or on the interest of courses. Time element is considered for the spring and early summer distractions from afternoon classes. We only hope the majority of students consider their field of interest and plans for the future.
Good-by to Many. By the end of the semester few army boys will remain. Many navy boys will go, and old faces will be missed. The turnover of students in the University is larger than ever before, but this turn-over is not necessarily drastic. It is only one indication that the United States is at war. We are lucky to have so few changes in our educational system.
Man's Past On Exhibit In Dyche
A case exhibit showing the family tree of man from the earliest groups of primates to modern man is now being prepared at Dyche museum. Dr. Claude W. Hibbard has announced.
The relationships of modern man and modern anthropoids to lower branches of primates will be depicted by a series of casts and reconstructions of skulls arranged according to periods in geological time. The recent skulls will include modern white man, Chinese, Australian black, and Hottentot and the modern anthropoids, gorilla, orangutan, gibbon, and chimpanzee. The earliest skulls of the exhibit will be those of a primitive primate and two primitive anthropoids. Trinil ape man will appear as the next closest related.
Man probably existed more than a million years ago. Dr. Hibbard said. Peking man is the oldest known man to exist. Others that came after him in the family tree are Pittdown, Heidelberg, Neanderthal, and Cro-Magnon man.
This exhibit has been planned since the time the museum opened in 1941, but because of the time and money needed to finish the case it has not been completed.
Mrs. Esther Ragle, a resident of Lawrence, will paint the background for the family tree. She has also donated a diorama on the shoveltusk mastodon, which she built completely, modeling and casting the figures of the animals, painting the background, and building the foreground.
In the same case with the family tree will be a skeleton of an early Indian found in Leavenworth county.
Rock Chalk Talk

And how did he know the color of her nightshirt? Jean Oyster, Chi Omega, worried all day the Fourteenth for fear Vance Elder would forget it was Valentine's Day, and, in addition, the anniversary of their engagement. It looked as though he had forgotten until long after dark—when a corsage of pink camellias arrived. Jean pinned them on her pink flannel nightshirt and went happily to bed.

It's a lucky thing for Charlie Moffett, Delt, that this isn't a good year for pinnings. The varsity basketball star had to smoke the third cigar of his lifetime when brother Joe Gray put out a pin, and, as usual, he passed out.

Gifts of $200 in merchandise will be auctioned off to bond buyers at the close of the Fourth War Loan bond drive under the sponsorship of the Lawrence theaters.
Theaters to Auction Gifts for Bond Drive
The auction will take place at 9 p.m. next Tuesday at the Jayhawker theater. Stan Schwahn, manager of the theaters, will conduct the auction assisted by MacGregor Muir, who has been in America the past 17 months with the British Supply Mission, and, who, as a magician, will inject a few tricks in his auctioneering. Mr. Schwahn believes this program will be unique in America.
The 1400 free tickets given by the Jayhawk theatre to bond purchasers represents a sale of $120,000 bonds which will be credited to Douglas county.
Students Will Speak In Victory Program
Richard Stutz, engineering freshman from Topeka, Russel Jay Atkinson, engineering junior from Kansas City; and Roberta Sue McCluggage, College junior from Topeka, will speak on March 7 at the Lutheran church as part of the Victory speakers program under the direction of E. C. Buehler, professor of speech.
Stutz will talk on "German Air Power," Atkinson has chosen as his topic "When Johnny Comes Marching Home," and Miss McCluggage will speak on "Medicine in Modern War."

Phi Delta Theta Dance Saturday Is Only Party Planned for Weekend
The one party that has been authorized for this weekend is a Phi Delt dance Saturday night. It will be in the Kansas room from 9 to 12 m. With finals this weekend and next week, it is not surprising that there are no more.

Machinist Mate Dies Of Scarlet Fever
The body of Robert William Young, machinist mate from Worcester, Mass., who died of scarlet fever at 6:15 p.m. Monday in Watkins Memorial hospital, was taken east for burial yesterday. This was the first death at the naval training station since it was established at the University July 1, 1942.
A fireman first class, Young was graduated from the training school Friday, and entered the hospital that evening unable to attend the graduation exercises.
F1-C Young is survived by his wife, Betty Young, also of Worcester, Mass., who was here Friday and left for her home as Young was to leave at once for overseas duty. He was believed out of danger when she left.
Twenty-one years old, he entered service in August, 1943, and reported for training at the University on October 28, 1943, from Newport, R. I. He was a member of the seventeenth division of the Machinist Mates training unit.
Alpha Chi Omega has announced the pinning of Faye Elledge, Business senior, to Pvt. E. J. Netzer; Jr., of the Army air corps.
Elledge-Netzer Pinning Announced
Pvt. Netzer was a student at the University last year. He is a member of Kappa Sigma fraternity.
Miss Elledge received an orchid corsage. Her roommates, Margaret Fesler and Betty Ann Hopkins, who assisted in the pinning ceremony, received corsages of red and white carnations. Mrs. W. W. Chochrane, housemother, had a gardenia corsage. The traditional candy was passed, and the house received a bouquet of spring flowers.
Miss Elledge is the daughter of Mrs. and Mrs. E. R. Elledge of Wichita. Pvt. Netzer is the son of Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Netzer of Lawrence.

Memorizing 500 speeches and 500 cues combine to make "Close Quarters," the two-character play to be presented Tuesday and Wednesday, March 7 and 8, one of the most difficult jobs of memorization in modern drama. Prof. and Mrs. Allen Crafton will star in the play by Somin which will ring curtain up at 8:15 pm. in Fraser theater.
Craftons Memorize 500 Speeches, Cues For Play Next Week
"The average play contains about one thousand speeches" commented Professor Crafton, "which are generally divided so that each actor averages between 100 and 150.
Few Characters Increase Work
"In 'Close Quarters' the two actors have to memorize about five times the usual amount. The parts of both Liesa and Gustav are, in this respect, more difficult than learning the lines of Hamlet. In most plays, two weeks is sufficient for the cast to memorize their parts. In this play, five weeks were necessary," he said.
The setting of the play is the flat of Gustav and Liesa Bergmann in a city in central Europe. The time
The Machinist's Mates split their twin bill in Lawrence league play last night, winning from the S.O.W. Ads. 37-31, and losing to the Irish Rascals. 46-29.
MM's Beat S.O.W., Lose to Irish Rascals
Koskela led the navy men in the scoring, counting 12 points against the S.O.W. team and 13 against the Rascals. Fore, with 14 points, led the S.O.W. team.
Hare, towering Indian, again led the Rascals in scoring with 11 points, seconded by Owen with 8, in their defeat of the MM. The Rascals were ahead at the half, 18-15.
The Ship's company will oppose the Rascals in the first game at the community building tonight, and the two S.O.W. teams, the Ads, and the Techs., will square off in the second game.
The Blanks will play a twin bill March 1, meeting both the Irish Rascals and the S.O.W. Techs. The following evening finds V-12 vs. Irish Rascals, and Blanks vs. MM.
of the play is the period between World Wars I and II, and the theme depicts the effect of a murder in the life of a middle-aged couple in the succeeding 36 hours.
Fickets Secured at Green
"No admission charge will be made to the play," said Professor Crafton, "but in order to know the size house we will have each night, tickets must be secured at the ticket office in the basement of Green hall on March 6.7.or8.
Students should present their activity tickets, either the winter or spring one, at the ticket office. Townpeople and others may also obtain tickets either by telephoning or going to the ticket office in Green hall," he urged.

Jayhawks Promise Better Showing At Big Six Indoor Meet Saturday
It will be a vastly different track and field team representing Kansas at Saturday night's Big Six indoor meet in Kansas City's Municipal Auditorium than has been the case in recent years.
Last year the Jayhawks brought up the rear with a mere four points, but this winter, with Ray Kanehl at the helm, the Kansas light clads have captured two meets with Kansas State, Missouri, and Nebraska as foes. The latter two finished first and second in that finished last year's Big Six event.
However, since the navy programs for the most part have accounted in the change of team strength, Kansas will probably find Iowa State and possibly Oklahoma of equal strength. The Cyclones, with eleven tracksters including such stars as Gast, hurdler and weight man, and Bliss, who placed fifth in the shot at the NCAA outdoor last spring, should pile up a good score.
Oklahoma, with only two lettermen back, will bring 15 men with Jones, dash man, and Heard, who is down for five events, as their chief threats. Missouri's Bussell should
Trophies to Be at Stake
The preliminaries will be run off at 2 p.m.
The feature events will be the half-mile and mile runs, with the winners being awarded the Bill Lyda memorial half-mile trophy and the Glenn Cunningham mile trophy.
The entries for Kansas will include in the mile—Hamilton, Shell, Yonally; 60—Richey, Sutton, Johnson; 440—Richey, Stewart, Oliver; high hurdles—Stannard, Patterson; 2 mile —Godfrey, Herrigstad; 880—Hawley, Provart; low hurdles—Stannard, Patterson, Lillibridge; pole vault—Morrow; high jump—Scofield, Lillibridge, Robison; shot put—Keller, Robison; broad jump—Lillibridge, Scofield, Johnson; mile relay (Stewart, Oliver, Stannard, Richey.)

KU Faces Tigers With Big-6 Tie Beating K-state
By handing a surprisingly tough K-State Wildcat team a 32 to 24 defeat at Manhattan last night, the Kansas Jayhawks moved into a third place tie with the Missouri Tigers, each team with a mark of four and four.
Thus Saturday night's Missouri-Kansas battle in Hoch auditorium will be far more than "just another game" for Allen's charges. Since the Jayhawks lost the Big Six opener to Collins, Pippen, & Co., at Columbia, 27 to 35, they must win either Saturday night's game with Missouri or the contest with the league-leading Iowa State Cyclones here the following Friday night to finish in a tie with the Missouriians for third place. Barrington High Scorer
Don Barrington carried the Kansas scoring load last night, scoring 18 points to make it 57 in the last three games. Other Jayhawk scorers were Stucker with four, Sherwood with three, Lindquist, McSpadden, and Moffett with two, and Diehl with one.
Cooley, the only remaining member of Coach Rock's original first five, led the Aggie scoring with 12 points. Jilka, Crist, and Findley gave support with two baskets each. K.U. Gets Early Lead
Kansas acquired a 7-point lead before K-State scored at the end of five minutes, and near the end of the first half held a 16 to 7 margin. Goals by Cooley and Findley, however, cut that advantage down to 18 to 12 at intermission.
The Jayhawks came back strong in the second half, running the count to 25 to 14 before the K-Staters beban matching goals.
Midshipman Course Shortened
The midshipman course at the Naval Academy at Annapolis has been reduced to three years until Aug.1, 1945.
From the Sidelines
By Bob Bock, Kansan Sports Editor
Another busy day it was for your sports editor with the varsity basketball game and Friday's track meet to cover, the intramural championships to describe, and Big Six and Intramural All-Stars to choose. But it was more than "just another day," for as soon as these final words are struck off it will be "30" for the duration for us: We're army air corps bound.
Pleasure, Indeed!
It has been nothing but pleasure to have been with you ever since the first Summer Session edition last May 25. In practicing up for the fall wars we found the long old summer produced nothing but an intramural cage league and spring football practice to write about. But since the pigskin season rolled around last fall we "never had a dull moment." Undoubtedly, the great 7 to 6 victory over Missouri Homecoming Day was the outstanding sports event of the year. As interesting to write about, however, was the "Frank Merriwell" finish the Jayhawks staged in the Warensburg game by pushing across two last quarter touchdowns and the extra point to win, 13 to 12. Then there was the thrilling Oklahoma basketball game here, although the Missouri and Iowa State games the next two weekends might rival it. We won't be around to tell you "our slants" on the games in the next issue, but we're sure you will find in our place one quite as capable.
